Norfolk Journal and Guide AS CAMPAIGN HITS ITS STRIDE RACE VOTERS DIVIDE SUPPORT IN THREE-CORNERED FIGHT 12 PAGES IN TWO PARTS VOL. XXIV No. 37 AS CA DIVID LEWIS TELLS WHY HE QUIT REPUBLICANS In Opening Salvo In Delaware Declares Party Has Never Attempted to Secure Rights of Race Since Hayes. VOTERS BORN SINCE WAR OF INDEPENDENT MIND William H. Lewis was born at Berkley, Norfolk, Va., in 1868, and his father was Baptist clergyman. He attended the public schools at Portsmouth, Va., the State Normal at Petersburgh, Va.; was graduated from Amherst College, class of 1892, where he was Captain of the football team and winner of two chief prizes in his senior year. From Amherst he went to Harvard Law School, where he completed the course in 1895 and started the practice of law. (Special to The Journal and Guide.) Wilmington, Del., Sept 12- More than five hundred persons assembled at the National theatre Thursday evening, to hear William H. Lewis, of Boston, tell the colored people of Wilmington why he was supporting John W. Davis for president. Mr. Lewis spoke in part as follows: "I welcome this opportunity. It is fitting that I should make my first address of the campaign in Wilmington where I have so often spoken as a Republican. You have the right to know the reason for the change. Wilmington at this time, politically speaking, is a city on a hill that cannot be hid. That the colored men in Delaware two years ago had written about in the newspapers and magazines throughout the country. The colored people of your state set an example for independent political action that is being talked of today more than ever. "It it is incumbent upon us to be all parties so that no matter that party wins we shall have to seat them. One of our best friends Charles Summer said, 'A desire to principle I call no party matter.' That will be my motto in the future. The ballot has been used in our hands as a protection and when a party fails to give that then we should have no more use for that party. REPUBLICAN PARTY HAS FAILED RACE "It has been more than half a century since the 14th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified and for that length of time we have been voting like sheep for the Republican party in failure and in success. Tonight I stand before you and declare that we have paid the Republican party all we owe it. Now they owe us. It was the colored people who furnished that party the issue that brought it into power. In 1876 the Republican party escaped the Negro in the South for the election of Hayes. Since then it has never attempted to secure us our rights. NEW ERA, NEW THOUGHT The Negro has made many mistakes through our loyalty to the Republican party. It was the war of our fathers. Boys and boys born since slavery are going orange. Instead of making politics, with our friends, we have looked on neighbors, we have looked on miles away for leader, we have heretofore done for the Democratic party the time is here when we should be friends with the Democrat: by dividing our votes show that we are like other peopleided to one party. We have come to the parting of ways. The Republican party do not want us excepting when election draws near but God in the South drove our people and today we hold the balances to perform. Oppress the South drove our people and today we hold the balances to perform. Virginia, New Jersey, New Ohio, Indiana and Illinois are we going do with this! We have tried the Republican party for fifty years why not the Democratic party? I ask to join with me for John W. this year. Mother Wants To Give Away Two Of Triplets Washington, D. C., Sept. 11—(P. N. S.); Edith Harley, 41 years old, pleased with Dr. R. C. Pearlman, who attended her during the birth of triplets, yesterday, at Columbia hospital, to take two of the children.

C., Sept. 12—Overcome by gas fumes and toppling from a bucket in which he was being drawn to the surface, Bud Richardson, a member of our group, fell back into a engine in digging near Spring Hope recently and sustained a broken neck.

COOLIDGE AND SLEMP 1985 "The hour has struck and with oncoln I say, 'I will go with any amus as long as he is right but he shall part with him when he's wrong."

DAVIS Only Interest Of Race In Presidential Campaign Centers Around Democratic Nominee Who Is Popular. NO ENTHUSIASM YET FOR REPUBLICAN TICKET Something of a revolutionary nature in politics is happening in Norfolk. The historic allegiance of colored voters to the Republican party, particularly in presidential elections, seems to have been broken, and instead of a gradual "warming up" to the G. O. P. that usually takes place at this stage of the campaign there is a well-directed movement constantly gathering increasing momentum in the interest of the candidacy of John W. Davis. Virginia belongs to the "Solid South" and is beyond a doubt safe for Davis, but it is apparent that he has numerous followers among the colored voters of Norfolk who intend to make it "safer." zA Davis-Bryan colored club has been organized and has considerable membership. Contrary to tradition and general expectation invitations to join are being received with sympathetic and cordial interest. A few are looking around carefully before jumping, others are hesitating, but to an observer it appears that if the deflection of the colored vote from the ranks of the Republican party is as it going to be in Norfolk, Mr. Davis is not the new president. A meeting of the Davis-Bryan club was held Monday night, when Messrs. Askew, Maynor and Scott, president, secretary and chairman of the finance committee respectively made scorching speeches in interest of the Democratic candidate. ```markdown ``` A prominent white Democrat was also present and addressed the club, holding out to those present the prospect of better business and living conditions in the vicinity in the event of Democratic success in November. He pointed out that under Republican rule the city would be the most activities of the Northern and Western coasts were humming, while the Norfolk yard is practically idle. He referred to Mr. Davis as a man who would do justice to all, regardless of race, color or creed.

From all indications, Booker T. Washington high school will have a strong aggregation, when the first whistle sounds opening the season here of pigskin competition. All candidates have been requested to report for initial work out, and the last over will be early start for the heavy season of campaigning. The 1923 eleven has suffered some losses including Captain "Bull Dog" West, but in spite of that, the last over will no doubt prove to be a good nucleus to form a strong squad around. The men lost through graduation are: West Willett, Diggs, Cornicks, Wilson and Bridgeford, who dropped out of school. The others who remained intact are equally as good as those who are lost. Cornicks will have difficulty in building up another good team. There are a number of prospects in the lower classes and they have signified their intentions of becoming candidates for berths on the squad. Evidently the rivalry will be very keen, even for the captain elect because the runners up for positions last season will again do the red and white. The attracted crowd will make it hot for old varsity players. The letter men, who will be in school this year are, Coble, the sturdy quarter and captain elect; Smith, who proved to be the best pivot position holder in the State last season, Teddy Boyd, end; the Two Diggs brothers, guard and tackle and Tynes, halfback. Owen Wilson, the coach, expressed himself as being well satisfied with the outlook of the coming season and he thinks that his squad will go thru with a clean slate. Wilson said he will have two elevenons on the field and he will go down in his bag and give the aggregation a lot of new stuff to uncheck. *OPENING GAME WITH N. A. C.* *OPENING GAME WITH N. A.

BERNARD FOUNDER The schools and colleges of the country are actively preparing for the coming football season and all indications and responsible predictions point to the most successful year in the history of athletics activities, especially among the members of the C. I. R. A. As September approaches its midway mark, the coaches, trainers, candidates, and fans are doing nothing but talking and thinking football. In a few days the campus dons will make themselves heard in rooting for favorite players, and in turn the players will make life pleasant for the students by the thudding of bids, the wheezing of straining players and exciting races between opposing players. The bark of the quarterback, the tenness evident during the struggle for supremacy will all have their place soon. How THEY LINE UP Hampton plays eight games, including every member of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association. On October 4th she tracks Durham State Normal for the first time. The complete schedule is as follows: October 4, Durham State Normal at Hampton; October 11, Va. Seminary and College at Hampton; October 18, St. Paul N. and L. Institute at Norfolk, Va.; October 25, Va. Normal and Industrial Institute at Petersburg; Lincoln University at Philadelphia, Pa.; Shaw University at Hampton; November 15, Howard University at Washington, D. C.; Thanksgiving, Va. Union University at Hampton. Hampton's record for the past season was good. She defeated Morgan College 14 to 6, St. Paul 7 to 6, Va. Norman 7 to 6, Lincoln 7 to 3, Shaw 6 to 1 and lost to Howard and Union in two close games. She awarded fourteen letters to the following men: Adee C. Butler, W. W. Cardoza, Theodore T. Coleman, David Gunn, Herbert Hardwick, Edward Hargrove, Bertrand Jacobs, James Jones, Oscar Pindle, Arthur Ruffin, Spencer Ruffin, James Taylor, W. D. Williams. In speaking of the coming season, Mr. Gideon E. Smith, coach and assistant physical director said: "The Ruffin brothers, Carson, Taylor, and T. T. Coleman are the members of the 1923" varsity squad that are not expected to return. We are expecting Sam Scott and Frye, two stars of the 1922 championship squad, back this fall. Scott will enter the College course and Frye will continue where he left off. Gunn will probably be back to take the college work. This will be his last year to take part in the football sport of the C. L. A. A. "The return of these old men and the possible chance of getting some good players from the last year's squad and the class teams boost the paper strength of the Hampton varsity. I am expecting a strong team than the one of last year. We shall miss the great players who have gone, but that will cause those who are left to work harder, and this should produce a winning team. "We have eight games on our schedule this fall, and each one is likely to be of championship caliber." Mr. Smith declared. ST. PAUL STRONG CONTENDER According to Mr. J. L. Whitehead, graduate manager of St. Paul, the prospects for a formidable gridiron machine at St. Paul --- ams and Bert Jacobs of Hampton's this season. Surpassing waits Fans All-American End ```markdown ``` Jimmie Jones of Hampton who is returning. next year are excellent. "In all probability we will lose two men from our last year's squad, Maddux and Parker, but these vacancies will be filled by players of excellent training, exceptional experience and demonstrated ability. St. Paul will enter the football arena on October 4th with the C. J. A. A. Championship as her main objective," continued Mr. Whitehead. In noting the record of St. Paul for the last four years is seen why she has been looked upon as so sighless a contender. In 1920 she won two games, tied one and lost three. In 1921 she won five games and lost two. In 1922 she won five and lost three, and in 1923 she won six, lost three, and tied one, scoring in the "two years 551 points to her opponent."

HOWARD UNDER NEW COACH Howard "Bison" hail the return of Coach W. E. Morrison as a sign of renewed spirit at Howard W. Howard's record last year was excellent. Though Donehy and Carter will be lost to the team, Captain Dokes expects to lead a powerful eleven against her chief rivals, Hampton and Lincoln. She plays the classic in Washington on Thanksgiving and Hampton on November 15, at Washington, St. Paul on October 11, at Washington, and Va. Normal on November 8, at Petersburg.

The coaching staff of Lincoln is confident that with Captain Crupdul at the helm, supported by Morgan, Lancaster, Breed, Goodman, Taylor, Lee, Pole, Callaway, Grassy and Wilson, a machine can be built which, from a team work and generalship, will be one of the most powerful organizations of fighters ever to represent the University. It is expected that Bill Taylor, Poe Wee Brown, Myers, Ward, Henry, Sean, Conyers, Hill and a number of other second string men will come into their own this year.

SATUDRAY, SEPTEMBER Lincoln-Union Norfolk's greatest athletic event of the year will be the staging of the Lincoln-Union Football long here on Monday, October 28 at the League Park. As both of these teams are members of the Big Five, compiling Hampton, Howard, Lincoln, Shaw and Union, this battle will be a deciding factor in the Inter-collegiate Championship. Although Norfolk is not a college town, for the past three years one or more intercollegiate matches have been pulled off here with appreciative attendances. The coming set-to between Lincoln and Union will in all probability evite the greatest interest ever around in a match here.

Coordinated to the Technical and Guided. From present indications th 1921 football season promises to be by far the most important that our colleges and sport loving public have ever enjoyed. First, there is a growing enthusiasm among students in all of our Negro colleges for the great outdoor sport. Then the Negro public has become really interested in the development of wholesome competition for the youth of the race. Thousands of Negroes who formerly thought of politics or horse racing as the principal diversion, today turn first to the sporting pages of the Negro papers to see how their favorite teams or individuals fared in the last contest. Many questions have been asked this summer regarding the chances of various teams and the prospects for the year. Already plans have been made by thousands to see some of the more important games of the season. Figures of C. I. A. A. games played last season show that more than 80,000 people were in attendance. This year bids fair to surprise the figures of last season by the thousands. Some of the college games are scheduled to be played this year in he large centers of population; those most talked of are the Hampton-St. Paul game, in Norfolk on October 18, at League Park; the Hampton-Lincoln game, in Phila, on November 1, at National League Park; the Union-Lincoln game, in Norfolk, on October 27; and the St. Paul-Lincoln game, in Baltimore, on November 8. The Howard-Lincoln game, the football classic of the season, will be played in Washington, at the American League Park. The Hampton-Union game will be played on Armstrong Field, Hampton, Va. The V. N. I. I. and Virginia Seminary game will be played at Petersburg, and the St. Paul and Durham State Normal, at Lawrenceville. Special effort is being made this year to handle the games in the most efficient manner. The officials available for the games will hold special conferences to study the rules. Last year not one thing occurred to mar any game in the Association. Both coaches and players are determined to live up to such a record, so that when the gun sounds on Thanksgiving Day, the same may be said of the season of 1921.

Hewson Deputy Clerk NORFOLK WILL GET TWO OF BIG TILTS Football enthusiasts in and near Norfolk are already eagerly awaiting the sound of the referee's whistle which will open the struggle between Hampton, the "Seasiders" and St. Paul, the "Tiger" on October 18, at League Park and the frenes between Union and Lincoln on October 28 in the same park. Mr. Chas. H. Williams, physical director of Hampton Institute, was in the city recently and completed plans for the staging of the game and the social festivities attached to it. The Norfolk management team on Lincoln game are working now to perfect plans for that game. In 1922 Union and Morehouse staged a wonderful struggle here and last season Lincoln and Shaw met. This year Norfolk fans are assured of 2 of the season's most colorful battles, both from a point of rivalry and real football. The St. Paul Lincoln and Union can put across is known to be of the best. Fans are reminded to keep the date of the first game in mind—October 18. FOOTBALL RULES CHANGED FOR SPEED Seconds mean much in a football game and, in its annual session the National Collegiate Football Rules Committee changed and added rules to the code of the gridiron in order to eliminate all unnecessary loss of time. Speeding up the play and encouraging teams to use running or passing attack in order to score the additional point after a touchdown are the main objectives of the body; if one is to judge from the rules which have been adopted for the season of 1924. There seems to be little, if any, room for improving the game along other lines. Four distinct rules were adopted tending to eliminate the loss of time. One, perhaps the most drastic adopted at the meeting, is the abolishment of mud and other teas for the purpose of raising the ball on the kick-off and on attempts at goals from placement. Another is the increased penalty, from two to five yards, against a team taking time out more than three time in each half. A third is the power given to the referee to order time out if a team appears to be stalling, and a fourth provides that the referee may refuse to take time out when a team appears to be delaying the game by rushing in substitutes or by other means. All these rules have been adopted primarily for the purpose of keeping the play in motion as much as possible. Time has been lost in the past by the scurrying around to gather mud for the building of the trees and often more precious seconds have been lost on a windy day by the ball's constantly being blown off the mounds. The increased penalty for taking more than the limited number of time-outs was adopted because teams in the past near the end of a game, have been guilty of stalling as long as possible, then taking time out and accepting the two-yard penalty, and then stalling again. In this way minutes have been used up without the risk of losing the ball. If a team appears to be taking more than the necessary length of time to call signals, get into position, and so forth, the referee now has the power to stop the watch. The fourth of these rules is to prevent teams from sending in substitutes toward the end of the game, thereby stopping the watch and getting lined up and having a play started before time is officially in again. The Rules Committee is making a determined effort to encourage teams in using running or passing attacks in order to score the extra point after touchdown and in that way bring the play up to a climax rather than an anti-climax of the scoring. In this effort the rule has been changed so that the line of scrimmage will be on the three instead of the five-yard line after a touchdown. With only three yards to gain in one play, it is highly probable that more attempts to score the extra point will be made from a running attack in the future. NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE Two Stars Who Play No More Donghey of Howard and "Whitwind" Johnson of Lincoln have played their last games for those schools. THE MISSING BOY The elimination of tees has forced the Rules Committee to move the kick-off up to midfield. This is only natural and it is not expected materially, to altar the game. With the ball kicked from the ground instead of from tees, it is estimated that approximately ten yards will be lost from the distance of the kicks, and the decreased distance which the ball travels will enable the ends and other linesmen to get as far into their opponents territory with the ball traveling at a lower trajectory. Altogether the changes are expected to work out for the betterment of the game and the rules have neared perfection when the committee finds so few things to alter in the code. DR. MCGRIFF WINS MEN'S SINGLES NET CHAMPIONSHIP DR. MCGRIFF WINS MEN'S SINGLES NET CHAMPIONSHIP Defeats Landy Taylor in a Hard Fought Match For Tidewater Championship and Journal and Guide Cup. Playing through to the finals in the form that has kept him among the ranking players of the country for years, Dr. J. L. McGriff of Portsmouth captured the mills situated behind Tidewater in the first open Tidewater Tournament held under the combined auspices of the Journal and Guide and the Tidewater Tennis Club, defending Landy Taylor in straight 6-3, 6-3, 7-5. In winning this event Dr. McGriff showed an allround ability that was brilliant and admirable and which won for him the championship and possession of the beautiful Journal and Guide Cup. The doubles advanced to the finals in one bracket and to the semi-finals in the lower bracket at the time this paper went to press. Complete results of the doubles competition will appear in next week's issue. Trophies will be presented to Junior and Senior winners at the club's dance Friday. McGriff proved that his game was the best in the first game, after trailing at 40-love, he picked up Taylor and finally won the game. From here he took the set, losing three games in the process. Taylor played a brilliant game thrush, but at times had to ease up on account of a soreness in his back. Dr. McGriff played with a steady brilliance in every part of the court, but his aggressive play was especially noteworthy. Taylor lobbed both forehand and backhand for passes and duced many games before finally falling before the championship and court generality of his opponent, now the Tidewater Champion. Both used excellent strategy in varying their strokes and tactics of attack. Toward the end of the match, in the third set, McGriff opened up attack and for a time it appeared that he would win by a wide margin, but Taylor rallied and forced McGriffii to his most scintillating tennis to win the set at 7-5. It was the general opinion that the playing of contestants in this tournament has been such that a bright future awaits Tidewater and especially Nortok and Portland in tennis. PASYR One of the most interesting first round matches was between B, W. Harris and McGriff, McGriff winning love sets, but only after spiritized playing. Other winners in the first round included Thomas Young Cliff Bailey, Watkins, Turner, Mason, Burke, Davis, Malm, Lamb and Faulks. McGriff went to the semi-finals by defeating Harris in the first round and Turner in the second round. McGriff and Faulks in a hard match "Jock" Watkins had advanced to the semi-finals by defeating W. T. Mason, Ottley, and Ward, getting two love sets in the process. One of the upsets of the tournament was the defeat of "Stumpy" Robinson by Hilton Faulks for the privilege of playing the semi-finals. Landy Taylor advanced to the semi-finals by drawing by in the first round defeating W. T. Mason, Hilton Faulks, and having Young Young default, in the third round. Young had to be out of the city. Defaults were made only in case of absolute non-appearance or if the late appearance of the player held up the playing of the matches. Players who took part in the singles include McGriff, Harris, T.

Lewis Tells Why He Quit The Republicans (Continued from Page One) against this vicious organization has been done by the Democrats. Mr. Davis came out against it but Mr. Coolidge has not said anything against it. SEES POLITICAL OPPORTUNITY "A great opportunity lies before the colored voter if he has the vision. The duty of the hour is to look forward not backward. The Democratic party realizes it cannot win in the pivotal states without the colored voter. If we support them they can then say to the Democratic party of the South we won with the colored voter, we must give him a part in the Government. Fortunately the Democratic party has given us a candidate for whom any colored man may vote for with honor, decency and pride. Born of Union parentage, since the war John W. Davis is the friend of our people. The colored people of West Virginia know him and know his family and swear by them. Mr. Davis stayed the rising tide against the colored people in the legislature of his native state. He fought the Oklahoma Grandfather Clause before the Supreme Court of the country and won, and he argued the peonage cases successfully before the same tribunal. His record on our race is better than that of any candidate that has come before us in recent years. We have reached a crisis, we are at the cross roads. Which shall we take—the one that leads forward or the one that leads backward? Frankly, I see no hope if Coolidge and Slemp are elected President. It will be four more years of stalling. I have burned my bridges behind me, and I have crossed the Rubicon. I want the vote of Delaware for John W. Davis, and with the help of God and the vote of Delaware for John W. Davis, and with the help of God and the votes of the colored people we will get it." News story tells of a couple being married "at sea." Most married couples are.

Great Hosts Of Baptists Pour Into Windy City (Continued from Page One) dent of the convention, sounded the gavel promptly at ten o'clock this morning, standard time. Long before this however, thousands had gathered in the spacious Eigh Regiment Armory where the convention proper is to be held. Men and women representing the Missionary Baptist faith from every state in the Union are here. A program replete with special numbers, and complete as to detail were circulated among the delegates as they arrived. The per sonnel of those to appear on the porgram showed a complete distribution of the high honors among men and women from the forty eight states in the Union. Dr. C. P. Madison of Norfolk, Va., the secretary, read the official program after Dr. Wood had declared the meeting in order and appointed the committee on finance and the committee on enrollment. First morning's session conducted by Dr. G. S. Wells of Hattiesburg, Miss., and Dr. J. B. Ridley of Nashville, Tenn., gave a religious fervor and coloring in the out-set, which the delegates here seem to feel will be maintained throughout the meeting. During the week the women will hold their auxiliary Convention at the Ebenezer Baptist Church, 45th and Vincinnes Ave., but the entire convention men and women, even though they were in separate bodies during the day, came together tonight to witness the Chicago Night and the Windy City's welcome. MASTER OF CEREMONIES Dr. Lucas Drane, pastor of the Friendship Baptist Church, this city was master of ceremonies. He presided with dignity and let the Baptists of the world see the big preparation and the splendid talent possessed here in the second largest city in the United States. The Mayor of the city gave the first welcome and delivered the keys. Following this, after the dignitaries had unlocked Chicago's gates of hospitality, the local committee lifted the same and admitted through their wonderful welcome, the host of Baptists that have gathered here. For five days their program of constructive effort that has been outlined since last February, will be put over. There will be a Bible Conference every morning; there will be devotions at each session and a sermon three times each day. Dr. Wood declared in the opening that it was his desire and his aim to have this convention specialize on the Psalmist David's wonderful declaration making it possible for each messenger and visitor to say, "I was glad when they said unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord." The various Boards of the convention thru their chairmen and secretaries will report during the week. Officers for the ensuing year will be elected. The theme however, for convention work will be Foreign Missions, Education, Church Extension, Baptist Young People's Union Work, Aged Ministers' Relief, Publication, Women's Auxiliary and evangelizing of the world with denominational leadership and influence.

Cincinnati, O., Sept. 11.—Several of the most prominent educational institutions of the Methodist Episcopal Church were awarded appropriations here at a recent meeting of the Board of Managers of the Board of Education for Negroes, as a result of recommendations by Secretaries, I. Garland Penn and R. J. Mavety. The Daytona-Cookman Collegiate Institute at Daytona, Fla., received one hundred thousand dollars for the erection of a Girls' Dormitory, a Vice President's residence and other improvements. This appropriation is made possible by the sale of the Cookman Institute Property in Jacksonville to the City Board of Education for public school purposes. The Daytona-Cookman Collegiate Institute now represents a valuation of half million dollars. Mrs. Mary McLood Bothune is President and Dr John C. Wright, former President of Edward Waters College, Jacksonville, Fla., is Vice President the new Girls' Dormitory will be named Cookman Hall. Clark University at Atlanta, Ga., receives large appropriations for complete renovation and repair of buildings, enlargement of faculty, science laboratories and library. Apartments are being prepared for several married teachers employed for the next scholastic year. The new president, Dr. M. S. Davage, a leading educator is at the helm, and is being given every help possible to advance the institution. Wiley College, Mashall, Texas, already in Class A, receives a new Girls' Dormitory to cost seventy-five thousand dollars, as a result of appropriations by friends and the Board. Following a trip made by Secretary I. Garland Penn and Dr. M. W. Dogan, to New York State, a recommendation of the Secretaries of the Board for the immediate erection of this dormitory was approved. Secretary Penn made a visit to George R. Smith College, Sedalin, Mo., recently and interested the Negro Methodist leaders of the General Missouri and Lincoln conferences in the purchase of fifteen acres of land immediate front- that they could not travel and get better acquainted. Yet how many people who are proud to live in the day of the great ocean liners ever actually rode on one? How many of those who talk easily about distant countries ever saw any country, but their own?

This was about to be sold to a Development Company for residential purposes. A sufficient amount was raised among the Negro Methodists to secure an option pending the consideration of the purchase of this property at a cost of $15,000, of which one thousand comes from a white philanthropist and one thousand from Negro Methodists. This marks a new day for George R. Smith and gives the institution one of the best athletic fields of any Negro institution in the country and likewise protects the environment of the school. Claflin College, Orangeburg, S.C., has been given a large appropriation for the complete remodeling of the Industrial Building into a Science Hall and other improvements in order to make larger science quarters. Secretary Penn stated to a reporter that every effort is to be made to secure Class A rating for every institution of the Church just as fast as the income of the Board will permit. Hitherto large appropriations have been made to Meharry, Wiley and Gammon and now that these are in Class A others would follow. Memorial Services; Portrait Unveiling Ozeanan, Va.—Memorial services and unveiling of a portrait of their late pastor, Rev. A. G. Bundy, were held Sunday, August 31, at Angel Visit Baptist Church here. The Young Woman's Relief Club, an auxiliary of the church, composed of members residing in Philadelphia, under its president, Mrs. Josephine Page, was in charge of the services. Mrs. Page presented and unveiled the portrait, after which Rev. C. M. Young, of Hustle, Va., a very able minister, who knew Rev. Bundy very intimately, preached the memorial sermon. Many of the older members of the church testified to the splendid life of the late Rev. Bundy. Charming music was rendered by Mrs. Page Smith, Mrs. Elnora Yates and Mrs. Josephine Page.

Each Subsequent Year; Act Indicates New Spirit of Self-Support of Institutions. Washington, D. C., Sept 10—What Howard University has come to mean in the life of its graduates is best expressed and evidenced by the act and words of Dr. L. Greeley Brown, of Elizabeth, N. J., one of its "sons" who has just commemorated the tenth anniversary of his graduation by insuring his life for $1,000.00, naming his Alma Mater as beneficiary. HOWARD TO BE REMEMBERED IN WILL In forwarding the policy to the Secretary-Treasurer of the University, Dr. Brown wrote: "I am enclosing an endowment life policy taken out by me for $1,000.00 with Howard as the beneficiary. It has been ten years since Howard conferred the degree of Doctor of Medicine on me. This policy will represent $100.00 for each year I have been out. It is my plan to provide in some way for Howard to have $100.00 for each year I am out, payable at the end of ten year periods. That is to say, that ten years from this date, should I be living, I shall send Howard my check for $1,000.00 and should I not live to see that date, my will will provide that Howard my check for $1,000.00 each year so represented.

C., Sept. 11.—(P. N. S.): A petition, alleged to bear the signatures of four million American Negroes, members of the U. N. I. A., of which Marcus Garvey is the nominal head, asking President Coolidge to aid in urging the transfer of American Negroes to Africa. The petition was presented by C. Emonel Carter, secretary general of the Garvey movement, accompanied by a group of six other members. It asked President Coolidge to submit to the next congress a message embodying the sentiment of the petition. The President is asked to aid in creating thru Liberia an open door for the reception of the Negroes from the United States. The petition attacks Dr. DuBois and Rev. Solomon Port Hood, alleging that these men have opposed the Garvey movement in its endeavors to find a foot hold in Liberia. It is claimed these men used their official positions, thru jealousy, to curtail the objectives of the Garvey movement, and to prejudice the Liberian government against the U. N. I. A. and its purposes. The memorial points out that the transfer of the American Negro to Africa will put an end to racial conflicts in this country due largely to the fact that the American Negro is making great strides in economic progress which naturally arouses the jealousy of the American whites, who may have been less fortunate in amassing Worldly goods. Leading American Negroes have begun to advise the President and government officials of the gross exaggeration of the membership claimed by the Garvey movement. It is claimed by some that the Garvey movement has less than 40,000 members, while some claim that it may probably reach a total membership of 400,000 composed mostly of the ignorant elements of the race, lead in various localities throughout the United States, mostly by unnaturalized West Indian Negroes, of which Garvey is said to be one. NEW YORK SUN ISANSWERED ON VILLARD'S TALK James Weldon Johnson Claims That Commander of Marines In Haiti Admitted the Slaying of 3,250 Haitians. New York City, Sept. 10—James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who made the first investigation and expose in 1920 of the American occupation of Haiti, today made public the text of a letter he had written to the New York Sun in reply to an editorial printed in that paper on August 28th, which attacked Oswald Garrison Villard for declaring before the Institute of Politics at Williamston, Mass., that "the blood of 3,000 Haitians slain by our American Marines " dishonors our good name." The Sun declares editorially that Mr. Villard was wrong in that only 1,132 Haitians were slain and further charged that these were bandits killed by the marines. Mr. Johnson out that Major1 General George Barnett, former Commander of the Marines in Haiti, admitted on October 23, 1920 that 3,250 Haitians were killed and that he further "regretted to report" that there "were many unlawful and indiscriminate killings." Mr. Johnson also pointed out that these slain Haitians were not bandits for they were fighting against the unlawful seizure of their country and further declared that "the America of 1776 would have called them patriots, not bandits."

Prominent Attorney Recipient of What Is Regarded As Second Highest Honor In State For Special Case. (Special to The Journal and Guide.) New York City.—Seipio A. Jones prominent colored attorney, of Little Rock, Ark., was elected as Special Chancellor in the Pulaski Chancery Court, Arkansas, the second highest honor in that State, on Saturday, August 30th, according to a telegram to Mr. William Pickens, made public today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. This is the first time in the history of the South, so far as is known, and possibly in the United States, that such an honor has been paid a Negro lawyer. Mr. Jones has had an eminently successful career as a member of the Arkansas bar, his outstanding achievement being the successful defense of the victims of the Phillips County, Arkansas Riots of October, 1919, in which cases Mr. Jones was the principal attorney of the N. A. A. C. P. These cases were fought doggedly by Mr. Jones thru all of the Arkansas courts with Mr. Moonfield Storey. These cases, it will be remembered, established a new precedent in American legal "On return to home and upon review of the many services and courtesies which made the convention of the National Medical Association at Hampton Institute a memorable success, I pause to send you this note, among my acknowledgments of appreciation, to commend your contribution of the Souvenir Program and of the service of your press for publicity." "The Souvenir Program maintained the standard of beauty and interest and will find a treasured space in company with its predecessors." Guide Quality PRINTING procedure in that the only decision gained in the United States Supreme Court acted not only as a reversal of the Arkansas Court but, in effect, was a reversal of the Supreme Court itself. In the case of Frank vs. Mangum, the famous Leo Frank Case, 237 U. S. 309, 335, the Supreme Court ruled that the federal court had not the right to interfere in a trial even though it was shown that the trial of an appellant was dominated by a mob. The decision in the Arkansas Cases gained thru the argument of Mr. Moorfield Storey, based on the splendid records in the Arkansas Courts, made by Mr. Jones, the Supreme Court ruled that even though a lower court has given the outward semblance of a trial, if it can be shown by an appellant that such lower court has spoiled terror by mob domination that but one verdict could have been rendered, then the federal courts are obligated to furnish corrective processes. Louis Marshall, of New York, one of the great American authorities on constitutional law, who was attorney for Leo Frank at the time of that decision, wrote the N. A. A. C. P.: "--- I regard it (the decision) as a great achievement in constitutional law. Due process of law now means not merely a right to be heard before a court, but that it must be before a court that is not paralyzed by mob domination."

Clothing And Hospital Garments Dispatched by American Red Cross For 2,000 Victims of Hurricane. Washington, D. C., Sept. 11. P. N. S.): Immediate shipment of clothing and hospital garments for more than 2,000 victims of the Virgin Islands hurricane last week was announced late Thursday by Red Cross resources. President Coolidge sent a message of sympathy to the stricken islanders earlier in the day. More than 100 casualties and other injuries caused grave problems. Approximately 300 houses of the poorer people were destroyed in the islands of St. Thomas and St. John, it added, pointing out that the United States navy administration is co-operating in the relief work and is making a survey of the rebuilding program. Material for reconstruction must be shipped from the United States; it says. "Calls for help from the refugees are increasing," Ed Boardman, collector of the Port at St. Thomas and head of the Red Cross there, reported in urging headquarters to rush relief.

MAKES $1000 LIFE POLICY TO HOWARD (Continued from Page Seven) "This is not to be considered a part of my pledge of $300.00 for the Medical Endowment Fund, since I shall handle that separate from this altogether. This pledge of mine for $100.00 each year is to be given as a token of appreciation for Howard and for the love I have for the institution. I am sending this policy by registered mail, protecting it against loss. The premium on this policy has been paid for the next year, and will be paid annually as long as I am alive." THE SPIRIT OF SELF-HELP The spirit of self-help in connection with the support and development of Howard University as exhibited by its graduates and former students throughout the country is one of the proud traditions of this great school. To those who remember the important part which graduates and friends of Howard played in helping the school to meet the terms of the General Education Board's conditional offer of $250,000.00 for the endowment of the School of Medicine, this gift of Dr. Brown's is simply additional evidence of the fact that the colored people of the United States are determined to support their own institutions. This is the second colored physician to insure his life in favor of Howard University, Dr. John A. Kenney, now of Newark, N. J., having been the first.

WRT, the radiophone station of the Southern Radio Corporation, put it on the air for Canada by special request from the Toronto Chamber of Commerce, and over mountains and rivers it was wafted straight to the ears of the waiting people in far away Canada. Genuine Southern melody, and it must have been enjoyed for it sounded good in the studio.

The report of the delegates sent to the quadrennial meeting in Brooklyn was very interesting, telling how Virginia's work was leading and how they took the banner for Virginia, for moneys raised for all purposes during these four years—$27,650.00.

Education may not make opportunities, but it helps greatly the man or woman to discover those already made by the shortsightedness of others. Dr. Bowling's swiping of "intellectual dishonesty" is timely. There is too much of it abroad in the land. If every person and her daughter would search their intellectuals for an honest creature would they be as astonished at what they should find as Joseph brethren were when they searched their corsacks and found the purchase money in their instead of in Pharoah's strong box? Perhaps Dr. Julia P. H. Coleman, who is well known in Tidewater Virginia as a business woman with hustling qualities, has moved herself and her chemical business to New York City, to the only Harlem, and they seem to prosper in the transplantation. Anyhow, Dr. Coleman is making the campaign for nomination of the Republican ticket for Assemblywoman in the Nineteenth District. She is running as an independent, and some say she stands to win in the primary voting. Perhaps. She has the nerve and pep, win or lose, and the racks needs that sort of snap.

Virginia Building Schools Admittedly the State of Virginia has a long way to go to catch up in the pace set by North Carolina in the matter of Negro education, but the report of Dr. W. T. Sanger secretary of the board of education, that 4 schools and two additions were built during the year 1923-24 for colored children ind Admittedly the State of Virginia has a long way to go to catch up in the pace set by North Carolina in the matter of Negro education, but the report of Dr. W. T. Sanger, secretary of the board of education, that 49 schools and two additions were built during the year 1923-24 for colored children indicates that the Old Dominion has struck a stride in education which promises no let up. Another encouraging phase of the State's educational situation is the statement of Mr. Rosewell Page, second auditor of public accounts, that Virginia's literary fund investment account has passed the five million dollar mark and that it will ultimately reach great proportions. Interest from this account is applied to the public school system, and the law permits the principal to be loaned for school building. On this statement confidence can be based that more and better schools are in immediate prospect. In spite of many disadvantages, the race in the South has no reason to despair for "there is a Divinity which shapes our ends." And for our group the ends are being shaped in a manner that must give heart of hope. Virgin Island Commission's Report The report of the Federal Commission appointed by the Secretary of Labor to investigate industrial and economic conditions in the Virgin Islands, which we have finally had an opportunity to peruse, contains a wealth of information on the life of the Islanders, their moral, economic and literary status, so arranged and written that it makes absorbing interesting reading for the public as well as pointing out for official consideration the precise difficulties with which the natives are beset and making recommendations for their amelioration. The report admits that age-old customs of living and outworn methods of doing things have had their part in bringing about the appalling economic and low moral conditions of the people of the Virgin Islands, but it brings out clearly that the cold hand of indifference, neglect and forgetfulness of the United States since its acquisition of the islands, coupled with the extension of prohibition regulations to its insular possessions, is at the throat of these people, steadily relied upon to a point of starvation. The administration made a commendable approach to bringing order out of economic chaos in its most newly acquired island possessions by sending there a fact finding commission. The commission has performed high service in digging out the facts and presenting them in an easily understandable manner for public information and official consideration, making recommendations that appear to hold but genuine hope of bringing about the needed reforms. It is up to the next Congress to crown the good work begun by enacting legislation appropriate to the needs of the Islands as disclosed by the commission. Editorial Page of Humanizing Labor The Norfolk and Western Magazine, an interesting and mechanically excellent monthly publication devoted to the interests of the company's 30,000 active and retired employees, which has come to our desk regularly for several months, is a medium that must certainly inspire helpfulness and co-operation between employer and employee and very naturally render a public service. The Norfolk and Western Magazine, and insting and mechanically excellent month publication devoted to the interests of the company's 30,000 active and retired employees has come to our desk regularly for six months, is a medium that must certainire helpfulness and co-operation between employer and employee and very natured under a public service. Every employee deserving of it gets personal mention and his picture in the magazine rather he be section laborer or department executive. Mention is made of the illness, sons and going and comings of employee members of their families. In fact, dedication evidences a personal interest in workmen by the company heads. Only this is a fine improvement over the attitude of aloofness, distrust and grudge when employer and employee, and it is active antidote for socialistic and communal tendencies among labor. The Norfolk Eastern Railroad Company is taking a hard spirit of humanizing labor in a manner dignifies it and makes a laborer respectful and proud of his employer. Every employee deserving of it gets personal mention and his picture in the magazine whether he be section laborer or departmental executive. Mention is made of the illness, vacations and going and comings of employees and members of their families. In fact, the publication evidences a personal interest in the workmen by the company heads. Certainly this is a fine improvement over the old attitude of aloofness, distrust and grudge between employer and employee, and it is an effective antidote for socialistic and communistic tendencies among labor. The Norfolk and Western Railroad Company is taking a lead in the spirit of humanizing labor in a manner that dignifies it and makes a laborer respectable and proud of his employer. Young Men's Opportunity A few weeks ago the young white men city organized a Junior Chamber of Commerce.

Juniors are buried in a sea of lethargy, new leadership is in order. A few weeks ago the young white men of the city organized a Junior Chamber of Commerce. The spirit of this organization, as we understand it, will be to foster community building among the junior citizens. For young men to catch the faith in their city and the zeal to work for it in their youth when the probabilities for rendering years of useful service are so bright, certainly bespeaks inevitable greatness for Norfolk. It would be somewhat amiss to urge similar organization among the young men of our group, for the regrettable fact that we have yet to form a live and functioning Senior Chamber of Commerce. But it is not amiss to urge that our young men take more interest in community problems as they concern our group particularly and the city generally. It is not enough that an individual purchase a home for his family, properly rear and educate his children and pay his church and lodge dues. He has obligations to his community that can be met only by his taking a view of and interest in things beyond the confines of his self-interest and home circle. A leadership of young men, politically, morally and economically aggressive will find here an opportunity to serve its race and this community immeasurably. Let the young men get together and put things over. The Seniors are buried in a sea of lethargy, and a new leadership is in order. Shortage of Mechanics The city employment bureau reports, and for skilled mechanics here at presidents greater than the supply. Similar courses appear to prevail in other sections of country. Of course, time and events have alreadyoved the wisdom of Booker T. Washington's philosophy; the soundness of his system of industrial education, yet when we hear of national shortage of skilled mechanics or unprecedented high wages, it is interestful how Mr. Washington was abused by culed by other high lights of the race to preachments. Particularly is this the men we observe all about us men having out a living in the most menial occupations, who could have and should have the mechanics. The demand for skilled labor that is bound around the world during and has hard since the World War, and the also universal system of vocational education is sprung up in the public schools in rectors should serve to stop the vaporings,agonists of industrial training for men to come and permit those schools'encies which are striving to train our youth the essentials of earning a decent and housing to operate without their banefulence.

Of course, time and events have already proved the wisdom of Booker T. Washington's philosophy; the soundness of his system of industrial education, yet when we hear of a national shortage of skilled mechanics even at unprecedented high wages, it is interesting to recall how Mr. Washington was abused and ridiculed by other high lights of the race for his preachments. Particularly is this true when we observe all about us men barely eking out a living in the most menial occupations, who could have and should have been mechanics. The demand for skilled labor that resounded around the world during and has been heard since the World War, and the almost universal system of vocational education that has sprung up in the public schools in recent years should serve to stop the vaporings of antagonists of industrial training for all time to come and permit those schools and agencies which are striving to train our youth in the essentials of earning a decent and honest living to operate without their baneful influence. We Need More Men Like Julius Rosenwald We do not stop to think splendid that is for a race or a country to have some great people of affairs who are yet intensely interested in the unfortunate, the needy, the king, who appear to be hedged about advances to their efforts to accomplish something worth while in living. It is reasons imagine that such people have their hand of their personal business, with some to give to the business of others, and they have, and the wonder is that they need to sympathize with and aid those fortunate than themselves. We do not stop to think what splendid thing it is for a race or a country to have some great big people of affairs who are yet intensely interested in the unfortunate, the needy, the aspiring, who appear to be hedged about by hindrances to their efforts to accomplish something worth while in living. It is reasonable to imagine that such people have their hands full of their personal business, with small time to give to the business of others, and so they have, and the wonder is that they take time to sympathize with and aid those less fortunate than themselves. "For the Cause that needs assistance For the future in the distance, And the good that we may do." What a noble philosophy is that. It means humanity from the sordid cupidity to takes for heastiality, the hardness that grips life out of the weakling that the strife have more to hear or to squanderous living, so much of which we have walks of life, and which is bound by tastes of race, creed or nativity. What a noble philosophy is that. It redeems humanity from the sordid cupidity that makes for beastiality, the hardness that grinds the life out of the weakling that the strong may have more to hoard or to squander in riotous living, so much of which we have in all walks of life, and which is bound by no lines of race, creed or nativity. No man in the country is busier with his own business than Julius Rosenwald of Sears, Reebuck and Co., of Chicago, one of the largest mail order houses in the world, and no man in the country is more active in works of benevolence and charity than he. The help he has extended to the work of Negro education, the sympathy and support he gave Dr. Washington and others, and is now giving, marks him out as an exceptional man, many of whom we have had in our educational work, whom we cannot too highly appreciate in their lifetime and commemorate in their death. REVIEW And COMMENT BY WILLIAM BRITTON President Disturbed President Coolidge sees socialistic and communistic elements threatening the stability of our government thru what he believes on unwar- The following news dispatch shows the sort of Abou Ben Adhem spirit that appears to be a part of the life of Mr. Rosenwald: Sammy Rzeczewski, twelve year-old chess prodigy of Detroit, four years ago easily defeated Julius Rosenwald, Chicago millionaire philanthropist, in a game of chess at the latter's home here. It is now apparent that those few moves may prove the most important the tiny genius ever made. Mr. Rosenwald is making arrangements to take over the direction of his education and to bring him to Chicago. Rabbi Saul Silber, President of the Hebrew Theological College, Chicago, believes the chess marvel holds great promise as a Hebrew theologian, and if Sammy agrees, Mr. Rosenwald plans to enter him in the Chicago College, paying all his expenses. So it goes. We need men like Julius Rosenwald. He has helped to build many mode school houses for the race in the South, ever as the late Andrew Carnegie helped to build many libraries, and he has in other ways done much to influence others to help "the cause that needs assistance." We need not despair of the race, we need not despair of the Nation as long as it can produce such big mindes men as Julius Rosenwald. So it goes. We need men like Julius Rosenwald. He has helped to build many modern school houses for the race in the South, even as the late Andrew Carnegie helped to build many libraries, and he has in other ways done much to influence others to help "the cause that needs assistance." We need not despair of the race, we need not despair of the Nation as long as it can produce such big minded men as Julius Rosenwald. Crazy About the English Prince The American people are not snobs but they have too large a smattering of snobbery. They are good democrats, who disdain titles of nobility, when they are not bad ones that makeools over them. The society people, the selected few of them, make a show of themselves in their worship of titles of nobility and those who have them. But they are not the American people, the sober sided majority, who do not go off their stride about anything but weigh all things and all measures and persons according to their actual values. The notice which the American newspaper have taken of the presence of the Prince of Wales in the country, and the minute chronicle of what he says and does, with man-made slaps which border on the immoral and scandalous, is not at all creditable to American journalism, or that section of it which matters to the sickly sentimentalists. The Afro-American people also have a real prince among them. The Prince of Dahomey has been in the country some weeks, and he has been well received. He is a quiet gentleman, a polished Frenchman, a barrister at law before the French courts. But the newspaper of the country have not followed him from his rising in the morning to his going to bed in the morning, a thing which the heir to the British throne appears to be strong on, but he is a prince all the same, and a gentleman of the quiet sort who did not despair when his throne was taken from his dynasty but buckled to the hard work of showing that he was royal in fact, as well as in name. Not every European prince in misfortune has been able to do that. In the last analysis, royals are royal does. There is nothing higher in modern life than a plain person, a citizen of the United States and of the state in which he resides. When you find an American who does not think that way, you find an American who is not one hundred per cent American at all but a dangerous stranger in American democracy who should be fired out and kept out of the country.

REVIEW And COMMENT REVIEW And COMMENT BY WILLIAM BRITTON President Disturbed President Coolidge sees socialistic and communistic elements threatening the stability of our government thru what he believes on unwarranted attack upon the Supreme Court and calls upon the American people to resist every encroachment upon the power of this tribunal which he characterizes as the greatest contribution America has made to the science of government, according to his Lafayette Monument unveiling sneech. Altho there is a small body of students of government who believe that a modification of the Supreme Court's power to nullify an act of Congress by a single majority would strengthen instead of weaken our system of government, an idea which thru a close analysis reveals that it merits deep consideration, the great American people are ready to and will resist all radical attempts to undermine this bulwark of the people's rights. On this score the President need not be perturbed. The cry of communists and bolshevists destroying the government has been heard before. Under the administration of the lamented President Wilson, one A. Mitchell Palmer, then, Attorney General of the United States, became obsessed with a similar delusion which now seems to upset President Coolidge. Mr. Palmer set out to save America from its fancied enemies under its own flag and raised a hullabaloo about communism and bolshevism, which ended in nothing and America goes on to more greatness, while the radicals are forgotten. But the peculiar thing about President Coolidge's ability to perceive elements destroy fundamentals of our republican form of government is that his vision or mental grasp apparently fails to take in the Ku Klux Klan. Certainly this organization is making far greater headway than the Communists, and I am informed that its principles are more subversive of the ideals of our government than all the other organizations that have raised (A. M. E. PRESS SERVICE.) Negroes In Who's Who In Armenia The 1924-25 edition of Who's Who in America, is out. There are 25,356 biographies of which number 44 are Negroes. It is interesting to note that the number of Negroes in this book is increasing. Because no statement as to color or race is made, some names may have been missed. However, among those deemed worthy to be listed in this "biographical dictionary of notable living men and women of the United States" whom we have been able to check up are the following distinguished men of color: C. E. Bentley, dentist; Dr. J. W. E. Bowen, theologian; W. S. Braithwaite, poet; B. G. Brawley, author; John E. Bruce, educator; Bishop J. S. Caldwell, A. M. E. Zion; C. S. Chestnut, writer; W. H.

Maybe the President is so busy watching the radicals whose years of yelping we have very well withstood that he cannot see that other menace whose destructive influence threatens to enter every nook and corner of our country. DIALECT (From Opportunity Magazine.) It is expected that those who with such abundant confidence feel that they know the Negro, his ways, his thoughts and his speech, should passionately defend their representations of him for the great untouched and unsuspecting Political Chaos The National political conventions have been over since the hot days. The campaigns are under way, but the general situation is no less complicated than it was two months ago. Political seers are confused and the voters are confounded. What will the farmer do? How about the klan influence? The Negro vote has seen a manifold increase in the past four years as the result of migration. Where does this vote stand? These are the questions which throw political calculating machinery out of gear, and which have so far made the outcome of the elections purely a matter of guess. The Republican party has gone before the country on Coolidge and Coolidge alone. At present it appears to have nothing else to sell the American voters, and peculiarly, it seems not to seek any other sales product or talk. The record of the party for the past four years is not one characterized to allure the voters, yet, in spite of its vulnerability, the Democrats have made small headway in using it to counteract the Coolidge grip. The fact is, the masses have long since learned that there is little to choose between the two major parties. Corruption in government may be unearthied against a Republican administration, but the Democrats are seldom less culpable. A change in men holds out as sure a cure for government filth as a change in administrations, in so far as the voters see, and the death of President Harding has already changed men in the White House. Probably the most interesting development of this campaign so far, is the inroads, or apparently so, the third party is making on both old parties and in winning favor among the colored voters. However, all is guess so far. Something or anything may happen before November to give either party the "killing." D. Chapple, Bishop A. M. E. Church; Wm. A. Fountain, Bishop A. M. E. Church; Geo. C.

One of the unique features of "Who's Who in America" is that there are three persons in the same family who are listed, Major R. R. Wright, Sr., president of the 'Citizens' and Southern Bank of Philadelphia, his son, Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr., editor of the Christian Recorder, and Dr. W. H. Crogman, former president of Clark University, who is the father-in-law of Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr., and was a classmate of Major Wright, Sr., in the class of 1876 from Atlanta University. All three live in Philadelphia. Another is of two brothers, Jas. Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., and his brother, J. Rosemond Johnson, one of the leading American musicians and composers. BELLS MILL Bells Mill, Va. —Services at Lee's Chapel A. M. E. Church were largely attended.

Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 12—(A. N. P.) Among the six candidates filing petitions for the state Assembly there are two Republicans, one of whom is Mrs. Margaret Edwards, a prominent colored woman. (From Opportunity Magazine.) It is expected that those who with such abundant confidence feel that they know the Negro, his ways, his thoughts and his speech, should passionately defend their representations of him for the great untouched and unsuspecting public. But even at the risk of disturbing an old sacred arrogance and of challenging the sweet serenity with which they pocket the checks for their Negro stories now in vogue, it ought to be pointed out that the creatures of their pen aside from being quite gratuitously insulting to Negroes, are as impossible as they are ridiculous. The caricatures of words and ideas which are now paraded as Negro dialect do not pretend to be the simple speech of illiterate Negroes — dialect with a natural and reasonable growth, but the incongruous effect of education on rather hopeless subjects. And as dialect may represent the character of the folk employing it, so pseudo-dialect misrepresents the folk it is alleged to depict. There are legitimate uses for Negro dialect. Its haunting mellowness opens into the very heart of the romantic old South. It is rich with the broken pathos and gentle humor of a race and a social order passing slowly but inevitably into the chambers of memory. It has a place in Southern literature and it deserves to be rescued from the hands of both the ignorant and wanton exploiters. Mr. Edgar P. Billups of North Carolina, a student of this dialect writing in The Texas Review, laments the exploitation with a fervor which could scarcely have been excelled by one of the members of the offended race. "There has been such a popular demand for Negro stories that pseudo-dialect writers, taking advantage of the demand and usurping the field, have sent forth impressions of Negro character which are utterly false, and the always unsuspecting public has accepted the false for the genuine; since the false have had such a wide-spread circulation, the public has been wrongly educated. This incorrect education unless soon checked will become both universal and permanent." As a matter of fact it has perhaps never been realized that there is no such thing as a general Negro dialect. The first and most widely accepted forms preserved in writing are Joel Chandler Harris' Uncle Remus stories. But South Carolinians, whose dialect is of different growth, assert that Uncle Remus is so stupid that they cannot read it. Virginia Negro dialect is distinct from that of Georgia and confined to a relatively small portion of the state. There was a time when every large plantation in Louisiana had its individual dialect. Harris in his introduction to Uncle Remus admits that the dialect of the rice plantation is different from his. There is a Creole dialect more French than English and there is an Island dialect which pretty successfully defies any sort of classification. The basis of the real Negro dialect, as pointed out by Professor George Philip Krapp in the June issue of the American Mercury and over twenty years earlier by Annie Weston Whitney, is almost entirely classic. Language is primarily a test of social contact, while pronunciation and usage depend entirely upon social intimacy. The Negro has been the conservator of those very forms of English from which present usages have grown. Forming his speech from the language of the Colonists who brought with them to this country a wealth of classic literature, he has simply retained it and passed it on phonetically in his social isolation until it has taken on a distinction which is called his own. This is borne out strangely enough by the classic literature. The Duke of Somerset in Henry VI used mought for might, and in the same drama the Duke of Clarence declares: "I will not ruinate his daughter." In the Merry Wives of Windsor there is 'eman for woman, and Prospero in the Tempest declares he was "blessedly holp hither" just as the illiterate Negro asks for holp when he wants help. Handkercher is found in all of Shakespeare's plays except (strangely enough) Othello. Iago would yerk Brabantio under the ribs, and calls Roderigo and Beanco "poor trash." The double comparative and double superlative are almost exclusively classic. "The most unkindest cut of all." "More sharper than your words." "Most heaviest." Moe for more belongs to the 16th Century. Hit for it is Anglo-Saxon. Chaucer uses axe The Carlsbad Cavern in New Mexico contains a single vast apartment, known as the Big Room, more than a mile in length and many hundreds of feet in width, while its height in places exceeds 200 feet This is only one of a multitude of astounding features in the new National Monument. Its name is taken from a small town a few miles distant from the cave. Tahiti, the most delightful of all South Sea islands is a place where jobs cannot be found. The Tahitians are the best sports in the South Seas. Most of them like to stay up until 3 o'clock in the morning. Of the 1,843,000,000 inhabitants of the globe about 600,000,000 speak the principal European languages, of which English has the largest number of adherents. The average time in smoking a cigarette is seven minutes. A cigar will, if properly smoked, last from twenty-three to thirty-five minutes. The French are wearing better shoes since the war but they are not so particular regarding the fit and the quality as the average American. Electric lighting is unknown to many people of Canton, China, and vicinity. Paratoloulsulfochloramid-sodium is a bleaching powder recently introduced in Germany. India had its first wireless concerts last April. Men wear their hair long and women cut theirs short and dye it an auburn tint in the Samoan Islands. The slaves in the British West Indies were freed in 1839, and those in Brazil, South America in 1888. The first colored Y. M. C. A. was organized in Washington, D.

In Professor Krapp's interesting contribution to this subject there are included several most pertinent examples. The Negro's watermilion for watermelon was common English usage everywhere in America as late as the first quarter of the 19th Century. *Drap for drop* was good Yankee usage a hundred years ago. I is, you is, they is are on record in the Northern dialect of English of the 13th Century. Even the Negro's gwine for goong is good archaic American English of the same class of the old pronunciation *Burgwyne* for the family named Burgwyne. Compare these forms when uneniably Negro dialect with Mr. Cohen's "you is excruciatin me with your disabilities" or "elucidate to me you ain't dead;" his "funnygraph," "eatments," "cornsider," "sptuferous" and the trick is evident. They are exclusively his own notion of humor. The objection repeatedly made that Negroes do not speak this vapid nonsense can only be given point by the evident fact that they have neither need nor reason to speak it. It is well to remember that the dialect of the Negro with all of its peculiarities is nothing more than the lingo of the classes lowest down without education and with little contact with the usages of polite society. The same degree of backwardness may be found among the poor mountain whites between whom and the Negroes there has never been any association, and similar peculiarities, though not in the same degree, may be found among the cultured whites of the same locality. This disparity is being bridged by education, but the slow processes of this method cannot compete with the merry spread of these false characterizations.
