Lynchburg, Va., Sept 27—At three o'clock the sharp the threatening clouds had blown away and Sol distantly peeping through the mist gave approval for the opening game of the great American sport. The ground was heavy, a slight breeze stirred the grass when suddenly the silence was pierced by a shrill whistle which started the great football season in C. I. A. A. Charlottesville kicked to Seminary, Capt. Lanier made the first fumble of the season and the only one of the game. Charlottesville recovered and was held for downs. Seminary took the ball on her thirty yard line and made a slow but steady march for her initial touchdown. Charlottesville played a stronger game than the score would indicate; broke up seven of Seminary's attempted forward passes, but could not withstand the heavy consistent bombarding of Capt. Lanier and Governor Brown, nor could she stop the sweeping end runs of Holland, Perry and Edley. While not flashy, Winfield was there in center, holding his own, making one bad pass. Tucker, Scott, McCoyand Polk played fine defensive games. Much credit must be given to the sterling playing of Jesse "Poodle" Williams, quarterback. Though he seldom ran with the ball, he was there when it came to running back punts. Scott, diminutive end, was the most aggressive player of the team. Moore, playing end for Charlotteville, was the great gun for that team. Time and again he smashed through interference and brought down his man. Jones, punter, was a great aid to his team, averaging 50 yards for the SEMINARY Scott R. E Polk R. T Tucker R. G Winfield C Quarles L. G Bickerstaff L. T Sledd L. E Williams Q. B Lanier F. B Brown H.

Poet: "I am accepting contributions for a new poet's hospital." Editor: "All right, old sox. Drive around your ambulance tomorrow and I'll have two poets for you." A man is never older than he feels, declared the ancient beau, bravely. Now I feel as fresh as a two-year-old. Horse or egg? asked the sweet young thing brightly. Many a man relies too much upon his wishbone and not enough upon his backbone. We suppose there are several thousand reliable methods of losing a straw hat, but a certain Norfolk man has them all beat. He laid his on top of a Ford coupe and then drove out from under it. If Dawes is elected vice president, we presume a lot of girls born in the next few years will be named Helen Maria by their proud Republican parents. If all that one reads in the papers is true, scandal has rather a heavy breath this year. In Paris, they are wearing slits under their arms. They say it is a regular side show. The woman of today, announces H. C. Brown could be fully covered by insurance. Yes, insurance or something. The stock salesman, after painting a beautiful word picture, said: "Now, Mr. Jones, you know this company hasn't got a dollar's worth of watered stock in it. How much are you going to buy?" "Young man," he said, "the next stock I buy is going to have four legs, and I will water it myself." MY OWN TRUE LOVE My own true love is fair to see.

S.)—Friday afternoon at 3:38 o'clock when the mucous cry of "play ball" ports over the historic Baker bowl, otherwise known as the Philadelphia National Baseball League Park, the Kansas City Monarchs, winners of the gonfalon of the National League, and the Philadelphia Hildales, winners of the flag in the Eastern League, will get off on the first lap of the nine game series, to decide the world's championship on the diamond of 1924. Bearing in one respect and aspect, the famous struggle in the American and National Leagues for first place, especially in the American, where the Washington Senators with a 27-year-old manager, are battling the veteran Miller Huggins and his famous coterie of diamond satellites including the one and only "Babe" Ruth; the East-West series will see the veteran Mendez pitted against the youngster Warfield in a battle of brains and skill, which will be the outstanding features of the series. MENDEZ CALLED BLACK ?ATTHEW- Mendez is of the old school—skilled in all the tricks of the game—a crafter and a leader of the John McGraw type. McGraw, himself, called Mendez the "Black Mathewson" and this title still holds good wherever the name of the great pitcher, who is still one of the most formidable relief hurlers in organized baseball is known. "When Kansas City wins, I win, and when Kansas City loses, I lose." This statement of the old master typifies the absolute authority and respect for himself which he maintains throughout the season. Warfield, on the other hand, whose equal as a second baseman is contested only by the veteran DeMoss, of the American Giants, and whose superior cannot be found in organized baseball, either white or colored, is undergoing his first year as a player-manager. as a second baseman, he is acknowledged without a peer, and the very fact that he brought his high class aggregation through a strenuous season to the Eastern championship, augues well for his ability as a manager. But whether he will be able to compete with the crafty experience of Jose Mendez is something else. MONARCHS FAVORITES MONARCHS FAVORITES The Kansas City Monarchs of the parent circuit, apparently revered supreme in the opinion of many of the baseball experts. Taking the players, man for man, there is not a great deal to choose between them. The offensive strength is practically on a 50-50 basis, but the Westerners, with a better defense and an apparent edge in pitching, appear already to be the favorites in the betting. The team which won in the Junior circuit, however, though slightly incapacitated at present through injuries to several of the stellar regulars, declare that they will have their full strength in the lineup on the opening day. In conclusion, with the Monarchs superior infield and Hildalake's superior outfield and speed, the hitting about even, and the Monarchs carrying a razor-edge advantage in pitching, the two club stack up as being about evenly matched when all things are considered, and should furnish nine games of real skillful, thrilling and high class baseball. NORCUM OPENS WITH THE ELK ELEVEN The I. C. Norcum High School eleven will open the football season in Portsmouth, Thursday, October 9, when it meets the Elk sound of the same city. Much cannot be said about either team, since the strength of neither is known, but if reports are true, the Elk eleven will have no trouble in winning from the high school aggregation. It has been said that the former team is the same as the last year's Y. M. C. A. squad, that is, it is composed of the same players that made such a good showing in last season's campaign. Of course, all of this does not necessarily take anything from the Portsmouth high school team. They also played wonderfully last season. The school had its first coach in the history of the institution and the team went through the year in pretty fair form.

Norfolk will have the good fortune of witnessing two of the best games scheduled this year when Hampton meets St. Paul and Lincoln meets Union there on the 18 and 27 respectively of October. One thing that is going to turn the tide of battle in many games ie going to be the quality of the reserve strength which a school posses- ses, Mark that. Bitter, hard-fighting, but friendly, rivals; interseetional struggles; thirst for revenge that make exciting games—all these will aid in mak- ing the various games successes.

Reserve strength will turn the lide of battle in many games, we asserted earlier in the Gleanings. Thae reminds us that the serubs and the second teams make up that strength. And that also reminds us that we can never forget the serubs and second teams, for without them, there could be no varsity. They may play the second fiddle, but jit fea important part they play.

Harrison Dempsey, heavy- ‘weight champion, who was a spec- tator at the Wills-Firno fight. Wills, everyone knows, has a rived at the point where he can de- mand a bout with ‘the champion. Some writers say that Wills was not doing his hest—rather going hix hest— in the fight with Firpo hecause he knew that the Dempsey person was right there at the ring side drinking in every move he made. ‘Harry is a reliable old campaisen- cr. He knew what Dempsey was there for. It wasn’t to sce the fight and to enjoy the thrills. At the end of the seventh round Demp- sey got up and walked out. Be- cause all that he or anyone else was seeing was the humdrum repe- tition of Wills! feinting Firpo into an opening and then pummelling away at his ribs. Was Wills actually hiding his stuff. Smart boxing men say_he was. Did he fight two men, Fir- po and Dempsey? Was he fooling two birds at one and the same itime? Was he baffling Firpo phy- Jsically and Dempsey mentally? Rather a unique situation if he did. So it is a consensus of horned: ‘tailed opinions that he was fight- ca» both men at the same time. | What has become of the old-fash- ioned mother who was afraid her ‘baby’s liver would turn over?

Greatest Photoplay Ever Filmed Is Jas. Cruze's 'The Covered Wagon' Perfect Realism, Strong Love Theme, Colossal Out Door Scenes, Dramatic Action and Thrills, Happily blended in Big Production A Lois Wilson and J. Warren Kenigan in a scene from the Paramount Picture " THE COVERED WAGON " Some Big Scenes Here are some of the big scenes in "The Covered Waron": The great wagon train leaving Westport Landing. The fording of the Kaw River by wagon train. The attack by Indians. The massacre of the pioneers. The prairie fire. Molly's wild ride and rescue by Bannon. The scenes at Fort Bridger. The parting of the train—for Oregon and California. The fight between Banion and Woodhull. The great buffalo hunt. The death of Woodhull. One of the greatest photoplays ever made, will be the popular verdict when the motion picture public sees James Cruze's colossal Paramount production, "The Covered Wagon" which will be the feature at the Attucks Theatre next week, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday only. That is the prediction made not only by Mr. Cruze himself, but by those who have seen the picture and who hail it for its bigness, impressiveness and extraordinary realism. Perfect realism, a strong love theme, tremendous dramatic action, thrills that are utterly unlike the ordinary sort; a background of real newness to the screen, where the camera has never before been ground; all these facts, coupled with the splendid cast of virtually 3,000 men and women, certainly indicate a picture that is worthy of any director's enthusiasm. And James Cruze is enthusiastic. He has believed in the picture from the start and with each day of shooting, sometimes under conditions almost unbelievably difficult, his enthusiasm has grown. Nor is he alone in his belief, for every person in the drama of the old-time western days share his convictions. The story with the vast sweep of the western plains for background, across which wind the "covered wagons" with their human freight, is essentially good picture material. The plot is dramatic with the interest well sustained, and the story unfolds like a stirring panorama-of an earlier day. At The Attucks Next First Time Sho Lois Wilson and J. Warr Garamount Picture LIONS HARD HIT BY GRADUATION When Lincoln University conferred degrees on the largest graduating class in its history on June 3rd, few sympathizers realized that with that group went the backbone of what was one of the most powerful of the Eastern eleven of the 1923 season. The loss of "Battleship" Carter, tackle; "Kid" Coston, guard; "Pigiron" Poindexter, tackle; and the Whirlwind" Captain Johnson, left the Lions face to face with a critical situation. With the most difficult schedule in years, U. S. Young summoned his "pets" on September 15th, in an effort to develop sufficient material to float the orange and blue on high once more. For one week, Coach Young looked them over in practice and JCKS ents and WEDNESDAY 6-7-8 Here at last, the original "Covered Wagan," first showing in a Colored theatre in the world. The world's greatest and most expensive picture ever made-James Cruze's Big Paramount Production, "THE COVERED WAGON", Beautiful, Romantic and Soul-Stirring. It's a dramatic Epic of the glorious and adventurous period of American in its making.

The theme deals with the adventures of a guilant young officer of the American army forced by a rival's enmity to clear his name of an undeserved stain, that of being a cattle theft, and to win his bride under heavy difficulties. J Warren Kerrigan is the man, Lois Wilson, the girl, and Allan Hale, the scheming villian. This trio does the major part of the acting, and to them along with the director, goes the credit for this superb production. Others in the cast are Charles Ogle, Ernest Torrence, Tully Marshall, Guy Oliver and John Fox. The action is exceptionally thrilling, the incidents being dramatized and impressive. These include the fording of the Kaw River by the wagon train, the Indian attack and massacre, the prairie fire, the buffalo hunt, the fire battle between Banion and Woodhull, the parting Week own In Colored Theatre ken Kerrigan in a scene from the E COVERED WAGON on Saturday, September 27, called the first real scrimmage of the year. To say he gave all a chance to "do their stuff" would be putting it mildly. A few veterans, numerous new men and "preps with no veps" fought all over the pigskin, and when the shades of night fell on Rendall Field, the sidelines were confident that Coach "Lissy" had the makings of as vicious a set of Lions as ever represented any institution of the East. Among the newcomers, a stockily built chap from the ranks, gave evidence of being a strong competition for "big Boy" Morgan's pivot position. Rainey and Johnny Ward looked good to the experienced eye, while Hibbler, Anderson and West, the star from Norfolk High, were on their toes at all times, and showed to advantage, although played hard by opponents. With the veteran Lions, "Jazz" Byrd, the consistent point scorer of two seasons, is in excellent shape, fast and fleet as ever, and Here at last, the origin pensive picture ever my Soul-Stirring.

Hart In "Wild Bill Hickok" Will Delight Fans Famous Paramount Star Returns to Screen after Retirement of Two Years The Paramount picture, "WILD BILL HICKOK," that marks the return of William S. Hart to the screen after a prolonged retirement will be given a hearty reception at its opening showing at the Attucks theatre next Friday and Saturday where it will be presented for the first time in Norfolk. Mr. Hart has scored more than a come-back in this picture, he has established himself more firmly than ever in the hearts of picture fans everywhere, if his personal success last evening is to be taken as a criterion. In his portrayal of vile western characters, Mr. Hart has no rival and he stands alone in the most vivid two-gun man of the screen. His versatility never was displayed to finer advantage in any picture. "Wild Bill" is the greatest thing he has ever done on the screen. Ethel Grey Terry is Mr. Hart's leading woman, and Kathleen O'Connor also has an important role. Among others in the cast are Herschel Mayall, James Farley, Jack Gardner and Carl Gerad. calling signals in form, commensurate with the wack's practice.

Captain Crudup, with his educated toe, and Tad Lancaster on the wing positions, should make it absolutely dangerous for opponents attempting to gain ground around their territory. All in all, the Lions are roaring and rearing to go against outside opposition, in order that a more definite line might be had on their real ability. However, it won't be long before Coach Young can loose the leach, for on Saturday, October 4th, the King of the Jungle is scheduled to combat the Ironsiders of Bordentown, whom they hope to claw into submission. Interest On Upward Norfolk, Va., Oct. 2—Interest in Norfolk is centering now on the coming struggle between two teams that always put forth their best efforts, and always stage a thrilling gridiron fractas when they face each other. These two teams are the Hampton "Seasiders" and the St. Paul "Tigers." This will be the first time these two elevens have staged a battle for supremacy in this city. Both are now two of the most powerful contenders for the football championship of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Hampton has always been a formidable contender, and reports indicate that she will put a team the equal of her best in the field in this game with the rising "Tigers." Neither team has played enough to give a definite idea as to comparative strength, but a ready speculations are rife as to the probable winner. The ever-present "if" is keeping the enthusiasts on edge for the big contest. Crowds even greater than those that have witnessed other college contests in Norfolk are expected to attend the game. The social side of the affair will be centered chiefly in a social and dance at Bailey's Annex, corner of Church and Queen streets. Other affairs are being arranged for the occasion, and Norfolk will take on a holiday.

Big Carnival Big Races Free Acts Fireworks DON'T MISS IT The candidates are being shaped into several evenly balanced teams. They are serimmaging daily in preparation for the first game of the season with Durham State Normal School, which is somewhat of an unknown quantity around the "Seasiders" environs. The coaches are drilling the teams in expectation of any thing that the North Carolina institution may attempt to uncoach. Hampton is directing every effort in practice towards putting an unbeatable gridiron squad on the field. If an abundance of material of a varsity grade means anything except a difficult job for the coaches in making final choices for the varsity eleven, then the team that takes the field on October 4, will be an evenly balanced, experienced, heady team; willing and prepared to fight to the last inch for a clean victory over their opponents. Few INJURIES TO PLAYERS Only one injury has occurred that will take a player out of the game for any appreciable length of time. James Anderson, promising quarterback from Lexington Ky. is the only candidate who will have to remain out of the game for more than a day. An injured leg is keeping him out of the serumimages. The remaining players are keeping in excellent physical condition and a happy frame of mind. Only the usual early season bruises and serathes are in evidence. Weather conditions are aiding in the work of putting the team in its fine shape.

This is another reason why the candidates are rounding into excellent shape. Of course, the staff of rubbers is doing its share in keeping down soreness and stiffness. Several combinations have been worked out by the coaches. There is room for uncertainty as to the team which will take the field in the first game. There is plenty of material from which to choose. Even a tentative line-up for the opening contest may be changed at any time. Tuskegee Field To Be Enclosed Tuskegee, Aia., Oct. 4—(P. N.

The nearness of the 1924 football season finds the mentor somewhat pessimistic in regards to turning out a winning combination. The coaching staff is fast whipping the raw material in shape and ironing out the kinks in the old letter and second string men.

Last Sunday, the auditorium was well filled to hear the pastor, Dr. D. P. White, speak on "The Christian's Attitude Toward Strangers." The one went at its best. Every one went away with a feeling of exaltation; being greatly inspired both mentally and spiritually. The pastor insisted that every stranger who enters the church is either an angel bringing a blessing or an opportunity for Christian service for the members and friends who are at home in the church. He then hemined the sinners that Christ, who is a stranger to them is at the door of their hearts knocking for admission. They should open the door and let the stranger Mrs. F. White, entertained her Sister school class last Friday afternoon, upon the occasion of their promotion to Miss Ruby King's class. The class and teacher had a very pleasant afternoon and the spirit of farewell prevailed the hour. After an hour of games refreshments were served. MONUMENTAL A. M. E. CHURCH Last Sunday was a very good day with us. The Sunday School was out in large numbers. The lesson was interestingly reviewed by teachers and superintendents. At the 11 o'clock hour, Rev. Leo Grandy, a student of Wilberforce University gave us an excellent sermon, much to the delight of all present. At 7 o'clock p. m. the A. C. E. Leagues held an interesting and inspiring service conducted by Mrs. A. C. E. Leagues, D. W. Baker, D. D. of Oceana, with his chair and many of his followers preached an excellent sermon. The pastor will preach this Sunday morning, followed by Holy Communion at night. The services will be under the charge of the Sunday school which will render a program. This is an educational effort. MT. OLIVE BAPSTEST CHURCH Wonderful progress is being made in this branch of the Lord's vineyard, the same is evidenced by the splendid attendance that characterizes every service. Great spiritual prayer meetings are being held every Friday night as well as Sunday. The Sunday the pastor, Rev. Johnson, preached two of the most powerful sermons that have ever been delivered from this pulpit, both of which stirred his hearers and filled their souls with spiritual ethnusiasm. The Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. are beginning their fall work with added interest and every department of the church will be involved the year for progress along all lines. The governor's contest is proving very interesting, fuller details will be published later. MT. LEBANON BAPTIST CHURCH Last Sunday, our services were fine. The morning prayer meeting was full of spiritual fervor. The Sunday school met at 9:30 a.m. and a large number of scholars were present along with the teachers. At 11:30 a.m., the pastor delivered a great sermon from Luke 1:30, 32. At 13:30 a.m., Rev. A. M. Johnson, gave us another Gospel feast. The B. Y. P. U. met at the usual hour and rendered a program. At night the pastor gave us a short message from Mark 10:21. Thus ended a profitable day for Jesus with two additions. ST. JOHN'S A. M. E. CHURCH Last Sunday the services were well attended. The pastor preached at the morning hour a splendid sermon. At 3:30, the annual Cradle Roll Day was observed, under the auspices of the Sunday school. A splendid program was rendered by the little tots, with special music by the Sunday school chair and orchestra. Mrs. Mabel B. Young delivered the principal address, which was filled with many helpful thoughts for mothers, fathers and all grown-ups who have the care of infants and small children. The Interdenominational Sunday School Council was also scheduled for the same hour, and thus many workers were present. A witness this great demonstration by Cradle Roll Department. The church was a veritable flower garden with human bouquets in the form of babies, who crowed, cried and otherwise enjoyed themselves. At night a splendid sacred concert was rendered by the Happy Workers. The A. C. E. League meetings keep up in interest and enthusiasm. CHURCH DIRECTORY GRACE P. E. CHURCH EVERYONE SCHOOL a n. m.

Bowling preached as announced: "Let Love Have A Chance," I Cor. 16:14. A large and appreciative audience went away filled with food for thought and inspiration, having listened to the man of God. The Sunday school and E. Y. P. U. are always on the alert to inform us about their memberships. By this means new ideas and plans are constantly being brought forward and perfected and as a result their respective programs are made exceedingly inter- esting and helpful. Everybody welcome to this home- like church. BANK STREET BAPISTEN Bank Street opened its revival at the Sunday morning service with a strong practical and eloquent sermon delivered by Rev. E. E. Smith, associate pastor of Zion Baptist Church, Portsmouth, Va. Rev. Smith spoke from the text, Isaiah 55:7. His theme was, "Back to God." The speaker showed the fruitlessness of attempting to get on in the world continually rebelling against conscience, which he defined as the "voice of God in the human soul, approving when we do right, disapproving whenever we do wrong." Answering the question in the affirmative as to whether or not God would receive us, he showed the necessity of returning into God from the standpoint of racial consciousness; from the standpoint of our national life and from the standpoint of our church life. Bank Street will continue revival services conducted by Rev. Smith until the second Sunday in October. Two Young Men Enter Business Here Messrs. Arthur And Luther Coffee Acquire Interest In Mize ll's Restuarant On Queen Street. Messrs. Arthur and Luther Cuffee, two progressive young men of this city, have recently acquired an interest in Mizell's restaurant, with Mr. H. W. Mizell, 364 Queen street, corner of Bank, and they with the former proprietor, have formulated and are carrying out extensive plans for improvement of the restaurant's price and appearance of the establishment. Mizell's restaurant has hitherto been popularly known for its substantial and homelike meals, at moderate prices and its inviting service. With Messrs Cuffee now connected with the business, bringing to it additional capital and deep interest, there is certain to be decided enhancement of service to its patrons. Having, remodeling and other improvements are now under way, which when completed will make of Mizell's restaurant one of the first eating places in the city. Messrs. Cuffee are formerly from Deep Creek, Va.; Mr. Arthur Cuffee graduating from Booker T. Washington High School with the class of 1924. He plans to pursue a college course after completing arrangements connected with his interest.

C. McDowell Among Youngest Missionaries Sent Out by A. M. A. Rev. and Mrs. H. C. Dowell and family who are now visiting America, after spending a number of years in Angola and other parts of Africa as missionaries, were the guests of their uncle and, Mr., and Mrs. H. F. Fonville, 1914 Anne street. Rev and Mrs. McDowell seem imbued with the true missionary spirit—service and sacrifice. They are among the youngest missionaries sent over by the A. M. A. and have been among the most successful. Rev McDowell being quite versatile, had charge of the preaching, teaching and manual training of a nice group of African boys, while Mrs. McDowell, had charge of the industrial training with the teaching and giving musical instructions to both boys and girls alike. They are very much in love with the work and are looking forward for the time to return to their post of duty. They are touring the country in interest of their work and have a number of interesting things to tell about Africa. They were enroute to Washington, D. C., and it is regretted that Rev McDowell's limited time would not permit his giving a lecture here. Almost Everyone Can Now Own A Car In these days of rapid progress, almost every family finds definite need for an automobile. Many families already are enjoying the benefits of a good car, but there are plenty of people who would like to own a car, and most people use of it, who, as yet, have been unable to make the necessary financial arrangements to secure a car. Mr. Watson of Watson Motormart, 905 Granbury street, Norfolk, who has probably had more experience in handling good 'used cars', has developed a method for selling cars to honorable people on easy terms, a little low and a little easy week or month, just as they can pay. "I wish everyone could own a car," said Mr. Watson, "for I don't see how a good mechanic, store-teeper, or anyone else can afford money — going to and from his work, waiting for street cars and itneys, and then frequently having to walk. Of course, there are lots of people who don't deserve to own a car — and probably never will—but the time is coming when the working man will realize that he will save so much time going to work, that he will insist on buying a car. My plan is very simple, and really not new after all. If Mr. White Man or Mr. Colored Man pays his rent or his bills to the grocer, the furniture store as he promised to, all he needs is a little cash money. I'll sell him a good car and he can pay as he rides. my cars are cheap and I'll guarded every one an honest-to-goodness machine, with the fair terms, and a square deal. Billy Wilkerson, drove one of my Certified Used Cars for over 122 hours without stopping the engine during the Norfolk Feech test. He would not be afraid to try it again with any Watson Certified Car." Cut Buttons To Keep Hubby Home Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 2—(A. N. P.)—When Frank Lare was arraigned before Judge MacNellie in the Domestic Relations Court in a suit for support by his wife, he accused her of cutting the buttons from his shirts. "I cut the buttons from his shirts to keep him at home," the wife explained. "Sometimes he would stay at home on that account and sometimes he wouldn't." NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE "REBUILDING THE WALLS" SUBJECT AT GRACE CHURCH "A Mind To Work." Most Essential Contribution to Success, Says Eloquent Young Minister. At the morning service last Sunday, Rev. Harris preached to a large congregation on the subject, "Rebuilding the Walls," using as his text Nehemiah 4:6. He stressed three features as contributing to the success of the undertaking, unity, order and most important of all "the mind to work." He said if the church is to accomplish the tasks before it the people must have "the mind to work." It removes difficulties and prevents discouragement. At the evening service, the Rector used as his text, St. Luke 5:20, speaking on the subject, "What People With Faith Can Do For Others." At 3 o'clock, Rev. Harris preached the annual sermon to the Juvenile Branch of the Tents. He used as a basis of his sermon the Fifth Commandment, "Honor thy father and thy mother." "Children should honor their parents because they are responsible for them and know by experience the pitfalls awaiting them in life." Continuing he said, "The best way to honor your parents is by obedience and it is such an important virtue that not even the Son of men could come from childhood to perfect manhood without it."

Edge defeated National Committee Hamilton P. Keen in the race for the Republican nomination at the State primaries held Tuesday, winning by 0,000 votes. Keen had been supported by Isaac Nutter, Atlantic City lawyer, who fought Edge because of his unfairness to the Negroes of the State. Nutter was successful in throwing the Negro vote to Keen but it did not prove enough to overcome Edge's big lead piled up among the whites in the cities. Both candidates declared for party harmony after the primary. MUST LIVE WITH VOODOO HUSBAND Almoona, Pa. Oct. 2.—(A, N. P.)—Alleging that her husband put some spell over her, causing her untold miseries, Mrs. John Grant, of this city, petitioning Judge Thomas for separate maintenance with direction that her husband leave her home. Grant sometimes ago agreed to pay his wife $40 per month, but continued to room in the house. He declared that his wife would come to his bed chamber and blow a whistle for over an hour and serenade with old pans. Judge Thomas directed the $40 agreement to stand, with permission for the husband to remain. Claim Moonshine Is "Holy Water" Camden, N. J., Oct. 2.—(A. N. P.)—According to Theodore and Ellen Hicks, of Tenth street and Central avenue, Camden county detectives made a big mistake when they alleged before Judge Shay in the Criminal Court that they had found several quartes of "white mule" in the Hicks home. In fact, they asserted, it was no booze at all, but "holy water" and Inimine, used for bathing purposes. But it was proved to the satisfaction of the Court that the limiment was used ostensibly for internal bathing and the couple were convicted of having liquor in their possession. Code Letter Loses Alimony Camden, N. J., Oct. 2.—(A. N. P.)—Judge Shirav revoked an order requiring Charles Williams, of Dearli, to pay his wife, Mabel, of this city, $7.00 a week when a love letter sent by the woman to Howard Blackson was deciphered. It was a code and Detective Gribben, finger-print expert, did the deciphering after a couple of hours. In it Mrs. Williams had written in code: Dear Howard; I am penning a few letters to let you know that I am well and hope you are the same. Howard can I see you next Sunday night, and if you can let me know where and at what time, Howard, I have something to tell you. I will close with love. Mabel. P.

BOYS BETTER "COLLEGE RISKS" THAN GIRLS Washington, D. C., Oct. 2.—(A. N. P.)—Boys are better "college risks" than girls. That is, boys have a better chance of making good in college than girls, according to a report on the intelligence of high school seniors in Massachusetts which has been measured by the Education of the Department of the Interior. For every two boys who are apt to fail for graduation, there are three girls who are very likely to lose their chance for the coveted sheepskin. Forty-two per cent of the boys and twenty-two per cent of the girls are good risks. Howard University T. CHURCH—3 P. M.

Tailors At Corner of Lincoln PETER B. Liberia Much Concerned Over The Effects of Garvey Propaganda Which May Affect Future of the Republic PART TWO PAGES 7 TO 12 Liberia. The President made clear that Liberia would not permit herself to be drawn into the meshes of racial antagonism and conflict. Liberia would welcome immigrants of the proper type who would come to the country with a view of being helpful, but would have nothing to do with these elements whose activities tend to inflame race prejudice and to create international difficulties. The political sense of the American Negro did not appear to be highly developed, but the President could not fail to remark his wonderful industrial progress. Those who are interested in industrial pursuits would receive in Liberia the widest encouragement. Liberia needed them. Notwithstanding this outspoken declaration, Garvey, whilst the President was yet in America, persisted in dispatching a "Commission" to Liberia for the grant of lands upon which they would establish settlements and institute their government. The "Commissioners" who were received by the Secretary of State were frankly told that the government could give no countenance to their schemes. They would not长 themselves to the political purposes of Garvey. They had no objection to immigration of the right sort. If Negroes in America or elsewhere desired to come as settlers to Liberia, they would be welcomed provided they took the path of allegiance to the Republic and repudiated all former allegiance Liberia could not recognize dual citizenship. If they were citizens of Garvey's kingdom or Republic whichever it was, they would also have to repudiate such allegiance Such settlers would not be permitted to establish their own municipal organizations except under the general laws of the Republic, and that in any case they would be located in townships already established. The "Commissioners" were not a little disappointed with this reply. They had endeavored to exploit the race question. The Secretary of State told them that "we are Liberians before we are Negroes;" and that as a state already recognized in the family of nations, we could not give countenance to any associations whose avowed objects and widely advertised plans were the launching of the race-war against friendly states. In any event Liberia could not be used as a base for such operations. Thus failed the second attempt of Garvey to inveigle the Liberian Government into support of his schemes. Band Leader Loving Gets O. R. C. Commission Washington, D. C., October 2—(P. N. S.)—Walter Howard Loving, lately retired as major and band leader of the Philippine Constabulary Band after 22 years of service as such, has been appointed by the War Department, a major in the general service, Officers' Reserve Corps. His present home is Almeda, Calif. He was graduated from the Washington High School, this city in 1892, and from the New England Conservatory of Music in 1898. In 1899 he went to the Philippines as band leader of the 18th Volunteers and two years later became leader of the Constabulary Band then in process of organization. So successful was he with the 98 Filipinos composing the band that it was sent to the United States. The band played at the St. Louis Exposition in competition with the leading military bands of the world and was awarded the first prize. Later the band came to Washington and marched in the procession at the inauguration of President Harding. In announcing Maj. Loving's appointment to the Office's Reserve Corps, the War Department statement said that "as a musician Maj. Loving ranks among the greatest leader, foremost of race.

These maps are also published with green overprint showing woodland. Monrovia, Liberia—(A. N. P.) Considerable concern has been aroused in Liberia over wrong impressions which have gained currency abroad with respect to the supposed influence of Garveyism upon the Liberian public. The impressions created are easily accounted for by reason of the ill-advised countenance which certain individuals prominent in Liberian social and official circles seem to have given to the Garvey propaganda. There can be no denying the fact that a considerable sympathy is felt in Liberia, with the efforts of Negro peoples all over the world to ameliorate their social, political and economic condition. This is a long way, however, from saying that Liberia has any sympathy with political incendarism whether proceeding from Negro or from other sources. The history of Liberia is the history of a community developing along all lines of peaceful endeavor; and this community both by tradition and inclination, is influenced rather by considerations which ten to secure and strengthen national existence, progress and stability than by racial Utopias. It is recognized that the future of Liberia is dependent upon amicable cooperation with all the forces which are at work for the uplift of the African peoples. This is a fundamental idea underlying Liberian national thought. Primarily, however, the practical aspects of Negro development and emancipation are limited in Liberia to making Liberia. Every other consideration is subordinate. The Negro race will achieve its place beside the other races by the inevitable processes of evolution. But this achievement will and can only be realized along the ways of progressive peaceful effort. And so it is unthinkable to a Liberian, influenced as he must be by the facts of his national environment and traditions, when he comes to realize their potentialities for national evil, that Liberia can be used as the point d'appui, whence the grandiose schemes of the "Negro Moses" may find their genesis. The Liberian gentleman whose apparent connection with the Garvey movement lends support to the idea that Liberia is coqueting with Garvey, are really animated with a far different thought. The civilized population of Liberia, in their opinion is in need of recruits; but it is likely that the desire to secure this reinforcement has obscured their vision as to the influence which persons imbued with Garvey's ideas may have upon the future of the Republic. They would be the first to deny,—and with sincerity—any sympathy with Garvey's theatricals and bombast. One of them, at least—Mr, Arthur Barclay—is largely responsible for the trend of present day Liberian policy. In the early days of his first administration as President he laid down three propositions as being the condition of national strength, safety and progress:— (a) Cultural and political development of the native tribes with a view to their incorporation into the body politic. (b) Friendly cooperation with states having territories adjacent to the Republic, and ing the future of the Republic. These propositions have become fundamentals of national policy The conservative elements among the civilized population have from year to year given such increasing adherence to these views that it has become almost a reproach to be called an "Americo-Liberian." No less have the native tribes responded to the benevolent attitude which has resulted from this policy A national consciousness is in process of development among them, and we have all become Liberians without the hyphenated prefix. The appearance of these gentlemen upon the U. N. I. A. platform does not therefore seem to have the significance sought to be attached to it. As to the Liberian Government's attitude toward Garveyism nothing can be more clear, definite and emphatic. When President King was in America in 1921, he made public his views with regard to the immigration of American Negroes into Norfolk Journal and Guide Race And Religion to Cut A Larger Figure In Present Political Campaign Than In Any Since 1856 Garvey, nevertheless with remarkable lack of appreciation of the situation persisted in holding up.Liberia as the Mecca of his activities. By this means he gained the ears and pockets of American Negroes genuinely interested in Liberia. These people have been deceived and nobody has reaped the financial benefits acruing from this propaganda save Garvey and his accomplices. With regard to the popular attitude toward this matter, we have already remarked the sympathy which Liberians have with Negrostrivings all over the world, the need for reinforcing the civilized population of the country and, we might add here, the thought embalmed in the Liberian Declaration of Independence that Liberia is the natural asylum for Negroes seeking to escape social and political oppression and discrimination in other lands. It is understandable how these thoughts and sentiments, apart altogether from political considerations, could create a mental attitude which would lead some Liberians to give more or less ready acceptance to Garvey's ideals. Liberians however, are in- By WILLIAM HARD In Springfield (Mass.) Union Washington, D. C., Oct. 2—The Negroes and the Catholics are getting shoved up farther and farther toward the forefront of the national campaign. That is the most striking national political development and prospect at this moment. It has been impossible to confine the campaign issues called strictly "political." The racial issue and the religious issue have entered into the campaign beyond recall. They have entered into it with every chance that they will become more and more important and influential as the campaign proceeds. Both Democratic campaign managers and Republican campaign managers are determined to wrest votes from LaFollette on the racial issue and on the religious issue. A distinguished Democratic United States Senator has remarked to this writer: "By election day we will not leave LaFollette one Catholic vote." He was exaggerating his prowess but he was pointing to a definite policy entertained by numerous managers in both the Democratic and Republican camps. They intend to tell every Catholic and every Negro that the white Protestant majorities in northern legislatures will Ku Klux them without hindrance if LaFollette succeeds in bringing it about that legislatures can override the courts. The constitutional issue and the Ku Klux Klan issue have merged. LaFollette was the first candidate to denounce the Klan. He began to pick a multitude of Negro and Catholic votes. In this writer's judgment he will retain most of the Negro votes thus gained. The Catholics fear hostile legislation against their schools. They have a special reason for being Garveyites Can't Wear Uniforms At Home New York, Oct. 2.—(A. N. P.)—A dispatch received here from India, British West Indies, shows that members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association led by Marcus Garvey, are prohibited from wearing the uniform of the organization in Jamaica, which is the home of Garvey and many of the adherents of the "Back-to-Africa" movement. Thus they are given more freedom in America than at home. Publisher Of Famous Hymn Dies Chittanooga, Tenn., Oct. 2.—(A. N. P.)—A. J. Showalter, nationally known as a song publisher, was found dead in his room at a hotel in this city recently. One of his most famous compositions was "Leaning on the Everlasting arms," which had been published in more than 1,000 song books and translated into practically every language where the Christian religion is known. New York City's new budget provides for the addition of 1,059 teachers for the coming year. Increased enrollments for 1925 make this extra number of teachers necessary. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1924 clinched to bring everything to the acid test of practical experience. They are not very erudulous. Nob is their enthusiasm easily stimulated.' They are liberal enough to give a hearing to any proposition but they always maintain the right "to make reservation." When "The Honorable Milton J. Marshall" the first evangelist of Garveyism to reach Liberia (he has since been convicted and executed for murder) held his initial public meeting, the large audience that listened with attention to his graphic description of how the oppression to which black peoples all over the world were subjected has aroused a militant race consciousness, was visibly moved. But when at the end of his oration he proceeded to sell lead pencils "to help the good work along," as he said, the sublimity of his aims was outweighed by the ridiculousness of the means with which he hoped to achieve the "good work." He was heartily hooted. Garveyism then lost its opportunity as a forceful factor in Liberian life. It thereafter became increasingly difficult for Marshall to get an audience at his weekly lectures, and his efforts would have died of ination had new stimulus not been given them by the advent of Elie Garcia, a Haitian, then associated with Garvey, who was sent out in the quality of "Special Commissioner" to center with President Howard. pleased with a judicial power which can declare such legislation unconstitutional. The Negroes are not exactly in the same case. The courts have been of little service to the Negroes in protecting them against hostile legislation by southern states; and virtually no such legislation is passed against them by northern states. WHY NEGROES DESERT REPUBLICANS They are interested in protection from mobs more than in protection from legislatures. On that point LaFollette's declaration against the Klan tends to satisfy them. That a considerable part of their vote will go to LaFollette and that a certain considerable part of it will go to Davis is now among Republican managers a growing haunting fear. The reason is not only the Ku Klux Klan and President Coolidge's slowness in denouncing the Klan. There are also numerous other reasons. On inquiry this writer lists the most important of those reasons as follows:— 1. The fewness of federal appointments given to Negroes in comparison with the relatively numerous appointments given to them by the Democratic mayors of Boston, New York and Chicago. 2. The failure of the Republican party, with a majority in both houses of Congress, to pass the Dyer bill for federal punishment of lynching. 3. The exquisitely ironic stroke of chance by which Negroes were segregated from the whites at the dedication of the memorial of Abraham Lincoln in Washington, thus producing a "Jim Crow" spectacle by act of a Republican administration, on the day of the national tribute to the emancipator of the Negroes. 4. The reluctance of the Republican administration to appoint a Negro staff to manage the Negro hospital at Tuskegee Ala. 5. The long-continued failure to pardon the Negro soldiers who were imprisoned for alleged participation in the famous historic riots at Brownsville, Texas, and who have been proved at least as innocent as the recent anti-war allied agitators who were relatively promptly pardoned and released. MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE KLAN These reasons are in fact much more important than the Ku Klux Klan reason in diverting Negro votes from the Republican party. The National Colored Republican conference, in assemblage at Atlantic City, has denounced its own Republican party for its present attitudes and policies toward Negroes. John E. Milhooland of New York, at one time eastern secretary of the Republican national committee, has written to the committee to point out that the Democrats in New York city have sent a Negro to the city board of aldermen and a Negro to the state legislature out of districts which previously had been Republican strongholds. Meanwhile the organization called the United Colored Democracy goes about the country calling attention to a long list of Negroes in New York city appointed to office by Mayor Hylan and Tammany. NOT IMPORTANT PRESIDENTIAL Frankly, there is not the slightest doubt that the Republicans are going to lose many old-time Republican Negro votes this fall. Mitigation of their misfortune is Garcia's secret and confidential report to the "President-General" fell into the hands of the Liberian Government. Its contents were such as gave a clear picture of the revoluntary purpose of the U. N. I. I. in Liberia, and determined the Government's irrevocable attitude of opposition. There were a few individuals who animated by the vision of an emancipated race and seeing the realization of this emancipation under Garvey's leadership proceeded to organize themselves into local division, so-called, of the U. N. I. A. They borrowed money most of which has not been repaid, and sent a delegate to the Convention or Congress held by Garvey in New York. The Liberian delegate was eventually appointed "Supreme Potentate" and returned to Liberia with a group of "Experts" who were to plan and build up Garvey's African Empire. No sooner had this advance of the Garvey invasion reached Monrovia than divided councils puralized their activities. "His Highness, the Supreme Potentate" found himself controlled and hedged in by secret instructions which had been given his subordinates. "His Highness", because he was a Libarian could not be trusted to carry out the secret purposes of the "President-General". He was not in the confidence of the inner circle. He was a mere label—an advertisement. is to be noted that the Negroes do not get much chance to vote in the South and that in the North the Negro vote is more important congressionally than presidentially. In Illinois, for instance, which is a great northern Negro$^3$ state, the census of 1920 showed 109,000 Negroes concentrated in Chicago, where they tend to inhabit a "black belt." This is important in Chicago district elections to Congress. On the other hand the census of 1920 showed in all Illinois only 182,000 Negroes out of a total population of approximately 6,500,000 people in the state. This indicates that the Negro voter is a minor factor in Illinois in the election of state-wide presidential electors. STRENGTH OF CATHOLIC VOTE The Catholic vote is more important. In the nation as a whole there are today 16 Catholics in every 100 of total population. In Illinois 18 out of every 100 people are Catholics. In New York state it is 26 out of every 100. The Catholics can be quite a decisive factor in many states. Of the three candidates LaFollette has in certain ways the best record from the Catholic standpoint. Not only was he the first candidate to denounce the Klan but he continually has opposed "sumptuary legislation." Catholics by tradition and by theology are against "sumptuary legislation"—legislation which dictates personal habits to the citizen. To put it candidly and clearly, LaFollette voted against the Volstead law; and, while there are many Catholics who favor the Volstead law, and while there are multitudes of Catholics who are total abstainers on principle, the general tendency of Catholic teaching is that total abstinence should rest on personal private principle and not on public enactment. Thus LaFollette is equipped with certain strong appeals to the Catholic vote. Moreover, there are many German Catholics who like LaFollette for his attitude toward the war and many Irish Catholics who like him for his favorable view of Irish independence and for his hostility to the League of Nations. HOW TO DETACH CATHOLICS FROM LAFOLLETTE The problem was: How to detach this Catholic vote from LaFollette? A tentative and possible answer was found in LaFollette's support of propositions for curbing the power of the courts. Legislatures in Nebraska and Oregon have passed laws obnoxious and oppressive to Catholics. Courts have overtured those laws. The Nebraska law was a law telling everybody that he must not allow his child to learn a foreign language in a grammar school. The Oregon law was a law telling everybody that he must send his child to a public school, where it happens that the instruction is all secular and none of it religious. These laws were thought by Catholics to be invasions of natural God-given human rights possessed by people over their own actions and over those of their children. The courts came along and said that these laws were also invasions of constitutional rights possessed by all American citizens. Courts therefore threw these laws aside and declared them void. Naturally this circumstance has given many Catholics a certain special regard for courts. To that regard certain Democratial mana- TAKE PART YOURSELF IN THIS FIRST INTER-RACIAL CRUISE IT will be the event of your lifetime this splendid winter cruise to the tropics, with its congenial company, wonderful sightseeing, educational program, sports and good living.

This, coupled with the neglect of Garvey to give his people necessary financial support, turned the whole scheme into a screaming farce. Garvey's agents had to be taken up, fed and supported by soft hearted Liberian women. Meanwhile many Liberians interested in the commercial and industrial aspects of the movement, had invested money in the Black Star Line. They however, soon found themselves losers. The repeatedly advertised sailings of the Black Star ship did not materialize and no dividends ever reached the investors. Measured by the test of practicability and honesty, the U. N. I. A. Proved a failure. Liberians have no patience with failures. And thus Marcus Garvey received his second check. Then ensued lawsuits, alleged assassination and imprisonment—martyrdum Garveyites call it. Most Liberians make not distinction between a man who has been imprisoned on a question of opinion or one who has been locked up for moral delinquencies or crimes. They are equally "jail Birds," and are equally condemned. Now, whether Garvey was imprisoned simply because he was preaching doctrines unpalatable to the white-man, or because he was actually and knowingly a violator of the laws makes no difference. A Large ign Than gers intend to make a steady appeal. RACE AND RELIGION IN 1856 This election is going to be the most racial and religious election since 1856. In 1856 there were three candidates. There was a Democratic candidate, there was a Republican candidate, and there was an "American" candidate. The whole election of 1856 swung on the nga and the Catholic. The Democratic candidate, Jas. Buchanan of Pennsylvania, went along with the southern defenders and maintainers of slavery for Negroes. The Republican candidate, John C. Fremont of California, opposed the extension of slavery into the new territories and states of the Northwest. The "American" candidate Millard Fillmore of New York, ran on a platform which politely (and without any special mention of Catholics) demanded in absolute effect that no Catholic should be permit- TAKE PART FIRST INT IT will be the event of Features - Virginia and North Carolina News - Editorials milestone of progress in the history of race relations—the first cruise with equal treatment for all citizens of good repute.

This might be altogether wrong; but it is the reaction of a certain type of mind to a given state of facts. Most of his followers except a few who still believe in the vision of emancipation under Garvey left the organization. "His Highness," the Supreme Potentate" resigned. Being released from prison, true to his penchant for "Special Commissions" despatched to Liberia a group of men and women furnished with gradilouquent titles, to confer with President King. The President refused to receive them. Failing to make the official contact which they desired, the "Commissioners" turned to influential private individuals for support and assistance. With these gentlemen the "Commissioners" stressed the woes of the downtrodden American Negro, and were not backward in emphasizing the "race-unity" theme, nor to injure their plea with the "civilized reinforcement" idea. This latter thought commanded the attention of these private persons who drew up plans as to how the colonization could be carried out. These plans have never been submitted to the Government, nor has Government assent to them been requested. Some of the gentlemen concerned in this matter, it is quite apparent, have been influenced by mixed motives which it would be er Figure In Any Si ted to hold public office in the United States. United States. Mr. Fillmore carried the state of Maryland. He ran second in California and Delaware. He made a formidable showing in Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Kentucky, Tennessee and Missouri. He accumulated almost 900,000 votes out of a total of approximately 4,000,000. He would have accumulated many more if for factional reasons a large part of the "American" party had not seceded from the "American" party convention and had not indorsed the Republican candidate. Mr. Fremont, as a person even more congenial to their views than Mr. Fillmore. The Democratic party in its platform in 1856 denounced the views of the "American" party. The Republican party in its platform did not. The historical fact is that the Republican party began with an unavoidable alliance with anti-Catholic sentiment. This is part of the reason why most of the AT YOURSEI TER-RACIA your lifetime milestone of interesting to analyze had we the space. We are, however, sure that pure altruism would not emerge from the analysis. The "Commissioners" armed with these private plans, pious aspiration they may with justice be called —returned to America, with what result is made known in the flamboyant phrases of the Negro World. This crusade for the recovery of Africa is to be carried out thru the Liberian gateway. If the Liberian Government is willing, well and good. If the Liberian Government is unresponsive, then the issue is to be forced, arms in hands. The inevitable reaction has followed. The Liberian Government has prohibited for the last few years the entry into the country of Negroes traveling under the auspices of the U. N. I. A. and this doxus will be enforced. Liberians, standing alone and fighting their own national battles for the last hundred years have developed a wide political outlook and a national point of view. We are Africans. The foreign Negro of the Garvey type lacks this. He knows not what he is. If he comes seeking assimilation he will gladly be received. If he comes seeking dominions and to supercede he will be, if necessary, forebly repulsed. Liberians are fully conscious of what their national interests imperatively demand. No one need ever fear that they will knowingly "ride for a fall" nationally. In Since 1856 Catholic vote in the North has ever since been Democratic. LaFollette, therefore, today, in attracting Catholic votes, is hurting Davis more than he is hurting Colledge. The Democrats, therefore, may be expected to be especially emphatic in defending the power of the courts against LaFollette's propositions for curbing that power. The LaFollette managers will respond with a demonstration of LaFollette's well-known personal opposition to legislation which the Catholics for their own reasons dislike. Meanwhile the Republicans will also be attempting to regain from LaFollette their smaller but important proportion of the Catholic vote. The upshot is going to be that there will be more race and religion in this campaign than in any other since the one in which the Republican party made its first national appearance.

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

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1924 A CITIZENSHIP CALL SOUNDED TO RACE WOMEN A CITIZENSHIP CALL SOUNDED TO RACE WOMEN Mrs. Charles Hall, Nationally Known Leader, Issues Call to Women's Clubs Urging Better Organization. Clinton, Ill., Oct. 2—(P. N. S.)—Mrs. Charles E. Hall, wife of the nationally-known Government Expert and Statistician, Charles E. Hall, of Washington, D. C., has just issued a public call to the colored women of the country, urging them to adopt strong ideals in organization, looking to the acquisition of high qualifications as citizens and individuals of broad public spirit. Mrs. Hall says: "I regret to note that the women of our group—Club women in particular—are not alert and active, nor interested in the critical conditions of the age, that they are unmindful of their duties and responsibilities of Citizenship; seemingly they are indifferent or unconscious of the serious political problem in which we should be vitally concerned. "Although unbelievable, there are active forces, which are gradually molding a sentiment in particular organizations to adopt a policy of rampart discrimination. This system will ultimately stigmatize the progressive element, it will finally eliminate members of our group from political recognition, besides it will curtail our activities in the affairs of the nation. "Unless we are willing to admit the lack of training in Club administration, and efficiency in organization, then take immediate steps to correct this evil, we shall be continuously confronted with race problems, we will be permanently ostracized and proscribed, further we shall be derelict in refusing to perform our duty to protect the birthright of our posterity. "Our organized efforts will be of no avail unless our programs consist of practical methods, and are pushed with the same vigor and consistency, and are outlined with the same thought, purpose and determination of other groups. This is the only course that will solve human problems. Do we realize this fact? "Have we a vision? Are we responsive to sympathetic interest? Can we think, feel and act on a common need? Do we believe that "Eternal Vigilance" is the safeguard, not only of Liberty, but the government as well? May I suggest that we start a general movement for Citizenship training and definite training in Club administration and efficiency. "The only feasible way to accomplish this aim is to arouse the conscientious and progressive women to action, to submit a definite program designed to meet the urgent demand of the hour, create a uniform system of action and a method which will gradually and completely form a unit of National power and influence, which will continuously function which will be in a position to settle all important issues and will conciliate all factions. blending harmony and cooperation in all the fields of activity. "Every club woman should pledge to live up to plans, specifications rules and regulations of institutions and organizations, conform to prescribed rules of conduct—observe and adhere to social conventions. She should conduct classes in parliamentary drill, teach the 'American Creed and what you should do as a citizen,' she should freely and openly discuss public questions and political issues; she should carefully study the mechanism of the Government and National Politics—Their Policies and Methods." "I shall be happy to give further suggestions and to outline an additional course pertaining to the above subjects. "It would be commendable for every club to adopt the Central District's Slogan "Every Club & Training Camp for Citizenship." EASTVILLE Eastville, Va.-The Union Baptist Church, Rev. C. H.

FIRST AUTO CLASSIC MARRED BY TRAGEDY two dead, six Others Injured As Result of Thoughtless Spectators Trying to Cross Speedway. Chicago, Ill., Oct. 1—(A. N. P.)—The death of two men, one a spectator and the other a driver and the injury of six others, were the other side of the picture in a brilliant set of races staged by the Colored Automobile Racing Association at Hawthorne race track. These races, promoted by William Bottons, Chicago sportsman and owner of the famous Dreamland cabaret, marked the initial step of local Negro citizens in the direction of an automobile classic, save for the matter of death and injury it was a success in every way. There were more than ten thousand paid admissions, despite unfavorable weather. The dead are: Herbert Edward Wiley, driver who was killed when he made an effort to avoid hitting Fred Shaw, a spectator who ran across the track toward the infield in Wiley's car and two others sped down the track. Shaw was killed instantly. Wiley was thrown out of his car which turned over several times and fell to the ground, sustaining injuries so serious that he died shortly after midnight Sunday morning. All the other injured were drivers: Casey Jones, Sky Banks, Hugh Bailey, William Jeffries, (one of the promoters), Bill Blackman and William Bottoms. FIVE RACES There were five races, a 50-mile test being the feature. It was won by William Carson of the headquarters company of the Eighth Infantry, driving a Betz Special. Second and third in this race went to "Bill Valentine of Indianapolis in a Partner Special and Clifford Jackson in a Dover Special. The time was 1 hour, 2 minutes and 17 seconds. WHITE DRIVER IN RACE Another of the feature tests was a match race between George Beck, crack white driver and William Jeffries a Fronty-Ford. Beck holds the dirt track record at Hawthrone and easily defeated Jeffries, his ability to take turns eliciting the applause of the spectators and drawing him further and further from his competitor. On his last lap the colored driver crept upon him and reduced the winner's marzipan to a car-length. Other races of the day were the "Consolation" held for cars which could not meet the speed test of the big race, and then ten to twenty-mile events. Doe White in a Premier won the 10-mile special in which the six fastest cars qualified. The twenty-mile event went to "Casey" Jones, driving a Frontenac, entered by William Bottoms, and entered after the injury of the latter on Saturday. The Consolation prize went to William Walthrall in the American Giants' entry. Two of the cars entered were built by Negroes, the "Headen Special," constructed by J. A. Headen, which did not qualify for the 50-mile event, but came in second in the Consolation race, and a Smartt Special made by Ben Smartt of Indianapolis. A six months' European tour at a minimum expense for boys between the ages of 14 and 17 years, from all parts of Australia, has been arranged by the Young Australian League.

The votes of Afro-American women are yated as being an important factor in this sampaign by the four outstanding parties each one of which has a prominent woman of the race in charge of a bureau, with a staff of workers under her. This should be a hopeful sign. Mr. Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney-General, has challenged Mr. Wil- liam H. Lewis to a joint debate of the issues of the campaign as they relate to Afro-Ameri- cans. Mr. Lewis is supporting the Democratic candidates and issues. The debate should be @ hummer, if pulled off in Boston, New York or Philadelphia, and a riot should not be looked forward to as a possibility. We should like to be there to hear and witness the fireworks. In his address in Philadelphia, last week at the 160th anniversary of the meeting of the Continental Congress, President Coolidge pro- nounced against public ownership of railroads and other service agencies, which the LaFol- lette people are advocating, and in doing so he, must have a majority.of the American peo- ple with him. We now have more Govern- ment machinery ané officialism than is safe and good for the country. That is to say, we now have too much government not only at Washington but at most of the State capitals of the ‘country. The New Moderator of the Pittsburgh Presbyterians : The most important and significant thing that has happened in church affairs affecting the Afro-American people since the electior of the first bishop of the race by the Methodist Episcopal Church, only a few years ago after years of agitation and bitter feeling, was the recent election of Rev, Charles H. Trusty to b Moderator of the Pittsburgh district, the larg est and most important Presbyterian district in the country. He was elected by only one vote but it is said by those on the inside tha: the honor was deserved because of the ability and splendid work of Dr. Trusty. + Reports sent out from Pittsburgh to daily snewspapers made out a condition of genera “discontent among white Presbyterians over the election of Dr. Trusty, with some specula- tion as to what seminarians who must come ‘under his charge would think about it, Rev, James Egert Allen of Pittsburgh took cx. ‘ception to the report as printed in the New York World, as tending to stir up bad fecling swhere there was none and ‘speculating on what would happen, and the World was brave enough to acknowledge that Dr. Allen was ‘ight in his view of it and that its reporter fwas not justified in the speculative phases ‘of his article. That is what the JourNaL AND ‘Guuve calls clean, high-class journalism, which Jn the main is characteristic of the New York World. © We have made more progress in church ‘atanding than in any other department of hu- man hope and aspiration in the United States, ‘We have our own church denominations, with millions of members, and church property yalues, with our own bishops and superinten- dents and ministers, and we have made a ‘standing in the white church denominations and the general work of the churches that is all very creditable and encouraging. Every advance we make in church standing, such as the election of Dr. Trusty to be Moderator of the Pittsburgh Presbytery helps on the prog- ress of the race to the higher and better things of life, T.

We know that the sons do riot always follow in the foot. “stops of the fathers, nor follow their pursuits “but take up pursuits to their own liking, and that they do not always achieve the measure of success of their fathers, Great men seldom have great sons in the direct line; they often show up in collateral lines, and often become lost and indistinguish- able in them. It happens with most that way. Young Theodore Roosevelt, who hagijyst beon nominated by the Republican conventidi of New York to lead his party in the race for Governor, promises to follow in the footsteps of his father and to illustrate further the re markable genius and character of the Roose. velt blocd to make itself conspicuous in the affairs of the State and Nation, “Those of us who admired Col. Roosevelt the Elder ate gratified at the promise given by the son that he will duplicate his father's wonderful record as a lawgiver, a soldier and an administrator. In all of these departments, except that of the administrator, young Roosevelt has made a creditable record. He is on the way to the Presidency, and, if he should be elected Gov- ernor of New York and make a creditable job of it, he will have gone as far as his father went before becoming President. Because the New York Democrats have gone on record as opposed to discrimination against citizens on account of race, color, creed or nativity, the Republicans in the Rochester convention have done so. It was necessary. Why? Because there are 10,985,227 citizens of New York, 7,785,873 of whom are proscribed by the Klan as against 2,399,364 alleged Nor- dies who are not proscribed. There are many Klansmen in New York, but they are negligible by the side of those who are not, and the New York Republican convention could not over look or ignore this fact without committing hara-kiri with its eyes open. Tt appears to be written in the stars that T.R. the Younger is on the way to the White House, in which his father made so much his- tory,—some that was good and lasting and some that was bad and should pass away.

Good Morning “Mrs” Teacher Se doatiece Ane Bake Rasa RE SRA S Ae Myre None egg tae The National Convention of the Holy Name Societies of the United States, held in the Nation's Capital and culminating in a monster parade, was one of the most refreshing events that has taken place in Washington in many years. Of greater significance, however, than the parade, itself, were the resolutions which were passed at the close of the meeting. The resolutions pledged devotion to the Constitu- tion of the United States, and pronounced re- spect for the peoples of all races and all re- ligious beliefs. They bespoke abhorance for “any organization which seeks to deprive any person or group of persons from the exercise of the inaleinable rights granted to them uncer the Constitution, or the worship of God, acord- ing to the dictates of their conscience, ” There- after, the National Holy Name Society, 75, 000 strong, with hundreds of Negroes in its front ranks, marched in solemn sincerity up the historic Pennsylvania avenue, for review by President Coolidge and the High Church Staff, proclaiming its faith and sealing its preaching by its practice. The Holy Name Socicty is a subsidiary institution of the Roman Catholic Church, by far the mightiest church organization in Amer- ica. The Catholic Church, like all other churches, has had its defects. But it cannot be said, with any degree of proof, that the Catholic Church has ever turned its back upon the struggling black man, at home ar abroad. This virtuous mark cannot, we regret to say, be given to the Protestant Church, some branches of which have continually sought to carry racial hatred into the church. It is well remembered that in Washington, some years ago, the Protestant Sunday School Parade Committee sought to bring embarrassment through racial prejudices, to the black boys and girls of Protestant cleavage, who, in pa- rade formation, sought to honor the name of God. Particularly at this time, when the, Prot- estant Church, through a section of its clergy and membership, has outwardly joined hands with the Ku Klux Klan, having as one of its unhappy purposes, the oppression of America’s struggling black people, it is like discovering an oasis in the desert to find the Holy Name Society and the great Catholic Church stand- ing firm, in session and in open, for the full heritage which America has pledged herself ‘on the record at least, to bequeath to its Ne- gro content. Individuals, of course, are at fault here and there in the Catholic Church as well as elsewhere, and frequently they gast dark shadows upon the history of their group organ- ization, But, when concerted action is needed, when outward or inward approval of the black man’s rights, in or out of the Church, are’ be- fore the house for consideration and settlethent the Roman Catholic Church can always be re; lied upon to Stand Up For Jegus—and for ‘His children, regardless of their color. . Upon a technicality, which, under careful analysis, loses all its weight, our old friend, Jefferson S, Coage, of Delaware, was stopped from becoming a candidate for election :to the State Legislature. The state election author- ities held that Mr. Coage, who is tempotatily engaged in business in the District of Colum. hia, did not meet the state law requirements of three years continuous residence in the State of Delaware. It appears that the word ‘“Snhabitant” is used in the state law, and that Lthe election authorities misconstrued this term ‘as‘having the same meaning as “domicile.” Thereafter, it was held that Mr. Coage, whe had not been continuously domiciled in the State, because of various absences as Commis. [sioner to the Virgin Islands and in the Dis. trict of Columbia; was unable to comply with the “inhabitant” section of the state election law, and, resultantly, could not become a can- didate for a state office. Without any desire to burden the patient readers of this column with the spirit of Black- stone, Kent, or the late Mr. Justice Harlan, but with the purpose of conclusively showing that Mr. Coage was entitled to seek the candi- dacy, we shall briefly show that resident aud inhabitant are of one and the same legal con- stituency, and that “domicile” improperly be: clouded the legal minds of those who invoked a technicality in Mr. Coage's disfavor: ‘A soldier in the field retains his residence from which he has come, He has no residence in the field, Graham v. Com. 88 Am. Dee. 581.” “Mere physical absence, with the intention to return, does not discontinue residence in a place,” “When a person has two residences at dif- ferent seasons of the year, that will be deemed his domicile or home which he himself selects or describes as his home, or where he votes or exercises the duties of a citizen. People v. Putnam, 36 Hun., (N. Y.) 218220.” “One is an inhabitant of a place'from which his departure is indefinite as to time, definite ‘as to purpose, and for this purpose he has made the place his temporary abode. Brisen- den v. Chamberlin, 53 Fed., 307, 311.” “Domicile,” being merely the place where one eats and sleeps, can in no wise be accred- ited with the characteristics of a residence- ship or inhabitancy, which, under the law, are ‘one and the same, Taking into the Coage case the additional fact that while he was temporarily absent in the District of Colum- bia, a federal territory, in which he had no note nor state citizenship, being merely @ cit- izen of the United States, it follows that since, under the U. S. Constitution, he still retained his rights as a citizen of the State of Delaware, in which he had exercised the right of suf- frage and other citizenship privileges for more than 26 years, naught could be properly done by the state election officials to dissolve his privilege of candidacy under the state law. ‘The error is obvious, and the incident is to be regretted. ony LEWIS MassaniURG | thera Ne PS The visiting card of the Chinese origin. ‘The Chinese have always observed the strictest ceremony with regard to the paying of vis: its, It is reported that more than a thousand years ago the visiting card was used in China, Nowa- days the cards used are very large, and usually of a bright red color’ The Chinese employ visiting cards to assist their courtship, — When a man is ready to marry, his par- ents inform a professional “mateh- maker,” who looks through a list of her clients and, after due con- sideration, selects the one she con- siders would make « suitable bride.

Compulsory shaving and the close ‘cropping of hair were signs of degradition, This is borne out by Assyrian sculpture, which always show kings with beards and long hair, and slaves with close-cropped hair’ and clean-shaven faces, The Egyptians, however, had different ideas. They considered that hair was a source of dirt, and shaved both face and head. ‘Their slaves and servants were compelled to do the same, ‘The early Greeks and Romans, shaved off thelr beards hecause they gave the enemy a good hold in hand-to-had fighting. It is record. ed that Alexander the Great or- dered his soldiers to shave for this reason, It was the custom among Romans to shave off the beard at the age of twenty-one, and present it as an offering to the household gods. A beard was grown after age only as a sign of mourning. there ig One day during the year upon which the Indian’ Govern- ment has decreed that Hindoo: may lawfully gamble. ‘That day is Devali—the Day of Light, which is dedicated to the Hindoo God Ram, in celebration of his corona- tion, and of this day the devotees of the religion take great advan. tage.

Our ears pricked up when we heard a little tot gleefully exclaim: “Good morning, Mrs. Teacher; I don’t know your new name.” Curiosity led us to eaves: drop upon the dialogue long enough to discover that the mature dispenser of lessons in read- in’ and writin’ was no longer a maiden. She was, in fact, 2 matron, and had, with hubby, locked up the cosy fiat, prepared lunches for two, and with him departed to take her cus: tomary place among the world’s wage-earners. Further inquiry divulged the fact that this year's group of school kiddies, who had not closely followed up marriage records of the District of Columbia, had a hard time in ac- quiring a knowledge of the proper accent and spelling of the names of their newly-wed pre- coptresses. Gloom pervaded the ranks of the training school teachers, who hoped to draw a lucky appointment next year; for, as one maiden lassie dolefully said: “What chance have we with so many married women after our pros- pective jobs? There's Mrs. Blank, for in- stance, whose hushand has a ten thousand practice, while my dad's only fireman down at the engine house. J want a job so I can help him finish paying for our home. But, gec whiz, the outlook is rotten. Why I understand that three well-to-do married women are en- tering the training class tomorrow.” Later when we met Bill Smith, who has a little news stand over ner Union Station, he was down in the mouth. “My poor girl stood high in her class,” he said, with a sigh, “but Mrs, Jones asked for reinstatement and she was appointed to the job my girlie thought she'd gel. Oh, she’s working, though,” he con- tinued, with a weak smile: “she’s doing light general housework out at Mt. Pleasant That's better than nothing. She didn’t need French and Trigonometry for that work,” Bill con- cluded, dismally. In dismay we rushed for a street car, all ready for a hard day’s work. A Packard “Big Six” nearly swept us away as we started to board the approaching car, just in front of Finley Wilson’s office. “Pardon me,” said the lady driver, whom we recognized as Mrs. Brown. “You see,” she said blithly, as. she prepared to engage the clutch, “We're having recess at my school, and, just think, I came all the way from home and forgot to bring my vanity case, and I'm in a great hurry.” ‘And as Dame Teacher rushed on her way we drifted off to the old rolltop desk, with many misgivings. like France or Norway, have strongly defined national _senti- ments, the people are descended from all manner of racial stocks, Certainly this is true in Great Britian, and we know it to be true in the United States.
