a result of the slaying Saturday
night of Mrs. Mary Spencer who
regides near Raleigh.
Pencheck is held without bail at the county jail. The indictment was based on evidence prepared by Sheriff Will Knight and after more than a dozen witness produced by the sheriff had been heard by the inquisitorial body. Deputy Sheriff Joe Hendricks, a regular deputy of Sheriff Knight's staff is named as prosecutor in the complaint against Pencheck.
The latter was arrested Monday night by the sheriff following a two-day investigation. The woman was killed while deputies and three other deputies were bringing the forked prisoners to the county jail. The woman was riding in another automobile enroute home. As the two cars passed, according to Sheriff Knight, Pencheck drew his pistol and shot at the other car, one of the bullets striking the woman in the back of the head.
Wholesale Investigation May Be Made
The matter was not reported by the deputies to their chief, his first intimation coming from persons in Ralshig. For failure to promptly make a report to him, the other deputies Walter Shipp, A. V. Keith and C. L. Perkins, were summarily dismissed by Sheriff Knight. The incident prompted to a wholesale investigation of deputies attached to magistrates offices it would aid yesterday. Peachback had been appointed on Squire Finley's recommendation.

O'Leary, white, African Republican, who, however, states that he is mindful of certain things he have been made by the Robbins party in its stewardship of the Negro citizenship, is a caused a bill of gloom to pervade the hearts of the many people who desired to see the colored attorney elevated to the bench.
Women Are Active
Miss Eva Chee, representing the Miss Dawes Club, and Mrs. L. A. Pinkney, representing the Women's Political Study Club, formerly guided by Attorney Jeanette Carter, who is now at the New York Headquarters, are making their organizations function in line shape. The wonderment here, however, is caused by a slight weakness in the coalition and cooperation of the two feminine organizations, both of which are striving for the same results. It is rumored that one of these organizations claims to be the colony of the Dawes Club of Columbia, which received the official recognition of the Republican National Committee. This allegation is causing a deal of mental restenances on the part of members of the rival organizations, who are singing "What'll I Do?" when the political plan is cut, that is, if there is to be any, in this connection, which is a dark horse entry, which is zealously engaged in the dissemination of Republican literature. This entry is known as the Negro Outlook League; but no one seems to know who comprises the League. It is just as mysterious as was our one time contemporary, as the Lincoln New Service written beautifully, and carries a stiff wollipin in behalf of Republicanism. Beginning Democrats in City:

South Will Disapprove

Cohen is not a citizen of the United States but is "person of African blood and descent and is inherently incapable of being a citizen of the United States." But what of the Fourteenth Amendment which declares that all persons born and naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the States wherein they reside? Not worth the paper it is written on, according to counsel for the petitions. After delving into the history of its ratification, he has reached the conclusion (1) that the amendment was drafted in conspiracy; (2) that it was never ratified by three-fourths of the States as required by the Constitution; (3) that eleven States at the time of the adoption of the resolution by Congress, were unconstitutionally deprived of their equal suffrage in the Senate; (4) that six States were forced to ratify it by exercision; (5) and that Congress did unlawfully proclaim it ratified and part of the Constitution.
"We have no doubt that many of the Southern Somatics and Representatives who voted to submit the Fourteenth Amendment did so without support from the constituencies for which they sat." And the story of the railroading of the amendment through Southern Legislatures is unpleasant reading. And twenty years after the Fourteenth Amendment was passed of irregularity. Except at New Orleans, where there is temporary discontent with a piece of Republican political jibbery, there is no desire anywhere in the South to troop an issue that was settled more than half a century ago in accord with what is now recognized as elemental justice. The manner of ratification of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments was far from ideal, but the amendments themselves have earned their title to Southern representation. The people of New Orleans are ready to fight for the disfranchisement of a whole people in order to rid themselves of a political appointee of whom they do not approve, they will have to fight alone. The rest of the South will not accompany them in a futile expedition to overthrow the Fourteenth Amendment and return to the decision on Dred Scott."

HAMPTON ROMPS ON DURHAM STATE NORMAL IN SEASON'S FIRST GAME 32-0
Hampton, Va. Oct 4—Hampton Institute emerged victorious over the eleven representing Durham State Normal School in a spasmodically interesting and occasionally brilliant contest on Armstrong Field by the score of 32 to 0, in her first game of the season and the first game she has played with the North Carolina team. After a somewhat determined stand under the shadow of her goalpost in the first quarter, the "Tar Hedl" team quickly lost its obvious enthusiasm. With the passing of the fine spirit with which she took the field also went her teamwork and effectiveness.
The Durham team came to Hampton with a record, or at least the reputation, of being capable of forcing the best teams to use their most strategic football attacks to win. The Hampton coaches had put the team on edge for anything that might have happened. The unexpectedly weak showing of Durham showed up Hampton's offense by a wide margin for awhile, but Hampton was balanced in all departments of the game. Together with powerful line rushes by the backs and an occasional pass, Hampton scored almost at will. No combination stayed in the game for more than a quarter at one time, but all worked well as a whole. The coaches feel, however that several things must be smoothed out before the season progresses much farther. Several things, they indicated, were not to

Oscar Pindle was playing Rufus Hammond, teredied with being one of the best centers in the country; but against the fine work of the Hampton pivot man, Hammond did not show the outstanding abilities to be classed with Pindle. George Davis, substitute end from last year, and Dunlap Jones both played an aggressive, hard-tackling game, and showed to advantage on left end. "Hinnicn" Jones, last year's star end, starred on both offense and defense. Creasy and Leo at tackle, and T. J. Coleman and Alexander at guard completed the line and, taken as a whole, did splendid work. Gunn showed to good advantage as a plunger and a kicker. Durham kicked to Hampton's 5-yard line and Jacobs ran it back 9 yards. After Mansfield and Hargrove had made good gains, Hampton was penalized twice and put on her 5-yard line. Hargrove made 6 yards and Jacobs kicked. The player who received the punt was substantiated in his claim that he signalled for a fair catch and a 5-yard penalty resulted, putting the ball on Hampton's 12-yard line. Kutall hit the line for two yards. First quarter ended with the ball in Durham's possession on Hampton's 11-yard line.
The last three quarters brought forth the same story, with Hamp-

ton having the advantage in punting, line-smashing, her occasional passes, and a superior defense. Durham made a determined stand once or twice during the game, and with the line work of Coward, Nutall, Stroud, Wilson, and Hammond, she put up a good fight at times. The final touchdown was secured by Thatcher after Gaston, a Kentucky product, Mansfield, and he had battered their way down the field. With the ball on the 3-yard line. Gaston gained two and Thatcher made the final line smash for the fifth touchdown. Jacobs kicked for extra point. Soon after this the game ended with a final score of 32 to 0 in favor of the Hamilton gridders.

The dust of the caravan is looming over the gridiron and when the din and smoke die away, the season of gorefest in Norfolk will be underway with banners galantly streaming; will there be any clamor? Is a cheer leader like a clam when his team scores? Is a reference called a gentleman when he renders a bum decision? The racket will swell the air, because the Norfolk Athletic Club, crack local aggregation will trot out from the paddock to take to the green turfed and white chalked field to tangle with the strong (if it is still strong) Newport News "Y" eleven Monday, October 13, at League Park.
Though games seemed as if they were a long ways up the road to the local team, the squad never ceased the nightly workouts and after having reached the turning point in the the long lane which inevitably comes the men have taken on renewed vigor, so well oil the machine to take the measure of the hefty Shipbuilders.

Newport News "Y" will come to Norfolk with eyes blood shot with revenge for the trouncing received at the hands of N. A. C. last season. Piggy Harrison's team did exactly to the "Y" last year what the Norfolk News boys did in 1922 and that is, out playing opponents in every department of the game. The Norfolk Athletic Club has added new material, including a player from Johnson C. Smith University and a general shakeup has taken place. One or two of the big men who have been playing in the backfield will be placed in the line for reinforcement and speed-

THOMAS MEIGHAN IN "CONFIDENCE MAN" YEAR'S GREATEST PICTURE WILL APPEAR AT THE ATTUCKS
Next Week's Program Contains Other Big Attractions Such as Have Never Been Seen Before in This Popular Theatre
ATTUCKS WORLD'S LARGEST AN DMOST BEAU- FUL COLOR THEATRE.
Thomas. Meighan's New Paramount picture, "The Confidence Man," which will be shown for the first time at the Attucks Theatre, Monday and Tuesday of next week is a ecko romance with a brand new angle and bristling with punch—and not unlike "The Miracle Man."
Meighan chose it from over one hundred and fifty stories that he considered. It was written by Laurie York Erskine and Robert H. Davis and ran as a serial in Argosy All Story Weekly. So did the "Miracle Man." Victor Heerman directed, and the supposing cast is AA-1.
In the story, the strongest Meighan has had in months, the star has the role of Dan Corvan, the greatest of all confidence men. He is the master-mind type of crook rather than the plug-ugly kind. Corvan hooks an old sucker, Queritt, falls in love with a young country girl, (Virginia Valli) plays philanthropist to get "in right" with the town-folk, collects from Queritt and prepares to skip town. But the real action starts when Corvan is exposed for the crook he is. Laurence Wheat and Chas. Dow Clark have prominent supporting roles in the cast. Others include Helen Lindroth, Jimmy Lapsley, Margaret Seeldon, David Higgins, George Nash and Dorothy Walters.
K. CITY TAKES OPENING GAME OF SERIES 6-2
Kansas City Takes Opening Game. Bullet" Rogan Heroed Himself To Fame In Grculling Clash.
National League Park, Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 3—P. N. S. "Bullet" Rogan, of Western fame, and one of the old school, "heroed" his way to a place among baseball's immortals here, when sweeping from the mound with a world of speed and a puzzling sidearm delivery, he quieted the much vaunted offensive of the Hildale club and won the first game of the East-West world series for Kansas City, 6-2.
Although touched up for eight singles, two of which were doubles, Rogan proved invincible when runners were on the pathways and it was not until two men had been retired in the ninth inning, that "Nip" Winters, pinch hitting for T. Allen, singled through second and sent two men across the rubber, breaking the long row of "goose-eyes."
Hilldale cracked wide open in the sixth, and three hits, five errors, of which Cockrell donated three, and a walk, gave the Monarchs five runs and the game. A spectacular circular catch by G. Johnson in the first inning of Newt Allen's bid for the extra base hit and the superb fielding of the Kansas City infield featured the contest. The score:

"Code of the Sea"
Weds. and Thurs.
If it's action you're looking for, here it is—PLUS in the Paramount picture, "Code of the Sea," which will open at the Attucks Theatre Wednesday and Thursday of next week. Rod La Rocque and Jacqueline Logan are featured in the principal roles of the production, directed by Victor Fleming.
"After "The Ten Commandments" and "The Dawn of a Tomorrow" it's a pretty hard thing to find a more popular combination than La Rocque and Miss Logan. Any picture, either of this pair appear in, is certain to be a sure fire hit, and, judging from the reception accorded it in other cities, "Code of the Sea" is more of a knockout than a hit.
There's not a moment during the running of the picture, when you are not sitting on the edge of your seat—opened mouthed, wondering when a big wave is coming down upon La Rochue in his small boat and send him hurtling into the sea or when you're not trying to decide just when this same player is going to "snap out of it" and show these 'clever' scanners a thing or two. He's a coward, yes, but when the 'only girl in the world' tells him that she believes in him—that knows he can and will overcome his cowardice—then things begin to happen.

William deMille and Clara Beranger have done the unusual in keeping audiences in the dark about the guilty one in the picture, and it is solely for the purpose of heightening the drawing power of the production that we have decided to keep the details a secret here.
Here's a picture packed with tense, thrilling situations that will keep audiences on the edge of their chairs throughout. Mr. deMille was very keen for the story and has given you a most careful production, with the box-office continually in view. To take the director's own words for it "I am working now to please the 90,000,000 instead of the 9,000,000," "Icebound" was the first evidence of this, and now comes "The Bedroom Window" for you to pass your judgment on.

Wheedle gets a good kick while "Bumble" Brown flies down the field and nailed Russell in his tracks. Russell kicks to Wheedle who w fumbles. Biddle marches to Seminary's 10-yard line and is held for downs. From then on the game was replete with thrills as well as fumbles. Biddle out plays Seminary in the first half making more first downs and after a penalty holds on bop 1-yard line. Makes two costly fumbles and failed to fathom Seminary's forward pass system.
The second half of the game the dragons had been given instructions to hit the line low and hard and obeying instructions proved deadly to Biddle. Time and again plunges by Lander and Perry and end runs by Holland and Wheedbee proved disastrous for the "Tar Heel" aggregation.
"Bumble Brown was the sensation of the game. Though it was his first game on end he was a demon, breaking up every play directed his way and not only was he a defensive star, but was the big gun on the offensive, catching two passes for touchdowns and brought the spectators to their feet when he leaped in the air, snatched the ball with one hand while falling landing on his head, but held the ball.
"Red" Pope, formerly of Shaw University, was a great factor in the victory. Time and again he paved-the way for long runs by taking out men. Tucker was also there in the line by Pope, tackling and smashing up plays.

Clancies Would Not Play Against Dark Brown Afro-Americans, But Pass On Darker Hued Hawaiian
The little incident that occurred at League Park last Sunday was as much unlike that which occurred in the scheduled game between Washington and Jefferson, Northern university and Washington and Loe, a Southern university as the "Silent Sphing" and a radio loud speaker, because when a local white football eleven from Brambleton refused to play against a colored man who was a member of a visiting Navy team, the game went on as per scheduled.
rooting wind. were also get a chick them start with the the game did, the swamped back and a number against New York.
The Clancy Athletic Club was matched to play the U. S. S. Idaho last Sunday at League Park, where a game is held every Sunday between white football clubs round and about Norfolk, but owing to some difficulties, the Idaho team could not play and the squad from the U. S. S. New York was substituted to fill the bill. On the team of the latter, was a colored player who has been in the service for seven and a half years and actively engaged in football but when he was sent into the game officials protested, stating that it was a rule of the local teams not to compete against colored athletes, according to Chamberlain, the player in question. Navy officials of the football team insisted, but to no avail, and Chamberlain had to witness the game from the sidelines like the fans. However, another player was sent into the fray whose skin was even darker than that of Chamberlain, but he was a dark brown Hawaiian Islander. The Clancy Club, again put up a protest, but after it found out that the Pacific islander was not of AI-
rican descent, all was well and the game progressed as if nothing had happened. Both, the Hawaiian and the Afro-American are team and shipmates, eating, sleeping a lot playing together, but the latter had to remain out of the game while the former went in, just because one was one, and the other another.
When the Washington and Lee aggregation journeyed from its home in the Southland to match wits with Washington and Jefferson University, the officials of the Southern team protested against West of W. and J., who is also an Afro-American, stating that it was the tradition of their school for athletics not to enter any competition with colored athletes, but the president of the Northern school replied, that he respected the tradition of Washington and Lee University, but Washington and Jefferson also had tradition and West was a bona fide student, gentleman, exceptional athlete and a credit to the school and if he did not play there would be no game. He further stated that, his school barred no student from participation in any of the school's activities, on account of color, race or creed.
F. D. Chamberlain is a fireman in the service and his home is in Newport News, Va. Last Sunday's game was the first, in which he was attempted to be played, in the South. He expressed his doubts to the reporter, as to being allowed to play. He said that he was lined up with the first string men to start the game but still being in doubt, he made his arrival at the park late.
Colored fans readily voiced their disapproval of the actions of the Claney A. C. and gave the squad the royal zazzberry in a thunderous manner and booed the team throughout the remainder of the game. They have always rooted strongly for the Brambleton team, but the

rooting shifted as quick as this wind. Chamberlain's shipmates were also pulling strong for him to get a chance in the fray. Some of us stated that he is a holy terror with the pigskin and instead of the game coming out zip-pip as it did, the local team would have been swamped. Chamberlain is a half-back and has been responsible for a number of the tallies registered against opponents of the U. S. S. New York. Sunday's game was the first game of the season. Last year the team only lost one game and that was by a score of 3-0.
Death Claims Football Victim
Johnson, Howard's End, Dies of Injuries Sus tained in Howard-A. & T. Game.
Lawrenceville, Va., Oct. 6-The St. Paul-Howard game, a game on which the eyes of the C. L. A. A. were focused, scheduled for Saturday, October 11th, has been cancelled because of the death of Johnson. Howard's great end, prominent athlete and brilliant student. His untimely death resulted from injuries sustained in the Howard-A. & T. game, the details of which have not been released.
St. Paul lamented Johnson's demise. A gloom was cast over the faculty and students of St. Paul when the sad news was read at evening prayers on Monday the 6th Football was forgotten, and that great spirit of rivalry between Howard University and St. Paul School was relegated to the things of the post as six hundred colts joined in "Amen" at the end of the prayer offered by Rev. A. Alvin Russell, vice-principal, for the bereaved family. Mr. Russell's words of regret and sympathy were keenly felt, particularly by the members of the "Wonder Team" who knew the caliber of the late Speed Johnson out of whose respect the biggest game on the C.

Tuskegee Routs 24th Infantry
Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, October 8—The football season opened at Tuskegee Institute Saturday afternoon when the Tuskegee Tigers defeated the strong Twenty-fourth Infantry队 21-0. The game was riddled with thrills, the greatest of which was the 88-rank run by Stevenson, the Tigers triple threat man, for the first touchdown of the season. Vying with the thrills occasioned by sweeping ends runs, by Williams, of the Twenty-fourth Infantry; the off-tackle smashes of Wooden, Bailey, Joyner and Stewart and the broken field running of Smith, were frequent fumbling and ill-timing of plays in which Tuskegee was the chief offender.
Georgians Prepare For Deughty Carolinians In A Slated Tough Struggle
*Alanta*, Ga., Oct. 8 - For two
two weeks four teams have been
put through strenuous practice by
Coach B. T. Harvey. The squad is now in excellent condition, and with a few more days left for
rounding off the sharp corners, Coach Harvey promises a smooth
working team to go into action
against the much heralded Benedict eleven.
Ex-captain Charles Kelley, who is teaching at the Atlanta High School is helping Coach Harvey whip the backfield into shape. Captain "Key West" trying premier tackle, arrived late but in good condition. He expects to lead his team through a victorious season. A number of new men are showing up good. "Skeeziz" Harrison of Chicago has been calling signals for the first team. So far he has shown up line. Two are pushing him for his job; Scott of Jackson College and Nabrit. Several men have tried out for the full position. "Midget" Greegs, a 290 pound, witch a little more experience might do but for the present Dago of Georgia State books better.

ATLANTASQUAD READY FOR THE SEASON'S GRID
Crimson Hurricane To Face Tough Going; First Game With U. S. 24 Infantry.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct 9. With three weeks of hard training safely chalked away on the credit side of the ledger, the Atlanta "crimson hurricane" closed the practices with a series of brilliant and well-executed signal drills, interspersed with thirty minutes of scrimming, in anticipation of one of the hardest schedules on record. The opening game is with Uncle Sam's huskies, the 24th infantry, on October 11.

BOOKERS SCALP ROYAL SOCIAL CLUB AFTER GETTING UNDERWAY IN BAD FORM IN OPENING STANZA
Coach Wilson's New Material Shows Up to Good Advantage in Opening Game. Ross, Coble, William,s, Boyd and Taylor Star
Loose playing in the first period, an early touchdown, long forward passes, sweeping darts around ends, spectacular sprints down the gridiron, the wild blare of music in the air and a large gallery of wild-eyed fans reveling in piknik gorefest, marked the opening jamboree of the season between Washington high school and the Royal Social Hall at League of Legends, of last year which the game former was on the big end of the three tallies made during the session.
Both teams and coaches were fully confident that victory would not be denied them and they entered the fray with a zest and determination that made a good game, in spite of costly fumigation delays and a little bad judgment on the part of the officials.
In Friday's game, it was the first time that Norfolk has ever had any part of the touch of a college town when local elevenes were lined up on the day's menu. Bright ribbons and banners were streaming and a band with lively music leading one squad, the grass-covered bent color to that would do justice to college elevenes. The Educators received the ball on their 1-yard line and advanced it to their 20-yard line before the runner was brought down. On the second play the ball was fumbled only to be recovered by opponents in striking position. The Bear's C. Cass held for downs. The owl went over to the high school and it was forced to kick out of danger. Royals recovered and pushed the ball down into the danger zone and completed a forward pass that netted their first and only score. After the opposing team threatened to score again, the high school eleven tightened up and showed its ability in every playing moment of its components in every document of the game.
In the second stamina, Booker T. Washington had the ball in its possession and started a grand march down the field only to lose the ball on downs far down into the territory of the Ravens. R. C. was forced to kick out and Washington took the offensive again. Taylor took the owl for a distance of 12 yard and Coble repeated with

another 12-yard run. In a fake play near the side line netted high school 5 more yards and Hart followed with ripping off ten. High school attempted a forward pass, which was incomplete behind the goal, giving the pigskin to opponents on their 20-yard line. The Educators again recovered the ball after Royal S. C. was forced to kick and carried it within striking distance of the goal and made the sad mistake of attempting passes, thus losing to their opponents. High School hit Royal S. C. recovered again when the Royal S. C. recovered and completed its first pass of the game. Coble to Boyd for 10 yards. The first half ended with the ball in possession of Booker Washington under the shadow of their opponents goal fighting furiously to tally.
At the opening of the second half the Royal S. C. received the ball on its 7-yard line and d advanced it to its 30-yard line, where the runner was brought down. Royal S. C. back was thrown for a loss of five yards on the first play, followed by a lobbed and Washington covered and Williams followed with a six-yard run through the line, then high school completed a pass. Coble to Boyd for 20-yards, which netted its first score.
The playing of the Royal S. C. left end, Toliver was good. He was in every play that started his way. High school had now, got a pass to the goal, proved costly in the early stance of the game and in the third period, was launching a mud drive to win the game.
Ross, a new man was sent in and showed up to good advantage, ripping off nine yards as soon as he entered the fray. The Educators completed another pass which not only saved the yards, they kicked his best in the opening game, followed with 12 yards, but the Bookers lost the ball on downs and the Royal S. C. Threatened to tally again, only to have the attempted onslaught checked by Washington. who had now, struck its stride and was working with deadly precision, by S. S. Kick, high school recovered and began another march in the fourth quarter.
High school completed one of the longest passes in the game, Cable to Ross for 40 yards, followed with another, Cable to Boyd for 12 yards. The oval was then in striking distance of the opponents goal and Taylor carried it over. After receiving the ball from the kick off, the Royal S. C. was forced to kick. Taylor received the punt cut and did a spectacular broken field run, but the officials called him back to where his knees first touched the ground when an opponents attempted to bring him down.
The game ended with the ball in the possession of the Royal S. C. far down in its territory. Out of eleven attempts at forward passes, Booker Washington completed six. Royal S. C. completed one out of five attempts. High school made 15 first downs to their opponents

EDUCATORS LINED
WITH TOUGH FOES
Plans have been completed for the scheduled game between Washington and Ramone high schools Friday, October 10, at League Park.
This will be the first tough game on the menu of the Educators and the squad will have in this game an opportunity to show its mettle. By no means have the Ramone eleven, a bunch of dubs lined up with the aggregation. The school took the game from Armstrong, of Washington last season and that is saying a great deal, but Coach Wilson feels confident that his squadron will be on the big end of the score when the final whistle is sounded. Ramone will come to its city for the first time and with a record, but Booker Washington also has a record and the game will no doubt be a battle to maintain those.
From all indications the local eleven has a strong first line of defense, which is well backed up by reserves of no little ability and the game ought to be one of the best of the season in high school realms. Spirit is already running high for this game and the Educators will be supported by the entire student body.

Richmond, Va., Oct. 9—Now that Coach Harvey has put his grid proteges through a strenuous course of Western football education, the well-oiled Panther machine is prepared to battle the strong A. and T. college eleven in their bid in N. C. Saturday.
Reports coming from the big A. and Howard trauggle in Washington last week ended 6:0, indicate that the North Carolina's line is unusually strong, and it is believed that at this point the talk of the struggling will originate.
rate many of the wise ones are beginning to say that, as goes the Tidewater Classic so goes the championship for 1924.
Many are of the opinion that the team coming out victorious in the approaching encounter will have confidence and stamina enough to withstand any attack for the remainder of the season.
With the veterans Barkside, Derritt, Capt. Corrothers, and Houston tracking, charging and blocking viciously and Lightfoot, and the sensational center, Tobin Howard Brooks, Capt. Jackson and Union's line may develop into a veritable stone wall. The plunging, running and tracking ability of the backfield is practically assured and reports are to the effect that Allan Jackson, former All-American quarterback will be back the versity this season. A real big intercollege classic with Lincoln University at Norfolk, on October 27. An excursion will be run for the benefit of red and steel followers. Rivalry is keen and Norfolk is an ideal golf town, so one of the greatest gold classics ever staged should materialize. By arrangement an excursion cost of $3.50 roundtrip is offered to the public.
The entire Tidewater section is preparing to celebrate Monday, October 27, as a gain day on account of the Lincoln-Union game. The game is causing a little comment among the numerous football fans of this vicinity. Both teams will he largely supported here due to the large number of students attending both schools and to the large, number of followers that will accompany each squad to Norfolk, nothing is being left in the league in making this affair one of the greatest of the season.

and a much bigger man than Dempsey, and a fine defensive boxer, would smother Dempsey's attack. I doubt that Wills could knock him out. But he would outpoint Dempsey and get the decision, if a decision were allowed. Dempsey wouldn't hit Wills even as often as he hit Gibbons and Gibbons left the ring unmarked.

Many are of the opinion that the team coming out victorious in the approaching encounter will have confidence and stamina enough to withstand any attack for the remainder of the season.
From early season indications, it is evident that both teams will have lightning backfields and a fairly good lines and with the bulk of the work both on the offensive and defensive falling to the ends. Even at this point both teams will have one of the few end and the other a matter of uncertainty. The Lincolniites therefore have been able to swing a terrible interference into play for their backs but are likely to find an unexpected counter attack in the sharp and fast cutting of

Washington, D. C., Oct. 9—The Howard University football team in its initial game of the season played against the North Carolina Agricultural and Technical College, of Greensboro, N. C., on the University Campus, Friday, October 3rd, was held to a no score tie. In this first test, the Howard team showed strength in its line of play, but the backfield was wanting in punch at the critical periods. Numerous first downs were made against the North Carolina aggregation by the Howard boys, whereas not one was made against them. Throughout the game it looked as though the Howard team would score despite the fact that the North Carolina team had not and seated in prime condition, Howard threatened the A, and T. College goal three times and two attempts for dropkick were made both of which narrowly failed.

Cain, a youngster from West Virginia, is really a "fund of the season" and an enraged enoyee who gives a good account of himself. His dazzling speed and abundance of pep will make him a valuable addition to the panther squad. Coach Harvey can boost of two sleeper hammer mukers in Motten and Shields.

CHURCH
In the absence of Rev. E. E. Smith, who has been conducting revival services and who was recently called out of the city, Rev. C. M.

The sermon delivered was from the text, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoseover believeth on him should not perish but have everlasting life." Subject: "God's greatest gift to the world." Behind every statement of a discourse that kept his hearers wrought up cotinally to the high point of interest, there was a power and force that carried conviction home to the minds of all present. Analytical and illuminating, the sermon indicated clearly the need of redemption, what the gift of Christ means to an unregenerated world, and God's great and eternal love for humanity.

The governors contest, which has caused such a stir, in the church and community, is progressing nicely with Bro. Green leading this week. The B. Y. P. U. has launched a juvenile orchestra under the leadership of Bro. Williams. They bid fair to become one of the greatest musical aggregations of the city.

The Sunday school presented a beautiful aspect on last Sunday when every class was recruited to its full strength. The pastor, Rev. Johnson, is still preaching the gospel with added power and large audiences greet him on almost every occasion. The growth of the congregation has been marvelous during his administration and a larger auditorium is inevitable. Contributions for the day, $105.18.
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
Home Coming Day was observed in our church last Sunday. The weather was almost ideal for church going and Mr. Geo. Ward, chairman of the general committee, sent cars for 32 aged persons in order that they might be present on that occasion. Some of them came in with shout of rejoicing on their lips for the privilege. A symposium, Our Church as a Community Center," was well discussed by Misses Anderson, Ryland and Messrs, Hall, Sawyer. Mrs. A. C. Anthony delivered the welcome address and Miss Whitehurst was mistress of ceremony. Rev. Bowling delivered a very appropriate sermon: "Samuel's Rally Cry." I. Sam. 11:14.
In the afternoon, Mrs. M. E. Gordon, led the women of the church and community in a Home Coming Day Hike out to the Church Home. There a splendid program was rendered and a collection of nearly $50.00 was lifted for the Home.
The Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. caught the spirit of the day seemingly, for they too had on extra attractions which were enjoyed by all present.
At night Memorial services in honor of the year's dead were held, Rev. Bowling's sermon was in keeping with the occasion: "Dying in the Faith." Heb 11:13. Sixty-seven Candles in the shape of a cross, representing the years' dead were burning and as the church clerk called the names of the deceased, the chairman of the deacon board snuffed candles. The Silver Leaf Quartette sang very effectively: "Lead Kindly Light." Miss Eva Scott served as mistress of ceremony. Thus ended a glorious day in the Homelike Church, where everybody is welcomed.
Resolutions
HOLY TEMPLE CHURCH
We, the officers and members of Holy Temple Church, heard and received with much regret the resignation of our pastor, Elder J. L. I. Conic. For it was only a few months over a year ago, that we cherished with much hope for the future of the church in calling him to fill the vacancy. The Rev. Dr. Chas, S. Morris having resigned. The members of the church were just making preparation for him to move to Norfolk, when the sudden shock came in the form of his resignation. While we deeply deplove so great a change, yet we feel proud to know that in relinquishing our hold upon him, we give to the cause of education so great a factor in the person of our pastor. The Holiness People having taken our Boydton Institute to the education of our children and also preparation of its ministers in search of a Dean to stand at the helm of this great work, which means so much to the community at large. The Rev. Dr. H. L. Carver, of St. Louis, Mo., was selected for the past. Dr. Carver at the time was pastor of Christ Temple in St. Louis, Mo., work had to be done in haste as time for school year had begun. At the National Convocation for Holiness Churches our pastor, Elder Conic, was made Jr. overseer of all the work which literally meant his moving as near as possible to the center of the work. Christ Temple, at St. Louis made vacant by the selecting of Dr. Carver to Boydton Institute was chosen for his post. While we deeply regret his departure, yet we bid him God speed in his work for the education of our children only hope and pray that his labors may be of much service for the Master. We shall evercherish his memory and pray that at all times in the future as was in the past while with us that he may ever lift the banner of Christ up higher and higher until victory has been achieved.

FRIDAY NIGHT MINISTERS
CLASS HOLDS MEETING
The Friday Night Ministers Class, which meets at the First Baptist Church each Friday night from 7:30 to 9 o'clock during the school months, started out on its fourth year last Friday. Rev. F. W. Jacobs, associate pastor of the church and a teacher of one of the divisions of the class, says that the work of the class will be varied this year. Instead of using one text-book during the whole nine months, a series of intensive short courses will be offered. The first six weeks will be devoted to a study of the Bible by books, the making of a sermon, and to Biblical interpretation. The next six weeks will be devoted to the work of the pastor, church organization and management, and to church and Sunday school publicity, etc. This new plan of work will make it easier for men in the pastorate to take advantage of the opportunity of attending this class. There is no fee charged. Men in all denominations are made welcome. At present the class has an enrollment of thirty-four.

TWO MISSIONARY SERVICES AT FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
Dr. James E. East Preaches At Morning Service. Miss Williamson's Farewell In Evening.
Two great services will be held at the First Baptist Church this Sunday. Dr. James E. East, Secretary of the National Baptist Foreign Mission Board, will preach at the morning service. His messages are always gripping, he having spent eleven years in South Africa before accepting his present position. While there his work attracted such notice, that he was engaged by the British Government to assist in the extension work of the government's agricultural college. During the three years of his present work the contributions to National Baptist missions have trebled. He was able to report more than $85,000 at the recent sessions of the National Convention in Nashville.
Miss Sarah G. Williamson, a Norfolk born girl, and graduate of Hampton Institute and Rochester Theological Seminary, will deliver a farewell address at the evening service, which begins at 7:30. Miss Williamson is a young woman of unusual gifts and a striking personality. Her power for leadership and her ability as a speaker were so evident in her work as Executive Secretary of the Y. W. C. A. in Dayton, Ohio, that she was called in to quell a disturbance between the races in one of the public schools last winter. This will be her last appearance in America for some years, as she sails for Liberia the following Friday.
The pastor, Rev. Richard H. Bowling, says that there will be on exhibit all day at the church pictures and letters and maps setting forth the work of our people in Liberia. Among the pictures will be some recently received from Miss Viola Carter, another Norfolk girl, who is rounding out nine months of service in Monrovia, West Coast Africa.
METROPOLITAN A. M. E. ZION
CHURCH
Last Sunday the Sunday school was out in large numbers. This being Girls' Week, the girls held the foremost part in the school. At 11:30 a. m., the pastor preached a wonderful sermon to the girls. At 7:30 p. m., the pastor again filled the pulpit. This being Communion Day his discourse was short. We were glad to welcome a number of visitors. Among those present was Mrs. Harrison, of Petersburg, Va.

PERILS OF THE CITY" SUBJECT AT GRACE P.E. CHURCH
Choir's Rendition of Gounod's "Sanctus," Added Feature Of Sunday Morning Service.
Last Sunday was a great day at Grace Church. A large congregation filled the church at the celebration of the Holy Communion in the morning. The subject of the sermon by Rev. Harris was "Perils in the City," taking his text from II Cor. 11:26. After mentioning some of the perils in the city, the rector continued by saying "they lead to a neglect of God and His church." "In spite of the many hindrances there have been many who have overcome and we, too, can overcome by giving ourselves, body, soul and spirit to God." The choir added to the service by rendering Gounod's "Sanctus."
The evening service was well attended and the rector spoke from I Cor. 1:12, "Called to be Saints."
LAUDS NORFOLK IN RADIO SPEECH
LAUDS NORFOLK IN RADIO SPEECH
City Has Unsurpassed Natural Advantages, and Is Good Place To Live, Declared Rev. Bowling.
Rev. Richard H. Bowling, pastor of the Fist Baptist Church broadcasted an address over the Reliance Radio Station Tuesday night on Norfolk's advantages. He spoke under auspices of the Chamber of Commerce radio program committee, and was accompanied by his choir which rendered a number of selections, several by special request.
Rev. Bowling said in part: "Surely God is good to Israel." Similar words might well be spoken with regard to Norfolk, the port city of Virginia and one of the leading cities of the entire New South. With her twin sister, the city of Portsmouth, she has a combined population of over 215,000. Like New York at the North, Chicago in the Middle West, Los Angeles on the West Coast, or New Orleans on the Gulf, Norfolk is the center of diversified means of maintenance and growth. She has many attractions for tourists. Her climate is mild but exhilarating the year round. Her white sand bath beaches are not only a delight but absolutely safe. Many buildings and spots in her midst are famous for their historical associations, while she is literally surrounded with a network of concrete boulevards leading to nearby points of historic interest.
Her accessibility by inland waterways, by railroads, and by sea, make her as by Divine right a coal port, produce port, cotton port, tobacco port, peanut port, and the shipping center for the well-known Smithfield ham and Lynnhaven oyster. She is also distinguished for her truck farming, her manufactures, her sea foods, and for coastwise and trans-Atlantic shipping. Norfolk appears destined, as though by the plan of God, to become one of the largest and wealthiest cities of the nation. It is but recently, however, that the eyes of the outside investor have been turned this way. But touched by the magic wand of capital and urged on by a developing sense of civic pride, Norfolk has within ten years not only trebled her population but attracted nationwide attention.
Dependable Labor Supply
One of the chief reasons for this city's growth and the success of the many enterprises in her midst is her contented and dependable labor supply. Like other Southern cities, Norfolk's laboring class is largely colored. Colored women serve as nurses, domestic, elevator girls, field-hands, factory workers, and char-women. Colored men serve as delivery porters janitors, hotel employees, longshoremen, seafarers, coal-handlers, and farm hands.
The individual capitalist or the corporation locating here is assured of a satisfied and dependable supply of unskilled labor. But the demand for skilled labor can likewise be met. There is the great middle class of whites and a growing number of Negroes who are
Ingersoll
Reliable Watches
at Low Prices
THE mechanism in Ingersoll watches is simple and strong. That's why they stand hard knocks better than expensive, delicate watches, and why they are ideal watches for all-around use.
The name Ingersoll is known everywhere to mean reliable watches at low prices.
Models $1.75 to $11
rate have dropped steadily form month to month.
Also, the Norfolk Negro is provided with equal accommodation in all public institutions and on public carriers where State laws make racial segregation obligatory. Colored visitors from points North frequently remark that there is but little difference between the treatment they get here and that accorded them on the other side of the Mason and Dixon's line. Officials and employees of stores, offices and public service corporations are almost uniformly courteous and kindly disposed to Negro patrons. The city officials and the leading citizens generally, repeatedly show their willingness to help and their interest in the colored section of the community. Not the least of the causes of the Norfolk Negro's contentment to "live and die in Dixie" is that he knows by experience, there is the friendliness of feeling towards him on the part of his white neighbor.
All Working Together As to the colored people themselves, they too have caught the spirit of making Norfolk a bigger, better, happier city.Their bank, the Metropolitan Bank and Trust Co., has resources of nearly a million, and is a model institution for clinical efficiency and conservative financiering. Their newspaper, the Journal and Guide is a well-edited, clean and newsy weekly of twelve pages, and has a circulation

fitted both by training and by apprenticeship for the many processes of industry calling for skill and specialized knowledge.
No Strikes
The unionized, strikes attended with violence are practically unknown among Norfolk's laborers. This city's labor supply both white and colored is a dependable factor by reason of the wisdom and foresight of its leaders in press and pulpit, in civic organizations, in government and in private business. Ample provision has been made for school facilities, for parks and playgrounds, and for arbitration of industrial and interracial disputes. Conditions that might bring mob violence and ill-feeling have always been taken in hand and adjusted before any actual outbreak has occurred.
Justice To Labor
As to her colored population, Norfolk boasts of having provided her colored citizens the largest, best equipped and most costly accredited Vocational High School for Negroes in the entire South. Her city government provides them with a Community Health Center, a number of special clinics, the services of professional visiting nurses, adequate sewerage, improved streets, regular garbage disposal, and other agencies and means looking to better health and more wholesome physical environment. As a very noticeable result the Negro laborer's sick and death

The early morning prayer meeting was good and one soul was converted. The Sunday school is making rapid strides both in attendance and finance. At 11:30 a.m., the pastor gave us a rich message from Ps. 40:1. After the serenist, Prof. Reynolds, of the Booker T. Washington High School was introduced and gave some very timely and helpful remarks. At 3:00 p. m., the Couvent meeting was fine. The B. Y. P. U. read-red an excellent program.

In the Republican platform is a pledge to favor a Federal anti-lynching law. To such legislation I am opposed, though not more strongly than to lynching itself. This tragic subject was brought intimately into my youth. I have felt all that can be said in defence of lynching, yet I know that it is an evil thing. Slowly it is being cured in the South. The rate of progress is at times checked by savage outbreaks, depressing to those of us who utterly condemn the practice. Yet, as the lesser of two evils, I prefer to abide the delay incident to reliance upon action by our various States rather than add momentum to the centralizing movement which in a political body as large as ours will produce ere long either, established tyranny, or misrule, or revolution. No direct reference to the Negro is found in the Democratic platform, nor in the candidate's speeches. But in general terms Mr. Davis has condemned the whole attitude of the South concerning this grave issue. He declares that neither racial nor religious differences should result in any political disqualification whatever. He squarely stands on Republican ground.
Southern objection to office holding by Negroes must utterly give way if the words uttered by Mr. Davis are made words of power. Does his known character give us assurance that, if elected, he will "make good" on all his campaign declarations as far as in him lies? His blast directed against the K. K. K., taken as it is written, will sweep over the South, burning like chaff their political hedges, releasing the Negro from every political effect of rneal bias, revivifying the Fifteenth Amendment, the Civil Rights Bill, and calling up from its grave (if necessary) the Force Bill. Such would be the logical results of the Democratic candidate's speech.
milestone of progress in the history of race relations—the first cruise with equal treatment for all citizens of good repute. You will be proud as long as you live to have had a part in this great event which opens another door of equal rights.

Without obligating myself in any way I would like full information about the Aladdin Cruise to the West Indies.
ULTIMATUM OR BLUFF
Answering the infuriated cries of his Southern supporters, Mr. Davis could remind them of his words of warning. He could just declare that he was not responsible for their naive belief that he referred only to Jews and Catholics in his denunciation of racial and religious bias. He could truthfully point out that the most fragrant case in our country of political ostracism based on racial distinction, is that upon which the whole Southern structure is built.
Unmasked, in broad daylight, the Democratic party of the South applies to the Negro those political restrictions which the Klan, in its secret activities, is alleged to apply to Negro, Jew and Catholic. They are not to be admitted to the council of rulers. From the very notoriety of these conditions, Mr. Davis could argue th't the Southern people, in giving him their electoral votes, must have known that they were declaring for a social and political revolution—or else they were morons, unfit to govern themselves, and a fortiori, unfit to govern the Negro.
It is true there is one other interpretation possible—namely, than Mr. Davis did not mean what he said. Yet the admirable lucidity of which Mr. Davis is capable, the solemnity of the occasion and the prompt adherence to his cause of important Negro groups in the North—all these considerations lead one to suppose that the traditional policy of the Republican party in support of the Negro's political claims, has now been adopted by the Democratic candidate. His election, therefore, bodies trouble. That trouble may lead to better things—better as judged by some of us, worse as judged by others. But those same things, better or worse, those new conditions for the Negro are obtainable, if desired by the South, through a mere departure from its present stiffing one-party allegiance.
REPUBLICAN COURSE SAFER
A recent Republican candidate for governor in Virginia, Colonel Henry Anderson, advocated a part of the program inferred from Mr. Davis' pronouncement, viz., a repeal of restrictive laws affecting the Negro's right of suffrage. He was more coy than Mr. Davis' formula would suggest in the matter of office-holding by Negroes. Substantially, this recent Republican State program would carry us
Norfolk Journal and Guide
by easy stages to the status reached catastrophically by the application of Mr. Davis' words. Now, if we are to tread the path therein indicated, most of us, in advancing the political rights of Negroes, would prefer the platform of the 1922 Republican State convention in Virginia to the more radically tempestuous program of the Democratic presidential candidate in 1924. In any case, whatever one's opinions on the Negro question, it may be said in view of Republican practice on the one hand and recent Democratic theory on the other, that the "honors are easy". And, in so far as one years to re-establish normal two or three) party life in the South, one seems now quite free, so far as the Negro question is concerned, to vote the Republican ticket.
Mr. Davis' fateful utterance may easily result in a complete divorce between State and National party alignments in the South, with a tightening of the States' Rights doctrine as a defence against Federal action by either party.
NAMING THE KLAN
I do not account it cowardice on the part of either national convention to have omitted reference to the Klan. If this organization is breaking law by overt acts in any State, let us be patient a little. A rush to Washington for every rumpus—well, though I know many people want it, I do not. I prefer the rumpus and some broken heads before. we resort to the Great Father in the White House. Much is being made of the mention of the Klan by name. What courage! Mr. Davis has done this with consummate cleverness. He does not charge the Klan with misbehavior. He says: "If any organization, etc., by whatever name it may be called—K. K. K. or otherwise—should do naughty things, then etc., etc.,..." The "if" saves the case. Does the Klan do or say these naughty things? And if it does are we facing a conspiracy punishable by law? Or, is it only a political movement lying within the region of wisdom or fully permitted to all of us as long as we retain any freedom?
WHAT CONCRETE LAW IS DESIRED
Let us see. First, as to legislation: Shall Council declare that no masked man may appear in public? (We pass over the question of constitutionality—so unpopular now). The first important use of masks in our political history was made by the "Mohawks," as those were called who, disguised in Indian dress, constituted the Boston Tea Party, now sacred in our annals.
They were engaged in serious business. So were the masked men in Mississippi in the early seventies, whose ghostly forms flit through my earliest recollection (Continued on Page Eleven)

National Baptist Plant Not Privately Owned Says Henry A. Boyd
Issues Statement In Reply to What He Declares Is Misleading Report. Cites Decree of Tennessee Supreme Court
Sold By Thousands of Madam C.J.Walker Agents,Good Drug Stores Direct By Mail
(Special to the Journal and Guide)
Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 10.—Citing the decision of the Supreme Court of Tennessee in the celebrated litigation several years ago between the late Rev. Henry Allen Boyd and certain members of the National Baptist Publishing Board, who later withdrew from the original body and formed an incorporated board, Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, present secretary of the organization and son of the late R. H. Boyd, today issued a statement in which he branded as false and misleading, reports regarding the present status and ownership of the board's plant in Nashville, which were published in a local daily newspaper.
REPORTS UNTRUE
There appeared in The Nashville Tennessee of September 10th a article under the caption of "Negro Convention Recalls Schism". There were several erroneous statements calculated to damage one of Nashville's leading institutions, in that they left the impression that the Plant is privately owned. This paragraph appeared, which is erroneous and misleading, and not according to the Supreme Court's Decision, of Tennessee. The paragraph read: "Boyd Claimed Ownership to the Publishing House and the Court Sustained his Claim". This is absolutely untrue. The person who wrote the article was either ignorant of the facts, or was trying to deceive three million five hundred thousand Negro Baptists or fifteen million Negroes in the United States.
DR. BOYD NEVER CLAIMED PLANT
The late R. H. Boyd never claimed the National Baptist Publishing Board's Plant as his private property. It is true that the built it; he started it with nothing; he was never given one dime out of the treasury of the National Baptist Convention; he never received a single dollar in donations from any philanthropist to be spent in the purchase of buildings and machinery. He came out of slavery as
Features - Virginia and North Carolina News - Editorials
a true and tried servant of his masters—he never left them; ever after he was emancipated he remained with his people who owned him and became their trusted employee. He boasted of the fact that he was a confederate and a follower of the confederate cause. He lived, moved and had his being in the South. The white people of this city admired and respected him. They had confidence in him because he was true not only to his race, but to them. He died at a ripe old age.
FACTS OF THE SPLIT
The Negro Baptist Convention did not split over the question of ownership of the National Baptist Publishing Board's Plant. They split in Chicago in 1915 over the question of whether Negro Baptists should remain a Volunteer Association, carrying out the idea of the New Testament Church, and remaining not as a church, but as churches banded together in Associational capacity and doing denominational work. The Negro Baptists did not want a chartered Convention, so those who believed and wanted a charter, split off and organized another Convention under a charter, which was obtained in Washington, D. C., and which makes the Convention a Body Politic with seven Directors. Negro Baptists, most of them having worked with Southern white Baptists, resented this; they would not have it.
THE COURT'S DECISION
I would like to quote the decision of the Court of Appeals, that was sustained by the Supreme Court of Appeals, that was sustained by the Supreme Court of Tennessee: "This cause came on to be heard before the Court on this and on former days of the Court upon the transcript of the record, from Part II of the Chancery Court of Davidson County, Tennessee, assignments of error and argument of counsel. After consideration of the same, the Court is of the opinion and so holds, that with respect to relators there is no reversible error in the decree of the
Chancellor, and as to them, his degree is affirmed. The court declines to pass upon the question as to which faction of the National Baptist Convention that split at Chicago in 1915 is the regular or legal National Baptist Convention of the United States. "The Court holds, and is of the opinion that the National Baptist Convention of the U. S. A. is not a Church, and that said relators have no right to question the validity of the charter of incorporation granted under the general incorporation Act of 1875.
"The Court is further of the opinion that the National Baptist Convention of the U. S. of America as it is called in the record, have acquiesced in the incorporators of the National Baptist Publishing Board electing members of said Board since its incorporation until 1915, and that relators have no right to disturb or set aside usage and custom under the facts appearing in the record.
"The relators and their sureties will pay the cost, the bill being dismissed."
Boy Injured By Falling File
Newark, N. J., Oct. 8—(P. N. S.)—A steel file, sharpened and pointed like a knife, struck the head of nine-year-old Alexander Walker, Thursday as he was playing along the old Morris Canal at Plane street, beneath the walls of the Devevoise factory. The steel stuck in the child's skull and was pulled out by Rector Punchard, of 49 Peck avenue, a passing automobilist. He took the boy to the City Hospital where three stitches were taken in the wound. The injury was declared not serious. Detective Beradi, who investigated, said that at the factory he found that files made into knives were used for cutting purposes, but that it was declared all windows were closed and no explanation could be made of how the knife happened to strike the boy.

On September 2, Brooks is alleged to have heaten his wife beyond Rock Quarry and to have left the city. His wife observed a queer substance in the flour barrel and brought a sample of the flour to Mr. Owens; for analysis.
The magistrate turned the sample over to the State Department of Chemistry for analysis and received a report from Leland B. Rhodes, assistant State Chemist which stated that the chemical analysis of the flour had revealed arsenic in large quantities.
Brooks when arrested stoutly maintained his innocence of either beating his wife or poisoning the family larder.

The Miller Day Nursery Doing Splendid Work
The Miller Day Nursery Doing Splendid Work
The Miller Day Nursery and Home is making a strenuous effort to collect the pledges made for its support through the Community Chest last January. About one half of the amount has been collected. During the summer vacation period the collections tell far behind and it is now necessary that immediate payments be made. The Nursery is caring for from 17 to 22 children each day. Its monthly budget is one hundred forty dollars. The Nursery is now well equipped for the care of children and is also rendering aid in connection with undernourished children. It has been found in several cases that a mother can not give up her employment although her baby needs her attention throughout the day. In these cases the Nursery has come to the mother's aid.
It is hoped that every one owing a pledge to the Nursery will make it convenient to make a payment this week. If the collector does not call give the payment to the one through whom you made the pledge.
The Nursery management is quite sure that racial and local pride and the sense of personal reliability will urge all pledge persons to not fail in making good in its promise to the needy mothers of the city. The friends of the Nursery are urged to keep closely in touch with opportunities to help the Nursery in this matter.

is any executive action we may desire to have pledged to us by the candidates? About all that the president could do in the matter would be by refusing appointive office to all known klansmen. Then shall we (opponents of the Klan) ask each of the three this question, cruelly? "Will you, Coolidge, Davis, LaFollette, promise me, voter that if elected President of the United States you will refuse to appoint to any Federal office any man known to espouse the political doctrine that neither Jew, Catholic nor Negro should be elected to public office in the United States?"

Until some such third degree quiz is made and answered (I do not care enough about the matter to make it) I shall not further myself about the preeminent candidates on the K, K, K.
The whole performance in our day seems childish, unless these masks are used to cover violent and illegal acts. That, at least, masks them serious—Like the obstruction of the tea in Boston Harbor, or the man-hounding the sad days of Recon-
SOUTH NORWALK
However that may be, the violations attributed to them have not so disturbed the public peace that Governors call for Federal military aid. If it comes to that point—very well, there is familiar mechanism to meet the situation. No one doubts that Coollidge, Davis or LaFollette would in such emergency, net as the majority of peace-loving citizens would have them set. No issue is there.
South Norwalk, Conn.—Mr. Geo. Whitchurst, of Norfolk, Va., arrived in town Wednesday, October 1. *Mrs. Martha Elliott, of Marshall street, is sick.* *A few of Norwalk's colored fans journeyed to Washington to witness the series, and a large crowd witnessed the games played in New York.* *Mr. Zion Baptist Church had fine services Sunday. Holy Communion was administered at 3 o'clock. Knight Church had a regular services Sunday and at 3 o'clock. Mrs. L. Mason lead a program for the children. The Lord's Supper was administered at 7:30 p.m. Victory Rally is on and will close Sunday, November 2.* *Grace Baptist Church held five services Sunday. Dr. Thomas, pastor delivered an excellent sermon. The Lord's Supper was administered at 7:30 p.m.* *Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Armstead of Hampton, Va., are visiting Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Armstead, of Quincy street.*
HOW SHOULD THE EXECUTIVE PROCCED?
Now, as to the political opinions of these people, I understand that they believe it better for the country that Jews, Catholics and Negroes should in general, be excluded from office—the exclusion to be effected, I suppose, by consolidating the votes of non-Jews, non-Catholics and white people. However much we may differ on this issue with the Imperial Wizard and his hooded Klims, we cannot legislate against these views, or against the organization of politics to establish them by the ballot-box. No issue on that score.

CLAIM THAT SCHOOL PROPERTY WOULD DEPRECIATE
Chicago, Ill., Oct. 9.—(A. N. P.)—At a meeting of the leading business men of the Loyala-Sheridan road district, action was taken to prevent the establishment of a school for colored girls in the neighborhood. The charge was made that the school, and a church contemplated for Sundays, would depreciate property values in the district. This is in spite of the fact that the building intended to be occupied has just been closed under an injunction from the United States Court, charging violation of the prohibition law. It formerly housed the Northern Lights Cabaret, a notorious "lily white" joint which has been the scene of many a murder. The cabaret owner is willing to keep its lease in favor of colored schools, and exclusive white residents would prefer to have a "murder school" and bear gardens.

Nothing responds to loving, careful building up of beauty so quickly as a woman's face and hair, when treated the right way and with correct, scientific materials that feed the tissues and create a healthful, peachy skin glow and give new life and elegance to a beautiful woman's hair.
Eva Summers proves this by the lovliness that distinguishes her from a roomful of fine appearing women.
"Any woman can have supreme beauty of face, and hair that will give her the proudest delight," she says, "for the simple investment of a very small sum of money in Exelento Skin Beautifier, Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Soap, and a small amount of time each day applying these wonderful preparations as directed on the package."
"These are all I have used and all any woman needs; these and the determination to put her beauty first and to let nothing interfere with her daily applications of Exelento Skin Beautifier, Exelento Skin Soap and Exelento Quinine Pomade."

The Thomas boy was standing in the pit in the basement when the other boy lowered an elevator car, which struck the Thomas boy on the head.

Time was and not a thousand years ago when if you told an Afro-American he should divide his vote he would feel like smashing you in the jaw. Now the thing has become so common that he only shakes his head and mumbles some observation which you cannot translate into intelligibility. Why? Times change and people change with them. Let us hope we are going on to higher and better things in politics.

Col. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., the Republican candidate for Governor of New York, comes out strongly as a Volstead dry and some more, largely because his Democratic opponent is a moderate wet. Liquor enforcement in New York City, at least, up to date, is a howling failure. It is neither controlled nor regulated nor suppressed, and lawless traffic is the result. The Government is obligated to suppress the liquor traffic; failure to do that requires the Government to control and regulate it. The public interests demand that it do so. Partisan expediency is a dangerous make-shift.

A man named Gantt lives at Crystal Springs, Miss. He makes the training and rental of bloodhounds a business. He must be of the bloodhound sort himself. Like dog like master. Between September 20 and 23 he had hounds chasing Negro fugitives near Natchez, Miss., and Shreveport, La., followed by deputy sheriffs and posses heavily armed, ready if the fugitives escaped the hounds on four feet to do them up by the hounds on two feet. Bloodhounds, posse, mob, patrol riders, and their sort, are survivals of the days of slavery and should be done away with. The South will never be the place to live in that it should until they are done away with. That's the truth.
A Political "Boner"
By bringing the suit in Louisiana to upset the validity of the fourteenth amendment the Democrats have given the Republicans a choice bit of campaign argument with which to stop the flow of Northern Afro-American votes from the Republican to the Democratic party. If the Republicans themselves had designed and timed this action it could not have been more effective for that party as a piece of political strategy.
The Democrats have a most excellent chance this year to poll a heavy vote from the ranks of Northern and Western Afro-Americans but with Senator Caraway and others from the South carrying the race question into the border states, and this Louisiana suit designed to deprive every Afro-American in the United States of all political rights, the chances are in favor of an abrupt return of these voters to Republican ranks.
The Democratic party in Louisiana is obviously out of harmony with the national interests of the party in this move, as indicated by overtures made to the Afro-American vote. It is also a coincidence that Mr. Davis, the Democratic standard bearer, made the argument before the United States Supreme Court a few years ago which resulted in the overthrow of the famous "grandfather" clause, which automatically disfranchised colored persons in numerous Southern states.
The Louisiana action will not be viewed with alarm. It is hardly to be expected that a United States Court will at this late day decree that the twelve million persons of African descent in this country are "inherently incapable of being citizens."
Japan Still Fighting For Racial Equality
The European races, especially the North and Northeastern branches, and the English speaking races of them in North America and the West Indies and Africa, styling themselves as Nordics, have the idea that they are better than other races, with a higher sense of honor, with a stronger grasp upon the principle of initiative and development. They take in the Teutonic races but exclude the Frankish, Latin and Slavic races, in their racial groupings, although these latter are accepted at their face value, while the African and Asiatic
races and the races of the Pacific Ocean are regarded as within Nordic right to initiate and develop and dominate. Strictly speaking, the Nordic classification includes primarily only English speaking peoples fought along this racial line of classification, although in minor instances the line was so indistinct as to be negligible. The tighter the Nordics draw the line of race classification the tighter the other groups draw the line. When the lines are drawn sufficiently tight as they are being drawn every day in the movement for world control by the Nordics, there will be another conflict, more devastating than the World War.
Japan threw down the challenge of racial equality to the Allies at Versailles after the World War and was defeated, and the immigration policy of excluding Asiatics from English speaking countries, on the ground that they are backward and unassimilable people, has followed as a consequence, with Japan protesting, backed by the other Asiatics and the Slavic races of Southwestern Europe, with the sympathy of the Latin races, which are also affected by the immigration policy of the Nordic. When the line up has been completed, the Nordics will have the time of their lives breaking it. The policy of grabbing all of the land of the earth and keeping others out, on subjecting and exploiting them in their own lands, could not do other than provoke a life and death struggle.
Last week the Japanese delegates in the League of Nations, at Geneva, tied the hands of the League and threatened the peace of the world by demanding an amendment to the proposed Protocals on the question of what constitutes domestic policy and sufficient provocation for war, and Japan won, the other Nations conceding the point with very bad grace. It is generally understood that Japan was fighting for racial equality and against the exclusion policy of the United States and Great Britian, and the responsible newspapers of the two countries got much excited over the matter, the end of which is not yet.
We are convinced that the American people and Government do not understand the character of the Japanese people and make a big mistake in underrating and provoking them to wrath. The Japanese are fighting for "racial equality" in the councils of the Nations and they are resourceful and tenacious fighters.
Reading Mr. Church Out and Reading Him in the Party
The political pot has begun to boil in earnest and the gaiety of everybody is enhanced on that account an hundred fold. Indeed, the journalists of the country and of the race get as much fun out of the uproar as the politicians, both of whom depend upon the rank and file for their bread and the butter that should go on one side of it at least. And the rank and file expect always to get as much out of politics as it puts in it, in the way of good government and lessening of the burden of taxation; upon the necessaries of life, and it seldom gets even a little bit of what it hopes and votes for. The journalists lose their enthusiasm after the elections, when there is no news to feed to their readers and the politicians forget their promises, leaving the rank and file to grin and pay for it all.
We have been interested in the fate of the Ku Klux Klan and the Lilywhites in the pending campaign, because they touch the race at many points and because they are both in politics and expect to benefit whichever party wins, being represented largely in both the major parties. It appears that the Republican party has in its body corporate more of both sorts than is good for it, but the leaders of the party are not agreed as to this fact and are hedging and squatting behind silence as the safer way to win.
The Lilywhites of the South have had two setbacks in Tennessee which are noteworthy. First, Mr. Robert R. Church, an advisory member of the Republican National Committee, was read out of the party by the Lilywhites of Tennessee and then read back in the party by the same Lilywhites upon request of Mr. William H. Butler, Chairman of the Republican National Committee. The whole proceedings were comical, to say the least, but it does look as if Mr. Church were a bigger man in the party than the combined bunch of Lilywhites in Tennessee. Then, as to give color to this viewpoint, a big meeting was called for Memphis, where Mr. Church lives and owns something like a million dollars worth of taxable values, and all the Lilywhite Republicans of Tennessee and the adjoining states were bidden to it to hear General Charles G. Dawes speak on the issues. Something happened in providing for the seating of Afro-Americans in the big auditorium and it was announced that General Dawes would not address the Allied Lilywhites of Tennessee and the Mud Bottoms of the Yazoo Delta and their affluents.
As a matter of fact the Ku Klux Klan and the precious Lilywhites are on the run and fighting for their lives, and, without butting in, the JOURNAL AND GUIDE is free to say, that is their business.

Criticizing The Newspapers
Christine Science Monitor
Two incidents, occurring in widely separated sessions of the United States, and reported in yesterday's Monitor, serve to call attention anew to the public dissatisfaction with what is a too common type of journalism today. In Los Angeles the Municipal League in the current issue of its Bulletin, indicts leading newspapers of that city for an editorial policy which exalts crime as the most important news of the day.
These papers, according to the figures of the Municipal League, devote from 6.2 to 31.6 per cent of their news space to crime. This policy, the critics say, not only results in the crowding out of important world news, but acts as a positive encouragement to criminals. Crime and disease are mental phenomena closely allied. To keep the mind constantly brooding on thoughts of ill-health invariably produces a diseased condition of the body.
In the same way the constant impression upon the public consciousness of thoughts of crime is certain to develop criminals. The evil power universally recognized among scientific men, although the study of the phenomena is still in its infancy. Enough data, however, have been gathered and collected to justify the conclusion that crime, no less than disease, may be, and is, encouraged and extended by the power of mental suggestion.
A dozen years ago advertisers reached the conclusion that pages filled with disgusting, offensive or deceptive advertisements were not suitable places to display honest commercial announcements. As a result the advertising pages of the press have been notably cleaned up. Perhaps the time is in sight when those who purvey goods for the household will hesitate about offering them through the columns of newspapers which careful people exclude from the household circle.

1. Tuskegee and Hampton Beneficiaries.
2. Congressional Experiments.
3. South African Whites Fear Decrease.
4. "Home-Made" Homes.
What is said to be the largest gift ever made to Negro education is that just announced by the Rockefeller Foundation, which has pledged half a million dollars each to Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes, provided the schools raise like amounts within the next three years. This provisional donation, coming along after the Jeannes-Slater and Phelps-Stokes funds, in behalf of the education of Negroes, is an encouraging sign of the greater awakening of sincere Americans to the fact that into the melting pot of America's educational advancement there permanently reposes the future of America's black masses.
The effects of this donation will be far-reaching: First, it will undoubtedly stimulate the respect which the North has always had for the Negro products of Southern educational institutions; and, second, the lethargy which has prevailed in Southern states towards the educational advancement of their Negro boys and girls, will give away in some degree at least to a broader spirit of fairness in the granting of appropriations. Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, has already called our attention to the fact that during the last ten years North Carolina has increased its appropriations for Negro education by $750,000. But in his own state, Alabama, as well as in Louisiana, Florida, Mississippi, and, in fact, in the majority of the Southern states, appropriations have been steady, and the education of Negro children has been looked upon by the whites as something which should be laid upon the table.
The Rockefeller donation, however, should be an eye-opener to such organizations as the Southern Commission on Race Relations, and various church educational boards, and the committees on education in the State Legislatures. Too, it should be sued as a lever by the colored people of the South in calling attention, in a vigorous way, to the needs of their sons and daughters. Then will Negro migration decline, and the races disgorge from their system much of the misunderstanding and prejudice so prevalent in the Southland. "A nation half slave and half free cannot endure." And this truth applies equally well to education as it does to civic freedom; for the child of today is the man or woman of tomorrow.
Two congressional experiments are in the bud in New York and in Chicago, in candidacy of Dr. Charles Roberts, the genial Harlem dentist, who will run for Congress on the Republican ticket against the present democratic incumbent, Royal H. Weller; and in the candidacy of Atty. S. A T. Watkins, who is running on the "Third party" ticket against Martin B. Madden, Republican Congressman from the First District, Chicago, Illinois. In those experiments there will be tested whether or not a Negro can, as yet, be returned to the Halls of Congress.
The two candidates present an entirely difficult complexion. In New York, the Republican machine is squarely behind Dr. Roberts, who, however, faces a man who defeated the well-known Martin C. Ansorge, white, an avowed friend of the Negro. It was Ansorge who named a colored boy to the U. S. Naval Academy at Annapolis, and this act, it is said, cost him many white votes at the 1922 election. Roberts, formerly an alderman in New Yory City, is as fine a type of Republican as can be found. He has always stood with the G. O. P. machine, in sickness and in death; and has been crushed to political earth only to rise again. Nevertheless, Harlem is overflowing with Democrats. Already James McClendon, Assistant District Attorney, John William Smith, who defeated George Harris for aldermanship, and other prominent Negro Democrats of Harlem, in which memories of the late Frank Wheaton, a political favorite of Tammany Hall, are referred, wield tremendous influence through, and are beloved by, the Democratic party. Consequently, Roberts will have the fight of his life in, pulling through.
In Chicago, too, where the Democratic party is gaining weight among the brethren, there is a slight inclination to drift toward that party. Running on the third party ticket, however, Atty. Watkins, who is well remembered because of his many legal victories in behalf of race matters, will have a hard time. Despite the fact that the labor vote, especially among Chicago Negroes, will show a turn toward the third party, Mr. Madden is well entrenched in the hearts of his Negro constituency; and if inroads are made by the third party movement upon the vote of the two older parties, it is thought that the greatest defection will come from the Democratic side. Thus Watkins' chances are not any too favorable.
At any rate, the experiments will bear watching; and if Dr. Roberts can push his way thru upon the Roosevelt wave, it will be a grand victory for him, for the party and for the race.
Secret consternation is reigning around the world on account of the alleged facts revealed by the recent census of South Africa, which shows that native whites are decreasing on the continent. The census statisticians go on to show that the next twenty-five years probably will decide, once and for all, whether the white race is to have any part in the ultimate development of South Africa, or is to be crowded out by the native Negro population. They gloomily say: "If additions from abroad continue to fall in the ranks of the whites, the latter must abandon forever the prospect of maintaining their civilization in South Africa, except as a diminishing minority, and the whites may then be forced to abandon the country entirely." (More Gloom.)
This reminds us of a brief conversation we had some time ago with a African prince who was in tears over his inability to break a 99-year lease which a British Company had upon his father's tunds. Palm oils and mahogany wood, he said, were being taken by the promoting company in a highly profitable way. This was but one of the many instances of the advantage which the civilized whites have taken of the uncivilized blacks in certain ports of South Africa, and something must be wrong in Denmark if the former are now beginning to worry over their decreasing numbers. Either the palm oils and mahogany wood have become exhausted or they are so plentiful that they cannot be marketed in a 99-year period.

(PRESTON NEWS SERVICE)
Harris S. Blackstone, who at the age of 23, received the Degree from the University of Pennsylvania, and is reported to be the youngest to receive this degree from any institution of the same rank. In 1920 there were 2,033,101 Negroes in the United States between the ages of 5 and 20 in school, of which 1,026,101 were males. George M. Johnson, of Jeanneette, Pa., has been granted 17 patents on inventions of mine safety devices; Mr. Johnson is the
Last but not least, it may be that the Johnnesburg census statisticians have heard of the Marcus Garvey plan to carry four million American blacks to swell the dark-complexioned population of South Africa. These forces would indeed make an "addition from abroad" and would, perhaps, bring about the condition concerning which the census-takers are singing the "blues." This, though, is an unbelievable possibility, and we would sincerely suggest that the statisticians be not unduly alarmed. Economic wealth is a diamond in the eyes of white promoters, and so long as there is a "pound of flesh" in South Africa which will stand the test of legal inquiry, it is to be doubted that any permanent decrease in the white population of that fertile country will be noted.
Believe it or not, there are 101 Negro county farm and home demonstration agents in the United States. Under the auspices of the U. S. Department of Agriculture and the various state agricultural colleges of the Southern states, they sally forth into the highlands and the lowlands and give practical demonstrations in food preparation, sanitation, farmstead improvement, home industries, and community development, in an effort to lift the farm home up to a high plane of efficiency and comfort. The male agents can show you how to till your sacred soil and increase its productivity. To them, also the rearing of cows, pigs and chickens is a science. And the gentle female agents take keen delight in developing home tastes. As adjunct arts, they're not too stiff to give out friendly hints in needlecraft, or to show you what might cure the baby's colic.
Special attention has just been called to Mrs. Annie P. Hunter, of Okfuskee, County Oklahoma, the first Negro woman a agent employed in cooperative extension service to spread the practice of better methods of home making a mong N e pro farm women. Mrs. Hunter, who began her official tasks in 1912, is still functioning, and mighty is she in the affections of the Negro farm women of her district. Of equal celebrity are the agents in other southern farm states, and so high has been their efficiency that last full a delegation of agents was summoned to Washington by Secretary of Agriculture Wallace, who gave them personal commendation for their excellent work.
The way of the Negro farmer and his energetic housewife is far more from being a roseate path of agricultural glory. The cry of poverty is still in their vocabulary. Some alleviation was forecast when the Federal Farm Loan Board was established by Congress for the granting of credits to thrifty honest farmers. These grants, however, have been slow to reach the Negro farmer, who faces even a greater need than his white-farm brother. It is hoped that in the near future a liberal extension of farms credits will be available to the Negro farmer, and with this Federal assistance, already pledged by Congress, the "home-made" home will become even more a reality than it is now.
In the meantime, Mrs. Hunter, and her one hundred contemporaries are bringing what succor they can to the Negro farmer, who, like every other Negro producer, is an optimist and is cheerily awaiting the dawn of a brighter tomorrow for himself and for the things he is zealously endowing to accomplish.

Dr. Gilbert Haven Jones, recently elected president of Wilberforce University, Wilberforce, Ohio, is the author of several text books on "Psychology" and "School Management." His books on psychological subjects are used in courses at Harvard, Boston and Wilberforce Universities.
Kurt F. Phillips, a native of New-York, has been appointed Commissioner of Conciliation in the U. S. Department of Labor at a salary of $5,000 per year. He succeeds the late Phil. H. Brown of Hopkinsville, Ky. Miss Jennie M. Proctor, President of the Strait-Tex Chemical Co., has been granted a patent on a new style hair straightening brush.
The Home Finder's League, of which Rev. J. C. Austin, pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church, is founder, has just sold eight homes to members of the race in Pittsburgh. This makes more than a hundred homes this organization has enabled Negroes to purchase during the past five years that the organization has been in existence. Countee P. Cullen again won first prize in a poetry, contest in which students from the leading universities of the country competed. This is the second time Mr. Cullen has won first prize.

Editor Journal and Guide,
Sir:—The undersigned officials
of the Men's Nonpartisan Suffrage
Club request the courtesy of your
column to express the regret that
so large a proportion of the Nor-
folk colored men will be unable to
vote in the approaching presi-
dential election.
Many have failed to register, and many who have registered have neglected to conform to the poll tax prerequisite, which is that the tax shall have been paid for the year preceding the election year. Attention has been focused upon this requisite by the recent enactment that applicants for license shall show that their poll tax has been paid, not for the preceding year, but for the year preceding the preceding year.
It requires only a modicum d intelligence to puncture the issue of this subtle subterfuge whereby it is sought to collect the tax and yet deny the right to vote. Parties having no need for licenses should realize that the payment of their poll tax is also obligatory.
Inasmuch as this tax must be paid eventually, it is clear that it costs no more for one to pay up and entitle himself to vote than it does to stay behind and deny himself that privilege.
An additional cause of discountage is the fact that some who have met both the registration and taxation requirements, neglect nevertheless to vote. This is very reprohensible.
All of these conditions the Men's Nonpartisan Strugge Club hopes to correct.
Through its Canvassing Committee it hopes to round up all classes of delinquents.
Through its Educational Committee it hopes to provide information for those needing it not only as to how to qualify for voting, but as to the persons and policies to vote for.
As our name implies, our allegiance will be given not to parties but to principles.
Respectfully,
DAVID H. EDWARDS, President
