Home Demonstration Agents Get Practical Lessons On Preparation Of Food And The Making Of Clothes.
(Special to The Journal and Guide.)
Raleigh, N. C., Nov. 14.—A training school for the Negro Home Demonstration agents waheld at the Home Demonstration offices by Mrs. Jane S. McKimmons, State Agent and several of her assistants.
Two phases of the work were studied in this first school to be held for the Negro State agents, clothing and food. The school opened Tuesday November 4 and continued through Saturday morning.
The five agents of the State, who were in attendance were Emma McDougal, of Wayne; Lucy Wade, of Richmond; Carry Spaulding, of Columbus; Dazelle Foster, of Wake and Sarah Williams, of Beauret.
Wednesday the agents were studying the use of the steam pressure cooker for the preparation of a whole meal, which was cooked in about twelve minutes. Pork chops, Irish potatoes, sweet potatoes and apple sauce, composed the menu, all well done and deliciously flavored. Miss Elizabeth Bridgers Harmeet county agent was in charge of the steam pressure demonstration.
At the first session of the school on Tuesday Miss Maud Wallace, assistant State Home Demonstration agent, began the course in clothing which continued through the week. Patrons and theory of the work and methods were discussed and a one piece dress wrought. Mrs. Cornelia Morris discussed with the agents the method of instructing clubs in food work and Mrs. McKimmons had a conference period with them.
Wednesday morning Miss Wallace continued the study of clothing, stressing color in connection with costume and household furnishings. Mrs. Morris continued the work in foods with a food outline. Thursday Miss Wallace continued the clothing class with a study of line, design and patterns suitable to various types. Miss Brudge and Mrs. Morris continued their instruction with meat canning and meat plaming. On Friday Miss Wallace discussed the subject of millinery, and the one piece dresses cut out out Tuesday were completed. The school closed Saturday at noon with a review of the week's work.

HAMPTON AND S
TO A TIE IN A
HAMPTON AND SHAW BATTLE TO A TIE IN A TERRIFIC GAME
BY P. BERNARD YOUNG, JR.
Hampton, Va., Nov. 8- As the long shadows of encroaching darkness came creeping across Armstrong Field this afternoon the Shaw Bears and the Hampton Seasiders stood face to face at the end of a scoreless battle of football waged through four quarters of some of the most dogged and oftimes brilliant football played on Armstrong Field. The final count was 0-0.
Hampton early in the first quarter had an excellent chance to score a touchdown. Williams of Shaw fumbled and in the pileup came Hampton player recovered the ball on Shaw's nine yard line, then, playing quarter in the place of Jacobs, whose injury in the Lincoln game did not permit him to play, called on Hargrove to rush the pigskin. Hargrove was slightly hurt on the play and came out in favor of Carlie Johnson. Mansfield then gained three yards on a line thrust, and on the next play Johnson was tackled for a small loss. As a fund resort a forward pass was attempted, but Williams of Shaw broke up the pass. The ball went back to Shaw on her nine yard line. She gained a first down on line thrusts, but Chambers punted after Lee had twice stopped rushes through tackle.

Battle Secaws Back and
Earth
Thus the battle rocked back and forth, both teams rushing the ball for a few downs an then punting. Against the tricky wind which swept across the field at a high rate, no accurate judgment of the kicking could possibly be ascertained. In one quarter one team would have the advantage and in the next quarter the other team would profit by the wind. It was a fine game and it furnished many thrills to the cheering student body and the enthusiastic supporters of both teams, who sat out the four quarters in the crisp, almost cold November afternoon.
Many Chances To Score
Several chances came to both
teams, especially to Hampton, to
snatch victory out of the jaws of
a possible defeat. But it is
something to even get an opportunity to
score at all in a game in which
both teams, for the most part, were
consistently remote from the oppo-
nents goal. Numerous opportu-
nities for field goals came, but
none was accurate in the face of
the strong wind and strong oppo-
sition. Except for Hampton's
chance early in the game for a
touchdown, and both teams chances
for goals, the game was a tugging,
plugging contest near the center
of the field.
Stubborn, hammering football it
was, often touched with brilliancy
but gruelling football and always
dodgedy close.
After Hampton's chance under the shadow of Shaw's goal posts, the next chance to tally came to Shaw. Chambers kicked to Hampton's twenty-five yard line, and Baker, who had just run up a punt, a little earlier for twenty-five yards, fumbled the ball and Shaw recovered. On the first play Gunn tackled Williams for two yard loss, and on the second broke up a pass, if that pass had not been knocked down, an open field was there for the Shaw back waiting to run for a touchdown had he received the oval. Dunlap Jones, playing left, downed Mitchell for a five yard loss on the next play, and Shaw kicked. Shaw had another chance in the second quarter. Mitchell tried for a dropkick from the 25-yard line, but it failed. Gunn ran back five yards with the ball. Soon after this half ended.
Gunn tried a drop kick from the fifty-yard line in the third period and missed by a few feet in the strong wind. Again, in the last period after Dean and Mansfield had gained for a first down, Gunn tried a dropkick from an angle, yard line. The impact sent it sail. It was blocked on Shaw's forly ing towards Hampton's goal, and finally it was recovered by Shaw on Hampton's twenty-nine yard line. It seemed as if Shaw might score when Mitchell ripped off fifteen yards, but on the next play Gunn intercepted a forward pass to blast Shaw's hopes again. Soon

FROM THE PRESS BOX
Washington, D. C., Nov. 13—The annual Thanksgiving game between Lincoln University of Pennsylvania, and Howard University of Washington, has come to be known as "The Football Classic of the Year" among colored colleges. The occasion draws alumni and friends of the two institutions from all over the country. Past attendance, together with the present demand for tickets, affords a conservative estimate of twenty-five thousand spectators who will attend the game on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 27th, at the American League Park.
Though Lincoln and Howard are bitter football rivals, the finest kind of spirit prevails between the two institutions and among the visiting throng. Thus the social features in connection with the game are the greatest of the year. The two universities combine in the promotion of a Grand Reunion Reception, the proceeds from which are divided between the two schools as a contribution to their athletic funds. This year, the receptions will be held on the evenings of Wednesday, November 26th, and Thursday, November 27th, in the beautiful new dining hall on the Howard University campus. The

Lincoln, Union and Howard are
the unbeaten in the C. I. A. A.
who's fates hang in the balance
this week-end. Lincoln meets
Shaw, Union meets Petersburg
and Howard meets Hampton.
HOW THEY STACK UP
Lincoln-Wilmington, Del.
The brand of football Shaw has
been playing this year to date is
a fair indication of a good squ
and shd ought to make a strong
stand against the Orange and Blue
machining. Lincoln has the edge,
but sometimes the unexpected happens—it's all in the game.
If Shaw does not lose any of the fight-
ing spirit displayed in the game
with Hampton last week, Lincoln
will find a tough foe.
Hampton-Howard — Washington Since Hampton has been cuffed about so in the past few games, the morale of the team may be lowed and in that case the Bison will have little difficulty in capping over with something like two tallies and a wee bit to spare. On the other hand, the Seasiders may be bolstered up for this fray and put up a different brand of games. Nevertheless, there should not be enough class attached to that check Howard.
Union-Petersburg—Petersburg.
Here, brothers of the wide open
spaces of the gridiron will no
doubt be the banner game of the
day, a game, in which fethers will
fly far and wide. Union is still
in the championship race and is a
strong runner, but the Panthers
show a weakness of being scored
upon frequently and this cannot
be allowed in a game with Petersburg who is still as dangerous as

center of social activity during the Lincoln-Howard game will be the dining hall and campus of the University. Arrangements have been completed for the Homecoming of the General Alumni of Howard University, reduced railroad rates having been granted to members of the Association throughout the United States. The Homecoming program will consist of a "Pep Feast" on Wednesday evening; a business session of the Association on Thursday morning; the award of the "H" to all members of Varsity teams prior to and including 1915, followed by the Lincoln-Howard game; a meeting of the Executive Committee Friday morning; and the final session Friday afternoon.
The University Campus is to be illuminated during the Homecoming sessions with a huge electric sign containing the word "Welcome." Arrangements for the reunion are in charge of a Reception Committee appointed by the General Alumni Association, acting in cooperation with the Howard University Board of Athletic Control and representatives of Lincoln University.

an enraged boy. Whoever slips by in this game will not have anything to spot the opposing eleven.
St. Paul-St. Augustine—Raleigh
Here is where the "Wonder Team"
will have a chance to get some of
its ounces back. St. Augustine is
an easy mark and St. Paul should
not experience any difficulty in
downing the North Carolinians.
Va. Seminary-Livingston—Salisbury.
Much cannot be said about
th eleven of Livingstone College.
The only reports received from a
game in which the squad took part
was the Shaw and the score
resulted in a no score tie. Livingstone has always boasted of a strong aggregation and we shall
go by precedent and say, that she
still has a strong eleven. From
this, the Deacons are in for a hot
time and Livingstone may come
out on the big end of the count.
Booker T. Washington-Huntington—Newport News. The scrapping Booksers should ease by Huntington. The local squad looks, at least one touchdown stronger than the Shiphillers, especially with such man in the backfield as, Williams, Johnson and Coble. Johnson is a new find, but he proved himself equal to the task.
BOOKERS DOWN CATHOLIC TEAM
The fighting Bookers outchucked, out generalized, out played, and out van the scrappy eleven of St. Joseph high school at League Park Thursday, of last week in a flashy game before an array of representatives of both schools which filled the air of a pleasant November day with the spirit of the gridiron forefeet.
The football squad of the Catholic school made its gridiron debut about three weeks ago when it was credited with a win over the Royal A. C. and the game put up against the more seasoned play-

ers and team as a whole of Booker. Washington high school was as good as could be expected. The energy an deftfort displayed by the youngsters bid fair to a future, squad of merit and a team which may prove one of the keenest rivals of the Bookers.
Couch Wilson had his aggregation on edge for this fray and it rumped up and down the field almost at will. At the beginning of the game, however Washington played cautious, taking no chances on having the breaks against it, but after the first tally which was the result of Lloyd Williams' 52-yard race to the final white mark, the Bookers cut loose and did not let up until time ended the contest. In the second period, the entire squad of second string men was sent into the fray to get a taste of the gore and the Saints were still unable to stem the trend of battle. And here also, was where an unknown sprung into the limelight. A player who had made himself content with warming a place on the bench and watching the game from the sidelines, was sent in with the scrubs, sometimes called second string men in better football vernacular and covered himself with some of the laurel wreaths which his teammates have been enjoying all season. Johnson of the scrub squad handled the pigskin with the dexterity of a 'vet' and proved to be a consistent ground gainer. He also ran up pumps with a telling effect and to cap the climax, very soon after he entered the game, he lifted the oval over the uprights for a field goal. Had this been the only score of the game, it would have been a contest with a melo-dramatic aspect.
Washington's second score came, when Coble completed a pass with Boyd on the receiving end for 26-yards and John Williams made the extra point by a drop kick.The final score was a repetition of the second, only J. Williams was on the receiving end of the pass and it, too was for 26 yards. The breaks

were against the Bookers, when it came to receiving penalties, losing 60 yards for infractions. St. Joseph-only earned their first downs. Both squads played well, Washington's subs as well as the regulars, but Johnson's work stood out far above the rest, because playing done by the first string men has become a common place thing and it is expected of them in every game.

OUT
New York, Nov. 13—Kid Norfolk, co-led light-heavyweight champion of the world has been matched to meet Tom Gibbons who went the limit, with the world's heavyweight champion, Jack Dempsey in Shelby last summer.
Gibbons and Norfolk are scheduled to meet in Madison Square Garden, December 8, for the New York Christmas fund. The bout is to go fifteen rounds or less and both men will have to make 175 pounds.
Tex Rickard is the matchmaker for the committee in charge of the charity campaign and is trying to get a light-heavyweight championship involved.
Mike McTigue, the world's champion and Geene Tumy, the American title holder, have refused to fight either Gibbons or Norfolk. Both men are extremely cautious in picking their matches, therefore under the circumstances, the winner of the Gibbons-Norfolk affair may probably be recognized unofficially as the champion and it

is also understood that Richard will offer a belt to the winner. Kid Norfolk, who has been recognized for several years as one of the fastest and best punching cruisers, in the game, has been experiencing the same trouble as Gibbons in securing work in the padded mit industry, but he finally accepted the offer and the match was made.
MORRIS BROWN FALLS BEFORE MOREHOUSE
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 8--Morris Brown failed to break down the tradition that exists between the two colleges. During the many years that these schools have been playing football together, Morrison has never lost to Morris Brown. Many thought that this tradition would be broken down this year and they had good reasons for thinking so. Morris Brown has a heavy, experienced line; and in 'Sleepy' Edwards one of the best kickers of the Southern Conference.
The lone tally of the game came in the third period. The Morehouse backs gave the spectators a

from parties and petting at seven-
teen to mariage and resopnsibili-
ties at twenty-one.
Of course, there is a wonderful
DeMille party, a dance floor laid
out over’ a pool with interesting
connecting bridges. “All of | this
is preceded by a colorful beach se-
quence, utilizing a myriad strik-
Ing novelties, and featuring an cx-
citing race between twenty girls
on surf boards behind fast speed-
boats.
Mix in a struggling couple in a
Harlem flat, a mid-ocean fight be-

it may readily be. seen that’ De-
Mille is back again in all his old

Trying To Hoodwink
Negro Baptists
‘The Camouflage of the Jncetpo:
rated Convention Further Ex-
nosed—More Deception
Newport News, Va.— (Special) —
More camouflage, more hoodwink-
ing and other deceptions that are
being practiced upon honest | yet
uninformed Negro Baptists have
come to light in these parts, This
time it is in the nature of a “certi-
fieate of ownership” that is being
sold to the Baptist Churches and
individuals throughout the United
States by the Incorporated Bap-
lists in their effort to raise money
fo pay for a Publishing House
Building so we are informed. This
“certificate of ownership" purports
to give the holder certain rights
and holdings in a building located
at Nashville, “Upon,a thorgugh in
vestigation, it developed that the
Incorporate Baptists, not all of
them but some of them are trying
to have the Baptists believe that
if their churches or Sunday schools
will advance certain sums of mon-
ey, they will get a cash dividend
out of the profits of what they
term a great building. However,
this plan was nipped in the bud
when it was found out that no such
a thing eould obtain and very few
of the certificates have therefore
been disposed of in the Old Do-
minfon State, so we learned this
week.
Dividends and Profits
We are told that in offering
these “certificates of ownership"
the people ere promised that they
would receive or get profit in mon-
ey of monetary consideration out
of the revenue from’ the Institu-
tion when in reality we are told
that the Sunday School Publishing
Board is an-eleemosynary Institu-
tion with a welfare Charter and
that the laws of Tennessee would
prohibit the declaring of Dividends
qn cash to be paid to churches or
to, individuals as there is no capi-
tal stock, and hence, nothing. upon
which to derive or pay a dividend.
It is also circulated up this way
that much dissatisfaction is al-
ready apparent on account of the
manner in which the people are be:
ing misinformed as. to the real
status. It is just reaching this
State that there are two corpora-
tions. One is the Convention char-
tered in Washington, D. C., with
its own Board of Directors and
then a Publishing Board chartered
in. Nashville, another corporation
with a separate Board of Directors,
both operating under two different
State Laws; one under the State
of Tennessee and the other under
the District of Columbia. Well in-
formed lawyers and legal minds in
this state deelare that one corpora.
tion cannot own another where
there is no capital stock when they
are in two separate States, as that
would involve State Tights. It is
shown also here that the word
“ownership” does not appear any-
where in the charter of the Sun-
day School Publishing _ Board,
which would give title in fee sim-
ple to the Washington D. C., cor-
poration, yet that js what has been
told to Negro Baptists that 2
building and Publishing House was
put up in Nashville owned by the
Incorporated Convention. Baptists
are being deceived and hoodwinked
by the Word so repeatedly used in
the charter which says, “The Sun.
day School Publishing Board of
Tennessee affiliated with and con.
trolled by the National — Baptist

If Colored America is considered
as an integral part of the body

by the declaration of Mr, Mat-
thews will be dealt with upon mer.
it, It is contended by a group of
dailies that Democratic failure was
due to bringing up religious and
racial issues.
In lookin gback, it must be re-
called that one of’ the causes wa,
that Colored America was sought
after by all of the leading candi-
‘dates. All of the parties had Col-
ored bureaus, and all of the can-
‘didates gave’ distinct understand.
ing that “if elected, all citizens will
be given a square deal.” None of
the party spckesmen was bolder
than John W. Davis, the Democrat-
ic candidate for President. There
is a wide opinion that Mr. Davis
though not elected President, will
be held in high esteem by Colored
American for the principles he
enunciated in his Halem address
during the campaign. “Mr. Davis,

Very naturally following the

too early to get into details. The
public will be fully informed of all
the trend of events. However, in
talking with a number of people,
in various sections of the country,
it is disclosed that the people gen-
erally, and the present day leaders
in particular, are more interested
in getting justice than they are in
getting jobs. On the subject, of
jobs, nevertheless, this point will be
stressed with those having the pow-
er of appointment, according to the
best authority: “The time is here
when it must be understood that
no two or three thousand dollar
clerkship can be given to a colored
citizen, ond have it thought that
it will be regarded as substantial

rests solely with the Community

that last year prior to the hegin-

various elements of the population

were taken this year. On the other
hand it appears that a white com-
mittee was appointed to advise the
Community Chest Fund board on
matters pertaining to colored wel
fare, and these appointments came
too late for this committee to make
a proper study of conditions as
they existed.

The Governor of Illinois Celebrates Re-Election By Pardoning Eleven
Men. Sentenced to Juliet Penitentiary for Participation in East St. Louis Riots Seven Years Ago, Get Executive Clemency
Springfield, Ill., Nov. 13.—(P. N. S.)—Gov. Small celebrated his rejection here Wednesday by pardoning eleven men, seven of them Negroes, who were sent to Joliet for participation in the East St. Louis race jiots seven years ago. "Those men were no more guilty than hundreds of others who took part in these riots," the Governor intimated in explanation of his pardon. The act of clementy was given political significance by many observers, as these men were prosecuted and convicted by the efforts of E. J. Brundage, who has been one of Gov. Small's most foremost enemies, and who pushed the prosecution against Gov. Small. Gov. Small said in a statement: During the past three years the people of East St. Louis and St. Clair county have made a continuous drive for executive clemency for the men, both white and colored, who were convicted in the
Baltimore, Md., Nov. 13—Special)—David E. Over of Denver, Colo., has accepted the pastorate of the Union Baptist Church, this city. While it was known for some time that Dr. Over had been extended this call, it was not until recently that he came here, looked over the situation, held a conference with the church officials and decided to accept the call. Union Church has been without a pastor for nearly two years. In fact, no call had been extended to any one since the death of the late Dr. Harvey Johnson, who was the last pastor and who had looked after this congregation of Baptist believers for more than fifty years.
Beaumont, Texas, Nov. 5, 1924. (Special)—Announcement was made here today by the Baptist Ministers' Organization that the 1925 session of the Sunday School Congress will be held in this city. Beaumont's invitation was extended by a special committee and delegation that visited the Cincinnati session, and it was renewed by this same committee when they went to the National Baptist Convention in Chicago during the month of September, and re-enforced when the Texas delegation stopped off at Nashville on their way home from the Convention. Beaumont succeeded in distanceing the other cities because of the fact that it had the solid support of the Chamber of Commerce and the ministers' organization of the city, the county and South Texas. Henry A. Boyd, the secretary of the Congress at Nashville, Tenn., confirmed Beaumont's selection in a wire today.
NEW METHODS OF WORK HELP RACE FARMERS
NEW METHODS OF WORK HELP RACE FARMERS
(Special to The Journal and Guide.)
Raleigh, N. C., Nov. 14.—A summary of work done by the 18 local Negro farm agents reveals the fact that the colored farmers of North Carolina are eager to learn the most modern methods of good farming and respond in a highly satisfactory way to the teachings and suggestions of the agents.
"The local Negro agents are employees of the State College Extension Division, just as the white county agents are," says C. R. Hudson, in charge of this work for the college.
I have completed a summary of their activities for the quarter ending October first, and I find that during the first three months the agents held 286 farmer's meetings, with an attendance of 24,703. They held also thirty-six field meetings, where 854 colored farmers gathered. For young folks, 90 meetings were held, with 2,474 children present and a total of 74 clubs were organized with an enrollment of 1,494 members.
"In addition to these gatherings, the agents have visited the farm homes where they have studied the field demonstrations and advised with the owners. They enrolled over 2,000 colored farmers in garden work and helped to have many boues painted or whitewashed. They also have done much work in having the premises improved, some conveniences installed and better farming methods adopted. "This fall 23 community fairs, entirely for Negroes were organized, and held in eight counties having colored farm agents, and at Ahoskie a district fair was held with exhibits from six surrounding counties. All of these fairs were organized by our local agents."

East St. Louis riot cases.
East St. Louis riot cases.
"Three years ago the public officials of East St. Louis, backed by a large delegation, which included practically all the business men and leading citizens, began a drive for the extension of executive clemency to those incarcerated in what is known as the riot cases.
"The families of the men incarcerated have suffered extreme hardships during the past seven years. Release by executive clemency, in effect, cuts off the last year of these sentences.
"Without exception all the prisoners have had clean reacres in the institution during the seven years of their incarceration. Since they are serving the minimum sentence for murder, an act of executive clemency offers the only means by which they can be given the extra good time which they have earned under the progressive merit system."
Woman Injured When Cars Collide
Rutherford, N. J., Nov. 13.—(P. N. S.)—A touring car driven by Schuyler Graham, of 53 Ogden St., Newark, was struck and overturned by the coupe driven by Dr. Geo. P. Ellice of Maple street, this place, at Union avenue and Chesnut street at a late hour election night. Mrs. Sadie Van Dych, a passenger with Graham, was treated by Dr. W. E. Ogden for abrasions.

The occasion was a dinner party given by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Ward in honor of Mr. W. M. Compton, of Greensboro, and his fiancée, Miss Bessie McPhail, of this city. After the elaborate dinner many speeches of felititation were made to the happy young couple who were married on the following day.

New York, N. Y., Nov. 13.—(A. N. P.)—General Plutareco Elias Calles, president-elect of Mexican plans to use Hampton and Tuskegee institutes as models in establishing similar schools in his country, the "Tiger of Sonora" declared before leaving here for Washington.
President Calles, while in New York, conferred with officials of the Hampton-Tuskegee Endowment Fund, with headquarters at 5 Maiden Lane, on the methods employed at the two American institutes. Following the conference he issued the following statement:
"It is my earnest hope as president of Mexico to aid in the introduction of a system of education which may raise the masses of the Mexican people. I am particularly impressed with what I have learned of the two great schools in the South, Hampton and Tuskegee.
"Their practical system of education with special reference to character building and fitting men to be farmers and effective teachers appeals to me strongly. I have heard with great interest of the way the Hampton-Tuskegee idea is being adopted in other parts of the world, and I hope before long to see Mexico have its Hampton and Tuskegee also."
The General Education Board, of the Rockefeller Foundation, recently gave striking recognition of the importance of the work being done at Hampton and Tuskegee by pleasing $1,000,000 toward a new $5,000,000 endowment fund for the two schools.

Mrs. Carrie B. Tuggle, A Prominent Educator Is Claimed By Death
Founded School and Orphanage With $2.50 Capital. During Twenty-one Years of Welfare Effort, Women Supported Her
Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 14.—Mrs. Carrie B. Tuggle, president and founder of the Tuggle Institute, social and welfare worker, and termed by Southern whites as the female Booker T. Washington in Negro educational matters, died at her home here last Wednesday following a long illness, at the age of 65 years. While Mrs. Tuggle had been confined to her bed for approximately six months from a nervous breakdown, her condition was not considered serious until Sunday.
She was born May 29, 1859, at Eufaula, Ala. After the Civil War, Mrs. Tuggle, with her parents, who had been slaves, remained with the former master until she was of age then she went to Montgomery, whence she came to Birmingham 40 years ago. In this city she met and married J. L. Tuggle, a postal employee and prominent figure in fraternal affairs. Mrs. Tuggle, who at that time was employed in the Ward family, lived with her husband in the rear of the Ward home.
In 1903, Mrs. Tuggle was summoned for the first time into court as a welfare worker in the interest of two colored boys. While there the judge said in the hearing of those in court: "something will have to be done about the Negro waits of this city. Running loose as they do breeds criminals." This set Mrs. Tuggle's alert mind to working and on September 3, 1903, with the mounfical sum of $2.50, she started what is now known as the Tuggle Institute. The venture proved a fight from the beginning. At first Mrs. Tuggle and some working colored women managed to erect a wooden building without floors and began to collect orphans into it.

so that a girl will marry the man
who has a taste for the same cigar-
ettes she makes—and will provide

He—How did your father get

She—I'm not sure, but I think mother found him in neutral and cranked him up.
Roscoe Is a Bear For Punishment Erwin, Tenn. Oct. 3.—For the fourth time in 10 days, this county was stirred by the shooting of Roscoe Hollyfield by Noah McInturifr between here and the Fishery.—Knoxville, Sentinel.
Roscoe is probably saving soap wrappers for a premium pistol to retaliate with and hopes to have enough by Christmas so he can pep up the Yuletide.
He—Remember when we first met in the revolving door at the post office?
She—But that wasn't the first time we met.
He—Well, that's when we started going around together, wasn't it?
Wife—Don't you think this is a duck of a hat, dear?
Husband—Yes, but I'd prefer a duck with a smaller bill.

Court Welfare Worker
School Grows Rapidly
The school and orphanage grew,
Five years ago they were preparing
to burn the last mortgage, the
buildings burned to the ground,
Mrs. Tuggle, however, was not discouraged. She rallied the Negro women around her and appealed to the whites as well as Negroes for aid. For the second time her efforts met with success.
At present the school stands, 2 two-story buildings, one one-story building, three cottages and a hospital, as a memorial to Mrs. Tuggle's unceasing efforts.
Her efforts did not end with her educational work. She took an active part in the promotion of church work—being one of the oldest members of St. John A. M. E. Church here, and is said to have been an active member of every Negro woman's organization in the State of Alabama and several of the woman's national organizations.
Founded Secret Order
Seventeen years ago, Mrs. Tuggle founded the Rising Sons and Daughters of Protection and for a number of years she served as Mother Protector of the organization. She held high office in the Court of Calanthe. During her 21 years of social and welfare work she gathered together 11,000 Negro women who were always ready to support her in anything she undertook to do.
The work is being carried on by her son-in-law, D. D. Mitchell, superintendent and S. C. Blivins, vice president, who have taken up the work where Mrs. Tuggle left off.
Mrs. Tuggle is survived by one daughter and five grand children, Alabama whites regarded Mrs. Tuggle as the most upstanding race woman in the South especially in Alabama.
Rev. Bowling says if you're right inside you can stand anything from the outside.
They met face to face one morning. Such was the flip of fate.
He was starting the fires in the furnace—
She was coming in from her date
The radio cut out a lot of political "blah" and bunk in campaign speeches—but the high soprano voices of the female spell binders were heard abroad in the land just the same. Doubtless they insist on the last word, still.
Merchants who advertise in this newspaper know what to expect—profitable results, and they are never disappointed.

CHRISTMAS SEAL CAMPAIGN PLAN NOW UNDER WAY
Virginia Tuberculosis Association Distributing Seventeen Million Seals, To Aid In Fight Against Plague.
---
Richmond, Va., Nov. 13—This year the Virginia Tuberculosis Association has conducted a series of conferences on the Christmas Seal Sale at different points in the State. Dr. Wm. M. Smith, Executive Secretary, Miss Leslie C. Foster, Assistant Secretary and Miss Rita Izard, Field Worker, have conducted these meetings, which to date have been held at Norfolk, Danville, Lynchburg, Roanoke and Bristol. Others scheduled are to be in Charlottesville, Alexandria, Harrisonburg and Fredericksburg. The chairmen from the group of counties accessible to these points are asked to attend the meetings, where the plans for the coming sale are outlined and methods of selling and advertising are discussed.
Already arrangements have been completed for the Seal Sale in most of the counties of Virginia, and also the cities, and organizations will be perfected in the remaining ones very shortly. Because of the fact that organization for the sale is nearly complete so early it is hoped that the sale will be unusually large this year.
Seventeen million Christmas seals are being distributed in Virginia through the branches of the Virginia Tuberculosis Association.
The 1924 seal shows a woman's figure, representing Knowledge, holding aloft a flaming torch, while she rests upon the shield of the double barred cross, which is the emblem of the fight against tuberculosis. The seal which was designed by a well known artist, is unusually rich in coloring.

I have received so many letters regarding bobbed hair that I feel the subject must be of vital importance to nearly every girl and woman of our group. Some writers urge me to condemn the style; some beg me to endorse it.
The bob is a glorious style for the woman of youth and vivacity; and it is becoming to some other types. Study the photos here; notice how the different types of beauty have used the different bobs. Notice Violet Holland's demure expression; could she dress her hair like Bobby Holmes? Or like Emma Jackson?
To bob or not to bob depends upon the HAIR. Coarse, kinky, unruly hair must first be tamed—and the taming is easy.
JUST DO THIS: Put a little Golden Brown Hair Dressing in the palm of the hand, slick it over hair and rub well into the scalp. Then comb any way you want—that is all.
Golden Brown Hair Dressing is a dainty, exquisite toilet preparation, highly perfumed. Use it instead of straightening combs or messy pressing oils. Use it and dress your hair in any style you wish.
Write me today for my own Beauty Book containing the famous Golden Brown 24-hour beauty treatment.

VOLUNTEER FIREMEN PREVENT BAD BLAZE
VOLUNTEER FIREMEN PREVENT BAD BLAZE
(Special to the Journal and Guide.)
Ahoskie, N. C., Nov. 14—Prompt work by volunteers from Ahoskie's colored belt prevented a disastrous fire here Sunday morning at eleven o'clock, when the blaze was discovered in the engine room of the Branning Manufacturing Company's large lumber plant. The mill's fire whistle sounded as people were gathering for Sunday school, and but for the fine work of several race people who live adjacent to the mill, the town's largest single industrial plant would have gone up in flames. As it was, the damage was confined mainly to the engine room, and the only material loss was the burning of the large driving belt, valued at $1,500. The fire started from a spark
emitted from one of the smokestacks falling against the framing in the boiler room, adjacent to the engine room.
Women Believe Youth Of His Big Bank Roll
Newark, N. J., Nov. 12.—According to reports Joseph Kubulus, an urbane youth, sought diversion among salacious women, two of whom are said to have engaged him in conversation shortly before midnight Wednesday night. He reported to the police that the women relieved him of $209 he carried in his inside vocket. He said he sensed that his money was gone as the women were about to leave him and he held on to one, he said, who made an outcry and several young men in the vicinity came to her rescue and the woman fled. The police have been unable to apprehend the women.

Beautiful Girl Reveals Secret
Once my hair was anything but long and softly as it is now, and my complexion was sallow, and there were often unsightly pimples on my face. I found 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 Pomade, I purchased a jar of Exelento Skin Beautifier. 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. Exelento Pomade and Exelento Skin Beautifier may be obtained for $29.00 at stores, or will be sent postpaid upon receipt of price by the

Col. Theodore Roosevelt failed to be elected Governor of New York State but he made a splendid campaign and is young yet with the future all before him.

Jacksonville, Fla., is said to have some ten Fraternal buildings, the proposed Odd Fellows' Temple the latest. Jacksonville is also a very wide awake center of race business enterprises.
Only twelve states, all Southern, went for Davis and Bryan. Delaware, Maryland, Missouri and even West Virginia, Mr. Davis' home State, joined the Republican victors and Kentucky elected a Republican to succeed Senator Stanley in Congress. The Republicans will have a working majority in the Senate and House.
Dr. Charles H. Roberts, who ran for Congress in the Twenty-first District of New York, failed of election. It seems to be impossible to get another Afro-American in Congress, the late George H. White of North Carolina being the last, if we remember correctly. But we are bound to have another, and many more, if we keep on a-coming. It is up to us.
Senator La Follette the Progressive candidate lost every state except his own Wisconsin, but had nerve enough left after the smash to announce through his chairman that he had just begun to fight. He must be some John Paul Jones who does not know when to stop fighting, or some Cassabranca who does not know when the ship has burned under him. Anyhow, all the world admires a brave fighter, and Senator La Follette is one. But the wise ones who figured that La Follette would sweep the Northwest and other states must have had their nerves badly shattered.
Deplorable Conditions
There is entirely too much lawlessness and too many criminals are running at large in this city. There are gangs of outlaws here who make their living preying upon an unsuspecting populace. There are numberless dens of vice that are incubators of crime and makers of criminals. Almost every lawabiding citizen can put his hands upon one or more of these places—some of which are running wide open and have been doing so for years. The streets at times in the uptown section are almost impassable for denizens of the underworld and there are some streets upon which a respectable man or woman may well fear to tread after darkness.
The vulgarity and profanity that may come to one's ears on almost any of the uptown streets morning, noon and night, is startling.
Such conditions are deplorable and ought to be remedied. It is the only way to reduce the enormous amount of criminality with which the city is so badly infested, for as long as there are incubators for the making of criminals it is impossible to rid the city of them.
In inviting the cooperation of colored citizens in stamping out these evils, City Manager Causey is taking a forward step.
In all the cities of the South where there is an active and functioning Interracial Committee, crime is reduced to a minimum and is a splendid racial feeling existing. Such a committee Norfolk needs and needs badly. Some years ago an Interracial Committee was organized here but since that time we've heard little of its activity. Now is a good time to revive the organization and keep it going as there is great need of cooperation between the local leaders of both races in the suppression of gun tooters, criminal incubators and criminals generally.
Editorial Page of
Officer Vellines
The entire community mourns the loss to the city and to the Police Department of Officer William J. Vellines, who came to an untimely death at the hands of a notorious and dangerous criminal while in the act of placing him under arrest. There have been many conflicting stories as to how the shooting occurred, but, however it occurred, Officer Vellines was in performance of his duty, attempting to rid the community of a dangerous menace that has jeopardized the lives of many. As an officer he was one of the most efficient of the local police force, having a peerless record for fearlessness in the discharge of his duty. It is quite likely that the officer did not realize the desperate character of his prisoner. If he had, he would not have taken the chance of leading him to the police telephone box unhandcuffed. This in itself is evidence of the fine characteristics of Officer Vellines who had been in the habit of treating his prisoners humanely.
The Way It Is Done in South Africa
We have had some horrible miscarringes of justice in the South, where the race has been so victimized by mob violence, and we are glad to note that, during the past year, matters appear to be growing better in this respect; but we have had nothing more shocking than the case of a young Native girl, in the Union of South Africa, which has aroused the Natives to a high state of indignation and protest and brought out a proposal from the leaders of one of the strongest Native organizations that the Chiefs of the many tribes in the Union adopt the policy of the East Indian mystic Ghandi of non-cooperation with the European rulers and merchants in the country.
The facts are as follows: A young white farmer had a Native servant girl, sixteen years old, whom he mistreated. She ran away, taking refuge in a Native school. He pursued her, in company with his brother, and although she fled from the school, he overtook her and dragged her three miles to his home, where he tied her up and gave her a terrible beating with a strap. Leaving her tied up he went away for an hour. When he returned she was dead. A white jury of his peers found the white farmer guilty of common assault, and the judge sentenced him to six weeks' imprisonment at hard labor. No wonder the horrible crime and the outrageous verdict have aroused the indignation and protest of the Natives and may lead to something more serious and far reaching.
The Germans and Belgians used to be the worst of European overlords in Africa. Their abuses aroused the indignation of the Christian Nations some twenty-five years ago. The British have succeeded the Germans and Belgians and are fast bringing about a condition of affairs, in the colonies and dominions, that the Home Government disclaims responsibility for, which may yet scandalize the Christian sentiment of the world. British rule in the West Indies, in the Australias, in India, in Africa, with their vast off-color populations, with little if any self-determination, is becoming by its tyranny a positive menace to the peace of the world.
Big Surprises in the Late Elections
The biggest surprise in the late elections was not that the Republican party swept the platter clean but that up to the last moment the wise ones expected that the La Follette Progressives would make such a showing as to throw the election into Congress. Instead of doing that, instead of leading Mr. Davis, Mr. La Follette fell down flat, with only his own State of Wisconsin going his way. He made a splendid showing in the voting, but he did not get the electoral votes, and they it is that count.
There were 30,000,000 ballots cast. President Coolidge received 20,000,000 of them. He carried thirty states or more, while Mr. Davis carried only a part of the Solid South, his own West Virginia, together with Maryland and Missouri coming out in the Republican column. And Kentney elected a Republican Senator in Congress. The Democrats lost New York State with the exception of the Governor. Alfred E. Smith, whom the Democratic convention refused to nominate for President, because Mr. McAdoo and the Solid South would have none of him on account of his Irish race and his Catholic religion, ran ahead of his ticket by more than a 100,000, and was the only man on his ticket to get elected. Col. Roosevelt got thrown down hard, but he is young enough to recover from the shock.
The white Republicans of the Twenty-first New York Congressional District are said to have cut the life out of Dr. Charles H. Roberts, the Afro-American candidate. The women of all races, ours in particular, played a very important part in the campaign and in the election. In Texas "Ma" Ferguson ran away for the election for
Norfolk Journal and Guide
Governor, although the klan support, it is alleged, went to the Republican candidate, and in Wyoming Mrs. Nellie Taylor Ross ran away with the governorship. That gives us two women Governors, something the country has not had before.
The Republicans will have a working majority in the Senate and the House of Representatives, and we shall reasonably expect them to enact some of the remedial legislation which the race has been clamoring for and which the party, in its platform, promises to give.

The race vote was scattered very generally between the three major parties, with the bulk of it going to the Republican party, as was to have been expected, as all bodies of citizens are slow to adopt radical changes in short order in their social, civil and economic way of thinking. Some times a whole generation has to die out before any perceptible change can be expected. But a big break in the political solidarity of the race vote has been accomplished with all of the parties making a bid for our support, and we are not likely to return to the old order. Strategically the race is in a better position today politically than it has been in the past twenty-four years. That is because it has shown some manly independence in voting.
Anyway, the country is safe and we can all go ahead and attend to the business of bettering our own fortunes and those of the country.
Community Chest Fund
It is to be regretted that circumstances arose which precluded the entrance of Colored United Charities, Incorporated in the Community Chest drive.
It appears from the facts obtainable that the Chest Fund directors omitted through an oversight to supply the Colored Charities organization with forms for filling its annual application and budget when these forms were supplied to other organizations. Subsequently the forms were furnished with an explanation of the delay, and request that they be returned within the week. Having no paid clerical workers the forms were not made out and returned as promptly as had been requested, and when they were submitted it was one day after the budget committee had passed upon and approved the applications of such organizations as are to be included in the drive. Colored United Charities were accordingly notified that their application was received too late for consideration as the budget committee declined to reopen their case.
The letter conveying this information made the suggestion, however, that the Colored United Charities might be considered for participation in the drive if the organization would submit to a reorganization involving an entire change of personnel, this arrangement subject to the approval of United Charities, white.
It is not necessary to go into details in this article as to the claim which Colored United Charities, Inc., has upon the charitably disposed public of Norfolk. Practically every person in the city that is informed upon the activities of welfare organizations knows that this organization has for a period running over ten years done yeoman service in behalf of suffering humanity.
It is also a matter of record that the success of the Community Chest fund drive among colored people last year was due largely to the energetic efforts of those connected with Colored United Charities, Incorporated.
It is not clear therefore, just why the claims of Colored United Charities should be so lightly dismissed. And neither is it apparent, upon the surface, why a condition of their receiving consideration subsequently should be a reorganization subject to the approval of white United Charities.
If a complete reorganization of Colored United Charities is essential it is apparent to this paper that no one connected with the organization objects, if it is to be done in such a manner as to preserve the usefulness and perpetuity of the corporation. From what the JOURNAL AND GUIDE can learn the officers of United Charities, Incorporated invite the fullest investigation possible.
But if it is necessary to dismantle this most useful organization with a magnificent record of achievement behind it in order to satisfy the requirements of Community Chest Fund, how is it that "Community Center," with no record at all for usefulness since the discontinuance of the health clinics and no promise of any usefulness save a theoretical "program" on paper can be included for $4,000.00 of the people's money? Before contributing to the Community Chest fund drive the people will want this question answered. They will want to know why it is desirable to throttle and dismantle one organization with a good record, and encourage and sustain another organization with no record at all.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS IN NEGRO HISTORY
BY GEORGE WELLS PARKER
Author of the Children of the Sun
Questions pertaining to Negro history anywhere if of general interest and not too long will be answered by Mr. Parker in this column. When space will not permit or the subject
Q. Who was St. Augustine?
B. R. F., Norfolk, Nebr.
A. St. Augustine was one of the fathers of the early Roman church and the first missionary to carry Christianity to the British Isles. He was black and an African by birth. As a matter of fact, most of the very prominent fathers of the Roman church were Africans. There were Ethiopians among the very first to adopt Christianity and, being great students, their learned men gave much time to the new theology. After the center of Catholicism became firmly established in Rome, many Africans went thither, among them, Augustine, Tertullian and many others. It might not be too much to say that Africans were the chief founders of the early Roman church, because we find that their impress is in all the early history of the church. In early times both Christ and the Virgin Mary were represented as black and in parts of Poland, Russia and Spain and Italy there are still shrines to the black virgin.
Q. Will you kindly advise what ancient literature may be found that has been written wholly by Negroes? C. N. G., Seattle, Wash.
A. Taking the term Negro to mean a person of African descent, it would not be possible for me to list all ancient literature belonging to our race. Keep this one thing in mind; every nation of any consequence from the beginning of human history down to the Twelfth century was either African or of African descent. Therefore all ancient literature belongs to us. The Great Greek and Roman classies are ours, the Illiad and Odyssey were the epics of a people who were brownskin, rather than mulatto in color.
I am not in favor of the custom of picking here and there some celebrity who happened to have been born in Africa, or of African parents, and making a great to do over him and what he did. The whole range of those times belongs to us and if the authors were not wholly African, they were at least of mixed blood. Homer, Herodotus, Secrates, Plato, Aeschylus, and all the rest, were of mixed blood, so why pick individuals? Claim the whole thing because it is our anyway.
Q. Who was Juan Latino? R. A. P., Chicago, Ill.
A. John Latino is mentioned in Cervantes' "Don Quixote." He was an African, or rather, a Moorish poet of Spain who flourished in the 16th century.
PUBLIC PULSE
Editor Journal and Guide,
Dear Sir:—
I have read with interest and sympathies (as I always do the outlines of Rev. R. H. Bowling's sermons), his sermon of last week, in which he speaks out on "The Sin of Murder." The sentiments therein expressed should be repeated until they are wrought into a public opinion so virile and insistent, that it will be impossible for lawyers to make successful defense for murders on legal technicalities, and shifting fancies of alienists, unwritten law and race prejudice.
It is simply alarming how far we have gone in making this country a human slaughter pen. I do not think we can repeat too often a recent article appearing in The United Presbyterian from which I quote as follows: "In 1923 there were 200 murders in all England and Wales, while there were approximately 10,000 in the United States. Frederick L. Hoffman of the Prudential Life Insurance Company informs us that for the United States the average period between 1911 and 1921 in homicide mortality per 100,000 of our population was 7.2; in Great Britain about 0.7; in Australia and South Africa, 1.9; in Switzerland, 0.2; in Holland, 0.3; in Italy, 3.6."
It is time the pulpit was thundering against this sin. And I am glad Rev. Bowling has set the pace in this locality. Very sincerely yours, D. F. WHITE Pastor of First United Presbyterian Church.

Q. To what extent were Africans distributed in the ancient world? B. L. Y., Philadelphia.
A. According to the greatest archeologists, it appears that there was a regular confederation of African races extending from the Atlantic to the China seas and from the farthest south northward to the Alps. While they are mentioned under various names such as Pelasgian, Mediterranean, Varnie, etc., they all appear to have distributed themselves from a central point in Africa. On the other hand, evidences have been found that show even in parts of America. Whether these prehistoric races were originally natives of the countries where found, or merely migrants, is a problem a little too deep for solution.
Q. Was Cheopatra a colored woman? D. K. H., Des Moines, Iowa.
A. She most certainly was.
She was light brown skin and a mixture of Greek and Egyptian blood.
Is it true that a Negro laid out the city of Washington, D. C.?
G. F. V., Washington, D. C.
Not exactly, the truth of the matter was that the government employed L'Enfant, the famous architect, to draw the plans and lay out the city. His assistant was Benjamin Banneker, a very scientific and learned Negro. L'Enfant started the work, but later became pceved with certain official examples of interference and red tape. He threw up the job and returned to France. It was then that Benjamin Banneker was asked to complete the plans, inasmuch as he was the only one familiar with them. He did so and the city of Washington, D. C., today owes to a Negro its completion according to the original plans of L'Enfant.
