Judge Dixon permitted him to be released on bond, pending the further hearing of the case on November 28.
According to Young's attorney Franklin Krehbiel, his wife, Amanda Young, was arrested by Newtown prohibition officers. She was tried in the Newtown liquor court Tuesday night and found guilty. Then a fine of $100 was assessed against her she announced that she could not pay it.
The prohibition officials did not take the idea of sending her to jail," said Attorney Krebch, "so agency arrested her husband, who had accompanied her to court.

RACE ARTIST TO PAINT PORTRAIT OF RICH DONOR
Portrait of Pierre S. DuPont To Be Unveiled at Dover, Del. Testimonial Meeting Gave Race Million.
Dover, Del., Nov. 20—(P. N. S.)—A Negro artist, Edward A. Harleston, will paint the portrait of Pierre S. DuPont benefactor of Negro schools, which will be unveiled at a state testimonial meeting in Dover on December 5th. This announcement was made this week by Mrs. Maud S. Thompson, president of the DuPont Testimonial Association, which has been organized to arrange a State-Wide public meeting at which the portrait will be unveiled.
The DuPont Testimonial Association was organized, according to its officers, not only to give personal testimony of the appreciation of Delaware to the man who gave a million dollars to erect schools for Negroes, but to pass on to the country the spirit that has made Delaware public county schools for colored people the best in the country.
Considerably more than a million dollars has been donated by Mr. DuBont to Negro schools with the result that every building in the State is modern and up-to-date and completely equipped.
Not only this, but when the Delaware State Board of Education considered the proposition of building new schools for the whites and giving the old buildings to the colored people, Mr. DuPont objected stating that any school not fit for white pupils was not fit for colored.
To Unveil Portrait
One of the features of the material will be the unveiling of portrait of Mr. DuPont by Rar-
Harleston, whose home is Weston, S. C., is regarded as leading portrait painter. He was recommended this portrait by Dr. W. F.
of the X. A. A. C. P.
and also be a program in including educators of the will take part.

Twenty-Seven Companies Operating In One City Cut Down Profits Materially For All.
Chicago, Ill. Nov. 21—(A, N.

an interesting company's moss.
They "look" right away. The drivers,

Twenty-five Companies
A few months after the advent of the new test company, there appeared another company, and another, and another, until today there were twenty-seven colored companies in Chicago, having modern cars from or to one hundred in man.
An official of one of the older companies recently stated that the overheard so-called is due to a change of tactics by the manufacturers, was stated that one of the first companies organized experience can difficultly in getting consideration from the manufacturers, so when all conditions were promptly meet, the manufacturers finally added. Then, in after months when it was seen that the venture was successful, a "company" could act with a "wish and a promise." Now, some of the larger investors are wondering whether there is an effort on to "blood the business" so that no one can make a profit. There has been a reliable discussion of consolidating one of the larger companies Washington, D. C, has modern car service, and there is an effort to encourage the establishment of jobs in companies in all the large cities with local capital. Chicago promoters say: "We are simply giving this as a tip for real enterprises. We are not proposing to get into business in other cities we have our banks full in China."

ELECTROCUTE 17-YEAR OLD
Columbia, S. C., Nov. 21 — (A. N.
N.) - Reuben Robinson, 17, con-
fected of attempted criminal as-
sault, was electrocuted Friday
morning at the state penitentiary.
He is alleged to have confessed to his guilt.
Robinson was sent to the chair despite a plea to the egovernor for mercy. The governor was unwilling to take a hand in the case, despite the youth of the offender and despite his ignorance. Robinson could neither read nor write. In a letter to the condemned boy, the governor referred to the boy's act as a horrible crime even though it was never completed.
Many presons here commented on Robinson's crime and punishment tin connection with that of the Leopold and Loob boys in Chicago. They murdered and kidnapped a boy in Chicago. They finished their crimes. They were white. The penalty for both their crimes was death. However, they were sentenced to life imprisonment because of their youth and inspire of their superior education. Robinson was younger than either of them, could not read nor write, believed in God, which the Chicago boys did not, and still got the worst of it.

As soon as the Indian had secured himself against capture he reminded the white man that although he might not remember what had happened 20 years before, he did and that he was going to take his revenge.
Fletcher's hands were placed upon a clapping block and the Indian with one blow of an ax, cut them both of at the wrist. The white man was then turned loose. The Indian made his escape.
Fletcher explained to his rescuers that twenty years before, he had won a lawsuit against a half-breed. During a fight with the Indian he struck him with apair of brass knucks.

Steps On Huntington To Tune Of 13-7, In a Lop-Sided But Exciting Gridiron Bout In Newport News.
BY WILLEY A. JOHNSON
In their first out of town game
one which was bop-laded in some
stages, in others, flashy, interest-
ing, replete with thrill, spills and
all the rest that goes in the ma-
king, the fighting Books' humble
Huntington high school eleven
to the merry tune of 18-7 last Friday
at Rid Park, Newport News.
At the beginning of the struggle the Huntingtonians were clearly outclassed, but tightened up in the third period and showed some light. In spite of that slight victory, Wilson's Bookers took the going easy, and the backs ran wild almost at will. The Booker of Washington squad was at least three downs stronger than the Newport News downs, but a bad break in the game which was occurred by a Coble of Washington failing to cover his pass, which Stenson of Huntington intercepted on 81 opponents 12'gardine line and dismembered 87 yards down a clear field for the only tally for his team. This was the longest individual run in the game but not by a long shot win it the most peculiar. Lloyd Williams of the fighting Boogie came in for this bit of glory, when Huntington pointed on the fire down and Williams carefully pressing the pigskin printed down the field midst a wild array of Newport News tackles, side-stepping twisting, creasing, out running until he finally squirmed over the goal line completing his 42-yard run breaking the 7.7 tie and clinching the game for his squad.
Resort To Kicking Game
The Bookers recorded to a kicking game with Lloyd Williams and John Williams; leaping up the phase of the battle and coming some nice punts down the kick placing Washington out of danger. Huntington also got worse to the advantage of kicking early on Sedgwick did the dirty work for his team. By change of good. Huntington's punter had a slight edge over the two Williams, kicking with the wind. The game, in this stage became a kicking duel both squads, playing side and oppending on the break, but by means of punting no such thing happened.
Booker Washington and Huntington started overland work with the Huntingtonians having the advantage in this department. Bookers only complete process who Johnson, passing instead of Gold shot one to J. William two yards. Sedgewick and Stevens of Huntington completed one for 10 yards and one for two yards and for four good, was notpleted. Johnson, the new find who stepped into the fledgling in the game with the Catholics was picked up with the regulars and handled himself well, hitting Huntington line consistently for grains and attempted two field goals that by taking too much time to kick. Huntington Threatens Again
Huntington, fighting with it on avail trying hard to stem the tide of defeat that weighted heavily on its shoulders, seriously threatened to tally near near the end of the final stance, when after an exchange of points Hodgers were pushed far down into their territory. The ball was pinned on the first down and Huntington did the same thing. Washington tumbled and the Shipbuilders recovered on their opponents 10-yard line and started off line building his hindley started off like a shot out of a cannon, but fate intervened and time ended the gridiron percolate with the ball on the 9-yard line.
Touchdowns: 1. Williams, 1. Stevenson, 1. Extra points, Johnson, 1. Sedgewick, 1. First downs earned: Booker T. 5: Huntington. 2. Passes: Booker T. 1 one of 6 attempts; Huntington. 3 out of 9 attempts. Booker T. Washington. 255 yards to Huntington. 222.
Officials: Moore, referrer: Copage, unpire; Jackson, headlineman; James and Fowkes, timers.

GREAT FILM STAR IS CAPTIVATING IN HER LATEST PICTURE
Gloria Swanson has come it again. "In her new Paramount picture "Washnaddled," which is coming Tuesday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week to the Attucks Theatre, she has put another showing performance on top of her three latest, "Zaza," "The Humming Bird" and "A Society Sequel."
"Mashardfield" deals with the problems of life in New York as the shop girl finds them, and Miz Swanson, in the role of Tessie McLean, runs the whole gamut of motions, trying the white lights of Broadway, taking a whirl as being a culprit's model, spending some time posing in a modiste hap all for the love of fine Clothes and a so-called good time. But she bears in the end that the honest love of Johnny Hogan, a hard working auto mechanic, is far better than the temporary luxuries showcased upon her by culprits, department store owners, modistes and cigarette manufacturers.
Once more our glorious Gloria proves that she can do more than just in some clothes. Not only does she display the finishing dramatic ability that is supplied and delight of her nummerize in her previous production, but in "Manhattan" she ill comes out as a comedian of the first rank. One of the specially clever bits of comedy initiation she does in the picture is an imperfection of a titration count. She puts a chinny touch on, the scene that undoubtedly adds new laughs to her screen interruptions.
Our host is off to Alban Dawan, who has given the picture a debut morning. The master hand of this director is evidenced in the excellent instrument he used in playing a piano-perfect performance. Tom Morey, who will be remembered for his performance in "Big Boss," is even more famous and more convincing as the musician with whom Glorin finally finds happiness. Others in this supercast include Ann Pingleton, and Brooke Johns, the former famous Zoolofd story; Kate Knox, Frank Morgan, Paul McAlister, Frank Allworth, Lilyan Tahomas, Arthur Housman and Carrie Scott.
Whether you read the story of "Manhunted" by Arthur Stringer or not, when it was running socially in The Saturday Evening Post, from which the production was adapted by Frank Tuttle, you see the picture. There's a treat in store for you!

It is believed that the Normality

fittingness is as are preparing to
be in shape for the play.
Booker Washington has gone through the entire with only one loss and then by a bone point which had no reflection whatsoever on the midfiel of the team. The scrambling down is determined upon annoying the state homers this season and are lifting the right stride to that end. This game with State Normal and conclude the schedule for the season, capturing a proposed game with a squared composed of Alumni and undergraduates of the school. More data on this game will appear at a later date when players have assumed definite form. It can be said, however that such a game this year will be vastly different from the farce pulled off at League Park last season when the Booker team rolled the Alumni team to the time of 2016. The proposed Alumni sound this year will be comprised of men who have not been a part of the play ever a year and some are even in the hardest this season. Men who have played varsity football at the colleges will be in the line up. The colleges represent are, Union, Wilberforce and Shaw and some of the members who played with Booker Washington's aggregation last season will be in the Alumni line up, thus assuring a game of real worth.

Tallahassee's great point came in the first quarter when she blocked a Morrocos hole and carried the ball to her enemy's five yard line. Here the Morrocos line stuffed. Morrocos was able to get out of this tilt place by completing a five-yard pass to Allen. In the second quarter 15 yards was taken away from Morrocos on a penalty kick on returning a kick Tallahassee's man punched and Morrocos covered the ball on Tallahassee's Bagged line. Morrocos now started her march down the field for the first touchdown. A forward pass from Reger to Sturr added 22 yard-blocker hit over inside for five yards.

League Park Monday, the much
harried Auburn Athletic Club,
of which Boston said to have
the origin of a Boston ball pup
and the Norfolk Athletic Club
crack level aggregation battled to
6:55 dunlock before a mere hone
full of fans.
At the beginning of the game, the going looked to be very rough for the Norfolk team, because Ward got away with a thing start, after the locals were forced to punit out of danger and the visitors taking the ball on the offense. Ward started out with a completed pass for 30 yards and pushed the ball into Norfolk A. C's danger zone. Another attempt resulted in an incomplete pass behind the goal, giving the oval to the Norfolk sound. Norfolk pushed the ball down the field and Gay completed a pass for 35 yards with Smith on the receiving end. He had to fight off several men who had surrounded him, but he tricked the ball singly away. Norfolk A. C. lost its chance to score by incomplete another pass behind the opponents goal. Ward took the pigeon on the 20-yard line and on the first play, Savoy, who had subdued for Johnson, left half, executed a run for 80-yards and Ward's tally. The game so sawed for a while with Ward having the edge and Savoy proving a real merace, but he was soon forced out of the play after a pretty run and also a pretty spill.
The opening of the second half found a new Norfolk A. C, and in this half, twenty-four minutes of the best football played by locals this year at League Park was in evidence. Norfolk A. C, received the kickoff and began a rushing, slashing line driving attack that

bordered on the seintiflating and completely baffled the Marylanders. The play started from the 40-yard line and six consecutive first downs were made rushing Ward off of its feet. The ball was placed in the visitors' danger zone with each cog of the Norfolk machine working with deadly precision. Gay, rising to the height of his game and standing out in hold relief carried the oval 15-distance placing it in easy distance and Robinson carried it over trying the score, because both squads failed to register the extra point.
Gordon, Smith and Robinson were doing the dirty work in the local's backfield with "Pat" Thompson coming back occasionally to carry the ball for good gains. Jordan, the "Iron Duke," in the line gave the opposing line plenty to do to stop his rushing and charging tactics which have made him a veritable bulwark of strength, when a squad is placed on Warp A. C. played well as well the defense with its back against the wall and tied to its own goal, but the Maryland aggregation showed the class that wins games and when it had the pigskin, locals had plenty to do to keep them from seating again. Savoy, Jones and Spencer stood out for Ward, with the former showing some of the prettiest, broken field running seen here this season.
Norfolk threatened seriously to score again late in the final stanza when Ward received a penalty placing the ball on its 20-yard line. Robinson carried the ball 11 yards around his left, end, hardling in the open and crushing to the ground with a thud when tackled, causing him to lose the oval. Here Norfolk was held and the game ended in a deadlock.

BISON SQUAD GORED HAMPTON CLAN IN A TOUGH STRUGGLE
Encircling Gloom Which Spreaded Its Dark Pall Over The Gridiron Proved A Disadvantage To Both Squads
By P. BERNARD YOUNG, JR.
Washington, D. C., Nov. 14-
For the second time in three
weeks, Hampton Institute has been
outscored, but not beaten. The
first time was against the Lincoln
Lions in Philadelphia on November
1; the second time was today in
Washington against the Howard
Bisones. Both times she lost 7-3.
Completely outplayed in every
department in the opening quarters
of the game, the Seasiders went
into the lead when Gunn sent a
drop kick over from Howard's
thirty yard line in the first quarter.
In the third quarter, after
a fumble by Hampton, Howard
recovered and tried a drop kick. The
hall fell short of the goal and
Spellman, who played brilliantly
for Hampton throughout the game
at quarter, ran back with the ball
to his twelve yard line. Hampton
was penalized fifteen yards for
holding and the possession of the
ball also went to Howard, and on
Hampton's twelve yard line. In
two downs the Bisones were able
to gain only two yards. Time was

Darkness a Disadvantage
But Hampton was fighting in this game as she can fight when in her stride. A great attack attack was banched, but darkness was swiftly oncaching. The game was not called until three-thirty. This latter proved a great disjuncture to the Seasiders, rallying dangerously to overtake Howard's lead. Inside the great stadium it was almost impossible for either team to accurately handle the ball against the dark background of the double-decked grandstand. This may account for the fact that out of twelve passes attempted by Hampton in that last quarter, many of which were thrown fifty yards through the air by Hargrove and would have meant victory had they been held, only one was completed. The others were either grounded or intercepted. Five minutes before the last quarter expired it was too dark to distinguish any particular player from the sidelines.
Hampton Scores First
Dodson punted and Spellman ran twenty yards to Howard's twenty-two yard line. Thatcher and Mansfield wart five yards on line thrusts. Then came Hampton's score and the three points which should have been the margin of victory. Gunn, playing the greatest all-around game of his career, dropped back to Howard's thirty yard line and sent the oval sailing over for three points on a dropkick.
After this both teams engaged in a punting duel with Gunn of Hampton getting off some of his best points of the season and keeping Howard in her territory. Nothing happened in the way of actual scores again until the eventful third quarter.
Howard Wins
Howard's tally came early in the third period. Hampton kicked off to Howard's two-yard line and Payne, substituting for Blackmon, ran the ball to his twenty-three yard line. McLean darted through the line for five yards; Striplin added one. No consistent gains could be made through the Seasiders' line, around their ends, or over their heads, so Dodson kicked and Gunn received the pun on his forty-eight yard line. On the first play Hampton elected to pass, but the attempt was incomplete. Gunn gained eight yards on a thrue through center, but Hampton lost the ball on the next play and Howard recovered on Hampton's forty five yard line. McLean gained five yards on the first play, but on the second Spellman broke up a Howard pass. Payne came through with three yards, and then elected to try for a tie by scoring a dropkick. The ball fell short and was returned to Hampton's twelve yard line by Spellman. Hampton was penalized fifteen yards far down in her territory for holding while on the offense and Howard was also given possession of the ball on Hampton's twelve yard line. Howard gained two yards on two plays. On the next play Brown shipped off his left end and broke away from Mansfield after receiving a pass from Payne and scored the winning tally. Payne place-kicked for the extra point. Score 7-3.
Hampton opened up an aerial attack in a desperate effort to secure the victory, but Howard's defense was racing all over the backcovering Hampton players and breaking up passes. Then came darkness; which made it impossible to see accurately. Just before the final gun, Brown of Howard intercepted a Hampton pass and raced from midfield to Hampton's 18 yard line before Howard was within the five yard line as the game ended. Hampton was held for downs in the third quarter on Howard's 12-yard line Hampton tried eighteen forward passes. Two were completed. Many more were dropped after being in some player's hands. Twelve of these passes were tried in the "dark quarter"; one was completed in that quarter. Howard made four first downs; Hampton made one first down.

Howard's much talked of line was pierced time and again by Hampton backs, but Hampton took no chances and usually kicked on the third down. On the defense

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE
Hampton linesmen stood out more brilliantly than did Howard, downing Howard backs repeatedly for considerable losses. Jimmie Jones put up the most seismilifting game of the present season. Dunlap Jones playing the opposite end for Hampton continued to be a terror to opposing backs. Creasy and Lee in tackle, Alexander and Coleman in guard, and Pindle in center spilled Howard runners often. In the Seasiders' backfield Gunn, playing his last season in a blaze of glory, kicked, passed and ran until the harried enemy was leg weary and brain tagged trying to block his kicks or stop his sweeping run after intercepting passes or on a line thrust. In fact, the way both lines and backfields played was a splendid tribute to teams that might be beaten or outscored, but wouldn't quit. Spellman did great work for Hampton, bringing up Dodson's punts. Thatcher and Mansfield worked well for Hampton, gaining good yardage when called on. The reserve material of both teams played well.
McLean was Howard's best ground gainer. He crushed thru for Howard's most consistent gains. Payne and Brown aided materially in the final victory for the Bisons. Howard's entire line was good, but was outclassed on the ends.
Hampton played the game under protest because Miller, a guard with Union last year, was played when the rules of the C. L. A. A. rendered him ineligible.

Wills Declines Bout With Tom Gibbons
New York, Nov. 29—It has been learned that Harry Wills, heavy-weight championship contender was recently summoned to appear before the Athletic Commission to confer on a possible match with Tommy Gibbons, the St. Paul phantom. Wills would not accept the match, because of a bad thumb the result of his fight with Luis Firpo last September. It was also learned that Wills said the injury to his thumb had handicapped him seriously in the Firpo fight. He said, in the first round, he jabbed with his left hand and in so doing sprained the member and rendering it unfit for use during the remainder of the match. This Wills explained, was why he fought the battle with his right, and did not knock out "Dead Pan Louis."
Attacking Another
Fleurance, Min. Nov. 29, (P. N.
S.) Not satisfied with having attacked and she in death Jerry Williams, a young Negro, Early Hale, a young white man, is said to have used the tint end of his shurgeto lift the lifeless body of Williams and while in the act of clobbing the lifeless form Hale's gun discharged and instantly killed him.
Hale, who is said to have been drinking for several days past, and for no known reason shot and killed the aged Negro who was gathering corn at the time of the attack. It is alleged that Hale yelled at the old man and told him to get out of his sight before he got killed. The old man started to run. Hale took out after him and fired one barreled shot into the old man's body. The man dying instantly. Then Hale ran up to the body and began clubbing him over the head with the butt end of a double-barreled shot gun. The other barreled was accidently fired when Hale hit the old man over the head and he was also instantly killed. Hale was unmarried and lived with his parents near the scene of the heinous crime.

---
Time has romped gleefully down the world and Turkey Day is just around the corner with a football menu of merit danced out. The Thanksgiving grid card is jammed full of interesting meldes which are slated to get under way. Probably the public at large cannot stand the service moments of waiting without all this immediate chatter and for the age old saying "are you ready Skookum?" then a tense moment of death-like silence and again, addressing the other squad, "are you ready Hole'ens?" then the shrill notes of the referee's whistle and all the rest of it. With Thanksgiving less than a fortnight off much interest is in evidence with the Howard-Lincoln "Classic of the Year", at Washington leading the parade as usual. Of course, a good bit of attention is focused on other C. I. A. A. scraps with Union and Hampton undoubtedly leading the fray in this neck of the woods, while down in the Old North State, it is said Livingstone and Johnson C. Smith take the gravity, packing in around 10,000 wild-eyed spectators at their annual clash.
Once again, we never around the Mystic Ornule, Pering as jar as the human eye can see—
But after all, the human eye is only human.
And we ask fate to protect this final prophecy.
HOWARD-LINCOLN — Washington. Here, brothers and lover of the wide open spaces of the white chalked inocence is the battle of the year, where, usually all the opposing army is given vent and the storm of battle waxes fast and furious throughout the grueling clash of body against body and also, against the ground, Lincoln is voted the edge over the Bison chin which has also, gone through the season without a loss. From indications, Howard usually uses everything in reserve for this clash, while Lincoln starts out like a wild bull and never lets up until all is said and done. Coach Morrison may have the better all round back field in Payne, McLean and Braden, but the Lion boasts of the better back for individual performance, "Jazz" Byrd who has proved to be the downfall of more than one eleven this season, seems to be without a peer. Howard has no more Donghong to cope with the fleet bound Byrd and Lincoln may slip away before the dark shadows of a November eve clamps the lid on activities. Howard has a strong line, that is voted the margin over the Lion pack, but Lincoln is not far in the background. Be it as it may neither squad will have too much to spare, but Lincoln should care over aided by the educated toe of Crudup.
PETERSEPTG-VA, SEMI-
NARY. Petersburg. And here is
where the Hilloppers should not
experience tions of difficulty in
sweeping on to victory. This
is not an underestimation of the merits of the Deaconess squad, but Petersburg has, to date shown the class that wins football games. Oh yes, it ought to be a struggle—a game is not a game without that.
---
HAMPTON UNION—Hampton.
And the Sanders are down to go down again in defeat. Union runs the race that also, wins and wins when, Hoffman, Jackson, Sheldon and Moton start, it takes a real honest-to-goodness stopper to stop them. Hampton showed signs of coming back, when she bid Howard to a 7-3 win, if she plays her game, the Panthers will find trouble lying in wait, nevertheless Union should jump over. The Joneses, Pinnacle, Flaggrose and some of the lesser lights ought to be at their best in this struggle, but from past indications their best is not better than Unions.
ST. PAUL-DURHAM STATE—Lawrenceville. St. Paul ought to win in a walk, but considering the game with St. Augustine last week, the "Wonder Team" is not much on taking the full measure of weather sounds. Anyway, St. Paul should win and the margin ought to be good whether or not.
SHAW-ST. AUGUSTINE—Raleigh. Coach Martin has almost turned on a vicious Bear Brigade in the game with the rival school should be a mild affair with Shaw having the advantage in all departments of the fray. For the last few years, Shaw has always had enough left to make St. Augustine then and the victory this year should be as decisive as any in past encounters.
LIVINGSTONE-JOHN S. C.
SMITH—Sallisbury. It has been
said that Johnson C. Smith, former
Biddle has only won one game
from Livingstone in sixteen years.
From this, we gleam the fact that.
the Salisbury clan always scraps up enough to win from the Charlotte aggregation. So, here again, we stick to precedents and vote Livingstone the edge.
Then, we also have, A. and T, and Bennett at Greensboro. We have not heard anything concerning Bennett, but from A. and T's record, the former cannot be much better. A, and T, should win. Next down the line comes, Morehouse and Fiske. Morehouse's miserable showing this year makes prospects look very gloomy if Fisk has any kind of a squad. Atlanta and Morris Brown clash at Morris Brown and some of the wise ones vote Atlanta the edge. But our way of thinking is, whoever cases by cannot spot opponents anything.
Thus ends the prophet and his prophecy on gridiron governess until the crushing in of the season unborn.
LINCOLN SWAMPS
Winnington, Del, Nov. 15.—The Lincoln Lions again swamped Shaw to a score of 36-0 in a dry snow. The Lion pack ran wild and Shaw was unable to stem the trend of battle.

Official Defends Jazz
New York, N. Y., Nov. 21—(A. N. P.)—No less an authority than Otto H. Kahn, chairman of the board of directors of the Metropolitan Opera Company, comes to the defense of jazz music by declaring that, "It has more claim to ranked as an approximation to American art than a sayover, grand opera composed of painstaking erudition and technical impacability after the model of Wagner, Debussy and Strauss."
Mr. Kahn admits that it is necessary that jazz improve, that some of its erudities be removed, but sees under what ever there may be of tinsel the real fabric of the American artist. He has always been a patron of Negro music in all its forms, many of the leading Negro musicians having performed for him at private concerts.

The Howard V. N. & I. I. Game
The Howard V. N. & I. I. Game
It has been inquired of the Sports Department of this paper, why the Howard-Petersburg game played a fortnight ago at Petersburg did not receive any publicity in these columns, but appeared in other publications.
The fact is, the Norfolk Journal and Guide failed to receive a release or write-up of the game. Space was reserved for such a report until the Wednesday following Saturday of the game. Usually Petersburg has been sending in reports of games; and they were given the publicity. Howard, having its own press service bureau, also sends in copy pertaining to athletic activities, but the particular write-up referred to, now did not reach the office from either institution.
Merchants who advertise in this newspaper know what to expect—profitable results, and they are never disappointed.

FIRST CALVARY BAPTIST
CHURCH
the pastor, Dr. Allen, preached an excellent sermonette to the boys and girls of the church Sunday morning, using as his subject "No corn with old shoes." He emphasized the point by saying that most of the sin and suffering of life was due to the fact that people sought to attain spiritual blessings through methods contrary to the fundamental principles of the Bible. He urged the young people to remain steadfast in the faith of the Fathers.
Dr. Allen also delivered at the regular service an admirable spiritual message on "The Business of Life." The recital by the celebrated Williams Singers on Friday night, November 14 was a splendid success.

The Ladies' Missionary Society gave at the evening hour, 7 o'clock the first of a series of missionary programs, planned for the year which was very informing and full of interest, and deserved a much larger audience to enjoy it. Miss Constant Fuller, principal of J. C Price school, read an excellent paper crammed with information on the Child Life in the Sudan. By way of introduction, Miss Fuller gave an interesting account of missionary work as done in her own church. Mrs. Lee, of the Bethel Baptist Church Missionary Society, read an extract on "Sudanese Marriage Customs." The church chair rendered a very pleasing program of music for the occasion. Miss Bertha B. Jones president, presided.
The Senior Y. P. C. U. Society last Sabbath evening, after a most interesting Bible study and discussion on Giving, presented the Second Calvary Baptist Church Orchestra, which rendered a delightful program of music in sacred music.
A CHRISTMAS
APPEAL
To the Baptist Brotherhood:
The Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention
701 S. 19th street, Philadelphia Pa., comes to you again with out-stretched hands asking every believer in Christ to give a 1923 Christmas token of at least one cent for every year he has lived for the redemption of dark Afri-
Last year we approached you for a similar gift but reached only a few. Our appeal, however, met with success for $10,000 was given us. What a blessing that amount has been to Africa, for during the year the above named Board has sent out eleven missionaries; namely, Rev. and Mrs. J. H. Brandon, Rev. and Mrs. J. C. Caston, Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Corbin, Misses P. A. Bryan, Lula E. Cooper, Viola Carter, Sarah C. Williamson, all to Liberia, and Rev. Samuel Martin to Nigeria. Three thousand two hundred and one nerces of land have been purchased, a large industrial school has been started with eight teachers in charge. A blacksmithing outfit, wire fencing, some agricultural implements, clothes for naked children, medicines, and sacred literature in the form of Bibles and hymn books, have been sent out. All of this could not have been done but for the $10,000 given us last year.
Now the above named Board comes to the Baptist Brotherhood again. This time we are hoping to raise $25,000. In proportion as we succeed, we shall send to Africa more agricultural implements, more missionaries, more machines, scoops and shovels for road making, and more tools for wagon making and blacksmithing. Buildings will go up for housing our missionaries and giving them adequate space for church and school purposes. A large number of acres will be cleared of trees and aseless brush, and thereon we will plant groves of orange, grapefruit, banana, and coffee trees. Grass lands will also be developed by the clearing of this bush so that horses cattle and sheep may be grown. Be it remembered that during the two months Secretary East spent in Liberia this year, not one cow did he see milked, not one horse or ox used for drawing cart or ploughing. What milk and butter were used were imported from England and America.
In proportion as you make this Christmas token, the people of dark Africa will be brought in touch with Jesus Christ, who to know is life eternal. Many are singing the praises of God who would not know how to own His name but for the tokens given last year. You may not be able to go to Africa in person, but there is a way to give service by helping someone else to go.
We are sending out thousands of envelopes to pastors. Sunday school superintendents, and the workers of the churches for distribution so that every Baptist may get one. We shall be glad to supply anyone with more of these if he will write to us at the above address and apply for some. These envelopes are to be distributed among the church members. Sunday school scholars and B. V. P. U. members. Let everyone give us a Christmas token and see to it that these envelopes with their contents are returned to us before the end of December.
Thanking you in anticipation, we beg to remain.
Yours for the Master.
J. C. AUSTIN, Chairman.
J. E. EAST, Secretary.
THE NEW ERA IN WILSON
Wilson, N. C., Nov. 21—(A. N. P.)—Ioo Creekiller, white, who shot and killed Sam Jackson last month, has been lodged in jail in default of the furnishing of $5,000 bond. He is charged with manslaughter. A few years ago the white superintendent of schools slapped a colored girl teacher because she did not say "sir" to him and nothing was ever done about it.
MANY GIFTS MORE IMPORTANT THAN UNKNOWN TONGUES
MANY GIFTS MORE IMPORTANT THAN UNKNOWN TONGUES
Rev. Bowling Gives Proper Regard For Gift of Speaking With Tongues, But Stressed Love Thy Brother.
"Now I would have you all speak with tongues, said the Apostle, and so say I," declared Rev. Richard H. Bowling in a special sermon at the First Baptist Church last Sunday night. Continuing he pointed out that there was a difference to be noted between the speaking in tongues at Pentecost and that practiced in the church at Corinth. At Pentecost the apostles spoke in 'other tongues' or intelligible languages. In Corinth speaking in tongues was the unintelligible utterances of those in a state of religious cestacy, as a careful reading of the twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth chapters of Corinthians will reveal.
"And no matter how unwelcomed this fact may be to som eof us," said the preacher, "in all church history there has been no recorded duplicate of Pentecost, but there have been many duplicates in early Christian communities and some parallels in non-Christian cults of the phenomenon in Corinth. And that is what we have with us today. There is no claim even among the boldest of the 'Tongue Churches' to being able to speak so as to be understood in other languages. But there is a plenty of that unintelligible jargon resulting from ecstasy superinduced by hypnotic suggestion as practiced in certain religious services.
Modern 'Tongues' Scriptural
"But, let us remember, it was
exactly such an experience that the
Apostle was thinking of when he
declared he would have all the
Corinthians speak in tongues. I
am certain, therefore, that we
might as well follow his advice in
dealing with this present day man-
ifestation. It is to be despised or
forbidden. See I Cor. 14:5, 39.
Why exclude from the fellowship
of any of our churches one who
may be so gifted? There would
be as much excuse for such an act
excluding a member for 'getting
happy' or 'shouting'. 'And forbid
Unimportant The True
not to speak with tongues.
"Let us not forget also the relative unimportance of this gift. It is not to be classed with certain greater gifts any more than other more personal expressions of religious ecstasy. In a catalog of this gift of speaking with tongues the gifts of the Spirit Paul names as the very last. And while he advises not to forbid or despise the exercise of this gift, his further advice is that we strive for and desire carnelyly the greater gifts. His reasons are that 'speaking in tongues' is not of use to the church or the unsaved so much as to the individual, who thereby becomes more acutely conscious of God. Sec. I Cor. 14: 2, 23-26.
Need For Tolerance
"This and similar studies of refigi-us experience convince one of the need of more tolerance as naming barriers. Let us he more tolerant of others, even if they are nontolerant of others. Paul was dealing with similar 'fanatics' and yet it is he whose advice comes to us down the ages: 'Now I would have you all speak with tongues.' 'And forbid not to speak with tongues.'
"At the same time, let us he further advised and 'desire earnestly the greater gifts', the key to which is love. You may speak in tongues, he chirriable, he an apostle, a prophet, have mountain-moving faith, but if lacking in love you and your gifts are nothing You may keep perfectly free of all 'fanaticism' and live your whole life with no shadow of heterodoxy falling upon you, but if you fail in love for all your brothers and sisters in Christ—Methodist, Presbyterian, Episcopal, Pentecostal Baptist, Holiness, whatnot—you have missed something greater than you can imagine."
Bank St. Pastor Back From Vacation
"Christ's Prayer For His Disciples," from John 17:15-21 was the subject of a practical and impressive sermon Sunday morning by the pastor, Rev. C. M. Long, who filled the pulpit having returned from a vacation of three weeks. Rev. Long dwelt on the fact that Christ prayed not that the disciples be taken out of the world in order that the great work of preaching the gospel throughout the world should be accomplished. He stressed the point of the untold value that the world would receive if all the Christian denominations were to unite irrespective of denominational differences in working for the coming of Christ's Kingdom.
The speaker touched upon the amazing breadth of Christ's prayer which had for its scope the redemption of the whole world. The large congregation present listened in rap attention to the discourse delivered by Rev. Long.

HOWARD MINISTERIAL CONVOCATIO N WAS AN EPOCHAL EVENT
Two Hundred Fifty Pastors And Church Officials Devote Three Days To Study Of Christian Ministry.
Washington, D. C., Nov. 20.—The Eighth Annual Convocation of the Howard University School of Religion was held on October 28, 29, and 30. The three days were devoted primarily to a study of the "Christian Ministry." Besides many inspirational addresses of high value, careful consideration was given to three phases of the speakers. These may be stated in general terms as 1st, The Field; 2nd, The Call; and 3rd, The Training of Ministers. These phases were not treated in a formal orderly way, but were constantly coming to the front in all of the discussions.
African Field Discussed
African Field Discussed
The African Feild was presented by an eminent educator, Dr. James H. Dillard, Charlottesville, Va., who is a member of the General Education Board, by a leading scientist, Dr. H. L. Shantz, of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and by a missionary bishop, the Rt. Rev. Matthew W. Clair, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, each of whom has visited Africa. The Home Field was the subject of three remarkable addresses by the Bishop George C. Clement, of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. The practical problems confronting the minister in the rural and urban churches were considered with sympathetic insight and candid criticism, so that all were made to feel that the function of the ministry is the most important, the most challenging and the most rewarding of all. The call to the ministry was a subject much discussed. Great emphasis was placed on the necessity for proper intellectual training as a supplement to consecrated enthusiasm. Zeal and knowledge, rightly harnessed, make a good working team.
Round Table Talks
Great interest was aroused at the Round Table Discussions, conducted by Dr. Robert L. Kelly, of New York, director of the recent survey of the 52 Negro theological seminaries in this country. Dr. Kelly pointed out the weaknesses and the possibilities of these schools.
Convocation Sermon
Conversation Sermon by Rev. W. S. Abernathy, D. D., of the Calvary Baptist Church, pastor of the late President Harding, dwelt in a masterly way with the sayings of Jeroboam, "It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem" and the word of Jesus, "The Son of Man must needs go up to Jerusalem." The easy way of self-interest and the hard way of self-sacrifice were contrasted with apt illustration so to make a powerful appeal for personal loyalty to Jesus Christ. He asserted that the leading men of science are with few exceptions active in the Christian Church.
The splendid addresses given at the University Channel by Col John T. Axton, Chief of Chaphlains of the U. S. Army, by Dr. Wm. Pickens of the N. A. A. C. P., New York and by Bishon Reverdy C. Ransom, of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, were received by the students and members of the Convocation with great enthusiasm.
Convocation Dinner
The Conversation Dinner was a most enjoyable occasion. Dr. William Pickons and President J. Stanley Durkee were at their best. Each amid sparkles of humor and ant stories powerfully set forth the need for a ministry trained to present the old Gospel to modern minds by modern methods.

Attendance Record Set
Three features of the Convocation in general are worthy of notice. First, the attendance was undoubtedly the largest we have ever had. Nearly 250 pastors and church officials registered, beside the general public and our University family. Second, the startling facts brought out by Dr. Kelly awakened deep concern. In face of the evidence that Negro theological seminaries are not meeting the demands made upon them, the convocation drew that the church must devote itself more carnely to the task of training its leaders. Third, an outstanding feature of the Convocation was the spirited discussion which profitably occupied all of the time available. Great vital questions were asked, challenging conditions were presented and perplexing problems were fearlessly faced. Practical not theoretical, sociological rather than theological subjects were uppermost. The prevailing mood of the delegates as the Convocation closed was neither cestacy nor despondency, but that of chastened optimism The Christian Church and its ministry have a great service to render, but the call for deeper conservation and better training is insistent.
DAVID KING BIBLE CLASS
The David King Bible Class met Tuesday night, November 18 at the Community Center with Mr. J. E. Ferece presiding. Much business of importance was transacted.

The V. C. E. Society was well attended. The topic was opened by Mr. J. W. Manuel, who gave us many helpful thoughts. At 7:30 p. m., the pastor preached a historical sermon.

MEN'S CLUB PUTS OVER PROGRAM OF INSPIRATION
Rev. E. H. Hamilton of Hampton Deliveres Masterly Address. Stresses Need of Co-operation.
A good crowd gathered at Grace Church last Monday night for the program of the Men's Club. The program was well rendered as well as interesting, included a violin duet by Miss Lois Robinson and Mr. John Harris; a vocal solo by Miss Helen Lawrence and a quartet selection by Messrs. Carter, Dancy, Baslow and King, Dr. G. H. Francis introduced the speaker of the evening, Rev. E. H. Hamilton, of Hampton, recalling with great pride the part played in the Hampton Community Center drive by Rev. Hamilton. Rev. Hamilton's address was full of helpful suggestions and was very inspiring all the way through. He rejoiced in the fact that the men are awakening to their responsibilities. He expressed the opinion that the indifference of the young to the church could be traced directly to that of their fathers before them. Rev. Hamilton also, stressed cooperation as one of the main factors, if the work of the men was to be a success. There are none you can afford to leave out, he said. That part of the address concerning his club in Hampton was especially helpful. Editor P. B. Young responded to the editor B. and said that, one of the sure ways of success was holding to old fundamentals. After the program in the Church, all retired to the Parish House where hat cocoa and cakes were served. All were
very much pleased at the success of the occasion and went away very much inspired.

Washington, D. C., Nov. 20.—The dedication of National Headquarters, the discussion of the problems of the working woman, and plans for their solution, were the high points that worked the first annual meeting of the National Association of Wage Earners, held in the city of Washington during the past week. The organization, offered by Miss Nannie H. Burrough, D. C., President; Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethume, Florida, Vice President; Miss Minnie L. Bradley, Connecticut, Executive Mrs. Margie L. Wal-
for hundreds of women. The dresses will be sold through mail order.
The social room and offices are on the second floor, which are spacious and show good taste in the selection of furnishings. The practice rooms are on the third floor. They consist of three dining rooms and a kitchen. On the fourth floor of the Wage Earners Headquarters are beautiful emergency dormitories, and a practice bedroom which will be used to teach the chambermaid's course.
Mrs. Bethume Addresses Confer-
Following the dedication, the Association held conferences in the Shiloh Baptist Church, Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, Vice President of the organization, presided at the first day's conference and delivered a thrilling address on "I AM MY SISTER'S KEEPER." At the close of an impassioned appeal for practical co-operation, women sprang to their feet and pledged their support to the whole movement. The enthusiasm ran so high that, at the suggestion to form THE BEST I CAN CLUB, a number of women pledged sums ranging from ten to three hundred dollars. This money will be used to pay for power machines so that the work rooms for manufacturing the model house dress can be opened at once. Among the local women who took part in the conference were Mrs. Julia West Hamilton, recently elected President of the Washington Federation of Clubs; Mrs. M. E. Thompson, Miss Anna Thompson, Mrs. Lula Eaglin, Mrs. Jamie J. Bradford, Mrs. J. C. Taylor, Mrs. M. M. W. McArter, Miss M. M. Kimball.
Annual Address of President
In the annual address of the President, Miss Namie H. Burroughs, plans for the carrying out of the whole program of the organization were outlined, which, in brief, are as follows: (1) open work rooms, (2) educate wage earners through demonstrations, lectures and a pocket educational series, (3) train dormitory managers, (4) start a chain of dormitories for the accommodation of women who do not want to live at their places of employment, (5) solicit articles for the National Exchange Bazaar, (6) open a nation-wide drive for five thousand more members, (7) appoint team leaders and organizers, (8) set up local unions.
The National Headquarters are open and these interested in welfare of working women are asked to join the movement by the payment of one dollar for annual membership.

cursed on the game with a renewed interest.
If cheering will do these things
at a football game, there's no reason
in the world why it shouldn't
work out well in the school class
rooms.
For example: suppose the laboratory lectures become in notonou-
and heavy, what a relief the follow-
ing cheer would be:
"Carbon monoxide!
Sodium cyanide!
Qualitative quantitative!
Boom! Sis! Ah!
Osmosis! Osmosis! Osmosis!"
Then, imagine after you've been
boring "Math" all night and reach
class the next morning no brighter
than you were the night before
and hear this yell come thundering
down the room:
The square of the difference of two numbers,
RAH!
Is the square of the first,
RAH! RAH! RAH!
Minus twice the product of the first and second
RAH!
Plus the square of the second,
RAH! RAH! RAH!
These yells would have a tendency to awaken you and put me tight into your system. Then what would be sweeter to hear in your language class than the following:
Omnia Gallia est divisa patres tres!
Caesar, Caesar is about to take place!
Rickity! Rickity! Boom! Sis! Ah!
Caesar's Caesar's! Gallie War.
Merchants who advertise in this newspaper know what to expect—profitable results, and they are never disappointed.

Chairman Investment Board, has purchased and furnished beautiful headquarters at 1115 Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest. It was the dedication of this building that stimulated unusual interest in the annual meeting.
Dr. Brooks Delivered Dedicatory Sermon
Dr. Walter H. Brooks deliverer the dedicatory address, in which he said, "This effort to give due attention to the improvement of condition to the women who are wage earners, is to be heartily commended, and the leaders, do well to dedicate this temple to human industry and the elevation of women who are too mobile in spirit to cut the bread of idleness"10, women who glory in their competence to sustain themselves and also contribute, in some measure, to the advance of church and state, by the efforts of their industry." Doctor Brooks' dedicatory address was as masterly as it was spiritual its appeal to dignify every class of service by putting into it character, training and spirit.
Mrs. Archibald Hopkins, brought greetings from the white people of the city. The building was thrown open for inspection, and during the entire day, and far into the night, men and women of both races poured into the place to see the dream that had come true.
Committee Served Guests
A committee of women, bended by Mrs. White, demonstrated with great skill and ease how to serve a large crowd quickly and sweetly. It was a practical demonstration of the kind of work that is to be taught in the practice rooms. In the basement power machines will be installed for the manufacture of a model house dress in which women will look good whiffy they work. The organization plans to make the model house dress serve as a source of income as well as an opportunity for employment

Of course, football is not the only college sport that gets the beer, but it comes in for the greatest portion of it and the other games have to make out as best they can.

NEGROES MAKE GREAT RECORD
In 1920 there were in the United States 925,708 farm operators, according to a recent federal census bulletin entitled "Negro Farms and Farm Property." Of these operators, 218,612 owned their farms. 705,070 were tenants, and 2,026 were farm managers. The total acreage involved was 41,432,182, of which 27,928,900 acres were improved. The aggregate value of these farms, land and buildings, was more than two and a quarter billions of dollars. For a race which was practically landless and penniless when it was emancipated sixty years ago, the above showing is truly remarkable. It could have been achieved only by a degree of energy, thrift and sacrifice that is highly commendable. The Negro as a thrifty, self-respecting home owner and producer is a valuable asset to society. For the public welfare, no less that for that of the Negro, the race should be given every opportunity and encouragement to develop in this direction.

The heavy migration of Negroes during the past ten years to the eight or ten Northern and border states where political division is sharp and the final vote doubtful has made Negro votes an important, perhaps a decisive factor in national politics. Figures from the census show the following increase of Negroes over twenty-one years of age in ten pivotal states:

On the basis of a similar group of figures Professor Kelly Miller in the New York Times of August 24th, estimates the influence of the entrance of Negro women into politics. He holds that the added white female vote will distribute itself among the several parties in about the same proportion as the white males distribute themselves but adds that "every added Negro woman voter i sa sheer gain for the Republican column." On the other hand, large numbers of Negro women in Chicago and New York have been active in Democratic organizations in recent municipal campaigns and some of the younger Negro women in New York have joined the La Follette forces.

$38,408 In Paid by W Of The P
Manufacture and Sales Nets Fortune Woman. Business
(Special to the Journal and Guide.)
St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 20.—A Negro woman, who has made a fortune in the manufacture and sale of cosmetic preparations for her race, paid $38,408 Federal income tax for 1923, placing her among the top-matchers in the Eastern Missouri District.
She is Mrs. Annie M. Turnbo Malone, who conducts Poro College at Pendleton and St. Ferdinand Avenues. Poro College is an efficient manufacturer and dispenser of cosmetic preparations, and stands as a monument should one desire to call it that, to the work of Mrs. Malone and her husband, Aaron.
This business represents an investment of $750,000, its founders claim, and, is one of the largest to be developed in the United State by Negroes, and for the patronage of Negro customers.
Has 75.000 Agents
It was begun with Mrs. Malone's preparation for straightening hair, which she devised when living at Lovejoy, HI, in 1900. The college now has more than 75,000 agents scattered over the country. The business has far outgrown its original stock in trade and the Malones insist that they are not manufacturers of a "hair-straightener" but dealers in a complete system of beauty culture. They also make certain medicinal preparations used in connection with chirpody and various baths. Poro College is housed in a modern three-story brick building, with an annex of similar construction. It is not alone a business institution but a community center and an organization which has done a great deal of philanthropic work for the advancement of the Negro.
The Malone employ about 175 persons. They train annually about 1000 agents in the use of their preparations. Poro College has an auditorium, a cafeteria, a bake shop, beauty parlors and hospital facilities—all done in modern style.
Employees in Uniform
The office force works with typewriters, adding machines, dictaphones and a high-powered back-keeping system. Everyone is in uniform except the officers. The place has a cleanliness, a brickness and a courtesy about it which must give the conclusion that here is a

f business moved by ideas up-to-the-minute.
The founders, who are credited by their subordinates with wealth of more than $1,000,000, have given liberally to the Y. M. C. A, here to various churches and Negro societies and to schools. Last May they contributed $25,000 to the down-town Y. M. C. A. Building Fund. Previously they had given $5,000 to the building fund of Pine Street Y. M. C. A. for Negroes. Through the gift of a $10,000 building site and additional thousands of dollars to a building fund, St. Louis now has one of the most complete and modern orphan home for Negro children in America. A gift of $10,000 to the medical department of Howard University, a school for Negroes in Philadelphia and contributions to Tuskegee, Wilberforce University and other schools have been among their philanthropies.
Mrs. Malone, then Miss Turnbo, set up shop in St. Louis 1902 at 2223 Market street. In 1910 the college moved to 3100 Fine street. In 1913, Malone, who was principal of a Negro high school at Quainey IL, but Miss Turnbo and they joined froces. The next move was to the present location, where the building was completed in 1918. By this time the college was turning out face powder, perfumes, cold cream, lotions, hair and scalp oils and other sandries. The Malones advertised in Negro papers exclusively. They conceived the idea of placing a Poro Agent in every Negro Community, training her, and sell her preparations. It worked. Standards of beauty rose until there was widespread demand for the hair and scalp and face treatment.
Disinclined to Talk
Neither Mrs. Malone nor her husband like to talk about themselves for publication.
To a reported who was shown than the building it was explained how the employees are paid on rising scales of wages for terms of service, how they are supplied with hot noonday meals for 15 cents in the company cafeteria, how their laundry is done for them at cost, how assemblies are held in the auditorium every morning, where players are said and noted Negro speakers give talks occasionally, and countless other details.

To follow the directions on the Calumet label is to invite success. You must not use as much as you do of many other kinds. You know Calumet has greater leavening strength than many other brands—it goes farther—makes more bakings—the last openful is as good as the first.

Mighty Leviathans of Rails Manned By Men Of Unusual Ability
Railroad Man's Profession Requires Skill In Great Degree. Efficient Personnel Translate Intelligent Service Into Comfort
Calumet Baking Powder has made all this possible, it is sitting on the pantry shelf in millions of homes, that's the secret of baking success-the real reason for uniform and wholesome food.
Chicago, Ill., Nov. 21—(A. N. P.)—Modern railroad transportation with its refinement and luxuries is linked up in definite degree to our group. On every major road today are to be bit found veri-road today are to be found veri-a part of the equipment as the heaving, panishing engine itself are the efficient colored attendants who ever at elbow translate intelligent service into comfort.
It's a thrill worth experiencing to stand and watch one of these mighty leviathans of the rails, like the Capitol Limited on the B. & O. for example, steam into a station on its way to Washington. As she shows to a stop, her twelve to fourteen cars winding out behind, a dozen blue uniformed figures step smartly on with the Pullman and Train conductors as advance guards. Passengers discharged and loaded with dispatch, hasty goodbyes, "all aboard," a wave of the hand, twelve blue figures swing up the steps and she's speckling on again.
The average passenger accustomed to having travel made pleasurable does not stop to think of the painstaking service rendered by the hundreds of men who contribute to his safety and comfort in handling a train like the Capitol from Chicago to New York. Few professions require skill and training in greater degree than the railroad men's. On the Capitol besides the conductor, engineer, Pullman conductor, brakeman, flagman, baggageman, and secretary, are twenty-seven colored employees. There are twelve Pullman men, a valet, and barber, and a maid and fifteen men in the dining crew. To see a real meal prepared is a fair example of the entire efficiency of the service. The tiny, yet voluminous kitchen, and storeroom which issues forth hundreds of orders, the hundreds of articles all pressed into compact space.
In crew number one under J. S. Warde were: (waiters) Louis Patterson, George Anderson, Henry T. Mitchell, Henry R. Hicks, William Barnes, A. Green, A. Franklin, George Wright, J. H. Butler, (chefs) Robt. Barksdale, Harry Watkins, Edward Bowman, David Myers, William Dill, Milton Johnson.
They work as smoothly and effectively as a fine piece of machinery, grinding out orders of the seasons' delicacies, served with the grace and deftness of a banquet table.
Then there is the club car, the observation lounge, the latest Pullman of every description.
Well, may we join Passenger Agent Brown in taking pride in the Capitol as we note the opportunity which it affords "our boys" and the manner in which they are making good.

PROSPEROUS RACE MAN KILLED
PROSPEROUS RACE MAN KILLED
Lake City, Fla., Nov. 20—(P.
N. S.—Four young white men
were lodged in jail Friday charged
with being members of a gang of
masked men, alleged to have killed
W. L. Shaw, wealthy Negro
Lumberman, and to have beaten in
insensibility Priest Williams,
Negro hotel proprietor and a large
land owner in this section.
The colored men, according to
the police, were asked to leave
town because of their participation
in hauling and carriage contracts.
When they failed to heed
the warnings, the visit of masked
ship in automobiles resulted. It is claimed these men, far up their superior business ability have been able to embark white competitors in various business ventures in this section and this fact has caused considerable hard feelings on the part of shifftails whites here. The four men under arrest are: Steve Duke, proprietor of Duke's Delivery and Transfer Company; Norman Ives, Jr. Proprietor of the Ives Heavy Hauling Company; Cody Witt, a gas-dolin selman; and B. F. Eatman, a lumber man. County officials say that other arrests are expected, as every effort will be put forth to bring the members of the gang to the bar of justice.

I got home one knight bout twenty-five minutes to morning an I fines the kid wide-awake, naturally I wants to know what that kid's doing awake that time a knight. Well, I asks 'im an he sez, "I ask mamma to tell me a bed-time story an she to me' to wait 'till you can am I couldst listen to the one you tells her."—Hot Digerty Dog.
I got a little boy—well, well well, didn't you all know that? Well, I getta one anyways. We gives the little bat a bath every Saturday night. Well, one of these days after Saturday night, wich is known as Sunday, we haves a fuss with him bawling his face. I asks him his objections an he ses, didn't I wash my face last night. Well, you couldst have knocked me down with a feather, an this is saying a whole let too cause when I was in the fight game. I was the champen canvass kisser.

LIVESTOCK PICTURES FOR
CLASSROOMS
Believing in the educational value of good pictures of livestock, the United States Department of Agriculture is distributing a series of 10 pictures prepared especially for school use. Specialists in the Bureau of Animal Industry report that this series has met with an unusual demand. Pupils who are familiar with types of improved livestock, as shown in the pictures naturally attempt to bring about improvement of the farm animals on their home farms. Moreover, instructors find the pictures useful in improving the appearance of the classrooms.
The dual purpose which such educational material fills is illustrated by a recent request from the agricultural department of a Maine high school.

Lipstick Proves Fatal To Girl Of Fourteen
Strause, X. Y. Nov. 21. — N. X. P.—Georgia Knickerbocker, 14, died here this week from the effects of a lipstick applied to a pimple in order to hide it. The poison in the stick entered then the sore and spread thus her system.
All Admire Her Lovely Hair
Few people who meet this beautiful girl know how she obtained the gloriously lovely hair that now makes her admired by all who see her.
She says it was Exelento Quinine Pomade that put her scalp of all dandruff and made her hair grow long, silky soft, and bountiful. It made her hair fairly glow with life and she gave it a pretty glossy sheen.
She was so delighted with Exelento Quinine Pomade, she tried Exelento Skin Beautifiers for low complexions and skin blemishes. She hated this pampering routine a short time when her friends began complimenting her on her clear skin and improving her appearance.
Anyone who wants lovely hair and a beautiful complexion should immediately purchase Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Blemish. They can be contained at $55 each from nearly all drug stores, or will be sent postpaid upon receipt of price by the EXELENTO MEDICINE CO., Atlanta, Ga.

Citizens of Norfolk are urged to pay their poll tax during this month. An important election is to be held next year and the poll tax must be paid six montns prior in order to qualify one to vote.
Rev. Askew, the original colored Davis-Bryan man declares in a printed statement that he "is through with politics forever." He seems to take defeat much harder than Messrs. Davis and Bryan.
Adam and Eve have been hibernating in the forests near Norfolk during the past week. The next step in that direction will doubtless be a Cain and Abel drama with the historical tragic consequences.
The Passing of Senator Lodge
Henry Cabot Lodge was the most admired and the most hated man in the Senate. He came of the most aristocratic family in America, the Cabots, who were famous long before Vanderbilt and Astors were board of. He was born to great wealth, yet he worked three times as hard as most men who have to work for a living. He won renown as a historian and a biographer of American statesmen; he taught Theodore Roosevelt at Harvard. With such a background of prestige and learning he was the best-equipped man that had ever entered the Senate, and he gained an authority that steadily increased for thirty-one years
He was easily the equal of the parliamentarians of Europe, and in the year of 1919 they had good cause to know it. Playing upon President Wilson's idealism and the sympathies of the American people, they had prepared a clever scheme by which America was to take the sins of the world upon her shoulders. The clear vision of Henry Cabot Lodge immediately pierced the blind, and he organized the forces to defeat it. In spite of a ceaseless stream of abuse and cadmium he held fast to the principle of complete American independence.
The United States Senate will not have many more men like Henry Cabot Lodge. The direct primary system is sending inferior men to the Senate, men without solid grounding in American traditions, without training men who catch the votes of the mob by shirt, sleeve and overall campaigns, and spitting tobacco juice on the platform.
Ships That Sail Not
To the number of ships that have failed to lift anchor when sailing time came after having been scheduled to sail from America to some foreign port with Afro-American passengers as immigrants or tourists may now be added the United American liner "M. Clay", which was scheduled to sail from New York January 15, next on an "interracial" cruise through the Middle Atlantic and the Carribean Sea. The Alladin Cruise Corporation, or Cleveland, sponsors of the enterprise have written ten the JOURNAL AND GUIDE that "owing to insufficient response, the plans for a West Indies cruise," * * have been postponed for one year, during which time certain changes will be made in plan and auspices."
This postponement recalls the numerous attempts of Mr. Marcus Garvey to launch a fleet of ships, resulting in the total collapse of his Black Star line; and the celebrated African voyage which was to have been made a few years ago under the direction of Dr. R. R. Wright, Dr. L. G. Jordan and others of Philadelphia, and which was not.
We suspect that a large contributing factor to the failure of the West Indies cruise was the nature of its advertising. Much emphasis was placed upon the "inter-racial" aspects of the cruise by the promoters, who happened this time to be white persons. However, sincere their intentions may have been the outcome proves that there are no aspirations on the part of Afro-Americans to mix socially with the opposite race for the mere sake of sociality. There are not enough Afro-Americans in America so inclined to contribute much to a full passenger list on any seaworthy vessel.
Editorial Page of
Our Charity Agencies and the Community Chest Fund
It is unfortunate that some misunderstandings arose at the eleventh hour to surround the entrance of the colored welfare and charity agencies' participating in the Community Fund drive with difficulties. Whether these difficulties will interfere with the success of the colored end of the drive the JOURNAL AND GUIDE does not know, and shares with many others the hope that they will not. If they do serve to reduce the success of the campaign the loss will be fully compensated by an ultimate gain in understanding of the just and proper way of approaching and dealing with the peculiar local problems of colored citizens.
It has been made to appear by persons determined to deal with these problems in an arbitrary and unwise manner, that the JOURNAL AND GUIDE, by disclosing upon the eve of the drive certain facts regarding the elimination of United Charities Colored, and the inclusion of Community Center for the major portion of the colored budget, without the knowledge of executives of the former agency until just a few days before the drive was to begin, and without the knowledge of members of the board and the properly elected chairman of the executive committee of the latter agency until the budget was published in the morning paper, was actuated by a desire to retard the success of the drive.
Nothing has been further from our purpose. The JOURNAL AND GUIDE is not opposed to the Community Chest Fund but to the contrary is heartily in sympathy with its aims and objects. But the JOURNAL AND GUIDE like any honest newspaper owes a duty to the public which it cannot escape if it would, and that duty is to mould sound public sentiment against unsound projects, when, after careful investigation it is convinced that such projects are inimical to public welfare. There is nothing about Community Chest Fund itself that is inimical to the public welfare, but it unfortunately permitted itself to be misguided into putting its powerful influence behind a discredited and defunct community service organization, which for the past twelve months has been saturated with petty politics in its efforts to get the fingers of its self perpetuating executives into the city treasury and into the treasury of the Community Chest Fund. It is equally apparent—even admittedly so—that Community Chest Fund was misled and misinformed with regard to the organization and worth of United Charities, Colored, resulting in that organization having to go independently to the public in future for funds to carry on its work, or dissolve.
So the JOURNAL AND GUIDE is not responsible for the making of the circumstances which brought about the misunderstanding and the difficulties. The JOURNAL AND GUIDE merely disclosed them in the course of what it conceived to be its duty to the public.
The Solid South
The solid South may break its own political solidarity before many more elections pass if one is to accept as an index the conclusions reached by the Roanoke World-News, which we are printing this week on this page in our "Spirit of the Press" column. A similar reaction was voiced by the Charleston News and Courier immediately after the election, except that the Charleston paper was more despondent over the isolation of the South in the politics of the nation.
What is the cause of it all? Leading editors of the South will say that it is due to the unique attitude of the South upon the tariff and other economic questions and states rights. All of which is dignified and tactful evasion of the real issue, which is the Negro. In the matter of states rights the South is variable. It is receptive to a federal prohibition amendment. It was suspicious of the woman's suffrage amendment and it has been, and is still in a very large measure, defiant of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments.
As soon as the South makes up its mind to divest itself of the bugaboo of Negro domination, which is a bugaboo in a very real sense, the section will begin to exert its rightful influence in national governmental affairs, and it will not be possible to set down in the column of one political party the electoral votes of practically all of the Southern states months before an election.
But before the South can divest itself of the Negro domination bugaboo it will have to repudiate the type of political leaders who gain office by capitalizing the race question.
Mr. John W. Davis was one of the most brilliant and most able candidates the Democrats have ever offered the country. He was overwhelmingly defeated, carrying only the twelve states of the solid South and accentuating the political isolation of the section. The South would have voted just as solidly for McAdoo, Smith, Bryan, Underwood, Hoke Smith or Heilin. Not so much because the South wanted either of them but because it would have felt duty bound to uphold what it conceives to be Southern traditions.
A few days before the election Mr. Davis made a speech before a Negro audience in the
North in which he declared in favor of "equal opportunity for all regardless of race, creed or color." The next day, with characteristic promptness and emphasis such papers as the Charleston News and Courier, Columbia State, Atlanta Georgian and Macon Telegraph were publishing statements apologizing for Mr. Davis remarks and assuring the country that he did not have reference to political equality for Negroes and that he was a Southern man and stood for Southern traditions.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS IN NEGRO HISTORY

en emphasize the social position more than the men and make the coming together of the race increasingly difficult, we realize not only in India but in the Southern states.) And last there is the oriental setting, giving us easily and pleasantly an intimate view of an ancient land.
In spite of all of this thousands of Negroes throughout the country and a large number of them in the South voted the Democratic ticket. The time has passed when a Negro vote is synonymous with a Republican vote. If the Democratic party in the South ever yields to the two-party system in politics there will be as many Negroes in the Democratic ranks as there will be in the Republican. Whether the South wishes to or not, if it expects to lose its political nonentity and wield the same influence in National affairs as the Northern and Western Democrats wield it will have to renounce its present political oligarchy and practice democracy as well as preach it.
Forward Stride In Education
The action of educational leaders in North Carolina, in passing a resolution urging the State Board of Education and the General Assembly to create a standard four-year college to be maintained by the State is significant and far-reaching. Carrying with it the weight of endorsement of State Superintendent of Education, A. T. Allen and Prof. N. C. Newbold, division director of Negro education the resolution at once assumes more than ordinary importance and is given a stimulus far beyond anything sustained by a merely formal request. The Negroes of North Carolina received a high compliment from Director Newbold, who said:
"The Negro people of North Carolina are exceptional. They have advanced beyond the Negroes of other cities in character, standards of living and education, and are now prepared to meet the same educational requirements as their white neighbors. North Carolina has faith in its Negro people. It spends millions for their education, and it believes there should be one standard for teachers, not two."
That is the most revolutionary and progressive utterance on the race question that ever came from a Southern white man, "North Carolina has faith in its Negro people!" When all Southern States reach the place where they will have faith in the Negro people, we will have reached a common ground upon which all the intricate problems flowing from the living together of two races may be settled or adjusted with justice to both. Education is the chief solution.

The South In Politics
From the Roanoke World-News.
The World-News feels that the present political situation in the South is unwhole some, both from the viewpoint of the South and also from the viewpoint of the whole nation. It is a deplorable situation when so-called "intelligent Southerners" write of praying for Coolidge and voting for Davis. This newspaper has no patience with those Southerners who vote in any such fashion. If those people believe in Coolidge they ought to vote for Coolidge. There are plenty of sound present-day reasons in this newspaper's viewpoint, for the South's continuing to go Democratic, reasons based on our belief here in the South in states' rights and individual liberty. But if we are going to continue to be Democratic, as seems likely to be the case for some time, let us vote for the Democratic party on the basis of present-day party principles and not on the basis of bitter prejudices. And if those Southerners who prefer the Republican party on present-day principles will only voice their preference, instead of continuing to vote their traditions, they will be doing the South a real service in bringing on an intelligent political realignment here.
Everywhere in life the true question is not what we must but what we do.—Carlyle.

Q. Will you please give me some data concerning the late Col. Chas. Young? A. T. E. K. C. Kansas.
were sunk in the deepest so mental crudeness until their sades brought them into co with the dark races of Mo
A. Col. Charles Young was born in Kentucky in 1868. Educated in the public schools of Ohio. Appointed to West Point 1885. Upon graduation assigned to Ninth and Tenth Cavalry. Was first lieutenant in Seventh Cavalry (white) for ten months during 1897. Major during the Spanish American War. Sent to Haiti 1904, later to the Philippines with 25th Infantry, 1912 made Major and military attach to Liberia. Later made colonel and placed in charge of Liberian Constabulary. Died at Lagos, Nigeria, January 7, 1922.
Q. I have been reading in the Chicago Daily News of the discoveries being made on site of the ancient city of Kish and the articles state that the Sumerians, who founded it, were non-Semitic. Who were they? G. F. I. Chicago.
A. Kish is a deviation from the name "Cush," the son of Ham, who was the actual or legendary founder of cities of Mesopotamia. The terms Sumerian, Arecadian, Elamite, etc., are various national names given to different branches of the ancient Negro races that inhabited these regions and built the first civilizations. For various reasons, American exploration parties dislike to mention the fact that the peoples of Mesopotamia were of African descent, preferring other terms which will not impart this information, unless the reader is familiar with them.
A. If you will read Draper's Intellectual Development of Europe, you will discover that the Moors and their Mohammedan confreres were wholly responsible for the Renaissance and development of civilization in Europe. The Nordics of Europe
"A Passage to India"
There is not a word regarding the Negro in this best seller, and yet it does more to clarify the situation of the Negro in the United States than any dozen treatises written about him. For this story of the English in India and their relation to the Mohammedans and Hindus over whom they rule is brother to the disfranchised Negro here. One reads it and sees on page after page the conditions, physical and psychological, of America. Not that we have any one spot corresponding to the city of Chandrapore, in which Mr. Forster's novel moves, but we can conceive a city, compounded of Southern caste and Northern efficiency, that would correspond exactly. Into such a place sound the alarm of an attack upon a white girl by a colored man and you can forrest tell what will happen. Among the English who gather at the club to consider the matter of the alleged attack, is one Fielding who remains calm. "The Collector looked at him sternly because he was keeping his head. He had not gone mad at the phrase 'an English girl fresh from England,' he had not rallied to the banner of race. He was still after facts though the herd had decided on emotion. Nothing enrages Anglo-India in more than the bantern of reason if it is exhibited for one moment after its extinction is decreed. All over Chandrapore that day the Europeans were putting aside their normal personalities and sinking themselves in their community. Pity, wrath, heroism, filled them, but the power of putting two an two together was annihilated."
And again in relation to the alleged assault. "They had started speaking of 'women and children'—that phrase that exempts the male from sanity when it has been repeated a few times." The story of the alleged assault and of the trial is the one dramatic theme in the book, but apart from the interest in the

were sunk in the deepest sort of mental crudeness until their crusades brought them into contact with the dark races of Mohammedanism.
Q. Where is the Valley of the Kings in which the tomb of King Tut was discovered? Q. E. D. Los Angeles, Calif.
A. The Valley of the Kings is just south of Luxor in Upper Egypt. The entire district has been properly called Thebes, but different parts of the center were called by various names. On the eastern bank of the Nile, was Thebes proper with its wonderful temple of El Karnac and just south was Luxor with its temples and monuments almost as wonderful. On the west bank the Necropolis, or the City of the Dead.
Q. Can you supply me with the quotation from Volney's Ruins of Empires, mentioning the 'black races and what they contributed to civilization? W. W. W. Brooklyn, N. Y.
A. The quotation you ask for is as follows: "There a people, now forgotten, discovered while others were yet barbarians, the elements of the arts and sciences. A race of men ejected from society for their skilable and frizzled hair founded, on the study of the laws of Nature, those civil and religious systems which still govern the universe. Q. Was Hannibal black? A. Hannibal was a Carthaginian and a Negro. Carthage was situated on the northern shore of Africa and nearby to the Tunis of today. It was founded by Dido, a Phoenician prince. Hannibal has been accounted as one of the greatest, in fact the greatest of all military strategists.
Q. Was Hector, the Trojan hero of the Illiad, of our race? G. L. F., Muskogee, Okla.
A. All the principals of the Illiad were of African descent. Hector was the son of Priam, king of Troy. Priam was blood brother of Tithonus, king of Ethiopia.
