Conflicting statements by the daily papers were to the effect that Mrs. Jordan's clothing caught fire from the cookstove, and that, she dropped a lighted match in her lap, but Mr. John Smith, nephew of the dead woman stated to a representative of this paper that fire was in the house. He stated that, he was the first of the relatives to arrive upon the scene and examined both stoves which showed no sign of having fire made in them prior to the unfortunate mishap. He said that, he questioned the fireman and they could not give him any definite origin of the fire. Mr. Smith also said but the incident looked unhealthy to him and he could not give any cause of the fire.
Since it was said, that there was no one at home, but Mrs. Jordan at the time no one can give any direct cause of the fire that resulted in her death. From what could be learned, neighbors did not discover Mrs. Jordan's previous predicament until she ran into the yard where the wind intensified the themes. From indications, people who occupied the patios were too frightened to enter her any immediate aid, even seeing the woman alive.

M. Antoine Rigal, Past Grand Master Of Island of Haiti, Tendered Farewell Reception By Grand Lodge.
80 HAITIAN LODGES
HAVE 30,000 MEMBERS
New York, N. Y., Nov. 21—(A. N. P.) A. Manteine Antoine, a part grandmaster of the island of Haiti, left for his home at Port au Prince Saturday. Before leaving he was tendered a farewell reception by the Grand Lodge of Prince Hall Masons. Grandmaster David W. Parker acted as mostmaster.
"Haiti wants the moral support of the American Masons, we require no financial help but want your assistance in breaking the burdensome political yoke that your politicians have placed upon our shoulders," said Rival, who speaks for 80 lodges of Haitian Masons with a total membership of 30,000. M. Rigel who is an attorney was accompanied to the U. S. A. by his wife and daughter. He has an excellent command of the English language, and is very familiar with both the written and unwritten history of America as it applies to the Negro. He is a man of small stature, very dignified in manner and a most pleasing ambassador to meet.
While in the United States, he conducted certain negotiations that will accomplish much toward the elimination of certain promoters of clandestine Masonry who have been purporting to be operating under the authority of the Grand Lodge of Haiti. This is probably one of the greatest accomplishments of his trip, and it will do much toward the clearing up of some obscure phases of fraternal matters in this country.
Prof. Graves Gives Talk On Negro Music
Columbus, O., Nov. 21—(P. N. S.)—Negro song is folk song-native, spontaneous. There is no true American folk song or legend which makes the Negro music all the more interesting, said Professor William L. Graves in his lecture on "Negro Music," Wednesday afternoon before the Women's club of the United Commercial Travelers, in the U. C. T. clubhouse. "The Negro songs are the natural expression of feeling on the part of those who were originally slaves," the speaker said. "All the songs are religious in nature. They are built on a scale different from the common scale, which accounts for the curious harmonies. Many melodies like "Deep River" have become popular in various arrangements." he said. Mr. Graves also gave an interesting account of a vacation spent on a South Carolina plantation.

RECEIVERSHIP IS ENDED;THE ORDER WILL CELEBRATE
General Thanksgiving To Be Observed In January. Officers And Members Elated Over Victory.
NOW RECOGNIZED BY
SUPREME GRAND LODGE
Grand Keeper of Records and Seal
After two years in the hands of Receivers the Grand Lodge of Virginia was turned into the hands of its officers, Thursday, November 20th. The members of the order and officers who have been patiently working and waiting to celebrate this great victory are elated and a special Thanksgiving Celebration is being planned throughout jurisdiction to be held on the 2nd Sunday in January, 1925, when all Sir Knights will meet and fittingly celebrate and give thanks to God for His guidance during their crisis. The great fight to restore the order to its former standard was begun eighteen months ago at Petersburg, by the Tidewater delegation, who selected for their Chieftain the late Wm. M. Reid of Portsmouth, who led the forces on victoriously until his death. The falling of the Pythian hero, though deeply regretted, did not dampen the ardor and enthusiasm of the followers. In fact it gave an added impetus, in that it made them more determined to bring to a successful end the great work which he had begun. The loyal officers were never worried in their efforts, but worked entirely for the advancement of the cause, encouraging the weak, stimulating those who were faintharried, and even bringing back to the fold many who had fallen by the wayside. Our greatest ambition was realized when the grand old order was restored to its proper officers, and again affiliated with the Supreme lodge, of N. A., S. A. E. A. A. & A.
The Grand Chancellor, Sir W. B. F. Crowell since his elevation has worked unselfishly to help bring to pass this victory, and with the assistance of the Grand Vice Chancellor, Sir F. E. Purgeur, Grand Keeper of Record and Seat, Sir Eugene West, Grand Attorney, Sir W. H. C. Brown, and others, the dream of the Knights came true. "Onward and Upward" is their slogan.

Rich Young Man Marries Daughter of Taxi Driver Who Is Accused of Having Mixed Blood In His Veins.
New York, N. Y., Nov. 21—(A. N. P.)—No direr suggestion could have been made in the somewhat startling circumstances of the marriage of Miss Alice Beatrice Jones to Leonard Kip Rhinchander, a member of one of the this state's oldest "old" families than that the father of the young bride had Negro blood in his veins, according to the gossip that has been going the rounds since news of the secret marriage became public.
It was enough that the rich young man should have married the daughter of a taxicab driver, even though she is beautiful. But when it was learned that the girl's sister had married a butler, a Negro butler, and that her father's people lived in the West Indies and that he might have Negro blood in his veins, it was just too terrible for anything. The young woman had certified to the Westchester county clerk that she was white.
"There is not a drop of Negro blood in our veins," she declared when questioned. This is terrible "We're happy, and we're going to be happy."
The School of Education of Boston University plans to conduct a State-wide language contest this year by means of standardized tests. Last Spring a similar contest was held in spelling.

Second Annual Savings And Home Getting Campaign Starts Nov. 24. Fine Way To Invest Ones Savings.
Monday, November 24 the Norfolk Home Building and Loan Association, Inc., will launch its Second Annual Drive for new members. Last year the first of these annual drives was inaugurated and met with marked success. At this time of the year numbers of people are receiving their Christmas Savings checks and are looking for profitable ways to invest them, for the day is past when it was considered necessary to blow in all of the Christmas money on the pursuit of pleasure. What better way could one find to invest than in a Home Building Savings, or if the home is already being brought in a savings account in a reputable Building and Loan Association that pays a good rate of interest. It is one of the best methods of systematic saving that is desired.
The Norfolk Home Building and Loan Association, Inc., is offering solicitors valuable cash prizes as an added impetus of arising interest in the campaign. The solicitors are highly enthusiastic and are out to beat last years record when 1100 new shares were sold. Nineteen years of successful business experience and activity stand to the credit of this Association which is officered by men of high standing in the community. The campaign committee follows: C.J. Watkins, Walter Smith, Mary E. Nelson, Samuel L. Tucker, President; C.C. Dogan, Secretary.

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 Dubu 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. DuPont to Negro schools with the result that every building in the State is modern and up-to-date and completely furnished.
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 technical will be the unveiling of portrait of Mr. DuPont by Rar-Harleston. Where home is Weston, S. C., is regarded including portrait paint or crayon.

SOLDIER CELEBRATIONS
Memphis, Tenn., Nov. 20.—(A.
N. P.)—It was necessary to hold
two parades here Armistice day
for the boys who united six years
ago against a common enemy in
France. There was one parade for
white soldiers on Main street and
another for colored soldiers on
Beale avenue.
The sidewalks were lined with
pectators to view math proce-
sions, many of the leading whites
of the city doing the Negro veterans the favor of coming over on Beale street to watch them strut
hair stuff. The colore dboys walked up Beale street just like they waved it and the white spectators did not seem to mind.
Many colored business organizations and military units united to make the parade a success. The once-winning float was put in line by the Fraternal Savings Bank, other bright floats were entered by the Potter school and the Madamno Arts Club. The Postman's and Pullman Potter's Band provided excellent music for the occasion.

TAXI CAB COMPANIES FLOOD CHICAGO
Twenty-Seven Companies Operating In One City Cut Down Profits Materially For All.
Chicago, Ill., Nov. 21—(A. N.
P.) A little over a year ago there
appeared on the streets of Chicago
a fleet of modern taxiicabs bearing
an interesting company's name.
They "took" right away. The drivers,
many of the group, looked well
in their uniforms, and they were
courteous. It was an innovation
one of the officials stated that al-
so $250,000 worth of business
was done in the first quarter.
Chicago had bad taxiicabs, but
the regular cabs were not owned
by colored people, and the taxi
service given to the public was
deprived in all sorts of rolling
stock from fliers to limousines,
vintages of "1492" on upwards
usually not very far upward. The
cabs clogged were usually any
name. Below highway robbery,
that comes from the driver's mind,
because he has clever ability to
size up cars.
Twenty-five Companies
A few in the city for the advent
of the new year, company, there ap-
peared another company, and
gathered, and more, until today
there are twenty-seven colored
impediments in Chicago, having mod-
ifications from one to one hundred
in miles.
An official of one of the older companies recently stated that the overheard啸叫 is due to a change of tactics by the manufacturers, was stated that one of the first companies organized experience difficult in getting consideration from the manufacturers, and when all conditions were promptly met, the manufacturers finally added. Then, in after months when it was seen that the venture was successful, a "company" could start with a "wish and a promise." Now, some of the larger investors are wondering whether there is an effort on to "food the business" so that no one can make a profit. There has been considerable discussion of consolidating one of the larger companies Washington, D. C, has modern cab services, and there is an effort to encourage the establishment of modern companies in all the large companies 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 hands full in China."

Columbia, S. C., Nov. 21 - (A. N.
7.2) - Ruben Robinson, 17, con-
flicted 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 th egovener 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
net 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 Leoch 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 Goal, 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 chopping 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 reseners 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.

BOOKERS BRING BACK THE BACON AND GREASE TOO
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 looped up in some
stages, in others, flashy, interesting,
replete with thrills, splits are
all the rest that goes in the making,
the fighting Booker hambles
Huntington high school eleven
to the merry tune of 12-7 last Friday
at Reid Park, Newport News.
At the beginning of the struggle the Huntingtonians were clearly out classed, but tightened up in the third period and showed some fight. In spite of that slight rally, Wilson's Bookers took the going away and the backs ran wild about all will. The Bookers of Washington squad was at least three touchdowns stronger than the Newport News downs, but he bristled in the game when he was occupied by Coble of Washington failing to cover his pass which Stevenson of Huntington intercepted on his opponents 12-yard line and fielded 87 yards down a clear field to 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. These Williams of the fighting Bookers came in for this hit of glory, when Huntington painted on the first down and Williams carefully pressing the pigskin printed down the field midst a wild army of Newport News tacklers, subzipping twisting, cunning, out running until he finally squirmed over the goal line completing his 12-yard run breaking the 7.7 tie and clinching the game for his squad.
Resort To Racking Game
The Bookkeepers received a kicking game with Lloyd Williams and John Williams. Leaving up this phase of the battle and sending some nice pants down the field placing Washington out of danger, Huntington also got wise to the advantage of kicking early and Sedgwick did the dirty work for his team. By change of goal, Huntington's punter had a slight edge over the two Williams, kicking with the wind. The game, at this stage, became a kicking duel both squads playing safe and offending on the break, but merely means of painting no such thing happened.
Booker Washington and Huntington started overland work with the Huntingtonian having the advantage in this department. Bookers only complete prosecution when Johnson, passing instead of Gold shot one to 4. William took 12 yards. Sedgewick and Stewart of Huntington completed one for 10 yards and one for two minutes another for five yards, was not plotted. Johnson, the new find who stepped into the firefield in the game with the Catholics was shot up with the regulars and hammed himself well, hitting Huntington line consistently for grains and attempted two field goals that failed by taking too much time to kick. Huntington Threatens Again
Huntington, fighting with no avail trying hard to stem the tide of defeat that weighed heavy on its shoulders, seriously threatened to tally again near the end of the final stanza, when after an exchange of pains, Headers were pushed far down into their territory. The ball was pinned on the first down and Huntington did the same thing. Washington timbs and the Shipbuilders received of their opponents 10-yard line and started off line bobbing, bobbing started off like a shot out of a cannon, but fate intervened and time ended the gridiron goodest with the ball on the 9-yard line.
Touchdowns: 1. Williams, 3.
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 Washington gained 255 yards to Huntington's 222.

Swanson's Greatest
GREAT FILM STAR IS CAPTIVATING IN HER LATEST PICTURE
Gloria Swanson has come it again! In her new Paramount picture "Machamandled," which is coming Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week to the Attucks Theatre, she has put another sweeping performance on top of her three later, "Zaza," "The Humming Bird" and "A Society Second."
"Masharallied" deals with the problems of life in New York as the shop girl finds them, and Miss Swan on in the role of Tessie McLean, runs the whole gamut of motions, trying the white lights of Broadway, taking a whirl at being a culprit's model, spending some time posing in a midst hop all for the love of the Clothes and a so-called good time. But she learns in the end that the honest love of Johnny Hogan, a hard working auto mechanic, is far better than the temporary jacqueline showed upon her by sculptors, department store owners, modifiers and cigarette manufacturers.
Once more our glorious Gloria preyed that she can do more than just wear clothes well. Not only does she display the flashing dramatic ability that she possessed and delight of her numbers in her previous productions, but by "Manmanda" she idle some out as a comedienne of the first rank. One of the especially clever bits of comedy imitation she does in the picture is an imposition of a glamorous countenance. She puts a charismatic touch to the scene that unobviously adds new bursts to her screen interruptions.
Our hall is off to Alban Dwain who has given the picture a detailed morning. The master hands of this director is evidenced in the excellent judgment he used in picking a proper supporting cast. Tom Myer, who will be remembered for his perseveral performance in "Big Buster," is even more humane and more considerate as the mechanic with whom Gloria finally finds happiness. Others in this spectacular include Ann Pennington, and Brooke Johns, the former famous Zionfield story, Kim Keoh, Frank Morgan, Paul Mellister, Frank Alwery, Lilyan Tchumann, Arthur Hooman and Carrie Scott.
Whether you read the story of "Manhadded" by Arthur Stringer or not, it was running serially in The Saturday Evening Post which the producer was adapted by Frank Tuttle. Go see the picture. There's a treat in one for you.

Nocom High School of Portsmouth and Armstrong High of Richmond battled to a 6-6 tie. The first quarter, both teamplayed dashy football. The second quarter, Armstrong scored by a block kick. In the third quarter Williams completed a pass on the two yard line and Adams took the ball over, lying the score
MOREHOUSE DOWNS
TALLADEGA 14-6
Coach Harvey's Maroon Tiger, playing a broad of football that was a delight to the eye, to a clemency over the much touched Talladega devon. The Morlocks' offence, coupled with the charging line, played home with Talladega's football hoop. Talladega's great point came in the first quarter when she blocked a Morlocks hoop and carried the ball to her own five yard line. Here the Morlocks home line stuffed. Morlocks was able to get out of this tight play by completing a 12-yard pass to Alen. In the second quarter 15 yards was taken away from Morlocks on a penalty kick, on returning a kick Talladega's man finished and Morlocks covered the ball on Talladega's trajectory line. Morlocks now started by march down the field for the first downback. A forward pass from Stuart added 22 yard blocker hit over inside for five yards. Archer for more nine and Chan on the next play placed the ball on the over yard line. He was given the ball to carry over. Ruger hit back to pal.
St. Paul draws a win
Nathaniel, N. Nov. 10, St. Augustine's school playing desperation on our own field upsets the dope today when she held St. Paul's "wonder team" to two touchdowns and a field goal. The dropback from the 25-yard line by Walker in the first quarter was the only score of the first half, the plucky St. Aug. logs forcing St. Paul a punt repeatedly.
St. Paul made 12 first downs and St. Aug. 5. St. Paul completed 1 passes and intercepted one. St. Aug. completed 2 and intercepted 2. The tackling on both sides was good and the lines were almost even in bounds. Walker, St. Paul's team of 14 back played his usual good game was unable to get away for many long runs. L. William was also a consistent gainer for
12. while Willett with two
pools of jams was St. Augs's out-

Vugte team showed speed when
he arrived at the ball, and Burton

WARD A.C. FORCED TO A SHOW DOWN BY LOCAL CLUB
Line Driving Attack Baffles Marylanders and Norfolk A. C. Played Them To a 6-6 Deadlock.
BY WILLEY A. JOHNSON
With a wrist and piercing wind
swirling every peek and cramp at
League Park Monday, the much
wanted Mets, the Nets, the Club of
Washington, Md. a team said to have
the pioneer of a Boston bup) pup
and the Norfolk Athletic Club
crack head aggregation battled to
6:33 deadlock before a mere hand
full of fans.
At the beginning of the game, the going looked to be very tough for the Norfolk team, because Ward got away with a dying start, after the backs were forced to punt one of dugging and the visitors taking the ball to 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 tucked the ball pungly away. Norfolk A. C lost its chance to score by incomplete another pass behind the opponents goal. Ward took the pigskin on the 20-yard line and on the first play, Savoy, who had sulted for Johnson, left half, executed a run for 80-yards and Ward's tally. The game saw cawed for a while with Ward having the edge and Savoy proving a real moment, 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 buffled 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. Gray, rising to the height of his game and standing out in hold relief carried the oval 15-yard placing in it easy striking 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 backfield with "Fat" Thornton 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 ver

C. played well as well the defense with its back against the well 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 seeing again. Savoy, Jones and Science stood out for Ward, with the former showing some of the practice, 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, huddling 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.

George Pendleton was the first runner to cross the line; William Preston of Hampton was second and William Claytor also of Hampton was third. The fourth barrier to finish was Cornish Pendleton, brother of the first place runner. The race was Howard's on a point score, but since Howard ran ten men and Hampton only two, and both teams secured five points counting from the place secured by the last runner behind the last Hampton runner, the team honors were declared a tie.

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

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
Darkness a Disadvantage
But Hampton was fighting in this game as she can fight when in her stride. A great aerial attack was launched, but darkness was swiftly encroaching. The game was not called until three-thirty. This latter proved a great disadvantage 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.
Dodson punted and Spellman ran twenty yards to Howard's twenty-two yard line. Thutcher and Mansfield went 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's tally came in the third period. Hampton kicked off to Howard's two-yard line and Payne, substituting for Blackman, 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, on over their heads, so Dodson kicked and Gunn received the punt 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 score by scoring a droopkick. 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 lot covering 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 downed. 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 tipped 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 linemen stood out more brilliantly than did Howard, downing Howard backs repeatedly for considerable losses. Jimmie Jones put up the most seintillating game of the present season. Dunlap Jones playing the opposite end for Hampton continued to be a terror to opposing bucks. Creasy and Lee in tackle, Alexander and Coleman in guard, and Pindle in center spiked 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 bim ineligible.

Wills Deciines Bout With Tom Gibbons
New York, Nov. 26—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 Lonic."
Attacking Another
Florence, Ala. Nov. 29. (P. N.
S.) Not satisfied with having attacked and she to death Jerry Williams, an aged Negro. Hale, a young white man, is said to have used the hurt end of his shaggun to lift the lifeless body of Williams and while in the act of chabling 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 gelled 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 clamming him over the head with the butt end of a double-barreled shot gun. The other barrel 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.

Some folks go in for polished reading:
Some for the higher arts by the
fons:
I, sometimes like the high brown stuff—
But I'd rather know who'll win the gonfalon.
The cross roads have been reached and passed by some of the conference elevens, while others were held and thrust back without a possible chance of ever seeing this year the scintillating seat of the mighty, which towers high upon the apex where olive wreaths adorn the victor.
Time has comedged gleefully down the world and Turkey Day is just around the corner with a football menu of merit donned out. The Thanksgiving grid card is jammed full of interesting medes which are slated to get under way. Probably the public at large cannot stand the terrific 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 Holc'ms?"—then the shrill notes of the reference'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 gravy, packing in around 10,000 wild-eyed spectators at their annual clash.
Once again, we never around the Mistir Ornule,
Peering as jur as the human eye eye see--
But after all, the human eye is oval brown.
And we ask here to protect this
final nephews.
HOWARD-LINCOLN — Washington. Here, brothers and lover of the wide open spaces of the white chalked inclosure is, the battle of the year, where, usually all the year pent up up, he gives vent and of battle waxes fast and furious throughout the gruelling clash of body against body and also, against the ground, Lincoln is vated the edge over the Bison clan which has also, gone thru the season without a loss. From indications, Howard usually holds 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 beasts 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 Donghey to cope with the foot-footed 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 ease over aided by the educated toc of Crudup.
PETERSBURG-VA, SEMI-
NARY. Petersburg. And here is
where the Hilltopers should not
experience tions of difficulty in
sweeping on to victory. This is
not an underestimation of the mer-
ities of the Deacon sound, 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 doomed to go down again in defeat. Union runs the race that also wins and when, Bofman, Jackson, Sheldon and Moton start, it takes a real honest-to-goodness stopper to stop them. Hampton showed signs of coming back, when she held 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, Hargrove and some of the lesser light-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 weaker 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 aicious Bear Brigade 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 - Salisbury. It has been
said that Johnson C. Smith, formerly
Biddle, has only won one game
from Livingstone in sixteen years.
From this, we glimpse 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 gorgets until the crushing in of the season unborn.
LINCOLN SWAMPS SHAW
Winnington, Del, Nov. 15.—The Lincoln Lions again swamped Shaw to a score of 36-0 in a driving snow. The Lion pack ran wild and Shaw was unable to stem the trend of battle.
Meropolitan Opera
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 savoir-grand opera composed of painstaking erudition and technical impercability 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
It has been inquired of the Sports Department of this paper, why the Howard-Petersburg game played a fortnight ago at burg did not pay out, but publicity burg did not pay out, 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 due 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 corns 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.

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. B. 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 misshapes, 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 despaired or
forbidden. See I Cor. 145. 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, 22-26.
Need For Tolerance
"This and similar studies of rejigi-us experience convince one of the need of more tolerance as among believers. Let us he more tolerant of others, even if they are not faithful. 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
The 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

MEN'S CLUB PUTS OVER PROGRAM OF INSPIRATION
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 address and said that, one of the sure ways of success was holding to the 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.

Nat'l Ass'n of Wage Earners Hold Their First Annual Meeting
Working Women Dedicate National Headquarters With Well-known Speakers Present. Miss Nannie Burroughs, President.
(Special to the Journal and Guide.)
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, officered by Miss Nannie H. Burrough, D. C., President; Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, Florida, Vice President; Miss Minnie L. 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.
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. Lala Eaglin, Mrs. Janie C. 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 Nannie 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.

. 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, officiated by Miss Nannie H. Burrough, D. C., President; Mrs Mary McLood Bethune, Florida; Vice President; Miss Minnie L. Bradley, Connecticut; Executive Secretary; Miss Maggie L. Walker, Virginia; Treasurer; Mrs. Lizzie B. Fount, Kentucky, registrar, and Mrs. Elizabeth Carter, Massachusetts. Chairman Investment Board, has purchased and furnished headquarters at 1115 Blake Island Avenue, Northwest. It was the dedication of this building that stimulated unusual interest in the annual meeting.
Sermon
Dr. Walter H. Brooks delivered 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—1) 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 prestations from the white people of the city. The building was thrown open for inspection, and during the curate 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, hended by Mrs. White, demonstrated with great skill and ease how to serve a large crowd speedily 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 whisty work. The organization plans to make the model house dress serve as a source of income as well as an opportunity for employment
On down thru the ages of football, the game has never been considered complete without the old yells and the acrobatic cheer leads (7).
---
Every college, school and university, mute or less loosest of one of these wild-eyed jumping jackets of a cheer leader, who whoops 'em up when things get dead.
The part they have contributed to the spirit of the game is incalculable. In a number of instances the aftermath of a game depended on the amount of cheering the players received.
Battling eleven who fought listlessly and with out pep have received new life from a sudden outburst from the strained throat jumping the stands.
Of course, football is not the only college sport that gets the cheers, but it comes in for the greatest portion of it and the other games have to make out as best they can.
They, on the other hand, sports outside of the colleges get the cheers, but it's not the organized systematic honest-to-lob-me-joking cheers of the Campus.
Now, since this unrestrained cheering has so much weight; upon the individuals who take part in college athletic activities, why is this cheering elsewhere in school life.
There isn't the least doubt but that cheering in the class room would have the same effect on the students as it has upon the football player on the gridiron.
Everybody knows that a man never goes to sleep on the football field. Even if the game doesn't interest him, there's the wild cheering and too much of it to allow him to sleep in peace.
And again, there have been instances where spectators' attention was called to something else. Their minds grew entirely away from the game.
But soon as pandemonium broke loose, their attention is again for

Dunn, N. C., Nov. 20, -(P, N. S.)—"I'm lost from her and she's lost from me," said Sam Underwood, when he came to Dunn in search of his wife, Mrs. Jessie Underwood and their three children. He sought the aid of the local newspaper in finding his lost better-half. He has been searching for her for almost a week, day and night, with no satisfying results. The strain of suspense is beginning to tell on him.
The separation of the Underwoods came about in a most unusual manner. They lived at Amherst and were as happy, so he says, as a husband and wife could ever expect to be. His mother, who lives in Fayetteville, was taken sick and he was called to her bedside. He stayed away for several days and in the meantime the land rd put his wife and children out of the house in which he left them. They had to move to some other place and so far Underwood has been unable to learn to what place.

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.

NEGRO MIGRATION AND ELECTIONS
From Information Service, Federal Council of Churches, prepared by the Commission on the Church and Race Relations.
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:
No. of Negroes over 21

West Virginia 10,545 10,545 22,577 11,667
Missouri 10,542 10,542 25,001 14,057
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.

Manufacture and Sale tions Nets Fortune Woman. Business S
(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-notchers 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, IL, 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 chiropody 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 Xegro.
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 book-keeping system. Everyone is in uniform except the officers. The place has a cleanliness, a briskness and a courtesy about it which must give the conclusion that here is a

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 downtown 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 at 3100 Fine street. In 1913, Malone, who was principal of a Negro high school at Quince Hll, met Miss Turnbo and they joined forces. 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 sundries. 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.
Disinelined 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.

If you are among the few who are not familiar with the results obtained from using Calumet, try it—learn the difference between the results that come from using a perfect leavener and those that are experienced when using unreliable brands.
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 spoonful 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
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 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 slows to a stop, her twelve to fourteen cars winding out behind, a dozen blue uniformed figures step smartly out 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 speeiling on again.
The average passenger accustomed to having travel made please, ant 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, Bigman, luggageman, and secretary, are twenty-seven Pullman employees. The valet, and barber, and a mail 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.
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.

IN MEMORIAM
Sacred to the memory of Mrs. Georgia Blackwell, who departed this life one year ago, November 18, 1922.
Oh, the memory of that morning,
As we stood with breaking hearts,
Being the one we loved so dearly
Served by death most evil dart,
And while we laid her form to rest
in Rosemant sacred soil,
We pray that her soul may be at rest,
And her body free from toil.
We shall never cease to love you,
Though your form be in the dust,
And some day we hope to meet
you,
To this end, in God we trust.
Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Bachelor

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.

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 ethers 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 Hedlin. Not so much because the South wanted either of them but because it would have felt duty bound to uphold what it conceived 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.

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 attaché 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.
