Gunn and Jones Through
Gunn and Jimmie Jones played
their last games for Hampton in
‘a. manner befitting to retiring stars.

TURKEY DAY GRIDIRON BOUTS FULL OF FLASH
The Thanksgiving clashes held in the West, East and South illuminated the horizon with the flare and flash of spectacular and exciting team play. Some ancient foes were placed under overwhelming scores as the victors marched on to sweet triumph. Some of the grid meeles resulted in deadlocks which added to keen interest aroused in spectators who did not know what to expect next. A. & T. had an easy time with Bennett while the Seminary Deacons found it a little difficult to ease a touchdown over the Petersburg line. The plucky Durham State Normal squad was snowed under by St. Paul who piled up sixteen points after she got under way. West Virginia and Wilberforce in the West battled to a no score tie for the championship of the Middle West.
WILBERFORCE AND
BOBCATS GO TO A TIE
Columbus, Ohio; Dec. 4—Wil-
berforce University and West Virginia Institute finished in a 0-0 deadlock in their contest Thursday afternoon at Neil Park for the colored championship of the Middle-West.
West Virginia threatened in the second quarter, but lacked the necessary drive to put over a score. A crowd of about 4,500 fans watched the game.
ST. PAUL DOWNS DURHAM
Bx L L WHITEHEAD
Russell Field, Thanksgiving Day —Despite the fact that the Durham State Normal School entered the Virginia-Carolina game the favorite, a record-breaking crowd saw St. Paul Normal and Industrial School conquer the 1924 North Carolina Champions by a 16 to 0 score.

State outplayed the Tigers in the first half, but the plucky visitors could not thwart the furious assault of the "wonder team" in the third and fourth periods. That variegated and tenacious offensive uncovered by St. Paul in the second half of today's clash was a sensation and totally eclipsed the clever and modern tactics of the alert and ingenious Tarheel eleven, and on several occasions raised havoc with the State defense which was of no mean ability.
DEACONS WIN OVER
VIBGINJA NORMALS
o Petersburg, Va., Nov. 27—Displaying a forward passing attack that the home team seemed unable to stop. Virginia Seminary defeated Virginia Normal 6-0, in the last game on the home soil for the Normal boys who wind up their season Saturday with St. Paul at Lawrenceville.
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 27—The Morehouse Tigers, coached by B. T. Harvey, piled up a huge score against the Fisk Bulldogs in the annual Thanksgiving game. Not a quarter passed that the Morehouse backs did not cross the Fisk goal for at least one touchdown.
A. & T. BLANKED
BENNET WARRIORS
Greensboro, N. C., Nov. 27—A.
and T. college football team defeated the Bennett warriors on Dudley field in the annual Thanksgiving game by a score of 27-0.
There was no doubt from the start as to the outcome of the game but in spite of the extra weight of the state team it was a good scrap and the thousand spectators who stood on the sidelines had no cause for disappointment.
VIRGINIA FOSE AND LINCO
The Virginia Rose A. C., a local aggregation and the Lincoln A. C., of Berkley battled furiously to a no score tie at Paige's Park Thanksgiving Day. The battle surged up and down the field for four gruelling quarters with both sounds unable to tally.
The Virginian Rose eleven making marked advance in the realm of local pigskin industry and has gone through the season without a defeat.
INDIANS ON INCREASE
Washington. D. C., Dec. 1—(A. N. P.—)An increase of 2,599 in the number of Indians in the United States exclusive of Alaska the total Indian population being 346,902, is the outstanding feature of the annual report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs covering the past fiscal year submitted to the Secretary of the Interior
MORRISBROWN AND ATLANTA BATTLE TO 0-0
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 27—Morris Brown and Atlanta battled furiously to a scoreless tie on the gridition of the former in a game that labeled the South's greatest. Exactly the offensive strength of Morris Brown was placed on the shoulders of Lockhart, All-Southern quarter last season and "Sleepy" Edwards, the versatile punter, but in spite of these men in the game, the Speed Boys were unable to tally and prevent a deadlock. Upon several occasions, Morris Brown pushed the pigskin down the field within striking distance of the goal but lacked the necessary steam to jump across.
Atlanta had Leak, Just season's All-Southern center in the fray playing at top form and Le Mar at tackle bearing the brunt of defensive play and unable to check the onslaught of the Speed Boys when plays were directed at their positions during three full periods. A large array of fans who journeyed from far and wide to witness the greatest Southern gridiron gorefest received a full hour of real football with the battle waxing fast and furious. Both squads fought with a dogged determination with Morris Brown having the slight edge, tin Edward's punting together with a backfield which has been dubbed the best in the Southern conference.
Lockhart at quarter retains his laurels as the greatest signal barker of the year, so called by "Chapie"Gardner, recognized Eastern authority. Morris Brown is coached by Gardner, of New York City, athletic fame, former coach at Va. Union and graduate of both Union and Howard.

BY WILLEY A. JOHNSON
Richmond, Va., Nov. 27—Getting off at a slow pace, which seemed as if an overwhelming score would be piled up against them, but gradually coming into their own, batting desperately with the odds to the contrary in a game sadly marred with wringing, incompetent officiating and fans charging the field numerous times, the N. A. Cs, Norfolk's crack gridders offset and warted every attempt of the strong Adelphia eleven, of Richmond to push the oval over the last chalk line in the Turkey Day melle staged in the Capital city.
The Richmonders having their every onslaught stopped within striking distance, finally resorted to the dropkick route to clinch the victory with something less than two minutes to play and Tuppence came to the fore and did the dirty work that spelled defeat by a score of 3-0.
Substitutes practically made up Norfolk A. C's first wall of defense and played in good style with "Red" Wright in guard and Booker performing his first duty in center. The latter put up a good showing and is a promising comer for further honors. The veterans

Tuppence runs up a kick for 15-yards, Ammonds adding 4 1-2 to that and Fuller driving through for 7 yards. On the next play, two yards from a score, Tuppence with his line hurdling tactics failed to jump over for a score as Smith hurled him back with a thud.

WOMEN CROWD CHURCH TO HEAR SPECIAL SERMON
Rev. R. H. Bowling Delivers Wonderful Message Sermon For Women Only At First Baptist Church Sunday.
Hundreds of women representing every denomination and class and hailing from as far as Curtuck, N. C., jammed the First Baptist Church last Sunday afternoon to listen to Rev. Richard H. Bowling's address to women only on "Things Every Woman Should Know." Just as advertised in advance, the pastor himself was the only man present and there was no woman in the audience under eighteen years of age. Music was furnished by a large woman's chorus under the direction of Madame Skipins. In the meeting rose to his highest pitch at the close of the speaker's address when a young woman was dramatically converted
After being introduced to the audience by Mrs. M. E. Gordon, Rev. Bowling declared that he was moved to speak to the women of Norfolk on the subject announced because he thought there were some things of tremendous importance to a woman which should be intelligent about. "Her health, her character, her reputation, her eternal destiny, hang in the balance," he said.
Mental Opposites
Mental Opposites
"Mentally you are different from the male, being naturally shy, retreating modest, quick to fly off, easy to cry inclined to become hysterical by reason of a highly nervous organization. But your very difference in temperament helps to make you attack the opposite sex and therefore to keep your womanly characteristics at their best. The desire for the ballot for equal opportunity in the professions, in politics, and in business, is not necessarily detrimental. But avoid the to become masculine or to ape the once taken-for-granted freedom of men to do as they pleased sexually. This only results in making a woman brazen and garulous repellent to the finer type of men.
**Physical Differences** "Physical differences are different from men. But these very differences also make you attractive to the opposite sex. How important it is that you make the most of your peculiar physical endowment. It is not mine to go into anatomical details. But let me call attention to some important considerations. They are that you must not be more than the protection of one's eyes from injury and possible blindness. But just as in the case of the endowment of sex in a woman, one must be cautious." "Here the speaker went into the consideration of matters fitted for mention only before such an audience as that which faced him. Continuing he beckoned the woman. Continuing the society woman must make up in her mind to be a home-maker."
"You are under further obligation," he said, "to be absolutely true to your marriage vows. Sickness, poverty, nothing else which can not be helped, is supposed to excuse you from your pledge of fidelity. To this end I would suggest that you accept nothing which he cannot give. 'Gifts' from male outsiders may in time alienate your affections and plunge you into wrong-doing before you know it."
"Another peril women have always to face along this line is that of the perverted woman. Recall the words of Scripture, 'For their women changed to natural use into that which is against nature.' Indulgence in perverted sexual intercourse is as much a breaking of your marriage vows as a committing adultery."
SPECIAL SPEAKERS AT GRACE CHURCH
Bishop A. T. Thompson and Dr. H. H. Covington Will Deliver Addresses At Evening Services Sunday Dec. 7.
The members and friends of Grave P. E. Church will have the privilege of hearing two master addresses, Sunday evening, 7 when Bishop A. T. Thomson and Dr. H. H. Covington will give specially prepared messages. Bishop Thomson and Dr. Covington are sure to have many things of interest to say and it is hoped that a large number will come out to the meeting. Rev. B. W. Harris, the rector, is making every effort to have this an unusually interesting service.
M.T. OLIVE BAPTIST CHURCH
All services were very well attended and the offerings were very substantial. Under a new heating arrangement the church is kept thoroughly heated in the most severe weather.
Union Thanksgiving services were observed here Thanksgiving Day, the Shiloh and Mt. Olive congregations. Rev. Johnson preached a very powerful sermon from the subject, "The Goodness of God," and the Shiloh male leader presented an appended sermon, the occasion. The Trip Around the World given by the Willing Workers was a great success. Hundreds joined in the merry procession enjoying themselves immensely. The Mistionary Circle met at the church last Wednesday and engaged in an hour of prayer and song, then home of one of the members and presented her an offering. This circle shaning great things for the near future.

In order consistently so to do, I have created and used a set of standards which those who question my conclusions may themselves apply.

This is the curse of American life
Let us try to point out the harn
it does.
‘The Social Waste of Luxury
In the first place, it causes a1
enormous waste of productive enc
gy, in at least two ways. It in.
duces our industries to produce
fastidious luxuries instead of rea
necessities; things we need less, in-
stead of things we need more
‘And that decreases the sum tota
of human satisfaction. To produc:
luxurious limousines, fashionabl:
furniture, epicurean’ foods, _ the
"properties! for special frivolities
and the personal services requisite
to opulent, lazy indolenee, is a so:
ciul waste} because we-need othe!
things more. A family that in.
dulged in such like luxuries, whil:
short on wholesome food, warm
cothing, decent housing and reas.
onable education, would be called
wastefull. ‘The same is true of 3
society—which is what we don"
quite see.
We blind ourselves to the fae:
that luxury is a social waste, first
by the “make work fallacy” 5+
prevalent in the popular supersti-
tions, aud, second, by our every
fellow-for-hiraself assumption the
luxurious self-indulgence is righ
for everybody who can personalls
afford it. When we once realiz
that “Wwe” means all of us, ant
that society is like a large family
and then if will be clear to us tha
luxury by some members of society
ig just as wasteful as extravaganct
by some members of the family.

But as soon as we come to st

into going to work. So lone a:
we envy such persons we shall con.

how much man power (and womat

“Keeping up with the Joneses”
goad SRG: SOURS PIRCe, SHOSE IBIRE
‘ideals cause incaleuable unhappi-
ness, To ride in a high priced car
instead of in a Ford, because one’s
social rivals do so, costs a lot ot
strain and worry, but yields very
little satisfaction in retin. So far
as riding is concerned, a Ford “gets
there just the same.” And as for
“keeping up with the Joneses,”
nothing could be more illusive; for,
no matter what one’s pace, there
are always those whom one must
envy for going faster, There is no
surer way to keep one’s self in hot
water; and the quanity of such un-
happiness in America is enormous,
The writer visited a home the eth-
er day where the furniture was all
twenty years at least out of date—
though from no financial stringen-
cy. But it was a real home, where
peace, contentment and culture ob-
viously abode. ‘That family had
chosen the better part!
Fifth, this mental disease inter-
eres with the growth of morality,
enlightenment and real culture
resourees upon Which a sound civil
ization depend. Naturally it does!
since people pursue what they most
prize and desire. If “culture” is
supposed to mean cut glass bowls,
silk lingeties and sojourns at fash-
jonable resorts; then classical mu-
sic, the best books and enlighten-
ment on the international situation
will not be recognized as culture.
‘The money that is spent on luxu-
ries cannot be spent on scientific
research nor on the secondary cdu-
cation of the masses, And if the
wherewithal to strut is regarded
as the thing most needed, there will
not be too much honesty about how
to get it. There is a direct antas-
onism between the fastidious, riv-
alrous consumption on the one
hand, and the real resources of
civilization on the other. We have
to choose.
Sixth, this ugly thing we are dis-
cussing breeds hatred, class enmity
and social strife, ‘The display of
lusury is one of the most dan-
zeros kinds of explosive that the
children of «a would-be democracy:
zan play with, Nothing is more

verybody belongs to his own class,
ind has little or no expectation of

hopes to rise out of his class; and
miny of us pretend to have done
fo already. Did you ever stop to
hink, readers, that the whole
hing rises out of a paradoxical
misconception of democracy? Let
ug be frank with ourselves, and
sonfess that in the backs of all our
heads is the qucer notion that a
Iemoeracy is a place in which ev-
irybody. indulges the hope that
rither himself or his children may

hai seems the best vse We eit
Chink of to make of our

arecisely what the most of us are
rying to do; struggling to gel ine

cr doubtless remarks to himself:
“Why not? What else is there t
do?” But how in the world do
awe expect to make a real demoera-
ey out of people who are all inspir-
ing individually and severally to by
aristecrats?
When vill be discern that a trae
democracy will be impossible with
fa different set of values comes to
prevail among us? We shall have
to quite rivaling each other in con-
sumption, A really worthful civil
ization can be based only on rival-
ry in production, 'The imental dis-
case under the | consideration is
squarely opposed to the ideals and
aims of democracy. How clear
that is. indeed, when one stops to
think about it!
Rivalry in Self-Indulgence totally
un-Christian
And it is just as squarely op.
posed to the ‘principles of Christi-
anity, The Kingdom of God which
Jesus founded is based on the prin-
ciple of brotherhood.
Think of a family of brothers and
sisters trying each to outdo the
other in ostentatious self-indul-
gence. Such a spirit would spoil
any family. But brothers, even as
they grow older, take pride in each
other's achievements; and they’
love each other for mutual helpful-
ness. So must it be in a Christian
society. Jesus himself said that
among the pagans of his day those
Were acounted greatest who sur-
passed their associates in success-
ful selfishness and indulgence: But
he declared that among his follow-
ers it was to be quite otherwise.
Those would be accounted rcreat-
declared that that is the secret of
a rich and satisfying persovality,
as well as of a happy and success-
ful society.
| If behavior is good -or bad ac-
cording to its results, then cer-
tainly fastidious and rivalrous
consumption is bad conduct. It is
very bad indeed; because it is de-
structive of everything toward
which Christianity and democracy
aspire. Christian ministers should
declare its sinfulness. It should
come to be regarded as vulgar and
disgraceful; just as polygamy has
finally come to be regarded. | And
all who have faith in. Christianity
and democracy should take thought
every day that they set the ex-
ample of a simple, reasonable man-
ner of living. This will require
veal thought indeed, upon the part
of most of us; and Christian con-
seeration,

Sums Of Money To
Aid In Education
Trustees of the Phelps-Stokes Fund Set Aside
$25,000, its Largest Single Donation, for the
Hampton and Tuskegee Campign Fund.
New York, N, Y., Dec. 4.—(A
N. P.)—At the annual meeting ot
ihe Phelps-Stokes. Fund held. i
this city, several actions were tak-
en of large significanee in con.
nection with Negro education, both
in the United States and in Afri
ca, ‘The Trustees present at the
meeting were Dr. Ehner Ellsworth
Brown, Chancellor uf New York
University; Dy. James H. Dillard,
Presidint of the Jeanes and Slater
Funds, of Charlottesville, Va.; Maj.
R. R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee
Institute; Miss Helen Phelps
Stokes, Rev. Anson Phelps Stakes,
Mir. 1 -N. Phelps Stokes, Mr. John
Sherman Hoyt, and Mr. P,Louis
Slads, all of New York City. ‘The
‘Trustees made an appropriation of
$25,000 to the Hampton and ‘Tus-
kegee Campaign. ‘This is the lar-
gest single appropriation that they
Rave made to any object. It is
made both because of the extra-
ordinary service which these two
institutions have rendered the Na-
tion through preparing young col-
cored men and women in an atmos-
phere of idealism and practical
training (o. take their places as
useful members of theiy communi-
ties, and because the Board is most
eager to help these institution car-
ry out their present plans for de-
veloping collegiate departments.
In recent years, as these schools
have only ‘been ranked secondary
schools, their graduates have not
been eligible under the laws of sev-
eral states for high school prinei-
palships and other important posi-
tions in publication education, for
which « college degree is required.
The schools ave therefore raising
jointly a large Fund to enable
them to develop collegiate courses
in teacher training, agricultural
and home economies, in addition to
maintaining their other depart-
ments as in the past.
‘The Trusices have complied with
the request as in the past. Asso-
ciation and other agencies in agree-
ing to re-survey about a score of
the most imrcrtant colored insti-
tutions with a view to making new
vatings which will be fairer to the
calleges themselves and to the pro-
fessional schools to which their
students cften go. This survey
will be made in the spring.
The Board devotes most of its
resourers to a few large undertak-
ings such as the African und In-
dian surveys and the improvement
of tenements in New York, but al-
so it aids from time to time move-
ments in the interest of interracial
co-operation and the education of
the Negro. Small appropriations
were eensequently made to Fisk
and Atlanta Universities, the Na-
tional Association of Teachers in
Colored Schools, the National Ur-
ban League, the Interracial Com-
mission, the Commission on Race
Relations of the Federal Council
of Churches and a few other or-
rnminatione:

| Philadelphia, Pa., Dee. 4.—(A.
IN. P.)—South Africa, land of
promise, haunting, mysterious and
strungely compelling’ is emerging
from the shrouding mists which
have enwrapped the Dark, Conti-
nent for countless centuries, to
‘take its place in the vanguard of
‘the world’s progress. ‘This is the
message A. H. ‘Tatlow, white, of
the South African State Railway,
who arrived in this city Wednes-
day, and Who called the Dark Con-
tinent “their country.”
“Afriea ever has been the enie-
ma of continents,” he declared,
“Although the filst to appear int
the history of mankind, it has been
the last {9 be known and explored.
Vast, strange and incredibly rich,
it remains # lonely and distracting
figure among the countries of the
world, commanding the interest +f
many by virture of its fascinatime
exoticism and brooding alootness.”
While there is stark, primal qual-
ity in the Heart ‘ot Darkness
which may at first repel, he said,
there arises even in the midst of
that repulsion 4 vivid curiosity
which soon expands imo a reluct-
jantly admitted consciousness | of
some undefined, deep and inexplic-
able charm. ,
Despite the fact that 58 per cent
of the world’s gold supply comes
From this portion of the earth, and
95 per cent of all the diamonds,
agriculture, is the chief industry
‘of the country. Corn (or maze a:
jt ix called there) i grown it
large quantities and much of it is
exported to Europe, Wool, cotton,
sugar, large amounts of fruits, os
trich ‘features, mohair, hides ‘and
skins constitule the remainder of
the vonstantly growing volume of
exports, There is also an inex-
houstible coal supply. .
‘Travel ig cheap and comfortable
in South Africa, where the rail-
ways are State-owned. ‘Three
cents 4 mile is the average rate
which includes Pullman aecommo-
dations.
Mr, Tatlow invites visitors to
“his country” in order, he say
that they may carry back with
them “our” invitation to others i.
come and visit “us,” together wit!
a knowledge and ‘appreciation »
“our country”.

The Cincinnati man who objected to serving time in jail in place of his wife who could not pay the fine of $400 charge against her for violating the prohibition law was not of the gallant sort. Far from it. He went to court with her but he balked on going to jail for her. He should have been made of more gallant stuff.
They say the office-seekers are moving on Washington and that city will be jammed with them when the Inauguration is pulled off. Many of them will not be able to leave the city in the long run, unless they hoo it. There are office-seekers now stranded in Washington who went there with high hopes in the Administration of President Hayes. A stranded politician in Washington is a very pitiable object.
The six persons of Suffolk whose car was driven into Chowan river, and all of whom were drowned, were doing the night stunt to reach Winton, N. C. Automobil riding in the day is hazardous enough when you can see and avoid possible danger; but the sightless night offers all sorts of lure to accidents and deaths. It was a ghastly tragedy, one of thousands that happen every day in the country, the automobile having become a veritable juggernaut.

Growth of the Football Classic

The ancient Greeks and Romans knew the value of bodily exercise and carried athletics to a very high state of perfection; but the moderns could easily give them credit for what they did without comparing it with what they have done. Never in the history of mankind has physical culture reached to higher heights in Europe and America than at this time. The growth has been gradual. It was very crude in its beginnings. Now, athletics is regarded as a matter of fact, not only in our colleges and social uplift centers but among ordinary persons who have club associations of their own, and some of the best, for physical culture and development. It is good that it is so. A sound mind requires a healthy body, and this cannot be had without proper physical education.
Take the development of sports in the race colleges. It has been one of the most significant and helpful and has done more to create a feeling of brotherhood among collegians than scholarship could have possibly done. The Howard-Lincoln Classic may be taken as a sign. It has just celebrated its thirtieth anniversary with the Thanksgiving Day grind in Washington. When the Classic started thirty years ago only a few thousand people attended and the cost of it was negligible. This year it was estimated that more than 30,000 persons would witness the game and that the cost of it would be something like $50,000. Those who attended it came from all parts of the country, and thousands journeyed to the National capital in automobiles of their own. As the gathering of so many educated and wealthy people for pleasure it is bound to be significant in the life of the race. The social feature is one of the most important in the life of any people. It should always be of the highest and best, and when those who compose it are educated and prosperous there is no reason why it should not be so. The race is making slow but splendid progress in all directions. The Howard-Lincoln Football Classic is only a sign on the long broad highway of such progress.

The Color Bar in the "Y"
The recent raising of the color bar in the Young Women's Christian Association, in New York, by refusing the application of a young Afro-American student to certain classes of the "Y," is a matter of grave concern to the race, because it is so largely concerned in the work of the men and women's departments of the Associations' activities. It is a well known fact that the white branches generally do not invite and seldom tolerate the membership, or participation in the advantages of the work, of Afro-American men and women. This has become more markedly so in the larger growth of the work than it was in its smaller beginnings. It is a great hardship to the race to have such color bar in a Christian work so helpful in the life of its membership.
In the case of the Women's "Y" in New York, the contention was set up that it was necessary to have class or race group organization so that there might be the least possible friction.. In the social phases of the work this might hold good, but in the benevolent and educative work of the Association it would not. Neither of the Associations is a social organization, as such; they are both Christian organizations, supported by public gifts, for the benefit of Christian young people in many ways, and when they establish the color bar they openly challenge the Christian sentiment as to the sincerity of their professions and purposes.
We have Afro-American branches of the "Y" for both men and women, and they serve a good and healthy purpose. They are controlled by the white parent boards, on which we have a limited representation, and the branches are manned for the most part by men and women of our own; but the feeling is growing that we should have and dominate our own "Y" service, as we do that of our churches, and for the same reasons, because we do not get equality of benefits and opportunities in the white service, and our feelings are irritated by the assumption that we are not good enough to associate with white members in the educative and charitable features of the "Y" work. Unless there is a change of policy we are minded that the time will come when the white and colored membership of the two "Y's" will separate and go their ways, as our churches found it good to do.
Taking What You Desire of Weaker People
Just how far the individual Christian has got away from the Christian philosophy of brotherhood and do unto others as you would that they do unto you is to be found in the very general disposition of buyers and sellers of the necessary things of life to get the best of the bargain. The disposition to pile on the price of things as far as the traffic will stand goes hand in hand with the protest against the price by the buyers, who go away and dicker the same way for anything they may have that has exchange value. That is to say, the average Christian has become selfishly self-centered and callous in getting the better of any transaction to which he may be a party. It may be pleaded that this is human nature. Yes, human nature at its worst and against which Jesus spent three years of preachment and a few hours of agony on the Cross.
Jesus made the atonement for us all in the moral ethics of our relations one with the other, and what he gave us as an example we have either to live up to or suffer for falling short of. "All Scripture is given for ensample." And the spirit and the words and acts are as one for justification or condemnation.
As it is with Christian persons so it has become with Christian Nations. The eternal principle of statesmanship appears to be to get the better of the other Nation and to take and have and hold what you desire of the Nation that is weaker than yours. It has been the loadstone of Christian statesmanship and is responsible for most of the wars which have desolated the earth from the crushing of Jerusalem by the Romans to the crushing of the Germans by the Allies. But crushed and crusher suffer almost as much in war's mad delirium.
Since the Spanish American War the United States has followed the example of Europe in grabbing what it desired of weaker people for trade and strategic advantage, and justifying the wrong in the same way that European statesmen do it. But there is no justification, except by the rule that Might makes Right, and we all know that it does not, however self-interest may determine. And those who sow to the wind in these matters always reap the whirlwind. George Washington, in his Farewell Address, justified no such aggressions and exploitations of "foreign entanglements," and we cannot do it.
A crisis has arisen in the politics of Europe because Great Britian has taken over virtually a Protectorate of Egypt and the
Norfolk Journal and Guide
Sudan country, because some radicals at Cairo murdered General Stark. The Egyptian Government was not concerned in the murder, but the British hold it responsible, in the same way that Austria held Serbia and precipitated the World War. The British have effected a bloodless revolution in Egypt, but the discontent in Egypt and the Sudan, and in all of the countries in Africa dominated by Europeans, will be increased and is liable at any time to break out into a devastating war. It is easy to indict an individual but well nigh impossible to indict a Nation. European oppression of Africans and Asiatics is fast coming to a crisis which may easily become a tragedy of the Nations.
Spirit of the Press
From Kansas City Call.
Roland Hayes, appearing before cosmopolitan audiences at one, two and even three dollars per seat, makes the heart full with gladness. Our race's way upward is open, for it is a Negro who is welcomed as an artist in the most exclusive of cultured circles. To many, the two thousand dollars he receives for each appearance, is the big feature, but to us the thing of supreme import is the approval given. Praise for Roland Hayes is not cunning bid for his favor. It is not a bit of encouragement tossed to a struggling artist. It is the seal of merit.
The More Education, The More Earned
If a young man wants money badly enough he can stop his school work early and go to work. Figures show that of those who do not finish high school, the average maximum earnings per year are $1,200. The worker gets it sooner, but loses the ability to keep it sooner. His earning capacity begins to drop at 50 years. The high school graduate earns an average of $2,200 and can continue to earn at that rate several years longer. In short the one has a quicker start, lower wage, and quicker finish. The other a slower start larger wage and an equally long or longer period of earning. The college graduate earns on average of $6,000 per year and is producer even longer than the other two.
Looking at these facts, it is clear that the youths who stop work to get busy at supporting themselves of their family are robbing their future. They are taking one dollar when a wait of a few years will give them two to six. They yield up the longer life of independence for the fancied advantage of an early start. Parents who bear the sacrifices of getting their children thru ward schools, must not give up when they reach high school or college. The extra time in school is the making of the better and longer service.
Radio A Link in the Family Circle
From Christian Science Monitor
Probably no entertainment and educational device in history has seized so firmly upon the interest of the public as radio. Not even motion pictures have had such universal appeal, for the exhibition of a film implies a theater or hall and a sufficient audience to pay for the showing. Isolation is an obstacle to the enjoyment of motion pictures, for a journey to and from the place of exhibition is involved; but isolation is a positive advantage in connection with radio. Even more than the dwellers in cities do the people in the country enjoy the radio, for with houses well separated there is little or no interference between users' receiving sets, and slight interference be tween the radiocasting stations so far as the listeners are concerned.
Whether one lives in the country or the town, radio has opened up a new horizon. In these days of international radiocasting one finds a new meaning in the Shakespearean quotation. "The world is mine oyster." For radio literally brings the world, or no small share of it, in at our windows via the radio aerial, and at will, guided by the daily programs printed in newspapers, we may turn to stations within a circuit of several hundred miles and listen to the desired concert, lecture or play. Some persons have expensive sets that bring in everything within a thousand-mile radius, but the great majority find more entertainment and instruction than they can put together andemfashion in an evening within two or three hundred miles of their homes.
Perhaps the most significant thing about radio is that it means most within the home. This new marvel is proving a means of drawing families together and keeping their members from wandering idly out into the night in search if diversion. Would you hear music by a string trio, an organ, a little symphony orchestra, or a band? Or would you prefer to hear a baritone, a tenor, a soprano, or a contralto? Perhaps you like quartets and choruses. Or, since all these may be had any evening, maybe you will prefer to listen to a talk by some Government official upon some vital national issue.
All of these are at the beck of your fingers from dusk to midnight, and all may be enjoyed without a break in the family circle. For those who are mechanically inclined—and most boys are at some time or other—there are the fascinations of radio experiment and one more means of giving the young folks an interest within the home instead of outside. With a radio set in the home, truly one has a device which literally can match the imaginary powers of Aladdin's lamp.

Choice of Party and Political Independence
Editor of Journal and Guide,
Sir: While I am in hearty
favor of complete political
independence for the Negro to the
extent that he should vote for
that party which he considers
the best party to advance his
interests, I am totally out of
accord with the reasons advanced
by our politicians for going over
into the Democratic party during
the campaign just closed.
I would not vote the entire Race
for the Democrats to satisfy the
disappointed and the office-seeking
who first beg at the Republican
pie counter and being repulsed go over to the other side
and try to take the rest of the
voters with them in order to
satisfy their personal vengeance,
nor would I advise the voters to
vote the Democratis ticket because of the Davis stand on the
Klan however praiseworthy and unequivocal that stand amy have been.
The convention that nominated Davis was torn asunder over the Klan and dared do what he did do. On the only recorded vote it took on the Klan, it rejected the proposal to denounce the order by name. On the other hand McAdoo who had Klan endorsement persisted for over a week in receiving a majority of the votes which in a Republican convention would have entitled him to the nomination. So it is plain that the convention from which the Davis nomination sprang was a divided Klan affair, a prolonged contest between the Klan and the Anti-Klan factions and sears were inflicted there which have never healed. Why then were the lofty sentiments of its nominee subject to such credence when there was no dynamite behind them? The issue is a matter to be dealt with by the states. At best had Davis been elected, he could only have aired his views in a message to Congress and had his party received a majority in the Senate, the message would have found sympathy at the hands of such friends of the race as Heflin, Simmons, Caraway and our own Carter
From the Providence (R. L.) News.
During the recent political campaign Providence was visited by many able and eloquent speakers—Democratic, Republic a n, Third Party, Farm-Labor. We had the privilege and pleasure of listening to most of them.
William H. Lewis, the Negro leader, rose to a height of oratory in his Elks hall address on Monday evening, November 2, such as has been attained by few men who have come within range of our experience.
We have heard the eloquent Vance of North Carolina. We have a faint remembrance, being a boy, at the time of the "Plumed Knight," James G. Blaine. We have been thrilled by the "fire-eating" Benjamin R. Tillman and the scholarly John Sharp Williams and the learned constitutional lawyer, Senator William E. Borah or Idaho.
We have been inspired by the silvery tongue of Augustus Thomas , the playwright, one of the few men in our time whose clear, ringing words could be heard in the farthermost corners of the vast Madison Square Garden, seating 12,000 persons.
Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler, ex-Lieutenant Governor of New York, with his great booming voice, is a splendid speaker; Joe King of Alabama, at one time a Representative in Congress, had marvelous fluency, "that pure and magnificent diction such as flowed from the lips of Socrates, and which Cicero declared Jupiter would use if Jupiter spoke Greek."
And many more. Fourth Estate "victims," in the course of their daily toil, see the best of them in action. Looking back over many years, we can recall no speech that we consider the superior of William H. Lewis's matchless oration at Elks Hall this week, before an audience that crowded the aisles and overflowed into the corridor. For more than an hour and thirty minutes he held his hearers spellbound with his mighty appeal to the colored people of the nation to "quit playing the sucker any longer to the Republican party," and urging them to join with Democracy as their
Saturday, December 6, 1924
Glass of Virginia who although anti-Ku Klux is anti-Negro as witness his work in framing the disfranchisement clause of the new Virginia constitution adopted back in 1902. This brings me to the point that anti-Ku Klux does not necessarily mean pro-Negro. Many of the men now opposed to the Klan have been eloquent in their silence during the years when viler crimes than those committed against black folks, and their only concern now is not because of the vileness of Klan atrocities —because Klan atrocities are not new in the category of frightful crimes to these folks—but they are concerned because Klan activities have resulted in white women being tarred and feathered and white men whipped, placed on trains and banished from their communities. Politicians have seized upon this state of things in order to ride into office during the public clamor but some of these men have a mighty bad past record in the battle for the attainment of the full measure of human freedom, the securing of human rights and the strengthening of the ties of human brotherhood in the world.
Back in 1908 during Mr. Taft's first campaign for the Presidency, Dr. Albert Shaw, editor of the Review of Reviews, made the pronouncement that it would be better for the entire country when more Negroes voted the Democratic ticket and more Southern white folks voted the Republican ticket. Such an attitude of deliberate political independence should proceed just as orderly now that the Republican administration has been re-elected as if a Democratic administration had been chosen. Even if the Congress which in December 1925 or in special session before that time passes legislation deemed by us worthwhile this policy of an intelligent political division should continue.
Do the Republican and Democratic National Committees send speakers into Mississippi and Alabama during the progress of a campaign? No. They are after doubtful states like Maine, Missouri and Kansas and that is why such states enjoy a wealth of the best speakers of both
only hope of political emancipation.
"When the shackles fell from my body, they fell from my mind and soul, and I claim the right as any other man does to vote for any party," shouted Lewis.
"We have been slaves of the Republican party. Toombs once said: 'The slave I pity; the rebellious slave, I respect.'
"I say here and now they don't climb into power again on my back and leave me on the outside.
"I am turning away from the traditions of a lifetime," continued Mr. Lewis. "I have set myself to the task of abolishing the color line from American politics. I want to see the day come when no man can tell another's political creed by the color of his skin.
"The Republican party has no sympathy or understanding of the black people. Our only hope is with the Democratic party. We are with you, that is, those who are following me in this great movement, because we feel we must be with you. Where else in God's name can we go?"
There is not space here, as we would like to have the space, to quote Mr. Lewis in full. His closing sentences, as we caught them—the former Assistant United States Attorney General spoke extemporaneously—have burned deep into our memory: "I am looking through the gateway of the tomorrow down the broad highway of time. I want to see my children and all my grandchildren marching with all the children of the nation, going up and not down, with the greatest democratic nation that the Almighty has yet vouchsafed to man.
"A grave responsibility rests upon us all. Ae we love our God and believe that religion should be free; as we love humanity and believe that all men are free and equal and entitled to the right of life, liberty and happiness; as we believe in one government for all and not for a plivilaged few, we have got to stand together for our common good, the salvation of the common people and for the common interests."
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS IN NEGRO HISTORY
BY GEORGE WELLS PARKER
Author of the Children of the Sun
Questions pertaining to Negro history anywhere if of general interest and not too long will be answered by Mr. Parker in this column. When spare will not permit or the subject
Q. In an editorial by Arthur Brisbane in the Herald and Examiner last week, the writer claimed a great civilization for the Negro and that it was the equal and probably the superior of anything of the white race has accomplished. Where does he secure the facts? B. H. G., Chicago Ill.
A. Brisbane secures his facts by reading and studying the archeological reports and discoveries. It is a subject which few Negroes know anything about and apparently care less. The Negro is asleep. The white man knows what it means and while some suppress it, others like Brisbane don't mind writing about it to take some of the conceit out of the dominant white. Q. Were the Moors of Spain Negroes? T. L. K., Omaha, Neb. A. Yes, Negroes and black Negroes at that. They ruled Spain for 700 years and when they were overthrown, Spain sank into ruin. Bernadotte, one of Napoleon's marshals, was a dark complexioned Moor and founded the present reigning dynasty of Sweden.
Q. Was Euclid, the founder of modern geometry, a Negro? A. Euclid was a Negro and an African. He taught mathematics at Alexandria in Egypt. Q. I have read somewhere that one of the great dynasties of India was founded by Africans. Is it true and which dyparties, while the Solid South already decayed politically is allowed to further stagnate and retrograde both by the G. O. P. and by the party which they have ignorantly and blindly followed regardless of issue for a century.
The Negroes to the North have thrown off this yoke and thru the strategic employment of the ballot have become a powerful force catered to by both parties, and while all before they have been handed out only mercenary crumbs deserved of factotum and ward heeler, they are now given recognition and offices of distinction regardless of which party gains the ascendancy and their influence in securing civic projects for our benefit and their bearing while in office reflect credit upon the race as a whole.
We must understand that in 1860 we had the sympathy of the Republican party because the liberal element was in control of that party. In 1924 the reactionary element is in the ascent in the party and the liberal element is in the descent. In 1860 human rights were prized more highly than property rights. In 1924 the dollar is superior to the individual. To compare 1860 with 1924 is to appeal from Philip sober to Philip drunk.
We need to make an intelligent appeal to the liberal forces of all parties, classes and groups in order that they may make our cause their own and when we divide our vote, we show a capacity for enlightened political discernment which awakens a response in the groups to which we make our appeal and this response arouses interest which in turn arouses solicitude and advocacy of our cause.
The Negro has become a factor too important, his interests too broad and his engagements too varied to longer trust his destiny to the practical expediency of one party, the benign settlement of the caucus or the judgment of some arbiter hidden behind the scenes. The ballot box should be his ante-room and thru this room he should remember that party, caucus member, and patronage distributor must pass in order to reach their positions.
When to join the liberal forces of the Democratic party we vote the Democratic ticket we must be careful to emphasize that we are as much out of harmony with the reactionary element in that party as we are with reactionary element of the Republican party, and further more our voting their ticket is no concession to their historical attitude of abridgment of our rights but we vote their ticket in order to preserve and enlarge those rights—not a lack of appreciation of the Republican appeal of equal rights for all but a thorough disgust with their failure to put

nasty is it? K. J., Philadephia, Pa.
A. The present dynasty at Delhi was founded by Africans. The ruler of the former dynasty brought African soldiers to India to be his body guard. Later they rebelled, overthrew him and usurped the throne. Negro races, however, were among the very earliest inhabitants of India and created its civilization. The so-called Aryan, or white races, came later as invaders, but were swallowed up by the darker peoples.
Q. When were Negroes first distranchised?
A. The Negro was first disfranchised in the District of Columbia by a Republican Congress. While all the inhabitants were disfranchised, the real object was to get rid of the Negro vote. Oliver P. Morton, Senator from Indiana, fought it bitterly and warned the Republican that it would be a precedent which the South would follow. But the Republicans passed it and the words of Morton came true. Q. Is the new President of Cuba a Negro? T. W. D., St. Louis, Mo.
A. The new President of Cuba is a man of mixed blood, a considerable part of which is Negro. His wife is of Spanish descent and he has two daughters, both girls strikingly mulatto in appearance.
this appeal into practice and we go over into the Democratic party not in a spirit of complacency or satisfaction with the past performance of that party but in order that they may take up the fight against proscription and injustice where the Republicans have left off and that they may have opportunity to give life to Woodrow Wilson's manifesto that his party is the only instrument worthy of support on the part of oppressed and aspiring groups.
Mr. Editor, in conclusion I want to pardon your indulgence. I have purposely held back publication of this article until after the election because I did not want to take the position of seeking to persuade the voters one way or the other. I now send it forth after the wind has ceased, and the billows have passed away and the sea is serenely blue.
