NIECES FIGHT FOR THE ESTATE OF CENTENARIAN One Armed With Deed And Other With Will Agree To Compromise And Divide Deceased's Property. Wilmington, N. C., March 20—A family row over the $2,500 estate left by the late Ned Gause, centenarian, whose death occurred a few months ago, was compromised in Superior Court on March 11, when the litigants, one armed with a will and the other a deed, both calling for the same property agreed to a division after it became apparent to Judge J. Lloyd Horton, the presiding jurist, that fully two days would be necessary to hear all the evidence. Issues Complicated The issues involved were of a complicated nature and counsel for both sides were willing enough to compromise the matter, readily agreeing to the appointment of K.

Riley went to High Point on March 13, and arrested and brought back Madame Marion, (white) a fortune teller, wanted here on the charge of extortion of $175.00 from a colored woman while she was located near the court house some weeks ago. She told this woman that she could tell her where there was a pot of gold. The woman became interested right away, and drew out her savings of $150 and borrowed $25 and gave it to Madame Marion. The plan was for the woman to let Madame Marion wear around her neck the $175.00 of hers, and for the race woman to wear around her neck for seven days a like amount from the fortune teller. This agreement was carried out. Then the fortune teller told the woman that she would have to wear her $175.00 around her neck for another seven days, and while carrying out this requirement she skipped.

WHITE STUDENTNOW ADMITS FALSE IDEA OF COLORED FOLKS Attitude Transformed By Interracial Conference Group; Believes Something Should Be Done About It. (Special in Journal and Guide) Atlanta, Ga, March 18—An interesting feature of the Interracial Movement in the South has been the organization of interracial student groups in a number of college centers, by which white and colored students are brought together at regular intervals for the exchange of views and the promotion of understanding. The results have been gratifying in every case. Mispreceptions have been cleared up, knowledge has taken the place of rumor and preconception, and confidence and good will have supplanted suspicion and prejudice. The following story shows how the plan works: At an early meeting this year of the Atlanta group, made up of students from three white and three colored colleges, the question of higher education for Negroes was raised. One white student very frankly said that he did not believe in it; he thought it unnecessary and undesirable. He was asked to bring in at the succeeding meeting a paper in support of his view, while a colored student was asked to prepare a paper on the other side. With much interest the group looked forward to the expected debate. Changes His Views At the next meeting of the committee, the white student was called upon for his paper. He replied, "I haven't any. When I began to look into the subject, I found I was wholly mistaken. My views are completely changed. I believe now that colored students should have the same sort of educational opportunities that other people have. (Continued on Page Three) Men Of National Prominence Laud Magnificent Contribution of Oil Magnate To Cause Of Negro Education. GOVERNOR TRINKLE EXPRESSES DELIGHT The New York Herald-Tribune in its issue following Mr. John D. Rockefeller, jr.'s announcement last week of his contribution of $1,000,000 to the Hampton-Tuskegee endowment fund to be used unconditionally for the advancement of education among Negroes, carried an article in which Mr. Rockefeller was generously lauded for his gift by prominent persons in various walks of life, who characterized his act as the beginning of a new era in racial conditions in this country. The Herald-Tribune article The Herald-Tribune article read: "Mr. Rockefeller's gift to the $5,000,000 fund now being raised," a telegram from Chief Justice William Howard Taft read, "is a noble one and gives the strongest reason to hope that the $1,500,000 yet to be raised by January 1, 1926, may be secured. Race Problem Vanishing "Those of us who have studied the influence of Hampton and Tuskegee know how much this support of those two institutions means in the solution of the race question in this country. The story of Hampton and Tuskegee, beginning with Armstrong and continuing with Frissell and Booker T. Washington and Moton and Gregg, is full of elevating inspiration which banishes pessimism and substitutes the brightest hope for the discouragement that, in times past, has affected lovers of this country in respect to the future of the Negro and his usefulness as a citizen. "The friends of Hampton and Tuskegee and of the Negro education in the South in general are to be highly congratulated," a message from Charles W. Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard University, said, "on the extraordinary success of the movement to add largely to the endowment of each of these very serviceable institutions. Mr. Rockefeller's and Mr. Eastman's gifts (George Eastman has pledged $2,000,000 if the schools succeed in raising $5,000,000 by the end of 1925) will mean much to the cause of Negro education, both now and through a long future, and that cause means much to the progress of industrial and political peace between whites and blacks in the Republic." Among the other expressions of satisfaction received were those of Newton D. Baker, formerly Secretary of War; Governor E. Lee Trinkle of Virginia, Julius Rosenwald, of Chicago, George Foster Peabody and Dr. James E. Gregg principal of Hampton Institute. "Constructive." Baker's "The splendid gifts," Mr. Baker wired, "of Mr. Rockefeller and Mr. Eastman to the so-called Hampton-Tuskegee Endowment Fund enlarge the possibilities of the most constructive and valuable work done in behalf of Negro education. No public beneficence in many years has seemed to me more constructive or of larger permanent value." "I am more than delighted," said Governor Trinkle, "to learn that John D. Rockefeller, jr., is making a contribution of $1,000,000 to the Hampton-Tuskegee Endowment Fund. This is certainly an evidence of the fact that he is genuinely interested in the development of the Negro of the South and in preparing him, through teaching and provisional training, to satisfy and enlarge the rising standards of Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia and other progressive states of the South which wish the Negro well." "The entire Negro race," read the message of Mr. Rosenwald, "which is, at the present time, standing on tiptoe, eager to receive educational help, will be tremendously benefitted by the $1,000,000 contribution of Mr. Rockefeller, just announced. With the inspiration of this splendid gift, I feel sure that, other thoughtful (Continued on Page Three) Thrift Will Be Emphasized In Connection With Drive To Boost Trade—Substantial Increase In Sales Expected To Follow. MINISTER PROTESTS THE GOVERNOR OF USE OF 'DARKEY' IN GEORGIA DESIRESTO DAILY PAPER HEADS PUNISH LYNCHERS Retail merchants and other business firms, including insurance men, bankers, building and loan officials, real estate brokers, etc., are prepared to inaugurate Trade Week here tomorrow, Saturday morning, March 21, with a vim. Plans have been in the making for the past fortnight looking to making the event one of the most successful movements ever instituted in Norfolk, and directors of the campaign frankly believe their efforts will meet with substantial success. The movement is the outgrowth of an idea held by a number of local colored business men, who believe that if Norfolk's enterprises are to grow, they ought to be thoroughly advertised, and that special efforts should be made at regular intervals to remind the public in the ways of thrift and frugality. It, therefore, is planned to serve a two-fold purpose; one, is to boost local business, and thereby boost Norfolk; the other, is to encourage local families to adopt a budgetary system in their homes and to practice thrift by surrounding themselves with the things that make for stable citizenship. Retailers of daily necessities are cooperating in the movement with a view of acquainting the public where the goods they sell, and the public must have, can be obtained without doing violence to the principle of thrift. These dealers are not asking the public to do extravagant purchasing during Trade Week, but merely request those people who intend buying the things they have to sell to make special efforts to call into their establishments and get acquainted. Every family in the city will buy something next week, the same as Rev. B. H. Hester, of Fredricksburg, Tells Editor Freeman, of News Leader, Words Are Unchristian. Richmond, Va., March 18—In a recent letter to Mr. Douglas Freeman, editor of the Richmond News Leader, the Rev. B. H. Hester, pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church, Fredricksburg, called the former's attention to the use of the words "coon" and "darkies" in the headings of the paper on two separate occasions, and politely but strongly protested such terms of contempt as unfair, unchristian and dangerous. Mr. Freeman promptly acknowledged receipt of the letter and informed Rev. Hester that he (Mr. Freeman) did not like the use of such words in the paper and had ordered that hereafter they be eliminated. "The News Leader is one of the leading daily papers of the country, and is a powerful factor in shaping public sentiment. We know of nothing that has better promoted peace and harmony between the races in the South than the calm, logical, commonsense editors in the News Leader, and we trust that the News Leader will continue this indispensable service. "Allow us to call your attention however, to certain terms used in different headings that are not desired to produce the best result Namely, in the issue of the News Leader dated March 3, was an item (which we inclose) the subject of which referred to a member of the colored race as a "coon". Also recently an item in your paper referred to the members of the Sabbath Glee Club as "darkies". If may be in both cases that no harm but humor only, was intended; but cannot we have humor in a less expensive way?

Desirability of Insurance Local insurance men are particularly anxious to see Norfolk rated as having the highest per capita insurance protection of any city its size in the South. They are pointing to the fact that the prime necessity for carrying adequate life insurance is for family protection. Beyond this, they are reminding the public of other very substantial benefits that good insurance makes possible for the insured. It protects the home and family investments. A good policy is collateral for a loan, which may be needed to save valuable holdings, or to avert a crisis in a financial contingency. Men in Norfolk who have had years of experience in writing ordinary insurance tell of incidents wherein a bereft widow and children have been enabled to wipe the mortgage off their home from the proceeds of life insurance policies carried by their deceased husband and father. And they also tell of cases where families have been sep- (Continued on Page Nine) THE GOVERNOR OF GEORGIA DESIRESTO PUNISH LYNCHERS Informs N. A. A. C. P. That He Has Directed That Maximum Reward Be Offered For Apprehension. (By N. A. A. C. P.) New York, March 18—Governor Clifford Walker of Georgia, replying to the recent telegram of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People on the burning at stake of a Negro in that State, has written a letter stating that he will do all possible to abolish mob violence. Governor Walker stated: "I acknowledge receipt of your telegram and assure you that this as well as any other suggestion you may make to me, will have my earnest personal consideration. I remind you that in my executive order entered some months ago, I directed that the maximum reward allowed by law be offered immediately upon the announcement of any mob violence in this State.Pursuant to this order, such a reward has been offered and you may be assured that this office will cooperate in any possible way in the effort to abolish mob violence in this State."

ASSERT PACT SETTING UP DEAD LINE BROKEN Asserting that an agreement that no property was to be sold to colored people on Corprew avenue, from Maltyb街 east cast to Memorial Park was violated in recent sales consummated by the Brown Realty Company, a delegation of a hundred or more white men visited two homes owned and occupied by colored persons on Corprew avenue in the 1200 block on Tuesday night and ordered the occupants to move out of their homes within twenty-four hours. The men then went to the home of G. W. C. Brown, general manager of the Realty Company, on Calvert street, and finding him away from home, left with Mrs. Brown that he should cancel all outstanding agreements to sell property on Corprew avenue, and refund deposits or payments made on purchases, or "it would not be pleasant for him," according to a statement made by Mr. Brown to a reporter for this paper. Owners Ordered to Move The first home visited was that of Mrs. Martha Reynolds who with her husband and family moved into her home after paying a deposit on same, December 13, 1924. The Reynolds home is situated on Correpw avenue, between Malthy and Hansom avenue. The purchase transaction was completed on February 16, and -Mrs. Reynolds was given title to the property, Brown Realty. Company acting as the selling agent. The men who called at the Reynolds' home Tuesday night told members of the family that they were members of the Brambleton Civic League, and that they were there to notify them that they could not live in the house, but would have to move within twenty-four hours. This the family agreed to do. After interviewing the other family in the block they went to the home of Mr. Brown, a few blocks away. Says Police Didn't Respond When the delegation of Brambletonians reached the Brown home it was about 11 o'clock, their neighbors say. Mr. Brown and his family were at church. A near by resident came out of his house to see what the commotion was all about. It happened that his name is Brown, and thinking that he was the real/estate man, members of the mob seized him and started to handle him roughly. He established his identity and was released. Returning home he put in a riot call, he said, to police headquarters, and was told that the reserves were on their way. Meanwhile another neighbor hurried to the second precinct station and asked for police protection, and was told the police were on their way to the scene. But the reserves did not put in their appearance at the Brown residence until 12:30 a.m., when, Mr. Brown stated, two policemen came. While the mob was congregated around her house Mrs. Brown returned home from Bethel Baptist Church, where she was attending services. When she told them that her husband had not returned from Bank Street Baptist Church, where he was worshipping, they stated their business to her. The Dead Line Pact About two years ago following considerable trouble between colored purchasers and residents of the section bordering on Brambleton, there was a conference between certain real estate men; a city councilman, an attorney living in Brambleton and City Manager Ashburner, at which conference it was tentatively agreed that no Corprew avenue property would be sold to colored people. That thoroughfare was held to be the "line of demarcation" between white Brambleton and a colored residential section lying between Princess Anne Road and Brambleton, and running to Park avenue on the east. G. W. C. Brown was not in this conference, not being in business at the time. (Continued on Page Three.) PAGE TWO EXPERT HERE TO FIT ARTIFICIAL EYES TO ALL DESIRING THEM Will Be At Hall Optical Campany, Granby Street, Thursday, March 26, And Invites Appointments. A specially trained expert from one of the leading manufacturers of artificial eyes will be in Norfolk on Thursday, March 26, to make to individual order eyes for such as wish to avail themselves if this service. He will be at the G. L. Hall Optical Company, 257 Granby street, and it would be well for those desirous of having an artificial optic to make an appointment with the expert for some hour Thursday then the Hall Company. Very little is generally known about artificial eyes, and yet there are a great many being worn today—so beautifully matched with the good eye that very few can detect the artificial. Artificial eyes have been in use for a great many years. Up until comparative recent years, the art of making eyes was confined to one family in Germany who kept the secret and handed it down from father to son for generations. Today, however, there are a number of manufacturers who make a specialty of supplying the demand which is considerable—enabling the unfortunates who have been deprived of an eye thru accident or otherwise, to walk among their fellow beings without embarrasment or humiliation. Thomas B. Chestnut Dies Suddenly Mr. Thomas B. Chesnutt, who for a number of years had been a member of the mechanical staff of the Guide Publishing Company, died suddenly Saturday morning, March 15. Although Mr. Chesnutt had been in declining health for several months, his death proved a shock to his co-workers, friends and family. He was native of Wilmington, N. C., where his remains were carried, accompanied by Mr. F. C. Sadgwar, an old friend of the family, for funeral and interment. The deceased was a member of one of Wilmington's oldest and most highly respected families. He was well-known in several sections of the country, having followed his trade in publishing houses North and South. Aside from following the printers trade, he had some years ago served as a railway mail clerk and more recently held a position at Tuskegee. Thomas B. Chesnut manifested deep loyalty to the Guide Publishing Company throughout his long years of service with the firm. He was an expert workman of a genial and joyful disposition that made him close friends wherever he went. In the Guide plant he was well liked and enjoyed the respect of all who knew him in the community. His death is keenly felt by his employers, associates and host of friends. Mr. Chesnut is survived by one brother, Dr. Dallas W. Chesnut; three sisters, one of them being Mrs. Robert R. Taylor, of Tuskegee Institute, who went to Wilmington to attend the funeral. Mass Meeting To Raise $1400 For Burkeville Miss Agnes D. Randolph, assistant instructor in tuberculosis to Dr. Williams of the State Health Department, will address a mass meeting of colored citizens on Wednesday night, April 1st. This will mark the close of Norfolk's effort to raise $1,400 toward a total of $10,000 to be raised by the colored people of Virginia. If the colored citizens will raise $10,000 thru the sale of "Good Will Bonds," the State will give a similar amount for the erection of an additional building for the care of colored tubercular patients at Burkeville. Portsmouth's quota is $800. Rev. Dr. M. E. Davis, Presiding Elder of the A. M. E. Church is heading the drive in the State. He reports that all the principal cities have lined up nicely, their leading ministers promising to give their support to making the campaign a success. Bonds may be secured at any of the churches. Each buyer is asked to contribute at least one dollar. JOHN WESLEY M. E. CHURCH At 11 o'clock the pastor preached a wonderful sermon.

Norfolk Vocational Teachers Organize On January 28 and 29, in the School Administrator Building, the Norfolk Colored vocational teachers were in conference with Prof. Van Gogh, director of Vocational Education of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, on teaching methods and teachers guidance. Food for much thought and inspiration was served. During this conference on January 29, the teachers organized into a body named the Colored Industrial Teacher's Association of Norfolk, Va. The aim of this organization is to create interest and unity, boost vocational and home-commercial training, achieve public knowledge and recognition of their profession and better couple themselves for the needs of the children. The following were elected of Men invariably say when they see women like Miss Lottie Gee, Prima Donna of the "In Bamville" Company, whose smooth, glossy, daintily perfumed hair, attractively arranged, gives her such an appealing charm— You, too, can have the appeal of beautiful hair.

HIS ASHES ON CITY PARK London-The will of Dr. J. B. Sutton provided that his ashes be scattered over the city park at Stokes Poges. Say Rockfeller's Gift Marks New Era For The Race (Continued from Poge One) Americans will respond generously to the appeal for $1,500,000 still needed to secure the additional $2,000,000 from Mr. George Eastman, which is conditional upon $5,000,000 being raised." Nation's Welfare Involved "The gift of Mr. Rockefeller to the Hampton-Tuskegee Endowment Fund," is the comment of Mr. Peabody, "is characteristic of him, both in its munificence and in its wisdom." He recognizes that the welfare of the whole country is involved in the progress of the Negro race, and that, as Booker T. Washington said, a country which was not safe with ignorant slaves cannot be safe with ignorant freemen." "Mr. Rockefeller's most generous aid toward the completion of the $5,000,000 fund required to secure Mr. Eastman's gift is simply the latest and most striking evidence of his deep and sympathetic interest in the whole cause of Negro education and progress." Dr. Gregg dechard, "and is a much valued expression of his faith in the Hampton-Tuskegee type of training for life." White Student Now Admits His False Idea (Continued from Page One) "Not only so," he continued, "but I think we ought to do something about this matter. A great many people still think as I used to, just because they do not know. Let's go to work to get the facts over to them thus the press and otherwise." Another Crisis As Colored Buy In Brambleton (Continued from Page One) White Owners Want to Sell White Owners Want to Sell The white residents of Corpse avenue want to sell their property; and every piece on the street has been listed with the Brown Realty Company for sale. In spite of the fact, however, that there are no statutes or ordinances inhibiting the sale of the property to colored persons—and white persons will not but it—they are prevented from selling by such methods of intimidation as were employed Tuesday night, and which have been used on several previous occasions, when the city authorities have been called upon to act in order to avert a possible clash between the races in that section. Brambleton Frankleton is a section of Norfolk lying in the eastern part of the city and populated by "first settlers". Hundreds of families have moved away to more desirable white communities, but their houses remain unsold or vacant on account of the determination to deep colored persons the privilege of living in any part of the place.

Mr. Freeman replied: "I have received yours of March 3, with its inclusion from the News Leader in reference to the word "coon." I do not like the use of this word in the paper and understand thoroughly your objection to it. I have given instructions that hereafter the word "coon and the word "darkie" me eliminated. Nieces Fight Over Estate Of Race Centenariar Nieces Fight Over Estate Of Race Centenariar (Continued on Page Nine) O. Burgwin, city attorney, as referee in the matter. The plan is to sell the property and refund the two nieces the money advanced to the deceased and for services rendered him, the remainder to be equally divided between the two. Sarah Cox, a niece of Gause, holds a will giving her the property, but her claim was contested by Ella Hargrove, also a niece, who had in her possession a deed for the same property executed six days prior to the old man's death. Mrs. Cox contended the deed was executed while Gause was mentally incapable of knowing his own mind and asked that the deed be set aside. She contended that she had lived with Gause for a long period, ministering to his wants and taking care of him; that she advanced him money with which to pay taxes on the property and that she paid his doctor's bills and funeral expenses in consideration of this. Other Nice's Sue On the other hand, Mrs. Hargrove claimed that she had paid off the mortgage on the property and was out a of a considerable amount of money; that this money had been advanced for the settlement of claims with the understanding that she should receive the property. The compromise agreed on will refund to both, the money they have expended and will pay Mrs. Cox a reasonable sum for services rendered the old man. The rest will be divided between the two.

In many cases children who have been refused a license at one office in a state grew several years older in their trip to another license office a few miles away. Almost universally the affidavit of a parent is still regarded as the best proof of age in marriage license offices. The Sage Foundation's investigators, however, report many instances of parents swearing falsely as to the age of minor children seeking marriage licenses. The report cites cases in which marriage licenses were issued to 11 and 12 year old girls because their parents signed affidavits saying they were of legal age. Affidavits of parents are not conclusive proof of age, says the report, but when license issuers accept the evidence of brothers, cousins, other relatives, and friends they go even farther astray. Stricter on Auto-Licenses The report points out that in most states minors must present documentary proof of age to secure wroking papers, a license to drive an automobile or permission to travel abroad, but in no state is documentary proof of age required of youthful applicants for a marriage license. When primary evidence of age, such as birth certificates, baptismal certificates, or passports, are unobtainable the report suggests the following 16 forms of secondary documentary evidence of In the olden days folks used to say, "I've a misery in my back!"

After all of the advance bully hooing, it doesn't look like Dempsey will be get into the same ring with either one of the leading contenders for his title. Jack Kearns stated that it is impossible for his man to be in shape to meet either Wills or Gibbons before September. This nips a prospective championship scrap in the bud for quite a while in spite of the decision renamed by the New York State Boxing Commission less than a forty-night ago. From Kearns' actions and statements, the boxing commission is nothing but a joke as a good number of us undoubtedly believed. Dempsey and his manager seem to be juggling the heavy-weight crown as they please and don't give a rap about what the boxing heads say or do. It is plainly seen that the "commish" has no more jurisdiction over the big one in sport than 1, and you know how much that is. Kearns told the commission right to their homely mugs what was what, who was who, why and then some. And that's why the present-day world champions hold their titles so long, especially in the heavyweight division. Seemingly the heavies have always done as they please. Now, the question is why can a champion dictate to a body that is placed to control a certain sport? No attempt will be made to answer that query in order to move on to other things. In order to become the most logical contender for any honor, an aspirant must remove all obstacles placed before him thus eliminating all shadow of doubt that he is the one man. This Wills has done and he is qualified, honu fide and still more besides. Both Wills and Gibbons are running neck and neck and out of fairness to both men, why not let them settle it between themselves. Wills doesn't think he should have to fight Gibbons or any other man before he gets his go with Dempsey and Gibbons doesn't think he should have to fight Wills or any other man before he gets his tilt with William Harrison and they both are right. They have qualified. Every question has two sides just like every lane has its ash can. Since both men are logical contenders and are running neck and neck in the heavyweight race, why not tumble them both into the same bag and the first man out takes a wallop at Dempsey's made over nose. THAT'S FAIR! And they ought to be willing to work it out that way. It means more money if nothing else.

It was something worse than that for Kid Norfolk, colored light heavyweight champion of the world. Norfolk was etherized by Fighting Bob Lawson, of Alabama, in the first stanza of their scheduled 12-round affair at the Commonwealth Sporting Club last Saturday night. Scenically the old saying, "When it rains, it pours" ran true to form on that occasion. Norfolk started slipping when he met defeat at the hands of Tommy Gibbons not so very long ago in Madison Square Garden. Lawson is just a beginner, comparatively spankin, but he's been knocking 'em silly since he's under the wing of Walk Miller, director of affairs of Tiger Flowers. Wonder does Lawson realize his feat last Saturday night crowns him light heavyweight champion of all the colored folks in this whole wide world and they're no few in number either, and what I mean, the affair only lasted two minutes and five seconds. From indications, this Mons. Lawson is a leather pushing fool. It did take Gibbons longer than a few ticks of the timer's watch to send Norfolk to the land where the church rings and the little birdies chirp their souffle melodies. This speaks well for Fighting Bob and Walk Miller. Miller says his specialty is handling colored fighters and he sure is finding some good ones. If Lawson keeps coming like he started and Flowers gets a little more iron in his jaw, Miller will have the best stable of first class scrappers obtainable. And by the way, I almost forgot. Say! what do you think of this ham Kearns coming forth with a suggestion that no more than fifty thousand grand ought to be paid the challenger when this bozo Dempsey goes into action. He's basing his argument on the fact that Dempsey only got $27,500 for taking the title from the laziest man that ever held the heavyweight crown, Jess Willard—and what's that you say, why lazy. Just because he lost his title sitting down; and if that isn't the height of indolence, please show me different. Well that's Messrs. Kearn's and Dempsey's hard luck for not getting any more than that. The grounds on which Kearns bases his arguments lack strength. That was Dempsey getting $27,500 and that was back in 1919 and that was some five or six years ago but "Oh di my!" how THE NEGRO DYNASTY OF ZONEVILLE S. O. S.

MARYLAND CHAP KNOCKED OUT BY NEW SENSATION Right To The Jaw Spells Disaster For the Baltimore Kid; End Came After Two Minutes and Five Seconds. (Special to the Journal and Guide.) New York, March 19—Fighting Bob Lawson, of Alabama knocked out Kid Norfolk, of Baltimore colored light heavyweight champion of the world in two minutes and five seconds in the first round of their scheduled 12-round match at the Commonwealth Club Saturday night of last week. Almost before the sound of the gong starting the first frame had died away Lawson ripped a right hand to the Commonwealth's jaw, which sent the Kid Norfolk to gain his erect attitude before the final ten sounded, but he fell back and was counted out by the referee. 75 HAMPTONIANS REPORTFORTRACK AND BASEBALL By P. BERNARD YOUNG. JR. Hampton, Va., March 16—With a basketball championship successfully tucked away, the Hampton Institute men are turning to the Spring sports in preparation for a strenuous season of baseball and basketball, particularly the season opened a few days ago when Cohc Gideon E. Smith sent out the call for candidates in both sports. At this time forty baseball and thirty-five track aspirants signified their intention of competing for positions. Hampton's active preparations for the coming season, however, did not start until this week, when all members were called outdoors. When the full cohort those who will participate in both track and baseball answers the call, the number is expected to increase materially. Will Attempt To Recapture Championship With its annual championship tark and field meet scheduled for May 16; with invitations received from the Penn Relays and Drake Relays; with its first baseball encounter to be staged on April 18; Hampton expects, once active training goes on, that for both truck and baseball, and also tennis, will rapidly round into winning form. Efforts are to be made to recapture the track and field championship and especially to bolster the diamond squad. In the National pastime Hampton has not been particularly good, and his year in producing a team which will at least finish in the first division. In track the prospects are especially bright. Hampton's greatest loss in track is in hurdles. William D. Williams, Ernest L. Simmons, and W. Warrick Cardozo, who finished in that order in the high hurdles, other graduate of the University, and several prospects loom up as possible winners in these events, and with the return of William McKinley King, who set the record in the 220-yard hurdles in 1923, Hampton will be a formidable contender in the 1925 meet her. In the track events Hampton has always made creditable showings, but in contests, except for four events, Hampton has been unfortunate. Capt, Robert A. Coles, Jr., of the track squad, a brilliant distance runner and record-holder, expects another championship squad this year, and in conjunction with the coaches is planning an intensive program for the winged-foot athletes. Several new faces appear among these, all of whom have given indications of stellar per- NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE PAPA FIGURE! I HAVE ADATE WITH MR. PLEN- Y-DOUGH TO-NIGHT! HE IS 7:30 7:15 RFOLK D formances. Within a few weeks more can be said of these men and the veterans. Baseball Positions to Be Filled With baseball the situation presents more perplexing problems to the coaches for exactly seven positions which veterans filled last season must be refilled this season with new material. Capt. B. B. Jacobs is unable to play, due to a recent leg operation, and Edward Hargrove is centering his activities in track. With Hargrove working on track and Ruffin now a graduate, Hampton is deprived of two of her best boxen of last season. Shortstop is open, because Jacobs is out; the catching position, the left field, second base, center third base, and the beating position must now be filled. This is quite a task, but in the weeks that remain the many enthusiastic and performant candidates will be put through rigorous practices. A strong nine is due to follow the process. The signs point to a successful culmination of the present term's athletic activities. Track has the material for another championship team, and with the added incentive of trips to two of the greatest relays, Penn and Drake, it is expected that this branch of the Spring sport will enjoy a successful season. Penn has taken several interest and with several formidable candidates for the team, a good team will probably be sent to the intercollegiate tournament. Baseball will have a good year, if practices and determination will help at all. Union Quint Beats St.Paul BY CHESTER L. WASHINGTON Richmond, Va., March 29—Upon closed her collegiate basketball season last Saturday night at Johnson's Hall by defeating the St. Paul quintet in an exciting game by the score of 39 to 28.

Harry Boffman are working hard with the material on hand to wield together a strong baseball team which will meet hard opposition this year. Many of the veterans are on hand as well as several promising outfielders are showing up well. The batteries appear to be strong and the outfielders cavort in the outfield in a promising manner. BOOKERSPREPARE FOR SEASON OF PILLSWATTING BOOKERSPREPARE FOR SEASON OF PILLSWATTING The Scrapping Bookers baseball squad has taken to the fields in preparation for the fast approaching season and a large number of candidates are on hand to contest for berths on the regular nine. Coach Wilson expects to have his charges rounded in form by the time the first game is staged. The Scrapping Bookers made a good record last Spring and the team will make a strong bid to repeat this season. The scheduled will be announced at a later date.

BOYS'STUNT NITE SCORES HIT WITH LARGE AUDIENCE BOYS'STUNT NITE SCORES HIT WITH LARGE AUDIENCE BY WILEY A. JOHNSON Boy's Stunt Nite held in the auditorium of Booker Washington High School Friday night of last week scored a hit with the capacity audience, which was kept in hilarious uproar from going to gong over the comical comedians displayed by an array of rollers, laugh drawing, honest-to-goodness funny comedians, which included some of the best local talent in the cschool. The program was well balanced and peppy throughout the entire force and each participant played his part with the composure and earnestness that would do justice to the theatrical. Elongated Bernard of tatredom. Elongated Bernard Smith took the crowd by storm with his parts. He has the car marks of the natural born comedian. Smith, together with John Bush gave on interpretation of a scene presented by Milton Glaser in their show, "Wild" at the academy of music during the stunt was done with as much ease, grace and comedy as the seasoned theatrical ones themselves did. Every boy was specially costumed for his part, which added to the success of the affair. Tynes, champion female impersonator of the school brought the audience to its feet with his interpretation of a hard-hearted "stove pipe blonde" giving her erring spouse the high hat, but quickly softens and came to tears when her boy did begin singing. He did not Do Me Like You Do." Sykes also impertoriously opposed the opposite sex had to answer an encore to his number. Charles, Jones, dressed in the garb of the lounge lizard sang, "Sally." The acrobatic stunt by Matthews was one of the best numbers on the program. Matthews performed his part with the ease of an old timer in the game and he received car rending applause. A eight boy stunt was staked by eight boys with the tactics with skill. Boxing and wrestling was also featured and what was considered one of the best fistic affairs on the card was covered by Kollege Kid and will be found in another column in these pages. The Boy's Stunt Nite was for the benefit of the piano fund. Every available seat in the house was taken and a majority of the standing room. The entire program was under the direction of Prof. W. C. Fulford, who is well versed in staging such events. KOLLEGE KID SAYS-- The onlies reason sum Folks anit a bigger fool, Cause they aint a Bigger person and that's that. I was ask by this baby, Johnson what slings ink at this hear office I was ask by the what sips ink at sum times to cover the fight at the boys stunt nite at the Booker Washingtown hi school the other nite. Well, this was assigned to cover the rest of the event and in the meantime he was on the program an he wants me to cover the part that he feature in with another bimbo strutting the non-de-plume of Kyro Wilson. To tell you all the truth, this bout was just a little better than the rest of the boxing fracases on the card, only because these ham leather pushers did not mind showing they stuff a little. The wild mleee went three paneful rounds without either man kissing the canvass or markable the canvass. Sombody shows a glove under this baby Johnson's and he's under the impression that he can box a little bit. This guy Wilson is one of the toughest that ever cut outa a beiler factory an he didnt not mind swapping wall-pops with Johnson, which he got in a pair of good ones besides the dome that shook this ink A man in a hat smoking a pipe. slinging newspaper man an another to the ribs.

Oh yez, they mixed them fast and furious to the delight of the audience an I don't know wich ways the honors was divided, cause it took all my time to follow up the blows as they was passed frum one to the other. But anyways, the referee gives the decision to this Kyro and sum of the fans gives 'im the razzberber, what I they put it up strong too.

JUNIOR HI DROPS FIRST CAGE GAME JUNIOR HI DROPS FIRST CAGE GAME Booker Washington Junior High School quintet dropped its first game of the season to Whittier of Hampton in the Hampton Institute Gym Thursday of last week by a 26-10 score. Anderson showed up best for the local Juniors, scoring six of the ten points made by the Norfolk aggregation. This game was the first of the season for the juniors and all the players did well and show prospects of becoming good cagers in the future. Mr. F. J. Chesson, a "grad" of Howard and a former teacher at Booker T. Washington High School of Suffolk, has charge of the athletic activities of the junior HI department of the local school. Mr. Chesson is also contemplating having a baseball team to represent the junior department of the school and practice is scheduled to get underway some time this week. The basketball team will play Whittier in a return engagement in Norfolk, the date to be announced later. Audience Praise "Dust of the Earth" Petersburg, Va.,—All who witnessed the drama, "The Dust of the Earth," presented by the JunNormal class of the Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute, on Saturday under the direction of Mel RoA. Butler of the Education Department, are loud in singing the praise of the play. The principal characters were Misses Virginia Mayo, Ethel Sample, Mabelle Taylor, Elmora Brown, and Messrs. Charles Amuels, Leroy Poindexter, Donatella Dana, Charles Saunders, Harold Chambers, and David Wildy. The plot appealed to the audience; it was modern and moved rapidly. Humor and pathos mingled effectively throughout the play. The acting was exceptionally good for amateurs; Misses May, Sample, and Taylor had the air of professionals.

JOHNSON American Legion Post, No. 111, of Portsmouth will stage a smoker tuesday, May 11th at the itteatre. Effingham street with an array of local fistic talent on the card. This boxing card holds prospects of being one of the best staged by the Legion in many moons. On the program are the following scappers: Tommy Butler, former 145 pound champion of a U. S. submarine and Six Second Faison, of Norfolk for four rounds; Kyro Wilson, 138 pounds, former student of Booker Washington High School and football letter man against Johnson bantam and featherweight champion of Shawna of Norcom High School and Kid Lasses, of Booker Washington, four rounds, and in the semi-final match, Russell "Kid Wilson, of Norfolk will do his stuff against Kid Williams for six rounds. The final bout will be between Battling Fred Porter, lightweight champion of Portsmouth and Battling Joe Sappson, strutting the same title in Norfolk. This affair is scheduled to go six rounds and a fast and furious bout is expected. Sappson is a hard hitter and a fast steeper squared cheeked fighter. The opponent is more tough with the padded mitts. Both Porter and Sappson have held their own against some good men and the bringing together of these two men is a good enough card in itself. They are heralded to be the best local amateurs in their weights. Kid Lasses is doped to have the edge on Snowden, the Portsmouth school lad. Lasses packs a kick in both mitts and rarely fails to carry them home.

Church Admission 50 Cents GALLERY RESERVED For School Children PAGE SIX WORLD'S SOCIETY MAN COMPARED TO 'UNJUST STEWARD' Bank Street Church was filled to the utmost capacity Sunday morning by a congregation assembled to bear the first of a series of the sermons being delivered by Rev. C. M. Long, the pastor. What is known as "The World's Society Man" of today was portrayed in colors at the hands of the speaker which left a lasting impression upon the minds of his hearers. Rev. Long compared the world's society man to the "unjust steward", who was too proud to beg and who could not or would not dig when he felt that he was soon to lose his position because of his dishonesty toward his employer. The need for every young man to be trained to work at some trade or occupation as a means of sustenance was emphasized as vital in the development of a strong, healthy, moral character. If this is done, stealing, often the result of a false pride, vice tishing in all forms, forms, and positions to a minimum and society purged of the dross which keeps it ever down. The sermon was delivered with Rev. Long's characteristic eloquence and long of fondness of thought in his hearers a wave of spiritual enthusiasm This was the first of a series of such sermons the pastor is scheduled to preach and undoubtedly have the greatest church goers. Next Sunday the sermon topic will be "The Christian's Expectation." GARRETT'S TEMPLE Sunday school here was featured with the largest attendance for the year last Sunday. The school chair was out in full and sang some melodious m u s i c. The offering banners were awarded as follows: Adult Department, No. 1; Intermediate Department, No. 3; Primary Department, No. 2. The scholars were proud to see oldest member of the church present in Sunday school. He is "Father" Hillard Johnson. A large congregation was out at church services at 11:30 o'clock to hear Rev. W. I. Rowan preach from Luke 11:6. The Epworth League was well attended. MT. OLIVE BAPTIST CHURCH At the morning hour Rev. Johnson preached a thrilling sermon from Jer. 12:5. At 3:30 p. m. the women of the church, under the auspices of the Missionary Circle, held a special service. The choir and congregation of the first Baptist Church, Lambert's Point, were in attendance and rendered special service. The sermon was preached by Rev. McDonald and the music rendered by the choir was sung at 3:30 o'clock, the pastor preached a very touching sermon after which reports were received on the new building fund. The amount collected was very substantial and by special request the pastor extended the time one week. The plans and specifications for the new building have been completed and materials are being assembled for the construction. The Willing Workers held a very lively session at the residence of Mrs. Bessie Ransome, Pollard St. The ladies are busying them helpful presentations for general uplift All present were served to a very toothsome repast at the close of the business session. The Ladies Aid Society met in regular session at the residence of Mrs. Vennie Nettles, Middle St. A large number of the ladies were present and new members were re-entrusted. The needlecraft were in evidence, and all enjoyed immensely the repast as served by Mrs. Nettles. METROPOLTAN A. M. E. ZION CHURCH Large numbers were out to Sunday school, among them many visitors. Five new members joined. The presiding elder, Dr. Lyons preached at the morning and evening services. His discourses were inspiring and helpful. At 3:30 p. m., Rev. Long delivered an address at the Men's meeting. His subject was, "Method." Many fine points were brought out. Sunday, March 22, at the evening hour, Rev. W. H. Manuel, of Salisbury, Md. will preach. It is hoped that a large crowd will turn out to hear this interesting speaker. ALLEN A. M. E. CHAPEL Women's Day was observed at this church Sunday, and women had full charge of the services.

Gray The church had gone through a great crisis prior to his coming, and although the officers and members were enhanced with property, talent brain and finance, yet, because of the falling away of membership the officers and members coaured. But when this minister began to portray their ability character, talent and real worth they took on new courage and as a result this year's work has excelled the previous year's in many respects. The church property has been improved to the value of $2 000, plus the former value. Electric lights with beautiful chantlers have been installed in the parsonage. It also has been painted inside and out, making it very beautiful. A nice concrete bulkhead has been built around the property. The pastor, officers and members are looking forward to the installation of a nice two man pipe organ in the church. The church is in a fine condition and the churches are illuminated with the holy spirit; the pulpit is on fire with eloquence and argument, and the membership is spiritualized. The pastor is happy to pastor, this parish, and the members are happy to have him in their midst. At the head of the Sunday school is one of the finest churchmen in Virginia, a man of business, yet he does not allow anything to come before his church. Mr. W. F. Shivers, the energetic superintendent, has done many wonderful things for this community. For example, he took the initiative in beautifying the church property with the concrete bulkhead. The pastor prizes the Sunday school as being second to none in the State. The two A. C. E. Leagues organized by the pastor are in the channel to success. Two live-wires are serving as presidents. They are Mrs. Norm Wrenn and Miss Carrie Almond, the former heading the senior league and the latter the junior league. Mrs. Wrenn is loyal to the cause and is demonstrating her literary and musical ability by making this newly organized society hum. Miss Almond is also an active worker. No night is too dark, nor weather too hot or cold for her to find her way to the league meeting. The other older organizations are making progress. Last Sunday was Men's Day and the reports were indeed encouraging. The fourth Sunday will be Woman's Day. Follow these observances the reports will be getting ready. The pastor is now getting ready for the annual conference, which convenes in Eastville Anni 15 FIRST CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH Beginning with the early morning prayer meeting—through the Sunday school, and the regular services, the Holy Spirit was manifested.

Jones, pastor of Mt. Hermon Baptist Church, delivered a most practical, and inspiring message, using as his subject, "Happy on the Journey Home." The speaker chose as his text, Acts 8:39. He gave a most beautiful introduction in the discussion of this text referring to Eunuch and his conversion. He emphasized that this man was happy on the Sunday school. What he had seen. 1. What he had heard. 2. What he had seen. 3. What he had felt. Dr. Jones made a strong appeal in his closing remarks to the large congregation to be happy, and travel on in the good old fashion way.

P. Church A large and appreciative audience was present to hear Atty. V. C. Hodges, at the morning service of the First United Presbyterian Church last Sabbath. After a devotional service of great fervor, conducted by the pastor, the speaker was introduced in a few well chosen words and thoughts by the pastor, pointing out the fitness of having Atty. Hodges to speak from this pulpit and in this place, because of the fact that the young man's religious training and many of his ideals were imbibed in the very surroundings of this church. He referred to Atty, Hodges in entering the ministry as turning from a profession that held promise for material gain and honor. That nothin could prompt such a step in a young man save the promptings of the Holy Spirit. Romans 1:16, "For I am good ashamed of the Gospel of Christ that is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth unto the Jew first and also to the Greek," was the text the young minister used for the basis of his discourse. The sermon was a strong, forceful and eloquent presentation of the power of the Gospel to save men who believed it, from sin. The manner of the preacher was natural, earnest, persuasive, fervent. His style was simple and clear to the point, often present would understand and follow his line of thought. He carried his audience with him to the last word. Dr. D. W. Byrd, at the conclusion of the sermon, led the congregation in prayer, asking for increasing power for the preacher. The Cross Puzzle Social held at Mrs. J. E. Diggs' beautiful home last Friday evening, under the auspices of the Women's Circle, was a very delightful affair, and very successful from a financial point of view.

"Hard Facts," Is Sermon Topic "Hard Facts," is the subject announced for a special address to men only at the First Baptist Church this Sunday afternoon. The pastor, Rev. Richard Bowling, who is to deliver the address, spoke a few months ago to an audience of women that taxed the capacity of his church. Ever since that meeting there has been insistent demand that there be held a similar meeting for men. This Sunday afternoon's service is in response to these requests. There will be good singing provided by a male quartette and by a large male chorus. No women or boys will be allowed. It is to be a meeting strictly for men and dealing with men's problems. The Ushers and the Harvest League of the church are sponsoring the service. SAYS CHARACTER AND TRAINING ARE NEEDED IN BUSINESS "Stick to your bush," Strike out along some one line endeavor, and aim to be the best in your line," was the advice given to those in business and industry by the pastor of the First Baptist Church last Sunday morning. Using as a text the words of Paul, This one thing I do, Rev. Bowling declared, "There is need in our life for what the Germans call sammlung, specialization, concentration. It is the focusing of one's powers, putting the whole of one's life in the doing of some one thing. This is exemplified in the modern college where hundreds are looking to graduation each year but from different courses. They will all be classmates, they have never met in class. They were pursuing each one his speciality. This specialization in college needs to be taken out into life. Easy Profits "Take the case of business and industry. There are so many inviting fields in which there is prospect of large and easy profits for the business man. Starting out well in one business, he sees how he can use his credit and make money fast in still another at the same time. And if his friends attempt to dissuade him, he points convincingly to the examples of such men as Ford and Rockefeller, the men who own the steeamship lines and banks, as well as directed original corporations which started them on the road to wealth? All this has proved a snare to many a man. The heads of great interlocking corporations are not Jacks-of-all trades"as supposed. Gamblers' Chances Gamblers' Chances Exceptions there are, of course. But the men who, who have not grown wealthy by taking gamblers' chances, but by steady application of themselves to their work, have been men of one speciality. Their so-called sidelines have been directly contributory to their main business. Besides they have commanded digital secreta the services of capable executives to run these sidelines. "What the average 'plunger' needs to learn is that it takes more than catchy 'ads', stock sales, and correct theories to run a business. It calls for skill, and that is not acquired overnight. It is the boast of a certain big man who has spent a lifetime making men's fine shoes." H o w foolish the notion that we can open up a store, start an undertaking establishment, or found an insurance company, on credit. Then hire a 'green' youngster just out of school. Then be forever busy depositing our profits at the bank. Character Skill "And never fear that it takes even more than skill. It takes character to run a business successfully. The character of man looking forward to advancement cannot be developed by absence presidents of corporations or owners of enterprises. Somebody must be with them continually, watching not only to see that they put in full time, but that they develop good habits, that they get and keep the right outlook on life. The bank teller who will spend his nights at a gambling table will eventually begin stealing from his employer. The employee that openly engages the employee will secretly off all moral侵触s. "Your business is not a more money-maker. It is an investment of life, a means of decent livelihood, and an opportunity to develop in others the brains and truthworthiness you possess." Second Calvary Winner In Debate The debate and literary contest between the deacons of Second Calvary and the First Baptist Churches was a grand success. The priming of the quartettes was held in the opinion of many as being a tie. The oration, recitation and solo went to the First Baptist. The debate—Resolved: That A Married Man Should Tell His Wife All Of His Secrets," went to Second Calvary, due largely to the forceful manner in which Deacon George Wilson presented the argument for the negative in closing the question. BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH HAMPTON VA. Hampton, Vn.-Sunday was observed as Men's Day at this church. All services were well attended.

The first debate of the series was held Friday evening, March 6, from 7:15 to 9:00. Prof. L. Virgil Williams was master of ceremonies. The query was: "Resolved, That Farming With Animals Is More Profitable Than Farming With Plants". The supporters of the affirmative were: Messrs. Vernon and James, the third-year members of the third-year class; of the negative, Messrs. Thomas Bynum and Chauney Mitchell, members of the second-year class. After much discussion and laughter, the negative thoroughly convinced the three judges that "farming with plants is the more profitable."

Louise Wright, his sweetheart, was arrested later and is in jail charged with the murder. The police were also notified of the affair at once and officers were dispatched to the scene. They had the wounded man transferred to the Good Samaritan Hospital, where he died only a few minutes after being taken there. Detectives Moser, Blake, West and Pittman made an intensive search of the city when they found the woman reported to them to have stabbed Rutherford had left the scene a moment after the row. They found her later at the home of her aunt at Hoskin. For some time she had been in the employ of Mrs. J. M. McLeod, 124 East Morehead street. Evidence collected by the officers tended to show that Rutherford and Miss Wright were in a restaurant at Mint and Hill St., when a quarrel took place between them. Rutherford walked out and was about to step into an automobile when Miss Wright stabbed him in the back with a pen knife, the blade reaching his heart. Cumberland, Va. media Russell and Mrs. U. S.

Mar 19—At a gen- eral assembly of students and workers recently hd at Hampton Institute, H. O, Sargent of the Federal Board for Vocational Ed- ueation emphasized the need in Southern colleges of technically trained teachers in agriculture, home economics, and trades. He explained the various ucts which had beedMpassed by Congress from time to time granting appropria- tions for vocational.education and said that so far as the Smith Le- ver and the Smith Hughes Acts are concerned the Government gives money to a state on a dollar for dollar basis. Thirteen Southern states have teacher training institutions where vocational education is taught, and there is a great necd in these states for teachers of agriculture, home economics, and trades. Under the Smith-Lever and the Smith. Hughes Acts positions are offered for twelve months of the year, not as is usually the case with cducatianal positions for nine months, or eight or less. He ex- plained the work of the farm-and home-demonstration agents in car- rying scientific agricultural meth- oils to the farm and scientific home- making and labor-saving devices to the home, He referred to the ravages of the boll-weevil in the Southern states and the immense losses sus- tained by cotton growers, and the need of farm-demonstration agents who will go out into the rural com- munities and show the farmers how to combat this pest.

In fact, they live haphazardly, and even fail to get the full benefit of their small incomes. The budget system will correct this condition wherever it is adopted, if the family will simply add to its use a little common sense, this committee member explained. A budget can become so fixed in one's mind that without referring to any figures that person will always know fully well just what he can afford to spend for everything he must use. Wherever the principle of balancing the income and outgo is violated, embarrassment, humiliation and sometimes even worse things are certain to follow. There need not be any thing complicated or horrsome about a budget, he explained. It is merely a matter of knowing just what one has at his disposal to spend and the things that the family require. Just allow a certain amount of the available funds for each requirement according to its relative importance, and you unconsciously adopt a budget. Better, of course, is to keep written records on this matter. They are good for future reference and readily point to where one is drifting in his financial affairs. The Hope of the Merchants The merchants and business firms participating in Trade Week are men who possess just pride in their community. They are making every effort to contribute their share to economic progress and so- lidity of the people in Norfolk. They desire to become better ma- quainted with the buying public during Trade Week, and cordially invite inspection of their estab- lishments. Most of them have extra preparations to supply the pub- lice with goods in their line at lower prices, just as an introductory offer. In the list of participants are dealers who sell practically every- thing needed and from them during the next week. Customers may obtain anything they would ordinarily have to purchase anyhow. TIDEWATER AUTO CO. ROLLING THE M OUT Pioneers in the Repair Business In This City and Continually Adding Customers. The Tidewater Auto Repair Co., 640-42 Chapel street, V. R. Skeeter, proprietor, is a pioneer in the auto repair trade in Norfolk. Mr. Skeeter and his efficient mechanics have been "rolling 'em out" continuously for a number of years. He remarks, "The auto repair business is one in which nothing but service will win. It is very easy for the autoists to determine just when and where he is getting that. Nobody will ever crary an automobile repair job to a place where they have at one time or the other obtained poor service, therefore, we are compelled to make sure the job is done right, if we are to stay in business." The Tidewater Auto Repair Company has a steady patronage and practically every month adds to this. It is because their jobs stand up on the roads under all sorts of conditions, says the proprietor, Mr. Skeeter advises for economy sake, that auto owners bring in their machines for an overhauling before beginning their spring jaunts. --- --- continued from Page One) mothers reduced to paupers children become the wards of y, all of which might accu- be traced to the thought- of the father and husband properly insuring himself lived. on there is the sick and acci- death insurance, which prac- ce every member in the fam- mion have at an insignificant Often, it is related, this of protection has proved a over, because from the benefi- the, the disabled have been to procure the proper event.

Mr. Macklin sells Horn's ice cream, and everything else of a superior quality that is generally found in a place like his. "Doing business on the square," he accepts as his motto. It is a motto that has won for him friends and is building his business. GOOD SERVICE MAKES THIS BUSINESS GROW Captain George W. Wilson Says Special Attention to Ladies and Children. "Special attention to ladies and children and the best of service to all," is what Captain George W. Wilson, proprietor of the confectionery shop at 840 Olney road, attributes his success to. Captain Wilson opened his place a little more than a year ago under very modest auspices. Anyone who has kept an eye on the establishment will agree that it has made creditable progress. His line is first class in every particular and is complete enough to satisfy anybody's thirst for cold drinks, or appetite for confections. Weekly newspapers are sold at the place. Captain Wilson is conducting a growing business, and he says service is what makes it grow. SAYS CHEAP LABOR IS HIGHEST-PRIGED SAYS CHEAP LABOR IS HIGHEST-PRIGED B. H. Alston Suggests How Automobile Owners May Operate Cars Economically. For auto and tire service Alston Rubber Company at 1841 Church street, ranks with the leaders. Mr. Alston has been "doctoring" tires and automobiles in Norfolk for a period almost as long as the life of the industry. His reputation is built on service and grows on service. Mr. Alston says a wise person goes to a doctor at regular intervals for an overhauling of his physical machinery, and a wise motorist drives his car into the repair shop for a mechanical overhauling before it has to be towed in. The latter is so much the cheaper, he says, and particularly so when expert service can be obtained at such reasonable prices as prevail at his place. Automobiles are expensive, asbest. Mr. Alston states, and they are really a burden to the owner who allows inexperienced mechanics to tinker with his car. This owner will eventually pay the price of a good job, whether he gets it or not. The Alston Rubber Company invites the motorist in.

When a really broker exercises the very highest regard, not only for the legal but for the moral rights as well, of his client, he be in the market to sell or to buy property, and executes a transaction that benefits all concerned, that broker has performed a service to the community. Mr. Brown thinks Brown Realty Company has offerings of good homes for sale in all sections of the city and particularly in the high school section. Possession of some of these homes can be had upon a payment as low as $100.00, the balance like rent. And this company, states Mr. Brown stands ready to carefully supervise every detail connected with the transfer. Advice will be given even to those who are not now prepared to buy or build, but feel interested in owning a home some day. RICKS TELLS HOW HE FIRST LOST MONEY RICKS TELLS HOW HE FIRST LOST MONEY Now Has One of the Finest Show Rooms in the City and Bears An A-1 Reputation. Rick's, the cleaner, at 368 E. Brambleton avenue, affords one of the best examples in the city of how grit, perseverance, determination, coupled with good service will build any sort of business. Mr. Ricks often relates how he lost money in the cleaning and pressing business for seven years. His service was good, even then, he says. He was doing the work as well as the best of them. But something was wrong, somewhere. He decided to renovate, but at first to renovate Ricks himself. That is, get a new perspective on what he was trying to do. He took a new grip on courage, a bull dog grip; moved into his present quarters on Brambleton avenue. This building was then considered a mighty big one for his sort of business. He began to hustle, and hustle and hustle some more; employed none but expert workmen; made up a list of very reasonable prices, and kept banging away at the job before him. Mr. Ricks now has one of the finest show rooms in town for the cleaning and pressing and dyeing business and an up-to-date delivery Staple and Fancy Groceries Fresh Meats - Vegetables Fruits - Cigars - Tobaccos SPECIAL LINE OF GARDEN AND FLOWER SEEDS 918 BERKLEY AVENUE Recently he made an inspection tour of a number of the most modern cleaning and dyeing shops in the North, thus adding to his store of knowledge as a Cleaner.

Some months ago the durg store at the corner of Queen and Cumberland streets, familiarly known for a number of years as Watt's, was acquired by a group of local business men, remodelled, restocked and named the People's Drug Store. At present it is one of the leading stores of its kind in the city and is in charge of two registered pharmacists, Dr. Davenport and Dr. Stovel. Both of these men have had years of experience in the compounding of prescriptions, Dr. Davenport having operated Davenport's Drug Store on Princess Anne avenue, ever since a few years following his graduation. Aside from its sale of delicious soda waters, fine candies, leading brands of cigars and tobacco, the People's Drug Store manufactures a product called No-O-Do. It is recommended for disagreeable body odors. During the few months the store has been under new management it has made a substantial growth in prestige, and now has a very large patronage. Its prescriptions are prepared under expert skill, and a most inviting service is always in evidence from behind the counters. The place is well lighted, airy, sanitary and in appearance is as fine equipped drug store as there is uptown. said Texas had lost the key to his establishment, and therefore could not close up.

In another column of this paper is printed the annual statement of the Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc., for the year ending December 31, 1924. It is the statement as referred to in the Journal and Guide of last week that reveals the Southern Aid as one of the strongest enterprises operated by colored people anywhere. The Norfolk District office, which is in charge of Mr. S. B. Noble, has contributed impressively to the remarkable strength of the Society. Last year it made the greatest increase in production in its history and closed the twelve-month period with every sick and death claim paid up to date. Twenty-one agents, 3 assistant superintendents and 3 clerks make up the Southern Aid force in the city proper and Berkley ward. They are a most progressive group of young men and women, and aside from their life vocation of placing iron-clad protection against sicknes, accident and death on members of their race, find time to participate in movements looking to the betterment of the community. Mr. Noble, the District Manager, lends heartily his cooperation in the fostering of every enterprise instituted here having for its object the economic and civic improvement of local citizens, and encourages and inspires his staff in doing likewise. In this respect the home office stands solidly behind the local force, lending at all times sincere cooperation. For this reason the Southern Aid Society is not only a financial gibbler of the race, insuring its people, saving homes and property, affording dignified employment to hundreds of young men and women, but actually wields a powerful influence for unbuilding in every community where it has a branch office, particularly has this been the case with Norfolk.

REPAIRSTIRES THAT STAY REPAIRED Munson Hardware and Rubber Company at 909 East Princess Anne road, specializes in tire vulcanizing, repairing and the sale of used tires.

This firm also carries a line of hardware, including nails, stoves, nuts, bolts, screws, etc. It is a pioneer in the uptown section and gives promise of sticking to it and enjoying substantial growth.

The only race firm in Norfolk writing fire, automobile and plate hass insurance is the Rich, Strong, Brooks Company in the Metropolitan Bank building. Coming on the field less than two years ago the firm has progressed marvelously. Besides underwriting insurance risks, the company deals intensively in real estate and in- estimates. Mr. W. T. Mason is the progressive secretary of the concern and has succeeded in underwriting some highly valuable risks in this section. It is a growing concern, pushed by a group of progressive and aggressive business men. In the property development of this section the Rich Strong, Brooks company is taking a considerable art. They are ardent advocates of the better class of home for the masses and have erected some high class apartments here since beginning operations. This firm is able to place insurance in any company the beneficiary may desire having it placed and is in a position to give service equal to that given by any insurance underwriters in this city.

HIS DRUG STORY IS PROGRESSIVE HIS DRUG STORY IS PROGRESSIVE outhall Bass Has The Stock and Equipment to Fill Any Doctor's Prescription. The proper filling of prescrip- sions is an exact science. On it it seven depends the life of an individual. Even the best knowledge and skill of the physician goes to night, unless the prescriphetherifies falls into the hands of a competent druggist; and a drugist who is not only competent, but as a high moral consideration for his responsibility resting upon him, To the above principle, theouthall Bass Drug Store store deeply subscribes, says Dr. Bass. With a complete stock of full length drugs, best quality sums, he states that his store is in position to properly fill any doctor's prescriptions. Dr. Bass has been in the drug business in Norfolk for a number of years, being himself a graduate and registered pharmacist. His here is handsomely equipped and a genuine credit to the community. Everything is sold there that is usually found in all high drug shops. Toilet articles, bis and confections are included this line, and the soda fountain is greatly to the attractiveness of Grand Cafe Serves Home Cooked Meals home cooking in reality as well name has built this cafe's popu- rity.

His establishment is well stocked with stove parts of all sorts, including about 1000 grates. city, and an abundance of knowledge concerning the job before him. It is said Mr. Davis' business would rapidly become the largest of its kind in the city if he would just allow it to naturally expand by hiring a number of expert workmen and advertising extensively. But he wants to make sure that what he does is done right and for that reason personally supervise his jobs. Any kind of sheet metal work comes in his line and his services are said to always prove satisfactory. There is no need of having dilapidated stoves when it is so easy to get Mr. Davis by ringing phone 195-W. THE METROPOLITAN BANK GROWS YEARLY Increase In Deposits And General Usefulness Evidenced Each Succeeding Year. The Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company, Norfolk's old reliable financial institution, continues its steady growth. In the business aspirations of the people of this vicinity, it is a source of strength. It has served the community well in every capacity in which a bank might be expected to function, but how it has served to inspire and influence for good is immeasurable. Last year the Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company had the second largest Christmas Savings account of the banks of Norfolk and Portsmouth, and the deposits to this account so far this year indicate that the Metropolitan will pay out another huge sum to Christmas savers next December. Its regular deposits have shown a significant increase each succeeding year, and every phase of its operations has enjoyed wonderful expansion. In national rating this bank is always referred to as one of the race's largest and strongest financial institutions. The officers and staff of the bank are ardent advocates of community progress, and are always found lined up with the forests making towards general uplift of the people. STANDARD BARBER SHOP IS THE FINEST The Standard Shaving Parlor, 682 E. Brambleton avenue, is Norfolk's premier barber shop. It might be rightly referred to as a down town shop in the uptown section. Messrs. John H. Boone and Joseph A. Jones are the proprietors. This is the finest equipped shaving emporium catering to colored patronage in the city. Six expert barbers are in attendance all the time and the furnishing in the shop are luxurious. Every operation in connection with the customer's service is surrounded with the strictest sanitation. An automatic sterilizer is kept in operation. Hot or cold baths are available at this shop. The barbers have been picked from the best the city affords and the service obtainable at the Standard can always be depended upon as being the very best there is within the gift of the torsorial artist. The shop opened with a large list of patrons and has steadily added to the. The congeniality of the proprietors, Messrs Boone and Jones and of the barbers has gone a long way toward making friends for the shop. HOME BUILDING AND A NEW $500 POLICY LOAN ASS'N GROWS PAYS IN FIVE WAYS Now Capitalized At $1,000,000 Has Been A Factor In Home Owning By Local People. The Norfolk Home Building and Loan Association, 705 S. Paul St., is the oldest financial institution in the city owned and operated by collected people. For 20 years it has been a leader in the fostering of home ownership by members of the race. The capital stock of the association is $1,000,000, an increase having been recently voted. Last year the association conducted an intensive stock sales campaign which resulted in the sales of approximately $40,000 worth of shares. The campaign this year also added materially to the aggregate shares being paid for by members. The Norfolk Home Building and Loan Association pays 6 per cent interest on money deposited and matures stock in a period shorter that what is required by any other association in the city. As a lender to home building it holds an excellent record, having at present outstanding loans on homes here totaling several thousand dollars. The books of the association are now open for any one who desires to make the start to own their home or to save money for investment or against future emergen- CHAS. CARTER, THE OLDEST IN HIS LINE Pioneer Merchant Tailor. One of Most Progressive Business Men In The City. Charles S. Carter, 628 East Brambleton avenue, is the oldest merchant tailor of his race doing business in this city. But it is not particularly the age of Carter's that give it distinction. It is the Carter brand of clothes. There is not a business of any nature in New York operated by a colored man that is as widely known as Carter's. The label of this house exhibited on clothes worn in any Northern city gives the wearer the distinction of being a weaver of quality clothes. At present Carter is showing a line of men's suits for Spring and Summer marked at prices as low as have ever prevailed in his store. It is not often that Carter is able to offer the merchandise of such excellent quality at such low prices as he is offering at present. For persistence and progressiveness Charles S. Carter, it is safe to state, without disparagement of any other merchant in the city, stands at the head of the rank. He goes after business the year round, getting aside an annual account to be used exclusively for advertising purposes. Every week in the year he advertises, and he frankly admits that his business is well benefitted by it. J. H. Martin First Class Confectioner Taking over a business that had for some reason or the other become considerably run down, just about three years ago, Mr. J. S. Martin at 1128 Church street, has succeeded in building up a substantial patrolage and making of the place one of the most inviting of its kind in the city. Martin's confectionery carries a high class line of goods generally found in like establishments. It has considerable floor space which is devoted to tables and seats for the use of its patrons. The place is quite popular as an idlewell inn, its coziness, cleanliness and quality service being quite an attraction. R. C.

More generally the opposite is the rule. But the North Carolina Mutual Life insurance agents in Norfolk afford outstanding exceptions. Mr. E. M. Mitchell, District Manager, Mr. H. C. Brown, Mr. Basil Jones and every one of the others, thru their genial disposition, painstaking and honorable business methods, and all-round good fellowship have made themselves exceedingly popular, in spite of the fact that the very nature of their business demands that they get the money. However, these agents have something to sell all the time that nobody can afford to be without. It is protection, and a policy in the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company means everything that is implied in the phrase, "insurance protection." This company is now writing sick and accident policies, thus offering its patrons the same sound protection against physical disabilities that is has been offering them in the case of death for the past quarter of a century. They have a new industrial special policy with a $500.00 value that pays five ways. This is regarded as a marked step forward in the insurance field, and one that will mean a remarkable benefit to the insurable public. And behind this policy is the marvellous strength of the North Carolina Mutual. BERKLEY BUILDING ASS'NHOME BUYERS Over on the other side of the river, over in Eerkley, but still in Norfolk, there is an institution that since 1920 has been a very creditable factor in instilling in the masses the principles of thrift, saving their money and wisely investing it for them, and aiding them in acquiring homes.

The concern is at present located in the Southern Aid Building on East Brambleton avenue and occupies the entire first floor. It is one of the best equipped real estate offices in the city. J. C. Brooks and Company carries a large rental list, and has a substantial clientele of investors. Many families in this city are now buying homes thru the urgency and efforts of the firm.

Entered as Second Class Matter at the “Post Office at Norfolk, Va, ‘The South is having a hard job shaking ‘off the lynching and burning of Negroes, as the latest case in Georgia shows, but it is doing it, and we hope it will succeed. Some very splendid white people are cooperating with some very splendid colored people to crush the head of the serpent, and it does not seem reasonable that they should fail. Last year's lynching record, the lowest yet, does not indicate that they will, Announcement has been made that the poem by James Weldon Johnson, “The Creation, a Nogro Sermon,” has been set to music by Louis Gruenberg, one of the Teading modern composers,, now in Paris ‘The poem is set for baritone, with an accompaniment of cight instruments, and will take from fifteen to seventeen minutes to perform. It is to be published in Vienna, Austria, probably before Summer, and it has been asked for by the American Music Guild and the League of Composers for pur- pose of performance. It is another big feather in the cap of the race. Our young musicians and poets are doing some splendid ares - We are all interested in the release sent out by the Federal Department of Labor in which the information is given that the Migrant Movement of Afro-Americans from the South began promptly with the coming of Spring and that the movement is already considerable and promises to be very great, The Department is cooperating with State and uplift agencies in the large centers of the North and West to secure labor and safeguard the interests of the migrants, as far as it can be done, and much can be done. The leaders of tho race in all of the large centers affected should be even more active than they are and have been in the good work of securing work and safe-guarding the intorests of the new-comers. Keeping The Record Straight The colored citizens of the State will watch with sympathetic interest the result of the appeal of Dr. William J, Clark, president of Virginia Union University, to the Negrocs of Richmond for $50,000 as their quota of a fund of $600,000 neecled for the erection of new buildings and in- creased endowment for the university. It is earnestly hoped that the money will be raised. It is also hoped that when the ap- peal is extended to both white and colored people thruout Virginia the response will be entirely adequate to the needs. It re- quires huge sums of moncy to effectively operate modern colleges, and the colored peo- ple should exhibit a readiness to shoulder their proper portion of the expense of op- erating their own schools of higher learning. But it will not affect adversely in the east the cause to be served if Dr. Clark will refrain from allowing his admirable zeal and enthusiasm for the welfare of Union to sweep him into making misleading and re- ficetive public statements concerning the University’s status in the State's education: al system. If he is correctly quoted in a Tecent newspaper release by Union's pub- licity department, he: said in his reéent speech launching the drive in Richmond: “A short time ago Virginia Union Uni- versity was recognized by the State board of education as a standard four year col- loge and it is the only place ix Virginia where colored youth can receive any college educa- tion or training that will prepare him to teach in colored high schools.” That assertion is misleading, if we cor- rectly understand the courses offered at both Hampton and Virginia Normal Insti- tutes. For two full terms and part of a third the former has had a collegiate de- partment, devoted expressly to the preparing of students for teaching in high schools, and offering the degree of B, S.

Dr. Plecker and -Prof. Reuter Join | patriot, the citizen who wishes his country 3 Issue Ses As your sweet singing gained fo Dr. W. A. Plecker and his contemporary exponents of a superior Nordic stock are due for a rude shock when they read the recently published book entitled, “Popula- tion problems,” by Edward Byron Reuter, associate professor of Sociology in the Uni- versity of Iowa. Assuming that Prof Reuter is as pro- found a student of ethnology as Dr. Plecker pretends to be, and that his views on the subject of races are as much entitled to re- spectful consideration as those of Virginia’s Registrar of Vital Statistics, it becomes evi- dent that these two scholars have decisively joined issue on the matter of endowed in- feriority and superiority of races. Says Dr. Plecker: “The variation is not simply a matter . of color of skin, eyes and hair and facial and bodily contour, but goes through every cell of the body. The mental and moral characteristics of a black man cannot even under the best environments and educational advantages become the same as those of the white man.” Prof. Reuter’s retort: “Ip spite of the confident assertions of certain psychological experts to the contrary, and testimony of men of long ‘association with the Negro people, there is probably no sufficient ground for the general opinion that the race is so in- ferior by natural endowment as to be forever incapable of reaching the level of white culture and destined, therefore, always to remain an inferior group in the population, ‘That the culture dif- ferences between the races are, at least in the main, matters of custom and tra- dition is coming more and more to be the consensus of scholarly opinion.” Both of these views of the Negro people have their proponents. Both have their-op- ponents. The former, however, is supported by nothing beyond theory, biased scientific deductions by those who begin their study ofthe question handicapped by a natural self sufficiency of the superiority of their own stock. In so far as go their findings, their study is complete before it begins. The latter is supported by example after example. No unprejudieed scientific obser- vation has ever disproved it, and that is the only kind of observation entitled to the name scientific. And it is true, as Prof. Reuter points out, the eonsensus of scholarly opinion cortainly tends towards the acceptance of the correctness of his views. If not, why the shibboleth of Negro domination? If he is by natural endowment a being infe- rior to the Nordic, out of what comes the anti-legal and anti-social impediments that are constantly thrown out to harrass and keep him inferior? Jt requires nothing save beneficence of nature forever to hold inferior animals in their inferiority. It is here suggested that if Dr. Plecker and his co-propagandists will, say for a quarter of a century, cease from troubling, the Negro race will greatly relieve him of the burden of trying to prove the colored man’s incapability of attaining Nordic cul- ture. President Coolidge Upholds Party Regularity The Republican majority in the Senate and House of Representatives has read Sen- ator La Follette and his radical followers in the Congress out of the Republican party and demoted them from the choice committee assignments that they held, principally by reason of long service, the only way pref- erment in committee work is secured. When a Senator has reached the highest commit- tee places, as chairman or a member, after long years of service, it becomes a serious matter to him as well as his State to be placed again at the bottom of the ladder. This fact will be better appreciated when it is understood that most of the important work of Congress is done in the committees. Only what they want considered ever reaches the Senate and the House. The Republican majority in the Con- gress has done the orrect thing in disei- plining the Radicals who bolted the party in the last election, according to the popular view of the matter, and perhaps the Presi- dent will be justified in the statement that he has endorsed the action of the leaders and ES eT ee ee Oe ciple being that oyr Government is really one by party and that the will of the clec- tors cannot well be secured in any other way, That is the correct view. But the preservation of the Government and the protection of the privileges and immunities of the citizenship do not depend upon party | regularity at all, but rather upon the inde- pendent thinking citizen who is a partisan when his party is right and not one when his party is wrong. For the time being and to sustain his attitude of protest against men and measures in his own party he either docs not vote at all or votes against the men and measures of his own party. ‘That must always be the attitude of the true patriot, the citizen who wishes his country best. It was that way in the late election, A large number of Afro-Americans were dis- satisfied with the attitude of President Cool- | idge towards the race and its interests, as “he did nothing to correct abuses complained of or to give the race any of the Presidential appointments of which they had been robbed by the Lilywhite policy of previous Adminis- trations, and because the Republican leaders and the Cleveland Convention not only re- fused to condemn the Ku Klux Klan, which was a paramount issue, but the rather ac- cepted aid and comfort from it, as in In- diana, Ohio and Illinois. Their position was the correct one. It did not signify that these independent-thinking Afro-Americans were Democrats, or would support Demo- cratic men and measures in the next elec- tion; if the Republican party redecms itself in the grievances complained of they will return to the party. They certainly will not follow the Democratic party if it swings away from the policy towards the race enunciated and fought for by Mr, John W. Davis and back to the old Bryan policy. which is that of the Democracy of the South towards the Afro-American people. It is the business of party leaders to maintain party regularity. -That is not disputed. It is the business of the good citizen to keep the party leaders regular, true to their party obligations, and to rebuke them when they are recreant. So it is with the newspapers as with the voters,—they must reserve the right of free discussion of men and measures and of determination in the last analysis whether they shall stand by the party right or wrong or oppose it when it is wrong and not right. The per- petuation of our system of Government and the preservation of the privileges and im- munities of the citizenship depend entirely upon this conception of public duty and eon- duet.’ Slaves to party are in the same class with slaves of other sorts, differing in kind and degree only. The interests of the Afro- ‘American people will never be preserved and conserved by being slaves of any party or other sorts of slave owners. ‘The JourNAL AND GUIDE has always been a Republican newspaper, but it has never been a slave to the Republican party and never expects to be. It helps, as our voters | do to make the Republican party; the Re- publican party does not help to make them, nor does it always render unto them the measure of party consideration to which they are entitled. Spirit of the Press shee Helping Negro Education The New York Herald-Tribune. Mr. John D. Rockefeller, jr's gift of $1,000,000 to the Hampton-Tuskegee fund is the more significant since it is prompted by an intimate acquaintance of many years with the work if these institutions, begin- ning with his visit to Hampton as a small boy in company with his father. The In- stitute was at that time conducted by its founder, General Samuel Chapman Arm- strong, who was solving by his sound ex- periment the Negro problem of “education for life.” Hampton was the first great vocational school established in the United States. It is the mother of Tuskegee. Both have been factors of unbounded influence not only in direet teaching but also in the heightening of the economic and moral standards of the Negro. They have contributed, moreover, to a better interracial understanding. ‘They have brought about respect for Negro man- hood and womanhood based on the sterling character and service of the graduates of the two institutes. It is manifestly for the interest of the whole country that these excellent schools shall continue their vigorous expansion. ‘Their friends have an opportunity to assure their future by assisting to round out the desired fund of $5,000,000 for the joint en- dowment and building program which the Rockefeller gift has put within measurable distance of accomplishment. When the five millions have been raised there will be added Mr. Eastihan’s contingent gift of $2,000,000. With the goal in sight there is every pros- pect of the generous and timely cooperation ‘of many contributors, « , To Roland Hayes Sweet singer we admire thy voice, Whieh in the past few years has rung from shore to shore; And you must live, yes you shall live for years to come That we may hear thee more!

Hazen Waterbury, Conn, POPULATION PROBLEMS ea aces anes Peewee ticle is reprinted by permis- sion of J. B. Lippincott Com- pany from a book which they have recently published entitled “Population Pr ob- loma” by Edward Byron Reuter, Ph. D., associate professor of sociology in the University of lowa and au- thor of “The Mulatto in the United States.” “In spite of the confident as- sertions of certain psychological experts to the contrary, and the testimony of men of long asso- ciation with the Negro people, there is probably no sufficient ground for the general opinion that the race isso inderior by nat ural endowment as to be forever incapable of reaching the level of white culture and destined, therefore, always to remain an inferior group in the population. ‘That the culture differences be- tween the races are, at least in the main, matters of custom and tradition is coming more and more to be the’ consensus of scholarly opinion. A longer pe- riod of contact and opportunity will obliterate peculiar habits of mind, and members of the race / will reach in increasingly large “numbers the higher levels of modern culture. “But at the present time the race as a whole is poor, ig- norant, and inefficient. The Ne- groes were not equipped for the economic struggle at the time of emancipation and property has accumulated slowly. The amount of actual dependency is-great, al- though their free and easy gen- erosity to cach other diminishes the number of appeals to or- ganized charity. In education they are backward. The schools are utterly inadequate, the per- centage of attendance is low, the sehool terms are short, the teachers are often inefficient, and the equipment is meagre. The amount of vice and crimi- ality, as measured by police court records, is high. As a re- sult of poverty and ignorance they live under conditions that make mental and physical effi- ciency well-nigh impossible. The group as a whole is backward, and lacking in pride of race or achievement, “Moreover there exists on the part of the white group a racial prejudice, the expression of his- toric and social conditions. This attitude expresses itself in an exclusion of the Negro. He is isolated, by virtue of law or cus- tom, from practically all the higher expressions of human cul- ture. This isolation—exclusion from schools, churches, theatres, desirable residence neighbor- hoods, social contact with cul- tured people, and all that is el- evating in modern life—tends to the perpetuation of the lower culture, makes difficult the ad- vance of the Negro group, or the emergence of the talented indi- viduals. It also makes easy if not inevitable the economic and sex exploitation of the group. Because they are poor and ig- norant and unorganized, they are disfranchised, brow-beaten, ex - ploited, and oppressed. “It is a serious handicap to a community to have its social be- havior emotionally determined. The refusal of a community to use the latent talent it contains in- evitably results in the retarda- tion of the progvess of the group. Social talent is pitifully searce at best and the group that, to indulge a caste or color preju- dice, refuses to make use of the talent that it has is destined to be a laggard in the social progress. But it goes farther than this, In addition to making use of on- ly the part of the native talent that is born of white ancestry, eolor prejudice forees whole com- munities to subject themselves to the inconvenience and expense of maintaining a dual system of institutions. As a result the in- © Saturday, March 21, 1925 SEUWONS OF ACO Sreuy Can nor do compare in quality or in quantity with those of other sec- tions, In education, for example, there are communities, unable adequately to support one good "set of schools, which undertake the maintenance of a separate set for the colored and the white children, As a consequence the illiteracy and general ignorance the intellectual and social back- wardness'of both the black and the white, is pronounced. That any community should thus handicap itself and still expect to keep pace with the advance- ment of the modern world is evidence of the. essential stu- pidity of man, Such groups must be backward, and being backward they develop as a pro- tective coloration a certain pride in their backwardness and in the archaic nature of their institu- tions. Progress becomes ancil- lary to a caste mania, “The problem of the Negro in America today is largely the result of the, existence of ‘this traditional attitude which iso- lates and handicaps the racial group in its cultural advance, and makes backward the whole social situation in which the group must live. The Negro must live in the atmosphere of contempt and dislike and make such advances as he may, eco- nomically, educationally, cultur- ally, in spite of it. But the Ne- gro is.making advance and with every advance becomes less tol- erant of injustice and abuse and more insistent that he be allowed the rights and opportunities of other members of the society. And every advance that he makes quickens the prejudice of those persons who are convinced of his native inferiority and de- termined to keep him socially In- ferior. The problem is to main- tain a friendly working relation between the races during such time as may be required for the disappearance of the handicap- ping prejudice, through the en- lightenment of the whites, and the ultimate disappearance of the problem through the disap- pearance of the Negro himself. “Artificial barriers to the ac- quisition of culture must every- where break down as a result of the influence of civilization. The line of color scems destined to cease to be the line of caste, Ap- proximately equal opportunity would create an aristocracy on other lines than that of skin col- | oration, Increasing communica | tion and contact and the conse- _ quent increasing uniformity of ideas, customs, and standards would "minimize racial differ- erices. Competition climinates, selects, and brings men together on other bases than those of tribunal marks. Above all, per- sonal competition must super- sede caste competition, which puts groups rather than individ- uals in position of inferiority and superiority. “In the meanwhile, prejudice, and the consequent difficulty of friendly relations, tends to in- erease just in proportion as the Negro merits to a consideration that the prepossessed white man it not willing to accord him.” | Health Talks | a! Venereal Diseases (U. 8. Pabtic’ Health Service.) ‘Three hundred and sixty-five new cases of venereal disease were reported in the United States in"the year ending June 30, 1924:' To many folks this may seem to be a trifling an- nouncement of no more impor- tance thai a statement that 363,- 000 persons had caught cold; but | to one who knows the true facts |, about venereal disease, it brings a vision of misery, of lost time | and money, of an. economic |! burden to workers and the na- |; ION, OF URE SUCKING OF InGCeny women and children—all of which have been the accompani- ments of syphilis and gonorrhea from time immemorial, and which in the present day can be escaped’ only. by the application of the knowledge of the cause, prevention and cure of venereal diseases, Although the absolute know- ledge of syphilis as a distinct disease dates back to only 1494 —when the sailors of Columbus brought the disease to ‘Spain from Haiti, and when the ar- mies of Charles VIII of France and Ferdinand of Spain spread the disease through Italy—there is evidence tending to show that syphilis has existed ever since cities were first built and peo- pled. In the poems and writings of the ancients, mention is made of communicating a loathsome disease by kissing, as well as by other relations between sexes Emperor Ho-Ang-Ti, who ruled China more than 4,500 years ago, caused the medical knowledge of than day to be collected into a single work, and in that work can be found a description of gonorrhea, as well as of a di- sease similar to syphilis. Down through the ages ve- tiereal diseases have come. They have been nursed by immorality by ignorance, and by a false idea that they were punishments vis- ited upon sinners—an idea that ignored the fact of innocent in- fection. * In secret, and therefore unchecked by medical science, these plagues ran their full courses, leaving death, insanity, loathsome sores, paralysis, pain- racking wives, stillborn children, and untold misery and suffering in their ‘wake. Then, as now, venereal diseases took their toll from all classes of people. Rich- and poor, idler and worker, mor- al and immoral, all who became exposed were infected. But there is one difference. In ages past there was no remedy, no medical care, no hope for victims of syphilis and gonorrkea. Modern seience, however, has evolved a method of cure. Though it is not always possible to undo all the harm which has been done, today an infected person has the comfort of knowing that early treatment by a reliable physician or in an official public clinic may prevent the worst consequences of venereal disease, (Continued Next Week) | Rockefeller’s Thoughtfulness John D. Rockefeller, Jr., has recently announced a gift of $1,000,000 to Hampton Institute. The Rockfellers have been gen- erous in their donations for the elevation of human standards. In their generosity they have been thoughtful of the less favored peoples and particulirly, the Amoriean Negro. But their thoughtfulness has gone even beyond the gifts- of millions. In the little things of life, they too have borne in mind the welfare of the meck, a fact which is very interestingly illus- trated in a clipping Mr. B. C, Forbes correspondent of several Metropolitan dailies, has so kindly submitted to the JourNaL AND GUIDE. It reads thus: “Mr, Rockefeller sure is thoughtful,’ ’a colored employee at 26 Broadway assured me the other day when I paid my first visit to the new part of the Standard Oil building. “There is. lots of marble a- round here, but. see this wooden door and partition,” he said en- thusiastically pointing to the en- trance to his quarters. “Mr. Rockefeller noticed there was a draft coming in here on us and ordered this put up for the winter months. “Yes sir, he sure is a fine gen- tleman to all kinds of folks.” Thus did this humble colored employee pay tribute to John D. Rockefeller, Jr. This little incident, reffecting the pains that perhaps the rich- est man in the world took to in- sure the comfort of one or two colored workers, is offered as a suggestion to some other em- ployers, ; Steel Industry In Minnesota Dulath; Minn, Mar. 12—It is reported that the stel industry in Duluth. js beginning ‘to show signs of an expansion, it is expected that some plants which have been inactive during the: past year will resume operatioris this’ spring, theréby ‘offering ‘employment to many Negro iron and steel work- ers.
