C., March 25—A large crowd gathered in the school auditorium on Monday night March 23, 1925, to celebrate the 61st birthday of Dr. C. S. Brown Dr. and Mrs. Brown entered the chapel amid the thundering applauses of the student body and friends. A short program followed. Rev. J. C. Melton presented the presents after which Dr C. S. Brown expressed his gratitude for the good-will shown him. Aside from the school gift, Dr Brown received several personal gifts. The people of the State of North Carolina cannot accord this man of God too much honor. Dr. Brown is one of the most influential men in the State of North Carolina. The white Baptist convention of the State of North Carolina some months ago held a joint meeting with some of the colored Baptist leaders of the State. In this meeting plans were formulated how a better relation might be brought about between the two races. In looking for some one who was capable of handling the situation, who at the same time knew North Carolina as a playground, they held hands on Dr. C. Brown. They wanted him to make his headquarters at Raleigh. Dr. Brown refused this position with its alluring price. He preferred to stay at Winton where a greater part of his life had been spent. Dr. Brown came to Winton just after the Civil War, when much of the town was a dense forest, he waved his magic wand, and a beautiful school and community have sprung up as it were over night. The postmaster at Winton said on one occasion: "I have never been to a place where the colored and white people go along better than they do to work, and it is all due to the work of Dr. C. S. Brown," Dr. C. S. Brown, mar. in the State," said Mr. J. P. Mitchell, a farmer of the Merchants and Farmers Bank of Winton. Many more similar statements have been made concerning this citizen. Said a prominent citizen: "Colored people don't appreciate good leadership. The reason for this is evident. Too many little follows want to be leaders. They forget that the way to true greatness leads through faithful unself fish service.

OFFICER CHARGED WITH BEATING MAN IS BACK ON FORCE J. E. Kilpatrick Acquitted On Appeal In Corporation Court From $50.00 Fine Imposed by Police Justice. Policeman J. E. Kilpatrick of the local force, who recently gained notoriety when a colored prisoner he arraigned before Police Justice Spindle警ed that the officer arrested him without cause and severely manhandled him in making the arrest, which charges resulted in the policeman being arrested, tried and fined $50.00 on a warrant charging assault, was acquitted when his case came upon appeal in Corporation Court last week.

PRESIDENT CLARK WAS MISQUOTED BY PUBLICITY AGENT Did Not Make Statement That Union Was Only College In State That Prepared High School Teachers. DRIVE FOR UNION MEETING WITH SUCCESS President Clark of Virginia Union University has given to the Journal and Guide a correction of the statement which appeared in a news release sent out from the University last week quoting President Clark as saying: "A short time ago, Virginia Union University was recognized by the State board of education as a standard four year college and it is the only place in Virginia where colored youth may receive any college education or training that will prepare him to teach in colored high schools." Dr. Clark pointed out. Dr. Clark's letter to the Journal and Guide is as follows: "Your splendid paper comes to my desk regularly. In the issue of March 21, I note your editorial on "Keeping the Record Straight." You have written in a very fine spirit and I appreciate what you have said. The point in your article which is under question is not a correct report of my statement. I have to tell you that I am splendid work of Hampton Institute and of Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute to even think of saying that Virginia Union University is the only place in Virginia where colored youth can receive any college education or training that will prepare him to teach in colored high schools. I know that such is not the case and in all of my work I am trying to say only that that is not as good as it is. Our public agency has promised to correct it in a forthcoming article. I shall be happy if you will also correct the statement so that your constituency may know that I desire very much to "keep the record straight." V. N. and I. I. President Issues Statement The statement attributed to President Clark had also come to the attention of President John M. Gandy, of Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute, at Petersburg, one of the State schools doing college work, and Dr. Gandy promptly dictated the following statement to the Journal and Guide. "Please accept my appreciation for the splendid editorial you had in the Journal and Guide under the date of March 21. Your attitude is perfectly correct. The State is soon to boast of more educational agencies that will provide higher training for the Negro youth than the few that we have had in the past. You will be interested to know that the State Board of Education voted to grant to the graduates of the College course of this institution the College Professional Certificate. This is the highest certificate that is granted by the State of Virginia. It is the same certificate that is granted to the graduates of the University of Virginia, William and Mary, and four teachers' colleges, and any other standard college. The State. This puts coordinates of our College course on equal footing with the graduates of any other college in the country. Outlook Good For State College "You will also be interested to know that the outlook for the building of a strong State College here is exceedingly promising. We have enrolled in our College course for this year 225 students. Our faculty includes some of the best prepared and the most brilliant Negro students that come from Northern universities. The following universities are represented on our faculty: College University, University of Pennsylvania, Rutgers University Normal College, Boston University, Harvard University, Pennsylvania State College, Ohio State University, Michigan Agricultural College, Kansas Agricultural College, University of Nebraska, University of California, Pittsburgh University, Iowa State College, Western Reserve University, Chicago University, and the leading Negro colleges.

ELLIOTT EXCELSIOR BAND SUSTAINS HIGH RANK IN CONCERT Sunday Afternoon Recital Drew A Large Audience And Added New Laurels to Musical Group.

Forty-three members of the band participated in the concert, which was directed by the accomplished and popular leader, Capt. George Fellitt. Mrs. Jesse Chilhorne Holmes added to the enjoyment of the occasion by rendering two vocal numbers which delighted the audience.

LOUISVILLE LETS CONTRACT FOR SWIMMING POOL Louisville, Ky., March 26—Two years' short on the part of the Interracial Committee of Louisville, led by Dr. James Bond, have finally been rewarded by the letting of a contract by the Louisville Board of Park Commissioners for the construction of a swimming pool and bath house for colored people. The pool will be reinforced concrete, 80x170 feet in size, and of the most modern type. The water supply will be constantly sterilized by a chlorinator and kept in sanitary condition. The bath house will be 38x95 feet in size, built of fave brick on hollow tile. It will contain dressing rooms, guards' rooms, refectories, lobby, towel and suit rooms, showers and dressing rooms for men and women, and locker rooms fully equipped. An interior wall will be lined with glazed tile. The pool and park will be brilliantly illuminated at night. The total cost of the improvement will be $840,000. The Louisville Post says of the pool: "It will give sport, health and instruction to thousands who now have no way of enjoying equities except in the Ohio river where the beginner is not safe. The pool is well located and should be convenient to the majority of the colored population. This addition to the park system has long been needed and is a matter of simple justice to the colored tax payers." SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR Dividend of $4.00 A Share Voted By Directors; Company Shows Substantial Growth In The Past Year. Durham, N. C., March 25—The directors of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company at a meeting held in the home offices here Friday, March 19, voted a stock dividend of $4.00 for the stock as of record, December 1, 1924, to the stockholders and specified that the date of payment for this dividend be May 5, 1925. Another step taken by the board, which is regarded as further indicating the healthy condition of the company, was the authorization of the issuance of policies on automobiles covering fire and theft only. Following this move, officials of the company expressed their belief that has proven a paying line for other five insurance companies, they believe it will be a paying line for Bankers' Fire. Disclosures on the condition of the company made in its annual statement for the close of the year as of December 31, 1924, prove that it is steadily assuming prominence as another of the race's strongest and most dependable business concerns. This statement, which is printed in another column of this paper, shows that since being chartered in 1900, and of opening the underwriting of fire risks about 12 months later, Bankers' Fire Insurance Company has enjoyed a substantial growth both in business expansion and stability of assets. Substantial Increase Shown Last year marked an increase in assets totalling $37,567.96; in premiums written, $12,650.07; insurance in force, $2,504,660.00 and in unearned premium reserve, $17,978.76. The total insurance in force at the end of the year is nearly ten and half million dollars, with premiums in force to the extent of $166,946.78. The company has paid in losses since organization $102,857.56. These figures not only assure the solvency of the company and its ability to vote a dividend, but point to the sound basis upon which the company is operating, the business capacity of its officials, and the assurances of a continued expansion. Backed and managed by a group of men highly experienced in finance and business operations the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company has been a going concern since organization. This fact was outstandingly evidenced following the great New Bern, N. C, fire which left hundreds of families homeless. The catastrophe occurred within a few months after Bankers' Fire had begun the underwriting of risks. In New Bern the company had several thousand of dollars of insurance in Spedellis its adjusters on the fire sweep of being the first representatives of an underwriting concern to begin an inspection of the ruins. Just as speedily were the claims certified and the losses paid again setting a record of being the first company to begin the actual payment of claims. Covers Several States Since that time the company has greatly extended its operations which now cover several states, insurance in force amounts to more than ten million dollars and the pigressiveness of Bankers Fire is commanding the attention of financiers of national prominence. It writes the same policies as in other industries in other charges the same rate and has earned a reputation for giving fair and honest adjustments as well as promptly claims. The officers of the company are W. G. Pearson, president; C. C. Spaulding, first vice president; A. J. Strong, of Norfolk, second vice president; J. M. Avery, treasurer; W. Gomez, secretary-manager; M. A. Goins, assistant secretary; L. W. Wilhoite, auditor; H. W. Hill special representative. With the addition of Mr. J. C. Scarborough these men also compose the Executive Committee. The directors include the above named officers and E. W. Smith, Winston-Salem; J. S. Thompson, Durham; J. A. Tinsley, Weldon; E. R. Merrick, Durham; B. E. L. Jordan, Richmond; John E. Nail, New York; Ira T Bryant, Nashville; G. O. Edwards, Kittrell, W. M. Rich, Norfolk; J. C. Scarborough, Durham; J. H. Riley, Newport News; L. E. Williams, Savannah.

M. C. A. And Y. W. C. A. Delegates Hear Native Chinese Express Doubt As To Sincerity of Christians. TRAVELING SECRETARY STUDENT FEDERATION Nashville, Tenn.—T. Z. Koo, native Chinese, one of the traveling Secretaries of the World's Student Christian Federation with headquarters at Geneva, Switzerland, was the chief speaker at the first annual officers Training Conference of the Y.

A. and Miss Frances Williams of the National Board Y. W. C. A., Dr. W. J. King, Negro delegate to Peking in 1922 and a personal friend of Mr. Koo assisted in the meetings. Mr. Koo dressed in his native costume was a striking figure as he said: "He sheathen world is endowing to learn what drew men to Jesus, and in order to do so are disregarding forms and are going back to Jesus himself. The people of the East have become confused by the conduct of the Christian Nations and have been unable to understand why they do not practice what they preach. Nations of the world are kept apart by the superficial things of life but in the essentials they are one." CHARRED BODY OF MOB VICTIM BURIED IN POTTERS FIELD The body of the colored man known only as "Shorty" who was lynched by a mob estimated at nearly 2,000 persons at Waverly, Sussex county, Va., Friday night was moved to a point 27 miles from the scene of the lynching in Isle of Wight county, near the following a conspirator's verdict that the man came to his death at the hands of parties unknown, it was buried in Potter's field. Shorty worked at a lumber mill near Waverly. He was accused of a criminal attack on a young white woman. Two days after the alleged attack he was arrested while at work, lodged in jail. Neya of his arrest and identification by his alleged victim spread like wild fire thru the little country town. A mob began to assemble when it was estimated that person he accused of the jail. Shorty is alleged to have confessed his guilt to the sheriff. The mob quickly forced entrance to the jail, took the prisoner out and carried him to a tree out on a lonely road where they hanged him to a limb, riddled his body with bullets and made a grusome attempt at burning it. Followup announcement that a carver's jury was being empaired to view the charred remains dangling from the tree, members of the mob went early Saturday morning, cut it down and carried it into another county where they deposited it outside. When Governor Trinkle was apprised of the incident he went to Waverly, expressed his regrets and urged the mobbists to stop their affairs. He denied that he had received any call for the militia. Held For Grave Offense Pensacola, Fla.—A brutal assault and torture committed upon a girl, said to be colored, now dying in a Pensacola hospital was dis closed following the arrest of white U. S. marines charged with the atrocious crime. The Durham, N. C. Sun, of March 8, reports that the young woman was discovered, tied to a tree in the woods along a lonely country road, her clothing stripped off, her body slashed and marks on her skin where, burning matches had been applied. The two marines, James, and L. J. Moore, by the Durham Sun, have been arrested and jailed after positive identification by their dying victim. --- PAGE TWO OFFICER CHARGED WITH BEATING MAN IS BACK ON FORCE (Continued From Page One) against Kilpatrick. Moss was testifying in his own defense on an attempted store breaking count, several weeks ago, when he told a pittable story of being virtually dragged from his home some hours after midnight by the policeman, clubbed, cursed, abused and finally thrown into the lock up without cause. His story was corroborated by more than a half dozen witnesses. Following two separate hearings Police Justice Spindle dismissed the charge against Moss, and ordered the issuance of a bench warrant against the policeman on a charge of assault. In the meantime Commonwealth's Attorney Wilcox, who had listened to the testimony in the trial, recommended the holding of a witness for Kilpatrick on a charge of perjury. Mr. Wilcox appeared in the case to prescribe Moss. When the case of the officer came up for a hearing, Assistant Police Justice Col. William H. Sands was presiding on the bench. Moss repeated his story of maltreatment at the hands of Kilpatrick. The Justice imposed a fine of $50.00. It was on appeal from this fine Kilpatrick was declared blameless by a jury. Moss' story, overwhelmingly corroborated, had weight enough to cause Justice Spindle to find him innocent; to cause the Commonwealth's Attorney to charge that a witness had perjured himself in favor of the accused officer, and to cause the Assistant Police Justice to impose a fine of $50.00 against the policeman. Before a jury of his peers in Corporation Court this same story was related and just as thoroughly corroborated but the officer was adjudge blameless. Colored citizens have expressed themselves as entertaining no surprise whatsoever at the final outcome of the case, as it took the usual course of causes tried before juries where the issue is between white and colored. Col. W. B. Causey, City Manager shares in the jury's opinion of officer Kilpatrick's innocence, and has ordered that he be restored to duty following, he states a thorough examination of the evidence.

Colored citizens of the State are being called upon to raise $100,000 of the amount. In Richmond a drive to raise $80,000 among the colored citizens of that city has already been launched and is being vigorously pushed. Farmers say the hardest things to raise are chickens. J. T.

(Special to the Journal and Guide.) Newport News, Va., Mar. 26.—What citizens of this city regard as one of the most extraordinary appeals to rare prejudice ever made by a Virginia newspaper was launched by the Daily Press, morning paper, published here, on March 15th and followed by an even more bitter breadside on March 20th. The occasion for the surprising attack upon the rue by Col. Copeland, editor of the Daily Press, who has been regarded by colored citizens as a friend of the rue, was the announcement by him of the organization in Newport News of a Post of the "Anglo-Saxon Club of America." The articles appearing in the Daily Press are submitted here, foll: within which were taken in this city Friday night to form an Anglo-Saxon Club as a part of the State organization. As has been more than once stated, this organization is not uninterested to the Native race. A part of its creed is: "I believe in the superiority of the white race in the United States of America, without special prejudices or hatreds." But the men who are leading the movement are profoundly impressed with the necessity of taking every possible precaution to preserve the integrity of the white race. Nor is the question of importance South alone. It is becoming more and more a national problem. By the World War thousands and tens of thousands of South and the following statistics have been from the South to the North and the following statistics have been during the past week show a large population of a million in ten industrial centers of the North and West, follows. Indianapolis District 17,500 Toronto-Tobotle District 15,500 Cleveland-Youngstown Dist. 18,500 Kansas City District 16,500 Pittsburgh District 18,500 Columbus-Cincinnati Dist. 18,500 St. Louis District 18,500 Chicago District 21,500 Philadelphia District 21,500 New York District 21,500 Pears Color Line Will Disappear No doubt that the Negro is someone who is a part of the colonies of the North, and as the Negro colonies increase, naturally they will grow more and more from the South and in all the Northern and Western tates while children and Negro en- gro are taught side by side in the scolds, and in the District of Columbia the States of Connecticut, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Wash- land, Wisconsin and Wyoming, free inter- rances of the race is permitted by iw. In Virginia we have a law against mixed schools and our law against the intermarriage of the races is as rigid as could be made. We have a law populating race separation on public concessions, and good of the Virginia cities manmade to keep pretty well corroded in the residential district. But powerful influences are at work throughout the United States, in the Southern States, in the Southeastern States as well as in the Northwest. We have a law that places the two races upon terms of absolute equality. And the ultimate aim of that movement is imminent: dissolution of the Negro race by the white race. And that must be the cherished ambition of the Negro race to use the blood of the Allegiance race to rid the Negro race of objectifiable characteristics in their form and features. It has been said of the Negro race that it was trying to "blind itself." The fact is it is trying to lose itself in the Ante-Saxon race. Notes Progress of Race The Negro race has made wondrous If You are "Ch achievement since the thankles of slavery were removed, and every Negro his cause be justly proud of these achievements. But the Negro race is a disadvantage; race disadjusted mainly by its physical character; resistance, and the Negro would be unnatural did he not desire to put on a new freedom, and be in the nature of a new freedom. We say that powerful influences are at work to woe out racial distinctions and give the Negro realization of his ambitions. Here in this old Virginia community, rich in history and tradition, here where the first permanent white man's settlement was made, there is an institution which teaches and practices social equality between the white and Negro races. It is the richest institution in Virginia, and money by the million is flowing into its endowment fund. It is richer than the University of Virginia, and more than Virginia, than William and Mary College or any other State Institution of learning. It has the finest library in this section of Va. It has the finest pipe organ. It has the very best equipment that money can buy, and it has a commons auditorium, where the highest class of entertainments are served the public, entertainments so costly that other institutions in the community could not afford them. These entertainments are freely patronized by white men and women who sit side by side with the Negro men and women of the institution and other Negroes residing in Hampton and Virginia. There is pretense of separating the races in the auditorium. To the literary, the institution must inform if it should they must come on the same terms as the Negroes, and no distinctions made. To make such distinctions obviously would be contrary to the policy of an institution which teaches racial equality. Moreover, it is clearly in farrethose of that policy to have the whites of the Old Dominion turn away from the tradition and mix freely with Negroes in the auditorium of a Negro school. See's Danger in Education This institution trains its students well in morals, manners and handcraft and there is not a better beaten set of students in the United States, not one of whom, we are informed, has ever been arrested for crime or disorderly conduct. And the officers are a men and women of high character and exemplary conduct. But all that enhances the danger which this article is designed to point out, and there is a still greater danger in the public schools. In most of the Northern and Western States white and Negro children are taught in the same schools by the same teachers without racial distinction. In some cases, white children are taught by Colored teachers. The children of both races are thrown together on terms of perfect equality, they play together, they become "pals", and why not "sweethearts". That sort of relationship does racial distinctions eventually and unification would follow a continual. In the South we have a law prohibited schools, but practically all the children, white and colored go to the public schools, are educated in much the same way and taught out of the same books. The children of both races must on their way to and from school and in some instances play together and the white children grow up with very different sentiments; many we do not say. Stimuli from those different beings from the Negro of other generations, and contact between white and Negro children will tend more and more to break down racial instinct and obliterate racial lines. And that is what the present generation of whites must guard against, as they would guard against disease and pests, for the very life of the Anglo-Saxon race in America is at stake. Fears Ultimate Analagmation Is the Daily Press trying to stir up bad blood? God forbid! The Daily Press is trying to stir up the best blood; to arouse the Angle-Saxon to the danger which threatens. The Angle-Saxon race has no moral right to amalgamate with any colored race, for in so doing it would destroy itself; it would commit suicide, and, as Representative Tucker has so forcefully pointed out life is a trust. Amalgamation would mean the destruction of the Angle-Saxon race in America and the substitution of a race of mutuates. Rather than that should be we would prefer that every white child in the United States were sterilized and the Angle-Saxon race left to perish in this purity. Hampton Principal Presents Facts When the attack containing the forging attack upon Hampton was brought to the attention of Dr. James E. Gregg, principal, who was in New York, he wrote the Daily Press as follows: Editor of The Daily Press, Sir: Your editorial on the Integrity of the Aniole-Saxon Race in the Daily Press for March 15th has just been brought to my attention. I am sorry that you have written quite as you have in your reference to the press, and that misapprehension of the facts which I fear may only too easily became widespread. As I have understood the principles and practice of the school—and there has been no essential change in either, to the best of my knowledge, for the past fifty years—there has never been encumancement of the social mingling of the races under circumstances that would lead to embarrassment on either side. It should hardly be necessary to add that association of nature, such as could effectively lead to intermarriage contrary to the judgment of the overwhining, majority of Norseans as of white persons, and in our experience is effectively prevented nine times out of ten by even fewer watchfulness on the part of our Colored people that is always exercised by others. The Institute exists to help the Negro race and to serve the whole nation. It has simply tried to be courteous and fair on the one hand to its white friends, both of the North and of the South, and on the other hand to its Negro constituency. If occasional sharp criticism from all three parties is any indication of approximate justice we have had that measure of compassion. I cannot believe that any thoughtful person could advocate the amalgamation of visible races, or would minimize that this is any less culpable when it tries to please without the sanction of legal quality. All of us know that—such amalgamation—as his arrival, come about—the Negro is not guilty. The more his self-respect is built up, the greater his gain in intelligence, sound character, and economic independence, the deeper will be his natural pride. Each have been the objects of the kite of education which has been given at Hampton Institute by General A. Armstrong and Dr. Frissell and at Tuskegee by Dr Washington and Dr. Moton. It is our hope that it may help to enable the United States eventually to show the world that men of different races can live and work happily, side by side, conserving the best traditions of each group, in mutual respect and in Christian good will. I am taking the liberty of sending a copy of this letter to our hear-tree, Mr. Houser L. Ferguson and Mr. Francis W. Darling, with whom I have several times discussed the whole question. Launches Second Attack Commenting upon Dr. Gregg's statement the Daily Press said: Dr. Gregg's letter is given the same prominence that was given to the Daily Press to which he press. It is a very courteous reply and written in good temper, but it denies no essential statement made by The Daily Press. It was alleged that there was an institution in this community which taught and practiced social equality between the races, meaning, of course, the Hippean Norman race and the African-Norwegian race that "there has never been encouragement of the social mingling of the races under circumstances which would lead to embarrass- EDUCATION THE BEST SOLUTION From the Newport News Star.

EDUCATION THE BEST SOLUTION Know the Newport News State The laws, which the South makes to militate against the Negro's right to decent treatment only applies to the Negro because the whites make no possible pretense to obey the same, whenever they feel inclined to oversteer them, and in very many instances the Negro of intelligence and good manners frequently set the example for high class behavior and genteel deportment. As the Negro grows in intelligence he is far less inclined to hanker after the absorption and amalgamation of which the Negro-hating white man prates, as do very many of the whites. The fact that thousands of Negroes are leaving the South is due to the fact that, like the Israelites of old, they are fleeing from the fleshpots that not only bind their bodies, but damn their souls. ment on either side," so may we not with propriety put the following questions to him: Raises Doubtful Questions Do not the officers and teachers of the institution white and colored, meet on social equality. And do not white teachers and colored pupils meet such terms? Philip Levy's Sale Drawing Crowd Philip Levy and Company is combating a male on household furnishings that is attracting considerable attention. Be particularly this true of the offering $5.00 for any old refrigerator to be a plied on the purchase of a new one. Do they not on occasion sit together at the same table and have a sociable meet together without racial distinction? Are not the students of Hampion Institute taught that the race of the white race and that no racial distinctions should be made either in law or society? Is it not a fact that Booker Washington in his lifetime was entertained in the homes of trustees of the Hampion Institute when he visited the North, and is it not a fact that Robert R. Moton, his successor, is similarly entertained; that it not only Dr. Moton, but other coed men in the homes of Northern white men and mingled with them socially? Will Dr. Gregg say in plain terms that he does not believe in social equality between the races, but that he does believe in drawing the color line in the social circle? Will he say in plain terms that he believes in maintaining the traditions of this Virginia community in regard to race separation and racial distinctions? Will he deny, that in the entertainments given in Ogden Hall, no distinctions whatever are made in seating the audience, but that whites and Negroes are seated indiscriminately? Dr. Gregg says there has been no essential change in the principles and practices in Hampton Institute in the past fifty years, but we ask him if it was the practice in Dr. Frisell's administration to seat whites and Negroes in the public hall indiscriminately; if, on the other hand, it was not Dr. Frisell's practice to seat the whites and some for the Negroes. We ask him if Dr. Frisell ever bad Negroes at his social entertainments as quiesces. From reports which have come to this office there has been a very desired change of policy in the conduct of the institution, in these respects since Dr. Gregg became principal. Of course Dr. Gregg opposes amalgamation ultimately, and that goes without saying, but social equality would lead to amalgamation. In the same question which the white race must face. Place the two races upon terms of perfect equality; educate both in the same manner; obliterate the color line in the social circle and make it the fashion for whites and Negroes to meet in society without racial disjunction. In all of that Dr. Gregg and men like him might do to prevent it there would be "association of a romantic nature," mixed marriages more and more. Virginia Traditions We have our tradition in the South, our own customs, our customs, and the Hampton Institute which is situated in Virginia territory and which receives the protection of the laws of this State and the friendly consideration of the people of this community has no moral right to teach and practice anything which is contrary to the Virginia spirit, and our sense of propriety, nor to ignore in any degree our time-honored customs. The officers of the Institute might say that if the white people of this community do not like the terms upon which visitors are received at their public functions, they may say away. But that would be defiant of our customs and equivalent to saying that the officers did not care for the respect and well of the community, and that, we are sure, is not Dr. Gregge's spirit. The Daily Press has no disposition figure the Hampton Institute, but we are determined, as far as in our power lies, that no institution in this community shall run counter to the deep-seated sentiments of the Virginia people, their sacred customs and cherished traditions who preservation is necessary to the preservation of the integrity of our Anglo-Saxon stock. HOME AND KITCHEN SUGGESTIONS Department of Education and Inspiration for the Housewife —Edited By— MARION JANE PARKER, Director, Home Economies, Columbus Baking Powder Company, Chicago, Illinois. HOUSE-CLEANING TIME The most of us who live in a city where here is smoke and dust, n-plenty—there seems to be one continual round of house- cleaning, window and curtain washing as cells of floors and woodwork to go over about every two or three weeks. Still, when spring comes and the heating plants are at rest, we feel the urge stirring us to a more strenuous cleaning, the packing and storing away of heavy garments and storm windows and the bringing forth of screens and awnings, and too, at this same time, the making of necessary repairs. Indoor spring cleaning plans should beaid with the thought forward of getting the garments and screens possible. Here is where a home-maker shows her executive ability to best advantage. If she lacks in this it will be evidenced to the outsider by a disturbed family and a confused house. Plan just what you can afford to do and before starting decide on the best method of operating. Take a room or a room at a time. Never put your family through the confusion and nervous irritation accompanying an entire house upset. I would never think of starting a period of house cleaning without first taking cook of my pantry shelves. I have found time for a number of years of canned soup, vegetables, fish and several meats. One of the most practical ways to start a busy week is to have a baked ham for Sunday dinner. It will slice to advantage to the last outside piece, affording a nourishing dish every day, leaving out, of course, the serving of the ham on Tuesday.

Dr. O. J.

O. J. ALLEN chosen may seem strange and peculiar but I trust that Divine strength may be given to make a spiritual application. Said he, "When the Jewish authorities asked the officers, who had been sent to arrest Jesus, why they had not brought him they replied by saying, 'Never man spake like this man.' This has been the testimony of all people of every age, friends and enemies alike. Perhaps many of us have asked why are the teachings of Jesus so attractive? Oor so lasting? Thru all the ages His words ring true. If we examine His teachings we find that the truths which He presented. He gave His listeners without reasoning on them. He linked Divine truths with common things and incidents of life. Familiar objects were associated with thoughts of truth and beauty. Thus the lessons of Divine wisdom were forcibly impressed. When He would impress the Heavenly Father's love, He told them the story of the Prodigial Son. When He would emphasize the truth of the Judgment, He reminded them of the sheep and the goats'. When He wanted to teach them the lesson of neighborly love, He told the story of the Good Samaritan. Thus it was said of Him, that He spake as one having authority and not as the scribes." Dr. Allen said, "Man can only learn the unknown by the known. A child must learn mathematics by counting rocks, sticks, etc. So heavenly things can be learned only as we associate them with earthly things.

Sanctions Fourth Annual Competition on Armstrong Field. Hampton, Va., Mar. 26—Hampton Institute will hold its fourth annual track and field meet on Armstrong Field on Saturday May 16. The meet is sanctioned by the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which is a member of the National Colegiate Athletic Association. Each year the number of schools competing has increased. Competition has been keener and many C. I. A. a records have been broken at the Hampton meets. F. A. Byrd of Lincoln and W. C. Cook of Union, are the joint holders of the record of 10 1-5 seconds for the 100-yard dash that has stood for three years. W. C. Cook of Union is also the holder of the record of 22 1-5 seconds for the 220-yard dash. He has won this event for three years straight. The 440-yard dash has made a change each year. J. T. Langston of Hampton set the first record of 53-2-5 seconds in 1922, Leo Robinson of Howard lowered it to 51 3-5 seconds in 1923, and J. T. Langston brought it down to 51 2-5 seconds in 1924. The pole vault has gone up from 9 feet 3 inches in 1922 by L. Baker of Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute to 10 feet in 1924, by George Stephens of Hampton. The high jump record went up as follows: 5 feet 10 inches in 1922 by W. C. Cook of Union; 6 feet in 1923 by F. A. Byrd of Lincoln, and 6 feet 3-4 inches by T. Young of Morgan College in 1924. Robert A. Coles jr., Hampton's present track captain, holds the record, 10 minutes 36 1-5 seconds, for the 2-mile run. It has been gratifying to note the increase in the entries of the scholastic group each year. The high schools are developing some very promising athletes. Robinson of the Shaw Junior High, Washington, D. C., holds the record of 10 1-5 seconds and 22 seconds respectively in the 100-yard dash and the 220-yard dash. The mile relay has been a nip-and-tuck affair each year. Bordentown won the event for two years, Dunbar High of Washington, D. C., took the Wilberforce University Quint Makes High Record BY DEAN MOHR Basketball in the Middle West is probably more highly developed than in any other section of the country. Wilberforce, West Virginia, and Simmons University have teams which rank with the best in the country. Wilberforce holds a unique position in basketball because the Wilberforce team plays both white and colored teams. In selecting an All Mid-West team, the task is much easier this season since the first five stand out above the other players. The forward positions go to shot and a wonderful passer. He is a southpaw which is to his advantage in deceiving his opponent. Woods of Simmons is without a doubt the best of the lot of center. He is a wonderful floor man and good on the defense. Wu Fang Ward of Wilberforce is one of the greatest basketball players of all times. He is a clever and heady player. He is a past master with the dribble. He scored consistently and was high point man on his team. He is a dangerous man both offensively and Drain of West Virginia and Lewis of Wilberforce. Drain is selected because of his superior floor work and basket shooting. He has an unerring eye for the basket and with his shooting has been able to keep his team at the front. Lew- is of Wilberforce is a very good defensively. Harding of Wilberforce although not the finished product as his teammate, is the logical candidate for the other guard position. He is aloof roamer and very good on the defense with the ability to break into the scoring column.

SEMINARY ROMPS OVER A.&T.QUINT SEMINARY ROMPS OVER A.&T.QUINT Lynchburg, Va. March 26—The Va. Seminary Whirlwinds closed their home basketball schedule by decisively defeating their ancient rivals, the Farmers. This was the last Association game of the season. The Dragons were fighting for second place honors in the Association and had tasted the Farmers' blood before. This caused them to put forth greater efforts and fight as they had never fought before. The score does not tell the story of the game because the Farmers refused to give up and fought back until the echoes of the final whistle had ended the game. Streater for A. and T. and "Bob" Kornegay were the outstanding fighters for the Tartheel bunch. These lads fought desperately but the breaks were against them. In accuracy in shooting and the fast pace set by the Whirlwinds proved their undoing. Whedbee was, as usual, the star of the game, scoring 10 points of the Dragons'. Hoyle was high scorer of the evening with 13 points, which was equal to the number made by the whole A. and T. team. Stepteo played the best game he has played this season, though he only scored four points. Perry and Watson were there on the defensive and kept down A and shot and a wonderful passer. He is a southpaw which is to his advantage in deceiving his opponent. Woods of Simmons is without a doubt the best of the lot of center. He is a wonderful floor man and good on the defense. Wu Fang Ward of Wilberforce is one of the greatest basketball players of all times. He is a clever and heady player. He is a past master with the dribble. He scored consistently and was high point man on his team. He is a dangerous man both offensively and defensively.

The substitutes had seen the light and kept the Whirlwind pace. Patrick, Walker, Brown and Holland, like their team-mates played a great game. The Whirlwinds covered themselves with glory having lost but two Association games. They will probably rank second in the Association. This is a great improvement over past performances.

March 26—The Midgets upset the dope when they beat Sheives of Wissihickon Fame Flashes in a hard fought battle. Jimmie Chafin was high scorer with six points. Sheives was close- ly guarded by Manrice Woods and allowed two points for the evening. Booth was the outstanding player for the Flashes while the Midgets worked more like a machine and it was this passing system that kept the Flashes guessing and later defeated them. Too much credit cannot be given the Midgets who are boys not over 15 years of age, but play like demons, Chafin, Tom King, and the Woods boys will bear watching. THE LINEUP Midgets—14 Flashes—12 R.

College. Nine letter men of last year's team will be seen in the lineup. A wealth of new material is being whipped into shape. Every day the weather permits, the boys find their way to the field. About 45 men answered the call of Coach Byarm. With Greer, Alston, Seral, Colson, and Norcott as pitchers, A and T. can boast of having one of the strongest staff of hurriers that has ever represented this institution. Alston, and Seral are new-comers and both have plenty of stuff. Those making good among the new-comers for the other positions are, P. Brown, out field. Armstrong, out field, Henderson T. Titty and Harris. Harris, a new-comer, is making a good showing as relief catcher for Duncan. A week or ten days training will determine just who will be called to fill the nine positions for the Gold and Blue. Our schedule will follow at the next issue of this paper. ARMSTRONG HIGH DEFEATED BY THE V.N.I.I. SEXTETTE Petersburg, Va., March 21—Saturday night in Richmond, Miss Pearmans' girls of V. N. I. I. aided and abetted by Miss Gillespie a nymph-like creature with an uncanny eye for the basket proved too much for the fair Armstrong lassies of Richmond in a basketball game full of spirit and thrills from the first whistle to the last. This game marked the first and only victory for V. N. I. I. during the season. The game was close and hard fought all the way never more than two points separating the two teams, at the end of the first half the score read 6-7 with V. N. I. I on the long end. This lead proved too much for the Richmond girls to over come and at the end V. N. I. was leading, 10-8. Features of the game were the shooting of Gillespie for V. N. I. I., ably assisted by Vaughn, with the guarding of White and Shields, and all-round work of the centers, Creekmur and Butler. Armstrong as a team played well, while Miss Cogbill was a shining light.

Porter, the pride of Portsmouth, was practically out on his feet early in the fourth round and was constantly jarred by right and left jolts to the head and face. The referee stepped in an stopped the fight to save the fast waning Porter from further punishment and awarded the fight to the sailor. Jackson outclassed the Portsmouth lad at every angle of the game. Both men fought in the clinches with one hand free practically throut the short scrap. When the gong sounded ending the third round Porter was bleeding freely about the mouth and nose. Both fighters answered the gong for the fourth round and fel into a clench. Jocky Jackson began hammering away on Porter's body and shifted the attack to the face and head. It was clearly seen the Porter was no match for the navy battler, however he was game and was taking his medicine without a grumble. Wilson Floors Opponent Russell "Kid" Wilson, of Norfolk knocked Kid Williams of Portsmouth through the ropes for the fatal count of ten in the third round of their 6-round semi-wind-up. Wilson weighed in at 173 and Williams at 168. The opening round was tame, which is characteristic of the beginning of all of Wilson's scraps. Both men began to land frequently, but ineffectively. Wilson put over a clean right to Williams' head and followed him up dropped him for the count of eight. Williams was dropped again for a count of nine in the second round. In the third period Wilson and Williams began to mix the scrapping, with the former landing solid cracks to the latter's body and head. In a furious mix up near the ending of the round, Williams was sent through the ropes and was counted out. Tommy Butler and Six Second Faison went four rounds to a draw. Both men showed signs of weariness and lacking the necessary punch to rock his opponent for the count. This scrap was serious from gong to gong with neither man gaining the edge and both showing inability to stand the gaff. A passing blow from either man would have put the other away for keeps.

Lasses was fast gaining the edge over Snowden until the lucky punch landed, flooring him. Both men are new comers in the game and indications point to promising career for the amateurs. Snowden was a reigning favorite on that side of the little pond and his victory was received with an obstreperous outburst of applause. He is credited with two knockouts over Norfolk scrappers. The first squabble on the program was between Johsson and Wilson, both of Norfolk and rivals in the amateur fist circles. This battle was bloody and furious throughout the four rounds and was featured by the gameness of Wilson and his ability to absorb the terrific lacing administered by his opponent. Johnson weighed in at 125 pounds and Wilson a 138, a thirteen pound advantage on his conqueror. School Eattler Scores The Johnson-Wilson argument was listed among the best on the card and fans clapped for a knockout from the former who was unable to put over the finishing punch. The harder he hit Wilson the faster he would come in for more staggering around groggy from the batting.

The second round found Johnson carrying the fight to Wilson, meeting him in his corner before he could get set. In this stanza, Wilson came in for a terrible battering about the head and face and the gore began to flow from his breathing apparatus. Johnson tried hard to land a decisive blow, but Wilson took everything and waded in for more. In the third round Wilson staggered from his corner a beaten man only to run into a fullside of blows that reeled and rocked him from head to foot. He fell into a clinch to save himself only to be battered more. Here he showed his ability to absorb punishment like a sponge absorbing water. Bleeding and battered mercilessly he clung to Johnson to avoid the finishing blow. Wilson was hardly able to leave his corner to answer the gong for the opening of the fourth and last round. He was out on his feet, but too game to give up. Johnson peeled him with blows ere he could put up his hands to protect himself, but he soon fell into a clinch. He hugged at every chance and pulled the clinging vine stuff until the gong sounded ending his misery. Jack Rabbit $ 5.00 MEN'S SHOES BEST IN THE WORLD FOR SALE BY M.J.MADDEN&SON 571 CHURCH ST.

All of the fights on the card staged under the auspices of the American Legion were exceptionally good. Nearly all of the scrapers came out of their frys with the carmarks and scars of warfare somewhere on their persons. MOREHOUSEWINS OVER CLARK U. MOREHOUSEWINS OVER CLARK U. Atlanta, Ga., March 26—Morehouse began the baseball season of 1925 by defeating Clarke University 7-1. Rain fell for an hour before the game making the field slow and heavy. The first part of the game was a pitcher's battle between Jennings of Clark and "Leety" Coleman of Morehouse. But in the third inning Clark's defense cracked and before it could rally, two runs had crossed the home plate. Rogers and Coleman fanned to begin the third, but Dunn singled to left, Hawkins hit to center and reached third when the ball went through the legs of McGinnis, Dunn scoring. Hawkins scored on Idlet's hit to left. J. Williams forced Idlet. Morehouse tallied twice in the fourth inning when, after, Lock- Beautiful Spiritual Records FOR EASTER Papa Charlie Jackson's Latest And Greatest Records Are Ready For You No. 12236—Sally Dog Blues No. 12259—The Cat's Got The Measles—The Dog's Got The Whooping Cough By the Famous Norfolk Quartette If your dealer hasn't the Paramount records you want, check them on the coupon below, and mail to us.

The victory gave the Wil- berforce boys the intercollegiate championship and an .814 stand- ing for their regular season, the results of thirteon of their sixteen games having been recorded on the right hand side of the ledger. Paul Redden of the Wilberforce quintet played his farewell contest before a home audience, being scheduled to pass on via the grad- uate route. Redden took advant- age of his last appearance to im- press followers of the Green and Gold with his ability to blank his man and to find the hoop for one field goal. Capt, “Country” Lewis of the Wilberforee team was the high point man of the evening with 13 markers, six field goals and one, foul goal. . ‘Although tallying seven™ paints, Wu Fang Ward was one of the heroes of the contest, stopping the West Virginia offense several times: when it threatened to function | smoothly. Huff, Harding, Jackson | and Washington played a steady game. kA Capt. Drain was the high point man and. the, individual star at the West Virginia teat, He made twelve points, six field goals.

LONG CLOSES BUSINESS FORMULA SERIES OF SPECIAL DECLARES PASTOR SERMONS SUNDAY PAGE SIX Rev. F. W. Williams Delivers Impressive and Strong Trade Week Sermon To Business Men Sunday Morning. Taking his text from a part of The Semon on the Mount, the Commandment which reads, "Thou shalt love the Commandment bor as yourself." Rev. F. W. Williams, being cognizant of the beginning of Trend Week in the city, chose for his subject last Sunday morning, "Business and Religion." From this topic he emphasized three fundamental points, namely; (1) Kind of Business; (2) Method; (3) Motive that should control business. The pastor declared that honesty and integrity must be the guiding principles of a business that would enjoy permanent success, and this prime requisite must be reinforced with sound judgment of the underlying principles of the business engaged in. The Commandment, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as yourself," should be sacredly regarded by the business man of any community, Dr. Williams emphasized, asserting that man and his soul are the first considerations of his business. Get right with God and you will deal with your neighbor honestly was the pastor's strong admonition. Men too often try to get too much for so little, and honest men will not put first' quality labels on inferior products. Every truly upright man in business keeps his ledger as straight and clean as the scriptures, he eloquently exclaimed. Dr. Williams urged business man to depend not on building up trade on anything man could buy, was his advice, but the carrying of the same class of goods for the same price as any other merchant was the important thing. At the close of this pointed and eloquent sermon the pastor asked every person in the audience engaged; in any sort of business to stand. These persons were introduced and the nature of their business mentioned by the pastor, THIS SUNDAY MAN HOLDS POWER REIGN AT THE MONUMENTAL THIS SUNDAY MAN HOLDS POWER REIGN AT THE MONUMENTAL At 11:30 the pastor will preach from the subject: "ONE LORD: ONE PATHY AND ONE BAPTISM." The choir of the church will render special music. The congregation will be treated with selections by the "Sparkling Four." Quartet to worship at Monumental Sunday morning will be an inspiration to all. Visitors are cordially invited to hear this masterly pulpitteer, Dr. A. C. Clagg. Sunday at 3:30 p. m., m. m. messages boys under 16 or women will be allowed. The pastor will speak to men on the subject: "When Chickens Come Home To Roost." Men, this is something different. A regular he-mans message: a knock-out straight from the shoulder. Every man should hear it. He is a regular fellow with a message hot from the heart. Junior, Intermediate and Senior League At 7:45 p. m., there will be a plaformate meeting. Prof. Puris Chessham, A. B., and Atty. David H. Edwards, the senior of the class, will perform the Music will be furnished by the 'New Four' Quartet. The Sunday school orchestra, directed by Prof. Bray, will be in evidence. Introduction of master of ceremonies by Pres. E. Jackson. Class remarks by the pres. A. Clark. These services throughout the day will be under the auspices of Monumental Brotherhood and the men of the church are asking every one to help them put over the "Men's Day" program. ETHIOPIA AT THE BAR OF JUSTICE A Pugent depicting the rise and progress of the Negro race, presented by the dramatic club of the Monumental, A. M. E. Church in the near future. Date to be announced later. This pugent is filled with emotion and enthusiasm and will be appreciated by the entire community. Special Service For Married Couples For the first time in Norfolk's history a special service will be held for married couples at the First Baptist Church this Sunday afternoon at three o'clock. Rev. Richard H. Bowling, the pastor, will deliver a message of special interest to men and women who are married. This service was first announced at the close of the meeting for men only last Sunday. At that time Rev. Bowling declared that he confidently belied, many homes would be saved from ruin and that love would be reborn in many a family as a result of this service for the married. It is requested that only married people or those who have been married will attend this meeting. No single persons will be allowed. No matter how old, no bachelors or old maids will be made welcome. A chorus made up of married singers will furnish music. Every usher will be either a husband, wife, widow or widower. 'When Chickens Come Home To Roost' Rev. A. C. Clark, the new pastor of Monumental A. M. E. Church, will preach a special sermon to men Sunday afternoon, March 29, at 3:30 o'clock on the subject, "When Chickens Come Home To Roost." Dr. Clark comes to Norfolk bearing a sentiment of being an able minister, a powerful preacher and a regular fellow. A large crowd is expected to avail itself of the opportunity of hearing him preach for the first time next Sunday. "Positively no boys under sixteen years of age, or women will be allowed at this service. 'Present And Former State of The Christian," to be Final Subject; Discourses Being Highly Enjoyed. According to premise and advertisements, on Sunday morning, March 16th Rev. Long opened up an interesting series of sermons covering three successive Sundays. His first sermon was addressed to the men of this church and the city generally. On that occasion, there were present about three hundred men and boys, and as many or more ladies and girls. The message, based upon the subject of "The World's Society Man," was unique throughout and made a deep impression upon the vast audience. The points advanced in this argument, forth the fact, that "The society Man," in the parable of the Injustice Steward, could not dig or work, was ashamed to beg, and therefore resolved to atal. This said the speaker is the last resort of any man, unless endowed, who neither works nor begs. Begging was discouraged, and all present urged to hard and honest daily Last Sunday morning, Rev. Long spoke from the second subject of the series: "The Christian's Expectation." The sermon was a forceful arrangement of sceffers at the Christian religion. In the course of his sermon, Rev. Long took the second coming of Christ. Opposed to those who insist that Christ's coming is but the idle talk of dreamers, and that at most it is to be regarded as mythical, the speaker took ground that that great event looked forward to by all nations and peoples is certain to take place, a fact being evidenced by the fulfilling of the Scriptures in the time in which we are now living. What may sequestrate God's delay in bringing the word to an end is the manifestation of His love and tender mercy that men may avail themselves of the chance for redemption. The sermon concludes with an eloquent plea to Christians. Expectation may be one that offers to him the be found in peace, in holiness without spot and blameless. without space. Another large audience was on hand in the afternoon when the pastor preached the 43rd anniversary sermon of Dr. Armistead, Portsmouth. Next Sunday morning he will close out this very interesting series with a discussion of the subject: "The Former and Present State of the Christian." Large attendance is looked for at that hour. The choir is singing as it has never sung before. All are invited to witness this great Gospel and musical treat. 'GOING TO HEAVEN ON STREET CAR,' STRIKING SERMON (Continued from page 3.) on. Salvation's car runs on two rails. "To will and to do His good pleasure." Salvation is made possible by concurrence of two factors; namely, our will and God's will. It is when they run parallel and in the same direction that we progress. The track was spoken of by Isa. 35:8; and Jesus himself said, "Narow is the way that leadeth to life eternal." This is the only way and it costs much to build it. God gave His only Son, to fix the track or way for salvation's car to run on. It cost Jesus His life. The Trolley and the Wire (2). The trolley wire. The wire in itself amounts to but very little. It merely serves as a medium thru which the power acts. The wire of man's salvation thru which the power of the Holy Spirit works is the Bible. "Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God." O that more would search the scriptures for in them we have eternal life. There is no power in the leaves of print but they act as a medium thru which the message and power are carried. The motorman turns the lever and the power comes. So if we would turn the leaves of the blessed old book and read it and as was told John "eat it up" would have thousands of lukewarm Christians on fire for the Lord. The organization of 50 Cottage Bible Classes in our church is to get the people to have more power with God. The Pole and The Trolley (3). The Pole and the Trolley I am sure oil of you have seen the little wheel that hugs the wire and the pole that keeps it up also conveying electricity to the motor. There is no power in the little wheel to pull the car, but let it jump off and the car stops, the lights will go out and all is motionless. The Christian Life has its trolley. It is faith, that makes the connection, an dlinks the feebleness of man with the omnipotence of God. Faith is the channell thru which the power of God saves the soul. Without faith it is impossible to please Him. Well may we sing, "My faith looks up to Thee Thou Lamb of Calvary, Savior Divine." The man who would follow Jesus must give up everything and step on the bridge of His promises by faith and walk on across Salvation's shores. The Motorman (4). The Motorman. The motorman has the car under his control. He turns the power on as he wills. Likewise our car of Salvation is under our control—Jesus said, "Whoseover will let him come." The trolley can't move altho the dynamo keeper may have the wires charged with bolts of electricity, unless the motorman turns on the power. It takes two wills to be saved. The will of God and the will of man, any they must be in harmony. The very essence of all sin is a will set up against God's will. The moment a man or woman comes to Jesus by faith and surrenders his way of living and takes Jesus as his Savior, that moment he or she will be saved. The apostle here says, "Work out your own salvation." It is ours if we so desire it. The motorman speaks of the car he runs as, "My Car." It is his in a certain sense for it is entrusted into his hands. He did not build it nor is he rich enough to buy it. The same is true with the car of our salvation. We can not buy it, it is the gift of God. We are to keep, "Our bodies as a living sacrifice." The Cat (5). The Car. The car is seated, lighted and warmed so as to make it comfortable for those who wish to ride. The comforts derived draws people, make them have a desire to ride. Thus we have the wire of His word, the pole and trolley of faith and are a willing motorman turning on His power by studying to be a workman that needeth not be as ashamed, but should so live that men will have a desire to ride in salvation's car and be saved from the appalling effects of sin. Finally all trolley cars must be taken from the track and placed in barns to be greased and repaired. The Church is God's car barn to grease the sons of men with His love and repair them for service to humanity. Therefore no one should neglect attending Church, to get inspiration to put over God's program. The people are ready and waiting at every corner to ride. "The field is ripe and ready for harvest but the laborers are few." The people of God in Norfolk should stand up for right and righteousness and pray one united prayer, "Lord send the power just now and baptize every one."

It was instituted in eternity by the Father; practiced by angels and further instituted in earth for the rescue of mankind. The worship of God is an eminent part of religion and prayer is the chief part of religious worship. It is one of the chief means of grace that influences the divining will. It places the human will in harmony with the divine and acknowledges the freedom of man and the sovereignty of God," said Rev. B. W. Dance, pastor of the Third Baptist Church, Portsmouth, at the Bute Street Church last Monday. "Many a church today is complaining because of the poorly attended and lifeless meetings and wondering whether they are headed for Utopia or the lowwows. Having passed the argumentative stage the truth comes up to the church purely that she has almost reached the age until she evacuates from the works of the devil and draws nearer to God. It may quite as well be rendered by the present day believers in that the evil of such as dancing, grumbling, poisoning and the operation of intoxicants, the most of rightfulness outstanding evils in the way of righteousness could not exist if the church would withdraw its support but these evils will persist until they are abolished by the church" declared the speaker. "To inspire the prayer meeting, begin the meeting on time. That will help others to be prompt. Use an instrument at opening and closing of the service. That will increase interest, especially among the young people. Long lifespan hymns and prayers should be avoided. They curb the life of the meeting. They use them. They make stronger and devout and spiritually minded. The members should be invited to express themselves occasionally. That will waken interest among them all. The leader should not make, dull dreary and disinteresting talks. That will decrease the attendance. Don't insist that they stand up low to make noise. That will increase the meeting on time. That will increase the attendance. Don't exceed one hour and thirty minutes, except that, on occasion the interest may justify protracting the exercises. That will exhaust interest. Religious meetings were never designed to become tiresome. Close before the spirit leaves. "The average prayer meeting of today seems to be more conventional more than objective. Simple customer meetings will never strengthen the moral fiber of the people. To specify an objective would cultivate and pray for a specific cause would cultivate the meeting wonderfully. "That is why the prayer meeting department of a revival is more inspired and productive than the regular church prayer meeting. They pray for the conversion of souls for Christ, and for a spiritual awakening of the church and community, and these civid achievements, keeps the revival prayer meeting alive, and gives them a tenacious influence against sin. "An object expected is the answer in wait to a fervent prayer. Expectation is inspiration within itself. The expectation of the Holy Spirit was the inspiration of the apostle's prayer meeting at Jerusalem. The conference of liberty was the inspiration of the imposition of Palm and Silas. The imposition of Divine revelation and interpretation of the King's dream was the inspiration of Daniel's prayer meeting in Babylon. The hope of the resurrection of Dorcas was the inspiration of a meeting held by widows and orphans at Joppa. The anticipated liberty of the apostle Peter was the quickening of a meeting in Mary's house at Jerusalem. The unifying of the apostle Gentiles was the lifelong meeting held at the home of the Apostle, at Caesarea." The vote of approval, many comments and hand shakes were extended the speaker. Norfolk Pastor Conducts Great Revival Out of City Rev. Nelson B. Brown, of this city, conducted a two weeks' revival at Shiloh (Old Site) Baptist Church, Fredrickburg, Va. It has been conceded by the people that it was one of the greatest revivals in the history of the church. Both young and old accepted the revival and were twenty-five years were reclaimed. Dr. Brown used a subject on one occasion: "The Master Is Here and Calleth for Thee." It was a sermon of great power. Crowds were turned away every night. EASTERN ST.

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE SPECIALTRADEWEEK SERMON HEARD BY CITY BUSINESS MEN Rev. R. H. Bowling Reminds Group of The Reliability of God Even In Every Activity of The Day. "Trade Week" got off to a good start at the First Baptist Church last Sunday morning. Special seats reserved for colored men and women in business were filled with representatives of law, dentistry, medicine, and by agents and managers of insurance companies, by florists, painters, cafe proprietors, butchers, grocers, cleaners and pressers, hucksters, hardharders and tailors, draymen, beauty specialists, etc. Each man or woman was presented to the audience by the pastor with an admonition that the people patronize them especially during Trade Week but after that also. Mr. E. M. Mitchell, the originator of the idea, made a brief talk setting forth the program for the week and urging patronage of colored business and professional folk by colored people. Belying On God Following this the pastor, Rev. Richard H. Bowling, preached a short but helpful sermon on the Reliability of God, using as a text the words of Psa. 90:2: "Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God." Said he, "There is much about us that is changing, the climate, the sort of physical life on the earth, ideas concerning what is right and wrong, even ideas of God. But in spite of these considerations, there need be no resort to the doctrine attitude of despair. There is something dependable in the universe. As set forth in our text, God is reliable, he can be depended upon. God And Philosophy God And Philosophy "The thinker can rely on God. For no theory in regard to the ultimates can begin or end without some value equivalent to God. God supplies the missing postulate for any satisfying theory of the origin of things. One may refrain from taking literally the cosmogony of Genesis, but he cannot get away from the truth revealed in those opening words: 'In the beginning God!' * * * * Differ as you will regarding this or that religion or theology, but each is a testimony to the universal presence of God. He is in h His world. His impact is vital on the universal consciousness. God And Trouble "And the man in trouble can rely on God. The coming of losses is no sign of his withdrawal from your life. No loss you can sustain argues God out of your life. He is still there. The fifty-first Psalm is the prevailing prayer of a man guilty of both murder and adultery. Financial loss or the loss of health is often just one of the ways God uses to come even more intimately into one's life. Even in death God is with us. Humanity, like grass, may be perishable and transitory, but God is from everlasting_to everlasting." SAYS REVEALING OF MAN'S WEAKNESS MEANSHIS UNDOING "And it came to pass, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, so that his soul was vexed unto death; that he told her all his heart, and said unto her, there has not come a razor unto mine head; for I have been a Nazarite unto God from my mother's womb. If I be shaven, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak, and he like any other man."—Judges 17:16. 17. With the above quotation, I wish with Sampson's revelation of the source of his strength to the sermon last Sunday at Calvary Baptist Church on the subject. "Secrets That Men Should Not Divulge." Defining secrets that men should never reveal as his Strength and his Weakness, the minister declared: "If a man is mortally weak, he must fight against it within himself until he has mastered it in a way that will rebound to his glory and to the glory CHURCH DIRECTORY GRACE P.

When a man parades his moral weakness he a further workken himself, with himself and in the estimation of others. Those who are not as weak as he is will not respect him, nor will he even be respected by others equally as morally weak as himself. They will seek to drug him further into the depths of degradation. If a wife knows her husband is morally weak, or a daughter knows her father to be a moral weakling, regardless of how well this man provides for his home, he will not enjoy the respect of a father and husband by his loved ones. The man who is immoral and heads a home has not the respect, not the influence that home itself is not conquered by being friendly but is by the power to keep it hid that it may be ashamed and afraid to reveal itself. "I do not mean argue that immorality is harmless no long as it is a secret, for you cannot practice it without it being known. The host and only way to keep secret that which will harm you is to hide it not only from others, but from yourself by banishing it from your life. "Man's financial weakness should not be revealed, for when he allows it to become known that he is without money, and cannot get it, his associates generally lose respect for him and shun his company, for fear that he may desire to borrow that which he can never pay. man's wife will grow tired of him if he is constantly parading behind his financial weakness; his inability to supply the home with the prime necessities. Many homes have gone to wreck, because he whose duty it is to always appear before his family and has constantly revealed his weakness. The whining husband soon becomes the kitten in the home, and quite often is supplanted by illustrious wife. "Men you should strive at all times to prove your strength as men. Be industrious. If conditions in one place are so that you are kept down and your family finally becomes to look upon you as spindles, move elsewhere and begin anew that you might always retain the respect of your home. "Man should not reveal the weakness of man. When a man reveals the weakness of the love in his home by consorting with other women, disrespect by his wife is immediate. Sampson was taken off with sweet words of Delilah. 'How canest thou say I love thee, when thine heart is not with me.' She worked on him daily until she could hardly tolerate her plumbing, and a strong man reveals the secret by telling her 'all his heart.'" Hear Rev. C. P.

(Adv:) Two Letters O The first written twenty years ago, the second recently by Mrs. J. H. Bourland, Frankston. Texas. June 2, 1904, she writes: "For twenty-three years I was a constant sufferer from chronic catarrh. I had a severe misery and burning in the top of my head, a continual dropping of mucus into my throat causing frequent expectoration. My entire system became involved and I grew worse. It seemed as if my body was constantly cough and frequent attacks of biliary colic. My bowels were affected, causing alarming hemorrhages. I tried many remedies and finally took Pe-ru-na. In three days I was relieved of my bowel trouble and entirely cured by five bottles. I most cheerfully recommend Pe-ru-na." June 30, 1924. Mrs. Bourlain writes again: "I will soon be seventy-nine years old and enjoy god health for one of my age. I still recommend Pe-ru-na and take it myself when necessary." For more than half a century Pe-ru-na has a proud record of good done. Men and women the world over stand ready to testify to its value in the treatment of all catarrhal disorders. Send 4 cents postage to the PE-RI-NA COMPANY, Columbus, Ohio, for book on catarrh. Pe-ru-na in either tablet or liquid form sold everywhere.

Armistead, former pastor of Zion Baptist Church, whose 43 years pastorate there was fittingly celebrated last week in church honors, received a commitment from active pulpit service, has had a career marked with notable achievement. That he has during his nearly half century as a pastor in Portsmouth, endeared himself to the masses and the classes was conclusively proven by the large crowds that attended each night of the celebration and the cooperation given by the pastors of the city and their congregations. Each night some auxiliary of the church presented the retiring pastor, and a grateful congregation is allowing him a pension of $100.00 a month.

He was president of State Convention for eight years; chairman of State Mission Board for 24 years; chairman of trustees of Virginia Seminary for 5 years; treasurer of Lott-Cary Convention for 5 years; editor of the Virginia Baptist, 19 years. He has own church; church set aside 1 mission; served in the City Council of the City of Portsmouth, 1 year, refusing to serve the second term in order to devote his whole time to his church work. He has lost by death, 13 deacons and 6 trustees. He has been a Mason for 52 years and received the degree of D. D. from Virginia Union University.
