Hill is said to have admitted that he did not mean to do Nelson then demanded pay for the cut garment, adding that the suit cost him $67.00. Hill pleaded that he was without funds, but was willing to pay for the coat when ever he became able to do so. Nelson pulled off the garment and offered it to Hill, telling him to take it as it then belonged to him. This Hill who was a great deal smaller than Nelson, declined to do. Nelson put the coat back on, and asked what he was that he answered that he had nothing and drew his hand out, frisked himself in the presence of the other man in an attempt to assure him that he had nothing concealed. Threatens Arrest Nelson told Hill that he was going to have him arrested for cutting the coat, and started off. Suddenly he stopped, it is said, and remarked, "Well, I know it's wrong, but I must do it." In the meantime he was drawing his pistol, and once the weapon was exposed he aimed point blank at his victim and fired. Hill tried to seek refuge behind a telegraph post, but Nelson walked a few feet outwards, got a clear view of him, and fired another bullet, which entered Hill's temple. When two policemen arrived on the scene, having heard the shot, Nelson was standing over the body of his victim with gun in hand. He offered the pistol to the officers, and said, "I wasn't going to run." He claims that he shot his victim after an attempt had been made to cut him. The officers stated that when the dead man's body was removed, a knife was found under the edge of it. Nelson claims to have shot his victim in self-defense. MAYORES IN PULPIT "York, Eng.

Last year five delegates were sent from this city, every one of them returning so much inspired with the work that they have bent every effort during this year to help influence other girls to "Follow the Gleam." This year our quota is ten girls. In order to raise funds for conference expense the second annual Spring Festival will be presented early in May. From all indications this entertainment will be better staged and more beautiful than the affair of last year. The Girl Reserves are lining up in fine style for the practices and much interest and enthusiasm is displayed. Watch for the date. You can't afford to miss it. WINTON Winton, N.

I. A. A., in other words, Lincoln was shown the hole the carpenters make, when building a house, and that's the door. The almighty Lions were given the gate pronto, when they refused to adhere to the laws as set forth by the governing body, which forbade members of the clan to participate in any athletic contests with Howard, who lost its head instead of its hat and the Association where to get off. From the first game between Lincoln and Union in Norfolk, labeled as the Classic of Tidewater, prospects looked very promising, but BANG! the dirty work was done and there will be no more Tidewater Classic—not this year unless something spectacular happens and that doesn't seem to be in the making. It can be well remembered too, that Lincoln and Union had just buried the hatchet and resumed athletic relations and the game here was the first since they had decided to let by-gones be by-gones. But old "Pop" C. I. A. A. has dropped the axe and says Lincoln nor Howard can play in the back vards of his "lil Chilluns." Lincoln was also scheduled to play St. Paul here the coming pig skin season, but that's all off now. This means that the city beside the sea will only get one college clash during 1925, unless some fairy prince comes to the fore. Though it's been whispered here and there that a great intersectional clash will be witnessed here, but that's nothing but whispers and whispers don't always mean anything—more about that as it takes on definite shape. Who's right in the C. I. A. A. and who's wrong? The subject has been touched on so much and no new light has been thrown on it that it's almost a past issue so far as the first sentence is concerned. A contract is a contract and that's thin. Lincoln's fist has been affixed to the contract and she has to fulfill it or else—maybe. You can't justly blame folks for living upto contracts. It seems that the C. I. A. A. should only temporarily suspend Lincoln until her agreements with Howard is fulfilled—oh well! that's their business, not mine. I have enough collumnic trouble without trying to unravel the other fellow's. Interesting Indeed On glancing through the various releases, so forth and so on, something very interesting came to my attention which may, if passed on create the same feeling of elation that tickled me silly, and no fooling. What I mean, if this don't give you a kick, I'd like to see inside of your dome. John J. McGraw, and you know who he is—well, he ranks Joe Gans, the "Old Master," the greatest fighter of all times, barring nobody, red, white, black, blue, green, purple or polka dot, born with or without a tail and that's not saying a little bit either. This baseballbaby doesn't even bar the big babies, such as Jim Corbett at his best, Jack Johnson, Jim Jeffries, Boffitzinnings and Jack Dempsey—and this Gans fellow was a fighting phool, the wonder of wonders, a hard hitting hitter, a boxing boxer, fast and hendy, shifty and crafty, just as game as gameness is game, a willing mixer never afraid to fight and a whole lot more besides. Gans has nearly always been rated as the greatest serapher that ever donned a stuffed glove. Sometimes some wise acre comes to the front with some other fighters, but there is always some old timer who will rise up in the defense of our " Joe."

Norfolk boasts of quite a few good leather pushers who will, no doubt make their mark in the pugulistic world. Topping the list is Battling Joe Sampson, lightweight champion of Norfolk and its surrounding ferritory. Joe is a hard hitting, and rough going baby, having mixed with some of the best in his class. North and South. Next down the line, worthy of mentioning comes Russell "Kid" Wilson, the big bruising light heavyweight who has put away all opponents pitted against him. To his credit, he has knockout victories over Battletling Sessions, James Weldon and Kid Williams. Sessions was put away last May, Weldon and Williams were sent to the land of sweet dreams not so very long ago. Williams being the latter to be pasted good and hard. He was sent through the ropes for the count Tuesday of last week. There are several other promising young scrappers who will make their mark by perseverance. Of course, K. O. Brown is well known and I may venture to say, he has made his mark, that is, he has met and defeated some of the best in his class. Brown is in town now and from all appearances he has not lost any of his old ring prowess. Plans are now under way to stage some fistic struggles here in the near future, with some of this best local talent on the card. If plans run true to form, the bouts will be staged around the 17th or 18th at the Attacks. The audience will probably see in action. K. O. Brown, Dutchy, Sampson, Jocky Jackson, who defeated Fred Porter in Portsmouth; Kid Bailey, another Norfolk boy who has been up the line stepping with the good ones; Russell "Kid" Wilson, Battling Sessions; Kid Lasses, Kid Snowden, of Portsmouth and one or two lesser lights in this vicinity. THE BIGGEST AND BEST COMEDIANS, SINGERS AND DANCERS FROM NEW YORK. best in spirited dancing, in fact an agile ankle constitutes everyones most prominent recollection of the show after they have seen it. But before all other in the dancing line stands Lloyd Mitchell, Flo Brown, Aurora Greeley and Lily Yuen. They have several dance numbers that are the peer of any group of dancers to be found in any one musical show. The singing contingent led by Cecil Rivers, the famous Silverton Quartette tenor, styled by many the "Chocolate" John Steel, and John Henderson the favorite of all. The comedy too is note-worthy with Irvin C. Miller and Gallie DoGaston who from curtain to curtain supply enough laughs for two musical comedies. The chorus is composed of the girls who were members of the Broadway success "Liza" which boasted of the worlds greatest chorus during its run. These girls have remained together and are known as the "Liza Girls" and are the fastest stepping group to be found in any musical show.

WILLS AND WEINERT TO MEET JUNE 19 IN NEW YORK (Special to the Journal and Guide) New York, April 9—Thursday was designated as the day for articles to be signed at the Polo Grounds A. C. for a 15-round match between Harry Wills and Charlie Weinert, of Newark for benefit of the Italian Hospital fund to be staged at the Polo Grounds June 19, with Humber J. Fugazy as the promoter. The report says, this match will bring together Dempsey's outstanding challenger, Wills, and a heavy-weight whose rise to fame was stimulated by his decisive point victory over "Dead Pan Looie." Plans are also underway to match Jimmy Slattery and Battling Siki to go on in one of the preliminaries. These men are light heavyweights, the latter having stopped Georges Carpentier, of France for the world's title, only to drop it later to the present champion, Mike Mtigue.

New York, April 9—Protest by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, at an unfortunately phrased article in "Time," employing the term "blackamoor, and other objectionable phrases, brought a prompt reply from the editor of the magazine who stated: "I agree with you, we were thoughtless and unfair. It was flippancy, not prejudice, that caused the article to which you object. I am sorry. Through you, I apologize to any of the 11,000,000 whom we may have hurt. "What amends can we make? It seems to me that the best possible amends is for us to resolve in the future to be as fair as we were up to the time of this unfortunate article."

PAUL TEAM BY J. L. WHITEHEAD Lawrenceville, Va., April 3—A host of fans of the National Past- time saw Unit S. Paul 10 to 5 on Russell Find this afternoon in the first C. I. A. A. baseball in the 1954 season. clash of the 1925 season. It was a slow, long and, for the most part listless game. Now and then a flash of brilliance by one team or the other put life in the players and gave color to the occasion. The mediocre performance of the Panther-Tiger nines today was attributed to the lack of equilibrium, over anxiety and too much certainty when it came to what would ordinarity have been sure outs, spectacular plays or easy scores. Being the first encounter of the year and with the minds of both outfits focused on the 1925 Association baseball championship, every man was ultra-precautions when a little acceleration might have saturated the game with the "pep" that is so characteristic of the diamond. Though there was a preponderance of errors and poor judgment, after all was said and done the scribes and the Pharisees attested to the genuine sportsmanship of the veteran Union team and the St. Paul promising youngsters. Leroy Williams, St. Paul's former toser went the entr eroute for the visitors. Notwithstanding the fact that the seventh and eighth innings were personally obnoxious to Leroy, he managed to pull thru the periods of vexations predicament with but four runs to his debit, two in each of the innings in which St. Paul made a desperate bid for victory. Patrick Lee started the game for St. Paul and twirled masterful ball for a couple of frames. In the third inning, with the bases loaded and his fielders in a state of inertia, Patrick turned the situation over to St. Paul's pitching ace, Jimmie Wallace, and went to the showers amid many cheers. Jimmie's delivery was seintillating, but the scoring Baptists tallied seven runs during the reign of the astute moundsman.

WILLS AND FIRPO MAY FIGHT A RETURN BOU (Special to Journal and Guide) New York, April 10—There is talk to the effect that Harry Wills and Luis Angel Firpo, may go through again with their little squabble which was enacted about a year ago. Tex Rickard who promoted the affair thinks that the fighting populace would like to see this go all over again, and Rickard is also of the opinion that if Firpo can be got into condition, that is, train seriously for a tilt that the bout would be interesting, even more so than the first mellee. Rickard was quoted as having said, that he expected to hear something definite from Dempsey within the next ten days as to whether the champion will fight again this year. Tex is thinking of staging a return Wills-Firpo bout in event Jack Dempsey decides not to do any more fighting this year. In the meantime Rickard has not given up the idea that the champion will not fight any more. It was stated that Tex has felt all along that Dempsey will go in the ring again with some opponent sometime in September, but he will be governed by what he hears from the champion or his manager, Jack Kearns, in the next ten days.

FACILITIES FOR ATHLETICS NEEDED AT HIGH SCHOOL FACILITIES FOR ATHLETICS NEEDED AT HIGH SCHOOL BY WILLEY A. JOHNSON Considering the success of boy's stunt night held at Booker Washington high school recently it would not take many such events to put over anything the school undertakes. In recent years the local school has gained considerably in popularity and a great bulk of the community supports practically all programs promoted by the institution. This speaks well for the school, student body and faculty. Booker Washington high school is reputed to be a half million dollar school, modern in all phases and second to none in the entire South, which is saying a great deal. After all was said and done, it was found that the school was not modern in all, phases so far as PRE EA Shirt And Well Known N Men's Fur Tomorrow morning wh great sale you will find ba wear, Neckwear, Hosiery, C will more than repay you f a few days ahead, you have dom if ever happens.

Brown, of Newport News, spoke at Jerusalem Baptist Church, on the occasion of Business Men's Day at the church Sunday afternoon to an appreciative audience. Mr. Brown's subject was, "The Business Life." His speech contained striking references to the state of the world today in both international and domestic relations. He lauded the stand taken by Dr. James E. Gregge, principal of Hampton Institute, in the discussion recently engaged in by the principal and the Newport News Daily Press. If ever there was a doubt in anybody's mind as to whether Hampstead was inculcating in Negro youth those principles which make for the highest manhood and womanhood, the attack by the Press and the reason set forth for the attack should forever dissipate that doubt. Mr. Brown stated in substance. He regarded this criticism of the Press as one of the highest testimonials ever paid the Institute. The church found a valiant elequent defender in Mr. Brown. He voiced his convictions that the Negro race should adhere to the principle of the African religion devoutly. In effect, he said the race should distinguish itself as being one people who will forever uphold Christ's tenets and by so doing, as he believed he prepared to inherit the Kingdom on Earth at the Creator's apology.

Brinkley Leaves Smithfield For Richmond Smithfield, Va.—Rev. J. A. Brinkley, who has pastored Hill Street Baptist Church for the last ten years will leave Sunday, April 12, to become pastor of the New Baptist Church, Richmond. As a testimonial to his service here on last Sunday the members of Hill Street Church issued the following statement: "The members of Hill Street Baptist Church and the community will long remember the Sunday, April 14, as those who chose the very successful pastor of Rev. J. A. Brinkley. Nearly ten years ago Rev. Brinkley came to Smithfield as the pastor of the Hill Street Baptist Church. He found here much work awaiting him but with faith energy and enthusiasm he set about his task. To say he has been successful is putting it mildly. For the work that he has done as the pastor of Hill Street Baptist Church and as a citizen longer than more words. His helping hand, his wise counsel, and his wonderful influence have been felt in every movement for the betterment of Smithfield and its people. "Rev. Brinkley has proven himself to be a fearless leader and a Christian Gentleman. He has endured himself not only to his own members but to all who adore manly qualities, and a living example of what a man of God should do." Rev. Brinkley is an active member of the material team. For the New Hill Street Baptist Church and Parson age is considered to be the most beautiful Church plant in the county and it compares favorably with any in the State. "Surpressed emotions were in evidence Sunday from the pupit to the door in the members, visiting ministers and the friends testified in behalf of Rev. Brinkley and their reluctance to give him the opportunity to sincerely hope that Rev. Brinkley's work will meet with even greater success in Richmond and that his life may be prolonged for greater service."

VIVIDLY PORTRAYS CHRIST'S ENTRY INTO JERUSALEM Declares His Ride Was But The Fulfilling of the Prophecy. Striking Contrasts Drawn In Sermon. "Jesus entering Jerusalem riding on an ass, was foilfilling the prophecy which A. B. H. told of his final *days*, said Dr. F. W. Williams in prefacing his eloquent sermon on Sunday morning. William Williams emphasized the fact that all things in this world are God's and it is Christ. Even as Jesus was willing to give up his colt because the Master had need for all men he will Rev. F. W. Williams to give up everything they have for the furthering of His work on earth, the pastor declared. King Jesus riding not in a charlot, not on a full blooded charger with numerous attendants wearing glittering swords, spurs and shields, but on a meek and hardhead as well as humming the first trumpet with song, strikingly impersonal Rev. Williams, because of the ride, he added, was that the world some day will be reconstructed by the teachings of this, the greatest King. What the world needs is peace of the kind Jesus Christ brought in on earth and taught during his ministry, and finally sent His Holy Spirit to lead and guide the world in all the ways of truth and righteousness. Jesus entered Jerusalem as all Christians should to shoulder responsibilities. All kindred and kind joined in the triumphant march. No color or creed in the triumphant march. There was no aggregation, examined the speaker and soon in the final grand review all visitors pass by Jesus into everlasting life. Several persons were added to the church at the close of this service. A marked increase in Sunday school attendance was noted. Mr. John Purvis was elected organizer of the Home Department, and 12 classes have already been organized. Mrs. E. V. Kidley has been training a company for the presentation of a drama to be known as "Ethiopia at the Bar of Justice." The play will be presented April 14. All fast members of the church are required to wear white to the 5 o'clock service. Some thing now has been promised. BETHEL A. M. E.

George Spice, formerly of Tarbaro, N.C., and who cared for this city to reside February 10, 1924, occurred at Nausea County Church and Sunday school Union which was held at Aller's Grove Baptist Church, Bruce, Va. Rev. Spice possesses rich experience having traveled in England, France, and Germany. He is regarded as a wideawake young man and an earnest church worker. BANK STREET BAPSTEST CHURCH The sacred rites of Holy Communion were celebrated at Bank Street Sunday morning. The pastor, Rev. C. M. Long gave a thoughtful and impressive talk on "Christ's Triumph In Our Own Lives," in which the point was stressed that the world owes its name to Jesus all that makes people and in the development of the human soul as we now see it, as well as the growth of love among mankind, as is evidenced by the many benign institutions throughout the land, to the great and shaping power of the Christian principles promulgated by our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. MT. OLIVE BAPTIST CHURCH Palm Sunday was fittingly observed in every service, the music and sermon hearing on the same. An enthusiastic audience was in evidence all day, attendance and offerings being high. The pastor was preaching the truth revealed by Christ Jesus, the effect being wonderful to the inspiration, reclamation and salvation of souls. At 3:30 p.m. m. the C. E. of the Union Christian Church visited here in a body and rendered a very fine program to the delight of all. The foundation of the new church is composed of other portions of the work,inking shape. The Willing Workers met at the residence of Mrs. Mary Easton, Avenue C.

The manner in which she showed great progress financially, and many charitable accomplishments. FIRST CALVARY BAPSTH The services Sunday were well attended and full of inspiration. Dr. O. J. Allen presided over the service his subject was: "Other Little Ships," text. Mark 4:36. In the evening his subject was, "Let's Go Hunting," text Luke 19:11. The pastor drew a beautiful picture in each sermon, showing that as we are out upon life's stormy-seeking against the waves, they should remember: the little little things. He also in the evening message pictured Jesus as the Master Hunter. He emphasized the fact that the human hunter's object alone is to kill--to kill, to kill but Jesus came to save life and give it in abundance. The persons were received into the church during the day. The Sunday school still grows, about 500 were present and the Cottage Bible Class department is climbing; 41 classes reported last Friday evening, 496 scholars attendance. The Friday evening prayer meeting is well attended and spiritual exaltation runs The interior of our church is being renovated.

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE DEMONSTRATION OF THE RESURRECTION AT MONUMENTAL Biblical Events To Be Simulated By Cast From Members And Pastor; Wonderfully Unique Service. At Monumental A. M. E. Church a demonstrator's resurrection service will be held from midnight Saturday until 5 o'clock Friday, Sunday morning. To be a witness to this demonstration service of the resurrection will be worth while to every one that will get up early enough. The angel will fly to the sepulchre at 4:40 a.m. The senior choir will resurrect Jesus. Music have been perforated that will cause has service to begin Sunday morning at Church and Chapel streets at 4 a.m. in order to accommodate the crowds that are expected to attend. The pastor believes that at least ten thousand people will endeavor to witness this most extraordinary service, which will be presented by Dr. Clark and officers of Monumental. Are the dead raised up, and with what body do they rise?" will be the subject of Dr. Clark's Easter Sunday sermon at 11 o'clock. Palm Sunday, Sunday morning prayer services were highly spiritual and well attended. A large crowd assembled for the regular morning services. Rev. P. W. J. Waney, associate pastor, in the absence of Rev. R. H. Bowling, the pastor who is conducting a series of meetings for the First Baptist Church, Charleston, W. Va., preached a wonderful service from Acts 1.5; subject "The Power of the Holy Spirit." This was instructive and inspiring and the great throne went away rejoicing. At 3:30 p.m., the Sunday school and B. Y. P. P. preached Rev. L. R. Black who delivered a very splendid adornment on "The Essential Element in the Christian Life." The Sunday school observed service day at its regular service hour. Rev. Jacobs made some brief but timely remarks from Joshua 24:15 "Chose you this day whom you will serve," and then made an irresistible appeal and ten young people a great decision for Christ's baptism. Walking believes in having the school work towards infinite evangelical end as well as well. Rev. J. H. Burham, of Richmond, delivered the closing message of the day. His subject was: "Prayer." This was most thoroughly enjoyed by all present. On Friday night, the chair, under the direction of Prof. Harrison will render its Easter Musical Cantata: "The Greatest Love." BETHELHEM BAPTIST CHURCH (Davies Park) Last Sunday at Bethlehem, the services were well attended. The pastor, Rev N. B. Brown, B. Th., used for his subject: "As ye go preach."

In the afternoon a good program was given by Mrs. Augustus Jones for the benefit of her club. On April 6 a play was given by Mrs. Evan in one net, was well rendered.

His spectacular preaching was the subject of such favorable comment that repeated him have made ever since. He has him return for an ex-engagement. At last he has consented to come in response to urgent requests from the pastor and officers of the First Baptist Church. He will stop in the home of Rev and Mrs Richard H. Bowling. He has just clad in a suit and meeting at the Memorial Church in Washington, D.C. In his home city of Sermon, Pa., he is in constant demand as a speaker before white churches. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH (Berkley Avenue) Although the organ was out of commission, the choir sang as sweetly as usual. The pastor, Rev. J. C. Diamond, selected his text from Isaiah 6:17. He showed from the beginning of his discourse that in order to understand the Bible, one must have a good background. He also showed how busy satan is sharpening his tools, trying to overthrow God's word, he is always on the job. "He is a master workman, using his learned because he learned that this class will be he and their doctrine adopted by them one. But God never and if we let Him He will keep us from the tools' of the devil. "The devil's sharpest tool is the tongue which is able to pierce deeper than a sword. But, then the sharper the devil's tool, the more effective God shall make His armor, and if we put on this armor, we shall be able to stand the criticism of the devil." The discussion was beautifully closed with selections of the 23 Psalm. with selections of the 23 Psalm. Dr. E. M. Davis, presiding elder of the A. M. E. Church, gave a very helpful talk on disease. The Junior Bible Class was well attended. The church is planning to publish a weekly journal of current church news. The kindergarten classes are continuing the supervision of Mrs. Charn W. Skinner. The shad supper given at the home of Mrs. E. Taylor was a great success. Miss Gladys Scott, a star member of the choir is critically ill. Haggie Plans To Repeat Advertising "Stunt" On Fabrics Mr. W. H.

Mr. Haggie states that a white customer entered his store and purchased the entire cut of the goods that were previously demonstrated almost as quickly as he had removed it from the sidewalk. He declares that any cloth that will withstand the treach of more than 5,000 feet without showing any visible signs of wear, is certainly a high quality piece of goods. These pieces for demonstration purposes are taken from his regular stock, he says, and asserts that every yard of fabrics in his store will stand the same test. Mr. Haggie expects to take a club of men, not less than 50 to Baltimore at his own expense some time in May, where they will be provided with suits of clothes at extraordinary low prices, on account of the bulk sales. They will be entertained at the Royal Hotel he said, while waiting for fittings. The offer to take more men on the trip is still open, he asserts.

It is a house of worship, a girls' home, and houses a public reading room and a Bible and religious literature department. It is modernly equipped in every feature and also has a modest roof garden. It is Faith Tabernacle, Rev. J. Albert Handy, pastor, and was erected under his personal supervision, no contractor having anything to do with its construction. It will be formally opened Easter Sunday and an invitation is extended to the public to attend the opening exercises. Here, girls who through unfavorable circumstances have been denied the advantage of a Christian and an industrial training may find these qualities which the builders of this edifice are convinced, must needs be had to produce a strong Negro womanhood. The building including the grounds, represents an outlay of $55,000, and $500 a month will be required to maintain it, according to the pastor. Voluntary contributions will be its sole source of support, and the congregation is relying upon the public to take cognizance of its needs. White Professor Refutes Biased Assertions Appearing In New Text Book On Sociology NEW CHURCH AND GIRLS HOME TO BE OPENED SUNDAY The most unique church edifice in the city is Faith Tabernacle Church of God, Rev. J. Albert Handy, pastor, situated on E. O'Neill road comprising numbers 840-842. The building has just been completed and will be formally opened Easter Sunday. In outward appearance the structure does not look at all like a church. Brick and plaster are the predominating materials used in its construction, the outer walls being all brick, having an interior or plaster. It might easily be mistaken for a modern apartment house. The structure was erected under the personal supervision of the pastor, no contractor being used, the workmen receiving their instruction, material and pay directly through Rev. Handy. It rises three stories from the ground and has forty rooms, one of which is an auditorium on the ground floor, the only physical unit connected with the structure that has any semblance of a church. This auditorium is equipped with pews, a rostrum, master's study, graduated floor, etc. It has a beautiful light-witted and airy interior. Here is where public worship will be held. Faith Tabernacle is more than a church. It more nearly approaches a community house such as is found in large northern cities. Its 40 rooms will house besides the auditorium for worship, a home for unfortunate girls, industrial classes, a Bible and religious tract department and a reading room, devoted exclusively to the use of those who desire to spend a few quiet moments reading religious literature. More than a hundred periodicals will be subscribed for, for free reading, states the pastor, not one of which will have to do with secular pursuits. On the first floor one the right side of the hall is a large room to be fitted with accordion doors. In here will be the Bible and tract department. In fact, according to Rev. Handy, in it will be found all sorts of religious literature. The majority of it will be for free distribution, he says, and that which is offered for sale will be sold at or below cost. Oppose this department is an indentif room, fitted out with rows of seats. This room is to be devoted to readers and Bible students. Large windows admit of abundance of light and the room has an air of serenity and quietude. Directly in the rear of these two rooms and at the end of the hall a door opens into the auditorium. Other Floors The second and third floors will house the girls' home. The rooms are large, have plastered walls and attractively finished woodwork. They are being neatly furnished with the things that make comfortable indoor living. Waxed floors, modern toilets, rest rooms, kitchen, laundry, etc., are provided. The building will be steam heated and electric lighted. Gold (Continued on Page Twelve) Cur G. Froe Tells Audience real Petitions And Suppli- tions Will Never Right trongs--Suggests Ballot. The American government is to be the greatest exponent representative democracy that existed. It mainly safeguards the Constitution of the United States and the Declaration of Independence. It was founded upon ideas of the greatest good to greatest number.

And this government founded can only be perpetuated by passage of wholesome laws intelligent citizenship, said being based and kept wholly in the provisions of the Constitution," was the almost epicistic description given of the American Government by Arthur Recorder of Deeds for the set of Columbia, in an address Good Government," delivered John's A.

If you were born in United States or any of the courty over which it has jurisdiction, you are a citizen thereof, you are entitled to all the powers and immunities of who shall hold this office, foreign. You have the right who shall hold this office, who shall not. It is impossible to have good government unless you have good intelligent citizen.

Philadelphia, Pa., April 10—The Philadelphia Tribune, an influential race journal published here, arrived as a front page feature last week a letter over the signature of Mr. Robert S. Laboree, a white professor at Lincoln University, written to Prof. Grove Samuel Dow, of the University of Denver, in which the former takes strong exceptions to statements on races appearing in a sociology text book compiled by the latter. Prof. Laboree's letter as published in the Tribune follows hatred like national hatred is never innate, but always a manufactured article. But the same may be said of race prejudice. Most little children do not have any of it; they acquire it later by inhibiting it from their elders. It is a matter of unfortunate education.

The book as a whole I heartily approve; it serves my purpose better than any other I could find in the market. To be perfectly for a kai however, let me say that while I am a member of the white race, my students are all of the colored race; and to your chapter on "The American Race Problem" we are compelled to take decided exception. It has been a bitter close to my men to study the discussion of a subject so vital to them, which seems to be written from so prejudiced a standpoint. But my special regret is not that it has been studied here where the reactions are all unfavorable, but that the book will be used in many other institutions where it will but add fuel to the flame of an already intense and ill advised race feeling. So will you hear with me if I call attention to some of your positions which, to say the least, are not at all established by facts, and which therefore I cannot accept. Says Race Hatred Innate In your opening paragraph you say, "Race hatred seems to be almost innate;" and you will please note that you say "race hate" and do not use the milder term "race prejudice."

But the same may be said of race prejudice. Most little children do not have any of it; they acquire it later by imbibing it from their elders. It is a matter of unfortunate education. Race feeling has its origin in economic, social and other environmental conditions. Physical differences such as color intensity the prejudice only by advertising the fact at the first contact, that the person in question belongs to what is regarded as an antagonistic group. Race prejudice is an acquired attitude which may be stimulated or dissipated by educational influences. Avoids Assering Inferiority You are careful nowhere to assert that the Negro race is innately inferior to the white race, and yet you must hold this view because the idea that the colored people stand on a lower plane of ability and potential character, crops out on nearly every page. But on what ground in a book like yours can you justify such an assumption? Race inferiority is an absolutely unproved hypothesis. I am glad to say that every day adds to the list of sociologists who question its truth. Some day we may have the data to prove it one way or the other; but until it is both unscientific and unfair to make it the underlying hypothesis of a discussion like yours for use in the class room. And of course I am speaking of innate ability and not of attainment. Otherwise our German ancestor in Julius Caesar's time must be judged to have been innately inferior to the Chinaman and North African of his day. Discussion Affected Your sense of white superiority affects your discussion of the mulatto problem. It is very gratifying to a white man's pride to attribute all the energy and brains and leadership of a mulatto to his white blood, but is is wholly unfair to the Negro and wholly unsupported by fact.

"NDLY SERVICE" HALE --- PHONE 22820 WALTER BLOW FUND REOPENED; FIRST SUM INADEQUATE WALTER BLOW FUND REOPENED; FIRST SUM INADEQUATE Legless Cripple Must Have Permanent Fitting of Cork Limbs; Guide Appeals For More Money In His Behalf. A recent investigation made by this newspaper into the status of the case of little Walter Blow, a legless cripple for whom the Journal and Guide several months ago conducted a fund for the purpose of raising sufficient money to provide with a pair of cork limbs, discloses that the child has not been fitted with permanent artificial legs on account of the inadequacy of the amount raised. At the time the appeal for donations on behalf of this lad was broadcast it was the information of the Journal and Guide that $80.00 was required thru public donations, an equal amount being anticipated from the educational department of the State. This anticipation has never materialized, it is now learned, and the $100.00 donated by readers of this paper remains in a local bank untouched. Has Iron Stilts Walter Blow was carried to a hospital in Richmond in January 1923 for surgical attention preparatory to having artificial legs fitted to his nubs. He remained there until August of the same year, when he was dismissed wearing a pair of iron stilts. These he has been wearing or rather trying to wear ever since, with the aid of crutches. He seldom is seen with more than one of these legs on, because he says the other one hurts him to wear it. In the meantime the child has entered school and progressed to the 2B Grade. Previous to the time the appeal was made in his behalf he had never walked and consequently had never seen inside of a school. Last week the Journal and Guide had an expert fitter of artificial limbs representing J. E. Hangar, Inc., manufacturers of Washington, D. C., to come to Norfolk and again look over this boy to ascertain the possibilities of fitting him with limbs he might comfortably wear, and a pair that might be readjusted as he attains height. This man in the person of Mr. Geo, E. Webster, who himself wears two cork legs, came and made the examination. He found the boy having good nubs and advised the immediate fitting of the best set of cork limbs that can be had which will cost not less than $250.00. One hundred dollars of this amount is on hand, never having been used in the first operation on the child. Those who have already donated to this cause have done much to advance this unfortunate child's welfare. Nearly three years ago he was discovered by Mr. Rydingsvard, Director of Vocational Education for the City of Norfolk, crawling around the floor of his home, and aloft past the legal THE NORTH CAROLINA LIFE INSURANCE Began Active April 1 With Nothing Began E April 1 With the Confidence 26 YEARS O That's a reputation of The Record B 1899 We had 1925 We have Income [1924] Admitted Assets Total Paid Po Holders Insurance in I Number of En NORTH CAROLINA MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE CO.

E. of W., in conjunction with committees from the three local Temples, met at Eureka's Home in Brambleton avenue, Wednesday evening, March 25th, and perfected arrangements for their annual memorial exercises which will be held jointly at the First Baptist Church, Bute street, Sunday, April 12th. These services are both universal and uniform throughout "Elkdom" and wherever Elk lodges and Temples are established they are held in commemoration of those members of the Order who have died during the year. There will be a large number of prominent Elks in attendance from all over the State generally and from the Tidewater District in particular. The latter will be attracted here on account of the regular quarterly session of Fidelis Chapter No. 18 Past Exalted Rulers Council I. B. P. O. E. of W., which convenes here on the same day as the special guest of Greater Norfolk Lodge. Elaborate plans are being made by Greater Norfolk's committee for the entertainment of these dignitaries, at a special session to be held just prior to the memorial services. From all indications, "Hello Bill" will be the most common as fell as most popular salutation heard on Norfolk's streets Easter Sunday, and purple, white and gold, the Elk's national colors will most likely preponderate the color scheme of Norfolk's annual fashion parade.

WRIGLEY'S SPEARMINT THE PERFECT GUM LASTS MINFLEAF FLAVOR "After Every Meal" WRIGLEY'S DIFFERENT FLAVORS Same High Quality Sealed Tight Kept Right Tenth Annual Audit Discloses Sound And Progressive Status of Institution; Dr. Webb Becomes Assistant. The Board of Trustees of the Tidewater Hospital held their tenth annual meeting at the office of the surgeon-in-charge, Dr. Wilbur A. Drake, on the 18th of February. Dr. Drake read to the board the tenth annual report which was received with a great deal of satisfaction and the board, after all the members present had expressed their gratification at the splendid success of the work, unanimously congratulated Dr. Drake for the faithful services he has rendered the institution. The auditing committee of the board, after going over the books of the hospital, congratulated the management on the fine financial condition of the hospital. Ten Years Operation The Tidewater Hospital has been in active operation for more than ten years under the medical and surgical supervision of Dr. Drake and the work has been making progress from the very start and has kept pace with the newer methods in medicine and surgery. During the past eight weeks more than twenty-five major operations have been successfully performed and the work in every way is very satisfactory. Beginning with the first of this month Dr. J. A. Q Webb becomes active associate surgeon of the hospital and in the near future the interior of the building will be completely redecorated and made more attractive. Indigent Patient Problem Dr. Drake and the board of trustees wish to thank all who have in any way contributed to the success of the hospital and hope some of the clubs or charitable organizations would work out some plans by which needy patients may be aided in their hospital expenses. Such funds need not be donated to the hospital, but applied to the needy cases as the occasion may arise. Individual cases should be investigated and helped. This suggestion is made as a result of the fact that the hospital has no charity funds and, therefore, forced to turn away a number of worthy persons who need hospital care and are without means to obtain it. In such cases the doctors are perfectly willing to render chari- (Continued on page 12.) General Manager of Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company Forecasts A New Era of Economic Progress.

C., on which occasion the Club was hostess to the Senior girls of Howard University, a very interesting discussion on "The Value of Organization Among Girls" was given by Miss Jauntia Tucker, teacher in the Dunbarn High School.

Miss Howard pointed out that College Women's Clubs serve to break down all barriers among college women for it is the broadest and most democratic of all unions of alumnae. She stated that while the college woman in her particular university may come to intimate contact with only a limited portion of her fellow students, three organizations of College Women's Clubs a sympathetic and understanding contact with a cosmopolitan group of college women alumnae of various institutions is possible. Some of the usefulness to which such clubs might helpfully direct their activities were given us encouraging young women to enter college, and the establishments of so-called college clubs. Alumnae Clubs should be a stimulus for creative work, Miss Howard asserted, in literature and fine arts. COURTLAND Courtland, Ya.-At the close of the Sunday school at Macedonia Baptist Church Rev. J.

Journal and Guide Bureau 1121 St. John St. ROBERT A. CRUMP Richmond, VA.-The lovers of jazz music—and this town is full of them— certainly got their fill at a jazz revue at the Raye Theatre on last Tuesday night. Who ever conceived the idea of presenting to the public the five leading artists of the jazz scene, up until business, for the revue was reviewed by everybody that was able to crowd in to the Raye Theatre, which seats a thousand persons. The folks in the back row of the gallery paid as much for seats as they paid in the orchestra and were even more of an opportunity to get in at any price. Under auspices of the Playground and Recreation Association and in an endeavor to raise money for this association a joint community slum was held at the University of North Carolina from all the choirs and musical organizations taking part making a five hundred dollars throw under the direction of Mr. John Middleton. Easter carols were sung. A good sized crowd turned to the stage. A goodly sum of money was raised. The popularity of each orchestra, seemingly, drew out its own following. The orchestra's taking part were "Brynn Smith," "Simon Smith," "Brynn Smith," "Lloyd Patterson," "Soft Pedding Synapaters," "Hurri Hill," "Blue Moon Sonderser," Leroy Wyehle's "Jazz Moncrhels." The phying of the orchestra's were interpersed with her of colored voters in the North who in many districts hold the balance of power. Negro voters may have been practically disfranchised in many of the Southern states; but their right to the ballot is written into our Constitution, and every year sees a larger body of them exercising their rights and duties as citizens and almost always to the betterment of their race. Without the ballot they would be helpless to defend themselves from growing wrongs. Loose "Social Equality" Talk You talk of "social equality" in the same loose undefined way that a Southern white man uses the term. It is a phrase that can be used as unjustifiably and harshly, and can create as much heat and ill will as the terms Bolshevist and heretic that are fired at anyone who shows the least tendency to liberalism in social or religious questions. I myself have been called a "damned social equality man" for simply suggesting in a mild manner to a North Carolinaian that his State ought to do more for the education of the Negro. Now there is a very real sense in White Professor Refutes Bias In Sociology Text (Continued from page 7.) that there is no proof whatever that the mulatto is more intelligent and energetic than the full blooded Negro. We have been teaching colored men in this institution for over seventy years and our experience does not in any way substantiate statements of the kind. You state that the whole trend of education for the Negro is away from higher education. This shows that you are not at all in touch at all with recent Negro educational problems. The facts are that there are more openings in medicine for colored men and women that there are qualified persons to fill them; that the increasing number of high schools in the South are calling for an increased number of college graduates to meet the demand for teachers; that the law and other professions are opening to men of all ages as never before. Instead of the trend being away from higher education it is toward it. Hampton, Tuskogee, the two best known industrial schools, have been compelled to establish college departments to meet the growing demand for college bred men and women. The General Education Board of the Rockefeller Foundation is giving larger sums to the higher education institutions that never be able to satisfy sentimentality, but to the stern educational necessities of the time.

Madam McAdoo's Floral Parlor 1719 Hunter St. Phone 37993 Out of Date References It seems to me that your references to Negro labor are equally out of date. Instead of being supplanted by foreign labor today, the Negro is a growing factor in the labor market; and this not an unskilled labor, but in the semi-skilled and skilled positions it seems to be a pretty general judgment by employers of the colored workman, that he is fully the equal of our imported labor from Europe.

And no doubt of there are very many Negroes of whom the same may be believed, but the man that no colored men, no matter what be his attainments, however cultural and refined he may be, should eat at my table or be given the hospitality of my home, you are erecting a purely artificial and wholly unworthy barrier between us. Real kinship is of the soul and not of the color of the skin. I am not ashamed to say that I have had the pleasure of entertaining in my home not a few men of other races who in intelligence and character and ideals of science have been not willing to have more akin to me than many of my own race. And so I fear that what seems to me, your false assumptions vitiate your conclusions. God forbid that caste of any kind or discriminating segregation should ever become the settled policy of our country, and especially of men in your position the curse of India hung about our necks.

It appears to me a most obvious duty that when I meet a man that is truly my equal in all that goes to make a man, I should recognize him whatever he his race, color or previous condition of servitude. To do anything else would be to confuse a very simple issue by injecting into it the poison of race prejudice—a poison which we of the Anglo-Saxon race have manufactured to an extent unknown to any other people. When I publish a new edition of your book, (and I am sure that your book is worthy of another edition) I wish with all my heart that you would omit chapter nine. The volume will be worth much more without it. If I have been over frank please excuse my boldness; but I could not let your discussion of this very important subject go unchallenged and be true to my earnest convictions that have grown by association with me.

Mr. Jesse B. Hearin, speaking before the Montgomery Kiwanis Club, brought out the fact that the lands are fertile and the citizenship of the eleven counties high, and that the main question now was how to replace the black workers who have moved away. It is safe to say that no people, not of the Nomads, leave home and go among strangers unless there is a compelling reason, or many compelling reasons, in the hope to better their fortunes. It has always been that way with the migrant movement. The laws and the public opinion have narrowed the citizenship and hedged the laborer about in such a way as to leave him nothing but anxiety, work and debt, with mob law always held over his head as a coercive force, and he finds it good to escape these, as European immigrants do, by going away from home. Remove the causes of discontent and the workers will not go away. That's all.

Where The Race Gains When editor-publisher W. O. S. of the Elizabeth City (N. C.) Index became associate editor of Collier's a distinct gain for Afro-Americans w When editor-publisher W. O. Saunders of the Elizabeth City (N. C.) Independent became associate editor of Collier's Weekly, a distinct gain for Afro-Americans was registered. By fearlessly championing right and consistently arraying the power of his trenchant pen against wrongs and injustices, according to his lofty convictions, among the aristocracy, bourgeois and peasantry alike, Mr. Saunders has made of the Independent one of the most respected, if not the most powerful local weekly journal in the South. In his new position the range of his influence is multiplied a thousand times and more and should he remain steadfast to the principles he has militantly espoused throughout his career, the public may be assured of finding from time to time in the pages of Collier's, something that will negative much of the ill-advised propaganda on the race question that too often comes from the pens of half informed and biased writers. For a century and more colored people have sought to procure a just appraisal of their cause thru the American Press. Progress in this direction has been painfully slow, accelerated now and then by the addition to the editorial staff of a great metropolitan daily or a national publication of an outstanding Southerner, who possessed a keen and unprejudiced understanding of the question of races gained thru an open-minded study at close range. In this respect associate editor Saunders enjoys distinction. His life has been spent amidst the great majority of colored Americans. Their struggles, achievements, disadvantages and injustices he has witnessed from close-up. His sympathy and militant pen have never wavered when the issue involved was between right and wrong, and thru the Independent he has adhered to and held up as a standard the principle of the brotherhood of man. The versatility of the new associate editor of Collier's will naturally direct his talents to the discussion of various topics of national import. But should he grasp the wonderful opportunity that is now his to contribute mightily to the clarification of a mass of misunderstanding and confusion on the question of races in this country, he will have earned the imperishable gratitude of this nation, and become truly one of its revered patriots. To do this he has but to remain W. O. Saunders, as we now know him. White and Black and Law Enforcement About two weeks ago a young white man was taken from the county jail at Williamston, N. C., by a mob of white men, carried to a lonely spot on the outskirts of the town, where his captors performed upon his body a crude operation. He is mutilated for life. A reward totaling $1,000 was promptly offered by the law authorities for the arrest and conviction of the perpetrators of this outrage against Carolina majesty and a human being. Six men have since been arrested on charges of being implicated in the crime. Two of these have been released after admitting having witnessed the butchery and promising to "squeal" on their companions in lawlessness. Four are held in jail, one of whom it is alleged is a preacher, under circumstances that apparently link them up quite closely with the actual committing of the deed. Even if there be no convictions in this case, and quite likely there will be, developments have already progressed far enough to afford a striking comparison between official reaction to the mutilating of a white man by a North Carolina mob and the actual Norfolk Journal and Guide lynching of a colored man by a Virginia mob. The Public Pulse A colored youth was lynched at Waverly, Va., and his body burned to a crisp just a few days before the young white man suffered bodily mutilation at the hands of a mob in Williamston. The Virginia mob made two unlawful expeditions, one to murder, the other to move the body of the victim. Twice it was subjected to exposure. In this connection no arrests have been made, however. No rewards were offered for the apprehension of the guilty, even tho the Governor visited the scene of the disorder and personally asked the lynchers hereafter to behave themselves. He admonished them to return to their routine ways, which they proceeded to do, and will continue to do until another suitable victim for their lust for blood is thrust upon the scene. Does this show that North Carolina is more zealous for the enforcement and respect of its laws than Virginia, or is it simply a matter of whose ox is gored? And bringing our subject home, our own local courts have recently disposed of a case involving a colored man and a white man in a way that to the lay mind seems to be so inconsistent as to be almost amusing, and actually would be if it did not so far transcend in serious import anything savoring of mirth. If Tom Moss was not guilty of attempted store-breaking as the Police Justice held, then this court must have been convinced of the truth of his testimony. If his testimony was true, then officer Kilpatrick's was not. Since they both made directly opposite charges against each other, both could not testify to the whole truth. But a jury in Corporation Court decided that Kilpatrick's testimony was true and found him guiltless. By the same reasonong, then Moss' testimony as given in Police Court must have been false. As far is we know the case is closed and there will be no attempt to reopen it, but Tom Moss is either guilty of attempted store-breaking or Policeman Kilpatrick is guilty of having assaulted Moss. Both are not innocent as the two verdicts indicate. Here we are forced to choose between a judicial decision and a jury verdict. We have made ours, and it does not lessen our high regard for the Police Court's and Commonwealth's handling of the case. Of course, there is nothing left to guess here, it is simply a matter of whose ox is gored. --- The legislature of Tennessee has a law against Darwin and his theory evolution of species as "being at vv with the teachings of man's creation lated in the Bible."

Just let me alone and don't try to club me into an acceptance of any dampholl religious dogma that happens to be temporarily popular with all the moron-minded and I enjoy going to church—that is if the church has a preacher who has anything intelligent or interesting to say. And if the church hasn't such a preacher I like to go to church anyway just to sit with folks—if the folks will just sit and not annoy me with their anxieties over the fate of my poor little soul. I especially like to slip into a church on week days when there is no one around and in the quietness of sanctuary rest a tired mind and try to forget how silly most of our busy lives are. I seldom spend a Sunday in New York that I do not go to some church service. Recently Mrs. Saunders was in New York and the church I selected for that morning happened to be the Community Church of New York, of which the eminent Dr. John Haynes Holmes is pastor. We were ushered to our seat by a Negro and, looking about the congregation, we discovered as many as a dozen Negroes scattered among the Whites. Now my wife had never seen anything like that in her own Methodist Episcopal Church South of God in Elizabeth City and it didn't set well with her at all. I tried to explain to her that this particular church in New York acted on the theory that all Christians, regardless of creed or color, are brothers in Christ and might as well travel along together since they are all headed for the same Heaven. "They may be headed for the same Heaven," said the wife, "But they'd never get there if you mixed them up on the same train in North Carolina." The Public Pulse Dr. Gregg Is Right Editor Journal and Guide, Editor Journal and Sir:-I wish to comment your editorial page of March 28. Naturally I am interested in the exchange of views on Hampton Institute as recently expressed editorially by the Daily Press of Newport News and Dr. Gregg of the Institute. Dr. Gregg tells the whole truth when he says the more the Negro's self-respect is built up the greater and deeper is his pride in his own race. And I know from personal experience, as a graduate from the Institution, that such mixed racial contact as is permitted there serves in every possible way to increase within the Negro student and graduate the highest possible regard for his own race. Hampton graduates do not marry white women, and don't desire to; neither are they of the ill-advised "smarty" type of the race. It is the money that is coming into Hampton and Tuskegee that is annoying such as the Daily Press and its kind. Well, for one, I am glad of the opportunity to have added my mite to the cause, the Dotty Press' distrust notwithstanding. Everett, Mass The Poet's Corner The Poet's Corner An Easter Song Sad were the hearts that Easter morning, Anxiously watching where the Savior lay, And ere the beautiful sun came dawning An angel came and rolled the stone away: Glory, glory songs of triumph sing, Let all rejoice and Easter flowers bring, O grave where is they victory, And death thy bitter sting? Let earth rejoice and praise our Risen King! Let hearts life up to Him in heaven And give joyful thanks both night and day. For all the good that he has given, Let earth keep silent while her people pray; Glory, Glory songs of triumph sing, Let all rejoice and Easter flowers bring ers bring, O grave where is thy victory, And death thy bitter sting?

Protruding from the second floor is a roof garden. Two frame houses owned by the church are standing nearby and containing six rooms each which have been remodeled for living quarters and will take care of the overflow. Other property in the same block has become in possession of the church and will be remodeled in furtherance of the pastor's plan to make of the entire square one of the most attractive in the city. Cost of Building Faith Tabernacle represents an outlay of $55,000 including the ground. According to Rev. Handy it has an indebtedness of $35,000 and may be maintained at a cost of $500 a month, $150 of which is provided for. In outlining the objects of the home, the church through its pastor said: "In connection with the work of Faith Tabernacle of Norfolk we are divinely led to establish a home for colored girls; where the unfortunate may be sheltered and trained in the fundamentals of salvation plus correct methods of home keeping, birthrights which many have never received because of poor home conditions." The object of the home is to provide through training in Christian principles. In expressing his faith in the future success of the work the pastor quoted the following: "Shall I be neighbor unto these who opposing themselves and establish low standards of living—yes, I am my brothers keeper." The work is carried on purely through voluntary donations and the membership invites the public to attend the opening services Easter Sunday. Persons feeling inclined to contribute to the maintenance of the work may send donations directly to Rev. J. A. Handy. The building will be open for inspection daily from 9 a. m. to 8 p. m. 10,000 YEAR-OLD RONE Kennington, Eng.—Excavators here unearthed the shoulder bone of a mammoth that lived 10,000 years ago. Saturday, April 11, 1925 THE HOUSE WE LIVE IN THE HOUSE WE LIVE IN The Three Invisible Guests Too much stress cannot be laid on the "cleanliness" of the house we live in." Its perfect condition is dependent upon perfect cleanliness, absolute freedom from toxins. To keep poisons out of our house is much easier than removing them after they once enter. These toxins usually come in with four of our five visitors, only one of these guests is free from danger and whose presence will ever bless us. Though unseen, His presence means unalloyed happiness and perfect health. When we realize the advantages and blessings that accrue to us from his abiding presence we will do all in our power to insure Him the chief place in our affections. The second of these invisible guests is an enemy. He always has been and ever will be inimical to our wellbeing, both spiritual and temporal. To admit him into our house is to invite all manner of unhappiness, passions, diseases, and death. You may recognize this visitor by his suggestions to depart from the path of virtue. In contrast with our life-giving invisible guest, he offers pleasure where happiness is needed, and insists that inclination be followed instead of duty. Our next best friend is the air. We are more dependent upon the air we breathe than upon the food we eat. Yet some are so afraid of air that they will muffle their heads and bodies until they look like mummies. In some families the following conditions obtains: The windows must be kept closed because the mother feels the air. If she is at all chilly, and a change is made in her clothing, she thinks her children must be treated in the same manner, and thus the entire family are robbed of physical stamina. The body is clothed in accordance with the caprices of a diseased imagination, and smothered under an amount of wrappings which debilitates the system. The skin cannot perform its office; the studied habit of shunning the air and avoiding exercise closes the pores—the little windows—making it impossible to throw off the impurities through that channel. The burden of labor is thrown upon the liver, lungs, kidneys, etc., and these internal organs are compelled to do the work of the skin. Thus persons bring disease upon themselves by their wrong habits; yet, in the face of light and knowledge, they will adhere to their own course. Next installment: The Importance of Air and Exercise. Walter Blow Fund To Be Re-opened (Continued from page 7.) age for entering school, had never attended on account of his inability to walk. Investigation disclosed that on account of the unfortunate circumstances of his parents he would be denied a boy's chance to get out in the open and learn unless the public came to his rescue. The Guide sent out an appeal. The response was liberal. The child has been immeasurably helped. But it now develops that enough has not yet been done. He has just worn out the makeshifts that were at first fitted and now sorcelly needs permanent fittings. Little Walter for more than a year now has known the pleasure and joys of walking. But the iron stilts are almost gone. He is yet compelled to resort to crutches. His nubs are now enough correctly formed to take permanent artificial limbs, but $150.00 more must be had before this can be done. The manufacturer's letter to the Journal and Guide said in this connection: "On general principles I would be inclined to advise the very best limbs that can be made and these are worth $150.00 each or $300.00 for the pair. There are many reasons for getting the best that can be had. In the first place, the best that can be made are not any too good. Then again, this boy has both limbs off and would require the most perfect fitting and adjustment that can be furnished for the reason that he will always be on an artificial limb, no matter which leg or foot he transfers his weight to. To make this plainer, a man with one leg amputated can throw most of the work and weight on his natural leg, thereby relieving the stump leg in the artificial appliance. In the case of a double amputation, this relief is not available. "I thank you for the inquiry and want to assure you that if you decide to place the order with us we will give this boy our very best attention and the most expert servicer that we have been able to develop in sixty-four years of continuous experience in this business." The fund is with this issue of this newspaper reopened. Previously acknowledged $100.00 QUESTIONS AND ANSWER IN NEGRO HISTORY BY GEORGE WELLS PARKER (Copyright 1921 by A.

Hunter, an English authority, in his Annals of Rural Bengal, says in speaking of the aboriginal inhabitants of India, "everything from their color and flat noses to their barbarous customs, manifested their relationship to Negro races." Also speaking of the diversity of color, he remarks: "There are hundreds of imperceptible graduations from the black squat tribes of the mountains to the tall olive colored Brahmin." Huxley also comments, "The dark stock (of African origin) predominates in Arabia, Persia, Afghanistan and Hindustan, shading gradually thru all stages of darkening into the type of the modern Egyptian, or of the wild Hill-man of the Bekan. Nor is there any record of the existence of a different population in all these countries." There is much more, but this must suffice. When you want to learn of origins, don't accept the white man's charts. He generally arranges it to suit himself. Q. What was the nationality of Abraham? A. Abraham is the name of a character that was the legendary ancestor of many Asiatic and African tribes. He came from Ur of the Chaldees a country settled by Cushites, who were very black and classified by the Hebrews as descendants of Ham. They were about 100% Negro blood. Q Were the Camanites Newer? A. According to Hebrew genealogy the Canaanites were the descendants of Canaan, the son of Ham. According to modern archeology they were of African descent and Negroid. Though classed as Semites, they were exceedingly dark and possessed a great deal of Negro blood.
