Thomas It took a jury in Corporation Court No. 1, just about three minutes to return a verdict of not guilty in the case of Miss Virginia Lewis on trial last Friday for the killing of Robert Thomas in a lane off Nicholson street, March 4, last. The woman pleaded self-defense. She told a story of unwelcomed attentions forced upon her by Thomas after she had repeatedly told him that she cared to have nothing more to do with him. Her refusal to accept further overtures from him engaged him, she said, and provoked him to beating her. He was in the act of choking her when she thrust a knife blade into his lung, she testified. Her testimony to Thomas' frequent beating her was corroborated by witnesses and partially substantiated by witnesses for the commonwealth. State Declines to Argue Attorney James M. Harrison, her counsel, made a brief and pointed address to the jury in her behalf. Commonwealth's Attorney Wilcox submitted for the State without argument. Not guilty was the quick verdict of the jury. Virginia Lewis is the young woman, who, it was a alleged, shattered nonchalantly with the police concerning the killing immediately following her arrest, even asking the officers for a cigarette. She maintained her self-composure throughout her trial, and was smiling when the jury retreated to deliberate her fate. She told the same story in Corporation Court that she told in Police Court at her preliminary hearing, never deviating a particle in her recitals.

ROSENWALDSDIVIDE $10,000 TO FACULTY AT TUSKEGEE INST. Visits School On Occasion Of Founders' Day And Makes Concrete Expressions of Interest. DR. DILLARD DELIVERS THE ANNUAL ADDRESS Tuskegee Inst. Ala., April 14—One of the most pleasant experiences of the Founder's Week celebration here was the distribution of a fund of nearly $10,000 among the teachers as the gift of Mr. and Mrs. Rosenwald. Accompanying each check was a letter which said: "For four years or more we have worked together for Tuskegee, you in your way and we in ours. As an evidence of our interest in what you have done toward making better American citizens, we take pleasure in presenting to you the enclosed." "Booker T. Washington's memory will live forever and as years roll on he will continually and increasingly be regarded as among the outstanding characters of American history," prophesied Dr. James H. Dillard, president of the Jeanes and Slater Fund Boards, Charlottesville, Virginia, in delivering the principal address at the ninth annual observance of Founder's Day here, Sunday afternoon in the Institute Chapel before a capacity audience. In defining his prophecy, Dr. Dillard declared that "If you will pause in thought just one moment and let your mind turn to the remembered evidence of his intellectual powers, to the many manifestations of his simple wisdom, or, if you think of his charitable feelings toward all people and then consider that without any position of power he perhaps influenced for good the lives of more people than any man of his day, if you think of these qualities and facts of his life, you will see that it is easy to make the prophecy that here is a man whose memory will live." Mrs. Rosenwald Speaks At the close of the program Mrs. Julius Rosenwald spoke briefly of her annual visit to the Institute for the past fifteen years and declared that each year she could see indications of progress in the work of the school and in the appearance of the students. She congratulated the girls especially upon their appearance and manner of going about their work. Sunday Morning the sermon Sunday morning was preached by Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes. He urged the students to have faith in God; faith in themself; faith in their fellowman and faith in the coming of the kingdom of God on earth.

Teachers of Second District of Va. Hold Meeting Here Teachers of Second District of Va. Hold Meeting Here Managers Of Fund Believe Public Not Fully Conscious Of Obligation to Unfortunate Child. A lone response in the form of a donation from a white friend Mrs. J. R. Wilcox, of this city was the result of the appeal published in these columns last week in behalf of little Walter Blow, a legless cripple. Mrs. Wilcox's check came in Tuesday morning's mail it is significant that the first and only response came from a white person. It is believed that the public has not thoroughly sensed its obligation to this unfortunate child. Those in charge of the fund and who are making efforts to procure for little Walter a permanent fitting of artificial legs, are reluctant to believe that the public is so heartless as to pass this case unnoticed. Circumstances of Case To appreciate the pathetic circumstances in the ease one has only to consider the following facts. For more than seven years, almost since birth, Walter Blow never experienced the joys of walking—a thing so commonplace to those who have always had the use of their legs. During this time a room in his home comprised his world. Thru the aid of science, prompted by the solicitude of persons interested thru a wide appeal broadcasted by this paper, he was lifted from the floor to a pair of iron stilts. For nearly two years now, the boy his been running, jumping, hopping and skipping on these stilts. For nearly two years now He has even gone to school, a thing denied him before science came to his aid. But the stilts are now the worse for wear, and too, they have become obsolete. If a pair of well-made and properly fitted cork legs are not soon provided him, he again will go back to the floor: of his home, feeling bitterer probably than ever, inasmuch as he has now experienced the joys of walking. Not Likely To Occur But this will not occur, it is believed. A considerate public, is not likely to stand for it. Two hundred and fifty dollars is needed—a paltry sum for the more than 50.000 Journal and Guide readers to raise, and $100.00 of this amount is on hand. The fund is open and contributions will be acknowledged in these columns. Countries: Previously acknowledged $100.00 Mrs. J. Junius R.

Among the men given were these: A rich man is necessary to command the regiment; there is no Colored officer at present qualified for the place; and there is certain construction of headquarters and other business now under way that Col. Little can handle better than any other person. All of these allegations are denied by a number of influential New Yorkers, and also the Amsterdam News, one of the influential newspapers of the city which says they are not true New Yorkers point to the fact that Illinois has the famous Eighth regiment, entirely officered by Colored men, and declare that the Empire State can do likewise. It is believed, should Col. Little stick to his decision, the next commanding officer of the 366th New York will be a citizen of color.

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE POETRY "Beinvenu" Welcome, Love, with the Spring, Garlanded with roses nectareous, A beauteous myriad of newly opened flowers, An offering of ecstacy, fragrant to sense; Greeted by hymning of the lark, chanting Earth's jubilate for thy coming. The maiden and the lad cease to mope But dauntlessly strive at hidden task. That early finished, chance will be theirs. For bithsome hours of play; Heads heavy with burden-bearing years. Doit Time's deluding mask; Disdire them of Destiny's foors And the worries of yesterday; Are strengthened in faith, by the ground that cries the gospel that cheers, To quicken their steps with vigorous hope. Age and youth repoise in thy coming— Whose hands stretch out the lengthened day-beams; Succor the planted seed in earth's fresh-furrowed seams; Support the budding tree and its canopy; From deathly despair life's Easter doth bring; Strivers for heaven's reach unshackling— Thou'rt well, come, Emancipator of Dreams!

HOME AND KITCHEN SUGGESTIONS Department of Education and Inspiration for the Housewife -Edited By- MARION JANE PARKER, Director Home Economics, Culmut Baking Food Company, Chicago, Illinois. To Remove Stains and Dis colorations Methods recommended for cleaning discolored silver are: boiling in suds or in water containing soda sal soda, alum, cream of tartar, borax or lye, or rubbing with dry salt, whiting, grated potatoes, or solutions of sulphuric acid, chloride of line, alum, or cream of tartar. A Clean, Easy Way to Wash The Table Silver is to put it in a wire draining basket, having a handle. Then immerse it in a pan a scalding hot suds and scrub the silver with a hand mop. When washed, lift the basket from the pan and place it in the sink. Pour a kettle of boiling water over it and let drain. Very little labor is required to dry it with a soft cloth. To Clean Drain Pipes and Disinfect Them dissolve copers and lye in your drain pipes. You will find that half-worn whisk broom makes a good scrubbing brush for enameled ware. When your whisk brooms become worn take them and trim them to a stub. Then scald with soapy water, then with creel water and finally rinse with cold water. When washing enameled ware, if the food sticks, you will find that a few strokes with one of these brooms will remove it without injury to the cooking utensils. To Freshen Cargets Before sweeping, scatter dry salt over the carpet. It brightens the colors and checks the ravages of moths. To Clean ivory Ivory ornaments, broaches, card cases, bracelets, carvings, piano keys and the like may be cleaned by painting them over with spirits of turpentine and when possible exposing them for 2 or three days to sunshine. Or articles that can be taken out of doors may be bleached by simply exposing them to direct sunshine. To Clean Marble Mix 2 ounces of common soda, 1 ounce of pumice stone, and 1 ounce of fine common salt, and dilute with water to the consistency of cream. Pour the mixture over the marble and let stand until all stains are removed. Afterwards wash the marble with salt and water, rinse, and wipe dry. To Clean Mica in Stoves Wash with vinegar and water. To Dry-Clean Shirtwists Put 4 ounces of cornmeal into a 24-pound flour sack or a pillow slip. Put the waist into this, and rub or lime gently so that the meal will come in contact with all QUEEN HOTEL Queen and Church Streets Hot Water and Baths Rates from 50c up per day; from $2.50 up per week.

The easiest way to clean windows is with a chamois or clean cloth and clear water. Wring out the chamois or cloth so it is wet but not dripping, and wash the windows clean. Afterwards wring dry and go over them again. Finally polish with a dry cloth or chamois. FRANKLIN Miss Mary T. Holland, of New York, and Miss Elaine Outlaw, of State Normal School, Elizabeth City, N.

C., April 15—Dehart Hubbard, the sensational athlete of the University of Michigan, recently tied two world records at 60 and 50 yards respectively. He will compete at the National Open Championship Meet at Howard University, Washington at D. C., May 2, and it is here that he hopes to realize his fondest hope—the establishment of a new world record for the running broad jump. For several years Hubbard has been America's premier broad jumper and consistently registering 24 feet or better and once leaping 25 feet 1-2 inches, which at the time was just 1 1-2 inches short of the world record set by Ned Gourdin, the Harvard University "wonder." Hubbard will do his best at Howard Meet. Gourdin To Be On Hand Ned Gourdin will he on hand and claims to be ready to turn in a real effort. Gourdin has organized an athletic club in Boston and has entered a half dozen athletes all of whom are reported ready for their best performances. Of course Gourdin is anxious to beat Hubbard who forced him to be content with second place honors at the last Olympic games. Coach Steve Farrell of Michigan figures Hubbard good for a new record in the running broad jump and goes so far as to predict that he will even reach the 26 foot mark. The present record is 25 feet 6 inches, made by Bob Legendre of Georgetown at the Olympic games last summer. FROM THE WILLEY A.

HEARD 'ROUND TOWN By A.

A New York man had the telephone company send a man to fix his phone. He got the right number twice in one day and thought something must be wrong with the machine. Answer to "Do you love me?" First year, "So much, darling." Second year, "Of course I do." Third year, "yeah."

Frank Hunter wonders if radio announcers go right to bed when they say good night. It will soon be time to start liking winter better than summer. The average editor begins by trying to reform the world with weighty editorials; he ends by deciding that it isn't worth reforming.

When he first called he sat all the evening with the album in his lap. Next time he took my little brother in his lap. So, you see, I hope it will soon be my turn." One Norfolk man's wife told him to go and have his eyes treated. He went to a revue. Modernism: Blinding headlights; fifty miles an hour; "unavoidable accident."

SUICIDE FOR BOBED HAIR Preston, Eng.-At the inquest over Miss Isabelle Marginson, a sister testified that the girl drowned herself because she imagined people were laughing at her for having her hair bobbed. NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE MINSTRELS OF 1925 AT ATTUCKS THEATRE Tuesday morning, April 21, at 1 o'clock and on Tuesday night at 8:15 o'clock St. Joseph's Society will present their second annual minstrel entitled, "Minstrels of 1925." All of the favorites who made a splendid impression on several audiences last year have been retained, states the manager. The first part of the show opens with a snappy opening chorus. Then "gags" by the quartette of ends, Florence Lowe, Frances Lacey, Joseph Rowley and Robert Watts, who, it is said, are even funnier than they were last year. During this part vocal selections will be rendered by the following singers: Cornelius Washington, George Newby, William Daye, Lucille Hervery, Lillian Smith and Jannie McFarland. The show has been enhanced by the addition of another comedian in the person of the "Plantation Type" Cornwall Bullock, who has proved on excellent laugh provoker. The after-piece is a travesty up on present day radio. It is said to be a "scream" all the way thru. "Judge Whitewash." Clarence Howard, in his dog catcher's garb, will be there. The jury which is a motley collection representing every nation under the sun, is being assembled for a trial. The proceedings are interrupted from time to time by some suffragette, a mule, a cuckoo, looking for a bootlegging joint and finally by the radio which the judge sends out and buys. Then the tun begins and the courtroom is broken up. The performance Tuesday will be proceeded by a parade Monday afternoon. HENDERSON BEATS UNION UNIVERSITY Henderson, N. C.—The Henderson aggregation showed their superiority over Union University in an easy victory here Monday, April 6. The game began with Speaks, Virginia's southpaw, in the box for Union but the hard hitting "tar heels" soon knocked him out in the sixth inning when Coach Harvey was forced to put Merritt, Union's ace, in the box. Too late, however, because the high school boys had bent their efforts toward victory and eight runs were scored that inning. Jackson, Bright and Bofman were the outstanding batters for the University. Wonderful skill and training were shown by Evans, twirler for the Institute and Harris who caught an airtight game, Rogers, as usual, smacked the pill over the fence for his "round trip". The Institute team completed its fifth victory yesterday by winning a double-header from Franklinlinton Christian College. Scores at Franklinlinton in the morning, 9-1, and at Henderson in the afternoon 15-0. Baseball fans are anticipating an exciting series in the clash between the Henderson nine and the Durham State Normal, May 5 and 13. FANS DISAPPOINTED OVER LOCAL BOUT WILLEY A. JOHNSON, JR. Fans were keenly disappointed over the glove contest staged at the Capitol Theatre, Portsmouth. Friday night of last week, in which all the fights fell through. The more handful of fans that witnessed the melee vociferously made known their disapproval of the affair as it was and a number of them walked out before the show was over. The card was unbalanced in view of the fact that those who were slated to appear failed to show up and two or three scrappers who could be recruited into service to pinch hit were utter failures and quit cold when the gaff was a little more than they apparently anticipated. The first go on tap was between Kid Pepper and some other Kid and the scrap was to go four rounds, but when Pepper was on the receiving end of the milling, he claimed foul, but the referee paid no attention to his claims. No one saw a foul and the fans readily made that known and yelled for the fight to be resumed. If Pepper was fouled, his opponent must have was fouled, his opponent must have stepped on his corn. However, when Kid Pepper failed to answer the gong for the fourth round the referee awarded the decision to the other fighter on a technical foul. Loving Contest The second match was a loving contest between Wild Man Carey, 200 pounds, and K-0. Brown, 198. This bout was slated to go four rounds, but when Wild Man got to nose gored up he also quit cold by using the fans clamoring for action. Hands-up, of Boston and Kid Pepper furnished the semi-finals and midway the first frame the former swung on the latter and he cried in like a paper house in a wind storm and was counted out. The wrestling bout which was for the Tidewater championship was featured by Kid Pratt of Portsmouth and Russell "Kid'D Wilson. This was the best number on the program and the contestants went fifteen minutes to a draw. "Expenses 22 Cents" BY WILLIAM PICKENS How do they do it? With the use of their babies they have raised more money to fight lynching and oppression at a smaller expense that was ever done before in the history of their people. In Cleveland, Ohio, about 26 babies brought in $1,027.00, and when the committee of women counted up their "expenses" for the affair, they were $26.00, so that they netted $1,001.00. Now, if some benevolent male politicians had been managing that affair, the "expenses" would have been $1,001.00 and the net promises (outstanding and maybe collectable) would have been "around" $26.00. But the climax of this wizardly colored female economy was reached in the "Baby Contest" of Gloucester County, Virginia. It was led by Mrs. William G. Price, wife of the Principal of the Gloucester Institute. They had to get babies from a scattered rural community, from all over the county. And within a few weeks they had raised a fund of $150.00, to fight for further freedom, and when the officer of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People asked for their "expense account," what was wrong with his ears when the women replied: "twenty-two cents for postage." The United States ought to have a COLORED WOMAN as Secretary of the Treasurer. —WILLIAM PICKENS New York City, N. Y.

WHITEHEAD Lawrenceville, Va., April 11— St. Paul sprang a big surprise on the 1924 C. I. A. Basketball Champions today and emerged from the St. Paul Normal and Industrial School-Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute fracas on the big end of the 2-1 score. This victory marked the Tigers first baseball triumph over the Hilltoppers in a decade. The game was hotly contested and it was a memorable and picturesque spectacle. Neither the strategy of Purryear and Taylor nor the cunning of Captain Moses nor the perspicacity of M. Allen affected the tactics of St. Paul's team to ingenuity of Captain Wallace or the indomitable will of St. Paul's team to the extent of depriving the "wonder team" of its objective. The two nines played their best grand of ball all the way, and at the conclusion of the brilliant battle the only solace St. Paul found was in a one run margin over her ancient and friendly rival. The outstanding players in April 11th's diamond caste were M. Allen, Scott and Coward for Virginia Normal; Captain Wallace, Clifton Williams, Jefferson and Allison for St. Paul. Although Allen made a couple of errors and did not receive support at the crucial moments, he tossed a hypnotic ball and his activities in many respects were on par with his opponents's.

Official scorer, William Levon Brown Dempsey, the Dodger BY WILLIAM PICKENS Still dodging Harry Wills, and still being abetted in it by a large part of "white" sentiment, his latest postponement is that Wills must dispose of Gibbons. Just a little while ago it was "I will fight the winner" when Wills was being matched with Firpo. Of course, Dempsey and his accomplices were hoping to God that by some accident or other Firpo would dispose of Wills.

GLASS Washington, D. C., April 15—The first annual interclass track and field meet under the management of the Director of Department of Physical Education at Howard University, was run off Thursday, April 9th. It was a thrilling meet with the freshmen and seniors running neck and neck for top honors. The "dope"抬的 freshmen to win with an abundance of raw talent, not far from wrong as is evidenced by the scores: Seniors 44, Freshmen 42, Juniors 21, Souphores 16. "E" Anderson, the mainstay in field events and former Captain of the varsity track team was the high point man, totaling 29 points. He was first in the shot, discuss, lavelin and hammer. If a very Bright, Captain of this year's varsity track team, proved his superiority in the quarter and half mile events amassing 10 points. Bert Jones of his year's squad was second in the 160 and 220 dead sets. The Sophomore Pele DeLeton pulled a big surprise when he won the mile event in spectacular style over the senior's best list, "Silent Parker." Warring pulled a pretty rose dive over the last hurdle in the low hurdle race and this spill gave the Freshman all three. The team was by themselves in the Pole Vault, with "Texas" Shelvin leading. This kid, Shelvin was a real sensation taking second in both the 229 and the 440 yard dashes over "Country Hill," who lost year ago promise of being a find in these events. The Student Council will present the winners with a large bong cup which remains inside and remains the property of the Senior Class; for one year. This cup is to be awarded annually to the winners of the Annual Inter-Class Meet. Washington, D. C., April 15—Former stars of the chindipath at Howard University Medical School, Washington, D. C., were on hand to see the "Hill" boys compete against each other last Thursday, April 9th, in a thrilling 10-race meet. They were astonished at performance, but figure they can also point honors in a dual meet. Coach Watson's word is "Do what you know. Races are run with legs and not your tongue." The Medies say give us a chance at those kids and we will show you. The chance to show will be Saturday, April 18th, at J. p. m. on the field. The "Hill" boys feature to clean up in the field events with Big Anderson, Dan Miller, and Shilyn Shilin showing the way while the Medies are counting on Nichols, the undisputed distance champion to win the mile and 2 mile event; Wyndon in the half; Jason in the quarter and Carter in the sprints. VASHRUWS STR BASHERM GOOOS Washington, D. C., April 15—At the beginning of the seventh inning of the Stoner College Howard University baseball game played on Howard Campus, April 4th, the theft of several articles of clothing and personal effects belonging to visiting players was discovered. The less amounted to the theft, the thorities of Howard University and the Police Department at once furnishing clues that led to the arrest of the guilty parties. The theft was committed by agents of the city of Washington who have made a habit of hanging around the Howard University Campus when athletic games are in progress. The five men arrested have already pleaded guilty and accepted sentences and most of the property stolen has been recovered. The University authorities plan to take no chances hereafter but to employ a guard to protect the property and ensure that it is matter of satisfaction to all that at no time were Howard University students suspected and that the late development According to reports flitting through the air, negotiations that would bring Wills and Dempsey together if the same ring to settle their argument as to who is the best leather pusher are being carried to an end with no little degree of effectiveness, with a site selected, cutting capacity decided upon, the leather slipped around and various other lesser but still important matters gone through the washing machine, dried out and ready to be ironed up neatly. Big talk had been running amuck that Wills and Gibbons would mix at the Milk Fund Show and a number of fans had been looking forward to such a meeting, but Paddy, the Sphinx Man had a little something up his coat sleeve all the while and did not allow himself to grow weary of brow about what Eddie Kane said in reference to his man and Wills. It was a consensus of cook-gyed guesses that Gibbons and add a few more ducts to the slim holdings of the Mullins-Wills forces, but the unwerving eye of the latter would not be deviated from the bout of bouts and a battle of the century. Who the promoters of the proposed championship bout will be is still a matter of speculation, but who cares who the promoters are just so the scrap is in the making. It is also reported that the offer made the champion looks very attracting to Mons Kearns, who heads the managerial department of the Kearns-Dempsey combination, of which the latter divides his time between acting in the motion picture dodging coyotes, considering how we're interesting reports, Jimmy Deforest is no such a-much, because he climbed the Gibbons-Tunney mute when Mullins would not accept a bout with Thomas. In event Mullins had wanted to do business with the St. Paul fighter, veteran Jimmy would have been out of luck. Mullins' stand proves to the knocked public that he wants Wills-Dempsey match and nothing else IT IS FINE! —So say the coffee drinkers of Norfolk and vicinity about Kenny's Popular 40c Coffee.

With the losses loaded and nobody out, Lee fanned the next two batters, and the third diamond popped a high foul to Jefferson for the third out. St. Paul used fifteen men in the first half. Wade pitched was all right. Quinn, Covington, Artis, Williams, Jefferson and Jones played a snoppy and fire game.

Doped to win by a top, heavy store, the nine of State Normal School had no end of trouble with the team from the Franklin High School, Friday April 10, and the Carolina team won a decision after the hardest kind of trouble. The game was one of the outstanding upsets of the season and showed beyond a doubt the great improvement of the Franklin team. Hamlin started the game for Franklin and twirled masterful ball for five innings when he turned the game over to Johnny LaFleur of Franklin team, whose delivery was tremendous. For the rest of the game Franklin outplayed its opponent. Three times the Virginia team got as far as third base, but lacked the final drive to carry over but one score across the home plate. R. Hamlin, Morris, Taylor, E. Hamlin starred for the losers, with Pitchford doing stellar work behind the bat. The over-confidence of State Normal almost proved ruinous to them. F. H.

Harris preached a sermon for the occasion subject, “The ‘Temporal and the Things Eternal,” taking his text, Il Cor, 4:18, He Degan showing the evidence of the change and transiency of things on every hand. “The U. S. France and Great Britain, all look stable but they are not necessarily go—things of Egypt,’ Babylon, Greece and Rome, interesting to- day as history looks—think of the Benerations that come and go. From 31 to 32 million people dic every year. So evident is this change to any casual observer that an old philosopher said, There is nothing permanent but a change." With his audience carefully follow. ing, Rev. Harris at once asked the question, “Is there anything that Tasis 2" ’ All say yes, but some say - it is matter—turn then to St. Paul, ‘Not the things scen but the things nol ‘seen,’ spiritual life, character, love. “That is what the resurree- tion’ of Christ reveals to us. Unseen Is Supreme “The unseen is supreme even in the: physical world. The planets, mountains and oceans are marvel- ‘ous but not half so much as the in- visible gravitation which holds these things into position, Even a little flower is more wonderful, because it lives. Turn then from the physical to the personal. How much more wonderful a little child, He lives, he loves, he has «person. ality, a character. You have nev- er seen anyone, you only see the body the physical form. When you look on the corpse, you see everything you have ever seen and yet you do not see the person be- eause he has gone. Are you pre- pared to say then that that corpse ig what lasts and that, personality that you have known is the thing thatperishes? ‘Not things seen but the things not seen.’ Doctrine of Immortality | «Prom the Christian doctrine of immortality we do not only get the idea of expansion and growth. Vou see a child at ten and this personality is at one stage, at 15 it is at another and at 20 it is at another and so it continues. It is at its ripest just before the end. An apple is ripest when it drops off the tree. Then you say it stops—not so, this expansion and development continues even in the life beyond, ‘Our outward man is decaying, yet our inward man is renewed day by day.’—Paul. ‘Now are we the sons of God and it doth not yet appear what we shall be, but we know that when he shall be manifested we shall be, like him we shall eee him as he is.’ “Lastly, autho we may not know the details of the life beyond We know enough, we know that Jesus is there. ' Otherwise you cannot explain the church nor preaching, nor even Christianity. He .is there and “because I live ye | shall live also.’ ‘I gb to prepare a place for you.’ So he is there and all those that love his appearing. If it is true then, that the things not seen are eternal, character, spiritual life in: Christ and love. It follows then that our duty is to de- velop now these things rather than the things which are seen. Ig, ye then be risen with Christ Which are those things which are above where Christ sitteth:on ee | right hand of God.” ‘After the sermon the choir ren- | Jered mest beautifully: “When the Sabbath’ Was, Past’ “At 4:30 p. m, there was a pro- gram rendered by the church school with .recitations, solos and singing of carols.

Sunday school scholars of all churches were treat- ed to Egg hunts, and all day long on Easter Monday little children were seen going to and fro swing- ing from their arms cute Easter baskets.

BO. F. MOSS, Chr Block Day World Is Remade By Modern Ideals | Hampton, Va., April 15—Dr. | Willystine Goodsell, assistant pro- fessor in the history of education, Teachers College, Columbia Uni- versity, who was recently intro- duced by Dr. James EB. Gregg to the Hampton Institute workers and students at the Sunday evening chapel service, held in Ogden Hall, spoke on “The Transforming Power of Ideals.” Doctor Goodsell, after an inspec- tion of the Institute, addressed a general assembly of the School of Home Economics, of which Mrs. Blanch W. Purcell is the director. Doctor Goodsell, in her chapel address, expressed her profound belief in this ago as an age of re- nascence of the human spirit. She referred to Hampton Institute as the realization of a dream. She discussed briefly the ideals of “Peace on earth, good will toward men,’ social and industrial justice for the masses of workers, and making of life more beautiful and humane for those who work in in- dustrial centers.

The next concert will take place ‘Sun- da_yafternoon, April 26, at 3:30 o'clock. 7 PLAYGROUNDS REDUCE JUVENILE DELINQUENCY Colored Americans last year ¢n- joyed health-giving play in 179 public recreation centers and play- grounds maintained for their ex- elusive use, according to the Year Book of the Playground and Ree- reation Association of America, just issued. More and more cities are realizing that their Negro cit- zens can get no reereation except the expensive and degrading com- mercialized kind, states the Asso- ciation, and so they are providing in colored neighborhoods play-lead- crs und facilities for wholesome good times. Outdoor ‘playgrounds were opened last year for the first time. Twenty-two ilies stated the aver- age number of colored children who daily enjoyed these grounds, and the total is 14389. Nine cities veported the total valuation of their playgriunds for colored chil- dren to be St12,000. Social evenings, athletics, music and dramaties were among the ac- tivities furnished for colored citi- zens, both grown-ups and children, by {6 indoor reereation centers in 37 cities, says the Year Book. ‘The total value of these centers in five cities was reported at $97,000. Playgrounds Red uce Delin- quency From Columbus, Ga., which last year opened a playground for col- ored children, comes this report, “The playground has more than justified its expense, if for no other reuson that the juvenile delinquen- jey among colored boys has been cut down materially. Of course its greatest benefit has been in pro- viding supervised recreation for hundreds of colored children who had never known what a play- ground meant.” The Columbus playground was made possible by 2 playground ‘committee organized among the col- ored people of the city. They se- cured the use of six acres of land and raised the funds to equip it. The city Playground Board super- vised the layout of the playground and furnished a paid leader. Orangeburg, S. C., has recently made a beginning in the estab- lishment of recreation parks where colored people may meet and enjoy outdoor activities, The first such park has an artificial lake,_ five sunken gardens, and a neat’ little administration building. Several rustic bridges have been built over the stream that crosses the grounds and the grove affords shade all day. Colored people of the city have given personal Iabor toward the development of uke park. National Bureau Assists Cities credit much of their ex- pansion in providing recreation for Colored people to the aid of the Bu- reau of Colored Work of the Play- ground and Recreation Association of America. In 1921 this Bureau kave personal service to forty cities and help by correspondence to ninety additional cities in meet- ing the play and recreation ‘problems of their colored citizens.

To help through available channels of information to ascer- tain points at which there is an oversupply of Negro labor, and to use existing agencies of publicity and placement to direct Negro la- bor, includinding migrants, to those points where they are most needed and where their families Will most easily become adjusted. ‘The Department of Research and Investigations of the League, Chas.

J. B. DUDLEY Remains Interred In Family Plot At Wilmington; Prof. Bluford, Dean of A. and T. Becomes Acting Principal. Greensboro, N. C., April 11—The special services over the remains of Dr. J. B. Dudley were held in Puppy Hall, the new dining room recently finished and dedicated, fifteen hundred persons were sent, including a large number of every prominent men of both several of whom paid tribute to his life and work. Among those who spoke were Prof. C. S.ible, Chairman of the Board of Masters, and for forty years an friend of Dr. Dudley's, A. M. Scales, member of the board and former Senator; Prof. O. Jackson, vice president of with Carolina College for Women Dr. J. R. Hawkins, financial secretary of A. M. E. Church. The wives were conducted by Rev. E. Stroud, pastor of Bethel A. E. Church, Greensboro, of which Dr. Dudley was for many years an regular. After the funeral, the body lay state in Murphy Hall until 10:00 am, when it was taken to Wittington, N. C., his native home, there was a military escort andaps" were sounded as, for the time, he passed under the arch, final farewell was again sounded at the train bearing the remains killed out from the station. At a special Pullman car on the train carried the family and sends to Wittington, where, with a family and friends who had one before, he was laid to rest full Masonic honors. At the exercises in Wilmington many more prominent men of both sexes spoke, testifying to the long useful life of the deceased; of gentleness, his self-sacrifice, and services to the Race, the State of the Country. Dr Dudley is survived by his widow, Mrs. B. B. Dudley and a daughter, Mrs. S. B. Jones, whose husband, Dr. S. B. Jones, is health officer of St. Kitts, British West Africa. Monday, April 6, at a call meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees, Prof. F. J. Bluford, Dean of the institution, was elected Acting Principal to fill out the unexpired term of the late President Dudley. Prof. Bluford has been connected with the institution for twelve years, six of which he has been Dean. He is a graduate of Union and Howard universities and has done postgraduate work at Columbia University. Dr. James H. Dudley, was not the first president of the college as many seem to think. The first president was Dr. J. O. Crossby, of Albursby, who held the position from 1891 to 1896. But it was under President Dudley that the School really took hold and began to claim the serious attention and confidence of both races. And it has grown. He found fifty students; he left over five hundred. He found physical equipment worth about a hundred thousand dollars; he left it worth a million. North Carolina has hardly produced another man who has been as able as Dr. Dudley to get and hold the confidence of both races, the public press, the different governors and registrars in the interest of his school during the nearly thirty years of his administration.

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE MISS LEWIS TALKS ON NEGRO AND ART TO THE BOOK CLUB Well Known Writer Declares Race Has Made Distinct Contribution to Art; Not So Accomplished in Sculpture. Raleigh, N. C., April 17—"The Negro in Arts" was the subject of a talk given Saturday night, April 10, by Miss Nell Battle Lewis at a meeting of The Book Club, an organization of our group in Raleigh, held at the home of Prof. Benjamin Brawley, of the Department of English at Shaw University. Miss Lewis discussed the leading accomplishments of Negroes in music, literature, the drama, painting and sculpture. She stated that she believed the greatest artist gift of the Negro as a race is musical, although the Negro has also been especially successful in poetry, and to a less extent in the drama. In painting and sculpture, she said, not so much has been accomplished by the race. Miss Lewis read a number of poems by well known Negro poets, among them, Phyllis Wheatley, George Horton, Paul Lawrence Dunbar, Jessie Faucer, Georgia Douglass Johnson, and others. She especially emphasized the two Negro writers who have lived in North Carolina, Horton, the slavepoet who was a native of the State, and Charles W. Chesnutt, the novelist, who taught school in North Carolina for several years. "The Negro has made a distinct contribution to the art in America," Miss Lewis said, "a contribution that is the more remarkable in view of the comparatively brief period that free artistic expression has been possible for your race. I look forward with interest and good will to your further progress along artistic lines and to a larger development of your genuine artistic endowment."

"LOCKED DOORS" AT THE COLONIAL "LOCKED DOORS" AT THE COLONIAL That the Colonial is showing the best pictures obtainable is proven by the fact that next Monday they will show "Locked Doors" one of Paramount's best. In "Locked Doors," written for the screen by Clara Beranger, William de Mille has one of his finest young wife who fell in love with a human appeal, telling of a pretty young wife who fall in love with a young employee of her millionaire-architect husband. Betty Compson, whose first appearance in a William de Mille production was in "The Fast Set," plays the young wife in "Locked Doors." Robert Edenson, who scored a big success in "The Bedroom Window," also a de Mille production, appears as the husband. Theodore Roberts, who returns to the screen in this picture after a year's absence, has the part of the young wife's father, a role as memorable as his "Grumpy," a third de Mille-Paramount. Kathlyn Williams is Edeson's sister in the picture and Theodore von Eltz is cast as the young lover. The story centers around the little family and the employee in the architect's office. The marriage between youth and age is a loveless affair, brought about by the young woman's desire to give her father a comfortable home. Betty mets von Eltz, but not knowing his identity, the call of youth brings the two together, while the sister of the husband whispers disturbing stories into the latter's ears. The climax is a gripping solution of an age-old problem. Do not fail to see this masterpiece. No change in prices. OLIVE BRANCH —Mrs. Rosa B.

After Madame Roland by Edmund Burke at long distance: "Oh, Black Mammy of the South, how many crimes are committed in thy name!" What a splendid philanthropy Mr. Julius Rosenwald of Chicago has instituted and sustains in building rural schools in fourteen Southern states! The budget this year calls for the expenditure of $450,000 for school construction and $25,000 for other purposes. The good resulting from the Rosenwald philanthropy cannot be overestimated. Dean Kelly Miller says: "The Negro politician has little or no imagination. He seldom ever applies for any position except the one that has been previously held by a member of the race." It is not expected of white or colored politicians that they should have imagination; we expect that of statesmen, and that accounts for the small number of real statesmen we have on hand at any given time. Member of Norfolk's Finest Typifies Easter Spirit There was a crowd of Easter shoppers, good natured and hurrying, all intent on making ready for the celebration of the joyous Eastertide. The corner of Church and Brambleton Ave., Saturday afternoon, was a difficult place for even an adult to navigate safely. Two little tots, a boy and a girl, neither of whom looked over four years-old, wanted to cross the street, and while they waited uncertainly, a big, kindly police man took the little girl's hand and with a courteous an air as if he were escorting royalty, saw them safely to the other side. Had he been the officer on duty there, one would not have noticed the act particularly, but he seemed to be just on his way to the Second Precinct Station, and even though he was in a hurry, there was time for a gracious act. The trusting, happy faces of the youngsters, as they went on their way, caused the one who observed this act, to have a new faith in the innate kindness of the representatives of the law. Baltimore Wants Principal Reynolds Just at the time the new Booker T. Washington school and its high standards have become the subject of very favorable comment among educators of note who have visited here, and the pride of Norfolk citizens, the city of Baltimore reaches out to take away Principal Reynolds. He has been tendered the position of Supervising Principal of Colored Schools for that city at an attractive salary. Should Prof. Reynolds decide to accept the tender, that will constitute cause for regret on the part of those who have an abiding interest in the education of the local youth. His work along educational lines, covering many years in various responsible positions has been outstanding. It has been no less conspicuous during his brief tenure here. The realization of that fact makes his services sought elsewhere. But if Principal Reynolds' abilities are of such a quality that the Baltimore school authorities are convinced that they are needed in that city, that is all the more reason why Norfolk should be convinced that they are needed here. What is good enough for Baltimore is none too good for Norfolk. The city has invested more than a half-million dollars in the new Booker Washington school, and has put at the head of it an executive, who in a few months has demonstrated, in so far as the public is informed, his ability to measure up to the job of administering it. There seems to be no reason why Norfolk should not retain him. Moreover, the new school is a big project. If the investment it represents is to yield full returns, the school must always be under the immediate administration of a capable executive. High powered and high priced plants demand high powered and high priced men. Prof. Reynolds is needed in Norfolk and it is to be hoped that the local school board will find ways and means to retain him. Editorial Page of Good Counsel Recorder of Deeds Arthur G.

Recorder of Deceds Arthur G. Froe in his recent speech in this city uttered a bit of counsel that ought not to go unheeded. The speech, bristling with an eloquent array of facts was conspicuous in its timely urgency upon colored citizens to exercise the right of suffrage. The Recorder appreciated so seriously the situation as relates to the American Negro and the ballot, that he expressed himself as believing it just as important that those to whom he was speaking should vote, and vote intelligently on all issues submitted to the referendum of the American electorate, as it was for them to assemble in the sacred edifice and send up supplications to the Deity. Whether the use of the ballot is as essential to the welfare of any element of citizens in a Republic as is invoking the blessings of the Deity may form a question for interesting debate. But whether free institutions, including the unabridged right to assemble and worship according to the dictates of one's conscience, shall remain permanently secure in a Republic where a very substantial element of law abiding, tax-paying citizens neglect to use, or are denied the use of the ballot is undebatable. The forces of disintegration work insidiously at the foundation of any government in which the will of millions of its people is submerged to the dictates of a ruling class. Rightly did Mr. Froe state that petitions, supplications, mass meetings and bitter newspaper articles will correct no wrongs. "But you have the solution right before you—so close to you, so easy that you may have overlooked it—and that is, make yourself eligible to vote and vote religiously and with as much devotion as you would worship the Deity." A Testimonial of Love The above caption is the sub-title booklet just off the press dedicated to Maggie Lena Walker, Right Worthy Secretary, Grand United Order of St. "Maggie Lena Walker," is the main "Testimonial of Love," is an attempt expression to the love and aston in The above caption is the sub-title of a booklet just off the press dedicated to Mrs. Maggie Lena Walker, Right Worthy Grand Secretary, Grand United Order of St. Lukes. "Maggie Lena Walker," is the main title. "Testimonial of Love," is an attempt to give expression to the love and esteem in which the subject of the sketch is held by members of the order, her co-workers and the public with whom her quarter-century of devoted service to her race has brought her in contact. The word "attempt" in the above sentence is used, because no printed or uttered word can ever do full justice to the remarkable service of Mrs. Maggie Lena Walker, nor correctly convey the feelings of her people towards her. It is a splendid testimonial, however, about the very highest that a sincere and appreciative people can express thru the finest printercraft. The booklet is brilliantly edited; the speeches, biographical sketch and messages contained therein are of a literary excellence. The best of the printer's art has been brought into play, in execution of the work, and it stands out as a product of the best brains and taste found in the craft. In keeping with the high purpose of the sketch and the outstanding art of the printer, the paper used is of a superb quality. All in all it is the finest and most enduring tribute that can be paid the living. The subject is worth the treatment given it, and the St. Luke Press wins the admiration of its fellow craftsmen for its excellent production, and the admiration of the public for its lofty conception. Religious Worker At State Hospital Efforts that the Rev. R. V. Lancaster, of Richmond, Director of Religious Work in State Institutions, is making to gain the support of local churches in a movement to secure the appointment of a religious worker at the State Hospital for the Insane at Petersburg should command the endorsement of the religious bodies of Norfolk. It seems quite odd that in this day of vigorous missionary activities there should be a group of 2,200 persons housed in an institution in this country without having the opportunity to obtain spiritual solace at any and all times thru the ministrations of a responsible head. A constitutional inhibition makes it legally impractical for the State to appropriate funds for the futherance of religious work. There is a number of patients in this hospital who enjoy long periods of lucidity, and others whose intervals of mental normality are more abbreviated. A kind, tactful and consecrated minister capable of taking a deep interest in these unfortunate people might, thru his ability to radiate love, happiness and religious philosophy do much to make their lot the easier to bear, and in many cases expedite their recovery. Six-hundred dollars annually is needed to make possible the employment of a religious worker at the institution. The churches of Richmond and Petersburg have pledged $200.00 as each city's quota. Norfolk is asked to provide the other $200.00. Here is presented a splendid opportunity for Home Mission societies to do more work in the Master's vineyard. Norfolk Journal and Guide James B.

Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, in a thesis published in the March number of Scientific Monthly has made a valuable contribution to unbiased literature and scientific expositions on the comparison of races. He says in part: My single present purpose is to utter a brief caveat against the loose, wild, hasty, clearly unscientific generalizations which have confused the thinking even of intelligent and scholarly persons upon these matters. In few fields of human inquiry, I venture to believe, has there been such unrestrained darkening counsel) by words without knowledge.

One might have supposed that the World War would have put an end to the intellectual arrogance not only of Houston Stewart Chamberlain, but also of his disciples and the whole cult of "Nordic self-laudation. But it continues; and one sees even in such titles as "The Passing of the Great Race" and "The Rising Tide of Color" the not over-suble suggestion that the progress of the peoples of the earth who do not happen to have pale skins must bring overwhelming disaster and perhaps annihilation to those who do happen to have pale skins. The innate inferiority of the darker races is commonly taken for granted; when statistics are gathered and used, they are sometimes gathered carelessly and used not quite justly; and when the powers of a despised race are under discussion there is often an undue freedom in the assertion of the universal negative, with a surprising neglect of the logical axiom that only a single contrary instance is needed for the refutation of such argument. To come down to specific facts, a recent and widely discussed case of this sort has been the examination of the "intelligence," so-called, of the drafted men in the Army of the United States during the World War, and the inferences drawn from the resulting figures. The Alpha test, given to the literate soldiers, covered, in the data which were gathered for study, 108,500 white men and 19,000 Negroes. On the basis of these data, it was concluded that the average mental age of the Negroes was 10.4. But it should be remarked that these tests were commonly given, so far as we know; by white men to white soldiers, not by black men to either white or black soldiers. When you have a white officer ex- Health Notes "Stand and deliver" has been the command of robbers and highwaymen since the days of Robin Hood and his daring band. There are thieves, however, who dare not come out into the open, but who steal the property of others through trickery, misrepresentation and fraud. In this class belong the two age old diseases of syphilis and gonorrhea. Under the protection afforded by indulgent society, by ignorance and by suppression of the facts through false prudery, venereal diseases have been robbing men, women and children of health and wealth from the days of earliest history down to the present time. Right now, they are holding up the people of this nation and saying in effect, "Stand and deliver!" Staggering Cost Staggering Cost Just how much do venereal diseases cost the country and the individual? It is, of course, impossible to give an exact answer or even an accurate estimate, but the bill is known to be enormous. In the six years from 1919 to 1924 inclusive, it is estimated that venereal diseases have caused an economic loss to the United States of $2,800,000-000; and this total completely ignores many of the losses caused by syphilis and gonorrhea. This represents a drain of $25 upon every man, woman and child in the country—a drain that is felt by the healthy and the unhealthy, by the rich as well as by the poor. Getting The Total Getting The Total Let us see how this total is arrived at. It has been estimated that venereal diseases cost the country approximately $300,000,000 a year in decreased efficiency of the general population, $51,000,000 for the care of insane syphililities, $97,500,000 in amining a black private there is a variable factor of fear, hesitation and unreported misunderstanding for which some allowance should be made, and for which, so far as I know, no allowance has ever yet been made. What is called in logic "the universe of discourse" of the black soldier and his white examiner must frequently have been entirely different. The black man might easily fail to grasp what the white man was asking him. A few years ago, when visiting the Indian reservations in South Dakota, I found that Indian boys and girls applying for admission to Hampton Institute were invariably stumped by the question in the application blank, "Have you any physical defects?" They could talk English, but not that kind of English: those two words meant nothing to them. One suspects that a similar gap between the language of the white psychologist and the Negro or foreign-born private soldier must have occurred much oftener than was ever revealed. Furthermore, it has been pointed out by Dr. Horace M. Bond, the median scores of the white recruits from certain Southern states were below those of the Negro recruits from certain Northern state. His table of comparison follows: The simple, natural, obvious, conclusion, to be drawn from such figures is the one to which Dr. Bagley, of Columbia, and many other experts have come: that the army tests revealed not so much native, inherent intellectual alertness or ability as general knowledge based upon schooling and home backgrounds. Inevitably the Negro soldier whose school experience had covered only three, four or five months in the year would, as a rule, make a poorer showing than the white soldier who had gone to school for more months in the year and probably for more years of his childhood. But there is no material here for dogmatic statements about the comparative inborn ability of the two groups. With this view accords the conclusion of Miss Ada H. Ashitt, after studying several hundred children of different races in a district of New York City. She writes: "No study of racial differences which fails to take into consideration the social status of the group tested can be considered valid." Saturday, April 18, 1925 economic losses on the insane (represented by lost earning capacity), $3,000,000 for the care of persons blind from gonorrhea, and $10,000,000 for the treatment of venereally diseased men and women. Here is a yearly charge of $461,500,000, and a six year waste of $2,769,000,000. When the money spent by the state and national governments in venereal disease control during that period of time is added, the cost of venereal disease is increased by some $11,000,000—making a grand total of $2,800,000,000.

Who were the elected by African Rome? E. S. D., St. Incidental Losses Incidental Losses Large as this sum is, it fails to include many losses which may be charged to syphilis and gonorrhea and which, in some cases, are not borne by the state but only by individualals. It does not include the cost of venereal disease control work in the army and navy (which was between 15 and 20 million dollars in 1919), nor the money spent by counties, cities and towns, nor the cost of hundreds of operations on married women made necessary by innocent gonorrheal infection. Neither does it include funeral expenses. It omits charges for a certain amount of crime and delinquency, with a consequent share in the operating expenses of the courts, jails and reformatories, which venereal disease may cause. It takes no account of millions of dollars paid to prostitutes each year—millions which might have been put to a more beneficial and legitimate use. Where all these things are taken into account the combined cost of venereal disease to the state and to the individual is greatly increased. At the Australiasian Medical Congress in 1923, it was said that venereal diseases caused Australia an economic waste of $240,000,000 a year, a sum amounting to $50 for every person in the country. That loss is annual. Furthermore, it is unnecessary. To be continued The Negro Press A God-Send Until the last decade our group has had no public voice, no one to extol their views, virtues and achievements, nobody to champion their cause. The last phrase has no reference to the much used and equally abused term, Negro problem, because personally, I feel there is no such thing, but possibly members of some other group have made a problem of their own. The Negro Press as an organization, together with other agencies, such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and others, has revolutionized things in our favor, and deservedly so. The press is and always has been the mouthpiece for all groups, races and nations. We feel very proud of our press, and of the editors of the various publications. As men they are very able, thoughtful, modest, and unassuming, and as editors they are fearless, but not foolish and antagonistic, conservative but not cringing, quiet but ever on the alert to set right misguided thoughts and writings, and wrong actions, on the part of persons who, seeing things in the wrong light, express themselves likewise. This holds good with all kinds and classes. They will take issue with members of their own group as well as others, who publicly act and express themselves in such a way that tends to disseminate a feeling of discontent and dissention, and in a way to create race prejudice and antagonism. It seems to work no hardship on these very competent editors to convince readily the public, that the same God lives today who hundreds of years ago gave His only Son for the redemption of mankind, and that His teachings are applicable to all equally and alike. They have no trouble having the readers of their papers understand that the fatherhood of God and brotherhood of man means the same as did when the Christchild was born in the manger. With still more ease their readers seem to realize that one and the same author does not write two or three or more kinds of philosophies and psychologies, in order to meet the whims and fancies of various groups, but all are alike, even though a different interpretation is put upon them by different groups. The Negro Press in its kindly spirit teaches through its columns in a very convincing way that the laws of the federal government, of the various states, of the cities and counties apply to all citizens alike—and every QUESTIONS AND ANSWE IN NEGRO HISTORY BY GEORGE WELLS PARKER Author of the Children of the Sun Questions pertaining to Negro history anywhere if of general interest and not too long will be answered by Mr. Parker in this column. When space will not permit or the subject Q. Who were the emperors elected by Africans to rule Rome? E. S. D., St. Louis, Mo. A. I presume you refer to Gordianus and his son, who were proconsuls of Rome to Africa and whom the Africans chose as emperors, the Roman Senate confirming the election. These two were not native Africans, however. The two African emperors of Rome were Septimus Severus and Caricalla. Q. How many cities were under the rule of Carthage? N. N. P. A. According to Strabon there were three hundred. Q. Were Negroes slaves under the the Romans? D. L. J. Richmond, Va. A. Rome, during the empire, had all kind of slaves, these being chiefly persons captured in war. They were white as well as black. There were many wealthy African maidens in one is a citizen who measures up to certain requirements, and we are all happy to know that most of all groups measure up to these said requirements. The Press sets forth its editorials in a very forcible way, all that men and women of any group want is fair play and a square deal, and that every citizen of this great democracy is entitled to a decent livelihood. Th editors of the Press teach in a most alluring way that when one is a citizen of the United States during times of war and pestilence, that same person is a citizen of this country during times of peace. They have also shown in a most remarkable manner that when one is citizen enough to pay city, state and federal taxes, that same person is equally a citizen in every other particular. They have taught in a satisfactory way that persons who are deceitful, hypocritical, elusive and evasive are only fooling themselves and not those to whom their words are addressed. The public has agreed after reading various editorials of these gentlemen, that it is impossible for a perfectly clean, healthy person of one group to transmit a disease of any kind, either contagious, infectious, benign or malignant, to one of another group by simply passing him, or tipping his hat to him, him, or tipping his hat to him, or sitting near him in a house or on a conveyance of some kind. Any opinion to the opposite is directly contrary to medical science. They have also taught that there is no place in this world for a. pessimist. These editors have convincingly shown that the color of ones skin, and the texture of ones hair have absolutely nothing to do with ones capabilities, any more than with the price of beans. The Negro Press has very clearly and, to the satisfaction of all concerned, shown that this big flower garden of ours, with its varigations in regard to color and kind, is not of our own making, and neither did these mulattoes just happen like Topsy, but the seeds were sown, and some special person sowed them, and they did sprout and grow, and much to the ultimate disappointment and dissatisfaction of the florists they did multiply, and have been grafted and disseminated all over this country. The editors have made all their readers see very planily that it is very unfair and unjust to brand all members of a group alike, also that it is much easier to remember the disagreeable and degrading things, than those that are elevating and uplifting. They show that there is a studied effort on the part of the members of some groups to keep before the public only the undesirables of other groups. They have convinced all their readers that one group in a community cannot rise to higher attainments along cultural, spiritual, educational economic or any other line, without lifting up to a higher standard any and every other group in that respective community, and vice versa. They have laid much stress on the point that wilful and purposeful misinterpretation of facts does not do the good intended by the guilty parties. They have also shown that one very essential thing for all groups is to protect their women. (Copyright 1924 by A.
