BOUSFIELD HEADS THE LIBERTY INSURANCE CO Acting President Promoted By Board of Directors; New Leader Received Training Under Late President. (By Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, Ill., May 4—Training young men for leadership is one of the newer trends of Negro business. It was emphasized here last Tuesday when in a session marked by fealty and reverence for their late chieftain, Frank L. Gillespie, and a determination to carry out his policies, the directors of Liberty Life Insurance Company named Dr. M. O. Bousfield acting president to fill the unexpired term. It developed that Mr. Gillespie, genial yet dynamic leader that he was, planned far ahead for his organization. Per haps, mindful that his days might be numbered, he had in building the organization to which he drew many bright young men, carefully schooled the man who, as first vice president he expected to be his successor. (National Service) New York, May 17—Charles Godfrey, one of the most popular colored members of the New York police force, is dead. He was buried on Sunday morning from the funeral parlor of W. David Brown, 2315 Seventh avenue, with full police and military honors. The services, conducted at the same place, were officiated over by police Chaplains James J. McCafry, and Isidore Frank. Appropriate solos, including "Lead Kindly Light" and "Nearer My God To Thee," were rendered by the Police Glee Club under the direction of Licut. Patrick FitzGibbons. Just before the impressive cortegue moved down Seventh avenue south from 136th street, a company of the Ffteenth Regiment assembled, Godfrey having served with the 369th, in France during the World War. The floral pieces included one sent by the Police Department. Funeral Procession At exactly fifteen minutes after nine, the funeral procession, headed by Inspector William K. Van Euren, Col. Herman A. Metz, Deputy Commissioner John Leach, Police Military Instructor, Charles H. Stoffers, and a fine division of the New York Police Department, started down Seventh avenue which had been crowded with spectators long, before the hour set for the ceremonies. Behind these followed a full detachment of police from Godfrey's precinct, led by DEAD MAN'S WIFE HELPS MURDERER DISPOSE OF BODY Man Confesses To Brutal Crime, Implicates Spouse Of His Victim Who Played Part In Mysterious Tragedy COOLY RELATES DEED TO POLICE OFFICIALS (Special to The Journal and Guide.) Monroe, N. C., May 22 —Robert Steele, has confessed to Union county officers that he took the life of Will Cauthens, another member of our group, whose body was found in a shallow in Sandy Ridge Township on Thursday afternoon May 14. Cauthens's throat had been slashed from ear to ear. There was also a broad gash on the head as if it had been struck with an axe or heavy knife. Two fingers of the left hand were also missing, the inference being that these were lost in efforts to ward off a blow. Steele's Version According to Steele's version, the killing took place on the night of May 2. The confession was made to Sheriff Clifford Fowler, in the presence of Officers Frank Niven, Will Armfield, John Williams and Green Whitley. Coroner P. M. Abernathy, and several others were also present. In substance, Robert Steele said: "Saturday afternoon me and my wife and Mary Cauthens, Will Cauthens's wife, went to Waxhaw in my buggy. We got home late and Will was at my house. I started toward their home with them, our homes being about half-mile apart. When we got a short way Will said'_____you, I've got you, and struck me with a stick on the shoulder. I grappled with him, and he was trying to get his knife from his pocket. I got my knife first, and had his head under my left arm. I cut his throat and the gashes under his head and his hands." "Then what did you do?" asked Sheriff Fowler. "He was laying on the ground and I picked him up by the shoulders, Mary carrying his feet, and we carried him down through the pasture and threw him into the creek." Captain Edward P. Mulrooney. Then came police reserves, consisting of men and women, who were directly in front of the military ciassion on which the casket was borne, draped with an American flag. Carriages of family and friends came last. Was Small Man Charles Godfrey, small physically and a mere youth, was considered as one of the most efficient officers on the force. He was murdered by Chas, Kerr a fellow officer, in West 137th street on Tuesday night, during a free for all fight which, it is said, was precipitated by Gillian Fuller, a reserve, when unknown men insulted his wife. Fuller, and Mrs. Maud Newby, an innocent passerby, are still confined in Harlem hospital from pistol shots received in the fracas. Neither is expected to live. A second man was also killed by flying bullets. Policeman Chas. Kerr, who killed Godfrey, reported to his superior officers that the killing was purely accidental, that during the excitement he did not recognize Godfrey who was off duty and in civilian clothes, and that he shot simply a t two running figures one of whom was Godfrey. Kerr has since been tried on a charge of homicide and acquitted.

(National Service) New York, N. Y., May 21—Mrs. Blanche Deas Harris, formerly one of America's leading operatic sing- ers, opened on the 15th, of October 1923, at 410 St. Nicholas avenue, a private kindergarten. She started with one lad, and with the purpose of im- posing upon the com-munity's younger genera-tion the sort of instruction that results in the ultimate mak-ing of rea-ling men-and women.

A recent inspection of the children now under her shows that she is building better than she knew. If when they have grown older and passed from under her supervision they should be found infesting street corners, and the various disreputable dance places with which New York is apparently cursed, particularly in colored settlements, it will not be because they did not receive from their instructress a correct inspiration for useful civic service. Quite Young Woman Mrs. Harris is a very young woman, and a pioneer in her field. She began a career on the stage. Her rendition of "My Cavalier," the Spanish waltz song, at the Lafayette Theatre several years ago is still much talked about. Many of those who heard her in this and other songs frequently inquire if she will ever return to concert work. Occupied with and engrossed in the work now of teaching none of those who know her well thinks that she will. What her future plans are in the further development of her educational idea cannot be said, but from every indication it is modest and safe to say that these plans involve eventual expansion to meet the requirements of her continually growing class of young citizens. Court Permits Man To Thrash Masher (By Associated Negro Press.) Philadelphia, P., May 21—Arrested after he had struck a man whom he accused of insulting his sweetheart as he was escorting her home early Friday morning, Joseph Cosetti, Hartwell avenue, near Germantown avenue, was given permission by magistrate Costello to continue the thrashing, during the hearing Saturday morning in the Germantown police station. JUNIUS SMITH IS KILLED BY TRUCK Junius Smith, 607 East Brambleton avenue, suffered injuries from which he shortly died when run over by an auto truck belonging to the Anheuser-Bush Ice and Cold Storage Company at the corner of Bank and Cove streets Wednesday morning at 11:15 o'clock. Smith was riding a bicycle when struck by the ponderous machine, driven by Sam Gray, colored. Gray was arrested by Officers H. A. Shannon, H. L. Whitmer and H. E. Hutchinson on charges of reckless driving and involuntary manslaughter. Junius Smith was a well known figure in this city. He conducted a newstand and bootblack parlor at the Brambleton avenue address. He is said to have been prominently connected with a number of fraternal organizations. Speaking On Third Annual Memorial Of John Brown, The Immortal Abolitionists, Editor Arraigns Coolidge. SAYS REPUBLIC STILL HALF SLAVE, HALF FREE (By Associated Negro Press.) Lake Placid, N. Y., May 21—The John Brown Memorial Association, led by Dr. J. Max Barber, of Philadelphia held its third annual memorial service, and also celebrated the 125th anniversary of John Brown's birth at the grave of the old abolitionist here Thursday. The outstanding feature of the celebration was an address by Oswald Garrison Villard, grandson of William Lloyd Garrison. He took to task officials of the United States from President Coolidge down, who are sworn to enforce the Constitution, before which "every child in America must how as if it were a Gessler's hat before which, once Swiss peasants had to worship, and yet, who openly wink at the disfranchisement of colored people in the South. Speaking in the Town Hall at Lake Placid, Mr. Villard said: "However one feels about John Brown, whether one believes in his doctrine of violence or not, there is one thing-about him to which we can all point in admiring, and that is his devotion to his cause. That is one of the great lessons of his life. For what he believed to be right he was willing to spend his life, and before that, he was willing to give all his time, energy and strength. Let no man sneer at this, particularly not at this time in our history when the whole trend of modern life is away from serious purposes, interested in jazz, the automobile, the radio, baseball and every other form of sport. Says Republic Half Free "We are still endeavoring to carry on a Republic half slave and half free. Naturally, I refer, among other things, to the condition of the colored people for whom John Brown gave his life. Their disfranchisement continues and few people lift up their voices in protest. Through that disfranchisement the Constitution of the United States, that every child in America must how before as if it were a Gessler's hat before which once the Swiss peasants had to worship, is daily violated. Curiously enough, the societies for the defense of the Constitution, the Daughters of the American Revolution and all our other patriotic societies are silent about this flouting of the sacred document which contains our fundamental laws. The South profits by it, and Congress refuses to act and reduce the southern representation. Offenders Against Constitution The worst offenders against the Constitution today are not the handful of extremists who would move against it by extra legal measures, but the officials of our country from the President of the United States down, who are sworn to uphold the Constitution and, regard it like so many other laws, as something to be enforced when they see fit, and when it suits their purposes. The present President gives us one homily after another as to the perfection of our institutions and the wonderful happiness and prosperity. He cries, "Peace, Peace," and there is no peace. He does not defend the Constitution; he connives at its violation. "I do urge whole-heartedly that the colored people of America make of John Brown, the moral crusader, their inspiration and that they devote themselves without stint and without question to the cause of freedom which was but half won when Lee surrendered, and emancipation became a reality."

CASE HANDLED BY THE JUVENILE COURT Wilmington, N. C., May 22—Norris Streeter, 14 year-old race youth, was convicted of manslaughter before Judge Major W. N. Harris, in county juvenile court Thursday night, May 14, and sentenced to serve five years, the sentence to remain inoperative so long as the boy conducts himself properly and does not violate the law. In the meantime he will be paroled in the custody of his counsel, Judge Addison G. Ricaud, and his father. The case was remanded to juvenile court by Superior Court Judge G. C. Lyon after the grand jury returned a true bill. Killed Companion Streeter shot and killed Alex Allen, 15-year-old chum and playmate, at the home of the former, four miles cast of the city, on the evening of April 12, the load of shot entering the stomach. The lad used an ordinary shotgun and after firing on Allen immediately fled into a nearby swamp where he was later found and arrested by Motorcycle Officer Philman, attached to the sheriff's office.

FINLEY WILSON Western Section Out To Take Grand Exalted Ruler's Office From The East; Wilson In The Race. (By Associated Negro Press) Kansas City, Mo., May 21—Theron B. Watkins, of this city, has been entered by a group of friends in Elkton for the position of Grand Exalted Ruler. The election will occur at the annual convention in Richmond, Virginia in August. The Watkins backers have entered their candidate only after a thorough canvass of the county, and in their opinion the "Show Me" candidate has better than a fighting chance. There will be several other candidates, including J. Finck Wilson, of Washington, who is already serving his third term, and is seeking a fourth. There has been, for a number of years, sentiment in the convention favorable to one term and two at most. T. B. Watkins is one of the most substantial business men in the country. He has a large personal following, and has always been progressive in fraternal and business matters. Mr. Watkins is a native of Indiana; is 48 years old and "came up from the bottom," in a business way, so to speak. He is strongly backed by the Midwest Lodge, of this city, and they plan to tell the world that Elkton is honored by having the opportunity to consider such a candidate.

SAYS HE HAS DECLARED WAR ON KLAN IN STATE Williamston, N. C., May 20—Mob rule was given a sharp rebuke by Judge Sinclair of the Martin County Superior Court who heard the Needleman mutilation case, following his sentencing of the defendants to long terms in the penitentiary at the conclusion of the trial here last week, and also paid his compliments to the Ku Klux Klan and press before leaving for his home in Wilmington. It was disclosed that Solicitor Gilliam prosecutor of the case requested Governor McLean to send Judge Sinclair to preside at the trial because the Solicitor had heard that a fellow Judge of the Superior Court who had been mentioned for this service, was a Grand Dragon of the Klan. Judge Sinclair admitted that he had heard the report and said: Says No Room For Klan "There is no room in North City olina for the Klan and, as far as I am able, I intend to stamp it out. I don't care whether there are jurists in high position in the Klan—I don't care what the influence of klansmen is, they can't rule here. There were members of the Klan on the jury that tried the mob, klansmen who were witnesses for the defendants and klansmen among the mob. I know it. "Sometimes ago I was threatened by the Klan in a letter delivered in court. I am not afraid of them; I have declared war on them, in my court. That is what the courts are for." Criticizes The Press "The press of this State makes me sick. Only one paper, so far is I know, had the decency to depounce this barbarous crime. They like to talk about the beautiful spring in their editorial columns, but to take the lead, to condemn mob violence, to call on the people to let the law take its course instead of resorting to mob rule; to educate the people to the purpose of the courts, to lead them to respect the rights of their fellow men—justice, a trial by jury and an abiding faith in that action—well, you don't find more than one or two papers doing that." DR. SCHENCK WILL ADDRESS PUBLIC HEALTH MEETING A public meeting of the Ministerial Alliance of Tidewater will be held at St. John's A. M. E. Church, Bute St. Thursday night, May 28, at 8:30 o'clock.

May 21—County police today were continuing a search for the person or persons who Tuesday night indirectly caused the death of Mrs. Dovie Brown, wife of Loring Brown, a farmer living near Pine Castle, about five miles south from here, when she and her husband rushed to the house after hearing rifle reports and saw Lewis lying dead in a pool of blood with his wife kneeling beside him.

Marshall, then vice president of the United States, and Sydney Catts, then Governor of the State of Florida and Bishop John Hurst of the Florida Diocese of the. A.M. M. E. Church. As we trace the history of this school under the name of Daytona Industrial and Normal Institute we have come to a juncture of much importance. We are now to recognize another and similar body to the one we have been considering. In Jacksonville, Florida, there has been a school conducted under the auspices of the Methodist Episcopal Church on behalf of the same class of people for which the Daytona Normal and Industrial Institute was organized, bearing the name of Cookman Institute. The Board of Managers of the Cookman Institute has learned of the marvellous results which had been achieved by the Daytona Institute under President Bethune. Plans having been proposed and considered, a merger of the two schools was accomplished and the school was named The Daytona-Cookman Collegiate Institute, with Mrs. Bethune as president. It is with great pleasure that the union is harmoniously cooperative in the broadening of plans in behalf of facilities by which to build the interests of the Kingdom of Christ to reach the largest results. The problem of doubling the size and usefulness of the Institute in the next three years is before the Board of Trustees, the friends of the school and the general public. Applicants are now waiting for admission. The only thing which will delay the work will be a lack of funds. There is now an outstanding need of an endowment fund of $1,000,000.

AGE TWO (By Associated Negro Press) In 1923 the attention of the Board of Education for Negroes of the Methodist Episcopal Church was called to the excellent work which Mrs. Bethune and her helpers had done, and the Daytona Industrial Institute and Cookman Institute of Jacksonville, Florida were merged into the Daytona-Cookman Collegeiate Institute and became co-educational with Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune as president The first building on the Institute grounds at Daytona was Faith Hall, erected in 1907.

Weekly band concerts, midway attractions and fireworks will continue to be a feature of the park. The soda fountain and dining room having been improved upon are second to none in Virginia among colored amusement parks. The park is under the exclusive management of J. A. Bailey who has successfully managed this phase of entertainment for a number of years. Manhattan taxis will be at the disposal of the public and will run on a schedule that will assure continuous runs throughout the week, including Sundays. Taxis will leave at the stand on Brambleton avenue and will run on ten minute schedule, stopping at Calvert and Church, Princess Anne Road and Church and 18th Street and Church on Sundays. On week days and nights taxis will leave when there is a load of four or more making the same stops as on Sundays.

LOUIS IRVNG Atlanta, Ga., May 21—Morehouse climbed one step farther towards the Southeasten Conference championship when it overwhelmed A. U. by the one-sided score of 11 to 2. Harvey's aggregation collected 14 hits during the nine innings Henderson toiled while Lockhart, the Tigers' ace, kept A. U.'s nine hits well scattered. Lockhart's support was well nigh perfect, Morehouse's infield working like the proverbial clock. On the other hand the Crimson Hurricane gave Henderson ragged support Hawkins with 3 out of 5, Sykes with 2 out of 4, and Clay with 2 out of 4 were the batting stars of the afternoon. Henderson struck out nine men while Lockhart sent 10 of his opponents back to the bench after taking three healthy swings at the elusive pill. HAMPTON LOSES TO TIGERS IN A TENSE CONTEST By J. L. WHITEHEAD Russell Field, Lawrenceville, Va., May 8—St. Paul duplicated her last year's seat when she triumphed over Hampton 8-2 this afternoon in a game that was a toss up all the way. The baseball classic was replete with brilliancy, tense moments and thrills and all the other features that go to make a diamond fray creditable to the players and entirely satisfactory to officials, grads, undergrads, friends and well-wishers of schools of the St. Paul-Hampton type. All eyes were focused, and all minds were concentrated, on the pitching duel between Captain Wallace and Adams. Adams twirled a deceptive cork center, was cool all the route, and this, together with the great fielding of Lambright and the unmerciful activities of Gunn down at the first sack, enabled him to hold the Tigers in check. Notwithstanding the fact that poor base running, erratic and slow fielding almost proved the undoing of St. Paul, Jimmie Wallace, St Paul's idol mounder, was beyound a reasonable doubt master of the precarious situation, The Tiger captain whiffed twelve of the treacherous Indians. Jefferson, Lee and Hudson gave Wallace splendid support St. Paul scored her runs in the first and eighth frames. First inning: Jefferson took a walk. Lee doubled, scoring Jefferson.

Scientists and other leading professional of chemical knowledge are at a total certain of this new and hailing malady to any specific cause and to name it is out of the question.

People are asked to be as cautious as possible and not to get near those sacrifice sent Lee to third. Walker's sacrifice scored Lee. Quinn batted a fly to Gunn for an easy out. Eighth inning: Smith out at first. Wallace connected for a single. Jefferson reached first on Adams' error and Wallace advanced to third. Lee'singled, scoring Wallace. Artis out at first. Jefferson was put out at second on an attempted steal. Hampton tallied in the third and ninth acts. Adams struck out. Lambright was safe at first as the result of Hudson's failure to hold the former's third strike. Lambright went to third on Hudson's wild throw, and scored on Johnson's double. Gunn and Byrd fanned. In the ninth inning, Vosbough, with two strikes on him, shot a beautiful triple to left field. Quinn and Harris struck out Fortune, who batted for Ansley, sent a high infield fly to Artis who muffed. Vosbough scored. Fortune safe at first, evidently thought his fly was caught, for he leisurely walked off first towards second base. Artis scooped up the ball he missed and threw it to Jefferson who nabbed the unfortunate Fortune less than a foot from the first corner for the final out.

We feel for them and they have our most profound compassion. We shall in the future try to prevent such a castrophe and cataclysm (£4.98 word). The fact was dear readers, that, out of the multitude of subserubers who had on file none of them had paid their subscription, therefore, we ignorimously had to refrain from going to press. We felt rather sceptical at first about our subseribra, not that we heliate that any of them would bamboole us out of anything, but you all know how it is. By seeing this week's and last week's issue does not myth that they have paid up, but one of the fellows that works on the staff happen to find about twenty-eight cents in his pocket and the rest of the gang immediately jumped on him and received him of the table. So that we could be able to go on the table, there is no four more weeks undisturbed. This fellow put up a brilliant fight, but we finally subdued him, and he is all the worse of for his resistance.

It seems that some political faction wishes to have this paper to take part in some publication in the community and they know we could go and put over any thing. They know that we can make or break any individual or group of individuals, and we can make or break any group of individuals, entering to the fancies and whims of no fools, therefore it is our painless duty to reject their proposal with all the money that is behind their machine. We do not call for more money, but we call for more money to get them by book or crook. Get the money that's the idea. The feel of it crossing our palms gives a tickle that no other substance could dare to supply, but as we said, we cannot accept these people's dirty toughness as such as we would like to accept. Now it seems that a certain prominent citizen wants to be elected Collector of Garbage of this fair city and it can only be done by much campaigning and publicity.

The last put ball pushing artist has gained his eternal glory in the category of foot-work and net rushing. Ten years of lamentable stagnation have been brought to a close. There were no mourners outside of Washington and Baltimore. On To Bordentown! On! On! to the high promontory of the six fine courts of Borden town, New Jersey, just an hour's ride from Philadelphia! The date of the 1925 National tournament—August 23rd to 29th—marks a new emphasis in the evolution of the game as reckoned by the American Tennis Association, the only National organization among colored people. To say it has functioned better than they know is to put it mildly. The printed constitution is now available after several years' voting, delaying and "squabbling." No, it is not bulky, it's up to the minute, short and snappy, about nine or ten paragraphs with several high points of elucidation like the following: Article II Sec. 1, of the By-Laws: "The rules governing play in all tournaments of this association shall be those laid down by the highest accredited lawn tennis association in America." I probably flatter the Baltimore lawyer who construed the above when I saw Amen! Here is hoping the A. T. A. will sanction the scientific American driving game of the white players of the United States Lawn Tennis Association as well as ape their committee's dubious interpretation of the amateur rules. As a race we are very prone to imitate all the foibles and none of the virtues of the upper crust. Signs of Awakening Let's hurry and pass on to the new signs of awakening among the darker people who will be crowned international tennis champions in the next silver jubilee just as they have broken world's records in nearly every phase of athletic prowess during the past decade. Bordentown with its green pastures, evenly clipped lawns and dormitories overlocking miles of a winding river offers the ideal setting for this new step up the tennis ladder. in 1925. Most important of all, Bordentown's leaders have caught the vision.

It's a splendid tribute to his leadership and sportsmanship to see the enthusiasm in which both the faculty and student body have started already to make the National the best ever. No less credit it is to be accorded Professor Lester Granger, the Extension secretary and student supervisor of the institution, who has just been reelected president of the New Jersey Tennis Association. Mrs. Granger and several other ladies on the faculty, Mr. Williams, Mr. Jones and a number of the sixteen-year-old boys and girls are all trying to emulate Prog. Granger's terrific service and American drive and their idolization was in no wise minimized when they saw him shoot those scientific strokes out of the reach of the former national champion for two sets on a recent visit to the school. At the Nationals in Bordentown every night will not be a round of "Charlestoning." Mr. Granger, a young man of athletic experience and fine character, will see that proper meals in the well-appointed dining room will be served continuously by experts from an immaculate cuisine during the day, and after the evening meal a complete change in the way of a trip to the "movies" in their own big auditorium is being planned by the Professor, where some of these indolent and indifferent tennis neophytes as well as past champions may view the new reels of the United States Lawn Tennis Association, showing interesting tournament matches and some of Tilden's, Johnston's and Richard's marvelous strokes and their proper execution.

BERNARD YOUNG, Jr. Hampton, Va., May 16—For all-round brilliancy today's with Annual Championship Track and Field Meet, held by Hampton Institute on Armstrong Field, has never been applauded in the history of Negro athletic competition. Nine Intercollegiate Athletic Association records were cached in the four hours of dogged and stubbornly fought competition for track and field supremacy. Out of the future of extreme brilliance and unprecedented action two emerged victorious as team champions and relay win. Hampton won the collegiate championship with fifty points and swept across the line twenty yards ahead of Virginia to become the winner of the first leg on the useful Madame Walker collegiate relay trophy. In the scholastic division Dunbar won a close victory at Bordentown for team championship honors with 32 points. In the relay Bordentown and Dunbar settled the FROM THE PRESS BOX FROM THE PRESS BOX Page Fighting Bob Lawson I have noticed where Kid Norfolk put away some Ray Pelkey out in Sunny California and the release referred to Norfolk as outed light heavyweight champ. of the world.

It may make their loot will have plenty of action, but when two white men are dumped into the same ring together, there is usually just the same nearly everybody believes that both men will their under nibons when the long sounds ending the fight. In the Wills-Weinert case everything is different. All the adage is or should be in favor of the former. Wills is a big living fighter and should experience little difficulty in putting away him. He has experience, weight, reach, stamina, strength, cleverness and a sting. This is not taking anything from Charles Weinert, what he has, but that is not as much as Wills has. Why did he not make Fipro stay put with all those things is hard for me to say. In spite of all that, he handled the big Argentine with ease and never showed the least sign of having any trouble or being not to extend himself. All Start With Equal Chance All Start With Equal Chance The four scrappers, Wills, Weinert, Gibbons and Tunney will sit with equal chances in June. The most decisive winner, that is, one who wins by a knockout will be Dempsey's opponent, if that ever fights again. Tunney has not been considered seriously as heavyweight contender, but if he should tuck Gibbons away and Wills is to dispose of his man handily, Gene will stand head and shoulders to the all heavy aspirants. If he should; but we don't think so, case will be the same with either man. Whoover wins and wins more decisively will be the runner up. scrapers, Wills, Weinart, Gibbons is chances in June. The most decisive as by a knockout will be Dempsey's again. Tunney has not been conside contender, but if he should tuck Gibbons of his man handily, Gene will haveavy aspirants.

This may not have been tching him with Gibbons, who is also the heavyweight race, give him an armoved obstacles placed before him. A bamboozil Wills out of his chance, him from the race. Weinart with Wills gives the Newark best of the contenders. Does he merit just as much as yours truly. As frits a go with the dodging man, say the champion, such意然 when the loser, in time, Will is entitled to a go because of one him as stumbling blocks. Then licked any men worth crowding over, them, and a number of us are lead to responsible. But we must remember when he was at his best. The trick that it took Gibbons to do it. And it seen the same battler since his meeting might right sent. Dempsey kicking without showing any signs of being certain, Wills is in the straits now will be meaning, he has all to lose and very. The latter has nothing to lose and Wills has been considered 'Dempsey's most logical opponent for a while, without ever getting the chance to prove his real merits it seems rather strange why a man like Gene Tunney should be on a level with Harry. This may not have been done intentionally, but by matching him with Gibbons, who is also considered one of the leaders in the heavyweight race, gives him an even break with a who has moved obstacles placed before him. All in all, it just is a case of bambooolin Wills out of his chance, in other words, to oust him from the race. Matching Weinert with Wills gives the Newark Adonis an even rest of the contenders. Does he merit it, does Tunney if? Yes, he rest of the contenders truly. As fas as Gibbons is earned, he merits as go with the dodging champion by virtue of his with him at Shicky. The boxing rules say, the loser is entitled to return match, especially when the loser, in time, proves that he is of such. Will is entitled to a go because of his victories over a placed before him as stumbling blocks. Then again, Tommy does has not licked any men worth crowing over, unless Kid Norwane was one of them, and a number of us are lead to believe that this was questionable. But we must remember that Kid Norwane turned in a better period when he was at his best. The fact that Norwane never bated that he took Gibbons to do it, did it said that Norwane. Firpo's might right sent, Dempsey kicking, but Harry took it same right without showing any signs of being disturbed. Oh such is life. One thing certain, Wills is in the straits now with all the chances him, same meaning, he has all to lose and very little to gain in ling Weinert. The latter has nothing to lose and all to gain.

Tense Moments In Hampton Track Meet 5 1—Roland Richardson of Dunbarn High School, Washington, D. C. who ran to a remarkable record of 9 9-10 seconds in the scholastic 100 yards. Roberts, of Bordentown, foot behind him, got 2nd and Baston, of Dunbarn, extreme right, got 3rd. 2—Collegiate mile run won Robert Cotts, of Hampton Institute, followed closely by William Preston, a teammate. Oliver, of St. Paul got third. Arrow shows P. Bernard Young Jr., who reported the event. 3—Herschel Falkener, of Shaw University, winning a splendid race in collegiate 440 yards in 51 8-10 seconds. He came from behind and outside position on track to beat out Cooke, of Union University, showing just how strong he was. Taylor, of Petersburg, who led for 300 yards, but had to content himself with third place. Falkener was named the Chicago Defender cup. Elmer Baker, of Hampton, winning the 120 yard high hurdles. Rurqs Mainor, also of Hampton, is named the New York boy, is close behind Baker. Mainor was nosed out by Jackson, of Union, for second place.

Striding with ease and absolutely no lost motion, but smoothly and swiftly, Richardson leaped aerosol yards record and repeated in the 220 yard dash by turning in a mark of twenty-two seconds flat. Besides these two records set by Richardson there were four other C. I. A. A. standards to suffer e-faction in the scholastic division and three in the collegiate division. One collegiate mark was equalled and one scholastic mark was set in a new event, the Tidewater Re Edward Hargrove of Hampton threw the javelin for a new record with a heave of 157 feet and 9 inches. Edward Taylor, who is throw last year of 149 feet 9 inches set a record, also passed the old mark when he sent the wooden shaft quivering through the air for a distance of 151 feet 11 inches. The other two records smashed were also in the field division. J. L. Pierce of St. Paul put the sixteen pound shot 77 feet 5 inches to better the old mark of 66 1/4 inches by Johnson of Hampton, and Harris of West Virginia Collegiate Institute vaulted six inches over the form he made in the pole vault at ten feet six inches. Elmer Baker of Hampton also surpassed the old mark by three inches when he won second place in this event. Cooke of Union equalled the 100 yard mark of 10 1/5 seconds. The speed demons of Dunharr were not satisfied with the two fine achievements of Richardson and before the day's activities were over George set a new mark of fifty-two seconds in the scholastic 440 yard dash for which got the national title. Milton set a new half mile mark of 2 minutes 4 9-10 seconds; and Dunharr's relay team composed of George, Burton, Liggins, and Richardson whirled around the oval to a new scholastic record in the mile relay. The time was 3 minutes 31 2-5 seconds. Union high of Hampton was responsible for the last two high school marks. "Billy" Borden pole vaulted to a new record of 9 feet 3 inches and Union's entry of Richardson. Rory did quite for the record of 3 minutes 15 and 2-5 seconds in this event. Such achievements as these and the fact that more schools, more spectators, a finer spirit, and an enlarging of the meet's scope to cover every section of the country, convince those in charge of the meet that this is "just the beginning" of what is to follow. Great Races Plentiful The 440 yard dash, Defender Special, brought forth one of the best races of the afternoon. It was something of an upset, but Herschel Falkenner of Shaw University, ran a heady and courageous race to lead one of the fastest teams on Armstrong Field. Junius Langston, who won the event last year and who holds the present NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE Moments In H Dear High School, Washington, D.C. we won, foot behind him, got 2nd and Institute, followed closely by Will the event. 3—Herschel Falkener, hind and outside position on track to 300 yards, but had to content hims naming the 120 yard high hurdles. 4 Jackson, of Union, for second place. of West Virginia Institute, going 11 Union High's relay team and by Hampton. Left to right: Coach C school pole vault record by going Duck finishing in that order. Dunbar ran to a new record and record of 51 2-5 seconds, failed to place by setting too killing a pace at the outset. At the crack of the gun, Sayles of Virginia Normal spurted into a lead of ten yards and was running well with a pace that, had he been able to maintain it, would have brought him in under fifty seconds. Cooke of Union was in second position and Langston was usually setting his own pace and leading, Langston became desperate and ran himself out in the first two or three hundred yards attempting to overtake the leaders. Rounding the last turn he evidently was out of the race, while a new face was coming from behind to challenge the leaders, Sayles and Cooke. This new face was that of a man in which passed everybody to thunder down the final yards a winner. Cooke beat the weakening Sayles out for second place. Mile and Half Mile Thrilling Running with the same consumate skill that marked his double victory last year, Captain Robert Cole jr., of the Hampton team won a double victory again today. His victory in the mile especially was sufficient tribute to his truck judgment and ability. Gun control was a pal shot into lead. Coles, Preston and Merritt, Hampton's three mile entries were holding back to about eleventh, and twelfth places in a field of fifteen runners. Rhye of Vanormal was holding second position. During the running of the second lap Coles and Preston speeded up and at the end of second step Coles and Preston drove Brooks, Union, and d Preston and Coles of Hampton. An air of expectancy fell over the field. A fierce struggle for victory was forecasted. Rhye made a bid to regain his position among the leaders and passed Coles on the backstretch during the running of the third lap, but inevitably, it seemed, Coles drew up to and away from him. At the completion of the third quarter just a few yards separated Coles from, and the run in that order. The signal to the runners that the final lap was at hand brought forth an early sprint from Oliver. Here was to be a battle. Oliver was running a fine pace and Coles he had two opponents with few neers. On the backstretch Preston challenged Oliver for his lead with Coles pounding just a few inches behind. Preston took the lead. Doggelly Oliver fought for his race. He pulled up on even terms with Preston at the beginning of the last turn. Preston, however, drew away from Oliver just as Coles spurted and passed them both. Oliver had given his best but his best was not enough to finish better than third. Preston better awards behind Coles for second place. He withdrew from the half mile and two mile to save himself for a fine race, as it proved later, as an anchor man on the winning relay team. Moore Wins Good Half Mile Hampton's two half-milers finished one, two in the 890 yard dash. Moore tolk the lead at the start with Anderson in second po- who ran to a remarkable record of 14.5 miles in Easton, of Dunbar, extreme right, to Jam Preston, a teammate.

The real thrill of the race, and the action that made it one of the best of the day, was the, bitter contest between Moore and Lightfoot of Union. Two hundred yards from the finish Lightfoot pulled away from the pack and challenged Moore for his lead. He apparently had a good reserve, but Moore accepted his challenge and ran Lightfoot into the ground—at least out of the race, for thirty yards from the tape. He then ran to finish. Anderson out-tran Pearson of West Va., for second place. Moore's time was 5 minutes 4 3-5 seconds. Coles Cops Two-Mile Run Coles won the two mile race with a good lead over his teammate, Murray. Both finished with great success. Thompson of Union took third. Relays Offer Abundant Action The scholastic relay was the first relay to be run off. Three teams competed for the race. After the first lap Hillside Park High of Durham, N. C., was out of the race, so the real fight lay between Dunbar and Bordentown. George gave Burton a five yard lead over Tillman. The final lap was run by Richardson for Dunbar and Roberts for Bordentown. N. Richardson increased the lead, five yards, and finished ten yards ahead of Roberts. Bordentown; however, would not accept defeat easily, a fact which accounts no doubt for the new inter-scholastic mile relay record hung up by Dunbar. Hampton Wins Walker Cup Union University, Hampton Clifton University, West Virginia St. Paul, and Va. Normal competed for the Madame Walker and Hampton trophies and the gold medals given to the winning relay team. Five teams finished, Union being forced out when Booker fell exhausted during the first lap. Langston of Hampton came from band and gave five yards five yards. The in turn ran a fine race and gave Cresay a ten yard advantage. Creasy, following Langston's and Thatcher's example, doubled the advantage given him and handed Preston a twenty yard lead over Sample, who ran anchor for St. Paul. Drain, running anchor for West Virginia ran a fine race to overtake Sample and win second place for his team. Preston turned in one of the best races of the day in running the final quarter of the Hampton. To shortest man, to run the relay, he nevertheless thrilled to the greatest magnificent striding. Hampton's time was 3 minutes 35, and 2.5 seconds. Union High won the special Tidewater relay, open only to high schools in the Tidewater section of Virginia, after Booth overtook a Nercom High school runner during the second lap and gave his team a lead that was never overtaken. Many Other Fine Performances. There were too many performances that were extremely good to ing the old record. Elmer Baker won the high hurdles while Francis won the high jump at five feet eleven inches. The following colleges participated: Hampton, Chaffin, West Virginia, Va. Normal, St. Paul, Va. Seminary and Collage, Union University and Tuskegee. All but one scored at least three points. The following high schools participated: Bordentown of New Jersey, Dunbar of Washington, Huntington, of New York, Union of Hampton, Hillside of Durham, Vourhees of Denmark, S.C. Nansensem of Suffolk, Va. Tidewater Institute of Chesapeake, Va., Norcom of Portsmouth. Four of these high schools got in the scoring columns. It was the best teams that won today amid the action and color. Never have so many athletes and schools been represented and never has a finer spirit of sportsmanship been shown than today. Losers lost without a grumble and winners won with modesty and joy. Winners and losers and many additional schools besides are expected back next year for the fifth annual meet. Today's meet, however, was wonderful and those in charge and those who officiated deserve great credit. Summary Charles W. of Internal Re- of New York named defen- Mrs. Effem Z.

Allen, But Is Confined To Rooms In Hotel. Hon. L. B. Bristol, mayor of Statesville, N. C., arrived in this city Sunday to deliver an address at the closing services of the first anniversary of Rev. O. J. Allen, D. D. as pastor of First Calvary Baptist Church, but after being met at the train by Rev. Allen and Mr. Holloman, deacon of First Calvary and visiting the home of the pastor, he was stricken with illness while at his rooms in the Monticello Hotel and was unable to deliver his prepared address. The Mayor was confined to the hotel throut Sunday, being unable to leave for his home before Monday night. Mr. Bristol formed an intimate acquaintance with Rev. Allen, while the minister was pastor in Statesville. The first anniversary of the pastorate of Dr. O. J. Allen of First Calvary Baptist Church came to a close Monday, night, May 19, with a grand anniversary reception. The services from beginning to end were inspiring and elevating. The ministers and congregation who were invited came and rendered excellent service. Each one did his best to raise the standard higher. The sermons preached by Revs. J. C. Diamond, C. M. Long, H. N. Johnson, A. Hobbs, R. H. Bowling, J. H. Billups, C. P. Madison, N. B. Brown, and F. W. Williams will ever live in the memory of First Calvary. Dr. F. W. Williams led all the churches in the financial contribution. Dr. J. W. Crooms Preaches On the second Sunday, Dr. J. W. Crooms, of Statesville, N. C., delivered two stirring messages. He was accompanied by two of his members, Mr. A. Williams and Wm. Turner. Last Sunday at 11 a. m., the anniversary sermon was preached by Dr. J. C. Austin of Pittsburg, Pa. who chose as a text 1 Sam. 9:6, "Behold now, there is in this city a man of God," theme: A Man of God in This City. The sermon was well prepared and delivered with power. Miss E. M. Collins read the anniversary paper, subject, "The Triumph of the Man Who Acts." Madam Luia B. Hurst, of Kansas City, Mo., sang an appropriate solo, also Madame Lula Howlett and Madame Josephine Wimberly rendered beautiful selections. At 3 p. m., the auditorium was again filled to listen to an address from, Mayor L. B. Bristol, of Stateville, who was detained at his hotel by illness. He was loud in his praise of the pastor's work in North Carolina and sent his written address to be read before the congregation. Dr. Austin Eloquent Dr. J. C. Austin took the subject upon which the mayor was to speak—"Good Citizenship" and thrilled the audience with his talk. The Southland Singers rendered several selections. At 7:30 p. m., the church was filled to its capacity, the ushers arrayed in full dress suits carried chairs from the lecture room and did all they could to accommodate the vast crowd while scores were turned away. Miss Jeanette Batts delivered the anniversary oration with distinctiveness and much ease. She sat down amidst great applause and comment. Miss Minnie Faison sang sweetly. Dr. Austin delivered the closing sermon which was pointed in truth, masterly in delivery and pregnant with gospel power. The subject was, "Why Worry?" Anniversary Reception The anniversary reception was grand. Atty D. H. Edwards presided interspersing the program with wit and humor. The pastor and his family were the happy recipients of many gifts and tokens of appreciation from all the auxiliaries of the church. The large mass of humanity marched to the Sunday school room where, the tables were grooming under the burden of delicious food prepared by the Refreshment Committee. The Sunday School orchestra rendered enchanting music while each one partook of the palatable food. The pastor and his family have been elated during the anniversary. He is loud in his praise to all the officers, auxiliaries and members and especially to those who took part on the program in making this his first anniversary the best. Thus closed the 22nd year of Dr. Allen as a minister and the 1st as pastor of First Calvary. Scores Church Tight-Wads At the morning service Sunday, the large congregation listened to a sermon that was outstanding because of declarations made concerning the attitude many people inside of the church take in the raising of money necessary for its support. Rev Long's subject was, "An Ideal Church Rally," text: 1st Chronicles, 29.9. The pastor handled the luke-warm and the unconcerned in the giving toward church support with gloves off. "They are the ones who are the first to cry out when the church mortgage has been burned, 'My church is free from debt. Our church hasn't a single penny of indebtedness on it, and I am proud of our church,'" said the speaker. "The world is not supposed to save the church, but it is the duty of NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE the church to save the world; and if ever money was needed, it is needed every hour and every day for this gigantic task," said Rev. Long. He scored parents for sending children with a penny to put in Sunday School when they gave them dollars and dimes for every other amusement during the week, and declared that in so dong, they were making five cent Christians of them. "Some people hold a dollar so tight that the Almighty can't get a chance to give them interest on it, snapped the speaker, coupling it with the declaration that "people who will not contribute to the support of the church of which they are members should not be allowed to enjoy its benefits and privileges."

The pastor delivered an eloquent sermon at 11:30 from Rev. 1:9-10. B. Y. P. U. rendered a fine program at 5:30 p.m. at night Dr. Hurdle, pastor of Bethany Baptist Church, of Newark, N. J., preached an able sermon here. There were three additions to the church during the day. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH Rev. B. P. Ryles led the sunrise prayer meeting which was greatly enjoyed. At the hour for preaching Rev. R. H. Bowling presented Dr. Willie Moses, Field representative of the National Baptist Convention, who arose in his own characteristic way, and announced for his text, Luke 19:28-30, subject "Mobilizing for Kingdom Extension." This sermon was well illustrated, and filled with information and practical suggestions. His two sons were introduced to the large audience. Holy Communion was administered at 3:30 p.m. at which time many assembled and participated in this most solemn service. At night Rev. Mr. E. T. O'Brien, of Lynchburg, was present and de livered a very fine sermon from Luke 15:18, subject, "The Prodical Son." This was enjoyed by the hearers. The Sunday School and B. V. P. U. were largely attended and their respective services were inspiring. The Sunday School Orchestra is rendering fine service which is highly appreciated by both officers and members. METROPOLITAN A. M. E. ZION CHURCH The pastor preached a strong sermon at the morning service Sunday on subject, "The Wages of Sin is Death, and the Gift of God is Eternal Life." The Sunday school enjoyed the presence of Mr. Edney, of Edenton, N. C., who gave some interesting remarks on the lesson. MT. OLIVE CHURCH OF CHRIST Services Sunday were marked with much spiritual fervor. Following the close of Sunday school Rev. A. Jones preached an eloquent sermon at 3 o'clock from Acts 9, subject, "The Persecuted Church." He again preached at nght. One new name was added to the church roll during the day. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH BERKLEY AVE. Sunday marked the close of a great revival at the First Baptist Church, Berkley Ave. The meetings were conducted by Dr. J. D. Herben of Philadelphia, a well known evangelist assisted by Rev. Isaac C. Reddie, a noted gospel singer, and have been in progress of the last two weeks. There have been 39 conversions and eight persons reclaimed or restored. Twenty-four were baptized by the pastor, Rev J. C. Diamond, at the close of the mormn service with others yet to receive the rite. The sermon on "Christian Baptism" preached by Dr. Herben at this time, will live long in the hearts of the people, it being easily the most logical and forceful discussion of that subject heard here in recent years. The large audience which filled the auditorium to its capacity was much moved by his telling arguments and as Rev. Reddie, at the close of the sermon fervently sang "Will the Circle be Unbroken" the scene was indescribable. At the night service Dr. Herben delivered another powerful discourse from the subject "The Sabbath Versus the Lord's' Day. At this service the hand of fellowship was given to 19 persons making a total of 32 received into the church during the meetings. The collection for the day was $172.95.

THE METROPOLITAN BANK SHOWS BEST GAIN IN ITS HISTORY Continued Prosperity Of Norfolk Colored People Evidenced. By Marked Growth Of This Institution. STOCKHOLDERS WARMLY PRAISE BANK OFFICERS The gradual but steady gain in prosperity among the colored people of Norfolk and their ability in the past few years to readjust themselves to the return of normal economic conditions following the period of hectic inflation during the World War is strongly evidenced in the fiscal year's report of the treasurer of the Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company, read at the sixteenth annual stockholders meeting held in the bank building Thursday afternoon, May 19. The report, which was one of the best the officers of the bank have ever submitted to the stockholders, showed an enrollment of 20,000 depositors in all departments, with aggregate deposits of nearly $700,000. The bank has more than $80,000.00 in cash on hand, which is almost three times the amount required by the State Banking Department as a legal cash reserve. All in all the report showed that in 1924 the bank made the greatest gains during its history, being equally as active as it was during much of the war time period. Enthusiastic Meeting The moting at which this report was read was an enthusiastic one, the stockholders joining in warm praise of the officers and directors for their splendid conduct of the institution as revealed by its growth and substantial solvency. Unanimous adoption of the annual statement followed. President W. M. Rich made brief remarks in which he outlined the history of the institution in the past 16 years. He stated that it had been no easy task in bringing the bank from a $10,000 enterprise to one of nearly a $1,000,000. The aims and objects of the bank which have been stated and emphasized numerous times were graphically restated by Mr. Rich in his address. To instill thrift in the colored people of Tidewater, to encourage them to save their earnings and to assist them in home owning, business expansion, etc., were among the things the president said the institution aimed to do. To carry out these objects every facility and resource of the bank, the experience and training of its officials are made available to the public, he said. Mr. Rich made it plain that he, with his associate officers of the bank, believed that home ownership is a basic requirement of every element of the nation's citizenship, and that they would continue in the future as in the past to stress the importance of this requirement to the people of this EXCURSION EVERY SUNDAY PETERSBURG RICHMOND ROUND— $2.00 —TRIP Via N & NRY.W No Change of Cars Quickest Route ONLY ALL RAIL LINE DOUBLE TRACK 8:45 A.

He stated that he believed the growth of the bank had been the means of affording the colored people of Norfolk financial rating and credit facilities they otherwise never would have enjoyed, and made a strong plea that the people should give their moral and financial backing to the institution in order that it might be of greater assistance in the future. Stockholders Speak Stockholders Open Several of the stockholders made stirring speeches and praised the service the Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company is rendering in this community. It was the consensus of opinion of those present that the splendid report of the treasurer reflected the wide-spread and strong confidence the institution enjoys among the people it aims to serve. The continued gain in depositors was taken as indicating how the bank is steadily increasing in popularity, and how it is reaching out and touching the lives of new people almost daily. The marked showing of increased solidarity each year is believed by the officers and stockholders to account for this public confidence. Following the stockholders meeting the board of directors met and reelected the following officers: W. M. Rich, president; A. J. Strong, vice president-treasurer; J. C. Brooks, vice president-secretary; F. W. Williams, vice president; C. G. Owings, assistant secretary-treasurer.

This great woman has most assured been destined to leave her indelible stamp on the Race she will win. The true personalisation of beauty betterment, she opens wide the pathway to fame and fortune to thousands of women and girls who avail themselves of this life-time opportunity. A Brief Sketch of Madame Hightower's Meteoric Rise A few years ago Madame Mamie Hightower was a mere nobody. Unhonored and unsuising she struggled valiantly to carve her niche in the hall of fame. From an inauspicious beginning she has traveled step by step to the highest rung in the ladder of success. A beauty parlor on Bealle Street was her first business venture and to use Madame Mamie Hightower's own words: It was a madame Mamie had an old daughter. Madame Mamie had an vision. She had ambition and she did not fear work. Gradually her clientele grew and came to include the foremost families of Memphis. Surrounding herself with a staff of expert chemists she began to expand her business in a small way and realizing the tremendous benefits that she was conferring on her limited patronage she conceived the idea of nationalizing her work by marketing her products over her label. Success came by leaps and bounds. Success came by exceeding her fondest dreams, was a reality. But that did not mean "quit" for this wondrous woman. On and on she laborers, ever faithful to the trust of thousands who have implicit confidence in her judgment and undying faith in her products. The Tremendous Popularity and Growth of the Golden Brown Toilet Preparations Almost from the very first time they were put upon the market the famous Golden Brown Toilet Preparations had a steady and consistent sale. Rumors of the fame of the Golden Brown began her into the North, East and West and already thousands in these localities were clamoring for her preparations. In the beginning the Golden Brown line included a Cold Cream, Vanishing Cream, Hair Dressing, Face Powder and Talum but all the time this tireless soul was working to confer newer and greater Columbia, N.

NEW BERN ODD FELLOWS OUT 370 Men and Women March in Procession To Clinton Chapel New Bern, N. C.-The G. U. O. of O. F. and Household of Ruth marched in a procession of 370 to the church of St. John the Baptist Church, where their annual thanksgiving sermon was delivered by Rev. H. L. Holt, Sunday, May 10. Rev.

And thus goes her story. Most interesting to every man, woman and child of the Race. Truly may her illustrious career be incentive to all ambitious daughters and sons of our Group who aspire to greater heights. Where, Oh, Where Is Miss Golden Brown? That is the question that is puzzling thousands of people from Maine to California. Will she come from the West, from the South, from the North, from the East? Will she be a dashing young debauchee or a sedate married woman? Will she be a decorative housewife? Nobody can answer these questions because nobody knows. The golden apple will fall where it rightfully belongs and though perhaps unknown today the woman or girl chosen as "Miss Golden Brown" will become internationally famous overnight. This paper unesthetically urges its thousands of readers to reconsider the rules of this contest because it realizes the true magnitude of such an undertaking. As stated before this contest is nationwide in scope and the winner may be some little unknown "Cinderella" from some obscure hamlet as well as some proclaimed metro-politan beauty. "Where, oh, where," the question asked in the homes, the cafes, the theaters, the cabarres, in fact where ever our group congratulates. A Galaxy of Prizes for the Nation's Leading Beauties The intrinsic value of the prizes offered should stimulate a ready and rapid response to this great search for unimpeachable pulchritude. Besides the Grand Prize which will be awarded to the one chosen as "Miss Golden Brown" and who will receive the prize at Atlanta City with all expenses paid, a brand new Hudson Super-Six Coach, four other lovely beauties will also enjoy a trip to this world-famed seashore playground and receive elaborate gifts. In addition to this the individual winners in each state will receive a prize offering from Madame Manhie Hightower herself. The vote plan is being used in determining the selection of the winners and it will be particularly interesting to watch the standing of the contestants which will be published from time to time. Five judges will award the final prize, and the most beautiful authorities in the country which will instantly preclude the possibility of any erroneous judgment.

Wilmington, N. C., May 22—Is that the strongest evidence you have Mr. District Attorney," "Yes, your honor." "Enter up a verdict of not guilty, Mr. Clew." The foregoing meant liberty and happiness to John and Splvester Belhamy, Brunswick county race men, who were on trial in district Federal court for a few brief moments on May 12, before Judge Isaac Meekings on a charge of having violated the national prohibition law. The two brothers without legal advice, moneyless and unaccompanied by friends, unacquainted with court procedure, were brought into the court room from jail late in the afternoon. They didn't know how to plead but wanted how to prove that they were to prove our daily occupation" as one of the young men put it. Judge Meekin's directed that they be allowed to plead not guilty, and directed the district attorney to proceed with his evidence. Three minutes after the government's first witness had taken the stand the court called a halt and asked the district attorney if that was all the evidence he had. Mr. Meekin's affirmative reply prompted the district attorney to have men were free without apparently ever knowing what it was all about. From the little evidence introduced it was apparent that government agents had found parts of the booby boat home and back of the Belmar home and warrants were immediately drawn against the two boys.

Hampton, Va., May 20—The reunion of the Hampton Institute Alumni Association will be held at Clarke Hall on June 2 and 3. This biennial reunion, in many ways, will be the most interesting meeting of the Association since its organization. Recent developments call for a reorganization of the Association upon a broader basis. The co-operation of the Tuskegee and Hampton Alumni Associations in the endowment drive has brought to light many things which make imperative more comprehessive programs and a closer unification of the large number of graduates and former students who have gone out from Hampton. The endowment campaign has also shown that an increasing number of our people are manifesting a vital interest in the maintenance and perpetuation of these two institutions. To Discuss Various Questions Time will be given for the thoughtful discussion of the various questions which naturally will arise. This has not been done heretofore. Husty and careless action will no longer suffice. There must be a strong reorganization that will function properly. The alumni eliters for representation, and they have a member on the Hampton board of trustees; but representation as a method is impossible without organization. Without the combined influence of the Alumni Association of Hampton Institute, reinforced by its financial contributions, its local chapters, its cohesive and fruitful thinking, the expression of its ideas through the "Hampton Institute Journal," all of our representation will lack the significance and backing so necessary to make it effective. Effort will be made to combine all of the factors in our program into a more efficient machine. Full reports of the work of the Association will be read by the officers and time allowed for discussion of these reports. Dr. Gregg To Speak Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, whose challenging leadership, alert insight and wide outlook are evident, will tell of the new developments of Hampton Institute under his administration. An address to C. Colon Lassiter, of Raleigh N. C., who is a candidate for the degree of bachelor of science in the teachers college and has served this year as president of the Hampton Institute Institute Council, will give an idea of the institution to the students' viewpoint. Hampton men and women will be given an opportunity to meet the students before the school closes; witness the commencement exercises; hear the wonderful music of the glee clubs, the choir, the choral chorus of the 800教室; and see one of the student plays.

Causes Unrest special to the Journal and Guide.—Washington D. C. May 15—The Alumni of Howard University are alarmed over the persistence and widespread rumor that President Dwain is to recommend that the Trustee Board at its June meeting the creation of the office of vice president at a large salary, larger than that of any of the veteran servants who have given to the school its high standing among the universities of the land, large numbers of the alumni are to believe that the trustees will be led into any such extravagance, for they see that Dr. Durke hasn't sufficient work here to him busy, having time to hold the presidency of the Curry School of Expression in Boston where no student is admitted, and to hold the difficult effort of raising an endowment for this undemocratization institution. They cannot see why Howard shall be called to be furnish another high salaried officer to do the work of Dr. Durke so as to give him leisure to hold his other presidency far removed from our race, and to make frequent fees for substituting in the various white pulpits of this city for all denominations. So the Alumni objects to the creation of this wholly new office on the ground that there is no need for it. Believed Waste of Funds Second, it objects because it means the wastage of the university's meagre funds. With a large number of self-supporting students in aid of aid—funds to help them in heric struggle upward in the world, and the professional staff giving their valuable service critically low wage, it seems inevitable that the trustee board will ignore the real needs of the university and divert its resources to already disproportionate rates of the president's office. We go further and hold that if trustees do decide to create this office, the appointee should not be of the trustees. His work would be constantly hampered by requests that he helped to make his own sinceure, and used to position of trust to further his pecuniary interests. The genius whose name is reported to settled upon has spent his entire life outside of educational circles and is not even a college grad. Alumni Distinctly Opposed The alumni has no candidate, but it is distinctly opposed to such travel suggestion; but if it must come we want an educator and an administrator, one who has an increased higher education sufficiently high to have acquired it for himself, and one who has chosen education as his life's work. We hold that our university should not be used to give sinecures to aged men who have passed their period of usefulness in other fields. There are many men and women in all departments of the university who would dignify such an office and be able to render the university some service by virtue of their long experience in educational pursuits. We see the greatest of our alumni, Kelly Miller, whose scholastic achievements and lofty station in the world of education and letters have done most to give toward her fair name throughout the nation. We see Dr. Sterling Brown, of the theological department, a scholar of fine diplomacy who could do much to relieve the immensely strained relations between the president on one side and the alumni, faculty and student body on the other, so detrimental to the university; a gentleman whose wide contacts with anthrophy could be used to great profit. If a younger man is preferred, why not Prof. Charles Dewley with his large influence over young people and his standing among educators and scholars? We could go on indefinitely naming the splendid material at the school, whom such a reward for faithfulness should come, if the trustees are determined to give the university this office which we hold should not be created. President Away When the strike of the student body occurred this week, the president was not here to confer with the students and offer them new terms, for he was off on one of his frequent trips to Boston at the white school administering to its needs. His autocratic rule that he hid down to them before he left the student action inevitable. His army training school which loves Negroes training to fit them for privates, without drill in military leadership, artillery, or aation, takes precedence over the sciences and classics, the higher and finer learning which is the soul of a university. It is the hope of all disinterested elements of the alumni that the students will not be mislead by our neglect, autocratic president into giving us additional grievances which must in the nature of things take for the further injury to our mater.

I perceived that the women of other races were provided with cosmetics made especially for them. Many centuries ago our race knew the secrets of beauty culture—history sings the praises of Africa's beautiful women; it is even said that Cleopatra, the beauty of all beauties, was of our race—but through the vicissitudes of fortune racial pride was lost, possibly when our forebears were dragged away captives. I believed, and now I know I am right, that the Golden Brown chemists could discover formulas that would do for us what ordinary preparations failed to do. My Golden Brown Beauty Preparations have now been used for ten years and today our racial pride is awake. Look about you and see the difference! See the beautiful girls, the stunning women when next you go to a public gathering! See them on the stage, in offices, in stores, in their homes!

Grown-up members of the church and young people who attend Sunday school and the "Y" activities give the police very little trouble. Too bad we have such a large number who spend their days "runnin' wild" until they get into the hands of the police. A young Polish immigrant came to New York City twenty years ago and got busy. He could not speak the English language but he soon mastered it. He kept on hustling and succeeding. His name is Benjamin Winter, which does not sound very foreign. The other day Mr. Winter bought the old Astor home of fame and fashion on Fifth avenue for more than $2,000,000. He bought the property for speculative purposes. He is a successful real estate man, one of the most successful in New York City. Between 1919 and 1923, it is estimated, he bought and sold nearly $500,000,000 worth of Manhattan residential property. Yes; America is the land of opportunity. Most people do not so consider it and waste their time bewailing their lot and neglecting their opportunity. Be not you so unwise. Another One Breaks Through There is no let up in the urge of our group to "rise, shine," and be counted in the higher as well as the lower things of life. It indicates as nothing else could that we are also human, which many who consider themselves the last word deny. We will not allow them to make good their contention by constantly appearing at the accepted time in places where we were not expected because we have done things that only the highest type of humans can do. John P. Davis of Washington, a member of our group, of Bates College, has been chosen to represent Bates College on the International Debating tour. He will be one of four and the first of his group to achieve the distinction. The four will represent the American University Union, Bates College being chosen to represent the United States this year. The four left the United States May 10, and will debate with some of the most famous college groups in Great Britain. Beginning at the Paul Laurence Dunbar High School in Washington, young Davis has had a wonderful scholastic record at Bates, where he has earned the choicest of the college honors. Suggestions To The American Federation of Labor The National Urban League, an organization that has conducted an extensive study of the relation of Negro labor to American Industry, is endeavoring thru its Director of Industrial Relations, T. Arnold Hill, to persuade the American Federation of Labor to adopt a workable and democratic program conducive to the mutual interest of both white and colored laborers. Mr. Hill was recently in Washington, where he addressed the Executive Council of the Federation and pointedly told its members that whatever injures the black workmen also injures the white workmen and vice versa. Just what alteration, if any, the American Federation of Labor will make in its policy toward colored industrial workers as a result of Mr. Hill's strong talk is a matter of conjecture, but that organization might as well be advised that radical labor elements are making strong bids for comradeship of the workmen of color and is successfully recruiting considerable numbers under its Communists program. Conservative unionism is treading on precarious grounds when it fails to enlist in its folds the ever increasing army of Negro industrial workers on terms of equality of opportunity, responsibility and benefits, and leaves this large group on the outside to be tempted by the enticements of radical unionism. Should those representatives of Communism and I. W. W.-ism succeed in their proselytizing campaign among the colored men of industry, the American Federation of Labor will find itself confronted with issues outside of its fight against the oppression of capital. Editorial Page of The Hero of a Mississippi River Boat Disaster Heroism is a common heritage. No race can claim a monoply of it. It will appear wherever there is demand for it, and it does not care a rap about race and color. It is just heroism, unusual service in a time of great peril or disaster, without any color or prejudice against the victims it seeks to serve, moved mostly by spontaneous impulse. It is very good that it is that way. It keeps the offensive bump of race egotism from exalting itself too much. The latest instance of heroism comes from the Mississippi river, where water tragédies are very common and numerous, because the Mississippi is a great big treacherous giant, exacting a large toll in human life and property for the splendid service it renders in transportation and irrigation. But it exacts an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. The delegates to the Mid-South Association of Engineers, in session at Memphis were taking an outing on the Government Steamer Norman, some sixty people, when at one of the worst points on the river the steamer capsized with little warning, and the human cargo was catapulted into the water, the swift currents of which are fierce. Thomas Lee, a "Negro," happened to be near, in his motor boat. Without hesitating he rushed to the work of rescue and carried to safety many of the sixty people, twenty-three of whom were drowned. The newspapers have given credit to Lee but when he was approached he said he had done no more than some one else in his place would have done. Heroism, any sort of greatness, is always modest. Those he saved from death do not think about it as Lee does. They think he rendered an incomparable service. So do we. Heroism in man is a common inheritance. We have our share of it, and we shall continue to have it. North Carolina Law Scores The law machinery of North Carolina achieved a notable victory and gained immensely in public esteem thru its speedy and direct disposition of the Needleman mob case. No legal hair-splitting was tolerated in connection with the trial of the defendants, and most of them realizing that justice was in hot pursuit, penitently threw themselves upon the mercy of the court. No gush of sentimental mercy flowed from the bench, each defendant according to his proved responsibility, was given a heavy sentence. Even though it is realized that justice in North Carolina is not always quite as vigorous in pursuit of culprits as it was in this particular case, often running up against the color issue and making only a meaningless gesture to proceed to the limit, it deserves the commendation of the public in every case wherein it thrusts a stab into mob law. Regardless of the color or race of those involved, every blow that legally constituted authority administers to this enemy of society redounds to the benefit of all the people. Incidentally, Judge Sinclair, the trial judge, brings a serious indictment against the press of his State when he says, "They like to talk about the beautiful spring in their editorial columns, but to take the lead, to condemn mob violence, to call on the people to let the law take its course instead of resorting to mob rule; to educate the people to the purpose of the courts, to lead them to respect the rights of their fellowmen—justice, a trial by jury and an abiding faith in that action—well, you don't find more than one or two papers doing that." No doubt a closer scrutiny of the influential and respected newspapers of North Carolina will show they are outspoken in their denunciation of mob rule, but it must be admitted that a concentrated and systematic attack by both press and pulpit on this American pastime would put Judge Lynch to rout. The Arab Tribesmen in Revolt The readers of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE are bound to be interested in all of the tribal movements in Africa and parts of Asia because those movements affect them in one way and another. The unrest in Africa as the result of European invasion and absorption of the lands, liberty and labor of the Natives, reacts upon African people wherever they are in the influence which is operating generally to narrow if not deny them entirely any part in their social, civil and economic values. This influence, we find, is actively at work in all white countries with black subjects and citizens, and it must be met at every step with the relentless purpose to overcome it. To do otherwise means social, civil and economic death for those who do not. Register one or more protests against every wrong, every injury, is the way to keep alive the jewel of personal rights and civil privileges and immunities, as in the United States. The Arabs of Africa and Asia do not consider themselves to be Negroes, but like the Abyssinians claim to be something else. Anyhow, they have black skins and crisp hair and that goes a long way towards identifying them as Negroid in origin if not in their arrested developments, as they have got so far and go no further, like the Chinese, in their growth.

For some time past the Spaniards have been warring with the Riff tribesmen; who have driven them out to all intents and purposes. Now the Riffs have turned their guns on the French in their Morocco zone and war is raging on a 200-mile front, with the Riffmen holding their own. Abd-el-Krim, their leader, who has called the Mohammedans to a Holy War, which is a dangerous move for the European Powers concerned in Africa and Asia, Abd-el-Krim aims to drive both the Spanish and French forces out of Morocco and Northern Africa and to establish a Riff government of his own. So far in dealing with the Spaniards he has shown great generalship and diplomacy. The French are a different proposition. It is said that the French Native Arabs are loyal and that the French are sending large re-enforcements of Senegalese as shock troops to Morocco. The white races are spilling themselves all over the earth, in the effort to get more profits out of trade, to get more of the lands and labor of other people than belongs to them, and if they are not resisted effectively, the black and brown races of Africa and Asia will be wiped out as the American Indians have been. Spirit of the Press Religionists, Not Christians From the Kansas, City Call. One reason given by the Methodist Episcopal Church South why that branch of Methodism should not unite with the Methodist Church North, is, that Negro bishops would be forced upon them. Yet the history of the Christian church is enriched with the contributions of Negroes in high places. The Roman Catholics had their black Pope, in fact the early church had its principal seat in Northern Africa where black prelates were the high dignitaries. But now, sixty years after slavery, Southern Methodists fear their own relations with God will be injured if a Negro stands in a high place in His church. Evidently the commandment that was like unto the greatest commandment, the injunction to "love thy neighbor as thyself," is not much valued in the Methodist Episcopal Church South. Or, do these religionists, it would be inaccurate to call them Christjans—hold that they do love us as their brother, providing we keep our place? Color-Blind "Justice" From the Daily Worker. Yesterday morning the State of Illinois snuffed out the life of one Lawrence Washington, colored, for the killing of a confectioner in Evanston, last September. Washington was not able to hire brilliant lawyers to impress the jury with tears and the snapping of suspenders or high priced alienists to prove that his pineal gland was not in good working condition. In this extremity he threw himself on the mercy of the court. But the court had no mercy for a poor colored man and Washington's neck was broken yesterday morning on the gallows in Cook county jail. Governor Small did not grant the doomed man a reprieve, though the governor is quite bandy with the pen when condemned murderers have powerful friends on the outside of the death cells. There is one kind of justice for a poor black man and another for a white man, particularly if the white man is blessed with a goodly share of this world's wealth, whether he inherited that wealth from his parents or secured it by robbery with or without a gun. Money talks and the life of a black man is held cheaper under our Christian capitalist government, than the life of a white man, even though our hypocritical preachers tell us that their god is the father of all men and women, black, white and yellow. Somebody Was Drowning "One touch of His divine hand makes all human beings alike." The above quotation seems appropriate in describing the actions of Tom Lee, a Negro, who rescued over thirty people from the Mississippi river at a time when lives were in great peril caused by the sinking of a pleasure boat on which they, a few minutes before, were enjoying a pleasure outing. Lee is quoted as saying, "I never thought about whether those people who were drowning-were white or black, all I was trying to do was to save all the lives I could, somebody was drowning." The same thing, no doubt, might be said of those whom he rescued. They didn't care whether it was a black hand or white hand that rescued them; all that mattered was being saved from what they believed to be sure death. And this is where the touch of His divine hand comes in. Just think of it! in the South, down below Memphis, white men, women and children, clinging to the neck of a Negro and forgetting that he was black or white! We are told, also, that the question of social equality was not raised at all. Everybody was just a human being after all.

You have made a very searching and practical analysis of this important and vexing problem of furnishing suitable employment for our graduates. Undoubtedly you are right in ascribing the cause of this condition to indifferent and insufficient support of racial enterprises. The way is thus pointed to the solution of the problem. An opening for every graduate can be provided if our business enterprises receive the support they deserve. May I not add that every boy and girl be urged strongly to learn a trade proficiently even though they intend following a business or profession, for despite the great over-supply of unskilled labor the skilled artisan or tradesman finds abundant employment at factory wages. Sincerely yours, JOHN T. GIVENS, M. D. Norfolk, Va.
