C.-Six Nor- students were among the diplomats who received diplomas during the 57th commencement exercises at Howard University on June 4th. They were: P. Boulding of the School; William E. Goff of the of Dentistry; Daniel W. Kish of the School of Arts; Floyd W. Green of the School of Liberal Arts; Ira H. Selden of the School of Science, and Wendell P. Colle of the School of Liberal and who was also con- commanded as a second lieutenant in the Officers Reserve of the U. S. Army. Rockingham, N. C.—June 9. Probing rigidly into the shockingly brutal story told by 15-year-old colored girl of this is place some days ago, alleging a criminal attack upon her by two young white men and their subsequent drowning of her 9-year-old brother in a fish pond, when his screams aided in frustrating their fiendish designs, the authorities have not succeeded in obtaining any material change in her original statement. Consequently the accused men, W. W. Ward and Jimmy MacClemore are being held in jail. Try Several Plans Practically every artifact known to criminal investigators as being likely to reveal flaws in a concocted story has been tried on this girl, it is said, and even though she is credited with not being at all quick-witted, she has pointed steadfastly at the two men she first accused. Questions that would lead all except probably a person of the most remarkable intellect into recanting or into ridiculous divergences, if the story told were not an absolute truth have been levelled at this child, still she has not only remained set in her identification of the alleged would-be rapists and murderers, but has stuck to her story even in its details. After having been picked out separately by the girl the men were sandwiched between several other young men by Sheriff Baldwin and she unhesitatingly picked them out again as having been her assailants. Both of the accused men, however, steadfastly maintain their innocence. Crime Creates Indignation The alleged crime has created a great deal of indignation here and the authorities are determined to sift to the bottom, it is said. As the girl told it in her first report, it seems that she and her brothers whose ages are 6, 9, and 11, all the children of Mrs. Easter Bright, a widow, were accosted on the hillside by several young white men wearing overalls. An indecent proposal was made to the girl and a tussle ensued, according to her story. One of the men grabbed her and pulled her to him at the same time tearing at her clothes, while another pushed her towards the one that held her in his grasps. She kicked and scratched finally succeeding in biting her assailant's wrist. Frus (Continued on Page Six) State Establishes School of Higher Education With Courses Leading to Degrees And Two Years Pre-medical Durham, N. C., June 11—Dr. J. E. Shepard, for ten years president of the National Training School, now the North Carolina College for Negroes, and for two years president of the institution during the period when it was a State Normal, was Wednesday afternoon unanimously elected president of the North Carolina College for Negroes, by the board of trustees in session here. The trustees established a four year liberal arts college course and a two year pre-medical course. Several changes in the faculty of the institution will be announced following a conference in Raleigh. The normal department was dropped, and the work of training elementary teachers among the colored, will be cut off after this year. Students for the third and fourth years will be admitted next year, but admittance to all high school work will be eliminated thereafter. 20 YEARS 6-13-24 The above cartoon depicts a brief chapter in recent history of the Southern chain-gang system. At Rocky Mount, N. C., W. G. Culley and R. V. Tyler, foot soldier and guard respectively, beat Joe Armstrong, a thirty-day Negro prisoner, to death because he "didn't work fast enough." After beating Armstrong into unconsciousness they hitched his bleeding body to a pair of mules and dragged him seventy-four yards. The victim died in thirty minutes following this torture. The convict bosses were promptly arrested, tried and convicted in Superior Court and sentenced to twenty years each in the State penitentiary, thanks to the fine sense of justice of Judge Sinclair, and the ground indignation of an outraged public sentiment throughout North Carolina.

BROWN Baltimore, Md., June 10—Out under the blue skies on the campus of Morgan College, the Hon. John T.

COURT SUSTAINS COLOR LINE (By Associated Negro Press.) Washington, D. C., June 10—The right of white property owners in the Bloomingdale district of this city, to keep out colored citizens under the covenants contained in the deeds to all the property in the block, by enjoining any such owners as seek to sell to colored persons, was sustained this week in the District Court of Appeals. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 1925 BOY CHAINED TO DEATH CLAIMS MRS. CEILING WHILE HIS B. T. WASHINGTON PARENTS WORKED AT TUSKEGEE HOME Divorced 27 Wives (By Associated Negro Press) Cairo, Egypt, June 10—A watchman at the Alexandria Custom House, now in his 79th year, has just divorced his twenty-seventh wife and is now looking for his twenty-eighth one. The man, Khamis Elerabi, says he has more than fifty children. "I have spent 70 years trying to understand my wives, but each time it resulted in a divorce." BOY CHAINED TO CEILING WHILE HIS PARENTS WORKED Durham, N. C., June 10—David Dunn and his wife of this city will face Judge W. H. Young of Juvenile Court next week on a charge involving the most crudite tactics in child training, growing out of the finding by welfare officers of their 13-year old son, David Dunn jr., chained to the ceiling of his home, while his parents worked in a local factory. When found the boy was fastened about the leg with one end of a chain, securely padlocked, the other end of which was fastened to a beam in the ceiling. No evidence of extreme cruelty being inflicted upon the child was found other than that which the officers felt was sufficiently evidenced in his being chained, his mode of confinement similarizing that employed in the keeping of lower animals. His fetters were of a sufficient length to allow him freely to roam about the room but did not permit him to enter any other part of the home on to escape from the house in event of fire. Within easy reach were a pitcher of water and a food supply for the day. The boy's parents assert he was not chained up as a means of punishment but they felt it safer to chain him in the house than to permit him to room about the place guarded while they were at work. He was chained only during such hours as his parents were out. No formal charge has been laid against Mr. and Mrs. Dunn except they will have to do some explaining to Judge Young, who will probably suggest a more modern method of keeping David jr. out of mischief. WALTER BLOW FUND Acknowledgements of this week's receipts to the Walter Blow fund will be made in next issue, with full report of fund's standing.

WASHINGTON AT TUSKEGEE' HOME Tuskegee Institute, Ala., June 10—Mrs. Margaret J. Murray Washington is dead. The widow of the late Booker T. Washington succumbed at her home "The Oaks" at nine o'clock Thursday night after an illness of a month's duration. Friends and acquaintances the country over were shocked because after being in feeble health two years ago, Mrs. Washington had rallied and of late months had been particularly strong and vigorous. Mrs. Washington was born March 9, 1865 at Macon, Miss., graduated from Fisk University in 1880 and was employed as Lady Principal at Tuskegee Institute after her graduation. In 1892 she married the late Booker T. Washington and was later appointed director of Girls' industries. She possessed rare talents and qualities as an organizer and executive.

Ferguson, of Richmond, and a prominent Republican of the State, sends to the Journal and Guide the following query and suggests the appropriateness of compliance, anent the recent conviction of L. P. Summers, of Abington, former United States Attorney, for violating the penal code. "Do you think that the colored voters of this State should form a Committee on and draft a resolution of condolence to L. P. Summers and also present him with a handsome traveling bag? "Such a resolution would be quite opportune since he was the chief counsel for the 'Ilywhites' during our political contests before the Republican National Convention in 1912, 1916 and 1920." Mr. Summers was recently convicted in Federal Court on a charge involving the presentation for payment out of government funds improper vouchers in connection with his office.

CONVICT GUARDS GET 20 YEARS FOR HORRIBLE MURDER Beat And Lashed Prisoner And Dragged Him To Death At Heels Of Horses; Judge Says Crime Worst In State. Tarboro, N. C., June 10—Sensational exposes of conditions in Edgecombe County prison camps, "Prison of Horrors." have been revealed by the grand jury probe following the conviction of two guards for the murder of Joe Armstrong, a convict. Indictments charging murder and assault upon prisoners have since been returned against George Cooper, former guard at the Rocky Mount road district camp and B. H. Bynum, former captain of the camp. Cooper is charged with the murder of Roy Scott on June 17, 1924. Bynum, who resigned immediately following his indictment after serving for six years, is charged in nine counts with alleged assaults upon prisoners under his charge. A searching investigatio n has been recommended by the grand jury. (Special to Journal and Guide) T a b o r e, N. C.—Twenty years in the penitentiary at hard labor was the sentence meted out to W. C. Gulley, road foreman, and R. V. Tyler, guard of a convict camp, by Judge N. A. Sinclair Monday afternoon on a charge of murder involving brutality that harkens back to the days of the Inquisition. Just three days previously, Friday, a grand jury in Edgcombe County had returned an indictment against the men hold them responsible for the death of Joe Armstrong, a Negro convict, working on the road. Facing the same stern judge who handed out the 30 year sentence in the Needleman-mob案, and a judge who has openly declared war on mob rule, the defendants pitt forth no defense. They confessed their crime with a penitence, suvuring of mockery when consideration is given to the horror of their deed. In the mercy of the court they found a 20 year sentence. Witnesses Testify Testimony of witnesses at the inquest and the final wording of the indictment brings up a vivid mind-picture of a scene in Russia during its bloodiest era, or of the killing of one of their number by the most benighted savages. "We find that Joe Armstrong came to his death as the result of blows inflicted on his body and head by sticks and a whip in the hands of W. C. Gulley and R. V. Tyler," read the indictment. Witnesses declared that the whipping administered to Armstrong lasted at least 30 minutes, and that the reason offered for whipping him was that he "didn't work fast enough." Testimony was to the effect that the convict was severely beaten with both a stick and a heavy whip by the two accused men, that his prostrate form, heavily shackled was hitched to a pair of horses and dragged at least 75 yards. When he was united from the team and failed to rise a blow with fists was handed him. The stick was described as a hickory, four or five feet long and one inch in diameter at the butt and tapering down. After Gulley had almost exhausted himself by using this bludgeon on the prostrate man, Tyler came along and using a plaited lash on a stick two or three feet long. It was stated, he whipped Joe with the lash then broke its staff over his head. Joe after being struck with fists staggered to his feet, but after a few feeble motions fell to the ground and died within 30 minutes as a result of the barbary and wretchedness of two Carolina convict camp herders. He had been sen- (Continued on Piece Six) Y. W. C. A.

BROWN Hittimore, Md.—100 degrees Forenheit in the shade and believe it, it takes a real red-blooded fellow to go out at twelve o'clock noon and repeat the tennis expert's favor quilt, "Ry Jove, it's good to be alive and on a tennis court, then jump in and race at top speed through five sets of scintillating drives, volleys, smashes and service nces. That's what the modern scientific game of tennis demands. It's a sport for real honest-to-good- ness: he-men and Wild West ladies in fashion's latest "knickers" or very short unenumbered skirts. The present international tennis gala is played in a boiling hot sum, demanding almost inherent, extraordinary physical rigor and relentless stamina. There is no man of any race living who is naturally more likely to be exceptionally endowed to withstand these prerequisites as the American Negro in less, than twenty years I predict a black man whose ancestors have withstood the burning suns of Afrikan and whose foreparents have withstood bare-headed, the long seasons of back-bending in American cotton fields will be crowned world's tennis champion just as Jack Johnson earned that offer crown on that hot afternoon ib. Reno. We do not have to draw much on the analogue to see the plausibility of this observation. Gerald Patterson from down under the sun of Australiaasia won the world's title as the best living tennis player in 1919. Norman Brooks from the same English colony had done it before, as well as their late countryman, Anthony F. Wilding, B. J. C. Norton runner-up at Wimbledon, England to William T. Tilden 2nd; the American who first won the coveted championship on grass was, schooled and baked in South Africa as an English overseer, "Billy" Johnston and Maurice McLaughlin, two of America's worldplayers and second in their prime, no man, came from California, the land of perpetual sunshine. Mr. Tilden, known as the surrealist player of all times by his greatest admirers is the exception that proves the rule. But who is there, to doubt, the super-human僭物 of the six-foot giant whose wealth, schooled and reared him, in perpetual sunshine from the time he was seven years old. But there has been only one other Nerdle, Nurmi, and it will be a long thundt until another visits America, while only last week an unknown Negro school boy ran thirteen in a 10-inch race with 800 other starters. Big hands, long arms, and long legs, are essential in fine tenns, individualistic powers and versatile minds. Like Dehart Hubbard, the Negro possesses, going out, and equaling the world's 100 yard-dash record after bowing only by inches to another world's record, held by a fellow member of the darker race. Our athletes have daring like Ber- William H.

The Japanese have these mental qualifications, the ability to play in the hot sun but they seem to lack the height, stature, reach and sturdy physique. If supremacy in the tennis world is to be wrested from the white man, we are compelled to look to the black man and I believe it will be by the American Negro or the West Indian. The advent of Mr. Richard Hudlin into college tennis at the University of Chicago appears to be one door. The rumor that Mr. B. M. Clark of Kinston, Jamaica, is to come to America with a Davis Cup team next year strikes another splendid chord. Given a practical knowledge of the modern, scientific game from observation and study of the literature of tennis the last and imperative opportunity is contact—play with the great masters of the game. In lieu of this the American Tennis Association, the official national organization for the promotion of tennis among colored people has started in the right direction and by a more clear cut (not chop) emphasis on hard hitting and the study of the science of the game will make the race their lasting debt. BERKLEY ELKS NOSE OUT OVER NEWPORT NEWS The Berkley Elks barely nosed out over Newport News "Y" by a score of 12-11 in a closely contested game. The features of the games were the circuit clouts by both nines who placed the willow on the pill for several rides to the home plate. In this phase of the game, Jackson lead with the hat, scoring two homers over the right field inclosure. One was in the first frame and the second came in the third stanza with two on bags.

That's a notion that has been running down the times for quite a while. While in a duelup covering a semi-pro baseball game between the Elks, (local) and Winston-Salem Pond Giants I saw some very sportsmanship on the part of both teams. At the time some of players needed to be patted on the shoulder, having soothing words to them and their teammates making remarks of assurance, the questioned were spreading on the razzberry thick and fast and uping them lustily. When an athlete cracks under a strain he needs the advice and assurance of his teammates, more so than at any other time. The moundman for the visiting team was a youngster and has the making of a good pitcher, but if he has to countenance such things as he did here, he will soon become discouraged. In reality, his teammates had no come back at him. They were giving him support and when he wilted they went up in the air. This youngster plainly register his feelings.

It was really thought that Flowers did not make the same mistake. We thought that he had used the folly of trying to fight week and hope to remain in form. In the last month he has least five fights or more. I infer what this fellow expects? Is he trying to do? It was a stimulus of cook-aged opinions that and hopes of becoming middle-achion of the world, but cannot be it, by the way he is lying on these days. Flowers can take it easy.

His virtue of his win over Gibbons, Gene Tunney has moved up to top ranks where he is considered as a contender for the world's title. Before Tunney was matched with Tom Gibbons, he had been seriously considered as a prospective contender for Dempsey's title. There is only one obstacle in his way now and that is the winner the Wills-Weinert scramble scheduled for Friday, June 19. Of course, Dempsey made the statement that he would come back to this hurry to battle the winner of the Gibbons-Tunney affair. It is believed that Tunney will be given a crack at Dempsey before he done battle with someone else. It is true that he has removed the main contenders. That has been done and there is no other ballyhooing about that, but there are other contenders and among them is Harry Wills who will cross mitts with the Newark course to prove to the world that he is worthy of a bout with Dempsey, the matching of Wills and Weinert was a boner, but if I win, which he is sure to do, the victory will not hurt him. It's big gamble though. If by the slightest chance he should not win wisely, he will be that much further from the long waited for prize. Thomas Gibbons, champion heavy trappers who ever grace the heavyweight championship, sent his kicking for the first by virtue of his win over Gibbons top ranks where he is considered title. Before Tunney was not seriously considered as a champion, there is only one obstacle in the Wills-Weinert scramble scene.

Pauline Starke, Wallace Beery, William Collier jr., and Claire Adams comprise the quartetee of featured players in the leading roles of the new Victor Fleming-Paramount production, "The Devil's Cargo," coming next Wednesday and Thursday at the Attucks. Miss Starke's role is that of Faro Sampson, daughter of the proprietor of the most notorious saloon and gambling den in Sacramento—a girl in many moods. She is shown as a sweet demure girl, a calculating, revengeful woman, a fighting tiger, tender, wistful all at one and the same time. It is claimed that Beery gives the finest of all his scream characterizations as Ben, a stoker on the river boat, a simple-minded hulk of a fellow who has been beaten from, pillar to post all his life. Wallace is always at his best when he is at his worst—if you follow what we mean. And he's real devilish in "The Devil's Cargo." Young Collier plays the editor of an 1850 newspaper and Miss Adams is his puritanical sister. Other big narmes in the cast are Raymond Flatton in a great comedy part of the first mate on the river boat—the scenes between him and Beery furnish many a laugh for the audience.

JOHNSON The Eureka Baseball Club, Norfolk's crack amateur nine won a three game series from the Winston-Salem Pond Giants at League Park Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. The local team clearly outplayed the visitors in nearly every department of the games which were hotly contested from gong to gong. The first game was a little slow and the mere handful of fans that were on hand to witness the meles occasionally handed out the razzberry. The first game score was 5-4, second 5-4 and the last 11-10. The second game was one of the best amateur serabras seen on the local lot in quite a while. Bibbins was clearly the star in two of the games and listed with Bob Tolliver in the third as the stellar performers of the afternoon. The hitting of Long and Petree for the losers of the second game stood out for their team. Gwyn Raggs made a good showing at short for the North Carolina nine. The line up for the last two games was practically the same as for the first.

BOYS' CLUB Boxing, Wrestling and Baseball Quite Popular With Youngsters On the regular hike-day of last week the Athenians won a great victory in baseball wit his score S-3. The game was hard fought and in the eighth inning the Athenians set their goal too high for the Olympians to see. The Athenians also won a very interesting boxing match. The Olympians took for their share of the day's sport a very thrilling wrestling match and also a boxing bout. All these activities are played with clean sportsmanship like spirit, with James Beid acting as referee and unpire. The regular Tuesday evening Literary meeting was not as full as usual, due to the heavy rain, but quite interesting with the story telling and musical numbers. Rudolph Charlton is in charge of the music of the club. Alleged Fiends (Continued From Page One) treated in their designs the men seized her 9-year-old brother, stripped him, put him in a boat and showed out stream, where they either made him jump or throw him overboard. For a few seconds the frantic little follow struggled desperately, until the waters closed about him. He was drowned. For the first time, evidently, realizing what they had done, the men rowed ashore and made off across a dam. The screaming children on shore hurried off across a field for help. Within an hour the child's body was taken from the water. Story First Doubted At first it was believed that the children had become alarmed over the drowning of their brother thru their own disobedience and had framed the tale. The insistence of the younger brothers in corroborating it, however, has led the authorities to the belief that the story happened as described. They learned that two young men from Hannah Pickot Mill had been absent from that village since Monday. A search was instituted for them. Ward was arrested Wednesday and Marcemere was caught at McColl Thursday. Each was taken before the girl and each was positively identified even to the overall they were. The men will remain in jail while Sheriff Baldwin pursues further his investigation.

We recently THOUSANDS GOING TO SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS IN TEXAS (Special to Journal and Guide) Beaumont, Texas—"Every member out of every family in some Sunday school," was the one big theme stressed at the opening session of the twentieth Sunday School Congress which opened this city today at the South Texas Fair Ground Exposition Buildings. Five days will be spent in what Henry Allen Boyd, the Secretary of the Congress calls Front Line Sunday School Building. Special trains began to arrive last evening, the most notable of these was the Official Congress Special that came in bringing the Congress Secretary and his co-workers from Tennessee, the President of the National Baptist Convention from Kentucky, with the Kentucky messengers, and other representatives from the states of Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Indiana, Illinois, District of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania and other points in the states mentioned. It was estimated today after the official welcome by Beaumont, that twenty-nine states were already represented on the official enrollment. Fourteen departments to be known hereafter as Extension Sections go to make up this Summer School of Methods. Beaumont's rousing welcome was the one big feature of this opening day.

Robinson, of Little Rock, Ark., came in with the Arkansas and Texas messengers and was present in the crowd to greet the official special. Just an even dozen themes will be taken up in the main session during the five days of activity. Plans are arranged for the entertainment for the entire week. All sessions and Extensions Sections will be held at the Fair Grounds. The exposition building and two other buildings have been placed at the disposal of the Sunday school workers during the week.

Petersburg, Va. - The Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute held its forty-second commencement exercise in the auditorium of the Institute, June 2, at which time three young women received degrees of A. B, and B. S., and thirty-five received diplomas from the Normal School. The address was delivered by Dr. J. W. E. Bowen, Ph. D. of Atlanta, Dr. J. M. Gandy conferred the degrees and presented the diplomas. President Gandy announced the fact that the student body and faculty of the Institute had raised more than $8,000, toward the construction of a gymnasium, which will cost $40,000. The young men of the Institute during the week gave their services in digging the foundation and pouring the concrete, a service amounting to $200-90. It is hoped that the first section of the three section building will be ready for use in September. President Gandy also thanked the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity for the scholarship furnished a young man of the high school, Eric Epps, who will enter upon his college work next fall; and the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority for the two scholarships awarded to Misses Hattie Witten of Roanoke and Fannie Hurt of Petersburg, college students for the coming year. In addition to the number of graduates mentioned a bove, on June 1 eighty-two were graduated from the High School, one from Vocational Agriculture, two from Carpentry, three from AutoMechanics, one from Shoe Repairing, and three from Electric Wiring. During the school year of four quarters, 172 students were graduated. The college work of the Institute which has been established three years has been given A rating by the states of Virginia, North Carolina. The Board of Education of the State recognized the excellent quality of the work done by the college students and awarded each graduate the College Professional Certificate, the highest certificate given by the State, which entitles them to teach in the high schools of the State. During the three years of its existence the enrollment in the college has grown to 182 with an outlook of about 100 entering freshman for the fall quarter. The present college class is the first to be graduated from the college since 1902, at which time the State of Virginia changed the curriculum of the Virginia Normal and Collegiate Institute to a Normal and Industrial Institute. After a period of twenty years the college work has been resumed and bids fair to grow in a few years to one of the leading colleges of the South. ```markdown ``` URTORDERSTOPS CRIMINATION OF LORED PUPILS Court Judge Orders School Card And Principal Tomit Girls And Boys To Company Class on Outing Eroit, Mich., June 9—The suit against Highland Park for Education by Jennie Mae and Roy Thurman, girl and students of Highland Park School, to enjoy the school superintendent of schools the president of the education from discriminating againstendants on account of race, or religion was decided in of the petitioners by Judge F.

More than five thousand (6000) were present at the exercises. Dr. James E. Shepard, president of Durham State College, Durham, N. C., who delivered the commencement address said; "Now to the Graduation Classes; I cannot utter to you in this brief closing more than I have said in the remarks already made. One writer has wisely said: 'Luck doesn't float around the air and light on Tom or Dick or Harry just anyhow and anywhere. The wit to know the thing you want; the will to work; faith to fight; the strength to use but tempered tools and only weapons honored bright; the spirit and the spunk to bear, and when disaster falls, the pluck to grin and start again. That's Luck!' Service does not always need or require a broad field, the opportunity for service is everywhere. Often we can do more good in a small community, a small environment than in a large one. Make infirmities stepping stones by which you can lift yourselves from depths to heights. Bunyan in jail wrote the 'Pilgrim's Progress'; Milton blind, gave us those divining messages which will live. No one could better appreciate and understand that sentence 'Blackest Night.' than we.

TWO MORE HOUSTON MARTYRS ELIGIBLE FOR PARDONS One Will Leave Prison June 9. Another Will Become Eligible For Home Parole August 9. According to Officer New York, June 10—Another one of the members of the 24th Infantry, whose sentences were reduced as a result of the campaign undertaken by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and cooperating bodies, will be released on Tuesday, June 9, according to a letter received by the N. A. A. C. P. from Major Edgar King, Acting Parole Officer at the Fort Leavenworth Disciplinary Barracks. Major King states that the man, William Frazer, had his case considered and approved by the War Department. Another prisoner r, James Croker, whose home is in Brooklyn, N. Y., has applied for parole, according to Major King, and will become eligible for Home Parole on August 9, of this year. Major King has asked the N. A. A. and Adviser for Mr. Frazier.

All of these 27 men will have become eligible for parole at intervals up to 1928, in which year it is probable that all the prisoners will have been released.

Spaulding are still here. Durham Negroes seem to be thriving. They are going forward by leaps and bounds. In 1900 the assessed value of taxable property owned by Negroes in the County was $181,116.00. In 1924 the assessed value was $181,022.00 or an increase of $2,999,600. Most of this property is located in Durham. In some respect, how to meet that Negroes have suffered a distinct loss. They do not seem the same generous, noble hearted people of other days. They carry an atmosphere of chilling aloofness. Speaking of this, prominent Negro leaders he said to be "the only thing about it is that Durham outgrown you." Perhaps. We are a little sentimental. We cherish the old home virtues. We love old friendships, and we have many. We hope never to "outgrow" them. Our fear is that our people of Durham are "gaining the world" but losing their hearts and souls. They have changed the name of the oldest Negro school in Durham from "The Whitted School" to The Hillside Park School. This should never have been done. Prof Jas. A. Whitted for whom the school was first named was one of the rarest of men. He was a gentleman, he was a man, he was an honest man, he was a faithful, loyal friend. His work in the organization and growth of that school should always be remembered. In no other way could this be more appropriately done than by giving the school his name.

A. A. C. T.) New York, June 8. A news sheet of the International Labor Press of American, forwarded by William English Walling to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, contains a strong denunciation of mob law. The comment is occasioned by the storming of the jail in Dallas where two Negroes were confined, in the course of which a number of the mobbists were shot. "If accused men are guilty," says the Labor Press sheet, "the place to determine that fact is in the courts. If they are innocent, the surely should have a proper proof that innocence in the courts. Few men have been able to prove their innocence to a mob and mobs have lynched many innocent men. "Mobs are the last word in antithesis of organized government, Organized government means order, and mobs mean disorder and their conduct is just as unlawful as the conduct of whatever guilty men they lynch. There is not one valid excuse for mob action." CLAELIN UNIVERSITY Cladius University lost a close one to Benedict College of Columbia, S. C., last Friday, 6. to 4.

Any set with large open filed type coils will pick up energy, lightly. The results in these picking-up effects reduces selectivity of the set. The sole purpose of any tuning device is to pass one definite frequency to a coil and to select the others. The more thoroughly it re- jects the undersized frequency the greater the selective properties. If an inducting coil picks up en- ergy other than the desired frequency it naturally injures its purpose. It is an excellent idea to employ coils of small dimensions rather than pancake coils or inducting transformers. A good method for preventing coils from being injected by the coils is to completely shield the set in a metal lined cabinet. The only type of winding that is free from this effect is one having a closed or self contained field. Radio Developments In the past six years a tremendous jump has been made in the radio business. The sale in radio equipment have been reported as follows: 1920—$2,000,000. 1921—$5,000,000. 1922—$60,000,000. 1923—$120,000,000. 1924, almost $350,000,000, and there are good reasons to believe that this year's sales will nearly double that of last year.

The University will operate next year on a budget of nearly a million dollars, the largest of any institution in the world for training colored youth. Dr. Emmett J. Scott, treasurer, reported at the annual meeting of the trustees on Wednesday afternoon. Dr. Scott made this estimate on the supposition that $130,000 for equipment of the new medical school is obtained. This, in addition to a $291,000 Government appropriation and $265,000 out of the general funds, will make a grand total of $565,000. Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, president, reported during the year an unusual weakening of the student body to have a high attendance during the past year, he said, was 2,064, with students from 47 states and from 11 foreign countries. These trustees were re-elected for three years: Charles I, Corby Washington; Dr. Albert Bushell Hart, Boston, and Bishop John Hurst, Baltimore. These new trustees were elected; Victor B. Devber, C.

Vote Teacher Retirement The Trustees accepted the report of the Budget Committee to which was referred the matter of teachers' annuities, retiring allowances, etc., that at retirement-age teachers have given to the University at least fifteen years of continued service. It also adopted the request that one-third of present salaries he allowed retiring teachers, to be paid out of the General Funds of the University other than Congressional.

THE METOKAS The Metokas are planning big things in connection with the reception and send-off party to their teacher, Rev. John Miles, who finishes both his religious education and sojourn in the city, coincidently this week. Rev. Miles made his farewell remarks, and the school he leaves as he will not visit the city another Sunday, if present plans are not interrupted. The vehicledictory of Rev. Miles has been looked forward to with regret, both by himself and the Sunday school, because the affable and pheidodisposition of Rev. Miles together with his school enthused that the disposition has so enclosed him to the Sunday school that to lose his instruction and soability is a blow to the Sunday school, equal almost, to disintegration. There is a reciprocal feeling of endeavour between Rev. Miles and the classes of the Sunday school, especially the Metokas Class of which he has been a teaching teacher for quite some time. The Metokas are presenting him with a purse of fifty dollars on Wednesday evening at their farewell reception to him, as a token of the class' respect, love, regard and appreciation of his services, to the Metokas Services Church Sunday school, but the catholic church as well.

Many middle-aged, as well as younger women and girls were seen in the class, which serves to show that the desire to know for knowledge and the desire to 'know how to do things in a practical way is not limited to any age. Many took advantage of the night classes after having worked all day, with 'Sympathy Bind Us'; class colors, Purple and Gold class flower, Daisy. A very timely lecture was given the graduates by the Rev, Father Glenn. DRAMATIC CLUB REVIVED Sexually, because of the advent of several now dramatic clubs, on societies here recently, that have been producing varied and sunny plays that were not altogether up to the standard set for them by dramatists of pust, whose plays were being reproduced, the old reliable Amateur Dramatic Club with such stellar plays as *Miracle with Miss Pervoy Knox* Mr. I. Henry Peters and others aroused themselves, shook off the lethargy that had seemingly thrown them into a state of "Rip Van Winklitis" sailed forth a new presented to the public, "The invisible Foe," as only the A. D. C. can, last Friday night. The acting of Mrs. Harris, who played the leading role was excellent, to say nothing of the entire cast who performed like veteran Knights of the Thespion art. A large and appreciative audience was in attendance at the Reformer glad of the opportunity of seeing the fun club in action again. Mrs. Harris, who is supervisor of recreation and playgrounds, is said to have received several flattering offers in the past from some of the leading professional producers. FITTING MEMORIAL SERVICES Very befitting Memorial Day ceremonies were performed May 30 at the National Cemetery by a large crowd of interested folks from the various lodges and societies chiefly among the Knights of Pilphins, Publiphants, and Hill Cars. Auxiliary to the Patriarchate. A brief but appropriate address was delivered by Rev. R. H. Johnson, pastor of Sharon Baptist Church. After remarks by other prominent speakers, some of them veterans of the Civil War and Spanish American War, went about the business of decoration of the graves of the valiant soldiers who laid down their lives for the cause of freedom. Not a single grave was overlooked. "CONVERSION OF ST. PAUL Under the direction of Mrs. Olivia Bolden and Mr. W. B. Smith, of which Richmond's most prominent musicians, both instrumental and vocal, the "Conversion of St. Paul," was repeated at the Van De Vyder School Auditorium Sunday night for the benefit of the hundreds who were unable to get in the St. Philips night, when this good concert was rendered for the first time. Assisting on the program which consisted of several participants—was a new addition to the musical world in the form of an octette of male singers, organized by Mr. William H. Tinsley, the famous lyric tenor. The singing of this group was remarkable in as much as they handled many numbers with neatness and dispatch. ELKS DONATE TO ORPHAN Once a year the Capital City Lodge of Elks goes to the Orphan Asylum, not only to do honor to Baker, Miss Arlene Baker, Mrs. Josephine Hazzard and Mr. Howard Hubbard, also came with the orchestra. —Baker's Orchestra of Cambridge, Mass., gave a dance at New Britain Friday, May 29. The affair was extremely successful. The young men also entertained at the fonic Club rooms on Saturday evening, May 30. —Mr. and Mrs. George Livingston, returned from a vacation spent in "Atlantic City." PAGE ELEVEN the children there, but to raise funds as well. Through a usually well-planned program each year, it grows bigger and bigger and on Sunday last, the neat lawn of the Friendship Center is to be heard by the ceremonies oranged for the occasion. "A monstrous parade was held through the principal streets which ended at the home. Besides the Elks there were in the line of March, the Seven Buzzards, Hiawatha Beneficial Society, the Elks Club and the Wall Club, each being led by a different hand. The principal speaker of the day was Governor Trinkle, who openly expressed surprise at the co-operation of the Colored people in such charitable matters. The Governor delivered a wonderful address and was spoken to by women, after which a collection was raised, which is said to have been in the neighborhood of one thousand dollars. This great love was instituted by the Capital City Lodge but it is being followed up numerously with numerous ladies. This lady held a special initiation on May 18, when they initiated into the order 125 new members. At the last meeting they also elected delegates to the convention which convenes here in August. FINALS AT HARTSHORN FINALS AT HARTSHORN The closing exercises of the Hartshorn College College were held last week, which marked the 41st commencement of the school. Out of the twenty-four graduates there were three from the college department and twenty from the Academic Department. The Hartshorn College and Virginia 'Union University are so closely connected, both in spirit and in location, that it is difficult to speak of one without mentioning the other. The day that closed the exercises of Hartshorn marked the opening of the exercises of Union—it being the twenty-seventh commencement of Union University. Forty-four graduates from the school while honorary degrees were conferred upon three. The commencement address was delivered by Mr. James Weldon Johnson, Litt. D., New York City, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. MISS EDNA JORDAN IS RICHMOND DEBUTANTE Miss Edna Lenora Jordan, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William A. Jordan of this city, was the smiling debatante at a magnificent reception held in her honor at the Hampton Institute, and Jordan is a senior at Hampton Institute and had just returned from her studies to be the honored young lady of the evening. Favored by a prancing breeze that relieved the effects of the hot country, the guests are arriving near 8 o'clock. The out-of-town guests, of which there were several, were introduced to and mingled with the local guests for a while and then the enticing strains of the orchestra called those present to join in dancing. The well-dressed young men and the beautifully grown young women later scattered to the porch and the hawn, there better to enjoy the beautiful weather—"The June night, the moonlight, and you" and to be served to them. The repast were included salads, creams, cakes, punch, and other goodies that came in just the time before the joymakers again directed their tingling toes in the direction from whence came the musical strains of rare, beautiful, sincerely expressed from the guests declaring that they simply had a dandy time, the fun had to cease and the guests start for home. The home, beautiful in itself, and beautifully decorated, the hospitality, the gaily and morth of the occasion, all helped to make this a unique opening for the sum- The out-of-town guests included: Mrs. Undine Davis, Miss. Hinde Davis, Miss. Helen Santa Cruz, Dr. and Mrs. Turner, of Hampton; Miss Laura Wilkerson, of Bhoebus, Va. and Miss Missie Jennings, of Moorhua, Va. Mr. Leonard Jones, of Moorhua, Va. Mr. Wilbur Townsend, of Rocky Mount, and Mr. P. Bernard Young Jr., of Norfolk. The young men and women were Miss Jordan's schoolmates.

To make people think, and in the right way, is always the business of the master, and those who are not masters who undertake to do so usually fail, and get ridicule rather than applause for the efforts, which may have been entirely honest. All are not masters. Mark that, more people knew and directed the Dr. DuBois, editor of the Crisis, often hits off some truth in a way to hold the attention and make those to whom it appeals think. To make people think, and in the right way, is always the business of the master, and those who are not masters who undertake to do so usually fail, and get ridicule rather than applause for their efforts, which may have been entirely honest. All are not masters. Mark that. If more people knew and directed their thoughts and efforts along this line there would be more successes and fewer failures. It is trying to fit in where you do not belong which causes so many to fall short in the things they undertake. They have to learn by their mistakes, and pay for learning. Sometimes it is very costly. In the June Crisis, Dr. DuBois says: "Without Beauty, Freedom has no plea; without Truth, Freedom has no goal; and yet, without Freedom, Beauty is not born; without Freedom, Truth is not known; wherefore Beauty, Truth and Freedom—the three; but the greatest of these is Freedom." The essence of poetry, like that of oracalism, like that of parabalism, is to so clothes the thought in mysticism as to compel those to whom it is addressed to think. In his way Dr. DuBois is much of a philosopher but more of a poet. Without freedom, such as others about us enjoy and to the enjoyment of which we are equally entitled, life is not worth much at most. But to have and enjoy so much of freedom and opportunity as we are justly entitled to has been the age-long struggle, the end of which appears to be as far off as in the beginning, when the world was young. The necessity is upon us, therefore to fight for our share. Editorial Page of Our Group are Fundamentalists in Religion The religious question has been the uppermost in the public mind and discussion for some time. The daily and weekly news papers give much space to the discussion of Fundamentalism and Modernist viewpoints and the alleged conflict of Science and Religion—the Biblical or evolutionary theory of the creation and the origin of man. The case of Prof. Scopes, who has been indicted for teaching the theory of evolution in the public schools contrary to the law of Tennessee, and the acceptance of Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick to the pastorate of the Rockefeller Baptist Church, in New York City, on his own terms, which discard imersion by baptism as an essential of Baptist Faith, and doctrinal differences in the Presbyterian Church, with William Jennings Bryan, the Democratic stormy petro and marplot, as the strife breeder, with a threat of dismemberment of the ancient Church of England, because of the growth of Roman Catholicism and Protestant denominationalism,—all this indicates that Christian people everywhere have reached the point where it is, no longer considered that simple faith is all that is necessary to the spiritual needs and hopes of mankind. We find that Afro-Americans are fundamentalists, for the most cults that are seeking through new paths to find the field in which is the "new and better covenant." We accept the Bible as our sufficient guide to the higher and better things we all hope after life here as we know it. We are beginning to doubt and speculate somewhat as others are doing, but there is no wide tendency to do so. That may be due in large measure to the fact that we have so many other problems to contend with that absorb our time and dominate our thoughts, keeping us busy guessing. We have yet the simple faith that moves mountains, the same simple faith that a majority of the Christian people of the United States have. Perhaps it will always be that way, as the Christian philosophy when properly understood, and it is not generally, is sufficient for all of our National and personal requirements. It has brought us thus far, and the belief is general that it is sufficient to carry us further in the enlargement of higher and better things in human life and living. We have seen many radical changes to our advantage in the gradual evolution of the past half century, and we are seeing so much of the like sort from day to day that we see no good and sufficient reason to waver in the Faith or stumble in the Promises. The Afro-American people are comprehended in the prophecy, "I will make me a new people and a new tongue," and in "The Atonement," and "The Passover," in the New Test of Men, which the New Testament being interpreted, reads, and we shall prove false to ourselves if we waver and stumble as so many are doing, in denying the faith and running after false gods. Yes; the Afro-American people are Fundamentalists, and they can give a reason for the faith that is in them by pointing to what they have become in this free Nation from what they began in the days of the Colonies.

Journal And Guide's Position Sustained When in his report on social welfare work in Norfolk, Dr. Edward T. Devine, a recognized sociologist, concludes that "the city is spending relatively too small an amount on 'family service'—the economic problems of charity, he sustained the position of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE in reference to the Community Center and the Community Chest Fund. When both the Virginian-Pilot and the Ledger-Dispatch commenting editorially on Dr. Devine's report struck a note of sympathy with his conclusions relative to some "faulty adjustments" of the Chest Fund's budget they further vindicated the attitude expressed and continually emphasized by the JOURNAL AND GUIDE concerning the Community Center adjustment to the Fund. Of course, Dr. Devine did not, nor did either of the daily papers find it necessary to phrase their comments in the direction of any particular welfare agency, such a public duty, as it sees it, has forced the JOURNAL AND GUIDE to do. But all of them agree that 'family relief' is the primary charity of the community. From their conclusions a logical and just deduction also may be drawn that they agree that agencies which are doing tangible and definite social welfare work are entitled to the first demands on the public purse over those agencies which are at best performing a service elusive in its description and questionable in its real benefits. In this connection the Virginian-Pilot avers: When in his report on social welfare work in Norfolk, Dr. Edward T.

In this connection the Virginian-Pilot ayers: "Dr. Devine's conclusions were of an agreeable and complimentary nature. He found, however, a number of faulty adjustments and submitted recommen- dations for their amelioration. Perhaps the most notable item in this category was his conclusion that the city is spending too little money for 'family service' the ordinary works of material charity as the public generally understands them. His analysis showed that the total amount to be expended this year for family relief under the revised budgets of the charitable agencies in the Community Fund was only 12 per cent of the total Fund appropriation and only 6 per cent of the total income of all the agencies participating in the Fund. In his opinion this percentage is disproportionately small in comparison with the amounts allotted to the health and character building agencies performing no family relief work. "Here is a knotty question but one which needs to be faced. It is a problem of which many individuals became aware during the Community Fund drive last November. At that time the complaint was frequently heard that the Community Fund budget gave unduly large allowances to the character building organizations, and the failure of the drive to attain its goal was ascribed in many quarters to dissatisfaction to this lack of balance." That paper concludes: "But it does believe that unless the problems to which Dr. Devine has pointed can be settled to the satisfaction of the vast majority of Norfolk people, the future of the Community Fund cannot be assured." Commenting in the same vein the Ledger-Dispatch says: "Deserving as are those agencies which Dr. Devine catalogues as 'character building' we believe that the administrators of the Community Fund should stress the solution of economic problems: Their first duty, as we see it, is the prevention of human suffering. "When provision has been made for this the upkeep of the clubs and recreation facilities among those whom Dr. Devine speaks of as relatively prosperous should receive all the consideration that the means at the disposal of the Fund will allow." Both of these influential journals are Dr. Devine, an acknowledged expert in philanthropic work, have expressed in a numshell the precise point the JOURNAL AND GUIDE has striven to make in its disclosureregarding conduct of the Community Center. Accrediting itself with some knowledge of social welfare problems among the colored people of the city, and realizing that the Center, if it performs any service at a performs a service less vital to the amelioration of those problems and less defined its directness than that of any of the other agency members participating in the Community Chest Fund, this newspaper has striven to show its "faulty adjustment" in the Fund's budget. It was this "faulty adjustment" that provoked dissatisfaction among the colored population last November and cost the Chest Fund its success in this group. It was heavy price to pay, but if by the paying it, future success of the campaign can reasonably assured, it will have been we paid. Meanwhile it is a "faulty adjustment" the JOURNAL AND GUIDE will continue to emphasize until developments indicate that such will no longer be permitted jeopardize the Chest Fund and the interest of all the colored welfare agencies.

Spirit of the Press Spirit of the Press Inaccurate News From the Suffolk (Va.) News. From the Suntalk (Va.) News. Those who claim that the press is unreliable and that one can rarely believe what one sees in its columns, speak extravagantly to say the least. Others do so at the expense of being accurate, if not untruthful themselves. It is a fact that defies contradiction that reports of all kinds as finally printed in the newspapers are far more accurate and truthful than the average "word of mouth" on the streets. If newspapers were as careless in handling the truth, if they were as wild and extravagant in printing the news as some people are in disseminating it on the streets and in the loafing places half of them would be in bankruptcy through libel and damage suits. Those who claim that the press is unliable and that one can rarely believe who one sees in its columns, speak extravagant to say the least. Others do so at the expense of being accurate, if not untruthful then selves. It is a fact that defies contradiction that reports of all kinds as finally printed in the newspapers are far more accurate and truthful than the average "word of mouth on the streets. If newspapers were as careless in handling the truth, if they were wild and extravagant in printing the new as some people are in disseminating it on the streets and in the loafing places half them would be in bankruptcy through life. Most of these inaccuracies of newspaper reports, and the unbiased and candid man is forced to admit that they are usually very nearly correct, is due to inaccurate information from some one considered reliable and not through any fault of the reporter or the newspaper. The man who yells the loudest about inaccurate, untruthful and unreliable news in the papers is the man who will deny them the opportunity to get the news correctly or who tries to suppress the news so that when it does get to the paper it is garbled. Some public officials seem to think that the best way to treat the newspapers is to keep all matters locked up in their records which are seldom seen by anybody. The newspapers have a right to print anything that is news and common courtesy demands that they should be given a chance to get it correctly. The reporter is entitled to courteous treatment like any other man engaged in a professional or business enterprise. He is employed to get the commodity that his concern deals in and to deny it may not only result seriously for him but for those who possess the information wanted. But common courtesy and candor costs no man anything. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 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 to long will be answered by Mr. Parker in this column. When space will not permit or the subject A L. D. B. of the Florida Sentinel has kindly furnished the information about a history of Liberia. Such a history was written by Dr. T. H. B. Walker of Jacksonville, and published by the Cornhill Company of Boston and sells for $2.00. Q. Was Jesus Christ a myth or did he really live? Persons tell me that there is no record of Jesus having lived outside the Bible and that no Roman historians make mention of him. Is this true? D. F., Little Rock, Ark. A. There seems to be plenty of evidence of the fact that Jesus lived, although the evidence is not extensive outside the Bible. However, several Roman historians did mention him. Read Papini's Life of Christ, The Life of Jesus by Renan, and the title in Chepne's Encyclopedia Biblica. Q. My advisor questions the authenticity of your statements that Browning, Lafcadio Hearn Crisis Attacks, Runshes the If those from whom information is sought will be as cereful in their version of a story, and as courteous and gentlemans as the average well-trained newspaper reporter, complaints of inaccuracy and untruthfulness in the news columns will disappear. But no news can be more reliable than the source from which it emanates. There should be friendly and cordial cooperation between the public and its newspapers in order that facts may be stated clearly and truthfully no matter what they may be. One of the surest ways t oinsure its getting in wrong is to suppress it so that it is get second hand. The Public Pulse Remembered Here Editor Journal and Guide, Sir:—To the older graduates and former students of Norfolk Mission College, the following announcement, copied from The Christian Union Herald, comes as a most pleasant surprise: "Rev.

Public Health Service.) THE REMEDIES 1. Educational Measures The first three articles of this series recounted the history and distribution of the venereal diseases and pointed out their cost in health and wealth. Having noted the facts the question arises what can be done to reduce this economic burden and lessen the strain which these diseases place upon individual, family and social welfare. The measures which are being employed in this effort may for convenience be divided into three parts—educational, legal and medical. This article presents the educational measures, the others being reserved for subsequent articles. The aim of educational measures is to arouse the individual and the community to the seriousness of the problem by emphasizing the following facts: That syphilis and gonorrhea are communicable germ diseases and dangerous to the public health; That persons having acquired them should place themselves under thorough, reputable, and continued treatment; That under such treatment cure is possible; That every person who has been exposed should seek medical treatment; That the diseases are spread principally through prostitution and illicit sex conduct; That many persons, however, acquire these diseases innocently through the carelessness, indifference, or viciousness of persons already infected, and, for this reason, such indifferent persons should be controlled even to the extent of quarantine, if necessary; That the only certain prevention is for everyone to limit sex relations to those sanctioned by law and morals. The presentation of these facts varies, of course, with the age and particular interest or function of the various groups and institutions participating with the official agencies in this educational effort. Among such groups and institutions may be mentioned civic clubs, women's organizations, welfare societies, the schools and churches, industrial organizations. The Federal, State and local health departments in conveying this information to the general public utilize such facilities as: Pamphlets books, placards, lectures, motion pictures, exhibits and stereopticon slides. Some of the more important educational materials which the United States makes available for use in its cooperative work with the State health departments are: "The Science of Life"—a 12 reel motion picture. "Keeping Fit"—an exhibit for boys. "Youth and Life"—an exhibit for girls. "The Venereal Disease Menace"—an exhibit for adults. Venereal Disease Information—a publication for social workers and kindred groups. A series of pamphlets: Set A—for young men. Set B—for officials and the legal public Set E—for girls and young women. Set E—for educators. Set F—for all cases These pamphlets, as well as the other materials mentioned, may be obtained from the State boards of health or from the United States Public Health Service, Washington, D. C. The Poet's Corner A Meditation The leaves that dance upon the trees, The "sweet william" sporting in breeze; Seem outward signs to me Of an inward quality; A hidden grace, unfathomed strength Spurring me to my journey's length, Past springtime's youth and summer's age At last to life's appointed stage, There to view its course begun And its winding task now done— Let me think the leaves dance not in vain; That for some true cause my pain— That the flowers' beauty is not lost. And the going out of life must Be but entrance thru death to the goal Where blossom dream-flowers for the soul. Portsmouth, Va. —W. ALFRED WILKINS Downington School Finals Show Progress For The Institution Downington, Pa.—The 19th annual commencement of the Downington Industrial School, Downington, Pa., occurred on Thursday, May 28th. Addresses were delivered by Senator T. Larry Eyre, former president pro tempore of the State Senate by Hon. J. C. Asbury, and by Rev. Roy T. Brumbaugh, of Coatesville; Dr. H. Crampton of the State Department of Health and member of the Board of Trustees awarded the diplomas. The school chorus rendered pleasing selections. About $75,000 in prizes was distributed to students because of proficiency in their trades, cleanliness in their dormitory rooms, and improvement in the use of the English language. Great interest was manifested in the exhibits in the various departments. In the automobile mechanics shop the boys had two cars which they rebuilt; in the iron work there were many useful and ornamental articles which had been made; in carpentry there were chats showing the projects accomplished during the year. The boys have constructed a bank counter and have made numerous repairs to the rooms and the buildings. The exhibit of the work in home economics was exceptionally good. Two large class rooms were needed to hold it—the walls and tables being filled. The commercial value of the articles ran as high as $50. A large number of friends were gained for the school by this commendable exhibit. The Board of Trustees in their annual meeting expressed great satisfaction in the progress of the school. Unanimous endorsement was given to the present administration. FENTRESS Fentress, Va.—Services at the Weeping Mary Church were well attended last Sunday.
