HUNDREDS ATTEND ANNUAL SESSION OF VIRGINIA PYTHIANS Approximately 250 Delegates From Every Section of Virginia In Three Day Session In Portsmouth. The annual sessions of the Grand Lodge of Virginia Knights of Pythias and the Grand Court of Caliente, held at the Zion Baptist Church, Green street, Portsmouth, beginning at 9 o'clock a.m., Tuesday morning were described as being among the most successful in the long history of these widely known fraternal organizations. The morning meetings of the Grand Lodge and the Grand Court were of a business nature. The noon session Tuesday was devoted to welcome addresses from representatives of various groups in Portsmouth and responses to these beauty welcome speeches by representatives of the two convening organizations. In all, there were four welcomes and as many responses. Attorney George H. Walker in according a welcome on behalf of the citizens, took occasion to praise the broad vision of the Pythias lodge. He mentioned also the fact that white New York responded to the call for soldiers in the recent war with the famous the Sh Illinois Regiment, and Illinois Virginia turned to the unidentified ranks of the Pythias lodge for her Negro soldiers. In responding to the welcome accorded on the citizens' behalf, the Grand Chancellor, Mr. W. B. F. Crowell of Reanoke, enlarged on this idea, saying, "none looked down the barrel of an American life with more courage with more bravery and devotion than did the soldiers from the uniform ranks of Telling from this idea, Mr. Crowell declared: "Peace and harmony shall and must prevail in this session." In a brief but eloquent address if welcome on behalf of the business and professional men of Portsmouth, Lawyer Thomas H. Reid turned over to the delegates all the privileges of the city. To this welcome the "nationally (Continued on Page Three) NOT LAWYERS WIN OVER PASTORS IN LIQUOR QUESTION DEBATE LAWYERS WIN OVER PASTORS IN LIQUOR QUESTION DEBATE Judges Award Decision To Affirmatives In Topic, "Resolved That Prohibition Is A Failure. VICTORY GAINED BY A CLOSE MARGIN Resolved: "That Prohibition Is A Failure," was the question debated at the Second Calvary Baptist Church Friday night, of last week in which the affirmatives, attorneys D. H. Edwards and W. H. Davis won over the negatives, Revs. C. M. Long and C. P. Madison points 6-5. At the outset the debate was hotly contested by both sides with the affirmative gradually forging ahead. The points of the affirmative were: Prohibition is a failure, because it is predicated on a law that is a falsehood—the Volkstadt Act, which says in part that one half of one per cent alcohol in any beverage is intoxicating, and any alcohol will never observe the enactment; Prohibition is a failure, because its enactment has caused the hars and distilleries to be removed from restricted districts to homes in respectable communities. The affirmative alluded to the prevalence of bootlegging in the cities of the country. Prohibition is also a failure they asserted, because it has made it possible for children to obtain liquor, whereas, before the passing of the law, no bartender would sell whiskey to minors, but today a bootlegger will sell his alcohol to anybody, even the public. Prohibition is a failure the affirmative declared because it has destroyed the sanctity of the home and violated the American Constitution, in that it lays the home of every citizen open to search and seizure without due process of law which right was guaranteed to the citizens before the prohibition law became effective, but which right at this time is thrown to the wind at anytime a prohibition agent may see fit to invade the sanctity of your home under the pretended search for liquor; prohibition is also a failure, because it has taken the making of the trained scientists and chemists and placed it into the hands of the untrained and irresistible who care naught for the safety and moral salvation of the community. The first and fourth points were forcefully stressed by Atty. Davis and the second, third and fifth points were carried by Atty. Edwards. The attack of the affirmative wore out by Atty. Edwards with his colleague coming up with reinforcements which enabled them to nose out over their opponents. Important Negative Points The important points advanced by the negative were: Prohibition is a success, because more money has been given to endowment during the reign of the law than before its enactment; prohibition is a success because before its approach the jails in the West were crowded but now a number of them are for rent and the security has been minimized. Prohibition is a success, because there are less drunks than before the law was passed. Atty. D. H. Edwards in a rebuttal, especially to the latter point assayed to prove, in spite of the fact that there are less drunks in evidence now that does not mean that liquor traffic has decreased to any appreciable extent and even it there are less drunks in evidence, there are more drinkers and all of the drinkers who are not seen on the streets or in the drunk are not in the company and the direct result of drinker's various death dealing, diacritical concessions handed out by the bootleggers. The debate aroused a great deal of interest and a large crowd attended the affair. The judges were: Dr. R. J. Brown, Messrs. Charlie Brown, W. H. Tyler, Alexander Gregory and John Williams. Mr. S. B. Noble was master of ceremonies. How true it is that people "run" into debt and then try to "crawl" out. It's a great life if you don't weaken—but if you weaken just a little bit—Oh, Boy, it's a greater life. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY. JUNE 20, 1925 Prominent Richmond Artist MRS. J.

SEVERAL GRADUATES WIN SCHOLARSHIPS Graduating exercises of the Booker T. Washington High school were held in the school auditorium Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. Diplomas were awarded 93 young men and women. The class of 1925 consisted of 101 graduates, 8 of whom finished at the mid-year term. The commencement address was delivered by Dr. J. A. Cotton, of Henderson Normal and Industrial School, Henderson, N. C. Dr. Cotton used the occasion to point the class to higher education. He had particular stress on the economic value of a college training and its influence in developing leadership. Dr. Cotton cited statistics recently compiled on the relative earning capacity of high school and college trained groups and those whose academic education ended with the grades. These statistics show, said he, that the earning capacity of the average high graduate was thirty times that of the average grade pupil; the earning capacity of the average normal, school, graduate was 11 times that of the average grade student and the earning cu SUBSCRIPTION FAKER AT WORK AGAIN SUBSCRIPTION FAKER AT WORK AGAIN A "tall brown skin" man is a gain working Norfolk people for subscriptions to the Journal and Guide, without authority from this paper. He is an imposter and the public is warned against paying him any money, as the subscriptions he writes are not reported to this office. This man is doubtless the same faker that victimized numerous Norfolk people several months ago and later operated the same scheme in Newport News, Philadelphia, New York and other cities, where he posed as agent for other papers. All bona fide subscription or circulation agents for the Journal and Guide bear necessary credentials, and it is unsafe to do business with any one representing himself as an agent without proper authority. A suitable reward will be paid for information leading to the arrest and conviction of this man. The Guide Publishing Co., SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR Dr. Charles S.

BROWN Parents Think Missing Child Is Kidnapped Little Henry Fleming, age 7, who lived with his parents at 1210 Church street, is believed by them to have been kidnapped.

During the more once did the large audience re there the slightest indication the minister. Dr. Morris, appearing statuesquely with a massive growth of white hair adorning his large scalp, venerable in experience and admittedly profound in intellect and with an eloquence that has been achained from one end of the country to the other unloosed a verbal barrage against evolution and its exponentism. Posting array of biblical quotations, writing arrays from scientific writings on the subject and stepping lightly from one end of the large platform to the other with the Bible clasped to his bosom he successfully dramatized the situation in a way that held the audience wholly within his eloquence Defines Evolution Evolution as it is generally understood he briefly defined. From a protoplasm or one-celled life to a form of life a stage higher and on thru numerous stages covering countless years to his present form has been the process of man's formation from his advent on earth is the claim made by evolutionists, Dr. Morris explained. Each form of higher life that man assumed was the direct result of the struggle between present state represents the inexorable working of the law of the survival of the fittest," is the basis of evolution, he added. Step by step Dr. Morris assailed this theory and advanced passages from the scriptures in support of his contentions. Time and again he would appeal to the common sense of his hearers, exclaiming during one dramatic moment, "I (Continued on Page Three) 7 CENTS At All News Stands and By Carriers ION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR AKE-UP COURT ENDS FIGHT BETWEEN MASONS OFTIDEWATERCITIES Judge Ousts Alleged Usurpers Of Silver Square Lodge Of Hampton and Orders Return Of Paraphernalia. APPEAL TO SUPREME COURT MAY FOLLW Newport News, Va.—The fight between the colored Masons of Tidewater Virginia came to an end in the Circuit Court here Thursday, when Judge C. Vernon Spratley entered an order directing that Isaac Johnson, Markus W.ith, and Paul W. Williams, "alleged squares, and usurpers of Silver Square Lodge No. 129, A. F. and A. M. of Hampton" return to A. F. Cannady, treasurer of the lodge, and "legal trustee" the jewels and paraphernalia belonging to Silver Square now held by the "usurpers." The court had previously directed that the monies of the Lodge be turned over to the said A. F. Cannady and the new order completely routs Smith, Williams and Johnson from holding the jewels; paraphernalia or any of the property of Silver Square Lodge. The case was argued for aore Judge Scales to bounce attorneys Thos. L. Glater, J. Thomas, Newsome and -eastern Charley C. Berkley, representing Cannady and the Lodge, and John Weymouth, A. W. E. Bassette Jr., and Louis Wendenburg for the alleged "trustees and usurpers." The fight has grown out of the action of the Grand Lodge of Virginia in requiring the Mason members of the colored Masonic order to join a beneficial branch of the Masons. The legal fight among the colored Masons has created deep interest with the members of the order. Dr. Caesar Bassette of this city is a member of the Grand Lodge staff of officers and all of the men in the controversy are prominent colored ment.

Big Shake-Up In (Continued from Page One) should be made first of the Academic Departments to be followed by a survey of the departments of the School of Medicine. after a thorough-going study of the Academic Departments of the University, Doctor Leonard appeared in person and submitted a and complete report, and certain recommendations embodying following: That the University has not the staff nor the financial resources to achieve fully the distinctive purpose of the Junior College; namely, to assist young men and women to determine upon the senior college or professional school best adapted to their interests and abilities. "No institution has discovered how to do this; years of experimentation and research will be necessary. At the start, Howard University would have to have available at least $15,000 a year for the employment of psychologists, case workers, research workers, etc., in order to achieve this end. At the present time, the Junior College is primarily a feeder for the School of Liberal Arts and it probably would remain so, if the present organization were perpetuated. (This recommendation was adopted.)" "2. That a College of Liberal Arts replace the School of Liberal Arts." (This recommendation was approved). "3. Doctor Leonard also recommended that the work of the School of Commerce and Finance be merged with the College of Liberal Arts." "4. That a College of Education replace the School of Education. "5. That, a College of Applied Science replace the School of Applied Science, and that its program is limited to engineering and architecture. "6. That, every encouragement be given to the Dean and faculty of the School of Law in the development of the School so that it may be accredited by the Association of American Law Schools. The Of American Lay Schools. "7. That, encouragement be given to the further development of the School of Music as a professional school, and there be a Department of Music Education in the College of Education for the training of teachers of music."

Brown, as he master of ceremonies, Mr. Fheedore Nash, described him, revered very forcefully. He referred to his seven years residence in Portsmouth during his early manhood as seven of the happiest years of his life. During his response he took occasion to praise the self-effacing efforts of the late Grand Chancellor, Mr. W. H. Reid of Portsmouth, o place the Grand Lodge in its sightful place among the lodges of the State. In addition to this, he laborated upon the educating effect of such organizations along the lines of government and self-administration. Lawyer Brown spoke hopefully for what he termed he "New Nerro." The final two welcome addresses and responses were very interesting. Mr. John T. Fisher spoke in behalf of the local lodges, and to his welcome Atty. John W. White esponded. Mrs. Manie E.

Here the speaker was referring to the case of the young professor of Dayton, Teun, who is soon to be tried for teaching evolution in the high school in violation of the State law. Dr. Morris briefly alluded to this case in the opening of his sermon. Huxley had become so thoroughly convinced that life had its origin in the protoplasm that he went so far as to declare that this protoplasm could be found in the ocean's bed. Acting on this suggestion the United States Government sent out an expedition of engineers and scientists to drag the bottom of the ocean in quest of the primitive form of man-life, said the speaker. Eloquently he exclaimed, "No protoplasm was found—not even a wiggletail." This discovery or failure of discovery caused Huxley to recant his theory that life had its origin in the sea's bed and admit that he had been in error, the speaker explained.

Will Wills Make Good? Here, I am saying again that Harry Wills must put Charley Weintower away in order to remain in the race as a heavyweight title contender. In spite of the fact that the match is a bone-head one, he must make the best of it possible. Wills cannot toy around with Weintower as he did with Firpo and Madden and come back with the alibi of what he could have done if he had felt disposed to. It was said that Wills felt that he could not take the chance of having his hands all mussed up trying to crack the dome of Bartley Madden and those at the ringside of the Firpo fight stated that Wills pulled his punches and would not extend himself in trying to put the big beef of the Argentine away. Such after remarks in connection with the coming fight will not suffice as a reason for not battering Weintower to the resin covered ring. I'm saying again that Harry Wills must put order to remain in the race as a heavyweight of the fact that the match is a bone-heat of it possible. Wills cannot toy around with Firpo and Madden and come back with what have done if he had felt disposed to it. That he could not take the chance of having trying to crack the dome of Bartley Madden of the Firpo fight stated that Wills pull out to extend himself in trying to put the big bang. Such after remarks in connection with suffice as a reason for not battering Weiner has proved to the world that he wanted to do the surprise of most of the critics. To be up against if he had lost the fight or that decisively. There were no pulled punches from gong to gong. This is what Wills does not win the fight, he would not have any merely won the decision and even by winning the gain. He the decision and even by winning Bartley Madden.

I give Wills and if it goes longer than that most of those discipline in their chairs and prepare to sit the rounds as per schedule. Tunney has proved to the world that he wanted to whip Gibbons and did it to the surprise of most of the critics. Tunney realized what he would be up against if he had lost the fight or winning and not doing that decisively. There were no pulled punches. He was after his man from gong to gong. This is what Wills must do. He must go after the Newark Adonis, both hammer and tongs and not let up until his man is forced to take a dive. If Wills does not win the fight, he would not have anymore to lose than if he merely won the decision and even by winning decisively he has very little to gain. He had more to gain by stopping Dead Pan Louie and Bartley Madden. Those matches took a great deal from the Patient Senegambian Stevedore, so far as reputation is concerned and reputation means a great deal in the padded mitt circle. Reputation is not always what you really are but what others think you are. Surely Wills' reputation as a man mauler has not been helped by such nonsensical actions in the last two fights. It is generally believed that Wills could have at least knocked out Firpo, but what's the good of all that. There are the hard believers who you have to make know these things and they comprise the bulk of the spoon followers. Things that require physical action to be proved can never hope to be verified through mere words. Wills has had only a few fights scattered over a period of quite a few years and why. That most of us do not know definitely. The last few men of any note that have been sent to the floor by Wills are Fred-Fulton and Kid Norfolk and that was not a match. Wills had twenty-five or more pounds on his scrappy little opponent. In spite of all the above ballyboo, this column has predicted a Wills victory and it still adheres to its prediction. I have not, or any other sane person for that matter, the slightest idea of Wills losing to the Hungarian fighter, but the thing that's troubling us is, will he go in the ring and do his stuff like he means it. I give Wills six rounds to end the fight and if it goes longer than that most of those on the scene of battle will recline in their chairs and prepare to sit through the entire fifteen rounds as per schedule.

The scrap was a regular slugfest with both men giving and taking until Langford's mighty right found its mark and Al kissed the canvass.

He continued to fight as hard as ever until that same right broke through again and dropped him for keeps. Some gag! What? Battling Siki And Some Monkey Business Battling Siki, the rampageous Senegambian padded mitt thumper has added monkey business to his troubles. Siki was enroute to Concy Island with a pet monkey of his, but his monkeyship objected to the trip and bolted, finally, wending its way down the New York subway and there became lost. The Senegalese posted a reward for the return of his little playmate and the thing was soon found by subway employees and restored to its owner. Battling Siki has begun training at MacLevy's gym in Coney Island and will be in condition to battle in about two weeks. Siki's manager has received several offers for the services of his charge and expects to have him in action ere long. Bob Levy stated, in spite of the fact that Siki had lost his monkey in the subway, the Senegalese demon would be ready to take on any heavyweight or light heavyweight in the world, preferably Jack Dempsey or Paul Berlenbach. And in regards to the first mentioned former fighter—try and get him. If Siki can hook up with Dempsey it will more than anyone else has been able to do in quite a while. Then, you never can tell. Dempsey might tie up with Siki before taking on any of the serious contenders who are sure to give the former heavyweight champion trouble. It would be an easy matter for Dempsey to dispose of Siki. He could take on Siki and rest up for another three or four years with the title intact and shut the mouths of the public at the same time—MAY BE.

Gene Tunney and Harry Wills are now the two leading heavyweight contenders for the world's title and there are probabilities of a match between these two in order to name a successor to Dempsey who will never fight again in a bout of any moment according to the betting odds which are 2 to1. Wills has been one of the leading contenders for about five years, whereas Tunney only came to the fore by defending Tommy Gibbons, but at the same time Wills stands more chances of being chased out of the race than Tunney. The latter has disposed of his man and has no other fight between now and the coming clash between Wills and Charley Weintert, which it is stated above what Wills must do in order to survive. A tilt between Harry Wills and Gene Tunney will be an attraction of the year and will no doubt draw a record gate. Good Ole Harry The proposed elevation of Harry Wills to the heavyweight championship will no doubt be greeted with much pleasure by a great number of the followers of the game. I am quite sure it will also shock some of the unbelievers who have little faith in the Stevedore.

Well, we have a new light heavyweight champion and let us hope that he will feel more inclined to give the thumping racket a little more action than the deposed champ, Micheal McTigue, the touted clever Irishman. A number of the critics gave Mr. McTigue the edge over Sock 'em Paul on account of his cleverness. We must remember that cleverness gets the inactive ones no where—but a place on the canvass—sometimes they are lucky enough to escape that. This column voted Mr. McTigue not a chance to sock Mon Herr Berlenbach to the land of nod. Even if Paulie is a rough going baby with little science, he smothered the wiry Irishman. 1859 Founder's Week 1859 As a tribute to our founder, all our stores will feature unusual buying opportunities this week!

"After getting inside that place," he said, "why one does not know it is summer time." In keeping with its policy of making the Attucks all that such a place of amusement should be the new management has installed, along with other improvements such as a new silver screen and modern projection machines which entirely eliminate eyestrain, a ventilating system which is incomparable and makes attending the pictures at the Attueks a genuine pleasure even in the most sultry weather.

WILLS AND WEINERT CLASH JULY 2ND WILLS AND WEINERT CLASH JULY 2ND (Special to Journal and Guide) New York, June 18—Providing ingrowing toe nails do not cause Mickey Walker, who meets Harry Greb in a fifteen inning bout, any more hospital fees, we are slated to see our own Harry Wills, foremost contender for the world's heavyweight crown which Dempsey keeps snug in a safe-deposit box at the Corn Exchange Bank, entertain Charley Weinert with a fifteen course dinner consisting of right uppercerts and left hookworms, at the Polo Grounds on July second, according to official reports from Stoneham, president of the grounds and Tugazy, promoter. Now that final arrangements have been made for the bouts, we are looking forward to seeing Har- NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE ry pass another milestone in his seemingly endless race for championship honors. We wonder if this bout will put him any nearer his goal. Wills is going down to Southampton on Bill Jones' ranch where he trained for his commemorable fight, with the Wild Bull of the Pampas. The stevedore pugilist reigns favorite and we don't fear a bit to say that the white lad will do well to last ten rounds. Beside the Walker-Greb affair, negotiations for a preliminary between Jimmy Slattery and Jack Delaney are near completion. These combinations will formulate an interesting and important card. T. W. Young By EDGAR D. Six weeks have urged the neophyte book, Tilden's "Mat Spin of the Ball," racket, a box of balls, and to start on learning to playing the literature, rules and practice first-class equipment the stone-wall built Dr. Chas. S. Morris Refutes Evolution Continued From Page 3 Continued From Page 3 ously, he explained, there has been one piliable exception to this law. It is the mule, the speaker went on, but the mule was not made by God. He was made by man, because man did make him in violation of God's plan. God cursed the mule with sterility. "That animal is without the pride of ancestry or the hope of postity. Thus far, no further, shell go," sayeth God. Dr. Morris paused and exclaimed. "Man made mule and mule has been giving man trouble ever since," he whimsically said; his remarks causing a ripple of laughter through the audience. Asks Why Did It Cease? The speaker pointedly asked: If the evolution of man from monkey or baboon continued for millions of years, why does it become ashamed and cease to go on while man is here and capable to watch it? Turning to the white section of his hearers, he said: "You proud Virginians with your chivalrous ancestry, you used to claim uncles with us, but now you are claiming brother with the ape." More laughter followed this remark. "Not only is evolution unscientific, unproved and contrary to commonsense, but it cannot be proved. But the Bible accounts for it all. God made man in a special way," he said. The speaker explained that there are at present three explorations going on in various sections of the world in search of the "missing link." Why don't they wait until the "missing link" is found before claiming the truth of evolution, he asked. Starting with Adam, then Cain and Abel, Dr. Morris explained that thru nine chapters of the Bible the story of man is chronologically related and with not a "missing link." Six weeks have passed since we urged the neophytes to buy a rule book, Tilden's "Match Play and the Spin of the Ball," a fifteen-play racket, a box of championship balls, and to start concentrating on learning to play tennis, by reading the literature, memorizing the rules and practicing daily with first-class equipment, up against the stone-wall building, the gymnasium brie-a-bra on the handball board and on the tennis court with an intelligent normal friend who desired to improve his game and not to brag all over town what his "fish" was yesterday afternoon. If you have been at your game for a month or so as well as some winter training, with the arrival of tournament schedules, it is time to change the emphasis to start on a new line of attack. Before I go further however, it is well to state that there are perhaps not over a dozen colored players in America who should not keep right on playing I mean practising to master their stroke perfection for the rest of the season, giving little attention to beating either your friends, or winning tournaments. If you do not understand what is meant by this dictum, I again admonish you to read up and find out what are the first principles. No one who cannot stand the gaff and often times the humiliation of being Trounced by those whom you formerly heat up, just resign yourself to mediocrity. It is not yours to scale the heights or experience the exhilaration of perfecting timing the fast moving ball and hitting it waist-high with a beautifully executed full arm half-circle swing right in the center of the racket to where your opponent ought to be; but is not! You can only improve that game that has stood in one place for five or six years by thoughtful, forced, studious, methodical practicing of one shot over and again and done as the books say; whether you win at first or lose all the time, you undoubtedly must of necessity pay $1 Gets the Goods 1 DOWN GETS THE GOODS TENNIS that price for mastery. It is a slow process, some times painful but you will never really play and enjoy the modern captivating game of tennis if you do not learn its art and science, and this cannot be without the foundation of the game. That is that, but, playing to beat your opponent is something else again. You go into a tournament to win. There are successful tactics and those that fail. Look up the word "strategy" in Websters' Unabridged Dictionary. I mean it. Then read Mr. Richards' book on geometry taught him the angling of his volleys. Go and look through the several tennis books in the library and note the chapters on the psychology of tennis, as illustrated in the analysis of your opponent's mental reaction to the shots you almost returned. This brain work will probably be anathema to most of our dilatory and self-satisfied tennis "mutts", but take it or continue to disgrace our traditional line of honest-to-goodness athletes of international known with sorry exhibitions of pretty lady-like put ball. In New York this week, we will see Smith, Gomez, Johnson and Reginald Weir the most promising scientific fourteen-year-old in America action at the first tournament on E. and S. Courts, at 146th street, between Seventh and Eighth avenues. Next week at Wilberforce, Oz, at the Midwetten, Ted Thompson, Dr. Williams, Richard Hadlin, Simons and Clark will show their wares. We will be able in about another week to pick the leaders for the title honors in 1925.

Mary Philbin and Norman Kerry In * 6“ 0 ” FIFTH AVENUE MODELS” Comedy for the Kids—“W HAT’S NEXT” ae Coming—THUNDERING HERD—Coming | Press reports flashed the start- ing but not altogether unexpected news to the world Saturday even- ‘ing that Dehart Hubbard, brilliant member of the University of Mich- /igan track team, Olympic champion and joint holder of the century dash record and numerous and va- rious other track and field records, had careened through space for a distance of 25 feet 10 and 7-8 in- ches, establishing a most. xemark- able record which is destined tobe exceeded only by Hubbard himself. In addition to this, Hubbard proved himself the leading college sprinter in Amerien by running to a new collegiate mect record of 9 8-10 seconds, He did these feats in Chicago at the National Collegiate meet last Saturday. ‘This was the tenth time that De- hart had hurtled himself across the loam of a jumping pit for a dis- tance greater than 25 feet. In his great curcer, Hubbard has thus ¢s- ‘tablished himself as the premier ‘atalete of several events: the broad jump, for which he holds the ‘world’s record; the hop step and jump, for which he holds the col- - : wenpenare TATTeN AT. AA Cling Sarena —e ee PAGE FIVE’, legiate record; the century dash, in which he is a joint holder of the vor record of 9 and 3-5 see. onds; the fifty and sixty yards dashes records he is a joint holder of; as a hurdler he has few peers and as an athlete of attainments which few others can challenge he stands alone. His feat was stamped as. the most outstanding of the meet. In deed, it may easily rival any of the athletic feats of the past rec | ord-brealting year in the opinion of many experts. "Three men only have been ered ited with a record exceeding 01 reaching 25 feet. Ned Gourdin Harvard athlete, several years ago during « Yale-Harvard vs Oxfor Cambridge mect, set a mark of 25 |feet 3 inches. This broke a_ree- ord that has existed for many years. At that time it was pre- dicted that this record of 25 feet 3 inches would stand for years te come. Gourdin is a Negro. Then came Legendre's jump. in ‘the Olympic Pentathlon, of 25 feet G inches, which most’ competent critics have intimated was rather a fiuke jump, because Legendre had never gone 25 feet before. Now Hubbard proves consistency is a jewel, jumping over 25 feet ten times in actual competition, winding up his athletic career as a student at Michigan with a sensa- tional jump record. This is a glorious climax of a meteoric, ree- ord-breaking journey thru differ- ent track and field events. Hubbard, however, an Olympic, national, collegiate, and world ree- ord holder and champion was not given the lesser but deserved hono of being captain of his college team "On tne other hand there is Charles Drew of Amherst, elected captain without a dissenting vote. —P.

Between 2,000 and 2,500 people ranging from parents to tiny tots crowded into the City Armory Wednesday night and withstood the almost sweltering heat for two hours while St. Joseph's Catholic School's elementary department conducted graduating exercise as unmistakable a most brilliant setting. A legacy of young girls costumed in attractive and vani-colored attire, and boys and young men performed with captivating excellence that kept the vast audience in almost complete forgetfulness of the heat. Tiny folks opened the program with a singing act that was greeted with tears of laughter. A playlet filled with comedy, featuring songs, and dances was carried out with a co-ordination that seemed perfect. The Spanish dance featured by young girls and the country dance were acts well worth the witnessing. The "Midshipmate," in which the young men were featured in middy attire and drill was all that could be asked. St. Joseph's Band rendered the music, and there was never a dull moment throughout the evening.

The thirty days' building drive was closed last Sunday night. This drive, was led by the sixteen officers of the church who reported as follows: Services were well attended al day from the sunrise prayer meeting throughout the evening services. Rev, Johnson preached a powerful sermon at the morning hour and administered the Lord's Sunday at 3:30 and preached the 50th anniversary sermon of the Hoc Carriers and Common Laborers Union No. 370 at 8 p. m. There were two additions during the day. The new building is progressing rapidly and the entire community is anxiously awaiting its completion and dedication. Pastor Bowling Answers Queries Several questions were, put to the pastor of the First Baptist Church this week. His replies were not only interesting but might prove helpful to other pastors and churches. Asked as to why the crowds continued to flock to his church in spite of the warm weather, he said the secret was in short, spicy sermons, and services no longer than an hour or an hour and a half at most. He said that the secret of his being able to preach to such a heterogeneous audience Sunday after Sunday lay in the arrangement of the auditorium. "We have," said Rev. Hawley, "a large and comfortable gallery from every part which the speaker can easily be seen as from the lower floor. Children and the younger people sit up there and so permit the older worshipers complete quiet and freedom from interruption during the services." Asked as to how it was that due to careful business foresight supplied by the business men or his finance committee and trustee board and to the loyalty of his membership, "For example," said he, "I am to present to the congregation this Sunday a money order from a member now in Honolulu, Hawaii, away out in the Pacific Ocean." He paid high tribute also to the generosity of the many friends, white and colored, and of every Denomination. Old Brown's A. M. E. Installs Organ parishioners of L. E.

"It is a pleasure to pastor the old historic Brown's A. M. E. Church." Electric Sirens for submarines have been invented in Sweden. Alabama has not had a lynching in two years. THE MUSEUM OF THE ARTS The First Baptist Church, Norfolk, was organized July 1800 and all during the years of its existence, the guiding principle has been "Serving Christ thru serving the Community." The first church building was a crude structure but larger and more attractive buildings have been erected as the needs warranted. In 1863 the church of fiefs granted permission to some Yankee teachers to open a public school for colored people in the church building. This was the first public school for our group opened in Norfolk. In 1890 Dr. R. H. Bowling sr., then a recent graduate of Hampton accepted the pastorate of the church and immediately opened its doors for community welfare activities. When the congregation had outgrown the building then in use, he proceeded to tear down and build the present spacious and attractive structure, one of the most magnificent church edifices in the country. This marked the climax of Dr. Bowling's twenty-three years of constructive labors. Then in 1914 when Rev. R. H. Bowling jr., was prevailed upon to accept the pastorate of the church, to succeed his illustrious father, he followed the way blazed by his father and opened the doors of the church wider for community usage. He put on a program of institutional church work, with a paid staff of five workers. The efficient and helpful way this community service has been carried on has won the esteem and hearty approval of both the loyal congregation and community. The Day Nursery, the Free Employment Bureau, the Kindergarten and the Home for the Aged have certainly, along with the playgrounds, ingratiated the church into the heart of the community. To the credit of the big hearted pastor and loyal membership, it must be said, that they not only started this social Old Dominion Line The All-Water Route TO- NEW YORK New Steamships George Washington and Robert E.

See'y. service program, but have continuously kept it going with increased momentum with no idea of depriving the community of this valuable service which is shared and appreciated by both white and colored. At the same time the church has not lost its spiritual influence but rather this has been enlarged and greatly strengthened for scarcely a Sunday passes without someone unites with the church by baptism or Christian experience. New friends are constantly being added to the list of donors who see the need of such a church program—one of service. The Lord has blessed the church in such a marvelous way that its interest in the State work of education and missions is kept alive in a very commendable way. Truly this is a church whose congregation with its pastor have a vision of the Christ and are working the vision out in practical helpfulness. A spirit of harmony prevails and the desire to do big things for the Master is evident everywhere. Besides the large number of teachers, preachers, lawyers and doctors along with business men and women this church has furnished the world with both Home and Foreign Missionaries. It follows then as a natural sequence, that after an institution has served a community so efficiently for a period of 125 years, meeting and administering to the every need, whether physical or spiritual, that the friends and beneficiaries should pause with grateful hearts and celebrate in a befitting manner its 125th anniversary. 1.

A. A. C. P., and a pundert from Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the day of War, during the period of America's participa the World War. Scott in a letter to the Herald-Tribune reviews the war record of Negro soldiers as given in official cita- commanding officers. Dr. Scott said: preserve that colored officers are not to be depended upon and that colored soldiers will not fight under colored officers. The record made by colored regiments in France, including those brigaded with the French, will stand the acid test of investigation and technical criticism. Among such troops were not only the Old Fifteenth of New York, the Eighth Illinois, the First Separate Battalion of the District of Columbia, but also the 373rd Infantry, the 372nd, and the units of the 92nd Division, and the 93rd Division. Quotes From Pershing's Speech Over against the charges of General Bullard, of Youngsboro Alabama, I wish once again to place a statement of General Pershing, being an address delivered by him to assembled units of the 92nd Division, which General Bullard assails, at Le Mans, France January 28, 1919: "I want you officers and soldiers of the 92nd Division to know that the 92nd Division stands second to none in the record you have made since your arrival in France. I am proud of the part you have played in the great conflict which ended on the 11th of November, yet you have only done what the American people expected you to do and you have measured up to every expection of the Commander-in-Chief. I realize that you did not get into the game as early as some of the other units, but since you took over your first sector you have acquitted yourselves with credit, and I believe that if the armistice had not become effective on the 11th day of November, the 92nd would have still further distinguished itself. I commend the 92nd Division for its achieve since 1915, and, among others, implicated Presidents Wilson Harding and Secretaries of State Bryan and Lansing and General Smedley D. Butler, whose regime, as head of the marines stationed in that country, he described as highly imperialistic. Dr. Kelsey Rebukes Edtiori. All this was too much for Dr. Kelsey, who rebuked Mr. Randolph in no uncertain terms when it came his turn to speak. "Any man who makes such statements on the same platform with me without supporting them with facts is to be classed as a contemptible skunk," said Dr. Kelsey. "I can prove them all right," said Mr. Randolph, but he made no effort to do so. At this juncture there was a pronounced stir among the members of the audience, and Dr. Holmes chairman of the meeting, saw that something should be done and that promptly. He called upon Dr. Kelsey to apologize for calling a fellow-speaker "such a name." This Dr. Kelsey did quite graciously, but it was plain to be seen that he still was very much riled. This became more and more evident as he continued with his address, the subject of which was "A Visit to Haiti." He denied any great mismanagement or exploiting by United States officials, but did admit that mistakes had been made. He held that this was only natural and that all high officials erred now and then. In concluding his address, Dr. Kelsey said that unsupported statements such as the previous speaker had made in regard to Haiti "made his blood boil." Tell Him to "Let It Boil" "Let it boil," called out a member of the audience. Dr. Holmes again sought to spread oil on the troubled waters, but this time was unsuccessful. "I am very sorry," he said, "that any personal feelings have entered into this discussion."

"As long as there have been engraved in the archives of the French military establish h m n t such unequivocal expressions of appreciation and glory as the following, they can afford to permit even so high an officer as General Bullard to take a fling at their courage and their sacrifices: Quotes From Gen. Duplessis "The 157th, 161st and the 2nd Moroccan Divisions are leaving the Army Corps. The General commanding the 10th Army Corps addressed to them his most sincere thanks and his warmest congratulations for the glorious success achieved by their admirable ardour and their indomitable tenacity. He salut · the brave American Regiments who have rivaled in intrepidity their French comrades. "He cannot recount here the feats which have been performed for every one of the days of that victorious journey. They are inscribed on the conquered grounds, materialized by the trophies taken from the enemy, and engraved in the heart of the chief who bows before the troops and salutes them profoundly." "GEN. GARNIER DUPLESSIS, Commanding the 9th Army Corps" "In transmitting this order to the several regiments comprising the Division, General Goybet reviewed the exploits of the division in the following order: "In transmitting to you with legitimate pride the thanks and congratulations of the General Garnier Duplessis, allow me, my dear friends of all ranks, Americans and French, to thank you from the bottom of my heart as a chief and a soldier, for the expressions of gratitude for the glory which you have lent our good 157th Division. I had full confidence in you, but you have surpassed my hopes. "During these nine days of hard fighting you have progressed nine kilometers through powerful organized defenses, taken nearly 600 prisoners, 15 guns of different calibres, 20 minewearers, and nearly 150 machine guns, secured an enormous amount of engineering material, an important supply of artillery ammunition, brought down by your fire three enemy aeroplanes.

(By Preston News Service) Washington, D. C., June 18—According to an announcement made by an official of the U. S. Navy Department Secretary Wilbur has indicated that he might give his personal attention to questions which have arisen concerning the administration of the Virgin Islands as a result of representations made to him by the Civil Liberties' Union which directed charges against the American Judge and the Governor of the Islands. It has been charged that the Governor arbitrarily disbanded the Council of St. Croix because it had refused to recognize or seat his appointees, but it is said here that no question had been raised of the Governor's legal right to take such a course. The charges against the Judge involve his alleged course in sentencing a native editor to jail on charges of criminal libel. Secretary Wilbur, it is said, has asked the Island authorities for reports on the incidents. spoke up Dr. Kelsey, interrupting Dr. Holmes. "I am sorry," began Dr. Holmes again, but this time Dr. Kelsey rose from his chair and started out. As several voices requested him to stay, several others called out "Let him go! Let him go!

"It is to be noted that at the date this communication was received, October 8, 1918, the 372nd had on its roster six colored line officers, who were later transferred to the 92nd Division. "On December 15, General Quillet, commanding the 15th Division wrote as Order of the Divisional Infantry 100: "The 371st and 372nd Infantries are leaving France after having carried on a hard campaign of six months with the I. D. 157. "After having energetically held a series of difficult sectors, they took a glorious part in the great decisive battle which brought the final victory. "In sector, they have shown an endurance, a vigilance, a spirit of devotion and a renarkable discipline. "In battle they have taken by storm, with a magnificent animation, very strong positions doggedly defended by the enemy. "In contemplating the departure of these two fine regiments which I commanded with pride, I desire to tell them all how much I think of them and also to thank them for the generous and precious concurrence which they brought to us at the decisive period of the great war. "I shall keep always in my soldier heart their loyal memories and particularly those of their distinguished commanders who have become my friends: Colonel Miles and Colonel Tupes. "'(Signed) QUILLET, 'Commanding the I. D. 157.'" "On the same day General Goybet, Commander of the entire 157th Division, also took occasion to praise the work of these American fighters as follows: 'On the 12th of December, 1918, the 371st and 372nd R. I. U. S. (both U. S. colored troops) have been replaced at the disposal of the American Higher Command. "With deep feeling of emotion, on behalf of the 157th Division, and in my own personal name, I come to bid farewell to our brave comrades. "For seven months we have lived as brothers at arms, partaking in the same activities, sharing the same hardships and the same dangers. Side by side we took part in the great Champagne battle which was to be crowned by a tremendous victory.

The 369th (old 15th New York National Guard) was especially honored for its record of 191 days on the firing line exceeding by five days the term of service at the front of any other American regiment. Among the honors which France has bestowed upon American soldiers, none is more interesting than the "Citation" by which the entire 369th Regiment was given the coveted Croix de Guerre. The citation was for gallantry in the September and October offensives in the Champagne sector. By command of General Martin, commanding the 92nd Division, General Orders were issued commending a number of colored officers, noncommissioned officers, and privates of the 379th Infantry for meritorious conduct in action at Bois Frehaut, near Pont-aMousson, November 10 and 11, 1918, during the drive on Metz.

An Experience of a Beauty Doctor As we think, a shampoo is a simple process that may be easily done at home, and yet very few persons ever give themselves a perfect shampoo. A young school girl said, "Oh! I cannot afford to shampoo. I'll just wash my hair out under the faucet in the kitchen sink because I have a marcel engagement in a short time. Arriving at the hairdresser's just in time, she said, "How stupid of me; I just washed my hair and it is not yet dry." "Very well," said the operator, half smiling as she glanced at the girl. "Turn on the burner. For ten minutes the air of the hair before the heat air of the dryer but it was still damp and lusterless. "Your hair is not clean and it will never dry," said the operator. "But, I washed it with three soaps and rinsed it a number of times, I am sure it is clean," said the girl. The operator shook her head and the girl replied, "Mrs. So and So, our neighbor washed her hair and she has twice the hair that I have." Again the operator essayed the remark, "I am sorry but the oil has not been washed out and, you have used too much soap. The oil and the soap have formed a gum and you were not able to wash it out." "In the first place, after having lifted the dandruff and massaged your scalp well, you should have had a fine lather or shampoo mixture in a shampoo pitcher to pour slowly over the head, for your hair is the most watery part of the city water, was very hard and you should have added a teaportful of borax to the last soap suds to soften it. Then too, if you had added three tablespoonfuls of vinegar to the last bowl of rinse water, hair, vinegar is the last word in cleanliness." "Never again," sighed the girl "I wasted so much time, made my arms tired, disarranged our kitchen and now I cannot get my marcel until my hair is rewashed. This is a lesson to mee. Every man to his trade after this." The operation replied: "Not only does an expert shampoo add freshness but it leaves the hair light, fluffy and glossy. You could have had a marcel with which the both of us were used for a conscientious operator works for results as well as pay. When she cannot testify herself that the most has been brought out of a particular piece of work, there is no satisfaction to her in the compensation derived. 75-MILES-AN-HOUR CHASE Chicago.—To capture Charles Martin, a speeding university student, a pursuing police man had to travel at a rate of 75 miles an hour on his motorcycle.

Our esteemed contemporaries, Editor Wright of the Christian Recorder and Editor Davenport of the Star of Zion both giant in their way, have been having a merrime time discussing and deciding which is the older church, the Bethel or the Zion de nominations of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. It has been an interestin and instructive question because contre Our esteemed contemporaries, Editor Wright of the Christian Recorder and Editor Davenport of the Star of Zion both giants in their way, have been having a merry time discussing and deciding which is the older church, the Bethel or the Zion denominations of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. It has been an interesting and instructive question because controverted questions of history always settle many questions vital in the history of those concerned and instructive to those who are only "lookers on in Venice," as the poet hath neatly expressed it for us. The discussion has brought out many related facts which otherwise would have remained obscure and perplexing, and that is good and helpful. Editor Wright of the Christian Recorder, in order to clinch his side of the controversy, has printed in his newspaper of May 21, last, the charters of the Bethel and Zion denominations, which should be conclusive as far as the facts go to prove anything, and they usually sweep the deck. Editor Wright shows from the incorporation of the two churches that Bethel church was incorporated under the laws of Pennsylvania, as "The Methodist Episcopal Church," in 1796, while Zion was incorporated under the laws of New York in 1801, as "The African Methodist Episcopal Church," the Bethel incorporation showing that it is five years older than the Zion incorporation. Dr. Wright claims that Bethel became a denomination in 1816 while Zion became one in 1821. Now, by the publication of their incorporations, shall we conclude that Bethel is older than Zion? There does not appear to be any higher appeal. There has been dragged into the conclusion of the controversy a personal note which appears to us to be very gracious. Dr. Wright is so pleased with the scholarly way in which Dr. Davenport has conducted his side of the argument that he thinks that the Zion connection should elect Dr. Davenport a bishop just as soon as it can get around to that business. We rather think that way about it ourselves. Dr. Davenport is not only one of the oldest in service of our Methodist Episcopal Churches, but he is a splendid gentleman and scholar. Editorial Page 01 General Bullard Condemns Our Soldiers We think that when he is older General Robert Lee Bullard of the Regular Army who held high command in the World War will regret the harsh and ungenerous that he says of Afro-American soldiers in France. He accuses large numbers of their offenses of being cowards and incompetent and menace to the virtue of French women so far that he recommended that the New soldiers of the Ninety-Second Division should be sent home, "as no man could responsible for the acts of these Negro toward French women." This hint to General Foch. According to General Bullard, the American has proved a failure in poli and in war. His estimate of our troops in direct conflict with that of General Shing of the American army and the French commanders, the latter being responsible, the most part, for the breveting and civil for high service members of our troops. It is unfortunate for General Bullard and his attitude toward our soldiers, especially as officers, that he was born in Alabama and is a graduate of the West Point Military Academy, and believes by his education both schools of section and Academy to the Afro-American is good only as a variant and underling. We say it is unfortunate on these two counts, and because testimony conflicts with that of the Commander-in-chief of the American armies of the French commanders. Most of the white officers in the West War were opposed to the presence of New troops in Europe and did what they could to prejudice Europeans against them, and so doing created a feeling of distrust. Hatred between white and black American soldiers which the Europeans could not understand and which will be felt for a long time by the American soldiers concern. They can never cooperate again in war with the same spirit of loyalty and singleness purpose which makes for success and which in past wars of the Republic has done much to win success for the stars of stripes. We think that General Bullard's unfortunate outburst of wrath against our soldiers will react upon him in the same way that Col. Roosevelt's disparagement did a part of our soldiers in Cuba, which helped to save him and the Rough Riders from termination in the battle of San Juan Pueblo. The West Point graduates are incapable appears, of serving with Negro officers commanding our soldiers because they show off with the idea that the Negro is an inferior being unfit to associate in a so way, which has nothing to do with military service, with white officers and soldiers, because the Negro is an intellectual inferior who can never measure up to the standards of the white officer and soldier or as a dozen, in the ordinary way. We are sure that the West Point graduates and the average Southern white man will come in time to change their attitude of thought and conduct, because they will have the facts deal with which will show that they are in grave error. There are many such fashions and they are multiplying in all of relations of American blacks and white. "Time makes ancient wrong uncouth," will do it in the relations of the races this country. It has done it. It is doing The Almighty God has brought us all here for a great purpose and he will fuse us in a harmonious whole as we go along, and cannot be thwarted of His purpose.

There are many such facts now and they are multiplying in all of the relations of American blacks and whites. "Time makes ancient wrong uncouth." It will do it in the relations of the races in this country. It has done it. It is doing it. The Almighty God has brought us all here for a great purpose and he will fuse us into a harmonious whole as we go along, and He cannot be thwarted of His purpose. Mrs. Booker T.

Washington. She died at Tuskegee Institute, which she helped to establish and make famous, June 4, after a short illness. She was married to Dr. Washington in 1892. She was a graduate of Fisk University and served as teacher and principal in that institution and in Tuskegee Institute. She brought to the work of education a natural aptitude for gaining the confidence and respect of the student and teacher bodies and wide acquired book information and study of people with whom she came in large and close contact. It was in the work among the girls and teachers of Tuskegee Institute that Mrs. Washington illustrated in the largest way her splendid gifts of head and heart. She was always the soul of cheerfulness and helpfulness to teachers and students, and in the home she radiated the same high qualities, making it a place to be desired in which to seek the rest and repose which the outside activities and associations of the world can never give. A host of women throughout the country who have enjoyed the advantages of the Tuskegee training and influence live to call her blessed. Her interest in the women of the race was world embracing and she exercised a large influence upon them in the organizations of women in which she was long an inspiring and guiding force. Margaret Murray Washington was a great woman and the race is the better for her life and work.

A well-to-do business man was heard to remark the other day that as he had made every dollar he had by his own efforts he would spend it as he pleased. He was an excellent citizen, a good husband and father, with about as few of the bad habits of the average man as it is possible. But in his enthusiasm over his success in life, he had forgotten something. One of the men who heard the assertion happened to know that this man's wife was not only a woman of rare sweetness and gentleness but had good judgment—the quality men call intuition, meaning that the female of the sex is a mental inferior, a habit most men erroneously drop into in a well-meaning way. He forgot that she and not he was largely responsible for the houses he owned and the snug bank account that lay to his credit around the corner.

He was silent citizen, a good husband and far about as few of the bad habits of age man as it is possible. But in usiasm over his success in life, he often something. One of the men and the assertion happened to know man's wife was not only a woman sweetness and gentleness but had Some men forget what they owe their wife as an aid in getting ahead in the world. Another has well said that many of the large fortunes have been salvaged from the kitchen. There is a lot of truth in that rather crude way of giving credit to whom it is due, and we have no doubt but that half of the men of large or comfortable means in the country owe a great deal of their financial success to their wives. As some wives, are the destruction and ruination of their husband because of their extravagances, a vast majority of them are virtually the watchdog of the family treasury. "Madam and I made our money together, half of it is hers and the other half mine," declared a millionaire triumphantly as he took the frail little woman into his arms and stroked her gray hair. They had labored side by side and struggled up the rugged slope hand in hand. There was a world of meaning in the satisfied look this little wife gave her generous, big-hearted husband. She knew that without him the victory would have been lost, but he realized that his companion had made it possible for him to lay up stores of wealth. That is quite a different sentiment. from the one expressed by the other business man. It would seem that a man who cannot be generous and considerate of his own wife, who denies her the credit that is due for her part in the game is indeed most selfish. The man who really believes or can kid himself into believing that he is the breadwinner of the family is either distressingly selfish or has confessedly made a mighty big mistake in life. Poison gas may be tried by New Jersey next year in a war on mosquitoes.

As they put salt into their morning eggs few people remember that common salt is a compound of the deadly poison gas chlorine, used extensively in the war, and a bright white metal which can burn under water. A cupful of salt was a favorite way of suicide among Chinese for in large doses it acts as a violent irritant of the stomach. But although it is a poison, it is beneficial in small quantities, and, indeed, is necessary for health.

He descended from a long line of Ethiopians Kings, and fell heir to the throne of his fathers. His renown became known to Cambyses, king of Ethiopia, who fresh from successful campaigns in Egypt set out to ensnare Ethiopians. A Greek historian tells us that this King at the head of his army met the Persians at the Oasis of Ammon and literally obliterated them in open battle. The loss of 50,000 killed, wounded and captured of its flower practically ended the Persian Empire. Hoosit? Answer to Hoosit 13. Bishop Francis Burns of the M. E. Church. Health Notes Health Notes (U. 8. Public Health Service.) Legal Measures Although legal measures for the prevention and control of venereal diseases are established and enforced by the duly constituted authorities of the community and the State, each individual should contribute his share of interest and influence in order that public opinion may secure desirable legislation and its effective enforcement. The protection and maintenance of the public health make necessary certain laws for the control of venereally infected persons. As a preliminary basis of control, practically all of the States have laws requiring physicians to report to the local or State health departments the cases of venereal diseases which they diagnose or treat. Such reports are usually made by seral number without giving the name and address of the patient. When the patient fails to continue treatment he is reported by name and address. When so reported the health officer may institute such measures of control as the situation warrants. The State and local health officers are now quite generally empowered by law to make examinations of persons reasonably suspected of being infected with venereal disease to report for treatpersons until the results of such examinations are known, to require persons infected with venereal disease to report for treatment until cured or to submit to treatment provided at public expense until cured, and also, when in their judgment it is necessary to protect the public health, to isolate or quarantine persons infected with venereal disease. Many State laws and board of health regulations declare prostitutes to be presumptive carriers of venereal disease and as such subject to examination and, if necessary, quarantine. The constitutionality of these laws has been invariably sustained by courts of last resort in a number of states. Also of importance in venereal disease control are effective laws for the repression of prostitution. By virtue of such laws prostitution in its various phases is made criminal, punishment for which falls not only upon the 'immediate participants in such practices, but more particularly upon those who seek to exploit or commercialize the business of prostitution. In order to make the enforcement of these criminal laws more effective, they are usually supplemented by injunction and abatement measures, making it possible to close as a nuisance any building which the owner allows to be used for purposes of prostitution or assignation. Hotels, lodging houses and public dance halls also require careful supervision. Licenses should be granted to taxi-cabs and to "for hire" automobiles only after careful investigation, and they should be revoked on proof that the drivers have in any way aided prostitution. Laws have also been enacted in a number of the states prohibiting the employment of venereally diseased persons in trades or occupations where such infections might endanger the public health. Legislation prohibiting the advertising and sale of alleged remedies or nostrums for the treatment of venereal diseases has been upheld by the courts as a proper exercise of the police power on the ground that the careful and continued treatment of infected persons by competent and reputable medical advisors is essential to the welfare of society as well as the infected individual. Twenty-nine states already have laws prohibiting such advertising or sale. The right of every child to be well-born is finding expression in legislation requiring medical certification before marriage. Seven states have laws requiring such certification; fourteen states have laws aiming to pervent venereal infection, without requiring all marriage license candidates, or at least all male candidates, to present medical certificates. It should be stated that the division of measures for the prevention of venereal diseases into educational, legal and medical is extremely arbitrary. The legal and medical measures are especially interwoven and complementary. The next and last article in this series will deal with the medical measures for the control of the venereal diseases. Do You Know ? That 21,000,000 letters went to the Dead Letter Office last year? That 803,000 parcels did likewise? That 100,000 letters go into the mail yearly in perfectly blank envelopes? That $55,000.00 in cash is removed annually from misdirected envelopes? That $12,000.00 in postage stamps is found in similar fashion? That $3,000,000.00 in checks, drafts and money orders never reach intended owners? That Uncle Sam collects $92,000.00 a year in postage for the return of mail sent to the Dead Letter Office? That it costs Uncle Sam $1, 740,000 yearly to look up addresses on misdirected mail? That 200,000,000 letters are given this service, and— That it costs in one city along $500.00 daily? AND DO YOU KNOW That this vast sum could be saved and the Dead Letter Office abolished if each piece of mail carried a return address, and if each parcel were wrapped in stout paper and tied with strong cord? Moral: Every man knows his own address if not that of his correspondent. PUT IT IN THE UPPER LEFT HAND CORNER. U. S.

C. HOME AND KITCHEN SUGGESTIONS Department of Education and Inspiration for the Housewife Edited By MARION JANE PARKER, Director, Home Economics, Calumet Baking Powder Company, Chicago, Illinois. GRADUATION DAYS June is just chuck full of all sorts of parties and affairs for the sweet girl graduate whether she be leaving high school, prep school or college. The finishing touch of all these occasions is the dainty repast, whether they are "eats" for evening parties, spreads for class affairs of 'pick-me-ups' for impromptu picnics. Each girl who entertains begs mother to have something different, something that will bring forth 'ohs' and 'ums' from admiring friends. This, of course, taxes mother's ingenuity to the limit—but she is always equal to the emergency—whether it is to suggest what daughter may prepare in her room with a chafing dish, or if she is requested to send a box, or if she is asked to help prepare the repast for a home affair. Chicken has always been popular—either served as chicken a la King, chicken patties or in croqueette form, but to be different mother suggests for the lunch an appetizing ham dish, veal birds or possibly a chilled lobster salad or newburg. If the affair demands that a certain color scheme prevail throughout, the class colors for instance, she is right on hand with attractive though suitable dishes for that occasion. Here are some of the suggestions which may help you. Chilled Ham Mould 1 qt. finely ground lean cold boiled ham. 3 small minced pickles. Paprika to taste. 3 hard-boiled eggs chopped. 1 minced piminto. Salt. Mix all ingredients thoroughly. Remove all fat from the ham stock, strain and add just enough of the stock to hold the ingredients together. Turn into any kind of mold which can have a weight placed up on it. Let it stand over night. Turn on to a platter, surround with watercress and serve with a sauce made by mixing two- thirds of a cup of tomato catshup and one-third of a cup of horse- radish sauce. Commencement Salad 1 lb. red cherries. 1 pt. strawberries. 1 c. shredded pine- apple. 2 sprays mint. Meringue dressing. Pistachio nuts. Pit and drain the cherries, Slice the strawberries. Cut mints in small pieces. Combine the ingredients and chill. Just before serving, sprinkle with powdered sugar and shake lightly. On each serving put meringue salad dressing and sprinkle with finely chopped nuts. Garnish with strawberry leaves. Devil's Food Delight Between two medium thick slices of plain unfrosted devil's food cake place a slice of vanilla ice cream. Over all pour hot fudge chocolate sauce and sprinkle lightly with chopped roasted almonds. 1 cup of strawberries cut in halves. 1 cup sugar. 1-3 cup water. 3 teaspoons minced preserved ginger. Boil sugar and water 5 minutes. Add ginger, and when cold, pour over fruit. Let stand in a cold place one hour. Garnish with tiny strins of candied citron. A Faithful Builder Who is there that doesn't delight in a juicy slice of carefully seasoned, well-baked ham? It is not necessary to bake an entire or even a half a ham, when you crave a serving of this popular meat. Just purchase a ham end, the upper part of a shank or a piece of shoulder. If too salty soak a few hours of parboil, then cover with a paste made of brown sugar crumbs and eggs and bake slowly uncovered for the first part of cooking and covered after it is nicely browned so that a juicy ham will result. Cloves inserted in the fat section add also to its delightful flavor. When there are four or more in the family it is a thrifty custom to purchase a whole ham. It can be served part boiled the first time with spinach and other greens, or cabbage. Baked for a meal, omitting serving it again the day following its first appearance, then left overs for home-made club sandwiches, croquettes, ham hash, or Ham a la King will take care of all that remains. Compared with the price of ham by the slice—you'll find a saying of about thirty cents per pound. Baked Ham With Cider 3 to silbs. butt. 20 whole cloves end of ham 3 cups cider 1 tsp. dry mustard 1-12 tbsp. flour Simmer the ham gently for one hour, then skin. Place the ham in a baking pan, sprinkle with the mustard and stick the cloves into the fat. Pour half the cider into the pan round the ham and bake in a moderate oven—350 to 375 degrees F. one and one-half hours, basting every fifteen minutes with the cider. When tender, skin any excess fat from the pan, add the remaining cider and thicken with the flour rubbed smooth with a little cold water. Strain and serve with the ham as sauce.
