Crockin Building The Exchange Furniture Store has moved from its quarters at 626 Church street to 540-549 Church street, the stand formerly occupied by H. Crockin and Company. Here the Exchange Store has double as much floor space as it had at its former address and has added a first-class line of perfectly new furniture in connection with its extra-value used furniture stock In many respects the Exchange Store is unique in the furniture business of the city. Certainly stores have sold used furniture ever since there was furniture, but it is not often seen that a store specializing in this business could enjoy such phenomenal growth in six years. It was just six years ago when this store began business in charge of Mr. L. Wahrman, its present manager. It was not long before it opened before the public realized that it was something different from the old time second-hand furniture shops of unsavory reputations. It proved every bit a high-class merchandising establishment, selling goods not to unload at a profit, to build a satisfied and dependable trade. That it has recently removed from its former quarters to the 2-acre store attests. Now well it has succeeded in establishing its reputation for service. According to Mr. Wahrman, the store now has sold to over 12,000 customers and now has 4,000 on its books.

YOUNG Every preparation is being made by officials at Hampton Institute to carry over to Norfolk to the Hampton-St. Paul game the largest student representation ever seen there. Arrangements have been made to carry the students over on the double-end Old Point- Willoughby ferry, from which they transfer to cars which carry them direct to the ball park. They will arrive at 2:45, fifteen minutes before the beginning of the game. The well known and somewhat celebrated Hampton Institute Band will also company the rooters and will furnish the attendants with a bit of enjoyable music. It is planned to have the Consider rooters form the famous "IP", and give songs and yells between the halves. All indications point to a gala event, as there will also be a dance at the Bailey Park Annex on the evening of the game. A group of twenty-two employed girls meet on Wednesday nights at the Phyllis Wheatley Branch of the Y. W. C. A., for music, recreation and games.

The Tiger-Beam Scrap to be a happy reminiscence the St. Paul and Shaw followers saw two of the leading teams in the C. I. A. A, and two great battle desperately, fiercely Socially only to find them in a 0-0 deadlock when the Tiger's final whistle brought to bear a close a game that was毁 by brilliancy, thrills of crowd sort, and tense moments. The St. Paul-Shaw scoreless here was the first real upset of the season. Atsu sports editors predicted that Shaw was at the two touchdowns better than Paul, and even those on the ball had an ickening that Shaw could conquer but. But Paul a field hit. But,父子 would have it in the "bear" exploded. The irritable Bass and the immovable Tigers were the architects of the safekeaton, and when they right down to football business anybody's game, and, take all things into consideration, a hand-tuck struggle for gridron The team that Douglass sent on Will Field today locked like the wonder team” of yore. The guys displayed a brand of defender and offensive football that was difficult for the Bears to overcome and the shrewd maneuvers the former were indicative of a knowledge of the “Old Game.” When threatened in the third and sixth periods, Douglass’ mighty mines put up a defense that apparently only the superman could handle. John Oliver, Byrd, Brinkwell, Blackwell, Baker, Captain Boyes and Williams composed St. Louis’ line which squared off against the structure and the charge of the premier plays. Charlie Hall, St. Paul’s diminutive quartet, directed the destiny of “wonder team” in the first, second and final periods of the game, was Charlie’s first big game, he made good. The work of Smith, Hudson, Robinson, Pierce Scribner was the first order. WILEY A. JOHNSON, JR. HAMPTON ST. PAUL—Northeast October 17. Here friends of a gridron game, we have a tussle left ought to furnish much entertainment, a struggle between determined Tigers and equally determined Seasiders. Hampton mould have little difficulty in coping handily. There will be no surprise, because the Hampton migration never goes into a truce to pick up tallies. Hampton is a show, safe and conservative ready at any moment to take over the town, but moreover those come. St. Paul will weaken and crack under the strain and hampton will trot on to victory being battered Tigers in her office. Of course, St. Paul might bring a surprise and turn the tables, but there is no use for work in this direction. Hampton is in this direction. Hampton is for St. Paul, but she is not win without a struggle. The Tigers will see to it that a story will only be earned through work. N. W. L. I. DURHAM STATE Pittsburgh, October 17. The hippies will use by after a tough battle, leaving the only North Carolina team fired.

And here is a game neither eleven will have any to spot each other. This will be a booster-to-goodness grid battel with neither team having any to spare when slipping over, both teams are strong and well used to stand a nerve racking and for sixty minutes and then this will be a real test and game in which anything might open and a game in which a skill will have to decide the victor quamified. This will also be a game between brawn and dum and brains and brains. Wit will be material! against, wit and antithet will fall over when the game comes. & T. NA. SEMINARY-17. October 17. The old Carolina Aggies are several downs强者 than the DeGaulish and will have little troubling up a nice score. There too much weight for Seminary, but that can handle itself, and that can play football with test of them. The preliminary is not an intention to underlie the eleven. She has squared and a good coach, but DeGaulish will not be able to with the pace A. & T. sets all her opponents. INCOLN-WARD A. C. Fondi-October 17. If this game is end, it will be a contest between two college eleven, and a strong pro aggregation. Here we, a knight to come through with a little something to spare, but she turn over any point. Of course we are chances of breaks owing given either team the odds but barring these, the ought to roll over. unim. ---A government commission recommended the revocation of 5,000 public house licenses. Shaw came to St. Paul twenty-eight strong, and bent on crushing the Virginia bunch. The selected aggregation which' Martin put on the field against St. Paul today had all the carmacks of Shaw's teams of fifteen years ago when Shaw was unquestionably monarch of all she surveyed on the gridiron. "Little brother" Martin, "Scripp" Carrington and four other "specials" from Massachusetts, a Spillitt, who was N. C. State Normal's makeup last year, soon found that St. Paul took nothing and considered heresy merely a relic of his niece and niece age. Shaw had the fury and the determination, and when a score seemed inevitable the great Bear outfitted back two St. Paul tenacious charges. Martin, Doles, Mitchell, Carrington, Captain Gill and Fridgone bore the brunt of battle for the Tarheel visitors. Both teams were very nervous and played under high tension. Fumbling was frequent. Two bad passes and 65 yards in penalties almost proved the undoing of Shaw. The forward pass game was below par. Punting was fair. St. Paul registered five first downs, while Shaw tucked away six. The officiating was excellent. The sports- manship was genuine. THE LINEUP St. Paul--0 Shaw--0 Byrd L. E. Bowyer Blackwell L. L. Hughes Williams L. G. Pridgeman Boykins C. Ballard J. Oliver R. G.

MITH -Washington, October 17. It has been claimed that Smith has come to the fore with something very good. All of that may be true, but it is not good enough for the Bison that Howard should have money time with the North Carolina team and a big score can be expected from this turtle, with Howard having all of them. WILBERFORCE-SIMMONS—Louisville, October 17. Very much dope has not been gathered on these rivals, but as Wilberforce turns out some good eleven, she ought to be able to take care of eleven against the majority of eleven.

NORFOLK A. C. SILVER E. LEVEN--Norfolk. Octobr 18 (pending)--This will be a mery scramble with the Norfolk aggregation having a very easy time in piling up a nice little score. As is understood, the other local square will not afford the crack clever much competition, but the nucle will prove interesting nevertheless. NEWPORT NEWS NOSES OUT OVER NORFOLK A.C. # 18 WILLEY A.

The tackling of the visiting team was excellent, only this prevents the Norfolk Athletic Club from coming out of the game by at least three touch N. A. C. started off slow, as has been the custom of the aggregation, but in the final stages of the game, showed a burst of speed that earned a touchdown with Hill penetrating the opposing line almost at will for good yardage, until the ball was finally worked down within striking distance, from which HAMPTON'S MOST BRILLIANT LIGHTS FAST GOING TIGERS KENNETH M.

BOOKERS ROMP SEMINARY WINS OVER CATHOLICS A CLOSE BATTLE BY 33 TO ZERO OVER HAMPTON BY WILLEY A. JOHNSON The Fighting Books lost all control and ran completely, leaving St. Joseph on their wake in a 330-deaf defeat at League Park, Thursday of last week in their first association game of the season. It was merely a cause of too much Wilson for the Catholic boys. A well-trained team took to the field and it was plainly seen that the Bookers and undergone some very hard work in preparation for the fray. The squad was in much better form than it had gained the season. A. in the first game of the season. From the first whistle until the last, St. Joseph was outplayed, outwitted, outclassed, outrun and a great deal more. It was a consensus of opinions that St. Joseph would give the Fighting Bookers a very rough time in the game that had been named the "City Classic," but the first scamage displayed the fact that Catchville would be in the running and it would merely be a matter of when Booker Washington would start scoring. St. Joseph Begins To Show St. Joseph showed fight in the second period and ripped a pair of holes in the Bookers' line, but instead of following up this advantage, elected to kick. At this point both squads began a kicking duel, in which Booker Washington had the advantage. The other scores in the game equally the same as the first, from forward passes, with Williams, Tolliver and Teame v scoring, the latter a substitute back. Nearly the entire squad of the Fighting Bookers got a chance in the fray and some of the new material did very well.

The appearance of the squad was the signal for freezed yells and cheers. Huntington won the toss and elected to kick. Capt. Sedgwick drew the ball down to Williamsburg's goal. The receiver made about ten yards on the return. Williamsburg held them for downs. A short kick put the ball on the visitors' 40 yard line. Then began a short marche that netted the first down. Davis, the little four foot right half back, smashed through the line for four yards. Sedgwick hit for three more. A forward pass, Williams to Brown, netted 20 yards.

In fact they were unable to make a first down throughout the entire game. After attempting an end run, Capt. Sedgwick assaype a place kick from the intersection of the side line and the 20 yard line. It was a perfect kick. Score 10-10. The touchdowns we were scored by Coach Thomas' lads before the agony for the first half was over. Score 25-0. During the next quarter Huntington continued its steady march "Happy" Williams, Minns, and Sedgwick asked a place kick from offense. During this quarter Sedgwick picked up a fumble and raced 35 yards for another touchdown. After several thrilling plays, pants and lads, Williams and the point after touchdown was awarded for the visitors' outside. The game could, where it was mostly played, in the visitors' territory, when Sedgewick missed a shot and Sedgewick had a line in the last minute of play. Lynchburg, Va., Oct 10—Defying the unpleasant stare of what appeared to be a scoreless game, the Seminary Deacons came back in the final period of their encounter here today with Hampton Institute and with a place-kick secured the single score of the afternoon. Captain Melvin Wheedle piloted his faithful warriors through the storm and at the end of the game presented them with a highly coveted reward—one which he received the singular honor of Brown's. The team had kicked out to her 35 yard line. Wheedle signaled for a fair catch. Only three minutes remained for play, and Wheedle elected to attempt a place kick from the spot on which he caught the ball. This was Seminary's last hope for a victory; action then counted tremendously toward the outcome of the battle. Brown drew back a bit, limbered up his leg, and sent the piskimin twirling into the air. Each turn it made in its course, polled defiantly for the ball, and when he tacked the center of the goal posts the little handful of Hampton supporters saw their last snark of hope die away. Although unable to pierce the impregnable defense offered by the Deacons in crucial moments, Hampton did manage to get the hall down within the shadow of the goal posts on several occasions, but each time her most vicious efforts were turned into more threats. Seminary rosters made a fourable courtist when it was time to "Wild" him, and gave true to his name, had carried a pickled-fumble 70 yards in vain. The referee had blown his whistle just as the fumble was made. Seminary. In the courtroom the Sessidens fought against the wind and with their backs to the wall. Seminary had made frequent gains and first downs thru the Hampton defense in the middle of the field, but was unable to scale the insurmountable stone-wall line that they always found when a touchdown looked closest. With only three minutes left to play, Bee's bee knee in Hampton line and knew that action then would count. He signalled for a fair catch of Hampton's punt on her 35 yard line. Here the Deacons' sturdy back and stellar toe artist, Brown, performed his seemingly miraculously feat and took Seminary's first football game from Hampton.

The Curriculum of secondary grade covers four yeays of work. The main divisions of Agricultural instruction are taught such as plant production, animal husbandry, horticulture, rural engineering, farm management, farm economics, and farm shop. The aim of this course is to train young men for practical farm operations, managers of large farms, and can- didates for entrance to the college course in Agriculture. _ THE AGRICULTURAL CURRICULA OF COLLEGIATE grade includes a two year curriculum and a four year curriculum, leading respectively to a diploma and the degree of B. S. in Agricultural Edu- cation. The aim of these Curricula is to train men for teachers of Agticulture in the secondary schools and to operate farms according tothe modern methods, THE AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT has ample laboratories and facilities for the teaching of Agriculture and_the allied sciences. The Institute owns 2¢0 acres of arable land—T0 of oke 200 ave in the 110 acre plat on which the school is located; the remaining plat, of 190 acres is, located about a mile from the Institute. ‘The school farm is galgy the management of one of the best practical farmers in the South. The operation of the farm becomes an object lesson and a laboratory for te students in the Agricultural department. ‘There ave four teachers and one farm manager connected with the Agricultural department. All four teachers are graduates of the best Western colleges of Agriculture. Two of them come from the Iowa State College of -Agriculture—ono holds the degree of Bachelor of Science in Agriculture; the other Doctor of Verterinary Medicine ;one from the University of Nebraska with the degree of Bachelor of Science in Agriculture; and one from Kansas Agricultural College with the degree of Bachelor of Science in Agriculture. ‘Three of the four have done work towards the degree of Master of Seience in Agriculture. THE AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT was organized in 1907; but, because of lack of fundz, its work was very limited until 1923 when the Institute was made the Land Grant College for Negro Youth. At that time definite courses of study were outlined and a serious effort was begun in the training of young men in the various fields of Agri- cultare, : All of the graduates of the Agricultural School ave successfully employed. Some are farm demonstration agents, others are teachers of agriculture in the County Training Schouls and high schools ‘and 3 | few are managers of farms. } ee en, | h * Dp zarKr © i : . \ With Everything Menand Boys Wear!

Visitors Welcome. : You Need The Church The Church Needs You PAGE EIGHT PASTOR TELLS UNMARRIED HOW TO WIN CUPID Many Hear Rev. Bowling's Sermon On How People Ought To Court And Leave With Good Instructions. "A woman's very modesty is as much of an attraction as her beauty," said the pastor of the First Baptist Church last Sunday night. He was delivering a special sermon on How People Ought To Court. An unusually large number of young people were present in the great audience, also, not a few widows and widowers. "There is such a thing as a beautiful woman," Rev. Bowling continued, "being so brazen as to frighten away the man with serious and good intentions. A man doesn't like to think of his sweetheart as being the sweetheart of every man that comes along with some flattering compliments. Widows and Widowers "Ruth's modesty was also seen in her choice of a lover. Being a widow she didn't set her cap for any young men whether they were rich or poor. It were well that many second marriages were characterized by such modesty today. Regardless of how a person feels, age has its effects both physically and temperamentally. Widows, like, Ruth, and widowers, like Boaz, ought to seek mates of about the same age. And the differences which time makes in one's body and mind cannot be stoned for by the provision of any mere home comforts or the possession of social or religious standing. "Such advice as Ruth received from her mother-in-law is needed atill. The Scriptural language: 'Wash thyself therefore, and anoint thee, and put thy raiment upon thee,' simply means in modern terms, 'Heighten your charms by using soap and water, ointments and perfumes and wearing appropriate clothes.' "And think of Naomi's further advice that Ruth go to see her lover one night at the close of the barley harvest. There is nothing suggestive here. This is no more than the ancient parallel to our present day seashore, parlor, or lovers' luna courtships. It is the woman putting herself in the power of the man she thinks worthy of becoming her husband. And to be frank, this is one of the main points in a woman's courtship. By your sweetheart's reaction to your lover's abandon you can guage his honor, and therefore, his intentions and his desirability as a husband. Resting Your Case "Ruth did not rush her lover, for she was advised to sit still until she knew how the matter would fall. After you have done a noble woman's part, rest your case. It is then his move, not yours. There is no justification or need for shady measures, in order to get a husband. The so-called 'trial marriage' will not get you any where. It generally ends disastrously, and it is certainly not a thing to look back to with pride. Besides, to threaten your lover with slanderous charges unless he marries you, is beneath the dignity of a self-respecting woman. When you have done all that a de- FEMALE TROUBLES Write For FREE BOOK New Treatment Proves Successful If you suffer with FEMALE TROUBLES, such as Ovarian Pains, Pains in the lower part of your Stomach, Bearing-down Pains, Headache, Backache, Whites, Painful or Irregular Periods.

No Lover's Advantage "Just like the modern lover who makes gifts according to his ability of candy or flowers, and takes his sweetheart to church or to the theatre or to the dance, so Boaz made things pleasant for Ruth. But you will note that he took no lover's advantage of her. He recognized that courtship is no means to indecent familiarity, but is an avenue to honorable and successful marriage. With Boaz courtship was a serious matter. His intions were evident, and there was no fooling of his beloved. "Nor is courtship today a mere form of living as eating and drinking or dressing and working. If you don't mean business, don't court. You are doing damage to your own finer nature. You are hurting the life of God's greatest gift to man, a trustful, clean-minded woman." Rev. Bowling announced at the close of his sermon that he would preach this Sunday night on How People Ought To Marry. He said it would be a sermon specially designed to meet the needs of prospective brides and grooms.

She gave a very helpful message to which the girls listened with rapt attention. Mrs. Lee stressed the necessity for education.

Suffolk, A City Of Progressive People And Modern Homes ‘The tourist in Virginia, woh o foes to Sutfolk, will soon become upprised of the fact that Virginia boasts of no more progressive city in so far as the colored people are ‘concerned, The city's population is betsecen 9,000 id, 10,000, per- ‘sons, about one-thi:d of which is colored. These are a hustling, bustling group of Negroes, w h 0 have set a high premium upon ec- onomic, health and educational at- tainments.. It might be, said of them, they count not so much in aumibers. but in iehievemznts. ‘The city itself is an old one and iates back ty the Colonial period. Associated with it is much in his- toric lore. For centuries it baskel in at quaintness which gave it dis- tinction. Much of that has posed, jand the town has joined the msreh ‘of progress to the extent that there is not much jeft to remind the old- timer of the sedate little city that once was. In this mateh of prog- ress the Negroes of the city have slayed sn important part. fy the town are a number of substantial Negro property owners, and hun- drets of owners of — individual homes. In fact the desire to own their own homes appears to bz a charceteristic of Suffolk colosed peopic. And the homes, most of them, are mecerny built on spa- civus’ plots and "surrounded by attractive lawns and poultry. rans. Some of the homes are actually pretentious.

But there are va- ‘vious other plants that also ab- ‘sorb large numbers of colored workers. Farming is carried on to a large extent near the city, and Negroes are found largely engaged in this industry. . Probably the most notable recent development in the city has been that inaugu- rated by the Nansemond Develop- ment Company, a concern of Ne- groes, which has actually built a modern city within a.city. These are houses of two story bungalow type, all substantially built’ and very. attractive Suffolk is probably the most easily accessible city. in Virginia.

F. Jordan, 179 Tynes St., Phone 316. Inquiries concerning advertising, news, subscriptions, etc., will be attended to promptly by Dr. Jordan, or his local representatives. Suffolk, Va.---Dr. T. D. Tharpe, with offices at 321 Washington St., has included in his practice the treatment of diseases, and their removal of growth, etc., by electricity. He is doing this so very successfully that he is kept in his office most of the time. We humbly apologize for a little seeming mistake at an attempt at trying to give numerous write "up" last week. We tried to tell a brief story of three doctors taking a long ride. Incidentally, we mentioned one "Mrs. D. F." humorously did the driving. No, she was not. No "shur." Mrs. Lillie Macon Wilson, formerly of this city, has removed to her new home at Truxtun. Mrs. Mary Brown, of Portsmouth had for her Sunday guests, Mrs. Macon and children, Mr. and Mrs. Anderson and daughter, of Suffolk, Mr. T. E. Cook is beginning to do successful business, in E. Washington street. Look for the T. E. Cook and Company "ad." Cook and Among the first-class barber shops, notice The M. Vernon, King Tut and many others. All are good. It is said that the M. Vernon is second to none, but there are others, you know. O'Henry's a mighty nice place to get what you need in cold drinks, and about everything else. No one can best "Joe", and his force at being polite. Lady Dr. Swire is our lady dentist, and she is making very good. Dr. Rance and Dr. D. C. Fleming are the other two dentists. Here are very few tootaches. Drs. Tharpe, Archy Fleming, Pierce and Mendez manage to keep our people on their feet. If those of us will not live, despite of these good doctors, then come in our faithful undertakers, Crocker and Boykin, Reed, and T. E. Cook and Company, who never fail to make good their cases. Some of our teachers do not like to see their names in print. But not all are so. For instance: Prof. J. A. Brown has been principal of the Booker T. Washington graded school, of this city more than thirty years. This does not make him an old man. Dr. J. F. Jordan has been principal of the S. N. T. School twenty-one years, and it's still young. There are several lady teachers, but I am not permitted to intimate their ages. Ministers, churches and preachers? We have them by about 35 or 40. Some are doing well, and others are doing better. "Each in his order." They have stopped so much quarrelling and have gone to saving sinners from their sin. Among our ablest and strongest men holding the largest churches are: Revs. A. Boone, Dr. Harrell, Dr. T. J. Johnson, Rev. W. A. Colb, Rev. W. M Brinkley, Rev W. E. Sprayet and Dr. C. L. Alexander. These are my selection. There are others who rank well. Dr. Johnson comes in as both principal and pastor, and so does another. I am writing these few remarks in good faith. The almost sudden death of Mr. Ed. Hall, undertaker, at Emporia. Friday, has cast a gloom over many. He leaves three brothers and several sisters. Among them were: Messrs. Peter, John and Robert Hall, of this city; Misses Annie, Georgina Mae, Lucy and Mrs. Have you noticed the Hunter Brothers' Antique? Howell and Foreman, Lawyers, have an announcement on this page. We have striven hard to advertise everybody in town, who want to, for the Fair. And here is our Dan Fleming, along with his brother, Dr. Archy, doing a good business in dentistry and medicine. Note: My kindly mention of the people of this city is not advertisements, but simply showing kind respects to those, or some of those, who are doing things for others as well as for themselves. There is Leon Colden, who is doing his best to sell everything that his market can sell. He also sells the GUIDE. And there is a certain minister, principal and newspaper man, who is seen so much that when some see him, they ask for the Guide. Some of his close and familiar friends call him Dr. Journal and Guide. He never reacts it because he handles a mighty good paper. Maybe he doesn't have to do it, but he does it. Did you see Messrs. Johnson, Swire and Crocker's last and biggest, attractions. "Ad" in this week's issue? You will do well to read it. In fact, I call your attention to everything on this page—though not much. At the Pine Street Baptist Baptist Church last Sunday morning, the services were well attended. The pastor, Rev. T. J. Johnson, preached on "Some Qualifications of Christian Character." At 3 p. m., he preached on "The Nature of Service of Christ." At 6:30 p. m., B. Y. P. U. was largely attended and discussion very interesting. You are invited. At 8 p. m., Rev. G. T. Rousseau of Murfreesboro, N. C., and Missionary preached a very interesting sermon on "Love". Many favorable comments were made. YOU ARE WELCOME. VISITORS Our dear visitors: It is one of our great pleasures to extend to you our best wishes and welcome you to come in and make yourselves welcome among us. You are at liberty to do as you like. You will find us ready to feed and sleep you, and to receive all your spare change. You will also find this to be the best city you were ever in, and the worst you have ever been out of. Look for the Journal and Guide man, either in his booth or always in sight. Yes, you are welcome, thrice welcome. The "GUIDE" man. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Watson motored to Franklin, Sunday, in company with Mr. and Mrs. Ransom Snipy. Mrs. Mary T. Ferice, of Wil- mington, N. C., has concluded a visit to her brother, Mr. Robert Watson, Norfolk, and her mother, Mrs. Mary Watson, White March Road. Don't forget the business meet- ing Wednesday at Mrs. H. A. Jordan. All of the mothers are asked to be present. School League Holds Quarterly Meeting The East Suffolk Senior School League held its quarterly meeting at the A. M. E. Church, Sunday, October 4. Rev. Spratley gave a wonderfully practical talk. Among other things he said that people could best get help who helped themselves. He laid stress upon culture as it brings one in contact with the Divine Mind. It is hoped that the League will turn out in full when Rev. Spratley speaks again. The collection was $25.55. Mrs. H. A. Jordan thanks those who helped her to the extent of $E.25. The Rosewauld School will be started not later than May 1. 1926. Mr. R. S. Vaughan, president; Mrs. Ida Morris, secretary; Dr. E. L. H. Rance, treasurer; Mrs. H. A. Jordan, mistress of ceremonies. Hunter Brothers' Unique Business Suffolk, Va.—A unique business among colored people in this city is that of Hunter Brothers, dealers in American and antique furniture. The business is said to be quite successful. The concern advertises that it pays the best cash prices for antique furniture and buys throughout Virginia and North Carolina. Supplies Seed Corn And Peanuts Suffolk, Va.—Mr. C. W. Luke, is one of this city's prosperous farmers. Each year he makes a specialty of preserving large quantities of seed corn and peanuts, with which he supplies surrounding plants. Mr. Luke has an advertisement in this paper announcing this year's sale of choice seeds. Joseph P. Hall Co. Progressive Business Suffolk, Va.—One of this city's prominent drugstores is the Joseph P. Hall and Company at 130 Washington street. This concern enjoys a reputation of honesty, square-dueling and courtesy. It has acquired a large number of friends and patrons here and is listed among the town's substantial business enterprises. Service That Softens Sorrows Of Death Suffolk, Va.—Crocker and Boykins, undertakers, are numbered among the progressive business establishments of the city. Of course, no one hopes ever to need their services, but inasmuch as everyone will eventually need services similar to theirs, they desire it be known that they are in a position to soften the sorties of the bereaved with service that overlooks not the slightest detail. Members of the firm are regarded as public-spirited men who cooperate in all movements looking for community and race advancement. The Antique, Invites The City's Visitors Suffolk.Va.--Visitors to the city will find comfortable and clean lodging with excellent meals at the Antique, Sylvester Brosier, proprietor.

At 7:30, the Rural Life Holds Limitless Opportunities For Those Who Are Prepared to Use Them More Attention to Preliminary Business Training Important Need of The Times President N. G. Mutual Life Ins. Co. Often the call has come to me to forecast the business outlook of the race. When I am permitted to speak on the opportunities for the development of business that literally surround us I am enthused beyond measure. First, there is plenty of land available North Carolina and Virginia, despite segregation practices. This land can be bought in reasonable prices. In fact many Negroes in just the two states are land-poor, that they have-more land than can profitably handle. This soil lends itself to fertility very easily. Properly fertilized this soil will produce many American staples—particularly tobacco and cotton. There is more or less a constant demand for these raw products. And farm products can be marketed to the benefit of the farmer. How to market farm products ought to attract the attention of many young men and women. It is an opportunity backloging to them. It is the service that the race needs. It is a service calling for best preparation. The activities of just one type of distributing agency, the tobacco growers cooperative associations, ought to be sufficient evidence of the possibilities in such a pursuit. Farm Service Akin to this is the big service to be rendered the farmer through cooperative buying. The individual farmer buys at a disadvantage. He knows very little about financing a business to begin with. Marketing, purchasing, finance in g are highly scientific. But they are also very necessary. Where there is vision, the opportunities in these fields are well nigh inexhaustible. Financing is quite a connecting link. It establishes very direct contact between the rural center BY ROBERT H. HUTHERFIELD President National Bank Co. Nothing could be more distasteful or unbecoming to me than the mantle of prophecy. So I hasten to dislodge any of the mysterious gift appertaining to prophets, gift of professional. Nor do I possess any skill in the employment of astrology, palmistry, crystal, gazing or other future-piercing aids to divination. My opinions as to the present and future of Negro business are based on nothing more esoteric than what has passed and is passing across a rather untidy desk in the course of the day's work—mixed with some outside observation, information and belief. Insurance is, of course, a business which touches life and business at many points. So the insurance man whose fortune, or misfortune, it may be to sit at the head of its various channels of information and observation can hardly escape assimilating an unusual amount of interesting data. In fact, it is part of his business to do so. Sources of Information The National Benefit Life Insurance Company has more than a hundred branches. And these branches are distributed over the wide extent of twenty-six states. In their offices and out in the field about fifteen hundred of our race are employed. They try to meet pastor preached from the subject all services were well attended. MR. DEMPSY WHITE DEAD Mr. Dempsey White, a well known bass singer, and a member of Zion Baptist Church for many years, died this summer in New Haven, Conn. CONTRIBUTIONS TO OLD FOLK'S HOME Soprano contributors for the Old Folk's Home are as follows: Miss Williams, a white friend, for wood; Messrs. L. H.

SPAULDING, President of North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company. and the big city. Such a relationship is highly desirable. It tones up the rural life, gives it pride and self-interest without disturbing its rural setting. This is highly desirable because of the farmer's relation to life. The farm is essential to human existence. Everything must be done to keep PETER H. R. H. RUTHERFORD, President of National Benefit Life Insurance Company. everybody, of course, and they are themselves an integral part of the communities they live in. They know how Tom White's cotton crop stocks up, and Jim Black's corn acreage, and Will Green's potatoes. They hear about little business and big in their capacity as neighbors, friends and well-wishers. And as these general and individual conditions affect business, the head office hears of them too. So a good deal of information, not gossip or heresy but solid, businesslike information, filter through to my desk as the days go From it, no prophet is needed to see the immediate future as excitationally bright. There are local exceptions. The farmers in Virginia, unfortunately, have no fared as well as their brethren in some other states. On the other hand, the general level of prosperity in Virginia is higher than most. And the farmers of Virginia in do not worry over temporary sack-hacks. Outlook at Norfolk Our branch offices at Norfolk, where Mr. C. H. Liewellny and his coadjutors are breaking records, as well as at Richmond, Petersburg, Alexandra, Charlottesville, Danville, Farmville, Roanoke, South Boston and Bristol and that district which will be served by our new office will be served by the splendid results they have had this year that Virginia business and agriculture need occasion no worry to anyone. The future of Negro business in a more general sense is much too big a subject to cover in this brief fashion. Emphatically, it is what ever we choose to make it. The hardest work has been done. The pioneers of our commercial advance had to cut their way through an almost pathless jungle. Those of us who are following them are on a highway, in comparison. The big insurance companies which have been built up by the Race within less than a generation from nothing to institutions, doing yearly business in the millions, possessing more millions in the form of iron-clad reserves, and many the farmer supplied and contented. Much of this comes as a by-product of financing. And the business of financing is of sufficient importance in itself to engage the keenest minds. Financing calls for banks, mortgage corporations, investment institutions, trust companies and the like. Limitless Opportunities What I am trying to say is that the simple rural Negro life of Virginia and North Carolina, a part of which anyone may become even though he has no money, holds yet untouched, limitless opportunities to put into active practice the training that issues from the greatest educational institutions in the country. The business outlook for the race is most encouraging. I believe, however there is need for much more vision among our young people. I do not have any statistics on the results attained by our people who have pursued business training. But, from observation, I have a notion that preparation for business pursuits is not an art many of them. It is most unfortunate. Many of us are at point the primary need is the encouragement of vision, the pointing out of the many opportunities available and the fashioning of a kind of business training that will inspire the youth and at the same time meet the needs of our racial group. Business, the church, the welfare forces, all could help school in a program of inspiration and of technical training best suited to the needs of our young people. The approach through which is stressed here but out of it will come opportunities in every phase of business life. more in the form of industrial investments and real property,—these enterprises are proof, if proof is asked for, that the Race is capable of assuming and successfully carying forward difficult and varied commercial responsibilities. The National Benefit is one of these larger successes of the Race. It is entirely Negro in origin, management and a personnel. With several others also controlled by our own people, it is a big factor in our general future commercially, enlisting and training the coming administrators of that future. Opportunities For Youth Speaking of the entry of our young people into business, here too I am favorably situated to draw conclusion. An organization of fifteen hundred men and women, and one growing rapidly month by month, offers opportunity to our youth on every side. It is clear did augur of our future commercial prospects that of its clever youth in business. In building for a greater future it is this facet of growth which counts most. Business needs men and women of sound health and same minds to run it. From what I can see of the young blood which comes to us, the future is secure in this respect. Unfortunately, though they stack up unusually well in natural ability, initiative and response many of them have not gotten the preliminary business training which is a most a commonplace among the youth of our whiteethnic community that is an outstanding fact. It is as important it is outstanding. A going business is an exacting machine. The various cogs in its wheels should have the rough edges removed before they are installed in the machine. It is economically wasteful to stop the machine to remove these rough places. But that is what happens if the busy executive of the department or section must train his newer subordinates in the elementary principles of their duties. Let the bright youth of our Race get it into their heads that Negro business offers them an incalculable opportunity for themselves and for the Race; that it is big enough to justify brass tasks preparation to fit themselves to handle it; and get down to business and do so—and the future of Negro business will be triply assured.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER A Celebrated at Zion Fathers' and Sons' Day was fittingly observed at Zion Baptist Church last Sunday. The programs for both the morning and evening services were under auspices of the Men's League. Mr. John T. Fisher was master of ceremonies during the morning service. After devotions by Rev J. M. Armistead, pastor emeritus of the church, the pastor, E. Scribner, provided an excellent sermon on "The Kingdom of God." As a basis for his discourse, he used this passage from John 18:36 — "Jesus answered, My Kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. His massage was exacerbated by his impatience. Music was furnished by the male choir with Mr. Chas. Butts, organist of the league, accompanist. "I used to have dandruff made my hair coarse and I manage. I wished with it, pretty, pretty, pretty, not know how to have it learned of Exelento Quinna aide." A sacred concert was given instead of the regular evening service.

This connection, it might be made to note, that although he has been migration of the from the State in considerations in late years, the period, 1910-1920 witnessed increase in the Negro population in Virginia from 671,096 to 769,096. improvement Is Notable The statistics are required, mere drive for a hundred miles or into the rural sections, to connect the observant person that there is increasing prosperity among the colored farmers of Viru. In some sections, particular Northern Neck district, fine farming houses, individual water power plants, sanitary home agreements are found on a comparable number of farms owned among the race. Norfolk, Seward counties and the East Shore are also notable examples of this increased prosperity better trained farmers. Any man with an inclination to mine a farmer, no longer has to rely on the idea of knee-deep black of running water, bath electrical appliances in the. The farmer is now enjoy these urban comforts. The wife of today may use here iron, straightening iron, in warm waters, just as the wife of business man. finitely, much of this improvement, due to the personal contact of the farmer of the educated Negro farm and Home Demonstration Agents, in the State There are 47,768 with a total acreage of 2,494 acres in the possession of negro farmers, of which 1,104,463 are improved. 32.4 per cent that total number of farms in which they are under 20 acres to Negroes. There are 9,436 farms among Negroes in this with from 20 to 490 acres, of 175 acres to 490 acres, and in acreage from 1500 to farming in Virginia is greatly improved. In the Tidewater county truck farming is predominant, crops engage quite extensively, particularly on the Eastern Mansfield and Norfolk counties. Most of these farmers are found it practicable to cut on their holdings in acreage, because successful truck farming deeds intensive cultivation and rotation of crops. Five to acres generally comprise a truck farm, and there are typically no dull seasons for the truck farmer. In the Southern Western counties peanuts, totes and cotton and corn are the main form products. In some these sections Negroes will this harvest hundreds of bales of corn and as many bushels of nuts. This sort of farming really requires doubly as much truck farms require. Rapid rotation of crops is impossible on account of the length of time required for a single yield of such crops. according to the Virginia Crop Rating Service, the corn crop is short this year on account of the prolonged drought. Some crops were materially bene- hited by the September rains, but only the yield is considered the average.

Visitors and Friends are cordially invited to visit us at any of the following Southern Aid Tidewater Service Stations:— Thirty-two Years In The Industrial Insurance Business The Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc., with Home Offices at Richmond and District Offices and Agencies in the State of Virginia and District of Columbia, has established many notable records in its 32 years of operation. While 32 years would not be considered a long time in the affairs of races that have enjoyed for centuries, freedom and opportunities without the handiops of slavery and later proscription, such as our group or race, has had to endure, yet such a period of unbroken operation and success for a business conducted by a people with only 60 years of partial freedom is certainly an outstanding achievement. Among the achievements of the Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc., during the past 32 years may be noted the following: It has paid to policyholders in the form of Sick, Accident and Death Benefits over $3,500,000.00. These payments have made it possible for the recipients----policy holders and beneficiaries----to have the best medical service and other comforts during sickness and a decent and Christian burial after death. Thus a great personal service has been rendered to thousands of homes of our group. On the other hand, a larger public service has been rendered to the race by making it possible for these homes to have the service of colored physicians, druggists, nurses, hospitals a n d undertakers during the periods of disability and distress----and such was not possible before the advent of Colored Insurance Organizations. Gives Profitable Employment The Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc, has given dignified and profitable employment to hundreds of colored men and women. Most of them received their first business experience in the employ of the Society. Many have been inspired and helped to advance in many other activities in life. Thus you will find in many of the professions and other positions of honor or public service, men and women who formerly worked for the Society. The Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc, has accumulated over $700,000.00 in Stable Assets, including valuable property holdings, State and city bonds, first lien mortgages, representing loans made to race charches, schools, hospitals, and homes. Many colored lawyers, contractors, real estate agents have been employed and commissioned to handle transactions covering these investments. THE BANK OF THE UNITED STATES Home Office Group 525-27-29 N. 2nd St., Richmond, Va. A. B. B. L. JORDAN Secretary-Manager Southern Aid Society of Virginia The Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc., has had an annual income of over $800,000.00 p e r year for several years and the in- come will soon reach the million dollar mark. These funds are largely deposited in colored banks and hence insure stability to them and also provide means to foster all other colored enterprises and activities. The Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc., has prospered and succeeded during the past 32 years because it has always given liberal and satisfactory service to its policy-holders, and likewise encouragement and support to all worthy race efforts. Lawrenceville Lawrenceville, V.A.-Brunswick Lodge, No. 108, A. F. and A. M. gave their first semi-annual entertainment. Friday evening, October 2, in honor of their wives, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Wall. Church street. The rooms were beautifully decorated with cat flowers and ferns. Games and music were enjoyed, after which a very delicious two-course repast was served.

The installation exercises which will last throughout the entire week, began at Moore Street Baptist Church Sunday morning. Rev. Gordon B. Hancock, who is instructor in theology at the Va.

A wonderful program, which includes in the list some of the leading ministers and singers and other prominent persons, has been arranged and large crowds are looked for during the week. Dr. Hancock is a wonderful speaker and a man of splendid talent and it is generally believed that he will make a successful leader of this flock. Wind Blows Man.Down Wind Blows Main Down It isn't very often that the wind blows hard enough to knock a man down but that is just what happened Saturday morning at the corner of Ninth and Main streets when a man weighing in the neighborhood of 200-pounds was swept off his feet just as he tuned the corner, bring met by a gale of wind that blew down Ninth street at a terrific rate. The man toppled over and in falling knocked a woman down also. New Apartments New Apartments Judging from the latest discussions heard here and there on the subject of the housing condition here, opinions are divided as whether or not it is being relieved by constant building of new "flats" for the colored people all over town. For a long time there has been a bus and cry, aentent the housing situation, not so much because there were not enough houses as it was because the houses that were available were too small and the people had to live in such cramped quarters. According to the idea of some prominent women who were heard discussing the matter, the new apartments are of the little three room type with rooms almost too small to be of any service. Consequently a family is as much cramped now as formerly. Band Parade The Community Concert band under the direction of Mr. Thomas N. Barrett has been superbly uniformed, and turned out Monday night to 'chisten' the new stuff; and it really was christened for a slight rain set in about the time they, were to parade, but this did not dampen the ardor of the musicians who fell in line and did their stuff, parading around several blocks in connection with the Bon Bon Puzzles who were playing at the Reformer's Hall. NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE he City of Richm This band, which is a remnant of the old Municipal band, under new management, and with the addition of several young and accomplished musicians, bids fair to make a name for itself as great or greater than that once held by the old band. Mr. Barrett is a leader of the new type, being a plucked musician himself, promises soon to have a band that will fill a long felt want here in the city. They are rehearsing weekly at the rooms of the Subbath Glee Club. Mrs. Artena J. Miller, one of the pioneer business women of this city, has gone to Hot Springs, Ark, for her health, which began to fail her several months ago. Mrs. Miller, who for a number of years was manager of Miller's Hotel and part owner of the Giltmore Hotel, and was also grand secretary of the Order of St. John Watchman, was among the first to successfully present high class musical artists to the people of this city. Sent To Asylum To their eternal shame, some of the people of Richmond, for some time patronized a doctor named Johnson who recently was not only proved to be not a doctor, but a fake and crazy in the bargain. A few weeks ago this man was sent to the insane asylum following a trial after an operation on a person which caused his death. Richmond has a coterie of splendid physicians, all graduates of accredited schools; all having had practical experience; and are capable of taking care of any situation that might arise, that requires medical skill, yet there are people who are foolish enough to patronize any and everybody who may have the nerve to hang out a sign and say I'm a doctor. After A Hospital After A Hospital The Sarah G. Jones Memorial Hospital committee, who have been campaigning for same time for funds with which to build a much needed hospital in the city where medicines can practice, is planning to launch a new drive in an endeavor to raise the desired amount. They believe now that Richmond will rally to the cause and before very long they will be able to start the building of the new hospital. Many people in the city do not know that the ground which lies adjacent to the Va. Union University had already been purchased and that now it is up to the citizens of Richmond to do their share. Most uncivilized tribes are unfamiliar with any form of vehicle. hern Virg Congrat er Agricul Achievement in the Handicra ing the past 32 years the Protection and Servi AGENCIES: S. B. Noble. S. B.

The Atlantis Constitution, tells the cotton planters of the South, particularly those in the drought area. A few farmers can raise a sufficient amount of weevils to affect other farmers soone or later. No individual can afford to wait on his neighbor, says the Constitution. This paper continues: "Just now there is a message to cotton farmers that ought to be shouted from every housetop, especially within the drought territory. "The farmers have most of their cotton picked and the recent rains have loosened the soil so that they have the best opportunity since the invasion of the weevil for plowing under the cotton stalks. Stalks are small and the season is carly. The recent rains, however, are creating a new growth, which will consume the fertilizer now in the soil and feed weevils until frost. "Stalk destruction now is one of the greatest needs in order to produce a good cotton crop next year with little or no boll weevil damage."

Opportunity Magazine says: "Self preservation has forced the Negro into his present position, and no force at the command of the capitalists can keep him from taking his rightful place among the proletariat of the world." --- It is said that the Douglass National Bank of Chicago, started in 1922, has 17,000 savings depositors, 2,000 commercial depositors, with resources of over $1,000,000. Anthony Overton is the financial wizard of the bank. He is also interested in other financial concerns of the race, and is said to be a real financial genius. We hope so.

The students appear to resent Prohibition enforcement, as many grown-ups do, as an infringement on their personal rights. There are several movements on foot to have Congress modify existing laws and methods of enforcement for the suppression of the sale and use of intoxicants, and there may be some legislation on the subject by the next Congress. The condition of affairs could hardly be more costly, demoralizing and ineffective than it is now. A. Loss and Gain Not so long ago it was announced that Mr. W. O. Saunders, editor and owner of the Elizabeth City (N. C.) Independent had been called to New York to become an associate editor of Collier's Weekly. The JOURNAL AND GUIDE hailed the announcement as a victory for the South, particularly the Negroes of the South, as Mr. Saunders was big enough and honest enough to interpret some things related to the South and the Negro race in terms not often experienced in the editorial offices of great national publications like Collier's. Now, Mr. Saunders announces that he is going to return to Elizabeth City, his beloved country town, of his own free will and accord, because he feels that his greatest interests are there and that his greatest opportunities for real service lie in the editing and making bigger of his own Independent. To paraphrase what they say sometimes in writing obituaries "New York's loss is our gain." It is good to have a man like Mr. Saunders in New York, where everything is hard-boiled, but it is better to have him in the South where everything is scrambled. He will re-engage in the work in which he pioneered of liberalizing thought in this section of the country, teaching tolerance and living progress. Welcome back home. Editorial Page of Tidewater Agricultural Fair The Tidewater Agricultural Fair Association which will hold its sixteenth annual exhibit in Suffolk October 20-23 inclusive, has done much to stimulate better farming, to improve rural life and to aid education generally throughout the Tidewater Virginia counties. The fair this year promises to surpass any previous event of the association's efforts to expand its influence and benefits through the cooperation of farm extension agents having been successful. Cooperative extension work in agriculture and home economics will be seen at its best at the Suffolk fair. It is the opinion of many careful observers of the times that agriculture offers for the Negro the best economic opportunity. Ownership of land is to be desired for many reasons, and the scientific cultivation of it offers the widest avenues of advancement in America. Any agency or movement that encourages land ownership and better farming is deserving of the utmost support. The Tidewater Agricultural Fair Association is in the vanguard of a movement that is destined to become nation-wide. James B. Duke The nation lost a power in the business world and the South particularly a great benefactor in the death of Mr. James B. Duke. He made a great fortune, largely by the wise manipulation of a Southern agricultural product—tobacco—and he returned much of that fortune to the South, in the development of a great hydro-electric power system and in benefactions to educational institutions, hospitals and public health work and orphanages. Mr. Duke was broad-guaged in his benefactions, making them without regard to race or creed. His largest gift—$40,000,000—was for the endowment of Duke University, a Methodist institution, but he gave liberally to colleges of other denominations. He was generous in his gifts to institutions of the Negro race. Among his largest benefactions last year were the permanent endowment of Johnson C. Smith University at Charlotte, N. C.; $200,000 to Kittrell College, at Kittrell, and $20,000 to the colored orphanage at Oxford, N. C. For years Mr. Duke had made his home in New Jersey, but he maintained a keen interest in the Carolinas, where his largest business interests were situated, and in the people, white and colored of those states, who will always hold him in reverent memory. The Bus Transportation Problem Whatever the merits of the unified bus system, a referendum election on which will be held on November 17th, it contains one element of doubt, which will cause the electorate representing about thirty per cent of the population of the city to do some thinking before they vote in favor of the new plan. It will be remembered that all of the area east of Church street and north of Princess Anne Road, embracing probably seventy-five percent of the colored residential district had no transportation facilities whatever until the Colored Jitney Bus Association supplied them. It is a historic fact that the Virginia Railway and Power Company has always been deaf when any suggestions were made for extending its traction facilities to the rapidly growing colored residential sections in the territory named. Lindenwood, Washington Heights and Villa Park came into being and blossomed. and the Virginia Railway and Power Company took up its tracks on North Church street, removing the slight access that residents of these districts had to them. Women and men employed in the Western section of the city could get to their work about as quickly as they can go to Suffolk now. In order to do so they had to travel a carefully executed circuit of the entire business section of the city. What little relief that was ever applied to this condition was furnished by the Colored Jitney Bus Association. The traction company has given no assurances that it will even continue transportation facilities in the area named. The prospects of having the jitneys removed by the so-called unified plan is not a very cheerful one. "The Negro In The News" "The Negro in the News The Roanoke Times furnishes additional evidence that the white press is giving serious thought to the need of more tolerance and exactness in the handling of news reports concerning members of the Negro race. In an editorial which is reprinted on this page today, the Times discusses the position taken recently by the Virginian-Pilot and warmly endorses the expressed and implied wish of the Norfolk paper that the future might witness "less exploitation of Negro crime and greater publicity to Negro achievement." The Times remarks what has been in the minds of thoughtful colored people for a long time, that "in the past. Negro achievement has not been given its due in the matter of full recognition at the hands of the white press; on the other hand, Negro crime has been exploited, possibly even beyond its full news value." A reader addresses a letter to the editor of this paper, which is also printed on this page today, in the course of which he expresses the hope that the white press will abandon the use of the small "n" in printing the word Negro in their news and editorial columns. That practice by the Richmond papers was, in the opinion of this correspondent, the only thing that marred the great Elks convention which Richmond entertained so lavishly and praised so cordially in August. Every Negro that is capable of writing his racial title or designation at all writes it with a capital "N", for the reason that he has been taught to respect it, to dignify it, and to elevate it above the commonplace. It is the accepted name of a distinct race, and the only arguments that can be advanced against the use of it as a proper noun are of the most technical nature. Moreover, the spelling of the word in print with a small "n" has been done more in deference than for purposes of identification, and this is an abuse which every member of the race wishes to have corrected. Another still more objectionable practice on the part of many newspapers is the use of the term "negress," placing the women of the race on a parity with "tigress" or "lioness." Nothing more offensive to the self-respecting members of the race could be printed. Both the Virginian-Pilot and the Roanoke Times agree that more consideration will be given Negroes in the handling of news when members of the race become more numerous as newspaper readers. That is something for Negroes to think about as an effective instrument for bringing about the relief desired. And, in the purely economic aspects of the question it should be worth while for the newspapers to encourage Negroes to read more by treating them fairly in their news and editorial columns. Spirit of the Press The Negro In The News From the tabular times. Why is it, "asks the NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE, a Negro newspaper which in the estimation of the Virginien-Pilsit "is edited with intelligence, discrimination and fine restraint" "why is it," asks the Journal AND GUIDE, "that the same white newspaper that dismissed with a few lines and a small caption the death of Henry Lincoln Johnson one of the most eminent political leaders of the colored race, gave liberal space and a hold black head to the news of the arrest of a 'colored alleged burghar?'" The Journal AND GUIDE confesses that it can see in this only "another phase of Southern psychology which Negroes do not comprehend." The Virginian-Pilot treats the protest with the seriousness that it deserves. Conceding trudily that the problem thus brought up "is an old one" and one to which it does not pretend to know a satisfactory explanation, the Virginian-Pilot suggests a future in which there will be "less exploitation of Negro crime and greater publicity for Negro achievement." In fairness to the Negro race the coming of that day is to be desired and all reputable journals will do what they can to hasten its advent. Attempting to answer more specifically the question raised in the instance cited by its colored contemporary, the Virginian Pilot makes the point that "Since the general rule holds that a story is worth for the newspapers what it is worth for its readers, it is to be expected that the obituaries of Negro politicians, eminent and worthy though they may have been, will not be gone into at length for a body of readers for whom he holds only casual interest. "Crime," it goes on to point out, "of course, has a direct human appeal, regardless of color, nativity or origin." This much by way of reply to the JOURNAL AND GUIDE's query; then to the constructive side of the question: "Let the Negroes of a community begin to figure in force as a body of advertisement and news readers, and economic law will see to it that the newspapers will not unduly slight the legitimate news in which they are interested." It is no new problem, so far as Southern newspaperdom is concerned. On the contrary, it is one to which conscientious editors' mindful alike of their responsibility to their reading public and the obligation resting upon them to deal fairly and justly with all, have devoted a great deal of thought and study, without—let it be frankly admitted—conspicuous success thus far in their efforts to reach an equitable and just solution. In the past Negro achievement has not been given its due in the matter of full recognition at the hands of the white press; on the other hand, Negro crime has been exploited, possibly even beyond its full news value. In the fact that a conscious effort is being put forth at the present time by representative journals North and South allie to treat the Negro fairly and accord him something approximating rightful consideration in the news columns lies substantial ground for hope on his part of better treatment in the future than in the past. Harvest Time for "The Man With the Hoe" An Appeal For Civilization An Appeal For Civilization (Editorial in "The State." Columbia, S.C. Commenting on the recent barbarous action in Union County, Mississippi, where a Negro was burned at the stake, The Weekly Times, a Negro newspaper published at Memphis, makes this appeal for protection and justice: "We do not condone crime. We want to see every criminal punished to the limit of the law, regardless of color; but we do want punishment meted out by law, the courts. We appeal to the best blood of the South for protection and justice. We appeal to the thousands of white ministers for condemnation of such acts. We appeal to the governor and all officers of the law for punishment of the guilty. We appeal to every agency for making sentiment, that the ends of justice may be served, and that right quickly. "This act does not and cannot meet the approval of all the white people of Mississippi. There is pity, there is shame and there is passive condemnation; but these will not remedy the condition. There must be an active program to the end that such deeds may not occur again, not only in the State of Mississippi, but in the bounds of this great nation." That appeal must be heard and heeded. What is at stake here is not the lives of the few persons who may be annually done to death by mobs in savage frenzy, but the character of the people; the reputation of a section whose Letters to the Editor Richmond Convention Left Only One Regretful Memory Editor Journal and Guide. Sir.: Whether the jump from Pittsburgh last year to Richmond this year was prophetic foresight on the part of those who nominated and of those who voted for it. as the place for the 26th annual convention of the Colored Ellis, remain to be seen. History will check this, and place upon it the proper appraisal, and as one of the delegates to this remarkable gathering of Negroes from every State in the Union, I believe it to have been the greatest thing that has happened with respect to vacial matters since the discovery of America by Columbus, and the gallant survivor at Appomattox, despite a bitterness in the convention hall, only paralleled by the Democratic Convention at Madison Square Garden one year before. The Colored people, strangers from every part of this country, numbering over one hundred thousand, not only deported themselves in such a man- Saturday, October 17, 1925 governors claim civilization and capacity for orderly government. capacity for safety. Governance Acts like that in Union County, Mississippi, bring shame and degradation upon the whole South. If they are to cease, public opinion in the South must everywhere cease to be passive. Press and pulpit must perform their parts, actively and vigorously. As the Memphis paper says, "There is pity—there is shame and there is passive condemnation, but those will not remedy the conditions." Only the fear of punishment impresses the barbarous, and punishment of lynchers is only possible where public opinion holds those charged with the operation of the machinery of the law responsible for its proper execution. When a human being is burned at the stake and the criminals escape punishment the county and state in which the crime occurs are blackened in reputation, but they are not the only sufferers. It is a blow against the whole South, and that whole South should protest. And the time to effectively fortify our states against the possibility of such occurrences as that in Union County, Mississippi, is now. It can not be said in any state. "We are holier than thou," until so strong a sentiment 'for law is known to exist there that we can have faith in its dominating influence. Actually, the appeal quoted above is not in behalf of Negroes but of the governing whites of the South. There's the degradation and shame. ner as to call forth the highest praise from the highest officers of the State, the press and the citizens as a whole, but unconsciously—by their conduct, put at rest for all time the oft repeated assertion that the South was not friendly disposed toward the Negro. As a Virginian, native born, I am taking this opportunity of saying that I believe the great body of Colored Elks, with their liberal tenets, hold to a large extent, the future of the Negroes of this country, and the Richmond Convention has cleared the doubting mists of racial friction forever. It would be a good thing for the race to hold future conventions in other Southern Capitals, for as Richmond in the past represented the South, so in the present her magnificent spirit of race tolerance has taken a lead that makes for a greater and more perfect understanding between the races. The writer had the distinction of bringing the Grand Lodge of Elks to Norfolk in 1914. Eleven years have made a great difference, numerically and otherwise since that time, but the spirit of Virginia was displayed then and Richmond has enhanced it.

Thousands of automobiles choked the streets but the traffic officials were at all times courteous and human. As Richmond, the Capital of the Southern Confederack, where the greatest man of the Lost Cause fought and sought to retain slavery, has set up new standards of social justice, it marks a new era in the lives of Negroes in the whole country. There is only one regret—or may be, criticism—I have to offer. The Press of the city gave unstinted praise to my people, but encouched in their reports was the word Negro spelled with a small "n". If Richmond could set a precedent for our considerate treatment; if one hundred thousand Negroes could gather in a strange place and win such praise, would it be requesting too much that in newspapers the Negro should be referred to with a capital "N"? This is not asking too much in view of the fact that many of the greatest papers have adopted this policy. Richmond has set a precedent in racial tolerance, let us as a race have fuller sympathy in having the stigma of inferiority removed—which is after all, a system of humiliation. ```markdown ``` HOME AND KITCH SUGGESTIONS Department of Education and ination for the Household —Edited By— MARION JANE PARKER, Inc.
