TYNES IS INDICTED FOR MURDER June Grand Jury Finds True Bill Against Linden w o o d Man In Connection With Death of Mrs. Lenora Tynes An indictment charging first degree murder was returned against John L. Tynes by the June grand jury of the Corporation Court Monday, in connection with the death of his wife, Mrs. Lenora Tynes, which occurred on the night of May 6, following an alleged alteration between her and her husband on the front porch of their home, 2422 Middle street, Lindenwood. The Tynes murder attracted wide-spread attention at the time on account of the prominence of the principals in the trial which is set for June 25, in Corporation Court No. 1 is being keenly watched. It is reported that friends of the accused husband are making strenuous efforts to clear him of the murder charge. The case will be stubbornly fought by both the Commonwealth and the defense, it is rumored. Tynes has declined to talk to anyone except his counsel since his arrest, and the sort of plea that will be made in his defense remains undisclosed. A crowd of courtroom is expected when the case is called for trial. It is quite generally admitted that the alleged wordings of Mrs. Tynes will constitute the prosecution's trump card, while the failure of anyone to hear the shot fired that killed her or to find the weapon with which she was killed will play an important part in the defense. POLICE BAFFLED IN EFFORTS TO FIND SLAYER Police are baffled in their efforts to identify the slayer of Sinclair McLeese, about 30 years old, of 719 Wide street, whose lifeless form was found in an alley beside 981 Smith street at 12:20 a.m. sunday morning. He had been shot to death. Upon investigation Detective Novitzky obtained a statement from the Smith street address, who told the officer that they had not retired when the shooting in the alley occurred. They said just before the pistol shot rang out they heard Sinclair and another man talking in the alley in even tones, there being nothing heard to indicate a quarrel. Suddenly, these people detected the appearance of the pistol was heard in the row of their home and the body of the slain man lying on the ground, but the other person whom she had not seen was HOV HOWARD WILL STUDY ISLANDS AT CLOSE RANGE WILL STUDY ISLANDS AT CLOSE RANGE Senate Committee Will Survey Laws and Customs of Virgin Islands Before Action of Civil Government Bill.

Carter Declare Deliberately Facts In Elk Richmond, Va., June 8- against him by Harry H. Pace statement last week concerni James T. Carter, grand treasur ment here today declaring that misrepresentation of the facts Carter Declares That Pace Deliberately Misrepresents Facts In Elks Controversy Richmond, Va., June 8—Replying to the charges made against him by Harry H. Pace, of New York, in a published statement last week concerning the conduct of his office, James T. Carter, grand treasurer of the Elks, issued a statement here today declaring that Pace "is guilty of a deliberate misrepresentation of the facts." For the past three weeks there has been an exchange of charges and refutations in the public press between Pace who is a candidate for grand secretary of the Order at the Cleveland convention in August, and Carter, present grand treasurer, precipitated by the former's recent charges that the funds of the Order had not been wisely deposited. Mr. Carter, in concluding his statement of today intimates that he will, with its publication, withdraw from the controversy in the public press, declaring "I am unwilling to contend with the controversy which most inevitably 'bring reproach upon the Order'. I shall submit my case to the Grand Lodge assembled at Cleveland, and I am not afraid." His statement in full follows: "The article which Harry Pace publishes over his signature in the Pittsburgh Courier of June 5th, 1826, (which some one has dignified by styling it an "Answer" to my letter of May 24th) convinces me of the utility of wasting time on one so insensible to the most ordinary rules of fair play. Not one word in his long and puerile diatribe explains why he made the following statements:— CHARGES PACE MAKES AGAINST JAMES T. CARTER Among some of the things alleged against James T. Carter, grand treasurer of the Elks, by Harry H. Pace, a statement published the Pittsburgh Courier of last week, and which Mr. Carter refutes in this issue of this newspaper are in Mr. Pace's own words are follows: "I have the right to say, and I herewith say it, that Brother Carter too, has been in his office too long. He too, feels that the position which he did nothing to earn belongs to him, and that the Order of Elks owes him the job. If Brother Carter was the only able man, or the only honest man or the only rich man in the Order, there might be some excuse for his holding office for life. But there are hundreds of men who are "The Order of Elks has $100,000 in cash. $50,000 of which is on deposit in two white banks in Richmond, Virginia. One of these banks pays no interest whatever on a $17,000-deposit they have had for nearly ten years, while another pays two per cent. on $34,000,000 that has been with them for a long time." "I have sought for many years to have this money properly invested or to be distributed for deposit among the worthy banking institutes operated by our own people. There are only two obstacles in the way." Of these is the Grand Secretary and the other is the Grand Treasurer, both of whom have blocked every effort to put any of this money in colored banks." NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JUNE 12, 1926 Darrow Gives Race Pointers Nashville, Tenn., June 11—The race problem as it affects the Negroes in the United States, was discussed by Clarence Darrow, of Chicago, before Fisk University students at their chapel here, Wednesday, following completion of the Scopes' hearing before the supreme court. Mr. Darrow said he disliked to give one advice, but that Negroes might as well understand that they must get education and continue striving for it. He also encouraged them to attempt to start independent businesses. The outlook is very good," he told the Negro students. "You have something to live for; you have something to work for and that is about all that you can want, anyway." He deplored existing racial prejudice, and declared that it was almost universal in the south and "little better in the north." Major Ernest Cox Speaks In Campostella Major Ernest Sevier Cox, of Richmond, author of "White America," and prime mover in the Anglo-Saxon Clubs of America, addressed the Campostella Division of the Universal Improvement Association Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The hall was filled to overflowing and many were turned away. Major Cox gave a speech which some of his hearers have since characterized as splendid. He was presented by H. Sampson Parker. es That Pace Misrepresents Controversy Replying to the charges made, of New York, in a published ing the conduct of his office, over of the Elks, issued a state-Pace "is guilty of a deliberate" CHARGES PACE MAKES AGAINST JAMEST.CARTER Among some of the things alleged against James T. Carter, grand treasurer of the Elks, by Harry H. Pace, in a statement published in the Pittsburgh Courier of last week, and which Mr. Carter refutes in this issue of this newspaper are in Mr. Pace's own words as follows: "I have the right to say, and I herewish say it, that Brother Carter too, has been in his office too long. He too, feels that the position which he did nothing to canary, has been in his office. Order of Elks owes him the job. If Brother Carter was the only able man, or the only honest man or the only rich man in the Order, there might be some excuse for his holding office for life. But there are hundreds of men who are just as honest, just as rich, and just as capable of holding the office which he has held as he. And in any fraternal organization when any man or group of men arrogate to themselves the divine right to a life tenure of office and consider it a crime for any other member of that order to oppose them, then that organization getting onto dangerous ground. "Brother Carter says he has never been a candidate for the office. He has been active career candidate with the White House, who he professes that he is letting the office seek him. Well, I nappe to know that the Riehmann by his local friends and many others "to save Carter," and the fear was that they would change all down the line. "Brother Carter assures that I have never entertained such an assumption, but I do assert that I know as much about the real history of women in the White House. Brother Carter desires to exchange some more statements, with me, I can tell the truth."

SHOOTS AND KILLS HIMSELF SHOOTS AND KILLS HIMSELF Believed to have become delirious from prolonged and intense suffering caused by illness, Johnnie Miller, 22, 438 Lewis street, shot and killed himself, Thursday at 12 o'clock, during a moment when his mother had left his sick room to go down stairs for a bowl of soup for him. The young man had been sick all of the winter, members of his family state, and in the past several days had been confined closely to his room under the canopy of a physician. No one had the least intimation that his mind had been deranged to the extent of putting it unsafe for him to be left alone momentarily. His body was turned over to undertaker Hale. Johnnie Miller was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Willie McGowens and the grandson of Mrs. L. Miller, a well-known midwife. Rev.

Dead And Injured As a result of the accident, O. W. Pozey, whose address was given as the Martha Washington Hotel, Virginia Beach, is dead; Hattie Hill and Howard Walston are badly injured, while Jordan Hill, William E. Gray, and Emma Walston are suffering from bruises and shock. Gray's address also was given as a Virginia Beach Hotel, while Walston and the Hills live in South Norfolk. The men who gave Virginia Beach Hotel addresses are believed to be employed at these hostelries. Walston, driver of the death car, was placed under arrest by officers investigating the accident and lodged in the Portsmouth jail on a charge of manslaughter. Hill and Gray were locked up as material witnesses, while Pozy died some time after being carried to St. Vincent's Hospital. His body, with one leg and one arm virtually cut off and his head terribly mashed lies in the Norfolk city morgue. All of those arrested have since been released on bail. Campostella road in the county limits is unlighted and it is believed that the occupants failed to see the passing train at the crossing until too close upon it for the driver to apply the brakes on his car in time to avert the crash, and owing to the sound of the motor they evidently failed to hear the rumbling of the train. Hit Train On End The freight train which was drawn by Virginia Railway locomotive No. 127,971 and in charge of Conductor J. S. Brinkley and engineer W. M. Martin, had almost cleared the crossing when struck by the automobile, the car hitting it between the last gondola and the caboose. The impact was terrific and the moving train crumpled the automobile like so much paper. The parry was thrown in the air. --- ALL NEWS THAT'S WORTH READING PRICE 7 CENTS PORTER HOOD STILL HERE ON LEAVE Mystery SurroundsProtracted Stay In This Country of Minister To Liberia; No Explanation Offered. RUMOR OF FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES DENIED Washington, D. C., June—Solomon Porter Hood, minister to Liberia, is still on leave. That is the only reason the State Department would give for his protracted stay in this country. When Minister Hood first returned to the United States from Liberia, illness was assigned as the reason for his return. The report has since become current that he is involved in financial difficulties. State Department Speaks The State Department has no knowledge of any financial difficulties in which he may be involved. If deferred Monday, such matters would be purely personal, it is said, and the State Department would not be interested in them. Meanwhile there is pending legislation to increase the salary of the minister to Liberia from $5,000 to $10,000 a year. The enactment of this legislation has been urged by President Coolidge. In the report of the then acting Secretary of State, Joseph C. Grew, it was stated that "with the cost of living at Monrovia for a foreign being in the United States, it is impossible for the American minister, unless he be a man of large means, to meet the requirements of diplomatic life and his family necessities on the small salary now granted to the post." The State Department does not know when Mr. Hood intends to return to his post in Liberia.

The dolls were dressed by Miss Jennie Dudley. The other invited guests present were as follows: Messrs. E. R. Archer, Allan Brown, Jesse Lewis, George Jackson, Curtis Braswell, David King, Samuel King, J. E. Watkins, Jerome Wilson, Owen Wilson, William Colden, W. H. Webb, C.

GUIDE NEWSBOYS ORGANIZE Thirty-four Journal and Guide newsboys met at the Boys' Club on Washington avenue, Wednesday night from 7:30 to 8:30 as guests of the Guide at which time a Journal and Guide Newsboys Club organizer with George Moore, president, Walter Bowers, president; Bernard Bower, secretary; and Thomas Frazier, assistant secretary. Mr. Ernest Walton, of the Guide Staff, will serve as treasurer of the club. Mr. Puryear, also of the Guide staff, assisted the boys in perfecting their organization. After the business was concluded, which besides organizing consisted of a brief lecture by Mr. Puryear, ice cream and cake were served. The members of the club are: Joseph White, L. Edward Webb, Robert Harris, T. mas Wright, Henry Beslow, H. Henry Brooks, J. Bruce Wright, Milton Baxter, C. M. Hinton, James Holloway, Levi Sutton, James Smith, Milton Austin, V. Goodman, Granville Quill, Johnny Beslow, Richard Owens, Samuel Sears, Walter Owens, Thomas Ward, Pierce M. Thompson, Bernard Hill, Maurice Washington, Nathaniel White, Levi Johnson, Carlton Thompson, John Wood, James Randall, Alvin Gregory and Clarence Sears. The members of this club are receiving their first lessons in practical salesmanship—the fundamental element in all business—through lectures given them from time to time by P. B. Young, editor of the Journal and Guide, and other members of the staff who have had experience in the business world. These lectures included talks on manner of approach to customers, sales talks, manliness, honesty, self-confidence and good manners. It is the purpose of the Guide to watch very closely the progress of this club and if its members prove themselves sincere, provisions for athletic facilities will be made for them some time later. In the meeting, the public is especially asked, to remember that everyone of these boys must pay for every paper he distributes and for that reason, when a customer fails to pay a newsboy for his paper the boy himself is the loser.

CARTER (Continued from Page One) may be a little less pleasant to read than what I am writing now. I know, for instance, what any good historian ought to know who keeps an accurate record, about a certain midnight deal in Brother Carter's office in Richmond, last August, which caused the Virginia delegation to switch its support over to Wilson, and then the reason for that change, and I know the amount of money involved. I know that the rank and file of the Virginia delegates didn't know why they were suddenly ordered to vote differently from what they had been told to vote previously, and that back of it was the object of Carter and keep in Richmond. the money. Brother Carter asserts that he has put any money in a bank that did not pay at least three per cent interest. Maybe the date is the date. But on page 46 of the minutes appears a statement of the banks. In the case of the Virginia Trust Company, there was a balance of $38,494.78 the close of the Purchase, with a difference of amounting to $37,377.88 made during the year, making a total of balance of deposits of $74,488.61 during the year, then withdrawn balance of $89,485.83, and balance of $6,483.76 at the time the account was made. Now multiply the average balance in the banks by per cent the interest this same page says that interest credited to the account ! $76,000. A nice little difference. But Brother Carter says that the bank "paid at least 3 per cent interest." but they don't look like interest to me. 3. How may I ask Brother Carter just why he made these two particular white banks the favorites that he did, when he might have put some more money in PROPRIETY than the other obsoleted banks in Richmond. Why did he feel that he had to concentrate all the Elk money in Richmond or even Virginia? He asserts that I opposed him at Newark in 1922, because of the nondedged funds. He did not state that both of those banks that failed were in Virginia, also. I assert that it is not businesslike to concentrate the funds in one bank or any one of them, any one of them. We did not Brother Carr come some more money in the bank of which he is president, under promise safeguards? It would have been a perfect natural and proper thing to Didn't he have more money in the bank? Didn't he have more confidence in the white banks about which management he could surmise? No the reason is very different and I know that reason. But I shalt ask your answer ever and every day in Brotherhood of why you didn't. "Brother Carter assures that when the two Virginia Banks failed in 1922, that he made good the loss with his personal check. Brother Carter did make a nice gesture of doing so, and maybe he found some of the folks then and maybe he is still doing so today, selling only half the truth. He neglected to say that his check which he sent the grand secretary was NEVER DEPOSITED by Hates, and Bates told him in so many words "to forget it," and that when never came up in his life, the grand lodge itself sustained the loss. As the 'historian,' which you call me Jimmie! I know that you know are lying when you say 'you paid the loss.' (Continued from Page One) out of a desire to deceive the unthinking and play to the grandstand. He dares not attempt to justify these statements; he evades the issues he. formerly raised, namely, as to how the Order's funds were deposited, as to the interest earned on same and as to my being an obstacle and had blocked every effort to put any of this money in colored banks. "Pace tries to show that the interest paid by the Virginia Trust Company on the Grand Lodge's deposit in that insti- Royal Ice Cream Company Fresh Strawberries in our Cream 342 E.

Face the balance at the end of the year. Face the lodge year 1925 and find at the close of the lodge year 1925 the three per cent. for the entire year, which as a matter of fact, the balance fluctuated during the entire year and at one time was less than $21,000.10. I shall not be forgotten fundamentals for because has forgotten fundamentals for because has lessly entangled in the wilderness of words with which he has burned the Pittsburgh Courier of this week. The criticism as to how the funds are distributed in banks, I quote from my reply of May 24th, 1925, to first attack on me, the following:— "Ever since I have been Grand Treasurer, I have never selected a permanent deposition without submitting the name of the bank, and any information I had as to its condition first to the Grand Exalted Ruler and the Grand Secretary for their approval. This is also a matter of record both as the grand of the Grand Lodge and in the correspondence in the correspondence and myself. . . . and such selections as were made were the result of the unanimous decision of these officers," namely, the then Grand Exalted Ruler, Grand Secretary and myself, afterwards ratified by such Grand Secretary to which such decisions were reported. "It therefore, follows that Pace's criticalism of the banks in which the Order's funds are distributed is a criticism, not a criticism, of the bank, but of the GRAND LODGE ITSELF. "In this connection too, I invite Mr. Pace's attention to the following excerpts from my report made to the Grand Lodge Ehs at Newark, N. J., August 23rd 922: "Being, in a small way, a promoter of segro enterprises, my first and strongest inclination, of course, was to patronize segro, that is, to be the leading thing, that, in a great organization like his, there were, naturally, two elements—first, those who feared for the safety of our funds if entrusted solely with Negroes, and secondly, those who did not fear the danger of being taken to both elements by putting our funds with both races, looking first to the strength and stability of the institutions in determining the quantity of our funds we deposited in each; and this situation we have deposited in our funds have been deposited in white institutions." "In the view of the拳拳 we all applaud from time to time urging us to support Negro enterprises," she took you in the face and I not patronized Negro obanks. PERSONALLY, I take possession that we should be willing to win or lose all the little we have in such institutions, if we ever expect the race to be realized that in a matter of this sort, it was not my personal wishes, but the wishes and best interests of those I was serving that had to control my course." "The Grimo Dalmato itself ratified these views by this report without the least modification.

"The Grand Lodge ordered no change, thus further proving the course of the three officers above named. Further comment is unnecessary." "And that there took place in my office during the convention last year a certain 'midnight deal' which caused the Virginia Delegation to switch its support over night from Steele to Johnson, and that he knows the reason for that change and the amount of money involved." "I do not like to violate the properties of a public discussion by the use of offensive or abusive language; but I will say that if Pace means to link me up with any such deal, or to say that I had any knowledge whatever that any such deal was under consideration, had been, would be proposed for the use of these gentlemen, or, their representative, he is guilty of uttering another untruth. The conference referred to by Pace as a "midnight deal" (which really took place in a room provided for the Committee on Credentials and not in my office) was called by Pace himself and had nothinz whatever to do with the Virginia Delegation's support of any candidate nor with a conduct of the Grant of Treasuries ship. His statement that back of it will was the object "to save Carter and keep the money in Richmond" is, therefore, a pure invention. It was participated in by most of the Past Grand Exalted Rulers and some of the most distinguished and highly respected members of the Order. The conference was purely informal and, as I understood its object when approached by Pace to furnish a meeting place, was a necessary matter. It would restore peace and homogenization to the Grand Lodge of Elks. I can't believe that Harry of the case reckless as he has been in handling the truth, would charge that any of these men were willing to accept a bribe, sell their honor or could be influenced by the Tea-Hee A big, cold glass of Che-On 60c Tea will make you smile, giggle and laugh with delight—genuine 80c value!

The Virginia Delegation to the Richmond Convention was composed of men of high intelligence and honor. These acquaintances were appointed at decisions only after mature consideration of the issues involved in the caucuses of the delegation which, I am assured, will be held at the Reformers' Hall.

Rocap, chairman of the Pennsylvania Boxing Commission, who, before his elevation as the head of this state's boxing law, was considered a friend of Negroes as far as sports were concerned, but developed a tinge of hatred as soon as Charles Fred White, a Negro, was appointed on the Commission, was succeeded by Frank Weiner, another white man, as head of the commission. His advent as chairman was the beginning of a continued row with White, but he seemed to have met his match with the man appointed to look after the interest of his people in boxing matches. AFRICAN FIGHTER MEETS 2ND K. O. (By The Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., June 10—Jim Davis, the African fighter, scaling 175 pounds, lost his second bounce by the knockout route, when Sailor George Gennas, white, put him to sleep in the first round of his round scrap at "Kennedy's Three Acres" in West Manayunk Thursday night. Davis was to be going along nicely and it looked as if he was ready to be the winner, when he walked into one of Gemas' hard right-handers and dropped like a dog. Davis was cool and took the count, but was still weak when he got to his feet. Gemas tapped him on the jaw again, dropping him once more, and Referee Frank McCracken stopped the fight in order to save Davis from further punishment. Although beaten, the man from Africa was given a rousing cheer as he left the ring. RED SOX AND INFANTRY PLAY 13 INNINGS 9-9 Memphis, Tennessee 11 — The Memphis Red Sox, Southern League team, and the 24 Infant- ship team of Fort Banning, played a 13-inning tie Wednesday in the third game of the series, the count standing 9 to 9 at the end. Trammler, who relieved Vance in the second, pitched good ball, al- lowing but seven hits and three runs in 11 innings. The army team tied the score in the seventh and neither team counted after that stanza.

Queen and Bank Street TAIL-ENDERS BEGIN THEIR WINNING RALLY TAIL-ENDERS BEGIN THEIR WINNING RALLY (By The Associated Negro Press Memphis, Tenn., June 10— Things picked up in the Southern League this week when the Montgomery Grey Sox and the Atlanta Black Crackers came to life and broke their losing streaks. For four weeks these two outfits have struggled valiantly to remain in the cellar, with Montgomery, by the hardest, holding the last place. The worm turned this week and it really turned. Presenting rejuvenated and revamped organizations, the Grey Sox and Crackers played a brand of ball that could not be beaten. Memphis fell before the crushing attack of the Grey Sox twice and Nashville was taken into camp three times. Not to be outdone by their cellar neighbors, the Black Crackers trounced the fast-stopping Albany Giants twice and only the masterly hurling of the veteran pitcher and boss of the Giants, Big Bill Gatewood, stopped them in the third start. BALTIMORE SOX CLIMBING BACK BALTIMORE SOX CLIMBING BACK Baltimore, Md., June 10—The Baltimore Black Sox began their climb back to the lead in the Eastern League by annexing both ends of a double bill from the Newark Stars, winning the first game, 8 to 6, and nosing out in the second, 6 to 5. The hitting of Deco with who drove in a hotness the sixth featured, while the seminal playing of Connie Day at second stood out. He handled ten chances, with only two miscues. Jordan hurled a good game for Newark.

JOHNSON, JR. COLLEGE IDS OLYMN --- FROM PRESS By WILLEYA Anent The Greatest Middle weight In taking a fling at the greatest midditweight fighter or the greatest in any line of sports, many things must be considered. Some one has placed Tiger Flower, middleweight champion at the top of the list in regards to the greatest middleweight prize fighter. How far Flowers is from this or near to it, yet remains to be seen, despite the fact that he has experienced around eight years of box fighting, and also taken as assists to the canvas. Since the champion's climb to the top in his class, many glowing tributes have been paid him and many sesquipedalians have been used in the description of his ability. But we see this, only as a result of his singular achievement. Being the first Negro to reach the middleweight championship, one of the few southpaws to enjoy the honor, and the first Negro to a world's title since Jack Johnson held the heavyweight title, naturally would come in for praising. Notwithstanding these facts, the Georgia fighter is a long ways from approaching the realm where the great dwell in the glow and glamor of their past ring achievements. Flowers can't be placed above such men as Stanley Ketchell, former middleweight champion and the only man of his weight to knock Jack Johnson-off his feet; OLEGE Some joins say "Gone But Not Forgotten," while it should be a these modern times, "Corn But Not Forgotten." At this time of the year, June, when youth is so romantic and many are led to the altar, this advice should be repeated, Girls, don't marry and bring your children up the same way. Writing Prohibition has been a boon to many prohibition agents. That's why so many men seek to line up in this game that offers such a paltry sum in wages. Every man needs a living wage. If he doesn't get it, he bears watching. The government hires prohibition agents to watch out for bootleggers and now it needs to hire somebody to watch out for the agents. It's a paying game boys, batter jump in and get rich quick. It's a field of many opportunities, where the money flows as free as the liquor. It's just like fishing for dollars and getting a bit on every throw. When a prohibition agent catches a bootleger, he catches money. Who wouldn't want a job like that. You may bet your bottom dollar it, the honest fellows don't stay on the job. The agent that has kept his job since Volstead acted, in the guy that you can't trust behind a broom straw. One onlooker at a raiding scene advanced the question, 'Wonder does all the well-goods that's confiscated reach headquarters? You may lay to that. Most of it always reaches headquarters and headquarters it situated between the region of the belt and the third button on the vest. It's bounded on the north by the front of the shirt and on the south by the back of same shirt. It's bounded on the cast and west by the sides of self-same shirt. That's headquarters. It's the place the makers have in mind when they are a stilling.

Surely a great fighter and who deserves to reach the top in his class but lacks some of the potentialities of many of his predecessors. Out of the champion's eight dives to the rosin dust, it is claimed none of them was at the hands of middleweights. Is this to his credit or discredit considering the number of heavier men the past middleweights downed for the doleful count? The Tiger's record is not laden with K. O's. in his class or out. Of course, he has romped away easily to the long end of many decision bouts, and a fighter's greatness is largely measured by the knockouts to his credit. Flowers has also proved that he is quite vulnerable to a hard socking right-hander. It is unjust for anybody to dey a fighter of Flowers' ability and its not just to place him above those who have been proved better. However, this is not to detract from Flowers any of the credit to which he is rightly due. derdone, And the break was baked too brown; The pie was heavy, the pudding too sweet, And the meat was much too fat; The soup was so greasy, too, and salt.

BETTER HOMES FROM OLD HOUSES There are often times, in planning a house of your own, when it seems wiser to remodel than to build. Perhaps you have inherited an old house in good condition which you cannot afford to demolish; perhaps the lot which you want already has a house on it. Or perhaps, somewhere, you saw an old house which just took hold in your heart and your imagination and made you feel that it belonged to you, or rather that you belonged to you. When an old home has taken possession of you thus, you might just as well buy it and cart to renovate. You will never be so happy anywhere else. Remodeling an old house has a decoration all its own, a fact to be remembered when deciding to build or to alter. Very often a budget which would only suffice for the smallest plainest of new homes, will work wonders with an old house of good construction and leave something over for that business in which you are engaged.

Many of these old homes, ugly as they look outside, have a spaciousness within which is practically never found in the small house of today. They were built in an age when space and time were not such vital considerations as they have become today, and when material and labor were cheap. Because they were before the days of efficient furnices, they usually have fireplaces, lots of them, and the mantels and woodwork generally are beautifully hand-carved, something which is never attainable today without the spending of a fortune. So, if you find a house, which is in the main just what you want, within do not worry about the exterior, however, unpromising it looks at first. There is no house whether of the ginger-bread type of the mid-Victorian era, or the barnlike structure which is the plainest form of American farm-house type which cannot be made into a pleasing home with money and elbow grease applied with good taste. Some houses require more money and alteration than others, but the possibilities are infinite and the ultimate achievement is its own reward.

Address your inquiries to "Business Question Box," Journal and Guide, Norfolk, Va. Q. What is the stock and bond market going to do? - Student. A. Millions would like to know that, Student. Nobody knows. Lately the market has afforded no definite clue as to its immediate future course. The recent drop or 'Bear Market' was a warning against over inflation. The country has well heeded that warning, and the liquidation has about ceased; yet new buying power has been limited. The chances are that stocks will move along irregularly, now up, now down; without a violent or prolonged move in either direction. Then too, you must take in consideration the basic factors of economics, agriculture, industrial and commercial developments—the condition of these three always bring about a reaction in Wall street. Meanwhile, I think it is safe to expect advance in bonds. GUIDE POINTERS TO PROGRESS Any business large or small can't afford not to advertise. Some businesses think because they have reached a certain status, assume it is unnecessary to advertise. "Everyone knows where we are," they argue, "why advertise?" Advertising isn't done merely to let people know where you are. Whe is it that doesn't know the Standard Oil Co., sells gasoline, or that Woolworth has 5 and 100 stores, or that Ford makes cars, that Wrigley has chewing gum for sale, or that Coca Cola is a drink?

Good will for business is built by selling good goods, offering good service and telling of these thru truthful advertising.

This is a good month to put in your next winter's coal. Don't be too modest. Modesty, like most virtues can be carried too far. The balting of a jackass repels. But sincere enthusiasm, voiced in ringing terms, is contagious and can arouse respect and enthusiasm. Do something worth talking about—see it through; then don't shrink from talking about it. To convince the world, tell the world. Don't try to reach the front by stepping in front of others. We cannot be downright successful unless we are upright. A man hopelessly in debt is as helpless as a housefly with his feet in the tangle-foot; so easy to get in, but oh so hard to get out. Sincerity is the best policy.

Each debater gave a splendid production. The he rebuttals from both sides showed knowledge of the subject and also afforded the audience an insight into the contesting ability of the speakers. It was also a means of showing to the adults present, men and women, our duty to the boys of Norfolk, since they are to be the men of tomorrow. The Olympian debaters were: Willie Robinson and Colden Brown. The Athenian debaters: C. A. Palmer ir., and Van Buren Luke. The decision by the judges was a tie.

Eternal on Saturday, May 29, 1926, at his residence, 1238 Armstrong Street, after a long illness.

On Tuesday, June, the First, the funeral was led to First Calvary Baptist Church at 2:30 o'clock by The College Band and several organizations. Services were conducted by Rev. O. J. Allen, the pastor, who spoke of his quiet, christian character, and how willingly he would always discharge his duty when called on. Mr. Jerry Anderson rendered the first bass solo, taught by Prof T.

Puryear, Grand K of R. and S., Eugene West and Grand Medical Director, T. G. Elliott-left the city for Claremont, Virginia, where they established Claremont Lodge No. 273 Knights of Pythias. District Deputy G, C., G. W. Peace of Waverly, Va., who was the leading spirit in organizing this lodge, met us at the station and from there we motivated to Claremont. The above named officers with the assistance of several loyal knights from Waverly, put twenty-six strong and healthy men through the test that is required of all who become full knights. We then retired to another part of the building in which the ladies had prepared a tempting repast. Everyone present seemed to be of one accord that the repast was fit for a king.

This is the latest development in the conflict between the Board and the Union arising from the refusal of Eugene Gibney, director of Extension Activities, to permit Arthur Garfield Hays, and James Weldon Johnson to speak at a Peace Week celebration in the Morris High School on May 17, and the denial of the Union's application for a free speech meeting in the Stuyvesant High School on May 21.

It is a photodrama that will live in your memory as one of the finest stories of all time. "The Keeper of the Bees" is the finest story, Gene Stratton Porter ever wrote—sweet—warm — fresh — wholesome—powerful. WEDNESDAY There is a big treat in store for those picture geers who like strong society dramas, softened with pathos and leavened with laughter, when "Love's Bargain," an F. B. O. picture comes to the Attucks Theatre on Wednesday. The life of an actress, in and out of the theatre, is an interesting phase of the story, while tense drama results from the manipulations of a clever, unscrupulous woman to win back the love of a man she has lost. "BEHIND THE FRONT" BEHIND THE FRONT Wallace Beery and Raymond Hatton, the funniest comedy team on the screen, appear as daugherty buddies in "Behind the Front." Who doesn't remember Beery's comedy classic as "Rhode Island Red" in "The Pony Express?" Or the combined efforts of the two in "Adventure" and "In the Name of Love"? In "Behind the Front," they have combined all past performances, retaining the best features—plus, Mary Brian, Paramount's charming ingenee, is seen as the girl they both love. Chester Conklin, as the Scotch laddie, who entertains the boys with tales of imagined bravery, heads the strong cast appearing in support of the principals.

I am a girl 17 years of age, but I am not allowed to have boy company. Please answer these questions. If a girl loves a well-reared boy should she try to see him if it is against her mothers wishes? Should a boy come to see a girl once in awhile? If she wishes to have a boy come to see her should she let someone ask her mother or should she ask for herself? I know we girls should finish school before we have company and I am trying to finish, but don't think they would be alright if a nice boy came around sometime and acted as he should? R. B. Dear R. B: Not if it is against your mother's wish, but if he is a nice boy and you are far enough advanced in your studies why I think it would be alright to have him come around once in awhile, but not too often and not to stay late. I am in favor of your asking your mother yourself. I am sure she would rather talk to your about it and hear you express yourself. Tell her all that you know about the young man; how you know him; and what she is doing in school and his ambition and then my dear, be guided by what she says as she is there with you and I am sure she has your interest at heart. There now, I have answered all your questions at once. Naomi. Dear Naomi: I am light brown with black hair, small eyes, heavy eyebrows and lashes, 5 feet tall, weigh 116 pounds. I may be considered nice looking by some. I met a young fellow once during his school holidays and he seemed to like me and I liked him too. He told me of his girl friend, how they had just fallen out. He began to write me quite frequently and I met him several times afterwards. Just before one of his holidays I got a long letter from him telling me that his former sweetheart asked to spend the holidays with him, and he didn't know how to say no, and how sorry he was. He did not see him at this holiday and have not answered his last letter. So many have told me to answer it and so many have told me not to. I shall await your answer in the next issue whether I shall answer it or not. Your constant reader. Buddie. Dear Buddie: Well, dearie, I do not feel that the young man has committed any crime by telling you of his other girl or by telling you she was coming to spend the holidays in his city. I presume that is what he meant and not with him and being young, naturally, he wants to stay on good terms with all of you, which is wise.

Says one post: "Black eyes most dazzle in a hall, blue eyes most please at even-fall; the black a conquest soonest gain, the blue a conquest most retain,—then let each reign without control, the black all mind, the blue all soul!" Many eyes supposed to be black or brown, are in reality a deep orange or yellow-brown when viewed in the sun-light; they are so luminous when compared with the whiteness of the eye that it frequently seems black by comparison. Blue eyes having less strength of expression, are supposed to denote a gentler, more ludigent and philosophical nature, although the steel blue eye can of a certainty be the eye of the coquettish, and often times coldly practical; science gives to the blue eyes the milder traits, and to the brown the more powerful. Eyes combining the flecks of blue and brown, are supposed to blend the sympathy of woman with the forcefulness of man, these eyes are usually described as hazel. The gray eye is the students eye, the judge's eye, these eyes are frequently found in the judges, unbiased, analytical, and of lofty sincerity; it is shrewd and acquisitive. The transparent eye reveals health and mental strength; the deepen one's eye lustre, the greater one's spiritual gifts. The lusterless eye has but little lustre, in expression and denotes selfishness, and when the rims show a little red, they are people of temper with little control. Eyes placed too close together are declared to be of a nature so conservative and conventional; to be called narrow, while eyes too far apart, prominent, with eyes arching away to a somewhat lifted brow, reveal a clinging vine nature, uncertain, credulous, dependant upon affection and sympathy. The eye of genius and creative power has a well defined upper lid, though slightly narrow, with the vim forming a decidedly straight line across the eye almost covering the pupil. The twinkling eyes, that seem to be merrily dancing, are proof of a witty, as well as an eloquent nature. HOME & KITCHEN SUGGESTIONS Edited by MARIAN JANE PARKER, Home Economics Dept., Calumet Baking Powder Co. How to Clean The porch furniture sometimes acquires a coating of dust which detracts seriously from its cool and inviting appearance after a period of hot dusty weather. Any amount of washing with cold water will fail to dislodge these layers of fire dust which seem ground into the surface, but they will respond very quickly to an application of soap flake suds which quickly removes the stubborn dirt without damaging the surface finish of the furniture. To prepare the suds quickly, dissolve the soap flakes in hot water. Add cold water until just comfortable for the hands and whip up to a thick suds. Squeeze a soft cloth out of the suds and rub quickly but vigorously over the surface. Rirse immediately with a cloth squeezed out of clear water. Dry thoroughly. Wicker furniture may be cleaned with the same suds, applying it with a soft brush instead of with a cloth. Canning Strawberries Of all fruits, the strawberry is one of the most difficult to can in order to preserve its color and flavor. It requires a large amount of sugar to preserve its color, but this in turn destroys the flavor. There is no more attractive food to look at than a dish of Sunshine Strawberry Preserves where an equal amount of sugar and berries is used, but many people prefer the plain canned product where less sugar is used. The following method has proved very successful if directions are followed closely: First, hull and thoroughly wash the berries. In order to preserve the color as much as possible can the berries in their own juice; it is accomplished by allowing the berries and sugar to stand for a short time, forming enough juice to start the canning.

Thus Chattanooga, although it made a persistent demand for the convention was forced to yield to Des Moines, Iowa, Has Negro Delegates This National Conference of Social Work, one of the most democratic organizations, has always accorded Negro delegates just and fair consideration. Once the Executive Committee threatened to call off the conference when they faced New Orleans' attempt to bar Negroes from the meetings less than two weeks before the delegates were to arrive. Eugene Kincle Jones, Executive Secretary of the National Urban League, is a member of its Executive Committee and others including Jesse O. Thomas, Forester B. Washington, George E. Haynes, and Charles S. Johnson are members of division committees. Colored speakers appear on the program each year. The Cleveland Conference heard Charles S. Johnson, Editor of "Opportunity," who delivered one of the most exhaustive panes of the whole conference on the subject, "Substitution of Negro Labor for European Immigrant Labor"; Lawrence A. Oxley, Director of Colored Welfare Work; Forrester B. Washington, T. Arnold Hill, and E. Franklin Frazier. Seventy-five delegates attended. "The reactions of employers of Negro labor," said Mr. Johnson "while still contradictory has a secure balance in favor of their use. One closely scientific comparison of their skill in the iron and steel industry which might be cited reveals, accordingly to earnings new hour on piece of work by the white workers excel Negroes, 12 processes in which Negroes excel white workers, and 18 processes in which their abilities are the same. They are becoming adjusted to city life and have even lengthened their span by 5 years since moving north." fourth as much sugar by measure as fruit. Mix carefully and after standing for a while, let boil for three minutes. In order that the berries may have a plum appearance, cover and let stand for several hours or over night; then drain off the juice and pour the berries into hot sterilized jars. Heat the syrup to the boiling point and pour over the berries. Seek loosely and at once place jars in a pan of hot water in a slow oven and cook for one hour. Do move from oven and immediately that the jars do not touch during the oven cooking. Many times during the cold pack process of canning berries or even the open kettle process the berries rise to the top of the jar leaving perhaps a half jar of syrup, but fruit canned in the oven, when done you have a jar of fruit and not syrup. NEW IDEAS FOR When making fruit salad try putting the sliced bananas in hot water for a few moments. This will keep them from turning black, and the salad can be kept for 12 hours or longer. To Clean White Woodwork—Add a little turpentine to the water and it will be much easier cleaned. A New Chocolate Icing—Use the following proportions and you will have a delicious and different cake icing: To one cup of confectioner's sugar add six tablespoons of cocoa, one-fourth teaspoon Calcium Baking Powder and one-half teaspoon of vanilla. Add a thick, smooth tape to make a thick smooth paste and spread on cake. To Drain Spinach—In removing spinach from the kettle in which it has been cooked, use a skimmer instead of pouring off the water. In this way the sand that has not been removed, will drop to the bottom of the kettle. How To Porch Eggs—When poaching eggs put a teaspoonful of vinegar in the water and cover the pan. The vinegar keeps the white of the egg from spreading, and the covered pan makes the white cook over the yolk. To Make Graham Flour—When graham flour is not available, graham crackers make an excellent substitute. Put the crackers thru the food chopper, using the finest knife, and use the resulting powder in cookies, cakes or q u i e k breads. Windows Washed in Sun, Dry Streakd—Never attempt to wash your windows when the bright sunlight Is on them. Under the conditions they will look streaked when you get through, no matter how much elbow grease you apply. Colored America Weighs National Administration In Scales And Balances And Finds It Wanting Washington, D. C., June 9—(Staff Correspondence for The Associated Negro Press). Has Negro America made net gains in the more than five years of Republican national rule? Not nationally; some locally. Nationally, two Republican Presidents and both houses of Congress have kept disappointment to the political hopes and dreams of Negro America. Will Negro America ever get a national political foothold again? Not until there is a revolution in political thought, and from somewhere in America, Negroes are entitled to Congress again! Until that day, Negroes of America will be nothing less than political footballs, to be kicked about at will, and used, occasionally, to "make the goal." Hark back to 1918, when the Armistice was signed, and when Negro America had 500,000 of their kind in khaki, with nearly as many in France as make up a good size modern city. It was declared that, "The time has come when we will go justice." There has been little done, and little was expected under the Wilson administration, Democratic. Then, with the war, "politics adjourned,"—some. Eyes were turned to 1920, when there would be a national election, and "We are certain the next president will be a republican, and whoever he is, he will give us justice." That was thought, it was believed in, and prayed for, even at the very doorsteps of Warren G. Harding, in Mason, Ohio, after he had been named in a hotel at 1:40 a. m., in Chicago. Harding Promised But Slipped Harding, with the solemnity of a judge and the eloquence of a Daniel Webster, raised his hand to high heaven, in the presence of Negroes from every important state, and promised he would "not only give the Negro what he had had under former Republican administrative powers." But he did not. Life took on another hue from the Whites House in Washington, than it did from his house, at Marion. Then he went to Birmingham, and told the world about Stoddard's "Rising Tide of Color." He threw fear into white America, and disgust into Negro America, and so did those about him, and so did Congress. The Negro became bitter and bolted the party in local election. This alarmed the Republicans, and they made peace and more promises, for 1924, after President Harding had gone to his reward, and President Coolidge was before the nation. The Negroes believed President Coolidge, New England, and National Chairman Butler, ditto, would certainly "turn the trick." And so, once more, except in Indiana, and a few scattered locations, Negro America marched under the banner of the Grand Old Party to victory, and promises. "They're all alike when they get in," said a quiet citizen in a busy little city, and he seems to have sensed the opinion of the big majority. President Coolidge has eloquently preached the gospel of good-will and toleration, but he has eminently failed to back it up by determined action. He believes all things righteous—on all righteous things—but he does not turn his beliefs into political action. "President Coolidge has failed Negro America, and so has the third Republican Congress and Senate." This is the unqualified opinion of the national thinking Negroes in every state. Needed; Self-Assertiveness, / Unselfish Leadership The President is cordial; he agrees with all committees and leaders who call to lay complaint, that "something should be done," but nothing is done. He cautions "patience." Have ever people been more patient and trustful than Negro America? There is Congress, both the House and the Senate. Their concern in Negro citizenship is The reason is that the sun dries the cleaning mixture so quickly that it dries uncleanly. The quick drying process also causes the cleanser to become more or less fixed before you can remove it. Household Hints To brighten the rugs for summer if you are not taking them up, why wipe them off with a nail of water using a handful of salt in the water. Wheen cooking certain vegetables with a disagreeable smell, just a pinch of sugar on the stove will kill the scent. A pinch of salt in the water in the vase for cut-flowers will make them last longer. You should open canned fruit an hour or two before it is needed for use. It is richer when the oxygen is thus restored to it. shown in the voting down of the report on the Anti-Lynching Bill, cold turkey. There were four for it in the committee, three Republicans, and a Democrat, two of the Republicans are candidates for reelection in states where Negro votes count. But Congress, and the Republican Administration at large, have their fingers crossed on Negro America. They are not going out of their way to exercise any lofty statesmanship regarding Human Rights and Citizenship — Negro America has neither the organization or means to force the issue. Take the case of James A. Cobb for District Judge. A Republican Senate has permitted a Democratic Senator from Mississippi, elected because of votes of disfranchised Negroes, to hold back the final confirmation for months. And Cobb's appointment is not a net gain but a mere retention of place. There is significance, therefore, in the declarations of Homer Phillips, of St. Louis, who comes out for Congress, in the district of present Congressman L. C. Dyer; and of "Nick" Chiles, of Topeka, who comes out as a candidate for United States Senator, for the place now occupied by Sena a Curtis. This police colleague now could well file for office in every state in America where there are numbers. The time to sit idly by is passed. If they fail of nomination or election they will at least have the lacking of a principle. Unselfish Leadership Needed "There is need of unselfish leadership. It is the most distressing situation with which I have to deal," declared one of the outstanding men of the Negro race to the Associated Negro Press. Continuing, he said: "There is much to be done, and no few of us can do it all. But practically everyone who comes to the front in a cause, or is urged to lead wishes to know. What am I going to get out of it." Democrat, Republican or Independent is not the question foremost in consideration at this time; the big thing is Political Assertiveness. Negro America must be effective and audible politically in a national way, regardless of affiliation, according to the belief of leading thinkers everywhere. Out of the Negro masses there must come men and women who will throw aside the cloak of political oppression and take their positions on the mountain tops of justice, and cry aloud, and declare "I will be heard." That the tendency is in the direction of a new day, a new deal, and a new voice, is obviously indicated of a new day, is obviously indicated by newspapers from every section, by the assertions of all those who speak, and by the general trend of the times. Negro America in a national political way is in a sorry mess and knows it. In the fact of knowledge, lays the hope. "I OWE "I OWE IT ALL TO HI-JA" How wonderful it is to be beautiful.

ATLANTA, GEORGIA ighs National Scales And Is It Wanting SLAYER OF HIS COMMON-LAW WIFE CONVICTED Petronius Don Henderson, of Washington, Found Gulity Of Stabbing Young Woman He Claims He Was to Marry Washington, D. C., June 9—A jury in criminal court No. 2, J. Wendell Wendell P. Stafford presiding, last Thursday found Petronius Don Henderson guilty of second degree murder for the killing of his common law wife, Matilda Beatrice Jackson, on March 25, last. The verdict carries with it punishment by imprisonment for life or not less than 20 years. Stabbed With Pocket Knife Henderson stabbed the Jackson girl in front of 929 French street, Northwest, where they were living as man and wife, with a pocket knife, the wound penetrating the heart. She had gone to a party against his wishes and failed to return by 10 o'clock, as she had told him. She left him lying in bed. He got up, dressed, and went into the streets and returned three times. As he started out the fourth time, he met her at the door. The stabbing followed. Henderson carried the fatally wounded girl up the stairs to their room where he ripped open her clothes from the neck down. He bathed the wound, and then went for Dr. Charles B. Fisher. When Dr. Fisher reached the scene, the girl had been removed to Freedman's Hospital where she was pronounced dead upon arrival by Dr. Howard Jackson. Henderson took the witness stand at the trial and denied that he intended to kill the girl. He testified that he intended to marry her on April 1, 1926, and was anxious about her welfare but not angry with her at the time of the tragedy. He claimed that he prilled her to him and she accidentally fell against a finger nail file which he was holding in his hand at the time. Deputy Coroner H. E. Martyn, however, testified that his autopsy showed two deep wounds, which were made by a sharp instrument, and the police officers, who investigated the killing, declared that there was no blood on the finger nail file but that the knife which they found at the scene was bloody to the hilt.

TREASURY TO DROP SIXTEEN COLORED WOMEN Order Of Suspension To Become Effective June 30; Causes Discrimination Charges To Be Revived. Washington, D. C., June 9—Harry V. Speelman, Register of the Treasury of the United States is again charged with discrimination against colored employees of his office. This charge is based upon notice to sixteen of them that their services would no longer be needed after June 30. All of these employees are women. 20 Per Cent Reduction The report is that orders from the Treasury Department called for a 20 Per Cent reduction of the force of the office of the Register of the Treasury. There are but 37 colored employees in this office. Sixteen of them were notified of their probable dismissal. Among those listed for dismissal is Miss Georgia Jones, who was given a probationary appointment in the office of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue under the civil services rules. Miss Jones is very fair and at the time of her appointment Government officials did not know whether she was white or colored. While she was serving her probationary period, it was discovered that she was colored. She was immediately notified that the work which she had been selected to do was completed and her services would no longer be needed. Political influence was brought to bear, however, and she was transferred to the segregated section. Four of the employees who were notified of their dismissal will be transferred to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing on per diem work. They are Miss Elizabeth Burfield, Mrs. Josephine Gregg, Mrs. Carrie Leech and Mrs. Charlotte Hall. The employees, who will be dismissed outright, are Mrs. Francis Davis, Mrs. Lou Ethel D.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING FOR YOUR PUNY CHILD One Hoy Gained 11 Pounds in 7 Weeks and is Now Strong and Healthy For weak, frail, under-developed children—and especially those that have rickets, and need a sure builder that promotes the growth of teeth and bones, cod liver oil is the one medicine supreme—nothing helps like it. But it is mastic and repulsive and evil smelling and nearly always upsets children's stomachs—so now us-to-date chemists advise McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Compound Tablets. Children love them as they do candy, because they are sugar coated and easy to take. One boy wears them for weeks, and is now healthy and happy—thousands of other children, have grown strong and robust. Sixty tablets for 60 coffits at all drugstores—but be sure and ask for McCoy's—the original and genius.

"You will grow to your best, and you will guide your world truly, only as you follow the teachings and reproduce the character of the Master teacher. Your successes will be finally measured by what you have done by whom you have striven to do. The intention of your souls will be marked infinitely higher than the accomplishments of your hands. 'All the world's coarse thumb Thoughts hardly to be packed And finger failed to plumb Into a narrow act. Fancies that broke through language and escaped. "All you could be, all men immore in you, that will you be worth to God, and that will you be worth to your world; so rot is only the dreamer in righteousness who can pilot the people to pence.

Mr. Frank Shutterbrand, of the origin islands, rendered a clarinet to "Brecuse," from Jocelyn, to delight of all. M. 7:30 p. m., an eager, crowd trained to hear Dr. Walker on the Eagle Stirring Her Nest," Deut. 32:11. This was a very interesting message. Mr. Shutterbrandt favored again with telephone solo, "The Rosary," which was well rendered. in the Sunday school was at its bed in both attendance and lesson assessment. The musical numbers the B. Y.

MARK'S COMMUNITY CHURCH Julian and Courtney Avvs.) Following an interesting and upward Sunday school lesson, which are effectively reviewed by the Mr. Gaston, of Mt. Olive church, a stirring and touching lesson was preached by the Rev. Budd, on "Making Friends the Enemy." This church has been without a pastor thirty days has unanimously held the Rev. L. T. Watson, D. D. its pastor, who will assume a charge on June 20. JAMES F. COLLINS, SUNIT. LIEUT. J. M. COLLINS, who was recently elected superintendent of St. John's A. M. E. Sunday school for the 34th consecutive year. It is not the length of service alone, however, that marks Superintendent Collins as a remarkable leader in Sunday school work, but it is his capacity to keep abaest of all that is modern in methods and to adopt these methods quickly. It is said that it is this particular trait in Lieut. Collins that makes his leadership alert today as it was the first day of his superintendency. St. John's Sunday school is the largest in the Virginia Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Church and one of the most progressive. On each Sunday morning when its various departments are functioning it presents a veritable beehive of activity. CONVERTED GAMBLER TO CONDUCT REVIVAL AT MT OLIVE, CHURCH CONVERTED GAMBLER TO CONDUCT REVIVAL AT MT OLIVE, CHURCH On next Sunday night, Rev. Dr. R. H. Walker, the converted gambler of New York City, will begin a great spiritual campaign in Lindenwood at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, of which Rev. Harvey X. Johnson is pastor. Dr. Walker is an evangelist of rational reputation and recently closed a long series of meetings in Richmond, where hundreds were converted and great crowds greeted him on every occasion. The meetings will continue for one week and every person of Lindenwood, Washington Heights, Hunterville and the adjacent territory is cordially invited to avail themselves of the opportunity to hear this powerful preacher, the exterior meeting of church building is about completed and all are highly pleased with the same. All departments of the church are moving along in peace and harmony, every on is being busily engaged in efforts that will mean much for the kingdom. Our pastor, Rev. Johnson, delivered an electrifying sermon on last Sunday and a tide of spiritual enthusiasm swept the entire audience as he forcibly delivered a message from Dan, 12:16. The pastor also preached an instructive sermon at night. On Monday night, "The Road to Heaven" was presented to an appreciative audience. This church is growing by leaps and bounds and a splendid spirit of co-operation prevails. MARKED INCREASE IN Y.M.C.A.'S Four Campaigns Recently Instituted Net More Than $600,000 For Buildings. New York—The addition of more than a half million dollars of property values to the colored Young Men's Christian Association of the country in the past six months is a record breaker among Negro organizations according to a statement just issued by Channing H. Tobias, Senior Secretary of the National Y. M. C. A. work for colored men and boys aggregating a total valuation of nearly $600,000 to which colored people themselves subscribed $81,000,000 and Julius Rosenwald of Chicago gave $50,000. The cities to benefit by buildings are Little Rock Ark., Buffalo, N. Y., Ohio, and Germantown, Pa. Several cities that have buildings are planning annexes to branches. Kansas City, Mo., will erect a $100,000 annex and St. Louis a boy's work building. Philadelphia has organized branches in the north and west sides of the city in addition to the splendid Christian Street Branch. Robert B. DeFranz of the National Council is the building campaign director of the Colored Men's Department. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH (Rolling Brook) Services were well attended at this church on last Sunday. The pastor, Rev. E. T. Kee, has returned from North Carolina and occupied his pulpit at each service. At 3 o'clock the Grand Lodge No. 36, Knights of St. Mark, assembled at the First Baptist Church in its 18th annual session and listened to a stirring sermon preached by the pastor. At 8 p.m., the pastor preached from the subject, "Christian Watchfulness." A senate judiciary subcommittee decided Coolidge order federalizing state officers as dry agents was legal. MADISON WIDENS ATTACK ON "SIN IN HIGH PLACES" Includes Doctors, Lawyers, and Business Men In Charges Similar To Those Brought Against Teachers. Sensitive to the preponderance of criticism, compared to the support accorded his attitude in preaching exorcizing sermons on alleged unbecoming conduct of some of the local school teachers by those who have commented on it in the public press, but none the less in a fighting mood, Rev. C. P. Madison continued the fire last Sunday in a third sermon in which he declared there would no let up in his cruse until something definite comes out of it. Crowd Smaller The crowds which have filled Second Calvary, main floor and galleries, to hear his previous teacher sermons, dwindled to the point where the main floor and a few seats in the galleries were filled Sunday. It was impossible to det rime whether the somewhat smaller crowd was due to waring interest in the pastor's crusade or to the threatening weather that prevailed at just about church-going hour. According to the amens he got, however, it was evident that he is still holding a good following. In this third sermon, Dr. Madison widened his range of attack on "sin in high places," as he termed it, to include lawyers, doctors, business and professional people and local "high society." He charged that some of the supposed best young men of the city, lawyers and doctors, he emphasized, are purposefully contributing to the moral ruin of unsuspecting young girls. Dr. Madison's sermon subject was "What to Expect and What Not to Expect in my Crusade for Morally Good Teachers in Norfolk." In this connection, referring to the seemingly growing criticism of his manner in making general charges which he has so far failed to lay against any individual teacher to be proved or not, he says, "I'll prove the uniformity of some of the school teachers of Norfolk, but I see now that I'll have to do it alone. The public may expect the facts specified and proved, but not in a moment. They will get them, however, if it takes twelve months to furnish the proof." Public Evasive He stated that the public knows as much or more about the conditions he arrains as he does, but has shown no signs that it is willing to support his stand. Not even one of the best school teachers has accorded him encouragement in his fight to lift the stigma from their profession in this city, he said. Showing no signs of being taken back, however, Dr. Madison vigorously asserted that he did not begin his fight upon the advice of any man, nor would the advice of any man deter him in carrying it on, "but," said he, "if you who know the truth would be brave enough to come out and tell it, this fight would be quickly concluded." The Rev. Mr. Madison stated that he has received a number of letters from out-of-town writers supporting his stand and declaring him to be right, but asking at the same time, "why is Norfolk so silent on the matter?" He also stated that numerous local people have visited and furnished him with some of the most startling and revolting information, or alleged information concerning some teachers whose names have been mentioned, but his informants insist that their names be not used in connection with the alleged information, thus tying his hands, he said. One of the most serious allegations yet brought against Norfolk school teachers by Rev. Mr. Madison was made when he asserted that he had positive information that in some out-of-town districts that school teachers from this city are positively unwanted, on account of what local patrons charge as their unwholesome influence. Added to all the other general charges and insinuations he has brought against some of the local teachers, without naming them. Rev. Madison on last Sunday charged moral persecution, asserting that some of the women are guilty of unspeakable conduct with other women. This loathsome practice he declared, is not confined to certain school teachers, but is invading the homes of the people the church and extending all over the city. It is most reproducible, he shouted and harkens back to the days of Sodom. Widens Attack Widening his assault to include local "high society" as he called it. Dr. Madison declared that some of the doctors and lawyers of this area are out to make harmless of any young woman, regardless of her standing in the community, "Mothers and fathers," he continued, "you must get on the job if you are to save your daughters from ruin. I am not afraid of the protistate or degenerate who ostracizes NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE S SEEK TO ARE THE CHARGES TRUE OR FALSE? Editor Journal and Guide: Edfor Journal and Guide: We have read the criticism against Rev. Madison's sermon on "Unfit Teachers," and preferred to regain silent regarding them. But when those who are commonly termed "foulish high school freshmen (Do we have freshmen in high school)? take open issue with Dr. Madison and other eminent divides; when the intelligentsia teachers, etc., try to give an account of their stewardship by representing such illegal, erroneous and extraneous arguments as were published in the Guide during the last fortnight, we can restrain ourselves to longer. We feel that we must say something, if only to ask both sides concerned in this controversy to refer to that point, from which we started; namely Dr. Madison's necessations, and assertain that whether these charges are true or false. Furthermore the teachers and those sponsoring the cause of the teachers should decide once and for all what must be done if it is proven that these charges are false. On the other hand, Dr. Madison and his networkers, as well as all citizens and folks should determine the next step to be taken to the event these charges are proven to be more than more groundless We personally, take issue neither pro nor con in the 1972-a-date, but we would like to get at the cool of the situation, and readily admit that there are unclean preachers, unclean lawyers and doctors in the professions and unclean employers and workers, who will agree that all will agree with us when we say that poverty and vice abound to a great extent in the slums and in the semi-urban areas, and that there is a fertile field where "Moral Uplift men" might reap a beautiful harvest. Moreover we, the understudied, believe that the moralists, the folk, who heartily cancer with us when we voice the sentiment; teachers should be given liberty and not license; already many of us have been on the verge of a charity being on going in Norfolk; and teachers, probably more so than any other class of public servants, cannot afford to be moralists; morals should they rebel against public opinion, surely they cannot hope to escape the result of their actions, whether the public indulge in implication or whether it be protection. According to the general, local, current System are openly defying public opinions as we infer from Dr. Madison's sermon. System are openly defying public opinions as we infer from Dr. Madison's sermon. Teachers should be cut off from all pleasures of life; or whether, they, if important, should be allowed to choose whether or not whether Dr. Madison or any one else had a right to publicity domesticate an individual. These assuctions are questions which we should not quibble, the real question to our minds being this: Can these assuptions be questioned? I require we as citizens have a right to inquire into the morals of our teachers so bring us their morals affair or have a tendency to ask about them. Sincerely yours, C. Augustus Austin and James R. Corriveau 117 Martin Street, Austin, TX 78701 Please allow our space in your valuable paper to say a few words on the Madison "Build Teacher" article in your issue of *The Madison* with the exception of the letter, "What Are the Facts?" by Pro Bom Publication. Repositions to facts, no true Christian teaching, there is a way to meet the matter without matter. There is a way to meet the matter without matter. Mr. Madison has leisure. There are many ways to a leader he can be of help to our students. There are several thousand taxpayers, but much less that number among our race that are qualified tutors. That we want good and efficient teachers, but what steps are you preschoolers taking to place our boys and girls when they come out of school? We have a teacher in our area who takes several thousand others as peers. It is not themselves as others needs. It is not noise when in action. The day is far smell and gone when our students are pointing to us as they want our leaders to lead and do so as they want age they are. This is a showdown at age they are. I do not know whether amazement, judgment or sorrow are uppermost in my mind, as I read the tempest in a teapot stirred up by the feathers and faithful prowling of Rev. Dr. G. P.

A GROWING CHURCH IN Mount Olive Baptist Church (LINDENWOOD) HONG KONG MEMBERS SEEK TO RETAIN SERVICES OF THE REV. DR. A. HOBBS The members of Jerusalem Baptist Church, whose pastor, Rev. A. Hobbs, was recently unanimously elected pastor of Union Baptist Temple, Atlantic City, N.J., are putting forth their best efforts to retain the services of Dr. Hobbs. JOHN H. BROWN On last Sunday before the entire membership the following statement from the Deacon Board expressing the sentiments of the members was read: "In view of the feet that Dr. A. Hobbs present mentor of the Jerusalem Baptist Church has been recently elected to the pastorate of the Union Baptist Temple, of Atlantic City, N. J., the deacon board with the entire official staff and the church as well take this method of publicly expressing our sentiment relative to the moritorious work done by him. When Dr. Hobbs came to us a little more than eleven years ago the financial status of the church was direful. Our spirits had dropped, our faith was at ceb because all seemed darkness and despair. But in the midst of our broodings he brought hope and cheer, feeling that nothing is impossible with God as leader. He has fought this financial struggle to a new finish. His value as a preacher has been manifested at every stage in the progress of the church and in recognition of his value a friendship has been cemented that has endured him to us. "He has so organized the church is to put it on a firm working basis, all auxiliaries working harmoniously together like a unique piece of machinery. He has done much for social and moral uplift. He has increased largely the church membership by baptism and otherwise. As a result we are moving on in a prosperous way with a booster future before us. Therefore we are extremely desirous of having him remain with us. Done by order of the Deacon Board. W. F. Patterson, chairman. Stacey Roberts, Clerk. A UNIQUE AFFAIR Each Tuesday evening at 7:30 clock from September to June each teacher, in the Sunday school of the Jerusalem Baptist Church, has welcomed the hour to sit in a semi-circle and hear the coming Sunday's lesson discussed by the able instructor, Rev. A. Hobbs. They not only received a message to take their classes, but gained personal help that enabled them to meet courageously the problems of life. We close during the summer months, thus we will miss the happy gatherings On June 1st, our instructor invited us to his spacious home in Boul. ward Terrace to spend a social evening. Being a man with a vision he has inspired us to do greater work. Plans and methods for broadening our Sunday school work were discussed at length. We then changed our program to a less serious one and enjoyed the remainder of the evening socially. A delicious repas was served. The Sunday school teachers of the Jerusalem Baptist Church unanimously acclaim their instructor as the best in the coun-. At a late hour we left, still cherishing the memory of the pleasant evenings spent together, and looking forward to the first of September when we shall re-semble. himself from good people and advertises his status, but it is the society lizard, the society drunkard, the society moral rascal who has access to the best homes who is the most dangerous secondhand to the community. "Education does not make people morally better. If one has the devil in him in high school, he comes out of college or the professional school with a wiser and bigger devil in him," the pastor declared. "Practically every social function given now-a-days," he went on, "is a drinking party." READERS COMMENT ON REV. MADISON'S TEACHER CHARGES "A CHALLENGE TO CHRISTIANITY" *Journal, and Guide* Now that the tempest now rew, Madison's charges on some NORFOLL public teachers is partly silent, I am forced to draw from observation. I must command Dr. Madison for the holdiness of attack on sit in high places; however it would get best results if the minister would prefer a large group some teacher or member of the public support to help the good minister to clean house and do it quietly. No man is preferred and a conviction registered. Now, to the Baptist Union of Tidewater: Is your city the public institution of the Baptist Ministers did not start the ministers' publishes from defenders of the teachers constitute a challenge to the Baptist ministry of Tidewater, and certainly let the ministers as a Union or individually come out in defences of a "brother" who draws on own conclusions. An unfit public school teacher is a public liability and menace; also a minister who is afraid of the minister's critics and a sad disappointment to lead. Will the challenge go unchallenged? G. J.

Great National Baptist Sunday School Congress Holding ForthIn Columbia Five Days Will Be Spent In A "Summer Sunday School of Methods," With 30 States Represented. Columbia, S. C., June 9th—(Congress Headquarters—Benedict College and Allen University Campus)—"More and Better Sunday Schools" was the theme in the opening session of the Sunday School Congress which convened in this city at high noon today. Columbia, the state's capital, South Carolina, the Palmetto State, are giving welcome that would challenge the admiration of the heralds of victory and the representatives of a righteous cause that represented South Carolina in the stormy days preceding and after reconstruction. This city, one of the playgrounds of the late Woodrow Wilson, this city, that has witnessed excitement as well as pomp and ceremony during the days of Robert H. Small, Robert Brown Elliott, Benjamin Pitchford Tillman and others, has seen a new day in construction as program building in this present school known as the Sunday School Congress. Vanguard Arrives Tuesday Messengers began to arrive here Tuesday evening when the north, the Middle West and the far East emptied their cargo here, and from that time on until the official Sunday School Congress train arrived this morning there was a constant stream of inflow of workers. Thirty states were represented when the official announcement was made that the closing hours will be spent in what they term here as a "Summer Sunday School of Methods." Welcome were given by His Excellency, the Governor, His Honor, the Mayor, the Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, the Board of Trade and leaders in several denominations. Dr. J. C. White, the pastor of the largest congregation in Columbia, is the general chairman who is responsible for bringing the first rational meeting among the colored people in the history of the city. Presiding Rev. J. P. Robinson Presiding The Congress is presided over by as a wachman on the wall. "If he sees the sword come and blows out the trumpet, the people will be afraid to require at the wachman's hands." Again, God commands the preacher to cry about and sparre the people of the land, and to trample the transgressions. And those who through prudence maintain a guilty silence God calls "Dumb but good" can crumble and the wrong championed and will not come on God's side. God says to the help of the Lord God against the minority. The minister of the people knows that the moral situation is the basis of moralugence. From time immemorial when moral situations imperilled the life of a people God always summons out at what ever risk. It was so when Moses, the commandments, mook to the warrior in the ground of the golden calf. It was so when Nathan confronted the guilty David who had taken a colored man's wife and pardoned It was so when Elijah met a kindless nation on Mr. Carmel who had given themselves over to怠懒势的 Angels of the earth, but his wife thundered in the car of her quilty king fireed before all his appalled pupils to teach them, awards and it ought to be so in Norfolk when teachers who are first of all to be examples then teachers,介导的, to be examples of Virtue so far for forget those lives so to privately or publicly engage in conduct becoming good taste and good conduct, a peculiar and peculiar influence with the poorest a perchant than even the minister. When they set up examples they were more than any other person has power to do and if they are publicly warned by a faithful teacher, it is not for reformation but to drumm over the phone and attempt to diagnose him through the stupid and silly letters of the whereabouts and representatives they are ought to notify them that they can drink, smoke, dance and discuss, but they must disconnect themselves with the pay, and the state's teaching force, and individuals and not as part of the great mob, all influential body of public school teachers, the great majority of women are to quit, and not degrade their pupils.

Dr. Wallace Buttrick It is not good to allow a man of the character and service of Dr. Wallace Buttrick to pass on and out without paying a tribute to him. He died in Baltimore, May 27. He was seventy-two years old. He was a successful Baptist preacher when he was called to be secretary to the General Education Board in 1902. He became president of the Board and a member of the Rockefeller Foundation, in 1917. He was intensely interested and sympathetic towards Afro-American education and was in a position to be of the greatest service. He was one of the best and most helpful friends Dr. Washington had, and he relied much upon Dr. Washington for advice in distributing the large benefits at his command for Southern education. Dr. Buttrick was a great big Christian and he did a great big work for Christian uplift and betterment. The Grand Army Veterans Thinning A very noticeable feature of the memorial services in all parts of the country was the very few members of the Grand Army of the Republic who were able to take part in the celebration. And all of them were old men. It was sixty-five years ago that they turned their faces towards the South to help save the Union of the States answering the call of Abraham Lincoln, President and Commander of the Army and Navy of the United States. The few survivors of the grandest army which ever fought the battles of the Republic, second only to the veterans General Washington led in the great revolution that freed the colonies and made the United States possible, commanded everywhere the respectful reverence of those who watched the line of march of the veterans of all our wars, because of their fewness and feebleness and above all because of the imperishable, the heroic service they rendered in saving the Union and freeing the slave. Soon the last member of the Grand Army of the Republic will answer the final call, but they will always hold the supreme place in the affections of the American people. Why? Because they rendered a service which no other army of the Republic can be called upon to render. They saved the Union and they destroyed the slave system. The Union may again be threatened in its life, but slavery is dead and there will be no resurrection of it in our system of government. Another Opportunity Lost Negroes lost another opportunity Tuesday to make an impressive showing in an election which vitally concerned their welfare. Last year when the referendum election on the transportation ordinance took place the race had a financial interest in a transportation system at stake, and failed to back up their money with their votes. Tuesday they had an opportunity to register a dignified and righteous protest against mobocracy and economic repression, and they failed utterly. There are over 525 qualified colored voters on the books. In the twenty-first precinct, where the great majority of them vote, there were only 74 ballots cast. Some of these were white. The colored votes, probably fifty in all, were divided between the tickets. In the one or two other precincts where there are some colored votes, less than fifteen were cast, according to observers. There are numerous reasons for this lethargy of the colored vote, and the most important one of them is the sycophantic attitude of persons who are unfortunately in a position to exert some leadership. There are business men, lawyers, physicians, preachers and teachers, who pretend to the masses of their people that they want an honest, equal chance for them in the race of life; that they want protection against mob violence and security in their property rights, but when the time to vote comes around they betray and sell out the masses by working and voting for men who do mob violence, who stand for mob violence and who practice every possible form of proscription and discrimination against the race. These men do not deceive the masses, they deceive themselves. The masses stand off and look at them in their stupid deception, and are confused. They do not know whether to vote or not to vote, when their preachers, their bankers, their lawyers and their doctors tell them to vote for people who have excused them over and over again. The higher-ups are immune from many of the disadvantages, economic and civil, from which the masses suffer. And the subtle flattery of the politicians often showered upon them in the eleventh hour of a campaign, never fails to seduce them into betraying their people. Some day the masses are going to wake up and repudiate these sycophants who betray them. The wonder is that they have not already done so. Editorial Page of Great Progress in Haiti Is Claimed The American Occupation of Haiti is resented by a group of intelligent Haitians, many of them journalists, who protest against the American usurpation and dictation in the affairs of the country, the President of the Republic, it is claimed, being a creature imposed upon the country by the American Commission, at the head of which is General John H. Russell. The intelligent Haitians claim that the Americans have been guilty of many crimes against citizens of Haiti, and they are loud in protest; but what do the mass of people think who have been benefited by the law and order which the Americans have introduced with the building of a thousand miles of paved roads? A booklet in French has been issued and is being distributed in which it is claimed that, "this progress has been particularly noticeable during the administration of the present chief executive, President Borno, a report in the booklet made by the Haitian minister of public works. His administration also has seen the construction of fourteen schools, thirteen hospitals and eleven lighthouses; installation of an automatic telephone system, and material progress in irrigation and canals. Since 1921, there has been an increase of 350 per cent in the number of telephones in use, and the telegraph system has been augmented and improved." Of course, we think that Haiti ought to be free, as it was for a long period of years, and we think that it would now be free if it had made the most and not the least of its incomparable advantages and opportunities, giving no foreign power excuse for depriving it of its freedom. But the United States has need of Haiti to safeguard its interests in the Panama Canal and we do not think that it has any disposition to return to the Haitian people the independence of which it deprived them in the Administration of President Wilson. It is too bad for the Haitians, but that is the way it looks to us. A Cbinaman Excels at Yale It is of general interest to the readers of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE to learn of any new or unusual thing which affects other race groups than their own but rated as they are by the Christian law and public opinion of which they may be a part, and hampered on account of race or religion or place of nativity. They may all be citizens of the Great Republic, and entitled to share equally in all of its privileges and immunities and yet be separate and apart and compelled in one way and another to fight for everything that is theirs. The Afro-American and the Jew have contributed as much in their way to the upholding of the nation as the New England Puritan and the Southern Cavalier, and they are all of equal standing in the constitution as citizens; but difference is made in the application of the law and the opportunities attaching to citizenship, denial of enjoyment of which makes citizenship a meaningless thing. It is quite remarkable how much success the Jew and the Negro and the foreign born have forced from the reluctant grasp of restraining laws and hostile public opinion. They have had to fight for what they have got and they have to fight to hold on to it, but this very fact of having to fight explains much of their success. And they will keep on fighting until they break down all of the barriers placed in their way. The Chinaman has no place in our citizenship but he manages in a fugitive way, and with his limited numbers, to make both ends meet as satisfactorily as the most favored. So do the Japanese among us, and there are not a few of them. The daily newspapers have made much of the fact that Dana Yung Kwai, a Chinaman, has been chosen class orator for the graduating class of the Sheffield Scientific School, of Yale College. In June last he was voted the most brilliant man, in the senior class by his classmates. His father is secretary of the Chinese legation at Washington. He is undoubtedly a very brilliant man, but that is not anything unusual with Chinese students in American schools in the past. In common labor, in trade, in our schools, the Chinese have shown that they can hold their own with the best of Americans. It is generally claimed that the Chinese are arrested in their mental development; that is, they have gone so far and can hope to go no further. That may be a fiction. There is a movement on foot in China, fathered by a Chinaman educated in America, to modernize the Chinese alphabet and simplify the vocabulary to the ordinary and necessary uses of the people, and the movement is said to be meeting with marvelous success among the common people, who have been shut out from an education by the old alphabet, and like hindrances, with the years it has taken to master what is called Chinese education. With a simpler alphabet and a properly balanced vocabulary there is no reason why the average Chinaman should not have a liberal education and take his place with the progressive races. Yale and Harvard both have many Afro-American graduates, and some of them have done good and brilliant work; and this in the face of the old theory that an Afro-American was incapable of mastering the higher education, a theory which has been blown all to smithereens by the facts in the case. The late Judge Robert H. Terrell of Washington was a Harvard man, and among the outstanding graduates of that school now living, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois has made a very high place as an author and journalist and William H. Lewis of Boston is rated high as a lawyer and orator. "There are no inferior races; there are races with inferior conditions; they may be black or white; they are at times both." Dr. John W. Hamilton declared in his splendid address at the Gammon Theological Seminary's "Congress on Africa," at Atlanta, in 1895. And there is heart of hope in Dr. Hamilton's viewpoint for every race which is now hampered with "inferior conditions." We salute Dana Yung Kwai. May his tribu increase. THE GUIDE POST By RICHARD H. BOWLING THE GUIDE POST By RICHARD H. BOWLING How many children so couple expect to have born reply to this question must of necessity be indefinite. There are so many variant factors to be considered. Not any, may be the correct reply in one case. One, may be the reply in another case. In still another case the proper answer would be, ten. A. B. The saddest case is that of the couple whom all sensible persons would advise to expect no offspring whatever as a result of their over as a result of their marriage. Lawfully married, living together, the call of nature ringing in their ears, but only barrenness facing them for all their lives. No little hands reaching up to them from bassinet or crib, no happy moments of watching the first efforts to walk or listening to the first attempts to talk, no sounds ever of little innocents saying after them: "Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray Thee, Lord, my soul to keep." The prospect of childlessness is indeed a sad one, and yet it is in some cases certainly wise. To be frank, no child should be born of parents either one on both of whom are victims of a communicable and dangerous disease. Venereal troubles, chronic kidney and lung troubles, mental abnormalities and other deep seated ills are danger signs against traveling the road of parenthood. Under the circumstances economic loss, chronic sickness, early death, untold misery are almost certain. There is another case where wisdom dictates one child and only one. This is the case where the first experience of motherhood indicates extreme danger for the mother because of some peculiar physical weakness or some malformation beyond medical or surgical remedy. This applies also in the case where the first experience of motherhood reveals the presence of some dangerous and communicable disease hitherto unsuspected. We come now to consider the couple normally healthy and living under average condition. It is their privilege and duty to expect from four to six children. Why not? If health and comparative economic stability are not to be used thus in the furtherance of the family, the nation and the race, of what real service are they? Are we such paragons of perfection that our line could end in us, there being no higher heights to be reached, no improvements to be made? The birth pangs of countless ages and unnumbered ancestors, just that we might exist and selfishly enjoy? The probabilities of splendid physiques, great characters and world-shaking idealism to be forever unrealized simply that we might escape sacrifices and the duty of providing for them? All things considered, our childless intelligentsia are both shortsighted and rebellious. There is a Divine urge to parenthood in man as in all the rest of God's animate beings. And only a wilful interference can prevent its normal consummation in conception and ultimate birth. There is, finally, the case where the family may well be increased by ten or twelve. This applies to those living in the great open spaces where the cost of living is low, the social demands are not so exacting, the care of children women's chief business. It is here that the need of man power for the conquest of nature and the very preservation of the family makes well nigh obligatory the rearing of large families. Again, imagine birth control as practiced by the intelligentia of our cities duplicated in the open country by the hardy pioneers. The backwoods is lonely enough as it is. Life would be unbearable for scattered groups of not more than three or four in a group. How many children? Consult your physician, your common sense, and your conscience. Spirit of The Press Manliness Under Race Prejudice Rev. A. L. Scott in Southwestern Christian Advocate. The first duty of the genuine man, to my mind, is not to whine, but to ACT. One subtle harm that prejudice may do is to create a chronic sense of wrong which gives rise to an exaggerated, morbid sensitiveness. The victim of prejudice, if he be a weakling, is too apt to ascribe every inconvenience and every failure to that source; to become thin-skinned and defiant; to lose his clear, unbiased judgment; to fall a victim to the mania of persecution. He minimizes the abundant good will that surrounds him on all hands; he becomes a sorrowhead, plagued with suspicious harborings and complaints, whose injured vanity and smarting wounds obstruct his usefulness by crowding out every other consideration. To brood over one's wrongs is to fall into one of the worst mental diseases, a disease which does move than simply put an ashen pall over God's fair sky, but harms us most by making us pity ourselves, and robs us of two of the greatest things in the world, namely, the capacity to love mankird and the joy of service. Let us not permit the consciousness of prejudice to blur our sight and envenom our hearts; let us fight with ourselves to preserve our moral balance, our sense of proportion, our objective, unbiased judgment, our wholesome instincts of fellowship. Do not allow the little cloud, on the sunlit horizon to be magnified by the jaundied eyes of fear and sensitiveness until to the morbid fancy it overcasts the sky, and elipses the sunlight.

Girls of Today In your paper of May 22, there appeared a letter on "The Girls of Today," in which the writer takes us back to times long passed. To take the girl of yesterday and compare her with the girl of today is not fair to either. I would like to know if the girls of today are not what the men want, if not why don't the men leave them alone, and you would see how quick a change would take place. Moreover, can a girl find a clean honest young man any quicker than a man can find a like girl? And the mothers of today. What is wrong with them? God saw to it that they were right yesterday, today and days to come. Men, don't crush these mothers of ours. The writer said that few mothers of today have the time to sit down and instruct their children. He is right, for too often they are out at work trying to keep the home together. We cannot measure morals by one's dress. Didn't women of years ago use tobacco. They did. And if they must use it today, let us take away the cuff and give them the cigarette. The writer stated that there are more girl mothers of today than of yesterday. If so, I would like to know where are the fathers and brothers in this drama. Show a fallen woman who was not aided in her fall by a man and show a miracle. If our girls are not right, whose fault is it? They cannot rise higher morally than our men will allow them to. Let the men set a standard on character and women will measure up to it. Most girls dream of the day when they will be beloved wives and mothers. If one should have the faith that you are her choice and should trust you, don't break her heart and cause her to shed tears of shame. Remember, it is the desire of the feminine heart to please whom she loves. Believe it or not, when you gain her love and confidence, and then betray it, she is a different girl. Give us brave men. Men who will not broadcast to the world that the colored girl is morally wrong. Her fight is hard as it is. Look about you and see what she must fight to preserve her honor. May God grant the day to come when our men will cease to attempt to hide their shortcomings behind our women, but will look the world in the face and let it know that Negro men are going to defend, protect and honor Negro women; men who look the world in the face and say, teach me that sixty-seconds make a minute; one hundred cents make a dollar and sixteen ounces make a pound. Help me to so live that I can lie down at night and sleep, not grant. Grant that I can earn my meal ticket on the level, and in earning it that I may measure my acts by the golden rule. Deafen my ear to the tingle of the dirty dollar and the rustle of unholy petticans. Blind mine eyes to the faults of my fellows, and open mine eyes to my own shortcomings. Guide my footsteps so that each evening at the dinner table, when I look at my wife who has been a blessing to me I shall have nothing to conceal. Keep me young enough to laugh with little tots, and sympathetic enough to be considerate of old age. Then when comes the day of lowered shades and soft footsteps and the smell of tuberoses, all can say with the truth ringing clear, he was an honorable man. GEORGE CLARK Norfolk, Va Who Are The Debtors? By R. A. ADAMS Addressing a class of graduates a speaker said, "Soon you are to be graduated and leave your alma mater; soon you are to face the world in which you are to make your way; you have done well; you have merited the honors soon to be conferred upon you; but, as you go out, I admonish you not to go with the false idea that the world owes you something because you have graduated; for the truth is, you are the debtors." All who can reason will agree as to the soundness of this philosophy and will urge graduates to accept it as 100% sound, for nothing could be frather from the truth than that graduates represent the creditor class rather than the debtor class, and the world must bow down to them and say, "These are the gods who brought us out of the land of Egypt and the house of bondage." Saturday, June 12, 1926 MONARCH OF ALL HE SURVEYS THE GRADUATE Have We A New Dred Scott Decision? By KELLY MILLEP Some time ago when the Supreme Court decided that persons of the Mongolian race were not naturalizable, I characterized the action as a new Dred Scott Decision. This decision set up a sharp discrimination between persons based purely on race and blood. This doctrine was sons of the almon-golden race were not naturalizable, I characterized the action as a new Died Scott Decision. This decision set up a sharp discrimination between persons based purely on race and blood. This doctrine was wholly alien to American law previous to the judgment in the case of the Missouri Negro whose name the Supreme Court has immortalized. The recent decision of the Supreme Court is in no sense parallel to the Dred Scott Decision. In fact the decision involves no racial features as a purely judicial action. The Negro feature of the case is only incidental. The legality of the covenants in question, as attorney Marshall argued before the Supreme Court, might as well have included Catholics and Presbyterians as well as Negroes, so far as the legal aspect of the covenant was concerned. It is true that the Negro is the intended victim of the restricted covenants. It is also true that the racial inference of the decision militates against him. The segregation ordinances based frankly on the grounds of race have been declared unconstitutional. Neither state nor city Yes, the graduates are the debtors. The world owes them nothing because they had sense enough to stick to their work and cultivate their own minds. They are the debtors and the world is the creditor. Graduates are debtors to their parents whose sacrifices and sufferings made their accomplishments possible; to the taxpayers whose hard-earned money supports and sustains our great educational institutions; to teachers who patiently toil in their efforts to inspire the desire for knowledge and to direct its methods of acquirement. And whether they believe it or not, to all of these contributing agencies graduates owe a debt which they never can renay. A young man in straightened circumstances secured a loan from a friend of his father, and when he tendered the amount in payment, this friend said, "I do not need it, so I have decided to use it as an investment in humanity; you keep it until you find an individual in the same condition you were when you came to me, then you will deliver the amount, with interest, to him, with the instructions to do as I am directing you, and thus this money will be a perpetual blessing. So every graduate is required to discharge his indebtedness by helping others as he himself has been helped. Dr. Miller sees nothing in the Supreme Court decision disclaiming jurisdiction in the Haven Curtis-Corrigan property covenant to parallel the Dred Scott Decision. "In fact, the decision involves no racial features as a purely judicial action," declares Dr. Miller. He states that there was nothing in question before the high court except the legality of the covenants and the Negro feature of the case was only incidental. There are still other approaches of attack on these restrictive covenants, Dean Miller observes, and asserts that the recent decision will constitute a defeat to the race only if Negros accept it supremely and fail to renew the fight. can legally restrict the use of property on racial grounds. We may naturally expect that the several communities will experiment with all variety of devises to accomplish segregation without violating the Supreme Court decision. The duel will be a continuous one as long as the white race holds its present sentiment. Fresh contrivances will be continuously brought forth which the race will continuously combat. The whites have won the first battle. The covenants have not been declared unconstitutional, and therefore will stand until some more effective effort has been made to upset them. The attorneys in the first instance deemed it wise to test these covenants on the ground of race discrimination, and have lost. It might be well that this expedient should have been resorted to in the first instance. The ground has been cleared. The future fight must be based upon other considerations. The Supreme Court did not close the door of hope. The way is still open to attack these covenants on the ground of restrictive use of property without reference to the narrow issue of race. It might be well if the N. A. A. C. P. would undertake to foster a test case in which neither the Negro nor the Negro issue should figure at all. It is very risky to hazard favorable or affirmative action either by Congress or by the courts on the race issue in face of strong countervailing public sentiment. The Negro must judiciously tie up his fortune with that of the general welfare. Some time ago, I cautioned the race not to feel too jubilant over the Supreme Court decisions negativizing residential segregation by state or municipality. This was secured at a time when public policy was dictated by war emergencies. It can not, I advised, be taken as representative of the normal attitude of the American mind, nor serve as a gague of future expectation. In the meantime the race should not fail to commend the courage and determination of the colored men and women who jeopardized their own selfish interests to test the validity of these restrictive covenants. A number of our high-minded colored citizens deliberately purchased property in the covenerated block perdling the trial to test the validity of the restrictions. They risked a clouded title to their own property in order that racial tight of residence might be legally tested and determined. Nor is the credit less to be accorded because the case has failed. James A. Cobb who largely through his own initiative and enterprise pushed the case to the Supreme Court deserves a special vote of racial thanks. He used his best intelligence, and judgment, and secured the best advice and consultation which were locally and nationally available. They brought the case to the Supreme Court on the issue which in their judgment was the best calculated to win. The court took a different view. The same thing happens in as many cases as not where the ablest counsel are involved. No one can forfeit how any judge is going to decide any case. Every judicial decision disappoints as many people as it gratifies. Very little headway can be made against these exactions of race prejudice until we can precipitate public opinion in our behalf. It has been suggested that the race through use of the franchise have laws enacted in the several states for bidding segregation on account of race. This would indeed be the most effective way of accomplishing the desired result, if it were only feasible. There is no possible hope of effecting such action in the Southern border states. It is exceedingly doubtful if such action could be secured in any state with a considerable city element. It is at present unthinkable to essay such legislation on a national scale. Congress could hardly be induced to enact such legislation. The Negro vote is not sufficiently numerous nor has it the requisite discipline and direction to focus upon such definite proposition. The question could not be made a party issue. For the issue of residential segregation has no partisan feature. The feeling is as strong with Republicans as with Democrats. The issue is as keen in Detroit as in New Orleans. The only reasonable hopes lies in the courts. I will still persist in the belief that it is in the Supreme Court of the United States, notwithstanding recent discouragement. The policy and practice of segregation is nation-wide. The relief, if relief may be hoped for, must be through a remedy as broad as the evil. Following the adoption by the Prince of Wales of the long cigarette holder, London dealers have had their stocks of such smokers' articles exhausted.
