JAMES A. COBB TAKES THE OATH OF OFFICE Norfolk Journal and Guide BISHOP GREGG DECLINES PRESIDENCY OF HOWARD FOLLOW THE GUIDE Leads to PROGRESS EK TO HAVE O YEAR TERM USPENDED Almond Citizens, Led By Prominent Lawyer And Newspapers Move To Reopen Case of Susie Boyd. EDITION LAID BEFORE THE TRIAL JUDGE (special to the Journal and Guide) Richmond, Ma., June 23—T h e m o n s of this city, white and colo r are making every effort to that the 30-year penitentiary once recently imposed upon the Boyd upon her plea of guillotine three forgery counts in the sentiments Court shall not stand. The leaders in this movement are W. Oppenhimer, a prominent lawer, T. L. Presston, president of the bank on which the man is alleged to have forged checks and the Times-Dispatch. Mr. Oppenhimer has laid before W. Kirk of the Hustings out a petition asking for a renaming of the case. In this rehearsal he is ably supported by Mr. Rehman and the Times-Dispatch. Mr. Oppenhimer brought out in petition that the woman is the support of her 6-months old child and that it is the first time she has arrested for any offense. He asks that the case be reheated and the woman allowed to not guilty before a jury and the sentence be suspended. The petition asserts that the checks upon which the seniors of ten years each were imputed for the sums of $12, $4 and $8 and that the aggregate amount of all the checks, 22 number, which the accused man was alleged to have was $183. considerable discussion arose in a passage of the petition said that "the judge of the case asked if she had a lawyer to help her and she told him she had a lawyer, as she did not Mr. Oppenhimer." Mathews and Commons Attorney Satterfield both said that the question was asked that the woman mentioned the case of a lawyer. Another incident arose when Preston spoke of the woman "in ignorant colored woman." Mathews said: "She is not ignorant colored woman. For it is one of the most subtle of stealing." Mr. Preston amended his statement to the that she was ignorant of the procedure. Supporting Grounds the following grounds in support of the motions were mentioned in the petition: 1. That the accused is an ignorant colored woman; that she always worked as a domestic servant; that she is utterly uninterested with courts and criminal matters; that this is the first she has ever been arrested convicted of any offense, and that she is the sole support of her infant 6 months of age. 2. That on June 7 the accused, a letter to Mr. 'Lee Man', childhood name by which H. W.

The said letter is here linked as part hereof. The said letter was received by Oppenheimer on the following Tuesday, June 8, and at a clock on that day he came to the accused at the city jail. He accused then told him that he had been arrested on Satur- while on her way to work that she had been charged for forgiving several checks on A. V.

OLD NEWSPAPER GIVES INSIGHT ON CITY'S HISTORY 30-Year Old Copy Of "The Recorder," Comes To Light Bringing Recollections Of Days And Men Long Passed The voice of the generation just passed, the remnants of which, though in the evening of life, are here still carrying on, came quietly but strikingly out of a past of 30 years to the Journal and Guide office this week in the form of an ancient copy of "The Recorder," of the date of Saturday, 1596, published in York, at 287 Queen Street. "The Recorder" was a four-page seven column weekly and though its motto states: "D devoted to the interests of all the people," it was a publication edited by Negroes, published by Negroes and chronicling the happenings of interest to the Negro race. When one reads this issue of "The Recorder," one immediately becomes convinced that national politics was a thing of the moment in Norfolk among colored people in the '90s and the paper was uncompromisingly Republican, one article taking up nearly the entire front page and telling of the dedication of the new Masonic Temple on Queen street (now the Second Prescinct Police Station), an event that took place on October 12, 1896 and giving a history of Masonry, while the in-between articles are mostly a boost for the William McKinley-Garret A. Hobart Republican presidential ticket, with some personal mentions added to make an "all-round newspaper." the staff of "The Recorder"—some of whom have crossed the Great Divide—and some of whom are here yet seeing that the present generation does not monopolize the hemisphere, consisted of William M. Reid, president; William M. Thorood, vice president; J. C. Asbury, secretary; James *P. Carter, treasurer; Matt N. Lewis, managing editor and W. H. C. Brown, associated editor. Mr. Reid who became a successful lawyer, of Portsmouth, has passed on. William (Bill) Thorood, yet amongst the living and the prominent citizen of Norfolk. J. C. Asbury is numbered among the countless of the dead, and so is present well-known family of Carters. Matt N. Lewis is still editing, but is at present managing editor, editor-in-chief, associate editor and publisher of the Newport News Star, while W. H. C. Brown set himself upon a surer foundation than newspapering and is now a prominent business man and banker, of Newport News, Norfolk and elsewhere. An Enterprising Sheet "The Recorder" was an enterprising sheet. Not only did it cover Norfolk "like the morning dew," judging from its advertisements and personal mentions, but it also reached over to Portsmouth and out to Suffolk and Richmond, touching some intervening points such as Bower's Hill, Chuacutch and even carryin' a New York col- The front page feature telling of the dedication of the Masonic Temple and giving the speech of R.

I would like personally to express my appreciation to each and every one, but, owing to the multiplicity of duties upon me, at present I shall have to use the instrumentality of the newspapers, which, I know from past experiences, will be only too glad to be the vehicle for the expression of my thanks." pressure Judge Cobb is filling the vacancy caused by the death of the late Judge Robert H.

The case was reached on the court docket Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock but owing to the lateness of the hour it was carried over. A large number of spectators expecting to hear the trial sat in the court room from 10 o'clock in the morning until 4 o'clock in the afternoon only to learn that the case was not to be heard on that day. Hill was in court, as were some of his relatives from North Carolina. He is represented by Attorney John W. Davis. VIRGINIAN DEPLORES RACE'S DEBASEMENT That the offensive word "nigger" is certain to grow more and more into disuse is distinctly emphasized in a recent letter to the Washington Post signed by one Alfred B. Williams, who lets it be known that he is a Virginian, deploring the flagrant and unnecessary use of the word by Southern congressmen when discussing affairs concerning Negroes. The attitude of Mr. Williams in this respect is identical with that of a very large element of refined white people who have long since appreciated the offensiveness of the term and discarded it out of respect for the sensibility of their fellow colored citizens. Mr. Williams's letter which the Post published, specifically refers to the proceedings of a congressional committee public hearing on "wrong" "nigger" was repeatedly applied to a Negro veteran of the World War. The letter reads as follows: "To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Some of us have been taught that the first and essential principle of what is called a gentleman is consideration for the feelings and rights of others. "I note in the stenographic report of the proceedings of congressional committee published in the Post that members of the House from Southern states peatedly used the word "nigger" to a Negro veteran of the world war, insane from 8 Years Each On Highway Robbery Charge 8 Years Each On Highway Robbery Charge Willie Howard, alias "Hoeckey-foot," and Bernald Ashford, tried in Corporation Court No. 1 Wednesday on a charge of highway robbery at the point of a pistol were found guilty and sentenced to a term of eight years in the penitentiary each. Howard and Ashford were alleged to have held up and robbed Ralph Bryant of $46.00 on Charlotte street near Church early on the morning of May 2. injuries incurred in the service of his country. They seem to have rolled the word under their longues as a delicious morsel and to have thrust it into the record to stand there as evidence of their own superb valor and allegiance to noble principles. One of them boasted, I believe, that "we of the South, know no other term for all of American birth or descent. He may have stated accurately the customs and manners prevalent where he comes from. A well considerable number of Southerners, however, feel that they are undignified, improper and indecent to offend and humiliate wonton people who generally are wonderfully behaved, friendly, inoffensive and useful citizens. I can not help wondering whether the attitude and language of these representatives of the sovereign people would not change materially and rapidly if the "nigger" had votes in their districts and power to reduce their annual earnings to normaly.

Judge —Photo by Searlock GETS YEAR FOR STRIKING WOMAN WITH A CRANK GETS YEAR FOR STRIKING WOMAN WITH A CRANK Leander Godfrey, charged with having struck Mrs. Lizzie Swain, of 957 Dalphin street, over the head with an automobile crankshaft on the afternoon of Saturday, May 22, was convicted upon an assault indictment in Corporation Court No. 2 Tuesday and given one year in the penitentiary. It was claimed that Mrs. Swain was hit by Godfrey when she attempted to act as peacemaker between him and her son who were engaged in an altercation. The woman was said to have struck the highest wounds, the slightest abrasion. Considering the fact that Godfrey had been drinking when he assaulted the aged woman and had himself sustained several stab wounds at the hands of infuriated citizens who witnessed the attack, the jury let him off with a year's sentence.

Offers $25,000 For Y. M. C. A. (By The Associated Negro Press) Jacksonville, Fla., June 23— An offer of $25,000 for a Negro Y. M. C. A. for this city by Julius Rosenwald, the Chicago philanthropist, who is the executive secretary of the local white Y. M. C. A. The offer is made that the citizens of Jacksonville, both white and colored must raise $125,000 and start the building, then after sixty days or when Mr. Rosenwald is assured that the project will go through, he will give his $25,000 cash gift. The local Y. M. C. A. is not willing to undertake the raising of this sum unless they are assured that the white citizens of Jacksonville will contribute as well as the colored citizens of Jacksonville because it is a clearing house for Negroes who must pass through here to reach other parts of the state, and has a Negro population of almost 50,000. OF HO CLOSE RANKS IS MOORFIELD STOREY'SCALL Octogenarian And Eminent Constitutional Lawyer Tells Negroes That For Them There Are No Parties.

Mr. Storey who was secretary during Reconstruction days to Senator Charles Sumner, and has been president of the American Bar Association, could not come to Chicago because of the strain of such a journey in his advanced years, sent the message read last night. His Message "We represent more than twelve million persons of Negro blood." Mr. Storley's message continued, "entitled under our constitution and laws to every right that belongs to any American citizen, sure eventually to receive those rights, and determined to fight for them until they are secured.

WARD OTHER NAMES BEFORE THE COMMITTEE Howard University Alumni Supporting Deans Miller And Holmes For Position Declined by Bishop Gregg. NAMES OF OTHERS ARE MENTIONED FOR POST (Special Correspondence) Washington, D. C. June 22—Bishop John Andrew Gregg of the African Methodist Episcopal Church has declined to accept the presidency of Howard University, to which he was elected by the board of trustees on June 8, to succeed Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, who's resignation becomes effective June 30. Committee Meets The committee appointed at the February meeting of the board of trustees to make recommendations regarding multiple persons for the presidency met in New York city on Tuesday. This committee consists of Colonel Colquell Roseveelt, Dr. Charles R. Brown, Alfred Bushnell Hart, John R. Hawkins, Dr. Sara W. Brown, Dr. M. O. Dumas and Dr. Hugh G. B. Pierce. This committee has had under consideration for the vacancy John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the A, M. E. Church and president of the Prudential Bank; Emmet J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University; the Rev. Jesse E. Moorland, a member of the Howard University board of trustees; Professors Charles H. Wesley, Dwight O. W. Holmes and Kelly Miller of Howard University, and Rev. Mordecal Johnson, pastor of a Baptist Church in Charleston, W. Va. Neither Dr. Hawkins nor Dr. Scott is in a receptive mood, it is said. Dr. Scott prefers to continue in his present position. The Rev. Mordecal Johnson is regarded as a likely choice. He is said to be the administration candidate and it was planned to put over his selection at the board meeting when Bishop Gregg was chosen. He failed to appeal to the personnel inspection of the members of the nominating committee, which practiced illiminated him from consideration at that time. The Rev. Jesse Moorland looms as a strong contender. He was placed in nomination at the previous board meeting against Bishop Gregg. He is said to be strongly supported by certain members of the board. Professors Kelly Miller and Dwight O. W. Holmes are the candidates of the General Alumni Association of Howard University. Dean Miller is their first choice. Prof. Charles H. Wesley is also strongly urged for the vacancy, but he is opposed by the administration and certain members of the faculty. It is probable that special meeting of the board of trustees will be called by Dr. Charles R. Brown, its chairman, to hear the report of the nominating committee and elect a successor to Dr. Durkee.

This encouraged me so much, I kept right on using it and now I have an abundance of long, straight hair which I can arrange in any manner I wish." Improved Pluko Hair Dressing is fairly taking the country by storm as more and more men and women, like Miss Wells, are finding how easy and pleasant it is to use this delicately fragranced preparation which melts at the temperature of the scalp; soothing the itching of dandruff and quickly doing away with this trouble; making the hair soft, and glossy and easily arranged; and stimulating its growth, so it soon becomes long, straight and abundant.

The famous Sabbath Glee Club of Richmond, will appear in concert at the City Armory Hall on Sunday afternoon, June 27, under auspices of Eureka Lodge No. 5. I.B.P. O. E. of W., and the local health committee of the Negro Organization Society for the benefit of the $10,000 drive for Piedmont Sanatorium at Burkeville. A new building is one of the most urgent needs at this Sanatorium which is a retreat for Negro tubercular patients, and the Negro Organization Society is endeavoring to raise $10,000 in the State to provide this building. Norfolk's quota of the $10,000 is $1400. The fame of the Sabbath Glee Club is both national and international, it having been described by Hon. David Lloyd George, former premier of England on his recent visit to this country, as "one of the best male choirs I have ever heard. I am almost certain it is the best." Mr. Douglass Gordon, former editor of the Norfolk Ledger-Dispatch and now editor of the Richmond Times-Dispatch, a foremost music and drama critic, reviewing one of the Sabbath Glee Club's recitals said: "This is one of the few organizations that sing spirituals according to their 'true mode. That is to say, not only are these odd, sometimes plaintive and sometimes stirring pieces of folk music sung without accompaniment, but they cannot be sung to accompaniment—certainly not to accompaniment by keyed instruments—for the reason that in countless cases quarte: are sung, whereas our keyed instruments sound only full tones and half tones. "Moreover, while most of the spirituals sung by the club are published in various arrangements not one of these arrangements contains the precise version of any one of the spirituals sung by the club. This is true, not only for the reason that our system of notation does not recognize quartetones, but for the further reason that much of the harmony produced by these singers is spontaneous. Matthews is strict with his singers where strictness is required but when he recognizes that any one of them has an accurate ear and so keen an instinct for harmony as to warrant it, he pretty much lets him sing as he pleases. permits him to make his own harmony. Thus, the harmonies in any given spiritual is not infrequently varied. Thus, again, they have never been transcribed. Except that the melodies follow the true curve, there is little regidity of expression in the wonderfully effective interpretation given by the club." A tremendous crowd is expected to hear the club sing here Sunday afternoon as the occasion provides both an opportunity to render needed aid to a most worthy cause and to hear the best male chorus in this section of the country.

Negro Baseball Must Be Uniformly Patronized If It Is To Reach STARS OF THE LEAGUE EQUAL OF THE GOOD ONES IN MAJORS PAGE FOUR (Continued from last week) Horrea, the Cuban indefiler, for many years the star second-sacker for the Cuban Stars of the Negro National League, is now drawing his monthly stipend from the Boston Red Sox of the American League, and kicking the second sack in great style for the Bean eaters; Dibut, Cuban hurler, who played with the Cuban Stars in the Negro National League for several seasons, was grabbed by the Cincinnati Reds, but later farmed out for more seasoning; the Louisville Colonels of the American. Association have a roster which reads like the roll call of a Cuban convention. Most every big league club in America carries at least one Cuban player. This MUST MEAN SOMETHING TO WHOSE WHO THINK! Surely Negro baseball can be truthily said to be equal in mechanical play to that boasted brand of the big leagues. If not, why is it they grab off, every Negro or Cuban player who can possibly pass for white? Why is it they meet defeat almost every time they consent to play a colored club? There The Only Difference About the only difference between big league baseball—white and black—and again we m e a n from a mechanical standpoint—there are more white big league clubs under the cover of organized baseball than there are colored clubs, and because of the fact that they have more than a thousand times more people to draw from, are able, therefore, to get and maintain more good players, thereby supporting more good clubs. Colored baseball is not yet able to compete with the white leagues in either of these two branches. The whites have hundreds of smaller leagues to draw from—organized clubs or players are developed for the big show. The whites have three leagues—two of these have working agreements, the Negro National League and the Eastern Association. The forming of the Southern Negro League is a step towards perfecting the circle in colored baseball, and it is only a matter of a short time before all the leagues will be working in harmony under the same agreements, rules, etc. This will be a step forward in Negro baseball. have little The most interesting about Negro baseball is the remarkable progress made under the heavy handicap experienced by club owners who have fought to make the game what it is today. Colored players have little chance to work their way gradually into big time colored baseball. They just got in—and they have, in a large measure, made good! Score one for the colored ball players! They are denied the steady and gradual training received by a whiffle player, but by the big players yet they develop, by the hardest, under fire, into real stars of the diamond. Score another one for Negro ball players! The colored baseball players haven't had the same, or anything like the same afforded the whites, yet they have produced their home-run kings, wonderful outfielders, fleet base-runners, star pitchers, and in fact, stars of every position of the game who rank with the best that can be displayed by the Big Leagues. The only difference is that we cannot get the whites, and this surely is not expected of the colored group. As soon as fans who follow the play of the colored league clubs take note of these facts and weigh the matter carefully—the game is going to advance by leaps and bounds. Can Hold Its Own Pick your white club, and we will pick a colored club its equal. That's our answer to the comparative strength of colored and white clubs. A good colored club can hold its own against a good white club. They have proved it many times. Organized Negro baseball is coming—getting better each year, but it must be colored. We have colored fans if it is to grow as it should. THAT'S YOUR PART IN THE FUTURE OF NEGRO BASEBALL. Play well, your part and the Negro player will do his part. Color has nothing to with baseball! MEMPHIS LEADS SOUTHERN LOOP (Boyl The Associated Negro Press) Memphis, Team, June 14—According to hitting power the Memphis Red Sox should be on top of the Southern League. The Memphians with six regulars having batting averages ranging from 320 to 420 and the others hitting around the 400 mark, are leading the league in hitting, with Birmingham and Albany tied for second home. Sykes the former Morehouse stray proving to be one of the hardest hitters in the circuit and has the respect of all of the moundmen. In addition to hitting consistently, this collegian is a fast outfielder and dangerous on the bases. The Birmingham Black Barons continued their winning streak by taking three straight games from the Nashville Elites, and are still leading the parade. Memphis CUBANS TAKE BOTH ENDS OF DOUBLE BILL CUBANS TAKE BOTH ENDS OF DOUBLE BILL Philadelphia, June 19.—Apparently in the throes of a slump or bending, the opposition too tough, the World's Champion Hildale outfit absoured two more lacings from the Cuban Stars, present leaders in the Eastern League chase, when Senor Pompez' crew matched both ends of a twin bill tendered the fans in the Saturday matinee at Hildale Park. Juanelo Mirabel's effective curving permitted the invading Islanders to cop the 5-6 to score, Martin Dihigo's home fence out over the long right field fence was the main factor b y which the Cubans emerged a victor in the night-eap set, a hard fought eleven-inning contest that the Islanders grabbed 4 to 3. # HILLDALE R.

FLOWERS HANDS FITZSIMMONS A LACING (By Ilyston News Service) New York, June 25—Theodore (Tirer) Flowers, who holds the world's middleweight championship, conceded nearly twenty pounds to Young Bob Fitzsimmons last Friday night at Boyles Thirty Acres in Jersey City and handed him a lace in a ten round no decision bout. The Tiger, fighting his second since he dethroned Harry Greb last February, escaped from an automobile accident with minor injuries only a few days ago, but his speed and punching power were unimpaired as far as one could determine against the heavier, slowing moving Fitzsimmons. Flowers carried off the honors in practically every round of the ten. He belted away at Fitzsimons with a forceful, telling left hook that turned Fitz's body from his waist up to his neck into a mass of red flesh. He flickered his right into Fitz's face and broke up his attack time and again. And when the son of Ruby Robert attempted to use his weight to force Flowers against the ropes, he got nothing for his pains, for the Tiger fought his way out of any and all danger with that left of his. He kept hammering away at his waist unceasingly and on a few occasions was Bob able to take the play away from the champion. Fitz put up a good fight and made the battle an interesting one from first to last, but he was outclassed all the way. Fitz opened a cut over the champion's eye midway in the bout, and this bliz slightly toward the end. That was the only damage inflicted on Flowers. A crowd of more than 15,000 witnessed the show in the huge pine arena erected by Tex Rickard for the Dempsey-Carpentier fight. showed its class by winning two out of three from the rejuvenated Black Crackers.

PIERCE ELECTED TO A TRIPPLE CAPTAINCY PIERCE ELECTED TO A TRIPPLE CAPTAINCY Lawrenceville, Va., June 24.—An interesting feature of the commencement exercises of St. Paul Normal and Industrial School was the award of the "St. P." monograms in the various forms of sport, including baseball, basketball, tennis and track. Coaches Douglass and Taylor were forced during the past season to use much new material in all branches, and it is felt that an excellent ground work was laid for the ensuing session. Much enthusiasm has been shown by the student body with the announcement of the possible erection of a new gymnasium at the Alumni. Tigardom will respond heartily to the long-looked for building in which its athletes will be housed. Booker Taliaferro Pierce, '27, of Chapanne, N. C., was elected basketball, football and track captain for next year. This is a signal honor, and the triple captain is without precedent in the cheered and sacred athletic history of St. Paul. Pierce is the C. I A. A. Shot Put Champion, his reeled 38t, 9 1-2 inches. He see a new record in 1925, and his own record at St. Paul this year.

The Norfolk Tigers, crack local aggregation took the first game of a three-game series from the Lancaster Black Crackers, of Harrisburg, Pn., Monday at League Park, 9 to 6. Both outfits displayed a good brand of baseball throughout the route, with the home team establishing a lead that the visitors were unable to reach. In the second game of the series the Black Crackers ran wild with the Tigers and didn't stop until a grand total of seventeen runs against five were chalked up. The team from up the line had the number of the local aggregation and it easily romped to a one-sided victory.

The Slides amassed a total of eleven hits for 12 runs, while successfully holding heir opponents to two scattered singles and one lone tally in the first half of the frame. Hill on the mound for the Lambert's Point team had things under control and wasn't seniously threatened during the fray and his teammates went on a rampage, giving him admirable support, in the meanwhile. The Slides pitcher only gave up a pair of inconsequential wallops, feeding the Beacon Light boys out of the palm of his hand. The Portsmouth team used a quartette of pitchers in an effort to check the heavy padding of the locals, but no avail. Each moundsman was sent to the showers pronto. Stanley, who started the game for Portsmouth team listed four innings, giving up twice as many hits. He was pounded all over the outfield so were the relief men. Randolph Jones right gardener showed up will in the outfield for the Slides.

"Body and Soul," was a stirring drama of the lowly, taking the far south as its background. Mercedes Gilbert, Theresa Russell and Lawrence Chonault were the other leading players starred in the production and they played their parts beyond reproach. Mr. Micheaux is in the city on a vacation and in the meantime is working on selections for two projections released in the near future. The working titles of these pictures are: "Black Magic" and "Napoleon," the latter being inspired from the activities of some intimate insights on the aspirations of Mareus Garvey, self-styled provisional president of Africa and former commander-in-chief of the Black Star Line.

GROUP OF COLLEGE MEN ENTER THE INSURANCE FIELD York University, Atlanta, Morehouse, Wilberforce, Alcorn, and Tuskegee will come to the company on June 20, bringing with them excellent academic training, lofty aspirations and high ideals to contribute to their future profession. In order to further prepare these men for their life work, the Company will conduct its Home Office from June 20, to August 8, a thorough course in insurance salesmanship. L. F. Simpkins, Educational Director, who recently completed the course in insurance at New York University, will conduct this school of insurance assisted by the secretary, W. Ellis Stewart, and Irving Armstrong. The course will be open to all beginning salesmen. The problem confronting Negro companies heretofore has been that of interesting young college men and women in the field work of life insurance, although the larger white companies are yearly attracting large numbers of college graduates to their field forces. Now that a step has been taken in the right direction, it is expected that each year more college men will follow these beginners into a lucrative field that has long been neglected.

BROWN & BROWN, INC. Exclusive Sales' Agents "A Man's Judgment Is NoBetter Than his Information" ROUP OF COLLEGE MEN ENTER THE INSURANCE FIELD (By Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., June 22—A step that bids fair to mark a new era in Life Insurance Salesmanship was taken recently by the Liberty Life Insurance Company of Illinois. This Company in conference with its policy of keeping abreast of the times, launched a movement last winter to interest college men, in life insurance salesmanship as a profession. A visit to most of the Negro schools and colleges was made by Dr. M. O. Bousfield and W. Louis Davis several months ago and the possibilities of this field were laid before the senior classes in these schools. It was made plain to them that life insurance carried with it not only lucrative remuneration over a large number of years, but also that the element of service to mankind was involved to a greater degree than in almost any other field of endeavor. This view was heartily endorsed by the Presidents of the schools visited and as a result of this a group of fifteen young men, graduates of Howard, Lincoln, New Make Yourself at Home The two best places in the world to at are home and Blue Front Delicatessen 517 E.

He admits that he is very favorably impressed with Norfolk, and is not adverse to locating here permanently, if he sees that business here would justify him. GUIDE POINTERS TO PROGRESS The man who talks of nothing but sickness, hard times and bad business is an evil-door; shun him. He is never 'feeling well,' times are getting worse, and business will never be good again—are his main texts. He is a poison-sprayer. Any one who listens to his preachments is taking mental poison. On the other hand, you should cultivate the companionship of the man who thinks success and works for it. That man who is cheerful in spite of obstacles that seem insurmountable; that man who is hopeful when disaster looms over him; that man who never loses faith in himself and God when in the very midst of object failure—that is the type of man who will eventually overcome obstacles, avert disaster and turn failure into success. There is one quality or factor that we must cultivate if we would be successful—it is COURAGE. Courage—the perfect will which knows no fear—the elixir that cures the inferiority complex, the conviction that your spirit is as great as the other fellow. Courage begets courage; or as Emerson puts it in his essay on 'Courage,' "There are degrees of courage, and each step upward makes us acquainted with a higher note.

Pageant To Be Staged By State Women's Clubs Hampton, Va., June—A pageant in which ten nations in native costume will be represented is to be a part of the program at Roanoke, June 29 to July 2, when the Virginia State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of which Mrs. Janie Porter Barnett is president, meets for its nineteenth annual convention. This organization has been co-operating with State and community agencies for almost two decades in its work of social development, and has to its credit such worthwhile accomplishments as the establishing of the Virginia Industrial School at Peake. Great interest centers around the meeting this year because of the active part being taken by the Junior members of the Federation on July 1st. They are to present the pageant, "Gool Will, the Magician." Floats for the parade are being planned by the heads of each of the ten departments under which the Federation carries on its work. Junior members in different parts of the State and the school children of Roanoke have been making paper flowers since early spring with which to decorate the floats. This example of co-operation indicates the enthusiasm for the work already developed in the Virginia club women of the future and is putting into action what the Federation has always stood for. The exhibit will be exceptionally fine this year. The State Board of Health is lending posters to illustrate the work of each department and the Home Economics department will at noon each day hold a demonstration appropriate to the hour. The "Open Forum" to be held on Thursday night with the topic Health for discussion will be lead by doctors and nurses, and anyone will be permitted to ask questions. Religious Training and Recreations, under the leadership of authorities in these two fields, will also be discussed at this time. On Friday night the Convention will hear Mrs. Mary Church Terrell of Washington, D.C., the first president of the National Association of Colored Women, who is now the honorary president.

When the awards of Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Lincoln, and the great hand whose spokesmen were Sumner, Phillips, Currison and their associates, are quoted on every side, it is time to ask our fellow citizens what those words mean, and if they are proud to repeat them, whether it is only a familiar jingle or as words of vital meaning by which they wish to live. The great commandment, the golden rule which is the very essence of Christianity, does not bid us love our white neighbors as ourselves. Christ does not ask that little white children come unto Him 'for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven.' "We flatter ourselves that we are the most enlightened people on earth and are free with our criticism of European nations. Yet we are the only people on earth where human beings are burned alive at the stake, where men, women and children look on with approval and where the murders go unwhipped of justice and walk the streets, where the smell of burning flesh still pollutes the air, with heads erect exulting in their barbarism.

The Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias and Courts of Calanthe of Virginia met in its annual session at Staunton on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of last week with Grand Chancellor W. B. F. Crowell, of Roanoke, presiding and with Supreme Grand Chancellor S. W. Green, a visitor. The sessions were characterized by harmony and enthusiasm to a very marked degree. The attendance was splendid, there being one of the largest delegations of State Pythians gathering in annual session in recent years. The reports of the officers showed marked gains for the lodge numerically and financially for the year, the reading of which provoked a genuine renewal of the old-time Pythian spirit. Mayor Delivers Welcome The sessions began Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock in Mt. Zion Baptist Church, of which the Rev. Dr. McCreey is the pastor. The welcome address on behalf of the city was delivered by the Mayor, and was responded to on behalf of the Lodge by Grand Chancellor Crowell. The reading of the officers' reports were enthusiastically received as was the annual address of the Grand Chancellor. The report of the Grand Keeper of Records and Seal, Eugene West, of Norfolk, was one of the most illuminating and encouraging he has rendered the lodge during his four years tenure in that office. Not only did the figures of the report point to a most encouraging increase in receipts over the previous year, but the manner in which the books and records had been kept eloited the unanimous approval of the body, which was very distinctly reflected in Mr. West's reelection as Grand Keeper of Records and Seal for the fourth term. The Report His report showed that the receipts for the year were $29,127.03—death claims paid, $20,127.25, leaving a balance in the endowment department for the meeting of death claims of $4,720.25. These figures show a marked gain over last year. The report also showed an increase in membership during the past twelve months of more than 500; the issuance of 800 new policies for the year and the addition of three new lodges. Virginia Pythias now comprise 172 lodges and 5,513 members. There were 134 death claims paid last year. Mr. West's report also noted that during the past year the Grand Lodge has received a payment of $18,000 on its deposits held in the defunct Mechanics Savings Bank, of Richmond. During the three years the Virginia Pythians have enjoyed renewed affiliations with the Supreme Grand Lodge and since return of the affairs of the Order into the hands of its officers by the receiver, the lodge has experienced a steady growth; enthusiasm has been renewed; the membership list has reflected a continuous increase and the revenues have experienced a marked upward trend. Loyalty, harmony and singleness of purpose mark the officers and members to a degree that bespeak unprecedented progress for the lodge in the ensuing year. Aside from the inspirational addresses made by prominent speakers at the annual session, one of particular note being the address of Dr. McCreey, Mt. Zion pastor, another most creditable feature was the street parade and competitive drill.

L, a young man quite well-known in this city, was to retire after completing eight years' service in the United States Navy, his body was shipped to his home in Pensacola, Fla., for interment. Young Gilling died in the service just a day or so prior to the end of his last enlistment period. Mrs. A. J. Kerr, of Birmingham, came to Norfolk and accompanied the body of her brother to Pensacola. The death of Mrs. Kerr's brother made the second time that tragedy had struck in her family in the space of three days. She received the news of Alfred's death just three days after the death of her husband, who had just returned from California where he had gone to seek to regain his health. Alfred Gilling had a large number of friends and acquaintance in this city and other sections of the country. Wherever the young yeoman was known he was popular, being of a most pleasing personality and genial disposition. He enjoyed the respect of the people in each community where his lot as a sailor cast him.

Dr. P. BERNARD YOUNG, JR. Lynchburg, Va.—The Hill City! immediately that name conjures in the minds of the persons hearing it multitude of reactions. There are mental pictures of verdant vistas of beauty to be seen on the hill tops across broad areas of undulating countryside. The imagination turns from the implying view to the bustling life of moderate sized city—The Hill City of Virginia, Lynchburg! Travelers accustomed to the level of the coastal plains, travelers westward to Lynchburg and stopping there, or those from the long prairies of the Middle West, are suddenly are struck by the unusually steep grades in the city and are subject to a peculiar type of thrill when passing thru a city to find that for blocks at the time there is but one way to each streets from certain other streets. And that method is that climbing steps. This mode of locomotion—self-pulsion up often long and sometimes perpendicular appearing—might awe and discourage a pyrotec. The natives, some of them, actually seem to take a joy to the climbs. It at least is exhilarating about the city by automobile or trolley is to experience, if with modification, the feel that comes from trips on the hills, dipping "dixie Flyer" as is located at Buckroe But let the reader not get the impression that Lynchburg is simply the City of Hills. Located in Campbell county, with a total population, as reported in the census of 1920, of 30,070, of which 8,329 are Negroes. Lynchburg is quite interesting municipality. - Raleigh reports estimate a growth of several thousand among both white and Negro populations. The total population of Campbell county is over twenty-six thousand, covering over eight thousand Neckers. By the simple process of counting, for example, for the Hill City and surrounding territory of nearly fifty thousand persons, of which approximately seventeen thousand persons of In such a population one expects to find indication of prosperity, a spirit of progress, a bevy of beautiful women, wide awake in fine, modern, and often splendid homes. Here one should expect to find little difficulty in implementing a constructive race consciousness, in seeing property owned by Negroes, business owned by us, operated by us, institutions learning molding character and building ability. In the Hill City can find just that, and more. Lynchburg being typical in general with other cities, there are three things one might wish were present. gro Business in Lynchburg Three railroads will bring one or one away from the Hill but. Once a visitor breathes an invigorating air of the hills, she something of the cordiality the natives, there is little intention to leave. The Norfolk and Western, the Southern, the emasque and Ohio—these are transportation lines Lynchburg is of. Coming into the city, one looks for a hotel. In the area of the section in which the two business places concentrate on, one finds the hotel he manhasset Hotel. M. M. Jones proprietorship is located at the corner Fifth and Polk streets. Mr. Jones has recently renovated and recently retouched the three building, which is frame, and possesses a clean modern, and hotel room. On the first floor are the dining room and lounge rooms on the second and third are the rooms and baths. Jones greets his patrons with excellent hospitality and his workers apparently gives factory service. though there are various sorts the Negro business organizations here and there in Lynch Fifth street can appropriate passing the Negro business Passing down Fifth street, Portfolio Journal and Guide cor- dorate a law that Lynchburg barber shops, its cleaning pressing shops, drug store, office of several companies, its own pas- sage and baggage transfer com- modern undertaking estab- PAGES 7 TO 12 burg, N d Grow ATION CLOSE TO ARE ENGAGED D ENTERPRISES d College Lends To The real Atmosphere, While prises Abound In Credit- NEW GROWTH OSE TO MAGED RISES Is To The e, While in Credit- including ments norma It ha twent of H igan, ilar w Sut nary Aside the cl in un Steell partn known so Brower G Int lad a fine Prominent Lynchburg Pastor REV. J. W. TYNES, pastor of Eighth Street Baptist Church lishments, billiard parlors—in fact, Lynchburg has in many respects a self-sufficient Negro community, in so far as any community is able to be so. For example, there is the Jas. Jackson Transfer Co on Fifth street; the Kinkle Spences Transfer Co. near Fifth on Jackson, and the Goff Transfer Co. on Pierce street. Fine Drug Store The Bacchus and Reid Pharmacy, Inc., 901 Fifth street, located in the fine Humbles Building, may be used as just one example of progress in Negro business organizations. Mr. H. W. Reid, the manager, modestly outlined the manner by which his store advanced from a rating by Bradstreet and Dunn of New York of eighth in the city four years ago to first in the Hill City today. Bacchus and Reid Pharmacy has a staff of seven, a prescription department and a large fountain and neat service table. The three undertakings and embalming establishments are: the Strange Undertaking Co, the Hliqginbotham Undertaking Co, and the Pror. Undertaking Co. There are branch offices of the National Benefit Life Insurance Co. of Washington, D. C., Mr. H. A. M. Johns, manager, assisted by a staff of 12; the Southern Aid Society of Richmond, Mr. Richard Burton, managen, assisted by several workers. The office is situated on the first floor of the attractive Southern Aid Building. The North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company of Durham, N. C., has a branch office here under the management of Messrs. Pannell and Scott. They are assisted by other workers. This company, as stated in this paper recently, had last year assets of nearly three million dollars; loans to Negro concerns of nearly two million; insurance of over forty-four million dollars in force; and a total income of $2,157,931; and paid out to policy holders, $802,134. Another strong and progressive company with a branch office here is the Richmond Beneficial Insurance Company. Bankers' Fire Insurance Company also is under management of Messrs. Pannell and Scott. It would be impossible to list all of the various places of business. But the grocery stores, the barber shops, the pool rooms, the shoe shine parlors even—every single one is trying to be a creature beloved Himalaya which is succeeding with varying success. These are the bare facts about the business places of Lynchburg in general. A visitor there will receive his own impression. One cannot be far wrong in saying that impression will be favorable. Educational Features of City Undoubtedly the most prominent educational feature of Lynchburg is the Virginia Seminary and College, located on Seminary Hill on the fringe of the city. Dr. Robert C. Woods is president. Many persons will yet have this institution fresh upon their minds because of their keen interest in the city which Seminary's powerful football combination gave Hampton Institute's fine team playing the last season, losing chance for the championship, only on the last day of the season, when the "Seasiders" won their final game and the title. Last term's enrollment of Va. Seminary and College was 460 in- Norfolk Journal and Guide including both soxes. The departments of instruction are college, normal, theological and academic. It has a very strong faculty of twenty-eight, including graduates of Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Michigan, Chicago, Pittsburgh, and similar well known institutions. Student life at Virginia Seminary and College is well rounded. Aside from the regular work of the class room, debating is engaged in under the supervision of Prof. of the English Department, who is a very well known writer. Dramatic work, also under the direction of Prof. Brown, is undertaken by the Theater Guild. Intercollegiate sports are populated at the institution. Besides its five football team, Virginia Seminary and College had a basketball team that finished up with the leaders. It had a fine baseball team, but was unable to schedule many Association games last season. There was no track team and no football team. The squad missed the football title by a close margin, Seminary sent a student, Reid of Philadelphia, to the C. I. A. a tourney and he came back with the singles title. The Virginia Baptist State Convention has a drive on now for a quarter million dollars for current expenses for the institution. Hope was expressed that this amount would be raised for what is a deserving cause. He took the president, who has a keen interest in all things educational, and in all phases of student activity, made the following statement to the Journal and Guide reporter: "Virginia Theological Seminary and College, established in 1888, is the expression of the Negro in his educational interest. In the founding of the institution the over mastering desire, which characterized the movement, is now the same guiding purpose, which then was and now is, to offer a liberal education to both sexes on equal terms. The institution has encouraged and emphasized preparation for leadership by both young men and women hundreds of young men and women have gone forth to enter all of the professions and positions of usefulness that they may creditably and honorably serve their fellowman. "The institution has followed the ideal of expanding the most in building the manhood and womanhood of its student body, believing that the superior investment in the moral and spiritual, rather than in the mere material expansion of the institution. So it has followed the policy of gathering the strongest and best equipped faculty available. At the same time, it has endeavored to collect sufficient physical equipment to do thorough work. Substantial buildings, well equipped laboratories and such other equipment essential to good work have been assembled at a cost of nearly half million dollars, representing the philanthropy and sacrifices of a struggling group. "The ideals of the institution should make a larger appeal to both our group and the friends of the group, thereby warring at ting larger support for so worthy a work." As for the public schools of the city: there is a very modern high school, the Dunbar high school on Polk street. All of the activities usually undertaken by scholastic institutions are taught by our grammar schools are Payne, Yoder, Jackson and the Rivermont school. Graduate Cleans Up Honors There is such a thing as being valedictorian of a class without winning practically every honor and prize. But not so, thought Theodore Tynes (this year's honor graduate of Dunbar high.) At the CITY COURT Humbles Hall, Va. Seminary-College NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JUNE 26, 1926.

Dear Namiol: In every paper that we have received of the Norfolk Journal and Guide I have seen in there where the artist is working. I do that that they are so nicely answered, so I am going to ask you one for myself for the first time and I have to do that. I do that and I have a friend living with me, he is very nice and he treats me very nice and I do that same by him, but someone else is more often made on me than on him, it looks like some one is always asking how much they talk and I don't, but we would like to have prosaic as we are encouraged to be married. I will thank you for advice. I hope to receive an answer. S. A. R. Dear S. A. R. You know folks always would talk and about the very best thing you can do is to be very careful and make sure you give them nothing to talk about and the only way to do that is to be careful and mindful of all your words and actions. After that if they talk you cannot help it, but you will rest secure in the knowledge that it is no fruit of yours and therefore have no cause to worry. Maybe someone who is envious of you and your friend is at the root of all the trouble and when you and your friend really make it they will let you alone, because they may be trying to make him stop now and will not give up until after the marriage, Good luck to you.

I am lonely the most of my time, books and only company I have. It is because I do not fancy the company of sheiks. That 'fapper' boy writes me the letter that I am fund of the description he gave himself. Judging from the letter that I am to write to, I was not reared in Norfolk; but this is my home now. I have a High School education, but have not finished the Norfolk school. I am no Flapper, but said to be nice looking, and I am not a lot of nips. I like to go to the movies now and then and believe in having a good time in a decent amount of luck for you in the future dear Naomi. Lonely C.

(Preston News Service) (Continued from last week) THE WORKING MOTHER I have noticed that women get from men almost as much as they require, or at any rate, just as much as they demand. Our women especially, demand so little of a man that they are generally expected to shift for themselves. It is notoriously true, that a very high-class, good woman, will be satisfied with less of actual service and efficiency in her own husband than she will require in a man that she might hire, for ordinary uses. But thus does "love." Diana, "To Little of Men" We begin this sort of indulgence, long before marriage. In the present custom of general patronage of commerziized amuscements it is the practice of girls even from some of our best families, to arrange to accompany some friend, or group of friends to a dance to which the admission expense is borne by themselves. Once there, the main object of the evening is a good time and numerous dances so the various fellows, who have also come unaccommodation, offer it? Their favors with no responsibility to their girl with whom they dance, except their more presence. When it is time to go home, they each take themselves off at their own convenience, with the exception of perhaps, a few times a season a fellow will see his favorite girl to her home. The girl has gone to the expense of her small outlay; has provided herself with the convenience of transportation, with admission to the dance; with armenian clothing for the day after, face a bill for finery and cosmetics; to face the self-delicacy of necessities to provide or receive for the adventures into the room of pleasure seeking to which body and soul must contribute, just as utrastic, or rather, perhaps perplexes put over a better job for he needs neither for his own transportation nor provides for his own transportation shared the pleasure of a well groomed dancing partner; goes home with the feeling of an encoction the boy has to the bed; may recall the pressure of a girl; if not, another evening; another dance; another girl. One woman may take all the care in the world in training her girl, protecting the advantages of education, or music and contact; of recreation and supervision. But if the woman around the corner should meet her, what becomes of which her boy is subjected—and these two should meet—and marry; what becomes of which her mother is there of improving the standard of living unless the mother of the boy is just an interested in these social aspects of our community life, as the mother of I know of a family who have brought their children into the world in a good home, and on a good street, and has lived there for years. But the street; not satisfied, perhaps, but according to the custom of women since the world began "sticking to her man."

MISS HUMBLES BRIDE OF BISHOP KYLES By P. BERNARD YOUNG Lynchburg, Va., June 16—Two of the most prominent and popular families of Virginia and North Carolina were united in the magnificent wedding of Bishop Linwood Westinghouse Kyles of Winston-Salem, N. C., and Miss Josephine Humbles of this city. In their ceremonial vestments, five bishops stood behind the artistic white satin altar especially prepared for the occasion, and jointly solemnized the union. Dr. W. H. Goler, President Emeritus of Livingstone College, Salisbury, N. C., officiated, and was assisted by Bishops P. A. Wallace, Brooklyn, N.Y.; E. D. W. Jones, Washington, D.C.; E. D. G.

HINES Groceries Dry Goods FRUITS AND SOFT DRINKS Prices Unexcelled Quality Unequaled 2119 Green Street Portsmouth, Virginia Lynchburg, Nestling In The Hills Of Virginia Shows Great Progress (Continued from Page Seven) The June graduates: Howard Nathaniel Christian, Dwitt Duiguid, Gordon Ellis Hemmings jr., James Edward Hubbard, Eugene David Irving jr., David Johnson, Edward Lomax, Roger Williams Lomax jr., Ada Belle - Adams, Rachel Ellen Beaver, Millicent Elizabeth Brown, Louise Carter, Erville Susie Bortham, Lily Cordy Davis, Ruth Elizabeth Faison, Rosa Gertha Glover Jessie Mabe Hix, Florence Hill, Iris Elvira Hix, Lilian Dorronty Lomax, Elizabeth Lewis Long, Lilian Dorronty Pinn, Ruby Alyce Smith, Louise Corrine Terry and Lilian Frances Wells. The church is a generally recognized bulwark in the social structure of a nation. Religiously and culturally, it leads, edifices, and sanctifies. People go to it for strengthening and for thanksgiving. Very often the power of the church in a community is in direct proportion to the moral and ethical status of that community. The Hill City is well supplied with houses of worship, many of them magnificent edifices, all of them exerting Christian effort. Among the leading churches are: Court Street Baptist, Rev. V. N. John, pastor; Diamond Hill Baptist, Rev. Wells, pastor; Eighth Street Baptist, Rev. J. W. Tynes, pastor; Fifth Street Baptist, no regular pastor at present; Rivermont Baptist Church; Jackson Street M. E. Church, Rev Harper, pastor; Presbyterian Church Chapel of Good Shepherds, P. E. Church, Rev. Sommers, rector. Other Organizations Farewell organizations are a great force in Negro life. Among the strong organizations located in Lynchburg are: Elks, Masons, Pythians, Odd Fellows, St. Lukes, and among Greek letter fraternities, Gamma Omega Chapter of Omega Psi Phi, Virginia Seminary and College. While there is no chapter of Alphi Phi Alpha there are several prominent persons in the city members of the Alphi social, art, theology, and missionary groups. The Y. M. C. A., Taylor street, Mr. J. T. Harris, secretary, and the Y. W. C. A., Monroe street, Miss Lucy Stevens, secretary, do good work. Professional Men Here The medical profession is represented here by doctors of tested ability, all of whom have well appointed offices along Fifth street. They are: Drs. J. A. Brown, T. J. Faucett, K. Kettis, J. Ward, and R. W. Lomax. They are graduates of leading medical colleges throughout the United States. There are three very fine dentists in the city, each of whom, in his modern office, treat many patients every day. They are: Drs. H. P. Weston, F. H. Norris jr., and Dr. Jackson. There are at present no Negro lawyers located in the Hill City. There are several dance halls and a cracker-jack orchestra in Lynchburg but no Negro theaters or similar places of amusement. Some of the downtown houses have Negro patrons. Students And Their Schools As far as could be, ascertained Union and Hampton are the popular choices for Lynchburg boys and girls. Howard University graduated J. W. Goldsberry jr., this June from its medical college; P. R. Higginbotham from its medical college; and Miss Clarissa Wimbush from its college of dentistry. Among the Unionites are Samuel Burford, 20 and W. H. Pence, B. S. Pittsburgh next year. Misses Evelyn Humbles, Vivian Flagg, and Gwendolyn Scott are Lynchburg Mamptonians who graduated this June. Work and Concentration of Negro Population A widespread slump in business in general and opportunities for work in particular was reported, but the outlook appeared optimistic to many. There are many large factories here, but no general rule of employment applies. Some employ none of our people, some a few, some many. One gentleman deplored the lack of advancement or variety in work for the masses of his firm. Domestic semi-servile work appeared the chief means of employment for them. What concentration of Negro population there is in general centers itself on Eighth, Taylor, Fifth, Floyd, Pierce, Jackson, Wise, Monroe, and a few other streets. Unlike many cities of Virginia and the South in general, on many of the best streets Negroes and whites live in seeming goodwill. The feeling between the races is not tense. Never any serious trouble. Downlown stores are typical of South—courteous, dis courteous, and in different in store. Your correspondent was informed at a certain bank—there are no Negro banks—that he, the clek, didn't give a hurrah if a certain check was certified, identification was necessary. He was told who to and who not to "hurrah" as a result. The Hill City—in common with other cities has, in conclusion, a Negro population that is awakening to the power of cooperation, of the ballot, and the importance of economic independence. There are signs of the spirit of the new Negro studded here and there among the people, like stars in a dark heaven, and that spirit is the spirit of creative expression, of desire for absolute and complete emancipation in all fields, the spirit of progress. That spirit is a symbol of a new leadership, the symbol of the City of Hills of a few years hence. BLACKSTONE Blackstone, Va.- Rev. Croed Greenhill, associate pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church, delivered a very timely discourse Sunday morning, taken from I Cor. 13:24.

He finished the public schools of this city in 1912 and entered the university. He participated in the fall of the same year. An a student in Petersburg he will always be remembered because of his participation as a member of the Imperial Dramatic Club, the choir, the glee club, the band, which brought so much cheer to the inmates of the prison.

Mr. Oppenheimer told the accused he would be there. "That on the following morning Wednesday, June 9, the accused, instead of being taken to the police court, as she had expected, was brought to this court for trial. That the judge of this court asked her if she had a lawyer to defend her and she told him she had no lawyer, as she did not see Mr. Oppenheimer. "That the accused then pleaded guilty on the three charges against her and was tried by the honorable judge this court, consented given the maximum sentence of ten years in each instance, making a total of 30 years' imprisonment in the State penitentiary." In support of the petition the Times-Dispatch has the following to say: To the Hustings Court: As the petition of H. W. Oppenheimer, attorney-at-law, for permission to reopen the case of Susie Boyd and the determination of Judge Mathews to take the petition under advisement constitute together, a renewed pendency of the case, this newspaper will not place itself in the position of being guilty even of technical contempt—although it has not the slightest fear of proceedings on that count. “But it respectfully asks leave of the Honorable W. Kirk Mathews, Judge of the Hustings Court of the City of Richmond, to join, as amicus curiae', in the petition of H. Oppenheimer, of the Hustings Court, that the case of Susie Boyd be reopened, that she be allowed to plead again and through her counsel, and that she be put on trial before a jury in the Hustings Court. "It is respectfully submitted to the Hustings Court of the City of Richmond that after-discovered circumstances, as well as after-discovered evidence, may well constitute sufficient cause to impel the Court to exercise that sound discretion which ledges in his breast. "It is respectfully submitted that the circumstances in this case which lead the Times-Dispatch to join in the position of Mr. Oppenheimer are these: That the convicted woman was without counsel during the hearing of her case, without fault on the part of her counsel or on her own part; that she was not tried by a jury, as was she questioned by the judge and the Commonwealth's Attorney informed her of her rights, it is gravely doubted if she understood the full meaning of the information thus imparted to her; that if she had been represented by counsel, she, thru him, would have asked for trial by jury; that in all probability the jury, taking into account the accused woman's status in life and lack of education, would have been the judge which would, at the same time, have served the ends of justice. "For these reasons, which, it is alleged, are equivalent to after-discovered, circumstances, t h e Times-Dispatch, as a friend of the court, respectfully asks leave to join in the petition submitted by H. W. Oppenheimer, of the Richmond Bar, that the Honorable Judge of the Hustings Court of the Court of Appeals, of Susie Boyd, and permit Mr. Oppenheimer, as her counsel, to file such a plea as to him may seem fit—Times Dispatch, Richmond, Va. June 15, 1926." A prominent merchant of Richmond went into the office of the Richmond-Planet, after hearing of the Susie Boyd Case, and wanted to know if the colored people intended to let the outrageous 30-year sentence stand without making a protest. He told Editor John Mitchell that he stood ready to assist and give a donation for er relief, when he was assaulted that steps were taken in the assault, he half, h er replied: "You need not be worried over this outrageous miscarriage of justice. I shall take action tomorrow in the case to see to it that this sentence is set aside." He later called up The Planet Office and told Editor Mitchell that counsel had been secured. There was a special provision in the statutes concerning forgery cases and that Judge Mathews could and that Judge Mathews asked to act in court and this killing, in appeal would be made to Governor Harry Flood Byrd for a commutation of the sentence.

The only surviving member of this group are Mr. Tucker and Mr. Jill. In the center of the front front page group, which this group are Mr. Tucker and Mr. Hill. In the center of the front page group, which this group of clusters is clustered is the picture of the new Temple. There are two more articles on the front page, one narrating the death of Thomas Moore, a prominent barber of Petersburg and the other telling of the meeting of the Sans Pariel Social Club of Richmond, in which a Richmond colored minister issues an appeal for votes for the Republican ticket. Editorials Turning to the editorial column of "The Recorder," what space is not devoted to importuring its readers to adhere to the Republican party line in the then approaching election—a t h i n g scarcely necessary, for where could be found the Negro 20 years ago who would commit such an unseemingly aerobic stunt as voting into the Democratic column—is taken up in congratulating the Masons upon the dedication of their new Temple and a comment on Booker T. Washington's, then recent speech, at St. John's A. M. E. Church. Mr. Washington had spoken on the previous Tuesday night and "The Recorder," didn't think so much of his speech. The Norfolk paper thought the Tuskegee principal put too much stress on industrial education and that in the presence of a mixed white and colored audience. In this connection "The Recorder," said: "Mr. Washington will certainly not expect our endorsement on this line. For we are uncompromisingly favorable to WOMEN WANTED M. S. S. From 18 to 50 years ago to learn BEAUTY CULTURE and sell MOTHER CRADLE'S TOILET PRODUCTS. She manufactures the Precious Ointment that makes the hair grow long and luxurious.

CITIES the Negra entering every possible avenue of life and taking his chances along with the other races." The Norfolk paper was expressing the general sentiment among Negroes concerning Booker T. Washington's educational policy at the time. Mr. Bright is also in the personal mention column with the announcement, "Mr. Lemuel Bright has fitted up a most attive sauna and billiard porter on the corner of Queen and Smith street and is doing a pretty fair business." The editors of "The Recorder" evidently experienced some of the same troubles that beset the present-day publishers. Hear this from its musty columns: "We take this opportunity of informing our agents that some of them are way behind in their reposits to this office, and they will greatly oblige to our pulling in a 'feedle,'" "The Recorder" was quite a excellent newspaper for its day. In make-up and general care it appears to have served very well. At present, the particular appeal referred to its yellowed with age but gives splendid insight into the history of the city and its people. It is interesting to note that Dr. Washington was introduced to the audience at St. John's by one Chas. C. Dogan, and spoke here under auspices of the Y. M. C. A., and Old.Folks Home. A. B. C. Sports and Church News Sports and church news had their place in the columns of "The Recorder." The big evert in sports at that time was the approaching football game between the Columbia Athletic Club of Norfolk and the Hampton eleven. The appeal was for a big attendance at the game. Queen Street Baptist Church, with Rev. J. B. K. Butler, as pastor, is mentioned, and so are the First Baptist, with Rev. R. H. Bowling sr.; Shiloh Baptist, with Rev. E. W. Merchant; Bank St. with Rev. H. M. Mitchell; Old Emanuel, Portsmouth, with Rev. A. L. Gaines; Ebenezer, Portsmouth, with Rev. J. W. Kjeldt; Race P. E., with Rev. W. K. Gaines. In general news, a meeting of the Precious Freedom hall at Willis' Hall on Queen Street the previous Wedn:sday evening, is noted. Among those attending that meeting were Fred N. Carter, James N. Brown, James M. Harrison, A. S. Pinner, W. H. Selden, Joseph H. Hall, J. Adams, James Hartis and A. J. Banks. "I heard great praise of Exelento Quinine Pomade everywhere," she writes, "and I love my beautiful hair and healthy scalp to its unfailing hair. Everywhere I go my hair is sure to be remarked upon for its lustre and softness." Coming to the advertisements, "The Recorder," of this particular date carried a fair proportion. One of the biggest ads was of the first Negro insurance company organized in this city, The Tidewater Bereficiel Association. James P. Carter was the president of this company, while the remaining officers were, William E. Carter, secretary; John L. Gibbs, vice president; A. B. Campbell, treasurer; B. R. Boulding, general manager.

Y., June 21.—The New England Baptist Missionary Convention closed its fifty-second annual meeting in this city Sunday, the reports showing marked achievements by the convention during the past year. Among the substantial results of the year were the purchase of the Christian Review, a weekly nominal paper of wide circulation, the raising of thousands of dollars for Christian education, putting Northern University beyond the financial danger line and enlarging its territory to include the larger part of Virginia and the whole state of President J. C. Jackson, presided over the principal sessions. Addresses of welcome were extended to the convention by Dr. Dwelle, Dracon A. R. Gaines, of Union Baptist Church, Revs H, D. Tillman and C. H. Freeman. The response was made by Dr. W. P. Hayes, of New York. These preliminaries were presided over by the Rev. Dr. Taylor, of Washington, D. C. The annual sermon was delivered by the Rev. Dr. W. W. Carof of Massachusetts. President Jackson in his annual address spoke of the possibilities of the New England Convention to do big things for the kingdom within its territory and to make mule provision for the religious education of its youth. The other outstanding sermons and addresses of the session were: Doctrinal sermon by the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, of New York; "The Business Outlook of the Race," by Mr. Watt Terry, of Brocton, Mass, and New York; "The Challenge of Christ to this Age," by Rev. Dr. W. B. W. Brown, of New York; the missionary sermon by Rev. H. G. Pope, of Pennsylvania, and the address by Prof. Hancock, of Virginia Union University, subject: "The Religious Educational Task of the Church."

Rev. White took his text from Jeremiah 29:13. It reads as follows: "And ye shall seek me and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." His introduction consisted of a very touching expression of his and his wife's deep appreciation of the many experiences and cooperation they have received from his congregation and the people of Norfolk during the years of their labors here, and their regret for having to leave the many friends made in the course of the year. He then launched into a lucid and effective exposition and application of the text, which proved to be a searching message for all present.

On Wednesday night the Congress was welcomed to the city by Gov. Thomas McLead at the Columbia Theatre where the public session was held. Other welcome addresses were delivered by the Mayor L. B. Owens, of Columbia, and several white and colored ministers and prominent persons on behalf of various lacol groups and organizations. One of the features of the Congress was the mammoth parade which was staged on the arrival of the "Congress Special" to the city Wednesday. The "Congress Special" arrived an hour earlier than was expected, the committee had hold the great march until the head and other organizations which h a roused welcome could get there. This could not be done, the delegates contended that because of traveling over 1000 miles they wished to go to their places and refresh themselves. It took most of the transportation facilities of Columbia to remove the huge crowds. Order Out Of Confusion Dr. Henry Allen Boyd, secretary of the Congress, said that the parade must be carried through. Then it was that Rev. R. C. Storer, manager of parade activities, threw in linz: the Orphanage Band of Charleson, S. C., this followed by 200 cadets dressed in white juniors, behind the 500 campfire girls arrayed in white dresses, in big 500-voie Corporals chorus men and women followed by the band from Nashville. Then, came scores of decorated automobiles and trucks bearing Sunday school children. It was a sight to behold.

The parade moved up South Main, passed the Statehouse Park, thence up North Main, on Taylor cast out to Benedict College.

Dr. Henry Allen Boyd, then after a few brief announcements introduced Dr. J. P. Robinson, of Little Rock, Ark., the chairman, and from that hour on through Sunday the National Baptist Sunday School Congress was a beehive of religious activities, and campfire girls gave many yells to the leaders of the Congress.

Detroit, Mirn—Miss Thelma Bagnall, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Robert Bagnall, was presented in recital by Prof. Otto Strumer, Monday evening, at Bach Hall. Although Miss Bagnall figured in a serious automobile accident while on her way to the hall, few knew anything of it till the recital was ended. The vehicle upset and was demolished, but except for a shaking up, no one was seriously injured. Miss Bagnall's rendition of such classics as Mendelssohn's Cappiccio Brilliance and other difficult selections left nothing to be desired. She was the recipient of many beautiful floral tributes. Last year Miss Bagnall completed the teachers' course at the Toleda Conservatory of Music and Fine Arts, and this year, the collegiate course. Rev. Robt. Bagnall, her father, is rector of All Saints Episcopal Church in this city.

New York, June 24—The National Legal Committee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has held a meeting to discuss further steps in the segregation fight, following the U. S. Supreme Court's decision in the Curtis Segregation Case in Washington, D. C.

Cobb, of Washington, Herbert K. Stockton and James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the N. A. A. C.

THE STATE OF NEW YORK UNITED STATES OF AMERICA "THE MEANEST TRAITOR IN THE OLD TESTAMENT" A GREATER RESPECT FOR WOMANHOOD IS URGED BY DR. WALKER C. A large and appreciative audience gathered at St. John's A. M. E. Church, Tuesday evening, to listen to an instructive and practical lecture delivered by Rev. K. H. Walker, nationally known evangelist and pulpit orator on the subject of "A Woman's Place and Power." Throughout the lecture, Rev. Walker held his heavens in rapture and called the faithful the same face factored with his theme or giving humorous descriptions of conditions which obtain among the race. Woman was dealt with in her newly concompeted condition as the fit companion of man. Rev. Walker deplored the present day treatment recorded the women of the race by its young men, and declared that a race that does not recognize the great and fundamental principle of the proper respect for the women of that race will surely have a slim chance of rising from the bottom round of the human ladder. While admitting that the moral status of its women, the speaker impressed upon his heavens that it is up to the men to use every effort to encourage and protect woman in her longings for reaching and maintaining a higher moral plane of living. Interesting statistics were given out by Rev. Walker as to the potential power and energy possessed by the race for accomplishing much along lines of economic enterprise. This should be done, he declared, if we are to give our young men and women something to do after they have graduated from the many high schools and colleges which they are now attending. A people who have within a comparatively short period of time of free activity built forty thousand ordained ministers, with five millions of church communicants, and with one hundred million invested in church property, certainly show ability for organization and can organize. Why not turn some of this great power into economic enterprises that will give our young women something to do and prevent them from falling into devious ways, to then, he continued. If we want them educated, to provide for them, that they may be enabled to use the talents thus acquired. For why should they be educated unless they are going to make use of that education? It is sad to be educated with nothing to do and worse with no prospect ahead into which that education may be made to fit. The topic of the relation of the professional members of the race to the masses was next discussed. Rev. Walker declared that those of professional attainments remained too far away from the common mass of the Negro race and said that this was a frequent cause of the lack of confidence in the Leadership of the race and of the patronizing of Negro enterprise on the part of the laboring classes. He compared this condition within the race to that of the white race, where the latter race seems bent on the business of helping every number of that race regardless of their condition. At the conclusion of the lecture those present went away feeling that they had heard a strong and helpful presentation of truths respecting the welfare of the race. By request, Rev. Walker will repeat this lecture at Rev. O. C. Jones' church, Monday night, in M. Herman. IARIEUSS The Lyceum Principal Convicted George Ducrest, the colored man who is alleged to have killed John Carroll, white prizefighter; during a street fight in Caretret, New Jersey, the consequence being the burning of a Negro church and the driving out of town of 100 colored people, has been convicted of second degree murder and sentenced to from 18 to 30 years in prison. A masterly defense of Ducrest by Attorney William J. Brandon of Newark, who volunteered his services, saved him from execution in the electric chair.

Not Typical of Virginia Courts The case of Susie Boyd, the Richmond colored woman who was given a sentence of thirty years on charges of forgery by evolving the theft of $185 has attract state-wide attention. The fact that a woman was so severely penalized after plea of guilty and when not represented by counsel makes her case all the more noticeable. Forgery is, of course, a very serious offense, and should be met with severe punishment, but as every one knows, many persons accused and convicted of more serious offenses do not receive the sort of punishment that was handed out to this woman. It is only fair to say that Susie Boyd's case is not typical of the functioning of Virginia courts. Justice is often tempered mercy, more often than not, in dealing with such unfortunate cases. The fact that at the same day, in another Richmond courts white woman adjudged guilty of the offence amounting to $15,000 was given a suspension of two years, accentuated the severity of the punishment given the color woman, and made it appear like a great miscarriage of justice upon the one hand and excessive leniency on the other, due to the racial identity of the two accused women. It is also important to note that certain white people of Richmond, are backing the press of that city in asking that Susie Boyd's case be reopened. The case of Susie Boyd, the Richmond colored woman who was given a sentence of thirty years on charges of forgery involving the theft of $185 has attracted state-wide attention. The fact that the woman was so severely penalized after a plea of guilty and when not represented by counsel makes her case all the more noticeable. Forgery is, of course, a very serious offense, and should be met with severe punishment, but as every one knows, many persons accused and convicted of more serious offenses do not receive the sort of punishment that was handed out to this woman. It is only fair to say that Susie Boyd's case is not typical of the functioning of Virginia courts. Justice is often tempered with mercy, more often than not, in dealing with such unfortunate cases. The fact that on the same day, in another Richmond court, a white woman adjudged guilty of thefts amounting to $1,500 was given, a suspended sentence of two years, accentuated the severity of the punishment given the colored woman, and made it appear like a gross miscarriage of justice upon the one hand and excessive lenency on the other, due to the racial identity of the two accused women. It is also important to note that certain white people of Richmond, are backing up the press of that city in asking that Susie Boyd's case be reopened. Conquering Nature Since man's beginning he has waged an increasing battle to subject nature to his will and wish. Though the battle has now waged for thousands of years, nature is still the master of man. Since man's beginning he has waged an unceasing battle to subject nature to his will and wish. Though the battle has not waged for thousands of years, nature is still the master of man.

Victory is not yet in sight for man but his advance, though slow, is unchecked. Nature may never be entirely under the control of man, who is actually a part of nature, but her many elements are being subdued one by one. Man's greatest struggle with nature has been the prolongation of human life, a thing over which nature for ages held complete and uncontested sway. Science, medicine, education and sanitation as conceived by the genius of the human mind, are successfully driving back the forces of nature toward the lengthening of the average span of life. On the basis of the progress made in the past three decades toward the prolongation of human life we can hope to have an average life span of three-quarters of a century within the next 30 years. The automobile, the railroad, the airship, the telegraph and the radio are exemplifications of man's conquest of nature. Astronomy and archaeology—man's science—have brought within his ken the universe and the past. Anything man can think of he can do if he works at it long enough. We have abolished the plagues and devastating epidemics of our early history and we shall abolish the diseases which take their toll of human lives today. Nature is surrendering to man inch by inch and is making man greater for the struggle. When the time comes—if it should—when man no longer has to struggle for supremacy the decay of the human mind will be swift and sure. Ordinary rules of sanitation in the home and by municipalities are saving the lives of thousands of Americans annually and making virulent epidemics almost unheard of. How many people a few years ago knew that malaria germs were spread by the mosquito and that many disease germs were carried broadcast by the common housefly? No greater in number than these were those who realized the efficacy of screens, covered gar- buge cans, clean yards and the elimination of stagnant water in exterminating the mosquito and the fly. A fly in the house is a sign of careless housekeeping in this era of swat-the-fly. It is only in the poorest tenement districts and the squalid homes of the mountaineer that the housefly is still given free reign to taint food and carry disease germs from person to person. Neither is the mosquito permitted to inject his malaria germs into the veins of every sleeping human. To successfully combat the fly and the mosquito the campaign should be launched early in the year. The municipal spring clean-up was designed to rid the house-yard of the winter's accumulation of debris so these fly and mosquito breeding places would not be present when the breeding time arrived. The careful housewife also repairs and installs her window and door screens before the spring debut of the fly and mosquito. But the battle against summer's pestiferous conveyors of disease must not stop with preventatives. Debris must not be permitted to accumulate, garbage cans must be closed tightly at all times and screens must be kept tightly closed and carefully repaired. And the fly swatter must be kept in daily use. "Medical Education For Negroes" In the Forum this week, printed elsewhere on this page Dr. Wilbur A. Draughn lineates the rather serious condition which fronts the Afro-American students in medicine. What is true of medicine is a cause of many other professions and vocations, and calls for serious consideration and constructive action. In almost every city in the United States, particularly in the Eastern and Southern sections, there are successful and proactive Afro-American physicians. Many of them are wealthy in a moderate way, and many of them have sons whom they want to succeed them in the practice of medicine where are also numerous pharmacists and scientists who have graduated from Howard Medical College who have achieved success in a professional and economic way. A more ordinary example would be set if these men would underwrite without delay the $50,000 which Howard Medical College maintains its standing as a class "A" institute. The medical men could afford to meet the emergency as a matter of interest if no higher motive actuated them to take lead in preserving to themselves and their descendants the privilege of practicing medicine. If they take the lead in setting Howard, Afro-Americans as a group would adoubtedly be to their assistance in helping other institutions, and in building and maintaining the hospitals that are needed in Virginia and elsewhere to permit the system of medical education to comply with the demands of the various state boards of examiners. It is unquestionably true that Afro-Americans have got to meet and solve most their problems out of their own resources, much money is being donated for race educational institutions, but these benefaction does not as a general rule include the schools which train physicians, lawyers and more other specialized vocations outside the realm of common education. The states are appropriate no money for such schools. Obviously the race needs physicians, but the states and the high benefactors are not willing to it. The race itself must surely be the need until it is universally recognized and supplied. In the Forum this week, printed elsewhere on this page Dr. Wilbur A. Drake outlines the rather serious condition which confronts the Afro-American students of medicine. What is true of medicine is also true of many other professions and vocations, and calls for serious consideration and constructive action. In almost every city in the United States, particularly in the Eastern and Southeastern sections, there are successful and prosperous Afro-American physicians. Many of them are wealthy in a moderate way, and many of them have sons whom they want to succeed them in the practice of medicine. There are also numerous pharmacists and dentists who have graduated from Howard Medical College who have achieved success in a professional and economic way. A most salutary example would be set if these men would underwrite without delay the $50,000 which Howard Medical College needs to maintain its standing as a class "A" institution. The medical men could afford to meet the emergency as a matter of self-interest if no higher motive actuated them. Certainly the public looks to them to take the lead in preserving to themselves and their descendants the privilege of practicing medicine. If they take the lead in saving Howard, Afro-Americans as a group will undoubtedly come to their assistance in saving other institutions, and in building and maintaining the hospitals that are needed in Virginia and elsewhere to perfect the system of medical education required to comply with the demands of the various state boards of examiners. It is unquestionably true that Afro-Americans have got to meet and solve more of their problems out of their own resources. Much money is being donated for race educational institutions, but these benefits do not as a general rule include the schools which train physicians, lawyers and men for other specialized vocations outside the realm of common education. The states appropriate no money for such schools. Obviously the race needs physicians, but the states and the high benefactors are not yet convinced of it. The race itself must supply the need until it is universally recognized and supplied. Howard's New President There is general gratification among the three at the election of Bishop John A. Greene be President of Howard University. He not only prepared by education and experience to make a success of a difficult work but he is said to be a man of magnet personality and social charm. He ought to take the ideal president of our most out There is general gratification among the race at the election of Bishop John A. Gregg to be President of Howard University. He is not only prepared by education and experience to make a success of a difficult work but he is said to be a man of magnetic personality and social charm. He ought to make the ideal president of our most outstanding school of light and leading. The fact that he is the first man of our group to be elected to the presidency of Howard is significant of the change of opinion which has come over the trustee board of the school which has hitherto set its face as a flint against the election of an Afro-American as president, although there has for many years been a loud demand for such. We do not underestimate the good work of the white presidents of our schools since the war. Many of them have been great and good men, entirely devoted to the work and to the welfare of the student bodies. But the position of white presidents has constantly been growing more difficult because of the attitude of the white people in the states where such schools exist and who do not think that the white presidents and professors should place themselves on equality with their students and off-color members of their faculties, and the disposition to cater to this sentiment and to draw the color line in these our own schools has been the provocation of the growing troubles we have been having of late years. Again, naturally, our young graduates have the notion that no positions in our schools should be closed against them. When a bar is set up, as in our army and navy, and as it has been in our schools since the Civil War, they naturally feel that it reflects upon them as well as upon the race, and the general disposition has grown from year to year to protest against and resist the discrimination. We have plenty of men and women qualified to fill all of the positions in our institutions of learning, and these people require a fair field and no favor for the exercise of their talents. They do not get it in the white schools and they should not be denied it in their own. In the breakdown of the color bar at Howard University a very great and good work has been accomplished. Norfolk Journal and Guide THE GUIDE POST By RICHARD H. BOWLING THE GUIDE POST By RICHARD H. BOWLING The Graduate's Future Hundreds of young men and women, boys and girls, have graduated this spring.

And now about those half humorous class prophecies, which found in each of a hundred senior groups the predestined successor of every present day successful personage. Now seriously, what about the actual nature of these thousands of young people? Note these facts to begin with: The present generation that supplies parents for homes, directors for business enterprises, workers in the professions, and, alas, criminals, and inmates of prisons and insane asylums, this generation is dying out. Only a few more years and it will be gathered to its fathers, but will homes be no more, or business institutions, or jails and criminal classes? If these institutions and human groups are to continue, then by whom will they be manned and of whom will they consist? Not the dead. But the present generation of graduates. Yes, some of these now graduating, physicians and lawyers, nurses and chemical engineers, teachers and construction contractors, will be behind prison bars, or, worse still, will be unconvinced objects of nothing to decent people. A majority, however, will be filling places of responsibility and honor. Let no one become pessimistic about our present day graduates. I have looked into the upturned successors of upwards of three hundred this year in five different institutions. It was in inspiration. One's own generation had made many mistakes, marred terribly its record, sinned before God and before man. Here was an oncoming generation, hopes dimmed, reputations unsullied, preparation that would profit by our mistakes, build our foundations, a fititter instrument for the use of kind Omnipotence. How could respond? How could anyone? But in the case of the individual graduate, is he certain of the glory that shall be the majority of his fellows? Only in proportion as his past and present make him merit it. On the average, one's future will like his past unless there be some such imacult change as that of conversion or notification. The "regular fellow" theological student will become the ministerial awalag, who ever and anon disgraces aly calling. The student who finds it necessary to deal in bootlegging and "hot stuff" order to get through school will most probably find that it takes that to keep such man going in ordinary life. The "wise" girl who lived on the outer edge of decency get a thrill out of college life will either be to cease the search for thrills or still sing her good name on a thread. But the neat, conscientious student need have no fear. The same hard work, sacrifice and felicity to ideals which have brought him as far will win him high places of honor and power in the coming years.

From Washington Post In its dealings with Haiti the United States is under peculiar obligations of good faith. The people of Haiti are entitled to their country, every inch of it, and to govern it themselves. Whenever they can do this successfully it will be the duty of the United States to withdraw without assessing against the Haitians any trumped-up expense charges or exacting from them any abatement of their sovereignty. The record of the United States in this respect in dealing with Cuba and Santo Domingo is beyond reproach. It must be equally clean with respect to Haiti. So long as there are Haitians possessing the patriotism and capacity of Louis Borno there is hope that the intervention period will be curtailed, with every assurance that the country will guard its independence, preserve order and conserve its prosperity.

We Entertain a Visitor From Virginian-Pilot The President of Haiti arrived in Washington a few days ago. He was met at the station by Secretary Kellogg and other representatives of the Government. He was escorted to a hotel where he now occupies the presidential suite. He went to call on President Coolidge and the call was returned. He was entertained at a White House luncheon and shown every courtesy usually accorded the head of a friendly foreign government. Those who read of his reception and entertainment might easily conclude that he is an important personage and occupies a position of power and influence at home. But such is not the case. President Louis Borno is nominally the head of the Haitian government, but the real head is an American High Commissioner who reports to the Navy Department and is wholly amenable to the orders of the Coolidge administration. Haiti has been occupied by United States Marines for years. Its finances are administered under the direction of a financial adviser selected in this country and its laws are suggested largely on American initiative.

The publishers do not accept responsibility for the views expressed. Editor, Journal and Guide: Last week the State Board of Medical Examiners for the state of Virginia convened in Richmond for the examination of applicants to practice medicine and surgery and required the applicants for the examination, of this number there was only one colored applicant. WHY? Before matriculating at a medical school the prospective medical student must complete a two-year college or university. There are certain rules and regulations governing these colleges and they require that the college measure up to a certain fixed standard. After finishing the course at the accredited college the student must take four years of medical education at "A" Medical College. The rating of these approved colleges is fixed by a National Board of the American Medical Association known as the Council on Medical Education. After completing the four years of medical education at "A" Medical College, the requirement of the United States, require that the medical graduate must take at least one year internship at a recognized hospital. A recognized hospital is one that has at least one hundred beds, a regulated hospital, a regulated gynecologists and the required laboratories—such as X-ray, bacteriology, pathology, etc. There are at present only two schools (Medical) for colored students meeting the necessary requirements, and one of them (Howard) has a slide hammer that rests on a floor. Howard must meet certain conditions by June the 30th this year or be dropped back in the "B" class. There are now only accommodations in qualified hospitals for Negro young men and women for thirty-five Internes a year. At present there is not a hospital in Virginia qualified to graduate Nurses in the state. Howard must some recognized hospital in order that these pupil nurses may take the examination before the Nurses Examining board of this state, and the circumstances, it means that unless some active steps are taken by the Negroes themselves in the next generation Negro doctors will pass out. For it must be remembered that the leading Medical school of this section of the state admits only students duly admitted only admits a two year and these two are denied the right of practical gynecology and obstetrics. That is, as a large number of charity patients are examined by them, a student is barred from examining them. WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT? The fellow who is out and practicing medicine seems to feel that he is alright, why worry? This is not the feeling of a large number of doctors. They see what those requirements and conditions are in an interview of the profession of medicine SHALL NOT die when they cross the river Styx. There is no reason why Virginia should not build and maintain at least two or three hospitals to meet the requirements of the profession. And the physicians who are desirably and even anxious that their profession shall live after them have decided to use every ounce of their information to help the public to this grave situation. If we do nothing it will mean that in a short time other avenues now open to the race will be closed. Mr. Kelly Miller, Jr., representing the Howard Endowment fund said the other members of the Society that up to that time nearly Fifty Thousand Dollars were needed to complete the fund. An SOS should be sent to every church and to all the colored people of the U. S. to see that Howard remained in the $^{A2}$ Class of medical The Race cannot afford to take a backward step along any line. And we MUST attempt to measure up to the requirements laid down or GO DOWN. SHALL WE GO DOWN? BY neglect of so important a situation that it is incapable of keeping up with the march of progress? The facts are as they are here stated. The writer is well aware of prejudice and all the other unfortunate conditions that arise from the practice of petty jealousies existing in the medical profession itself. He knows that the people are not fully cognizant of our situation. He is well aware of the prejudice that exists between the patient and realists that out of the great number of the profession the few who are trying to fight for the future doctor a character with which they are difficult to face. The latter writer is far broader than the profession; it takes in the whole Negro race. It is not a professional responsibility, only in so far as to arouse public sentiment and affect the profession. It affects the race. There is no quarrel with any one of those who brought about this situation nor with those of the profession who are not exerting prejudice. This is a matter of life or death to the future of Negro in medicine, Shall ALL of us sit idly by and lose out. It will require much sacrifice, but what is required is to let us foreign personalities, jealousies and whatever else may be in the way and see only a trying condition confronting us and quit ourselves like MEN and go to it with all our force and win. Personally I don't care where they build in Norfolk nor who shall head or control the hospital so long as Norfolk and other Virginia cities give us an accredited hospital by certification be able to take the required practical training to qualify to practice: medicine and surgery in this state. there is an carnest cry from all over there in state for more colored doctors.

FOR YOU RICHMOND COURTS WHITE WOMAN CONVICTED OF $15,000 THEFT COLORED WOMAN CONVICTED OF $185,000 THEFT A Significant Step in the Higher Education of the Negro By KELLY MILLEP The trustees of Howard University have elected a colored president to this well known national Negro institution of higher learning. The choice has fallen upon Bishop J. A. Gregg of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, now stationed in South Africa. ```markdown ``` who is widely reputed as a man of piety and wisdom. Howard University was founded by General O. O. Howard in 1867, and chartered by Congress as a university for the education of youth in the liberal arts and sciences. From its foundation down to the present time it has been under white presidents with the exception of two years when the Honorable John M. Langston served as acting president. The present change in the raciality of the headship of this institution is the result of deliberate policy and indicates the most significant stop in Negro education since its inception two generations ago. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, Chairman of the Committee of the Trustee Board, charged with this choice, was thoroughly convinced of the practical wisdom of the new policy. It is believed that it is best that the intimate, internal management should be brought in closer sympathy with the social sensibilities of its constituency and that through the force of exalted example its appeal may be more persuasive to the ambition and aspiration of Negro youth. The Board of Trustees is composed of 24 members, divided between the races in the proportion of two to one in favor of the whites. The faculty is about equally divided by the color line. There is no contemplated change in this respect either in the faculty or the governing board. Howard University has been receiving appropriations from Congress since 1879. During the past 47 years the total government appropriation has amounted to more than $4,000,000. The government would search in vain for any like sum that has resulted in greater national value and advantage. The justification of this governmental provision rests upon the claim of the Negro race for fair educational consideration at the hands of the federal government. It is not merely based upon a vague, undefinable feeling that somehow the government owes the Negro an unpaid debt of gratitude. In fact, if not in law, colored youths are effectively excluded from prizes supported by the federal government. The grant to Howard University is but a moral. Dr. Kelly Miller sounds a call for national cooperation from the race with Bishop Gregg's administration at Howard University. This is the time, says Dr. Miller, for rival claimants for the distinguished honor to lay aside their disappointed ambitions and look with enthusiasm cooperation to ward making Howard University the great commanding institution of learning which it is easily calculated to be. Dr. Miller does not entertain doubts as to Howard experiencing new difficulties in securing necessary Federal approprations because of the institution having a Negro headship. In fact, he is inclined to the belief that a tactful and high calibre Negro president of Howard, such as he believes Bishop Gregg to be might obtain even larger approprations. though not legal offset to this exclusion. Negro colleges and universities are in the main supported by private philanthropists, but Howard University for the past 40 years has benefited very little from such sources. Its maintenance has been all but wholly by federal grants and tuition from the student body. Some fear was expressed that great risk would be incurred by a colored president charged with responsibility of securing these annual grants from Congress; but the final counsel prevailed that a Negro of the right type and temperament might be even more persuasive than a white man in presenting the cause of his race before the lawmakers of the land. Negro presidents of land-grant colleges have been remarkably successful in provision for their institutions. Several of these schools have secured from a single state legislatures to make adequate provision for their institutions. Several of these schools have secured from a single state legislatures to make adequate provision for their institutions. Private institutions under Negro management have not suffered by way of securing public support. The Dukes of North Carolina have given over $2,000,000 to three Negro colleges all of which are under Negro presidents. On general principles it might be taken for granted that any people can advocate their own cause more persuasively than anyone alien to their situation and circumstances is likely to do for them. The Negro owes an undying gratitude to the white race for furnishing leadership and wise guidance at the time when they were not prepared to direct their own way, but now that their facilities have been developed, intimate leadership will normally fall within the circle of those to be led. Negro schools and colleges are generally beginning to substitute Negro for white headship. All state colleges have Negro presidents under the general policy of the South which believes that the race should handle its own intimate affairs as the justifiable policy of social separation. The great religious denominations which have fostered the education of the Negro are making such changes as rapidly as racial progress seems to justify. The time may not be ripe for a wholesale shift of the headships of Negro colleges. Due regard must be had for time, place, circumstances and conditions, but as a general principle universally recognized, the whites must decrease, the Negroes increase. This shift at Howard University imposes very heavy responsibilities upon the president, faculty and alumni. The institution must continue to be managed not only with equal, but greater efficiency than hiltoret. The morale, discipline, standards and methods of work must be kept in closer articulation with the approved methods of management and tuition in the best regulated American colleges. It is to be hoped that Negro management of "the cap-stone of Negro education" will result in larger federal appropriation and also in more persuasive appeal to the philanthropic generosity of the nation. Rival aspirants and claimants for this distinguished honor must lay aside their disappointed ambitions and look with enthusiastic cooperation toward making Howard University the great commanding institution of higher learning which it is easily calculated to be. Already the interest of the Negro race has become keen and expectant, while the attitude of the whites is curious and quizzical. Howard University now enters upon a new career. The opportunity for educational statesmanship is superlative. The entire race must now rally about the standards of their national university. The day of the greater Howard has arrived. Shop Window Gives Display Of Negro Literature The entire window of one of the most important bookships in New York, Brentano's, at 27th Street and Fifth Avenue, has been given over during this week to a showing of books by Negro authors and on Negro song and literature. Among the books so shown are "Mellows"; "Color" by Conte Cullen; "Blues" by W. C. Handy; "The Book of American Negro Spirituals" and "The New Negro." Ireland was originally called Hibernia, a name said to be derived from a Phoenician work meaning "furthest habitation."
