Asbury Is Still Living It was erroneously stated in this newspaper last week in the story the old Norfolk newspaper that C. Asbury, who was among one who officiated at the dedication of the Masonic Temple on Brambleton avenue in 1896 is now dead. The Journal and Guide is pleased inform its readers that Mr. Asbury is very much alive and is living in Philadelphia, where he active in politics and civic welfare. The error was made by one of the younger staff writers, whose does not go back near so as 1896 and it was detected by others of the staff too late to make the correction in that issue. A number of our readers detected the error at once and have used deliberate time, ink and paper, our attention to it. We may make the correction.

WILLIAMS Throughout the two-day ordal of a trial for his life on a charge of murder in connection with the death of his wife, John Tynes, displayed iron nerve. He was as emotionless as a sphynx most of the time and testified on his own behalf with remarkable self possession. Cross examination of Commonwealth Attorney failed to rattle Tynes. A verdict of second degree murder and a penalty fixed at eight degree murred at eight years in the penitentiary was the culmination of the trial of the Tynes charged with the responsibility for the death of his wife, Mrs. Lenora Tynes, which began in Carnegie Court No. 1 years in the penitentiary was the culmination of the trial of Dr. Tynes charged with the responsibility for the death of his wife, Mrs. Lenora Tynes, which began in Corporation Court No.1, before Judge W. S. Sargent Monday morning and continued two whole days and part of two nights. The case went to the jury shortly after seven o'clock Tuesday night and the verdict was returned two hours later. the Tynes family and the peculiar circumstances connected with the death of Mrs. Tynes served to create wide-spread interest in the case, which was reflected in the tremendous crowds that attended the trial. Following the reading of the verdict the defense motioned for a new trial. Verdict Welcomed The end of the trial brought relief to the crowded courtroom of weary spectators and witnesses, who packed every inch of available space in the none too large and ancient enclosure, hung perilously upon window ledges and inched, on and on almost into the very midst of the solemn proceedings. and witnesses, who packed overeight of available space in the none too large and ancient inclosure, hung perilously upon window ledges and inched, on and on almost into the very midst of the solemn proceedings. So dense was the Mrs. TYNES crowd and so tense the moments of the legal battle that was raging around the life of the accused that time and again court attaches were forced to clear the aisles and push back the crowd which little by little encroached upon the space reserved for the principals in the drama. The trial was long drawn out—it goes on record as having been the longest heard in the criminal courts in this city for the past half-dozen or more years, having gone until 11 o'clock Monday night and nearly as late Tuesday night—but the crowd was there to see it through and hung on through the hours. Even the there were frequent wrangling and verbal clashes of opposing attorneys, often long and technical proceedings, there were no monotonous hours—the trial was fraught with dramatic moments. Mrs. Tynes Death Mrs. Lenora Tynes, 36, died on the night of May 6 last, about 11:30 o'clock from a dislocation of the neck, or a bullet wound piercing her aorta or from both. The Commonwealth charged that her husband John L. Tynes, was responsible for these mortal wounds. Husband and wife lived with their three children in their beautiful bungalow at 2422 Middle street. The family was widely known, the father being timekeeper for the Virginia Railway Company at the Sewell's Point coalfield. Both were regular communicants at one of the local churches and were regarded as a highly respectable family. Mrs. Tynes' death occurred a few minutes after a alleged altercation with her husband on the front porch of their home. Testifying in his own behalf, Tynes denied responsibility for his wife's death. He claimed to have no knowledge of how she came by the wounds which brought her end. He told the jury, upon answer to questions of his counsel, Ernest Merrill, that he was 37 years of age and had been married since (Continued on Page Six).

In 17th Annual Meeting Launches Drives For Funds To Remove un-American Handicaps. NATION-WIDE CALL TO BE BROADCAST (Special Correspondence) Chicago, June 28—A million dollar fund to fight segregation, Jim Crow and disfranchisement, "the last vestiges of slavery," was launched yesterday afternoon in the Auditorium Theatre at a mass meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, now holding its 17th Annual Conference here. The fund was launched during an address by the Secretary of the Association, James Weldon Johnson, York, ex-U. S. Corsair for Nicaragua and Venezuela, writer, and editor of compilations of Negro poetry and spirituals. "The American Negroes need and what we propose to begin raising now," declared Mr. Johnson, "is a fund of money to aid the Negroes in Venezuela, which the Negro intends to use and will serve native upon the country of the Negro determination to secure and maintain every funeral with the money and canvass other Americans. "It is possible and feasible for American Negroes to receive a legal Deed to be his in common with other Americans. The demonstration was recently given in the quick raising of a legal Deed to be his in common with other Americans. "The American Negroes no asks allowances, for what may be his shortcomings or his injuries. But he has rights: poverty-striken white men have rights; and even if they have rights, they have responsibilities to them regardless of their condition. We intend to see that unhappily circumvented guarantees and opportunities as unhappily circumvented white Americans. JUSTICE SPINDLE HEARSARGUMENT ON SEGREGATION Warrant Is Issued Against Colored Family That Moves Into So-Called White Residential District. The constitutionality of Norfolk's residential segregation ordinance again came before the local courts Wednesday morning when Samuel Costen, who recently moved into a house at the corner of Mapleton and Majestic avenues, gave a hearing before Police Justice Spindle on a warrant sworn out against him on complaint of whites in the neighborhood who objected to Costen's living near them. Justice Spindle took the case under advisement, informing the attorneys in the case that they may file briefs and setting July 15, as the date for the next hearing. Attorneys in the Case Attorneys in the Case John B. Jenkins and J. Louis Broudy argued the case on behalf of the city, while David H. Edwards appeared for the defendant. Mr. Jenkins and Mr. Edwards cited various authorities. Mr. Jenkins contended that the Norfolk ordinance is different in some essentials from the Louisville ordinance, declared unconstitutional by the United States Supreme Court in 1917, and said it was an exact duplicate of the New Orleans ordinance, recently held constitutional by the Supreme Court of Louisiana. The law for the city contended that the code does not affect property rights in that there is no provision in it prohibiting a colored man from owning property in a white village and vice versa, as did the Louisville ordinance, did in *Page Five*. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JULY 3, 1926 Loses Life Over A $2.00 Watch An argument over a waltch valued at $2 is said to have caused the death of Charlie Fauce, 226 Baltimore street, Titustown, who was shot down Sunday by a man said to be named Miles Jones. Jones escaped after the shooting and was arrested as an accessory after it was alleged that he threw the gun away. Detectives Nowitzy, Adams d's, Spencer with Patrolman Goldstein rushed to the scene of the killing but could find no trace of Jones. Officer Goldstein, who arrived a few minutes after the shooting said the man died almost instantly. BISHOP GREGG TELLS WHY HE DECLINED POST BY LOUIS R. LAUTIER Bishop John A. Gregg of the African Methodist Church was thrice offered the presidency of Howard University, and he thrice declined. That is the story relating to his election to and final declination of the presidency of Howard University told by Bishop Gregg in an interview last Monday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Lankford with visiting friends. His statement, the bishop stated, was based chiefly on his conscription, as a bishop, to religious work and on his promise to return to South Africa, the diocese over which he presides. After reading the conscription services of his church, he said, he could not accept a secular calling. Furthermore, he declared, he had looked forward to the bishopric all his life and there was no incentive great enough to make him renounce it. Bishop Gregg was first appended in Washington on May 7, by Colonel Theodore Roosvelt and General John H. Sherburn, trustees of Howard University, and tendered the presidency. "I told them I could not," he said during the interview, "because I promised to go back to Africa." The committee of trustees appointed to make recommendations of suitable persons for the presidency of Howard University suggested to Bishop Gregg that he discuss the question of his acceptance with some of the other bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Bishop Gregg consented to his advice. He talked with Bishops A. L. Gaines, William Alfred Fountain, H. B. Parks, John Albert Johnson and L. N. Ross on May 10. They took the position that it was a matter for him to decide. He then told them of his views regarding the offer and declared that he would not accept. These other bishops concurred in his views and decision. On the very same day he sent word to this committee of trustees that he could not accept the presidency of Howard University through John R. Hadding, secretary of the A. M. E. Church and a member of the nominating committee. Bishop Gregg advised that he was still of the same opinion as when he first saw the committee. On May 29, he was on approach by Dr. Sara W. Brown, a member of the nominating committee, and Alain Leroy Locke, a former professor at Howard University. They told him that the committee had not yet reached a decision and urged him to accept. They asked Gregg to accept. They asked Gregg said, and he told them, "I am sorry but I shall have to say no." Bishop Gregg then went West, thinking the whole matter closed so far as he was concerned. "I was as much surprised as anybody," Bishop Gregg stated, "when I got the telegram notifying me of my election. I answered the telegram to Dr. Hawkins saying that I could not possibly see how I could accept even though elected." Dr. Hawkins saw Bishop Gregg at the commencement exercises at Wilberforce University on June 17. At the time, without waiting for the meeting of the Bishop's council in Detroit, Mich., June 24, Bishop S. H. DUDLEY'S PLEAD FOR LIFE DIVORCE SUIT OF BOY WHO IS TAKES A TURN FACING DEATH Wife Sues Theatrical Magnate For Principal And Interest On $6,000 Note Alleged To Be Overdue. CAPITAL AGOG OVER MARITAL AFFAIRS (Special Correspondence) Washington, D. C., June 20—Another episode in the sensational Dudley divorce proceedings was added last Tuesday, when he Dudley, of 1210 Sixth street, northwest, filed suit against her estranged hus b and d, Sherman H. Dudley, nationally known theatrical magnate, business man and sportsman, of 1223 Seventh street, northwest, to collect a note. Mrs. Dudley declares that on March 30, 1923, he made; executed and delivered to her a promissory note, payable to the order of Desdemona W. Barnett, her maiden name. The amount of this note, she asserts, is $6,000, and it bears from a film date until a year at the rate of 6 per cent. This note, Mrs. Dudley declares, is overdue and wholly unpaid. She is the holder, she says. She seeks to collect the amount of the note plus interest. The note, she says, became due three months after date. S. H. Dudley filed suit against his wife on May for an absolute divorce, charging that she had misconducted herself with George Davis, a policeman. Mrs. Dudley, in her answer, denied his charges; the court ordered the court to grant a limited charge. She charged her husband with drunkenness, cruelty and desertion. The case is now pending in the District Supreme Court. CLIFFORD FILES DAMAGE SUIT FOR $50,000 CLIFFORD FILES DAMAGE SUIT FOR $50,000 Statement In "Tattler" Concerning Alleged Divorce Declared Absolutely False and Malicious. (By Preston News Service) Pittsburgh, Pa., June 30—In an interview with J. Williams Clifford, former lieutenant in the 'famous Buffalo Regiment and now U.S. government investigator, concerning an article appearing in a recent number of the New York Tattler under the caption "Jay" Clifford Brings Suit Against His Wife Naming Prominent Harlemite." He stated that there was not one word of truth in the article, that it did a great injustice to his wife and family, and that he was not only bringing a damage suit for $50,000 against the spurious publication but he hoped to his wife the writer of the suit in jail for fear of criminal libel. Clifford happened to be in Pittsburgh, Pa., on a special investigation, for the government when the article was brought to his attention and says he was never more surprised and shocked in his life. Mr. Clifford said: "There has never been the slightest misunderstanding or estrangement in my married life since its beginning. I married a lovely girl whose life before and after her marriage has been clean and honorable. That some wicked person would attempt to cast aspersions on her high moral character by writing and publishing such a displeiable, contemptuous and criminal thing that would do everything in my power to put them behind the bars." They are a menace to society—the jail is the place for them." Lt. Clifford and his wife prominent in Eastern social (Continued on Page Five) TWELVE PAGES—TWO PARTS GETS For Civ UEST FOR PLEAD FOR LIFE OF BOY WHO IS FACING DEATH Governor of North Carolina Hears White and Colored Express Doubt of Guilt of Alvin Mansell. WAS CONVICTED ON CHARGE OF RAPE Raleigh, N. C.—Following is the story of the hearing Monday before Governor McLean in behalf of Alvin Mansel, 17 year old Negro boy facing the electric chair for alleged rape, as told by the Raleigh correspondent of the Greensboro Daily News. "Wilson," he says, the folks on it, Governor. "Hall Johnson said this afternoon, talking at his own expense for little black Alvin Mansel, 'I can defeat the plan of salvation in Buncombe county.'" "Mr. Johnson was; 'not making war on the plan; he was burning up his nerves, his spirit and his precious energy for the black boy whom the plan of salvation cannot save from the electric chair, unless one of the most devout believers in it, Governor A. W. McLean, comes to the rescue with his own prerogatives, not unlike those of the deity. That Mr. Johnson are his associate, Sum B. Craig, of Pickens, S. C. made an impression, that he C. admits little doubt. Never executive saw a finer spectacle than this South Carolinian and North Carolinian who have no interest in the world beyond a desire to interrupt North Carolina's purpose to snuff out the life of this black brat until North Carolina is certain of what she is about. Good Character, Good Alibi "Many death cases have been heard here in this generation by the old auditors in the newspaper game. Governors galore have been yelled at by hired howlers, subsidized sobers and salaried screeches until a clementy hearing over a candidate for the electric chair has come to have no meaning beyond its parts of the day's dreary work. But here is a little South Black girl boy who has come into a court surrounded by a hedge of bayonets. His good character and good alibi do not impress a jury absorbing, like a dog around in dog surroundings. Lawyers speaking to the triers saturated with the spirit of slaughter, stub their toes on the guns stacked for the soldiers. The little nigger goes down before the all-nervading mob spirit. "But the bravado of the mob murders has evaporated. They have come, like whipped spandials afraid of the lash, dropped on their knees, these hundred per centers, and begged mercy of the law which they had flouted. The little Negro has taken his medicine. He is groomed for the grave, ready to die; and has sung himself into an cestacy for his great day. But he swears that he wasn't there when the crime against that poor white woman was committed and his good character stands by him. Plicky and industrious little Negro, he stays on his job and is caught on it while the scouring posses comb the hills for the assailant of the white woman. He is only 17 years old, philologist and none too courageous. He is at work for the tubercular patients when the officers take him and he has been in the hands of the state ever since. Says Didn't Have Chance "Not anything about this case, Governor, except this; this little Negro just wasn't there," Mr. Johnson continued, often brandishing his graceful arms and hammering the governor's desk, as though the unperturbable Scotchman were the highly sensitized I. Joe Bush, but not saying anything against Judge Stack, but he did not give my little Negro a chance," Mr. Johnson continued. Governor McLean asked for the bill of particulars and Mr. John. (Continued on Page Five.) EIGHT ic Prot R HOWAR Elected Howard President M. B. STATEMENT OF REV. MR. LONG IS AN UNTRUTH While preaching at Second Calvary Baptist Church Wednesday night of last week, Rev. C. M. Long, former pastor of Bank Street Baptist Church, who is now pastoring in East Orange, N. J., in referring to the statement he gave this newspaper containing certain specific criticisms of Norfolk on his departure from here, and which was published in these columns charged that the statement had been altered or distorted by the editor so as to place upon it an interpretation different from that intended by him when he wrote it. He is also reported to have stated that before leaving he was asked by the editor of this newspaper for some expression of his interest on local conditions, and that after he wrote and submitted an article and it had been altered so as to misrepresent him, he approached the editor with a request that he be allowed space to submit an off-setting article or a correction, and that this request was refused him. An Untruth If the Rev. Mr. Long made such a statement, or made any remarks having substantially the same meaning, he told an absolute and unqualified falsehood. If he said that the editor of this newspaper or anyone connected with it asked for a press statement from him when it was learned that he intended giving up his work here, he deliberately and knowingly falsified. If he said that the editor or anyone connected with this newspaper distorted or altered the wording of the statement that he did submit and which was published, at his request, he again falsified. If he said that he made a request upon this newspaper to be permitted to submit for publication a further explanatory statement and was denied the use of these columns, he again told a plain untruth. The Facts The facts are these: the only alteration made to the article in this office was the transposition of a paragraph from down in the body of the statement to the top so as to make it the opening paragraph. That was done because only a few people know how an opening paragraph to a news story should be constructed; they often place the most essential paragraph in the body or at the end of story. Newspapermen know better and almost immediately make the change in their duty to do the Rev. Mr. Long's statement was altered. It was published verbatim, and he alone is responsible for any interpretation that the public placed upon it. Moreover, the Rev. Mr. Long ex- (Continued on Page Five) ALL NEWS THAT'S WORTH READING PRICE 7 CENTS YEARStection D PREXY NOTED PASTOR IS NAMED FOR HOWARD POST Board of Trustees Unanimously Elect Mordecai Johnson For Position Declined By Bishop J.

(By Associated Negro Press) Washington D. C, June 29—A father, Daniel Freeman, 40 years old, exonerated last Wednesday by a coroner's son, Raymond Freeman, 25 years old.

Their father invited their mother to go for a ride, witnesses swore, but the two boys refused to leave the house. Raymond struck the father knocking him down. The father got up, and father and son climbed. Raymond got out of the clinch, grabbed a large lamp and struck his father with it, knocking the old man unconscious and butting his head.

OLD DOMINION MEDICALSOCIETY CLOSES SESSION 21st Annual Session In Richmond Marked By Large Attendance And Much Enthusiasm. Richmond, Va.—The Old Dominion Medical Society held its 21st annual meeting in Richmond June 15th, 16th and 17th with one of the most enthusiastic gatherings of medical, surgical and pharmaceutical men ever assembled in any city in the state before, among the race group. The preparations made by the Richmond Chapter some months in advance of the meeting were well laid and carried out to the minute detail which insured a well run convention with interest sustained throughout the sessions covering the three days. More than sixty physicians, surgeons and pharmacists attended the meetings. Expressions from out of town visiting medical men indicated that the sessions were filled with more genuine interest and information than any ever before attended by them. Where Sessions Were Held The regular sessions were held at the home of the Williams' Lodge of Elks, Fourth and Clay streets. The sessions opened officially on Tuesday morning, June 15th with the president Dr. L. C. Downing of Roanoke, Va., presiding. After the reports of committees and other routine business were disposed of, the president delivered his annual address. Following this address, papers were read on the following subjects, "Tetany," led by P. G. Dabney, M. D., of Fredericksburg; "The Pharmacist in the Community" by C. T. Baylor Phar. D. of Richmond; "Ulcer of the Stomach" by O. B. H. Bowser, M. D., of Richmond. The subjects were further discussed by Drs. J. B. Darden of Petersburg A. M. Bowles of Richmond, and D. W. Byrd of Norfolk respectively. Public Health Meeting On Tuesday night a public health meeting was held at the Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist Church, with Dr. E. S. Boege of this city. After the devotionals, led by Rev Mr. A. W. Brown, pastor of the church, musical numbers were sung followed by remarks by Dr. I. A. Jackson, president of the Richmond Medical Society; the welcome address by Attorney Jas. T. Carter, president of the Southern Aid Society and Commercial Bank and Trust Company. Other addresses, by Dr. R. J. Mathews of Norfolk, Miss Carrie M. Sharp, R. N. on behalf of the nurses, followed. The principal address of the evening was delivered by Dr. G. W. Bowles of York, Pa., on the subject "Conservation of Health." The address by Dr. Bowles, who is chairman of the National Medical Association was of fundamental benefit to this community and was calculated to give valuable information and advice in the making and maintaining of a health community. Musical numbers were supplied by a double quartette from the Sabbath Glee Club and by Mrs. Alverta Gilpin. Medical Clinics On Wednesday the day was primarily set apart for attendance at medical and surgical clinics; the latter being held at the Sarah G. Jones Memorial Hospital. Six major operations were performed at this clinic with much success in each case. The medical clinics held at the Elks' Home were conducted by Dr. Joseph Bear, Assistant Professor of Obstetrics at the Medical College of Virginia; Dr. Warren T. Vaughn internist; Dr. F. D. Whitby, neurologist; Dr. S. W. Budd of the St. Luke Hospital. On Thursday the closing day of the convention, discussions of general nature with additional clinics were the activities for the day. There were interspersed a number of social activities for the entertainment of the visiting guests, among which was a reception at the home of the Council of Colored Women on Tuesday evening following the public health meeting; a Dawn Dance on Wednesday morning at the Elks' Home; a card party for the visiting ladies on the evening; a sightseeing trip about the city and a closing dantan at Johnson's Auditorium on Thursday night. The latter affair was a brilliant an enjoyable occasion with more than three hundred guests present. The local committee on arrangements, with Dr. F. S. Roane, as general chairman spared no pains to make the convention attractive and the entertainment of the visitors enjoyable. Dr. A. W. Winslow, of Danville, Va., was elected president of the Old Dominion Medical Society for the next year. The convention meets in Portsmouth for its 22nd annual meeting next year. Hinessey Mary S.

Substitute for petroleum is being developed in Norway to supply cheaper fuel for the fishing fleet THE NEW YORK TIMES MRS. EMMETT J. SCOTT Washington, D. C., June 30—Mrs. Emmett J. Scott who has been appointed a member of the newly created Board of Public Welfare by the commissioners of the District of Columbia. Her term is of two years. Mrs. Scott has been prominently identified with social and welfare work in the District of Columbia as well as at Tuskegee Institute, Ala., where she resided prior to her husband becoming the secretary-treasurer of Howard University. For three years she was the chairman of the seventh district conference of the Associated Charities of the District of Columbia and a member of the Summer Outing Committee. While Dr. Scott was the Secretary of Tuskegee Institute, Mrs. Scott was for many years the chairman of important RICH FLOYD CEPHAS, Age Says Boyd Case Typical of Southern Injustice RICHMOND FLOYD CEPHAS, Agent, 205 E. Leigh Street Richmond, Va.—The case of Susie Boyd, the colored woman sentenced to thirty years in the penitentiary by Judge W. Kirk Mathews, when she pleaded guilty to three indictments charging forgery, conspiracy, and insulting Joseph Simpson, ruse newspaper man, sent the following protest to the Times-Dispatch: "VIRGINIA JUSTICE" In the News, the fifth, 16th, writer who gives himself as an indignant citizen, in a letter published in the forum asks "what is the matter with Richmond?" He goes on to cite the cases of Mrs. Snider and Mrs. Boyd, one of whom is white and the other colored. He also cites the conspiracy of his letter reads, thus: The white woman had lawyers and influence. The colored woman had no lawyers and no influence. Is there no cry of indignation of protest, or will the citizens of Richmond truly and quickly allow such injustice. When will other communities think of our city. Susie Boyd's case is just a repetition of several other cases that have been handled in Virginia in the past two years. I feel confident that she was a woman in the state of Virginia that has forgotten the case of the two young Nerro boys that were tried, convicted and sentenced to the electric chair in the short space of ninety minutes, and the case of another colored youth in the state of seventeen years, the case of Louis Watkins who was sent to the chair protesting his innocence. These are only a few of the cases that could be cited here to prove that the Nerro boys no worse than some that have precluded it. The South has always claimed that it was the only place for the Negro, that they were better acquainted with the Negro, than the country that they were more sympathetic toward the Negro, but this line of seasoning has played its last time for the 'nhuman treatment accorded the Negro by the Southern white man and which has been used to punish people proved to the civilized world that the Negro has never been accorded justice in the South. He is arrested by a white officer, tried before a white judge and by a white jury, convicted of a crime, and then white overcrowds. Now in the name of all that is hard can he get justice? The Negro of the South is asking the white man of the South to give him the benefit of the 1848 amendment to the United States constitution, and that they be enforced with the same zeal as the 1848 amendment is enforced.

Leigh Street Elks Denounce Radical Headlines Richmond, Va.—The old and time worn saying, “a City divided against Itself cannot stand,” has struck the Capital of the Commonwealth of Virginia, a solitary city in the state of the Elks. One has but to spend a few hours in Richmond among the Elks to learn what is going on. The rank and file of the Anteceded Herd are up in arms against the Secured City, the page of certain papers, designating a verbal battle between two ambitious members of the Order as “Elk War,” and claim that as a matter of order, the City is not the page of certain Order. Seemingly very little attention is being paid to the highest office in the Grand Jurisdiction, all eyes and activities are centered on the aspirants for the office of the City. The candidates for this office from the city of Richmond, one of whom is the present incumbent, He is being opposed by a neighbor and fellow township, Mr. Toliver, at present one of the Grand Trustees of the Order, who resides in the City of Roanoke, and is well known throughout Elkdom. Many complimentary remarks have been made by Richmonders who are supporters of candidates from their home town. In fact, it is frankly admitted by both sides that they fear “Little Tiff” as he is more genial home and abroad, and are very much troubled at not being able to find anything against him. He is also very warmly commended for announcing his candidacy direct to the subordinate bodies of the Grassland of entering to lighthearted goers. On the whole, it appears from observations at the fountain of information in that Richmond is fighting against itself, the selected World War II Tresurer at Cleveland next August will overshadow all other contents.

Lee' and NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE SABBATH GLEE CLUB SCORES BIG IN LOCAL RECITAL The famous Sabbath Glee Club of Richmond, under the leadership of Joseph Matthews appeared in the City Armory Sunday afternoon before an audience of approximately 1500 persons. For one hour and forty minutes the group of singers, about 25 in number, held the audience in rantuous attention and delighted it with an exhibition of singing Negro folk lore seldom equaled. "God's Heaven," "Roll Jordan, Roll, "Hold the Wing," "Ezekiel Saw the Wheel," and "Swing Low Sweet Chariot," drew encores, while every number was delightfully rendered. "Steal Away," was sung with a pathetic sweetness difficult to match. The concert was excellent in every particular and the singers not only lived up to their reputation but won for themselves new laurels. Mr. J. W. Traynham, manager of the club, sends a letter to the Journal and Guide this week expressing the thanks of the club for the citizens of Norfolk for their presence and sympathetic encouragement. The letter reads as follows: Editor, Journal and Guide: The Sabstibh Glee Club makes this mechanical instrument of Norfolk by their presence and sympathetic encouragement enabled us to "do our bit" with Bureka Lodge for Burkeville Suntorum.

GET IN TOUCH WITH US FOR YOUR PICNICS AND OUTINGS. P. BERNARD YOUNG, JR. Announcement has been made that the Southeastern (Opn) Championship Tournament, inaugurated by the Virginia Tennis Association last summer, will be held at Kittrell College, Kittrell, N.C., July 13, 14, and 15. This tournament was the greatest event of its kind in the Southeast last summer in point of competition, number of entrants, enthusiastic interest, and genuine hospitality. The national Institute (Virginia State College) Petersburg, Va., where the tourney was staged last summer. Since it was an interstate affair, the officials of the Carolina Association that it be allowed to be sponsored this year. Kittrell College has recently built some splendid courts, six in all. They will be ample for the competent running off of the matches, and reports have it that they are in ideal playing condition. This tournament, sanctioned by the American Tennis Association, will be open to all qualified amateur contestants, and will decide the championships in men's and ladies, singles, men's and mixed doubles, women's doubles and junior singles. Those hundred odd players and scores of visitors who played at the Southeastern at Petersburg last summer, of which your correspondent was acting chairman and promoter, will never forget the stirring matches and cordial reception received on the Hilltop. The same splendid tournament is promised by officials of the Carolina Tennis body, of which Dr. T. S. Furlonge of Smithfield, N. C., is president and J. S. Cooke, Ralph, N. C., is secretary. Entries are being received now by those men, or may be sent care of the Sporting Editor of the Journal and Guide. Already Virginia, North Carolina, Maryland, District of Columbia, West Virginia, Tennessee, Georgia, and several other states have indicated their intention of sending participants. The affair is open to all that is to any player who is a member of the A. T. A. or any of its member clubs and subordinate bodies. Roaming will free of charge in the college dormitories; meals in the dining room will be fifty cents each. Social features will include dawn practices, dances, card parties, fishing, swimming, and other affairs so arranged as to interest the least played players energies. Three legal cups are on the winners and runners-up in each event. These include the Norfolk Journal and Guide trophy, the first leg of which has been won by J. W. Anderson of Lawrenceville. Winers of last year were: J. W. Anderson, Lawrenceville, m'en's singles; the Downing Brothers, Roanoke, men's doubles, Dr. J. L. McGriff, Portsmouth, and Miss Pearman, Petersburg, mixed doubles; Miss Pearman, indies singles and Thomas Calloway, Roanoke. Further information and details are expected to be forthcoming next week, and will be published in this paper. Less than a fortnight hence, Orville Chapdelaine, who sails under the colors of Jack Delaney, will be mixing it for the third time with Herr Paul Berlenbach, the pursuant light sailer. He will join the team with the exercising left. These Knights of Cauliflower have had two previous meetings and the count is one-all.

NORMALAND TIGERS PREPARE FOR 1926 GAMES Lawrenceville, Vn., July 1—Beginning with 1927, Virginia normal and Industrial Institute (State College) and St. Paul Normal and Industrial School will play two games of baseball on Easter Monday instead of one as heretofore, the first will be played at Lawrenceville at 10:00 o'clock a.m., and the second will be played at Petersburg at 4:00 o'clock p.m. It is understood that the Easter Monday St. Paul-Virginia Normal Baseball Doubleheader has been under the consideration of the two athletic authorities of the two schools for some time. The schools concerned for that the two games on Easter Monday will be for their best interests, and this, together with rostered requests from the alumni, faculty, students, ex-students and friends of St. Paul and Virginia Normal, is directly responsible for their favorable decision. It is fivery likely that all out-of-town spectators will motor to the games, because travel in this manner not only makes trips pleasant and the places reached, but the natural inconveniences and undesirable rushes attendant upon other modes of transportation are the trip. The voyage to Paris is 45 miles. Just the proper distance to invigorate and refresh. Lunchroom may be had at Lawrenceville, and then there will be ample time to leisurely journey to Petersburg for the Night Cap. ALBANY MAKES A CLEAN SWEEP ALBANY MAKES A CLEAN SWEEP Albany, Ga., July 1—Displaying a combination of fast fielding and timely hitting, Bill Gatewood's Albany Giants made a clean sweep of the four-game series with Chattanooga. The Tennesseeans did not have a chance in the opening game when the Giants banged out fourteen hits while the visitors were making one "lone run." The second game was a "comedy of errors" with both teams making a gang of 'em. The Giants, however, took advantages of the visitors' errors and won 13-12. Two hits and an error gave the Giants a '2-0 victory in the third game of the series. The feature of a win was a catch by Peter Washington, the Giants' leftfielder, that robbed Gurley of a home run. The Giants made it four straight when they turned in a 7-4 victory Thursday afternoon. more decisive, but Paul showed enough in the return engagement to justify the long end of the decision. This will be a scrap, indeed, between two of the game's best liked opponents in the chumpers of the padded mitt. They are the keenest of rivals. One is a champion, which is enough to assure enough action from going to gong to last a ANNOUNCEMENT of the GRAND OPENING of the LINCOLN COLORED PARK AND BEACH This beautiful Park built on the water front with riding devices, large spacious dancing pavilion, swings, and slides for the kiddies, concessions.

Plans are underway now to stage another Tidewater senior and junior tournament. The last Tidewater Tournament, slagged under the combined auspices of the Journal and Guide and the Tidewater Tennis Club, was held in 1924. This was very successful. The trophies were offered by this paper. Last summer the meet was planned for the latter part of the season, was eventually called off because of the lateness of the season and similar reasons. Officials are resolute in their determination to stave the meet this year, especially in bringing real interest. Senior players are working out daily, with interest growing steadily. Real competition is looked for when the most owners for Tidewater boosts now of some veteran stars and promising younger wielders of the gutted rackets. Other plans are being worked out and will soon be announced. HILLDALE BLANK LINCOLN GIANTS Philadelphia, June 24—Rod Ryan's slants were too dizzy for the Lincoln Giants to sove and Ed. Bolder's crew scored a shut-out over the New York team at Hildale Park by the score of 3 to 0. From the "Redhead's" assortment of benders, John Henry Lloyd and the rest of the Lincoln Tribe were able to gather by three hits, two that were clean swats and one was somewhat tainted when Young poked one through George Carr's legs in the eighth inning that the Hildale first sacker failed to get his hands on. Aside from this swat Burdell Young registered a clean triple in the first inning "High Pockets" with Hildale out a single in the fourth inning, the Pockets opposed Ryan on the hill and barring the first oninning when the New York hunter handed out three bases on balls and forced in one of the runs scored, he pitched a steady game. young life time. Delaney packs a wallop in either mitt and the most on the starboard. Berlenbach also packs hofty cracks in either bread-winner, boasting of the most on the port side. Neither will have a set up to contend with. Jack is claimed to be new man and comes back to this game with renewal strength, while Berlenbach is improving with time. He is nothing like the Paulie that faced Delaney in the first meeting and is a is a bit farther from the Paulie that faced Jack in the second fray. Delaney is improved, so is Berlenbach. The former might be the fashiest and fastest, but cogent Berlenbach will not be disposed of with little trouble. This's column's bet that the champion will still be the king when the curtain is wring down on the last act. The Climax Some seem to think that when the climax is reached that it continues to lead on and, but not so. The climax is the culminating point and when it is reached, retrogression takes place. When the highest peak has been attained by anyone, there he lingers for awhile, but that going back will cease. See the image.

At that this city was in an athle came to the foreground and m to replace sports on a firm st ward in a great many instan been lamenting the demise of cause and cooperate with the LOCAL BASEBALL IN NEED SUPPORT BY SPORT FOLLOWERS By WILLEY A. JOHNSON, JR. A number of followers of sports of this section, for some time, complained about the scarcity of athletics in various forms in Norfolk. Such arguments and contentions could not be intelligently rebutted. At that particular time, it seemed that this city was in an athletic lethargy. Finally someone came to the foreground and made more than a feeble attempt to replace sports on a firm standing, but failure was the reward in a great many instances. The very ones that had been lamenting the demise of sports failed to rally to the cause and cooperate with the promoters. The season of inactivity was witnessed in the summer months, when there was practically no sports at all, not considering the junior baseball nines that staged sandlot games. This summer underwent an entire rejuvenation under the guidance of the dinosaur to revive the fast dying spirit of the local baseball fan—results so far, slim attendance. This looks very bad, indeed for the sport lovers of Norfolk, especially since the people here have always had the name of stauch supporters of baseball. And it looks much worse when these same ones who stay away from games staged by their own group, are seen out in hords when Norfolk of Vikings or Virginians. Of course it is well for them to attend games of the Virginia League, but it does seem that they should rally to the cause of their own and be instrumental in placing baseball and other sports on a higher plan here. The Norfolk Tigers The Norfolk Tigers, local aggrievement of some ability has been staging games here regularly and brand of ball that holds all indications of bordering on the scintillating in a short while, but these boys have been playing before a mere microscopic few in comparison to the number that attends other games. The management of this team has brought some very good competition here to pit against the local team, and the players have held their own. When such teams as Cim Posey's Homestead Grays and the Lancaster Black Crescent of Hunsburg, ma, have brought here to vengeance, it can be easily seen that the management is doing its utmost to bring some of the best teams available to play before the local fans. It is very discouraging to be rebuffed when one is doing his best. When fans fail to lend their support, it can be termed nothing but a rebuff to the managers and promoters of events who are endeavoring to give their best. In the face of these rebuffs, these same fans are unstintingly supporting Virginia League baseball. The fans who have been attending these games are to be commended for their spirit, but their attendance doesn't come anywhere near paying the managers for the trouble and expense that has to be countenanced in securing some of the best semi-pro teams north of the boundary of segregation. The cooperation of the fans would not only assure a better brand of ball, but would assist the local teams in receiving more consideration from the park officials. The next appearance of the Norfolk Tigers will bring many new faces before the locals, which have strengthened the team considerably. At least five new players have been added to the roster, the managers announced. Their names have not been acquired. Their services will be improved, but their services will increase the playing ability of the team—which isn't below now—by a large margin. The Norfolk Tigers appear to be the best semi-pro team in this section since the days of the old Norfolk All-Stars. The team will journey to Cape Charles Monday, July 16th to play a three-game series, July 13, 14, 15 with the Ebenezer Royals of Baltimore.

FIRST HALF OF SOUTHERN RACE [By The Associated Newspaper] Memphis, Ten, July Running true to the dope impressed three weeks by the Minneapolis Black Bomber closed the first half of the season in the lead of the other seven teams of the Southern League with Albany and Ned Orleans in the runner-up positions. In discussing the achievement of the Barons, Manager Smith declared; "Good pitching and timely hitting are responsible for the success of the team. The boys struck their stride after the first week and came up to expectations of the management and the fans in every department of the game." Season Starts July 1st The Southern League teams have "spoiled 'em all out and started all over again." The league matches met in Montgomery, Friday with President Bert M. Roldy in the sand to arrange the second half schedule.

TYNES FOUND GUILTY OF MURDER IN SECOND DEGREE (Continued from Page One) 1906. At that time he was 18 years of age and his wife 16, he said. Coming to the night of the tragedy, the defendant stated that he reached home for the first time for the night shortly after eight o'clock. He did not find his wife home, he said, and returned to the streets, going over town. He came home again around 11 o'clock, he stated, not finding his wife home at this time. The house was dark, Tynes said, and apparently there was no one home. He turned on the light, his story goes, went up stairs for a few minutes and returned down stairs, entered the library and began to read a book. Starts Out After being there about 15 minutes, he said, he started out and met his wife coming staggering up the front porch steps. He opened the screen door and remarked to her, "you are drunk again." At this remark, his wife whirled around and fell off the porch, while he reached after her. He returned inside of the house, he stated, he was not aware where his wife went, nor did he know at that time that she was hurt. Tynes said he went upstairs and wrapped up two of the secretary books belonging to the coal trimmers corporation of which he is president and started out with the intention of leaving his wife permanently. He had in his mind the intention of calling up his Ecology Deli Paed at the Funeral of Mrs. Henrietta Davis of Chase City, Va., by Mary, M. Mary, P. Puraye. A. B. Wednesday—junior after the noon meal had been eaten by two of the oldest citizens of Chase City, the paths of life in band, had shared its sorrows and joys and burdens and resists; had reeamed and secured his life; had seen the eve of a well apart life where the storms of worldly desires had shaded and they were ready. He quickly downed to earth the servant servals, and say to her "well done." "It is time for your promotion," for a long time you have to leave, "You have been tossed and tromped, you've been a toiler and a burden bearer through a long and perilous journey, on the long march." The banner is not soled nor dutty, the sword is bright, the puck, banner and sword have been delivered to the Superior OF You have filled the mission on which you were sent, and your report is excel- Now the place of your heart's desire is veneant. Your room, your uniform, your clothes, your shoes, your bible, on the list for retirement and eternal rest. You have been faithful in the discharge of the duties of bishop, bishop of st. Ignatius and a Christian. Your prayers have come up and your soul's petitions have been grown more interesting and understanding of mortal life and take your place of promotion amongst my saints who have come up through great tribulations washed away. The message was a shock to the mortal life and like Paul the soul cried one: "Lord who hallowed me with your name; 'Come home.' Under the stroke of the message she struggled a few days amid tears and smiles—an friend and a sister of a complaint was heard as long as she could speak: but with a laugh sweet and mellow, or a laugh silently uttered by each, and silently uttered the two parting words, "Good boy." Her life was one of kindly and enduring love in contrast. Early in life she became a Christian and ever after she heralded the great message so dear to Christian hearts, and so enchanting to those who were Saturday at 6:15 p. m. in the quiet of the day, while the birds sings the dawn of the morning, she joins them to get the days last nectar, she joined hands with the heavenly bridegroom and marched through the nearly crowded garden, and the severely Father as the bride of the Lamb. She is not dead, she sleeps quietly undurbed by our cries and tears. Her beauty is bright and sparkling, her eyes grow dim while here; but now they are bright and sparkling. She needs no light, natural or artificial, or she stands amid the flowers of an institution whose wholeness is far more bright than our mortal minds can conceive. Her room is a palace of the King. It is built of jewels which she had dug out of life's bed rock of trials with the tools of her craft, and she driver picked up by Heaven's Architect and fitted in their respective places in the structure. The objects of billowy down, plucked from the thorns of life's sufferings and sorrows, waffled on the winds of hope and trust up to Heaven's unhallowed hands, made them into a bed of softness and case. The curtains are draperies woven by the Royal heaver from thread in the man's lap, and made them into interwoven under His direction, so that the rainbows tears which she shed mingled with smiles bring out the tints of heaven. The cords which hold them ajar are the flowers which send messages and heart throbs of love. The flowers which grow in the garden are the flowers which she had strewn by the way side, the seeds of which had been gathered by her, the flowers where their perfume was rarest, the foliage greenest and the blossoms most beautiful, and to go out and enjoy her garden of roses. "She is gone but not forgotten, For to live in hearts we leave behind is A devoted wife, a loving and indulgent mother, a kind neighbor, and a consistent Christian has gone away to reign over her son. Rest on dear heart. Thou, shalt not know a care. For God has seen their sufferings, known his love, and has answered prayers. lawyer and requesting that he sell his home, because he (Tynes) was tired of his wife's alleged unbecoming conduct. The witness stated that for the past four years, since his wife has been serving parties for the caterer for whom she worked, he had been having trouble with her. She often came home as late as two or three o'clock in the morning under the influence of whiskey, he said. She attended "wild parties, the ness declared, and another woman would remonstrate, and she would be old enough to take care of herself, working telling her that he was able working, telling her that was able to give her anything she desired. Tynes denied that he had even put his hands on his wife on the night she died. He said only once during their married life had he hit her and that was about two years ago when he gave her a smack. He said he had not owned a pistol since 1923, that he did not meet his wife for the jiley terminal. He said he had she had, quite around 5 o'clock he returned because while returning from the ball game he saw her on a one-man street car on Church street, going in a northerly direction about 6 o'clock. He told of his home having been previously advertised for sale but explained that it was on account of an unpaid deed of trust incurred because of a lien for unpaid material that went into the building of the house and for which the contractor was responsible. The accused testimony contained the only aspersions cast upon the character of his dead wife during the entire trial. His counsel judiciously avoided any uncompensatory reference to her life. Mountbatten's Attorney McCoy told the defendant through a sliff cross examination but failed to shake his story in any of its essentials. When the defendant was recalled to the stand to -clear up statements made by a witness before the coroner regarding his having once before threatened to kill his wife, Tynes said about two years ago Mamma Lee, as he called her, came home unclad except for a one-piece dress and under the fluence of whiskey in front of this an argument with himself of this an argument with himself, he said, following which she ran out of the house to the Macklin shop, where he pursued and returned her to her home. He denied making any attack upon her at this time.

McCoy and Assistant Commonwealth's attorney John F. Arnold appeared for the State, while Ernest Merritt, appalled by the defendant, said he just was not sure Sargent asked the customer question Monday morning, "Is the Commonwealth ready?" that both sides were keyed for a pitched bid. The customer trial did the Commonwealth ask for the death penalty, it asked only a concession and it fought for a conviction. The defense started out after nothing less than an acquittal and outlasted the defense. Mr. Merrill, for the defense, certainly experienced two active days - his first on the court and his second when he could. Time and again he thrust his fingers through his thick ankle hair, wiping it out with his fingers, leaped to his feet with objections to the prosecution's line of questioning or other evidence he advantage for his client. But, it can be said right here that Mr. Merrill certainly lined up spectators in the courtroom by his frequent referring to Negroes as "darkies" once as a test of his client that he forgot to regard the sensibilities of the better. Unknown that there are colored people with very acute sensibilities to whom the terms "darkies" and "niggers" are fouled easily. Detective Leon Nowiky built the State's case. He was one of the most active persons in the courtroom of the Commonwealth lawyers, there he was a hundred times or more whispering suggestions to the State. Winchester. He showed no sign of vindictiveness, however, and even those in the courtroom whose sympathetic witness had admitted that Mr. Nowiky was devoted to his duty. He proved the only visible link between the actions of the Commonwealth witnesses and there with positive testimony all of the time, and it was he who had rounded up all of the Commonwealth witnesses. He then back to the courtroom, however, when the proceedings and verdict of the coroner's jury were upon consent of the attorney. Neatly Dressed Nattyly attired in a dark blue silk mohair suit, immaculately clean soft white shirt with collar attached, black patent leather oxford, fancy socks of a good quality, and a white banded groomed to a nicety. Tyne entered the courtroom Monday morning accompanied by Detective Nowiky. From then on he saw the courtroom where Commonwealth's Attorney declare that he had not shown the regard to his wife that "he cat would show for her kittens," he added. He underwent a blood stain and bullet holed exhibited to the jury and he heard his own youngest son testifying for the Commonwealth, but he was not all. Only twice did this reporter notice on Tyne's countenance a relaxation from the stolickism that stood by him when he testified for the Commonwealth, were only for brief periods—once when the Commonwealth sprung its uprise witness, who testified that she saw the alteration on the porch, something that looked like it was wrapped in a paper and hold it near the body in the room. A muffled revolver report coming from the porch of the Tyne home. Beads of porpiration popped off the porch and when this testimony was coming from Mrs. Johnson's lips. The other time when the defendant showed slight damage to the patio and dripping took its wick of the defended winked rapidly. Those were the only two instances in which this reporter, who was sitting in the patio and dripping, him showing the slightest emotion. But over the courtroom among the spectators there fell a hush of sticks craned to look at the grenadine and old women and old grenadine audibly. Briklyk Tyms stood up to hear the reading of the indictment. To that he pleaded not guilty. The first witness called was Detective Nowiky. After answering the Sunday, July 4th at 11 A. M. and 8 P. M. All are cordially invited to hear him preliminary questions as to age, acquisition, etc., the very first question asked by Mr. Belford and the death of Lenora counsel for the defense, Mr. Merli confided that the detective was present. While the court and attorneys engaged in a discussion of question and question raised by the defense lawyer, and while the spectator's great interest and word of knowing led evidently and withdrawn the proceedings were halted as the Marine Band, clad in white uniforms, formed on the court and struck out and struck out.

The celebration over, the court was called to order. Mr. Nowitzky resumed the witness stand. He recited incident of his investigation of the killing on the night it occurred, the most important part of his testimony referring to a wand of hair he claimed to have found near the steps of the Tynes home. Here the picture of the home as published in the Journal and Guide of May 16, was clipped from that issue and passed to the jury for inspection, after the detective had noted on it with a lead pencil the spot where he found the wad of hair. Mr. Nowitzky also testified that the accused when placed under arrest had been drinking. He testified to the probable calibre of the pistol making the bullet wound in Mrs. Tynes body, saying it was a 22 or 25, and declared that other than the dislocated neck and the bullet wound there were no other marks of violence on her body. Dr. L. M. Little, interne nt St. Vincent's Hospital, followed Mr. Novikizy on the stand. He declared that he found on the dend comma the wound on the hospital only the dislabeled neck, and not the bullet wound.

There were several colored character witnesses also, but not one of these witnesses was familiar with Tynes' home life, they admitted. No Shot Heard The Commonwealth put more than a dozen on the single one of them could testify to actually hearing a plotstist; while only one, Miss Bertha Dudley testified to having been in the house. All the other eyewitnesses testified to having the couple on the porch and of hearing an argument on what they believed she be a siffler. Mrs. Stinnes, for whom Mrs. Tyne worked, declared that the woman was an eyewitness to the crime seen her drink nor under the influence of whiskey. She said the dead woman should have finished the party she served Mrs. Stinnes, was called by the defense. Miss Mabel White, who said she worked for Mrs. Stinnes, said she testified that she was the only one around 5 o'clock because she returned the service she had used about that time. She was the only one around 5 o'clock because she returned the service she had used about that time. There were none who could account for the presence or actions of Mrs. Tyne from early in the afternoon until she was about 1 o'clock Tuesday, after all evidence was in, the jury went by automaton. Mr. Arnold opened the argument for the presence of Mrs. Tyne, who was responsible for the death. She was shot, there is no question of that.

Mr. McCoy declared the lawyer gingerly picked up the game case of the dead woman, hung it over the fireplace and exhibited it to him. It was here that Tyne's eyes winked. Mr. McCoy then picks up her son and puts that before the jury. He closes an impassioned plea for a vow of love. sibirun 'hair and cried; "not a single wileiness saw. saw the deceased hit the electric Dudley. Don't send this message to the electric chair on the floor of Emma Johnson's house of God, what reason should we have for meeting his wife life on that testimony.

Where was she from the last work until home? I tell you some of these colored people under the sound of my voice could tell you if they it unreasonable assume that she had been home in an automobile in my condition? NOTICE! To The Delegates and Friends of The Rappahannock Baptist Sunday School Convention: "You ask why Johnny Tynes did not get a doctor for his wife when Hall told him something he was not told did not appreciate the seriousness of her condition, said Mr. Merril, and neither did Drew or Laad, who testified to seeing him. He did not a single thing to help her. No, not a single witness has testified in anger. Only Johnny Tynes can know what he had to suffer. You must not convict on suspicion, must not take your life to make your home, your life on his guilt. It is better that ninety-nine guilty go free from the jail. He hitherto drew the testimony of Joseph Drew Martha Williams and several others, but did refer to the dying declaration. Mrs. Tynes altered dying declaration. Please allow me to call your attention to some very important matters pertaining to your coming session at our church. First, the President asks you to come Wednesday, July 7th. There are two trains on which you can reach us; eight o'clock morning, and three o'clock afternoon, from Union Station, Norfolk. But we have arranged for a special car for your use, on the morning train Wednesday. We shall expect you on that especially. Also, the delegates may have to walk from the train, and hence we are trying to have that special car stopped much closer to the church. McCoy Closes Mr. McCoy closed for the State. He too, reviewed the testimony of the State's witness and sought to defend their testimony from Mr. Merrill's attack. The woman had sworn to cherish. Mr. McCoy pointed out that it was unseeing that when Tynes came down states with his wife, he had with his own son had brought the body of Mrs. Tynes home and were all gathered around her in the house, that Tynes expressed his love for Mrs. Tynes this commotion in my house?" The Commonwealth's attorney ridiculed the idea that Tynes was leaving his home at 12 o'clock at night or three times a week for nearly one year on business for coal trimners, to attend to business pertaining to the sale of property he needed because that Tynes knew why he needed a lawyer. In the second place, the railroad officials asked me to request urgently that the delegates and all attending, purchase round trip tickets, both for the company's convenience, and to save the delegates trouble and confusion on returning since there is no ticket office at our stop. You will purchase tickets then, to Princess Anne. The round trip fare is One Dollar and Fourteen Cents, whether on our train or otherwise. If you are not on our car, get the same ticket, but you will have to notify the conductor to let you off at Bratton. Defending the testimony of witnesses which had been attacked by Mr. Merrill is not agreeing in detail, the Commonwealth's attorney opened the case, now slowly and hopefully the resuscitation of Christ, all differing in detail, but agreeing in essentials. Even the inspired writers disagreed in describing an incident they witnessed, he declared, and certainly, he pointed out, that such events would occur in the course would be certain to do likewise. As to caring for the convention, meals and lodgings will be served to delegates and officers only. Relief workers will be the others. Yours for service. W. J. LUCAS, Pastor Piney Grove Bapt.

Negroes Match Phenomenal Advance For years the Negro unit of Roanoke's military base has matched this swift and sure progress stride. The fifth of Roanoke's 80,000 population is military, business, social, professional, religious, educational, and cultural is improved with civic pride and freewish activity. These progressive citizens are located in the northwest side of the city. For several powers the concentration of Negro and white powers is marked and divided by the railroad lines, just about midway through the city. A Remarkable Institution We might begin to approach Roanoke's Negro population from many angles. Here is a remarkable institution there, the Burrell, a historic African-American who seems a satisfactory starting point. It is so emblematic of the people in the nature of its work, in the quality of its architecture, in the way it is a description of Roanoke, Following Dr. W. A. Drake's letter in this paper's FORUM last week on the hospital, located in Nebowell Ave. between sixth and eighth highest point in the city, 1000 feet above sea level. Away from the smoke, the clamor, and the distractions of a city, the city and surrounding neighborhood, walled by mountains covered solidly by dark green fire. Some of the mountains, a solid concrete drive to their very heights. From the summits the city, dimpled between the towering hills, presents a marmorous whether of anti-like activity by fire or for lights of light. Fire fly! Only Accredited Nurse-Training Hospital Burrell Memorial Hospital is controlled by a board of trustees and owned by the one of Ronoke's pioneer Negro physicians. It is supported chiefly by fees from the Community Chest Fund and $600 from the city. The present building was given by the city. The current building was given it was to be for hospital use only and maintained creditably, and that a certain number of beds is reserved for city cases. It is located on Henry Street in a small frame building with ten beds. Today it has 46 beds, and is being neglected in Negro-stated hospital in the State. Dr. L. C. Downing staff physician and business manager, made the trip to the hospital and guide in the pierer. Entering the building, we went into the office on the left of the main entrance of Nurses. Miesel M. Bichern, who is in immediate charge. From here we crossed the spacious hall and were surrounded by nurses. Hanging on the walls were pictures with interesting history behind them. Four nurses were commissioned as first lieutenants in the medical corps during the War. They are: Dr. E. D. E and I. C. Downing. There was also a photo of Miss Jessean Minis, former Surge of Nurses, who was one of the first Negro nurses assigned to Camp Sherman. Complete. Up-to-Date Equipment It is now recognized that dentistry and medicine have close connections in the prevention and cure of diseases. Burrell Hospital has its own research and clinical school work. Also on the first floor are wards and private rooms, laboratory, modern laundry, receiver for the laundry chute. From here patients can go to their ourselves, to the third floor on an automatic elevator. Here are located the kitchen, dining room, store rooms, computer room, and laboratory. From here we went to the second floor. This was a revelation, even to one unacquainted with the technical angle of dentistry. We were in rooms with fine natural light and double electric light system, surgical scrub room, with lockers and what is known as surgeon's call clock. We are in a modern and expensive sterilizing room. The entire active staff is colored, but any reputable white or colored doctor may meet with the surgeon's call clock. A percent of the work now is done by colored doctors. The percentage would be larger, but the emergency cases of patients, for example, are treated by company physicians. Over Thousand Cases Last Year Last year's report shows 450 bed patients, 897 clinic patients, 1383 patients, and 138 patients treated each day on the average. In the hospital are 12 student and 2 graduate nurses, two junior, two cooks and one manager since the organization of the hospital. No salary is ever accepted by him or by physicians on stage because of lack of finances where action would be inhumane. In out-of-town charity care the professional services of the hospital downing charges being for the usual hospital fee. Dr. J. B. Claytor was physician-incharge during June.

Crowell, when confronted with a copy of the Richmond Planet of last week and seeing the many things said by former Grand Chancellor Mitchell, alleging failure of the meeting at Staunton, stated, "A Liar.

The report of the Grand Lodge through the Journal and Guide, Newport News Star, Staunton Tribune as well as the many white papers throughout the state, all of which contradict the Planet's report are sufficient evidences that the Grand Lodge of Virginia is not what the Planet charges.

How To Wash A Pillow How To Wash A Pillow One of the tasks which contri the homemaker when the house is being cleaned and put in order for the summer is the proper cleaning of the pillows. The United States Department of Agriculture the ers offers a satisfactory school is to transfer the feathers to a muslin bag two or three times the size of ticking. This may be done easily by sewing the edges of the openings of the ticking and bag together and shaking the feathers from one to the other. The feathers and the ticking are washed separately. To wash the feathers, after sewing them in the musling bag, scrub them in a weak solution of washing soda, using a good suds. If necessary this is repeated in a second suds. Rinse in two or three lukewar rinses. If an extractor type of washing machine is available, extract as much moisture as possible and then dry the feathers on a sheet in the sun. If one has no machine of this type, squeeze out as much of the excess water as possible and dry in the same way. Beat from time to time during the process. After washing the ticking, starch it on the inside with a very stiff starch mixture, applied with a sponge. This closes the pores of the material and prevents the Grand Worthy Assistant Conductress Emma Clements. Grand Worthy Herald, Mrs. C. B. Brinke. Grand Worthy Protector, Mrs. Mary Woolridge.

Ellis After devotion led by the Grand Worthy Orator, Mrs. Lizzie B. Green, the Grand Worthy Counselor instructed the Grand Worthy Inspectrix, Mrs. Margaret Burrell, to declare the Grand Court open and ready for business. After the discussion it was suggested by Mr. Thompson that the hours of sessions be changed so that the morning hours would be from 10:00 to 1:00 and the afternoon from 3:30 until as late as necessary. This suggestion was accepted. Upon roll call 70 Courts responded through delegates and 2 by telephone the first in a joint session of Lodges and Courts was held, at which time a welcome address was delivered by Hon. H. Mc K.

The ticking is then dried and refilled. The pillows themselves may be washed without removing the feathers, in much the same way as the feathers are washed when transferred to the muslin bag as described above. A slip cover between the ticking and the pillow case will prevent the ticking from becoming soiled easily and do away with unnecessary washing of the slip.

LOWNDES Christian Department of Social Work of Colored Women (National Association (Preston News Service) (Continued from last week) THE WORKING MOTHER (Continued from last week) THE WORKING MOTHER (Continued from last week) There is so much talk about the inefficiency of our Negro homes just now that I wonder if we have the "home-making" instinct. For such a long time after our introduction into civilization, in home with natural surroundings such as we saw in the class who were served, was an ideal which seemed unattainable. There was no planning for responsible parenthood, usually profitable production, mating for better breeding. Several generations of that sort of custom, was all that was necessary to eliminate impressions of a previous environment, whatever it may have been. So it will take several generations of our present environment to reestablish family standards and family responsibility. White and Colored Families Compared I know a white man and a Negro who work side by side, who receive the same remuneration, who have the same number of children. The children attend the same school. Both men, early in the game, started to buy a home, and the back lots adjoin. The wife and children have met, outside of school hours, only over this backfence; although the men have for years gone backward and forward together, when they part at the corner, they go into different realms—so far apart—that it might be a different country.

The object is: To help the Sick, Bury the Dead, Relieve the Distressed. For further information write A: W. HOLMES, Founder, and Supreme Master, No. 210 EI Clay Street, Richmond, Va. NEWS Franklin, Va.-Rev. K. Allen, pastor of the First Baptist M. Church, preached the first sermon on the way, I am the way, the truth and the life. In an effort to excite audacity in his hearers, and awareness of unwavering purpose, all lines of human endeavor, the minister remarked in part, that: "the sweetest factors in civilization and that among the most significant individuals of all times and in all lines have been those ruddy men who have been the attractive psychology in the mental atmosphere about anything that is lost. The most secure of the security of the object; but their deeper sense it is an object caged," to be lost means one's ability to be to be caged, it is disagreeable, tormenting, bewildering, battling, stifling, crushing, wounding, and learning to look up from every park where animals are kept. There is a continuous search for the exit. The caged men are prompted by ordinary physical needs such as food, drink, agreeable temperature, and activeness. The bear that promotes the floor of his cage whirling, dancing, nervously and continuously, touching the steel bars one at a time, and having all the ordinary needs above referred to, and still be very unhappy because of the tensiousness of limitations of being "Misery in a deeper sense is a consciousness of limits. We live in an age in which men are inclined to be unlimited in their knowing," thinking, believing, and acting and when these urges lead out into unbeaten paths in search for powers to be harnessed to relieve one's fellows of maladies, inconvenience, unhappiness, and uselessness. "Dissatisfaction is all one of the highest virtues of life." "The mind of men is as a caged lion. The lion would rather be irregular in his meals with a consciousness of no limits than to have the hind quarters of the cholecest meats poked through the bars by a burley keeper three times a day.

OVER SUPPLY OF COMMON LABOR IN THE NORTH Detroit, Chicago, Philadelphia, Harrisburg, Have No Open- ings For More Labor From The South New York, June 12—The Nati- onal Urban League from its na- tional headquarters in New York City has sent out the following report from its Department of Industrial Relations of which T. Arnold Hill is director. That the cities in which the largest number of Negroes live are sufficiently supplied with unskilled workers is proved by reports in our office from reliable sources of information. In most of these cities there is also generous quantity of skilled workers. In St. Louis, Chicago, and New York an unusually large number of office buildings are being erected, but union labor regulations, always noticeably effective in the building trades, serve to limit the number of colored craftsmen employed in them. The following are quoted quotations from advisors of the League's Industrial Relations Department in the industry contract. DETROIT—"What happens is that men come into the city more rapidly than the industries can absorb them. Most of those idle now are newcomers to Detroit." CHICAGO—"While there is no alarming unemployment situation, yet there is an over-supply of labor—which leads us to discourage additional Negroes coming to Chicago at this time." PHILADELPHIA—"There is a sufficiently large number of Negroes unemployed in Philadelphia without the necessity of industrial firms sending labor outscouts of other states." HARRISBURG, PA—" . . . indications are that normal conditions will prevail this summer but the upward trend will not, he of sufficient magnitude to require additional workers from outside."

BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH Bethel Baptist Church is having an increase in attendance under the leadership of Rev. R. L. Har ris and the splendid gospel and practical sermons he is preaching. The morning and evening services on last Sunday were both inspiring and instructive. The Sunday school is taking on new life under the assistance of the pastor. The entertainment given Monday night, June 28, was quite a success. The Golden Leaf Quintette from Berkley was the principal feature. MT. LEBANON BAPTIST CHURCH Services on last Sunday were excellent. The "early morning prayer meeting was filled with spiritual enthusiasm.

In the afternoon Mrs. Bannerje, a missionary from Calcutta, India, preached a sermon which was enjoyed by all present. The B. Y. P. U. met at 5:30 and rendered a very pleasing program.

Mr. Thorogood has been a watchman at the Norfolk customs house for the past 32 years. ST. MARK'S COMMUNITY CHURCH St. Mark's Community Church began services Sunday with a live and wide-awake Sunday school. The lesson was reviewed by Mr. L. R. Hall, the superintendent and remarks were made by the pastor, Rev. L. T. Watson. At the morning services Rev. Watson prized an uplifting sermon. The Union C. E. League meeting was largely attended, being conducted by its president, Mr. B. Lewis. The vice president, Mr. R. Fox, is now employed at Virginia Beach and for that reason will not be able to attend the services regularly. At night the pastor preached an inspiring sermon on "What Man of Man is This." There was quite a large attendance all day. Visitors were present from St. John, Monumental A. M. E. churches and Sixth Street A. M. E. of Berkeley. ST. PETER'S DISCIPLE CHURCH (Cor. Princess Anne RL, and Bolton St. Good services were conducted at this church all day last Sunday. At the morning service, Rev. Atkins preached an interesting sermon from the 3rd chapter of Daniel.

Whitfield, the pastor, who has just returned from Goldsboro, N. C., where he filled the pulpit for his father on the third Sunday, preached an aled sermon from Gen. 13: 12, 13 subject, "Pitching Toward -Sodom." Rev. Whitfield showed how to pitch our tent in and what horrible results follow; and what horrible results follows. He grassplains of Jordan) and Lot's losses (his whole possessions) and finally exhorted his hearers to move to the hills of Zion f rom whence comes their help. Next Sunday night is Quarterly Meeting. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH Beginning with the early sunrise prayer meeting services at the First Baptist Church were interesting and inspirational. At 1:30 in the morning Rev. D. H. I. Smith preached the 8:16 subject, "An Abomination in the Temple." This sermon was enjoyed by those who came out. At 7:30 the pastor meached from 2 Sam. 11:27, "The Sin of David." This ended the series of sermons on traitors of the Bible. The Sunday school was largely attended and lessons interesting. The B. Y. P. U. is having some very interesting topics that are being discussed, which are proving very helpful. DISCIPLES TO HOLD S. SCHOOL CONVENTION The Disciples of Christ will meet at the Star of Bethlehem Church at 130 Lewis street in a Sunday school Convention beginning Friday night before the second Sunday in July. The sermon will be preached at 8:30 Friday night. There will be special services on Saturday. Rev. L. W. Tillet is the pastor and Rev. C. Perry, associate pastor. REV. B. B. EVANS IS INSTALLED PASTOR On Sunday morning, June 27, the Rev B. B. Evans, A. B. B. D., was installed as pastor of the First United Presbyterian Church, corner of Princess Anne Road and Chapel street. The services were conducted by the retiring pastor, the Rev. Mr. White, who leaves this week to take up his work in Indianapolis, Ind. An appreciable congregation witnessed the services, which were simple and impressive. In the audience were many members of Bethany Presbyterian Church, whose services had been cut short so that they could be present at their sister or church. The altar of the church was beautifully decorated with palms and cut flowers and made a striking setting for the services. After music by the choir, Rev White presented the pastor-elect who gave the message of the morning, which was direct to the point and highly impressive. Immediately following the sermon, the installation of Rev. Evans was conducted by Rev. White. The charge to the new pastor was delivered by the Rev. M. J. Hoskins, who urged the young minister to continue to give the people the gospel in its simplicity and beauty as he had done that moring. At this time, Rev. White made the charge to the congregation. In a manner of deep seriousness and a voice ringing with sincerity, he urged the people to give their new pastor the encouragement of their presence and not to take the heart out of him by having him preach to empty benches. As an act of the mid-week prayer services one of the main points stressed. A new member was taken under the watch'care of the church. The young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John I; Selden was christened, Mrs.'Lilla Reed standing as godmother. The choir sang an anthem during the lifting of the contribution after which the services were dismissed by the Rev. Mr. Evans. Farewell Reception To Rev. and Mrs. White Members of the First United Puesbyterian Church tendered a forewell reception to Rev. D. F. White, and Mrs. White, on Monday night, at the church, corner Princess Anne Road and Chapel street. Rev. Mr. White left this week to take up pastoral work in Indianapolis, Ind. Preceding the social features of the evening there was a program of speeches and testimonials, all of which paid eloquent tributes to the high esteem in which Dr. White and his wife are held by the members of his former congregation and the citizens of Norfolk as a whole. Miss Blanche Smith presided. The program was opened by the church Rev. M. E. Davis spoke for the ministers of Norfolk-Portsmouth; Mr. C. A. Palmer for citizens; Prof. J. Riley Dungue read an original poem dedicated to the outgoing and in-coming pastors; Mr. J. E. Digg's spoke for the congregation; Mrs. Ida W. Bagnall and Dr. S. F. Coppage for the Norfolk Mission. College alumni, Mrs. P. B. Young for the city federation of women's clubs and Mr. Harvey Robinson for the church where visibly affected by the touching tributes paid them, in words, flowers and tokens, and the pastor responded in a brief address.

A. for some time before her marriage. The wife of the Negro had gone to the second year of High School became discouraged and stopped as soon as she could secure a working certificate. Neither of the women had any unusual educational qualification for the job of home-making. Both had been married early. The children had come along early, so that the parents were fairly young when the Social Worker made their acquaintance through a complaint of the eleven year old son of the Negro family which brought them into the notice of the court. The white family are, perhaps, what we would scornfully refer to as "poor white" but they sit down to a well-cooked meal, three times a day. The mother does not belong to anything outside of the church except the Maceabees—goes to a movie once in an awhile, cooks a cooking without complaint, as her natural job. Her children have gone to work much too early to cut any wide swath in the economic situation; but as far as the parents have been able they have met their family responsibilities and come to no public want of attention.

Program We can admire President Coolidge for the consistency with which he sticks to his economy program in administering the affairs of the nation, and thus curbing the tendency to extravagant. If not profligate expenditures, both as a nation and as individuals; a tendency which appears to grow more evident as the ration grows in prosperity and strength. In his address to the business organization of the government, at Washington, on "Constructive Economy," President Coolidge declared that the surplus estimate for June 30, stood at $990,000,000 and that the public debt has been reduced to $19,680,000,000. This is a notable showing and must be highly gratifying to every citizen. But the President warned that "we cannot anticipate, further appreciable reduction in the total annual expenditures for the business of the government; our main chance comes in debt reduction." The President pointed out that while there has been steady retrenchment in federal expenditures and reduction of the public debt there has been a steady increase in the indebtedness of the states and their counties and municipalities, which constitutes a cruising obligation on local taxpayers. He thinks that there is cause for great concern in this situation, which is fraught with grave consequences to the public welfare, and in this view of the matter the taxpayers of state, county, and municipality will heartily agree. Economy in the administration of the public business is just as necessary and urgent as in personal business. Bishop Gregg Declines Howard Presidency Disappointments are among the most common things in human life. There is no certainty about anything whatsoever. Even when a thing ceases to be such and becomes a fact something is possible to happen to make it a doubtful thing again. Perhaps it helps to make the spice of life; it certainly helps in a large way to make for confusion. Last week we were rejoicing over the fact that the trustees of Howard University, for the first time in the history of the institution, had unanimously elected Bishop John A. Gregg, of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, to be president. The long fight for just that thing had ended in the selection of a great, good and acceptable man of the race to be president of our great university, and there was general rejoicing. The thing appeared to be an accomplished fact. What, then? An Associated dispatch, dated at Washington, June 12, announced that Bishop Gregg had declined to accept the high honor. It appears that it was found that the separation of the bishop from his parochial work was beyond the jurisdiction of the Board of Bishops of his Church. That is to say, the Bishop could not accept the presidency of Howard University without separating himself from the bishopric, and he deemed it best to stick to the latter. Who will question his judgment? The Bishop of the Church is a higher and more independent position than the presidency of any school, and is a life position unpermeed by the rules and regulations of trustee boards. We have other capable and experienced educators and it is to be hoped that the trustee board of Howard University will be able and willing to elect one of them to the high position of president. The Afro-American people expect that much of them. Greatest Church Congress in History Greatest Church Congress in History While the Protestant denominations, which are many, throughout the world, are squabbling over church doctrine and jeopardizing the high interests at stake by discouraging the membership and detracting from the interest the younger people should take in the vital and saving work of the Protestant Church as a whole, the Holy Catholic Church presents a united front in doctrine and administration and wields an overmastering influence on that account in the affairs of mankind. During the past week the largest Church Congress in the history of the world gathered at Chicago in the twenty-eighth International Eucharistic Congress, of the Holy Catholic Church. It is estimated that 13 Cardinals, 500 Bishops, 5,000 priests from the remotest corners of the earth, and 17,000 nuns, with more than a million layman, took part in the Congress, which is declared to have been one of the most ostentatious, gorgeous and colorful imaginable. Everything was done on a royal scale of magnificence and calendar. As the Special Pullman Red Train swept through the nation from New York to Chicago it was met at the stopping places by throngs of people, so that the reception took on all of the appearances of a royal greeting. Cardinal Bongao seated on his throne, as the emissary of the Pope, in Chicago, with a million people acclaiming him, smacked of all the pomp and pageantry of royalty. The Catholic Congress was an object lesson to those Americans who believe that the Catholic Hierarchy is a menace to Protestant domination in national affairs. It was also an object lesson to the leaders of Protestant denominations, which are divided in their creeds and in their numbers, so that they cannot present a solid front in numbers or a common system of belief, and it should teach them to get, together, unify their forces, and to harmonize their many creeds. Why? Because it is claimed that the Catholic Church is gaining in strength and influence, because of its unification, throughout the world, while the Protestant denominations are gradually losing in membership and in strength and influence. Senator Borah And The Amendments Senator William E. Borah is, concededly, one of the ablest men in pubic life. Much of his influence has been wasted because he will not accept the restraints of a partisan and is too radical in his general tendencies to adhere to any party program. This compels him to flock by himself most of the time, with a forlorn hope on his hands and the distrust of those without whose confidence and cooperation he can accomplish no lasting thing in legislation. He serves a good purpose, we are sure, in stirring up the dry bones of thought and disturbing the regular currents of Senate debates. Senator Borah did the unexpected recently in lining up with the friends of the eighteenth amendment and the Volstead act, and drew on his head some very severe blows by those who take the opposite view. In explaining his position, in an address at the annual commencement of the National Law School, in Washington, recently, he made it plain that he did not consider the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments as nullified because they are not enforced in all of the states, and that if they were, that would be no argument for the nullification of the eighteenth amendment. He thought that the South had solved the franchise as best it could, while we think it has solved it as worst it could. He then made the following statement: "As.for myself, I think that the enbranchishment of the slaves at the time it was brought about was one of the greatest mistakes ever made in this country. That statement may be of interest to those who say that I seek the Presidency because I espouse the eighteenth amendment." Senator Borah does not know it all. For that much let us be thankful. As an offseason to his view of the matter, it is safe to say that if the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments had not been adopted at the time the were, when the public opinion of the country was in a humor to expect that the issues of the war should so be clinched by the enfranchisement as well as the emancipation of the slaves, the Negroes would have been reduced to a permanent condition of serfdom and peonage. The occult powers that shaped the issues of the civil war as well as the issues growing out of it made no mistake in giving the Negro the ballot with this freedom. Freedom without the ball is not worth a great deal to any American citizen. We know this to be true by the lawless course which legislation and public opinion in the Southern states has taken and maintains until this day, and which we are sure will not always be so.

The Political Clouds Grow Darker The political fortunes of the Afro-American citizens were never lower and darker since the Civil War than at this time. We have no standing whatever in the Republica The political fortunes of the Afro-American citizens were never lower and darker since the Civil War than at this time. We have no standing whatever in the Republican party and we never had any in the Democratic party, and we have no political organization of our own to command the respect of other party organizations. We have no representation in the federal congress and little in the state legislatures; we have very few officials among the administrative appointments, and the large number of positions we hold in the civil service is due almost entirely to the competitive examination system—which would indicate that if all the other offices were deduced to competition we would secure more than our proportionate share of them. Where we have a fair field we make good. That is a hopeful sign. It is not to be marveled at that Judge Moorfield Storey, of Boston, the venerable president of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in his address, was moved to say that "For Negroes in America there are no Republicans and no Democrats—only friends and opponents." Only a few days before Senator Borah, a Republican, of Idaho, justified the methods by which Afro-Americans had been disfranchised by the Southern Democrats, with the declaration that the "emancipation of the slaves at the time it was done and under the circumstances was one of the greatest mistakes ever made in this country." And then Senator Edwards, of New Jersey, Democrat, quite agreed with Senator Borah and insisted that it was a waste of time and money for an honest government to attempt to maintain such constitutional amendments as the Fourteenth and Eighteenth. Senator Edwards has 'em bad, as the saying is, and Senator Borah is in almost as bad way. The Supreme Court of the United States holds that the laws of the Southern states governing registration and voting do not disfranchise the Afro-American citizen, as those laws are supposed to bear alike upon black and white voters. Even here in Virginia the Negro can vote if he will take the trouble to qualify to do so. His right to do so is not nullified. In the North and West, and especially in New Jersey, the Negro votes and has his vote counted on absolute equality with Senator Edwards. The disadvantages which now hedge about the citizenship of the Afro-American citizen are bound to grow less and less and finally disappear with the coming and the going of the years. The main thing is to prevent any tampering with the Civil War amendments, such as reduction of representation in Congress because of alleged discrimination, thus giving the states the right to disfranchise a part of its citizenship by neliquishing a portion of its representation in Congress. It is our business to hold fast what we have and to fight constantly and courageously for more enjoyment of the guarantees we have in the federal constitution, which none of the states can "deny or abridge." THE GUIDE POST BY RICHARD H. BOWLING Does Bootlegging Pay? To hear some people talk about how much liquor is being sold, of how drinking is on the increase and of how much liquor brings, one would almost be persuaded that bootlegging was a profitable business. To back up such an impression there are the occasional stories of bootleggers, when apprehended, being able to provide their own cash bonds to the amount of five hundred to five thousand dollars. Who has not heard of such men having whole pillowcases of ever? And the in the game w banks his eno But does he is dead sure, raise five the dollars cash, could scarely go, much less lous sums.

And there is the other shrewd fellow in the game who operates in one city andanks his enormous gains in another. But does bootlegging pay? One thing is dead sure, not every bootleger could raise five thousand or even five hundred dollars cash. The vast majority of them would scarcely raise railroad fare to Chicago, much less write their checks for fabulous sums. Another thing is sure, not every bootleger is able to own a good car and how many bootlegers live in credible homes? To be creditable, a well-to-man's home ought to be tastefully furnished, have the latest conveniences and comforts, and be devoted to relaxation and peace. Here my thought takes a leap further. Profit from a business can not be gauged entirely in terms of dollars or of the things which dollars will buy. Business is a spiritual enterprise. A business, therefore, has moral and social effects as well as effects financial. Success in business is not merely good or bad in proportion to the quantity of money handled, but in proportion also to the happiness or hurt occasion to the proprietor. Why then call bootlegging a paying business when to engage in it a man must be forever conscious of being a lawreaker and a religious outcast? The officers of the law, city, county, state and federal are, forever on his trail. No church extends him a welcome, unless it be with the understanding and at the same time without compunction the Bible's inhibitions against strong drink and against putting tumbling blocks in weaker brethren's way? Doubt if there be one bootleger in ten thousand who enjoys a daily period of devotion, when with prayer and open Bible he seeks the fellowship of God. He may send his children to church and pay dues for himself and his wife; but I doubt seriously that he himself ever darkens the church's doors. And then think of a man's reputation inears. Who would like to have his children and grandchildren made ashamed by history's references to him as having been an illicit dealer in liquors? Why, men have been ashamed of having descended from law-conditioned saloon keepers. Why would they not be ashamed of descent from who one sold the same stuff in defiance not merely of recent public opinion but of the law? Does bootlegging pay? Show me an honest-to-gooodness bootleger with no misvings as to, the future of his children should they elect to follow in his steps, with no qualms of conscience, no fear of public opinion, no hesitancy to talk sincerely about the joys of private worship—show me such man. When I behold him I shall be looking at both a bootleger who makes it pay and the biggest hypocrite that ever drew breath. But does bootlegging pay?

In a great majority, he has no voice in the government, and despite the absence of those occasions for animosity that were forced upon the races in the Southern states, the Negro in South Africa seems destitute of friends. In late years he has crowded into the towns and begun to learn the trades and become a competitor of white laborers of the better class. This advance has been abruptly halted by the passage of a measure forbidding the native of the privilege of acquiring the trade of a mechanic or other skilled workman. As Negro labor is in demand in mines and on great plantations owned by whites, there has been opposition to his playing the part of farmer and cultivating his own land, and the denial of his right to become a skilled workman is defended on the ground that he will now be given greater rights as a farmer. But that is a promise while his denial of is on the increase and of how much liquor brings, one would almost be persuaded that bootlegging was a profitable business. To back up such an impression there are the occasional stories of bootleggers, when apprehended, being able to provide their own cash bonds to the amount of five hundred to five thousand dollars. Who has not heard of such men having whole a standing as an artisan is a fact. Will the promise be redeemed? If he is cut-off from living in towns except as a laborer in the most menial walks, and denied the standing of an independent farmer in the country, his practical status would be that of the lower order of serf. There would be no ladder for him to climb. And that land was his; Africa was his country. THE FORUM Readers of the Journal and Guide are invited to express their opinions upon the contents of this column. Articles should be brief and to the point, not exaggerated, and the publishers do not assume responsibility for the views herein expressed. Editor Journal and Guide: I am greatly impressed with the way and manner in which Rev. D. F. White considered, resigned and left his old charge and accepted his new one. On receiving the call, without publishing it in the newspapers or otherwise, he took it as a matter to be settled between God and himself. If God said go, that he would do regardless of persuasion or increase of salary, or any other inducement, it was God that was leading him and not man. That is a God-called man. And then the spirit and condition in which he left his work, everything rounded up and in good condition that, his successor might come in, who was chosen by the congregation and installed by the ex-pastor before leaving that the work might go on without a hitch in God's name. It was not his desire that the congregation go for a season without a shepherd, lamenting his departure, but it was his request for the congregation forget his leadership and follow his successor. Rev. Mr. White is leaving Norfolk with a clean record as any one could do who lived a clean life. Always kind, humble in spirit, ready to serve and especially to those who were needy. It was not the big crowds that seemed to be his desires, but the giving of real service. Would to God that we had thousands of such ministers. We lament greatly the going of Rev. White and his good wife of whom the same can be said in like manner, but we realize the great gain of his new field. We wish for them God's blessings. MRS. M. B. LEE BookChat "CINCINNATTS COLORED CITIZENS." By W. P. Dabney. Published by The Dubney Publishing Co. 412 McAllister State Cincinnati, Ohio. Price $3.28 postpaid. This book of 440 pages is a strange conglomeration of all sorts of material. There are extracts from magazines and newspapers on various subjects relating to the Cincinnati Negro, there are hundreds of biographical sketches, there are accounts of churches and fraternal organizations. Some of this is in small type and some in large. There are pages of short items such as: "The first Interracial Conference took place here this year" (no date), or "Dr. L. A. Cornish achiever distinction as a physician, acquiring valuable property and last year returned with his wife to Washington, the city of his birth." (No date.) It ends with pages and pages of names of colored citizens, arranged alphabetically, without addresses, but placed under headings of city sections as "East End," "Walnut," etc. And the book possible to find any particular possible to find and particular item without going through the whole volume. Why Mr. Dabney did not write a real book is hard to understand as when he does write, especially in the historical section of the book, he is always interesting. His account of the settling of the city is good, and some of his sketches of individuals are excellently done. There is an illuminating chapter on the Negro in politics. But he only writes for a little time. Very shortly there will come, "From the Union," we have the following extract" or "we read in The Crisis." One quotation is by Lacadio Hearn and we are grateful to have it saved for us. It concerns "Bucktown" and was written by Hearn in the Commercial Gazette in the seventies. It is a vivid picture of a terrible slum. Mr. Dahney has some extremely interesting things to say regarding misegement. It will not be new to colored people but it will certainly be new to many whites. From his account he did something to educate Mr. Schmidlapp and others. With all this material, one wishes that Mr. Dahney had made a worthy study such as has been made of the colored people in Philadelphia, Boston and New York. Judging from my own experiences with my New York study, however, I suspect that in compiling a sort of colored encyclopedia and Blue Book for TURN THE MULE AROUND, MR. BORAH 18TH AMENDMENT 14 AND 15 AMENDMENTS T. S. Stribling, author of "Teefallow," reviews Prof. Edwin Mims' book, "The Advancing South," (Doubleday, Page and Co.), in the New York Sun under the caption, "The Not Stationary South," Mr. Stribling feeling that the book he reviewed has too euphemistic a title—in the following interesting manner: "In the fact of the Dayton episode Prof. Mims calls his study of Southern conditions "The Advancing South." He justifies his title richly in those essays describing the commercial and industrial progress of the old South. In fact, any one who has trekked to Florida and tried to purchase an estate of a sandwich will agree with him hands down. But in regard to the spiritual South, the religious South, the political South, the academic South, his own text condemns his optimism. "The book, read as a whole, gives a curious impression of a heavy, sluggish, reactionary mass being hauled at vigorously, but perhaps ineffectively, by a few grains of yeast. Eventually, of course, it will be leavened, but the rate hardly warrants so euphemistic a title as "The Advancing South." Now if he had said, The Not Stationary South—even glaciers move. "As an interesting slant at Prof. Mima' book take his summing up of public opinion in the South. He estimates the actual fundamentalist opinion in the various churches of the South ranges from 60 per cent to 99 per cent. He agrees that the South resents all outside criticism. He gives an example of a leading newspaper which took no stand on the anti-evolution bill when it was before the Tennessee legislature but which published an editorial bitterly resembling the New York World's Cincinnati, he has taken the step most likely to bring him some return commensurate to his work. —MARY WHITE OVINGTON Collection of Negro Books The Newark Public Library is showing during the months of June and July, a collection of books, pamphlets, pictures and playbills illustrating the Negro's contribution to American culture. Most of the material shown has been lent for the purpose by Eugene Gregory, Newark lawyer. Among the exhibits are editions of the poems of Phyllis Wheatley including a poem in her own handwriting, manuscripts of the poems of Paul Lawrence Dunbar, books, letters and autographs of Frederick Douglass, and many biographies, pamphlets and letters from slavery and Civil War days. Among contemporary colored writers represented in the exhibition are Matthew Henson, the late Booker T. Washington, Countee Cullen, Langton Hughes, Claude McKay, Jessie Fauset, Walter White, W. E. B. DuBois, Jean Toomer, and James Weldon Johnson. A feature of the exhibition are signed state papers of the Haitian liberator, Touissaint L'Overture. To Have London Publication Walter White's second novel, "Flight" is to be published in London by Williams and Norgate, it was announced today. This is the same firm which undertook the English rights of the first novel, "The Fire In The denunciation of the law. From these grounds Prof. Mims seems to intimate a softening of outside criticism would be helpful. Some Amusing Stories "We may be attributing this sentiment to the author quite unjustly, for he nowhere actually says so in so many words, but if it be true we feel the plea is hopeless and the attitude false. To the critic the South is simply an intellectual problem and personally to us it is one of the most colorful and amusing places in the world. Instead of being inclined to stay the pen of the critic for fear he would "set" the color of the South, we would hold his hand lest he change it. Only, of course, we know that criticism is as much a function of the social body as eating and sleeping and bootlegging, and all of these grave matters must carry on even if the South become as arid and dull a spectacle as the North and the West. "One of the most amusing stories in "The Advancing South" was a digging up of the lawsuit in which the Southern Methodist Church tried to get Vanderbilt University. The Methodist Church entered suit before the Supreme Court of Tennessee to be given complete control of Vanderbilt University because they had founded it and supported it. "The proof showed that the university was an institution worth about $14,000,000 and that the church had paid only $18,000 of the original subscription, had contributed nothing at all to its upkeep and had only donated special funds to be used in the biblical department. "Another very interesting point was a poulice suggested to resuscitate the morbund politics in the South. In Virginia only 13.4 per cent of the potential vote actually casts a ballot at Flint." "Flight" has already received extensive notices in the London Times and other English newspapers. The Poet's Corner Smiles the world is needing you, To carry us on the long day through, So when we see you in our way, We count on a brighter day. Smiles are counted as jewels rare, With these jewels you can't compare, For one of them has much light, Twill make the tiniest heart delight. Smiles will lighten many a heart, In which pain and sorrow dart, For these smiles are so divine, They will make our lives aubine. Smile each hour of the day, And don't let your smile decay, For one smile will gain another, And travel till life meets a brother. There are smiles that are good and bad, There are home worse to be had, But the smile that should with you stay, In the smile full of joy and gay. So turn not the smiles away, But grasp them day by day, And when you have become smart, Pour them out in some other heart. AMERICAN MOTOR CAMPS Throughout the United States there are now 5,862 camp sites for motorists. California leads with 996, with Colorado second with 275. Of these camp sites are in towns, 1,000 in National Forests and 300 in National parks. In addition, there are thousands of places where free camp sites are provided by private business concerns, which are not equipped and of which no record is made. the polls. And that 13.4 percent is tied to the uniform and stultifying program of "the solid South." As Prof. Mims points out, the political programs of the "solid South" are all prearranged for them; they have no thinking to do and, so naturally, they quit thinking politically. "The question was, what could be done to revive the patient. It was Mr. Fairfax Harrison's plan to cut the Democratic party of Virginia cleanly in two, make two parties of it, in order to develop the mutual criticism and rivalry that keeps any body of voters in political health, but they were on no account to mingle with the Republican party and so endanger the solid South and white supremacy. "This sounds very much as if a leg should decide to cut itself off from a man's anatomy and set up a circulatory and respiratory system of its own. The hope of an intraparty division to bring back political health and to reinstate Virginia to that great eminence she once occupied in the political affairs of American life, shows to what amazing struts the patient is reduced. "The Scopes trial at Dayton, Penn., was a frontal attack of the Southern religious reactionists which brought them to the notice of the nation. But they had assaulted various smaller citadels before that with more or less success. They did succeed in getting a professor discharged from the University of Tennessee for recommending a book on evolution to be read by his undergraduates. Mr. Mims records an interesting attack on the University of North Carolina from the same source. This humiliy was repulsed. "However, Prof. Mims notes a northward drift of scholars thinkers and intellectuals from the South owing to the unharmonious surroundings in their own country. . This is perhaps the most melancholy fact which "The Advancing South" records. Any newspaper reader knows that there is a strong northward drift of the best Negro element in the South, but if there is a white element, even if it is so small as to be barely discernible that is unpleasant to contemplate. The Negro Drift "There is, of course, a reciprical drift from North to South but this is usually industrial and speculative. The anti-evolutionist, the K. K. K., the Solid South, will not only account this fair exchange but a distinct bargain; but there are a group in the South to whom the exchange will appear depressing and costly. Of these Prof. Mims is one. "The basic cause of the South's isolation and its probable cure the author of "The Advancing South" does not touch at all, although one of his chapters is entitled "The Ebbing Tide of Color." Even with so suggestive a phrase before him the author does not go into the logic of the northward drift of Ngroes from the South. Such an exodus of labor must mean eventually the infux of foreign labor in the South, the cosmopolitanizing of the centers of population in the South just as has been done in the North, and with that change the quaint religious and political survivals of the South will be no more. Faecious Northern editors will be hard put to it to find a stopgap for the place of that canned folk. They will attend the funeral in "genuine mourning, and write upon the tomb: "Alas poor Yorick * * he was a fellow of infinite jest."
