FOLLAW THE GUIDE - In Leo's to PROGRESS O.OOO MARCH IN BIG SUNDAY SCHOOLGROUP Army Of Religious Workers Make Awe Inspiring Scene Approximately 3,000 persons, including hundreds of mere tots, marched under the "Banner of the King," as their banners and streamers proclaimed it, in the annual Sunday school parade Sunday under auspices of the Tidewater Interdenominational Sunday School Council. Music was furnished by the Excelsior and the Premier Military bands. The parade was led by two moorcycle policemen, followed immediately by the officers of the Sunday School Council, Walter, Wiley Solden, M. E. Diggs and Chester Robinson. Next in came the Excelsior Brass and Red band, followed by the Metropolitan A. M. E. Zion Sunday school, then Bank Street Baptist, and First Baptist. Following this contingent and it leading a large section of the crowd was Premier Military band, immediately following came Shield Baptist Sunday school, then Paul C. M. E., Queen Street Baptist, F. S. Reformed Zion Union, Mr. Lebanon Baptist and Second Calvary. Behind the marchers, came several boats carrying Sunday school officers and a number of the small children, besides special Sunday school groups. A long line of monolithic carrying other church people brought up the rear. The banners, placards and streamers carried in the parade such inscriptions as "Stand unproved Unto God," "In the Master's Service," thus presenting a most inspiring spectacle. The elevated floats added to this impressiveness. During the year there have been parades that stirred the patriotism, parades that aroused civic pride, but it can be truthfully said there has not been seen a parade here in the past eleven months that a deeply touched that part of man related to his spiritual being. It was a reverent sight, except probably to the most calloused-souled individual. Thousands of small children, apparently, were following in the way they should go. The young women of the Dorcas Class of the First Baptist Church presented a particularly charming appearance, as did the members of the David King Bible Class of the same church and of the Drakes Bible Class of St. Paul C. M. or Mt. Lebanon Baptist, the pastor not being certain which were other groups that attained special attention. RABMEN CATCH 150-POUNDER RABMEN CATCH 150-POUNDER Filip and Johnny Banks, crabber of Hampton, had the thrill of living in one of the biggest hauls of their lives from the waters of the Hampton Roads, Wednesday morning. The haul was taken in notch nuts or other paraphernalis generally used in taking the prehensions. In fact this fellow ingrusted around 150 pounds. He was so large that the Banks Brothers had to lay hands on him and pull to get him aboard their boat. He made absolutely no attempt to resist being taken from his watery retreat nor did he even claw at the crahmers. His name was Jose Rojo, a spanish seaman, who with Cunty Gregorio and Salvatore Bine,ians, in an effort to desert had draped from the Italian steamer skibba into the waters of the roads several hours earlier. Blue with exposure, Rojo was fitted up just outside the usual area of the Nwport News-Pine ferry. Under orders of United States Deputy Marshall, who was aboard the ferry to Newport News and turned over to the authorities who put the city jail. he been pick: r up the seaman, Rojo wore only a shirt. He had a small pack of clothes strapped to his skin. Around his body was a life interpreter, but it had been poorly distressed, causing it to come up after his armpits and making it finally impossible for him to grow. His appearance indicated had been in the water for sev- Norfolk Journal and Guide Entered as Second Class Matter at the Post Office at Norfolk, Virginia. Heart Stopped Tw Heart Stopped Twenty Minutes, Lives THE BEST HOME FOR A CHILD ADMITS HER OPINION OF NEGRO VARIED Young White Woman Of Tennessee Sees New Light Chicago, Oct. 4—Realizing the need of a better understanding between the Negro and white races, and believing that a lack of understanding is responsible for much of the prejudice and friction that exists between the races, colored and white students in the South are now entering into the study of interracial problems with much enthusiasm and zeal. The movement had its genesis in the Student Volunteer Convention at Indianapolis in 1923 and has now spread thru the states of Tennessee, Virginia, Alabama Georgia and Louisiana. The working plan encouches interracial meetings among the students, at which problems are discussed with frankness and candor. To promote a better understanding between the two groups, and to affect a changed attitude toward the Negro, on the part of the whites, much time last year was devoted to the study of the history of the Negro in America and of his contributions to the development of this country. That this method was effective is evidenced by the following testimonial of a white co-ed in a Tennessee institution: "Until last August (1925) my only contacts with Negroes had been those one makes in a small town with the ignorant, illiterate, happy-go-lucky 'darkiks', . . . and my attitude was formed accordingly. To be fair, I must say that there was in my town a class of white people on the same level with the Negroes and toward whom I felt much the same. The difference was this: Well, I did not dream of judging all white people by this same unfortunate class, I did tend to so limit my judgment of Negro people. The actual change has come about this year largely through friendships formed in our Commission, through the fellowship experienced at the Tennessee Christian Student Conference at Chattanooga, and through the discoveries made in reading things written by Negroes. To be able to claim friendship with a colored girl has introduced the personal element into all my thinking on matters of race. And this has meant that where once was in difference is now an eagerness to know, where once was condescending kindness is now sympathetic understanding, and where once was a sense of superiority is now a feeling of kinship. oral hours. When Rojo spied the crambian's boat and even the ferry coming his way, he made no attempt to hail either for assistance. He seemed so badly to want to make this country his home that he was willing to take a chance on floating to some one of its shores. The other two men have not as located. --- enty Minutes, Lives HOLDS DUDLEY SLAYER TO THE GRAND JURY Policeman Davis Sits Mute While Coroner Hears Evidence Washington, D. C., Oct. 7.—A coroner juries Tuesday ordered Policenice George S. Davis, 36 years old, held for the action of the grand jury for the killing of Mrs. Desdemona Barnett Dudley, 32, wife of Shyrian H. Dudley, on September 21, last. The jury found that Mrs. Dudley came to her death en route to Emergency Hospital from a gunshot wound of the heart, hemorrhage and shock, the wound being caused by the dying of a gun held in the hands of Davis. Story of Shooting STORY OF SCHOOL Mrs. Dudley was shot to death about 10:50 o'clock in the morning, in apartment No. 6 of the Dudley apartments, 1816 U street, northwest, which had been occupied by Mr. Dudley while he and his wife were separated. Davis sought to prevent a reconciliation between Mrs. Dudley and his husband and by whom he had been named as the co-respondent in a divorce case. The three principal witnesses at the inquest Tursday were Captain Robert E. Doyle, commanding No. 5 precinct police station; James Wright, 431 L street, northwest, and Frank C. Anderson, 1223 Seventh street, northwest. The latter two were eye-witnesses to the tragedy. They were delivering a trunk to Mrs. Dudley at the time. At the inquest Tuesday, Davis was dressed in civilian clothes. He wore a black pin-striped suit and a freshly laundered shirt. His head was bandaged. On the right side near the wound the bandage was slightly bloody. His right eye lids were completely closed and greatly swollen. He appeared to be a little weak. He did not take the witness stand. He sat calmly throughout the inquest. He was represented by Attorney Joseph D. Kelly, who appeared for Attorney Bortrand Emerson. The government was represented by Assistant United States Attorneys Walter M. Shea and John M. Littlepage. Attorney Benjamin L. Gaskins represented Mr. Dudley. sented J.R. Dawson Davis was committed to jail without bail to await action of the grand jury. Another Colored Fire Company Sipee the Journal and Guide published an article some weeks ago mentioning the colored fire company at Atlantic City, N. J., information concerning several other groups of Negro fire fighters in the employ of cities has bobbed "I wish to inform you of our colored fire company, consisting of members of our race from captain down," says a letter to the Journal and Guide from Washington, D.C. This correspondent says the colored company is rated as one of the finest in that city. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1926 HEART BEATS AFTER A 20-MINUTES STOP HEART BEATS AFTER A 20-MINUTES STOP New Drug Practically Restores Life To Stab Victim Though he is already near the allotted three-score and ten years, Alfred Rhodes, whose hair has almost turned completely grey from the passing of the winters, will in all probability witness many more snow-falls, for one thing certain, his heart is strong. Two weeks ago, September 26, to be exact, that organ stopped beating in his body for at least 20 minutes as a result of a stab wound, yet he not only still lives, but is coming on fine, as the doctors and nurses say. Rhodes who is 65 years of age, was carried to St. Vincent's hospital at 1:45 September 26, after having received several stab wounds in a fight. In one place the knife entered the left breast and almost pinioned the heart, entering some of the tissues around it, Dr. W. N. Engler, of the emergency ward, said. For at least 20 minutes the heart did not beat. The man was breathing slightly, said the doctor, but to all appearances was dead. The breathing was so faint, stated Dr. Engler, that it could scarcely be discerned that there remained breath in the body. The heart pulsations could not be recorded, there apparently being none. The doctor looked at the patient and told the nurse that it was a case for the coroner. Any sort of treatment was considered a useless effort to save the man's life. Administered Drugs There was another man in the ward needing the doctor's immediate attention. This man had got cut in the same fractures in which Rhodes received his injuries and was brought in with him. His condition appeared less serious. The doctor started to turn to him, considering that Rhodes was just about already dead. But before leaving the old man, the physician decided to take the one slender chance at saving him and injected adrenalin and atrophin into his heart. The doctor turned to the aid of the other man, leaving Rhodes, as he thought for the undertaker. The physician said while treating the other patient, he glanced over at the old man and to his amazement noticed that the eyes had taken on a sparkle, the stare had gone, warmth had re- (Continued on Page Eight) New Head Of Virginia Elks MR. W. F. SHIVERS, of Smithfield, has been elevated to the presidency of the Virginia State Association of Elks, by reason of the death of its former President, Mr. Madison S. Lowry, of Phoebus, which occurred September 25. Mr. Shivers, is perhaps the largest and most successful wholesale and retail merchandise, meat, and fish broker among our group in the state, and enjoys a national prominence as a business man, churchman and fraternalist. He has held the position of vice president of the association since its organization and the success and prestige the association has attained during its comparatively brief existence is due largely to his influence and loyal support. Mr. Shivers is quiet, modest and unassuming in manner, but a tireless and energetic worker. He is recognized as a wise and honest leader and the Elks of the state are looking forward to much progress under his administration.

Improved PluKo Wins Again "I was terribly discouraged about my hair when I started using Improved Pluko Hair Dressing," says Miss Luela Wells. "But I had only been using this preparation a few days until my hair became smoother and glossier. This encouraged me so much. I kept right on using it and now I have an abundance of long, straight hair which I can arrange in any manner I wish." Improved Pluko Hair Dressing is fairly taking the country by storm as more and more men and women, like Miss Wells, are finding how easy and pleasant it is to use this delicately fragranced preparation which melts at the temperature of the scalp; soothing the itching of dandruff and quickly doing away with this trouble; making the hair soft, and glossy and easily arranged; and stimulating its growth, so it soon becomes long, straight and abundant.

Nolary Public X A. € PICKS PRETIY TOUGH FE FOR INITIAL GAME HERE MONDAY Norfolk Athletic Club has picked a strong foe in the Tigers, of Elizabeth City, N. C., to begin its first game of the season here at League Park Monday. The mettle of the squad will be tested at the beginning, because the visitors are expected to put up a stiff argument on the local lot with the home boys. But the team is shaping up nicely to meet the hardest onslaught of the Carolinians and will give them something to think about during the entire four quarters of play. The Tigers have kept mum dur- ing their preparation for this game in order to fool Norfolk A. C. when they journey here Monday. But the reports have leaked out, like most things do and Dr. Coppage, togzther “with Gay and Layton, have been working hard to have everything in readiness to mect the best the Tigers have to offer in the line of football. The three nightly. practices a week have been increased to every night this week, in order to put in enough work to have the machine well oiled and lubricated to stand the test. Tigers Strong | Reports come in that the Tigers ‘cannot be taken lightly, as they, rave ‘one of the strongest asem- ‘blage of football players in the| Old North State. It ean be seen| that it is easily possibl2 for the Elizabeth City Tigers to have a worth while squad. Everyone knows that nearly every nook and corner in North Carolina boasts of some kind of school that send forth cach year, football teams that hold their own against some: of the best in the game and it has been stated that the Tiger clan is composed of some of the stars that performed in collegiate and’ preparatory games. “North Carolina has afforded a wealth of football material and there are few lads there that do not and have not played the game to no little extent, For this rea- sons, the Tigers have nothing to do but have one of the strongest possible aggregations.

Kirkland of Philadelphia will arrive in the city this coming Monday to conduct a series of evangelical meetings at the First Baptist Church on Butte Street. His services have been secured by the local church after a two-year effort and many repeat invitations. Besides his many official positions in his demission and his intense interest in Fortress Missions, he is pastor of the largest clored Baptist church in the country. It is expected that his church will not only twice as many as the First Baptist Church and that it is nevertheless crowded both morning and night every Sunday. This is the church with which such celebrities are connected as Marian Anderson, contralto singer, Vich Hill, celestion soprano, J. C. A. Arburs, cx-member Pennsylvania Legislature, Mrs. Alice Tucker, president Pennsylvania Woman's State Convention, etc. Under Rev. Mr. Kirkland's leadership the Union Church has given as much as eighteen hundred dollars to foreign missions in one year. A part of his church monthly contribution to this work goes for the support of Miss Sarah G. Williamson, young Norfolk girl who is doing missionary work in Liberia, Africa. Union has a city social work church based on all-the-west program. Its weekly offerings average well over five hundred dollars. Like his widen and enhancestic church, Dr. Kirkland is a whole-souled man and an enthusiastic preacher. Conversions occur at almost each service in his great church. As an evangelist and an ordained preacher in the Pennsylvania or in the National Baptist Convention is more sought after than he. The Kirkland meetings will begin at eight o'clock each night, beginning with this Monday, October 11, and ending Friday, October 22. Special music will be furnished each night. The services will be short, opening and closing on time. the pageant. More than fifty people were included in the cast. Among them was Mrs. Eliza B. Clark of the Bank Street Baptist Church who took the role of revener worker in one of the closing scenes.

Sunday morning, Jones is a member of the United Freshberyian Church and principal of the Lott Carey Baby School. She was speaking on a Citizen's View of First Baptist Church." The occasion was the church's annual home-coming celebration. Continuing she said, "This church with its free employment bureau and its home on the agad is an outstanding example of a church that touches community life in a vitay way." "She was along this same line that R. J. Mathews spoke in presenting "A Volunteer Writer's of First Baptist." This person has for several years volunteered his services 10 years in theurging home. His speech, like that of H. H. L. Clakw, likened "A Member's View," who answered "A Member's View," was delivered with much feeling and an enthusiastic response. Pageant Crowds Church The pageant service at night was one of the most largely attended light services held in months, people began gathering two hours before opening time. By seventy-fourly every seat was taken and people were standing. True to expectations many were the surprises offered. In illustration of how comforts added to home happiness two rooms were shown with a modern housewife at work, the curtains opened there were revealed a washing machine, an electric iron, a gas range, a vacuum cleaner, a electric table lamp and floor lamp, and an electric lamp. This was in striking contrast to the previous scene in which the housewife was seen combining as she bent over ran cladished wash-board and tab. Tense Moments One of the strongest scenes was not deflecting the place of confidence in making a home a happy place. A suspecting husband was on eyedropping on his suspected wife. But to his agreable surprise she repelled the enticing talk with a withering look and a fierce speech that rose to a tense and dramatic climax. equally fine as the husband's disclosure to his life of how he had found her true and now would trust her implicit- But if this scene was tense, the best episodes of the pageant were more so. As the scene shifted from the sick room of a illen daughter in a city tenement back to the old home where at her waiting father a pall of lense fell over the vast crowd. She fell on her father, a dogger in her forgiveness the sisters even more pronounced, finally, when came the reading of the list of the many loved ones who had passed since her leaving, imaxed with the story of his other's death and her final message to put one's trust in Christ, any could no longer stand the rain. One can imagine the effect under these circumstances of the singing of such solos as Christ All, All, All, and Saddedly all lights went off. A moment's silence. Then electric creeps plumed out over the audience, and all followed the chorus in singing; Lead, Kindly right. Much credit is due Miss manser I. Bagann, a member of the church, who capably directed.

The smaller brought out the point that the Church is the sinner's first love when he has been raised within his life. He should not permit him if he is to be separated from God. Worldwide on the park in Christ an a house of Christ an a house of Christ from his first love, in difference from the church and in cause together with factional differences from church quarrels constitute a big feather in growing coldness toward the church, our first love. Churches as well as homes are held together by the law of responsibility. In the securities "remember" is a terrible word. We should know how to remember our "first love." Do the things that you did before, and the "first love" will return. At the evening service the second rites of holy communion were in pressively celebrated.

In the Chrysler "60" it expresses itself especially in qualities which stand out so sharply that you cannot mistake them—the most beautiful riding and handling qualities you have ever experienced, a most amazing agility, and a gushing wealth of power that never halts or hesitates for a single second.

Heart Beats After 20-Minute Stop (Continued from Page One) turned to the body and the deathly appearance had vanished. The doctor hastened over to Rhodes and discovered that the man's heart had resumed its beats. Rhodes is steadily recuperating, as will be seen by his picture. Dr. Engler is of the opinion that because of the tissues around the heart being punctured, the drugs administered found a direct passage to that organ, thus accelerating an immediate response. He says that it is the custom in every case of desperate injury to shoot the heart with these drugs as a means of employing the one possibility of saving life. The treatment he gave Rhodes was merely routine, he said. He frankly admits, however, that he had the slightest hope that Rhodes heart would respond to any sort of treatment, inasmuch as he considered the man just as good as dead. Another Man Cut The fight in which Rhodes received the injury that almost proved fatal occurred at his home, 812 Monticello avenue with a younger man named Bunny Butler, oil 924 Jefferson street, William Fields, also of the Monticello avenue address, was cut in an effort to stop the fight. He, too, was carried to the hospital along with Rhodes. There can be no comparative measure of value, for instance, between the Chrysler "60",withitssixty-mile-and-more-per-hour capacity,andanothercarofferingmuchless. Just as sharply defined is the difference in the comfort of these sixty Chrysler-miles and the lesser speed and the less easeful speed of the other. The vital factor which makes greater value in Chrysler "60" has its source in the-one-thing-which-cannot-be-copied—Chrysler CHRYSLER INFLUENCE ON MOTOR CARS TOLD Improvements Brought Out In First Car Nearly Three Years Ago Have Revolutionized Motordom. Detroit, Oct. 7—A study of the motor car of today reveals the continued far-reaching influence that Chrysler has exerted an all types of motor cars. That company, nearly three years ago, pioneered a score or more of fundamental and revolutionary improvements which are consistently being adopted—some in one car, others in another. Moreover, continuously since its first car, Chrysler has added numerous other features, in keeping with its policy of maintaining leadership. The company points out that it introduced the car which first combined the abilities of 70 miles and more per hour, acceleration of 5 to 25 miles in 7 1-4 seconds and a gasoline economy of better than 20 miles per gallon. Its model "70," it declares, is still the only car that enjoys this combination. Seven-Bearing Shaft Seven-Bearing Sharp Chrysler's seven-bearing crankshaft, extra large and balanced statically and dynamically, with blindness bearings, was the first such in its field. The combination images about remarkable smoothness of engine operation and prolonged curvature. On the first car the company produced, appeared as standard equipment the oil filter, now widely accepted throughout the industry; thermostatic engine heat control new in cars of this price class; heat indicator on the dash, known as the radiometer; and the air cleaner, restricting all dirt and dust from the engine, and assisting to eliminate carbon. Scientific fuel distribution in the first Chrysler was achieved by designing each cylinder to receive identical charges of gas vapor at identical temperatures, with its resulting fuel economy, power evenness and flashing pick-up. To facilitate cold weather starting and minimize crankcase dilution, the engineers introduced the electrical funner. Manifold heat control, another pioneer step, makes for continued better operation. Its more convenient light control—int e gr a w with the horn button—has been widely used. Likewise the indirect lighting of the instrument board and gasoline gauge on dash, which it first introduced as standard equipment.

Chrysler popularized ornamental radiator caps, introducing wings as part of its characteristic design. Today nearly every car maker has devised something along the same pattern. Late in 1925 its engineers found, after long testing, that a high grade steel alloy, invar, made an ideal strut for pistons, enabling them to be fitted closely and permitted them to combine the advantages of both aluminum and cast iron pistons without the disadvantages of either. Pistons with invar struts are now used on the "60", the "70" and Imperial "80". This Chrysler innovation is being elsewhere adopted. The first Chrysler advanced an entirely new body design, a compact new body car, combining comfort and driving ease without wasteful weight or extravagant size. Dynamic symmetry of design in the motor car body, which calls for smoothly flowing curves throughout the length of its construction, is an adaptation of the principles of descriptive geometry to motor car design, never before then heard of. It was first to design, also, the front end as an integral part of the body, considering the body as a unit from the radiator shell to the rear quarter, instead of merely from the cowl. That is why, in the Chrysler design, the hood flows into the body, and looks like a definite part of it. It finished these FIRST In purity—first in quality—first in leavening strength—first in economy.

It was first to use the double head, which was actually part of the construction and not simply tacked on to enhance appearance. More than a year ago it instituted, first of all makers, the Fedco numbering system as a protection against the theft. contrast against The vogue of the roadster is another distinct Chrysler contribution. Chrysler popularized the roadster by building a car in duo-tone that appealed to the public as "lively, get-up-and-go" car. It also popularized the rumble seat, as well as unison seats in this time car. Washington, D. C., Bidg. 1901-3 Seventh St., N. W.

HOW THE VOTES COUNT PAGES 9 TO 14 PART TWO North Carolina News Editorial Page ts Second paign ov.27th How To. Enter And Win The first step in order to share in this mammouth distribution of costly awards is to clip the nomination blank appearing on page one of this issue and send or bring it to campaign headquarters, The Journal and Guide, 711 East Olney Road, Norfolk, Va. The Nomination Blank entitles you or the person nominated to five thousand votes. Then you will be given a FREE outfit consisting of a special receipt book, sample copies of the paper and full information relative to the campaign as well as assistance that will help you win one of the automobiles or one of the grand prizes. It requires VOTES to win and VOTES are secured in two ways—first by clipping out the FREE 100 VOTE COUPONS which will appear in each issue of the Journal and Guide. Very soon, however, these voting coupons will be reduced to a lesser number of votes and they must be voted before the expiration date appearing thereon, but the other and faster way to get votes is by getting your friends to pay you for subscriptions to this paper. Old or renewal subscriptions count as many votes as new subscriptions but you will notice THAT MORE VOTES ARE GIVEN FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS TURNED IN NOW THAN LATER. (See schedule for votes below.) So you see that the more subscriptions you secure and the quicker you get them the better your chances will be to land a dandy new automobile. Then too, the first in the field will get the cream of the votes and the subscriptions while those who put off entering will have to take what is left. Be sure that your nomination is in RIGHT AWAY. Questions And Answers Question—What is the first thing to do in order to enter the Campaign and become eligible to win one of the automobiles or other prizes? Answer—The first thing to do is to clip the nomination blank appearing on Page One. Bring or mail this entry blank to the Journal and Guide office and you are given five thousand FREE votes as a starter. Question—Does it cost anything to enter the Campaign? Answer—There is no cost whatever in connection with becoming a candidate in the $3500 Everybody Win Campaign now or at any time. Question—Since your announcement says that the brand new automobiles and the other prizes are to be given in exchange for votes, how are the votes obtained and what is the best way to get them? Answer—Votes are secured in two ways. First by clipping out the Free Voting Coupons that appear in every issue of The Journal and Guide or have your friends save them and cast them to your credit. The other and faster way to secure votes is by getting your friends to give you their subscriptions to this paper. A certain number of votes are given for each subscription (as you see by the vote schedule on this page). The number of votes allowed depends on the time the subscription is secured. The best way to get votes is the latter method. You thereby get more results for your sparce time efforts, however, all the FREE VOTE COUPONS count also. Get as many of them as you can. Question—Does it make any difference whether the subscriptions I secure are from old or new subscribers? Answer—Vote credit allowed on subscriptions from new or old subscribers is exactly the same. Question—Where may I solicit subscriptions? Answer—Anywhere in the United States. Question—When is the best time to start my campaign? Answer—RIGHT NOW at the beginning of the Campaign is the best time to start for two reasons. First, subscriptions are much easier to get now than at any other time as the field will not have been "combed." Second, the vote schedule is so arranged that those who make the early start get more for everything they do as the vote schedule printed on this page clearly shows. Question—Have I the privilege of nominating myself or must my nomination be sent in by another person? Answer—You may nominate yourself. It is not necessary that your nomination be sent in by another person. Question—What do you mean by your announcement that Everybody Wins? Answer—This means that every active candidate will be paid in proportion to the amount of spare time devoted. To those active candidates who make a weekly cash report and who do not win one of the principal grand prizes a prize in cash or a commission of ten per cent will be paid on all subscriptions turned in. Hence Everybody Wins—there are no losers.

We in Europe can show nothing to match the dementia of a mob that still tears a Negro to pieces or burns him alive for his crimes. . . . It is an old illustration of the difference between theory and practice in the United States that thousands of men who nominally possess full political power have murdered them for fear of inviting the vengeance of their fellow citizens."

Ruler and Mrs. Emma V. Kelly, of Norfolk Grand Daughter. Secretary and founder, and Supreme Mother, wired $300 for the storm sufferers in Florida to Mrs. Hattie L. Williams, of Jacksonville, daughter ruler of Maceo Temple No. 186. This money was used at the relief schools and by the temples for the relief of the refugees. Members of Maceo Temple under the direction of Mrs. Williams have for the past week been cooperating with the Travelers Aid Society at the Union Station where they have rendered excellent service in aid of the colored refugees. Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Williams wired $50 to each of the three temples in the storm stricken area from the fund entrusted to her by the grand temple. The temples are located at Fort Myers, Fort Lauderdale and Miami. These funds went for the immediate relief of members of these temples and others who were in dire need. The Jacksonville Journal, carrying a report of the activities of Daughter Elks and the Travelers Aid workers on behalf of the refugees declared, "heroic work was done" by these agencies at the Union Station "during the trying days when the refugees were coming on every train and in every carriage, some injured, some hungry, others frightened and uncertain as to where they were to go. It was a pitiful story which Miss Clara Belle Wright, the worker at the bureau in the station unfolded to a group of interested citizens and the Journal editor in the station Tuesday night." "Since Wednesday of last week when the refugees began to arrive, she with the aid of the Daughter Elks have cared for between 300 and 400 of the eu fortunate people. There were 75 major cases. There were treated by Red Cross workers and Dr. L. H. Myers, and Dr. S. P. Livingston, of the Afro-American Life Insurance company. Of the 400-refugees more than 200 were children who presented a difficulty which was almost baffling but which the women overcame with patience and fortitude. "Miss Wright declared that the Red Cross workers in the white department were always willing and ready to do whatever they could, and could not have done more than they did, if they had trid." The Boy, Scouts, too aided the colored in the same spirit that the Red Cross, and she had only to ask and everything needed to be done. "The Daughter Elks worked at the station in shifts; one from early morning until 1 p. m., and another from 1 p. m. until the last train left and every refuge was safe on his way home." These A. gave a benefit dance at the Knights of Pythias auditorium, 727 West Ashley street, for the benefit of the storm sufferers of the southeastern part of the state. This dance had already been scheduled by the Daughter Elks to take place after the catastrophe, it was decided to give the victims of the storm the early proceeds. This effort on the part of the Daughter Elks was only an added incident to the great interest they had already shown in the welfare of the people in the storm area.

PORTERS' UNION REPLIES TO WALL STREET JOURNAL For Figures On Wages And Working Conditions of Pullman Porters Appearing In Paper Are Misleading. (Special to the Journal and Guide) New York, Oct. 5—The Brothrood of Sleeping Car Porters, new Pullman Porters' union as提起 the company union, is dating to the first anniversary it is using the occasion to reply statements which recently appeared in the Wall Street Journal seminar alleged wages and living conditions of the porters. One of the big points made in Wall Street Journal statement that the minimum wage of drivers has increased 163 per cent in the last 13 years. quote true," agree the porters, look where it started—$27.50 $91? Is the $72.50 a month a g wage now? We are seek- a minimum of at least $150 ability to meet the high cost of as Pulman Co. saves $139.30 every 15-years in-the-service it pays $90.70 a month, de- the porters. The porter paid rate is "in charge"—doing the porter's work in addition to his on the Pulman car. If the any paid a conductor for the it would spend $150 for the porter plus $80 for the porter, total of $230. None Earn Maximum othermore, the company can point to a single porter regularly employed in charge of a date and therefore earning maximum rate of $104 a month as he is mentioned in the Wall Street journal. The porter is paid the maximum rate when he is out in charge of the private car, but he is seldom out in that activity over a month or two at times and never as much as a steadily. Between the two, he is back to his old brotherhood to state. Bulman Co. is credited with porters on committee and work extra sums on the 20f of their presumed tips using 875 a month. The porters that they are actually paid for such days on which the quitter work occurs, not for the days lost. Roy Laneaster, safety treasurer of the Brothrod, says that he used to miss days when called off his New Chicago run for company unwork. He received pay for two days on which the committee met. Soy-Tips Are Low Lips are about the $55 a month estimated in the Wall Street notal, not $75 later implied as salary, finding from the portfolio replies to a questionaireia.

Mrs. Jefferson Jefferson, The story of Madame Hightower's detection for her friend Alna, was stamped on by an impossible mask. Madame Hightower's Alna's complexion was cleared, and glistened by this now famed face, as that is concerned the same being performed daily by others country, country of the globe. If with pimps and blotchers, with pimps and blotchers, with pimps and blotchers, and sticky should tenderly to the druggist, in your purchase a box of Golden tip, porters say, and most give only a dime. In sleeping cars the percentage is a little higher but the maximum amount given is usually a quarter. When a man and wife and children travel together, the man is likely to give the porter only a quarter for the whole family, even though several berths are occupied. When berths are not all full, the porter is the loser. He is never sure of this much needed extra income from tigs. The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters wants to see the porters and maids paid sufficiently by the Pullman Co, so that they will not depend upon tips for their living, and is really tipping the company, the porters say, for not paying its workers decent wages. The company does not recognize tips as a part of earnings in apportioning pensions to old employees. The average pension given is only $18 a month. Buy Own Food Porters have to pay for their own food en route, paying half the high dining car prices charged to passengers, which is still an expensive rate for such poorly paid workers. Only a third of the porters, according to the Wall St Journal figures, get free uniforms because of 10 years or more service. The majority of porters have this additional expense each year. As for owning their own homes and autos, the brotherhood offices are the best place to where the Wall Street Journal found its figures. Porters in small towns may possibly own little shacks they call homes but the bulk of the porters are urban dwellers and certainly do not own either residences or autos. The financial paper makes a point of the porters' ownership of Pullman Co. stock. Each porter is permitted to buy only one share and less than a tenth have taken the offer. The Pullman Porters Benefit Association, given with the company union, was denied the right of investing $200,000 of its $250,000 funds taken from the porters in stock.

In numbers there is inspiration. Bound together by common ties and working toward a common end for a common purpose—this is the story of civilization—it is the secrecy over these transactions and nothing else in fact in other interests, a few agricultural workers representing several statts and divisions of the vocation of agriculture met at Tuskegee Institute in July, 1926, and created an organization, national in scope, known as the National Agricultural Fraternity. The officers elected were: B. F. Hilbert, president; A. F. Agriculture, Tuskegee Institute, president; T. M. Campbell, Field Agent, U. S. Extension Service, vice president; H. B. Henson, secretary; C. P. Everett, treasurer and Arthur Floyd, treasurer. PURPOSE OF ORGANIZATION The aim of this fraternity is to mobilize and concentrate the intellectual, social, economic and recreational forces of the individuals whereby they may experience a closer fellowship and sympathetic relationship one toward the other to the end that country life may be more profitable and enjoyable. Convincing proof nor accumulative evidence of the necessity of such organization whose purpose will be as above outlined is not necessary when we consider the 925,000 colored farmers cultivating an area of approximately 45,000,000 acres. Working with these farmers in various capacities are the county agricultural agents, and vocational teachers of agriculture known as Smith-Lever and Smith-Hughes agents representing the State and Federal Governments, in addition to the thousands of agricultural teachers directly engaged in the teaching of agriculture in the various agricultural schools and colleges of the country. GENERAL LACK OF DEFINITE ORGANIZATION Too long thinks this organization, has agriculture as a vocation struggled along in an individualistic manner and suffered the pitfalls and embarrassments which is the lot of any institution or like interest which follows such practice. Too long has she been relegated by lesser vocations to basement pews in the great hall of industry because she has been destitute of the constituted representative and spokesman.

STRONGEST IN ITS HISTORY Student Body Hears President Gandy Tell of the True "School Spirit" That Must Be Manifested. Petersburg.—The 44th session of the Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute at Petersburg, Virginia, began with a most encouraging outlook. On Tuesday, September 21, the school opened its doors, and began the preliminary work in preparing the new students for their classes which commenced on the following Monday, September 27. The entire week was spent in registering the students, in giving them examinations or intelligence tests, and in making out schedules for the various classes. All hands were as busy as bees. The formal opening occurred on Saturday evening, September 25. It was a thrilling and impressive occasion. In addition to an excellent address delivered by the President there was inspiring music, arranged and presented by talents selected from members of the faculty. President Greets Students Before he delivered the regular address, the President, John M. Gandy, greeted the students with cheering words of welcome, and afterwards introduced the members of the faculty. There are several changes which add to the strength of an already efficient body of teachers. Among this select group of co-workers, many of the leading colleges and universities of the country are represented: Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Pennsylvania, Cornell, Chicago, Michigan, Ohio State College, and other prominent institutions. This is very gratifying, for a great faculty is a great asset. It is the core upon which success in education depends. In his main speech the President was at his best. His subject was "The Spirit of the Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute." His words were, in part, as follows: The spirit of the school is an intangible thing. It can be known only by what it does. It is like the spirit which, though it cannot see influences the other forces of nature. Again, the spirit of the school is composite—like the tributaries or stream element of a great river, the water of which pours in from various directions, and contributes to a glorious whole. First, in the school spirit, there is the stream element of honesty which determines the proper rating of the individual. This is the opener of braggadocio; for it sets a limit and works steadily towards it. In the school spirit there is also the stream element of genuineness, which is the outgrowth or by-product of honesty. It is the opposite of hypocrisy. In all its dealings, the Virginia Normal and Industrial institute stands for truth. What is the difference, cut to the letter by the administration. All of the efforts of the school are authentic, genuine. The third element, he spoke of, was that of tolerance—the willingness to hear the views of others; that God given right of every individual to think as he feels, and express his honest opinion. The spirit of the school includes also the fellowship and the desire for a reasonable amount of pleasure.

The true value of these lies in mental growth and physical power, both of which are developed by these exercises. The last two elements in the school spirit, he said, are (1) the desire for conscientious labor, which is the true mission of life, and (2) the zeal for progress, the great dynamic force in the life of the school which is productive of self-reliance and the desire for achievement. The President illustrated these last two points by referring to the members of the faculty who continue to study in other universities for further development. It was an able and most appropriate address for the opening exercises. Large Enrollment The enrollment of the school has always been large; but, from appearances, this year it will be larger than ever. Last year the total number of students present during the regular session was 850. Judging from the number of students already, enrolled the total this year will greatly exceed that of last year. The increase in the number of students in the College classroom is more than it should be. It is expected that the total will go beyond 300. This is, indeed, a most encouraging sign when one realizes that civilization depends or rests upon education. The institution is growing both in its efficiency and its capacity. The administration is kept busy in making new improvements and new additions in the matter of buildings. The various departments are organized and equipped with convenience for carrying on their work. The institution is not only recognized as a "class A" college that is qualified to do a high grade of work, but it offers the following number of courses: Eight college curricula leading to eight distinct lines of achievement; four normal school curricula; five curricula in the major trades; a vocational curriculum in Agriculture; an accredited high school curriculum; a well equipped music school. It should be added that students doing college work are accepted with full credit in other leading institutions. Graduates who desire to continue their work in education have been accepted, with no deficiencies in Columbia, Cornell, Michigan, St. John's College, Columbia, Michigan, and other institutions. For the accommodation of the increasing number of students, two new dormitories are being constructed, one for boys and one for girls, each with the capacity to accommodate 125 or more students. The cost of these two new buildings will approximate $200,000. The new gymnasium that was recently started for the work of the Department of Physical Education and Athletics will be completed in the late fall. Another improvement as well as a saving device is the new ice plant that was finished during the summer months. This enables the school to make and supply its own ice. With reference to the new heating plant which was recently built, it was made possible to attach new permanent tunnels, making it possible to heat all the buildings from a common source. All of these new improvements are the results of JARIEUSS makes it 14 minutes in 15 minutes, occasionally. $1.15 POSTPAD Gudeley Mife Co. DEPT 2. 3506 OLIVE ST. ST.

Even the man who watches the clock does more work than the man who watches the thermometer. Those who seek the easy existence of perpetual summer are welcome thereto. For others the physical luxury and mental lethargy of lazy days and lotus eating are nothing compared with the pleasures, anticipations and vigor derived from the infinite variety of the temperate zone, where weather is weather, not climate, and nature in the course of a year can play her entire repertoire. There are romances and an intangible solace for the "bigger than weather" in gray days and frosty nights and the human frame seems to take new strength and life from the beating snow and biting cold. Man's spirit flourishes on combat and resistance. It is the long winter night that puts iron back into souls and rescues them from the appalling possibilities of eternal summer. It is only during his periods of indulence that the dweller in the temperate zone sighs for the year of a single season and dreads the approach of the argent frost, the bleak winds of winter, the drifting snow and the ice-covered rivers. But when the first blast of winter straightens his shoulders, sends the warm blood coursing through his body and quickens his pace, memories of the summer sun vanish before anticipations of snug overcoats, blazing hearths, sound slumber under cozy comforts, roast turkey, pumpkin pies, whole evenings for reading or repose and complete contentment. Fuel bills and shortages, anti-freeze concoctions, snow-covored walks, stalled automobiles and uncertain conditions overhead and underfoot are surely more than compensated for by the many blessings the temperate zone holds for its children.

For third printing of the rar Chicago Commission on Race first published in 1922, in its permanent value, city of the causes and co which it deals, and the cost in and apprehension r The third printing of the report by the Chicago Commission on Race Relations first published in 1922, is an indication of its permanent value, the generality of the causes and conditions with which it deals, and the continued interest in and apprehension regarding the increasing contacts of races in Northern Cities. The northern migration of the negro during the War marked the beginning of a new phase of negro history in the Northern States. The riots in Chicago in July and August, 1919 were merely outstanding illustrations of friction which had appeared in many communities. One must admire the courage, even the heroism, of the negro in facing the inevitable race hatred which develops in his search for subsistence and economy security in the American industrial system. That he is gradually and inevitably winning a more important place for himself economically and socially has not prevented his also acquiring a certain bitterness in consequence of the obvious injustices which have been placed in his way. That he will succeed, however, because of his special gifts in lyric expression, in sanguine temperament and in the joy of living, in making useful contributions to our over-serious and over-somber Anglo-Saxon civilization may now be taken for granted. taken for grant.

The report also shows that while but a few years ago the number of Negroes in jail in Georgia doubled the number of whites, that leadership has been all but lost, the race population in the prisons being now almost equally divided. Previously published official reports have shown that the white population of South Carolina prisons outnumbered the colored. According to the school census of 1923 there were 386,007 white and 253,494 colored children enrolled in the common schools of Georgia. The colored children represented 43 per cent of the total school population. Yet from the sums of money available for school purposes in the fiscal year 1924, colored children received but 9 per cent. The average amount expended yearly for the education of each white child in Georgia was $36.29, while the average amount actually expended yearly for the education of each colored child was $4.59. According to the census of 1920 the population of South Carolina was 51.4 colored and 48.5 white, with 65.5 of the total Negro school population being enrolled in school and 77.2 of the white school population being enrolled. These figures indicate that the school population in the state is about equally divided between the races. Yet the average amount expended yearly for the education of each white child in South Carolina is $27.88, while the average yearly expenditure for the education of each colored child is $2.74. The colored children receive 11 per cent of the total sum available for school schools while the white children receive 89 per cent. In South Carolina, according to The State (Columbia) there are 23,000 Negro farm owners, half as many as white farm owners, and from 1910 to 1920 white farm owners increased 2.2 per cent while Negro farm owners increased 11.7 per cent. These statistics on educational expenditures in Georgia and South Carolina show that in the former state each white child receives from the public funds an amount approximately nine times as great as each colored child receives to help it become a better citizen, while in the latter state each white child receives approximately ten times as much as each Negro child receives for a like purpose. Now, according to the reports on prison population, for the first time in history Negroes of these two states have relinquished the honors of jail confinement to the whites; and the farm census indicates that Negroes in South Carolina are buying farms much faster than the white people. Taken as a whole, the figures point to the fact that these Negroes are making marked improvement in good citizenship and economic standing as is reflected in the steady decline of their jail population and increase in farm ownership in marked contrast to the whites who are showing increasing lawlessness as is reflected in the rise of their jail population and decrease in farm ownership, notwithstanding the fact that the educational advantages for the Negroes are limited to one-tenth of what the educational advantages are for the white people. The whole subject is one that Georgia and South Carolina might study with profit. Quite likely, should they see their way clear to equalize the educational expenditures toward the level now received by the whites, they would bring about a reduction of their Negro jail population to the vanishing point. The money thus saved could revert to the educational fund, thus making the increased appropriation for Negro schools practically self-sustaining. Effecting this proposition might, too, go a long way toward repopulating the deserted farm lands of these states. One thing certain, Georgia and South Carolina are getting splendid dividends from their investments in Negro education in the form of a reduction in providing for Negro jail inmates and an increase in Negro farm owners. They ought to go into the business with a vim. Norfolk Journal and Guide THE GUIDE POST By RICHARD H. BOWLING THE GUIDE POST By RICHARD H. BOWLING Will He Succeed? Will he succeed?

Intelligence has supplanted superstition and brought man to a state where he reasons from cause to effect, thus these appalling catastrophes even if sometimes inexplicable, need not be mystifying. This is a bold front, but the editor seems to weaken a little as he proceeds, for in the next paragraph he says: But down deep into the recesses of our consciousness we sometimes faintly entertain a thought, in spite of our vaunted education and intelligence, that makes us in our bewilderment wonder if there is not some relation between these wholesale calamities and man's mounting transgressions, his apparent disregard of all power except that vested in himself.

In other words, a storm that was sent to express the supposed wrath of the Lord against sinners would have been invested with a sense of discrimination; it would not have punished the good equally with the bad, as this one did.

From New York to St. Louis, from Norfolk to Fort Worth, during the past few months I have been called on by different persons to answer such questions. In replying I have always set it down in my own mind as an axiom with which to begin. No worthy institution can demand of her head more than character, ability suitable temperament, and the hacking of wealthy A Poem A Week A Poem A Week BOOK CHAT BOOK CHAT "NIGGER HEAVEN." By Carl Van Veuilen, Published by Alfred K. Knopf, Inc., 730 Fifth Avenue, New York City Price $2.50. The colored reader who is not familiar with Van Vechten's other novels thinks that in "Nigger Heaven" the colored man is given a rotten deal, so largely is the book concerned with the Negro's sensual life. Such a reader, however, has only to get "The Blind Bow-Boy," or "The Tattooed Countess," from the library (supposing the librarian permits such books to circulate) to learn that "Nigger Heaven" is mild compared with Van Vechten's pictures of white folk. He needs, too, to understand the viewpoint of an author who says, "Voluptousness: to free hearts a thing innocent and free, the garden happiness of the earth." And most of all he should realize that this novelist loves the tale that seems unreal and impossible, repugnant to commonsense. Such a tale "veils a deeply mysterious truth, and the greater the absurdity of the letter, the deeper the wisdom of the spirit." With a knowledge of Van Vechten's other work, "Nigger Heaven" comes as a surprise; it is so serious so real. It is less a satire than a tragedy. It has a hero whose efforts to make a place for himself in this prejudiced world are full of heartbreak. I can think of no colored writer who has so well shown the working of race prejudice upon a sensitive, highly strung Negro. It has an ending that is vivid, tremendous. One must read the story if only for its last pages. "Nigger Heaven" is a cross section of New York. It belongs with Van Vechten's other New York cross sections. But one finds this modernist who likes to draw the impossible intrigued at last by his own characters. His hero is no puppet but a youth suffering from bitter disappointment, his filmy writing torn to shreds, striding down Sixth avenue. And as he strides and as he curses, he is caught by the dark siren of the book who comforts him at first, and then turns him out after a few wild nights. "White men and brown men, I use 'om until I tire of 'om, and then I say, damn you and good-by." Lasca, the siren, is real, and so is the "Creeper" who brings murder on the stage at the end. And if Mary and her friends are less vital, I suspect that is the truth with most stories. Vice is much easier to portray vividly than virtue. You may object to the title, "Nigger Heaven," but don't fail MARY WHITE OVINGTON Ford's Five Day Week BY KRISTEN RICE MENNENN Having put in some time studying the books of Prof. Thomas Nixon Carver of Harvard—trying to find out what Economics is or is not—I was interested in what he had to say about the new Ford plan for a five day week. Prof. Carver says that the increase of holidays is a sign of decadence. The professor probably means that the lessening of the working hours among the laboring classes or wage earners is a sign of decadence. That is it might cut down the profits of the capitalists and at the same time give the workers more time to shimmy and drink beer. Of course to the upper classes this is decadence. Mr. Carver is really worried about how the Ford workers will put in this extra leisure time. What difference does it make how they use it? Of course some of the workers will misuse their new freedom. The workers are just like college professors and corporation presidents. Some of them will spend the time drinking bootleg liquor, petting chorus girls and playing golf or pool. Others will work around the house, or take the family for an outing, or reading the world's best books. Some of the workers may even read a few of Professor Carver's books. HOW OTHERS SEE US The following correspondence will explain itself. I am printing it, not from any sense of self-unity, but because it brings out certain aims of aspirant colored youth imbued with a sense of racial services. I am now in my typing class and the professor has instructed us to type a letter to some one j; so I thought I would write to you. There are a number of people with whom I am acquainted and to whom I could write but I know these same people have a very us to type a letter to some one; so I thought I would write to you. There are a number of people with whom I am acquainted and to whom I could write but I know these same people have a very limited capacity for appreciating things; so I choose to write to some one with whom I am not acquainted but who has a more liberal sense of appreciation. There are always so many beautiful things to say until one hardly knows just where to begin. I shall begin by saying the day is beautiful. I feel encouraged because I went to church last night and heard a very splendid lecture. I always enjoy lectures because they give us so many good things to think about and serve as food for spiritual development. I am taking a post graduate course in high school. I anticipate entering the University of Washington in the spring quarter in sociology and Negro history. However, I do not know just what, books to study that I may be enlightened on these subjects and thus have a more comprehensive view of them when I assume the studios in the University. As you know Mr. Miller, the professors in the schools in Seattle are white, hence Negro history and the questions concerning Negro welfare seem to be of little importance to them. Therefore, I beg leave to ask you if you will kindly send me an outline for the study of Negro history and a list of books relative to Negro welfare. Mothers' Pension Laws (Preston News Service) Negro mothers, struggling with large families and home responsibilities, need to know that forty-two (42) states now have "Mothers' Pension" laws, providing for aid to children in their homes. More then 130,000 children are at present receiving such aid; and although it does not appear how many colored children are included in the estimated 400,000 kiddies who need augmented help in their rearing, it is a foregoing conclusion that meritorious percentage of the needy, if known, would comprise youngsters of the Race. It is interesting to know, from the interesting study which the U. S. Children's Bureau has made of this question, that in such progressive states as New York, California, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Minnesota, New Jersey, Maine, etc., more than 200 children per 100,000 population are receiving the aid granted through the instrumentality of mothers' pensions; while in Arkansas, Texas, Tennessee, Virginia, etc., where surely the need is great, less than 20 children per 100,000 population are receiving mothers' pension aid. In Maryland, the mothers' aid legislation has become inoperative. Colored mothers comprise a larger increment of wage-earners than does any other American group, and it is cheaper to save the children in the home than it is to care for them in the public institutions provided by the states. Colored parents should not be too proud. They should make earnest inquiry regarding this particular benefit, and avail themselves of it. In fact, among the early duties of the Negro welfare associations should be that of pointing out the full list of public utilities which states provide to safeguard their citizenship. A dollar spent at home is easier on the home, the taxpayers, and the community at large than one spent in the maintenance and upkeep of public institutions. If any mothers are deserving of pensions, surely it is the colored mothers, who devoted their generations to toil and endeavor, and at the same time reared, and are now rearing children good enough to war, labor, and indulge in all the necessities of American life. As To White Supremacy I realize you are extremely busy, but if you will squeeze out enough time from your work to send these to me I shall appreciate it very much. It is strange, but it is true, that the more we go to school, the more we find out how much more we need to go to school. Oh, yes, Mr. Miller, I heard you lecture several years ago in Seattle. On both occasions you spoke in Washington Hall located on 14th Avenue and Fir street. I shall never forget the subjects from which you spoke. The first one was "Race Construction During the Anti-Slavery Period." The second one was, of the Negro Problem. The lecture comes back, to my mind now just as clearly as if it were only yesterday I listened to them. I remember you said a mong other things that we must have a peaceful people, if we would have a peaceful country. And as I think of that phrase, over and over again I am convinced of the truth of it. For that is the way it seems to be with everything. We must sow good seeds to reap a fair harvest. We must get good lessons to get good marks; and we must invest our time, talent and ability in the worth while things to secure any benefit. I was a small girl when you spoke in Seattle, and I remember that as I passed in the reception line and shook your hand I told you I wanted to be great some day just as you were. And you laughed and replied that any one could be great who wanted to be. And I thought what a nice, kindly man you must be. I am nineteen years old now, and since that time I have learned that there is nothing in desiring to be just great, but there is everything in giving service. So I no longer desire to be great, but I earnestly desire to render service. I have found that the truly great are those who render service in every way they can, so I wish to be great only in proportion as I render service. I remember you as being a tall, heavy set, massively built man with snow white hair and a high forehead. Your eyes are rather small and have a kindly look in them. The outstanding feature about your appearance is your side burns which are also snow white and which give you a most dignified bearing. You have a princely carriage and stand gracefully on the platform. You wore on both occasions a black suit with a long tail coat. Your collar and cuffs and appearance in general were immaculate. In my idea you are not a handsome man at all, but there is some thing especially nice about you; just what it is I am not able to tell. You made the people laugh when you talked. How does that description fit you? You From the Nashville Tennessee from the MANNESSEAN TENNESSEAN Taking the MANNESSEAN sharply to task for its recent editorial pleading for the continued supremacy of the white man in the councils of the Democratic party, a correspondent asks how that attitude can be reconciled with its high ideals of democracy and its reiterated appeals for international good will. He intimates that the attitude of this paper on the question is inconsistent with its professions of loyalty to the idealism of Jesus Christ. Theoretically a powerful plea can be made for the equal participation of the Negro in the affairs of government. The same plea on behalf of the Chinese or the Japanese or the Malays can be made to rest on the same foundation. On the premises from which our correspondent argues we are wrong in our exclusion of the yellow races and our immigration policy does great violence to Christian ethics. But there are many theories, seemingly without flaw, that fail and fail miserably in their application to the everyday affairs of life. This is an intensely practical world. It is, after all, a world of sin; man's shortcomings are grievous to contemplate. We serve our race and our generation best when we look at things as they are, and not as we would have them. The theory of "self-determination" on the tongues of every so-called statesman but recently is on its face unobjectionable, but efforts to put it into effect in utter disregard of ethical, economic and geographical considerations have added immensely to the woes of the world. Its application to the unfortunate controversy two generations ago in our own country would have proved a calamity. History demonstrates that as yet the white race is the only race that has made even a tolerable success of self-govern- By KELLY MILLER see I have really seen you, have I not? Well Mr. Miller, I hope you will not take offense at my letter and think me bold and fresh. You also said in your letter that you loved young people and always gave them good advice because it was on the young people the responsibility of leadership would some day fall. Well, I am young so I felt I am included. I feel you are my friend even if you do not know me. I have read ever so many of your articles in magazines and papers. I have also read several of your books. In one of your books you wrote this: "A man who serves his community is great in the positive degree; the man who serves his race is great in the comparative degree; but only the man who serves all humanity regardless of race, color or creed is great in the superlative degree." Mr. Miller, I truly think you are great in the superlative degree, in that you serve all humanity so faithfully and so well The majority of people are so strange. They pay such glowing tributes to the dead and such little heed to the efforts of the living. Each year in school we must write essays and give occasions for Washington, Lincoln, Franklin and a host of other departed folk, while never a word of appreciation or note of praise is ever sounded for the leaders who live and make the daily effort to solve these universal problems. While I study about the heroes of yesterday and pay them tribute. I strive to appreciate the leaders of today. Well the class is almost over. Soon the teacher will ring the bell for us to close our lessons for the period. I had to write to some one and I have written to you. I thank you in advance for the outline. Goodbye Mr. Miller My dear____. I beg to acknowledge receipt of your favor and to express my appreciation of your generous treatment of the subject of which you selected as the theme of your required exercise. Your composition and technique do great credit to your typographical skill. I am especially glad to know that you are imbued with the sense of racial enthusiasm, and service, and are anxious to keep informed on racial history, literature and general life. I am sending you under separate cover a copy of the Newro Year Book which I am sure will furnish the information you need. It is needless to say that I feel gratified whenever I learn that the seed of duty and service which I have been scattering abroad has fallen on fertile soil. With Yours truly. KELLY MILLER ment. It may be in the eons of ages that lie before us other races will develop the same qualities that have made this possible. Everybody knows now that the enfranchisement of the Negro, under the circumstances which then existed, was a crime — a crime not alone against the dominant race but against the Negro. He has shown little capacity for self-government even under the tutelage of the white man, and none in Haiti where the culture and the opportunities of a century ago have almost been forgotten. In pleading for white supremacy in government, the TENNESSEAN speaks as the consistent and loyal friend of the Negro Race. It loves their many admirable qualities as it regrets their-patent shortcomings. It knows that it is best for them as it is best for the white man for civilization, that the dominance of the Anglo Saxon in this nation should not be challenged. The white man can be fair, just honorable in all his dealings with the Negro Race and maintain his supremacy, a supremacy which if not God-given, has at least the experience and the achievements of the ages upon which to rest an enduring foundation. The white man of Tennessee of the South and, for that matter, of the nation has no present idea of dividing dominion with any other race. He is not going to surrender his primacy; every achievement of civilization; every lesson of the past negatives such an idea. He will never voluntarily yield to any other race. Hence, if the Negro is encouraged to vote, he is used simply by designing white men who now and never will have any purpose except a sinister and selfish one in using the Negro's franchise. That motive will never be one of consideration for the Negro, but always and ever one born of the hope of some advantage for the white man.
