XXVI No. 45 MEXICANS BAR RACE ENTRY Nationals Of Every Country Affected By Order FEAR LABOR MENACE New York, Nov. 3.—According to a New York World News Service copyrighted article sent out from Mexico City Saturday, the Government of Mexico will hereafter bar all Negroes from the country. Minister of Interior Tejida has sent orders to all ports and border points to exclude them. The order applies to Negroes of all nationalities. World News Service states that the bar was raised because of fear of Negro competition against Indian labor in agriculture in the Southern States. It says there has been considerable influx lately from Haiti, Santo Domingo and Jamaica. The only Negro population of consequence in Mexico live along the Gulf Coast, continues the article. They came from the West Indies and South America, and their total number is not more than 50,000. They are confined to the states of Vera Cruz, Tobasco, Cougache and the territory of Quinnane Roo. A Negro on the continent is regarded as a curiosity, it is said. This order bearing Negroes from Mexico comes undisguised, but there have existed for quite some time silent regulations disciplining against the admission of migrants to the country. Several months ago, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, of New York, was constrained to protest to the Government of the United States against Mexican discriminatory regulations concerning entry of American Nero nationals into Mexico. ANOTHER MAN IS INDICTED IN THE HEATH MURDER ANOTHER MAN IS INDICTED IN THE HEATH MURDER Paul Green was indicted Tuesday by the grand jury of the Circuit Court of Norfolk County as an accomplice with John Wilson in the murder of aged Mrs. Ella Heath at Olive Branch on August 21. Green is charged in the indictment with committing the crime by himself and jointly with Wilson, who is in the penitentiary awaiting execution on December 17. Wilson was to have been electrocuted October 22 but was granted a reprieve of motion on motion of Commonwealth's Attorney Carney. Green, who it is alleged disappeared from the Olive Branch community on the evening Mrs. Heath murdered, was arrested in Suffolk several weeks later on a housebreaking not in connection with the Heath case, and was indicted on that charge Tuesday in addition to the true bill for murder. It has not been indicated by the Commonwealth's Attorney if the arrest and indictment of Green will alter the status of Wilson's case. The latter has maintained his innocence from the beginning. Pennsylvania Will Probe Fraternal Insurance (Preston News Service) Harrisburg, Pa., Nov. 4—Twenty-six fraternal insurance organizations, with headquarters in various States, were called upon by Emar Barford, State Insurance Commissioner, Thursday to show cause on November 9 why their businesses to sell insurance in Pennsylvania should not be revoked. The action is said to be the result of recent investigation by the commissioner. This investigation showed, he said, that while "some excellent fraternal societies" were found to be doing business in Pennsylvania, "others appeared to operate principally for the benefit of the organizers, officers and promoters." Two waterfalls on the Alberche River, Spain, are to be harnessed to produce power for irrigation, for a railroad and for manufacturing plants of Madrid. England is fighting to keep the open spaces along the picturesque shore of the island from being turned into developments by entrepreneurial realtors.

Child Identifies Father's Weapons In Mother's Murder Sacramento, Cal., Nov. 5.—(By The Associated Negro Press)—Little Genevieve Walters, 9-year-old daughter of George Waters, was the State's sole eye-witness to her mother's death last January for whose murder her father was convicted. "My father killed my mother," she testified, and although her father exhibited hardly any emotion during the recounting of herversion, she also identified the rifle with which he shot her mother and eight knives with which he hacked her body to pieces. CHEST FUND DRIVE OFF TO START Workers In Intense Campaign For Goal This Week A group of determined and inspired Chest Fund canvassers sailed forth Tuesday morning, figuratively with the rising of the sun, bent on harvesting the sinews for the maintenance of six colored philanthropic agencies for the year 1927. Dauntless and imbued with the inspiration to serve humanity with the best that is in them these canvassers of the Colored Division of the Chest Fund are seeking out of the environs of this city $10,000 before sunset next Tuesday afternoon, November 9, in order to insure for twelve months hence the normal functioning of the Colored United Charities, the Y. W. C. A., LeKies Old Folks Home, the Maternity Ward, The Boys' Club and the Travelers' Aid Society, all who fail, the annual burden of succeeding the unfortunate, developing the character of our youth and guiding the pathway of the stranded. Pre-Campaign Banquet Monday night in the lecture room of St. John's A. M. E. Church the pre-campaign banquet was staged when the Chest Fund workers were on hand to receive their final instructions and to partake of the spirit of enthusiasm with which it was hoped to launch the annual drive. Stout-hearted volunteers were present, a number of them, and pledged their time and effort to bring Norfolk's 1927 Colored Community Chest Fund to the hoped for success. Optimistic as usual, Director General Jesse O. Thomas, of Atlanta, Ga., was on hand and gave his final inspirational talk as well as directions and information probably on thought of by his spouse. O. Palmer, chairman of the campaign committee, was master of ceremonies, and general functionary. Pleasure speeches were made by Mrs. Laura E. Titus, on behalf of LeKies Old Folks Home; Mrs. P. B. Young, of the Travelers' Aid; Mrs. D. W. Byrd, of the Y. W. C. A.; Mrs. Eliza Clark, of the Maternity Ward; Mrs. Ida Bagnall of the United Charities and Abner E. Lee, secretary of the campaign committee and Boys Club secretary. Davis Indicted For The Dudley Murder Washington, D. C., Nov. 2-An indictment charging George Sheridan Davis with murder in the first degree for the killing of Mrs. Demona Barnett Dudley on September 21, last, was returned by the grand jury Tuesday. Davis, who was a policeman, shot Mrs. Dudley five times and then attempted to end his life by shooting himself through the right temple, completely destroying his right eye. Mrs. Dudley died en route to Emergency Hospital. Davis recovered in Freedmen's Hospital and on October 5, a coroner's jury ordered him held for the action of the grand jury. The motive for the slaying is said to have been the return of Mrs. Dudley to her husband, Sherman H. Dudley, who had filed suit against her for an absolute divorce and named Davis as the correspondent. Mr. and Mrs. Dudley had effected the reconciliation the week before the tragedy and had just returned on the previous evening from Atlantic City, N. J., where they had spent the week- The principal witnesses who appeared before the grand jury were Frank C. Anderson and James Wright. They were eye-witnesses to the tragedy which occurred in an apartment in the Dudley Apartments, 1316 U Street, Northwest, in which Mr. Dudley had been living while he and Mrs. Dudley were estranged.

STUDENT STRIKE ENDS Freshmen Start Trouble Which Is Quickly Halted HAZING CAUSE OF IT Charlotte, N. C.—The student strike which started here Saturday when six sophomores were suspended by the faculty for hazing has ended, the seventy sophomores who joined the ninety freshmen in the strike having met the faculty requirements and returned to their studies. Seventy freshmen refused to yield and were suspended. None of them have been reinstated, but conditions are otherwise normal, President McCrory announced today. Following last Saturday's football victory the freshmen and sophomores agreed to cut chapel because the faculty refused to reinstate the six sophomores involved in the hazing incident. Both classes were promptly suspended and the strike followed. GETS VERDICT OF $200 AGAINST POLICE OFEICERS GETS VERDICT OF $200 AGAINST POLICE OFEICERS Albert W. Perkins Wins In His Action For Damages For Unlawful Arrest Albert W. Perkins, 410 Charlotte street, was awarded a verdict for $200 by a verdict in the City Circuit Court Monday in his suit for $10,000 filed against Sergent L. T. Sykes, J. A. Winslow and H. L. Helvin, police officers, several months ago. The plaintiff charged the officers with unlawful arrest and assault growing out of an incident near his home on July 9. Motion for a new trial was entered and hearing on this was continued by Judge Allan R. Hanckel. Arrested After A Chase Perkins was arrested after he had been chased and fired at by the officers following his protest against the entry upon his premises in a company with a woman of one of their number, he alleged in his complaint. The officer in question, Perkins stated, was not known to him as a policeman when the protest was made. Following the protest, he declared, this officer was joined by his two companions and all three of them, neither of which was then known to the plaintiff as officers, advanced upon him. He took flight, he says, and was chased across the Academy lot by officers, fired at by them, until he took refuge in a building on Cumberland street, where he was immediately captured, arresting severely beaten by the defendants. Perkins, who is one of the best known young colored men of the city and possessor of an excellent reputation, was represented by Walter H. L. Tazewell and Tazewell H. L. W. G. L. Paige, Joseph Hall. Eugene Diggs, members of bar; F. S. T. Sucker, business man; Walter J. Scott, instructor in Booker T. Washington High School, and the Norfolk Division of the Virginian Railway, all of whom testified to the plaintiff's good reputation. Prosecution Argument Land, in his argument, stressed the importance of upholding the reputation of the defendant. He made very forceful and eloquent Captain Taylor emphasized the important of treating the colored race with justice, declaring that the plaintiff is of the class that has made economic progress, and that in fleeing from cultural corsers he did what he wanted, for any man to be under the circumstances. He declared that reputable armed citizens should be accorded the same protection in their personal and property rights that are accorded any other citizens. The defense sought to prove that Perkins was aiding and abetting prostitution in connection with the presence of the woman in question near his home. The officers set out that Perkins was under arrest when he ran. They also testified that they heard a scuffle on the third floor of the Cumberland street house and that Perkins came out of a room and ran down the stairs, (Continued on Page Eight) NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1926 SIR JOHN HENRY HARRISON Top picture shows a brilliant kick made by Tuskegee.

TUSKEGEE TIGERS SWEEP TO VICTORY OVER LINCOLN LIONS; DOWN EASTERNERS BY 2016 Ben Stevenson and Wooten Carry Off Backfield Honors For Tigers, While Martin and Hibbler Star For Pennsylvanians BY THOMAS W. YOUNG Philadelphia, Oct. 29—A tornado blew over Franklin field here today and counted in its list of casualties a pack of lions from the wilds of Pennsylvania. Two touchdowns, two subsequent points, two field goals, a little kicking, a bit of running, some passing, and a measurable portion of tackling is about all that can be credited to the ledger account of "Big Ben" Stevenson, Tuskegee's three-fold threat half-back, who played the leading role in Lincoln University's defeat a 20 to 16 before a crowd liberally estimated at 15,000 persons. In his gallant stand to turn back the gust of defeat that pointed it way toward the Pennsylvania cam "Julie" Martin unleashed a grad of fotball that won for him in the consensus of opinion, the honor being the most agile, brilliant, and most versatile figure on the gridron on the occasion of the season' most conclusive intersectiona struggle. sion of the line. Brooks, Lincoln' new end playing his second game in that position, and Givens, a Novelk boy who plays a brilliant tackle, were shining in the noble stand to protect their goal line. Offense Deciding Factor This game was fought on both sides with a marked and determined opponent. On this play, Tuskegee with the more deliberate attack, and by far the more powerful and seasoned vanguard behind which her redubtable backs dashed to victory, won the game. The big scores do not describe a loose and "fluke" sort of game as some may be disposed to believe, but it shows that both teams maneuvered with one objective, and that to score. The team that could outscore the other was he winner. And Lincoln was only zephyr compared to the aggregation from Alabama. That is the reason why the not infrequent prints of 15, 25, 70 yards and the like were at all times imminent if Tuskegee negotiated three-quar In the wake of these two power of the striped turf, follow the flee: Hibbler who frequently sweep; around ends for consitient and needed gains, and the bulk of push that answers to the name of Wooten.

And Tuskegee's hard hit fullback, Wooten was always boring through the forward wall of Lincoln defence. Full of Excitement But more than being just intersectional or important, the game was replete with excitement. It was one of those rarely interesting games which always have the galleries off-balance, straining, and yelping with delight. Every minute some figure burst into the limelight to shatter the monotony of ordinary play. One would see Stevenson cutting across the gridiron, hurling his giants figure through a mass of Orange and Blue, or kicking field goals unabated; or the dashing, ducking, jumping pass the fusilade-of-Lion defence; then the fulgent dash of Hilbier as he rounded the further end of his forward wall for long gains. To this store of thrills Wooten of Tuskegee and his running mate, Stewart, contributed largely. While almost unnoticed we Captain Grusty, veteran tackle of the Lion hoard, who continually forced his way through Tiger opposition downing his man on both sides of the line, Tadlock, Tuskegee's All American center, roving up and down the line, diagnosing his opponents' plays and interfering at will, and the versatile Sage Kitchen, tackle of the including southerners, stopping nearly every play that came through his divi- vision of the line. Brooks, Lincoln's new end playing his second game in that position, and Givens, a Norfolk boy who plays a brilliant tackle, were shining in the noble stand to protect their goal line. Offense Deciding Factor This game was fought on both sides with a marked and determined offensive campaign. On this plan, Tuskegee with the more deliberate attack, and by far the more powerful and seasoned vanguard behind which her redoubtable backs dashed to victory, won the game. The big scores do not depute a loose and "fuke" sort of game as some may be disposed to believe, but it shows that both teams maneuvered with one objective, and that to score. The team that could outscore the other was the winner. And Lincoln was only zephyra of Alabama. That is the reason why the not infrequent prints of 15, 25, 70 yards and the knee at all times imminent. If Tuskegee negotiated three-quarers of the field on four of five runs, Lincoln would enculate the lead. It was a great game. Lions Hop Off to Early Lead Just after the kick off Lincoln covered Tuskogee's fumble on the 18 yard line. Young and Charleson gained four yards on two thrusts, but Hibber sensed the strength of the opposing line and sent Young back to the 25-yard line to place kick for the game's first tally. The Tornadoes were not to be out done. On the kick-off, Stewart measured off some 60 yards of valuable Franklin field realy and placed the oval on the Pennsylvania's 18-yard mark. Wooten and Stewart needed a first dome, and two twelves, the mighty Stewart who last year made every mythical eleven selection and no doubt will again this year, started around left end with the ball, and with a cut back toward tackle pierced the Lincoln protectorate for the initial time. The big half-back also added the extra point, changing the score to 7 to 3 in favor of the Alabama. Lincoln Leads at Half. Time Lincoln leads at half-time. In the same quarter, however, the Tiger's agile center Tadlock leveled to intercept one of Young's passes on the latter's 20-yard line. When Lincoln stiffened her defence, Stevenson place-kicked the oval to raise the score to 10-7. But quickly following this the lions made their roar heard. After Stevenson had kicked to his 45-yard mark and had a 15-yard penalty imposed upon his team, Martin, the hero who was destined to garner the larger division of heroes himself, received the fray, and it himself was immediately negotiated twelve yards, which coupled with a five penalty, placed the pigskin on the Tornadores 13-yard line. From here Hibbert sped around the right end and tailed the first touchdown of the FOURTEEN PAGES, IN TWO PARTS In Tussle ban near the goal. an insert is Captain Grasty of the LAST SATURDAY'S RESULT Lincoln 16; Tuskegee 20.

Here Martin cut through right tackle and ran a beautiful broken field, evading several would-be tackles, and finally raced across the last white crusade was some 70 yards away. Young booted the extra point. The half ended with the score still 16 to 10 in favor of the Lincolites. Tuskegee Clinches the Game Early in the third period Young failed at a placement kick.

Many of the contestants—in fact all of them—are already getting much out of the contest, even before the distribution of prizes begins. Miss Gladys V. Tinsley, daughter of Dr. J. A. Tinsley and Mrs. Tinsley, of Weldon, N. C., who is a student at Mary Potter Memorial School, Oxford, writes; "I am putting forth my best efforts to secure subscriptions, because I feel my subscribers will be satisfied with your paper." Mrs. Gussie L. Banks, of Newport News; "I am glad to know that subscriptions are coming in to your library as a satisfactory rate. I am always known the Journal and Guide to be the best race paper and I am proud that others know it as well." Miss Myrtle Robinson, Hampton: "I am finding a great deal of pleasure in soliciting for your splendid paper, and if I am not successful in winning the first prize I feel that my efforts will be worth while just letting the colored people know the many good things done by their race. I find the masses are largely ignorant of our progress and successes, but with such a campaign as this I think it will be the means of creating greater respect for the race along all lines." Every letter brings words of good meaning from confession to confession. --- Hospital Refuses Man Treatment; He Dies Before Aid Arrives Kansas City, Mo, Nov. 2—(By The Associated Negro Press)—William Storey, a banjo player in the Silver Moon Orchestra, died of heart trouble and an attack of acute indigestion he Thursday morning, after he been refused account of his color.

AFRICANS AT ZOO TO BE RETURNED (By Louis R. Lautier) Washington, D. C., Nov. 3.—The two native Africans, who were brought here with the expedition that went into the wilds of Africa in search of animals for the National Zoological Park, will be returned to their homeland, Dr. William M. Mann, director of the zoo and leader of the expedition, stated today. Permission had to be obtained from the British Government, Dr. Mann said, for these native Africans to accompany the expedition to America, and he promised the British Government that they would be returned. Nervous Of Lion Roar These two Africans are named Saida and James. They are living in the quarters of the guards in the lion house at the zoo. Although accustomed to hearing the roar of lions, Saida told Dr. Mann that the roar of the caged lions make him and James nervous. They forget that these lions are locked up and not in the jungles of Africa. Persistent Accuser Finds Self in Jail (Preston News Service) New Brunswick, N. J., Nov. 5.—Chewen Brown, helper on a coal mine, was tried for over a week to bring about the arrest of Miss Dovothy Jones for the alleged theft of $260 Brown said belonged to him. Last Thursday evening he made a formal complaint, Miss Jones was arrested in Trenton, and her first act was to inform the police there that Brown is in reality Fred Polk, wanted for murder in Seaport, Del. Seaport police confirmed the information. Now Mr. Brown is in jail awaiting extradition, and Miss Jones is in jail at Trenton, waiting to come here to face the theft charge. Jones told police that Brown had given her the money but objected when she told him she was going to Trenton. In his anger he complained to the police and made information against her. PLEADSGUILTYTO EMBEZZLEMENT OF ELK FUNDS Hill Is Remanded To Jail To Await Sentence; Release On Probation Opposed Washington, D. C., Nov. 3.—Chase S. Hill, an attorney, having his offices at 611 F Street, northwest, and living at 739 Fairmont Street, northwest, pleaded guilty Monday in criminal court No. 1 of the District Supreme Court to charges of embezzlement and larceny, after trust. Immediately after he had entered his plea of guilty, Hill was ordered committed and locked in the cellroom in the basement of the courthouse. In the afternoon he was transferred to the District jail. His commitment came when his bendsmen told the court that they did not care to be his sureties any longer. Justice A. E. Hoehling, before whom Hill pleaded guilty, referred the case to the probation officer for investigation. Reports that Hill had been involved in financial troubles with the Nineteenth Street. Baptist Church while a trustee of that institution and in other difficulties in connection with funds belonging to other people were immediately placed before the probation officer. ALL NEWS THAT'S WORTH READING PRICE 7 CENTS MEMBERS OF MOB NAMED Sensational Report Gov. McLeod By Walter White New York, Nov. 4. Names of lynchers and full details of the lynching of one colored woman, Bertha Lowman, and her brother and cousin, at Aiken, South Carolina, in the early morning of October 8, have been obtained on the spot by Walter White, Assistant Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and all the facts submitted in a letter to Governor McLeod of South Carolina. A lawless reign of terror in the State of South Carolina in the vicinity of the lynching city of Aiken is disclosed by the daring investigation just completed by the N. A. A. G. P. Assistant Secretary, which brings to light the following startling facts: 1. The lynching was planned and executed by members of the Kit Klux Klan. 2. Officers of the law took part in the lynching and a number of them acted as "official executioners" of the mob victims. 3. The prisoners were turned over to the mob by the Sheriff and his assistants, who were parties to the crime. 4. Reputable white citizens living in that vicinity are terror of their lives from the lawless Ku Klux Klan ring and go heavily armed, but their door at night, and have been "praying to God" for some person from outside the State to come in and bare the facts. Walter White, who has just returned to New York, made the following statement: Mr. White's Statement "I went to Aiken for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and as Special Correspondent of the New York World. I found a situation in South Carolina which beggars description. Among the persons with whom I talked were some of the best known and most respectable white citizens of South Carolina. I met a few newspaper editors, farmers and business men, I found them heavily armed and terrified because of the activities of the Klan and allied criminals. The predicament of colored people can easily be imagined. "Early in 1924, Sam Lowman, his wife, Annie and their children moved from Saluda County where they had lived all their lives to the farm of a white man named Hartley, 13 miles from Aiken. As a result of a quarrel between this man and another white man, the latter sought to embarrass Hartley by notifying the Sheriff that the Lowmans were selling white people of white people and without exception they declared that the Lowmans were entirely industrial, law-abiding and respected family. As a result of the anonymous letter to the Sheriff, Sheriff H. H. Howard and Deputy Sheriff Nills Robinson, R. L. McElhaney, and A. D. Sheppard went to the Lowman home on April 25, 1925. Two weeks earlier, on a Sunday night, a crowd of Klansmen robed and hooded had called Demon Lowman, 22-year old, from his home and whipped him. (Continued on Page Thirteen) Thought Man Had Right To Give Woman Whipping (Preston News Service) Pittsboro, N. G., Nov. 5: "—I thought a man had a right to whip his wife when she needed it," declared Arthur McSweeny when told by Judge Crammer in court Thursday that it was against the law that his wife beaten up by McSweeny, a large, soiled man, was indicted for a particularly brutal beating of his wife. He was sentenced to six months on the public roads. Judge Crammer told him, in passing sentence that this would probably impress upon him the fact that it was serious to beat a woman in North Carolina.

For although carburetables are very reasonable in prices and keep well in a cool place, the marketman's facilities are better for keeping any amount, large or small than the limited space of an apartment kitchen. This month brings us to the end of the fall fruits and vegetables, and is the beginning of the winter ones. About this time the housewife begins to draw on her early summer supplies which she preserved when they were in season. Endive is available and is a change from lettuce, which we have been serving all summer and fall. Remember it is more tasty if served with French Dressing than with Mayonnaise, due to its characteristic taste. Then there is salify or vegetable oyster, which is delicious in soups or scalloped as fresh oysters, egg plant, squash, califlower and cabbage, all add variety to the menu. There are so many delicious ways of preparing all of these fall vegetables no member of the family need grow tired of them. Also remember nothing tastes quite so good on a cold crisp day as spare-ribs and sauerkraut or saunerkraut may be served with roast pork with great success just as apple sauce or cranberry.

Cranberries Will Make Good Things Besides Sauces Of course you didn't realize it, but away back in July the cranberry bugs were beginning to get ready for the Thanksgiving gifteat. And they weren't slow about it, either. For while the vines were only blooming in late summer, they were ready to harvest in September. That looks like good American efficiency. Cranberries come in various shapes. Some are round, some are like a little bugle, others are oblong and some oval like an olive. While a few marketmen call their berries by their shapes, they are all generally classed as "just cranberries." Cranberries vary in color as they do in shape. Some are very dark red, some are pinkish and some almost white. As you look across the counter at the grocer's and see the various colors beckoning to you, keep in mind that you need for your jelly a ripe berry, of deep color. Choose a berry that is a very dark red and very firm to the touch. For while there are berries that look particularly large, juicy and tempting, it is the dark, compact medium-sized berry that is going to give you the best experience. Very many berries are likely to be soft and juicy. The tremply light berries are so disassociated in our minds with what one thinks cranberries should look like that they are rarely bought unless there are no others to be had. These winter berries will make innumerable delightful things besides the traditional sauce and jelly. Our greatest care should be to make a good method is to make a boiling syrup, put in the cranberries and let them boil until they crack open. Then put out the fire and let them Phone 27402 NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE Fall Vegetables or Better MARRIAGE LICENSES James Friar to Nettle Edwards, Norfolk county.

For the first time in the history of athletics here, has this been done and it is reasonable to believe that these boys and the heads of these two prominent schools will warmly appreciate the cordiality shown so far. All teams that have ever had the rare privilege of visiting this fairity, have been heartily welcomed and made to feel at home. This has been evidenced through the deeds of them to come back here again. But now, these business men of progressive ideals have contributed to the means that extends these schools a public welcome.

Rival Coaches Are Determined to Take Tilt NORFOLK ATHLETIC CLUB TAKES TWO IN A ROW THIS WEEK COMING FOR FIRST TIME? BUT TO WIN COMING FOR FIRST TIME? BUT TO WIN Johnny Hurt, coach of the Demon Deacons is largely responsible for the success of the Seminary teams. He has been at Lynchburg for quite a little while and during his stay has brought Seminary where she is in the athletic world. Hurt got his football training at Ford and Lincoln. He played a brilliant career for Ford and was successful in being picked as all-American end. He has had a world of experience and it has been made obvious through the playing of Vp. Seminary in the past few years. Hurt says his boys got off a little bad at the opening of the season, but he expects nothing else but a triumph on Monday when his Deacons team is in the best possible condition for the affair and has trained them to the match to take the game. He says: "We have never played in Norfolk, therefore it is encum­ pence upon us to take this game and establish ourselves in the hearts of Norfolk fans. We shall make our first trip to Norfolk a success­ one by beating Union. This should do. Of course, I expect hard light, but I believe my boy can take care of themselves. S. C.

C., Nov. 1, Norfolk Athletic Club met a much strengthened Tiger eleven here today when these two clubs battled to an 18-0 game, with the Norfolk team on the heavy end of the scoring. The Tigers were greatly improved over the form they showed when they were swamped by a 62-0. From the outset, it was apparent that the game would be a closely contested affair and this antitition was borne out before the game was many minutes old. The note does not indicate the time of football put up by the North Carolina boys.

The Tigers had more punch and dash on this game. Norfolk A. C. began this game cautiously and played it safe most of the time in order to prevent injuries that might render the players incapable of playing in Tuesday's affair with the Newspaper News 'Y' eleven the boys got startled it seemed to be going hard and some stage games found them snapping into it and playing the Tigers off their feet at the same time, collecting three touchdowns. The Tigersought hard to stave off this defeat, but N. A. C. would not be denied the victory and the boys went after it with a vim. **Gets First Blood** The first touchdown came in the latter stages of the quarter, when Bibbins used to Tolliver, which was good for 30 yards, with the receiver squirring over for a After this touchdown, the Tigers settled down to business and hold the Virginiaians far a while, but N. A. C's little team had drawn blood and was raring to go after more with the Tigers fighting hard to hold their opponents in check and making an effort, themselves, to register a score. They ran and kicked, but the Tigers A. C. would turn back every assault and unleash an attack that would push the Carolina in backyard. After an exchange of punts, Norfolk A. C. was about mid-field and kicked to the Tigers. On receiving the punts, the Tigers' safety man fumbled and it was a merely scramble, both teams trying to elusive pigskin. During this merry chase after the ball, it was kicked by a Tiger ball game across their own goal and landed, who had been playing hang up game throughout, and on it behind the goal giving the visiting second touchdown. The third and last tally came in the last quarter, when Bibbins completed another pass to Toliver for 40 yards, attempts for attacks were called. extra play. Armstrong, Rodges and Holley played at a steady and consistent game for the North Carolina aggregation, figuring largely in nearly every scrimmage. The entire N. A. C. team played a good brand of ball, with Jordan. Thomas, Dallas and Tolliver doing the outstanding work in the line and Whitehurst and Bibbins carrying off the honors in the backfield. INFUR NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE Union Mentor U HENRY HUCLLES, vers a tille coach of Union Panthers. N. A. C.'s big team turned the tables on the Newport News "Y" squad here Tuesday at League Park and sent the boys back home on the short end of a 9-0 score. The big team had it all over the "Y" team, hardly giving it a chance to get started, keeping them the fellows in their own territory throughout the game. At no stage in the game, did Newport News seriously otherwise threaten to teach this game from the folk Athletic Club. N. A. C.'s big team was the master of the situation from whistle to whistle and set about the task of lambasting the visitors with ease and grace. Norfolk Athletic Club played a better brand of football than the team has been able to show the patrons in this neck of the woods this season. The team was working with clock-like precision, with every cog in the big mapleton chine folding properly. Even in that line up knew what he was in there for and they did their jobs neatly. The score sounds small and leads one to believe that it is indicative of a closely contested affair. In some stages it was closely contested, but the big team was too big for the best. Newport News and it was holding the "Y" to two and keeping her, always beyond the 50-square line, down in her own territory. Scores Safety Norfolk Athletic Club received the kick, but after two thrusts punted to Newport News, who attempted to carry the ball down the field. Finding the attack of no avail, she soon returned the ball and the boys of the big team began to show their stuff, ripping off important yardage. He started off getting 15 yards in follow-up to the big beforth, for 3-12 yards. Gordon came around for 4 yards and Hill supplemented this for 3 yards and first down. The boys were charging now and they charged so fast and hard that another first down was netted in two shakes of a goal's tail, with Gay getting 3 yards and Gordon tearing the line to pieces with a crash that yielded 7-12 yards. Gordon came right back for yards, but on the next play Gay was thrown out. Gary was grounded and Hill kicked on the third down. On receiving the "Y's" safety man fumbled and Smith recovered on the 10 yard line. The boys were in scoring distance now and they made a mighty effort to puncture the opponents' line for a touchdown. On the first thrust, Gay got a fraction and Chamberlain took the ball one yard. Gordon's stab at the line netted 2 yards and Gay failed to gain on the next down. In bracing and held the Y's for fouls on the first down, they tempted to punt out from behind their goat but the kicker stepped out of the end zone, which gave Norfolk A. C. a safety and 2 points. These 2 points just urged the big team on to greater efforts and they were efforts too, for they netted a touchdown almost immediately. The quarters had changed after the "Y" kicked off to the locals from her own 20 yard line. Gay brought the ball up 10 yards and on the first crack, the big bertha, Chamberlain crushed through for 10 yards. Gordon taking the ball eased through for 6 yards and Hill got 3 yards, placing the ball on the "Y's" 26 yard line. On an end run, Hill raced for 20 yards around left end.

BERNARD YOUNG, Jr., Staff Correspondent ATTUCKS PATRONS CLAMORING FOR FOUR HORSEMEN ATTUCKS PATRONS CLAMORING FOR FOUR HORSEMEN The Attucks patronage has been clamoring for Ibanez's "Four Horsemen," featuring Rudolph Valentino which is playing a Lowe's State Theatre before large audiences at every performance. So insistent have been these clamoring that Mr. Kelley, manager of the theatre has been persuaded to get in touch with the booking, agencies and make an effort to secure this picture for the local play house. Mr. Kelley immediately got in touch with the agency and has been assured an early booking for the Attucks, which will offer his patronage an opportunity to see this wonderful screen productions. The Attucks has always made it a policy to cater to the wishes of its vast following and in trying to book the "Four Horsemen," it has made another step that is in keeping with this policy. This Week's Attraction "Sea Horses," that melodramatics in story of adventure on land and sea which created such a furor when in appeared serially in "Everybody's Magazine" last year, has been transferred to the screen by Paramount under the personal supervision of Allan Dwan. It will be the main film attraction at the Attucks, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. "Sea Horses" centers around the thrilling experiences of a lovely cultured English girl who obtain passage on an ocean freight to going to East Africa. She learns that her husband has the ingenuity that unicivilized corpse in the war. Florence Vidor, who portrays the role, is always the vortex of a whippool of drama action. The ship's captain, Jack Holt, falls in love with her though he knows her to be another man's wife. Wednesday's attraction will feast nightgirl Negri in "Good and Naughty" one of her latest and best productions. The intelligence of a splendid horse who knows the hiding place of the loot stolen from the rail road forms the keystone of an unusual western story in which Tom Tyler and his Pals—"Your Gang"—will be seen next Saturday only "Flash" "Sittin' Bull" and "big par" Frankie Davro all play him in the laquered FRO staring vehecle, which William E.

Robert De Lacey wielded the knife he has in all Tyler's films and has made the most out of matter rich in all the elements of entertainment. For a hard-hitting, hard-writing, hard laughing show, it is the cat's trouser scan! pushing the ball nearer the coveted goal. Gay hit for 1 yard and on the next play, pushed over for a touchdown. West made the extra point with a neatly executed field goal, sending the ball over the fence. From this point on, the big team rumped and rumped, fighting desperately to register another touchdown, but the "Y" fought equally as hard to prevent this. In the second half, Bibbins was sent in to relieve Gordan and he showed rare form in carrying the ball. The entire team worked better in this game than it has in any previous games. Every man borne the burden of his position and played it without a fault. Jordan displayed unusual form in this game, figuring in nearly every play Newport News started. Booth in for Jackson, showed tiptop form, smashing in and smearing many of the opposition's play. Everybody that played in the backfield was put notch the running Hill, Bibbins and Gordan and the line smashing. Chambleir and Gordan were the outstanding features of the day. Tolliver, Thornton and Dalla proved a bulwark of strength on the ends, while West, Smith, and Jackson charged in many times to pile up Newport News plays. THE LINEUP N. A. C.—9 Newport N.—0 Dallas L.

Hucles, considered among the best football mentors, came to Union this year as coach of the Paving Panthers, after a successful year at Prairie View in Texas. Prior to this, he had been at Shaw two years, at which time he turned out worthy teams. Hucles is a Union man, being named as all-American quarterback for two years. He says, going back to Union is like going back home. His team has won our games this year and is leading in the race for the C. I. A. Championship. Coach Hucles says his team is in tip-to shape and he expects nothing short of a brilliant victory over Va. Seminary here Monday. He said: "Norfolk is a fine town and I like it about as well as any place I've been. I have played in Norfolk, while with Union and have carried teams there to play. Norfolk has a wonderful reputation in it and the fans seem to like us. We have never lost there and when I carry the team there for Monday's game, I shall expect to keep that record intact."

M. ium AFFAIR HOLDS PROMISE OF BEING ONE OF BEST STAGED ON LOCAL LOT; STARTS 3 P.M. By WILLEY A. JOHNSON, JR. A blare of trumpet sounds, banners flaunting gallantly in the air, a stream of red and steele here and dabs of blue and white there, deafening huzzas along the thoroughfares and the exuberance of old grads, under grads, well wishers and other supernumeraries piercing the ordinary hubbub and noise of the busy cities—all of this will be ostentatiously evidenced this coming Monday when the caravans of the Demon Deacons, of Va. Seminary and the Pawing Panthers, of Va. Union began their journeys to League Park to engage in what holds all indications of being the most outstanding gridiron battle ever enacted on the local lot between any elevens of our group and possibly other groups. Both teams will come here fresh from victories over worthy opponents and no injuries of any moment were suffered which would have a tendency of depreciating the strength of the squads. They will come with full strength, prepared to play one of the hardest games either have been called on to play to the present time. Not only do they come fully prepared, they also come equally matched, more evenly matched than any college eleven that have played in this section for some time. Line for line, backfield for backfield and man for man, Union and Seminary stack up neck and neck. Both teams carry some of the best in the C. I. A. A. men who have been selected as all-C. I. A. A. A. and all-Americans by leading sport experts, and these same men have been running to their best this year, carrying their best on many occasions, carrying their respective elevens to brilliant victories. Much Flash And Dash For flash, dash, brilliance and that which borders on the scintillating, and the rest of it, this game should furnish. There should be as much glow and glamor in this game as any one would desire. When any team has a Shields, McFarland, Cotten, Moten, Brown, and a Wheedle, it has an attraction; goes beyond anything the team must up to pass in group. Seminary and Union are strong contenders in the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association and this game here will go a long way in deciding the final results in the association. Union is leading by a fair margin, with only two teams having any chance of threatening her position. Seminary and Hampton are the two teams of checking the greatest chances of checking her march to the championship and the Panthers point. Seminary here Monday. The Demon Deacons got off at a slow start at the beginning of the season, but now the boys have rounded into splendid shapes and have knocked them silly. At the same time, Union got off with a burst of speed and has been maintaining it until this time, swiping all topposition before cheering, beating, clapping, dunned and baffled team. Seminary has turned in a pair of good wins and held Hampton on even terms. Decides Other Things Not only will this game here play an important part in changing the standing of these teams in the championship dash. It will be the honors of individuals will be greatly affected. Both Union and Seminary furnish players for the all-C. I. A. A. mythical eleven and these same men that were selected are in harness this year and displaying much of their last season's form, at the same time playing hard to be a repeater. They are fighting against some stiff opposition, for there are men on these teams, who have never been mentioned on the mythical eleven, that are waging a consistent fight for births this year. They are giving the old fellows a run for it. There is Tobin, captain of the Union delegation, who was picked on the first team last year and shows all signs of repeating this year, while Walker, of Seminary, playing his first year at the pivot position, is coming at the fence. Jimmy Shields, the fleece-footed Union back, dropped one of the scheme before it was said and done. Shields seems to be a sure thing, with Moore, of Seminary pushing him hard and Moore is playing his first year on the Deacon squad and has proved a worthy first string man, being one of the chief ground gainers for Seminary. There comes Wheedee, Seminary quarter back and captain, two-time all-American, and all-C. T. A. A. man. Wheedee has been showing rare form in some of the recent games, like Breaux, turned the boy quarterback has generated. Union to her four victories. Wheedee has been toughing to step by the Union quarter and maintain the lead. Breaux seems to be right there with the goods, beirr a good general, possessed. With w or f passing and kicking ability. These things stamped Wheedee as the most outstanding quarterback. There comes Bumble Brown, who was accidentally overlooked when he pickers were picking last year, but landed a borne on the Journal guide's all-American selection and his playing ability to this time has made us feel justified in selecting him. They might come as good, but they don't come better than Brown. He has played important parts in Seminary vie- todies and he comes around this year with, apparently better form than last. To this time, Brown seems to stand head and shoulders above the other fullbacks in these parts. Then, in the line, the Deacons have Tucker and Polk, who are worth while candidates for positions this year. Union has Ruffin and Anderson. Arrangements Complete All arrangements for this game have been completed in every detail and one of the largest and most colorful crowds is expected to witness the fray. Reports coming from Richmond say that 1000 fans, students and old grads will come here for the game, while those from Lynchia a state that 750 will be on hand to support Seminary. The Richmond delegation will come here by special train. "The Red and Stieke Special" General holiday has been declared at both schools and every body that's anybody will be here Monday, from both towns. At night after the game, a gala reception will be the order of the night at Phyllis Whately Garden. Dancing will be from 9 to 12 p. m. ST. PAUL FALLS AGAIN BEFORE HAMPTON CLAN BY MILLEY A. JENSON, JR. Russell Field, Lawrenceville, Va. Oct. 33—Fighting doggedly against the Sensiders' battering assault and hurt her own inferiority-complex. SL Paul fell victim again to the Sensiders by a score of 14-3. He battled every inch of the way but they failed to display that pumice and snap that was in evidence in the Union game, which preceded today's tray. But they did play a brand of football that was vastly different from most of the games against their ancient rival. Hampton was a much improved team in today's game and she battled desperately to pile up a score on St. Paul, but the Tigers fought back hard and strong at most times and the Sensiders were forced to kick. Secures Early The break in the game came early and Hampton immediately took advantage of it and drew first blood when Thatcher went over for the initial touchdown. Hampton received 'the kick-off and Robinson brought the ball up for 20 yards and began cautiously. Baker kicking on the first down. Kicking with the wind. Baker was able to send the ball far down into St. Paul's territory. Two attempts to advance on the Scasiders failed to net St. Paul much distance and both cut out of danger. Baker only hit the ball once distance in the face of a high wind. Hampton took the ball and began her battering that soon netted a tally with Williams and Thatcher doing the work and the latter going over from the 1 1-2 yard line. Baker easily drop-kicked for the extra point. From this point, the two teams waged a hot fight, frequently kicking to gain an advantage. In the second quarter, with Smith and Deane working in good form, St. Paul uncoached an attack in an effort to catch the lead established by her opponent, but this spurt was short lived and most the Tigers could get, was a field goal that was neatly sent across the upright by Jimmy Hudson. Hampton started another drive that, seemingly caught St. Paul asleep and drove far down into her territory, but the Tigers rose to the emergency and checked this drive and held the Hamptonians, to the second half Hampton attempted to score again in a field goal, but St. Paul was too fast on the charge and blocked Elmer Baker's kick. In an effort to recover the ball St. Paul tumbled and Hampton recovered on the 20-yard line. After an exchange of units, the Seasiders were successful in rushing down the field. Williams taking the ball on one play, carried it for 39 vards, placing it on St. Paul's 5-yard line. On the first thrust at the line, Thatcher got 1 yard. Williams came back to get 2 1-2 and on the next play, carried it over and Baker made the extra point. This was in the final quarter when Hampton scored her last touchdown after both teams had played through the third postal Scares Early The above photo shows the entire Union squad which will be seen in action here Monday against Lynchburg. From left to right, Moore, Brown, Wheedbee and Davis, Seminary's chief ground gainers. They will figure largely in the game here Monday. Hampton played a steady and consistent game throughout the entire fray, with Williams and Thatcher proving to be the main factors in the ground gaining. In the final quarter, Byrd was successful in getting off a long run. The entire Hampton line played a hard game, crashing innumerable times to stop St. Paul's back. Though St. Paul's game today was not as brilliant and dashing on the game the previous week, she did put up an offensive and defensive game that was far better than prior games with Hampton, and was able, in this game, to hold the Scensaders to 14 points. Smith and Deane were the big guns on the offense or the lions, while the line play of Pierce and Williams played a stumbling block on many occasions. Byrd, St. Paul's most consistent ground gainer is on the injured list and was unable to be in uniform for this game. Hampton got seven first downs while St. Paul was collecting five. Hampton completed two out of eight attempted forward passes and the Tigers got out of out of Hampton 14. St. Paul 3. Substitutes: Hampton Briggs for Byrd, St. Paul; Olivier for Robin, Mason for J.

SILVER OFFERING AT THE DOOR NEWS OF THE CHURCHES "THE SECRET OF CHRIST'S FULNESS" A. M. M. TOPIC Ministers Hear Paper by Rev. D. F. Gladney The Rev. D. F. Gladney, pastor of Mt. Zion African Methodist Church, read a paper Tuesday before the Norfolk A. M. E. Preachers' Meeting on "The Secret of Christ Fullness." This paper and the open discussion which followed constituted the major program for the day. The principal points emphasized by the Rev. Mr. Gladney were: "The secret of the fullness of Christ is in His taking to Himself a reasonable body and a true soul. * * * His fullness gives him all power in heaven and on earth. To Him is committed the office of judgment and He shall finally judge all men. He is exalted in leadership over the church. * * * It is the Son Incarnate, the Christ in our nature in whom such powers of government are invested. "His fullness is shown in the formula of Baptism, * * * in the Divine love." The paper was discussed by Revs. M. E. Davis, J. A. Young and B. E. Evans, the commentators agreeing that the subject had been handled in a thoroughly interesting and informing manner by the esvist. Rev. A. C. Clark, D. D., pastor of A. M. E. Church was selected to make an address of welcome to the A. M. E. Zion conference which meets November 24th at Garvet Temple on behalf of the body. Rev. L. L. Berry, D. D., pastor of St. John's A. M. E. Church, addressed the meeting on behalf of the Community Fund drive. The conference adopted a resolution pledging its moral support to the Fund. Rev. Dr. M. E. Davis spoke for the Negro Organization Society urging the institution to attend the meeting of the society, which will be held at Cape Charles next week. The A. M. E. Preachers' Meeting is held at 11:00 o'clock each Tuesday at St. John A. M. E. Church Rev. G. C. Taylor, D. D., of Newport News, is president and Rev. D. F. Gladney of Norfolk, secretary. Rev. Mr. Askew Says That He Is Through With Party Politics Rev. J. R. Askew, evangelist, who has during previous political campaigns had decided leanings toward the Democratic party, and who openly supported the Democratic ticket in the last presidential campaign, now comes out with the following statement which he gave the Journal and Guide Tuesday: "I want it thou art given with Southern politics, and I am done with all party affiliations. From now on I will support the man that will stand for my race having their constitutional rights as American citizens. All I have said and done politically has been with the view of helping my race in the South, and I am through with any party or man that is prejudiced to my race having their constitution rights as American citizens. For the sake of social equality with any other race, because I am deeply in love with my own. All I want is their constitutional rights as citizens." DOUGLASS LITERARY SOCIETY RE-UNION AT HOLY TRINITY The Douglas Literary Society will hold its reunion, ovation and re-organization Sunday, November 7, at 3 P. M., at Holy Trinity Baptist Church, Barney Street, one block northwest of Chapel and Washington Avenue, when an elaborate program will be rendered. The event promises to be the best of its kind and all former members of the society are invited to attend. Wednesday night will be featured pictures showing Miami, Fla., before the hurricane visited it and after the storm, which will be accompanied by a lecture and a chorus of many voices, after which a special sermon on the subject: "God. A Shelter in a Storm," will be preached by Rev. A. C. Clark, pastor of Monumental A. M. E. Church. Admission will be free, but a silver offering will be taken at the door. SHILOH BAPTIST CHURCH A number of members and friends came out to Sunday to greet the pastor, Rev. V. V. K. Stokes, who has just come out from a month's illness. Rev. Mr. Felton, a visiting pastor, preached the morning sermon. Several persons joined the church. At night, Rev. Mr. Felton preached another able sermon, and the male chorus rendered choice music. The pastor is asking the members and friend come out Sunday morning and hear sermon for the benefit of Shiloh growth. The Sunday School was largely attended, each teacher and officer being in place. The school is trying out a plan to rid the street corners of large crowds during the school hour, and public co-operation is asked. The superintendent is very much interested in the matter and all the officers of the school are endeavoring to impress the pupils with the importance of soul- A Thanksgiving Assembly at the First Baptist Sunday Night A great Thanksgiving Assembly will be staged at the First Baptist Church this Sunday night at 7:30 o'clock. Workers and directors in the church's recent successful rally will occupy special seats. This will afford the general public its first opportunity of seeing the church's working organization together. A special Children's Chorus of nearly forty voices will be seated in the east gallery. One hundred and twelve leaders, the heads of fifteen auxiliaries and departments, and the thirty-five members of the Birthday Cake Committee will take up the entire ten rows of pews in the center aisle. The instrumental prelude to the service will be rendered by Mr. Lawrence Harrison on the organ with orchestral accompaniment. Everyone is urged to come on time, as the service will be changed and shortened. Following a special sermon by the pastor will come a surprise feature in connection with the period of thanksgiving and intercession. As soon as all imports have been completed, a letter of thanks will be published mentioning the names of individuals and corporations aiding the church in its recent financial effort. The pastor and officers have repeatedly stressed the obligation they were under to the entire community. By means of such outside help "First Baptist" has been enabled to run a home for the aged which cared for thirteen guests last winter. Three deaths and one removal have reduced the present number of guests to nine. Each of these is being comfortably cared for. Medical and nursing attention is more than adequate. Dr. R. J. Mathews has been the house physician for a number of years. He is ably assisted by Dr. U. S. G. Jones, Dr. F. W. James, specialist, Dr. A. J. Wells, dentist, and Mrs. Eliza B. Clark, King's Daughters' nurse. Deacon and Mrs. Philip McRae have served six years as caretaker and matron, respectively. Mrs. Elizabeth Watson is the assistant matron. Five different churches of three different denominations are represented by the present guests. All deficits in the support of these persons are borne by the church and its friends. MT. LEBANON BAPTIST CHURCH Services at Mt. Lebanon last Sunday were highly spiritual, beginning with the early morning prayer meeting. Sunday school was interestingly conducted and the financial reports of the various classes were creditable, the adult class holding the banner for the largest offering. In the morning the pastor preached an eloquent sermon from Exodus 20:12. In the afternoon the Missionary Circle had a very good meeting. The B. Y. P. U. rendered a program at 5:30 o'clock. At night Rev. Dr. A. J. Nottingham, presiding elder of the Richmond District of the A. M. E. Church, preached a great sermon from Isa. 62:10. Three persons joined the church. On next Sunday morning the pastor will preach on the Sixth Commandment. Farewell Testimonial Extended Rev. Dr. R. H. Walker A representative audience assembled at Second Calvary Baptist Church Tuesday night last, the occasion being the tendering of a farewell reception to Dr. R. H. Walker, noted evangelist of New York, who has been in this section for the past four months conducting a series of evangelistic services. On the rostrum were prominent clergymen from various denominations. Rev. Walker was introduced by Dr. C. P. Madison, who referred to the fine work accomplished by Dr. Walker during his sojourn in Tidewater Virginia in glowing terms. Dr. Walker delivered a practical discourse on "Faith In One Another." The speaker stressed the point that while as a race group we had unlimited faith in God, we had, on the contrary, very little faith in each other, and it is this fact that keeps us far behind other race groups in great enterprises of worth and moment. These remarks were heard from Revs. Garrett, Lomax and Crisp, setting forth the value and their appreciation of the effective work done by Dr. Walker in Tidewater. A resolution from the Baptist Minister's Conference commending Rev. Dr. Walker for his able services rendered in the cause of moral uplift in Tidewater was read. Rev. R. H. Bowling sent a letter of commendation. Madame Pryor rendered a recitation that was well received. Just before the close, a silver offering was presented Dr. Walker in token of the esteem in which the large audience present held him and on behalf of the community. EVANGELIST ASKW TO BEACH AT WEST MUNDER SUNDAY Rev. J. R. Askew, the evangelist, will preach Sunday, November 7, at 3:30 P. M., at the First Baptist Church, West Munden, subject, "Baseball." Rev. Mr. Askew's sister, Mrs. Josephine Smallwood, of Windsor, N. C., spent a wock here with him. Mr. J. L. Thomas and his wife, Mrs. Sallie J. Thomas, were also here to visit Rev. and Mrs. J. R. Askew and were highly entertained by them. Rev. Mr. Askew, who may be reached at 513 Main Street, is open for preaching and lecture engagements. TEN CHURCHES OF BERKLEY CONCLUDE BIG UNION REVIVAL TEN CHURCHES OF BERKLEY CONCLUDE BIG UNION REVIVAL Unprecedented Spiritual Enthusiasm Precipitated By Combined Effort. The Union Revival just closed was one of the most successful ever held in this part of the city. Ten of the Berkley churches combined their forces led by the missionary circles, and for nearly three weeks the spiritual tide ran high with result that there were 80 additions to the churches and the memberships thoroughly revived. A number of elderly people were converted, four of these being over sixty years of age. The daily services began with a forenoon period of fasting and praying, and each noonday there was a prayer and praise service which often on account of the intense interest could not be closed until about two-thirty. After this cottage prayer meetings were held until 7:30. A number of conversions were had in these meetings. From 8 to 9 P. M. while one group was engaged in prayer service in the church, another marched through the streets. Many of those restored to membership became impressed by the marching band. A noonday service at Barnes' Factory resulted in three men being converted who worked there. Much credit is due to the pastors of the different churches who gave themselves wholly and unsparingly to the work, and also to the singers, who led the march through the streets. Weekly noonday and praise services will continue indefinitely. The one week being held at Central Baptist will there be a big Union Baptist service at 3 P. M. Sunday at First Baptist Church, Berkley. Rector Talks To Football Squad "The services at Grace Church last Sunday were especially impressive and inspiring. At the morning service to a good congregation Rev. Harris preached from Luke 15:29 on "The Christian's Attitude Toward Men." Some of the common reasons were pointed to to show why men fail in this cardinal Christian requirement—displaying a resentful, sensitive, egotistic attitude, jealousy and prejudice. He said that these characteristics often hurt the persons who indulge in them more than those against whom they are directed. At the evening service the Booker T. Washington High School Varsity was the special guests, being led by the coach, Prof. O. A. Wilson. In spite of the very bad weather at the time of the service, every one of them was present together with a number of friends and followers. Rev. Harris began by saying that in spite of the fact that many older people were saying that the younger generation was becoming Godless, he believed if they were not seen these young men, how heartily and reverently they entered into the service, they would be compelled to revise their critical opinions. Rev. Harris preached a special sermon for these young men, taking his text from John 10:10. He began by defining religion as the "Life of God in the soul of a man." As he proceeded he showed how ambition, the fighting spirit, leadership and unity of action all of which were developed on the gridiron may be fruitful in later life when they are moved by the greatness of the people. Ted Wilson followed Rev. Harris with words of appreciation for the invitation to the services and spoke of the high ideals both of sportsmanship and manhood which he was trying to give the young men under his direct control. Dr. S. F. Coppage, who is one of the C. I. A. A. officials and whose duties carry him all over Virginia and the last speaker. Dr. Coppage stresses particularly the value of co-operation as developed on the gridiron in after life. HOLY, TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH (Barney Street) The congregation of Holy Trinity Baptist Church was much encouraged last Sunday by the attendance, interest and enthusiasm manifested in the Sunday School, which convened in 10 A. M. At 11:30 the pastor preached a stirring sermon on the subject: "We Drank Deep From the Well of Salvation." At 5 P. M. the Junior Douglass assembled in large number, and after opening and discussion of the subject, "Christ Is Our Deliverer," an appropriate program was rendered. The evening services were very inspiring, though not largely attended. The pastor sought to impress upon those present the necessity of maintaining a place of worship within the immediate community. The church looks forward with interest to the re-inforcement of the general assembly of the Missionary Band which will take place Sunday at 3:30 P. M., led by the volunteer missionaries of the city.

Gets Verdict of $200 Against Police Officers (Continued from Page One) passing them on the way. They contended that he was not struck by either of them. In Perkins' arrest he was charged with aiding and abetting prostitution, upon which he was dismissed when arraigned in Police Court the following morning. In the Circuit Court he contended that one of the officers entered his premises in company with the woman and seeing them there he uttered the protest whereupon he was set upon by the defendants. He is the owner of the Charlotte street address, he declared. The woman testified that she did not know Perkins. The incident occurred a few days after Mr. Perkins and his bride had returned to the city from a honeymoon trip. ST. JAMES' A. M. E. CHURCH SOUTH NORFOLK Rev. G. O. Wing. Pastor The pastor preached a strong, earnest sermon at 11 a.m. from St. Mark 10:21—"One Thing Thou Lackest"—and made a deep impression on his hearers. The audience was favored with the presence of Rev. and Mrs. Robert Davis, Mrs. Rodgers and Mrs. Bailey Sunday morning. Although the rain poured, it did not keep the music lovers of Berkley and vicinity from attending the fifth Sunday high concert at E. Chancellor Math interest and enthusiasm were manifested by the audience during the rendition of the program. The choir appreciated the presence of their friends Sunday night and thanks Mr. Charles Hollis for a vocal solo, Mr. Theophilus Linnett for a saxophone solo, and Mr. E. C. Crocker for a cello solo. The Little Entertainers Club composed of tots enjoyed a very pleasant time on Wednesday evening at the home of Miss Hallowen party was given. Miss Rebecca James and Miss Leonn Edwards were the promoters. Little Mary Brickhouse is the president and little Thelma Hoggard is the secretary. BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH The members are taking on new life, more interest is being manifested and it is plainly seen that love and harmony exist among them under the leadership of the pastor, Rev. R. L. Harris. A good number were present and a splendid offering given on last Sunday. The pastor's discourse was taken from Nahum 1:7: "The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble and knoweth you the trust in him; and knoweth you the subject to that dwelling in the nearest place of the most high shall abide under the shadow of the almighty," Psalm 81:1. Both subjects were interestingly discussed. On next Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock a candle light service will be held. Mrs. A. Carter, leader. The public is invited.

The mob committed the violence August 19, last. Dave Wright was a white man. ST. PETER'S COMMUNITY CHURCH (Nicholson and Lincoln Sts.)

Our revival is still in progress and excellent results are in evidence. Rev. Taylor did not return, but the Lord has just as remarkable speaker in Rev. Bowens, "the Eastern Shore Thunderbolt," who is assisting the pastor this week. Spiritual enthusiasm runs high and genuine interest is on the increase. Rev Johnson preaches twice Sunday from very interesting texts. You are welcome. WESLEY UNION A. M. E. ZION Sunday, November 6, is the first Sunday in the month and the last Sunday of the conference year for communion service of Zion churches in Virginia. For that reason it is heaped that all the members will be present to partake of the Holy Sacrament.

L.SNYDER 151 Church Street Between Plume and Cover Streets BAPTISTS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM PIONEERS Conference Speaker Pays Eloquent Tribute To The Heritage of Church discussion at the weekly session of the Norfolk Portsmouth Ministerial Conference Monday. The was by Rov. Adolphus Hobbs, D. D., pastor of Jerusalem Baptist Church. It provoked much discussion and was pronounced by those who participated in the discussion a scholarly presentation of the Rev. A. Holdbs subject. "Freedom of mind and conscience was the first, the bedrock of Baptists," declared Dr. Hobbs in outlining the early history of the church. "Of all the religious bodies in the world, the Baptists alone had grasped the woman's idea of the soul's competency in religion. "The first man on British soil to plead for complete religious liberty was a Baptist, who was roasted alive." Pastor Talks on "Financing the Church" Instructive and convincing was the sermon delivered by Rev. G. W. Watkins, D. D., during the morning service at the Bank Street Baptist Church, Sunday. Rev. Watkins spoke on "Financing the Church's Cause." The discourse brought out the fact that the Bible plan in the Old Testament was that of the title system for financing projects relating to the promotion of Divine worship. There were various offerings, title of a title, freewill, etc. The freewill offering is especially noteworthy as being given for building purposes. The New Testament particularly instructs in the manner in which we are to give. Not grudgingly, not M. D. W. sparingly, neither by constraint nor necessity, but willingly, cheerfully, regularly, and according to the individual income. The church, or the cause of Christ, should be supported liberally because of what the church stands for or represents, because of our debt to God who gives us strength to oarn money whether that strength be physical or intellectual. Not the least should we return, but the best, for God gives His best. Jesus Christ sacrificed His all for us. Aside from a duty, it is a glorious privilege to give in the cause of Christ. Rev. Watkins closed with the thought that the kingdom through support of the church is to be perpetuated. Former Newport News Pastor Is Succeeding in Paterson, New Jersey Reports reaching here from Patterson, N. J., state that Rev. A. Alfred Watts, former pastor in Newport News, now pastoring Calvary Baptist Church, Patterson, is meeting with very encouraging assistance on his new field. On last Sunday Rev. Mr. Watts and his congregation launched a $2,000 drive which is to run until February, 1927. Rev. W. D. Yerhy, B. D., newly-elected pastor of Mt. Bethel Baptist Church, Ridgewood, N. J., with his chair and congregation, served at Calvary for the opening service of this drive, at which time $224.9 was raised. Rev. Mr. Yerhy preached an able sermon on the subject, "Filling Your Water Pot." At night an audience almost taxing the capacity of the spacious auditorium greeted the pastor, who delivered an able message from James 3:5-6. The members of Calvary believe they are witnessing the dawn of a new day in the spiritual and material life of the church under the leadership of the former Newport News pastor.

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.

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.

Father And Sons" Banquet For Better Understanding Between Parent and Youth Bleigh, N. C.—Last year 823 boys in the state of North Carolina conducted agricultural projects to completion," stated Prof. S. B. Simmons, State Supervisor of Vocational Agriculture," and a total of $50,000 was the income these projects." S. B. Simmons and F. Marcellus Stalley, director of the agricultural department at A. and T. College were attending the father and son banquet in connection with the discursive conference for vocational teachers at the Warren County Training School, Wise, N. C. The Father and Son Banquet is becoming an important resource to bring about a personal pleasant understanding between the boys on the boys and their fathers. Professor Simmons stated further, "One important aim of the project is to have them so arranged to help fathers." Professor F. Marcellus Staley, emphasized the fact that the boys in the country are to take the steps of their fathers and they should be given the right to be well fed, well fed, well educated, and mostly trained. "It is quite evident that the boys are being well fed but very little attention is given to boys being taught to encourage them to higher education A. & T. College and similar institutions in the country. The district conference represents the first of a series of such meetings for this year that are held annually in the state for the improvement of vocational agricultural work in our rural schools. The important problem emphasized as in this meeting was the organization of classes for the boys who have frontruned their schooling and are remaining on the farm. A reef from the division of vocational education of the U. S. department of agriculture shows that there are more boys of school age in school than boys actually attending schools in the rural district. Notice:—Brother Lost J. V.

H CARO WILMINGTON HI WINS JOURNAL A WILMINGTON HI SCHOOL STUDENT WINS JOURNAL AND GUIDE TROPHY WILMINGTON HI SCHOOL STUDENT WINS JOURNAL AND GUIDE TROPHY Writer Of Editorial "High School Athletics" To Be Awarded Silver Cup John McCoy, of Williston High School, Wilmington, N.C., of which D. C. Virgo is the principal, has been awarded the Journal and Guide trophy offered last year for the best editorial appearing in a North Carolina high school paper, according to announcement made a few days ago by J. K. Hilyard, principal of Peabody Academy, Troy, N. C., and chairman of the high school editorial contest committee. Two hundred and eighty editors appeared in high school publications of North Carolina during the scholastic year 1925-1926, says Mr. Hilyard, who adds, "and the contest has done much to foster an interest in journalism and specially the editorial actions of newspapers. Several men stated throughout the year that they had noticed their students reading the editorial sections of our newspapers more than they had done formerly." "On behalf of the committee in charge of the editorial contest and all of the standard high schools of North Carolina which were contestants in this contest I wish to thank you for this trophy which you offered and which has proven to be an incentive of inestimable value," concludes Mr. Hilyard, in expressing appreciation for the Journal and Guide's Cup. The final judge of the editors' award, Benjamin Bellevue, head of the Department of English of Shaw University, and an outstanding, author, scholar and literary expert, who in deciding the winner stated, "No one of the editors', of course, is a finished piece of work, no one being well organized. The best is seems to me, is "High School Athletics." The cup will be presented to the winner at the annual meeting of the North Carolina Negro Teachers' Association which convenes at Livingstone College, Salisbury, on December 24. The winner will be present and read his editorial in person. The editorial contest will be an annual affair and according to the announcement made by the editor of the Journal and Guide at the time the trophy was offered, has for its purpose "to promote the writing of good editorials." Trophy For Virginia Schools Next Scholastic year the Journal and Guide propose to offer a similar trophy for an editorial course in the high school papers of Virginia, provided the school principals manifest an interest in the affair sufficient to warrant such action on the part of this newspaper. The Prize Winning Editorial HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETICS There has been much discussion recently, both pro and con, on the subject, "High School Athletics." Some authorities have used every conceivable method to give the matter nation-wide publicity. Some authorities claim that too time is given to athletics and on the other hand too little given to real school work, hence the evil of it. These masters of erudition take little or no forethought before their deluge of criticisms. They think not of what a student's life would be without athletics, moreover, they magnify beyond recognition the very few possible defects of "High School Athletics." In a day like this when youth is so lively, so free, and so adventurous, nothing is more necessary than a strong, healthy body, with good machine-like regulations, a body that is able to supply energy for the body's taking. But how are they to acquire such bodies if they are not allowed to continue developing them in high school? It is admitted by many that habits made in high school have a tendency to follow one throughout life. If this be true, then, surely there could be no better habit than the habit of taking much exercise. It is plainly obvious to all that the great stars of Sportsdom would not have won the honor and devotion of all the world, had not athletics be a part of their high school curricula. Red Grange and Deffarl Hubbard, both athletes of the first water, had not little training in their high school days. As college students they acquired much fame for themselves as well as for their respective Alma Matters. These young men, when their college days are over, would beft any community as good citizens. To them the benefits derived from athletics can never be replaced by anything else, for the body in every way and have realized that only such a body can keep healthy and beget healthy - offsprings. From athletics they have learned self-control, quickness of thought and keenness of mind. Athletics creates within any student school spirit as well as a sense of fair play. In that critical period of a student's life known as the "teen" age there is a constant demand for energy and more energy, and unless the supply is sufficient to meet the demand there is a possibility of danger to the body, perhaps a rundown state or even sickness will result. We often speak of the great Lincoln, but we dwell mostly on his mental development rather than on his physical potency. No one of that age possessed any more physical strength than did Hercules. Such body and mind of state, that play so upon the emotions of man, as confronted Lincoln could not have been borne by him had he been a weakling. Picture him, tall, sinewy, and grave, confronted with the mammoth questions of slavery and secession, and feel with him as he goes about day after day seeking some solution to these problems finally finding them and applying the solution to an algebraic equation. We all, no doubt, know the story of "Lincoln as a Respirator," to a great extent responsible for his strong, muscular body. But today there are no rails to split. If every high school would allow more time for athletics some of them would eventually lose that prison like atmosphere that students associate with most schools. Athletics do not lessen the students' ability to do good work, but aid him to think more quickly and more accurately. All great men have in some great or small way. If schools would give more time to athletics, we would sooner than we think develop a stronger physical manhood.

Bertha Lowman was shot twice in the left breast just about the heart and once through the chest. Clarence Lowman was also severely injured while Demon Lowman was shot but not wounded seriously. Sheriff Howard was killed by gunshot wounds and, in the first three state's witnesses testified that a pistol bullet went through his head. The Sheriffs had pistols. Clarence Lowman had a shotgun while Demon Lowman had a pistol but at no time was anywhere near Sheriff Howard or at a point where he could have shot the Sheriff. In the trial it was brought out that the white men did not in any manner indicate they were officers of the law. Hasty Trial Amid High Tension "Five of the Lowmans were arrested and moved hastily to the penitentiary at Columbia to avoid a lynching. According to the record of the South Carolina State Supreme Court, the shooting took place on April 25, Howard's funeral on the 26th (at which were present more than 200 Klansmen in full regalia, inquest was held on the 27th, the court convened on May 4, the indictment of the Lowmans was had the same day, the defendants were arraigned on the 9th and placed on trial May 12 Feeding was so high in Aiken, according to the defense brief in the Supreme Court, it was published to the world that it would be difficult to law against lawyers in Aiken. Attorneys were appointed by the court, who merely went through the gestures of defending them. In his charge to the jury, Judge H. F. Rice, knowing of the danger to the lawyers, even though appointed, by the court, apologized for the formal defense made by them and impressed upon the jury the fact that "none of them wanted to do it." "Bortha, Demon and Clarence were found guilty of murder with a recommendation of mercy in the case of Bortha. Demon and Clarence were sentenced to die on June 12, 1925, and Bortha to life imprisonment. It is worthy of note that Bortha and Clarence Lowman's lives were on their hands in the balance on their hands at the ballet were placed on trial and they were taken from the hospital to the court room. "The case was so outrageous that N. J. Frederick, a colored attorney of Columbia, on his own initiative, entered the case and filed an excellent appeal to the State Supreme Court for a review of the cases, resulting in a reversal of the convictions and the remanding of the defendants for a new trial. The three defendants were again placed on trial October 5 at Ailson, Judge Lanham presiding. Mr. Frederick retained L. G. Southard, a white attorney of Spartanburg, paying him $125 out of his pocket. Messrs. Frederick and Southard put up a magnificent defense and completely demolished the State's case.

It was generally conceded in Aiken that Clarence and Bertha would be freed by the jury the next day. At 5 in the afternoon Judge Lanham granted the motion for the dismissal of the case against Demon. He was however immediately rearrested on a charge of assault and battery and recommitted to jail. The Lynching Planned By Ku Klux Klan "Within one hour, after the Judge's decision, news had been sent to as distant a point as Columbia that the 3 Lowmans were to be lynched that night. Within the same hour, the Ku Klux Klan held a meeting in the office of a prominent white attorney of Aiken who had been recently elected to the State. Legislature. At this meeting plans were perfected for the lynching and also plans were discussed, but abandoned, to tar and feather Mr. Frederick and to castrate Mr. Southard, the white attorney. A prominent and rebenabled white lawyer of Spartanburg warned James Lamb and Solitaire Bert Carter that a lynching was in the air. Despite this the Lowmans were committed to ail with only one guard whose plans had been made to remove the defendants should they be convicted. "Shortly after midnight a police officer of Aiken forced automobiles to remove cars from around the jail so that the lynchers would have a place to park their cars. According to reliable informants Sheriff Robinson, Deputy Sheriffs McIlhannay and A. D. Sheppard, and Traffic Policeman_Salley dragged Bertha Lowman from her cell, got the other 2 defendants and handed them over to the mob. After the mob had secured the prisoners 2 shots were fired inside the jail and not, as Sheriff Robinson claimed, when he was trying to prevent entry' of the mob into the jail. "The mob numbering between 30 and 40 started out York Street on the Dixie Highway to a tourist camp about 2 miles from Aken. On the way Clarence Lowman jumped from the car in which he was held. He was shot down and recaptured. In order to prevent telltale blood marks, a rope was tied to the back of the car and the other end of it around Clarence's body. In this manner he was dragged about a mile to the place of execution. The members of the mob stated that Bertha was the hardest one to kill. She was shot but not killed instantly. She dragged itself off the car as one member of the mob put it, "blessed like a goat." Another member of the mob, slightly more decent, said that she begged, so pitifully for her life and squirred about so that a number of shots had to be fired before one found a vital spot and ended her agony. Facts Given to South Carolina's Governor "I have furnished Thomas G. McLeod, Governor of South Carolina in a 6-page letter, every detail regarding the lynching. I have given him the name of the member of the mob who was accorded 'the honor' of being executioner but whose nerve failed him. I have furnished him with the names of the three men who did act as executioners and of their 2 assistants. I have furnished him with names and addresses and occupations of 2 officers of the modelling to Governor in detail of the art played by each one of the art at the lynching. I have furnished him with the names of all persons who were very close to the lynching as spectators but who did not actively participate in it. "This list includes besides the Sheriff and his deputies other-so-called law-enforcement officers, prominent business men and three men related to the Governor and the name of at least one member of the Grand Jury investigating the lynching. I also furnished the Governor with the names of four white men and one color-jail incarcerated in the lynching, the night of the lynching, and who saw the Sheriff and his deputies drag Bertha Lowman from her cell and turn her over to the mob. I have also stated to the Governor that I can furnish him with the names and address of most infiducible and respectable white citizens of the community who will testify to the correctness of the facts set forth, if the Governor will guarantee them protection from the vengeance of the Klar and the lynchers. Attempt To Stage Race Riot "Following the lynching an attempt was made to stage a race to cover the guilt of the murders. Agents of the Klan went around Aiken saying the Negroes were armed and were group 'rise in the night and kill all the white people.' These same tactics were used as in the famous Phillips County Arkansas, riots 1019, with the N. A. A. C. P. exposed. Fortunately this dastardly attempt did not succeed. I learned that the inevitable aftermath of Klan activities is now being seen in South Carolina. The element of membership which acted as a restraining influence in the Klan and which entered the movement believing it to be a law-enforcement body as it claimed, as largely resigned. The local Klan are now in the hands of murderers, bootleggers, operators of stills and other criminals. As I have said the law-abiding element of whites are living in a state of constant terror and indeed are more afraid of the Klan. and of the lower order of whites than are Negroes. HERE TO STUDY INTERRACIAL WORK IN SOUTH Commissioner of South Africa Visits Atlanta To Get Close-up Of Plan Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 3—Dr. C. T. Loram, of Pretoria, South Africa, British Commissioner for Native Affairs in the South African Union, was here last week studying the work of the Commission on Interracial Co-operation, seeking all the light possible upon the problems of racial adjustment with which he has to deal in his native country. As official mediator between the British government and the millions of South African natives, and also as the recognized leader of the most liberal British sentiment in relation to the interracial problem, Dr. Loram canyls rank as one of the most important and useful personages in the South African Union. For some time he has been planning to come to America to observe interracial conditions here, and particularly to study the interracial movement, which attracted his attention several years ago. To a representative of the Interracial Commission Dr. Loram said: "There appear to be many parallels between inter-racial conditions in America and those in South Africa, and we of the latter country find much to help us in your efforts in that field. Your interracial Movement especially has been a great inspiration to us, in that it illustrates the fact that good will and co-operation, rather than antagonism and violence, are the only effective methods of interracial adjustment. We have been watching the movement with the greatest interest and have already made considerable progress in reorganizing our work for the additives in a similar way, having set White Men Armed For Defense Against Klan "In the home of one white man, formerly a high officer in the Klan, and who resigned when he found out the nature of the movement, he showed me an automatic pistol which he carried in his trousers pocket and a 38 calibre revolver in a holster. He told me that if he went only across the road in front of his house after nightfall, a distance of some 75 feet, he scraped on his person, in addition, a cartridge belt and two 45 calibre army revolvers. "This man showed me a collection of 30 guns including rifles, shotguns and revolvers which he had in his home for self-protection. For 4 years the members of the Klan from which he has resigned have been attempting to kill him. The late Sheriff Howard, the present Sheriff Robinson and the present deputy sheriffs were all expelled from the Klan some years ago for 'conduct unbecoming a Klansman.' But they were later readmitted. On the anniversary of Sheriff Howard's death, the Klan held a celebration at his grave in the Graniteville Cemetery at which, according to the Columbia State, more than 1,500 sheriffs, many of them in Klan robes, were invited with free lunches, lemonade and listened to culques of the late Sheriff. This celebration took place while the State Supreme Court was deliberating on the appeal for a new trial for the Lowmans. "This makes the 41st lynching I have investigated, besides 5 race riots. In none of them have I seen the deprivacy, barbarity, and terrorism which exists in and near Alken. One of the white men with whom I talked and who gave me much valuable information, put his hand on my shoulder as I was leaving and said: 'Mr. White, work into your story the fact that you were sent by God. For 7 weeks a group of white people has met here in my house every night and prayed that some man from out of the State he sent to open up this mass of corruption and to publish to the world the terrible state of affairs prevailing here.

Dr. Loran expresses himself as greatly surprised and pleased with the progress of the Negro in this country, particularly along educational lines. Conditions, he said, were very much more encouraging than he expected to find. On this point he said, "The remarkable advance that the American Negroes have made in education and economic competence is very inspiring to those of us in South Africa who believe in the possibilities of the natives and in giving them opportunity for development, rather than in the too common attitude of cynicism and repression." The interracial councils, which Dr. Loran has organized and of which he is the recognized leader and spokesman, hold periodical meetings, discuss conditions frankly and seek to affect public sentiment and legislation in the interest of justice and opportunity for the natives. They have the support and co-operation of the most powerful and least attentive in South Africa and have been doing effective work.

Presence of Race Lad Cancels Four Games (Prepton News Service) Chambersburg, Pa., Nov. 5: On account of the undemocratic spirit of the various high school members of the Cumberland Valley Athletic League all four games have been cancelled because the local team has a Negro player on the team. The authorities of the local school would not play the games unless they could select the personnel of their own team. The game with Winchester, Va., was called off Thursday. Martinsburg, W. Va., Hagerstown, Md., and Waynesboro, Pa., had previously called off games with Chambersburg, for the same reason. The schools contend that a "gentleman's agreement" provided that no Negro player would be used in the game. The Chambersburg school officials declare that no such agreement existed.

W. R. Carpenter, a white man, of Brunswick county, has just been convicted in the Circuit Court at Lawrenceville of criminal assault upon a 16-year old colored girl and sentenced by Judge Peterson to serve a year in the penitentiary. Considering the gravity of the offense, the sentence appears exceedingly light, particularly does this seem so in face of the positively known fact that convictions of criminal assault in the courts of Virginia in all cases where the victim is white and the accused is colored, the death sentence is invariably the verdict. But the outcome of this trial is not to be snickered at. The verdict, though it might appear farcial, is clearly indicative of expanding Southern justice. It is a verdict which is entitled to be set down as marking a pronounced and welcomed change of Southern white sentiment regarding Negro womanhood. Not so long ago it would have been impossible to find a jury of Southern white men who were not convinced that it was the divine right of a white man to consort with a colored woman at his pleasure disdainful of how his victim felt about it. Any complaint on this score would have been laughed out of court. A Southern white commonwealth's attorney prosecuting such a case would have been considered a subject for a lunacy commission. The citizens of Brunswick county, white and colored, can take pride from the fact that in their community interracial harmony and common justice have advanced to the point where all womanhood commands respect. Judge Peterson, Commonwealth's Attorney B. A. Lewis and the jury are to be commanded for taking a stand that elevates female virtue, black or white. Incidentally, St. Paul Normal and Industrial School, for the training of Negro youth is situated at Brunswick county at Lawrenceville, and doubtless this institution has contributed immeasurably to interracial harmony in the surrounding section. Chest Fund Campaign This week the Community Chest F is in the midst of its campaign to raise 1927 budget for the support of the se social welfare agencies of the city aff with the Fund. This year, as form there are a number of agencies devoted closely to social service among the col This week the Community Chest Fund is in the midst of its campaign to raise the 1927 budget for the support of the several social welfare agencies of the city affiliated with the Fund. This year, as formerly, there are a number of agencies devoted exclusively to social service among the colored population enjoying affiliation with the Chest Fund, and $10,000 is the amount the Colored Division of the Community Fund hopes to raise for the partial maintenance of these agencies. Every person in the city, himself or herself at the present removed from the need of philanthropy, is expected and urged to contribute to the limit in the campaign. The obligation to minister to charity rests upon every one to the limit of his ability to meet it. The colored welfare agencies that have been allied with and have drawn support from the Chest Fund in the past three years have met the test. Their service has been scrutinized by social service experts and pronounced worthy and efficient. And those who have this service in charge have by day and by night succeeded distressed and helpless humanity; ministered to the physical and moral development of our boys and girls and sheltered our young women from influences that destroy character. Is this not a service that stirs the charitable impulse of every one? The fact might as well be faced that the time is already here when our group is expected more and more to assume the responsibilities of its own charities. Probably there is no more accurate gauge of a group's worthiness to acquire and to appreciate all of the fine attributes of civilization and citizenship than its response to the obligations of charity. In a measure, our group is now facing that test, and we cannot afford to disappoint either those who believe in us or those to whom we are duty bound to help. This year arrangements have been made that will aid the Colored Division of the Chest Fund to make a far better showing in the final results of its campaign than it has made during any previous year. All of the donations secured from colored workers in the industrial plants by white canvassers will be credited to the Colored Division. This arrangement has not prevailed in the past, and in view of the fact that the main source of donations from colored people is the industrial worker, our campaign has suffered. Our canvassers may be encouraged with the knowledge that even in places where they did not reach members of our race, if these persons are reached at all, their contributions are credited to our group. The campaign should prove a great success, and it will if every citizen will do his or her share to make it so.

This year has witnessed an over-production of the cotton crop which has brought a deflation of cotton prices and consequent distress to the planters. The Southern states produce the bulk of the world's cotton supply, hence an economic distress to cotton planters threatens economic crisis to the whole-South. It is an anamoly that in spite of the heavy migration in the past four years which has greatly depleted both the South's farm labor supply and farm supervision, this section still produces more cotton than the market can absorb. The main remedy advanced for the recurrence of a situation similar to the one experienced in the cotton area this year, and the remedy which has been unanimously endorsed by business men, bankers and statesmen is the curtailment of cotton production in the coming year. In this connection it should be borne in mind that one of the greatest drawbacks to the ultimate working out of this plan is the tenant farming system that prevails in the cotton belt. Under the pressure to pay for the use of the land cultivated and his year's supplies with the cotton produced on the tenanted acres, the tenant farmer exhausts his energy and the resources of the soil in his desperate effort to produce a yield sufficient to make ends meet with the landowner and the commissary, which in most instances are one and the same. Exorbitant prices for supplies, and very often common cheating serve to enslave the tenant farmer who strives more desperately to free himself by the production of more cotton. It is an unsound economic condition with the landowner and commissariat exerting pressure upon the producer to produce a supply sufficient to square his accounts, and with the producer always carrying a debit of two or three bales. This system which has become a fixture in the South is unbound and will always constitute an economic menace. While the bankers, business men and financial institutions of the South have formulated plans for relieving the immediate distress of cotton owners through the extension of liberal and long-term credit, if these efforts are to have a full fruition, it is essential that they give some attention to ridding this section of the unsound principles of its tenant farming system.

As for creative b The United States is yet too young to have developed a National literature, it produced many writers of distance to enjoy a European reputation, and it w it is busier than ever producing w it have a lasting value. This is peculiar of scientific works, history and apathy. As for creative literature it is the greatest source of development. The United States is yet too young to have developed a National literature. It has produced many writers of distinction, who enjoy a European reputation, and just now it is busier than ever producing works that have a lasting value. This is peculiarly true of scientific works, history and biography. As for creative literature it is still in the immature stages of development, with the national stamp on no distinctive body. Fenimore Cooper, Washington Irving, Nathaniel Hawthorne. Edgar Allen Poe, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry W. Longfellow, have made their contribution to a national literature, and they make a distinct group, unlike any of their predecessors or successors. Before the civil war the people were too poor and too busy perfecting their system of government, with much oratory and political writings, to devote much time to the production of creative literature. The political writings of Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, John Jay and Thomas Paine, make as high and valuable body of works on the political subject as to be found in any literature. As a matter of fact, creative literature waits upon the accumulation of wealth, which gives the necessary leisure for original research and speculative imagination. Mrs. Stowe's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is about the only creative work that has survived the flood of anti-slavery writings. Since the war Southern writers of fiction, up to 1900, were the vogue, but they wrote to excuse slavery and to glorify the slave master and the social side of slavery, and so defeated their purpose. "A Fool's Errand," by Judge Albion W. Tourge, a carpet bagger, being the best that came out of the avalanche, simply because he had a basis of fact for his fiction and was a victim of the situation and conditions of Reconstruction which others endeavored to glorify with the glamor of sacriety. George S. Schuyler, Langston Hughes, J. A. Rogers, and other writers of our group have been busy trying to show the possibility and the impossibility of creating a distinctive race literature, and the discussion has been productive of much good, as being both informing and stimulating, but it has proved nothing, except that we have produced much writing and little creative values, as literature, Paul Lawrence Dunbar remaining at the top of those who have written. And it is worthy of note and suggestive, that Countie Cullen, is of pure Negroid blood as Dunbar was. They each express more sympathetically Negroid thought and hope on this account than others, and yet it is just as impossible to separate their work from the body of American literature as it would be to separate Robert Burns the Scotchman and Alexander Dumas the Frenchman's works from the body of English or French literature. The thought and expression stamp the nationality of the work, and the most nationalities are now without racial induration, being mostly the outgrowth of the amalgamation of many race types, as in the case of the old British and the new American people. A black American thinks and talks and writes in the same language and the same way as a white American. The Afro-American will contribute more generously to the body of American literature as he grows in wealth with the leisure and culture wealth makes possible. He is doing very well but he will do better. Norfolk Journal and Guide The Colored Teacher What strides forward the colored school teacher has been making! As standards have become more exacting generally, the colored teacher has, like the white teacher, taken immediate steps to measure up. It is fast becoming no longer exceptional to come upon a well qualified teacher. Every "A" grade teacher training agency in the country has crowded classes of future instructors of youth. Not content with what they get in the course, these teachers A. E. spend many extra weeks in intensive summer school work. There seems to have come over the whole profession a greater pride in their work and their standing in the community. I am impressed that one of the means of their inspiration and progress has been the local, state and national associations of teachers. In these organizations the individual teacher has had a chance to see himself as over against his better prepared colleagues. Also, the association's programs have always provided additional information as to the increasing demands of the teaching task. To the teacher who has become discouraged and has come to feel that teaching was doomed to mediocre financial reward the association has brought the gladdening information as to better pay, keeper appreciation and bigger opportunities often in the same community, if the teacher but prepare himself for bigger things. Another big advantage arising from cooperation as among teachers is the amassing of facts as to educational progress and the newer attitudes toward teachers. The individual teacher may complain and mow for years and get no redress from local school authorities. But if that same teacher has concrete information as to what changes are taking place elsewhere, such information will work changes which would never result from tears. The National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools headed by W. A. Robinson of the State Department of Education at Raleigh, N. C., has designated next Wednesday, November 10, as Teacher Association Day. The aim is by no means selfish. It is not urged merely that teachers join the national association that day or take out subscriptions for the national publication. It is urged that the day be observed by teachers everywhere stimulating interest in every organization of teachers, whether city, county, state or national. There is no good reason why any teacher could fail to cooperate in such a plan. spend many extra weeks in intensive summer school work.

Spirit of The Press Negroes At College From the (Newport News) Times-Based In the last five years the enrollment of Negro students in schools of the Tuskegee type has more than quadrupled, according to a statement recently published by Wilhelm H. Baldwin, trustee of Fisk University. In the last five years the enrollment of Negro students in schools of the Tuskegee type has more than quadrupled, according to a statement recently published by William H. Baldwin, trustee of Fisk University. "Many of the young men and women," says he, "are prospective teachers who realize that a college degree is becoming essential to advancement in that profession, but others are preparing themselves for highly specialized service to the growing colonies of their race in the industrial centers both North and South. This rapid urbanization of the Negro reflects his functional migration from farming into industry and is creating new opportunities for the ambitious youth in the fields of medicine, law, the ministry and social service. The basis of these professions is, of course, a thorough collegiate preparation." There is still a strong "prejudice" on the part of some white people against higher education for the Negro. But it might as well break down. The Negro masses are being taught in the public schools, and many of them get a taste for college education, the same as white boys and girls, and they are going to gratify that taste, if possible. And who can blame them? It is a condition which the white race must recognize. There is no sense in shutting one's eyes to it, however "prejudiced" one may be.

Provide For Your Household From the Houston Informer The Holy Writ declares that he who provides not for his own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an infidel; and if this is true (and we neither doubt nor challenge this scriptural doctrine), our race is certainly topphey with infidels, many of whom occupy "amen" corners in our churches and preach and prate the loudest about their religion. It is utter folly and nonsense to educate our children and then expect them to return to menial and servile positions; for when you educate any man or woman, boy or girl, you unit him or her for a slave, or to even serve in the role of a serf. Yes, let's educate our children—let's give them the best education obtainable. The Holy Writ declares that he who provides not for his own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an infidel; and if this is true (and we neither doubt nor challenge this scriptural doctrine), our race is certainly toppheave with infidels, many of whom occupy "amen" corners in our churches and preach and prate the loudest about their religion. It is utter folly and nonsense to educate our children and then expect them to return to menial and servile positions; for when you educate any man or woman, boy or girl, you unfit him or her for a slave, or to even serve in the role of a serf. Yes, let's educate our children—let's give them the best education obtainable, but let's also provide some avenue of decent and lucrative employment for them, and stop getting sore with members of other races because they do not "fire" or relegate their children and give ours some nice positions in the firms and enterprises owned and operated by other races. If we are not going to do this, then it were better that we cease educating our children, and stop the waste of money and time consumed in securing an education to return to jobs that require no educational training and preparation to fill. Even the birds of the air, both wild and domestic animals make some provisions for their young, and they do not sit around and expect other birds or animals to do this for them, nor whine and complain about their "poor, unfortunate lot." A Poem AWeek WHEN I MUST DIE AT LAST When I must die, at last, At setting sun, As shadows darker grow, My work well done, Rejoicing I shall say: "Welcome expiring Day!" When I must die, at last, I will not fear, When at God's judgment bar I shall appear, Since life has been well spent In human letterment. When I must die, at last, The all alone, My dying pillow be Only n' stone, Given the world my best, I'll welcome peace, and rest! When I must die, at last, And my frail harpe Shall anchor weigh, and sail O'er waters dark, With faith my guilding star, Fearless I'll cross the harf! R. A. ADAMS Stray Thoughtlets BY J. M. HARRISON We do not sing the old songs, We sang so long ago; We do not sing the old songs, The reason we all know. It's not what mere man once possessed, but now it's what he has. The old songs now are out of date so we have to sing jazz. Once upon a time we played "Button, button, who's got the button?" But now—"Cotton, cotton, who's got the cotton?" From the number of suicides in the police station, we rise to propose a society for the protection of criminals. Harry Wills would not speak before his fight with Sharkey, and after it he could not speak at all. Cotton has no demand, but from all reports, corn is holding its own. From the number of air rides we are taking, it will not be surprising to hear us spoken of as a fly people. The average pedestrian has no rights which an autoist is bound to respect. The back force and porch gossipers seem to be on the increase. Perhaps the drop in cotton prices can be attributed to the fact that the ku kluckers are wearing silk. No Pauline, Old dear, while the editor conducts an organ, we are reliably informed he is not a musician. Butchers Of South Carolina Women From The State (Columbia, S. C.) "South Carolina chivalry." How it has spotted from rostrum and in legislative halls! With so much chivalric sentiment permeating our noble selves, it might be assured that all womankind would come within its protective sway. But it is not so; there must be exceptions to prove the rule of chivalry. So we see that in Aiken, a young Negro woman under sentence of life imprisonment for participating in the sudden and unpremeditated killing of an officer of the law, is, a year after the event, dragged, screaming from jail, taken into the woods and shot to death. Perhaps no apologists are needed for the deeds of these chivalric gentlemen, but some have appeared. They argue that the law being weak, the whites had to show their disapproval of its weakness, by ignoring all the sundry who might be responsible for such weakness, and butchering the weakest and most helpless human beings on whom they could lay hands. A jury of their county found a verdict carrying manslaughter as punishment, but these self-constituted jury, judge and executioner thought that death only was the due of a woman participating in the killing, in heat and passion, of a man. They did their killing with cold-blooded deliberation. But our chivalric South Carolinians are not consistent. They should get together and standardize their chivalry. There, for instance, is the case of a white man convicted, on the third trial, of manslaughter for the murder of his wife as she lay in bed with a baby at the breast. No "sudden hunt and passion" was advanced in extenuation; no defense was made. The motive for assassination appeared in the introduction of "another woman" as the possessor of the husband's affections! "Our noble womanhood must be protected!" So, ten thousand times have the soap box orators proclaimed. Saturday, November 6, 1926 A REGRETTABLE CONTROVERSY By KELLY MILLER. It is a good and pleas a n t thing to see our leading organs and pleas a saint leading organs of public opinion operating on a high plane beyond petty squabbling and personal controversy. We were all regretfully amazed several weeks a go to find that the Pittsburg Courier, thru its leading columnist, had is- PETER H. HARRIS sued a broadside against the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. This broadside did not indulge so much in accusations or harsh criticism, as in insinuating queries. It purported to give facts and figures as to income and expenditures, with the evident purpose of directing public attention to the Advancement organization, in a frame of mind, not wholly friendly. The Executive Secretary, Mr. James Weldon Johnson, was called to book, not only for his stewardship in N. A. A. C. P. matters, but for his relations to the Garland fund as well. Mr. Johnson enjoys the singular honor of having been chosen as chairman of the board of trustees, of which he is the only colored member. This Garland fund was given by the donor to promote unpopular causes, which find it hard to secure popular support. Naturally enough the colored causes would come in for proportionate consideration. Mr. Johnson was placed on the board with this end in view. The white trustees doubtlessly relied unfully upon his judgment as to the selection of deserving organizations and movements among colored people who might be proper recipients of the Garland foundation. The Courier questions Johnson's sense of proportion and impartiality. It complains that he engineered the larger allotments to the movements with which he was most intimately related to, to the neglect of others equally worthy. If it he conceded that Mr. Johnson acted as alleged, he was but exercising his own judgment and discretion, as a trustee. One naturally feels that the movements with which he is closely identified are the best of all and are most worthy of consideration. If Mr. Johnson preferred his circle of intimate interests above all the rest, he was but acting manly, in about the same way that the Pittsburgh Courier would have acted if placed in asimilar situation. It is not a very unkind criticism, to say of a man that he favors his friends. Most men will do that even in the capacity of a trustee of public interests. The Courier does not, could not, impugn Mr. Johnson's personal integrity. Neither does the Courier reflect upon the integrity of the management of the N. A. A. C. P., nor can it do so. But Mr. Johnson, and the organization of which he is the executive head naturally smart under the sinister implications of the Courier's insinuations. --- The N. A. A. C. P. forthwith issued a release vindicating Mr. Johnson and the integrity of the organizations. This vindication was hotly supplemented by Mr. Johnson in several addresses in the city of Pittsburgh. It was like bearding the lion in his den. Unfortunately for the Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., he lost his temper and thus put himself at a serious disadvantage as a controversialist. He indulged frequently in ugly names and uncompromising epithets. Such intemperate indulgence is always fall of convincing effect upon a fair minded public. Mr. Johnson weakened his case and his cause by his ill humor. A skillful controversialist proves his adversary to be a liar, but never calls him one. Any one can indulge in epithets. This is the ever handy weapon of the silly pated and shallow minded. Such terms as "fliar," "traitor," "soundrel," and rest of the But these, like the advertisers of South Carolina chivalry, are miserable hypocrites. When in South Carolina a Negro woman can be, in cold blood, butchered by a party of white men; and when in South Carolina a wife can be slain in her bed, with a baby in her arms, by a husband who is infatuated with another woman and that husband escapes with a sentence he might have got for pernicious hog stealing, it is time to stop talking of "chivalry." We have fallen disgracefully low; and if there be room at the bottom, we will fall lower, unless civilized people assert themselves and create a militant public, opinion in behalf of decency. Armistice Day; The Negro's Challenge Armistice Day; The Negro's Challenge Dr. Kelly Miller looks upon the controversy between the Pittsburgh Courier and Dr. James Weldon Johnson with regretful amazement, but he sees no dire consequences to come out of it to either party. In fact, Dr. Miller takes it in the controversy, but it is both sides he then takes, and then he takes an easier side because his final opinion is that they are both in error. Speaking of James Weldon Johnson, Kelly Miller, expresses high opinion of the Advancement Association's Secretary's integrity, and speaking of Robert L. Vann, editor of the Courler, Dr. Miller expresses equal confidence in his integrity. If Dr. Johnson was instrumental in his position as chairman of the trustee board of the Garland Fund in securing disproportionate appropriations for the N. A. A. C. P., that is not an unkind criticism of him, thinks Dr. Miller, who believes Mr. Johnson acted upon his best judgement as a trustee of the Fund. Neither should Mr. Johnson grow angry and utter low epithets of public criticism, adds Dr. Miller, who recalls that some of the greatest men of their day and the most unselfish public servants were victims of bitter public criticism. vocabulary of blackguardism, are looked for whenever two Negroes get themselves in controversy. The freedom with which they fall from the lips of the irate partisan has no earthly relation to the merits of the case or the integrity of the contenders. We did not expect Mr. Johnson to yield so readily to such low brow indulgences. Can heavenly minds sink to such unworthy things? However irritating it may be, those who stand in the place of public responsibility, may expect to meet with criticism, abuse and even denunciation, even when they feel that they are accomplishing their most important and unselfish service. Nothing is sacrosanct. No individual is free from abuse and assault. Grover Cleveland. Theodore Roosevelt, Booker T. Washington and Woodrow Wilson, lived, lahored, and died for their fellowmen, and yet few human beings were subject to greater volume of abuse and condemnation than they. When a man loses his temper he jeopardizes his cause. No one believes I am telling the truth merely because I call another man a liar. No one who knows Mr. Vann would believe that he would tell a deliberate lie to discredit a worthy movement, any more that he would believe a like charge against James Weldon Johnson. I know both of these men, and regard them as men of equal integrity. One or both of them has been led into misstatement of facts and misjudgment of motives. Both of them ought to be ashamed of themselves to make such an unseemly scene before the public. ```markdown ``` Mr. Vann has shown his superiority, in that he has kept his temper. The gravamen of difference between them hinges upon a single issue of fact. Did Mr. Johnson use his good offices BY DANIEL W. CHASE For the Associated Negro Press So this is Armistice Day! We stand today at another milestone. Our feet are tired, for they have been bruised by our walks along the rugged way. Sometimes our burdens have become very heavy, and we have grown, O so weary! Last night we looked up at the beautiful clear blue sky, and we thought of the wonder in the construction of the many stars. And today at dawn we were wondering what would happen ever the twilight closed upon us. Our thoughts turn backward, and we see a war-ridden world. As children of a hopeful race we ask have we shed tears in vain? Have our tears for our fallen heroes of color been vain tears, or do we share a kindly grief, knowing that the cause for which they died is the cause that rights all wrong? Have we borne the brunt of the battle as a foretaste of the gigantic struggle just ahead. An armistice—a treaty—with whom—and for what? And today, for a brief period, millions of Negroes stand with bowed heads, unwilling to abolish difficulties and dangers by denying their existence, and repeat "The race problem is the gravest of the world's problems." No, we do not believe in racial fusion or anmalgamation; we believe that the Negro race must cherish its racial integrity, thru which each one of us may develop the proper virtues and make a definite contribution to the general fund of human life and progress. Armistice Day 1926, finds us wanting no aggravation of or addition to the race difficulties as trustee of the Garland Fund to award Dr. DuBrouf five thousand and dollars to investigate Negro education in South Carolina or in the South? Mr. Vann said that the grant was limited to South Carolina. Mr. Johnson replies that this is a lie, the grant covered the whole South. It would seem that Mr. Johnson ought to know since he is president of the fund out of which the grant is made, and in all probability had most to do with influencing its allotment. But Mr. Vann comes back, with a journal lists shrewdness, and gives the public a photographic copy of the reports of the Garland Fund, where it is specifically stated that on March 21, a grant of five thousand dollars was awarded Dr. W. E. B. DuBrouf to study Negro education in South Carolina. Now who is the fliar? asks Mr. Vann triumphantly. I can answer with positive belief in both men's integrity, neither. I do seem as if Vann has the dead wood on Johnson. But what is a photographic copy against a man's integrity of character built up during a life time of uprightness—of thought and conduct? The photographic copy is doubtless, so far as copies it leaves. Mr. Vann in a very embarrassing position. Appearances are all against him. But is it not more than likely that the board may have intended one thing and the secretary recorded another. The misunderstanding of a word or part of the scribe might easily account for the difference. I have known of more than one instance where a deliberate body has taken one action and secretary has recorded something quite different in meaning and purpose. I know absolutely nothing of the inside facts, but I now venture to the prediction (October the 29, 1926) that Mr. Johnson will disentangle himself in an early release to this effect. But this ought to teach the N. A. A. C. P. secretary a valuable lesson. He should here after exercise great hesitancy and caution before branding a man of hitherto upright reputation, as a liar. --- But what of it all? The N.A. A. C. P. will still continue to do its work keeping the spirit of agitation alive. The public will still continue its support because it believes in its integrity. The Courier will still continue as the second or third leading Negro weekly. Mr. Johnson's partizans will borrow his amity against Mr. Vann, and will denounce him as an unworthy and undesirable citizen. Mr. Vann's friends will return the compliment in full and overflowing measure. The N.A. A. C. P. may lose a few supporters; the Courier may lose a few sub-scribers. But both institutions will pursue the even tenor of their way. The right minded public will let the incident pass into regretful memory that these two outstanding examples of the Negro intelligentsia should have set such a sorry example to the proclariat whom they engage to lead. that we face at this moment We will not have it. Yes, we have hopes of a peace in which all mankind must share for all remaining time. At this time, we make the capita l of these United States our trysting place, and instead of an armistice we make a Challenge: "In the name of high heaven we wage warfare—carnal and infernal as it may be—on all who regard us less than men, taking from us that which is rightfully ours—the divine right to live at peace with all mankind." Shall we rely upon such? Yes, for we are facing the next great dream of man's destiny. In that drama the Negro will perhaps be compelled to play the stellar role. Will he know his lines? Can he play the part? Armistice Day 1926 bids usse to it that we are strong to deal with all the mighty forces around us. Harvest Time BY. R. A. ADAMS Among the many things that merit our consideration, at harvest-time are: the wisdom of God, the goodness of God, our obligations to Him, and the question of life's harvest-time, when the end is drawing near. The arrangement of seed-time and harvest-time, the placing of chemicals in the soil, the sending of sunshine and rain to make the earth productive all fully and forcibly attest the wisdom of God by whom these are ordered and controlled; and this wisdom, since all was arranged
