Norfolk Journal and Guide FOLLOW THE GUIDE It Leads To PROGRESS VOL. XXVI No. 47 LYNCHING TOTAL 31 FORYEAR Record Nearly Double Mark Reached In 1925 TEXAS RAISES SCORE (B) N. A. A. C. P.) New York,—Asserting that the lynching of 3 Nerges, one of them a woman, near Houston, Texas, brought the total to date for 1926 up to 31 lynchings as against 18 for the entire year 1925, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth avenue, today telegraphed President Coolidge urging a statement from him to the country on this subject and asking that he urge Congress to take the appropriate action within its power to end the lynching evil. Second Woman Killed The lynching in Texas is the second in which a woman has been among the victims, the first such lynching for the year having occurred in Aiken, South Carolina, where a mob on the morning of October 8, lynched Bertha Lowan, her brother and her cousin, the brother having been ordered acquitted by the Judge presiding at their trial. The status of the lynching states that reported by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People for the current year is as follows: Florida 8; Texas 5; Mississippi 4; South Carolina 5; Arkansas 4; Tennessee 6; Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, New Jersey and Virginia. The text of the telegram to President Coolidge is as follows: "Within a month and 4 days of the lynching of a colored woman and two men in Aiken, South Carolina, three Negroes, one of whom reported being a man in Texas. Press reports state that the Negroes were naughtyly assassinated in revenge for the killing of a white man with whose death none of the murdered Negroes was in any way connected. This latest outrage increases the number of recorded American抄ches for the year to date to thirty-one, as against eighteen for the entire twelve months of 1925. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People again respectfully urges that you take some statement to the country on this shameful situation and upon the Congress to take the appropriate action which lies with its power.

N.O.S.President MAJOR ALLEN WASHINGTON. BETTER HOMES AND HEALTH STRESSED Negro Organization Society Closes Annual Meet BY CLIFTON L. WILLIAMS Staff Correspondent The fourteenth annual meeting of the Negro Organization Society of Virginia came to a close Friday night after a three-day session in the modest house and inviting First Baptist Church of Cap Charles, of which the Rev. P. W. Cooke, B. D., is the pastor. And when the meeting closed again new impetus had been given to one of the most constructive forces in the State for bettering the schools, the hom., the health and the farms of the Negroes in Virginia. The sessions were largely attended and marked by pronounced enthusiasm, being in this respect and in respect to financial collections the best in the history of the organization. But to say that an annual meeting of this society was largely attended and that its sessions were enthusiastic must not be taken to mean that vast crowds assembled nor that its coming together was attended by the blare of brass bands or the whoop of the multitude. Far from it, the Negro Organization Society is constituted of a group of men and women whose purpose for banding themselves together in that body necessarily limits their numbers to only those who earnestly seek to serve unselfishly their fellows and those who sincerely seek more light upon community life than that community life might be enchanted. Compromutatively, the Negro Organization Society is composed of a small number. An average attendance of two hundred upon its sessions means a largely attended meeting, and the enthusiasm of its sessions is evinced in the zeal and sincerity with which it endeavors to deal in a practical way with the economic and health problems of the people. This Society is composed of a group of the most unselfish men and women of the State who are dedicating their talents to the service of their fellows. Its work is extremely unostentious but powerfully constructive and naturally its annual meetings take on the same air. "Better Homes, Better Schools, Better Health, Better Farms," is the slogan of the Negro Organization Society and virtually every minute of the inspiring annual meeting just closed was devoted to emphasis upon that slogan. On the program were practical educators of note who brought messages and demonstrations sufficiently charged with definite information to make life more abundant for those who were to hear and witness them. Some idea of the chness of the information seminaried for bettering the home school, health school will be gained by a reference to the list of speakers who appeared on the show. This list included Mr. W. D. Gresham, state supervisor of Negro education; Allen Washington, commandant of cadets, Hampton Institute, who is president of the society; Hon. A. F. Dize, mayor of Cape Charles; Mrs. Annie Holland, of the North Carolina Department of Negro Education; D. W. Byrd, of Norfolk; Dr. M. E. Norris, Lynchburg; Dr. F. Ri trigg, Lynchburg; Re. A. L. James, D. D., president of Virginia Baptist State Convention; Mr. Jackson Davy field agent, General Education Board; Prof. Miles Comor, Baltimore; Mr. J. B. Pierce, United States Extension Service; Dr. P. O'Connell, Morgan College, Baltimore; Mr. T. B. Patterson, district farm demonstration agent; John L.

C.—Mrs. Nannie Washington of Belton is held in the county jail to await action by grand jury upon the charge that she poisoned her husband, Eugene Washington, who died recently under circumstances that aroused suspicion of the authorities. Chemical analysis of Washington's stomach contents showed the presence of nine grains of arsenic. The arrest of Mrs. Washington followed. The police are seeking a motive for the killing. Eugene Washington and his wife were living upon good terms according to neighbors. Following her arrest, Mrs. Washington denied emphatically any knowledge of how her husband came to his death. He was insured for $500. An attempt is being made to obtain bail for Mrs. Washington. The couple were popular in Belton. BUSINESS MEN OF BOTH RACES IN WALL ST. PARLEY Eminent Bankers Show Sympathetic Attitude Toward Claims of Colored Group (By Associated Negro Press) New York, Nov. 15—A most significant and important interracial conference was held here yesterday when, at the call of Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of The Greene Institute, and president of the National Negro League, office of the National Negro Filii Corporation met with some of the leading financiers and investment experts of New York City. The conference was held in the Standard Oil Building, GI Broadway, and was the first of its kind in bringing together common problems of the Negro race. Dr. Moton, who presided, sounded the keynote of the meeting by telling of the Negroes' progress in business and describing the uplift struggle which Negro business experiences because the city has begun to Wall street and other centers of capital and discussed close to our group, brought into review questions of credit, investments, and business experience as it relates to the Negro. One of the white friends who spoke said that one of the chief difficulties was the lack of contact between the business men of the two races and felt that the conference had accomplished a great service in permitting him and the other white friends to learn at first hand something of the difficulties, problems, and needs of the business men. All of the white friends expressed surprise at the information they received and admitted that they knew and more sympathetic viewpoint of the situation. Dr. Moton announced that it is his plan to arrange a second conference of this kind early in 1927 when he returns from abroad. Those of the white group present at the conference were: Mr. Clarence H. Kelsey, vice president of the Title Guarantee and Trust Company; Mr. Chellis A. Austin, president, Seaboard National Bank; Mr. William Jay Schieffelin, chairman, board, Schieffelin and Company; Mr. Schieffelin and Rockefeller interests; Mr. Ray Fodder, Dr. Wylie Rose, Dr. Boardsley Ruml, Dr. Trevor Arnett. The colored group included aside from Dr. Moton, Mr. C. C. Spaulding, president, North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, Durham; Dr. John E. Hall New York realtor; Dr. R. L. McDougall, vice president Farmers and Mechanics Bank, Durham Prof. W. G. Pearson, Dr. R. John H. Rawker, president, Denton B. Haskin, D. C. W.

Fisk University In Dire Straits; May Be Forced To Close Its Doors President And Chaplain In City Appealing To Friends To Aid Institution Fisk University, for sixty-one years the foremost educational center for Negroes in the South, is facing one of the greatest financial crisis in its history, according to an announcement made here by Dr. Thomas Elsa Jones, new president of the university, and Chaplain Paul E. Baker, financial representative of the institution, who were in the city this week with a glowing account of campus life and spirit at Fisk, but sounding the S. O. S. call in a desperate effort to save the institution. COMMUNITY FUND CLOSES WITH $6,443.83 Campaign Ends With Contributions 50 per Cent Below Last Year The Colored Division of the Norfolk Community Chest Fund brought its campaign to a close Sunday night, after an extension of five days time beyond the scheduled closing date, with cash and pledges aggregating $6443.83, some $3000 behind last year's and about an equal amount short of the hoped for goal. The difference between the amount raised last year and the amount raised in the campaign just closed looms much larger, when it is recalled that the total credited to the Colored Division this year has included the pledges and cash coming from colored industrial workers in the various plants, whereas last year these donations were not so credited. Of the $6443.83 reported, $2,000 of this amount came from the industries, leaving individual donations aggregating $1443.83 against last year's total of $9,873, or a deficit of more than $5,000 or 50 per cent. Of the $444,838 total $1316.83 was received in cash, while of the $9,837, raised last year $2,127.22 was cash. In the campaign just closed 1,031 persons subscribed against 2,103 subscribers in last year's drive, which indicates 1,101 persons less donated to the Chest Fund this year than did last year. It is believed, however, that much of the apparent failure of the recent campaign can be ascribed to lack of organization reflected in the woeful inadequacy of workers. There are several factors that entered into the situation, however, that were entirely beyond the control of the campaign organization, and a large portion of the public is acquainted with just what these factors were. Added to the reports from the public seek are which were published last week are Dumbar School, $57-64; John J. Smallwood School, $48.03; and Dauglass Park School, $41.65. City In Dire May Be Forced Close Its Doors City Appealing To Friends To Institution y-one years the foremost edu- tion the South, is facing one of the its history, according to an an- Thomas Elsa Jones, new presi- splain Paul E. Baker, financial ion, who were in the city this t of campus life and spirit at S. call in a desperate effort to Needs $325,000 According to these gentlemen who are appealing to the friends alumni of Fisk and the friends of egro education, the university has outstanding notes amounting to $125,000 which must be paid before it can qualify for the Million Dollar Endowment which has been subscribed for by the university. It will take $100,000 above the regular income to pay the running expenses this year. An additional $100,000 is necessary to repair the buildings, now in a dilapidated condition, and put the grounds in condition. At least one-half of this $252,000 must be raised by June 1, 1927, if the university is to keep its doors open. Before large givers will respond to the S. O. S. call, the alumni and friends of the institution will have to in a timely manner their interest in the life of Fisk. It is imperative that at least $100,000 be found in the colored group if the university is to get the necesary funds to carry forward the great work it has done in the past. Race Must Give Commenting on the situation, Fisk representatives said: "The thought among alumni and friends seems to have been. 'Well we do not have much money. If we do not come to the rescue of Fisk, the larger donors around New York will.' But the fact is out at last. Our Eastern friends will let our institution die unless we show in a very concrete way that we want it to live. Some of Fisk's friends must this year deny themselves some things they desire very much and give the money to the university if the doors are to keep open until June. Unless at least $50,000 are forthcoming by March 1, the college will have to be closed and students sent to another institution. The university authorities let it be plainly understood that they have no secrets to keep. They declare that it is their duty to give the real facts of the situation, and they state that it is their belief that Fisk does have friends and that they will come to the aid of the institution in this its hour of dire need. With this faith they are going forward with their program of greater usefulness for Fisk with the hope that the institution will be pulled out of a hole. DO YOU KNOW HIM?

FOURTEEN PAGES, IN TWO PARTS MEMORY OF YOUNG HONORED Patriotic Ceremonies Held At Arlington Cemetery LAUD RACE SOLDIER (Special Correspondence). Washington D. C., Nov. 15—Armistice Day was celebrated at Arlington Cemetery by James E. Walker Post, American Legion, and by hundreds of colored citizens of the District of Columbia, and other parts of the country, who assembled to dedicate the monument which has been erected over the grave of Colonel Charles Young. U. S. Army. Addresses upon the occasion were made by Major O. J. W. Scott, U. S. Army, retired, former chairman of the North Country of which Colonel Young was a commanding officer; by Colonel John T. Axton, chief of the Chaplain's Corps of the U. S. Army; and by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, former Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, now Secretary-Treasurer of Howard University. All of the addresses paid tribute to the life and character of Colonel Young in his language of attention to the fact that Colonel Young held the Right rank ever attained by a member of the colored race in the regular army of the United States. Dr. Emnett J. Scott, said in part: "It is in that spirit of devotion to high, unselfish ideals, and to a great idealist, that we come today. Charles Young was the Beau Ideal, the Beau Sabreur, of a race. He was the incarnation of high purpose. Ever he followed the imposition of virtue and freedom and justice. In magnanimity of character, in high courage which carried him through trying and bitter experiences, he remained always, and to the end, unambittered, believing and trusting in the good faith of his country and in his fellowmen. "His military skill, his extreme, self-effacing modesty, his fidelity to trust—or these, I might well speak, but this is not the hour, that is not the hour." "But we do honor his name, we do honor his memory. Today, we come reverently to erect this monument over his grave. But, after all, it is but a poor symbol of our love and honor. He will live thus the increasing years in our hearts, and in the hearts of our children, and our children's children, as the grillant soldier trained at West Point, who withstood every untoward incident of his long military career without complaint and without fear. Whether facing privations on the Mexican border in the Philippines, upon the great open spaces of the West and the Southeast, or in the jungles of Africa, he was Charles Young, the soldier, always spiritually triumphant, always adventurous, eager, unafraid.

Mrs. Mooney says one of the men called to her in her cell, telling her to keep her mouth shut and say "she was asleep" if questioned. GIVE MEDALS TO BRAVE SHERIFFS Rewarded For Efforts In Preventing Lynchings (Special to Journal and Guide) Houston, Texas—Handsome bronze medals were today conferred by the Texas Interracial Committee, in annual session here to Sheriffs James Hilton, of Orange, Texas, Schuyler Marshall, of Dallas, and John C. Sanders, of Marshall, and to Constable A. B. Carter of Azle, in recognition of notable diligence in the protection of prisoners from threatened moh violence. The medals, which are beautiful examples of the engraver's art, picture a heroic figure standing with drawn sword before the temple of justice, the whole encircled by the legend, "in defense of law and civilization." Sheriff J. C. Sanders, of Marshall, had 'the unique distinction in August, 1925 of dispersing by an appeal all but thirteen members of a threatening mob of two hundred, and then of arresting the unlucky thirteen and locking them up in jail. ST. LUKE ORDER STANDS HIGH IN PENNYSLVANIA ST. LUKE ORDER STANDS HIGH IN PENNYSLVANIA Declared 101.04 Solvent By State Department of Insurance Richmond, Va—Attorney J. Thos. Hewin, Actuary F. M. Speakman, of Philadelphia, Pa. and the R. W. G. Secretary-Treasury, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, representing the above named order, were present Tuesday, November 9, at Harrisburg, Pa., in answer to the call of the Commissioner of Insurance, "to show cause why the license of the order should not be revoked." Every requirement of the Bureau of Insurance of Pennsylvania had been met by the Independent Order of St. Luke. The fraternal business of 26 societies operating in the State of Pennsylvania for the past seven years had been compiled by the 52 years of Insurance, the compilation formed the basis of the call. Following the conference in Harrisburg, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, R. W. G. Secretary-Treasurer issued the following statement: "Every year for these seven years the St. Luke Order had filed a Valuation Report which averaged from 101 to 105%. Every year for the seven years, there was a net increase for the Order, both in finance and in members. One criticism was given by the Commissioner, which was thoroughly explained and cleared most satisfactorily; that was 'that the Order's overhead expense was excessive and should be reduced.'

ALL NEWS THAT'S MORTH READING PRICE 7 CENTS SUE AIKEN FORWORK OF MOB Actions For Damages To Be Started For Three STATE LAW SUITS (Special to the Journal and Guide) Aiken, S. C.—Actions for damages will be brought against Aiken county for the lynching of Clarence, Demon and Bertha Lowman which occurred here on October th. petitions have been filed with George R. Webb, judge of probate for Aiken county for the appointment of an administrator for the three colored victims of the mob. Judge M. L. Bonham, sitting in Lexington, last week directed a verdict for $2,000 in favor of the administrator of Will Allen lynched some time ago near the Lexington-Newberry line. In the Lowman case a verdict of not less than $2000, the constitutional minimum in each case brought, is considered almost inescapable. By the testimony of the officers of Aiken county the fact of the identity of the three lynchmen the hands of lynchers in Aiken county may be established The verdict will of necessity follow under the law, either by the jury or—as is not unusual—by direction of the court. The language of the constitution is plain: "In all cases of lynching when death ensues, the county where lynching takes place shall regard to the county of the offender like in exemplary damages of not less than $2000 to the legal representatives of the persons lynched. "Any county against which a judgment has been obtained for damages in any case of lynching shall be held liable for the number of said judgment from the parties engaged in said lynching in any court of competent jurisdiction." LOCAL BUSINESS LEAGUE FORMED Prospects for cooperating among the business and professional men and women of the race in Norfolk in the future to the end that numerous advantages which might come to our group through organization and concerted effort may be had, loom brighter at the present time than they have for a number of years. A group of business and professional men met in the board room of the Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company Wednesday night and after listening to a very informing lecture by Bert M. Roddy, vice president at-large of the National League, a organization formed a temporary local Business League with P. B. Young, chairman; E. M. Mitchell, secretary and W. M. Rich, treasurer. Mr. Roddy outlines the program of the National League toward its affiliated groups with some detail told to the pressing need of local business organization. He is traveling through the states of Virginia, West Virginia and North Carolina carrying this message of cooperation and organization of Negro business and has met with encouraging results in Suffolk, Richmond, Petersburg, Newport News, Portsmouth and other cities. Teams of two person each were made up of those present at the Wednesday night meeting whose purpose it is to begin at once a membership campaign throughout the city. It is hoped through this meeting to increase the number at the next meeting which is set for Tuesday night, November 23, at the same place, to effect a permanent organization. Membership in the league is open to men and women engaged in business or professional pursuits on their own account or employed in these capacities. This means that to be a member one does not necessarily have to be a business professional, business partners, stockholders, and business and professional employees and owners of whatever nature may be and are urged to become members. Canvassers will scour the city during the days between now and Tuesday, night soliciting memberships in this organization, and in order that it might become an official body of the public to community the public is asked to and help put over its programs.

HOME & KITCHEN SUGGESTIONS Edited by MARIAN JANE PARKER, Home Economics Dept., Calumet Baking Powder Co. Footwear Hints - New shoes which do not polish well should be rubbed with a cut lemon. - Leather which is only slightly damp is difficult to polish. Rub a little paraffin on before applying the ordinary cream. In muddy weather put an extra layer of water along the join between the uppers and the soles. This will not only make the footwear waterproof, but will also prevent the mud caking on the leather. It is possible to overcome the "squeak" in a shoe by rubbing sweet oil into the sole. Another plan is to get a large needle and push this in and out between the upper and the sole on both sides. The shoes retain their shape while drying if they are inserted or if the shoes are stuffed with tissue paper after they are taken off. Vegetable Casserole Dinners Do you think because you haven't a casserole that casserole meals are impossible? The last few years have developed more new casserole dishes or meals than any other type of meal one service: Dorm room, Cooking Schools, Radio Talks and both magazine and newspaper articles have given us many new ways of serving and combining the everyday foods which have an interesting appearance as well as flavor. The question confronting every housewife, whether summer, fall or winter, is the preparation of food be made easier, in more instances than one. Tender meat is not necessary for casserole cooking—here this type of cooking is a money saver. Tough cuts are equally as nutritious as those higher in price and the flavor just as good when properly cooked. Cut the meat into pieces and scar on top of the stove. Have the vegetables cut into cubes or strips and parboil or saute for about five minutes; then place the meat and vegetables in the casseroles and cover with water or soup stock. Season and cook until meat is tender. Be generous with your seasonings in casserole cooking. A dash of Kitchen Bouquet, Catsup or onion will greatly enhance the flavor. Most all vegetable casserole dishes require a bit of meat to add the desired flavor. Beef, ham bone, bacon or pigs' feet can all be used. At this time of the year our old stand-bys, the "root" vegetables, with squash, onions and cabbage, are in their prime. We need not confine the cooking of these fall vegetables to plain boiled or mashed. There are many ways in which we can add variety by learning new ways of preparing them. However, there are many housewives who are really not capable of cooking these common vegetables plainly. Take squash for instance, which often has a watery taste; if properly prepared, makes a most taste dish. Team a hubbarb squash, mash smoothly, season with salt, pepper, and plenty of butter, also a bit of tablespoons of corn and a bit of sugar. Both hard and serve steaming hot. Hardly any summer vegetable can surpass its deliciousness. We have that homely turkey. Select young, small ones, and boil until tender. Dice and add a rich cream sauce. You can scarcely detect the old strong flavor of turkeys. Common vegetables plainly cooked, in order to be good, must be well cooked, well seasoned and hot. NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE Richmond, Va.—Another Virgina fraternal insurance society has met the stringent requirements of the Pennsylvania Insurance department. Supreme Master A. W. Holmer of the National Ideal Benefit Society, with home offices in his city issued the following statement upon his return here from darrisburg: "The members of the National Ideal Benefit Society and the public generally will doubtless be interested in the result of the hearing before the Commissioner of Insurance of the State of Pennsylvania, from which a citation to some 28 or more fraternal organizations located in various states of the union, sent out by the Commissioner of Insurance, November 9, and show cause why their litigation to comply with certain provisions of the Insurance laws of the State of Pennsylvania. Among the number so cited to appear was the National Ideal Benefit Society, in pursuance to such call, our Order appeared, being represented by Attorney J. C. Robertson. The conduct of our business since we have been in the State of Pennsylvania, was thoroughly considered by the Insurance Department and the Department of Justice and the final decision rendered by the Insurance Department and the Department of Justice that the National Ideal Benefit Society had not and was not violating any law of the Insurance Department, by operating in the State and the future operation in the State was not objectionable to the Department, "From the above you can see that the investigation held by the Insurance Department, with the various companies on the 9th of November, does not affect or hinder our work in the State of Pennsylvania, but leaves the society unhampered in taking in new members, building new lodges and spreading our gork generally throughout the State. "We regard the ruling of the Commissioner as a great victory for our organization."

C.—Hampton came from the rear in the last of a game that stood 6-0 in favor of A. & T., and gave her rival the worst defeat of the season. It was the hardest contested, cleanest, and the most brilliantly played game ever witnessed, between these contenders for C. I. A. A. honors. A large crowd witnessed the Bulldogs go down fighting a good game before the victorious rally of the Seasiders on Cone Field, that ended 14-6 in favor of the Seasiders, Williams, of Hampton, broke through A. & T's line twice for the winning tallies in the final quarter. The first half and the first part of the third quarter can easily be conceded to the fighting aggregation of Bulldogs. A punting duel was engaged in from the beginning of the game between Baker, of Hampton, and Coleman of A. & T. The Bulldogs in this way many times forced Hampton to kick from a dangerous position. The advantage also can be given to A. & T. on the yards gained, by the powerful and aggressive fullback Lane. This roving fullback indeed was a menace to Hampton on the offense and the defense, or whenever plays were brought thru the line. Coleman Scores for A. & T. The first two quarters were scoreless, but there were threats from both sides, particularly so when Hampton was in possession of the ball at the end of the second quarter. There was a possibility for a drop kick, but the ball was lost on downs. Early in the third quarter Coleman started an air attack that resulted in a gain of 35 yards. Lane was on the receiving end. A. & T's weighty backs plotted the line for consistent gains and the ball was finally carried over by Coleman. Hampton was not discouraged by this, so a rally was started by Capt. Lee. He grabbed a fumbled ball that was intercepted by an A. & T. player. A straight drive for about 35 yards followed and was capped with a beautiful off tackle play, Williams carrying the ball. The extra point was in favor of Hampton, leading A. & T, to put up an air attack that was seemingly easily taken care of by the Hampton backs. Baker kicked off to A. & T. and they again tried the air as a means of trying to score. Williams intercepted one of these loose passes. A mad rush was again started which seemed almost impossible to stop. The pop and speed of the A. & T. players waned before the driving of Thatcher and Williams. Byrd at times stole through the line for substantial gains. The surprise came when Williams hit off tackle, for a clean touchdown. The ball was kicked off again to A. & T. but when Hampton got possession of the ball she started to pounding the line. Byrd broke through for another touchdown, but the final whistle blew just as the play was being made. Now that the largest stumbling block has been removed from the path of the Seasiders Championship drive, she is in a fair position to defeat the Pawing Panthers of Union.

Thrilling Encounter Throughout; Epps Shines Bright Richmond, Va.—Like a swirling, swishing, unrelentless hurricane, the Virginia Union University Panther eleven swept away another obstacle between her and the coveted C. I. A. A. championship by defeating the formidable Va. State College eleven, (formerly Va. N. & I. I.) in a football classic chock full of thrills on Hovey Field last Saturday. The score was 12 to 0, in favor of Va. Union. This victory is the sixth straight for the Panthers, all opponents have been subdued this season and with the championship hanging in the balance, Hampton looms like a huge obstacle on an otherwise clear sky. MacFarland Star by Far A new star fitted its way into the football firmament on historic Hovey Field. His clents clicking over the gridiron with a staccato report, "Big Boy" MacFarland, fullback extraordinary hit, the State line time and again for consistent gains, Aided by his teammate Shields who was also gaining considerable yardage, MacFarland carried the piskin down the field to within the shadow of the goal post and then leaped over a seething mass of padded humanity to a glorious touchdown after 5 minutes, and 30 seconds of hectic playing. Epps' Thrilling Runs Possessed of an uncanny ability to elude would-be tacklers, Epps, Normal's quarterback also loomed in the limelight. He wiggled, squirmed and zigzagged his way to some gains, to the delight of the fans. Anderson proved to be the main stay of Union's line, tearing holes open consistently and paving the way for gains by the backs. Ruffin, his teammate, also did noble work at the tackle position, playing an unusually aggressive game.

The first touchdown came after six minutes of play when MacFarland plunged into the Normal line and across the goal line. The Panther snarled again in the third quarter and scored when the work of Thompson, halfback and MacFarland brought the pigskin to within striking distance, and MacFarland carried the ball across. Downing played well for the Panthers, as well as Smith and Holmes. (Monday Nov. 15) St. Paul 0; St. Augustine 5. Howard 7; Atlanta 0. Talladega 2; Alabama State 0.

FOUR HORSEMEN AT THE ATTUCKS Rudolph Valentino's Greatest Triumph Coming For Three Days Rex Ingram's well remembered screen classes, "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," one of the greatest films ever produced by the industry, has returned in triumph in response to a flood of requests from exhibitors all over the country. This picture, unsurpassed as an artistic record of its time, is the film that brought the late Rudolph Valentino to fame. Valentino plays opposite Alice Terry in this picture, and in it does some of the best work he ever contributed to the screen. An enormous cast was employed by Director Ingram with phenomenal success in translating the popular Ibanez novel to the screen. Its first showing aroused unprecedented enthusiasm in New York, Chicago, Boston, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Los Angeles and other film centers, where it was characterized by the critics as one of the great pictures of all time.

C.—St. Paul Tigers succumbed to the attack of the St. Augustine's eleven and dropped the tilt by a 5. to 0 score. St. Paul resorted to a kicking and forward passing game, in an effort to score and prevent the maddened onrush of the Carolina aggregation. This fast encounter marks the first game St. Paul has lost to her sister school in nine years. The contest was a bitterly and closely fought one, with both teams trying hard to come out on top of the heap. St. Augustine's first tally came when G. Williams, versatile kicker of the Carolinians, dropped kicked from St. Paul's 25-yard line, after some spectacular line bucking and off-tackle runs had brought the ball down to this position. Captain Cutchins, of St. Augustine scored the safety the total scoring five points. The passing combination of Burton to Johnson was one of the most outstanding features of the game. These lads made almost consistent gains, completing long and short forward passes. S. C. State Beats Orangeburg S.

The cool, cautious, but fighting Hampton Seasiders and Union's Pawning Panthers are set to enter into one of the season's most crucial tests. Thanksgiving, when these two steller elevenes meet on Armstrong Field in the twenty-first annual Hampton-Union game, to decide the championship of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association. This game is the most outstanding clash of the south, south-east or middle Atlantic section, or what ever the geographical authorities dub this neck of the woods. Even though it is not as large in scope as the Howard-Lincoln scrap, yet usually borders on the scintillating and always turns out to be a contest of merit, class, dash, pep and what have you. Both teams have traveled a hard road and have come out on top with one of the most impressive records of their relationship. Union and Hampton have worked up this game, carrying with them a record never before achieved, prior to their annual gridfest. All Tidewater looks upon this game as the most pre-eminent affair of the season and the anticipation of the entire populace is borne out most times. Teams Well Oiled Both squads have been well oiled and greased during the season, and have turned in some brilliant wins over tough foes. This points to a game that bears all earmarks of a contest of contests. No doubts to it turning out to be one of the hardest fought and most glorious games in the history of the meetings of these two teams. The game this year, is truly a championship affair, as the title of the C. I. A. A. hangs in the balance and will have to be beaded this game. Union has beaten every other team in the association, only having her goal line darkened on one occasion. Hampton's record might not be as impressive, but the Seasiders have decisively trounced every opponent met, or will have, by Saturday, when the timer's gun ends the tilt with Johnson C. Smith. The comparative records of the two teams need not be written here as they appear elsewhere in these columns, in fact, they are known by the ardent followers of the elevens o fthe C. I. A. A.

Howard Bisons, still roaming after their successful invasion of the West last Saturday when they conquered Wilberforce, came down into the Southland and trampled Atlanta University 7-0, before a colorful crowd of about 3,000 in a thrill packed contest which added laurels to the fame of Coles, Ross, Sayles Rainey, Miller, Martin, Hinton and Sallie of Howard of the Atlantans, LaMarr, Stanley, Colum, Clay and Sheppard. To Coles because he was the quarterback who acting in lieu of the injured Captain V. Smith, did all of the Bison punting, kicked the point after touchdown and led Howard back to score a touchdown in the 3rd period after the backs had been unable to get going against the fighting Crimson Hurricane in the first half. Ross, because he threw the 35-yd pass to Sayles that put the ball in scoring position and took it over and did the best line plunging of the day. To Rainey because his guarding stood out in a game where the lines of both teams played fine football, to Miller, because he began to show the form that made him All-American in '24, to Biff Martin the roving center, because he intercepted Sheppard's pass on memorable 3rd quarter on his own 35-yd line and raced 58 yards before being downed 7 yards from the Crimson goal line, to Hinton on account of his runnig back of punts and consistent ground gaining, and especially to Carroll Sallie, end, whose Spartan courage and determination kept him playing the whole of the last quarter with a fractured rib. LaMarr,ackle, also injured was the star of the A. U. line. His tackling with that of the ends, Collum and play, who were always down under McPherson's punts, featured. Sheppard, the Texas steer ran well as did Stanley. The former's passing was accurate but the Howard defense blocked every try. Orangeburg, S. C.—Allen University of Columbia found themselves sufficiently strong and on the alert for all the breaks to decat the formidable Claflin eleven in Education Day at the Orangburg County Colored Fair. A long ass and run down the field for the first touchdown and a fumble and run for a second touchdown gave Allen the edge and a final score 4 to 0.

Booker Washington further proved her mastery over St. Joseph at League Park last Friday, but the mastery was not complete as in the past two years, because the Catholic boys put up a more determined fight against the Fighting Bookers and held them to three touchdowns and one lone extra point. St. Joseph fought hard against the more seasoned players of Booker Washington, playing a game, far superior than any they have displayed to date. These lads are coming around fast, and in a short while, will have to be reckoned with the best. Though the Fighting Bookers were a little unsteady in this game feeling confident of a victory over the plucky Catholics, they were the masters throughout the fray, and it was only a matter of time before they would romp away with the big end of the scoring. From the opening whistle to the final act, it was a struggle, with St. Joseph staging a warm battle to offset the charges of the crack Washingtonians. This game proved one of the most interesting high school clashes of the season, for the Bookers have been romping to easy victory over other eleven encountered here. First Quarter Scoreless Booker Washington scored with ease in the opening quarters of other games played with St. Joseph, but this game was different. St. Joseph held the boys scoreless in the first quarter. The Bookers threatened to tally in this period, but the stonewall defense put up by St. Joseph held for downs. St. Joseph received the kick-off and was forced to punt out after failing to gain the necessary yardage. Johnson receiving the punt, was unable to advance. On the first crack, Nottingham got 7 yds. Tynes' thrust was good for 11 yards and Nottingham came back SCHEDULE BETWEEN Rocky Mount, N. C. (including Sunday) JULY 26, 1926 BOUND Passengers Between All Points Station ... 7:30 A.M. 4:00 P.M.

Johnson got 4 yards and attempted a pass that failed. On the next try, the pass to Ross was good for 22 yds. placing the ball on St. Joseph's 18-yard line. On the first buck, Tynes got 4 yards. Nottingham and Ross hit for 2 each. Ross came back for 6 yards and Tynes for 2, placing the ball on the 4-yard line. The Bookers continued to hammer at the line of the Catholics, until the ball was worked down to the 1-yard line and it was fourth down. Johnson, taking the ball, attempted to ease over from this point, but the opposing eleven braced. Taking the ball that was yielded on downs, they punted out of danger to their 24-yard line. Booker Washington took the oval again to try hard to register in this quarter, but every attempt was blocked by the plucky St. Joseph eleven. The Bookers uncorked its aerial attack in a mighty effort, but St. Joseph was there every time. Johnson made a long pass to Boyd, who muffed it behind the goal clear of all opposing tackles giving the ball to the Catholics on their 20-yard line and this quarter ended, with the Bookers unable to tally. Johnson Starts Scoring Constant hammering brought results for Booker Washington. The second frame proved more fruitful. The Bookers crossed over early in this quarter, but dame fortune frowned upon their endeavors. A series of bucks by Tynes and Ross carried the ball in easy striking distance, leaving the ball resting on the Catholics 4-yard line. Ross crashed over from this point, but on being tackled with a resounding thud by two St. Joseph tackles, he lost the ball over the line and an opposing player pounced on it with a vim. Taking the ball on the 20-yard line, two bucks and a penalty gave St. Joseph a first down. Veal took the ball for 4 yards and attempted a forward pass which was intercepted by Ross on the 40-yard line. He brought the ball down the field for 18 yards. The first stab at the line, gave the Bookers just a fraction and on the next play, Johnson got 11 yards and Ross for 2, putting the ball on the 6-yard line. Johnson came back for 5 yards and on the next play, went over. He failed to annex the extra point. Booker Washington scored a touchdown in the two remaining quarters, making an extra point in the third. Tough Struggle They scored, but it was a tough assignment these boys had to tally on the Catholic gridders.

The defensive play of Wilkins, Veal and Thrope drew the admiration of the entire stands, with the former two, most outstanding. Veal played a wonderful game, on the offense and defense, charging in from the secondary defense and making tackles on many occasions. The Bookers last score came late in the final stanza, when the ball had been worked down the field and Thomas, substituting for Nottingham, carried the ball over. There were numerous penalties in this game with both teams getting about equal amount of yardage. Booker Washington's penalties aided materially in giving St Joseph her three first downs, while the Bookers got a total of fourteen. The Bookers attempted fourteen forward passes, completing four.

TO CELEBRATE A TRIPLE EVENT AT SHILOH BAPTIST fifty-fifth Anniversary Of Church, First of Pastor; Installation Services A triple celebration will begin in Shiloh Church, Chapel near Goff streets, Sunday, November 21, when thirthirty-fifth anniversary services of the church, the first anniversary of the pastor here and his installation services will begin. The Rev. Volley V. K. Stokes has served Shiloh Church one year. Since his coming to this city he has earned the highest respect of the general public which regards him as a gospel minister of the highest type and a Christian of statuichi integrity. His congregation has found in him an earnest and devoted pastor, a strong pulpitpeen and a leader of sound judgment. The Rev. Mr. Stokes not only has served his charge in a manner that has won for him public esteem and admiration, but he has to the extent of his ability associated himself with every movement looking toward civic and religious betterment of the community. In this respect he has been particularly aggressive. The program for the triple celebration is as follows: Sunday, Nov. 21, 11:30 a. m., sermon by Rev. J. E. Felton, of Norwalk, Conn., and special music. 3:30 p. m., welcome address, Rev. C. Hodges; brief sketch of history of the church, Mrs. J. V. Hodges; sermon, Rev. J. H. Billos, pastor of Mt.

Sunday night the services will be in charge of the Missionary Circle. Mrs. Ola M. Sawyer presiding. A special program under auspices of the society will be rendered, after which there will be a general financial report from all auxiliaries and benediction by the pastor. Rev.G. W. Watkins preached an obedient sermon on the subject "Borderdland Christianity" Sunday morning at the Bank St. Church. The sermon was able in its application to present conditions affecting modern Christian life. The theme was taken from the entering into the borderland of Canaan by the children of Israel. The tribe of Reuben and Gad stopped at the borderland of Canaan. Today, there is analogous, to that hesitating the class of people who are on the outside of the church—lookers on. Again there is a class of borderline Christians who are on the inside of the church, just inside, just converted and that's all. They do not believe in leaving the borderland for anything. They are borderline in their services, in their contribution, and in their altruistic work. Borderline are always in immediate danger of going back to the world because they are so near to all. They do their fellow brethren an injury by allowing someone else to do their share of the work. Those who dwell on the borderline later realize the grandeur of a struggle, the taking of middle classes and fighting on to accomplish something. Thus, they can never accomplish much until they have the borderline, until they develop a fuller life of service. If everybody stops at the borderline there will never be any other or any further ground taken, no new grounds. There is at all times a call away from the borderline to those who want to go. One person is in duty bound to leave the borderline as much as the other. Closes First Year's Service Here 10 REV. V. V. K. STOKES "Spiritual Adultery" Subject Of Sermon Next Sunday Night "Spiritual Adultery" is the topic of a special sermon announced by Rev. Richard H. Bowling for the First Baptist Church next Sunday night. He says that with all the talk going the rounds concerning adultery, there is not enough being said about the very sort of adultery upon which the Bible lay most emphasis. Several candidates will be baptized following the meaning sermon. The monthly communion service will be held at three-thirty in the afternoon. A special feature of this year's Thanksgiving service at this church will be the going forth of bands of volunteers to express their thanks to God in some finite way. These groups will be made up of young men and women of high school age, of the older men of the church, and of the women of the Missionary Society who will be distributing baskets of good things to the sick and needy. Many representatives of these groups have already expressed themselves as ready to help make this Thanksgiving tell for spiritual advance in their own lives and in the life of the church and community. QUEEN ESTHER BIRD CUSS The Queen Esther Bible Class of the First Calvary Baptist Church, held its regular monthly meeting November 8, at the residence of Mrs] Lucy Cheatman. After the business part of the meeting was over Mr.] Cheatman served the class a supper, which was enjoyed by all. The class had a visitor from the O. J. Allen Class.

Street LAYS THE BIBLE IS NEEDED AS "A AMP UNTO THE FEET" OF MEN, WITH IN COLLEGE AND OUT OF IT The New Testament "The New Testament is also a remarkable piece of literature. It bounds in beautiful, straightforward narrative. Much may be learned in the art of the painstaking simple words from a painstaking study of the New Testament scriptures. I quote the words of Boyle "On the Style of the Bible," who said: "I use the scriptures not as an arsonal to be resorted to only for weapons and arms, but as a matchless temple, where I delight to template the beauty, symmetry, and magnificence of the structure; and increase my awe and excite my devotion. Digility there preached and adored." Declaring the Bible reveals the will of man's Creator, Dr. Watkins continued: "The Bible is a revelation from God. This book boldly claims God as its author, by declaring that holy men wrote as the spirit gave them utterance. It also declares this God to be a living God and proclaims Him the creator of all things on earth or heaven, the maker of man and the source of his life both temporal and spiritual and the upholder and sustainer of the universe which He, not chance, brought forth out of the resources of His own eternal Being. This then leads us to hold that this book that reveals the will of the Maker of man should occupy an exalted place in any institution that has for its object the making of men and women.

Fuller on Cumberland street. Dr. Boone preached at Queen Street Baptist church last Sunday and filled a lecture engagement during the week. His first ten years in Africa was spent in the Congo and the latter fifteen spent in Liberia, where he is now pastor of the first Baptist church in Los Angeles. Dr. Boone looks the picture of health in spite of his twenty-five years in the deystaining climate of Africa.

Because this book is the greatest transformer of the lives of men that has ever been written. Scarcity by perusing its pages have been transformed into sons of God and worshippers of the Christ. The teachings of Jesus are considered by such modern critics as H. G. Wells, himself not a believer in Christ a soul and I, to be the most powerful influence for good that the world has that ever lived. Then I contend that the Bible should be taught in our college classrooms, and then there revealed may have a chance at transforming and enabling the lives of the thousands of youth now studying to improve themselves for the performance of the great task of living. In performing this task the students as well as others should know that this book of books is the only lamp to their feet and light to their paths that is capable of shining the way and under all circumstances. In prosperity this book encourages against being puffed up; in advertisements furnishes encouragement and hope and in sorrow there is a message of comfort if there is a beauty with prayer for eyes that says 'Scarcely can we pray our eyes upon a single passage in this wonderful book which does not afford comfort of instructions to thousands, and been met with tears of penitential sorrow or grateful joy drawn from eyes that will weep no more.' Dr. Watkins, however, explained that the Bible should not be taught as a text book as other books but as a book of revealed religion. In this connection he said: "There should be an attempt in our schools to teach the Bible as a textbook of science, although this book contains important scientific data.

Mr. Jackson was a native of Hampton, having been born there in the year 1836, but came to this city in early manhood and made his home here for about 72 years. He was widely known and highly respected in this community. His was a character and a life of long usefulness here. Being a man of great strength and mental vigor, through his ancestry and his own life work, he was thoroughly identified with the people of this city, and shared all of their trials and struggles as well as their respect and esteem. Abednego Jackson was imbued with a sincere faith in the merits and achievements of his people. He understood their aspirations and characteristics, and though self-educated he was indeed a tenable man to his advanced age. Endowed with a prodigious memory and thoroughly conversant in history, he delighted to sit and discuss topics of interest. Democratic in manner, he had a magnetic and pleasing personality. His was an unbounded faith in the Christian religion, he having been a devoted member of Bank Street Church for 72 years. The only life of Abbednego Jackson had been a stirring one. It was closely associated with the history of the ante-bellum period. He was the grandson of Emanuel Jackson, of Bermuda, British West Indies, who was captured in Yorktown in 1781, while a servant to an English officer. There was born to Emanuel Jackson and his wife a son, Abbednego Jackson, in Hampton in 1800. This son was the father of Abbednego Jackson, who died here last week. There were two other brothers, Shedrach and Meshack. Their mother was of Indian and French ancestry. Abbednego Jackson first came to Norfolk in 1842 in company with his mother where he remained until 1847, but returned to Hampton and Imitations not Deceive ON by others is only an acknowledgement of Guide PREMACY.

That same year he was again brought to this city where he spent the remainder of his life. When Mr. Jackson was brought to Norfolk in 1854 he was hired out to a bakery concern for $65.00 a year. Finally he was sold to the concern for $1000, and worked inside the bakery for a year, after which he was assigned the job of driving the bread wagon making deliveries on the Portsmouth side. This was the year of the yellow fever epidemic that broke out in 1855, the contagion being brought here by a ship named the Benjamin Franklin. In the year of 1857 when the Elizabeth river froze over, the bakery boy, Abednego Jackson, walked across the river with his bread for eleven days, the big snow storm having made his wagon practically useless. In 1861 at the outbreak of the Civil War Jackson began to bake bread for the Southern Army, and continued until Norfolk was evacuated in 1862, and surrendered to General Wool on May 10, after which he began to bake bread for the Union Army. He continued at this until 1864 when he became ill with the yellow fever. Following this illness he returned to Hampton and with his father conducted a brick yard for two seasons, after which he entered the Quartermasters Department and remained until 1867, when he married Miss Margaret Diggs, of Northumberland county.

C., Nov. 18-Joe Sawyer, aged 65, who was charged with murder Tuesday morning as the result of the death of Elbert Jones, who was fatally wounded during a quarrel, was discharged from custody following a hearing in City Court, Judge Harris ruling that there was not sufficient evidence to hold him to Superior Court. The aged man was arrested as the result of an alleged statement made by Jones before the latter's demise. Sawyer was arrested on an assault charge following the wounding of Jones, but the warrant was changed to read murder Tuesday morning when Jones died. What little evidence the court had consisted of the fact that before the pistol was discharged several men had been gambling at Sawyer's home. Who fired the pistol is something the officers do not know. THE FAMOUS Philharmonic Glee Club In Recital Monday, Nov. 22, 8 P.M. Third Baptist Church Admission 25 cents DR. B. W.

NELSON HAIR DRESSING NELSON'S HAIR DRESSING THE MAGIC BOX THE MAGIC BOX THE MAGIC BOX Crowd Pays Tribute At Bier of Rev. Mr. Thomas Evan Raleigh, N. C., Nov. 8—Rev. Thomas S. Evans, of this city, died at his home on East street, Thursday morning, November 4th, after an illness of five weeks. Until stricken he had never suffered illness, and his had always been an active, industrious life. He was of an unusual type, small of stature but BIG of heart; preferring to give rather than to receive. He was generous to a fault. His love was for his fellow-man. It was all-embracing; it knew no geographical limitations and was not limited by race or color. All who knew him, black or white, respected the man and loved the simple, honest heart of him. Rev. Evans was born in Scotland Neck, N. C., January 20, 1855, was married on Nov. 18, 1854, to Miss Fannie F. Smith of Raleigh, at Tupper Memorial Baptist Church, by the late Dr. Henry Martin Tupper, founder and first president of Shaw University, assisted by Dr. Nicholas F. Roberts, who was then the pastor. Marriage however, did not divert his ambition, for he had not created a real mate, who was thrifty and industrious too. So he continued Shaw until graduation two years after his marriage with the Class of '86. Of this union came eight children, of whom six survive, and of these the parents have always had the right to be proud. There was Mrs. Lulu E. Evans, widow of the late Col. James H. Young; Dr. Frank A. Evans, prominent dentist of Ashville, N. C.; Mrs. Sudie Byarm, wife of Prof. L. P. Byarm, instructor at A. & T. College at Greenbush, C.; Miss Ella M. Evans, wife of Prof. L. P. Byarm, instructor at A. & T. College at Greenbush, C.; Miss Ella M. Evans, the business staff of The Union Refinery of Raleigh, Miss Ida M. Evans, in the Washington High School, Raleigh, and Mrs. Mary Brown, wife of Dr. W. R. Brown, young physician of Salem, Va. The funeral service was impressive. It was held in the big auditorium of The First Baptist church where the deceased was a member and was conducted by the Reverend Doctor O. S. Bullock, the pastor. Rev. N. F. Roberts spoke on "Faithfulness" as exemplified in the life of Rev. Evans while a student at Shaw. The president of the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Company, Mr. C. C. Spaulding, shaking with strong emotion of spoke with the beautiful, clean, selfless life of Dr. E. S. Smith, president and The State Normal School at Fayetteville, N. C., read telegrams and resolutions, while Prof. C. H. Boyer spoke briefly on behalf of the Masons. "Crossing the Bar" was beautifully sung by the quartette and the chair's renditions were appropriate and choice in selection. The Masons, Odd Fellows and the K. P's were out in force and paid tender and loving tribute to a departed brother. A large number of white people of Raleigh attended the last rites at the church, and the mountain of flowers and floral designs evidenced the high esteem in which the deceased was held by all who knew him. And friends from all parts of the state as we were from delinquent states found it difficult to even get a touch of the body. The last rites were conducted by the Odd Fellows as the body was being laid to rest in the family plot in Mt. Hope cemetery.

The PORT NEWS-- FRANKLIN "It is a far greater sin for parents to keep, their children out of school to work or for some other lame excuse, causing these children to waste to society their powers to enrich the world with new discoveries, inventions, art, literature and business enterprise. There is a field that is white and ready to harvest, and if the parable of the five talents Jesus used is properly studied, we would find that more people are going to hell for the burying of the Lord's talents in the capacities of these neglected children, than from liquor, dancing and other dissipation. "God sent the two men in the parable who knew how to handle money to Heaven and the one who did not know what to do with money to hell. There was not a word said in this parable about any of the things we forever harp on. This man was sent to hell because he did not know the full value of money and refused to be interested in a great economical institution. "There is something dynamic in the Christian religion. Its doctrine purifies the heart, cultivates courage and satisfies man's inner power. There is in-you a living force against which the world is powerless. You but have to know it and then learn to use it. For the Kingdom of Heaven is within you." PHOEBUS Ploeusus.

These sermons have been in every way forceful, and practical New Testament declaring it is generally conceded that the Rev. Mr. Allen has a style of preaching that is all his own. His exhortations are blasting and searching into the consciousness of men and stimulate a larger usefulness in those who hear him. He has preached six of the series of special sermons. Referring particularly to Negro church life, Dr. Allen declared that his observation of sixteen states has coincided him that "the hobby of superposition is all but defeating the larger purpose of Christian religion." "There are certain hobbies that eighty-five per cent of the earning of our group ride," the pastor declared. "Liquor drinking, dancing, card parties, theatres, improper sex relations, lying, rogery, etc., etc., constitute the first trip. The next points saddled will be superficial love that has its force in clever array of adjectives characterized with a thrillous tone.

Bank of Nansenmond. President John W. Richardson took upon himself to invite a goodly number of the ministers and preachers to come together and tell each other all they know about running a successful bank. They were there, and they did a lot of talking. It seems that some ministers are good business men, if we judge them by their business talk. It is hoped that this the first of its kind, may soon be repeated. Mr. Richardson and his officers have the best financial wishes and cooperation of this community.

Though it has a ponderous name and does ponderous things it is admitted that the society is not popularly known because the masses in the State or here. Its virtually insignificance place in public popularity as assured to the attention most so-called of our group succeed in corroborating themselves comes from fact that the Negro Organizational has never sought to play to galleries. Quite likely it is to a fault.

The fourteenth annual meeting with which this article is chiefly concerned began Tuesday night. The town of Cape Charles was prepared for the visitors. Dr. Cooke, the pastor of the entertaining church, with his committee, had set the stage for the gathering, and the farmers of Northampton and Accome counties drove into town to hear and see and learn. The Program Following opening devotionals at eight o'clock the Rev. Dr. Cook delivered preliminary remarks. He was followed with the address of welcome on behalf of the local government by Hon. A. F. Dize, mayor of Cape Charles; a welcome address on behalf of the colored citizens by Mr. A. F. West and one on behalf of the churches by Rev. Dr. C. H. Morton. Then the president of the society, Major Allen Washington, was introduced. Rev. J. Bencons, principal of Fr. Frederick's School, responded to the address and was followed by lawyer T. C. Walker, who spoke on "The Importance of Working Together." Mr. Lorenzo C. White, field secretary, rendered his report. Wednesday morning the convention get down to business in carousel.

Crawley, holding a similar position in Chesterfield county, read a paper, and Mr. Jackson Davis, field agent, of the General Education Board, delivered a most informing address. Thursday night Mr. W. Gresham, state supervisor of Negro education, delivered a speech which a brief educational survey of Virginia World was received announcing that Mr. C. Newbold, director of the Division of Negro Education of North Carolina, was quite ill at his home and would not be able to appear as programed. Friday Morning Session On Friday morning the session opened with the spirit of enthusiasm strongly manifest. Better Farms was the subject and Mr. T. B. Patterson presided. Mr. Charles McCune, a successful farmer of Cherition, spoke on "Home Production of Feed and Foods"; Mr. J. R. Thomas, of V. N. & I. L, gave an especially informing demonstration on "Poor Land, Poor Man"; as did Mr. John L. Charity, district farm demonstration agent, on "Poultry on the Farn." At this session this lecture of Mr. T. B. Patterson, district farm demonstration agent, on "Farm Loans," was doubtless one of the most informative morsels dropped to the farmers of Accomo and Northampton counties. A discussion that never lagged for interest followed these lectures and demonstrations until it became necessary for the presiding officer to bring the meeting to a close. At the close of the Friday afternoon session there were nearly 100 automobiles, some of the most popular make, awaiting at the church to take the visitors on a free sight-seeing tour of the county. A large number availed themselves of the opportunity of seeing the Shore. They returned at eventide prepared to do justice to the elaborate banquet spread in a hall on the principal street in the city of New York, in the affair. The table grace which was said in song was the only speech making here, as palates overruled vocal chords. Return To Church the banquet over, but not all the food consumed for the people of Cape Charles had seen to it that there would be a plenty of that on hand, the delegates and visitors returned to the church for the closing session. Certainly all of the sessions had been inspiring from the very beginning, but this particular one brought an enriching climax. Prof Miles Connor, principal of Baltimore Normal Training School, a native Virginian, spoke on "The Spirit of the Social Worker," Mr. John B. Pierce, of the United States Extension Service with headquarters at Hampton Institute and who saxes services for the extension service for Negroes in nine states on "The Negro Farmer, His Problems and His Opportunities," and Dr. P. O'Connell, of Baltimore, closed with a brilliant address. In fact, the speeches of this evening were gems of information and inspiration. It is not practical to give excerpts of all of the splendid adresses in the scope of this article, but it certainly is to be regretted that every Negro farmer and his wife in the whole South could not hear and see what was said and acted at the annual meeting of the Negro Organization Society. Of particular interest was Mr. Patterson's emphatic declaration that any Negro farmer of character who has the necessary collateral can procure a loan for productive farming from the Federal Farm Loan Banks, provided he goes after the farmer. Mr. Patterson denied emphatically that Negro farmers were being denied this advantage purported on account of their race read extracts from communications in quite some detail the manner of going after these loans, but urged that farmers make every possible sacrifice before borrowing from anybody. Of equal interest to the farmers was the speech of Mr. Pierce, who stressed the "live at home idea." He declared in substance that farmers will ever be economic slaves until they grow their own home supplies. He also urged "business in farming," advising the farmers to determine which is his money making crop and which is the crop that entails money loss, then have sense enough to stop planting the crop that is a proved liability. He said that a farmer should pay close attention to the manner in which his most successful neighbor does things and imitate him. Mr. Thomas' lecture and demonstration on "Poor Land, Poor Man" explained at some length soil building or soil conserving. He told how necessary it is that the farmer plant soil building crops, and then turn them into the soil, mentioning crimson clover as being one of the very best crops of this nature. Mr. Charity stressed the importance of sanitary henneries. He advised poultry raisers never to build poultry houses with the sunlight vent facing in any other direction save the south. He also gave detailed information upon the poultry breeds for the best results. All the health talks by the physicians and others were equally informative. Special credit goes to Rev. Dr. P. W. Cook for the exceedingly fine entertainment enjoyed by the visitors. He untimingly led his committee in doing things incident to entertaining the convention. The famous Virginia hospitality was never more generously evidenced than it was on this occasion when the people of Cape Charles threw open their doors for the guests of the town and laid before them the choice viands of the famous fields and pastures of the Shore. Thus the fourteenth annual session of the Negro Organization Society was brought to a close, but the closing of this annual meeting was the signal for the beginning of a new year of intensive effort on the part of those affiliated with the society to further its program as stated earlier in this article. What men and women of Virginia are leading in this resolve as couched in the purpose of the Negro Organization Society? Who is its official personnel Here they are, some of the most outstanding citizens of the State: Major Allen Washington, of Hampton Institute, president; Dr John M. Gandy, State Normal School, Petersburg, executive secretary; Dr. R. R. Moton, principal Tuskegee Institute, honorary pres- ident; Miss L. A. Jenkins, treasurer; Rev. Dr. A. A. Grunham, corres- ponding secretary Lott Carey Foreign Mission Society, chairman executive board; Prof. Miles W. Connor, recording secretary; L. C. White, of Richmond, field Secre- tory; T. C. Walker, field agent, and W. T. Johnson, vice chairman executive board. VICE-PRESIDENTS I. L. Dawning, M. Magg, L. Walkeer W. Dawning, M. Magg, L. Walkeer G. E. Kirk, M. J. Mauro, M. Grig B. Stokes, J. W. Earn, Mrs. Lui N. Pry M. Stokes, T. Shirey, A. T. Shirey, Alva Rausch M. E. Davis EXECUTIVE BOARD Its Achievements The Society purchased the ground on which Piedmont Sanatorium at Burkville stands, and presented it to the State, thus making possible the only tubercular hospital in Virginia devoted exclusively to the care and treatment of Negro patients. The record of this institution is in part a splendid tribute to the Negro Organization Society. Even at the very present the society is sponsoring a movement to raise $10,000 in Virginia for improvements at this institution, and Rev. Dr. M. E. Davis, of Portsmouth, is chairman of the committee having this movement in charge. Aside from the $50 raised at the recent annual meeting for general requirements of the society, quite a sum was raised and placed in the hands of Dr. Davis for the Piedmont Sanatorium campaign. It is of particular interest to note that in the roster of officials denominational lines are absolutely disregarded, and the same is true in the membership. Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterians, Episcopalians or what-nots work in pleasing and inspiring harmony in the Negro Organization Society. The annual meeting just closed by a Baptist church or a Baptist pastor will either a Baptist minister of prominence co-operating in directing its activities along with three Methodist presiding elders and several pastors and laymen. Another interesting phase of this society is that men and women work in it solely for what they get out of it in the pleasure that must come from doing good. Even most of those attending the annual meetings are on their own expense, "Service and Humanity" is the only compensation paid out by this organization except in one or two instances and it is the motivating impulse that holds its members and officers together year after year. Truly, there is not an organization anywhere to heat it. Truly its potential worth to the race, to the State and to humanity is immeasurable. We want you to come to us, exactly as you would to your best friends for assistance in your hour of greatest need. We strive to give the kind of Service that one friend would naturally render to another in time of need. Ours is a friendly establishment, every member is here to give you courteous treatment and to make you feel that friendship and good will are our first considerations. HALE & CO. Strictly Auto-service Day and Night Service Phones—Residence 37152 Office 22820 Headed Local Committee M. A. B. REV. DR. P. W. COOK, pastor of the First Baptist Church, of Cape Charles, Va., who headed the local committee on entertainment for the annual meeting of the Negro Organization Society in that city last week. It was largely then the untrying efforts of Dr. Cook that the holding of the convention there proved such a great success. He worked day and night i n interest of the meeting, yet with modesty and reserve practiced admirable self-effacement. Dr. Cook has pastored in Cape Charles church for 12 years and is regarded as one of the ablest ministers in the State. What Has Been Done The Society began its actual work August 1, 1912, with a vigorous campaign for school improvement and disease prevention. This campaign opened the eyes of many of our people to the possibilities for community improvement which lay at their very doors. Following this many new school buildings were erected and the sentiment created for general community improvement has been increasing steadily. In 1916, the Society became the State organization for Colored School Leagues and since that time more than a hundred leagues that were languishing have been reenacted, and more than three hundred have been assisted in their work. A total of six hundred leagues have been reached personally and many others less directly since the organization has been formed. The ten annual clean-up campaigns have induced more than 600,000 Negroes to make their homes sanitary. As an aid to this movement the State Health Department published their Health Hand-book for Colored people and counted 200,000 counties were distributed. Educational and health campaigns have been made through many portions of the State by the Society's agents. Special campaigns for social uplift were made through Southwest Virginia in 1913; the Shenandoah Valley, in 1914; the Northern Neck, in 1915; along the James, 1916 and 1917; Northern and Western Virginia 1919 and 1920; Eastern Shore, Piedmont sections, 1921; Tidewater and East Central sections 1922; Northern and Western sections 1922. The efforts to secure cooperation among Negro Farmers have been fruitful of good results. Assistance has been given in the organization of farmers' conferences, thus helping to secure for the farm demonstrations, agents an intelligent interest on the part of the farmers in the demonstration work. In its effort to educate the masses of our people in the means of disease prevention more than three hundred thousand health bulletins have been actually placed in the hands of the people. The Negro Organization Society assisted the Virginia Anti-Tuberculosis Association in the founding of the Burkville Tuberculosis Sanatorium for Colored People, having raised through the sale of tags, $2,000 for that purpose. SUPPORT The Negro Organization Society seeks to be an instrument of self-help in general uplift. It has one ambition—to serve humanity by serving the 'Negroes' of Virginia. Ia executive officers serve without pay. Only two or three persons who do field and clerical work receive compensation. Membership is of two kinds: Organization and Individual. Workshop organization in the State among Negroes is invited to aid in this work by taking membership or by making contributions. Member organizations will be used in their own localities as the agents of the Society in working out its various movements. The annual fees for organizations are as follows: State and district organizations, churches and fraternal orders, etc., minimum $5.00; County organizations, Sunday schools, etc., minimum $3.00. Local organizations, as as School Improvement Leagues, Mother's clubs, Literary and Social clubs, etc., minimum $2.00. Contributions in any amount are solicited. The fees for individuals are, for active membership $1.00 per year; for associate membership 50 cents per year. All fees are payable annually on the month and day of the first payment. The society maintains headquarters in an office in the Mechanics Bank Building in Richmond, which is in charge of L. C. White, the field secretary. From here its activities are directed.

It is splendid to have the urge to climb high. But the man who gets there is he who never takes his gaze from the finger holds in the sheer rock wall of his hard ascent. Pitiful it is to see the broken hulk of a man lying at the base of life's mountain side and to know that he fell from high when success had turned his head. Every day, in every field, we see these wrecks. And they point a moral that no man dare disregard. Life's work is, indeed, a climb and few and far between are the plateau lands upon which the breath-spent foiler may seek refreshment. How many are the men, in private business or public concerns, who, flushed with the zeal of attainment, despise the smaller tasks which lead them to the goal. How often a man who uses a public office to gain a higher honor, awakes to the rude actuality that he has been weighed and found wanting in his simple trust. The key to great opportunity lies in proving true in the obscure, humble tasks of the present moment. The man who keeps ever in mind that his present job is his main job, the present chance is the main chance, builds slowly, but surely, to broader trusts and greater achievements. The builder knows that the higher he would rear his structure toward the heavens, the deeper and broader and stronger must be his foundation. The digging may be dull and tedious business, but without it there can be no lofty tower to challenge the eternal stars.

He wants the eighteenth amendment repealed, with this reservation: that hard liquors should be denied to Negroes in the South and made available to white people. Asked how could this be done, he replied: "Well, you of the South find no trouble in disfranchising the Negro, you find no difficulty in Jim crowing him—and mind you I am not objecting to this—so you would not have any trouble in some kind of law to prevent the sale of liquor to him and at the same time make it legal to sell to the white man.

Result: It turned an army of Negroes into liquor manufacturers with an army of white gentlemen as their customers. As a sequel to that the jails are full of white gentlemen and the woods are full of Negro bootleggers. The official prison statistics for South Carolina and Georgia—two typical Southern states—show that for the first time in the history of the South there are more whites than Negroes confined in the State prisons; that there are more crimes being committed by whites than by Negroes; that the crimes which used to be peculiar to Negroes only are committed mostly by whites; that such crimes as murder, robbery, arson, forgery, petty thievery are on the increase among the whites and decreasing among Negroes. Without wishing the white population any worse luck the JOURNAL AND GUIDE ar dently hopes that some way will be found to put Mr. Maxim's intelligent suggestion into practice.

Three more were added to the lynching record bringing the total for 1926 to thirty-one, when three colored persons—two men and one woman—were mobbed to death one day last week near Houston, Texas. The victims this time were not accused of any crime. It appears that a white man had been killed by unknown parties in the vicinity of their home, and the mob killed them in vengeance. The woman and one of the men were burned alive. The other man was shot and clubbed to death. Following so closely upon the South Carolina horror of a month ago these lynchings set up a new record for the South. These lynchings will bring another storm of protest from the newspapers. There will be a desultory and perfunctory investigation by the legal authorities, and then it will be forgotten. But it will be surprising if the white civilization of the South will go on indefinitely standing for that sort of thing. The South demands that the rest of the country let her alone when it comes to dealing with her race problems. The South resents the idea of law enforcement by federal intervention where the Negro is concerned, although it is conceded on behalf of prohibition. But if the South can keep on stomaching its ghastly, sickening lynching record we have misjudged the "New South." There is another kind of "New South" indeed to be reckoned with in this year of 1926. Already nearly twice the number of lynchings have occurred this year as did in 1925, when eighteen took place. Each succeeding lynching grows in intensity of horror. The affair at Wytheville, Va., the triple killing at Aiken and the Texas lynching went to the extremes of savagery. What is coming over this civilized, Christianized country? There is nothing, apparently, that can be done about it, except to express horror and indignation. This government will go on, perhaps, spending millions on top of millions and employing thousands on top of thousands to prevent people in all of the states from making and drinking intoxicating liquors legally, while nothing is done to protect the lives and property of its citizens from destruction by lawless mobs.

That the Negro Organization Society which just closed its annual meeting in Cape Charles has earnestly pursued such an objective with a marked degree of success over a period of fourteen years is a high testimonial to the unselfish service of the men and women who compose this organization. At the meeting of the society just closed its slogan "Better Schools, Better Homes, Better Health and Better Farms" was re-emphasized. In the section devoted to farm discussion "grow your home supplies" was the point particularly stressed. The Journal and Guide is of the opinion that this point virtually constitutes the gap between economic slavery and economic freedom for the masses of farmers in the South, and not until it is effectively bridged will these farmers become the owners of their own souls. As was stressed by the farm agents, the market for the money crops may hit the toboggan any year and decline until it leaves the farmer high and dry in a financial dolimma, but he will not he so desperately embarrassed if he has had the foresight to grow a "food and feed" crop for which his family table and stock pens are a ready market. There can be no question that the Negro Organization Society's effort to aid the farmer is best aimed in the direction of helping him to help himself. The home, school and health program achieved and yet sought by the society is a definite and concrete one. There is nothing vague about it. There are examples of school improvement in the rural sections of the State which themselves testify to the activities of the society as there are examples of home and health betterment giving the same testimony. Piedmont Sanatorium at Burkeville stands on land purchased by this organization and donated to the State; the annual Cleanup Campaign is a part of its program. These are achievements which tend to enhance life and happiness, and the men and women carrying out this program are civic-spirited to a very high degree. Norfolk Journal and Guide THE GUIDE POST BY RICHARD H. BOWLING THE GUIDE POST BY RICHARD H. BOWLING The Way of the Duster For those of us who began traveling a little over a generation ago the mere mention of a "duster" revives memories of a fashion long since discarded. Always when going on a train trip, as when riding in a buggy, the men wore a long light overcoat of cotton or linen to protect their clothes from the dust of travel. I can see them now sauntering up and down the aisles of the coaches "dressed to kill" in their stylish dusters. But what we would think of a duster?

It strikes me, however, that there are many of our folks who have not paid as close attention to the change in travel fashions and street wear generally as they might have. Travel wherever you will, North, South, East or West, in day coach or Pullman, and you will notice no one of any race but ours wearing boudou caps, kimonos and bedroom slippers in an open car in the day time. Shop wherever you will, but save in the case of recent immigrants, you will see no one but certain members of our race walking the streets in the business section shopping in bedroom slippers. Read all the advertisements you please about hair-waving, hair-straightening, hair-glossing and hair-grooming, but you will see no one outside of our race sitting on street cars, riding in railroad coaches, and walking the street in stocking-caps! Funnily? No, it is embarrassing. These misguided offenders against good taste do not impress one as simply trying to give expression to personality in a unique way. They seem actually to think "it is just the thing." Pity, some one does not have the temoir to tell them. Such customs, if they ever existed generally, have now gone the way of the old fashioned duster. We are to wear the same style of clothes on a given occasion as the rest of our fellow Americans.

Unfortunately, this is more or less true, and we have come to accept the statement without giving it the second thought as to the reason why. The tendency is to put the entire burden upon the weary shoulder of the Negro editor and publisher. This is a mistake, and the sooner the reading public realizes it, the sooner we will begin to have better Negro papers. The American Negro has been more than sixty years free. He has developed very rapidly along some lines, but he has been amazingly slow along other lines. The reading of newspapers unhappily falls into the latter class. And it is the readers of newspapers who determine the success or failure of the newspaper. Good or bad, you get what you ask for. The Negro newspaper has made more progress in the last ten years than it made in all of the fifty years preceding. This is, of course, because more Negroes have learned to read and appreciate papers. The task before was to get Negroes to read any kind of paper. Now the task is to get them to read the right kind of paper. As the situation is today, the editor who has at his disposal the means to obtain the largest amount of news of scandalous nature, has the most successful paper. The reading public has brought about this situation and the reading public must remedy it. The white race has perhaps reached the point in its development where it can afford to wallow in the gutter and feed on fifth. We are well aware of the enormous sales of a certain popular type of white paper to Negroes as well as white people. But Negroes should realize that they play a very important part in the development upon matters which are purely racial, and begin to ask for and buy in large quantities Negro papers of the better type. tion of a dresser memories of a fashion long since discarded.

MEN AND MONUMENTS (Boston News Service) (Preston News Service) A most significant step is being taken by the race people of Georgia in their movement to erect a monument to the memory of the late Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson. This reminds us of what President Coolidge recently said: "It is only when men begin to worship that they begin to grow. A wholesome regard for the memory of a great man of long age is the best assurance to a people of a continuation of great men to come, who shall be able to instruct, lead and to inspire. A people who worship at the shrine of true greatness will themselves be truly great." Taking the utterances of President Coolidge as a suggestion for action, the Republican Committee has appointed Mee. Geo. S. Willinams, 467 West Broad street, Savannah, Ga., as secretary-treasurer, to take care of the contributions for the erection of a monument to the memory of the late Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, who lived, fought and died for the glory of the race and the country. It was the fearlessness of Johnson that brought about the national investigation of pledge in Georgia and throughout the South some years ago. It was Johnson who fought consistently and intelligently to have Negro delegations seated in National Conventions. It was Johnson, who through his wit, fearlessness, and superior intelligence, kept Lily Whiteism at bay in the South. We may be too close to the stirring days of Johnson's life and battles for race recognition in political affairs to fully appreciate the greatness of the man. Many of us may know too little about the things the man actually did to fully appreciate his worth to the race. It is well that more of us become better acquainted with the activities of the leaders who are making all sorts of sacrifice to maintain the standing of the race. A monument should be raised to the memory of Johnson and every Negro throughout the country should make it a point to contribute his mite to this worthy cause. Health Notes A Substitute For Pills "Stop taking headache medicine, indigestion tablets, constipation pills, and tonics," said a famous doctor to a run-down patient. It matters not whether the patient be man or woman for the advice that follows will serve for either. "Walk more—take some physical exercise every day, be outdoors and report back to me in two months." Everyone may not be fortunate enough to belong to a golf club and get in an afternoon or more of exercise weekly on the links. We may not all have access to a gymnasium, to a tennis court or swimming pool. Nearly every one has, however, his two good legs and enough money to buy a sensible pair of shoes and can walk at least a mile or two daily. Crisp fall days lure one out-of-doors and there is no tonic in the world that can keep one more fit than a good brisk walk. But it must be brisk to do any good If the "tired business man" can supplement this with a few setting-up exercises in the morning and at night before retiring, with a weekly visit to a gymnasium, there is no reason why any such desk-worker should become flabby, or have that middle-aged feeling. It is all very well to modify the diet and eat more wisely with the approach of middle life but a splendid diet regimen will be of no avail if the muscles are allowed to become stiff and the body is not kept well oiled with exercise. Neck muscles must be strong to hold the head erect and high; abdominal muscles must keep the organs from slumping or bulging. Arm, leg and trunk muscles must be reliable and enable one to work efficiently with vigor and enjoyment. Saturday November 20, 1926 There are tyo types of temperament in every race. They persist throug all time and among all people. The conservative and the radical are the complementary components of human nature. They are indeed, essential to social well being. Without the radical PETER B. there could be no progress; without the progressive, progress would not be worth while. Try all things, says the apostle Paul, hold to what is good. If all were the conservatives, where were the radicals?; if all were radicals, where were the conservatives. The conservative is cannot say to the radicals—"I have no need of thee"; nor yet the radicals to the conservatives—"I have no need of thee." Each has its place and function in the context of social well being. We discover these two types in the Negro race from the earliest times. The good and faithful servant, ever ready to do his master's will and ever obedient to his master's decree represented the conservative type and temperament. He found that there was a certain degree of comfort and easy enjoyment to be secured by conforming to the requirements of his present environment. He was wholly devoid of initiative, courage or self assertion, but was satisfied with the crumbs that fell from his master's table. He found that the more obedient he became, the more abundantly did the crumbs fall. He did not dare dream of freedom, for such dreaming would lead to trouble and frustrate the entente cordiale between his lord and himself. The great bulk of the slaves were of this temperament. From this type were selected the household servants and trustees who were given petty overshipping over the conduct of his fellow slaves. They came in closer touch and contact with the master class and absorbed much of the superficial culture and mimic manners of the ruling class. ★ ★ ★ On the other hand, there were those of unconquerable spirit. They could never be whipped. The prudent master always kept him as far removed as possible. He never became a house servant, but was always banished to the quarters as a field hand, and fed on meal and bacon. There were regular slave breakers, who were paid a price for breaking the spirit of these high spirited slaves. Often they lost their lives rather than surrender to the authority of the master's whip. They were often sold to the far South and subjected to the crude discipline of the pioneer plantations. Frederick Douglass was of this type. He tells us in his autobiography of the dual between himself and his overseer, who was determined to subject him to the discipline of the lash. Being the stronger of the two, he held his overseer's hands, but dared not strike him because of the dive penalty which a slave incurred by striking a white master or overseer. One might well typify these two classes of Uncle Tom and Nat Turner. Uncle Tom was the creature of fiction, but was as real as if he had lived in the flesh. He was meek and lowly of spirit. He received all that the master bestowed upon him, whether of good or ill, with a bowed head and thankful heart. On the other hand, Nat Turner was determined to take up arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing, end them. We now condemn, even abhor his violent method and bloody procedure. But we must remember that he used the only weapon of protest available. There was no freedom of speech. He dared not openly complain against the inquity of a cruel bondage. He could not mount the rostrum and air his grievances before the With this muscular development (not overdevelopment unless you are to be a circus performer) will come better circulation of blood, better respiration and better functioning of skin, intestines and kidneys. Prevention of sickness is our modern medicine. Nowadays we go to the doctor to keep from getting sick. One of our best medicines to prevent sickness is exercise. The National Tuberculosis Association and its affiliated state and local associations advocate exercise as one help toward conquering tuberculosis. This disease does not attack a healthy, well-functioning body. Their campaign, conducted for the past twenty years, is financed by the sale of Christmas seals every December. The Bravest Man In South Carolina The Bravest Man In South Carolina "The radical Negro, in current parlance," says Dr. Kelly Miller, "is the Negro who stands and contends for equality; while the good conservative Negro is the one who expresses no dissatisfaction with inequality, and tries to find comfort and satisfaction without remonstrance or protest." The term, New Negro, was an outcome of the World War, continues Dr. Miller, who sees this type of Negro embodied in the man who arrived on to battle to make the world safe for democracy and returned to chagrin and disappointment when he found that same democracy for which he fought as a world principle denied him. community or before the world. He must either bear the ills he had with fortitude and quiet submission, or do as he did. But there were few Nut Turners and many Uncle Toms. The great bulk of any race always belong to the conservative type. There are few restless spirits who are ever seeking to upset existing conditions, in quest of some better way. * * * A careful analysis would reveal these two types of Negroes today. They of course do not exhibit rawness and crudity of their ante types. The modern day Uncle Toms do not complacently yield to cruel usage as did the hero of Mrs. Stowe's story. But the millions of the race bear the burden of injustice, discrimination and harsh usage without murmur or complaint. The spiritual descendants of Nat Turner do not use the crude weapon of the Virginia insurrectionist in voicing their protest against the wrongs of their race. They utilize the more humane weapons of protest, such as the pen, the press and the platform to promote their propaganda. On last Sunday I was addressing the Young Men's Christian Association on this theme, and narrowly escaped a heated controversy, when I stated that if Uncle Tom were alive today, he would be a member of the Y. M. C. A.; while Nat Turner, if alive would join the N. A. A. C. P. No analogy runs on all fours. These two organizations embody more fully than any others these two contrasted types of temperament. The one moves constructively along allowed lines for the betterment of the race; while the other clamors for the full measure of human rights, without reserve or delay. A Negro of avowed radical temperament would find himself ill at ease in the one, while the cautious, hesitant or timid spirit would find little room for comfort in the other. The race needs both, and could not well spare either. They are both seeking the same objective by different methods of approach. During the anti-slavery struggle, radical white men led the way for radical Negroes. No Negro during that struggle spoke a single radical word until some white man had spoken it first. During the reconstruction era all Negroes became radical, in the outward expression of their spirit. None were satisfied with the present status, but all fought for chance. Equality was the catch word. Fred Doughlass still remains the Negro's foremost champion of equality. Besides By WILLIAM PICKENS The bravest man in all South Carolina is a colored man,—the Attorney Frederick who dared to appeal the cases of the Lowman boys and Bertha Lowman and get the cases remanded for new and real trials. He prevented at least the legal lynching that was in order, and was the first cause for bringing out the essential savagery of that State toward its colored citizens. Lawyer Frederick would have been lynched just like the Lowmans if circumstances had favored the lynchers. Frederick as it happened was not in reach when the lynching party was in action. I seems to me that we have overlooked the bravest man in the whole business, as we have gone about recording and commenting on the revelations of that Aiken lynching,—none of which could ever have been made if Frederick had not had the extraordinary guts in the first place to go from Columbia to Aiken and risk his head by coming in between the state of South Carolina and these helpless three people who had been railroaded to conviction by what the New York World correspondent terms as "farcical a trial" as was ever held. This proves again that Negro professional men are worth something to their race,—even in the South. There was not a By KELLY MILLER him there is none other with his voice so clear and strong as his. He added to a natural disposition to radicalism the spirit of the age and time in which he lived. 清 制 交 I might stop here long enough to state that the current definition of a radical loses its accustomed significance when applied to Negro protestants. The man who contends for the universal application of the Ten Commandments, the Gold Rule, the Sermon on the Mount, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States, ought to be called the true conservative. It is only the man who stands against these standards that should be branded a trouble making radical. But it has ever been so. The ante bellum Negro who demanded freedom for himself and race was denounced to be a dangerous man, a bad Negro, who by some means or other must be done away with. Our terms then are used in this restricted sense. The radical Negro, in current parlance, is the Negro who stands and contends for equality; while the good conservative Negro is the one who expresses no dissatisfaction with inequality, and tries to find comfort and satisfaction, without remonstrance or protest. --- After the overthrow of the reconstruction regime, the race became sharply divided into two camps. Booker Washington held the center of the stage Radicals and conservatives are rayded themselves in hostile alignment, more intent on destroying one another, than on offering combat to the common enemy. Then came the World War which made all Negroes conservatives. The leading spokesman of the so-called radicals, urged upon the race to close ranks, forget grievances, past and present, and march in solid phalanx with white America on the understood and accepted basis of inequality. The spirit of war makes all citizens bow to the common judgment or places them behind prison bars. The conservation of the War was largely a conservation of compulsion. The term, New Negro, was the outcome of the World War. Negroes either forgot their grievances, or held them in abeyance and went across the seas to help spread the gospel of equality. They quite naturally expected to gain a much larger, if not a full measure of equality at home, as a result of their valiant participation to promote this doctrine among others. But great was his chagrin when, after helping to bring democracy to others, he returned home to find that he had been fighting for a hollow mockery instead of holy democracy. I have laid a broader foundation that I had intended. The superstructure cannot be completed in one release, and will be continued in my next. "Heebies Icebies" To (By the Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill. Beginning with the issue of December 11, Hebbi Jeebies, will be combined with The Light, published by the Advance Publishing Company, and will thereafter be known as "The Light." white lawyer in South Carolina, perhaps not in all the South, with courage enough to do what Frederick did. Even the white lawyers who had been appointed to the court in the first instance to "defend" the Lowmans, so as to make their legal murder look right to the outside world, even these white lawyers, who did nothing, were afraid because their more names had been on the side of the Lowmans, and they were glad for the judge to apologize for their being "compelled" to be named as lawyers for these victims. Frederick has shown, as Seipio Jones showed in the Lorraine Arkansas, cases, that a Negro lawyer is invaluable to the ultimate protection of Negro people. And very often these lawyers are doing things in defense of their people which do not come to the light of publicity. Many an humble Negro's property has been saved from economic rape by the honesty and loyalty of some Negro lawyer. But South Carolina has always produced brave Negroes.—as witness the slave insurrectionists and the great Shields Green, an illiterate Negro who was at Harper's Ferry, and with the possible exception of John Brown, was the bravest man there. Let us all honor Frederick, the hero, of Columbia and Aiken, S. C.
