A.M.E. CONFERENCE NOW IN SESSION Minneapolis Chorus in a Unique Musical Established To Secure Justice and Equality to All VOLUME III, NO.15 MU-SO CHORUS JS FEATURED IN 6TH ANNUAL CONCERT MU-SO CHORUS JS FEATURED IN 6TH ANNUAL CONCERT Appreciative Audience Hear Very Splendid Program in Mill City Tuesday. A unique musical treat was presented when the Mu-So Choral Club, under the direction of Mr. W. C. Jeffrey, gave their sixth annual concert at Wells Memorial Hall in Minneapolis Wednesday evening. The Choral club numbers were well rendered and the appreciation of the audience was thoroughly demonstrated by the sincere applause. The featured numbers of the program were-original compositions by Mrs. Kathryn Smith, solos by Mr. Mark Gibbs, instrumental number by Miss Marianne Jeffrey and select readings by Miss Mary Edith James. These numbers, together with the additional renditions by the chorus, constituted one of the best programs ever heard in the Mill City. The history and works of the organization were briefly stated by Mr. Wm. Smith. Record Is Made. This exceptional musical organization has made an enviable record because of its superior service to the community. Each members is a talented vocalist and Mr. Jeffrey is deserving of much credit for molding a splendid musical organization and keeping it intact for six seasons. The only regret is that the Mu-So Choral Club is not supported sufficiently by public-spirited citizens so that it can be heard more often in such programs as was given Wednesday evening. This organization has been featured over WLAG in a radio program, sang on various concerts at the noon day recital at the Court House and appeared in various other programs since its establishment six years ago. The Wells Memorial feel justly proud for having such a splendid organization on their roster and the Race is uplifted by the demonstration of talent by the Mu-So Choral Club. Weil Clothiers Employ Race Man One of the best known clothing stores in the city featuring correct wearing apparel for men of all ages is the L. Well Clothing Store, located at 433-435 Wabasha street. The clothing and haberdashery sold by this store are from such renowned factories as The House of Kuppenheimer, Clothcraft clothing; John B. Stetson, hats, Manhattan shirts, and Strong and Garfield shoes, all of which are handled exclusively by this firm. Not only is the best quality of merchandise offered the buyer, but the management insists that courtesy and satisfaction must be given to all. This accounts for the lucrative business received by this store from its patrons. The Weil Clothing Store is the only clothing store in the city employing one of our men as a salesman. Mr James Ware has been employed in that capacity for a number of years and is willing at all times to show the various lines handled by this firm, even though one is not ready to buy. Men who are particular about their dress should pay a visit to this store, for there you will find style and quality reasonably priced. The Male Wedding which was given at Union Hall by St. Paul Women for the benefit of the Woman's N. A. A. C. P. Defense Fund, will be repeated at Pilgrim Baptist church Tuesday evening, May 27, for the benefit of the N. A. A. C. P. Women's Fund. Many were unable to attend on account of the threatening weather on the preceding date. No doubt the church will be taxed to its capacity on this date. The same cast will appear. WELL KNOWN VIOLINIST WILL RETURN 09200 Clarence Cameron White, violin virtuoso, is announced to again appear in the Twin Cities in recital in the near future. Mr. White was last heard here on March 1. His return engagement is awaited with eager expectancy by all those who heard him in March. Mr. White has just completed a successful tour of the western section of the states, where he increased his great number of friends and admirers. CAMPHOR CHURCH CALLS PASTOR OF SPLENDID WORTH Young Minister Outlines Work That Will Be Uplifting to Church Here. The Rev. Ernest E. King, Mus. B.; B. A. S., B. D., Pastor, filled the pulpit Sunday morning and evening at Camphor M. E. church and delivered eloquent sermons at each service. Rev. King comes to us well prepared to carry on the great program of the church. He is a graduate of the Genach Conservatory of Music, doing his major work in vocal and public school music; also of the Chicago Y. M. C. A. College with his major work in general administration and sociology, and of Garret Biblical Institute, Northwestern University, with his major work in New Test Greek. He is a zealous worker.

A. College. He comes to us well trained to carry on the program we have been so much in need of. During his years of study at Garrett Biblical and the Chicago Y. M. C. A. College he worked as Boys' work and assistant secretary of the Emerson St. Dept. Y. M. C. A., which position he held for 3½ years. Rev. King has refused several Y. M. C. A. positions to enter upon this work. He is deeply interested in boys, and hopes to build up a boys' summer camp. The public is cordially invited to attend our services. MOTHERS' DAY WELL OBSERVED IN MPLS. Mothers' Day was well observed in Minneapolis last Sunday. All of the churches had special services in honor of Mother. Many people observed the custom of wearing a flower, usually a white or red carnation. St. Peter's, Bethesda, Zion, St. James', Border, Wayman and all the other churches reported nice attendances. Most of the Sunday schools had special programs arranged Sunday evening. Mrs. J. D. Bryant spoke at Wayman Chapel on "Social Service." Cecil Newman of the Minneapolis office of the Bulletin read a paper on "Mother." Forum Plans For SundayServices At the next meeting of the Forum, Sunday, May 18, at the Elks' Hall, 3:30 o'clock, our St. Paul friends will hold the place of prominence.

PROMINENT IOWA WOMAN VISITS IN TWIN CITIES Mrs. Anna S. Brown of Waterloo, Iowa, most prominent woman in Baptist circles, was a visitor in the Twin Cities the past week. For many years Mrs. Brown has made the Mothers' Day address at Zion Baptist church, corner of Hoag and Seventh avenue north, Minneapolis. Mrs. Brown is vice-president at large of the Western Baptist convention and president of the Women's Convention in Iowa. During her stay, Mrs. Brown was the guest of Mrs. Grant Bush and Mrs. Arthur Adams. Mrs. Brown was a guest of honor at the Baby Welfare Tea given at the Howell Hotel. New York.—The heavyweight match between Bartley Madden and Harry Wills, arranged for tomorrow night at the Queensboro A. C., but postponed when the outdoor stadium was declared hazardous by fire officials, will be held there Monday, May 26, if Fire Chief Kenlon approves alterations now being made. THE NORTHWESTERN ST. PAUL—MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, MAY 17, 1924 BAGNALL GIVES REPORT TO COVER WESTERN STATES Keener Interest Displayed by the White Group After Talks, Says Branch Director. New York.—Robert W. Bagnall, director of branches of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue, on his return from a Western tour, announced that following an address he had delivered before white business men forming the Civic and Commerce Association of Minneapolis, a number of the white men had announced they would give colored men jobs in their businesses for the first time. Mr. Bagnall's Western tour took in N. A. A. C. P. branches in Kansas City, Topeka, Omaha, Denver, Pueblo, St. Paul, Jefferson City, St. Louis, Milwaukee and Charleston, West Va. He announced that colored people in those cities had contributed a total of $2,037.63 in cash and $8,876.30 in pledges toward the work of the N. A. A. C. P., most of the contributions being in sums of $100, $75, $50 and $25. St. Louis led the list of cities with cash and pledges amounting to $2,560. Praises Mill City. "My Western tour," said Mr. Bagnall, "disclosed a keeper interest on the part of white people in the work of the N. A. A. C. P. than would be supposed to exist. The Middle West is re-acting strongly away from racial bigotry. Before the Saturday Luncheon Club of Minneapolis I ridiculed the theory of Nordic superiority and was supported by practically the entire group of leading citizens there. In fact, in that club a white professor of biology recommended race amalgamation as a solution for the present problems. "After my address before the Gymel Doleth of Minneapolis, an organization of prominent Jewish people, with 300 in attendance, they passed an unanimous resolution to make common cause with the N. A. A. C. P. against ractal and other prejudice." JOHNSON IS ELECTED TO SERVE ON TRUSTEE BOARD James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., has been unanimously elected a trustee of Atlantic University to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Rev. Edward F. Sanderson at a meeting of the Board held in the Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church of New York. "I am for economy" is a good slogan. A Dainty Miss A young girl stands on a porch.

About forty babies and thirty-five mothers were highly benefited by the staff of the Baby Welfare Association. Dr. Lillian Nye and Dr. Burton Rosenholtz delivered lectures on Child Posture and "Nutrition" for the growing child. Charts and Poster were on exhibition and the nurses answered questions relative to the Proper Care of the Baby. The affair was sponsored by The Everywoman's Progressive Club. Mrs. W. T. Francis, president, co-operating with the St. Paul Urban League as a part of the League's Health Program. The members of the club served tea to the Mothers and guests. Delightful musical selections were rendered during the afternoon.

The dolls were dressed by Miss Queen Johnson and were the gift of the Urban League.

The wedding is set for the FORMER TEXANS WILL ORGANIZE STATE CLUB HERE First Meeting Will Be Held Next Friday at Central Avenue Y. W. C. A. Residents of the Twin Cities who formerly lived in the Lone Star State plan the organization of a State club, modeled after the famous clubs of Chicago, New York, Kansas City and other large cities of the country. Texans, while remaining loyal to the city of their choice and the state of Minnesota, the state of their present residence, are proud of the record which their compatriots have made in every phase of American life. They point with pride to Col. Frank Denison of the Illinois regiment; Attorney E. E. Wilson of the District Attorney's office of Chicago; Dr. U. G. Denley, famous surgeon; James McNeal, leader of United Democracy, New York, and a host of others who are prominent in the affairs of the race and nation. Local Texans are not laggard in the affairs of the Twin Cities, among whom are J. Hammond Turner, attorney-at-law; Dr. J. Walton Crump, physician and surgeon; E. A. Carter of the Urban League and many others. The first meeting will be held Friday, May 23, at the Hotel Howell, Mackubin and Rondo street. All former Texans are invited to be present. ST. PAUL GIRL IS HIGHLY ENTERTAINED IN SEATTLE Miss Alice Melker, who is visiting his sister, Mrs B. C. Ferreau in Seattle, Wash., has been the honor guest at a number of social functions in the coast city. Last Tuesday evening Mrs. Fred M. James entertained with a beautiful dancing party complimenting Miss Melker and Mrs. Clifford McClain, a recent bride. Over sixty guests were present. Mesdames J. L. Phelps and R. Harris entertained jointly at a 500 party on Wednesday evening and on Thursday evening the Misses Ida and Emilie Brown entertained with a dancing party for Miss Melker at the home of their aunt, Mrs. Howard D. Brown. Many other affairs are being planned in her honor. It has been proved that the circulation of blood is affected by music—that is why we frequent cabarets. A savage has at least one advantage over a civilized man, in that he can see one-tenth farther, even on a rainy day. HISTORICAL SOCIETY Shop Every Week in the Bulletin- Appeal The Dependable Medium PRICE: FIVE CENTS 1600 DELEGATES OF A.M.E.GROUP MEET IN SESSION Many Gigantic Issues Considered as Best Church Brain Enter Conference. The first of the three weeks of the African Methodist Episcopal Quadrennial Conference at Louisville, Ky., came to a close Saturday with a group of big issues under consideration, all of which are destined to affect deeply the future of the church and to decide whether its policy shall be progressive, stand-pat or re-actionary. Amid the campaigning for official position, which has been vociferous and ever present, the church platform and program have still commanded the earnest attention of the 1,600 delegates and the sessions, according to those who have followed conferences for decades, will go down as one of the most interesting yet held. Much is expected from their deliberates, for in both the ministers and laity is some of America's best Negro brain and ability, and while sentimentality and mob psychology occasionally grip the gathering, on the whole it is a splendid, dignified, deliberative body. The question of rotation of bishops, limiting the time a bishop may serve in a district, easily holds the spotlight in the legislative program. Advocates of this measure insist that it will solve many of the ills of present administration, preventing despotism on the part of Episcopal leaders, the development of favoritism, and giving a squarer deal to the ministers. They point out that whereas presiding elders are now largely figure heads, they will be compelled to be truly responsible for their districts and that pastors in attractive charges in large cities can no longer play politics with some bishop who favors them. Those opposing the yearly rotation, however, contend that it is impossible to become acquainted with a district in so short a time nor any policy successfully completed and that the church schools especially would be injured. It seems probable that a bill ordering rotation every four years will be presented. Laity Wants More Representation. Larry Walls More Representation. Proponents of increased representation for the laty while believing according to prominent lay delegates that the pew ought to have equal representation with the pulpit as in other great Methodist bodies is willing to accept at this time an increase of their present quota of two delegates to a district. Women have heretofore had no part in the conference, but the question of woman suffrage is considered by leading figures from various districts as being fundamentally sound and its acceptance is forecast with certain limitations. Better schools and the standardization of the connectional, educational institutions, with a slogan of "fewer schools if necessary but greater efficiency, higher standards and sufficient endowment to do creditable work" is another issue much discussed. These items, in the legislative program are to the laty, while a number of minor measures, such as the raising of bishops' salaries, etc., are receiving their share of attention. Bishops to Be Elected. Election of Bishops and general officers will start on Tuesday. While but two vacancies actually exist, one by death and one through the retirement of Bishop Lee, evidence of extreme feebleness on the part of several occupants of the bench make it likely, in the opinion of those usually well informed, that three or four aspirants will be elevated to the rank of bishop. Few political conventions have witnessed a greater variety of candidates and methods used in many instances have had a regular political aspect. Trees, windows and the streets are full of placards, announcing the virtues of various "favorite sons" and astute looking gentlemen are button-holing delegates and whispering important informa- (Continued on page 4) The Northwestern Bulletin-Appeal AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY Published Weekly by the Bulletin-Appeal Publishing Co. 301-2 Court Block St. Paul, Minnesots Phone: Garfield 2075.

Member of the ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS “First in Service” THE NEXT GOVERNOR Who will be the next Governor of Minnesota is a question that is largely debated. Shall the Democratic party make an unusual race or will the G. O. P. win out or shall control be vested in the hands of the Farmer-Labor party? These are questions of vital interest to the citizens who exercise the use of the ballot because the continued growth of the Northwest is dependent largely upon the functions of the party in power. These functions are dependent upon the wisdom, acumen and forsightedness possessed by those put in executive positions by the desire of the people. The vote of our group is now playing a tremendous part in the affairs of a governing nature. The interest displayed in the recent campaign has had for its results the stimulation of activities in civie affairs by our group. The taxpayer realizes more that his duty toward the state is more than a tax payment twice per year. Citizens, whether taxpayers or not, are of the opinion that law to he most effective must be the expressed will of all the people and _ not the despotic edict of a few in control. We have not played the part in state iSsues in the past that have been demonstrated in the city affairs. The state government is as important as the local government. In this gubernatorial struggle it will be men, measures and pelicies that count with the voters of our group. We believe in the appointive positions given out from the executive offices of this state that recognition is due men of our group who can qualify. It will be expected from the various candidates that they adopt a plat- form consistent with the necessities of good government; this necessity is based upon equal recognition to all citizens without discrimination. _ We believe that the janitor position at the capitol is not enough for representation for the support given to candidates by our voters. Such has been the condition in the past, but shall not be in the future. The type of candidates who will secure our sup- port must be above the usual “‘Office-seeking politician” who promi- ises his supporters a square deal only to repudiate his promise when once the office is secured. The Bulletin-Appeal will use every iota of its power to inform the public as to caliber of the man most worthy of the chief execu- tive of our state. Party lines will not be the reason for our decisions. The type of man and his integrity will be the base of our dissension or approval. The liberty of the people must prevail. We shall not fail to oppose any candidate who cannot give substantial reason why his position as chief executive will pass muster. It must be goverament for all the people and not government for a part of the people. $25,000 GIVEN "YM. BY HEADS OFPORO COLLEGE The largest gift ever made by Ne- groes to any social or philanthropic work was the $25,000 made Satur- day, May 3, by Mr. and Mrs, A. E. Malone in the $3,000,000 Building Campaign of the Y. M. C. A. of St. Louis. When this gift was announc- ed to the Central Campaign Commit- tee, the Metropolitan Y. M. C. A. Di- rector stated that no single gift in the campaign so far would be as pro- ductive of results in securing large gifts from the white people as this of Mr. and Mrs. Malone.’ A special committee composed of the following men visited Poro College and ex- pressed to Mrs. Malone (Mr. Malone was absent from the city) the-appte- ciation of the entire Campaign Or. ganization: Byron W. Moser, chair- man of the Board of Directors of Y. M. C. A. of the eity; L. C. Haworth, general secretary; Frank L. Williams, chairman of the Committee of Man- agement of the Pine Street Dept. and principal of Sumner High School; Dr. J. E. Mooreland, who was largely in- strumental in securing the gift; H. C. Craft, Executive Secretary of Pine Street Dept.; R. B. DeFrantz, Cam- paign Director, and C. H. Tobias, Senior Secretary Colored Men's Dept. of the ¥. M.C. A. In response to the words of appreciation as ex- Pressed by the-several members of the committee, Mrs. Malone stated that she did not regard their money us belonging to herself and husband, but as belonging to God, and that in- stead of seeing it draw interest in the ‘bank they much preferred to have it draw interest in human character. ‘She stated that every time she saw ‘scores of golored boys congregated on the corners with few safeguards Page 2 about them, she felt that there was in that a challenge to her and her hus- band, At a mass meeting of citizens of the Pine Street Dept. gymnasium the next day, Sunday, May 4, Gov. Sweet of Colorado was present and heard a brief statement from Mrs. Malone as to why she made her gift. The gov- ernor was so much impressed that he requested to be taken to Poro College after the close of the meeting. He accompanied Mrs. Malone and a party of friends to the college, where he was shown through and expressed very great surprise and delight at the magnitude and spirit of this great in- stitution, Mr. and Mrs. Malone have been sSenerous contributors to many or- sanizations and welfare movements throughout the country. In 1915 they made what was then the largest contribution ever made by colored People to any organization, namely, $5,000, to the Building Fund of the Pine Street Y. M. C. A. Since then they have made such notably eon- tributions as $10,000, to the endow- ment «fund of she, Mediegt, Repart- ingik, ¢¢ Hp ard?

They have also been strong supporters of the work of Bishop W. Sampson Brooks in West Africa and ‘Max Yeargan in South Africa. The Colored Orphans’ Home of St. Louis ‘was built by popular subseriptions se- cured very largely under the leader- ship of Mr. and Mrs, Malone. This gift of $25,000 shows that the Negro is developing rapidly along business tines, and that he is willing to bear his share of responsibility for the social and religious uplift of his own people. When it is remembered that a building for colored men and ‘boys will result from the present cam- Daign and that this will be the sec- ond Y. M. C.

KAPPA ALPHA PSI START MOVE TO KEEP OUR YOUTH Pittsburg.—The nation is to have a new movement; one calculated t¢ eliminate waste of time; to economize effort and to direct and assist the youth of the race in choosing and fol- lowing the right vocation in life Such is the “Guide Right” move ment initiated by the Kappa Alpha Psi, national Greek Letter fraternity, with chapters and members at lead: ing universities and colleges through- out the country. The birth-place of the movement ‘St. Louis, Mo., where it has been suc- cessfully tried by the Greek Letter men in that city, Since its adoption last Christmas at the conclave of these college men at Louisville, Ky., plans and programs have been ar- ranged by the guide right commis- sion, headed by Dr. Jesse J. Peters of ‘St. Louis, father of the Guide Right idea. According to Leon W. Stewart, member of St. Louis “Y" and secre- tary of the commission, the move- ment primarily seeks to take the high ‘school students of the nation and guide them right. ‘The first step to be taken by the ‘movement will be to help the youth ana themselves. Heretofore trial and error methods caused a great deal of loss of time and has resulted in a misdirected effort. Says Dr. Peters: “Thousands of our youths have gone ‘into professions and studied them ‘without ever stopping to study the ‘most important of all, and that is the qualities, characteristics and short- comings of himself and the conse- quent relation of these to the success of voeation chosen.” A questionnaire, called the “self- ‘Analysis Blank,” prepared by this ‘commission, is designed to show char- ‘acteristics, traits, interest and ambi- ‘tions of those looking forward to a useful and successful career, as well as indicating the education and train- ing necessary to attain this end. ‘Three of the most important ques- tions asked the youth of the nation under the caption of “WHO AND WHAT AM I?” are: (1) Have you any system of saving? Bank account, insurance, investment? (2) Have you any habits which you feel might keep you from the largest success? (3) Would you welcome suggestions about avoiding or overcoming certain habits or temptations? Nowhere is the youth forced to study himself more closely and to dis- ‘cover his deficiencies than in answer- ing the Personal Characteristics query, The subject is required to fully and frankly answer each of the following questions: 1, Am I naturally a leader or a follower of the lead of others? 2, Have I shown myself dependa- ble to such a degree that others rely upon me to take the lead? 3. Am I self-controlled? Do 1 like most to be in a crowd or alone? 4. If I know of something espe- cially helpful or intereseng, am 1 anxious to share it? 5. Do I heartily rejoice in the good fortune of others? 6. DoT like to make new ae quaintances? 7. Am I given to boasting about what I have done or can do? 8. Am I naturally obedient, fol lowing instruetions readily? Do 1 like pretty much to rely on my own judgment? (answer honestly—both kinds of youths are useful in man3 enterprises). 9. Is It easy or difficult to make my mind stick to a particular thing? 10. Am I team-man? Can I co- operate? 11, Can I work with most any kind of people? 12. What sort of person annoys me most? 13. Do I make a strong finish ot quit easily? 14. How would I rate myself or the following matters? | ; Don't Let Your ; Don't Let Your ?

Leaders in every community are being urged to encourage the young men of the race to attend the Citizens' Military Training Camps during the month of July. The camps will be conducted in each of the nine corps areas into which this country is divided for military administration. In case of an emergency, colored men will again be called to the colors and in order that these men might be officered by colored men it is imperative that the race be represented at the camps and that these representatives successfully complete the courses of instruction offered. In addition to the military training, each individual will receive training in personal hygiene, and citizenship, and will also derive much benefit from the daily contact with other members of the group of mentally, physically and morally fit young men. Do not wait. Act now. Establish recruiting stations. Appoint recruiting officers. See that your community is represented at the corps area camp. A colored unit should be in each corps area. Where to Write. Seventh Corps Area—including Minnesota, Iowa, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, North and South Dakota, Army Building, Omaha, Neb. Eighth Corps Area—Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado, Fort Sam Houston, San Antonio, Texas. Ninth Corps Area—California, Utah, Nevada, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Oregon and Washington, San Francisco, California.

Some of them go on the theory, it is said, that even though they have no chance of election, it won't hurt their prestige back home to have been mentioned as a candidate for an important office. Able Men Before Conference. Leading in the race, if the expressions of individual delegates and influential churchmen can lead a definite conclusion, are A. L. Gaillard, leader of Baltimore delegation; Dr. John A. Gregg of Wilberforce, the popular and able president of Wilberforce; C. M.

Wilson of North Carolina, twice elected head of the important Episcopal committee; Charles Sumner Williams, Indiana's favorite son, sterling leader and orator, who is said to have secured the backing of several Southern states; Lindsay of Georgia, which state, with a big and solid delegation at the last general conference, elected two of her sons; Edward Wittenberg, pastor of Allen Chapel, Kansas City, the youngest of the candidates, but one whose career in Louisiana and now in the West has stamped him as a comer. The connectional offices have like- wise brought out a galaxy of fine candidates Famed Race Catholic Society THE CHURCH OF THE NATIONAL SCHOOL OF CHRISTIANITY The St. Rose Branch of the Holy Name Society, Springfield, Kentucky the oldest Colored Holy Name Society in the United States.
