Northwestern Bulletin-Appeal

Official Organ of the Saint Paul Branch of the N.A.A.C.P. THE NORTHWESTERN and To Secure Equality Historical Society Bain Historical Blvd. Bain Paul Minnesota GOLD MEDAL RADIO WILL BROADCAST THE INAUGURATION WCCO Equipped to Enable Twin City Citizens to Hear the President. For the first time in history the inauguration of a President will be broadcast by radio, when on the morning of March 4th all America will tune in. The GOLD MEDAL Station, WCCO, is included in a list of twelve outstanding radio stations over the country which will broadcast the ceremony and inaugural address of President Coolidge. The hour is set for 10:20 A. M., Central Standard Time, and it is expected that the program will last approximately two hours. Preceding the start of the ceremonies, the GOLD MEDAL Station will broadcast patriotic organ music from the State Theater, Minneapolis. Every school child in the Twin Cities, 170,000 of them, will hear the ceremonies right in school, as both public and parochial school authorities in St. Paul and Minneapolis have agreed to suspend classes during the ceremonies. The Northwest Radio Trade Association has agreed through its members to provide, install and supervise the operation of receiving sets in every school in the Twin Cities, over 200 in all. To Hold Gathering It is expected that public gatherings will be held all over the Northwest during the ceremonies, where people by means of radio receiving sets may hear the solemn ceremony of inducting President Coolidge into the highest office within the gift of the American people. In homes, stores, factories, churches, school houses, theaters and other public places, all over the Northwest will be gathered the largest audience that has ever listened to the radio. The problem of carrying the ceremonies by direct telephone wires to WCCO requires engineering skill of the highest type and the arrangement of special facilities all along the 1500 miles that the sounds must travel over the wire to the new 5000 Watt Sending Station of WCCO, the completion of which has been rushed to insure to the Northwest an equal opportunity with the East to participate in this great event. It is expected that with the increased power of the new Station, which swings into action on that day, that all portions of the Northwest will receive the program clearly. Rev. Theobald Makes Stirring Address at N. A.A.C.P.Forum Meet The address given at the Forum meeting of the N. A. A. C. P. on last Sunday by Rev. S. L. Theobald of St. Peter Claver Church, on "Stock Taking" was well received. The little church was crowded to overflowing, and some falling in their efforts to get in finally left. All who did not hear Father Theobold missed a rare opportunity. The Forum will present in recital on April 13, at Pilgrim Baptist Church, Cedar and Summit, Mrs. Dovie Adams Welch, soprano. The next meeting of the Forum will be held on March 8. Father Theobold stated that the St. Paul Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. should be supported by all, not because we like or dislike a leader, but because the person at the head is doing the work of the association creditably. He stated that one of the outstanding accomplishments of the St. Paul Branch was the formation of the St. Paul Urban League, which with Mr. E. A. Carter as executive Secretary is doing wonderful work with an outlook for still great progress. A very high tribute was paid by the speaker to Dr. W. E. B. DuBois of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, both as a man and a leader, whom all should follow. Mr. Walter Bennett, 872 St. Anthony Ave., left Tuesday night for Timmonsville, S. C., to attend the funeral of his mother. BULLETIN-APPEAL THE MOSES OF THE NEGRO RACE Chief The late Dr. Booker T.

Atlanta, Ga., Feb.26.—(Special). In seeking an amicable solution of their problems of race relations, the American people are doing the world a service of greater importance, according to Secretary Kenneth Maclennan, of the Missionary Conference of Great Britain and Ireland, who is now in the United States studying the interracial situation and the status of Negro education in this country. After inquiring carefully into the Interracial Movement in the South, at its headquarters here, Mr. Maclennan said: "You Americans are doing a much more important thing than you realize, one which has significance not for America alone but for the whole world. The twelve million Negroes in this country are but a small part of the world's colored population and the relation of the two races here is only a segment of a world-wide problem of racial attitudes. Great Britain alone is dealing with a vastly larger native population in Africa and with some three hundred million inhabitants of India. Seek Right Solution "The best minds among the British people are earnestly seeking the right solution of this tangled web of race relations," continued Dr. Maclennan. "They are looking hopefully to America where the problems seems to be clearing up through mutual efforts to promote understanding, sympathy and helpfulness between the races. You may feel encouraged, therefore, to go forward with your efforts," he concluded, "seeing that they mean so much to millions of people in other lands." While in the South, Mr. Maclennan visited Tuskegee Institute and several of the Negro colleges in Atlanta and expressed himself greatly pleased with the educational progress the race is making in this country.

"The Chocolate Dandies" with Sissle And Blake Stars at the Metropolitan Sissle and Blake, those clever entertainers, author-composers now filling a successful engagement at the Metropolitan Theater, St. Paul, in their very newest musical offering which they choose to style "The Chocolate Dandies" formed their partnership several years ago and now all Broadway producers like to have a Sissle and Blake melodic composition or two included in their production. "We went into vaudeville with our own songs," explained Noble Sissle and we were delighted with our success. Probably every one thought that we were after the money. Well, we weren't. We had an idea all the time that the day would come when we could present all colored productions giving an opportunity to young men and women of our own race to appear in the first-class theaters of this country, to demonstrate what they had to offer as purely American entertainment. "Now instead of writing only songs," continued Sissle, "we write plays and the original songs that are part of us. "Do you thing there is permanent value in jazz music in popularity at Cancel Legion Night Call at the Metropolitan Cancel Legion Night Call at the Metropolitan Owing to the refusal of Mr. L. N. Scott of the Metropolitan Theater to stand by the arrangement entered into by his representative, (Mr. White), and the representative of THE CHOCOLATE DANDIES COMPANY, with Mr. Bannister, Chair man of the Activities Committee of the Ramsey County Central Committee, American Legion, it was necessary to cancel the call for LEGION NIGHT at the Metropolitan, Sunday March 1st. GIRL WINS VERDICT IN CASE AGAINST OFFICER GIRL WINS VERDICT IN CASE AGAINST OFFICER A verdict of $500 was returned by a jury against Mrs. Catherine Olinger, 1686 Iglehart avenue late Friday, in favor of Mrs. Roberta Kirby, 122 Fenton street, 16-year-old colored girl, growing out of an alleged assault on the girl by Mrs. Olinger September 13 last. The jury returned the verdict to District Judge Olin B. Lewis after being out an hour. The girl sued for $2,500. The girl, a married woman, was sent by her mother, Mrs. Beulah Davis to deliver the Olinger laundry to the latter's home on the evening of the alleged assault. A controversy arose over the payment for the work, and Mrs. Olinger, it was alleged, attacked the girl. Because of her delicate condition at the time, the girl declared that she suffered severe pain and injury. Mrs. Olinger denied the assault in her defense. NAT'L. NEGRO BUS. LEAGUE TO CREATE SCHOLARSHIP New York, Feb. 26.—It his been announced here from the headquarters of the National Negro Business League that the body will create a scholarship fund for Negro men and women who demonstrate unusual ability in the business field.

Hamilton will read an Uncle Remus story. They will broadcast at 10 p. m. the moment?" the interviewer ventured to Eubie Blake, who was seated at the piano nearby. "You bet there's permanent value to it," replied Blake. "I've got so much proof that it would take too much time to present all of it. One night as I was seated at the piano with my orchestra in New York, I observed that Ossip Gabrillowitsch, director of the Detroit Orchestra, and a very famous piano virtuosso was seated directly behind me, where he could study the scores and observe everything. He didn't know that I recognized him but I could see that he manifested the same deep interest ever increasing in jazz music. I called my men together and told them that we were being heard by a great musician at the same time intimating that we were not playing the kind of music with which he was acquainted. I asked them to give their best endeavor to put forward our style of music in the best possible light. Well for three succeeding nights Gabrillowitch was in the same seat with a guest beside him, discussing the music as the program progressed. Fritz Kreisler came and said that it was tremendously interesting. Frees Woman Held On Murder Charge Attorney J. L. Ervin Acquit Woman Of Conspiracy in Kingston Death Acquit Woman Of Conspiracy in Kingston Death The case of Mrs. Hortense Kingston, colored, indicted several weeks ago for conspiracy in connection with the murder of her husband, George Kingston, by Elmer Douglas, on the morning of December 17, was dismissed in district court Wednesday, for lack of evidence.

Miss Aurelia Wheeldin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Wheeldin, 682 Carroll Ave., who is playing with Billy Pierce's Brown Skin Vamps at the Moulin Rouge in Paris, France, is meeting with great success, judging from a letter which was written to the theatrical editor of the Afro-American, published in Baltimore, and which is printed below. Miss Wheeldin Writes. From distant Paris, Miss Aurelia Wheeldin wrote the theatrical editor of the Afro-American one of the most interesting and informative letters that it has been his good fortune to receive in many moons. It isn't a secret, so here goes, the little artist who is secretary of Billy Pierce's "Brown Skinned Vamps" or "Tea For Two Girls," which latter name adorns the head of the letter, says: "It is almost impossible to explain how happy we are over here, with so many historic places to visit and so much to see of interest." Revue Successful "Paris is superb. I am sure if it was not for the dear ones at home it would be difficult to encourage us to return to the States. The revue is a wonderful success and our girls are a great attraction over here. We are constantly approached by theatrical managers and agents to be booked as soon as we finish our engagement at the Moulin Rouge. "It is needless to say that Mr. Tommy Woods is a great sensation with his dancing, and gains well merited applause for his efforts. We, the girls, extend our best wishes to you." "Yours truly, AURELIA WHEELDIN." The theatrical department repeats that this is quite the most appreciated letter that has been received this season. The address of the young artists is Moulin Rouge, 82 Boulevard De Clinchy. Their telephone number, Marcadet 15-27, should anyone desire to phone. Bye and bye, Miss Wheeldin said that we were interested in them. Billy is right, we have more interest in them than Smith Brothers have cough drops. THEATRICAL EDITOR. Mr. Woods is well known in the Twin Cities, where he appeared last October with the "Runnin' Wild Company." His eccentric dancing was one of the distinctive hits of the show. During his engagement he was a guest at Hotel Henrietta. DEBATE HELD AT PILGRIM CHURCH PROVES SUCCESS The debate given by one of the groups of Pilgrim Baptist Church on Monday night at Little Pilgrim proved to be quite a success—Subject "Prohibition is a Success."

A NEGLECTED DUTY Douglass in his time often found it new race for its shortcomings. On such an years ago when addressing a large gather of things, that "as a race we have suffered, disparagement on the one hand, and the truth of this statement, born of close observation, and the deduction of applicable to present race conditions as Negro, us as the progress of the race has been, the indulgence of "undue praise." This is carried forward by the wheels of civilization. Thousands of our youth are assiduous thousands of young men and women graduate schools, colleges and the universities. With young people face the world in an effort to self support. Rejudice is an evil that exists and is a life of this government. It cannot be done in a day. It is deep-seated—deep-rooted in time may possibly eradicate it from save the nation from impending chaotic influence is felt by every man and woman. Opportunity is peremptorily closed in the self ambition is cruelly stifled and reduced to embarks in a business venture staking the world upon its success. Motivated by service to the race by giving employment, manhood his doors are closed by the slave. The crepe hanger who sought to dispair beginning is filled with the delight of sayliridiculous to boast of race achievement, ways to travel in the making. Foundation is being laid. The Negro is be a mighty race and a power for good, dar cry and not yet within his grasp, that make a race successfully great. Need to whatever tends to destroy and that can do much toward solving our problem opportunity denied us by the dominant race. Race pride should awaken us to know neglected. We owe a duty to the first invested in our young men and women to table and in keeping with talent. Micro must engage in mercantile pursuit, manufacturing, etc. If only a small percept input forth to create and maintain the most societies, where the only benefit deromp and a brass band, was used in the oil industry, we could boast of a flour mill factory or a shoe factory, that would keep us usibly employed in honest and constructive million Negroes—about ten per cent of the not a single nationally known commercial newspaper in the country. We have ins, mechanics, etc., unable in a measure account of racial difference. The world is skilled black hands, and in many instances that eternally berate people of darker hair to consider in the consumption of their life, its comforts and its happiness. Rejudice contributes largely to the soild immorality of the race. Lack of of incentive. Discouraged youth soon and despair. Will this apathetic negointinue as a standing indictment of a race'entialities for commercial activities are mouse immediate action. Frederick Douglass in his time often found it necessary to admonish the race for its shortcomings. On such an occasion more than forty years ago when addressing a large gathering he stated, among other things, that "as a race we have suffered from two opposite causes, disparagement on the one hand, and undue praise on the other." The truth of this statement, born of long experience, from close observation, and the deduction of a keen mentality, is as applicable to present race conditions as when uttered by this great Negro. Marvelous as the progress of the race has been, it is not sufficient for the indulgence of "undue praise." This is a rapid age; the Negro is carried forward by the wheels of civilization in spite of himself. Thousands of our youth are assiduously attending school. Thousands of young men and women graduate each year from high schools, colleges and the universities. With eager willingness these young people face the world in an effort to play their part and become self supporting. Racial prejudice is an evil that exists and is an actual condition in the life of this government. It cannot be overcome or overthrown in a day. It is deep-seated—deep-rooted. Education and Christianity in time may possibly eradicate it from the American mind and save the nation from impending chaotic destruction. Its cursed influence is felt by every man and woman of color when the door of opportunity is peremptorily closed in their face. The enthusiasm of ambition is cruelly stifled and reduced to a hope. A Negro embarks in a business venture staking every dollar he has in the world upon its success. Motivated by the laudable purpose of service to the race by giving employment to its manhood and womanhood his doors are closed by the sheriff for lack of patronage. The crepe hanger who sought to disparage the venture at its beginning is filled with the delight of saying "I told you so." Isn't it ridiculous to boast of race achievement? As a race we have a long ways to travel in the making. Only the foundation is being laid. The Negro is destined by God to become a mighty race and a power for good, but self sufficiency is a far cry and not yet within his grasp. He still lacks the essentials that make a race successfully great. As a race we must put an end to whatever tends to destroy and obstruct our ongoing. We can do much toward solving our problems. In place of awaiting opportunity denied us by the dominant race we should create opportunity. Race pride should awaken us to a sense of duty that is now neglected. We owe a duty to the fine intelligence that is manifested in our young men and women to provide employment suitable and in keeping with talent. The Negro must engage in mercantile pursuits, wholesale and retail, manufacturing, etc. If only a small percentage of the effort that is put forth to create and maintain the multitude of so-called secret societies, where the only benefit derived is to be buried with pomp and a brass band, was used in the establishment of commercial industry, we could boast of a flour mill, woolen mill, a furniture factory or a shoe factory, that would keep the flower of our race busily employed in honest and constructive endeavor. Twelve million Negroes—about ten per cent of the total population—and not a single nationally known commercial enterprise outside of the newspaper in the country. We have in our group skilled artisans, mechanics, etc., unable in a measure to find employment on account of racial difference. The world's best cigars are made by skilled black hands, and in many instances, smoked by white lips that eternally berate people of darker hue. The race is a factor to consider in the consumption of the commodities necessary to life, its comforts and its happiness. Racial prejudice contributes largely to the social evil, delinquency, and immorality of the race. Lack of opportunity creates lack of incentive. Discouraged youth becomes enmeshed in sin and despair. Will this apathetic neglect be permitted to continue as a standing indictment of a race? The potentialities for commercial activities are very inviting and should arouse immediate action.

He was thee of Americans created a deep feeling The first man to die in this country in behalf of its liberty was Crispus Attucks—a Negro. Attucks led an un-armed attack upon the British constabulary in resenting an assault upon a boy made by a sentinel. Hostile feeling against the soldiers existed several days prior to the outbreak on the morning of the 5th of March, 1770. A group of boys jeered and stoned the soldiers when a sentinel struck a boy with the butt of his musket. The boy reported it to Attucks and other American men near by. Armed with clubs and stones as weapons the men led by Attucks returned to the scene of the attack. The fighting began forthwith and resulted in a volley of fire from the soldier's muskets. Attucks fell mortally wounded with twenty others. He was the first to die. This massacre of Americans created a deep feeling of resentment throughout the colony, culminating into open hostility of armed rebellion. The motive that resulted in the death of Attucks and his compeers was patriotic. They resented oppression and fought for liberty—for freedom. Crispus Attucks was born of a free Negro mother about 1720 at Farmington, Mass. His father was a Caucasian. At the time of his death, March 5th, 1770, he was about fifty fears of age. The National Equal Rights League in requesting the race to observe the death of Crispus Attucks and the brave men who fell with him in the Boston massacre by fitting ceremony are rendering a patriotic service that should meet with unanimous approval. Through the munificence of Mr. and Mrs. Simon Guggenheim of New York in setting aside $3,000,000 for the establishment of the "John Simon Guggenheim Foundation" for the promotion of science, the arts, and of better international understanding, is exhibited a symbol of the true American Spirit. The donors have specified that the beneficiaries may be married or single, young or matured in years, of any race, color or creed, the essential requirement being a demonstration of potentialities for marked accomplishment or discovery in the field of the arts, science or other studies, and that what they may learn shall be used for the public good. Philanthropy based upon such broad humititarian principles is to be commended. It is blind to the usual narrow-mindedness of the prejudicial mind and sees only the brotherhood in mankind as a whole. Booker Taliaferro Washington was born in slavery near Hales' Ford, Franklin county, Vt., February, 1858; died Nov., 14th, 1915. After the Civil War he went to Malden, W. Va., where he worked, first in a salt furnace and afterward in a coal mine; obtained some rudiments of education in a night school there, and finally after many difficulties, recounted in the autobiography—"Up from Slavery" (1901)—got to Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute, Hampton, Va., where he studied in 1875-76. After a two years interval of teaching at Malden, he obtained further training at the Wayland Seminary, Washington, D. C., and in 1879 was made instructor at Hampton. He had charge of the work of the Indian pupils then being experimentally introduced into the institution and established the night school as a regular and successful feature of the institute. In 1881 he was selected by Gen. S. C. Armstrong of Hampton on the application of citizens of Tuskegee, Ala., to start in that place an institution on the plan of Hampton. The state legislature granted an appropriation of $2,000 annually for the salaries of the teaching force, but the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute then existed in name only, without land, buildings or credit. Washington, with himself as the only instructor, opened the school with an enrollment of 30, in an old church and a shanty. Later he purchased a plantation about a mile from Tuskegee, and removed the school thither to its present site. In 1918 the institution had 191 officers and instructors, 1451 students and over 2500 graduates. Its development was due chiefly to the activity of Washington in bringing the nature and merits of the work to public attention, and the originality and effectiveness of his methods. He aimed to give his race a practical education along lines of trade and industry, leading to an ultimate position of economic independence in the South. If this were attained, he asserted, political rights now denied would not be long withheld. He became well known as a forceful public speaker, his most noteworthy address probably being that given in 1895 at the opening of the Cotton States and Industrial Exposition in Atlanta, Ga. He organized the National Negro Business League at Boston in 1900. Among his writings are "The Future of the American Negro" (1899); "Up from Slavery" (1901), the interesting autobiographical narrative referred to above; "Character building" (1902), collected addresses to pupils of Tuskegee; "The Man Farthest Down" (1912). Several biographies have been written on the life and work of this remakable man since his death. Dr. Washington's greatness was due to his wonderful constructive ability, his tenacity of purpose, courage of his convictions, practical common sense, and lofty idealism. The Parent-Teachers' Association at Atlanta, Ga., has started a movement to raise funds for the erection of a monument to the memory of Booker T. Washington on the campus at Washington High School, Atlanta, Ga., "to inspire race pride and faith in the possibilities of self." The effort is a worthy one, and should incline Negroes throughout the United States to take similar action. Gleanings from Our Exchanges At the semi-annual meeting of the board of trustees of Howard University, appropriate resolutions were adopted in recognition of the great loss sustained by the passing of Andrew F. Hilyer. For twelve years Mr. Hilyer served on the board of trustees and his service was characterized as willing, cheerful and wholehearted. He was always ready to serve the university in any capacity and to the utmost of his ability. He was graduated from the law department of Howard University in 1884, his previous training having been secured at the University of Minnesota. The expression by his fellow trustees of the high appreciation felt of his long and faithful service as a member of their board was no more than due recognition of the meritorious service performed by him. This expression doubtless was gratifying to the bereaved widow, to whom a copy of the resolution was ordered sent. As further recognition of the value of Mr. Hilyer's service as trustee, it might be suggested that the board invite his widow to take the place left vacant by his removal. This action would give the board the advantage of another woman member to supplement the efforts of Dr. Sara W. Brown. The personality of Mrs. Hilyer, added to her long familiarity with the affairs of the institution gained from contact with her husband, would amply qualify her to fill the vacancy. Two women trustees would be none too many for Howard University.—The New York Age. The arrest of the desperate young criminals who last week blackened their faces and held up the home of a prominent Staten Island family, throws an interestif sidelight upon alleged colored race criminality. How many northern front-page screams of "Negro Burglarls" and "Negro Highwaymen" are there that should read "Black-Face Burglarls," etc? How many innocent colored suspects are railroaded to prison for white criminals of similar facial contour and stature! Only such incidents as that of last week indicate! Those sociologists and public officials who prate of the excessive criminality of the black race should take this feature of his alleged crime into serious consideration.—New York News.

Before me is a copy of the Bul- letin-Appeal of December 27, 1924, on the front page of which is an ur- gent appeal to his race for support signed by the publisher. Among oth- er things, he states: “It has had a long and tempestuous career, due to lack of appreciation “and financial support. This condition will continue until the race realizes the value of a representative newspaper in the cbm- munity where it resides.” This statement suggests to the writer, this problem: Are-we of the white race, .who have ever been friends and admirers of the ambition, the fixed determina- tion and the stiff backbone possess- ed by the Negroes of the former gen- eration, who as stubbornly refused to recognize—much less accept—the stupendous obstacles continually placed in their paths to prevent their advancement along educational, and other elevating lines? The race newspaper being the greatest aid of all mediums. Are we, I ask, to un- derstand by such appeal for support (which means advancement and bet- terment) that with the passing of the former generation, all the loyalty to race, all the ambition and all the many admirable qualities so char- acteristic of the progressive Negro, died with the coming of the new gen- eration? It is a shame, and an out- rage that that noble band of alert ‘active Negroes, so pronounced in the former generation, ever anxiqus to place their race in the best possible light before the public, should be compelled to have to be listed among the lazy, indifferent and:eareless ones of their race of to-day! The good Lord only knows what would be the result of the present generation were it not for these shining lights, the noble wide-awake enthusiastic men and women. One's sympathy goes out to them in their strenuous endeavors to awaken, to arouse and enthuse, their brethren to a whole-hearted effort along all'lines of advancement! And the foundation for advancement is the Bible and their own newspa- per. | It was more than passing strange that while pondering over the pub- |lisher’s call for support of the Bul- |letin-Appeal, I noticed the following Government statistics among my pa- pers, which follows fight along this line of talk. Every friend and well- wisher of the Negro, will perhaps be '| surprised as I was upon learning that in the cities of New York, Philadel- phia, Boston, Detroit, Cleveland, Chi- cago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis and St. |Paul, as well as in every city and town in the middle-west, west and northwest, where there is a public ‘|library may be found books the , authors of which are Negroes. But according to the librarians report: ‘|The Negroes, only in a few in- |stances read the books of their own |authors.” ‘To me this is remarkably strange, for with such writers (all '|well known to the average White i reader) as Doctor Scarborough, who | was born a slave, worked his way through a country school, then : through a ward school, then a high school, then worked his way || through college, then through Har- vard University, and finally through '| Oxford University in England, gradu- ating with high honors and receiving '|the “red hood.” His Greek grammar Is the text-book in the publie schools |in the states of N. Y., Penn., Mass., '|R. 1, and Conn. Then other famous and favorite Negro authors are E. H. Bethune, J. L. Curry, Booker T. Washington, Professor George Car- ver, L. L. D., F. R. 8., Doctor W. E. |D; DuBois, . . . Salter, Kate Brous- }sard, F. A. Bruce, J. A. Tollinghast, |} Paul Dunbar, A. H, Stone, W. P. Picket A. B. Hart, R. G. Browley; |c. P. Lyons, W. F. Livingston, and others. The above is only a partial | list of Negro authors, to every one of || whom every true loyal American can look and point to with genuine pride }}and admiration. But, according to | the most dependable authority, the | people of their race, who are readers, shun them. So they do also their own- newspapers. I cannot conceive how Jit is possible for one who considers -| himself or herself a loyal American, |true to his race, can even frame a ,|lame exeuse for not backing up in Jeveryway possible the newspaper | that always has and always will fight | the peoples’ battles, for JUSTICE, |besides giving them all the local AMUSEMENTS THE SHOW WE ARE ALL GOING TO SEE i (ST.

SOFT DRINKS AND CIGARS | Ladies Invited Minneapolis | Page 4 Washington.—For 38 years Liberty looking down on New York harbor must have blushed under the reverent gaze of millions of immigrants. Only in October, 1924, did she come into her own, officially—she was made a national monument by an executive order of President Coolidge. The order reads that Fort Wood, N. Y., shall be made a national monument. Fort Wood is no more and no less than the Statue of Liberty enlightening the world. In the same order that made the Statue of Liberty what the American people thought she was, four other military reservations or parts of them were set aside as national monuments open to the public. One of these, Fort Marion at St. Augustine, Fla., is well known. The others, Castle Pinkney, Charleston Harbor, S. C.; Fort Pulaski, near Savannah, Ga., and Fort Matanzas, near St. Augustine, are less well known. What They Commemorate. "A massacre which probably was the most terrible committed on American soil, the only intact example of a medieval fort in North America, the site where rifled guns first spelled the doom of parapets, the scene of the Civil war's first shot and the first successful submarine attack, and the modern world's equivalent of the Colossus of Rhodes—these are the incidents memorialized by the five new national monuments," says a bulletin of the National Geographic society from its headquarters in Washington. "History knits together the stories of Fort Marlon and Fort Mananzas, the latter 15 miles to the south. Don Pedro Menendez, the 'adelantado' on governor of Florida, founded St. Augustine in 1565 as a base from which to attack the Huguenot colony at Fort Caroline, 50 miles north. Spain claimed the Huguenots trespassed on their territory. But the Huguenots, French Protestants, who had come for religious freedom like the Pilgrims were to come 65 years later, decided to surprise the Spanish. "Their fleet swooped down on St. Augustine but a Florida hurricane drove the French vessels on the beach some miles south, wrecking every vessel. After a forced march Menendez captured Fort Caroline. All the defenders were killed and the -women and children were carried away. Returning to St. Augustine he rushed south to meet the shipwrecked French. They surrendered unconditionally. "Binding the arms of his prisoners Menendez started them in parties toward St. Augustine. Near the site of the new national monument, Fort Matanzas, he placed a firing squad. Florida's white sand was stained with the blood of 200 French that day. Matanzas in Spanish means 'massacre.' "Under the protection of the walls of Fort Marlon, first known as San Juan de Pinos and later as St. Mark, the Spanish introduced into America times, lemons, citrons and China and Seville oranges. "Discovery of coquina, a soft shell and coral stone, near St. Augustine about 1570, led to the replacement of the wooden structure with the material a visitor sees today. Old Fort Mananzas is coquina also. Thirty million dollars is the reported cost of Fort Marion. When King Ferdinand IV heard this he exclaimed: 'What! is this fort built of silver dollars?' "Today the War department keeps both forts in repair." A Gallant Defense. "Fort Pulaski is located on the sea end of a sand spit dividing the mouth of the Savannah river. Built on the site of Revolutionary Fort Greene, which was destroyed by a hurricane, Fort Pulaski was taken over by Southern troops at the beginning of the Civil war. Union troops attacking Savannah brought up some of the first rifle cannon ever made and demanded the fort's surrender. The Confederate commander replied: 'I have been sent here to fight, not surrender.' Despite a gallant defense the rifled cannon pounded out a military lesson that scrapped most of the world's forts.' "Fort Moultrie, that beat off a British fleet in 1776, and Fort Sumter, the Civil war's Serajevo, are twin guards to Charleston harbor. These two forts are still in active use so Castle Pinckney, an unused fort on Shutes' Folly island, has been named a national monument for Charleston harbor. It is opposite the point where batteries first poured shot into Sumter. Union forces used Castle Pinckney in their final attack on Charleston. It was in this harbor that the first submarine, run by steam, torpedoed a ship during the Civil war, but went to the bottom with its victim. Castle Pinckney also saw one of the first attacks of an armored fleet on forts. "Bedloe's island provides the footstool for Liberty. It has had a more peaceful history. France's gift of 1876 on the centenary of independence raised this $2\frac{1}{2}$-acre oyster island of New Amsterdam to eternal fame. The Colossus of Rhodes in Asia Minor was one of the seven wonders of the world. Yet Liberty Enlightening the World rises to 131 feet above her pedestal, 26 feet higher than the reported height of the fallen wonder of the Near East. The American people immediately accepted Liberty, with fear and enshrined her as First Lady of American History."
