HIGHEST HONOR CONFERED UPON NEW YORK ORATOR
HIGHEST HONOR CONFERED UPON NEW YORK ORATOR
Served as Lecturer for Board of Education for More Than Twelve Months.
(By the Associated Negro Press) New York, N. Y., July 6.—At the very moment when Marcus Garvey of "Black Star Line" fame was being sentenced to five years in prison for using the mails to defraud, another Negro just two blocks away in the Broadway office of the New York Telephone and Telegraph company was speaking to an audience larger than any which was ever addressed by any black man before, on the proper relations that should exist between "The Negro and the Nation." That was the title of the talk delivered by Dr. Hubert H. Harrison on behalf of the New York Board of Education, through W. E. A. F., the most powerful radio broadcasting station in the East. Concerts and addresses broadcasted by this station have been heard across the Atlantic in England and are heard by more than two hundred thousand people. This is the first time that a colored man has had this high honor paid to him.
Dr. Harrison's Record.
Dr. Harrison has been lecturing for the New York Board of Education for a little more than a year, yet Dr. Ernest L. Crandall, the board's supervisor of lectures, has selected him for many signal honors. After he had lectured for two months he was elevated to the dignity of a "Trend of the Times" lectureship, a position held only by seven other lecturers out of 500 or more in the board's employ, and including professors from Columbia and New York universities and City college. Dr. Harrison was selected in March as the first lecturer on the staff to deliver an address in the aldermanic chamber of the city hall, which he performed so well that the audience gave him a rising vote of thanks and requested the board to send him to them again. From October to May he delivers courses of lectures in the public schools and public libraries on "Literary Lights of Yesterday and Today," "The History of Civilization," "The Trend of the Times" and "Outlines of Science." The board of education authorities have frequently expressed themselves in the highest terms of approval concerning Dr. Harrison's work. This versatile and gifted man is said to be one of the ablest lecturers in the Negro race and is noted for his eloquent addresses before white as well as colored audiences, indoors and outdoors. His outdoor lecture-forum in Wall street before the U. S. subtreasury and opposite the office of J. Pierpont Morgan, is one of the features of New York.
Plans Lecture Tour.
His indoor work is equally notable.
He is always to be found at the dinners of the Sunrise club, a group of

F. C. STEVENS EX CONG. STEVENS DIES AT MILLER HOSPITAL JULY
Fred C. Stevens, who was a member of Congress for eighteen years, passed away last Sunday morning at the Miller hospital after an illness of eight weeks. Death was due to hardening of the arteries.
Mr. Stevens withdrew from public life in 1915, devoting the remainder of his time to the practice of law.
He was known as the Father of the High Dam, having initiated the movement which resulted in its construction.
Always deeply concerned in the conservation of natural resources, Mr. Stevens assisted in the establishment of several forest reserves and also devoted much time to legislation which brought about the construction of the Panama Canal and was also an author of the Pure Food act under the Roosevelt administration.
Mr. Stevens was a native of Boston, Mass., and was born in that city January 1, 1861.
He was a staunch Republican, serving as chairman of the city and county Republican clubs, secretary of the State League of Republican Clubs and later was elected representative in the state legislature in 1897. He was elected to represent Minnesota in Congress and served continuously as the representative of the Fourth Congressional district until 1915.
Mr. Stevens had many friends among our race. He was always willing to champion any cause for the betterment of our people, and for seventeen years F. D. McCracken, our realty dealer, served as his private secretary, residing in Washington during the sessions of Congress.
His death will be keenly felt by a legion of friends which he numbered both in private and public life.
ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, JULY 7, 1923
Gov. Preus Addresses Women's Club of State at Duluth Meeting
Several Women From Twin Cities Attend Session Held in the Northern City.
Gov. J. A. O. Preus declared himself as favoring the anti-lynching bill and said that if elected to the Senate he would not only vote for the bill, but would use his influence to have it passed, in answer to a question asked him following a talk before the State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, meeting in annual convention at the St. Mark's A. M. E. church, yesterday afternoon. Governor Preus spoke of the welfare of the nation, which granted religious liberty to all, and said: "We have the right to live as we please so long as we do right. We all have the same rights, liberty and equality." He spoke briefly of the history of the Republican party and paid a loving tribute to "that master Republican, Lincoln," saying "God preserve the spirit of Lincoln. God gave him the courage and perseverance to serve humanity and God." In closing, he said, "There is but one kind of American citizen; those who are loyal to their Star-spangled Banner. There is no distinction as to race or color or creed." He pledged a donation to the scholarship loan fund.
Mrs. Evans Elected.
Mrs. Susan C. Evans of Duluth was re-elected president of the state federation amid the cheers of her club members. Mrs. Hattie Hunter gave an illuminating talk on "Motherhood." She laid down several worth-while principles in child training, saying: "We must raise our children in the fear of God, with a respect for obedience. We must be an example our children can follow. We must teach them neatness, truth and to lift up their eyes for help."
An interesting discussion on social hygiene was led by Mrs. Savannah LeBrole. She said the topic was one of vital importance and interest to mothers and that it should be used by them in their child training. She scorned mock modesty and said that every child had the right to expect the truth from its mother. In closing, she urged the mothers to study
As we visit the summer resorts owned and operated by the Twin City Rapid Transit Company and observe the large crowds being handled so efficiently it is not generally known that the brains and experience back of this splendid service is a Negro.
ELSEWHERE
The Chevrolet and Durant Automobile companies are appointing authorized automobile salesmen among our group in the cities where we have a large population. The Negro Business League of New York City is putting over a Boosters' week program with a WHOOP similar to the one staged by the St. Paul branch of the Business league some weeks ago.
the vital questions of life and hygiene.
Another topic illuminatingly discussed was that of thrift. The teaching of the child to earn and to save was emphasized. Mrs. Leila Mundell was the leader. She suggested a chairman of thrift for every club and a budget for club pledges to the scholarship loan fund. "Have a plan, then work it out in spending your money. The virtues of thrift are industry, self-denial and the opposite of wastefulness. Careful planning, the wise spending and the wise saving of money and the effort to save money instead of wasting it is commended. Do not dissipate either your time, energy or money," was the closing advice.
Miss Mina Rickman gave an instructive and comprehensive review of the work with the Home bureau and brought to the members a message of more efficient homemaking and housekeeping. Happiness, contentment and health, she named as the attributes of the ideal home.
Financial reports were given and the revised form of the constitution and by-laws was adopted. A standing vote of thanks was given to The Duluth News Tribune for its splendid publicity and co-operation. The musical numbers were especially enjoyable. Misses Lelia and Dorothy Pittman gave a piano duet. Madeline Burton, a piano solo; Mrs. M. R. Adams sang the state song, and Amanda Byrd gave a recitation. Miss Bertha Bibba also gave a solo.
The evening's program was most enthusiastically received by a large number of visitors. There was splendid music and George B. Kelley gave a talk on the colored woman in politics, which contained many helpful suggestions. The resolutions adopted will be published in the Sunday edition of The Duluth News Tribune. The officers elected during the afternoon were installed in office by Mrs. Ida Sellars, honorary president, and Mrs. Pansy Chavis gave a report of the biennial.
Race Staff at Vets Hospital
Senators From Alabama Protest In Vain Against Ousting of White Chief.
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., July 6.—Notwithstanding reports to the contrary the Colored Veterans' hospital at Tuskegee is to be manned, from top to bottom, with a corps of Negro officials, doctors and nurses. The senators from Alabama have made a determined fight against this action being taken by the government authorities in charge of the work of providing the personnel of the hospital staff, but it is understood that President Harding has taken a decided stand in the matter on the side of the Negroes who have earnestly demanded that the hospital was theirs by every right and should be operated by members of their race. Negro nurses have been installed already (Continued on Page 4)
VIOLINIST FROM MINNEAPOLILS IS IN BIG DEMAND
Began Musical Career by Start ing Own Band—Now Travels on Orpheum Circuit.
Mr. Leon Abbey, violin virtuoso of the J. Rosamond Johnson Co., who was the head line attraction of the week at the Palace theater in St. Paul, is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Luther Abbey, 414 Twenty-fifth street east, Minneapolis. Perhaps no musician of the Twin Cities has received the praise of Mr. Abbey. His success is especially commendable because of his youth. On graduating from Central high school in Minneapolis he entered the University of

Minnesota to study dentistry. It was discovered that his musical ability would likely prove more advantageous than the practice of dentistry. Opportunity presented itself eighteen months ago, when the J. Rosamond Johnson Co. played at the Orpheum theater in the Mill City. Mr. Johnson, who is one of the world's foremost musicians, recognized the possible genius of the young lad and gave him the chance for development.
Made Good Everywhere.
Mr. Abbey left the university to travel with the J. Rosamond Johnson "Inimitable Five." The many different cities in which the troupe played did not fail to realize the merit of the young violinist. St. Louis, Chicago and New York papers spoke of the rare ability of Mr. Abbey and they are only three of the many cities where he has been lauded.
"Leon," as he is best known in the Twin Cities, began his musical career about four years ago, when he organized "Leon Abbey's Syncopated Orchestra." This local band was quite popular in both cities because of the unusual strains that just would not let your feet be still. When opportunity came to step into something greater the ever present initiative of the young man responded and today Mr. Leon Abbey is on the road to being one of America's foremost race violinists.
Mill City's Most Popular Young Girl is Married
Wedding of Miss Mary Elizabeth Coleman to J. Bord Crawe
A pretty home wedding was solemnized Saturday evening at 7:30 P.M. when Miss Mary Elizabeth Coleman became the wife of Mr. J. Boyd Crawford at the home of her mother, Mrs. Anna Coleman, 1102 East 28th street.
The parlor and hall were prettily decorated with roses and maiden hair fern, a color scheme of pink and white predominating.
The altar, arranged in the dining room, was set in a beautiful back- (Continued on Page 4)

RACE MAN NAMED SUPERVISOR OF MAIL FIRST TIME
Appointment Came as Surprise to Guests at Banquet; Appointee to Washington.
(By the Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., July 6.—When Second Assistant Postmaster General Paul Henderson paused dramatically in the speech he was delivering to Railway Mail Clerks, members of the National Alliance of Postal Employees, in the Appomattox club last Sunday morning and without a single person in the room knowing what he planned doing, handed to John D. Gainey, a colored man, his appointment as assistant chief clerk, bedlam almost broke loose as cheers and congratulations poured forth on the two. For the first time in the history of the railway mail service a colored man has been appointed to a supervisory position and clerks all over the country can take an added pride in their work because of the outlet for promotion opened.
Mr. Gainey was ordered by General Henderson to proceed to Washington, D.C., where he will be stationed and likewise was commissioned to visit the next annual convention of the National Alliance of Postal Employees which convenes in Fort Worth, July 11, as an official of the service and as his personal representative.
The assembly room of the Appomattox club was crowded with railway mail clerks and members of other branches of the service. General Henderson, who is the son-in-law of Congressman Martin B. Madden, had come all the way from Washington just to address the gathering, coming to the meeting from the train and leaving it for the station to return. He paid a high tribute to the 20,000 colored employees in the postal service, and especially to the 800 in the R. M. S., and pledged his support to the campaign which the Alliance is making to do away with the submission of photographs when taking the civil service examination. President Alonzo L. Glenn of the Alliance, stationed at Atlanta, who was unable to attend the meeting, but who sent a strong letter which was read, urged abolition of the photographs. It is said that practically no colored men have been appointed to the R. M. S. for several years due to discrimination on account of photographs. Among those who spoke were Mr. Galney, who is well known throughout the country, David B. Hawley, vice-president Appomattox club; A. L. Weaver of Chicago P. O.; John H. Passmore, clerk criminal court; Major R. R. Jackson and Josiah H. Jones, district presidents of the alliance. All commended the new spirit exemplified by the appointment and expressed their appreciation of General Henderson's part in bringing it to pass.
Virginia Lake was the scene of a gay party of motorists who left St. Paul early on the morning of the Fourth. The party was composed of Messrs and Mesdames Eugene Gough, Oree Locke, Quitman Hicks, Mose Johnson, E. W. Welsh, George Lewis, S. L. Maxwell, Mesdames Fred Brown, La Faucette, D. S. Taylor, Jeenie Young and Messrs Bradshaw.

In considering the coming presidential election and the various prospects who seem to have possibilities for entrance, we wonder just what sort of salve is being prepared to soothe the "pain" the present administration has given us. And what some of our Uncle Tom leaders expect to tell us in order to secure enough votes to get a political job for themselves. It is a well established fact that history repeats itself, so we might expect the same old story of "give them a chance." We have given them a chance for sixty-five years and the recent administration thoroughly demonstrated the perfidy of partyism. One thing that they accomplished was to teach the thinking voter to select the men and forget his party. Results are what we are expecting and not so many promises and excuses. Like other professions, politics has become highly specialized. Professional "bunk peddlers" of our own are secured to devise methods whereby they might again create the good will that has become lost through crafty manipulation of platform promises. One of the curses we have had to content with is within our ranks. Many of our supposed-to-be political authorities have sold the rights of their people for a paltry position for themselves. They have "stumped" for candidates whom they knew to be unworthy, when a few hundred dollars and certain coveted positions were in sight. For love of glory and praises of men they would sell their own race to gratify a personal desire. Many of there "bunk peddlers" have, after gaining the things wanted, forgot those who made it possible for them to be in their present positions. They consider themselves too classy to associate in church or civic affairs of their own people. It is this type of leaders that must be beaten along with the other kind of traitors.
The Negro press must be the medium by which this sort of politics is exposed. When those of our men have become so tainted with the desire of position as to sacrifice their own people to satisfy the quest for supremacy, the press must see to it that they are prevented from again carrying out their avaricious methods. The biggest issue of today is not the party, but what will the party do for us. The man that gives us a square deal will poll the vote in the future, regardless of his political proclivities. We have been the prey of designing men without and within for so long some of us have become neutral to future developments. This neutrality will be eradicated when the press has informed the rank and file as to the purpose of many of our politicians and their method of securing votes through false promises. The "party" will find a much different situation when the Negro voter is interviewed in the future, unless they produce the goods their stump speeches will be valueless, and some of our own politicians will have to do some unusual "bunk" spreading to offset their proven characteristics. Let us support Men—not Parties. Look for Results—not Promises—and advocate justice to all persons, irrespectively.

The Conditions as Found at Rock Island, Together With the Changes Made in Sleeping Quarters.
We are going to be men in the future, as we have always been in the past, but we are not going to build up great things and get no results for ourselves or our people, as has been too long the case in the past.
I have been with our company, the old reliable C. B. & Q., on her now famous line where nature smiles 300 miles, for nearly ten years. About a month ago I was asked to come into a new district. I will try to give an idea of the impressions the sleeping quarters made upon me. The location was not good to say the least. When you entered the place there was not one inviting scene to greet the eye; instead there were old dirty rags stuck in broken windows and on the walls, a few broken chairs, overhead where once were bright lights none were to be seen, instead there were small old-fashioned lamps from which there was not sufficient light to permit the reading of a letter from home, much less a letter from your sweetheart. When at last you are ready to retire you do so without bath or toilet. Then you lay down, after saying your prayers, if you can find a clean place to kneel, and you lay your head and body where other fellows good and bad have laid on mattresses with their insides falling out because they refuse to remain longer in such dirty company.
All in all, we should invite the doctor who examines us each three months to take a look in where we are required to sleep before we return for another examination.
When the night conditions are compared with the day, one wonders how long we are going to be permitted to live this fake life. Men sleeping in filth are brought face to face in million dollar dining cars to serve in spotless white attire, but full of germs under the pure white linen. He that hath eyes to see, let him go and see, not only this bunk house, but others of its kind all over the country. The only thing about the whole affair that is worth mentioning is the name of the places. They are called bunk houses and I want to say that the name should always remain, unless some one would be bold enough to call them junk bunk houses.
We men of the rails know what we are doing for the great dining car systems of the railroad companies and we want the traveling public to know the conditions under which we work. We declare war on the practice of sleeping in the cess pools and serving in the palaces.
It gives me pleasure to announce to you gentlemen that this letter has brought results; the men have been moved from the river bottom into the bright lights of the city, with living quarters on the avenue. Going some. If you get the idea, do likewise with your company.
Remember, gentlemen, you have the Bulletin at your service to publish anything you write along railroad lines.

Last Tuesday night the streets of Tuskegee, Ala., were lined with Macon County citizens watching a thousand robed Ku Klux Klansmen parade in protest to race doctors being placed in charge at the New Government Hospital for disabled Negro veterans located at Tuskegee. The parade was declared "to represent the spirit of 50,000 Alabama Klansmen. We agree that it did characterize the cowardly nature of the ever present feeling of prejudice and furthermore of Un-American principles. From this occasion we can more readily visualize the importance of electing J. A. O. Preus to the United States Senate. Preus has pledged himself to support the Dyer Bill, and did so without attempting to capitalize the pledge to secure our votes. We cannot support a better man to help eradicate such principles as were displayed at Tuskegee by the hooded criminals. July 16 will be election day. The many things to our advantage in supporting J. A. O. Preus can be recognized when a comparison is made of the various candidates for election. In supporting Governor Preus for Senator we not only support a good candidate, but one who has showed his worth and fully proven his friendship toward us. We personally indorse him on his merit. We are sure that no candidate for Senator is his equal, whether in education or American principles, he stands head and shoulders above his opponents. Show your racial pride and soberness of thought by giving your vote to the best candidate—Governor J. A. O. Preus, Republican choice for Senator.
In submitting these articles to the readers of the Bulletin, I feel it but just to explain that they are the personal opinions of the writer and in no wise are to be construed as the policy or attitude of this paper on public questions. The BULLETIN has an editorial staff that is fully qualified to express the opinions and policy of Bulletin on all such questions. Probably the most important event in the-interests of the race of recent occurrence was the launching of the Urban League in St. Paul.
When we become more conversant with its workings and realize something of its civic, economic and industrial value, our people will fully support it, I am sure. There is some misunderstanding at present as to the proper methods of organization, but it is hoped that all the factions may get together harmoniously and let personal ambitions step aside for the good of the race in general.
Last week a Negro was arrested in Savannah, Ga., charged with the usual crime against a white woman. In accordance with the usual custom a mob of about two thousand formed to have their little "lynching bee." But the sheriff, whose name was Merritt (a most appropriate one) gathered his deputies together and told them (the mob) to go home, as there would be no lynching. They thought it was the usual official bluff that is so often pulled down there, and would not stop. When they had crossed a "dead line" which the sheriff had designated he opened fire. When the smoke had cleared away, one of the mob was dead and a number wounded and the sheriff still had his prisoner. The governor then dispatched some state troops and Savannah was placed under martial law for a period of three days and no one was allowed on the streets after 8 P. M. This incident is related because it shows that lynching can be prevented when those in authority make up their minds to that effect and have the courage to perform their official duties. Praise is due to Governor Hardwick and Sheriff Merritt for their vigorous stand for law and order. Of course, all good citizens, both black and white, sincerely regret that someone lost his life, but if somebody has to be killed in order to preserve the dignity of the courts and uphold the honor and good name of the country, it's probably best that it was a member of the mob, for as a general rule the kind of men who compose mobs can generally best be spared from a community. Just how much the work of the N. A. A. C. P. and the recent propaganda in the interest of the Dyer anti-lynching bill had to do with the awakening of these officials to their duties is open to conjecture.
Speaking of the N. A. A. C. P., what's the matter with the Twin Cities branches? In spite of the interest that was apparently aroused by the visit of Congressman Dyer, there has been scarcely any increase in the membership of either branch. What's the reason?
In the death of former Congressman F. C. Stevens, who passed away last Sunday, our race has lost a champion and true friend throughout his entire term as a member of Congress. He always espoused any cause for the just treatment of the Negro. For a number of years he kept our own Mr. Fred McCracken as his private secretary. In spite of the criticisms and overtures of his colleagues, he steadfastly refused to remove this member of the race from the important position which he continued to hold until Mr. Stevens passed out of office. Negroes throughout the country will feel that in the passing of former Congressman Stevens the race has lost a champion and a personal friend. Peace to his ashes! Negroes of Minnesota should give careful study to the coming sena-

"I'll be gone only a week, but you'll keep me in your thoughts every minute, won't you, dear?"
The girl in his arms trembled. She was so exquisitely happy. What a wonderful lover he was!
"Promise," Dick Shanton urged again.
"How could I forget you?" she asked.
"Or I you." He kissed her again.
"When are you going?"
"Tomorrow morning at eight."
She wept a little. How could she stand it? Yet she had to—women did it all the time, so she could. And there would be telegraphs and letters and maybe a long-distance telephone call.
"Do you just have to go?" she asked after a pause.
"Yes, I'm down on the program for a paper that I worked on until two this morning."
"Doctors are such important creatures, and already I'm beginning to believe they don't belong to their wives at all. They belong to their profession—wedded to it, that's it."
"If a man is to make a success in his profession, no matter what it is, he'll have to devote most of his time to it."
"I know," she admitted, but there was something pathetic about her tone of voice.
He left the next morning, and Constance McGuire slipped away in her little car to the depot. When he saw her coming through the crowd toward him his heart leaped and he darted forward to meet her.
"What a girl! I was feeling a bit blue, but now I'm all right. If it weren't for those darn doctors standing over there I'd kiss you on the spot, but they'd rag me about it."
They had a few short minutes together before the train was called for the last time, and Constance went back to her waiting car, depressed, yet s'mehow happy. After all, a week wasn't so very long, and she would hear from him constantly. She might even get a telegram that very night.
Returning home, she found herself strangely idle. Time dragged, she could think of nothing to do. She wandered around the house almlessly, the hands of the clock appeared to be standing perfectly still—never had there been such a stretch between breakfast and lunch, yet she was not hungry.
That night the telegram came:
"Arrived O. K. Meetings are going to be great. Will write tomorrow. Love. Dick."
Sure enough, goodness knows; but it cheered her up, and the day after tomorrow the letter would come. It did, but it was very little longer than the wire, and all about the medical convention, scarcely a word about her and his love for her.
He had forgotten her and how much they meant to each other. It could not be otherwise—out of sight, out of mind. That was it. Constance went around trying to hide her unhappiness, but as the fifth day of his absence dawned and only two short notes had been received she gave up the fight and crawled into her own room and locked the door. She would never show her face again; she could not bear to be looked at and pitted.
When Mrs. McGuire went in to lunch and found her daughter missing she ran all over the house calling her, at last to find that she was locked in her room, and no amount of coaxing would bring her out. Finally Mrs. Taylor was summoned. If any one on earth could do anything with Constance it was she.
"This is Mrs. Taylor, dear," she said through the door. "You must let me in or I shall go away heartbroken, and I've loved you all your life."
After long minutes of coaxing the door was opened and Mrs. Taylor saw a/orlorn, disheveled, red-eyed, little girl standing before her.
"My dear, what is the matter?" she asked in alarm, taking her in her arms.
Constance tried to keep her troubles to herself, but the older woman's warm, motherly sympathy was too much for the girl and she burst into tears and sobbed the whole dreadful truth out on her friend's shoulder.
"It's all over. Dick doesn't love me any more. He's met some other g girl at the convention."
"Oh, my poor, poor dear, but it can't be true. Dick isn't that kind. How do you know all this? Has he confessed?
"N-ne, but his actions have; only two tiny notes and a telegram since he left and they were about as affectionate as a letter you'd write to your lawyer."
Mrs. Taylor was relieved. "Oh is that all you have to go by? You frightened me at first. Will you let me read them?"
Silently Constance handed over the two crumpled little letters and the message, and Mrs. Taylor quickly scanned them.
"Why, my dear, you foolish little girl. This is all right. He's just full of the convention and busy. 'That's all. Can't you see it? With a woman, Constance, love is the primary thing in her life. She thinks about her lover all day and half the night, but with a man business and love have a neck and neck race and often business gets the lead. It's a fortunate thing, since men have to earn the living. Divided
attention never makes a success, so you see it's providential."
"But you can't fool me. It's all over. Wait until he gets back, then you'll know."
"Wait until you've been married thirty years and then you'll know. I tell you a man can love a woman to distraction and forget her completely; forget her very existence, for days at a time. Now, if you take my advice, you'll treat him as naturally as ever when he comes back and tell him how glad you are to see him, and ask him all about the convention. He'll talk your head off for hours about things you can't understand, and that don't interest you, but a wife has to learn to be a good listening post."
"But what's the use of advising when it's all off and I'll never marry anyone else?" she said, impatiently.
The extension telephone on her litte desk jangled. Irritably she took up the receiver.
"I'm back!" said an exultant voice at the other end. "I know it's two days earlier than you expected me, but I couldn't stay away another minute. Had to see my girl, and tell her all about it. It's been great! May I come right over? But I can't wait. I'll have to tell you now they've made me president of the State Medical society. I'm the youngest man ever got it. When I heard that last night I had to run home and tell my girl. I was afraid you'd see it in the paper first. Goodby, dear. Be right over."
"Oh, oh, oh! Mrs. Taylor, it's all right! It's all right! Oh, but if you ever, ever tell him!"
She was dancing around the room, almost hysterical.
"Tell him? Not I," laughed Mrs. Taylor. "I'm no traitor to my sex, but I want you to remember this little experience. You'll need it many, many times in the years to come."
MADE LUNCHEON FOR EAGLE
Marmot Put Up Good Fight, but Was Outclassed by the Monarch of the Air.
Dr. Ferdinand Ossendowski, in his book, "Beasts, Men and Gods," which is the story of many extraordinary personal experiences of his flight through Asia, from Siberia, tells of an exciting picture he witnessed when he passed through a marmot colony near the Orkhon river, in Mongolia. The marmots dwell in holes in the ground, much like the American prairie dog does—or did. Doctor Ossendowski says:
"There were thousands of holes here, so that my Mongols had to use all their skill to keep their horses from breaking their legs in them. I noticed an eagle circling high overhead. All of a sudden he dropped like a stone to the top of a marmot's mound, where he sat motionless as a rock. The marmot in a few minutes ran out of his hole to a neighbor's doorway. The eagle calmly jumped down from the top, and with one wing closed the entrance to the hole. The rodent heard the noise, turned back and rushed to the attack, trying to break through to his hole. The eagle fought with one free wing, one leg and his beak, but did not withdraw the bar to the entrance. The marmot jumped at the rapacious bird with great boldness, but soon fell from a blow on the head. Only then the eagle withdrew his wing, approached the marmot, finished him off, and with difficulty, lifted him in his talons to carry him away to the mountains for a tasty luncheon."
She Landed Him.
According to tradition, Marc Antony, while on a fishing party with Cleopatra, had expert divers put large fish on his hook. The original vamp was wise. She had one of her divers place a salt fish on his hook and the episode caused a big laugh at the Egyptian country clubs.
Last summer a youth tried it in the lake on a damsel, who thinks pretty well of her angling ability. But he got tangled in her line. She hooked his clothes and actually brought him to the surface, landed a fish, to speak
They were married soon after. Here's the sad part.
Now she is telling a few select friends she is sorry she didn't throw him back.
Books People Like Best.
According to the circulating department of the Enoch Pratt library, Baltimore, instead of an increase in demand for love stories and poetry in the springtime, as might be supposed, there is a heavy call for books on gardening. Therefore, says Edward Wroth, assistant, the library has got up a list of books for its readers, telling how to grow everything from asters to zinnias and asparagus to sitkwa, the latter a Chinese watermelon particularly luscious for preserving.
We Really Didn't Know.
She—When you asked me to be your wife you deliberately deceived me. He—In what way, Martha?
She—You told me you were well off.
He—Well, I may have said it, Martha, but I didn't know how well off I was at that time.—Richmond Dispatch.
Why He Was Late.
A Chicago boy's teacher asked him why he was so late. "Cause there was a man pinched for stealing hew," he said, "and setting a house on fire and knocking down five policemen, and mother sent me to see if it was pa."

SUPPLEMENT TO THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN
SENDING MOTHER TO CAMP FOR VACATION
Experience of Tennessee Extension Agent in Attracting Women to Summer Club.
(Prepared by the United States Department
The devoted mother who said, "I haven't missed cooking a meal since I was married, so I just don't guess I could come," was exactly the kind of woman the extension agent for women and girls in Wilson county, Tenn., wanted to attract to a three-day women's summer club camp last season. Knowing how much good even a brief change would do each of her club members, this extension agent began to "sell" the idea of a women's camp months before it was time to hold it. Considerable argument was needed to convince most of the mothers and housekeepers that they could be spared from home at all.
Working with the daughters first, the agent began stressing the thought, "Mother needs a rest," among her club girls. The girls, of course, knew that if they could persuade their mothers to go to the camp they themselves would have a very much better chance of being allowed to attend the girls' camp, which came later. For over two months the agent talked about the "camp for women" at every club meeting and wherever she went.
The use of a suitable house with a beautiful, five-acre, level, shaded lawn was obtained. This home was situated eight miles from the county sent and a quarter of a mile from a railway station. At the time the camp was held there was no living room in the house. A commercial light company wired the lawn, so that it was well lighted every night.
About a week before the date decided on for the camp, a letter was sent to every club member in the county, urging her to come. A list stating what it would be necessary to bring was put in the letter, and a program for each hour of the three days at camp. It was felt at this time that the camp would be a success if 25 women came. Over a hundred registered the first day. By rail and by automobile they came, bringing their own food for the picnic dinner and supper, and part of the other food needed. Other club members came later. A report of the way in which camp was run, received by the United States Department of Agriculture, may give women elsewhere ideas on managing a similar "Vacation for Mother."
Each woman registering contributed 25 cents toward the expenses of the camp. The fund thus obtained furnished a hired cook for the second and third days. A representative from each club helped serve at meal time. All the meals except breakfast were served on the lawn. Breakfast, on the large kitchen porch, consisted of toast, butter, eggs, bacon, fruit, preserves and coffee. For dinner the campers had beans, boiled meat, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, corn, vegetables, salad, light bread, corn bread, cake, and ice tea. Corn on the cob, French fried potatoes, vegetable salad, bread and butter and fried chicken were served for supper. The women were so afraid there would not be enough to eat they brought extra chickens, which were used at supper time.
The work of cleaning the house and preparing vegetables for dinner was shared by the club members. Then came a social hour until the day's program began. Talks were given by the state home demonstration agent, the state health specialist, the farm bureau president and the county agent. The rest and play periods were enjoyed by everyone. "It seemed as if all these women were girls again," said the county extension agent. Club singing created great enthusiasm; also a butter-judging contest. Moving pictures and an illustrated lecture helped pass the time pleasantly during the evenings. When the three days were over, the women left with unconcealed regret, voting to make the camp an annual affair. As one woman expressed it, "I feel like I just love every other woman just a little bit better because I know her better." The chance to become better acquainted with so many county neighbors was a real joy to every woman attending.
One of the accomplishments of the camp was the organization of the County Federation of Women's Clubs, which means that the women all over Wilson county will come into closer contact with each other than ever before.

It is true that a competent leader are seeking to cause a breakdown in operation with a view to bringing about Government there remains today among the great majority the fine sense of loyalty and honor towards the characterized their service. That this is part of the is evidenced by the following result in a meeting of the Great Northern Veterans:

That he will be promptly and properly paid, prices rendered,
Justice to the rank and file of earnest and loyal workers in railroad service calls for the correction of an impression created in some quarters by radical leaders that the employees are seeking to destroy the railroads by inefficient and disloyal service. It is true that a comparatively small number of union leaders are seeking to cause a breakdown of the railroads under private operation with a view to bringing about Government ownership. We believe that there remains today among the great majority of railroad workers the same fine sense of loyalty and honor towards the companies that has always characterized their service. That this is particularly true of the Great Northern is evidenced by the following resolutions unanimously adopted at a meeting of the Great Northern Veterans' Association on June 22, 1923:
WHEREAS, from various sources it has been learned that the financial affairs of the railroads in the Northwest are insufficient to sustain a satisfactory financial condition; that much of the difficulty is due to high operating costs on account, among other things, of the present high prices of fuel and other supplies, and the rapid increase of late years in taxation, and
WHEREAS, it is most important to the employee to know that His wages will be fair,
That he will be promptly and properly paid, when due, for services rendered,
That he is secure in his employment,
That his conditions of employment are good, all of which depend upon the financial stability of the railroad, and
WHEREAS, in some quarters there is propaganda which tends toward the Government ownership of railroads to secure which the railroad employees are exhorted to assist in bringing about that result by hampering the management through failure to give a full day's work for a full day's pay, and
WHEREAS, we believe it would be dishonorable and also destructive to the interests of the employee for him to adopt a policy of not giving a full and efficient day's work for a full day's pay.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that we condemn all propaganda designed to bring about any such policy as being dishonorable and destructive and that we trust and believe the Great Northern employees will not permit themselves to be led into such an unworthy and futile course.
FURTHER RESOLVED, that for ourselves we believe it is right and also clearly in our interest to support the management
all of which depend upon the financial stability of the railroad, and
WHEREAS, in some quarters there is propaganda which tends toward the Government ownership of railroads to secure which the railroad employees are exhorted to assist in bringing about that result by hampering the management through failure to give a full day's work for a full day's pay, and
WHEREAS, we believe it would be dishonorable and also destructive to the interests of the employee for him to adopt a policy of not giving a full and efficient day's work for a full day's pay.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that we condemn all propaganda designed to bring about any such policy as being dishonorable and destructive, and that we trust and believe the Great Northern employees will not permit themselves to be led into such an unworthy and futile course.
FURTHER RESOLVED, that for ourselves we believe it is right and also clearly in our interest to support the management in its efforts to provide adequate and prompt service to the public and we pledge ourselves to do our full part in promoting cordial understanding and co-operative spirit in all matters of mutual interest between the Company and its employees.
The spirit of enthusiastic loyalty shown by these Veterans of 25 years or more of service with the Great Northern is the spirit that prevails among its 30,000 employees.

(Continued From Page 1) ground, ferns and baskets of pink and white roses with tall candle-sticks, truly expressive of the occasion's sanctity. Preceding the ceremony Mrs. Ione Poore sweetly sang "I Love You Truly," accompanied by Miss Marienne Jeffrey. The soft strains of the wedding march from "Lohengrin" announced the arrival of the bridal party.
The ushers, Messrs. George Hoage and James Hughes, entered first, attired in the regulation dress suits. Miss Alvai Williams, the only bride's maid, came next, becomingly gowned in Alice blue taffeta with flowing sleeves of georgette falling below the hem line. Her hat was a blue taffeta, trimmed with hand wrought leaves of silver with a crown of silver ribbon. She carried a shower bouquet of pink roses and baby breath tied with burnt orange tulle.
Next came the maid of honor, Miss Louise Coleman, sister of the bride, in a handsome sleeveless creation of peach colored taffeta panelled in silver lace. Her hat was of peach taffeta in perfect harmony with her gown. She carried an arm bouquet of white sweet peas, baby breath and pink roses.
Little Talmadge Carey, nephew of the bride, came next, attired in a black and white sailor suit and bearing the ring in a large pink rose. Little Bobby Coleman, flower girl of the bride, came next in a dainty frock of point desprit trimmed with roses and blue ribbon and carried a basket of pink roses. The bride then entered on the arm of her brother, Mr. John L. Coleman, who gave her away in marriage.
Demure and petite, she was a picture of loveliness in her gown of white Canton crepe fashioned with a side drape, which was caught with an exquisite ornament of pearls. Orange blossoms formed the trimming on the bodice and girdle. A long panel edged with pearls fell from the waist. Her tulle vell in Normandy fashion was held in place with a wreath of orange blossoms. She carried an elaborate shower boquet of Ophelia roses, lilies of the valley and baby breath.
The groom then entered, accompanied by his best man, Burie Carmichael.
Father A. H. Lealtad then read the beautiful Episcopal service which unfted the happy couple.
After the ceremony a reception was held to which over two hundred guests assembled and showered congratulations on the newlyweds.
In the receiving line were Mrs. Talmadge B. Carey, Mrs. Anna Coleman, mother of the bride, who wore a gown of black Bohemian lace over satin and a corsage of lavender sweet peas; Miss Vivian Crawford, sister of the bridegroom, was gowned in periwinkle taffeta. Mr. John Coleman, Miss Alval Williams, Mr. Burie Carmichael, Miss Louise Coleman and the bride and groom.
Immediately after the reception Mr. and Mrs. Crawford left on their honeymoon in the northern part of the state.
The bride's traveling costume was of Biege poiret twill with hat, gloves and slippers to match.
Both the bride and groom are very popular in Minneapolis social circles and they were the recipients of many beautiful and costly presents.
After July 15 they will be at home to their many friends at 1102 East Twenty-eighth street.
H. Schuck Says Business Good
H. Schuck Says Business Good
Hugh Schuck, hustling realty dealer of the firm of Schuck & Schuck, reports that business the past year has been unusually good. Owing to the shortage of available houses to rent, many people are investing their savings in homes as the housing situation is very acute in St. Paul. During the time he has been in business Mr. Schuck has sold many valuable and beautiful homes to members of the race. Mr. Schuck came to St. Paul about thirteen years ago from Topeka, Kan., and is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Schuck, prominent citizens of that city.
For many years he was employed by McBean-Nesbitt Realty firm, with offices in the Commercial Bldg. A number of lots owned by our people in Superior, Wls., were sold by Mr. Schuck, who also purchased five lots in that city.
World War Veteran.
Shortly before the World War he went to Chicago and enlisted in Co. D., 370th Infantry, Old Eight Regiment of Illinois, which was called overseas and saw actual service for eighteen months. During that time he was promoted from corporal to first lieutenant.

he returned to St. Paul and entered business with his brother. Together they opened the Peerless Billiard hall on St. Peter street, with a real estate office in conjunction.
At the expiration of their lease he catered strictly to rental, real estate and the care of property. Mr. Schuck owns a beautiful home and two apartments at 665 University avenue, also holding an option on the adjoining lots. He intends to make some extensive improvements in the near future. Though only a young man, Mr. Schuck is thoroughly progressive, possessing a keen insight in business principles and St. Paul can be proud of Mr. Schuck, who is a 100 per cent race man.
(By the Associated Negro Press)
New York, June 29.—Performers and those interested in the show world have just begun to notice the probable effects of the migration of wage-earning Negroes to Northern industrial centers.
The first noticeable effect has been the diminished patronage in a number of Southern cities. In some few instances theaters have actually been obliged to close. Skipping the closed town has added to the transportation costs of shows and acts, and reduced the route by one or more weeks.
A more pleasing outgrowth of the migration is the promise that is held out for the establishment of theaters in Northern centers of Negro population that has heretofore been too small to be considered by show interests entering to Negro patronage.
Within the past three months several different theatrical groups have set about investigating the possibilities in the towns whose Negro population has been augmented by the migrants. Contrary to the general impression these Negroes are not going entirely to the big cities. Many are going to the smaller towns. Bridgeport and New Haven in Connecticut; Haverstraw, N. Y.; Bethelem, Altoona, Johnstown and Farrell, Pa.; Akron and Youngstown in Ohio; Cary, Ind., are typical of the cities that may in the very near future justify the establishment of a colored theater.
The most natural result will be that it will be possible to find a big new market for Negro talent. These towns will provide the needed jump breakers between the already established theaters in the big Northern cities. All indications point to the organization of a new circuit with Washington and Louisville as the Southernmost cities.
As a substitute for this plan, it may develop that the powers that be in the colored show world may get together and out of the confusion that seems eminent will come two circuits, one comprising the smaller houses, and the other theaters of sufficient size to support dramatic shows, musical comedies and the vaudeville units headed by draw name acts.
Should either of these come to pass, the producers will be encouraged to continue producing for the colored market, for with enough weeks in these houses and the available time in the other theaters that have recently come to look with favor upon Negro talent, assures them of a reasonable run for their shows with a chance to get off the nut.
There is a lot doing among promoters of colored enterprises, but most of the fellows are trying to keep under cover. However, their own letters are scattering the stories of the various efforts that are being made to control the Negro business. We can't predict results, but whatever may happen will help, inasmuch as anything that tends to keep the actors of the race employed is helpful.
The Theater Owners' Booking association is making a number of experiments designed to work out greatly improved programs for the coming season.

Principal Moton is coming in for a big share of the praise for the intelligent and patient manner in which he has conducted himself during the heated controversy between the Negro and anti-Negro forces here and in Alabama where the whole state government's machinery was used to deprive the Negroes of their claim right to name of personnel of the hospital staff.

At a recent dinner to a famous New York publisher, given at the Brevoort, the exclusive French hotel on Fifth avenue, famous writers like Heywood Brown, H. L. Mencken, Theodore Dreiser and Ludwig Lewisohn left their tables to crowd around that of this distinguished black man for the pleasure of his interesting conversation.
Dr. Harrison expects to go to Chicago next week to conduct outdoor forums and to fill lecture engagements at some of the big colored churches, clubs and associations. He intends to be here until the latter part of October, when he must return to New York to begin his work on the board of education's lecture program. He is the author of three well known works: "The Negro and the Nation," "When Africa Awakes" and "Natural Health," and he writes book reviews and literary criticisms for the New York World, the Tribune and the Evening Post and the Nation.
