Unity Club Plan Two Xmas Balls
Unity Club Plan Two Xmas Balls
The Unity club, St. Paul's premier of social events, have taken the whole of Christmas day to celebrate at Union hall. Mr. David Bridgeforth, president of the club, announces that a matinee dance will be given from 2 to 6 on Christmas day and the same club will also feature their annual Christmas ball on the night of December 25 at the same place.
The Unity club is one of the younger social clubs of the Twin Cities, scarcely more than two years old. However, during this brief space, it has so demonstrated its ability that the public has accepted the slogan "Unity Club Means Always a Good Time."
The matinee dance promises to be on par with their Thanksgiving one. While it is expected that the Twin Cities folk will dance their Christmas dinner down at the evening dance.
O. C. HALL RECOVERING FROM SUDDEN ILLNESS
Many rumors were afloat on Friday morning of last week when one of its best known citizens, Mr. Oriri Hall, 732 St. Anthony avenue, clerk in the auditor's office, was suddenly taken ill downtown. Mr. Hall had just finished his lunch and was emerging from a Wabasha street cafe when he fell to the sidewalk. He was rushed to his home, where he spent the remainder of the day.
After a consultation the doctors deemed it advisable to remove him to the Miller hospital to determine the nature of his illness. A specialist pronounced him to be suffering from ulcers of the stomach. At the present time Mr. Hall's condition is very favorable. His many friends will be pleased to know that he is now out of danger.

Young Attorney Wins Jury Case
Attorney O. J. Smith of St. Paul won his first jury case last Monday afternoon before Judge Nye, at the Minneapolis court house. This case was an action for damages sustained to the plaintiff's car last May which occured on Larpenteur avenue, on the St. Paul side. The plaintiff, Theodore Kline, claimed that the defendant was guilty of negligence in causing the accident, while the defendant, George Fedors, claimed that he was fre efrom negligence; that the accident was caused by the contributory negligence of the plaintiff. The plaintiff was represented by Attorney O. J. Smith of St. Paul, the defendant was represented by the firm of Norton & Norton of Minneapolis.
Mr. Smith was called in on the case at the last moment when Attorney for the plaintiff, E. H. Anderson, was compelled to be absent from the city at the time of trial and retained Mr. Smith to prosecute the case. Mr. Smith is one of the youngest attorneys among our group in the Twin Cities, having graduated last June, subsequently opening offices with Attorney W. T. Francis, 329 Metropolitan Bank Bldg., St. Paul.

All civic and race organizations are planning to give the noted contralto a cordial welcome on her St. Paul appearance. Admission to this unusual treat is free.

'Vets' Hospital Again Under Fire
Washington, D. C.—Conditions at the United States Veterans' hospital at Tuskegee Institute are not perfect yet, by any means, according to direct information given here to the Associated Negro Press from both official sources, but there is a serious effort being made to work out the program satisfactorily.
Director Hines, informed A. N. P. that the government is watching closely the state of affairs at the hospital. There have been complaints about the housing of the doctors, and the salaries of the employees of the hospital not being the same as that for similar positions in other hospitals. This matter is being investigated.
It can be stated on the highest authority, on information gathered at the White House, that the Administration favors giving the hospital a fair trial at Tuskegee, and if it is finally found that there can be no permanent and satisfactory adjustment, then the hospital will be moved.

HARRY POTTER
Board of Urban League Holds Its Monthly Meeting
Field Secretary of Western Branch Is in Attendance of Business Session.
The regular monthly meeting of the executive board of the Urban league was held at the St. Paul Association last Friday, the 14th of December. Mr. Carter read his report, which was a resume of his surveys in housing industry and social service. Mr. Carter recommended action by the board to improve conditions which were reported by him as detrimental to the welfare of the race, especially in the housing of the West Side.
Mr. George S. McCleod, president of the board, was in the chair, and Mr. G. W. Hamilton, Attorney, was elected secretary of the board to take the place of Mr. Roy Wilkins, resigned. Mr. T. Arnold Hill, field secretary of the Western Urban league of Chicago, was a visitor.
Last Sunday at the West Side Neighborhood House the Urban league entertained a large and enthusiastic audience of men, women and children in the second concert given for the purpose of interesting the residents of that section in the benefits which can be derived from attendance at this community center. The concert was very pleasing to all those who were present and added stimulation was thereby given to this movement of the Urban league. Mrs. Mae Black Mason was in charge of the entertainment and was ably assisted by Miss Edith Gillard, Miss Mildred Bolden, Miss D. Jordan, Mrs. Margaret Black Turner and Miss Geraldine White.
On December 30 a Christmas party will be given under the auspices of the Urban league. Refreshments will be served to those who attend by the staff of the Neighborhood house, assisted by the Stalwart, a club of young men organized by Mr. E. A. Carter, secretary of the Urban league.

"Peace on earth, good will to every man"
The angel's song that first Christmas eve, began
Two thousand years ago.
Listen how sweetly low.
And yet the Rocks of Ages have echoed the holy strain,
Until today a world joins heaven in chanting the sweet refrain.
"Peace on earth, good will to every man"
A world, war-meary and but late betrayed, can
But with apprehension.

For further carnage The torn flesh, the silent forms, the pain,
Are not forget. It cries, "No! No! Not that, not that again."
"Peace on earth, good will to every man."
Why are men blind to God's redemption plan?
"Good will to man."
"Good Will to Man!"
There lies the panarea for our ills—a rered of right.
And Peace will follow as the glorious day follows the Night.

Phonograph Co. Will Take Care of Your Xmas Wants
Phonograph Co. Will Take Care of Your Xmas Wants
Very Choice Selection of Several Makes Will Satisfy All Music Lovers.
The Linehan Phonograph Co., located at 345 Robert street, will take care of your musical wants in the way of Victrolas and Pianos for Christmas. This concern needs no introduction to the public as they were established five years ago in their old location, 88 East Fifth street.
Since their removal on the 14th of October to 345 Robert street, their business sales have doubled on account of being able to handle every well known phonograph such as Brunswick, Sonora, Cheney, Edison, Nordica, Victrola and Columbia portable machines. Prominent among these makes are the "Nordica," noted for its remarkable tone, and it is the only machine equipped with an old seasoned violin wood resonator. Be sure to step in and hear one—the difference will surprise you.
Pianos. Too.
Besides phonographs, one may select pianos as well. This firm carries the famous Lyon and Healy; Storey and Clark; and Baldwin pianos, all nationally known makes in upright and players.
Baby Grands are here also; just the right size for a bungalow. Every machine and piano is displayed to excellent advantage in the 150 feet of floorage. Three hearing rooms are used where one may select the latest records in Perfect and Puritan records, priced at 59 cents. Mr. E. Linehan, president, takes a personal interest and invites your patronage. Many real values in pianos and Victrolas await your approval.

POSSIBLE BOLT OF RACE VOTERS SEEN BY G.O.P.
National Committee Makes Last Minute-Decision Not to Cut Representation.
POWER OF RACE VOTE IS CAUSE OF DISCUSSION
Press Acknowledges as Formidable Educator in Forcing the Issue.
Much criticism is heard of the last-minute decision of the Republican National committee not to reduce the Southern representation in the National convention. The colored delegates from the South have caused a scandal in conventions from 1904 on, reaching a climax in 1912 when the nomination turned on the Southern contests and there were charges of much money being used on both sides. Finally, in 1920, the National convention instructed the National committee to reduce the representation of the South, where there are few Republican voters. By the action of the committee Wednesday, this reform was beaten, although in effect the committee cut down the importance of the South.
Power Increasing.
The sudden change of plans by the committee is a proof of the increasing power of the colored population politically. One may dismiss as nonsense all the stories that the decision was forced by the Coolidge managers, who expect to control the Southern delegates. This charge springs from the fact that Mr. Coolidge's friends were in the majority and from the further fact that one of Mr. Coolidge's managers is Private Secretary C. Bascom Slemp, who is credited with great influence in the South.
But the truth is that President Coolidge was not consulted about Southern representation. And the action was taken not in the interests of any candidacy at Cleveland but to assure the colored vote in the North to whoever is nominated there. The colored leaders who presented the case for the Southern delegations simply frightened the National committee out of cutting down the Southern delegations.
They pointed that more than 300,000 colored persons had gone North this last year and that this flood of immigration had been going on for several years. The colored people now hold the balance of power normally in many Northern states, especially in Ohio, Indiana, New Jersey and New York. And on close elections they would control in Illinois and Michigan and even in Massachusetts. Roscoe Conkling Simmons, the colored spokesman, pointed out that Senator Lodge owed his election last time to the colored vote. Besides, in the border states, like Maryland, Kentucky and Missouri, the only hope of Republican success lies in the colored vote.
May Go Democratic.
The colored spokesman threatened to influence the Northern colored people to vote the Democratic ticket this (Continued on Page 4)
Valet Shop Sold to Ralph Turner
Mr. Owen Howell has relinquished his interest in the Valet Talloring Company to Mr. Ralph Turner, who has for several years managed the establishment. Mr. Howell has been owner of the Valet Shop for the past twenty-five years. The purchase by Mr. Turner changes ownership of one of the oldest business houses operated by the race in this city. The shop is located at 391 1/2 Robert street, in the heart of the loop district, and enjoys the patronage of many of the business men of that

Entered as second-class matter February 20, 1922, at the postoffice at St. Paul, Minn., under the Act of March 3, 1879.
If there is a time of the year when Man is vested with the feeling of good will, peace and brotherly love toward his fellow man, it is at Christmas time. History, with its changing vicissitudes, has not erased the solemnness of this one period. There may be those incarcerated behind stone walls and iron bars; there are others lying on little white cots and attended by doctors and nurses; there are still others blessed without a care, such as children, again there are some who meet the necessity of life 365 days every year; some filled with hope, some with sorrow. Yet all these variations of human life respond to a singlesentiment—a mysterious feeling, undefinable, invisible, still it reaches into every civilized center of the Christian world and brings hardened criminals, just as it does innocent children, face to face with its reality; holds them spellbound under its charm.
What is this strangeness so old, yet so new? Is it a being or just a thing? It is neither; it is something more infinite; something close to divine. It is a spirit—the Christmas spirit. The Christmas spirit takes one back centuries until, in an imaginary glance, the star of Bethlehem becomes visible; a manger among beasts of the field; three wise men of the east; the flight of Joseph and Mary into Egypt—all these incidents, cherished by mortal for their sacredness, become component parts of the irresistable atmosphere, recognized as the Christmas spirit. Even the very air itself seems to tingle with glory at the spell of the occasion.
Volumes might be written on this one subject. Psychologists may endeavor to analyze the causes and effect and draw separate conclusions. Atheists may deny the birth of a Christ, but commemoration of that sacred morn shall ever be a part of the world's governing force. In spite of the differences of opinion of the learned, based on analytical and technical study, the finding is unanimous that one sentiment is the controlling element at least for one day in each year.
That seemingly invisible, indefinable power captivating all mankind in a common manner, might be concisely called, The Spirit of Christmas. But through further deduction we find that human thought—Peace on Earth and Good Will Toward Man.
With the advent of colder weather comes the cronic pool hall and club harbinger who maintains himself from the dimes solicited from the frequenter, who works, of these places. Not only do these liabilities to civic betterment confine their soliciting to the two mentioned quarters, but are apt to approach any race person on the thoroughfare and after telling a hard luck story end up by asking for the price of a meal. We fully understand that there are deserving people who sometimes are forced to seek assistance before they find employment. Such allowance can be made for. But the man who doesn't want to work and is more satisfied at being a fixed part of the beggars' league, is a community liability that should be dealt with in a severe manner. There are many faults of man that are excusable, but such moral degeneracy as being too lazy to work cannot be excused on any grounds.
We heartily recommend the cleaning out of such persons that cannot prove their right to civic assets in this or any other community. The race suffers more from one unmanly act on the part of undesirables than ten accreditable acts from good citizens. The professional beggar is a liability even to himself. He does not seek to elevate his own position or that of others. No person can be an asset to a community unless he is a contributor to its moral and financial development. That type of person who possessed of health and strength yet is too lazy to earn support for himself, cannot be called a contributor of anything worth while to the community of which he is a part. Not only is the professional beggar a detriment to himself, but to many youths who come in contact with him. It should be an incentive to every young man to strive for better things, but unfortunately some of the examples set forth by the older men are not as they should be for youth to accept. The professional beggar has no place in the affairs of any city. He contributes nothing to better affairs. He is a parasite and undeserving of assistance. Steps should be taken to rid every community of undesirables. We hope that with the clean-up now underway will relieve us of some of the prevalent professional beggars.

DEFECTIVE FURNACE IS CAUSE OF SERIOUS FIRE
During the absence of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Gough, 790 St. Anthony avenue, on Thursday evening a defective furnace caused serious damage. The fire had evidently smouldered for a considerable length of time before it was discovered. However, the firemen were able to get it under control and saved the structure, which is a duplex, Mr. and Mrs. Gough residing in the lower one. Most of the damage was caused by smoke. Mr. and Mrs. Gough are now living with Mr. and Mrs. Stepp, 782 St. Anthony avenue, until repairs are completed in their home.

CURIOUS MORGUE KEPT BY THE U. S.
Heirlooms and Treasures of Americans Who Die Abroad Held in Government Vaults.
Washington.—Supplementary to his multitudinous other activities, our resplendent Uncle Samuel maintains an extraordinary undertaking establishment down in the neighborhood of Eighteenth and E streets—a curious morgue of dead men's shoes where the personal effects of American citizens and soldiers who die abroad are stored in safety vaults pending the appearance of the bethes and claimants of these trinkets, keepsakes, jewelry, treasures and—whatnot.
Thousands and thousands of carefully sealed parcels, ranging in size from a little package inclosed in a stout manila envelope—legal size paper—to containers larger than the biggest shoe box are being held in this novel port of unclaimed legacies.
If these mute, inconspicuous parcels could but talk, what tales they could narrate—stories of battlefield bravery and conquest, accounts of American adventurers and explorers who dared unknown perils to add to our scientific or practical knowledge, intimate stories of the human triangle and its variegated issues, experience stories such as never were written in novel, magazine or newspaper.
The origin of these articles, which belong to missing "next of kin" is anywhere on the world map. From the scorching sands of the Sahara, from the forest fastnesses of the Congo, from the mines of Siberia, from the skylands of the Ala, from trading posts on little islands of the Seven seas where venturesome Americans journey and die, their personal effects are returned to Washington to be held by the Treasury department until the relatives can be found who are the rightful heirs of the property.
When an American citizen passes away on foreign soil, the American consul in the nearest district is notified. Immediately he takes charge of the personal effects of the deceased. If there are relatives at hand, the official transfers the articles to their keeping. If the man has no close relatives in that latitude, the consul communicates with the secretary of state in Washington, advising of the death and either giving the address of American relatives to be notified or else requesting that the State department locate the lawful heirs of the dead man.
Ordinarily the American consul selects two local merchants who aid him in inventorying the estate. All the outstanding debts are paid and moneys due him are collected and credited to his estate.
Thousands Die Abroad.
The American consul is allowed a modest fee of 1 or 2 per cent of the value of the estate for his services. The duties which the consular service have to cover annually in these fields are extensive and widespread, as the last reports of the State department show that between 3,000 and 4,000 American citizens die each year while visiting, traveling through or living in foreign countries. After the consul has converted the estate of the dead man into cash—unless legal claimants appear as legitimate heirs—he forwards the funds and personal trinkets to the treasurer of the United States. The consul has supervision over only the personal property of the deceased citizen—all the real property is governed by the local laws of the foreign land.
In the case of an American citizen who dies on the high seas, aboard a United States or foreign ship, the United States consul at the port where the ship next docks takes charge of his effects unless he is accompanied by relatives. In case the consular officers can find no evidence to show the identity of the deceased man's relatives and their whereabouts, they cable the State department at Washington to advertise in the American newspapers the news of the death. Postmasters and police officials in different parts of the United States are queried if the estate is large, and every effort is made to locate the rightful heirs.
Articles Held Indefinitely.
The American consul holds the keepsakes and effects of decedent Americans for one year, during which search is made by Uncle Sam in all parts of the United States for the missing or unidentified relatives. If the heirs cannot be found the effects are sent to the Treasury or State department in Washington. There they are audited, sealed and sent to the depository lockers in the civil division of the diplomatic and consular service, where they are held indefinitely until claimed.
All the cash funds from these extraordinary estates are turned into the treasury of the United States, where they are credited to the relatives of the dead Americans under the decedent trust fund, a federal financial account which now amounts to many hundreds of thousands of dollars. If ever afterward any legal claimant or relative of the dead man appears, the money is turned over to such person when he establishes his identity and relationship to the satisfaction of Uncle Sam's banking representatives.
The sealed parcels containing the trinkets and keepsakes have to be held indefinitely by the State department until either congress by special act authorizes their sale or the missing legatees appear. The last sale of these curious and unknown treasures, on hand for two years or longer, was held
in 1911 by special confirmation of the national legislators. Pens, photographs, rings, watches, pistols, wishing rings, curious charms, lucky pocket pieces, foreign coins, medals, trophies and many other trinkets and keepsakes were sold on that occasion, the proceeds of the novel auction amounting to $750. Since that time the dead men's shoes have been accumulating in the State department storerooms.
Keepakes of Dead Heroes.
If an American soldier or Navy department sailor dies on foreign soil or water, the military and naval authorities supervise the settlement of his estate and the disposition of his personal effects. In the general accounting offices in Washington there is a special tomb room, a vault where the jewelry and trinkets, treasured photographs, Bibles, love letters, fountain pens, gold pencils, rings, watches, stickpins, cuff buttons, charms and curios of deceased soldiers are held in storage awaiting the arrival of relatives to take charge of the property. Five large steel lockers are full of approximately 1,000 sealed and indexed parcels, envelopes and packages containing the personal effects of Civil war soldiers who served in the Union army. These federal fighters either were killed on the field of battle or died in camps or hospitals. Their missing heirs have never claimed the personal possessions. Uncle Sam has held them in his safekeeping now for about sixty years. Unless congress authorizes their sale, the War department authorities will have to continue to act as their guardians.
In this same morgue of dead men's heirlooms and treasures are eight additional strongboxes of steel crammed to capacity with other parcels, the effects of soldiers of the Spanish-American or World war who died in the national service and whose relatives have never come forward to claim their keepsakes. Approximately 3,500 of these unclaimed estates rest in Uncle Sam's keeping because the kith and kin of the deceased boys in khaki have not advised the War department of their whereabouts.
What tales of courage and sacrifice these keepsakes could tell. Many of them were removed from the bodies of soldiers who were killed on the battlefield. With reverence and respect, the writer examined the contents of several of these packages which had been opened officially. One contained a dozen or more bloodstained, rusted coins, mostly French money, and a fountain pen with which, perhaps, the soldier lad had written to his sweetheart only the day before the battle in which he lost his life. In another envelope was a shattered watch of gold. It looked as if it had been wrecked by a bit of shrapnel or a vagrant bullet. It was blotted and splotched with stains. It was owned by an American soldier killed in France June 18, 1918.
These prized possessions of some of our bravest American soldiers are resting almost forgotten in storage when they should be treasured keepsakes of the relatives of the soldier boys who gave all that posterity might live and prosper. Uncle Sam has exhausted his resources in trying to find the heirs of these relics, which have been rescued from dozens of different battlefields. It would be better to bury these trinkets in some special national tomb with official ceremonies or to distribute them over the country for display in public museums, rather than to ever offer them for public sale, if they are not claimed.
75,300 Persons Killed
Buffalo.-Accidents in the United States during 1922 exacted a toll of approximately 75,800 human lives, an increase of nearly 2,000 over the estimated number for the previous year, the committee on public accident statistics of the National Safety council declared in its report before the public safety section of the National Safety congress. Although there has been a somewhat halting decline in the accidental death rate for the past ten or twelve years, the actual number of fatal accidents has never been less than 70,000 each year, the report said, adding that the slight downward trend has been more than offset by the natural increase in population.
The report credited the automobile with the largest entry in the annual accident mortality budget—14,000 for 1922, 18 per cent of all fatal accidents for that year. The committee estimated that during each day in 1922, 206 American citizens were killed by accident. Of this daily number, 38 were automobile fatalities. Accident falls ranked close second with 35. Drowning and burns totaled 19 and 16 respectively.
In 109 cities throughout the United States in 1922, there were 11.4 deaths per 10,000 cars registered and 12.8 per 100,000 population, the report said.
Sea Monster Caught on Hook and Line
Hampton, Va.—Probably the most remarkable deep-sea creature ever landed in this section was caught recently by hook and line off Ocean View.
The creature has a body like a flounder and wings that measured an even six feet from tip to tip. It has a head like a hog, with a sharp, long bone protruding from the snout and a whip-like tail that measured 65 inches from the body to its tip. At the end of the tail two bony horns extend from each side.
The body is 11 inches thick.

79. What was the "Legal Rights Association?"
"The Legal Rights Association" was a society formed for the purpose of ascertaining the legal status of the colored man in the United States. It was organized in the city of Baltimore, Md., about 1832, by Hezekiah Grice, and was entirely composed of colored men.
80. What nation halted Cambyses and his Persian hordes attempt to dominate the world in 524 B. C.?
In 524 B. C. Cambyses, son of the great Cyrus, seeking to complete the world conquest of his father, overran Egypt with his vast army, and proceeded to sweep down on Ethiopia; but he found the Ethiopian equal to the Egyptian in refinement and intelligence, and superior in military skill. His attempts, by means of spies and various other designs proving unsuccessful, he sought to give drawn battle, and was terribly defeated at the oasis of Ammon in the Libyan desert.
81. Where and what is Liberia?
Liberia is a Negro republic of Western Africa, on the upper coast of Upper Guinea. It was founded by the American Colonization Company. The first expedition of 86 emigrants was sent out in February, 1820. The suffering that slavery brought upon the Negro aroused his friends and following the plan of Wilberforce and other Englishmen, Liberia was founded as a refuge for the colored men who would avail themselves of its blessings.

Give Musical Gifts This Christmas
A fortnight ago the fight for restoration of the delegate strength of Southern States in Republican national conventions seemed hopelessly lost. Today it has been gloriously won, and the truth of this saying proved. For once in the political history of the race, Negroes presented a solid phalanx and made common cause. In the protests against the un-American action, which the national committee had taken in June, 1921, sectionalism was forgot. Factions were merged under the banner of the Lincoln league and a glorious chapter in the political history of colored Republicans was written.
There they stood advocates for themselves and for their cause. There was no North nor South, East nor West; but colored Republicans from the North and from the South, colored Republicans from the East and from the West stood shoulder to shoulder and fought unselfishly for the rights of each other, for justice and a square deal.
They were given their day in court. And when the first concentrated attack had been made against the seeming approval by the Republican party of the disfranchising laws written by the Democratic party into the statute books, the sub-committee was perplexed. On the following day, when the spokesmen of the delegations present appeared before the national committee and pleaded in a most dignified and impressive manner, white women shed tears and fair-minded men said that their cause was just.
It is a great victory for colored Republicans for they have not only gained what they sought, but have learned through experience that in union there is strength. And the eyes of the responsible leaders of the Republican party in the nation have been opened by the colored Republicans who appeared before them. Verily, "united we stand, divided we fall."
