LIFT TOO State Historical Society BOY SCOUTS ENJOY FINE WEEKS OUTING AT CAMP GIFFORD Scouts Joseph Dorsey and Henry Gor don Are Awarded Coveted Black Dinnmond Honor Which Carries Special Privileges. TROOP 23 PRESENTED FLAG Several Scouts Receive Honors in the Various Tests—Dr. Bruning Presents Troop Flag with Appropriate Remarks. Troop 23, Scoutmaster Dr. Craig Morris, Assistant Scoutmaster Wm. S. Haynes; Troop 7, Scoutmaster T. P. Mahammitt; and Troop 33, Acting Scoutmaster Dr. Craig Morris, spent the week of August 18-25 at Camp Gifford. Dr. Price Terrell acted as Physician. The Court of Honor awarded the following badges: Tenderfoot Badge—Fred Brauns, Tr. 7; Arthur Garner, Tr. 33; Iceous Hilton, Tr. 33; Wilbert Brown, Tr. 33; Nicholas Oliver, Tr. 33. Second Class Badge—Orville Johnson, Tr. 33; Ulysses Watson, Tr. 33. First Class Badge—Dwight Dorsey, Tr. 23; Jesse Hutten, Tr. 23.

Merit Badges, Officials—T. P. Mahammitt, Sr. Tr. 7, personal and public health, first aid. Second Class Scout John Sims, Tr 23, was awarded the efficiency athletic badge scoring 386 out of a possible 400 points. The boys were classified according to weight. The boys were awarded different colored diamonds for personal cleanliness, obedience, cheerfulness, table manners, and stunts on amateur night. Seven boys received all five diamonds. On amateur night entertainment was provided the boys from their talent and it is not possible to describe their acting. On Thursday about 25 parents and friends visited the boys in Camp. Some regret was expressed because of the relatively small number of boys enjoying the privileges and conveniences of the camp. Scouts Joe Dorsey and Henry Gordon, Tr. 23, were awarded the coveted black diamond of the summer camp, which automatically makes them members of the honor society Nani-ba-shu. This is the first time our boys have been so honored. Certain qualifications difficult of fulfillment and certain standards hard to measure up to are the requirements to be so honored. Congratulations to Scouts Gordon and Dorsey. The most impressive ceremony of the whole week was the presentation of a regulation troop American flag and staff to Troop 23. Troop 23 was returning in ideal hiking order from near Nathan's Lake in March accompanied by their scoutmaster, Dr. Craig Morris. While so formed the troop met Dr. E. H. Bruening, Scoutmaster No. 9 during the absence of Morely Young at war, and Dr. J. M. Primes. Dr. Bruening requested that he might supply a troop flag as the troop was minus a regulation flag. Choosing the week of camp as the most opportune and impressive time, Troop 23 stood at attention while Dr. Bruening made a few remarks about the importance of and necessity for scouting and then graciously presented the flag to the troop. Senior Patrol Leader Harry Gordon received the flag while the troop stood at salute. After the pledge to the flag was given rousing cheers were given Dr. Bruening. Troop 23 was so honored for such rapid advance in scouting, as one year ago there were no First Class Scouts. Today Troop 23 has five First Class Scouts, and 29 Merit Badges in the troop. The troop has a standard in character building, in citizenship training and Americanism, that is doing much to place scouting on the plane now held by our scouts, and when the fact is taken into consideration that the troop is now only $1\frac{1}{2}$ years old, due credit must be given the boys, because the officials of Troop 23 have made the boys understand that it is the boys themselves who make the troop, not the officials. THE MONITOR The scouts and officials through the generosity of Mr. S. H. Dorsey, were each presented with a box of candy. The unnamed and unsung hero of the wee kstands out as a tall lanky youth who on Wednesday morning started with two shredded wheats, then consumed sixteen pancakes and two cups of cocoa, and then wanted to know, "when do we eat?" Ahuge watermelon was hid in the woods Tuesday evening and immediately after supper all scouts started to search for it. Joe Dorsey found it and after carrying it just to the place intended for eating it he let it drop and break. But a little grass is easily washed off by a boy when he wants watermelon. ENTERTAINS TEXAS VISITOR Mrs. Wade F. Patton, 2881 Miami street, entertained at a three course breakfast Thursday morning, August 24th, complimentary to Mrs. McCowen of Dallas, Texas. The other guests included Mesdames A. L. Hawkins, W. G. Craig, Freddie Porter, L. Cain, C. E. Duncan, M. Vann, F. Tumbs, H. L. Anderson, M. Perry and Miss Hazel Perry. The table was beautifully set, a large bouquet of roses, carnations and magnolias forming a center piece. RAGE PREJUDICE CAUSES TRAGEDY ON RAILROAD TRAIN White Passenger Strikes Colored Mar in Mouth for Taking Seat Beside Him and Is Killed by Return Blow. SURRENDERS TO THE POLICE Orange, N. J., Sept. 1—Struck full in the mouth by an unknown white "cracker," who objected to his sitting beside him in a coach on the Lackawanna train last Tuesday, Frederick Foster retaliated with a blow over the heart, and as a result another man has paid the supreme penalty for his idea of "democracy." The killing, which precipitated a panic, occurred when a party of five colored men boarded the train at Summit. Foster took a seat with a white man, who objected with a great deal of abusive language. Seeing that he could not force Foster to get up, in a fit of uncontrollable rage, the man hit Foster in the mouth. Before any of the other passengers could interfere, Foster struck his assailant a blow over the heart. He crumpled in his chair and could not be revived. The men stayed on the train until it reached here, when they gave themselves up to th police for questioning. Foster was held, while the other men were released on their own cognizance. MISSIONARY RETURNS The Rev. M. H. Wilkinson, Baptist State Missionary, has returned from a successful visit to Norfolk, Nebr., where the work is flourishing. He will preach at Bethel Baptist church, South Side, Sunday morning. John E. Matzhelinger, a Negro, is the inventor of the first machine which performed automatically all the operations involved in attaching soles to shoes. There are nearly a hundred towns and settlements in the United States populated and governed entirely or almost entirely by Negroes. Negroes have accumulated more than $1,080,000,000 in fifty-three years. The Freedman's Journal was the first Negro newspaper published in the United States. The paper was published in New York in 1827. Many free Negroes held slaves during slavery. More than '8,000 slaves were owned by Negroes. Negro farm laborers and Negro farmers cultivate at least a hundred two and a half millions are in farms owned or rented by Negroes. Since 1870 we have had four colored regiments in the regular army, two of cavalry and two of infantry. For news when it is news, you must read the Monitor.

THE TRUTH WINS FRIENDS White and Colored People Make Rapid Progress Through Co-Operation and Racial Good-Will in Many Places. By Wm. Anthony Aery Norfolk, Va., Sept. 1.—Negroes in business and in all other important lines of economic and social work, including education, public health, community improvement, newspaper and magazine development, law, real estate, and farming, are now willing and anxious to co-operate heartily with one another and with justice-loving white people, and are ready to seek and use the advice of available experts, regardless of race or creed or class, in the solution of their technical problems, according to Dr. Robert Russia Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, who was recently re-elected, by unanimous vote, president of the National Negro Business League at its twenty-third annual meeting which marked the highwater success mark of this creation of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, who developed with masterly skill the largest Negro business enterprise in the world—the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, which now has a budget of $500,000 per annum and commands the respect, sympathy, and good-will of the best citizens of all lands. Address to the Country Address to the Country The League's address to the country, offered through a representative resolutions committee, which was headed by W. T. Andrews of Baltimore, Md., referred to the favorable economic outlook for Negroes, who, though they have suffered some serious business losses, have learned valuable lessons through their own business failures and the failures of other races; noted the steady migration of Negroes toward the North! congratulated the Negro insurance companies on their ample reserves; praised the Negro farmers for their progress in land ownership; endorsed the Muscle Shoals cheap nitrate proposition; called attention to the steady progress of Negro education in the Southern states; especially in furnishing high school facilities and in making college education for Negroes a requirement in teaching; emphatically condemned mob violence and called for the enforcement of existing law, especially the Four- OMAHA, NEBRASKA, SEPTEMBER 1, 1922 teenth, Fifteenth and Eighteenth Amendments to the U. S. Constitution, and for the wiping out of the black and bloody stains of lynchings; and called upon the U. S. Senate to pass the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Tributes to Doctor Moton The League delegates, in addition to taking out a large number of life memberships, subscribed within fifteen minutes over $4600, under the leadership of Dr. Moton, for the current annual expenses of the work of developing a year-round program which will stimulate the work of some 650 local Negro business leagues. Fred R. Moore, editor of "The New York Age," presented to Dr. Moton, on behalf of League members, a handsome, seven-passenger Cadillac touring car as an expression of the goodwill and appreciation of Negro business men and women who gladly cooperate with Dr. Washington's modest and efficient successor. Throughout the session numerous references were made by Negro business leaders from all parts of the Union to the courageous leadership and unfailing service which Dr. Moton has rendered. Especially warm tributes were paid to the re-elected President by Perry W. Howard of Washington, D. C., president of the National Negro Bar Association; Dr. George Cleveland Hall, eminent physician and surgeon of Chicago; Henry Linecoln Johnson of Washington, D. C.; W. Ashby Hawkins of Baltimore, Md.; J. C. Napler of Nashville, Tenn.; and John M. Gandy of Petersburg, Va. White and Colored Speakers White and Colored Speakers Nearly 5000 white and colored citizens of Norfolk and the adjacent territory crowded into the Norfolk Armory to hear Dr. Moton deliver his annual address. The program included, besides opening and closing prayers, and appropriate choral numbers, addresses by Charles E. Ashburner, city manager of Norfolk, who付赎 tribute to the progress of 40,000 Negroes that live in Norfolk; President J. M. Gandy, who declared that Governor Trinkle of Virginia has been eminently just to color people; Lt. Gov. J. E. west of Virginia, who declared that "God intends the Negroes to be a great people," and read Gov. Trinkle's official message of "kindest regards and sincere good wishes"; J. R. Levy of Florence, S. C., who declared that "the time has come when white and colored people are not only willing to reason together, but they also actually talk over their problems face to face and come to a common understanding"; and Bolton Smith of Nashville, 1emn, who spoke vigorously in favor of the passage of the Dyer Bill, on the ground that "a lynching in any state harms friendly race relations in all States." Hon. J. C. Napier, former register of the treasury and former president of the League, presided at the Armory mass meeting. He advocated the organization and conduct of short, essential courses in business for Negroes under the auspices of local Negro business leagues. He recommended the employment of an efficient, wellpaid agent who should devote all of his time to the work of organizing and promoting local Negro business leagues and of putting Negro business men and women in touch with the most helpful sources of aid in developing their business enterprises. He also advocated the establishment by the League of scholarships which would aid promising candidates for the profession of business by sending them to some institution for special business training. Leaders Pull Together Leaders Pull Together All who spoke had a real message. Nobody attempted to talk over the heads of their neighbors or indulged in anything that might be labeled patronizing. A spirit of unity and peace prevailed throughout the meeting. There was not the slightest bit of quibbling. The meetings were well attended. There was throughout the meeting a fine spirit of give-and-take. In good fellowship the business of the meeting was transacted. The sessions were long, but were all interesting. Everybody was on the alert to get information. The speakers were asked searching questions, but there was no heckling. Teamwork, good temper, fellowship, construction, vision, faith, hope, love—these are the terms in which this meeting should be described and evaluated. The place of the 1923 meeting will be announced later by the executive committee, of which C. C. Spaulding is chairman. Invitations were received from Cleveland, Chicago, New Orleans, Hot Springs, Muskogee and Tuskegee. 'LIGHT WINES AND BEER' IS PLATFORM OF OTTO A.

BETHEL METHODIST CHURCH ACQUIRES NEW LOCATION Offshoot of St. John's A. M. E. Church Takes Possesion Next Sunday of Edifice of Evangelical Some months ago former members of St. John's A. M. E. church organized a new congregation under the name of Bethel which has been worshipping in the Taborale Hall at 24th and Parker streets. Recently negotiations were begun to acquire the property on Franklin street west of 24th owned by the Protestant Evangelical denomination, white. Services are to be held at this new location Sunday, conducted by the Rev. Fred Divers, presiding elder. September 4 to 6 a "Mock Conference" will be held each evening at 8 o'clock, admission free, to which the public is invited. Out of every hundred colored citizens called during the war, 36 were certified for service and 64 were rejected, exempted or dischargee; whereas, out of every hundred white called, 25 were certified for service and 75 rejected. RANSOM DENIES RUMOR THAT MME. WALKER HAS SOLD Company Not Sold to Jewish Interests Agents are Told at Recent Successful Baltimore Convention. MRS. LELA WILSON PRESIDES Baltimore, Mr., Sept. 1—Voicing an emphatic denial to the persistent rumors that have been going around for the past few months to the effect that the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Co. had sold out to Jewish interests, had white business managers and white advertising managers, and had been compelled to sell some of its real estate holdings, F. B. Ransome, general manager of the company, declared that these reports had been broadcast by royal manufacturers of toilet articles. Hundreds at Convention Hundreds at Convention The declaration was made here to newspaper men, at the annual gathering of the Madam C. J. Walker hosts, numbering more than 300, held at the Bethel A. M. E. Church. With Mrs. Leila Walker Wilson, daughter of the late Madam Walker, as chairman, the sessions proved the most enthusiastic and instructive ever held. The day sessions of the convention Wednesday and Thursray were closed to the public, but Friday night Mrs. Mary Talbert, winner of the Spingarn Medal for 1921, spoke at St. Mary's Hall. Over $1500 in prizes were awarded different agents. Mrs. Wilson Speaks Mrs. Wilson received a hearty round of applause when she lectured on her recent trip to the Holy Land Wednesday night. A number of other speakers followed her and paid high tribute to her ability to step into the place of Madam Walker and carry on the business.

Hawkins filed charges with the City Commissioners for conduct unbecoming an officer, when he was appealed to for assistance in releasing the physician's car, which charges, as reported in last week's Monitor, were unanimously sustained, was on Tuesday of this week reprimanded and suspended from the police force for thirty days without pay. The vote for this penalty stood 4 to 2. two of the commissioners being in favor of a severer penalty. A CONVERSATION "Oh, isn't that silver chocolate set a beauty! I want one." "Get subscribers for The Monitor and it's yours." "But, can't I buy one? I'll pay you cash for one, right now." "No, thank you, they are not for sale. We give them as premiums." THE FAMOUS BLACK GENERAL OF FRANCE BURIED WITH HONORS Hero of Several Successful Campaigns and Idol of the French Populace Answers Final Roll Call at Advanced Age. GAVE COUNTRY VAST EMPIRE General Alfred Dodds Was Native of Senegal and Member of the French Supreme Council Paris, France, Sept. 1.—Highest military ceremonies were performed here at the funeral of Gen. Alfred Dodds, famous black general, hero of several campaigns, which added vast colonial possessions to France, and idol of the French populace, who died in his 84th year two weeks ago. He had a brilliant and unblemished military career which has firmly fixed his place high in the history of a grateful republic. General Dodds was a native of Senegal, son of a French white colonial officer and a native black woman. He wore the grand Legion of Honor and a military medal which are conferred upon generals who have commanded victorious armies in the field. He was commander-in-chief of the armies that added the great native kingdom of Dahomey and much of the Nigeria region as well as of the trans-Sahara territory, with millions of population, to the huge colonial empire of France in West Africa, where he did most of his campaigning when not fighting under the tricolor in Cochin-China and Tongkking. As a captain of infantry he was one of the heroes of the memorable defense of Bazeilles in the Franco-German War of 1870 and the twice captured, escaped each time under the most sensational circumstances, to resume his place at the front, receiving the officer's cross of the Legion of Honor on the restoration of peace. NIGHT WATCHMAN MITCHELL CAPTURES DARING BURGLAR Special Officer or Night Watchman C. N. Mitchell, who for some years has done good service on North Twenty-fourth street, made an important capture Sunday morning about three o'clock. A man broke a window or the Friedman Bros. Booterie at 1510 North Twenty-fourth street and snatched two pairs of shoes. Mitchell saw him and called to him to halt, but the culprit took to his heels. Shots from the officer failing to halt him, Mitchell's trusty bull dog joined in the chase and the burglar was brought to bay. Mitchell placed him under arrest. He gave his name as James W. Russell. He was tried Tuesday and given six months in the county jail. PROMINENT RACE HORSE MEN HERE FOR AK-SAR-BEN Messrs North and Row of San Diego, Cal., owners of Cofield, Near Penny, Barrissade, and other famous horses, with their manager, Eddie Mark, are in Omaha for the Ak-Sar-Ben races. They have just come from Toledo and other eastern points where the horses of their famous stables captured several purses. The horses owned by these enterprising men of our race are valued at several thousand dollars. Their horses have been entered in the Ak-Sar-Ben races. SOME FACTS YOU OUGHT TO KNOW There are now seventy-two Negro banks in the United States, capitalized at about $2,500,000, and they do an annual business of about $35,000,000. A Negro regiment has for its record 191 days on the firing line, exceeding by five days the term of service at the front of any other American regiment. The first vessel to make the return voyage across the Pacific from the East Indies to Mexico was steered by a Negro pilot in 1565. The first blood for American independence was shed by a Negro—Crispus Attucks, at Boston. The estimated black population of the earth is 458,112,000.

THE ASSOCIATED MILITARY PRIZE MEMBER OF FIRST IN SERVICE MORE SHOULD GRADUATE SCHOOL will be reopening soon. The enrollment in grade and High schools of Omaha, we are advised, will be the largest in the history of the city. Every provision is made by a generous and far-sighted commonwealth for the education of the children of all citizens. Free text books are provided and no pains are spared to give every child excellent opportunities for obtaining adequate schooling. School attendance is compulsory up to a certain age, and parents are held strictly responsible for seeing that their children are in school. There is, therefore, no reason under the sun why any child, no matter how poor his parents may be, should not receive an education. Children of our group are taking advantage of these school privileges, particularly in the lower grades. Our enrollment in the grade schools is most gratifying; but in proportion to our numbers we have too few enrolled in the High schools of the city. Too many children stop at the end of the eighth grade. We ought to have not less than 300 students in Central, South and Technical High schools, whereas we have only about one-third of this number. We ought to have fifteen or twenty High school graduates every year instead of three or four, which is about the average. Last June we had seven, which was a much better showing than hitherto, and shows an improvement which we hope will continue. But the average for several years has not exceeded three. Our boys and girls should be encouraged to go through high school and wherever possible through college; but certainly through high school. Our enrollment in the high school should be large this year and we ought to have year by year an increasing number of graduates. A WORD TO STUDENTS HUNDREDS of our boys and girls will be entering school and college soon. To such of these as we may reach The Monitor would send a word of personal greeting, congratulating them upon the privileges which are theirs of securing an education. Then we would add to this that we are counting on you to make good; to take full advantage of every opportunity at hand to get all out of your course you can. To do this means work, faithful, conscientious, diligent work. We are anxious that you should lead in scholarship and in sports. You can, if you are willing to pay the price, and the price is W-O-R-K. You have every incentive to do your best and to be the best. There are those who doubt your ability for sustained effort. Prove that you have it. And above all show yourself to have a character above reproach. If others are little-minded, show yourself to be large-minded. If tempted to give up, you cannot have the things that your more favored fellow-students have, just put the temptation behind you and stick like glue. That's part of the price you will have to pay. You'll be the richer in the end. And keep the thought constantly before you that you are getting an education that will better equip you for effective work and service during a healthy and active life. Education is to fit us for efficient WORK wherever our lot may be cast. Parents' hopes are in you; they will count whatever sacrifices they may be called upon to make for you joy indeed if you will only do your best not to disappoint them. The future of our people are in the hands of the boys and girls who are students in the various schools today. What will that future be? If a thug holds a citizen up on the street or highway and takes money out of his pocket he is guilty of an inditable offense. If apprehended he pays the penalty of his crime by being sent to prison. There is, however, another kind of thuggery which is not considered as indictable, but upon the INSTITUTION OF THE STATES. Not to Be Abridged. Naturalized in the United States, on thereof, are citizens of the state wherein they reside. No any law which shall abridge the citizens of the United States; nor person of life, liberty, or prop- law, nor deny to any person real protection of the laws. contrary is considered as highly respectable. Those who indulge in it are written down in the annals of a grateful country as statesmen. We refer to that species of thuggy which the present republican congress is guilty of in putting over its present high protective tariff as provided for in the Fordney-McCumber bill which is now before the Senate and will doubtless be passed by that influential body. If there ever was a case of genuine respectable (?) thuggy by which money is to be taken out of the pockets of the people, for the fattening and battening of a favored few, the proposed tariff schedules on wool, sugar and like necessities, not luxuries or necessities, furnish that example. A moderate protective tariff, sufficiently large to cover governmental expenses and protect a few undeveloped industries that need it, is generally admitted to be a necessity, but such an advance in tariff rates on necessities as is about to be saddled on this country is nothing short of robbery. Are the republican party and president under such pre-election pledges and obligations to the trusts which will be the chief beneficiaries of this nigh protective tariff that they are bound to deliver the goods? There are some strange doings at Washington that raise serious questions in the minds of many people, and some of these questionable matters center around this tariff business. As a publication with strong republican leanings The Monitor cannot endorse the republican position on the tariff as proposed in the Fordney-McCumber bill Its passage means the endorsement of legislative thuggy and the down fall of a republican administration which will have betrayed the people Mary One of the many "Joys of Life" with Sam Howe and His Own Co. at the popular Gayety twice daily all next week.

For three years Howe has been in retirement so far as burlesque has been concerned, occasional appearances in vaudeville, with one of his Hebrew character sketches, having marked his public appearances. He has, meanwhile, buried himself with the management of Sam Howe's Show, which has continued, without interruption, as an attraction on the Columbia circuit. There is sure to be a hearty welcome for the droll Hebrew character Howe will again present with his own company. During the many seasons he played in burlesque, Howe established a loyal following and there is sure to be a newly awakened interest in his droll characterization of the Hebrew philosopher who is ever ready to turn any sort of stage situation into a laugh. Helen Tarr has been prima donna for the Sam Howe show during its travels for the past six seasons and she is again designated as the leader of this season's company. Miss Tarr has constantly added to her popularity with patrons of burlesque and her appearances in Sam Howe's support will be not the least entertaining and welcome incident. Vera Desmond is another girl who has won her way to public favor through her talents and personality. "Sam Howe's Joys of Life" comes with the advance promise of elaborate scenic equipment, a large and active chorus of dancers who can also really sing. A fine complement of stage accessories, lighting effects and production novelties are designed to captivate the fancy of the theatregoers. Sunday's matinee (at reduced prices) starts at 3:00. Grand holiday matinee Labor day, ladies' matinee at 2:15 daily thereafter. SIOUX CITY NEWS MRS. J. N. BOYD Is The Monitor's Slonx City correspondent and agent.
