RACE PHYSICIAN IS AWARDED MEDAL FOR BRAVE SERVICE Doctor Springs, of Dewmaine, Illinois Honored For Perilous Work in Mine Explosion at RESCUES SEVERAL MINERS Only One Among Several Physicians Who Would Descend Into Shaft And Attempt Resuscitation of Men Royalton, Ill., March 16.—After a period of over eight years honor has finally come to the hero of the Royalton mine explosion with the receipt by Dr. A. W. Springs, colored physician, of a beautiful gold medal in acknowledgement of the wonderful work he did to bring back to life some of the men who were rescued in a dying condition on October 27, 1914, when fifty-two men were killed in a gas explosion. The medal is the size of a silver dollar and comes from the Dr. Holman Safety Association, which organization awards medals for heroic deeds performed in connection with mine rescue work. There were only a half dozen awarded this last year in the entire United States and Dr. Springs is the happy winner of one of them, together with a diploma that also recites the perilous undertaking. On one side of the medal is engraved, 'Awarded to A. W. Springs, resuscitation, Royalton, Illinois explosion, October 27, 1914.' and on the reverse side is an engraving reading, 'Joseph A. Holmes Safety Association, Medal of Honor.' Dr. Holmes was head of the national bureau of mine safety work and did a great mission to promote safety and rescue work in coal mines. He died some time ago and the association bearing his name is a memorial to his memory. Wins World Fame The heroic work of Dr. Springs is a well known story in the mining field of southern Illinois. There were hundreds of people gathered about the mouth of the shaft after the mine went up in explosion and of the forty or fifty doctors, the colored physician of Dewmaine, armed with a pulmotor, insisted upon going below with the rescue team and taking part in the perilous task of rescuing the dead and dying. There on the bottom he worked his pulmotor bringing to life men who were given up for dead by some of the rescuers. The fame of his work spread all over the nation and he was called by everyone the hero of the disaster. But not until this week did he receive any recognition aside from the usual spoken compliment for his deeds. The doctor is probably the only possessor of such a medal in the state of Illinois, and surely the only owner of one in the southern Illinois coal fields. COLORED WOMEN IN BALTIMORE POLITICS G. O. P. Leaders Cast Off Color Line At Political Banquet Pacific News Bureau Baltimore, Mr., March 16.—For the first time in the history of Baltimore colored women were in attendance at the annual G. O. P. banquet. Headed by Miss Hazel MacBeth, vice-chairman of the 14th ward, a delegation of colored women were seated at tables at the great political banquet held recently in Hazazers Hall. Mayor Broening, "the mayor of Baltimore," was the main speaker. Miss Pearl A. Eader urged the women to vote saying "Women should not call politics a nasty game, sit snugly at home, then complain of unsatisfactory officials whom they have made no effort in helping to choose." Miss Hazel MacBeth, the leader of the colored delegation, is a product of the city schools, a prominent social and political worker, and a member of one of the best known pioneer families of the city. Her brother, Hugh E. MacBeth, formerly editor of a local Negro weekly, is now a resident of Los Angeles, California, and General Counsel of the International Community Welfare League. Mrs. Bertha Harris, mother of two children, is alleged to have shot and killed herself Sunday afternoon because Marvin Brinkley, 1636 North Twenty-first street, said to have been her lover, insisted that he would return to his mother at Dallas, Texas, and would not "break up a home." The Harris home is at 2623 Charles street. Brinkley was held by the police for investigation. The body was taken to the Western Funeral Home. THE MONITOR Supreme Court Decision Bars Hindus To United States, And Places Them With Japanese Pacific News Bureau San Francisco, Cal., March 16 (Special to Monitor)—Considerable relief is felt by the people of the Pacific coast over the recent decision of the United States Supreme court that a Hindu is an ineligible alien, the same as a Japanese, and cannot become a naturalized American citizen upon the grounds that the Hindu is not a member of the white or Caucasian race. Heretofore considered of the Aryan or white race, the supreme court has interpreted the Caucasian clause in the naturalization laws to apply to "free white persons." The words "free white persons" are to be interpreted, the court said, as synonymous with "Caucasian" only so far as that word is popularly understood. "Caucasian" is a conventional word of much flexibility and while it and the words "white persons" are treated as synonymous, they are not of identical meaning. Whatever may be the speculations of the ethnologists as to what races it includes, it does not, the court held, include the body of men to whom the Hindu belongs. Under the new ruling the Hindu comes under the head of the Japanese with whom only crop mortgages are permitted. This ruling is merely another step in the national program to make the United States a "white man's country." No nationality with colored skins regardless of ethnological origin, are to be permitted citizenship within the United States or Canada. Mrs. Agnes Landrum, of 980 North Twenty-fifth Avenue, died in a dentist chair Monday afternoon. Mrs. Landrum, who had been in ill health for the past two or three months, was the patient of Dr. Elmer E. Porter one of the leading physicians of the city. Visiting his office in the Brandeis theatre building Monday with her husband, Dr. Porter advised her to consult a dentist, and made an appointment for her with Dr. J. S. Mellinger, with offices in the same building. Examination disclosed several badly abused teeth, and extraction was recommended. Dr. Porter began to administer an anesthetic, when her heart suddenly stopped beating and she expired. Funeral arrangements have not yet been made. SENATE'S PASSAGE "MAMMY" STATUE BILL OFFENDS MANY Numerous Letters of Protest Prove Unavailing—Measure is Passed As Courtesy to Retiring EDITOR SUGGESTS A BOMB Washington, D. C., March 16 (Special)—“Let the Daughters of the Confederacy erect a monument to the “Black Mammies of the South’ in defiance of our wishes and we will put a bomb under it.” That is the talk that is heard on the street corners of the Capital City since the Senate before adjourning on Sunday passed the bill authorizing the Confederate body to erect a monument in honor of the old slaves who nursed their children. Hundreds of protests from organizations and individuals sent to the members of the Senate were disregarded. One who is familiar with Senate affairs said this week that the bill was passed out of respect to John Sharp Williams (Dem. Miss.) who was on the point of retiring after long service in the Senate. Senator Williams introduced the bill and requested its passage as the last measure he should ever introduce. The Senator has a strong personality and many friends among both parties. The Washington Eagle, more outspoken than many in denunciation of the proposed monument, said editorially, “A single bomb can remove a monument more rapidly than sculptors and builders can erect it. There are more ways of killing a dog than by hanging it.” The Eagle also stated that the very existence of the Daughters of the Confederacy is "treason and smells to heaven . . . Don't forget that you have seen rebel flags flying in Washington, the capital of the federal nation and ornamenting its buildings." "The "Mammy" monument is another subtle move to stamp upon the minds of future generations the lowly station once occupied by people of color." OMAHA, NEBRASKA, FRIDAY, MARCH 16, 1923 From Nebraska to Arkansas and Back Experiences and Observations of the Editor on Trip to Southland Where He Saw Many Things of Interest Nebraska Civil Rights Bill Sec. 1.

C., March 16.—According to a bill which has just passed both houses of the South Carolina legislature, all "faithful Negro slaves are to be pensioned." The bill provides that slaves who served the State and their masters in the Confederate Army during the war shall be granted pensions under virtually the same conditions as those now paid to Confederate veterans. AMERICA GETS $35,000 FROM COTTON CARGO FROM EGYPT Associated Negro Press Boston, Mass., March 16.—The largest cargo of Egyptian cotton ever brought to America arrived here recently from Alexandria, by the steamship Hog Island. It brought 14,380 bales, valued at $3,500,000. This is the eighth cargo of Egyptian cotton to arrive here this season. It presents the unusual situation of England buying Southern cotton and America using cotton from an English possession. It will not affect the domestic market. SOME IMPRESSIONS ON NEARING LITTLE ROCK I have been very much gratified with the many messages of commendation of this series of articles received from readers of The Monitor. Several have told me that they were al anxiety to learn just how my controversy with the Pullman conductor came out. Since learning this I have been the recipient of many messages of warm approval for the manner in which "you stood your ground." One very ardent friend and admirer says, "I take off my hat to you, sir. You are one in a hundred. Ninety-nine men out of every hundred, rather than to run any risk of trouble, would have been bluffed by that conductor. He would have worked his bluff with any of our women and with most any other man. I congratulate you for standing your ground and for the gentlemanly manner in which you handled the situation. Personally, I would have gotten hot and the stuff would have been all off. That's all. Glad it was you." I am not so sure that "any of our women" would have been "bluffed" by the conductor. My impression is that our women are braver in such matters, and probably SAFER, than most of our men. Nor am I willing to believe that my own conduct was so exceptional. I am pleased, however, with the many words of approbation received, and hope that my experience may prove helpful to others should they be placed in similar circumstances. Getting "hot" seldom does any one any good when placed in an adverse situation. Keeping cool is always more advantageous. Do you recall the lines of Kipling which begin "If you can keep your head, while all around you" Others are losing theirs and blaming it on you;?" It concludes with, "You'll be a man, my son." GRANDSON OF FIRST COLORED SENATOR HARVARD GRADUATE Sidney Revels Redmond Ranks High In Scholarship Throughout Career at Famous College CLIPS ONE YEAR OFF COURSE Cambridge, Mass., March 16.—Sidney Revels Redmond, son of Attorney S. D. Redmond of Jackson, Miss., and grandson of Hiram Revels, first Negro United States Senator, who succeeded Jefferson Davis in the Senate, graduated from Harvard at the close of the first semester, February 7th, with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Mr. Redmond completed the four-year course in three, maintaining high rank throughout the course, notwithstanding the large number of studies carried and the fact that about seven aska to Arkans observations of the Editor He Saw Many Things of Several have asked me to tell them of my experiences on my way home, but they will have to wait for this, as I promised to tell you this week, Something About Little Rock. I have so much to tell, and it is nearly all favorable, I am glad to say that I hardly know where to begin. Let's start outside as the "Rainbow Limited" is drawing into the suburbs. Among the many interesting things that first attracted my attention were several spines of fine mules drawing low road wagons moving in the direction of the city. Can you guess who the mule drivers were? You can't miss it. They were our own good-natured, warm-hearted people, happily called by our own George Wells Parker, the "Children of the Sun." The mules looked well fed and so did the men. Some distance off I saw a man plowing with the omni present mule. Instinctively I knew the plowman's race, and there came to my mind an amusing little screed I used to recite when I was a boy. Of course, that was many years ago. I wonder if you have ever heard it. Here's part of it, anyway: "You Nebuchadneezah, whoa, sah; wha' am you tryn' to go, sah? I'd have you for to know, sah, Ise holdin' ob des lines. I do not know what was the name of the mule—in fact there were two, which our bucolic friend was driving; nor do I know whether his experience was the same as that of "Nebuchad-neezah's" driver; but I do know that here was evidence of industry, of honest toll and labor, the patent of true nobility wherever normal man is found. Moreover, as the train drew into the yards I noted that the laborers were almost without exception Negroes. In other words, I noticed ka Civil Rig of the Revised Statutes of Neb hundred fail annually at Harvard to pass or be promoted, and because of his high rank he was exempt from all final examinations. Redmond majored three years in economics and since his graduation is doing post-grad work in literature, history, argumentation and journalism. He plans beginning the study of law next fall. Redmond is twenty years of age. It is quite a coincidence that the names of grandons of both the Negro United States ex-Senators should be connected with Harvard at the same time: viz., the grandson of Revels and Roscoe Conkling Bruce Jr., grandson of the late Senator B. K. Bruce. UNITY CONFERENCE New York, March 16—A pdeliminary conference of all Negro organizations as suggested by Kelly Miller will be held here March 23rd and 24th. The Equal Rights League, N. A. A. C. P., and the African Blood Brotherhood, have issued the call. that the labor that is commonly done in the North and West largely by foreign-born people, like Italians, Lithuanians, Poles, Mexicans, and the like, is done in the South by native born black Americans. Noticing this fact there flashed across my mind two significant statements made in my hearing at different times, one by a radical white Northerner, the other by a white Southerner. The former said in indignation after having read the sickening details of a lynching, "By God, t he black man of the South should declare an economic strike, and refuse to do a tap of work until justice is done him in that section. That and that alone will bring the South to its senses." The other said, gratefully, "We owe a profound debt to the Negro in the South. If it were not for his faithful toil and labor, for he is our chief labor supply, the South would become bankrupt. It he refused to work, our railroads and industries would be paralyzed, our fertile fields would be untilled." There is no question about it, the black American furnishes the labor supply of the South. Contented labor is an indispensable requisite to prosperity in any community. Discontented labor spells economic disaster. Can the South afford to lose its present labor supply? Will not economic necessity compel the South to see to it that its labor is contented? Contentment depends upon justice, fair-play, sanitary housing conditions, educational and recreational opportunities, and fair wages. Will the South be guided by wisdom before it is too late? These were some of the thoughts which like trouping doves came to my mind as the train was drawing near the Union Station at Little Rock the busy capital of Arkansas, one of the richest states in the American Union. On the outskirts of the city I noticed —(Space limit is up; so, continued next week.) HARDING EXPECTED TO AGAIN APPOINT COHEN CUSTOMS COMPTROLLER It Is Report That the President Will Be as Persistent as Roosevelt Was in the Case of Dr. Crum. Washington, D. C., March 16—(The Associated Negro Press.)—The closing days of the U. S. Senate were marked with heated controversy on the confirmation of Walter L. Cohen, of New Orleans, to be Comptroller of Customs. Cohen was appointed last year, but the Senate failed to confirm him. President Harding then appointed him during the recess, and failing of confirmation again, it is currently stated that the President will again appoint Cohen, during the long recess, with the same persistence that President Roosevelt used with reference to the late Dr. Crum. Senators Randsell and Brussard of Louisiana have declared that Cohen is "personally objectionable" to them. This time honored "objection" was used by Senator Watson of Georgia, to defeat the confirmation of Henry Lincoln Johnson for Recorder of Deeds. CALL SENT OUT FOR DOCTORS AND NURSES Positions at U. S. Veterans Hospital Run from $1,680 to $5,500 per Year. Washington, March 16.—The Civil Service Commission announced this week its policy to select colored eligibles where possible for the new two-million-dollar U. S. Veterans Hospital at Tuskegee. Salaries of graduate nurses will vary from $1,680 to $2,500, head nurses and assistants will be needed. Physicians are wanted, and salaries up to $3,250 will be paid; specialists, $5,500. Salaries of dentists will vary between $2,400 and $3,600. Salaries of pharmacists from $1,680 to $2,000. Fifteen doctors and 100 nurses are needed. WOMAN KILLS MAN William Tockerton, 919½ North Twenty-sixth street was shot and killed Sunday afternoon by Mrs. Martha Walker whom it is alleged he attacked with a pen knife in a quarrel that ensued over room rent. Several persons it is said were in the house at the time, and various rumors are affloat as to the real facts in the case. Mrs. Walker was taken into custody. Tockerton's body was taken to the Western Funeral Home. Raleigh, N. C., March 16—President J. I. Peacock has announced a gift of $65,000 for a Science Hall at Shaw University, from the General Board of Education. Brilliant Editor of Crisis Makes Many Friends For Racial Justice By Speeches in Land of Sun- tines And Fluvius NOT RADICAL OR FIREBRAND Los Angeles, Cal., March 16—Dr. W. B. DuBois, publicity head of the N. A. A. C. P., while recently here on a lecturing tour, received a reception far greater than is usual with members of Congress and other distinguished visitors. Columns of space were devoted to his addresses in the white and colored press, and even the Japanese Daily News gave him nearly half a page. To top it off he visited the movie world and posed with Sunshine Sammy and others. Estelle Lawton, former city council member, in reporting Dr. DuBois' address for the Express, said: "The race question is always TNT, and it has been given out by people unfamiliar with the claims of Dr. DuBois that he is a firebrand. Speaks at Trinity "That is a mistake. He spoke at Trinity auditorium Monday night, his subject being, "The Black Man and the Wounded World." The address was a calm, logical eloquent plea for justice for all men, and neither in his public address nor in his conversation with me after it was there aught of bitterness, resentment or untruth; the there was much to cause us of the white race to reflect on the status of our souls and the future of a world run profit mad." Will Comment on Pickens' Views Asked what he thought of Dr. Pickens' "No heaven, no hell, and no resurrection from the dead theory." Dr. DuBois said, "I am too busy telling the people here of the Black Man's future in this world to give an expression now. I will give my opinion concerning Dr. Pickens in a statement later." A delegation led by J. L. Hines, who is a prominent member of the Park Hill Improvement Association, and who has been loudest in demand for separate schools and residential segregation, called upon Governor Sweet Tuesday afternoon in the executive chamber and solicited his aid in getting a resolution through the legislature demanding separate schools for Denver. Mr. Hines, in the course of his statement, and in order to lend emphasis to his argument, referred to the Negro in vile and opprobrious terms so characteristic of some southern white men, and told how the Negro was treated in Mississippi. Gov. Sweet stopped him in the very midst of his tirade, and, looking squarely at him, said: "You go back south of Mason and Dixon's line and handle the school question in any manner you see fit and we of Colorado will handle the question as we see fit. No city in America has a finer class of colored people than are to be found in Denver, and the relations between the races has always been pleasant. I very much doubt," said the Governor, "whether you could get the legislature to consider such a resolution as you are seeking, and I would not sign it if you did. If you will take the pains." Gov. Sweet concluded, "to read the constitution of Colorado, you will find my answer to all such questions as you propose. Earnst Morrison Heads Cast of Juvenile Artists in Pathe Comedies —Co-Starred With Baby Marie Osborne Pacific News Bureau Hollywood, Calif., March 16—Earnest Frederick Morrison, the ten-year old film actor, known to millions the world over as "Sunshine Sammy" has at last coveted the goal of stardom. Young Morrison with his baby sister, Florence (Farina) head the cast of juvenile actors in the series of "Our Gang" comedies made at the Hal Roach studios in Culver City and released to the leading theatres through out the world by Pathe. Born in 1913 Earnest has played in more pictures than any other juvenile actor in the films. From co-starring with Baby Marie Osborne in two and five reel dramas, Earnest has supported in almost weekly releases "Snub Pollard" and Harold Lloyd. His success with these comedians won him the starring position of "Our Gang" comedies, and incidentally a substantial raise in salary, which is said to run into three figures, the highest salary of any Negro film actor. Baltimore, March 16—Mrs. Mandel Katz, of New York, a passenger on a Pullman car, left $8,000 worth of diamonds in a dressing room on a B. & O. train. H. G. Williams, porter of the car, found the jewelry, turned the diamonds into the officials at Mount Royal station, and received $140 reward from Mrs. Katz. SOUTHERNERS GET PLAIN SPEECH FROM COLORADO GOVERNOR Chief Executive Rebukes Delegation Who Seek His Assistance To Put Over Separate School Plan PRAISES COLORED CITIZENS Advises Protesting Mississippiian To Return South of Mason And Dixon's Line—Stands on State Denver, Colo., March 16—Hon. William E. Sweet, Governor of Colorado, came face to face last Tuesday afternoon in his office at the state house, with the color question and the separate school bugaboo that has been the uppermost topic in the minds of the leaders in certain so-called improvement associations that have sprung up in Denver lately and the Governor met it in a manner fitting and becoming the faintest executive of a great sovereign state. JUVENILE NEGRO ACTOR NOW FULL FLEDGED STAR PORTER FINDS JEWELS Fresno, Cal., March 16—Incensed at the refusal of Postmaster G. W. Turner to appoint Patrick J. Young, colored, as mail carrier, a number of the most prominent white citizens of this city have petitioned Senator Samuel Shortridge demanding an investigation of the matter. Richmond, Va.

All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. MEMBER OF FIRST IN SERVICE GOVERNOR Sweet, of Colorado, is the kind of man this country needs in positions of authority and responsibility. Unfortunately, there are individuals in every community who are anxious to restrict the constitutional privileges of American citizens of color. Generally such individuals are from the South. They are not the Southern folk or gentle breeding, but rather of the baser sort, who, coming into northern and western communities, strive to put into practice customs which obtain in the section from which they come. Not only do they attempt to do this but they strive, with some degree of success, to inoculate others with the virus of their narrow sentiments. Denver is one of our western cities in which this class has largely settled. For some months, if not indeed years, this element has striven to restrict the privileges of our people as to civil rights and domicile. Only lately they have been moving for separate schools. Recently, as a news item in our columns shows, a delegation headed by a man named Hines, an arch-agitator of segregation, waited upon Governor Sweet, who, by the way is a democrat, and a gentleman of the first rank, to solicit his support in putting over a school measure. The Mississippi's tirade against our race was cut short by Governor Sweet's rebuke. He told the gentleman that his place was south of Mason and Dixon's line, where he could run schools to suit his views, but that Colorado reserved the right to conduct her schools, according to the constitution of the state upon which he the governor stood, and that if any such resolution as the delegation suggested happened to pass that he would not sign it. He paid a high tribute to the colored citizens of Denver and said that their constitutional rights would be respected. Governor Sweet undoubtedly took the right stand. Colored Americans are asking no special favors anywhere, but simply to be treated as American citizens. We need more officials like Governor Sweet to rebuke narrow minded and prejudiced people who would restrict the privileges of any group of our heterogeneous population upon the ground of either race or religion. A WORD TO PARENTS THE Monitor cannot emphasize too strongly the necessity of parents visiting the schools attended by their children, becoming acquainted with their children's teachers and co-operating with them in every way possible. There is a crying need for this. Moreover, we desire to sound a note of warning to parents, and that is this: Don't be so quick to take your child's word about being imposed upon by his or her teacher. Get the facts first. Consult the teacher. Doubtless, since teachers are human, there will be cases where partiality may be shown and even injustice, but these will be the exception rather than the rule. Children who are studious and behave themselves generally get along well wherever they are. If your children are to receive the best results from the excellent educational advantages offered by this city and state, then there must be co-operation of the home with the school. Unruly children in school are unruly at home. School training cannot take the place of proper training. One must supplement the other. A solemn duty and responsibility rests upon parents who are too ready to shift this responsibility upon the school. THEOLOGY AND LIFE WHY would it not be well for the professing Christians of America to strive to live the theology taught by Christ rather than to spend so much time in discussing their theories about it? "If any man will do My will, he shall know the doctrine." There is serious doubt as to whether man who profess to acknowledge the Master's claim upon their lives have to say great extent honestly striven to do His will. Think it over.

NOT A FIREBRAND THE city editor of the Los Angeles Express pays a well deserved tribute to Dr. DuBois in these words. "The race question is always TNT, and it had been given out by people unfamiliar with the aims of Dr. DuBois that he is firebrand. This is a mistake. . . His address was a calm, logical, eloquent plea for justice to all men, and neither in his public address nor in his conversation with me after it was there aught of bitterness, resentment or untruth; though there was much to cause us of the white race to reflect on the status of our souls and the future of a world run profit mad." DuBois, as all well informed people know, is neither a firebrand nor a dangerous radical. He is not an apologist for un-American and un-democratic practices which are a blot upon this country. He has convictions and expresses them frankly and fearlessly. He fights with all the vigor of his manhood against these traditions and customs, as do those who believe as he does and among our group, altho' Price R Our High Colorado Price Reduced Our High Grade Colorado Lump Coal Rescreened at the Yard $9.50 Per Ton Delivered Consumers Coal & Supply Co.

A better acquaintance with these so-called "fire-brands" and "radicals" will reveal the fact that, all things taken into consideration, they are among the most conservative of men and much more serviceable to the well-being of the country than they who by their silence or acquiescence compromise with falsehood and wrong. THE Washington Eagle makes a serious mistake in suggesting that the proposed "Mammy" Monument can be destroyed by a bomb. Of course it can; but fortunately, our people do not belong to the bomb-throwing crowd and we hope they never will. True, the monument that "Mammy" wants is justice for her children and for this we must continue to fight, but not with bombs. SIOUX CITY NEWS Rev. H. C. Boyd who has been in Washington attending the Negro National Educational Convention, is expected to return home this week. Rev. J. W. Tutt, Pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist church; 6th and Bluff Sts., left Monday evening for Des Moines, Iowa where he will attend the National Baptist Association, and at which time he will hear Dr. Williams, of Chicago, who will preside. Mr. John Tolson of this city and Mrs. Gladys Young of Leavenworth, Kansas, were united in marriage on Saturday, March 10, at six-thirty, in the home of the groom, $212\frac{1}{2}$ 6th St. Mrs. John Tolson and Mrs. Geo. Tolson left Tuesday morning enroute for Leavenworth, Kansas, where they will spend about two weeks in packing the household furnishings of the newly wed. They will then return to this city to make their home. Mrs. F. Thompson, manufacturer of the Cubinola Hair Goods, who is spending the winter in Havana, Cuba, writes that she is having a wonderful stay in that city, and that it is a wonderful place to live. Rev. J. W. Tutt, who was a candidate for a director on the school board at the election held on Monday, March 12, was defeated. Rev. Mr. Tutt is the first Negro to file papers for suc ha position in this city. Only a very small number of votes were cast, about 8,000, to be cast four ways, and if every colored man and woman had voted no doubt Mr. Tutt would have been elected. It is high time the Negroes of this city start thinking. Mrs. Gertrude Jones and her daughter, of Eldora, Iowa, arrived in the city on Monday, March 5 and is visiting in the home of her sister, Mrs. Carrie Roberts. Mrs. Jones expects to make this city her home. The entertainment by Mr. Anderson and his company of young minstrels given at the Lovit Inn on Monday evening, March 12, was more than a success, and it deserved a greater support than it received.

Burekhardt, Pastor The Methodist churches of this city and Council Bluffs turned in out full array to render service at our Quarterly meeting Sunday. P. E. Hicks was at his best in the morning and evening. Rev. E. L. Hollis of the C. M. E. brought a great message at 3:00 P. M. Rev. W. C. Williams, who is conducting a great revival, brought with him, besides his Stewardess and Deaconess, his Evangelist, Rev. John Adams, and Mr. Stephens, who is a wonderful singer, and rendered much service to the occasion. Sunday marked another history making epoch in the life of this church. The ministers that made up our program were Rev. W. C. Williams, St. John A. M. E.; Rev. Fred Divers, Bethel A. M. E.; Rev. Robert Ewing, Omaha Mission; Rev. T. S. Saunders, Grove M. E.; Rev. W. M. Majors, St. Marks, Council Bluffs; Rev. W. Gamble, of You St. Mission M. E. Messrs. P. M. Harris, Rayford and Blake. Allen's Chapel Choirs were at their best. The Seniors gave splendid service at morning and afternoon, and the juniors made everybody feel happy at the evening service. Malissa Carter, with her junior missionary workers, assisted by Deaconess Severe, served a splendid dinner free to all who were hungry. Anna Alston helped to serve. Miss Anna Johnson, 2926 R. St., Mrs. G. Flannigan, 2311 N. 28th St., Dooley are all on the sick list. THE ST. PAUL PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH 26th and Seward Sts. Russel Taylor, Pastor The services Sunday were very helpful to all and everyone went away feeling much benefited and with a new determination to do more for The Kingdom of God. We have given too much concern to the glory t hat is to be ours beyond the grave and not enough concern to those things that make more of heaven here. When Jesus taught his disciples to pray, His first concern was with the coming of God's kingdom,—"Thy Kingdom come." The second thought was of the reign of God in this world, "Thy will be done." The church is the one institution founded by Him for that one purpose. Have we seriously looked at it in that light? We are now to the third of our series for the month of March.—"Judgment Beginning at the House of God." Let all members and friends strive to be present that we may be mutually helpful. Sunday evening the pastor has been invited to address the Ladies' Missionary Society of the Clifton Hill Presbyterian church. The St. Paul Quartet will also render some special music for the occasion. EPISCOPAL CHURCHOF ST. PHIL IP THE DEACON A large congregation was present at the eleven o'clock service Sunday morning, and also at the five o'clock vesper service. Next Sunday morning at the eleven o'clock service the Sacrament of Holy Baptism will be administered. Vespers will be said at five with sermon. Subject: "The Holy Communion." A large class of adults and children who have been under instruction for the past two months will be confirmed Palm Sunday afternoon at five o'clock. heid--Dutfy Pharmacy MINISTERIAL ALLIANCE The attendance at this meeting was not up to the normal, yet the interest was very great. The Rev. W. F. Botts gave a running exposition of the first three chapters of the Book of Revelation which created a very lively and interesting discussion. It was agreed that the condition of the seven churches of Asia was typical of the church in all ages until the end. That the warnings, admonitions, threatenings of the Spirit to these churches are for our profit today if we will only heed them. The same spirit that hated the sins of the Nicolaitans in the churches of Asia Minor, hates the same sins as they exist today. The discussion next Tuesday will be on "The Seven Seals," Rev 4-8, and will be opened by the Rev. W. C. Williams. RESUMES THE UNDERTAKING BUSINESS H. A. Chiles who some years ago was in the undertaking business here with Allen Jones, but subsequently left Omaha, has returned and decided to resume his profession.

Pee coh eee ee proach to Palestine is made, one some how feels that he has begun a sojour among the most Holy of Holies, anc not because of the absence of com pany, for there are many fellow pil grims on the boats and trains thal touch points in the Holy Land. There are merchants and traders too, from the four points of the compass anc still hundreds of others moving about with apparently no thought of the sacred land in which they move. Their lack of appreciation of the unequalled wonders of their native land is com- mon, just as America’s wonders are ‘often passed unnoticed by us, Upon arriving, one is impressed With tho politeness of the customs’ of. ficials whose virtues, by the way, do not include immunity from grafting ‘and petty thievery. A coin placed into the examining officer’s hands is Known to be the trick that facilitates ‘an easy and hasty entrance to the Land Where Christ Lived. Once in, you are known to all who chance to see you as a person of untold wealth. Foreigners, in spite of the thousands who visit there annually, are novel- ties ,and the natives seek to obtain a souvenir from every one they see. Jerusalem, the first point of inter- est I visited in. Palestine, and the largest and most important city, is situated on four hills 2,500 feet above the Mediterranean Sea and surround- ed on three sides by ravines, the fourth side joining one of the hills with the main range of mountains of the country, It is truly the Golden City, as may be seen by the countless golden domes, spires and minarets of a thousand and more churches, mosques and synagogues glittering and dazzling in the sunlight, and the houses of white stone and rough mar- ‘ble silhouetted against the azure sky representing the residence and bus- iness shops of 70,000 Moslems, Jews and Christians. Scores of ill paved crooked, narrow streets mark the paths through the city and lend their bit to the enchantment of the Holy Land. Antedating the birth of Christ, Pal- estine has been hotbed of religious wars, massacres and destruction, an¢ much which allures and draws one there can be said to have resulted from these wars. In more peaceful fimes progress would have crept in and doubtless wiped out the histors that remains. Strange enough to, say, Mohammed. anism is the principal religion of Pal eétine and its hold on the majority o the people is remarkable, and even stranger to say, their principal church; the Mosque Omar, erected in A. D, 691, is the most beautiful struc- tare of jts kind in the world. In Jerusalem there is to be seen the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. which it is, said covers the spot where Jesus Christ’s body was annointed by Nico- demus and which contains the Rock Galvary, a stone with two footprints said to be those of Christ, and the Stone that was rolled away from the mouth of the sepulchre by an angel. ‘Then there is the Russian Excava- tion Church, which encloses the: orig- inal gates, of Jerusalem, the Garden ‘of Gethsemane, the tomb of Mary and the Chapel of the Ascension on the Mount of Olives, containing a rock miarked by tradition as the exact spot where Christ ascended into Heaven; there’ is the tomb of David on Mount Zion and the Chamber of the Lord's Last Supper; the Jew’s Wailing Place, which is against the Wall of Solomon and is where the Jews go-daily to cry and pray for the revelation of the burial place of the Ten Cémmand- ments: ‘The city of Bethlehem, the home of David andthe birthplace of Christ, is, interesting for its Church of the Nativity, erected over’ the. birthplace of Christ, and containing the resting place of the Manger.

MARVELOUS “CHUCKLES” ‘The Successor to Jean Bedini’s Famous “Peek-A-Boo” For Gayety One Short Week The reai event of the season for followers of burlesque is underlined for appearance at the popular Gayety theatre, starting Saturday, March 17, with daily matinee, when Jean Bed- ini's international revue, “Chuckles of 1923” opens its engagement there. “Chuckles” is the production that play- ed the entire summer of 19°2 at the Oxford Music Hall, London, to un- precedented business and so enthused ‘the blase Londoners over American burlesque that Mr. Bedini was com- pelled to return to that country to produce another show, In addition to that, the wonderful success of “Chuck- les” has led to an offer from a prom- inent Australian theatrical magnate for the production to appear in the Antipodes this summer, and present indications point to the offer being accepted. ‘This same production, augmented by ately acquired specialties, appears in your city next week. Heading the cast of unusual funmakers are Cliff Bragdon and “CooCoo” Morrissey, two boys with brand new ideas about comedy. A list of specialty acts that would do credit to any big time vaudeville program are topped by Billy Wells jand the Eclair Twins, an Australian dance act that was imported from the Coliseum, London, by Mr, Bedini, the Sterling Saxe Four with Emmett Bak- er, monarchs of syncopation, the Lon- don Oxford Girls, a complete chorus of English dancing dolls whose terpsi- |chorean ability has amazed American jaudiences, Chuckles Own Jazz Band, with the Eclair Twins, Leo, the huge Nubian lion, George Snyder, a tal- ented straight man, Elaine Bessley, Mab Haworth, Mark Scanlon, Harry Baker, Clem Valerio, Bill Reeves, Al Marshall and all-star chorus. Costumes, scenery and lighting ef- fects are far superior to those em- ployed in the average burlesque at- traction. Scenes of the magnitude of the Wedding scene in “Chuckles” are seldom, if ever, attempted in this branch of the amusement field. It is called “America’s representa. tive burlesque show,” and advance re- ports state that it lives up to its rep- utation. There will be no increase in prices for this engagement. Sunday’s bargain matinee starts at 3:00. Matinee daily at 2:15, starting Monday. THE NEGRO WOMAN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION The Advisory and Directors Board of the N. W. C.
