CASE OF PEONAGE FOUND TO EXIST IN BUFFALO, N. Y.
Buffalo, N. Y., Dec. 23.—The citizens of Bufallo have been shaken by the uncovering of a crime here, which has been hidden for 18 years. One of Buffalo's white attorneys went south and brought back a little colored girl, six years old. She has lived in his family ever since.
But that was 18 years ago. Last week a 24-year-old colored woman, none other than this former little girl, ran away from her master, for it has developed that she has been the servant of that family all these been inside of a church or even spoken to a colored person. She has been doing all of the work of the family of nine adults—washing, ironing, scrubbing, cooking, cleaning—without pay.
When this child was 14 years old she was criminally assaulted by "some" white man, gave birth to a child in the Buffalo poor house, but as soon as she was able was taken back to the home of her "slave master", and here she stayed until last week. Her "master" has invoked aid of the chief of police to get back his "slave."
At the Christian Culture Congress of which Mrs. Mary B. Talbert is president, strong addresses were made and a contribution was taken up to give this girl. Mr. Cornellus Ford, one of Buffalo's prominent citizens has done the detective work and it is reported that the Douglass club Phyllis Wheatley and Culture congress will go to the courts in behalf of the girl, and try to secure not only her wages for these enforced years, but hope to make this lawyer suffer the full penalty of the law, according to the amendments to the constitution.
MOREHOUSE ELEVEN UNDISPUTABLY THE BEST IN SOUTH
MOREHOUSE ELEVEN UNDISPUTABLY THE BEST IN SOUTH
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 23.—Among the strong "grid" teams of the 1920 football colleges, Morehouse college has figured conspicuously. Fighting from beginning to end of every one of its six scheduled games, the plucky little Atlanta college undisputably won the championship of the South and proved itself to be stronger than most of the colored colleges of the east.
Paine college of Augusta, Ga., was not to withstand the serial attack of the Morehouse "Tigers" eleven and fell a victim to the count, 21-0. The Augusta aggregation, however, held the Atlantans to a scoreless tie in the first half.
Morris Brown college was unable to do more than prevent Morehouse from piling up a score larger than 21-0.
For the third game of the season the much-heralded Fisk eleven journeyed to Atlanta and, after a valiantly fought battle, went home with the short end of a 24-13 score. The Tennesseeans could not withstand the withering, wearing attack of the Morehouse forwards.
Virginia Union University of Richmond, Va., was the only team capable of registering a victory over the "Tigers"—much scarred after their battlewith Fisk, the captain, both ends, and a halfback nursing injuries on the side-lines. The Richmond team, however, hung a 7-0 defeat on Morehouse after three scoreless periods.
Morehouse was at least four touchdowns better than her arch rivals, Atlanta university. The score, 24-14, does not show how decisively Morehouse proved herself the victor.
Chicago, Dec. 23.—T. W. Bell of Leavenworth, Kansas, the attorney of the convicted Negro soldiers in the Leavenworth prison for participation in the Houston riots a few years since, is in Chicago. Mr. Bell is making a nation-wide appeal to the Colored people to take a hand in the proceedings looking to the pardon and release from prison of the convicted soldiers. He is meeting
Merriest of Holidays
Taking it all in all, it may be safely asserted that Christmas is the merriest and the best of all holidays, and one which is likely to be observed for ages yet to come. Nations may rise and fall, new beliefs and religions may sweep away the old, but that would seem, indeed, a dreary and empty year which brought no merry Christmas in its annual round. May old Father Time long spare his holiday to mankind to gladden the hearts of all with its coming, and may each Christmas be still merrier than the last.
MAN SHOT 6 TIMES BY POLICE OFFICERS CONTINUES HIS FIGHT
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Baltimore, Md., Dec. 23.—Although he was shot six times in four days while resisting arrest on two occasions, the spirit of Climon Murrell is not broken, and physicists at South Baltimore General hospital, where he is being treated, say he will recover. When Justice Rotee and Lieutenant Strott went to the hospital today to receive Murrell's dying statement, they found him in a surly and insubordinate mood.
Murrell was shot three times in the chest by Patrolman Crone during a battle in a pawn shop, in which he nearly chewed off the policeman's finger. He was shot three times more in the abdomen by Patrolman Stapleton after he had taken away the policeman's blackjack and had struck him over the head with it several times.

MEMORIAL BUILDING TO COLORED HEROES WILL BE ERECTED
(By the Associated Neggo Press.)
Washington,D. C., Dec. 24.—A delegation of colored men appointed by the governors of the various states conferred on Thursday, Dec. 9th, with Representative L. C. Dyer, of Missouri, author of the bill providing for the erection of a memorial building in Washington, in honor of the Negro soldiers and sailors who participated in all the wars of the country.

ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER
PHOENIX. ARIZONA. SATURDAY. DECEMBER 25. 1920.
PROPER FINANCIAL AID NOW ASSURED NEGRO BUSINESS
(Special to The Tribune)
Washington, D. C., Dec. 23.—Statements made by prominent business men at the conference in Chicago called by the American Bankers' association with a view to organizing a hundred million dollar ($100,000,000) corporation to finance foreign trade and build up American export trade prove of great interest in connection with the movement which has been started by a group of Negro bankers and business men to organize a three million dollar ($3,000,000) industrial finance corporation. Just as the American Bankers' association in the organization of this gigantic corporation is seeking to build up American export trade, in the same way the Allied Bankers' and Industrial corporation will seek to build up Negro business in America. The Washington Post speaks editorially of the big movement to stabilize foreign trade and also mentions the significant fact that the stock of a six million dollar ($6,000,000) southern finance corporation recently organized to finance exports from the south has been over-subscribed. This corporation is an answer to the need of supplying foreign markets for southern products. The Allied Bankers' and Industrial corporation has an aim of equal importance to Negro business. It is the answer to the gerat need of assuring proper financial aid to Negro business generally.

MURIBUS UNUMAT
WORK and SUGCEED
So you want to succeed? Well, I'll tell you the way—
There are things you must do and a price you must pay,
There is much to be done and there's much to be borne
Ere the mantle of glory may truly be worn.
First you must catch the broad vision and see
How great in your hands may your task come to be;
The humbleest of duties soon looms very large
Whenever a great mind shall take it in charge.
If you really are eager to climb to success
You must give your task everything you possess;
No "just good enough" will bring honor to you,
Success demands always the best you can do.
You must carry your burden with never a whine
Nor grumble whenever your sun fails to shine!
There is grief to be suffered and heartache to meet.
And you must learn how to accept a defeat.
Success is the goddess of merit alone;
By no other way can its glory be known;
You must work for it, strive for it,
dream on and plan,
And truly deserve it by being a man.
POISONED NEPHEW TO COLLECT $10,000 INSURANCE CHARGED
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Macon, Ga., Dec. 24.—Following the disinterment at Vienna, Dooly county, of the body of Henry Mitchell, a former soldier, who died on December 31, 1919, Dr. M. Clarence Mitchell of this city, and uncle of the deceased, was arrested on a charge of murder. The investigation, which resulted in the arrest of the physician was directed by federal investigators from the bureau of war risk insurance. The state charges that the physician poisoned his nephew to obtain $10,000.00 government insurance and $14,000.00 in private companies.
Mitchell was convicted last week in Macon county' court on a charge of having forged the name of a white physician to a policy issued on his nephew's death. He was at liberty on $5000 ball. The viscera of the dead man has been sent to a chemist in Atlanta for examination.

TRIBUNE
COLORED PATROLMAN OF CHICAGO ALONE NABS THREE BANDITS
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Chicago, Ill., Dec. 23.—Detective Sergeant Sidney Williams is now numbered among the heroes of the local police department. Stunned by a blow on the head by a blackjack in the hands of a desperate criminal, Williams overcame three hold-up Negro bandits last Friday night, killing one and assisting in the capture of the two companions of the slain bandit.
The affray was started in a restaurant at 2842 South Dearborn street, in the heart of one of the "dark" sections of the south side. Williams entered the place and recognizing the three bandits as members of a desperate gang of pickpockets and automobile landets who have been making life miserable for southsiders in general during the past few weeks, he began searching the men for concealed weapons when he was struck on the head with a blackjack by one of the men.
In a fight which followed, William Holland, who appeared to be the leader of the gang, was shot and killed by Officer Williams. After a desperate struggle in the course of which the restaurant was wrecked, the men were overpowered and placed under arrest.
Williams, who is a Negro, has come in for much praise from citizens and public alike. Holland, the man killed, is known to have been the leader of a "black and tan" gang of thieves and burglars who have been terrorizing certain sections in the city by their daring depredations. The police have been tailed in their endeavors to apprehend the men. Williams was one of a special detail placed on their trail. He had received information which pointed to Holland and the men who were with him at the time the brave officer entered the aforesaid restaurant.
Charges have been filed against the proprietor of the resturant that declare the place is a resort for criminals. The police say that they will cause the closing of the place. In the meantime Officer Williams has put himself in line for early promotion.
GEORGIA GRAND JURY ORDERED TO PROBE CORRUPT CONDITIONS
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Albany, Ga., Dec. 23.—Judge John R. Wilson of the Dougherty County superior court ordered the grand jury to investigate the recent reign of lawlessness in the eastern part of the country, where many Negro families have been driven from their homes and some individuals have been whipped.
Besides convening the grand jury to make a thorough investigation, Judge Wilson instructed Sheriff Tarver to summon as many deputies as might be needed to police the district so as to afford protection to the residents, white and black. He said he proposed to make it entirely safe for Negroes to return to their homes and to remain. The action of Judge Wilson is being commended.
RELIGIOUS CRANK IN OLD NEW YORK CAUSES EXCITEMENT
RELIGIOUS CRANK IN OLD NEW YORK CAUSES EXCITEMENT
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
New York, N. Y., Dec. 24.—Wearing a crown of brass with tinsel trimmings, Paul Bishop, a Negro, caused no little excitement in the Harlem district Friday afternoon. Bishop was discovered shouting excitedly in west 134th street declaring that he had been appointed by God a king to redeem the world from sn and wickedness. He was arrested by Officer William Boyden and later sent to the observation ward for insane at Bellevue hospital.
Christmas of Ancients
To present-day folk December 25th is synonymous with Christmas, but not always was the celebration observed on that day. Among the early Christians, says history, Christmas was celebrated by some groups in May, by others in April, and still others in June. The explanation offered for the avoidance of December is that this was the rainy season in Judea, when shepherds did not ordinarily "watch their flocks by night" on the plains.
Though Christmas is said to have been observed as early as the year 98, as a festival of the Christian church, certain traces or its observance are not found until the reign of the Emperor Commodus, between 138 and 161.
By the fifth century December 25 was the day generally observed as Christmas. It is not known whether this change was made on account of some ancient tradition, or because the church wished to supplant certain heathen festivals which had been customarily held at this season of the year.
The next event chronicled in the history of Christmas is its abolishment by the Puritans, with the accompanying declaration that the decoration of churches and houses was a seditious act.
EX-SLAVE LEAVES AN ESTATE VALUED MORE THAN $50,000

On another occasion he cut off a soldier's arm and then failed to take measures to prevent the soldier from bleeding to death.
Doctor Gebhard now is in a Berlin sanatorium.

HIGH HONOR GIVEN DR. WALTER THOMAS BY MASONIC BODY
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Chicago, Dec. 23.—The most worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Illinois and jurisdiction presided over by the Right Worshipful Grand Master Thomas H. Samuels, highly honored Dr. Walter N. Thomas, 33rd degree, at their last annual communication by conferring on him the title and privileges of a Past Master.
Such distinctions are usually conferred on members for meritorious service of 'great' distinction by Scottish Rite Masons. It was conferred on George Washington and Thomas Duncklery of Scotland by subordinate and grand lodges in their time. Dr. Thomas presented to Prince Hall Lodge a precious memento from the grave of our ancestor and first Grand Master, Prince Hall, of Boston, the founder and father of all legitimate Masonry among Negroes of America. Dr. Thomas was a member of Exemption Board No. 2 of Chicago during the recent conflict of the United States in the World War, also served with the Eight Illinois Infantry on the borders of Texas and Mexico in 1916.
Dr. Thomas will hold the distinction of being the first on record, of Color, to have received this honor.

(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Hampton, Va., Dec. 23.—St. Paulp's church of New York, a Colored Episcopal church which recently celebrated the one hundredth anniversary of its incorporation as a parish, has given to Hampton Institute money for a prize, which will be awarded next spring to the member of the senior class who has the highest scholarship record.
Dr. James E. Greeg, principal of Hampton Institute, made this public announcement at the time of the recent visit of Reverend Dr. Hutchins C. Bishop, rector of St. Philip's church, who spoke on "The Right Kind of Leadership." Dr. Bishop said:
"Any group of people must look for leadership to men of outstanding ability—men not only of intellectual acquirementsbut men, also, versed in secular affairs—men of capacity for doing things that need to be done.
I suppose there never was a time in the history of the world when men of this type were so much needed as they are today.
WHITE SUPREMACY CHALLENGED SAYS SOUTHERN ATTY.
Chattanooga, Tenn., Dec. 22.—At the democratic conference in Nashville, Attorney General Cham was one of the speakers. The Tennessee, in reporting his remarks, published the following:
"Attorney General Geo. W. Chamlee of Hamilton, spoke as a high private in the rear rank and pledged the support of the men and women democrats of the Third district to the end that the republicans be driven from power. He was vigorous in his denunciation of the republicans and alleged mobilization of Negroes in Hamilton and in Chattanooga, and charged that the defeat of Congressman Moon was due to the heavy Negro vote. "The 'blackbird district' destroyed Moon", was the way he phrased it. Characterizing the Republican victory in the state and the Third district as a direct challenge to white supremacy in the South, Mr. Chamlee intimated that the legislators might take it upon themselves to 'tighten up' the election laws so as to prevent a repetition of practices complained of."
Nobody has much respect for constantly tooted authority any more.

CHRISTMAS.
“Christmas comes but once each year and when it comes it brings good
cheer,” is an oft-repeated saying; still there are many who do not grasp
‘the ful significance of these words. There is a proviso attached to the
statement that Christmas brings good cheer and this has been overlooked
by many. You also have heard it said that “Everything comies to him who
waits,” but did you complete the sentence by adding: “provided, he works
while he waits?” Well, the saying that good cheer is brought by the
coming of Christmas, needs words similar to these to make the statement
true.
‘Po all who have labored incessantly during the past 12 months, prac:
ticed thrift and economy and by so doing have laid aside a competence,
Christmas is full of meaning to them. They are in a position to enjoy
the good cheer that Christmas brings and to assist in spreading it to
others by the noble act of giving.
You have read how it is more blessed to give than receive, and that
means the person who is really able to give is happier than the one
who is unable to do likewise, but must be the recipient of gifts from those
more fortunate, If you would like to experience and enjoy the real Christ-
mas spirit—which is the spirit of giving—begin now to practice rigid econo-
my, stick to your job, save systematically and when December 25, 1921 ar-
rives you will be able to appreciate the saying that: “Christmas comes
but once each year and when it comes it brings good cheer.” Try it.

RECONSTRUCTION PERIOD
After the close of the Civil war this country went through a period
of reconstruction and we are told that those were “trying times.” History
repeats itself and a reaction must follow any unusual occurrence. For the
past few years we have enjoyed unusual prosperity and as might have been
expected, the reaction has come. We knew it was coming, but none of us
“expected it to be “so sudden.” .
Frank Vanderlip, one of the greatest financiers of this or any other
country, an acknowledged authority on money matters, made a statement
12 months ago that the conditions at that time, with high prices and plenty
of money everywhere, would continue at least two years longer. Everybody
Uelieved the statement and our reckless spending continued without abate-
ment. In less than 12 months from the time he made the statement, we
experienced a change in conditions. Mr. Vanderlip erred and now he
remains silent. Other great financiers like Schwab and Morgan iell us
that present conditions will not last long and that good times are just
ahead. We have learned to place about as much faith in statements from
great financiers as we do in those coming from lesser lights. ’
What we need is more confidence in ourselves and the government
under which we live. Good times or hard times is a state of mind with
most of us. “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” If the people will
simply cast doubt and fear aside, think prosperity, act prosperity and
substitute optimism for pessimism, prosperity will return immediately.
We are the cause of present conditions, because we lost faith in ourselves.
Just as soon as confidence is restored and we again go about our tasks
in the usual way, filled with the spirit of optimism, it will not be necessary
tc look and wait for the return of good times, they will have returned
‘How many people do you know who have been able to get a loan from
the bank by going to the banker with a sad countenance, dejected spirit
‘tnd woe-begone expression on their faces? To every one such person you
cap name who succeeded in getting a loan, we can record one hundred that
failed. Their very expressions frighten the banker and if he were inclined
to make the loan because of the gilt-edge security offered, he would hesi-
tate after taking a second look at his client's face. In like manner we

in large measure we have succeeded admirably.
‘We desire to thank our advertisers for their liberal patronage and urre
upon our readers the importance of trading with Tribune advertisers.
Mf you will mention the Tribune when making a purchase from one of our

BARD OF SKiBO
Andrew Carnogie's autobiography now is published. He left it in the
form of notes which have been arranged in chronological order by Pro-
fessor Van Dyke. * :
Carnegie records it in ‘the motto which he inseribed in his libraries
‘at New York and at Skibo, his estate in Scotland.
It is such @ sentiment as one might expect of a man who built so many
public libraries in the United States.
“He who cannot read is a fool.
“He that will not is a bigot.
“fle that dare not is @ slave.”
No less interesting is his creed, the final sentences of which are, “It
would be no greater miracle to be born to a future life than to haye been
born to live in this present life. The one has been created, why uot the
other? Therefore, there is reason to hope for immortality. Why not hope?”

THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING
BANNER ATTRACTIONS FOR COLORED PUPILS OF THE HIGH SCHOOL
By Earle A. Johnson
Friday, December 17th, was a banner day for the Colored detachment of the Phoenix Union High school cadet corps. The assembly bells rang at 9:15 a. m. and the student body rushed to the athletic field to await the arrival of their favorite companies. Among the vast throng that flocked to the athletic field were the Colored girls and teachers. They were waiting patiently when the Colored cadets arrived, following closely behind Company C. Their ever anxious spirit was now still, as was the rest of the student body.
It was a rare sight indeed as the 650 cadets executed squads left and marched to their places which was designated by a guide. Our guide was Sergt. Benton James.
When the companies were stationed in their respective places the major gave orders to all the companies. The companies executing the commands together was very pleasing to witness. First on the program of the day was passing in review of the companies. Company A was the first to pass the reviewing stand. They were applauded. Next was Company B, then Company C. The next company to pass in review was the cavalry detachment (our boys) under the personal command of Lieut. James Rossier. Marching in a column of fours we executed a column left and in the next instant fours left, which brought all our boys, eight in number, abreast. They marched past the reviewing stand holding the line as straight as an arrow and marching to the tune of the music like veterans of many years training, with their guns upon their right shoulder in a straight line, were freely applauded.
After passing in review we went to the back of field as did the other companies. Next on the program of the day was the manual of arms competitive drill. With the company's best as its representatives, Corporal Robert Fambrough and Private Floyd Johnson represented our boys.
"Corp. Robert Fambrough was put out through no mistake of his own," Lieut. Rosser said. His statement was followed by him securing a manual and showing the judges where they were wrong in putting Corp. Fambrough out.
The next happening was the relay race. All companies desiring could enter a team consisting of four men. Lieut. Rosser having been informed about the relay race the morning it

Luxury vs. Necessity
Luxury is anything which pleases the senses and is also costly and difficult to obtain. Necessity is something that is indispensable. How many of us have ever tried to list in these two categories the things for which we spend our money? It should be out of the expenditures in the luxury column that we should build our "provident fund"—often called a Savings Account. Certain luxuries should be sacrificed each week so that the sum provided against sickness, loss of work and other emergencies can be built up to withstand unexpected calls upon it.
We pay 4% interest on Savings Accounts at this friendly bank. Open yours here today.

SAVINGS
was to take place, had not had ample time in which to pick a team. He finally consented to enter.
Our team was Lieut. James Rosser, Sergt. Benton James and Privates Eloyd Johnson and Frank Marlow. The distance was the length of the athletic field, which is 110 yards (more or less). The teams lined up with Lieut. Rosser and Sergt. James at the north end of the field and Privates Johnson and Marlow at the south end. The multitudes who had gathered to see the happenings were silent, and every nerve was strained upon the starter and runners, and probably prayers were muttered as the boys were about to start.
At the sound of the whistle the runners were off. Amid a cloud of dust and amid the cheering of 1500 students, it was clearly seen that Lieut. Rosser was leading. The same Rosser who had turned many a defeat into victory on the football field for Phoenix High was now headed toward his partner, Private Frank Marlow, who was anxiously awaiting his turn. In the twinkling of an eye, "Ross," as he is commonly called, had touched Marlow's hand and Marlow was leading the field nearing his partner, Sergeant Benton James, who was awaiting his turn to do his share. Sergt. James' hand had been touched by the speeding Marlow and Sergt. James was now tearing down the field like a wild horse with the others close on his heels. Touching Private Johnson's hand, who was stationed there waiting for him, Private Johnson was off like a deer with swiftness seeming to equal that of Rosser. This last sprint was a close roce. In the center of the field the racers were almost neck and neck, but with that courage and determination which had won for him the manual of arms competition drill, and with tiger-like agility he forged ahead of the field and finished first amid the excitement of 1500 students.
It was a grand achievement for the Colored boys of the Phoenix Union High school, and it speaks well for Lieut. James Rosser, who himself is a student.
The students and teachers of the Colored department of the school are proud of their boys, as are the Colored people of Phoenix in general.
