$10,000 IN PRIZES TO HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS This government is based upon the fundamental idea that each man, no matter what his occupation, his race, or his religious belief, is entitled to be treated on his worth as a man, and neither favored nor discriminated against because of any accident in his position.—Theodore Roosevelt. VOL. VI—NO. 11 SPLENDID PROGRAM RENDERED AT HIGH SCHOOL OCT. 12TH The open house and educational program held by the Colored department of the Phoenix Union High School at the school building, 8th and Jefferson streets on Friday afternoon, October 12, was a delightful affair. Long before time for the program to begin, the chapel was filled to overflow with interested parents and friends who had come to inspect the building and witness the exercises. Mrs. A. C. Caldwell, head of this department of the High School, presided as mistress of ceremonies and introduced the participants. The welcome address was delivered by Mrs. G. S. Rodgers, teacher of English and American History. Her remarks showed thorough preparation, and the welcome address was a gem of rhetorical excellence. Prof. Ellis O. Knox, teacher of Science and Athletics, next addressed the assembly on the subject: "National Progress in Education." His remarks were timely and well received. Prof. Knox also proved his ability as an orator of the first class and the manner in which he handled his subject showed that he had given it much time and study. A vocal solo by Miss Claudia Grant, teacher of Domestic Science, was well rendered and brought forth much applause. The Rev. E. E. Burkhalter, pastor of the Second Baptist church, delivered an able address on the subject: "Why Educate the Young?" As a public speaker, Dr. Burkhalter showed marked ability, swaying his audience at will with his profound logic and matchless eloquence. Miss Sadie Walton, one of the Sophomore students, convulsed, thrilled and delighted the audience with a humorous selection. Miss Walton exhibited unusual ability as an elocutionist and it is freely predicted that there is a great future for her in this line. A saxophone and p'ano selection by Douglas Smith and Mrs. G. S. Rodgers, was well rendered and elicited much applause. Mrs. W. C. Hackett, president of the Phoenix Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, read an excellent paper on "Racial Progress in Education." As usual, Mrs. Hackett handled her subject in a masterful way, presenting many facts and figures which showed that the Colored people have made real progress along educational lines. Mrs. Nola Hamilton delighted the audience with a select reading, rendered in that pleasing and inimitable manner of which she is capable. Mrs. Noble White premier musician and prominent clubwoman of this city, rendered a difficult piano selection that electrified the audience and brought forth thunderous applause. Mrs. Jessie James next addressed the assembly on the subject: "Pioneers of Education in Arizona." Mrs. James told of the early struggles in which she and others had engaged, to secure for the Colored children of Phoenix adequate school facilities, and of her determination to continue the fight for better and more modern buildings and other equipment for the Colored school children of Phoenix. Mrs. James said that, like Theodore Roosevelt, she believed that "aggressive fighting for the right is the greatest sport in which anyone can engage." Prof. Daniel F. Jantzen, principal of the Phoenix Union High School, was next introduced and gave a great and helpful talk on the subject: "Education for Citizenship." Among other things, Prof. Jantzen said the great objective of the founders of this country was to develop and make this a wonderful commonwealth for free citizens. He further stated that education played an important part in fitting one for American citizenship. Prof. Jantzen, like many other speakers, said that he considered the present Colored High School a great step in advance and that in time, more improvements would be made to take care of the increasing population among the Colored High School students. Prof. Jantzen's remarks were listened to attentively by the large crowd and he was roundly applauded. Impromptu addresses were made by Mrs. Allen Smith, Mrs. J. T. Lucas, Mrs. I. McPinion, Rev. M. Thompson, Mrs. M. T. Phelps and A. R. Smith.

"Every American citizen," the President said, "is entitled to a liberal education. Without this there is no guarantee for the permanence of free institutions, no hope of perpetuating self-government. Despotism finds its chief support in ignorance. Knowledge and freedom go hand in hand." The colored citizens are in hearty accord with the views and purposes of the President, and Education Week will be generally observed by them. BILL TATE ANXIOUS FOR FIGHT WITH THE INVINCIBLE WILLS (Preston News Service) NEW YORK, Oct.—"Harry Wills can have my $2,500 any time he signs a contract to meet me in the ring." Thus spoke Big Bill Tate after seeing Wills stow away Homer Smith in the second round of their fight in Kalamazoo. Mich., recently. Tate, Firpo and Kid Norfolk had rings'de seats. Tate is going to put up the money with Tex Rickard or the Boxing Commission of New York, and the minute Wills sign_s he can have the money. Sport writers here say that Tate is the only man in the world aching to get into the same ring with Harry Wills. Tate is willing to go in the ring against Wills because he weet the distance with Harry in Oregon over a year ago. WILLS GETS $9,000 FOR FIVE MINUTES OF FIGHTING. AVERS (Preston News Service) NEW YORK, Oct.-Harry Wills received $9,082.20 for his five minutes and six seconds of fighting with Homer Smith in Kalamazoo, Mich., recently, it was announced here last week. Wills, it will be remembered, rendered his opponent senseless with a number of powerful body blows, the knockout coming after two minutes and six seconds of fighting in the second round. The amount Wills received, if divided into five parts, will show that the Bronze Beauty Panther got approximately $1,800 a minute. Smith got $3,028.07. The gross receipts, including the war tax of 10 per cent, amounted to $28,124.80. The state got 3 per cent. 7,000 fans saw the fight and 6,164 paid for admission. TEXAS SHORTAGE OF COTTON PICKERS IS LATEST REPORT TEXAS SHORTAGE OF COTTON PICKERS IS LATEST REPORT DALLAS, Tex.—Texas cotton fields are in need of pickers, according to officials of employment bureau here, who assert that the demand is far greater than the supply. Unwillingness to work for the wages offered is causing the shortage, it is said. Between 200 and 300 laborers are coming into Dallas daily, it was said, and employment agencies are experiencing great difficulty in placing them in jobs because of wages demanded. was delivered by Mr. J. M. Stewart, president of the Board of Education of the Phoenix Union High school. Mr. Stewart, in his pleasing and unostentious way, drove home with telling force, some wonderful truths and held the audience spell-bound throughout his remarkable discourse. Mr. Stewart began his address by stating that there remained nothing for him to say, as several of the former speakers had "stolen his thunder." It was the consensus of opinion that if any of the previous speakers had, as he said, "stolen his thunder," he evident PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1923 BANNIE GOLD MINE OWNED BY PRESCOTT MAN IS BIG WINNER R. M. Garret, manager of the Bannie Gold and Copper Mining Company of Prescott, Ariz., stated this week to a reporter that work at the mine is progressing and that the ore taken from the mine is very rich in free milling gold. According to the opinion of experts, the Bannie has the making of a real mine, if properly developed. Mr. Garrett has expended more than $75,000 himself in development and equipment of the property. The Bannie Gold and Copper Mining Company is incorporated under the laws of the state of Arizona, with an authorized capital of $1,500,000, in shares of $1.00 each, and has been duly authorized to sell its stock. A special and limited allotment of the company's stock is now being offered for sale at Fifty Cents per share. This stock, according to the promoters, is not being sold by the company to make money out of the public, but to make money together with the public from the development of the mine. Engineers' reports on the property have been made by T. C. Archer, J. W. Martin and J. W. Jenkins. These three men are of wide practical experience and long training, and they have agreed that the Bannie gives promise of making a mine of size and richness. From the location of the Bannie claims, the reports made by the engineers who have examined the company's properties, the quality and quantity of the minerals disclosed by its ledges and veins, and the assays made of its ores, the officers and directors of the company believe that the stock of this company gives unusual promise of large profits in due time. When the mine development is completed, however, if the exceptional indications of the present are fulfilled, stock will not be obtainable. By investing now and co-operating with those who are backing with money and time their faith in the favorable prospects disclosed by the present development of the property, you will participate in the ultimate benefit accruing to all.

Oct—*I am ready to defend my home if Ku Klux Klan ever comes to see me," was the calm statement of Lorenza Holmes, aged 25 years, of Marion, Ark., when officers asked him why he had so many shot guns in his home. According to the police, Holmes was seen several times in the streets here with a package that looked so much like a gun that it was thought advisable to secretly investigate what he was doing with them. Two detectives were ordered to shadow Holmes' movements. They followed him to his home. They had a "John Doe" warrant and searched his home, resulting in the discovery of a dozen shot guns and several pistols as well as a large quantity of ammunition. He showed the officials that he had purchased the guns. He also informed them that he had been collecting these fine guns for the past 10 years. The officers claim that Holmes has some of the finest makes of shot guns. Holmes is said to be a well respected man in his community. ly retained the lightning, for he electrified the audience and received vociferous applause. Light refreshments were served by the students, after which all departed with a better feeling towards the management of the Colored Division of the Phoenix' Union High School. At the close of the exercises, Mrs. Jessie James, on behalf of the Arizona Federation of Colored Women's clubs, presented the school a large picture of Dean Kelly Miller, also one of Mrs. Mary B. Talbert and the Frederick WHITE MEN CAUGHT IN COMPROMISING POSITION IN SOUTH NEW ORLEANS, La., Oct.—When the police swooped down on the "rooming houses" operated by Mrs. Julia Washington and Mrs. Fannie Mitchell, it resulted in their rounding up 22 white men holding a party with white and Negro women partners, who were charged with disturbing the peace. It was said that when the officers were attracted to the houses by the extraordinary amount of hilarity at an early hour in the morning, but just a few hours past midnight, they demanded to see the licenses under which the houses were operated. When the licenses were not forthcoming, the officers rushed inside and a stampede resulted. Police say that white men were found under the beds, in closets and in fact in every possible hiding place. One white man, who is said to be a very prominent business man here, declared that he usually took his meals at the Washington house whenever he felt like it. His name is Thomas J. Kelly, and he appeared in court as spokesman for the entire group of white men. Each of the men was fined $2.50 and the women were assessed $5 each. HEAVY ENROLLMENT REPORTED AT HOWARD SCHOOL THIS YEAR WASHINGTON — Indications point to an enrollment of approximately 1.200 students at Howard University for the first semester of the present college year. This number, when added to the three upper-year classes will undoubtedly bring the total student body of Howard to the highest figure ever reached in the history of the institution. BAPTISTS MAKING A SHOWING Special from Nashville On recommendation of President L. K. Williams, the National Baptist Convention voted that the $410,000.00 building they are now erecting in this city, be known as the E. C. Morris Memorial Building. It is reported that President N. B. C. will call an Executive Board meeting here, the first week in December, and it may be the corner stone of the Morris Memorial Building, the home of the Sunday School Publishing Board, will be laid at that time. The Board of Promotion of the N. R. C. which was created in April, last, and told to raise $100,000.00, claims to have raised $17,050.00, and they are now after the balance. The Building Committee must have $50,000 in November, and Dr. Jordan, D'actor of the drive, believed the Baptists will give it. He says: "When Baptists must, they can do big things—just watch us get that $50,000 by November." For our pastors and leaders not to "put out" and "collect in" the envelopes sent them, and send the money to Dr. Townsend, by Thursday, November 1st, will greatly endanger pushing work on the "Morris Memorial" building—our publishing house. I have just passed the place and 26 men are pushing the work as fast as they can. The whole Building Committee, with Secretary Townsend, are making the effort of a life time to have the $50,000.00 on November 1st, and they are counting on you. Join us in this stupendous effort and report. WE MUST NOT FAIL. Yours in His service. L. G. JORDAN. Howard Gale, colored, was jailed in default of payment of a fine of $11.45, assessed for sitting in the "white coach" of an interurban line entering Baltimore. Douglass Memorial Home. Mrs. O. G. Howard presented the students a croquet set, and they showed their appreciation by putting it to use immediately. WHITES IN CONTROL TUSKEGEE HOSPITAL IS FINAL ANALYSIS MEMPHIS—A few months ago when Negroes from all parts of the country were making a howl, practically demanding the removal of white officers at the Veterans Hospital at Tuskegee, Director General F. T. Hines made strong assertions that the personnel at Tuskegee would be Negro, as well as said that he was endeavoring to work out a plan for a board of control to be composed of both whites and Negroes similar to Tuskegee Institute. The Negroes were lead to believe that such a plan might be O. K. since it seemed that the entire staff at the hospital would be composed of Negro physicians and nurses. Then the big noise about the Tuskegee personnel abated somewhat, and finally Director Hines has let it be known that he is in sympathy with the special southern committee and has granted them exactly what they desired. A white man for surgeon-in-chief with two other white men as assistants. That Negroes of the country may not be mislead as to the intentions of Director Hines, the following letter to George W. Lee, vice president of the Mississippi Life Insurance Company, with offices in this city, is evidence sufficient. The letter follows; Mr. George W. Lee, Vice President, Mississippi Life Insurance Company. 390 Beale Avenue, Memphis, Tennessee. My dear Mr. Lee:— Your letter of September 19th, addressed to the President, with which you inclosed a resolution passed by the Tennessee State Convention of the American Legion, relative to the United States Veterans' Hospital No. 91, Tuskegee, Alabama, has been forwarded to this Bureau for reply. You are advised that careful consideration was given to the matter of staffing this Hospital, and it has been decided that with the exception of the commanding officer and two assistants, the personnel will be colored. Steps are now being taken to replace the white employees on duty by colored personnel. I wish to express to you my appreciation of your interest in the matter. You're very truly. Yours very truly, (Signed) FRANK T. HINES, Director. COLORED FARMERS IN ARKANSAS WIN IN PRIZES AT FAIR CONWAY, Ark., Oct.—Exhibits entered in the Arkansas state fair at Little Rock by Negro farmers won high honors. The exhibit by club members of Faulkner county brought first prize for county exhibit; second place on the corn exhibit, as well as sweet potatoes. According to E. T. Mattison, county agent, the products entered at Little Rock were taken largely from the exhibits shown at the Faulkner county fair by Negro farmers here recently. Mr. Mattison says that he is exceedingly interested in this, as it is an evidence that Negro farmers have made great progress in this county; and have shown conclusively that agricultural conditions can be improved and made more profitable. He declares that less than a score of young Negro men have migrated from Faulkner county during the past six years. In fact, he states, many Negroes have come into the county and settled on small farms, which they have developed very creditably. (Preston News Service) ARKADELPHIA, Ark., Oct. 25—Mrs. Sarah Ross, said to be aged 101 years, the oldest resident of Clark county, died at her home near Hollywood last Sunday. Mrs. Ross was born at Clear Springs, this county, and lived here all her life. Her son, Eaf Ross, is said to be one of the wealthiest Negro planters in Arkansas. SHARON, Pa., Oct.—When a cable broke, resulting in the upsetting of a ladle of molten metal in the open hearth department of the Carnegie Steel Company plant here, Theodore Brown, aged 19, was one of five men to be instantly cooked into a crisp when the 70 tons of steel heated to 2,500 degrees showered down on their heads like a mass of water, engulfing the men. Their bodies were roasted into a crisp almost instantly by the white hot flames that leaped skyward and seemed to smack its jaws laughingly as it devoured its entraped victims. Brown, unmarried, lived at Farrell. MOTHER 102 YEARS OLD WORRIED ABOUT HER SON AGED 87 WASHINGTON, D. C.—Mrs. Carrie Thompson, born in slavery 102 years ago, came into police court looking for her boy, Milledge Abner, who is only 87, and who failed to come back from his afternoon walk in the sun. He was later picked up for begging and sent to Gallinger Hospital, under observation for mental disorder. Feeble, and wrinkled as a dried apple, Mrs. Thompson told the court that she had spent a sleepless night, fearing that Milledge had been injured in crossing the streets. She said he was frail and feeble-minded and she had to feed him and look after him; but he was all that she had in the world and she wanted him back so they might die together. TEX RICKARD WILL KEEP FIGHT FIRES BURNING, AVERS NEW YORK, Oct.—According to Tex Rickard, prize-fight magnate, the winner of the Battling Siki-Kid Norfolk scramble will get a chance with Tommy Gibbons, the St. Paul Veteran, who went the entire route with Jack Dempsey, heavy weight champion. There is a chance, however, that Gibbons will refuse to fight either man, inasmuch as he considered himself in line for a return match with Dempsey, and failing in this, want a crack at Luis Angel Firpo. Gibbons, it is thought, might feel that a bout with either Siki or Norfolk might jeopardize his chances against Dempsey or Firpo. Some are inclined to think that this round-about stuff is still another effort on the part of Rickard and Jack Kearns to stave off the possibility of a fight between Dempsey and Harry Wills. KLANSMEN MUST NOT WEAR THEIR MASKS IN STATE OF OHIO YOUNGSTOWN, O., Oct.—Following the announcement by klan kleagle Gunder, that the biggest gathering of klansmen yet held in the state of Ohio would be staged here on November 10, Mayor W. G. Reese stated last Wednesday that no masks would be permitted in any parade in Youngstown. Gunder declares that more than 150,000 klansmen will gather here from western Pennsylvania, West Virginia and all parts of Ohio. Due to the movement having for its purpose the transfer of the bones of Gen. James Edward Oglethorpe from England to Georgia, a mass of interesting data concerning the life of the founder of the colony, now the State of Georgia, is being brought to light. An anomaly, disassociated with the name Georgia, is that Oglethorpe was one of the first anti-slavery advocates in England. Race prejudice is bound to give way before the influence of character, education and wealth. These are necessary to the growth of our race. Without wealth there can be no leisure, without leisure there can be no thought, and without thought there can be no progress. Booker T. Washington. 15 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year C. O. Case, State Superintendent of Education, has been officially notified of the opening of the Prize Essay Contest of the American Chemical Society of New York in which all students of high and secondary schools in the State of Arizona have been invited to compete in a national contest for $10,000 in cash prizes and scholarships to Yale, Vassar and other universities and colleges. The contest, which is the result of the gift of Mr. and Mrs. Francis P. Garvan of New York, is a memorial to their daughter, Patricia, and is intended to stimulate interest among high school students in the development of chemical science in this country. All arrangements for the contest are in the hands of the committee on Prize Essays of the American Chemical Society, with headquarters at the Munson Building, New York City. Six prizes of $20 in gold are to be awarded in each state in the Union and scholarships to Yale and Vassar will be given for the six best essays in the United Stats. These scholarships will carry with them tuition for four years in chemistry or chemical engineering and $500 a year in cash. In addition to these awards many other scholarships will be offered through various universities and colleges. A set of five books which include Creative Chemistry, by Slosson; The Riddle of the Rhine, by Lefebure; The Life of Pasteur, by Vallery-Radot; Discovery, The Spirit and Service of Science, by Gregory, and The Future Independence and Progress of American Medicine in the Age of Chemistry, by a Committee of the American Chemical Society, is being sent from the New York headquarters to every accredited high and secondary school in the country, and sets of these reference books are being placed in the leading libraries of the State for the use of students who enter the competition. It is the plan of the committee in charge to appoint a national committee of fifteen who will be chosen from all walks of life; from among the leading educators, scientists and public spirited men and women of the country. It will be the duty of this committee to judge the essays and to award the scholarships in the national competition. They will be assisted in their work by State Committees of eleven whose duty it will be to award the prizes in the state competitions. Johnstown, Pa., recently rendered ludicrous by a Negro exclusion order issued by a discredited official, returned to the colored lime-light again last week when objection was raised by certain white people against the occupancy of church property, purchased by a colored Methodist organization in a white neighborhood. The Rev. Brady, pastor, has pledged to pay $40,000 for the church. Phoenix Key to Happiness Arizona's Leaf Phoenix Published Semi-Monthly by the Address all Com- PHOENIX P O Box 1052.

SOME DAY ALL THE RACES OF THE WORLD WILL BE FREE AND INDEPENDENT, or at least as free as they may elect to become. Some may choose to cast their lot with a neighboring nation for mutual welfare, but there will be no compulsion in the matter. The day of the autocrat is nearly spent and his sun is fast approaching the point of obscurity. The world is preparing for universal peace. It may not be realized within the present century; but it is coming as surely as the sun rises. It was no part of the Divine Law that one set of men should be masters and another set slaves regardless of race or color. Men have been slaves for untold centuries, but as the light of intelligence penetrates the darkened corners of the earth there is an awakening of a desire for freedom. The railroads, the steamship, the airships, the press, the telephone and the telegraph, the radio or whatever name may be given to wireless communication are all bringing the ends of the earth together into closer communion, and as men become better acquainted they find that there is not such a great difference in humanity, and as they become better educated they begin to think along practically the same lines. Ignorance and superstition are the barriers that stand between world peace and international brotherhood and slavery and wretchedness. Europe is at present in a very unsettled condition. It is passing through a period of evolution of the most trying nature, but it will emerge from its troubles clarified and freed from its militarism, its selfishness, its jealousies and many other evils that today hang about the necks of the nations like mill-stones hampering their freedom of action and prolonging their misery. Some day the world will awaken to the folly of the present system of national and international government. Some day there will be a desire to get together and deliberate in a sane manner upon world economics. Some day the nations will agree to lay aside their jealousies and unite for the common welfare in the establishing of a world tribunal that will function along the lines of universal justice. Some men may scoff at this idea, but the change is gradually taking place. Men's hearts are softening everywhere and as they know each other better they are beginning to love each other more. The past quarter century has seen wonderful advances toward the universal goal. It has witnessed the downfall of dynasties, the crumbling of empires and a general breaking down of the old monarchial system that bound nations and people in slavery. It is not to be expected that the nations, long accustomed to the old system, could re-adjust their economic machinery properly and satisfactorily without many trials; but each trial will be productive of something better and eventually the world will work out and adopt a suitable program for the conduct of its international affairs, and in working for the common good will develop its domestic policies upon lines of the highest efficiency and harmony. No laws can be good laws that are not for the benefit of all the people of the state and nation, and no nation can reasonably expect to participate in the benefits of a world peace until it is ready to adopt the "Golden Rule" as the basis of its international associations. The Salt River Valley is coming into its own and the farmers are reaping a harvest of dollars. Diversified farming is the thing. The writer spent many years on a farm and we know whereof we speak.

JOHNSON, Interrracial Secretary for Oklahoma STEPS IN CHRISTIAN GROWTH "But grow in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." Grow or die is nature's law. It is also the law of the spirit. Just as complying with the laws of natural growth will assure physical development, so will compliance with the laws of spiritual growth guarantee spiritual development. Time is an element in both physical and spiritual growth. It takes time to grow from infancy to maturity. Time is also required to grow from "babes in Christ" to the "fullness of the stature of manhood" in Him. We invite your consideration of the following steps in Christian growth: 1. Recognition of the value of little things. 2. Recognition of the necessity of working alone with God. 3. Recognition of the necessity of working with others for God. 3. Recognition of the fact that all things belong to God. I. Recognition of the value of little things. Little things are important because, accumulated or amplified, they make big things. A snowflake is very small and insignificant, yet enough of them accumulated constitute the avalanche which sweeps all things before it. A little thing—boiling water in a teakettle—suggested the steam engine. The little question, why? with reference to a falling apple, is responsible for Newton's discovery of the law of gravitation. A little suggestion by Harriet Beecher Stowe's sister was the thought which made possible "Unele Tom's Cabin," the greatest single factor in the abolition of slavery in the United States. A little thing, assassination of one of the worst men in all Europe, plunged the world into the greatest war known to history. Yes, little things are all important. We cannot "grow in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ," without a just appreciation of their importance. The little word of kindness, the little deed of hopefulness, the little act of devotion, the "little talk with Jesus" are mighty factors in Christian growth. If the white and black people in this country would properly value the little acts of interracial co-operation for community welfare, the Stars and Stripes would carry a message to the eleven hundred million colored peoples in this world which would inspire hope and courage hitherto unknown. 2. Recognition of the necessity of working alone with God. Though one with God is a majority, the average man does not so regard it. He feels lonesome unless he is in a crowd. He will suppress personal conviction rather than be unpopular. This is why good thinking, fair-minded people suffer without protest so many things against which their conscience rebels. The white press often maintains an attitude of opposition or, at best, indifference to the Negro's welfare, because they think such an attitude satisfies the public. The Negro press responds in kind and, thus, the racial breach keeps open. Most white ministers are conspicously silent on matters affecting race relations. Studying the scriptures as they do, and thinking on a high ethical plane about things generally, it must cost them many pangs of conscience not to lead the fight against oppression and race hate. Negro ministers, instead of using their influence and eloquence to make peace between the races, pass the whole subject by and stress the good times that await us when we leave this world. The average citizen of both races excuses himself from any active responsibility in contributing to better race relations. Thus the press, the ministry, the average citizen, miss the help to Christian growth which working alone with God affords. 3. A recognition of the necessity of working with others for God. Big and helpful things are started by individuals but they are carried through to success by a combination of interest and efforts. Business enterprises combine and make bigger business. Churches and clubs federate and put over larger and more effectual programs. The best team work determines the winner in the ball game. So does working with others for God bring greatest results in kingdom building. How the church suffers when members fail to work together! The community that is dead or non-progressive is the victim of too much individuality. Places where race friction is at its worst are those where the two races fail to co-operate for mutual welfare. The greatest work the white man and black man in America can do together for God is to unite on a program of brotherhood. 4. A recognition of the fact that all things belong to God. Weak and dependent as man is, he somehow has gotten the idea in his head that he is owner of the things in his possession! He says, my money, my property, my talents, my time and my life. Acting upon that presumption, he uses his money, his property, his talents, his time and his life just as though God had no claim on them. Therefore Christianity lags, man suffers and Jesus our Savior, continues "a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief." The Lord's weeping over Jersusalem was indicative of more than present sorrow. It was prophetic of His continued grief over a rebellious world. Brother, sister, how long are we going to be guilty of the sin of covetousness? For do you not know when you refuse to lay your money, your prosperity, your talents, your time and your life on the altar of sacrifice to Him, you are a victim of covetousness? The Lord is sorrowfully waiting for men and women of all races to see that their past, influenced by pride and prejudice, has brought heartaches to all, and to recognize the necessity of practicing brotherhood one toward the other a step in Christian growth that will bring to this old world prosperity and peace.

It is hers to choose whether she will adopt a plain classically-tailored mode, or whether she will tread the path of the majority who are all enthusiasm this season over suits as whimsical as fashion artistry can conceive them. One can fancy the joyous spring bride selecting for her "going away" suit just such a charmingly girlish model as is here pictured. It is styled of navy poetre twill elaborately embroidered in silver on Belgian blue. The hat is of brown shirred taffeta, with silk veil to match. Fine stitcheries in Far East colors on a jacket section of real mandarin cut express a very attractive fashion set for the coming months. In fact, embroideries of all descriptions are the dominating feature. There are two ideas running through suit designs. RIBBONS FURNISH FOR GIRDL "MAKE it of ribbon" is apparently the prevailing sentiment throughout the realm of fashion. The pictures herewith tell of the magic which lurks in a length of ribbon. Just now the Deauville bandanna is the subject supreme in the way of dress accessories. It has a rival in the ribbon kerchief drape, such as is pictured in the small circle. The way to make this interesting novelty is to take four pieces of wide ribbon, miter them at the corners and join by double bemstitching or fagoting. This pretty "ribonette", as it has been aptly called, can be worn as a square, pulled around so that one point comes down in the front with each shoulder and the back adorned with the other points. A pleasing variation is to knot one point in kerchief effect. Fancy girdles—what a sensation they are creating among dress accessories, and how gracefully ribbon lends itself to the general scheme! The picture tells, in two views, how to fashion the cleverest sort of a hip-scarf or girdle out of about one and three One is the restricting of trimmings to a certain section of the coat, the other is a general favor accorded the all-over design. The latter fashion is even carried to the extreme of entirely covering the cloth background with soutache. Bell and flowing sleeves, almost capelike in their tendency, feature many of the suits. Belts are conspicuous by their absence, the straight unbroken backline being the preferred style. Silks as well as cloth are favored for dressy suits. These include various heavy crepes. Fine twills are popular among woolen fabrics and colored poplins are very good, in such shades as putty, gray, cocoa, carmel. Julia Bottomley (© 1923, Western Newspaper Union.) INSPIRATION ES AND KERCHIEFS quarters yards of wide ribbon. Two pieces are mitered to make a corner, the one three-fourths-yard in length, the other one yard. The process is shown in the section held to view by the young woman, who afterwards knots it about the hips, point over right hip, as the standing figure displays. Among other ribbon novelties is a very effective cap for the boudoir. A yard and a half of ribbon 6 or 7 inches wide is required. Fold it to find the center, shirr here in five vertical rows, so as to draw down to conform to the head. To one side measure 12 inches, at which point cut a slit or buttonhole almost across the ribbon. Overcast this with floss, so it will not ravel. In adjusting, pull the other end of the ribbon through at the back of the head. Bring both ends forward and treat the front in a butterfly bow. Julia Bottomley ( @, 1922, Western Newspaper Union. ) THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING DELUXE BATHING SUITS ```markdown ``` I ```markdown ``` THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY ```markdown ``` OPINION is divided as to whether there is more pleasure in anticipation than in realization. Why not experience a double happiness in the now plus the then? Anyway it is not too early to anticipate the joys of summer in the way of sea-bathing and beach sports. There is an unusually wide range offered in the selection of bathing suits this season. Of course the practical thing is the knit or jersey bathing suit, but with such alluring fancy prints and gay decorative schemes as are represented in costume throughout, small wonder that bathing cos- LACE GOWNS PORT EXQUISITE WHY not indulge in the luxury of an all-lace gown? There is an indefinable charm about filmy lace, and this season in particular it is playing an exquisitely feminine role in dress. Society is featuring most enchanting lace costumes, not only in pure white and faint tea shades, but in pastel tints as lovely as imagination can picture. Then, too, by way of variation, various sorts of lace are combined, as is instanced in the lovely gown in the picture. Notice how effectively Italian renaissance lace forms the lower portion of the skirt, topped with the sheerest kind of mesh. Perhaps in grandma's cedar chest reposes a length of rich lace, not enough to make an entire frock, and yet, if one only could use it to advantage. Here is a suggestion, if acted upon, that will mean the joy of a frock Reports from Cleveland, Ohio, say that city is a splendid field for a saving and loan company properly conducted by our people. There are more than 40,000 Negroes there and all are working. Many have bought homes and others are buying them. The demand for homes is greater than in almost any other northern city, with the possible exception of Detroit, Mich. tunes have succumbed to the fad. For that matter some of the knitted suits this year are almost spectacular in their gay interwoven designs. There is quite a considerable interest manifest in chintz bathing suits. Their appearance on the beach is part of the joyous colorful scene and those who know the art of becoming dress are staging enchanting effects with sea and sky for a background. Imagine, if you please, a bathing suit of potret chintz in warm brown, orange and red printings on an ivory ground. This was recently designed for a prominent society woman. The truly handsome bathing suit shown in the picture is an inspiration to anyone planning an outfit from the aesthetic standpoint as well as the practical. It is a genuine batik hand wax-dye design, so exquisitely wrought as to merit the artist's name attached. The latest idea in bathing caps is the artistic wrapping of a length of moire silk which has the ends pinked by a machine into tiny points. Julia Bottomley 1923. Western Newspaper Union. RAY AN LY FEMININE MODE which gives the impression of being all lace. Make the skirt part as long as the lace you have in hand permits. It need not reach even to the knees. To this hemstitch a wide plain section of georgette crepe, white if the lace is so, or matched to its exact tint. The bottom of the skirt of georgette is picted by machine; or, if you prefer, the georgette may be attached as a double hem. The waist portion, having been formed of the lace, may be sleeved and collared with the georgette. Orchid lace gowns with orchid velvet ribbon girdles are popular in the smart social set. Julia Bottomley Deputy Attorney General English, of Pennsylvania, detailed by Governor Pinchot to investigate Mayor Cauffiel's order issued against colored migrants, has filed his report with the Governor. The Mayor "took to tall timber," disclaiming that he had ordered Negroes to leave. He said he exercised a police practice ordering undesirable characters to leave the city in a certain time. That's all! Mrs. Fred Gardiner of 916 So. 7th avenue, was a charming hostess last Tuesday afternoon when she entertained in honor of the Colored teachers of the city, also the S. I. A. Club, with a beautifully appointed luncheon at which venison sandwiches, salad and coffe were served. A splendid program, arranged by that talented musician, Mrs. Matthew White, was rendered to the delight of all present. An especially attractive number was the select reading by Mrs. M. Thompson, assistant teacher of the Douglass Kindergarten. After having enjoyed the unique venison luncheon and the delightful program, all expressed a wish that Mr. Gardiner would be equally successful next year in getting another 4-point Buck, that Mrs. Gardiner might repeat the affair. Among those to enjoy Mrs. Gardiner's hospitality were: Mrs. M. Thompson, Mrs. I. F. Silvers, Mrs. M. Williams, Mrs. S. R. Maguinez, Mrs. Darrow, Mrs. L. A. Walker, Mrs. A. C. Caldwell, Mrs. W. C. Hackett, Mrs. G. Wilson, Mrs. G. S. Rodgers, Mrs. P. F. McCutcheon, Mrs. Jessie James, Mrs. Corene M. Jones, Mrs. Allen Smith, Mrs. Luther Parker, Mrs. Anna Marooney, Mrs. Mitchell, Mrs. R. L.

Mack, Mrs. M. A. White, Prof. P. Landry, Rev. A. C. Caldwell and Rev. M. Thompson. Friends of Mr. Henry Washington will regret to learn that he is a patient in the Booker T. Washington Hospital suffering with a slight illness. He is reported as doing nicely. * * * Wonderful Eastern Trip— Madam L. B. Shirley, of the Shirley Beauty Parlors, 29 East Adams street, is home after an extended eastern trip, during which she visited in Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City and other important cities. She reports a very delightful trip, nevertheless, she is glad to be back in dear old Arizona. * * * Born last week to Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Childress of 10 N. 9th street, a bouncing baby girl. Mother and daughter doing fine, thank you. Mr. Childress, the father, for many years has been an employee of the Jefferson Hotel.

Young of 1232 East Madison street, and is staying with her relatives at the above address. Chitterlings Saturday- Every Saturday, southern chitterlings and hot corn bread will be served by Mrs. P. S. Lott at 29 South 4th street. All southerners and others who like this famous southern dish should avail themselves of the opportunity to get chitterlings every Saturday.

It is hoped that she will improve sufficiently to resume her studies at the High school, as this year she is a member of the Senior class and is due to graduate. All clubs, lodges and other organizations requested to Keep Off the Date—November 6th—as there is SOMETHING DIFFERENT already scheduled for the above date. Watch, wait, listen and get ready to attend. More anon. * * * Visits in Southland— Mrs. Albert A. Turner and children are visiting Mrs. Turer's mother in Alexandria, La. They are to remain for an indefinite time. Mr. Turner, the husband and father, in the meantime, is boarding at lunch counters, restaurants and what-nots, fully appreciating the true value of a real housewife. * * * Returns From the East— Mrs. Mattie Lindsey of 1317 East Jefferson street, who spent two months in Mississippi and Tennessee visiting relatives, is back in Phoenix and reports a very delightful trip. Mrs. Lindsey said: "The east is fine, but Phoenix, Arizona for mine." Mr. Lindsey, who had a try at batching while the wife was away, is now about the happiest man in town and is wearing a big, broad smile.
