Had Threatened To Kill Lover If He Quit, Court Hears
Sensational Southern Murder Trial Climaxed When Jury Finds Girl Guilty; Must Serve Term
MEMPHIS, Tenn., Apr. 12—Miss Mary Gale, popular society girl, and Thurday, April 13, most sensational murder trials in the history of this city, was found guilty of voluntary manslaughter by a jury here last Thursday, for killing Edward Davis, her "bachelor-lover" on February 22, when he attempted to enter her room by the trial, which consumed more than a week, fairly teemed with sensational testimony, in which the "dual-life" of the girl-killery, was pitlessly exposed to the glare of public opinion.
The prosecution to Kill.
The prosecution, in fighting her plea of self-defense, proved "beyond the shadow of a doubt" that the girl had repeatedly threatened to kill her lover if he ever tried to do so.
On the stand in her own defense, Miss Gale pleaded self-defense, alleging that she shot the man when he attemted to force his way into her room. She told a touching story: how she had given up to Davenport to Carver, then turned a deaf car to her pleadings.
"Cat Out of Bag," as Nefarious Plot to Have Race Hospital Operated by White Nurses and Doctors, Is Brought to Light.
Until recent reports gained some circulation, the Negro population of this country was quite well pleased with the prospects of seeing the Negro soldiers of the World War treated in a hospital provided by the government for that specific purpose. The report of the Consultants on Hospitalization indicate that there was a milt to employ, a slightly Negro personnel at the Tuskegee hospital where the Negro soldiers were stationed. Reports have it now that the South has used Moton and Tuskegee, dedicated with so, much pomp by Vice President Coolidge, is to be turned, over to white doctors and nurses of the south. This is the only report which seems to have shocked the ring leaders of the scheme.
Among the other statements made by the Committee u. Hospitalization is the very plain statement that the Committee is as the proper place for the hospital because the Committee was confronted with the RACE QUESTION and some suitable place had to be found where the RACE QUESTION was so difficult that the location of such an institution that did not want a Negro hospital in their borders.
On page 18 of the report of the Consultants on Hospitalization, we have stated that the acceptance, however, as an axiom that the most satisfactory solution (of the race question) rested on city with the colored people themselves, it was finally declared that the location of such an institution in the center of Negro education. CONDUCTED UNDER NEGRO LEADERSHIP, would prob. brib- bring an institution in the center of Negro education. CONDUCTED UNDER NEGRO LEADERSHIP, would prob. brib- bring an institution in the center of Negro education. In spite of the conclusion of the Consultants on Hospitalization, after they had seen members of the "Rockefeller" Foundation, the Carnegie Foundation, various groups of colored leaders, and community units in the South, some one has let it be known that Negroes are not to operate the hospital, but southern whites are to have the hospital in full charge. No Negroes are to have nothing to be done by Negroes—but after suffering—is the most recent impression let loose on the people.

BROOKLYN, N. Y., April 12—The African Methodist Episcopal Church is in the throes of what is said to be the most sensational scandal of its long and eventful career! Bishop W. T. Vernon, former Register of the United States Treasury and now in charge of the church's work in South Africa, has made public alarming and shocking charges against his co-workers, Bishop W. W. Beckett of Brooklyn, N. Y., head of the Mississippi Conference and John R. Hawkins, denominational financial agent, accusing them of unlawfully withholding $15,000 given them two years ago for the church work of South Africa.

in making known the alleged "missing fund", Bishop Vernon has so aroused the half million or more members and followers of the denomination that a reformation or revolution is threatened to burst forth at the next (1924) General Conference, it is said.
Bishop Vernon' charges:
1. Bishop W. W. Beckett is unlawfully with long $5,000,000 two years ago for mission in Africa.
2. The bishop Beckett only spent one month out. four years in Africa when assigned there.
3. That Bishop Beckett no longer wants to be African work.
4. That there will be a reformation revolution at the next conference.
That John R. Hawkins, denominational financial agent is unlawfully holding $10,000 appropriated four years ago for African work.
Beckett to Make Statement
Bishop Beckett, it is said has expressed a willingness; to answer the charges of the former Government officer, while Mr. Hawkins, gave out word from his home in Washington, D. C. that he would not discuss the subject, it is said, "I won't make it a new," per case, the financial agent said, it is reported. Referring to his failure to remain in Africa when assigned there Bishop Beckett said,
"Men who are unwilling to go or who are unwilling to stay and perform their duties in mission fields ought not be permitted to hamper those who are willing to go and stay. Beckett is facing, 'their reform or revolution. I am against revolution, but will stand with the reformers."
Two years ago the Missionary Society of the demonination appropriated $5,000 and the General Conference appropriated $10,000 to the South African work of the A.M.E. Church. Both thought that the money had been forwarded to Bishop Vernon in charge of the work there. In a letter to the Christian Recorder, several days ago, Bishop Vernon denies that he received one penny of the money in the eighte three years he spent in South Africa, although, it is said, he "begged" or the money to carry on the work, it was withheld. Bishop Vernon alleges, it is claimed, that Bishop Beckett wrote to him in 1918, say-

Ku Klux Klan
Un-American
Says Pastor
Rev. Ralph W. Beckett
ister of Invasion Bellevue
Church, Scores Veiled
"Menace" Because of Its
Attitude Toward Negro
and Jew.
Scoring the veiled menace of the Ku Klux Klan as an-American and unpatriotic because of its denial to offer the Negro and the Jew aquatic opportunities under the law of this country, and because its members hide their identity behind masks of the Ralph Klan, pastor of the Bellevue Methodist Church, drew a capacity audacity Sunday evening, when as spoke from the text, "The Ku Klux Klan and the text."
The sermon attracted city-wide attention because the church in which it was preached was invaded during the group of hooded Klansmen, who denied the opportunity to march up the aisles with a donation, were requested by the pastor either to remove them or to march before the Klansmen could reach their waiting automobiles. Attorney Elmer Kidney, a member of the congregation, tore parts of their regalia from their faces.
Called on by Kleagle
Dr. Elmer Kleagle, a member of the congregation Sunday might the fact that following the Easter disgrace, the "Frug Kleagle" of Pennsylvania and feeding Klansmen of other states had waited upon him, and had he granted an interview, in which he asked the phrase "100 per cent Americanism" and in which he drew form) from the visiting group plea declarations that no one of two religious bodies in the United States should hold a position. Dr. Urmy, in his sermon, said in part:
The increasing frequency of visits of delegations of Klan men to Protestant churches, bringing donations of money with the possible intention of establishing a connection between the Klan and the church, naturally raises the question of relationship between the two. (Continued on page 2. Col. 1)

Manager Spedden, of the Baltimore Black Sox made a ten-strike he signed to Rojo, the peppery catcher in the all-round players in the game. Mahoney is also a newcomer to the Monumental City, and from the manner in which he performed on the mound last season, should turn in many wins for the Sox this year.

Tom Jackson, mentor of the Bacharach Giants, had not only the proposition of strengthening his club to contend with, but a home park at Atlantic City was not available and the promoters have been forced to buy. Jackson, however, is optimistic, stating that he will be completed by the first of May, the fans of Atlantic City have welcomed the entrance of our club into organized ball and we feel confident that our club should be able to stay aray. **the top.** The roster of the Atlantic City club will include:
*James (Yank) Deas, c; Cummings, 1b; Downs, 2b; Davis, 3b; Lindsay, 3b; Landy, s; White, f; Cockett, s; Goodfellow, h; Hamilton, p; Harper, h; Henderson, p; Not Johnson, p; w' lines on to land another reliable backstep, the seashore representatives present a formidable array.

To make sure that he doesn't overlook some promising material, Manager Pompez, of the Cuban Stars, has been outfitted with Outfitted Oms, of the Cubans, will have to be reckoned with when it comes to long distance hitting.

Loendi Defeats Perth Amboy Five
NEW YORK, N. Y., April 12. The basketball contain which was officially rung down last Sunday at the Commonwealth Casino was raised again for a moment on Sunday, April 8th, at New Renaissance Casino, to give the World Champion Loenci team an opportunity to run rough shod over the Perth Amboy Big Five, the team that four times defeated the Commonwealth. At the end of the game the score was 45-28. About five hundred enthusiastic fans witnessed this contest, and from point of finance we opinion that the affair was a failure to the promoters. This brings us to the question of publicity. There are still some blind in our must; those who believe they can ignore newspapers and still make a success of their affairs. It can't be done. By
failing to advertise this game, the promoters made a great mistake, for the local sport sheets all carried notices the past week that the season was on, and hundreds of people reading this, looked for other fields of interest—hence the small attendance.
The first half of the game was played under professional rules, and after seeing Capt. Young and his team at the 'pro' game, we wonder why they refused to play Common Ground. At the end of the first half, the score was 17-11 in favor of Leondi. With the opening of the second half, with Seasons allowed to catch the ball after the top, the Pittsburghers had their own way, Leondi is the best colored team in the country, without a doubt, a doubt, in the end, to bid them bony voyage and hope to see them again next season.
The preliminary was played between the Blue Belts and the Zunitrellas of Brooklyn. Here also the colorist, player of the Blue Belts, invov of the Blue Belts. Here end-eth the final chapter of this season.
Howard University Loses to Va. Normal.
PETERBURG, Va., April 12. — After Howard University had grained a six-run lead in the first half of the first inning and feeling they had put the game on ice, West Virginia Normal began to tighten up by not allowing Howard to score another run and also, scoring in every inning, but the third, finally defeating them by a 15 to 6 score.
Bewildering Play of Celtics Too Much for Loendi Quintet.
Playing before one of the largest crowds which invaded the spacious Labor Temple this season, the Celtics of the East truly established themselves as World Champions here last Thursday night, when they defeated our own Loeniel Club, 48-27, in a game in which the outstanding team gave the great playing of the visiting aggregation.
The game developed into a rout, with the locals gamely, but in vain, attempting to check the shower of haskets under which they were swamped. Holman, called the greatest forward in the country, Higgins, Burke and the rest of the visitors, lived up to advance notices. The score:
Loendi-27. Celtics-88.

Pitching Staff Shapes Up Strong as First Week of Training Ends; Fourteen Players Report
WEST BADEN, Ind., April 12. — The A. B. O's ended their first week of spring training here Saturday. Corbett's arrival completes the squad, which is to report, numbering 10 men.
One noticeable change in the line-up of the club is the switching of Charleston from its outfield to first base. In the daily practices, Charleston has been playing the ball like a veteran.
Although Charleston was, without a doubt, the greatest outfielder in the game, little will be lost when the playing strength of the team is considered. Shively, one of the greatest one-run getters in the game and a natural hitter, will take advantage of the other position will be taken care of by Washington in left and Holloway in right.
With Charleston, Day, Williams and Blackmon in condition, very few bails will sift through to the outfield. Although curve balls were not permitted during the first week's practice, one thing is sure. Every pitcher in cann can throw. Newsam, a product of the sand lots of Indianapolis, is the speed king of the stuff. Cooper, coming from Memphis with a strong bounce and is sure to be a winner, Corbett was introduced over the circuit last season while a member of the Pittsburgh Keystones and needs very little introduction. The veterans, Jeffries and Dismukes, round out the best pitching staff in the league.
Brown, the kid catcher from Birmingham, Ala., seems to be the best bet at the present time for first string catcher. He is a natural receiver with a true arm and plenty of pep. Ballinger, although showing great ability as a thrower and wily show in rounding into form, but will be given plenty of time to show the best there is in him. The club will break training camp next Saturday, playing in Dayton, O., Sunday the 15th.

The All-Star Basketball Quintet will soon be seen in action against the strong Y. M. C. A. tossers at the Temple Casino.
Burry has proven to be an asset to the "Y," which has been seen in their latter games, by his absence in the lineup, owing to sickness.
Saratoga did not appear to be on quality with M. C. A. Quintes in the penalty to the Loenid-Celtic game at Temple Casino last Thursday, as Saratoga was defeated by an overwhelming score.
Edgar Thompson will be represented on the diamond this season with a light first-class team. The same players that made an exceedingly remarkable showing by winning the junior championship has year will again be with the team under the management of Wm. Green.
The Colonial A. C., who had a very good record last year in baseball are about ready to fall in line for this coming season. Manager James Johnson would like to get in touch with the Industrial League president.

Union Defeats Va. Normal TiesHoward, StopsLincoln
Among the spectators at the Loenland-Perth Amboy game Sunday were many Pittsburghers.
Georgia Fall, who covered shortstop for Lincoln Giants last season, is not included in the Lincoln lineup this season. George played great ball last season, but got in bad with the "powers that be." George has a fattering offer from Harrisburg Giants which he will likely accept.
Douglass, the Royal Giants' big first baseman manager, is considerably huffed over the desertion of his second baseman, Jackson, to Harrisburg Giants. Douglass has enlisted the aid of other high-blowing men, Nut Strong, and Mr. Trothers, of Harrisburg, will get little consider.
Union Defeats
Ties Howard,
Opening Week of Baseball Ends With Great Record for the Richmond, Va., Team.
(Special to The Pittsburgh Courier)
By C. L. Washington, Jr.)
RICHMOND, Va., April 13 — The 1922 Champion Va. Union University College state ball team defeated the fast Va. N. and I. I. club Monday before a monster crowd, 9 to 8, in 10 innings; played to a tie with the swarthy Howard nine Thursday, and vanquished the much-touted Lincoln University nine, who had just capped five straight games, Saturday, to the tune of 12 to 5.
The long, but keenly contested clash with Va. Normal Monday was brought to an abrupt close, when Edgar, smashed on the first hit, six innings, in the tenth, scoring Wilson. Brasch's fielding for Union bordered on the sensational. Epps invorted around shortstop for V. U.
The Filipino Sprinter Looms as Dangerous Rival to Paddock.
NEW YORK, April 12—A formidable rival for Charley Paddock and other American sprinting stars has been uncovered in the Philippines, second in the United States authorities in Manila. The new track sensation is Fortunato Catalon, an 18-year-old high school youth, who was credited with running 100 yards in 9-4.5 seconds on three consecutive days at recent track events. Catalon was 1923 and 1924 figures. Five watches clocked Catalon each day and several of them caught him in 8-3-5 seconds, the world's record. Catalon, who won the 100 and 200 yards at the Far Eastern games in 1921, will be sent to the Olympics in 1924 to test his speed with American and European stars.
George Terry, well-known local baseball follower, has announced that he will manage the Fairmont Giants of Fairmont, W. Va., this season. The Fairmont Club is one of the strongest in West Virginia, and it is believed that the addition of Terry will leave a valuable acquisition. Terry will leave Pittsburgh the latter part of this month.
"ROBBED," ASSERTS SIKI OF BOUT WITH McGhee
PARIS, April 12—"I was robbed," said Battling Siki, the Senegalese fighter, who has returned from Ireland, while referring to the fight in Dublin, in which he lost his light heavyweight championship to Mike McGhee.
"He never go to Ireland again," he said, "unless I can cross the way of England. I lost so much weight during the ocean trip to Ireland and back that I am now a middleweight."

Some time this season something is going to crack. Everything is rosy now, but the first and sixthteenth is not going to mean anything to some players if the club owners continue to outbid each other for star players.

The game was watched and dan-

Lewis was relieved in the last stanza, allowed only 1 hit. He got wild in the fourth period, and Merritt ascended the mound. Errors: proved costly to both teams, but some could be attributed to the slippery field.
In the third Eckert Eckert made a sensational catch, robbing Johnson of a possible triple. Langrum, of the visitors, hit for four bases, and Boffman by his timely hit in the final inning made possible the tallying of the tied Union.

ME hour was seven. The morning air was crisp and invigorating; the inevitable May cold spell was over. Jacqueline reclined on a couch in her beautiful garden, sitting abstractedly at the gold fish darting among the green the depth of the pool. The dinner had continued late the night before at her time, leaving her in a rather peevish mood. Among the guests had been a captain just from a voyage in the seas far north, and he had told wildly-engrossing and mysterious lies to the guests. A famed philosopher had also attended the dinner and he and Jacqueline had quarreled. When he retired dawn had already kissed the sky, and the breeze entered her room was feverish. Haunted by the straggles of the captain, she had been unable to sleep, so rising nights had descended into the courtyard.

At the foot of Jacqueline's couch a grayowl, Seligir, her favorite which had been captured when she young by one of her admirers. and her favorite, were inseparable her accompanied her on her long joung joints. There was a canopy contrasting with the darkly darkly beauland the wolf, voluptuous and tempersed, and glowing eyes aloof to those of his mistresses. Angel or devil, or both; this woman was no child of Eve, the mother at all. White teeth shone in her little dimples came from each movement she mouth, and brown of her skin. From time to time she lifted a hand in snake-like motion and her thin, silk apparel quivering, she dreee. The Wolf did likewise in deep growl. She paced the antique running her hands touch her hair with increasing stride. Her actions excited the which moved softly and charmed her. The animal it showed it looked in positively up into her face, the tops of its eyes burning like emrals. He was ever alert to protect her.
"Why all the emotion, Jacqueline?" Jacqueline turned and, faced her elderly companion, who stood in the doorway. "Tatip p of philosopher who atalled the dinner last night is an int to all women!" she retorted. "Tatip him, and the insinuating in the heart engages woman and states her own opinion." Now, dear, I wouldn't work my up so over the foolish theory of philosopher," advised Rose, whose writess at all times was soothing any disturbed mind; but on this he fell short. Jacqueline turned upon her furiously.
"Are all women' cattle—creatures of love and philosophy, vessels for the hearing of children, unorthy of confidence, incapable of spring love, fit only as domestic bridges to look after men's households and wash their linen? Holy be to a breeding chatter! they are not to be a breeding chatter! men more than this, a future more vast and beautiful than any we have yet turned of. long for such a thing! that fame is there for a woman? even though they give us station life; it is in order that we become structures of their pleasure!" Once placed her arms around Jacob's shoulders and said to her, "restrain her pose after affection." "You must that you have it is quite true; but there is no help for it as yet, while the brute man still rejoins. Why not contort yourself with life as it is?"

THE hands of the clock neared ten. A bell sounded softly, but very distinctly in the rear of the mansion. An attendant hurriedly opened the vast doors; a man stood there. Apparently he was worried and distrust, his manner perturbed and unnatural. Silently and without apparent notice, he stared at the crested him. He was slender, dexterous in movement and very handsome.
He passed into the room where Jacqueline loured on a luxurious sofa. He eyed her for a moment, as though contemplating, then he spoke: "Howdy, Jacqueline?" She did not answer—only stared at him perturbedly.
"What a woman!" he thought. She was not too tall, with smoothly rounded busfs and hips, and long waist, all well displayed by her perfectly fitting gartens. Her face was slightly flushed. Her hair was dark, prominently outlined under thin silken lids. Her hair was combed low over the ears.
He selected a comfortable chair and seated himself.
Jacqueline steadily gazed at him. The innocence had fied from her features and the big eyes flashed warningly. A change had coarsened her like a puff of air on a stool. While she dangerously held her lids dropped dangerously and her lips curled. She spoke:
"Why did you return? I asked you never to enter my house again!"
"Jacqueline," he exclaimed, springing from his seat. She held out her hand at arm's length to stay him. "No, do not touch me, please," she said quietly. Her voice lost its hursiness instantly, her lips thinned. Never was a woman so cloquent, so the transformations in her features—a characteristic allotted to a few.
She had loved to play with him in the former days, to work upon his passions and wished the girl note his heartfelt variety from tenderness to flipipancy, from anger to delight, and, at her bidding, to see the pale cheeks glow with love's fire, the eyes grow heavy, the keen lips seek her kisses. "He 'looks so spoiled animal,' she reflected, "and animal was very dangerous one, too!" She knew she was cruel—she wanted to be—it satisfied the clamon and turmilow within her, while she also, felt that the sooner he knew and the colder it left him, He had almost forgotten her love him. He had almost forgotten fear—of becoming a weakling to the whims of man had driven her to request of him, never to enter her house again And, too, his desire of her was no different to that of other women sequentially, and the belief was assured him.
"I despise you, and the quicken you get out of my sight the better," she-could not note the effect on remark on him, however, as she spoke the door opens and the head of Rose open, then retired in with anglories.
For an instant Raymond stood quietly—quivering, while the light died out of his face. He gulped; he straightened his face; he controlled his agitation, but he could not send the color back to his face. Then a remarkable change came over him. He laughed and walked to the door, laughing even louder as opened K. As his handsome figure framed the doorway and gazed silently into it for the space of a moment, then, again, he laughed and slammed the door behind him, leaving the echoes of his laugh ringing through the house—laugh that contained a horrible interpretation.
Jacqueline shuddered and flew into a rage; Seigir darted under the sofa and peered out frightenedly at his mistress.
THE clock chimed twelve. Jacqueline stirred upon her sofa. She could hear Seigir heavily breathing in sleep at the foot of her sofa, and the laughter of servants
After a spell of silence with a sick impatience she clasped her hands and wrung them supplicatingly starward: "Is there such love or contentment in life or death as may feed

Day By Day In Every Way We're Getting Crazier and Crazier
(Zoe Beckley in New York Mail) "At the present rate of increase in neurosis and insanity it is calculated that in less than 200 years there will not be a same person left in America."
We were startled to hear Frederick Pierce, psychologist and writer, make this statement the other night at a lecture. Next day we padded up. So Mr. Pierce stuck up, "Oh, there are lies in bad," he said when we had told him we wanted details in his statement regarding wholesale physischiz. "That is, there are remenesis. The main thing is to wake up the brain, it is that we are going crazy wholesals. The statistics are available to everyone." Mr. Pierce went on to say that the cause is not far to seek. Invention has developed so fast, profession has grown so mindful minds, the chancellor on the plaid shaw, they simply burst trying to adapt themselves to all of them.
"You see," says Mr. Pierce, "the human machine has developed very little in the stimuli of the capacity to receive and direct the stimuli of environment.

Airplanes, radio, telegraph, telephone—the telephone in the busy person mad—the movies, wireless, motor cars, skyrifting, advertising, multitudinous theatres, multitudinous business enterprises—all these things make so much fun. We are helplessly swimming." "A hundred years ago, or even fifty, life was not like this. It has come with fearful suddenness. Fearful because we are still using the same technology with it. Public spirit or 'herd spirit' demands that, willy-nilly, we receive and respond to all this.

The Same Old Story
"You're a great little wife, and I don't know what I would do without you." And as he spoke he put his arms about her and kissed her, and she forgot all the care in that moment. And, forgetting it all, she sang as she washed the dishes, and sang as she made the beds, and the song was heard next door, and a woman there caught the refrain and sang also, and two harts were happier because he told her that sweet old story—the story of the love of a husband for a wife. As she sang, the butcher's boy who called for the order heard it and went out wistful on his journey, and the world heard the whistle, and one man hearing it thought, "Here is a lad who loves his work, a lad happy and contented."
And because she sang her heart was mellowed, and as she swept about the back door the cool air kissed her on each cheek, and she thought of a poor, old woman she knew, and a little basket went over to that home with a quarter for a crate or two of wood. So, because he kissed her and praised her, the song came and the influence went out and out.
That is the way of Love. Like a pebble thrown into a pool, the circle of its influence goes on widening and widening until we know not where it ceases. In fact, it never does cease. A kind act, a word of merited praise, a kiss, a warm handsake, the simplest demonstration of love, in the home or out of it, goes journeying down the ages, weaving itself into the warp and woof of human life and human history.

(A True Story of the Way Couples Meet and Part)
BY CHANDLER OWEN In the Magazine
(Copyright The Pittsburgh Courier Publishing Company, 1923. All rights reserved)
“People anticipate more joy from marriage than it can give. The pleasures of anticipation exceed too often the joys of participation. We expect too much and get too little. Besides, the attainment ends the desire longer to attain that particular thing. “This means that love will often lead to marriage and the marriage will more frequently end in divorce.”
A principle which should be kept steadfastly before us is that a less desirable new object may be more desired than a more desirable object of which one has become tired. To illustrate: A charming woman sees her husband with a very ordinary woman. She is shocked; her pride wounded. She cannot explain it. Again a man of distinction who provides a fine home for his wife and dresses her in the height of style will sometimes find her flirting with a veritable tramp—probably a panderer. Is this because the wife, in the second case, does not love her husband, or the husband, in the first place, does not love his wife? Not at all. It is frequently simply because they are different.
ironing, cleaning, etc. Besides, there is the generally liked catering phase in the above mentioned with the husband. Your work well; you may go to another. If you dislike a restaurant, you may select its competitor. Not so with a wife. She may haul or jail her husband into court and make him pay under penalty of imprisonment. The wife is not merely working; the feel that one must do so some catering to hold a husband or a wife.”

Yes—for imity, electricity, water, fire—has much of it, not yet too little too much proximity may little absences, hence absence means too the proximity. We must avoid extremes. We must adhere to that happy ones. Absence from loved ones—wives, husbands, sweethearts—must be tempered with sanity, is like varying the temperature of the chicken it is. Laying off from it too long may completely destroy the taste for it. Herein lies the principle of dealing with narcotic victims. By keeping the drug from the diet sufficiently long, lose the taste of it. Laying off the taste of it. Is this queer? Of course, not. It is the exact working out of the La Marekian principle: An organ increases with use and diminishes with disease. Marcel felt it was wrong to say he was over-exercised and thereby injured. Overwork is as bad as disuse or under-exercise.
We have another theory about absence as a wrecker of the marriage institution. We do not believe the difficulty rests altogether in the too great absence of the husband the wife, or from the wife. We think the difficulty comes with the too great propinquity, nearness or presence of somebody else during this absence. Here lies the menace of frinds. How many men have come to the husband (the husband's) best friend? How many women have found the magnet which drew off their husbands was their best girl or woman friend? Is there anything strange about this one's friends chiefly are around his contact with wives or husbands. And if—as in the case of natural enemies like cats and dogs, or cats and mice
—friendships grow up from contact—how much more likely is it that natural friends should become close to each other through close association.
MOREOVER, the prohibition of an act creates the desire to perform the act prohibited. We want what we are not supposed to have. Tell us not to take and you have stimulated—intensified—increased our desire to get that prohibited thing. According to convention and law, one is not supposed to ever wear a woman's husband. Therefore, everybody wants to do just that thing which is prohibited.
There is nothing unusual about the desire for another's wife or husband when viewed on the basis of property. Wives and husbands are property in a very real sense. Richard T. Ely says: Property is anything which may be bought or sold. Both wives and husbands are bought and sold. We en usally ask: Is the man able to care for me?—that is, can he buy me? The men, too are asking: How much money the woman, the buyer, the seller. When this is not true, both are jart buyer and part seller—each is exchanging with the other—each which he wants for something which he does, not possess. This constitutes a sale.
People generally covet the property of another. Hence the case of coveting human property in wives and husbands.
When one's property is coveted, he has to water it, guard it—he has to protect the investor is powerful. This fear of the loss of one's possessions is jealousy. It goes out against the person loved, and the person about to take the one loved. Frequently it is directed against both. We observe this in murder of both the mate and the paramour by the other mate—whether wife or husband.
The manifestations of jealousy come both before and after marriage. The more fatal and severe the jealousy comes after marriage. Why? Not because love between the parties is greater. Marriage lessens than. But the idea generated by the social convention—that one's husband or wife is his property—carries with it the right to protect this property and to maintain hold on it. Even by force. And the legal and religious sanction to title in a man or a woman.
Now, married women, desire other men who are not their husbands, and other men desire these married women. Married men desire other women who are not their wives, and another woman who is not their wives. Generally, however, wives will not permit other women to have their husbands; nor will husbands
permit other men to have their wives. And insomuch as the law will help married persons to protect their property, there arises the necessity that to secure property in other men's wives and other men's husbands, there arises the worth or importance that is, doing by fraud what cannot be done by force; doing overly what can not be done overly; doing secretly what cannot be done openly. How is this done? Oh, a man's wife, through a sort of premeditated accident, meets a man's wife. It turns that the two got seats together, which placed them side by side. They choose to take lunch at the same hour and at the same place! What a pleasant surprise when they meet — "so unexpectedly," as Bert Williams would say. She decides to stroll in the house, to hold a volleying at the same place and at the same place. He starts to call his business place on the phone, when lo! the operator gives him this: woman's number. "Wrong number" but right; plenty, yet since he has it, he will exhale a word. If it is unsafe to write letters to the house, why she will get a named name, or some friend can be found who will receive mail for her. Sometimes he may risk calling the house. If her husband is there and it is inconvenient to talk, so soon as she catches his voice she will reply. "Wrong number." That means numbering the house. Occasionally a foot slips, but the affinity has become quite a fixture in the life of the modern city. And, oh, how the telephone does help out!
MARRIAGES are increasing, but divorces are increasing more rapidly. Inventions are growing at a greater pace than either. What has that to do with marriage and divorce? This: Every new household invention militates against monogamy — whether it be mechanical or social. Factories make shirts better, better fitting and cheaper than the housewife. They wash and iron clothes, but they put on buttons, darn socks, patch and fix your shirts. Restaurants feed cheaper, cleaner, better cooked food, on the phone, than the average prince. They make a certain breakfast hour, but is served according as it suits his or her convenience. The private home has been socialized, through the hotel and apartment house. Rooms are kept clean, and instead of each family having a kitchen, bellman, waiter, porter and combine in hiring one. It is economy—it is cheaper.
Electric devices, dish washers, etc., vacuum cleaners, carpet cleaners, curtain stretcherers, lessen a wifi network with a wifi needs to give to the home.
Inventions are time savers. They are generators of leisure. The more leisure men and women get, the greater*opportunity* they have to meet other men and women. To meet other men and women, the greater number of*contact*, the greater number of*affairs* they will have, for*contact*; we have shown, is the key which, unlocks love's door. Which means that each new invention helps break up the home. Witness the greater*diversity* among the rich of both sexes where wealth affords the leisure which results in amorous meetings.
As civilization advances, too, both man and woman rely less upon the other. She has economic independence. She goes to the factory, teaches school, works in some line, makes her own money, and then educates her own children. So does he. And the law of population: *Population* increases inversely proportional to intelligence. In other words, people of little education have many children, while people of much education have but few. The wealth of Harvard and Yale graduates is one and a half children.
What has this to do with divorce and marriage, you ask? This: children are a strong bond, a tie between husband and wife. When children usually greater indulgence — a larger degree of tolerance with recognized wrongs. Add to this the passing of a sense of mutual dependence. For instance, woman is no longer dependent on her husband's substance and he is no longer dependent upon her for care of the home, cooking, washing.
ironing, cleaning, etc. Beside, there is the generally liked dressing phase in the above mentioned utilities. Unless one laundry does your work, you will not be able to you dislike a restaurant, you may select its competitor. Not so with a wife. She may haul or hire her husband into court and make him pay under penalty of imprisonment. (We are not overlooking the feet of the man who holds the woman to hold a husband or a wife.) PROSTITUTION, also, is undermanaging monogamy. Without giving upon a discussion of its matters or demurials, it is a social institution which has the same relation to social evolution that the change from the chattel slave to the wage slave has had. The man did not care to keep a slave when he was not working, but would profer to hire and fire him, under the wage system, according to his needs — so the man does not want to keep a slave. The man did not care to buy and use the woman according to his needs. Again, just all the employer, under the wage system can select varieties of labor, according as they best suit him — the man, under presstition, can select varieties of labor, but suit him. In each case the buyer of services has no responsibility beyond the period of use.
Then, too, the modern man is trying to save time. Time saving is the force wielded by the flapper — and the prostitute. They save time and remove uncertainty—the latter and other advantage which the flapper was wily older women and more modest ones genuinely hate the flapper.
The woman, too, has a side to this prostitution. She can get rid of men easily when she no longer wants them — and women are as much bored by men they do not want as men themselves have had dying. How are prepared to give a new, more comprehensive definition of prostitution. It is the socialisation of biological (sexual) gratification. What then is the future of monogamy? Will the marriage institution survive? Is divorce anti-social? The latter question can best be answered by asking a few additional questions. Is the rotation of crop beneficial? Is it beneficial? Or is it not beneficial to both? Is variety in food diet beneficial or deleterious to health? Is general knowledge, comprehensive information, injurious to the mind? Or is it developmental to the mental faculties?
The obvious answer to these questions is that rotation of crops is good for land and vegetation; variety in diets is an aid to health and alimentation; and comprehensive information is strengthening to the mind. Divorce is simply a popular opportunity for question of the art and crops for change of biological diet, for securing a more generous and comprehensive knowledge of emotional taste.

SPORTS OF ALL SORTS
Owing to the rainy weather wished upon our city last week, St. Lluvia handed the newly organized Tate
Stars a three-day setback n getting down to hard work of their training sessions.
Manager Claude Johnson and his team finally finished their uniforms last Friday and started their spring practice at Tate Field. The diamonds were covered with mud, thereby handing the anxious warriors another setback; but through setting up exercises and drills until late in the afternoon. It was not until Saturday morning that the Tate's received their real workout. This consisted of dolling for an hour and was followed by fielding and batting practice.
Many Changes in 1923 Lineup of Cleveland.
When the 1923 Tate Stars take the field against the Tellings next Sunday, the local fans will be startled by the numerous new faces which will make up the Stars' lineup. The infield will "consist of Bengal Warriors, bengal Warriors, bengal Warriors from Pittsburgh; Manager Johnson at second, "Pete" Cordova; the Cuban Flash, at short, and "Boots" McClain handling the third station. The outfielders will startle the home folks with their rabbit-like speed, for Wade Johnson, for Dave Gravy in the 1923 Tate Stars, Drew Downer, former Pittsburgh speed merchant, taking care of the left-garden, the Tate's have one of the speediest outfields in the league, and they promise to make all ily balls look easy. "Easy" Wilson will be reserved as an outfielder to stem in the game in the first half of the above mentioned members.
The batteries will be the strongest ever presented to Fifth City fans, with Brannanham, McCall, McClure, Strong and Wade, Johnston, the only players exhibiting their fast ones, curves and slow hits across the plate to "Texus" Barnett, the sensational catcher received from Pittsburgh Keystones during the winter months. Barnett will be assisted by Ewing Giant, the second Taylor two years ago, and later proved to be the most promising catcher in colored baseball.
In the above story we have told you who the new Tates are and take it from us, the Tates will have their season in the year that they have ever experienced since their organization; that is, if the spring training exhibitions have any bearing on the outcome of the team in mid-season, for at this early date we are certain the Johnson team will give any local club a stiff hit.
Plenty of Speed to Locals
Hark! Yo fans and readers. You will not witness any slow fielding or sound sleep base-ground hits as the youngest and fastest players in the game today, and on the collective ability of the team, we do not hesitate to say that the local nine should have an edge on the opponent's speed, to speed, is essential in winning ball games, when base-running is needed. Not only have the Takes abundance of speed merchants, but also some brainy ball players who use the ball well. Well, fans, let's get our lungs oiled up for the opener Sunday afternoon against the Tellings; and help the boys carry home a victory to stay in the game. The "Courier" will be on sale at the park and the game will be covered by its scribe.

Cincinnati, Ohio
The Lenten Season has been wonderfully observed by members of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church. Never before in the history of the church has there been a better spirit of Christian devotion. Ree. Eileen is to be appointed for his earnest results of years of consecrated service to the people of Cincinnati. The Bible School has improved greatly during the past few months. Miss Fagus, Miss Friason, Dunlap, Mrs. Owen, Mrs. Elliott, Mrs. Thomas, Mrs. Bristol and many other church workers are making dems of the school real. The program on Easter Sunday morning, given by the children was the best ever witnessed at the regular school hour. Many little boys and boys were made happy on Easter Monday evening by a group of School girls and the leader the leader. Miss Fagus. The of Miss Fiarson's class are to be commended for their part in the Annual Community Exhibition and musical at East High School last Wednesday. Miss Mary Ward and Mr. Edward A. Wade were the guests of the day and they enjoyed a very delightful evening. Miss Mary Ward is the recipient of many social circles while in the city. Wedding bells will soon ring out its sweetest melodies. St. Andrew's social is eagerly watching for the event. Congratulations are being extended to Wade. Wade Mary Ward of their engagement. The time in which the wedding is to take place has not as yet been announced.
The court sessions this year in Cincinnati have far overrun the season. In game after game the Peerless has come out victorious and yet some team arises that wants a chance at the title. In April at the Ninth St. Y. M. C. a gym, between the Peerless and Norwood A. C., another of the star white teams about town.
Last Monday night the Peerless team defeated Xenia, which is one of the year's Old Defender Five. The game was fast and exciting. The crowd was large, but it could be seen that interest in the cagers was wanting and that sports are now turning to the daimond and the turf as outlets of enthusiasm. There was constant danger of 'the Xenia lads coming from behind, and the easy step of the way Ward and Butter starred for Cincinnati and Xenia, respectively.
Last week the Excelsior team won the city basket championship over a wide field and hard playing. The Excelsior and Rock Anderson contenders in the tournament. In all their seven teams contesting and there was some in individual playing as well as some fine exhibitions of team work. The final game was for told what would have been the outcome. A close game is hard on the referee and Rock Anderson surely caught it. The final whistle found Excelsior leading by one point, 24-33. On Monday night local fans were game for it was between the Excelsiors and the Sinton clubs. Many expected the latter to stage a comeback, but they were disappointed for the Excelsior trounced Sinton in such a manner as to leave no room for a crowd out to this next game, but enances and interests point the other way.

In response to an invitation to sit with the performers and managers at the opening of the show on March 28, the Page picked up his pencil paper and a Pennsy ticket, and wrote to the show's executive director. On the train we met H. D. Collins, the Putnam Building agent, and we met the director of the city. Between 11:45 M. and bedtime (rather late, we admit) we visited the star theater, where we found the director of the show, R. Ready, the theatrical editor of the Afro-American. At the time we were the manager of that subjection.

Englishman Raps Unfair Objections To 'Plantation Review'Showing in London
Nobility and Aristocracy Receive With Favor Spirited Speech at Dinner of Variety Artists' Benevolent Fund
At the annual dinner of the Variety Artists Benevolent Fund, in London on March 14, Sir Alfred Butt, who is responsible for the appearance of Harper and Blanks and the "Plantation Revue" in England, defended the colored artists most vigorously against the unfair and slanderous objections that have been made against them in that country. His speech was received with evident favor by the Lord Chamberlain and a group of England's most important amusement people, people who are high in the social scale of the land. A list of the guests sounds like a roll call of the nobility, so we may disregard the ravings of the folks who don't count much when the nobility and aristocracy so openly approve and feel satisfied that our artists will fare all right while there.
THE DUDLEY IDEA
(Demonstrations and Classification)
While its application has not yet been established, the Dudley Iden for stabilizing the colored show business by having the acts exhibit their wares before starting over the circuit for the season, and for classifying them according to entertainment merit and the value of the act as a box office "draw," firmly establishes the astute Sherman H. Dudley, one of the most practical shows on the age. The life offered to the joint meeting of performers and managers is a most practical one with details worked out in a most careful fashion.
subject to the坦市 and the坦市 before contracts. The names of ex-performer and tary of the Colore fit Association; T secretary; of the National of the National more, have been coni tion with the coni tion of supervis a position that w sufficiently attract incumbent from
The Dudley idea is briefly as follows: That a house devoted to demonstrating acts (the writer and this publication does not like the word "tryout house" filled as is the memory of the team of the former formers) operated at a comparatively low scale of prices, and underwritten by all the managers on the T. O. B. A. circuit who will profit by its results. A weekly donation of five dollars each is asked from them. Any part of the fund thus created is donated as would any dividends that might accrue. The sum asked is certainly quite cheap insurance against bad programs.
A stage manager for the demonstration theatre, to be a man of unquestioned experience, and in whom the confidence of the performer is expected, is a fact that he has been selected by them. This man to view each and every act, suggest changes, expurgations, make any alteration which in his mature judgment will improve the act, complete, or rewrite a repetition of song numbers. A complete index on each act that goes out will enable him to protect the material of every act. This super-stage manager will classify acts as either A, B, or C, and in each case will carry the material in order with this classification. The nets will leave the demonstration house, where they have worked, not for nothing, as they have often done for agents before, but for a salary sufficient to allow for the week's maintenance, plus enough to provide for the performance. The same each act will be in accord with its just merit.
If, after going on the road, the reports of the individual managers, and the trade journal reports indicate either improvement or a "let down" approach, the following will be adjudged the unit. Contracts will be provided acts that will give them routes over the three sections of the T. O. B. A. and the P. & M. Circuit, so that acts will be given to the managers who will work, and house managers will know equally as far ahead, what to expect. The Unit system will keep congenial groups intact, and enable the betteler to have more frequent use of novelty acts. Variety will be obtained by routing two vaudouville units, then two tabloldi groups, the latter to be
subject to the same careful scrutiny before contracts are issued:
The names of Robert Slater, an ex-performer and the present secretary of the Colored Vandeville Benefit Association; Telfair Washington, secretary of the Colored Actors, anion and Grass Simmons, manager of the Mafia; the Theatre of Baltimore, have been good imitation with the committee for the position of supervising stage manager, a position that will carry a salary sufficiently attractive to remove the incumbent from any venal temptations. Other nominations are sought by the committee in charge of the matter.
A comprehensive knowledge of the colored show field, a sense of fairness, absolute honesty and the confidence of the profession are the characteristics that the successful man must possess.

A fresh, radiant skin is the first requirement of beauty. Dr. Huff's wonderful, new face very makes it possible to have one. The cost is little. Results are gained in 30 minutes. Bicep heads and pimples disappear after a single use. Dr. Wim. H. Huff Journal of Tissulax

It was given almost providentially to Doctor Huff to discover this safe and easily followed method of regaining wanted to obtain a new remedy especially adapted to the needs of the Race.

It would probably surprise many people to know how often lynchings mobs are composed to a considerable extent of men (and women) who诈 some citizen. Does this always asked as good citizen? Does this always asked as good citizen? Some particularly harrible crime has stirred to deeds unthinkable in calmer and more dispassionate moments? By no means. The spirit of mob violence has degenerated, if such a thing can degenerate lower than the point at which it starts to a stage where the most trivial incident can pierce the wall of soap-bubbly, and the merry-go-round anarchy in many States of the South As H. L. Mencken declared in one of his essays, lynchings takes the place of the merry-go-round, and offers a periodic relief from the tension of drab existence in Southern towns.
I well remember an investigation that I made in the extreme southern part of Georgia in 1918. A white farmer was getting, wealthy through the operation of a large plantation on which his labor cost $100 a year. He fixed pongee. This man's brutality made it impossible for him to hire negro hands, with the result that he formed the habit of paying the fines of migrants arrested for petty offenses in the county and making them work out their fines on his place. One of the farmers was forced to pay off a fine of $30, demanded a settlement. The farmer beat him.

Taken for a Federal Agent.
I reached the scene soon after the event-and while excitement yet ran high. The scene was in the heart of a prosperous community, with broad, fertile farms surrounding the small towns clustered together that make up the town. The main streets were well paved. The stores were well stocked. Most of the inhabitants could properly be classed as Georgia "crackers"—long, lanky, slow of movement and of speech, long-necked, skin tanned to a reddish-yellow hue, eyes small and set close together.
My own accent is sufficient Southern to enable me to ask questions within being thought an outsider. I would have believed I could long as I did not incur the suspicion of being a "Federal agent," that most feared and hated of all creatures.
On the morning of my arrival in town I casually dropped into the store of one of these general merchants who, I had been informed, was one of the leaders of the mob. At the time the store was free of customers. After making some purchases, engaged myself in a conversation with the manager of the audience by telling him how much I admired the marly spirit of the men of that town for teaching those niggers a lesson. Mentoring the newspaper accounts of the lynching I had read and confessing, somewhat shamefully, that I had never been lucky enough to be in a lynching. I led the way up to the recent affair and, with a smile, told all most immediately, offered me a box to sit on and a bottle of soft drink and then gave me my painstaking minute account of the trouble from beginning to end.
in man woman met her death, he slapped her right one. show I ever did see, Mister-you oughted seen that nigger wench fight and heard her how! when we strung to meet personally expressed a desire to meet personally and congratulate some of the other brave and fearless men who had conquered this fiercely fighting woman, he offered to have them come to the store that after the noon, or, if I didn't want that done.

he would tell me who they were.
After two days of this, they began
to get suspicious in the town. I had
seen a man in a cowboy hat that I was
resenting a real copryction in Atlanta,
but when pressed for details I
had been vaguely. One morning I
dropped in again to see the merchant
first time. EEs air was not so
friendly this time. I entered the store he fired at me:
"You're a Government man, isn't you?" "Who said so?" I countered. "Never mind who told me; I know 'em when I see you. I then retested what had happened since last I had talked with him, and I knew my own life was worth little if they found out who and what it was. Leaning over close to him, I whispered: "Don't tell anybody about it. You're the only one who knows it." I knew that within an hour at most everybody in town would know it; also knew the fear of Federal action the most effective protection I could have. An hour later I started back to the hotel where I was staying. As I was about to enter the door a colored man came up and asked to speak to me. With an air of great mystery he told me that he didn't know who I was, but he had just overheard me saying that if I was in town that night something was going to happen to me.
Out-Bluffing the Bluffers
Having been born and raised in the South, I knew instinctively two things: First, no negro living in such an atmosphere of oppression and fear in the South, I knew I had to send by somebody; second, the persons who sent him were white, wanted to 'get me out of town at once, but did not dare lay hands on me for some reason. For if they would they would have disposed of me if they had thought I was dangerous to them.
My best move seemed to be a little bluffing of my own. I had no need of any sort with me. I eyed the man, and he would have a voice as I could muster, said:
"You go back to the folks that sent you and tell them that the only thing I have to say is this—I have a damaged good automatic and I know how to use it if anybody tries to get hurt if somebody, is going to get hurt."
That night I did not take off my clothes nor did I sleep much. Ordinarily in such small places everybody is sleep at 8 or 9 o'clock, but on this night there was much passing and repassing of me. I found out afterwards that my grocer friend had spread word, just as I had expected, that I was an agent of the Department of Justice. They wanted to get me out of town before I secured any evidence against members of the mob, but they feared not harm me, as they feared dire consequences from Washington. I remained in town two days more, and secured closely wherever I went, but got the facts I went after and was unmolested. When I published, the account of the evidence in the hands of Dors, Dovsey, who was unable to secure action because of迟疑, the account of the advancement in the hands of the Advancement of Colored People, which is not particularly popular in the locality of Colored people, it has revealed the facts about it.
Last May I went to Tulsa, Okla. to secure the facts regarding the raci riots which resulted in the loss of property and the facts regarding the amount of much property owned largely by colored people. It will be remembered that the riot was the alleged attack on a white girl by a colored youth. After it was discovered that he had charge had no foundation in fact and the lawyer acquitted in the civil lawsuit court.
I reached the city from New York, while the excitement was yet over. I arrived in rival I met a photographer, who had worked for five years on the stupefied New York paper, and welcomed with affection arms when he found that I represented a New York paper. They tried to guard the town from attack, and it occurred to me to get my answer: my name, my age, and city inside the city. This was easy. Only three questions did I have to answer—my name, my age, and city inside the city. An escaped convict, a murderer, a thug, one of the members of the mob that had laid a section of the city inside, and that was enough, apparently. While we were waiting for assignment to one of the cars which had been stolen, night one of my fellow deputy sheriffs made the remark, "Now you can go out and shoot any niggers, and the law will be behind you."
A Ku Klin Threat in Tulsa
As we stood in the corridor just before the door, I saw a deputy sheriff in the uniform of a captain of the A. E. F., who had called me aside. It looked to me as though he felt he had seen me before, but was not sure where I was. He took me down to me as the Advancement Association's investigator of lynchings. Such recognition would not conduce to longevity or good health.
However, I strolled over to him and followed me and had surrounded me in a deserted corner of the jail, kept my knees from shaking, and at least tried to. He began without introduction or apology, looking straight at me with steely, unfriendly eye.
"You say your name is White?"
I answered affirmatively.
"What any you are a newsman man?"
Yes, I am representing the New Yorkers who you want to see my credentials!"
"Not but I want to tell you someone there's an organization in the South where, that doesn't love niggers very well. Don't ask me the name of the organization, come back into existence to fight this damned nigger Advancement association. We've got branches everywhere, every movement of the officers of
this bigger society and we know where every one of them is all the time. I knew he referred to the Ku Klux Klan, and I also knew that the "dunned association" officer of the "dunned association" as I could. I took out a cigarette while I was talking, and I kept my hand from trembling, and answered.
"This is all very interesting, but the story has even sent me into a jet!"
"as a fall inume we looked straight into each other's eyes. Then his fell. With a shrub of his shoulders and a half apologetic gesture, he let me know what was behind the riot, and his questions. Needless to say, his companions closely, as we drove through the desolate, burned area throughout the night.
"There's a Dam' Yeller Nigger!"
My narrowest escape was in Phillips County, Arkansas, in October, when I visited the tentative of a Chicago newspaper to get the facts regarding what was going on by negro farmers as teemants and share-croppers. Going first to Little Rock, I talked with the governor and other State and county officials. Then I went to the scene of the attack. The county seat, At Phillips County.
As I stepped off the train I was closely eyed by a crowd which crowded up to the room, glazing all arrivals with preface of casual interest. Within half an hour I met two shopkeepers, a restaurant waiter, and a ticket agent what my business was, why had I come here? I was asked to stay; and what I thought of the recent rioting. When I said I was tired, the shopkeeper relaxed, and I had little difficulty in getting the truth about my negro share-croppers had become part of being robbed year after year by dishonest landlords, merchants, and the mob whenever any negro dared protest, against economic exploitation, organization to make a great case. In U.S.' local courts, one of the tactics the attacker would use in relief for all negro farmers in the community.
The landlords and others had carefully spread the report thus far, and the people sore all the white people and seize the land," had thus worked up the over present mob spirit to the over present and had several deputy sheriffs in the meeting, of the farmers' organization, in a little colored church; a light, and followed, mobs had been held, and the slaughter of all the nerges had been

"Relative to the money I collected to build the church in Cape Town, South Africa. * * It is now on interest in a Trust Company and will not be available until April 7, 1921. I do not see the necessity of making such a desperate effort to collect that which is only about one fourth of the amount required to do the work. When this money is available it will be turned over to the Missionary Society from which I received it."
Bishop Vernon charges it is reported, John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the denomination with offices in Washington with holding up and r. issuing to pay out money appropriated by the church at the General Conference for South Africa Mission. Nobody did he fail to receive any of this while in Africa, Bishop Vernon says, but "he has given me first one excuse and then another." It is rumored that Bishop Vernon will hail the accused before the trial board of the church and demand that the $15,000 be produced.

Controlling Child Birth
About ten years ago, a woman was arrested for violating the laws of the land because she published something which suggested a means of controlling child birth. She says she was moved to issue her statement in printed form by reason of the plen which met her eyes when she visited certain sections of New York City and found mothers simply swamped with more children than they could possibly give attention, or feed and clothe. The woman was arrested, and her little journal was suppressed by the authorities.
This week, in the city of Albany, New York, there will be openly discussed the advisability of passing a law allowing certain information to be scattered among the people, looking to a regulation of child birth. Within ten years, the subject has met sufficient approval to find sponsors ready to make a fight for legislation which will permit the regulation of child birth.
Of course, the subject is not new. It was very much alive in England as early as 1877, when two very prominent persons were arrested and tried for disseminating pamphlets among the poorer class teaching them how to regulate child birth. The idea came from a Boston physician of some prominence—a Dr. Knowlton, who wrote the pamphlet under the title of "Fruits of Philosophy."
But this country never found any real followers of the idea until about ten years ago, when Margaret Sanger and her very associates, made bold to publish "The Woman Rebel." The bill now before the New York Legislature seeks to permit physicians to disseminate certain advice and information on the subject of birth regulation, thus taking the subject out of the realm of obscenity and placing it among the many kindred subjects now considered a part of the science of medicine. If the bill becomes a law, the prediction is that society will grow a new era of social welfare and racial purity.
President in Georgia
PRESIDENT HARDING, enroute North, stopped in Georgia long enough to throw out a little political hait in the form of "oratorical sop," intended to tickle Southernors. The President is not schooled in southern ways and thoughts. He never made a graver mistake in his whole career. The South is as much the South to-day as it was when Lee had to hand his sword to Grant. The South will be the South forever. Any changes to be made must be made by the North, and the time is not far when the North will find itself changing to meet the sentiment of the South, rather than the South changing to the Northern view. The South has an obsession, and can not think in terms of the North. It refuses to be taught any other view.
President Harding, and all other Northerners, might just as well decide to yield to Southern sentiment, if they hope to see a country united on political and social questions. The South lost the war of rebellion, but it proposes yet to prove to the North that the South was right, even in defeat. There will remain that conviction in the bosoms of Southerners, and if the North ever hopes to form any lasting compacts, political or otherwise, with the South, the North must yield to Southern views. When the North finally yields, some Southern author will write the book of the century entitled: "The Southern Idea Vindicated." It may require another century before the North yields completely, but yield it must. The South is hostile to every thought which entertains the slightest sympathy for the cause of the Federal Army. If the North would admit to-day that the South was right in 1860; that Grant forced the rebels to surrender by strength of money and man power, there would be a reunion like which this world never saw.
President Harding can never "son the South" with his "united country" oratory. The country is not united in the eyes of Southerners, and never will be united until the North admits that the cause of the South was right.
And the South uses the Negro as its convenient argument. The North must admit that the Negro has no business voting, holding office, attaining a high degree of intelligence through education, nor venturing to assert the slightest desire to be considered equal to other specimens of God's creation. If the North can eliminate the Negro from the plan of creation, if it can be agreed between the two great sections that the Negro is not even human, then the "united country" President Harding is talking about in Georgia will become a possibility.
As long as a Negro lives, there will be a solid South, separate and distinct from the rest of the whole world.
Thank God For A Man
When Dr. Urmy, the Bellevue minister, ordered the hooded members of the Ku Klux Klan from his church services on Easter Sunday morning, he merited and received a most hearty approval. The work of members who disrobed the Klansmen was as heartily cheered as was the pastor who rebuked the intruders.
But the happenings of the week which followed the incident have brought to light additional facts and the pastor is entitled to additional credit.
After the public press rebuked the Klan for interrupting the Easter services of Dr. Urmy, it appears that a committee from the Klan called upon the pastor by engagement, and tried to show him the correctness of their view. They tried to justify their disturbance of the pastor's services on Easter morning. They were in conference with the pastor for some time, and they explained their position fully, covering all phases of their workings.

WHITE

The Spirit Of Booker T.
The celebration of Founders Day at Tuskegee ought to become habitual with the institute and with Negroes generally. Tuskegee will live as an institution as long as financial assistance is available. We hope there will never come a time when sufficient assistance is not forthcoming. But there is something greater than the institute which should be kept alive forever. It is the spirit of Booker T. Washington, a living, throbbing thing; present and abiding in the life of the American Negro. That spirit must be kept alive. It was that spirit that gave us Tuskegee. It was the expression of that great soul that rose in brick and stone to do a new and a great work for a forgotten people. Negroes of the world owe it to themselves and their future to keep alive that spirit.
And Tuskegee Institute will not be the same to us as a people, nor to this country, if it ever loses the Washington spirit. It matters little who is charged with the responsibility of administration at Tuskegee. There is little significance to be attached to any personality connected with the institution. Men travel far to be present at Founders Day, not to be present at Tuskegee. Founders Day means to touch again the great spirit that gave birth to the idea. It is the idea that men worship; and the founder is remembere; for his idea. May we never be accused for forgetting so great a spirit as was Booker T. Washington. If Tuskegee should be wiped off the earth, there would still abide the father of the idea; and the longer Booker T. Washington is dead, the higher will rise the voices of men and women who believe in an idea properly expressed.
Thank God for the man who can sit in conference with the hooded cowards and then rise in public the following Sabbath and disclose the conference to the world. This kind of man is God's product. He is not afraid of masks, nor men who wear them. He gave a most impartial review of his conference with the Klan committee and without heat or passion, bias or impatience, he exposed the uselessness, the inconsistent methods, the hypocrisy, the un-Americanism of the Klan and its program. Perhaps, no man has ever so completely routed the Klan from its much heralded tenets of Americanism.
A review of the conference discloses beyond doubt that the Klan has no reasonable pretext for the use of hoods. If its mission be secret, the pastor suggested that other organizations operated in secret, but without mask. This suggestion was not met with any answer. It was unanswerable. The Klan is narrow in its conception; biased in its beliefs on the question of creation, prejudiced—and deeply so—on the question of race and religion. There is no room in America for such a spirit. If it thrives, America must perish correspondingly.
WHILE the American Negro has no voice in the government of his country, yet, until the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments are officially "scrapped," we ought to keep posted on the domestic and foreign policies of our country. As a matter of education; we ought to follow and study the changes in our country's policies. It is a part of the country's history, and we must know the history of the world, if we are to be prepared to share in the affairs of the world.
During the weeks recently passed, we have had opportunity to study the development of sentiment toward the League of Nations. We have heard the President of the United States ask for national support in his endeavor to have this country join the International Court. We have heard men like Senator Pepper of Pennsylvania, Senator Johnson of California and other students of foreign policy, express the hope with some predictions attached, that this country would become a member of the League of Nations in the near future. Senator Pepper says the members of the League must effect some few changes to suit the United States before this country can join. He even predicts that such changes will be made.
Democrats like the idea of joining the League because it will vindicate the Wilsonian idea. Lord Robert Cecil, the spokesman from England, is in this country on an "educational tour," seeking to find out just what are the objectionable features of the Covenant of the League which caused the political landslide to the Republican view in 1920. It is predicted that he will not find a real sentiment in this country against the League; but that he may detect an artificial sentiment. It has been said that the Republican party will join the League after the 1924 campaign, and to prevent the League becoming an issue next year, many are saying that the League can never again become a political issue in a Presidential campaign. The Democrats say something different. They hold that the people were led away from the League of Nations by a false tidal wave created by astute Republicans; and that the people will retire to the Democratic standard bearers in 1924, if the League is made a campaign issue.
Republicans claim they object to the Covenant as stated, but will join the League if the objectionable features are corrected. This, in their opinion, makes it impossible to bring the League before the people again as an issue, if the very evils they complained of are corrected. This is a very strategic position to take. The Democrats will have to resort to other subjects for an issue next year.
Meanwhile, the present administration is preparing for a national election. The issue will be the record of the Harding regime, and there is a little more than a year left to make the record what it must be before it can be placed before the voters as a campaign issue. While it is known to few people in this country, the one man who can and will make the record of the Harding administration worthy of the name, is A.W. Mellon. Mr. Mellon will simply tell the politicians to stand aside until he can restore prosperity in this country, and thereby make the re-election of the Republican administration possible. If the politicians will not listen to Mr. Mellon, they will have to listen to the voters next year.
If Mr. Mellon can give us p. prosperity, a satisfied citizenry, and a stabilized business all over the country, there will be no need of a campaign issue next year. Mellon, and not the League, will be the issue.
It took the pig iron district to give the K. K. K. a rough handling.
We hear that the Black Memories Monument will not be erected. Perhaps the Confederate Ladies could not find a white baby who would "nurse a black woman's breast"—for the Sculptor. Phew!
To Republican Speelbinders: Un-pawn your frock coats, emery-board your nails, moon-shine your voices, and read the life of Abe Lincoln, for there is to be an election—next year.
WHAT THEY SAID LAST WEEK
WHAT THEY SAID LAST WEEK
The Richmond Planet is busy with the Bank Problem just now, but we may hope for something with the "punch" in it when John Mitchell gets things going again. Luck to you, Mitchell, then man who keeps trying is the man worth while.
The Detroit Independent very pointedly asks: What about the "Million Dollar Fund" collected to lobby for the Dyer Bill? We hear the bill is to the introduced again by the same Mr. Dyer. Perry Howard, et al.
The Public Journal, Philadelphia, certainly hands Mr. Hill a few "hot ones" on the Separate School proposition. If Cheney survives the recent attack, it will deserve a medal. Mixed teachers in mixed schools is the cry in Pennsylvania—except at Cheney.
The Norfolk Journal and Guide has the War Department operating (on paper) in Hack's Neck, Va. The Journal and Guide seems to us to be just a little afraid of itself in the last few years. Has the K. K. organization been threatening the editor? Little more "pep," Brother Young; we need the steam to make the hill.
The Boston Chronicle comes to the assistance of our Pittsburgh minister, Dr. Urmy, who openly rebuke the Klan for marching into the church on Easter morning with the usual "offering." The Chronicle lends its approval in the following lines:
Courage in the ministry is not dead. When 16 Klansmen decided to walk into the service conducted by Dr. R. B. Urmy, of Pittsburgh, on Easter morning, they soon discovered that they were face to face with their match, for they were asked to retire. Challenging their right to disturb service, he asked them that their dislike of Courierism—these men love darkness rather than light—they chose rather to sink out of sight.
Every time, a courageous mission will inspire the lathy to courage. The brave men of the church followed the Klansmen outside the church and dealt with them roughly as they deserved to be handled, succeeding in a general scrimmage to tear away that men's dislike of the Klansmen by exposure. One outstanding fact is that the Kk Klux Klan wilts under the search-light of investigation.
Dr. Urmy gave the Klansmen a moral punch in the eye, when his drastic treatment of them, showed that the ministry cannot be muzzled to tolerance of this great evil by doing out a few dollars to the church. The ministers that have opened their hands to receive the collar of the Klansmen, have always done so by weakening the moral power of the church in the nation.
As to the premature announcement of the Harding Second Term campaign by Mr. Daugherty, we offer the editorial comment of the New York News. This little piece of warning, coming from an organ edited by an office holder, ought not unnoticed. But, as in the past, the Negro need not proclaim his politics so loud; it is known that he must be Republianism. Some may prefer to be nothing, rather than be Negroism. The present administration has produced. Listen to the New York News:
We do not believe that Attorney-General Daugherty was doing anything other than making a grand gesture when he announced the candidacy of President Harding for a renomination in 1924. Neither do we credit the reports of the near break between the two as the result of the announcement. The feeler was sent to the Senate and the senate acclaim not the salvo of cheers that was expected. The long sober second thought which is following will convince the powers that be in the party of one or two things—either that the announcement was premature or that Mr. Harding cannot be reelected. In the event that the latter conclusion is arrived at that still remains unquestioned, the sense summoned by the powers and we see to it that another and the progressive Republican becomes the standard bearer. The colored citizens of the country are deeply dissatisfied with the Harding administration to date. In no one of its portfolios has there been the avowed and militant friendship for the race which colored America properly expected. The attitude of the Harding regime in the Register of the Treasuryship, in the Walter Cooley House, is to recognize in anything like a fair degree the colored Republic of the North, in its jilly-white Southern policy in its do-not attitude on disfranchisement, on lynching and Ku Klux Klanism has left the colored citizen with a wounded, desperate heart.
The Washington Tribune does well in taking to task the Churchmen and the Washingtonians need well endeavored to collect money for the cause of Christ. "Chance tickets" are not just the thing in the House of God. Gambling is the same, the world over. The Tribune says, in part, the following:
Children returning from Sunday School of these churches last Sunday greeted their parents with this news: "Mother I want to buy one of the tickets for 75 cents, to the Convention Hall that is going to be given away there. Our church is giving the entertainment and I want to try and win the automobile."
"Chance" and "win" is the vernacular of lottery and the race track. Winning an automobile, or anything else, as to that, on a "lucky number" of an affair given by the Church of the Living God is not consistent with the teachings of that church nor of the Bible on which that church is based. The "lucky number" is what the square are looking for. The "lucky number" is the inspiration of the crap shooter. The "lucky number" is the food desire of the poker player that he may win the pot and the "lucky number" is the hope of every person who purchased a ticket to Convention Hall Thursday night, and the automobile was the "jack pot" given away by the two churches giving the pageant. What next?
The Baltimore Herald sent out a rich one last week. We reproduce it here for the benefit of those who love the real, untainted truth about any and all questions:
The meeting in Baltimore Thursday and Friday of this week of the Association for the study of Negro Life and History brings to this city a view of an organized effort of men of the race to discern the truth of the past. That we have no honorable place in history is because we have left it to other races to write our history.
History is always colored by the views and prejudices of the writer. And so long as the white man has the exclusive field of history and prejudice holds its sway over the human heart, the Negro's crimes and failures will be the only mention.

HARDING AND 1924
LEST WE FORGET
DISPATCHES from St. Augustine, Fla., tell us the interests are urging upon President Bush's priority of making the enforcement of law and order issue for the 1924 campaign. Attorney General Blythe the inspired mouthpiece of the administration, not much when he first suggested the self-succession of Practical politicians and men of affairs are concerned the benefence of law and order from a business from a human point of view. The abstract question rights makes no effective appeal to them. The one capital evinced little or no interest in the Dyer They saw no immediate dividends in it. Mr. Bryan fell from grace, used to place the man before the door the business motto is: "The man AFTER the dollar we ascribe to the word after its lexical meaning of order of place and importance, or in eager pursuit object of conquest. It is sought to make the issue capital and labor sharp and decisive. A plank of the open shop is ardently advocated. The spiritless evoked by the conflict between capital and jeopardizes the continuance of business prospering lynching of docile working men at Perrin, Illinois repugnant to law and order than the burning of the Cross Roads, Ga. The sacredness of human life in one case as in the other. But the one involves, and the other does not. The proposed Republic would safeguard the dollar at all hazzards, and we dentally protect the man as a necessary adjunct the grand old party of moral ideas has degenerated agency of business prosperity. The merchant plants the moral idealist. Alas, there is left no Roosevelt to unite the two in one comprehensive principle and interest.
OUR higher institutions of learning are expatriated or are financial re-enforcement. Fisk University has secured pledges on her $1,000,000 endowment fund. McHarry Medical already secured $1,000,000 for endowment, and is putting drive for a half million dollars more. Biddle University is to the extent of three quarters of a million, Howard University on the way with its half million dollar campaign for the eighth medical department. Wilberforce erecting a $100,000 Morehouse College at the University. Howard University has been greatly augmented in resources and enrollment since the World war. Secondary schools have advanced rapidly than the colleges. Washington and St. Louis have buildings costing over half million dollars each. Baltimore are erecting buildings to cost over a million dollars. Southern management is awakening the necessity of colored examples of North Virginia is worthy of great praise. On the material and philosophy is good progress and greater promise.
But, alas, there is an undertone of sadness and disappointment is especially true of our colleges and universities. They are arouse the aspiration and quicken the enthusiasm as they do in the more primitive and privative days of definite objection confuses the spirit. There is need of radical reform in our educational fabric. The old razor needs a new edge. The resident in our youth are not being awakened and quicken sense of racial responsibility and duty. We must locate the apply the remedy.
HON. OLIVER RANDOLPH, the only colored man in the New Jersey Legislature, has introduced and through the passage of an anti-lynching bill for the Asbury and Stevens, of the Pennsylvania Legislature working hard on a civil rights measure which they introduced after failure during the last session. His stances remind us of the importance of the Negro gaining its own representatives inside the government. The white man, at best, cannot be expected to feel incentive rights and wrongs of the race. The man who the shoe feels the pinch. If the race does not satisfy own interests it cannot expect the white man to them. At best he looks upon the sufferings of the altruistic aloofness. We need Negroes in the Congress United States as well as in the Legislatures of the states. Now is the time for Negro statesmanship to the next national campaign is going to be hotly The Republican party will be put to its wits ends to its ascendancy. Despite its apostasy from the faithful founders, the Republican organization is still the national political agency which the Negro can use in advancement. The Republican party needs the Negro needs the Republican party. There is mutual relationship. Our political leaders should begin to make effective arrangements with the powers that demands for 1924 should be formulated in 1923. If less to try to bind the party to any affirmative legislation such promise will hardly be fulfilled in face of partisan and sectional opposition. The lamentable the Dyer Bill should furnish ample warning. The given full assurance of appointive consideration President Wilson and President Harding, but the patronage failed to fruition in the fullness of time is more futile than pre-election pledges.
Our political leaders should demand of the local leaders the nomination of race candidates in heart districts, for alderman, state legislature, and member Congress of the United States. New York, Baltimore, delphia and Chicago should demand a Negro Congress the next campaign. Indication of what might be accord for the race through such representatives is seen in the compilishment of Randolph in New Jersey, and in life of Asbury and Stevens in Pennsylvania.
THE annual meeting of the Journal of Negro History was held many times since the attendance was greetingly and the form enthusiastic. The biggest difference in the form a race consciousness. A careful examination and recording of the while deeds and doings of the race conduces to this desirable Woodson is aither scholarly equipped with modern historical and methods of inquiry. He has devoted his life, and commenced powers to this worthy task. Herein he points out the function of the Negro scholar. There is no more involving scholarship than is to be found in exploiting the material situation and circumstances of the Negro race. If educated Me to avail themselves of the advantages of this field, white men can take away their crown.
JEUTENANT FLIIPPER has resigned from his assignment in the Interior Department following ample of his distinguished chief, Hon. Albert Fah hoped that he will find lucrative place in the engineer in which he is quite proficient. There exists a friend tween these two men which crosses the color line. Fah's efficiency also crosses the color line.
