Braun, when asked by a representative of The Pittsburgh Courier as to what he was going to do about the Stowe township affair, said: "I have ordered my men to Stowe township to investigate, first, the part, if any, the officers of the community had in the infamous "order" and to ascertain what action they propose taking in protecting citizens of the commonwealth in their constitutional rights. "I would suggest that the law-abiding Colored people pay no attention whatever to any such orders as are alleged to have been given by self-appointed guardians of the community's peace. The full power of the law of this county will be used to protect all citizens from violence. There is a proper way to apprehend any one charged with crime without molesting and intimidating law-abiding citizens." TOLD TO GET OUT WITHIN 24-HOURS Colored People of Stowe Township. Ignore Order of Vigilance Committee. There are still people among us who insist upon "perpetuating the cast-off rags of old Russia!" A "GO" order, issued to the Colored people of Stowe township Wednesday, ordering "every Negro to pack his belongings and move elsewhere within 24 hours," by a self-appointed vigilance committee of more than 200 men was met with calm intelligence! The order, which bears all the ear-marks of the Ku Klux Klan, followed the murder of Thomas Rowland, white, aged 75 years, and the wounding of his granddaughter, Edith Colter, aged 14, in West Park last Saturday night by an alleged Colored man. The committee visited him and sounded its warning and left with any show of violence, police say. In the meantime, it is known that the colored inhabitants will not move on as ordered. It was said today that the murdered警官 had not been apprehended and that he was a Negro. The township has been the habitat of many Colored people for several years and many of them are determined that they shall not leave their homes when they have always been peaceful and that the "go" order was imitated from the action of Mayor Cauffel, of Johnstown, who (Continued on Page 13, Col. 3) Honor Wins Over Tradition 1930 Miss Thelma Brown Named by Columbia University to Study in France.

Police say Mrs. Pope was sweeping the steps of her home when Clifton approached and started an argument. According to police the woman attacked Clifton with a broom, strikethrough in the face, when Fred Pope, aged 38, emerged from the house flourishing a revolver. Two shots were fired, one of which pierced Clifton's mouth and lodged in the back of the neck. The wounded man was taken to the Pamlico hospital where he died a few minutes later. His body was removed to the county morgue. Police are looking for Pope. Shortly after the killing a description of Pope was broadcast throughout the city.

A new angle in the murder of Elsie Barthel, 28-year-old nurse (white), of Carroll street, near the old Hussey Mansion on Center avenue, Saturday night, came to light yesterday, when rumor had it that the young woman was an expectant mother! Alonzo Savage, alleged confessed slayer of the girl, is said to have disclosed the fact in explaining the alleged "love tangle" the girl wanted him to "cure". Although the county detective office was incommunicable and the police would not answer any questions, it was learned from a reliable source that Barthel woman, near the Hussey Mansion, was in love with the young woman and then murdered, since there was suspicion of some conspiracy, it is said.

Home of Rich Virginia Man Is Attacked NORFOLK, Va., Oct. 11—Mystery surrounds the happenings in and around the home of W. B. Tran, wealthy colored man here, when he was attacked by attackers last Thursday night. Several shots were fired into Tran's home shortly before 12 o'clock and about an hour later, a cottage nearby was discovered in the house, to the ground, police were told. Kidnapping Attempt Fails About a month ago, an attempt was made by visitors who called at Trant's home about 11:30 o'clock at night, to take him away, but they were repulsed in their efforts by Trant's son, who opened fire with a shotgun when he went to his father's assistance on hearing his cries for help. The shooting last week, according to the county authorities was done with an automatic revolver. It is believed that jealousy over Trant's wealth caused the dastardly attack. After several bullets had been fired into the home, things quieted down. About an hour later, however, Trant and his son said they heard a car crash close by. They crouched on the floor of their home, as more bullets were pumped at the house. Suddenly, they saw the neighborhood light up, and discovered that a cottage nearby was ablaze. Trant Refuses to Talk The county authorities are not housed, and much toward tracing those responsible for the shooting up of Trant's home. Trant, himself, showed little disposition to talk, they said, when the first attack was made on him. Ky. Governor Grants Stay of Execution FRANKFORT, Ky., Oct. 11. — Governor Edwin P. Morrow Friday granted a stay of execution in the case of Campbell Graham sentenced to Tennessee for Mitchell Neal, an inmate bootleger, a year ago. The stay of execution is until November 12. the girl, who drives the illegal encamped shyer, according to detectives, from East Liberty to a house in the hill District, has been held by the police. Captain Leiff Leif intimated, it is reported, that he was not yet satisfied that Haul's pickup vehicle was evidence. Haul has told several stories which, police say, have not been checked up as true. New Developments These new developments cast a peculiar light upon the mysterious death of the nurse. The reported confession of Savage showed one of the most brutal slayings in the history of the count. The weak link, which was a reason for the alleged killing, is a reason for the alleged killing. Just why Savage murdered the girl after she gave him an envelope which he thought, at the time, contained $300, is a mystery. It is alleged the girl made the appointment with Savage, and went to meet him in the mansion of her own free will. Savage believed he was a "woodoo doctor" and could "cure" her of her trouble palls into nothingness when it is known that she was a practical nurse and familiar with the seriousness of her condition. It is also said that Savage's friends knew nothing of his girl, and that she was a girl bewitched by Savage's tales of superstition and believed that he could by "charm" relieve her of the "burden" which, if known, would mean disgrace? Or was there something more than a legendary story of a woodooo "attracting the girl" that man—fame that was kindled during the war at the same place of employment and that separation fanned into a seething, consuming fire? Explode "Voodoo" Theory All these questions, and, more, have been voiced, when the reason for the slaying is considered. Evidence points to Savage's connection with the murder, according to the "vodoo" theory, the explosion of the "vodoo" theory, which conjure as to others, as yet unknown, being implicated. It was the belief that Savage had not made a complete confession, or that the complete confession was not made public, it is said. The searching for a "Will Rodgers." He is the mystery man of the case since Savage declares the girl gave his name as that of the sweetheart responsible for the condition which prompted her to come to him for aid. Savage, according to police, the shoemaker Miss Barthel from the Hill district at 6 P. M. Saturday, and she made an appointment to meet him at the deserted mansion at 9 P. M. The Barthel girl was found Sunday morning on the driveway, under the potato pitcher of the Hussey Center's press street, her skull crushed beneath a 70-pound stonet. An ance, deuce and trey of diamonds and a five of spades found in two blood-scattered white envelopes beneath the head of the victim gave cictetives their evidence. Savage followed.

Kills Suitor Who Hounded His Daughter Ardent Wooer Disregarded All Warnings—Insisted Upon Calling on Girl. NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 11. William, Phepp, aged 22, was shot to death early Sunday morning in the hallway of his former sweetheart, Mrs. Nellie Morton, at 25 West One Hundred and Twenty-sixth street. Detectives told reporters that Phepp was killed by the woman's father, William Bradley, after his last effort to reconcile with Mrs. Morton. About 5 o'clock in the morning neighbors were aroused by the thundering crash of a revolver. Six rapid shots were heard. Suddenly a tall, slender man, staggered from out of the dark hallway of 23 West One Hundred and Thirty-sixth street, and without a whimper he fell flat on the stoop. From somewhere came two young women, who paused in front of the fallen man. They screamed and ran simultaneously. Their cries aroused sleepiness and a hundred windows were hoisted. Then, like a well directed band of music, a score of police whistles were blown. For ten minutes, the racket continued and then a uniformed officer was seen running toward the scene. One gimpess of a man lying in a pool of blood caused him to hail a taxi which was passing. But he was the Hamem hospital rescued the man had died. Next a little Ford car drove in front of the scene and detectives got out and instead of going to number 24 West One Hundred and Thirty-sixth street, where the shooting occurred, they went into the house next door. Inside of three minutes they came out with their prisoner, William Bradley, aged 46, who is alleged to have done the shooting. Disregarded Warnings From what could be learned from the police, Phepp lost his life when he refused to heed warnings of Bradley that he desist from forcing his attentions to his daughter, re-elected to the police. Phepp needles live at the girl's house and yas subsequently put out after an altercation. Phepp called, witness said, when he was refused admission to Bradley's house; he attacked Bradley who got a revolver and shot him six times. Phepp's lungs were perforated.

THEATRICAL COMBINE TO BE FORMED IN CHICAGO Proposed Circuit to Embrace Bigger Houses Throughout Country-To Offer High-Grade Attractions By J. A. Jackson. (In the Billboard.) NEW VORK, Oct. 11—E. C. Brown, the theater magnate and Philadelphia Banker, was in New York recently, and in an interview with the Page announced that the Douglas Theater in Baltimore, one of its holdings, would be again opened to the public on October 6. According to the same authority, Cress Simmons will be the house manager and the Izzy Weingarden's "Follow Me" show the initial attraction of the season. Mr. Brown stated that when the theater managers who are arranging a get-together for the purpose of effecting an organization that will insure attractions for the class, houses, that he would be represented in the interest of both the Douglass Theater in Baltimore and his Newport News, Vn. Theater, unless the latter should be sold. His Brooklyn Theater, may or may not be included, depending entirely upon the outcome of certain negotiations, now pending. Mr. Abe Coleman, of the Lafayette Theater management in New York is quite optimistic as to the outcome of the conference so far held in the interest of more certain and better colored road show bookings. A number of managers have indicated their desire to participate in the conference now being arranged for at Chicago. Mr. John T. Gibson, the important Philadelphia theater owner is very seriously interested which means that the most substantial immeasures have been given to the project, for this enterprising owner brings not only the prestige of immense capital, but showmanship of the first rank. Robert Levy whose efforts to establish a circuit proved unsuc- 1 THE PITTSBURGH COURIER Experience Unnecessary Be Independent cessful, has been interested to the extent of assuring that his Howard Theater in Washington, will be a member. The Globe Theater in Cleveland, is an assured member and the Koppin in Detroit, is certain to be represented at this meeting. Some unnamed interests in Pittsburgh are keenly interested in the progress of the movement and some surprises may originate in that direction. A group of wealthy colored oil princes, in Kansas City, have been interested to the extent that they are willing to underwrite the leasing of a theater in that city, if the persons now presenting attractions to egro audiences do not improve the offerings. Certain of the T. O. B. A. houses in the middle west have demonstrated that they are catering to a clientele that has a marked preference for drama and good musical, comedy and that is willing to pay for high grade vaudeville of metropolitan calibre. It would not be surprising if some of the border cities were found in the new line-up. A new theater in Roanoke, Va., two proposed houses in Louisville, and an avalanche of inquiries from one night stand white theaters in the adjacent territories gives reason to believe that jumps can be minimized and more time provided for shows over the proposed circuit than the uninitiated would expect. WOMAN MOTHER OF TWO CHILDREN Mrs. Mary Camitta Vattell, pretty dressmaker, and the mother of two children, was married to her husband early in 1919 by the Rev. Father Bishop, St. Philip's church. During the summer of 1920, Vattell met and became infatuated with Miss Enid Hodge, a pretty local girl, and on July 8, 1920, he deserted his wife and rented a "love cottage" in the heart of Harlem, where he took the other woman to live with. SHADOWED. BY AGENCY OPERATIVES The deserted wife found out where the pair were living and hired the Boulins National Detective Agency in the case. Last Monday morning, at 2:30 A. M., the detectives, accompanied by Mrs. Vattell, went to a rooming house in the fashionable section of Harlem. There they surprised the husband, and a woman who gave her name as Eva Henry. Mrs. Vattell immediately started suit for absolute divorce, alimony and support of her children: Music Won Her. But Couldn't Keep Her NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—Stirring Harlem musical circles, and following close in the wake of divorce and libel cases which have rocked New York's exclusive "400," came an announcement last week that Arthur Rogers, prominent musician, filed a suit for divorce against his wife, Ruth Rogers. A romantic twinge is given the story of how Rogers wooed and won his pretty wife over three years ago through his ability as a musician. But his business was the direct cause of his marital rift, it is alleged by his intimate friends, who said that his bride's flirtations with other men, while her husband worked in the evenings, ultimately led her to leave him in October, 1922. LEAVES FIRST TIME: COMES BACK AGAIN The girl left her home, but returned to her husband in February, 1923. Again she found that one lover was not sufficient, and in May of this year she left "without leave" again. A local detective agency traced her to an out-of-town city, but found that she paid occasional visits to the city, taking particular care that her whereabouts remained a secret to her husband. FOUND IN ROOM WITH BOSTON "BEAU BRUMMEL" On September 18, accompanied by the husband, detectives went to an apartment in Harlem and there found the wife asleep in bed with a strange man, who gave his name as Lee Powell, registered from Boston, Mass. It later developed that Powell was the "other man" in the case, and Rogers started action for absolute divorce. They Thought Him Colored, Result;1Dead NEW YORK, Oct. 11—Unfortunately for the barber who thought because of man possessed a swarthy skin he was an American Negro. The other barbers in that shop will be careful about whom they refuse to shave hereafter. It was said that a Porto Rican, named Julio Rodriguez, went into a barber shop and asked to be shaved and was flatly told that "we do not shave Niggers." When Rodriguez 'endeavored to explain that he was not an American Negro, he was told to go to a colored barber shop, three blocks down the avenue. "I have been to three other barber shops," said Rodriguez, "and I need a shave badly," he said. The hot tempered Central American became greatly incensed at the discrimination showed and fired at the barber who refused him. Then he wheeled on another who attempted to attack him from the back and shot him down, the bullet striking the barber in the temple, causing instant death. The ugly situation so frequently brought about on account of the inherent and wide-spread race hatred and discrimination in America makes this country the general laughing stock of other nations of the world.

Business Enterprises Among Negroes in the North We often read and hear of large numbers of Negro laborers migrating into the Eastern, Northern and Western States from the Southern States. But we seldom read or hear of the business and professional Negroes who are also deserting the South in as large numbers in proportion as the laborers who are leaving. In every Northern, Eastern and Western city, where there are any considerable number of colored people, business enterprises amongst them have more than doubled and in some places more than thirdduring the past six or eight years. These same facts prey on as regards the professional man and woman. Several very encouraging facts are noticed amongst the new comers, namely, the large amount of capital that they bring, with them, the thrift and industry that can be seen around their places of business and a higher order of business establishments than have hereofo been the rule amongst colored people. The common dives in the guise of poolrooms and saloons that formerly occupied nearly every corner in the colored districts have been replaced by meat markets, groceries, delicatessen stores; bakeries, lee cream parlors, gents' furnishing stores, shoe repair shops, nicely lighted sanitary restaurants, and in fact, nearly every kind of legitimate business. Contractors' offices for nearly every kind of an undertaking may be seen on every side of many of these business enterprises may be charged to prohibition. I think they may in a greater measure be credited to the higher business ideals amongst our people. Business has kept pace with progress along other lines. These newcomers have tended in a great many instances to stimulate the older citizens to greater efforts, and the newcomer has, in turn in many cases, been amazed by the seeming great success that the older citizens are making in business and has accordingly been urged by their examples to make greater efforts. This loss to the South of millions of dollars of capital is gained by the North. And sooner or later these great changes will tell on the South, for if there is anything that the South needs, it is an abundance of ready capital and satisfied laborers. Without these two elements in any country or state, it must in time enter upon the road to economic decline. One important lesson is necessary for our race to learn, that is to patronize business men of our own people. Consider for an instance the "Black Belt" of Chicago, which con- J. W.

The colored race will never耐 that progress that it should will never command the respect consideration from the races that should be the ones, until it has respect and give its own race port. So long as he does not pose a challenge and support our own, we cannot hope for things from other races. Let each of us preshape this at all places and times and under circumstances.

(Afro-Courier News Service) BALTIMORE, Md., Oct. 11. Did Mrs. Francis Carroll, 762 Franklin street, who sent a bullet crashing through her temple in the presence of her youthful lover, commit suicide, or was it an accident? "Suicide," says lover. "Accident," says friend. "Murder," says mother. But the Coroner's Jury at the Western Police station rendered a verdict of suicide at a hearing Wednesday night. After carefully dressing herself about 9 o'clock, Saturday night Mrs. Carroll, who, since the separation from her husband had been living at 761 W. Franklin street, was being visited by her lover, James Anderson, 920 Pierce street, and a friend Miss Bessie Brooks, when, after calmly taking a pistol to the back door and firing it into air, she returned to the room and sent a bullet into her own brain. In the room at the time were Anderson and the Brooks woman, but neither of them, according to their statements, were aware of what happened until they heard the shot. At the hearing Anderson stated that he was keeping company with Mrs. Carroll and was visiting her when she took a revolver and laid it on the table. She took it up and held it in the air. He stated that he told her she should not have done that as it was against the law, and it was while he was talking to her that she raised he death dealing in- Better than a Mustard Pidder MUSTEROLE WILL NOT BLISTER CLUB MEMBER THE PITTSBURGH COURIER strument to her temple and fired. Even then, he stated, he did not realize the seriousness of what had happened. Miss Bessie Brooks, friend of the dead woman, who, in the room fixing her hair at the time, but who was not called to the investigation, told a reporter that when the shot was fired she looked around and saw her friend lying on the floor and even then thought it a joke until an examination showed blood trickling from her head. At this time she said, Anderson attempted to run from the room, but she stopped him and induced him to help her administer aid. As far as she knew there was no reason for Mrs. Carroll committing suicide. She could not understand why she was not called as a witness in the Coroner's investigation. Mrs. Carroll was twenty-five years of age and a Baltimore girl. When the officers arrived they found the pistol lying on a table in the rear room. When seen by a reporter the mother of the girl stated that she had her husband, her husband, murdered. Miss Brooks stated that she thought it was accident. James Anderson, she stated, had said that he had taken the cartridges out of the pistol.

Bishop Brooks Made 'Knight' By Liberians MONROVIA, Liberia, Oct. 11.—In the presence of a throng that jammed its spacious auditorium almost to suffocation and which overflowed the campus, the Monrovia College and Industrial. Training School was dedicated here Sunday. Ex-president Arthur Barclay, Liberia's grand old man, presided. He introduced President C. B. D. King who delivered a markful dedicatory address. The President's speech was frequently interrupted as applause. The climax came, however, when at the conclusion of his remarks he turned to Bishop W. Sampson Brooks, of Baltimore, who had built the institution with funds raised in America and centered upon him the high honor of Commander grade Order of the Star of Africa, a most coveted honor conferrable by the Liberian government. Bishop Overcome Bishop Brooks was so overcome with emotion that he could make no immediate reply, great tears taking the place of words, and this visibly affected the big audience which had come to the exercises. The insignia of the order is a heavy gold jewel suit, suitably inscribed and handsomely encased. In awarding the diploma, which is an accompaniment to the insignia the President said: This diploma is expressive and very high quality with an appreciation which the people of Liberia through their Chief executive attach to the energies you have unreservedly spent in this country in the furtherance of education, one of the most essential elements of human civilization and progress. While the Monrovia College stands as a monument of your labors this diploma gives you a pass for those whose benefit such a structure has been erected, and at the same time to show that you have attained to this degree of distinction by the course of merit.

Postal Clerk Being Held In $100,000 Theft Veteran Employee Accused of Stealing Mail Containing Cash and Bonds. (Crusader Service) NEW YORK, Oct. 11—William S. Jackson, a colored clerk in the Vark ick street branch, was held in $1,000 bail by United States Commissioner Hitchcock yesterday on a charge of stealing seal packages containing cash and bonds worth about $100. 000. Jackson had been in the service for ten years and his record was good. The desire of Jackson for, such luxuries, as $700 rugs, tulip bulbs, jewelry and subscriptions to popular white magazines led to his undoing. Detectives who had been shadowing several post office clerks in an effort to solve the mysterious thefts which had been occurring at the Varkich branch since last July arrested Jackson when, according to the gum shoe men, broke down and volunteered to go with them to his Owning home, where he surrendered more than $20,000 in money of the United States, England and the Argentine. Most of the money alleged to have been stolen is said to have been blowed in by Jackson. Jackson is married. His sister supplied the bail.

Rev.

Queens Mail Order House L. O. JAMAICA, N. Y. FOUR Report Show Over $75,000 Raised in Year By G. W. KINCAID The 76th annual session of the Allegheny Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church closed a memorable week in the history of Methodism. The conference, which convened in the John Wesley Church in Arthur street, Wednesday, brought to Pittsburgh the incarnation of the ecclesiastical lights, G. L. Blackwell of Philadelphia presided at the sessions, which continued through Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Many inspiring addresses were made by leading pastors and the visiting clergy and laymen brought new thoughts and enthusiasm to the minds of the followers. Reports showed that $75,000 had been raised during the year. Among the visitors were W. W. Matthews who recently returned from Africa, E. D. W. Jones of Washington, D. C., M. F. Jacobs of New York, Dr. Alleyne, New Rochelle, N. Y., W. W. J. Walls, editor of the Star of Zion, Charlotte, N. C. Each day the reports from the ministers and delegates showed great progress. The following persons were elected delegates to the conference which meets in Indianapolis, Ind., in May, 1924; Dr. W. D. Clinton, F. S. Anderson, R. W. -Smith, L. L. Wood, Lay delegates, Ellen Poole, Mr. J. W. Miller. Rev. G. W. Kincardie was appointed presiding elder of the Allegheny district. Rev. J. C. Taylor, the ex-presiding elder, was appointed pastor at Braddock. Rev. E. L. Madison was returned as pastor of John Wesley. Few changes were made among the ministers. They adjourned to meet in 1924 in Uniontown, Pa. WEEKLY SERMON If a Man Die, Shall He Live Again? These are days of reckoning in world affairs. The new dawn usher in a panorama of possibilities. Man is becoming reconciled. In the process of evolution, progression is the thought. The observers today are biding the time with patience. They are good listeners, eager to absorb; readers, unbiased to opinion, seek information to become conversant with the issues. In that they are veritable storehouses of inestimable worth, their conscience quickened by experience makes them a necessity, an authority. Thus again we add, these are the thinkers. Without thought or deliberation there are people who are quick to form conclusions, case-hardened, of longstanding, to be settled in habits, their methods satisfy, and their highest ambition realized in their limited habitat. They cannot and will not rise to the things within their reach. We recall some while ago to a teacher of a small town who without reserve declared war on Spiritualism. He made challenge to a Spiritualist (minister) medium, for debate. The subject, Orthodox Toym Square. Largely advertised. The town people were in a state of expectancy. At the hour appointed the teacher and the medium greeted cordially. The medium's salutation to the teacher, to dear sir, with what knowledge and to what extent are you informed on Spiritualism? "The teacher made reply: "I know nothing of that stuff, Spiritualism, and furthermore I don't care to know. It is no good." The medium in response called the assembly to witness the confession of the teacher, adding that the declaration as noted, automatically magizhim (the teacher) incompetent for debate. The readers, the town folk laughed the teacher to seorn, and the audience dispersed. This experience is a lesson for ourselves. Let us not ridicule or ensure without warrant. May we be securely founded lest we be weighed and found wanting. Some times prejudice bars the door of our conscience and we cannot grow. Lesse be observers, reasoners and thinkers. This system of Demonstrative Truth in Spirit Communication is an institution ordained of God. Jesus said, "No man at any time has heard the voice of God or seen his shape." Then his Divine Plan is made manifest, in that man and angel commune to do His (God's) will and purpose. May we give the condition in living a prayer dedicated to His service, and our souls will be in proximity with our Creator and ourselves. Then we will understand. Read and think for yourselves. And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free. Buy a copy. For installment 19. Goodwill Church. Spiritualist. Mrs. Georgia Gordon and E. H. Gordon, trance and inspiration speakers.

The one and only accredited Spiritualist Church in organized effort in the Hill district Fraternal Orders and Friends Out En-Masse as Last Rites Are Performed Over Body of Popular Character. "Bob" Russell's buddies carried him to his final resting place in Lincoln Cemetery here Sunday afternoon, following one of the most sollen and impressive funeral ceremonies ever held over the body of a local man. Prominent in lodge and fraternal circles and regarded as one of the most popular bestsellers, Abel men in the district a vast crowd, numbering more than 5,000 people, crowded the church and overran the streets as "Bob" started his last journey. Funeral Services Solemn Funeral Services Suited Solemity, which always rises to its might-in-present of death, stalked through the pews of the Central Baptist Church as fraternal oerger eulogies to the memory of the departed brother. Russell was a captain in the uniformed ranks, Knights of Pythias, a member of the Elks and a Mason. He was more than a mere member in all these organizations—for there were few who failed to bend to his cherry smile or his sunny disposition. In a few, well-chosen remarks, Rev. W. Augustus Jones paid a fitting tribute to the dead man, whom he said, declared he knew "all was well with him." Following the ceremonies at the church, the march to the cemetery began. With a band playing a funeral durge and with hundreds of Father Bishop Resigns Holy Cross Parish Rector Going to New York to Take Up Duties at St. Philip's Parish. After eight years of active influential service in the city of Pittsburgh, the Rev. Shelton Hale Bishop, Inst Sunday, resigned his charge as roctor of the Church of the Holy Cross, Center Ave. and Watt St. He resigned to go to be assistant to his father, the Rev. Hutchens C. Bishop, at St. Philip's Parish, New York City. He will leave Pittsburgh No. 15th. venture. Father Bishop came to Pittsburgh in September, 1913, from Chicago, Ill. He assumed charge of St. Augustine's, Jackson St., North Side. By diligent and efficient work he built up that Mission Station to such an extent that he attracted the attention of St. Philip's Church on Center-Ave., then without a rector, by reason of the protracted illness of Rev. Scott Wood. According to an arrangement made with the late Bishop Whitehead, Father Bishop was called upon to unite the North Side Church and the Center Ave. Church and become the new rector. This was accomplished and on December 8, 1916, he took up his duties. The united congregation chose the name of Holy Cross very shortly afterward and has retained come to the present. that name. During the administration of the Rev. Father Bishop, the work has taken on larger proportions and commanded the attention of the whole community. Under him, during the war readjustment period, two lots belonging the church were bought and a parish house purchased from the University of Pittsburgh, S. A. T. C. was erected. This, it might be well to state, is the only building in the city of Pittsburgh owned and operated by Negroes, where lectures, concerts, banquets and entertainments can be given. It has always served the community in a large way where possible. In April, 1921, the parish also purchased a beautiful rectory on Monti-St. Homewood. cello Set. Father Bishop has always taken a large part in the affairs of race people in this city that represented moral and social betterment. His interests, while first and for his own parish people, were not confined to those narrow limits. It was his work heard—that it will long be remembered, made it possible for several Pittsburgh boys to get out of the Labor Battalion in Camp Lee, and finally become officers in the army. For two years he was president of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., and also served on committees of the Urban League and Y. M. C. A. His work among the young people of Pittsburgh is outstanding! The boy choir in his church, the annual camp for boys started by him, the Holy Cross basketball team, the operatives produced under his management, the high order of social dances which he sponsored—these are only a few of the ways he has used to gather the young people from the evil attractions by which they are surrounded into a spiritual, wholesome, moral atmosphere. Pittsburgh will never forget his work among the young people. The work to which he is going is the largest Episcopal Church for those of our race in the world. In resigning to his congregation on last Sunday, Father Bishop said, "It is the splendid experience that I have had with you here at Holy Cross that has made it possible for me to go to that large work in New York". His own congregation is outspoken in their expression of regret that they are to lose their pastor. ```markdown ``` Robert "Bob" Russell fraternal men in line, the body was carried in solemn state to Lincoln cemetery midst streets thronged with humanity Dies Suddenly Russell died in the Mercy Hospital at 3:45 Wednesday morning, suffering from intestinal troubles. He was 42 years of age at the time of his death. He came to Pittsburgh 19 years ago, where he built up a large, circle of friends. Russell joined the church in Danville, Vn., when quite young. His widow and other relatives survive. Church Notes Oliver N Carter, Pastor It seems as though the hearts of the people were filled Sunday, and they came, as it were, to give God the praise, the manifestations of the Holy Spirit, was evident upon the faces of every one. Our Sabbath school was well attended and many new scholars added to the roll. We were largely represented in the district union, at the Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist church at 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon, which was an inspiration to all who attended. At 11 A. M. Dr. Banks, of Homestead, Pa. preached for us, and by his masterful way, lifted us to a higher plane, both spiritually and morally. The B. Y. P. U. at 6:30 P. M. rendered an interesting program. At 8 P. M. our pastor preached from the text Jer. 8-22 subject, "The Great Physician," which was enjoyed by all present. The people of the community seem to appreciate the great work being done by the First Baptist church, and are lending a ready and helping hand to promote the cause of Christ. Dr. P. L. Scruggs, pastor of New Zion Baptist church, of Chicago, Ill., preached for us Thursday and Friday evenings of last week, and left us a message that we can't forget. He is truly one of God's great men in that sinners are converted to Christ. The pastor was called from his home at 30 Mayflower street, East End, Monday evening, by a hoax, and when he returned heard music and mirth in his home, and the singing of that familiar hymn, "God Will Take Care of You." greeted his ears and to his astonishment found a delegation of his members and friends standing around the dining room table, which was creaking under the weight of good things from matches to money. Being visibly surprised and overwhelmed at such a token of respect for his services, he was unable to proceed until sat down while his noble wife made the speech in his stead while tears were visible in every eye. Those present were Sisters Fallon, Frye, Smith, Walker, Baldwin, Plato. Morgan and Brothers Herron, Weaver, Jones, Fallon and others, though not present, sent their respects. On Tuesday, October 16, Rev. N. C. Evans will take us on a trip to the Holy Land. Come early, don't miss these pictures. 1000 Agents THE PITTSBURGH COURIER The Rev. J. G. St. Clair Drake, pastor of the Bethany Baptist Church on Tigua street, left on Monday the 8th inst., with his son, St. Clair, for New York City. From thece he will sail on Tuesday, the 9th, for Barbados, British West Indies Island. His mother, who is very aged and ill, requested him to come home before she passes to the great beyond. The members of the church, when informed of the expected departure of their pastor, were visibly touched at both services on Sunday, Dr. Drake, notwithstanding the fact that he was under a great strain, preached two very practical, instructive and spiritual sermons at 11 A. M. and 7:30 P. M. At the close of the evening services the members unanimously granted him an indefinite leave of absence and presented him a splendid purse. Many useful articles were presented him and St. Clair also. It has been also arranged that Mrs. Drake, at an early date, will visit her parents at Staunton, Virginia. In the absence of the pastor, the services of the church will be directed by the Rev. A. M. Patterson with the assistance of the licensed preachers of the church.

This organization is for those above high school grade, who are striving to become teachers. The Alpha chapter was organized in Indianapolis in 1922 under the farsighted leadership of Miza Mary Lour Alison. One of the chief aims of this sorority is to encourage the prospective teachers to continue with their education until they have obtained a degree. The Normal Girls on Wilberforce Campus caught the spirit, and Kappa chapter was organized here April 21, 1923. The following are chartered officers and members: Homer Woods, president; Elizabeth Crosby, vice president; Minnie Mae Conbin, secretary; Lucille Watsonf treasurer; Anna Leach, critic; Arolla McGhee, alumni secretary, and Josephine Harper, journalist. Members are Cora Corneal, Carrie Cotton, Mildred Lytle, Zenobia Fleming, Willie Lee Preston, Annie Turner, Thelma Ray, Marion Bell, Florina Bell, Irene Fife, Mildred Tate, Addenne Maxwell, Thelma Gray, Marie Humble, Ursula Moats, Thelma McDonough, Nellie Beridon. Among this number there were four graduates from the Normal Department in June, 1923. The members of Zeta chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha have all returned with determination to do greater things than ever this year. We are glad to welcome Soror Pebseco of Theta chapter, who will have charge of Domestic Science here this year. Miss Pebseco thrilled the student body with a wonderful solo in chapel Wednesday night. Miss Sunnie Steele received the scholarship from Zeta chapter this year and Miss Vivian Hill the one from the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority of Wilmington, Delaware. Both of these young women are fond of here this year and we are wishing for them much success in their college course. Invitations are out for the annual hike for the freshmen and pledges of Alpha Kappa Alpha.—Madeline Davis, A. K. A., "24."

Here's the Best One Yet, An Ugliness Contest in Brazil Amidst all the beauty contests that have recently been staged in Latin countries on both sides of the Atlantic, it is almost refreshing to note that not only did Brazil have the stage to stage an ugliness competition—"for ladies only"—but that the announcement brought out more than 300 candidates. But out of the 300, only 229 were allowed to compete, because it was discovered that the remainder had deliberately gotten themselves up to be homely. Only genuine hideousness, of the amateur, born-in variety was accepted. The prize winner was a widow of thirty-two severe summers, who took apparently more pride in her trophy than many a "queen of beauty." She is understood to be contemplating another plunge in matrimony, thanks to her notoriety acquired by the contest and the tidy "dot" that made the prize. again arrived and with the coming of the fall we hear everywhere the ringing of the school bell. Schools, colleges and universities have opened and everything seems to be in full bloom. Wilberforce university has opened with a large enrollment. The beautiful campus is crowded with students, and here and there can be seen Delta girls so full of enthusiasm that they are bubbling over with plans for the school year of 1923-1924. Members of Beta chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority are delighted to have their president, Soror Mary Lee Fisher, of Owensboro, Ky., back with them. Soror Fisher has won a host of friends with her winning personality. Sunday evening, September 30, from 6:30 to 9, the Delta girls entertained the new college students at Soror Geraldine Jackson's residence. The guest list included about 55 and the affair proved quite a delightful one. It seems as if Cupid is forever lurking around. He has shot an other arrow and this time it has entered our circle, Soror Hazel Taylor being the victim. Soror Taylor is engaged to Bernard Paxton, a senior college graduate of '23 and Kappa Alpha Psi. Sorors Beunetta Alle and Ruth Anderson haven't returned to school as yet, but we are hoping that they will not tarry away any longer. Soror Grace Edmonds is teaching this year. We are sorry that she did not return, yet we wish her much success in her new undertaking. Soror Ethel Sutton, who taught in the Academic department last year, has been transfered to the Normal department. Soror Alberta Brazier, from Mobile, Ala., was accompanied to school this fall by her mother, Mrs. W. H. Brazier. We all regret very much that one of our pledges, Miss Lula Mae Johnston, did not return. Yet we are glad that she entered Pitt and we wish her much success. The school year is just beginning, but we expect to have a successful year and to overcome all obstacles in order to accomplish our plans for this school year.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER Act Of 66 October 15. Special midnight show The noted musical comedy "Liza" in two acts and 11 scenes; book by Irvin Miller and lyrics and music by Maco Pinkard, will begin a limited engagement at the Lyeum Theater, Monday, October 15, with matinees Wednesday and Saturday. When "Liza" was first produced at Daly's Theater, New York, last season, it was described as a "Lively, ingratiating and melodious entertainment." Another critic spoke of it as "An ingenious collection of musical comedy material sung, danced, and acted with much vehemence." Mr. Broun, the noted writer and critic, speaking of the colored players, found the dancing to be "the contribution of a race in which rhythm is a sense as definite as sight or touch or hearing." When 40 or 50 performers begin to sway and thrub to the music, there comes the realization that there is something which nobody else has. We have seen dancing more beautiful, but none which began as exciting. After seeing "Liza" we have a vague impression that all other dancers whom we saw did nothing but minuets." The story of "Liza" is about the efforts of the citizens of Jintown to erect a monument to its former mayor and is portrayed in two acts and 11 scenes. LYCEUM PRE Phone SmithBeld G024.

Then there is a sort of bad manners that even the most cosmopolitan of people may commit. These are the bad manners that are due to lack of consideration of others. We say it is ill-bred to crow our way into public conveyances, to upbraid our servants before other people, to assume a patronizing manner when talking with persons whom we regard as our inferiors. But there are some people whose pedigree dates back to William the Conqueror and whose education has been perfect, and whose character has been that of other people who have had no advantages either of birth or training who have the instinctive good breeding of the heart that makes it impossible for them to be guilty of that kind of bad manners. Then there are bad 'manners'—which the French would call gaucheries, derived from their word for the left hand—that are simply due to clumsiness. Some people have to struggle most against this kind of bad manners. There are the faults peculiar to another class of persons. Begging In every/community there are certain men and women who have the reputation of being good beggars and a person who is known to be a "good beggar" is usually sought eagerly by boards of managers and committee chairmen in all sorts of charitable and philanthropic organizations. But to be a good beggar does not mean simply to start courageously trying to persuade other folk to give for whom chosen cause. To be a good beggar you must be able to raise funds without giving offence or causing regret. Your wise rule if you are managing an organization, never to send a rich woman to beg from a poor person. And it is wise also to remember in your begging that you should never take the attitude that people are only doing their duty in contributing. Scrub Brushes Scrub brushes should be thoroughly cleaned between using. They should then be dried by placing them on their sides. A good plan is to put all cloths used in cleaning into a solution of ammonia and water with soap-suds after each using. Brushes need only to be rinsed in running water and well shaken out. Scars of all sorts are another detail that has come into renewed fashion with the return of the tailored suit. The homespun scarf of varying weights is especially smart. It is made in stripes running both lengthwise and crosswise; and in plains of every conceivable kind, so far as the spacing of the crossing bars is concerned. As for colors the different smart shades of brown and tan are the most used, with an occasional bar of orange, yellow, or blue. PERSONALS Clarence C. Kittrell of Erie, M. W. G. M. F. & A.

Lurella Juanita Irvine, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Irvine, and Edward Coleman of this city, which was solemnized at 8-P. M. last evening at the home of the bride's parents, in Hiker street. The bride and groom stood under a shower of pink and white roses where the nuptial service was performed in the living room by Rev. Charles Bundy, pastor of Oak Hill Avenue, A. M. E. church, the ring services being used. The groom entered the room with his mother, Mrs. Williams, who was gowned in black drape with black jet trimmings, followed by the bride's little brother, Harry Irvine, Jr., who was ring bearer. He was dressed in black satin with white trimmings, and carried the ring on a white satin pillow. The flower bearers followed, carrying tiny wicker baskets filled with rose petals, scattering them in the pathway of the bride; the bride's sister, Esther Albertine, who was dressed in white organdie and pink bow, ribbon, also the bride's three cousins, Marguerite and Elva May Parsons, who were dressed in pink silk trimmed in white lace, and Vera Dorothy Duffy, who was dressed in white organdie, lace trimmed. Miss Irvine, who entered on the arm of her father, Harry Irvine, was radiant as a bride, her lovely wedding gown of white accordion-crepe, with pearl head dress and she carried a beautiful bouquet of bride's roses and sweet peas tied with tulle. The wedding march, "Lohengrin," was played by Miss Elizabeth Lynch, while during the marriage ceremony Miss Lynch played sweetly "O Promise Me." Mrs. Irvine was gowned in black crepe with silver lace trimmings. A lovely bridal theme of pastel pink and white tones was revealed in the appointments of the wedding dinner, where covers were arranged for 50 guests.

The guests were William Wright, William Moore, of Baltimore, and Gilbert Smith. The club will meet Friday evening with Miss Lucile Murray, McGuffey road. Clubwomen! The motto of some of the club presidents I have met seems to be "Dominate or be damned!" Others, again, rule with the iron hand in the velvet glove. The best club president I have met in America hails from Boston, with the second best on the other side of the continent not far from Los Angeles. Everything tumbles on the president. If she be on "old fogey," with no literary taste and a tendency to Comstockism, she can paralyze any thought in her club. If, on the other hand, she be of the type of my Boston friend, with humor and literary understanding, she can lift her club to the seventh heaven, and the seventh thousand! One of the curses of many of the clubs I have visited is the curse of "playing at politics." What I have seen within the space of a few hours in some clubs in the way of "string-pulling and jockeying place" would give the Clementean of Lloyd Diffie, a woman with this special ability, back thru thick and thin for the leadership of the club and through it all the club suffers.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 11.—Lincoln University.—The Lincoln Lions made their first appearance of the season under the "personal direction" of Coach Young Saturday, when they met the Bordowtown team. Last year, from Ironia, he gave the Lions a very large care and allowed them only six points. Before the game Coach Young called for a big score. It took Lincoln just three minutes to score the first touchdown. Capt. "Whirlwind" Johnson carry-up the ball with Capt. "Crowman" and a few minutes later, kicked the goal. One a blocked kick. L. S. Johnson playing right tackle, fell on the ball, hind the goal line for the third touchdown. On the first, Lee kicking the goal. "Blyds" came after the kickoff by the fire-to-fire imitation of his Thanksgiving-run, by slipping through right tackle for a sixty-five yard run and touchdown, with half of the Bordowtown team, after him. At this point Coach Young sent in the entire "B" Team, while the third Super-World of the Year and a third periods, "A" Team went back for the fourth period, scoring a touchdown in each period. The final score was 63-0. Capt. Johnson scoring thirty of these points. "A" teams were with Jack at the Grants and Rooster at guards; Wilson and Johnson at tackle; Lancaster and Taylor at ends; Byrd at Quarter; Goodman and Capt. Johnson half backs and Lee full back. Morgan has returned and will at the old place. "A" teams will also be the "find" of the year and will undoubtedly displace ex-captain Boston. Lancaster bids fair to be the star end of the year. Goodman is beginning to show the stuff that made him the sensation in New England. Scoring has been the first place and positions creditably. Howard, Pollitz, Stratton and Ward are working hard for places in the backfield. "Bal" Taylor (shag No. 3) is the second choice for quarter; but this position may yet go to the smallest man in the team's Tuesday. But the same each Young has Lincoln Bordentown M. T. L. W.

By L. S. Baynes MOREHOUSE COLLEGE, Oct. 11, 1925 — The Morehouse Tigers opened the season by defeating the powerful 24th Infantry eleven from Camp Benning by a score of 30 to 6 on Saturday. The game was brilliant throughout. The Infantrymen brought a backfield need for its broken field runners. They often tore through the Morehouse line for 15 to 20 yards in the first quarter, but their only touchdown came in the second quarter and ended with the ball in Morehouse's Gavin. Benning then skirted right end for its touchdown. Capt. Oliver, Williams, and Freeland led the offense for Camp Benning. The entire Morehouse team played a tight game, half-back, played a brilliant offensive back, making three touchdowns.

Pollard is being sought by the Homestead Grays football team and it is understood that an attractive offer has been made for his services. "Ink" Williams, playing on the same club, is also being sought. New York Boxing 'Comish' Fails To Give Siki License New York Boxing 'Comish' Fails To Give Siki License NEW YORK, Oct. 11—Although the State Boxing Commission met in regular session last week, no action was taken on the application of the box in this state. It was made known last Monday that Siki had an application before the commission and it was intimated that action would be taken Wednesday. The failure of the boxing commission to take action on granting Siki his license has automatically stopped preparations for the Sikh School in the Square Garden on October 19th. This would have marked the debut of Siki in the ring in this country. So sure was Rickard that the commission would grant the license that he ordered to his assistants that the orders to his assistants be arranged. Kelly was the best all-round man playing a perfect game. Jordan, full-back; and Forbes end, played their respective positions in mid-season form. The team tackle, men who tried to pierce the Morehouse line. Morehouse scored in the first seven minutes of play. The ball was carried by Franklin over Camp Benning's right tackle, men who tried to pierce the quarter-Kelly completed a forward pass to Franklin netting 15 yards. Jordan next hits the line for 5 yards, and Franklin carries the ball over again. Coach Harvey then sent in the second team, and the team scored. When they began to rip and tear the Camp Benning line to pieces. In the se end half, Coach Harvey again sent the second, team in. Camp Beining successfully carried the ball to Morchouse's Yard line, but the Morehouse line stiffened and held Camp Benning for four runs. In the fourth quarter, field first team scored a goal. Soon afterwards Franklin again carried the ball for the third touchdown. Camp Benning received the kick off and resorted to a forward pass. It was intercepted by Jordan who carried it 15 yards. Kelly nets 15 yards, Jordan 5 yards, and the ball is then given to Kelly who carried it. Hutte's recent recruit, handled his position as quarterback like a veteran. He kicked three out of four goals and in the last minute of play ended the game with a sensational Body Crushed in Line Play. Against Minnesota, Former Cleveland School Star, Dies in Hospital TEAMMATES AND SCHOOL MOURN LOSS—TO TAKE BODY BACK HOME AMES, Ia., Oct. 11.—Jack Trice, of Cleveland, O., a sophomore of Iowa State college and a tackle on the varsity football eleven, died here Monday afternoon from injuries received in the Minnesota game at Minneapolis, Saturday. Trice was crushed in a play through his position and was taken to the Minnesota hospital. He was brought to Ames Sunday morning and physicians had been in constant attendance ever since. Trice was crushed in the play and died from a hemorrhage of the lungs. School In Mourning The entire student body and faculty of the school is in mourning today as the result of Trice's tragic death, and special services will be held in the chapel. Iowa players will wear a black band on their sweaters for the remainder of the year, it was announced here Tuesday, out of respect to the dead star. Trice was one of the most brilliant players in the Iowa line; and bid fair to become a second "Duke" Slater. In addition to this, he ranked exceptionally high as a student.

There have been no injuries of a serious nature, only a few minor injuries being reported. The coaches are elated over the manner in which the players are rounding into true "Seaside" form. The men are showing signs of improvement in every particular of the preliminary practice. The much-dressed practices of falling on the ground and running the dummy" and giving practice actual tackling and running with the ball. During the latter part of the week the candidates were put into squads and run through signal drills and short scrimmages. The conditioning exercises are being kept up in order to put the players into good physical condition, while the rubbers are doing their share in keeping the ball. Promising Candidates The recruits are showing real varsity form in all of the workouts. They promise to give the letter drop kick from the forty-yard line.

The entire first squad, with one or two exceptions, is made up of letter men. The line has many of its positions filled by veterans and non-veterans, and is madeable as last year's line. The backfield will be built around such versatile and heady players as Cardozo, a ripping line-plunger, who made touchdowns against such players as Bacon, Gunn, the elusive half, who won many points with his trained toc; B. Jacobs, the diminutive but great quarter, who successfully ran his team to many victories; King, a great player who was nationally fast all-round player; Williams, a great broken-field runner, who was injured early last season but who promises to be counted among the best; and Hardwick, a great line-plunger and all-round player who is decided that there are a number of other good men. The Hampton-Lincoln game, which was to have been played either in Baltimore or in Lincoln, has been definitely scheduled for Baltimore on November 3. Both the "Lions" and "Seasiders" play "bring the ball home," together the Howard, game, this contest will be one of the hardest of the year.

Waynesburg Star Speddy halfback of the Waynesburg College eleven. Tate is reputed as being the most flashy halfback developed at Waynesburg in years his open field running and high-grade defensive play ranking him with the best. He is the first colored lad to have entered the college. Running Attack Of Tuskegee Too Much For Clark Opponents Unable To Register Single First Down As "Tigers" Sweep to 35-0 Triumph. TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Alabama, October 11.—Tuskegee Tigers opened the grid season on Washington Field Saturday afternoon, October 11 with a 35-0 defeat against the big Clark University elephant hailing from Atlanta, Georgia. The score represents two place kicks, one safety, four touchdowns with three goals after touchdowns. Coach Abbott's charges swept the Clark eleven off of their feet, swept ends and ploughed the penalties of their opponents at will. Penalties, due to the inexperience of the players, increased a larger score as the Clark boys were not able to register a first down either by a running attack or by the aerial route and on the defense were only able to stem the attack once backs once during the entire game which was played throughout in Clark's territory. The feature of the game was the defensive play of the Tuskegee line as well .s the strong running attack presented by the backfield. Frequent substitutions were made by Coach Abbott in order to get a line on the forty-seven huskies composing the squad. Lineup: Tuskegee Gilbo L.B. Lennon Tolla Brown L.G. Tadock Q.B.

Perusing thru the classics of ancient days we find the glories of their men of valor emblazoned in Spartan virtue and bravery. Before us today we see our boys "over there" carry our in their hearts the command which falls from French lips, "ils ne passent pas". And then we turn again and see another hero; goes into the battle, not to take life, gain territory or govern governments; to fight as he knows to bring victory to his Mater. This hero is none other than the football player who plays the game because he loves it. Who loves it because it is a man's game. He plugs patiently on some spite injuries. He heals the conditions although he goes is rough. When he never recognizes it but fights all the more determinedly. He gives his all to his team and cries when he can do no more. When limb has been broken and he knows can go no longer in the scene of morale when he falls so deep into him he forgets his personal welfare and begs, "Coach don't take out". A list the whole length of this column and more could be given of those who gave their all for their various schools and passed in the scene of death in a seat in the rear and try to resist the call of the gridiron even when Nature has decreed that their days are over. Surely our schools and colleges can not fail to sing the praises of those who fight to carry the warships floating in the sphere of Viceroy FOR SOON THEY SHALL PASS OFF THE SCENE. It is very easy for one to see the faults in any system. As a matter of fact, faults stare up in the face of the faults more evident than others. One fault we have to find with the average individual who attends a football game is that he loses all traces of self-control, for instance, when he for the sport that is in it, and assumes an attitude toward his opentent tha would, with a little encouragement, soon place him in the category of a murderer. The attitude that has caused such hostile camps representing different schools to spring up and do more to injure the game than to promote its well-being, is in some of the followers of two of our leading colleges. It has separated them. It has caused them to forget that they are working toward the same goal. It caused them to forget that still is looked upon as a blot on both institutions.

Morris Brown won their opening ganie here last Saturday against Haines Institute, 19-7. Though outweighed almost fifteen pounds to the man the fast team from the Augusta Institute put up a good fight. When the whittle blew for the end of the first half the score stood 74 in favor of Haines Coach Tutt's boys, to stand up and tackle play with line plunges and off tackle plays which the Purple and, Black squad pulled off in the second half and the game ended with the final score, 19-7. Coach Aiken of Atlanta University has his squads all ready for their opening clash with Knox here today. (Oct. 13th). There is great speculation as to who 'shall' start the game as to the "Chief" always keeps them guessing, and never guesses. It is generally believed that the entire squad will get a taste of the fray. The Crimson and Grey institution has the greatest prospects in its history. The coaches will have a hard time trying to distinguish between the first and second eleven players that they are determined that they shall have a permanent berth this year and are working hard to this end. Mr. McMorris, coach of the backfield, has three fast back fields under; his tutorage and his will be a hard tank to pick the first four. His team is out for end positions; while the "Chief" himself has three full lines daily working hard to win a berth on the regular squad. The Crimson Hurricane faces the hardest schedule in its history and emerges victorious this year there is no question of its Southern supremacy. The wonderful work of Franklin, dashing halfback and the work of Hutt at quarterback featured the 30-5 victory of Morehouse over Camp Benning last Saturday. Jordan Fallsback and Forbes stole played mid-season ball. The infantrymen tore through the Morehouse line from time to time for ten to twenty yard gains but the college boys out-generated them. Interested parties are looking upon the Turkegee eleven with no small degree of concern. Their 35-0 victory over Clark last week only serves to bolster up the belief that the "tiger is going on a victorious rampage this year." ICK? tunes builds up the BLOOD, MUSIC, NEVERES.

Sporting writers throughout the East are unanimous in their praise of the W. & J. officials for the stand they took in Saturday's dispute over Charlie West.

Instead, they caught a Tastar. They found that even Northern folk can have traditions and principles. Ku Klux ideas cannot be stuffed down the throat of President Baker, of Little Washington.

The local favorite, who is credited with a knockout over Art Stigall, and stalked well-wornweight, never recovered fully from a knockdown in the first round, and stalled throughout the rest of the fight, clinching often to save himself from punishment. Robinson waged his usual cool aggressive fight. Ohio School Eleven to Open Season Next Saturday Against Strong Dayton Club. WILBERFORCE, O., Oct. 11.—Wilberforce University's football team will open its season with the Dayton Independent team on Saturday, Oct. 13. The "Force" eleven is fast rounding into shape for the hard series of games ahead of them. A scrimmage game between two teams picked from the squad showed the development of the "rush" line, and the physical condition of the regulars. Two Men at Quarter Redden and Stout have been working at quarter, with Captain Hurd, Johnson, Springs, Sewich, Lewis, Thompson and Coleman in the backfield. Huff has been out of the game for a week, due to a pulled tendon. Pete Willett has returned and will report this week for practice. Brown, veteran end, has also been out of the game for three days, but is again on duty. New Man at End Woolridge, one of the finds of the season, has been at right end. He is a wonder-at pulling down forward passes and a veritable tower of strength on the defensive. The line, though green, has marked improvement. Bickett and Fields, all-W. Va. Mission, are up in spirit and will be heard before the end of season. Of the veterans, A. Smith, R. Smith, House, Holmes, Jenkins, Berry and Stewart have been showing real form. Three "Triple-Threat" Men Wilberforce is fortunate in having at least eight backfield men that rank among the best in the intercollegiate world, with three of them perfect "triple-threat" men. With a good injunction of school spirit and fight, the team is expected to go the whole season undefeated. St. Paul Gridders Conquer Seminary InGreatStyle,10-0 By J. L. Whitehead LAWRENCEVILLE, Va., Oct. 6.—With a determined offense that threatened to annihilate Virginia Seminary at several stages of the game, and with a defense that refused to acknowledge even the possibility of a defeat, St. Paul's premier machine swept to a 10 to 0 victory in their opening clash of the season here today. Not in the history of collegiate athletics is there recorded a cleaner and more scientific oval battle than that on historic Russell Field this afternoon. The Sportive Realm (Prospective and Retrospective) Admirers of clean sportsmanship throughout the country are loud in their praise of the stand taken by the W. & J. authorities, last Saturday, against the unspoisonmanlike and un-American demand of Washington and the university's football team, which refused to go on the field unless West, the star of the Red and Black, was removed from the lineup.

About sixty men have for two weeks been practicing daily under the guidance of Coaëh A. P. Hamblin and his assistants.

High School Young 'Brickley' Is Uncovered At Va. High School ROANOKE, Va., Oct. 11—Prospects for a winning team at Harrison High this year are very good. Coach Lawson has his men out every aft 'moon in preparation for the hardest season that the team has ever faced. On next Friday there is a game with Bluefield Inst. or Klimball High School, now pending. On the following Friday the Team goes to Washington to play Dunbar High. This game is looked forward to with unusual interest by all. Last year Harrison was leading Dunbar by 6 to 0 until the last few minutes of play, when they managed to put over a touchdown and kick the goal for the extra point. Harrison is in for revenge this year, and with practically the entire team intact the prospects are very good. Two squads are on hand every afternoon and all are fighting for a place.

Why is an oyster the most contradictory thing in the world? Because it has a beard without a chin, and it is pulled out of its bed to be tucked in. Why is it not possible for a man who lispes to believe that young ladies actually do exist? Because to him every miss is a myth. Why is a man searching for the philosopher's stone like Neptune? Because he is a seeking (a sea king) what never was. Why is an old man's Texas ranch like the focus of a sunglass? Because it is a place where the sons raise meat (sun's rays meet). Why was Gollath so astonished when David hit him with a stone? Because such a thing had never entered his head before. Why is an oyster stew like our glorious Fourth?

SATURDAY, OCTOBER KIDDIE KA I'm taking dollie She has a suit Shoes and cap I'm sure we CINDER S I'm taking dollie bathing. She has a suit like mine. Shoes and cap to match also I'm sure we both look fine. Cinderella was a beautiful little girl. She had a cross and ill-tempered stepmother and two step-sisters who were also cross and ill-tempered. They made her very unhappy. They would not allow her to dress in fine clothes such as they wore; instead they made her clothes herself in rags and live in the garret. They made her scrub pots and pains in the kitchen and make their beds and do a lot of other things that were unpleasant. However, Cinderella managed to smile in spite of such treatment, and she was always kind to her step-sisters. "One day the King gave a grand ball. Every one that he had ever seen he invited to it. He had never seen Cinderella, but her two step-sisters had strutted past the palace so often that the King could not help but see them. They both received invitations, and for weeks ahead of time they made Cinderella work hard making pretty dresses for them to wear. When at last the day arrived, the two sister stepped into their coach and — without even thanking Cinderella for making their dresses — they drove proud off to the ball. Cinderella sated them until they were out of sight, and then she sat down by the fire and told them to cry. "What are you crying for, my dear?" acked a kind voice beside her. Cinderella looked up, and there stood her fairly godmother. "I w-wish I could go to the b-ball," sobbed Cinderella. "You shall," her fairy godmother replied, "if you are a good girl and if you do as I tell you. Go out into the garden and get me a pumpkin." Cinderella soon had brought to her godmother the biggest pumpkin in the garden, the fairy touched it with her wand, and immediately it turned into a beautiful gold coach. Then she picked up the mouse trap. It had six mice in it. One by one she let them out and as she did so she touched them with her wand; they became pure white horses. "We need a coachman," said the fairy godmother. "Is there a rat in the trap?" Cinderella looked, and there were three of the biggest rats she had ever seen. The godmother took the one with the most whiskers and turned him into a coachman. Next she found six lizards in the garden, and these she quickly changed into footmen. Then she touched Cinderella herself with the wand, and she became clothed in garments which were so costly that even a princess could not afford to It's all in the care for you YOUR complexion can be treated skin lightened, your neck and your hands soft and smooth and by simply using Dr. Fred Palmer.

So inaccuracies in dates, prices and money involved in transactions, as well as in our group, are secret, socially, political, otherwise will be given that any apologies whatever WYLE AVENUE. Pittsburgh is one of the best known thorny-cougars in the world. Not it is so wide or so long, but it is active and is controlled by the Jewish merchantman in every business or enterprise. The Avenue begins at Fifth Avenue and extends to Horners Street and to Horners Street. If one were to sketch the route of Wyle Avenue it would resemble Danoy Doley's photograph of real writing. It has few, very small places to its credit, but is excellent route for hiking parties in parallel parades—and two or more before each election, some of which discover it is a awards and recognition event there and his bearers of his desire and desire of their support. These embellished uses made of Wyle are not including the special extensions to Nogroes of the concerned houses at a low? and going to and fro without domestic care as all law-abiding ones. There are other uses of the popular adjective but there are within at certain times of the year engaged persons proficient in The Avenue is divided into three Downtown, the hill and Wake. Downtown embraces all areas from Fifth Avenue to Street and is populated Indian and Jews, with a few French and there are several City Bank, Pittsburgh and the Courier is in La Lay (Fourth avenue) and Jew's Hat Shop are the real centers in this section. It is when necessary by the city, apparently, the set of regulations common in Greek and the section was very popular old days when Russell took second Hall Station — known to U.S. as the stop on Jack Johnson. But, parts of this prose, the struggle of pioneers this and dismissed the Irish Galley Camp Comedy. The city is the only thrill- pik 'tili', often referred to in the daily papers, extends from Washington Street to Kirkpatrick but like a series of volcanoes some parts are active.

There are many prominent places in this section, but since we are not up our space suited for advertising we are not them in a future article. This section takes up about sixteen city blocks, but the money is spent in three: Washington to Logan to Townsend to Fullerton. Some few colored people conduct business here, but the money is spent in things but the Bethel Church and might have a mortgage on that, as far as I know. In this section, is congregated or assembled, at all hour of the day, different strategy and intellectual groups for discussion of subjects ranging from the beginning of "A" to perpetual motion. Barber shops, pool rooms, drug stores, sidewalks and restaurants are equally the meeting places of these groups and visitors from far and near make it a point to visit Wylie Avenue once during their stay in order to attend at least one of these meetings. They are free and unharmful as long as one is content to be a listener or has one member of the group having done at least one unauthorized thing. Without these qualifications it is prudent to be a listener. The vamp parade is a daily and nightly event and is always well attended in warm weather. On Sunday the camps give way to the Saintsy Review and Fashion Walk, which begins at Elm and continues eastward, music and dance throughout the week; on Sunday the pious expression of the Reviewers is sufficient to send a certain kind of thrill through a brass Indian. So we dispense with music on Sunday. During the week, some parts of every good orchestra is to be heard on Wylie's somewhere in the city, while other vocal offerings as well as mechanical specialties—the police object to the latter, but both are effective if accepted. The spectators or audience to this diversity of entertainment are composed of all classes of workmen, professionals and intellectuals from the morally purist, the generalist, usually is well balanced, contributing to the other voluntarily or otherwise. These three blocks are busy, very busy and the highway and by-way workers, realizing send out Saturday night squads and Negro hymnals are rendered in every dialect known in Southern tribes. It is stable undertaking for all Protestant denominations are represented—and they work hard—in their way. One might get the impression that with all these activities to look forward to during the season flights and bravely out scheduled—a certain amount of anxiety and desire to spend as much time on Wylie Avenue as possible. But it's just the reverse. After seeing the same act over and over for twenty-five years, the present show is hardly worth the admission charged plus war tax. THE president of the bank which has never been closed for repairs says that Marcus Garvey finished the job. He part of it and a part of him. If you accept one you must accept the other. We all have our shortcomings. Yes, sir. We agree with you—a good better or worse job. He said as much right to advise here as in the case of two fools wanting to marry. THE MUSEUM OF THE WESTERN WESTERN WESTERN The $250,000 home of the late Mme. C. J.

Oct. 12—Bed 12, men's ward, Charity Hospital, died Friday night exactly on scheduled time. Late in the afternoon Bed 12 was examined by the doctors. He appeared to be getting better. Certainly, he showed no dangerous symptoms. But when the nurse passed a glass of water over him to Bed 13, the man in that bed refused. "He 'got them things in it, nurse,' declared Bed 13. The nurse held it up to the light. Bed 12 and 13 looked at each other and grinned. "There's nothing in this water, sir, not a teeny-weeny thing." "Yes, ma'am you can't see nothing," said Bed 13. "But there's always things in water passed over a man that's going to be leaving Set Time of Death "He's right." Bed 12 murmured, "Everything's going to be over tonight." The day nurse told the night nurse about this matter at 7 o'clock before she hurried off to change clothes for a movie. In the early part of the night Bed 12 slept, but he awoke a little before 1 o'clock going to be over in five minutes," said Bed 12. The nurse went back to her table in the hall where the record of the miseries of her patients is kept in words such as a mechanical god might use. She sat a few minutes wondering if she could call her out or out of half decided to call him, but she went back to the ward before going to the telephone. Bed 12 was dead. Seldom is anything of this sort found in most wards. But it happens in some wards almost as often as in others. The needles, pebbles gathered under the new moon at the crossroads, and the tongue of the big frog bleached in red marked canvas bags about their necks. It is a sort of joke. say the doctors, that the patients play on them to get even for the bags. It is sort of a final attempt to show the doctors that there is something in the slowly working.

But, unlike Mrs. Stillman, Mrs. Tandy has the love, confidence and protection of her husband, who is the trying ordels of court procedure, while Mrs. Stillman bore the humiliation of having the accusation come from the man who should have been wrongly pressured the vulgar public entailed. Mrs. Tandy, with her attorneys and friends, has stirred up more trouble than little old New York would enjoy. The affidavits which contained the statements Dr. Vincent, a wealthy colored physician of New York, is alleged to have made, were offered by Miss Bessie King, former secretary to the late Adam C.alkerke, is said to have been a colonial statesman to the Dr. Vincent is alleged to live made, connecting Mrs. Tandy with Jack Nail, Jr., a prominent business man and a brother-in-law of James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the Nation, and a Colored People.

Oct. 12. — An elderly woman called at the office of County Prosecutor Herbert W. Mitchell yesterday and complained that her son, residing in a remove section of Belmont county, is being slowly stareed in death because his bride of a few months will not use the same methods of cooking as employed by his mother. The prosecutor was asked to interdeed, but Mitchell suggested that the young man spared him. "That's just the trouble," the mother-in-law said, as she prepared to leave the office, "the poor boy seems to like her cooking, but I know what's good for him. I cooked for him for 26 years." deeply hidden mind of a negro ward which doctors' science knows nothing about. Not long ago there was a colored woman with pellagra, who called the nurse to her bed and said she was going to get well. That woman was getting better. There was every reason to believe she was going to get well. At time of "They'll be here about 3 o'clock," said the woman. And at 3:05 she died. But, as a sister in the ward said, the bags with their charms are most likely the work of the devil. And so the nurses and sisters take them away from the colored patients and burn them. There are pleadings sometimes, but usually the patients just murmur "the nurses' counsel takes no stock in frog tongues, although there was the case of a colored man brought to a hospital by his employer. "This fellow says he is going to die next Tuesday," said the employer. "See what you can do for him. The man was, so far as the doctors could find out, not a bit sick. But he died when Tuesday came. as to his parentage. Some of the facts surrounding the case are interesting. Miss King, who lives at the Tandy home, 221 West 159th Street, was a friend of Dr. Vincent. When he alleged that it is alleged she broke off the relationship, it is said Dr. Vincent became greatly distressed and accused the Tandys of influencing Miss King to sever their friendship. Dr. Vincent married him, and Miss Vincent married Montgomery, the daughter of Victor Tulane, a trustee of Tuskegee Institute. Miss King also comes from a prominent New England family and is popular in the social set. Miss King says, "I was married to Vincent was married, and that he said it would not make any difference, that he love dher (Miss King) and would sacrifice everything." In a reported interview, Miss King is alleged to have said: "Dr. Vincent has threatened to kill me and for several weeks I feared to go upon the streets. I believed him to be demented. He has caused me to worry so that I was forced to leave the city. I sought rest and protection at a summer home in Stockholm during few months. I had only been there a time when he learned my whereabouts. "It was just last month. I understand, he told his wife he was going to Boston for a few days. Instead he and Eugene Moore, son of Fred Moore, of the New York Age, motored to where I was and caused a disturbance. Again he attempted to force me to be friendly with him and demanded that I get in his car. This I refused to do and he began to use physical force upon me during the disturbance. I hurried my right ear, hurting me terribly. He has proudly displayed the earring about the streets of New York and made remarks about how he happened to be in possession of it. "I have never accepted any money from Dr. Vincent, nor has he 'kept me at any time since I have known him. The statement made by me in the afdavits are positively true. Not only has he talked about Mrs. Tandy, but he also marked about Mrs. Bessie Beardman. Bernie Austin and many other prominent women." Judging from Miss King's alleged statement Dr. Vincent was come little gossiper. Mrs. Bernie 'Austin and Mrs. Bessie Beardman, against whom he is also, alleged to have taken over the office of members of the eastern social colony. Mrs. Austin is one of New York's prettiest matrons, and Mrs. Beardman is also a beauty and fashionable society woman. They are both interested in charitable affairs of all kinds, and just several weeks ago Mrs. Beardman was named as chairman of the Japanese Colored League, and New York County Chapter of the American Red Cross in raising thousands for devastated families. In spite of the gossip and notoriety, Major Tandy remains by the side of his wife. He is a well-known man. He was formerly with the 15th class of the university, and the institution is national. A few years ago he distinguished himself in accomplishing the realization of the dream of the late Madam C. J. Walker in designing her mansion, at Irvington-on-Hudson. Mrs. Tandy is a graduate of the University of Tuskegee Institute. She is the daughter of the late Dr. Doresette, of Montgomery, Alabama. And what has Dr. Vincent to say about the matter? It is reported that he has taken it all as a joke. He denies that he ever "peddled" scandal about him. Tandy or any of the women Miss King names in her affairity. What will the trial disclose? COURIER-ETTES Queer News All Picked Up From Papers All Over the Country LONDON, England, Oct. 11—The superstition that Pharaho Tutankhamen still exerts a malign influence upon the disturbers of his tomb has been revived by the death here a day or two ago of Aubrey Terbert, half-brother of the late earl of Carnarvon. Mr. Herbert, who died after an operation, was well known in Great Britain as a traveler, diplomatist, linguist, poet, soldier and politician. He served in France in 1914 and later served in the Dardanelles and in Egypt. His friends recall that he strongly objected to Lord Carnavaron's activities at Luxor, believing it unlucky to interfere with the tombs of the princes buried in the burial chambers of the Pharoh were laid bare Mr. Herbert remarked: "Something dreadful will surely happen to our family."

Paracelsus, shell-backed mascot of a University of California fraternity was hauled from the ashes of the deceased. He was returned several days after the confession. Apparently Paracelsus had not suffered from his torrid experience. BUTTERFLIES PASS IN SWARM St. Louis Crowds Watch Their Migration to the Gulf ST. LOUIS, Mo., Oct. 11.—Many persons here deserted their regular daily occupations to watch butterflies passing over the city in a southerly direction. The insects, it was learned, were big brown butterflies of the type known to entomologists as Monarch; and they were migrating from points near the Canadian boundary to the grass coast. Government entomological experts here said that few butterflies migrate, as their natural life is not of greater duration than three months. Those of the type that passed over one-third of their life in making one migration. They average about 100 miles a day on their flight. BOBBED HER HAIR ON STREET Gets 12 Days in Jail on a Disorderly Charge BALTIMORE, Md. Oct. 11.—Arrested for bobbing her hair while sitting on the curbing at a street corner, she was sent to jail for 12 days by Magistrate Rettalja, on a disorderly charge. Noticing a crowd on the corner, a patrolman investigated and found the woman seated and industriously shearing her locks, with the hair flying in all directions, while she was in police questioning. In Police Court the woman merely said she wished to preserve her youthful appearance. And Flaring Skirts That Fill Out Like a Balloon LONDON, England, Oct. 11—Smartly dressed women of the future must wear "fair" skirts, modified leg-of-mutton sleeves, well-defined waist-lines, and must make up in "doll" fashion, according to London fashion dietators. The "doll" make, consists of a dash of red high on each cheekbone, and another dash in the middle of the forehead. This gives the fair wearer the appearance of a Dutch doll. Skirts of the coming season, the London modists have decreed, shall be so made that when the wearer walks the skirt will fill out like a balloon, the drapers will enflame her as in a sheaf. The new circular "fair" skirts are shorter than those of last year. Glass Eye Saves Owner From Jail LONDON, England, Oct. 11. —A London police surgeon, Dr. McKeeah, has just testified that a man was drunk on the ground that "his eye was dilated." But it never occurred to him that the eye might be a glass one. In point of fact it was. Accordingly, Police Magistrate Lankester questioned that one Stanley Watson was drunk while driving an automobile, and what looked a black case turned out to be an acquittal. DIXON smiled inwardly. Was this man's prejudice so strong that it affected even his sense of smell? he asked himself, as there flashed into his mind visions of fullpage ads in the leading Sunday newspapers and popular periodicals, as well as street car ads, recommending preparations to white people to remove their odors. Many other details crowded into his mind as the odor of shop girls in heated department stores; of crowded whites in the New York subways; of that of even cleanly, refined white women and girls in thin shirt-waists, particularly when excited; he thought also of the great amount of deodorants on the car used by passengers to drown their various odors, but mentioned none of these facts. He said instead: "May I read to you what Sir Harry Johnston has to say on this?" He took out his note-book and read the following quotation from "The Negro in the New World:" "A striking peculiarity of the African is the musky, goat-like smell exhaled from the sweat, more especially the axillary glands. The odor is markedly characteristic of the African recorded among Asian Negroes), but also occurs to a much slighter degree among the Europeans as an exhalation from the armpits. Yet. I would make bold to say, that this skin odor is not so disgusting as that which comes from heated and unwashed Europeans and unwashed Africans, but from more African, who keep their bodies washed and clean. While in the United States I mixed with Negro crowds and scarcely noticed any disagreeable smell, for the Negroes, like the American whites, are an inherently clean people, who are in inherently present with disagreeable body odors from the offensively dirty Chinese travelling in public convoyances or from newly arrived immigrants in New York. "Finto says: For a long time it was thought that white men were exempt from this smell, but now we have to admit a strong smell peculiar to white skins—a smell that the Japanese declare to be insupportable." "Dr. Majola Argebi, a native African scientist, in his address before the Universal Races Congress said that the African complains of a rancid odor about white men." "I'll tell you an experience of my own," continued Dixon. "One day I entered the Chicago Art Institute after closing hours. As I entered I was assailed by an odor that reminded me strongly of Negroes loading banana baskets at Pike Place Market. Indies. Tracking down this pungent odor I found it came from one of the scrubwomen, who was not a Negro, but a Pole. It was, undoubtedly, an odor of sort that Huyssman, the great French novelist, described in 'Le Gousset' when, in speaking of the odor from the armis of French women working in the fields, he says: "It was excessively scary. It was like an unstopped bottle of alkali; it seized you, irritating your 'inous membrane with a rough odor.'" Silence for a few minutes, broken only by the rattling of the train. Dixon, in spite of his endeavor to suppress it, had the buoyant air of a winer. The Senator appeared worried and ill at ease. He apparently could think of no defensive retort, for he began to illustrate "A few minutes ago" he objected, "you said 'Caucasian blood, figuratively speaking.' What do you mean?" The next thing you'll be telling me is that there is no difference between that and Negro blood." "There is neither Caucasian nor any other kind of blood—just human blood. May I read you what Finot has to say on this matter?" He had just found the place and was about to begin reading when both men started nervously from their seats. "What's that?" demanded the Senator. A noise like that of a barking dog was coming from the body of the car. "Someone having at nightmare, I should say," laughed Dixon. "One hears some strange noises on a sleeping car at night." "Can't be," said the other gruffly. "That's a dog." Dixon went in to investigate. Soon he returned, smiling. "You were right, he had a poole in her basket. In making down the beds I pushed the basket up against the steam pipes. The poor little fellow was being roasted alive, and he was trying to tell us all about it." Dixon went on to tell of a passenger who walked in his sleep and had a narrow escape from stepping off a moving train. But the Senator was apparently little interested in the incident and again brought up originals. "I was a bit embarrassed the passage he had started to read. Finding it again, he began "The anthropologists have not succeeded in finding the essential variations in the composition of the blood between men of yellow, black and white, in the blood of the skulls, of the smallest cranial capacity and those of most astonishing greatness. What is no less conclusive is, that the part which the composition of the blood plays in demonstrating the difference between races is, the known blood of the blood belonging to the same variety and the same species which may be injected into them with impunity. Thus the blood of a hare may be injected into the organism of a rabbit or that of a mouse into a rat, but the blood of a man may not be injected into the organism of a dog, horse or any other animal. Neither can the blood of an animal be injected into a man. In all these cases the foreign blood will be destroyed or destroy the organism that receives the injection. On the other hand the blood of a black man may be injected into the blood of a white or brown man. In the form of the skull as well as the other grounds on which the anthropological divisions rest plays as a digestive a part as the color of the skin." Dixon found another -place and read: "The oldest of all human classifications (color) is at the same time one of the most defective. Its errors are obvious the moment the specific characteristics of each of the categories are considered. For, while among the whites are there men skins are as black as ebony, the Black or the Black Moors of Senegal, there are among the blacks fair or yellow skins in the Bushmen. Whence is this difference color? The skin of the Negro, the yellow man and the white, is identical as to that which concerns its composition—the derm, the mucous membrane and the epidermis. What varies is the color of the cells of the mucous membrane; these are black-brown in the Negro, pale yellow in the white; a yellow, more or less, in the brown skin. But when this difference of coloring is examined closely, it must be acknowledged that the milieu represented in particular in this case by the intensity of the solar rays, exerciser a preponderant influence on it." "I have also a quotation from Von Luschan. Professor of Anthropology in the University of Berlin, on this matter of color, from his address "Universal Races Congress: 'Still we have more objectionable is the division as we. We now know that color of skin and hair are only the effect of environment, and that we are fair because our ancestors lived for thousands in sunless, foggy countries. Fairness, nothing elts but lack of pigment, and nothing lost part of theirs because they had no use for it." "Schopenhauer in The World as Will and Idea," says There is no such thing as a white race, much as this is talked of but every white man is blind or bleached one! He added; "I'd do know whether you have observed it in the varieties in man and dog. There are dogs with white skins and silky hair; with black skins and woolly noses; with long noses and snub noses; with long heads; with high cheeks and long heads; with high cheeks and ordinary ones, just as among black men and white men. There is also a suspicious resemblance between the color of Caucasians and just plain Indians, food condemned by Mohammedans. Indeed, very few Caucasians can equal in complexion the rosy, dainty freshness of a newlyshaved sucking-pig." The Senator was listening attentively and said nothing. Dixon resumed his reading: "Very frequently the so-called inferior races show precisely the physiological properties which, by revising all preconceived methods, place them at the head of humanity. After stating that superior races are infinitely removed from the anthroposphere, inferior races are nearest to them, the inferior races are all the facts which in this respect favor the whites and entirely forget those in which Negroes are shown to be favored. . . . "In the blood of modern Europeans flows that of Negroes who lived on the Continent at the end of the Quarternary epoch. . . . "Let us remember that, according to Giuseppe Sergi, Prof. Brinton and others, the white race, the ethnical pride of Europe, is only the direct result of the Euro-Africans established in Europe from time immemorial and who came from North Africa . . . . "But what of the skull of the Negro?" objected the Senator. "The brain of the black man is much smaller than the white man's complexity of the convolutions of the Negro's brain is also far less intricate. It is not unlike that of an ourang-outang. The sutures of the Negrosk also close much earlier than the white man's, to prevent the growth of the brain." (To be continued next week.)

It tells a story as well sustained—often better—than the feature picture, and the fun lies in humorous, life-like situations that are funny because they are so human and ridiculous. Harold Lloyd's introduction of this type of comedy in "Grandma's Boy" created a sensation among public and critics who were weary of the set-um-up-and-knock-em-down type of film. Lloyd has determined to keep comedy at this high plane, and in "Why Worry," his last picture for Hal Roach and his newest Pathecomedy, he does so, but in a little different manner than in "Gradma's Boy" and "Safety Last." "Why Worry" is straight farce. It can be likened best to the high-class musical comedy, with its slightly overdrawn plot, yet with the characters kept virtually true to life and true to the atmosphere in which they are set. The story is an adventurous affair in which the deceptively quiet-appearing Harold is the storm center of a revolution—a story of South American intrigue such as Richard Harding Davis and Harry delighted in. Lloyd crams it with laughable situations all of which are inexplicably apparent in the plot, and to keep a sustained plot moving and still maintain a staccato laugh effect is an achievement worthy of any comedian. So the new type of comedy that Harold Lloyd sponsors is funny in spite of everything; funny because it is so human. Slapstick is dead! Long live humor! Lloyd's laughs last! The picture appears at the Elmore theater next Wednesday and Thursday. Union University News Mr. Hall and Mr. Williams, of Pittsburgh Howardites, watched Union scrimmage at Richmond Friday.

BIG NAVY SCENES ARE SHOWN IN 'SILENT COMMAND' Spectacular Fox Production Shows Atlantic Fleet in Battle Array Entering Panama Canal Romance and World Intrigue Blended to Make Strong Story of Wide Spread Appeal There is no finer or more inspiring sight on earth or on the waters that ever have been easier than a fleet of battleships stepping ahead at full speed. During the great war, when New York harbor was the rendezvous of United States naval craft of all sorts and the mouth of the harbor was guarded by a powerful boom, it was one of the inducements to a trip down the bay on a pleasure boat to watch a warship or government transport slip quietly out to sea and steam away into the distance. The sense of bow and up-to-the-second effulence that they used craft always conveyed was matched by the grace of line and ease of motion that invariably accompanied its appearance. In "The Silent Command," the William Fox spectacular melodrama which is booked at the Elmore theater next Monday and Tuesday, the Atlantic fleet is shown during a visit to the Panama Canal. Several important scenes of the story were taken while the fleet was under way and also at anchor at the Coco Sola wavie phase. Shots of the different naval ships in the canal itself also were made. The crew of the cast, including Byron Douglas, who impersonated the Admiral of the fleet, were shown on board of these vessels. Other impersonators of officers are Edmund Lowe as captain, Richard Decatur and Gordon McEdward as Lieut: Gridley Nevins. Tom Moore At Best In Film Sensation Tom Moore's is a name for film fans to conjure with, so the announcement that he is starring in "Harbor Lights," the five-part Associated Exhibitors picture billed to show at the Elmore theater next Friday and Saturday, is good news. Moore entered pictures after a successful experience in stock, and immediately gained a warm place in the affections of many thousands of picturegoers. Intensely human, with a smile that radiates optimism, and an appealing personality, he is a most likeable person, and, instinctively, a charmer of the feminine beauty. But he is much more than that. At the very outset of his career he proved himself an actor of genius and of versatility and his greatest successes have been achieved in roles calling for more than a small display of vivid acting and energetic, virile aggressiveness. As Leut. David Kingsley, a sea commander. Mr. Moore is said to be cast in "Harbor Lights" in a part for which he is pre-eminently fitted, for it is a characterization calling for just such a combination of those qualities which few men on either the stage or the screen possess but which are united in him. Co-starred with Isobel Elsom, and surrounded by an admirable supporting cast, Tom Moore does probably the best work of his life in "Harbor Lights," a moving melodrama of sensational-storm scenes, realistic fist fights, spine-tingling encounters on the brink of cliff and thrilling lifeboat rescues, all incidental to a powerful story of romance and hate and passion White Man Arrested For Molesting Girls Loe Gill, a white man, was arrested last Friday evening by City Fireman Edward Worthy (colored) and lodged in jail on a charge of molesting several race girls. FEW people live in their own times. They live in some imagined romantic past which was just as common and matter-of-fact as the present is, or in some imagined millennial future which when it arrives will be just as common as today. Their attitude toward their own times is one of indifference or challenge. Yet today is the past brought up to date; today is the threshold of the future. If you can interpret today you have a finer view into tomorrow than the visionary who cannot see today for tomorrow's castles in the air. People are mentally suffering, are needlessly lacerating themselves, because they have assumed that Today means nothing and cannot be interpreted. Yet if today has no meaning, the past was a Blank and the future is a chaos. But today has a meaning, all the meaning that there is; it is the root, the chrysalis of all that is to come.

Musical Critics Loud in Praise of Miss Mitchell's Debut Into Realm of Serious Drama. NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—Miss Mitchell made a triumphant debut September 26th, into the realm of serious music! A concert recital under the auspices of Mrs. Bertha Des Verney, was presented in Mother A. M. E. Zion church, and critics have been loud in praise of her work. Lucien H. White says: "The Bach number, that pathetic, soul-wrenching cry of the Saviour uttered just after Judas had finished his fore-ordained task of treachery, 'Bleed and Break,' as portrayed in the 'Passion of St. Matthew,' was a fitting beginning for the program. She sang it with dramatic breadth and power and gave to all the poignancy of the Christ's grief. In her succeeding numbers, there was exhibited a past mastery in the art of singing. To each number, was given the proper tone color, whether of joy or sorrow, of triumph or despair, or the still, smooth flowing of pastoral expression." "For years this young woman has been known to the theater-going public as one of the most talented disciples of Thespis' the race has produced. Her work, first, in musical comedy in connection with her husband, Will Marion Cook; who won musical recognition years ago through his song writings, and then in drama, latterly with the Lafayette Players, gave her an exalted standing with the two classes of followers—the devotee of light and frivolous music and the student of serious drama. It was only her real musical intimate view of the aspirations she cherished to become an exponent of the higher forms of musical art, and if it was only this inner circle of her associates who knew of the long hours she spent in close and earnest study of lieder. On Friday night a special midnight ramble, beginning at 11:30 P.M., will be held. "Darling of the Rich" will be shown Thursday and Friday and "Up in the Air About Mary" will appear Saturday. The pictures for next week are announced in another part of this paper. You Can't Miss "By Gosh" Next Friday and Saturday, in addition to the regular attraction, comes "By Gosh" and the self-demolf minstrels, 50 home grown kildies will appear in vaudeville, and their anties cause more laughs than a circus clown. See 'em shake a wicked shoulder in the shimmy contest. Another attraction will be a public wedding from the stage next Friday evening at 8:30 P.M. A local couple will be the principals. "The Jungle Goddess," a serial picture, is appearing at the Saturday matinee shows. 1930 accented and modern, and of the soprano roles of many of the big operas. But it is a fact, vouched for and authenticated, that even while engaged publicly in the most frivolous of interpretations she was at the same time continuing her study of the work of Bach, Schubert, Brahms, Franz, Massenet, and the other composers of the severe classic school. "Much of this study has been done under the coaching of Melville Charlton, reaching 20 years back into the future, and it was under Mr. Charlton's guidance that Miss Mitchell prepared this first program of classic songs. "It is a meagre phrase to use in describing the recital to say it was a success. From the artistic point of view, it was, without question, an outstanding event. The years that have passed have served but to ripen and mature a great native talent, and although the hypercritical might say that there was absent a certain youthful verve and brilliance, in its stead was given an intensity of delineation and a purity of tonal utterance that more than compensated."

KING, Minister of the Compoundwealth. Love Triangle Ends In Murder Of Young Wife Desperate Lover Shoots Woman Who Refuses to Desert Her Husband for Him POLICE SEEK SLAYER PHILADELPHIA, Pa. Oct. 14. All Germantown was stirred on Wednesday morning when Julius Brown, a lodger at 119 W. Price street, shot and killed Mrs. M. Margaret Henderson, of the same address, because the woman refused to desert her husband and run away with him. After the shooting, Brown walked calmly away from the scene of the crime. Mrs. Henderson and her husband, Charles Henderson, had been living in the Price street house since February. Brown came there as a lodger in March and since that time he has been posing as a dear friend of Charles Henderson, the dead woman's husband. Burning within him, however, was the passionate desire for Henderson's attractive wife. Just what advances he made to her prior to the act of Wednesday morning are not known, but on Tuesday evening he drew down his pay at the steel mills, where he was employed, on the plea that he had some important business to attend. On Wednesday morning he did not go to work. Instead he came down stairs and lofted about until Mrs. Henderson, who works out by the day, was preparing to leave the house. It was then that Brown began to urge that she leave home and child and run off with him. The woman refused. Miss Ethel Thornton, another lodger in the house, witnessed the shooting. She says that when the woman refused to comply with Brown's demands he became insistent. Mrs. Henderson then started towards the door in an effort to escape him and at the same moment the man reached for his weapon. Miss Thornton, sensing the grave danger, flung herself upon him in an effort to prevent the tragedy, but he jerked her right arm free, and fired just as the womb would have let her side door which would have let her out into the back of her head. She staggered, turned around and lurched the man. Another shot stopped her and she fell face downward on the floor. The slayer then put his weapon back in his pocket, glanced threateningly at Ethel Thornton, who was kneeling beside the dead woman, and then whaked deliberately out of the house, shutting the door behind him. Miss Thornton notified the police at once. The body of Mrs. Henderson was rushed to the Germantown Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. She was then taken to the morgue. Charles Henderson, when notified of his wife's death, came home dazed by the shock. Mrs. Henderson was taken to this city from Gwington, K. Although police scoured the city and patrolled all avenues of escape, Brawn had not been captured up to a late hour today. He is thought to be hiding somewhere in the city. ACTION OF VIRGINIA SCHOOL IS CENSURED (Continued From Page One) For the school, headed by President S. V. Baker, and the city—immortalized itself here Saturday afternoon, when the southerners' attempt to have Washington and Jefferson place tradition above honor, and keep Charles West, a national figure, both because of his three-years' brilliant service on the Red and Black team and his sensational victory in the National Pentathlon at the Penn relays last year, fell through completely. West, born; zeared and educated in this town, is the "idol" of the school, a credit to the game and an example of the highest type of manhood of the Negro race. He has been an honor to the school, both as a student; where his ranking is among the highest, and as an athlete, adding to its prestige and dignity by his gentlemanly bearing, both on and off the field. One of the most popular men in the entire town and known to everyone, West has not allowed his prowess to go to his head, and Washington and Lee is receiving nation-wide censure for their action, which not only reeks of poor sportsmanship, but calls to mind all the more vividly, racial handicaps throughout Always Pleasant to Take If you suffer from indigestion, gassy, pains that crowd the heart, periodic bilious spells, sick headache or constipation, ask for Chamberlain's Tablets; convenient, agree without unreasonable objections; digitate; stimulate the liver, give easy regular movement with no pain or nausea.

Tradition of Honor? Washington: and Lee refused, point blank, to play Washington and Jefferson today unless West was taken from the lineup. They gave as their reason that it was a "tradition" of the school that their teams had never competed against a Negro athlete. That their action had been planned in advance was evidenced by the fact that as soon as the team arrived here, a conference was held. The team won. Honor won. For following a long distance telephone call, President Baker called: the game off. In a statement to the press, President Baker said: "I am sorry the unfortunate situation arose. I respect the tradition which Washington and Lee followed in refusing to play the game, but Wash-Jeff college is a northern school with traditions, too. It has never made any astute organization, but I am enrolling its students. Charles West, who was the cause of the controversy, has been one of the best students in the college for the last three years. He has been an honor to the school both as a student and as an athlete, adding to its prestige by his gentlemanly conduct and his efforts as an athlete. "S. V. BAKER, "President Washington and Jefferson College." Entitle Town Prohibited. When notice was received that the game had been called off, thousands of townpeople and visitors who had come here to witness the regime, were loud in their denunciation of the "crackers," which as "crackers," "yellow" and "bunch of quitters" were freely applied to them by theaters. An automobile bearing a Virginia license and supposed to belong to some of the players, was generously decorated with eggs and other refuse. It is rumored that one conductor on a local car refused to allow some of the players to ride the street car. A number of students and townpeople, headed by the band paraded the downtown streets here in noisy protest and disapproval of W. & L.'s action. Coach DeHart Speak Coach Jimmy DeHart, of Washington & Lee, said he had no part in his school's action. A former star of Pitt University, he showed a gold watch, which had inscribed on it the names of four Pitt relay runners, who competed at Penn, and the name of Jim Burwell, the flashy colored runner of the Panthers, was one of the four. W. & J.'s action is to be commended and the rebukes from the pens of sport writers all over the country are justified. Washington and Lee's action savors of highhandedness and un-Americanism, and no, true American will do aught but censure them. CITIZENS ORDERED TO LEAVE STOWE TOWNSHIP (Continued From Page One) September 7th, ordered all "Negroes who had not lived in Johnstown 7 years to leave" following a murder of two police officers by an identified Colored man. Mayor Caufield's edict was met with stern rebuke by the entire country, and Governor Pinchot ordered a rigid investigation, the result of which was the establishment of peace and the serving of notice to the Colored people that they need not leave Johnstown under such unlawful threats. Mayor Caufield gave the order as political propaganda, it was later learned, but he was defeated at the polls by a big majority. Local authorities have promised to act promptly in case the "vigilance" committee attempts to molest the quiet Colored citizenry of Stowe township. MISGUIDED LOVE CAUSED DEATH OF GIRL, ALLEGED Savage, after a. severe gruelling, made a confession at three o'clock Monday morning, admitting he killed the girl. He said, according to detectives, that he met the girl by appointment and when she gave him the envelope containing the money which was in payment of the "charm," he snatched it away from her. According to detectives, he said, when he found she had the envelope, he:struck her in the face with his closed flak and she fell against the small wall along the side of the carriage entrance. As she fell, Savage told the detectives, she screamed: "I'll give it to you," but he picked up a brick and threw it at her head. When the brick struck Miss Barthal, he said, she lay still and he then noticed the stone which weighed 70 pounds lying on the wall around the carriage en- LODGE AND FRAN LODGE AND FRATERNAL NOTES The B.

Carey, Speaks for Chicago If any one wishes to know the facts of the niggardy, ungrateful and traitorous actions of the man who refused to accept his charge at St. Mary A. M. E. Church in Chicago which paid a salary to deliver on that last bond, will ponder on these words of the most powerful voice on Chicago Southside and the rock of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Chicago—Bishop A. J. Carey. "I brought Mr. Harvey from a fifteen hundred dollar charge toucky to St. Mary, Chicago, which I hung to remember a $5,000.00 year position. On the third ballot for the election of delegates to the General Conference in 1924 after seven delegates had been elected and only two more to be voted on, then Rev. Harvey arose in speed to the speech in the running for not understanding his compers failed to elect him as a delegate; whereupon he left the conference and aired his vain and baseless charges to the newspapers, breaking his sacred vows to foolishly play in the hands of unfriendly, insulting, and disrespectful men that we are rid of those who cannot keep faith for the church of God and the followers of Allen must be marching on." It is only fair that the public should be apprised of the fact that Rev. Harvey was again appointed to St. Mary but felt it more spectacular to read the riot act, so he and a dozen others by actual count with hats in hand left the fold to fold streets of Chicago and to hold Sunday services in a school auditorium. I have not only heard but I have seen another minister in Chicago who imagined himself a Methodist Episcopal Church. One year after his unceremonious exit in the same city of Chicago, we find the world famous Church Big Bethel re-christened as Greater Bethel on one of the great boulevards of the world, housed in a superstructive valued at $500,000 with a fully equipped gymnasium, with community and recreational advantages second to none in America.

Even here the song was given to forerunner Stokes and Johnnie Scott, both of the above named address, were held for court for fighting and the woman in the case was given 10 days in jail, after all three principals had told the magistrate the wildest sort of conflicting fairy tales. The real trouble started when Peter Stokes and Johnnie Scott became intensely interested in a wandering lady who had consented to Stokes and Johnnie in the form of a fox and fox fused to conceive a point and as the spirits consumed during the discussion were of the moonshine variety, it was not long before the two men were fighting all over the room, while the lady had simply lost interest in the whole affair for the time. The coming of the police broke up the party before anybody got seriously hurt. Man Commits Suicide WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 11.

INVESTIGATION SHOWS THAT ALL PROPERTIES BELONGING TO MR. RATHBLOTT ARE CLEAR OF ALL INCUMBRANCES One of the crowning features of the land which is being sold at Mizpah, is that it is absolutely free and clear of all encumbrances. In order to verify and ascertain the correct status of the land, a number of prospective buyers employed Mr. Warner T. McGuinn, a reputable colored attorney, of Baltimore, to search the records and he found that the titles were guaranteed by the Guarantee Mortgage and Title Insurance Company, of Newark, N.J., and that high references were given by the People's Bank of Philadelphia of Mr. Rathblott's just dealings. Mr. McGuinn was also employed by these prospective buyers to ascertain the standing of Mr. Rathblott, and he found that Mr. Rathblott ranks among the leading business men of Philadelphia and that the property was clear of all encumbrances.

To Hell With Honor—" DOWN in Dixie is a school disgracing the names of Washington and Lee. That school teaches that "tradition" as interpreted by its president is above the sanctity of a contract. Since October 6 their college yell should be: "Give us tradition—to hell with honor." Washington and Lee university signed a contract to play a football contest with Washington and Jefferson college at Washington, Pa. The contract was signed long ago, and the date fixed at the time the contract was signed was October 6, 1923. On the date fixed, the Southern team appeared in Washington, Pa., to play the contest as per contract—except one thing. The Negro member of the Northern team had to be dismissed from the team before the Southerners would perform their part of the contract. They demanded that Charles West be banished from the Washington and Jefferson team. "Tradition," they declared forbade their participation in any contest against any Negro. They plead "tradition" against the honor of a contract. And they tried to thrust their prejudice upon the whole town of Washington by keeping quiet on the Negro question until the very last moment. Washington rose to the occasion, and the serpent of prejudice sheaked out or Pennsylvania, followed by rotten eggs and fragments of bricks, plus the anger and disgust of Washington. The Southerners knew they had signed a contract. They knew the Negro was a member, in excellent standing, of the Northern team. They came to Washington expecting to see Washington surrender all her self respect to their diabolical prejudices. They were a sad lot, as they went back to their president and reported: "Mr. Prejudice, Washington has a tradition too." Washington is the home of Charles West. He was born there; he grew to manhood there; he has been educated there, from the lowest grades to the senior class of Washington and Jefferson. To have withdrawn West from the team to satisfy Southern "tradition" would have discounted all Washington, its schools, its morals, its refinement, its sense of justice, its history, and its own Washington and Jefferson. This was the answer to Southern "tradition," and it was conclusive. Negroes all over the country are proud of Washington and Jefferson's Democratic President. He stood on the same foundation on which this country is supposed to have been founded. So oftheh, men are afraid to be just—afraid of tradition. There are a few men left to save the ideals of the forefathers of this land. We must hold their hands aloft forever. And, too, Negroes, all over this country are proud of Charles West. He is a gentleman, a student, an athlete, and a citizen of his town. He has reflected credit upon his town, his family, his fellow citizens, his college, his community. Upon him did President Baker predict every word he said to the Southerners. It was West who had lived up to every tradition known to Washington, and all Washington stands on that tradition. Negro Servants As Witnesses NEGROES all over the country ought to learn a valuable lesson from the Stokes case, now in progress in New York City. Mr. Stokes is trying to establish certain facts out of the mouths of certain witnesses. He has used a colored maid as one witness to establish that Mrs. Stokes visited a gentleman's apartment on certain occasions. We do not know what will be established in the Stokes case, and we are not interested. We are interested in the impressions our people make, in and out of courts. It is to be expected that the testimony of the colored maid will be met by the testimony of some white witness. We know how easy it is to impeach a Negro witness by producing opposite testimony from the lips of white witnesses. It is not a matter of justice, but a matter of history that white people lay very little stress upon the credibility of Negro servants as witnesses. Indeed, the South places little or no value upon the testimony of any Negro witness, and especially servants. This is why the South employs Negro servants: Almost any indiscretions may be committed by whites in the presence of their Negro servants, and there is not the slightest fear that the indiscretions will become known. If the servants tell what they saw, no one will believe the story. If the servants ever become court witnesses, the testimony of one white person impaaches anything any Negro servant can say. This lack of credibility is the practice among whites. If it were different, their very lives might be in danger under certain circumstances. The servant is entrusted with secrets, with life, with property, with damaging facts at first hand, with the knowledge that his exposures would amount to naught, even in court. This stigma can never be removed as long as servants allow themselves to become witnesses in cases where confidences have to be violated. There is something mean in violating confidences and while the whole truth may often be told, the violation of confidences is looked upon as "squealing," and squealing is the lowest kind of practice known to man. We do ourselves very, little good, and perhaps a great deal of harm, when we offer ourselves as witnesses in cases where our testimony, though as truthful as the gods themselves, is promptly impeached by the words of others whose credibility enjoys a higher degree of confidence than ours. The better practice is to have ears that hear not, and eyes that see not, and a tongue which is perfectly bridled at all times. Better not to remember at all than to remember correctly and be impeached before the world as a liar. IN PITTSBURGH, East Liberty means something. To the man outside, the name has no significance. In a few years the name will mean a great deal more than it does today. The most casual observer must be impressed with the gradual development of the East End section of Pittsburgh. Large business is taking hold out here, and there has developed quite a bid for every kind of business to settle in that section. Of course it is not contended that the East End section will displace the "down town" portion of the city, but it may well be urged that East End is the "coming part of the town." This statement is based upon the amount of capital invested, the kind of industries one sees in the East End, and the type of business men who have taken hold of the development of the section. There is a distinct and almost separate market to be found in East Liberty. The banks are operating almost entirely on local business and local investments. As the section enlarges, every activity will grow and develop. Ten years from this date will bring great changes in the whole section. The Pittsburgh Negroes who live in East End, or in Homewood and Wilkinsburg, had better sieze present opportunities and take hold of business with a new grip. In a short time the population will be twice what it is today, and business will be making new demands. The wise ones who see the possibilities are making ready for the days now rapidly approaching. The banking interests are getting ready to take care of the investments soon to be made out there. The more powerful the banks, the more rapidly will business develop. The time to get a firm hold on the growing enterprises of the district is right now. Get the banks open, get money in them, and get started before the district becomes crowded. Keep Howard in Front PERHAPS little is said of the subject in Washington, but in other cities we are treated to a veritable attack upon certain conditions which prevail at Howard university. There is little reason for the attack, but its verility is very pronounced! We refer to the question of a larger number of race representatives on the medical school faculty. It is generally accepted now that Howard has a medical school which not only equals any in the country, but stands among the very foremost in the United States. Howard has a reputation which speaks quite as loud as its many friends. It is known that Howard does not graduate large classes. Indeed, it has been said that a very small percentage of each class is crowned with the coveted M. D. Perhaps Howard is too "hard" for many of those who clamor for a larger number of Negro members on the medical staff. We have some knowledge of the medical staff, and if Howard's medical school is to be designated "hard" because of the presence of certain professors, then Howard should remain hard, and thereby remain the Howard she has been for these many years. Few schools have such men as Dr. Lamb. And while he is not now at Howard, his absence is said to be due to certain clamors for a Negro professor to fill the chair held by him. This is the very man who developed one of our own men into a competent eye specialist only to see Negroes refuse to patronize him. It is said that Dr. Lamb decided to eliminate Negro patients entirely in order to make it possible for a Negro specialist to demonstrate his ability. Then, there are other men like Dr. Parker, Dr. Fowler, Dr. Reid, whose names mean so much in medicine. These men have kept Howard in the very front in medicine, and their equals are not to be found idling around the country. Medicine is developing rapidly. But students are responsible for this rapid development. We have but a few real medical students among our group. By a few, we mean just that. The average Negro physician is busy making money, and the science of medicine is left to other heads and hands. Until we develop wealth enough to enable some of our men to devote their whole time to research in medicine, we had better delight in the fact that Howard has the best men available, and our boys may sit at their feet and get the best instruction known to the profession. When Winter Comes THE rapidly retarding Sun is leaving his warning as he retires to his Winter quarters. His long shadows, and his cooling rays tell us that soon we shall be face to face with King Blizzard who knows no favorites. Preparation for winter season ought to be made with some method and regularity. There is a certainty about the return of winter which our people fail to appreciate. Just as surely as we see the leaves fall, just so surely will snow fall, and snow means winter, cold, freezing, suffering. To the man who loves comfort, to the man whose little ones look to him for every supply for every returning want, to the husbandman who weathers every season alike, we extend the simple admonition: Winter is coming! : CRISIS : By Edgar A. Guest There are moments of terror and dread Which rob us of reason and sense; Into every man's scheme, into every man's dream. Comes the time when the struggle grows tense. And the thing you would do with a grin, With nothing at stake on the shot, Is not easy to do when the prize that's in view Hangs on whether you make it or not. The test of the game isn't skill, But how do you stand to the strain? When your skies are all fair you have courage to spare, But how do you battle the rain? And what of that moment of doubt, When to falter means failure for you? With your nerves in control, can you go for your goal And prove what you're able to do? It's the crisis which makes you or breaks, It's that difficult time of suspense When the end is in doubt and you're fighting it out With nerves that are tingling and tense, Then if your hand trembles you lose, And you fail if your eye be not true, For all cunning is vain, when you come to the strain If you're not the master of you. Pertinent Paragraphs From the Colored Press Pertinent Paragraphs From the Colored Press Those adjutators who would discourage Negro migration north, will be informed by the real facts that there is not the peril awaiting the blacks from the north which they would have us believe. Meanwhile, the colored people who go north are not the type that read newspapers to any large extent and are almost uninformed, on these matters. Those who are intelligent enough to appreciate the propaganda also know that it is more propaganda than it is a condition to be feared. There will have to be other means if they would stay the tide of the exodus. Better wages, more equity in the distribution of the public taxes, justice in the courts, absence of humiliation on public carriages and a manifest good-will in creating sanitary and convenient conditions in Negro communities, protection by the officers of the law, the appointment of more colored men to help clear up the immoral government of the Negro districts and adding to these the building of less shacks and of more decent and comfortable homes for colored habitation will do more in one six months to calm this restlessness and curb immigration than all of the pretentious editorials and speech-making can ever do by a many thousand fold. Coolidge and Discrimination! CHICAGO ENTERPRISE. A Washington dispatch to the Chicago Enterprise, divulged that President Coeidge, in his quiet but determined manner, has passed the word along TO CUT OUT ALL RACE DISCRIMINIATIONS IN GOVERNMENTAL DEPARTMENTS. As Vice President, Coolidge became fully aware of the evil perpetrations on colorful employees. He had no patience or toleration of it. President Coolidge has taken SWIFT AND CERTAIN measures to suppress such discriminations, and the "victims" are rejoicing with inexpressible gratitude to the President. The K. K. K. in Michigan! MICHIGAN STATE NEWS In the south the Klan continues to be a selfish, brittish barrier to what the south most needs—understanding. In Michigan it is becoming a malicious, insidious and harmful menace to the very sovereignty of the state—just as it is in Oklahoma. "Make Black Respectable" CALIFORNIA NEW AGE DISPATCH The only real solution to the Negro problem is along the line of character, manhood and efficiency. We must make black respectable and a token of the real manhood that underlies the black skin. The young Negro must be the equal of his white schoolmate not only in the matter of learning, but in the matter of life and fruitfulness. If we can excel our white schoolmate in the one hundred yard dash, we ought to excel him in the life dash for wealth and prominence and power. It is a poor superiority that manifests itself only in the foot race and the prize fight. Baptist Progressing! NATIONAL BAPTIST VOICE The National Baptist Convention in its passage down the tide of time, from its organization until this its latest annual meeting, has held more to surpass the 1923 session. Others have been great, but this was the greatest. This is true, and pre-eminently so; because Baptist leadership all along the line and Baptist constituencies following that leadership are progressing. Rank and file are awakening to the stern duties lying before them, and this means much, yea, everything, for the great program of service already outlined and set for Baptist achievement. The Republicans! N. Y. NEWS The Republican party in the nation has strayed far from its moorings. It has almost forsaken its soul. It has turned its back upon the lowly rungs of ambition's ladder, by which it did ascend and by which it did ascend the utmost round. In gaining almost the whole American world, it has almost lost its soul. It has forgotten the causes that called it into being and sustained it in days of adversity as well as in prosperity. It has forgotten that it was the liberty of the Black American that gave it its reason for being. SQUIRBS The K. K. K. claim to represent 100 per cent. Americanism. America was founded upon the Christian religion. It is known that Jesus Christ is the founder of Christianity, and Jesus Christ was a Jew. If He should come to earth and ask to join the K. K. K. He would be turned down flat. And the K. K. K. is 100 per cent. Christian. But why blaspheme any further. Oklahoma has decided to take her disputes to court and find out what the law has to say on lawlessness. Not a bad idea. Secretary Slemp has George Christian beat a city block when it comes to "letting the brother" see the President. But, then, Mr. Slemp knows the "brother" a little better than did Mr. Christian. Garvey said he was punished by his "light skinned enemies." We don't get you, Marcus. Are you still referring to Pickens? VIEWS OF OTHER EDITORS President Baker, of Washington and Jefferson, took a course unassailable on the grounds of justice when he decreed that the institution would not bow to the prejudice of Virginia visitors and remove from the football team a Negro player eligible under intercollegiate rules. It was a decision such as the young Southerners merited, though it prevented the football game scheduled at Washington on Saturday. The player in question has been on the Washington and Jefferson team for three years and in that time has met with no discrimination. His record is that of an athlete of high class and he has been regarded as one of the stars of the Washington and Jefferson aggregation. He appears to have won his standing regardless of his race and is entitled to the greater credit. To have set him aside at the behest of the Southerners would have been an outrage. It has been no secret that a Negro was a Washington and Jefferson player. Why then Washington and Lee ever signed a contract for an intercollegiate game is a mystery, if they did not intend to play with the offending member. If they thought they could bluff their opponents they now know their error and it has cost them dearly. And the institution which would not yield to a prejudice has done itself honor. It is the business of a college to broaden mind and develop character and it falls short of its true mission if it cannot recognize worth beneath a dark skin. Adherence to a principle is of far greater value than playing a football game. College football players are picked for what they can do on the gridiron, not because of family tree or social qualities, though they may have, or not have, either or both. It is certain the young Washington and Jefferson Negro was selected because he could fill a position better than anyone else available and as such he seems to have fulfilled expectations. He, then, is entitled to just treatment, the more so because of the existing prejudice against his race. Far better that Northern colleges have no relations with the South than that they be unjust. THE retort of the president of Washington and Jake University to the football coach of Washington and is refreshing. There had been a clash between the schools over the playing of a Negro, one Charles W. the Washington and Jefferson team. Weeping at the lowing dispatch describing what happened in the prowess. WASHINGTON, Pa., Oct. 6.—The scheduled football game between Washington and Jefferson and Washington and Lee colleges was declared off officially today when the latter team refused to play against Charles West, star Negro halfback on the Red and Black team for the last three years and winner of the national pentathlon championship at Philadelphia, last year. On arrival of the Washington and Lee team Graduate Manager Richard A. Smith protected against playing West, saying it was one of the traditions of the Southern institution that its athletes should not compete against a Negro player. Coach John W. Heisman declined to bar West from the game, pointing out that he was a bonafide student and had represented the college in three previous years, this being his final year. The final decision in the controversy was made by the heads of the two institutions. Dean Harry Campbell, of Washington and Lee faculty, informed of the situation by long-distance telephone, gave out instructions that the team should not play against Negro athlete. The ultimatum was delivered to President S. S. Baker, of Washington and Jefferson, who upheld Coach Heisman's ruling that West should not be barred. "I am sorry the unfortunate situation arose," President Baker was quoted as saying, "I respect the tradition which Washington and Lee followed in refusing to play the game, but Washington and Jefferson college IS A NORTHERN SCHOOL WITH TRADITIONS, TOO. IT NEVER HAS MADE ANY DISTINCTION AGAINST COLOR OF CREED. CHARLES WEST, WHO WAS THE CAUSE OF THE CONTROVERSY, HAS BEEN ONE OF THE BEST STUDENTS IN THE COLLEGE FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS. HE HAS BEEN AN HONOR TO THE SCHOOL, BOTH AS A STUDENT AND AS AN ATHLETE. "Traditions, too," says the president of W. & J. honorable traditions, too, say we. It should be rem that the position taken by Washington and Jefferson as high in ethics above Washington and Lee university the. distinguished Thomas Jefferson was above the Gen. Lee. While the whole group were slave to slavery did trouble the conscience of Jefferson. It was who, when reflecting on that wicked institution, utter words: "I TREMBLE FOR MY COUNTRY WHEN FLECT THAT GOD IS JUST." Washington and Lee university should change its to "Jack Dempsey university." Like the unsporting prize fighter, it stands not on character and courage upon color and creed. Congratulations to Washington and Jefferson. IT IS notorious that men seldom know when to retire constantly put off for tomorrow what ought to be today. The prize fighter going to engage in one bout and retire—but most likely is knocked out in the fight. The singer is going to retire after one more when lo and behold Geraldine Farrar is shadowed by youthful Jeritza at the Metropolitan Opera House York. The Kaiser was going to pursue the arts of after the World war—but a peace with victory for the forced him into a humiliating peace without much art and activity are so alluring that man hates to surrender seldom retires; he is generally retired. Joseph Cauffiel, fameless mayor of Johnstown, Johnstown folks he is sick and tired of political agile life and that he will retire on January 1. It seems the Mayor has been in public life for 15 years. He is a fendant in 74 suits aggregating one million dollar in ages. All this he has borne up under well till his down for all Negroes to leave Johnstown who had no in that city seven years. So out he goes—he has gone, but does not k Seemingly the people made the decision, for him be made it. Then along came this political Poe—"Qu Mavor, nevermore!" One should retire before he is retired. This the and potent lesson of history. Yet as Hegel said: "Wr from history that men never learn anything from him. This writer penned the first editorial of the country. Courier on the Mayor's autocratic order. We said: "The nearness of a ruling class to the end of its re be judged by the serenity of the measures to which sorts." A week later exactly the mayor went nominiously to defeat, trailing a poor fourth in the alty primaries. We are not fortune tellers, but we things! A Home Song HENRY VAN DYKE I turned an ancient poet's book. And found upon the page; "Stone walls do not a prison make. Nor iron bars a cage." Yes, that is true, and something more: You'll find where'er you room. That marble floors and gilded walls Can never make a home. But every house where love abides And friendship is a guest, Is surely home, and home, sweet home For there the heart can rest. —The Girls'
