Methodist Hosts Gather For Big Conventions REV. DRAKE'S WIFE MAY TELL SPICY STORY the great Blue Book of man achievement can be closed as complete about the name of a Pitts- rgh youth, William S. ndolph. This young american, fired with the all that makes other men hire, entered the oratori- contest among the High Schools of Pittsburgh. He is the best at his own pool, Schenley, and was, before eligible to meet the winners of the other pools. He met them, and acquired. He then met the best from all the County high Schools, and he con- faced again. He now faces the winners from all the high Schools from all the Pennsylvania. If twins the coming contest, will then meet the best from the eastern section of Pennsylvania, and if vic- crowns him there he receives a $1,2000 scholarship at the school of his choice. He then moves on to Washington, D. C., to enter the National Contest and if victory smiles upon there he will be de- dared the best in the coun- t among High School stu- dents, and will receive a prizé commensurate with the effort. The subject assigned by the High Schools with which young Randolph first competed was The Constitution; with the privilege granted each orator to deal at the Constitution as he he desired. Randolph elected to sit in his own way, and his subject is: "The Constitution is in the Hands of the American People." With this subject, he was declared twice a winner, and his prospects of more stories are more than re- This young Negro, born and the swiftest civilization known to man, born of parents educated and reared, this scion of a land where "Freedom Reigns" a broken through the high wall of propaganda, and has defied the sages who have declared that real inferiority and the Negro are hopelessly inseparable. He has done more. He has given the lie to Arthurribane. He has given the lie to the boastful claims of the disciples of Nordic Supremacy; he has literally scattered the theory of the "One Hundred Per Cent Americanism" as heralded by the Ku Klux Klan, and he has taught the American public that the Constitution of the United States is the common rock from which he hawn our country and civilization—and finally, he has demonstrated that the United States, as well as its Constitution, is in perhaps the safest hands when situated to Negroes of the type of Rundolph. Indeed, it seems the rony of fate that, in an intellectual contest, designed to redelegate our American truth to a renewed patriotic loyalty and thus give that country a more vigorous Americanism, a Negro should lift the Jew, the Protestant and the Catholic alike in building for the Constitution a new kind of defense against the rapidly encroaching enemies of our Republic.

Following his elevation as titular head of the Church in Pennsylvania a luncheon was given in his honor in the ballroom of the Belvue-Straftford Hotel. To this luncheon many persons had subscribed in the varicus parishes of the city: Each person was given a ticket with a table number on it. When the guests entered the room they proceeded to their respective tables. Then it was found that someone had assigned all of the Negro guests to three tables behind the large pillars which support the balcony of the ballroom. There was a special table for the bishops, but the two Negro bishops in attendance—Bishop Denby and Bishop Delaney—were seated at the restricted tables. Archdeacon Phillips was also at one of the tables colored. Japanese and Chinese divinity students were among the (Continued on Page 8, col. 5) Perry King Arrested WINSTON-SALEM, N.

ROLLO WILSON CAMDEN, N. J., May 8—Dr. Charles Cooper Spear, white, who was freed some months ago of a murder charge growing out of the fatal shooting of Edward Lawrence, more than 13 years ago, was the defendant before Circuit Court Judge Donges in a suit by Mrs. Matilda Waters, a widow of the man and since remarried, who demands $10,000 damage. At the time of the shooting Mrs. Waters was the wife of the woman that since the death of her first husband she has been compelled to support her 13-year-old invalid daughter. She avers that by reason of Dr. Spear having bereft her of her husband and the consequent support he should compensate her. After Dr. Spear shot and killed Lawrence, an employee, he was a fugitive for nearly 13 years. In the meanwhile he had been indicted for murder. He surrendered, but Supreme Court Justice Katzenbach ordered a nolle proseuse when it was established the doctor had acted in self-defense. Randolph Is Again Winner In Big Contest Randolph Is Again Winner In Big Contest Young William S.

Schenley High School yelled itself hoarse when the name, "William Randolph," was announced as winner. "All right," shouted the cheer leader. "let's give him the locomotive. Ready, go—" and such screaming could only be heard from a victorious high school chorus. Randolph was obviously the favorite from beginning to end. When he started to the platform an ovation came from the audience that doubled what any other student received. While he was speaking a pin-fall could have been heard in any part of the vast and spacious (Continued on Page 8, Col. 4) Many Killed As Tornado Sweeps South ATLANTA, Ga., May S—In one of the fiercest tornadoes that ever struck the South for several days last week more than 79 lives are reported lost, with over 500 injured and missing.

C., May 24. Replying to the criticism of his "Sanhedrin" conference held in Chicago in February by Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of The Crisis, Prof. Kelly Miller, dean of the Junior College at Howard University, has issued a statement which reads in part as follows: "Some one called my attention to the May issue of the Crisis, which contains a pointed criticism of the Sanhedrin by the learned and brilliant editor. As usual the opinion breathes an air of finality for which the learned editor is famous. He belittles the movement because he did not indulge in vacuous denunciation and sonorous pronouncements on housing, intermarriage, union labor and the Klu Klu Klan. Wonders if the learner editor had lost his grip on domestic conditions with his brief column abroad. While chasing the chimera of the Pan-African Conference and functioning for the moment as enjoy extraordinary to the Court of Nicaragua, perhaps the common place procedure of the Negro Sanhedrin seemed prosaic and tame. Garryn in his robes as Emperor of Africa and DuBois arrayed in the glamour and glory of ambassadorial splendor form indeed interesting spectacles for the American Negro to look at." New York Boy Running In Mayoralty Contest NEW CITY CITY, May 8-Robert Alston McNichols, boy candidate for mayor in the Thomas Jefferson pilgrimage contest, conducted by the New York World, did not seem to get the whole hearted support of the organization in Harlem as was the case in other sections of the city where Y.

"She did," he continued, "and on another time I watched the house and saw my wife through the window in a night dress."

Plan To Erect War Memorials To Dead Heroes Movement on Foot to Place Monuments on French Battlefields—Have Unique Publicity Plan. CINCINNATI, O., May S—Information has come to the Cincinnati office of the Pittsburgh Courier that a movement is being, organized through a French American committee to erect monuments on the battle fields of France in honor of Negro soldiers who fought and died in the late World war. The principal medium through which these fuds are to be collected is a moving picture description of native African life, black men going to war and fighting on the French front at Verdun and the Mons—two battle grounds upon which the civilization of the world was at stake. These pictures are doubtless in the million dollar film class as they depict scenes gotten under conditions not ordinarily obtaining in the film world. There are-shown in them dramatic and tragic perspectives that could not have occurred except by the coincidence of fate, for it required the fomentation of a world conquest to make them possible; a stifle for the supremacy of man as considered best in modern culture. In this battle for supremacy the Negro is for the first time shown in the glorious attitude of helping to save the accumulated progress of alien races. These pictures will be exhibited in the larger populated Negro centers of America and from a historic and patriotic viewpoint should arouse a furore of interest and excitement in Black America. W. L. Anderson, printer of Cincinnati, is a member of the French committee and, has been delegated and authorized to raise contributions for this Monument Fund. Mr. Anderson has opened an official nationwide campaign to aid in the erection of monuments in Africa and France to honor Negro Soldiers, who died, that civilization might continue to endure. Read the Pittsburgh Courier for further information. Write L. Lloyd Stone for information regarding the contest.

It was learned afterwards that eight of the jurors had stood for acquittal and four for the imposition of a light penalty. It was originally charged that Collins had assaulted a white woman while covering her companion with a revolver. The new evidence established that the white woman was of ill repute, that Collins had been at home at the time the assault was alleged to have been committed, that the original description of the assailant given by the woman did not, fit Collins, that her testimony was contradictory, and that it would have been impossible for the action to have taken place in a crowded part of the city in which she asserted it had occurred. The strength of the new evidence and of the case made by the N. A. A. C. P. in behalf of Collins is shown by the fact that only four out of a jury of twelve Texans wanted Collins convicted in the second trial and those four wanted, not the death sentence, but a light penalty.

Rogers Haircut Tells Flower City Elks Race Must Demand Fair Chance and Fight for Rights; Use Ballot Recalls Work of Frederick Douglass and Mentions Crispus Attucks; Wants Whites to Read Negro History. ROCHESTER, N. Y., May 8.—That "a large portion of the ministry of the United States is raving and ranting about the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment, but saying not a word of protest against violation of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, which safeguard the rights of the Negro race," was the statement of Armond W. Scott of Washington, speaking last Tuesday night at the eighteenth annual public service of the Flower City Lodge of Elks, held at Zion Methodist Church. "I hope and believe that I am a Christian," said the speaker, "but I do not believe in anybody's religion who draws a line of demarcation on account of color or creed. Nothing that sayors of Jim-crowism' and race prejudice can be found in the Bible. Receives $20,000 In Romance Extending Beyond The Grave Speaks of Douglass "The finest and most illustrious character the race has ever produced is Frederick Douglass, who spent twenty-five of the best years of his life in this splendid city, in battling against the fearful and cursed institution of slavery and to secure her liberation. In full realization that this country could not exist half slave and half free. "If the white people of this country would stop for a moment, and in an honest and sympathetic way inform themselves and their children to the wonderful and unparelled people of this country and this country in the last fifty years against every obstacle, then there would be no so-called race problem. "For after all, if only the professing Christians in this country could be taught and persuaded to believe in that portion of the Scripture, which says, 'Of one flesh and blood God created all races to dwell upon the face of the earth,' then injustice and race prejudice would no longer be a blot on the fair name of our glorious country. Race Always Loyal "We want the children of the dominant race to know that our group has never given birth to an assassin of a President, or a traitor who has ever taken up arms against his country's flag. We want them to read our histories, by our own historians, so that they will know that the Negro has always been loyal and faithful to his country's flag, and that the first blood ever spilt on the altar of American independence flowed from the veins of a Negro, Crispus Attucks, on Boston Commons. "We must, at all times, cry aloud for equal justice and fair play. All we want is an equal chance in the face of life and we are willing to rise or fall, according to our merits or short-comings. We sing the same songs, think the same thoughts, have the same hopes, and worship the same God as all other races do, and we are entitled to a square deal. But we let us not lose hope or cour- Delaware Doctor Chosen Alternate To G.O.P.Sessions Mrs. Alice Dunbar-Nelson Elected Delegate To Big State Convention. Special to The Pittsburgh Courier WILMINGTON, Del., May 8.—The Republican State convention of Delaware which was held in Dover last Tuesday was eventful from the standpoint of the Colored voter: For the first time in the history of the state a Colored man was elected an alternate to the National convention which shall meet in Cleveland next June. The person selected was Dr. Samuel E. Gilbert a well known physician of this city, Dr. Elbert was placed in nomination by Mrs. Alice Phinar Nelson who was the only Colored woman elected as a delegate to the State convention she having been elected from the Sixth ward. Charles H. Colburn was elected as a member of the State committee defending Dr. Conwell Banton. Mr. Colburn was elected to the State committee after having been defeated by the Coleman duPont forces two years ago. This defeat of Colburn was looked upon as a political blunder of the worst kind as the State went Democratic. It be said to the credit of the duPont forces that the past two years brought them some political wisdom for in the election of Dr. Elbert as alternate to the national convention, and the return of Colburn to the State committee, they have done two things that will materially aid in bringing back to the party some of those who left it two years ago. The men and women of the Sixth ward rallied around the candidacy of Mrs. Dunbar-Nelson and she was elected as a delegate to the State convention with one of the largest) votes accorded any of the candidates for delegate. Some of the ministers of the A. M. E. Z. connection are objecting to the bishops being financial custodians of the church's finance—wherefore? The national song of Liberia, Africa, begins with "In joy and gladness with our hearts united, we'll shout the freedom of a race be-nighted."

A check for $20,000 received by Mrs. S. S. Dupee, 2035 St. Peter street, was the culminating episode of a romance which extended beyond the grave. The check was part of a legacy left by Dr. E. H. Brown, of Isleville, Ky., to the woman he was to have married here last December. Dr. Brown died in November of last year. He also left to his fiancée a house valued at $15,000. The recipient of the legacy has left for Kentucky to claim the remainder of the estate, because the 'darkest hour is just before the break of day!' Migration to North "The best thing that has happened for the race in the past fifty years has been the wholesale migration of our people from the South, and it is the natural result of the desire for freedom and safety. "The most formidable weapon in the hands of any American citizen today, and the greatest safeguard of human rights, is the ballot, and our people must be taught how to wisely and safely use the power of the ballot because the power of the disfranchised in practically every Southern state today, and those of us who live in the North, East and West must no longer be political slaves, but vote for men and measures that stand for human liberty. The time has come when the color of a man's skin shall be no longer an index to his politics. Our natural political bent has been with the Republican party, but our salvation lies in independent movement." THE NEW YORK TIMES Armond W. Scott Court Releases Boy Charged With Attack On Couple Court Releases Boy Charged With Attack On Couple Following a hearing before Magistrate DeWolfe in Morals Court, Jacob Miller was released without bail. The police officials of the city declare that Miller is 16 years of age and that the crime with which he is charged comes under their jurisdiction, and are making an investigation to fasten the crime on Miller. It is alleged that Miller entered the home of F. H. Tooker, who resides near Miller's parents, by a rear window, securing a lawn mower, and attacked the couple while they were asleep in bed, striking them over the head and body with the roller, inflicting very painful injuries. Morris Brown Needs $80,000, Report Shows ATLANTA, Ga., May 8 — Commencement exercises at Morris Brown College began last Wednesday at Big Benchel church, after a meeting of the board of trustees at which Treasurer L.

Pretty Wife Is Killed By Aged Husband WILSON, N., C. May S.—One of the most brutal morders in the history of Wilson county was unearthed here last. Thursday when Sheriff Glover, accompanied by several deputies, went to Spring Hill township in response to a telephone call telling of the brutal murder of Mrs. Cora Lee Cobb, a beautiful young woman, by her aged husband. According to Sheriff Glover the woman was aged 23 years and was murdered by her husband - Ernest Cobb, aged 55. The woman's body was found lying on the floor, her head completely cut to pieces with an axe, and her brains strewn over it floor. Nearby lay an axe covered with blood. According to evidence gathered at the inquest Ernest Cobb came to Spring Hill from Hobgob, Va., while his wife formerly lived in Norfolk, Va. It was brought that Cobb did not work Friday, Saturday o. Monday. Late Monday evening he approached Willie Williams with an offer to sell him $15. Williams said he figured it was a good buy, but had only $5 to buy, which he gave to Cobb, telling him that he would give him the remainder in a day or so. This Cobb agreed to. Cobb then gave Williams the key to the house, telling him to get the furniture at his convenience. Williams went home and after finishing supper, started to get the furniture. He unlocked the door and walked into the house and when he reached the kitchen he found the body of the dead woman. He rushed out of the house and then went into the construction shop where he and Cobb were employed and told his fellow employees about the finding of the body, and the sheriff was then notified. Cobb made his escape, it was said, and county officials, are making every effort to apprehend him. HALE CASE MAY BE DISMISSED NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 8 — (By A. N.

His sermon last night was on "God's Majesty, Power and Infallibility. He said in part: "If God is truth, then both demands that racial hatred and prejudices must be driven from our minds and permit unselfish motives to govern our individual dealings to other races of men, but children of one common Father."

Walker was arrested for taking the fruit and seafood in tin from a Fifth avenue restaurant, and he admitted that his fingers, had slipped. He told Magistrate Hough that he was washing there in lieu of other more remunerous work, to dance, dinging, and he expressed a desire to show the court that he wasn't telling a falsehood. So the room was cleared and Walker did his stuff. Now Walker's walking in free air looking for dancing work. IN MEMORIAM In sad and loving remembrance of our dearest mother, Ann Maria Benton, who fell asleep in Jesus May 3, 1923: More and more each day we miss you, Friends may think the wound is healed; But they little know the sorrow That lies within our face concealed; The rolling stream of time rolls on; But still the vacant chair, Oceans smile, the love the voice, Of our Dead Mother, who once sat Sadly missed by her daughters, Mrs. Nannie Monroe and her Josephine Gordon; grand-daughters, Mrs. Viola Turner and Mrs. Carrie Hayes; great grand-daughter and grandson and host of friends. IN MEMORIAM In loving memory of my dear mother, Mrs. Julia Bacon Richards who died one year ago, May 9, 1923: Tonight the stars are gleaming in the sky. There sleepeth without dreaming. One we loved but could not save. The rolling stream of life passes on. But still the vacant chair, Recalls the smile, the love, the voice of one who once sat there. Sadly missed by her mother, husband, sons and daughter. In Brooks IN MEMORIAM In memory of Stanley W. Jefferson, who died May 8, 1919: The blow was hard, the shock severe; We little thought his death so near, His pleasant smile for all he met, His kind heart we shall ne'er forget. Hour by hour we saw him fade and slowly pass away, In our house we prayed that he might longer stay With patience he suffered, his troubles were sore, But now they are ended, he suffers no more. We laid him down in the quiet of rest, The parting was painful, but God knows best. —Sadly missed by the family.

A trip to the Argentine last winter brought itm a few shekels and a Kk. 0, at the hands of that eminent financier of the pampas, Luis the Angel, scion of the house of Firpo. <. ° Now he is going to travel to this village for another sleeping potion. Mr. Jeems Dougherty, who is Godfrey's ares angel, announces that he is going to demand a fight with Harry Wills. We wonder if the Baron remembers that the Boche was going to take Verdun, ‘Yes, James, when Hilldale is admitted to the National League, then will Godfrey fight Wis. We won’t say why, but there are two reasons. Our writing brethren in New York are tuking too much for granted. ‘They start a sports writers’ Alliance. They say that after a-certain time they: will let men from other cities join in.. One writer frankly admits that the purpose of the organization is to try to stifle competition from out- oftewn papers. (I quote Magill of the New: York News in that issue of three weeks cinee). ‘Bennie Butler, writing in the Tattler, says that the only way to stop’ the outlanders from encroaching on Harlem is to give the public what it wants, which is NEWS. Bennie is right, that far. At gives us a laugh to think that Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Washington, Philadelphia and Boston writers will ever join a New York “local.” ‘Truly, an Eastern sports writers’ ascociation has, not yet been conceived. Allentown Joe Gans did not do 0 well last week. Dave Shade, the clever California boy, was given the judges’ decision over him in Wilkes. Barre. ‘The bout went ten rounds and was so furious that Robert West, G4, a spectator, died of heart disease. It is not given to many of ys to have so many persons using our namies..

NEW YORK, N.

It has been hanging fire for almost two, and a Newton Bugbee, high commissioner of boxing at Hudson, paved the way for the world's heavyweight encounter by refusing to draw the color line. He finally had a bill introduced and passed increasing the NEW, YORK, May 6—Actuated by the fact that some of our-best customers might be torn between conflicting desires and box offices, it is probable that Tex Rickard will change the date of the Dempsey-Wills fight, originally set for September 6, to either Labor day or August 30, according to reports in circulation. Tankins Third In Press Race Unfair Handicap Robs Edgar Thomson Runner Of Second Place. Rufus Tankins, wearing the colors of the Edgar Thomson Steel Works, captured third place in the three-mile Press race here Saturday. Tankins ran the race under conditions apparently unfair. With Kerr, Liese and other Pitt men of acknowledged reputation, given 200-yard handicaps, Tankins was forced to accept a 50-yard handicap, Caughey running from scratch. Tankins missed beating out Liese by inches for second place. Two weeks ago, in the cross-country race, which Earl Johnson won, Kerr came in fourth, while Tankins finished seventh, Joe Lans, inter-teammate, wondering just why a man who defeated another gets a 200-yard handicap, while the beaten man must be content with a 50-yard handicap. The handicaps were, no doubt, unfair, and an effort is being made to show the officials of the meet their "error." The Pittsburgh Giants, playing before a fair-sized opening-day crowd, were swamped by the strong Harmarville Consumers Monday night at Central Park, the final score resting in 10.000. Oosness in the play of the in- defense and poor pitching were responsible for the one-sided score. COLUMBUS, O., May 9 S—The Ace of Diamonds' baseball club will open their season with the Columbus Mallables. The Aces are in fine condition and are out to annex the semi-pro championship. The club also desires strong out-of-town attractions. For games write to Ray F. Allen. R 660 Raymond street, Columbus. EXPERT BARBERS USE ARROWAY "Pimp" Young, former Lincoln University star athlete, for several years captain and guard of the Loncini basket ball team, and former catcher with the Homestead Grays has been chosen to handle the destinies of the Pittsburgh Giants on the playing field. This decision was reached Monday night at a special meeting, called by the executive board of the club. Young replaces "Rags" Roberts. The Liberty Homing Club held a special race from Coshcotton, Ohio, a distance of 100 miles airline. Lady Grizzle Wing flying to the left of Theo. Allen, came in just in time to beat T. Thomas's O'Boy, by 4 yds. The race was fast flowed. There were 10 members, who flew 30 pigeons. The next race will be flown from Coshooton, Ohio, Sunday, May 11.

AMERICAN GIANTS DROP 2 TO MONARCHS Grant Pulls "Prize" Boner in Second Game Moore Fields Sensationally For CHICAGO, Ill. May 9, 2014 - Duplicating their feat of winning the opening game of the season, the Kansas City Monarchs came right back again Sunday and missed out runs again, enough to straight win. The Giants made five runs, but they were far outclassed, and at home in the first frame, only to be met with some smart baseball on the field. The Gardenwalk, Demomoss singed, Demomoss and Gardener reached second and third in double steal. Brown hit into a home run, and Hawkins which brought 11,000 fans to their foot yelling. Moore tried to hit the home run, but the lions raller in an effort to get Demomoss going to their scoring. The giants' other run scoring. The giants' other across the pin and in the eighth on Williams' single. Two infield outs, that Was all. Grant will go down in history as pulling the prize "inner." With the prize, he pulls the siph's roller and beat him to the firststack while McNair scored, then, with Jim Brown standing at the plate, Duncan coming in from third, Grant essayed to run all the way from first to home with the tail in his hand, then, with Jim Brown standing at the plate, Duncan scored when Grant failed to tag him. Jim Brown still stood there unable to hear what should have been an咚 but out. Moore's fielding, stood out Sunday, the visiting shortstop going behind the taking balls hit through the third sacker, and killing the tiltin runners going first. Again he went back of the fourth when the high flyer with a ride shot pitched. Allen got a good hand from the crowd in the crowd in the fourth when the high flyer with a ride shot the edge of the crowd in short sight. Hawkins, Mohell and Allen started, but Allen got on hand in the seventh, continued the game until the last of the eighth. Mohell took the inbound in the ninth, the second pitched ball. Brown porped to Hawkins of the first pitched ball and the veteran twister and mancher of Bobby Williams to retract him down on strikes. **Postday 4 Gams** **KANSAS CITY** **AJ. GLANTS** **R. H.

Big Ed Rile, last year one of the "aces" with Rube Foster's American Giants of Chicago, blew into Pittsburgh last week, and is now on the roster of the Homestead Grays. The acquisition of Rile is considered in base ball circles as a "master stroke." It is a well-known fact that the vaunted twirler, one of the most dangerous moundmen the game has ever known, has been eagerly sought after by teams in the Eastern League. Rile, standing over six feet in height, and weighing well over 200 pounds, is playing in fine playing condition, and inaugurated his coming here by holding the heavy-hitting, rejuvenated Millvale club to a 7-7 tie. Rile follows Beckwith here from the clan of Rube, and his acquisition gives the Grays one of the most formidable pitching staffs in Negro baseball. This staff consists of Williams, Owens, Rile and Smith at present. "Sensation" Clark will hit Pittsburgh from the south the middle of this month, according to the management of the Grays.

BOSS DID YOU FIND OVER THING ABOUT MURDERED MAN? Jack Taylor Knocks Out CubanChamp Jack Taylor Knocks Out CubanChamp HAVANA, Cuba, May 8—Jack Taylor of Omaha, claims the colored light heavyweight world championship, knocked out Santiago Esparraguera in the sixth round of a scheduled 15-round bout here last night. The Cuban champion, who succumbed after being knocked down seven times between the start of the fourth round and the finishing blow, exhibited a gameness that is seldom seen in a prize ring, for he rarely clinched and was fighting face to face and landing blow even to the last round. The Cuban light heavyweight champion apparently had the better of the first two rounds and succeeded in opening up an old cut over Taylor's right eye, from which the American bled freely. Taylor, whose weight was announced as 178, against 173½ for Esparraguera, appeared to be much the more powerful and fought from a covered up position that worried the Cuban. Taylor's powerful arms would shoot out with lightning speed and with no necessity for a backward swing and his body blows proved telling. Starting in the fourth, Taylor battered the Cuban unmercifully about the mouth and eyes and floored him four times in that round, only the bell saving the Cuban the last time. Esparraguera, however appeared somewhat fresher to start the fifth and began to use a stiff jab that kept Taylor off for a while. Battling Siki, Senegalese fighter, was thrown out of the arena twice during the evening, once when it is said he was attempting to show Taylor how to fight and a second time when he grew excited during the bout and is said to have struck a spectator.

FIREMAN 1708 Center Ave. An Ui He Loved His First "Oh, 'tis all right, then, Good ni—" The boy had fled in the dark- ness before she got it all out. "Package out here for you, miss- us," she called through the dining room door. "It's here already, is it, Fanny?" "Yes'm, it must be the boy just brung it in a minute ago," philoso- phized Fanny, squint-sighting, at the package. Miss Argus Eye's vision could not penetrate the capacity of this newly introduced mystery. "Suppose you carry it into the sitting rooms for me, Fanny, then I'll take care of me." This lady's curiosity was now at its height, so as she turned to go back to the kitchen she ventured a suggestion in the neuter gender, being careful not so specify anything definite, with the hope that her lead woman would be able to say, "I'll be it's a dandy, alright?" "Yes, it is, Fanny," agreed this wise lady, keeping her face averted from that of her domestic. "This is supposed to represent the last analysis in modern perspective."

MANUFACTURERS SALES COMPANY 4 and 5 Ninth Avenue Depot. 168 New York American Dishes prepared By chef of Morry House One of best in City Pittsburgh THE Courier AMERICA'S BEST WEEKLY Nonplussed and disappointed Fanny shuffled back to the kitchen with greater curiosity than she had when she came out of it, but she was a whole lot less enlightened. "Humph. What I know 'bout the last or the first Alies in motherin' detectives?" Then she gave a little chuckle of satisfaction; "I do know somebody else is—doin' a little detective work around' here tonight." It was either another one of Bruno's fleas or else some definite relation that this last remark had to her right pedal extremity that made her suddenly go down after this member. Fortunately for the flea, her next outsturst proved the latter theory to be the correct one. "Lawd stockin' garter, no wonder you bus', you ain't use to holdin' up five dollar bills." Jean completed her plans in the sitting room, took the platinum brooch set with three diamonds that Guy promised to get her if he did not get her a piano, and went up to bed. Fanny heard her going up the steps and ten minutes later she had darkened the kitchen and gone to her room also. This was originally a bath room, but on account of its being too-large for that purpose it was converted into a room for the domestics. She took off her shoes, snapped on the light and raised the T-shirt. Then she sat in the corner of the room, pleased at the prospect of playing such an important part in the "private 'fairs' of Mr. Alecott. At 11 o'clock sharp, four blasts on an auto horn took Dr. Alcott away from an oyster stew he was just beginning to enjoy in a small restaurant a little way up the street, and he ran out to his car and answered with four similar blasts from the horn on his car. Five minutes later he slipped a key into the lock of his front door and eased it open. A few whispered orders and everything was over in fifteen minutes' time, including the few minutes required in making an explanation to a policeman, and Dr. Alcott closed the door from the inside. But in closing it a sudden gust of wind caused it to slip from his hand and it banged. He stood very still for a few moments and listened, then hearing no sound or warning tap on the pipes from Fanny, he began placing the music rolls in their container in the dark. "Twenty-five," he counted half aloud, as he finished and straightened up to rest his back. And a second later his hair followed suit in the perpendicular as his ear caught the unmistakable sound of the click of the hammer of a revolver. He became conscious of two important facts just at this time. First, that he was not the only person on the first floor; secondly, that his wife could shoot as straight as an arrow, too, and would do so on the impulse of the moment. He was not tardy in yielding to the law of motor suggestion and popping behind the piano as he perceived in his mind's eye a thirty-two caliber bullet getting acquainted with the aysters he had just eaten. He had a start of just one second on a room full of light. A minute later there was a muffled cry of joy and a pink kimono dashed into the room. What was inside it couldn't talk for wonderful surprise and pleasure. What was behind the piano couldn't talk either, mostly from the fact that he was too busy condemning a certain remnant of Ham to an eternal association with the "rich man Dives." The piano proved to be a bigger surprise for Jean at the same time it would have been the next morning, because it happened under such unusual circumstances. Realizing that he was caught, Guy came out from behind his temporary breastwound. "Oh, Guy, you darling! Oh, you darling boy!" she finally managed to sweep, sweeping toward him with open arms. He ducked to avoid the line of a bullet that might accidentally come from the pistol that his wife had evidently forgot she had. "Say, throw that gun down. Do you want to shoot somebody?" He was too brave to say himself, although he was the only person in the room that she could possibly shoot considering the way she was holding the revolver. "Darn that fool cook, I'm going to give her her time tonight yet." "Fire her?" said Jean in surprise. "What for?" "Why, I gave her five dollars to help me out in this and she was to tap on the pipes when she saw or heard you coming downstairs." "Well, turn off the lights," said Jean with a twinkle in her eye, "and we'll go around to the kitchen first and get a glass of lemonade."

PITTSBURGH BOYS THE REPUBLIC Billy Page and his Musical Broadway Syncopators are the newest attraction in Harlem where they are playing at one of the largest cabarets. Here they are in Greenwich Village regalia. Snappy, eh? A cab driver is known by the cab he drives—by its color and the name of the company painted on its side. You can rest assured that any man who drives a GREEN CAB is worthy of the highest trust and responsibility. No one can drive a GREEN CAB unless we are convinced that our patrons, regardless of sex or age, are absolutely safe in his care. On the care with which we select our drivers depends the safety and welfare of the public of Pittsburgh. Public safety is something we hold as a sacred trust. When dependable drivers cannot be secured GREEN CABS will remain in the garage. GREEN CAB drivers are all responsible men of good character and sound moral fiber. They are thoroughly imbued with the spirit of service—that spirit which must characterize any business that is to endure. The men behind the wheels of GREEN CABS are worthy of your complete confidence. snapped the lights on in the sitting room. Guy stopped still in his tracks when half way through it. It was his tur tuto make an exclamation and he almost out-did his wife at it. Someone else would have said that he wore, but it was no more an oath for him in this instance than it is for the minister in the pulp, who says Almighty God when he begins an invocation. He did elap his hands though and also did a one-step. But all this was justifiable; for before him on the wall hung an enlarged portrait of Louise, done in sepia, in a beautifully carved oval frame of green and gold; his birth day present from fear. He turned raputaneously upon his wife and lo. as and he faced another green and gold oval frame enclosing another picture also done in sepia. It was Jean. Guy stopped kissing her in about fifteen minutes and she took him by the hand and led him upstairs. She did not stop at the bedroom door, but took him on through the hall to Fanny's door. "What are you going to do her?" he asked in surprise, forgetting about his threat. "Didn't you say you were going to give her her time tonight yet? "Why-er yes," not very enthusiastically. Jean opened the door noiselessly and they both went inside. The moment Guy stepped in the door he was convinced that this man was not seen," and for that very reason had failed to carry out his instructions at an early stage of his proceedings. The blind was still up and the light was still burning and back in the corner on a chair fast asleep sat Miss Argus Eye with a broad grin spread over her face and a five-dollar bill clenched in her fist. He laid his lap and gave Jean a two to lay on, the total sum of which represented her-time for one week. Tjen he picked Jean up, pink kimono and all, and carried her to her room.

THE STEEL CITY BANKING COMPANY Grant 5462 801 WYLIE AVENUE TWO BANKS Hiland 7813-R 6309 BROAD STREET OPEN TILL 9 P. M. EVERY SATURDAY ATLANTA, GA. Never before has Atlanta witnessed a more scintillating and brilliant display of feminine beauty, gorgeous gowns, floral artistry, electrical effects, terpsichorean art, and genteel men as were the 4th annual receptions at the 4th annual reception of Eta Lambda d chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity, Friday evening, April 25, at the Roof Garden. The South's most beautiful and representative women graced the occasion in unusual loveliness. Their charm and freshness, coupled with their vivacity, served to remind the unacquainted of the eternal beauty that exists under southern skies. The hair dresses were exquisitely lovely, of pearls, diamonds, fragile flowers, and metal ribbons as particularly becoming to the short bobbed hair as to the beautifully coiffed women. The royal command of a king or the wealth of a king would bore him in blood and other people such charming variations of human color and beauty as the daughters of Ethiopia displayed on this unique occasion. Debs, sub-debs, sweethearts and wives all vied one with the other for first honors. The gowns showed real pictorial genius, sumptuous in texture and brilliant in coloring like exo' flowers, startling in their loveliness. There were the elaborate models of magnificent gold and silver 'metal cloths, festooned with brilliants, which were worn by the stately matrons and the frocks of debentures and sub-debs of delicately tinted chiffon, like the gauzy wings of the butterfly. Arrayed against all of this in celestial brilliancy were costly diamond necklaces, bracelets and anerb strands of pearls. The Roof Garden was wonderfully decorated with crystal draperies, poch blossoms and smilax from Southern Alabama. All of this arranged by artists from Sansom's shower Shop was carefully displayed as if in the Garden of Eden in spring time. Appropriate settees and swings were furnished by the, Universal Furniture Company. Chivalrous and handsome men as in the days of knighthood tried themselves in their attentions to the fancies and whims of those of the fairer sex. During the intermission, the lovely and pretty society debanute and Atlanta University co-ed. Miss Anne Maudrea James, entertained the group with a Gypsy dance interpretation. Breaking forth from an entwining of smilies and pennants and arranged in as many colors as are of the rainbow, she danced in exotic gracefulness to the strains of Gallico's "La Tigne," while colorful spotlights played over her wonderful expressions of Gypsy aesthetics.

I have here Do I come in At?" and so of which the two colored Democratic organizations here are regarded by "our white bosses", so I have to inform you, sir, that as I know there is only one Democratic County Organization of colored voters recognized by the Eastern Democratic County Com- mittee I have no doubt whatever that you could doubt your mind justify your curiosity more per- fectly by contacting the county lead- er James I. Nagent. You might also ask any of the members of the committee of the Demo- tric county committee, of which I have the honor of being a member by the vote of the county committee. This, I think, would be a way to get the information to be looking for. The Eas- thern County Democratic Asso- ciation Inc. covers the entire other units, except interested Democrats, work hard- ly within and through the committee. This custom is the way of the old Democratic white bosses, which was established and then the custom more than 15 years ago in my opinion it would prefer to the discredit as well as the acceptance of either of the democratic machines, Demo- tric Republican, to confide in any way recognize a number NEWARK CLASSIFIED HELP WANTED HELP WANTED—And supplied in all branches of housework; white printed and all nationalities.

The leaders of the county view them with suspicion the real campaign workers elbow them around the county headquarters with disgust and contempt. At times they show up big, especially during the refreshment hour" at a meeting opening the campaign, or at a mass meeting just before election day. You ask where do I come in at I stand at the head of the Essex County Colored Democratic Association, Inc. This is about the truest answer I can give you. Speaking of "Our white bosses," I suppose you mean the Regular Essex County Democratic Committee. They recognize you co-operate with this association as one, the only county organization of the Democratic voters so we are not worried you seem to think about the Brantley New Era Club, nor its efforts to super cede the County Association. The county committee, in its last meeting at Central High School, did not vote for but one colored representative, the usual vote was taken and was unanimous for the association choice. There will be no colored representative. There will be no colored representative voted for at the next annual meeting of the committee except the one decided by the Colored Association in the usual manner and provided for in our constitution. To your fifth question I will say, No, I do not believe that the committee nor anyone of the "bosses" would knowingly give support or aid toward destroying the old organization, born in this county 30 years ago, for a new one born in Hudson county less than two years ago. Should such support and aid even to be attempted, I would resign myorship to the county committee at the time and would all affiliations with the party. I am aware the association would feel as I in such a case. Such an act would be regarded by all of us plainly, saying, "you shall not be given a chance to unite and present a solid front for political recognition." This association holds out opened hands to Mr. Brandon, and all other heads of clubs in the county, to come and join us, this you know yourself. We need lots of brains and a reasonable amount of ambition. I think your time is up, and we are the time of his life in the E. Q. C. D. A. If he knew how to and could take enough time to think a little. Hope you may profit by reading this letter and securing the little information sought. By C.

J., today feels itself highly honored as it lives in the aftermath of a thrilling dram. a given by Miss Eliza Coppage of Washington, D. C., who appeared there on the 25th of April before a crowded house in a monologue interpretation of a play written by Eugene Breux styled "In the letter of the law." Miss Coppage, a daughter of the State of North Carolina, a product of Emerson's College of oratory, Boston, Mass, and a graduate of the Ethica Conservatory of Music and Dramatic Expression, Ithica, N. Y., hence an elocutionist of no meine ability, finds it no task to spellbound and mystify her audiences wherever she goes. While she has practically devoted the greater part of her past career to the task of preparing the youth of her race for college, she will demistify herself from the audience, which she appears, that other dramatists hold no monopoly over the artistic work in which she occasionally engages. YOUNG BLOOD How I Keep Feeling Young and Vigorous at Near Sixty "I am near 60 years, but I feel as young as I did at 30. I take a cupful of Bulgarian Tea once or twice a week. It keeps me healthy and strong and makes me feel young again," said H. H. Von Schlick, manufacturer of Bulgarian Herb Tea. Bulgarian Tea is a great blood tonic and everyone should enrich, refresh and improve their blood. Just a few doses of Bulgarian Tea and you begin to feel a change. Bulgarian Tea is compounded of the purest herbs of high medicinal value and should make anyone feel 10 to 30 years younger when taken once or twice a week. It is the sensible blood tonic for everyone. Ask your druggist for my genuine Bulgarian Tea with my name on the box. Refuse substitutes. Or I will send it by mail postpaid for $1.00. Address me, H.

After the speaking, 86 new members were enrolled, bringing the total membership up to 274. No candidates for politics dorsed at this meeting. Among the members of the club are George Dance, vice president, and Dr. H. H. Lewis, secretary.

What is your nationality? What is your occupation, business or profession? (3) With what clubs, churches or other organizations? (4) Are you in favour of electing or appointing Negroes of ability to political offices of honor and trust?” 'Hon. W. S. Hallanan, candidate for United States Senator, answered as follows: "(1) I am not now, neither have I ever been, or neither I contemplate joining the 'Ku Klux Klan.' I am wholly opposed to the principles of the order as being un-American and one which this country was founded. Neither am I aware of any of mine being members of the order. (2) I was born in Huntington, Cabell county. Nationality is American. My occupation has been as a newspaper man; later private secretary to the Governor of West Virginia; State Tax Commissioner and now engaged in the business of producing coal. (3) I am a member of the Meadows Episcopal Church, South, Edgewood and the Kanaka Country Club.

S. and Canada will begin to arrive in old Pittsburgh. The I. C. K. T. was organized in Chicago, Ill., in 1908, and meets every two years. Since its organization the interest in Templary has increased more than 100 percent, especially in the drill and display work. These meetings bring together the way best he can energy to the soluble tasks he can undertake and have proven indeed an inspiration and incentive to higher ideals to all who have attended them. This is the second time the honor has fallen to Pittsburgh to entertain the conference, the previous occasion being in August, 1914, and so well did the fraters of the old Smoky City play the host that of each session since that time every one has wanted to come to Pittsburgh. The general committee is composed of one hundred men. S. Knights and, Shriners, and each one seems to vie with his fellows as to who can best do his work. Em. Sir. William S.

They will not fail us, and we must not fail them. Go to the homes. "The half has never been told." There is a special inspiration in the development of home life in the South. New York, Chicago, and other cities North have beautiful homes. But by no means have we a monopoly. If your concet gives rise to the thought that we have it all, it is time to wake up. If you wish to find what the poet meant when he wrote "Home Sweet Home," you've got to go South to find it, amid the roses, magnolias, palmettos and green grass; the winding walks, broad porches, the warm sun and mellow moonlight. Colored America has the homes there in city and country, and don't you forget it! They enjoy them, too. Someone may say: "Oh, you're just painting the bright side" (Sure, Mike, that's a fact. Don't you think it time? Hasn't the dark side been painted to a frazzle? We want it known that there is a bright side. That seems to be the unknown fact. We saw much of light, and very little of darkness on this tour. Progress Business In business, education, and in the professions, colored America, South, is constantly finding himself. In Columbia, South Carolina, fo example, one of the finest modern department stores in the heart of the business section, is owned by a colored man; in Savannah, Ga, another colored man owns the three-story building in which he conducts a mattress and pillow factory. The development of banks and insurance concerns are notable. The Richmond, Durham, Savannah and Atlanta groups stand foremost in these developments. Durham, with a colored population of fewer than 12,000 has done most amazing things, and the power of this wealth and business success commands the highest respect of the whites—and be sure to put the emphasis on "highest." The great religious publishing houses of Nashville, are sufficient to inspire the entire race. There is much more to hope; the fine organization of power at Tuskegee Institute, the operative achievements of McGill, the new spirit of identification in Louisville, which has given that famous immunity a front place in commercial progress, the awakening of Baltimore, in "Maryland, My Maryland," the new vision in Washington, the Nation's capitol, the unusual industrial opportunities of Birmingham—everywhere the march is "Onward and Upward."

The Civil War:and the Mex- ican War veterans will not get the proposed pension, “.. To the veteran, this.scems like a very cold and ungrateful ‘attitude to take towdrd’a man who has fought for his country. But the facts are different. President Coolidge desires as much as any to see the country amply reward its soldiery for the services rendered the flaz in times of hostilities. But the Presi- dent. made it very Clear that he does not propose to see the “pusple butdened further with ‘additional taxations when, as a ‘matter of fact, the people are already over-loaded. It is in keep- ‘ing with his program of economy that the President vetoed the bi The pee of economy: was the-cry of ‘the nation in 1820, and the burden is very little lighter today, if, indeed, it is ‘any lighter at all. : :” tis refreshing to note the attitude taken by the President. ‘He has not forgot the program of economy, even if the people who clamor for pensions, bonuses and extravagant expenditures of the-public treasury.’ The usual conduct of our public ser- ryants is just the reverse of that shown by President Coolidge. He‘is remembering the cries of the people. If he continues to xemember the people; if he continues to stand firm for a sub- stantial reduction in the burden now being carried by the people .who pay the freight—if he will stand by his convictions, he will ‘be the refreshing exception to the rule, and, therefore, a great leader and a wise President. - . : ————_o—_—_—_ Dr. Da Bois Displeased - OR. FIVE months Dr. DuBois was away from these United F States informing himself on Africa and the interests of the darker peoples. He returned to the home ‘country some few weeks ago, accepted a banquet in his honor, and then set out to tell us what “terrible” things we have done during his absence. , . ‘The official organ of the N. A. A. C. P. is the Crisis. Dr. DuBois is supposed to somewhat supplement the work of the organization by what he says in the Crisis. He is expected, at least, to give publicity to the N. A. A. C. P. program, and to propagate the organization idea. We cannot agree that he is devoting much attention to supplementing the work of the sec- “retary of the organization.” Indeed, we think James Weldon Johnson made more progress in his struggle for a larger organi- zation while DuBois was in Africa than has been made since the organiaztion assume its place as an advancement agency. - “An example of the DuBois antagonism: The first issue of the Crisis after the,return of its editor carries a bold state- ment-of fact, without any qualification, that the Sanhedrin did nothing; that the “Negro Press Association” has issued a silly statement on organized labor; that Garvey is a lunatic and a traitor. This is about the extent of “opinion” for thé May is- _site of the Crisis. Not a line of constructive suggestion to be found. Even Mr. Burleigly suffers for want of sufficient space to tell us of his achievement as a musician. Tanner fairs a little better, but Mr. Tanner js 2 Frenchman, and DuBois is crazy about the “other fellow.” Anybody but the Negro in America. Not a photograph published in the Crisis tending to show the ‘affairs attended’ by DuBois while in Afriga carries‘a picture of DuBois. He is studiously,“‘out of every picture.” As dumb as DuBois says we are, we have sense enough to notice his absence from every picture. We draw our own conclusions. “"; Does James Weldon Johnson expect the members of. the Sanhedrin to support the N. A. A. C, P. while DuBois de- nounces the Sanhedrin as doing nothing? Does James Weldon Johnson expect his personal friends to give his efforts publicity while DuBois uses the Crisjs to criticize and minimize the im- portance and value of other'agencies? Can Mr. Johnson expect -bf the “Negro Press Association” any publicity, any money, any moral support while DuBois decries the organization ‘as silly? Does Mr. Johnson expect a single Garvey follower to cultivate pespect for the NX. A. A. C. P. while the official organ refers to .. Garvey as a traitor and a Junatic? It may be that Garvey is _crazy, It may be that he is a traitor. We doubt it more now " than, ever, since the DuBois tirade. But does not DuBois, a “man of education, know that we have arrived where we are today through evolution of one kind or another? Give us a -,chance. We will see the light in time. We cannot be rushed from one extreme to another. We cannot survive the transition iE it is made tv0 sudden. *. DuBois should iry to help, and not feel too big to help. will some day learn to help, or he will find himself on the le limes. We need help, not hindrance, “Down To.

The prevailing thought in the minds of those responsible for the measure seems to be to get rid of the hyphenated citizen, or rather-residentgin this country. _ It has been pointed out that not every person carrying citizenship papers is a citizen. It is possible in this country to see any number of persons leaving this country for all time; 'while.in their trunks they have tucked away their citizenship papers, ‘It is more than interesting to note how many applica- tions are made in this country for citizenship papers for no other purpose than to use the papers as.a protection while the holder desires to remain in this country and earn money. Usually, the first papers represent the extent of the applicant. He does not desire to give up his native land; and it is very easy to take “first papers” in America, thus placing the appli- cant in position to impress the public officials with his intention to become an American citizen, while the “first” papers are not sufficient to constitute a renunciation of his native land. In this half and half position, he earns all the American money he wants, and at his own sweet convenience, he leaves for his na- tive fireside, and forgets America until more money is needed. The immigration measure now before the American people will reduce this half-hearted attitude toa minimum, The law Proposes to take away the opportunity to enter this country, except to the stipulated quota. This arrangement will reduce the number of half and: half citizens whose names and lives are hyphenated to suit their own convenience. Uncle Sam has decided to make a clean sweep of the hy- phenated citizen. ‘There is the inescapable suggestion that the American blacks follow suit and forget their hyphen and aban- don the “Afro” so much in evidence in some parts of the coun- try. The hyphen not only implies a qualification, but suggests it in spite of our knowledge to the contrary. The Negro is as much American as he can be under any kind of circumstance. The “Afro” is not to his credit, nor does it enlarge his citizen- ship. If U; Sam desires the hyphen to go, we consider it good policys aid in the campaign by dropping the “Afro” which does‘nothing but qualify us as a particular kind of citi- zen. We hold such qualification to be necessary. y < “Most of uz hate to think about money. That is, we hate to de- cide, “The way out of poverty is by thrift; but no one can come to thrift except by daily decision and self-mastery, The idea of thrift we are perfectly wiling to entertain so long as it can float as a beau- tiful golden cloud in the sky of our mind. But actually"to be thrifty requires that we form the habit of swiftly deciding twenty times a day not to spend money on foolishness. “Most of us get tired of the eternal struggle. That is, we think it is eternal. Really, it is not,.for' if we persistently keep up the struggle by and by it eeases to be hard and becomes the xarest form of pleasure. “Most people dislike to speak of moncy, and the reason is that money is about the hardest fact in the world. And if you speak of it at all you must, speak decisively. You can hem and haw over the color of your necktie or the quality of your ice cream, But fifty cents is fifty cents, and it is never anything else but a half dollar."—Dr. Frank Crane. < THE LITTLE HOME 'The stars shine weleore, the hom By Frank L, Stanton i lade lene. he” hearts ea O Little Home, on the lifelong way,| 7° fhe hearts the world woul With One at the door, still callin; oe tthe sunshine-childres, home from {Of hearth that shines, and of arm he sunshine-ehildren ome from)" * “ih cling z as: LIn the little world where Love The come in the evening now, grown King. 4 pray, ee, 7 ‘With a song to sing, and a prayer to [4*4 MB heaven the loved bel Fray, cep With the later shadows falling. | Of peace and rest forever.

That because a man is a good citizen and the leader of a certain group in his own immediate neigh: Sorhood, he is not the leader of the twelve or more million of us. 3. That those of us who have not passed out of the grammar school, and have had little opportunity to study’ human nature, must learn to accept the opinion of those of our [men and women who have had train- Jing and experience. | 4, That a Negro can be mentally ‘bright, can be a first class doctor ot ‘dentist, or elocutionist; an eloquent divine, a celebrated teacher or a good author, without the white man first saying so. / 3. That it is high time far Ne- [groes to awaken to one thing at Teast—want recognition of ability as [man to man, and not recognition be- [cause of the fact that suet and such a man is a fine specimen of Negro manhood; and that he was appointed ‘to office because he is, or was, or has [been a leading Negro. We want ap pointments and recognition to stand ‘on merit and fitness. . ‘When these five things shall have been learned-by all of us; when the} are taught. to our children and ou children’s children the white mar twill “sit up and take notice.” i SHORT CUTS The Maryland Legislature appro. priated $125,000 for # Science Hall at Morgan College.

Sherman of the English Depart- ment of the University of Hlinois has accepted the post of literary editor of the New York Herald- Tribune, to become effective in September. His asso- ciate will be Irita Van Doren, the present literary edi- tor of The Nation, and wife of Cati. Yan Doren, critic and literary editor of The Century: Magazine, The combination is expected to strengthen and liven the flagging spirits of the Herald-Tribune’s Sunday magazine, ; Burton Rascoe seems to be sleeping on the job. His “Bookman's Day Book” has never been’ any too. readable, and is much Jess interesting. His book reviews are static. Under him the literary policy has dropped low. Prof. Sherman is a critic and writer of long stand- ing, but his recent “Cornelia” articles in the Atlantic Monthly are gems of rare brilliance. | He has a keen insight into the present gen¢ratton’s “aesthetic prob: Tems. His:comment is sharp, penetrating, yet fair and true. Mrs, Yon Doren’s ‘worth is, found in The ‘Nation of the present. Under her it has kept up to the mark it made when her husband and.John Macy. were in charge. We await: with interest the Herald-Tribune when Mr Sherman and his associate assume’ control.

This new collection gives voice to the deep feelings of a highly sensitive colored woman in their reactions to prejudice and oppression. As such the poems form a spiritual autobiography, and carry its message to Americans of all races and nationalities. To the mem- bers of her own race Mrs. Johnson's poems appeal as the utterance of its own suppressed yearnings and as- pirations; to all other_true Aimericans as a vojce com- ing out of the wilderness with prophesy. This book | undoubtedly proves Mrs. Johnson the most gifted wom- an poet produced by the race in America. . In the introduetion Dr. DuBois speaks on the'mean- ing of the book and the penetrating quality. of the author's touch: 5 “Those who would know what it means to be a.col- cored woman in 1922—and know it not so:much in fact as in feeling, apprehension, unrest and delicate yet stern thought, must read Georgia Douglas Johnson's ‘Bronze? Much of it will not touch this reader and that, and some of it will mystify and puzzle: them as a sort of reiteration and over emphasis. But none can fail to be caught here and there by 3 word—a_phrase— ‘a period that tells a life history or even paints the history of a ‘generation.” : ‘The volume“is composed of sixty-five poems, some of which are reprints from The Crisis” aid“’The Lib- erator.” The \poems are divided into nine ehapters under the titles of Exhortation, ‘Supplication, Shadow Motherhood, Prescience, Exaltation, Martial, Random and Appreciations. ca Mrs. Johnéon, herself says in the’ author’s note: “This book is the child of a bitter earth-wound.
