PHILADELPHIA, Pa., June 26. Mayor W. Freeland Kendrick, at the opening mass meeting Wednesday night of the fifteenth annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (Cherry Memorial Church, Sixteenth and Christian streets). delivered the following address of welcome: "As mayor of Philadelphia I extend a hearty welcome to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People of the United States.

"Conventions like the one to be held by your association will not only accelerate that development, but will bring about a co-operation and understanding between the races so necessary for the welfare and advancement of our great nation."

Nora Holt Ray Said To Have Left Husband
Dashing Wife of Wealthy "Joe" Ray Says Bethlehem Is "Too Small," Alleged.
NEW YORK, June 26—Glumor has if that the matriarchal burk of Joseph Ray and his wife, this woman, now former Nora Douglas Holt of Chicago, has wrecked 'mid turbulent waters. The news leaked out when Mrs. Holt with her elaborate wardrobe and jewels came to New York and took rooms in the apartment of Mrs. Carolyn Wilkins, widow of the late Barron D. Wilkins, at 198 W. 134th St.
Mrs. Ray, it is said, left her luxurious "love cottage" in Bethlehem against the wishes of her husband, who is confident to Charles M. Schwab, the steel magnate.
Bethlehem is "too small" for the social ambitions of the popular matron, it is said, and when she proposed that her husband maintain a New York apartment for her where he might come and spend the week-end he flatly refused—Mrs. Ray left! It is alleged that Mr. Ray told his fair spouse that if she left him at Bethlehem she would be "no more Mrs. Ray."
However, Mrs. Ray is in little old New York settled comfortably with Mrs. Wilkins, sharing the latter's maid and occupying two rooms. Mr. Ray has two small children by a former marriage. His marriage to the present Mrs. Ray took place in the spring of 1923. The couple spent their honeymoon in Europe and their wealth was the talk of the country. He gave his wife a wedding gift of $10,000 and a beautiful cottage at Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

BOSTON, Mass, July 26—Boston, city of convention, culture, courtesy and beaus, has an unusually large number of interesting Negroes—authors, poets, political and social leaders, professionals, and persons of wealth.
Among the writers I met during my stay there were William Stanley Braithwaite, poet, and America's leading anthologist of verse; Eugene Gordon, who is on the editorial staff of the Boston Post, New England's largest daily. Gordon saw service in the Argonne, and is winner of the Croix de Guerre. I also met George Reginald Margetson, whose poem, "The Fledgling Band", ranks high in contemporary

FAMED GEORGIAN DIES
AUGUSTA, Ga., June 25.—Judson W. Lyons, one of the most picturesque figures in national political life, died at his home here Sunday. The end came suddenly, shocking his devoted family and a multitude of admirers in all parts of the country.
Mr. Lyons was formerly Registrar of the United States Treasury under President William McKinley. His pugnacious campaign for the position of Postmaster at Augusta, Georgia, in 1898 drew him into the public eye, and when President McKinley named him Registrar of the Treasury instead of head of the Postoffice in his home town, political opinion was rife.
He was at one time National Republican Committeeman from the state of Georgia.

South America, Europe, and Africa is expected that more than $0,000 members of the organization will be here and an elaborate program for their entertainment is being arranged by the local committees.
Laborer, Fatally Injured, Carried Fortune With Him
TORRINGTON, Conn. June 26 — A money belt worn by George Thomas, aged 33, laborer on the Shepaug Tunnel project, when he was admitted to the hospital here a patient June 9, contained nearly $3,600 in cash, it was discovered, following his death Monday. He leaves only one known relative, a cousin, James Cabon, in Litchfield. The money has been turned over to the trust officer of a local bank who will act as administration of the estate.
It was announced several days ago that J. A. Rogers, author of "From 'Superman' to Man", would make a tour of the country. Since that time Mr. Rogers has spent two weeks in Boston, his first stop on the tour, and has written his impressions of Boston and the Bostonians exclusively for The Pittsburgh Courier. and is editor of "The City Record." He expressed his great thanks to The Pittsburgh Courier for its excellent review of his book.
Women Who Fail To Vote Are Scored
CHICAGO, Ill., June 27—"Men should not have everything; they certainly do not accomplish everything" says Mrs. Camille Cohen-Jones, of Chicago. Mrs. Jones is the daughter of Walter L. Cohen, of New Orleans, Louisiana, and one of the outstanding women in politics. Indeed, one might truthfully say, Mrs. Jones is one of the most beautiful and attractive of the feminine ranks interested in exercising the fullest rights of citizenship. An actress and writer black eyes, she is an attractive black woman in our culture.
"She attends the Republican National Convention in Cleveland several weeks ago, where she addressed several bodies of women, and also sang several delightful French songs. It was on such an occasion, she declared women who refused to vote were "standing in their own light." It is surprising to know the larger number of women who absolutely refuse to go to the polls. N satisfied with remaining at home, they seem to take pleasure in talking disparagingly about the women who are interested," said Mrs. Cohen.
"At the recent G. O. P. convention women were granted 50-50 representation with men. This is as it should be. The men do part of the work, the women also. Should they not share and share alike?" Jones was an art worker in the pre-convention campaign in Chicago, and it is reported that she will take the stump for Coolidge, this fall. She resides at 4143 South Michigan avenue, Apartment Three.

At Jamaica Plain I met Mrs. Maud Cumey Hare, who is preparing an exhibit of Negro music for Wanamaker's in Philadelphia, which will be seen by the delegates this month to the annual meeting there of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. At the State House I found that Governor Cox's right hand man was a Negro, Attorney William L. Reed, former member of the State Legislature. Boston has a comparatively small percentage of Negroes, but the race takes a keen interest in polling, voting, it seems, for the Republicans in State affairs, but for the Democrats locally.

Northeastern's "Big Business" Drive Going Over
Organizers of Northeastern Life Insurance Company Plan to Make Project a Real Power.
NEWARK, N. J., June 26.—From all indications the present effort of a group of representative men to launch a really "Big Business" in this section of the country is apparently going over with the characteristic "bang." The Northeastern Life Insurance Company, with headquarters at Newark, N. J., is building in a manner that invites the respect as well as the confidence of the men involved in the project.
The men organizing the company plan to make it one of the most powerful financial institutions of the race. In order to do that, realize that the men in active charge of the company must be men of proven business ability and practical insurance experience. Harry H. Pace, the president of the company, is a magnetic character, and is recognized as one of the most progressive young business men of the race. Associated with Mr. Pace is T. A. Dickson, one of the best life insurance salesmen the race has produced. He is not only a large producer himself, but has the faculty of making of others large producers.
The directors of the Northeastern Life have been chosen for their in-

Democratic Delegate
Dr. Collins Alternate at Convention
NEW YORK June 26.—The United Colored Democracy (Colored Tammany Hall), Ferdinand Q. Morton, leader, 2850 Seventh avenue, was not so jubilant Monday when it was announced that Dr. Paul A. Collins, 221 West One Hundred and Thirty-fifth street, was the only colored delegate to the Democratic National Convention in Madison Square Garden. Mr. Morton and his associates have been advertised for several days that he a gigantic clam bake would be given the out-of-town colored delegates attending the convention, with several white Democratic leaders as guests and speakers. But when the bald fact was admitted that only one colored delegate was officially elected, and he was only an alternate and living just two blocks from the headquarters, being already Tammany, the prospects for entertaining out-of-town guests looked dim. Dr. Collins was duly elected as alternate to Hen. Murray Hilbert, president of the New York City Board of Aidermen. He will get a

DUAL 'LOVE AFFAIR' ALLEGED AS POLICE INVESTIGATE CASE
Husband, Alleged to Have Another Wife Living, Cannot Be Found—Foul Play Suspected. (Special to The Pittsburgh Courier)
RICHMOND, Va., June 26.—As the result of an alleged "dual love affair," pretty young Mrs. Viola Sydnor, white, of South Richmond, was brutally and mysteriously murdered and her elaborately clothed body thrown in the dock at the foot of Twenty-second street. Richmond police authorities suspect foul play and her husband, Walter Sydnor, aged 23, is being sought.
As the result of an alleged g.Mrs. Viola Sydnor, white, of and mysteriously murdered and rrown in the dock at the foot of od police authorities suspect alter Sydnor, aged 23, is being have revealed an unusually in-
Investigation is alleged to have revealed an unusually interesting and tragic story of the domestic affairs of Sydnor, who is well known in the Churchill and Southside districts of Richmond. It is indicated that developments have indicated that Sydnor had smoked the living room, mistreated Churchill, and attribute this condition as being the indirect cause of the gruesome murder.
The body of the Sydnor woman, handsome though swollen by the water, was discovered floating in the dock Tuesday morning and an ex-amination indicated that the body had been in the water about three days.
That Mrs. Sydnor was murdered and her body thrown in the dock is the theory upon which police are working. Several scalp incarcerations and one blow that fractured the skull bear out the theory that the woman had been brutally beaten with a heavy blunt instrument before being consigned to the muddy stream. No water was found in her lungs, according to the physicians, indicating that the woman was dead before her body was thrown into the dock.
At this writing, Sydnor had not been apprehended.
Alleged Assailant Makes Insanity Plea
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., June 26—(P. N. S.)—A motion for a change of venue for Frank Ownes, charged with attacking F. W. Warren and F. M. Hawkins, with an ax and robbing them, was denied by Judge Fort in Circuit Court here Thursday. Attorneys for Ownes in the motion contended that the public mind is so inflamed in Birmingham by newspaper accounts of the ax murders that a fair trial cannot be obtained. Ownes, who according to officials, has confessed the attack, entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity when the trial opened. His case was set for two weeks ago, but was postponed when he injured himself in a jump from the high window in the court room.

The only harmless way to bleach the skin white is to mix the juice of two lemons with three ounces of Orchard White, which any druggist will supply for a few cents. Shake well in a bottle, and you have a whole quarter-pint of the most wonderful skin whitener, softener and beautifier.
Massage this sweetly fragrant lemon bleach into the face; neck, arms and hands. It can not irritate. Famous stage beauties use it to bring that clear, youthful skin and rosy-white complexion; also as a freckle, sunburn and tan bleach. You must mix this remarkable lotion yourself. It can not be bought ready to use because it acts best immediately after it is prepared.—Advertisement.

Daytona-Cookman Stages Exercises
DAYTONA, Fla., June 26—What was perhaps one of the most interesting commencements of the season was that which was held at the Daytona-Cookman Collegiate Institute last week. The commencement had an enthusiastic beginning. The first exercise was {that of the elemental dance} 6th. The most unique part of the entire commencement was the awarding of the diplomas to the graduates of the Kindergarten Department and their class play, which was entitled "In Little Folks' Town." It was truly remarkable how all the young people were trained. Much credit is due to the instructors. The Primary department gave an interesting little play "The Tiger," which was very good, showing much time had been given to the young folks in their preparation.
Sunday, June 8th, was Baccalaureate Sunday: Rev. M. W. Clair, Jr., preached an interesting sermon. His text was, "The Dominating Purpose." His discourse was clear-cut and was thoroughly understood by all who heard him.
Monday, June 9th, at 10:30 a.m. the morning. The lectures were needful. This day was also set aside for the Tree Exercise. Monday evening at 8 o'clock the J. H. III staged "The Cricket on the Hearth." The play was good.
Tuesday, June 10th, at 2 p.m. the alumni held their meeting in the auditorium.
Much credit is due Miss Josie W. Roberts, head of the Musical Department of the school, for the excellent program which was given on Tuesday, June 10th.
On Wednesday, June 11th, the Seniors' play, "The Merchant of Venice," was very enthusiastically presented.
Thursday, June 12th, was Commencement day. Long before the hour had arrived, the student body had assembled in front of their buildings. Automobiles from every point of Florida were on the campus and the campus looked like a human bee-hive. Promptly at 2:30 the students marched into the auditorium, followed by the faculty and the members of the trustee board, then the graduating class. Pres. N. W. Collier, president of the Fla. Nor. & Ind. Inst., of St. Augustine, Fla., delivered the commencement address.

Be Proud of Your Hair
There is no longer any reason why YOU should be humiliated and embarrassed by a scanty growth of harsh, wiry hair, when thousands of our men and women are finding that beautiful long, straight, glossy hair, which is easy to dress in any desired manner, is merely a matter of using PLUKO HAIR DRESSING regularly.
"I love my beautiful hair to the regular size of PLUKO HAIR DRESSING. I wouldn't think of doing nothing at JULIA GORDON.

Crazed By Love, Bayonets Wife
Crazed By Love, Bayonets Wife
BALTIMORE, Md., June 26—With seven stabs in her body made by the bayonet from an army rifle, Mrs. Edna Johnson, 22, is near death, her husband, Howard Johnson, said to be an ex-soldier, is being held to face a charge of murder.
Inflamed by jealousy and crazed by whisky, it is said that Johnson, who is 38 years old, plunged the deadly bayonet into the body of his young wife after a series of domestic quarrels, which culminated when his wife went out and stayed all night.
Attempt At Segregation Leads to Suit
NEW YORK, June 26—Attempt to segregate colored from white people in the public parks of Louisville; Kentucky, has met with determined resistance, from the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
Recently two colored teachers, Misses Margaret Taylor and Naomi Anthony, took 20 colored children to the City Park for a day's outing. They picnicked on the white playground for a time until three-white park guards, Tyler, Zwigard and Boss, ordered them out and upon their refusal to go, choked one of the colored teachers, and took them both to the police station in a patrol wagon. The teachers swore out a warrant charging assault and battery against one of the guards and the next morning, 100 members of the N. A. A. C. P. were in court, employed an attorney and had the case put over until June 24th.
Lee L. Brown, of the Louisville branch, N. A. A. C. P., reports: "We visited the Mayor's office and laid our complaint before him, further we had the officers arrested. Yesterday (Sunday) four-minute-speakers were sent out to the churches. The churches responded and a neat sum of money was raised, the clubs and other organizations have declared they will help. We are going to carry this case if necessary to the supreme court in order to test whether we as taxpayers have right to use the parks without being modeled by the police officers." Mr. Brown reports that the N. A. A. C. P. opposed the opening of a special park for colored people in Louisville. and that since its opening there has been trouble over colored people using the other city parks and playgrounds. The National Office of the N. A. A. C. P. has telegraphed commending the fight and offering assistance.

‘Cut’ Graduation
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., June 26.—
Twenty-three members of the gradu-
ating class of the Darby High
School, including the president, vice
president and secretary of the class,
carried out their threat and did not
attend commencement exercises. in
the High School Auditorium after
Darby sehool officials refused to re-
verse their verdict in naming Hilda
Mae Bolden, a colored girl, valedic-
torian.
The 23 protesting students _mo-
tored from Darby’ to McCallister
Hall, Spring Garden street, near
Eighteenth, where they held ‘a din-
ner dance and did their best to have
a good time. None of the 23, how-
ever, had ascertained whether their
action ‘would cost them their di-
plomas.
Meanwhile, the remaining 37
members of the class, excepting one,
swho was ill, ane a girl married with-
in the week, received their diplomas
amid the plaudits of their friends
and relatives.
‘The dissenters insisted that Po-
lissena Olympia Baccini, the saluta-
torian, should have been valedic-
torian, and tried to force their'views
upon” Superintendent Walter R.
Douthett, Principal ConradT. Wal-
die and ‘the school board. These,
however, ramained adamant in their
decision. Superintendent | Douthett
said: “Of course they will get their
diplomas. I am really sorry for
them. There is nothing as dear in
life as the memories asfociated with
commencement night, and these dis-
senters have. missed the sweetest
fruit of their high school career.’,
‘No teferonce to the absentees fras
made during the commencement ex-
ercises. There were seven col.red
crodents in the class of 60.

mot. the Revs.,Ward and Swain, pas-

Both the U. N. 1. A. and the Ur-

of the former, among them being
Messrs, Headley and H. B. Williams.
Samuel Allen is the energetic sec-

There is 2 minimum of segrega-
stion in Boston; a fact which both
white and colored seem to be very
proud of. I met many interesting
white persons, all -of whom were
very courteous. Amiong them were
the secretary to Cardinal O'Connell,
Father Driscoll of the Boston Pilot,
Miss ‘Crawford of the Little Build-
ing, prominent social worker; Miss
Heathfield, secretary to Miss Louise
Brooks, philantropist; the literary
editors “of the Boston Herald, the
Transcript, the Christian Science
Monitor, and Mfr. Philpott, editor of
the Boston Globe, who, when I told
him how all the white publishers had
refused my book, expressed surprise
that. Negroes had no publishing
firms of their own to put out un-
censored literature on their own race
as the Trish, Jews, Catohlics, Italians
and even Albanians have. Mr. Phil,
pott, who is much interested in Ne-
gro education in the South, and is
helping to support a school there,
‘said that the recital of my difficul-
ties had given him the cue toward
starting such a concern.
A surprisingly large number of
white persons in Boston seem to be
aiding Negro education in the South.
Mr. Philpott, who gave me almost
an hour-of his valuable time, said
that the chief solvent of the race
question would be “more light and
Jess heat.”
T met dozens of other interesting
persons. I was accompanied on the
tip by Dr. Hubert H. Harrison, lec
turer for the New York City Board
of Education, who made several pub-
lic speeches while we were in Bos-

By Deppe’s Recital
Featuring one of the most artistic
and well-balanced musical zrearee
of the season, Deppe’s recital last
Sunday afternoon at the Ebenezer
Baptist Church proved to be a bril-
Hiant success.
With Miss Charlotte Enty as
pianist; Messrs. Stoner and Vance
Dixon, saxaphonists, and Miss Doris
‘Rheubotiom as soprano, the program
presented a splendid array of mu-
sical talent. ma
Notwithstanding'the warm weather,
an appreciative audience of 900
greeted the artists. Deppe's rendl-
tion of 19 fine numbers, including
songs by Negro composers, was en-
thusiastically received. He was ac-
corded a heavy ovation on the pro-
Yogue from Pagliaccia, which was
rendered ir an impressive manner.
Miss~ Charlotte Enty displayed
rare and artistic talent at the
piano, Her playing was really in-
Eine,
Mr. Stone and Mr. Dixon proved
masters of the saxaphone, both re-
ceiving hearty applause.
“Are rubber soles wise?” is ask-
ed. We think not, or they would
no: allow themselves to be caught
and served in restaurants.

‘Tho Ebenezer Baptist Church was
crowded beyond capacity fer the 11
o'clock . serviee Sunday morning.
Pastor J..C. Austin delivered a
forceful message from Nehemiah
4:6-3, “I am doing a great work; I
cannot come down.” The speaker in
his first thought laid special emphs-
sis~upon “I am doing.” He made
the congregation see clearly their in
dividual obligation in race building
and in oxtending the kingdom's pto-
gram. The congregation saw clearly
that their closest concern’ in life is
to be able to say individually, “J am
doing things.” Every man should be
2 doer. The economy of the ages
declare clearly that each individual
born is to be added energy to the
forces of, the’earth, as well as a dis-
tinet personality. "God never jokes
or plays, and as it is with every
plant, beast, insect, stars or_ what
not, they have a distinct mission to
fil’ It is with the man the crown-
ing act of God's creation. Man's
highest mission is to serve, The
speaker, in his second thought, laid
emphasis on, “A great | work,”
teaching us ‘who sat as attentive
pupils, the great fact that all men
are workers alohg some line, but
that all work cannot be styled as
great work.” “Great work” has the

measured in soul salvation and spir-
itual attainment. “Great work” im-
mortalizes the worker. The con-
cluding thought was, “I cannot come
down.” Splendidiy was the thought
developed as to the. struggles
through whieh one must pass. to
reach the heights, and the wisdom
one displays in retaining his posi-
tion when once it is obtained. The
speaker gave his audience many at-
‘tractions and inducements for not
‘coming down to the tow things of
life ifto the valley of humiliation,
sin and utter despair.
It is the concensus of opinion by
those who attended the services at
Ebenezer Sunday that it was a
mountain-top day, spent in @ heav-
enly atmosphere.
The Sabbath School was largely
attended, with 30 odd new additions.

Much has been said from time to time of the various bodies that go to make up the allied Masonic conventions that will make Pittsburgh their Mecca the week of August 17th.
A great ado has been made over the man who compose these groups: we have passed the Shriners, the Knight, Temple Missionary Royal Arch Masons and the Grand Secretaries, but of you know that if nothing but these men and these alone, met here it would be a dull drab affair. Even the National Republican convention now has its women delegates, alternates, etc., so with our conventions here in August, the women play a large part in the all-around success of the affair. Hundreds of men come with their families, be-

idea of the number of the women.
Of course all do not attend these national conventions but with delegates and visitors and the members who come with husbands and fathers it makes quite a body of women.
The question of housing this army of women is a very acute problem; through some devious paths of reasoning women are loathe
take other women as roomers saying: they prefer men who are less trouble, but when they, themselves go away with their men folks or alone, they and others are the ones who are the discourtesy or hospitality they have shown other women come home to them like a 'boomerang'. To offset this condition the sight Eastern Star Chapters of Pittsburgh have banded themselves together not only to entertain the Interstate Grand Chapter, but to see them adequately housed. They have elected their officers of this joint committee, and appointed committees and are functioning to full capacity. The local officers are Mrs. Sarah McClanahan, chairman; Mrs. Ada V. Brown, vice chairman; Mrs. O. Tennyson Ross, secretary and those ladies, girls, and those ladies assured where their plans are well matured and they dove-tail in with the plans of the men. They are co-operating with chairman Jennings of the housing committee and are confident that when their National Officers sound the gavel on opening day their plans will unfold and function like a well oiled machine.

Greatest Flesh Builder
No more will weak, thin, unfortunate children cry in protest when the nasty, fishy-tasting, horrible-smelling cod liver oil is brought out.
Medical science progresses rapidly, and now you can get at your druggist's real, genuine cod liver oil in sugar-coated tablets that young and old can take with ease and pleasure.
Even the run-down and skinny grown-ups who ought to /take cod liver oil, because it really is the greatest vitamine food and builder of healthy flesh in the world, will feel extremely joyful when they read this welcome news.
Of course, doctors have been prescribing cod liver oil in tablets under another name for several years, but it is only of late that one can walk into a drug store and get a box of these flesh-producing tablets just as easy as a bottle of magnesia.
Thin, run-down, anaemic men, women and children who need to grow strong and take on flesh are advised to get a box of McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Tablets, and if you don't gain 5 pounds in 30 days just get your money back.
One woman gained fifteen pounds in five weeks, according to her own doctor, and she had three weeks. A very sickly child, nine, twelve pounds in seven months, and now plays with other children and has a good appetite.
Just ask for McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Tablets. Any good druggist will tell you that they are wonderful flesh and health builders. Only sixty cents for 60 tablets.

Catholic Priest At St. Benedict Sunday
The coming of Father Jos. A. John, the Negro Catholic priest, to Saint Benedict's church, Sunday, June 29, is an event in the history of this parish that should be long remembered. The colored priest, of the Catholic church, a very few in number, are all scholars with a record and have been generally kept around the centers of Catholic schools and colleges.
This is not only the first time that a colored priest will have addressed a congregation in Pittsburgh, but in all probabilities the last time within this generation.
Regardless of race, creed or color the people should hear this scholarly man who, while in St. Louis, Mo., only a few weeks ago created a furore of questions on the race problem in the church that cannot be answered in words but in deeds.
Father John will speak at both masses in the morning and at 2 p.m. Judge Reid and Judge Drew will speak on current topics that will be of interest to the Negro.
Nothing comes in so handy at times, on advice of counsel, as a poor memory.

KANSAS CITY WINS 3; GAIN IN LEAGUE RACE
SITE
CHICAGO, Ill., June 26 — The Memphis Red Sox, who have long sought an entry into the Negro National league, took the place of the Indianapolis A. B. C.'s owned by Mrs. C. I. Taylor, Saturday at Cleveland accepted the league standing of 3 won and 19 lost now held by indianapolis. Owners of the Memphis club feel certain that before long they will have wiped out this handicap and will surprise the fans throughout the circuit. The going of Mrs. Taylor's club, while it might be only temporary, is regretted, as the Indianapolis club was once one of the strongest factors not only in the league, but the leader. C. I. Taylor, now dead, fought long for the formation of the league.
The raids made by Eastern clubs on the Indianapolis club for players has so weakened it that it seemed impossible to build up a strong enough club out of the young strong, willing ball players who lacked the experience of seasoned veterans, and the fans throughout the league cir-

KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 26.—Mia Kansas City Monarchs defeated the Detroit Stars Sunday in both ends of a double-header by the scores of 13 to 7 and 4 to 3, before more than 8,000 fans. Both games were full of brilliant plays and kept the big crowd on their toes through both contests. "Bullet" Rogan faced Cooper in the second game, and it was a pitcher's battle until the last inning. By agreement, the second game was a game timing affair, and the Stars were in the lead in the seventh, with the score standing 3 to 2. The locals got to Cooper in the last inning, putting across two runs. Score of the first game:

Manager. Dismukes, pitcher, goes to Birmingham to take up the reins of management. Dixon, first string catcher of the A.'s, goes also to Birmingham. Both men reported to Capt. Joe Rush at the conclusion of their last game with the A. B. C.'s Sunday against a white club.
Memphis opened Saturday at Cleveland and the schedule has been changed somewhat for the following week. Memphis plays Foster's American Giants at Chicago June 28 for four games instead of the St. Louis club.
Either Memphis or the Cleveland club will play Birmingham here on July 4 in place of the Giants, who will be in Kansas City.

Suffering but one defeat out of their last five starts, the Homestead Grays are continuing to set the pace for local independent teams hereabouts. T. T. club, although without the services of Beckwith, are playing with a spirit and a vim which gives them the breaks and enables them to win most of their games.
The pitching staff at present is giving Manager Posey most of his worry. "Lefty" Williams, Oscar Owens and Rile are being forced to carry the burden of twirling, and with the club playing every d.y in the week and two games on Sunday, the twirlers are not being given Millville Friday, won over the Braddeck Elks and the Homestead C. M. C. club Saturday, lost to the Wheeling Bauers Sunday, and won from Ford City Monday.

LINCOLN DOUBLE HE TAYLOR'S
LINCOLN GIANTS WIN DOUBLE HEADER FROM TAYLOR'S POTOMACS
New Yorkers, Although Handicapped by Injuries, Continue to Play Winning Ball.
NEW YORK, June 26. Although handicapped by the loss of both first-string catchers ("Texas" Burnett and "Rich" Gee), who are out of the game for several weeks with injuries, the Lincoln Giants scored two easy victories over the Washington Potomac here Sunday. The first game was won by a score of 7 to 3 and the other 9 to 4. "Red" Tray opposed Grier on the mound in the first game and had a comparatively easy time winning. The principal weakness of the local team, their inability to hit, was not at all apparent. George Scales led his team mates with four hits, and was closely followed by Kenyon, who scored three. A home run by Country Brown and a *star* catch by Houshcote were the features of the game. In the other contest Holland opposed Hampton and both pitched good ball, but Hampton received poor support. His team mates made seven errors behind him, which were responsible for at least four runs.
Baseball fans here are all. i. accipiting some real baseball next Sunday, June 29, when the Royal Giants play here for the second time this season. Judy Gans will attempt to avenge the shut-out given his team a few weeks ago by the Brooklynites.

EVERETT, Mass., June 26.—The Philadelphia Giants defeated the Everett City team Saturday on the High School grounds by the score of 7 to 2.

The score: Giants .....0 0 1 1 0 0 2 3 0—7 Evett .....0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 2—4 At Roxbury last Tuesday police reserves were called to suppress a riot of 4,000 spectators and play during a ball game on the Walbole street grounds. The riot started over a ball that had been protested as top-sided by Shortstop Dallas, of the Philadelphia Giants, in the last half of the eighth inning. St. Andrews was leading at the time by 13 to 7.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., June 26.—Opportune hitting enabled the Hildale Club to score a win over the Brooklyn Royal Giants, the Philadelphiaians making the most of the seven bingles garnered off the delivery of Joe Williams at Hildale Park; score, 4 to 2.
Jess Winters, the southpaw flinger of Bolden's squad, was on the run for the home team, and despite the fact that he was a same number of hits that Williams was touched up for, the lanky left hander scattered them in such a manner that the Brooklyn invaders were only able to dent the glad gum on two occasions. The game marked the ninth league victory for Winters out of eleven starts.
Irving Brooks, the hard-hitting right fielder of the Brooklyn team, was forced out of the game in the fourth inning, when he fell heavily hit, and injured his first base on a safe out of the game more than half of last season with a broken leg and today's injury occurred to the same member.
The Giants scored a run in the second inning, Spearman doubled to center and scored on Wagner's two-base blow down the left field foul line. Johnson Hill, the Waxachachie Texan, accounted for the other tally of the Brooklyn team when he hit one of Winters' offerings high and far over the center field fence. Hill-dawn evened up matters in their half

He did not succeed in bringing any players back with him, but upon his return Saturday morning announced that he had secured a formidable battery from one of the leading league clubs. They are Catcher Mackey and Pitcher "Lip" Winters.
These men are expected here this week and will add the necessary color to the Grays which have always made them one of the most formidable clubs in the tri-state district. Beckwith, following his release by the Grays, became the most "sought after" ball player in the league. Telegram and telephone calls hit the tittsburgh-shore, the news came out in theaters. Early Wednesday morning a telegram reached this office from John Henry Lloyd, Lloyd had understood that the Grays had disbanded and wanted four of the Grays' players.
But Charles P. Snedden, owner of the Baltimore Black Sox, was just about two jumps ahead of the rest of the field. Spedden, in Philadelphia with his team last Tuesday, saw Posey and immediately hopped ahead the first train for Pittsburgh. He arrived on Wednesday afternoon, only to find that his man had left for Chicago the same morning. Nothing daunted he wired Beckwith in Chicago. The wire beat the player to his home town, and Spedden then boarded a flyer here Wednesday night, going to Chicago. Friday The Pittsburgh Courier received the following wire from Spedden:
"On my way East with Beckwith." Beckwith is without doubt one of the greatest ball players of all times. Still a young man, he will give the Black Sox just that punch without which they cannot hope to rise above third place. His acquisition has made Baltimore one of the strongest clubs in the East, and the league race from now on promises to take on all the glitter of real fireworks.

‘The’ first round was one of those

little damage was done by anyone.
But.in the second George decided to
unlimber his cannon. His already
locally famous one-two punches
rained on the jav-and ribs of Jack
and brought the blood from his nose
and mouth. Towards the end of the
heat the invader took 2 seven count

PITCHER HAMPTON, OF THE POTOMACS, comes to dat with a
grievance, Hampy desires the sporting populace to know that he was not
one of the hurlers who were maltreated by Chester last week when that
club smothered the Capitol boys under an avalanche of base-hits. Hamp-
ton was only a _pingh-puncher in that debacle, coming through with a
triple in the ninth. Someone got the records twisted.
THE BALTIMORE BLACK SOX came dangerously near a no hit
shutout the other night. Bill Pierson; working for Lits, had fifteen strike-
outs and did not yield a hit till Rojo pinch-doubled in the ninth. An infield
ost brought the Cubanola over. - a

| HILLDALE HAS ADDED A NEW PITCHER to their hurling staf
|in the person of Underhill, a gunner who has been very, very good with
the Darby Giants, a semi-pro organization. In his first start he won over
the Ascension Catholie Club and gave that hard-hitting crew but five
bingles.

OTTO BRIGGS, GUARDIAN OF THE RIGHT PASTURE, has re-
turned to the Hilldale lineup. Old Reliable jammed up x thumb down at
the Shore and it rendered him hors du baseball. But Richard is himself
again and Philly fandom may arise from the anxious seat. Steady, siill-
ful, conscientious—that's Otto.

| LUIS, LE BULL, demon financier of the Pampes, has made such im-
possible demands for a fight with Harry Wills, who is sometimes atyled
“Paddy's Goat”, that Richard’s representative in the Argentine’ has
broken off negotiations and is leaving for home soon, According to Rick-
ard’s man the only thing which Firpo did not want was the original keg
of liquor which the Dutch bartered to the redskins for Manhattan island.

WHAT AMOUNTS TO A HOUSE-CLEANING has just been gone
through with by Benjamin Taylor, Esq., who pilots the Washington-Po-
tomags afield. Ben has handed unconditional releases to Stringbeane Wil
liams and George Shively, pitcher and outfielder respéctively. He has
farmed out to Providence Newsome and Bell, hurlers and Owens, short-
stop. George Robinson and Taylor are going to heve a winner and they
are going to have peace on thelr club if they have to fight for it, Ben
says that if he cannot win with stars he can do no more than lose with-
out them. Which somehow or other sounds like a mouthful to us.

YOUNG MURDERER OF
STUDENT BANGED
Suspected of Four Other ‘villings.
Hated White Race.
FLORENCE, Ariz. June 26. —
William B. Ward,” Negro, was
| hanged at ‘dawn this morning at the
state prison here for the murder of
Ted Grosh, Arizona University stu-
dent, in Orta county~December 26.
Because of the intense feeling
against Ward immediately following
/his arrest, he was tried in Florence.
Ward was convicted on April 15, the
jury returning a verdict in’ six
miiutes.
Following his convie<on and con-
fession here he attempted to gain
‘his freedom by attempting to kidnap
and hold in his cell two women mis-
sionaries who were calling on him.
| One of the women sustained severe
injuries. Fellow convicts in the
prison rushed to their rescue and
were prevented from killing Word
only by the intervention of the su-
perintendent of the prison.
Phoenix officers suspecte? Ward
als) of the slaying of Mrs. Alma
Boudreau. whose body was found in
/a school yard at Phoenix, and addi-
tional evidence connected him with
the slaying of Dunean Waller and
Ruth Tucker, near Memphis, Tenn..
January 27, 1923, and ef Obe Syen-
‘cer. near Memphis on May 23, 1923.
| Blame for his criminal career was
laid by Ward on the white race,
which he has hated since seeing the
burning at the stake of :ix Negroes

to ask for a raise he goes to his employer himself, he don't send some one else. As he feels that he is more capable of explaining his position than anyone else. And we as a race will get better results if we go to Uncle Sam ourselves, than we can ever expect to get by sending some one else.
When we say Editors we do not mean the half bred men that are called Editors that put out some of the papers that are in circulation; that are more of a disgrace than a credit to the race, but we mean real Editors that have the welfare of the race at heart, and are able to express the sentiment of the Negro race as a whole freely and fearlessly. A Yorker or that the Aaror had the privilege to hear downed his own race while in the south, in order to make friends with the whites and save his scalp thereby. The race would be better off without such men as this.
To make them more detestable they are the only ones that gets an audience in the white press of the Southern States. Such men as Marcus Garvey, who said in his address in this city that this was a white man's country, that we should not expect to rule or hold important office in this country as the white man made this country what it is and that he would not stand to see Negroes hold important office in the south, if this is the case as he sees it he is blind as the Negro has done more for this country than any other race, and has got less credit for it than any other race. He has fought in every war that America has fought since it has been captured. We have a claim on this country yet a Negro has the audacity to say that he has no chance on this country. We have a claim on this country and will continue to press this claim until it is granted citizenship with all the rights and privileges of a citizen, regardless to the cries of Marcus Garvey or any one

A "Clearance" Sale at the beginning of the Summer season! But when the weather man breaks records we are forced to do the same. Usually we got started selling Summer goods in earnest after May 15, but the cold, miserable rain, weather made both weather merchandise out of the question. So, we came to June with heavier Summer stocks than we have ever carried.
Greater values—greater variety—greater dress sale than we have ever known in Pittsburgh atthe prices Manufacturers found themselves with huge surpluses of dresses that they couldn't dispose of. It is natural that many of them turned to this
humor, it is not confined to one subject; it is all through the paper. "Amos Hokum" and "Hambone's Meditations." And almost any section that you'll find in any paper in the country, that is; daily newspaper or weekly newspaper, you'll find a column under that heading in the Pittsburgh Courier.

High School Graduates Hear
Charles H. Houston, Just
Returned From Trip to
Europe.
(Special to the Pittsburgh Courier)
By WALTER J. SINGLETON
WASHINGTON, D. G., June 26—
The graduates of Dunbar: High
school at commencement exercises
Monday night in the auditorium of
the institution, 198 were presented
with diplomas by Mrs. Bettie G.
Francis, former member of the
board of education.
The address of the evening was delivered by Counselor Charles H. Houston, who recently returned from a year's study abroad, on a scholarship won by him. Counselor Houston was an alumnus of Dunbar, and stressed the fact that the graduates' work has just begun, and that ten years from now each of them would be in a position to take life's work. His talk was brief and to the point, and made a favorable impression upon all who were so fortunate to hear him. Garnet C. Wilkinson, assistant superintendent of schools, who presided, praised the work of Principal Walter L. Smith, the faculty and congratulated the class which was the largest in the history of this school.
Perhaps the most interesting and pleasing features of the evening were the presentation of two valedictorians, Joseph Jenkins and Sara Moore. The records of these students were perfect in deportment and scholarship for the four-year course. No other school in the area presented two Columbia assemblies in one class, perfect assemblies in due to principal Smith and his efficient corps of teachers.
The sixteen other honor students announced were Janet Avery, Mildred Barton, Rudella Gordon, Mary Morton, Lucille Petrus, Doris Ridgley, Eloise Robinson, Lillian Washington, Martin Cotten, Frances Gregory, Ellis Kendall, Bruce Robinson and Ralph Wright.

Five English New For Publishing
Five English Newspapers Fined For Publishing News of Crimes
Five English Newspapers Fined For Publishing News of Crimes
LONDON, June 26—Five English newspapers to-day were fined sums aggregating 21,600 by the King's Bench court for contempt of court in having published certain articles, three of which were connected with the Crumbles murder case and the two other with the Sheringham slander case. Costs of the suits must also be borne by the newspapers involved. The heaviest fine, one of 21,000, fell on "The London Evening Standard", which was charged with having kept out of the way of the police one of the leading witnesses in the Crumbles case and with publishing a statement by her after she had been warned by the police not to make a statement to anybody.
"The Daily Express" which, like "The Evening Standard" is a Beaverbrook publication, and "The Manchester Guardian" were both fined £300 in connection with the same case. "The London Daily Chronicle" and "The Norwich Mercury" were fined £100 each in connection with the other case.
All the newspapers concerned, with the exception of "The Evening Standard" apologized for their contempt, and it was brought out that this is the first charge against "The Guardian" in half a century. Declaring that cases of this kind

Morose Mother Poisons Infant
TUSCALOOSA, Ala., June 26—(By The Associated Negro Press)—A demented colored woman, Hattie McClendon, killed her infant child last Tuesday night by giving it a big dose of carbolic acid. It is an extremely pathetic case because the mother, until recently, was regarded a most intelligent woman. It is believed that she lost her mine through the death of an older child or whom she was very fond. Despite that initial victimization, thorities are holding her in jail accusing her of murder. The colored people are much aroused about the case.

irrespective of color, would help itself by aiding the other, and that no particular group should be held responsible for not reaching the maximum requirements of our country's best citizenship. J. Silas Harris, of Kansas City, Mo., president of the congress, appealed for equal business opportunities and a letting down of the barriers that kept the Negro from engaging in enterprises because of his color. Other speakers on the program included the Rev. William E. Bland, of Pleasantville, N. J.; Dr. Jones Griffith, of New York, a "Welshman of Wales," and W. P. Epps, of Richmond, Va.
Historical Musical Fund Hall Is Sold
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., June 26—
The Historical Musical Fund Hall,
once the most famous music center
in the country, has been sold to the
Philadelphia Workmen's Circle Lyceum. The property is at S02 to S10
Locust street.
The passing of the hall to new owners will recall to the minds of old-time Philadelphiaians days when Jennie Lind, Patti and other great artists of their time appeared in concerts, the brilliance of which is now history. The musical history of the building, has ever been its outstanding feature, but most of one of many features attending its early popularity. In Musical Fund Hall was held the first National Republican Convention, when Fr. mont was nominated for the Presidency, and there also took place the amending of Pennsylvania's constitution by the constitutional convention in 1837. Famous lecturers and men prominent in every walk of life made addresses in the auditorium, and many of the brilliant social activities of former years were the hall. Late years most of the social affairs of the colored people have been held here, so it is with regret we note the passing of this historic hall.

Beautiful Girl Reveals Secret
Once my hair was anything but long and softly so as it is now, and my complexion was sallow, and there were often 'unsightly pimples on my face.
One day I heard of Exelento Quinine Pomade for the hair and purchased a jar. Almost immediately it stopped all dandruff, made my hair grow long, soft and fine, and gave it a delightful sheen.
Because of the perfectly wonderful results I obtained from Exelento Quinine Pomade, I purchased a far cry of Exelento Skin Beautifier. It changed my sallow complexion to a clear, lovely skin, glowing with health. For similes and other skin blemishes, it has no equal.
If I am as beautiful as people say, it is all due to Exelento preparations. Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Beautifier may be obtained for only 25% at most drug stores, or will be sent postpaid upon receipt of price by the

YOUNG PHILADELPHIA BOY
DROWSN AT ASBURY PARK
-Roland F. Tyson, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Guy Tyson, was drowned in
Asbury Park last Monday, while on
a week-end pleasure trip with some
of his boy pals.
He was an expert swimmer with
many strokes at his hand, but was
striken with cramps and was
drowned almost immediately.
He was just twenty years old, a
wonderful spirit, kind and fine, and
adventuresome. He was a born
leader from a little boy among his
playmates, his older brother,
him, to his he grew older.
He was intense in anything that he
went in for; always willing and
determined to get the best results.
He was of a quiet, yet happy disposition
and was a good boy in his home
life, clinging very close to his
parents. He was active in church
work, being especially interested in
the musical part of the program.
The news of his drowning was a terrible shock to his parents and sisters and brothers. It was so sad to believe that a pleasure trip had ended thus.
He was buried among an array of lovely flowers at the Marion cemetery on Thursday last. Rev William Lloyd. Omes officiated. He spoke so beautifully over the body of Roland F. Tyson. He shall long be remembered among his many friends and his loving family. Six of his boy associates acted as pallbearers. It was the passing of a young and beautiful spirit, whose influence and love shall long affect the hearts of his loved ones.
MRS. ANNIE MALONE
CHARMS QUAKER CITY
WITH HER PRESENCE
Last week a wonderful little woman was in our city for a few days, and it was only a few days, too, because Mrs. Annie Malone is so busy giving her time, her ideas, her ideals to her work that she is scheduled from one day to another in each and every year, aiming to perfect her profession. She is, indeed, a marvelous spirit, a woman with a vision and a purpose. She has made the Poro Hair System a well-established and successful institution throughout the United States. She spoke inspiringly to groups of young women who have chosen this hair profession as their life's work, following the Poro System.
The graduation exercises 'or her students was a tremendous success. It was held at Allen Chapel Church, at Seventeenth and Bainbridge streets, on last Wednesday evening. Mrs. Malone is p.i.i.n., unassuming, but, oh! so wonderful, and is worth her weight in gold. She is the builder of a massive plant in St. Louis. It covers an important corner in the big metropolis. It is called Poro College. Here she trains and prepares young womanhood to go on; not only giving them the hair profession, but also molding and shaping their ideals for the big outlook ahead of them. Mr. Annie Malone was a welcome visitor in our midst, and we hope that on her next visit she will be able to stay longer and know more in our city.
Solomon Porter Hood, Minister to Siberia.
Central Church was graced on last Sunday morning by a delightful guest in the person of the Hon. Solomon Porter Hood, Minister to Siberia. He is a diplomat of no little importance. He has poise, charm and the power to impress and serve. He is home to the United States on a furlough for a few weeks. He is, indeed, an able representative of the United States in Siberia, because of his training and exquisite manner and capabilities. He left an intense message in the hearts of the congregation of Central Church. He spoke of the tradition and history of Central Church in Philadelphia, which was gratifying to the minister and all those present.
DAVIS-MURDAH NUPTIALS
June is the month of brides and
roses. And there is always a bet on
which can be sweetest—the bride or
the bride that always under the
breeze of mottled warm dune.
The bride was the sweeter on last
Saturday evening.
Annie Anderson Davis and James W. Murdah were joined in the holy bonds of matrimony at 7 o'clock by Rev. Thompson, at the home of the bride's mother-and father in Wilmington. The wedding was very quiet, both families being the only guests present.
After the ceremony a delicious supper was served. Midst showers of rice, confetti and the traditional tin cans and old shoes the couple left Wilmington for Philadelphia, where they are going to live. The bride was married in blue and carried a bouquet of roses.
Mr. and Mrs. James Murdah, Jr. are both very well known and loved among a large group of friends in Wilmington and Philadelphia.
Only time will tell. Several months ago Dan Cupid betrothed this couple and now, in six months, they are man and wife.

Boys' Camp
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. July 26—
Among the many books and articles
written on the subject of games and
sports any one or two of the following
biography will provide much
activity for your boys and girls.
First look through your own
library—"The Book of Knowledge",
"Book of Facts", "Our Wonder
World", "Encyclopedias", "Old Almanacs." These sets usually have
names and descriptions of plays and
games, sometimes a whole volume
on this subject.
2. The library for books: "Games";
by Jessie Bancroft; "Games and
Dances," by W. A. Stecher; "Gymnastic
Games Classified," by E. H.
Arnold; "Games for Girls"; "Spelling
Athletic Library," for information
in games and sports; also, How
to Play Correctly.
3. Books on plays, Games, Sports, etc. may be purchased at department stores, bookshops, or from publishers direct. Handbook of Playground: Association No. La Maitresse avenue, New York, will give valuable assistance free to leaders of groups.
4. Scout, manual, "Boy Scouts of America," may be obtained from local Scout headquarters. See City or Telephone Directory.
Every energetic fellow loves action and plenty of it he should have. The weak and pampered may passively re-l upon others for their amusement, but while content to do so they remain weak, flimsy and undeveloped. The hearty and robust scorn passivity. They want wholesome worth-while exertion that demands blood, brawn, endurance and mental alertness—action spiced strongly with uncertainty and daring. To give this thorough activity the leader must be prepared and enthusiastically put "pep" into the play.
Next week: Camp swimming and water sports.

Mrs. Muriah looked charming on Sunday. She wore a soft, pleated frock in black georgette, trimmed with bands of silk eruco lace. Her hat was leghorn and black silk and straw, touched with a black appliqué flower. Black slippers and nude stockings completed an altogether stunning model.
Will Marion Cooke, Paul Robeson and Helen Underhill.
On Sunday, May 22, the Garrick Theater was wide-awake, although it was midnight. A wonderful all-star show was presented to a hearty group of folks. Will Marion Cooke was the same charming director and won the hearts of his audience upon his first bow. Paul Robeson is an artist and he proves it more every time he appears. Helen Underhill was very lovely and did our allly proud.
"Strutten' Time" is a delightful musical comedy, full of color, clean comedy and sweet, snappy music. Eddie Hunter is a wonderful comedian, funny and very different. He deserves great credit in gathering together such an array of talent.erta Hunter can surely sing, Effie Hunter can dance out of this work. And who could but love Andrew Tribbble? He has his work over. "Strutten' Time" is a good show.

opportunities to acquire a public school education, which this great state vouchesafes to every child, regardless of creed or color.
This gateway, beautiful in its artistry, engages the constitution, represents far more than its material value. It stands here as a silent but eloquent expression of c'he abiding loyalty of the colored citizens to a state which stands for justice, supremacy of the law and equal opportunity to all."
The speaker told the object of the training School. He first stated that the purpose of the school was to equip the student with manual training and industrial education for the colored institutions of this kind," continued the doctor "are just as essential to the well-founded development of a race as colleges and conservatories."
Dr. Cannon told of the founding of the school by the late Rev. W. A. Rice in 1886. At times it only falls to the lot of some to light the spark of curiosity in the numerous existence, the school, through the well-directed efforts of several colored men, passed into the possession of the state, and thus marks the beginning of New Jersey's inspiration for the manual and industrial arts. He also told of the first appropriation given the school by the state legislature. Insignificant in its beginning, the school has become the pride of the state and the admiration of those for whose benefit it was given. In the name of the colored citizens of New Jersey we donate this gateway and dedicate it to the high ideals of service and character as now taught by the esteemed principal and his faithful co-workers. We serve as a race re-dedicate ourselves to the service of humanity.
The gateway was received on behalf of the school by Dr. Solomon Porter Hood, United States minister to Liberia, and on behalf of the state Col. B. Stewart, chairman of the Bordentown School Committee.

Democratic Bunk
OUT IN Chicago the Democratic boss has offered the name of a Negro as the party candidate for Congress against the present incumbent, Martin B. Madden, Republican. It is thought by some that the Democrats are offering the name of the Negro in order to get Negroes to vote against Madden. The Courier does not subscribe to any such deception. There is only one reason the Democrats of Chicago would put up the name of a Negro, and that is to draw Negro votes from some Republican candidate.
The trick, as it is played in Chicago, is too open on its face. If the Democrats think Negroes are too dull to understand the trick they are due a rude awakening. No Negro can afford to vote a Democratic ticket, or for a Democratic candidate for any office in this country as long as the Democratic party refuses, as it has in the past, to adopt a plank in its party platform dealing favorably with the Negro and his peculiar political problems.
The Democratic Convention in New York will not adopt a plank dealing with the Negro and the many injustices done him in this country. The place to put a party on record is at its national convention. The heart and soul of a party find expression in the platform of that party. When the Democratic party adopts a Negro plank in a national convention, then; and not until then, will it be time to consider Democratic candidates, white or black, in any given district. Chicago can no more commit the Democratic party to the Negro without a party plank in the party platform than can Memphis or Louisiana.
The Negroes of Chicago must not be fooled by the trick. They must know that the Negro candidate is put up to see if Negroes think more of their rights and political opportunities than they do of the color of their skin. Negroes love each other, but not when a Negro is put up to deprive other Negroes of political representation.
The Negroes of Chicago will vote for Martin B. Madden, and they will do it as long as the Democratic party refuses to adopt a Negro plank in the party platform. Madden represents the Negroes who are Republican, and Negroes will not swallow a little "color scheme" in the name of "race loyalty" just to build up the very party that refuses to write into its platform one word in defense of the Negro. When the Democratic party convenes and adopts a Negro plank in the party platform, then we will have some faith in a Democratic district, that offers a Negro candidate for Congress.
When Pat Hatrison, Tom Heflin, Simmons and Overman, Shields, Caraway and Mayfield, and other Democrats of their kind, can stand on their two feet in a Democratic convention and vote for a Negro plank in their party platform, then we believe that the Democratic party is sincere in its desire to treat the Negro squarely in this country.
The Campaign and the Klan
THE chesty Ku Klux Klan has encountered the unexpected. It faces its certain death in the campaign now about to be launched by the two major political parties of the country. For some time the Klan has been trying to wield local influence upon elections, and by such a method, take hit of the offices of the country. Its boldness to come up to national conventions with a request for a plank in the party platform seems to spell its political end.
The Republican party counted the Klan not worth whist and it is as safe to predict that the Democrats in New York City, in convention assembled, will not offend Al Smith and I followers by writing into the party platform any language which may possibly be construed to favor the hooded organi

The Republican party counted the Klan not worth while, and it is as safe to predict that the Democrats in New York City, in convention assembled, will not offend Al Smith and his followers by writing into the party platform any language which may possibly be construed to favor the hooded organization. The Klan will fail in New York just as it did in Cleveland. And it should fail. The Klansmen forget that the whole organization is born of religious rot and race prejudice. This can not be construed to be Americanism, the kind we fought for in Flanders Field.
But it is fortunate for Republicans that the Democrats will never be able to divorce themselves from the hooded knights. Having been born in the South, the land of uncompromising prejudices likewise the land of Democrats, who know nothing of democracy, the Klan and the Democratic party come North with many things in common. The Democrats of the North can never underwrite the Klan and its program, nor can the North expect to build a Democratic organization with the Klan tied to it. The Republican party will never need to compromise with the Klan, and the Democratic organizations all over the country will have the embarrassing question to carry as long as Southern Democrats constitute, as they do, the leaders of the Klan and the Democratic party.
The campaign will find the Klan ignored by two conventions. They may try to support one party as against the other, but any such attempt will injure the party receiving the Klan support, and this injury will warrant immediate repudiation by the party to which the Klan tries to tie its fortunes.
Two million eight hundred thousand people, admittedly prejudiced, and expressly opposed to freedom of religion in America, will never conquer the rest of the population of this country. Their cry about the Constitution, one hundred per cent, similar rot, will return to haunt them in the near future years. The Klan is not a national factor, nor does it enjoy national favor.
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION
NEW YORK.
The Boston Chronicle rises to ask of those who know, "What means the word 'race' to us all?" A little thought will show 'tis not exclusively our right to use it as we please. We've written with such laxity we crowd it in with ease whenever we talk of acts of men belonging to our group. We call them 'race men' just as if no other verbal coup contains such truth and accuracy. Some seem to think it wipe to ignore etymology and even capitalize this common designation that applies to Jap or Pole. Don't give the white press jokes on us, but ease my harrowed soul.
The president of Wilberforce is Dr. Gilbert Jones. That's progress. When it comes to brains the church should make no bones of placing in the forward ranks the men of skill and power, for when it comes to scholarship he's trained up to the hour.
The Atlanta Constitution prints a message from a man who, though a son of Dixie, says he's staunch Republican. He says that men like Link and Ben are truly educated; he'll not condemn who works with them and feels he's compensated. He calls for liberal reading of the journals that we edit, says the Southern South would open up if they would give us credit for wanting to be left alone, for ability to think, for wanting schools and whatever else will bring us out of kink and place us on the basis of men of other hue—to all of which we say "Amen." Read it: you'll say so, too.
A boomerrang has struck a gang of businesses we know who stood upon the sidelines and watched the passing show as one of our quillpushers lambasted only one of those who ply the self-same trade and may have thought it fun to see their old competitor squirm 'neath the flying lash, but when they woke the liberal talk had cut up such a dash that all their kind was mired, their linen passing muddy. Moral: Whenever you're helped or hurt, just keep in mind your buddy.
Comes Roscoe now and claims that we a new day have in court, that party recognition is here to hold the fort; that men like Perry Howard, Link Johnson or Bob Church will keep us in the front rank—not leave us in the lurch. We hope it's so, for we would have the offices of old, and new ones; too, to add to these before our hopes grow cold. But more than this we'd like to see a settled-down condition when men, because they're seen as such, receive full recognition. But parties, leaders and their blocs will surely get our goat until we struggle for and sieve our right to use our vote. An instance now outstanding for the need of broadcast strength is the easy-dying Dyer bill, for it has stretched its length upon the Senate cooling board. It's spirit's in its heaven until Jim Johnson calls it forth. To him alone seems given the courage and the patience to fight till we awake. If we can't rouse up otherwise I pray for an earthquake.
Please note the "leaders" North and South—the "effort" to unite at Cleveland. Was that chairmanship deserving of a fight? Did we not substitute mere form for substance in that meeting? Does not the will of Butler hold when programs we're completing? Three babies have been sent to jail down in the state of Texas. By doing this the judge has raised a crop of big complexes. The state will take a lonely child whose mother goes to jail, or raise so many criminals—and thereby hangs a tail. The Jim Crow beach in Washington, designed for us alone, did not materialize, we see. Perhaps some day we'll own of power and pelf also to cause our friends to see there is no need of special plans to comfort you and me. A kitten dropped out of a bag 'way up in Indiana; a gentleman of culture says that in a quiet manner a hundred thousand bucks were given to carve rebel's head on Stone Mountain, down in the South, but nothing had been said until the donors had a split; they pulled the mask, and, man, we saw the fly the ointment holds—the nauseating Klan!
MY JEWELS
Three jewels have I in my crown,
Three gems beyond compare,
More precious they, tho' if less renown,
Than any rulers wears.
Each has a heart of purest gold
Inset with love so true
That all are dazzled who behold
These gems of warm bright hue.
I keep them safe within my home
Lest robbers steal my joy.
And never from my heart they roam
My wife, my girl and boy.

TOOOTH WISDOM
A man who has lost his teeth may be wise—but, a man who keeps his teeth is wiser; and a man who keeps his teeth clean is wiser yet. Not everyone has a wisdom tooth, but everyone may have tooth wisdom. Did you ever see a person who not only did not restrict the immigration of germs by washing the mouth and gargling the throat, but who even neglected to clean his teeth? Instead of getting rid of germs, foolish people actually give them a warm place in which to live, and by leaving decaying particles of food between the teeth, spread bountiful meals for their enemies. Naturally, warm and well fed, the germs make conveniently placed teeth. With the enduring, enormous, daily increase in their families, these holes grow larger.
Not content with menacing a person with a set of false teeth, germs insult their careless landlord by throwing refuse (i.e. pus and poison) into the mouth. This poisonous, germ-laden material is swallowed and from the stomach may be swept throughout the body. Stomach ulcers then obstruct this poisoning and the patient may loss of appetite and indigestion. The condition called "just not feeling well is very often due to neglected, unclean or decaying teeth. Being below your normal weight may be due to dental trouble. So-called "rheumatism" may be caused by infection spread from this source; and some people are crippled for life as a result of it. The daily intake of food, your resistance to all kinds of diseases, keeps you "below par," preventing you from "living your life to its full." Results of carelessness do not show all at once, but you cannot escape some evil effect if you fail to give daily care to your teeth.
Clean your teeth after eating with a clean brush. Use dental floss to remove particles of food which the brush cannot reach. See dentist for very serious stains. From the moment you clean your teeth, from tooth, clean it! First teeth are important. See that your children acquire careful habits early.
Appoint Rev. Bennett On Howard Univ. Board
Appoint Rev. Bennett On Howard Univ. Board
(Special to the Pittsburgh Chronicle)
WASHINGTON, D. C. June 26—
The judges of the District Supreme Court of the District of Columbia have announced the appointment of the Rev. F. I. A. Bennett, graduate of Howard University Divinity School, and pastor of Calvary P. E. Church, (of which he was the founder), to succeed Counsel William L. Houston on the board, he having served only one term.
Bennett has long taken an active interest in public affairs affecting the general interest and being of our citizens. His appointment is highly satisfying to the public in general. The parents, children and teachers will find a worthy friend and advocate to please their cause.
THE-DIGEST
ACCORDING to Robert Herrick, author and traveler, the English way of dealing with the color question is much improved over the can way. He cites an instance in a Irish island in the Caribbean which tends to show that under King George the Norwegian enjoys more latitude than under president.
American presidents. If you would know that this inference is not true, ask any intelligent West Indian among the thousands who have come to the United States. On an average one will be told that the British method of dealing with people of color is the most abominable system in the world. It is hateful in that it is based on a clever conceit, a degrading flattery, and officially manipulated by pitting various shades of color against each other so that keep the race divided and weak. It is notorious that Negroes in the West Indies are color-and-cast bound. The white-colored element is given the cream of governmental favors, the middle-colored is given clerkships and civil service positions, while the darker element is ignored, except in cases where they surmount all difficulties and forge to the front in spite of studied handicaps. For that reason alone—which is at bottom economic—more black West Indians have emigrated to America than any other type. As they themselves put it: "We prefer the open, out-and-out prejudice of the American white man, who sees all Negroes alike, to the insidious and undermining favoritism of the British system."
"The English way" is just the thing for England, where the very life of the empire depends on exploiting its darker subjects. Since its darker subjects by far outnumber its whites, to successfully carry out must keep the empire faithful to what is how the faithful of whites control such a vast number in his minister's provinces and in India.
In America all have an even break. Similar hardships compel unity of purpose. That is why the American Negro is so far ahead of all other Negroes of the world.
AT MADISON-SQUARE GARDEN, in New York, all the dark hpses in the country are assembled. This week the race is not to the swift, but to he that endureth to the end.
With only one delegate to the national convention, and he an alternate, who in all probability will not get a chance to vote, the Negro Democrats are a pitiful sight. Colored Tammany in Harlem is sadly disappointed at its first attempt to play the game on a national scale. Another case of dumb luck.
AN ECHO from the Republican National Convention recently held in Cleveland is to the effect that Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia and Perry W. Howard of Mississippi will be appointed to lead Negroes of New York and Chicago in the coming Republican campaign. If this rumor materializes it will mean a blow to the party's chances of winning in November, which will not be inconsiderable.
Some people get expediency and sound principle mixed. It is argued that, since Johnson and Howard are elevated to the national committee, the highest tribunal in the party, they are the logical leaders of Negroes. They are—in Georgia and Mississippi, from whence they are elected.
THERE IS CONFUSION, by Jessie Redmon Fauset.
Published by Boni & Liveright, 61 West 48th Street,
New York. 297 pages. Price $2.00.
THESE are the words of Tennyson that gave rise to the name of Jessie Redmon Fauset's late book. The book as a book is readable. The story, however, is a bit loosely woven, then slowly drawn together so as to present several climaxes. Omit the third chapter, which gives a long, confusing genealogy of the black and white Byes, and then you may be able to go through the book without tiring.
Here is the pith of the story. Joanna Marshall, the youngest of the four children of Joel Marshall, is an American Negro girl with unusual ideas and ideals. The interpretive arts—dancing and singing—are hers as gifts of nature. Her desire is to become world famous through these arts, to sing in Carnegie Hall, Boston and London, and never to let color keep her down. Because of this desire, her sister Sylvia made this statement: "Joanna makes me sick—wanting to talk about what she's going to do all the time, with no interest in your affairs."
"Jan" succeeded as far as white America permitted her. The unique interpretation of the childish game and dance, "Say, Little Missy, Won't You Marry Me?" made her famous as Miss America in the "Dance of Nations" at the District Life Theater. Still, is this sort of success ever success?
Alexander, Philip, Sylvia (the other three Marshall children), Maggie Ellersley, Henderson Neal, Brian and Peter Bye (Joanna's lover) are the main characters connected with episodes of "confusion," but as Miss Fauset puts it—"Strange how time dissolves mysteries."
Let us seek the book from a point of view of sentences, conversation, choice of words and phrases.
The sentences vary in length and construction as to being periodic, balanced and loose.
In some instances the conversation seems to be forced—it is not natural:
Words—choice of words—in some places was exceptionally pleasing as just the vivid, connotated word was used, but unfortunately a few words are overworked. "Meticulous" is one of the overworked words.
Phrases—some were vivid—others were strained. "Deliciously tired" is one of those unusual combinations.
Remember Joanna's words and you may become a stronger Negro—"Colored people can do everything that anybody else can do. They've already done it. Some one colored person somewhere in the world does as good a job as anyone else—perhaps a better one."—(Reviewed by Thelma E. Berlack).

The only reason Henry Lincoln Johnson and W. Howard are on the national committee is that Northern Negroes forced their election as a recognition for the race in a section where lionic party is the Negro—and perforce the Negro to have a voice in the party councils because of fact. If this recognition were not granted, would be an argument against the Negro cognition elsewhere, for charity begins at home to take these same two Southern politicians over Northern Negroes is nothing more the old reconstruction principle of carpabug rule, Northern Negroes themselves could not resent being in the South, but Northern Negroes, as a self-protection, could resent it for them. But it to be thought of what Northern Negroes and Persons who indicates and particular Southern Negro politicians, Northern Negroes their own political leaders and they believe in self-government.
Let the two Negro national committees sen the states they are elected to represent, identified with that.

It gives them the life are making progress—both colored and white-race relations.

The behaviorist school of psychology has established the law that organisms raised in circumstances will react, similarly to the mare lus. This law applies as well to man as to animal or plant. Hence we find that animals have been denied through prohibitory laws of things they desire they will get them by hook or crook—mostly crook. And there are individuals who are willing to brave the sea, the desert, the swamp, the maritime prison and death for the rich returns that the gler and pirate generally garner.
Hence, the folk referred to in the history will find from reading this book that whenever there has been an opportunity to quick money by smuggling of anything, these ways been smuggling. This has been traditions and all races. It was true hundreds of and it is true today. Those who talk endure "the good old days" will learn that the people similar circumstances to those that face cans today, were just as inclined to thank at the law.
