An enthusiastic demonstration marked the unanimous election of Imperial Potentate Blake at the Wednesday morning session in Central Baptist Church.
Imperial Potentate Ceasar R. Blake will be re-elected, according to the opinion of the oldtimers who were willing to talk freely about the election. The election is scheduled to take place Friday. On account of litigation not yet completed in Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas, relative to injunctions on the part of white Shriners, the present Potentate will remain in office another and possibly several terms, or until the matter is settled, it was learned today.

The tall ruler hails from Charleston, Carolina. He is jovial and charismatic, and all the Presidents. President Sherwood, who dead the president, and an old Pittsburgh, it was gleaned from the political war-horse. Both men are well thought of among the Templars, and the Shrine has been reached before the election Friday. There will be few changes in the minor offices it is believed.
No petty, prejudices or political "skirriness" seem to mar the peaceful and harmonious spirit. All seem bent on having a good time, and judging from the smiles, there are no disappointments.
tare of the race by two other matters discussed. The first was that through its national distributed temples these Shriners distributed the petition blanks of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, thereby bringing to them the materially assisted the pardon and executive clemency that was accorded the Colored Soldiers that were under sentence at Leavenworth prison upon charges that grew out of the Houston riots of some years since. Another forward step that marks the transition of selfish interest is there participation in all Negro Sandhedrin, or meeting, of more than fifty-five Negro societies and fraternities, the first annual session of which was held in Chicago last February. This Sandhedrin is the most remarkable of the Negroes to harmoniously and jointly study their problems that has occurred in this country.
Definite Meeting Date
The Imperial Potentate recommended the establishment of a definite meeting date hereafter and suggests the fourth week in August in order that conflict with other bodies may be avoided. This is because its membership includes virtually all the important officials of the different race fraternal and business orders.
A controversial matter of especial interest in this territory was decided by the Imperial Potentate in reporting that the Imperial Council in the West Virginia, that traced their lineage to Grand Master Alfred Goodwin. In this body as accepted the decision of the Supreme Court of West Virginia. The Shriner's body by commission was established by recognizing the established legal machinery of the land. Mr. Freeman, who has for even a longer-time been identified with the United States Courts of the Colonies, is important and accolade in many of the organizations of his race.
A number of others are recommended for an honorary past illustrious potentiate's degree for meritorious services to the order.

In the design to make one厚重 Economic Scholarships during 1924 and 1925, this disclosure was made to the Preston News Service, by the head of the movement, I. J. K. Wells, after a consultation with Attorney Robert L. Vann, editor of the Pittsburgh Concur, and a member of the National Advisory Committee of the Negro Youth Movement.
The scholarships, it was announced, was valued at $150 each and will be raised in order to aid and to encourage our youth to prepare for the business field. The urgent need for a trained force in the movement for the economic movement, to seek means whereby this costly breach in our economic life may be filled. Following a brief investigation it has been concluded that the vast majority of our youth in our schools and colleges, and the best minds among them are preparing or are awaiting to prepare for the professional fields.

HUNDREDS OF SWORDS FLASH IN LONG LINE TO MUSIC OF BANDS
Delegates From All Sections of Country March Through Mass of Spectators — Parade Over Hour Long.
The vast and colorful array of the Imperial Council; Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, presented one of the most vivid spectacles seen in Pittsburgh's history, this morning when they paraded through the streets of the city window. The marchers, in long, whirling dress, the marchers courage in the easy on streets, which were choked solid with a crushing, straining, thrilled mass of humanity. Every vantage point, every building window, every object higher than the level of the street, was literally black with humanism. Poster to see the brilliant host of marchers as they swung majestically and rhythmically along.
The-red "fezzes" worn by each Shriner, together with the brilliantly colored uniforms, typical of the vast "Sahara", the steady tramp, tramp of thousands upon thousands of women, the brightly white uniforms of the ladies' auxiliaries as they swung trimly down the cheering lanes, the "pride and joy" of the race, and the distinctly novel "deacons", gave the appearance of a sea of maroon caps, mugs and fall. With "Atmoreme"
Not with many mills and atmosphere
—the many flags, banners and insignias,
and the decorations and swords worn by the Shriners—there was an absence of spontaneous enthusiasm, which gave place to one of the most beautiful forms from all phases of life and station, of all ages above a certain youthfulness, marched steadily on. It was the "day of days" for the marchers, and the enthusiasm of the enthusiasts of young and untarnished youths of tender years.
The military strains of many bands punctuated the steady tread of thousands of feet. Drilled with a precision, borne of long and tireless practice, the different commanderies performed their evolutions with a nice gliding motion, swinging with unerring skill. At such periods of the parade, as these drills took place, the crowds suring to the very edge of the "safety line" on each side of the street, broke into thunderous applause.
Weather Excellent
The weather, typical of sultry Autumn with cool, damp mornings, that midday sun was one of our sunshine in the afternoon early showers threatened to day. Too warm to be carriedade weather, the sun cast rays from jewelled em-

The line of March
Bermingham of Cedar avenue, at the line, 10,000 men strung with the line extending for a distance of more than two miles, represented every state in the Union. Long before the time for the parade to commence, the city began to take on atmosphere of a legal holiday of citizens from outlying districts and suburban towns began to arrive for the demonstration.
Down Cedar avenue to North avenue to Federal, across the Sixth street bridge up Sixth ave. to Lilienry to Fifth avenue, passing through the heart of the business district and straight out Fifth avenue to Rose Garden, where the Shriners can be seen, took the sight was awe-inspiring.
Many Ride Horses
Many of the high officers of the Shrine rode horses, caparisoned with insignia and emblems of the order. Others rode in automobiles hearing the heavily-broc-added and jewelled standards.
Notable among the outstanding features of the parade were the champion patrol from Columbus, with their yellow bloomers, their "fezes" set a correct angle and their black woolen stockings with their shoes; the illustrious Deacon Club hostess, J. A. Jackson; the "Billboard" fame and Billboard Chicago, the New York and Illinois delegations and Sam Cox, rhinic his donkey, the feature of every Shrine parade for the past eleven years.
Many States Represented States from North, East, South and West were represented in the monster demonstration. There were our own Pennsylvania delegation recipient of cheers all along the line of march. And then, glanced varying periods, appeared delegations from Illinois, Missouri, Texas, New York, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, West, Virginia, District of Columbia, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Canada, New Jersey, Tennessee, Kentucky and many other states.

Jeannette worked hard to get her job, year after year, but became neglected, but she found her work too fascinating and her independence too dear to give up for matrimony. The president of a publishing house made her his secretary and she was an efficient one. Another young man came into her life, whom she was happy to marry when her employer's incapable and indiscreet wife made it necessary. When marriage nearly proved itself a failure to a man who did not try to help her save and refused to live up to an agreement which would make it possible for them to afford children, she went back to the work she loved, found consolation in her independence, and as her position as secretary afforded no chance for advancement, she asked to be put in charge of a department ahead of her, but she left the department steadily grew. As the years passed life changed and manly, but she had made her career a success and that was worth while.

THE Goose-Step, a study of American Education, is a book giving to the public facts pertaining to the leadership of college colleges of this country found out after diligent research by an author. Possibly no phase of college life, constructive or destructive, has been left from the pages of this book. To many, if not the majority, the study is an eye-operator.
One cannot read the Goose-Steep without admiring the frankness and the candid remarks of Upton Sinclair, who modestly in speaking what he deems the truth. So much more important he has obtained from the college officials themselves.
The book is well written. It is interesting throughout and full of humor. It is well worth the reading. The author merely presents the facts and It is left to the reader to assimilate and digest them.

pital and of the New Hanover Medical Society, who is also a member of the Advisory board of the collored institution. Dr. Farthing's letter calls attention to the work of the institution for the betterment of Negro health and warmly congratulates Dr. Burnett and the colored supporters of the institution whose local support has done so much to make it successful.
The opportunity to young Negro physicians in Southern cities like this to contribute substantially to their profession and to the extension of Negro life and to community sanitation and not the least element—to interracial development through community effort, is well emphasized in the case of Dr. Burnett, for he is only 30 years old and has been graduated from Howard University Medical School only since 1917.
Perhaps the next essential element to his professional equipment has been the strong group of Negro citizens who comprise the board of directors. These are Thomas H. Cooper, Dr. W. H. Moore, Dr. A. J. Wilson, Julius Murry, Dr. Bryant, Allerck Jaffer, J. M. Jenkins, Rev. A. D. Avery, Prof. F. J. Rogers, Rev. J. T. Thomas, Dr. W. D. Bovens, James Loftin, Rev. G. Carnes, Rev. L. D. Grady and Dr. L. H. Capeheart. In addition to this body four leading white citizens and one Negro physician constitute the advisory board. These are W. D. Carnes representing the City of Wilmington; J. D. Hamilton, D. representing the county of New Hanover; L. H. Furthing, M. D., of the New Hanover-Medical Society; R. H. Lynch, financier, and Dr. W. P. Devane, graduate of Meharry and Asst. Supt. of the hospital.
Some of the figures in the story of the growth of the institution are of great interest. The cost of building and equipment approaches $50,000 which is supplemented annually. The institution has given more than 11,000 hospital days* to patients during its three years of life. There have been over 600 major operations. The Community is modern in all of its departments and a nurse training school is headed by Miss Salome Taylor.

Community has been out of the vision of a few Negro citizens in 1921 which has justified itself as to be now mainly supported itself as to be now mainly supported by the City of Washington and county of New Hanover. Community has been making records since its establishment, under the efficient guidance of Dr. Burstin and his loyal corps of supporters. Its most recent achievement is the record of no deaths among its patients for its fiscal year beginning February, 1924, to the present. This extraordinary record was incidentally revealed through a letter to the Superintendent from Dr. L. E Farthing (white), secretary of the James Walker, Memorial Hos-

Editor Vann Impressive In Delivery
CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 21—This city has been astir as hundreds of delegates from all sections, of the nation have poured into the city to attend the Diamond Jubilee of the National Negro Business League in its twenty-fifth annual session. This convention has undoubtedly been the most constructive in the history of the League, and Negro business is without doubt entering one of the most optimistic stages of the century. One of the most hopeful signs of our economic business was forecasted when the Negro press outlined its position and defined the code upon the practice of which the entire pre-race stands ready to aid in the development of our enterprises. One of the most fruitful addresses from the press, which was represented by Robert L. Vann, editor of the Pittsburgh Courrier, of the Philadelphia N. D. Brasher, of the Associated Negro Press, and Roscoe Dungee, of the Black Droop, was delivered by the Attorney and Editor Vann. The Smoky City editor in brief outlined the position and duty of the press when he said, "Once the proper business code is adopted, the press will aid in development, first by defending good business against bad; secondly, by holding, up to the reading public only the tested and accepted method of the Negro business, and finally by defending, to the last, our brave and courageous pioneers who have made, and in the future will make Negro Business the bulwark of our racial progress. Editor Vann's speech was as follows:
The Influence of the Press in the Development of Negro Business
Perhaps, we can the more intelligent terminate what constitutes our business. It must be born in mind that he who owns business, Business, of course, must vary in kind and character as rapidly as in business, Business, of course, must vary in new types of business, as well as in new innovations in our social order give rise to new activities. Any business will increase and expand as long as it can stand up to the mantle upon that business will remain constant as long as the business remains and honest in its service to the public.
It is not very difficult to determine just what types of business may be required for our group. At present, we have, in operation, barber shops, restaurants, shoe-shining partors, pool rooms, grocers, and some quarters, department stores on a modified scale, millinery, and dress-making shops, tailors, and the improvement of the scalp and hair (drug stores, insurance companies and banks. This list perhaps, but it is sufficient to indicate what types of business our group has been able to create and maintain. We are building, mining, structural steel work, railroad construction and the automobile industry, experience a change both our social and economic order in this country. If it is accepted that the activities of the Negro business of this country, it is easy to conclude that some definite system may be adopted for its creation promotion and needed activity in any given community.

Mrs. Batch Cannot Wed 'Other Man'
Well Known Canonsburg Business Man Obtains Decree — "Grounds of Adultery" Stated As Cause.
One of the most sensational divorce suits of the year, involving two popular members of local and valley social sets, came to an end last Tuesday, when Stephen Batch, prosperous business man of Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, was granted absolute divorce from his wife, Bessie M. Batch. The decree, which was handed down by Judge Cummings of the Washington County Common Pleas Court of Pennsylvania, August 18th, expressively states as cause for the divorce, "grounds of adultery" with an alleged paramous, one Walter Lowry. The decree also prohibits Mrs. Batch from ever marrying the, said Walter Lowry.
The granting of the decree marks the close of the much-discussed separation of the Batches several years ago in Burgertetown, where they resided in one of the most fashionable homes the little town affords. Friends of the couple were at odds as to what caused the matrimonial rift in the Batch household, and until the decree was made public Tuesday, the fact remained unknown.
In an interview with a reporter from The Pittsburgh Courrier, Mr. Batch refused to discuss the case. I have never discussed the couple. "I have simply what I believed the proper thing."
Mrs. Batch, who lives in Bridgeville, it is reported, has been a frequent visitor and patron to social events, having a large circle of friends here. Mr. Batch, likewise, is among the leading business men of the state.
It is rumored that Mr. Batch will soon marry a beautiful Cleveland society girl, with whom he has been seen during the past few months.
Shots Fired, 19 Taken In Church Clash
BALTIMORE, Md., Aug. 21 — Shots were fired, an alarm of fire was sounded and a near race war precipitated here late Wednesday night, when a crowd of 3,000 whites held a "protest demonstration" against St. Paul's Baptist church here. Following the shooting, police arrested four Negroes and 15 whites. A number of Negro homes had their windows broken out in the demonstration, when the marchers hurled bricks promiscuously.
century was launched when the aggressive American Federation, of Negro Students, known as the Negro Youth Movement, announced the decision to raise one thousand Economic Scholarships during 1924 and 1925. This disclosure was made to the Preston News Service, by the head of the movement, I. J. K. Wells, after a consultation with Attorney Robert A. ann, editor of the Negro Councils, member of the National Advisory Committee of the Negro Youth Movement.
The scholarships, it was announced, was valued at $150 each and will be raised in order to aid and to encourage our youth to prepare for the business field. The urgent need for a trained force in this field was the immediate cause of the movement to seek means whereby this costly breach in our economic life may be filled. Following a brief investigation it has been concluded that the vast majority of our students are college and the best minds among them are preparing or are planning to prepare for the professional fields.
Dr. Emmett J. Scott, of Howard University; Dr. Gilbert- Haven Jones, president of Wilberforce University; Editor and Attorney Robert L. Vann, of this city, and Mrs. Booker T. Washington, of Tuskegee, all members of the Advisory-Award Committee, will aid the movement in its drive for one hundred and fifty thousand dollars for that, which the movement has termed the Logical Scholarships.

CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 21—(By P. I. N. S.)—Roland Deas formerly editor of the Cleveland Call, residing at 2289 E. 89th street, was shot Monday night by traffic patrolman Deenen, when, it is alleged, he attempted to break away from the patrolman and dodge through the crowd of theater goers near E. 102nd street and Euclid avenue.

Leader in Deborah Chapter, Pennsylvania, Among Visitors to Big Conclave. Says Order is Growing.
Of the many interesting and important women attending the International Conference of the Grand Masters of the Order of Eastern Star, Mrs. Hattie P. Smith, of Mashare, grand secretary of Delegation Chapter, Pennsylvanian, stands prominently. We snapped her shirt into the Pennsylvanian camming and expectant and nervous for her.

more Fashion Display by Gay Throng of Feminity
According to the charming styles imitated by the fair-widows from several states hats for the fall are still new shape. Others are still small, but once again they reveal the feminine eyes long hidden by a drooping blim.
This means that the new hats turn up. There will be rolled brims or brimless hats, but the one principle that all smart hats obey is that the eyes must be clearly visible the hat will not meet with the approval of the advanced fashion edicts.
Velvet and satin, developed in the late fitting period of 1796, favored the first of the Napoleonic admirers. This type of hat features a high crown, slightly square and the hair rolls off the face. Large bow trimming and sometimes a smart coat with feather is used as trimming. As for color, the fall hats are one tone effects. Black and brown predominate during the month of September, but as the season adjoins green and coral hues will be much in evidence.

phasize the business, please. There is an idea prevalent that we meet for just a social time, but what a mistake! We have well laid plans for furthering the work of the Order, strengthening our chapters and gaining new courage from the glowing reports our women bring before us. We are unionizing our interests, vitalizing our forces and teaching women to do big things in a big way."
"The convention brings together large numbers of women," we ventured.
"Yes," Mrs. Smith enthused. "We are growing, splendidly; each session attests the worthwhileness of our order. It's going over, as we say."
Mrs. Smith's fraternal career is bright and blooming. She is also a great worker in clubs, having served as vice president of the Pennsylvania State Federation of Negro Women's Clubs for two terms—1921 to 1923.
Flappers Drive Men from Haunts Of Barber Shops
Flappers Drive Men from Haunts Of Barber Shops
Some of Pittsburgh's citizens of the male persuasion are joining heartily in the kick against allowing the femininity portion of the community in the barber shops, which they are in the habit of frequenting. This week it is worse than ever, for many of the visitors have bobbed hair and feel disposed to a shingle, singe or trim before attending some of the big social affairs.
One well-known citizen says that he has been driven to shaving himself in self-defense. He says that his modesty is shocked when little flippers come in the shops after he has made himself comfortable for a shave and that until there is an all-man barber shop he is doing his own shaving.
Elkins, W. Va.
Miss Margarette Dobbins, 36 Elmore street, Pittsburgh, was quietly married on August 14th to Mr. Leroy Woodruff, trombonist. Both are members of the Paris Dixie Minstrels. Mrs. Woodruff was the late teammate of the comedian, Archie Armstead. Quite an attendance witnessed the happening. Rev. George Newsome performed the ceremonies. Prof. S. C. Elliott's Orchestra furnished the music. Mrs. Hunter.furnished a real banquet for the occasion, and an enjoyable evening was spent. Much happiness was extended by the company.
"How does it feel to be the leader of the International Conferences of the Grand Chapters of the Order Eastern Star?" Mrs. S. Joe Brown, of Des Moines, Iowa, a competent, energetic little woman, hesitated and, hesitated again.
"It is all so wonderful," she says in her soft, vibrant voice, "the business of keeping in touch with thousands of worthwhile women. I like it fine, of course. Perhaps, because I enjoy being busy and know the splendid work the Order is doing. Then, too, I appreciate the honor."
Mrs. Brown arrived Sunday. Two of the staff reporters of the Pittsburgh Courrier have been trying to locate her, and it has been which position she filled with cred-like finding the proverbial needle in a haystack. For two days it has which she was appointed by the late
been a trot from the residence of Mrs. Cori Atkins in Somers street, where the Grand Matron is domiciled, to the Warren church, where the sessions are being held. Finally we were rewarded with "just a minute."
"Yes, I am pleased with Pittsburgh. Everyone has been lovely. The Order . . . we are growing numerically and financially and still going, reaching out, furthering our great cause."
"Now, you want me to tell you about myself . . . but I haven't time. Perhaps, if you ask a few questions."
We did.
We learned that Mrs. Brown is from old Virginia, but was removed early with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Wilson, to Mahaska County, Iowa, in the public schools of which county she was educated.
In the year 1902 she was happily married to Attorney S. Joe Brown, one of the leading lawyers of Des Moines, Iowa, where they still reside and where she has given considerable time to the study of the law and is holding her second commission as a Notary Public.
Mrs. Brown has had more than 25 years of experience in public life, having served when quite a young woman as superintendent of her local A. M. E. Sunday school. In June, 1900, she was elected district superintendent of Sunday schools, in which position she served for five years. Later she founded and successfully edited for two years "The Iowa Colored Woman," the official organ of the Iowa Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of which organization she later became president, and during her administration she recommended and completed a memoir in the Iowa Hall of Fame at Des Moines, of a life-sized oil portrait of the late Booker T. Washington, painted by the famous Henry O. Tanner, in Paris, and valued at more than a thousand dollars.
As a result of her further recommendation while president of the Iowa Federation there has been established at Iowa City, Iowa, a cottage which serves as a home for all colored girls who are students at the Iowa University, of the trustees of which she is chairman. In 1910 she met for the first time the National Association of Colored Women, and was appointed by Mrs. Booker T. Washington, chairman of the Department of Social Science, there with their original stunts. They made the Isis Reception a gala affair. The girls from Columbus made a colorful scene as they swayed the strains of the orchestra. Among the treasured Mrs. Phillip black cantrepe and lace. Miss Donaldson, a charming sub-deb in green chiffon and lace, and Mrs. McGruder in printed georgette. Each of the young ladies was accompanied by an Alla Babba, and each couple truly spoke for itself.
In closing the reception, Mrs. Ida Stinson, of Palestine Court, introduced the notable, after which Mrs. Blanche Clay of New York sang a very beautiful solo. The Daughters of Isis have surely established themselves in the hearts of all Pittsburghs.
Daughters of Isis Ball Lovely Affair
Pretty Clothes Add to Artistic Occasion.
By Dorothea L. Mandexter
The Grand Reception of the Daughters of Isis was a success—North, East, South and West, they come from all the corners, of our continent. The visiting strangers and delegates were loud in their praise of our city, which they consider wonderfully impressive. They like our city and its people. Many of our guests registered surprise when our city, our city's city has reached that place in the Industrial World where we really manufacture Iron and Steel, instead of "smoke".
Dt. Gertrude Hyde 'North of Des Moines, remarked that our musicale entertainers are veritable artists, while Mrs. V. B. Lawson, wife of one of Chicago's most prominent citizens and lodgeman declares that the "Courier" is quite the most interesting Northern Negro Weekly.
Not the least interesting of the features of the evening's entertainment were the ballad selections by Ladies Orchestra of Arabic Court No. 21, Chicago, and the beautiful solo by Dt. Clay of New York. The Dts. of Isis wore their uniform dress of white and gold with a stately matronyness which lent dignity to their positions. The Grande Dame of the evening was Mrs. S. Joe Brown, grand matron of the international conference of C. E. S. wife of the chaptee-orator, Sir Knight, Prince S. Joseph Brown of Des Moines. Mrs. MacDonald, present most notable princess of chapters H. T. C. wore a creation of spun gold lace with a gracefully throne capette of red and gold.
"Hospitality" strikes the keynotes of the reception given to guests of our citizens. The guests of our own Mrs. Daisy E. Lampkin are: Mrs. A. L. Hamilton, S. Mound, Ill, who were Spanish lace over satin; Mrs. Etta Hawkins, grand matron of Mt. Tacoma, Seattle; Mrs. Kathryn Wilson of Omaha, the delightful editor of "The Successful Hairdresser" a complete course in beauty culture, which has had such wide success and circulation in the West and is rapidly becoming popular in all parts of the country. Dr. Wm. Wallace and Prof. J. Hannum of. Livingstone College both of Salisbury, N. C., are also Mrs. Lampkin's guests. The guests of Mrs. Evan Baker are: Mr. and Mrs. R. Steward, Mr. and Mrs. C. Jones, Mrs. H. Fletcher, Miss Blanche Garner, Miss Leo Lucas, Miss Ella Evans and Dr. and Mrs. Bentley, all of Columbus. Mrs. Ida Harris, Grant Chapter of Ift. O. E. S. of Petersburg, Va., is the guest of Mrs. Geo-Cole, Sr. Other dignitaries are Mrs. Inez Alzam, Tampa Fla., member of O. E. S., and 1st vice president of the S. F. of N. C. and Mrs. Laura Johnson formerly of Lincoln Nebraska. Dt. of Isls, Supt. of Old Folk's Home of Omaha, and the owner of a 12 flat building in Chicago and friend of Dt. Ida Stinson of our city, who is matron of our Home for Aged and Infirm Colored women.
Charming Guests Attend Isis Dance
"Hospitality" Keynote of Gay Affair.
By Thelma L. Parr
Monday evening, August 18th, Palestine Court of the Daughters of Isis and Guilds of the Heroins of the Templar Crusade, entertained at Duquesne Garden. The ball room was a scene of grandeur. Against a background of green shrubbery, the daughters from various courts stood to receive their many gifts. Draped against the walls were the flags of the various courts, mingling with American flags. At the extreme end was the orchestra upon a platform specially built and decorated for the occasion. And the Daughters of Isis really know how to entertain. Everywhere the warm spirit of friendship was radiating from the many faces. The affair was "hospitality" personified.
Glancing here and there we noted many of our out-of-town guests. Prominent among them were Mrs. S. Joe Brown of Des Moines, Iowa, International Grand Matron of the Grand Matron's Council of the Eastern Star, Mrs. Hines of St. Joseph, Mo., Imperial Commandress of the Daughters of Isis, Mrs. Harriet Sherwood of St. Paul, Minn., Past Deputy Daughter of Isis, Mrs. Ellis of Detroit, Mich., houseguest of Mrs. Foote of Mt. Washington, Mrs. Foote of Mt. Washington, Mrs. daughter of the Grand Court of Isis, Mrs. Gertrude North of the Des Moines, Iowa, Illustrious Commandress of Aida Court, No. 50 Daughter of Isis.
The Daughters of the various courts were quite charming in their white costumes and shrine hats Our guests from Chicago, Columbus and St. Louis were equally as charming in their informal attire. Mrs. Myrtle Tucker of Parkersburg, W. Va., was quite bewitching in a frock of rose pleated crepe with cream lace. Mrs. L. Dunbar of St. Louis, the guest of Mrs. Clay of Monticello street, was quite stately in grey crepe with silver lace. Mrs. E. Miller a pretty little matron from the Windy City looks lovely in her gown of black lace over crepe. Mrs. Sparkman Dorsey of Pittsburgh, was quite demure in her quaint little frock of pink crepe. As usual, Mrs. Arthur Stevenson of Sewickley was fetching in a frock of red georgette.
But the great spirit of fun and mischief was kept alive by the Alla Babbas. The Alla Babbas hail from Columbus and truly theirs is a "snappy bunch". - Now here, now

Mrs. Sarah McClanahan, the local chairman of the Committee on Arrangements, has done well her part as evidenced by the hundreds of comfortably housed delegates to the biennial session of the Order of the Eastern Star.
"How did you do it?" we asked. Mrs. McClanahan smiled. We were satisfied that her smila had something to do with her success. "It has been a pleasant task," she said. "The Pittsburgh people have been gracious and hospitable. Being a big city, and naturally crowded even in normal times, it has been a problem to find homes for such a large number of visitors. But our committee has worked zealously, and the citizens have responded admirably. It has been a sort of education, too," she continued. "We have learned more about the real, down-in-the heart local citizen than years of contact have taught us. He is even finer than he is pictured. Broad, sympathetic and venial, he is ever-willing

Excerpts From Biennial Address of Mrs. S. Joe Brown, Grand Matron I. C. O. E. S.
"In this new day our women everywhere should be urged to use of the their right where they are permitted and that when they vote to vote to place in office and women who ill safeguard the interest of our group as well as public in general in both our National Legislatures, and we may do away with our exit status wherein our Congress has failed for suggestions to pass the Dyer Acting Bill, because as the themselves declare there is demand for such legislation part of their constitution.
"While as I have already stated a great work is being done in our jurisdictions among each of our fraternity; yet I do that there are many situations that have not such a permanent and that the boy is all of today are the men and women of tomorrow and that upon resisting the grave responsibility of caring the lives of these young people they shall be the better position to complete the tasks we shall compelled to leave undone. I would argue that wherever it is possible to establish some form of justice in ment and that in those jurisdictions, there be organized a Justice Division of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in which Race History is taught and black ideals are taught to our young people, thus giving them for "leadership of the next generation."
"In view of the fact that the McCoy Ritual which is being used by most of the Grand Chapters of our people throughout the U.S. and Canada, is an exposed work, the sale of which is not confined to members of the Order, I recommend that this International Conference appoint a committee to compile a Ritual of our Order to be copyrighted and published under the supervision of this conference and to be sold only to those known to be members of our Order."

What become practice with mankind in this question: "How did Jesus do what did he say?" with reference to the passing of mortal to spirit life. On the testimony received we are addicted to judge. The question is irrelevant in that Jesus no beating on fact. The question marquetry and moment, we ask should be: "How did he live?" We ask should be: "How did he live?" We ask can understand and facts presented. Thus, by his fruits is he known, likewise the same obtains as to works even, they shall declare his status. Again, in connection with his above practice, we oftimes have heard this expression, "Was he saved?" Sons of God are we minded in this fact, that "Eternal Presence" on the Divine Plan have will that we shall all be saved? That our obtained, nothing is lost from

Once my hair was anything but long and softly soft as it is now, and my complexion was sallow, and there were often unsightly simplems on my face.
One day I heard of Exelento Quinine Pomade for the hair and purchased a jar. Almost immediately it stopped all dandruff, make 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 jar of Exelento Skin Beautification. It changed my sallow complexion to a clear, lovely skin, glowing with health. For pimples and other skin blemishes, it has no equal.
If I am as beautiful as people may, it is all due to Exelento preparations. Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Beautification may be obtained for only 25p, at most drug stores, or will be sent postpaid upon receipt of price by the

his Presence; With this assurance all sighing and sorrow should flee away and we should sing, "Praise God From Whom All / Blessings Flow." At transition we enter spirit world very much alive, (not dead) or lost. These facts in 'emselves not only abolishes and contradicts the so-called notions of lost, but confirms the saved affirmation. The difference we will observe is in condition we are and enterment, the absence of abode or where we register. According to our material manifestations in conduct and department, so to that realm in spirit life do we ascend and function until such a time as we ourselves shall elect to start our progression to higher and brighter climes. Yes, it is by our own desires and self-will, with works, we reach perfection. This acquired evidence which has stood the test of time and will be better understood with the coming generations is given to us through communion with the dead, and very much alive and in their respective spheres of progression and habitation. May we ever remember then, of record the words spoken by the Man of Galilee, "Jesus," thus: "Because I live ye shall live always."

Blocks of rubber are being used in automobile construction to eliminate sudden shocks, noise, and the necessity for lubrication at various points in the chassis.
No other single factor contributes so much to personal charm and attractiveness as beautiful hair. Seeby's Quinade will help to beauty and improve the hair. It will soften harsh, kinky hair, making it easier to put up in any style its length will permit.
Quinade is a medicated pomade, scientifically compounded by an experienced pharmacist. It contains ingredients which stimulate the scalp and roots of the hair, and which are calculated to encourage its growth.
To get best results from the use of Quinade, the scalp should be washed regularly with Quinasap, the ideal shampoo. Seeby's Quinasap is made with a vegetable oil base and produces a rich, creamy lather, so desirable in a shampoo. It leaves the hair soft and 'luffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp, unguided in other shampoos.
Insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. If unable to obtain them at your druggist's or dealer-mail us the price - Quinades $35c for 30c and 20c for them to you postpaid. Seeby Drug Co. Rawson street and Queen boulevard, Long Island City, N. Y.

Concentrated Efforts Cutting Down Heavy Mortgage On New Clark Memorial Church.
As the result of a united and whole-hearted effort on the part of the progressive people of Homestead, Pa., to give the community a beautiful and commodious church edifice, the Carnegie Steel Company decided to lend a hand and made an offer to the members of the Clark Memorial church to the effect that if the church people would contribute $5,000, that the Steel Company would give them additional $5,000, and that heavy mortgages which has been assumed by the congregation.
Sunday the people of Homestead, did their bit by pledging $5,000 and the Carnegie company, true to their pledge, made a like contribution, which probably constitutes the largest donation ever received by a colored church in this community.
The Clark Memorial church is one of the most magnificent church edifices owned by our group in the state, built at a cost of over $100,000. A mortgage of more than $40,000 was given a year ago, which has been reduced to less than $24,000. This drive which successfully fitted $10,000 was put over connection with the cebation of the first anniversary of the Homesteaders' entrance into the new building. The total collection of the present administration is about $00,000 in two and one-half years.
The event of the celebration closed Sunday with a mighty climax. Rev. Dr. J. H. Burks of Columbus, Ohio, preached the anniversary sermon—one of the most important a masterpiece and fourteen persons, and that they added their names to the membership of the church and several others were pledged for baptisms.

Father of Deceased Suffrage Leader Publicly Rebukes Ban Placed By Women's Party.
WESTPORT, N. Y., Aug. 21—A pageant "Forward Into Light," and a church service at Lewis, near here, both in memory of Miss Inez Milholland, leader in women's activities, Sunday brought to a close the annual Convention of the National Women's Party.

Milholland's father, John E. Milholland, at Meadowmoint. More than 1,000 women and girls, participated and more than 10,000 persons witnessed the eight episodes.
An unexpected feature was added to the service at the grave, when Mr. Milhooland at a time in the program when no speaking scheduled, protested the action of leaders of the National Women's Party in what he termed "drawing the color line" and refusing to permit Negro women who were his guests to pay tribute to his daughter,
Mr. Milholland said he had requested that Miss Lucy D. Slowe, Dean of Women at Howard University, Washington, and Mrs. A. W. Hunton of New York, representative of the National Association for Advancement of the Colored People, of the late Frederick Douglass out of appreciation for which service she was made a member of first board of trustees of that institution of which she is now chair of the Advisory Board.

Party leaders had told him, he said, that it "would mar the program to have them appear and pay tribute to her memory." This, he declared, was directly opposed to the ideas of his daughter, who, at the time of his suffrage parade in Washington some years ago, "demanded that colored people be allowed to take part in it."

and Miss Comstock in almost the same condition.
They were still in the midst of their recital which had been freely interspersed with spasms of keeping as they recalled frightful portions of their experiences. They talked alternately with the same time and sometimes with the bad dozen chattering at once, but all been understood when Miss Gregory and the others who had made the trip burst in on them.
"Oh, my girls!" she exploded as she gathered them both weepingly in her arms. "I'm so relieved—so relieved." With this she kissed them both in her excess of emotion as she held them. "I'm so glad you reached home. I was afraid you had been caught in that mob down street and either hurt or killed. We just missed being caught in it ourselves and saw ambulances rushing wounded to hospitals and stations. Wasn't it awful? Such fighting I never saw. There was no regard for women and children or anything else. I'm so glad you escaped and were not in it." "Oh, but they were," one of the girls answered. "They had the thrillingest experience imaginable. Even to being rescued by a handsome hero. I envy them." At this everybody burst into laughter, thus banishing another approaching storm of weeping. "They were just telling us about it when you returned." The speaker continued:
"What?" exclaimed Miss Gregory, as she held each girl off at arm's length and inspected them, fear in her heart again. "Were you hurt?" Were you hurt? "she asked frantically anxious. "Oh, why did I tell you?" Think what might have happened? "Oh, but we're all right now." Lida volunteered. "—A little shaken, but that's all."

At this Miss Gregory became authoritative again. "Get right to your rooms, Girls," she commanded to those who had been grouped about Lida and Miss Comstock. "Right to your rooms and prepare for dinner." As she spoke she ushered the two girls into her study to question them concerning their experiences. Both young women assured her they were whole of bones and had now recovered from their nervousness. As she heard this Miss Gregory exclaimed: "I shall never allow two of my girls to travel alone again."
CHAPTER IV
Truman Bennet was so weakened from loss of blood and dizziness due to the last blow he had received before he rushed the girls to safety that they feared he would faint while they were in the cab with him. It was only exercise of the gill will within him that he held control of himself till the girls had left him. Had he not been afraid of distressing them with his wounds he would not have allowed them to quit the carriage till safely at their homes. As it was when they turned from him, as he watched them down the street, he smiled: weakly for an instant, then the world blackened and his eyes became sightless while his body slumped to the street, his knees crumpling under him.
He knew not how long he had remained unconscious. It seemed eternities, suddenly he opened his eyes again and reached his hands to his head as if to ease the pain just above his ear. He felt the soft blood-matted sticky wound and remembered again. He struggled to his feet, but slumped again, this time barely being conscious of the face of the cab driver looking back at him.
When he regained consciousness again he was on the operating table in the relief station, to which he had been rushed by the cab driver and was being bandaged as a sickly doctor, who had heard the cab driver's story, was saying: "Young man, you came very near to being bandaged here at this time. You'd better thank your lucky stars you have been getting your football training at the University. Almost any other man would have been dead.
I suppose the picture of that pretty face you rescued kept you up—Now the romance begins."
Truman continued to follow the movements of the physician, but only half, consciously, not yet realizing that it was Dr. Bayard Tansey, physical-director of the University, who was speaking.
Dr. Tansey continued to talk smilingly. "You, I'm talking to. Look at me with those brown eyes. I suppose you only see the face of a pretty girl now. All men are like that. Go daffy for a pretty face, then wake up after they married. You'll do the same as the rest, if I get you well. Guess I'll let you die. No, on second thought, if you die you won't know what I know about women and every man ought to know at least as much. Besides they need you on the football squad yet awhile." He was just about to be puzzled at the still silent gazing eyes and to wonder if there was not a blood clot on the brain which paralyzed his patient's senses when a film which seemed to envelop Truman's head-faded away and intelligence came.
Dr. Tansey noted the change. "Ah, I thought I'd bring you to after awhile. You had a narrow squawk, boy. Here taste this." He held a medicine dropper to the patient's lips. The pungent fluid cleared away all the mental clouds and Truman tried to rise.
"Steady, now. Not so fast." Dr. Tansey stepped to the table and gently pressed Bennet back to his reclining position as he spoke. "You mustn't do that," he continued. "You'll spoil all my plans for you."
Bennet again essayed to rise, the effect of the drops administered to him no longer being felt on his brain. With the attempt, however, felt a stinging pain in his head, lifted his hand to gaze it and slowly pulled it away as he touched the huge bandages in which his head was swathed.
"What's the matter, Doctor?" he asked.
"Nothing, only I've just saved St. Peter the disagreeable task of kicking a perfectly good athlete out of heaven and preserved real promising football material from a 'burning'.
"Yes, I know all that rot, but what am I doing here? and where's the girl—where's the mob—who hit me with that brick?
"Ah," exclaimed the doctor, "I know you're better now. "You're a poor heifer, but if you did a good job, pressing two pretty girls out of a pretty mess.
"Two girls!-Two girls!-Why, I only saw one." Bennet answered his brain now flashing back pictures of the mob and the struggle.
"All the same—two or one—what does it matter?" the doctor replied shaking his head in a whimsical manner. "You're a lost child now Bennett. You saw beauty in distress, looked into her soulful eyes—and yielded to Circe's power—plunged in to a fight that was none of your affair—got your head cracked—and you'll be looney for the remainder of your life. All for a girl—a skirt woman with large blue eyes. "Oh, don't deny it." he continued as Bennett raised a hand to protest and defend the girl, though still taken from the battle, the loss of blood and the operation. "—I got it all from your ravings while under the anaesthetic and I was operating, and from your cabby. Boy! your constitution's iron, I guess. You raved like a mad one over the girl." "By jove. Doctor Tansey, she was worth all the risk. You ought have seen her. A Hebe. A Juno. A Minerva. A a—a-goddess. That's it, Doctor, a goddess." Bennett's eyes

sparkled as he pictured the girl in his mind.
Dr. Tansey, the idol of the football team, in fact, of all the athletes at the University, burst into loud laughter at this. Beneath his exterior of sarcasm and railway all those who came in contact with him at the emergency hospital knew he was a man of sympathy for youth, particularly youth suffering from injury. He adopted this attitude toward those young men who came to him from the football, baseball, track field or the gymnasium, on the hill with their injuries in order to test their sincerity, their vitality and their snunk.
At the outburst of Bennet's he was pleased for he knew that the vitality of this young swarthy giant of manhood had not been sapped to danger point and that recovery would be rapid. Even his chin hidden by an imperial cut of hirsute adornment seemed to reflect the joy he felt at the discovery that Bennet was not in danger any longer. He had formed a special liking for this black-haired foreign looking American and there was more than ordinary joy in his laughter when he exploded after Bennet finished speaking of the girl. He raised his hands above his head in token of Shrender, as he exclaimed:
"Gone, gone, gone! Completely gone! Goodbye, Bennet. That blow on the head set you off completely. It knocked the man out of you and turned you into a fool lover. I suppose you'll be off your game for the remainder of the season and you'll be mooning up and down the street in front of Miss Gregory's school from now—"
Bennet almost set up from the chair on which he was still reclining at the words.
"That's where she's from? That's where she's from?" he asked. Dr. Tansey gave no answer. "I know it! I know it!!" "—Doctor take me to a ward—Please take me to a ward. How long shall I be here? That's it. That's it!"
Dr. Tansey was replacing his scalpels in their case after carefully cleansing them. He was so deliberate in his movements as to be almost tantalizing. As he placed the last one in its place and folded the case he looked at Bennet and there was approval in his eyes. The blood was flushing the latter's face again. Dr. Tansey walked over to the chair, took a wrist in his hand and counted the pulse.
"You'll—never—he" he was tormentingly deliberate, "cured." He looked at Bennet to see the effect of the words and when he saw the disappointed look in the boy's eyes, he added, "With that he burst into laughter again and pressed the hand he held in warm friendship.
Bonnet gave the hand a returning grip, then a twinkle came into his eyes and he said "Bring her on and I'll marry her now."

Minister's Son Is Accused In Assault Case
NEW YORK, Aug. 21—A minister's son and four other young men were arraigned in Yonkers last week, charged with attacking a young woman or Sauners Dock, after having beaten her male escort into insensibility. Three of the five escaped in a fusillade of bullets, but were later apprehended.
Two of the youths, Charlton Berkeley, 18, and Edward Crawford, 16, were caught and told the names of their companions, who were arrested later. They described themselves as Graydon Jones, 16, son of a minister, of 96 Woodworth avenue; Reginald Ryer, 18, and John Adams, 20. Berkeley and Crawford signed affidavits, according to police, in which they charged that Jones, the minister's son, and Adams, attacked the young woman.

Two comedians, Eddie Lemons and Amon Davis, late of "How Come" and "Take It Easy" fame, keep the spectators in a continuous roar of laughter from the opening curtain to the grand finale, which eloses the show in a burst of speed and action. The show is in two scenes and seven acts, and to say that it is among the best productions appearing here is putting it mildly. It appears that Messrs. Miller and Slater, the producers and owners of the show, have put their very best effort making it "big-time" vehicle, and have we saved a markable extent, in the opinion of the writer. While some of the rough spots will have, to be ironed out—this, of course, coming with added experience and the appearance of new faces, which are scheduled to appear before the present engagement is finished—the show, as a whole, possesses real merit.
Miss Whitby Leading Lady
Miss Whitby, the leading lady, portrays her part well and comes in for well merited applause, but the singing of pretty Emma Hawkins, the dainty soubrette, and the dancing of Josephine Bates and Bessie Wrightstone, are really the features of the girls and chorus, consisting of these girls and the girls, Edith Randolph, Olive Lopez, Parker, Willie-May Wills and others. The men in the corr any, who form a pleasing and effectively dancing background for the girls are Amon Davis, Eddie Lemons, Homer Hubbard, Burch Williams, James Jackson and Luther Wills. Burch Williams and James Jackson have been affectionately termed the "dancing fools" by well-pleased patrons.
The show will continue for the rest of the week, midnight shows being scheduled for Friday night and Monday morning at 12:15 a.m.

'RecordBreakers At Gayety Is Real Burlesque Hit
Following its policy of a new show each week and each show a standard type of Columbia Burlesque, the Gaynes theatre will next offer Jack Reid's "Record Breakers" as worthy of attention and patronage. Mr. Reid, the "Information Rid" heads his shawn in person and will be supported by a fine array of talent.
This star of Columbia burglaries and his annu. attraction is always an amusement feature worth while noting. This year Mr. Reid is said to be equipped with even a more pretentious and attractive vehicle than in past years. The production is in two big acts and des magnificent scenes from the studio of Clirkor and Robbins of New York City, while the many changes of gorgeous and attractive costumes have been designed by Madam Katz of the an. city. There are eight unapallent attractions girls have been especially trained at the Columbia Burglues Instruction School, and who have been selected not only for youth and beauty, but for talent and sprightliness as well.
As to cast Mr. Reid has not depended solely upon his own effectual efforts as entertainer, but has surrounded himself by a potable aggregation of singers, dancers, comedians, acrobats and so forth-Kitty Warren, one of bupleasque's most popular soubrettes, ranks next in importance to Mr. Reid, followed closely by Helen Kay Booth as prima donna and Billy Cumby, one of the funniest Negro comedians on the present day stage. Sid Rogers, the eccentric comedian, is also a popular favorite as is Joe Meline, pantomime comedian; Joe Lang, a juvenile with a phenomenal voice; Halena Myles, an ingenuine soubrette, and Rose Sharon, a very clever singer of "Blues Songs."
But not content with this regular cast, Mr. Reid has added three special attractions, the first being the La Palomas, an acrobatic act that furnishes a whirlwind of laughs and comedy together with a thrill or two at their difficult feats; Johana Frank's living models, in one of the most beautiful and artistic acts ever seen in burlesque entitled, "The Sculptor's Dream," the third added feature is Ray's Comedy Circus, which presents posh dogs, monkeys and mules. This act has been carried to success with all great circuses-in this country and Europe, and has been a headline act on the big time vaudeville. It is one of the most entertaining and amusing of its kind ever produced on any stage.
Pastor Sues Newspaper on Libel Charge
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 21—The Kansas City Call, through C. A. Franklin, owner and publisher, is made defendant in a suit for $25,000 damages, brought by the Rev. J. B. Johnson, formerly located at Butler, Mo.
The Rev. Johnson charges he was libelled by The Call in an article published in its issue of July 4, and estimates his pride and standing were damaged to the extent of $25,000.
“Scurrilous and Libellous” The petition charges that The Call is “operated in the interest of the public and especially the colored people of Kansas City,” elsewhere throughout the United States with a circulation of about 100,000 weekly . . . that on the fourth day of July, 1924, the defendant published in its columns a scurrilous and libellous article of and concerning the plaintiff . . .

Entrance to Sahara Temple Dance Pavilion is through the main entrance to Bailey's Hotel, straight through to the rear. Here, a well-supported pavilion is erected in the center, tables for lunches and refreshments are placed along the outer limits of four sides and a water-proof covering and siding protects patrons from the scorching sun rays as well as torrential rainstorms.
Music and entertainment is furnished by an Eastern aggregation ably supported by versatile talent from the Arab Patrol, who have received many compliments concerning the enterprise in its entirety. The largest Palvillion will be in charge of an aggregation of Elks and it seems that a friendly wager has been made as to which organization will draw the largest crowd. However, the Arab Patrol is packing them in, serving them well, and sending them away, satisfied that at least one group of Pittsburghers can make the difference. But watch the Elks next week.

Damage to the extent of $250 was done to the premises beside the destroying of a set of hand-painted china, belonging to Mrs. Graves, which was thrown from plate rails around the dining room.
Not Frightened
"Are you going to move out?" a reporter asked Mr. Graves.
"Hell, no," he replied. "You know it will take, more than a little tap like that to frighten me away when I went to bed and woke up to the same music for eighteen months overseas."
Mr. Graves served in France with the Ninety-second division. He has been living in the house two weeks. White people had lived in the house until last March and since that time it has remained vacant. All the neighbors are colored.
The bombing of the Graves home recalls a similar bombing in June of the newly purchased home of Lemuel Williams, also an overseas veteran, at 2617. E. Twenty-fifth street.

All such people can stop worrying and start to smile right now for McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Tablets, which any druggist will tell you all about, is putting flesh on hosts of skinny folks every day.

Oil is full of flesh producing vitamins, but many people can't take it because of its horrible smell and fishy taste, and because it often upsets the stomach:
McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Tablets are as easy to take as candy, and if any thin person don't gain at least 5 pounds in 30 days your druggist will give you your money back—and only 60 cents a box. Ask any live pharmacist anywhere.

His work in the ring comes from 3 to 4, shadow boxing, rope jumping, five cr six rounds with his two sparring partners, and gymnastic exercises afterward on the mat. At 5:30 p. m., he eats his big meal, lamb or pork with plenty of vegetables and whole wheat bread.
We asked him about this cream cheese dish. It's the best training stuff in the world, he told me that from my school in New Orleans. She sends me the cheese mold and I make my own. I get the best cream from Mr. Jones; let it stand until it gets thick, then pour it in the perforated mold and let it sit in the cheese. Let me show y." and Harry got up to get the mold.
At this point his wife came in and nothing would do but she she-should prepare a dish of it to prove its merits. But she made a mistake by saying so, for in their good natured hospitality we almost had to fight Wills and the whole camp to keep from eating three of four more platefuls. There is an air of good natured jollity in that we that we missed in the Argentine outfit. When "Battling" Owens' she insisted on the "Battling"—gave his weight as two hundred and forty, Wills and Clark laughed him down. "Two hundred and sixty, you mean they insisted on t-king the barrel-chested ingestion to the scales, though he didn't want to go.

Wins Tennis Tournament
PETERSBURG, Vn., Aug. 21 — Displaying an unbeatable brand of tennis in, combining consumate skill in execution of strokes and splendid judgment, J. W. Anderson, of Lawrenceville, captured the tennis championship at A. H. Turner, of Lawrenceville, coped the men's doubles title; Mrs. Gertrude Preston, of Roanoke, won the ladies' singles championship, and Mrs. Preston and Dr. J. L. McGriff captured the mixed doubles of the Virginia Tennis Association in the sixteenth annual tournament of the National Normal- and Industrial Institute at Petersburg.
One of the features of the tournament, which was perhaps the most successful ever held, was the awarding of a beautiful silver loving cup, given by Dr. E. D. Downing, of the Folk Tennis association, of J. B Robinson, John J. Mainor, Jr.; J. E. Watkins, and P. Bernord Young, Jr., for "excellent sportsmanship, fine effort, willingness and general demeanor," in their first appearance at the state meet against such strong opposition as the major being played against the national doubles champions—Drs. McGriff and Downing.

Otto Rettig was on the mound for the Brooks and, although nicked for twelve hits, managed to keep them well scattered.

Lincoln Gts. Take 2 From Cuban Stars
Hitting of Williams, Who Connects For Two Home Runs, Feature of Contests
NEW YORK, August 21—The Lincoln Giants took both games of their final series with the Cuban Stars here Sunday. Oscal opposed Dave Brown in the first contest and pitched a good game, but a costly error by Dihigo, playing shortstop for Chacon, who s ill with stomach trouble, in a local hospital, caused two runs to be scored. The final score of this game was 5-1 and to the last inning it looked as though Brown would again shut out the hard hitting Cubans. However, in this frame an error by Williams caused Dihigo to get a base in the base. For the Farmers' side, Cardenas followed with another single, which saved his team from being shut out.

NEW YORK, Aug. 21 — Sam Langford pulled down a $499 purse here last Friday night at the Lafayette Theatre; and he did not have to take a jolt in the tummy or a smash on the law to earn the money
Old Sam just ambled across the stage and ambled back again. Then he acted as referee for the spirited three-round exhibition between Joe Jennette and one of Joe's bops. He was also helpful as a school girl and the famous old hero of the prize ring was nearly frightened to death when Mr. Bernard, master of ceremonies, introduced "Uncrowned King" of the prize ring.
The show netted about $873.40, from which the war tax and expenses left a balance of $436. This sum will be added to by several concessions, and the cost it is hoped that the sum will reach the $500 mark on final tabulations. The program was started at 8:45 and lasted up until near 2 o'clock in the morning. We were the results of Mrs. Al Dow's energetic work through her vaudeville booking agency.

Although the Elks managed to grab off ten hits, the same as the St. Louis lads, they were unable to use them to good effect. Elks handcuffed and handed the video team hands over the ferings of Dillon for four hits, Miller smacking out a pair of homers.

COAST-TO-COAST WALKER WEARS OUT 8 PAIRS OF SHOES; ON ROAD 115 DAYS
NEW YORK, N. X., Aug. 21.—With a broad smile on his face and with eyes sparkling with satisfaction at having accomplished successfully his trying adventure, James H. Turner, aged 37, World War veteran of Jacksonville, Fla., walked briskly into the New York office of The Pittsburgh Courier on Seventh avenue, after trudging over three thousand miles across the broad expanse of these United States, wearing out: eight pairs of heavy army shoes, bearing a 50-pound pack and consuming 115 days en voyage.
Turner, by making the coast to coast trip on foot, established a precedence in the record of cross-country walkers, by covering the entire distance from San Francisco to New York according to the stipulations of a bet with a white Southerner, who declared that he could outwalk Turner, the World War hero of three battles, Argonne, Swazone and St. Michel. The 21 months spent, in France had hardened him to privations and nine months' actual fighting at the front has endowed this veteran with a determined, never-say-die spirit.
The amount of the bet was $3,000, and Turner, by dint of his aggressive trudging ahead, far outdistanced his white rival and will be awarded the well-earned prize.
Visits Courier at Pittsburgh
Mr. Turner stopped at the Pitts-
burgh Courier office on Fourth avenue when he hit the Smoky City on his record-making walk, tarried long enough for a special photographer to snap him, related several interesting events which occurred during his journey, and was on his way toward his destination.
Several years ago Turner established a record in touring the world on a bicycle.

Col. Giles B. Jackson Dies at Home
RICHMOND, Va., Aug. 21—Col. Giles B. Jackson, prominent lawyer, the first Tichmond Negro to be admitted to the bar in Virginia, and a leader in the affairs of his race, died this morning at 4 o'clock at his residence, 818 North Fourth street. He was about 70 years old.
Born in Goochland county, he came to Richmond as a boy to work for the Stewart family at Brook Hill. Later he was employed by the Beveridge law firm here for work about the office, and his white employers encouraged him to study law.
After many difficulties, he was admitted to the bar of Virginia—the first Negro ever to be admitted—and qualified to practice in all Richmond courts.
During his career as a lawyer, he was very active in aiding Negro business enterprises. He wrote the first Negro bank, the first Negro Insurance company and the first society in the state. His early efforts to encourage business enterprise among his racial kinsmen gave him national prominence.
Mr. Jackson was the leading promoter of the Negro department of the Jamestown exposition in 1907, having been instrumental in securing a $100,000 appropriation from congress for the purpose. At this period he published a colored newspaper called "The Negro Criterion," which further stimulated enterprise among the members of his race. He was the director of the Negro exposition. Due to his activity in this connection, Booker T. Washington, famous Negro leader, secured his co-operation in organizing the Southern Negro Business League.

Lynching Evil Is Scored By Pres. Coolidge
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 21
—In his formal acceptance to the nomination for re-election as President of the United States, President Calvin Coolidge spoke out boldly against lynching and called it a national shame. He, commended the Negro for the progress he had made, and expressed the hope that a law would end lynching. "As a matter of plain expediency," said th. President, "the white man can be protected unless the black man is protected, and as a plain matter of right, law and justice is justice for everybody." The complete portion of the text referring to colored people is as follows:
"Under our institutions success is the rule and failure is the exception. We have no better example of this plan than the enormous progress which is being made by the Negro race. To some of its individuals it may seem slow, toilome, and unsatisfactory, but viewed as a whole it has been a demonstration of their patriotism and their worth. They are doing a great work in the land and are entitled to the protection of the Constitution and the law. It is a satisfaction to observe that the crime o. lynching, of which they have been so often the victims, has been greatly diminished, and I trust that any further continuation of this national shame may be prevented by law. As a plain matter of expedition the white man can not be protected unless the black man is protected, and as a plain matter of right law is law and justice is justice for everybody."
Phil Brown's Wife Works With G.O.P.
CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 21 — When the Illinois Central Flyer pulled in to Chicago last Monday it brought in Mrs. Dolly R. Brown, of Hopkinsville, Ky, widow of the late Phil H. Brown, journalist, government official, and Assistant Director of Publicity during the Taft, Hughes and Harding campaigns. The little widow, had come in response to a request of the Republican National Committee for intensive work in the Coolidge campaign. This year, the familiar figure of Phil Brown will be missing, but the Phil Brown "way" will not be altogether gone.
Helped Full For Years
Murray of the product of Phil's political pen and his expert work in campaign of the past years was the work of Dolly R. Brown, his faithful wife. She was the chief censor of Phil's "stuff" and through the trying days of three presidential campaigns, Mrs. Brown helped out in more ways than one. The two were pals, indeed. Thus she brings to the committee a wealth of knowledge and experience. Singularly, Mrs. Brown's appointment was made by another widow, Mrs. Alvin T. Hert, vice chairman of the Republican National Committee, and wife of the late Alvin T. Hert, formerly National Committeeman from Kentucky, who died suddenly at the New Willard Hotel, Washington, D.C., some time after President Harding took office.

Flivvers and Bob Hair. Add Zest To Modern Georgia Camp Meeting
Fried Chicken Good As Ever, Religion Is As Sincere and Spooning Is As Wholehearted, Though.
ATLANTA, Aug. 21—The old-fashioned Georgia camp meeting isn't what it used to be.
The meeting now in progress at Mount Gilead, near Ben Hill, Ga., one of the oldest and most famous camp meeting grounds in the state, bears witness as to how completely that early manifestation of religious life has been modernized.
Shouting by converts, for instance, has wholly passed out of style.
Everybody drives up in a flivver instead of an ox-cart or mule-drawn buggy.
Hell-fire and damnation sermons have been supplanted by more reasoned discourses.
Bobbed hair prevails among the girls.
In fact, things generally have changed except for three fundamental particulars:
The fried chicken is as good as ever, the religion is as sincere and the spooning is as whole-hearted.
Mount Gilead was established 90 years ago by the Methodists and has been the scene of many famous gatherings since then. In the old days, people drove to the meeting ground from all parts of the state n' some came afoot.
Today the numbers have increased instead of diminished, but 'there isn't a hitching rack on the grounds.' Farmers, business men and preachers all drive up in automobiles and park instead of hitch, and styles of bobbed hair are exhibited by fappers from Atlanta, Macon and Au-
is
gusta, and short skirts are much in evidence.
Four services a day are held, with preaching at each—one in the morning, two in the afternoon and one at night. Conversions are frequent, but the converts take their salvation quietly, without shouting.
The sermons are preached in a long, open shed called the "arbor," just outside the city. The "tents" for those who wish to live on the camp ground during the meeting are wooden shacks, unpainted and weather-beaten, with the shingles curling from age. When mule-drawn vehicles made lo-

High Class Entertainment, Roadhouse Setting and Ideal Location, Pleasure Resort Increasing in Popularity.
By reason of an ideal roadhouse setting, pleasing entertainers and easy jazz music, the Lenwood Inn at Pasture and Townsend streets, has become the rendezvous seekers of refined amusements
restraints.
Bardly a night passes that does
witness the management's turn-
away numerous groups of loyal
members for lack of table and dance
fairness, notwithstanding
the fact that over 200 people can be
informally seated, with almost 'a
million on the dance floor.
This unprecedented cabaret par-
pare is accounted for in many
ways. First, the location is ideal—
from the hurry and bustle of
many business streets and yet
with easy reach of street cars in
in directions; second, the attrac-
tions, while not sensational are up.

Keep Apart, Talk, Don't Whisper, Is Dance King's Edict
NEW YORK, Aug. 21—"Keep your distance—three inches—and don't whisper." for dancers was adopted today by the International Association of Masters of Dancing. The proper position for triping is in public or in-public for partners to stay apart so that when they converge they must raise their voices above their partner," said a resolution adopted.
"The left arm of the leader and the right arm of his partner should be placed in the hand of the former's right hand should be placed in the small, of his partner's back, ever so lightly—but firmly."

The management has repeatedly given expressions of gratitude for this support and promises in return a more varied program and feature entertainers when possible to secure them.
Thursday evening will continue to be a feature evening and this week the management indulges in a "Novel Night," giving away a large-size French doll, a set of China and a cash prize to patrons who are fortunate enough to receive lucky numbers.

Former Roadhouse Owner Kills Former Sweetheart And Then Takes Own Life
"We Will Die Together"
Murderer Is Alleged to
Have Told "Friend"
Whom He Also Tried to
Kill.
Unrequited love was named as the cause of another tragedy enacted Wednesday, when George "Mickey" Thmas, 86, 2634 Michigan avenue, former roadhouse owner in Indiana Harbor, and prominent, sportsman, went to the home of his former sonheart, Mrs. Edna Etter, 29, and shot her to death in the first apartment at 4227 Calumet avenue, where she resided with Mrs. Joyce Robinson, who is living apart from her husband.
After sending a bullet into the heart of Mrs. Etter, killing her instantly, the jilted lover fired several shots at Mrs. Robinson and then turned the gun on himself and sent two bullets into his chest, one of them penetrating the left lung. Mrs. Robinson saved her life by crouching behind a trunk in room 101 Thomas, with two guns, of them automatic, sent bullet after bullet toward her. She was not struck, however.
Slips From House
Following the slaying of Mrs. Etter and the shooting of himself, Thomas left the house and made his way to 42d street and Grand boulevard, where he sought assistance of a passbyer to take him to the home of his brother, Jimmie Thomas, 3614 Michigan avenue. He sold the cab chauffeur he used to take him, he called a policeman, who took Thomas to Wilson hospital, 3831 Vernon avenue, where he lies in a critical condition.
Mrs. Robinson, who escaped Thomas' volley of bullets, told Sergeants Ahern, Sheehy and Curtin of the Third district, who rushed to the scene of the tragedy, that Thomas came to the apartment at noon Wednesday and asked for Mrs. Etter. He was no more than a few minutes was told he went away. About an hour and a half later she answered the phone and a woman whose name was given as "Ivey" asked to speak to Mrs. Etter. Mrs. Etter, who had been home all the time, was called to the phone. Mrs. Robinson said that from the nature of the conversation she knew then that Mrs. Etter was talking to Thomas. "We Will Die Together"
Mrs. Etter retired to her room after the phone conversation and a few minutes later she screamed. Mrs. Robinson ran to her door and saw Thomas holding Mrs. Etter with his left hand, and with the gun in

Mrs. Robinson left the two on the floor and went to the phone to call the police. When they arrived Thomas had slipped from the house.
Further investigation revealed that Mrs. Etter and Thomas had been sweethearts; that she broke with him some time ago, and upon her refusal to make up with him he went to California in an effort to forget. This proved futile, however, and he returned to Chicago and sought help. "The way he says to have trailed her in an endeavor to learn her address. When he discovered that she was living at 4227 Calumet avenue he made attempts to see her there. Wednesday's tragedy was the climax of his last attempt.

Her body was removed to McGavock's morgue, where an inquest was held Thursday and continued indefinitely.
Bathers Are Not Immoral, Says Woman
WASHINGTON, D.C., Aug. 21—Denying charges of immorality or indecency in connection with night swimming at the pool at the Howard playground, Mrs. Susie Root Rhodes, superisor of municipal playgrounds, said that the ministers, physicians, lawyers and other leaders in welfare work, had been misinformation. The charges were made by a group of Baptist ministers, headed by the Rev. J. Milton Waldron. The pool will be opened or closed at night, as the majority of responsible residents of the district and immediate neighborhood desire, Mrs. Rhodes said. It was opened only at the solicitation of several ministers and professional men. Close watch, she further declared, had not revealed any immorality, indecency or "moonlight spooning."

"Shoot To Kill" Are Orders In Racial Clash
TRENTON, N. J., Aug. 21—"Shoot to kill." This brief, drastic order, issued by Police Commissioner George B. LaBarre to members of the force indicates the serious character of the race situation that has arisen at New Jersey's capital. For the last month a series of incidents have occurred to aggravate the swelling antagonisms. Only the co-operation of the better elements of both races has prevented outbreaks which might have resulted in loss of life and bloodshed. The Ku Klux Klan, acute housing conditions, bootlegging, publication of sensational articles in the papers and rivalry in steel mills between migrants and white foreign born labor has materially contributed to disrupt the pleasant relations which both races so long shared.
Pastor Ordered Out
The Gallilee Baptist Church is putting up a new building in East Trenton. On Saturday, August 9, a plenic was given on the ground, and the same day, Rex Crosby Willis received a telephone message to pack his trunk and leave Trenton within ten days. He reported the incident to the police, and said he would not leave.
In commenting on the situation Dr. Jonathan C. Gibbs, president of the Trenton branch of the N. A. A. C. P., considers the Police Commissioner's "shoot to kill" order more or less in the nature of an insult to the better citizens of the community.
"If carried out by the police, some of whom might take it as license to intimidate and brutalize Negroes, serious trouble would inevitably result," he predicts.

Emmett J. Scott Principal Speaker At Annual Convention In Atlantic City.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. Aug 14. "To successfully compete with other races in Americas, the Negro must learn that whenever he seeks to engage in a particular profession or discipline he must fit himself so thoroughly that he shall win upon the test of superior merit," said Dr. Emmet J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, Washington, D.C., in speaking before the National Association of Negro Tallors and Dressmakers at the opening session of its annual convention being held in Atlantic City, August 4, 5, 6, 1924. Dr. Scott was introduced to the delegates and visiting friends of the association by M. K. Tyson, executive secretary. His address followed that of the mayor of Atlantic City, who extended to those attending the sessions a cordial welcome to the city.
"As tailors and dressmakers," Dr. Scott said, "it is your duty to make of yourselves superior workmen in every way. If it requires that you must be subjected to higher standards of efficiency, I would ask that you meet these standards. I need not say that if the men and women of this wonderful organization meet the highest standards of their trade, they can not be denied; attention to which they will be entitled. There are less likely to show that prejudice to the economic world overcomes by merit. We all know that the Negro laborer, the Negro artisan, physician, lawyer, dentist, tailor and those trained in other skillful trades are in many cases proscribed because of race and color, but we also know that the prescription of which we complain is just as often directed against those who lack adequate training for the work in which they seek to engage."
Continuing, Dr. Scott said: "In America, the Negro is face to face with his greatest opportunity. In no part of the world is there a country so full of opportunity in every field of endeavor as is America. It is the economic and humanitarian reservoir of the world. The greatest manufacturing concerns of the world are here. America's building programs far surpass those of any other country. Our educational facilities are considered the equal of any country, and our resources in natural wear are unequaled by any of other countries of the world. Twelve million colored people are here in America living under our modern civilization. These twelve million must be clothed, sheltered, administered to when life and properly laid away when dead. There is not a phase of business endeavor engaged in by any people which does not find an applicable demand within our race. Within this group alone, you tailors and dressmakers will find a constant demand for the product of your labs. Within this group, alone, there will be found opportunities in every walk of life, from the lowly occupation of bootblack to the headship of banks, insurance companies and educational institutions, all of which are created by the normal requirements of this progressive people. However, you are not limited to this field—by your superior skill in your chosen field of endeavor your horizon of opportunity extends to every part of our great country."

how the President stands on the Klan. Well, if the President
will just keep my “door of hope open”, I don’t care a tinker’s
dam what he thinks-of the Klan. But if the President said he
hated the Klan, some Negro would rise and Ask him to state
his views on Small Pox. So what's the use?
We are all awaiting the announcement of the names of the
Negroes who will take some leading part in the Republican cam-
paign. The delay in the announcement is a blessing. Just as
soon as the names are released, the bricks will fly straight for
the heads of the fortunate ones. The bricks will be hurled by
those. who are not named. It's hell if you are named, and it’s
hell if you are not.
- The latest:swan song of Garvey is that he admits his failure
to enter Liberia as per advertisement. He now charges that
Negroes fight against each other. We admit they fight each
other. That is why we suggest that Garvey go back to the Is-
lands where no one will fight him. He is too nice and sweet
a thing tobe fought,—by American Negroes.

difference between a prescription from a cure-all

‘There is’no doubting which of the two speeches is
more acceptable to voters. The character and person-

position is centering its principal attack. If the slogan
of the Democrats is to be “Honesty,” then the voters
have it already, And it is not likely that-they will
