At the time of going to press, indications were that Grand Master E. H. Morris would be reelected to serve his thirteenth term as the head of the United Order of Old Fellows. The present efficient staff of officers, in its entirety, will probably be reelected.
Staging a splendid exhibition of well-executed military maneuvers and making an impressive appearance at the big annual drill competition between the Patrishie divisions of the United Order of Old Fellows, held at Forbes Field or Thursday, the Alexandria, Va. Lodge 64, Patrishies, led by Capt. Smith, definitely established their ought to be considered the Order's best drilled men and they were officially awarded the

Baltimore Lodge No. 12, led by Capit. Haggar, contributed much to make the Ferguson Field spectacle a more-the-forgotten, and they were awarded the second price of $200 for this show.
The third honors for one of the greatest drills ever held in Pittsburgh was awarded to Washington D. C. Lodge No. 12, led by Capit. Haggar. Their price was $200.

BIGSIDE ROYAL THIRD ACRES JERSEY CITY, N.J. Sept. 11 Harry Wills decisively defeated Luis Angel Firpo here tonight and now stands as the logical contender, in fact the only contender, for the crown now adorning the raven locks of William Harrison Dempsey, king of the heavies. Although he did not put the South American subpoena dodger away he rendered valueless the far-famed right hand punch of Firpo and had him reeling and clinching during the closing rounds of the fight.

Enraged because her husband had been paying attentions to a younger woman Mrs Sorena Mitchell of 3433 Butler street, set out to reek vengeance upon the alleged home wrecker. Lily Robinson of 6808 Butler street. Armed with a revolver and a large blacksnake whip, the frate wife want to the Robinson girl's address to administer summary punishment. In her freezed eagerness to reach the "disurbing angle" in her marital happiness, Mrs. Mitchell ripped part of a screen door from the Robinson home and battered the door with the butt end of the gun. Then the gun battle, which lasted for ten minutes, began. Who fired the first shot is not known, but in a few seconds Butler street resounded to the spiteful cracks of two automatis, the Robinson woman firing from a window of her home and Mrs. Mitchell shooting under the steps. The Robinson woman, police say, ran out of revolver curticles, but soon returned with the shotgun and blazed away.
Pedestrians ran to cover as a squad of police from the Forty-third street station arrived in automobiles in response to calls from frightened nearby residents. Neither was injured. The husband of the enraged wife, according to the police, was not at the place when the trouble occurred.

The Argentine mauler straightened up in time to meet Wills' left which clipped him on the jaw. He reeled and collapsed on all fours for a count of five. They clinched as the crowd yelled for a "K.

Firpo continued his hugging antics and Wills pushed him about the ring, trying to shake him off. Firpo tapped Wills in the face with his left and was paid with a jarring punch to his mid-rib. Firpo rushed with arms swinging blindly but Harry stepped inside and beat him about the body. Wills hooked a left to head and right to stomach. Firpo's right grazed Wills' head. Wills had the canto.

JBRSEY CITY, Sept. 11—
How can a man fight one who
persists in holding and clubbing
with his right hand. In every
round Wills violated’all rules of
holding and hitting. It was im-
possible for me to show my
ability under these conditions,
Tam sure every atudent of the
game who saw the fight will
agree with me. In a fair stand-
up fight I am sure I would win,
That blow that felled me was
struck’ while coming out of =
clinch. Another thing to be re-~
membered was that I was £0 an-
noyed by so many lawsuits that
it seriously intelfered with my
training.

for his end of the gate, leaving the
remainder for Tex Rickard’ and
company. The cost of staging the
bout was enormous, but Rickard
made enough to keep the wolf from

Man's Throat Cut, But He Will Live, Doctors Declare
JACKSONVILLE, Fl. Sept. 11—(B-Y-P. N.-S.) *B* - Benjamin Johnson, whose throat was slashed from ear to ear, leaving a very deep and ugly gash, last Tuesday, is expected to live, acting as physicians at the County Hospital. William Jones is held on duty of suspicion. Jones is alleged to have done the cutting, and is being held without bail pending the outcome of Johnson's wound.
The men are said to have gotten into an altercation which resulted in the cutting. It is believed the men quarreled over a woman. Two knives are being held by the police as evidence, both knives are said to have belonged to Jones. One was a shoemaker's knife, and the other a large barlow.
barreled shotgun loned with squirrel shots.
The tragedy was the outgrowth of strained relations between the land-owner and the girls, which had existed for some time. It is alleged that the younger Miss Greenlow, while working in the capacity of housekeeper to the dead man, was in reality little more than a vassel; Fields using methods comparable with the slavesmaster's effort to tow women slaves in the dark days before the Civil War. On numerous occasions it is alleged, the man had mistreated the girl, even going so far as to administer a summary punishment in the form of whippings with the lash.
The young girl, finally tiring of this abuse, told her sister of the incident. Threatened by Fields when she went to remonstrate with him, the older girl seized a shotgun owned by Fields and killed him.
A Bad Character
Investigation into the record of Fields revealed. the fact that he was known everywhere as a "bad character." It is rumored that the dead man shot his wife several years ago in Lincoln county, causing the loss of her eyesight and further disfiguring her. Miss Greenlow was arrested and was held over to await the action of the Grand Jury on a formal charge of murder.
Family Feud May Have Been Reason For Branding Man
Family Feud May Have Been Reason For Branding Man
WAUKEGAN, Ill., Sept. 11—With the letters, "K. K. K." branded on his chest, Thomas Stolp, a white man, is alleged to have accused six Negroes of committing the crime, after robbing him. The man was found bound, blinfolded and gagged in deserted cottage, near here. Further investigation by officials, however, led to the information that Stolp man had to be the victim of a family feud. A story of family trouble—a feud which involved his father-in-law and mother, who makes her home with Stolp, was uncovered, thus disclaiming the rumor that Negroes were responsible for the branding.

BUZZIN' AROUND HEADQUARTERS
Nearly 1,000 men and women braved the Inclemant weather Tuesday to attend a joint session at Central Baptist Church of the Grand Household of Ruth-Womens Branches. and Uniform Ranks, known as the Patriarchs.
Grand Master Morris of Chicago presented at Tuesday's session a ready report, which was very encouraging.
An interesting letter from the Parent Order in England sending cordial greetings, was read to the delegates assembled.
The women's authorities of the Order of Odd Fellows known as the Household of Ruth have played an important part in bringing the organization to its present lofty position.
They even had delegates from Vermont and New Hampshire present.
Urge North To 'Play Fair With Negro
Urge North To 'Play Fair With Negro
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 11
Migrants who have come into Northern sections from the South are called upon in an "address to the country" adopted at the concluding sessions of the Lott Carey Foreign Mission convention to deport themselves in such a manner as not to bring reproach upon the race. It urges that they "retrain from spending their money on luxuries and pleasures and buy homes, erect business houses and strive in every way to make good law-abiding citizens of themselves.
The convention, which ended a meeting attended by 600 delegates, expressed "reget to find that the spirit of unjust treatment which characterizes much of the south is finding its way into some of the Northern communities "and appealed" to the Christian conscience of the North and West for fair play." Membership in labor organizations was recommended, with a warning against those having "anarchistic and Soviet tendencies," and enforcement of the prohibition laws was advocated. The society also pledged itself "to contend for a maintenance" of American nonmembership in the League of Nations.
Citizens Rally To Support of Roberts
Continued
both races are campaigning for Roberts, who represents a high and fine type of American citizenship.
"Financial backing has added some difficulty to the progress of the tremendous effort, it was learned at headquarters, but through the campaign committee, requests for contributions are receiving a ready answer from the front office. South are asked to contribute that "we do not fail in this the greatest of opportunities."
Send Funds!
"Send Funds," has been the appeal of the Roberts Headquarters at 2368 Seventh avenue, New York City. In a statement H. Adolph Howell, the treasurer, declared:
"The general impression is that colored residents of this district are in the majority, when as a matter of fact we are considerably outnumbered by our white fellows. In the general election Dr. Roberts will be opposed by the present incumbent, Congressman Royall S. Weller, a Democrat. As a first essential to success we must move to awaken our people to the vital importance of this effort. We must see to it that every qualified voter is registered, and that every registered voter has his ballot for Dr. Polly. This message must be carried into every home, and to successfully cope with an opposition possessed of far greater resources we must institute an intensive campaign, to be prosecuted without cessation from now until the polls close on Election Day.
"The costs involved in this effort are tremendous—they should be shared by every Negro worthy of the name."
The committee itself has financed a part of the campaign, it was learned today, and their appeal comes unselfishly. All contributions should be sent to Mr. H. Adolph Howell, treasurer, Roberts Congressional Campaign Committee, 2368 Seventh avenue, New York City. Because of the great principle involved in the contest, donors are expected to give freely.
Caroline Wilkins Waves. Goodbye to. Harlem
Continued
she told a friend just before leaving, and her pale cheek and unusual slenderness showed that a month's rest in the exclusive New York town may bring back the roses to her cheek and... her heart.
No, pretty Carolyn is not loversick as the naughty gossips would have it. Try as they may she refuses to allow her name to be linked with a prosperous Seventh avenue professional man. Only several months ago the untimely tragic going of her devoted husband, the late Barron DeWare Wilkins, made her ill with grief and nervous shock.
Admiries? The fair widow has many of them, for she is, indeed, a lovely picture in her fashionable mourning attire.
And, the gossips, trying to be kind, say pretty Carolyn will come back to dear old Harlem again. Somewhere, someone has written, "They Always Do."

Both men are well known, and their arrest has been the discussion of the social colony of which they have long been a part. Although police claim Harris confessed, many friends esteem his belief that he not done so, and that he was not the "master mind" in the affair.
D. M. Weir, from whose home the jewels are alleged to have been stolen, is vice president of the Wierton Steel Company, and is rputed to be very wealthy. The theft was discovered last week, and the arrest of Harris and Burwell followed a few days later.

Maryland Minister, Stripped of Pastoral Duties, Denies Charges—Seeks Retrial.
BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 18.—Declaring that he was stripped of his pastoral duties without due process of trial, the Rev. H. A. Hilliard of N. Caroline street, former pastor of St. Phillips' Evangelical Lutheran Church, started court proceedings recently to secure a new trial.
It is said that the dismissal of Rev. Hilliard came about on the grounds of charges preferred by Mr. and Mrs. Testman of N. Carolina street, and members of his congregation. Mrs. Testman charged, it is alleged, that the man made improper proposals to her and in this charge, she is supported by Mr. Testman. This charge by Mrs. Testman has been stoutly denied by the pastor and in his court action, either libel or slander proceedings will be instituted against the couple.
Another charge is that the reverend was seen dancing on a moonlight excursion, and it is further relied upon by the funds, belonging to the church and congregation: All these charges, Rev. Hilliard stoutly denies.

Coleman, according to his story, returned home Tuesday evening to find Rudasill, a roomer in the Coleman home, in what the husband says a compromising situation with his wife. After breaking, in the front door, the man secured a gun from a dresser and began firing. Rudasill made no statement regarding the affair before he died, but Coleman's wife denied ever having intimate relations with the dead man.

Bible record informs us that man's pilgrimage on this plane is three score years and ten. "Job" exclaims all the days of his appointed time he will wait' till his change come. We pause for the moment, and in the silence we meditate. Out from the consciousness of soul unfoldment comes, this momentous query. We have applied out heart to Wisdom by taking toll our stewardship? "Fing, in keeping Did we regard the high estate Infinite Spirit, "God", have placed us creating and making us sons and daughters, with the sixth sense! Have we been dutiful to the obligations we owe to ourselves, even the work reposed to our care and keeping? If in these things we have been faithful and diligent, we have been justified by and through works. Our three score years and ten will be amazing monuments of his love and truth verified.

New York Band Wins Elks' Contest Here
The annual contest of bands recently held at the Duquesne Garden was a tremendous success. It was the beginning of a fitting close to a gala week. The music rendered was excellent and demonstrated beyond a doubt that the men were trained well for their particular work. In fact because of such perfection among all it was a difficult matter to determine just who was the winner. The following are the point which governed the judges in awarding their decisions.
According to the judges' decision,
01 New York Band No. 97, under the leadership of Mr. Fred Simpson was awarded the first prize of $200, and to the Baltimore Band No. 89, under the leadership of the famous Charlie Harris, was awarded the second prize of $100. The Cleveland Band received honorable mention. The Crack Community Center Band of Washington, D. C., did not participate.
The judges of this contest were Prof. James E. Miller, leader of the Community Center Band, Washington, D. C., and Mr. Percy Ray, treasurer of the same band. Prof. Miller is a graduate of the Mathieu School of Harmony, Ranging and Instrumentation. He is well known in Pittsburgh, having appeared here with five members of his family as the Six Musical Millers. They played a number of Pittsburgh theatres.

For First Time In Ring Career Wills Smiles As Firpo Stumbles Along
No Knocking Out of Ring by "Pampus Bull" As Wills, Using His Science, Makes Opponent Look Like Dub—Firpo Fails to Land Clean Blow.
RINGSIDE, BOYLE'S THIRTY ACRES, JERSEY CITY, N. J., Sept. 11.—Harry Wills, the "Brown Panther" from the docks of New Orleans, slipped a ring through the Wild Bull's nose and led him into the barn of hard blows like a fat and elderly cow here tonight.
Wills, his big chance at hand, fought the battle of his life. Game and courageous through the entire 12 rounds, master of the fighting from the first bell to the last, and outgaming his hairy opponent at every turn of the game.
Referee Sullivan Says Harry Wills Won All the Way, Could Have Had K. O.
NEW YORK, Sept. 11—Danny Sullivan, the zereefee, and Harry won his fight with Luis Firpo easily.
"The better man won on his form tonight, in my opinion. Firpo won the opponent, and Willis showed that he is ready for anything."
"Bat for a bit of overcautiousness, but I was ready for time in that second round, when Firpo hit the floor for a count of four. Willis might have won by one hit, but he seemed in a record with the 'Wild Bull.'"
"Firpo didn't make his usual stance clotting, fushing attack. The team was viciousness that he showed against Willard and against Dempsey. For one thing, Willis took the steam out of his hoop. He could, for another thing, Willis seemed to have a smart way of thinking, fushing with right. He rolled away all of them till the sting was gone for good."

RINGSIDE, BOYLE'S THIRTY ACRES, JERSEY CITY, N. J., Sept. 11. Between 65,000 and 70,000 bugs were on hand at 9:55 when Luis the Angel, climbed through the ropes and began to skip and feint in his corner. His handlers were Daniel Washington and William Tate.
Wills was the favorite in the betting, outside of New York. There the odds were 6 to 5 on the invader.
At 7:50, it was estimated that 40,000 people were in the wooden bowl. It was too cold for the native born mosquitoes, but the harvest moon cast a benignant one-eyed gleam over the meadows.
At 8:12, a black haired gentleman, accompanied by a step ladder came into the ring to test the ropes and the lights. Everything was "KO" with him.
The Prince of Wales was among those present, it was said, but his whereabouts were kept a deep secret. But there were many princes of whales in the ring.
Bill Tate sent a Senor Casanova, of Porto Rico kicking in two minutes of the first round of their setto. His training with the Argentine Bull stood William in good stead.
An eight-piece band, lost somewhere in that wooden expanse, rendered some sort of music which reminded us of that silver cornet. aggregation we knew in that dear old Franklin, Pee Ay, long years ago.
Senor Firpo's brilliant robe of a distinctive plaid pattern was absolutely not a thing of beauty.
Wills got the more applause—if that meant anything.
At nine o'clock there were 60,000 of us there.
A collection was taken for the Jersey City Home for the Blind.
Jack Dempsey, an unknown guy from out West where men are men, and so forth, gave $200 and the crowd demanded a look-see at him, so he climbed into the ring, such is fame.
Bill White and Archie Morgan, of the Defender, and Charlie Williams, physical director at Hampton, made the trip to Jersey with us in a bus.
Harry Wills was the first gladiator to be introduced by Honest Joe Humphries, the demon announcer. He got a glad hand from the bugs.

They don't have any fight judges, officials in this state. Guess the noble athletes are afraid of "Jersey Justice".
Rickard luck ran true to form. The weather broke just right for genial Tex. The day was clear and warm and the night cashed in all the promissory notes made for it during the early hours. That bird never picks a bad date. He is so sure of himself that he never buys rain insurance.
Tis queer how much a five cent bottle of soda is sold for. At Hilldale Park it cost a dime. At the Yankee stadium they gyp you fifteen cents. On Boyle's dirty acres it brought 20 cents a gulp. (Hope Ed Bolden does not read this paragraph).
The whole card was made up of heavyweight boxers, most of whom were very, very bad.
Harry Wills is sure popular with the crowd. From all over the arena they were pleading with him to knock Firpo into the Hudson River. He almost did it in the second round and if Firpo had not become so affectionate he would have gone away any minute after the eighth session.
Firpo surprised the talent by weighing in at 224½, which gave him 7½ pounds on Wills. Harry was 3 pounds heavier than the night he fought Bartley Madden.
Sixty-five out of 100 New York experts, including Sam Langford, Romeo Dougherty, Big Bill Edwards and Mrs. Harry Wills picked the Brown Panther to win.
Ike Dorgan has a system all his own. If you are entitled to a press ticket he sends you a telegram, collect, to call at the tower gate of Madison Square Garden for it. That's just what we had to do.
The travel to Jersey congested all ferry traffic for hours. Hundreds of sightseeing buses were pressed into service to help carry the crowd. Some of the pirates charged one fifty a round trip from Harlem, payable in advance, and try to find 'em coming back. A party of Citizen Club members of Philadelphia left the bowl after the fight and wound up on Staten Island instead of Times Square.
SIX
ponent at every turn of the game, the New Yorker won all the way—in a walk. Firpo did not take a round.
For the first time in the history of ringside chair warmers, who have been watching Wills, man and boy, for 15 years, Harry smiled tonight. He smiled over the ropes to the nearby spectators. He smiled at the expressionless mug of the "Wild Bull", made unbelievably tame as he received the worst body beating ever administered to man. Harry had Firpo whipped from the instant of their first impact. He knew it, Firpo knew it, and the invisible thousands of customers, sitting banked about the ring in the rickety pine structure knew it.
For once a Firpo fight ended without the usual fireworks. There was no tumbling out of the ring, np spectacular finish. It might have been dramatic enough had Wills succeeded in keeping the Wild Bull on the floor in the second round. Wills seemed to have the fight then and there. Firpo got up pretty; groggy and would have been prey for Wills, had the other not insisted on sticking to his set program of fighting, mapped out long before the men entered the ring.

to body. They clinched and after the break Wills followed up with rights and lefts to body. Harlem cheered as Firpo backed and covered.
Firpo glanced a punch on Wills' neck and Harry rushed him across the ring. They met in the center and Firpo seemed to want to smash it out with Wills but broke ground when Harry came in crouching. Luis pushed a futile left in Harry's face and clinched.
Wills followed a left to the body with a right to the jaw. He put a left in the snarling face of his opponent and a breath-taking right in his ribs. Firpo punched Wills' head and missed with his "new discovery," the left uppercut. Wills countered with right to mouth. They clinched and each did some one-armed punching. Wills sent a right to the jaw and Firpo's knees sagged as he hung on.
Firpo's right said "howdy" to Harry's chin and the Seventh avenue favorite waltzed into a clinch. Two swinging hooks to Luis' jaw shook him up and somebody called for a broom as he went into a clinch. Another right to the jaw sent Firpo to the ropes but he clinched as Wills came in to finish him. Firpo's right to the jaw on the breakaway was a mere love-tap.
Firpo led with right and left to body and clinched. Wills held with his left and punished Luis severely with his right. Firpo connected with Wills' head and the latter crouched and slammed with right to body. Firpo clinched and used Wills for a support as his legs buckled beneath him.
Firpo rushed, not to punch but to clinch and Wills stormed his head and body with rights and lefts. With every punch the "darling of the pampas" seemed to wilt a little more. With a knockout ringing for him Luis hugged and hugged and Sullivan had to use force to make him break. Wills hooked left to body and Firpo grabbed him. Wills, with right arm free, punched him in the kidneys and Luis swayed and was saved only by the bell.
They shook hands for the final round and Firpo swung wildly as he went into a clinch, Wills broke away and planted his left to face and right to head. Luis missed with a wild right and Wills' uppercut him. Firpo fell forward and grasped Wills who made a desperate effort to break and finish the job. With seconds to go and only seconds to save him from a rocking in the cradle of the sleep Luis hung on and the bell saved him.
Only an improved ability in the ring saved the South American. Had his craft been no greater than the night he fought Jack Dempsey Firpo would have been knocked kicking about the fourth round. Wills was so completely his master that his only hope was to swing and clinch and hope to stay.
Wills came out of the battle without a bruise and with his hands in perfect condition. The end of the thirty-six minute ordeal found him as fresh as the proverbial daisy. Today but one man stands between him and the top o' the world and that is Jack Dempsey.
Who proved conclusively that he remains as the only "logical contender" for the diadem now worn by champion Jack Dempsey.
Wills showed that he is the same Harry Wills of old. He showed ring science, hitting power, and more than anything else, ability to "take it". His courage will never be doubted again.
Firpo Given Bad Beating, Yells In Pain
Face and Body a Mass of Bruises, Argentine Battler Is Sorry Spectacle As He Leaves Ring.
NEW YORK, Sept. 11 — The Brown Panther clawed the wild bull silly in the Jersey City bowl tonight, floored him with a right crack on the jaw in the second round, but couldn't stop him.
Will's won in every round, and when it was all over, it must be said that his fine condition carried him through to victory. On the other hand, Sirpo lacked all his old punch. He tired, he floundered and he squealed out loud when Wills rouched him in the clinches.
In the last round, Wills landed a hard left hook to Firpo's stomach, and you could hear the Wild Bull bellow with pain 20 feet back from the ring. Wills was never in danger. He got many a hard punch on the ribs, a few to the head, and always took them with a smile and with the ease and confidence of a man quite sure of himself.
The fight was more or less of a joke after Wills dropped Firpo in the second. Luis didn't a look in. There was not a round that could be called close and near the end it looked as though Firpo was looking for the back door as Harry banged him mercilessly about the ribs with both aands. Firpo's body was a sight from the fierce drubbing he was subjected to. There were welts on it which you could hang your hat on when the show was over.
Firpo's lips were badly cut, his nose smashed halfway over his face, his body a mass of big red, ugly welts and his ear looked as though someone had been chewing on it, as he left the ring:

RINGSIDE, BOYLE'S THIRTY
ACRES, JERSEY CITY, N.J. Sept.
11. "Don't ask me anything; I am so happy. Harry won as I knew he would, 'tears of happiness streaming 'down her pretty face, the wife of the victorious Brown Panther clapped her hands for joy when friends surrounded her with cries of "congratulations". Smartly attired in the season's latest sport costume, she presented a striking picture at the ringside, where she sent unfailing and mysterious love messages across the ropes to the heart of "her man." "Mental telepathy," some may call it, but Mrs. Wills says it is old-fashioned love - understanding between husband and wife, that heals wounded hearts and spurs men to great achievement.
For theirs is a wonderful companionship that has staged the test of the inconveniences of training camp life as well as the luxury of peaceful domesticity in her fashionable Harlem apartment.
Up on Peconic Bay where Wills underwent the rigid training which resulted in his triumph over the Wild Bull of the Pampas, the little wife superintended the recreational life of the stalwart fighter.
"Early in the morning with our playmate 'Champ' I went out on the rode with Harry. After breakfast I drove him to Southampton for mail and how he would enjoy the beautiful scenery and exhilarating atmosphere of that lovely countryside. And in the evening, we would take quiet strolls through the country, or lounge in the living room listening to the radio," she said
"I suppose you gave him the usual wifely advice?" "Yes, of course. You know every man needs someone to 'mother' him. I attended his work-outs, looked after the kitchen, for he must be so careful about his diet. And, today, he has won. I am so proud. You will pardon my egotism, but, isn't he wonderful?" she beamed. Well, we agreed with her. Harry Wills is wonderful.
"I don't know where, but we are going to failly lose ourselves for several weeks. No reporters, no visitors, just a real vacation. But you'll agree Harry deserves it." And the charming-wife of the pugilist waved us aside, for someone had said "Wills is asking for the 'BOSS.'" Hastily she made her way toward his dressing-room.
Firpo Fails To Put Over Real Wallop
BOYLE'S THIRTY ACRES, JERSEY CITY, N. J., Sept. 11.—Harry Wills, the New Orleans panther, made Luis Firpo of Buenos Aires look hopelessly amateurish in 12 clumsy rounds before 60,000 fans in Tex Rickard's big pine bowl here tonight. How the stumbling, dull witted giant from the Argentine ever reached the point where he should even be considered as a contender for heavyweight honors was more than a puzzle to the disappointed spectators. Wills had every round by a wide margin, and for that matter Firpo never landed an effective blow during the entire journey. There were times during the bout when the crowd laughed at the ludicrous efforts of the South American to fight back at the New York boxer who ripped and tore into his foeman almost at will and rocked him all over the place.
In the second sound Wills dropped Firpo with a right-hand chop to the chin, and it looked like curtains for the visitor, but he managed to struggle to his feet at the count of five and hold on until his head had cleared.

JERSEY CITY, N. Jr., Sept. 11—A crowd of between 120,000 paid approximately $800,000 to witness the FireWolf tonight, according to Promoter Tex Richards.
Although from the ringside the band held filled there several sections, particularly in the higher-priced seats, which were filled. The legal barriers which had been thrown in the way and series of postponements of other major sporting events fected the attendance, the promoter asserted.
The throng included many notables of the race, but although orate preparations had been made for him, the Prince of Wales appear. There were reports that the British baird had called trance in disguise and witnessed the bout unencumbered and a conspicuous spot, but it seemed fairly well established that the evening on Long Island instead.
Referee Saves Firpo From Knockout In Second Row
JERSEY CITY, N. J., Sept. 11.—Harry Willis under a handicap—a handicap placed upon him by persistent demands of Danny Sullivan, the referee, the fighters break clean.
This is the opinion of scores of scribes and app the post-mortem of the fight gets under way. It is Sullivan's insistence on clean breaks every second or it possible for Firpo to clinch repeatedly, and oh—he needed it. A clinch meant another clean break, and was the only one happier for it.

Picks \ All-Star N. N. League Team
Chicago and Kansas City Players Get Preference In Selection of Detroit Fan.
By CLARENCE SMITH
DETROIT, Mich., Sept. 11—For months fans of this section have been heatedly discussing the merits of their star white and black baseball players in America. Many contend that there are as good Nogro players in the Western Circuit of the Negro National League as can be found in the big leagues, while a few hold the opinion that the white league players in the Southern colleges leaded leagues. However, we here with submit a selection of a baseball club from the Negro National League whom we think would hold its own against any club in America, regardless of color or league. The club is coming to two men, including two utility men;
1. Gardner, rf. c. Chicago
2. DeMoga, 2h. c. Chicago
3. DeMoga, 2f. c. Detroit
4. Mouge, rf. c. Kansas City
5. McNair, lr. c. Kansas City
6. McNair, lr. c. Kansas City
7. Joseph, 2h. c. Kansas City

12. Conner, p. c. Kansas City

15. Mendez, p. c. Kansas City
16. Mendez, p. c. Kansas City
17. New Allen, Ull. Inf. c. Kan. City
18. Conches—Hirce Petway, Detroit C. Ummrees—Jamison and Johnson
There are many more good players in this section who are eligible, but as only 16 could be selected it is impossible to carry them on this list. These men were selected for their all-round baseball team while some of them are eclipsed in games of the game by other men not mentioned here, they are more reliable in the pinches and endowed with a greater baseball strategy. Cooper and Streeter can cope with the best left-handed country, while Rogan, Bindexter and Mendon of the best offerings from around ever seen.
The coaches, an important factor in baseball, have been carefully selected for their ability to meet the needs of the bases and the proper-pep in the players. The umpires, both colored, rank with the best in the country and would qualify for the club. A series of matches between this club and other selection.
If you know of a better selection,
let's have it.
Gourdin Winner In New England Championships
BOSTON, Mass., Sept. 11—Running in the New England A. A. U. track and in field championships last Sunday, Ned Goulard, former holder of the world's broad-jump record and a member of the 1924 Olympic team, captured the third heat of the 100 yard dash in 10 2-5 seconds; won the running broad jump with a leap of 22 feet 5% inches; was second in the running hop, step and jump; clearing over 40 feet threw the javelin 167% feet, which was good enough to land him third place in that event. Other athletes who made good showings were Ben Bosser, former Syracuse Baylor and track star; Robert Bailow and the Community A. A. and Andy Frazier, Massachusetts State High School A. A.

The judge granted his request. Johnson admitted "volley" miles an hour, when taken, but said it was because of the weather. On a damp day like today, he said, "you can't hold automobiles in."

Hilldale Rally In Ninth Turns Loss To Victory
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 11—Despite the fact that the Washington aggregation shelled big Nimp Winters off the mound in the sixth inning, by chasing it and hitting it, Hilldale knotted up the count in the seventh and put over the winning run in the ninth inning, winning by a 5-to-4 score. T'o fans were treated to a real article of the national pastime, both the team and the fonts. Chaney White was the individual star for the visitors, pulling in seven chances, many of them apparently being labeled for hits. The work of Stevens and Warfield around the keystone; sack brought in the first few rallies; eleven chances were handled without a slip by the Stevens-Warfield combine and they figured in several double killings that nipped Washington rallies. The game Hilldale held Washington to an even break on the season's series, each club winning five games.

Waters Wins Birmingham Auto Derby
SAVANNAH, Ga., Sept. 11 — Driving with the reckless abandon of a darcevel and shattering local speed records as he rushed on in his mad race against time and his nearest rival, Bruin, "Coolie" Waters, piloting his special built Chevrolet, pulled out of a cloud of dust side by side for the lifted almost side by side for the home stretch and won by about 25 yards in one of the most sensationals races ever staged on a local speedway. The 3-mile classic was the feature of the Labor Day auto derby staged at the Waters took first place in the three-mile race and also in the special match race of three miles between him and Joe Bruin, in a Jordan special. By doing this, he annexed the covered title of champion automobile drivers in Southeast Georgia.
The feature event of the afternoon's card was the 3-mile championship. The three cars got off to a good start and as they crossed the iron steed and it jumped to the fore. At the first turn, he was about 10 feet in front of Joe Bruin, the Savannah champion. In :l cloud of dust the three cars entered the back stretch and Waters in a track track. He was in the cards and cards of Bruin. Lockhart's car went dead on the south turn and he was out of the race. Bruin attempted unsuccessfully to cut down the lead. In one desperate effort to overtake Waters, the south turn of th terack, but succeeded in getting his car under control before any harm was done. This misfortune killed his chances of winning. Waters then staged a brilliant finish, winning in the time of 3 min. and 43 seconds for the three
In the big 3-mile between Waters and Bruin, Waters again got the advantage by beating his rival to the north curve and again his roaring car threw clouds of dust into his opponent's path. While Bruin was apparently gaining slightly, his car lost a rear wheel and this put him out of the running. The motorcycle races proved a success, who won both races in easy fashion from his five competitors and thus retained his title of champion motorcycle rider of Southeast Georgia.

Eastern
Eastern Snapshots
EASTERN BALL PLAYERS ARE ENTHUSIASTIC over the prospects of an intersectional series. Even those teams which cannot hope to profit by the games are heartily in favor of the battles.
Most of this talk about ball players not respecting contracts is blah, blah. In most instances the players who jumped east or west were either free agents or the property of clubs which had not paid their salaries.
A prominent athlete told us recently why he came east. He said that his former club owed him and that he could not collect his salary. During the winter he played for three winter clubs and the eastern one answered first and made the best offer. So east he came. He says that he is still owed money by the western team.
ONE OF OUR GOOD FRIENDS SENDS US his idea of an All-Eastern team. He shapes it up this way: Rojo and Pullen, Baltimore, catchers; Ryan and Winters of Hildale and Oscar, Cubans, pitchers; Hudspeth, Lincoln, first base; Warfield, Hildale, second base; Beckwitt, Baltimore, Lincoln, Lincoln, third; Charleston, Hawkinsburg; Scott of Royale and Washington of the Potomac, outfield. He wants to know what we think of it.
Not so worse, brother, not so worse. There are about five men there who could hardly be kept off anybody's ball team. That outfit would step along at a merry clip east or west.
IF CONNOR COMES BACK INTO THE GAME next year with no league affiliations the magnates will have something else to worry about. The big New Yorker has not yet definitely announced that he will return, but his actions seem to ballyhoo his intentions. But we don't have to worry about that, not being a club owner.
The wife and the mother of William Pettus wish to thank friends, THE COURIER, the Hotel Tattler, the Lincoln Giants and the Cosy Corner Club for their kindness and words of sympathy to them during their sad bereavement.
HILLDALE HAS WON THE NENNANT FOR THE YEAR in the Eastern League. The race is not over, but no one can beat out the Clan Darbie. Playing games now is but a formality.
We cannot say that this year's team is as impressive as the one which flaunted the Bolden colors last season, but they had a knack of winning games and games are all that are figured in the won and lost columns. Several parts in the machine are about worn out and there will probably be replacements before another season rolls its way through the calendar. Some of the men, notably Lewis, Stevens and Judy Johnson, are bound to increase in efficiency. Each of these boys has taken many a strife. The pitching staff has been well balanced in some respects. On it are men who can heat all the independents, but do not do so well against Negro teams. Only recently has Lee been able to win in the league contests, although he has been carolic acid and corrosive sublimate combined to the white fellows.
With several men laid up from time to time Warfield has had to draw on reserves and call in the author of his book App outfit which call on Baby Doll Mackey or George Washington Carr in a pinch is lucky. Bizz has been a jack a'0 all trades, working behind the hat and at third, short and first. Carr has officiated in the gardens and on first. Each has played the game jam up wherever he has been.
BEN TAYLOR'S POTOMACS, THE MYSTERY TEAM OF THE LEAGUE, won two from the Lincoln Giants on Labor Day. Hampton and Carr turned in a 7-6 win in the first. Grier and Carr got away with the second, 16-13, which is a noise like a football score. Hampe threw his glove in the diamond on Thursday and Hilldale succeedmed, 6-4. Carr got a ninth tiring liking on Saturday, 5-4. Lee's sacrificial loft tailed Judy Johnston. When the Potomacs are good they are very, very good, but when they are bad they remind us of something Thomas Catt brought in. They have the best all around outfield in the league and one of the best catchers. Taylor and Hamilton rank high in their positions. Goodrich has not shown to good advantage because he has been the unfortunate victim of accidents all season. Hampton and Carr are two prize-pitchers for anyone. Aid in Charles, "Hop," Hopkins, late of the Epworth League, they have the livest, bull shootin' secretary in any league.
THE COLUMN WELCOMES OPINIONS FROM FANS as to whom they think is the outstanding player of the Eastern League. What man has meant the most to his team? What player could any club least afford lose? We feel anxious to see what the average fan sees. Perhaps we are hypercritical and expect too much of the diamond toilers, so we'll let the fans pick 'em.
Send your selections to the Philadelphia office, 532 S. Fifteenth street.
JUST NOW WE ARE MARKING TIME AS WE AWAIT THE BATTLE at Boyle's Thirty Acres, City of Jersey, State of Jersey. The ballyhoo, is ended and now the fighters must do their stuff. The talking time has passed. It is the zero hour. For one of the other of the principals the end of the lane has been reached. One goes into the night and one faces the defense of jugles which harbored the conqueror. That trick dame whom men call Lady Lackey may have something decisive to say about who shall get the glory. A wrenched unkle, a temporary filming of the eyes from the glare of the arcs may spell defeat. But we want the bout decided on its merits and we want the best man to win, regardless of how he pronounces his monicker. Lew Raymond, who has no love for our kind, told Gordon Mackay that Wills would knock out Firpo in less than two minutes. The majorities are picking the Brown Panther to win. "On with the dance and let joy be unrefined as they say in our very best cabaret.
SEE ANOTHER COLUMN IN YOUR FAVORITE WEEKLY for the result of the Godfrey-Renault fight. This screed is being typed on Sunday night, some twenty-four hours before the fracas, and we lay no claim to being a seer. Jacques Dempsey tells us he rather favors Renault, but we think Jacques is off on the wrong foot this time.
JAMES, THE NIPPER, ALLIAS PITCHER WINTERS, let Harrisburg down with one hit last week and won from them, 2-0. This comes close to being the best game hurled in the loop this season.

Harrisburg And Lincoln Giants Divide Twin Bill
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 11
The heavy hitting of the "Harrisburg Giants almost gave them a double victory over the local team, the Lincoln Giants, in their final series of the season at the Catholic Protective Oval today. The visitors won a 6-3 victory in the opener and scored the scoring, nosed them out in a 12-11 victory. The second game should have been an easy victory for the home-team, as the score was 11-6 up to the ninth inning. In the last inning Evans weakened and errors by Williams, Wilson and Scales started the scoring and five runs were brought in before Dave Brown, who was rushed in after two men were out, was able to score the scoring. Lincoln's half of the ninth, hits by Smith, Williams and Singer gave them the winning run.
Although the day was unusually cool, a large crowd was present and included Rube Foster and Teney Blount of the National Negro Baseball league, who are in the East arranging for the colored world’s selections. The lead that has existed between the two leagues is now about over.

Big Turnout For Tuskegee Eleven
Big Turnout For Tuskegee Eleven
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., Sept. 11—Football practice got under way in good fashion at Tuskegee Institute, Monday afternoon, when 48 stalwart youths met Coach Abbott on Washington Field. The first week was devoted to condition-exercise and in handling the ball. Among the candidates reported to early practice were the following members of last season's machine: Captain Duncan, right end; Tadlock, center; Stevenson, halfback; Stewart, halfback; Bailey, fullback; Joiner, fullback, and last season is also working out with the squad. Wooten, halfback; Brown, guard; Gilbo, left end, and Robinson, guard, on last year's eleven, are expected to arrive in the Tiger camp at an early date. The stellar backfields of last year are intact for the 1924 campaign, providing Boss remains, "with a large number of players to bind the Tiger boards are destined to give their opponents "a plenty of entertainment."
"Duke" Abbott the crafty Tiger mentor, fresh from the School for Cogaches at "Fair Harvard" and bubbly over with new ideas, refused to predict the outcome of the forthcoming season.

Charley West May Turn To Pro Football
WASHINGTON, Pa., Sept. 11 — Charles West, former brilliant athlete of W. & J. college in both track and field sports and football, will probably play professional football this fall. West has received several offers, but is not certain as to where he will locate. Harold Erickson, who will coach the Milwaukee Buddges this year, is anxious to have the former Red and Black flash added to the constellation of stars he is assembling for the coming season. Wilkes-Barre, which is connective, has also, approached West as Akron, Wayne Brenkert, former W. & J. luminary, will be at Akron again this fall and was instrumental in having the management of that club make an offer to West. West has just returned to Washington for the first time since he left to go to Europe with the excellent condition and feels the call of the pridirion with the W. & J college players of the present day assembled here for their preliminary training.

(Continued from Last Week)
THIS being Bennet's last year in college the lover busied, themselves, between studies, with planning for their home. Prom week came, one of the annual institutions of every New England college, a time when books were forgotten and their heart of youth was the only serious study they made. Grietat Miss Gregory's were busy with their busy plan, their dresses and their beau. The engagement of Bennet and Lida was well established in the minds of all the girls despite efforts on the part of the two _t_ concealing the fact from the public. All the girls were aware of the state of affairs with the single exception of the head of the school. With proverbial consistency the only person who should have known most of all of the engagement was the one person who did not, Miss Gregory.
Following the encounter of Louise Comstock with Lida and Bennet at the president's reception intercourse between the two girls was strained and difficult. Lida was so centered in her studies and Bennet, that she gave little heed to the incident and the two girls having no classes together, any personal contact or confidence was easily avoided, particularly since Louise made a very studied effort to escape contact where possible. From the hour of the reception, however, there came over Louise Comstock a mood that changed her from a happy hearted and usually frank girl into a quiet, taciturn and somewhat morose/miss.
The occasion for the change disclosed itself, when lessons aside a
group of the young women had en-scenced themselves in the corner of the great reception room on the main floor of the school, amid a profusion of sofa pillows and were discussing partners and escorts for the dance, the feature of From week.
"Paul will be here from Yale, just think of that, girls!" chattered one of the group.
"Yes, and Harry will come to take me. He wrote me yesterday that he could get away," spoke up another.
Louise Comstock was just coming into the room from one of the upper floors when several of the girls spoke at once:
"Who's going to take you, to the dance, Louise?" She hesitated and flushed before speaking. She had had several of the young men from college inviting her to be their guests, but had refused them all. She was hoping for an invitation from one, but that one never realized, so never asked her. Pressed for an answer, as the girls grouped themselves about her she waved them aside with only the words, "wait and see."
"Oh, I hate mysteries. Why make one of this, Louise? Come on, be a sport, tell us. I'm not afraid to say, Paul will take me. Harry is to take Madge and we each know who the other girls' fussers are. Who's yours."
"Wait and see," was all she would answer. With that she departed. When she left, however, there was determination in her mind. It was rather a bold move and she flushed as she determined but decided to go through with it. Going to her room she hastily scribbled a note, donned her wraps and left for the street to

if to mail it. She walked toward the men's college and when near there espied a small boy peddling papers.
"Take this note to the address on it—and here's a dime for your trouble."
The urchin took the note in his soiled hands; looked at the dime, then read the address and answered, knowingly, "Yes, Miss. Any answer?"
"No. Just say I'm waiting," she suggested.
The youngster made his way across the campus to the main college hall and up to Bennet's room. After rapping on the door and being bidden to enter, the boy asked: "This Mr. Bennet Mr." "This Mr. Bennet," answered Truman, at which the note was handed to him. The boy waited while Bennet read: "Dear Mr. Bennet:
I know this is unconventional, but I would like a few words with you. I'll be waiting at the main gate.
The Girl you rescued
At reading the signature Bennet immediately thought of Lida, but the note not being in her hand writing he realized it was not she who wished to see him. He had forgotten Louise for the time. He re-read the note and stood gazing at it till recalled by the words of the newsboy who was still waiting.
"She's a swell Dame that's waitin' for youuz," he volunteered hoping for another tip, knowing from experience the prodigality of college boys, participation in college sports, unimposed. He was disappointed, however, for Bennet instead of handing him another coin or making any remark, got into his hat and coat and strode down the stairs. At the gate he was greeted with an extended hand, and:
"How do you do, Mr. Bennett?"
Bennett raised his hat and smiled, a little bit puzzled; then waited for the girl to speak again.
He jumped up, bold and I've lost in your estimation, but I've wanted for ever so long to let you know how grateful I was for the way you came to our rescue that after-

moon last fall. At first I did not know who you were and could not thank you; then I have not seen you very much since, and there has been no opportunity." "Oh, there's no need for thanks, Miss-Miss—Comstock!" He recalled the name at mention of the rescue. "I sincerely hope you are recovered and have not suffered from the experience." And he handed her hands over her heart to still the parturbation there but failed. Her breath came in short puffs and confusion suffused her face. She was glad to note that Bennett had not embarrassed her by failing to remember her.
"I shall never forget your bravery, Mr. Bennet—and I can never thank you enough. You don't know how often I wished for the opportunity to personally express my gratitude," she exclaimed. "It never came so I sought it tonight. Do you think the less of me for it."
"On the contrary I honor you for the frankness you've shown. In these days of flappers and feminism it is thoroughly in keeping with the times that you should act with freedom."
"You'll think me molder still and less feminine when I tell you that I have a great fun for the sake of you."
she touched his arm as she essayed to speak. "Now, don't pledge yourself till you know what it is. That wouldn't be fair to you. I have a special reason for asking—It is that you allow me to be your guest at the dance."
The two had been walking slowly along the twilight brightened street. When she made the request, Bennet halted and faced the girl, surprise almost taking his breath away. Bennet thought of Lida then wondered. He looked at the girl at his side and saw only earnestness and sincerity in her face. At first he was on the point of denouncing her, but at sight of the seriousness mirrored in her countenance he controlled himself and was all sympathy. "You can't really mean that, Miss Comstock. You're joking," Bennet managed to say.
"I'm in deep earnest, Mr. Bennet." The tone proved her sincerity. The solemnity with which the words were uttered and the expression on the girl's face were convincing. They had paused in their walk and stood facing each other. There was a long silence in which the nervous breathing of each could be heard. One could also almost hear the throbbing of the girl's heart. Bennet spoke at last, in his deep vibrant voice. "Pardon me. I couldn't sense it at first. I'm sorry—very sorry I cannot, however, much like to oblige a lady and relieve her of the embarrassment of such a situation. I

Oh-h-h-h—I didn't know. I didn't know. I didn't know." At these words the girl was overcome with a fit of weeping for a few moments, great spasms of grief shaking her entire body. Suddenly, with tears blinding her she wheeled and hurriedly—almost ran from him.

Bennet's heart was full of compassion for the girl and her distress over her disappointment, 'moving what depth of feeling must have prompted her to make such a request of him. He returned to his room, a feeling of deep misery enveloping him because of the unavoidable hurt he had given the girl.
Yet what could he do? He tried to discover wherein he had been to blame for placing the girl in such a situation, yet could find no such occasion. True he had known her casually since the previous year, when they had met, but they had never been in each other's company for more than a few minutes at each time and he had never given her any attention. He felt that he must have been to blame in some way and yet could recall no occasion. He was miserable over the situation, being of high ideals as to his conduct with girls. He puzzled for some time over the situation" as he sat at his desk when he had returned to his room.
but try as he would to find wherein he was to blame for the situation he could not. His heart was heavy as he retired and for the first time in many weeks closed his eyes without the picture of Lida Lauriston in his mind. Rage, confusion, humiliation and chagrin surged through Louise Comtock's being as she ran from Bennet and started back for her school. Rage because she had failed to find in him the response she desired; chagrin to think that he loved another girl when she loved him so, confusion at the thought of the position in which she had placed herself, in his estimation and humiliation at the thought that she must attend the reception, if at all, alone having refused all other invitations hoping to be invited by Bennet. Tears of blinding anger flowed down her cheeks unheeded as she hurried along.
Self pity at her disappointment filled her for a time and then anger returned. It was not anger, however, directed against Bennet. They say hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, but while this may be true, Louise found no anger in her heart at this moment against Bennet. Her anger was against the fate that permitted another to have, what she sought, a man's heart and love. She reached her room she knew not how, without being observed by ... of the other girls and threw herself sobbingly on her bed, where she lay for several hours alternately crying softly and groaning in anguish. Bitterness filled her being and for a time she was overwhelmed with desire to die.

When the other girls found she was ill offered to remain with her and to help in whatever way they could, to relieve her. All their proffers were refused, however.
It was late in the afternoon when Lida heard of the illness of her friend, and with the compassion of one whose heart is filled with love she hurried to her friend's room. Love chastens some persons, causing them to feel more deeply the sufferings of others, and it has such an effect on some of those in love that they feel more tenderly, toward all suffering. True love, by reflection, so radiates itself that its effects are felt on those even hot the direct object of love with Lily. She was so completely in love herself that the intoxication of it expanded to take in those about her. It was in this gentle, expanding mood that she approached the door of Louise Comstock's room, turned the knob softly so as not to disturb the girl if she was sleeping and tipted gently in and toward the bed.
Menacing calmness had succeeded the spasms of weeping and the paroxysms of grief that had racked the girl's body and mind for the past twenty-four hours and she lay, quiet on her pillow, eyes half closed revolving in her mind a new deter

Here I am in Germany. Miss percissima went on day before yesterday to help Elman. The students had a bunch of students to help Elman. The students had a bunch of students in one of the sweltest rooms in the city. Two beds with skimmed guitles instead of the regular footboard faced the windows with hot and cold water. Winged easy chair, two large straight chairs; a wonderful sofa and a dressing table. We were writing desk combed. An immense bevelled plate barbed up the wash basin. For later months we had two large chandeliers in the room. Buttons for calling the whole hotel force of service were also in the room. We sat in the room and which money is about $1 I was asked to stay a week here, it would have cost $50 per day just for sleep. They made the special rate above for the European Hotel. Comfort was the station and there met a fine student of art who insisted beijing me to her boarding place. The Germans are a very popular people. This girl insisted upon my heavy bag to the train. For place she was at the English Garden in the River. It is a sort of easy house and an old ladies' restroom. I judged for 'there are a great many young girls and a few elderly ladies.

When no weesters are heer, I am eating things I don't even know the name of, but so far my meals have been very palatable, much more so than food served at the Dutch Camp. fast we have four round rolls a little butter-plate of marmalade and pot of chocolate. Butter is a very rare article. For dinner at 12 to 14, there were thin, vegetables, or stew, no bread. One egg, starchy; either potato, plantained macaroni.

They said the sisters house would use up the money each day as fast as it came in because they could never tell whether it would buy a thing next day or the next hour even. They said they would have the rapid fluctuations at first and a bib by getting their money change not using it. So many of the girls in the house would have their board money sent and before they could pay their bills it would be worthless. I have read a great deal about becoming paupers, but I did not think to live under the same roof, with one

By Mrs. Marcus Carvey (In the Negro World)
During our tour of the Mid-West, West and Southern
States of this country last October, we were able to thoroughly
familiarize ourselves with the activities of the Ku Klux Klan,
and from our observation of the political strength of this or
who acknowledge political obedience to the Pope of Rome, and Negroes, and, of course, favor white supremacy. The latter wing was formed about eighteen months ago. It is, therefore, apparent that the great objective is white supremacy. And some foolish Negroes, instead of getting together and devising means to preserve their own race, waste energy fighting white men, who declare that at the sacrifice of every other race on earth the white race must live.
We do not for one moment condone outrages perpetrated on our people, whether by Jew, Catholic or Klan. We strongly denounce injustice and wrong committed on our weak, unprotected race, but we do feel that if some thoughtless Negroes would organize as the Universal Negro Improvement Association to better the economic and political status of the race (not merely Negroes of one particular country), then the Klan and other similar organizations organized in the interest of the white race would not have the opportunity of trampling and ill-treating this political and economic beggar race, of which 400,000,000 Negroes are members, but would be compelled to reckon with an economically independent race, protected and sustained by strong Negro nations.
Two days ago, 15,000 white people gathered at Fairfield, Illinois, to participate in the Ku Klux Klan festivities in honor of Manny Steiner, local Jewish merchant, on the latter's fiftieth business anniversary. The Rev. H. G. Markley, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, and secretary of the local Klansmen, made the principal address. This and similar incidents occurring lately ought to make Negroes more thoughtful, and especially those who boast of the "toga of leadership" in communities, cities and states. The yellow man in his usual silent, systematic manner is bent on preserving the yellow race. His methods differ to the white man's, but the ends to be attained are identical. Mr. Black man "get busy," and black women, we appeal to you, get behind your men and keep them moving on the road to progress and nationhood. It is a question of the survival of the fittest and 400,000,000 black men and women cannot and must not perish in the struggle for existence on this great globe.

ganization in the above-named sections we were compelled to realize its potency in the nation.
Some Negroes who recently have not traveled much in this great country, and who did not trouble themselves to observe the change that has come over the entire nation within the last four years, were vigorous in their attacks on the K. K. K. and even challenged their existence. One should realize, as a Negro, in dealing with the K. K. K. that he not only has to reckon with the white man who wears a mask, but any white man who acknowledges his own race.
There are different kinds of Kluxers. Some wear masks; others do not. Some lynch Negroes. Others starve Negroes economically until the latter die. Some are registered members. Others are active sympathizers. One wing of the organization is against Catholics, Jews and Negroes, but favor white supremacy. Another wing is against the non-Protestant Jews. Catholics

Former School Superintendent, With "Pioneer Spirit" And Aid of Chickens,
Twenty-seven Acres of Woods Transformed Into Wonderful Estate Through Sagacity of Roscoe Conkling Brace.
A season or two ago Roscoe Conkling of Woods came to the aid of the city of Washington, where he used to superintend that colored schools, about twenty-seven acres of woods. It was only dense woods with a stream of water on it, and a river running back of it. This he has transformed into an estate with a modern residence, a great barn, a water system, a fifty-seven battery Delco electric plant, and a great hollow-tile henryn where nearly two thousand leghorn yearlings busy themselves with the production of the best grade of chalk white grit. In Boston, with demands as far west as Cleveland, Ohio. All this has been carved in a season or so out of the absolute wilderness, by a colored man who had been academically trained all of his life, and who was nationally supposed to know "chicken" only on the dinner table.
It is said that Negroes have none of the "pioneer spirit." Like all such broad assertions, that one is untrue. It is supposed that colored people never want to take an adjective and prophecy into mind or something for themselves, but that they want "ready made" things, with the electric lights ready to switch on. Mr. Bruce's fine achievement is a contradiction to that notion. And the truth is: that most colored people have been the United States in the last fifty years, had to be pioneers—in industry, business or profession. And it is gratifying to record that a colored man who was for a long term of years the superintendent of the largest and best Negro public school system, has been built on his own initiative a BUSINESS in which he can easily double any salary he has ever received.
It must be a marvellous restful

Man Is Killed Score Hurt, As Trains Crash
"Jim-Crow" Coach, On End of Passenger Train, Completely Demolished.
MELVILLE, La., Sept. 11—Southern "jim-crows" rules caused the death of an unidentified man and injury to nearly a score of passengers here last week, when a freight train ran into the rear end of a Texas and Pacific passenger train near here, it is alleged, damaging one coach and wrecking several freight cars.
The coach in the car was the nated "jim-crow" car, in which nothing but Negroes were riding.
Many of the injured were hurt when they jumped from windows in the rear coach following the crash. They were brought here for emergency treatment and later continued on their way.

Fight Graham At Lott Carey Convention
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 11 The Lott Cray Baptist Foreign Missionary Society held its 27th annual meeting here last week at the Second Baptist church. The organization represents 100,000 church members in all parts of the United States. The reports of the various officers showed that remarkable progress had been made in missionary work. During the sessions considerable discussion was brought up by certain ministers regarding Dr. A. A. Graham's administration secretary. No serious charges were brought against the minister, nor was he accused of mismanagement. The contentions were probably based on a desire of some ministers to add more clergy to the ministry held by Dr. Graham if sentiment could be worked up against him sufficiently.

"NEW YORK, Sept. 11—If “Shut-
fle Along” set New York's feet danc-
iuging to a dozen jazz-hits, “The
Ghocelate “Dandies,” Sissle and
Blake's latest. contribution to
Broadway musical melange of the
higher-class variety, will eo still
further. New York’ never has seen
a colored show to compare with the
Uperoaring revue whieh, the, dusks
Van and Schenck brought to the Co-
lonial Theater last Monday night.
With the. thermometer soaring up-
ward and the big company of near-
ly 100 singers and dancers working
as though they just had to exer-
cise or freeze the new show sped
along without an interruption in its
pace.
“If the Sones, of “Shuffle Along”
were hummed all over this country
and played abroad, ‘‘Slave of Love.”
the melody theme piece should
prove even more popular, and such
numbers as_ "D-i-x-i-c,” “Manda,”
the lovely “Thinking of Me” and
“Jasamine Lane” will score with
the man who whistles as he goes
along. Eubie Blake, with his~dex-
terous fingers, has turned out melo-
dies which fit every sort of theme
and which will keep dancing feet
lstepping for a year to come.
“The Chocolate Dandies” was far
and away ahead of “Shuffle Along”
in every respect, and despite the
fact that the production was done
in the most elaborate fashion as to
costumes and sets, B. C. Whitney,
the producer, wisely kept all of the
native humor and clever touches in
the new production, witich were re-
sponsible for the success of the
other piece.
We have rarely seen any_com-
pany work as hard as does) the
appy ensemble-at the Colonial. Te
begin with, even the orchestra, di-
rected by Blake, uses no sheet. ‘mu:
sic, knowing every quirk of the
score by heart. From the very
first scene, when Amanda Ran-
dolph, with a gorgeous voice, sang
“Mammy's Choe’late Cullud Chile”
until a remarkable cornetist played
fan encore to the finals, the show
traveled at breakneck pace.
While the show lacks a Florence
Mills, it has a comedian in Johnny
Hudgins that is the nearest thing
to Bert Williams we ever saw. The
show was staged by Julian Mitch-
ell, of many Broadway productions,
and the chorus did everything from
acrobatics: to ensemble work which
compares well with the precision of
John Tiller’s minions. There is
Blenty of good, clean comedy, good
jancing, remarkable music and
more pep in two hours. than any
show has brought to this town in
many, many months.

ther gifts from other personages in
Among Americans returning from
abroad recently there have been two
small groups of Negroes who have
achieved successes which havo at-
‘tracted much favorable attention in
Europe. Roland Hayes, the “tenor,
and his accompanist, William Law-
rence, hed the experience of giving
a cancert in Cologne when feeling
in Germany over the French use of
her Colonial troops on the Rhine
Yas still strong. ‘Their first concert
on German soil was in Berlin, Pro-
tests were made to the American
Ambassador against the “imperti-
nence” of Negroes appearing in pub-
lic and against an equally serious
ese majeste in offering the tunes
‘of Georzia cotton pickers to music-
ally correct Berlin. .
Hayes sanig'a group of spirituals,
and also sang in their own. lan-
guages the famous songs of Eng-
land, France, Italy and Germany,
throwing in one song in Japanese
for good meastre. This was not the
sort of thing that had been expect-
ed, and it led to the engagement in
Cologne and one in Frankfort, and
to return concerts in all three Ger-
man efties later in the season.Hayes
has had to refuse offers for forty
German engagements next season.
The other group is the Fisk Uni-
versity Jubilee Singers—four mtn
and a woman—who are carrying on
the tradition established | by _ the
Joriginal band of Fisk Jubilee. Sing-
ers who sang before Queen Sticto-
ria and the court circles of" Eu-
rope in the early seventies and gave
the Negro spirituals to the musical
world.
‘The Fisk Jubilee Singers had be-
come an indistinct tradition when
the present group faced their first
\English autience Inst June. The
Daily ‘Telegraph's comment on the
result berins: “The occasions are
indecd few and far between when
onz may truthfully describe an art-
ist, or a group of artists, as being
in “comparable; the visit) of these
wonderful singers has given the
critic, that opportunity and justifiea-
tion." In praising the recital the
London Era pays incidental tribute
to the capacity of the ‘Negro spirit-
ual to survive interpretation. It
says: “We have had all sorts of
‘interpretations’ of these traditional
songs, ranging from the flippant to
the serious, and we have accepted
them all with: more or less, open
arms. But singers will’ find us

“Roland Hayes to Open American
| Tour in Brooklyn
| After a month's rest, Roland
Hayes will start on an Americar
tour which will take him from
const to coast and already includes
seventy-five engagements. His first
concert in’ New York will-be in the
‘Academy of Music, Brooklyn, or
Sunday afternoon, Oct. 12, when he
will appear under the auspices o!
the Brooklyn Urban League.
“Althavgh this late season was
my fifth European tour,” sdid Mr
Hayes, “it was my first experienc:
in Getmany. Early in the spring
an engagement was made for Ber
Tin, and I looked forward with in
terest to visiting the political and
musical center of Germany. Ther
I was told that a group of Germans
had protested to the American Am
bassador against a Negro daring tc
make a public appearance in a coun
try which was being outraged bs
the presence of Colona syops on
the Rhine, and there wag*also th
charge that I was debasing music
by singing the tunes of Georgia cot

“However, I decided to keep my
engagement. The concert hall wa:
crowded and I gave & program with
an international savoreoli English

"Of course, the Africans try to imitate the Americans," Mrs. Pearson said, taking up the story. "Our hats especially fascinated them and they created imitations made from grass. I have worn one and will say they are fairly good. Some few Africans use knives and forks in imitations of the Americans, but the majority just use their fingers." The Pearsonse are visiting at the home of Mrs. Pearson's mother and will return to Africa some time next year. They have one small daughter, Elda, who was born in Africa. Mrs. Pearson was the first white woman to cross the Quando River in Africa.
Statistics recently published put the total number of telephones in use at 22,937,000, this figure being made up as follows: America, 18,840,000; Europe, 5,903,000; Asia, 683,000; Australasia, 339,000; and Africa, 122,000.

The Soap Box In Atlantic City (By "I Writem")
The Soap Box In Atlantic City (By "I Writem")
The day the Soap Box in Atlantic City was a warm one, that is, if often-mopped perspiring faces are to be taken as an indication of the fact. The "Soaps" arrived cloaked in full glory and paraded their august solves to the strains of Stryker's band amid the welcoming cheeks of the enthusiastic populace.
The Soap Box performance for 1924 beggars description. Jay Faurfax, beloved individually and collectively, captivated the vast audience in his impersonation of "Miss Babbitt," as did petite "Henny" Pecks in "Somebody Stole My Gal." We cannot forget Dandy Jim Howard in Uncle Eph, and Bish Turner in Aunt Mirandy, George Graham, the comedian, came in for a big share of the applause, also. Joe Mackey and Al Budd scored homers in their singing, and Lou Booker simply transported his audience far beyond the realm of castesty joy in "Step, She Step," and his Charleston boy, oh my! Bill Bailey's portrayal of the camel walk (2) would make Barnum's camels shift their humus in appreciation.
Now the finale—the pageant. Sam Reading, already more than half famous as a composer, reached the name of perfection on the memorable 29th. Arch Haines, secretary of the club, Soaps and many other organizations, was Uncle Sam. You should have heard that Slim "Brown" wade through 'the deep maizes of Sam Reading's masterpiece. It would have overpaid the most fastidious. Rumor and some others say this same Arthur Haines is headed to the West. Of course, he nearly couldn't own his business. Nuf Ced.
Nearly forgot Arthur Birchett, impressario and conductor of the Soaps' music, wields a mean baton, b. after listening to the ten minutes of opera we know Birchett deserves great praise. Some show and some time.

'Tis the age of high civilization, cries the poet and the psychologist and the prophet. And we beings tuzn and smile and wonder if we are civilized. Way back, many years ago, the beating of the tum-tim set a group c half-naked natives to twisting and turning their bodies in mad response. And today—the clamor of a jazz band sets a mass of ultramodernists to dancing, with body and with soul.
Women have bobbed their hair and rolled their socks, donned earrings and necklace, their clothes are fewer, their desires are more intense. Men want faster horses, pretier women, redder roses, nothing that is not red hot and fiery, could appeal to man of today. It is the age of speed and our minds are just a bit unsteady, just a bit in a whirl, when we take desperate chances and forget conventions. And forgetting conventions, we become just a wee bit barbarian, just a we bit uncivilized. The age of superb civilization, after all, is mixed with many pre-historic desires.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 11

Brunswick avenue, near 85th street,
was arrested and placed in the 7th
and Carpenter streets police station
charged with stabbing Jennie Kovitsky in her father's fish store,

An argument is said to have started over the price of some fish that Lewis had just purchased. Jennie Kovitsky, her three sisters, a brother and her father were trying to convince the man that his bill was thirty cents. Lewis finally became so incensed that he picked up a knife and slashed the nearest person to him, which happened to be Jennie. Mr. Kovitsky ran to the street and his cries soon attracted a crowd. The Burk brothers, whose father conducts a pawn shop nearby, grabbed revolvers and ran after the prisoner. They captured him off the array colored people who attempted to release Lewis. The Burk boys were also rested by the police, charged with inciting to riot, and held by Magistrate O'Brien. They were later released by the Magistrate and commended for capturing the man.
Miss Kovitsky was taken to the Howard hospital, where several stitches were necessary to close her wounds. Lewis was held under $800 bail for court.

Last week the Board of Elections ruled the petitions of Lavelle out, but he took the matter to the Supreme Court Justice Proskauer ruled that he had been rumored to be accused of law, and therefore were illegal.

the children. When he had gone fox-hunting, unaware of the birth off of them he learned that he was the father of triplets.
Meanwhile hospital authorities are stumped. They do not know what to do with the children, and have made an appeal to any person willing to care for them.
which naturally arouses the jealousy of the American whites, who may have been less fortunate in amassing worldly goods.
Leading American Negroes have begun to advise: the President and government officials of the gross exaggeration of the membership claimed by the Garvey movement. It is claimed by the Garvey movement less than 40,000 members, while some claim that it may probably reach a total membership of 400,000 composed members of the ignorant elements of the race United in various localities throughout United States, mostly by unnaturalized West Indian Negroes, of which Garvey is said to be one.

Let There Be Health
BY DE. B. S. HERBEN
of the New York
Tuberculosis Association
How to Increase Your Weight
L. S. is too thin. Her normal weight is 137 pounds and she weighs only 118 pounds. She says "tell me how to gain weight." The answer may help you.
First, she warns that there is no diseased condition hindering you from getting the benefit from the food you eat. i. e., diseased teeth, tonsils, anemia, beginning—or as we call it—incipient tuberculosis. Have a physical examination and your doctor does not help you to put on weight.
Then eat everything you need to eat, regardless of appetite; avoid irritation and nervous excitement; get no loss than eight hours sleep a night, and nine or more if possible; only light forms, such as leisurely walking.
If you are a "stick of milk" as a drink, us it in every other conceivable way so that you get at least one quart a day, in chocolate drinks (chocolate malted milk made at the fountains with syrup, a cream, or a delicious fattening), in cream sauces, or cereal, etc. Use cream if you can whenever possible on cereals, or with potatoes, ice cream, etc. Buttermilk would be good for you. Use sweet fruit juices with sugar added, twice times a day, a fruit juice or a milk oil, floated upon two tablespoonsful of grape juice. (Cod liver oil would be excellent for you). Add raw and cooked eggs to your ordinary diet in which I hope vegetables play a big part; cat a little more than you like, meals and before going to hed get a cup of hot chocolate or a glass of cold fruit juice.
Here is a fattening dietary for a day as suggested for the thin woman, by Mary Swartz Rose of Columbia University:
Breakfast: pancakes, 4 medium; bacon, 1 tbsp.; egg, 1; toast, 2 alices; butter, 1 tbsp.; cream, thin 3-4 cup; sugar, 1 tbsp. (scant);
coffee, 1 cup; 10:30 a.m. m., cocoa, 4-5 cup; luncheon, corn chowder, 3-5 cup; fruit salad, 1 serving; roll, 1; butter, 1-2 tbsp.; chocolate cream, 2 tbsp.; cream, 2 tbsp.; 4 p. m. egg in orange juice (1 egg, 3 tbsp, juice, 2 tbsp. sugar); dinner, broiled steak, piece 3 in. by 1-2 in by 3-4 in; scalloped potatoes, 1 cup (scant);
buttered beets, 1-3 cup; lettuce and tomato salad, 1 salad salted almond cream, 2 filled custard, 1-2 cup; macaroons, 2.
It is unwise to remain "too thin." Your resistance to infection of all sorts is lowered.

Dear Friend,
On the 5th Anniversary of our
Establishment in business, we
have what we think we a think
a fitting celebration.
From the 6th to the 20th of
Spring we will celebrate by
combining a Spanish Carnival
with a Sale—the best in the
annals of this community. It will be
the largest because of the number
and variety of models on display,
the best, because it will be a
real bargain Sale. Each model
in this wide selection, retails for
a certain price, one glance will
prove this to you. They will be
sold at $2.50 each!
Why go down town in search
of bargains? Cecile is offering
you the best one possible. You,
our friend and customer, are
acquainted with the style and
quality of our merchandise. Your

ambition. If you have a sweet
pleasure in please, tell your friends

and bring them along.
The season's needs are many for sport and dress hats. Unless you drop in at the Cecile Millinery store, you will lose your chance of getting them when they are economical and ultra-smart.
Yours.

~ The Usual Lie
National campaigns have their vices.as. well as their vir-
tues. We can not escape some of life's inevitables. As soon
as Negroes learned that La Follette had some money to:spend
for the purpose of building up his bloc in the Senate—for that
is the extent of his ambition in this campaign—they immedi-
ately began to announce certain “goings over” to La Follette in
various districts. se
Of course, it means nothing to “‘go over" unless the indi-
vidual “going” has somethifig to carry along. As a result we
are reading of organizations of 10,000 members, or even 100,-
000 members “going over” to La Follette or to Davis. ‘The nu-
merical‘strength of the organizations in some places is amus-
ing. For example, when we read that an organization in Har-
lem, New York City, ‘has gone over” with its membership of
100,000 we are made to ask what has become of the other or-
ganizations claiming its membership to be the identical num-
ber, and made up of the identical population.
Of course, it is very easy to deceive people who do not
know. It is none the less criminal to do it, howevel; simply be-
canag thay do nyt now.
National campaigns usually create organizations. It is one
of the evils of 4 national campaigh, , It has become a habit
among Negroes who look for immediate cash to build up large
organizations in districts where there is “uncertainty,” The
uncertainty is usually created by the very ones who have such
large organizations to “carry over” to the enemy.
Negroes have advanced too far to stoop to such small
things. To charge for services already rendered, or to be ren-
dered, is not orly lawful and proper, but it is business. But to
commit highway robbery by creating organizations that never
existed until the campaign, and then exist only in the minds of
he political tradesmen, is dastardly and criminal. We are in
“the midst of a campaign, and we are confronted with the usual
Ties about’ organizations.
It has been very properly remarked that better judgment
would have dictated that at least two of the conventions which
met in Pittsburgh this year might have met elsewhere with
great advantage to the conventions as well as convenience to
Pittsburgh. Three conventions, aur largest conventions, were
too many to bring to Pittsburgh in one season.
We admit that three conventions in one season may be con-
strued as evidence of poor judgment on the part of some one.
Perhaps the whole matter represents a misunderstanding. It
is just likely that each convention was invited to Pittsburgh
without the knowledge that either of the three had been ex-
tended a similar invitation. This lack of knowledge may be
termed poor procedure, to say the least.
But the three conventions accepted the invitations, and
Pittsburgh was thrice the host for many thousands of guests.
Just how well the Masons fared in Pittsburgh had best be told
by the Masons themselves. They left a most enviable record
for decorum and general deportment, They admitted that their
stay had been a most pleasant one, and expressed the hope that
they might fila return'engagement soon, The Elks, although
a much larger body than the Masons, met in Pittsburgh under
most favorable circumstances, albeit some very definite at-
tempts were made to prevent the convention meeting as sched-
uled. The Elks went away Saying the same kind things of the
people as were said by the Masons. Every Elk was a gentle-
man, so far as records show. The police department gives the
convention a clean bill of,health on deportment and observance
of law. The Odd Fellows*follojved, and their report on Pitts-
burgh ig in keeping with those who preceded them,
. In fairness to Pittsburgh ,it should be said that its people
are hospitable, generous and thoroughly democratic. The city
as such rests amid hills too numerous to mention, but God made
the hills to suit His purpose; and He made the people among
those hills to suit His purpose. At least it must be said that not
even thee conventions exhausted the hospitality and fraternal
spirit of the Pittsburghers.
er
The Constitution and Communism
# resident Coolidge opened a deep and all-absorbing sub-
Ject when in his Lafayette address on Labor Day he made
reference to the enemies of the Constitution. The reference
could not be mistaken. It was too plain for any doubt that the
President was calling public attention to the group of Com-
munists now parading through the country under the name of
a political party. A red is a red by whatever name he may an-
swer. .
To the American-Negro the reference was very significant.
There is not a group of people in all the world so helplessly in
the minority as the American Negro. “He represents helpless-
ness in a most emphatic form. His helplessness is all the more
emphasized because he has no group representation in Con-
sress: or on the Supreme Court bench.
The only hope the American Negro has now, or will have
for the next century, lies in the possibility of an‘impartial en-
forcement of the law. The President hit upon a happy subject
for the Negro when he asked for universal support for the Su-
pveme Court and the Constitution as drafted by the fathers of
{he country. ‘The Supreme Court must be relied upon for in-
tevpretation of the Constitution. The Constitution as it stands
cannot be misunderstood as easily as it can be evaded. Indeed,

gestion of the President that it be respected more by the Ameri-
can people comes as a most timely admonition to the American
people. 7 7
The most important function of the Supreme Court’ is an
impartial interpretation of the Constitution; The Constitution
carries provisions for minorities. The Negro represents a mi-
nority—a much neglected minority.
Perhaps the utterances of the President will lead.to a
higher regard for the rights of minorities. It is hoped he will
not forget to remind those charged with law enforcement that
the Constitution is quite ample for our present needs, if its
provisions are enforced. Indeed, a little more enforcement will
make Communism impossible. The Negro, like all men, seeks
relief. He ought to find it in an impartial enforcement of the
Constitution. ©

To the Editor .
The Pittsburgh Courier,
518-Fourth avenue,
Pittsburgh. Pa.
Dear ‘Sir: ‘The Urban Leagve
was surprised to find itself receiv-
ing first page attention in your is-
Pittsburgh. Pa. x
Degr Sir—Your recent editorial
on thé stand. taken by Mr, John W.
Davis, the nest President of ‘these
United States. on the “Ku Klux
Klan” is unjust and unfair.
It is wonderful how subsidized Ne-
gro Republican papers can distort
the truth, especially when the facts
are against the “Grand Old Party.”
‘The utterance of Mr. Davis in de-
nouneing the Klan isin line with
the clean, liberal outstanding char-
acter of the man, who from. the
time of his debut’ in politics, has
always cvinged a tolerant spirit
towards our race. He is not apo:
litical opportunist, as is the political
‘accident who now temporarily’ fills
the office of President, but against
great odds, has championed. the
cause of the Negro, when a Repub-
Jican legislature, Judge Evans of
Mingo County,-W. Va.. attempted
to have a Jim ‘Crow Car Law write
ten into the Statute Books of ‘that
State, Mr. Davis took the stand of
the Negro in hand, opposed the bill
—and won, by having it sent to a
well-merited and ignominious de-
feat.
‘You state that the Democratic
Party is the Ku Klux Klan and that
in repudiating the Klan, Mr. Davis
is striking at his party.
Now let us see what recont events
have shown:
In Oklahoma the _ Democratic
Party repudiated Congressman
Howard, a Klan indorsed candidate
for U.S. Senator, and nominated
ex-Governor Walton, the bitter and
unrelenting foc of that organization.
In TAgkarsas Judge Cozart was
overwhelmingly’ defeated b= Mr.
Terral,nn Anti-Klan candidate.

sue of September sixth; it is a
healthy sign of interest on your
‘part-n-une of the very: important
philanthropic enterprises of our
people. If we could secure such
prominent mention in the press of
Pittsburgh generally, both the for-
tunes of the League and its wide
usefulness would be improved. As
‘a matter of fact, one ot the many
difficulties with which we have had
to deal is the impression firmly
held by the press (not the Negro
press) that the reading public does
not wish to hear of the activities of
‘Negroes. In all fairness, for which
your paper has a well-earned repu-
tation, I ask that this letter be given
the same prominence im your next
edition as you give the article to
which it is a reply.
We are frank to say that the Ur-
‘ban League necds money; activities
planned for and by Negro:s always
have a harder task raising funds
than similar activities conducted
tor and by white persons, At this
time many of the philanthropic ac-
tivities in this community are hav-
ing a particularly hard) time and
we, being engaged in work with Ne-
xtoes are having a harder time than
Our white friends in the field of
Philanthropic endeavor. | We even
year that many business enterprises
are not finding funds as easily as
they would like fo just at this time.
However, we do inot consider our
present poverty a good reason for
giving up ovr work, for it is just
at a time when money is hard to se-
cure in a community that the work
‘of such an organization as ours is
most needed.
‘We wish to take exception strong-
ly to your statement that the work
of the league has been confined to
too small n circle; we will briefly
indicate the scope of our work. At
the same time, however, we want
to state that we welcome an inter-
view at any time with any person
who has @ definite suggestion in
regard to the practical extension of
our. interest.
‘The work of irban League
has been far_too\gmportant to be
allowed to suffer beluse of the ne-
cessities of any particMar season or
because of any particblar person;
ity history is the history of the un-
folding and developmeht of social
work) for the Negro irf Pittsburgh.
Wher the league begay its work in
Pittsburgh, there was but four Ne-
gro social workers in this city. What
is the record today? Men.and wom-
en of our -race are doing social
work of a character equal to that
of the best white social workers in
this community; a number of indus-
trial plants retain men and. women
of our race, who look after the
needs of our people in their employ
in a most commendable manner; our
own staff of workers has cared for
our people in the morals court sev-
eral suitable lodging “for our
newcomers to the city, develop-
e1 home economies work and per-
formed many other services to our
people, and 1 think ‘we can say
without peradventure of contradic-
tion that the service which other
philanthropio agencies and institu-
tions has given‘our people is much
finer and more generous than when
wwe came into the field. .

Does that mean Michigan?
Davis is now on his western swing, with reports
reaching the cast that his speeches are falling on deaf
ears, In one section he denounces the Klan; in another
section he is warned not.to mention it. A
La Follette knows now he has no chance to Feach the
White Bouse, At Ieast he is an obstructionist, who can
only-make the election dificult by throwing it into the
House of Representatives. But from present straws
he will not run strong enough to do even that.

People of one great country or section may learn of the

the fact that it was possible to acquire wealth through

longer and ‘better films. The idea came to him while
seeing a ten cent show of one or two reels which pic-
tured life on the western plains.
Nine years of direct contact with screen stars has
enabled Mr. Goldwyn to write an interésting account of
his experience in the motion yietorg ‘world. ‘That he
has been sucessful is oBvious w! en considering the fact
feat the leery Rable used stad by the company
in which he first had stock, has no comparison with the
vast studious now used by the Goldwyn Company.
‘Through the author the public gets a glimpse be-

of the character of some of the screen celebrities, pic-
turing a human side which is not detectable by their ap-
Pearance on the screen. 5
