Only those who have had something to do with the pioneer work realize the task it has been to make good. Today the average girl of talent and personality can "go over" in a night. I wonder if we who have done the foundation work are not responsible for a greater day for the Negro stage artist." If so, I am happy. If my art hasn't been an inspiration to some ambitious youth, I would rather give it up today," and the "mother" of the Whitman aggregation smiled very sweetly and a little sadly. "I wish I had time to tell you about our little family; how we made our way up the ladder of success by shear ability and stuctuoliveness." "You were born in the North." "Don't you dare try to take me away from dear old Georgia," she laughed heartily. "I was born in Atlanta. My father was an A. M. E. minister and we began our public appearances singing jubilee songs at large churches and concert affairs." "Do you like the role of-manager." "Of course. The girls look to me for everything. I am the 'ma' of the crowd." Youth 16, and Girl Of 15 In Suicide Pact WYMORE, Neb., Sept. 18 — Impatient over the fact that they would have to wait five years before they could, under the laws of Nebraska, get married without the consent of their parents, Charles Cleary, age 16, and Bessie Nemic, 15, entered into a suicide pact that was carried out to a tragic conclusion. The bodies of the boy and girl, firmly locked in an embrace, were found in a picnic grove on Indian Creek, just south of the town, the other morning. In one of the boy's stockings was found a note which read: "Good by. Bury us side by side." The bodies were found early in the morning by the girl's mother and Mrs. A. F. Taylor, n neighbor, whom she had impressed in the search for the girl, who had not returned home the night before. The boy and the girl had each been shot through the head, and a revolver clutched, in the lad's fingers contained two empty shells. Evidently he had killed the girl first and then himself. The children were infatuated with one another beyond the usual degree at their ages. Their parents had told them they would not permit them to be married until they had reached at least eighteen, and this opposition was so determined that the two, according to evidence proffered by youthful friends, had agreed to die together. The friends whom they had told thought it was mere romantic fervor and paid no attention to their talk. Firewprks Are Used To Stop "Petting Parties" MORRISTOWN, N.

NEW YORK, Sept. 18—Notwithstanding the reports that Mr. Harry H.

In speaking to a Courier representative, Mr. Pace said: Harry H. Pace: "The defection of Mr. Lewis, of Boston as well as the recent announcement that Mrs. Alice Dunbar-Nelson had joined the party of Tillman and Vardaman, certainly should not be construed as indicative of the proposed change in the M.I.A. reports have been circulated that I had gone over to Mr. Davi- and his party, but reports are easily started, especially when the 'wish is father of the thought.' As for myself, I have too much respect for: my own political history, and I have too much regard for principle above party; and I entertain too high a regard for my personal friends to offer them the unwarranted offense of declaring for a party which offers no door of hope to my people. "The Republican ticket meets my approval, and I shall do what I can to induce my friends and associates to heed the suggestion of the Pittsburgh Courier: Rather remain with the Republican party to improve it, than try to reform the Democrats. I am for Coolidge and Dawes." Color Line Barred In Calif. Schools SACRAMENTO, Cal., Sept. 18- Colored children cannot be denied admission to the public schools of this state, Will C.

NEW OBLEANS, La., Sept. 18- An ordinance to regulate the settlement of Negroes in white neighborhoods and the whites in Negro neighborhoods, carrying out the provisions of Act 118 of 1924, was introduced last week in the Commission council. The measure prohibits issuance of building permits to a Negro desiring to build in a white neighborhood, unless he first obtains the written permission of a majority of the property holders of the opposite color in the particular neighborhood. The measure works vice versa for the whites. but merely the result of a necessity to provide for the backward children who have proven to be a hindrance to the progress of the more forward ones in the schools. This statement is charged with being, by the colored people merely a subterfuge and they point to the fact that only last year the board claimed that it was caused by the shortage of money in the board's treasury and yet the same board went forward with the plans of building a $1,500,000 school building on the west side of the city. It is admitted on all sides that the colored people have assumed a dignified and forceful attitude toward the question. They have backed up their verbal protests by filing a written protest to the board. This document is dated Dayton, Ohio, August 3, 1924. To the Board of Education of Dayton Public Schools: Hon. W. D. Blaik, president; Prof. Paul C. Stetson, superintendent; Greeting: We, the parents and representatives of that part of the citizenship of Dayton called, the "colored group," herewith assembled, arise to protest against the establishment of four rooms for colored children in the Willard district. These rooms in positive-segregation are proposed, designated, and ordained, are now assembled in the basement of what is commonly known as the Willard school. By the repeal of certain laws in 1886 and 1887 such an act as the establishment of these rooms "for colored only" became a statutory offense and rendered recourse sure and certain. In the full right of our citizenship and for the good of our Dayton school system, as well as for the welfare of all Negro children who must suffer the ignomy of such segregation and discrimination, yet because of their youth, dare not protest. We, the parents and rightful guardians of their future, insist upon the immediate distribution of these rooms as per the well established policies of district.

WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 18 — Declaring that 19-year-old Vivian Hall, who was brutally murdered last week in no way guilty of the questionable murder, which John Andrews, her clayer, accused her in his confession, relatives of the dead girl are branding the youth's statement as a malicious attempt to defame the character of the girl he foully murdered. In his statement Andrews declared that the girl had been frequenting a low type of dances hall and had been associating with "jazz hounds." This association, he cites, as the thing that drove him to distraction and ended in his murdering the girl he loved. Contrary to this charge persons who knew the girl declare that she never frequented public dances or associated with questionable characters. She was a graduate of Howard High School, where she won the Alpha Phi Alpha scholarship for high scholastic standing. She then matriculated at Howard University where, during her first term she made an enviable record in her studies and was above reproach in her college. Andrews had always been liked by the girl's family. He was deeply in love with the girl and did not want her to return to college this year. As he was not in school he felt that the girl might meet more progressive men at the University and forget him. What took place during the walk in the park before the killing is not known, but it is thought that the girl refused to consider their childhood attachm it as binding and was killed by the lover in a fit of jealousy.

Conditions the series will be played under: It will be directed, controlled and sponsored by a national commission composed of Edward Bolde) of the Hilldale club, George Robinson of the Washington Potomac, John T. Blunt and Andrew Rube Foster of the Negro National League. It was agreed between the two leagues as follows: To follow as near as possible the exact settlement of the receipts in this series as originated and now in practice in organized baseball for the past and present world series now contemplated. The players in organized baseball only participate in the first four games played. This could not be worked out among our club, as a national commission of organized baseball had created a fund to cover the operating expense of the necessary expense of traveling, room, board and such other expense as is absolutely necessary to promote such series. Both leagues decided it better to let the players share in all games played less the expenses necessary to promote such series. It was mutually agreed by both factors, East and West, that this series should be played as follows: reduced rent of park from gross receipts (games clubs have no parks available for such games). 2.

And who is this Mr. Davis of which Mr. Lewis speaks so glowingly? And from what state does this Mr. Davis hail? What is the history in the whole case? Mr. Davi. is from West Virginia. Ec boasted of is birthplace and his ancestry: when he deliv'ed his acceptance address. His father, so the record goes, in 1908, in the State Convention held at Charleston, was one of the forces' back of a proposed Jim Crow Car Law, and a party plank proposing disfranchisement of the Negro. Get the records and read them. John W. Davis and his father were delegates to this State Convention; and the father, the late John J. Davis, was chairman of the Committee on Resolutions which approved the adoption of the two planks. Mr. Davis is from this very stock. The very delegation of which Mr. Davis was a member, Harrison County, supported both resolutions. The two planks proposed, and defended after having been twice reported to the Convention floor, were: (a) Believing that the extension of the elective franchise to a race inferior in intelligence * * * was a mistake if not a crime committed by the Republican party during the reign of passion and prejudice following the Civil War, for political ends and purposes, we declare the Democratic party is in favor of amending the Constitution so as to preserve the purity of the ballot and the electorate of the State from the evil results from confrercing such violations and obligations upon those who are unfit to take the latter's importance as it affects the stability and preservation of good government. (a) We favor the enactment of a law requiring common carriers engaged in passenger traffic to furnish separate coaches or compartments for white and colored passengers. These proposed plansk were backed by the father of the candidate who is declared by Mr. Lewis to be the man who offers the "Coming Colored Citizen" liberty and freedom. Like father, like son. We ask Mr. Lewis and his co-workers, what is there in the history of the candidate himself, or in the record of his ancestry, that commends him and his policy to Negroes? So much for Mr. Davis and his father. But what of West Virginia? This state is the birthplace of Mr. John W. Davis. Ask Mr. Lewis what he once said of West Virginia. We all remember, even if Mr. Lewis has forgot, the famous Johnson case, which was tried in Boston. Mr. Lewis was attorney for Johnson. Johnson was wanted in West Virginia for crime committed there. Habeas Corpus proceedings followed as fast as Mr. Lewis could procure writs in Court. One of the arguments put up by Mr. Lewis, and it was printed in the Pittsburgh Courier, was that if Johnson was sent back from Boston into West Virginia, the people of West Virginia would not give Johnson protection, and he would be lynched. The Governor was moved by the endorsement of Lewis, and sent a Mr. Brown, a judge in Massachusetts, into West Virginia, to see whether Lewis had drawn a truthful picture of West Virginia, after ten days in the State, Mr. Brown turned to the Governor and reported. The result was that Johnson was not sent back to West Virginia. The governors of the two states passed some hot correspondence on the case. Lewis won his case on the reputation of the people of West Virginia—the white people. Now, Mr. Lewis gets mad with President Coolie and goes over to Mr. John W. Davis, whose record and the record of whose father is now to be displayed before the world, and asks Negroes to support not only Mr. Davis and his West Virginia record, but the people of West Virginia as well, and the whole party of Heffin and Watson. Negroes who will subscribe to tl; "Coming Colored Citizen" movement, will repudiate Lewis' leadership into the jaws of disfranchisement and Jim Crowism, and will say to Mr. Davis in no uncertain terms that a man is known by his companions; that Davis is no better than Heffin and Lewis is no better than Watson. Between the Republican party which has its faults, and the party of Heflin and Watson—and the sea of uncertainty into which LaFollette is soon to plunge his forces—the Negro of common sense, of vision, will remain with the Republican party to improve it, rather than fly to parties impossible of reformation. Men Face Trial For Assault On Woman LITTLE ROCK; Ark, Sept. 18. The trial of B. F. Curtis and Dell Scott, both white, on charges of attacking a Negro woman several months ago, began in First Division Circuit Court here Tuesday, before Judge Wade. The two men are charged with having attacked Miss Mayleie Richison on June 11, when she had stoned and shot her mobile phone, which was riding with her escort, Peter Poe and ordered them to get out. It is thought the defense will endeavor to show that the young white men were drunk and, therefore, not responsible for their acts; WIGS OF NATURAL HUMAN HAIR MADE TO YOUR MEASURE Can Be Combed and Dressed.

Boyd, Nashville, Tenn., secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, stated that more than a quarter of a million dollars worth of business was done during the fiscal year and over $25,000 worth of improvements made 100,000 copies of standard books and 10,000,000 copies of Sunday school periodicals printed and manufactured, 1924 close of the fiscal year. The publishing house was founded by the late R. H. Boyd and this institution has become the "Rock of Gibraltar" in denomination efforts. Henry Allen Boyd, the oldest son, succeeded his father and this was the second annual report which was received praise. One of the high-militarization sides of the work of the Publishing Board's report, connected with the religious activities, is that each employee is insured for $500 and the beneficiary of this insurance is named by the employee independent of the-National Baptist Publishing Board and yet the board pays the premium.

BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 18 — Claiming that her husband, the Rev. John Henry Brown, who claimed he married her to save her soul, had a habit of saving the souls of other women of his flock, Mrs. Georgianna Brown is seeking a divorce from him. In her petition, she claims that the minister' was too familiar with the sisters of the flock and that in addition to that, persisted in selling the furniture. In his answer, Rev. Brown denies that his relation with any member of his flock has been improper, and blames the disagreeable attitude of his spouse as the underlying cause of all the trouble. it is said, there was a letter from the Liberian government, signed by Edwin Barclay, secretary of state, granting the Garveyites permission to colonize in Liberia. The document reads as follows: June 14, 1920. Liberian Republic Sir: The President directs me to say in reply to your letter of June 8, setting forth the objects and purposes of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, that the government of Liberia, appreciating as they do the aims of your organization as outlined by you, have no hesitancy in assuring you that they will afford the association every facility legally possible in effectuating in Liberia its industrial, agricultural and business projects. I have the honor to be, Sir, Your obedient servant, L. EDWIN BARCLAY. Secretary of State. Eli Garcia, Esgr. Com. The Universal Negro Improvement Association To Liberia. This okay of the Liberian government upon the Garvey colonization movement was given four years ago. Since that time the Liberians have changed their minds and now are said to declare that no Americans under the auspices of the Garvey movement can settle in Africa. What changed the Liberian government, is said to have been a confidential report of Ell Garcia, a Garvey commissioner, sent to investigate conditions in Liberia. His secret report intended only for Mr. Garvey, fell into the hands of the government and changed the Liberian government from a friend into an enemy, it is said. The secret report is ended only for Garvey, it is alleged, declared the Liberians were lazy, wouldn't work, and were always looking for government work that was easy. The report stated also, it is said, that the Liberians could not be trusted to handle money and Garvey must be careful how he sent funds there. The report intimated that $2,000,000 a year, it is said, was being stolen from the government's revenues. phonograph stars—Syme- bling Company—use Golden look at Miss Bobby Holmes of her skin—her hair—Golden stage and screen depends your looks and you can be Work up a thick, fluffy, BROWN BEAUTY SOAP and early disappears, then wet a steam the face for a few GOLDEN BROWN BEAUTY and leave on over night, with warm water and dry BROWN BUGGE and finish with BROWN FACE POWDER— morn.

Viala, Smith, 14, 738 Pennsylvania avenue, is in the University Hospital in what attendants say is a dying condition as a result of taking washing soda and bichloride of mercury tablets in an effort to end her life Tuesday night. The taking of the bichloride tablets by the girl followed an earlier attempt to end her life which was prevented by the timely interference of Miss Mattie Stokes, a friend. Getting to herself later, she secured the poison and swallowed it. The tragedy, according to friends of the girl, ends a crimson career of a sordid relation with a man known on the avenue as "Jimmie, the Greek," whom it is said discarded the girl this week. According to Miss: Stokes, the girl became hysterically despondent Tuesday when "Jimmie" told her he would have nothing more to do with her. The Smith girl admitted, Miss Stokes said, that she loved "Simmie" and that she stated she did not care to live. It was denied that the relation between the two been in existence for nearly a year. She met the man, it is stated, when she worked for his sister at 638 W. Franklin street. She further stated that she continued to work at other places and gave the man most of the money she made. Recently he began paying attention to a white girl and another young woman living on McCullow street, and after several quarrels told her he was through with her. Although a more slip of a girl, Miss Smith gives the impression of many years of hard experiences. Attendants at the hospital say that there is a slight chance of recovery. Va. Union Univ., Now Class A, Has Many Good Advantages By Chester J. Washington RICHMOND, Va., Sept. 18 — The famous Virginia University, the pride of Sunny Virginia, is an ideally located institution of learning, which offers many unusual advantages. Since receiving its rating at the end of the last school year as being recognized by the Va. State Board of Education as a standard four-year college (which is symbolic with Class A rating given by Other states) the curriculum has advanced materially, extensive additions have been made to the faculty laboratory equipment and other embellishments about the institution. A real chance for an industrious student is offered by the institution in that anyone who is willing to work is able to help materially on his expenses by doing a few hours work each day. Good academic and preparatory courses are offered to those who need high schools in order to prepare themselves for the intensive college training. Now that Union is a co-education school, added interest is being manifested, by friends in the institution and the students of the College department of Hartshorn Memorial College, "just across the way" are enrolling for studies at Union. The appearance of the University is very impressive — beautiful, snipely Virginia Gray granite structures adorn the handsome and poacious campus; a fine athletic field and other advantages make Union a real attraction. Union has won many cherished laurels in sports, debating, scholarship and many other essentials of college life. A large number of students have enrolled for the ensuing year and a splendid and competent faculty will be on the teaching roster this term.

Book Scores Despotic Rule Of The South NEW YORK, Sept. 18. — William H. Skaggs, a white Alabaman, has just published by the Devin-Adair Company of New York, "The Southern Oligarchy," which is certain to attract considerable attention and to arouse widespread controversy. The nature of the book can be gained from its subtitle, which reads, "An Appeal in Befall of the Silent Masses of Our Country Against the Despotic Rule of the Few." The purpose of Mr. Skaggs is stated in the very first paragraph of the first chapter, where he says: "The purpose of this book is the presentation of facts relating to the policies and practices of an Oligarchy by which the Southern States of America have been ruled for more than forty years; and also a survey of the resultant evils of such policies and practices." Mr. Skaggs discusses peonage, lynching, disfranchisement, race proscription, the chain gang system, child labor, Ku Klux Klan, financial delinquencies of Southern States in repudiation of their just debts and other corrupt practices. From his own personal experience with the Ku Klux Klan, unknown facts relative to the deeds of civilization in the Southern States. These revelations will be of great interest to colored readers, although all of Mr. Skaggs' conclusions may not be agreed with. CHICAGO, Sept. 18—(By A. N. P.)—Mrs. Alice L.

To care for this vast enrollment, it was necessary to build 16 new structures, the designing of which was awarded to architects of unquestsione' ability. Paul R. Williams, a young Negro architect and former pupil at the schools, which are mixed and have 20 Negro instructors, including a principal, has been appointed by the Board of Education as architect for one of the schools to cost $84,000.

He was recently elected one of a committee of 5 to represent the So. California Chapter at the American Institute of Architects. Three national and four western architectural competitions have been won by Mr. Williams against competitors of national repute all over the United States. His most recent achievement was the offering of a design for a civic center for a western city of 35,000 inhabitants which was accepted and upon which he and his large office force are now at work on the "working drawings." All of the municipal buildings of the center are to be erected in conformity with Mr. Williams' scheme.mitted by accomplished architects throughout the country.

Morale Of Temple Is Better Under New Management Morale Of Temple Is Better Under New Management Under the careful and considerata management of Sellers M. Hall and Harry Washington, the spacious Labor Temple, well known as the scene of many hilarious festivities, basketball games, indoor carnivals and other attractions, has advanced to the place where the conduct is splendid and the morale and class of patrons has advanced greatly. It is a noticeable fact at the Temple now that everyone seems to enjoy themselves in an orderly manner, without the unpleasant occurrences which often used to mar the tranquility of an evening's entertainment at the Hill Casino. Mothers and relatives are invited to inspect the hall at any time and the management feels assured that they will be satisfied with the class in attendance and the good order maintained.

E., returned to the city this morning from Alexandria, Va., where he went to attend the funeral of his brother, Mr. George Holmes, of 412 Oronoco street, Alexandria, Va., who departed this life, Sept. 2, 1924. The funeral was from the Ebenczer Baptist church and was largely attended, Rev. S. B. Ross officiating. Knowing Mr. Holmes personally, Rev.

Crummil Lodge No. 1437, Odd Fellows, Washington, D.C., of which the deceased was a member, sent pallbearers and a committee. The floral tributes were many and beautiful. Mr. Holmes' quiet, lovable and Christian disposition had won for him many friends among both races who manifested it with their presence and words of sympathy. Mr. Holmes leaves to mourn their loss a wife, three brothers, Mr. Emanuel Holmes, of Alexandria, Va.; Mr. James Holmes, of Washington, Pa.; two sisters, Miss Margaret Holmes, of Pittsburgh, Pa., and Mrs. Lucy N.

Big Fast Backfield On Tuskegee Squad TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., Sept. 18 — Washington Field, the training ground of the Tuskeger Tigers, is the scene of plenty action these days as "Duke" Abbott, the crafty Tiger mentor, pushes his charges through the paces preparing for the opening game on October 4, when the strong Twenty-fourth Infantry eleven, invades the lair of the Tiger. Remembering the scare that the soldiers threw into the Tiger Clan last year when they held them to a 10-7 score, Coach Abbott and his staff are working overtime in the effort to get the team in condition and to perfect a group of plays for the game. Coach Abbott fumbling marred the game last season and much stress is being placed on handling the ball and in returning punts. Another indication is that the opponents of the Tigers this season will have to stop a baffling aerial attack as well as the onslaught of the big fast backfield. Much stress is being placed upon this phase of the game and is further indicated by the shifting of Robinson, a big tackle, who is an adept at receiving forward passes to left end.

Great Kickers Are Scarce In Colleges Great Kickers Are Scarce In Colleges CHICAGO' II. Sept. 18—(By A. N. P.)—With the passing of Donehy. Howard must develop a kicker to fill his shoes. It will be a difficult task because Donehy, was one of the greatest kickers of all times in colored colleges. A good kicker on a football team may decide the victory at any time. The coach who has a good kicker is fortunate because he can develop a more versatile attack than without a kicker. Myron Hurd, of Wilberforce, is probably the greatest, place kicker we have. His kicking last year was the sensation of the football critics. Coach Wille, of Ohio State University, stated last Thanksgiving after witnessing the Wilberforce-West Virginia game, that Hurd would make Britton of the University of Wisconsin anxious. In Stevenson, Coach Abbott, of Tuskegee, has a remarkable kicker, who is dangerous at any time. Stevenson should prove the sensation of the South this season! glabed above the board and recognize the rights diet, the benefits derived by manual.

Says It'S Unfair To Deny Wills A Dempsey Match James "Red" Mason, Asks Just What Has Dempsey Done to Be Called World's Greatest Heavyweight—Says He's Poorest Heavyweight and Is Afraid to Meet Wills. The following letter was received from James Mason, manager of Harry Greb: "I told you last week that Harry Wills would beat Firpo and that is what happened. Now some writers who were touting the "Wild Bull" to beat the Negro are out with stories of how easy he will be for Jack Dempsey and saying that it would be a shame to make the match. Mr. Dempsey, the man with the new nose, walked out on the fighters in the sevent round, telling every one that they were a couple of bums, and the same also boys that told the world the Wild Bull was the greatest ever battle." ever are writing that there is not a chance for the Negro fighter to beat the champion. It is these same writers that make the saps for miles to see a match as took place last week, and it is these same fellows that make a lot of fight fans lose their hard earned cash. Jack Dempsey, in my opinion, is the poorest heavyweight champion of the world that has held the title in the last 30 years. This same Dempsey won the title from Jess Willard, who had nothing but size to recommend him as a fighter, and outside of that battle what has Dempsey done to prove he is a great fighter? Yes, he fought Tommy Gibbons 15 rounds, with his hand-picked referee Jim Dougherty, won the decision. Yes, he heat the frog that perfumed frog. Carpenter, who weighed 25 pounds less and who quit cold after getting clubbed back of the neck. Yes, he beat poor Bill Brennan in 14 rounds after this same Bill in 13 rounds two years earlier. Yes, he beat poor Billy Miske up at the House of David withougherly acting to have been in a hospital. In fact the St. Paul fighter went direct there from a sick bed just to make a few dollars for his family. These are a few of the wonderful fights that handsome Dempsey has fought, and on the strength of these writers make the claim that is the time. Mr. Dempsey was at the ring-side the other night, hoping and praying that Firpo would be the winner, and when he saw that big dub's chances slipping away, he got a pain in his heart. If five years he has staineded Wills, waiting and praying that something would happen to wipe out the Negro so that he would never have to meet him. Now he will parade around again for a couple of years before meeting him. Dempsey really should have lost the fight and the championship to Firpo when he was helped back in the ring and when he stood over Firpo while he was down, but now because the Negro fighter went in and fought a scientific fight and made every round a winning one, Harry is said to be no match for the champion who wants to be a picture actor."

Sept. 18 — Detroit Stars divided honors in a doubleheader Sunday afternoon with St. Louis Stars, losing the first, 6 to 4, and coming from behind to take the afterpiece, 4 to 8. The Mound City combination got to Alexander late in the first contest and by bunching hits tallied five runs, sufficient to annex the verdict. Giant-Oriole Clash Will Be Thrilling One of the largest crowds of the season is expected on the McClintic-Marshall field in Carnegie Saturday, Sept. 20th, when the Carnegie Orioles and the fast Houts Giants engage in the first game of a series. Both teams are anxious to win the first-game. Brooks and Mason is the probable battery for Carnegie. instantial Evil ON-ER MR.HOKUM PEEL DIZZY.

It was would gore Harry and Eastern Snapshots THE HARRY WILLS WHO FOUGHT LUIS FIRPO was at least 100 per cent better than the Wills who crushed his fist against the adamantine jaw of Bartley Madden. He looked faster and more skillful than the Wills who k.o'd Fred Fulton in Newark several years ago. This was the Brown Panther's big shot and he was ready for it. Wills today is the champion bulldogger of the world and its outskirts. A bulldogger is one of the genus cowboy who is an expert at throwing and tipping a steer. It was freely predicted that the Wild Bull of the Pampas would gore Harry and toss him as far as the two dollar seats. What happened? Wills met the Argentine offensive with an impregnable defense and a counter-attack which left the Bull no chance to do anything save cover up. Firpo might as well have left his right arm on the boat for Cuba with that distractingly beautiful Bianca. Wills was not hit solidly by his opponent more than six times. Most of the punches landed on Wills as he was going away. Others he "rolled" with and still others he blocked with his forearms and gloves. Wills met the Army counter-attack which p.

Much has been written about Wills "holding and hitting." We saw Firpo try to do the same but the alert Panther had a defense for such an essay. Had the rules of the Jersey boxing commission been against it, Wills not have pursued this course. Danny Sullivan told the writer that he saw nothing done by Wills which was contrary to the letter or the spirit of the law. And the years are many since Danny entured the game so he should be competent. Wills is today the only worthy opponent for the champion and the sport world knows it. At this time Renault and Godfrey are miles below him. That worthy pair fought last week for the right to meet the Wills-Firpo winner. Redcoat Jack was the victor but we cannot imagine him clamoring for a crack at Harry. We do not presume to tell Paddy Mullins his business but the only thing which will keep Wills in form is frequent fights while he awaits for next summer and the championship. Harlem is not alone in its admiration for Harry. He is one of the most popular men who ever entered a ring. When Firpo made his appearance there was brief applause but a prolonged salvo of stamping and clapping greeted Wills. All through the battle folks were yelling for him to knock Firpo for a goal. His has been a clean life and the public appreciates it. WE SEE BY THE PAPERS THAT THERE IS to be the public's series. It is well and should mark the end of strife between east and west. Last winter we advised the money men of the game to get together. Our advice was considered imperinence. But ever and again we plant a seed which hears fruit in season. We know the merits of Hildaids but we are not competent to discuss the K. C. team, having never seen them in action. Their leading hurrier of last season has not, however, set the east on fire this year. In Winters, Ryan and Cockrell Bolden has a defensive trio which can protect a two-run lead for nine innings any day in the week and against any team. In Santop he has the brainiest catcher and most dangerous hitter in the pinch in the league. They keystone play of Warfield and Stevens is always something for the book. Judy Johnson, Baby Doll Mackey or Clint Thomas may break up a game at any time with an over-the-wall wallop. If K. C. can eliminate that combination they truly have a team.

BOW-LEGGED OTIS STARKS LOST A THRILLER to the Royals last week when Strong's boys got to him in the 13th for one run and the ball game. Jess Hubbard held the Bees to nine hits and two runs. Roy Roberts defeated the Royals the day before when he pitched his first game of the season for the Bacharachs. The fielding of Lundy and Lloyd was a feature. Bacharachs broke even with the Lincolnns, 4-1 and 1-9. Ole Judy Gans pitched the second game and yielded but four hits. He was opposed by Stringbeans Williams, another vet. J. Hennery and boys won another when Grier, of the Potomac, wild-pitched them to a 6-5 one in the ninth. Charlie Bellinger, of San Antonio, was among those who sat in at the battle. He motored east for that purpose. Old Hoss Charlie happens to be somebody. Twenty and more years ago he owned the San Antonio Black Bronchos and those boys sure could play. Among its stars were Cyclone Joe Williams, Sam Bennett, Sam Lampkins, Davie Webb and "Black Cat", a famous home run hitter. In recent years he developed such men as Bizz Mackey, Crush Holloway, McClure, Washington and Blackmon. 'ANOTHER FAN SENDS IN HIS ALL EASTERN CHOICE.

I don't think you kin get any ting there worth while now." We assured him that we had one waiting for us there. He added that he was going to the hood. Will he knock that guy block off?" On Broadway on Fifth avenue in Harlem he knocked that talk fight. Most of the voyagers in the club car over were newspapermen, offerees, managers, promoters and plain fans. The advance opinion of our Philadelphiaians was almost unanimous for Wills. Harlem was out in Lenox and Seventh avenues and each group was debating just how long Firpo would last. The exodus for Jersey began in the morning and the ferries were congested for hours with busses, taxies, metal Elizabeths, trucks and other conveyances. It was a battle in itself to try to enter the Hudson tubes at 33rd street after five o'clock Thursday. Three special trains were run to Jersey City from Philadelphia alone.

The stars of the tournament were Miss Anderson, of Sewickley, and Mr. Douglas Henry, of the Rex Racquet club of Pittsburgh. Both of these players had a hard road to travel, but succeeded in winning from the big field, Miss Anderson winning the ladies' singles and mixed doubles with her brother, and Mr. Henry winning the men's singles and men's doubles with his partner, Mr. Clarence Shelton, and were runners up in the mixed doubles with his partner, Mrs. Lina Jennings, so it is easy to see these two deserve to be the champs.

The Monarchs split even in a double header here Sunday with the American Giants of Chicago. The Giants took the first game by the score of 4 to 8.

She rushed to her room and locked her, door, cast herself on her bed, lying as if the world was strangling her, smothering her and stifling her. She gasped, clutched at her roast and tossed. She wanted to cry wanted to think, wanted to scream, it was powerless in the grip of that Louise Comstock had said. She moment she thought the girl must be mad, stark mad and thext doubt and the possibility of her words being true sent Panic into her Soul. She turned and faced the ceiling, iring wild-eyed, on through the p of the room into space. As never fore she was wishing she had a other to whom she could turn andlk. There was nothing, but deair for her. Helpless black deir. What if the words of Louise mstock were true? What if there is blood of that despised race in s veins. He surely did not look to one with a trace of Negro blood him. True he did look like a forgner. As she began to analyze the ce and features of Bennett she ould detect no trace of Negro blood him. His swarthiness, however, Half Million Dollars Worth of gave her some cause for doubt. She seemed to be caught in a tangleling net of circumstances that was gripping her more and more strongly as she became weaker and weaker. She could not cry. The situation was too appalling for tears. What could she do?. As she pondered she pictured, almost for the first time since leaving home. Mrs. Cottman as she pronounced the curse on the Lausitian family. She decided to return to Louise's room and make sure she had heard ardent and that the girl was insane. Thought of the possibility of the words being true, however, deterred her. She wrestled with the torturing situation alone. She was on the verge of insanity herself from thinking over the words. Her lips became dry and parched; her room stifling to the point of suffocation. The hours rushed by and she was still neither near relief nor able to think herself free of the situation. Along toward midnight the moon rose and along with this a slight breeze began to stir. With a sudden gust of wind a shutter at her window swung open and the beams of a soft night-shining moon streamed into the room.

As they disappeared in their place came a resolution to seek the facts as to Louise's statement from Bennet himself. She felt so sure her worries had been baseless, and the words of her schoolmate those of braving irresponsible madness, that at last sleep overcame her and she dozed into fitful dreams. The sun was high in the morning sky before she opened her eyes again. When she did, however, her worries returned. Both her heart and head began to pain intensely, maddeningly. The words of her schoolmate again burned themselves so hotly into her soul that she sickened at the thought. Doubt as to their truth and fear that they were true surged through her in alternating, waves. When she recalled the so many persons of her own district and section at home who were mulatto or nagater, and who had a trace of Negro blood in them the words of Louise seemed too painfully, torturingly true. She had never given such things a thought before. What was she to do now? She had given her pledged word, as well as her heart to this man. What if he was of Negro blood. She felt she could not bear the thought. She, in whose veins ran the proud blood of many of the historic families of her state, blood of colonists, Revolutionary blood, and the blood of the best families of the state. She wept till she became tearless and intense burning hot pains shot through her temples and eyes. All thought became maddening, She felt she could no longer endure the strain. She must know the truth. So engrossed was she in her problem that she failed to hear the rapping at her door when the maid came three times to arouse her for her classes and so that the room could be tiled up for the day. As noon approached at-last the maid became alarmed and notified Miss Gregory. The latter who had also learned of the indisposition of Louise Cogstock became alarmed lest an epidemic was about to be discovered in the school. This she dreaded and it was Bound copies "By Sanction of Law" may be secured from the publishers, the B. J.

C., the Gotham Book Mart, 128 West 45th Street, New York City, or the office of The Pittsburgh Courier. When Miss Gregory reached the room, however, Lida had returned to her former decision, which was to see Bennet and to learn the truth of the accusation from him. Her whole body was in agony; head seeming to split and eyes burning like coals of fire. Miss Gregory, quick to sense, the fact that Lida's trouble was mental, in her motherly way went over to the girl and placed an arm about her waist as she tried to comfort her. "Tell me your trouble, Dear, won't you? I'll help you," she urged. "No, you can't help me, I'm afraid. I must face this alone." Lida spoke with determination tinged with misgiving and a sense of hopelessness. The sympathetic, motherly tone, however, brought tears to the hot eyes of the girl again and she burst into a paroxysm of weeping; Miss Gregory gently pulled the head of the weeping girl to her shoulder, and the two sat on the wide divan at the side of the room, the girl weeping and sobbing heartbrokenly. "Tell me what troubles you, Child: I'll help you—Don't cry any more," Miss Gregory pleaded in a motherly way. Lida only shook her head between sobs, however, feeling that she could not confide her trouble to anyone. Her storm of grief passed after a time, and sobs ceased to shake her body as Miss Gregory's calm voice soothed. "I promised your father I would look after you like a mother, and if you continue to cry your heart out in this manner your father will blame me." At the mention of her father Lida again felt tears surge to her eyes, but bit her lip and fought them backs. After trying to persuade the girl to confide in her Miss Gregory finally gave her the answer. "Well, nothing is so bad that time will not bring forgetfulness of the pain, and if you two girls have quarrelled, since Louise is suffering as you are, then it won't be long before you will be friends again." She chanced this as a guess, having tried also without success to get the cause of her grief from Louise Comstock and falling as she had in this case, knowing that the two girls had been chums and that they both seemed stricken with the same grief cause. Even this brought no response from Louise. The latter, however, held to her secret grief and decided to wait till she could question her lover and hear the truth from his own lips. College youth knows how to provide places in anticipation of the time and the girl for those little a-tetes which so delight the young heart, and this occasion was no exception. For the dance, the big feature of this special prom week the large gymnasium floor had been transformed into a bower.

The swimming pool, adjoining the gymnasium had been boarded over and here and there little bowers had been erected into which couples be 'persuaded with but little effort, between dances, where they could, sit and chatter. The wide veranda surrounding two sides of the building on the outside, overlooking the track field had been turned into little paradises also, and it was here that Bennet had planned to have a few moments alone with Lida when she arrived. He was all expectancy and anticipation. It had become known long ago about the college, that he and Lida were engaged and his classmates as well as underclassmen were watching the romance with interest. Being one of the committee of arrangements he was unable to escort Lida to the dance but was not for the dance, so the would bring her and some of the other girls whose escorts were also on the committee. The worry with which Lida was troubled had made her rather reticent and during the rid, to the campus she was silent while her companions chattered and laughed. Her large eyes seemed to have become larger and more blue, her face was pale with a radiance that was almost evanescent. Bennet was on the steps of the gymnasium waiting when the cab arrived and the girl's were aided to alight. As she stepped from the cab Lida's heart seemed as if it would choke her with its loud beating. In his evening dress, as he rushed down the steps to meet her, he seemed to her like a Toman deity, sooy in her presence radiating from his face, the delight of his love showing in his eyes. Her own eyes drooped and for a moment her face flushed as the call of her heart pushed back the evil dreams that had been torturing her for the past few days. She trembled and went weak for a moment, seeming about to sink to her knees. Bennet's touch revived her strength, however, and her arm rested in his hand as he aided her up the steps and piloted her to the reception room. A dozen eager vouths sought dances with her, but all were refused though so gently that none felt hurt. As she returned to the dance hall Bennet noted 'ie lines of worry and the darkly circled eyes which drooped and did not meet his in the frank comrady way that had been customary. "What's the trouble? he asked, gently trying to puzzle out the attitude. For reply she clung heavily to his arm and said: SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20 Season of ING ICES marx ORDINARY intent to keep our fully large busi- MARK OUR £50 £50 £50 er 25th Anniversary Special Men's Fall Soft Hats $1.95 ```markdown ``` I want to be alone—with—I want to ask you something." The seriousness of her tone struck wonder to his soul. He led the way it to the open air to the balcony, which he had chosen as his particular trysting spot. As Lida saw the spot and noted that it adjoined several similar ones, she whispered: "Not there—not there—I want to be alone with you, where we can talk alone." Without a word they descended the stairs, leading to the track field and started to walk along the cinder path used by the sprinters. The scene was dark except for the lights shining from the brilliantly lighted dance hall which they had left and the electric lights from the street corners some distance away, on corners of the quadrangle. Having noted the seriousness of the girl in her whispered request Truman waited for her to begin speaking and, wondered. Lida was at a loss how to begin the subject, though the question seemed to be burning at the end of her tongue. When they had nearly reached the corner of the field in which the track for sprinters started she halted, her arm still, resting on that of her escort. Truman stood facing her as she almost clung pitifully to him. As they stood, suddenly her head dropped and she began to sob softly. Her anguish communicated itself to him. "Lida, Mine, what's troubling you," he asked, a world of tenderness in his voice. For reply she sobbed all the harder. He pleaded to be told her trouble. At last all her grief seemed spent and she looked up. "Truman, I love you, and I don't want to hurt you. I trust you and and have trusted you with my life. I—I—I—don't know what to do." She bursted into a fit of passionate weeping again. All the love of her heart seemed to go to this man and she wanted him as she had wanted nothing else in the world. Fear to lose him if she asked the question and he became offender, rivalled a fear that the words she wished not to hear might be spoken. "I don't know what to do" she sobbed again. "You'll not hurt me do, unless you persist in weeping and not telling me what your trouble is. Nothing can hurt me so long as I have your love. Tell me what the matter is." For answer she reached up and gently caressed his cheeks with both hands, much as a mother soothes the child she loves. At last she mustered the courage she sought.

If the Electoral College fails to elect, the House of Representatives may do so. This has occurred twice: in 1800, when Jefferson; was chosen in 1840, Carson Burr, and in 1824, when John Cayey Adams was elected, although he, too, and fewer popular and electoral candidates had Andrew Jackson. The present house divided between the parties that it would almost certainly get into a deadlock and elect no one. 4. If the House falls to elect, the Vice President, who will have been elected by the Senate, become President and take over the outcome of the present situation, although it has never happened before. In 1886 a candidate had a majority of electoral votes for Vice President, and the Senate had to elect one—in 1887, a year later, however, the President—Van Buren—had already been elected. 5.

Under the existing system this is most unlikely. as well as the two Farmer-Lab members and two Democrats. Politicians have to think of everything. In making up their slates for members of the Electoral College, therefore, they have this year done their best to find safe men and woman, who can be depended upon not to use their own heads. They do not want electors who might skip the party collar and decide to choose their own President. Senator Norris, an authority on the Constitution, says: "Nothing binds a Presidential elector to vote for any particular candidate, save his honor." Points of honor have been waived in politics before this. It might be that a few electors in one or the other party would try to take things into their own hands. If they were to take a majority in the college, it will be known within forty-eight hours after the election, and many weeks before the meeting of the college. It will also be evident that if the election is thrown into the House and Senate, the so-called radicals will hold the balance of power and will be in a position to dictate terms to either of the old parties. Some of conservatives among the elector might be able to win two votes (as they interpret evils) and throw their strength to the opposite party rather than give La Follette and his followers the whip hand. Such action would be difficult, because the college does not meet as a whole. The electors in each state meet in their home state. All meetings are held the same day, and the results of each state vote are sent to the president of the Senate at Washington. Any plan to depart the state requires a joint morality for one candidate or the other in spite of the popular vote, would have to be arranged in advance, and very carefully arranged. It is a safe guess that the hand-picked members of the Electoral College will show no college spirit. They will not fancy themselves as President makers. They are not that kind of folks. And so the election, if there is no manpower, will be thrown into the house of Representatives. There it would meet a deadlock and this deadlock might last indefinitely. Under the Constitution, the House in electing the President must vote by States, not by individual members. The representation from each state has one vote. New York with its forty-three representatives has no more power than Nevada with its one member. To be elected a candidate must have the vote of at least twenty-five of the forty-eight state groups. Under the Republicans nor the Democrats can scrape together a majority of the states. There are five states whose representatives are equally divided between the two parties—Maryland, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire and New Jersey. The other forty-three states line up as follows: Republican, 23. Republican, 20. Democrats, 20. Furthermore, of the twenty-three states listed as Republican, Wisconsin is controlled by La Follette and he has a strong hold on the Minnesota and South Dakota delegations also. If the Republicans showed signs of getting a majority by winning over some of the eventy divided states, La Follette could throw his states to the other side, and so preserve the deadlock to two older parties would swing to La Follette. And a compromise candidate would be impossible, because the Constitution restricts the choice in the House to "the three candidates having the highest votes in the Electoral College." These three will, of course, be Coolidge, Davis and La Follette. The House, therefore, would stay deadlocked until adjournment on March 4th, unless some Democratic states would elect a Republican states to Davis, in order to keep the President from going by default to the Vice President. Meanwhile the Vice President would be elected by the Senate. For if the Electoral College had failed to give a majority to any candidate for President, it would probably have failed also to elect a Vice President. Constitution puts it up to the Senate. Here the voting must be done not by States, but by individual senators. A majority of the ninety-six, or forty-nine, is necessary. Either Dawes or Bryan would probably be elected and would become. President on the fourth of March Unites the Union and the third party candidate, Wheeler, stand second in the Electoral College, he would be ruled out by the Constitution, which says that the Senate shall choose between the two leading candidates, not between the three leaders as in the House. Again, however, neither the Republican nor the Democratic can be majority. The balance of power in the Senate also rests with La Follette. Nominally there are fifty-one Republicans, but La Follette can control several of these as well as the two Farmer-Labor members and two Democrats. Of course, if La Follette's party should run second, the Democrats in the Senate would probably voice with the Progressives for Wheeler, who is a Democrat. Otherwise we should see La Follette in the course of his own candidate, who puts in his own candidate, but entirely able to determine whether Dawes or Bryan should be President. Just one thing could prevent an election in the Senate. That would be a decision by enough Senators to absent themselves or refrain from voting, to keep either candidate from getting forty-nine votes. The Constitution requires that the vice President be elected by the present and voting, but of the whole number of 95. If it should come to that, the Constitution would be at the end of its resources, and the rule of succession set up by Act. of Congress in 1886 would be to be invoked. The Secretary of State would become President—namely, Charles E. Hughes. Some authors argue that the succession act covers only cases of death or disability and does not apply to the failure to elect. Senator Kirk of Utah says that the new Senate, taking office March 4th, would have the power to sit and elect a Vice President. This assumes that the new Senate would be able to break the deadlock formed in the old Senate, in order to keep one of absurdities, to the greatest absurdity of alk. This electing, if it becomes necessary, would be done by a lame-duck Congress. The President who will lead this nation for the next four years would be chosen npt by the Congress elected this year, but Jill Biden will be elected two years ago. Scores of men who have lost the confidence of their constituents and who will be repudiated off the polls in November, would help to decide who shall go to the White House and supply the leadership for an administration in which they will be elected.

The Methodist Episcopal Church, according to its year book, gained 85,000 in its membership in 1923, more than three-fourths of the gain being in foreign lands. Since their first Bible was placed in a little hotel in Montanus, 16 years ago, the Glideons have placed 80,000 copies of the Scriptures in American hotel rooms. Of these 40,205 were placed during 1923. The census of New York City shows that there are 1,440,635 Catholics, 2,122,457 Protestants, and 2,056,956 Jews in that city. That means that 25.64 per cent of the population is Catholic, 27.8 percent is Protestant and 36.58 per cent Jewish. At the present rate of increase the Jews will soon outnumber all other religious orders.

The most significant effect of the election, therefore, may very well be, not that it puts into the Presidency a man for whom the people did not want him, may stir up a demand for an overwhelming of our election machinery. A failure of the Electoral College to function, a prolonged deadlock in the House, an undignified and disreputable scramble in the Senate, a denial of the real desires of the voters—any or all of these may lead to a strong movement for: 1. Abolition of the Electoral College and election of the President and Vice President by direct popular vote. 2. A new election system to take care of a situation in which no candidate has a majority, by such a method as a second ballot, or by proportional representation. 3. Provision that the newly elected Congress shall meet and replace the old one soon after election, instead of waiting until the following month to acquire amendments to the Constitution, and are too complicated to be discussed here. Speaking of complications, it may be remembered that Harding, not long after his election, said: "Gov. Clinton is not going to do it." He unhappily did not find it so. And it is certainly true that under our American system the elections which set up our government are not simple things, but extremely complex and quite likely to turn out different than the sovereign voter intends.

The show comes here direct from a long run in Chicago, where originally booked to play a’ one-week stand, public approval forced the company to re- main.in the city for four weeks, ‘A Show of Stars ‘The company can truly be ternied a “show of stars.” First on the program is: pretty Bernice ~Ellis, pretty prima: donna, affectionately termed the “Oklahoma | Songbird.” ‘Then there is “Baby Alice” Whit- man, known ‘everywhere. as the greatest dancer of her age. Alice Writmua has beon the target. of many attractive offers from. the bigger shows on the road, but Tam- ily pride and a sense of duty have kept her with the company. “Miss Essie Whitman is @ contral- to, doing dramatic. bits unexcelled, while “Bert” Whitman, in the role of a male impersonator deluxe, stops the show nightly,. wherever she appears. “Creole Mike” with his talking clarinet, Sambo Jenkins, an origin- al “funny man,” a jazz band of pieces, who double on the stage and in the pit, and a chorus of ten pret- ty lagsies, completes the show—al- most. Five-Year-Old Wonder But the feature of the entire show js little Albert Palmer Whit- man, the: youthful wonder. “Said to be a Jackie Coogan. on the stage, with all the mannerisms of a man twenty years his senior, the youth- ful stage star has been repeatedly called the greatest singer and dancer of’ modern times. In com- menting on the youth and the show, the Beamont, Tex., Enterprise spoke as follows: “There's a child dancer with the show that’s absolutely a wonder. ‘And the prima donna has a wonder- ful voiee, the equal of any white voice that has come along through Beaumont, this season. Mabel Whit- man heads the company. Sho is a marvelous dancer, and {s, incident- ally, the mother of the boy in the company. The father was known as the greatest Negro dancer in, the country before his death a short time ago.” , The “Inside” Story And behind the show, which has been heralded everywhere is a spon- tancous hit, is a tale of struggle, of work and toil, and the efforts of an older sister to protect the younger girls in the family from the rough spots of the world, which carries with it a world of pathos and indis- putable evidence of the age-old le- gion that success is nothing more than a succession of failures.. Left destitute in 1901 through the death of their father, the Rev. A. A. A.

YOUNG, Resolution Of Citizens Republican Club As They Endorsed Calvin Coolidge PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 18—The following is the resolution of the Citizens Republican Club as they endorsed President Coolidge— Where as: Approximately four decades ago, the founders of this Organization possessed of that keenness of discernment, and a gift of provision, which enabled them to visualize the future of political activity and aspiration among our group; decided that within the Republican party, from which had come all the best that the entire nation had enjoyed, those of our group would find the very broadest, deepest and highest of security under the law; it was written as the initial step-stone to membership that any male person of good moral character between the ages of twenty one and fifty years who believes in the principles of the Republican Party may be eligible to membership. And, whereas: In season and out, for weal or woe, we their heirs in law, as an organization, have firmly espoused and held to those principles, even until now. Therefore, be it resolved: That especially at such a moment as when just as potently as four years prior to the birth of this splendid organization of ours, three grave questions confront us and the Nation, now as then; First: Shall the party that saved this country rule it? Shall the party that saved the old flag hold it? Former White Cop Locked Up for Beating Colored One PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 18—When Police Harriidy identified Lewis Downey, a former white policeman and constable, as the man who kicked him and with others' beat him, Downey was locked up at the Seventh and Carpenter streets' police station. Downey has long been a terror to the police, both as a policeman and later as a constable. He lives on Webster street near Broad. Policeman Harriyd tackled a crowd of white crap shooters on complaint of residents of the neighborhood. Ind-fending himself the fired his revolver several times, but struck no one. Two policemen, Lukens and McDevitt, came to his rescue, but were only able to capture one of the crap shooters. It was for the purpose of demanding the release of the prisoner that Downey entered the station-house. Lieutenant Gill recognized him and detained him until the battered and bruised Policeman Harriyd could be brought in. He positively identified Downey as the ringleader of the crowd, so the lieutenant immediately locked him up. Man Sentenced For Defrauding Stores PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 18—William A. Jackson, an itinerant preacher, was sentenced to a year, and a day in the Federal Penitentiary by Federal Judge Thomas. Mr. Jackson pleaded guilty to passing $1 bills raised to $5 on small storekeepers throughout the city. According to William F. Haughton, chief of the United States Secret Service here, Jackson says he is a half-breed Indian from Muskogee, Okla. When Jackson finishes the sentence he will be taken back to Kansas City to serve eight years of a ten-year sentence for a similar offense. DUOUESNE, PA. Mr. M. D.

Third: Shall the party that endeavored to destroy this country, the Party that said that this is not a nation, it is a federacy? Shall such a party rule? Be it resolved, we repeat, that in such a moment as this, firmly rededicating and subscribing ourselves to the principles of the Republican Party, however, much at times our leaders may have deviated therefrom; believing as we firmly do and full that ultimately, the Party must and will re-affirm and live up to its fundamental precepts; Therefore, be it firmly resolved; that the Citizens' Republican Club endorse the Candidacy of Calvin Coolidge and Charles G. Dawes for president and vice president of the United States and all other candidates upon the Republican ticker, whose written or spoken word and act, does not run counter to and at variance with the best interests of the colored group throughout the nation.

Head Nurse Refuses Aid To Waitress Head Nurse Refuses Aid To Waitress PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 18—Ruth Minton, 14 years old, of 128 North 54th street, was sent by the B. Jos. Daugherty employment agency to work as a waitress at the Rush Hospital for Consumptives at Malvern. This hospital is situated eight miles from the railroad station, so that to reach it one must use a bus. Ruth was to receive forty dollars a month and meals and the bus to take her back and forth as that was the only way to get there. One week after she was hired she was taken ill with pains in her stomach. Mrs. Georgia Montague, who was hired as chef cook about the same time, found her in' the kitchen doubled up on the floor. When dinner was not served on time the head nurse came out to see what the trouble was. Finding Mrs. Montague trying to relieve the sufferings of the young girl, the nurse said, "What do you mean by not having dinner on the table?" Mrs. Montague replied, "Ruth is ill with cramps and I am afraid we will have to put her to bed." The nurse then said, "She will not go to bed in this hospital. She was hired to work and not to get sick." She then told Ruth that she must serve the dinner. The young girl made an effort and got as far as the dining room when she fell to the floor. The nurse then said she could either work or quit. Mrs. Montague suggested that medicine be given Ruth and perhaps she could then go on with her work. Medicine was refused in no uncertain words. Mrs. Montague then said it was a very mean person who would refuse medicine to one in pain. At this remark the nurse became enraged and made answer to the cook, "Now I am not going to take any back talk from niggers!" Mrs. Montague said she would then quit and take the child home if they would call the bus. This request, too, the nurse saw fit to refuse, telling her she would get no bus there. So Mrs. Montague walked the eight miles to the railroad station, carrying a suit case and bundle which contained the clothes of the woman and girl, and assisting Ruth as best she could. Before the station was reached Ruth is said to have fallen at least twelve times. In the mean time, the bus, which had been standing in front of the door when they left the hospital, passed them with the head nurse as a passenger. She looked at them with scorn. The bus again passed them on its return trip, the driver offering no assistance. Little Miss Minton is now very ill at her home. The case has been given to Attorney Raymond Page Alexander, who will take action against the hospital. TYRONE, PA. Kidney,Bladder & Urinary troubles yield to Chef Bladder, a medical treatment.

It was a wonderful prize fight full of all the thrills that come when two men enter a ring. The keen anticipation that preceded the combat was almost as marvelous as the realization. Wills was the winner. He stands as the Brown Panther, the hero of the day in the world of sport. And there is something in the fact that all hearts turned to Wills, and that most bets were made in favor of the bronze pigillist with the unassuming and retiring manner. The wave of enthusiasm was widespread towards Harry Wills; from the day that it was promised the sporting world that he would meet Firpo in combat. Everywhere the sentiment of the people reached out for the victor. There's no use talking, Firpo was whipped, defeated in spirit, long before that twelve-round bout was at a close. Wills stepped out of the ring, high in spirit and physically unhurt. The goodwill of the folk does count—its beter to have them for you than against you. Sentiment has a peculiar psychological effect upon we begins, although perhaps we are not always conscious of it. An undercurrent of enthusiasm surely helps a man—it help! Wills to enter the battle, it helped him to win the fight. So if a man is at the desk, behind the wheel of a locomotive, on the stage, in society or battling in Thirty Acres, sentiment counts and has its own way of influencing life's decision.

INDO Professor of African Science STUDIO:—314 W. 133rd ST., NEW YORK CITY, N. Y. Phone Bradhurst 7538 Hours 10:00 A. M. to 11 P. M. Candida light. A real leg fire blasting and crackling on the hearth. A comfortable place among the cushions. A coup of the Arabian nights. Who would dream that there were problems in the world an yet. A old tale of the poor fellow who took the Old Man of the Sea upon his shoulders and then could not rid himself of his burden, reminds me of people who let themselves get too fat. What a burden too much flesh can be and once having become overweight, how difficult it seems to be for people to rid themselves of the excess! They are uncomfortable; they are not able to indulge in all the jolly active sports that slender people enjoy; they pay more for cosmetics! else they about their looks! Then, as though this were not bad enough, they are more susceptible to various diseases and the insurance companies consider them but "fair to poor" rises! If you have a tendency to put on weight, the only way to prevent yourself from becoming too much overweight, is to deny your rich foods and to cut down on the amount of all food which you have been allowing yourself. If you inherit a tendency to become overweight, watch yourself with exceeding care. I have a theory that frequently "inherited fat" is an excuse rather than a reason! I think that the similarity of rich diets passed on from generation to generation has a great deal to do with this inheritance business. Lack of discipline, by the mother and the individual, is an important factor. Unless there be a disease, presure overweight usually means self-discipline. Therefore, keep track of your weight; bring it to normal and then keep it there. Balance your intake of food with your output of energy. EAT A LITTLE LESS THAN YOU DESIRE; NO RICH and fat-producing foods. Reduce the total number of calories you have been getting. Let me eat more of health, however. Here is a sample dietary, taken from "Feeding the Family," for a day, for a person who is overweight: BREAKFAST: Apple, 1 medium; egg, 1; toast, 1 slice; coffee, 1 cup; skim milk, 1½ tbsp; 10:30 a.m. mouflon, one-half cup; water cracker, 1. LUNCHON: Lean cold, roast beef, medium serving; rye bread, 2 thin slices; lettuce and cottage cheese salad (lettuce, ad libitum, cheese, 2½ tbsp, French dressing, one-half tbsp). 10:30 a.m. mouflon, one-half cup; cracker, 1. DINER: Boiled cod with lemon, large serving; boiled potato, one-half. medium; cauliflower (plain) large serving; butter, 1 tsp, scant watercress and egg salad (watercress, ad libitum, egg, 1, french dressing one-half tbsp, orange, one-half tbsp, blue coffee, 10:30 p. m. hot skim milk, one-half cup. Don't weigh yourself down with unnecessary fat. The time to reduce is when you first begin to take on weight!

WhiteSlaves In S.Africa Seem Happy CAPETOWN - West Coast Africa, Sept. 18- Some details are now available to add to the meager report of a group of white men and women held in slavery by a Negro tribe in the heart of South Africa, which officially caused world-wide comment. The discovery of this extraordinary situation was made by a scientific expedition sent out to seek the source of plagues of locusts. Why They Remain White How, therefore, have maintained purity of race in spite of their subjection for fully two generations, is purely a matter of theory, but is believed to be explained by the only parallel case on record. This is the small body of Caucasians held in Slovenia and maintained purity of race only because the yellow Mongolian natives held themselves aloof. A similar attitude of superiority may account for the retention of white skins and Caucasian characteristics by the white slaves of Af Scientists Meet Natlves The scientists met the natives and were more surprised by certain accomplishments of the chief and other members of the tribe, than they had been by the well developed and civilized appearance of the town. Imagine the emphasis that was given to their astonishment when they discovered that this chief spoke English fluently, and that he, his wife, and the natives were dressed in clothes modeled after the late European styles. Various other evidences of civilization were apparent upon every hand, such as a complete absence of exposure of the upper bodies of the women. Whites Serve Breakfast The scientists arrived in the evening, and after being fed, were taken to huts astonishingly clean and comfortable. But the next morning they received their biggest surprise, when they found that their breakfast was served to them by white men and women. According to the scientist who reported the story, these people "do not know that there is anything tragic about their situation, and work willingly, and well, treating the Negroes with respect and themselves being treated with kindness." Contrary to the reports oftimes current in the South in pre-Civil War days, there is nothing of the Negroes and the whites in between the two races. It is more the attitude of servants, getting some small remuneration for what they do. Stabs Girl He Found Walking With Rival BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 18. — Driven by a surge of jealousy, Oden B.

Will the National Association Explain We have the information from reliable sources that the Na- tional Association, at a recent meeting of its Board of Direc- tors, refused to go on record as supporting either of the parties or candidates now before the people. It is reported ‘that the ac- tion taken at the board meeting amounts to silence on all parties and candidates. 2 * 7 For some time, the Aeiro Press has been receiving and carrying, free of-charge, voliminous releases from the National Association. Among;the many things proposed was a candidate for Congress from some district where the Negro vote is a fac- tor. The association has.urged such a step as one of the means of lending direct aid.to its own movement to have some kind of ti-lynching measure enacted into law. Even at the meeting ‘Yr Philadelphia, which is not yet too far removed to be forgotten entirely, the association issued what isynow termed an “utter- ance” on the political situation in this Country. We recall the tri-pod ‘attitude assumed in that “utteratice,” and almost the wile country was unanimous in nominating the “utterance” a jost-unhappy, if not unwise, statement; At the time of the “utterance” the association was very ‘active in polities, and was urging a Negro candidate for Congress, Indeed, the ‘efficient secretary of the association was favorably mentioned as the can- -didatg from the Twenty-first district of Nese. York. E * The recent, action of the board, refusing to support either party. or either candidate, appears as a surrender of ideals, to say the least, and, if not ideals, certainly it is an open abandon- ment of ambition. i | It is not a display of courage to surrender an ideal. -If the association ever thought a Neges should seek a seat in Congress from ‘any district where his election is possible, it is a sad sur- render of ideals fer the board to abandon its position on the eve of a national election. Ifthe association, in espousing the elec- tion of a Negro to Congress, had in mind only the candidate of its own selection, and thé Republican organization did not con- sult the association in selecting Dr. Roberts of the Twenty-first district, New York, then the association had no ideals about the matter, but was simply self-seeking, and its Coulee may be branded as selfish ambition. “It is not criminal to abandon sel- fish ambition. e 77 4 mf the association ever desired a Negro representative in’ Congress, the Republican party has offered the association the very opportunity it has sought. Dr. Roberts of New York has the united. support of the Republican organization, with the added approyal of the National Republican Committee, to say naught of the endorsement of President Coolidge, who.took oc-' easion to say that “the door of hope” must remain opén for all men. : But the association runs away from Dr. Roberts. The ag- sociation, after the Republican party endorses a Negro for Con- gress, decides that the association is not sufficiently interested in pdlitics.even to support Dr. Roberts, or to oppose him. The hoard simply decides to keep silent as to all parties,-notwith- standing a Negro is a candidate for Congress from a district right-under the nose of the association's offices, If the board took this stand-and our information that it did take such a stand is reliable, the association ought to ex- plain its attitude. The association is forever calling upon the public for “co-operation,” and not infrequently for money. The association looks tothe people for endorsement and assistance, and the people have a right to an accounting for conduct as in- consistent as the recent“about face” of the association. _ The action of the board gives the people an excellent oppor- tunity to question the sincerity of the association when, in one breath, it espouses :a Negro for Congress, and in another it re- Tuses to support a Negro duly nominated for the place by the strongest party in the country, If the, sociation will not sup- port a Negro for Congress, and thus give Us a floor representa- tive in Congress, then the association leaves a very strong in- ference as to its sincerity in anti-lynching legislation.

Va. To the Editor. Dear Sir—In reading your splen- did editorials of last week's issue, there came to,my notice a published letter, signed by one “Rey. Chas. E. Tucker, of Augusta, Ga.” In it he referred to an effort launched by representatives of West Virginia to enact a “jim crow” law in this atate, and the Hon. John W. Davis was strong in defense, of the race, and led the forces in defeating the ef- ort. Please permit me to. brand that statement as absolute false! ‘The Demoérats of this state who op- posed that bill, did it by request of our Municipal’ and State Railroad companies because of the extra ex- pense amobnting to’a vast sum of ‘money to put such a law in opera- tion. T am led to think: that this Rev. Tucker was located at. that time at Fairmont, \W. Va., and was known as the-the Hon. Rev. C. E. Tucker, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, Fairmont, W. Va., and promised to lead the Negro vote of our state for James Cox, for President, and Hon. Sam B. Mont- gomery, for Governor of West Vir- gina. But the people of this little Mountain States are in a large measure self thinkers, and will not be hood.winked by a few. hungry, crooked, horn blowers . from other islands. from which they hailed and received their training’ for ~ leader- ship in our schools, and yet for a few puny dollars they pose as lead- ers of the majority of our group.
