The Topeka Plaindealer COLORED REPLACE WHITE PULLMAN CONDUCTORS MEMPHIS, Tenn., Sept. 9. The experiment that the Pullman Company has inaugurated in the north of replacing white Pullman conductors with colored men to collect fares and perform other duties of the conductor on many runs, is being tried out in the South in a quiet way, according to reports current in railroad circles. Representatives of the Pullman Company say that certain changes that have been made and that are contemplated, are only in line with the company's efforts to return to normal, pre-war conditions. Making Good That the colored porters are making good in their new branch of work is manifested by the fact that there have been fewer complaints during the last two months than ever before. The men are courteous, well-informed and honest. Among the runs from which, according to report; conductors have been taken off are trains between Nashville and Atlanta on the N. C. and St. L., and between Nashville and Knoxville on the Tennessee Central railroads. KEEP IN TOUCH WITH YOUR OLD HOME TOWN National "Subscribe to Home Town Paper Week." November 7th to the 12th If every one born and reared in this town had remained here to make his permanent home, we should be a city of many thousands, more population than we now number. On the other hand, cities and towns elsewhere that have attracted our youth would never have been founded, perhaps, and America would remain as it was in pioneer days—a great continent with a few scattered cities all too large, all over-congeated. But the opportunity that calls men away from their native homes keeps the great movement alive, with the result that practically every corner of America has in it a representative of Topeka, Kansas. However, the home town always has its interest for the people who heeded the call to go elsewhere, and news of its progress and the doings of its people is welcome news to the native and former resident, wherever he may now be located. Correspondence, however faithful, cannot cover all the news and gossip and seldom deals with more than family affairs. The perfect medium, of course, is the home town newspaper, which prints all the news of all the people. Some of these items, while of limited interest to you, might be of great interest to one away from home. There is now a nation-wide movement on foot, sponsored by the National Editorial Association and other agencies, in which this paper is taking part, looking to a stimulation of interest in the Home Town Paper, To do our part, we are this week offering an extra copy of the Topeka Plaindealer to every subscriber with this request that he send it to a relative or friend out of town, with a special subscription blank which we will provide. This extra copy, is free for the asking by writing or calling at this office. Or, if preferred, we will send free copies to such former residents as you may designate. NOTICE NOTICE TO DUR CITY SUBSCRIBERS: Hereafter all local items coming from our local readers and consisting of over four lines, will be charged for at the rate of 10c per line, with seven words to the line. All items over ten lines at the rate of 5c per line. This is done from the fact that so many people take advantage by sending in at times, a quarter of a column of matter to be published free of charge. This applies to all locals sent to this office, either by mail, phone or in person. THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER THE PAPER FOR HOME NEWS. NINTH AND TENTH CAVALRY NOT TO BE DEMOBILIZED The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today made public the text of a letter written by the Adjutant General on Sept. 2nd, stating that no order had been given to demobilize the Ninth and Tenth Cavalry as had been reported. This was occasioned by an article in the Washington Evening Star of August 19th, carrying the following news: "Sweeping changes in reorganization of all cavalry units of the Army placing the Second Calvary Division comprising the 3rd and 4th brigades and the 3rd and 4th Machine Gun squadrons, on the inactive list and demobilizing units of the 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th and 15th Cavalry regiments, were ordered tolay by the War Department." The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People immediately communicated with Senators Capper and Hadsworth and Congressman Hamilton Fish, Jr., asking if this statement was correct and whether they could advise any action to be taken by the Association to insure the preservation of the 9th and 10th Cavalry regiments. As a result the following letter addressed to Senator Wadsworth by the Adjutant General was forwarded to the offices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People: "No orders have been issued to demobilize the 9th and 10th Cavalry. The writer probably misunderstood an order to demobilize several troops of these two colored regiments and of all white regiments. As a result of the reorganization and reduction of the Army, all regiments, white and colored, have been reduced from fifteen troop regiments to eight troop regiments. In addition, three white Cavalry regiments are being placed on the 'inactive List.' The 9th and 10th Cavalry will remain 'Active' and be organized exactly like all cavalry regiments, and an additional colored machine gun troop will be maintained in the Philippines." YALE, KANSAS By Mrs. Nettle Hudson. Mrs. Henry Dorsey has been ill for the past few days with Typhoid Fever. She is improved at this writing. The S. M. T. Juvenile Club will give a supper at the Baptist church soon. Every one is urged to be present. The Baptist church had a social on last Saturday night. A prize was given for the person baking the best pie. Mrs Baker won the first prize of $100, for her pie, a delicious Sweet Potato pie. A big cake was also sold containing money. Those receiving salces containing money, were: Mr. George Wheaton, Marie Wheaton, Mrs. Thos. Murdock and Mrs. Carrie Redd. Each received a quarter. The Methodist church had a glorious baptizing on last Sunday. Four souls were baptized. The Baptist also had a baptizing on the previous Sunday and baptized seven converts. Mrs. Ann/ McGee visited her brother and sister, Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Kinchlo at this place last Sunday. Mrs McGee resides in Pittsburg, Kansas. CHANUTE. KAN8AS Mr. Henderson of Lawrence, was in the city last week visiting Mr. and Mrs. Clem. Elmer Drummer returned last week from Topeka Mr. E. Williams of Erie spent the week end with his wife, Mrs. Williams. The Watermelon feast on Thursday night at Mr. Ed. McDaniel was well attended. Rev. Nichols is winding up his year's work here and will go to the annual conference on the 22nd at Topeka. We are trusting that, he will return to us. Herman Thompkins spent Sunday in Iola. Miller-Bettis and the U. B. F. The officers of the U. B. F. Grand Lodge, Kansas Jurisdiction, are at daggers ends over the calling of the Grand Lodge which was scheduled to meet in the city of Wichita, on the constitutional date set at the last Grand season in Atchison. Grand Master O'Hara Miller states that the Board with his approval had the meeting called off on account of the meeting of the National body which met in July. Grand Secretary, W. A. Bettis claims they had no right to do so. He further states that Grand Master Miller was afraid to face his official acts and therefore, wanted no Grand Lodge, and used the National Grand Lodge as a subterfuge. The constitution has a provision wherein five or more subordinate lodges shall constitute a quorum for a Grand Lodge. The Grand Secretary issued the call for all lodges to meet on the constitutional date set at Wichita, as designated in the Atchison meeting in 1920. He states that a constitutional number of lodges were present at the meeting. The meeting opened up, transacted business, elected officers and adjourned. At the same time, Grand Master Miller and the Grand officers and Boards elected in 1920, were conspicuous by their absence, standing by the call of the Grand Master not to meet. Now arises the question, was it in the power of the Board to call the meeting off, or should the matter have been left to the sub-ordinate Lois and Sam Williams returned Sunday from Milda, Okla. where they spent the summer with their grand parents. The S. E. Division of the Mission Circle of New Hope Baptist church met on Monday with Mrs. G. Berry. Mrs. Geo. Kouns entertained for Mrs. L. Hale, Mrs. W. Cole and Mrs. N. H. Campbell, at a beautiful six o'clock dinner last Friday. Mr. Ed. McDaniel was called to Emporia, last week to attend the funeral of Chester Carter. George and Arthur Bradley spent last week in Guthrie, Okla., visiting relatives and friend. Mr. Byron McDaniels leaves on the 18th for Iowa City to enter the state University to take up Dentistry. New Hope Baptist church was without a pastor on last Sunday. Mr. Evert Mix of Erie, was in the city last week. Mrs. Geo. Hubbarl was called to Sedalla last week on account of the illness of her mother. Several young people attended the dance in Parsons on last Thursday. Duke's Jazz Orchestra will be in the city on the 15th and 16th. School opened here on the 12th. Miss Margaret Burgess returned! from Kansas City Sunday where she has been visiting for the past two weeks. Mrs. Irene Clem left Monday for Lawrence where she will resume her studies at the University. Mr. Lawrence Clem is expected to be able to leave the hospital this week. We wish for him a speedy recovery. Miss Willie Riggs left Sunday for Topeka where she will resume her studies at the Kansas Industrial and Educational Institute. CARBONDALE, KANSAS The Rev. J. R. Martin, of Topeka, delivered an excellent sermon at the 8:00 o'clock services on last Sunday. Mrs G. Krssef of Osage was a visitor at the services on last Sunday. A collection of $300 was raised. Rev. J. R. Martin was the supper guest of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Johnson. Mrs. Daisey Freeman, Church clerk The Shower reception given by the official boards of the church in honor of Rev. G. M. Tillman's 31st year in the ministry, was held at Wayman Chapel, A. M. E. church, Thurs evening, Sept. 1, 1921. "The affair was a success in every way. A fine program was rendered as follows; Invocation, Rev. Simon Thomas, of Shiloh Baptist church; History of Rev. Tillman's life was read by Mrs. lodger? Second, has the Board the authority? Third, was Grand Master Miller afraid to face the Grand Lodge for his official acts, that he feared would bring him in disrepute? Fourth, were there any serious causes why the Grand Lodge should not be held, the annual taxes assessed for the purpose of defraying all such necessary expenses? Now, who is right? The lodges should summons or request the National Grand Master to visit Kansas, call the representatives of the subordinate lodges and either let them approve of Miller's Boards' action, or the Bettis Grand Lodge at Wichita. Or at least, settle the controversy. There is something like eight or ten thousand dollars in the Endowment department Treasury to pay death claims. This is the money of hard working people and should be protected. What the people want is, that honest men head the organization who will work for the good of the order and not selfish-gain. The Order should not be led into litigation or court action, which will cause the paying out of its funds for selfishness, stupidity and bigotry. This Order can be made one of the largest and strongest insurance orders in the country if properly handled. Let the members who pay in and do not draw out, take hold of the reins. There is something wrong somewhere or all of this muss would not be kicked up. NICK CHILES. Frances Hunter; Music by Jasper and Berthena Hunter; Rev. Simon Thomas spoke in the life of Rev.

Refreshments were served and an enjoyable time was had. Mrs Mattle Harris, of 623 N. 3rd street, left Sunday for New Franklin, Mo., to visit her aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. John Wright. She will go to St. Louis and Chicago, before returning home. The members of Shiloh Baptist church are the busiest people in town putting on plays and drills, suppers, etc. They are working to raise the funds to put a new roof on their church before cold weather sets in. With the assistance of their pastor, the Rev. Smith, they are having a great success. The Rally of the A. M. D. church Sunday School was a decided success. Altho it rained a large number of the children were out and took part in the program. The smallest class in the Sunday School is Mrs P. Maxwell's class and the little tots were the banner winners. They raised the sum of $272. We appreciate the work done by these dear little ones and wish Mrs. Maxwell great success in her good work. The chicken supper given by Mrs J. Parks and Mrs. S. G. Daniels, was a success. Those who took part in the Sunday School program, are as follows: Duett. Paul Woodson and Dollie Maxwell; Recitation, Miss Minnie Nelson, Reading Miss Nettle Hackner, Solo Miss Nellie Faulkner, remarks Rev. W, H. G. Rowe. Miss Faulkner's talk in how to build up our Sunday School and the duty of parents and teachers, was highly appreciated by all and we welcome her back. Mr. B. F. Miller who has been reported ill is some better at this notice. The members of the Mt. Zlon Baptist church gave a supper at the home of Mrs. Rachel Howard, on Lowman street, Thursday, Sept. 9th. Dr. Guy Allison, of Joplin, Mo., is in the city visiting his mother, Mrs. OFFICIAL NOTICE TO ALL LODGEB, TEMPLES AND JUVENILES OF THE U. B. F. AND S. M.

Clark, a candy maker of Kansas City, Mo. They spent their honey moon at St. Louis as the guest of Poro College where they were royally entertained by her many friends in that city. A number of social functions, parties, outings, etc., were given in their honor. Mrs. Clark comes from one of the best families in the state of Kansas. Her father was a prominent educator and fraternal man. Her mother is now teaching in the city schools of Leavenworth. Mrs. Clark taught all the grades from the lowest to the highest in the public school system and is rated as a first-class teacher. They will be at home to their many friends after Oct. 15th. Mr. Clark is one of Kansas City's active young men and is an expert in the candy business. The Plainlealer extends to them its best wishes for a long and happy wedded life. Club No. 1, of Shiloh Baptist church gave a supper at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Lytle on Sept. 1st. EDITOR'S NOTE BOOK U. S. Senator Arthur Capper came home a few days ago to visit the Kansas Free Fair and look over the situation and see if the "Grass Roots" were moving. We found him looking fine and feeling good. He is one of the true blue friends of the Race now in the Senate. He states that he was on the committee of the District of Columbia, and that he was seeing to it that the colored schools of that city were receiving their share of the appropriations. We also learned that he was on the committee to investigate the charges filed against Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, who is the nominee for the position of Recorder of Deeds for the District, and the Senator states that the charges fell flat and Johnson will be confirmed, notwithstanding, a protest went up against him by the white employees of that department He remarked that President Harding ignored them and sent Johnson's name to the Senate. The President is all right on the Race and will be heard from in due time, remarked the Kansas Senator. All Kansas is proud of the work being carried on in the Senate by Senator Capper anl hope and pray that his good health will continue that he may be able to accomplish the many good things he has in mind for the good of the masses. CHAS. WOLFF PACKING CO. We are pleased to call our readers attention to the advertisement in our columns of the Wolff Packing Company, of this city, who are conducting this week what is known as "Wolff Week." Some thirty years ago, Mr. Chas Wolff, now deceased, founded the Wolff Packing company in this city, which was a pioneer firm and which practically started the commercial growth of Topeka. He founded well, indeed. The business prospered well under his guidance and soon became a large and growing business At the death of Mr. Wolff, his son, Chas. Wolff, Jr., succeeded him as president of the firm. Being a young active business man, he at once started out to increase the business handed down to him by his father, realizing the future possibilities of the city and a great packing industry. afforded by the large stock raising country of Kansas and the West. Under his guidance, the business has become nationally known, their products reaching from one end of the world to the other and only recently have made large shipments to Europe. Mr. Wolff is a strong advocate of giving quality first and fair treatment to the producer, the dealer, the employee and to all who might have business with the firm in any capacity. The campaign being made at this time is to more thoroughly acquaint the general public with the high standard of Wolff's products and to inform the people that it is a Kansas concern catering not only to Kansas, but the world. The products are first class table commodities, being Kansas stock and well fed and cared for. We cheerfully recommend any of Wolff's products.

AT THE SHRINE OF OUR BOYHOOD Versatile Plaindealer Contributor At Home on Visit. After an absence covering a period of thirty four years, I availed myself of the opportunity-presented me, of a few days visit thru Central Missouri, and to some of the scenes of my boyhood days. My first stop was at Sedilla, where the Missouri Centennial and the State Fair was in progress. I was not able to spend much time at the Fair, but I found it the best of many good ones which have been held at this place. Many thousands of people were in attendance every day, among whom I found many of our group, some I had not seen since a mere boy. The exhibits of live stock, poultry and agricultural products were of the highest standard and the various models of agricultural implements on display, and the demonstrations being conducted with same, serve as a fore runner of the great expectations that may be hoped for in the realm of intensive agricultural pursuits. Our group was represented at the Horse Show by Mr. Tom Bass, of Mexico, Mo., whose horse, "Over the Top," won a prize in the championship 'saddles take for saddle horses'. Mr. Bass is favorably and well known as among the leading horsemen of our group in the central west. At Sedalla, I was the guest of a cousin, Walter Henderson and an aunt, Mrs. C. A. Euglin, whom I had not seen for thirty eight years. An old friend Daly Steele, who conducts a barber shop on Main street, and an associate Pete Chambers, have stuck to their jobs all thru these long years and are yet at their posts and doing well, a placentalFpuso flufffim bkgqj gkqjg I also met James Ramsey, a boyhood chum, and his brother, Samuel Ramsey, who has a place at Jefferson City, under Governor Hyde's administration. Three cousins, J. Thomas Henderson, George Mitchell and Mrs. Annie Henderson Grey, all of whom I had not seen since I was a child, helped to make my stay in Sedalla, a grand and glorious one. Another cousin, Jack Williams, from Syracuse, Mo., I found at the Katy hospital, he having fallen under a train a few days previous to my visit and had three fingers cut off. Miss America Henderson, a cousin at Jefferson City, who had waited for my coming for many years, was summoned to the Great Beyond, a short while before my visit, and so, as it goes, thru life, my way was to be interspersed with clouds as well as sunshine, but I had prayed God to give me strength to endure whatever might arise. Our group, I found is fairly pro- gressive in Sodall, and there I found some beautiful, substantial homes, but in many instances the premises and streets are not well kept. Like many other cities in which the people who have the most money, I found those, the less pro- gressive. The Church of God, (Holy Rollers) were holding their annual convention during my stay there and the Saints were in attendance from five or six states. At Otterville, I spent a few hours with a cousin, Mrs Nellie-Hubbard, one who had known and taken care of me when I was a baby; time had wrought such changes that we were not able to recognize each other when we met, but after a brief exchange of words we renewed acquaintance, and had a pleasant afternoon visit. It was Saturday and the weekend picnic so common to the country village was in progress to which I was invited by my old friend, Ed Hogan, which I was compelled to foreign, in that I was so pressed for time. Mrs Hubbard presented me with a portrait of my mother made from an old tin (tin) which was taken fort three years ago, which I consider more than repaid me for my trip. Other friends I met in Otterville were., James Hogan, a boyhood friend; Mr. and Mrs. "Hub" Jackson and their mother, Mrs. Maggie Clark, who have a nice home opposite the Missouri Pacific Station and I note are doing well. Our group here seems to be very unmindful of the future, and indifferent on the question of race progress. Upon my arrival at Tipton, Sunday morning, I retired to the home of Mrs. Jane Hall, an old friend, where I rested and had a good breakfast, after which I attended Sunday School at the Prairie Grove Baptist church, where I was converted and from which I was baptized thirty six years ago. It was a glorious meeting to me at least, to go back after so many years and find some of my associates still in the work. Some whom I had clearly loved had crossed over the Great Stream of life; others had been transferred to new fields of labor and yet God had left some to greet me—just a few. Mrs. Rose Davis is in charge of the Sunday School work with the assistance of a splendid corps of helpers. Mrs. Davis was for many years the Secretary of the Missouri State Convention. I had dinner with Mrs. Davis and her family, after which I spent the afternoon visiting friends. In the evening I had supper at the hope of Mr. and Mrs Walt. M. Monroe, a white family whom I had worked for thirty five years ago on the Tipton Times, where I had my first newspaper experience. We had a nice visit of several hours, conversing over the shifting scenes of the years which have passed into history and the many changes enacted thereby, after which we said au revoir, and I turned my face to the north, west on my return to those who wait for me at home. While it was not possible for me to visit all the places and friends that I desired, I feel that I was fully repaid for my trip in meeting the few that had been spared, and in the consolation that Providence had dealt mercifully with us during the intervening years, and that there is always a "Hand that Guides."

The poultry and pet stock show of the State Fair was considered a record breaker last year, but if early indications and inquiries from poultry fanciers and exhibitors are to be taken evidence, the 1921 Kansas State Fair will see an even larger poultry and pet stock exhibition than that of last year. These departments of the Kansas State Fair have always been considered very important, and are under the direction of Frank S. Randle of Hutchinson who is superintendent of Poultry and Will M. Banta who is superintendent of the pet stock section. The judges of 1921 show are E. C. Bianch, Leg's Summit, Missouri, and Frank E. Buck of Oklahoma City, Okla. Let's See It!

KANSA8 AVE. ENSIGN DRUG STORE, 304 FOREST ST. OAKLAND, KANSA8. Visits in Kansas City and Seas Himself in Motion Pictures for First Time in his Life. Patrolman K. K. Pinkston, one of the oldest and most efficient officers on the city force spent a part of his annual vacation visiting his sons in Kansas City last week. He returned home feeling greatly improved by his visit. In an interview with the writer, he gave out the following information: "No I did not go for a good time. I went to see my children and my six grand children. I was badly in need of a rest after the hard neck of the Pythian Encampment. And speaking about the Encampment, I am informed by those who know that it was a grand affair and one of the best in the history of that body. For one time I had the pleasure of seeing myself in moving pictures at the head of the big parade, which is claimed by all to have been the finest and most-up-to-date affair which ever passed up the main streets of this city. You ask me about the people there. Well I notice that the conservative class and those with ability are progressing well and owing to the large influx from the south have a large population with which to do business. As to the causes of the influx, he remarked that owing to the race riots in Arkansas and Oklahoma, and the tendency to leave the small towns has filled up our large cities, and too, I find them of the most industrious and progressive type. They are setting the pace for us to follow, in that they are buying good property, have good bank accounts, and engaging in all branches of business and helping to solve the problem by doing something. I find their deportment to be the same as any other race; I can't say that as a whole, is above reproach. And say, take it for me, Kansas City is on the map. While the poor whites and the Colored man is struggling for existence, he will ride in the best of cars, wear silk shirts, go to a baseball game every day and a theatre at night, and in time of need he is broke, so they mush think and do for themselves. TOPEKA'S PIONEER CONTRACTOR PASSES AWAY. Mr. Spencer C. Hawkins., age 75 years, died Sept 6th at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Hester Hardiman. He was a carpenter and contractor, and his last work was the construction of the auditorium of St. John A, M. E. church, which will stand as a monument to his craftsmanship. He leaves a wife, two sons and six daughters, step children, brothers, and a host of friends to mourn their loss. The funeral was held from St. John A. M. E. church where he had been a conscientious worker for a number of years. Mt. Morlah Lodge, No. 5, A. F. and A. M., of which he was a member, officiated. He was a Past Master of the Knights Templar and was one of the first members of the Masonic building committee which purchased the hall at 404 Kansas avenue. Mr. Hawking was a race man who always stood ready to defend the cause at any risk. Believing in education, he saw to it that all of his daughters received a high school education and a number of them went thru college. He leaves twenty grandchildren and one great grand daughter. He was progressive and owned several pieces of property. He was born in Tennessee and had been a resident of Kansas about 37 years.

Magic Power of a Bark from Africa Have you lost your youth, vigor and "pep"? Does life seem dull and work a grind? Don't worry. Science has discovered a new vitalizer superior even to the much discussed "goat gland" and "monkey gland" treatment. The principal ingredient is an extract from the bark of an African tree.

In most cases, the compound produces marked improvement in a day or two, and in a short time the vitality is revived, the circulation improved and the glow of health is felt in every part. The new vitalizer contains expensive chemicals, but manufacturing in enormous quantities has brought the cost within the reach of all. Furthermore, the laboratories producing this new vitalizer, which is called Re-Nu Tabs, are so confident of its power that they offer it on the basis of "no results, no pay." Any reader of this paper may test the new discovery without risk.
