THE RICHMOND PLANET Virginia State Library OLUME XXXVIII, NO. 47 RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1921 PRICE, FIVE CENTS EDITOR MITCHELL'S TRAVELS Sidhu Trivikram Punjab Govt New Delhi, India Sidhu Trivikram, China India, Mountain I did not have the time to leave tomorrow Monday afternoon at the clock and neither did Dr. E. R. G. Cowen, but as a matter of fact, I led hee, Becoe C. Mitchell was in the city and Robinson Davis was at the coal of the Stanley Steam car. The daze of the sublime oil for the can car to arrive made me doubtful out making the trip by the road ute and I had looked at the train include with the possibility that I did take that route. However, we used up a sublimate and left wood at a shipment of special oil to be made in Charlotteville and we would able to secure it at that point on our journey. AT TREVILLANS I had stood oud to be at Trowell on Sunday night, 19th fist, and the car is running triple, in that direction. We found the road all right on Alley, and then we crossed a typed Virginia road. It was easy to up to the other road, then the road three ways wide. We passed Chelsea and found road, in the middle of Minnesota on to Fortune and at that Trowell. We stood at the place the numbers, we were piloted on the middle of the road where other were on the road that piloted. Nixon on Piloted was on the road that piloted her OWSING MARY ACKENS Impress you very much. We had off the of the bed and the door open. We had some water in the mug. We had Mr. and Mrs. J.

CHICKEN HAWK SENAT saw a large transparent glass lining bottom broken in and this was one of the uprights of the fence, looked straight to me and he explained that it was done to keep away kisses from the chickens. When the shines on that bottle, a hawk will come near it. He thinks it is a dog. I had never heard that before, it can keep away crows by running from one pole to another. He asks it is a tran and he will not be near a field where one is "Another thing" said Mr. Perkins, "if a crow goes over here and he does not go, other crows will not tight n a nake. On the other hand, if two crows go over here and you kill one and other files back, the other crows come. CANT COUNT TWO. we will not notice that one crow is sitting, We say that a crow is sitting on one, but he cannot count two." This time, Robin had had to work of steaming up and I wily to leave this neighborhood. The fame was delighted to entertain us we were soon on the road to N.Y. Irish's residence, where Dr. Jefferson and Roscoe joined us. We were bound for Charlotteville and not raversing some of the prouessies in Virginia, we found ourselves out of an awful detour, crossing a bridge and later going over the and O., R. R. into Charlotteville where we met Capt. O. G. Covas, had already made up his mind "to with us to Stamton. ROAD CLOSED We took a road that was closed for girls and we doubled back to Charleston and came around a whirlbut good road. We were running high speed now. Robinson was makeup time. We were now at the foot the long climb of the Atton Mount., or the mountain at Atton. Weoped to refresh ourselves and to up and then we went on our way, view was magnificent. The Piedt Valley in the distance lay before like a panorama and we voiced ouriration. The course was winding dangerous, but the car went up at rate of 22 miles per hour and was holding steam. Then we reached the top. STEEP DECENT The two of us were warriors, then took both. Many a tourist had lost his life and many a shop have been a bride of this merchant. Good brakes and brakes on the door that made the door. It was on the movement in the stairway by the timber, had compact for some years. We were pep- eous about it. Wayne hero and the stairway stairway. We had lost both. It become ville at 11:30. As we were sure, there was good trouble on the whirl- dish, it filled with alcohol men. The knife we and waved a emblem we love. Robinson did not like that. THAT FILE OF ROCKS There was no noticeable change in the speed of the Stanley. All 1 km w is that the other car was overtaken in a jitter and as Robinson hunchled blow for the other car to give him the road and be went by, the other car looked as though it was standard still. We had no about a mile with the Stanley struck a pile of rocks. The imperious parted and we had a quick job of shifting to the spike on the rear. The other car came up mounted and offered good guidance but we needed none. We shoved them and they went on. Then we went on to Stanley again. IN BRAWTON We are the leading provider of high quality on-site training for the construction industry and the construction industry in the United States. We are the leading provider of high quality on-site training for the construction industry in the United States. COLLEGE TECH CHANELS --- When I returned to Mr. Malbrow's residence he recounted daughter and prepared sunflower and we all ate in hourly repast. Arrangement had been made to pick the Stanley in the Mr. McBrey's book yard. He had a garden there, but evidently it had not turned out to his satisfaction for he instructed Robinson to proceed. Then came another difficulty, the curb was about 12 inches above the gutter. Just below we saw two iron plates and with these the Stanley was soon gotten into the yard. I need hardly dwell on the political meeting held in the county court house. A large crowd had gathered and I spoke upon the political issues as I seldom speak. THAT HAIR DRESSING SIGN Then came a making of a new lodge of Knights of Pythias at the hake. It was 12:30 when I was ready to retire at Mr. Mabrey's residence. He has a pleasant home, here with all 11 modra conveniences. The hairdressing shnold of his wife's occupation, but there was a shadow over the home. She had lost her mind and had to be sent to the Central Ho pitial. His daughter had taken her place and she has proven to be an excellent housekeeper. I had made arrangements to take breakfast at Alen's home the next morning at 7:30 for I was anxious to leave Stamton carry. It was 8:30 before the Stanley was before the door there. CAPT. CONN GOES HOME I failed to state that Capt. O. G. Conn had taken the 2:15 train for Charlotteville and he promised to be ready to receive us when we arrived. We enjoyed that breakfast. Mr. Allen had improved perceptibly and all we well with us. The city has placed a beautiful towered a new directly in front of Mr. and Mrs. Allen's residence and this will tend to increase the value. We had been to receive at the corner store and it was 9:20 when we proceeded to leave for Richmond. As for Dr. E. R. Jefferson he was show "boarding the train" so to speak and we had moved off before he jumped into the car. A RACING CAR We called on Mr. and Mrs. M. W. Pannelli at their cozy home. Then we proceeded through the city to the road leading to Charlotteville. We did not lose any time and we looked at the (Continued on Fourth Page) THE LILY BLACKS.

NEWSON, Republ occults Party think of the NeoNazi He wil evictive his political freedom and endanger the future of his civil demon for the pitiful sum of one gol lar and fifty cents! NEGRO NOT WANTED Mr. Ander on boldly asserts to all who are able to understand the English language that the Negro is not wanted in the councils of the party be cause of his lack of character and experience. How any selfrespecting Negro can vote for him or any other "Lily White" is beyond the knees of this writ "What, then, is the logical thing to do? The answer is obvious. We have a full ticket in the field. It is Republican in platform and principle. It discriminates against no man or woman who believes in the civil and political equity of "all perons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof." AN APPEAL TO THE VOTER In the main, the candidates are citizens of the highest character. They come from the rank and file of our population and each one is a force to be reckoned with in his own community. Note, therefore, the Republican ticket, headed by John Mitchell, Jr., a fearless leader and a c'ean, upright and forward looking statesman, and thus vindicate your faith in the party of Lincoln, Lennon Douglass and the immortal Rosevelt.

A THREE CORNERED FIGHT The colored Republican of Virginia is met in a convention on September 18th at the True Reformers Hall in Richmond and sponsored a full-fledged state office in making the third ballot to be voted on at the convention. Newry six hundred. Ohio voters reported pro-act as the votes which were to be unified the mime that year of the Republican Party of Virginia. "The closest manned was so fellow John Mitchell, chief of Rikershouse Government; Theodore Knight of Post mortuary, interment Governor of F. T. Newcom of New York, Attorney General. Lean Candidate for Attorney General Thomas E. Blackson on the American Treasury; P. N. Cookson on the Lyndhurst Treasury of the Commonwealth; Mrs. Moseley L. Walker of Richmond, Superintendent of Right Instruction; J. L. Roof of Ramone Corporation Commission; N. P. Trickhouse, of Exmore Commission of Agriculture. The plan adopted had the following expression on the subject of the franchise: We hold that under a government where the sovereign power is solicited in the people and exercised by them through the elective franchise, the right to vote is inapparable from the right to be voted for, and any attempt to separate these preagatives is a dam gerds political heresy, contrary to the principles of our Republican form of Government and destructive of the ends and aims of a free people. The history of the colored people in Virginia for the past twenty years attests the fact that they are by no means chronic office seekers, and herefor, we denounce as a political subterfuge the pronouncement in the Republican platform in which it attempts by imminueto to acquire the white electorate that it is opposed to Negro officeholders and thereby in its efforts to gain the support of a certain element of the white electorate offers a gratuitous insult to the colored electorate at large. This is a distilled and deliberate step taken in opposition to the "Lift-white" movement, designed to eliminate the Nero from the Republican party in Virginia. It is an entirely legitimate effort of self-defense and the participants in it are entitled to full credit for their courage and self-assurance in maintaining their rights as citizens and as members of the Republican party. The measure of support that this movement can demand from the colored citizens of Virginia will measure the interest that the race is willing to devote to self-development in politics. If the result of the election demonstrates that the cooperation of the Negroes of Virginia is essential to the maintenance of good government, this manifestation will not have been in (New York Age) Mr. F.

THE RICHMOND PLANET Virginia State Library VOLUME XXXVIII, NO. 47 EDITOR MITCHELL'S TRAVELS Sitting Trevillians—Peculiar Country Emblems—Car Racing—Climbing a Mountain --- I did not have the time to leave Schmond Monday afternoon at 4:20 clock and neither did Dr. E. R. Jelfson, but as a matter of fact, I had go. Roscoe C. Mitchell was in the city and Robinson Davis was at the pool of the Stanley Steam car. The flurge of the lubricating oil for the cam car to arrive me doubtful out making the trip by the road and I had looked at the train module with the possibility that I could take that route. However, we xed up a substitute and left word at a shipment of special oil he made us at Charlottesville and we would able to secure it at that point our turn fourway. AT TREVILLIANS I had promised to heat Trevillians monday night, 19th int, and the car is running fauties in that direction. We found the road all right to en Allen and then we struck a typi- Virginia road. It was rough up to contetier and then good time was made. We passed Cuckoo and found i roads just this side of Minne- on on to Louisa and at last at Tres- lans. We stopped at the store there a then after, meeting Sir J. A. Ambers, we were piloted to the plpping place at the hall, where a setting was to be held that night. Nixon of Richmond was at Sir A. Chambers residence and she show us her handwork in papering. OWNED MANY ACRES supper was served. We had left the fatt at the hall until our return. When it got back, we went to the residence Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Parrish, where perer was served. After the meeting, E. R. Jefferson and Roscoe C.chell slept that night at Mr. Parrish's residence, while I went with Johnson in the car to the residence Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Perkins. He an ideal spot for parking the candy and another meal was served more we retired. The next morning cooked over his place. He has 167盒 of land here. The dry spell had aired the crop. CHICKEN-UAWK SENSE saw a large transparent glass jig hilten broken off and this was one of the uprights of the fence, looked strange to me and he explain that it was done to keep away skins from the chickens.

He kicks it is a trap and he will not be near a field where one is. "Another thing" said Mr. Perkins, "if a crow dies over here and he does not get, other crows will not light near me. On the other hand, if two crows over here and you kill one and other crows back, the other crows come. CAN'T COUNT TWO. we will not notice that one crow is singing. We say that a crow can count one, but he cannot count two." this time, Robinson had completed work of steaming up and I was to leave this neighborhood. The fame was delighted to entertain us we were soon on the road to Mr. Irish's residence, where Dr. Jeffery and Rosece joined us. We were bound for Charlottesville and a traversing some of the roughest Virginia, we found ourselves out ing, awful, awful a bridge and later going over the and O. , R. R., into Charlottesville where we met Capt. O. G. Coun, had already made up his mind to with us to Staunton. ROAD CLOSED We took a road that was closed for cars and we doubled back to Charleston and came around a windbut good road. We were running high speed now, Robinson was make-up time. We were now at the foot the long climb of the Afton Mount, or the mountain at Afton. We needed to refresh ourselves and to up and then we went on our way, view was magnificent. The Pleat Valley in the distance lay before like a panorama and we voiced ouriration. The course was winding dangerous, but the car went up at rate of 22 miles per hour and was holding steam. Then we reached the top. STEEP DESCENT The steep descent was worst than sleep climb. A tourist had lost his life and many others have been injured on this mountain. Good brakes must be on the car that makes the descent. It was on this mountain that the Stanley brake Hings had caught on fire some years ago. We were passing through Waynesboro and then at Watson. We had left Clear lodgeville in the morning. We had long along on good road, a car whisked past us, fliled with colored men. They knew me and waved a smiling goodbye. Robinson did not like that. THAT PILE OF ROCKS There was no noticeable change in the speed of the Stanley. All I knew is that the other car was overtaken in a jiffy and as Robinson laughingly blew for the other car to give him the road and Le went by, the other car looked as though it was standing still. We had gone about a mile, when the Stanley struck a pile of rocks. The inner tube parted and we had a quick job of shifting to the spare tire on the rear. The other car came up, stopped and offered assistance but we needed none. We thanked them and they went on. Then we went on to Staunton again. IN STAUNTON We saw the point at which one time on a previous trip Robinson had raced and beat a C. and O. R. R. train into Staundon. Arriving we, there we passed the Western Hospital, (Junatic asylum.) COULD NOT ORGANIZE This reminded me of a story. A visitor to the Western Hospital saw so many crazy inmates and so few guards or keepers that he made the remark, "what if these inmates were to organize, what show would such a small guard have against them?" These people cannot organize," was the prompt response, "they are crazy." Then we met a sentient placed there by Sir A. C. Mabrey to look out for us, just a block and a half more and we were in his attractive corner residence. We unloaded the luggage, while I went in the car to Jack Allen's residence. Mr. Allen had been dangerously ill, but was much improved, I promised to return. A MEETING THERE When I returned to Mr. Mahrey's residence, his accomplished daughter had prepared supper and we all ate a hearty repast. Arrangements had been made to park the Stanley in Mr. Mahrey's back yard. He had a garden there, but evidently, it had not turned out to his satisfaction for he instructed Robinson to proceed. Then came another difficulty, the curb was about 12 inches above the gutter. Just below we saw two iron plates and with these the Stanley was soon gotten into the yard. I need hardly dwell on the politi cal meeting held in the county court house. A large crowd had gathered and I spoke upon the political issues as I seldom speak. THAT HAIR-DRESSING SIGN Then came a making of a new lodge of Knights of Pythias at the hall. It was 12:30 when I was ready to retire at Mr. Mabrey's residence. He has a pleasant home here with all modern conveniences. The hair-dressing sign told of his wife's occupation, but there was a shadow over the home. She had lost her mind and had to be sent to the Central Hospital. His daughter had taken her place and she has proven to be an excellent house-keeper. I was very happy to take the fast at Allen's home the morning at 7:30 for I was anxious to leave Staunton easy. It was 8:30 before the Stanley was before the door there. CAPT. CONN GOES HOME I failed to state that Capt. O. G. Conn had taken the 2:15 train for Charlottesville and he promised to be ready to receive us when we arrived. We enjoyed that breakfast. Mr. Allen had improved perceptibly and all went well with us. The city has placed a beautiful flower 'ed almighty' directly in front of Mr. and Mrs. Allen's residence and this will tend to increase the value. We had secured kerosene at the corner store and it was 9:30 when we arrived from Conn. As for Dr. E. R. Jefferson he was slow "boarding the train," so to speak and we had moved off before he jumped into the car. A RACING CAR We called on Mr. and Mrs. M. W. Pannell at their cozy home. Then we proceeded through the city to the road leading to Charlottesville. We did not lose any time and we looked at the (Continued on Fourth Page) THE LILY BLACKS. The Virginia State ticket is hopelessly split by the "Lily Blacks," who have nominated an entire State ticket of their own with John Mitchell, Jr. of the Richmond Planet for State Governor. The Colored-American has been the balance of power in the State for a number of years. Can the Republicans win without this vote today? They have very small hope of gain even with this vote. The Lily White ticket will have to draw heavily from the Democrats to have a majority. Of the colored vote the Republicans were certain when it was not eliminated from politics. The question is asked, "Why give up the certain for the uncertain? From the large number of delegates, 565 present the "Lily Blacks" show that they mean business. The Bee hopes that the "Lily Blacks" will attract a sufficient number of votes from the other parties or that the seven factions may find some ground upon which they may unite so that the right man may be elected who will serve all the people we work. Reports show that there are organications of Lily Backs springing up in all parts of the South. (Washington D. C. Dec.)

Boyd, the Educational Secretary of the National Baptist Convention, Unincorporated was accidentally shot by a security guard at a hospital here in New Orleans where he was attending the Convention.

The body was reviewed at the Coliseum by thousands before it was sent to Nashville. Dr. Boyd was a close friend of Dr. Cook. This led the leading ministers of the race.

NEWSOME, Republican Candidate for Attorney-General ATTORNEY NEWSOMES PLEA. Editor, Richmond Planet Those benevolent Colored people who have been talking so loudly about voting the Democratic ticket in the coming gubernational election, must have had a rude joke just Sunday when Hail Flood, chairman of the Democratic Party in this State, came out with the bold assertion that the "Negroes will vote for Anderson because he advocates the doing away with the poll tax as a pre requisite to register and to vote Just so. And that is what the Dem HON. J. THOS. NEWSOME, Republ oceratis Party thinks of the Negro! He will sacrifice his political freedom and endanger the future of his chickens. The sum of one dollar and fifty cents NEGRO NOT WANTED Mr. Anderson holdly asserts to all who are able to understand the English language that the Negro is not wanted in the councils of the party he causes of his lack of character and experience. Any selfrespecting Negro can vote for him or any other "Lily White" is beyond the keys of this writer. What, then, is the logical thing to do? The answer is obvious. We have a full ticket in the field. It is Republican in platform and principle. It discriminates against no man or woman who believes in the civil and political naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof." AN APPEAL TO THE VOTER In the main, the candidates are chicens of the highest character. They come from the rank and file of our population and each one is a force to be reckoned with in his own community. Vote, therefore, the Republican ticket, headed by John Mitchell, Jr., a fearless leader and a clean, upright and forward-looking statesman, and thus vindicate your faith in the party of Lincoln.

DR. Z. D. LEWIS TO PREACH. Rev. Z. D. Lewis, D. D., pastor of the Second Baptist Church will occupy his public Sunday morning at 11:30 A. M., subject: "The Converting Row!" A THREE CORNERED FIGHT. The colored Republicans of Virginia in met in a convention on September 6th at the True Reformers Hall in Richmond and nominated a full ticket of State officers making the third ticket to be voted for at the coming election. Nearly six hundred delegates were reported present at the meeting which was held under the mana and style of "the Republican Party of Virginia." "The ticket named was as follows. John Mitchell, Jr. of Richmond, Governor; Theodore Nash of Portsmouth, Lieutenant-Governor J. T. Newsome of Newport News, Attorney-Genera lean Candidate for Attorney-General Thomas E. Jackson, of Staunton, Treasurer; P. V. B. Vachus, of Lynchburg, Secretary of the Commonwealth; Mrs. Maggie L. Walker of Richmond, Superintendent of Public Instruction; J. L. Reed of Roanoke, Corporation Commissioner; A. P. Brickhouse, of Exmore Corporation; A. P. Agriculture. The platform adopted had the following expression on the subject of the franchise: We hold that under a government where the sovereign power is judged in the people and exercised by them through the elective franchise, the right to vote is inapparent from the right to be voted for, and any attempt to separate these prerogatives is a dan genius of our heresy, contrary to the genius of our true form of Govement and destructive of the ends and aims of a free people. The history of the colored people in Virginia for the past twenty years attests the fact that they are by no means chronicle office sackers, and therefore, we denounce as a political subterfuge the pronouncement in the Republican platform in which it attempts by imminendo to asquire the white electorate that it is opposed to Negro officeholders and thereby in its efforts to gain the support of a certain element of the white electorate, offers a gratious insult to the colored electorate at large. This is a dignified and deliberate step taken in opposition to the "Lily-white" movement, designed to eliminate the Negro from the Republican party in Virginia. It is an entirely legitimate effort of self-defense and the incidents in it are entitled to full credit for their courage and self-assurance in machinating their rights as citizens and as members of the Republican party. The measure of support that this movement can demand from the colored citizens of Virginia will measure the interest that the race is willing to devote to self-dovel opment in politics. If the result of the election demonstrates that the cooperation of the Negro of Virginia is essential to the maintenance of good government, this manifestation will not have been in vain. —Mr. F. H. McKenzie, a former Richmonder, but now of Washington, D. C., was in attendance at the Annual session of the Masons, Just week. ANOTHER COLORED BANK MES SENGER IS ROBBED.

MARTIN IS RELEASED BY THE GRAND JURY. --- No Evidence Against Negro Charged With Attempting to Assault A White School Teacher at Inskip, Tenn. Knoxville, Tenn., Sept. 12.—Frank Martin, colored who was arrested Thursday morning, August 18th, and charged with an attempted assault on Miss Jessie Parker, young white woman, a teacher of the school at Inskip was given his release on Thursday morning following a session of the Knox county grand jury before which Miss Parker appeared. The grand jury was in session less than an hour. The corridor of the courthouse was filled with interceded spotters of both races, anxious to know of the outcome of the hearing. It was known that Martin would be hold for trial in criminal court should the young white woman contend that he was the person who assaulted her on the morning in August and should she change her former statement that he was the man, his release would be immediately ordered. The door of the grand jury room opened and every eye was directed to ward Foreman Hood and at each of the jurors as they filled out and from the expression on their faces one could not determine as to the decision they had reached. The jury walked into the criminal court room where Judge Nelson occupied his bench. After turning over the papers which contained a record of their findings Judge Nelson stated: "Gentlemen of the jury, I congratulate you upon your decision. After a careful investigation of the facts in the case you saw fit to exonerate the unfortunate young man of the serious charges against him. The gully person remains at large. I now dismiss each of you indefinitely. The clerk will order the sheriff to release Martin. Frank Martin, whose home is at Holt, Ala., a suburb of Tucson, was arrested on the morning of August 18 by a posse of white citizens and charged with being the man who is said to have attempted to assault Miss Jessie Parker, a young white woman, teacher of the school at Inskip. The attack is said to have occurred in broad open daylight near 7:30 o'clock in the morning as the woman was en route to her school. She is said to have lost conciousness as the result of the attack and when she recovered sufficiently she went to the home of a citizen near by and gave the alarm that she had been attacked by a Negro and dragged into a cornfield nearby where an attempt was made to criminally assault her. Immediately a posse of the citizens of the neighborhood was formed and the search began. Martin was seen riding on a freight train and arrested. On Friday night following the attack on Miss Parker a mob formed on the yards of the county courthouse for the purpose of storming the jail and lynching Frank Martin. But for the heroic efforts of Sheriff W. T. Cate and his efficient corps of deputies the young man walked from the jail on Thursday a free man, would have been dead and unless some one confessed later to the act it would never have been known as to whether Martin was guilty or innocent. Sheriff Cate warned the members of the mob that the law would take its course and the brave officer's warnings were answered by oaths directed at him. The mob threw rocks at him and branded him as a "nigger lover." Several shots were fired, at the fall and officers, whereupon Sheriff Cate designed an imaginary line and warned the mob not to cross at the risk of their lives. When they surged forward the officers fired a volley and more than a score fell wounded. The mob quickly scattered and no further violence was offered Furnished or unfurnished, the newly converted hotel building, Corner Bay and Amherst street on trolley lines and within five minutes walk of Union Station.

FOR LEASE OR RENT Dent THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA GIGANTIC FEATURE IS ADDED TO BIG CIRCUS With Europe's biggest trainel animal show as one of many splendid features, the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Combined Shows will exhibit afternoon and night at Richmond, Tuesday October 18. This marvel circus of 1921 offers the greatest congress of attractions in history. Without eliminating any of the thousand thrills produced by hundreds of the most skillful men and women performers, the Ringling Brothers have added, without additional charge the most sensational of wild beast dis plays. Not only will you see the artists who occupy the three rings, five stages, the great hippodrome track and the aerial rigging in the tent top but four spacious steel arenas filled with wild beasts as well. Tigers riding peaceably on the backs of elephants, black-mauled Afri can lions springing to and from galloping horses, great troupes of polar bears walking ropes or playing at see saw, leopards jumping through hoops of fire—these are some of the marvelous things that these wonderful animals do. While these beautiful creatures are under absolute control, they are presented only in great arenas of steel. Elsewhere in the main tent you will see camels performing much after the fashion of horses—an act never before. presented anywhere There are five troupes of trained seals whole beavles of remarkable dogs, monkeys, pigs and pigeons. Twenty-six elephants will perform at one time. Others will do tricks at the top of high podestals and others circle the entire tent, kicking footballas as they go. Splendid groups of trained stallions, Sheltlands and menage horses form another feature. Aside from the dumb actors are fully 600 men and wo men stars, and nearly 100 clowns. A gorgeous tournament opens the program. The managerie, which is entirely separate from the animals used in the circus performance, is the biggest ever traveled. TO THE BAPSTIST WOMEN OF THE STATE OF VIRGINIA Dear Sisters:— At the meeting of the Women's Baptist Educational and Missionary Convention, which met in Newport News, Va., among the many items of special interest was one, to send our beloved President, Mrs. L. W. Tyrrell to Africa, which in itself, besides going into further discussion, bespeaks quite an achievement for the Women. Mrs. Tyrrell, besides being President of the Women's Educational and Missionary Convention of the State of Virginia is an untiring Christian Worl and is a Representative Woman, who will not only bring credit to our Organization, but her trip will most assuredly bear much fruit for the up lift of Humanity, not only in our State but generally, for she is the right woman in the right place at the right time. Therefore, as the plea was made at our meeting to raise one thousand ($1,000) dollars it is very necessary that we let busy to raise this small sum, which in itself is very inadequate to meet the demands of so extensive trip. So let us see that every penny of this is raised. This plea comes to you and to me to Individuals and Circles. Therefore, we exhort you, not to put off, but give this your undivided attention at once. And we assure you, that much good will eventually accrue from the small sacrifice that we are called upon at this time to make. Let us make it cheerfully and give until we can feel an out-pouring of the Holy Spirit, for it is always more blessed to give than to receive. The first Clarion Call was made for September 1st. As Treasurer of this Fund, we have not had reasons to feel over enthusiastic over the way the different organizations or circles are responding to this peculiar cause. While some have already sent in their portion, many others have not yet needed the call. The second call is made for October 1st. Christian Women, may these few remarks serve as a general reminder ad awaken us to a sense of activity. Then let us meet the demand, thereby clearing the way by November 1st, for this great voyage of our deserving President. With every good wish for the Womanhood of the State, I am.

D4, ATLANTA, GA. spot, where we had the mishap coming up the pike. We had no trouble. We passed a touring car. On it was a penant reading, Montgomery, West Va. He gave the sign in a laquid sort of away for us to go ahead. Robinson went ahead. Then later as we were running at a good speed, this car shot ahead. Robinson looked up with a sun prised air. "What does he mean?" he muttered. "What the fun began." FULL OF CURVES. I warned Robinson that he was running too close to the white tourist. He slowed up and lengthened the distance for the road at this point was full of curves. Then one of the white men could be seen leaning out and looking behind to see what speed we were making. Evidently he was puzzled as to the make of the car. He struck an open road. Robinson opened up the throttle. He gained on the white party. Then he blew for him and he finding that there was absolutely nothing else to do moved to the right and the Stanley passed him like a frightened deer. He waved as we passed. "That man had his foot on the accelerator," said Robinson. He was doing all that he could do." z COMPLIMENTED HIS COMPETITOR That was a question for chaufours to settle. All I know is that we were soon out of his reach. We had slowed down and were going up a slight incline at the speed the law allows when suddenly our white friend passed as and waving his hand, surprisingly said, "Pretty good." We so overtook him again and from that time on he was behind us. THROUGH THE CLOUDS I had never in all my experience either on the train or in an automobile experienced such a feeling or witnessed such a sight as came to me on that morning trip from Staunton as the Stanley climbed the Afton mountain. The clouds had lowered and as we ascended that 4 or five mile grade, we found ourselves in the clouds. You could not see more than 20 foot away. The car must go slowly in order to avoid a collision and it was with a creepy, peculiar feeling that we felt our way going down the steep grade on the other side. THAT FOGGY GLOOM Out of the deep foggy gloom came another car coming up grade and we were within ten feet of each other head on before a stop could be made. Then each disappeared to the other in the foggy gloom. It was some time later, after Robinson had piloted skillfully. By around some of the most difficult curves that we arrived at Afton Station on the C, and O. R. R., where no fog rested. As for the valley below it was hidden in the midst and it was with a sigh of relief that we reached the valley, where we could travel as before. At Charlottesville we met Capt. Conn. At Mr. G. P. Inge's residence, we made ourselves at home. Here we filled up with kerosene and Robinson carried him and his daughter to the train. She was leaving for Hartshorn College. She could have made the trip with us but her ticket had been purchased. A RAILWAY TRAIN It was 12:30 when we left Charlottsville for Richmond I had called the office of the Charlottsville Messenger but all were out except the female compositors. We were soon on our way to Richmond by one of the roughest detour routes in the country. We had little of interest. CAR TROUBLE We had quite an experience in leaving Charlottesville by one of the detours. The route was narrow and only one car could pass at a time. An over hanging rock slightly damaged our front right hand fender. We were at the crossing of a small stream, when we saw another car just across and it left barely enough room for us to pass. A white gentleman with a troubled look asked if any of us know anything about the church. His was out of commission. Robinson thought he could fix it for him but, other cars coming caused me to hasten and I turn ed him over to the tender mercies of other automobilists, who evidently knew more about a gas car than we did. We were all trying to get home. Just after we left Trevillians, the C. and O. train which left Charlottesville before we did pass us and when we reached Louisa it was just pulling out. We went on our way and had no trouble. We were the object of much curiosity at every stopping place. We saw the train from Richmond at Mineral. We had reached Glen Allen, when we saw our friend, who had test ed the speed of the Stanley further up the road. ON SCHEDULE TIME When we had stopped in Charlottesville, he had evidently kept on. We exchanged salutations and left him. We had passed Solomon's Store and then we continued our way down Brook Road until we had entered Chamberlayne avenue. On leaving we had soon Mr. R. B. Beard. Now his daughter stood on the side of the roadway. We went to Hartshorn College to enquire for Miss Inge. She had not arrived. The Stanley had won out in the run from Charlottesville against the Chesapeake and Ohio train. We left Dr. E. R. Jefferson at his residence and soon were standing in front of the Planet Office. The time was 5 P. M. JOHN MITCHELL, JR. Read The Planet and keep informed as to what our Race is doing in world and domestic affairs After thirteen years of pastorate of the Union Lovel Baptist church, the Rev. C. T. Martin, B. Th., called the church together on the 19th inst.. After devotional services, the Rev. preached from Isaiah 61:1. They had a spiritual time in serving the Lord; immediately Rev. Martin offered his resignation, o take effect Sunday, September 28, 1921. The members were reluctant in receiving the same; but after the Pastor stated that he felt that the Lord was in the destiny change; therefore he respectfully resigned. After comments of regret by a great many of the members present, the resignation was received to take effect on the date mentioned. Rev. C. T. Martin has pastored this church for 13 years successfully. The Church has been newly remodeled and has added a great many to the church under his 13 years of pastorate. We do pray that God will bless him where ever he may go and crown his labors with success. On the night of the 25th, our brother preached his farewell sermon to a large audience of his friends and ete. The funeral services of Miss Frances Greene were held at the Mt. Calvary Baptist Church last Friday evening. Rev. Cobbs preached a wonderful sermon, assisted by Rev. O. B. Simms. We had a fine gathering in our Sun day School last Sunday, the Superintendent Mr. John Foster being absent on account of illness the school was presided over by Miss Alma Logan the Assistant Superintendent. Let every one who has in their possession an application blank for the Teachers' Training Class turn the same in for tutoring no later than tomorrow morning. We were blessed with the presence of Miss Sophonla Spikes of New York, a member of the Evangelistic Staff, of the National Baptist convention. She remained in each service of the day and rendered some sweet music. She was at the Rising Mt. Zilon Baptist church at the night services. Rev. John Griffin was also a visitor in our midst he is from Chesterfield Co. 11:30 A. M. our pastor preached a soul stirring sermon. Subject: "Jonas as the Type of Christ!" The secret of such preaching lies in the fact of the great prayer meeting Wednesday Evenings and the devotional service held in the Pastor's study, thus before preaching. At night he used as his theme: "The Contrast of the Message of Jonas and Christ." Who ever misses these services loses a great treat. Live singing is had by the choir. 3:30 P. M. the Fulton Beneficial club No. 1 and Juvenile held its 11th anniversary at the above church. The sermon was preached by the Rev. Cobbs. A unique program was rendered. Mr. Richard Nelson was Master of Ceremonies he handled the situation spen didly. Teachers and members of the Sister Churches can join the Training Class of our Sunday School by complying with the rules and regulations as stated on the blanks. CHICAGO NOTES.

Hayden's Pure Herb Medicines. After waiting thirteen years and have not suffered from the horrible disease, Gravel, I desire to make a statement to L. J. Hayden. Thirteen years ago twelve leading physicians of my city treated me for kidney trouble and gravel without the desired benefit. These doctors advised me to be operated on, as that was the only chance for me. I was advised to go and get some of L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicine and try to be here operated on. I did so, and in twenty four hours after using his medicines I passed at least a half dozen gravel, some as big as a large pea. Since that time I have not suffered with the gravel. I highly recommend L. J. Hayden's medicine to all suffering humanity. I am. J. A. PAGE. 4 Auburn Ave., Richmond Va. Richmond, Va. July 8, 1915.

Hayden of Remarkable Cure—Doctors Had Given Her Up—A Few Bottles Accomplish Marvelous Results L. J. Hayden, Richmond, Va. Dear Sir,—A grateful heart and an appreciation of your medical skill prompt me to make a statement of my daughter's case. I can truthfully say I believe your medicine saved my daughter's life. When she began your medicine she had been given up by several doctors, and my friends had lost all hope of her recovery. She had suffered seven months with dropeal trouble and Bright's disease, her body swelling to an enormous size, totally blind for several days at a time, also delirious at her worst stages, finally going into spasms, as many as twenty five on thirty in one hour, going from one right into another; her skin peeled off, also losing her finger nails, and continuing in that condition for months. Such was her condition when I commenced on Mr. L. J. Haydon's remedies. After using his medicines only nine days she began to improve, and now at the end of two months there is no symptom nor sign of the old disease. He assured that whenever I have it in my power I shall recommend your invaluable remedies. I thanks you a thousand times for what you have done for my daughter and for the kindness which you have extended to me throughout. Wishing you long and continued success, I am, with much gratitude, Yours truly, (Signed) J. WILSON, 417 W. Seventh St., Manchester, Va. L. J.
