Big Raid at Second and Leigh Streets. VOLUME XLIV, NO. 13 POLICE Charge The Accus Big Raid a and Lei A sensation was caused in the neighborhood of Second and Leigh Streets Wednesday 2nd inst., when the Detective Department launched a draget incident to the arrest of a child named Lucille Bundy and whose age is variously estimated to be around 13 or 14 years. It was stated that neckties, pens and other things had been stolen and sold to various persons, including members of the troup, now playing at the Hippodrome Theatre. Warrants were issued against Edna Johnson, Annie May Cox, Gertrude Cox, Lucille Henderson, Matteie Snow, charging them with contributing to the moral delinquency of Lucille Bundy, a minor, while the warrant against Lucille Bundy charged her simply with being a delinquent child. MANY NAMED Lloyd Patterson, Herman Evans, Waverly Jordan were booked under similar charges. There has been no proof submitted to the court that any of them are guilty of the charges. All of them are protesting their innocence with the possible exception of Lucille, who it is claimed made certain admissions and charges.

SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH TO CALL PASTOR The members of the Second Baptist Church, Byrd Street between Second and First Streets, will meet next Monday night for the purpose of calling a pastor to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Rev. Z. D. Lewis, D. D. Deacon E. F. Johnson will preside. Rev. D. E. Smith, pastor of the Second Baptist Church of South Richmond will preach tomorrow and the indications are that he will lead all other candidates Monday night. Rev. A. S. Thomas, D. D. is leading the opposition forces here against the enunciation of the doctrine of evolution a denial of the story of creation as told in the Book of Genesis and the unbelief in the Virgin Birth He is an unce promising fundamentalist and insists that the Bible is the inspired Word of God from cover to cover. Rev. Charles S. Morris, D. D. takes the same position. The installation of the officers of the lodges and courts in this city took place last Monday night at the Pythonian Castle. Deputy Grand Chan collar George L. Branch and Deputy Grand Worthy Counseiller Lucy A. Cross officiated. FIFTH ST. BAPTIST CHURCH Dr. Charles S. Morris, Pastor. "Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised in the City of our God, in the mountain of his holiness." We are extending a cordial invitation to the public each week to come to our services and be helped by the wonderful series of sermons our pastor is preaching, both morning and night. Sunday, 11:30, Jan. 30: The congregation was held spellbound as Dr. Morris delivered the fourth message on "The second coming of Christ; from the subject: 'What the church is going to do up in the air.'" 1 Thes. 4:17. Several touching hymns were sung, bringing to our minds vividly idly the happy meeting with the loved ones who have gone before; and most joyfully of all, the meeting of our dear Saviour who has redeemed us. 3:30. In spite of the rain, the church was filled to its capacity with the many members and friends to witness the farewell testimonial services of Mrs Mary E Satterfield who is leaving the city this week for Philadelphia to be with her mother for an indesinite period. A very unique program was rendered: Mrs Ella O. Waller, mistress of ceremonies; music for the occasion by the Sixth Mt Zion Choir of which Mrs Louise Dean is directress. The entire program was made up of some of the best talents of Richmond. It is with much regret and a bit of sadness that we have to part with so faithful and so valuable a character as Mrs Satterfield. Her faithful service as organist and active work among the members is sincerely appreciated by her church and we shall pray God's richest blessings upon her and cherish an earnest hope for her return. Phila McGillery White has been chosen and will take charge of the organ Sunday. $:00 P. M.: Dr Morris brought to us the second of the night series on "Courtship and Marriage" from the subject "She became his wife and he loved her" Gen. 24. This sermon continued the story of Isaac and Rebecca. Prof. Nelson Williams, Jr was instructor last Wednesday night at the Bible Class and Teachers Meeting. His explanation on "Stewardship" was enlightening. Sunday, Feb 6th, 11:30: Dr. Morris will take up where the sermon ended last Sunday and preach from the subject "The man who feared the wrong thing," or "The Christian at the judgment seat of Christ." At 8:00 P. M. M: "He said he loved her; but would you think so from the way he treated her." This sermon will be the trial of a young man for the way he treated a young woman and the young (unmarried) women of Richmond will be the jury. Be on time so you will be able to pass in your verdict. To miss these sermons by Dr. Morris will be doing yourself an injustice. M T WARD. JOHNSON—TUNSTALL Mr. and Mrs. Charles H.

The Baptist Ministers Conference of Richmond and Vicinity held its weekly meeting last Monday morning at the Ebenene Baptist Church, Rev. J. E. Fountain, President; Rev. C. A. Cobb, Secretary. The feature of the meeting was the reading of a paper by Rev. W. H. Stokes Ph. D., who is pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist Church and a member of the faculty of Virginia Union University His subject was "The New Biblical Scholarship and the Minister." In discussing this subject the question of evolution and Modernism came to the front. Rev. Stokes took an intermediate view of the situation but emphasized the fact that we should be careful as to the nature of the instruction imparted to the students in the ministry. MANY SPEAK. Rev. D. J. Bradford, Rev. A. W. Brown, Rev. W. L. Ransome, Rev. Charles S. Morris Rev. C. A. Cobb Rev. W. T. Johnson and others commended Rev. Stokes on his paper. Rev. Dr. Johnson, however said that he heard a person compliment Rev. Stokes highly. He announced as between Fundamentalism and Modernism, he was the greatest "go between" he ever knew. The cause of the unrest was a paper delivered some weeks ago by Rev. Miles Mark Fisher, of Virginia Union University in which he espoused the cause of the Modernists. Last Monday, a resolution was passed endorsing him as a member of the Conference. REV. THOMAS EMPHATIC. Rev. Dr. Thomas on last Monday called for the expunging of this reference to him from the minutes and by a unanimous agreement. this was done. Rev. Dr. Thomas and Rev. Dr. Charles S. Morris are radical Fundamentalists and insist that the Bible shall be accepted in its entirety. The theory that man emanated from protoplasm or evolved from the monkey is especially repugnant to them. From conversations, it has been ascertained that the subject will come up in some form for further discussion. DR. HANCOCK TO DISCUSS SUBJECT. Rev. Gordon B. Hancock's subject, which dealt with virtually the same subject was "Combating the New Atheism." The advocates of Modernists doctrines do not accept the story of the Creation as told in the Book of Genesis and they also question the Virgin Birth of Jesus Christ Bring your your job printing.

RICHMOND IS RESPONDING TO THE APPEAL FOR FUNDS FOR THE STUDY OF NEGRO LIFE AND HISTORY. There is going on in this city, as in other parts of the country at this time, an effort to secure funds to help Dr. Carter G. Woodson and associates to continue their studies or researches in the history and life of Negroes in America, Africa and the Isles of the Seas. The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History is recognized by scientists and historians all over the world, as the best equipped organization or movement for unearthing the history and achievements of the African people. Several years ago, the association was given a grant of $25,000 by a Rockfeller agency to establish the work on a larger scale. It was the hope of the donors that their act would so inspire the colored people of America as to the worth of the work of the Association that they would properly maintain it, thereafter. For a year or more, the Association has been appealing to our people for a fund of $20,000 to continue its work, with very poor success. Virginia, the home State of Dr. Woodson, was assigned a quota of only $500 of this sum; and sad to relate, she had given only $75 of her quota at the close of the year. When this fact became known in Richmond several friends of the work decided to bring the matter to the attention of our group in this city. The following persons, along with many others whose names were not available for this report are now busy among friends, organizations and churches trying to secure funds to help the Association to continue its constructive work, in collecting and placing before the world the truth and grandeur of the part which Negroes have played in the civilization and progress of mankind.

The report last Wednesday night that a boy had stabbed his father to death at a residence on Fourth St. proved to be unfounded. It was later ascertained that the boy's stepfather was apparently maltreatting the boy's mother. He is said to have taken a knife from the table and stabbed his mother's husband. A surgeon treated the wounded man and despite efforts to secure information, Police Headquarters officials failed. It now seems that the difficulty has been smoothed over and mother, father and son are now in accord. They reside on North Fourth Street. HEALTH EDUCATION DEPT Mrs. Alice Smith Bowser, who has given many years of faithful and efficient services as a member of the management of the Phyllis Wheatley Branch and four years as Chairman of the Health Education Department term expired in January. It is largely through Mrs. Bowser's foresight thought and bigness of vision for the girls and young women of Richmond, that the Health Education Department was organized and functioned. Some of the high points achieved under Mrs. Bowser's leadership: 1. Observation of Health Month. Health Exhibition, depicting positive health for women and girls. 2. Classes in Aesthetics and Gym. 2.

Roff, heating and ventilating engineer, in an address here. "Not more than 3 per cent of the boys and girls in school in this country could be classed as perfect physical specimens," said Mr. Roff. The others have to struggle unclearly or less serious physical handicaps. "In face of this situation, school authorities have a deep responsibility but limited powers. Most schools have programs of health and physical education, and a few have clinics, but the utmost that the great majority of schools can provide for the pupils are the three essentials, sunlight, pure water and fresh air. "Strange as it may seem, fresh air in winter is the hardest of the three to assure to all pupils. Opening windows for ventilation has proved to be not only dangerous but futile.

Miami's rise as a racing center has been in keeping with that city's meteoric growth in winter sports generally. Although now only in its third year, the Miami Jockey Club meet is rated by turfmen as ranking in importance with meets of the Saratoga, Westchester and Kettering Racing Associations. This has been due primarily to the energy and enthusiasm of Joseph M. Smoot. How Smoot, a non-racing man from Buffalo came to put Miami on the racing map is one of the real romances of turfdom. Visiting that city four years ago, Smoot decided he'd like to make an investment there. He consulted with Frank B. Shutt, publisher of the Miami Herald, as to what he could "Build a race course." Shutt advised. Smoot did it, organized the Miami Jockey Club and in three years has made his "season" the prime attraction in winter racing, with more than half a million dollars bung up as prizes.

After waitinp thirty 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 before using operated on. I did so, 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. Richmond, va I received your treatment O.

This, as Will Rogers would say, is written on the train traveling from Washington to New York. Millions of Americans will be glad to hear that the President, seen two hours ago, seemed in perfect health, full of energy, and, amid all the Nicaragua-Mexico excitement, calm as a Vermont elm. What appears to interest the President just now is internal improvement, projects for canals from the farms and facilities to the sea, and development of unused waters for power and irrigation, in particular development of the Colorado River. President Coolidge speaks just so fast, and no faster. He knows every word that he is going to say before he says it. Words do not come out and surprise him, as happens with others. You can't hurry him, or choose his subject for him. And as for holding him back, when he means to go in a certain direction, why, to "draw up the Leviathan with a hook" would be child's play, compared with it. Chinese mobs are looting Christian churches. Too bad, and it fills us with horror. Americans, British, French and other travelers brought home all sorts of loot from Chinese temples after the Boxer uprising. But that was different, the Chinese are only The Lun SKI-RUNNERS AT QUEBEC Quebec, lovely as all times, is possibly even more delightful in winter when the old historical building emerges from huge drifts of snow and the entire city presents a Carnival appearance for the winter sports—now known throughout the world. Quebec, perched high up on a rock overlooking the majestic St. Lawrence with quaint old buildings sprawling up the hills, they are the clidal city that affords a lovely background for sport enthusiasts resplendent in their blanket coats and striking sport costumes. The frosty air and sparkling snow, colored by myriad beams of light, add to the beauty of Quebec in winter. An atmosphere of festivity pervades the city, and the white sports is the Chateau Frontenac where the Carnival spirit is at its height and reacts on visitors and citizens alike, as the Mardi Gras in New Orleans; pleasure, comradeship of the great-out-doors, and joviality are the keynote of the hour. 米 David Chaplin, never very very well, has lost 18 pounds since his most worries began. The worst illness is MENTAL illness. Chaplin has made millions happy and later made anybody unhappy, would seem to have a just complaint against fate. The Senate rejects the Lausanne treaty, so this country remains cut off from official acquaintance with Turkey and that energetic dictator, Kemal Pasha. The treaty is rejected because it doesn't provide adequate protection for Christians, or any solution of the eternal Armenian question. The rejection of the treaty is largely a triumph for Christians missionaries. Twenty was the average age at which men died in the year 1858. In 1850 the average age was forty. In 1875 it was forty-five, and now it is fifty-eight. The able Dr. Mayo supplies those figures. With the right kind of living, ten years can be added to present average, and we begin wise living at the right age. The famous Luigi Cornaro, however, given up to die after forty, lived wisely and passed 100. American business men, Dr. Mayo says, "lack girth control." Too much fat means shorter life. The dangerous age for woman is sixteen to eighteen. The dangerous age for man is from fifty to fifty-five. At that age he becomes foolish. Little things are important in big things. Mr. Blume, president of the Western Electric Company, tells you that telephoning across the Atlantic Ocean is made possible by a small object manufactured from Rochelle salts. And now the British manual for Royal Air Force pilots orders them to chew gum as they come down from high altitudes. Chewing gum creates saliva, and that keeps the flier swallowing. The act of swallowing relieves pressure on the ear drums. "Fearfully and wonderfully made" is correct. Cats near Bakersfield California, can sympathize with Midas, who changed into gold everything he touched, and nearly starved. California's cats were cheered, then horrified, by rolling waves of migrating mice. First they ate some; then ran from them in horror. Too much, even of mice, is too much. ure of Old Quebec in in Quebec promises to be gayer and even more attractive than previous ones.

D. WINTER-DAY SUGGESTIONS. In days, when the front door is kept closed as much as possible, and the windows are jealous and guarded—when ventilation has discomfort along with its purity influences, I cannot help think of the increased liability of infection within the winter quarters of those who live in the frigid temperatures of our northern states. The outdoor members of our families are abroad during the day, either from choice or necessity. Being exposed, they "pick up" colds, bronchial infections, throat disturbances febrile in character, and, certainly communicable. They bring their complaints home with them. Children going to school are extremely liable to contract lung or throat diseases, by their association with groups some of whom are almost certain to be carriers of respiratory germs. Somebody in the family may be tubercular—a most serious infection. What I am driving at is, to avoid the spread of disease in the home where we spend our evenings, or should, if we do not. I do not like to hear of colds "going through families," and I can convinced that such misfortune can be prevented by intelligent precaution. Under no circumstance should expectorated matter be permitted to dry within the sitting-room or bed-room. The handkerchief used by a sufferer should be thrown in a vessel of water when soiled. Then, coughs should be carefully disciplined; a hard cough will hurl bacteria ten feet. It may be deadly to sit in front of a tubercular who coughs immoderately without training for safety. It is just as easy to dispose of expectorated matter before it dries, and sickness may be prevented by kindly restriction. Try it in your home. NEXT WEEK ABUSE OF PRIVILEGE Winter GOING DOWN 23. Many of the finest teams on the continent will be entered this year. The old city walls will no longer be neglected by the people of Quebec during the winter season, for a bob-sled run will be built on the walls and finish on the Explainade. These old stones which know so many secrets of historical days—for Quebec is the birth-place of America—will have many secrets from figures seen in the moonlight, two and two on the old grey walls. Toboganaging, ski-ing, snow shooting, curling and hockey are all popular sports in Quebec, which is one of the greatest centers of winter sports in North America. THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND' VIRGINIA HAGEN SINKING TA 20-15007 PALY Oil Well "Shooter" Has the World's Most Dangerous Job POURING "NITRO" LIKE MULKI OLD BURSTING FROM A SUNCLAIR WELL The Trans-continental traveller through Canada invariably carries along his gold clubs and spends some happy hours on the links at Victoria and Vancouver. There is splendid golf on the British Columbia coast during the winter months and the climate is mild with very little. Any snow to mar the enjoyment of the game. The beauty of situation and sportiness of the hazards in a country that combines mountain, forest and sea, are unassessed anywhere in the world. Colwood, at Victoria, is particularly sporting, while in Vancouver, Shaughnessy Heights and Jericho Clubs are well known and Langara is fast gaining an enviable International reputation. Langara was recently built by the Canadian Pacific Railway which has done a lot to provide good golf courses in British Columbia. Walter Hagen, one of the most expert professional golfers of the day, played at Langara recently. Oil Well "Shooter POURING "NITRO" LIKE MILKI CHICAGO—What is probably the most hazardous job in the world is "shooting" oil wells. Nitroglycerin is used. It is a liquid, one of the most powerful explosives known and is characterized by its extreme sensitivity. Wells that start spontaneously are few. Oil nearly always is found in some one of a variety of geologic formations which it is necessary to break up by explosion. Mer daring enough to drive the ends of the quail. Lawbreakers Beware!

OST DANGEROUS JO OLD BUSTING FROM A BINGCLAR WELL merely an incident. Sometimes a hundred feet of the cylinders of nitro are sent down. They may be exploded by dropping an iron rod down on them, perhaps with a detonating cap attached. In a well several thousand feet deep there may be no sign of the explosion of the explosion of the rumble and a slight lifting of the casing. Then after a nerve racking moment comes a rush of dry gas or salt water—failure—or a burst burst of gas and oil that may tear the derrick to pieces, but that brings success.

While no merger has definitely been completed and in fact has been officially completed it is logical to assume that if such a move was Mr. Merselse because of his long and wide experience in the mail-order merchandising field his unquestioned ability as a leader and his deep knowledge of economic conditions would be the directing head of the combined organizations.

Positively Relieves PAIN Disheartened sufferers from the sharp knife-like pains, the dull throbbing, continuous aches which so often accompany kidney troubles and liver affections can find welcome relief by putting on a Johnson's Red Cross Kidney Plaster. This will bring almost immediate relief from the terrible suffering, and will not interfere with, but will positively assist any other treatment which your physician has prescribed. Johnson's Red Cross Kidney Plaster is not to be considered as a remedy in any sense for these organic derangements—your physician must be consulted and his treatment taken for remedying hte underlying causes. Johnson's Red Cross Kidney Plaster warms and soothes, and its medication at once begins to be absorbed through the skin directly to the affected parts. Its beneficial results are continued as long as the plaster remains on the body. Positively relieves pain. Be sure to ask the druggist for the big Red Cross Kidney Plaster with the red flannel back.
