Coloridge E. Davis was arrested last Wednesday afternoon upon a charge of careless and reckless driving on Adams St. between Clay and Leigh Sts. and injuring an 8-year old child named Constance Anderson The child's mother, Martha Anderson lives at 512 Adams St. She is employed in Ginter Park and was at work at the time. Mr. Davis was in a highly nervous condition as a result of his experience. He said the child ran directly in front of the car. The right side of the girl's head was bloody and a knot as large as a walnut had formed just above the right eye.
WANTED TO KEEP CHILD
FROM HOSPITAL.
Dr. O. B. H. Bowser was huckleby at hand and administered immediate attention. It was some time before the party in the house would agree to the removal of the child to St. Philip's Hospital, insisting that nothing should be done until the child's mother, for whom she had sent, had arrived. Finally the ambulance surgeon removed the child and the woman went with it to the hospital.
Mr. Davis was in the parlor of Dr. Bowser's home during this time. He was recognized for his appearance in the Juvenile Court last Thursday morning. Mr. Davis is instructor of aesthetic dancing at the Y. W. C. A., a member of the famous Johnson's Happy Pals Orchestra and very popular among the younger set of Richmond.

MR. CARTER SAYS WHITE RACE
A UNIT AGAINST THE NEGRO.
To the Editor of The Planet:
Your timely editorial on the Race question of the 21st inst. is much to the point regarding a young man of our group whose application had failed of recognition by the War Department. There is always one point to be considered by those of our group who aspire to enter higher government positions, no matter what may be the idea of constitutional rights—that is, the white race the world over is one and the same race when it comes to the full recognition of the Negro, for we learn by observation that in every walk of life and in every sense of the word they decidedly favor one another before the Negro is considered.
We need not go to South Carolina or to Georgia to find race prejudice. We find it good and thick here in Boston and in the State of Massachusetts. In thought and in sentiment the white race North and South speak and act as one people when it comes to the question of full recognition and manhood rights of the Negro, making it evident that the Negro is not wanted in the higher walks of social and civil life of the white world. Shall the writer mention here the name of the brilliant Colonel Charles Young whose
hopes were defeated and ambition murdered?
Mr. Calvin Coolidge, like Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Wilson and those who may follow to the Presidential chair will inevitably to the sentiment of the white world regarding the full recognition of the Negro.

COLORED MAN CHARGES PEONAGE.
ATLANTA, GA. June 4—Governer or Clifford Walker has started a rigid inquiry on charges made by James Felton, colored, at Danville Va. that he had been kept in peonage for nearly a year and a half on a farm owned by a "Dr. King" in Oglethorpe County, Ga.
He said that fifty others were being held in a virtual state of slavery there and that they were guarded by twenty-five men to prevent their escape. Felton also added that five prisoners were murdered during the time that he was on the farm.
He said that he was on his way to Virginia from Florida and when his automobile broke down near the plantation of "Dr. King" he was shanghaied there, escaping on two weeks ago.
The Governor is inclined to doubt the truth of the sensational charges. It was pointed out today that Dr. W. R. King of Oglethorpe County has been indicted on charges of peonage, involving not only colored men but also two or three white men. Dr. King is a prominent doctor and farmer. His trial will begin in the United States Court in Athens on Monday.

TWO THOUSAND HEAR DR. BECTON NIGHTLY AT FIFTH ST. CHURCH
GOSPEL FEAST PARTY
WINS THE HEART OF
RICHMOND.
A clean, straight-forward life and a square deal for God has been the plan of Dr. G. Wilson Becton during the past weeks of spiritual blessing to Richmond while "The World's Gospel Feast Party" revival has progressed rapidly. Overflowing crowds are rushing in at an early hour for all services. Many were turned away Sunday afternoon when Dr. Becton preached a special sermon to women and girls from the subject: "The True Woman and the Untrue Woman." Truly, every mother and daughter thanked God for Dr. Becton Sunday afternoon. The message was a real heart to heart talk.
The Commencement service for the graduate nurses of Saint Philip's School of Nursing, of which Dr. W. T. Sanger is President and Miss Elizabeth C. Riaz, Director of Nursing was witnessed by more than 1800 persons Sunday night. Dr. Becton preached "Is Your Religion a Form or a Force?" The graduates and everyone present left with the assurance that His grace is sufficient for every trial of life. Dr. R. E. Blackwell President of Randolph-Macon College for Men, delivered the Commencement Address on Monday night, at which pins and awards of honor were presented to the six young women who are just beginning their service for humanity.
Dr. Becton will preach a special sermon for men only Sunday afternoon at three o'clock sharp. The service Sunday morning will begin prompt at eleven o'clock.
The name "The World's Gospel Feast Party" is certainly well chosen to introduce Dr. Becton and is gifted wife, accompanied by the splendid group of well trained and cultured young people. The world is made welcome, not only to the feast of strong gospel preaching by the evangelist, but the party of music and song by Madam Becton and the orchestra.
There is something wonderful in music; words are wonderful, but music is more wonderful. It speaks not to our thoughts as words do, it speaks straight to our hearts and spirits, to the very core and root of our souls. Music soothes us, stirs us up, melts us to tears; it is a language by itself just as perfect, just as divine just as blessed as speech. Music can be truly called the speech of angels—even the speech of God Himself.
Richmond is proud that Dr. Becton has been convinced on his first visit, the while, not unlike other parts of the party, the world with its many fascinating influences and motivations to join in its great program of destroying forces, has a firm hold upon the youth, there are some even in Richmond, who are brave enough to step out and take a stand for God.
We happily announce that Mr Paul Morton, promising young man of this city, who is a gifted solist and who is very popular among the younger set, has accepted the invitation to join "The World's Gospel Feast Party" and dedicate his life and talent to the sacred service of God.
While spiritual and material blessings have been filling our hearts with joy, there have been occasions to pause under the shadow of sad events during the past week. Pastor Morris preached the funeral sermon of Sister Gertrude Chaffin of 600 E. Leigh St. last Friday. Brother C. A. Puryear, a devout soldier of the cross and a faithful member of this church was instantly killed by his

Shepherds Hold Big Anniversary Service
A Brilliant Display Made in Annual Parade Here Mrs. Ora Brown Stokes Scores Heavily Dr. A. W. Brown Delivers Eloquent Discourse.
Following a spectacular parade, featuring a female uniform rank and a 50-piece band, all newly uniformed in natty outfits the Shepherds and Daughters of Bochehem packed the spacious Sixth Mount Zion Baptist Church last Sunday afternoon and observed one of the best anniversary day programs ever held in the trafical circles of Richmond. Mrs. Ora Brown Stokes, Grand Presiding Shepherd of the Order was honor guest of the local Folds for the day. The annual sermon was delivered by Rev. A. W. Brown, pastor of Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist Church. Using as a basis of his discourse, the task placed upon the Israelites in Goshen by the Egyptians, that making bible scripture with With Scripture and woe wit he pictures the benefits of hindrances in a high-powered civilization. He showed that the road to success was beset with handicaps. The Shepherds and Daughters were greatly inspired by his great sermon, which will serve to motivate them toward definite achievements.
Madam Ora Brown Stokes, Grand Presiding Shepherd never appeared to better advantage. She outlined the work of the Order and the program of her administration. She has begun a program of country-wide propagation of the Order and an improvement in fraternal operation which will place the Shepherds well in the forefront of fraternal in America. She was given an ovation. The popular Grand Secretary-Treasurer Amos C. Clarke, who has given a life to the Order, inspired the audience with statistical information relative to the remarkable growth of the Order during the past three years. He emphasized the recent campaign here in Richmond, when one thousand new members were inducted into the Fold.
Other numbers on the program were selections by the Shepherds Chorus, Juvenile Chorus and a fine quartet from the Martha A. Morris Juvenile Chorus. The welcome was received by Deacon R. A. Preston and responded to by Lawyer C. A. McKenzie. A splendid offering was lifted by Mrs. Susie J. Williams, Mrs. Eliza A. Borkley, Miss Eugeria the Baker and R. C. Mitchell, Mrs. S. Sparrow had charge of the collection from the Folds. Rev. J. M. Griffin conducted the devotions and Rev. C. E. Smith offered benediction. Mrs. Susie H. Robinson handled the program in an admirable manner.
Among the visiting guest were Rev. George H. Sims, of New York; Dr. J. U. King, of Washington, District Superintendent M. E. Church; Mrs. Dizzie McPherson, Deputy of Newport News. After these came Mrs. Emma Winn, who presented tokens to faithful workers. The parade was in charge of General Thomas Lecosso, assisted by Colonel William H. Milton. Unity Company was under command of Captain Mary Cousins. Lieutenants Mary Christie and Kulah Cunningham. (Concluded in Notes on Page 4)

Funeral Director Alexander Hill Dies on St. Car. Popular Citizen Attends Elks' Home-Goes West to His Death
Alexander Hill, assistant funeral director of the A. D. Price undertaking establishment died suddenly Wednesday night at about 10:20, at Harrison and Main Sts. He left the Elks' Home, 4th and Clay Sts. at about 10 o'clock. About 10:30 P. M. an officer called up Funeral Director A. D. Price, Jr. and asked if they had a man employed there, named Alexander Hill. The night man replied in the affirmative. "Well, he is dead at Harrison and Main Sts. Send up and get him." No time was lost in doing so. Hill was taken sick on the street car and died before he reached this point.
COLLAPSED AND DIED.
He collapsed and died almost immediately. He had foamed at the mouth. He was one of the best known undertaking men in the city and officiated in most of the funerals for A. D. Price Jr. A long line of his friends and acquaintances has thronged the establishment of Funeral Director Price ever since the news of his death went out.
DIED SUDDENLY.
Tom Goodman, who resides in the rear of 523 N. Third St. expired suddenly, while sitting in a chair at the entrance of the alley on Leigh St. between Third and Fourth Sts. He had been taken ill some distance away and was being conveyed home by friends, who supported him on either side as he walked. When he reached this point, his strength failed and a neighbor loaned a chair in which he was seated. A few moments later, he foamed at the mouth and was a corpse. His remains were removed to the morgue of Funeral Director A. D. Price, Jr. in the next block. This took place around 9 P. M. Wednesday.

Sinclair Calls Sentence Attempt To Satisfy Political Expediency
7
HARRY F. SINCLAIR
WASHINGTON, D. C. - HARRY F. Sinclair, millionaire oil operator, sentenced to three months in jail and a fine of $800 for contempt of the United States Senate in refusing to answer questions asked him during the Teapot Dome oil lease investigation in 1924, declared his sentence an experiment to justify political expedient. "I was today sentenced," said M. Sinclair, "for having refused to answer certain questions propounded by a committee of the Senate. The sentence of the court was foreclosed. As a citizen, I should have liked better if the sentence had shown to be more openly of the Senate and less of the court but it was a clever mixture. My testimony before the investigators of the Senate apparently failed to satisfy political curiosity. Whether I serve a day or a year is of general interest but it is of general interest that the judicial branch of our Government long thought to be independent of the

"It should be known that I appeared six times before the Senate committee and fully answered all questions and produced all private books and papers asked of me. I will be referred to the courts by an act of Congress that I reduced to answer.
"It am sentenced as an experiment to justify political expediency. In my sentence is involved not merely my personal rights but the rights of every decent, high minded, liberty loving citizen who carries his principle above self interest.
"In my opinion the sentence was political rather than judicial. It must judicialize the under independent judicial principle. Mr. Displays announced that he will appeal from the sentence to the United States Supreme Court, if necessary. He was released on 15,000 bond, pending a hearing of his appeal by the District Court of Appeal."

FIELD CIRCU
ELEPHANT AND TRUCK TUG OF WAR
A Graham Brothers truck with its 35-40 horsepower engine recently challenged a big circus elephant to a tug of war. Who won? The judges of the affair are still arguing about that because the chain broke after each of the contestants had appeared on the verge of victory. But following the affray, the truth went about its work of transporting circus supplies at a speed of 35 miles an hour while the elephant ambled off to the hay pile at the rate of two miles an hour.
American people today the modern household cooks much of its food with electricity and is rapidly replacing the troublesome ice box, because it has been proved that even temperatures, which are impossible with ice-filled boxes, can be maintained with the electric refrigerators. Ice cream taught Americans a great deal about the value of frozen delicacies. With modern electric refrigeration the household of today is not restricted to just those dishes which can be made with the freezers but is now able to enter a whole new field of icees and frozen delights which were once only to be had in high-priced dining palaces.

Just as the use of gas and electricity brought out many complete new lines of cooking equipment therefore a great variety of dishes before unknown to the culinary art modern refrigeration has developed many new delights.
Scientists have determined through many experiments that the sense of taste is the best developed of all senses at birth and that, as humans grow older, tastes are rapidly cultivated to such an extent that it is no small problem to satisfy them all. Civilized men and women accustomed to the turrities of life have far from pleased if restricted to the fare served to our ancestors of even a few generations ago. Electricity brought in many new cooking implements with which the culinary artist is able to produce dishes having flavors never before known. With the cooking of new dishes came the necessity for better means of preserving food before cooking. Not only from the standpoint of keeping the food stuff free from destructive bacteria, but creating new cold dishes and frozen delicacies the matter of refrigeration became a natural development.
Proper domestic cooling and freezing are now as important as proper heating and cooking. The well constructed and equipped household is today prepared to be conducted with the maximum of cleanliness and freedom from germ contamination. Doctors and dietitians have persistently educated the public to the point where proper selection, care and preparation

|, Doctors and good pharmacists
know that Cod Liver Oil is full of
vitamines that make flesh, create ap-
petite, build up the power to resiat
disease and puts good selid flesh on
skinny men and women.
But it's repulsive in taste and smell
and nearly every stomach rebels
against It
So now men and women who keep
up with the times are taking Mc:
Coy’s Cod Liver Oil Compound Tab-
lets—rich in flesh producing, health
building, strength creating vitamines
and as easy to take as candy.
Try them for 30 days if you want
to fill out those scrawny hollows in
chest, cheeks and neck and gain
strength and vigor, And bear this
in mind if they don’t help you in
that time any druggist anywhere
will return your money—But de-
mand McCoy's 60 tablets 60 cents.

EDITOR MOORE'S OBSERVATIONS
(New York Age)
"The Richmond Planet printed the following unique advertisement as a reading notice at the bottom of a news column on the first page:
"Some people complain about life but they praise death when the remains are handled by Funeral Director. . . . His increasing popularity is caused by promo service and up-to-date equipment. Phone . . . ."
"Evidently the praise must be voiced by the survivors, so that leaves the opinion of the principal actor in the ceremony a matter of conjecture. Probably there will be no rush of suicides in Richmond to give support to this glowing testimonial."

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 so and get some of L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicine and try before being operated on. I did so, and in ninety-four hours after using his medicines, I passed at least half down 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.

This Volume tells the world how
the Negro has won his place and his
right to a voice in the affairs of
mankind against prejudice, ridicule,
race hatred, and almost insurmount-
able obstacles, Many striking test
monials from’ the Secretary of War
and Army Officers of high rank and
reputation are set forth in no unéer-
tain terms. The following ringing
words of Major General Bell, ad-
dressed to the famous “Buffaloes”,
the 367th Regiment, are typical of
the high regard and respect of Amer
fean and European officers tor our
colored troops, Every private in this
regiment and most of the officers
were Negroes. The General sald:—
“This is the best disciplined and
best drilled and best spirited rogt-
ment that has been under my com
mand at this cantonment. I predict-
ed fast fall that Colonel Moss would
have the best regiment stationed here
and you men have made my predic-
tion come true, I would lead you in
battle against any army in the world
with every confidence in the” out:
come”.
