THE RICHMOND PLANET N. Y. ELKS MUST VACATE INJUNCTION. Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson Not to Name Cleveland, Ohio-- Time Limit Set K.ofP.Leaders Exclude Competing Candidates Drastic Action Taken at Newp't News=Dissension Rents Order. VOLUME XLIV, NO. 34 N. Y. Grand Exa K.ofP. Drastic A LOCAL E Federal Judge Clarke sitting in Newark, N.J. last Monday is reported to have ruled that the Grand Lodge of the I. B. P. O. Elks cannot meet in Ohio, for the reason that Ohio has a law against Negro Elks. It provides in the injunction that the New York Elks are given twenty days to have the injunction in New York State against the Elks vacated. On falling to do this the Grand Exalted Ruler is authorized to convene the Grand Lodge in some other city and State, subject to the approval of the Court. It is understood that the New York Elks will now make an effort to have the injunction in New York State annuled in accordance with the ruling of this Court. There is some doubt as to their ability to have this done in time for the session of the Grand Lodge in August. NEW YORK LODGES GET WRIT TO PREVENT SHIFTING OF MEETING TO CLEVELAND (N. Y. Times, June 24) J. Finley Wilson of Washington, D. G, Grand Exalted Ruler of the Improved, Benevolent, Protective Order of Elks of the Woldid, the Grand Lodge and other officers are restrained from taking any steps to take the national convention of that Order of Elks of the World, the land or any other city. The order was issued at Newark yesterday by Federal Judge Runyon on complaint of Manhattan Lodge 45 and I. B. Roe of Monarch Lodge 4, both of New York City, and Thomas Brown an official of Imperial Lodge 127. Membership in the order is restricted to colored men. Yesterday, as Wilson marched in the parade in connection with the State Convention of the order in Orange, N. J., the order was served on him by a Deputy United States Marshal. Because the New York lodges have objected to the "high handed man" in which Wilson and George E. Bates of Newark, Secretary of the Grand Lodge, have administered the affairs of the Grand Lodge and be cause the officers fear they will fail of re-election, they have conspired to have the convention, place changed to Cleveland, the complaint says. The dates announced for the convention are August 22 to 27. According to the complaint Wilson receives $4,020 salary, and this, with expenses, gives him an income of about $20,000 annually from the order. There are 150,000 members in the order. WEDDING RECEPTION A brilliant reception was tendered Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Neal, on Wednesday evening, June 22nd, at the residence of the bride's parents. Mr. and Mrs. John R. Cogbill, 114 E. 18th Street, South Richmond. The house was artistically decorated and the beautifully shaded electric lamps added to the beauty of the scene. The younger social set was well represented and the handsomely gowned girls and correctly dressed boys added to the colorful scene. The bride was beautiful in the latest modiste's creation, done in white crepe, and the groom was resplendent in conventional attire. The attendants were in evening costume. The guest were served delicacies and the gay concourse departed at midnight. The groom, a former Richmond boy is a resident of Philadelphia. The bride, formerly Mary Garland Cogbill is a member of the faculty of Armstrong High School. After the reception a surprise dansant was given at the Love and Union Hall by friends of the couple. They left the next day for Philadelphia. Pythians at Newp't News NEWPORT NEWS, VA., June 24 --The grand Lodge K. of P. which has been in session here since Tuesday morning ended in a condition that has caused old timers to regard with dismay. It portends the dissolution of one of the best Grand Lodges in the country. Peace and harmony have prevailed in both departments for more than a quarter of a century. Tuesday and Wednesday and even Thursday, the forces led by Grand Vice-Chancellor F. E. Puryear were in the ascendency. W. R. F. Crowell, W. H. C. Brown and Joseph R. Pollard had lost favor. This was emphasized, when the report of Grand Keeper of Records and Seal Eugene West supported the statements as to the bad financial condition of the Order in the State and the payment of funds of the grand Lodge to W. H. C. Brown and Joseph R. Pollard. A STAGGERING BLOW. The staggering blow came when West showed that the Grand Lodge was practically without funds and when Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green, as late as Thursday made the announcement that he had not received a penny of the amount of the Supreme Lodge Tax. He wanted the Grand Lodge to pay in full on its entire membership, whether the money had been collected from the individual lodges or not. In addition he announced that he wanted 6 per cent interest paid for not sending the amount in time. West announced that he had signed a check for $5,000.00 payable to the Supreme Chancellor, but Crowell and Pollard had not signed it. THAT $8,000.00 Crowell had stated in his report that the Grand Lodge had $8,000.00 on deposit, but John T. Tayler wanted to know where the money was deposited. He had not recured the information up to the latest report. Finding these questions embarrassing and the members becoming uneasy, a political trick was resorted to. Charges were filed against F. E. Puryear, Grand Vice Chancellor and Eugene West. Grand Keeper of Records and Seal and these charges were referred to a committee of five. Charges were immediately filed against W. B. F. Crowell. Grand Chancellor: W. H. C. Brown. Grand Attorney: Joseph R. Pollard. Grand Master of Exchequer. This committee was referred to as a grand jury, but it acted in the capacity of a trial committee. ALL CHARGES ILLEGAL The charges against the last three were dismissed and those against Puryear and West were sustained, and upon recommendation of the committee they were declared suspended. As a matter of fact, according to the Supreme Lodge Law, page 50, charges cannot be entertained unless they are filed and laid over for 30 days. Instead, these two men were railroaded out of the Grand Lodge in violation of the law. This carried dismay to the ranks of the opposition and others ran to cover with the result that the machine had a "walk over". The outcome of all this is yet to be seen DEMANDED THE MONEY It is announced that Sir S. W. Green insisted upon receiving approximately $57,000 and Grand Attorney Brown promised $14,000 more although the Grand Lodge is not paving the death claims prompt and Cowell announces that it is due to not having received the money from the lodges. The meeting in Newport News was not large. No salaries were reduced and no offices abolished. On the other hand a tax of 2z cents more was added RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SUTURDAY JULY 2, 1927 to the endowment tax with the excuse that are being used as a basis, there would be an increase in the amount of some of the policies. GOT THE MONEY. The reaction in the State is yet to be seen. The Grand Representatives in many sections were outspoken in their opposition. Joseph R. Pollard admitted that he got the money as stated in the collection of the money from the Mechanics Savings Bank. The editorial in the Newport News Star, which criticized the conditions existing and virtually charged that the delegates were bloodwinked has set many people here to thinking. The disruption of the Order is seen and unless something is done quickly, the destruction of this fraternal order in this State is in sight. Danville was named as the next meeting place.

Tabor Baptist Church, Woodville, this city, took place last Sunday morning. The remains had been conveyed to the church Saturday afternoon, "to lie in state" until the funeral hour. About 10:30 the relatives and friends left the residence on Duval Street and proceeded to Mt. Tabor Baptist Church where preliminary exercises were held. The choir sang, "Servant of God, Well Done." Rev. S. M. Garnett was master of ceremonies and satisfactorily conducted the program as laid out. SERVICES AT MT. TABOR. Rev. F. L. Hill lined the hymn, Rev. Powell offered prayer. Deacon M. J. Jenkins spoke for, the Deacon Board. Miss Estelle Christian sang a solo, Rev. E. L. R. Guss offered prayer. Mrs Addle Burrell sang a solo. Rev.

JOHNSON DELIVERS SERMON Mrs W. T. Johnson sang "Nothing Between". Communications were read by Dr. J. W. Barco and Rev. John W. Kemp. It was announced that prior to his death Rev. Bass requested his daughter to read to him the 24th Psalm. Rev. Dr. W. T. Johnson selected his text from the 8th verse of this Psalm, and then he proceeded to deliver one of the most impressive sermons ever heard in this city. Rev. W. H Stokes, Ph. D. delivered a fervent praver. THE CONCLUSION. The choir sang "Asleep in Jesus" and "How Tasteless and T tedious the Hours". Then the mourners passed out to the cemetery. Funeral Director C. P. Hayes was in charge and handled the arrangements in a most satisfactory manner. The floral designs wee numerous and costly. Rev. Bass was just concluding the celebration of his 25th anniversary at the Mt. Tabor Baptist Church and was on his way to attend the Baptist Ministers Conference of Richmond and Vicinity when he was stricken. He had been severely injured when the floor at the Mt. Morlah Baptist Church collapsed at the laying of the corner stone of that structure last year. Rev. Bass was well known and revered in Richmond for his amable disposition and Christian demeanor for nearly three-quarter of a century. Not only had he pastored Mt. Tabor Church, but served Macedonia Baptist Church, Caroline County, Va. and Treasurer of the Baptist Ministers Conference of Richmond and Vicinity; a Director of the Y. M. C. A. and a member of the Knights of Pythias. He was prominent in the State Sunday School work for many years. Child Killed Truck Crushes Head of Girl. A Terrible tragedy. A distressing accident took place Wednesday afternoon, when Frank Hall's little daughter, in crossing the street on Brook Avenue, between Catherine and Leigh St. ran in front of Philip Levy truck and was almost instantly killed. Coroner J. M. Whitfield viewed the remains and the body was removed to A. D. Price's morgue. Herbert Conway, colored, of 722 N. Ist St., truck driver for Philip and Levy Co. was in the Police Court last Thursday morning charged with involuntary manslaughter in the killing of Charlotte Edith Hall. The witnesses appearing were Amandic Stokes, J. H. Hall, R. T. Baltham H. H. Witzgall, L. H. Griffin and S. P. Flournty. The left front wheel of the truck passed over the upper part of the child's head, forcing the brains through the nostrils and killing it instantly. The ophicnion seems to be that the accident was unavoidable. SPECIAL MESSAGE TO MEN AND WOMEN ONLY AT BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH Sunday night, July 3rd the Bethel Pro herhood will present Dr. J. S.

Man Dangerously Injured, May Die—W. T. Gray's Service Station Robbed. W. T. Gray's Filling Station had closed Saturday night when neigh hors saw some one moving about inside with a flashlight. The police were notified and within a few min utes, the place at 412 N. Second Street had been surrounded and the burglar was shot as he was running from the place. The wound was made in the lower part of his back. Blood flowed freely and he rested on the side walk until the arrival of the am balance. He was found to be Clarence Clemons, age 42, who resides at 209 E. Clay Street. He had secured only $1.00 for his trouble. The glass had been broken just enough for him to shove the latch aside. He raised the window and entered. The case was called in the Police Court Monday morning, but the wounded man could not appear. KOBBER CAUGHT HERE. Detective Sergeant John L. Wittshire tells an interesting story. George L. Fowler alias George Gray alias "Blue" on June 22, 1924 saw T. Boyd in a railroad station with counting $160,000, which he had earned and with which he was returning home. He approached him and induced him to go to a cook shop to get something to eat. When he got on Grace Street, a square west of 17th Street, he struck him with a car coupling hose, which he had concealed by wrapping in a newspaper. The blow on the back of the head fractured Boyd's skull. He lingered between life and death but finally recovered. TOOK MONEY AND WATCH. The robber took his money and his watch. Detective Sergeant Wiltshire traced the watch and found that Fowler had about $90 of the money. However he left the city before he could be arrested. The robber unwittingly returned to Richmond last Friday and soon there after. Detective Wiltshire arrested him. He is now seeking the whereabouts of J. T. Boyd, who is a material witness.

An accident occurred on the Petersburg Pike Sunday morning at about 8 o'clock. Mr. M. Alphonso Norrell, Attorney James T. Carter, Dr. Leon A. Reid, John B. Neblett, Jordan A. Jones were enroute to Norfolk, Va. Mr. Norrell was driving. He turned out to pass a car on the road and having made his distance turned in again, when the car completed three somersaults, the top leaving the body. The occupants found themselves in the top. The chassis had righted. Attorney Carter suffered a wrenched back, a cut in the right leg, scratches on the right arm and a slight gash on the right side of his forehead. CONFINED TO HIS ROOM. He was confined to his room under the skillful treatment of Dr. Miles B. Jones, who on Monday had so far relieved him as to enable him to turn without much pain. M. Alphonso Norrell was not so badly injured and is expected to be out in a few days. The car is owned by M. A. Norrell and is a total wreck. Other members of the party were injured. The Elks in the Tidewater section held a meeting Sunday at Bay-Shore Hotel and reiterated their intentions of going to New York. John B. Neblett states that the car turned over once, due to skidding. Norrell remained with the car, while the others found themselves lying inside the top, with their feet virtually in the air. Some rod or obstruction entered M. A. Norrell's back and the full extent of his injuries has not been ascertained REV H. B. HIGGS RECEIVES CALL (By Klozley Hall) Rev. Harry B. Higgs, A.

AUGUSTINE, Fl.—This is the story of the way in which three cities and the counties in which they are located, looked over their territory, collected its most beautiful scenic features before they began their new road building program.

THE OCEAN BOULEVARD BRIDGE ACROSS MANTANZAS INLET, 15 MILES SOUTH OF ST. AUGUSTINE THE OCEAN BOULEVARD BRIDGE ACROSS MANZANAS INLET, 15 MILES SOUTH OF ST AUGUSTINE St. Johns River, one of the largest waterways in the Southeastern states and one of the most beautiful in the country. What could be more picturesque than a boulevard leading from Jacksonville along the shaded banks of this mighty semi-tropical stream, and finally turning Eastward to St. Augustine and the ocean. And West of St. Augustine, and between that charming old city and the St. Johns River there lay hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land which were not reached by any roads. Why not open this land to agriculture by building roads which should radiate from St. Johns River to the St. River Boulevard, like spokes from the hub to the rim of the wheel? There was an opportunity also, to provide an entrance to St. Augustine from the West The above was the "problem" as the architects say, when they are required to design a building to conform to certain conditions. The road "architects," in their co-operative program, have proved that road building is just as much an art as architecture or landscape. Marvelous Ocean Boulevard In the first place the great Ocean Boulevard has already been constructed from St. Augustine South to Dauphine Beach 52 miles, and still further, to Columbus Inlet 16 miles, total 68 miles. It is a most wonderful road right along the ocean and always cool and pleasant. The writer by the way, has been over every road described in this article. It passes over Matazuan Inlet where the first Spanish colonist named Rimar and presents many charming vistas along the government bird reservation. It parallels Augustine Beach on which 42 cars can drive abreast, and also Ormond-bleau Beach where Major H. O. D. G. drove his car at a rate of 203 THE RICHMOND PLANET.

J. D. RAHNER THE WEST MILL CREEK ROAD ST JOHNS RIVER this unique trip on a recent Sunday. Another step in the program will be the construction of a boulevard South from Jacksonville for fifty miles or so along the majestic St. Johns River, with an Eastward turn to St. Augustine and the ocean. This will permit motorists to make a loop, including fifty miles of tropical river and fifty miles of ocean beach. But cross-country roads already built from St. Augustine to the St. Johns River will soon connect with existing roads into Jacksonville. Spanish Architecture of St. Augustine. St. Augustine is a beautiful city of OCEAN BOULEVARD, LINK IN ATLANTIC COASTAL HIGHWAY FROM MAINE TO KEY WEST loads of vegetables were shipped to the North, to return wealth to the regions which had suffered. The State of Florida has voted a bond issue of twenty million dollars to effect water control and carry forward the reclamation of the Everglades whose people look confidently to the future. The photograph shows a carload of mixed vegetables to leave Canal Point on the West Palm Beach Canal at Lake Okeechobee, the hammers of vegetables being loaded aboard the car. Standing beside the Red Cross Station on the North Island, Gordish Executive Secretary of the Palm Beach County Chapter, American Red Cross. The Florida East Coast Railway, under direction of vice-president H. N.

NG NEW GAT OCEAN BOULEVARD, LINK IN ATLANTA FROM MAINE TO KEY W about 20,000 population. It is located on Matanzas Bay, a placid expanse of water, which it has just crossed to Anastasia island by a fine steel and concrete bridge, costing the city one million dollars. Anastasia island, 1,550 feet distant, is picturesque wooded; its eastward side is washed by the Atlantic Ocean, and here is located the celebrated beach speedway, St Augustine Beach. The old Spanish architecture of the city is very notable. The climate is fine throughout the year, and I found it cooler in June than New York City To provide roads leading through the fertile region immediately West of St. Augustine, St. John County voted a bond issue of $2,200,000 for roads several years ago. The work was in charge of the county commissioners of which Mr J. D. Rahner General Passenger Agent of the Florida East Coast Railroad, is chairman. The commissioners employed a very engineer. C. Samuel Johnson, as "County Manager," charged with the duties of supervising the work of the contractors and of uniting the entire workforce. The work has gone ahead very rapidly and his supervision has saved the county large amounts of money. Altogether 180 miles of road are being built in St. John County. This includes many road mains radiating Northwest, West, and Southwest from St. Augustine to the St. John River. The most Northern of the spokes will probably cross Jullington Creek, a broad estuary of the St. John, when this article is published.

Their beverage bill last year exceeded one-half billion dollars. "Finely per cent of all persons above 15 years of age drink tea or coffee or both," said Mr. Blanke. "Per capita consumption of coffee last year amounted to fourteen pounds a year. That of tea three-quarters of a pound each twelve months.

The next of the spokes is called the Mill Creek Road and leads to Orange-dale on the St. Johns River which it will cross by a half million dollar bridge to Green Cove Springs. The expected completion date is connection with State Road No. 3 from Jacksonville through Orange Park to Green Cove Springs, will provide one of the most beautiful scenic drives in America. From Green Cove Springs the route goes Northwest to Lake City offering motorists from the West a short cut to the East Coast of Florida. Bear and Wild Trucks Still Found Deer and Wild Turkeys Still Found Houses are few and far between in the almost virgin territory which is being uped between St. Augustine and the St. Johns River Deer and wild turkeys are occasionally seen. Even bear have been observed within the past year. But the son is very rich and it is expected that the new roads will mean much to St. Augustine in increased tributary population. One of the richest sections of St. Johns County is the Irish potato district at Hastings, about 25 miles South of the country now being opened up. The early season Irish potato industry has yielded a much larger share of family and locally, Irish potatoes are only one of many possibilities of this region. E. P. Wolfe who lives on the Hastings Road. 7 miles from St Augustine, is enthusiastic about the country. He has a nerd of 55 Jerseys, and also Irish potatoes, growing corn and hay after the potato crop is pithored. Mr. Wolfe went there ten years ago from Nashville, Penn. He selected land that he thought naw good drainage, cleared it, or it was all we knew, and started in to form a corn farm that have vegetables any tomatoes, peas, okra, squash," said Mrs. Wolfe. We came down to get away from the cold winters. One who is willing to work will succeed." New Dixie Highway to Miami. These agricultural possibilities as well as the scenic attractions and the desire to make new gateways to the East Coast have inspired the ancient city of St. Augustine and her neighbors to build new roads. In addition to the amount spent by St. John County the State of Florida is spending approximately one million dollars on road work in the St. John County. One of the new roads is the new Dike Highway (State Road No. 4), which before the summer is over will be reopened from Jacksonville, St. Augustine and Bunnell.

No honest citizen who observed the practices at Newport News, Va. lst week, where the suecesstul op- position was denied the privilese of even putting their candidates in nominatior for offices can fail to approve of the plainspoken utter ences of that popular journal, ‘The Newport News Star. It had careful: iy avoided taking sides in the mat. ter, but had rather leaned to the side of the officers in charre. It saw enough to cause it to ‘cry aloud and spare not”. The Pythian leaders, who brought about this condition of affairs were short sighted and their success wil! he stort lived. No action or charge can stand against the individual members of the Tidewater Past Chancellors’ Council or against i's eflicers. Charges that are not nade thirty days prior to the meetiig of the Grand Lodge cannot be maiu- tained ani tried at that session ct the Grand Lodge, but must noces- sarily come up in the next session of the Grand Lodge in 1928. The law is too plain to be mix vnderstood. The whole affu'r ts a political trick and should be treated ax such. ‘The members who pay their money will decide the ques- tion. Already there are reports that the Grand Lodgo is not paying en- Gowment claims and the Supreme Todge had withheld the pass word on account of the nonpayment of faxes due. The gentlemen in charge have resorted to a “rule or ruin” policy and are driving the organization to destruction. It may be thac a reverberating note will Le Leard In the near future and staps will be made to check this mad career which is leading to eure de- struction. ‘ neh FULTON NOTES. The raliy at Mt.

Mrs. Burton Adisse Women on Motherhood and Companionship. "For several years I was denied the blessing of motherhood," written Mrs. Mangaret Burton of Kansas City, "it was a tortilary nervous object to periods of terrible suffering and melancholia. Now I am the proud mother of a beautiful little daughter and a true companion and inspiration to my husband. I believe hundreds of other women would like to know the best of my happiness, and I will gladly reveal it to any married woman who will write me." Mrs. Burton offers her advice entirely without change. She has nothing to sell. Letters should be addressed to Mrs. Mangaret Burton, 397 Massachusetts, Kansas City, Mo.

After waitinp 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 so and get some of L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicine and try before being 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. J. A. PAGE, TE, WITHIN 1000 MILES ORDERED. SENIED MORTICIANS CONDUCT years of Experience Enables us to efficient Manner.

PAYNE FTV FURNITURE --- LaSalle Extension University Takes Over Stenotype OPERATING THE STENOTYPE This Week By Arthur Brisbane LINDBERGH. BULL WHALE AND ATHEIST. HE WHO FIGHTS ALONE. THANKS BE FOR LINDY. Deeds of individual courage still arouse the world more than any other achievement. Lindbergh's welcome proves that men feel, today, as they did about Grillon, Duguesolin or Perseua. The individual fighter, doing it himself, is the man adored by the crowd. Any man is courageous with many around him. With a crowd, it is easier to go than not to go. But, by yourself, it is different. The great crowds that howl for Lindbergh, and that were asleep when he started off in the fog, alone, at daybreak, know why they adored him. A lookout on the cruiser Memphis, bringing Lindbergh home, called out, "There she blows, broad on the starboard bow." Lindbergh, on the bridge, saw a big bull whale, accompanied by his "cows," keeping close to their lord and master as he rolled and spouted. Nothing could have made that bull whale believe that the tiny man on the bridge had flown across the Atlantic Ocean, in the other direction. How can you hope to make an atheist believe that there exists a Divine intelligence flashing from one universe to another, pervading all space? The bull whale and the atheist KNOW. You can't fool them. Thank heaven for Lindbergh. LaSalle Extensio CHICAGO—Sale and manufacture of the Stenotype, the machine that writes shorthand, was taken over by the LaSalle Extension University of Chicago through the purchase of the plant and equipment and all rights of the Stenotype company of Indianapolis here. Production will reach a value of $30,000,000 within a few years, according to the new owners. Plans have been made to produce, 1,000 machines a week. Elmer W. Stout of Indianapolis, president of the Fletcher American National Bank, acted for the receivables of the Stenotype Company, while President J. G. Chapelle of the LaSalle Institute handled the matter in connection. 亦 He may auch this Government realize that to be defenseless in the air IS TO BE ABSOLUTELY DEFENSIBLE. He told the Chamber of Commerce in New York: "We don't want war, and the way to avoid it is to be prepared for it. We need greatly enlarged commercial air service, greatly increased air mail service, to develop good pilots. It takes longer to make a pilot than to make a flying machine." He reminded New York of the disgraceful fact that the richest city in the world has no air port, and must travel far off to Long Island to find one. And he said in substance this: "They talk about anti-aircraft guns as a defense against airplanes. A hundred fast planes would soon clear a battleship's docks of its anti-aircraft guns. Then a dozen bombers would sink it. The anti-aircraft guns might, but probably wouldn't, bring down a few pilots, destroy a trilining sum in airplanes. But airplanes would wipe out a $20,000,000 battleship and its great erew of men." Many people, including the Government, must listen to Lindbergh. That's the advantage of climbing to a high place among men. You can MAKE others listen. Much of woman's trouble has been caused by her prejudice against her own sex, her lack of mercy for other women that go wrong, her contempt for women generally. Miss Bessie Mack of Chicago, accused of flirting by two large policewomen, "beat them up" when they sought to arrest her. She surrendered peaceably to a very small policeman, saying, "No woman can arrest me." Sir Oliver Lodge, who believes in ghosts and spirits, says that we say society prepares life can be created in the laboratory. This says Lodge, does not belittle God's power, for man is God's creation and might well imitate his Maker on a small scale. He MIGHT, but he WON'T. That is, he will not create the only life that counts—the life that THINKS. Real life is TOUGHT, not MATTER. n University Takes O OPERATING THE which began in 1912, was discontinued following the overthrow of the old Russian government and the consequent repudiation of contracts $100,000,000 worth of institutions which were in process of production by the Stenotype Company at that time. "This mechanical stenographic reporting device will revolutionize the art of rapid dictation," said President Chapline. "Since 1920 virtually all conventions and public meetings importance have been reported by Stenotype operator working on the old manual type will be distributed by LaTeX extension University exclusively. A heavy appropriation will be made for advertising the product." THE RICHMOND PLANET. RICHMOND' VIRGINIA Magazine Page by John Joseph Gaines, M. D Hot Weather Hints Assuming that there will be some hot weather this summer, it behooves the "fats" as well as the "leans" to get all the comfort out of it that is possible. Perspiration, a most valuable process, should not be arrested, but its discomforts should be dealt with intelligently, if it becomes disagreeable; Light, airy clothing is indispensable; it permits free access of air to the person, which is effectual in carrying away excess moisture. Some people have sweat-glands that are excessively active, especially the fat bodies with nervous temperaments—these may attempt to limit skin-drainage, by maintaining more free action bowel and digestive, and always allowing out down water-drinking in hot weather, unless it be the intake of ice-water, which for many reasons is not good for the human system. Neither should plenty of exercise be neglected; exercise and plenty of good, cool water, are among the best conservers of health. If your perspiration has a very offensive odor, your elimination by bowels and kidneys is insufficient; lessen your dietary of animal and saccharine foods. Locally, bathing, especially the cool shower is tonic; the coarse dry towel is a faithful ally. Many powders are used for dusting remote surfaces; know the quality of the stuff you buy. If the skin presents a "greaty" surface, the steareat of zinc is excellent—may be used freely with dangerous danger of falling off. When powdering, only precaution to be observed, never dust baby so that he inhales the powder—and this applies to any dusting-powder on the market. The steareat of zinc is a good powder after shaving, especially if the cuticle is oily in appearance. Borated powders are very useful on irritable skins, and, entirely harmless. No dusting compound should contain lead. (Next week: Right Living.) Over Stenotype STENOTYPE and the new course at the University. "The advantage of the Stenotype consists principally in the fact that it writes on a paper tape, much in the same way that a typewriter transcribes on paper. Very important consists of a plain letter, which may be printed by a trained operator easily as a paper or book. There are sixteen keys on the board of the machine and ten fingers can be used at once if necessary. "Ordinarily a speed two and three times faster than the average speed of stenographers can be used on the Stenotype. The Salle University has three machines that machine through some four hundred approach business schools."

"AFTER THE LOAVES AND FISHES." [Editorial, Newport News] From now until the latter part of September the annual meetings of our great secret societies will be held in various parts of the country for the election of officers and the transaction of other fraternal bustiness necessary to keep these organizations functioning. As we meditate upon the significance of these societies we are skilled by their growth and influence. There is, of course, a deep reason for the love that our people have for secret orders. The increase in numbers of these societies has been one of the striking phenomena of race activities during the last thirty-five or forty years. The elimination of our people from participation in the political affairs of the Southern part of our country seems to have given new impetus to the race in fraternal orders. This, perhaps, is as it should be, for by this simple method our people are given an opportunity to learn something of the art of government. We did not start out, however, to comment on the increase in numbers in fraternal societies, but rather to call attention to the fact that while these great organizations are made up of honest, hardworking true and tried men and women, that there are, nevertheless, in nearly all of them, men of superior intellectual equipment, who are using these fine people for the simple purpose of exploitation—for the leaves and fishes. It is about to become a scandal in a large number of these organizations, this mad fight and scramble for high offices by certain client talkers and race traitors who don't give a rap for the solemn obligations taken by them when they were initiated into the brotherhood, but only wish to manipulate its a fairs as to get high offices for themselves and their friends. It is shameful to note how a few men, familiar with fraternal politics, if we may be permitted to use that term, so deceive the unsuspecting delegates by juggling figures, misstating facts and by knowledge and use of the psychology of the crowd to be blind them to the real conditions too frequently brought about by the management of these high officers. By this we do mean to say that there are altogether lacking in our secret orders men of high character holding high offices. But we do mean to say that in a large numbe those who talk the loudest, think the least of the good of the brotherhood. They seek only the dollars and cents they can take from it. The remedy is in the hands of the people themselves. Every member of a secret society should know for himself the condition of affairs of his local lodge and its relation to the Grand Lodge. He should study the character of the men offering for office, and he should be exceedingly alert when the financial interest of such men would be allowed to control the financial side of the order as are of known good character and good repute in the community where they live. FIFTH STREET BAPTIST CHURCH Rev. Charles S. Morris Pastor The Great Revival at Fifth Street Baptist Church which had been on for five weeks came to a glorious close or Wednesday night with a very impressive message from Dr. Becton to the church. Dr. Becton has been a great blessing to Richmond. While there was no formal union of the churches on the city from the pastors, there was a real union meeting from the members of all the churches who crowded in from night to night and vied with members of Fifth Street in attendance and interest; and while 69 of the accessions went to other churches. 168 registered to unite with this church. 53 of those who joined here by experience, letter and watch care were fellowshiped at the communion service Sunday afternoon. 89 were baptized at the evening service. This loving fellowship of the members of all the churches was one of the happiest features of this great meeting. People were made to feel at home in God's house no matter what church they attended; and no effort was made on the part of Dr. Morris our pastor to take members from other churches, but the moment they expressed their preference to join any other church in the city they were immediately assigned to that church. A large number of ministers from the various churches attended the meetings from time to time. Dr. Becton proved himself a master of assemblies with a vivid and wonderful experience with the Lord as Savour, Sanctifier and Healer. He fearlessly proclaimed the old time Baptist Gospel, ever clinging to "the faith" that was once and for all delivered to the saints. Many a burdened heart was lifted by Sister Becton's sweet singing, while the Moore St. Bapt. Church, West Leigh St., between Kinney and Bowe Sts Dr. Gordon B. Hancock, PASTOR.
