Norfolk, Va., Oct. 25.—Judge B. D. White, of the Circuit Court of Isle of Wight County, today named a commission to meet in Richmond November 3rd, to examine and report on the mental condition of Shirley Winnegan, Negro, charged with the recent murder of Hilda Barlow, a young white girl.
Judge White also announced that owing to the difficulty of getting any of the attorneys of Isle of Wight County to defend the prisoner he had appointed James G. Martin, of Norfolk to conduct the defense. Mr. Martin accepted the appointment.
Decision to obtain a report on the mental condition of Winnegan, who had been adjudged insane prior to the crime, will mean a delay in the date of the trial which had been set for November 1st.
At the time of the crime, which Winnegan denies having committed he was on parole from the Central State Hospital at Petersburg, from which he was sent because of the fact that there was no room there for him.
Judge White said that if Winnegan is found sane a new and later trial date will be set. If he is found insane he will be committed to an asylum. Members of the commission appointed to make the examination are the superintendents of the State hospitals for the insane at Staunton, Williamsburg and Petersburg.

(Special by John Mitchel, J. Jr.)
I called at the city jail to see Shirley Winnegan, the colored man of Isle of Wight County, who lives near Smithfield, Va., and who was threatened with lynching. He had been brought here for safe-keeping. He was a light brown-skin man of medium build and was in the part of the jail allotted to prisoners either charged or convicted of felonies. As he came up to the iron grating, his fellow prisoners gathered to hear all that was said. Winnegan was suspected of having murdered and assaulted the 14-year-old daughter of David Godwin white, although there is no direct evidence against him. As I talked to him and asked him questions, he spoke without hesitation.
Tells His Story.
He said, "My name is Sherry Winnegan. My mother's name is Rebecca Winnegan. I have been working at a public service station at Smithfield. I was arrested on suspicion. My wife's name is Katie. I have a boy, three years of age, and a girl seven months old. I was not within three miles of the place when this took place. It happened at 4 o'clock last Friday. I've never been in jail before and never had any trouble at all. I worked for R. K. Williams (white), lived in Richmond Me and he worked in some suburb. He was down on me about an automobile, which he ran into a grocery store, which has a gasoline station
Claims An Alibi.
"They made him pay for it. He was the one who told the people that he thought he saw me out there. I did not know the father of the girl and have never been on his place. I was about 100 yards from him when I was arrested. Me and my wife were about three miles from where the girl was killed at the time it must have happened. Ten colored people were around all day and know that I was at home when the murder took place. They carried me out there where the girl was killed. She stayed at the Sufkol jail until 6 o'clock. Saturday night they brought me to Petersburg jail. They brought me to Richmond about 4 o'clock Sunday morning.
Examined By Doctors
Doctors examined me at Smithfield. They told my people I was crazy. My people signed the paper. I have never been up for being crazy before. My
father owns land. I do not know how many acres. There is a house on it with four rooms. He has 25 head of hogs, mules and horses, two cows and a calf. I never saw that girl before. I have spells every two or three weeks and get out of my head. Sometimes, I know what is going on and sometimes I don't. A rock fell about ten feet and struck me on the head some time ago." This ended the interview. Giving him advice concerning himself, I passed from the grim walls of the prison to the street, where I felt the exhilarating effect of the glorious sun on the outside.
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF HAMPTON ALUMNI MEETS Statement Backs School Board.
Hampton Institute, Va., Oct. 24.—A statement following a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Hampton Alumni Association, authorized by Charles H. Williams, chairman of the Alumni Visitation Committee, Charles T. Russell, and Mrs. Janie Porter Barrett, all members of the committee, was issued today as follows:
"The Executive Committee of the Hampton Alumni Association met in a special session at Hampton Institute October 21, 1927. This meeting called by the Chairman, Dr. W. E. Reid, was attended by alumni from various parts of the country. Letters and telegrams were read from distant alumni who on account of short notice were unable to be present.
"After a five-hour session in which the committee heard all aspects of the recent difficulty at Hampton Institute, it was unanimously voted to support the Administrative Board in the efforts to maintain discipline at Hampton during the recent strike.
"The Visitation Committee operating with the Executive Committee will co-operate with the school in adjusting matters which it is hoped will make for better understanding on the part of the administration and the student body."

RICHMONDS OWN THEATER
MOSQUE
LAUREL & MAIN STS.
RUN BY THE PEOPLE FOR THE PEOPLE
Phone Mad.2793
Jazzed melody, whirlwind dances and thrilling entertainment on the screen are presented in the gala program which will open the gigantic new Mosque Theater, Laurel and Main Streets, Saturday. A large special section of the balcony has been reserved for colored patrons, it was announced by the management, and every courtesy will be extended them. The standard admission price, both matinee and night, will be twenty-five cents, with no advance on Saturdays or holidays.
The Mosque is "Richmond's Own Theater" and the largest in the South. Under the direction of Harry Bernstein, general manager, the playhouse has been lavishly equipped and ranks in capacity and appointments with the finest in the United States. The best entertainment offered by the American theater in headline stage presentations and feature motion pictures will be presented in this handsome setting. An elaborate opening bill will be given Saturday, every number of which has been booked direct from New York over the famous Stanley circuit, with which the Mosque has closed an exclusive contract. Richmond will be provided the same amusement features offered in the leading theaters of New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and other of the leading theatrical centers. The opening bill will be continued through next Wednesday, when there will be a complete change of pictures and all musical numbers in the four feature acts. On the initial program will be Reginald Denny, in his latest Universal release, "All Night Out." a rapid-fire romance, with abundant comedy and excitement, and the nimly entertaining story of college life, the Collegians." These features will be accompanied by the Mosque concert orchestra of twenty-seven instruments and the Mosque-Wurlitzer $62,000 organ, with Signor Charles J. Rossa at the console.
Ninon Natalie and Paul Darnelle, sensational dancers, will top the stage attractions. These famous entertainers were recently starred in the musical comedy hit, "Lady Do," and other successes. They will be accompanied by their Jazz Harp Ensemble, a distinct novelty in musical settings. Whitey Kaufmann's Collegians will offer a session of highly syncopated music, enlivened by a touch of comedy. This troupe of talented instrumentalists is rated among the best on tour and it has prepared a bill of the latest New York numbers for the Richmond opening.
Vivian Holt and Myrtle Leonard, vocal harmonists extraordinary, will tender an act of uncommon beauty, and Scalla, an European importation, is rated among the most skillful modern exponents of the mandolin. He will disclose an unusual turn. For November 3rd, 4th and 5th the Mosque will present Rod LaRoe in the thrilling production, "The Fighting Eagle," a melodrama of love and laughter and innumerable thrills. On the same bill will be the Mosque Magazine, pictorializing the news of the day from every part of the world, and the Mosque Tours, a novelty both entertaining and instructive. Many high-grade acts and pictures have been billed for the season and it will be the endeavor of the Mosque to place Richmond on the highest plane of rood amusement.

CHARLES E. HUGHES IN RICHMOND.
(Special by John Mitchell, Jr.)
A dramatic scene was enacted Wednesday morning in the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. Seated behind the massive desk were Circuit Judges Edmund Waddill, Jr., of Richmond; John J. Parker, of Charlotte, N. C.; and Elliott Northcott, of Huntington, W. Va. They wore the judicial robes of the country's most distinguished jurists. The court room was comfortably filled. But the center of attraction was Hon. Charles Evans Hughes, ex-Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, ex-State of State, ex-candidate for the office of President of the United States and a much-talked of candidate for the Presidency, the only statesman who has even a chance of defeating the popular Governor Al Smith of the Empire State.
Where He Sat.
He sat at the bar near the main entrance to the court room, calm, unassuming, dignified as he appeared for one of the appellants in a noted case. A virtual chemical laboratory rested on the table in front of the jurists. Mr. Hughes associate was arguing the case, the necessity of making these tests in the presence of the court. Mr. Hughes, soon after the other side objected, stepped briskly and informed that this chemical demonstration would save hours of explanation. The three judges drew their chairs closer together, discussed the matter and permitted the test to proceed.
A Central Figure.
I had known the central figure (Judge Waddill) in this judicial drama for forty years. He began his career as a country lawyer, then he went to Congress, then he became a district judge, winning for himself high honors for the masterly decisions rendered by him during the World War, which decisions were later upheld by the highest judicial tribunal in the land. Now, here he was with one of the most noted barristers in the world addressing him while he occupied the position as the senior judge of the United States Court of Appeals. It is a dazzling change.
That Great New Yorker.
Sedate, solemn, with a growth of beard, closely resembling the Hon. Charles Evans Hughes, he sat there, a source of pleasure and wonder to his friends, and the object of admiration and commendation to those who had observed this meteoric career during later days.
With bowed in reverence and esteem, by the call of duty elsewhere, I passed out of the court room to the street below.

Supreme Chancellor Green Makes Reply
(Continued from last week.)
I also note your criticism, Mr. Editor, of the Southern delegates from Louisiana, Mississippi and Oklahoma fighting Texas and the South. The delegates from Louisiana, Mississippi and Oklahoma, Mr. Editor, have the courage of their convictions and would not "bend the pregnant hinges of the knee that thrift might follow fawning," but will tell the truth about conditions in the South, and will not try to humiliate their more fortunately situated brethren and sisters by forcing to vote them to come to the far South on "jim-crow" railroad trains, and to be humiliated and insulted on "jim-crow" street cars to order to pass to and from their meeting places if their sessions were held in some city in the far South.

Editor Richardson's Caustic Remarks
(Continued from last week.)
It is not our purpose to enter into any newspaper controversy with the supreme chancellor, nor to extend the discussion regarding the failure of the supreme lodge to accept the invitation to hold its 1929 biennial session at Dallas, Texas; but since he has charged that this editor was parsimonious with verity in reporting his (Green's) violent and railing denunciation of the South, we are perfectly willing to let those who heard Mr. Green's utterber of Southern whites—held a national gathering in Atlanta, Georgia, during recent years, and no "racial trouble" has been reported yet. The national Baptist conventions have held sessions in the South, both factions having convened in Texas during the last three years, with male and female delegates from all sections of the country—and we have yet to hear of the first clash between the two traces because of these mammoth meetings in Texas and the South.
The Informer contends that, if these bodies and organizations can bring their memberships to the South and Texas for an occasional national (Continued on page 4.)

We wish to thank the many friends for their kindness shown and the beautiful floral designs given at the death of our aunt. Miss Cora Jones. May God bless one of you.

Rev. George L. Rollins, D. D., pastor of Mt. Sinai Baptist Church of Chesterfield County, has returned from his vacation. He stopped at Buffalo, Elmira, New York, having made a tour of Canada. He will have charge of his church regularly hereafter.
Judge H. A. Maurice has been having his own way in the Police Court during the absence of Judge Ingram. He awakened memories of old times and discharged the duties of this office with a familiarity and promptness, reinforced by general satisfaction to those who regard him highly in this "neck of the woods." He was evidently at home during the trying hours of a Monday morning's grind.

The brain the mood himself erect is most apt to inspire confidence in himself and others than one who shuffles along. The child, too, who is not taught correct posture faces an obstacle to his growth and development. The school schools are giving extensive study to this somewhat difficult problem. Differences in the human frame render inadvisable or empirical a statement that the line of weight-bearing should be identical in all individuals.

How to Walk.
"In that one word walk," said Dr. Schoole recently, "you have the most potent prescription ever written to make weak bodies strong and correct a host of ailments which affect the human race. One can literally walk himself into health and a beautiful symmetry of figure. If you are overweight or underweight, you can keep your weight where it belongs by walking. You can do it by occasional indulgence. If you want the prize you must strive for it.
"You should walk not less than five miles each day. Every mile you go beyond that is just that much more beneficial. But like any other form of exercise one should gradually work up to a maximum to avoid undue fatigue.
"A good way to begin the walk with correct posture is to stand with the back against a wall so that the heels back and head touch the wall.
"When correct posture is attained hold your head up chest out and diaphram in foes should be pointed

general axis of the body should be vicle to the plane of the ground. In this position the body is held upright with least expenditure of muscular and nervous energy; the vital organs are in position to function efficiently; the lungs are in position for correct breathing, and the abdominal muscles are made tense and the organs are less liable to change the normal relations of their positions. Digestive and abdominal disturbances, headaches, nervous instability, pulmonary troubles, and those of circulation, and most marked of foot and ankle problems, all partion to the effort of walking, are among the unwelcome results that may follow an habitually wrong posture. To quote from the report of an industrial commission on how wrong posture resets on the health of employees:
"The habits of posture that produce round shoulders and forward dropped head lessen the space in the chest for the lungs, and may inflict great injury to the organs within the abdominal cavity. The wide separation of the on the high shoulder and interferences with the entrance of the air particularly on that side in the case of a large number of persons bearing ulcerosis this posture is the hallmark one and the disease first invades the apex of the tung on the side of the high shoulder. The facies of conditions are active in preaching the depressive movement of the organs. The need for ward posture especially in individuals on a tall and slender build is so severe to it. The normal toils and stress in the digestive tube are seen on the the folding inward of the skin of the andomen on the bent line of the downward crowding that arise.
I have quoted this to illustrate a list which not many people recognize that an actual compression or displacement of vital organs may occur. I have long been urging methodical walking in the open as a health-building exercise at the disposal of almost everyone. But it is impossible to maintain a correct posture or walk to the greatest advantage if one has weak or defective feet. The first step to encourage right posture is to correct remediable defects of the feet. This is done in walking naturally. There is a tendency to avoid pressing on the weak or afflicted region and to throw the body's weight elsewhere upon the foot. This may strain and distort
straight ahead, since when they are 'tood out' the weight is thrown to ward the inside border of the foot. "Train yourself to breathe properly. Very few people do. They nearly always breathe from the chest. Cultivate breathing from the abdomen. The rise and fall of the abdomen with each breath takes give the vital organs in this region stimulation and aids elimination. Proper breathing is the greatest blood purge known to man. "Bad posture may cause fatigue headaches, nervous instability, digestive disturbances, and most market of all, foot troubles, which should receive treatment in competent hands. One lesson is that many people do not think much, only they should for their health is that their feet will not permit them to do so without causal discomfort.
"Walk briskly, so that the circulation is whipped up and the functional organism made to produce better and more virile quality of blood. Brisk walking induces healthy perspiration which aids in the elimination of impurities from the pores."
health
other parts of the foot. No parts of the human frame are subjected to such powerful mechanical forces as are the small bones of the human foot. When the weight is improperly borne, the force is sufficient to distract any foot or shoe. A walk down any crowded city street will show scores of shoes pushed out of shape by the distorted feet of their owners. Do not toe-out when walking or standing. The toed-out position sends them the weight toward the inside edge of the foot, resulting in toes-out in children is a frequent cause of broken or fallen arches. Toes should be pointed straight ahead.
If foot trouble is due to some systemic condition or disease a physician should be called in. But happily most static defects of the feet can be corrected without serious inconvenience. Next, the shoes should be built on correct orthopedic principles and correctly fitted. The stockings should not bind or cramp the feet. The arches of the foot are sustained in place by ligaments and muscles. When these give way the arches fall or flatten and the bones second toward the ground. The bone displacement causes pressure on the nerve center, obstructs the circulation of blood to the foot, and throws the foot out of the air. Surgical plates or arch supports intelligently adjusted to the individual foot may be used temporarily to give the proper correction and stimulate control.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.—Ellott B.
Smoke's cremery was supplied by
big tank cars which came down
loaded with milk, from West Virginia
and Wisconsin. That was a long dis-
tance to bring milk, but Florida's
dairy cattle had not kept up with its
pros.
"Best place in the world for dairy
cattle," said Mr. Smoke. "Lots of
gunshine here; lots of feed from
crasses and legumes introduced from
all parts of the globe. Think I'll
have to promote some dairies with
cows instead of tank cars."
He get busy. Within the past two
years he has been instrumental in get-
ting farmers to establish 28 dairies in
Columbia and Flagler Counties, whose
entire output is handled by his Halt-
tle company in this city. The dairies
are small but successful and cows and
bulls of high type are used to stock
them.
"This east coast of Florida offers the greatest advantages for pasturing dairy cattle of the highest grade," said Cornell University, chairman of the agricultural committee of the Daytona Beach Realty Board. "With milk in this section at present bringing the dairyman 40 cents per gallon wholesale there's no use depending on tank cars. The old Spaniards had a tremendous cattle industry in Florida in the early days," says Frank Huffaker of the Chamber of Commerce. "They buy the astonishing sum of $77,000 worth of food supplies and grows but $43,000 worth each year," said Nathan Mayo, Florida's commissioner of agriculture. "Besides this, the state imports annually $50,000 of hay, chicken feed, dairy feed, meal, flour, canned goods, and other staples.

Barnum first introduced the White Belt cattle as circus freaks, but Dr. Dupuis has introduced from Holland some of the finest strains of the breed in the world.

For many years a study of the luxuriant pasture and field crops has been made by the agricultural department of the Florida East Coast Railway at St. Augustine.

Richmond, Va., July 8, 1916.
A perfect cure has been effected by L. J. Hayden's Pure Herb Medicines. After waitup 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 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.
I am, J. A. PAGE.

ISLE OF WIGHT SITUATION
SERIOUS
The Richmond Times Dispatch says;
Isle of Wight County is now in the midst of a double upheaval. Several days ago a 14-year-old white girl was attacked and murdered near her home about one mile from Smithfield. A Negro reported that his son had seen another Negro, Shirley Winnegan, near the scene of the crime about the time the crime was believed to have been committed. Winnegan was arrested and placed secretly in the Petersburg jail. On the night of the crime a mob visited the home of the sheriff, founding information as to the prisoner was located. Sheriff W. H. Chapman withheld this information until advised by Commonwealth's Attorney George Whitty to inform the mob.
That this mob intended to lynch Winnegan is the only conclusion that can be drawn from its action. Before the mob reached Petersburg, which it is reported, it did not enter. Commonwealth's Attorney Whitley had warned the Petersburg authorities and the prisoner had been removed to Richmond. A grand jury was quickly convened at Isle of Wight Court House. Winnegan was indicted. Commonwealth's Attorney Whitley did not ask for a change of venue and the trial was set for November 1st, at Isle of Wight Court House. The father of the murdered child told the court that he was willing for the law to take its course.
This was a most commendable position for the grieved father to take. White and colored people sympathize with him in his bereavement and the latter hope to God that this heinous crime will not be hid definitely at any colored man's door. Should it be a fact however that the criminal is colored, the united voice of our people shall be in favor of the infliction of the death penalty. It says:
That this most hideous of all crimes has excited great indignation throughout the county is easily understood. Yet it is fortunate for Isle of Wight County and for Virginia that Sheriff Chapman acted promptly in removing Winnegan from the county. When the criminal was set for Isle of Wight Court House, despite the statement by the father of the murdered child there was cause for questioning the wisdom of the authorities in not asking or granting a change of venue. Recent developments have made such a move even more desirable.
And again:
Winnegan, it develops, was, at the time the murder of which he is accused was committed, on parole from an insane asylum. Acting on the belief that Sheriff Chapman should not have permitted such a man to go free about the county, a political meeting has been held by 1,500 Isle of Wight men. At this meeting independent candidates were nominated for sheriff and Commonwealth's attorney for the election of November 8th.
If Winnegan is guilty of the crime for which he is indicted he must be punished to the limit under the laws of Virginia. But the county has now been covered with political posters calling for a political revolt. With this new factor entering to complicate matters further it would be the part of wisdom to shift the trial of Winnegan to some other point in Virginia.
We feel like we are living in a new Virginia. Justice should be met "though the heavens fall." Let the law be supreme and take its course.
SUPREME CHANCELLOR GREEN

abilities of race troubles during the vacations of the supreme lodge, found themselves very much relieved when they can meet at least once in two years in cities and under circumstances where they can feel free from the harassments and probabilities of racial troubles.
While the delegates from Louisiana, Mississippi and Oklahoma voluntarily accept the conditions in the South, and are willing to remain in the South, and do remain in the South, they are not sufficiently narrow-minded to try to force others to accept those conditions when they can meet in other cities without having to undergo the humiliations and insults of "jim-crow" street cars.
Scorched Texas.
I also note the following in your editorial:
"Not only that, but he literally scorched Texas, despite the fact that he is the distinguished guest of honor at the grand lodge of the Colored Knights of Pythias in this State every year; and has

been loud and profuse in his comments and complimentes touching upon the fine manner in which delegates and visitors to the annual sessions of the order in Texas are greeted and treated by dozens of the cities in which these conventions are held." It is true, Mr. Editor, that I have been a guest at the grand lodge of the Colored Knights of Pythias in the State of Texas ever since beginning with the year 1905, except one year when I could not come to the grand lodge of Texas because I was present there. I have enjoyed the visits to the grand lodge of Texas and have praised the manner in which the delegates and visitors have been welcomed to the cities of Texas by the mayors of the cities of Texas— sometimes in person, and sometimes by their representatives. I do not hesitate to praise them for their cordial words of welcome and for the courtesies extended our representatives to the grand lodge meetings.
That Almighty But
Evt. Mr. Editor, that does not alter the fact that I have always gone to the "me in the lodge" and lodge of the Grand Chancellor and returned to the meetings of the grand lodge of Texas for the past 22 years in "jim-crow cars" except during the past two years. I grand chancellor has been securing special trains to run from certain cities to the meeting places of the grand lodge, and it was only that I could enjoy the comforts of railroad travel in Texas without being cooped up in one end of a "jim-crow car" and being embarrassed by having males and females having to use the same toilets, and many times have had to stand because I could not secure a seat in the "jim-crow car" provided for colored passengers. For the past 22 years, sir. Editor, I have visited the sessions of the grand lodge of Texas, and have greatly impaired my health because of having "to sit up all night long in Texas, because I could not secure the comforts and conveniences in a sleeping car.**
Had Visited Texas
I have accorded the grand lodge sessions of Texas when they were in poor circumstances financially, and have attended the grand lodge sessions of Texas when they had also grown into affluent circumstances.
Whether the grand lodge of Texas was scarcely able to meet its obligations, or whether the grand lodge of Texas was in a flourishing financial condition, I have endeavored to discharge my duty in my official capacity to advise and counsel with the officers and representatives in the matter of promoting the best interest of the order in that grand jurisdiction. If the grand lodge of Texas is now in a flourishing financial condition, I wish to remind you, Mr. Emuor, that I take pride in the fact that I have advised and counseled with the officers and representatives of the grand lodge of Texas in the matter of every in which has been adopted, and every effort put forth to make the lodge of Texas one of the most prosperous grand lodges of our supreme jurisdiction.
White Texans' Liberality.
At the session of the grand lodge of Texas in Austin in June this year I praised the representatives of the house of representatives of Texas for granting to us the use of the house of representatives by an almost unanimous vote to hold our memorial services in their hall, despite the fact that they were holding their daily sessions of the house of representatives at the same time in their hall. While I praised the representatives of representatives of representatives of the State of Texas for the courthouses extended to us, and approve of the act in extending that courtesy, I do not, and cannot approve of another act of the same legislature that passed a law denying to its colored fellow-citizens the right to vote in Democratic primaries, because of their race and color.
In the matter of how I may feel in the event I should attend the grand lodge of the Texas Pythians at Houston in 1928, I wish to say that I shall cross that bridge when I get to it. Mr. Editor.
A Different
As a resident of the South, Mr. Editor, you know and I know that the trouble does not arise between the better class of white people and the better class of colored people in the South, because we know what they term "our place" in the South, and we stay in it.
When you form rank members, born and reared in the South, and knowing the conditions in the South, and knowing how to stay in their places in the South will seldom, if ever, have any trouble with what is known as the irresponsible element of white people in the South.
It is entirely different matter, Mr. Editor, to bring a large number of uniform rank members of our order from Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey or Massachusetts into the far South, and have them pass through the streets of one of our Southern cities with the name or initials of their State on the collars of their uniform, or to have them attempt to ride on one of our "jim-crow" street cars if insulted by the irresponsible elements of the opposite race, and if should attempt to resent the insult, a race riot would be the result, and, of course, irreparable injury to

The co ored Elks—the most colorful fraternal order extant among our (and, perhaps, the most largely attended—met last year in Bichmond, Virginia, the not oed of rebellion, secession, proscription, segregation, disfranchisement and "jim-crowism"; yet not one unoward incident transpired to mar the occasion, and both races in the Old Dominion State were tremendously benefited by the contacts made during the stay of the "Bills" in the former capital of the Southern Confederacy!
Chicago Crack Regiment in Texas.
Mr. Green spoke about the clashes between the cooled military forces and whites at Brownsville and Houston, yet he was not fair enough to add that the Eighth Illinois Regiment, commanded as is entitled, was trained to camp Logan (Houston) for several months, and no one so military clash was reported between the colored soldiers of this military outfit and local white civilians; and when the regiment was

It is remarkably strange how some supposed sane and sensible men can permit their brains to run riot and their brains to run amuck, and imagine all species of evil and dire things!
These Negro officers and soldiers walked the streets of Houston daily and nightly, with their chevroons on their uniforms, and no "irresponsible

ances say whether or not this editor must be and misrepresented the distinguished Dixie fraternalist. In *Green's article in last week's issue of The Infirmary* was certainly lengthy and voluminous for him to have such a brief case; we will not discuss it and attitude will ultimately prove a boomerang, either to him or the organization, or to both.
The bloody carnage of East St. Louis, IIinois, is still too fresh upon our memory for any man, be he Southerner or Northerner, to point the indicting finger only at the South!
Other Gatherings Embodied.
Then, to justify his actions the supreme chancellor cites a number of white, or quasi-white organizations which have refused to meet in the South because of the "probability of racial trouble"; yet he refused to mention that any number of national gatherings of Negroes have been held in the South and that no "racial troubles" were occasioned or precipitated.
It also appears to us that even Chicago, Illinois—America's most ideal and democratic municipality—had a terrible race riot some few years ago; and that it had its inception in a wrangle and fight because Negroes were bathing too near some whites in the cool and refreshing waters of Lake Michigan.
Reading further into the records, the name of Duluth, Monn., appears, with its awful lynching orgy; and the national capital, Washington, D.C., has not been free from an awful internecine disturbance.

rumblings from Dayton, Ohio, where an interracial conflict appears to be imminent; and Gary, Indiana, across the State line from Chicago, has adopted and approved a "jim-crow" public school system that includes a developmental other Northern centers with appreciable numbers of Negro students.
Supreme Chancellor's Opposition.
In order to keep the records straight, it would not be amiss to state here that the "sectionalism issue" was not raised by the Texas delegation to the supreme Pythian lodge; for if any sensible and rationally minded person read Mr. Green's letter to Grand Chancellor Willis of the Texas jurisdiction written from New Orieans, La., under date of July 22, 1927—practically one month before the vote was taken for the next supreme lodge meeting place—he discovered these words from the pen or typewriter of brer Green: "I have been and am yet of the opinion that it would not be advisable to the supreme lodge meeting the State of Texas under other far Southern States under the present conditions of discrimination, segregation and jim-crow cars as now practiced in the South. I shall, therefore, NOT FAVOR the convention of the supreme lodge coming to the State of Texas in 1929."
So much for his written word and his reasons assigned for his opposition to Texas and the South as host to the biennial supreme Pythian lodge, which is prima facie evidence that Mr. Green, himself, raised the sectionalism issue, either as a smoke screen or for obvious judicial reasons. No Good Reason. In his article Mr. Green praised delegates from Louisiana, Oklahoma and Mississippi for lining up with him against Dallas and the South, yet these self same delegates, or the majority of them, could offer no valid or sound reason why the convention should not be held in Dallas; and, when pressed for some definite reason for opposing the Texas city, they generally ended by saying, "Well, the supreme chancellor isn't with Texas!" or "Texas isn't right" etc. We had always thought that the supreme lodge was a democratic body, and that its memorial had some freedom of thought and action, but the chancellor failed to confirm or strengthen this belief.
If the continual meeting in Northern and Eastern cities has given the supreme body its do-nothing program, as was manifested during August at Chicago, then the order could hardy do worse by meeting once in the South. (Let us pray.)

Tells Skinny Men How to Gain Weight
Money Back 1F You Don't
If the flat chested man whose ribs are almost bursting through his skin doesn't try to make himself look like a seal map, no one else will.
When any man or woman needs more weight they ought to be told that the greatest of all flesh builders is McCoy's Tablets. McCoy takes all the risk—Read this ironclad guarantee. It after taking 4 sixty-cent boxes of McCoy's Tablets or 2 One Dollar boxes any thin, underweight man or woman does not gain at least 5 pounds and completely satisfied with marked improvement in need, or druggist is authorized to return the purchase price.
The name McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Tablets has been shortened—just ask for McCoy's Tablets at any drug store in America.
F/ETH ST. BAPTIST CHURCH
Last Sunday was the end of our rally period and Dr. Morris emphasized the importance of respecting our stewardship over earthly possessions. He solemnly warned against the machintions and deceitfulness of the god mammon.
Seven new members were given the right hand of fellowship at the Communion services at 3:30 o'clock. Pastor Morris preached the Memorial Sermon of the Starlight Beneficial Club at 8:00 o'clock, while many other helpful numbers of the program were rendered.
Miss Ruth G. Morris, who, with Miss Sarah Williamson has charge of 95 children at the Suehn Mission, Liberia. West Africa. Through the efforts tf Sister Luberta Blackwell and the women of the church, ocouagon was sent to Miss Morris some weeks ago. Sister Blackwell is now preparing a box to be sent in a short time.
Seven new Deacons were added to the Board at the quarterly business meeting Monday night. They are: Brothers Sidney Parker, Z. W, Landis, St., H. F, Wade, Joseph Henderson, L. C. White, Joseph Thornton and Edward Drummond. Miss Virginia D. Wood, our Field Worker has been doing excellent work among our members. From the Bookkeeper's report it is seen that the members have rallied in a very fine way for past nine months. Speech officers are now being made to pay $8,000 which will clear up our obligations for 1927. Mr. Kate Moley, who underwent an operation at the Retreat for the Sick, is at home. Sister Hattie Bradley, 615 St. Peter St. is also on the road to recovery. Deacon E. T. Coleman, 1002 N 81st St.; Brother Fletcher Allen, 409 Maple Avenue; and Brother V. L. Hawkins are quite slick.

At the close of the sermon, Miss Lotte died in singing a spiritual "Wow. Is the Neck" phrase "Twelve persons were gloriously converted and one other accession, and a total offering of $105.50. We gave Rev. J. W. Saunders $8 on his anniversary, and Virginia Theological Seminary and College $7.75 in the Educational Rally.

In Los Angeles last week, Max S. Hayes, farmer-labor candidate for Vice-President in 1920, told the American Federation of Labor it ought to start a labor party in 1928.
President Green, of the Federation, knows that failure is no good advertisement, and will not advise a step that would mean a miserably poor showing and hurt the prestige of organized labor. Union men know that one of two candidates will win the 1928 election, and they will reserve the right to vote for the one they consider the better man.
Every year there are born in Germany 15,000 pairs of twins, 200 sets of triplets. And a sprinkling of quadruplets. No nation has so many.
This human fertility is more important to Germany than any of her factories. The real wealth is human intelligence and industry, and the world's mothers create its real wealth.

Teen, young American singers—presumably the best in the country—will face the microphone at Station WEAF in New York City early in December to sing for fame and fortune. They will be the finalists—nine young men and five young women—in the National Radio Audition or singing contest, now being conducted in place of the states and the District of Columbia by the Atwater Kent Foundation of Philadelphia
This nation-wide quest for radio voices has already revealed hundreds of young singers of promise, who have entered the local and state contests eagerly because the auditions offer them recognition at home and a chance to compete for prizes aggregating $17,500 as well as tuition for further vocal instruction. Museum and civile leaders in each state have enthusiastically taken leadership in handling the contests and urging young singers to enter. A group of distinctive figures are sponsoring the undertaking as a National Audition Committee. They are Madam Louise Homer the Metropolitan Opera star, Mrs Edgar Stillman Kelley, president of the National Federation of Music Clubs, Edward W Bok former editor of the Ladies Home Journal and Mrs Otto R Kahn wife of the world-famous New York banker for many years the national backer of the Metropolitan Opera company

Near Riverton, Wyoming, Ted Lee killed 115 rattlesnakes with a shovel.
Rattlesnakes rely entirely on poison and conceit, which makes it easy to destroy them. So with those that pervert truth in history, religion, or otherwise. They rely on a poison which is not reliable, and are disposed of easily.
A British lady doctor, Dorothy Cochrane Logan, swims the English Channel in 13 hours and 10 minutes, cutting Gertrude Ederle's record by 1 hour, 24 minutes. This does not mean eclipsing the Ederle achievement. It all depends on wind, tide and waves, as you know if you have sailed across that rough, mean and choppy stretch of water.

This Voime tells the world how the Negro has won his place and his right to a voice in the affairs of mankind against prejudice, ridicule, face hatred, and almost insurmountable oppression. Many striking testimonials from the Secretary of War and Army officers of high rank and reputation are set forth in no uncertain terms. The following ringing words of Major General Bell, addressed to the famous "Buffaloes," the 367th Regiment, are typical of the high regard and respect of American and European officers for our colored troops. Every private in this regiment and most of the officers were Negroes. The General said:—
"This is the best disciplined and best drilled and best spirited regiment that has been under my command at this cantonment. I predicted last fall that Colonel Moss would have the best regiment stationed here and you men have made my predestination come true. I would lead you in battle against any army in the world with every confidence in the outcome".
THE NEGRO IN THE NAVY
More than fifty pages of the Book devoted to the Achievements of the Negro in the American Navy—Guarding the Trans-Atlantic Route to France—Battling the Submarine Peril—The Best Sailors in any Navy in The World—Making a Navy in Three Months from Negro Stevedores and Laborers—Wonderful Accomplishments of Our Negro Yeomen and Yeowomen
As we have fought for the rights of mankind and for the future peace and security of the world, the people want to be correctly and fully informed of the facts concerning OUR Heroes—and this is THE Book they are looking for THE ONLY HISTORY THAT WILL FULLY SATISFY THE AMERICAN COLORED PEOPLE. This Book appeals to the Colored People. They are eager to buy it. Why—Because it is the only War Book published that thrillingly, graphically yet faithfully describes the wonderful part that the Colored Soldier has taken in the World War and is absolutely fair to the Negro. It relates to the world how 300,000 Negroes crossed the North Atlantic, bringing the sors of the Submarine Perch to battle for Democracy.
The loyalty and patriotism that characterized the black man's nature his sublime self-sacrifice, his indisputable bravery, the wisdom of Negro Officers in command of their own troops.

So Many Lose Their Jobs?
Why Do So Many Lose Their Jobs?
Why do human beings fall out in each other, asks George A. Dorsey, whose latest book, "Way We Become Like Human Bones," is this or one of the six best sellers in the non-fiction field. The ability to get along with people he says, is not only the mask of happiness in social life but what is even more serious, thousands of people quit their jobs or get fired easily in New York alone simply because they are not good mixers. By way of illustration, he tells in the October issue of the Cosmopolitan in the many problems facing the school teacher, the stenographer and the clerk, and outlines the situations that prove their undoing. A triviality may lead to marriage, he says, and the cause of falling out may be as ecologically meaningless.
The sex problem he admits is a serious factor in business. He moves that the habits acquired the one likes and dislikes formed in early life, are responsible for the many persons remaining unmarried or the great number of divorces granted daily. Here are a few of the reasons for the various social cataysms on which he bases his solution to the problem: Every daughter suspects that either wishes she had been a boy affects women's behavior. Would girls have domestic haunts for shops and boiler factories if there were in sight?
