THE RICHMOND PLANET Virginia State Library VIRGINIA NOV 26 1927 STATE LIBRARY M. GARVEY RELEASED. Famous Leader to be Sent to Jamaica--The End of Long Struggle for Freedom. M. GA Famous L. Jamaica Strug ATLAN'1A. Nov. 23.—The 5-year sentence of Marcus Garvey, for using the mails to defraud in connection with his "back-to-Africa" Negro colonization project, has been commuted so that he may be deported. It was announced at the Federal postal service here today. Local United States immigration officials who hold a warrant for his deportation, as an undesirable alien, said Garvey would be sent to Jamaica "in the near future." Warden John W. Snook said at the penitentiary that the commutation was issued subject to deportation proceedings, and Garvey's release would await the action of immigration authorities to whom he would be delivered by prison officials. Marcus Garvey, who was president of the Black Star Line, a steam ship company, formed in connection with his "back-to-Africa" movement, was convicted in New York in June, 1923, and began serving his sentence on February 8, 1925, after his appeal from the verdict had been denied. His term normally would have expired on October 15, 1928. IDEAL NEWS. SPECIAL NOTICE. A program extraordinary will be rendered Tuesday night, November 29, 1927, at eight o'clock at Sixth Mt.

Justis and W. F. D. Denny, representing William Nelson a colored man, condemned to the electric chair for attempted assault coming from Hopewell, appeared before Judge R. Carter Scott in City Circuit Court Tuesday and sought habeas corpus proceedings for the release of their client, on the grounds that the clerk of the Hopewell Court "failed to make record of the conviction and sentence in the court document." Judge Scott refused to act in the case, preferring not to assume pre-rogatives that were those of Judge Robinson, of the Hopewell Court. Inasmuch as the date of execution is fixed for Friday, counsel were advised to confer with Governor Byrd as to a stay, in order that the case might be taken to the Supreme Court. Counsel for the condemned man stated that there was no record of the conviction and therefore Nelson was lawfully held in the penitentiary, where he is awaiting the end. It was stated at the Governor's office that the case had already been passed upon by the Supreme Court and that there was nothing further to be done. William Nelson, charged with at tempted criminal assault was placed on electric chair at the Virginia Penitentiary. Friday (wetday) shortly before S. A. M. On either side was a guard. He walked in without a tremor, took his seat in the chair as coolly as though he was at home, not a word being spoken by any one. The oideal was over in a few minutes and his body was carried out by attendants. So quickly was the work done that there was no evidence of suffering or the grue some scenes attending an old time hanging. Attorney W. F. Denny, the famous criminal law attorney and the brilliant white attorney W. M. Musick exhausted all legal means to save him. He declared he was unconscious.

Reasonable. Boulevard 128. RICHMOND. VIRGINIA. SATURDAY. NOV. 26, 1927 RICHMONDS OWN THEATER MOSQUE LAUREL & MAIN STS. RUN BY THE PEOPLE FOR THE PEOPLE Phone Mad. 2793 Attractions of extraordinary interest have been billed next week for the new Mosque, Laurel and Main streets, including such features as Arnold Johnson's Entertainers, just completing a successful Broadway engagement; Ruloff and Elton, spectacular dancers; the Dane Sisters, captivating harmonists in an intimate song recital; "The Chinese Parrot," rated one of the season's best mystery plays; another complete episode of the lively comedy, "The Collegians;" William Boyd in "Dress Parade," an exciting romance of Wess Point, and a variety of supplemental features. Arnold Johnson's Entertainers is more than a first grade stage orchestra. It is a company of genuine artists, singers, dancers and comedians, presenting the newest melodies of New York musical comedies and night clubs in a style distinctly original. Arnold Johnson's Entertainers is recognized as one of the best acts of its type on the American stage. Ruloff and Elton, featured in a numb of musical comedy hits, will be seen in a sensational array of dances, embracing the classic, acrobatic and ballroom styles, given in a colorful setting. The Dane Sisters have been compared with the well-known Duncans as harmonists. They will tender a generous batch of new songs. It is the policy of the Mosque to present only what are described as headline attractions and these acts are heralded as well within that classification. "The Chinese Parrot," adapted from the wierd mystery tale of the same title by Earl Derr Biggers and featuring Marian Nixon and Hobart Boswbrth, concerns the strange disappearance of a priceless pearl necklace. An ingenious thief, a Chinese detective and a desert hatcha are important items in this unusual story of thrilling adventure and the clue to the mystery is held by a parrot. "The Chinese Parrot" will be presented Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, together with "The Colony of the Brisk comedy of modern college life." William Boyd, in "Dress Parade" with Bessie Love, will be the particular feature the last three days of the week. It is a stirring romance of West Point life. This thrilling picture, which builds through a lifely fight to a powerful climax, was taken at the United States Military Academy. The trouble at the Mosque is that when you sit down in one of those cushioned seats for 25 cents, you do not feel like getting up again for 50 cents. They are everlastingly comfortable. DO YOU KNOW THEM Baltimore, Md., November 5, 1927 I desire to find my sons, James Randolph and Roosevelt Baylor. They worked at the glass factory there. I have not seen them for eight or nine years. James is 25 years of age and Roosevelt is 23. Randolph is tall, brown skin with heavy eye-brows. Roosevelt is of light complexion with reddish hair. Any information will be thankfully received by their heart- broken mother. MAMIE BAYLOR, 502 N. Central Ave. Baltimore, Md. The identity of the colored woman who was found dead recently at 506 1-2 N Fourth Street remains a mystery. Virginia Duck is now regarded as an assumed name. The body is in charge of Funeral Director H. L. Minor and may be buried by the city. Editor Richardson Comes Again. Brilliant Texan Assails Supreme Chancellor Green---Produces Both Sides in Dallas Informer The editor of The Informer is in receipt of a letter from a close friend written from a Northern center, who opines that this paper's "attack" on Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green of New Orleans, La., "is making friends" to the titular head of the Colored Knights of Pythias of North America, South America, etc., and that we should desist in our "fight on Mr. Green and not make a marry of him." We appreciate this letter, its contents and sentiments, but neither The Informer nor its editor has attempted to wage a "fight" on Mr. Green or "attack" the Supreme Chancellor, per se. Our editorial comments have been actuated by a desire to do battle against a policy which we think will ultimately work to the detriment of the Order and the entire Negro race; and, in none of our editorials or articles have we made any personal attacks upon this distinguished Pelican City fraternalist. However, we might reiterate here for emphasis that no man in public life is above or immune from criticism, and because this editor differs and disagrees with the Supreme Chancellor and his supporters in their "sectionalism" issue, does not mean nor indicate that we are personal enemies or at "outs." Most assuredly, if the chief executive of the United States of America is both the subject and object of criticism and censure by the press of the country, no man in this republic, lc. who essays to serve in a public or quasi-public office, should regard himself as infallible and exempt from the liability of making mistakes. Even the old myth that the "king can do no wrong," (the "divine right of kings" doctrine) has been exploded and exposed. The charge has even been made and broadcast, that The Informer editor is trying to "destroy Mr. Green" and that our original editorial of August 27, 1927, entitled "Raising the Issue of Sectionalism," was "defamatory, insulting, unwarranted, vicious, scurrilous, etc. etc." Our people certainly do develop a warped method of reasoning and reaching conclusions, and it is narrow-minded, selfish and bigoted attitude assumed so often by most of our supposed leaders and their devoted followers and adherents, which wreaks untold damage to our racial cause! The editor of The Informer is now being bitterly denounced and vehemently excoriated by certain of the Pythian-Green "faithfuls" because this Texas editor did what few Negro Pythians will do, and that is, publicly disagree with the Supreme Chancellor. While commending Mr. Green for having the "courage of his convictions" in his anti-South attitude and hostility to the Supreme Lodge of the Order meeting in any city of the "far South" as long as the Negro race is victimized by segregation, jim-crowning, disfranchisement, and other abortions of justice, these same Green devotees, in the next breath, condemn this editor for having the "courage of his convictions" and putting them in print (Consistency, thou art indeed 2 rare, rich and priceless jewel!) The printed word always appears more overwhelming, convincing and convicting than the spoken word; for, long after the spoken word is forgotten, the printed word is still preserved, and, in many instances, becomes Luanco's ghost which can not be downed. It was perfectly all right for Mr. Green to have certain fixed opinions and express them in a public address but it is all wrong for the editor of The Informer or any other publication to take an opposite attitude and print them in a newspaper! (Let us smile!) Any editor who dares to pursue such a bold and the "daringable sin," and is guilty of every offense in the catalogue of crime; being also a fraternal heretic and racial traitor. (Pray mightly, church!) The Informer is not trying to de- thone the present Supreme Chanc- eller, nor has this paper any candidate to bring out against the present titular head of the Order; but if either the Supreme Chanceller or any of his supporters are obsessed with the idea that their fraternal chieftain is above and beyond criticism, then, they are "all wet" whatever that bit of slang implies and denotes. Having been informed that the Supreme Chancellor was circulating mincegraphed letters, which he had received from some of the "brethren," supporting and approving his Chicago speech and tirade against Texas and the South, the editor of The Informer wrote to Mr. Green for a copy of same, offering to publish same in the columns of this paper, and permit the readers to reach their own conclusions; but at hour of going to press the Supreme Chancellor has not forwarded the requested literature. However, The Informer has been able to secure copies of these letters and resolutions from another source, and we are publishing them, verbatim (even to punctuation, grammatical errors, etc.), elsewhere in this issue. Our readers will observe one letter written by Hon. E. B. Barc, Grand Chancellor of the Colored Knights of Pythias of Massachusetts who was the guest of the Texas Grand Lodge last June at Austin. Mr. Barc will be remembered as the one arm gentleman who, boasting of the fact that he is a native Southcriner (hailing from Florida), stated at the Austin meeting that, while he was not anxious to see the Supreme Chancellor die, when the end did come, he (Barc) would vote for W. S. Willis as the next Supreme Chancellor of the Order. This is the same Mr. Barco who fought side by side with Texans and supreme representatives from other States to bring the 1929 Supreme Lodge to Texas, which attitude on his part caused a rift in his Bay State delegation. Our good Br'er Barco was so anxious to run into print and regain the "good graces" of the Supreme Chancellor, that the poor fellow—despite the fact that he had a copy of our newspaper and had read Mr. Green's open reply and attempted coinderer thereto—did not even take time to see the correct name of this paper, and refers to it in his letter as "the Texas Reformer." Thanks for the name and the task it imposes, Br'er Barco; but for the present we are satisfied with the journalistic role of "informing" (telling) the people what's what and who's who, believing that when the people are properly and thoroughly "informed," they will take care of the "reforming." But after all, guess the Massachusetts fraternalist is right, at least in part; for, in its final analysis, the Houston Informer is a "reformer." Selah! THANKSGIVING REVIVAL. Mosby Memorial Baptist Church will begin its Thanksgiving Revival next Sunday, November 27, 1927. Dr. C. H. D.

Calvary Baptist Church Richmond now has an opportunity to show her appreciation to one of her sons, the Rev. C. A. Cobbs, pastor of Mt. Calvary Baptist Church. Rev. Cobbs has paid off the indebtedness of more, than $12,000.00, besides $4,000.00 worth of improvements. He has added about 400 members to the church during his eight years of service. Rev. Cobbs is a graduate of the Virginia Union University and has lost no time in giving service since the beginning of his career. Mt. Calvary Baptist Church was founded in 1848 by the Rev. Archer Ferguson. D. D., grandfather of Rev. C. A. Cobbs, Ferguson was for many years President of the Baptist Ministers' Conference of Richmond and Vicinity. He was suceded by Rev. A. Hobbs, D. D., now pastor of the Jerusalem Baptist Church, of Norfolk, Va., who built the new Mt. Calvary Baptist Church in 1912. He was succeeded by Dr. W. H. Harris, predecessor of the present pastor, Rev. C. A. Cobbs. Rev. Cobbs is also Secretary of the Baptist Ministers Conference and Grand Chaplain of the I. O. S. and D. of Botheleham. Not only has Rev. Cobbs, under God and with the cooperation of his loyal trustees, A. D. Daniel, John Barber and the late William Sewell, been able to carry Mt. Calvary Baptist, Churches to success and as pastor of Seven Pines and Second Bethel Baptist Churches, has built a new structure at Seven Pines estimated at $5,000 and added $2,500 worth of improvements to Second Bethel. Rev. Cobbs is loud in his praise of the Trustee Board now co-operating in remodeling Mt. Calvary Baptist Church, under the supervision of A. D. Daniel, Chairman of the Trustee Board and also the cooperation of the Deacon Board. The program for the week's services follows: Sunday, November 27, 11:30 A. M. and 8 P. M., Rev. G. W. Brent, D.

PRICE, FIVE CENTS. Rev. Long Accepts Call. Will Come to the Second Bapt. Church. Curious Parliamentary Tangle Rev. C. M. Long, who at first declined the pastorate of the Second Baptist Church, after a practically unanimous call, and which declination was acted upon by the church, is reported to have reconsidered his action and to have notified the Second Baptist Church, through one of its offals that he can now accept the call. The situation is now peculiar and inexplicable. Both the community and five on the call of the church has passed out of legal existence, for at the last meeting of the church, a committee of fifty was named to recommend a divine for the pastorate. FRIENDS ACTIVE Rev. Long's friends are now active and claim that they will secure his services despite the parliamentary tongue now presenting itself. It may be that the church will reconsider all that it has done in acting upon the letter of Rev. C. M. Long declining the pastorate and proceed to regard the matter as closed and hold that he is now pastor of the Second Baptist Church. Others content that the committee of fifty must extend a call to Rev. Long, and he can accept it, thereby ending the matter. Later Report. The committee has voted in favor of Rev. Long's acceptance.

BONES OF FOOT, SHOWING ANTERIOR METATARSAL ARCH TOO HIGH AND INSECURE HEELS, CAPRING WEIGHT TOWARD FOREPART OF SHOE EXAGGERATED HEIGHT OF HEEL, AND CRAMPING TOES, ON FIFTH AN Too High Heels and Narrow -Toed Shoes Harm Delicate Metatarsal Arch, Says Dr. Wm. M. Scholl. CHICAGO. III.—The impact of hard pavements, ill-fitted shoes, including those with exaggerated high heels and narrow toes, insufficient exercise to keep the foot "toned up," bad vocational conditions, and bad hygiene generally, are reflected in the spread of foot aliments in the United States, Dr. Wm. M. Scholl, noted foot hygienist and orthopedist said today. The delicate structure of the human foot is not biologically adapted to the great strain to which it is subjected by modern civilization, and orthopedist said, "In the foot man has an exquisite mechanism, but it is subjected to a degree of abuse, misuse, and neglect which are working havoc with its structure and functioning." he stated. "An example of delicacy of structure unequal to many modern demands is found in the arch in the forepart of the foot whose function is to afford a yielding surface when the foot comes in contact with the ground. It provides elasticity and takes up the shock of contact in walking." If the underside, or ball, of any normal foot is inspected it will be found arranged in the form of a concave arch. The arch extends from the base of the big toe (at the first metatarsal) to the second (at the metatarsal). It is known as the anterior metatarsal arch. The metatarsal bones in the center of the foot are connected with the phalanxes or bones of the toes. These bones are comparatively small which permits their graceful, arch-like arrangement. They are connected by strong, white, inextensible tissues known as ligaments. When the ligaments and muscles and foot structure generally is weakened the arch loses its elasticity. The bones are forced out of position by the heat weight of the body since the weakened ligaments or muscles are not strong enough to not bring them back into their normal relations. This often happens when exaggerated high heels carry the weight forward, widening the foot to narrow-wide shoes. PRESIDENT BY AUTHOR BRISBANE TO PREVENT FLOODS. A CLOWN'S DEATH. LET HER MARRY. A NIGHT CLUB LADY. Senator Watson says everything that CAN be done, will be done, by Congress to stop the Mississippi floods. If that programme is carried out Mississippi floods will be stopped. Congress can, if it will. Herbert Hoover will show how it can be done, with the assistance of other able engineers. If this country doesn't think it worth while to spend half a billion once and for all to stop floods that cost a billion at a time, it is a foolish country. Marceline, famous clown, rose to the top of his profession. Millions laughed at him, children especially as he went about, with bright pink nose, baggy clothes, always serious. He is dead today. He shot himself to death, alone, poor, in a miserable furnished room. Photographs showing him in the day of his glory were spread before him on the bed, as he kneed to blow his brains out. "Laugh, and the world laughs with you. Weep, and you weep alone. Ella Wheeler Wilcox wrote her well known poem the morning after her first party when she was seventeen. In the train, going to the party, she saw a woman weeping. Her dead husband was in the baggage car. Mrs. Wilcox said: "I thought I could never smile again, after crying with that poor woman. I went to the park, and danced when I woke up in the morning, ashed to think how easily I had forgotten."

Platinum has been found in Alaska, where one man makes $200 a day by primitive mining. That will start travel to Alaska and what used to be called "Seward's Folly" because Seward paid $8,000,-000 for it. Eight thousand million dollars would not buy it now, and a hundred thousand million dollars wouldn't pay what it is really worth. John Seybold, seventy-one, a farmer, wants back $7,500 paid a medium. Seybold talked to a spirit named "Sarah," liked Sarah's voice, paid for Sarah's wedding dress, at her request donated $500 for wayward girls. Then, after he had spent $7,500 to please Sarah, on her promise to come to earth and marry him, "Sarah," says the farmer, "never showed up." Do not laugh. This old farmer simply paid in advance for happiness to come later. Believers in some of many religions on earth, the false ones, are now doing the same and will be disappointed as Farmer Seybold was disappointed. Their disappointment will come hereafter. William Hohenzollern's sister, Princess Victoria Schumann, Luppe, aged seventy-one, marry a young Russian only twenty-seven. Lutheran clergyman refuses to marry them, saying the difference in age makes it "unethical." To refuse marriage to those entitled to marry seems unphysical. The spirit alone counts and many a woman of sixty-three is younger in spirit than thousands of others at twenty-three. And what about Sarah, whose husband, Abraham, was 100 years old when her son Isaac was born, and Sarah not so much younger? Do Lutherans lack faith in this twentieth century? Let them read the Twenty-first Chapter of Genesis. A lady who manages a night club marries her daughter to a British peer, and the world wonders for a minute. It need not wonder. Read the memoirs of the Duke de Saint Simon, and learn how eager were men, with the greatest names, to marry any sort of illegitimate daughter of a queer king. The history of England will also tell you on with many of the great "titles" based, namely, on "easy virgin royal caprice"; a Night keeper is a REAL lady company with some well known duchesses in history. THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND' VIRGINIA Magazine Page TO HIGH AND INSECURE HEELS, CARRYING HEIGHT TOWARD FOREPART OF SHOE "When the weakened arch gives way undue weight is thrown upon the heads of the displaced metatarsal bones, at the ball of the foot, causing callosuses to form on the sole of the foot, and a resulting burning sensation. The misplaced bones may press against nerve fibre, causing excruciating pain, or even severe cramps; the construction may obstruct the circulation of the foot, and arch drops, the foot widens, often spreading the uppers of the shoe beyond the sole, distorting the shoe. "No two human feet are alike," said Dr. Scholl, "and it is impossible to restore the shoes to its normal position by shoes. Shoes are made over lasts which are fashioned not for the individual foot but for the feet of many. Thus the foot is forced to accommodate itself to the contours and position of the shoe. When the arch is weakened and unable to resist the strain imposed upon it, surgical plates or arch supports individually adjusted to the foot, will restore the arch to its normal position, providing the necessary correction and stimulating muscular control. "No woman who neglects a weak or distorted foot can remain well shod, for the foot will then soon force the shoe out of shape." Dr. Scholl declared. "It is not necessary for any woman to injure her feet to be stylish shod. I am not opposed to a reasonable height of heel. There may be cases where it is advisable, especially when the foot and leg muscles have become habituated to it. Never has there been such fine sensible and attractive footwear as today. Where foot weaknesses are due to systemic causes or illness the family physician should be consulted." Our Practical Pattern No. 1253 Fashion is doing such interesting things in the way of line and fabric treatments on afternoon frocks. Here, for instance, is the pointed line in yoke and skirt. Crepe satin in black, makes up this model using the crepe side for the blouse and the shiny satin side for yoke and skirt. Crepe Roma and velvet is another combination, developed, let us say, in belge crepe for the blouse and golden-knowlen velvet for yoke and skirt. This contrast of color and material is its own thrilling, the other element being necessary, accent the smart ring-tone figure at neck and waistline.

This exercise is useful in cases of weak foot and contracted anterior muscles. 8—Dorsal flexion; extend the leg and bend the foot as near towards you as possible. This stretches the posterior calf muscles and Achilles tendon. Standing on your bare feet, raise your toes on the floor and return slowly. 10—Standing on bare feet, bend toes downward.

Many striking testimonials from the Secretary of War and Army Officers of high rank and reputation are set forth in no uncertain terms.

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 prediction come true.
