BYRD APOLOGIZES FOR AF
FRONT TO FOREIGN ENVOY
AT FESTIVAL.
Samy Pacha Ordered From Stand
Assigned Him By Woman.
Explanations Prove of No Avail to Mrs. Frances Reynolds.
Winchester, Va., May 3.—The indignant withdrawal from Winchester by Samy Pacha, minister from Egypt, who is one of the distinguished visitors to the Apple Blossom Festival, was averted today by Governor Harry Flood Byrd. The diplomat, deeply affronted, threatened to return to Washington after Mrs. Frances M. Reynolds, a member of one of the festival committees, had abruptly ordered him from his point of vantage on the portico of Handley School, from which he was observing the coronation of the festival queen.
Governor Byrd apologized to the plenipotentiary, who accepted the apology and decided to remain.
The minister, it is understood, was with members of Governor Byrd's staff, officially detailed to accompany him, and with his wife a party of other ladies, his secretary and his attache. They had proper passes through the police and official lines, and had gained admittance to the porch of the school, when they were accosted by Mrs. Reynolds, a member of the ceremonial committee, who informed them that every one would have to leave the portico.
It is understood that the explanation made to Mrs. Reynolds, that his excellency was a distinguished visitor and that he was being given a place of honor on purpose, made not the slightest difference to her, and that she still insisted the party withdraw.
This the minister, in great hurt and bewilderment, finally did, in spite of the protests of the Virginians who were with him.
When he returned to the hotel, Colonel Bryan Conrad, acting chief of the Governor's staff, members of the staff, officials of the apple blossom festival, and the Winchester city officials apologized, but to no avail. The minister was determined to leave, because he felt that the dignity of his country had been insulted, since he was attending the festival in official capacity.
It was only when Governor Byrd came to the hotel and in his straight-forward and generous said, "I'm awfully sorry, I wouldn't have had it happen for anything," that the minister shrugged his shoulders and said, "It is all right—we forget it."
Mrs. Reynolds, when reached over the phone last night, refused to make any statement in regard to the encounter, beyond admitting she was a member of the ceremonial committee.

APPEAL LIKELY FROM TWO-YEAR TERM IN PRISON.
Mary Hall, of Lynchburg, May Fight Amherst Court Decision—Is First Conviction Under Racial Law.
Appeal from a two-year penitentiary sentence imposed on Mary Hall, 24, of Lynchburg, on a charge of intermarrying with Mott Hamilton Wood, 27, alleged mulatto, is contemplated by defense counsel on the ground that Wood has not been shown to be a Negro under specifications of the Virginia racial integrity law. This was the first conviction under the law.
This statement was made by telephone yesterday from Lynchburg by A. S. Hester, attorney, who, with Lucian H. Shrader, represented Wood in his trial before the Circuit Court of Amherst County, where the marriage ceremony was performed.
Mr. Hester confirmed the report of the jury verdict last Tuesday night. Wood first was arrested June 29, 1927, and a first trial last December resulted in a hung jury.
As a result of this case, Dr. W. A. Pleaker, State Registrar of Vital Statistics, said last night, John Powell and others interested in racial integrity tried at the last session of the General Assembly to have the State law amended.
The present law, it was brought out at the first trial, defines white persons and provides prison sentences for intermarriage, but it does not define a Negro.
Defense counsel asserted the law is "iniquitous" and unconstitutional. It will prevent marriage of children of Wood's three sisters, who married questionably white men, Mr. Hester said. He alleged, further, that their race was never questioned in the church where both Wood and the girl, recently from North Carolina, attended.
In Amherst County is a colony of persons claiming to be Indians, who are described locally as "free issues." John Powell, the pianist, and other Virginians interested in preserving racial integrity on the claim that inter-marriage breaks down good qualities of both and is biologically harmful, have studied this group and others for some time.
It is generally asserted by those who back efforts at racial integrity legislation that several colonies claiming to be Indians are in most instances persons whose family tree includes African and white and frequently Negro blood.
The question of race hitherto has aroused controversy resulting in litigation only where some child was excluded from white schools because of alleged Negro blood.
Some sentiment has been expressed in favor of leaving out of discussions any persons who have been accepted as white. The argument of defense counsel in the case in point was centered on what they called the injustices of disqualifying a whole family.
Because the law does not define a Negro, but does define white, it was possible to sentence the woman in the case at prison. The husband in the case at present is in the Amherst jail, held pending appeal.

SHEPHERD NOTES
The Shepherds Ten Nights Bazaar which closed on the 4th of May was signal success. We feel deeply obliq gated to the Chairmen and members of different committees who conti based their time, energy and money to make this affair a success. With such loyal men and women we will be able to accomplish our desire in building our Order. We prize very highly our opportunity to explore and discover additional workers for our society. Without the consideration of the financial gain this discovery is worth alone the trouble of staging the Bazaar. The Grand Of Officers wish to express personally to every man, woman, boy and girl who contributed in any way to the success of this entertainment, their thanks.
Our minds are becoming more con contrated on the annual sermon of the Folds of the City of Richmond and which will take place the second Sunday in June. We are preparing for a more elaborat demonstration than we have ever witnessed on an occasion of this kind
ACCEPTANCE AND DEDICATION OF BAPTISMAL FOUNT AT THIRD STREET A. M. E. CHURCH.
The formal dedication and acceptance of the beautiful baptismal fount, donated to Third Street A.M. A. M. Church by Mrs. Harriet B. Page, was held Sunday, April 29th, 1928, at 3:30 P. M. immediately preceding the merriliness, a short program was rendered as follows:
History of the Church—Brothers Johnson, Smith and Williams.
Solo by J. T. Woolfolk.
Duet by Mesdames Erma Morris and Alma Mosby.
Solo: Church is Moving On, by Mrs. F. P. Clark.
Sister Harriet Page was then led to the rostrum and the fount was unveiled by the two children of Mrs. Erma Morris amid a solemn hush, the acceptance sermon being delivered by Rev. W. E. Spratley, pastor of the church.
Sister Harriet Page wished the fount to be a lasting memorial to her and as such it is a solid white piece of marble, weighing about 1000 lbs., and is placed within the chancel rail, below and to the right of the pulpit. Mrs. Page has been a member of Third Street nearly fifty years, serving faithfully under twelve pastors and occupying some of the most responsible places of trust and confidence, being at present the oldest member of the Stewardess Board. The pastor, officers and her many friends wish for her many more happy years of fruitfulness.

MOSQUE THEATRE OFFERINGS.
The Mosque Theatre continues to lead in the kind and quality of the attractions presented to its patrons. No other playhouse here equals it in this respect. The program this week has been superb. The order of performance has been as follows: Organ solo, Mosque comedy offering, Mosque News Events, and the stage presentations, which included Jack Sidney and his "Bathing Beauty Revue," featuring Ross and Gilbert, Burdy and Norway, and Guby and Smith. In one of these selections one of the performers astounded the audience by changing his voice to that of a woman and he sang a melody that rivalled some of the best female songsters. The variegated lights in this palatial playhouse are so arranged as to form combinations, which change not only the colors of the expensive stage draperies, but the attire and complexions of the artists themselves. As was shown themselves, who wore straw hats, white pants and dark coats were changed as to the coats and pants and faces into a purple color, while their shoes, hands and hats were white and the carnation changed to crimson, while they continued the dance. The stage setting was gorgeous. A large crowd was present and the audience encored again and again.
Gilbert and Sullivan's Opera Company is coming and will present "Ielandite," "The Pirates of Penzance," "The Mikado." They have been two years in New York and this is their first transcontinental tour. Just how Richmond was placed on the circuit can only be accounted for from the fact that this city has a palatial playhouse with a seating capacity large enough to make it a paying investment. Seats will be at a premium. The New York Times says that Gilbert and Sullivan is matchless.
Gilbert patrons are gradually finding the new entrance marked Balcony Entrance. While it is not ready and will not be until the city completes the task of building the Court from Laurel to Cherry streets, it is being used, it being similar in every respect to the Main street entrance. A court is described as "an uncovered area partly or wholly enclosed by buildings or by walls and grates. Large houses in France and elsewhere in Europe commonly have entrance on a court, which when very large and showy is called a "court of honor." The city council has officially made this area between the Mosque building and the church a court and it only remains for the improvements to be made to finish the work and make it an official entrance.
PEW RALLY AT SIXTH STREET

The statesman who used to send copies of speeches by franked mail now orates into the microphone. William Tyler Page, clerk of the House of Representatives, says that "home-consumption" matter malled as government documents, is on the decrease.
"There are fewer speeches being sent at the time," he told the House Appropriations Committee. "My theory is that radio is providing a partial substitute for the printed communication."
But radio still has a long way to go. More than forty-four million Congressional speeches and documents without stamps were handled by Uncle Sam during the last Congress. The Postoffice Department would undoubtedly be delighted if the mail were completely eliminated by radio as distributor of Congressional emanations.
National issues by Sonators and Members of the House is welcomed by the great broadcasting stations, according to M. H. Aylesworth, president of the National Broadcasting Company.
"I think people are interested in brief talks by statesmen," he told the Senate Interstate Commerce Committee.
"How about politicians? Do you disinguisht between statesmen and politicians?" asked Senator Wheeler.
Senator James E. Watson saved Mr. Ayleworth from answering by interjection of Thomas Reed's definition of a statesman as "a politician who is deserved."
"I hope the Senators and Members of the House will use radio for discussion of important matters of the day," continued Mr. Ayleworth. He added that the National Broadcasting Company has no intention to ask payment for use of its facilities for such transmission, provided matters discussed are of national interest and importance.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Production of margarine in the United States for January reached a total of 25,037,001 pounds, an increase of 2,699,600 pounds over the same month in 1927, or about 12 per cent, according to the Institute of Margarine Manufacturers. in a report here.
"If the January rate of production continues in the same ratio. 30,000,000 more pounds of margarine will be produced in 1928 than was manufactured last year, when the total production amounted to 242,654,698 pounds." the report states. In United States there are statistic companies making margarine, which to a very large extent is manufactured from the products of American farms.

Business Make Women Hard-Boiled Nonsense, Says Edith Mae Cummings
MAWS-BUT NO
TIME OUT
DETROIT—Does a business care when a customer needs help? Yes, yd-bold and remembrance.
"Not in the least," replies Edith Cummings, Detroit's multi-mileaire real estate operator, who manages to preserve her femininity by preserving that one may do two things—in an emergency, Mrs. Cummings whose sky rocket ascent from a phone switchboard to the press of her own corporation has become a tradition in business circles of the Strathec dictates to her photographer as her favorite beauty photographer waves her hair.
"The popular conception of the cut out-and-egg woman," said Mrs. Cummings to a talk before the Edith Cummings School of Business elector to be couple with a German legend. But the woman to business is by no means an American legend. But the
cess over the prostrate bodies of competitors.
"Business ethics have underpone a change. They have outgrown the thimberlingg stage. There is a dignity attached to trade such as women found only in learned professions.
"Business men today are not trying to raise each other out of the game. Co-operation has replaced competition in many industries, and the keenest competition lies not among those the same group, but among the various groups. Automobiles must compete with fur coats, musical instruments, period dresses and grand pianos.
"The most charming, kind-hearted and philanthropic men in the world are these hard-boiled business men, not need the business woman lose a lot of her charm or femininity merely because she is engaged in the most thrilling adventure these rather great times have to offer."

"DIVIDED THEY FALL."
The New York Times of the 7th inst., under the caption, "Divided They Fall," takes a gloomy view concerning the recent selection of Oscar DePriest as the congressional successor of the late Representative Madden from the First District of Chicago. It reminds us of a story that the late Dr. Booker T. Washington told with amusing gusto and astounding satisfaction. He said that there was a circus and in one of the tents was an attraction, which was described to be the most remarkable sight in the world.
Colored folks crowded in and found themselves "sold" for the only attraction there was a group of colored men tugging away unitedly at a rope, a rare sight at that time and almost unbelievable he said for Negroes never pull unitedly together. This is emphasized and elaborated upon in this readable editorial. It says:
Chaka, the Zulu King who almost kept the white man out of the interior of Africa, could point a moral for the Americans of African race in the First Congressional District of Illinois. That moral, his own, to concentrate the black man on the job in hand. News from Chicago makes it appear possible, however, that the negroes there will fail again to have a Representative of their own color because they have once more split among themselves.
The First District is composed of the first two wards of Chicago, plus several precincts in the Third, Eleventh and Thirteenth Wards. Negroes make up the overwhelming preponderance of population by race. These invaded and finally controlled the district during the lifetime of Representative Madden, they found him there, he was very friendly to them, and they never could agree on any one of their race to run against him, which would have meant his defeat. This very Spring a split among the negroes of the district renominated Mr. Madden. Upon his death the negro leaders were insistent that now a Congressman of color must go to Washington from Chicago to speak for the millions of blacks all over the country. There was ennuiism there was infiltration. Then a political committee named a former negro Alderman, Oscar de Priest, for the constitution, which heretofore has been equivalent to election. Perhaps as has often happened before, the white politicians on the committee yielded to the pressure in favor of de Priest because they knew his public record as an Alderman would be sure to bring out fierce negro rivals, particularly among the receptable and cultivated elements, and by division assure the election of another white Congressman.
At any rate, other candidates can come immediately upon de Priest's designation, contesting its legality and swearing he should not have the great honor of representing the race in Washington. If history repeats itself in the First Di trict, there will be no negro problem in this Congress, and Chaka's example—by white craftiness or colored inability to agree—will have been lost once more.
We shall observe with interest the developments in this section of the West. The Negroes of Chicago are on trial. The inherent blundering characteristics of this class of people may have faded out. The test will come when the independent element name another man to antagonize and defeat the chosen citizen of color first named to represent the colored people not only of Chicago, but of the entire country.

Richmond, Va., July 3, 1915
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 treble 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 Medicines 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.

PROUD OF HER BOY.
ASK P. M. WOOLEY.
SUPERSTITION AND FEAR.
THE BLOOMING SOUTH.
The mother of Captain Wilkins, who flew over the North Pole recently, is "glad my boy George has what he set out to do." We mothers don't say much, but we feel a lot."
Mrs. Wilkins thinks her son "made more of what he learned in a little country school than many man have been able to make of a college education." He built character in that little school.
The public school is the American school of opportunity.
Have you horses or cows? Ask J. M. Woolley, radiator head of U.S. radiator Company, about his development of a vacuum chamber for horses and cattle.
This writer, after tests, finds that the vacuum process cleans horses and cows to perfection, better, more quickly and economically than could be done by hand.
All dust, including the hair, is carried into a receptacle by air current. Horse barns and cow stables can be kept in perfect order, production of milk made easier. By the new method. And groomes no longer are obliged to breathe in dust as they clean the animals. Those who can afflict the machine should use it, and in dairies of any size its use should be compulsory—it takes disease-breeding flies with it.
Following the violent earthquake shocks in southeastern Bulgaria, many peasants went insane. Such insanity is caused by a combination of ignorance and superstition. An earthquake in this country, or a big fire, like that in Chicago, brings on a frenzy of rebuilding, and a boom in real estate.
We do not know much, and are not free from superstition. But we know enough not to go crazy when the earth slips and shakes a little.
With a few exceptions, like the Libson earthquake, superstitious fear has always been the worst part of a quake. Superstition has believed that the Lord was shaking the earth in anger. We know that old earth is only settling into her final shape, meaning harm to nobody.
The South is energetic and growing. Steven Smith of New York大学 will select North Carolina for his golf holiday. He is solving one of the most amazing-

EDITH MEE CUNNINGS
DETROIT--Will a woman ever occupy the White House?
"Yeah!" replies that eminent advocate of women, Edith M. Cummings, the millionaire real estate operator of Detroit. "Just as soon as one of those now entering public life makes us not mind she wants to be president." The Cummings optimism is easy to understand for her own career has confirmed herself. "She belief that women can own almost anything they go after. She myself rose from a telephone wizardboard to the presidency of her own company in four short years. Consequently, she believes in miracles." "Women are here," Madill McCormick, widow and daughter of politicians, who currently was nominated in Illinois. Ms. Fioreggera, by Cummings, who succeeded her husband in Congress, Ms. Emile Neyvel Hair, vice chairman of the Democratic National committee and key woman of her party, and a score of others already.

TheseIVE need, northbound from Miami, got off the train at Asheville, N.C. the other day to buy their respects to the governor; Judge O'Ganey, Surrogate James F. Poley, Board R. Gimbel, George Lourillier, vice-president of the Pennsylvania Railroad, in charge of its subsidiary, the Long Island Railroad and Arthur Foran, all of New York.
They all agree that North Carolina typifies the South and American progress generally.
The "whole State," said B. F. Gimbel, "seems as closely built up as the area between New York and Philadelphia."
The Cannon Towel Mill, biggest on earth, employs 500 men and women. The well known B.V.D. gentlemen and the great Chicago firm of Marshall Field have enormous manufacturing plants in North Carolina. Other manufacturing institutions spring up daily. The State has water power practically unlimited, at low cost an energetic working population and extremely good living conditions. Don't overlook North Carolina in your plans.
Flood waters of the White River have overswept levees, sweeping through five counties in Arkansas. In Mississippi the Tombigbee and Luxapalilla rivers are nearing the danger stage. More rain before Wednesday would mean serious danger.
Pertaps the Government will decide that $250,000,000 invested in flood control would be cheaper than another flood. Mr. W. S. Gifford, president of the American Telegraph & Telephone Company, will spend two thousand million dollars on new construction in the next five years. He will spend about one-third that amount to save crops and lives of his nephews in the Mississippi Valley.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Florida has the model railroad of the nation, according to the Daytona Beam News - Journal. No transportation system anywhere in the world exists. It. He service has been a tremendous factor in developing new industry along the East Coast of Florida. The stockholders and directors of the Flagger System in Florida are in full confidence in H. N. Roddenbaugh, who brought to the Florida East Coast Railroad a comprehensive understanding of railroad problems. They promptly financed a six million dollar improvement problem which Mr. Roddenbaugh personally directed. He converted the line into a modern double-track railroad with an electric block signal system. Oil burning engines were installed shops built, freight yards provided passenger stations erected. The high speed and practicality of the railroad made vice president and executive manager of the line large in the minds of Florida who are knowledgeable and eager appreciation of what truly great has done for Florida.

This Great Book tells all about the Negro Everywhere in the World War—How He Dfit His Duty.

This Volume tells the world how the Negro has won his place and his right to a voice in the affairs of mankind against prejudice, violence, race hatred, and almost inescapable exploitation. 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 H. addressed to the famous "Bulldoose," the 367th Repubilist, are typical of the high regard and respect of Ameri- can and Dominican officers for our colored history, military prowess and regiment and merit of the officers who were Nassau. The inaugural号:
"This is the best Missions and best drilled and best spirited regiment that has been under my command at this assignment. I predicted last fall that Oblieud Mear would have the best regiment stationed here and you must have made my prediction come true. I would find you in battle against any enemy 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 Trade-Atlantic Route to France—Battling the Submarine Pesil—The Best Sailors in any Navy in the World—Making a Navy in Three Months from Negro Saviors and Lovers—Wonderful Accomplishments of Our Negro Women and Yewwomen.
As we have taught for the rights of mankind and for the future peace and security of the world, the people want to be correctly and fairly informed of the facts concerning UCR Morros—and this is THE Book they are holding for.

Why not have one of our agents call upon you and show you how easily you can prepare for the inevitable? A postal, a letter or 'phone call is all that is necessary to bring him to you.
