The institution maintains the numerical record of recent years in spite of widespread economic depression. The School of Religion and the Graduate Division show an increase over last fall, with an addition of 10 in the School of Religion and '0 as against 32 in the Graduate Division. Among the new students enrolled are the son and daughter-in-law of congressman Oscar DePriest. O. Anton DePriest, Jr., is registered the College of Liberal Arts, major in commerce and finance, and is classified as a junior. His previous training was received at the Lewis Institute, a branch of the University Chicago. Upon completion of college work young DePriest plans to rely law. His wife, Mrs. Malcoma DePriest, a sophomore in the College of Education, having completed the work of freshman year at the Wittenberglege in Springfield, Ohio.

Jeffress and the congregation of the African M. E. Church, near here, were to open a week's revival, J. S. Deviney, and Deputy Sheriff H. E. Routh stole quietly into the church edifice and removed from the building 128 gallon fruit jars full of corn liquor. The entire 64 gallons were secreted between the ceiling and roof. Officers said they did not believe anyone connected with the church had any knowledge of its presence. Frank R. Rogers Acting Principal at Hampton Captain Brown Succeeds Major Washington Hampton, Inst., Va., Oct.—Frank K. Rogers, chairman of the Administrative Board and treasurer of Hampton Institute, has been named as acting director of the school to serve until the new president is chosen. Mr. Rogers has been with Hampton for thirty-three years. Capt. Walter R. Brown, for 14 years assistant to the commandant, has been promoted to the position of commandant with the rank of Major. These two important announcements were made at Chapel last Wednesday evening by the vice chairman of the Board of Trustees, J. Henry Scattergood of Washington, D. C., who is acting as chairman during the absence of Arthur Curtiss James who is at present cruising the Mediterranean in his yacht. Mr. Rogers, a graduate of the Worcester Polytechnic Institute, came to Hampton in 1897 to become the head of the newly organized Trade School. In 1905 he was elected treasurer of the school. Major Brown is a graduate of Hampton, both of the building trade and of the Normal departments. He came to Hampton in 1915 at the invitation of Major Moton, the commandant. When, a year later Major Moton was called to the presidency of Tuskegee Institute and was succeeded as commandant by the late Major Allen W. Washington, Capt. Brown became the latter's assistant. During 1928-29 he studied at the Graduate School of Howard University. 336 GUEST FIGHT JIM-CROW IN AN ICELAND HOTEL Reykjavib, Iceland, Oct. (CNA) Even in Iceland, an almost forgotten island in the middle of the Atlantic, American customs find their way. A Negro worker recently entered the restaurant of the Borg Hotel here, and was asked by the manager to leave. Instantaneously a protest arose from the guests who are unfamiliar with the usual practices in the United States. The manager, who is reported to have lived in the United States, attempted to stall off the fury of his un-American guests. After a debate of two days the guests forced a vote, the result of which was 336 for the admittance of the Negro, with nineteen votes against him. RICHMOND, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1930 Mr. Browne Thenton, N. J., October 13. 1930. Members of the I. B. P. O. E. of W., in large numbers attended the conference held in Trenton, N.

The conference was the erufoat The conference was the result of a previous conference held in Richmond, Virginia, August 17, 1980, following the decision in the United States District Court in the Virginia Eks case. Representative Eks from New York, Jersey City, Elizabeth, Trenton, Newark, Asbury Park, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, N. Y., Washington, D. C., Chicago, Ill., Patterson, N. J., Richmond, Norfolk, Smithfield, Suffolk, and Petersburg, Va., and other cities participated in the conference. W. L. Shivers of Smithfield, Va., presided, the welcome address being delivered by Attorney C. Bernard Johnson, Exalted Ruler of Sunlight Lodge. The conference resolved itself into a body to be known as "The Committee for the Preservation of the I. B. P. O. E. of W. and adopted a plan and program to carry out this object. Headquarters for the Committee will be established immediately in a centrally located city to be selected by the Executive Committee of this body.

Oct. 10.—Many anxious to pay the reverent tribute to a departed leader and friend were unable to find room in the Hampton Institute Memorial Church on the afternoon of Wednesday, October 8, at the funeral services of the school's late president, Dr. George Perley Phenix, who had died suddenly of heart attack. The body of the late president had lain in state from 10 o'clock in the morning. People from all walks of life had come to pay their last tribute to the dead president who had done so much for Hampton. A student guard of honor was composed of Enoch Hayward, Henry Jackson, Randall Parker and Thomas Sawyer, had stood in reverent watch during the day. The church was filled, and the front of the platform banked in flowers when the Hampton Institute Choir, under the direction of Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett, owed the service with the Easter spiritual, "Dust and Ashes." The Institute chaplain, Rev. S. Arthur Devan, pronounced the scriptural invocation. Rev. E. E. Bradley offered prayer, following which the congregation joined in the Lord's Prayer. After the singing of the hymn, "For All the Saints Who from Their Labors Rest," Rev. Mr. Daven read the verse, "The Hampton Institute Quartet sang, 'Let the Heaven Light Ship on Me.'" George Foster Peabody of N. Y. City, foster emeritus then spoke of Hampton widening influenceand of the comforting realization that its work and the influence of Dr. Phenix still live and shall go on. He said "Dr. Phenix had that marvelous quality of doing the work which was in his mind, in his heart; of pointing out the weaknesses, and yet of never at all pushing himself in the matter, so that many who looked superficially did not realize how completely the development of Hampton during these last twenty-five years was related to his splendid and super cooperation." He read a telegram from the president of the Board of Trustees, Arthur Curtiss James who is cruising the Mediterranean in his yacht, and added that Dr. Phenix's spirit is still with us, unconscious enterin the minds and strengthening our soul. He read also a telegram from another trustee emeritus, (Continued on Page 4) BY JOE SIMPSON A local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., was organized hert Thursday night Oct. 16, as a fitting climax to the enthusiastic mass meeting held at the Leigh Street Memorial Church, corner Fifth and Ligh Sts. and at which Mr. William Pickens, Field Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., was the principal speaker. Dr W. L. Ransome was elected temporary president, Mr. Wiley A. Hall, secretary, and Mr. Emmett C. Burke, treasurer. Mr. W. A. Jordan, Dr. Miles B. Jones, Mr. J. S. Collins, Mrs. Rosa Walton and Mrs. E. C. Burke, were named on the executive committee. Mr. Pickens, who is a very forceful, humorous and deliberate speaker, first called the attention of his hearers to the fact that the Association wanted a branch here that would remain live not one that would "live awhile" and "die awhile" as had been the case in the past. He was loud in his praise of the National organization, which he said was responsible for the creation of the Interracial Commission, he stressed the point of the Association as a Legal Defense, cutting numerous cases in which it has figured and emerged the victor, among which was, the "Louisville segregation case and the Louisiana case, also the Sweet case" in Detroit, in which case alone the association spent the sum of $40,000,000 o more. Mr. Pickens also stated that there were sufficient laws on the tasque books of any state in the union to break up the practicet of lpnching, provided the officers of the law willled to break it up, that the people who are definately for or against the Negro are in the minority, that great neutral majority being the ones that we should endeavor to influence in our favor. He stated also that if there was any community in the United States that should fight jim-crowism and wrongs heaped upon oclored people, it was Richmond, Virginia. He made it plain that the National Association's aim was not to engender ill feeling, but that good feeling must be based on justice. He said that he did not know of any ace of people in the world in the condition of the Negro that would do as little complaining as the people of Virginia. That he would lose hope for Virginia if he thought (Continued on Page 4) Tampa Teacher Advised to Keep Out of Schools Recently Lost Position As Supervisor Of Negro Schools. Tampa, Fla., Oct. 11.—In order to curtail a rumor that Mrs. Blanche Armwood Beatty, former supervisor of Negro Schools in Tampa and Hillsborough county, had been discharged from the position of assistant principal at the Booker Washington High School here, the staff independent of the Tampa Bulletin interview the proper local authorities and obtained the following information: "We are unable to give any authentic information regarding the case, but we do say that it was suggested that she must "keep Out" of the schools for the best possible interests. She will continue as supervisor of the rural schools for Negroes until January 1, and after that date said relationship will terminate with the schools of this county." Mrs. Beatty recently lost her position as supervisor of Negro schools in Tampa, and was appointed to the position at the high school until January 1. EDITORIALS Can Colored Richmond Co-operate? leadership, cooperation will be forthcoming. -This is where we should be propped up "On the Leaning Side." We have some strong fraternal and religious leaders and some business leaders. The great need is for strong business leaders, and this is where the great rub comes. All submerged races have a tendency to place little faith and confidence in its business leaders. The reason for this is, that the people have such little money to spend with its business men that it is well nigh impossible to develop men big enough to command and demand their serious attention. For instance, after that great horde of installment and divers collectors are turned loose on the colored population early Monday morning and work through Saturday night, there is not enough money left in Jackson Ward, to develop sizeable business geniuses in a business that could sell its products for one cent down and one cent a month. The Negro business cannot thrive on what is left after this army finishes its weekly attack. If business cooperation is exercised here (and it is), there is not enough of it to satisfy the dreams of our idealists. But to the question. Yes, we can cooperate, but until some thinker devises a more effective method for Negro control of wealth, it cannot amount to much. Views Of The Contemporary Press increased. Perhaps the large number of deaths by mob violence this year should not be interpreted as distinct retrogression, but rather as proof that the problem had not been settled nor the need for educative campaigning ended. The records show that similar temporary relapses have occurred in the past. For example, between 1923 and 1930 the annual number of lynchings was always under 18, with one exception; in 1926 they jumped to a total of 30. Likewise, between 1903 and 1923, the average was down around 60 or 65, yet the total jumped to 10 in 1926. However, the number of the Swatriya in the fact that it still has a serious problem of law and order on its hands will do no harm. As in the case of the temperance workers who quit campaigning after the prohibition law was enacted, the enemies of lynching may have withdrawn from the field too quickly. It is to be hoped that much good will come from the study of lynching which is to be given by Southern leaders, whites, and Negroes. Their conclusions may help matters, a result devoutly wished by every good man of both races. One matter worthy of consideration is the activities of the National Society for the Advancement of Colored People, such for instance as the defeat of Judge Parker. A few political demagogues have proclaimed this on the stump, as inciting race feeling, but the majority of sober thinkink whites have not believed that the rantings of these demagogues had any other basis than self advertisement. However, the recent distressing and humiliating outbursts of lynchings in the South give color to this assertion by a few politicians. It is worthwhile for such consideration to be given. The Society for the Advancement of Colored People will welcome such investigation, doubtless, for it is sincerely anxious to advance the cause for which it was founded, and should welcome advice as to best methods. The cheerful proverb that "every cloud has its silver lining," isn't always true, of course, but in most cases it is. In that of the "Black Shirts," for example—certainly a lowering cloud on the interracial horizon, lashed into fury by the winds of impassioned oratory and the forked lightnings of prejudice. It looked pretty bad for a time—and it did have dire possibilities, without doubt. But now turn the cloud around and take a look at the lining and you will see that the substantial elements in every community were united and active in opposition to the movement. The newspapers laughed and scouted it; preachers denounced it from the pulitics; officials refused it the use of streets and public buildings; civic and business organizations opposed it; employers of labor frankly defied it. With all its promises the organization did not succeed in turning a single Negro out of his job here in Atlanta, so far as we have been able to learn. Now the movement appears to be in a hopeless decline, though some of its leaders are still trying to galvanize it into life. They may again succeed for a time and raise another cloud; but that too, we hope and believe, will have its silver lining, and will ultimately disappear before a growing sense of interracial friendship and fair play. TIGER PLANET The past history of the Negroes in Richmond has convinced some people that is practically impossible for the people here to cooperate. Cooperation is relative and any rational discussion of it must necessarily be along such lines. When cooperation is generally mentioned around these parts, the speaker has in mind a 100 per cent cooperation in eliminating the racial barriers that seem to mark the Negro as distinct from other races. Such cooperation seems to be the dream of nearly Negro. This cooperation is barely possible in any group, but there is a cooperation, which when functioning healthily will serve to better our social, civil and economic status and in proportion as these are bettered we begin to enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It is fallacious to suppose that the white people of Richmond cooperate to the desired extent. Note the herculean efforts put forth by Richmond white papers and leaders to accomplish civic objectives. While this argument does not justify the Negroes lack of cooperation, it will at least show that we are $ \mathrm{n}_{0} $ exceptions to the rule when it comes to a natural tendency to cooperate. Co-operation is brought about by powers sufficiently strong to organize and promote it. Then it follows that when Richmond develops a sufficiently strong LAW (From the Asheville (N.C.) Citizen) As was to have been expected, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has reopened its campaign for the enactment of a Federal anti-lynching law. This organization, best known in this part of the country for its activities in connection with the defeat of Judge Parker for the United States Supreme Court, has been pushing the Dyer bill for years. It is endeavoring now to commit all candidates for the House and Senate to support of a similar measure. The opening gun of its present battle is a statement from President Hoover, given to the association under date of August 15th. "Every decent citizen must condemn the lynching evil as an undermining of the very essence of both justice and democracy," the President is quoted as saying. No one can pearl with that. It is absolutely and literally true. Mr. Hoover does not, it will be noted, commit himself to such support but the Republican platform of 1928 did promise the early enactment of a law "to exterminate the hideous crime of lynching." With eighteen lynchings already in 1930—twice as many as in the whole of 1929—it is not surprising that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People should have seized the present opportunity to make the enactment of a Federal anti-lynching law a political issue if possible. The Dyer bill passed the House several years ago by a 2-to-1 vote and was then put to sleep in the Senate. We do not believe that such legislation is the way to put an end to lynchings. There is serious possibility, we think, that it might, for a time at least, increase the number of lynchings. But the imminent possibility of the enactment of a Federal anti-lynching law must be taken into account. A SURVEY OF LYNCHING (From the Fitzburg, (Mass.) Sentinel, Sept. 25, 1980.) So fruitful had been the campaign against lynching in the last decade that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People stated in its report for 1929, "The association's 21st year of activity witnesses a rapid shifting of form and emphasis on the race problem." In 1929 the number of known lynchings was 12, while at the turn of the century the annual average was around 100. The association believed that it could now devote some of the energy formerly directed against mob violence to such problems as racial barriers set up by labor unions and emplovers. This year, however, has witnessed a relapse. Already the number of known lynchings in 1980 is double the 1929 figure, and the South is awakening to the acuteness of the situation. A commission of six recognized Dixie leaders has been constituted to make a scientific study of the question, which will include the compilation of exhaustive case histories of each incident of mob violence this year. Strangely, this lapse into racial hatred has occurred in the same year when an upright, able jurist of North Carolina was rejected by the Senate as a nominee for the Supreme Court because, among other reasons, he once spoke disparagingly in a political speech of the civil rights of the uneducated Negro. Moreover, Senator Coleman L. Blease, who supported Judge Parker and later hed the frontier of the South Carolina defeated in the South Carolina, primaries. In so far as these two isolated political incidents bear on the Negro question, they offer no evidence that racial antagonism has WORTHY OF CONSIDERATION (From the Columbia, (S.C.)

Who is most competent to judge as to the needs and worthness of any given project included in the chest? Is the managerial committee whose business it is to make definite investigation and give serious study to these projects or is the busy donor who often does not know even what projects are included?

Just which he does ought to be answered on the ground of expediency and in harmony with the real spirit underlying the whole community movement.

There of which have been inferred above does not savor of real community spirit opens a gap for improper lobbying and This privilege to designate the money this year has brought to the Negroes a serious question, if not a problem. Shall the Negro specify where his money shall go? The writer says that he should not and prays that he will not. There are several reasons, some of which have been inferred above: 3. It does not savor of real community spirit. 4. It opens a gap for improper lobbying and button-holding prospective donors. 5. The Negro will be criticised by his group if he does not specify this money to and for his own group. 6. To specify his money for his group only is to invite "jim crowism" from white donors. 7. It at least indirectly questions the competency of the community fund managers. 8. It breaks down the solidarity of the chest fund organization and invites a partizan spirit. 9. It puts an additional task upon the donor which he is not best suited to perform. THE NEGRO BAPTIST CONFERENCE The Baptist Conference of Richmond is worthy of commendation for putting itself on record, last Monday as looking with disfavor upon any colored person specifying as to just what project should receive the money given by him or her to the community fund. The writer hopes that there will be few who will resort to the privilege to be narrow, whether they be white or colored. "Mind maketh the man." Let us do our best for the community fund—in a community spirit. THE FAMILY DOCTOR By JOHN JOSEPH GAINES, M.D. The practice of medicine is not a business, in the strict sense of the word; it is a profession, based on zeal to serve humanity, to prevent sickness and suffering, to minister to mankind and to postpone death as long as humanly possible. Your family doctor does not claim to do miracles; he makes none of the pretensions of the quack. He does not advertise, for several good reasons: First, he does not need to; his work speaks for itself. Second, all quacks advertise; having little or no actual skill, they must make people think they have, by boasting of talent which they do not possess. Third, the doctor loathes humbuggery, and does not wear a mask. Fourth, he is in a profession, not a business; his work is largely humanitarian; a great per cent of it is for charity. Sometimes the editor gets mad because the doctor does not advertise as fake healers do; that's because the editor does not understand—and the doctor does not blame him for what he does not know. In fact the doctor is the editor's good friend, though often unappreciated. I never knew a good family doctor who didn't stand for everything calculated to uplift his community—especially churches, schools, good roads, every civic enterprise, in fact. That fact, if no other existed, should make a community respect if not revere the silent man who goes about doing good. The family doctor is, perhaps the most meagerly paid in proportion to his days and nights of toil, of any of the professions; very few family doctors are wealthy; indeed, many of them go quite plainly clad, and enjoy few of life's luxuries. The doctor's bill is usually the last paid—though I believe our people are slowly growing more appreciative of the good and faithful servant. The doctor is always a subscriber for his home paper, and reads it; if the sheet doesn't come up to his expectations in wisdom and policy, he says nothing, because he does not worry over afflictions that cannot be cured. Of all the ills that it is possible for man to become afflicted with blindness is one of the most dreaded evils that has ever been known to the human race, except death itself. Many people, if they were forced to choose between leprosy and blindness, would we believe choose the former, in preference to the latter. There is to be seen in Richmond, by the most casual observer violent symptoms of a malady that is prevalent the country over among Negroes, but in Richmond it has almost reached the epidemic stage. We believe the most appropriate name for this strange malady is "economic blindness," especially in view of the fact that it has the same degrading effect, the same deadening influence upon a body or a race of people as blindness has upon the body of an individual; it is a destroyer of initiative, a blaster of hopes and the bane of all opportunity. The writer has traveled over a good deal of this country, having worked in thirty-six of the forty-eight states of the union, and now where that he has ever been has the symptoms of this dreaded disease been so pronounced, as they are in the city of Richmond. "WHAT IS THE CAUSE?" Speculation is rife at present as to the cause of this terrible condition, but we believe that the causes can be almost completely determined by the close scrutiny and consideration of the four things that we determining factors, namely: 1. The lack of progressive leadership. 2. The attitude of the white man towards the Negro. 3. The Negro's attitude towards segregation and ostracism. 4. The former attitude of the Negro business man towards the Negro masses. There is an abundance of men here who are of the caliber to lead, but the trouble lies in the fact that they are inactive, they take no part in those movements that are of the utmost importance to the race, they take no part in politics which should be of utmost concern to every Negro in the south, they take no part in the financial activities of the rave, unless of course those activities will increase their own wealth or boost their own financial standing, they take no part in the economic uplift movements inaugurated for the benefit of the lower strata of the race, and last but not outlast, they take small interest in the affairs of the church; an institution in which they should play the leading role, for their injection of new policies, new thought and new life into the church's affairs, can the church, as well as all other human agencies, be saved from ultimate degeneration. 2. The general attitude of white people in Richmond is vastly different from the attitude of white people in the far south, in that, the whites in Richmond make a bid for the Negro's trade, in-so-far as the selling end is concerned, but when it comes to the service end, the Negro is an unknown quantity. There are few places in Richmond where a Negro can not buy almost any thing for which his physical or intellectual appetite could call, but it is only on certain conditions that he can obtain these things; for instance: A Negro can enter any restaurant catering to white trade on Broad Street, and buy food, but cannot sit in the dining room and consume that food. He can hire the most up to date Taxi-cab, but is not permitted to drive one for the same company. He can buy one-forth of the milk sold in Richmond, yet no milk agents are hired to drive milk wagons, not even in Jackson's Ward. These are only a few of the things that could be mentioned in defense of our claim that Richmond is afflicted with this dreadful malady called "economic blindness." In most places in the far south this state of affairs is exactly the reverse; the whites do not cater in any sense to Negro trade, they tell you very politely and very curtly, "We do not serve colored people here." This attitude on the part of the white population of the far south has virtually educated the Negroes of that section up to the point where they will not trade with whites unless they are forced by dire necessity to do so; and too, there are in most of these places restaurants, drug stores, confectionaries and other Negro business places, owned and operated by Negroes, situated on the principal streets and in the financial and business sections of such cities. 3. The Negro's attitude toward segregation and ostracism, is such as to warrant the most serious thought on the part of the people of this city who feel the weight of responsibility for the future welfare of the Negro in this city. They are almost to the point where they consider these evils as a matter of course, they have almost resigned themselves to this fate, some of them even considering it an honor to patronize these jim-crow joints. Negro places of business not being good enough or classy enough to accommodate their presence. This attitude in the past has been attributed to the illiterate class of Negroes, but on investigation we find that most of these acts are committed by the "cultured" class, those who think they are the upper strata of the race, and are the only example that the illiterate Negro has to follow. If the cultured set the example there is nothing left for the illiterate to do but to "follow suit." You will find Richmonds "elite" in the PEANUT GALLERY of the Lyric, the Mosque, the National, the Bijou and any other theatre where they will give them standing room in the "LOFT" for their money. There are some things that it is necessary for us to go to the whites to get, but there is no necessity for the Negroes filling up the "PEANUT GALLERIES" of the "white folks theatre." 4. The former attitude of the Ne- VIEWS OF THE PUBLIC Novels about women who are forty are always interesting. A novel by Hergesheimer is always interesting. But when Hergesheimer writes about a woman of forty look for something unusual in its claims upon the attention. His insight into their psyche is keenly penetrating and accurate. For this reason everybody who has not read will want to read his "Party Dress". Men in order to learn about women. Women that they may know what at least one man-I doubt not that there are a few others-has found out about them. The story is about Nina Henry luxury loving upper middle class woman of the country club set in an American suburb. A simple black evening frock direct from Paris-heir first one-makes her realize that she has never been in ove. Heh children have arrived at the ages at which they do not need to rely on her. Her husband only wants to be made comfortable. She is only mildly interested in Francis Amber, the most eligible bachelor, her junior, and her would be lover. In fact, she needs a major interest in life. At a country club dance this dress makes her the cynosure of all eyes. Later that night or rather that morning, she meets Chalke Ewing, who is spending his vacation from his Cuban sugar plantation with his sister. Chalke Ewing, always immaculately clad in white linen, always smoking long Cuban cigars except when he is mixing, serving and drinking his favorite swizzle. Chalke Ewing, on the surface-hard and cynical, but like all cynics, at heart an idealist. She falls in love with him. Marriage is planned between them. Her insistence, altogether characteristic of women of her age, makes him spend a night with her. In the morning he is gone. BACK TO CUBA. All her world comes tumbling about her ears, Chalke kills himself, Francis Ambler announces his engagement to the daughter of a woman with whom Nina's husband has been having a mild affaire. The provocative dress has been torn by a provoked man so is useless. Just as well. As she tells her husband, in the morning he will find that she has become an old lady. This in brief is the story. But you will miss a treat if you do not read it yourself. Hergesheimer has always been a master of the whiten word. That master is evident here. You live with Nina Henry in Nina Henry's world. Quite different is Hugh Walpole's Rogue Herries. It partakes of the fantasy-like qualities of his "Portrait of the man with Red Hair". It is a milieu novel covering the eighteenth century in North England. The story itself is slim. There are dramatic spots however. It even approaches melodrama at the end-when Rogue America's Tenth Man Atlanta, Ga., Oct.—A new edition of "America's Tenth Man," remarkable sixteen-page survey of the Negro's contribution to American history and progress, has just been brought out by the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, with headquarters in the Palmer Building in this city. This is the fourth edition of 10,000 copies of this booklet that the Commission has published, or a total of 40,000 copies, of which more than 30,000 have been distributed, chiefly to school teachers and pupils throughout the country. The pamphlet has been widely used as a study text in high schools and has been highly commended by educational leaders of both racial groups. Colored teachers say it fills a long-felt need in their schools, and white teachers that it has great value in giving pupils the basis for more intelligent, fair-minded interracial attitudes. The new edition is now ready for gro business man toward the Negro masses was, we believe caused primarily, by the fact that in the past Negro business and professional men were few and far between, this naturally caused them to set themselves apart from what they considered "the riff-raff" of the race, they felt a sense of pride and distinction that is foreign to the Negro business man of taday. The Negro business and professional men have been brought down off their "high horse" by the simple process of creating more of them, he can no longer feel superior to the rank and file of the race, and when the Negro masses become aware of this fact, then Negro business enterprises in Richmond will begin to prosper; not in a great measure however, until he has been cured of his almost chronic case of "Economic Blindness." Even some of the big business men and supposedly financial wizards of Richmond are afflicted with this malady, in act the masses in Richmond today are patiently watching a move that was made recently in which a long established Negro concern was involved. A large sum of money is being spent by this concern, a sum that would go a long way toward alleviating the acute unemployment situation in Richmond if it rad been allowed to go through the proper channels, but as it is the white man gets his hands on this money first, he is therefore at liberty to pay it ot as he pleases. It is a foregone conclusion that the "big money" paid to skilled laborers will be aid to white men, not NEGROES. It is a revolting thing to see white men sanding BOSS over Negroes at common laoor when we take into consideration the fact, that these white men are being paid to BOSS Negro workmen by Negro capital. If this is not ECONOMIC BLINDNESS, what is it? Herries dies just as his gypsy wife, Mirabell, dies in childbirth." The woman and the newborn child are the only living things in the house. But before he arrived at this end he had lived intensely. He kept his mis-tress in the same household with wife and children. He sells this mis-tress in an Inn for forty silver sings. He keeps in his house an old woman, supposedly a witch. When mob drowns he her carries her home in his coat. When late in life he man ries a gypsy girl and invites whole neighborhood into his house for the first time he has company-beats them out of it. When his wife leaves him because he wants the love which she cannot give he wander for years in quest of her. As in Patty Dress" we have a restless woman here we have a restless man. The tale of his son, Davy who grows first boyhood to the headship of a family of his own is interesting in its own right. In fact I am not sure but the story is not rather David Herries' than Rogue Herries'. It has no the breath taking sweep of Sabati Adventure tales. But an adventure tale it is none the less. Here's a "Preface to Morals" Walter Lippmann. The novel discussed morals only by implication but here Lippmann tries to establish a foundation for morals. In his part he discusses the breakdown the religious societies. Since moral codes are based on some relation or other with the Fundamentalist-contending weakly any not altogether religious faith resultant chaos has led to a chaos morality. To such an extent that might be called a loss of morals The Humanist movement of Babbi More and others by conserving the spiritual (?) values of civilization has built up a new religion. Mr Humanists would object to this a petition but Humanism partakes so many of the elements of a religion that the term is not altogether justified. Part two is devoted to living the good work of and explain what is Humanism. In part the Humanism is applied to the problem of present day life. For those cannot find the old order of Religion acceptable and yet who not accept as tolerable the rebarbarsim "the doing of what wants to do" Humanism is out. No one who pretends to can afford to be ignorant of movement. Lippmann's book vides one of the easiest ways of coming acquainted with it. It shall be read and read.

James T.

He made the further astounding declaration that upholding the decision by the Circuit Court of Appeals might give the new body power to oust all Elks lodges not joining it. Many letters and telegrams from various sections of the country were read expressing approval and co-operation with the new movement. Among them was one from Ben J. Davis, of Atlanta.

Mr. Townsend further stated that he could not block the street to traffic in the front as he had the one in the back closed, so that the students could go safely over to the annex building. The City ordinance forbids two parallel streets to be closed at the same time. Two days later the storm seemed to abate and Mr. Townsend had the matter well in hand. The students were demanding their privileges in a more orderly manner. The following letter was sent to the student body to sign: "We the undersigned do not approve of the way we went about to get the privileges that we want, and promise to go about it in a more orderly way." This letter sas signed by over a thousand students, about five hundred refused to sign. The students sent a petition to the office, stating that they desired to occupy the sidewalks in front of the building and patronize Chiles store. Many of the girls claim that the principal refused to give them passes to go home, because he didn't think they knew how to use them. Several students were suspended. Among them were Arnold Tinsley, Joseph Trent, and Pete Woolfolk. All were taken back except Weldon Moon. It is understood that the pupils have presented their petition in orderly and regular form and that the principal has the matter under advisement. The following girls were selected by the Principal to bring the stu- dents' grievances to him: Misses Thelma Jones, Lillian Mitchell, Elaine Gilpin, Pearl Robinson, Octavia Jackson, Laura Westray, Lucille Williams, Dorothy Scott.

CHURCHMAN: “You are what do you think of him as a pas tor?” AMPLIFIER: “I find that hi strength as a true leader is admir- ‘able. The manner in which he leads is desirable. He is on the alert. His ability and style as a minister of the gospel is resourceful; his mastery of Scriptural Texts is wonderful; his talks are interesting; his sermonic masterpieces are awakening, capti yating, convincing, uplifting, enjoy- able and didactic; his delivery is great; his pulpit etiquette is com- mendable; his memory is retentive; and he is spiritually forceful a5 well as logical. Yea, you people at Second Baptist Church have a great leader one of the best in the State. One who has a cbureh-program worthwhile; one who believes in accomplishments; fone who takes the lead in things up- lifting and elevating. Truly he (Dr. Hill), is a genuine leader—worthy of you ‘following. But some of your Sisters and brethren at Second Bap- tist. Church, (I feel), don’t realize what a great pastor you have to lead you. You have a splendid pastor, magnificient church, ete., but I am unable to see how you are going to iaise $15,000.00 by December 7, 1930. No, you all will not be able to vaise that amount of money.

Now you members at Second Baptist Chureh resurrect $15,000.00 by De- cember 7, 1930 and I will believe that your church and people are a- mong the greatest in the State of Virginia.” CHURCHMAN: “Second Baptist Chureh stands on par with any chureh in the city. That we have lawyers, doctors, bankers, realtors, business men and women, printers, insurance rankers, music teachers, stenographers and others who are well-to-do. in civie and financial af- fairs members of our church.

Churchman, don’t think Lam a pessimist and wish to see your church fail to raise the sum of money you are rallying for by the 7th of December, but I have some knowledge of the Bonton- Chureh-Members. They do not pay in the church the money they should pay. But the working class of people who toil hard the year round for Ineager living; narrowly can make ends meet, work in the hot and cold weather to support their church. Now, if those members of your church would be fair to their church it would be very easy to raise the $15,000.00 and all would be happy.” CHURCHMAN: “Ampie, do_yoa think we ought, to raise that much money anyway?” AMPLIFIER: “Yes, I certainly do; and those bonton members who are in good circumstances, ought to GO DOWN IN THEIR POCKETS and bring out that TENTH, which the Lord specifically requires of every- body to give to the church. They have it, and should give it, especially that TENTH He requires of all of us to give to the church.

After being beaten the Prince was taktn to the door steps of the Supt. of Schools, A. L. Woodsor whom it’is alleged was responsible for the Prince speaking at the white schools, The Prince was _ throwr rudely on the steps of the Supt. o! Schools where he was told to leave the community and never return to Herndon. The Prince left. the com mnuity that night, friends driving him to Alexandric. Getwayo is wellknown in the Val- ley of Virginia, He lived in Staunton several months lecturing, preaching and cooking. While here he changed his faith from Episcopatian to Bap- tist. He became a member ‘of Mt. Zion Baptist Church, pastored by the Rev. E. D. McCreary. While here spoke at all of the white schools which included the exclusive white female institutions of the city, Get- wayo claims to also be a high Mason. While in this city he gave a public meeting for the benefit of the Ma- sonic affaliations of the city, which was well attended. The people of Staunton gave lit- te credence to the story of the Prince, eepsaillelee t et acta etactoa Prince, especially the Colored popu- lation it is related, He told many of the people that he was a. doctor, Doth medical and hoodoo, and it reported that he sold much of his “hoodoo” Rheumatism medicine to the guil- ‘able public of Augusta Conuty. The ‘Prince was of course also a preach- er and held meetings at Craigsville Waynesboro and other churches of the city. He hod his wife with him during his stay in Staunton and al- So his son who was a bootblack at she Beverley Hotel. The Prince's wise was @ portly brown skin _wo- man whose speech sounded more “Georgia” than Africian. She was certainly an American. Getwayo claimed to have been an Oxford graduate and a classmate of the Triuce of Wales at the time, and wo is now King George V of Bng- land. Prince Buliano Getwayo claim- de to have been seventy years old, and the son of the Zulu Chief, Chee- ka. His youth was supposed to have been preserved by acertain medicine he sold. The Prince seemed to have been many years the elder of his wtie and his son looked to be about 10 years old. The Prince claimed to have held severaldegrees when he lived in Staunton. His rheu- natism medicine whith he manufac- ‘tured was supposed to be the “Cat's ‘hind hip” ‘The Prince after leaving here spent some time in Charlottesville, it is not known here where he now yesides. He claims to be getting money to return to his homeland to work with his people. He carried credentials from the English embas- sy in Washington establishing his identity.

No, Churchman, you all will not raise $15,000.00" by December 7th. Of course if Fifth Street Chureh, Sixth Mount Zion, Mosby Memorial, or Moore Street Baptist Churches were launching out for that amount of money they would get it. Why? Be- cause those churches have the GIV- ING SPIRIT. Your people do lots of big talking and ballyhooing.” CHURCHMAN: “Ampie, I am sur- prised at you—you don't know what you are talking about. There is not a church in Richmond has raised more money than we have raised. I don’t Know of a single church here has put on a RALLY for as large a SUM as we at Second Baptist Church. Sun- day, December 7, 1980, when our pastor, Rev. Hill, announces the sum raised, we eertainly want you to be present. We have members in our chureh who really give money, and they give it willingly, not merely Zor a show. We have some members who can give hundreds of dollars alone. Our tally has been on ever_since July, and we expect to get $15,000.- 00 by December 7, 1930.” AMPLIFIER: “I expect you have your expectation RAISED TOO HIGH; I just can’t see how you are going to get Fifteen Thousand Dol- lars by December 7th; unless those of your church who are better pre- pared than you, go down in their pockets and bring out some of those old RUSTY DOLLARS and lay them down on the TABLE. If they fail to do s0, they will be robbing God.” AMPLIFIER: “How many _mem- bers do you have on your church roll; about four hundred?” MRS. CHURCHMAN: “You hush Amplifier, I see that_you know as much about Second Baptist Church as a ‘Jack Rabbit’ knows about theo- logy. We have more than a thousand members. And we want to let you kn ow. that they are NOT DEAD LIMBS hanging on.Surely we are g0- ing to,raise $15,000.00 by December 7, 1980.

A., expressed his admiration for the life and ser- vice of the dead leader, pointing out his quiet devotion to his work, his dislike of fulsome praise, and his ever-present chal- Tenge to carry on, Mr. Fisher said, “Thad the highest regard for Dr. Phenix, as I knew him here, first of all’ because of his Christian character, which impressed _me from the start, ‘There seemed to be no question in his own mind with respect to the eternal veri- ties concerning God and His uni- verse.” Dr J.ames Hardy Dillard, of Charlottesville, Va., president of the Jeanes and Slater Funds, re- called Dr. Phénix's wide grasp of educational problems and especial- ly his great work in fostering the development of rural education. Dr, Dillard said that Hampton's late president had three main characteristics, not. too common ‘among leaders: trucheartedness, simplicity and genuine unselfish- ness, He added, “Dr. Phenix is a man whose memory will live _and grow. The more we shall think of him, the more we shall realize the value of his influence upon the lives of hundreds and thousands who during his long service have passed this way.” ‘The Institute chaplain then of- fered prayer. After the Quartet had sung “In Bright Mansions Above,” the benediction was_pro- nounced by Dr. James E. Gregg of Waterbury, Conn., former prin- cipal of the Institute. While che flowers, sent from all sections of the country and by all classes of people were being carried out of the church by the students, the choir sang “Walk Together, Chil- dren.” ‘The school band, conducted by William M. Tessman, led the fu- neral procession to the Institute Cemetery, while the battalion of school cadets comprised the’ escort. After a brie feervice at the grave the impressive ceremony closed with the sounding of taps which was echoed by another bugler in the distance. Members of the family accom- panying Mrs, Phenix were her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Speneer Phe- nix and two children; a nephew, Mr. Paul Phenix; and Dr. Ste- phens of Brooklyn, N.

Her son, Spencer Phenix of New York,who has been in Santa Domingo on a government finan- cial mission, was not able to reach Hampton until th eend of the week. ‘The active pall bearers were the following students: Joseph Bald- win, Edward Well, Theester Cole- man, Granwell Edicks, Harold Gates, Robert MeNicholas, Edward Scales and Maxwell Thomas. ‘The honorary pall bearers were the Trustees, the members of the ‘Administrative Board, and the members of the Executive Coun- cil. ‘The ushers were Robert Atkin- con, E.

TOUCHES ON RICHMOND SEG- REGATION AND PRIMARY CASES Mr. Pickens in explaining the course pursued by Judge Parker in rendering his decision in the Rich- mond segregation case stated that Judge Parker's decision was based fon precedents set by the decisions handed down in the Louisville and Louisiana cases by the United States Supreme Court. He said that Judge Parker did the right thing, that was all. That the Primary case, had it been appesled to the Supreme Court ‘and the decision rendered by Judge Groner been upheld, it would have set a precedent that would have had legal effect in every state in the ‘union, was the reason advanced by him for the failure of the party of- ficlals here to carry the case further.

Devotional exercises were in charge of Rev. B. C. Whitfield and Rev. B, M. Morris. Captain John Purvis opened for the Blues by stating that he and his workers were not concerned about making a great show in the begin ning of this drive, but they would an nihilate their enemy in the last stage of the conflict. He spoke of the high qualities of the order and urged hi workers to do all they can to make the drive a success. Captain Elizabeth Clark spoke for the Reds. The burden of her mes- sage was an appeal for some good stiff opposition from her opponents sc she and her valiant workers could ex- ert themselves in this campaign. Rey. B. C. Whitfield, in a very be- fitting address, presented Rev. R. K. D. Garrett, the principle speaker of the evening. The wonderful discourse of the eminent divine was built around the thought of racial co-oper- ation. It is needless to say that he gave his audience some very sane and timely advice. Every one present ex- pressed his appreciation for this ad- dress. : ‘The most exciting moments of these exercises were doing the tally- ing of reports by the Reds and Blues. At one time it appeared that the Blues were coming out ahead, but the final count showed the Reds were masters of the situation with con- siderable lead over the Blues.

SPORT NEWS Union Defeats Lincoln By A Score Of 2 To 0 From Start, Blocked Kick Provides Safety Score---Maxey Robinson, Tarzan, Martin, Armstead Excel For Union Not since the hectic days of the inimitable Jazz Byrd of Lincoln and the diminutive Jimmy Shields of Union, has the city of Norfolk witnessed such a clash in football between two apparently evenly matched teams. It was in 1926 when these two schools played against one another in that memorable League Park, battling for four quarters to a scoreless tie. History nearly repeated itself Saturday but the inevitable break that comes once in every closely fought football game, thwarted the efforts of Father Time to du 1937 Head Coach Hucles plicate itself. It was in the fourth quarter, with Lincoln within the shadow of her goal posts. Harmon dropped back to punt out of danger. As the ball was snapped back, Bernard Smith, last year's varsity Captain, and Maxey Robinson, Union's fleet halfback, rushed at the kicker with speed of a bullet and successfully blocked the kick, the ball rolling behind Lincoln's goal posts. Tarzan Martin, Union's strong man who had been playing a wonderful game for Union leaped through the air like a flying Whippet and snuggled the ball safely in his arms bringing to Union its only score of the game. In the 1st quarter Lincoln at the receiving the kickoff marched the ball to Union's 27 yard line where a fifteen yard penalty was inflicted upon Union. Lincoln was unable to make the necessary yardage and the ball was given to Union who immediately kicked out of danger. From this time on the ball seasaved back and forth, with the play being mostly in Lincoln territory. Union marched the ball to Lincoln's five yard stripe but the keen eye of Retere Gibson once again caught an infraction of the rules and Union was penalized another 15 yards. Union failed to make the necessary ten and Lincoln was given the ball. At the end of the 1st half the ball was in Lincoln's possession in midfield. The second half was replete with thrills, contributed by both teams. In the fourth quarter Lamar of Lincoln ran the ball out of his danger zone for a twenty-eight yard run before he dazed Tarsan Martin of Union contributed the nearest tackling job of the day when he cut down two of Lincoln's interference men and then regained his feet to actually sling the Lincoln man carrying the ball to the ground amidst the plaudits of the spectators. Armstead a Union halback contributed some classy interference for Union and intercepted one of Lincoln's forward passes. Herman Washington, Union's galloping half back, plunged thru center for a lengthy run and eluded all of Lincoln's tacklers with the exception of the safety man who brought him to earth with a sizzling tackle. Union was penalized six times for 15 yard penalties and five times for five yard penalties making a total of 115 yards. Lincoln was penalized one 15 yard penalty and one five yard penalty. Union out-played Lincoln throuout the game and those present felt that the score would have been different had there not have been so many penalties. Next week Union clashes with the boys from Morgan of Baltimore who defeated the A. and T. Bulldogs this past week. "Thunderbolt Gaines," Hampton For the first time in the history of Colored Intercollegiate Association football, "Thunderbolt" Gaines, of Hampton Institute, and "Dynamite" Kane, of Lincoln University, the All-American colored tackles of 1929, and widely hailed as two of the best tackles playing college football to-day, will measure their strength against each other on the gridiron. The two famous tackles will clash in the line when Hampton and Lincoln play at the Yankee Stadium in New York on November 1, in the feature game of the season for both institutions. Sam Gaines is well known in Metropolitan football circles. He was paying his second year as All-American colored tackle when Hampton met Lincoln at the Polo Grounds last year, and it was at that time that the dynamic energy and irresistible onslaughts of the 200-pound tackle earned him the soubriquet of "Thunderbolt", pinned on him by the press. 1960 TWO GREAT HALFBACKS—Hampton Institute's Star halfbacks—Edgar "Beau" Guess (at left) and Ted Briggs, punter and passer extraordinary—who will do their stuff in the battle against Lincoln University at the Yankee Stadium in New York on November 1.

Oct. 4.—With two victories already tucked under their belts as a result of a 39-0 win over Fort Benning and a 13-7 win over Coach Braggs rejuvenated Floridians, the athletic management of Alabama State Teachers College was concentrating all efforts on the opening home game for the Hornets, that is to be played in Cramton bowl under the arches on Friday October 17, with Alabama A. & M. This contest is the first of four big games being staged by the teachers, which occasion, include the clash with Clark November 11, the contest with Wilberforce on November 5 and the annual Alabama State-Tuskegee tilt on November 22. The interest in the A. & M. go is high in that it is a night affair and that the Engineers come with revenge in their hearts for the two or three touchdown victory that the teachers gained over them last season. The Engineers always pack plenty power and promise to give their sister school a stiff contest. Columbus Georgia will again be the scene of the southwestern interstate grid classic on Armistice day between the Hornets and Clark University. This holiday affair was started last year in the municipal stadium in Columbus, where it will again be played this time. The Hornet coaches are priming hard for this effort in that it is rumored that Clark has completely changed her style of attack with the acquisition of Chief Aiken, who is remembered a longtime mentor of the Atlanta University. In 1928 Alabama State promoted the first colored football game in the municipal stadium at Birmingham with Talladega and 1929 saw the Langston University wonder team there in action with the Staters. This time State brings a game of nationwide proportion there, with Wilberforce University of Xenia Ohio as their opponent. Alabama State and Wilberforce University are pleasant relations, each other this year as a team of four basketball games between the two institutions, with two victories going to the teachers and two to the Ohioans. The two teams take this game as the occasion to break the deadlock as regards athletic competition between the two schools. Acute significance is also attached to this game in that it follows by two weeks Wilberforce game with another Alabama rival at Chicago when she meets Tuskegee. Of course all fans are anxiously awaiting the Alabama-Tuskegee tilt in Cramton bowl on November 22. We take the liberty to characterize it as the "Army-Navy game of the south" because of the intense interest manifested in it. This year marks the seventh successive one and it promises to outdo all others in interest and attendance. Fisk "Buldogs" In 25 To 0 Win Over Kentucky State Nashville. Tenn. Oct. 11, 1990 The Fisk University bulldogs opened their official grid season here this afternoon by completely romping over a game band of warriors from Kentucky State by a decisive score of 25 to 0. The first half was a very slow affair with both teams see-sawing up and down the field but the closing minutes led to a 6-0 score in the bulldogs' favor. Several passes were completion. Both teams displaying a wonderful defense with much raggedness in offensive work. The Half ended with Fisk scoring via a pass from Yost to Hall good for fifteen yards, successive three yards runs by Wiggins and Bass, with Cox plunging over center six yards for the score. Yost failed to kick goal. Coach Johnson was very lenient in his substitutions sending almost three different elevenes against the Staters, during the four periods of play. Many rookies proved themselves in many departments. W. Slaughter, shifted from the backfield to tackle, was a terror--so was Davidson, late of Louisville High fame. Ballard, reliable as ever at center and still spicy with Pierce and Wingo, two well knowns at tackle. The Kentuckians were no outstanding match for the bulldogs, however, each displayed poor form and a lack of seasoning. Fisk, Bass, Hall, W. Slaughter, Hunter, Miller, Finley, Saunders, Dunner, Fields, Alexander, Brown, Martin, Fisher, Morton. Kentucky State, Robinson, Higgins, Simpson, Campbell, Martin, Lawson, Dodson, Thurston, Hoke.

S. Render Thousands of football fans from many sections of the country will maneuver to Nashville Saturday, October 18, to witness the third of a heart-gripping series of grid encounters between the Fisk University bulldogs and the powerful Wilberforce eleven. This sectional affair from all points of interest will be one of the most thrilling and extravagantly sponsored of the season. In 1928 Fisk held the Ohioans to 0-0 tie. But force turned the tide last season, nosing out the bulldogs in the closing minutes of play by scoring two touchdowns to overcome a 7-0 lead, final score was 12-7. The Ohioans touted as one of the best teams in the country, with an amazing record of many years back, will enter the game much the favorite; from all indications, as the fans see it. But the same hopefulness was in the hearts of many ardent fans when the up-state boys visited "back home" two seasons ago. Coach Johnson will rely upon the strategy of his seasoned vets to avenge themselves for last year's humiliation. ATTY. J. R. POLLARD TO SPEAK AT MT. OLIVE BAPTIST CHURCH Hear Lawyer J. R.

She was twenty-five when she ran away from her home. in Virginia and drifted to Missouri, something like a wild duck that followed the sky to a warmer climate, not in -he way of weather, but in the way of amorous adventure. Sogending two years in St. Louis gave her a crust that was hard to penetrate, a world- ly air that was fascinating. Se sang and danced*and made merry without a thought of tomorrow, and there were times when her moods shanged and she discussed Plato, Homer, and the play she loved so well. Othello. She possessed an ability to stimulete educated minds. But she sang boisterous songs beside an overworked auto- matic piano, and a while later in the same evening she sang selec- tions from grand opera, consequent- ly she kept everyone guessing as to her real character. Few women in this world have been born with such extraordinary gifts. Jack Furgerson wanted to know where she had acquired the ability to perform so many tasks so well, and because she was interested in the man, she told him. en had met “Mm a nicely ap- ted restaurant where the promi- nent colored people of the city fre- ‘quented. Ola had not seen Furger- son before, and if ne had seen her he could not remember where it “was. The simple fact that the “fashionable restaurant was crowded with patrons, leaving only one empty chair at a table—the table ‘Furgerson occupied—had made their meeting possible. He rose gallant- ty and invited her to be seated. She did not decline.

It must have been.a case of love at first sight for both parties. Sitting there stylishly gowned in dark velvet, with an expensive fan decorated with scintillating gems, their massive chairs partly con- cealed by condescending palms, they exchanged inconsequential greet- ings and then became serious. Jack Furgerson accompanied her home. Ola, at that time lived in an exclusive neighborhood in an ornate apartment that was richly furnish- ed with deep rugs, brightly polished fixtures, subdued lights and enor- mous green tile fireplaces. One could always depend upon Ola to have access to things like that apartment as well as hidden re- sources. And she captivated Furgerson, made a serf of him, kept him fasci- nated unti! he escaped from under her spell and began to thrust his own-domineering personality for- ward. “You've got to do what I tell you,” he declared once. “I’m tired of lis- tening to your baby prattle.” By this time the chic and demure little Ola was helpless to resist him, her heart having long ago in- terfered desperately with what plans had been in her mind. “What do you wish of me, Jack?” she asked. He sat in silence for a moment. It was in December and the fire on the grate was comforting, so he sat there with his thin legs crossed. He was tall, a broad-shouldered young man, quite good-looking. “{'m in a little trouble,” he pre- faced, having decided to make a clean breast of everything. “I shot a policeman last night and I'm afraid they'll get my number if we stay here any longer. . . .

Stories of the past are known to be given in the growth-rings of trees, but until recently the code was so well guarded that it could not easily be deciphered. Scientists working on the problem have now been able to check against their records as found in the trees, the records of history, and thus they are able to obtain an accurate knowledge as to the unique language of the trees. Dr. Andrew E. Douglass, of the University of Arizona, made a long and painstaking study of twenty-five great yellow pines which grew in the arid region of northern Arizona. This species proved to be particularly suitable to his purpose, for in its annual rings the soft, rapidly-growing, white tissues of spring are sharply distinguished from the hard, reddish layers formed later in the year, when conditions are less favorable and cells become lean and emaciated. After carefully measuring the thickness of every ring in the trees, making some 10,000 measurements in doing so, and fixing their dates, he examined his data in the light of the rainfall records available for the locality.

ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—October 18, 1930 tween ring growth and rainfall was striking. Dr. Douglass also found evidence that all the trees had responded to the climatic peculiarities of given years in essentially the same manner. That is to say, the rings of the date of 1851 were, in all the trees examined, unusually narrow while those formed in 1868 and again in 1898 were unusually broad. Moreover, the period, 1879-1884, as recorded in the Arizona pines, was indicated by a group of rings so narrow that it was easy to pick them out on old stumps where no measurements had been taken. Indeed, striking confirmation of the readiness with which identification can be made was had in the case of one stump which had been cut many years. By locating this particular group of narrow rings on it, which he easily did, Dr. Douglass was able to designate the year when the tree was felled, a date which was verified by the owner of the land who remembered the circumstances. Other scientists have studied the tree rings of the giant California redwoods. At times it is believed that these trees grew widely throughout the United States, but now there are only a few of them in a single section of the West. Dr. Ellsworth Huntington, of Yale University, counted the rings of these great Sequoias. He examined the rings in more than 450 trees, rings in the stumps of 451 trees whose dates of cutting were known. Some of the trees were only a few hundred years old when felled. Nearly a hundred were close to two thousand years of age. Three had lived more than three thousand years, while the rings of the oldest registered 3.210 years. In commenting on the antiquity of these venerable inhabitants of the past, Dr. Huntington says: "Huge as the Sequoias are, their size is scarcely so wonderful as their age. A tree that has lived five hundred years is still in its early youth; one that has rounded out one thousand summers and winters is only in full maturity; and old age, the three score years An Undying Love Made Her a Prisoner Continued from Page One She nodded at his interrogation. And they got out. Next we find them in a small northwest Missouri village where Furgerson had bought out a restaurant, one of those small things thick with tobacco smoke and sometimes whiskey fumes. Ola, with her piquant beauty, at the cash register, made a hit with the masculine customers. But this type of thing couldn't go on forever, and the bomb broke when the village sheriff, Henry Hudson, started in to wrest something besides promises and engaging smiles from Ola. The town was for the most part colored, and there were but few white people. Hudson was a good looking colored man, with a brave heart, neat in attire and a good conversationalist. Ola knew Jack was watching him, knew he was jealous, and wondered what she ought to do. She eventually decided to request Hudson to leave her alone. However, F.ugerson was ignorant of the true situation and hired a pair of henchmen to beat up the officer. The plot was laid in the gambling parlors above the restaurant. Ola must have looked through one of those peepholes in the door at the head of the stairs, for when the job had been done, she stole to the tree, walking over the frozen road, where Hudson was tied and cut the ropes. It was a bitter cold night, with a deep layer of snow and huge drifts. The sheriff might have frozen to death if Ola hadn't rescued him. "I've saved you," she said, "and now I want you to do something for me. Leave this town. They've got you tagged and your life's in danger." She returned to the restaurant and was confronted by the infuriated Furgerson. "I've heard about your setting Hudson free because you love him," he snarled, "so come across with the truth. Did you tell and ten of the Sequoias, does not come for seventeen or eighteen centuries. "In the days of the Trojan War and of the exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt, this oldest tree (the one measured) was a sturdy sapling with stiff, prickly foliage like that of a cedar, but far more compressed. By the time of Marathon the trees had lost the hard, sharp lines of youth and were thoroughly mature." A Swedish scientist, Dr. Ernest Antevs, of the University of Stockholm, also counted the rings on many of the ancient trees and by different methods found that the work of the first scientists was correct. These trees all showed the effects of weather changes. Sun spots, dry periods, wet weather, and other changes were all clearly indicated in the rings of the trees. Particularly the eleven and one-half yearly sun spot activity was evident, due to the changes of the weather and storms. When Babies CRY Babies will cry, often for no apparent reason.

He said that he didn't believe her. "You're in love with that guy," he expostulated, "and I'm going to fix you!" She did not protest when he seized her roughly and pulled her up the back steps. She was too much in love with him to protest against anything he did. Perhaps Ola had waited too long to fall in love, then again maybe it was her nature never to lose her love for the first man to win it. They speak of dogs being one-man dogs. So she must have been a one-man woman. Her blood chilled when she caught a fleeting glimpse of his purpose. But she did not cry out. Took it calmly, with a hard line for a mouth, and wide fearless oyes. When he thrown her upon the bed and crossed to the door, she uttered a few simple words: "I don't know why you're doing this, Jack. This room is full of rats and bleakness. It's no place for a woman. Please don't make me spend the night here." He laughed, then croaked like an enormous bullfrog. "Spend the night here. Huh. You're going to stay a year!" After that, he went out and slammed the door. For 365 days Ola stayed in that room—a prisoner of love, suffering alone, almost stark mad. There is no telling how long it would have gone on had not Furgerson been shot and killed in a dice game. They buried him before they found Ola up there in her dungeon, and she didn't know anything about his death. True he had trusted no Continued on Page Seven BRONCHITIS—Or Deep-Seated Chest Colds.

WHITE LAUGHTER Carl's Manliness Creates a Stir Among Plantation Beauties and They Compete for His Favor INSTALLMENT SEVEN Toto regarded him speculatively. Then she moved a little closer to him. Hotshot got up yawning. "Guess I'll mosey on out in th' fiel's," he said, giving Carl a sly look. "Sally put Bud out yestiddy, and he done lef' here. Reckon Sally'll be lookin' f'me. See you later." He strode off whistling gayly, a wide grin on his brown face. "You musn't be careless of Bogo," Toto warned Carl. "He's one of these treacherous, blue-gumed guys. An' he's big enough to break you in pieces, honey." Carl thrilled at her use of endearment to him. "I'm not careless of him," he explained. "I'm just not afraid of him." Then he told her of his trouble with the man a few nights previously, and how Hotshot had saved him. Toto smiled appreciatively. Then her voice became warm and caressing. "I've got to go now, Carl," she cooed. "But I'm glad I've met you." Carl had removed his hat, and his hair swept down over his brow in a mass of black curls. Toto's hand pushed the recalcitrant locks back into place gently. She rose sinuously to her feet preparatory to moving away. Carl sprang up beside her. "But, won't I—that is, can't I see you again?" he begged boyishly. Toto's eyes narrowed with some unexplained emotion, as they traveled over the well-knit figure of the youth. "Maybe, honey," she suggested, "you won't want tknow a woman like me?" Carl laughed scornfully. "Why?" he demanded. "I can't think of any reason why I shouldn't be happy—very happy to know you." Toto's eyes lighted with quick hope, then she sighed deeply. "You are sayin' a lot when you say that, Carl," she warned. "I still say," Carl insisted. "And I do want to see you again—soon." The throaty laughter of the woman rang out, a little bitterly. "When these apes on this place get through tellin' you about me you'll wish you'd never seen me," she cried. "If you had ever been in this country much you'd have heard of me already. Why, chile, I'm known almost everywhere . . . ." "All I know is that you're beautiful." Carl told her, deeply moved. "And all I care about is that—you are you!" He had almost said, "I love you!" The impulse shook him to the roots of his being. "I'll be seein' you," Toto called back to him, as she moved gracefully away toward the woods. Carl took a few hasty steps after her. "Please don't think I'm fresh," he begged as he stood at her side again, "but I—don't want you to go away without telling me that I'll see you again." "Oh, you will," the woman assured him enigmatically. "Don't worry about that." "But when?" he insisted. "Time enough, honey," she told him, a trace of firmness tinging her voice. "Jus' take your time." She faced him, the lovely lines of her dark face holding a hint of pain. "I like you Carl," she told him frankly, "but there are reasons . . . you'll jus' have to believe in me a while . . . a little while. That's all I can tell you now. You'd better go back to th' wagon now because Elmira is waiting for her cotton to be weighed. Is she your woman—I mean, your girl? She looks like she'd like to kill me!" Before Carl could answer the woman moved away, her deep-throated laughter floating back to him like the call of a bird. Uncertainly he made his way back to the wagon. "Toto don' lose no time a-tall," Elmira muttered ostensibly to herself, but loud enough for the weigher to hear. She came close to him, laying her hand on his arm. "You won' think bad of me if I tells you sompin', Mistah Carl?" she asked, her eyes pleadingly on him.

Carl's first urge was to tell the girl to mind her own business, but the evident sincerity with which she spoke caused him to merely reply, "Why, Elmira, what makes you think I care whether she is a bad woman or not?" The girl misunderstood. "I know you fell for her. They all do. But I don' want her to get her claws inter you case—case I likes you," she added appealingly, "myself." "What about Peco?"

"Better hang on to him, so far as I'm concerned," Carl told her with calculated frankness. "Maybe you changes yo' min' some o' these days," Elmira predicted as she walked slowly back into the field. II. That night Hotshot again ambled up the path to Carl's cabin. It was shortly after dusk, and the moonless sky was sprinkled with thousands of stars. As he walked the little man sang: "My gal's got teeth like a lighthouse on th' sea; My gal's got teeth like a lighthouse on th' sea, An' when she smiles She throw them lights on me. . . ." He greeted Carl with a significant smile. "What cha say, ole hot stuff?" "Why hot stuff?" Carl asked, raising his head from his improvised desk upon which the Colonel's account books were opened. "The fastes' woman in New O'leans done made a play f' you, thus why," his friend chortled. Carl grinned, pleased in spite of himself. "Aw, she didn't make a play for me," he denied. "We just talked a while." "Talked, my foot! 'Bout everybody in the feel' knows that Miss Tote has done put her sign on you!" "Woll, I hope she has." Carl said 3 slowly. "I think she's gorgeous—beautiful—lovely!" "Well, we all knows that," Hotshot admitted drily. "Howsumever, it t'aint her looks—" he halted significantly. "What do you mean?" Carl asked quickly. "You won' get mad at me?" Hotshot demanded. "Of course not." "Well, they all say that this yere Toto makes her money by playing men—you know what I mean." "Well?" Carl said the one word quietly. Hotshot seemed taken aback. He had expected his friend to exclaim in horror "Don' thatmek no difference to you? You bin so dicky'roun here 'bout th' gals I thought sho' you sho' wouldn't have no truck with a—" "Don't say that word!" Carl cried sharply. Then he smiled. "What she is makes no difference to me at all, Hotshot," he explained. "And anyway, I won't be here very long, so what difference can what she is make to me?" The little man shook his head as though puzzled. "For a boy with so much schoolin,'" he muttered slowly, and with more seriousness than Carl had ever seen him display before, "you ain't got much sense nohow." "Meaning what?" Carl asked. "Well, when a woman looks at you like that one done today, and you look like a sick calf back at her, then sompin's sho' due to happen." "How did she look at me, Hotshot?" "She look at you like a mamma look at her boy chillen," Hotshot explained. Carl laughed. "Then her love would seem to be motherly," he scoffed. Hotshot shook his head vigorously. "Nawsuh!" he denied. "When a woman look at you like that, she mean business, I knows, boy." "You're pipe-dreaming," Carl told him, while deep within himself he was glad, because he put great faith in his friend's understanding of the other sex. "Well, enyways," Hotshot observed drily, "I bet you a millyun bucks you ain't leavin' here as quick as you figgers." "I'll take that bet," Carl accepted with a laugh. "Have you heard f'm your banker friend yit?" Hotshot inquired. Carl shook his head ruefully. "I guess he's forgotten me or something. I haven't had a line from him." He brightened. "But I have had a couple of letters from my girl in Chicago." "What she sayin'?" Hotshot asked interestedly. "Oh, nothing much. Just says she hopes I'll get out of this all right and that I'll hurry back to Chicago. I told her in one of my letters that she needn't worry about my falling for any of the girls on this plantation. But if I don't hurry up and get away from here,—I'm afraid I will fall for Toto." "You will nothin'!" Hotshot snorted. "You done fell for her like a ton o' brick." III Later that night Carl sat outside of his cabin half dreaming in the fragrant darkness. The moon was up, and through the black tracery of the branches it cast golden shafts of radiance which formed lacy patterns on the ground. It was mid-summer and all of the growing things of the earth gave forth their magic odors in rich profusion. The Spell Grows From the direction of the scronchin' grounds drifted the muted throb of the banjos, and the rhythmic harmonies of velvet-voiced singers. The glorious beauty of the night and the barbaric beat of the far away music made a poignant ache in Carl's heart. He thought with a sharp longing of the strange woman he had met that day, and had he known where he could have found her he would have gone to her at once. Sighing, he arose and entered the house, to lie wide-eyed on his narrow bed. Now he thought only of Toto, not at all of the cool Antoinette—and Chicago. He tried to tell himself that he must not lose sight of his final objective, even for a minute, but it did no good. The spell of Barre plantation and grey-eyed enchantress seemed to be tightening around him with an inexerable certitude. Continued on Page Five SENTIMENT AND SOCKS-By James A. Garner A FIGHTING STORY OF COURAGE AND AMBITION SUPERIOR PRODUCTS FOR SUPERIOR PEOPLE (CONTINUED FROM LAST WEEK) Young Larkins was on his toes and backing away while he just allowed his glove to come in contact with the face of Dorsey. It is a little too slow to put it that way: Dorsey was aggressively after his man every second of the first round. Larkins was keeping just out of range and applying his fast snapping left to the face constantly. Just the leather of the glove landed and until today I don't believe a hair inside the glove was disturbed by these featherweight jabs. They just landed as would almost a light tap. Several times Dorsey brushed it aside with his left or right, but it was right back in position again and doing its dusting as it had begun to do. When the bell rang for the end of the round, I was glad, for I had walked around that ring so much that I was beginning to get dizzy. At the sound of the gong, Young Larkins grinned at Dorsey and went coolly to his corner. Dorsey on the other hand, gave him a mean glance and, I believe, would have struck him then, had I not waved him to his corner. You have heard a crowd yell when its favorite wins; you have heard the mad surge of the sea on a rocky coast; but you have never heard unless you were there—the equal in noisy ovation given the men as they returned to their corners. The unprejudiced blood of the sporting men realized then that a pair of blacks were giving them the best in boxing that many had ever seen or hoped to see. They realized then that Gans was tutoring a man to fill his shoes as lightweight champion of the world. And above all they were conscious of the fact that Al had given them their money's worth in a semi-final even if the main bout should prove to be a fizzle. The gong! Dorsey was upon Larkins before the lad could get out of his corner. Two stinging rights—one to the body and one to the head sent the young fellow to cover. And such a cover it was! It did not allow a glove to land on his body or head until he had successfully worked close enough to clinch. It was Johnnie who did the tying up this time. He held Henry close and let fly with his right a series of blows that sounded as if he were punching a bag. All of the blows landed on Dorsey's head and body and he in return sent a smash to the kid's kidneys that could be heard all over the stadium. It must have hurt the lad some for he immediately closed in and held on like a drowning man. They were parted and then Dorsey began to hammer away like a mad man. Rights and lefts, hooks and jabs, jolts and uppercuts. But there was Larkins grinning at him from behind battered arms that received the efforts of his assault. Infuriated, Dorsey set himself to greater efforts, but what was the use? Larkins just straightened up and began to smear that nasty left across his face as he had done in the previous round. The boy had recovered and was just as fast with that left as he had been before he received that smash over the kidneys. That left baffled Dorsey. It was doing him no injury, but just seemed to stay over his eyes like a soft cloth that blurred one's vision. Until now Dorsey had landed but few blows, but each was a crusher. Johnnie, on the other hand, had simply "peppered" him with light left tabs and right hooks that would not Don't say ASPIRIN ~ask for St. Joseph's Pure ASPIRIN as Pure as money can buy 10 ONE POINT St. Joseph's 10¢ Pure ASPIRIN 8-GRAIN TABLET 12 tablets--10g 38 tablets--25g 100 tablets--60g have harmed a baby.

I merely have to say that the expected did not happen and of the three men in the ring at the sound of the final gong, I was the most exhausted. In fact, I was almost too fatigued to raise the hand of young Larkins. Johnnie was a little particular how I raised his hand. I wondered why, but when I saw the welts and bruises, I was in sympathy with him. His left arm was lumpy and through the brown the red of his blood showed. Dorsey on the other hand, did not have a scratch, his eyes just ran water from the rubbing they had received. After this bout a certain sorrow befell the sporting world. Gans died. Hereford, his manager, wept as if he had lost his dearest relative. And while others who knew him might not have given evidence of their feelings, I am sure that there were none who did not regret the passing of the craftiest general who ever resined a shoe. From afar and near people came to pay their respects to the clay that had been champion of the world as it lay in state in an edifice known as Kings Hill. Gans was dead. Some have felt as badly when a ruler of the land has passed, but, I think, none have felt more broken-hearted than did the sport-loving public when the word of his defeat by the grim reaper was cast abroad. Just what effect the great boxer's death had upon little Johnnie is hard to say or even guess; but it is known in the section of the city where he lived and around the "Y" where it was his custom to train, that he did not show his head, even in those terribly hot days that followed, for several months or more. From what could be learned of his doings during those mourning days, one is led to believe that young Larkins actually became stupefied with grief. He refused food for two days and, it is said, he sat and moped around his home during the entire calamity. (Remember I do not vouch for this part of the story.

ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—October 18, 1930 One of the type of women who gossip across the fence was heard to say that the lad simply went away to skin and bone and was surely going into decline. Now, this is what I learned from Johnnie when he entered the ring for his next fight. The lad had not felt much like fighting after Gans died; it seemed to him as if his fighting spirit had gone, the moment he learned of Gans's death. That seemed more plausible and from the appearance of the boy as he stripped down for action, I am inclined to turn a deaf ear to the rumor of his going into decline. Here is where the fight occurred when Johnnie learned just what Gans meant when he had grunted that the kid would learn some day. This event was nearly two years later, it is true, but the lesson was being taught just as if Gans were there to teach it—and I dare say, more forcibly than the old master would have ever taught it to one so young and content with himself. If the reader will remember it will be recalled that Johnnie had not lost a fight since he first entered the squared circle under the observation of Gans. It will also be remembered that he had no knockouts to his credit. His new trainer must have called his attention to this little fact just before he started him in this bout for the colored featherweight championship of the South with Ray Hawkins as the defender. At once Johnnie began a new style of fighting for his new tutor. Until this bout I had seen the little fellow rock but one man; but on this night that fast left of his shot out as usual but when it landed, it landed hard and Hawkins's head bobbed back like a chicken eating. It was a new Larkins and the crowd was with him—it had never been against him, but tonight that jab was doing the damage that the admirers had longed to see it do. He would jab and get away and take some heavy blows on his arms and shoulders. Twice during the first few rounds the champion's terrible right crashed on his jaw and twice did the knees of Johnnie sag. Twice the crafty youngster slipped into a clinch and saved himself. Truly, this man hanging on was the man who, in the beginning of his career, had set out to beat the man who had beaten Gans. It was plainly evident that there was something wrong. Never before had Larkins been hit as hard; nor could it be recalled when he had to "dog" it. Then too his hitting while harder was not so often as it had been in former bouts; his defense which had been well near perfect, seemed to have faded in part for it was only occasionally that the thin arms would flash a barrier against head and body attack. Yes, there was something wrong about Johnnie. In an instant it was evident that he was doing things he had never done under the instructions of Gans. That big black trainer in his corner was telling the kid what to do, and the kid, like a little fool, was following his instructions and "mixing" it! Mixing with Ray Hawkins, the hardest hitting champion the colored folk of the South had produced! But there were the instructions given to Larkins and the little idiot was swapping blows and nearly getting his head knocked off by that terrific right of Hawkins. Oh! for the right to advise him! For the right to put that second out of the house! Four rounds passed with young Larkins showing us that he was still a boxer and more—he could take punishment as well as give it. Even though most of us were critical of the manner in which his chief second was handling him, none could help but admire him for at least bringing out a quality that Johnnie had not displayed before—courage and an ability to give more punishment than he took. During the minute's rest I formed the conclusion that the bout would go the limit and Larkins would receive the decision on points. So far, he had closed one of the champion's eyes and had opened a gash over the other. And Johnnie was still going fast and strong and showing the defender a few things about boxing: so why should he not go the distance and get the decision? There was a chance for a knockout but the little fellow had never put anyone to sleep yet; would he do it now? Continued Next Week White Laughter By WILLIAM T. SMITH Continued from Page Three He was awakened from his dreamy state by a soft rapping at his door. Startled, he leaped from his bed, then called, "Who is it?" Without answering, a slim figure entered the room softly. He thought it was Toto, and his heart leaped with quick jubilation. With a single bound he sprang across the floor and enfolded the figure in his arms. "Oh, Mistah Carl," Elmira's voice said, "I didn't expect you to—" Carl released the girl instantly. "I'm sorry, Elmira," he said, stepping back. "I didn't know it was you." "Oh!" The one word from the girl seemed weighted with hurt. "I didn't know you was expectin' nobody."

She came closer to Carl. "I think you'd better go," the man told her. His heart was still pounding wildly, but he was keenly disappointed that his visitor was not Toto. "You may be in danger here." "Well, I'm sho' not in no danger from you!" Elmira retorted pointedly. Nettled, Carl cried, "Don't be too sure!" The girl glided up to him, and with a lithe motion, her slim arms went around his neck. Her body was soft and as yielding as cotton, and she pressed against him with fierce strength. The feel of her smooth skin against his face seemed to ignite slow fires in the youth. Almost without his knowing it his hands began stroking her body. "I know'd you was human, baby," Elmira whispered unevenly. "I know'd you'd love me." Slowly her mouth sought his. When their lips met Carl tightened his arms around her. They kissed with wild abandon for a breathless instant. Carl felt his blood boiling within him, and through the misty veil of his emotion the consciousness of what he was doing failed to make an impression. Seemingly without his own volition he lifted the girl from the floor and unsteadily carried her across the floor to his room. She stroked his hair and kissed him wildly, murmuring incoherent love words into his ear. Outside the moon dipped discreetly behind a bank of clouds, and the soft wind grew silent, as though listening. From far away a dog howled thinly, then a deep silence fell, as though the passionate drama in the cabin were being watched by even the trees. Don't have coarse, stubborn, unattractive hair.

W He removed his stocking cap to see if the Keep-It-Down was still holding his black, brushed-back hair in order. He surveyed himself in the mirror, and was pleased. He was extremely happy that morning — happy to be alive and young; happy to be in New York visiting his sister Nadyne, whom he hadn't seen for several years. Willard heart: the clatter of dishes, pots and pans in the kitchen. The aroma of percolating coffee and the smell of sizzling bacon-and-eggs were wafted to his nose. Nadyne called: "Come on, Willikins, and have um's beck'fust." Willard dashed into the kitchen and planted a perfunctory kiss upon his sister's brow. "How're you this morning, Sis?" "Fine. Did ums have a good sleep?" "Yes. Slept like a log after being awake on the train so long. Tell me, Sis, why do you always talk baby talk to me? I'm twenty-two, almost as old as you are!" "You may be almost as old as I am, but I'm a woman and you're just a boy that's the difference. Get me? But if it offends your highness, I won't talk any more baby talk to you. Let's eat." They began to consume the tasty breakfast that Nadyne had prepared. They talked of the folk at home, and other things of mutual import. Breakfast over, Willard lit a cigarette and began to puff. "Give me one, Will." Nadyne held out her slender, man-licured fingers. "What! You smoke, Sis?" "Why sure. Is that a crime?" "No, but I didn't think . . . " "Aw, gimme one of your Luckies and don't be such a baby. I tell you you're not a man yet!" "I'm not a baby. I don't mind any other girl smoking, but you, my sister, well . . . it's different." He yielded. They smoked in silence. Nadyne arose to clear the table. "Can I help you with the dishes, Sis?" "No, go in front and see what you can get on the radio. I'll attend to these things. Sorry I haven't some toys here for you to play with!" Willard went into the living room; in a few minutes the usual uninteresting forenoon radio program was flowing from the Atwater-Kent loud speaker. The doorbell rang. He switched off the radio. Nadyne called from the rear of the apartment. "See who it is, Willard. I haven't anything on but my dressing gown." Willard mabled to the door; he opened it to see a girl of perhaps twenty-four. She was tall, slender, and wore a short, simple gingham house dress that clung closely to her well-rounded busts and hips. "Such a glorious girl!" he thought. "They don't grow 'em like this down in Hicksville!" His mouth flew open with admiration; he was speechless for a moment. He automatically stepped aside as the girl walked majestically in and seated herself in a convenient armchair. She made herself perfectly at home. He closed the door and sat down before the radio again. "Where's Nadyne?" the girl asked. "She's busy getting dressed. She'll be in in a minute. Must I tell who it is?" "No. She knows. You're her brother, Willard, aren't you?" He forgot about the radio, and shifted into an armchair that faced her. Now he could see, and enjoy, her symmetrically tapered, crossed legs to greater advantage. CLASSIFIED ADS HELP WANTED—MALE DETECTIVES—Travel, make secret investigations. Experience unnecessary.

I began to like this town about ten minutes ago . . . when you came into this room." "Why should that affect your likes or dislikes?" "Because where I hail from they don't have any real girls like you!" "You sure have a good line, all right. Go ahead and broadcast . . . I'm listening in." Catherine immediately took the hint.

Her face clouded, her brow wrinkled, she bit her lips. Then, just as suddenly, everything was all right with her. Dancing Gatherer asked Nadyne, "Gotta smoke, kid?" "No. but Willard has some." Willard gave her a cigarette and lit it for her: it gave him a touch of pride to do so. He didn't mind seeing this girl snake, rather, he relished it. Catherine arose, went to the Orthophonic and started it going. The strains of ^ lcdown "stomp" filled the room. It was writhy music. She caught Willard with a "let's dance." They danced. Catherine, her head tilted back, eyes half closed, lips puckered invitingly, voluptuously abandoned her body to his guidance. The record stopped. They stood for a minute as if bewildered. She whispered to Willard: "I believe you could be real naughty if you wanted to be." She tore awav abruptly, like a wild thing, and said that she had to go. "Meet me at eleven, tonight. Apartment 77, other end of hall. So long, Nadyne. So long, Will." She threw him a kiss and left the room. As soon as Catherine had gone, Nadyne spoke: "Will, I'm so sorry I told her about the show, I don't know what to do." "How's that?" "Because I don't want you to go with her!" "What! You jealous of your own brother?" Married! "No, indeed! Not at all, Will That's not it. You see, Catherine is married and living with her husband. Didn't she tell you?" Willard was momentarily stunned. His air-castles had tumbled all about him and he was caught in the debris. "She sure is. Her husband is right up on the next floor. He works; he's night manager of the Socony Garage. That's what Catherine was figuring on her husband being at work. She's always going out with some fellow, but sooner or later she'll get caught, as there's a first time for everything, you know! I'd certainly hate to see you be the one to get messed up with her. Now that you know . . . for God's sake get wise to yourself and tell her that you can't go!" "I won't tell her! I've made the date and I'm gonna keep it! Married or no married, I like her and I'm going out with her tonight!" "Will, you are a big fool, even if you are my brother. I don't want you to go with her!" "But she's your friend. Ain't she?" "Yes, but that's no reason I should sanction everything she does. Even if she is my friend, there's a lot of things she would do that I wouldn't do!" "You shouldn't have suggested it, then" "Honest.

What: For me, Bonnie: "John, I hate like the devil to putcha wise to this but if you must know . . . I just brought your wife and some guy uptown . . . picked 'em up as the midnite show was letting out." "The hell you say!" "Certainly did. Didn't realize that it was your wife until they got out. Gotta good look at her while waiting for the guy to get his loose change together." "Lonnie, I think you're lying!" "Oh no! Hasn't your wife gotta black coat, trimmed in gray, and ain't she gotta red hat with a little brass monkey or somethin' on it?" "Yes, She has!" "Sure was her all right. And besides, the guy called her 'Catherin dear!" "For cripes sakes, Lonnie, where'd you leave 'em?" "At the corner of One Hundred and Fortieth street and Seventh avenue They were going to have lunch somewhere; I heard 'em say so." Mr. Carson Is "Hot" Carson leaped into the taxi like a madman. "To hell with that spare-tire! You don't need it now! Take me home, Lonnie, and make it snappy!" Nadyne Worthington was awakened by the sound of her door-bell ringing angrily. She snapped on the lights, glanced at the mantel clock. "Nadyne, it's John: John Carson, open up!" He hammered furiously; she opened the door. He rushed in, wild-eyed. "What does this mean, John Carson?" "Catherine is out with some man . . . thought maybe she was down here on a party or somethin'! If I can only catch her, I'll . . ." "Calm yourself, John. I don't think that Catherine would two-time you." "She's doing nothing else but! Here I am working and slaving all night long, every night, to make her a home, to give her everything she wants and she's running around with first one guy and then the other!"

Nobody Home About twelve o'clock that night Nadyne went upstairs to see if Catherine was at home. She rang repeatedly but got no response. Except the maucous, staccato barks of Catherine's Pomeranian, not a sound came from the apartment. She asked the night elevator man if he had taken Mrs. Carson down recently. "Yes. She and some sheik went outta here about eleven o'clock." "What did the man nave on?" "I think, a brown suit . . . I forget what else . . . But he was medium-brown, just about your color. He looked something like you, too!" her heart felt faint, as if it would stop. "My brother," she thought, "and that damned lussy. The cat! Oh well, maybe he'll come out all right! I'll go to bed anyway." She went down to her apartment and so to bed. Shortly after three-thirty m., a taxi pulled into the Socony Garage to have a flat spare-tire fixed. John Carson, the manager, walked over to the driver who waited impatiently. The exchanged greetings. "Seen anything exciting around town, Lonnie?" "Yes, John. I did see something. But come to think, I better not tell you." "The hell you say!" "Lonnie, I think you're lying!" Mr. Carson Is "Hot" It was precisely four a.m. She called through the door "Well, what do you want?" He rushed in wild-eved. ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—October 18, 1930 erty. She hasn't come home yet! I'm going down and stand in the hallway on the ground floor, and if she comes in this building tonight . . . there'll be another murder in Harlem. As for that dirty, low . . . that's with her, I just want to lay eyes on him!" "John, don't do anything rash! Please don't! Think of yourself! You don't want to get the chair, do you?" "What does it matter? After the way that girl has done me? I don't give a hang with happens!" Nadyne Thinks Fast Nadyne thought fast. Catherine . . . her brother . . . John . . . a double killing! John, hatless and coatless, paced nervously to and fro in front of her. His eyes still flamed with hatred and determination. He said nothing. Nadyne watched him timorously. Nadyne watched him innocently. He turned to leave the apartment and placed his hand on the doorknob. Nadyne rushed after him and cried: "John, wait a minute! Don't hurt Catherine, you mustn't!" She placed a hand on her throbbing forehead, tottered and fell in a sobbing, trembling heap at his feet. She stiffened and relaxed as if dead. John looked down at her; his heart softened. The meanest of men sometimes relicts at the sight of a fainting woman. Carson now felt guilty of having wounded her by his conduct. He knelt beside her and lifted her in his arms. "Nady, what's wrong? Nadyne. say something!" She made no answer. Her sad brown eyes held a vacant stare and did not recognize him. John nervously picked her up from the floor and carried her bodily across the room. He laid her limp fern on the daybed that stood in the corner. She shook her, but she remained almost lifeless. He let her sink back into the deep cushions. John then brought a tumbler of cold water from the bathroom; he dashed it in her face. Nadyne revived slightly—enough to recognize him. She clutched him frantically. "John, I am sick . . . my heart! You don't realize how you have made me feel by your actions. . . Catherine is my best friend . . . my only friend here. Promise me you won't harm her!" "I swear I won't bother her now, Nadyne. I'm so sorry, for your sake, that things happened this way." Nadyne breathed a relieved sigh and dropped back as if in a sound sleep. John eyed her. He was ill at ease. Brother Will Arrives The doorbell rang lustily, Nadyne came to her senses; John jumped to his feet. "John, it's my brother, Will . . just getting home from a dance . ."

Willard hesitated; he didn't know what to say. "Don't stand there dreaming, Will! Go on! I'm sick, I tell you!" Her brother shuffled away. She closed the door and hastened to John's side. "John, you must leave here at once it looks bad! I feel a little better now. Will is coming back soon and he'll care for me. But, John, promise ne that you'll go back to the garage and not go up there molesting Catherine tonight. Will you?" **John Promises** She looked into his eyes seductively. "Yes, Nadyne," he blurted huskily, "for your sake I will; but she's gonna catch hell later on, when I come home!" "That's another story, but go now, John!" He went out; Nadyne was delighted to hear the sound of his footsteps descending, instead of ascending, the hallway stairs.

They found her in this dingy attic alone in solitary confinement. Like a prisoner sentenced to death, half dead, with glittering eyes, but she wasn't so mad she failed to understand that Jack was no more and had told them to let her out with his dying breath. Then she made them take her to his grave—he had been buried the day of his death—and they had to drag her away from it. She never married. She remanied where she was, close to the grave of the man she loved, conducting his business as expertly as he had done it. But she never married. Those old people who tell this story in their slipshod way, without emotion in their voices, their words dry, do not realize that they are telling the world's master love story.
