We have gone so far to find reasons for things that we are inclined to throw over board all that we cannot explain on a rational basis. This should not be. After all there are some things which we will always do for which we cannot always give a satisfactory reason. Why do we laugh when things please us? There is one thing we ought to do for which we can give ample reasons. THE PLANET is celebrating its forty-eighth anniversary this year and is sending forth this special issue of November 15th. We as citizens of America and more especially of Virginia and Richmond should rejoice with THE PLANET and send a letter or card of congratulation. We should do more, we should subscribe to and support THE PLANET.—Why? Age alone is sometimes given preference. Much of the antique furniture is of little value except its age, yet people pay hundreds of dollars for such furniture. Many have traveled to see the Egyptian pyramids simply because the pyramids are said to be so old. The first thing built, written or made is worth while because of its age alone. Whether we believe that Adam or some other product of evolution was the first man, we all are deeply interested in who the first man was.

Breathes there a man with soul so THE PLANET was among the first Negro weeklies in America and is the oldest one now surviving. It blazed the trail for many other Negro papers. It went out on an adventure. It undertook to do what even many Negroes themselves believe could not be done. It was almost a pure experiment. Few Negro examples were on record either for imitation or as warnings. It had many meanderings, but JOHN MITCHEL kept it moving. THE PLANET still lives. Where is the first Negro bank of Richmond? Where is the first Negro insurance company of America? Where is the first Negro society of America? All of these have long since perished but THE PLANET, one of the earliest newspapers still lives. Considering the crises through which all Negro enterprises must continually pass, we do not hesitate in saying that for any Negro enterprise to survive nearly fifty years, for it "to be living is sublime." 2. Because of Its Location THE PLANET ought to be supported if for nothing more than its basis of operation—the place of its publication—RICHMOND. The capitol of every state ought to have the best paper in the state—certainly one as good as in any other place in the state. This reason is tooobvious to require explanation. Richmond is the capitol and gateway of the South, the former capitol of the southern confederacy, the city which held the balance of power when the Negroes' freedom was being weighed in the balance; it is the center of education for black and white; it is a city of churches and what not. Should not such a city see to it that THE PLANET lacks for nothing? And furthermore—Richmond is in Virginia—Virginia which is rich with history and crowned with a worthwhile heritage. Are we so dumb as not to value our heritage? Should the Negroes in any state have a better weekly newspaper than the Negroes in Virginia at Richmond? Not only local but state pride demands that we support and encourage THE PLANET. 3. Because of Race Pride We are not clannish nor provincial nor selfish, nor tainted with a love of kind when we plead for THE PLANET because of its location. We are national, for THE PLANET was not only the first Negro weekly in Richmond, Virginia, but among the first in America. Wherever the Negro be in America THE PLANET is his PLANET. Breathes there a man with soul so dead Who never to himself has said America is a religious country. The fact that they might be religious.

Said America is a religious country. The Pilgrims came here that they might be religious. However much we may seem to be drifting from that noble purpose, the writer makes no apology for pleading for THE PLANET on this ground. Its Editor, the late John Mitchell, Jr., was a churchman. The writer knows that Mr. Mitchell did once break with the church of which he was a member. But he did not break with the church as such. He left and joined another. Many editors feel no personal spiritual need for the church. When the crash came in a financial institution of which Mr. Mitchell was head, he called around him the leading clergymen of this city, as well as lawyers. He was deeply interested in the coming and going of every pastor of this city, not as a matters of "news," but because of religious interests which moved him. That religious attitude seems to have been transmitted to the present editors. A few days ago the writer went into the editorial room and found one of the writers working on an article for publication, which concerned a certain church of the city. Said he, "I will not pub- PAGE TWO THE UNNET 1. Because of Its Age 4.

Buy or build a modern picture house, feature first-class moving pictures giving first-class entertainment at the same price or a little cheaper than those houses operated by whites for Negroes. There are a great many Negroes here who do not subscribe to the class of entertainment "dished out" to the patrons of the movie houses now operated for Negroes, but instead of protesting to the management informing him of their displeasure they go where the first class entertainment is to be found entirely disregarding the conditions pdeer which it is invariably obtained. A theatre owned and operated by Negroes should put an end to this practice. The Millions of dollars beinging to Negroes that is now lying idle in the various banks of the city could be used to create places of employment for some of those honest Negroes who are now forced to wolk the streets in idleness. Yes we have the organized charities, but this writer does not believe in charity in the same sense in which it is considered today, as it has a tendency to weaken the moral fibre of the individual. It is an insult to a MAN to offer him charity, what he wants is wor, so that he can maintain his standing as a man and not be reduced to a mendicant. It is therefore much better to do something that will give employment to a number of Negroes than to readily give so much to organized charity. Build, and follow the example of the National Ideal Society—C-O-O-P-ER-A-T-. INTERRACIALLY SPEAKING Could the shades of Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee have been present at the race relations meeting in old St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Richmond last week they would doubtless have been as much surprised at what they saw there as by the automobiles racing in the streets or the radios broadcasting in ten million homes. For there, in the old religious capital of the Confederacy, where Sunday after Sunday they used to worship during the Civil War, was gathered an interracial audience of a thousand, while on the platform sat the governor of Virginia as host and introducer of the principal speaker of the evening, none other than Dr. Robert R. Moton, outstanding representative of twelve million American Negroes. To one with a vivid imagination it was a dramatic occasion; even to the most matter of fact it was highly significant. It illustrated first the astonishing progress made by the colored race since its emancipation sixty years ago—progress which authorities say has never been equalled by that of any other group in the same length of time. The five hundred Negroes assembled in old St. Paul's on this occasion were free men, legally endowed with all the rights of American citizenship. Not all these rights have been attained in fact, one must admit; in some respects, indeed, they are seriously limited and denied. But after all allowances are made, what a contrast one sees between that audience of free, upstanding, self-respecting men and women, many of them prosperous and a number wealthy, and the few shrinking re- Air-mindedness is exploited and urged on every side. What does it mean? The well-known pastor of a great church in Southern California, Dr. Stewart P. MacLennan of Hollywood, answered this question in a recent sermon to his people, and his message was carried through the air by radio to a vast unseen audience, reaching to the Middle West, to Vancouver and Victoria in the North, and to Hawaii far out in the Pacific. The Sunday School Times (Philadelphia) will give this sermon in a coming issue. Dr. MacLennan believes that the lish this if you think that it w church."

Many weeklys have gladly published such an article headed with adulterated lines. The writer has more reasons still. He has always supported THE PLANET. He sold it on the streets when he was a boy. He has not mentioned the fact that THE PLANET gives us news, is a medium for our advertisements and business and social announcements and political platforms and the like. All newspapers do these things, but in addition to all these THE PLANET is a Richmond, Virginia, church balanced paper and is THE OLDEST Negro weekly in America—We congratulate THE PLANET and predict for it a wider circulation in the coming half century than in the one which is about to pass.

Build, and national Ideal Society—C-O-O-P-ER- tainers who sat in the gallery of St. Paul's sixty odd years ago, unable to call anything their own. The meeting was significant of a great change in attitude. One finds it difficult to picture Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederacy, sitting on the same platform with Frederick Douglas and introducing in terms of appreciation and respect. Yet that is just the spectacle which was presented the other night in St. Paul's. Governor Pollard's introduction was as dignified, as sincere, as courteous and cordial as if he had been introducing a great man of any other race. It was, in fact, one Virginia gentleman introducing another to a Virginia audience of both races, meeting on the plane of common citizenship and humanity. The occasion was significant also in the hope which it held for the future. It was part of an all-day program put on at St. Paul's by the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, in which a hundred of the religious leaders of Virginia faced frankly the vital needs of the State's Negro citizenship and accepted responsibility to do their utmost, both personally and through the groups they represent, to see that these needs are met. A number of coloured leaders stated the case for their group, frankly and vigorously. There was no effort on the part of their white friends to escape or discount the indictment; but on the contrary a frank confession that things were not as they should be and that it was the business of all right-thinking people to help make them right. Major Moton's address was the fitting climax of this program, pointing out the contribution each race can make toward working out cooperatively the problems that are common to both. world's present air-mindedness indicates the near end of this age. He marshals sensational facts for our consideration. The Scriptures teach plainly that Jesus Christ is coming back to earth. He is coming soon, to catch up His Church to meet Him in the air. All men's eyes are turned upward, some because of human achievement, some looking for Him. "The human voice, by the power of science, can now be heard around the world. Purely the King of glory, with His infinite resources, can make Himself heard and seen by eyes and ears in the remotest bound of earth." in any wise reebct upon the gladly published such an article as still.

SAYS JOE SIMPSON Hits And Bits WHAT AMERICA NEEDS This country needs only about FIVE MILLION Negroes who have a mind, an opinion, an objective, a determination and a willingness to follow a real NEGRO LEADER untrammeled by FINANCIAL or ECONOMIC alliances with any other race, a little more BACK-BONE, a little less WISH-BONE and who would rather DIE seeking freedom than to live the life of CHATTEL SLAVES. This little band augmented by about ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND could change the status of the American Negro, politically, financially and economically, in a period of less than two years. BLACK DEMOCRATS Now is the time for Negroes to begin work shaping the minds of the less informed members of the race in order to muster out a formidable army of Negro voters at the polls in the coming elections. Mr. Hoover, no doubt, will be up for re-election versus some man nominated by the democratic party, probably Franklin D. Roosevelt. If the Negroes can muster enough votes to place the democrats in power they may look forward to a realization of some of the things they crave while rendering at the same time a telling and lasting rebuke to the republican party. If the contest is as we expect, between Hoover and Roosevelt every Negro in the nation should vote ROOSEVELT FOR PRESIDENT. MAN OR MONKEY It costs only ONE DOLLAR-AND-A-HALF per year to be a REAL MAN, a bonafide CITIZEN; the small sum spent in this connection as well as the little time lost in doing so is time and money WISELY SPENT. We all want the benefits to be derived from this source, we want to be citizens, but we just WONT take the TIME, the TROUBLE, and we are unwilling to bear the expense and the responsibility attendant upon such a position. Nothing worthwhile is ever won without some sacrifice, this being true, let's sacrifice a little money, -a little time, and become VOTING CITIZENS. LET'S BE MEN, NOT MONKEYS. HARD, BUT FAIR So many people have asked me how much I get for writing this column that I take occasion this week to answer them. My pay is measured by what is commonly called "space rates." The MORE I write the LESS I draw; in other words, if I write something that takes upa lot of valuable space I don't draw much, but if Icrowd a large amount of substance in a few words I get good pay. "The less I write the Mome I Get," so when I stop altogether my income will permit me to live the rest of my days in ease. WE ARE TO BLAME: "IT'S A SHAME" The Negro youth of Richmond is fast becoming an army of "HI-JACKERS, CRAP-SHOOTERS simply because they have nothing else to do. If we provide no place for them to display their skill in harmless games, community contests and other things that would arouse in them the community spirit and elevate their minds to a plane on which they would appreciate the better things, and see the better side of life. A REAL MODERN AND UP-TO-ATE Y. M. C. A., for instance, we can not expect any more. A decent "Y" building modernly equipped with a man in charge who is a "liberal" in religious beliefs, would prove to be a wise investment which would pay liberal dividends in increasing the moral character of future generations of Negroes. A GREAT MASS MEETING There will be a great mass meeting at the Sharon Baptist Church, Tuesday, November 18th, at 8:00 p.m., under the auspices of the church clubs. Rev. Gordon B.

JULIA LATHROP. HEALTH EDUCATION HYGIENE HAPPINESS The Richmond Beneficial Insurance Co. The Richmond Beneficial Insurance Company, organized July 14, 1894 by a group or Richmond's influential and progressive citizens has made its way for more than 36 years in serving the public of Virginia and the District of Columbia. Beginning as an acorn it has grown to be a giant oak. A notable feature of this institution is that it has in its employ at least 250 of our group, as officers, inspectors, superintendents, clerks and agents. Splendid buildings are own by it in Richmond, Washington, Newport News, Danville and Portsmouth. Besides its investment in Real Estate, much of its assets are invested in bonds, first mortgage notes and other collateral. The plicies issuer by this company are arranged to suit all conditions, Health, Accident and Life contracts are sold at the lowest cost. During its history this institution has paid to policy holders many millions for sick and death claims- The company's officers and directors are composed of men of sterling qualities and financial ability. They are as follows: S. J. Gilpin, President; M. H. Payne, Vice President; John T. Taylor, Secretary-Manager; C. B. Gilpin, Assistant Secretary-Manager; J. J. Carter, Treasurer; Quinn Shelton, Anderson Knox, J. E. Harris, and Percy Wilson, Directors. For moer than 33 years this great institution was managed and directed by John T. Taylor, pioneer business man and financier. He was stricken with illness February 1929. Since which time the management has been under the direction of Mr. C. B. Gilpin, Asst. Secretary-Manager, who has spent 28 years in the service of this institution. The institution is growing yearly and takes a delight in serving its patrons in the most courteous manner. The Richmond district office is under the skillful management of Mr. J. E. Harris. In July 1920, the affairs of the institution were thoroughly examined by the Insurance Department of Virginia, whose report shows the institution to be in a healthy financial condition and also stated that its affairs are managed by capable and efficient officers.

C.—More than 700 years ago a child's crusade brought death to nearly 90,000 children. The new children's crusade, led by the President of the United States and 1,100 scientific idealists, will bring more abundant life to hundreds of thousands of children when the plans for the White House Conference on Child Health and Protection come to fruition. Making surveys of child problems under the direction of the President and his aides, Secretary of the Interior Ray Lyman Wilbur, chairman of the Conference, and Dr. H. E. Barnard, director, are many pioneers in work for children. A number are women. One, Miss Julia Lathrop was the first chief of the United States Children's Bureau after its formation.

White) All those who were present last Sunday at Moore Street Baptist Church enjoyed a real service. Dr. Hancock's devotionals, is a great part of the service and are different from any in the City that I have witnessed. After which he preached a great sermon. His subject was "What to do next." He used as his text Eph. 6th Chapter 13th verse which reads,—"And having done all, to stand." Dr. Hancock's sermon in text as follows: In the realms of nature as in nature, evidences are multiplied that Christian life-all life is a tree, doused conflict; that the opposition stubborn and unrelenting; that there must be no let up lest we be overwhelmed ingloriously on the battlefield of life. By reason of his contacts with Rome that fighting action. St. Paul was impressed with necessity of fighting to the bitter end. When he had come to the end of life, he declared not only that he had finished his course and kept the faith but that he had fought a good fight. In the lesson of the morning he is urging the Church at Ephesus to put on the whole armour-the girdle of truth. The girdle was the sword belt and without it free movements were impossible as flowing robes impeded action. When at rest the soldier wore his robes loose but when he went into action his robe was tied down with a girdle. The breast-plate of righteousness—All of the vital organs are in the breast, nature protects our breast with a bony cage of bruises because the breast contains the vitals of life. Sandals—shose of the gospel preparation. The road is rough AMBULANCE SERVICE 210-12 E. Leigh St. and rugged and a barefoot soldier is at a woeful disadvantage. Then too the gospel of Jesus is a "go Gospel" and the goer must be shod otherwise he may grow weary and faint for the roughness of the way. The shield of faith. For close fighting. When men are fighting in close quarters they need a shield and a good one at that. The helmet of salvation. The head must be protected or when the head is wounded all the other armour will be cast away in the sleeve. Finally the sword of the spirit. This is the only offensive weapon which suggests that it is not enough to keep protected from the enemy we must advance to meet him. Even upon the surface of Paul's language is the commanding truth that spiritual forces are far more powerful than material ones. It has taken mankind so long to learn this truth because from time to time it seems to contradict or overshadow by the turns in the world events. Yet in the long run it reasserts itself powerfully in the lives of men and nations. A strong will is far more powerful than a muscled arm. Well has it been said that they who aspire to rule in permanence must base their throne not upon standing armies, mighty navies and bayonets, but upon convictions and sympathies, upon understandings and upon impired hearts. Paul knew that the Church's great fight was not with Roman pro-consuls and legions of a far flung empire but with the thought and reason of a pagan world.

There is something pathetic when the best plan fails and when the strong man is bound; when our best is not enough to conquer. There is no more hopeless and pathetic than a poor human who has done all. When an army makes its last stand, when a team does its best yet loses; when the physician writes his best prescription yet the patient keeps on sinking; when we do our level best and keep on failing. And having done all, to stand. Whoseever stands after doing all is standing on faith. Where work fails faith may take up the fight. FAITH IS SOME HIGHER POWER IS THE GREAT NEED AFTER WE HAVE DONE ALL. This Organization has Settled 21,454 CLAIMS amounting to $2,244,947.00 Richmond, Va.

Copy. Teste: LUTHER LIBBY, Clerk. by Ira M. Barr, D. C. L. Henry Crutchief, p. q. CHAPEL SERVICE Washington, D. C., Nov. 1980.—Definite arrangements have been made by the National Equal Rights League and Race Congress for the holding of an open National Colored American Anti-Lynching Congress to face the alarming increase of lynchings, with an assembled racial protest expression by the race, and deliberation for a race offensive against the nation-wide menace. The League has secured the big John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, 14th and Corcoran Streets, Northwest, for this two-days' Anti-Lynching Congress on Nov. 24 and 25, to which every racial body and all branches throughout the country are urged to send representatives, and which all interested individual members of the race are invited to attend and participate in, to the end that the country may be made to know that the race which alone is lynched deeply feels the danger and resents the cruelty and debasement of these American atrocities. The Congress will be an open assembly which will organize itself when assembling independently of any one organization, the League being simply the inviting host, which gives up to this Congress two days of its annual meetings, which will now consist of a one-day session the next day. Allinquiries as to details should be addressed to Washington Headquarters, 906 T St., N. W, James L.

Norfolk News Madison 577 To Dot, From Cecelia To Dot, From Cecelia I understand that a large group of interests will be added this week to sketch our lines, but we do not mind. They may be cities, but at least we will have attracted their attention. I hardly think that my last letter to you included all the out of town witnesses at the Union—Virginia State football triumph on Saturday.

The Alphas, the Omegas, and the Varsity Club contributed all efforts necessary to an afternoon and evening of pleasure for the visitors. The Alpha invitations were to the “Barr” from 6:00 to 9:00.

SPORT CHATTER State-Union Battle To 13 To 13 Deadlock In Homecoming Feud Fray AS CHATTED BY "RICHIE." GRID GRAMS KELLER Well GGang: Just another day of upsets but not as bad as the catastrophes of last week. A primed tar-heel aggregation trapped a cocky Hampton Eleven in the Greensboro liar and drubbed the Seasiders to a 12-7 setback. A. and T. will have to be reckoned with next year. Speakin' o' being reckoned with don't overlook the Morgan Bears. The Marylanders have met but one setback during the entire season and it occurred when Coach Hucles primed Panthers snarled them down ignominiously in the last quarter of a thrilling fracas at Hovey Field. As per prediction the Scribe doped the Marylanders to trample Seminary and they did. Yes 18-0 worth. The Union State Fracas at Hovey Field kept the spectators on edge. The Panthers stared a first quarter comback which dazzled the Orange and Blue. And if quite is kept (vice-versa). State emerged in the last quarter on a downfield rampage and trolled the score up to a 18-13 deadlock. This lad Maxey Robinson certainly showed the boys from Etttricks some heels. A duo-touchdown marker for that boy. Sfunny how badly Lincoln trampled the lilfellows from St. Paul. I suppose that the Episcopalians thought that the Lions were not to be considered—especially since they tied Union. Ha! "jus' 42-? Howard conned another game. I suppose the North Carolina game at Washington was a Classic. Don't want to pin crepe but it is the opinion of the scribe that Tommy Verdell will get another appointment soon. HYMN OF HATE A guy I hate. Is last named Lynx Sez he "The Panthers Wins were all jinx. No more is thought of Bohunkus Katnip A vessel thinks he Is a chapionship. "IF" If Union beats Shaw, St. Augustine, and wins or ties over Hampton the Sheep Hill aggregation will cep C. I. A. A. championship. If Morgan beats N. C.

Well gang heres looking forward to perfect dope sheet. This C. I. A. A. and National grid grind is just a series of upsets. We find it East, West, North and South. Real honest to-goodness material seems to be the coaches' lament. All of these dope upsets are due to the fact that the big teams are priming for big opponents and lil fellows catching them on the rebound lick 'em. This C. I. A. A. race is become just a question of who is upset least. When these scribes begin the selection of All what-nots, just watch. The Planet Sports Editor will pick outstanding gridders to fill berths in the mythical all C. I. A. A. Elevens. Watch for the C. I. A. A. Sport Streak. Am going to drop over to State and cover the hectic Ginias game. Get an eyeful in next weeks Sport Sheet. Union is about to take another day off lets hope her job is not lost when she returns. Gimme the low down on the Union-Shaw game at Hovey Field. It will be the last game of the year at Richmond, Every! Yours for heavier Chatter, The Scribe Knoxville, Tenn., Nov. 8—Knoxville college gridders are preparing for the closing games of their schedule, looking forward particularly to the Thanksgiving Day game with A. anc. N. University at Langston, Oklahoma. Games during the two intervening weeks include Livingstone College, at Salisbury, N. C., and Alabama, at M., of Normal, Alabama, at Knoxville. In the Southeastern Conference, Knoxville has suffered defeat at the hands of Morehouse and Tuskegee, while Talllegra was beaten by a score of 19-6. Coaches Hawkins and Matthews have a few surprises ready for teams which are on the schedule for the remainder of the season and Knoxville should finish the year above the 500 per cent mark. THE RICHMOND PLANET AS BRDAOCASTED By "Richie" C. Keller Well folks its a clear day—ideal football weather and masses of people are surging in Hovey Field while the "rinkeydinks" are getting forced grand stand seats—a few are in the trees. Oh boy that was funny—a little boy parked on a sharp and of barb wire—ha ha—Gee—here comes an array of Orange and Blue gridders and wow! What a hand the crowd is giving the State fellows. They're priming up now and "Bo" Williams is giving that educated tooe of his a last minute "exam". This is gonna be a great game. The Martin men are out to avenge the years of drubbings administered by Hucles' proteges in years of ferocious combat. Here comes Union—a determined looking, scrappy bunch of fellows these Panthers—no array to their entry—just a plain "Get down to grid grind" "come in". There goes the whistle and the mast hectic tell of the cleated turf is underway. Teams are lining up while rabid fans are creating a furor of dim—there goes the kick off from State—it's way back—Maxey is under it on his own five yard stripe and the games on—a stiff arm oh baby what a beautiful side step he's off five ten—fifteen—twenty yards he's ripped off but oh he's brought down on the Union 30 yard line. Union is in the huddle—they're out—looks like a forward pass—it was a pass but alas its grounded—Another aero—attempt Williams Yes—Capt. Johny is reaching for it but it too far balls back and the "ref" is picing off a five yard penalty against Union. Spouse Union will kick "Wash" is dropping back—it is a kikick—but oh folks a bad pass from center—fall on it Wash—he does and its state's ball on Union's 8 yard stripe. That Statesman formation looks aggressive—here they go—a giant of a fellow has the ball—it looks like Bounds running behind that interference—he's off—no not yet. Martin and "Big Boy" Robinson of Union got him that time. There he goes through center but wow gang, what a pile up—"Slim" Peters and "Smitty" rose like a stone wall—no gain, a try at Gill's end—No luck. Touch down theyre one to go. Bounds again hitting—it's a pile up—let's see where the ball, oh yes there's the oel pigskin just about 6 inches from goal—the ref is calling Union's ball 1st in 10—Union is getting ready to kick from the shadow of her goal NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE By Frank Sherlock Render. Before a small group of half-choked students and gaping football fans the Fisk University Bulldogs trounced a spirited band of athletes from over at Johnson C. Smith University this afternoon, November, 8, in Sulphur Dell, by a score of 21-6. But it was not until the second quarter that the Fiskites proved their prowess. The first period was marred with sulky and inanimated playing on the part of the victors and the lone tally of this period came via the strategy of the passing of Wiggins and Yost. The Carolina boys constantly threatened with their completion of passes and successful line bucking, but they were unable to penetrate the Bulldog line tooy awaken when in the shadows of the goal. Nothing of marked interest can be said of this half of the fray. This game, however, did have some exciting moments brought to bear—Yost's spiraling kicks up and down the field 50 to 70 yards actually true, and Wiggins consistently be wildering the Carolina boys and little "Dick" Cox barking signals and spinning through center, tackle, guard and throughout, and then victory for "Tubby" after last week's defeat. But you should have seen Joe run. Line-up. Fisk J. C.

Knoxville, Tenn., Nov. 8.—In a game marked by unnecessarily hard playing, Knoxville College Bulldogs lost to 24th Infantry of Ft. Benning, Ga., after they had outplayed them in practically the whole game. The army team was much heavier than the Knoxville gridders and it was sheer weight and force which defeated the strategy of the fast Hawkins' coached machine. Both teams fought harder in the second half and the army gridders seemed determined to make a touchdown at all costs. Aided by completion of several passes and fortunate rulings of officials the ball was carried over from the 10-yard line by Hurd. Place kick for goal was wide. posts but what's this—the head linesman is raving—what's it all about—The crowd is frenzied—he rules a touchdown Oh my—State gets a try for extra pain the balls in the air. Oh baby it's over and State has a doubtful 7-10 lead in the first 8 minutes of play. Union is angry, no folks that glint is mad—plain M—A—D. Look at her kick off to State. "Red" Dahney is after it—wonder why they call him "Red"—oh he has it but Geimeyn Cricketts! Capt. Johnny hit him low while Gill struck low—he's limping, can't be a casualty—too early for that—yes he's back. State's trying a line buck but an impregnable Panzer line so in the language of the popular song hit folks—again they问 "What's the Use" State is forced to kick here—yes "Be" Williams is dropping back, he's trying a short kick— Smitty is breaking through its following him—they've blocked that kick and the ball is bounding toward the sidelines they're recurring after it—Union and State somebody has it—caught it on the source it's Cubby Gill—no its Robinson 5-10-15-20 and eight more—it's a touchdown—Union has scored and say a kick that a run was, a take kick somebody's hit the line but he missed it. State's leading by a 7-6 margin in the first quarter. in the second quarter of this hectic tilt with a kick off to Union—who has that ball number—what It's Armistead and that hay is reeling off on fleet chats a rambling run for 30 yards. Union is in the huddle—theyre out "Lil Gut" Williams is dropping back an end is coming in to knock down what looks like a forward pass Gee folks— Armistead clipped him he's sky high and Williams has hurled a "bullety pass" through the Robinson is cutting in, he's snared it—he turns, reverses, sidesteps, stiff arms, outstrips the safety man and he's running, running and running some more—forty fifty—seventy yards for a touchdown that bay has rambled leaving strewn in his wake a string of grasping, wing tackling Statesmen. A try for the extra point Gill has ripped through center—a beautiful low take Smitty and the score at the half folks reads like this State on lower end of 13-7 tally in thrilled packed titular tilt. What's that noise—paging Miss Harriett Wilson they're crying out Miss Jeanette Lyaton—what for?—oh folks I see a Miss Union—1930 ribbon floating to a lazy breeze—Miss Hucles "29" winner is pinning it on Miss Harriett Wilson while Jeanette offers congratulations. What's she saying to the crowd—oh that din—yes—ah she is blushing out thanks—a pretty girl she is—no fellows don't hurry down to the game the half is over and Kersey—what's this Folks—folks! this is a real classics.

Furs stay in storage and the "will call" or delivery is dated for November 22. Parties now are scaree and nobody's home, but on Thanksgiving Day in Washington, from dawn 'til dusk and ad infinitum everybody entertains in the season's social climax. Railroads will run excursions from New York, Chicago, and Atlanta, and motor car caravans will pour in from every direction. Those who can't ride may walk as did Kelly Miller, Jr., from New York in 1925. A Roman holiday in Washington has a two-fold attraction, both patriotic and collegiate which accounts for the 30,000 people expected to attend the game. Contrary to the rule of coaches but true to human nature, both Howard and Lincoln are directing their energies toward the big game at Washington on Thanksgiving Day. Weeks spent in the perfection of intricate plays which are held in reserve, and the accumulated experience derived from all other games combine to produce the "Football Classic of the year." An alumni tradition in both institutions emphasizes the Howard Lincoln game above every other on their respective schedules. As last year, "Lose to everybody else but HOLD LINCOLN TO A SCORELESS TIE and you have won a moral victory in a fairly successful season." "Let Morgan swamp you and Hampton hold you to a scoreless tie but BEAT HOWARD and we are satisfied." The business manager of the Howard University Board of Athletic Control is vicing with society and the coach in his effort to provide suitable accommodations in the Griffith Stands. He urges, however, that applications for tickets, accompanied by Post Office Money Order, or certified check, be sent in immediately as the best seats are limited and the time comparatively short. 1920 Virginia Union's Football Squad PHONE: MADISON 6684 TRY A "HOME COOKED MEAL" Private Dining Rooms Rooms by Day or Week Modern Conve MR. & MRS.

VITAPHONE Says Negroes Came To America Before Columbus Lynchburg, Va. (ANP) Lorenzo J. Greene, research investigator for the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, addressed the teachers and students of Lynchburg Theological Seminary, at Lynchburg, Virginia, Tuesday. Mr. Greene told his audience that the widespread ignorance the world over concerning the Negro's past, the omission of anything creditable concerning him in text books and other literature, the willful suppression of known facts, and the engendering of denereate propaganda under the guise of history calculated to demean and to deceive the Negro not only in the eyes of the world, but of the Negro himself, has made the study and circulation of the real facts of Negro history imperative. Mr. Greene refuted many accepted but erroneous theories concerning the Negro, mucu to the delight of his listeners. He dispelled the notion that the Negro had his beginnings in slavery by narrating the rich heritage of the Negro in Africa before the destruction of the great Negro kingdoms there following the beginning of the slave trade. He also took issue with the current theory that the Negro has always lacked pioneering spirit, by pointing out that recent investigation has shown that Negroes actually visited America long before Columbus and had left here as evidence of their coming such highly prized commodities as cotton, tobacco, and yams. It is also common knowledge, the speaker added, that Negroes accompanied all the Spanish explorers in their colonization of North and South America. They were with Pizarro in Peru, with Cortez in Mexico, De Soto upon his discovery of the Mississippi, with Ponce De Leon in Florida, and with Coronado in New Mexico, Arizona, and other parts of what is now the Southwestern United States. The speaker further stated that the theory that the Negro cannot compete intellectually with the white race is an idle shibboleth founded upon prejudice and ignorance alone. To disprove such he recalled Negroes who had excelled in various fields of endeavor. Among them he ranked Sebastian Gomez, the great Spanish Negro painter, in the same class with Raphael and Leonardo di Vinci, called Matzeliger, the Negro inventor of shoe machine, in the same breath with Fulton and Gutenberg, regarded Juan Latino, and Antar the equals of either Geothe or Byron in the field of poetry, and placed Essadi, the Negro historian, in the same classification as McCauley or Bancroft. Both the teachers and students listened in rapt attention as Mr. Green unfolded the story of Negro achievement. es Came To before Columbus Came To Fore Columbus VA. SEMINARY WILL HOLD DRIVE MEETING NOV. 26 According to an announcement issued today by Dean Morris arrangements are being rapidly perfected for the monster victory drive meeting at Virginia Theological Seminary and College on Wednesday evening, November 26, at eight o'clock. The chief speaker on the night of November 26, will be the Hon. E. Washington Rhodes, editor of the Philadelphia Tribune and United States District Attorney for eastern Pennsylvania. His subject will be; "How Not to be Poor." The far-famed Twilight Singers will render special musical selections for the event. A quartet from the First Baptist Church of Roanoke under the direction of Ballad Majors will be a feature of the occasion. There will be some community singing in addition to one or two vocal renditions. Many of the leaders of the Baptist denomination in the state together with representatives of the ten-thousand members of the alumni scattered throughout the country will be in attendance at the meeting here. A large group of white people has been extended a very cordial invitation to be persent. Several contributions have come from members of the other race in the campaign. "THE DOORWAY TO HELL" When big business methods were adopted by gangsters and racketeers of the underworld, gang crime suddenly became one of America's greatest problems. Organized crime became the terror of citizens and city officials. The lawless gangs became too big and operated with too well-oiled machinery to cope with. What has happened since big business methods were introduced into a big city's underworld is vividly depicted in "The Doorway to Hell," the Warner Bros. and Vitaphone melodrama of rackets and racketeers at the National Theatre next week. Open warfare machine gun tattles and the organized systems of the vicious rackets with killer-leaders at their head—all are portrayed in this dynamic film. And through this maze of crime is woven a love story deep in raw human emotions between a youthful gangster and a woman who took him only to betray him. Lewis Ayres heads the cast of "The Doorway to Hell," as the baby-faced gangster-killer. Dorothy Mathews plays the girl. Charles Judels, Leon Janney, Robert Elliott, James Cagney, Kenneth Thomas, Jerry Mandy, and Noel Madison complete the cast. Archie Mayo directed. Rowland Brown wrote the original story and George Rosener the dialogue. A. E. B. h --- JOHN H. HARRIS W. S. Selden 1 H. G. Randolph DEWING LOT: SOUTHERN A.D.

But Josephine was not at all satis- fied to remain in the background. She realized that her dancing was done in an original and distinctly unique manner so she took her chance and Startvec on her own. From poverty and obscurity in the United States, Josephine “Black Bot- tomed” her way to fame and wealth abroad. In a short while she began to exceed even her own fondest hopes. She became a movie star, her starring picture being the “Siren of the Trop- ics.” She toured country after coun- try until her name blazed forth on every newspaper abroad. In fact, Europe wondered how such an at- traction could escape America’s no- tice, Such was the rise of a pretty little brownskinned girl from a poor little $20 a week chorus girl to a heaven of fame and wealth, But Josephine is not the only one who has shared the milk and honey of Europe’s Negro Heaven, look at Noble Sissle! At the famous Society rendezvous, “Les Ambassadeurs,” in Paris, Noble has played dance music like “nobody's business.” Irene Castle McLaughlin, Peggy Hopkins Joyce and many others well known throughout the world have commend- ed this jazz artist for the marvellous manner in which he puts over a song. Even Jascha Heifetz, the classic wiz- ard of the violin, said of the Noble Sissle band that it was “a fine band unequalled.” Others equally as dis- tinguished have praised this success- ful Negro orchestra. But over here in America, Noble Sissle directed just another Negro orchestra.

But he had never, never been recognized as capable of the amazing performances that he has consistently made abroad. Again a Negro star sought foreign fields to win his fame. Again he was rewarded—and handsomely. Today Noble Sissle and his orchestra known as the “Aces of Syncopation,” is, perhaps, the best known jazz at- traction in all Europe. In an entirely different field stands Paul Robeson, the most superbly ver- satile individual the Negro race has produced. As an artist he has proved [als mettle both on the stage and in the concert hall. His magnificent deep voice has “brought down” many a house in blond, Nordic England. His singing of Negro spirituals has many times been characterized as unsurpassed. While his recent tri- umph in the Shakespearean role of “Othello,” has never been equalled by white or black actor, He, of all the successes.in Europe, met with more recognition in Amer- ica than any. His acting in the “Em- peror Jones” really brought him be- fore the critical American public. His scholastic achievements and his ath- letic prowess were the forerunners of a brilliant career. However, it was not until he had triumphantly gone abroad that he won his great- est ovations. So complete and sustained has been his magnificent reception in England that he has secured himself a palatial home in an exclusive London resi- dential district where, with his charming wife and son, he now lives. England, if not Europe, has truly been heaven to the great Robeson. Individual Negro actors of lesser renown have been eminently success- ful in Europe when their ability in America has failed to make the grade. Many have starred in various productions over there that were not accessible to them over here. They have proved time and time again that merit will win, even though it seek foreign fields to do so. Other sepia teams who have won sustained success abroad, are Layton and Johnstone, whose song and dance specialties brought ‘hem unrivalled popularity in London. Their pic- tures appeared frequently in the Lon- don Tattler beside that of the Prince of Wales. Josephine Hall, well known blues singer and cabaret entertainer, was very recently the only Negro member of a cast that appeared in Stockholm, Sweden. She is credited with having given a stellar performance. Opportunity plus ability is perhaps the most logical reason for the tre- mendous success of Negro actors and actresses abroad. In America, the talent of colored theatrical stars is well recognized but the opportunity is not commensurate with their ability. But in Europe the belief is that when better entertainers are born, they will be Negroes. So isn't Eu- rope heaven for sepia theatrical stars?

I was then engaged to a young man, who as soon az his school was out, was to follow me and we were to marry. But lately he wrote me he never wished to see me again. It happened this way. I wrote to a girl friend of mine at home that I had a lot of new admirers who fancied me caaty judging by the way they lavished their attentions upon me. Then the mean girl showed my letter to my fiance. Now, I really love no one but him, the others I only play with. How snall I win his love and respect back? FOOLISH. My dear, don’t you know the first law of love is reticence? Of course, your young man is angry—you would be too in his posi- tion? And»don’t you know you can never trust even your best friend where a man in concerned? Your good times probably nade her envi- ous, possibly she saw that your boy friend was behaving himself better than you were and she thought you didn’t deserve to keep him.

Carl went by the cabin where Hotshot now lived with big Sally. He found the little man, shoes off and feet up on the porch rail, puffing contentedly at his corn cob pipe. "What cha say there, boy!" he greeted Carl. "Fust time you bin 'roun' my shack, ain't it?" "Better late than never," Carl responded pleasantly. "What's on yo' min', Carl?" "Oh, nothing much." "You ain' kiddin' me none," Hotshot responded. "Well----I-I wondered what I should wear tonight," the youth explained with a grin. Hotshot Drops a Hint "Wear some overhalls lessen you wants ev'ybody to shonuff think you's hinckty," Hotshot suggested. "Is yo' lady frien' gwine be 'mongst them present ternight?" he asked slyly. "Well, she told me that she would. I'm not taking her." "Humph!" "She said that after that—" Hotshot spat into the yard. "—after that why she gonna be with you," he finished dryly. "I spect she got to pick Bogo clean 'fo he goes." "Is he going?" Carl asked in surprise. "De Kunnel done tole him to leave here arter de scronch case he's mekin' whiskey and de Kunnel he don'wan' too much likker 'roun' here," Hotshot explained. Then he added, "You wants t' be careful t'night. Bogo think he got th' best go with Toto, and he'll be full a likker sides." "I'll be on the lookout," Carl promised. As dusk fell the youth bathed and shied with more care than he could remember since his first date with Antoinette in his junior year at college. He had taken her to a fraternity dance, and had been highly elated at the privilege because the girl belonged to the set of which he hoped to become a member. He chuckled now as he viewed the white shirt he had obtained that day from the supply house. However, he proceeded with his dressing with great care. Not until his hair was gleaming from a thorough combing did he desist, and his preparations completed, seat himself in the doorway to wait until things got going in the scronch. Carl is Nervous He felt an odd bashfulness at joining his fellow workers in a social way, and he knew that the word had gone around that he and Toto had become lovers. Tonight would be his first appearance with her, and he thrilled with something curiously like pride at the thought. He tried to scoff, telling himself that he was only going to a plantation party, but the quiet, throbbing happiness of expectation glowed steadily within him. He felt as he thought a prospective bridegroom must feel a few minutes before his marriage to one dearly loved. When the strains of the banjos and the shouts of merriment became apparent, he arose and sauntered very slowly through the woods. He idled along the way much as a bashful small boy who dreads to make his entrance at a party night have done. The night was dark, and true to the old woman's prophecy, the sky held a hint of rain. ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—November 15, 1930 WHAT OCCURRED IN THE LAST INSTALLMENT As they embrace Carl forgets Chicago, and Antoinette—and even his career. He tells Toto that he loves her. Toto promises to meet Carl at the scronch, and hints that after that he can see her as much as he wants. wants. The days pass until the day of the big doings. In the scronch circle preparations are going on at a great rate. Night finally comes, and Carl makes his way to the place only to find Toto standing by Bogo's side while the huge giant wins at the dice table. Carl is sick with jealousy. side, while the huge giant wins at the dice table. Carl is sick with jellyfish. It is the evening of the big scronch. All of the members of the plantation gather around. An old lady makes an ominous prophecy of rain. Breathing heavily, and with the red urge for blood burning through him, Carl crept like a jungle savage toward his fallen foe. At last Carl reached the scronching grounds. Around the bright fire many couples swayed in close embrace as One-Eye and a companion drew barbaric music from their instruments. There was much laughter and gaiety; much shouting and rough play among the men. Carl wandered through the dense crowd seeking Toto with an eagerness which he tried to hide. She was not among those who danced, nor was she among those who sat near the fire eating the redolent viands. The youth decided that she had not yet arrived. He walked carelessly over to the long tables, above which oil lanterns swung, casting a flickering light over the intent gamesters. Someone moved away at the dice table. Carl eased into his place and stood for a few minutes watching the play. Just as he was about to back out of the crowd he raised his eyes, and there, directly across the table, was Toto, standing close beside the giant Bogo. One of her arms was around the big man, and she was smiling up at him with a sweetness which turned Carl sick with sudden jealousy. The sight of the woman for whom he had conceived such a sudden, devastating love, standing beside Bogo brought a rush of hurting disgust to Carl. Unsteadily he pushed back out of the crowd without having been noticed. For a few minutes he stood motionless at the outer edge, sick with jealousy. The feeling was new to him. Never before in his life had he known that he could be so affected by what before he would have con- Well-Known Fiction Writer and Author of "THE DARK KNIGHT" sidered an unimportant event. But now it was important! He strode away through the crowd unseeingly, his heart bursting with its sudden ache. He tried to tell himself that he was being silly—was acting like a love-sick boy—but such mental abjurations relieved him no whit. Around the fire the throng of dancers had increased. They formed a dense, closely-packed mass of slowly swaying couples who moved as though in hypnotized rythmn to the throbbing, barbaric strains of the muted banjos. Welded together by the spell of the music, their emotions whipped to a froth of desire, they seemed to have forgotten everything, so engrossed were they in the ecstasy of the moment. 3 Carl watched them with bitter detachment, while in the back of his mind he was trying to decide what to do. He felt that he could do no good by staying, and yet he was loathe to go. He mulled the problem over in his mind, but came to no decision. Someone touched him on the arm, and Hotshot's cheery voice broke welcomely into his frenzied thoughts. "You looks like a lost sheep, Carl," the little man told him jovially. "What ails you?" Carl shrugged his shoulders. "Guess I'm just out of luck," he muttered drearily. "Cause why?" "Oh, Toto was to meet me here tonight." "An' she ain' here?" "Yes, she's here all right," Carl explained with bitter resentment, "but she's with Bogo over at the dice table." "Hush my mouf!" Hctshot exclaimed indignantly. "Guess I'll beat it on to my cabin." He faced his friend. "And I'm leaving in the morning!" "I hates to leave my Sally," Hotshot said with comic mournfulness, "but ef you goes I goes too, pardner!" "You're a brick, Hotshot," Carl cried, touched by his friend's loyalty, "but you mustn't leave here just because I do." "Say—lissen yere—why don' you go and ast Toto whut in tarnation she mean by doin' you like that?" Hotshot suggested. "An' ef that big boogie man starts sumpin' why we'll try his jaw!" Carl Plans Revenge Carl pondered the idea. It appealed to him because it would at least be better than slinking off like a whipped cur. "I got me a Smith and Wesson pistol, er ruther Sally's got one. You wait twill I runs down to my shack, and then we shows Bogo sompin!" Hotshot cried. Before Carl could halt him, he darted off eagerly through the crowd at a rapid pace. With a slow anger smouldering in him, Carl made his way back to the table, and pushed to a place, opposite where Bogo and Toto still stood engrossed in the game. Bogo was in possession of the dice, and he was winning hugely. His large, heavily lined face glistened with perspiration, and his loud laughter rang out triumphantly as he raked a pile of bills and silver into the mound of money in front of him. Toto looked up and saw Carl. She smiled quickly, and drooped one eye as though to say: "Business before pleasure," but she was nervous. Her agitation caused Bogo to glance up. The big man smiled in malicious triumph as he saw Carl's hurt face. He threw one of his tremendous arms around Toto and pulled her to him with an air of easy possession. Up and down the table men halted their gambling to watch this byplay. A whispered sibilance swept its length, and a faint air of tension caused the loud talk and cries to cease. "I see's we got de weigher present tonight," Bogo said with a clumsy attempt at cutting sarcasm, and loud enough to be heard by all at the table. "But I don' spects he come heah fo' to gamble," he added with a glance at the woman at his side. "Does you wants to shoot de bones?" the gamekeeper asked Carl respectfully. Enters the Game Carl's hand was in his pocket, and under the stress of his emotion he had closed it upon the tight wad of bills which represented his earn- Continued on Page Five SENTIMENT and SOCKS -By James A.

I had to, though I found it more difficult to do so every second. "Be careful of that right, kid," warned one of the seconds. "He hits like thunder with it. You been in luck so far. He flattened McKay with it last week." "Huh!" gasped Johnnie. "He did—" The minute was up and he had to go back again. From my point of view the fourth was a scorcher. And I guess Dorsey thought it was a bit torrid too. I can't say here just what Johnnie told me about it. My lad had decided to stop backing away while jabbing. He just rolled his body and ducked to avoid punishment and Dorsey uncorked some very unique feints and counters that surprised me and also gained my admiration. Several times Dorsey shook my lad with a delayed hook to the chin. He worked it like this: first he would start a jolt for the body then when flash-like my boy would cover he would raise it in the same motion and land flush on the jaw. It surprised and somewhat bewildered Johnnie. Still he would not be outdone. Johnnie's left would drop from its jabbing position and bring both of Dorsey's gloves down, then his right would flash fast and hard under his left to land on Dorsey's right jaw and an instant later banged with a sickening thud against the other jaw. And then—the infernal bell interfered with my ideas of what would have happened in another punch like that. "Now, just what McKay did this bird flatten?" Johnnie asked. "Why the lightweight champ. Ain't you heard about it?" replied the second as he closed the cut on Johnnie's chin. "Thanks!" Johnnie snapped as he pushed the seconds aside and gazed belligerently toward the opposite corner. For the first time I saw his fighting face. His eyes were mere slits, his lips formed a tightened line and his jaw seemed to protrude just a bit. He had been transformed in a word to an irresistible force. They sparred a bit at the beginning of the sixth. Dorsey feinted and would have fallen into a clinch, but Johnnie brought both hands into fast play and drove him off. Then his left shot out savagely and threw Dorsey's head back to just the right angle. Then followed a right that brought Johnnie to his toes as he delivered it to Henry's jaw. The fight was over. I was glad, and suffering from a few mixed emotions that cannot be explained. "You are the best little man in the world today!" I told him in his dressing room. "Now come, tell me what you were trying to find out while you were stalling around there." "You might laugh at me now. Guess I won't tell." He smiled drily. "I won't laugh—honest," I assured him. "I found out several things. First, Dorsey kept after my jaw; so I just reasoned it out that his jaw must not be so good," he replied. "Good!"

Waals Sige Don’t blame the children if they stay out late at night, use language to you that you would never have dared use to your parents, drink high- balls, or do any of those things that the younger generation seems to de- light in doing. Blame yourself. Your mother anc father would not allow you to de such things, and they saw to it that you did not do them. Probably you had a desire to start out as your son or daughter did, but stern parents held you in check. If you have failed to hold your children in check, blame yourself, in- stead of trying to place the blame on the children. You have failed as a parent. Oh! It hurts like sin to ad- mit it, but it is the truth in nine times out of ten, at least. Several million children of tender years 'are now living in America. Ten years hence they will either be the type of youth we have today or worse, or better. It is up to today’s parents, and not to the little tots, to decide which way they will go.

The following Anaiysis is for the week starting NOVEMBER 15th and ‘ending NOVEMBER ist. Persons born during this period are ruled by the planet “Mars.” They ‘are secretive, aggressive and possess active minds. Will power is present which enables them to exercise re- markable influence over others. They possess a magnetic power which al- most always attracts the opposite sex to them. From the hour of their birth they are equipped to rise to almost any height. - In club or social life Scorpio peo- 'E:- are brilliant talkers (when they get started) and are apt to go from one extreme to the other in a‘ most erratic and fanciful manner. Scor- ‘pio people seldem divulge their plans OF, secrets, for they fear that some- ‘ofte else may make use of them. | Scorpio people are usually attracted to enterprises and projects charac- terized by novelty, daring and uncer- ‘tainty, and their grit and determina- | tion impel them to take great chances end usually by so doing they over- come great obstacles and attain suc- cess in their ventures. Scorpio peo- ple have excellent taste in dress and are more impressed by actual worth than by mere lavish display. Persons born in this sign who live on the lower or animal plane, are liable to be greedy, cruel, vulgar and selfish, they should therefore elimi- nate these bad traits for their own betterment. Jealousy often takes possession of Scorpio persons, especially the wom- en, and when it does, it drives them to the verge of murderous frenzy. They are often suspicious of their mates which results in fault-finding and nagging, all of which causes un- happiness in their lives. These wo- men cause their husbands much an- moyauice and distress if the husband neglects the constant practice of flat- tery and praise which they crave. Two marriages usually occur in the lives of Scorpio subjects; and seldom does the Scorpio person really find happiness in marriage. These people are well fitted to gov- ernment positions, and the practice of surgery and medicine, They also display remarkable skill in the use of their hands and make excellent architects, house and floral decora- tors, ministers, musicians, politicians and writers. Persons born during this Zodiacal sign should guard their health care- fully between November 22nd and December 22nd; they should watch their steps wherever they go, as ac- cidents and personal injury are in- dicated during this period. The real fortunate date for Scorpio subjects is November 17th; this is an excellent date for signing papers, closing important deals or making important decisions. It is also an ex- cellent date for surgical operations. The fortunate day in the week is Tuesday, especially during the morn- ing hours. Astral colors are black, blue and red. The astral gems are amethyst and sardonyx. wae ; Next week Sagittarius (the Archer). Note: Mail in the Coupon and ob- tain a Horoscope. You will find it helpful in your every-day life.

When the gamekeeper spoke, Carl had a reckless urge to show the’ grin- ning dark giant that he could gam- ble, and show him that he didn’t care whether he had lost Toto or not. He wanted also in some way to hurt the woman who stood calmly across the table watching him with speculative eyes. | “Tll shoot thirty dollars,” he an- pouned looking straight into Bogo’s eyes. A gasp of astonishment went up from the players. “He's gonna shoot thutty bucks!” a man exclaimed incredulously. The size of Carl's stake silenced the braggart Bogo for an instant. Then realizing that he was a big winner and could afford to fade the amount, he threw the required sum across the table with a grand flour- ish. “Ah fades you, little boy,” he an- nounced grandiloquently. “An’ ah hopes you don’ crap out on de dice like you does wif de women!” The onlookers laughed appreciatively, al- though there were many who sym- pathized with Carl.

"Tain't nothing much," he began, but by the time he had finished I had learned that the lady in question could get the truth out of him when his mother could not. He told me of that last evening he had spent with her in Baltimore and how he had kept his whereabouts a secret until he became lonesome for her.

Then she came to see him box NO SECRET NOW Aspirin was originally a guarded mysterious secret, and was used only by a few physicians. Today aspirin is the most popular and most widely used of all medicines. The medical profession and public alike have learned that pure aspirin such as St.Joseph's Pure Aspirin is safe and effective for many ailments. No secret attaches to aspirin. It is included under its scientific name in the United States Pharmacopoea and St.Joseph's Pure Aspirin conforms in every particular to government standards. Thousands of people have learned there is no reason to pay more than ten cents for one dozen pure aspirin tablets and St.Joseph's Pure Aspirin is sold everywhere in convenient tins for ten cents for one dozen pure tablets of pure aspirin. It is generally known in medical circles that the manufacturers of St.Joseph's Pure Aspirin guarantee that it is as pure as money can buy. BEWARE THE COUGH FROM COLDS THAT HANG ON BEWARE THE COUGH FROM COLDS THAT HANG ON Coughs from colds may lead to serious trouble. You can stop them now with Creomulsion, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is a medical discovery with two-fold action; it soothes and heals the inflamed membranes and inhibits germ growth. Of all known drugs, creosote is recognized by high medical authorities as one of the greatest healing agencies for coughs from colds and bronchial irritations. Creomulsion contains, in addition to creosote, other healing elements which soothe and heal the inflamed membranes and stop the irritation, while the creosote goes on to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood, attacks the seat of the trouble and checks the growth of the germs. Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfactory in the treatment of coughs from colds, bronchitis and minor forms of bronchial irritations, and is excellent for building up the system after colds or flu. Money refunded if not relieved after taking according to directions. Ask your druggist. (adv.)

"There's no use of your feeling so badly about all that," I told him. "See, I knew you wouldn't understand," he chided me. "This girl and I are the best of friends and I don't want anything——" There was a great disturbance outside and amid it I could hear the high pitched voice of a woman. "Take your hands off of me!" she yelled at some one, "I'm going in and see for myself that he isn't hurt." A sudden start by Johnnie caused me to look at him. His eyes were fastened on the door. His hand brushed lightly over the cut jaw. Then a smile came across his lips and a twinkle in his eyes as he took his hat and started for the door. With his hand on the knob he bowed and in departing said: "You and I have been the best of friends. I thank you for all that you have done for me. I will see you later and try to make you understand." Then glancing around the room at the rest he grinned and said, "Well, good night, boys, see you later." And he was through the door and amid the cheers of those admirers who will gather after a fight is over. I had just gone to my rooms and was getting settled behind one of those celebration cigars, the kind we love so well but only smoke after something has happened to exceedingly please us. Then the phone rang. I let it ring a second time, when a knock came at the door. I opened the door first. I felt more like talking to some one near than at a distance. "How do you do? When I heard the phone ringing I had a fear that you had not returned yet." It was Ben, the person whom I had induced to promote the bout. He went on in his own progressive manner. "I was here before but you were not in. The clerk told me you had returned so I had him ring to tell you I was on my way up. Don't like to talk in lobbies, you know." "I really feel honored," I told him. "It is usually managers who go to the promoters." I would have offered him a seat but he was already in the easy chair in which I had intended to enjoy my cigar. "That tip you gave me about your boy was all right; but what leaked out about Dorsey putting McKay away was better. Was that your work?" Ben asked with a devilish twinkle in his eyes. "No. I did not know a thing until tonight." I informed him. "Maybe. But let me tell you this before it busts me open. That information got to the gamblers and made Dorsey a big favorite. Naturally, of course. Your boy had been champion of the South, but that did not mean much to them. Anyway, I took your word for what it was worth and placed a little on the short end." He reached in his pocket and produced a pack of bills. "Here," he went on, "is a little present for you and the boy. Only fifteen hundred, but it's half of my winnings on your tip." I was abashed. Ben had paid us our money when Johnnie entered the ring; but here he was giving us an unexpected bonus, as it were, from his profits. "I'm going to give this to the kld." I said with enthusiasm. "Oh, I didn't mean to insult you with such a paltry sum." Ben apologized, "I only meant to give you half of what I made on the tip."

I'm pleased, and it will be very encouraging to the boy." "Good! I got something to encourage him more than that." "What is it?" I asked eagerly for I could think of nothing better than money. "A chance for the lightweight championship of the world." "Lightweight championship! But my boy only weighs twenty-six." "Then he won't have to bother about the weight." "Can you get McKay to agree to that?" I asked. "Personally, I believe McKay would rather fight any man in the world than Dorsey. I'll tell him your boy is easy." Ben winked. "You talk it over with him nice and quiet like and I will get my boy to look at the pot of gold. Very few men have had a chance to step from the dark into a world's championship in two fights." "Guess that's all. But before I go let me tell you, that boy of yours is the class of them all at his weight. Good night." He was gone. It all seemed like a dream—a pleasant dream in which I wished to continue to drift. I counted the money then gave myself a shake to see if the fight was yet in the offing. Gosh, what a night! From salesman and manager of an unknown fighter to salesman and manager of the man who beat the man who had beaten the champion! It was all too good to last. Would it be when Johnnie climbed through the ropes to meet the champion? No, my friends, sooner, much sooner, than that. The next morning as I lay ruminating over the events of the night before, the phone rang and disturbed the pleasantness. "Yes. This is he." I answered. "Send him up." I finished. Two minutes later John Larkins stood before me. Until now there had been something admirable in his frank gaze. But now as he stood there looking, not at me, but past me, I sensed something wrong. "What is it, boy? Say it." I broke the silence. "It's nothing but this." He replied pushing toward me the morning paper. I took it and read the lines over the fight. Then the paragraphs that followed. "They don't do you justice." I offered as I was in the act of returning the paper. "I don't mean the fight," he grumbled. "Look over in the fourth column." I did. Ben had not lost a minute in starting paper work for what he thought would surely be Larkins's next bout. There was a column devoted to the wonderful work of my boy and its text was a neat and undeniable challenge to the lightweight champion of the world, McKay. "That's good." I said when I had finished. "All you have to do now is to keep in condition and you will be the second man to 'bring home the bacon to Baltimore.'" "When I was a kid, I had but one purpose in life and that was to beat the man who had beaten Gans. Later that aim grew to be, beat any man who had beaten a champion. Last night I did that. Now I am through with the boxing game from a competitive angle." His voice, though soft, rang with the note of finality. "Surely you don't intend to let this opportunity of fame and fortune to slip through your fingers!" I urged "Just think. One night's work and you will be a champion who can demand what you want for a fight. Your friends will be proud of you." The craftiness left his eyes and he gazed at me honestly. "I promised you one fight. I have given it and given my best in it. You should be satisfied. There are others to be considered now." As he finished my thoughts leaped back to his mother who wanted him to be a gentleman and the girl who had come to see him. "Then for the sake of those others fight the champion and win. They will be much better off with a few thousand more. They will be proud to know that you can conquer any man in the world at your weight. Think, Johnnie, think! Fame and fortune await you!" A supercilious smile, almost a sneer, came to his lips. "I thought it all over before I accepted your offer to fight last night. I needed the money then. I have it now.

I will lose more than money can ever replace," he replied calmly. "There is but one thing money cannot buy—health," I assured him. "You have omitted the greatest thing in the world—Love!" Johnnie spoke like a Romeo. "No." I agreed, "But a true love is lasting and will live though you are a fighter for a few months longer." "Yes. But a true love will not offend its beloved," he came back softly. "Your case is hopeless. Still if you decide to fight before you are too old, just let me know. By the way! Here is a little present for you from the promoter." I handed him the money Ben had given me. "Thanks. But I don't understand why I should be given a present after I have been paid once." He was still holding the money in the position he had taken it. "I felt that way about it. But Big Ben brought it in last night and gave it to me. Now I am giving it to you because a fighter who won't fight may need it before long." I played my last card. "Never mind that," he half laughed—I had lost. "We will divide this and part good friends." "No. I don't want any of the money," I protested, "But we can still be good friends. Here's my hand on it." We shook hands and he left me gazing at a closed door and thinking. Thinking how this lad, in whom was the mukings of the greatest fighter the world had ever seen, had allowed sentiment to interfere with the career ever place," he replied calmly. and beloved boxer.

Brent, bachelor writer. That this was so I was inclined to believe, for I had a vague feeling that I had recently read a critic’s comment on a book I had written, which, it seemed to me, had been published on August 8, A.D. 2030. With this fact established, an ex- hilarating feeling of ecstasy possessed me, Perhaps I was by now a bit out of my head; yet I reasoned that if my findings were correct, I should, by all reasonable deductions, be in the sleeping chamber of my Phila- delphia apartment, and further, I should very soon arise and partake of the breakfast prepared by my manservant, Bennett— “you're dreaming, fellow,” groaned over and over again to my- self; “you're not really bound hand ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—November 15, 1930 and foet, not actually imprisoned in a darkened cell; but merely in the clutches of a hideous nightmare!” A yearning to snap out of it surged through me. This feeling that my mind was imprisoned in that half- world between consciousness and un- consciousness persisted doggedly. I ‘cannot swear to this, but I imagined ‘that my dark brown face was masked in a most idiotic grin. Or perhaps I was groaning, or yelling—I do not know, I do know, however, that with a deep inhale I called at the top of my voice: “Bennett!”—again and again, like a drowning person calling for help. z This sort of thing must have con- tinued for some time. Gradually a great fear came over me. Finally 1 was in a gripping panic. For no soft footsteps had fallen on my anx- ious ears; no quiet opening of a door; no well-mannered masculine voice wreeted me with “Good morning, Mr. Brent. You will find your bath drawn, sir. And you will breakfast here?” - Unwilling to believe the worst, I lay very still, mumbling feverishly, and when a voice did finally come to me, the realization that it did not belong to my man sent a chill along my spine. Yet, it was a familiar voice, ‘one that pierced my memory like a sharp knife. Born of consterna- tion, it exclaimed: “Great guns! ‘Brent has gone mad!” T closed my eyes and groaned. Yes, I remembered. The hugeness of it sent me rolling over on my left side again like a suddenly released log! For one wild momert I lay there staring at the three scarcely visibly dark forms on the floor, and then, and only then, did I resign myself te Tae fact I was a member of H. Ss. ‘Turrier’s secret expedition to the planet of Mars, that the three figures ‘stretched out on the floor were: Mr. ‘Turner, F, H, Heaton and R. H. ‘Brown—all eminent Negro scientists. Neither of us uttered a word, In- ‘deed, we didn’t have time, for just Be that moment there came from somewhere beyond those stone walls, loud outbursts of merriment mingled with a barrage of interchanges, words, and then, light, hollow-sound- ing footsteps which unmistakably, were drawing nearer. I exclaimed to my companions: “Did you hear that, men? DID YOU ‘HEAR THAT? It was the language of Earth! ... Why, we're not on Mars at all!” Mr. Turner countered: “An impos- sibility, Brent. I tell you, my calcu- lations did not miscarry! We're on the planet of Mars, men! I'd stake my reputation on that!” Mr, Brown interrupted: “But the noises... . they sound familiar, like the workaday progress of a great city!” “Quiet so,” Turner shot back. “But listen closer! Not once will you hear the siren of a motor!” Mr. Heaton, too, would have said something but his words smothered themselves, and, as if by command, the four of us lay suddenly very still. The footsteps had suddenly ceased. In their place came a metallic. noise as of the drawing of heavy bars, and | <n e é Os Po etl aden Sn Over re 80 Years fof Effective Use for BLADDER and KIDNEY TROUBLE As all drug stores H, PLANTEN & SON, INC. 2 93 Henry Street B'klya, N. Y, 2° 1 then the next instant a door swung open and a huge shaft of light streamed into the cell-like room, for a moment blinding us. Four small figures advanced into the room. At first, they looked like mere children, they were so small; but then our vision cleared and we |beheld four fiendish little black faces. ‘They were down at us like four black ghosts—mere slits for lips, drawn apart in cut-throat grins, tiny black eyes sunk deep into their. heads, huge, protruding ears, long beaky noses, and their small bodies covered from \shoulders to ankles with what we of earth would call robes—thick, grey- looking material. And clutched in four huge fists were four dangerous- looking dirk-like knives—which they bent and flourished threateningly over our heads! We were speechless, Such weird |faces earthly man had never before jseen! Suddenly one of them straight- ened up and stepped backwards, laughing devilishly, and it was then that I cursed. The others brandished their evil-looking knives even more recklessly as their laughing compan- fon began talking in rapid gasps. “Reptiles of Pragus!” he virtually screamed in our faces. “You would enter the kingdom of Els against the |wish of the Great One. You would |spy—" | “Pragus?” It was Mr. Turner. In the |bright light his eyes were ablaze. |Vainly he was, like the rest of us, trying to free himself from-his bonds. |We're not Pragians,” he shouted in jexasperation; “we're from Earth, I |tell you—” “Earth?” Their faces were the pic- tures of confusion. “Earth? What means that?” exclaimed the ugliest jone, and Mr. Turner would have jtalked on but at that moment one jof the queer creatures bent down and delivered a terrific blow on our com- rade’s face, flattening him out in a daze. “Beware! It is a Pragian trap!” this one warned his queer-looking companions, spitting. “It be so!” agreed another of them. Then: “Render them free, Igy. The Great One would have them brought to the palace of Kay. Ha!—soon they shall go the way of all sneaking Pragians! Ere the fiery sphere in |the sky sleep, they shall be cast to the demons!” The one called Igy did so. One by one, with our swollen wrists and ankles freed, we staggered to our feet, Mr. Turner staggered back a- gainst the wall and leaned’ there, and I saw that his jaw was bleeding pro- fusely. The little black imps brandished their knives and the leader of them commanded us to lead the way out into what appeared to be a passage- way, and I saw red. Never in all of my thirty years had I been so an- gry—and frightened! Sensing this perhaps, the one called Igy emitted a whoop and glared at me, Again I saw red. And then the ugly one charged ori me with arm raised to strike my heart out, but as he closed in I caught his wrist and wrenched it until he howled. His knife fell clattering to the floor, and my right fist shot out with all the strength in my weakened body! He caught it square on the chin, and he went hurtling backwards like a little drunk. Two more of the devils growled and rushed on me, I jumped clear and they crashed into the wall. “Igy! Hubicon! Grajoce!” The fourth one rushed to the door to block our way, knife raised, “What say the Great One?” he bellowed, keeping his eyes on us. “Are we sent to prick His wrath? I say, let us be gone with these spying Pragians to the palace of Kay—” He said a lot more, but at that moment, just as I was about to rush the devils again, my three scientist- companions in this adventure rushed on me and throttled me to the floor, Mr. Turner gasping, “Don't be a fool, Brent!” Blind now with fury, with one Witori, Senen tT gent them tmnt | 7 one screamed and a great mountain of living flesh and bones piled on top of me! eee Were we really on the planet of Mars? __ If so, how can the presence of the ‘English language be explained? | Who are the Pragians and what is ‘the kingdom of Els? _ Who is the Great One? | The next time, my friends. . ——— END OF PART ONE Washington ‘Salad (Serves 6) Cheese straws % cup chopped celery ‘% cup artichoke hearts, chopped % cup orange pulp ‘% cup diced grapefruit pulp French dressing Mayonnaise Pile cheese straws in log cabin fashion, on a large plate, leaving a center space sufficient to hold the salad, Mix celery, artichokes, oranges and grapefruit pulp with French dressing.

WHITE LAUGHTER "MY SKIN ROBBED ME OF THE JOY OF LIVING" to shun me and nobody ever wanted to be with me.

I walked inside, bought a box of Ointment and Soap, went home and started using them according to directions. OVERNIGHT, I HAD A SMOOTH, CLEAR, LIGHT SKIN "Believe me when I tell you that almost from the very first I saw a big improvement. My skin soon became light, soft, and fine; my complexion cleared up as if by magic and soon the people I knew were taking notice of my greatly improved com- The original and genuine Black and White Ointment and Skin Soap is made exclusively by the Black and White Company of Chicago 8 Continued from Page Five Bogo cursed vindictively, casting malevolent glances at Carl. Someone touched Carl softly on the arm. It was Elmira. "Shoot f' me, daddy," she cried loud enough for Toto to hear. The girl, seeing Toto with Bogo, figured that she now would be unable to interfere. Carl scarcely noticed her. Toto's eyes clouded, then narowed furiously. "What you shoot now, Carl?" the gamekeeper asked in something approaching awe. "I shoot all of it—one hundred and twenty dollars," Carl replied calmly, while his glance challenged the sullen Bogo. The dark giant's glance wavered, then fell to the table. A loud gust of talk broke the tenseness. "Bogo ain't gonna fade all that money," someone exclaimed provocatively. As though in answer, Bogo pushed his pile of money to the center of the table. "Ah fades what I got!" he growled defiantly. Just as Carl shook the dice, there was a sudden commotion at his side, then a screech. He glanced around in time to see Toto yank Elmira away from him, then, as he cast the dice, Toto was at his side breathing rapidly, but smiling at him. "I tried to tell you that I was with Bogo for a purpose," she whispered. "Now hurry up and break him so we can be together!" Carl. the Winner This time Carl threw the numbered bones across the table, and when they stopped they were directly in front of Bogo. One of them had the figure "1" uppermost, and the other, two rows of trees. For a tense interval Bogo glared speechless at Carl. Overhead the black sky burst asunder with a sudden, terrific clap of thunder, and a jagged, brilliant streak of lightning leaped across the heavens. Obeying some impulse, Carl tossed a few crumpled bills to the vanquished giant with a gesture of calculated insolence. The tables were now turned with a vengeance. In front of Carl was the mound of money which had been Bogo's a few short minutes since, and by Carl's side the lovely Toto stood with the air of one who has the full right and desire. The onlookers could almost see the slow working of Bogo's mind; and they could sense from his increasingly tense manner that something was about to happen. A few of the more timid left the table hurriedly, and the others gave way around the two principals. As the small wad of money struck in front of him, Bogo swept it from the table with a furious blow. His small, evil eyes gleamed malevolently, and the heavy muscles o f this huge jaw grew rock-like under the force of his passion. He gripped the table with both his hands while his breath came in guttural sobs. Suddenly he bellowed like an enraged bull, and knocking people from his path ruthlessly, he started around the table toward Carl, mouting in coherent curses and threats. Carl had not thought beyond the moment of his triumph, and now with the somewhat fearsome spectacle of the dark giant rushing toward him, he had no definite thought as to how to defend himself. He felt something cold being slipped into his hand, and heard Toto's calm voice saying: "Use my switch blade, baby. Don't let that big devil hurt you!" Carl and Bogo Clash As though on cue, the thunder pealed again, and reverberated like the insistent blasting of cannon. An abrupt shower of cold rain swished downward, and then the heavens seemed to open, pouring forth wind and water in terrible fury. Bogo did not hesitate. It is doubtful that he even realized anything beyond his grim desire to get his huge hands on Carl, who had now retreated a little from the table toward a clearer space. The two men met just as a particularly brilliant flash of lightning made the scronch circle alive with its peculiar green radiance that set forth every object with startling distinctness. Bogo swung one of his heavy hands at Carl's head, but the latter side-stepped, and backed away. Bogo followed with relentless ferocity, flailing with mighty blows at his elusive opponent. By the intermittent flashes of lightning the two men moved around, one with eager clumsiness, and the other with wary cautiousness. Carl was rapidly losing his breath, and the ground had grown slippery, so that he feared that he would fall, in which event his stronger enemy would throttle him, and perhaps live up to his threat of breaking every bone in his body. ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—November 15, 1930 THE MIRROR Genuine BLACK AND WHITE OINTMENT FOR DARK FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY COMMONER SKIN DISF MES CLEARS THE COMPLEX Again Bogo lunged in. Something seemed to flash over Carl like a hot flood. He forgot who he was, where he was, and even what he was fighting about. All he remembered was the primitive urge to protect himself from an onrushing, savage enemy. As the bigger man lumbered toward him his arm flashed out like the lashing of a snake's tongue. The knife in his hand reached its mark, but Bogo seemed not to notice. He still came tearing in, in unabated fury. Again the knife in Carl's hand flashed out—this time with more power behind it—and again it found its mark. Again, and again, and again, to shun me and no fellows taking the home, gaze into other girls. I FOUND "Then one day saw in the window which was guaran inside, bought a bo ing to directions.

Centuries of civilization fell away from him like leaves before a storm. He stood, half-crouching, his knife raised above him, poised to deal the death blow. Had he been able to see himself he would not have recognized the twisted, snarling face as his own. Through the mist of his flaming emotion a soft but compelling voice penetrated like a dash of icy water. "Carl," it said insistently. "Carl, you've almost killed him. Don't stab him again!" Slowly the man's murderous desire ebbed out of him. His arm dropped WILLIAM T. SMITH He was suddenly cognizant of what he was about to do—or perhaps already had done, and a wave of nausea swept over him, causing him to reel blindly. Toto took his arm tenderly, as a mother might have taken the arm of a sick child, and led him slowly through the woods. "Jus' lean on me, honey lamb," she begged, "We're going home. Toto's taking her baby home . . .." The future for Carl and Toto seems clear now. But see the next installment!
