ADVANCEMENT COLORED PEOPLE Will be Large Asset to Association in Its Work on Field New York, Jan. 31—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, announces that William Pickens has resigned as dean of Morgan College to join the association's staff and will devote his entire time to the organization of Negroes throughout the United States. No orator of the race is so well known to colored Americans as Mr. Pickens. Native of Anderson county, South Carolina, where he was born in 1881, he migrated to Arkansas with his parents in 1888 and entered the schools of North Little Rock in 1901 His oratorical ability was manifest at an early age as he was valedictorian of his class in the Union High School of Little Rock. During his career in Talladega College, Alabama, he led in all his studies and won a number of oratorical and literary prizes. Upon his being graduated from Talladega, Mr. Pickens entered Yale University in 1902 and here, in a class of 200 men, he captured one of that institution's most coveted honors, the Henry James Ten Lyk Oratorical Prize. He was also elected to America's foremost honorary society among college men, Phi Beta Kappa, and was graduated from Yale in the highest rank of his class, delivering the Philosophical Oration. From the time of his graduation From Yale, in 1904, until he joined the staff of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in 1920, Mr. Pickens devoted himself to teaching. He was teacher of languages at Talladega College and Prof.-or of Greek and Sociology at Wiley University, Texas, becoming dean of Morgan College in 1915. In the year 1915 Mr. Pickens interrupted his academic career to travel in Europe. With his election as vice president of Morgan College in 1918, Mr. Pickens established a record as the first of his race to hold that office and the office of dean also. The record of Mr. Pickens' service his race is a long and a varied one. He was a member of the Niagara Movement and with J. E. Spingarn he started the movement in Louisville, Kentucky, which resulted in the decision of the United States Supreme Court against segregation in American cities. When he became dean of Morgan College the plant consisted of one building on a fraction of an acre. He leaves it, after five years, with a dozen buildings and 54 acres in the city of Baltimore and with great promise of a bright future. During the war Mr. Pickens was instrumental, together with Major Spin-garn, in organizing the movement for a colored officers' training camp and the result was the first of such camp at Des Moines, Iowa. He was in addition a member of the colored section of the Maryland Council of Defense. The National Association for the Ad-ancement of Colored People announces that Mr. Pickens is to have the title of Associate Field Secretary.

Everything Ready Morehouse Recital Everything Ready Morehouse Recital A RECORD CROWD EXPECTED AT THE AUDIORIUM Members of Club to Appear at Churches Day Before Recital Indications seem to foretell one of the largest gatherings at the appearance of the Morehouse College Glee Club and Orchestra that has ever heard these celebrated artists. They will be here Monday night, February, 16th The church workers are taking the lead not alone for the charitable and worthy cause for which the musical is given but because Morehouse College is a notable child of the church, True, it is not connected with the Baptist church, but the Baptists organized the institution and supported it through thick and thin watching over and protecting the school until it was strong enough to go for itself, without official connection with the nomination, such a course being advantageous from a financial viewpoint. Morehouse should be of exceptional interest to us at this time because it is a demonstration of accomplishment and refinement of character, to disprove the theories born of race prejudice held so vividly before us by our adversaries. It is at these exhibitions of race progress that we receive new courage and enthusiasm to fight life's battles. And, too, your presence is an encouragement to the young performers and their college, it is in a way an endorsement of their work. It is our duty, and from the report of these handling tickets it will surely be done, to make this engagement surpass anything of its kind previously given in the municipal auditorium. Tickets are now on sale at The Torgery Shop, 504 West Broad, near Gatton, where diagrams may be seen by person who wish to buy reserved seats. Several community and church workers interested in the movement are also selling tickets. Anyone who buys a reserved seat from a ticket seller may go to the Torgery and select their seat by diagram, or select their seat at the auditorium any time during the day of the performance, Monday Feb. 16. The Morehouse organization consists of twenty-five student musicians, led by the well-known Kemper Harrell, violinist, who has been heard on several occasions. The program which they render is both instrumental and vocal. It is the leading student musical aggregation of Georgia, and has had excellent training. Among them are several local boys, one of them, Mr. Wm. G. Tyson, son of Dr. and M. C. B. Tyson, who is numbered among the violinists. Aside from the renditions of the students, Mr. Harrell will doubtless appear in several numbers. BRUNSWICK GA. NEWS Mr. E. W.

SATURDAY FEB. 7th, 1920 LOCAL COMPANY TO MANUFACTURE BEAUTY PRODUCTS The Southern Beauty Products Concern, organized by leading Savannahans, to manufacture and distribute a full line of beauty products, cosmetics and perfumes, as well as to conduct a training course for hair growing, messaging and general body beautifying, will open its doors to the trade of Savannah and the entire southeast on next Monday. The opening will be held at the parlor and sales rooms of the company, Wage Earners Block, West Broad street, Monday afternoon. Refreshments will be served, and the public is cordially invited to inspect the well-appointed beauty, parlor and the several lines of supplies which will be carried in stock. This company, will feature its own line of goods, compounded from its carefully developed recipes and formulas, and the celebrated "Gloria" line, possessing a rare merit and a high quality, will make a splendid showing among other competing lines in this section. This company claims to have the very best preparation for growing hair, stimulating unhealthy hair, preventing falling and breaking hair and growing hair on bal places ever, placed upward the market. This recipe or formula, as well as that for softening and brightening the skin, has been prepared by an eminent specialist on skin diseases living in the far Northwest, after the most careful and painstaking study and experimentation covering many years. These two remedies were procured almost accidently by a member of the local company from the celebrated founder, his friend of years ago. The remedies were never on the market and have only been used in private practice on the Pacific coast. These will doubtless make a strong showing. There are fourteen distinct products in the "Gloria" line, including creams, shampoos, perfumes, face powders and soaps, highly meritorious, containing the beneficial qualities of the grower and the bleach, and delicately scented with locust buds, lilac and other exquisite odors. The lines are very nearly complete. The Gloria School of Hair and Beauty Culture provides a residence course of study of three weeks, the course being both theoretical and practical. The lessons and lectures are supplemented by practical demonstrations on subjects brought before the pupils. The courses of study are printed and written examinations are required. At the end of the course, the "Gloria College" diploma is awarded. The course of study can also be given by correspondence, to such persons as find it unable to come to Savannah; the time required to complete the courses, in this case, owing to mailing the lectures and lessons, returning the corrected examinations and other correspondence, will be six weeks. In all respects, however, this work is as effective as that done in residence. The local offices and parlors of the new company are fitted up with the very latest and most improved beauty parlor equipment, including chairs specially constructed for beauty parlor work, automatic drying machines, violet-ray machine for treating diseased scalp and skin, and all sanitary accessories to the modern update business. Those promoting the new concern include: Mrs. Stimpkins, Mrs. Seabook R. A. Harper, J. H. Doyle, A. B. Singfield, Nathan Roberts, Rufus Baker, E. H. Burke, G. H. Haywood, T. McPherson, J. G. Lemon and others. OPPORTUNITY MAKES NEGRO NATION'S VALUABLE ASSET (Assn. Negro Press) Newark, N. J., Feb. 3rd. Inter-racial co-operation was the keynote of an address by Dean William Pickens of Morgan College, Baltimore, before the third annual meeting of the New Jersey Urban League for social service among Negroes at the First Presbyterian church. Assisting that a wrong impression of the American colored race had been created due to the propensity of many newspapers to link them with crime, Dean Pickens said: "It is impossible to state facts and do it most viciously, and the newspapers have created a false impression of the black man, many by identifying him with, crime wherever possible. If John Smith commits a crime and he happens to be a colored man, they print in the headlines, "Negro Commits Crime," They don't say, "John Smith Commits Crime." It wasn't the Negro who committed the crime; it was a criminal, and a criminal might be white or black. They don't identify red-headed criminals in the headlines by the color of their hair. Why should they identify colored criminals by the color of their skin?" Dean Pickens said the Negro is the white man's best industrial ally, and that the war has set him one hundred years ahead in that respect. "The bar sinister of color," he said, "did more to set back the community than anything, and in evidence of this he said the deplorable telephone service during the war could have been averted by utilizing the intelligent colored orators available, but he added, "they would rather wait until the whole white race was eliminated before they would call upon the other race." If the Negro were given the same opportunities to become educated as other citizens, Dean Pickens said, he would become a great asset to the nation, because, unlike the natives of many foreign lands who come here, he wants to make his habits and mode of living the same as the whitman's. NEGRO 112 YEARS, OLDEST PERSON IN VIRGINIA Litray, Va.; Peb.,Jesse B. Martin, census enumerator for this place, has discovered perhaps the oldest person in Virginia. He is Frank Veney, a colored man who says he was born in 1501. Persons living in Page county say it is known that Veney was a man of perhaps 40 years of age in 1849, this being the year in which the New Market Sperrillie turnpike was built. During the construction of this highway Veney was a blacksmith and kept in repair tools used on the roads. This would make him between 110 and 112. The veteran is still the picture of health, his long, flowing white locks attesting his great age. The old man says he remember distinctly when, as a boy, he was one of a shipload of Negroes who embarked from some foreign port. He says he landed in New York and that the cold weather caused him to come south. He finally arrived in Mississippi. In later years, he says he met Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederacy. As wore on, Veney made his way to Virginia, marrying a woman in this country. He has been married five times, he says, and his last wife is still living in Massachusetts. WAYCROSS, GA.

SATURDAY FEB. 7th, 1920 ABOLISHING THE HACK STANDS The abolishing of the hack stands about the city streets and near the hotels, will do very little to reduce and remove the vice conditions in our city. It will, on the other hand, work a severe hardship on a large number of men who have been in the hacking business as a life work for many years. It will take that business an place in the hands of a small group of stronger men who have the money and the organizing capacity to qualify under the new arrangement. Houses of ill-repute and the liquor traffic, which are more directly related to debauching the youth of our city, will not be disturbed by this removal of the hack stands. These institutions, which are well known in Savannah, can be abolished if gone at vigorously and kept at by the police, and the hacking business, which is on its face, at least, a perfectly honorable and legitimate business, can be continued with convenience and safety to the public. The public welfare is as much dependent upon the conveniences provided by hacks as it is upon the removal of vice. The location of hacking vehicles near the railroad stations is a great time-saver to busy men and a great convenience to traveling women and children, and for this reason should be allowed to remain, under regulation, of course. And because the relation between the hacking business and promotion of vice, is so indirect, and the direct spots of vice are so much easier to get at, it seems rank discrimination to remove all classes of hackmen summarily. Then there can be no way of reducing the harm which hacking brings into the matter by throwing all the hacking business into the hands of stronger men. The same chauffeurs will be used, and perhaps those most skilled at "turning tricks" will get the employment offered by the garage-men. It would seem, then, more proper to regulate the matter of commissioning and licensing chauffeurs and drivers by keeping licences from those who have police records and placing them in the hands of those who, because of their faultless records and long years in the business, could qualify for the license. This, and this only, would aim directly at eliminating the harm which hacking brings to the vice situation. The mayor, as well as the ladies of the Federation whom he refused to confer with, has, no doubt, gone thoroughly into this matter of the backs, but they have failed to see that the direct agencies of vice have induced and drawn the hacking business into the situation to aggravate and increase it. Now if these places of vice and the illicit traffic which make hacks necessary and essential should be broken up, the hacking business would remain to accommodate and convenience legitimate travel. Whereas, if the mayor and council persist in removing all individual hackmen from the streets, many will be deprived of their chosen way of earning a living, the favored few will get all the business, and vice conditions will be no better. There are many places of vice, located in Negro districts. The mayor and chief of police have been appraised of these by a committee of Negro citizens representing the schools and churches and business places, but these have remained. The policy of removing the hackstands looks more like attacking the vice problem from the wrong angle. Let us not go contrary to the principle of fair play to all hackmen, defeat the conveniences of the law-abiding public, while we can accomplish the good we desire by attacking the illegitimate practices themselves. We hope the hackmen who have kept the law and who have not been guilty of aiding and abetting vice, will contest any summary over-riding of their right to do a legitimate business. We have the vice, itself, let's attack that, and not some so-called agent for facilitating it. THE FUJ IN OUR MIDST THE FLU IN OUR MIDST .... We are happy to have sounded the little warning of caution against unnecessary exposure to disease and to all the conditions which cause it, for it would seem that Savannah, along with less fortunate cities, must come in for a small siege of "fin," too. Already, the yellow cards bearing black letters are being put up on many doors, warning callers, visitors and others that "Influenza" is present in the house, is communicable and that whoever enters is liable to become a victim. The city health officer, Dr. Brunner, says there is no cause for alarm, and that a judicious handling of the situation will spare us the awful ravages which have been visited upon some of our sister cities. But the whole city needs to cooperate and "pull foeteller" in this movement to keep the epidemic down and under control. The schools, churches, theaters, lodges and other places of large congregating will need to be most careful, because large gatherings are prolific sources of the spread of the disease. Parents can do a whole lot to prevent trouble in the schools by cautioning their children to guard themselves against unnecessary contact with other children, and by removing their own children as soon as they may be suspected of being ill. This will keep the schools open and save the children, too. We must all take account of this situation, seriously and vigorously, and save ourselves the many inconveniences we experienced a year ago, as well as countless unnecessary troubles, expenses and sufferings. STREET TAX AND REGISTRATION Nearly twenty thousand men have registr'd for the new street tax which will be levied by the city this year. And this number includes very nearly all the male population, between the ages of twenty-one and sixty; so that it would seem that all the people, black and white, have willingly acquiesced in this latest method of increasing the city's necessary revenues. Some of the labor organizations and other unions, among the white group of the population, are taking occasion to stress the matter of registration among their white male eligibles, and the campaign is resulting in the registration of a great many who, but for the compulsory street tax, would not have had their minds turned upon civic duty and responsibility at all. Many men have registered as a result of agitation inside these organizations. One of the leading newspapers of the south, published at Atlanta, recently carried a leading article, in which it appealed to the white men of the south to see to it that every white man was counted by the census enumerators, urging that every white man was responsible to his government for the performance of certain duties in consideration of the privileges and protection he enjoyed, and that each man owed it to his government to have himself counted on its roll, so that the great government could know just what it had to depend upon in the way of man power. The article also urged upon these men to register, calling attention to the fact that this is a big year in national politics and that great issues and questions were before the matron for decision this year. Now, a great many of these thousands who have registered for the street tax are Negro men. They must have registered in such large numbers because obedience to the ordinance was compulsory and carried a penalty for non-compliance. We have been literally driven to do our duty in this case, and we have done it. Now the payment of the poll tax is just as obligatory and just as compulsory. We have been just as guilty of violating the laws of our government when we fail to pay it, as when we have failed to pay the street tax. The theory, through, is just the same regarding both taxations. There is one difference, however. The officers, tax-collectors and others are not forcing Negroes to pay the poll tax, although it is their duty to do so. They are charged with collecting the revenues, and should collect all, and from everybody. But they do not press Negroes to pay their poll taxes because they realize that this tax involves the right to register and vote, and they do not care to arouse the Negro from his sleep on this. They prefer to let him "sleep on." They know that if he is aroused, required to pay the poll tax, that he will register, insist upon his right to vote, the white primary, notwithstanding, and emphasize the wrong of disfranchisement. They know it would be an embarrassing looking thing if they should have several thousand Negroes qualified to vote but not being allowed by local machinery to exercise that citizenship right. They know it would come to the attention of thosemen in Congress who are now seeking to cut down southern representation there to the basis of actual voters in the south. And they do not wish this, so they are content to let the Negro sleep. Why cannot we awake of our own record? Several hundred have registered during the past few months here. The attaches, who have hitherto been refusing and giving trouble, are giving less now. Why do not the ministers, the presidents of social and fraternal organizations, in Savannah, make this serious matter the "regular order of business" on some meeting night, soon, before it istoo late? Why not, at that time, arrange to arouse every member to register? Why not provide a plan for carrying them to the tax office, paying up the account, whatever it is, and getting on the lists? We have been made to do our duty and pay up our debt to the government (the city in this case) in the matter of the street tax. We owe a debt of just as great honor and dignity to the state in this matter of poll tax, and we should come forward like children and hand the money over. I is also the duty of the tax-gatherers to collect it, but whether he calls on us for it or not, we should be glad to pay it over, because the sacred rights and privileges of manhood, citizen-ben and freedom are so closely intertwined with this particular tax, and through this tax and the rights it off the yoke of oppression and discuses, alone, can we ever hope to thru-crimination we are bearing. Miss Elizabeth Sellers The whole community, as well as the friends of Miss Ellizabeth Sellers was shocked last Thursday afternoon, January 29th, to team of her death. She had been in poor health all during last fall, but her determination to get well coupled with her strong constitution gave her power to rally from time to time. The end came suddenly at the city hospital following an operation for appendicitis from which she seemed to be slowly recovering during the eight days she was there up until the very day on which she died. She was one of our promising young women. She was one of the most popular of our public school teachers having served creditably at Risley THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY FEB. 7th, 1920 school from the fall of 1918 up to the time she was forced to give up. The young, being only twenty-two years of age, she had proven herself to be a useful member of the community, lending a helping hand wherever she could to comfort and uplift. By her sweet and lovable disposition, she endeared herself to all who knew her. Her funeral took place at St. Athanasius P. E. church on Saturday afternoon, January 31, the Rev. Fr. Lewis, officiating. The simple burial service was impressive. Father Lewis spoke touchingly of the life of the deceased and testified to her life and Christian character. The floral designs were many and beautiful. A most fitting testimony of her worth was the fact of the very large attendance at the funeral service.

Big Bag of Prizes to be Given by Uncle Sam You school boys and girls, who are today learning your readin' 'writin' and 'ruthmetic' and a whole lot of things besides, will have a prize package opened for you on May 5, the biggest prize package ever wrapped up for the school children of America. It is Uncle Sam's package of prizes that will be given to the children who on Feb. 20 write the hot essays on the subject "What are the Benefits of an Enlistment in the United States Army?" And there are enough prizes, of all sorts, kinds and sizes, in this big, wonderful packages, to give one to every boy and girl who writes an interesting composition. Right on the top of this package are the three medals which Secretary of War Baker will present to the three children writing the best essay in the whole Unite States. But all the rest of the package is stuffed, until its sides are bursting with other prizes which have been donated by people in every town, city, county and state in America—more gold medals, loving curl, pianos, watches, dolls, dresses, suits of clothes, shoes, hats, phonographs, kodaks, candy, ice cream and more things than we could ever hope to tell about. What must you do in order to win one of these prizes in Uncle Sam's package? Listen, it's easy. First of all, go to dad, mother, or brother, or teacher, and ask'em to tell you all they know about the army, what it is doing to educate the young men in the ranks, how it is teaching them useful trades, how it is working to make every soldier a real American citizen and how it is given them the opportunity to see the sights in Panama, Hawaii, Alaska, the Philippines, China and other parts of our great big world. Of course it doesn't make any difference where you get your facts about this new army of ours that you will put into your essay on Feb. 20. Perhaps you may want to ask Uncle Sam's recruiting officer, right in your own district, for this information. If you do either go to him in person, or write to him. One way is as god as another. The recruiting officer will be only too glad to tell you all he knows about the Army. Our army today is a great big thing. There are fourteen different branches in it and before you sit down on Feb. 20 to write your essay you ought to know something about each one of these branches. There's the Infantry branch for one, that branch of our army in which the soldier boys fight with shiny rifles and bayonets, dig themselves into the ground with tiny shovels that they carry on their backs when the shells begin falling, and capture and hold the ground of the enemy.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS The examinations for the first semester of the Ga., State College are over. Many of the students stood well, some, however, fell by the way side. At the conclusion of the examinations, the students were given a valuable talk by the president of the school school, in which he stressed the reading of good books, becoming acquainted not only with standard authors, but with the writings of colored authors and with the history of the Negro race. Among the students at the school are several ministers who are in charge of churches, some of them having two or more charges. The school has always favored ministers and a number of them have completed its course of study, among them the Rev. m. Gray, pastor of St. John Baptist church and president of the Baptist Ministers' Union. Among other of the prominent graduates of the school in Savannah are Dr. W. H. Harris, Dr. H. M. Collier and Dr. Archibald Tompkins. Work on the main school building is progressing nicely under the direction of Superintendent L. B.

To whom it may concern: This is to-certify that all railroad men of all crafts are invited to take notice that a great reconstruction is near at hand which should cause all railroad men to consider that they must get organized to maintain such jobs as they now have as very soon the railroads will be turned over to the owners. You know that the government took the roads from private owners for the betterment of the country during the war but had we not been organized we would have been in a very bad and unsafe position to hold our jobs as well as we have. We have won with this organization of the above name. The contracts on many different roads have won the same pay for the same service as the white man, we have proved to those in authority over us our efficiency on the job and we have also shown to the entire United States that we are a strongly organized body and we want your presence, your time and a few pennies to make this organization what the colored man would have it. This organization is entirely colored from the start to where it is now. It was six years old on the 7th of July 1919. A delegation of this organization met before the Board of Working Condition and was in conference for four hours with Mr. J. A. Franklin and his cabinet at Washington, D. C. This is the first time a Negro organization his eye met or assembled before such a board as this in the United States of America. Since that time this same association has not only been before the boards but is has been in the White House of Washington, D. C. You can see that we are undoubtedly on the right road as we have been offered four million dollars for our organization by another association but we refused to let them have it. Do you see the point Let me answer—Yes. They mean to deprive you of the equal rights that we have fought and won for you. But did we let them have it? No. The president of this organization, Mr. R. L. Mays address is 3441 Wabash Ave., Chicago, Ill. Write to this office to me 45S 1-2 West Broad St., Savannah, Ga., for further information if you desire of this association. Write or wire the above address. We have about 25,600 members at present International Grand Organizer, Deputy and General Grievance Advisor. P.
