THE NEW NEGRO'S HUNGER FOR AN EDUCATION IS SHOWN IN RECENTLY PUBLISHED BOOK
REV. JAY STOWELL PAYS HIGH TRIBUTE TO NEGRO Many Schools Established Under Methodist Episcopal Church For Education Of Negroes
New York, Jan 1 A new book on the education of Mr. Negro has just made its appearance. It is entitled Methodist Adventures in Negro Education by Reverend Mr. Joy S. Stowell and published by the Methodist Book Concern. Mr. Stowell has said an intensive study of the Negro problem in both the North and the South at close hand and writes with authority on his chosen subject. In the interests of the Committee on Conservation and Advance of the Methodist Episcopal church, Mr. Stowell recently made an extended tour of inspection of the educational institutions maintained for Negroes by that deposition, and it is with the history of these schools and colleges that the book largely deals. There are: Gannon Theological Seminary, Atlanta; Plint Goodridge Hospital and Nurse Training school. New Orleans Melbury Medical Col
Jose, Nashville: Clark University, Atti-
anta; Benedict College, Greensboro,
N. C.; Clifton College, Orangeburg, S.
C.; George R. Smith College, Sedalia,
Mo.; Morgan College, Baltimore;
Morristown Normal and Industrial
College. Little Rock: Rust College,
Holly Springs. Miss.; Samule Houston
College. Austin, Texas; Wiley College,
Marshall, Texas; Central Alabama
Institute, Birmingham; Cookman Insti-
tute, Jacksonville; Meridian Institute,
Meridian, Miss.; Princess Ann Acad-
emy, Md.; Walden School, Nashville.
The leading white and Negro pioneers, in the founding and upbuilding of these institutions are given considerable space, their difficulties and achievements displayed with attractive sincerity. But it is in his comment on the Negro at the various stages through which he has passed since enunciation that Mr. Stowell reaches the plane of universal interest to the Negro race. In discussing
enancipation, he says: "The story of the adjustment of the Negro to the new situation is little less than a wonder story. Critically enough, however, the dominating passion of multitudes was to get education. There was little or no attempt to take over the properly of former masters; slight was the concern for material possessions so long as there was a rag to cover the body, a cresst of bread to eat, or a shelter of any sort available; the supreme passion was the passion to learn."
"Our teachers are unanimous in the judgment that colored pupils learn as rapidly as white, and that they are far more enthusiastic in their studies." This is quoted from the secretary of the Freedman's Aid Society, the organization which preceded the present board of education for Negroes in Methodist Episcopal work. The astounding growth of the institutions for Negroes is cited at length and many instances of devotion and self-sacrifice on the part of its Negro students and supporters are given.

IN AMBASSMENT WORLD
New York, N. Y., Jan. 11th (Associated Negro Press)—Among the pleasing disclosures concerning our interest in the amusement world, one of the most astonishing and at the same time most substantial, is the Ferguson National Printing Company, of Indianapolis, Ind., according to J. A. Jackson in the Billboard.
Some very fine specimens of the work put out by this enterprising pace concern have been brought to the attention of the page.
The company has a $30,000 plant, fitted with the most modern equipment for doing two or three color work. The employees are all colored as are the officers.
The most significant feature about them is that they are in the general market, and are not confining their search for markets to our own group. Because of this they desire and are getting the support of many of our show and theatre owners.

G. C. Williams Passes Bar Examination
1930
Friends of Grover Cleveland WILLIAMS of this city will be pleased to learn that he has successfully passed the examination provided by the State Board of Bar Examiners of Georgia, and has been admitted to practice law in all the courts of this state. This examination was held in the Superior court of this county on December 14th last, and announcement of the successful candidates followed ten days later. Mr. Williams was the only colored applicant who succeeded in passing the difficult test.
Mr. Williams is a graduate of the Georgia State College, and of the La Salle University law school division, and is at present a letter carrier in the Savannah office. For four years he has studied law in the offices of Attorney J. G. Lemon, and is already well acquainted with much of the practice.
It is expected that Mr. Williams will prove a very creditable addition to the ranks of the lawyers of the state, and will reflect honor upon his race as a member and practitioner before the Savannah bar.
For the present, Mr. Williams will be located with Attorney J. G. Lemon at his offices in the Wage Earners Bank Building, where his friends may call on him.
COLORED TROOPS SHOULD BE SENT TO HAITI
Says Their Presence On Would Solve Present Problem.
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 11th (Associated Negro Press)—One of the conclusions reached by the Senatorial Committee recently returned from investigating conditions in Haiti was that it will be necessary for the present to keep an armed force in that Republic.
In view of the excellent service rendered by the 24th Infantry in the Philippines and the service rendered by the 52th Infantry in Hawaii, why would it not be an excellent idea to send a contingent of colored troops to Haiti. If the Government took this step it would meet with the hearty approval and cooperation of the fifteen million black people of the United States. It would be a guarantee to the people of Haiti that the United States Government meant to do the proper thing by them. It has been suggested that the 5th Illinois Regiment composed entirely of colored troopers be given this duty since that Regiment has recently been federalized.
Another recommendation was made by the Senatorial Committee to the effect that a Commissioner general or Governor be appointed after the island and that both Military and Naval forces be under him. This suggestion has great merit in view of the mess that the Military and Naval forces have made of things on the island. Let us suggest that such a post should be given to some colored man of standing in the United States.
SOLDIERS
New York, N. Y., Jan. 11th (Associated Negro Press)—Captain Napoleon B. Marshall, veteran of the World War and at present an officer in the Famous Fifteenth New York Regiment charges the American Legion mount charges the American Legion with unfairness to Negro former soldiers, in a special statement to the Associated Negro Press.
Mr. Marshall's office is at 2225 Seventh Avenue, New York City, and he is calling on the newspapers of the country to assist him in getting in touch with all former soldiers. Captain Marshall says:
"After the armistice was signed, as you will recall, there was a great World Victory Parade held in Paris of military units representing all the combatants who were engaged in that struggle. Not one American Negro was permitted to march in that parade. This fact was commented upon generally by the French people
"Last summer the American Legion sent over to France a delegation of veterans to visit the battle fields and to lay a wreath on France's unknown soldier. I myself made personal application to be permitted to represent the colored American veterans on that occasion in view of the fact that I had arranged to be in France at that time. My application was curtly and unconventionally rejected. Several Frenchmen, including some officials, suggested that the colored veterans send a delegation over to France and acting upon that suggestion upon my return to America last fall. I wrote to the national headquarters of the American Legion, Philadelphia. Ind., requesting a list of all American Negro Legion Posts in America with their locations. Subsequently, there appeared in the Chicago Defender an interview with me in which it was set forth the action of the American Legion last summer towards its colored members and my purpose to organize a delegation of colored veterans to go abroad next summer. Failing to receive any reply to my request to the headquarters of the American Legion, as aforesaid, I again wrote, repeating my request and received from the headquarters a letter of which the following is a copy.
"Our committee is now compelled to appeal to the colored newspapers all over the country for the names and locations of the colored American Legion Posts and I am asking you to help us in this matter as no one can do as well as the Associated Negro Press"
The following is a copy of the letter received by Captain Marshall from the headquarters of the American Legion.

FRED CUYLER KILLED BY WILL BOLEN IN EXCITING DUEL
Rev. Goodall ' Preaches Sermon At First A. B. Church.
One of the strongest messages of the gospel delivered in this city was the powerful sermon preached by the Rev. Thomas Jefferson Goodall at the First African Baptist church on Sunday morning at 11:30 o'clock. The subject of the discourse was "The present day challenge to N. groe men and boys." The subject contained five points: First, physical challenge; second, moral challenge; third, economic and industrial challenge; fourth political challenge; fifth, spiritual challenge.
The alpine points were plainly outlined by the reverend and every minute of his talk was instructive and beneficial. Rev. Goodall is a forerunner speaker and he did not fail to impress the more than two thousand people who listened to the wonderful discourse. He dwelled at length on the use of intoxicating liquors and condemned the deplorable action of young men and young women who are in the habit of partaking of intoxicants at public dances and private socials.
It was indeed commendable to note the large number of men and boys who were in attendance numbering about fourteen hundred and who sat at rapt attention during the entire sermon which lasted about one hour and twenty five minutes. There were men there from every walk of life and from every section of the city. There were about six hundred women and girls present who helped to swell the attendance. The sermon Sunday was mainly for men and boys and the main auditorium of the building was reserved for them, women and girls being committed to the galleries. So powerfully delivered and so plainly was it outfured that it will undoubtedly have a telling effect upon all present Hundreds more should have heard the Rev. Goodall, and those who did not avail themselves of the opportunity missed a rare treat, for it is generally conceded that the sermon of Sunday elicited all previous efforts made by this nationally known minister and pulpit orator
The entire service was enjoyable. the song service which was conducted at the opening of the service added
MEN HAD BEEN ON CHRISTMAS.
BAD TERMS SINCE
Dead Man Had Fired
The First Shot At His
Slayer.
Excitement ran rampant Wednesday night about six o'clock in Cooper Shop lane, now Olive street, when Freddie Cuyler and Will Dolen engaged in a pistol duel which resulted in Cuyler being shot to death and Mrs. Sarah Gates, a spectator, being shot in the liau.
It seems that Cuyler and Bolen had been on bad terms ever since Christmas was eve night when in an altercation at a party, said to have been caused over a woman. Cuyler was seriously stabbed by Bolen. It is said that the swelling between the men was bitter and that each was keeping an eye on the other as it was stated that when ever they met a fight was promised. Both men lived in Cooper Shop lane, within a few doors of each other, and last night Cuyler and his wife had a quarrel which resulted in her running from the house. When but a few doors from Bolen's house the woman was caught by Cuyler who began beating and kicking her. A crowd gathered round and some one hollowed to him to stop kicking the woman. Cuyler looked up and in the crowd sped Bolen upon whom he directed his
Writer Says Natives are Growing Tired White Yoke.
London, Eng., Jan. 11th (Associated Negro Press)—Anti-white feeling is last. Increasing among the natives in various parts of Africa, states Reuter's in an article "based on documentary and other evidence obtained at first hand by an authoritative British observer who has visited every part of Africa."
Reuter's information emphasizes the growing cohesion of native races throughout the continent. He says the strongest factor in the development of antigoniism to the whites is skillful propaganda fostered by an extrajudicial section of American Negroes.
"Circulars coming from nationalist sources in India and Egypt and from pan-African societies in the United States translated into fire of the principal languages are distributed in enormous numbers throughout Africa," the traveler states. "Booklets of twenty-five to thirty pages urge that the time has arrived for the black races to assert themselves and throw off the white yoke. "It is only fair to say," adds the authentic British, observer, "that these are not received with universal sympathy, but the very unsettling effect is easily to be observed." He has met it in the union of South Africa, in French equatorial Africa, and is a lesser degree in Uganda, in Krassland, Belgian Congo, Abbeyssinla and Kenya.
"It is wonderful the extent to which the war has produced frateternal feelings among natives, but in present day circumstances they tend to become anti-European", he continues.
The main reason is the growth of race consciousness thirst the world.
"The most effective remedy is an equitable system of land tenure guaranteeing to the native a stake in the country, protection from eviction by his own chief or local European inferior and a system of higher education that provides something more than the three It's".
much life and spirit to the occasion.
The music rendered by the choir and chorus was excellent. The solo by Rev J. Walter Moore was pleasing to the audience.

anger. Immediately he let the woman up and went over to Bolen who was standing against a post, holding his bosom. Cuyler is said to have asked Bolen with an oath, what he had to do with his beating his wife. Witnesses said that Bolen replied that he had nothing to do with it. Then Cuyler is said to have asked Bolen what he had in his bosom, to which Bolen replied, nothing. Bridently Cuyler thought that Bolen was preparing to pull a gun from his bosom and when he found that he had none he replied, "Well, you remember you stabbed me Christmas eve night and I didn't have you arrested, but now I got you and I'm ready; I'm going to put it to you." At that Cuyler told the crowd to fall back and drew his gun on Bolen and fired. As quick as a flash Bolen pulled his gun and fired, the first shot, witnesses say, reaching its mark. Five more shots were fired by the two men and when the smoke had cleared away Cuyler was found dead, two of Bolen's bullets having found their mark.
After Cuyler had fired his first shot, a scream was heard from a woman on a nearby stoop, who hollowed that she had been shot. It was found that the bullet intended for Bolen had struck her in the hip, causing a slight flesh wound.
Bolen immediately escaped after the shooting and had not, up to noon today, been apprehended. The dead man was about 29 years old, while his slayer is about 21.

ROSENWALD
RURAL SCHOOLS
NUMBER 1,126
White And Colored People Co-operate Build Schools:
Hampton, Va. Jan. 4—The construction statistics of the Rosenwald Rural schools, through December 31, 1921, are available and may be summarized as follows: 1,120 school buildings utilizing the services of 2,575 teachers, have been built at a cost of $633,905. Of this amount, Negro contributed $1,024,537; whites $200,702 public funds, $1,700,638; and Julius Rosenwald of Chicago $667,980.
- Classified by types, the buildings include 238 one-teacher schools; 420 two-teacher schools; 170 three-teacher schools; 101 four-teacher schools; 37 five teacher schools; 41 six teacher schools; and 11 teachers' homes.
By state the number of Rosenwald rural schools follows: Alabama, 233; Arkansas, 48; Georgia, 50; Kentucky, 52; Louisiana, 124; Maryland, 14; Mississippi, 119; North Carolina, 157; Oklahoma, 12; South Carolina, 70; Tennessee, 108; Texas, 42; and Virginia, 07.
In 1912, on his fifthth birthday, Julius Rosenwald contributed $25,000 to Tuskegee Institute to be distributed among such offshoots of Tuskegee as Dr. Booker T. Washington should designate. Of this amount Dr. Washington asked permission to use $2,100 for an experiment in building in Alabama six rural schools for Negroes who had to raise for each community an amount equal to or larger than the $500 assigned as Rosenwald old. The campaign for constructing these rural Negro schools has developed widespread cooperation between white and colored citizens in thirteen Southern states.
FIRST MEETING OF ADVISORY BOARD HELD. Need Of Great Interdenominational Theological School For Negroes Is Stressed.
Washington D. C. Jan. 4. The first meeting of the recently organized Advisory Board of the School of Religion of the Howard University was held on the university campus Wednesday, January 4, 1922. This board has been organized for the purpose of promoting a definite cooperative plan by which all persons interested, irrespective of religious faith, may work together for a better trained Negro ministry.
President J. Stanley Durkee presented the large plans of the university and told of the things already accomplished and those being planned. He stressed the need of a great interdecomnational theological school Dean D. Hittier Pratt presented the present condition of the School of Religion, of Howard University. He presented the needs for a divinity hall as the School of Religion has no building of its own, and the pressing need of additional professors, assistant director of extension work, and the need of further clerical help.
The work of the extension department of the School of Religion was presented by Dr. Sterling N. Brown, director. He told of the growth of that work and of the last twelve years steady progress until now with the most meager outfit the number has increased to nearly 250 students which number could be increased to thousands. If the work is properly backed. The startling fact that there are 1,800 annual calls for new pastors, and last year less than 100 graduates from all schools to supply the need revealed a most perplexing situation. He said that with 1,700 preachers annually going into the pastorate with but little if any, training, presented a problem that the American, people have not yet seemed to realize.
The Advisory Board of the Howard University School of Religion consists of nearly fifty church leaders in all of the important denominations in the country.
Organization of the Advisory Board was effected with the Rt. Rev. Alfred Harding, bishop of Washington, as president; Rev. Dr. Henry S. Huntington, of New York City, secretary; and Emmett J. Scott of Howard University, treasurer. Bishop Harding expressed himself as being most emphatically in favor of the plan and purpose of the organization and made many helpful suggestions—with reference to putting the program into operation. The general discussion shared in by the gentlemen present had a vein of enthusiasm and a deep earnestness such as usually marks the beginning of a great movement.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Jan. 11th (Associated Negro Press)—One of the most interesting events during the Christmas season at Tuskegee Institute, was the unveiling of the portrait of Mr. and Mrs. Julius Rosenwald, of Chicago, at the Children's House Training School. Through his yearly gifts and his interest in the pupils of the Children's House, Mr. Rosenwald, who is a trustee of the Institution, has gained a warm place in the hearts of these three hundred children and upon their request sent the portrait to Mrs. R. R. Moton, who formerly presented them to Mrs. I. T. Jones, the principal of the Training School and the pupils in connection with the Christmas tree festivities.

REHEARSALS FOR PASSION
PLAY OF 1923-24
Oberammergeran, Germany, Jan 2nd (Associated Negro Press)—The long list of characters for the Passion Play which will be produced here in 1907 have been selected and rehearsals have begun. The chief roles will be played again by veterans, some of whom have participated in the presentation for forty years.
Anton Lang will portray the character of Christ for the third time. Guido Diemer was selected for choir leader. There has not been a performance of the play for eighty years that a Diemer was not leader of the choir or one of the important singers in it. Guido Diemer took part in the war as an aviator.
The Passion Play committee decided not to violate Oberammergeran tradition by formatting pictures to be
a successa. Mr. Hinesman needs $^2$ to be congratulated for the manner in which he conducted his conference. All the farmers were benefited. Miss Quila Maness of Winston Salem N. C. who is visiting Mr. and Mrs. A. C Williams 130 Arohio street left last Monday night for her home Messrs. H. H. Smith and T. C. Williams left last week for Palm Beach and St Augustine, Fla, where they went in the interest of the Waycross Casket Co.

No Better Crop to Utilize Vacant Spaces in Gardens.
They Are Useful for the Table, and to a Limited Extent Will Supply Place of Potatoes—Reasonably Rich Soil Needed.
(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.)
As a crop to utilize garden space after early vegetables have been harvested; nothing is better than turnips. Turnips should be planted in most parts of the country about July 25, but in the extreme South as late as the last of August and can be left in the ground until after several light frosts or all winter in the South. They are useful as a table vegetable, and to a limited extent, will supply the place of potatoes. It is the general opinion of specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture that the American public could consume many more turnips than it does, a fact of particular interest this year what there seems every indication of a cultivated potato crop.
For field sowing, turnips are usually broadcasted. The particular requirement is a reasonably rich soil finely raked and leveled off to avoid water collecting in pools. The seed should be sowed sparingly. One homely rule is to take the quantity which seems sufficient and divide it in half. After the seeds have been scattered on the surface of the ground, they should be raked in. This may be done by dragging a piece of brush over the ground. The surface should be well smoothed. It is a good plan to sow turnips just after a rain, giving them opportunity to sprout before a crust forms. After sowing, they will need little attention until harvest.
CANDLE AND GRADE ALL EGGS
Department of Agriculture Endeavoring to Teach Women Best Ways of Marketing.
Farm women frequently have entire charge of the marketing of eggs butter and poultry. In some states they form what are called "egg circles" for marketing their eggs in large quantities. The eggs are collected regularly by one of the members of by some one hired by the circle. Efforts are being made by marketing agents of the United States Department of Agriculture to teach these farm women the value of properly candling and grading the eggs so that only the best are marketed.
GOOD AND POOR PRODUCERS
Owner of Small, Flock Can Determine by Observation Which of His Hens Are Layers.
In any flock some hens will be found to be much better producers than others. Often there are a few hens that are such poor layers that it doesn't pay to keep them. Where the flock is small the owner can determine by observation which hens are merely boarders; and these are the ones to ent.
IDEAL CONDITIONS FOR HENS
Egg Production Is Encouraged by Sunshine, Fresh Air, Green Feed and Comfort.
Hens lay best in the spring of the year. It would be reasonable to sup pose that the nearer to spring conditions the henhouse and its occupants can be kept the better will be the egg production. Sunshine, fresh air, green food and comfortable temperature are the ideal conditions.

NEW NEGRO HUNGER FOR EDUCATION
(Continued from Page One)
To look out upon the work which remains to be done is to face a task which is still enormous, but the remarkable progress of the past renews one's courage. A little more than half a century ago Negro education was prohibited by law; today some sort of an educational system for Negro children is supported by every state in which there are Negroes. There are multitudes of public schools, particularly in the rural sections, which are hardly worthy of the name of "school"; but a few years ago there were no schools at all. Even a poor school marks a beginning of something that can be improved, and a very bad school may be better than no school at all. Opposition to Negro education is largely a thing of the past, and cooperation has taken its place. There are, indeed, many grounds for encouragement, not the least of which is the change which has taken place in the Negro himself.
A New Negro
If there is one thing more than another which stands out in the present grave situation in America, possibly it is that we have to day a new Negro; a Negro who is very unlike the Negro of the past and whom it is very easy to misunderstand. Some deprecate the change and are inclined to attribute it to the Negro participation in the World war. Double the war taught the Negro many things, but, war or no war, the coming of the new Negro was as inevitable as the coming of the springtime. Any attempt to hold him back will be ultimately as effective as a similar attempt to stop the rising of the sun. The stage has been set for a new act and the forces behind it are such that, while the performance may be marred by unsympathetic auditors, nothing can permanently delay the representation. Quietly, and most effectively because quietly, the Negro is insisting that he be treated as a man. He

Hoves that he has demonstrated physically, morally, and intellectually that he is entitled to that consideration. And one of the characteristics of the New Negro is his hinder for an education. He understands better than the Negro did a generation ago the sacrifice and labor involved in getting an education, but he also understands its value, and he is content to pay the price. It is little short of amazing to see the patient, long continued, and diligent effort which a colored boy or girl will put into the getting of and the paying for an education, and yet although many of the pupils are extremely poor, one may go from school to school without ever hearing a story of poverty unless he diligently searches it out. The students are not given to complaining, but they are determined to get an education in spite of handicaps. And the opportunities are not equal to the demand made upon them. It is not only the Methodist schools but also others which are crowded beyond capacity. One school reports a thousand advanced applications; some are taking registrations for several years in advance, and other maintain extended waiting lists.
The important question, however, is not to determine whether the black man is intellectually inferior to or superior to the white man, but whether, as a child of the living God and a citizen of this free nation he is to have a chance to make the most of himself. Professor W. H. Crogmar of Clark University spoke wisely for his own race when he said: "When you begin to educate a human being it is hard to tell to what attitude he may rise. Let him feel that the earth is beneath him, God above, and nothing in the intermediate space to check his growth or chill his aspirations, and then you may begin to teach him the alphabet." It would indeed be premature to begin to draw limits for the development of the Negro. Already individual Negroes have done almost everything that a white man has ever done, from the painting of a picture to travelling to the North Pole or dying patriotically for their country. Time alone can tell how far the race will travel along paths of culture and intellectual development.
What Of The Future?
Bishop Robert E. Jones has recently called to our attention the pertinent fact that in the more than half a century of Methodists educational work in the South, during which members of both races and both sexes have migrated freely in the common work of the schools, there has never in all that time been a case of intermarriage between the races or a scandal involving individuals of opposite race. The Negro too, very quickly assumed a portion of the financial burden of the schools. Buildings have been erected from money contributed by Negroes poor colored people have, out of their poverty, contributed to the work of the schools, colored teachers have refused more alluring offers elsewhere in order to stay by their tasks, and pupils have paid both board and tuition from the very first. In fact scholarships in the schools have been available for their advance
The story of the achievements of the schools under the auspices of the Board of Education for Negroes' of the Methodist Episcopal church has never been told and never will be told; it is too extended a tale for that. Its record is to be founded in the nearly quarter of a million students whose lives have been directly touched by the work and in the millions of others who have in turn been touched by them. The schools have been a most important factor in making possible the present Negro constituency of the Methodist Episcopal church, which today consists of more than two thousand ministers and more than a third of a million church members who in the first year of the Centenary of Methodist Missions contributed nearly half a million dollars to the Centenary fund. The influence of the schools has, however, gone far beyond the limits of any one denomination and has permeated for good every colored church in the United States, to say nothing of the missionaries whom it has sent to Africa.
It is doubtful whether any other similar amount of missionary money has ever yielded more satisfactory returns than has that invested in Negro education during the last half century, and yet never in that time, has the board been able to do its work as it ought to have been done for lack of funds. Buildings have been dilapidated and overcrowded; teachers have been underpaid; needed equipment has been lacking; libraries have been absent when they ought to have been present; much needed gymnasiums have failed to materialize; and schools which have so severely needed endowment have had little or none. Yet in spite of embarrassments out of tantalizing unmet needs, the work has moved forward and its results have often been more substantial than the instruments through which they have been achieved.

Chicago, IL, Jan. 11th (Associated Negro Press)—Through the arrest in Pittsburgh, Pa., of II. II. Williams, a Negro, charged with the murder of Level Price, colored Pullman porter, in the local yards of the Pennsylvania railroad, Dec. 10, a $50,000 jewelry robbery which occurred on the 20th Century Limited between Buffalo and Chicago in February 1918, has been solved in the behalf of detectives.
Williams is being held in Pittsburg for the action of the coroner for the killing of Price. It is alleged that robbery was the motive and that Price's money belt, containing about $2,000, and a watch case missing. The inmate Goldstein is the 20th Century Limited has tried the police for nearly four years. The jewelry was stolen from Mrs. W. D. D. Stokes, wife of a New York Multimillionaire.
Williams was the porter in the car occupied by Mrs. Stokes. He was arrested Feb. 17, 1918, in Buffalo while attempting to pawn jewelry valued at $15,000. It is said that this jewelry was identified by Mrs. Stokes. After a long legal skirmish in New York the case was dropped and Williams as well as the remainder of the loot from the train robbery, dropped from sight.
When Williams was arrested recently in connection with the death of Price, it is alleged by the detectives that he attempted to throw away a bundle of checks on Chicago pawnshops. These checks were recovered in the control wagon and an investigation was begun.
According to Captain of Detectives Edburn of Pittsburg, Williams said at first that the jewelry repre-ented by the pawn tickets belonged to his wife in Chicago. His wife is said to have denied ever having owned jewelry of any kind even a wedding ring. Williams is then said to have admitted that he had been in possession of Mrs. Stokes' jewelry but said that he bought it from an unnamed man. Many of the pawn checks were issued more than a year ago and were cutlaved

HOMICIDE IN GEORGIA
Nearly every day announcement is made of violent deaths in this state caused by gun shot, knife, etc. In more recent times the bulk of these crimes have been committed by the members of the opposite race on each other. It is not unusual to read of a white son killing his father or vice versa. A class of white men have become a point in crime on account of their inhuman treatment of the Negro until they are now turning on each other. There is no telling where this blood thirstiness will end, unless the stronger minds in the state take a decided stand in the stern enforcement of the law and see that the guilty regardless of race, be apprehended and punished.
WATCHMAN ON THE WALL
Dr. Goodall of the First African Baptist church indeed acted the veritable yachtman on the wall in giving to the people of this community the kind of sermon that he so timely andably delivered last Sunday morning. A clarion call and warning were given to the people along physical moral, economic and industrial, political and spiritual lines. Each was aptly presented and illustrations made that were emphatically fitting. This clarion call should be taken up and echoed by every pastor and leader in the community. While each of the five points presented by Dr. Goodall are very important, yet the one that is the foundation, yet which the
the foundation upon which the others can be easily built, is the moral side. Some of the causes of looseness of this moral side is the drinking habit, the first because parents are giving the young people and the notorious jazz entertainments. The using of the hotel intoxicating drinks is the cause of undermining the health, weakens the character and brutalizes all whoso are to indulgent. The frequenting especially of girls of tenderness at jazz entertainments where these concessions are easily obtainable is the beginning of their downfall. For this much their own mothers are to be blamed. These mothers are really making prostitutes of their daughters and causing the health standing of the race to weaken. The men and boys who are numbered among the convivial ones should be equally condemned for they are adding their quirks in lowering the standard of the race. The ministers regardless of denomination, and leaders. In every walk of life should immediately or gradually and make a vigorous fight against these evils. This is tangible work yet it be done effectively.
LEARN FROM EXPERIENCE
In the main, the lessons taught in the school of experience is generally helpful and very impressive upon the thoughtful. The lessons of the past year along business and financial lines should be so impressive as to be kept constantly in mind. The past year has been one of the least in the history of this generation and like the imprudent Israelites of Joseph's time the masses failed to prepare for it. When they made a plenty, they spent in proportion giving not the least thought to the day of womb in fact they soiled at the thought and only realized their mistake when it was too late. This actual lesson should convert all of our people into a race of savers. Out of every dollar made, a part of it should be set aside and not touched only in cases of dire necessity.

THE LIBERTY BELL AND THE SLAVE BELL
In the犁ido in New Orleans, the museum, in the old French section of the city, wherein are stored and exhibited the relics of a bygone civilization, there is, in a corner far removed from the path of visitors, a bell of curious design. We came across it in our strolling and was struck
with the legend attached thereto. It is with it a prestige insuring considera-
famous slave bell that once rang onation, and a large sale for the work

NEGRO SONGS
The Negro problem in the United States is usually considered in one of three aspects.
First, as a labor question—The Negro's competition with the whites is presented for the old reason that his scale of living is lower.
Second, as a political question—The injection of a mass of ex-slaves into the voting population brought its inevitable confusion.
Third, as a social problem—The Negro cannot be argued or legislated out of his status of a human being, and as such he has to get along in some way with white human beings.
There is another aspect of the Negro question, however, which has been neglected, and that is the artistic and aesthetic aspect.
While the Negro is inferior to the Anglo-Saxon in the rough and more practical activities of civilization there are certain regions of sentiment where he is superior. In one realm of feeling the Negro is distinctly superior, and that is musk. The only entirely original music produced in the United States, and perhaps in the world, in recent time has been the Negro angolies. The are the products of pure and vigorous creative imagination.
Natalie Curtis Hurlin recently go out a series of four pamphlets of Negro folk songs, wherein there is presented to us, in a striking way, the musical genius of the Negro.
The black man produced his music as all true music is produced, as by-product of his work, his play, and his passion.
He is primarily the creator of the work song. The pamphlets referred to contain interesting examples. To instance, there is the "Peanut-Pickin Song", which grew out of the time when the slaves of all ages gathered round the open bonfire and picked the harvested peanuts from their stems "I kin fill this basket if I choose, Den Maesa gwine give me Chris-mus shoes.
Two red hank'chiefs an' a walkin cane.
Den I's gwine strut down de Big House Jane."
There was the "Marrerin' Song" which comes from the mines of Virginia, where the workmen chanted a simple refrain and were lead by a healer", or leader, who received extra pay for his ability in improvisation.
Besides these there is "Chicka' hanka", used by workers on the railroad, imitating the putting of locomotives; "Liza Jane" one of the man songs improved for dances; the "Cottin' Pickin' Song" the "Corn-Shuckin' Song" and others.
And no mention has been made o
the largest field of all, which is tha
of the spiritual songs and religion
melodies. But the point of it all i
that the Negro unconscious think
musically. To the white man, musi

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JANUARY 12, 1922
Rene, Marlin thus recalls Alexander, Dumas, fills, who was an octozoon. He may never reach the heights of either of these romantic artists, but no question of legitimacy will have to be considered by his biographers. He is the French colonial servant that this poor near Le Touquet in Central Africa, and was there that he found the显微镜 for botanists, his winning voluminous botanicals in African chiefs and the faithful the white men have brought "their magpie their inventions, evil ways". But the preface is strongly negrophile, the greater part of the book deals with the blacker magic, the inventions, their evil planted; the orgies, the bestialities the slimster crimes of the native tribes. Wherein Rene Marlin showed at once tact and truthfulness. In music, oratory, in story-telling the Negro has something distinctive to contribute to the world, what may be said of mathematics. The Latin peoples, more leistent than the Anglo-Saxons to colonial miscogenation, have been logical in keeping open the door of opportunity to the black man to the rewards in fields where he is capable of excelling. In this they are setting a fine example for the United States of America—Brooklyn Eagle.
AMBITION, CONFIDENCE AND DETERMINATION
Ambition, Confidence and Determination are the three qualities that lead infailably to great success. Ambition says "I must!" Confidence says, "I can!". Determination says, "I will!". There are millions of people who feel and say "I must!" there are thousands who say, "I can!", but there are only a few hundreds who say "I will!" and proed to accomplish what they will to do.
Without this third quality, of Determination Ambition degenerates into mere peltant dissatisfaction, and Confidence is nothing more than empty reason.
Children say "I must!" Fools boast "I can!" None but the wise, courageous, and strong dare to say "I will!" Ambition is natural to all who have blood in their veins, and Confidence man he developed surely upon the granite base, of special training on the work you want to do, but to get this training—to take the time and do the work that will assure you of your ability to make good—there's need of the third quality, Determination.
This quality also may be developed. It is the product of practice, and it is neither needful nor wise to start with great things. Sandow did not begin with hundred-pound dumbbells. Handel practiced his scale before he layed his oratory. Lincoln learned he law before he aspired to be a law maker. Just so is it the part of wisdom to develop determination by beginning with something small and persist at it.
When you have developed this quality, you will have everything, and you can see that it is not hard to get. You can also see, from the records of those who had it, that there is no eight to which you may not climb when to Ambition's "I must!" and to 'confidence's "I can": you have added determination's final words of power 'I will!'
Since our minds are projecting our
boughts into the new year and trying
to decide just what program we
shall follow, we will do well to dwell
on these three quatties, especially
determination.
BERT WILLIAMS MAY
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 11th (Associated Negro Press)—Bert Williams, who is now starring in Chicago, may soon enter the serious drama, according to information gained here.
One of the leading dramatic critics of the city recently commented on this act, in a daily paper. He said:
"The melancholy twinge of Bert Williams' chief song in "Under The lamboo Tree," the charming variable poet under which it holds the audience makes us wonder what Williams does of attempt soon what he has long falmed, as his ambition, namely, the laying of a real drama by Nigel author, "would like," says Williams, to interpret my race as sympathetically as Mr. Warfield did a certain loss of American citizens in the auctioneer. Each of us who has New blood is one that never fails to tamp on the heart or the spirit its acial traits. The laughter I have one's only on the surface. Now I could like to strike deeper. "Gilpin us done this and, great as he is, he is highest fields for the American dramatic only the surface has been watched."
PRES. HARDING NAME ANOTHER COLORED MAN
Appointments Wait-
ing On Move Of Presi-
dent Harding.
Washington D.C., January 0—(Asso-
cated, Negro Press)—The death of
Senator, Pompeo, of Pennsylvania, and
the passing of Will Hays from the
position of Postmaster General to a
picture world, at a salary of $150,000
per year, have absorbed all the high
points in politicalgosity at the
beginning of the new year.
Senator Penrose will be remembered for his notable interview given last spring with reference to Civil Rights, as the Negro is affected. The Senator made one of the most outstanding declarations for justice ever uttered by a public man. It is true that some of the Pennsylvania leaders claim that the late senator "ate his words" prior to the failure of the bill, but it is known that the senator carnally denied that he did anything to cause the defeat of the bill. He was very much affected by the criticism that followed and fold a representative of the Associated Negro Press that he hoped the people would not hold him responsible. Senator Penrose was practical in his political friendships. There were a number of men "close" to him in Pennsylvania, probably the chief loving Andrew Stevens the banker of Philadelphia. There are those who wonder what effect the death will have on the political fortunes of Stevens.
There is no denying that the closest man of the group to Will H. Hays in political life has been "Bob" Church of Memphis. Mr. Hays has had every confidence in Mr. Church. As a matter of cold fact, they formed a sort of comradeship that was most unusual, and certainty will not be completely ended by Mr. Hays taking another position.
The representative of the Associated Negro Press is in possession of actual information concerning the high ceylon in which Mr. Hays holds the very inexpressible but powerful political leader from Tennessee that would read like a Chilling story of fiction if it could be told in public. Suffice it to say that Will H. Hays has always accepted Robert R. Church strictly on his merit as a man, and has accepted the political opinions and advice of Church at face value.
To succeed Will H. Hays, Senator Spencer has recommended Walter S. Dickey, manufacturer, newspaper owner and multi-millionaire of Kansas City. Mr. Dickey is an unquestioned friend of the colored people, and knows them from "a to izzard." He is a master of the political game, and very practical in his plan and operation. He believes in big things, and believes that "to the victor belongs the spoils." Should Mr. Dickey be determined upon for the portfolio, a new Richmond would come to the front in the person of William C. Hueston of Kansas City and Gary, Ind. Hueston has been a "chief lieutenant" of Mr. Dickey for years.
Waitlug on President
In the matter of appointments, everybody is waiting on the President. What the president is walking on, has not yet been discovered. It can be stated with high authority that the president proposes to take care of Henry Lincoln Johnson in a handsome way. The appointment will be in keeping with the high esteem in which the President and Mr. Johnson's innumerable friends and followers hold him. "But what's the hold back?" That seems to be the universal query. President Harding is going to name another colored man for recorder of deeds, and he will probably be William C. Matthews of Boston, Mass. Mr. Matthews is regarded as a real leader in the state of Massachusetts, and was former assistant district attorney in the federal office of that city. There are a number of candidates, including Robert Nelson, of Wilmington, Del. editor of the Wilmington Advocate—a citizen of ability and a leader of distinction; the Indiana senators are lacking James Lott, an attorney of Indianapolis, and there are many others who have their "chair in the ring." While all this Republican marking time is going on, the Democrats, Socialists and Liberals are throwing fuel on the fire, and getting up big steam for November. Not so accomplished an artist as Williams. Aside from any problems of our American Negro citizens and the stage as a proper place to give them hearing. It is true that in one of the
2,000 colored people will hear Maude Cuney-Hare; great rare pianist and Wm. Richardson, the great harpist, gestured by Sargasso's best talent, at
DARKER RACES WORLD WANT EQUALITY
French Example Is Held Up Before Oppressed Negroes
Chicago, IL Jan. 11th (Associated Negro Press) "What are the darker people of the world up to?" That question is being asked by whites everywhere. It is the underlying thought of the Disarmament Conference, in Washington, and has been from the beginning.
Plainly the white races of the world are deeply concerned. It has been widely stated that the boldness of President Harding's utterances in Birmingham was due to the clear vialor of fact that the world cannot, go on and oppress darker people.
Now comes the Chicago Tribune seeing "Red and Black," as attested in one of the most significant editorials ever published by a daily newspaper. It is plain from the trudd of the editorial, taking France as a basis of justice, that the Tribune fears, that after all, what the dark people of the world desire most, and particularly certain elements among black people is "World Domination." There has never been a bolder, albeit, far-fetched intimation. Says the Tribune:
"Rouge Et Nclr."
"When the American Negro novelist and social philosopher Dubois whose writings came to the attention of Chicago whites as the result of a Negro outbreak of fanaticism on the south side, resulting in murder, was in France as a delegate to the Pan-African Congress, he found that the French attitude toward the African blacks was infiltrious in one respect. It granted the Negro social, political, and mental equality, but it Insisted upon capitalism "The French accepted the equality of black and white but they did not want the blacks to be red. They trained intelligent Senegalese so in capitalism that between a black man of social standing there was no difference of opinion regarding property rights.
"To Dubois this was an injustice to Negro traditions. In Africa the black understood communism, the common ownership, and use of resources. The black had found one powerful friend among the whites, the French. Under the French a Black nation was being created in Senegal. Senegal given equality, accepts as one item of equality French military conscription.
"The French white youth and the Senegal black youth go to the military authorities on arriving at military ages and are taken into active service. This is one of the means by which La France Noire is being created. When a black boy from Senegal has been through the same military training as a white boy from Normandy he is a soldier, a military Frenchman, and he has the same standing in Paris that he would have among his own people in Africa.
"All this is good, according to Dubois, but it is bad that along with these social recognitions should come the development of capitalism which although it deemed race distinctions should imposo economic ones.
"When Mr. H. G. Wells went to the radical Negro club in Washington and met the intelligence, including Dubois, he found this thought permeating the Negro opinion. A young man commenting upon the Senegal situation asked me. Wells, 'Why not a black Napoleon?' Mr. Wells, who is an international chameleon is as good a white Englishman as ever drew breath, thought that the young man lacked something in the way of manners supposed to prevail in America.
Houge et nort is the American Negro idea and it is the idea which is being spread as widely, as it can be, to the consternation of American Negro conservatives. France recognizes the artistic, mental, social, military and political qualities and inequalities of her black citizens. "This is not enough for our own Negro intellectuals.
2,000 colored people will hear Maude
Cuney-Marie, great race pianist and
Wm. Richardson, the great haritone,
sisted by Savannah's best talent at
the auditorium January 23.

of the federation:
A committee from the Federation of Colored Women's Clubs visited the meeting of the Medical Association on last Thursday evening. The purpose of this committee was to consult the physicians regarding our children's free clinic. A corral welcome was tendered the committee and the Association listened with profound interest to Mrs W. G. Hill, president of the federation, who presented this most needed work to them for their consideration and cooperation. There was never a more beautiful spirit manifested, than was shown by these physicians. Every one expressed the hearty record and pleased to give his free service to the clinic. A committee was appointed by the Association to program the work, and the assignment of doctors in their turn. The whole Medical Association decided to meet at Carlyr Street School building, preparatory to the opening of the clinic, 4 o'clock Monday p.m. We haven't words to express appreciation to our physicians for their willingness and for taking hold at once in saving and preserving the health of the children of our city. The public at large is invited to be present with the physicians and hear the good news of the clinic on next Monday. Every organization is asked for a special donation to help carry on the clinic and other upfit work which the Federation has planned for this year.
Don't forget the woman's platform meeting on the fifth Sunday at the Dunbar. Every body is cordially invited to be present.

JENKINAT AND DOESN'T CARE
Look at a man who has never read
a book or newspaper in his life—never
learn to cook, and you will see a man
who doesn't give a snap of his finger
for all the books and literature in the
world.
He is ignorant and doesn't know it,
and doesn't care. But the same thing
is trump with some Masons. They do
not read Masonic literature, don't care
for it. They are ignorant of the pleas
ure and profit derived from such reading,
and they think you are selfish,
and wanting their money for nothing
if you ask them to subscribe for such a
perfectal.
It is a curve to Maundy, and one of its greatest courses, that no few of the fraternity read their own literature. We know of no other organization of men on earth who have such a large percent of non-readers as in Maundy. —Drexchange.

Marcus seeks to improve the moral order by enlightening men's minds; training their hearts with the love of the good; inspiring them with the great principles of human fraternity; and requiring of his disciples that their language and actions shall conform to that principle; that they shall enlighten each other, control their passions, author free, and ply the vicious man's antagonized with a deplorable malice-Missouri Freemason.
Studios Masons are comparatively rare. And yet, there is a vast amount of rich learning in Masonry. Examine well its symbols and learn what they teach. There is not a symbol in Masonry that is not almost a volume in itself, and yet how few there are who can tell what they mean or what lesson they are intended to teach. There is absolutely no value whatsoever in memorizing the ritual and going no further. The memorized word can do not good until we have mastered its meaning and the inspiration born of that meaning has offered up to nobler and better lives. Masonic secrets are soul secrets; the ritual is merely an allegorical and symbol set of directions as to how to go about illusorying the secrets for one's self. They point the way to where the key is hidden. But they are secrets.—Paternal Record.
BROTHERHOOD ESSENTIAL
Sooner or later the world will come to recognize and understand that the basic principles of Freemasonry are closely interwoven with the public life of nations and of the civilization; that the brotherhood of God and the brotherhood of man must ultimately prevail if we are to live in peace with the numerous races of the world, speaking a languor of tongues.
The institution of Freemasonry which at its altars receives on an equalism of all creeds and beliefs, men from the highest rank in all avenues of human endeavor to the humble, are perse better enabled to solve some of the true needs of humanity than those organizations whose purpose, thought and feelings are outside, perhaps beyond, the life of the common people.
The influence of Preemagus and its example before the world, especially in their awful times of war, should be military. The essence of its example should be one of innate strength, of solleness and depth. Its thought should be the heart of men and things it should be kind and beacerolling appealing peace and good will among men. In a word, doing God's message among men.
His influence upon the mind and soul of the men who have entered within its solemn portals have ever been eloquent and enabling. One of its modest inspirations is to make brotherhood a positive, living energy in the life of humanity.
Ancient literature tells us the Golden Age of Man Is the greatest desideration of civilization. Fundamentally brotherhood in respect to human relationship is at the bottom of all rational society, but we cannot have the highest conception of life of brotherhood unless we have dignity of mind, nobility of purpose, and the moral, strength that comes from real manhood.
Freemasonry is facing one of its greatest responsibilities. The present unrest of the masses, the horrors of war, the turmoll and strife of the hour, make certain that if we would demonstrate to the world the sincerity of our brotherliness, we should not fall to be true to ourselves, true to humanity, true to the principles of Freemasonry. Indeed the greatest victory of the age in the inattainable hope in a brotherhood that recognizes the human race as one, great family.—Masonic Pidings.
INFLUENCE
No man can influence his fellows with any power who retires into his own selfishness and gives himself to a self-culture which has no further object. It is not an unreasonable demand of the majority that the few who have
college and university should exhibit the breath of sweetness of culture, and should snail everywhere that light which emobles common things and without which life is like one of the old landscapes in which the artist forgot to put sunshine—Voice-Review.
A chapter of Royal Arch Masons was organized at Dalton, Ga., recently. The infiltration was in charge of J. H. Walker, deputy grand master, of Macon. The following officers were elected; Rev. C. D. Greene, high priest; Harold Walker, king; J. M. S. Muttley, scribe; Gen. Jackson, secretary; Tom Jackson, treasurer; L. C. Campbell, captain of the host; D. F. Westfield, principal solourner; J. T. Cunningham, royal arch captain; H. H. Jackson, captain of the 1st vell; Solomon Man, captain of the 2nd vell; J. W. Calhoun, captain of the 3rd vell; T. J. May, marshal. The officers are all capable and special motion should be made of Rev. C. D. Greene, our high priest, who has aspired for years to have this department of Masonry added to our order. He is a past master of Dalton Lodge No. 228 and is a man of sterling qualities and nobility. He is principal of Emory street school and also a minister of the gospel. The meeting night is the first Friday in each month.
Girls' Day At Y. M.
C. A. Sunday
The third Sunday has been set aside as girls' day at the Y. M. C. A. meeting. From observation it is determined that among the best supporters and attendants of the "Y" girls' can always be depended upon, we sometimes think a Y. W. C. A. would be more appropriate than a Y. M. C. A. because of the manifest interest of the girls and women of the city in this men's organization. We ask that the church be crowded on Sunday with girls of the city to listen to the delightful program to be rendered by the college and public school girls. The mothers and fathers are asked to be present.
The Y. M. C. A has several strenuous friends among them the Savannah Pharmacy which is going to help the association by inaugurating a new pen sale for the benefit of the association The following letter from Dr. J. E. Farnillo and W. P. Moody, pro- tory, of the Savannah Pharmacy explains the company sale from which the Association hopes to be greatly benefited:
To the PLAN of SANVATHA
"We, the proprietors of the three stories of the Savannah Pharmacy Co. that we should do something to assist the worthy institutions among us for the betterment of our people and in as much as the Young Men's Christian Association on men's so much to our city and to the young Negro manhood of the race, we are inaugurating a coupon sale to extend over sixty days for the benefit of this organization.
"Any person purchasing a dollar coupon or any person selling same may receive its equivalent in trade at any of our stores. This coupon is to sell at one dollar and will purchase any article or article including pre-cessions. This is to say if a prescription cost one dollar and ten cents or over, the coupon is good for one dollar of this amount. This applies to all goods.

Dunbar Big Benefit or Y. M. C. A.
The biggest picture ever brought South by a Negro theatre and the very first time coming to the South, is the wonderful photoplay. The epiphany which is to be shown at the Dunbar theatre January 17th. This picture it is said by both the pulpit and press, to be one of the greatest moral lessons ever thrown on the screen and more than that it surpasses thousands of spoken and written sermons for it visualizes the good lesson it touches. In other words, it gives its glorious lesson as Christ gave his through the eye. At no time in the world history has the human family been so deciving and hypocritical in its dealings with its follow men; never before has the world seen such awful conditions of murder and grief among both individuals and hatfails. It is hoped that every boy and girl will see this wonderful picture and learn this great lesson, and also that every man and woman in Savannah will embrace this spacial opportunity to get one of life's greatest lessons.
For the benefit of all the public school children and those of the college they will be admitted in the afternoon at five cents (no war tax). In the evening the admission will be ten cents for children and fifteen cents for adults.

TENTH ANNUAL CONVENTION
OF OMEGA IPSI PHI FRATERNITY
Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 2nd (Associated
Negro Press)—The tenth annual convention of the Omega IPSI Phi Fraternity met here December 27-31. The convention was the greatest in the history of the organization. College men gathered from the leading institutions of America to plan for the greater development of the Fraternity. The invasion of the South began Sunday, December 25, when the delegates from the North and East arrived. In true southern style, the chapters of the Fraternity located in the city of Atlanta, made extensive plans for title endorsements of the visiting delegates of the fraternity. Under the leadership of H.L. Thomas of Atlanta the fraternity has made wonderful strides during the last year. Heven chapters have been added to the fraternity roster. Atlanta often called the "Athons of the South" received with open arms the fraternity. The southern institutions of learning have been slow to
The open sessions of the convention were held on the night of December 5th at which time Dr. William Pickens Field Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. made the address of the evening.

PRELIMINARY REPORT DIS
GRACE TO UNITED STATES
New York, N. Y., Jan. 2nd (Associated Negro Press)—A statement issued by the executive committee of the Haiti-San Domingo Independence Society of which Moorfield Store is chairman, characterized as a disgrace to the United States, the preliminary report of the senatorial commission appointed to investigate conditions in Haiti and San Domingo.
"Issued immediately following conference with Secretary Hughes, it justifies and makes a part of American public policy the overthrow by force of arms of small and weak peoples," said the statement. "It endorses the policy followed in Haiti of using violence to impose upon a free people a treaty which it would, never have accepted of its own free will.
"The commission has done irrepro-
bable damage to the faith and good name
of the United States, especially in
Latin America," where his protections
of benevolence are as nothing in
the face of the acts and facts which
are now part of public record. The
armaments prohits against pollin-
marines from Haiti and restore Haiti
independence at once."

IN "Anchors and Shield" appears; a touching story of a woman, with three small children, sitting, on the day of her husband's funeral, trying to figure out what would become of her now that she was left alone in the world with no income, no home. While in this seemingly hopeless position, a bank messenger came to the door and handed her a peek age of papers, on which she noticed the following; in her husband's handwriting: "To be delivered to my wife the day of my funeral." When she unwrapped the bundle she found a letter, with the notation "My last love-letter." It is shown below:
"When you receive this I shall be far away from you; so far that the only answer you can give me will be to unchanging love. I am writing this alone in the office, where I sit thinking how old and how long the child will be when you get this letter. Very old. I hope. This is my last love letter. Do you remember the first strange it seemed to be writing it, and how happy I was! I wanted you so! And do you remember the letter you wrote? I shall never forget it. You will find it with my valuables. Now I am writing to you. You are happy, for no shadow makes me think it will soon be read. With my first letters I sent you flowers; this I enclose a life insurance polley. You may be surprised how I managed, with the expense of the polley, to keep the policy paid. But you will remember we often did without things we wanted and you will learn more, attife your long lifesites, I borrowed money. I was tempted sometimes to let it drop, but I was afraid for you, said No. Now it is yours—youre and the children—and you need not want for gay men; you manage well. This knowledge makes it worth ten times over what the policy has enjoined to you as an expression of my love. May God bless and keep you and the babies.—B. B."—Friedrich Wilhelm Elias.

DYER ANTI-LANCHING BILL
Key West, Fla., Jan. 2nd (Associated Negro Press)—Manuel Head, white owner of a coffee shop, who, after he had been beaten by a hand of masked men, shot and killed William H. Decker, prominent Key West resident, was taken from the county jail by a mob early today and lynched.
He was shot twice before being removed from the jail, then taken out near Old Port Martello, strung to a telephone pole and his body riddled with bullets.
Barrled in the cupboard of a house, Hound stood off an armed mob until rescued by authorities and taken to the jail. Murders stood guard outside the jail until the mob has disbanded. At 8 a.m., when murders were retrieved by deputies, the mob gathered again and demanded the prisoner of Sheriff Curry. When the latter opened the door for a conference a dozen armed men forced their way in, overpowered the jailer and seized Head.

And forever with Jesus by her side.

SMITH—In sad but loving remembrance of my darling mother, Lillian Rebecca Smith, who departed this life Jan. 17th, 1921.
In the grave yard sweetly sleeping,
Where the flowers gently wave
Lies the one I loved so dearly,
In her silent lonely grave.
No one knows how much I miss her,
No one knows the tears I've shed.
But in heaven I hope to meet her
Where no farewell words are said.
Mother, thou art gone but not for
gotten.
Nor will thou ever be
For as long as life and memory last
I will always remember thee.
Sadly missed by daughter

FATHER E. P. LANDRY
DIES IN NEW ORLEANS
The following, taken from the Times
Pleasing, New Orleans, La., is an account of the death of the Rev. Pierre
Landry, father of Trididge P. Landry
of this city, which occurred in that
city December 23rd:
Reverend Pierre Landry, retired Negro minister and a leader of his race and church, died Friday at the home of his daughter, 700 Siddell avenue, Algiers. This funeral will be held at 1 p. m.

The funeral will be in charge of the Negro Masonic lodge, of which Reverend Landry will be a member. Burial will be in Carrollton Cemetery.
Royerend Landry was born in Ascension parish in 1841 and was self-equipped. During the carpeting regime he was mayor of Donaldsonville, a magistrate and a state senator. He was a minister of the Methodist Episcopal for fifty years but a few years ago became a member of the Missionary Baptist Church. He was a member of the governing boards of the New Orleans University, Flint Medical College and Gilbert's Seminary. He is believed to have preached to more people of his race than any other man in his state. In recent years, he was connected with the City Board of Health, per-
forming marriage ceremonies for members of his race.
He was married twice and was the father of fourteen children.
Several white citizens will speak at his funeral, including W. L. Bentley and former Governor Warmoth Reverend John Marks and Dr. J. P. Newman also will speak. Active pallbearers will be William Turner, Robert Washington, John Joseph, T. W. Williams, Reverend G. Rounds and Reverend A. Lewis.

Mr. Mackey was very well known and in former years was very popular among the base ball players, and while his health was some what poor for about three weeks, his death was a shock to his relatives and friends. He is survived by a devoted mother, brother, sister, two aunts, two nieces, a grand niece, a grand nephew, brother-in-law, two sisters-in-law, several cousins and a host of friends.

SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS FOR EX SERVICE MEN
Many Thousand Ex-Service Men Received Free Scholarships.
New York, Jan. 3—During the past year and a half many thousands of service men received free scholarships in educational institutions through the scholarship fund of the National War Work Council of the Y. M. C. A. It was expected that this work would cease on June 30, 1921. Some additional funds, however, have been made available and the Y. M. C. A. has announced a supplementary scholarship plan, under which half scholarships are being awarded in Y. M. C. A. A. schools in all parts of the United States. Scholarships providing half the tuition fee for the school year of 1921-1922 has been awarded to several thousand students in the Resident Schools of the Y. M. C. A. and in the correspondence courses of the United Y. M. C. A. schools.
This fund offers a special opportunity to ex-service men to secure the excellent courses of instruction by cor Texas Chamber of Commerce in defense of the Ku Klux Klan; and 3. That the Texas Chamber of Commerce wrote to Congressman Clark that his sentiments showed him to be unsuited to the position he held.
The Texas Commerce Chamber's petition against the Ku Klux Klan recites that "threats of violence (upon both men and women) by masked men in the garb of the Ku Klux Klan, are now of almost daily occurrence; they are forcing their victims, under threats of severe penalty to leave their communities, homes, families from society and" that "this intolerable situation has reached a point where neither life, liberty, nor property is safe."
Congressman Clarke retorted that "my own knowledge of the order," derived from the Congressional hearing, "stings as utterly false every allegation made against it by your resolutions." Congressman Clark's letter also referred to "loafing worthless Negroes—almost every night committing the most horrible of crimes right here in the Capital of the Nation—"
To which the Texas Chamber of Com-
criticisms and statements made in your
letter as indicative of your true sentiments in regard to the action of our members in seeking proper law enforcement, it would seem to us that you are not of sympathy with the high position you now occupy. In fact such spirit and sentiments, as expressed by you, seem to us to make your position, as a member of Congress, unconsciliable and at cross purpose with our American ideals and institutions; a condition which is our opinion your colleagues should take cognizance of."

Full information may be obtained either through the local X M C A or by writing to the United X M C A schools, 371 Lexington Avenue, New York City. Any man who served in the army, navy or marine corps of the United States In the World War, and who has an honorable discharge from such service is eligible to apply for these scholarships, and awards will be made as long as there are funds available under the present plan.
Awards may also be secured in local Y. M. C. A. schools where such are available. These awards are made by the local association from a special allotment of funds secured from the New York headquarters
Under the original plan for the award of scholarships which was in effect from November 1910 to June 1921. scholarships were given in all kinds of reputable schools, and under this plan awards were made to 5,591 ex-service men. Of this number 20,134 were in Y. M. C. A. schools and classes; 14,520 In Elementary and high schools and business trade schools not conducted by the Y. M. C. A.; 23,491 in correspondence schools, largely in the extension division of the Y. M. C. A., and 12,204 in college and universities. The total amount paid to service men on account of these scholarship awards was $4,367,071.
The National Educational Service Committee of the Y. M. C. A. regrets that the limited funds available for this supplementary plan makes it necessary to restrict awards to Y. M. C. A. schools at present. They feel however, that in view of the needs of service men in the country as a whole that this is the wisest plan.

During the last two months nearly 5,000 ex-service men in various parts of the United States had received scholarship awards and are pursuing courses of study leading to vocational and cultural improvement. It is expected that this opportunity will be embraced by fully 15,000 ex-service men during life next three of four months and it is hoped that the number of colored men making use of this opportunity will be fully proportional to their numbers in military and naval service during the World War.
