N. A. A. C. P. OFFICER FIGHTS DEPORTATION N. A. A. C. P. OFFICER FIGHTS DEPORTATION Man Charged With Having Instigated A Riot In North Carolina New York, N. Y., January 22—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People today announced that its assistant secretary, Walter F. White, had gone to Buffalo en route for Canada, to assist in the efforts being made to prevent deportation of Matthew Bullock, a colored man whom it is sought to take back to North Carolina. Bullock is charged with having instigated a race riot in Norlina, North Carolina, following which his brother and one other man were lynched. The riot originated about a year ago in a dispute over some apples for which Bullock's brother had paid. He was offered an inferior grade and protested. A hystander suggested that he be shot. That night a lynching mob formed. A fight ensued in which six white boys and three colored boys were shot. Later that night Bullock's brother and another man were taken from the jail and lynched. Bullock fled to Canada, entering that country from the United States on March 13 last. Because of his having entered Canada without inspection he is subject to deportation. Appeal to stay the deportation has been made to the Canadian government in Ottawa. Should Bullock be returned to the United States nevertheless, efforts will be made to have him held in New York State, whose governor will be asked to deny extradition to North Carolina. MANY SLAVES IN ABYSINNIA MANY SLAVES IN ABYSINNIA Startling Disclosures By Correspondents London, Eng., Jan. 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Ahyssinia, 'the Negro Kingdom in Africa, is the last home of open slavery; in its capital, Addis Adeba, there are more slaves than free men, and the British legation there is full of slaves owned by legation servants according to assertions made by two white correspondents of the Westminster Gazette who lately have been in Ahyssinia. The correspondents assert that of the slaves alleged to be in the British legation many are British subjects, having been captured by slave raiders in British territory. The article says France. Great Britain and Italy, having bound themselves under the arm convention of 1019 not to supply munitions to the Abyssinians, it is now only America which is exporting or seeking to export arms destined to assist the slave raiders. At the present moment the article continues there is a large consignment of American cerrlkiges and automatic rifles lying at Jihuit (a French port on the Gulf of Aden) Awaiting the consent of the French, not being much in love with the convention of 1019 and fearing an "incident" with the American Government which probably knows nothing whatever about the affair, may shortly give their consent. In an editorial the Westminster Gazette suggests that the British foreign office has preferred to say as little as possible about the alleged scandous conditions in Abyssinia and calls for the abandonment of the "hush policy". "Who would have thought it possible," says the newspapers, "to see anywhere in the world in 1922 ten thousand newly captured slaves marching to lifelong captivity?" The editorials adds that it is unfortunate the United States did not sign the 1010 convention, "but we feel sure the state department at Washington, once it realizes the fact, will not delay in making its attitude clear." Officials at Washington are said to be wondering what attitude colored Americans will take in opposing slavery in an African country, controlled by Africans. The Savannah Tribune. Black Swan Corp. Does Big Business New York, Jan. 19—Starting in February with cash receipts of only $674.64, the Face Phonograph Corporation, manufacturers of Black Swan records reports receipts during December of $20,467.83. The total cash receipts for the year are given as $104,628.74, with disbursements amounting to $101,827.17. The business done by this concern is distinctly encouraging for it must be remembered that the receipts of the Face corporation are largely from colored people against not only the keen competition existing in the phonograph industry but the underhanded, malicious and persistent opposition of several of the large white companies. Sharing in the prosperity of this company are colored employees, colored musicians, composers, singers, printers and the like-many of whom would be without remunerative, dignified employment but for this concern. GARVEY ASKED TO RETRACT STATEMENTS GARVEY ASKED TO RETRACT STATEMENTS Statements Characterized Malicious Falsehood. New York, Jan. 23—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People today made public a letter written to Marcus Garvey, managing editor of the Negro World, a newspaper, calling upon him for a retraction of statements published in the number for January 21, 1922, and directed against the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, although the association is not mentioned by name. The letter, which was signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the association is as follows: "Marcus Garvey, Esq." "Managing Editor the Negro World 'Sir: "In the Negro World of January 21, 1922, on page 5, column 2, occur the following statements: All the troubles we have had on our ships have been caused because men were paid to make this trouble by certain organizations calling themselves Negro Advancement Associations. They paid men to dismantle our machinery and otherwise damage it so as to bring about the downfall of the movement. "You are aware of course, that the name 'Negro Advancement Association' is sufficiently like that of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to lead some persons in spite of the absurdity of the accusation to believe that it is this association which is being referred to. We do not know of any other organization with a similar name. We must therefore ask you in justice to your readers and to the members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to make it clear that you did not intend to accuse this association of employing men to injure or dismantle any machinery whatever on any ship whatsoever. As you know, such a statement applied to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People could be characterized only as a malicious falsehood of the most contempt sort.

FUNDS APPEALED FOR IN FIGHT FOR DYER BILL N. A. 'A. C. P. Confident Its Work Has Been Effective. New York. Jan. 21-The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, today issued the following statement calling for financial assistance in the fight to make the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, H. R. 13 a law. "In its ten-year fight on lynching," the statement says, "the N. A. A. C. P. has spent almost $35,000. The Associations Anti-Lynching Fund, which it is sought always to keep at the $10,000 mark has dwindled' because of the heavy demands made upon it. Those demands have included personal investigations of lynchings' mass meetings, world-wide publicity. The old canard that rape is a cause of lynching has been finally and once for all exploded. "During almost a month's debate of the bill in Congress, the secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. has been in Washington in constant conference with leaders in the House of Representatives. An enormous mass of information collected by the N. A. A. C. P., and newspaper editorials based on statistics for the N. A. A. C. P. have been inserted in the Congressional Records and will be read throughout the country "The N. A. A. C. P., confident its work has been effective and has made the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill a national issue, calls upon citizens for such contributions to the Anti-Lynching Fund as they can afford. What is it worth to colored Americans to continue unabated the fight to blot not Lynching in the United States? When the bill has been passed by the House of Representatives, it must still be enacted by the Senate. To bring this about strenuous work is necessary. The Association will furnish the work. Will its friends furnish the funds? "Donations of sums from one dollar up will be welcomed. Make checks payable to J. E. Spingarn, treasurer and send them to the N. A. A. C. P., 70. Fifth Avenue, New York. What will you give? Now is the time. If you do not act now, you may not have another opportunity for many years.

Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Jan. 18- The thirty-first annual Tuskegee Negro Farmers' Conference was held here today. The activities began at 7:30 o'clock this morning with demonstrations in home and farm life, followed by an agricultural parade, a barbecue and an afternoon session, at which Dr. R. R. Moton presided. The farmers related their success or failures as the case might be and enumerated the attributing causes of each. The addresses were chock-full of timely advice of which "cooperative Marketing" and the "Importance of the Ford proposition" were the keynotes; while the farmers' discussions were permeated with a spirit of hopefulness. Resolutions commending the farmers for sticking to the job during the period of depression; for deverifying and rotating their crops; approving cooperative marketing associations; advising farmers to subscribe to farm papers; to buy land and improve farm machinery; to support the schools in their communities and the progress of the Inter-Racial Commission were adopted. The meeting was largely attended by farmers, educators, ministers and community workers. The worker's conference was held Tuesday at which time subjects of interest to rural teachers, ministers and community workers was discussed. That the conference has lost none of its interest and zest to the Negro farmers of the South was clearly attested by he large number present today. The attendance exceeded that of two years ago which was in itself a record breaker. Groups of farmers with their wives and children were gathered here and there around fires bully by them to keep out the early morning chill until the rising whistle blew and buildings were thrown open. The visitors included many white farmers from Montgomery and other cities in Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, Mississippi, Texas and Virginia. Promptly at 7:30 a.m. students in the industrial department began the demonstrations, showing phases of home and farm life. On one side demonstrations on interest to the women were going; on the other side the men found those of interest to them. On the "home side" the first demonstration was showing the possibility of comfortable home on the farm, having a sleeping porch, bathroom, dining room and other conveniences. The proper arrangements of these were shown and how the room could be fitted, up with attractive, but inexpensive furniture. In another section a class "The proper care of a baby" was being conducted by a graduate nurse who weighed the babies and advised the mothers of the correct nourishment and proper care of the infant. Practically every phase of the home was taken up in this side even the correct manner of teaching children. To the delight of many, the agricultural parade, which was discontinued last year was again placed on the program of the day. At 10 o'clock the parade, headed by the institute band, moved off, and with its floats bearing agricultural and horticultural products along with live stock wound its way through the campus. Following behind the band were horses and mules of splendid callber, then came the floats with vegetables of all kinds, home cured meats, country syrup and other foodstuffs followed. In connection with the parade the Institute Extension Department reported the following evidences of progress in educational affairs in Macon county; number of colored schools in the county 57; value of this property, $55,500; amount of appropriation last year by state and county for Negro education in the county $10,430; amount raised by colored patrons them selves $5,411. At the close of the session Principal Moton announced that the monument to the late Booker T. Washington for which the colored people of America contributed $25,000 us a gift to America, would be unveiled on April 5th. Money, Drawn From Bank Destroyed Nine $100 bill, representing the lifes savings of a colored woman, were destroyed in a fire discovered in her home at 1515 Decature street last. The money deposited as a savings account in a local bank was drawn by the woman shortly before the bank closed for the day. She hid the money among clothing in a wardrobe on the second floor. When the fire was discovered three hours later, the article of furniture was mass of flame. The damage to the building was estimated at $200—Times Dispatch. PRES. WILEY APPEALS FOR DORMITORY PRES. WILEY APPEALS FOR DORMITORY Citizens Asked To Raise $10,000 For New Girls Dormitory There is being erected on the campus of the Ga. State Industrial College a $50,000 academic building. This money was given by the legislature of Georgia. When completed, will be one of the handsomest and best appointed in the South. And further every bit of the work has been done by the students in training at the college. Now, we have still an opportunity which we must improve, a long looked for opportunity, an opportunity to secure a girls' dormitory. The general cure a girls' dormitory. You are now called upon to raise $10,00 of the $25,000, to match $25,000 from the general Educational Board. We are in sight of a $60,000 girls' dormitory. Boys have been boarding students for thirty years. Arent you willing to give the girls a chance? Plan For Rally State Superintendent M. L. Brittain has given us Friday, February 17th as "Industrial College Day." On that day and during that week two kinds of tags will be sold, 10 cents tags for pupils and 25 cents tags for patrons and friends. Can you afford not to help? The commission of the Georgia State Industrial College and the State Department of Education are a unit in helping us to put this great rally over. We must not fall. The Negroes of Georgia "put over" their quota in every drive during the World war, whether that drive was for money, for food for men or for victory on the battlefield. You are now called upon to push the cause of humanity by the arts of peace, enlightenment and culture rather than by the instruments of death and destruction. SUPPORTING ANTI LYNCH BILL SUPPORTING ANTI LYNCH BILL Failure To Pass Will Affect Republicans Washington, D. C., Jan. 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Remarkable demonstrations of oratory, say nothing of upholding the principles of constitutional government have been heard and observed here in the House of Representatives during debate on the Dye'r Anti-Lynchburg bill. Representative Theodore E. Burton of Cleveland, Ohio, formerly a member of the United States Senate delivered a speech that will be discussed for many years to come. Congressman Burton came out unqualifiedly for the bill and gave a series of logical reasons that made his colleagues sit with rapt attention, and take notes. Representative Tinkham of Mass; Rep. Vare of Penn., and Rep. Taylor, Republican of Tennessee, are among others who smoke in favor of the bill. There is no question but what the Republicans are determined to put the bill across, and while it is a good and needed law, it is being done also because the leaders realize that they would not have "one chance in a thousand" of holding colored votes in the North without favorable action on the bill. LEADERS FACE UGLY CHARGE IN AFRICAN TOUR Criminal Proceedings May Follow Failure to Carry Out Contract. Philadelphia, Pa.—With the filing in the municipal court of the suit of Samuel H. Peters vs Wm. H. Jernegan Henry C. Callas, L. G. Jordan, Richard R. Wright, Jr., Wm. H. York, Nanie H. Burroughs, John H. Frank Wm. H. Heard, Maggie L. Walker, and Richard R. Wright, Sr., there is brought to light one of the worst cases of present day reckless business transactions on the part of acknowledged leaders, and which is bringing distress and even dire want and poverty to hum dreeds of confiding members of the race who placed confidence in the men and women in whom they have believed in as real leaders. The suit of Mr. Peters is only one of the many and varied attempts being made to secure relief for the many men and women of the race brought here through advertisements sent broadcast throughout the country over the names of the men and women above mentioned, appealing to those interested in the redemption of Africa to become members of an ideal winter cruise to the land of promise and the home of their forebears. Those persuaded to prepare for the trip were assessed $405 a piece. Most of those paying the assessment were people of the better class who were anxious to get a glimpse of Africa and the prospects of its future development. These prospective tourists came here to sail on the S. S. Bryon, which the promoters of the sciene, trading at the American and African Tourist Company, had announced would sail, December the 10th. With the arrival of the prospective (Continued on Page Seven) MYSTERY SUR ROUNDS FIRES MYSTERY SUR ROUNDS FIRES Several Negro School Buildings Destroyed Knoxville, Tenn., Jan. 25th (Associated Negro Press)—The series of fires of unknown origin that have occurred in the state of Alabama, Texas, North Carolina, Ohio and Tennessee, destroying valuable buildings and their contents on the grounds of leading Negro institutions of learning have created much alarm throughout the country and the theory has been advanced that the fires may be the result of some organized effort at incendiarism. One of the leading institutions in the state of Texas, for the education of colored girls was the first to be visited by fire that destroyed one of the largest and most costly buildings; then within a few weeks the report of the burning of a building at a college in Selma, Ala., was flashed to the country. Hardly had this report been spent before the news of the burning of one of the finest buildings of Wil- berforce University, completely destroying the building and its contents and entailing a great loss, was noted. Only last week the spacious and costly Industrial Building on the campus of Middle University, N. C., was rendered a complete loss by a disasterous fire. Recently, before the breakfast bell had been sounded at Carey Hall, of Morristown College, forty one miles from Knoxville, one of the young women of the hall, noticed a volume of smoke and flames burst forth in the building and in a very short time the finest building on the campus was a mass of flames. The several hundred occupants were able to escape with their lives only, all of their belongings being completely destroyed. The inadequacy of the fire department of the small town and the high elevation of the building rendered the efforts of the firemen useless and the onlookers were powerless to stop the blaze. The building was valued at $100,000 and carried insurance to the extent of $5,000. The mysterious burnings which have occurred recently have been the cause of a special conference with the authorities and an investigation will be started at once.

In the reading of the History of this the 134th anniversary the writer read facts as it is printed and also received personal information. A few facts are as follows: "In shaping the destiny of man, God in His allwise knowledge, recalling Himself into the heart of a Negro man poured His almighty grace into his lips and placed Light into his mind and through His strength this Negro man, George Liske, whose monument now stands as history at the entrance of this the first Negro Baptist church of North America. He was born in Virginia about the year 1750, removed to Georgia with his master who was a Baptist deacon of a church in Burke County. After George Liske came to Georgia he was converted and baptized and after finding himself endowed with ministerial gift he began to preach on plantations along the Savannah river with great success. He then was given his freedom. He baptized Andrew Bryan, his wife, Sister Kate Hogg, Hannal. Simpson and others. Andrew Bryan began to preach and meeting with unbounded success during slavery days, organized the congregation at Brampton barn, 3 miles west of this city. After worshiping three years his master allowed Andrew Bryan to erect a wooden building in Yamacraw in 1785. He baptized 45 slaves in one day and on the 20th day of January 1788, the church was organized, Andrew Bryan was ordained to the ministry and called as its pastor. This humble servant serving as the pastor of the church named for him served his congregation twenty-four years and then reported to the Glory world." The anniversary closed with great success and a banquet was arranged in the exchange by Madam Royal and her excellent committee, which was highly enjoyed by all present. The early Sun day morning prayer service was conducted as usual; Sunday school was largely attended, at the morning service Rev. Gilbert Miller preached, subject "Repentance" Rev.

We ask: Where are the boys and young men of Savannah? There are a gracious few who attend Sunday school few at the morning service of the several churches. Another question: What is to become of the people who consistently "beech or eliminate God out of their consciousness, as if no God or his cause exist?" "Be not deceived" men. God is not mocked you, whitsoever a man soweth, that shall be also repent. We shall still strive in our effort and not be discouraged. "The earth be moved and tho the hills be carried into the deepes", the young men of Savannah will yet hear and heed God's voice. May we again extend an Invitation to you, young man.

Lockwood assumed, the pastoral oversight until the Savannah annual conference. Bishop E. G. Rich ardson, D. D. appointed me patsor, and I felt honored to have the high ministerial privilege to serve Palen and to be associated with the high class ministers. Since I arrived in this beautiful city both the pastor and members have been hard at work trying to finish our new church. Among us there is an active consciousness that we have done well: We will soon have the doors thrown open, and on the first Sunday in Feb. will have an all day concession ser- A COMPLI Larg On That is the best in style and gives satisfaction in service. You should come to this store vice. While we hope to achieve more for our zion and for the Kingdom of God than to merely have a comfortable meeting house, not that only, but sinners converted. And I hope to be able to get above that old indefinite church rule that is as old as the hills "Hilt or Miss Plan," which is equal to no plan at all.

Much interest is being manifested in the Wednesday evening Bible study. No teacher can afford to miss this one hour of discussion of the Sunday school lesson. "A cure for Corvetousness," will be illustrated at 3 p.m. Sunday by the use of the black board.

The other night at one of our leading churches the pastor in speaking about the evils of the present day, mentioned certain forms of dancing as being among the chief agencies which are leading our young folks to destruction. Of course, he very forcibly spoke against the besetting sins of the average dance hall as it is conducted to-day and in no uncertain terms denounced those who are conducting these places without any restraining hand against the many ugly unsuccessfully and immoral dances which are now very much the rage all-over the country. He stated that it was not his purpose to attempt to stop dancing, but to control it, for, as he said, it is in the proper conduct of these places of pleasure and not in their elimination, that the remedy lies. We believe that this reverend gentleman has struck the nail on the head. The young folks are going to dance and there is no movement which is going to stop them from thus enjoying themselves. Any attempt to put a ban on this form of entertainment is going to meet with a wholesale rebuft from the young people. We may as well view the thing from a perfectly sensible standpoint and conclude as this minister has that we shall try to control it and not stop it. Dancing is a part of youth, and in it when properly conducted, there is much of physical beauty to be developed but when it is indulged in as it is in so many of the halls in this and other cities, only that which degrades and debauches the young and makes them immoral is the result. We believe that whenever dancing is to be a part of an evening's entertainment, and usually this portion is the most desired by the young folk there should be some studied effort on the part of those in charge of the program of events, to see to it that only that sort of dancing is indulged in which tends to elevate those who participate in it. This is very seldom done and especially is this true at some of the recalled afternoon dancing classes which are held at the halls. These "dancing classes" are most fertile fields for mischief, for usually they are attended by the younger set of boys and girls whose minds are still in the formative stage. These youth are in many instances, unmindful of the degrading influence of the very questionable dancing which they are indulging in. The attendants at most of these afternoon "dancing classes" are mainly boys and girls who are in their early teens. Many of them attend these affairs with the knowledge of their parents who, no doubt, think them harmless and others go without their parents knowing anything about it. But whether these youth attend these dances with or without thier guardian's knowledge, the fact remains that they are visiting places of most impending dangers, with but few exceptions. There is scarcely anything of a high moral tone to any of these afternoon jazz classes and unless something is done to bring them out of the low, degrading atmosphere in which they are conducted rutilation to their youthful attendants will, inveritably be the result. The pulpit cannot speak in too much condemnation of the altogether too frequent vulgar dancing of today. It has not only gotten to be a common sight at public affairs, but in private parlors, under the very eyes of their parents, young folk too often engage in these questionable grations which they call dancing. The time is indeed ripe for a halt to be placed on this horrible dancing, for it is getting more widespread everyday. The young folk are human; they want and are going to have their fun and a great portion of this fun is dancing. Let us try to control it. Lord, who am I to teach the way To little children day by day, So prone myself to go astray? I teach them knowledge, but I know How faint they flickler and how low The candles of my knowledge glow. I teach them power to will and do. But only now to learn anew My own great weakness through and through. I teach them love for all mankind And all God's creatures, but to find My love comes lagging far behind. Lord. If their guide I still must be, Ohlet the little/children see The teacher leaning hard on Thee. —Selected THE FRIENDS THOU HAST No race can live alone to itself and rise, to the peaks of civilization. No race can lift itself by its own bootstraps. The walls thrown around the Chinese has isolated them from the world and set them apart from modern conventions and methods. The jungles of Africa have put the black people in a deep grove of environment which centuries alone erase and destroy. The black people of America cannot scale the barriers and reach the heights thru their own efforts. They need the friendship of the world, the influence of the twentieth century civilization, and the advise and counsel of other great people who have been thru the great schools of experience. The black people should cherish and love all who are well disposed toward them. "The friends they have they should grapple to their souls with hoops of steel." No theory of economic and social oneness is in shape with the spirit of the age. Wars may shake the foundations of sodety, fratricide may crimson the dwelling places of humankind, but over and avobe it all is the fundamental principle of living—the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. It cannot be despised; it will come even against the snears of the cynie, against the snarl of the stofe, against the ridicule of the agnostic. It is the ultimate goal of life and nothing can stem it. Everlastingly and earmally the march of civilization is towards the eventual fraternity of all men and the infinite parenity of God. The black man must not become radical and carnal-minded that these principles are to be disregarded. He needs all the friends that he can get and should shun none who extends the olive wand and the helping hand. Who are the friends of the black man? The test of friendship is the test of human hearts. If a man feels in his heart the love for his brother and the desire to aid him, then he is a friend. The ulterior motive must be delved into and carefully examined and if the motives are altruistic even tho the methods be in errors still the man is a friend. We cannot accept all who proffer friendship towards and the lesson of the Trojans and the Greek gift horse will well be borne in mind, "to fear the gift bearers," but once the motive is made clear and the intention understood, the well-wisher should be clasped to the heart. The black man should accept all offers of friendship with both qualifications and reservations, but when once sure that the heart is right, then together into the real purpose of life should the friends face together. In the battle for recognition in America the black man can do little alone. He must cultivate the respect, admiration and love of his white-faced brother. For the favors already received no evidence of 'ingratitude should be tolerated. Man's inhumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn, "but keener than a serpent's tooth is man's ingratitude." No white man can lead us out of the wilderness of ignorance, superstious persecution and infamy, no Jew ever led a Gentile and no masterpiece was ever written in any language other than the mother tongue. No white man can feel the same pangs and pinches that the black man feels. The black man must furnish his own leaders, but never in his arrogance and conceit should he refuse to accept the aid and succor of his friends in white. The cross-roads wind somewhere to a meeting point and to the point of convergence let the black men peer far into the future for friends like John Brown, Lovejoy, Garrison, Cavath, Ware, Rendall-Story, Ortington, Spingarn and Seligman should never be forgotten. "The friends thou has and their adoption tried grapple to thy soul with hoops of steel."—Black Dispatch. ADVERTISING One of the most promising signs of our advancement is the hundreds of business enterprises now owned and conducted by members of our group. THERE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JANUARY 26, 1922 There is scarcely a line of endeavor that they cannot be found in. Their successes are measured—brains—which means aptitude, ability, sticktoliveness, a pleasing manner, fairness and a willingness to ever give a dollar's worth for a dollar. Branch are as follows: S. J. Brown, president; S. A. King, vice president; Ezra Johnson, recording secretary; Earl A. Ashton, financial secretary; A. P. Pope, treasurer; N. A. Branham, sergt at arms; W. H. Maddox, collector M. B. association; D. C. Parkhurst CHICAGO NIGHT LIFE UNFOLI The successful business man or woman knows the value of advertising. They know that every dollar put into publicity will more than double their investment. The small storekeeper might say he cannot afford to put an ad in the newspaper—his business is too small. But he doesn't stop to think that the big merchants started at the bottom right where he is now, and advertising judiciously put him where he is now. While we may be new in the business world we can plainly see that advertising is an old, tried and successful game, and we are counting big returns when we are far sighted and progressive enough to advertise the wares we have for sale to the greatest extent possible—Defender STAND BY OUR INSTITUTIONS If there ever were a time when members of our group should stand by their institutions. It is now; for we are passing through a period of financial depression, and these institutions are being tried as by fire. It is most natural that some of them will suffer, but that number should be only negligible; and if we rally to their support, they will weather the storm. The main thing is to keep up courage, for when that is lost, all is gone. It would be just as fatal as it would have been if General Foch $ _{q} $ when the enemy was about to enter the gates of Paris, had lost courage and given up but he did not; on the contrary, he took fresh courage and his words have become historic, when he turned his back to the wall and declared: "They shall not pass!" The maintenance of our banks, insurance companies, drug stores and educational institutions should be animated by that same spirit, and we should see to it that they are maintained. The main thing is confidence in ourselves and our future. With it we can not fall; without it, we are already doomed. If any of these institutions are ingr ing, let us get behind them and put them on a solid financial footing. By putting our little sums together, this can be easily and promptly done. This is our main chance, and the great need of the hour. The late Booker T. Washington often said: "We are inclined to start from the top" rather than at the bottom." Instead of laying a solid economic foundation, we are too much inclined to aspire to things which can only exist when a solid economic foundation has been laid. Hence, the task to which we should immediately address ourselves in our business institutions, which will give our young men and women employment after having fitted themselves in the schools and colleges. They must have something to do, and these business institutions will do this. This financial depression is an after math of the late world war, and is being felt all over the world. and we cannot be any more immune than any other group—we must bear our burden and carry it with great resignation, but with the determination to succeed. With resolute will and confidence in ourselves and Providence, victory is perched on our banner. We have had our blitters before, and we should accept them as lessons and profit by them. We shall be put to the acid test, but if we are made of the true mettle, we shall prove our real worth and shall be better for having encountered them. Let us get down to hard work and prove ourselves equal to the task which confronts us. Let us present a solid front—recalizing that "In union there is strength." And with a united front cooperation and patronage, we shall not only keep our institutions intact, but push them to greater heights—Atlanta Independent.

Refreshments were served at the conclusion of the installation ceremonies, short and spicy speeches being made. The principal addresses were by the president elect of the branch and auxiliary, Samuel J. Brown-president of the branch and Mrs. Rebecca Stiles Taylor, president of the auxiliary. The elected officers of the auxiliary are: Mrs. R. S. Taylor, president; Mrs. Geo. S. Williams, vice president; Mrs. A. L. Branham, secretary; Mrs. Maybel M. Wright, recording secretary; Mrs Theodosia Johnson treasurer; Mrs Betty S. Pope, mistress of arms; trustees, Mrs. Addie King, chairman; Mrs. Ethel W. Jackson, Mrs. Lucile Stiles.

Parkhurst-collector N. S. assn; trustees, W G. Williams, chairman; M. B. Branham, J. B. Parker. The branch was organized about twenty years ago, Frank L. Curley being its president and P.A. Denegal, its chartered secretary. It has enjoyed years of success and has the distinction of being one of the foremost branches in the state. Its representative, M. B. Branham, was elected vice president of the state at the last national convention, held at St. Louis, Mo. The Auxiliary has been meteoric since its organization, April 16, 1920. Mrs. M. B. Branham was its first president and Mrs. Ethel W. Jackson its first secretary. The organization keeps in constant touch with the national head and enjoys the destination of being the only one in the state and the only exclusive colored auxiliary in the national association. It has a healthy treasury and a membership of eager and enthusiastic ladies. The auxiliary here has demonstrated its worth to the letter carriers of this city and the post service, on several occasions since it has been organized. During the recent Christmas rush they served hot coffee and luncheons in the basement of the post office to the employees who were unable to get home to their dinner. This conserved a considerable time for the men to actually put in more work, to the day and helped dispatched the mail to the governments patrons with less congestion than heretofore experienced. This was at the suggestion of Postmaster W. R. Gignallat, who commended the splendid services of the ladies. SETS UP COUNCEL Mrs. Minnie L.

After spending a delightful day she was recorted to the Y. M. C. A. where she so up the Savannah Council; No. 1335, of St. Luke. The success of the council was altogether through the uniting efforts of Mrs. Silvia Johnson, 520 Montgomery street. Avery elaborate supper was served and every one left feeling grateful to the distinguished ladies for the good work. The officers elected for the ensuing year were as follows: W.

WILL NOT PERMIT KLAN PARADE Galveston, Texas, Jan. 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Rumors that there was to be a parade of the Ku Klux Klan in Galveston one night this week brought forth a statement from James O. Stevenson chief of police that such a parade would not be permitted. SEN. UNDERWOOD AGAINST SEATING SEN. NEWBERY Washington, D. C., Jan. 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Senator Underwood of Alabama, leader of the Democratic minority in the Senate, opened his speech against the scating of Senator Newberry as follows: "The case now before" the Senate does not present the ordinary question as to whether a Senator has been fairly and honestly elected to a seat in this body. As I see his case and as I believe the country will see it the issue involved here is whether or not the Republican party as a party intends to obey the law of the land." That is the issue involved here. It is seldom that you find a contested case that is so closely connected with parity organization as this case is." The spectacle of the 'United States Senator from Alabama' or from any other of the Southern states presuming to hale the Republican party to the bar of public opinion upon the charge that in federal elections that party does not obey the law of the land, to say the least, exerts derision. There hasn't been an honest federal election in any Southern state since 1870. The law of the land, obedience to which suddenly concerns Southern senators, has been opened and contempt CHICAGO NIGHT LIFE UNFOLDED Judge Decide If Dance Dance Is Indecent Chicago, Ill., Jan. 25th (Associated Negro Press)—"Is 'Shimmy Dancing' indecent? In stripped English that left nothing to the imagination, three of Chicago's best known reformers and one of the city's best colored "shimmy shakers" battled for three hours in the Morals court last Tuesday over the question of what constitutes improper entertainment. At the end of the day Judge Arnold Heap, who presides over the verbal battle, announced wearily that he was depressed. He will decide today who won. The three reformers were there to convince the judge that the entertainment which thrilled the patrons at the Entertainer's Cafe, a resort frequented by both colored and whites in the days before it was closed by the city who indecent and immoral. They were appearing as witnesses against two performers arrested in the cafe when it was raided on Nov 19. The fourth witness was Julia Rector Not as gib in her explanations as the reformers who testified that she was "a muscle dancer," she often had recourse to the quilter art of pantoming. More than once she brought a smile to the faces of even the reformers and the "persons who had business in the courtroom" with her muscular gyrations. "The shimmy indecent?" She repeated when asked if she had gone through the movements attributed to her by other witnesses—"well, I should say not. Anyway, it's not as I dance it." She illus'rated her point by modestly shaking her shoulders. There was no music in the courtroom, but Ler feet kept up a continual shuffle in the witness box and her body swayed from side to side in rhythm. Before she had been placed on the stand Leslie Lewis, a chemist told of his experience at the Entertainers cafe. He was questioned by Assistant State's Attorney Frank Southrada. "When I went into the place," said Lewis, "I raw Julia Rector dancing before a table where two men and two girls were sitting. Some one gave her a quarter and she danced, whirling until her skirts were at a level with her knees. More tips came. Soon her body and head were leaning far back and her dress caroming well above her waist. As she danced she rotated the central portion of her body to the music." Miss Jessie E. Binford, a government investigator, called a spade a spade. "I saw couples clinging together, their lips glued to each other and pressing tightly together, as they swayed heavily back and forth to the strains of the jazz," she said. "At times the man chewed at the neck of his partner" She described jazz as a medley of barnyard sounds, the crowing of roosters, the bleating of sheep, the barking of dogs, all syncopated together and served with the beating of tom toms by colored orchestra. Only a colored man can put the right punch in jazz she said. nously flouted in every federal election in every Southern state. There is not the slightest pretense in the South of conforming to the mandates of the federal Constitution as regards the rights of citizens to vote.

There is not a Democratic Senator from any Southern state who was elected in conformity with the United States Constitution and the federal election laws. There was not a Democrat Senator who arose to denounce the seating of Senator Newberry who has a right to his own seat were his credentials examined and passed upon in accordance with the provisions of the United States Constitution If the federal laws were enforced in the South, there would be but a mere skeleton of the Democratic party which now exists, for five-sixths of its representation in the House of Representatives would be eliminated Have you forgotten the Lessons of your past few years?

DINING CAR EMPLOYES Philadelphal, Pa., Jan. 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Few persons pay any attention to the calibre of the men who serve them as they enjoy a meal on the dining car but a record recently made on one of the great trunk lines calls attention to a splendid achievement. 25th Assoc new patron pay more of the men enjoy a meal record recently at trunk lines enddld achieve By Order of A. B. Singfield District Deputy rand Chancellor MRS. SUMMERALL'S NEWS STAND STLL OPEN In two successive months, a corps of examining physicians have been unable to find a single man among the 1,500 waiters, cooks, and pantry attendants of the ePennsylvania railroad's dining cars and restaurants, showing the slightest symptom of suffering from a contagious or otherwise communicable disease. This record was made in November and December 1921, monthly physical examinations of all employees of the Pennsylvania Railroad engaged in the handling of food, table linens or tableware. Examinations of this character were instituted on this line nine years ago, as a measure for the protection of its patrons. When the examinations were first started there was considerable resentment among the employees required to undergo them. This, however, was overcome by pointing out that the rule worked for their own protection and benefit as well as for the protection of patrons. Now the employees themselves are unanimous in approval of the plan, and fully realize the effect it has had in raising the standards of employment in this branch of the railroad service. The Pennsylvania railroad alone has a total of 2,230 employees in the dining-carry and restaurant department, and of these more than two-thirds consist of waiters, cooks, pantrymen, etc. who are required to undergo the monthly physical examinations.

C., Jan. 25th (Associated Negro Press)—The Constitution of the United States is to be reprinted. This is not an alarmist statement. It does no mean there is to be a new constitution written. It simply means that ever so often there is published a reprint of the Constitution of the United States, construing the provisions of the Constitution and the several amendments. This is a very valuable document, not only to the legal profession, but to members of Congress, newspapers, students of our government, etc. The last such reprint was made in 1913. Since then there have been several amendments to the Constitution and a great many Supreme Court decisions interpreting the Constitution and amendments. By virtue of a resolution passed during the closing days of the special session of Congress, this compilation is to be brought down to date and a new reprint issued. It is suggested that the 11th and 15th amendments be printed in bold, black type. KNIGHTS OF KU KLUX Washington, D. C. Jan. 25th (Associated Negro Press)—First appearance of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan outside of the offices maintained at 801 Munsey Bldg. was made shortly before dusk, in Rock Creek Park, where a small initiation was held, according to a statement made public today by Samuel F. Polindexter, head of the organization in this city. One of the number took some pictures of the spiral ceremonial out in the open, the film of which was sent to the Star. The picture as described by Mr. Polindexter, deplays three candidates pledging their allegiance to the secret order in front of the fiery cross, the emblem of the invisible empire. It was the first ceremony of its kind to be held outside and, according to a statement given out at the office is to be followed by many others. "We plan a large initiation ceremony in the near future," Mr. Poindexter stated. It will be held in a different place, perhaps, but if not in the defined territory of the District of Columbus it will be held just outside, either in Maryland or Virginia. Klans of nearby towns will probably join in with us, as the society is strongly organized in many of the small towns near Washington, Clarendon, Ballston, Alexandria, Fairfax Court House and Falls Church have had Klans for some time and recently organization of the order has made its appearance in Hyttville, Mid. "In regard to the local Klan, let me say that it is growing rapidly and I expects to see a charter for it in a short time. The organization here is composed of the finest caliber of men, men prominently identified in all walks of life. We were here yesterday, we are here today and we will be here forever." NOW A SEASON EVENT Washington, D. C.; Jan. 25th—The third annual charity dance given under the auspices of the Northern Confer- ence of the Associated Charities Or- ganization of the District of Columbia had Friday evening, January 12 was a monumental success. The indices of the organization carried their slogan into every part of the city and now ocular business, and professional Washington looks forward with eagerness to this annual event which is designed to have the colored people more largely share in the effort to care for the worthy sick of the city The Murray Casino, 920 You street, was the scene of the first brilliant affair of the year 1922. Men and women well-known in social, business and professional circles throughout the nation were among those who came to make the benefit hall a success. Among the Washington matrons who were responsible for the affair and who have devoted much time and effort in charity work in Washington are the officers of the Northern Conference of the Associated Charities of the District of Columbia: Mrs. Immett J. Scott chairman; Mrs. Lauren Bruse Glenn, Worker in Charge and Mrs. J. Hayden Johnson, Chairman of the Finance Committee. Assistance was given the ladies in connection with the holding of the charity hell by A. H. Glenn and Colonel Brooks who acted as official host. Many beneficial results have come from the efforts of the officers of the Northern Conference of the Associated Charities of the District of Columbia during the past year. Aside from holding a number of benefit balls and promoting other programs in the interest of the work, during the Christmas holiday season a Community Christmas Tree was erected at the Dunbar High School. Over eight hundred children were given various presents and were served ice cream, cake and candies. Among those who assisted in making the Community Christmas Tree a success were Mrs. Tessie L. Connellly, representing the Dunbar High School; Mrs. Charles H. Fearing, through whose efforts a large contribution was obtained from a number of friends; Mrs. Garnett C. Wilkinson, Mrs. Otho Peters and Mr. E. B Henderson. A large number of the teachers of the various public schools in different sections of the city made contributions to the fund for the Christmas tree. The Dunbar Community Center in addition to making a contribution cooperated with the ladies of the Northern Conference of the Associated Charities and the result was the most successful community Christmas tree. SPLENDID TRIBUTE PAID NEW EDITOR OF THE BEE Washington, D. C., Jan. 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Charles Luceen Skinner, one of the progressive young men in journalism, has become the publisher and editor of the Washington Bee, formerly owned by the late W. Calvin Chase. Mr. Skinner states that the policy of the Bee will be one of "boosting." As an evidence of the eastern in which he held by his former employer, J. Finley Wilson, editor of the Washington Eagle, and as an illustration of the way the young journalists are "pulling together in competition," the Eagle pays the Bee editor the following splendid tribute: "The new editor of the Bee walked into the sanctum of that ancient journal this week and took charge by placing his name at the top of the mass head of the paper, made famous by the late Calvin Chase, who died a little more than a year ago. "Mr. Chas. L. Skinner has been associated with The Eagle off and on for several years and, severed his connection as advertising manager this week to better his condition. "The editor of The Eagle developed the new editor to the field of journalism as a chief and hopes that the next forty three years of the Bee may be greater both in honor and finance than the first forty three. "The latei-string of the Eagle is on the outside, and remember, Charlie, when the financial storm begins to rage, the racial blackguards begin to thunder, the backbiters and false witnesses begin to lightning and the old journalistic ship begins to rock and reel, remember that the latch string of the Eagle's door will ever be on the outside and you will find that same welcome that greeted your years ago."

MASONIC NEWS MASONIC DUTY It is greatly to be feared that a serious misconception of the duties which Masons owe to each other sometimes exists among some members of the Fraternity, and this gives rise among the outside world to an idea of Masquery which is at variance with its tenets and its principles.

Masonry acknowledges the supremacy of the law and inculcates an earnest loyalty to the established government. It enjoins upon its votaries the paramount duty of conducting them selves as peaceable citizens. At an early period in the initiation the candidate is truthfully assured that any obligation he may be called on to take will not conflict with his duty to his country, and he is enjoined to live soberly, act discreetly, and strictly to conform to the moral law. In the administration of justice true Masonry can never conflict with law. A Brother is not called upon to shield any criminal, even though the offender may have worn the white apron of innocence; but, on the contrary, Masonry teaches a strict recognition of the duties he owes as a man to the society in which he lives. As a judge a juror, a witness, he can recognize no distinctions between a Brother and a profane. Should any other line of conduct prevail the very foundation of our social system would be endangered, and the Order would incur the just odium of every honest man. MASONIC ENEMIES The two greatest enemies of Freemasonry are ignorance and apathy, with the opinion that a great deal of the latter proceeds from the preponderance of the former. Ignorance of what is included in and meant by the name of Freemasonry; ignorance of the meaning of its symbolism; ignorance of the methods advocated by the Institution by which its principles and teachings can be put into practice; ignorance of the satisfying feeling of accomplishment when the heights of its philosophy and ethics are gained, or when the knowledge is felt that progress toward those heights is being made; ignorance which is satisfied with superficial substitutes; ignorance which mistakes the shadow for the substance and is attracted by the glitter of tinsel, the euphony of high-flow titles, and the sonority of mere noise.—Duluth Calendar. MEANING OF THE WORD RAISED When a candidate has received the third degree, he is said to have been "raised" to the sublime degree of a Master Mason. The expression, according to Mackey, refers, materially, to a portion of the ceremony of initiation, but symbolically, to the resurrec- ```markdown ``` tion, which it is the object of the degree to exemplify.—Texas Freemason. There is no royal road to Masonic knowledge. We must work to obtain it. Keep your Masonic characters as spotless as your Masonic aprons should be. The brotherhood of man is a dream today, but it will be a reality tomorrow. AVOID SHORT-CUTS Freemasonry is under no necessity of accommodating itself to the caprices of individuals who wish to attain its honors and preferments by shortcuts. It is not honored by the accession of a man who, in some way, has become noted, nor by one who waits until he is ready for a vantage or a change of residence and business, and then applies for institution into its mysteries. Better never make such men Massors than to so lower the institution as to make it subsist to their convenience and caprices, for they never will appreciate the honor conferred, or, rather, the favor thus bestowed—Selected.

We cannot see thee, Never more will you return. But some day, we hope to meet you When our task on earth is done. Twas not in cruelty, not in wrath, that the reaper came that day; Twas only an angel, that visited the earth and took our darling away. Paceful be the silent slumber, peace- ful in the grave so low, Thou art absent from our number, Thou no more our songs shall know Still again we hope to meet you When the day of life is fled: Then in heaven we all will greet thee, Where no farewell tears are shed.

ANNUAL MEETING OF (Continued from Page ne) wick due to illness in his family and H. E. Perry, who was engaged in arranging for the annual meeting of the Standard Life Insurance Co. to be held the next day. Preceeding the stock holders meeting the directors met and spent several hours in going over the affairs of the company which delayed the meeting until G o'clock p. m., at which time first vice president, Carlton W. Galnes of Waycross, called the meeting to order. Finishing that a majority of stock was represented, the secretary-treasurer rend the year's report for himself and the president which gave, in a coneise manner, the condition of the affairs of the company for the year, at the close of business December 31, 1921. The reports showed the affairs of the company to be in excellent condition, the last half of the year being the most prosperous since the company was launched. A lengthy discussion of the reports elicited the fact that, with such a magnificent showing of the gains made in the last six months of the year just past, that the future hold out a glorious prospect for the new year, business far in advance of any reasonable estimate that could be made. The reports brought forth many for- variable comments from the stock- holders and all went away pledging their undivided support to make the Great Southern greater. The launching of this company has filled a long-felt want among our people. It is serving purposes that will protect our people from fire which they could not get, especially in the rural sections. The election of directors resulted in the following gentlemen being named: W. C. Thomas, L. E. Williams, Dr. H. R. Butler, Rev. A. D. Williams. C. W. Gaines, Dr D H. Brown, Rev. R. H. Singleton, Sol. C. Johnson, R. E. Pharrow, J. J. Wright, Dr. C. I. Calm, S. M. Scarlett J. S. Allen, C. A Clark, P. E. Perry. The directors in turn elected W. C. Thomas, president, Sol. C. Johnson, first vice president; Dr. H. R. Butler, second vice president; R. E. Pharrow, third vice president; J. J. Wright, fourth vice president; J. S. Allen, secretary treasurer with an executive committee composed of Sol. C. Johnson, Dr. H. R. Butler, J. S. Allen, R. E. Pharrow, J. J Wright. Standard Life Insurance Company Last Thursday was an active-one in the epaculous headquarters of the Standard Life Insurance Company. Thursday morning the executive committee met, followed by the meeting of the directors who passed on the reports of the officers. At two o'clock in the afternoon the stockholders crowded the well located assembly room of the company. After the usual preliminaries, the reports of the officers were gendered and unanimously approved. Aside from the very informing report of President Perry, those of Medical Examiner Cater and Superintendent of Agencies King, were of a high order and easily proved that President Perry is surrounded by an able set of assistants. Those two departments have always been ideal ones with the directors. Standard Life's business during the past year compares even more favorably than that of any of the old line companies. With plans now in hand, backed with a well organized agency force, this will be an unusual year for the company. Following are the directors of the company: Henry A. Boyd, Nashville, Tenn.; W. F.

(Continued from Page ne) (Continued from Page ne) tourists prepared to sail on the announced date, they met their first disappointment when they were informed by officials of the company that the ship was detained in New York, taking on cargo and could not sail until the 17th; when the 17th rolled around, another plausable excuse was advanced and from then until the present time excuse after excuse has been offered and the whereabouts of the ship that has now been nicknamed the phantom ship has not been revealed. Can't Get Their Money Back In addition to the suit entered by Mr. Peters, many other suits have been started both here and in New York by those who have parted with their good money and are now anxious to get it back. Mrs. FahaleR.Girens and Dr. Incey Porter of Louisville, Ky., who is their pail, mimehundred and ninety dollars to the company for passage to Africa have retained Attorney John C. Asbury to prosecute their claim against the promoters to whom they paid their money. The pieces of paper for which Mrs. Glives and Mrs. Porter paid nine hundred dollars call for one continuous passage from the United States to Africa on the S. S. Bryon, and are designated as tickets Nos. 15 and 10. Mrs. Glencs, who with Mrs. Porter, is temporarily located at 1701 S 19th street, in reciting her experience while endeavoring to get her money returned to her said: "That after being informed that nine men had bought the ship while being in dry dock, and this had entirely upset the plan of sailing. She was then offered one hundred dollars together with notes for the payment of the balance of her money if she and Mrs. Porter would return to their homes. Next she was offered four hundred and fifty dollars. All of these she refused, finally telling the official that she wanted all her money or the trip to Africa. Major York, an official of the company, then gave her a check on the Citizens and Southern Bank, 19th and South streets, covering the entire amount due her and Mrs. Porter. The bank according to Mrs. Glens, refused to honor the check, claiming that the money was not drawable by order of Mr. York, but by Mr. Wright, Jr., only. Mr. Wright, Sr., then informed her that the check would not be honored and that his son had no connection with the steamship company. Even though his name did appear on its printed matter as treasurer. Major York was again appalled to end told Mrs. Glirens that he had gone to the end of his rope and could go no further in aiding her. As a last resort, Mrs. Glirens says she has sought the protection of the law through her counselor, Mr. Asbury." The prominence of the men connect- "with this latest failure to carry out a business proposition for which thousands of dolphins have been collected from confiding members of the race, has cast a perplexing shadow over the business of legitimate colored enterprises—Philadelphi Tribune.

INTERESTING NEWS FOR FARMER NEGRO FARMERS MAKING GOOD In almost every community in the South there are to be found Negro farm who are not only making a decent living but buying land and improving it building comfortable dwellings, improving the grades of their farm animals giving liberal support to their schools and churches and bringing up their children in a manner that is altogether creditable and calculated to make of them good citizens. It is encouraging to note the increased interest on the part of many young men on the subject of farming as evidenced by the increasing popularity of the agricultural and mechanical colleges and the lively interest taken by them in the farmers conferences held in various parts of the South. The agricultural journals and make intelligent use of the bulletins issued by the agricultural departments of the various States and the United States is constantly increasing. Indeed it seems that if in one particular line of work more than any other the Negro has won for himself a place in the history of this country's progress, that work has been upon the farm. If one section of the country has profited more than another by his toll, that section is the South, whose toll he has tilled, whose wealth he has created, whose prosperity he has made possible. Then all us not be discouraged, but turn our faces to the sunlight of heaven and put forth our very best endeavors, confidently expecting to keep the full reward for our labors and obtain the full measure of manhood as a race; in this the land of the free and home of the brave. Read by Mrs. Westley Griffin at the Waycross District Farmers' Conference Jan. 6, 1922, at Waycross, Georgia. THE NEGRO AS A FARMER In order to properly appreciate the opportunities and advantages of farm life to ourselves and our children, we must have that love for the farm itself; its rocks, its woods, its hills, its shady rills and its meadows that, can come in no other way than through the proud sense of ownership. There must be the feeling of kinship through the very soil itself: the birds the bees, HAMPTON DEFEATS CARLISLE, 29 TO 19 Hampton, Va., Jan. 25th—Hampton defeated the Carlisle Field Club of Washington D. C. 29 to 19 in a hard-sought well-played game. This victory came as sweet revenge since the visitors won over Hampton last season 29 to 27. The first Lalf ended 11 to 10 in Hampton's favor, but at the beginning of the second half the "Seasiders" started sensational passing and shooting that took the Capital City boys off their feet. Before the timekeeper sounded his whistle Hampton had rolled up 29 points to Carlisle's 19. Both teams played a hard, clean game. Turner for the visitors and Saunders and Gunn for Hampton were the stars of the game. HOWARD WINS HIGH RAT ING IN PENN RELAY RACES Track Team Has Schedule Of Brilliant Events For Season Washington D. G., Jan. 25—Another year of brilliant indoor track and field successes is expected by the Howard University Track Team with the announcement of its entry in a number of meets for the coming season. The members of last year's track team have already reported to Coach Morrison for training and along with them have come a large number of recruits. Of the most significant events in which the Howard Track Team will participate this year in th Penn Relay Games to be held under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania on Franklin Field, Philadelphia, in April. This year Howard has been listed to compete in the One Mile College Relay against institutions having a higher rat in this event than those against whom she competed last year. Howard's success in the One Mile College Relay last year, having taken first place, tended to increase the interest in this college sport at the University and it is predicted that although the Varsity Relay Team is to compete in a faster class this year, it will becomingly acquit itself. Up to the present time, Howard University has been entered for the Melrose Games to be held at Madison Square Garden, New York City, on February 1, 1922, to compete in the 600 yard indoor run; the University is sending four men to participate in events in the Boston Athletic Association Girls Dormitory GA. STATE INDUSTRIAL COLLEGE is thirty yaers old, and yet the girls have never been accepted as boarders, because there has not been a dormitory for them. Why should not girls have the same opportunity to board as boys? You are now called upon to raise $10,000 of the $25,000, to match $25,000 from the General Education Board. State Supt. M. L. Brittain has given us, Friday, Feb. 17th, as "Industrial College Day" in colored schools.....On that day and during that week we hope to see $10,000 worth of Tags at 10c and 25c each. Won't you buy one? W emust not fail. C. G. WILEY, President the flowers must all be held dear to the heart of him who would know nature's choicest secrets and reap rich harvests from her beautiful storehouse. Favorable crop years and high prices for farm produce of every sort caused the Negro farmer in 1917-18 to be very prosperous. As an example Newton Smith of the Red Valley District near Shreveport, Louisiana is reported to own 1,000 acres of valuable land and to be worth over $200,000. In 1917 he sold 280 hales of cotton which together with the cotton seed sold netted $50,000. Henry Fennel, a Negro farm renter Ware County, Georgia with one mule and the help of his thirteen year old son produced a crop worth consider ably over $3,000. He made $1,850 worth of cotton, 500 bushels of corn, 2,000 bundles of fodder 40 bushels of sweet potatoes, 18 gallons of syrup, 77 pounds of rice, 700 pounds of bacon, besides vegetables, chickens and eggs for home use. Farms operated by Negroes in the year of 1886 amounted to 20,000; in 1919, 100,000. Gained in fifty-three years 980,000 farms. According to the report of R. S. Smith, the president of the Farmers Improvement Society of Texas, the Negro farmers of that state have made good. This farmer organization besides holding farmers meetings, fairs and conferences and working for improvement along all farming lines has on the co-operated plan established at Waco, a bank and an overall factory and at Ladonia an agricultural school. The number of Negro farmers conferences and fairs continue to increase The more important of the farmers conferences held were the State conferences of Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Tennessee and Texas; The Hampton Farmers Conference and the annual Tuskegee Negro Conference. If the Negro would put himself in position to successfully withstand this competition that will inevitably come, let him begin now by purchasing his stronghold, the farm and fortify himself or he may awake when it is too late to find himself without a home or the means to secure it. tion Games to be held i n Boston, Mass., on the 5th of February. Two teams are to be entered in the Penn Relay Games to be held on Franklin Field, Philadelphia, Pa., on April 29th and 30th, 1922. Last year only the varsity team was sent to these games composed of Messrs. Craft, Contee, Perry, and Robinson. This team won its event over a large number of competitors. A Freshman team and a Varsity team will compete in the games this year. Howard Track Team Be Held in Spring As a closing event of the track season, Howard University will hold its Third Annual Track and Field Meet on its campus on May 13th, 1922.

The meet this year is expected to eclipse the two previous meets held at Howard University. Banners with the names of each school participating in the meet will be awarded the winning teams as a school trophy and a suitable medal will be awarded to each individual winner. Track Stars To Be In Attendance As an added attraction to the Howard Track Meet to be held in May, invitations will be sent to such men as Gourdin, the world's champion jumper, Shelbourne, Watson and Earl Johnson, recognized track stars, requesting them to enter for special events. The Department of Physical Education of the Howard University, under whose auspices the meet is to be held, invites the representatives of the various colored newspapers to meet for the purpose of giving the general public their impressions of the meet, its object, and the results obtained by the individuals as well as the schools they represent. TO DEVELOP INTEREST IN VARIOUS GAMES Washington, D. C., Jan. 25th-On account of the increased enrollment at Howard University, the Department of Physical Education has recently acquired new gymnasium equipment, including dumbells, Indian clubs, swinging hoops, climbing ropes etc. The installation of this new equipment affords opportunity for a larger number of the young men and women of the University for further development of Physical Education to give more intensive instruction in the gymnasium work. Group games are being planned for the coming season both among the young women and young men of the University. Interest in Volley Ball, Hockey, Cricket, Tennis, etc., will be encouraged among all in order that larger groups may have the recreational benefit of these games. (Continued from Page ne) tion of the race to the principles of liberty and justice which Colonel Young held so sacred. Eighth Regiment Joins Plan Speaking in behalf of the Eighth Regiment of Illinois, Colonel Duncan, the commanding officer, heartily approves of the idea of memorial services for Colonel Young. "We will have a great military parade in Chicago, in which the entire regiment, headed by the full-regimental band, will turn out "We will invite every former soldier in the city to take part in the parade, and especially the men of the regular army, all of whom knew Colonel Young and loved him," declared the Colonel. Continuing, he said: "Such an event as proposed will be an inspiration to the entire race, and will once more impress the entire people of the country with the patriotic devotion of the colored Americans "Recently in Washington, there was great, and deserving homage paid to the 'unknown soldier.' "We now have an opportunity to honor a known soldier, one whose life was given in the cause of his country." In New York the fifteenth Regiment is discussing plans to honor Col. Young in an appropriate manner. Full details have not been learned concerning the disposal of the body, but it is likely that it will be brought to the United States at an early date. While Colonel Young spent his early life in Zanesville, Ohio, where his father is buried, in late years he lived in Wilberforce, Ohio, where his mother now lives in a most beautiful modern home provided by the Colonel Should it be decided to bury Colonel Young in Arlington cemetery, citizens of Washington plan to make it one of the most notable military funerals ever [Name] COL CHARLES YOUNG held in the Capital President Harding himself an Okloan, and who knew Colonel Young personally, would be invited to attend the services The passing of a pictureque and interesting figure in American Army life was recorded in a cablegram to the State Department from Monrovia, Liberia, which reported the death of Colonel Young, formerly of the Tenth United States Calvary, who commanded a squadron in General Pershing's punitive expedition into Mexico against Villa, and the only member of the Negro race to reach the rank of Colonel in the regular army of the United States.

COUNTY INSTITUTE VERY SUCCESSFUL Sylvanla, Ga., Jan 10th—The County Institute which was held here at St. Androws M. E. church, Rev. H. Odum, pastor, was very successful. The meet- Rally! HIS LAST LOVE LETTER HIS LAST LOVE LETTER IN "Anchor 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 package 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 your unchanging love. I am writing this alone in the office, where I sit thinking how old and how large the lads will be when you get this letter. Very old, I hope. This is my last love-letter. Do you remember the first? How strange it seemed to be writing it, and how happy I was! I wanted you so! And do you remember the answer you wrote? I shall never forget it. You will find it with my valuables. Now I am writing my last, and I am happy, for no shadow makes me think it will soon be read. With my first letters I sent you flowers; with this I enclose a life insurance policy. You may be surprised how I managed, with the expense of the family, to keep the policy paid. But you will remember we often did without things we wanted and you will know why, after your long illness, I borrowed money. I was tempted sometimes to let it drop, but I was afraid to. My love for you said 'No.' Now it is yours—and the children's—and you need not want for any necessary comforts if you manage well. This knowledge makes it worth ten times over what the policy has cost. That is all. It comes to you as an expression of my love. May God bless and keep you and the babies—H. E."—From the Virginian.
