C. M. E. CHURCH HOLDS GENERAL CONFERENCE
Sessions Prove Interesting And Profitable To All Present.
* St. Louis, Mo. - The fourteenth quadrennial session of the Colored Methodist Episcopal church, recently held in St. Louis, Mo. was the record breaking session of the connection in many respects. There was upward of 500 delegates from every section of the nation. This was the largest in the history of the church. The men were well chosen and expressed much independence of thought and action.
the conference did many things. The messages of the bishops, the quadrennial sermon, the memorial of Bishops Holsey and Jamaon, the ordination sermon were history making. The bishops's message was read by Bishop Carter. It was profound and far reaching. It dealt with lynching, the ballot, better accommodation on the railroads and urged that the church of God help the world readjust its weighty problems under the guidance of the golden rule. The sermon was delivered by Bishop Cleaves. It was deeply spiritual, scholarly and stirred the vast audience. The address of Bishop Williams upon the life and times of Bishop Holsey was realistic, powerful, philosophic and eloquently rendered. The ordination sermon was preached by Bishop Phillips and as usual it was rich.
The automatic retirement law was repealed. This law retired bishops at 70. The present law gives the General Conference power to retire the bishops at will for cause. A new department was created, known as the Financial department. This department was gut in the hands of the Laymen, who will handle all the finance of the church. An attempt was made to pass a law giving women the right to be elected delegates to the General Conference but failed. The conference went on record as courting for organic union with the other colored churches.
Many able men visited and addressed the conference. Among them were Doctors' George E. Haynes, Federal Council of Churches of Christ; Wm. Pickens, filed secretary, National Association; Carter G. Woodson, Washington, D. C. and Representative Dyer. D. C. brought unfilting messages
The election was quite interesting, four bishops being elected, as follows: R. T. Brown, Birmingham, Ala.; J. C. Martilh, Jackson, Tenn.; J. A. Haulet, Topeka, Kansas, and J W. McKinney, Sherman, Tex.
The general officers are: H. P. Porter, book agent, Tyler, Tex.; G. F. Porter, financial secretary, Jackson, Tenn.; G. C. Parker, editor Christian Index, Durham, N. C.; J. A. Martin, editor Sunday School Department, Macon, Ga.; R. S. Stout, Church Extension, Louisville, Ky.; J. A. Bray, Education, Birmingham, Ala.; H. J. Moore, Missions, Holly Springs, Miss.; A. R. Calhoun, Epworth League, Tine Bluff, Ark, and C. H. Copland* Supernumerated Preachers Department, Madisonville, Ky.
Haven Home School Closing
This week marked the closing of Haven Home School, situated on the Montgomery cross road about five miles from the city and which is beyond doubt the best equipped school plant in this section of the state.
One could easily see who visited any of the closing days exercises, that the students who are under the careful instructions of such an able set of teachers, headed by Miss E Mae Comfort, as superintendent and Miss Georgiana Hurl, as principal, are well trained and are being nicely fitted to take their places in the world.
The exercises began Sunday, when the baccalaureate sermon was ably delivered by Rev. F. R. Brigges, pastor of Palen Memorial M. E. Church. On Wednesday afternoon the commencement exercises were held with the Rev. J. Henry Brown, archdeacon of the local Protestant Episcopal Church, as principal speaker. His remarks were well fitted for the occasion and his beautiful illustrations of the life that is before those who are leading school, should be beneficial in mapping out the future lives of the class of 1922. Rev. Brown's subject was "Some of the Elements that Make up a Successful Life." Mary Elizabeth Butter as valedictorian of the class, was excellent in her expression and as salutiorian Christen Grimer was very generously received. "Personal Influence" by Pender Jackson was beautifully handled
Nathan Kemp, the young man in the graduating class, greatly impressed the audience in his delivery of an oration on "Power in his Aim". In fact all the participants acquitted themselves admirably and the singing was splendid.
There were sixteen young women and one young man who received diplomas in recognition of their having finished the eight grade course. The presentation of diplomas was made by the Rev. W. G. Alexander Aside

PROF. KING AT WORLD'S CONFERENCE
Makes Appeal for Greater Consideration For Negroes.
Pekin, China May 9 - Prof Willis J. King, of Gammon, Theological Seminary, Atlanta, Ga., U. S. A., addressing the eleventh conference of the World's Student Christian federation on behalf of the Negro race, made a stirring appeal for greater consideration in the affairs of the world and gave a lucid presentation of the chief problems of the Negro race. He pointed out that the Negro race approximates, nearly one-fifth of the world's present population and therefore should have a greater voice in helping to formulate world policies. Delegates from twenty-nine countries are attending the conference, which is being held here at Tsing Hua College, a government school for boys. Of the more than 700 delegates in attendance, about 450 are Chinese-Professor King is the only representative of the Negro race.
Prof. King expects to visit a number of student centers in China after the close of the conference April 9. in order to study the mission and government educational system and the federation conference. He expects to return to the United States early in June, sailing from Shanghai in May on the S. S. Empress of Asia.

SAVANNAH. GA., THURSDAY. MAY 25th. 1922
SAYS CITIZENS
MUST.. CURB
LYNCH SPIRIT
Believes Anti-Mob Organization. Would. Be Effective.
Expressing the belief that an anti mob organization of citizens in every community, ready to assemble quickly, could "prevent hot-headed action and give sober second thought a chance to prevail," Col G. Arthur Gordon in a timely communication addressed to the Morning News discusses the growing menace of the mob spirit and offers some original suggestions for the suppression of the evil which is bringing disgrace to the.state. His views are given as follows: Newspaper readers have been shocked and horrified by the disturdy murder near Davisboro, and the lynching which followed. The sympathy of the entire state goes out to the husband and family of the splendid young woman so brutally assassinated while in the discharge of her public duties.
Every thoughtful citizen deplores such crimes, and their consequences. Unquestionably, they are on the increase and I. in common with all who feel any sense of responsibility for the future, have been thinking very soberly about conditions in this state, and about the best means of improving them.
Frequently, during the past five years, I have heard men, whose opinion I respected, exclaim, with bitterness:
"I am a Georgian, but I am ashamed of my state"
In the light of the many recent unhappy occurrences, I, too, desire to go on record as follows:
"I am a Georgian, and I am ashamed not of my state, but of myself."
And the reason will become apparent to anyone who has the patience to read this communication to its conclusion.
Why is it that these ignerant, half-crazed brutes, with men's bodies and minds of children, commit these terrible crimes? Exactly the same race lived amongst us before and during and immediately after the Civil War. When the white men were away in the Confederate army, and the women were left alone, surrounded by the Negroes, not one instance of assault or murder was recorded. And this was not due to the cowed timidity of slaves, for they often showed courage in opposing bushwackers and bummers who wished to molest the white families.
May it not be that the difference in the behavior of the Negro is the result, of the difference in the attitude adopted toward him by the white man? Why is it that groups of men and boys, reported to be cold sober, solemnly believe that they are dealing out justice, protecting their women, and striking terror into the hearts of other would-be criminals, when they kill the perpetrators of these four crimes? The savage is close under the skin of all of us, and if anyone doubts that we white citizens are going backward in the scale of civilization, let it be remembered that formerly lynchers killed by hanging, usually shooting simultaneously; the next step was burning at the stake; now, torture precedes the burning. Is the public exhibition of this torture, and the gloating over the agony of the dying elevating to the Christian character of the lynchers and spectators? Is it likely that we, who think ourselves so safe, are going to escape the consequences of this spirit? Is it possible that we, who imagine ourselves so superior, fail to realize that we are responsible for the existence of conditions which make possible both the crime and the lynching?
This country is governed by public opinion. Public opinion is created by leadership. If those who believe in character and self-control and patience and responsibility and the age-long foundations of progress and civilization, ablicate leadership, keep silence, and fold their hands, then let no one wonder to see leaders rise who appeal to prejudice, passion, ignorance and license.
And that is why I am ashamed of, not others, or my state, but myself. Believing as I do, and keeping silent, I am just as responsible for the atmosphere of lawlessness as the criminal I abhor, and the lyncher I disapprove of.
There is no "happy thought" remedy for the present state of affairs. Outside interference and "holier than thou" criticism get us nowhere. I have no faith in state constabulary or federal lynch laws. Punishment of lynchers will no more stop lynching
BOY'S BAND WINS PRIZE
Philadelphia, Pa., May 24th ('Associated Negro Press')—In the parade beginning Boy's Week in Philadelphia, in which 52,000 are supposed to have been in line, the third prize was awarded to the Colored Boy's Band. Another colored boy was awarded the prize of a bicycle. Colored boys held their, own in the parade; several divisions being led by small colored boys.
Rousing Meeting of Business League
Prominent Visitors Present and Tangible Work Planned
The local Business League held a rousing meeting last Friday night at Young's Cafe. The attendance was one of the largest in recent years and the spirit displayed proved that the members are determined to make the business Interest felt in the community. President Dilworth presided.
The league was favored with the presence of Supreme Commander C. M. White, of the American Woodmen, and several of his officers. Mr. White gave a thickly address which was well received and responded to by Mr. L. E. Williams.
Several new members were received and a campaign will be inaugurated to induce every colord man in business to become members.
A committee composed of M. G. Robertson, Jr., H. M. Collier, M. D. and P. Edward Perry, were appointed to work in adjunct with the white merchants for the extending of a white way on West Broad street.
Another important committee composed of Sol. C. Johnson, "L. E. Williams, J. W. Jamerson, J. G. Lennon and Frank Dilworth was appointed to confer with President Winburn of the Central of Georgia for the furnishing of sleeping car accommodation between Savannah and Atlanta. It is the purpose of this committee to bring every possible influence to bear in order to secure this much needed accommodation.
President Dilworth is determined to make the meetings of the league short and snappy. At the next meeting Dr. H. M. Collier will give a short talk from the doctor's standpoint. At each meeting various ones will be asked to make short talks.
Mr. Young has kindly tendered the use of his place for meeting purposes. This was accepted with a rising vote of thanks.
After the meeting refreshments were served and all went away with the purpose of causing the league to function as it has never done before.
ANDY MONROE
AWARDED
$25.00 DAMAGE
He Wanted One Thousand Dollars
Last September a short local article was published in The Tribune, about the assault on Mr A M Monroe, the article stating that Andy, his son, made the assault, and that he was arrested. It was brought out in the evidence that the basis of the article was correct for the father was locked in a room and was assaulted by a member of the family, but the evidence was not convincing to prove that Andy assaulted him, even though he was present. He was not arrested at this time, as stated, but from the court records he has been arrested several times and even fined in the city court. The jury awarded him $25.00 hardly enough to pay his lawyer's fee. We had to pay the cost of account to $19.40. Attorneys J·G. Lemon and H·E. Wilson represented us while Mr. J. It Kawceff represented Andy. In his argument Andy's lawyer took occasion to speak commendably of the editor of The Tribune.
REGULARS AND RESERVES
PART OF POLICE PARADE
New York, N. X, May 21th (Associated Negro Press) - Ten of our regular policemen and 120 of our police reserves formed a part of the big New York City police parade last Saturday. The John Wannamaker Band, of Philadelphia, representing the race, was also in the line of march. More than 6,000 officers formed the parade. New York always turns out loyally to do homage to its bluecoats and last Saturday was no exception. Mayor John F. Hylan, carrying a small flag, resplendant in high hat and cut-out coat marched at the head of the parade to the reviewing stand at the Worth Monument where a presentation of medals to honor men occurred. Our regular policemen marched with the men from their precinct, the 38th. All made an excellent showing
The Brooklyn contingent of reserves were from the 87 and 93d precinct, and were under command of Lieut. W. W. Fletcher and Lieut Ashton. The Manhattan reserves from the 38th precinct were in command of Capt. White. As the two squarms came from different boroughs; they did not march together.

New York, N. Y., May 24th (Associated Negro Press)—Patrolman Henry L. Pohnord, the patrolman who was shot by Hugh Chambers a few days ago died May 11 at Harlem Hospital. Louie Leavelle, who was also shot by Chambers at the same time, is improving. Chambers who became enraged at Leavelle's alleged refusal to pay him a debt of $197 opened fire on the lawyer.

Hampton Offers New Courses
Hampton, Va., May 21—Hampton Institute in its present organization offers programs of studies in four schools of normal and college grade and in two schools of secondary grade. For the completion of the Agricultural School standard, four-year college course (thirty-six months), Hampton Institute will grant the degree of bachelor of science in agricultural education and for the completion of the Normal School standard, four-year college course, it will grant the degree of bachelor of arts in education. Appropriate diplomas will be awarded to students who complete all other courses.
Warren K. Bloedget, director of the Agricultural School, says: "The aim of the college course is to give young men an opportunity to develop within themselves industry, intellectual power, initiative, and ideals to fit themselves to meet the problems of present-day rural life. Today the teacher of agriculture and the county farm-demonstration agent have a strong influence on the development of rural life. This course aims to prepare a man to become an agricultural teacher of agriculture and the county county farm demonstration agent. It also offers a broad scientific and technical education for one who wishes to farm in a modern, progressive way.
"It is not a course in one special branch of technical agriculture of science. More than one-half of the work is not in strictly agricultural subjects, but is in such subjects as English and social science, including economics. The plan is to prepare agricultural teachers through a broad acquaintance with the whole rural-life problem." Director Bloedgett and his associates have arranged courses in six subject groups-English, social science, science mathematics, physics, and rural engineering, agriculture, and agricultural education.
The Agricultural School equipment at Hampton Institute now includes an agricultural library and study-room with more than 350 of the newest reference books and a number of scientific and farm magazines; the Whipple Farm of 70 acres with modern dairy barn, cremery, greenhooses, horse barn, poultry plant, poultry-breeding station and a horticultural department devoted to growing vegetables and fruits; the Shellbans Farm of 850 acres, easily accessible to agricultural classes, with a dairy herd of ninety Holstel and Guernsey cows, two pure-bred bulls, three silos, twenty-eight horses and mules, tractors and modern farm
Chicago, Ma 22—(Associated Negro Press)—Colored American musicians have founded and incorporated a University of Music in Chicago. Who should more fitly build a university of music in America that its Negroes, who are the soul of its music?
This university is located in the beautiful home of Madam Schumann-Helnck, at 38th and Michigan Avenue. It is the house in which the great singer lived and rehearsed, and where her sons were born. She has let this beautiful mansion to the music school at a normal rental, and she herself has the pleasure of attending the opening exercises. On the corner opposite are the palatinin residences of the Armours, who built theirs out of hogs, white Madam built out of music, and it might be observed in passing that while the singer is dedicating her home to the genius of music, the Armours are tearing down one of their gawdy palaces to be replaced by a commercial garage.
Pauline James Lee, who used to do service with Madam Hackley, is the president of the Imposing faculty of this new university and among her teaching force will appear such well-known names as Major N. Clark Smith, Florence Cole Talbot, Clarence Cameron White and a score of others.
They will give instructions not only in all voice and on all instruments but also in English diction and foreign languages, in dancing, acting and dramatics, in composition and in music history and pedagogy. The mansion has a beautiful dance and music hall on the third floor.
COLORED BAPT. WILL. HOLD CONFERENCE
Many Vital Topics to Be Discussed At World's Conference
London, England, May 9—At the time of the general convocation of Baptists of the world here during July and August, there will be held a world conference of Colored Baptists. The purposes are:
1. To enable colored Baptists of the world to discuss a constructive program for more extensive missionary work in Africa, South America, and the Isles of the Sea.
2. To consider the establishment in Africa and elsewhere of Industrial schools after the model of Hampton and Tuskegee.
3. To obtain permission for Colored American Missionaries to preach the gospel in Africa without restrictions.
4. To enable colored Baptists to know one another.
The National Baptist convention (unincorporated) Dr. E. P. Jones, president, at its annual meeting in New Orleans last September appointed one hundred messengers to attend the conference in England and Paris. The Woman's Auxiliary to the Convention appointed the president, Mrs. Ashburn and Corresponding Secretary, Mrs. M. Fulte, to be messengers also. The incorporated convention did not take any action as a body; but Rev. Hercules reports that Dr. Morris is not opposed to the movement and a number of their men are expected to go.
LARGE AUDIENCE GREETS SYMPHONY ORCHESTRY
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., May 24th (Associated Negro Press)—Three thousand colored and white citizens greeted Modest Altschuler, and his Russian Symphony Orchestra, upon their first appearance at Tuskegee Institute, Saturday evening. The orchestra, in every way maintained its reputation as one of the best orchestral organizations in the country. It surpassed by far anything of a like nature heard at the Institute. The fifty pieces are well balanced and the musicians are of a very high order, with Seuta Hoffman, harp; Staislaw Schapiro, violin, and Max Gegna 'cello as the soloists.
Modest Altschuler won a warm place in the hearts of his audience both by the brilliant rendition of the program and by his generosity in responding with encores to the thunderous applause which followed each number. He made that place more substantial with his colored hearers by his tribute to Nathaniel Dett as a musician and a compo-er, and by his deciation that Alexander Poughshkin was "the father of the pure Russian language" | The orchestra came to Tuskegee Institute at the invitation of Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal, and through the co-operation of the Mobile and OaI the Tuskegee and the Atlanta and West Point Railroads, which provided a special service for the transportation of the orchestra from Columbus, Mississippi.

NEGROES SUPPORTING PROGRESSIVES
Dispair And Dissatisfaction Being Noticed on All Side
Washington, D. G., Ma. 22—(Associated Negro Press)—Gifford Pinchot, nominated for governor of Pennsylvania, following the nomination of Albert J. Beverage for Senator in Indiana, defeating Senator New, has caused conservative Republicans of the nation's capitol to "sit up and take notice."
The Associated Negro Press is in receipt of direct information from Indiana, concerning the attitude of colored voters. This information come from an unbiased source, and frankly explains the attitude of colored voters. Republican candidates with colored constituents, are urged to "listen, and govern themselves accordingly."
Indiana Negroes felt more cordial to Senator New than to former Senator Beveridge, but Beveridge elided the party for failure to pass the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, and declared he would "bring the bill out of the pigeon hole if elected." This condition together with disgruntled feelings on other national matters, caused thousands of colored voters to remain at home. "Unhyle the Republicans get busy," writes the A. N. P. informant, "thousands of the two people will vote the Democratic ticket next fall as a protest."
In Pennsylvania Republican primaries, Gifford Pinchot, the Theodore Roosevelt friendship, proved himself the statesman, while Alter, his opponent, proved himself the demagogic politician. The Anti-Lynching Bill was an important factor in the primaries, as it will be in all subsequent primaries, and next fall's election. Alter ignored an inquiry with reference to his attitude on the bill, and it is authoritatively claimed that he is against the measure, while Pinchot came out with a strong endorsement for the bill, and declared, over his signature, that he believes in the Roosevelt "squama deal," and all men up, not some men down." This declaration, together with the late Penrose machine attitude on the civil rights bill, that failed passage, drove colored voters straight to Pinchot by the thousands. The Philadelphia Advocate, of which Robert J. Nelson is editor, in a remarkable prediction prior to the election, came out bold for Pinchot, and declared he would be nominated.
The entire turn of events points to an amazing political turn of events that will end, none can say 'where. Here in Washington all sorts of things are being predicted, and the "easy going methods" are giving away to earnest consideration of facts.
Can the old line methods hold? The latest primaries have answered, No, most emphatically. Will colored Americans "eat any old corn in the barnyard." Not that it can be noticed. There is no argument of the most cordial friend of Republican policies that could be advanced which will cause voters in various states to be enthused unless there is a decided change of front, and an absolute 'hewing to the line of justice.'
Lily-white policies of the party, "sleeping at the switch" on the Anti-Lynching Bill, failure to make major appointments of Negroes, and an earnest effort to live up to the principles of the Constitution, which was promised in campaign speeches, have so discouraged both leaders and people, that the road of the future is rocky and filled with dispair. The sentiment of the times is reflected most depressingly in the editorial expressions of newspapers from one end of the country to the other.

Supreme Grand Temple Successful Sessions
The special session of the U. B. of A. which convened Monday at its headquarters proved a success from every view point. Reports from every part of the jurisdiction showed the membership to be active and energetic as well as gaining ground. The reports of the Supreme Officers showed the order to be in good shape both financially and numerically. The literary program of the morning session was well rendered. The papers and speeches which were rendered teemed with a brilliance and profundity of thoughts which reflected creditably on the intelligence of those delivering them as well as of this great racial order of which they are a part.
The business which was presented to the session in the form of reports and recommendations by the S. G. A. and other supreme officers was quickly and intelligently disposed of. All of the deputies and leaders of the various districts of the jurisdiction were of the unanimous opinion that the newly enacted laws will prove both beneficial to the individual members and the order at large. The entire body commended the wisdom and forethought of the C. G. A. and the other members of the board for issuing of the call for the session. After the conclusion of the business, an excellent literary concert was rendered by the junior department of the local district. Miss Mary Singleton of Alpha Temple No. 1, Leola Mention of

A TALENTED YOUNG MAN
Washington, D. C.—(Preston News Service)—Arriving in the United States from the Virgin Islands about a week ago a very modest and quiet young man dressed in the uniform of a naval band master appeared in Washigton, D. C. This person was none other than Alton A. Adams, the only Negro, to our knowledge, holding such a position in the United States Navy. Young Adams was the leader of a boys' band when Uncle Sam took possession of the former Danish West Indies, and recognizing his ability he was, with his hand, ushered into the services to furnish entertainment for the Naval Station maintained at St. Thomas.
Rear Admiral Oliver, who was formerly governor of the island, thought a great dept of Admins and did much to advance the young man who is today recognized as one of the most efficient in his line. Aside from being a very able musician he is also a splendid writer and composer; his contributions

to musical magazines here in America being received in a manner which should give him good reason to feel proud. Recently he started the St. Thomas Times, a paper which, while devoted to the activities of the band and the naval station, covers news of interest to the people of the Virgin Islands. From the couples which came into the hands of the writer we are of the opinion that it is the best paper now being published on the Islands, setting a pace which both the Bulletin and the Mall notes find it extremely hard to follow. After a brief visit to New York City Adams will return to the Islands to resume his duties.

MOTION PICTURES
Next Monday afternoon and evening
May 29, the Catholic Art Association
will present its third wonderful motion
picture, "The Eternal Light" at
East Benedict's school auditorium, 552
East Gordon street.
This picture in eight parts, is a gorgeous magnificent masterpiece, the sudden the most tragic, and the sublimest story in all the world. The scenes in "The Nearal Light" were actually taken in the Holy land in the very places where the original scenes of redemption were enacted. To see depicted under our eyes the most wonderful of all dramas amid the very scenes where they occurred, is a rare privilege indeed. The coming of Mart across the limitless desert, with their great caravans, makes a gorgeous and wonderful spectacle. Thousands of people were engaged in making this and other scenes, such as the entry in to Jerusalem, the conflagration etc. In seeing "The Nearal Light," you will be able to realize as never before the story of our Lord's Passion, the equality, the terrible suffering the profound agony. No heart so strong but it will soften and answer to the call of Divine Love as depicted in this the sublimest photoyear ever produced.
The priests and members of St. Benedict's church, again extend a cordial invitation to their many Christian friends, to come and witness this most wonderful photoplay, pronounced by thousands as the best that the Catholic Art Association has so far produced. We pledge our word of honor that no one will go home disappointed. This will be the last picture to be presented during this summer. Admission is 10 cents. for children and 25 cents for adults.

Since leaving Chicago, her home, last spring, she has taken additional training in flying in France and arranged for the purchase of a machine which she plans to use in the school she is to establish in Chicago on her return.

UNWORTHY NEGRO MEN
Recently it has been published that several Negro men have been accused of insulting white women on the streets. At least one of them was arrested for the offense. We have no patience with any man, especially one of ours, who would so far forget himself as to molest any woman on the public streets or elsewhere.
Upon them the severest punishment should be inflicted. In Savannah the relationship between the races has been and is very cordial, and nothing must be done to mar it. We will not allow them to be so inflicted, so would so far forget himself in consulting any offense that will cause race feeling or strife.
WAR DEAD MEMORIALIZED
It must, indeed, be a source of much gratification to the citizens of this county to know that her soldier boys who lost their lives in the service of their country during the World War are to be fittingly memorialized. They gave their all to their country and it is no more than proper that this community should pay them all the honor of which it is capable.
On next Tuesday, the laying of the corner stone of the monument to be erected to our dead heroes of this war will be held and at these exercises the nearest of kin of the local soldiers who gave their lives in this great struggle will be given the seats of honor. This monument is to be a testimental to the glory of all of the soldiers of Chatham county who made the supreme sacrifice in this great conflict and it will go a long way toward immortalizing the valor of our brave boys who are now sleeping beneath the sod, either in America or in France. The erection of this memorial to the memory of our dead soldiers is truly an act of which we should all take cognizance, because it shows that we have an unifying respect for those who gave their lives for their country.
FR. J. HENY BROWN
Since the coming to Georgia of Father J. Henry Brown, and his promotions to the archacademy of this diocese, the work of the Episcopalians among our people in this section has progressed as never before. Fr. Brown is an alert and efficient leader. Beginning with his own church St. Augustine, he has made it a telling force in the community. The church has been thoroughly renovated, pipe organ installed, the parish house done over, and the membership wonderfully increased. His labors in the mission field of the diocese has been equally successful, and he is bringing the work of the colored churchmen to the attention of the white churchmen in a favorable light. This was clearly the result of the annual convention of the diocese of Georgia, which wah held at Christ church week. He and Mr. J. C. Dallignon of Brunswick, represented the colored work of the diocese, and in his report to the convention, it bristled with so many salient points of interest, that the stamach Episcopalians, for one time violated the usual custom by vigorously applauding him. The colored churchmen should be proud. Of Father Brown. In this they are joined by all of his friends.
The following clipping was taken from The Press of last Thursday, under the head of "A Strong Address": "The report of 'the colored, archdeacon of the diocese,' Itev. J. H. Brown, was a revelation to the convention, and was listened to with the profound interest, calling forth at 19 close spontaneous applause, which the chairman declared, though a little unusual in color, a splendid merited. It recorded a splendid record of the activities of the Negro work in the diocese, which has been accomplished at times against many difficulties; and with a lack of publicity, which the speaker said was a serious handicap.
"He mentioned, however, many personal instances of the co-operation and assistance of the white clergy in broadcasting and encouraging the work, and paid an especially grateful tribute to Bisha. These, whose help has been unutilized, and whose encouragement has been a great stimulus. The colored parish, he declared, have given over $2,000 to the nation wide campaign, and the Colored Women's Auxiliary have contributed substantially to the united thanks offering.
JEWS AND CATHOLICS UNITE
Columbus, Ga., May 15—For the first time in the history of the world, Jews and Catholics united to hold a joint service at Fort Bening, under the auspices of the Holy Society and the Jewish Welfare Board of Bening, a joint Mother's Day and flag dedication service was held at the Catholic chapel at the fort.
OUR DAILY BREAD
While the black people are raving over the Ku Klux Klan, the Hatian situation and the prolongation of the Lynch Law, the white man shrewdly and allyly ignores these issues and skillfully profits from the labor of the black man and exploits him to his heart's content. The American black man without a doubt is the most exploited civilized human in the sweep of this Solar System.
He works for less money, puts in longer hours, receives less pay than any other group in the Federation of States. He, after receiving his meager pittance, is systematically robbed of the most part. He pays more to live and receives less for his money than any other American citizen and the appalling feature is that he does not insize how he is duped, cheated and received.
If the black race would be returned an equitable interest in the money that is hitched from them, each money, they would be able to buy cut many of the students and systems that have grown fat off of their suplarity and ignorance.
Our Jewish friends have been faced
our salesmen for the last six
thousand years. They not only know how
to buy low, but they know how to sell
high, and no extraordinary mentality
is needed to understand why they first
the black peoples districts. The
black people have been gulled to the
arts and wites of the crafty Jewish
merchants and salesmen that taking
their money is like puffering candy
away from a baby.
Wherever the black people can be
found in America, regardless of whether
it be in the distant West or the externe
East, if in the highest point South,
wherever the black people are their
commercial shadow, the Jew, will be
found, and not even the lesson taught
by experience has weaned the black
people from these exploits, who have
oled them white and rode away in
high-powered machines to lay back in
beds of luxury and gloot gleefully over
the easy marks.
If lessons were taught to black people on buying, selling, bartering and trading, it less time were spent on myrm singling and dry-eyed mooning over the devil's doings, surely, these cleverly contrived robbery, or black people would be brought to an impromptu halt.
The black people live in neighborhood where the cheapest merchandise is dispensed at the highest prices. The rooststuff that they pay first-class prices for are as a rule what is known as "seconds." Not only the Jewish people thrive from this practice but Gentiles who mercenally grind human flesh through their money-making machines reap full harvest is desired that the black people be awakened to the fact that they are being robbed by daylight burglaries who use, short weights and measures and palm off rotten food and inferior commodities.
It is not a problem to be worked by mathematicians nor scientists, but the average person can see through the scheme which has caused their fellowmen to grow poor, while the dealers in their immediate neighborhoods grow richer. We hear every day in Chicago of go-butters and storekeepers controlling millions of dollars and debugging a few years into their histories would disclose the fact that they gor their footholds in the "black belt." He is real work for the business league to amplify. Here is a task for the church broaden. Teach us how to buy our daily bread and how to bargain for the roof over our heads and the ralment which covers our bodies. -Chicago Whip
INCONNISTENCY vs CONSISTENCY
It does not seem possible to keep discussion of the relations between the white and the Negro races out of this column. "I read your article on the McKay incident," writes R. E. L. who identifies himself as a Southern lawyer, "and I wonder if you'll be fair enough to read this little commentary—all of it." We have done so and we are accordingly depressed because the letter illustrates very forcefully the prevailing tendency of disorderly thinking which makes all improvement in present day conditions so difficult. For instance, we wrote in protest against the practice of New York theaters in barring Negroes from orchestra seats and assembling them to the first balcony. R. E. L. writes that, because we want to have a black child, the color and number of children in any given family seems to us to be strictly the concern of the parents, and we can't for the life of us see what it has to do with the seating arrangements of Broadway theaters.
Again we find in R. E. L. letter the extraordinary statement, "You must admit that the South is coping successfully with the Negro question." Of course, we will admit nothing of the sort. Indeed, we are horrified that anybody should have the hardship to make such a claim less than a week after the recent atrocity in Texas. As a matter of fact, the phase "Negro question" is hardly adequate. It is just as much the "white question." we must consider ways and means to educate or isolate those communities in which lynchings occur. It is, unendurable that certain sections of this country shall continue to believe and act upon the theory that the only adequate answer to revolting crime is more crime.
---
"If you intend to draw a line anywhere," writes R. E. L., "we of the South will show you where to draw it. Draw it at the beginning. Accept or sanction no form of social equality. Your line of demarcation then must include the theatre, the dance hall, the restaurant, the hotel, the schools, the churches, the Pullman car, dining car, . . ."
This we find interesting, as it illustrates a certain attitude toward the church which would identify religion

as a sort or spiritual table dhote of nothing more than social significance.
"If a Negro educates himself to my level" continues, R. E. L., "I will meet him as an equal intellectually, but socially never."
Society which depends on anything but intellectual parity seems to us of no importance. This is a distinction entirely too fine for our understanding. We can only guess as to our correspondent's meaning. We think that he intends to say that he cannot ablide the thought of interbreeding between the white and the Negro races. Indeed, he has an uneeded bearing upon this question.
"Now I know," he writes, "two Negro girls who couldn't be identified as Negroes in the little Southern town where they lived except for the fact that everybody knew them. Their father and mother were mulattoes. Their father had some money that he had accumulated and he sent those girls up North to school. He never would say where and nobody cared especial-
ly. That was ten years ago and neither of those girls have come back yet. They are up here somewhere passing as white girls"——
As a matter of fact we are not capable of being as neatly horrified over this tale as R.E.L. but ever from his point of view we cannot quite get what he wants to prove. It was not an accident of nature that the two young women happened to be so nearly white. The South and its citizens cut a ridiculous difference about miscegenation when palpably it takes place so frequently in the very communities which profess to regard it with so much horror. It seems to us, then, a little academic and plifting to be so stern about whites and Negroes meeting in churches. Possibly they might meet there with less danger to the expressed opinions of the South than in other places not so sanctified.
As a clincher R. II hurles statistics against us. "Let me give you a few facts that you probably did not know before," he says, "Over 50 percent of Negroes are morons; that is, they have a mental age of about twelve or fifteen years."
Now as a matter of fact there are no statistics of that sort covering the Negro race in America. Army figures, whatever they may be, would do no more than show a tenency. We don't know what percentage of morons were found among colored troops in the war. We don't doubt that R. II does because it is our impression that the figures were never given out. 10 is also rumored that the percentage for the white army soared up to some amazingly high figures—between 50 and 60 per cent. Obviously so many of us are morons that we can't afford to be snobbish about it.
As far as the theatre goes, and that was the point at which the discussion began, we feel sure that more than 10 per cent of the spectators in any broadway playhouse are morons. No other theater or movie company it has become the multifaceted attraction to talk continuously while a play is in progress and to repeat the lines immediately after the actor has said them. The theory that a man adulthood sociality with every one who slid down in a theatre with him seems tousto be carrying democracy much too far. -Heyward Brown in New York World.
Through the kninness of one of the delegates to the National Young Women's Christian Association, which was held at Hot Spring, Ark., last month, we were favored with a copy of the Sentinel Record, a daily paper of that place. It contained a full report of one of the sessions, the perusing of which will no doubt be relished by our readers. Following is the article:
Perhaps not before under any conditions in this section of the south have there been such expressions on the equality of the races as were voiced last evening at the session of the Young Women's Christian Association convention here, when Mrs. Luke Fowler of Albany, director of Woman's Work, Commission of Inter-Racial Cooperation; and Bishop Robert D. Jones, colored, of the Methodist Episcopal Church of New Orleans, were the speakers at the evening session
After Mrs. Johnson had voiced an appeal for the equality of the races she spoke with much feeling of a letter that she had received recently from a Negro woman among a group to whom
9
she had pledged her greatest effort in their behalf. She said the Negro woman wrote her that the work she had been doing, had been taken with a grain of salt, as a sort of movement on the part of the white women to get in on the Negro so as to know what the Negro was doing, and how to make the next move in combat against the aggressiveness of the Negroes for recognition and Mrs. Johnson told her hearers that she recalled how Christ had been misjudged, and that if every Negro in the United States distrusted her, she would work right on in the great cause.
Mrs. Johnson opened her remarks by stating that in most of her addresses on the subject of inter-racial work she had found it appropriate to quote from Bishop Jones (who was on the platform) and from Miss A. Maude Royden, who she did not know it at the time, but who was in the audience. She said that the subject had been presented as the "Problem of the race" and that as much ground had been gained, as formerly it had been referred to always as the race problem. And that with it being a problem of the races, it was naturally taken to be a problem for the white race as well as the Negro race.
She spoke of the old order of things of the days of the civil war, and of reconstruction, and typed the old servants who had served with such devotion, and then said that the old order had passed and that 50 years had worked great changes.
"God knows that I face these problems with sorrow. These children of ours have been thrust out into darkness without the help of a friendly touch. A race has grown up in the south that, we do not know. Two years ago when I was called to this work of making a study of the race question, I told those who made the call that there was nothing to study about the Negro, that I had been born and raised in the south and that I show the Negro. Later I realized that I did not know the Negro. We have our eyes closed to a great power of which we know nothing. I saw at Fuskegee, writers and physicians and painters and poets, and women of exquisite culture and refinement.
"The best people of my race do not know the best people of the Negro race. We know the cook and the yard man, and we are told that truth, and morals are not with the Negro race. I see in this audience sprinkled about the dark faces of women who are giving and suffering and enduring because they are making examples for their race—and they are treated like women in the streets.
She told of ten Negro women and two white women, herself one of them, who had gathered at Tuskegee, and of the appalling fact that they could not talk together and that it required an hour of prayer before they could meet in frankness, but that a great light had come over her, and she had promised that she would help these striving people to receive their proper recognition.
"Bishop Jones has sold you of white men who thought they could settle this question," said the speaker, and then she stated that it had been wise said that the race question would never be settled until the women of the south took a hand in that settlement.
Bishop Jones Talks
Bishop Jones was the first speaker on the program of the evening, and his remarks came after a folk song by some Negro girls from one of the colleges. He recalled that the folk songs of his rate reminded him that there was never a word of embittered hatred or prejudice in any of them, but there was always a hope expressed.
He spoke of the present convention and congratulated that body on the Christian manner in which it had given recognition to the women of his race. "The Negro race is shot through with radicalism, and is being spurred into action; and it is losing faith in Christianity, and losing faith in politics. The solidarity of the races is being talked, but that will not answer. Twelve million rats solidified would be dangerous to any country, to say nothing of twelve million human beings, men and women, filled with hatred. I love, as my faith teaches me that Christ loved.
He paid a high compliment to Mrs. Luke Johnson, who was to follow him on the program for the frank manner in which she had taken up the work at the Inter-Racial Communion Conference, when he said she had spoken

up when the point of publicity on the work was being discussed and stated that she wanted the world to know the interest that she had in the welfare of the colored brother and sister. Continuing Bishop Jones said "The most difficult task of human experience is the adjustment of human relations. The proper balance in society is not easily found, even though by preponderance of influence and power, one group may assert a balance which in the nature of the case is only temporary. Both races are here by divine decree. Both races have points of strength and innate rights to life, liberty and the purport of happiness. Each race may be of mutual help to the other. The stronger er may grow stronger by helping all the weak; the weak may grow the loftier in an atmosphere of generosity, magnanimity, created by the strong in an efforts to help the weak.
"We can and should come closer together in the common interest of the whole society, at the same time with duo regard for the social dispositions of each other. He who seeks to widen the gulf between the races is an enemy to both, prolongs the struggle and increases the difficulty of the problem. We are all men, that is assured. That we all have rights that each must respect cannot be denied. That we are to be here under the same flag, common interests and common history, for centuries that come seems to be foreordained. There should be common sense, grace, patriotism and Christly spirit enough to make race friction less and race cooperation an everyday product, found in all parts and under all circumstances.
"Race friction is an injury to both. To promote it causes bloodshed, sears, consternance and dissipates energy, creates an unmoral atmosphere and stifles the lofty growth of all concerned. With one God the Father of us all and Jesus Christ as our elder brother, the Word of God as our platform, the stars and stripes for our mutual protection, there seems to be sufficient equipment at hand for a forward movement toward mutual cooperation and operation of white men or of colored men, but of all men. We must disarm we must serap our prejudices. Love is a key word. No man can make me hate him. A man who hates is hurt more than the man whom he hates. In our efforts to secure justice, we must not be unjust.
"In our efforts to secure justice we must not endorse prejudice by being prejudiced ourselves. People who know the bitterness and mistreatment and injustice and prejudice, must first of all know how to treat others right. Someone would say that this is the doctrine of subservience, but it is not. Anyone can be the bully. Anyone can shoot and fight, but it takes one with the pulse of Jesus Christ to love them when others are hating. The basis of man's Christianity is not what he believes, but what he loves. The struggle is not the conquering of doubt but the conquering of hate. Our interracial program will go forward as we preach and live the doctrine of love.
"In discussing the inter-racial relation more particularly from the angle of the Negro, among other things Bishop Jones said: "The Negro wants the recognition of his place in the
brotherhood of man which is his by divine right. "He wants one standard of American citizenship applied allise to all. The Negro approved heartily of the movement for interracial cooperation because it recognizes first of all the right of the Negro to state his own cause, and a case he has. No pro-

BURGLARS ENTER HOME
OF W. C. SANDERS
On Saturday night between the hours of 5:30 and 11 o'clock burglars entered the house of W. C. Sanders, 411 west Hall street, going in by way of front door which was locked and took several dresses. z
According to statements, Mrs. Leovia Sanders, the wife of Mr. Sanders, left home about 5:30 going to her husband's place of business at Huntingdon and West Broad streets. When she returned at 11 o'clock to let the grocery boy in she discovered that the door was unlocked and that the house had been entered. Upon examination it was discovered that five dresses had been stolen they being two sergee dresses, combination, a silk and a creature. Gigham dresses were found scattered about the floor in the bed room where the clothing were hanging. Wrist watches, brooches, jewelry and other valables which were lying on the dresser were left untouched.
Mrs. Anna Sanders mother of Sanders who lives next door and had only left the porch for a short while during the evening, was ignorant of the robbery until her daughter-in-law's arrival.
This is the fifth successful attempt at burglary of Sanders' house and place of business. The belief is expressed that the burglar or burglar entered with a pass key and that the perpetrators were women, because of the fact that only women's apparel was taken in spite of other valuables lying around. The case has been turned over to the detective department, and the victims believes that the goods will be shortly recovered.

EXPRESSES HIMSELF
Greenville, S. C. May 24 (Preston
News Service) After the trial of Miss
Lucile Thisley, a young colored woman,
who was convicted of manslaughter
to the killing of N. B. Hoad, a white
man, and was sentenced to two years
in the penitentiary, Judge. Manlind
said: "I am convinced, after carefully
considering the evidence, that there
would not have been a miscarriage of
justice if a verdict of acquittal had
been returned in this case. This per-
icious practice of white men debauch-
ing colored women is outrageous and
should be stopped. I cannot understand
the moral depravity of 'some
white men.'

467 WEST BROAD STREET 2nd Floor Savannah Savings Bank Bldg.
Atlanta, Ga, May 14th "Stand true to American Life. Stand true to the Church of Christ. Stand firm until the storm blows over—and hold your people." This was the essence of the address of Bishop R. D. Jones, of New Orleans, speaking to Negro pastors at the First Conference of Negro City Leaders of the Methodist Episcopal Church in session at Central Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church this city May 10 to 14, last. The meeting was composed for the most part of prominent Negro pastors of that denomination in the large southern and northern cities of this country. "There never was a day when the Negro race was so dissatisfied as it is today. I have always been a conservative on race matters, but I wonder if you know how rapidly the church is losing hold on the race. The Negro is not looking for philanthropy, but for justice. Let this present wave of dissatisfaction move on and we shall have what Sherman once said of war.
"Any man who says there is no danger does not know the situation. The task of you pastors is to hold the people up to the standards of the best that is in America. Whatever else happens do not lose your faith in God. Remember that the man who loves is far stronger than the man who hates. Strength is not always on the side of ships and armament and ammunition. No, I am not preaching the doctrine of subservience. I am preaching the doctrine of love and love and forgiveness make for strength. If I thought I had a drop of subservient blood in me I would open my views and let it out. I am simply preaching the Christian doctrine of love, and that is the doctrine your pastors must teach. Stand true to American life. Stand true to the church of Christ. Stand firm until the storm of dissatisfaction and its causative will has passed—and hold your people to a realization of their highest spiritual possibilities, while striving for their intellectual and economic ones."
The Conference of Negro City Leaders was presided over by Dr W. A. C. Hughes, secretary of the Department of Negro Work, Board of Home Missionions and Church Extension, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, Dr. Melvin L. Burns, head of the Department of City Work of the demonstration at Philadelphia, collaborated with Dr. Hughes. More than one hundred and fifty delegates were present, leading idymen and pistons of eighteen offices of this country. Three mass meetings were held that filled Central Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church to capacity with prominent speakers.
For the first time in the history of any denomination Negro leaders met to discuss problems affecting the many thousands of Negro people moving from south to north and from rural sections to large Southern industrial centers. Housing, religious shepherding adjustment to climatic conditions, recreation, health, sanitation, race protection and relation-slip, and many other aspects of the new conditions into which the Negro race is encountering in its present stage of transition, were discussed.
Health dangers involved in migration to southern industrial centers from rural communities was discussed by Dr. Franklin G. Nichols of New York City, Associate Director of the National Health Council. Dr. Nichols pointed out that the death toll among Negroes between the ages of ten and fourteen years of age is eleven times the rate among white children of the same age. lack of proper information regarding diet, sanitation, simple health rules, fear of the physician and hospital, charge of one moving from south to north, from country to city, all, he said, contributed toward this condition. He urged the pastors to open classes for the study of sanitation, sex psychology, and to have lecture courses on simple hygiene given by competent physicians.
Dr. Fletcher Penn, physician and surgeon of Atlanta, spoke along the same line and urged the importance of the church's entrance into this sphere of social welfare. An entire session was given to considering the special problems encountered by a Negro in entering northern states where they lit up poor sections without adequate housing, recreational or church facilities. Professor Pezari O'Connold of Morgan College, Baltimore, and Dr. C. R. Bryant of Chicago, also spoke at this time. Juvenile delinquency among young Negroes was discussed by Frank Orrin of Garrett Historical Institute, Chicago, who classified his data under physical and moral grievance.

feet, vocational unpreparedness, strong interests wilt no outlet, poor school environment, social isolation, family economic conditions, conflict with members, of family irresponsible parents, and declared the Negro race no better and no worse than any other in these respects. Negro ministers and churches must devote themselves to the task of re-establishing family control, in the opinion of Dr. Beck. To reduce the present rate of juvenile delinquency Negro leaders should increasingly call the attention of agencies to this neglected group and should instruct parents to trust the judgment of reputable social agencies. A city missionary society among Negro Methodist Episcopal Churches is to be formed in every city where there are three or more churches of the denomination, the purpose of which is to unite them for city-wide rather than congregational activities and widen the scope of their ministrations to the local constituency. A seventy-n-week program of community activity, making the church the center of social educational and recreational as well as religious life of the neighborhood, was determined upon. The success of the conference prompted Dr. Hughes and Dr. Burns to look forward to a similar conference next year.
MASONIC NEWS
While I yield to no brother in my respect for our Masonic institutions, I feel that often they are unnecessarily burdened because the brethren have neglected the Five Points of Fellowship. If every one of us carried these out in their entirety there would be little call upon our Masonic charities. We would assist the brother at the time that assistance was most urgently needed; that is to say during his active life. A little sympathy, a word in season, has often altered the whole tenor of a man's life, and ralled him from a disheartened discontent to a useful man and a citizen.
The basis of Freemasonry, if we are to carry our teachings into effect, must be brotherly love. We must be ready to take every opportunity to prove that we thoroughly understand the obligations we have entered into, and to carry out those obligations so far as lies in our power. Every one at us has some slight power for good, for assisting the uprising of a brother. We should ever that power; be ready with our advice, our sympathy, and, if necessary to his welfare we should use what influence we possess to assist him in his laudable undertakings. That is practical Freemasonry and it is really the only true Freemasonry. Selected.
OUR DUTY TO EACH OTHER
A Mason is bound to consult the happiness and promote the interest of his brother; to avoid everything offensive to his feelings; to abstain from reproach, censure and unjust suspicion, to warn him of the machinations of his enemies; to advise the welfare and reputation of his family; to protect the clastify of his home; to defend his life, property and what is dearer to a man of honor, his character, against unjust attacks to instill in his mind proper ideas of conduct in the department of life which he is called to fill; and it may be added to further his schemes of interest and promotion if compatible with the paramount duties a man owes to the community.
If such are the obligations a man owes to his brother they are especially the duties that one Precumson ought to perform to another. Our order enjoins them as rules from which nothing can justify a deviation and considers their Intraction a violation of honor, conscience and religion, a protection of all that is deceived a real and vulnerable among men. But Marsury does not confine the beginning of her precepts to her followers; it rises higher in the scale, of honor honesty and good faith to all men; it exposes the cause of universal benevolence and virtue; and declares as unworthy of its patronage any violation of the laws of rectitude.

FIRST GUN OF POLITICAL FIGHT FIRED LAST WEEK
New York N. F. May 29th (Associated Negro Press)—The first gun in the coming hot political fight to be waged in this section this fall was fired last week when William Jones started out to organize the voters of King's County into an independent organization, Jones, who is a former sergeant in the old Fifteenth Infantry and who saw service on the battlefields of France, has long been identified with the republican party in Brooklyn. The Universal Republican Club at 650 Herkimer street was formed by him and mainly through his efforts has continued to function all these years. The fact now that he has determined to come out as an independent shows the trend our people are taking in the cust. Unless something unforses happens, it will probably mean the defeat of several candidates who have heretofore always signed on the Negro vote to pull them through. It is said on reliable authority that the old time stand-putters under William McParlane are in for a fight to the finish.
JAPANESE AND WHITE RACE
Milwaukee, Wis., May 24th (Associated Negro Press)—Marcus Garvey, of the W. N. L. A. New York, speaking before a mass meeting here predicted that the next big war would be between the Japanese and the white race and urged that when the conflict comes the Negroes go prepared to rise all over the world and seize Africa.
He declared that a move had been on foot to take the African colonies of the European nations in 1914, but lack of organization prevented accomplishment.

SUPPRESSION OF PICTURE IN
FRENCH THEATRES DEMANDED Washington, D. C., May 24th (Associated Negor Press)—The suppression of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" in French moving picture theatres is being demanded by a considerable section of the press in Paris and elsewhere in France, according to call dispatches from the French capital.
The French are said to be objecting to further exhibition of the picture on the ground that the author, Blasco Ibanez, places too much stress on the
part played by the American troops in deciding a doubtful war. For that reason and because the German soldiers are portrayed as "strong and splendid, though barbaric." It is urged that the photoplay be suppressed by the authorities.
"The ramifications of discrimination are world-wide" remarked a resident of France here.
CELEBRATED BY PROFESSORS
Chicago, IL., May 24th (Associated
Negro Press)—How the lovestick pyramid
builder used to scratch the emotions
of his heart on a brick, which
he hurled through the window of an
Egyptian belle, was discussed by
solumn scientists here.
Love's origin was one of the toples
at the University of Chicago, where
professors celebrated the hundredth
anniversary of the decipherment of
Egyptian hieroglyphics
Dr. A. R. Nykl, of Northwestern
University, spoke on love as translated
from old titles. Wooing 4,000 years
ago was not much different from that
of these days of flappers and joy rides
"The Egyptian and Arabian definition of love was the same as that of the tronbador," Dr. Nykl said. "They believed it was the union of two souls united in the world above. They also believed that love entered the heart through the eye.
The manifestations of love through the ages are the same. The lovesick one desires to be alone. He falls into confusion when his loved one approaches. He seeks to drink from the cup her lips touched. The ancient lovers believed one could fall in love with a woman simply by hearing a description of her.
DEMPSEY READ4 TO MEET ANY OPPONENT
Canadian Offer of $100,000 for Bout With Wills Interests Him Greatly
New York City, May 22nd (Preston News Service)—And now Jack Dempsey from whose boins hears the heavy weight championship belt, has returned to the good old United States following a brief, hectic sojourn in England, France and other European countries. We are informed, if news dispatches are correct that Tex Rickard and other notables of "fistiana" were on hand when the big champion landed with their pockets literally poking out with contracts and fountain pens in hand. The ostensible purpose for all this activity was a desire to match the former shipwocker with our Harry Wills.
Dempsey says: "Now that I'm home
I hope that all the boys who were so
bravely challenging me while I was
absent will continue to exhibit signs
of that bravery. And I sincerely hope
like that some of the promoters
who were talking about putting me to
gather with Wills haven't changed
their minds. I want action—and
plenty of it.
"The first thing Jack Kearns and I
will do will be to find out just what
that offer of $400,000 from Montreal
amounts to. If Canadian sportsmen
are willing to put up that amount of
money I'd say offhand that they are
going to have an awful good chance
of staging a battle for the world's
heavyweight championship between
Wills and myself."
"It seems that whenever certain people want a lot of publicity they announce they are going to put up a big sum of money for me to fight Wills. But when the offer is run down it is usually discovered that there is some joker in it or the offer is not made with sincerity.
"Now bring on the tough babies, one by one, and I will attempt to prove that I am the best fighter in the world—or lose my championship in the trying."

OPENING OF 1922 SEASON
Last week was "Get-Away-Week."
Eight N. N. League clubs and some forty or fifty thousand wildeyed fans banded together and tilted the lid to the 1922 baseball season and started it on its uncertain way. Uncertain because nobody knows where it is going to hang up or what it may bring.
That's what makes it such a whale of a game. It's a long hike from May to October and the whole route of the footpath is ballasted with bursted hopes shattered ambitions, reversal of forms, wails jibes, peers cheers and performances of unheralded merit—and in the end it is good for all of us.
Starting right in the middle of the industrial depression of 1922 the season starts on its cheerful way with brighter prospects than has been the case for many a season.
The peculiar thing about baseball as a business is that when industry is at a standstill and men are idle the crowd at the ball game is larger than when industry is on the hum. Baseball prosperms most when others are idle.
W. VA. SWAMP'S MONTGOMERY 18-4
Institute, W. Va., May 21th (Preston News Service)—By collecting 22 hits off two pitchers and helped along by eight errors the West Virginia Collegiate nine overwhelmed the Montgomery team by a score of 18-4. In the first inning Drewery knocked a boner, scoring Harden ahead of him, and thereafter each local player scored at least once. Two hits along with an error and a couple of bad throws allowed the visitors four runs in the third but thereafter only one Montgomery man reached third base.
UNREST AND DISSATISFACTION New York City, May 21th (Preston News Service)—Rumors of an upheaval in the St. Christopher Club, of St. Philip's Parish, the leading athletic organization among colored people in the Last have been persistent and onlookers have good reason to believe there must be some truth in the charges of dissatisfaction brought outside by certain members with the formation of a new club which includes some of the athletes of the wellknown church organization.
The new club was recently formed and will be known as the St.Christen-
sen Club. Unfortunate, indeed, is the action of our boys in not being able to settle their differences and keep intact an organization which has made it possible for the race to maintain representation on track and field here. No athletic meet of any worth is staged in the East but what St. Christopher sends her trained athletes who have brought glory to the club and recognition to the race striving for representation in every line of endeavor.
Waycross, Ga.
It seems that President Joe Jennings has not given Waycross a fair deal. Now why not let Savannah come to Waycross also Augusta. Our team has been to both cities. We want to let you know that the Cats are rearing to go and crying because Savannah and Augusta won't come this way. Our team took two games from Albany last week and this week on Monday shut out the Jacksonville Giants.
Savannah.Takes 5 Out 6 From Augusta

Tuesday rain; Wednesday, Savannah 5, Augusta 1; Thursday, Savannah 7, Augusta 2; Friday, Savannah 8, Augusta 4; Saturday, Savannah 7, Augusta 1; Savannah 4, Augusta 3. The attendance at the games was exceptionally poor.
The local team returned home Monday and will play three games this week, today (Thursday), Friday and Saturday with Waycross at Fairview park which is now about complete, both grand stand and bleachers. On Monday Tuesday and Wednesday of next week the Charleston Tigers will be here. This team has never visited Sarannah and is a new comer in the league. It takes the place of the Charleston team which started off the season representing that city in the league.
The local team will again have the services of First baseman Henry Howell who was not with the team for the past two weeks. Manager Jennings promises the fans some excellent games during the coming two weeks.

But I have an abiding faith in response of both white man and the Negro of this state to a public opinion which stands for fairness, justice, decency and self-control.
THE EGYPTIAN SCHOOL OF HAIR AND BEAUTY CULTURE
As to the Negro, he is the most available pessant on the face of the earth. He is the white man's responsibility. He is easily managed by those who understand him. He is still an irresponsible child. It is not fair or safe to leave him to his own devices and alien instructors, and then expect from him reasoned, sober conduct. In justice or oppression will breed resentment, bitterness and crime. It is getting to be a question not of what the white man will do to the Negro, but of the effect of the Negro's presence is having on the white man.
Our training prepares you to pass state examination Strictly Modern and Scientific Treatments taught and practiced by Egyptian Agents SAVANNAH AGENTS:
The time has come for the Southern white man, on the farm and in the city, to re-establish the relation of responsibility for the Negro's training which formerly existed to guide and help him in his struggle, and above all to have the courage to speak out and fight against every instance of injustice, or cruelty, or opression of the weak by the strong.
As to the mob spirit, that must be curbed. The provocation at Davisboro will seem to many to justify mob rule, but the trouble is that every yielding to this spirit carries us a step further. Public vengeance will be followed by private vengeance; race hatred by religious hatred and then class hatred until the best haters will rule, and we will have another Russia with ignorant tyranny at the top-and a nation starring to death.
