XXXVII BAPTIST CONVENTION POSTPONED Strike Condition Interfere With National Gathering. The following telegram was received in the city last Saturday with reference to the National Baptist Convention. Nashville, Tenn. Aug. 26. Rev. T J Goodall. 717 West Broad St. National Convention postponed account strike conditions. R. B. Hudson, secretary The convention was scheduled to meet in Los Angeles-Cal, next week and elaborate preparations were under way for the entertainment of the large number of delegates that were expected to be in attendance. Special trains were to have been run from all parts of the country and not withstanding the distance, thousands of representatives were planning to take the trip to the Pacific Coast city. The strike condition had been watched by the officers of the convention and the shifting of every movement closely followed. So acute has become the situation in the minds of the officials that after careful consideration it was decided to postpone the holding of the convention indemnitely. The calling off of this big gathering will mean a great disappointment to many who anticipated making the trip, yet, it is generally conceded that the board of officers acted wisely in calling off the convention under the present strike conditions. It is probable that a call will be made for the holding of the convention at a later date, if the situation of the strike changes to a more favorable degree and then the meeting may be held in a more centrally located city. This local delegation had planned hearing Saturday over the Central of Georgia Railway. Twenty-First B. M. C. To Be Brilliant Affair TO CONVENE IN CLEVELAND, O.

The date of "sailing has therefore, been postponed pending the arrival here of fifty three of our members from the east and south, who have booked passage." The Angel, termed the flagship of the Liberian Transportation Steamship company and the Church of God line, is said to be the only vessel flying the Liberian flag. U. S. ARMY IS BEING KU KLUNED Baltimore, Md., Aug. 25th (President News Service)—Like a stealthy slimy sperm the infamous Ku Klux Klan is spreading its fangs into the Army of the United States. It is reported that several soldiers of the United States Army at Camp Meade were among the candidates initiated into the order of the "invisible empire" at a spectacular open air ceremony at Odenton, Md., last Tuesday night in which Klan from Deleware and Virginia participated. It is said that the soldiers had taken off their uniforms and wore citizens clothes. The exact number of soldiers joining the Ku Klux Klan could not be ascertained. It is claimed by soldiers at Camp Meade that Klan prop aganda has been going on there for some time. Many of the soldiers admitted, it is said, that they were interested in the Klan organization just for the fun of wearing a nightgown and becoming a ghost. Ouddals of the Army, stationed at Camp Meade, claim as far as they know there is no rule forbidding United States soldiers becoming members of the klan, nor has the Army taken any position with regards to the organization. SAVANNAH, GA., THURSDAY AUGUST 31, 1922 NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE HOLDS SESSION Largest Attendance of Representative Business Men in Years (By Wm. Anthony Aery) Notford, Va., Aug. 26th—Negrets in business and in all other important lines of economic and social work, including education, public health community improvement, newspaper and magazine development, law, real estate, and farming, are now willing and anxious to cooperate heartily with one another and with justice-keeping white people and are ready to seek and use the advice of available experts, regardless of race or creed or class, in the solution of their technical problems, according to Dr. Robert Russia Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, who was recently re-elected, by unanimous vote, president of the National Negro Business League at its twenty-third annual meeting, which marked the high-water success mark of this creation of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, who developed with mastery skill the largest Negro business enterprise in the world—the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, which now has a budget of $500,000 per annum and commands the respect, sympathy and goodwill of the best citizens of all lands. Address to the Country The League's address to the country, offered through a repur-entative resolutions committee, which was headed by W. T. Andrews of Baltimore, Md., referred to the favorable economic outlook for Negroes, who, though they have suffered some serious business losses, have learned valuable lessons through their own business filures and the failures of other races; noted the steady migration, of Negroes toward the North; congratulated the Negro insurance companies on their ample reserves; praised the Negro farmers for their progress in land ownership; endorsed the Muscle Shoals cheap ultrate proposition; called attention to the steady progress of Negro education in the Southern States, especially in furnishing high-school facilities⁶ and in making college education for Negroes a requirement in teaching; emphatically condemned mob violence and called for the enforcement of calting law, especially the Fourteenth, Fifteenth, and Eighteenth Amendments to the U. S. Constitution, and for the wiping out of the black and bloody stain of Kuangtie; and called upon the U. S. Senate to pass the Dyer Anti-Lighting BUL.

Fryd R. Moore, editor of "The New York Age," presented to Doctor Moton, on behalf of League members, a handsome, seven-passenger Cadillac touring car as an expression of the good-will and appreciation of Negro business men and women who gladly cooperate with Doctor Washington's modest and efficient successor. Throughout the session numerous references were made by Negro business leaders from all parts of the Union to the courageous leadership and unfalling service which Doctor Monton has rendered.

Interest in the affair has been at fever heat for the past week and all the local drivers have been tuning up their iron steeds for the event. During the past three days added interest in the heavy-car race has been caused by the receipt of two out of town entries, one coming from Birmingham, ALA, and the other form Columbia, S. C. The Alabama entrant in a letter accompanying his entrance blank stated that he will drive a Stuart race which he claims is the fastest thing in his state. This car which has been entered by William Walhall and will be driven by "Red" Walhall, who is reputed to be the nerviest and most daring colored racing driver in Alabama. The other entrant, an Daxes from Columbia, will be driven by "Bullet" Johnson who has been making the other boys in his neck of the woods look foolish by his great bursts of speed. The local boys, however, are all primed for the big race and declare that they have no fears of either of the visiting delvers carrying off the prize money. Champion "Shine" Irwin who will be at the wheel of a special Cole "Klair", says that he expects to kick in again with the winning money and is prepared to drive the race at his life. Joe Brun, former local champion, is going in to retrieve the honors he lost in the races of July fourth. It is not certain as to what car he will drive but from all indications it will be an Exx. Other prominent drivers who will be in the main event of the afternoon will be Jimmie Webb or Tiny Butte, Packard; John Miller, Pearless Lockhart, Grant "special"; "Coolie" Waters, Packard; Irwin Williams, Chalmers; Will Tyson, Buck; Natan "Butch" Jones, Packard; Joe Butter Dodge, and Sam Anderson, Studebaker "special" In the light car race there will be about seven cars to compete, Fords, Maxwells and Chevroletts and there will be fun galore in this event. Most of these cars will be driven by the younger speed aspirants of the city. The motorcycle events will bring together all of the local speed kings including Ed Givens, local champion, on a Reading-Standard; Joe Buter, the deposed champion, on a Harley Davidson; Herbert Likenkotter, Indian; John Heury, Harley; Joe Walker, Indian; Saxon Robinson, Harley; Joe Taylor, Indian, and Ike Williams, of Jacksonville, Fla., who will ride a Thor special. For the lovers of horses there will be two horse races in which all the local steeds of any note will participate There will be a harness race, best two out of three heats, and a running race. The committee of business and professional men who have been sponsoring these races for the past two years, has gone to considerable expense to make Monday's racing card the best ever seen here. The chairman of the committee, William McKelvey, will return to the city today from a tour to New York and in a letter stated that all through North and South Carolinian views of the Savannah races has been heard and he has been asked for particulars concerning the running of such events. Mr. McKelvey says that he has promised to assist the business men of one of these towns in staging a race the first week in October and will doubtless carry up several local cars to help fill in the program. As in previous occasions, a brass band has been engaged to while away the mopents between the races. It is expected there will be special automobile parties from Brunswick Macon, Jacksonville, Augusta and Waycross to witness the events. The price of admission to the races will be 50 cents and parking space will be free. The races will begin at 3 o'clock. War Clouds Over Garvey's Convention CHARGES AND COUNTER CHARGES MADE BY OFFICIALS New York, Aug 28—(Associated Negro Press)—Wur clouds hung heavy and ominous recently over the convention of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in session at Liberty Hall, No. 120 West 138th street. The atmosphere recked with reckination in as Marcus Garvey. President General, and J. W. H. Eason, "Leader of American Negroes" hurled charges and counter charges. Feeling run high as delegates and spectators fought and fussed while a motion to adjourn the afternoon meeting was passed. Only a few minutes before adjournment the convention had been temporarily halted when the gallery attempted to howl down Eason as he was filing charges against Garvey. Throughout the sessions the "Leader of American Negroes" had been on the defensive. Incompetency, forming, an alliance with a discreditable organization, and creating unfriendly feeling against the American Negro, were charges made by Eason. The gallery especially took exceptions to the allegation that Garvey had formed an alliance with an unfriendly organization. This charge was greeted with glases and yells of "put him out!" Garvey said he welcomed the trial and the convention voted to accept the charges made by Eason. The President General then asked that he be tried during an open session, as he was anxious for the public to hear the testimony. The delegates granted his request. He had expressed a desire to conduct his own gise, which friends thought unwise. Until Eason brought the charges the week had been taken up in consideration of the alleged misconduct of the "Leader of American Negroes." After Garvey produced typewritten statements reflecting on Eason, the majority of the delegates thought it would be wise to hear the case in secret session. The first witness called to the stand at hite forenon session to substantiate the claim, made by Garvey last Saturday that Eason had been paid thousands of dollars as "Leader of American Negroes" was Auditor General Garda. He testified that in the first year of Eason's incumbency payments had been made on the basis of $10,000 a year. Owing to the condition of the treasury, the officials had consented to cut their respective salaries temporarily, and under the present arrangement Eason had been paid all except $3,736.85. Later a flag of truce was raised when all factions participated in a farewell reception to members of the delegation going abroad to represent the association at the League of Nations, when colonies in South Africa will be asked for to establish a Negro government. The secretary of the delegation called last Thursday. The others sailed Saturday. HORSE RACING A FEATURE AT LEXINGTON I LEXINGTON, Ky., Aug. 20th (Preston News Service)—The feature of the Lexington Colored Fair's race meeting, the Colored Fair Derby, in its fourth annual renewal last Friday went to Black Watch II, owned by J. M. Hubbard. Black Watch II, with Hughes in the saddle, was adamantly ridden. Opening up a lead of several lengths on the back stretch, Hughes al ways kept his mount that distance in front of the field. Arravan, which finished second, was far back in to early stages of the race, but on the second turn went around the field and made a heroic effort to catch the son of Mac Donald—Black Venus. My Ballot saved the show. The winner paid $38.20 for a $2.00 pasteboard. France Loses A Brilliant General Paris, France, Aug 20—France has just lost through death at the age of 84 in this city one of her most brilliant generals a mutato native of Sehcalon son of a French colonial of English parentage of the name of Dodds, and a coal-black colored woman.

Expedition To Diamond Field In S. America to Stop in Savannah New York, August 29—The unfolding of what promises to be one of the most romantic chapters in the history of the Negro peoples of the New World was begun with the departure August 23 from the port of New York to the steampath "Ann M" bound for the diamond fields of British Guinea on the prowess expedition.

Va., Bresford Gale of Philadelphia and Anthony Crawford of New York, who is also operating manager with offices at 80 Wall street. The "Aun Map" is owned by the colored syndicate.

They have about per The "Ann May" is commanded by Captain Louel O'Nell, late of the British Merchant Marina Service, while Major Wm. H. York calls aboard, representing the owners.

CHRISTIAN SNATCH MASK OFF KLANSMAN WINS IN COURT Austin, Tex., Aug. 20th (Preston News Service)—The trial of Edgar Shelton, charged with disturbing religious worship in an attempt to unmask a Ku Klux Klanman, who, with four other klansmen, visited a South Austin Baptist revival meeting on the night of July 19 for the purpose of presenting a cash donation to the pastor, resulted in a verdict of not guilty by a jury in the Travis County court. The jury was out less than one half hour. Shelton is said to be a graduate of the University of Texas and was recently appointed an assistant instructor in the University of Illinois. Shelton was a member of the church choir. Witnesses testified that the five klansmen, masked and robed, entered the tent in which the revival was being held, just before the close of the service on Sunday night, July 10. When they approached the pulpit, Shelton, it was testified, attempted to pull the mask from the face of one of the klansmen. The klansman, it was testified, struck Shelton a blow, knocking him down. There was a general exodus of the congregation of 400 people. Before any serious injuries could be inflicted two deputy sheriffs appeared on the scene and took Shelton into custody. It was also brought out at the trial that the visit of the klansmen was not unexpected by the pastor, as several days prior to the visit request was made that they be permitte do visit the revival tent and tender a cash donation.

DEVEAUX MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATION FIRST IN SERVICE POSTPONING THE NATIONAL BAP TIST CONVENTION (INC) The calling off of the National Baptist Convention (Inc.) which was to meet next week in Los Angeles, Cal., on account of the unsettled industrial conditions throughout the country, was a very wise move on the part of the leaders of this large and influential body. Conditions throughout the entire country are truly very restless and uncertain and only those who are compelled to travel are venturing far away from their homes. The strike of railroad craftsmen has caused much inconvenience and it does not yet seem to appear when the dissatisfied workmen and the railroad officials will get together and cause a return of normality. The National Baptist Convention which was to meet in the far-western city, is probably the biggest thing of the kind which is held by our people and naturally attracts thousands of delegates whenever it convenes. To ask these people to leave their homes under such conditions as now prevail is asking them, to say the least, to take a big risk. Most of those who would attend this meeting live east of the Mississippi and a very large proportion of them come from the Atlantic scaboard and its adjacent territory. They would have to go many hundreds of miles, some more than fifteen hundred miles, to get to the convention. were it held at the scheduled time and place and there is no telling what inconveniences they might have to undergo were they to undertake this journey during such perilous times as these. We believe, therefore, that it was the better part of wisdom for those who head this powerful body to postpone this meeting to a later date when travel will be safer and far more pleasurable. DIVERSION FOR YOUTH Several years ago in this city there seemed to have been studied efforts to provide suitable and profitable entertainment for our youth. Then all of a sudden there seemed to have been a discontinuance of this sort of diversion and the pent-up energies of our boys and girls was allowed to satisfy itself in any way it could. Naturally, without proper direction and encouragement, the minds of our youth seemed to stray away from those pleasing diversions which were conducive to the proper development of their mentality and they wandered away from the more enabling avenues of pleasure. Enjoyment of some sort the youth had to have and they fell into that kind which was most easily found, this, of course, being by no means that of a profitable or healthful sort. They began to revel in these amusements to the detriment of any cultural tastes which were being developed. The rug-time, free and easy sort of entertainment which supplanted the cultural and aesthetic modes of amusement during the past few years has wrought immeasurable harm to these young people, so much so that it is difficult to day to find a sufficient number of our young people who take pleasure in participating in the numerous kinds of entertainments which are of lasting value. It is going to require much time and persuasion to bring the young folk back to placing a proper value on the more beautiful and profitable modes of amusement and as one young leader has said, we must begin now. It used to be a common thing to have, every now and then, light dramatic and pleasurable light comedies and the kind presented by our young folk, but of recent years this form of entertainment has been almost forgotten by them. Amusements of this sort are educative and are conducive to bringing out the higher and more noble traits which young folk possess. We are pleased, therefore, to note that there are efforts being made to revive this sort of amusement for the young people and the sooner we begin providing entertainment of this character the quicker will our boys and girls begin to drop away from their revelry in the lower forms of amuse- ment which now seem to be appealing to them. MEDICAL ASSOCIATION The South Atlantic Medical Society met in regular session at the residence of Dr. G. W. Smith, Wheaton street, Thursday night August 3rd. This being the first meeting since the regular annual election of officers held at the Elks Home in July, the newly elected president, Dr. F. S. Belcher, presided and all indications bid fair for a successful administration. Dr. W. A. Harris was elected S. A. M. Committeeman to the Social Service Federation. Doctors C. B. Tyson, E. M. Pinckney, O. C. Clayborne, H. M. Collier and E. J. Smith compose a committee to investigate headquarters for the establishment of a Physicians' Rest. Dr. Geo. M. Evans who had just returned from Philadelphia, Pa., made remarks of interest touching upon his trip and reported a case of infectious polyarthritis submitted for astropathir surgery. The excellent festival tendered the Society by Dr. and Mrs. G. W. Smith betrayed the exhaled efficiency of the host and hostess. Dr. E. M. Pinckney made remarks of appreciation in behalf of the Society to which the hostess in fitting words replied. The next meeting will be with Dr. C. H. Porter Thursday night, Sept. 9th, at which time Dr. E. J. Smith will read a paper upon the subject "An appeal for a more Rational Therapy. The officers of the Society are: F. S. Belcher, M. D., President; J. W. Jamerson, D. D. S., Vice President; Thos J. Davis, M. D., Secretary; J. H. Eberhardt, Phar. D., Treasurer. Negro Business League Session (Continued from page 1) Gov. J. E. West of Virginia, who declared that, "God intends the Negroes to be a great people" and read Governor Trinkel's official message of "kind gest regards and sincere good wishes"; J. R. Levy of Florence, S. C., who declared that "the time has come when white and colored people are not only willing to reason together, but they also actually talk over their problems face to face and come to a common understanding"; and Bolton Smith of Nashville, Tenn., who spoke vigorously in favor of the passage of the Dyer Pill, on the ground that "a lynching in any State harms friendly race relations in all States." Hon J. C. Napier, former register of the treasury and former president of the League, presided at the Armory mass meeting. He advocated the organization and conduct of short, essential courses in business for Negroes under the auspices of local Negro business leagues. He recommended the employment of an efficient, wellpaid agent who should devote all of his time to the work or organizing and promoting local Negro business leagues and of patting Negro business men and women in touch with the most helpful sources of aid in developing their business enterprises. He also advocated the establishment by the League of scholarships which would aid promising candidates for the profession of business by sending them to some institution for special business training. Government Interest in Negroes President Harding and Secretary Wallace showed their deep interest in the Negro farmers by sending to the League Dr. H. C. Taylor, chief of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, who spoke on "The Negro in Agriculture" "A new struggle is going on in the world," said Doctor Taylor. "This struggle is not against imperialism. It is the struggle to make democracy itself safe for the world. There is as much danger in democracy as there is in imperialism, unless democracy has the right leadership. The struggle must be waged with the use of education and cooperative associations. "In the case of agricultural marketing we must first get the facts. Much that has already been said about mar keting contains more heat than light. It has been agitation rather than education. The middle-man's problem, which has been at the center of the stage, is only important when it is considered with other factors. "We must first produce a good grade of produce that people want. Everywhere people must know better than they now know—what they have to sell. Education, rather than legislation, is needed. Goods must finally be marketed cooperatively. Agriculture can only succeed if the Nation is prosperous." Doctor Taylor met the officers and members of the National Negro Farmers' Association (R. W. Westbury, Sumter, S. C. president; J. O. Thomas Atlanta secretary; Isaiah T. Montgomery, Mound Bayon, Miss, treasurer, and Benjamin F. Hubert, Tuskegee Institute, Ala., chairman, executive committee) and found out what the Negro farmers wish the U. S. Government to do for them.

He recommended the revival of "tradeboosting campaigns," through the assistance of the National Negro Business League as a clearing-house of information and a source of inspiration. This is what the Negro farmers ask for: (1) more farm demonstration agents; (2) a more equitable distribution of federal funds; (3) larger appropriations for State Negro land-grant colleges; (4) more assistance to Negro farmers in securing larger funds through the Federal Farm Loan Acts; (5) more assistance in securing better treatment at the hands of cooperative marketing associations, and (6)) the study of Negro farm ownership and tenancy throughout the entire South. Members from ten States were present for the two sectional and technical meetings. Watt Terry Speaks The presence of a Negro millionaire in any audience causes a thrill of joyful surprise and expectancy. Editor Moore stated that Watt Terry, who came from Brockton, Mass., to New York City some five or six years ago, now owns in 140th Street fifteen apartment houses with 1576 rooms and in other parts of Harlem fifteen apartment houses and stores which furnish shelter for over 11,000 Negroes. "The values of Watt Terry's properties in Brockton and New York," he said, "are worth $2,300,000." Watt Terry made a very favorable impression on the great audience, which had assembled in the Attacks Theatre, on account of his modesty, his candor, and his common sense. "Almost everyone, he said, "can become a property owner, provided he is willing to pay the price in sacrifice Standing on the street corners, filling in poolrooms, spending time in questionable resorts have never helped any body purchase property. We need in the Negro race more honest leaders. Negroes have suffered too many losses through so-called leaders. The National Negro Business League has always condemned the floating of worthless stock among Negroes." Recently this Negro millionarie subscribed $500 to the Y. M. C. A.; $500 to the National Negro Business League and $5000 for the rebuilding of his old church in Brockton. Founder of Mound Bayou Isaiah T. Montgomery, founder of Mound Bayou in Mississippi, who at the age of seventy-six is the grand old man of the Negro business world, declared that "Mound Bayou is the result of building on an opportunity"—an opportunity which this former slave of the Davis family seized thirty-five years ago, when he secured 20,000 acres of valuable Mississippi land and took upon his shoulders the heavy burden of bringing helpless Negroes into a rich, virgin territory and of giving them there a man's chance to succeed as farmers, merchants, and professional men. Today Mound Bayou has a fine, brick, sixteen room, consolidated school for a thousand children, which with equipment cost over $100,000. White Experts on Organization Carl Hunt, manager of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World, spoke helpfully on "Organization and Association Work." He helped the League delegates realize how they could analyze some of their own difficult problems by applying commonsense methods. The Negro press, including the excellent service of the Associated Negro Press, the schools and colleges, Y. M. C. A., and other organizations, according to Director Hunt, furnish excellent machinery for projecting the best thoughts, gleaned from any important field, into Negro minds. "Negroes in business," he said. D "should encourage young people to get good business training and then should give the preference to those who have dug their way through business studies." He advocated a year-round program for the League and the establishment of a central office which should aim to help build up new local leagues and put new life into existing leagues. "Surviers should be made of successful plans and of problems which face (Continued on page 7) LOCALS Mr. and Mrs. Wm. B. Jackson are vannah, Ga., but now of Trenton, N.

EUREKA CLUB ELECTION EASILY CARRIED What was expected by the general public to be a closely contested and heated election of the Eureka Aid and Athletic Club on Monday night, proved to be a landslide for the administration forces when they piled up 105 votes for Jos. J. Brown over 22 for W. G. Wilson, the opposition candidate for the presidency. So smoothly did the machine run that the Wilson supporters at no time had a look in the they were accorded every privilege under the law, but they were entirely beaten by the Brown faction. It is said that H S Scott who has held the position of president for several years was the prime factor on the winning side and so well did he have his forces organized that he put through the entire administration ticket without a hitch. In the election of Joe Brown, the membership has placed at the head of the organization a man who has had wide experience in social clubs affirms and who is one of the founders of the Lifeka Club, his knowledge of the operation of civic societies should give the club a splendid and creditable administration. The meeting was largely attended, more than 200 members being present and much enthusiasm was manifested. M. W. Bryan acted as supervisor of the election. Following are the officers: J. J. Brown president; C. C. Davis, vice president; W. H. Brawner, financial secretary; Rocoe Bryant, recording secretary; E. C. Black-sieur, treasurer; Clarence Sanders, advocate; J. G. Philip, chairman of house; A. W. Timminsman, chairman of house. W. Cummings, chaplain; H. L. Steen, sergeant of arms. After the announcement of the ballot, W. G. Wilson offered a motion that the election be made unanimous which was carried by a thunderous reply of "aye" Imperial Club Holds Installation ```markdown ``` Henry Singleton, Jr., President The seventeenth anniversary and installation of the Imperial Aid and Social Club were held at its club room 620 L.

His remarks were very fittingly responded to by President elect Henry Singleton, Jr. Mr. Singleton has served the club as vice president under Mr. Wright's administration which runs over a period of ten years and who previous to be called into the army during the recent war, served very creditably as president of the organization. The large attendance at the installation and the commendable expressions made of Mr. Singleton attested the popularity of this young man who will undoubtedly steer this organization on to further success and give to the membership a splendid administration. The officers were installed by P. A. Moore, assisted by James M. Ferrebee and Steven J. Hamilton, after which referrals were served. Following is the board of officers. Henry Singleton, president; Richard Brown, vice president; Clifford A. Washington; financial secretary; William P. Mitchell, recording secretary; Juno Bryan, register secretary; Geo S. Barton, treasurer; Joseph Alexander, chairman of finance; Joseph Rivers, advocate; Stanley Freeman, chairman house; If Sterling, Investigating Jas. Gordon, marshal; Peter Jackson, sergeant at arms; Robert Smalls, chairman of Health; Albert Young, secretary of house; Jas. Simmons, chaplain. SAVANNAH HOME ASSOCIATION NOT IN ELKS CONTEST Although Savannah Home Association has agreed to attend the bazaar of Weldon Lodge of Elks in a body on next Wednesday night, it is no way competing in the contest of the most popular president of social clubs nor in the contest of the club having out the largest number of members. The sole purpose of the Association in attending the bazaar is to return a visit to the Elks and to assist in its financial success.

City of Montgomery Social Club will be bound for Lincoln Park. They promise a large evening. The Letter Carriers had quite a pleasant evening at their dance on Monday night at Lincoln Park. The evenings pleasure was marred somewhat by the lateness of the orchestra's arrival, some being impatient and left, but those who stayed were well repaid for fingering a little longer. The South Carolina Benevolent Association met last Sunday afternoon and held a very good meeting. The election will be held next month instead of Sunday as was stated in the club columns. But in the meantime the "roffers" and its machinery are being well oiled for the occasion so that a clean election will be held.

AUGUST 24, 1922 By a Nile Queen. © By A. M. P. The relation of food and sleep, or rest, to the welfare of the body, and subsequently their importance as aids to beauty, should be, so well-known that I should never find occasion to mention it here, but judging by some of the striking illustrations I see daily of people who act as if they had never heard of why we eat, and why we should sleep there is nothing left for me, but to speak of eating and sleeping. Why do we eat? To build up nerves, replenish the tissues, restore the richness of the blood, reinforce the fat padding, in short to keep the body fit, and consequently be beautiful. But the way some of us eat, you'd never know why they thought they should eat. To them, a meal is an orgy, a time when you give over to appetite, an dif the appetite sees fit to call for a dozen chocolate covered doughnuts-filled with powdered nuts and eaten with clotted cream, they buy them, simply because the appetite called for them. Oh, who unto your digestion and your complexion. Again, let me emphasize that simplicity is to be wooded in all things, even the feeds we eat. The girl who nibbles at a salad, or a sandwich of the thickness of the provocational dime, is the butt of many little attempts at wittlesms, and yet the worst to be said of her, is that she is economical or that she "is no longer than a sparrow" neither of which are particularly singing reflections. What we usually cannot say is that she has a complexion "like a frog's back," or that her skin would drive one to distraction. She doesn't indulge in mild night nibbles where rich salads, and heavy cakes, and strong coffee, not to mention those other dishes. popularly attributed to Dutch lunches, and served, even in the best regulated families long after the latest eating hour. She proves her social affinity by drinking two glasses of cold water, and eating a dish of pineapple, stewed apples, sliced oranges, or a slice of melon. She may even drink cocoa made with the richest cream, if she really wants to add weight, but she shakes her head sniffingly when you offer her other vials. She wants her beauty. When her skin assumes the slightest yellow tinge, she renews her diet of fruit and augments it with a wider variety. There are grapes and raw peaches, which are excellent for oily and yellow skin and are appetizing and digestible. Oranges, lemons, and limes are unrivalled as complexion clearers, and nids to digestion. Grape fruit stimulates the digestive organs and is better than all the laxatives and cathartics, ever sent out by the A.D. S. Strawberries in season are fine for enticing the blood, for they contain a strong percentage of iron. When we hear folks say that eating strawberries always gives them the rash, instead of cutting out the strawberries, advise them to have their blood looked after. They're in bad, without the berries. Green salads such as lettuce and celery, with a dash of fresh olive oil are the best things one could wish to give them that radiant glow of health and beauty. They're good for the nerves too, for a lot of this dark brown medicine with the bitter taste, prescribed by most orthodox physicians, is composed principally of celery extract for the nerves. The poor butt of all jokes, the onion, is excellent as a pacifier for frayed nerves, and should be a welcomed addition to all salads. But beware of rich bolled dressings. Let them remain in the jar where they look best. But once started to speaking of food, I might dwell at length, for I have always had a secret hankering to be a dietician, and never lose an opportunity to tell you what to eat and what not. I'm a hound for calories and vitamin, too, so I'd better change the subject before I bore you, thoroughly. There's sleep, the blessed alleviator of all ills; With what utter relaxation and gratitude Napoleon said, "What a delightful thing rest is. The best has become a place of luxury to me. I would not exchange it for all the thrones in the world." Beauty maps! Mother used to catch us when we were so high, and placing us in the center of the down old-fashioned bed, bid us take our beauty nap. Had I realize it it's benefits, I should have become a second sleeping Princess, to have awaken only when the Prince of Beauty had fully cared me. But then, I kicked and went a little rebelliously held my body taut, and thought all sorts of naughty things about my mother and finally, I went to sleep through sheer rebellious exhaustion and spent a frightful hour or two in lurid dreams. I didn't know that there were right and wrong sides to my beauty map just as there were to my little frilled uprons which I must always slide off, when I lay down. I didn't know that holding my body taut, instead of relaxing easily and obediently was what indirectly made my slumber so painful, and why I would wake with emarting eyes and a weak gait. Neither did my sister know that curling up in a bait, with the cover tight over her head, was going to make her shoulders round, or that she was helping to wrinkle her skin when she crawled up on two willows, and lay flatly on her back to be from mussing up her hair, of which she was just proud. But when we got older and enjoyed the supervision of a rational "Gym" director, we learned that pillows are a menace to beauty, that heavy bedding as bad for the body, that the air must have excellent circulation through the room where one is sleeping and closed windows, mean bad sleeping. We learned if you take worries to bed, you will not rest, and that no physician in the world will administer a sleeping potion simply to make you forget your little tempest in a teapot. Rather he'll tell you to quit worrying and you will sleep. And we learned to return to the habits of our baby days, and noce we were in bet to turn over on our abdomen, straighten our arms out by our sides, and go serenely to sleep, knowing that we were alding our beauty materially by forcing back our shoulders and our chest in this comfortable position. And then we slept. Why it is all so easy when one know how, that I can't see why we prefer to go rest broken, over fed, and obviously our beauty by artificial application of pads, and draps and cosmetics, when we could so easily all be in the class of the A BOX A bouncing baby boy was born to Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Brown of Sixth street on July 30, and for a month old boy he is doing fine. Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Green Entertained Mr. and Mrs. A.

O., Aug. 26th (Preston News Service)—Clarence Wheeler was held over for General Sessions Court here last Thursday by Magistrate Jennings on a charge of assault with intent to ravish, his victim being a prominent society matron here. The hearing before the magistrate was secret, only those directly interested in the case were permitted to attend the hearing. However, it is stated, that Wheeler went to the lady's house several weeks ago in the absence of her husband and made improper remarks to her, when she repulsed him. Wheeler is said to have caught hold of her. In the struggle which ensued the woman managed to get hold of her husband's razor which was lying on a table in the room and inflicted several deep gashes upon Wheeler's face and body and he fled. When her husband returned later in the day he found his wife lying in the floor almost unconscious suffering from a nervous shock caused by the struggle with Wheeler. He immediately notified the police who had been searching for Wheeler for the past five weeks and only found him last Wednesday. LEAGUE SESSION NEGRO BUSINESS (Continued from page 4) Negroes in business. A central office should lay out the standards for local leagues." Negro Leaders Pull Together All who spoke had a real message. Nobody attempted to talk over the heads of their neighbors or indulged in anything that might be labeled patronizing. A spirit of unity and peace prevailed throughout the meeting. There was not the slightest bit of quibbling. The meetings were well attended. There was throughout the meeting a fine spirit of give-and-take. In good fellowship the business of the meeting was transacted. The sessions were long, but were all interesting. Every body was on the alert to get information. The speakers were asked searching questions, but there was no beckling. Teamwork, good temper, fellowship, construction, vision, faith, hope, love—these are the terms in which this meeting should be described and evaluated.

JERNIGAN UNDER KNIFE Shreveport, La., Aug. 26th (Pre-to- n News Service)—In less than five min- utes after he had been released from Jail last Monday night, Jesse Jernigan, aged 50 years, was kidnapped and spirited away in an automobile by a party of masked klansmen to an isolat- ed spot in the woods a few miles from here and forced to submit to an opera- tion. It is reported that Jernigan had been arrested on Saturday alleged to have made an improper remark to a white- woman, the technical charge being disorderly conduct. After a hearing Jernigan was released. According to Jernigan's statement to the police at the hospital on Tuesday afternoon, after being released from jail he said he had gone only a short distance down the street from the jail when he was seized by a party of eight or ten men, all masked, and placed into an automobile then carried several miles into the wooded country where he was forced to submit to the operation. After the operation they then tossed him into an automobile and returned him to the city and dumped him almost lifeless from exhaustion and loss of blood into the street at the front entrance of the Charity Hospital, where he is now a patient, shortly before midnight. Pensacola, Fla., Aug. 25th (Proton News Service)—There has been an old say that the sanctity and purity of any race is in the hands of woman. The morals and those things are set and standardized by the women. As an indication that Negro women have taken the endgirl in their own hands is being evidenced nearly every day in different parts of the country. There is a general opinion among a large number of women that some men just can't be in their presence a single minute without getting fresh. Alexander Lloyd, aged 47 years, has always considered himself a favorite with the ladies. Last Monday evening he told some other man that he was going over where that bunch of sweet looking strange ladies were and make a hit with them. Lloyd hadn't been with them more that five minutes until his friends could see what a hit he was making. The women evidently enraged at something he had said poured upon him and administered such a sound thrashing that Lloyd had to be attended by physicians at the county jail after he had been lodged on serious charges.

Complete Line of Hosiery New York, N. Y. August 30th—A rain of deadly blows to the body thru the first and second rounds and partly thru the third speiled the finish of Tut Jackson at Ebbets Field last night. Hurry Wills, Negro heavyweight champion of the world, knocked Tut cold after two minutes and five seconds of fighting in the third. The blows that brought this much discussed encounter to a sudden and somewhat dramatic close were two short hooks to the chin, one delivered with the right and the other with the left. The closing punches were only incidental to the end, however. Body punishment, for which Jackson made himself a mark, brought the Ohio heavyweight to a weakened condition that needed only the jaw drives to bring about the finish. Jackson was not exactly a set-up for Wills last night, but it was evident from the tap of the first gong that he was completely outclassed. From the first he adopted fatal tactics in dealing with Wills. He tried infighting and it was at this game that Wills excelled. Tut tried to save himself by clutching, but he could never pinch Harry's long arms to his sides. While Jackson struggled valiantly to mother Will's arms the latter kept pumping away with both hands and every blow brought a flash of pain across Tut's features. Jackson landed no damaging blows and Wills wore a confident smile from the tap of the first gong until Jackson's tall figure lay curled on its side at his feet. Even at the long range stuff Jackson suffered. At a distance Wills worked a shooting left jab that rarely missed its mark. This usually stung the Ohio heavyweight into trying to clinch, and he found himself going out of the frying pan into the fire. The clinches brought on the deadly body punishment again, and it was only a question of how long Tut could stand the gaff. In the first round, immediately after the bell, Jackson rushed into a clench after stopping one of those piercing left jabs. The thudding drifts to the body that immediately followed this maneuver made Jackson double up in agony. Toward the end of this sev Jackson was the first to enter the ring, followed by a mob of handlers, equerries, rubbers, metal polishers and piano movers, who helped Tut to get his feet through the ropes. Tut was hardly given a tumble by the crowd, but Wills, clad in a bathrobe that looked as though it had been bequeathed to him by John L. Sullivan, got a great thand. The large number of colored customers were particularly enthusiastic. The weights were: Wills $212\frac{1}{2}$; Jackson, 1881\frac{1}{2}. As they posed for photographs Jackson turned a murderous scowl on Wills that didn't seem to bother the colored champion at all. They had a long comfab in the center of the ring, while Claud Tibbets, of Albany, the referee, handed out some explicit instructions. SAM ACKLAT.
