The latest styles of Pattern Hats for Fall. LEENVY'S Millinery Dept. 1131 Washington The K. of P. Grand Lodge which was held the last week, closed one of the beat sessions in its history. A large crowd of delegates from all over the State attended the meetings and enjoyed the hospitality of the good people of Chester. The programs at the Opera House were witnessed by very appreciative audiences. The parade on Thursday was a very grand feature; throngs of people saw the beautiful drilling at the Fair Grounds, and will not forget the pleasing spectacle of that day. The people of Chester enjoyed entertaining the delegates and the delegates seemed pleased with the many courtesies accorded them. The Mayor of the City, had the following to say, in the Chester Reporter, (a white semi-weekly paper-, which marks are very highly appreciated by the colored people here, and will be read with interest by those in other places: Editor Rev rer: "I feel that I should as Mayor of Chester, take some official notice of last week's colored Pythian meeting in this city, and say something in commendation of the quiet and orderly behavior. Notwithstanding the fact that there were a great number of cars on the streets during the Grand Lodge meeting, the laws of the city were mostly rigidly observed, and not a single accident was reported. The colored K of P's both local and from the State at large, seemed to be an orderly, intelligent and well behaved class of people, and I feel sure from seeing them in session here; that they are doing their part to advance their race along useful and desirable lines I am.

The College Registrar reports that an unusual number of applicants have been registered thus far which means an increased enrollment at the College the coming year. Notable among the applicants are those seeking advanced training in the College Department, and special subjects. Among them are graduates and former students of the State College and other institutions in South Carolina and neighboring States. There is also a greater demand for training in Smith-Hughes Agriculture and Home Economics. A new feature of the Extension Work of the College was effective July 1st. by the appointment of Miss Mattle Mie Fitzgerald as State Agent of Home Demonstration Work upon the recommendation of President Wilkinson. Miss Fitzgerald will have her headquarters at the College but will travel over the State to supervise and inspect the work done by the County Agents. Her appointment marks an elevation in the work among our people and will be the means of creating a larger staff of Home Demonstration Workers, so that in course of time, each County will be cared for in this respect. The Extension Force of the College now numbers more than fifty young men and women who are teaching useful methods of better farming and living throughout the State. To meet the larger demands for advanced instruction in the College next year the Faculty has been largely increased during the Summer beyond the usual number. President Wilkinson recently made announcement of the following additions: F. N. Fitzpatrick, Columbia University, English and Latin; W. M. Pushanar, Ohio State University, Biology and Animal Industry; Louis A. Potter, Pennsylvania State College, Bacteriology and Chemistry; F. M.

The list is not yet completed as other additions are under consideration. The Faculty next session will exceed sixty members. The following members of the regular Faculty are taking special courses this summer: Prof. F. M. Staley at Cornell University; Prof T. J. Williamson at Iowa University and Mrs. M. B. Williamson at Columbia University. LIGHTNING DOES MUCH Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 10.—(Preston News Service)—A school house at 4 Roach Street was completely destroyed here last Saturday afternoon by fire caused by being struck by lightning during a terrific electrical storm. Firemen fought the blaze for several hours but were unable to save the building. The home of Jos. Blalock, 224 W. Hunter Street, was also greatly damaged by lightning. The undertaking establishment of the Cummins Brothers in Whitehall St., was slightly damaged by lightning.

WALKING AROUND ZION Notes By The Wayward (By Rev. Richard Carroll.) It is seldom that Dr. Farmer in Columbia on Sunday, but I was here last Sunday and went to Stuinley Park Church to hear Bishop Brown. I enjoyed his sermon very much. There was a great crowd out to hear him, and from which came some demonstration. Dr. Farmer has proved himself a progressive pastor since he has been here. Improvements have been made on the parsonage and the house of worship. There is no debt that cannot be paid on the church and parsage after one Sunday collection. One can see that Dr. Farmer is a great and consecrated worker. I have never heard him preach, but heard him read the scripture, and he impresses you. There are few men who can read the scripture with understanding. In the afternoon, I heard Dr. Farmer deliver a fine address to the Court of Calanthe on, "Organization." This was an interesting speech. In the pulpit, was Presiding Elder Walker of Augusta. He too, is a "clear cut" speaker. Lieut. Henry was master of ceremonies. One could not help but enjoy the singing. Sidney Park has some very active leaders in the person of Starks Brunson and others. I heard a good speech delivered by Dr. P. P. Watson in Seneca last week on his work in South Carolina. Dr. Watson stopped with Mr. Jonas Thomas while attending the Women's Convention in Bennettsville. He made a spiritual impression on Mr. Thomas and his family that will not soon be forgotten. I want to thank Dr. J. G. Stuart and Mr. A. P. Hardy for captions in their fine automobiles. N. C. FARMERS- HOLD MEETING Greensboro, N. C., Aug. 8.—(Prep. ton News Service)—Negro farmers from all parts of the State are gathering here to hear experts discuss the questions of co-operative marketing and other agricultural topics and tomorrow during the annual Farmer's Congress at the A. and T. College. Co-operative marketing, fall and winter legumes, the family cow, productivity of the soil, rural economics, and other agricultural subjects will be discussed by men who are authorities on these subjects. Dr. B. W. Kilgore, director of N. C. States' Relation Service, will make the principal address on co-operative marketing. Dr. Calvin S. Brown, principal of Winton Normal School, will deliver an address during the meeting. Fred Yodder, of the A. & T. College, will speak on rural improvement. Dr. A. C. Kenney of State Department of Agriculture, will discuss the value of dairying and Prof. Hudson on how to make the soil more productive. The visitors will be guests of A. & T. College during the convention and indications point to a very interesting meeting. POLICE CHIEF FAILS TO FUR- NISH GUARD FOR MAIL COLLECTOR. Macon, Ga., Aug. 10—(Freston News Service)—U. S. Postoffice Inspectors were busy here last Monday investigating why Chief of Police Marshall Thompson failed to furnish a policeman to accompany a Negro mail collector in the business district on Sunday night. The collector was halted by groups of men three times and threatened by them, it is claimed. The collector reported the matter to Postmaster Rudisill, who asked for police protection for the collector and failed to receive it. As a result the postmaster called off the collection until next morning. The chief of police claimed that when the request was made the entire force was busy. It is thought that charges against the official will be made by the postal authorities. It is said that a force of police guarded the home of C. H. Douglass, a wealthy Negro, on Saturday and Sunday nights, to prevent him from being harmed. Postal authorities take the position that if this was done, an officer should have been furnished to accompany the Negro mail collector. ...Subscribe to your home Paper ... SHOULD CAUSE US TO BOW MAN SHAME, DECLARE VIRGINIAN. Washington, D. C. Aug. 9.—(Prasad Nova Service, Discussed, the possibility for the passage of the Dyer and Latham Bill, Mr. Hearn, Baird Hill, and Virginia, thus the following day. As a former Virginia I have bowed my head in shame as the agricultives of the Southlands. Years earns I viewed the cloth of a mob murdering by the neck from an apple man. He was graved, his clothes man, and his skin lacerated and bruised by the signal over which he had been dragged. The sight sent cold chills through me. I saw him many nights after in my dreams. It was a scent I shall never forget, and yet all, except the members of the victim's race prattled and gigged, and nothing unusual had happened. Later in the day the body of the victim was cut down, and the corona- ns, jury rendered a verdict that the victim had come to the death at the hands of persons unknown—yet well known to the jury. When man by whom the law ejected for the betterment of the community, fail to uphold it, and come violators of the code, man which society in the state is to be governed, then the general govern- ment should step forward and vindicate the order of civilization and pass such a bill as the Dyer and Latham Bill, whether it is sanctioned by victifoggers to be construed as human rights are under the State right."

"MAKING A MESS OF IT" Baltimore, Md., Aug. 11.—President what had been accomplished by the Harding Administration the Baltimore Afro-American in'a printed editorial under the caption of "Making A Mess Of It," takes issue with the New York World. "The New York World remarks that President Harding and the Republican Congress have made a mess of everything. This is not altogether true. One thing, however, the Harding Administration is making a mess of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Sixty-four lynchings last year, is the record of the mob's toll. A President and a Congress pledged to pass anti-lynching legislation, hems and haws on the issue as if no such pledge existed. The house passed the bill and the Senate pigeonholed it from January 1922, to date. The passage of the Dyer Bill is up to the Republican party. It has made its pledge. So far as the Afro-American is concerned, No Republican Candidate for National Office need expect support until the party carries out its pledge to put Anti-Lynching legislation on the statute books.

After having served five successive years in first Vice President of our Baptist State Convention, you were, in a manner most signal and enthusiastic, inanimously chosen at Columbia, last year, the president. The outstanding reason that choice of you was made was the fact that where, and with whatever, the denomination has entrusted you, you have shown superior qualities of leadership and accomplished splendid results. Your brethren then believed that you were—and I yet believe e that you are—our God given Moses, by whom our State. Convention will, eventually, be lifted out of the ruts of conformity to customs, which we have long outgrown and place it upon the mountain peak of mighty accomplishments to hte glory of our God and of his Christ. Because of those beliefs and expectations, I am but giving voice to the views and hopes of the denomination ginning from the mountains to the sea, and say: We are exceedingly blessed, very ack of, and look to your work. For the devise some means of valuing the humble, hip, huirahl statu superburdened with arrogance, great strength, nerve racking, menacing being, more salary raising speed, more imply cash, bosh yet again, and much more, although fortunate by the Convention under the final laws, submiser of more than missions. Where Home missions the smarter home use of the Convention's socalled missionaries would be in the least danger of catching it. In fact our State Mission work is the crowning. Taste of the presents. In the light of the great compulsion, the only suburban thing our so-called missionaries can accomplish is in warming our cases. Government of sleep, comfort and dignity, to light immensely these conditions are brought about. 1. We have utterly outgrown the need of having done the kind of work our so-called missionaries pretend to be doing. In consequence, the denomination would be the gainer by far, were we to do away with the workers and the work. 2. The financial cost of operating this so-called mission work is justified by no moral, spiritual or financial results. 3. This monumental farce of so-called missionaries has so bruised and butchered the spirit of mission of the denomination that it now knows a death to which no resurrection can, for many years, be made to come. 1. In the days of slavery, the Negro's church membership had to be in that church to which his master belonged. A's a result, at and for many years after, freedom, we had, in the State, many thhousand Baptist laymen and several hundred Baptist preachers who were unable to "give a reason for the hope" within them. A missionary was needed to do inductinate them. Then again: Scarcely one out of a hundred of those Baptist preachers could even read. It was Truman G. Brownson, A. B., B. D, D. D. Mrs. Francis H.

The Negro Baptist paid not one cent. He made Columbia his headquarters and lived on the go, indoctrinating, establishing churches, or organizing Sunday Schools, and bringing into existence associations, Sunday School conventions, and finally our State Convention. In the meantime he exercised himself very energetically and most effectively—not to money grab for self, but to educate some preachers. Through Northern benevolence and what he could raise in our own churches and associations, he supported in school quite a number of young men who have since performed benevolent work for the denomination. Some of them were, I. P. Brockingham, D. M. Pearce, F. W. Prince, Scipio Streetfort, M. W. Gilbert, R. W. Bayport, R. E. Wallace, G. W. Railford, E. W. Gaussway, A. J. Stokes and numerous others whom my memory fails to recall. But the conditions that obtained among the Negro Baptists then made us today; nor does the lesson of that kind of mission work but all our missionaries since, and precisely now, tried to put over the mission plan, with needs wholly disinterested to those with which Brawley is to deal. As a result they find themselves with nothing to do but to grind money. Then to make some kind of show, they go to jail and report the Lord's Prayer, and nail up "Ten Commandments" on trees and fence, where they will be read by news only. And they come to the Convention, and, with bombast great show, they "bless God and take care." Gourance for what I know uncovers it he courage to continue the notifiable Negro Baptists under this three pretense. In doing mission 2. True, our nerve racking, money grabbing, mere salary raising, general missionary, did in his report, which he made with much bombast and in a basso profundo voice at Columbia, last year, tell how he of himself, by himself, without any assistance in making choice of the beneficiaries, gave the enormous sum of $45.00 among nine aged preachers. He also told how, in accordance with his own sweet but imperious will only he gave the unbelievably stupendous amount of $268.87 among thirteen ministerial aspirants to help them in school. True he did not tell that the greater part of that thirteen was in no need of the help so given. Has he not a right to be generous to his friends with other people's money? Be that as it may, this is true: According to the State Convention's minutes, our socalled missionaries cost us, in salaries and expenses, last year $3,236.36. By means of this small outlay on them made, we were able to benefit 21 person—some who did not need it—to the enormous amount of $313.87. In addition to that, we were thereby instrumental in having the Lord's Prayer repeated in some jails and some "Ten Commandments" so posted on trees and fences as to attract the attention of some gentleman cow and perhaps cause him to treat his family better. 3. The belief obtains among many that our socalled missionaries raise their own salaries and expenses and are no expense to the denomination. They do not raise their salaries and expenses. So in addition to being tolerated misances, they are an unwarranted expense. To illustrate: Our bombastic general missionary in his annual report at Columbia showed that he had gobbled up for himself, without any effort to raise it, money that had been raised by the churches and sent to the associations, conventions, unions, etc. for missions $760.06. Of the $1,500 salary he is allowed for misrepresenting missions, it will thus be seen that he raised only $730.94. The remainder he merely "gobbled up." The great Getheme Association of which that peerless Baptist and princely leader Dr J. C. White is the moderator refuse to turn over their mission money to him. If other associations would exercise the same, good sense and excel Continued on page four. DR. C. E.

Sunday 109 Spring St., Greenville, S. C. A NEGRO IN NEWS. Dr. Moton's Observation Is That Negro Criminals Have Easier Access to News Columns Than Any of Fifty Negro Bank Presidents. Five newspaper men of varying experiences sat down together to discuss the question of giving the American reading public through the regular news channels, certain facts showing the progress and forward strides of the Negro race. Two of these men were Negroes and the others were friends of the race. No group ever came together with more hope and none was more sincere and earnest in its desire to render service. Although these men have written continuously concerning the race problem, not one of them ever wrote an unkind or an embittered line; and not one had ever knowingly violated any of the ethical standards of newspaper writing. And yet, as these men unfolded their experiences, it was simply seen that each one had somehow run into the same "blind alley"—that the great reading mass of America is not interested in the Negro except as a criminal. 'One membr of the group related a conversation he had with the editor of a. Southern daily paper, in which the editor said that he frequently published news of Negro achievement in his paper, because of his personal interest in the welfare of the Negro race. "I invariably receive letters of protest from our readers," said the editor, "when something of this sort has appeared in our columns, so I have been led to believe that the Negro is not generally accepted as news, except in crime." "After all, continued this same editor, "newspapers must have subscribers to enable them to run, and we must either please the majority of our subscribers or close up shop. So far as I am personally concerned, I am willing to give our readers as much of the news about successful Negroes as they will stand, but in the last analysis, they must be the final judge." Another of this group said that in all of his experiences with reporters, editors and desk men, covering a period of fourteen years, the average number of representative Negroes known by them was three and that in most cases these were only vaguely known. He also found that few of these news gatherers knew the local Negroes of standing in their communities, except in rare instances. Still another stated that he had been reliably informed that one of the moving picture concerns which issues, at regular intervals, films of current news, has an unwritten law in its office that the Negro is not news except in crime or in buffoonery, such as watermelon eating contests. He further said that the records of his office showed that when the Negro had been featured in any other way than indicated above, frequently exhibitors had themselves deleted that part of the film because their audiences were not interested. At no time in the conference of these five men was there one word of denunciation uttered. They were, rather, depressed, and one recalled an utterance of Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, who said, in addressing a group of white newspaper men recently, that it was an unfortunate situation in America that a Negro criminal had easier access to the newspaper columns than the presidents of any of the fifty or more Negro banks. With enlarged opportunities for educational advancement in the South the Negro is rapidly becoming a reading and thinking citizen and he is quite willing to stand on his record as a useful American if the reading public will study both sides of the picture and accordingly measure its judgment.

JACKSON-WILLS BOUT AT-TRACTS WIDE SPREAD ATTENTION. New YorkCity, Aug 7.—(Preston News Service)—Perhaps the most im portant, heavyweight battle of the year is scheduled to take place here on August 29, when Harry Wills, the "Brown Panther of New Orleans," (and also of New York), and "Tutt" Jackson, the phenomenal 21-year-old Washington Court House, Ohio, sensation, meet at Ebbets Field. Never in the annals of ring history has a heavyweight fight between colored fighters assumed the proportions, of this match, now practically assured. The fight is to go 15 rounds, to a decision, but few persons, who know the quality of the two men, expect the fight to go the entire distance. Dave Drisscoll straightened things out with the New York Boxing Commission after Paddy Mullins, manager of Wills had expressed his satisfaction over the terms. Had Been Hanging Fire. The contest had been hanging fire for many weeks prior to Wills' signing and McGarney had practically given up hope when he wrote his article in the New York Sun which resulted in a signed document being sent to Chairman William Muldoon. The bout looms as the most important heavyweight match since the Dempsey-Carpentier affair at Boyle's Harry Wills the acid test?" and the question now being propounded is "can Tutt Jackson, with his wonderful knockout record, give Harrf Wills the acid test?" There is hardly a question of doubt, but what the Buckeye youth, with his natural ability, ranks as the most formidable opponent of Wills on the fistic horizon. Six feet, two inches in height, weighing close to 200 pounds of sinew and muscles, he is said to be one of the hardest hitters in the heavyweight ranks today, with a phenomenal reach, and a shifty—almost impregnable defense. At least that is what the men, who have fallen before his ox-like blows, declare. But "Tutt" is an ever present example of the theory oft related in pugilistic circles, that the best defense is a good offense. On the other hand it is generally conceded that Wills has never been forced to extend himself to the utmost ability, and this fight, coming while the Dempsey--Wills match is still on the griddle might aid in crystallizing public sentiment to such an extent that Dempsey will be literally forced into a ring with Wills. Wills' ability is well known, and ihs wonderful improbement lately would seem to give the lie to the rumor that he has seen his best days. For be it understood that the blows which felled Norfolk and Clarke were of the sledge-hammer variety—blows that traveled barely six inches, yet carried Wills' opponents to dream land. MEYER MILL, DUNBARTON AND ELLENTON DOTS. On the evening of 2nd. inst. after a 30 mile drive through the country, Rev. A. W. Hill found himself at Ned Branch Baptist Church amidst a host of eager waiting people. Rev. G. W. Cherry, the pastor introduced him to us and on it goes. The meeting was already warmed up from a christian experience. Seemingly all were full of spiritual zeal and earnestness. On Wednesday evening Rev. Hill preached as I thought men seldom do but on Thursday night he preached to a mixed audience both white and black. He took for his text Phillipians 4-8, subject, "Prepare for better things." After a brief preliminary and some funny remarks that would make one almost crack his side, Rev. Hill grew eloquent and at times during his discourse the audience seemed spell bound and many cried Amen. He made plain the friendly relation that should exist between the races and Webster couldn't have been more eloquent than he as he spoke of honesty, purity, justice and love. The crowd was large, orderly and attentive. Rev. Hill will not soon be forgotten in our vicinity and his wonderful, sermons and timely remark have made deep impressions on the masses. community a good citizen. Mr. Elick Harris colored and popular citizen of Dunbarton died and was buried on the same day as Mr. Meyer. Both had undergone operations in Augusta hospitals. Good will towards all. SECOND CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES. Our pastor, Dr. H. M. Moore writes from Chicago University that he is a real student again at that institution and that things go well with him. He asks to be remembered very kindly to all of his members. In the absence of the pastor, Dr. R. W. Baylor is substituting to the satisfaction of every member. While Dr. Baylor is known state wide as a deep thinker and an exceptional pulpiteer, many of the members did not know that he could "deliver the goods" so well. He is really feeding his hearers with rich spiritual food. If you doubt the writer come out to Second Calvary Sunday. Immediately after the morning services communion will be served. The pastors and members of other churches are very cordially invited to come over and partake of the Lord's Supper with us. The officers and members met just recently and made arrangements for some very becoming improvements on the church. Mr. I. J. Joseph, our Choirister, motored to Chicago last week.

No nation appears to want a place in the sun during hot weather. The trouble with salads and kindred side dishes is that they do not take the place of real food. Some people just will not pay their honest debts and when their creditors dun them they get all up in the air, about it. Watchmakers are not lawyers, but, as a local one remarked, they handle many a case. Most farm homes still lack both tubs. Farmers probably have heard of plumber's bills. It is the little job of printing just as much so as the big one, out of as well as in town, that help to keep our wheels humming. A woman in Indiana admitted that she frequently kissed her bull dog in preference to her husband, and got more enjoyment out of the practice. There are not many bull dogs in South Carolina that can claim such precedence and no husband, to our knowledge, would allow it. Two bachelor maids wrote to a paper saying that the modern young man is n. g. and that they are better off single. They should doll up attend a few parties and act like vamps when they might be induced to change their tune. Advertising is the greatest force in the world today, declares an expert. It is nothing if not that. It remains the shortest cut to the intelligence of the multitude, and though there may be other methods of selling some goods, there is no other method to sell as much goods. Advertising is the engine in the fliver of business. The special call meeting of the Greenville County legislature resulted into a relief fund for the huld stricken farmer's section. $6,000 will be distributed in cash, and $4,000 for road building purposes providing employment for some of the sufferers. That's pretty good for Greenville. It is a foregone conclusion that the $6,000 will be distributed among the white farmers and the $4,000 will go to Negro laborers and their white bosses. Nothing The Indicator can say or do that can or will retard the retrogressing progress of the Colored State Fair Association of South Carolina. Therefore it will simply continue to speak the truth irrespective of what any of its officials may say or do. The fact is, an insignificant fellow has just as much right speaking the truth about the failure of the Fair Association as any great statesman, leader or millionaire. Facts are facts matters not from whom they come. Young Girls It is clear that some modern parents do not keep tab on their half-grown daughters. Those are not at an age when the blandishments of youths are sometimes altogether too effective. In our day, when the use of automobile makes it easy to make up joy-riding parties, sometimes on slight acquaintance, it is particularly necessary for parents to guide their daughters and not permit them to be lured into questionable paths. Vacation. The era of vacations is at its height and will soon be over. Vacations are meant to be periods of relaxation, rest and recuperation, a change of scene, places to visit, and admire, produce a new trend of thoughts that invariably stay with the recipient at least through out a year. Vacations cost considerably more than they did several years ago, as those who have taken them this year can testify. Automobile tourists and campers figure they can circumvent the increased rates, especially several take such trips together. Chicago has been in quite an unbalanced condition for a week due to a strike on the street car line. More than two million people were forced, without a day's notice, to walk here and there. Thousands were compelled to be on their jobs and many live from five to twenty-five miles from their work. To help out in this crisis every thing on four wheels was by city authorities pressed into service. It was no difficult task to get the private cars, trucks and even many from the junk pile, when 25c could be collected for riding 3 or 23 blocks from each person. Even women got into the game and carried away more real cash than many of the men. But at an early hour tomorrow, (Monday) the cars will begin to the special delight of Chicagoans and her many thousand visitors, since they have come to terms. By special invitation of Dr. Richard H. Howard, M. D., I worshipped at Providence Baptist Church of which he is an active member and dined with him and his wife. He is a successful physician and a splendid representative of the old Palmetto State. He insisted upon us to preach for Providence people and to please the many urging Carolinians we accepted invitation to fill their pulpit all day next Sabbath. In company with Dr. Howard we called upon the Cooper Brothers, who are succeeding in the merchantile business, only to be disappointed in finding them out. We shall repeat the trip before our next letter. Prof. Zack Townsend and I will either visit important educational places Monday or take a trip on the lake to Milwaukee.
