INTER-RACIAL CO-OPERATION ENCOURAGING Over Six Hundred Counties Are Organized To Promote Friendly Relations—Negroes Need Medical Schools And Universities—Aid From The Press—Atlanta Makes Progress. An Exponent of Truth and Justice INTER-RA CO-OPER ENCOU Over Six Hundred Counties Friendly Relations—Neg And -Universities—Aid Makes Progress. By Wm. Anthony Aery HAMPTON, Va., March 9.—Inter- racial co-operation is growing steadily throughout the Nation. In the South the inter-racial co-operation mov- ment is receiving the hearty support of the Church and the press, as well as the educational, business, and com- unity leaders. The Commission on Inter-racial Cooperation is the outgrowth of a conference which was held in Atlanta early in 1910 to consider some of the grave problems of race relations that had been brought to the surface on account of the World War. It is now doing organized work in all the Southern states. The Commission is composed of white and colored men, including Dr. R. R. Moton, Dr. John Hope, Bibsop R. E. Jones, Bishop G. W. Clinton, Dr. Isaac Fisher, and Dr. John M. Gandy. The officers include John J. Eagan chairman; R. H. King, director; and W. William Z. associate director. The headquarters of the Commission are in the Candler Building, Atlanta, Ga. The publications of the Commission include "Law and Order in Tennessee" by Edwin Mims; "An Appeal to the Christian People of the South," adopted by the recent Church Leaders' Conference at Blue Ridge, N. C.; "The Nashville Plan of Inter-racial Work"; and "A Handbook for Inter-racial Co-mittees," compiled by Edwin Mims. These publications do not attempt to lay down any hard and fast plan of action for any state or community or to generalize and dogmatize. These publications, written in a Christian spirit, express the better public opinion of the South. The report concrete achievements of Southern communities and commonwealths. Prof. Edgain Mins of Vanderbilt University is one of a number of Southern white leaders who has ably presented "the facts of religious economics and social progress which have been the results of cooperative effort of real constructive statesmanship. The Commission on Inter-racial Cooperation has wisely and quietly kept at work, organizing in some six hundred counties inter-racial committees that carry the burden of adjusting race relation before the breaking-point is reached and of helping to develop movements which will bring white and colored people nib friendly relation. These inter-racial committees are functioning in specific matters, such as justice before the law, adequate educational facilities, justice in public converences, economic justice and the handling of any acute situation which arises between the races." Better health and better education The inter-racial Committee of the War Work Council of the Y. M. C. A. has just issued a study of the various agencies that are working in the field of social welfare for the increased inter-racial co-operation. The study after referring to the splendid work of some of the educational foundations, expresses the hope that aid will be given for the establishment of "at least three medical and nurse training schools for Negroes which would compare favorably with any such institution in America for whites" and for the establishment of a series of five or six universities running from Austin, Tex. to New Orleans, Atlanta, Nashville, Richmond, with perhaps one in Ark. one in Missouri, and one in the Carolinas." In the social and economic field, thirty-six agencies—one predominately white and twenty-six predominately Negro—are working on inter-racial cooperation programs. Twenty three national or semi-national organizations are co-operating with Negroes of the South in the development of religious life. "Here as in no other field, there is lack of unified statemanship." Chambers of commerce, civic clubs, and local city organizations have been taking a lively interest in promoting inter-racial cooperation. Publicity has already been given to work in Nashville, Memphis, Atlanta, New Orleans, Louisville, Charlotte, Fort Worth, Chicago and Chicago. The need of bringing hospital facilities within the reach of the 12,000-000 American Negroes should be apparent to legislators and others who are responsible for our national health efficiency. Has been a notable improvement in the handling of news relating to the Negro. The activities of the race are given more and more prominence. One of the paper carries at both two columns every Sunday morning, summarizing the various activities among colored people. His reporters and editors have been made aware of the completely sometimes registered as to their magnifying the crimes of Negroes and minimizing their better achievements." The Atlanta Plan The Y. M. C. A. A. study is in offering to the Atlanta Plan says: "The general committee has weekly meetings separately and joint meetings once a month. Any matters requiring immediate action are handled by joint meeting of the appropriate committees. By means of these committees reports of race phenomena have been published and quoted. A higher high school has been opened for Negroes. A kind of land has been bought and occupied to the city to be The. St. Louis Argus developed into a park for Negroes. The chief of police is co-operating heartily in bettering conditions in certain sections. The officials of the Terminal Station are making every effort to provide more comfortable traveling facilities for Negroes. The Board of Education has materially increased the salaries of all colored teachers." A Developing Program The Commission has attempted to study what Negroes want; to agree on a program behind which it could rally white Christians; and to make its program effective. It has attempted to lead men and women to the light and to capitalize the interest, a growing number of thoughtful white men and women, many of whom are college trained, in securing justice for all Negroes. The Commission has recognized the fact that Negroes wish to develop along lines enjoyed by their white brothers. Its program has been a developing one. The program of the Commission on inter-racial Co-operation, at its present stage, includes the following items: The prevention of lynching and the Renial of legal justice to the Negro; the securing of adequate educational facilities; the development of sanitary housing and living conditions; the securing of recreational facilities; the establishment of economic justice and equality of traveling facilities; and the creation of a sound public opinion on race relations. Inter-racial co-operation will continue to grow steadily and yield rich return in racial good-will and in economic production just in proportion as white and colored leaders are willing and able to face the facts of life—some of which are most distressing—with workable plans for group action on and in a spirit of Christian tolerance. No one group can solve the intricate problems of race relations...but every group has a vital contribution to make to the ultimate solution of the problem. Great progress has been made and a new day is breaking for all American citizens. AT THE Y. W. C. A.

C., March 2—A petition signed by Dr. J. L. Peacek, president of Shaw University, the dean J. W. Ligon, J. W. Ligon, K. Hunter, George K. Evans and other prominent Colored leaders failed to prevent the holding of a Ka Klux Klan meeting in the City Auditorium last Friday night. In declining to be in order restraining the Klan, Mayer Ehlbridge gave it as his opinion that its troubling would come from the meeting and that any order or prohibition would be in the nature of an interfering, with free speech. The meeting was held and no trouble was Pulished In The Interest Of Colored People While Men and Women Are Busy Trying To Help The Race, Kentucky Man Is Blind To Everything But A Job. His Appeal Falls On Deaf Ears. One of the interesting characters to be seen around the Capitol at Washington, is Phil H. Brown, erstwhile of Hopkinsville, Ky., but now of Chicago. While everybody else seems to be busy, aiding the best they can in helping to put over a legislative program for the Race, Phil Brown seems to blind to every thing but a job. "Col" Brown as Phil is sometimes referred to went to the Nation's capital confident of landing a job at once, and was relying upon his "for success; but his wits seem to fail him in his desperate efforts to land an easy perch. Even his smooth game of talk was of no avail. It was really amusing to see him, going around the Whiteclaw Hotel and other places showing a clipping from The Chicago Tribune that said he was a special writer for that paper. But upon examination it was found that the clipping was a part of statistics compiled by Mr. Arthur, secretary of the Wabush Y. M. C. A. Chicago, on the non-employment among the Colored people of the Windy City. The boys say its "stolen thunder" Phil is using to hoodwink the public. Another thing noticeable, was that Phil Brown is quite conspicuous by his absence around the Racial Legislative Relief on Pennsylvania avenue. It is said, that "Link" Johnson and his followers were glad to dispense with Phil's services because the latter "mussed-up" things at Chicago jail fall, when he had charge of the publicity among Negroes for the National Republican Committee. It was learned that some of the newspaper men were strong in their objection to Phil having anything to do with any public movement, for the reason that there is much suspicion that things were not handled properly in Phil's department. With conflicting tales and rumors as to mismanagement of the affairs entrusted to him by the National Committee, Phil is having a hard time trying to land a job at Washington, for according to reports he has been told by the "powers that be," that he was well paid for his "mismanagement at Chicago last fall, and that the partyoweed him nothing. SEGREGATION SIGNS ARE TAKEN DOWN AT CAPITAL WASHINGTON, D. C. March 9-Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson states that in accordance with the campaign pledges that all segregation signs in the various departments would be taken down before "sundown on March 4th." He asked for special representatives to bestir themselves and locate some of the said signs. After a long and faithful look, it was discovered that the Democrats evidently "smelled a rat." for the "specials" returned without finding a sign anywhere. There are no segregation signs in Washington under the new administration. A service of more than ordinary interest has been planned for the Men's Meeting at the Fine Street Department Y. M. C. A. Sunday, March 15th. Rev. Benjamin Young, pastor of the Union Church will be the speaker. Mr. Wm. Lewis, the gospel singer of Chicago, will render several selections. Mr. Lewis is often referred to as the greatest gospel singer in America. He as been in St. Louis for the past two months or more assisting in a series of revival meetings that are being held here and has done the singing at Lane Tetrabenic, Union Memorial and other churches. Every man who attends Sunday will feel richly repaid for the time given to this meeting which begins promptly at 4 o'clock. Our seating space is limited. Come early. A blast to the wise is sufficient. MR. AND MRS. A. L. THOMAS CELEBRATE THIRTY-FIFTH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. March 3. —The 36th wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Thomas was an unusual affair when over one-hundred of Jefferson City's best people and visiting friends assembled at their home 419 Adams street. Thursday, February 24, to participate in the celebration and to offer congratulations. Mr. Thomas is Grand High Priest of the Grand Chapter Royal Arch Masons of Missouri and Junctional. The follows of the craft were quite liberal in their patronage of this affair. Among the most beautiful and serviceable present received was an imported Cling tea set by the members of the craft in St. Louis and a after curving set from Tabitha Court Heroines of Jericho, also 50 other gifts. A unimpressed repast was served and all departed after enjoicing the occasion. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas are as happy ST.LOUIS.MO.,FRIDAY.MARCH 11,1921 JOB HUNTERS AND RUMORS Old Timers, With Prickel Ears Are Watching Every Opening For A Chance To Get In. Register United States Treasury And Minister To Liberia Are The Coveted Places. The Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON. March 9.—Rumors and then more rumors are keeping the atmosphere charged with suppressed excitement and intolerant fears of just what no one appears to know. One is simply submerged and actually drowned in the great suction of things without knowing clearly the way or the wherefore. And there is no end to it. President Harding is the central figure in the situation but not the central thought. "Where and when will I land?" is the present all-absorbing idea and no one is making any apparent effort to get away from this question. There are just a few attitudes which appear in the nature of a surprise. William H. Lewis, Robert R. Church and Henry Lincoln Johnson are declining appointments. To what? is a query that baffles reply. They have declined is the rumor that is holding the center of the stage and that is all there is about the matter. On the other hand it has been very definitely decided that Charles A. Cottrell is the next Register of the Treasury; Carles W. Anderson is to be Collector of Customs of the Port of New York; Emmett J. Scott is to represent the government as Minister to Bolivia; Perry W. Howard has his weather eye on the Attorney General's office; Ernest Lyon is yearning to get his former post at Monrovia; Phil Brown has picked out a soft berth in the War Department; Fred R. Moore, the heavy man of The New York Age, slates himself for the electrically charged atmosphere of Port Au Prince; James Weldon Johnson or W. S. Scarborough is heading for Hawaii; Robert J. Nelson, the gracious journalist and editor of Wilmington, Delaware, will record deeds for the District of Columbia; Dr. J. K. A. Crossland will be given the very important position of Superintendent of the Freedman's Hospital; and Walter L. Cohen will be the Naval officer at the Port of New Orleans. Under the guidance of Mrs. Letitia C. Fleming of Cleveland, Ohio and director of women's activities in the last campaign, a goodly number of the women of national repose held a meeting of women voters, in the John Wesley A. M. E. Church, Hallie Q. Brown, Mary Church-Tergel, Victoria Clay-Haley, Alice Ruth-Dunbar Nelson, Mary Talbert were among the women leaders present at the sessions and took a prominent part in the discussions. They were addressed by H. L. Johnson, Charles Cottrell, B. Bishop Clinton and others? An executive committee was formed and plans for the maintenance of a national headquarters at Washington with Henry Lincoln Johnson as the executive head, were adopted. The chief duty of the women's organization is to keep vigilant watch over legislation affecting the status and interests of the race as it may appear in either house of the National Congress. Prof. Inman Page To Speak For Lincoln Inst. Alumni Sunday At Union Memorial The regular monthly meeting of The Lincoln Institute Alumni and Former Students Association will be held Sunday, March 13th at Union Memorial Church at 5 p.m. Prof. Inman E.

BRIGHT FUTURE FOR NEGRO IN INDUSTRY SAYS URBAN LEAGUE "Present indications point to a bright future for the Negro in industry," said Eugene Klinckle Jones, Executive Secretary of the National Urban League with headquarters in New York City, at the men's Meeting last Sunday at the Y. M. C. A. Mr. Jones continued. "With the lions now being made in the unions which have haretofrobe been unfriendly to the Negro and his usefulness thoroughly tested during the past five years. I believe we can safely predict that the future will bring the Negro into his own." Mr. Jones has been visiting Leaguers in thirty old cities and was gathering first hand information on the Negro in industry for the Rockefeller Foundation. MOORE'S BILL FOR STATE UNIVERSITY IS ENGROSSED Speaker S. F. O'Fallon Leading Republicans And D. E. Killam The Democrats, And Bill Is Unanimously Engrossed. Passage Is Assured. In keeping with his promise, the Hon. S. F. O'Fallon, speaker of the House of Representatives, surrendered the chair and took the floor in the interest of Mr. Moore's bill to make Lincoln Institute at Jefferson City, a University. Mr. O'Ellon made a strong and effective plea for the engrossment of the bill, stating that the State of Missouri owed it to its Colored citizens. Mr. D. E. Killam championed the bill from the democratic side of the house. Walthall M. Moore who fathered the bill spoke about thirty minutes, citing that the first money contributed toward Lincoln fortune was made by Colored soldiers who had in mind making it a University some day. He also told of the Negroes loyalty to every call to duty imposed upon him by state or nation just as any other citizen and was therefore entitled to an equal opportunity t o educate his children as others are. To the onlooker it appeared that after Mr. Moore had finished his remarks, the democratic as well as the republican members vied with each other to see who could reader the most service in promoting the bill. As a result, the bill was unanimously approved. Mr. Moore has made many friends among the law-makers of the state and it is certain that his bill will pass; its readiness.

Carter Presents Self As Regalia Salesman. Is Said To Have Got $1000 In Cash On Fluke Orders. Has Shady Career. A check for $110, was a direct factor in "checking" the wild career of Christopher Columbus Carter, 38 years old, murderer, theologian, burglar and exconvict, when Detective Addison Logan "checked" Carter at the 5th District police station, last Monday at 6 p.m., "as one of the cleverest confidence men in America." As a supposed salesman of Pettibon-regalia company, Cincinnati, Carter, alias "Charley," used a buco-stering scheme on members of the Masonic order in this city, and received in the course of eight days orders totaling $4000 for Masonic uniforms and regalia, on which, Carter told the police, he had received $1000 in cash. His Confession To Police He asserted that he came to St. Louis from Valparaiso, Ind., where he said he was acquitted on Feb. 21, (last month) of shooting and killing his brother-in-law, James D. Cook, editor of The National Defender and Sum. He admitted that he had served two years in the penitentiary at Jefferson City on a charge of burglary, and a prison term at Joliet, IL, that he was graduated from the High School at Quincy, IL, and later from the Theological Seminary of Chicago University, and that from 1916 to 1918 he was pastor of a Baptist Church at South Bend, Ind. A Real "Beau Brummel" Upon his arrival in St. Louis, Monday of last week, Carter secured a room at the Pine Street Department, Young Men's Christian Association. His baggage consisted of several hand-bags, which contained the furnishings of a "Beau Brummel," opera hat, an Atlas of the World and a Bible. He made a popular Market street safe his daily habitat; where he proved an adept in establishing himself into the confidences of some of his unfortunate victims. He was gracious in his bearing, an authority on almost any subject, and especially convincing in his arguments regarding the selling of uniforms and lodge-room supplies. The Argus has been informed that on Wednesday of last week, Carter appeared at the Craddock Uniform Co. located in the Arcade building, Eighth and Olive streets, and introducing himself as Grand Potentate of Medinah Temple. Colored Shriners' organization of St. Louis, said he was authorized by that body to select uniforms for them, and that they were making elaborate preparations for the Shriners Convention which will be held in St. Louis in August. Accepting Carter upon his own recommendation, the Craddock company gave him permission to use one of their elaborate sutin uniforms, decorated with hand-worked Egyptian heads, a supply of samples of cloth and price lists. With this outfit and Carter's eloquence, it was not long before he had taken an order of considerable size from Medinah Temple of Shriners. Carter said that a check of $110 made payable to him was all necessary to close the contract. Shrine officials notified Carter that the contract would be closed last Monday, and Emmett Toiley, 32K2 Larry avenue, recorder of Medinah Temple of Shriners, would issue the check for $110. During the parley, Toney telegraphed the Chinchinati-firm whom Carter said he was taking orders. The reply was, no such man was authorized to act for the company. Unaware of the investigation that had been conducted about him, Carter calls at the Toney residence at the appointed hour for the $110, which was there for him, also Detective Addison Logan and Leslie B. Taylor, the real potentate of Medinah Temple of Shriners, who escorted Carter to the police station, Carter had $11 when arrested. Carter was active in religious work and affiliated with the Christian Church of St. Louis, and was connected with the Western Union Relief Association, during the year of 1912. It is said that he misappropriated funds of that association. Wanted By Chicago Police Detective Logan who arrested Carter had also been "tipped" by Sheridan A. Brussels, of the Keystone National Detective agency, Chicago. Ill., retained by the Pettibone officials to retral the crook. Detective Brussels is in St. Louis for the purpose of taking Carter to Chicago where he is beawarded by the city officials. Carter will be held here. RELATIVES WANTED Anyone knowing the whereabouts of Margaret Johnson, last heard from she was in Danville, Virginia. She had a brother named Edward. He was in Richmond, Virginia at one time. Any information concerning either of the above, will be reawarded. Address St. Louis Argus. 2541 A Square Deal For Every Man PRICE 5 CENTS THE APPROPRIATION FOR A UNIVERSITY IS ENDANGERED Committee Refuses to Recommend Money. Plan Is To Pass Bill And Fight For The Appropriation On The Floor Of House. MASS MEETING AT CENTRAL BAPTIST CH. THIS SUNDAY 3:30 In a letter received Thursday morning, Representative Walthall M. Moore states that the Appropriation Committee of the House of Representatives has refused to recommend the appropriation of any money for the establishment of a university for Negroes. He said the chairman of the committee claimed that the money appropriated for the current expenses of Lincoln Institute was sufficient to be allow-for the education of the colored children, and refused to do more. Mr. Moore has been advised by members of the Legislature to push the passage of his bill and make a first later on the floor of the house for the appropriation. The bill, known as Committee Substitute for House Bill 386, which has been substituted for the original bill does not carry any amount with it, and in this regard differs materially from the original. It is the House. Substitute Bill which was sent to engrossment by unanimous vote last Saturday. That vote assures the passage of the bill, but leaves the appropriation for the university in danger. Mass Meeting To Be Held A mass meeting of citizens has been called for 3:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon at Central Baptist Church, Ewat and Washington, at which time the entire matter will be taken up and citizens are urged to attend in order to help in this matter.

HARDING'S DAD SEES HIS SON TAKE OATH WASHINGTON, D. C. March 5. — An honor given to few men—that of seeing a son swnon in as President of the United States—was granted yesterday to Dr George T. Harding, who, with tears streaming down his wrinkled cheeks, stood near his son as the oath of office was administered by Chief Justice White. Despite his advanced age, Dr. Harding, still a practicing physician in Marion, is vigorous and apparently in the best of health. At the conclusion of the ceremonies, Dr. Harding replied to friends, who commented on the excellence of the address, saying: "Yes, I said when he was nominated that Warren wnould make a good candidate. He will make a good, common-sense President, too. He was brought up that way and can't help." Willis Tally was found "Not Guilty" by a jury in Judge Hartman's court this week, after 30 minutes deliberation. Toney Angers, GS S.

The State had two witnesses of identify Tally. Tally has a big scar on the left side of his face, but these witnesses did not see the scar. He was defended by A. R. Garner of the Law Firm of Vaughn and Garner. AMUSEMENTS AND SPORT By H. F. M. Amon Davis and Eddie Stafford are at the head of a big company of clever performers at The Booker Washington Theatre this week. The outfit is called "The Wiff Waff Wabblers" and the show offered is about the best entertainer that has been seen at this playhouse. There is an abundance of good music, absolutely clean comedy and lively dancing. The "Shimmie" is much in evidence, but so different frmo the usual vulgarity that it takes the house by storm. Many clever features are crowded into the hour of entertaining. Probably the biggest hit is the male quartette which is a Jazz scream and gets repeated enchores. Among other bright spots are a "Wabile song by Harry Jackson and the girls, which is a sensation; A flirtation by Elveta Davis, Ethel Watts, Frank Holmes and one of the Jackson brothers; "Down in Chinatown" by Miss Watts and the girls; a "blues" song and classy dance by Miss Davis and male quartette; "Once in a While" by Harry Jackson and girls and a spirited song and dance finale that holds the house until the drop of the curtain. Just enough plot runs in the play to give Davis and Stafford plenty of opportunity to keep the audience laughing on account of their funny saying and doings. It centers on an elopement and carries two special scenes; a railroad station and a passenger train where there is much excitement on the rear, platform. It is a real big nifty show and is highly pleasing to the patrons. Another Edition Next Week Theatrepros will be pleased to learn that Davis and Stafford's "Wiff Waff Wabblers" will remain over next week, at The Booker-Washington with another and entire new edition of their show. The producers call it "The Second Episode" and promises even bigger surprises, in artistic features, than this week. **Sunshine Sambo Monday** The first of the Harold Lloyd and Saub Pollard comedies, featuring "Sunshine Sambo" Morrison, will be shown at The Booker Washington on Monday and will be repeated the following Sunday. Morrison is a wonderful little colored screen actor, and has been a sensation almost equal to Charlie Chaplin. He is about 9 years old. He started in working occasionally at $5 a day. A year ago his salary was said to be $700.00 a week regularly. He is the highest salaried colored person in the world today. Amon Davis, the comedian and producer who is a 'tThe B. W. Theatre this week, was the guest of Dude Kelly at dinner. Tuesday, Kelly was formerly a team-mate of Davis and their vaudeville combination was one of the best drawing cards on the stage. He is at home, resting after a spell of illness.

LANE TABERNACLE — The audience that tested the capacity of Lane Tabernacle met Sunday morning disregarding the pluvial weather would not have taken anything for their journey. Shortly after they had heard eloquent Bishop Isaac Lane, begin his sermon. Theological Seminary's have their value, but experience is the best teacher. 66 years of hard work in the ministry has given Bishop Lane an understanding, that cannot be surpassed. At times, we think he's a scientist, and then an astronomer, but this is merely a pleasing way Bishop Lane has of letting us know that he is just a god old gospel preacher, although he took his text from St. Paul's Colossians. He is a great believer in the plain spoken St. James and quotes James 1st chapter 5th verse. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God. Bishop Lane was elected at Augusta, Ga., in 1875 and was retired in St. Louis. 1914. But is yet in the harness, working just as hard as ever. Miles and Vanderhart were the first bishop the C. M. E. Church ever had, being elected 5 years before Bishop Lane. The late Bishop Rebeck and Hoseley, were elected with Bishop Lane. The speaker began the day early Sunday morning, by addressing the Senior Department of the Sunday School. Not 87 years old, but 87 years young. He says and his actions bear him out. Rev. H. C. Turner, a white local minister and writer of the Southern Methodist Church, who is an old friend of Bishop Lane was present with Greetings. Bishop Lane's text was taken from Colossius 1:19: "For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell." At 1 p. m., Bishop Lane presented Miss Cora Dinwildie, president of the Junior Board of Stewardess Sisters, with a Signet Gold Ring for over 5 years faithful service. Rev Owens, pastor of Galilee Baptist Church will preach for the Junior Stewardess Board at 3 p. m. Sunday, March 13. The Junior Stewardess will serve dinner all day Sunday M. E. Hawkins was a last Sunday evening, and his 20 minute message fell on eager and listening ears. Miss Francis Howell and Miss Florence Cleaves were certainly sweet at the piano and Mrs. Litscomb's beautiful voice will long be remembered. The Young Men's Bible Class invaded Lane Tubercule Monday night to the delight of all, with a well-staged concert. The musical portion of the concert was very good, but the literary, was far better. William Stovall, with his oration in which he tells of man's accomplishments since creation was the best on program, and there is no doubt about it. Comer Cox, with his poetical comedy was next. Other boys who drew special attention were; Robert Turner, Fred Carter and Milton Bracy, and we must also give the Young Men's Bible Class credit for one other thing. They said they would not have any girls to help make up their program and they did not. PARKS CHAPEL A. M. E—There will be special services at Parks Chapel A. M. E.

Claus, who is pastor of the Grace Lutheran Church on 15th and Morgan, recently received two lattering calls from other Lutheran congregations. The matter as to whether the congregation desired to give him a peaceful dismissal or retain him as pastor was discussed by the congregation at a special meeting, and it was the unanimous consent of the body that Rov. Claus remains as pastor. He is an able man and has been very successful in building up the local Lutheran congregation. Under his able leadership the church has reached the following figures: Membership 80; Sunday school enrollment 78; and day school enrollment 73. RANDOLPH SPRINGS HEALTH RESORT GREAT FOR COLORED AMERICANS This wonderful health resort, located in Randolph County, Missouri on the main line of the great Wabash Railroad nearly midway between St. Louis and Kansas City is the Negroes' Golden Opportunity. Here we have sixty acres of the finest lands in central Missouri, with beautiful, useful and costly improvements upon it. With the best medicinal mineral waters found any where in the United States, in great quantities buried beneath its soil, and now flowing out for the healing of math is. Here Is Our 'National Hot Springs Fourteen fine buildings are already erected upon this site; among which are two good hotels and a first-class bath house all ready for use. The furnishings of these buildings are the best that money could buy. This 60 acres of ground is laid out in town lots upon which it is intended to build a permanent health city and pleasure resort where our people may go and get first class treatment without insult, or humiliation of any kind. Colored Americans with capital, here is your choice. This proposed city already has complete sewerage with good water and two systems of lighting for all buildings and the entire grounds. n e l d e s 5 p n t l y n d l y s b e l n t h a d, l n h n t a h o r t o n e r o y l p Every woman knows that beauty of the face is impossible if the skin is pimply, blotchy, dark and rough. To remove the unsightly skin blisters, make the face, neck, arms and hands bright, soft and smooth, there's nothing better than those two well-known beauty preparations-Black and White Ointment and Black and White Soap.

The Randolph Springs waters are simply incompatible and invaluable in the treatment of all forms of liver stomach, bladder and kidney trouble, resulting in Bright's disease, diabetes, rheumatism, (muscular, sciatic, inflammatory) gout, dropsy, genito-urinary complications, or from alliments, arising from impure or impiished blood. These palatable and natural mineral waters offer a relief and assurance of cure. If you are suffering from over-work, nervous prostration, general debility—if you need rest and treatment for upholding of the nervous system—if you need out-door exercise in a delightful climate, in pure and invigorating air, with all forms of out-door amusements—Randolph Springs offers just what you want. This resort will appeal especially to the residents of Kansas City and St. Louis because from each city it can be reached by either auto or by rail in five or six hours; thus week ends from both places may be spent at this beautiful health resort of Colored Americans.

BAPTISTS $15,000 DRIVE The Baptists of the State of Missouri are in a $40,000 Campaign for the Western College, which has been located at Macon, Mo., for the past 25 years. They have purchased a new home for the College at Kansas City, Mo., and this campaign is for the purpose of paying every dollar of the purchase price. This school is doing great work in educating young men and women for Christian work in the Master's kingdom. Graduates of this school are doing effective work in Missouri, Kansas, Illinois and the dark continent of Africa. The Baptists of St. Louis and vicinity are destined to be the biggest factors in this campaign. They have had some meetings at the First Baptist Church, and the organization and plans for raising $15,000 are nearly complete. They have appointed about 50 members of the "Steering Committee." These active members are pushing things right to the front. The work is to be done by 25 or more teams. Each team's goal is $500 or more. The Drive will open March 15 and run for 10 days, or until March 25, 1921. Each night the teams will be served lunch at the First Baptist Church. Mr. J. P. Harris has been appointed Director General of the Big Drive. A SKIN BEAUTIFIER FOR MEN AND WOMEN If you want a beautiful complexon, use HOPKIN'S ANTISEPTIC CREAM.

S. A. No one witnessing the inaugural address delivered by President Warren G. Harding could go away without having been profoundly impressed with the sincerity of his purpose. As we listened to the words of President Harding, March 4th, we thought of the wonderful opportunity he will have during the next four years to become the greatest man in all the world. We thought of the responsibilities that fell upon his shoulders as soon as he took the oath of office, and we thought of the responsibility of the Republican Party to redeem this country from the one-man rule. We believe that the Nation's chief executive is right at heart and that he will be president of all the people. Therefore we were very much pleased to see the new president take hold upon the reins of the government at this time. It inspires hope to a struggling race. We have his promises, we also have the promises of the Republican Party for a square deal. That we shall expect. We shall not ask more nor shall we be satisfied with anything less.

As we stood at an advantageous course we thought of the pleasure, as we their enemy defeated. But she rushed into our feelings. Instead of President of the richest nation in the live he had spent seven years of leagl, yea, more than glad to see him, yet we could not but pity one so wore. While we were yet gazing upon eight yeas of his administration as only thoughts can travel. We of Wilsonism at Washington how as citizens of this country; the pie in the government departments at hundreds of men of our Race who United States positions and had been for a moment, for a word from against mob-violence, disfranchis but found none, no, not a word—we thought of Pharaoh, and the chil selves, surely the Lord has had a lie. That Wilson has suffered much that he has been mistreated. Let us but let us not forget how he as chie the most local group of Americans.

Instead of the appearance of the richest nation in the world, Woodrow was seven years of lean and famine. And then glad to see him give up the reins of the lot but pity one so wrecked in health, were yet giving upon the pale form of the his administration passed before our ministers can travel. We recalled that during the war Washington how the Negroes had been this country; the picture of the first race department departments at Washington passed the men of our Race who had heretofore held positions and had been kicked out; and there, for a word from Woodrow Wilson, we violence, disfranchisement, segregation, we no not a word—Ancient history came Pharaoh, and the children of Israel, then by the Lord has had a hand in this.

Let us admit for the sake of forget how he as chief executive of the Nation group of American citizens, think of the wrongs that Woodrow Wilson, through his subordinates, and when from the Holy writ says, "Righteous in is a reproach to any people," then we see Woodrow Wilson abdicated the office of states, the most despised man who has ever We must confess that we were somewhat disappointed in our feelings when we saw Woodrow Wilson just before he abdicated the office of President of the United States. As we stood at an advantageous point to see Woodrow pass, of course we thought of the pleasure that usually comes to one when they are their enemy defeated. But when our eyes beheld Mr. Wilson, pity rushed into our feelings. Instead of the appearance of eight years as President of the richest nation in the world, Woodrow Wilson looked live he had spent seven years of lean and famine. And while we were glad, yet, more than glad to see him give up the reins of the government, yet we could not but pity one so wrecked in health. While we were yet gazing upon the pale form of the ex-president, eight years of his administration passed before our minds as quickly as only thoughts can travel. We recalled that during the eight years of Wilsonism at Washington how the Negroes had been maltreated as citizens of this country; the picture of the first racial segregation in the government departments at Washington passed in review; the hundreds of men of our Race who had herefore held honorable United States positions and had been kicked out; and then we searched for a moment, for a word from Woodrow Wilson, while president, against mob-vidence, distructure, segregation, or injustices; but found none, not one word—Ancient history came to our mind, we thought of Pharaoh, and the children of Israel, then we said to ourselves, surely the Lord has had a hand in this. That Wilson has suffered much, there is no doubt in our mind; that he has been mistreated. Let us admit for the sake of an argument, but let us not forget how he as chief executive of the Nation mistreated the most loyal group of American citizens. When we think of the wrongs that Woodrow Wilson committed upon the Negroes, through his subordinates, and when we think of that passage from the Holy writ which says, "Righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people," then we can understand the more why Woodrow Wilson abdicated the office of Presidency of the United States, the most despised man who has ever left that office.
