THREE ARE LYNCHED IN GEORGIA AS U.S. CONGRESS OPENS Chinese Delegation Quits Conference On Limitation Of Armaments In A Row An Exponent of Truth and Justice VOL. X NO. 34 THREE A Chinese D EXPERIENCE DISGUSTING TO ORIENTALS Negative Results And "Being Freezed Out," Together With Rising Tide Of Color Question Effected Their Morale. More evidence of the failures of the Washington Disarmament Conference looms, every day. Threats to quit the conference on the part of plenaries went beyond the bluffing" stage during the disarmament itself in their resignations and it is believed that the orientals are ready to pack their trunks, wipe the dust of America from their feet and journey back to the Far East very much "disgusted" by their experience. Dr. K. C. Tyan, leader of the delegation stated that "negative results" and "being freezed out" by committee work were the principal cause for their decision to quit the conference, but those better acquainted with the facts declare that the rising tide of the color China, hence they have decided that, best way out of an incompatible situation is to move. Caucasian Psychology An interesting side light on the way whit, mean minds move was furnished by the attitude of an American official who assumed a severe criticism toward the Chinese resigning delegates. Most colored folks will recognize the type by the fact that this official pointed out to the Chinese, satemen that, "the conference is making great progress, and China finds herself in a strong position, face to face with all the nations interested in affairs of the Far East, with their representatives disposed to do everything possible to aid in restoring China's integrity and financial rehabilitation." Many of the Chinese delegation that see thru 'the well phrased bureaucracy and are absolutely sincer, in their determination to not be a party to the further raping of their country, it appears from reports, and there appear to be men on their committee capable of weighing world and racial affairs in their true light, stripped of all hypocritical subterfuge. One spokesman for China, counseled a more serious attitude on the part of this country and that the larger economic differences be adjusted first and that minor differences be left to a later date. He said that "he was in a position to say that, the leaders of the conference had decided just how the Far Eastern matters should be set and that China would be forced to take what was given her. "So far for the conference, has been this appointing," confirmed this spokesman. Japan China Agreement Possible. In the parley between the Japanese and Chinese delegations no decision was reached on the subject of public property, consisting of roads, waterworks, telephone and telegraph. Masonan Haushaul of the Japanese delegation stated, however, that Japan is prepared to go any reasonable, length of a settlement of one of the vexing questions concerning Chinese territory "Our minds," he said, "are open to any suggestion." The Anglo Japan Alliance. From the reports it appears that Britian is rather anxious to get rid of her alliance with Japan but she is very desirous of having an initiative in this direction taken by Japan. The British. "We are ready to negotiate alliance but we are not ready to deprive it. It is a case of loyalty and gratitude toward Japan. She has done her duty during the late war and has kept all her promises. If now the treaty is to be scraped, it will be upon the request of Japan. The Japanese say: "We do not attack the importance to the treaty W. did formerly. It has no more the same material value; but it has a moral value. Why not substitute for the alliance of two powers the alliance of four or five powers?" **Will It Work** The idea gains ground amongst European diplomats but it is reported that the same racial bias which popped up at Versailles and afterward the effected the Voronikies confessed to its appearance at the Washington conference. The idea of a world alliance is impossible without an alliance between all races. This is in the face of, and a direct challenge to, the American idea of race and it is a direct challenge to the American idea of inherent white superiority because it is well understood in diplomatic circles that Japan has the will and the power to demand abolition and unequivocal recognition as a greater world power. In the mean time Japan is gaining high and blinding American China is not willing to accept America's standing The St. Louis Argus CHINA PRESENTS DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE Pleads And Contends For Equal Opportunity And International Justice, In A Manner That Is Amazing To Other Delegates The Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C. Dec. 7—President Harding has seen the vision of an "Association of Nations," the thing he contended for, during the campaign of 1920. So remarkable and peaceably satisfactory have been the development of the Disarmament Committee, which has regularly discussed with the newspaper correspondents, the President let his hopes and will be known. That there may be perhaps annually, a gathering of nations, so to speak, for discussion and conference on subjects of mutual interest. Perhaps out of such a gathering, there might develop an international court, but it must be understood that this court would not be a mere discussion or anything like, it, the Administration desires it expressly understood. Naturally, such a proposal, excites both the curiosity and skepticism of Senator, Borah, and others akin to his ideas. The western Senator arises to say: "What's in name? A League by any other name would be just as impossible." Nevertheless, the proposal of the President, has, with the great fortune he has enjoyed at other times, many directions, met with hearty approval in opinions expressed informally by the various powers. China and Japan Contend China has stressed for herself in this recent conference. She has pleaded and confessed for equal opportunity and international justice in a manner that has proved amazing. So remarkably clever and diplomatic have been the presentation of her claims, particularly in the now famous "Ten Points," that many were led to believe that they were inspired by Secretary Hughes. So suspicious were the comments, that an official denial was made the assertion being that China was the architect of her own fortunes. China, therefore, has presented a new "Declaration of Independence" which has seemingly been a frank and fair: that all of the, other nations, including Japan, have had to subscribe to the justness of her claims, China, then, enters, the world, of the defense of China, backed by the best traditions of th, ancient civilization of Confucius, marches on th bigger and better things, drawing unto herself that which is best among the whites, nations of the world, promising to be a new example of potentialities and possibilities of a darker people. Japan, with that unfreeing face of the Sphinx, is demonstrating beautifully how to contend for the things wanted. In scraping of warships, Japan may not finally get the number, or maintain the proportion that she thinks she should have, but Japan is trivial, mysterious and visually demanding. Our cannot help contrast the deference to Japan with the paternal tenderness with which the Powers, are wont to Consider China. There is positiveness and position in power. It is a lesson much to be noted by our group. Respect comes with power, not merely with numbers. China has practically ten times as many people as Japan, but Japan has power behind her numbers, and China is getting better at respect might not Colored Americans get from the nation and the sections of the nations, had we more power? Like China, we have been sleeping, like China, we are now awake. JAPANESE SPONSENMAN URGES RACE EQUALITY AND EQUAL OPPORTUNITY BOSTON, Dec. 7.—The principles governing the heterogeneous congregation of humanity that comprises the Far East should rest on a basis as broad, just and eternal as the cardinal doctrine of Christianity—the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man; said Dr. Toyokichi Iyemanga in a forum address here. “There should follow” he continued “the recognition of such principles as race equality on the same basis as the equality of all men before the laws; the freedom of communication over the high seas and through the air; the open door and equal opportunity to all—which means the breaking down of barriers that bar free access and free trade, and finally the breaking up of the nationalities which breed short-horned patriciasm, Judeo-Islamic and a world federation of these kind.” Concerning a solution of the Pacific and Far East problems, Dr. Iyemanga said: “Himmy says to doing about a new adaptation without due regard to the old. Iyemanga will be trouble. This final world of our cannot stand the sudden sampling of the likes of claims that link us to the past. What we would be an evolution to better things and an a revolution to better things.” Published In The Interest Of Colored People ST.LOUIS,MO.,FRIDAY,DECEMBER 9,1921 BRITISH INVESTIGATING CASE OF MINISTER K.

AMERICAN NEGRO DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY WRITES TEXT BOOK IN GERMAN AMERICAN NEGRO DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY WRITES TEXT BOOK IN GERMAN Masterpiece Of. Psychological Research, By Dr. G. H. Jones, Used In Harvard The Associated Negro Press WILHERFORCE. Ohio, Dec. 7. Dr. Gilbert H. Jones, dean of the liberal Arts College of Wilberforce University, is the author of a book used in Harvard, and sought by other leading American universities. Dr. Jones holds a doctor's degree, from the University of Joan, Germany, and his book, a thesis written at his graduation, is considered a masterpiece of psychological research. The work, originally written in German, was at first used by the university of Connellan Place. It finally led to the universities of America, and at the present time, there is a copy of it in the Harvard Library that may not be taken out. Boston University is one of the institutions seeking to use Dr. Jones' books, as well as to translate it. In writing to Dr. Jones, the university expressed its appreciation of the depin and sum, of the work, and also expressed the hope that Dr. Jones may soon take his proper place beside other great American scholars. The book is a monogram of 140 pages, written by Dr. Jones as his graduation thesis. It is a treatise on the work of Lozz and Browne, two great American authors, who have authorized authority on those two masters. Dr Jones is one of the few Americans, and the only American Negro to receive the degree of Doctor of Philosophy from a foreign university. He is the author of several other textbooks, and is one of the greatest students of philosophy in America today. GRAND JURY FREES MAN CHARGED WITH FELLOW WORKER'S DEATH AMERICUS. Ga., Dec. 9.

College Presidents, teachers, students layman, professional and business men joined heartily into the discussions of the problems of today as well as those things which will affect the immediate future of all races of the world. The outstanding feature of the conference was the address of Dr John R. Mott, General Secretary of the International Committee to Young Men's Christian Association in New York. Mr. Mott is perhaps the best informed man in this country on the interracial question. He has travelled all over the world and has made a study of all races. He characterizes the present-day as dangerous. "Race prejudice" he said, "is being fist 16 all the world today as never before. The darker races against the whites and the whites against the darker. I think of the future in wonder and apprehension. Tales Christian brotherhood takes hold on this old world God alone can tell what is to happen. "The Young Men's Christian Association believes in the presidential misuse of race. It stands for the fullest development abl expression of each race. It has constantly kept in mind the vision of world brotherhood." "The great need of the world today is apostles of reconciliation in all the troops of social injustice and neglect. It is true in International affairs in times of distrust like these. It is even more true in interracial relations." The speaker made known the plans of a world conference to be held under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. at "Peking, China next April," when the educated leaders of more than 30 countries will take council together, and project constructive plans for promoting "good will among those who tomorrow are to lead the affairs of man."

Williams, principal of Summer High School of St. Louis. The sessions were held in the 9th Street Y. M. C. A. Building About 20 representatives were in attendance. Dr. J. E.

THE SINCERITY OF REPUBLICAN PARTY COMES TO A TEST Anti-Lynching Bill Backed By Popular Sentiment And OK'd By The Department Of Justice Is Now Before A G.O.P. Congress The Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 7.—Congress has taken on new heat. It has started 'on th., last lap of the race prior to the Congressional elections of 1922. President Harding has delivered another message, and the way is being cleared to do some constructive, work before the day of reckoning. It must be confessed that Congress, thus far, has done little or nothing of a constructive nature, to endure itself directly to Colored citizens. Now and then there has been a flash of effort that has given a ray of hope to the people. It has given a ray of hope to a screen of fraternity, that indicated to the people most interested that, there is nothing doing. Consequently the people are, looking out on the landscape of Congressional action with a degree of skepticism born of continuous disappointment. From all the authoritative sources in legislative circles on the House, side, the people are lead to believe, that among the first measures to be considered in the new aid regular session of Congress will be the Dyer Anti-Lynch bill. It has been considered and reconsidered by the various committees of the House, passed on and okeyed by the Department of Justice, and has strong Administration backing. Popular favor groups such a bill. If under these circumstances, Congress falls to pass the Anti-Lynch bill, then there will be good reason to doubt the sincerity of the party in power, much more renon than at present, and there has been much reason thus far, according to statistics of state at omission, commission gathered by the experts on political accomplishment.

Sheriff Turns Prisoners Over To Mob Before They Are Taken To Jail. Special to the Argus. WATKINSVILLE, Ga., Dec. 8—The Colored people of this community are very much wrought up over the recent lynching of three Negroes, LeRoy Graves, Webster Hale and Aaron Bird-sons. The trouble, which terminated in the triple lynching, started Saturday night near here when, a crowd of drunken whites attacked these colored men, who were on their way to the town as is their usual custom on Saturday evening.

(Sunday) friends joined the wounded men and a posses kept up a search for the Negro all day, late Sunday night the sheriff arrested the three, a gray or white house, a black mob which took them about three quarters of a mile down the road, hung them to three separate trees and riddled their bodies with bullets. As a result of this lynching many families of colored people are leaving the community. Lay Ray Graves and Webster Hade were married, and it is said that their families were afraid to stay in the community long enough to bury them. Their bodies were left for the county to bury. Arkansas Mob Lynches Young Negro Who Wrote Letter To A White Girl LITTLE ROOK, Ark. Dec. 7. - Hobert Hicks, aged about 23, was lynched beside a public highway about four miles southwest of Lake Village, according to information received here. Hicks is said to have written a letter to an 11-year old Lake Village white girl. Efforts were made by Lake Village residents to suppress news of the lynchment. However it leaked out yesterday, and the reports were confirmed. Hicks was apprehended by several Lake Village men when he appeared at the young woman's home and asked if she was taken to a point about four miles from Lake Village, and his body was abducted with infants.

ABDUL BAHA PASHA "SERVANT OF GOD" DIES NEW YORK, Dec. 7 — (Special) A table from Iftaafi Syrri, announces the death of Abdul Baha, event of Cabe, expimder of the Hahai incident and recognized as one of the greatest philosophers of modern times. In spite of the age old indifference of religious beliefs and mankind's universal joyfulness of his chosen faith, Bahaiism, so called, has taken a greater hold on the masses of mankind than any teaching since the life of Gaufaim Budha. It is claimed that 50,000,000 people believe in and practice the Bahai-side philosophy that "of one blood God made all nations." There are many people in the United States who have believed in Christianity and have become Bahaiians because, of the hypocrisy of so-called Christians on the color question. Abulbah Bahu was born at Teheran, Persia, of noble parentage. In 1903 he and his father were invited to the prison of Akka, in Syria. When the Young, Turks overthrew the despotic rule of the Sultan in 1908 he was freed and in 1912 he travelled through America. On May 1 of that year he danced the site at Chicago where the Bahaisah are now building a temple resting many millions of dollars which is intended as the center of their culture for all the world.

AN EXPLANATION Present Boys Social Club West End Negro Business Metis Association: We the members of the Crescent Boys express to you just how we feel toward the Association and its great work for the race. On Thursday night Nov. 24, we entertained a girls club with a dinner party, the buying and arrangement of the merchandise of the metis, who thoughtlessly bought most if not all of the foodstuff from non members of your association. We are very sorry this happened and after listening to a short talk from Mr. Allee J. Jones on Negro enterprises, their future and ours as well, we decided to write a letter to the association when giving affairs of this kind, we will as near as possible give our patronage to the Negro merchants who are trying to make a future for us. We realize this future will never be unless we younger people give all the assistance we can possibly render to it; and we intend not to help by our support alone but will go further and make known among the other clubs of the city just what the Association is trying to do. In spite of you will pardon us for this thoughtfulness, we need to your sincerest wishes for a successful year. The Creative Boy's Social Club: Augustus Allen, president; Hartwee Mossby; Secretary.

ECCENTRICITY FEATURES THE BOOKER WASHINGTON PROGRAM OF VAUDEVILLE Vaudeville in which most of the performers vie with each other for honors in absurdity, makes up the bill at the Booker Washington Theatre, this week. The curtain rises on Nelson and McPhearson, a man and woman who have a squabble over a ten dollar bill which she wants but he retains. After their come out to she satisfies herself with giving some helpful advice to th, women in the audience which is nonsensical and erotic. Of course it is only intended to amuse, and it seems to serve the purpose. A jelly roll" song "I can't giving nothing away," is also in the same strain. The man is a comical dancer. Jones and Jones touch the funny bong principally because of the toothpick-shape of the male member. They have a number of good jokes and the man also competes for entertainment ponors. "Wedding Blues" and a conventional song made of an old title win praise. Bush and Alexander come next. They open with a tiltation song and dance followed with a few clever jokes. Miss Bush their sings "just like a rainbow in the sky." She is a neat and fascinating little actress, and wins the favor of the audience. Mr. Alexander blows artistic soft shades dancing and painting which gets an encore. The team closes with a Hawkins song and dance which possesses all the grace this oriental style allows. Buss and Wilke. Porter close the show with a lively round of songs, dances and humorous savings. They feature the Railroad Blues, and have a whirlwind song and dance climax. NEXT WEEK Next week's vancouver ball at the Booker Washington will consist of Hocks and Rampops, a sister team Williams and Brooks, a pair of stages, Berbina Blanks, the favorite contract to formerly of the Blanks Sisters; and Brown and Brown, in a clever dancing act.

She sees out to run the main responsible for her brother's suicide, and stops at nightrooms to achieve her end. Hate is the motive that makes her marry him. Then suddenly she and that a mirage has happened, that she no longer hates the man. Just what happens to her, and how, makes an interesting story.

Photo Play Theatre UNDER THE DIRECTION OF Pianist Violinist THURSDAY DEC. 15 moves smoothly and rapidly to a wholly unexpected climax. Gloria Swanson in "The Great Moment will be presented on Thursday. It deals with the love affair of a half-girl girl and Western mining engineer." House Piers and Irene Rich play the leading roles in "The Invictible Power" which comes to the second act of Theatre this Sunday and Monday. If there is any moral to be gleamed from, from t h i s powerful emotional drama, it is that it little beats the best of us to point the finger at the worst of us. The story itself deals with the regeneration of an unnierworld character and the sacrifices that his wife, the school teacher, daughter of a minister, makes to help him go straight." The very fact, however, he heins once been in jail, keeps him under the surveillance of the police, so much that even his wife becomes suspicious in the politics of the secret police and watch the activities of the famous characters. The story is not only logical and consistent, but the plot develops into a personal drama of self-sacrifice on the part of the ex-convict's wife that every mother and every father will sympathize with and condone. On Tuesday, Alice Calhoun will be presented in "Closed Doors." The special attraction for Wednesday and Thursday will be Thomas Meghan in the Conquest of Canaan. The story dates to a young man and woman who are social outcasts in their town of Canaan, but who own efforts to overcome and become "respectable." The young man becomes Mayor and the girl—well, she becomes the Mayor's wife. An excellent story is unfolded. Constance Talmadge will be seen at the Olympia, this Saturday in "Woman's Place." Connie is shown running for mayor, and hypnotizing her audiences with her dazzling smile and gorgeous gown. She manages to get the votes of practically every man in the city, and, as a candidate of the woman's party, is counting on the women to do things according to program. But also, women don't do things according to program. Jeannie creeps in—and out of—the women vote for the man candidate. The picture is one of the most amusing things this talented star has done, and the story is the work of John Emerson and Anita Lols. On Sunday, the Olympia will present Tom Mix in "The Rough Diamond." In this production Mix displays unsuspected talents as a roving adventurer and as an artist in ginnean comedy and as an artist in addition to furnishing his customary dress, a standing speed action. Besides wide-ranging stairs of a South American president's palace and careering through its marble balls, Mix at one of the big dramatic moments in the picture rides headlong off a pier into the ocean to catch an outgoing ship. Aside from the thrills, too, the star gives an astounding demonstration of ability as a comedian. "The Devil Within." And "The Range — Pirate."—Caskets Dusip Faraum in "The Devil Within" will be the Casino Theatre feature this Saturday. The picture fades in with a scene of a towering brute of a sea captain who treats his crew with parental cruelty. The only one that dares question his wishes is Dr. Phillip, whom the captain respects slightly for his mental superiority. In a drunken craze the shipmaster arouses the wrath of some island savages by confessing one of their idols—thereby, drawing upon himself a native witch's curse. From then on a series of misfortunes befits the aging man. His redemption is finally accomplished through suffering. The love theme has to do with the captain's nephew. Al Hart and Jack Moore will be seen at this theatre on Sunday in "The Hangs Private." It is a Western cowboy drama of the thrills and true love, in which the audience can enjoy a happy romance. There are two love stories and many thrilling scenes, never overdrawn but, replete with suspense and heart interest. William Duswell will be presented at the Lincoln theatre on Saturday in "The Lady from Longueville." This philobyte tells the story of an aristocrat inclined to slay from the stair and diagnet path of high society into the fold of the lower and more human class. The Anthony is his name, and he can be sent to Tony. When Tony and the Intreative princess of a jungle kingdom his adventures begin, and they do not stop until he encounters a system to rescue him from a distressed village. A double renamed princess she offers, which is filled with lively action. William Duswell and a cost of notebar screen often will be seen at the Lincoln on Sunday in "Women Men Love." A novel situation is developed in this comedian's real drama: the story of a damsel who, in love with an aristocrat, becomes involved in a love affair that ends at the Lincoln theatre.

B. Ziff Co., 608 South Dearborn St., Chicago, Ill. COLOR QUESTION LOOMS AT DISARMAMENT CONFERENCE BY SEVERING their connection with the disarmament conference, on the part of the Chinese delegation, the color question becomes more acute as an obstacle in the way of a successful conference. CHINESE, LIKE the Japanese are beginning to see, and fully realize that there is much insincerity in the actions of the Anglo-Saxon, and that the real purpose of the conference was to establish for all times, what some call "White Supremacy." OF COURSE, the Japanese statesmen knew this much better than did the Chinese, hence they are merely "marking time" and watching. WE CAN'T but sympathize with those who are victims of color prejudice. God has of one blood, created all men to dwell upon the earth. It has pleased Him to fashion them according to His will. He has made the birds, the flowers and the peasts of all kinds. It is utter folly for one race to boast of its superiority, simply because of its color. The body who knows anything about the spirit of the white man in America can appreciate the difficulties which the conference is facing at this time. THE UNFORTUNATE PART about the conference is that it was called and assembled in America, the "Hell-hole" of color-prejudice; where "White Supremacy" is the boast of the white man. No one will doubt a minute but that every possible effort will be made by Secretary Hughes to make good this boast. Japan is the object of offense, because she is the leader among the darter races of the world. It was through fear of her rising power that the white races of the world got so "tender-hearted," that they were willing to confer on disarmament. TRIPLE LYNCHING IN GEORGIA THE SEMI-SAVAGE, Lily White, Ku-Klux-Klan, and their ilk, down in Georgia, celebrated the opening of the Sixty-Seventh Congress by lynching three Negroes. OF COURSE, they had seen their national leader, Tom Watson, defy a Republican Senate to confirm "Link" Johnson, and their chief, William J. Simmons, Imperial Wizard of the Ku-Klux, by one fainting spell, scare a Senate Committee into a fit of so near so, that the investigation of the Klan organization was dropped as though it were a hot iron. They also knew that there is no law in Georgia against lynching, (except there is no particular praise of the mob who only lynch one,) so why shouldn't these semi-savage, Lily White, Ku-Klux-Klan give the Sixty-Seventh Congress of the United States a little "buzzer" for their opening session. THE STRANGE THING about the matter is that the Congress of the United States continue to declare itself powerless to act in the defense of life and property. Inasmuch as the anti-Lynching Bill has been talked about, and all the same savage, Lily Whites and Ku-Klux-Klans of the South have heard about it, our very heart stands still when we anticipate how the lives of the Colored people of the South are jeopardized. THE CONGRESS of the United States owes it to the people of the country in support of their oath of office, to speedily pass adequate laws to protect the lives and property of the Colored people of America. HARDING'S SPEECH BEARING FRUIT MISGUIDED BY PRESIDENT HARDING'S Birmingham speech, the City Council at Atlanta, Georgia, passed an ordinance prohibiting white and colored people from worshipping God under the same roof at one time, and prohibiting white instructors from teaching colored and vice versa. IT IS SAID that the chief argument in favor of such an ordinance was, that the social contact, of teacher and pupil was nothing less than social equality. And that the social contact of preacher and parishoner was social equality. THIS IS THE FIRST time in the history of the South that the lines of contact between the races have been so closely drawn by the law-makers. UNDOUBTEDLY THE imaginations of these solons have been over-drawn on account of President Harding's speech on social equality at Birmingham some time ago. OF COURSE, THE MAYOR of Atlanta vetoed the Law. But the point is, the mischief that is likely to follow the ill-advised utterance of President Harding is already apparent. Boys' Question Contest Constained from Page one tion. The answers as given by the two boys, wishing the first, second and third prizes were as follows: BY FRANK MITCHELL 1. If I had $10000 I would wins $500 in The St. Louis Argus and the remaining fifty, double hundred I would put in the bank (some) I will be ready to go to college. In another half year I will pay my tuition fees in college. 2. My best boy, friend spends his money on clothing which is to my mind 6 years wasteful and unnecessary thing to do. 3. My best boy friend goes to church every Sunday and through the week day he goes to school and in the evening goes to a picture show about twice a week at home or at house. To have fun he visits my house, where we play games and various kinds of music. 4. Monday evening was spent at the Argus Publishing Company; Tuesday was spent at the orchestra practice at school; Wednesday spent at the Argus Publishing Company; Thursday spent at the Argus, Publishing Company; Friday spent at the Argus, to begin the Saturday spent playing the reception at the Y.M.C.A.

I would like to visit Washington, D.C. to see the buildings in which all matter, concerning the United States are transacted, and the men who voices govern the activities of the United States.

I have said quarrels caused from trying to talk fairly meddling and disobedient. 7 Jack London's "Burning Daylight" covers me the most pleasure in reading because I enjoy reading of the Canadian life, and the Canadian villages. In London's book we get a yirriri when make it very pleasing to read. The things that I dislike about my boy friend are he spends too much money on clothes, and he exerts himself to keep up with the higher society. The things that I dislike about my boy friend are he spends too much. Thing that I like about him are he tries hard to keep from hurting my feelings, and he does all he can to help me in anything I undertake. Thing that I dislike about the boy whom I dislike, most are he beats about how bad he is. He does not attend Sunday School or day school, he smokes cigarettes and he constantly does something which will give him opportunity to fight with me. 10. I go to school to get education because education is the fundamental principle of success and without education it I impossible to climb the dadder to success. I also go to school to prepare myself to use my personal intelligence and just because it might be for the deterriment of my people. 11. I go to church and Sunday school every Sunday and for my regular attendance, I have received a gold button and a gold wreath for attending Sunday School two years without missing a Sunday. 12. Bad habits which tempt boys strong something that does not belong to them can sambale, to quit school, to drift into bad games of boys, to no, bad language and to no, actual intercourse. 13. All tobacco is poison in it and MEMBER mintine has been proved by specialists as poisonous to the body, it also prevents the growth so therefore I should not use tobacco. Alcohol has been proved to cook and destroy the tissues of the body causing a man unit to stand the test of a perfect and sound body, so I should not use alcoholic drinks. 14. I should be grateful and obedient to my parents because they strive to have me doing something. They have endured hardships which were for my good, and most of all the Bible says honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long on the land the Lord thy God given thee. When I grow up I mean to be a journalist for the St. Louis Argus and for an avocation. I mean to be a violinist, both of which begins to make me a benefit to my race. BY CHARLES K. HUMPHRIES 1. If I had a thousand dollars I would immediately give one to the church, one to the charity to the church, one to the mother and one to put five tenths in the bank for my future education and one-tenth to the Orphasus Home. 2 My best boy friend spends his money in a most useful manner. He is on the alert always to donate to charitable institutions. Out of this weekly allowances he gives a part to the church some for recreation and some for school expenses. He attends church and Sunday School and the B. Y. P. U. on Sunday evenings. During the week he attends regular school. For his recreation he attends the movies, plays basketball, and attends social gatherings when time permits. He also participates in some of the games at the Y M C A. 4 I spent each evening last week, viz. Sunday, I attended the B. Y. P. J. Monday I stayed home and studied; Monday the same Wednesday I sold books in the library; I played the football game I Friday I went to entertainment for football boys and Saturday I visited a friend 5. Clearly I would like to visit Washington, to make a study of the city and to view the site, and buildings of interest. I would be interested in seeing all the Government buildings and see how a law is made and passed upon. I would also like to visit and see the Howard I.iversity. I have not had many nights and questioned these that I was so uninformed to make a study of my feeling to protect bodies of my self and myself. I have not fought or organized except in self defense and this happened mostly when I was under 10 years of age when I did not consider the results. 7. The book that has given me the most pleasure in reading is "The Story of My Life" by Mrs. Kollar. 8. I am indebted to say that I do not dislike one thing about my best friend for forty years over the two months that I like about him to be so irritable, mannerly respectful and its beautifies the highest type of a young woman. 19 The things that I dislike about the boy I dislike most are: He is not very studious; he has not the best of man- ners and does not know how to con- trol himself in society of company and does not not attend church or Sunday School. I go to School to exercise and stu- mate my brain to get the feel material that I will so much need in life's work. I also go to School to train myself on the higher thing, in life and to build a foundation and character that I may achieve in future years. I also attend a hysterian Church and Sunday School. 19. The bad things that tempt the most strongly are: Smoking, living sheating, sweating, not attending Sunday School and regular school. 15. I should be grateful, and敬畏, to my parents because. I feel sure I can possess on myself that the only thought that would contrain me would be: Honor thy mother and, if father that thy dates may be long in the land Lord God giveeth thee also be given to me and taken care of me, to help me as a man of myself. 16 When I grew up, I would be a pharmacist. I also hope to in-law, mother and in the town of my business, and bag her a pleasant and cool home there. I also hope to be able in the future, to help and strive to see Negro business and all helpful enterprise concerning them at the top. **BY CORNELIUS RAILY** 1 If I had $1,000 I would lay aside a part of it with which to complete my work. I would also give to charity as I should see it and utilize the remainder of the Lord's kingdom through donating to missions. 2 My best boy friend does not spend his money wisely. He delights in every motion picture shows every night and throws away entirely too much money on luxuries. 3. He goes to a "Penny Arcade" and motion picture shows very frequently, summarily he does not put much time in there, but when he gets from the streets from the moment he gets from school until sight of time clock. 4. Each evening last week after having finished my work I put an hour and twenty minutes on my lessons, read a magazine, and the evening paper. 5. I would like to visit Washington, D. C. because it is the capital of this nation. I would be interested in seeing the "Hall of Fame" also the hall of Frederick Douglass who was, one of our greatest men, and "The Senate Chamber." 6. I haven't had many fights, but I've had quite a few quarrels. The effort to get the other boy or on my own part to fight has been signed the fights. Quarrels were due to the fact that I never wanted to believe that I was wrong. 7. "The Sketch Book," by Washington Irving has given him the most pleasure in reading because one learns so many beautiful lessons, from it. 8. J. like the ever willingness on the part of my boy friend to help me. He never tries to humiliate me nor any one else. He does hi's best in daily tasks at school and elsewhere. But he does not like to do anything at home. He has a tendency to borrow money when does not need it. These things I like. 9. B. One of the things I dislike about Washington Irving is cessant effort to humiliate others. Another is his utilizing the line of least resistance. 10. I got school to achieve an education which is essential to a career of usefulness to my fellowmen and humanity. I want to be of great service to qualify and fit me for useful service. 12. Yest I attained Sunday School for I am greatly benefitted so in doing that I learn to utilize the World as a field for Christian service. 13. The bad habits that tempt boys most strongly are: smoking, gambling and trying to exalt themselves and humiliating other boys. 14. I should never use tobacco nor anything with alcohol in it because I against my health. The too, both are luxuries; neither is a necessity. 15. There are many reasons why I should be grateful and obedient to my parents: First, my parents raised me, nourish me when I am sick. They furnish my needs seeking me to school thereby enabling me to get an education. With the With Community is "Honor thy father and mother that thy day may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God given ther." 16. When I grow up I want to something for all mankind I want to do Christian service and do something for my race something of which I am proud. A man of good moral character I want to live so that I can die faithfully served humanity. THE SRINE BAND IS HIGHLY COMMENDED Prof. B. F. Bowles Praises Work Being Done Along Musical Lines By Prompters At This Time. It is perhaps not as well known as it should be that among our local colored citizens are a number who have distinguished themselves in literature, science and the arts and who are able to speak the final word on their respective subjects as nearly as the final word can be spoken. Among these are 50 bowles which other things have attained distinction as a musician. He has been a life-long student of the subject in all of its branches, has taught boredom of students, including a number of professional musicians now prominently before the public; has attained distinction as a performer on a half dozen instruments, and is the author of a musical next-book, brought out by a leading New York publisher. While deterring himself largely to other interests, he takes to tape to retain his musical interests and enthusiasm. Speaking to the MUCS concerning Muske Night, held at the Coliseum, the evening of November 21, Mr. Bowles expressed himself as follows: "It was a great pleasure to me to be one of the hostesses who attended. The occasion in its purpose, as a hostess, was to perform and to the average quality of its rendition deserves the highest commendation. It is the mission of Art to set up a state of feelings and feeling leads to ideals to character and to attainment. Muske is the highest of the arts because it is the least material and the most spiritual. Property studied properly ensures that the audience remains infinite possibilities, better enforcement attends to inspiration." In nearly all communities there are one or more Heaven-enfolded and Heaven-inspired self-sacrificing individuals who are working continuously for the higher and better things. I know of no inner example than my vows-fried Prof William Blue with those who are william who receives the confidence, contentment and cooperation of the public. "I understand that Music, Night is to be hoped that all who are not so to be made an annual event; and it is for our as to be active participants will put that down on their calendar as a set of bet things not to be missed." "The Shrine Band, considering its age, is exceptional in every way, and the outlook for it is full of promise."

Stevens were also stirring and the whole program was voted a success. One of the inspiring moments of the meeting was the singing of the National Anthem by Miss Rosa Harris, a harrisian sensation before the colors. Many words of commendation of Mr. Geo. W.

KANSAS CITY COLORED MAN RUNS STRONG IN POLITICAL ELECTION KANSAS CITY COLORED MAN RUNS STRONG IN POLITICAL ELECTION Fartions Join To Defeat Candidate Berease Of Race. He Poll. 5,732. KANSAS CITY Mo. Dec. 7. This city has just finished a special election which is very significant. Some 30,000 voters went to the polls to decide on city issues, two amendments to the charter, one making to possibly add the new city charter and the other to select free holders to write the charter. November 10 of 1949 bond issues carried. Among them was an item for new Colored hospital to cost $20,000 which received the six largest vote. Colored Nominee for Commission For a long time certain forces have been trying to get a new form of city charter in order to eliminate the two council plan of government which now prevails to the depriment of Municipal progress. In the Spring a charter operation was called by the various civil organizations. A committee of 100 were formed and on it were four Negroes. Two persons were offered as candidates for the operation and among them was Ir. E. Dibble who was a representative of the Community Service Urban League. Things were going on smoothly until two weeks prior to the day of election when the political and other factions got bust. As a result new candidates were put into the field and other kickers were fused. The original group dropped their support of the qualified Colored nominee because of objection. from some of his running mates. The Post, a local, daily paper came in the rescue and fought for Dr. Dibble to the last. The branch of the N. A. A. C. P. and, other civic groups came to the front and rallied the volunteers to 21 candidates in the field. Dr. Dibble received 5,732 votes. Although $b_1$ was not elected locally, it is considered an achievement and points to a hopeful future. POSTMASTER GEN.

The history of national development. In inseparably intertwined with the development of the steel industry. In the field of war the steel industry has naturally turned to sought of steel. The those who have thought that the great men of this great industry would grown on a program of disarmament. It is most agreeable, therefore, to learn from sources of the highest formation, that its chief spokesman, Judge Elbert H. Gray, chairman of the Board of Directors of the United States Steel, Corporation, is encouraging disarmament in every particular. As president of the American Iron and Steel Institute, in semi-annual session in New York City, Judge Gary delivered an address unsurpassed in patriotic gender and sluicey. So clear are the deftices that he brings to the public, that President Harding Congress and the members of the Littleton of Armament Conference, as others in authority, may well study and obey every utterance. "The benefits which we obtain by reason of all notions living under peaceful conditions as compared with military conflicts are beyond calculation" thunders Judge Gary. The careful and palataking analysis of the high cost of living by Judge Gary, the significant warning of the absolute necessity for a real reduction in taxes, and what will follow politically if taxes are not reduced, come as the plan of a statesman and a patriot, the nothing of selfishness attributed to it, the philosophy, and it would be well for the religious reformers who have palatistically "investigated" and charged wild and unreasonable things against the steel industry in general, and Judge Gary, in particular, to sit up and take deliberate and penitent notice. Just as the steel industry is inseparable from national progress; so we, as a group cannot be separated from its achievements. The industry, in parts of the country, has given the New Yorkers, and make, in innumerable instances, reasonable annual gains. "And in the particular instance of the United Steel Corporation, millions of dollars have been spent for welfare development. Therefore, the millions of us may well join heartily in the steel master's effort lowering the great burdens of inaction in promotion of national prosperity, the lessening of the instruments of war, and the realization of permanent peace." Exevations Reveal Ancient African Greatness The full story of the discoveries by the Egyptian expedition hefted by Professor George A. Relsen of Harvard, was known recently through an announcement from the University offices. These excavations now make it possible to tell the history of Ethiopia. Twenty-six generations of Ethiopian Kings have been unearthed in their tombs, and the recovery of material buried for more than 2,000 years brought to the surface. The joint expedition which has made possible these discoveries was in charge of Professor Rehmer, who is back in Cambridge after ten years in Egypt, and it is sponsored by Harvard University and the Boston Museum of Fine-Art. The discovery of the lost civilization of Ethiopia was made at Napata, the ancient capital of that country, but now called Gebel. Barkal, Napata, the Egyptian Sudan, at the Southern end of Dongola Province, at the foot of the Fourth Ocantarct and the royal city of Dongola, of the city, one on the south of the village of El-karayu, and the other on the south at Nurl. At the latter village, on a low knoll, near the Rivar Nile, looking out of the sand caves of the desert, the Harvard-Boston archaeologists examined a group of pyramids, which proved to be the tombs of the queens of Ethiopia from 360 to 250 B. C. most of whose names had been lost to human knowledge. Excavations gradually uncovered the burial chamber of Trichura, the king of Ethiopia mentioned in the Book of Kush, who was one of the five Ethiopian kings, and when one by one were uncovered the tombs of all the other kings, queens princes and princesses of Ethiopia for a period of over four centuries, an imbalance that between the discovery of America by Columbus and the present day. After the excavations at Nurt, four of the greatest Kings of Ethiopia were still lacking—Kings, who like Tirrinah, had ruled Egypt as well as Ethiopia. In the third year of search these four kings, with their queens, and indeed six generations of their ancestors, tried at Elkuraw, on the north of Nepata. It was then discovered that the royal family of Ethiopia had sprung from a tribe of Libyan nouns who had entered the province, then a part of Egypt, about 100 B. C., had become Egyptianized, revolted from Egypt and finally, under Platyan, conquered the older country. From the sun-scoured Nile River, the ruler Egypt and 2,000 miles of the Nile River, and had seized their ambassadors to the Courts of Amryin and Western Asia. Careful study of the objects and inscriptions found in these tombs has given us the. Harvard-Boston archaeological Museum of Ethnicity, during this period and a knowledge of the condition and development of the remarkable art and crafts of the time. It is said that the material discovered at Mark's never Other creatures regard man as a friend when he does not make himself an enemy. In the Yellow Stone Park we saw the unimbued kestrel and birds deers and buffalo and bear, tolerate unmoved the presence and approach their jets and camps. But never before had we seen fames fish living in the wilds. We thought the fish moved by instinct merely and had no little brains to ever know friend from foe. When we crush a fish's head we have to search around among the creatures to find a little of it. And yet a fish has brains enough to understand our attitude towards him. The waters of Silver Lake are perfectly clear, so that we could see the fish, life, the turtles and the beautiful variety of vegetation in the subaqueous gardens, the springs and fountains and geysers, 100 feet down at the bottom. While this could be plainly seen then the still water under the glass-bottom garden, the bottom of the lake, because, the ripples destroyed injured by the refraction of the light. Add water acts like a telescopic glass, so that 100 feet down looked as if it were only ten feet or so. And there, were the fishes in every stage of development and of every variety, semitransparent, silver-colored and black fish. There were great crayfish, bathing their bodies in the water; that rushed from the great caverns at the bottom, or in the warm waters of the lake, and that grew in large geysers. There was a whole subaqueous life, quite as varied as our subarctic life, and much more beautiful in its colorings and forms. And what do these fishes think about? Perhaps they tell many tales about the terrible race of man that lives above the surface of their waters. In a fiery element which is suffocating to real fishes and perhaps they make the little fishes behave by telling them that they will simply be the "Bad Man" will get them, when they — he does not get them before that — 0, why should mortal man be proud? There are other worlds than his. CURRENT AND OTHERWISE By W. H. A. Moore. Associated Nurse Press. One can hardly think, even casually, of the South without feeling miserable mean and contemptibly unloving. For whatever way one turns in contemplation of the grey and sodden aspect of life which it presents to us, the thought sickens and disgusts. There are the prospects of insincerity, the gross presence of beautality, the blind indifference to economic life, the ignorance of legal and moral purposes and hardly an insistence of intolerable hysteria that has begun to grave at the very vills of our national existence. It is the causes growth in the spiritual impulses of the nation. It breathes a bounty some sickness and will surely hasten a fast approaching social death unless its mad course is brought to an abrush end. It has come outlines encircling depths of tragedy which no parallel of such events has ever witnessed. It confounds blood mixtures—cell, Teuton, Galilee and African—which it calls Saxon and at other, odd and irresponsible moments. Aryan—it seeks to justify the maintenance of an mature social code on the score of sustaining a blood integrity which it violates with serene and luderous indifference to its high sounding protestations of the same but I must hurry to the why of all this. I have just heard of the existence of T. S. Stribling's serial "Birthright" now appearing in the Century Magazine. Mr. Stribling is a native of Tennessee. The scenes of his story for the present are nigger in Hooker's Beet and in the "Nigger Town" in Hooker's Beet. Washers its unkempt soul in the muddy waters of the Tennessee River. "Caroling Siner, a striking byproduct of the "Niger Town" of Hooker's Beet," he writes. The presence of a bad openness had sent her pride and only offspring, Peter Siner, and blessings and high hopes off to Harvard University. Peter had concluded a successful course of study at the northern school and we find him making a somewhat dishartending return to the place of his birth as the serial begins. I beseechable are the experiences into which Peter Siner is unceremoniously and immediately plunged into the darkness of the impatient nigger" and as much must be taught his lesson quietly and quits thoroughly. But the more important fact upstanding in the early situations of the story is the clear cut setting this author has given the spiritual motif of a typical backward southern small town. Black and white alike share in the painful impatient nigger's final relief from the "doe" spirit of the nigger Peter Siner, but that is all. It is a stark borneen almost apallishing all the acrimony. Yet it is so sincerely and forth, the truth of it comes convincingly and with a hasty of respect that remains unchallenged. In the situations of that intolerable Cinder people should follow this story in its entirety. It is literally desolate in the emotional possession of life in the nurturer's move with a kindness. among the African branches of the group, Paul Dumbat. In the more shores recieves of his verse, gives us, possibly the first clear view of this spiritual quirking touching to speech and song a peculiarly lyrical and humbly fluent. With the more general thought in mind I can not refrain from thinking of the charming and soundly, beautiful someths of Cordella Ray; the all too brief and delicately refined accedules of Georgia Johnson; the aromatic diffusions of William Stanley Braithwatte; the straight forearm of James Johnson and, less impressively, the thousand and one offerings that have come under my notice during the past ten or perhaps fifteen years. I come to a phrasodical halt, however, in the presence of Claude McKay. This young Jamaican holds me fast in the embrace of a keen and clinging delight. I have before me his "Spring in New Hampshire." I find it good poetry. Not good poetry in the more conventional sense but verse sure of purpose for nearly sixty years. "Morning Jaws," "To Winter," "I Shall Return," and "The Harlem Dancer," move me deeply. Mr. Braithwatte has called attention to the appelling beauty of the last named place in another place. In my own way, though, I confess to a greater fondness for "I shall Return." Not wholly in a critical way but because it presents the more clearly to he the motive which is, fundamentally, the impelling temper of a Sonnet—the motive of love. The limitations of space, the limitations of time, the quotations at this time. I will be very glad if my readers make my word, in this instance, and believe with me that Claude McKay is one large spirit in our life and, we should love and cherish him. "Spring Time in New Hampshire" is published by Grant Richards Ltd. London, England. The night is far spent. I must go to sleep. I bid you, kind friends a food adieu. BOOK CHAT By Mary White Owington (Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) "The Upward Path," compiled by Marion T. Pritchard and Mary White Owington. Introduction by Robert E. Moton. Published by Harcourt, Brace & Howe, New York City. Price $1.35. Postage, eight cents. We are beginning to look about and decide what we shall get for the children at Christmas. If they like books I believe there is nothing they will enjoy more than "The Upward Path." The compilers of this book brought stories, and biographies, bites of food, old fashioned poems, pencils and folk tales, and last of all charming illustrations, all by colored people. Here in this single volume is a record of Negro literary achievement. And while the book is for children who likes to read will be entertained by it. "I have received the Upward Path" a friend said to me the other day, "and have finished the first story we ever I confess I cried. This opening piece and the lagoonet" is the gem among the short stories but it has many good seconds. There is a football tale by Walter P. White, entitled "Victory"; two school-day stories by Lillian B. Witten, and one of the most charming Grimke's "land of Laughter" today. Angelina Grimke's "land of Laughter" from her boy, "Rachel." We all like to read of the brave deeds of other men, and the colored child must feel a peculiar thrill when he or she learns of the great colored soldiers and explorers. As Matthew Heison Journeys with Peary to the North Pole, we learn that they took no measurement of distance over which they came. "With my proven ability in guaging distances, Commander Peary was ready to take the reckoning as I made it and he did not resort to solar observations until we were away. And what a wonderful thing to have the black man and the white man together at the spot where the American flag first was set marking the location of the North Pole." One of the great African explorers of our time is the Rev. William Henry Sheppard. He Sheppard went to Africa as a missionary from the Presbyterian Church and was instrumental in exposing the Congo atrocities. For this he gained the displeasure of the Belgian government and came near to being arrested by the Congo authorities in the Congo was prized by the Presbyterian Missionary Society and might have been lost to the masses of colored readers had it not been for the "Upward Path" where his wonderful description of the Kingdom of Lukenga is now given prominence. One learns that in this forbidden land of Lukenga, guarded against outside influence, there was a kindly, intelligent government that encouraged handwriting, cleanliness and moral living. Mr. Sheppard was a kindly, intelligent African in the "Upward Path" and gives us a good idea of what the traveler may expect who goes into equatorial Africa. Among the biographies is a sketch of Bodiljamn Raaeker and another of Paul Cuffe; the first admired President, Jefferson; the second a friend of President Madison. "There were giants in those days," and it is good to read of those early figures in American history. The book abounds in good poetry suitable for recitation at public meetings. There is a little poem by Cordella Bar of the Month, which would make a pretty recitation for twelve children; each continued to represent a month and each reciting her verse. The book has one delightful bit of Dary. "Travels with a Georgia Mule" by James Welton Johnston, whose son was a slave. "Ditty Era" and "Black and Unknown Barls" are also in the book. But you must handle "The Upward Path" to appreciate it, and to see the compelling illustrations by Laura Warner that make this collection a baird and a boy's child. Again, the theme is for Christmas.

ACIDS IN STOMACH CAUSE INDIGESTION Create Gas, Sources, and Pain How To Treat Medical authorities state that nearly nineteenth of the cases of stomach trouble, indigestion, sourness, burning gas, blowing, nausea, etc. are due to an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach and not as some believe to a lack of digestive juices. The delicate intestines are dehydrated and food norms, causing the disagreeable symptoms which every stoichi sufferer knows so well. Artificial digestives are not needed in such eases and may do real harm. Try laying inside all digestive aids and instead get from any drugstret a few quinces of Biurated Magnesium and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This sweetens the stomach, prevents the formation of excess acid, and there is no sources, or tablets, in the form of power or tablet form—never liquid or milky is harmless to the stomach, inexpensive to take and is the most efficient form of magnesium for stomach purposes. It is used by thousands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigestion. BIG DEMAND FOR ALL MAMIE SMITH RECORDS The Associated Negro Press NEW YORK, NOV. 30 - The famous photographer recently recorded "Sax-o-phony Blues" in the laboratories of the General Phonograph Company, New York, who manufacture the popular Okeh Records. It has been one of the greatest sentiments in phonograph history dom. The Okeh factories have been kept busy mushing her records and it has been almost impossible to turn our records fast enough to supply the tremendous demand from all parts of the country. Not since "Crazy Blue Blues" in 1930 has a sound like hit so strikingly as "Sax-o-phony Blues." It is a song which leads itself to her personality and which records perfectly on the phonograph. "I can tell a song hit when I first hear it," said Mamie Smith in a recent interview in New York. "When I listen to a song I am always thinking about it. I hear hundreds of songs a month, but only a few of them are of the sort which make good phonograph records. When I first heard "Sax-o-phony Blues," it was at the end of a long hard day of recording in the Okeh Laboratory in New York. "I went into a little restaurant in 49th street where a small orchard of instrumental and song numbers, which were received with little enthusiasm by the diners at the cafe. "Then, just as I was drinking my coffee, the orchestra struck up "Saxophony Blues," and I stopped to listen. They had not played the bars of the music before I knew that here was a real hit for the phonograph. I questioned the orchestra leader and he stated that the song was just being published, but that he had a manuscript copy. I asked the musician, under my aegis, and before noon the next day I got in touch with the composer. Milo Rega, and made arrangements for the recording rights and then made a reward of this new blues in the same week in the Okeb Laboratory." This is the story of the discovery and recording of the "Sax-o-phony Blues," and furnishes a little insight as to the methods adopted by popular phonograph stars to secure real popular hits for their records. Smith is now on a tour in the United States with her own Jazz Revie and is playing to packed houses. Her tour is under the management of the Standard Amusement Company, New York, who report that interest in this popular star is over greater than it was last year.

CENTRAL BAPTIST LANE-TABERNACLE The blood is, always shed at a sacrifice, and that wherever the sign of blood is, seen, right there a sacrifice has been made, was the interesting part of an irresistible sermon delivered by Rev. N. L. Smith last Sunday morning. Mrs. Georgia Long had filled every ones heart with love and happiness by singing a sweet and appalling solo just before the sermon. There was every fascinating voice that never fails to cheer the heart strings. Th. voice of the congregation is calling and she must sing often. Blood and the cross was the thesis of Rev Smith's message, Sunday morning. He pointed to the Supreme sacrifices made on Calvary. No one had ever given blood for so great a cause he said and no one had ever borne a cross. It was an interesting picture that was by the speaker to the congregation that could see the sadness, intense darkness and cruelty of the crucifixion. There are those who get happy and shout in Lane Tabernacle and there are those who shed tears of great joy. But, there are none who fail to enjoy the sweetness of a message such as was heard last Sunday morning. Mr. John Carter spoke of the hyman brotherhood which was organized by the pastor to another. The brotherhood tends a welcome to strangers and one does not need to be a member of Lane Tabernacle to join. Serruga Progressive Bazaar That there is very much activity in the Serruga Progressive Camp, was evidenced last Monday and Tuesday nights when Mrs. W. F. Mason, the president and her following pitched their traits on the second floor of the Sunday School department and spread their wares before the people. Most things in the line of hardware, jewelry, clothing and several things that and beauty in the home, could be had at this THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, DEC. 9, 1921 Ushers Board, trustee auxiliary, good samaritan club, and steward board are the others. Wednesday evening the Steward Board will banquet the business league. Everybody welcome. MT. AIBY BAPTIST The services at the Mount Airy Baptist Church were excellent Sunday, that being communion day. Sunday school was grund. On account of the inclementy of the weather all were not present, yet the lesson was well discussed and a great deal of benefit was derived from it. At the close of Sunday school 11 o'clock services were opened by Deacon Brown and Rivers. We all enjoyed a great praise service and the pastor read for the opening lesson Proverbs 4th Chapter, and commented on some practical things. In his commenting he took us around the world of fashion and in taking us around he usured that we would have to come back later. We had a great thought advanced late of the effort was a showing in their true light of all the new styles of religion and a comparison which shows us that we must come back to the old time religion to be saved, and that we must come out of the new Gods which we serve and that we would have to come back and serve the God that created us to be saved for He is the only God. We enjoyed the illustration of the text taken from 11 Proverbs "Ponder the Path of The Fool." A pitch explanation was given of the fact that many good things were brought out of the holy land made to power the powers of the Holy Spirit to learn what the meaning of the path was. It was a sermon-with power; it filled the congregation with new inspiration. At night he came forward with another soul attiring message from the 11th Chapter of Matthew, text: "Learn of me many good things," was brought to him by the Lord's supper, Rev. P. R. Roster, pastor; Mrs. Estelle, reporter. MINISERS MISSIONARY UNION Ministers Missionary, Union meet with Magdalene M. B. Church, 3430 Market street with Rev. W. F.

Williams which was due to the fact she was injured by falling Saturday. The union hopes for her body recovery. We were glad to see our church to be stuck after a few weeks stay in Church and to be with his very sick brother, who passed away. We extend our heartfelt sympathy in his sad hour. The sisters were pleased to have Sister Lula Alexander one of the district workers who made a good and wholesome talk that encouraged us very much. *** Rev. S. F.

FITZWATER, D. P. Teacher of English P. B. in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) Copyright, 1982, Western Newspaper Union. LESSON FOR DECEMBER 11 PAUL WRITES TO A FRIEND LESSON TEXT—Philomene **LESSON TITLE-Philipson.** Girl, Girl. Whoosher would be chief among you, let him be your servant.- Matt. 20:27. **REFERENCE MATERIAL-Deut. 15:12; I Cor. 1:56; Col. 2:9-11; Jan. 19; 21-9. **PRIMARY TOPIC-The story of a Runaway Slavery.** **PRIMARY TOPIC-Paul's Kindness to a Runaway Slavery.** INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC -Paul, Fleming. For A. Slave. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC -The Social Teachings of the Letter to Phlemon. This is a private letter. Phlemon was a member of the church at Colosseo. Onesimus, his slave, wronged him, perhaps stole from him, and fled to Rome. There he came under Paul's influence and was converted. Paul sent Onesimus back to Phlemon with this letter. This is one of the most tender and beautiful letters ever written, and the first anti-slavery petition ever penned. 1. The Salutation (yy. 1-3). His alm was to touch Philemon's heart, so refers to himself as a prisoner, and links Philemon to himself as a fellow-laborer in the Gospel of truth. He makes mention of Apphila, Philemon's wife, and Archipus, the son, who had already enlisted as a fellow-soldier. II. Philemon's Reputation (vv. 4-7). Paul paid a fine tribute to Philemon, reminding him that he never prayed without bearing him up before God. This is a fine example of tuct on the part of the minister. 1. His faith and love toward the Lord and all saints (v. 5). It was his hope and desire that this faith might bear fruit in Christ Jesus. 2. His ministry to the saints (v. 7). Philemon was generous in his help to the poor saints. III. Paul's Request (vv. 8-16). He requested Philemon to receive back Onusimus, the rundway slave, as a brother in Christ. 1. He baccheces instead of commands (v. 8-10). Though conscious of his right to enjoin, he pleads, as the prisoner of Jesus Christ for love's sake. 2. He makes his plea on the grounds of grace (v. 11-14). He admitted that Onesimus had been unprofitable—had forfeited all claim upon Philomel, and that on grounds of justice his plea might well be rejected, and yet Onesimus was begotten in his bonds (v. 10)—was in a real sense a part of his own suffering nature (v. 12)—he ventured to suggest that he should be accepted. Though Onesimus hitherto had been unprofitable to his master, now was profitable to both Paul and Philomel. Paul would gladly have retained him as a personal attendant, but sought first his friend's permission. 3. Paul desired that Onealmus be received back not as a slave, but as a brother in Christ (vv. 15, 10). Here is the real fugitive slave law. Paul never attacked slavery, though it was contrary to Christianity, and therefore hateful to him, but emphasized principles which destroyed it. The establishment of Christianity changes the whole face of human society. The wise thing to do is to get men and women regenerated and thus transform society instead of seeking change by revolution. In Paul's request you can hear, the pleadings of Christ for us sinners. All men have broken loose—gone astray—and have become unprofitable. We are reconciled to God through the interceding of Christ. He has made us profitable. We have been begotten in His bonds—through His passion, agony of heart, we shall be changed. 11. The Basis Upon Which Onealmus is to Be Received (vv. 17-21). The debt of guilty Oneimus is to be put to the account of Paul, and the merit of Paul is to be put to the account of Oneimus. This is a fine illustration of the atonement of Christ. Whatever wrongs we have committed—debt incurred—all our shortcomings are debited to Him. Jesus Christ, on behalf of the whole universe, has said to God: "Put that to my account; I have written with my pierced hand; I will repay." Oneimus was taken back, not as a runaway slave, but a beloved brother in Christ. IV. Paul Requests Lodging (vv. 22-25). He expected a speedy release from imprisonment, and purposed to sojourn with Philemon. In all probability this was realized. What a welcome he must have received! Jesus Christ is saying to every one of His redeemed ones, "Prepare me, a lodging." The Lord Changeth Not. And I will come near to you to judgment; I will be a swift witness against false sweaewes, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fends not me,审到 the Lord of hosts. For I am the Lord, I change not—Malachi 3: 5, 9. Prophecy as to Schedularer. Now the spirit speaketh sigremely that in his latter times such shall be part from the faith—I Theodore 6: 16.

Nov. 20, -Miss Mamie Smith opened up here at the City Auditorium and really brought a clean and classy show. Baby Back Mack and Tommy Parker opened with a sailor act. It was clean and the dialogue was different from the other visitors. He was excellent. He is the first artist seen here to get muscle out of a violin by simply beating it. He took two encourses and two hows. Mack and Parker opened the second part with an act in which he does a sturting stunt that set the house wild. Baby Mack was attired as a soubrette the act was created roles of laughter with his suggestion, not even a shimmy.

In Subsequent Issuess the Following Subjects Will Be Discussed: "Why Colored Baseball Owners and Vangagers Have Been A Failure," "Colored Baseball Players A I Know Them," and "Colored, Umpires." PAGETWELVE By Andrew This article to one not familiar with baseball would be a difficult proposition to understand but to one who has followed baseball for twenty-four years, it is no surprise that over the years and downs of a career it is not hard for me to tell things necessary for permanent success. I am going to contribute four articles, the second one, "Why Colored Baseball Owners and Managers Have Been a Failure," third, "Colored Baseball Players as I Know Them," and has colored Umpires, articles that may be manly that may disagree, who some of the things I may say yet much weight must be given to what I say as I have dealt, practically, with the subject longer, made a greater success, and have been the only man of color to continue continuously in the game for such a length of time. It would really be unfair to tell you not only that I have followed baseball really needs unless I gave you a swaps of what colored baseball has had. What Colored Baseball Has Had Colored baseball has had many ups and downs. There have been two great causes for this. First, the National game was put in disarray by the warpiness of heading colored people all over the country, who believed colored baseball was a game to be patronized only by the sport element and not fit for their girls and boys to see. The calibre, of players, the training they receive, the skill they have seen the time when no respectable people would think of inviting a baseball player to their home. I am under their conditions. I made baseball a profession later a business yet my association has been such that I have wiped away much of that prejudice, so much so that I know of no man who have felt it as much an honour to meet me as I have felt it an honour to meet them, from the most prestigious men in the churches, our greatest educators and college professors have been my staunch friend. Their homes are as just for me to invade as my home is for them to invade. Colored baseball is more than a sport. They need it in their home town can gain it, the confidence of all the people, when whatever is good in the worst element and have the power to draw that good out of them, making them useful to the rest of our race. There was a time in my memory when a deposition as large as the Baptist minister in its publicist nor allow Christian Baptist to take Sacrament in a Methodist church: such, we the teachings of our leading colored attests at that time. Time has brought about yawning changes, education has done the rest until now we see the Baptist and Methodist commending to gather Baptist and Methodist ministers visiting and exchanging publics and telling as this is the right way. The more education we became, the more we fall into the realm of the other kind: individual nations; we now saw things from an angel's perspective; we now know that there is not a depositional school that does not teach the students the value of athletics and baseball as they included in all the colleges. We came into this after all of the white colleges, white churches and white social settlements played baseball and other athletics upon their curricula. Broadball among our people has been properly encouraged by ball players who have come our under said conditions have not had much success which in be related this is as far as encouragement from our leading citizens is concerned. They believed the better class of people thought them inferior which motivated their conduct in this capacity more to live up to the standard set up by public contempt than by their own confidence have as much faith with this condition as the ball players themselves. What we need is a set of men in each city to form a stock company along the following lines. Ten men at up, thousand dollars each which would amount to ten thousand dollars they could get a franchise in the league and operate a club; in this way any such set of influential men in any city would be able to realize at the lowest possible estimate more, than ten per cent of money at investment. This amount of money at investment in St. Louis, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Jacksonville, Kansas City would help conditions at these places. course. This was demonstrated by the forestlight on the mountaintop- estitute. I had made myself laborious. I will give you an insight of the hardiness ability of the men with whom I have been associated. After we drew up an agreement for organizing the League and worked under it for two years we had reached a financial success that no one expected for at least ten years; while making a plenty of money this system was a great help to the necessity for brain and experience to take a blindness over that was fastly sinking. The industrial situation which effected the entire world likewise hit baseball; those men could not no excuse for some after than the system was wrong. They went so far as to say that Fisher is, President and is the cause of it all; we have to be governed by him. He stays at Chicago all the time and makes us come there to the present. No 'logical man would make such a statement knowing the condition under which we agreed to work. We have nine clubs and only three jerks, Jake St. Louis and Chicago where it is possible to play at all times. We operated and used three jerks of the American Association; these parks were only available when the home clubs were not using them. We have two road clubs, The Urban Stars and Chicago Giants. It was necessary for them to play on the Sunday. Sunday was the only day where it was possible to put three clubs in three jerks and play in equal amount of games. In the Association parks we were under agreement to use them on all open dates the home club was not to the City. This made it necessary to make these rules in order to live up to a contractual obligation to make unnecessary jerks and some clubs playing more games than other clubs then allowed that only fifteen games. Then the League would be committed in the percentage column as League games other games beyond that number would be counted as exhibition games. We were compelled to play exhibition games in order to keep the clubs going. This was a wonderful thing for two years everybody made amply. Then came the industrial depression and Poster was to blame for that, we was responsible for the annual depression all over the world. A child would not play the jerks then. We made conditions that we worked under previously were the same conditions under which we worked this past season no changes during the entire season. American Giants Narrifer Without a League the American Giants were a huge, financial success; they would soon be a greater success than they were before. I felt it was a duty I owed my people to advance along the same lines of other baseball clubs, although I realized it would be at a moment's posse. I must to change the percentage for the League clubs and where. I was paying five hundred dollars for clubs that played equally as well as those clubs. I paid in pay them from one thousand to eighteen hundred dollars. On top of this I reduced the percentage of the American Giants away from home job to twenty percent, because what they were originally getting from the parks they played in from five per cent. The park clubs itself system were paying less percentage than they did when they operated along and were drawing those clubs the people that they formerly drew. In two businesses I reduced a contract price per cent where they had got contracted, for the parks for us. That meant that we would be paying them what we wanted to do reduced the percentage as they knew that any plans we fostered that they would receive much more money on a cheaper percentage. At the beginning of no sensory can we start to the business unless I start the season test and send dollars in debt. This amount of expense we carry in excess of salary in the league besides owning the hats, license, insurance and operating expenses of a plant as large as the American Giants Park should it burn down, we would pay a pretty thousand dollars for the measured loss of our own. With this among of other expense we haven't a single club that can go out of business today and loser, more than they had advanced the ball players and uniform they used this year. THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, DEC. 9, 1921 playing strength. Yet handcapped and I am I dare the star players of the country to the other clubs and then have been able to run through their clubs like salt. This does not speak well for their ability as baseball men. People don't criticize me for any other reason that they don't understand, and from ignorance all over the circuit many of them have agreed with their spectators that Foster was the best player in the league. If anyone one man so much power. In many instances this is yet true in many cases power sometimes brings the best there, is in a man out and makes him one hundred times more transmissible than he would be under opposite conditions. The men you hear criticise me must have some alibi yet they admit that contact is a great asset. They did not find that too powerful, but they did not find that too powerful must be by contact they know that they had learned to my regret that they were useless. **Baseball's Greatest Needless** All men who are possessed with positions of trust must always have a cabinet or some advisory board to whom they may go for advice; I cannot say this for the men with whom I have been associated. When consulted their advice is always "Do a you see fit because you know best." I want to be relieved of this responsibility. If any set of men in any city can raise ten thousand dollars I will be willing to come to their city, arrange for them to be furnished to formulate and effect an organization and let them be responsible for the running of their own clubs and not let same rest upon my shoulders. These clubs will be bad and surely with, boosted talent and finance, and the ability to 'listen to' a straightforward business proposition with no such thing as losing money and at the same time help to raise the Negro from the thought of being a thing of sympathy, crying that the world be against him, and not allowing them to be conditions, many cities will be able to boost of a real baseball club. I only wish first class men to communicate with me. I am willing to take the time to come to the place to effect an organization. I have reached, a conclusion that our men cannot peacefully go along in individual club owners; they can be made, however, to go along without them. Let me bear from you. 3242 Vernon avenue, Chicago, Illinois. RESULTS OF LEAGUE GAMES AT THE Y. M. C. A. All leagues of the "Y" get off an off schedule last week. There will be a regular league, game every Friday and Saturday night during the season. Indoor baseball on Friday and basketball on Saturday nights. You and your friends are cordially invited to attend these games. Admiration free. Volley Ball The Old Men kicked the Spartah Braves in the first volley ball game of the schedule. The shooting and return of shots by the Old Men completely bewildered the Spartans. It was no doubt in the minds of the spectators to be misguided the winner. The next game will be: Friday noon between the Young Men and the freakshows. **Indoor Baseball** Scullins beat the Black Swan in what turned out to be a very exciting and close game. It was not until the last time that the winner was determined, what second threw what second to be hopeless defeat into victory. Scullins are the most credit for their uphill fight, although some of the joy of winning was lost as the Black Swans were forced to play without the survey of three of their year players. The Commonwealth game was due to cross bats next Friday night. **Basket Ball** In the Junior League the Wild Cats won the loss and defeated the North basket, the Buffalo's shooting for the South. The Buffaloes find the game all to themselves during the first half and looked like a sure winner. Something happened during the five minutes rest and the Wild Cats came back and shot to six victory. The next game in the Junior League will be played by the Panthers and the Cubs. In th. Senior division the Bottons Gang, with it's well equipped machine, spanked the Tribune Five to the time of 22 to 8. The game was well played and was a much better game than the score indicate. The Bottons Gang superior handling of the ball and the shoot under cover was largely responsible for the lopsided score. The game next Saturday night will be between the Tigers and the Black Swan. All games in the senior division start at 9 p.m. sharp. Miss Win in November In the Junior Triangle Club of the Bors' Division of the Pin, Street Y, M. O. A., the blues nosed out the victory for the month of November by 30 points. That is to say that the boy after Bidler and Cainah Harry Lewis to pick up point for prompt attendance at Bible, educational and physical classes and excellence in departmental games (gym and swim) and fellowship and activity in society in others succeeded in defeating bit month's victors, the Red, under Manager Eichhorn Harvey and Captain Week of the month. The bit month was Bidler The Rock Hare, White Widfellow and awarded a gold and silver star and a four-year award for excellence in the gym club. An award in honour of the Red, the Black Swan and the Cubs. Echoes Of Pres. Harding's Speech Echoes Of Pres. Harding's Speech Continued From Page Seven comes at a time when silence is no longer endured and upon a subject who will be incarcerated for. Twywer better that he be retained in Washington, D.C., where he is a form of an Americanism. The colored man has suffered enough from the so called friends of the Republican party (?) Why does the President of the United States adversely social equality as cause to the black man when 8 millions of the white man's amalgamated sons and daughters make up one-eighth the population of the world, the woman was good enough to give birth to their children she ought to be good enough to marry them. Why did the Supreme Court uphold junior laws of the South? Was that social equality? Why do departments at Washington discriminate and segregate the colored employees? Is that social equality? Why do the issue? Why do the tilt-white Republican bar colored men and women? Is that social equality? Why doesnt President Harding employ colored men to positions they have held since 1855? Is that social equality? Toughness of our sons lay asleep upon the torn bosom of France who died for this country. If justice that you portray as a barrier to the social life of our race. We will stand ready to defend our society whose we are ever happy. We want equality that is given every other citizen under the Constitution. We will accept nothing less. The President has spoken. Let the historian write: "Failed." No Sharp-Line Between Politics and Social Life. (From the New Republic, New York) The South's known as President Harding ought to know, that you can't draw a sharp line between politics and social life. The office of a state are in main parts of America positions of social leadership. With complete political equality the state of Mississippi might easily over a Negro as governor. Would such a result be accepted by Mississippi as an objective social signal? The answer is not one that admits of easy general solutions. ther to suggest that while the President says that the colored man should have political and economic equality it would be impossible to have either if he were regarded as a social inferior. Again the President says, "Racial amalgamation there cannot be." Evidently Mr. Harding did not have on his glasses when this statement was made, because he could have been plenty of it in his audience. And it might not be too harsh to say that the white man has been enjoying the social equality at night which he objects to us having during the day. In fact during the Presidential campaign, it was rumored that Mr. Harding himself was a product of a racial amalgamation. Quoting another passage of the President's discourse: "The one thing we must soberly avoid, is the development of group organizations in this country. We have heard too much about the Irish vote, the Scandinavian vote, the Italian vote, and so on. The local of our ancestors and Auxilians should rise superior to every appeal." But why, when it comes to the coloured man does the President say "We must have complete divergence racially and racially"? Complete divergence socially and culturally may narrow ears, jimmy schools and segregated cities. Experience has taught us that the jimmy schools mean poorly equipped and inefficient schools and segregated districts are always underrated and neglected districts. How could the idea of unease as American citizen prevail if we insist on complete divergence socially and racially? In reference to the right of from above the President says, "Let the black man vote when he is fit to vote, prefift the white man from voting when he is unfit to vote." "Who is to be the judge of the black man's fitness to vote? In nearly every South African, the colorado man prefift the colored man's fitness to vote? and that is the reason for his dischancement today. And finally, the President admired us not to imitate the American white man. We quite agree that the colored man should not imitate the American white man in his kneeling and bernings at the stake and his other notions practices. But we do believe that if [there is any good in the American white man, the Jap the Englishman, Hindu the Indian, the French should imitate that good. Civilization has only progressed in that way. We should therefore not strive to be as the President suggests, the best possible black man, or the best possible white man, but we should strive to be the best possible MAN. Great Danger in Things Sold. (Quincy W. Johnson in New York If the things which Mr. Harding demanded for the colored man can be achieved in the South and in the United States, while at the same time the race, either voluntarily or involuntarily is solidified into a completely segregate and distinct element in the nation, an element considered either two different of too inferior for common human association with the rest, it will entail the working of a miracle, such a thing has not come to pass in the whole history of the human race. nature differentiated by their wwfpw it some that in developing his speech President Harding inadvertently遮掩 the illogic of such a position. Following the very paragraph in which he stresses the permanence and eternal difference between the races, which must be fostered, he makes the following statement: "The one thing we must maintain avoid is the development of groups and class distinguished MFWYPWF and their organizations in this country. There has been a time when we worked too much about the labor vote, the business vote, the Irish vote the曼廷利亚 vote. On Italian vote, and so on. But the demagogues who would array class against class and group against group have fortunately. That is because we reward their efforts. That is because we reward our enemies. The bless of our enemies. Americans have risen superior to every animal to mere class and group." "We hope the net result of the President's speech will be good, but THERE IS GREAT DANGER IN BOME THINGS HE SAID. "Most Dangerous Doctrines Ever Uttersal." Dr. W. A. Sinclair in Guardian) The speech delivered by President Harding in *Birmingham, Ala.*, be fought with the most dangerous, perilous, destructive and hell-born conditions that have ever been uttered in fifty years, of our development not only by a President of the United States but by any responsible calamity minister. The colored race cannot afford to ignore attentions, impu- tions, great harm and already de- nise and incalculable injury to our race will certainly follow. It's shameful exploitation. Pity. The White House has lowered its greetings and dignity. Condemns President's Conception of American Citizenship. From the Africa American Baltimore President Harding's Birmingham speech is being criticised, by colored people because it trommels, the colored race too little and by the white people because it promises too much. The ten thousand colored people who listened to the President's appeal for political and educational equality for them, cheered because they know that their own state 'distrancates' them and jobs them off millions of dollars in school funds. His twenty thousand white hearers were correspondingly silent. On the other hand President Harding 'subscribed to the white South's view of "social equality," which means informarriage laws, Jimmyrow arrests and railways, no political shows for colored people and discriminatory every point between the black and white communities in a liberal compartment the President would find a separate office for the hundred colored Southmen in Baltimore, regardless of race. thunder "Race amalgamation," there cannot be "and close his eyes to millions of indicttees in this country who represent thist lust of the white race. We are ardently believe with the President that colored people should divide their voice, but we should have preferred to hear him say so before his election rather than after it. The After-American admirers the President's courage, believes in his affection, admires his conception of American citizenship, his ignorance of the history of civilization and his bad taste. Complete Surrender to Lily-White (From the Independent, Atlanta, Ga.) "I will not appoint any colored man to office in the South. Sink or swim, survive or perish, live or die, I shall stand by this position." I think in keeping with his great utterances of political equality at Birmingham. On the contrary does it not contradict that policy? The President has made a complete curricular to the Bly-whites who have moved heaven and earth to eliminate the Negra from party councils. He has placed the leadership in the hands of such men as Bassom Slemp of Virginia. Colorel men were driven out of the Republican convention by order of Slemp. On July 25, C. B. Miller, Joe Keeling and Howard were delegated to come to the convention to move the national committee and put a new committee in charge because the President said there must be white leadership without regard to regularity, and the rules of the party. We again ask, does this comport with the President's demand for political equality as advocated at Birmingham? We submit this to the deliberate judgment of mankind and ask a verdict. What right has the President or any other official, speaking in his official capacity to give advice and to fix issues and bounds within which a certain group of American citizens must strive and aspire? The race in its struggle upward is not in need of barriers, but of unlimited vision, of room for expansion, of a friendly atmosphere in which to act, without restricting. limitations arbitrarily set by the flat of unjust discrimination. Nor does the race stand in need of so much advice graftlessly given. We had expected the President to suggest that the colored man strive to be the best citizen of American citizenship. Why should he strive to be the "best possible black man"? Why should the worth of American citizenship be limited by racial lines or the color of a man's skin? The President wants the colored group to sated apart, pursuing its own ineligible frivolities, preserving its own racial purity and race pride. The suggestions amount to having a nation within a nation. This is not only impossible, but undesirable and the President in advocating such an anonymous position has played himself in a very embarrassing attitude: to lay the least. The colored group wishes to enjoy every right, every privilege and every humanity that belongs to American citizenship. President Harding and the Colored American. $^2$From the Boston Guardian) In regard to President Harding's speech at Rimingham, Aka., we would say to this Republican President that persons of color born in the United States of America, most of whose parents ad grandparents and great grandparents were born in the B. S. A., see no reason why they should be expected to be willing to be simply black people and not fully and wholly Americans, any more than Jews born here, are expected to be willing to be simply Jews. Irish simply Irish. Italians simply Italians, and so on with the many race varieties here. The President In The South (St. Paul Appeal) The President eroneously confounds "social equality" with malagamation. He says that malagamation cannot be, but it exists, it has always existed and always will exist. The combined effort of the law and public opinion have failed to prevent the mixing of the races. Through the ages there has been so much racial mixing that today the scientists and ethnologists agree that there is no such thing as a pure race. An no other country on the globe has there been more racial mixing than in the United States which the greater part of the population is the melting pot of the world. The majority of the people of the United States are mixtures of various races and composed of people with more or less Negro blood. The racial mixing in the South is almost wholly illegitimate as the laws make marriage between the races a crime. "one-thing we must most seriously people Mr. Hardling tells us that the avoid is the development of groups and class organization in this country." He argued against the very thing which he has previously argued for. There are just as many differences between the individuals of any one race as there are between the people of any number of races. The idea of race differentiation in any form in the law, in the functions of the government, and in public association is contrary to a just concept of a democracy in which all men are presumed to be equal, and is repugnant to the higher ideals of the Christian's God, who is declared to have made one blood all nations of men. If Mr. Hardling is right, God is wrong. Color differentiation means the ascendancy of one caste and the degradation of the other. Social equality does not necessarily mean amalgamation. That should be a matter for individuals to determine. During the disarmament parley, the Japanese will be treated with the greatest social consideration. They will be wined and dined and received at every social function, meeting people - who in their hearts hold battered toward them, and in spite of all the social mingling it is safe to say that not a single marriage will result. In a democracy like ours, all men, whether they are black or white, red, yellow or brown, should meet in all human relationships without racial differentifications - simply as AMERICANS. No Mode Blind Allegiance to the Republican Party (From the Star, Newport News, Va.) The President may be assured that he will never live to see the colored man pay the same blind allegiance to the Republican party which has marked his conduct in the past. Like other groups in this country, the colored man's support will go to the party which offers the nearest approach to the giving of the race the same rights and privileges extended to other citizens of the country.

Captain Johnson of Fisk won the tide and, in the kick while Captain Hayles of Morehouse chose to defend the north goal.

Bird line, and making the first down, kicked to Morehouse's 35 yard line. With the ball on her own 40 yard line, Morehouse started down the field which was only hatted on Fisk's 25 yard line. Here on a delayed pass with no one between him and the goal, Starr, Morehouse left end, slipped and fell in the mud for a loss and the ball went over on the fourth down. After this both teams began to play a kicking game—taking no chances on the fourth down and usually kicking on the third. Morehouse had the edge in the kicking duel between Gayles and Johnson. The Referee's whistle brought the game to a close with the ball in Move-house's possession and the Fisk team fighting valiantly to stare off another touchdown.
