STRONG PLEA IS MADE Race Men Denied Hearing But They Present Their Grievances In Writing. Dr. T. J. Moppins Of St. Louis Takes Active Part. Special to the Argus MAHUNYA C. Dec. 21. The Second Colored World Democracy Congress, which closed a full week of preliminary and formal session at the call of the National Equal Rights League, Rev. M. A. N. Shaw, president, in the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church 14th and Corcoran Streets, if it accomplished nothing more, has made a copious public effort to have the kind of color equality considered by the World Disarmament Conference. Every day this week but Friday one or more of the Washington datties have carried an article about the Congress arguments and facts before the World Arm Parley as to why they should consider the abolition of color matte painting where in its program of world peace. It is the consensus of opinion here among the Colored people that the written request handed to the Secretary-General of the Arms Conference at is offices in the U. S. Navy Building on Monday, the written appeal to the U. S. delegation of the color issue to the Senator at his home on Wednesday, the Senator at his residence were a credit to the intellect and mauship of the race, for excerpts of these came out in the daily press. The Committee on petition for color quality consulting first and last of Wm. Monroe Trotter of Massachusetts, Rev. T. J. Mopkins, Mo. E. T. Morris, Mass. Rev. Beverly Sankas, Rev. B. Brodick, Rev. R.

A. N. Shaw was a speaker at the Secretary of the American delegation at the Disarmament headquarters. On Friday afternoon a part of the Committee called in a body at the headquarters of the French delegation in the Aristocratic New Willard Hotel with a petition for audience before them in the interest of a hearing before the Parley, and at the headquarters of the British delegation in the Franklin Hotel (Franklin Square) with a petition which they left with the parley. Just as conspicuous public work was carried on with the U. S. government on the Lynch question, Rev. T. J. Moppins, Mo., was delegated as a personal agent of the Democracy Congress of the National Equal Rights League to work with Congressman Dyer for the passage of Anti-Lynch Bill. The Democracy Congress trapped a strong petition, quoted largely in the Washington St. for the bill and sent cupboard over 100 members of the House. Whereupon Mr. Dyer was on hand, as that delegates might be, their congressmen, at the Capitol where delegates Trottier, Rev. E. A. Abbott, N. Y., and Rev. Hollins, C. S. had a long audience with Floor Leader Mordiald. On this anti-lynch committee under Rev. Moppins, as chairman were Dr. Julia P. Coleman, D. C. secretary, Rev. Thomas, C. R. Rev. J. Lecyne Lov, N. C. and Rev. L. Lewy, C. C. With the on record public through the white press as a making a streumous effort to induce the Arus Parley to consider World-wide prescription, the delegates secured the promise of Senator Lodge to formerly present the excess Memorial adopted by the Democracy Congress.

VOTE FOR BEST MAN IS MILLER'S ADVICE President of Police Commissioners Delivers Address at Lane Tabernacle C. M. E. Churca. A nice audience greeted Vivior J. Miller, president of the Police Commissions, at Lane, Tabernacle Thursday. Mr. Miller, during his brief address scored the "ward headers" and warned his hearers against listening to the promises of those who have not kept the faith. "The sooner you quit listening to those who have deceived you the better of you will be," said Mr. Miller. "Don't deliver until the promises are fulfilled. You can be of great service to yourself and to your city with your vote. Vote for the best city in the country." Don't vote for crooks. Don't let them fool you but once. "They are fighting the governor because he is trying to do the right thing by all the people. Stand by the governor as all good citizens should do. When we put on colored uniform police we were civilized and were told that the police are red-beds are making good. We been on their beats and I find them there, and not in some soft drink polite, "munching drinks or lunches." "I realize that the police department is not perfect. Its a pretty big job to keep 1800 church members straight, you will naturally have a few bad ones. But we have the best in training. But we have to you tonight to assure you of the police department and the good citizens. But the cops must go regardless of whom it hurts." The greatest amusement I get out of this job is the criticism from the newspapers telling me how to run the police department, when I am on the job hours each day. Its like reading The Times other speakers were J. E. Mitchell editor St. Louis Argus and Prof. R. H. Cole. Dr. N. L. Smith the pastor acted as master of ceremonies. The Associated Negro Press NEW YORK - Dec. 21. Careful investigation by the Associated Negro Press discloses the fact that factors in the white vote of Negro democrat party during the fall election, the failure of the Republican National Administration to come up to expectations in the matter of racial recognition, and the statement of Presidents of the Negro race divide their votes. "We took the President at his word and acted," said one life-long Republican. This wholesale defection of voters has created conmunication in Republican circles, and already organization has started for 1922. The Republican has been the voice of the sticks to his councillorship, by plurality of 10 votes, and stating that he does not fear the results of the recount took the lid off at a recent meeting of the city organization, and declared that unless the Republican party changes front, there will be little hope for success in the next election. Published In The Interest Of Colored People CLEMENCY DENIED CONVICTED MEN OF 25TH. INFANTRY Secretary Weeks Sends Contrary Report To House Committee In Case Of Negro Soldiers Charged With Houston Riot. WASHINGTON, D.C., Dec. 26—The War Department is opposed to granting clemency to the sixty three former members of the 24th Infantry who are in prison for participating in the Houston riots in August, 1917. Secretary Weeks informed the chairman of the house military committee. The secretary, in a letter, gave information concerning the prisoners sought in a resolution recently introduced by Representative Anthony (republican, Kansas) who asked whether any of the men were in leavenworth postsecondary for merely missing roll call on the night of the riot, and whether there was any likelihood of clemency. "The only reason clemency has not been extended and is not now recommended," Mr. Weeks stated, "is that on account of the offenses of which those men were clearly guilty they are not entitled to any clemency." Secretary Weeks reported that 58 of the 116 men convicted of participating in the riots were serving life sentences, while five others were in prison serving fifteen years apart. Of the others, nineteen were excused, the letter stated, six have died in confinement and the rest have either served out their terms or have been granted clemency. None was found, guilty because he had been absent from rally on the night of the riot, Mr. Weeks said. The war secretary said the evidence had not proven whether any injurie had been done, but in every instance the reviewing officers had recommended against clemency. OUTCOME OF RACIAL MOVEMENTS PREDICTED Special to The Argus NEW YORK, May 23—Success for a racial movement of Negroes is predicted in the Nation for December 25, and, various questions and "honored doubts" about the Marcus Garvey movement are answered. The Nation was the first great national weekly to take up the cause of Negroes in America and Haiti and throughout the world. The Nation will call the attention of its wide group of readers to the injustices and oppressions against which the Negro has to struggle. The Nation here reviews the Negro's constructive attempt at self-determination, and interprets it sympathetically through an article by Win. Doe. The Negro's movement is described, with the Negro of the Black Star Line, and related enterprises. Even if a republic of Africa should not be realized for many years, it can be stronger for a solid preparation. So the Negro's movement that it would be unfortunate if American Negroes should become so absorbed in the international movement as to miss any opportunity of strengthening their position in America. "Ten years ago," he says. "It seemed impossible to get the Germans out of the situation that happened, more idleable and unbelievable." The British and French empires less mortal than Germany seemed ten years ago."

"Shocking to the Native" Maran's only law is instinct without our inhibitions; western morality is unnatural and whites dispay viciousness shocking to the native. In his preface the author instances a village in the population has sunk from 1000 to 500. This, he says, is everywhere, the case since the whites came, bringing drink and disease, and compelling the case-loving natives to toll incessantly. "But what does it matter?

A Square Deal For Every Man PRICE 5 CENTS HARD FIGHT AGAINST THE L.C.DYER BILL The Anti-Lynching Measure Goes Over Until After Christmas On Account Of Fear Of Strong Democratic Opposition. SOUTH FIGHTING HARD Aswell Of Louisiana Admits They Want To Lynch The Negroes Without Interference On Part Of The Federal Government. WASHINGTON JUNE 14, C. Dec. 23. The five issues before the colored people of this city for the present is the anti-limestone bill which is now before the House of Representatives. The workers, most of whom are members of the N. A. A. C. P., seemed somewhat disappointed as the members of the House, one by one departed for their respective homes to spend the holidays, thus leaving it to not get a quorum to transact any kind of business. The president expressed by the more optimistic, who claim that the postponement, is almost a guarantee, that the bill will be immediately passed after Congress re convenes, following the holiday recess. It being argued that it will take the form of a party measure dividing according to the strength of each party—the democrats on the one side and the Republicans on the other. From all indications at this time it looks as though a hard fight will be made against the bill by the democrats. Whether this opposition is a "grand stand play" on the part of those who indulge in it, is not just clear for interpretation, but one thing which is noticeable, is that some of the Republican leaders are quite fearful as if the Democrats some, miraculous progress will transform the quorum into a Democratic majority when Congress re-convenes. Want To Lynch Negroes With out Interference The Negro was made a target for assaults on the part of Representative Aswell of Louisiana during a speech in opposition to the anti-lynching bill. He stated that the white people of the State should not interfere anytime they saw it fit without interference on the part of the Federal Government. And said that the passage of the bill would not prevent lynching. These words were taken to mean that he himself would lead a movement against the expression of contempt for the measure. Most of the Southern representatives looked upon the bill with contempt and so expressed themselves. And while some said they were opposed to lynching, yet they always made it right to lynch a "migger" without interference on the part of the Federal Government.

Filling Statio: a Setar § “3 ee a ays BOOKER WASHINGTON The ALBERT GAINS Company SPECIAL THIS FRIDAY and SATURDAY—Pathe's New Two Reel ALL COLORED Comedy "THE CUSTARD NINE," a Saturday Evening Post Story by HARRIS DICKSON THE GREATEST "WOMAN" DRAMA EVER PRESENTED. First of Universal's Big Superspecials To Be Shown At The Comet, and Recommended By The Management As The Greatest and Most Pathetic Drama. BRING YOUR CHILDREN TO SEE IT. BILLY HIGGINS FEATURES SHOW AT BOOKER WASHINGTON Billy Higgins, the screamingly funny comedian, easily features the four act vaudeville bill at the Booker Washington Theatre this week. Higgins has a distinctively original store of fun producing (albeit that never fails to register heavily on the tickle-bone indicator. The audience ties a string to Billy soon as he enters and continues to pull for him long after he has made his final "hop off." His three song numbers are "That's The Way Lies Get out," "Bed-Rings on Parade," and "Bull Frog Hop." They are all knock outs. Another single performer who is going big, is Rucker, "The Piano fool." This jazz manipulator of the iyory keys is in a class by himself. If he waits for some of the local talent to accept his challenge for a piano playing competition, he'll surely starve to death, for no one around these diggings has shown anything to equal his work. Walker and Johnson have a lively repertoire of songs and dances and rapid fire tetea life. Holoway and Parker, a sister team: dance, sing and make merry in flippant fashion. Pathe Comedy Picture "The Ustasar Nine" first of the two red comedies by Harris Dickson, from his famous stories in the Saturday Keeping Post, will be shown at the Booker Washington this Friday and Saturday. Its an all-colored comedy of a higher class than others previously seen on the screen, and the first All Colored film produced by Pathe Musical Comedy Xmas Week The Albert Gaums Company will come to the Booker Washington Theatre Monday for a week's stay. The offering will be a ginghing musical comedy featuring Albert and Alice Gaums and William Smedley, a wonderful singer. A real upbeat jittery show with pretty girls and good comedy is promised. COMEDY AT THE PENDLETON The Pondleton Theatrical amenities a complete departure from its usual picture policy for Christmas week. The Anderson and Wiggins Stock Company of 12 performers are booked for a week in musical comedy, beginning Sunday. The outfit is headed by Duke Anderson and Miss Johnna Gay. Pretty girls, funny costumes, good dangling? singing and smart costumes are promised. The program will also include special feature photophops. THE PICTURE THEATRES "The Sting Of The Lash." And "No Woman Knows." At Jestamere Pauline Frederick on "The Sting of the Lash" will be the feature at the Jestamere Theatre on Sunday and Monday. The noted dramatic star gives a brilliant performance as the wife of a man she saves from ruin through her unkind devotion. A troubadour climax is reached when the wife seizes a lash and dogs her husband to the point of exhastion. And the dogging helps to make a man of him. It is a gripping story with a well constructed plot On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, the feature will be "No Women Knows" It is the story of a family in a typical middle-western town and concerns a young girl who takes up the burden that killed her mother the burden of providing for a brother who is impoverished to be a genius. How she meets temptation, withstands it and finds endless happiness, occupies the screen with one of its sinestest and strongest narratives. "At The End Of The World," "Rough Diamond," At Catererion Berry Compson at At the End of the World will be the Criterion Theatre feature this Saturday. The story deals with the daughter of a gambling resort keeping in Shanghai. China who has been taught to regard men as hostess and to hold them at arm's length. It carries the spectator from Shanghai to a busy lighthouse in the southern seas where some of the most dramatic episodes ever seen upon the screen are portrayed on Sunday. Tom Max will be seen in his sensational photoplay The Rough Diamond" and Thomas Dawson will be presented in "Mother of Dreams". Another double feature on Monday will be Constance Talmadge in a brilliant revival of the charming story. To the Reed with Sailor, and Best Purp on a two reel comedy. "The Invisible Power," "Black Roses" And New Serial at the Star Honle Pogers and Irene Rich in the boxy baskey Power will be beaten at the Star Theatre this Saturday and Sunday. The story is not conceived with crews in their crankiness, but with the attempts of some of them to reform and the difficulties that a past vessel places in their path. The safety of the reformed thief's wife, holding pogant partners to a splendidly acted and legal story. On Thursday the Star will present Susie Hayakawa on Black Rose." The star plays the role of a Japanese gardener who is falsely accused of mothers murder and sentenced to the imprisonment. Working in the prison yard one day he watches the arrival of the supply train and conceives the idea of escaping. While the train crew are enjoying their bines he manages to gip up behind the engine unobserved, crawl into the cab, open wide the threatle and chash through the prison gates before anyone is aware of what has occurred. The first episode of Elmo Lincoln in "Ady," of Tarzan" will also be run on Thursday. Hand to hand fightts with lions, leopards, panthers and other wild beasts is a feature of thrilling serial." Hart In "Three Word Brand," And "No Woman Knows" At Comet. Wm. 8. Hart in "Three Word Brand will be the feature at the Comet Theatre Sunday. For the first time in his career he plays three distinct parts in a photoplay. He is first seen as a brave settler who, after seeing his twin sons safely away when he is menaced by Indians, plows himself and the BEGINNING. MONDAY and SATURDAY— MI DAY Wm.

B. Ziff Co. 608 South Dearborn St., Chicago, Ill. SEASON'S GREETINGS A MERRY CHRISTMAS is hereby extended to all the readers of this paper. THE SPIRIT OF THE SEASON permeates our heart as we think of the brief period between this and a year ago. This year has been one of service. The fullest measure of the season's spirit comes to those who have rendered unselfish service. This is the kind 66 service THE ARGUS has tried to render to mankind. If, in our efforts to render this service, we have found it necessary to criticise men and measures, we did it only with the hope of reforming, and helping them. If in pursuing our course we have offended some, it is only because we have our face set toward a goal - even as His face was set toward Jerusalem, led on by love of mankind. WE WISH TO EXPRESS our abiding faith in our fellow-men. It is through your confidence in us, that has made THE ARGUS a mouthpiece, through which your hopes, and aspirations may get a hearing before the bar of public opinion. Having sustained this mutual relationship, we would bring you a message of hope we have seen His Star. Behind the dark clouds shining we see the silvery lining. MAY THIS BE the best Christmas you have ever spent, is the sincere wish of the PUBLISHERS. UNWORTHY OF A SEAT IN CONGRESS LIKE THE BRAYING of a lot of jackasses come the voices of the Southern Representatives in Congress against the Anti-Lynching Bill which is now before that body for consideration. ACCORDING TO PRESS REPORTS Representatives from Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina and Louisiana, are in the lime light, displaying their ignorance. These solons have shown their utter unfitness to occupy a seat in the National law making body of the land by injecting race prejudice into the law making of the land. REPRESENTATIVE ASWELL of Louisiana during his "heated" discussion admitted that the lynching of Negroes in the South is a popular pastime which they did not want to give up. He pleaded for the right to lynch a Negro when they got ready. He monnaies the fact that race riots in which many Negroes were killed in the North and there was no effort made to stop the riots. But the "gentleman from Missouri" would rob the Southir of its popular pastime by making lynching a Federal offense. Advocates Lynching ASWELL DECLARED that the Negro was a rapist, and that white women, of the South, were afraid to travel alone. And said that lynching was fundamental in solving the question and didn't need any inter-meddling of the Federal Government. He also said that if Congress passed an anti-lynch law, it would stimulate mob violence. IF LYNCHING is a "fundamental" law of the South, then there should be no other law on their statute book. He who advocates lynch law is worse than an anarchist and has no business with a seat in the law making body of the land, local or national. OF COURSE, we should like to see the anti-lynching bill become a law as soon as possible, yet we should be satisfied if the House would on reconvening expel a few of the Southerners who have no respect for themselves for any one else. IN FACT, expulsion is too good for such men as Aswell and his ilk. And while we do not advocate mob violence in any form yet, we feel that a dose of their own medicine is what they should have—the country would be better off without them. MARCUS GARVEY WE WISH TO ACKNOWLEDGE the receipt of a copy of the Negro World, issue of December 17, containing a pictorial section. WE ADMIT the pictorial section, from the point of makeup and arrangement was very nice, but like the cow who gives the pail of milk and then kicks it over, the beauty of the paper was more than off-set by the remark. "We want to increase the output for 1922 of the only RSAL Negro newspaper that does not sell its policy." WE WOULD SUGGEST to Mr. Garvey that he learn a little more about other Negro newspapers before he makes such a sweeping false charge. WE SUPPOSE that Garvey is looking for a little cheap advertising in the way of libel law suits. We thought however, that the forced retraction of a libelous remark he made about C. Briggs should teach him a lesson. AS FOR THE ARGUS, we have not the time or energy to spend fighting every thing we see that is wrong in this world. We have never believed that Mr. Garvey was sincere in all he advocated, yet we did not raise our voice against his movement because we thought that perchance some good might come from it during the course of its existence, whether it was long or short lived. BECAUSE MOST OF THE Negro newspapers of the country have been tolerant toward the Garvey movement, it does not mean that we are excited over the free-for-all spending of money that is so much talked about, and have "sold out" to him. But rather in a spirit of helpfulness. MR. GARVEY surely is badly misguided. He doubtless has over estimated his strength. He has arrogated to himself (the Negro World) the only Negro newspaper that is able to exist with its policy not sold. He is in a class to himself. He has chosen to go alone. This Week This space will be devoted each week to a discussion of Community Problems and Current Topics. By Geo. W. Buckner OPEN AIR SCHOOLS There are 130 undernourished, dehydrated, or anemic colored children attending public schools now! Is your child in this group? These subnormal colored children cannot attend open schools. There are none for them. But there are two open schools where care is provided for children started in 1010. In addition, 25 children are cared for at Koch Hospital and the Night and Day Camp serves 24 girls. The only care provided for undernourished colored children in the city of St. Louis, to not knowledge, is that given the gift or given girls at Koch Hospital. Little wonder then that we continue to propagate disease. We are constantly being told that Negroes are twice as susceptible to tuberculosis. nor whites and yet no effort is made, nor do we make any, to rebuild these sickly children in time to ward off tuberculosis. Of the 11,000 colored children now attending the public schools one out of every 100 should be in an open air school. As a matter of fact, a recent survey showed that 130 children now are actually in need of open air schools. The Tuberculosis Society will erect a building if the Board of Education will furnish the ground, so great is the need for such work among colored people. It will equip the board that there was a suitable education upon its quarantine last year at which time, that the Board of Education side stepped the matter on the ground that a suitable site could not be secured. It is not absolutely necessary to have a large building and grounds to initiate the work – the very name indicates that there must be air. The first open air school was started in Charleston, Germany in 1904, and in this country, at Providence, R. L., in 1905. Neither school represented an outlay of more than $3,000. In the same year New York City started its first open air school, using an old ferry boat. Boats of many houses have been used for such school purposes, especially in Chicago. The work in St. Louis had its beginning in a shack outside of the city at an approximate 100 feet of many houses. I have recently learned that a Committee claiming to represent the colored people has informed those in position to offset improvements along this line that the colored people do not want open air schools. I believe the colored citizens of St. Louis will challenge this statement or any other that any Committee may make that we do not want the facilities that will make our children healthy and strong like other children. Will not the principals and teachers ministers and doctors bring to the attention of the dire necessity for these schools for colored children? CHRISTMAS GREETING From The MissouriL Negro Republican League Club To The Citizens Of St. Louis on the Nationality of the meek and lowly Nazarete the Missouri Negro Republican League Club wishes to extend to the good citizens of St. Louis the greetings of the season. We sincerely thank you for your legal support, and because of the faith you have in us we have been able to accomplish many things for which we all have fondly hoped and fervently played. Chief of our accomplishments we point with pride to Negro Purification and Firemen. We have received individual jobs but to stand for those ideals and firmly contend for/those propratives which are sorely to the heart, of every free American citizen. We have worked for the greatest good for the greatest number of people, and our motives have been truly altruistic. We have kept the faith and the only reward we seek is well done thus good and faithful servant. Mr. Jerome F. Duggan, chairman, St. Louis American Legion Executive Committee, skips at the regular Sunday, 1:30 P.M. Mr. meeting of Curtin Hydte Post No. 194 at the Post Headquarters last Sunday. Among the many things said, these were the most treasured by the ex-service man present. "The American Legion having no prejudice, knows no cruel or religion." The American Legion asks not to control America, but the American Legion does want its immediate rights. Legion men look out for your disabled buddies. Do not let them suffer. The deals of the ex-service men speak for themselves. The people locked up to you in times of war, whether they look up to you in times of peace or your shoulder to your back. If the bravery of such was followed by few words of cooperation from Tenn. Sowell Post delivered by Attorney John N. tweens. Capt. Emmanet Brown, Commander of Glvin Hydte Post, presided very aptly explained and defended the two words derived by being an American Legion man. He urged that all of the ex-service men present, re-locate in their war risk insurance and pass the word along to every ex-service man and that the 31st of December 1922 is the last day that application for re-treatment will be honored by the War Risk Insurance Bureau. Any ex-service man desiring to relocate may get application blank from Mr. Hydte Post. Mr. Hydte Post, 721 N. Common Air at the Caltha Hydte Post No. 194 at the Post Headquarters, 2303 Object out Street.

ORGANIZED COLORED RAILWAY EMPLOYEES Will Meet At Birmingham On February 12. Sixty Five Million Dollar-Yearly Income Represented. The Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, Ill. Dec. 21—February 12th or Lincoln's Birthday will witness at Birmingham Ala., what is planned to be the largest practical industrial and economic gathering of people of our group. While the feature event of this meeting which will last three days, will be a special convention of the representatives of organized colored railway employees connected with the Railway Men's International Benevolent and Industrial Association, as represented by R. L. Mays, Osie Long of Birmingham and J. H. Elliard of Memphis, the meeting will take on a wider scope. The certain future situation hinted at by President Harding. In his recent speech, stating the labor supply resources of the South would be tapped in order to meet western and western needs in industry will be given full and certain in order to promote better race relations because of the Negro greater participation in industry, north of the Missouri and Dixon lily, and also to secure other opportunity and maintain the present strength of our group in the industrial South, the above labor leaders have invited prominent men like E. K. Jones of New York, head of the National Urban League and Dr. K. K. Moton of Tuskegee as speakers and advisors on policy. Mr. Jones will be asked to discuss the possible absorption north and west of the Negro industrial immigrant from the South into the housing, and political results. Dr. Moton will be requested to analyze the effect future immigration of our people from South to other points will have on the local or southern situation. Realizing the men directly concerned the mechanics and laborers of our group should be awakened to the vast opportunities opening to them, both Mr. Mays and Mr. Eland agreed, at a conference in Chicago to make personal campaigns over the country in order to have it, than two hundred gates at Birmingham for the conference. The railroad group has made the first move through a bill introduced in Congress Dec. 5 by Representative B Madden at the request of R. L. Macy, while the Mays-Elland-Long combination have chosen to rebrand to an observatory contracts from which Chlorel workmen suffer, by being detrived from painful employment. Defined in dollars and cents, the importance attached to the conference represents a yearly income account of better than $50,000,000 to our people in railway service alone.

COLORED MAN HAS BEEN ON RAILROAD DINER FOR THIRTY-THREE YEARS Noted for His Perpetual Smile, Hd Sayas, "I Am A Salesman, I Sell Service." Associated Negro Press PHILADELPHIA, Pa. Dec. 21—Of three hundred years, Railroad men recently taken part of the unusual career of John J. Jones, veteran ambassador of the system. Thinks three years of strict service on the famous "Congressional Limited" one of the first trains in the United States is his achievement, obtained probably by very few during car men in the country. He performed very audacious service in connection with the great blizzard of April, the terrible storm which he personally operated on some other trains he is distinctly a Congressional man and during his long duty on this coach he as become personally acquainted with, and been called by name, by nearly all the distinguished national characters during the past quarter of a century, having personal iserved meals, among others to ex-presidents, Cleveland, Harrison, McKinley, Roosevelt, to president, Woodrow Wilson, to speaker of the House of Representatives Jag G. Bline, Wun, J. Bryan, senator Daniels and Tillman, Secretary of State, Hughes, Admirals Dewey, Schley and Perry; General Nickles, Miles Persdine; Mosra, McAdoo, Daniels Baker, Launding of the Wilson Administration, as well as distinguished elders such as J. P. Morgan, Commander Vanderbilt, O. H. Pelton, President Bounty, A. M. Schroeder, Gould, and his son Goe I. Gould. Mr. Jones most stalking characters are his perpetual smile and amiable manner. He lays that passengers frequently referred to the fact that he always wears a smile. Recently a lady guest who mews the "Gregorsian" frequently, injured of Mia as to how he was able to keep smiling, regardless of the demands made upon him by the passengers. His reply was "Madam, I am a sabrina. I sell service. If I am nice to my passengers, they are good to me." In adding Mr. Jones for a competition as to the dining conditions at the hotel, he first took up this line of advice he gave the host, striking funniest to him. In the guest, a day's meal does not at heavily, reliably due to (the fact that this year's all diners served a $10.00 table of hote dinner and for average ginger juice everything from oranges in these diners a dinner was something of an inconvenience, blending a stop /'stɒp/ *dialect* at terminal stations and passengers were so find to get away from that delay that they were critical about the dining car service. Nowadays a dining car is taken for granted on all first class trains; passengers are discriminating in their selection of food and critical and expecting us to service Mr. Jones estimates that during plating $500,000 is approximately 300,000 meals.

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC -The First Classma -The First Christmas YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC -The Most Joyous Day in the Year. 1. The King Earnestly Sought (vv. 1, 2) These Wise Men who sought Jesus were either Arabian or Persian astrologers—students of the stars. The appearance of an unusual star attracted their attention. Perhaps they were acquainted with the famous prophecy of Balaam (Num. 24:17). Doubtless through the influence of the Jews who remained in Chaldea, or the direct influence of Daniel extending to this time, they had become acquainted with the hope of a Messiah. The light they had was dim, but they lived up to the best they had. To those who act upon the best light they have, God always gives more. To those who refuse to act upon the knowledge given, God not only refuses to give more, but brings into confusion that which they already possess (Matt. 25:28). These men were really wise. Let us learn from them; 1. That all true wisdom leads to the Savior, for He is the Logos—the fulness of wisdom. 2. That God's Word shall not return unto him void (Isa. 55:11). The seeds cast upon the waters of the East brought forth fruit after many days. No work done for the Lord eventually fails. 3. The grace of God calls men from unexpected quarters. Some who have the least opportunities give the greatest hodors to Christ; while others, blessed with the richest opportunities, shut Him out. 4. Herod Seeking to Kill the King (vy 3-8) The news brought by the Wise Men struck terror to Herod's heart. He was not alone in this, for all Jerusalem was troubled with him. The news ought to have brought joy. A glimpse at the social customs in and about Jerusalem at that day will enable us to understand why this news brought uneasiness to the people. They were living in the greatest luxury. Fine dresses, sumptuous feasts, fine houses, etc., led to gross immoralities. They did not want a Savior who would save them from their sins—they wanted to continue in them. Herod demanded of the priests and scribes information as to where Christ should be born. They soon were able to tell him. These people had a technical knowledge of the Scriptures, but had no heart for the Savior set forth therein. They had no disposition to seek Him. This all occurred in Jerusalem, the city of the King—the places of all places where He should have been welcomed. It seems where the greatest privileges are, there is the greatest indifference shown as to spiritual matters. III, The King Found (vv. 9-12). The Wise Men having obtained the desired information, started immediately to find the King. As soon as they left the city, the star which had guided them from the East appeared again to lead them on. Not that it had disappeared from the sky, but the dwellings of the city, no doubt, shut out the sight of it. Oftentimes our spiritual vision is obscured or hidden by the things of this world. The star guided them to the place where the Christ was. Those who earnestly seek Jesus shall find Him, though all hell oppose. When they found Him they worshiped Him. In this they displayed true faith. They did not see any miracles, only a babe, yet they worshiped Him as King. "Blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed" (John 20:20). Note God's overruling providence in all this. Many hundred years before, the prophet said that Christ should come from Bethlehem (Micah 5:2). God so ordered affairs that Mary should be brought to that city to give birth to Christ. God so ordered that these men should depart another way, thereby defeating Herod's wicked purpose. The Lord put gifts into the hands of Joseph and Mary before going to Egypt. Doubtless this served a good purpose in meeting their expenses during their stay there. Truly "All things work together for good to them that love, God." (Rom. 8:28). Dedicating the Wall of Jerusalem. And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem to keep the dedication with gladness, both with thanksgiving and with singing, with cymbals, pettieries, and with harps—Nehemiah 12:27. They Rebel Against the Lord. Neither say, they in their heart, Let us now fear the Lord our God, that giveth rain in his season; he reserveth unto of the appointed weeks of the harvest—Jeremiah 12:24.

Christmas Festival THE INSTITUTION of the festival of the birth of the Saxon is attributed by some authorities to Pope Telesphorus, who died A. D. 138. In the early days of the Christian religion it was one of the most movable of feasts, being often confounded with the Epiphany and celebrated by the eastern churches in April and May. In the Fourth century the urgency of St. Cyril of Jerusalem obtained from Pope Julius L. an order for an investigation to be made concerning the day of Christ's nativity. The result of the inquiry, made by the theologians of the East and the West, was an agreement upon the twenty-fifth of December. As told in the gospel of St. Luke, Christ was born in the night. Therefore, divine service is performed on the night of December 24-25. It is the custom in Roman Catholic churches to usher in Christmas day by the celebration of three masses, one at midnight, the second at early dawn, and the third in the morning. This custom dates from the sixth century. Preparatory to Christmas the bells are rung at midnight throughout England and the continent. After the solemn celebration of the mass in the churches of the continent, which are magnificently adorned for the festival, it is customary for the worshipers to pertake of a collation. Christmas Games MISTLETOE. Hang it up. Form a circle. A slipper is required. Also a nice slippery floor. The first player slides the slipper. He tries to land it under the mistletoe. If he fails another makes the attempt. If he succeeds there is a lively scramble. It concerns the young lady toward whom the slipper points. She must, elize it and get away, before caught. Then the guests are given humorous gifts (previously wrapped), and are admitted (one at a time) to the Christmas room to deposit them in the stockings. Another jolly game is played with Christmas stockings, a number of which are previously hung up. These are placed in a separate room and the name of the person for whom each is intended is concealed upon it. Another Christmas stocking game calls for a huge stocking of tough tissue paper filled with toys of all kinds. Each guest is blindfolded, given a light red or cane, turned three times around and told to hit the bag. The first to break the stocking gives the signal for a general scramble, each guest being supposed to get one of the trinkets or souvenirs thus scattered. Conserving the Tablecloth When the tablecloth is partly worn cut an inch off one side and one end, and make a new hem. When it is troned the creases will come in new places and the wear thus he redistributed. CAIRO, Egypt Dec. 14. The recent negotiations with an Egyptian delegation on the abandonment of the British protectorate over Egypt, shows as had been previously indicated, that the Egyptians rejected the proposals of Lord Curzon, the Foreign Secretary, chiefly owing to the state's military provisions. The reply that the proposals reserved to Great Britain the right to maintain her military forces at all times thru out Egypt and to control communication, which "constitutes occupation pure and simple, destroys every idea of independence and suppresses even internal sovereignty." The reply also says that the British proposals respecting the Sudan are unacceptable, as they failed to guarantee to Egypt the sovereignty of the Sudan and her control of the Nile. The Associated Negro Press NEW YORK. Dec. 14.—Thomas A. Edison says a late discovery marks a long step toward manufacturing gold out of base metals.

COLORED BASEBALL PLAYERS President Of The National Negro League Says Older Generation Passed Out Of Baseball Without Leaving Anything For The Younger To Take Up Except Ability To Hit And Think. This is a third of a series of interesting articles by Andrew "Rub" Foster. The fourth and last article "Colored Umpires" will be published in the next issue of The Argus. Dec. 30. BY ANDREW "BLUE" FOSTER This is no doubt the easiest article that I have ever attempted to write. To write about Colored baseball players, is like I | v | w | g | "in a city for a long time, riding on a street car and knowing each street as you pass it. My association is that even at no present age I have never lived at any place continuously as long as I have been associated with baseball players. We have many various types of players with whom we wish to deal in this article: the players of fifteen years ago and the younger generation of players of today, the players who have excelled out of baseball without leaving anything for the younger generation to take up except their ability to think and hit. In Grant Johnson, Sol White and William T. Smith, twenty years ago three of the trading ball players of the world we know they could hit, throw and hold. They had an advantage of a managed and handled the destiny of the players of that day and had the future of the players of today, in their hands. An exceptional players, with their educational advantages they have contributed nothing for which the players of today may hope to prove; their superior baseball knowledge with years of training and experience superior to any of the players of the present time should make them towerers, of strength as managers of the younger set of players. Had they developed their ability, applied same practically their services now, would be indispensable. As it is the players will not tolerate these men simply because they have hard work, they have great in them they would have been in control of baseball long ago. These men can still be made of great use. Coming down to the present players of baseball, we have some few men with wonderful ability, that is natural at ability; they accidently hit in some great plays at times but none of them have the ability, with a few exceptions, to initiate in any play. Ball players of their profession are far healthier in baseball. The players of today with whom I come in conflict are doing much to the profession they have chosen as a lifelong friend; their conduct is far healthier their profession; they have not influenced the confidence of their coaches. They have rish off with so many people, signed contract with any manager, sign contracts and draw money in advantage on these contracts, having the managers to keep them up until the time to play baseball, come to these managers with a proposition that they have been offered more money than they make with them but if they will give them more money that collectively $200. In addition to this $70,000 has been spent in transportation, room, food and street-car service for those players. Aside from two thirds of the men have asked for advice and help, there have been calls on their next season's work. The players don't believe the owners can afford to pay them the amount of money they ask so they try to get an black money in advance as possible in order to hust the owners in their contract. They are fastly killing the players. The industrial disasters that has hit the fulling country must receive adjustment in the players salary as in other lines of business. The Government will not pay these men such a salary—the marking in 1979 is bring thousands of men at least $200 per week. They work at the factory, but the majority of our ball players cannot give enough to our work's buildup after the time of the disasters. Two of these workers plan more money to make money. They break apart and take away the money. By the same means the players plan more money to make money. By the same means the players plan more money to make money.

Affords An Unusual Opportunity For The Course For Professional Nurse Under Mest Favorable Environments. In the fall of 1512, the Norse physician of St. Louis put a greater desire to serve the community and their people in a more efficient way. It was agreed the only way his could be accomplished would be through better opportunities for development in the science of Medicine and the best way to develop in this life would be through well equipped hospital. The honored Mayor was waited upon and their desire placed before him. He expressed himself as being a perfect harmony with the proposition. Other Municipal officials felt the plan improvable. So great was the desire to learn and to serve that we continued to knock on the door of opportunity until only it was opened in 1818 when the city purchased the Carrison and Lawton Ayones for the farm of $22,000,000. This structure was formally used by Barnes Medical School and Hospital and in order to make it as modern as possible if it was thoroughly remodeled and renovated at a cost of $32,000,000. being completed in November 1910. it is now compelled with all modern appliances including a complete X-ray room, with the most up-to-date outfit, laboratory, a diet kitchen, a social service department, in sheriff, everything that can add to the comfort, safety and recovery of the unfortunate poor of our race. The order and cleanliness that prevails throughout the institution bear testimony of our ability if we be given the right opportunity. for it must be understood that the direct management of this hospital; medical and others involves upon men and women of the Negro race. There is a Visiting Staff and an Associate Visiting the latter consisting of twotwo Negro phys- icians. Now what does it all mean to the citizens and profession of NL Lands and the country? It means that the Negro degradants on charity can be cared for in a modern hospital by their own nurse and doctors who are in a better position to know their peculiar idiosyncrasies, their habits, and their needs. They are making the better citizens. But beyond the immediate beneficiaries of the hospital, the entire Negro population of this city, our state and even the nation are benefited. Take for instance the arrangement of the medical staff of the hospital, there is a large Visiting Staff rank of recognized and awarding specialists in the various branches of medicine. The staff of the Faculty of Medicine, University School of Medicine, recommended by the latter, to the City for appointment. These men are in charge of the medical service of the hospital, giving freely of their time and experience to our patients. Clearly attained with them in this work is the house staff, composed of eight junior, and two senior interns, resident Physician and Surgeon; all of whom have more or less recently graduated from medical colleges. An exceptional opportunity is hereby given to ambilious medical men to gain experience in the various fields of the art and science of healing by bringing them in closer contact with the highly trained, unified and unprejudged physicians of other races who had years and years of experience in the amenable fields of contact with the struggling infant in the profession who have ever done of opportunity closed in their fields and have been knocking and knocking until the present time when the door has been opened; to know their abilities and all he is asking for is all opportunity to gain experience so that he might contribute his part to the world. While thus the healer will do a great deal toward raising the efficiency of our physician, it will have a yet greater influence upon the nurse profession. There have been a very few "supervised training schools where 'Angels of Merry' of our race" — indeed. There is hardly a calling in the world that has undergone an expansion as that of the term "nurse." Not only are the nurses and later hospitals in existence which require a larger number of nurses, but the people themselves, rich and poor alike, have come to realize that in a case of illness the doctor needs the assistance of an intelligent, efficient and highly trained nurse to carry the patient than to recover and health. There is no profession that demands greater consi- in the players and would cause baseball to be损毁 so that of three years it is coming to hear the players, their coaches. They claim that we know nothing about baseball, this is a lack of politely and free discussion among themselves, and soon becomes public property. On various occasions I have advised them the monstrosity of such talk, that given the owners did not know as much baseball as they, that they were new owners, that they had a sharp, consequently they must have more serious than they if not they could not be able to go into business and hire men. I further state to them that if we did not have men who were willing to go into the baseball business asking the loss of everything that they may have a baseball club at least would be of jobs. Learn to earn what you get and cut out the criticisms. Ball Players Conduct Must Change Baseball among the whites was on downward grade until the big league owners and scouts went into the colleges and brought out the college athlete who purified the situation and brought baseball up to the present high ranked. The colored students adopted colleges and brought up to the college of baseball players believing their superior knowledge and educational advantages would raise the standard of the players and did for me "the continuous/Rules."

They naturally have the confidence of the owners and the public as well. The owners have favored a number of them in giving them more money than others, and the players have an ability as built players, but their conduct and association have been such to lose, the respect and confidence of the people that they once had. A lot of owners have thought because a player is college-bred, he knew more baseball than the fellow who had not attended college. I know however that they do not know as much baseball and are harder to teach than the players without the advantage of a college education. It is absolutely impossible for a player to make a good ball player final. he has had to under some man or club who really knows baseball. Of all the players that I have ever had, it took from two to five years to make them even valuable to the team.

It is in this that they have the advantage and should put it to use; if they did that they would serve as a coach. If they did not, they would be by a player who has not attended college, but who has had much experience and gained much through contact, what is their idea of such and such a rule and upon receiving the answer the player does not agree with him and asks for a further explanation in order that he may understand him better the college chap rules that if he explains them to me, I will understand him still. I have had some of the players to tell me of these incidents. I make it my business to come in contact with these individuals who are so full of knowledge, and ask them a few questions, concerning the rules of different plays. Their brains become paralyzed that they are unable to grab the ball, and ask them how they know but take the time to explain the things to them until they plainly understand. Our college players have found that there is much to learn; that to read a rule and compile it to memory is just the beginning of their handball knowledge; that the interpretation of any rule is based upon the interpretation questioned by the game Committee and in the absence of the latter.
