Racial Issues Left Out. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2—The Democratic party is overwhelmingly in favor of the United States entering the League of Nations but the party cannot correctly debating whether or not it should move for the party to go to the people again with the League as a party issue. There are many of the party leaders who think they would be sure to support the League if the League stands is taken. **Opinion Is Divided** There are other leaders who supported the covenant when it was beaten. They think the Democrats should go to the program of "expanding" the Republican party rather than with the League. They feel that the United States will need and should now, be a member of the Democratic party, expressed for their own political heads if they advocate this action. Senator Oscar W. Underwood, Democratic leader in the Senate and a delegate to the Washington Confederate Convention, while not discussing with this component the league as an issue, did express an opinion that it would be expedient for the democrats to go to the people bitterly arranging the Washington conference, as was proposed by some of the party leaders. It is my opinion, said Senator Underwood, that the people of the country will approve the work of the conference—the net result." There will result achievement failed to the people, he regretted that the conferences could not bring about a reduction in land forces. And there are other omissions for which the conferences might be criticised. But for the results achieve conference, there will be little criticism. Caution, the Policy It might be unwise, therefore for the Democratic party to go to the people with criticism of the conference. There are other fundamental reasons for more productive of telling stories. The opinion of Underwood are generally considered as being pretty much a forecast of Democratic opinion. That he is not making any of the usual southern race plans augurably a big effect of the colored voters kidding over the races in recent elections. Colored leaders and white leaders who are familiar with conditions are meeting with a host of interest the next day. When things begin popping next fall both parties are going to be blinding for the colored vote, straight Republican leaders are expected to operate by every trick and turn possible.

Special to the Argus. HOMER, La. Feb. 2—Twenty-three million dollars, more than erosible oil webs, and a big oil refinery in Clalborne Parish Louisiana, have all been found by the Louisiana Supreme Court to be the property of Miss Turmer, turmer, colored as sole heiress of her mother, Mrs. Loma McGhee. Through a decision of the state Supreme Court last fall Miss Turmer was awarded a rehearing in the case that prevented her from obtaining a heiress at the time. Forericht, April 11, the third district court of Clalborne Parish awarded the hands that property to the Colored heiress, decision and obtaining a rehearing of the whole case on the grounds of a contention that Miss Turmer was an legitimate child of her mother, Mrs. Another contender, Mrs. Angela Allen mother of Mrs. Melissa and grandmother of Miss Turmer began a contest of the claims of her grand-daughter when oil was discovered on her property, worthless property but was defended in both the lower and higher courts. The final, big battle in the case came up in the courts at this place on January 17. There were, many witnesses on both sides, and every son with the assistance of suburban Negroes to wrest the colored woman's enormous holding from her. The excellence of the case and the strength of the rightful bleness, though made by a nature to bring to her aid some of the best legal talent of this section of the country, with the rare result that Miss Turner received an absolute and absolute possession of what is possibly one of the largest fortunes in the United States owned by a woman. The Auld and which oil was found in the Lillian Turner was originally a part of the worn out Louisiana bottom land, practically worthless for farming purpose and useful only, as a place of residence for a few poor women. The value wuept in leaps and bounds with the coming in of the first big gusher, was the land worth at the outside of more than $5,000. No injury was taken in it nor its owner. Loretta Methene and Lillie Turner, grandmother, mother, and daughter were of no consequence, apparently, to themselves their neighbors are the community. The parties was ever taken of any of the parties to the case. Like many other farms in this district the Turner farm was in the oil belt. Experiments upon it were the same as thousands of other experiments which were carried from them excepting hard work and blasted hope. Once it was established though that the oil upon the place was real oil and that the money to be made from it, roan real money, some of the money was given to the ardent solicitors for the favors of the desiplied three colored women, $N_0$ case in the history of Louisiana hawyer attracted more women. The fact that no woman in the state is more cordially received or more warmly thought of than Lillian Turner, with her $2,000,000 golden halo, TEXAS JURYMEN DECIDE WHITE MURDERESS CRAZY Woman Who Killed Colored Man At Dallas Will Go To The Aylum.

Duncan McMinn, beloved wife of James McMinn passed away at 6:25 p. m. Sunday January 18, 2014 after suffering conflict to be best only after she was attending to her business on Friday as usual but was stricken that evening. Mrs. McMinn was born in Montgomery City, Missouri and came to St. Louis when a little girl. She started working in the service of some of the best families until about five years ago. She saved her money and helped her husband enter business at 522. B. W. Lewine. There they met financial reverses and worked, but kept on working and saved enough to start her husband in business again; this time the Law- ton in at 3132 Layton. After a trial of eight months, another failure overtook them. Still persistent, they billied ball at 2890 Market. After a year of success she was able to stop work and two years later, by saving her husband's earnings, moved to the Newport Hotel where she had been property. Three years later her death suddenly, also a bungalow at Montgomery City and operated the New Dunbar Hotel in St. Louis. Mrs. McMinn was always a willing contributor to charity, a good church worker and always kept in touch with her friends. She loved her friends out in her car, usually some one who had travelled with her in going to work every morning. She knew every laudress in the west cut. She knew every house in the city. She knew Lizzie Turner and Chandelier 3206 Lawton avenue, whom she knew all her life, were devoted friends Their love can not be told in words. They count to coast by the traveling public and railway men and women. She traveled every summer, throughout the east and west, making friends in the city, the countryside, the hearted husband, a sister and brother, and a host of friends to mother their lost. CARD OF THANKS I sincerely thank my deferred friends for their kindness. I can never express in words my gratitude for the kindness and sympathy shown me in the most trying hours of my life. The beautiful floral offerings and expressions of love have put a smile on my face. But, with you the success and happiness you deserve. May God bless you all.

THE GOOD NEWS—You can now obtain Silverware at our store at the same bedrock prices and on the same easy credit terms that you can obtain so many other articles. The kind? Well, we looked into the Silverware proposition pretty thoroughly before deciding that point, and we finally came to the conclusion that the lines manufactured by the Oneida Community—the famous COMMUNITY PLATE, guaranteed for 60 years, RELIANCE PLATE, guaranteed for 25 years, and PAB PLATE, guaranteed for 10 years—offered by far the best value for the money. So we have stocked all three lines of this well known Silverware. In COMMUNITY PLATE we have for your choice the Adam, Grosvenor, Patrician and Sheraton patterns; in RELIANCE PLATE, the Exeter, and in PAR PLATE the Vernon and Bridal Wreath. While there are few women who do not know of COMMUNITY Plate and who do not desire some of it for their own tables, not all have been in a position to pay cash for their needs in this line. Our plan makes it possible for you to take-home a set of the most beautiful Silverware made and immediately enter upon the measure of its possess and use without any payment whatever. Terms are ranged practically to meet your own convenience. Call soon and let us show you our assortment of the high quality Silverware. Open until 6:30 p. m.

MUSIC STUDIO TO OPEN SOON Young Ladies Will Teach All Branches Of Music. Public Invited To Inspect Studio From 2 To 10 Opening Day, February 10. President Emeritus U. W. Elliot of Harvard University, has said, "Music rightly-taught is one of the best studies, for the training of the mind." Following are some excerpts from the Musical Circle of adopted by the National Council of Music in America. "We believe that music is a powerful curative for mental moral and for physical life." The above are quoted so that the readers may see that, all thinking men and women regard music as a necessity. There was a time when music was considered only for the rich, or a luxury, but the time, thus come when music is required more for the poor. In order for the poor to hear the best music they must produce that music themselves and this can only be done by studying music for themselves. The Public schools are to be commended for the steps they have taken toward bringing good music to the children. You can help the community by musicaking the reason can be used to the Public Schools, the executive for good music was first given there. Music, we know, is one of the great stimuli of life. Be it patriotic, religious or sentimental, we are influenced almost against our will by its call. Then it follows that bad music will pull us downward; good music will ward us off. We perhaps notice communities or even individuals where no kind of music is heard but jazz or again other communities or individuals where the music is of an upward trend, did you not find an upheart different state of morals? Ther why not try to surround our children with only the best in music. Our race and our culture are truly no negrophenom, so, let us give our refinement that is within our reach; the refining qualities of good music. By establishing a studio of music in which violin, vocal and piano, music will be taught we hope to bring to the public of St. Louis, a larger opportunity to develop those talents qualities of piano and flute for amusement who come under our instruction to use the most modern and appraved methods of teaching; and to give to each pupil that individual and painting attention that is so essential to their well-being and advancement. Our studio will be located at the Rendition over the pharmacy. Our pupil will be Miss Grazia Carynnel of Minnesota, Minnesota and Miss Addie Williamson of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Miss Carnel has studied at the Northwestern Conservatory of Minnesota the University School of Music. At Lincoln, Nebraska and the University of Minnesota. She will have charge of violin and piano with some of the best teachers of Oklahoma. She will have charge of Voice and Piano. Some theoretical subjects will be taught including harmony, counterpoint, any training and appreciation. Special rates will be given those starting at once.

Miss., Feb. 2.—A secret organization of young boys has been found at Ellisville which calls itself the "R. A. R. Society." The interpretation is said to be "Run African, Run." There are twenty-those boys who are the purpose of objecting a constitution and by laws. The purpose of the organization is said to be to run the Colored folks out of Ellisville. The existence of this society was discovered when a pistol addressed to one of the members in care of the R. A. R. Society was, received at the local Post Office. On its arrival the postmaster, suspecting that it might be for some Colored citizen, sent for the town marshal, J. W. Revall who took steps that led to the discovery of the organization. The purchase of pistols for the society is provided for by a small membership fee. The first pistol purchased was to go to the organizer, the next-to the first one who joined the organization, and the others to the members according to the date of their membership.

Mr. Fox regards this as his first over all the pictures he ever made. If it was put on the big screen, it have watched the development of "Over the Hill" from the moment the first scene was written. I have attached it throughout the months "it has been in course of production. It presents a Labor of Love. In it I use a pride which has not been in all the Fox Film Corporation has been made pictures. The picture fans have verified his opinion and it is now termed "The most remarkable photoplay of the age." Comely, character drawing, romance sentiment, drama, all have their part in the big theme, which is written about, the divine love of a mother whose devotion and sacrifice knows no limit. Many names of known prominences that he will be compelled to charge 22 cents admission to see this production. Children will be charged 15c. This Saturday the Courier will present Thomas Moghan in "The Conquest of Caliban, and on Sunday Wallace Reid will illuminate the story of a pagan artist and a girl whose love romance develops on the house tops where they live. A human interest story based on the old age theme. "An I My Brother's Keeper," and Entitled "A Modern Cain," will be presented at the Star Theater tills, Saturday and Sunday, with an all-star cast of famous Colorful artists.

This is to inform you that at our regular meeting in June, 1922, the Alumni Association is planning to celebrate the fifteenth (1921) anniversary of the establishment of Lincoln Institute and the first year of Lincoln University of Missouri. The Alumni is to have a week. Programs, entertainments and banquets morning, noon and night. Come prepared to stay a week as you will be expected to appear on some of these programs. This matter has been taken up with President Richardson and faculty; also the Board of Curators, and all enthusi- sically endorse this undertaking. Cordiality has always characterized the gatherings of the Alumni Association,—good fellowship is the keystone in the relations of one member with the other—that which unites men and women in the interest of worthy and noble causes. True genuine friendship has always been the doctrine of the Alumni, and has always been responsible for the growth and development of Lincoln University. We are therefore interested in the furthering of this spirit of good fellowship at our 50th anniversary and class union in uNe. Appoint yourself a committee of one to be present. Don't you remember the god time you used to have at Lincoln? Havn't you very often. In the midst of stress and strain of the outside world, longed for "Old Lincoln" atmosphere and for the good old days when you were there? You no doubt thought of the various classmates and wondered how they have fared since their entrance into the busy world. Somehow the ties formed at Lincoln won't break and you have found yourself wondering if this girl made good, or if that boy ever amounted to anything. Come back [Lincoln, University of Missouri in June and you will meet some of those girls and boys. In calling and planning this reunion, we would like to have a reunion of classes. This is a very appropriate time for such a gathering, coming as it does just after the closing of Lincoln Institute and the opening of Lincoln University. The two facts alone seem to be sufficient for urging one to make a pilgrimage back to the shrine of learning in order that we offer up there one more prayer to God for enlightenment and knowledge. Participation in such a gathering will be a benefit to students, teachers and alumni. Graduates do assemble at the school each commencement to lend by their presence, encouragement to those who are still pursuing their courses; but these assemblies have never been as large as they should have been. Now after fifty years of training, we should have at least 500 alumni present. We should come singing (in the words of the poet) "We are Coming Dear Old Lincoln." 500 Strong." It seems to me that now is the time for the alumni to come to the aid of our Alma Mater. A clear relation should exist between Lincoln and her sons and daughters, as there needs to be an awakening of interest leading to tangible results. Many of you have been out in the world for years; we are urging you to come and see us in June. We will be looking for you. Let us not be disappointed. Come back and let us not forget the great sacrifice made by the 63rd and 64th regiments of U.S. Infantry, whose first thought, when discharged from service, was to establish a school where their children could enjoy the blessings of a useful education. "On to Lincoln's University in June." The following named officers will be pleased to give you any further information desired: Prof. Archie Lane, vice president.

C.'s Third Annual Charity Dance Associated Negro Press. Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D, C. February 1—The third Annual Charity Dance given under the auspices of the Northern Conference of the Associated Charities Organization of the United Colored College Field Friday, evening, January 13, 1922, for a monumental success. The ladies of the organization carried their slogan into every part of the city and now social, business, and professional Washington looks forward with eagerness to this annual event which is destined to have the Colored people more largely share in the effort to care for the worthy sick and indigent of the city. The Murray Casino, 929 You St., was the scene of the first brilliant affair of the year 1922. Men and women well known in social, business and professional circles throughout the nation were among those to come to make the benefit ball a success. Among the Washington natrons who were responsible for the affair and who devoted much time and effort in charity, work in Washington are the officers of the Northern Conference of the Association of Charities of the District of Columbia: Mrs. Emett I. Scott, Chairman; Mrs. Laura Bruce Glenn, Worker in Charge; Mrs. J. Hayden Johnson, Chairman of the Finance Committee; Assistance was given the ladies in connection with holding the charity ball by Mr. A. H. Glenn and Colonel Brooks who acted as official host. WALTER PATTON, MGR, Dealers in All Grades Coal, Wood and Kindling. You Make No Mistake In Ordering From Us. The St. Louis Argus THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, FEB. 3, 1922 Telephones: Lindell 1880, Ln. 3391, Delmar 303 THE FIRM WITH A CITY-WIDE REPUTATION WHITE WORLD FEARS NEGRO IN CONTROL OF A SHIP ON THE SEA Rest Of World Gets Suspicious Mad Nervous Whenever Black Man Threatens To Travel Op Ocean Under His Own Power. The Associated Negro Press THE ACADEMIC YEAR, JUNE 25—It is what that the white world most instinctively fears and most strongly objects to is a Negro in-control-of-shipmen there, especially if its prowling toward Africa. As practically all of the Negroes of the world are already in Africa, it would seem that a black man headed that way should not arouse any wild imaginations but be looked upon as merely "going home." But the cause of this attitude is clear; modern machinery has made the sea, more than ever before, the Highway of Civilization, the avenue of both culture and power. It is destined to be even more so in the future. Whoever can control this route, whoever can be the traffic cop of the seas will rule. Negroes have been conspicuous by their absence from this highway, and whenever one of them threatens to travel on it under his own power, the rest of the world gets suspicious and nervous. And so the American and African Tourist Company, organized by reputable Colored men and women of Philadelphia and elsewhere, for the purpose of an "African Cruise," have had their plans mysteriously halted, crippled and perhaps destroyed perhaps forever. We say "mysteriously," albeit the immediate interference is very plain: one Baltimore Company got $1,000 of the cruise company's money on a contract for a ship, and then refused to sell, but KEEPING THE MONEY; another "broker" or broker got $2,500 to buy or rent another boat, and then after demands had been advanced from one figure to a higher and higher, always met by the cruise company, suddenly the IMPOSSIBLE demand, for $45,000 down was made—and the last we heard of it, the $2,500 was still missing. Not Wanted for Africa They don't want you to go to Africa. Colored Brother. That's where you came from but they don't want you to go back. You need not go around boasting that you "are not going to Africa—they are not going to let you. This cruise company did something that it ought, in self respect, never have done; it went before the white people and the State Department and swore on a stack of Bibles that it did not believe in the Garvey Movement or any such ideas, in order to get to go, and THEN they were turned down "mysteriously" after so demeaning themselves. It may be quite all right for any Colored man, not to believe in any such movement but he should never deny any beliefs in order to get his plain rights. As American Citizens merely these Colored folk should have objected to any cross-questioning on any irrelevant creeds. If they can make Colored rights, swear that they can be lie in Garvey to claim their human rights, a little latter, they may make them swear that DO believe in Tom Watson, in order to "get permission." STRANGE SERIES OF FIRES IN SOUTHERN COLORED COLLEGES Theory Advanced That They May Be Result Of Organized Incendiarism Associated Negro Press KNONVILLE, Teen, Jan, 25—The series of fires of unknown origin that have occurred in the states of Abamby, Texas, North Carolina, Ohio and Tennessee, destroying valuable buildings and their contents on the grounds of leading Negro institutions of learning have created much alarm throughout the country and the theory has been advanced that the fires may be the result of some organized effort at incendiarism. One of the leading institutions in the state of Texas, for the educating of Colored girls was the first to be visited by line that destroyed one of the largest and most costly buildings; within a few weeks the report the burning of a building at a college in Selma, Ala.; was flashing to the country. Hardly had this report been spent before the news of the burning of one of the finest buildings of Wilberforce University, completely destroying the building and its contents and entailing a great loss, was noted. Only last week the spaces and costly Industrial Building on the campus of Biddle University, N. C. was rendered a complete loss by a disastrous fire. Recently before the breakfast bell had been sounded at Craney Hall, of Morristown College, forty miles from Knoxville, one of the young women of the bath, noticed a volume of smoke and flames burst forth in the building and in very short time the most building on the campus was a mass of flames. The several hundred occupants were able to escape with their lives only, all of their belongings being completely destroyed. The inadequacy of the fire department of the small town and high elevation of the building rendered the efforts of the firemen useless and the onlookers were powerless to stop the blaze. The building was valued at $100,000 and carried insurance to the extent of $255,000. The mysterious warnings which have occurred recently have been the cause of a special conference with the authorities and an investigation will be started at once. The St. Louis Arquus, $2 per year, in advance They might properly have said; "we have nothing to do with such and such a movement, that we are an independent organization of Colored Americans" but they should have been too proud, to say as a CONDITION for oblating their rights that they do not BELIEVE. They should have stated frankly their alliances and connections, but not their beliefs. We cannot avoid the conclusion, we wish we could; but that acknowledgment was disgraceful and we trust unwittingly made, never to be repeated. If we hated Garvey and all his followers, we should never acknowledge it as a CONDITION on our right to vote, for example. Business Directory MARKET FOR A HOME RENT INVESTMENT JACOBS REALTY CO.

PHONE, CENTRAL 5221 COLORED MEMBERS OF "THE COMMITTEE OF ONE HUNRDED" ARE IGNORED Names Left Off Invitations To Affair In Honor Of The Delegates To The Conference On Limitation Of Armenment. Associated Negro Press. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 25—As an aftermath of the conference on Limitations of Armament, attention is directed to a letter sent by a group of Colored men who were members of the Committee of One Hundred of the District of Columbia appointed for the purpose of entertaining the delegates to the Conference on the Liftation of Armament to Class J. Bell, Chairman of the Citizen's Committee on Entertainment, in connection with the reception given at the National Museum, Washington, D. C., in honor of the distinguished visitors and delegates to the Arms Conference. Says the letter in part: "It so happens that in reading the Washington Evening Star, we noticed reference to the fact that your Committee was planning an affair in honor of the delegates to the Conference, and that the names of each and every member of the committee was published as being responsible for this affair except in the case of the Colored men whose names apparently had been studiously eliminated; also when the invitations were issued we find that none were sent to any of the Colored members of the Committee of One Hundred and of course, we assume, none were sent to Colored persons of the District of Columbia, except in one case of which we have heard. "At a time when the world is seeking to give demonstrations of democracy, in our feel humiliated and demeaned in our self-respect that with the above facts before you and your committee there should have been, here if the presence of all the delegates from the four corners of the earth such a demonstration of littleness and narrowness illcoming a great nation like ours. "As we feel demeaned in our self-respect because of the above mentioned treatment, we feel that we could not afford to permit this studiously calculated slight to pass without advising you of the fact that we are conscious of it and register our protest against it." The letter was signed by: "James A. Cobb, George W. Cook, William L. Houston, Henry Lincoln Johnson, Emaget J. Scott, William A. Warteld and C. M. Tanner." Colored Washingtonians, generally approve the manly stand of this group of the leading Colored citizens who refused to accept the prejudice of the Committee on Entertainment without registering direct and vigorous protest. CREDENTIALS OF THE SOUTHERN SENATORS NOT GOOD AS NEWBERRY'S CREDENTIALS OF THE SOUTHERN SENATORS NOT GOOD AS NEWBERRY'S Democrats, Who Demounce Seating Him Represent Less Than 20 WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 25- Senator Underwood of Alabama, leader of the Democratic minority in the Senate, opened his speech against the senting of Senator Newberry as follows: "The case now before the Senate does not prevent the ordinary question as to whether a Senator has been fairly and honestly elected to a seat in this body. As I see this case, and as I believe the country will see it, the issue involved here is whether or not the Republican party as a party intends $t_0$ obey the law of the land. That is the issue involved here. It is seldom that you find a contested case that is so clearly-connected with party organization as this case it." The spectacle of the United States Senator from Alabama, or from any other of the Southern states, presuming to hate the Republican party to M. HON. C. M. WHITE Supreme Commander of The American Woodmen BROOKLYN 41. L. LIGHTNER Supreme Clerk A. W. the bar of public opinion upon the charge that, in federal elections that party does not obey the law of the land to say the least, excites derision. There hasn't been an honest federal election in any Southern state since 1876. The law of the land, obedience to which suddenly concerns Southern senators, has been openly and contemptiously flouted in every federal election in every Southern state. There is not the slightest presence in the South of conforming to the mandates of the federal Constitution as regards the rights of citizens to vote. Under the most favorable conditions less than 20 per cent of the legal citizenship of the South, exercises the right of franchise in federal elections. In some states the proportion runs as low as less than 8 per cent. There is not a Democratic Senator from any Southern state who was elected in conformity with the United States Constitution and the federal election laws. There was not a Democratic Senator who arouse to denounce the seizing of Senator Newbery who has a right to his own seat where his credentials examined and passed upon in accordance with the provisions of the United States Constitution. If the federal laws were enforced in the South, there would be, in a mere skeleton of the Democratic party which now exists, for five-sixths of its representation in the House of Representatives would be eliminated.

Light- T. L. Gentry, Of The Pioneer Realty Company Will Act As Agent Through Which Loans May Be Made. Supreme Commander C. M. White and Supreme Clerk, L. H. Lightner, of the American Woodman were in the city last week making investigations relating to St. Louis as a place for investing a part of the Order's funds which is growing to be one of its chief problems. They were readily convinced that St. Louis with its hundreds of Negroes purchasing homes was an ideal place and offered just the kind of security that they wanted. Accordingly, they authorized the Pioneer Realty Company to place $200,000.00 on first deeds of trust on Negro property. It is the policy of this Order to give the Negro the benefits of sharing in its surplus when they have satisfactory security. Supreme Commander White stated that he hoped to have all of the Order's funds, which now approximate $1,000,000.00, placed with Negroes in the next few years. In other words, he contends that all of the money comes from Negroes and they should share in all of its benefits. It is known that the Supreme Council has authorized Messrs. White and lightner to select a place for locating the home office which is now in Denver, Colo. Great pressure was brought to bear by some of St. Louis citizens to have them decide on St. Louis while they were here. They are greatly impressed by St. Louis but its chances for securing the home office will in a great measure depend on what showing the two camps here will make in their membership drive which will be launched in the near future. The success of that order has been that it has pursued cold business methods and not sentiment. If the citizens of St. Louis want the home office located here they must show it by actions and not words. J. B. H. The Pioneer Realty Company is headed by Mr. T. L. Gentry of 4249a Enuright Avenue. The Loan Department will be handed by Mr. Jas. T. Rush. It might be mentioned that Messrs Gentry and Bush were among the first persons here to join the order. It certainly pays to the a Woodman. We are pleased to announce to our many friends and clients that we are in a position to handle good first deeds of trust on property in any quantity and amount. Applications for loans will be considered in the order received. We suggest that you make your application whether your loan is due or not. We are also in a position to render top notch service in collecting rents, phasing insurance etc. We have listed some of the choicest property in the city.

Smith has a way of making one feel as though he were speaking directly to him, and this combined with his thorough knowledge of human nature, caused the Lane Tabernacle members and friends that packed the main auditorium last Sunday night to accept with unusual interest the important lecture after the sermon. Carelessness in the home was the thesis, that was probably given the pastor's lecture by most everyone in the congregation. After being prosperous enough to secure a comfortable home the pastor said the most important job was to give it the proper care. Beautiful homes were being shamefully neglected he said from Finney Avenue to Enright and from Sarah Street to Newstead Avenue the little things that go to make a home initting such as the proper care of the bawn and especially the rear, was sofully neglected in many homes he said. The speaker scored the ranged ampearance of the front and rear windows in some of the homes. From the pastor's ease and assurance of men he undoubtedly knew what he was talking about ad it is small wonder that he received such loud talk from the audience. -The good talk will not miss its target and there is small doubt that these conditions will soon be remedied. -This being the first Sunday in the month, a special sermon has been prepared by the pastor and all of the officials are asked to be in their pews promptly at eleven o'clock. Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Taylor, Miss Addie Willis, Frames Cigares, and Grace Council, rendered a musical program at the M. E. Chure F.

KINGSTON, Jamaica Feb. 1—United States and Canada are becoming keen rivals for the West Indian trade. Not much heard of annexation to U. S. now because the bulk of the population of America they have British jus. partnered with what they have heard of American treatment of Nerogees. But the rub is that trade follows the line of least resistance, and the British are building tariff wall to make "themselves a sustaining empire" as a result of lessons learned in the great war. Business men admit that property values would jump and that Jamaica would reach prosperity now denied if Americans bought these islands. A suggestion was made in the British press some time ago that this method for the liquidation of the war debts to America be adopted, but it is not probable that this proposal will be carried out. The people are shy at U.S. rule and are moving rather in the direction of self-government. England is trying to get Canada to do all it can for the Islands. America and Canada of present are engaged in a keen trade rivalry in the West Indies. It is urged that these islands become the tropical part of the British Empire of America; extending from the north pole to the equator, shutting out the United States with tariff walls. This sounds all right but it has not worked out so far. In 1920 the customs of Jamaica show imports valued at $50,000,000. Of this the United States will be $30,000,000, the United Kingdom $15,000,000, and Canada the balance. In manufactured articles however, the United States showed a decrease while the Canadians showed an increase. England is expecting to Sunday School Lesson Gy REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D. D.

God Reveals to Elijah His App. Approach Rapture (v 1). It was made known to Elijah that he was to go to heaven by a whirlwind. There is a striking correspondence between his life and his home-going. Much of his life was characterized with the rush of the storm, so God chose to take him home to himself in the whirlwind. As a reward for his faithfulness, God lifted the prophet over death into heaven. Elijah did not choose the time of his home-going, but was ready. II. Elijah's Closing Ministry (vv. 2-8). Knowing that the time of his home-going was near, he did not change his manner or method of life, but thoughtfully and calmly pursued his customary duties. 1. Visits the schools of the prophets (vv. 2-8). At the Lord's direction he went to give his farewell counsels to the young students whom he had been training and upon whom the future of the nation politically and religiously so largely depended. He made regular rounds in visitation and instruction. Schools were located at Gilgal, Bethel and Jericho. His educational work shows him to have been not merely an iconoclast, but a statesman of a high order. 2. Trains Eilisha to be his successor (vv. 2-8). There was a real friendship between Eilisha and Eilisha, though the one was old and the other young. Eilisha came into the life of Eilisha in the field when Eilisha called him from the plow (1 Kings 19:19-21). Eilisha clung to his master to the very last in spite of three urgent requests for him to remain behind. These tests were somewhat like those of the Master with Peter (John 21:15-17). The great object was to get him ready to take up the work which Eilisha was to lay down. The order of progress of the journey indicates, says Scofield, "the experience of every child of God who enters into a vital experience of God's best. That what began at Gilgal. The typical significance of Gilgal cannot be mistaken by any reader of Joshua. Gilgal was the place where a redeemed people rolled away the reproach of Egypt (Josh. 5.1-11). "The next stage was Bethel—house of God—the place of vision, of spiritual insight, for Bethel was the place where Jehovah gave Jacob the great ladder vision (Gen. 28:1-19). He must go on from Bethel to Jordan. Jordan stands for the New Testament truth, crucified with Christ. There, on the resurrection side of Jordan, the gift of power awaited the prophet." 119. Elijah's Rapture (vv. 9-14). 1. Elijah's request of Elijah (v. 9). The walk of Elijah with Elijah from Gilgal to Jordan has prepared him for the final question of Elijah before his rapture. Elijah now knew that it was safe to allow Elijah to choose for himself. Elijah made a noble request—would not ask for riches, honor or position. He supremely desired the qualifications which would enable him to worthily succeed Elijah. Curiously enough, however, Elijah performed twice as many miracles as Elijah. 2. The condition of receiving was steadfastness and perseverance (v. 10). He must have faith in the invisible life in order to have power for public ministry. 3. Elijah's rapture (v. 11). It seems that he went to heaven in a chariot of fire enveloped by the whirlwind. Elijah underwent that change which all believers shall experience at the appearing of Christ (I Cor. 15:51, 52). IV. The Spirit of Elijah Upon Elijah (vv. 12-15). 1. Elijah's cry (v. 12). He cried after Elijah, "The chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof!" This shows the value of a godly man to his country. It implies that Elijah was the true national defense. Godliness and character are more important than armies and navies. 2. Elijah uses the power (vv. 13, 14). He had faith to put the power to test. 3. The spirit of Elijah on Elisha (v. 15). This was confirmed by the sons of the prophets. A Prophecy of Christ. And the angel of the Lord protested unto Joshua, saying, Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee; for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the branch. In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbor under the vine and under the fig tree—Zechariah 3:8-10. Suffering. There is no suffering in the world, but ultimately comes to be seduced by God—A. T. Quiller Couch.

LOUIS BASEBALL ASS'N HOLDS FRANCHISE IN NAT'L NEGRO LEAGUE Pittsburgh and Cleveland Added To Circuit. St. Louis Will Retain North Broadway. BY DAVE WYATT CHICAGO, Feb. 1—The three days conference of the National Association of Colored Professional base ball clubs ended in a blaze of glory after each of the most harmonious sessions ever held by the league base ball body. The first day found the inaugural in the heaviest part of their business program which they dismissed with neatness and dispatch. After an all day confab-upon Friday, the 27th, the fast ebbing energy of the base ball gods was stimulated by a banquet staged in the elaborate quarters of the Appomattox Club at which the league and first citizens paused but showers of encouragement to the efforts of the base. ball-men who are making the fight for clean sports. New Cities in Circuit As regards number, the circuit remains the same as that of the past two years, but make up of the western circuit under the management of the addition of Cleveland and Pittsburg and the temporary dropping of Columbus, the latter's players being distributed throughout the circuit and with members associated with national association. The Cuban Stars will travel over the circuit as will the Chicago Giants. Many games will be exchanged with associated members and various outside attractions from time 16 to time but will be considered as exhibition contests as a variation for the fans along the circuit. Arsenal's Poster succeeded himself as the team's outside organization and all of the old champions remain at the helm for their clubs. Rumors of a cringe of the possessors of the St. Louis franchise did not materialize, but indications point to that direction. At present, St. Louis is still one of the league, cities, with a full right to protection of its assets, which include the players, all of the last year's roster being carried upon the reserve list of the St. Louis club. The Eachman's Giants is the eastern club to affiliate with the organization, and J. W. Connors, treasurer of the St. Louis club, was clothed with pater and sister of the accredited representative of the National base ball body in the entire eastern territory. The acquisition of Cleveland and Pittsburgh makes for added luster for the future of Colored base ball. Tate field at Cleveland represents a fifty thousand dollar investment, is owned by members of the race; it is well located and can be utilized to accommodate eight thousand persons. Sunday and weekdays attended at Cleveland and weekdays attended at Columbus surpass many of the older cities. The playing field at Pittsburgh is owned and operated by a member of the race and represents an out lay of more than seventy thousand dollars. No Sunday games are played 'in the Smokey City, but their_Friday and Saturday crowds are right up to many of the Sunday crowds of other cities. The players of the player of the Columbus club together various switches and traps gives the league a very evenly balanced, circuit on playing strength and 'is destined to keep interest at later heat at all points along the league ratio. Complete plans for the 1922 St. Louis Giants had not been arranged when the Argus to press, but it is understood that the Association will retain the park at North Broadway and Clarence Avenue. NEW YORK, Feb. 1—I begins to look more and more like a Dempsey. Wilts match every day, Harry Newman wired the Tribune. Along comes Billy Brady, famed theatrical manager, with the announcement that he stands ready to offer a purse of $200,000 for Dempsey and Wilts to do some boxing for the eight championship of the world. Brady is having a great time having during its long public career managed such great fighters as Jim Corlet and Jim Jeffries. Brady is sincere in his belief that there is a public demand for a match between the colored champion and the big Utah mauler. The offer of $200,000 hs thinks, is much more than Demps could hope to gather for a return to the cup, a perforator, which has been suggested for London next summer. A match was made the other day, wich led up to a definite arrangement for the Wills Depsey contest. Tex Rickard signed up Wills and Kid Norfolk to do battle in the garden for fifteen rounds on Thursday, March 2. No doubt the winner of this bout will be selected as the logical candidate to Dempsey for the propelled big match. Rickard announced after completing the necessary details for the Norfolk-Wills bout that he might revise his opinion about a mixed match and that if the public desired it he would be very glad to have Dempsey matched with the winer of the Norfolk-Wills boat. TATE'S MANAGER SPEAKS Associated Negro Front. CHICAGO, Feb. 1—When informed a few slight age that New York promoters were bidding on a match between Dempsey and Wills, Kid Howell manager of Hill Tate, colored heavyweight champion spotted right out loud. "BIR Tate is colored heavyweight for a win. Wills in Portland, Oregon recently," the Kid muck, and would have first consideration when it comes to a mixed show for the championship. Tate can whip Wills against him here in ring and win. ```markdown ``` Learn Creole Way—4229, St. Fordhand. Phone Lindell, 1136-W.
