Colored Men Risk Lives In
Helping To Dig Out The
Dead. Congressman, Who

Bill, Loses Brother.
Associate Negro Press
A terrible joke. Feb. 5—S. P.
February is a terrible joke, and always
unfortunate. The Klekeboer theater
disaster in Washington, horrible
beyond description, afforded grim les-
sons on the ramification of American
predilection, on both sides of the line.
Doctors, and ambulances were called
for the disaster, not far away, not
narrow long, however, a double pay
biological reason, unfathomable though
it be having its effect.
But Harry N. Price, probably the
foremost correspondent of the Wash-
ington Post, daily, carried these lines
through the crisis: "There were two Negroes who
names are unknown, and probably
never will be, who risked their
lives time and again, in digging
out the dead and injured."
There was a most, notable demon-
stration, of Negro nobility as
above the thoughts of color its s-
pressions and handicaps.
A Congressman who stood on the
floor of the House of Representatives
and strongly opposed the Antichol-
sic bill in hair raiding terms of the
House of Representatives, some of the
remarks about this may be dull d.
Washington's Colonist.
The Washingtonian's color has in recent years, is absolute, so as the trees are concerned. There are none who knowing about Colored America. In this particular theatre, which is located in the fashionable residential center of the northwest, there was not even a Colored janitor or maid therefor like the going down of the Titanic, great ocean liner, not a single Colored person was injured. The effects of the disaster did not strike home, as it might have done, to the hearts of Colored people because of the unspendable thoughts of Washington, a color prejudice. It is a "pity" of a same person who national states of mind.
A Corner Discussion
There was a corner discussion of the disaster at Hill and You Streets, the following morning, engaged in by whites and blacks. An old time "Mother of the race" came walking up slowly, stopped and listened. There was a half at a certain point, and the "Mother of the Race" took up the dialogue with characteristic eloquence, and dialect: speaking thus:
"You white folk try to pass, mighty big and powerful. You tries to shut all the doors in Colored Africa. You can shut out our brotherland as my son as my daughter, but I'm sure tell you something, you can't shut out 'Our Father Who Art Is Following this burst of point-up philosophy, there was silence for Ever-than-three minutes. If the Knickerbocker disaster will help teach some lessons on the folly of prejudice, after all, "These dead will not have died in rain."

Action Taken On Account of Deal Put Over By The Old Board- Of Regents That Paid $27,000 For Land Worth About One-Half of Purchase Price.
REP. WALTHALL MOORE CAUSED INVESTIGATION
JEFFERSON CITY, FEB. 8—The board of curators of Lincoln University has filed saint in the Circuit Court of Cole County against William M. Warren, a lawyer seeking to have rescinded a transaction by which it obtained 18 acres of Jefferson City realty from Ruwart for $27,000. The board is tendering back to Ruwart a deed to the property and asking for return of the $27,000. David W. Peters of Jefferson City, employed as special counsel by the Attorney General, is being told to bring such charges in his court. Thomas Speed M. who was president of the board, is members of the university. L. L.coln. Institute in the time the land was bought and sold, is being confided, conspired and associated themselves together for the purpose of selling Ruwart's land to Lincoln. Institute at the unconscionable. This land, he said, has been held at $1000 an acre by Ruwart for several years, a price regarded by Peters as greatly in excess to its value and the charge of Scheme to Get Borrow.
Upon learning of the deal, in connection with Lincoln University, Representative Moore who had sponsored the University bill stated that it would be intended to see that those responsible for the land deal were dealt with by the state, and that proceedings were instituted to recover excess money paid to Moore introduced a resolution in the Moore introduction for an investigation of the sale of the land which has resulted in the board of Curators filling a suit in the Circuit Court of Cole County to recover the excess money the Moore said a few days ago that he would insist on a thorough investigation regardless of whom it may hurt.
The petition also contained the charges that Roward's representations in the case were false and known to be false when he made them, concluding with a prayer for rejection of the contract and return of the price.
Filing of this suit follows a long series of maneuvers among State officials which began May 14, when Gov. Hyde decided after a visit to Lincoln University that too much had been paid to Roward by the Attorney-General Barrett to "bring appropriate suite" for the return of the money skipped to the employment of Peter. An inquiry into the deal by the first exiting session of the Legislature disclosed that (Cook had received $8,000 of the $22,000 paid to Roward, as commission for putting over the deal.

WASHINGTON, D. C. Feb. 6.—President Warren G. Harding has appointed Arthur G. Froe of West Virginia as Recorder of Docks for the District of Columbia.
Mr. Froe's nomination came as a complete surprise to the colored citizens of the country because he has not figured out national politics. The former officer of Representative Capuchin of Welch, W.

It was through the influence of Senator Elkins that Mr. Froe was appointed to this position.

It is generally believed that Mr. Froe will be confirmed by the Senate without any trouble as he is reputed to be a "clegman."

WAMINGTON, D. C. Feb. 8. — developments of the last few days have opened the eyes of the Republicans to the poor, political tactics that have been resorted to, so far as Colored citizens are concerned.
It has been discovered that while White Republicans were nothing like the people had hoped would be done in the matter of recognition and justice, what has been done is so little known in effective places that the schism is "fosted in the shuffle."
"This situation is distressing those who are opposed to the idea of shipying the destiny of the party," it is pointed out that some of the criticism against President Murdock and the Administration would be tempered if the people were more officially informed about some of the things that are going on.
The situation, just what will be done in this direction, remains to be seen. "It remains one of Nero fiddling while Rome burns," remarked one observing citizen.

Harrison, Norwalk 30 years old, was taken last night from the sheriff of Hot Springs County and two deputies and lynched by a mob said to have numbered 260 men.
Harrison had been accused of uppearing half masked into an automobile in which there were school girls. He was taken from the sheriff as he was being moved to a jail to move him for safe keeping to Hot Springs. No resistance were offered by the sheriff nor his deputies after being confronted by the mob.
The victim was taken about two miles down the road and hung to a tree and his body riddled with bullets.
It is generally believed that Harrison was demoted at the time his keys were committed, so arrests have been made as the sheriff have failed to identify any of the mob.

It was the next day that the body was discovered hanging from a link of a tree by some children on their way to Sunday school, who were not involved in the crime. The victim was not noted among the colored people following the discovery of the body as Thurber was well known here and was employed at the grocery store of Pen Trilims. The body is surrounded the affair. The whites deny any knowledge of the murder. The sheer sheriff declares that no arrest had been made of Thurber so far as he knew. The police have not been able to find what had happened until Sunday. A note was taken to a tree near the body sitter that Thurber has insulted a school teacher. No other information has come to light about the crime has come to light at this. It looks as though nothing will be done in the case.

CRISPUS ATTUCKS CALL
Sent Out By The National Equal Rights League Of Boston
Special
BOSTON, Mass. Feb. 7—Last year the National Equal Rights League began the effort for a countrywide observance of the death of Clarence Atkinson, a National Colored American boy, a gravest for liberty for public observance. We now renew the effort. The United States of America came into being not as a piece of adventure but as war of conquest, but by sacrifice and the spilling of human blood for the greatest principle of liberty in government because "all men are born equal." The invaluable rights of them were swift down in defense of robbery and revolution.
Rodeline then the glory to the element, who spilt the first blood, and the claim to equal liberty of the race who gave the first martyr of the fight!
The honor of producing the pro-martyr for this Republic, belongs solely to us. Angela-saxonism says that "Blood is the price of Liberty." Since we produced the first martyr and we alone have been enslaved and are now denied equality, held in contempt by Americans of lighter hue, the call comes, in pride of race, to publicly observe the death of Crispins Attucks, who fell facing British soldiers leading a band of white men, on State street, Boston, March 5, 1770, scaling on American birth-right.
By that first blood we attained foundation title to all of liberty and rights. We need to tell our rising generation of this ground title to citizenship to assure the middle-aged. We need universally to celebrate this date that we may cause our white fellow Americans to realize our real original Americanism and our claim to every right
Well may there be added the way and principle, the black man's fight for rights under the black man's autopsies, and descent of "Chisholm Federation" may be held by committee of our race formed now to observe the 105 Anniversary of Frederick Douglass's birth, or formed at these Douglas celebrations on Feb 14th, these committees to be permanent for race classes, becoming observances and any race defence which they may serve becoming local branches of the races own national legal rights League.

NEW YORK, N. Y.

Mabel Normand in Mach Semett's "Molly O."
Loops Weber's picture: "What Do Men Want?" will be the feature at the Criterion Theater this Sunday. It is a story that thrills and chills teachers. Exceptionally broad in its right edge, it touches the "right edge" in every man and makes him think and do the things that are really worth while. A powerful picture with a wonderful theme is this great American drama of the hunt for happiness.
On Thursday the Criterion will present the massive spectacle "Quo Vudla." It covers a period in Rome, in the middle of the first century, when the Empire, tootling and the new faith, Christianity, was spreading throughout the Eastern City. The spectator will see Christians devoured by lions; see Urgas, a chimpanzee savage; ball to earth; see the mighty Iberian chariot races, the ancient tradition of gladiators fighting and slaying each other, and the weakening Nero fledgling and make merry while Rome bursts to the ground.
Mable Normand in "Molly O'D" will be the Mack Sennett feature at the Teatro Sanremedio theater and monday It is the story of the pretty girls' fight for a place in the world, and a happiness that she could attain she permitted environment come her, Molly O. The heroine, is too jolly a character to be able to keep genuine fun out of her life in spite of her 'extremely jathetic' position. Nevertheless the story of her courtship and marriage, the failure of the union and then the reconciliation, is as dramatic and thrilling a story as has ever been placed on the screen.
Alice Calhoun as Lady Babbie in "The Little Minister" will be featured on Wednesday and Thursday. Babbie the appy girl had a faculty of turling up at the most unexpected times and aiding the poor. She was a mystery in Thrums. Some called her a witch, but she had a way of bowtching the hearts of those around her. Gavin Dishart, the Little Minister, fell victim to her power against his will.
The story is intense, dramatic and has many spectacular scenes but above all the simplicity of the lives of the poor weavers in the village of Thrums.
**QUEEN OF SHEBA"—OLYMPIA**
Next to the thrilling charlot race between Sheba and Yahshi, which comes to the Olympia Theatre next Thursday and Friday, perhaps the manmoth William Fox encircle the Queen of Sheba is the great battle between the armies of Solomon and his bribee Adonilah, with Sheba's army coming up at the crucial moment to gare the day. There is soon after some of great beauty and magnificence in this big production—the marriage festival at the court of King Armunh the arrival at Solomon's court; the day of races and games, including the charlot race between the Queen of Sheba and the Princess Yusht; the arrival of Solomon, and of Solomon the little Prince of Sheba; the arrival of Solomon and Adonilah and the thetic final departure of the Queen of Sheba for her realm, Betty Rhyne is voluptuously royal and, beautiful Queen of Sheba, and encracts the exciting, rule impressively besides showing great during and skill in the charlot race.
This Saturday, the Olympia will present Bert Lyttel, in "Alias" Ladyfriends." On. Sunday. Jack Hoxie will be seen in "Double O."
"Edythe Steeling in 'The Stranger of Canyon Valley,' will be featured at the Casino Theater this Saturday. The story has been pictured from a well-known novel and, its unusual theme lies in the fact that its heroine is a Western freebooster—a young girl from a small country, toting a pair of six-shooters and soaking but one objective, vengeance upon a band of outlaws who have murdered her father and burned her home.
Oil Sunday, the Casino will present Dick, Hylton it "Fearless Dick." The hero is a man hunter who never fails to bring back his man. On this occasion he was sent into one of the widest counties of the far west to run down a daring band of train bark fox. How he accomplished this and son the farthest daughter of the West is one of the most interest, compelling dories screened by a Western company in many a day.

Three great characters, because of their courage, patriotism and hope.
Lincoln: "This country cannot stand, half slaves and half free."
Douglass: "Your applause means nothing to me when your people are cruelly treating my people in the South."
Roosevelt: "I cannot close the door of hope against any man."
Despite the statement of some people who argue that the passage of the Anti-lynching Bill by the House of Representatives is meaningful, or a political sop, we can but see that it is a step in the right direction.
To accomplish anything, there must be a beginning. When a thing begins, the proper thing to do is to note its progress. That is what we have done with reference to the Anti-lynching Bill. Especially so since the convening of the Sixty-Seventh Congress. We have noted steady progress all along. Step-by-step every inch of the ground was well covered.
The sponsors of the Bill had always before them the pledge of the Republic's party's platform, as a matter of duty, the endorsement of President Harding as a matter of right, and the backing of Attorney General Daugherty as a matter of constitutionality. So one can see that every step of the way, the Bill, by every rule of the game, was protected.
It was a bluff on the part of those who voted for the bill, their hands have been called. If it was a political sop, the public likes the feast. If it was a political debt, a nice payment has been made.
The Senate has all the backing and encouragement that the House of Representatives had—and too, the Senate has the support of 230 Representatives who voted for the Bill in the House.
We are not so much interested in the motives, as we are in the results. The results thus far have been a step in the right direction.
WEAK, BUT STRONG
We are as a rule prone to complain of our weakness when it comes to the participation in the politics of the City, State and Nation. And while it is true that we are weak, yet we are strong. This paradoxical statement is shown thus: Weak when divided, strong when united.
Surly we as a group have one common cause for which we are fighting. Can't we get together?
Just now, there is quite a division among parly leaders at the City and State. There is likely to be some quarrelling and fussing done before the primary election. Let us play the part of wise men and women—get together.
We are only weak when we will to be weak. If we will to be strong, then we are strong.
Lynching has been reported from two Southern States during the past week.
In the Arkansas case, it seems that the people in the community in which the lynching occurred, was just a bit blood-thirsty for a chance to pull off a piece of the popular sport, when they lynched an idiot. But that is just what a mob did in Arkansas last week.
In the Mississippi case, the outside world will probably never know the cause of the lynching. Sufficient to say however, that it was not a case of rape or attempted rape.
These two lynchings since the House of Representatives passed the Articles taking Bill, is all the more reason why the Senate should speed up the measure that the law may become operative.
With the appointment of Attorney Arthur G. Free of Welch, W. Va., to the Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia, the two big political jobs generally given to clerkenmen are filled—but only one of them, Recorder of Deeds, by a colored man. The Registry of the Treasury was recently filled by the appointment of awhite man—by a Republican, President.
For the latter position, President Wilson first nominated a colored man from Oklahoma, who declined to accept the position; and then Mr. Wilson nominated an Indian from the same state who was confirmed and served.
It is significant that both of the appointments, that of Register of the Treasury and Recorder of Deeds, were made by President Harding within fifteen days after the self-styled colored "Legislative Relief Committee" had sent out its long winded boast to the effect that it was in close touch with "Senators. Representatives and Republican leaders" and was wielding influence upon them for the giving of the two phrases above mentioned to colored then.
This "legislative Relief Committee" is a self-appointed one and consists of a number of political plum seekers who maintain "hegemony" at 1236 Pennsylvania.
It is also significant that this "Legislative Relief Committee" was not consulted concerning these appointments. The newly appointed register is a white man and hence this committee was not consulted about, his appointment; while the newly appointed recorder, Mr. Pros, was not known by them.
The manner of the appointment of these men, to these positions, is clear, evidence of the insignificance of these plants—self-styled leaders of the Race. They are parasites on the race, and are simply hungry job-hunters.
Mr. Froe comes to the reckership with a clean record and merits the position to which he has been called. He has served the race faithfully in West Virginia and comes to the capital of the Nation as a means to a larger life of service. He has come up from an humble farmer boy by his own efforts. His clean-cut, perservering character will be an inspiration to many in the capital city. The Race has been recognized in the appointment of Arthur G. Froe — The Washington Tribune.
The Governor of Mississippi has been sued for seduction. This time, it happened to be a white girl. We are wondering what are those Colored girls thinking who have been seduced by those "Chivalrous gentlemen" of Mississippi all these many years? A few suits against such men as the Governor of the State for seduction of Colored girls would be in order right through here.
Remember, when two dogs are fighting over a bone, the third can get the benefit of the light by using a little judgment.
Don't be too quick to jump into a "band wagon" as it does not always land at the goal toward which it is headed.

CAN YOU ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS
Negroes have on deposit in St. Louis banks $500,000 or more. No Negro depositor to the writer's knowledge is a director or stockholder in any bank involved, since he can buy in a bank if you could be a banker or director? Wait a minute, don't say "No" too quickly. Don't you hear many of your friends say they had considerable savings in the defuser Night and Day Bank? Why not bring incident pressure to bear on Negroes involved, since they could capital to start a bank? We look something but it is not money or character! What is it?
A recent paper shows that there is one white doctor for perry 500 people. In St. Louis there are about twenty Negro doctors for 70,000 Negroes, or one in every 1,000 people. They are courteous, well trained, and can serve as well as any in their profession. They should be kept busy all the time but most of them are poorly patronized. Why? There are eighteen Negro lawyers who have passed the same state examinations as like a lot of all applicants. THEY CAN DO AS MUCH IN THE COURTS AS WHITE LAWYERS AND CHARGE LESS! They can adjudicate evil cases with equal satisfaction. Why do Negroes tail to support them?
Negroes operate seven drug stores, two large grocery stores, two halter dashboards, one coffee and tea company, all will be locked. Do you patronize them? They buy from the same whole sale duplexes, the same services at the same prices, their potteries. They WANT and NEED a trade. Why don't you buy from many other lines of Negro business enterprise could be listed and similar questions asked except for lack of space. Negroes like other racial groups must realize the value of team work to spirit the economic solution of the Negro in cars and elsewhere will come only third. Pull all together. Will you pull all harder for the town Negroes in St Louis this year?

Comment
By G. U. Cloud
Why Fight
Why should there, be contention amongst leading colored men as to who is the Leader? Does it make any real difference to the general cause? Is it not true that all leaders are deriving a certain amount of personal profit from their position? What is the question any way—is it one of doing the greatest possible good, thru the entire race or is it a question of the man getting what he can for himself?
Mr. Garvey.
As no man does things without-making mistakes, big mistakes when doing big things—so has Mr. Garvey done big things and made big, mis-matched things to a casual, but despite his efforts, the grim Mr. Garvey is the organizing genius this century. He has certainly reached the consciousness and obtained a degree of loyalty from a class of our people that is one and no thing has ever been able to do before. Whether he can use the organization which he has built, or an open question. His word enemy cannot take away from his credit for what he has done. His best friend cannot adequately predict what he can do. The whole race needs him—had—and not for what he may be able to do, but for what he has proven he can do.
Mr. DeBols
Dr. DuBois' has touched the intellect of the leading thinkers of the world in a manner it has never been touched before by a. Colored person. Many people do not love him, most who cannot read his work or heard him speak. He has especial appeal to the type of human being which knows no race. An intellectual can read Wells, or DuBois, Rousseau of DeMaupassant and according to his desires, appreciate the maturity of either without any thought of the future. It is entirely incidental to such people that DuBois is advocating a certain racial issue. We need all the respect of all types of men.
Dr. Moton
The white south is a fact. Conditions for our people in the south are bad—almost intolerable for some of us. Whether, we may change them by means or another is a question Diprints. We fighting certainly will not. A man live white or colored, must for a time anyway, conform to conditions he meets there. We must have leaders down there who can conform to custom, but make their work count. Tuskegee. The final glory of its president's leadership until the next generation. In the meantime, he is getting results, and we must have results.
The Press
Colored newspaper run the "full gainst from those entirely owned by reactionary white persons to the independent, hard-fighting, clear thinking, hard-pressed, purely race justice. Every one that is hard-pressed, something. Every one of them is either well-organized for its idea of what is the best, interest of all the race or for the greatest possible profit for the individual which may control it. But few are guided by common policies, thought out and vindicated. Nevertheless they are all having a direct beyond the imagination of the casual observer.
Suppose?
What would be the result of the result of DuBois, the organizing genius of Garvey, diplomacy of Moton and the inclemable weight and influence of Colored newspapers were all coordinated, combined, thinking and working each in its own line but all collectively for the general good? A lie is lynched in Georgia for even supporting but if it should come to pass the States of America, our common country, world revolutionize human relationships all over the world, lead the world in all lines of civilized endeavor, and set a basis upon which possibility would most certainly build a structure of international understanding. Our players could play no part. Our duty to the world is so big it staggers the intellect of elements necessary to its proper performance, but we so far have lacked the ability to bring them together. Hydrogen and oxygen, separate, are useless to a man suffering the pangs of thirst.
Job Advocates
How many colored persons have read in them they could get hold of about the Dynegy. It would be worth a million dollars to the colored race to know the answer, correct. Every man with sufficient intelligence have wanted to read it has profited by the statements of its oppressors, thing else. If advocates of lynch law have sank low as to be able to command no more intelligence than has been shown by their leaders in opposing the anti-lynching bill we have nothing much to worry about, as potential victims. As American citizens we are insulted and disgusted a whole lot more by the evidence that our congress has members of such deplorable sincity even than by the fact that we unrepresentative and criminal members of leading race have committed certain crimes against us. If the south generally can furnish better grade of intelligence than have been exhibited by the enemies of the Dynegy Bill we feel that it is about time something is done about it. It is a greater national disgrace than we thought possible.

D. K. WILLIAMS TELLS U. OF CHICAGO STUDENTS ABOUT HIS BIG CHURCH
Associated Negro Press
CHICAGO, HI, Feb. 8. The members of the University of Chicago aurallest Friday, a remarkable story of the development of an unusual Negro church. Dr. L. K. W. Williams, pastor of Olivet Baptist Church spoke in the divinity chapel to a standing room audience on the subject "Making the Church a Community Asset." His teachers reminded him with invocation that not only are women not to hear a Negro speak in the chapel but also because of the message which he brought. The strength of the message was that it presented Olivet Baptist Church, not as a shell, a mere organization, a house, but as a living and working organism among our people, a people "with living struggling souls. It presented Olivet as a man, the task of saving the souls of all men in our profession, both mental, economic and political by taking load of the problems that have to do with their every day lives.
After giving a brief sketch of the growth of the church, its organization and purpose, that purpose being to preach Jesus Christ and to administer to the physical and spiritual needs of the people, he asked, "What thing?" He showed just how people respond to the influence of the church. He showed the influence of the church on the various phases of the life of the community, for example on politics on housing, on family life, and above on the personal life. How men actually can cultivate a Catholic church, how God is brought to men and how men are lifted to God.
When he came to the conclusion the hearers, men and women, students and teachers bent forward to catch the significance of his words. He said that a church must do something more than administer to the physical needs of men, that a church must have a message. $p_1$ its message the church must extend other organizations. He said that the church should believe in God. He said that Olivet believes in both. That Olivet has a morale. Then he closed with a prayer that God may give us a thirst for him and power to find him, that he may unite our hearts and hands in service of God and man.
Dr. Williams, showed the contrast between the Olivet of 1916 when he came to the pastorate and now. They had 20 departments, now there are 520 officers as against 80; 8 paid workers then, 30 now, property valued at $75,000 then, $250,000 now, yearly income $100,000 then $100,000 now, medical valued the following social service activities: Bureau of Information Free Employment Agency - Working Men's Home.

SIX OF SUCCESS
Associated Negra Press.
WASHINGTON, D.C. F. Feb. 8.
The students of Howard University had the privilege of listening to Mr. Roger W. Babson, President of the Babson's "Statistical Organizaton. Wellesley Hills, Mass., with branch offices in London and several American cities. Thursday January 26. at the noon exercises held in the University chapel. Among the interesting things discussed in the presentation of the students in the course of his address was his explanation of what he called the "Six I's of Success" Industry, Initiative, Intelligence, Intensity and Interest and Integrity."
Mr. Habison made a very interesting explanation of the Fix I's of Success, to the students assembled at the noon day exercises. Industry, the first I's of success, must be trained hard work. But Industry is not sufficient in itself, another quality must be added which is Integrity, the second I of success. Then one may have these two and not be successful, he must add another "I" which is intelligence. Even these three are not sufficient; one must have Initiative, the fourth I of success, which is intelligence in one's efforts which is the fifth "I" of success. Then with all these there must be Interest, the sixth "I" of success.
Mr. Babson was invited to speak to the student body of the Howard University by President J. Stanley Durkee His interesting and practical remarks received the applause of both Faculty and students of the University.

NATIONAL NEGRO LEAGUE FACES BIG MILAGE
Meeting of Moguls Planned With An Idea of Shortening Railroad Jumps. Forecast of Coming Campaign
By Dave Wyatt
When the Western circuit magnets of the N, N, League meet to arrange the playing schedule for the coming season, the gathering may not resemble what most folks think a peace conference should be, and it is more than likely that there will be the usual scramble for holiday dates upon the opening weekend of home, and the usual vain efforts of magnets to manufacture the ideal schedule will probably be exerted. But in one thing there is certain to be harmony. Every magnate who attends will agree that a schedule of shortest mileage possible be adopted, and in order to be safe all will have to be traced some of them probably will sacrifice some of their other desires.
For, be it known that the present interstate passenger fares surcharges and the like has caused the club owners to study the railroad maps more diligently than they ever did before. Transportation has always been an issue, and the club's craft of the N. X. League. The average club of the circuit travels between seven and eight thousand miles on a ninety game schedule during a season, and with 15 and 16 men the increased rate of travel means that every club contributes live and six live and six live road coffers now than at any other time in the past. One of the club owners, in contemplating the additional drain on his bank roll on travel between Kansas City and Pittsburgh, leaned back in his chair and signed as a guest. And coming. It's too bad the clubs in the league are not within walking distance of each other."
The Western Class it should enjoy a radhot race this coming season. "Rulls" Foster and his combination of Giants and new corners should have no trouble in leading the league at the finish, although it will not be a walk away for them by any means. Next to the American Giants, the Detroit Stars should be put up in the running. Petway, and his men will be game fighters all through the season, and it is not going to be easy for the Foster club to shake them off. Indians have not rounded out a brief standoff with their short stop and third baseman on the shelf is in the speculative class, Jim Taylor has been doing a lot of hustling to strengthen the Cleveland combination for next year, and if things break just fair, the Cleveland bench look good enough to cop the third place honor. The Cubans will make trouble for all clubs as they swing around the circuit, and may put up a fight for third place or fourth place. Pittsburgh, may set a leap pace in the coming season, and the wealth of young material, and youngsters scrap fast and furious in April and May and June. Conditions at St. Louis are unsettled and if entered in the coming season's race its a mere matter of speculation at to how

they might finish or what players they would have. Viewed from all angles, a fair distribution of the talent at hand should make for a wonder. A skill from a financial and playing standpoint should bring out a mighty-hot race.

NATION'LURBAN LEAGUE HAS ITS ANN'L MEETING
Special to the Argus.
NEW YORK, Feb. 8—The National Urban League held its Annual Meeting on Wednesday last in New York at the Russell Sage Foundation Building, at which time members of the Board for the term expiring 1925 and officers and Standing Committees for the ensuing year were elected. The meeting was opened by L. Hollingworth Wood, president who stated that the work of the League is bringing the forces into more harmonious relations bearing fruit and that the year just concluded in every way the most successful year in the League's activities. Eugene Kinkle Jones, Executive Secretary, presented his report of the League's work during 1921 and Chas. foundation of the Christian religion was forcefully, brilliantly, and engagingly manifest in the life of General Armstrong and in the life of his great successor, Dr. Hollis B. Frissell." He颁发了 a warm tribute to the service Doctor Frissell readened so abundantly in this and other countries." Wece said he said, "the element of faith in one another."
Sympathy and Cooperation brings Results
Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute and a trustee of Hampton, quoted J. H. Oldham's recent statement, made before the International Missionary / Conference at Mohok, that Hampton Institute is doing more to influence work in the missionary field than any other single effort.
Dr. Moton also paid tribute to the service which General Armstrong, Doctor Frissel, Booker T. Washington, and their associates had rendered through fifty-old, years to education not only in the United States, but throughout the world, in liberating men's souls by working in faith and co-operation with unprivileged peoples, "Doctor Frissel," he said, "believed in men and believed that, when they observed others, had faith and belief in each other, they would work together, for each other, with each other, to bring forward in a real sense the kingdom of 'God in the earth.'
No race, no class, no people were too mean or too poor or too black or too red or too brown for General Armstrong's belief and sympathy and his willingness to help them. He rejoiced in the fact at one time that Hampton had a girdle around the world, composed of its student body—Polynesian, American Negro, Chinese, American, glad to be of service to distant nations in distant parts of the globe." W. Cameron Forbes, well-known banker of Boston, and trustee of Hampton, spoke on "The Problem of the Philippines" and the Rev Chester B. Emerson of Detroit, another trustee, paid a tribute to General Armstrong as a door of good deeds.
Muscle, Shoals Development Is Endorsed
The Board of trustees of Hampton Institute sent a telegram to Secretary Weeks, urgently requesting him "in the interest of the agricultural and industrial development of the South strongly to recommend to Congress the establishment of the Muscle Shoals development." The trustees present included George Foster Beaudy and Clarence H. Kelsey of New York. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee, W. Cameron principal of Hampton, Alexander B. Forbes of Boston, James E. Gregg of Boston, and Emmanuel Darling of Hampton, Chester B. Emerson of Detroit, Samuel C. Mitchell of Richmond, and Henry Wilder Foote of Cambridge.

A. M. E. MINISTERIAL ALLIANCE
The A. M. E. Ministerial Alliance is being brought face to face with more new and perplexing questions that need to be solved, than ever before. While we love and cherish the doctrine, and policy of our churches of whatever denomination they may be get each God-called minister realizes that his parish has no particular boundary in the world, and World is my parish". Some of the questions that come up every week in our alliance are social, moral, economic and civic. In the judgment of the A. M. E. Alliance, in order to meet these questions properly organic union is absolutely necessary. No one church can stand upon any great peak, north or south of the United States, and majestic that peak may be and corral the wondering sheep from the other three angles. The ministers of St. Louis in the different Alliances have interested themselves in the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill and in the speech made by Mr. H. B. Harvosm, the 17th of January but if we were called upon to some particular thing that meant for us to be a part of the people, as a race and as a unite of this great milion (so called) there would have to be a mighty getting together.
This year the program 'committee',
Rev W. H. Peck, J. C. Hicks and
John L. Williams have outlined a
systematic course of study for the
alliance for the entire year. The
subjects assigned us follows: 1st week
"Life of Christ" by Rev. John L. W.
Williams; 2nd, "Hymnology" by Rev. W. H.
Peck; 3rd, "Dystomatic Theology" Rev.

POEMS AND ADVOCAT TOPIC
Our Ministry of Comfort and Help.
1. The Shunamnite's Hospitality to Elisha (vv. 8-11).
1. Its occasion (v. 8). A wealthy woman of Shunem, observing that Elisha passed continually by her house in his journeys, was moved with compassion toward him. She determined according to her ability to supply her needs.
2. Its nature (vv. 8-11). "She constrained him to eat bread" (vv. 8-9). As a result of her earnest treaty, as often as he passed by her house he turned in to eat bread. She received a prophet in the name of a prophet.
11. Elisha Endeavors to Repay Her Kindness (vv. 12-17).
1. He offers to ask a favor from the king or head of the army (v. 13). This offer impides that Elisha had influence at the royal court. The woman's reply shows her truly to be a great woman. She did not desire to change the calm and quiet of her home for a place even in the royal court. Her answer also shows that her motive in extending generosity to the prophet was entirely unselfish, purely because he was God's propher. 2. Elisha announces the giving of a soil to her (vv. 16, 17). Through inquiry of Gehazl it was discovered that this woman was childless. So the prophet-made known to her that in about a year from that time she should experience the joy of a mother. III. The Coming of Sorrow to the Shunamite's Home (vv. 18-21).
The child which brought joy to her home, was suddenly taken away. How many homes are like this? Scarcely do we begin to enjoy life until death enters and snatches away some loved one. The cause of his death was probably sunstroke, for the heat of the sun at harvest time in this country is very intense. When the boy complained of his head, the father sent him home to his mother. By noon the child died and the mother laid him upon the bed of the man of God. Faith prompted her to do this. She did not make preparation for burial, but for restoration to life (Heb. 11.35).
IV. The Mother Goose to Ellaahs
(yy. 22-28).
When one is in trouble or sorrow the best place to go is to the man, of God who is able to give counsel and comfort. Happy is the one who in the days of prosperity and sunshine has so related himself to God and His prophets that he can have help and sympathy in time of trouble.
1. She took hold of Elisha's feet (v. 27). This was the eastern way of enforcing a petition. She passed by Gehzal. She would not be content with the servant when the master could be reached.
2. She chided the prophet (v. 28). "Did I desire a son?" This implies that it would have been better not to have had a child than to have lost him so soon.
V. The Child Restored (vv. 29-37).
1. Gehazil's fruitless errand (vv. 29-31).
He hurried away and placed the prophet's staff upon the child's face, but it did not revive. Perhaps the laut lay in Gehazil—his lack of faith. The woman seemed to perceive his lack; she would not trust him. She would not go until Elshisa was willing to go along. This fruitless errand of Gehazil shows the worthlessness of the forms of religion when used by those who have no faith in them.
2. Elisha's efficient service (vv. 32-37). He went to the house where the dead child was. (1) He prayed (vv. 33). He knew that no one but God could help, so he closed the door, shutting all others out. Our service to men should be preceded by prayer. (2) He strained himself upon the child (vv. 34). He brought his warm body into touch with the cold body of the child. God blesses and says through the warm touch of those who are in touch with Him. After we pray we should get into actual touch with the dead in trespasses and slain. God's mother is using the world is through the ministry of "saved men and women.
A.Daily Prayer.
Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sin; let them not have dominion over me; then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression. Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight. O Lord, my strength, and my Redeemer.
—Psalm 19:13-14

Mrs. M. J. Hald-Hunter, the evangelist, finished her sojourn at this church Wednesday night. It was a very successful one. She has had good crowds at every meeting and has been preaching heavy sermons on every occasion. Sunday afternoon she spoke to women only. Wednesday night was called Mens' Night, and she set them on fire. It is very wonderful how she can preach so hard 'night' and night out without rest. She has made a big hit in Webster.
