COLORED MAN IS SEATED IN THE CON.CON.
Benjamin Franklin Bowles Of St. Louis Takes Oath Of Office To Help Build A New Constitution For This Old State.
By John Jos. Reed
Special To the St. Louis Argus
JEFFERSON CITY., Mo. May 23
The Constitutional Convention was
called to order Monday, May 17th by
Secretary of State Charles U. Becker
in the House of Representatives at
the State Capitol.
One of the most picturesque-gatherings any one's eyes ever beheld was witnessed non this auspicious occasion to anyone; that could have been here to have seen this august body of men when they came to order at the rap of the gavel; and what was more pleasing to my eyes was when I beheld in person the only Negro in this great gathering—how dignified he took his seat and how graciously he answered to his name when the Clerk called "B. F. Bowles" He answered "B. F. Bowles" he in "Present." At this point, I will say that every Negro in the state of Missouri should have been at the Capitol to have witnessed the sacred point when he held up his hand and took the oath of office to carry out the law as he was sent to do.
Missouri is to be especially proud of the fact that St. Louis is in the confines of the grand old State of Missouri, and had, the honor of sending one of our Race to take his place in the Hall of Fame to safeguard the laws of the future Constitution of Missouri that will stand as a monument to Hon. B. F. Bowles when he has been called from labor to reward and an of the same opinion as the people of Missouri. We man we have one that, can from all angles stand on the floor of our Constitutional Convention and with the air of dignity and from a point of intellect—hold his own.
I was indeed glad to witness this grand character when he was voting on a president for the Constitutional Convention. Missouri is fast coming to the front with her noble men and St. Louis has broken the ice and why don't some of our larger citizens wake up and put her men to the front. The Negro must play his part now if he of she ever expects to amount to anything in the future. St. Louis has elected Mr. Moore; the first candidate; St. Louis elected Hon. Walsh M. Moore as one of her Representatives, and last but not least elected Hon. B. F. Bowles, to the Constitutional Convention.
Keep the good work up St. Louis and before the end of time—I mean this next Election—St. Louis. Negro men and women will show to the balance of the state that she will have to say as to just who will be elected as our eyes are on the men from now on.

DYER HOPEFUL ANTI-MOB LAW BEING PASSED
DYER HOPEFUL ANTI-MOB LAW BEING PASSED
Sub-Committee Makes Unfavorable Report. Bill May Be Amended. Majority Believe It Constitutional.
WASHINGTON. D. C. May 26. Despite the fact that the sub-committee of the Judiciary Committee of the Senate failed to recommend the Dyer Anti-brushing Bill for passage, much hope was expected that the bill will be favorable acted upon by the committee of the whole when up for consideration.
Iver On The Job
Representative L. C. Dyer of St. Louis seemed very much concerned about the matter, and was in constant consultation with party leaders, speaking of the actions of the sub-committee in failing to recommend the bill, Mr. Dyer said: "We expected this action from the subcommittee. Senator Borah has never been looked upon as friendly to the measure and he, with the two Democrats constitute a unity of that sub-committee. I am sure that when the committee meets to consider the report of the sub-committee that a decision will be reached to report out the favorably and that it will be passed. There is no talk of redrifting the bill, but there is talk of doubt expressed by some as to the constitutionality of the bill, but those who have studied the measure, doubt as to wheather much improvement can be made. Mr. Dyer believes that the bill in its present form is constitutional, and his belief is shared by the majority of the members of Congress.

Special to the Argus.
NEW YORK, May 22 - Emile T Holley, president New York bay selected by Congressman Annsorge as a candidate for Annapolis is the most recent expected sacrifice by the Republican party to the southern mole which breathes fire and brimstone and lives on the raped bodies and blasted hopes of colored Americans. It is the most recent criminal Board that Holley failed in the entrance examination
The colored candidate for commission in the United States Navy took his examination at the New York custom house in April, and the findings of the examining board were made known May 15. Holley stated that he found the exapiations in English history and that he had some difficulty with mathematics. It is a well known fact that any student capable of matriculating for college can pass the West Point or Annapolis examinations.

$37.000 MARK REACHED IN ORPHAN HOME DRIVE
Much jubilation was expressed in the camp of the workers of the St. Louis Orphans' Home, and Community workers over the splendid results of the May Day effort. $714.68 was added to the fund through effort of the workers over the May Day celebration. This amount brings the total collection up to $37,007 and puts the fund well over the half-way mark, so far as the amount is to be gotten from colored people is concerned.
The campaign for the new building fund is to be reorganized, with a large number of the old workers, carrying on every team just as the very start. Volunteer workers are to be added to the forces, so as to give all who desire an opportunity to work for this most worthy cause.
As an evidence of the continued and growing interest of the community, the Board of Managers point to the over 1000 persons who gathered at the home celebration when the corner stone was laid under the anges of the Masons. This was an inspiring sight to all and as an aggrievement for the success of the home for little children of our city.
Lay foundations with facts.

ANTI-LYNCHING BILL FACTOR IN THE PRIMARIES
Indiana And Pennsylvania Negroes Help To Nominate Men For The Senate Who Indorse The Bill.
Associated Negro Press.
WASHINGTON, D. C. May 24—Gifford Pinnot, pinched for Governor of Pennsylvania, following the nomination of Albert J. Reveridge for Senator in Indiana, defeating Senator New, has caused conservative Republicans of the nation's capital to "sit up and take notice." With November nominations rounding into form, candidates for office yet to be nominated which includes Senata Delaware, New York, West Virginia, and other states where Negro votes are an important factor, are whistling tones of despair rather than satisfaction.
The Associated Negro Press is in receipt of direct information from Indiana, concerning the attitude of Colored voters. This information comes from an unbiased source, and frankly explains the attitude of Colored voters. Republican candidates with Colored constituents, are urged to "listen, and "give themselves accordingly."
Indiana Negroes felt more cordial to Senator New than to former Senator Beveridge but Beveridge chided the party for failure to pass the Dyer Anti-Lynchning Bill and defended her bill against the threat of the police hate if elected." This condition, together with disgruntled feelings on other national matters, caused thousands of Colored voters to remain at home "Unless the Republicans get busy" writes the A. N. P. informat, "thou sands of these people will vote the Democrat ticket next fall as a protest."
**Pinchot For Square Deal**
In the Pennsylvania Republican primaries, Gifford Pinchot, of Theodore Roosevelt's friendship, proves himself a strong candidate. In the primary, proved himself the demagogic politician. The Anti-Lichenbill Bill was an important factor in the primaries, as it will be in all subsequent primaries, and next fall's election. Alter ignored an inquiry with reference to his attitude on the bill and it is authoritatively claimed that he is against the strong endorsement for the bill, and declared, over his signature that he believes in the Roosevelt "square deal," and "all men up and some men down." This declaration, together with the late Pinehurst machine attitude on the civil rights bill, that failed passage, drove Colored voters straight to Pinchot for the thousands, to President Adlai Stevenson, to Robert J. Nelson is editor, in a remarkable prediction prior to the election, came out bold for Pinchot and declared he would be nominated.
**A Big Political Turn**
The entire turn of events points to an amazing political turn of events that will end, none can say where. Here in Washington, all can see things that will prove the "engaging methods" are giving away to earnest consideration of facts.
Can the old line methods hold? The latest primaries have answered, No, most emphatically. Will Colored American citizens "eat any old corn in the barnyard." Not that it can be noticed. There is no argument of the most cordial friend of Republican policies that could be 'advanced' which will cause voters in various states to decide change of front, and an absolute "hewing to the line of justice."
Lily-white policies of the party, "sleeping at the switch" on the Anti-Luciferous Bill, failure to make major appointments of Negroes, and an earnest effort to live up to the principles of the Constitution, which was promised in campaign speeches, have so discouraged both leaders and people, that the road of the future is filled with pain. The sentiment is reflected most depressingly in the editorial expression of newspapers, from one end of the country to the other.
"What's going to be done about it?" ask one. "By whom, the Republican party, or the people?" comes back the inquiry. "Beth," said the first. "Too deep for me," said the second. "Deep River," as goes the song.
NEGRO DELEGATE TO
LABOR FEDERATION
Special to the Argus
HANNIDAL, Mo. May 25—The Missouri State Federation of Labor has been in session here ever since Monday. There is a large delegation in attendance. Of that number, only one colored delegate answered the roll call. A. M. McKinney, a Postal Clerk of St. Louis is the man. Mr. McKinney has been the recipient of many courtesies while here.
Dyer Wires He Believes Mob Law Will Be Enacted
Special to the Argus.
WASHINGTON, D. C., May 26.
I have just sent the Associated Negro Press of Chicago, Ill., the following telegram:
"Answering your wire relative to anti-lynching bill, beg to advise that the Judiciary Committee of the Senate, after several meetings regarding it, postponed for further consideration for two weeks in order to have conferences between members of the Judiciary Committee of the Senate and of the House relative to meeting of objections and suggestions as to changes desired by the Judiciary Committee of the Senate. I believe that the two committees will get together upon the matter and I think a law will be enacted before this Congress ends.
L. C. DYER."
WALTHAL MOORE
IS A CANDIDATE
Representative From Sixth District Seeks Renomination On Republican Ticket On His Record. Other Negroes File For Office.
Among the aspirants for political preferment who have filed their declaration with the election commissioners of this city are:
WALTHALL M. MOORE for re-election to that State Legislature from the Sixth District.
Mr. Moore is a candidate for re-election to that office on his record.
It is acknowledged by all that he made a splendid record during the Fifty-first Session of the Missouri General Assembly. In recognition of that fact, it is hardly probable that he will be nominated. He filed an Republican, subject to the Republican primaries in August.
IRA DORSEY 19th Ward for constable from Fifth District. He is at present filing clerk in the circuit clerk's office which position he has held since January. LANGSTON HARRISON 6th Ward was the first to make his declaration as candidate for Constable in the Fourth District.
NAPOLEAN HAUBSTON 3522 Lawton, real estate dealer, lodge and churchman, has filed for Constable in the Fourth District. HARRISON has also filed for Constable in the Fourth District.
JUSTICE OF PEACE: Eli Taylor, lawyer, 3025 Lawton has filed for Justice of the Peace in the Fourth District.
They are two Justices, and two constables to be elected in the District. Negroes are expected to get the offices of Constables.
Rumor has it, that many other Negroes are to file for the offices of Constables in the District and indict them. The state attorney will be a free-for-all race in the Fourth District.
TENTH CAVALRY IS WITHOUT A CHAPLAIN
Retirement Of Scott Will Probably Result In A White Chaplain For Colored Regiment. No Colored Available And War Department Is Making No Appointments.
The following article was published recently in the U. S. Army Bulletin "The retirement of Chaplain Oscar J. W. Scott (colored). U. S. Army, on account of physical disability incident to the service leaves the 10th cavalry without a chaplain. Under the announced policy of the War Department of making no appointments of chaplains until the excess exscribed by the reduction of the Army to 150,000 is absorbed, no colored chapin to be available in the Scott's place. This will probably result in a white chaplain being assigned to duty with the 10th cavalry. If this is done, the experiment will be watched with interest for very many officers who have served with colored regiments have expressed the belief that the right kind of a white chaplain could be eminently successful in serving the Negro troops and at the same time could minister to the white officers and their families. Some commanding of officers of the Negro corps officially commented that such a detail be considered. At present the battalion of the 24th infantry, on duty at Fort Benning, as having religious ministry at the hands of a white chaplain, and the results have been very satisfactory."
Announcement is also made that the 9th Cadagry (Colored) "will in time be returned from the Philippines to Fort Meade, K. D.
The way for a young man to rise is to improve himself every way he can, never suspecting that anybody wishes to blinder him. Allow me to assure you that suspicion and jealousy never did help any man in any situation—Lincoln.
From what can Courage be derived? Consonance of worthiness then faith.
CITIZENS WANT A HIGH SCHOOL EAST OF GRAND
More Than Five Hundred Parents Meet At Central Baptist Church And Endorse Program En Masse. Central School Patrons Alliance Takes Leading Part. Charges School Board With Injustice Toward Colored Children. Resolutions Are Adopted.
More than five hundred citizens gathered at Central Baptist Church last Thursday night in a mass meeting in the interest of a new High School to be located east of Grand Avenue. The meeting was called to order by the Goe, E. Stevens pastor of the church and president of the Central School Patrons Alliance. The meeting was attended by a meeting and then introduced Atty. Hamer G. Phillips, chairman of a committee of the Alliance who told of the steps which the committee had taken in presenting their question to the School Board. Four propositions had been put up to the School Board by the organization, he said. 1. A new High School to be located in the city. 2. A return of the 7th and 8th grades to the district schools. 3. The establishing of an open air school for Negro children suffering with tuberculosis. 4. The establishing of a teachers college with its own principal and faculty separate and distinct from the Summer High School, and the removal of the Stoughton avenue portables from the campus. He stated that more than five thousand signatures embracing these propositions had been presented to the school board besides the endorsement of forty organizations, embracing fraternal, civic-political social and religious organizations; that the committee had been given ten minutes to preside the proposition; that the school Board and had been dismissed without being asked a question or without any comment.
Judge Moses M. Hartman of the Circuit Court, who presided for a long time over the Juvenile Court was the next speaker. He endorsed the Association program and pledge himself to work for the location of a new high school east of Grand Avenue. The next speaker was Paul B. Carr, the board chairman of Carr University of Lincoln University. She pictured the terrifically crowded condition at Summer High School and spoke of the poor facilities, with reference to the Teachers College, as well as the handlebars which the parents met in paying car care and buying furniture for their children while sending them to John Marshall School. He also met in Marshfield School experiment was costing the Negroes $20,000.00 per year in car fare and lunches, most of which they would be able to save if the 7th and 8th grades were in their own districts.
The next speaker was Afto. Geo. L. Vaughn who stated that the Negroes of the city were much displeased with the treatment which the school board had accorded them in that they had ignored the petitions presented by more than five thousand students and had announced that if would add 12 rooms to the present High School, without giving any consideration to the request made by so large a number of citizens. This statement was loudly cheered by the audience. Mr. Vaughn showed how the fact that the children attending the John, Marshall School were without supervision of either teachers or parents from two or more schools on their buses parled while going and returning on the street cars made it bad, moral conditions among so large a number of pupils who had reached the adolescent period of life.
Mrs. Sweeney, a white lady, who is prominent in political activities among women was the next speaker. She赦orsed the Association program and pledged herself to work in the interest of a new high school.
Judge Charles W. Holtcamp, of the Probate Court, was next introduced and endorsed the movement and pledged himself to do what he could to bring it about. He criticized the colored people because of not attending in larger numbers at the class meeting.
A letter was read from Mr. Edmund Keelin, collector of the city of St. Louis giving his endorsement of the movement and pledging himself to do what he could to bring about the securing of a new high school.
Resolutions
Adopted at a Mass Meeting on May 18, 1922, held at the Central Baptist Church. Ewing and Washington Area
WHEREAS, The Colored school population of our city has so greatly increased in recent schools and particularly in high schools have become so overcrowded as to greatly increase the physical and moral welfare of the children attending them as well as their proper educational training; and
WHEREAS, the removing of the eventa and eighth grades from all the grammar schools to the John Marshall school has entailed by par riding a great burden of expense and loss of time for hundreds of our children and exposed them in other serious ways; and
WHEREAS, the efficiency of the future teachers of our youth should be given an opportunity to equip them solves thoroughly for 'their work.'
RESOLED. That the Board of Education be urgently requested to provide for our children a suitable high school east of 'Grand avenue and west of Jefferson avenue in that extensive and congested district where

and schools are located and where the school is paying one to fifteen en greater number of high school children now live; and that the Board is requested also to return the children of the seventh and eighth grades now attending the John Marshall school to their respective districts.
RESOLVED. That the Board of Education be urgently requested to give us a teachers' college with its own separate faculty and that this school be articulated with some grade school for observation and practice; To provide an open air school for our physically defective children of the kind that has proven such a great blessing to others; and
To adopt a constructive policy of providing ample school accommodations in the particular sections of the city where our children live and avoid the winter when the school is closed, twelve rooms to Summer High School will mean.
RESOLVED: That the Board of Education be requested to grand to our Committee of the Central School Patrons Association a willing and adequate hearing so that the Board may be more fully informed as to the schools by the parents of the children. With the needs of the children thus more definitely known the Board will be better enabled to see that all of the children in all of the schools of our city shall receive the very best possible educational training. Respectfully submitted. The schools of large churches located in the district east of Grand Avenue were present and endorsed the movement: Rev. S. A. Moseley, pastor. Taharenbai Baptist Church; Rev. C. A. Williams, pastor St. Paul A. E. Church; Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor Mt. Zion Baptist Church; Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor Green Basildale Church; Father D. H. Clark, pastor All Saints Episcopal Church; Rev. Geo. E. Stevens, pastor Central Baptist Church, and Rev. J. K. Parker, pastor Pleasant Green Baptist Church. It was pointed out that five of the large grade schools attended by Negroes were located east of Grand Avenue, and one small school had been opened east of Grand avenue in the last three years. The schools named were L'Overture, Banneker, Dumas, Waring, Lincoln and Montgomery. It was shown that the grade schools west of Grand avenue were the Wheaton, and the Cottage Avenue and Simmons school. The last named being the only large grade school west of Grand avenue.
At the mass meeting and in nearly every group throughout the community expressions of displeasure at the action of the school board in failing to provide a new High School east of Grand Avenue are heard every day. It is pointed out that the failure to provide these facilities is preventing many students from receiving high education as the parents are unable to pay, car fare and provide lunches so long a period, whereas, many of the children would be in walking distance of the school east of Grand Avenue.
Crowded Conditions at Sumner
More than three hundred children will high school next autumn. The present building at Sumner equipped to accommodate seven hundred and fifty pupils. It has now nearly fourteen hundred. Class rooms are being held in the base meant where the lockers were formerly located and in the ends of the corridors. The lockers have been removed and are placed in the halls where the boys' lockers are in the passageway between the cool bba and the pile furnace. It was pointed out that the proposed twelve rooms as an addition to the present high school will be but a temporary measure, and will soon be filled by the natural increase and will be removed from the schools wing of Grand Ave. Everywhere there are expressions of disatisfaction on the part of the people and expressed determination to continue fighting for the new high school until the same is granted by the school board. It is said that another mass meeting will be called in a few days.
WHITE MEN DEBAUCHING COLORED WOMEN SHOULD BE STOPPED. SAYS JUDGE

GREENVILLE, N. C., May 24—After the trial of Miss Liceley Tinsley a young colored woman, who was convicted of manslaughter in the killing of N. B. Hoard, a white man, and was sentenced to two years in the penitentiary, Judge Manilin said: "I am convinced, after /carefully considering the evidence, that there would not have been a male accused of the murpittal had been retrained in this case. This perilous practice of white men debauching colored women is outragous and should be stopped. I cannot understand the moral depravity of some white men."

COL. CHAS. YOUNG
By Thps. Attains
Rejoice O' muse in such a theme,
Of nature's gift and God's own scheme
Twas he it was whom we chanced
to see.
With soul aglow and spirit free
The spell of such soul doth inspire,
With gentle force and inward fire;
With courtly meil and heroic charm,
He banished every ill alarm.
The magic of his power,
Withered in an April shower;
Could this be the part of nobility,
Oh! yet and more it was civility.
How glanced he with a boyish glee,
Or an unegged bird just set free;
Herein is centered all humanity,
The ideal of Christianity.
Unfettered is such souls by strife,
On this terrestrial ball or in the coming life.
In such a soul there's no repine,
But struggles to enrich mankind.

Eight Negroes have been lynched in the South during the past 10 or 15 days. The numbers that have been killed, assaulted and driven from their homes will never be a matter of public record.
One of the most unfortunate factors in connection with these lynchings, is the charges against the victims as made public through the press. In most cases, the reporters or correspondents are members of the mobs or receives their information, red-hot information, from a member of the mob whose hands are still stained with the blood of the "poor devil" who never had a chance after once in the hands of the so-called law. Anybody would know that such information would be partial and in self defense.
When truth gets a hearing, it will be found that in most cases reported as "criminal assault" on a white woman, it was a case of assault and battery on some woman's son or husband, who was attempting to whip a Negro, and got the worst of it. It is so easy to say the things which will excite public sympathy. Lynching of a Negro has become a popular pastime in many parts of the South, and burning at the stake, is a rare sport which is fast becoming common. So it is easy for the curious or the drunken whites to excite a mob by down right lying on a Negro.
It is a rare case when one member of a mob is called upon to swear, or give testimony under oath.
Eight lynchings, five of whom were burned at the stake, following close behind each other, argues strong for a Federal anti-lynch law.
The United States Senate in whose hands lies the fate of the anti-lynching bill, will fail in their sworn duty if it does not put a stop to lynching in this country.
In the meanwhile let the newspapers get facts in reporting the causes of lynchings.

One of the handicaps under which we as a group labor, is the lack of the proper use of our strength. The strength of any nation lies in their power to organize. Organization, to be effective, must have not only numbers but dollars and other resources. It requires thought and brain to organize. Its a pretty good test of our strength when measured by our ability to organize. Not that you can't possibly get along without me, nor that I can't possibly get along without you; but the point is, we can get along so much better with each other. We do not know our power. This is due to the fact that we have never pulled together long enough at one time to test our strength.

The consideration we give a horse is, "he is a good horse" he does our biddings because he does not think; he does not know his power. Surely we have suffered enough because of our lack of organization. Surely those who call themselves leaders, see that the masses are ready to go.

GOLF AND THE NEGRO
A man of dark skin recently applied for a permit to play golf. He was turned down because, says the Star, "It has been found that segregation in matters of swimming pools, play grounds, schools, and the like is for the best interest of both, and there is nothing to indicate the need of a change in the current arrangement."
When the matter in question was taken before the Director of Public Welfare by a committee, his mind the decision of the Park Commissioner and said trouble might result on the part of the whites if the permit had been granted. Of course this attitude is both practically and logically ill founded. When the question of how the Negro is treated by municipal authorities in border and southern cities as to recreational facilities was recently brought up in several interpersonal meeting in this and other cities the whites have replied that Negroes have lacked organization. We are of the opinion that there is sound justification in their point of view. Take the question of increased public school facilities for Negroes. Only a few of the Negroes themselves are interested. Altho the imperative need for an Open Air School for colored children has been pointed out repeatedly in this column but very little has been done by those who are in position to effect the needed improvements.
The question of having swimming pools, public baths, and new public schools for Negroes is largely a matter of how badly WE WANT them. The only way we see that these vital needs will be met is by the creating of a

second phone opinion as follows:
1. All organized bodies—ministers, teachers, press, theatres, and unions must begin and continue to hammer away as a unit at this damnable indifference, bigotry, prejudice and injustice until it falls down never to be erupted again.
2. The pulpit which reaches from 10,000 to 15,000 arch Sunday must throw its whole force behind these immediate pressing needs, for they are needed TODAY! They will help to bring the Kingdom of God nearer to us.
3. There must be conferences—willing “get together”—of the leaders of different groups to the end that a unified sentiment may be created in this direction.
4. Literature must be spread over the entire site, teaching all organized groups that they may be educated to the benefits that will accrue to the citizens of St. Louis from these improvements.
Many of the things which seem impossible for our group today can be accomplished of we organize and unify our efforts!

MRS. MARVIN WANTS ANTI-LYNCHING LAW
Being very much moved by the horrible lynching-burnings of Negroes recently in the South, Mrs I. S. Marvin of this city has writen letters to President Harding, Secretary of State Chas E. Hughes, Chief Justice William Howard Taft, and Senator H. Cabot Lodge urging action on the Dyer anti-lynching bill, as a means of checking lynchings in America. Senator Lodge, who is the Republic can floor leader in the Senate, in answer to Mrs Marvin's letter, sent the following reply: United States Senate. Committee on Foreign Relations May 20, 1922. My dear Madam: I have received your letter of May 15, relative to the so-called Dyer Anti-lynching bill, and am very glad to have your views regarding this matter.
I have always been opposed to lynchings and regard them as an outrage on the law. I expect to vote for the anti-lynching bill when it comes before the Senate, although I have not had time to examine the measure in any detail.
Very truly, yours,
H. C. LODGE.

SUPER-PSYCHICISM
Energy is the source of all development. The law of Nature is harmony and attraction. Disobey any law of Nature, and we are forced to pay the penalty. Of all the dismal theories doomed for certain destruction upon the tragic rocks of error, is man's belief in his ability to create. We own our present existence to the process of Psychic Evolution and have been created from the beginning of the world.
Man, the individual is a single cell of creation, comprising three component parts: physical, mental and psychic. The physical body is only a temple for the soul's expression, and our thoughts are not things, as some would have us believe; but they are however the image of things, materializing into reality according to the degree in which we support them by positive action. If thoughts were things, we would experience no difficulty in thinking ourselves around the globe; thinking ourselves a million dollars or fulfilling all our desires by thought magic.
Like the central sun of our universe man has his egocentric nucleus around which, according to the intagility and management of his aggregate powers, he attracts or repels those things and people which afford him the greater physical, mental and psychic satisfaction. The first duty of man is to discover the laws which govern him. There are thousands of us in the ditch depression; laboring under dillusionment, and bordered with the weight of misunderstanding because we have been taught to believe what we are told, and would rather accept a lie and die. In the ditch of perplexity, rather than in investigate and find the truth for ourselves.
Psychic Energy is the driving power which causes us to act. It is the gentle, yet firm determination to accomplish one single high and legitimate aim in life. In short, it is character; One's mental qualities, aptitudes and total abilities as they positively exist. Every one, after mastering the laws of self may utilize this

COLORED GIRL AVIATRIX WILL ESTABLISH SCHOOL FOR FLYING, AT CHICAGO
Associated Negro Press.
ROTTERDAM. Holland, May 24—Miss Bessie Coleman, the colored girl who has won fame as an aviatrix was a recent visitor here. Since leaving Chicago, her home, last spring, she has taken additional training in flying in France and arranged for the purchase of a machine which she plans to use in the school she is to establish in Chicago on her return. On her way to England, Miss Coleman suffered a severe sprain, which doctors felt would prevent her flying for some time, but she was fortunate in recovering quickly and was proclaimed plucky by the admiring Frenchmen. The aviatrix reports that America is away behind in flying. She states that while here everyone is taking flights, and air transportation is rapidly becoming a business, in America it is largely confined to exhibition events of military practice. She will, return to America in the late Summer.

NEW YORK, N. Y. May*24—Ten of our regular policemen and 120 of our police reserves formed a part of the big New York City police marche last Saturday. The John Wanamaker Band, of Philadelphia; representing the race, was also in the line of march More than 6,000 officers formed the parade.
New York always turns out loyally to do barge to its bluecots and last Saturday was no exception. Mayer F. Hylan, carrying a small flag, resplendent in high hat and cut-a-way coat, marched at the head of the parade to the reviewing stand at the Worth Monument where a presentation of medals to honor men occurred. Our regular policemen marched with the men from their precinct, the 28th. All made an excellent showing.

knowledge for personal success. Character is governed primarily by Solar Influences. These apply more to activity than to form and are symbolic of the true inner self, the soul, the aggregate mentality and its activity.
Heredity also has much to do with form and structure of the physical body, the strength line and the size of bone. The principal indication of heredity is vested, in the sub-conscious forming one of the main springs which characterize the original mental attitude.
Physiognomy practically applied to the facial divisions, conformation to size, shape and strength is the one certain means of establishing a correct estimate of the power and possible usefulness of one's Psychic Energy. All mental signs are plainly evidenced in the human face, each being symbolic of some special trait. The natural adaptability of the human mind is always significant in the fifty different facial divisions. We employ a very small portion of our powers, but by establishing the Positive Principal of Psychic Evolution is every thought and action, we automatically regenerate self into that which the Psychic Energy demands for perfect and permanent satisfaction. If you know, and know that you do know what your Psychic Energy demands of you, proceed to do it; but, if not, you yourself are aware of the fact and should not hostile to acquaint yourself with its insistent urges.
If Nature's handwork has made you an creative type with the reasoning brain; concentrative inventive, analytical, deductive, original, imaginative, creative mind; the magnetic, living vibrant touch; the Notes of firm confidence; the eye expressive of ambition, psychic vision and productive intensity; a sensitive, hopeful, sympathetic mouth; the inquisitive nose, with all other physical indications equal; your problem then is measurably important. With the golden key of Psychic Energy, you are invited to unlock your own storehouse of hidden treasures. Within, you will find the full materialization of every desire.

FROM HOUSTON INFORMER
HOUSTON, Texas, May 19- Thursday night C. F. Richardson, editor-publisher of The Houston Informer, was brutally, cowardly and murderously assaulted at the Houston police station or municipal slaughter shop by a plainclothes officer, who, a few minutes previously, had arrested the race editor after the latter had driven his car into a garage at 1013 San Felipe Street.
In company with his wife, Editor Richardson was returning from the Lincoln Theatre, where they had taken in the movies. Before leaving town they had supper at Smith's cafe, 415 Milam Street, after which they entered their car in front of the building, 410 Milam Street, where The Informer offices are located.
They drove down Milam to Prairie, thence to Louisiana to Dallas, Dallas to San Felipe and out San Felipe to the Service Car Union Garage, which is located at 1013 San Felipe Street.
Just as Editor Richardson: who was driving the car, blew his horn and signalled with his hand that he was preparing to enter the garage, a car shot past his and somebody in it 'said "Hey!" As practically, every colored driver or auto owner in town knows the editor, he paid no attention to the greeting, thinking it was some race acquaintance.
The editor drove his car into the garage and was attempting to back it in its place when a white man in civilian clothes came tearing into the garage like an intoxicated; maddened or bloodthirsty villain, flourishing his revolver, swearing and ordering the editor out of his car.
With his engine still running, the editor stopped his car and, that time another officer, who later proved to be the chauffeur of the police car, came and took out his pad and asked the editor's name and address.
In the meantime the first officer had created such an excitement and Europe that within five minutes fully 90 or 100 colored people had gathered in the garage and this officer kept out his pistol and continued to threaten to either kill or hit the editor over the head.
Mrs. Richardson, upon seeing the officer, approaching, swearing and wildly flourishing his "gat" like a man, left the car and inquired of this enraged minion of the law (?) the trouble. He stated that the driver was under arrest for not stopping when ordered to do so by an officer.
Editor Richardson informed this peace officer (?) that he had not been ordered to stop; that he had not seen him, in that when the car dashed by the editor's car on the street he did not recognize nor pay any attention to the occupants; that he had committed no crime and consequently could not be resisting arrest; urged his wife to cease her pleadings with the officer, who was threatening to kill or beat him, telling her that the officer was not going to strike him since he had committed no offense.
Up until this time no charge had been made against the editor, but when he insisted upon knowing the charge the arresting officer became more incensed and enraged and, after stating that the "fall light was out," added that Richardson was a "d—— smart nigger," and he was going to take him down and look him up.
Mrs. Richardson asked what her husband had done and the officer replied: "Resisting arrest from an officer and talking to me like I was a G——d——nigger."
Approaching Editor Richardson with his revolver still drawn, he ordered his partner, who had taken the editor's name and was about to hand him a slip, to not give the editor the slip, stating that he was going to carry him down and make him make bond.
Seeing that the arrogant officer was determined to raise unadulterated hell. Mr. Richardson insisted upon escorting his wife home, but the "bad" officer only got "badder" and at the point of a pistol forced the race man to get into the police car. He compelled Mr. Richardson to sit on the front seat with the chauffeur and held his pistol to the editor's back until the police station was reached, cursing him for all kinds of vile names, despite the fact that Mrs. Richardson was sitting on the back seat of the police car.
When the municipal butcher pen—police station—was reached, the bullying officer put his revolver in his scabbed and Mr. Richardson and his wife entered the side door. The police "gang" began to gather and as the editor made an effort to/ give the desk sergeant his name, the arresting officer struck at him with his fist. Mr. Richardson offred the blow, despite the fact he was ill and under care of a physician at the time (having been confined to bed during that week). The "gang" ordered the editor to get closer to the window and when he made the second attempt to give his name his wife wielded, "Don't you shoot my husband!" and Mr. Richardson turned his head—just in time to catch the fall force of the
PART TWO
the rear of his head.
When Mr. Richardson staggered from the force of the blow, which made a deep head and ugly wound on his forehead, another member of the "gang" attempted to push him back for another blow, whereupon the editor advised the officer not to strike him, again.
The race man was now bleeding profusely and when his wife attempted to wipe the blood from his forehead and face a few of those Huns tried to stop her.
After this cowardly, brutal and barbaric attack, the assailant began to glout and told the "gang" that he would have killed that "blacks" of b—out on San Felipe, but there was a bunch of niggers there and I knew they would have killed me."
Mr. Richardson then was permitted to give the desk sergeant his name and address. No charges had yet been preferred, mind you. The arresting officer had left the room and it was necessary to call him back to ascertain the charges. Here they are: "No tail light, one headlight out; resisting arrest from an officer, abusive language and talking to me like I was a G—d—nigger, if there is any such charge as that." This last charge elicited much laughter from other members of the "gang."
Despite his wound and loss of blood, the station charge'd affairs would not permit Mr. Richardson to telephone for a physician nor would they summon on, but later locked him up and kept him incarcerated about 45 minutes, full of blood and still bleeding.
This humiliation was heaped upon the editor; notwithstanding the fact that Mr. R. T. Andrews, retired race merchant, rector and capitalist, came in about three minutes after the assault to make bond for Mr. Richardson. Mr. Andrews was humiliated as much as possible, the desk sergeant using usaths, seending him out three or four times, once with instructions to get some banker (mind you, it was nearly 11 p. m.) to sign the little old $100 bondage bond with him.
Here is a colored man that is perhaps worth more than the mayor, city commissioners, all attaches of the various municipal departments, including police and fire departments combined, and yet because of the color of his skin, he too, must be insulted, embarrassed and humiliated at the police station, made possible and maintained by the taxes of all the citizens.
Affer certain members of the "gang" had visited the garage where Mr. Richardson left his car and searched it without a writ or warrant (maybe they thought they would, find something they could confiscate) and their search proved fruitless and futile, the edifor was released.
Some friends were waiting for him with a car and he was hurried to the Peoples Pharmacy where Dr. T. M. Shadowens dressed the wound, necessitating several stitches; assisted by Dr. G. R. M. Newman and Sam Stevenson.
As soon as he was released Mr. Richardson phoned Mayor Oscar Holcombe, got him out of bed and told him how badly he had fared at the station of the filmsy charge and gave him the name of the arresting and attacking officer. The mayor promised to attend to the matter the first thing, the next morning, but at time of this articles composition he was still "investigating." (O, investigation, how many crimes are committed in thy name!)
Various reports of the cowardly and brutal attack spread over the city with lightening-like rapidity and it was with difficulty that a vast number of peaceful and law-abiding colored citizens were held under restraint. But sober judgment prevailed, despite the fact that no similar act has ever stirred the city like the Richardson outrage, which was unprovoked, uncalled for, unwarranted and unnecessary.
As far as the "no tail light" and "one headlight" charges, the editor contends that all his lights were burning when he left Milam Street, as he always examines his lights and casings when his car has been standing for several hours like on Thursday night. Even garage men state that they examined the lights after the arrest and they were in perfect condition.
The other charges are so unfounded and false that the editor even refuses to discuss them.
We learn at hour of going to press that only two charges are against Editor Richardson, vlx: No tail light and abusive language. This is another proof that they do strange queer and peculiar things at Houston's slaughter shop—that internal and infamous police station.
But what has happened to Messrs. Richardson, T. L. Barron, the aged Ed-Smith and others at the local police station recently, is likely to be the lot of any race man or woman until such practices are broken up.
Mrs. Richardson is distracted over the experience of her husband and the ordeal through which she was forced to go both oneote to and at the MUICIPAL BUTCHER FEN. To say that it is hell, is expressing it mildly.

CONSTANTINOPLE. May 24—A manifesto has been issued to the Moslem faithful by the Islamic religious department exhorting them to banish feelings of mutual hatred and rancor and to be united in religion and faith.
The manifesto says: "In olden times when we were united and attached to religion, we dominated over vast territories in three continents and these territories we kept for many centuries, thanks to our high qualities.
"The duty which is now incumbent upon all the faithful is to accomplish the duties imposed by our holy religion and to seek pardon before Allah, in order to preserve the rest of our territories.
"Let us give up alcoholic drinks and do nothing which our religion forbids us to do. Let us try and love one another and preserve no rancor toward anyone."

THE SOUTH SEA ISLAND GIRLS ARE MORE MODEST IN DRESS THAN OURS
Author Of "Fairy Land" Says "We Don't See Half As Much Of The Women There As You Do Up Here."
Associated Negro Press
NEW YORK, N. Y., May 24—Are brown women more attractive and more modest than their fairer sisters? Ruth Raphael of the "Journal" quotes a young white author, James Norman Hall, author of "Fairy Lands of the South Sense"—the same Mr. Hall who has lived in his fairy isles for several years, and who has declared he is through with civilization forever, as saying so. Listen to what he said:
"Since returning to the United States I have had a chance to see the American girl ony on the street. Even there I was struck by her lack of modesty. No girl of the South Sea Islands would dress like that. It is a mistaken idea that the women go about as the photographs which reach America would indicate. As a matter of fact, the clothes of the island girl are much more modest than the girl up here.
Natural and Simple
"Of course, the island girls are always barefooted and barelegged, but that is so natural and simple. You look at it as if a tree—it is not meant to be suggestive."
"Well" evaded M. Hall, "the modern
biggergest manner, may deny" shir
"You made a statement," I said. "that women of the South Seas are more modest than the girls you have seen here." "They are" he declared. "How about these pictures showing an island beauty wearing a string of beads and flowers in her hair?" "As a matter of fact," he answered.

**Women Losing Charm**
"What else strikes you about the American girl?" I asked. "How else has she changed?"
"I am struck by the number of men's jobs that women are holding—in politics, the professions etc. Personally after living in the South Seas, I don't think it a good thing—that is for the women themselves. "It seems to me they lose a good deal of charm—certainly they lose a good deal of romantic interest."
"No doubt the island women have a great deal or 'romatic interest,' I suggested.
"They have beautiful hair, fine teeth and lovely skin," he answered vaguely.
"Frederick O'Brien said that they are about the color of coffee and cream. Is that a good description of them?"
"That's all right—only don't put in too much cream."

ARKANSAS WHITE WOMEN ORGANIZE RACE MOVEMENT Demand For The People Of All Races A Square Deal And The Full Protection Of Law. Deplore Lack Of Respect For Negro Womanhood.
By Inter-Racial News Service.
NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 23. — Leading white women of Arkansas met in Little Rock in April, organized a branch of the State Committee on Inter-Racial Cooperation, and gave to the public a vigorous address demanding for the people of all races a square deal and the full protection of law. Stating that public sentiment concerning the Negro has too long been formed by prejudice, passion, indifference and ignorance, they declared their purpose to study the question with open mind and help create a public sentiment which shall "lessen the unhappy conditions about us, make impossible the present forms of lawlessness and disrespect for the courts, and remove contempt for and exploitation of human life."
Among the most serious phases of the race problem at present, said the committee, is "a lack of respect and protection for Negro womanhood." They therefore pledged themselves "to emphasize a single standard in morals for both men and women, to the end that the integrity of both races may be assured."
Affirming that the test of character of an individual or a race is to be found in its attitude toward those who are weaker and whose opportunities have been less, the committee appealed for a spirit of justice, helpfulness and cooperation for the Negro that shall be worthy of the white man's larger opportunity and longer period of development.
Mrs. W. D. Reeves of Helena was elected chairman, and Mrs. Chio Harper of Little Rock, secretary. The membership of the committee includes prominent representatives of the various civic and religious organizations. The plan to be followed contemplates an organization in each community to forward the principles for which the committee stands. Within the last few months similar organizations have been effected by the women of Georgia, Alabama, So. Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, and Texas. It is believed that this movement among the women of the South promises much for the future peace and well-being of both races.

OLIVE CHAPEL, KIRKWOOD
By A. S. Fields
Sunday School promptly at 9:30 A.M. with an increase over last Sunday. The teachers are making preparation for Children's Day the second Sunday in June. At H. A. M. Dr. Hoyle of East M. Louis, Ill., spoke for us on the topic of Race adjustments. There was many good thoughts in his talk that will be remembered. The pastor in company with W. M. Motley, one of his stewards, attended the quarterly meeting at Grant Chapel at 3 P. M. They reported an excellent service! At 6:45 P. M. Miss Minnie M. Ross, District President, A. C. E. League, St. Louis District, made her official visit in company with her sister and another, young lady from the city. After the usual formal opening President, Cayce, introduced Miss Ross as the principal speaker for the evening. Her address was well arranged and was a source of inspiration and instructive from many angles. And we believe her visit will be the means of making our League a better one. Other speakers were Rev. S. Tyler of Kirkwood and the pastor. The League service was "all that we hoped for the evening and I do not forget."

LESSON FOR MAY 28.
JEREMIAH SPEAKS BOLDLY FOR
GOD.
LESSON TEXT.—Jer. 26.
GOLDEN TEXT.—Amend your ways and
your doings and obey the voice of the
Lord. 3:44.
REFERENCE MATERIAL.—II Sam.
12:1-14; I Kings 25:1-24; Jer. 7:1-15; Amos
6:1-8.
PRIMARY TOPIC.—The Story of a
Brave Prophet.
JUNIOR TOPIC. - A Brave Prophet's Message.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC.
Jeremiah Speaks Boldly for God.
1. Jeremiahiah's Solennil Warning to Judah (vv. 1-7).
The Lord commanded him to stand in a conspicuous place in the temple and proclaim the judgment which was about to fail upon them because of their sins. The object was to provoke them to repentance (v. 3). If they would not repent, God would make the temple as Shiloh (v. 6). Just as Shiloh was once the dwelling place of the Lord and now fallen into decay and abandoned, so will it be with the temple. Jeremiahiah was sent to speak the words the Lord had told him and not to diminish a word.
11. Jeremiah on Trial (vv. 8-11).
1. Cause of Arrest (v. 8). It was for faithfully speaking all that the Lord had commanded. The one who speaks boldly what God commands shall be opposed. The time-server and self-seeker will not stand for such a ministry.
2. The Charge (vv. 8, 9). It was a capital crime. They said, "Thou shalt surely die." His guilt according to their charge was twofold: (1) Pretending to speak for God; (2) Speaking against the temple and the city. According to their charge he was guilty of blasphemy and sacrilege.
3. The Princes Sit in Judgment (vv. 10, 11). When the excitement reached the ears of the princes they came to judge of the merits of the case. Matters of state were not entirely in the hands of the priests and elders, but were partly controlled by members of the royal family.
III. Jeremiah's Defense (vv. 12-15).
1. Reliterates His Divine Commission (v. 12). He had nothing to deny, but to repeat what he had said. He plainly told them that in opposing him they were opposing God, for he was God's messenger.
2. His Exhortation (v. 13). He urged them to amend their ways and obey God, and God would not bring upon them judgment. Their threats did not cause him to suppress or soften his message.
3. He Gave Himself Up (v. 14). He did not resist the powers of government (Rom. 13:1). Knowing that he was sent of God he was content to trust God for deliverance. He did not fear what man could do unto him.
4. Warns of Fatal Consequence (v. 15). He frankly told them that God had sent him and if they killed him they would be guilty of defying God. Resistance to God's "prophet would be resistance to God. Woe would not only fall upon them, but the nation and city would suffer.
IV. Jeremiah Saved (vv. 19-24).
He was acquitted. God is able to raise up friends and advocates from the ranks of those who oppose All hearts are in God's hands.
1. Judgment of the Princes (v. 16). They pronounced him not guilty, as he had spoken in the name of the Lord. Jeremiah's words convinced them that he was speaking the truth.
2. Speech of the Elders (vv. 17-23). As the princes probably represented the king, so the elders represented the people.
The elders plead for Jeremiah and adduced several cases in illustration:
(1) Micah (vv. 18, 19). Micah had prophesied against Jerusalem, but the king Hezekiah instead of putting him to death, repented and thus turned aside the punishment which was impending. (2) Uriah (vv. 20-23). Uriah prophesied against the city and land and thus incurred the wrath of Jeholaklm, who brought him back from Egypt whence he had fled and slew him.
Though all this was done, judgment was not thus thwarted. Killing God's prophets does not prevent God's judgment, but intensifies it. In the case of Hezekiah God's judgments were turned aside through heeding the words of the prophet, and in the case of Jeholaklm judgment fell upon the nation because of retusal and maltreatment of the prophet.
8. Rescued by Ahikam. (v. 24). Ahikam must have been a man of influence such as to be able to interfere at such a time.
Friendship That Never Falls
Friendship That Never Fails.
Preserve Jesus were in your company, would it not make life strong and pure and effective, full of power and sweetness and power and joy to have such a Friend always at hand? His is a companionship that never grows wearisome, and His is a friendship that never falls, and it teaches through time and eternity.

Envy is like a fly that passes all a body's sounder parts and dwells upon the sores—Chapman.
