Harvard U. Anouncement Looks Like Discrimination
Associated Negro Press
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 1—What is interpreted as an announcement involving discrimination against the Jews has just been issued by the Harvard University authorities.
It is announced that because of limited accommodations, it will be necessary to limit the number of students applying for admission to fall from the statement says.
"We have not at present sufficient classrooms or dormitories—especially freshman dormitories—to take care of any large increase. Before a general policy can be formulated on this great question it must engage the attention of the governing board and the faculty of the university to alumni and undergraduates.
"It is natural that with a widespread discussion of this sort going on, there should be talk about the proposition of Jews at the college."

Ku Klux After Newspapers
Associated Negro Press
OMAHA, Nebraska, June 7 — The Kluwer has begun a streak against Negro newspapers. A recent letter to the Omaha Monitor, an Associated Negro Press membership newspaper, is indicative of the new venture. The letter was sent because of an outstanding editorial expression, and follows; Mr. Negro Editor:
Your ideas are all wrong here. What you advocate here must not, and shall not be, as long as there are any white men in this country. White supremacy is our slogan and we are going to rule this country without the aid or consent of any Negro or bunch of Negroes, no matter how smart they may be. You may as well put away the fool notions expressed in this yawp. This is a white man's country and we are checking up on you while you are dreaming, and having a good time.
"You've lost out politically and you can't recover. We're put the thin edge of the wedge under Oregon and Omaha comes next. New York will follow for you we white are determined to eliminate the Negro from State and National politic
Your Dyers et al are just stringing you Negroes for your votes. There is no way to enforce that bill. The white man couldn't live who attempted it. We are one family. North and South, and like you Negroes, we sympathize with each other; our lives and liberties are menaced by an allien race. Your tall talk will not get the Negro any further that he has gotten. There can be no Imperio in Imperium here. We haven't the space.

STOPS KU KLUX PARADE
AKRON, Ohio, June 5.—The Akron Ohio, branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has been instrumental in stopping a widely advertised parade of the Ku Klux Klan, which was to have taken place in this city on May 24. It was announced today. The Klan parade was to culminate in a huge mass meeting in the local army. Upon learning of the proposed demonstration the Akron branch at once went to the Mayor of the city and succeeded in obtaining an injunction preventing both the Ku Klux Klan parade and the meeting in the army.
The result of this victory was the receipt of numbers of threatening letters addressed to Samuel Kelly, president of the branch. Mr. Kelly, however, was given protection by the sheriff.

Republican Senators Who Labor Zeenously To Prove Bill Unconstitutional Will Be Knifed.
CHICAGO, IL. June 7...Are the Colored people of America in earnest about the passing of anti-lynching legislation?
This question was asked Oscar De Priest by the Associated Negro Press, Mr. De Priest, who is known everywhere to be as blunt as he is frank, as fair as he is just, and as earnest as he is, almost, did not unite his words in answer.
You ask if the Colored people of America are in earnest about anti-lynching legislation? They never were more earnest than they were before the people in which the rank and file are so deeply interested as they are in anti-lynching legislation," said the big Chicago leader.
Continuing he said: "The Republican party desires to remain in power, but I want to say that there is no power on earth that will induce thinking Colored people to send back to the Senate men who labor zeenously to prove the Dyer Bill unconstitutional rather than labor to pass the bill, and permit the court's to decide the legality.
"We may as well face the issue, and face it clean cut: allibis, excuses passing the buck, will get no where to hide the situation, as beyond the control of those who any influence with voters, and I certainly would not ask any of my friends to support those who prove false to their trust.
"The United States Senate can pass this bill. It must do so if it cares for Colonial support. Democratic threats and blockerings must avail nothing. With the orgies of lynching in Texas and Georgia, our 15,000,000 people cry out for action and justice. We are united everywhere on this anti-lynching issue, and by it we rise or fall. I pray to God that the conscience of the pation, as it always has in a crisis, may rise to the occasion.
NEGRO CARVES CANE FOR PRES. HARDING
Associated Negro Press
SAVANNAH, Georgia, June 7—Alto
Branch, one of the best known Negro
pen knife carvers in the country, who
has been in this city for the past few
months, has received a very com-
mendable letter of acknowledgement
from Christian, secretary to
President Harding, shining him
the Shriner's eye which he carried
for the president. The cane that was
sent to Washington about a month
ago is a beautiful piece of work and
was ornamented with wonderfully
perfect carvings emblematic of the Shriners.
The work of Branch has been highly
commented on in all parts of the
country. In Cleveland, Ohio, he was
awarded, several months ago, first
premium in this art and in other places
he has received much recognition for
his handwork. He has carved wal-
kens for several men of high
life, among them John D. Rockerfeller.
LIBERTY BONDS AT PAR
NEW YORK. N. Y. June 7—For the first time since the date of issue, Liberty Bonds have sold at par or better. Thus predictions of treasury officials made early in the year, that all of Ugle Sams's war flotations soon would reach par or better, have been fulfilled. One of the first pledges of the Harding Administration also is filled. There has been heavy trading in Liberty Bonds, at highest price on the market. Transactions embracing several lots, of $1,000000 were the outturn. Continued ease of money and investment buying by individuals and corporations in anticipation of June interest and dividend disbursements gave stimulus to the day's extensive purchases of the war flotations.
Maximum and minimum quotations of these bonds so far this year afford interesting comparisons. The high of 100.00 for the .32% compares with a low of 94.48 for 1922. The first 4s of 1932-47 sold as low as 96.40 and as high as 100.10; the third 4s of 1927-42 ranged from 98.80 to 100; the third 4s in very large, rose from 95.72 to 100.04.

Representative From 6th District Shows Ministers Alliance The Importance Of Every Negro Having Name Properly Qn Books
Representative Writtnall Moore, in addressing the Methodist and Baptist Minsters Alliance last Monday, asked that each pastor urge the members of their respective congregations to see that their names properly appear on the registration books.
"The names of all voters" said Rep. Moore "were recently transferred by the election commissioners on the old books to new ones. Through this process, we have been discovered that numerous clinical errors were made. A great number of names was either left off, scratched out, or placed in wrong precincts.
The approaching primary election is of such importance that no indifference upon our part in the general registration of June 22nd should be shown. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People are persistently urging we be careful in our sentimental contests in all states where our votes enable us to influence the political results. Who knows but what the Senatorial candidate nominated, and elected in Missouri will have to pass on the Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill?
"Are we going to vote for any Senatorial candidate whose support of the Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill we question or doubt?
"Do we not owe it to Congressman Dyer, whose efforts in our behalf have been so praiseworthy to manifest this concern?
"Do in what way can this be shown to greater advantage than by the judicious exercise of our political right in the August Primary."

MEMPHIS, Tenn. June 7—Charged with passing counterfeit silver coins four colored men were, being held at police headquarters Monday awaiting preliminary trial before United States Commissioner W. C. Carter. They are Frank Franklin, George Crocker, Amanda Johnson and Robert Keith. The request of Secret Service operatives here, City Detectives Cason and McGee took the men into custody. Upon visit to the home of Franklin, it was said a number of automobile tires and accessories were found.

ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 7—The Missouri Negro Industrial Commission will draft a bill for introduction in the next Legislature, which will define lynching as murder, and provide penalties against members of mobs as well as include other ideas calculated to stop the practice. This bill will incorporate in it some features usually left out by others, one of which will provide for the creation of a state Secret Service Bureau to assist in collecting, evidence, and the power to secure juries from any part of the state.
Eighty-three persons have been lynched in Missouri in the last 32 years. Thirty-four of them have been white, the remaining occurred during April 1921, when Roy Harmon was lynched at Bowling Green after having been convicted and given a ten year term in the penitentiary. Investigations have since established a strong doubt that Hammond was guilty of crime of rape, and there were discoveries strong indications of aspiracy to mote out some sort of "Lynch Law" justice (?) because of public demand in some quarters.
ST. LOUIS, Mo. June 7—During the introduction of proposals at Jefferson City, for the new Constitution which this state hopes to adopt, delegate. G. L. Zedwick of St. Joseph proposed an article on education embodying the ideas of the State Teachers Association. Among the provisions are separate schools for colored people. This state has always had separate schools, but the leading colored people are opposed to any supreme ideals being embodied in the law. Negotiation please be forthcoming in both law and in law with the various sections of the Legislature, but must be the state does not seem to demand the strengthening of the "Jim Crow" laws.

BETTER FACILITIES DESIRED
Want Public To Know Their Fight Is For Reasonable Justice In The Administration Of The School System. Program Includes High School East Of Grand Avenue And A Return Of The Seventh And Eighth Grades To Districts. Mass Meeting Next Sunday At Union Memorial Church.
Being determined to get their case properly and correctly stated before the school board and the public, the Central School Patron's Association has undertaken a program which will touch all the people of the city.
In their general campaign, public mass meetings will be held in the various Churches in the community, circles and other literature will be distributed all over the city.
Mass Meeting Sunday
Another mass meeting will be held Sunday, June 11, at Union Memorial Church, at 3:20 p.m. It is understood that proponents and opponents will discuss the school situation. Members of the school board are expected to be present.
Dr. George E. Stevens, pastor of Central Baptist Church, president of the Association, will preside at the meeting.
Extractions From Statement of the Case
In a sixteen page circular, the Central School Patrons' Association sets forth its "grievances and appeal" to the Board of Education. Among other things the pamphlet reads:
To the Members of the Board of
system of Saint Louis is a melting pot for all others except the Negro American, tho in a real sense to the manner born. The best in our system is given to all others, but for Afro-Americans special arrangements are to be made.
Segregation is expensive, but should our children be made to suffer because of that expense? Surely the Board should give its careful scrutiny to our schools because of the case with which facilities for equal instructions can be curtailed. Compare Summer with the white high schools as to facilities, and material for work to see whether the principal, teachers and pupils toll on a lower level.
Grade School Principals Slighted
When the Board of Education took the seventh and eighth grades from the grammar schools and put them at Marshall, not a principal of those schools was consulted. They knew nothing of it until after the matter had been decided and effected. These men had rendered efficient, faithful service for years, some twenty, thirty forty years. They had earned the repect of the Board else they would not have been retained. Yet in making
Madam and Gentlemen
Feeling assured that the Board of Education, in its management of the public schools, is desirous of rendering the highest possible service to all classes of citizens and, in so far as it is in possession of facts, will so shape its policies, the colored citizens of St. Louis beg leave to bring to your attention the following facts concerning their schools.
1. Another High School Needed
When the Summer High School was built there were less the four hundred in attendance, but now the enrollment is approximately fourteen hundred. It was built to accommodate seven hundred and fifty. The present crowded condition of Summer with pupils and classes packed. Into every available space is a mance to the safety of the pupils a cause for indignation and grief to the patrons. It is true that the capacity of all the city schools is overtaxed these days; but the fear among the Colored patrons is that the Board will not interpret correctly the meaning of the crowded condition of their schools especially the high school and give what will be but a temporary relief. Our widely scattered rapidly growing community is in immediate need of another high school. Fifty or sixty per cent of Summer's pupils pay car fare coming from long distances.
That vast district bounded in a general way by Grand Avenue, on the west, the river on the east, Park avenue on the South and Cross. Avenue on the North supplies most of Summer's pupils. This district needs a new high school. Of the thirty thousand Negro voters in St. Louis twenty thousands at least are in this district. The largest and most of the Negro grammar schools are here. The largest and most of the Negro churches are in this district. The best been by a casual study, to be a perennial section and with owners of property rapidly increasing. Most of Negro businesses and the large Y. M. C. A. are in this area. A new high school is a first need here.
Our Teachers' Training School Defeative
It must be apparent to all that the efficiency of the future teachers of our Colored youth should be improved to be in line with the high ideal of our Saint Louis system. The normal course and teaching profession among us should be given their sacred and proper importance. The teachers in our Normal Department have wrought splendidly, but they are not super men and women. We ask the Board of Education to go from Harris Teachers' College to College, and few equals in the United States to the Summer High School where Colored teachers are trained. It will be seen at a glance that the preparation for the teachers of Colored youth is not to be compared to that offered at Harris Teachers' College. What is in the remedy? Give us a Normal School with its own separate faculty and articulated with some grade school for observation and practice, and also offer courses for college credits to ambitious teachers.
The present teacher throughout the country is to have a teacher's training school as a culture entirely smart from the College. The College does not teach. The High School does not have a family of at least five directors in its entire time to normal work. In line with this ideation of consequence management a final system of schools for the race, work, or Washington, Baltimore, and Seattle have developed for the training of their Colored teachers academy and amuse from the high school.

system of Saint Louis, is a melting pot for all others except the Negro American, the in a real sense to the manor born. The best in our system is given to all others, but for Afro-Americans special arrangements are to be made. Segregation is expensive, but should our children be made to suffer because of that expense? Surely the Board should give its careful scrutiny to our schools because of the case with which facilities for equal instructions can be curtailed: compare Summer with the high school activities, and material for work to see whether the principal, teachers and pupils toll on a lower level.
Grade School Principal's Sighted
When the Board of Education took the seventh and eighth grades from the grammar schools and put them at Marshall, not a principal of those schools was consulted. They knew nothing of it until after the matter had been decided and effected. These men had rendered efficient, faithful service for years, some twenty, thirty forty years. They had earned the respect of the Board else they would not have been retained. Yet in making this radical change in the work and life of the schools and the respective school districts, these men were ignored. In this course the Board of Education departed from its usual custom of the school's consideration. The community has worked this was, as the step has produced, no results satisfactory to the parents of these schools.
New Wine In Old Hettle
However capable and faithful the principals and teachers of our high school and grade schools he may not be the impossible. It is in the nature of a tragedy filled with pathos whom trying to preserve the new winters old blooms, and quite the same conditions as when the school population was one-half of what it is now. Note some of the results of the crowded schools and over-worked teachers and children along on the streets going to and from school:
(a) The lack of proper supervision in our schools.
(b) The breaking down of disciplines
(c) Inefficient teaching and poor scholarship.
(d) Corruption of morals and man among those of the adolescent are.
(e) Harmful remark that is being heard these days and which comes as reported from the Board of Education. Headquarters is that all this effort for better schools and more schools can be reduced to a personal attack upon this one or that one employed in the school system.
This statement is possibly the cruelest stab of all. This is not true, we resent this, we deny this. Every principal as such who is faithful and efficient at the post where the Board employs him to serve and every teacher in all our schools who in character and efficiency is making good care safe in our hands. We honor them. But if a principal, a teacher or a citizen says we do not need another high school, open air schools, an accredited teachers' college and the grade schools rehabilitated and made adequate in numbers and capacity and the general educational opportunities for your youth equal to those of them if these do not do so. Things is it their privilege to say so, but they should prove their position out in the open as we are doing. Why should our consent for justice for our children be called an anomaly on any individual. Let the Board study conditions as they are and they will see why the Colored people are agitated. This charge of personal attack is mischievous for two reasons:
41) It alms at blunting the point of our protest and weakening the force of our contention by reducing these activities to personal anima. It is designed to alienate from us the favor. (Continued on Page . 8)

In the grave yard softly sleeping,
Where the flowers gently wave
Lies the one we loved so dearly,
In her lonely, silent grave.

In death we do the same.
Sadly missed by your daughter,
Lillian Riley and son-in-law, P. G. Riley.

IN MEMORIAM
In loving memory of our dear son, Orville Anderson who died June 12, 1921.
Our darling son from us has gone, To a home beyond the grave; I tried so hard to keep him, But my boy I could not save.
To his grave I'll slowly wonder.
Until death calls me away;
Where I hope to join him hand in
hand.
At the throne on judgment day.
Sadly missed by mother, brother and
family.
Sacred to the memory of our darling boy, Frank J. Thomas, Jr., who passed into the Great Beyond, three years ago, Saturday June 10, 1919.
Passed out beyond our mortal vision.
All heedless of our failing tears.
Unconscious of our desolation.
Unnoting all our lonely years.
Weep not! the one whose loss you sorrow.
Now lives in Heaven forevermore.
Sadly mourned by father and mother.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Thomas.

Tis hard to break the tender chord, When, love has bound the heart; Tis hard, so hard to speak the word, We must forever part.
God in His wisdom has called thee, Opees his love has given; And though the bodies moulded here, The soul is saved in heaven.
If care and love could death prevent, Your days would not have so soon been spent.
Sadly missed by Mrs. Stella Speed, daughter and sister.

The vacant places, the empty chairs, We see them day by day; And oh! It fills our hearts with care, Since our loved ones went away.
But tho' the light has left us here, Like the setting of the sun; We will trust Thee ever Father, dear, And say, Thy will be done.
Sadly missed by their sons, John Douthit, Farmington, Mo. and Wesley Douthit, Jr, St. Louis, Mo.
In loving rememberance of my dear mother, Ellie Brown who departed this life one year ago, June 11, 1921 at the New Home: Sanfarium, Jacksonville, Ill.

When one I loved was called away;
'Tis hard to break the tender chord.
When love has bound the heart.
'Tis hard, so hard to speak the word.
Must we forever part?
Dearest mother I have laid thus,
In the peaceful, grave's embrace.
But my memory is still enriched.
Till I see the Heavenly face.
Badly missed by her daughter;
Arlvie Wiliams

Tim promotes, by engaging the old folks with a narrative that really has for its aim the instructions to the contracting parties. The affair is pulled off behind their backs after considerable humorous excitement. that the olimax to a double romance that flies with comic situations and keeps the audience laughingly. Jones Stafford and Gertie Moore are the parents; Jessie Cowan is "Rosie," their daughter; Brownie Campbell her suitor; and Tim Moore, "Jake," the hired man who directs the match.
There are a number of good song and dance specialities opening with a chorus by the company. Eddie Staford and the girls sing and dance "When The Mellon's Ripe in Dixie".

"Way Down East", "Cain And Abel"
"Her-Mad Bargain" At Comet
The features at the Comet Theatre this Saturday will be Anita Stewart in "Her Mad Bargain", and the second great narrative of the old testament. "Cain and Abel". It has been illuminated by one of our own, but more seriators that as many, but not more, address it, and these, have been prompted by the story of Cain and Abel than from any other narrative of the Old Testament.
On Thursday and Friday, D. W. Griffith presents, "Way-Down East." This was a play by Lottie Blair Parker which Joseph R. Grismer helped adapt to the stage and enjoyed unusual popularity for over a decade upon the regular stage. D. W. Griffith has taken this basic story and by his new are form which represents a combination of music, drama and motion pictures, has produced a classic. The screenplay is based on the title of plain people revolving around the love of, David Hartlett and Anna Moire in a New England rural community as originally played by Lottie Blair Parker for a decade. Griffith has embellished it with those rare touches that he brings to everything he does for a motion picture narrative, but upin such a scale that he has literally evolved a new art form. It possesses scenes of such sweetness and charm that they are pronounced worthy to hang in the art galleries of the land and he has added a thrilling climax showing the scene Anna and the crowd at the night with the storm and the great ice jam with the flue on the river which is universally proclaimed the greatest ever seen within a theatre in the world's history.

Rudolph Valentine, who supported Dorothy Dalton in "Moran of the Lady Letty", in her leading man and he heads an unusually strong supporting cast of players. The story is one of Elinor Glyn's famous novel-romances, wherein Elizabeth Nwanson, the wife, in a forced marriage to a middle-aged millionaire, falls in love with "Sung Lord Reasonable". After a tempest, she quashes the story ends satisfactorily. On Thursday and Friday "Is Matrimony a Failure"? Will be the feature. This comedy is a highly diverting one dealing with an average little Main Street town, half of the inhabitants of which suddenly discover that owing to a local technically they are not married after all.

Moton One Of Principal Speakers At Dedication Of Lincoln Memorial May 30
Cipal Of Tuskegee And President Of National Negro Business League, Makes Address On Loyalty Of Race. President Warren G. Harding And Chief Justice William H. Taft Were Other Speakers.
Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Normal and Institute Institute, and President of the National Negro Business League, was one of the principal speakers at the dedication the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D./C., on May 30, Moton's address on the Spirit of Lincoln and the Loyalty the Negro will go down in history along side of those of resident Warren G. Harding and Chief Justice William How-Taft.
Motton's Complete Address Follows:
When the Pilgrim Fathers set foot
on the shores of America in 1620,
he laid the foundations of our natural existence upon the bed-rock oferty. From that day to this, liberty
been the common bond of our
tied people. In 1776, the altars of
new nation were set up in the name
liberty and the flag of freedom united before the nations of the earth.
1812: in the name of liberty, we
were our youthful might, and struck
at the freedom of the seas. Again
61', when the charter of the man's birth, was nussled, the sons of
erty declared anew the principles
of their fathers and liberty became extensive with the union of the band,
and liberty became extensive with the emisphere. And as we stand in solan silence here today, there still rumbling out of the East the only dying echoes of the last great struggle to make freedom co-extensive with the seven seas. Freedom is the blood of the nation. Freedom is the heritage bequeathed to all heres. For all who reflect upon theory of our republic, freedom is the underlying philosophy of our nation-existence.
Two Great Forces
But at the same time another influence was working within the nation. while the Mayflower was riding at anchor preparing for her voyage frommouth, another ship had already arrived at Jamestown. The first was to hear the plebiscite of freedom, freedom of thought and freedom of conscience; the latter had firmly borne the pleness of liberty and a bondage we were alike to body, mind and spirit. Here then upon American soil within a year met the two great forces that were to shape the destiny of the nation. They developed side by side. Freedom was the great compelling force that dominated all and like a great and shining light beckon the oppressed of every nation to the hospitality of these shores. But every a brittle thread was woven ear by year into the fabric of the nation's life. They who for themselves ought liberty and paid the price were in precious blood and price of treasurers, somehow still found possible, while defending its eternal principles for themselves, to withhold at same precious boon from them. And how shall we defend for if except it be that in the providence of the black slave in America was put惟独 the path of the onward marching white race to demonstrate for America, but for the world neither the principles of freedom were universal, application, and ultimate to extend its blessings to all mankind.
conflict of Liberty and Bondage in the process of time, as was inable, these great forces, the forces liberty and the forces of bondage, shira at Plymouth and Jamestown, in open conflict upon the field of life. And how strange it is through some over-ruling Prudence, that even of those who bought and sold, fellows into bondage should be our those who cast aside ties of mage, of race of religion and even inship, in order that a people not their own race, nor primarily of own creed or color, but sharing common humanity, should have the measure of liberty, and freedom in they themselves enjoyed.
that a costly sacrifice upon the alms of freedom! How costly the old can never know nor justly call it. The flower of the nation's man and the accumulated treasure two hundred and fifty years of extending toll were offered up; and length, when the bitter strife was, when the marshalled hosts on its sides had turned again to break descaled fireside, a cruel fate, satisfied with the awful toll of four years of carriage, struck at the dawn's head and brought to the dawn already weared frame of him, one patient fortune, whose killing treed charity, whose killing set in the guiding of God had brought upon weltering through of blood, set one and indulge to quiet and peace. On that by Abraham Lincoln laid down his for America, the last and costliness upon the alter of free
true that to the last extremity he defended the rights of states. But, when the last veteran has stacked his arms on frame's eternal camping ground; when only the memory of high courage and deep devotion remains to inspire the noble sons of vallant fathers; at such a time, the devoted voice of greatness may be swayed. The greatestness for Abraham Lincoln lies in this, that amd doubt and distrust against the counsel chosen advisors, in the hour of the nation's utter peril, he put his trust in God and spoke the word that gave freedom to a race and, vindicated the honor of a nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men/are created equal.
**Loyalty is the Reward**
But, someone will ask: Has such a sacrifice been justified? Has such martyrdom produced its worthy fritz? I spake for the Negro race. Upon us, more perhaps than upon any other martyrdom produced in the United Mediate obligation to justify so dear a price for our emancipation. In answer let me review the Negro's past upon the American soil. No group has been more loyal. Whether bond or free, he has served alike his country's need. Let it never be omitted from the nation's annals that the blood of a black man—Grispus Attucks—was the first to be shed for the nation's freedom. So again, when a world was threatened with disaster and the deciding hand of America was lifted to stay the peril, her black soldiers were among the first to cross the treacherous sea, and the last to leave the trenches. So one was sensible than the Negro himself of the great American republic. But be it recorded to his everlasting credit, that no failure to reap the full reward of his sacrifice has ever in the least degree qualified his loyalty or cooked his patriotic fervor.
In like manner he has served his country, in the pursuits of peace. From the first blows that won the virgin soil from the wilderness to the sudden marvelous expansion of our industry that, went so far to win the war, the Negro has been the nation's greatest single asset in the development of its resources. Especially is this true in the South where his uncompelling toll sustained the splendors of that life which gave to the nation a Washington and a Jefferson a Jackson and a Lee. And afterwards when devastating war had levelled this fair structure with the ground the labor of the freedman restored it to its present proportions, more substantial and more beautiful than before.
While all this was going on, in spite of limitations within and restrictions without, he still found the way through industry, integrity and thrift to acquire 22,000,000 acres of land, 600,000 homes and 45,000 churches. After less than sixty years of freedom, Negroes operate 78 banks, 100 insurance; companies, and 60,000 business enterprises with a combined capital of more than $150,000,000. Besides all this, there are within the race 60,000 professional men, 44,000 school teachers and 400 newspapers and magazines; while its general illiteracy has been reduced to twenty per cent. Still the Negro race, in these things, in but at the beginning of its development; so that if anything in its history could justify sacrifice that has been made, it is this: that the black experience for advancement has taken full advantage of the freedom to develop its latent powers for itself and for the nation. A race that has produced a Frederick Douglas in the midst of slavery, and a Booker Washington in the aftermath of re-reconstruction has gone far to justify its emancipation. And the nation where such achievement is possible is full worthy of such heroic sacrifice.
But Lincoln did not die for the Negro alone. He freed the nation as a race. Those conflicting forces planted two hundred and fifty years before had slowly divided the nation in spirit, in ideals and in policy. Passing suddenly beyond the bitterness of controversy, his death served more than war itself to emphasize the enormity of the breach that had developed between the nation. Not until then was there a full realization of the significance of public opinion words: "This nation cannot endure half slave, and half free."
That tragic event showed the consequences of the nation and stirred a great sense of solitude among the masses, but the nation itself and its
public that measured at full value the worth of each race and section cherishing at the same time the hope under God that all should share alike in the blessings of freedom. Now we rejoice in the far-facing vision and the answering faith that held firmly to its single purpose, even in the midst of reproach, and preserved for all posteriority the integrity of the nation.
Has Not Died In Vain
Lincoln has not died in vain. Slowly through the years that noble spirit has been permeating every section of our land and country. Sixty years ago he stood in lonely grander above torn and bleeding nittaton a towering figure and patient righteousness. To day his spirit animates the breast of millions of his countrymen, who unite with us to now tribute to his lofty character and his immortal deed.
And now the whole world turns with anxious heart and anger even toward America. In the providence of God there has been started on these shores the great experiment of the ages—an experiment in human relationships where men and women of every nation, of every race, and creed—are thrown together in daily contact. Here we are engaged, consciously or unconsciously, in the great problem of determining how different races can not only live together in peace but cooperate in working out a higher and better civilization than has yet been achieved. At the extremes the white and black races face each other. Here in America these two races are charged under God with the responsibility of showing to the world how individuals as well as races, may differ most widely in color and inheritance and at the same time make helpful and even indispensable to each other's well-being and prosperity. This daily true in the South where the black man is found in greatest numbers and the two races are thrown in closest contact. And there today are found black men and white men who are working together in the spirit of Abraham Lincoln to establish in fact, what his death established in principle—that a nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal, can endure.
As we gather on this consecrated spot, his spirit must rejoice that sectional rancues and racial antagonisms are softening more, and more into mutual understanding and effective cooperation. And I like to think that here today, while we dedicate this symbol of our gratitude, that the nation is dedicated anew by its own determination to the last letter the task imposed upon it by the martyred dead that here, it highly resolves, that the humble citizen of whatever country, shall enjoy that opportunity and unhampered freedom, for which the immortal Lincoln gave the last full measure of devotion.
The Fulfillment
And the progress of events confirms this view. Step by step has the nation been making its way forward, the spirit of the great Rmanuctor. And nowhere is this more true than in that section which after years ago seemed least in wood with his spirit and support yet at this hour, in many things, is viling with the rest of the nation toward the fulfillment of his hopes.
Twelve million black Americans share in the recolving of this hour. As yet, no other name so warm the heart or stirs the depth of their gratitude as that of Abraham Lincoln. To him above all others we owe the privilege of sharing as fellow-citizens in the concession of this spot and the dedication of this shrine. In the name of Lincoln twelve million black Americans - pledge their loyalty and their unreserved co-operation in every effort to realize by his martyrdom. With malice toward none, with charity for all; with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, may we, one and all, black and white, both North and South, strive on to finish the work which he so nobly began, to make America an example for all the world of equal justice and equal opportunity for all.

THIRTY-FOUR YRS. CONTINUOUS R. R. TRAIN SERVICE
Wm. H. Coslow, Porter No.
1, Placed On Role Of
Honor By Penn.
COLLEGE OF
SCHOOL OF
TECHNOLOGY
HARRISBURG, Pa. June 7- A remarkable record for service and fidelity was closed here when William H. Coslow, Porter Number One, Harrisburg Station was placed on the "Roll of Honor" on May 1st 1922 with a record of thirty-four years of continuous service with the Pennsylvania Railroad System. Henry as he was known to the traveling public has been a "resident of Harrisburg" for sixty-three years. He was born on January 27, 1857, and his family moved to Harrisburg when he was but two years of age.
He started to work for the Pennsylvania on November 24, 1887, and his ability proven throughout the years was such that the magnificent new station at Harrisburg was opened, he was placed in charge of the "red caps" with the honorary title of Porter Number One.
In recent issue of the Altoona Tribune" Colonel Henry W. Shoemaker spoke editorially about "Henry Coslow" and gave an appreciation of his career at Harrisburg station as follows:
"Patrons of the Pennsylvania Railroad station at Harrisburg were greatly disappointed to learn the W. H. Coulow, red cap porter "Number One" is to retire on age limit the last day of the present month. During twenty-five years of faithful service this old, well-known porter deceived himself to host of travelers by arriving courtesy and marked efficiency. Members of the old families at Harrisburg will miss him, as he has waited, on three generations' in many instances, and travelers have grown up from childhood to look for his genial presence to put them aboard the right trains and straighten out the complicated intricacies of travel. As one traveler remarked, "It is a pity that such persons ought not to be old, such porter not to be limits of service or age, but should be immortal like all worth institutions."
"In all these years 'Number One' has been the friend of the traveling public and by his courtesy, pattiveness and tact, made many complicated situations easy, for he took out the thorns and made travel a bed of roses. His example is a notable one and no doubt it was reflected to fellow workers, white and black resulting in further that spirit of politeness and give and take so noticeably among the employees of the railway. We hope that Porter Coslow will enjoy his well-earned rest to the fullest extent, but his legion of friends among the traveling public will not forget him."
Henry Coulson retires from the active service of the Pennsylvania Railroad with a host of friends in all walks of life. He is personally known to many of the members of the State Legislature, political lenders of the State and the traveling public who use Harrisburg station as a transfer point on trips over the state. Harrisburg Station he will continue in the city of Harrisburg, of which he says he is very proud. His earnings have been carefully invested and he retires to a life of leisure and independence.*

NEW YORK CITY. June 7—Just as Marcus Garvey had started to celebrate the death of his nemesis the Crusader magazine, edited by Cyril V. Briggs, its appearance on the stands again and Garvey almost back in his chair with a gasp which could be heard at Liberty Mall. Briggs will be remembered as the youngster who had nerve enough to question the alms of the self-appointed President of Africa and high prestate of the U. N. I. A. With Claude McKay on side-line bring. Briggs holding down the other side. Owens and Randolph in the rear and a pack of disgruntled former employees (officers and crew of the famous whiskey ship) fighting at random. Marcus Garvey will truly be superman if he can beat a dignified retort. The annual convention of Garvey has started August 11 and will have changed the mouth. It is expected that during this time he will endeavor to make away any misfortune which may have been a result of it.

SATURDAY
By Thos. Atkins
Ah. Saturday! Thou day of joy.
While many, souls thou shalt decay;
Many a boy and tender girl.
Shall sink beneath thy dizzy whirl.
Ah. Saturday! Thou art the crowning spirit of the time.
Thou art the author of many a crime;
Thine eye hast seen many to jail;
Jobs lost and Mild-Summer's Sale.

Tells Of Great Possibilities Of A Young Country, With Ambitious People. Cooperation Of All Christian Organizations Essential To Success.
ENCOURAGEMENT NEEDED FROM THE UNITED STATES
During the brief visit of the Right Rev. A. T. Vernon, Resident Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in South Africa, a representative of the "Advertiser" had an interview with the reverend gentleman on questions affecting the welfare of the native and colored races of South Africa, and obtained some interesting views from the Bishop thereon.
The Bishop spoke of South Africa as a country of tremendous possibilities; for a young country it had gone forward rapidly. He thought the people of South Africa had not let the world outside know of the bigness of the country as regards its resources, and a more generous advertisement would bring in the sort of immigrant as well as bring in capital from other from other countries.
Asked for his views on the industrial problems as they affected the country and native races, the Bishop said people he held no views. He was here by the Bishop of the government as the Bishop of a church controlled by the colored people of America, and he felt it would be a breach of confidence for him to have any political bias or to seek give gratitude advice, as to what should be done in a political way.
"The one thing we seek at all times he added, "is to have our people understand that they must be loyal and in harmony with the Government and stand for law and order. Our mission is purely educative and missionary, desire, and that it is to contribute our work to uplift and betterment of the conditions of the colored and non-European population of South Africa.
"South Africa is a rich country, with unlimited natural resources. I am agreeably surprised at the progress and development here. South Africa is so far away from the centre of things that comparatively little filters through to the world of the events and conditions here. Only a small proportion of the people of the world realize that civilization there is as thoroughly progressive as the civilization we find in Europe. Your great cities and industrial centers give the appearance of our most progressive American cities with the exception of course that we may have larger cities, but in the matter of appointment, diversified interests, orderliness, and general appearance your cities take rank with the best of them."
Invited to give expression to his views on the colored question. Blahpo Verton said: "I hope to be unbiased and to give a thoroughly honest opinion. It may be I have been here long enough to speak as one having authority, but I have attempted to make a study of one of your outstanding problems. The best minds of South Africa, regardless of race or political affiliation, I am sure, are anxiations that South Africa should go forward in her progress. This can be accomplished when all elements of her society have been to have a population of one half million or two million. Europeans going forward steadily, probably half a million colored people of varying degrees of success and millions of natives, many thousands of whom are civilized with a considerable number educated and aspiring and yet countless numbers in heathenism and darkness will not admit of a cohesive progressive effort such as will make for the best interests of South Africa.
What is the remedy?
"I believe is possible to provide a remedy for this situation. An intelligent satisfied man is an asset to any community, and an ignorant dissatisfied man is forever a liability. It is not my purpose to make a white man the slightest effort to discuss the relationship of the race. I believe however, that Christianity and humanity, from which spring the highest motives, as well as enlightened self-interest, demand that in no far as possible the native and colored races should be so equipped mentally, morally and industrially, that they may never become a message to the peace and prosperity of South Africa, but always prove a source of happiness and blessing. This can be accomplished by making the humble man to feel that he is granted full protection of the law and that right living and highest endeavor will have their rewards whether this man be European or non-European."

When Black Meets White
By John Louis Hill
For Associated Negro Press
PSYCHOLOGY OF THE NEGRO
Chapter VI 11th Installment
Few words are more misused than "psychology." Of late it has come into very common usage. Liberal learning is affected by many of untrained or off-repetting the work "psychology" of this book, and the thing has been bandled so much between would be "high-brows" who know nothing of this, the noblest of all sciences, that one who takes it seriously must approach it with fear and trembling.
Psychology is clearly defined as "the science that treats of mental phenomena, and their classification macrophysics," "the macrophysics." The psychology of it is compared with its physical characteristics, color of skin etc., is as much higher as mind is above matter, as soul is superior to body. While the physical man is "fearfully and wonderfully made" it is the mental, spiritual man that is in the "image, likeness of God," coexistent with not. But "A man thinks in his material body, not A man thinks in his heart, so he."
Comprehensively, the solution of the "race problem" lies almost solely within the psychology of the two races involved. What they know about each other, what they think of and feel towards each other must determine their respective attitudes. To know in their entirety the mental capacities and processes of the white and black races, and to be able to clearly set them forth in a task at once too great to undertake. Were we able to do so, much more space than this entire volume would be required. At best, herein we can but offer some hints and clues which may be helpful in pointing the way toward the open road of understanding. The psychology of a race involves its powers of perception, reason imagination, emotion, humor, grief, joy, intuition, memory, etc., together with the capacity of mental development from the combined exercise of all these faculties. The psychological properties of the black and white races necessitate of education. And, judging from the rapid strides made along educational lines within the last fifty years, psychologically speaking the Negroes are an unusual people.
To appreciate this, it is necessary, however, to differentiate between the external process of imparting information, commonly regarded as "education", and that of the internal development, the leading out into a larger measure, of innate powera of being. No race in the history of the world has revealed such possibilities of education in the true sense as has the Negro in America since his liberation from bondage.

SOUTH AFRICA AS SEEN BY BISHOP W. T. VERNON
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7
becomes restless, sullied, and discontented, the State losses, rather than and because of his superior trailing and advantage, be latened to, and gains. He can go among his people in his and their language spread views that do no good.
Skilled Trades For Natives
To my mind, the establishment of industrial schools in South Africa for the native where the latter could not only receive training, but where he could acquire a knowledge of skate trades, would mean much easier training for such people to him and his fellows. I believe also that a closer and better understanding between the various denominational groups in every missionary endeavor would greatly strengthen the hands of the Government and the people generally in their efforts to better the conditions among the native races. If the leaders of the various denominations are suspicious of each other, or feel that there is likely to be an encroachment on the mission grounds of others, then we have duplication opposition misunderstanding and unnecessary waste and loss in missionary endeavor. We need to deal with and for many generations (to come there will be work for all to do in the matter of evangelization and education.
"I believe the best minds of Europeans, those who honestly desire a correct solution of the problem should get into touch, with the educated, sensible native. I think the questions affecting us should be discussed frankly, without reservation and without suspicion. I am sure that many things will be brought to light relative to the mental attitude of the natives that are now hidden because of his fear that to tell the truth will lead him into difficulties. I believe that such a course will mean the blessing to all of the present generation and those to come. Unless an effort is made along these lines, to my mind, it simply means living further apart the European jers and the native elements of South Africa. This divergence of views can only lead to complications in the future. Peace will come by united effort in which each is willing to be considerate. The European may probably not feel he can conceal everything the native desires at once. The native leader must be willing to understand that great cities are not built in a day. As long, however, as the native leader can see that better conditions are coming to his people, that improvement is being made in the situation, whether in the cities, in the mines, or on the farms that the native is in a greater measure receiving the rewards of his toll that effects are being made to provide education far his children, so that they will become decent citizens, that he does have a chance to secure a home and own some land, then I believe a better spirit will come, and where there is discord, discontent, suspicion and distrust, there will be peace, harmony, happiness and prosperity."
Our representative discussed with the Bishop the question of prohibition. "Prohibition in America has come to stay," emphatically declared the reverend gentleman. "Those of us who observe the distress of mothers and wives, the makeheads and humber of children, and the papygacy and utter rule of countless thousands of men, are deeply grateful that we have prohibition. Since prohibition became an assured fact, there is less drunkenness in America, banking accounts are increasing, home buying accounts become more expensive, children are educated, public schools crime has decreased, and the social fabric necessarily has been improved and society elevated. Here and there there may be a law-breaker in the limitoria trust, but the Government are firmly resolved that their law-breakers must go. As an American colored man from my calling as a minister of the Church, preaching transgression I rejoice to see the higher traffic abolished. It has been much for the American Man! He is our hero and he is our hero."
give him facilities for the purchase of and sale of liquor. It would mean that a race of people who are the furthest behind in the matter of education, wealth and advantage, will have an evil handicap which would be constantly dragging him further down. With the restraints of the law, language, and tribal restrictions passing away as they emerge from the darkness into light, and cross over from heathenism to the customs and temptations of civilization they would go down for all time. There may be those who would begin to argue about personal liberty and a man's right to do as he pleases with his own money, but it is the right of those who see the light to bring the light to others. There is a higher and nobler right, and that is to protect the unfortunate and weaker brother even from himself. No man can afford to see another going to destruction and the unfortunate and weaker brother even from himself. No matter how much money may be gained by licensed traffic in liquor, nothing can compensate for the loss of self-respect, self-esteem, morals, and common decency that naturally ensues. To my mind, an appalling situation will come when our native people in South Africa are encouraged in the sale and purchase of drink."
Finally speaking of his impressions of Kimberley, Bishop Vernon said: 'I have found the Europeans quite sympathetic and obliging. The colored and native people have been most hospitable and kind. Their condition, if not the best, is quite the equal to that of any of our people in South Africa. They betray so much of the characteristics of the American Negro as to make one quite comfortable and at home among them. They are thoroughly progressive and an asset to the race. In ambition, high ideals, race loyalty, property acquisition, and those things that make for progress they are unsurpassed by any of our race group in South Africa.'—The Diamond Field Advertiser (Daily)

The Negro has become so much a part of America that there are certain facts regarding his life that we are apt to forget. One is that Africans were brought to this country down to the outbreak of the Civil War, that African lore was thus being continually renewed among the American born Negroes. And another fact is that the slave lived two lives, one as a servant of the whites, and another a life of his own with much that was African in its traditional and its cultural background. This life was despaired on good humorally tolerated by the whites but we are learning that in some respects, it was richer and more original than the white European civilization dominating it.
This collection of folk songs, shows us a little of the Negro's cultural life. It is unsatisfying because with a few exceptions we have only the words, and the words were of the least account. The pastime songs, the dance songs, need the music and the motion. Without this they compare unfavorably with the songs and games of white children. The songs and games that are played by street children, (though the school kids kindergarten and public-school school children) are finished them from our playgrounds are often medieval in their origin and of lovely imagery. Take our May Day songs or "London Bridge." The African songs, as shown in this volume, are poor in vocabulary and some times reminiscent of a Mother Goose tale, as "Goose, Goose, Gander" or "Fatty Cake, Fatty Cake." But this is natural as English was a foreign tongue to the African and he had not as yet made himself the master of it that he is today. If it were not for Mr. Talley's lengthy and admirable study of these rhymes we should not half appreciate them. He interprets for us, for instance, such a song as Jonah's Band Party.
"Setch a kickin' up san!" Jonah's Ban!
"Setch a kickin' up san!" Jonah's Ban!
Han's up sixteen! Circle to de right!
We's swine to git big eatin' here tonight."
This is a dance rhyme, and one must first conjure up the swirling figures in their boisterous dance. The drum, the instrument that was used for the dance in Africa, was absent in America, and so the dancers put happs and feet to the measure, unconciously recalling the boom to which they formerly kept time. This is a "Cali," and "Response" or "Sponse" verse. "Setch a kickin' up san" is a solo and "Jonah's Ban" the response to the rest of the party.
We have this dance rhyme with the music. We are most grateful when ever the music is given.
"De Jaybird jump from lim' to lim' An' he tell Br' Rabbit to do lak him. Br' Rabbit say to de cunnin' elf: 'You jes want me to fall an' kill myself' ".
There are play rhymes where we can guess a little the action accompanying them. Here is one that has the call and sponge. How it was played, we are told, but for a description of a nagging insect it is faintable.

"I fans an' knocks but dey won't go 'way!
"I caint git out'u here.

Fer I caint gt out'n here."
The African transplanted to America as we have said, led two lives. The first was his life at work and with his master's people. The second was when he was able to be with his own. He had little time to play and none to work at the beautiful handcrafts, the clothes that looked the velvet, the decorated cups and wafer jars, the multitude of musical instruments that he had fashioned *in* his old home. He found the fiddle and the banjo and soon learned 'to play them far better than did the whites about him. Quilts, reed instruments, he fashioned himself from the sugar cane, and he rigged up a triangle from an iron clave and pin wires. Full self-expression was rarely possible slaves must not gather together, for the fear of insurrection was always present to the whites. So we have the Spiritual "Sicat Away To Jesus" with its double meaning, seemingly only a hymn' but also, a call to a meeting to be held soon. There was a great deal of this. Mr. Talley tells us, in the slave songs. He gives us one, a pathetic call of the wife to her husband, "The Runaway Slave." There is another runaway slave song that one enjoys.
"I use done killed de boss,
I use knocked down de boss.
I eat un raw goose widout apple-
sauce!
"I Use Run-a-Way Bill.
I knows dey mought kill:
But ole Messer haalt cotch me, an he

WHERE ARE THE BOYS?

NEW YORK CITY, June 7
Where are the bays, who announced Jack Johnson upon his arrival from Laverworth? Here in New York City there was quite an active collector who rushed in Jack's side upon the day of his arrival to share in the excitement the primitive makes of the altitude on the conquest of Jumf. Friss and Tommy Burns. But where are they going? Because the quiet masters in this army of friends who hunted and played for a small piece in the open field of Laverworth.

insured the farmer champion that they were with blim till the last? During his sojourn here shortly after his arrival from the West, Johnson was a commercialized THING, not the smallest bit of sentiment, came from the many camps at which the Big Chief was the idol. How to get the money was the watchword with Jack as the central figure in the game. All manner of things for corrolling the dollars vin the appearance of Jack Johnson were staged, and a few dollars did come the way of the Mighty few; latt these efforts soon petered out. Jack became a true Harlemite and like one of these strange mortals there was nothing unusual about and Barnum's failure but refused to fall over the ladies twice in the same hauls and the ladies twice in the same big affair given at which the former champion was billed to smile down on the populace was one of the biggest failures all times. Jack smile his smile, but it was not the same smile he smoke when he first arrived in New York City. Then it was the Promised Land, but now it is a place from which few if any wires reach Jack, renewing expressions of friendship—the kind which poor John Arthur will never understand is only prompted by the amount he can draw in the box office. It is a lie, the saying that "the older we get the more we learn"; "the few cases, perhaps, but for many it should read, "the older we get the dummer we are."

souls of men. No material thing that any church can possess can be more sacred or half as sacred as the life of man. Aud, yet, there are churches and "pastors" who think so. What a rockery they make of their pretensions. Does God think more of an image of the Virgin-Mary (which by the way, does not in the least resemble the humble and hardy mother of Jesus) than he-things of a Russian baby? Such a God is a Molach.
Those who let the people stare while they buy incense to burn, are plain idifos or hypocrites. And when the people tell us that it is compelling such imposters to "shell out," they make us respect the Russian government.
NEGRO RACE RADICAL
"The Negro race is shot through with radicalism," and is being spurred into action; and it is losing faith in Christianity, and losing faith in politics. The solidarity of the races is being raked, but that, will not answer. Twelve million rats solidified would not be nothing of 12,000,000 human battles, men and women, filled with hatred. I reckon my people to hate nobody.
"The Negro wants the recognition of his place in the brotherhood of man which is his by divine right. He wants one standard of American citizenship applied alike to all. The Negro approves heartily of the movement for inter-racial co-operation because it is the best way to improve the Negro to state his own case and a case he has. No programs, however benevolent, for the solution of racial difficulties, will stay put unless the Negro has a hand in the making of it. And no Negro can lead our group unless he is chosen by our group. He must have confidence. He must hold his place of leadership by our guidance."

JACKSON-JOHNSON BOUT SETTLED FOR JULY 4
Preston News Service
COLUMBUS, O., June 7.—Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion of the world, has been matched to meet Tutt Jackson, the Washington Court House sensation, according to reports which have just been received. The battle is scheduled to take place on July 4. C. O. Ohio on July 4. Arrangements are yet been released for publication, but the match is sure to take place if the National Boxing Commission lifts the ban under which the wily Jack has been placed.
Age Versus Youth
The battle, while not assuming any international proportion, is sure to attract a monster crowd, inasmuch as Johnson, in his prime, was considered the cleverest heavyweight boxer of all times. Young Jackson, frequently called "the terrible Tutt" since his almost absurdist string of knockout victories, has been rapidly in the pugilistic firmement until the present. He is now being seriously considered as a logical opponent for Wilts or Dempsey. The centest on the national holiday will be the age-old battle of age versus youth. The champion is nearing his fortieth birthday. Johnson Jackson is just 21 years old. But Johnson has had years of experience in the ring. And in any fictile debate experience goes a long way.

Many critics are of the opinion that Johnson is in line for the same does as befall the agile, but still dangerous Sam Langford several weeks ago when the Boston pugilist was kicked cold in the fourth round of a scheduled 15-round bout. Others advance the theory that the former champion still retains much of his ring cunning and defensive skill, and that in the event the match does not last to elong will be on his feet at the end of the fray. This question can be answered only when the two men enter the repetent arena against each other in Ohio.
WILL ERECT HUGE ARENA FOR
BIG OHIO MATCH
Preston News Service
COLUMBUS, Ohio, plune 9.—Preparations for the Tutt Jackson-jack Johnson holiday festive debate to be staged at Washington, Court House, Ohio, on the afternoon of July 4, are practically complete, according to latest reports. The proposed bount is creating nation-wide interest, and when the expenence of the two schools of many art step into the ring on that date, it is fully expected that more persons will burn out to witness a species are being built, which, as completed, will have a seating capacity of 30,000 people. It is estimated that the contest will draw in the neighborhood of $100,000 in receipts.
The Ohio Boxing Commission has placed its stamp of approval on the men meeting in the State. The only possible chance of prevention may come from Governor Davis. However, he is an enthusiastic boxing fan and it is believed he will not stop the contest. Opponents to mixed bouts in the state are said to be making a strong effort to have the Governor stop the fight. Those close to Gov. Davis think he will not interfere.

HARRY WILLS BUYS HOME
FRESH NEWS Service
NEW YORK CITY, June 7—Harry Wills, "The Shoe," has recently shown the public that he is a firm believer. In the old image that it is good to "make him lay the sun shines." A few weeks ago the "Bronze Panther" bought himself a home in Harlem which is further proof that while Harry is happy, or was so in the days when he did his work "long shore" he isn't going to continue to be the victim of these rats which infect Jarllem today and known by the term landlords.
The colored fighter, while waiting for his chance to meet Jack Dempsey, continues to keep in training, but the pugilistic horizon is without the leastsemblance of any sign of a Dempsey-Wills fight and it must be very annoying to Harry to go through the daily grind hoping for that which would have been his bit he were not unfortunate (?) enough to be of African descent. In the meantime they are allowing Filipino students to enter the United States naval and military academy while the announcement of a real American of color to enter creates the South, East and West in "The brave, free and the home of the brave." Now would we have the timeliness after reading of the lynchings of recent data to arise and change the sentence to "The land of the spire and the home of the knave"—nix! nix! We leave that for exiled Europeans with all the chances in the world to enjoy the things which America's most faithful black citizens are denied.
Wills has an awful brace to go up against in his efforts to meet Demosey. "Watchful waiting" may win on, but the course seems so hard and unfair. Patience is indeed a virtue.
Montreal Is Still After
The Wills-Dempsey Match
Preston News Service
NEW YORK CITY. June 7.—Frank
Flourney has announced that negotiations for a Wills Dempsey bong in Montreal, Canada, are not finished, by a long shot. He claims that the original date selected "Dominion Day, July 1st" has been set back, because of inability to give the match sufficient publicity to make it a success, but Canadian sportsmen are clamoring for a match between Wills and Dempsey, and it is just possible that the fight will be staged in the Velotrope, providing Dempsey can be persuaded to sign. Wills, it is reported, is anxious to meet the challenge under practically any terms.
KID NORFOLK GETS DECISION
OVER JOHN LESTER JOHNSON
Associated Negro Press
COVINGTON, Ky., June 9—Kid Norfolk, the battering ram of New York City, outpointed John Lester Johnson, generally considered as the best heavy weight of color next to Harry Willis, last Friday night before a record attendance. The fight was one of the best ever staged in this town, both men displaying the best that was in them, and fighting hard all the way. The contest was so close, that many persons in the audience were of the opinion that it should have been a draw, but the referee's decision, awarding the bout to Norfolk, was popularly received.
Norfolk's wonderful showing has raised the question as to his chances of a match against Harry Greb of Pittsburgh, Pa., present light heavyweight champion. Norfolk is one of the few men in recent years who has been able to outpoint the Smoky City jumping jack, and many fight fans are of the opinion that Greb should clearly show his superiority in his class before he meets Georges Carpentier, the French idol. In a match for the light heavyweight championship of the world.

ANOTHER COLORED REVUE
NEW YORK CITY, June 7—When and where will it end, the deponent sayeth not. We "sundown" folks continue to be the children of the hour in the theatricals in the Empire state and Broadway seems to have gone wild over us. They have even written a new song and called it "Broadway Is Getting Darker Every Day."
Opening on Saturday night at the National Winter Garden featuring Henry Creemer and Turner Layton in "Strut Miss Lizzie" is the latest move to bring entertainment to Gothamites. The title of the new creole revue is taken from the song of the same name by Creemer and Layton. It will be remembered that this song created a sensation throughout the country. From what we have seen at the rehearsals the show should hit 'em from the start and knock 'em cold. The National Winter Garden is located on the lower East Side. It is the Ghetto, and Jews, nothing but Jews can be seen on every hand. Many a colored brother in Harlem would not know just where this place is located if suddenly promised Rockefeller's wealth, but within the next few weeks Jacob, Isaac, Marris, Sarah, and Mrs. Rosenstein will be rubbing silences with Uncle Tom and Aunt Jamar's children. It is believed that this production in a locally where a colored person almost a curiosity will bear fruit for the promoters, and you do not have to be told the ultimate objective is Broadway.
The chances of "Strut Miss Lizzie" going to Broadway are much better than those held out by Goldberg and Martini for the Smarter Set Company headed by Whitney and Tutt; yes, even greater than the chances dimly held by the brothers for the Cresole Follier-Rewitt in the shadow of death at the Lafayette. Many are called, but few are chosen; we shall watchfully wait and see who will ARRIVE first in the theatrical promised land—Broadway.
