MOTON RE-ELECTED PRES. NAT'L. BUSINESS LEAGUE Norfolk Session Was Alive With Business, Activities. President's Able Address, Business Bureau And Endorsing Of Anti-Lynching Bill Among The Features. NORFOLK, Va., Aug 21—After three days session the National Negro Business League closed Friday August 18th The convention is said to be the most successful in the history of the organization from the point of interest and attendance. Some of the former prominent figures were absent but no one would notice it except those who were looking for them. A trim to Hampton on Saturday was enjoyed by the delegates, who were entertained in real "Hampton style." The people of Norfolk were generous in their hospitality to the delegates and visitors. The local committee was alert to their duty, and took advantage of the opportunity to provide social entertainments when ever an interval in business occurred. Outstanding Features Among the most outstanding features of the League's session was the address by Dr. Moton at the Armory, Dr. Moton took advantage of the presence of Lieut. Governor of Virginia and a nice mixed audience to tell of the social equality big-a-boo and denounce bunching and Jim-crow-car system in the South. He did not "mince" wordlessness; he looked at Governor West in the eye. That the speaker went home as was intended by the speaker, all who heard it agreed. Dr. Moton strongly advocated the passage of the Dyer anti-knapping 'bill during this talk. Five thousand dollars was raised to support a constructive program. It is understood that a traveling representative of the League will be put in the field to boost Negro business. Watt Terry of the Brooklyn were made by Watt Terry of the Brooklyn by E. S. Brown of Philadelphia, L. T. Montgomery of Mound Bayon, Miss., and others. A little "ripple" was seen by some when worms were in the air that Fred R. Moore, editor of the New York Age, lay eyes on the president's chair of the League over and everything worked out harmoniously. Dr. R. R. Motson, president; honorary president, J. C. Napier; Nashville vice presidents, Charles Banks of Mound Bayon, Miss; C. H. Brooks of Philadelphia, R. Church of Memphis, W. L. Cohen of New Orleans, L. Willett of Savannah, D. M. Roddy of Memphis, Tennessee; Mrs. A. A. Malone of St. Louis; honorary vice president, Mrs. Booker T. Washington Tuskegee, Ala; secretary, A. L. Holsey, Tuskegee; treasurer, John L. Webb Hot Springs; registrar, F. H. Gilbert Brooklyn; assistant registrar, R. E. Penn, Temple transportation agent, C. A. Barnett, Chicago; chairman of executive committee, C. C. Scaulding, Durham, N. C. The report of the Committee in charge of the survey of general conditions throughout the country was read by Chailman, W. S. Andrews of Baltimore, Md. In spite of the hard times the economic conditions of the Negro is not without encouraging features. Like the rich he has met with business failures and has suffered losses but apparently not in so great a proportion as others. In some instances failures have resulted in improved business methods generally. It is especially significant that in most cases Negro themselves have been able to effect the reorganization and improvements. In the building and other mechanical trades Negroes have been able not only to hold their own, but in some sections have made advances—and the continued migration of the colored people to the North would seem to indicate that Negro labor is also making good in other competitions of that section. In the commercial world the Negro has made marked advances. We have chains of stores representing hundreds of thousands of dollars. Members of the Race are entering into every field of endeavor especially in the banking and the insurance business. We have banked in various sections of the corporate life insurance companies are carrying on their books more than five hundred million dollars with ample reserve for the protection of every policy in force. In farming activities the Negro is holding his own to a remarkable degree in spite of the handicap and the difficulties that he daily encounters. Five years ago the opposition that he has had, could have made the progress that he has made and could have kept his courage under such adverse circumstances. The St. Louis Argus HONORED BY BUS.

Published In The Interest Of Colored People EDITOR WILSON AND PHIL BROWN COME TOGETHER Settle Their Differences In Real Pugilistic Style. Mr. Brown Accused Of Holding Up Newspaper Men When In Charge Of Publicity In Chicago 2 Years Ago. Phil Goes Down In Second Round And Begs His Opponent For Mercy. WASHINGTON D. C. Aug. 21, 1996 one of the recent happenings at the Capitol City which has quietly been the subject of much gossip among the greater and lesser lights, was the settling of a controversy between Wilson of the Washington Eagle and Phil of the who holds the position in the Department of Labor as "Conciliator." It is said that Editor Wilson, like most of the Editors of the country, accused "Phil" of "holding up" the Editors during the time the latter had charge of the Publicity of the Republican Party at Chicago two years. "The holding up" as interpreted by some of the newspaper men means anything from using the money which should have gone for publicity to his own use, down to petty graft. At any rate, Phil who weighs a better than 200 pounds decided to an age ago but he would make an example of him. would score the life out of the other editors who have been constantly accusing him of wrong doings, by administering a knock out blow right square in the face at first sight. Just what fate brought the two together this memorial occasion no one seems to know, except by chance, but both were ready for businesg. Only a few words were exchanged during which Phil like Goliath of old, threatened to make a supper of the Editor in short order style, unless some retractions were made. But the editor, who was very kind, like little David kept his eye on Phil's "bean" and remembering his school days, ducked Phil's blow, and landed squarely between the "Giant's eyes following close with blows to the stomach which almost "winned" the gentleman from the Kentucky. A bystander who interfered called it "Round one, where upon the belferguard came a few words which would hardly be heard in a Sunday School, and went at it in price fighting style, Wilson, this time taking the lead, landing right and left to face which brought the blood profusely from his opponent's nose whereupon Phil cried for mercy when he found himself sprawling on the ground. This ended the battle and Wilson hurried from the scene and a bystander assisted Phil home. Strange Story Told As a result of this scrap, it is reported that Phil Brown has been confined to his room for more than a week, telling those who inquire, that an automobile accident came while he was driving. Except for a few bruises to his fast, Editor Wilson is looking for another "Giant" to attack him. Comments Commenting on the incident, one of the men who.was at Chicago during Phil's administration who does not want his name mentioned, said Phil, by his double dealings got the bureau in bad, and complimented Wilson for landing a knock-out blow to Phil, adding "the sooner the race get rid of such men as Phil Brown, the better off we shall be. We need a few funerals of the right sort in times like these." U. S. ATTORNEY-GENERAL DENOUNCES THE KU KLUX Daugherty Terms. It "A Distinct Menace To Decent Government." SALEM, Ore. Aug. 23. United States Attorney-General Daugherty refers to the Ku Klux Klan as a "distinct menace to decent government," in a letter concerning "concerning the menace against the klan in Queens." The letter replies to one from Gov. Olcott thanking the Federal department for its co-operation in the prosecution of men said to be klan members for alleged outrages in Jackson County. "I think you and your assistants are not public generally as well as to your own State in endeavoring to stamp out a distinct menace to decent government," says Daugherty's letter. Dr. Amanda V. Gray, former Executive Secretary Wheater Branch, C.A. and party who are visiting Europe, and called on the Pope recently. ST.LOUIS,MO.,FRIDAY.AUGUST 25.1922 MAN KIDNAPPED BADLY TREATED Masked Mob Performs Brutal Operation On Victim And Warns Him To Leave Town. Ku Klux Klan Said To Be Responsible For Crime. Special SHREVEPORT, La., Aug. 21. After being acquitted of a charge of making insulting remarks to a white woman here a few days ago, Jesse Badly mistreated by a mob who kidnapped him as he left the court room. In the prosecution of Jernagan, the woman in the case refused to give damaging testimony before the court and the defendant was discharged. It had been learned by members of the mob, who were "persecuting the Negro that he would not swear falsely in the case, hence everything was arranged to do their dirty work as soon as the prisoner was discharged. When Jernagan left the courtroom he was seized by masked men, thrust into an automobile and driven several miles away. He was forced to submit to an operation which was crudely and inhumanly performed. After "castrating" their victim the mob returned him to the city, dumped him out of the car near the front of Charity Hospital, where he entered and is now a patient. It is reported that he has a slight chance of recovery. Jermagan at the hospital says, he was told by members of the mob that they were members of the Ku Klux Klan, and was warned to leave the city, which he declares he will do if he recovers. ROYS RUN AWAY FROM CITY FARM Mistreatment On Part Of Caretaker Is Said To Be The Cause. Superintendent Unaware Of Actual Conditions. Head Of Institution Wants Boys To Be Fairly Treated At All Times. Admits That There Is Room For Improvement. Much has been said about the conditions at Bellefountain Farms as it affects the unfortunate boys who are sent there as wards of the city. Following the attempt to escape of fourteen boys from the farm wild stories have been about as to cruelties an inhuman treatment inflicted upon the unwelcome boys at the farm. A few days ago a representative of the Argus visited the farm and interviewed the Superintendent, Mr. Carl H. Noest, and a few of the boys. Mr. Soest is a man of excellent training and spirit; thoroughly human in his dealings, and the boys all feel that he is their friend and protector. Yet despite the fatherly interest on the part of Mr. Soest, there is strong evidence of unfitness pointing to one A. D. Heckel a caretaker at Cottage No. 6. As at all institutions it is pretty hard to determine to any mixture of unfitness in some of the boys even in the presence of the officers' toll of mistreatments. A summary of the cause for most of the present complaints and dissatisfaction on the part of the boys may be attributed to the downright menness of A. D. Heckel. That Heckel was a vertigant truant, uncoquintined with the hardship and aggrieved have been brought up, is shown in the new testimonies a few of which are shown below. Heckel was formerly a policeman at the Southland Station and has spent a large portion of his life, where he was born in a rugged region in the Kentucky Mountains. Three Still Missing Of the fourteen boys, who escaped, three are still missing. Nine of the boys have been caught and taken back by fast fighter after others have been caught. The escape was made possible by the ingenuity of one boy who brought along a pair of pilots from the manual training shop with which he opened the window latch on the southeast wing of the building. Sheets were then torn and tied together for a rope. One boy was hurt in falling, the rope having been cut. It is reported that the parents of one boy went out to visit their son. This same boy was later, for some charge brought before his honor, Mr. Heckel, who said: "Your mother came out to see her little darling this morning. You hadn't been beaten for a long time before, but you got a good one this morning." To smack a boy on his back with his blue grass hand almost with chap down. N a common occurrence. Several boys were doing chores around the cottage one afternoon recently, among them peeling potatoes. One boy said: "Jesus Christ, I am afraid to have overheard the boy and peel to have overheard him." DR. BOYD DIES AT NASHVILLE Secretary Of National Baptist Convention Publishing Board, Passes Away At A Ripe Old Age. Special to The Argus. Nashville, Tenn., Aug. 24—Dr. R. H. Boyd, one of the foremost men of our race, died a this residence on Heiman Street last night at the ripe age of 87 years. The death of no other citizen here could make a deeper impression upon the hearts of the people of both races, than that of Dr. Boyd. His life closes with a most remarkable career in the religious circles of this country. In the early days, when little encouragement was given those who chose the religious field as their line of endeavor, Dr. Boyd succeeded in establishing the National Baptist Publishing House, which today is the largest of its kind in the country operated by our people, furnishing printed matter of every description to religious workers throughout this and foreign lands. Unfit his death, Dr. Boyd served as secretary of the publishing board of the National Baptist Convention. A year later, he and host of other relatives survive him. Funeral arrangements had not been perfected when this story was released. UNIFORM RANK KNIGHTS PYTHIAS ANNIVERSARY The Uniform Rank Knights of Pythias, under the direction of Gen A. S.

An unusually attractive program has been prepared for this service. The funeral sermon will be preached by Rev O. C. Maxwell, the pastor, who is noted for his eloquence and forcible address. Owing to the great revival of interest in this department, a record-breaking attendance of members and friends is expected. WHITE SOLDIER DESERTS TO MARRY COLORED GIRL GMAHA. Neb., Aug. 21. — Love, blind love played its true role last week when a white soldier married a Colored girl of this city, and defied the law against "desertion" by remaining with her over the prescribed time and is now facing life sentence in the court martial at the local barracks. Holmer Homerickhouse, a soldier at Fort Des Moines deserted the army and married a Colored girl. Sadie Griffith, on the 16th of this month. Rev. Saunders, a Colored-minister of one of the churches of the Southeastern section of the city performed the ceremony. Rev. Saunders received a certificate of respect from the Moines last Monday relative to the legality of the marriage. On Tuesday the minister received another telephone call to the same effect, asking him to appear at the court martial trial, which was Wednesday morning. The soldier disappeared from the fort and donned civilian clothes only a few days before the Southwest second street until his matrimonial ship was upset by intruders, as he thought. The penalty in a case of desertion carries with it- death in most cases. WOMAN ASKS VOTERS TO DEFEAT VARDAMAN Preston News Service JACKSON, Miss. Aug. 23—Miss Bell Kearney, a defeated candidate for Senate from Mississippi, has issued a statement asking the voters of the state to defeat James K. Vardaman in the runoff* primary on September 5. The solid sense of the country would be that the state could be succeeded in the State by a demagogue of Vardaman's stripe." The Negro too does not want/ Vardaman in the Senate again. It had enough to tolerate Pat Harrison. The design to take chance on Hubert D. Stephens. Vardaman in a blundering to the Negro and a disgrace to the Nation. We live in deeds, not in rescuers; to thought not in brains. In feeling not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart/thanks. He most lives. Who thinks most, feels the collect, feels the beat. C.H.TURPIN WINS NOMINATION ON VOTE RECOUNT Fourth District Constable Scores Victory For The Race. Had Been "Counted Out" In The Election Commissioners' Office. Walker Given 255 Votes Illegally. Turpin Ahead By 168. Crittenden Clark Retraits Official Standing As Republican Nominee For Justice Of The Peace. Two Candidates For Constable In The Fourth District And One In The Fifth. As a result of the contest filed by Chas. H. Turpin, who was defeated for the Republican nomination for Constable in the Fourth District, according to the official returns, there will be two Negro candidates for Constable in the Fourth instead of one as was first reported. All of the Negro Candidates made some gains in the recount, but Turpin's victory is regarded as the biggest because he was actually "smeared out" in the office of the Election Commissioners according to reports. It is somewhat of a surprise to most of us that the tabulators would have taken the share of counting on us. Turpin, because he is too well known as the "fighting contest," the account gave Turpin 168 votes over Robert E. Whiker who lost 255 votes. The board immediately certified to Turpin's nomination and the official papers were sent to the Circuit Clerk's office late Thursday afternoon. Strange as it may appear, all the errors in tabulation were against Turpin and in favor of Robert Walker, a white candidate. They were made, not by prefect elecrutis officials, but by embycrutis elecrutis officers of the office tabulated wrongly the答案 which the precinct officials had reported correctly. Chesney was quite a surprise to many in view of the fact that it could hardly be expected that Clark had any advantage in the count. Mr. Clark made a hard, but clean fight for the nomination, but declared at all times that he was a good loser. In as much as it has been shown that Clark is the choice of the Republican voters as one of the Justices of the Peace of the Fourth District to the satisfaction of Mr. McChesney, it is hoped that he (McChesney) will join heart and soul and help elect Clark in November just as the Negroes have done for him. Y. W. C. A. NEEDS FUNDS A Direct Appeal Is Made To The Public For Assistance. To the Citizens of St. Louis and Generous Friends of the Young Women's Christian Association, The Phyllis Whentley Branch is posing a crisis, possibly the greatest since its organization. During March, 1922, the financial budget of $7,000 was launched and not quite a half of that amount as yet has been paid. We have at present a deficit of $2,580 on our cafeteria and dormitory. Crooks Are Fired Following their action nullifying Walker's nomination and declaring Turpin nominated, the members of the Board of Election Commissioners summarily dismissed "for good of the service." two of their office clerks, who had been engaged in the official count of the votes cast in the contest for the constableship in the Fourth District. The two clerks are Otto Ens. 2339 Green River, and Robert H. Ricks, 2581 Easton avenue. (Dem.) The count as it now stands in favor of Turpin and Langton Harrison, two being nominated in the Fourth District, is Harrison, 1719; Turpin, 1694, and Walker, 926. The recount by small errors deducted forty-eight fro Turpin's old count, leading Walker's count 255. Walker lost seventy-seven votes in the Sixth Ward of which sixteen precincts are included in the Fourth District. In lost twenty-one votes in the Sixth Ward, the only precinct of the ward which is in the district. In the Seventh Ward, where the district includes eleven precincts, Walker lost 157 votes. The Seventh Ward showed the most glaring discrepancies between the tally sheets from the precincts and the abstract sheets made in the office. When the count is completed at each principe the judge brings in duplicate statements bearing the number, writtent, and of votes counted for each candidate. Mistakes Impossible Two clerks, read off these numbers to four others, who make the entries on large sheets for addition when the district is completed. According to members of the board, mistakes are impossible, since the numbers are call-backs. If the figures were read incorrectly the clerks who had the precinct statements should have caught the mistakes in the verification. In the Seventh Precinct of the Sixteenth Ward all four large total sheets gave Walker 46 votes, while in the recount the precinct tally sheets was found only to give him 25. In the Seventh Precinct of the Seventeenth Ward gave him 44 votes, the tally from the precinct reading 34. Ten votes were added in the Third Precinct, Walker receiving 35, when only entitled by the tally to 25. The most glaring mistake found in the recount was in the return from the Fifth Precinct of the Seventeenth Ward, the tally entitling Walker to 18 votes, the tally giving the clerk the gift him 100 votes. Twenty votes were added in the Eighth Precinct 10 in the Teenth Precinct and 10 in the Eleventh Precinct. Langton Harrison who led the field for Constable gained 15 votes on the official count. There was no contest against Ira Dorser, who won in the Fifth District for Constable, nor Walhall M. Moore who was nominated to the State Legislature. This gives the race five candidates on the Republican ticket. Criticism Clark White A Square Deal For Every Man PAGES PRICE 5 CENTS PIN WINS ATION ON RECOUNT Scores Victory For The Race.

Y. W. C. A. NEEDS FUNDS A Direct Appeal Is Made To The Public For Assistance. To the Citizens of St. Louis and Generous Friends of the Young Women's Christian Association: The Phyllis Wheatley Branch is now facing a crisis, possibly the greatest since its organization. During March, 1922, the financial budget of $7,000 was launched and not quite a half of that amount as yet has been paid. We have at present a deficit of $2,500 on our cafeteria and dormitory, when passing 37 young women and girls, not including the staff. We were compelled to close our cafeteria during the past week and our quarters will be forced to vacate their quarters by September 1st if aid is not forthcoming within the next few days. Friends, the Young Women's Christian Association is yours. You have kept the doors open for ten years, and now will at this most crucial time in the history of its organization then these young women from its doors?

BAPTIST CONVENTION MAY NOT BE HELD AT LOS ANGELES, CALIF. Executive Board To Hold Conference To Decide Practicability In View Of The Railroad Strike. Dr. J. Francis Robinson, field secretary of the National Baptist Convention, passed through St. Louis Thursday enroute from Cambridge, Mass., to Memphis, Tennessee, to attend a meeting of the executive board called by President E. C. Morris. The special meeting is for a conference to decide whether it is practical to take the convention next month to Los Angeles, Cal. In view of the present railroad strike: A DECISION IN GOLF CASE EXPECTED SOON The mandamus suit filed some time ago compel Park Commissioner Fred W. Pruitt issue golf permit to Albert Howard, appointed to have a hearing in a short time. In filing his answer to the original suit, the Park Commissioner set forth as a reason for arbitrarily denying Howard the permit, was that sufficient number of Colored people had played golf to play golf to justify the establishment of golf links for their accommodation. This answer is regarded as a bimary excuse, and Howard through his attorneys Bass and How with others to the Times Building, have died as a result which it is not true that Howard is in charge of the building, and the fact that others have not signified their desire to play, has nothing to do with this case. And further states that he has not at any time requested the North Committee to provide additional proof as to present paris and not merely an evidence for the double, as a witness has the right to plea, requested only by the rules governing the matter and lies as required in an answer. It is however between him and Howard the plaintiff the plaintiff the defendant the plaintiff the defendant is more interested in the matter.

Automobile School Opens For Colored Men. The opening of the Central Automobile and Tractor School of Pittsburgh, Kan., is in full accord and keeping with the National Movement for the Advancement of the Colored People. This is indeed commendable and worthy of special mention. This great institution has been admitting colored men for about three years and their graduates have been so successful that this coming year the students will be limited to colored only. The instructors are the best trained men that can be found—both colored and white. More than one hundred and fifty thousand dollars have been spent in building and equipment. This is the only school in the country anywhere where our colored men are getting a square deal by being taught the things that they will be called upon to do as auto mechanics, electricians, auto salesmanship and expert drivers of cars. This school deserves the patronage of all our men and boys everywhere, especially those that are inclined toward automobile mechanics. Only those who really and truly expect to take that training should ask for their free catalog, as thousands of inquiries are being made for information: If you expect to attend that school, be sure to mention where you read this article.

IN MEMORIAM In loving memory of our dear sister and aunt, Mattle James, who departed this life one year ago, August 21, 1921. Today recalls that memory, Of our loved one gone to rest; And those who think of her today, Are the ones who loved her best. Time rolls on—it will not stay; How we feel since that sad day; With no one, kind, loving or true, How hard it is to live without you. But there was an angel band in heaven That was not quite complete; So God had to take you dear, To fill that vacant seat. Peace had been promised you, Tis sweet to call your name; In life we loved you dearly, In death we do the same. Sadly missed by the family. IN MEMORIAM In memory of Sister Jessie Jones, who departed this life Aug. 23, 1921. If I had thought thou couldst have died, I might not weep for thee; But I forgot when by thy side That thou couldst mortal be. It never through my mind has passed, That the time would eer be over. When I on thee should look my last, And thou should smile no more. How mournful it seems in broken dreams, The memory of the day, When Icy Death hath sealed the breath Of this dear form of clay. Oh, there at last life's trials pass, We meet you Jessie once more; Your feet have trod the path of God, Not lost, but gone before. Sadly missed by sister and brother, BELLE DUYALL and JEWETT MILLER. IN MEMORIAM In memory of our dear one, Gussein Smith Talbot, who died in St. Louis, Aug. 29, 1918. "Oh for the touch of a vanished hand, And the sound of a voice that is stilled."

IN MEMORIAM In memory of Mrs. Jessie Jones, who departed this Life August 23, 1821, leaving to mourn their loss a husband, sister, brother and a host of friends. Calm on the bosom of thy God.

No longer fear in die. SAUL E. JONES. Middletown.

DOYLE'S TONIC A General Tonic For Rundown Systems, Coughs Colds. Price $1.25. Why seek another climate? Why exile yourself from the dear ones at home? Doyle's Tonic can build you up when all climates fail. Listen to this Ex-Postoffice clerk and this Motorman: Mr. John J. Doyle, Louis, Missouri. I am writing you in regards to the great benefit I derived from your wonderful tonic. I had lost my health completely, my nerves were shattered beyond cure. I was forced to give up my position in the Post Office as clerk. The doctors said I had gone into decline and my only hope for recovery was to seek another climate. For months, I had no appetite and coughed continually. I had fallen away to a shadow. When a relative heard of your tonic and brought me a bottle, insisting upon my taking it. I will say positively that after the first two or three doses I felt a change for the better. I continued to take it and now I am a well man, and weighing more than ever. Mr. John J. Doyle: For the past three (3) years have suffered with Bronchial Asthma, a constant cough. The doctors said they had done all they could and said I had to go to another climate. I could not sleep at night for wheezing...was run down and weak. I have taken five (5) bottles.

Also this 72 year old Lady: Mr. J. Doyle. Dear Sir. For two and a half years I have suffered day and night with bronchial troubles. The tubes seemed to have closed almost completely. I was unable at times to get my heath, and could be heard wheezing throughout the house. Some nights I felt as if I could not live through the night. I had the doctor until all the money I had was used. I was very weak and nervous from loss of appetite and sleep. Just at the very time when I was confined to the bed, the Lord who is ever mindful of our needs sent a friend to me with this tonic. After taking 4 of 5 doses the phlegm was released and I could breath freely. I have now used 2 bottles and have so greatly benefited that at the age of 72 I am thinking of going out to work.

LIFE IS WHAT WE MAKE IT Sitting-alone one day in thought, Memories of the past to my mind wight; Of the pleasant days that are gone for are. Will they return to me? Nay, Nay, Nay. Just three years ago from nie was taken My only son, a love that was un- shaken. A love that only a true mother can know. How the heart is pierced by such a blow. My heart will never cease to love My angel boy, that is in Heaven above; A thought then came to me, so clear "The boy was God's, living with you here." Life is what we make it, Yes, its true O friend! I've found this statement true. This world is God's so beautiful and fair With singing birds and flowers every where. My trip in St. Louis has been one of pleasure. My brother's kindness has been with out measure: "Boots" as he is called is a great man to me, And other friends have made my stay pleasant, See! My sincere prayer as I leave him now That he will to the Savior's mandates bow; For many await us on the beautiful shore, Where peace reigns forever more. They were put to beautify and make us glad. Let's make life happy though some- time we're sad: What counts in this life is what we do. Then to God, thyself and friend be true. We can only pass but once this way. Leave nothing for tomorrow that can be done today: Living for Christ as the days come and go. Doing our best, good seeds to sow. An original Poem, by Mrs. M. F.

The York Rite Masons are the only colored Masons that are incorporated in the State of Missouri; and the only one that can be, for the law is that, not two societies can exist in the same state, under the same name, except one or the other is begus, therefore the York Rite Masons have been investigated by the Court and found to come within the laws of the United States and the laws of the State of Missouri and incorporated them.

Too many times we have discovered a "fearless" writer, an "incomparable" orator, a "Christ-like" minister or another "credit to his race" has developed into an egregious ass, full of vanity and greed, but William Pickens is quietly, fearlessly and effectively doing some outstanding constructive work. The Garvey movement, in point of numbers of followers and probably also in point of financial returns, represents about the biggest chance for Negro leader opportunists in existence William Pickens, following the highest, traditions of *Journialism*, has steadily pointed out whatever was good in the Garvey movement. Dr. Pickens gave credit to *Garvey* when every one of Pickens own associates were at definite outs with Garvey. To some people Pickens-Garvey attitude looked like opportunism. To those who have read Pickens's masterly criticism of Garvey's Ku Klux Klan activities, Dr. Pickens's whole Garvey attitude is explained as fearless honesty of the first order.

Addressing an audience in the south recently, a white Min- ister of some prominence said; “ninety-five per cent of the people of-the south are opposed to mob violence," which was met with seemingly hearty applause. The minister did not explain according to report, how-he could prove the assertion, in View of the fact that-mob violence is‘going on daily in the south tinmolested and unchecked. Since hearing this statement, we have studied it from many angles, but for the life ofus, we cannot reduce our thinking facul- ties to the point of reasoning that this minister was telling the fruth or anything akin to the truth. We hold no malice against the American white man because we were slaves to some of them at one time in this country. It is not what the white man has’ done, nor who we have heen in the past.

MOTON'S ADDRESS TO THE NAT'L BUSINESS LEAGUE Tells Members "This Year Finds Our Organization Face To Face With Largest Opportunity For Service That Has Been Presented To It Since Its Foundation." Says Business Is A Real Guage Of Progress Of A Race. Advises Organization Of Every Group And Class Into Distinctive Groups With Own Officers And Affiliated With League. THE PEOPLE'S PAPER PART TWO PRES. MO Tells Members "This Year Fie To Face With Largest Oppor Been Presented To It Since I Is A Real Guage Of Progress zation Of Every Group And With Own Officers And Affili DR. ROBERT R. MO The meeting of the National Negro Business League this year finds our organization face to face with the largest opportunity for service that has been presented to it since its foundation. The aftermath of the war is presenting to Negroes everywhere increasing opportunity for their individual advancement, and for effective cooperation with each other in those things which make for the advancement of the race as a whole. In no direction is this more true than in the matter of business enterprise. Some people sometimes speak slightly of business and money-making, but, do you know, my friends, that it is not so exacting a test of any man's real capacity, both for individual initiative and for cooperative effort, as this thing we call "business" the capacity for making and using money. Business then, is a real guage of progress of a race, a test of its capacity for progress, of its ability to survive where competition is restless and searching. A review of the Negro business since our last meeting shows some reversals along with a record of very substantial achievement. But it is reassuring to note that even these reverses, when compared with the total number of failures throughout the country do not in any way reflect discredit upon the business capacity of the race; as a matter of fact the percentage of failures among Negro business men during last year has been considerably less than the percentage for the country at large. At the same time the expansion of successful enterprises, has exceeded anything previously recorded in the history of Negro business. As we enter from a new year in the work of the National Negro Business League, I wish to emphasize the importance of Systematic Organization and a Definite Program, matters which are absolutely essential to our continued existence and our efficiency in promoting business enterprises in the race. I am at this time suggesting to the officers and members of the Executive Committee—that we make certain adjustments in our organization to systematic organization and the work of the officers make possible a more effective cooperation in the various phases of its work. As a first step in this direction, the effort should be made to encourage the organization of every group and class of business enterprises among our race into distinctive groups with their own officers which shall at the same time be affiliated with the National Negro Business League in that is true of the National Negro Press Association, the Negro Bar Association, the Farmers Association and the Association of Hotel Owners Men. In this way we should organize the real estate men, the druggists, the grocers, the proprietors of barber shops, of shoe repair shops, caterers, hotel proprietors, garage owners and others in every line of independent business. The Tallors Association has already decided to affiliate with the League; and under the leadership of Mr. J. A. Jackson of "The Billboard," the managers of the County Fair are to be organized this year, and with the cooperation of Mr. Jackson and others we are to add the managers of Moving Picture Houses. There is clearly a large field for development in this direction into which the National Negro Business League should enter immediately. An illustration of the further possibilities in this direction is furnished in the drug line. There are in the United States today more than 1000 drug stores operated by Negros, all of which have a very definite need of certain preparations and articles of trade common to this line of business. The organization of this body of men would at once so regulate this trade as to furnish the basis for maintenance and expansion of larger drug stores, and to supply this trade. Already there exist in Philadelphia a drug manufacturing concern established and operated by a graduate chemist from one of the foremost institutions of the country. Dr. William Fisher of Philadelphia is the proprietor of this establishment which in a very proper way is seeking to supply this demand among Negro druglists. The Program Committee has invited Dr. Fisher to give to the League some account of his business there and of its success with which he has met its establishment of every Negro drug, gas throughout the country. I am sure that this enterprise could be developed to such proportions as would make it a paying investment not to Dr. Fisher, but to all the other drugists who cooperate with him. This is the method already in use by the Rexall stores and other lines of cooperative business. The undertakers are using this method now, and to Memphis, Tennessee, there is a coffee factory unimpaired and operated by Negros that is supplying this line of this shop by Negros druglists. And so successfully has it been operated, that is is planning a still greater expansion of its business. Mr. Franklin or Mr Wilkerson, the President and Secretary of the Undertakers Association can tell you more of this project. I mention these as examples of what may be done in many lines of business after affective organization. Such a step I carried out, would ing of the National League. This annual meeting would then be featured by strong sectional sessions for the various lines affiliated with the League where more and much needed attention would be given to the technical side of each kind of business. The general sessions could then be devoted to those matters of general interest dealing with capitalization, expansion cooperation and other topics common to every line of business enterprise. We have people who have individuality and unity so happily inter-related as to extend greatly the usefulness of the National League and make it a still greater factor among all the forces working for the economic progress of the race. Out of such a policy there must naturally grow a definite program. I wish now to place the chief features of that program before you. First; the effective organization of the three bureaus which were approved last year at Atlanta. I refer to the Bureau of Business, the Bureau of Publication and Cooperation, and the Bureau of Health. Let me emphasize particularly the Bureau for Business Promotion, because it is fundamental. At each of the last two meetings of the League I have placed before you the urgent need there is for some fund to be available for tiding over our solvent-business enterprises during periods of business depression and for supplying the capital needed for the expansion of successful aph growing enterprises. Most of you appreciate the serious loss to the race of more than one real enterprise for lack of liquid assets immediately available to carry them over the crisis. As proposed the plan calls for the change of liquid assets by business in every line, the entire proceeds of which would be applied to the creation of such a fund to be operated by a competent directorate along conservative lines. The sale of 2000 shares at $100.00 a share would the first year give $100.00 for such purposes which if kept intact, for five years would give $500.00 available for such purposes—a very substantial foundation upon which to build a large structure of Negro business. The time has come for this organization to take necessary steps through a committee appointed for the purpose to put into operation the machinery for the successful establishment of this fund. 'With the large number of bank, insurance companies, fraternal organizations, and successful business men operating individually, it should be an easy matter to secure the needed capital without delay and with no strain or sacrifice upon anyone. Aside from its benefits to those who are non-members, it would really constitute a species of insurance to its own needs and sources. Its possibilities, I am sure, clear to all; it remains to put the plan into operation. I recommend this as a definite accomplishment for this session of the League. Now for the second feature of that program, Except for the jar and shake-up caused by the "war strikes" the railroad and the coal mining strike—the country as a whole is getting back to normal very rapidly. As the tide swings toward the flood, I wish to recommend that we undertake the regime of "Trade Boosting Campaigns," these campaigns to be just over in every community where there is a local branch of the National Negro Business League. Many of you will recall the report made at the meeting in Chattanooga in 1917, of the very successful results obtained in Atlanta from a Trade boosting Campaign conducted by the Local League in that city and reported at our meeting by Mr. K. Gibson. The object of the campaign was to increase the number of business among the Negroes in the community in a campaign of educating our own people in that city as to the service which they can secure from business men of their own race in the various lines represented. It is not a mere trade soliciting campaign, but a concerted effort to show to our people that they have among them business establishments that are prepared to give them the training they need and good or perhaps better fashion than they can find elsewhere. I understand that as a result of the campaign in Atlanta, some of the merchants realized as much as sixty per cell increase in their business and a great many people who had neither patronized colored merchants were not only induced to visit these establishments, but also to become their regular patrons. The general organizing a Trade Boosting Campaign into printed form and distributed early in the fall in time for its effect in developing the holiday trade, and again for its use in anticipation of the Spring trade. But just here let me remind you that it is not necessary to look only to our own people for patronage. Some of the most successful business enterprises among our people have been developed very largely upon the patronage of white people and in active competition with white business firms. Right in your own state, Mr. George P. Ingle of Charleston, South Carolina, was a successful business man in the state in a grocerial business whose largest patronage is from white people. Down in Alabama, in the town of Tuscaloosa, there is a Negro merchant, Mr. A. J. Wilt, whose success has been artificially ed in furnishing supplies to white planters. In Danville, Va., there is a Negro tasker who supplies the greater part of the trade in bread and pastry to the hotels and restaurants of that city. I still believe that if a Negro will supply as good goods at a reasonable price as any other new crop, he will throw two loaves of color will draw the line on him because of his color. A third feature of this program that should be of great help in promoting Negro business is the organization and conduct of short courses in business for Negro business men under the auspices of local leagues. The idea in brief is to call together the Negro business men of a certain section for a period of from two to five days, and there present to them some of the business methods and principals that will be most helpful in their particular lines. The leaders in this would be men who have been successful in some particular line of business, who would take the time to place before the men who are gathered together those elemental facts achieved. Colord business men who have succeeded could be particularly helpful to those who are just beginning, aided by the guidance there would be no difficulty whatever in securing the service of successful white business men in such an enterprise. In those places where there are boarding schools for our people, I am sure it would be an easy matter to secure the use of dormitories and class rooms for conducting this short course. Such schools as Fisk, Hampton, Howard, Atlantauskegge, Wilberforce, Talented, and much else would be indeed glad to be in every possible way to make an undertaking a success. The information and contact would both be helpful in every way to the develop most of our people. Fourth. I think that the time has now come for the National Negro Business League to employ a director or secretary or agent of some kind who shall devote all of his time to the organization and promotion of Local Business Leagues and to the work of establishing a suitable agency for putting our business men in touch with the most helpful sources of aid in the promotion and development of their businesses. We have willing new and developed enterprises whose chief handicap is not the lack of integrity, but the importance of many of the fundamental principles of trade. It would in many cases greatly help a propietor to have a visit from an agent of the League who would not himself tell him what to do, but put him in touch with one else who would help him in making his way upward. Those of you who have succeeded can in many cases count the change in your fortunes from the day when some one person gave you a contract to work on the right track toward success. Such a representative of the League would do a very large and real service along the very lines for which the League was established by Dr. Washington. And last but not least, I wish to recommend that the League establish a series of scholarships that would make it possible, to select each year one or two strong promising young men of our race and send them to one of the standard schools of commerce or perhaps journalism where they would fit themselves to enter a business career with a thorough knowledge of the principles of trade and commerce. The growth of business among our own people is becoming such that the need of this kind of training for our young people grows more and more apparent. Some of them have already discovered that there can be no further enlargement of business in certain lines at least until the next potent young men and women, trained in this way through to take the business to larger and higher development. Ignorance is at the present time a greater handicap to successful business among Negroes than dishonesty and there is a definite limit to expansion beyond which it cannot go until we have a body of trained assistants to carry it forward. In all of this I mean to 'embasize this fact: that scientific methods in business must supplant the present hit-or-miss method. Very frequently men of our race see some other man succeed in a given line of business and decide to enter upon the same line with little or no knowledge of the business, but at the same time expecting to succeed largely because the other man has succeeded. With the growing competition in business throughout the country, it is becoming almost impossible for a man to make any success whatever without a through knowledge of the line he undertakes to develop. Any man who goes into business today with out some knowledge of the buying power of his clients, by the distribution of the population, of the aster of his patron, is particularly fare-doomed to failure. Perfidite and exact information, many things is required to those who start business today and hope to develop it to success. The National Negro Business League was established for this very purpose; to bring to those who are in business and to those who are hoping to enter business the benefit of the knowledge and experience of those who have already succeeded. For those who are interested in the possibilities of Negro business, there is perhaps no finer illustration to be found anywhere in our country than right here in this section which is the host of the national. Greene's book, *The Negro Enterprise*, here we have in 5 counties centering around Norfolk a spindled illustration of Negro enterprise as is to be found anywhere. Practically every line of business is represented here, from the most one-clerk grocery store to spatial and well organized banks and insurance companies. Negroes like this are the foundation of business, and there is no problem to more prominent group of ST. LOUIS, MO., FRIDAY, AUG., 25, 1922 Hot Dog!

A-3653—10-inch, 75c Columbia Records Columbia Graphophone Co., New York I'll pay my bills so you can pay yours colored people to be found anywhere else in our country. But even here the possibilities of development in business have yet to be taken full advantage of. In this section there are about 150,000 Negroes who, at a conservative estimate spend annually over $15,000,000 for food and clothing, $10,000,000 for clothing that for every dollar the Negro earns he spends 36 cents for clothing 32 for food, 12 cents for shelter including insurance, 17 cents for luxuries, amusements education and benevolence, and save one cent. Applying these figures to the Norfolk district, we find that the Negroes in this section spend about $10,000,000 on two pairs of shoes a year for each individual at an average cost of a little more than $5,00 per pair. The clothing they wear is costing annually more than two million dollars. At grocery stores, butcher shops and other places where food stuffs are purchased they are spending annually five million dollars. Roughly speaking, then we have in the Norfolk district at least eight million dollars spent by Negroes alone which constitute a legitimate field for Negro business. It is not to be expected that Negro business men will get all of this patronage, but it is within the bounds of reason to suggest that a full development of Negro business would bring Negro business men at least one-fourth of this business annually. And to one million dollars annually from that amount we would have three million dollars annually as the basis for the promotion of Negro business enterprises in and around Norfolk. Although I do not have the figures, I am satisfied that investigation would show that the aggregate of Negro business in this district is still a long way from this total. It is such possibilities as these that constitute the basis for the work of the National Negro Business League and more and more I am convinced that there is a real need and a real demand for such an organization as we have in the Business League. The Negro League needs the inspiration and information which this organization with its well organized and affiliated bodies can give. It also needs the application of effort which the National League represents if we are to achieve the economic upbringing which is essential to the continued and permanent development of the Negro League. And we need at the same time the combined efforts of this organization with all of our other organizations in their efforts to advance the race, cooperating at the same time with that large and increasing group of white people both North and South who are working uselessly to see that every group of every race, what ever its creed or color, have that unhampered opportunity for development which is assured to everyone of its citizens by-that nation which declares itself "conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition, that all men are created equal." CLAIM THAT JIM-CROW STREET CARS ARE CAUSE OF COMPANY'S DEFICIT Danville, Va., Traction And Power Co. May Have To Quit Business Because Of Color Rule Associated Negro Press. DANVILLE, Va., Aug. 16. Officials of the Danville Traction and Power Company are worried as to just how to conduct the local street car system in a way to make the business profitable. Some are inclined to blame the shortage in revenues on the presence of such a large number of flivver owners here' but a majority of them are of the opinion that the real cause of the falling off of the revenues is that white and colored, people are not allowed to use the same doors of the street cars for entrance and exit. The company announced its intention to put on one man cars to cut down the number of flivver owners being bitterly opposed by various citizens' clubs and organizations, and it is thought the railways company will abandon this idea. A prominent official of the company is alleged to have stated that he thought the only way out of this perplexing dilemma is to construct street cars with separate entrances and exits. "You just can't mix these white and colored people down south especially in public circumstances," he said.

Williams Of "Murder Farm" Attends Family Reunion Man Serving Life Term In Georgia Man Serving Life Term in Georgia For Murder Of Several Negroes. Gets "Few Minutes" At Home Branton News Gets 'Few Minutes' AI Home Preston News Service ATLANTA, Ga. Aug. 23 - Apparently one of the most flagrant violations of not only prison rules but just plain pure common sense was the act of Superintendent Dunn of the prison farm. Last week when he allowed him to S. Williams to go to his home in Jasper Country to visit his family and attend a big family reunion. When word reached the state prison commission about Williams being permitted to visit his family, Dunnaway was forthwith summoned to appear before the commission. Dunaway, it is said, figuring that the best way to save"himself was to plead ignorance of the rules and to take advantage of his newness on the job to the commission as an excuse for his dereliction of duty and violation of prison rules. He told the commission that John's S. Williams, who is serving life term at the prison for the murder of several Negroes on his Jasper county farm, had been recently permitted to visit his home, but declared that the prisoner remained only a short time and did not get out of the sight of the custodian during the entire time he was in his home. In his effort to make his excuse more plausible to the commission Dunaway stated that recently it became neces sary for him to make a trip to Jasper county to exchange some hogs and bolt some seed wheat and burr clover seed for the prison farm and manshac as Williams was so well acquainted with the roads in Jasper county, that he further claimed that Williams' home was on the route and that they stopped there for only a few minutes during which time Williams talked with his wife and daughter. A member of the commission stated that they had reports that Williams had been allowed to go home and attend a big family reunion and barbecue. Dunaway denied this vigorously and declared that the only time Williams had been out of the prison was the trip with him in to Jasper county a few days ago for hogs and seeds. Dunaway also rounded Dunaway for his violation of the prison rules and told him that no prisoner was to be permitted to leave the prison without the knowledge and consent of the commission. Dunaway, it is said, frankly admitted to the commission that he did not know it. was against the rules for a prisoner to be taken away from the farm without the consent of the commission. "I have only been super-incident of the prison a short time and have not yet become familiar with all the rules." He promised the commission that he would abide by the rules in the future.

Denomination In Liberia and Sierra Leon Consults With Agriculture Department At Washington WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 16.—Bishop W. S. Sampson Brooks was in the city last week consulting with officials in the Department of Agriculture concerning the kind of cattle to take back to Africa with him. The bishop had thought of purchasing a New Jersey hedge of Holstein, one of the best breeds in the world, but he was advised that cattle from the southern part of United States or from South America would probably be able to stand the African climate better than those raised in northern United States. Eventually, however, a herd of fine cattle will accompany the bishop on his return to Africa next year. Bishop Brooks is well-known all over the country and is now engaged in a $50,000,000 raising funds for the educational work of his church in West Africa. His school now nearly completed is the largest stone building in that part of the continent. The bishop is also interested in having the United States keep its promise to Liberia in granting the 35,000,000 loan. Besides the matter of schools and of improvements in the Customs Service the bishop is anxious to have the government proceed with its policy of constructing roads from the seaboard to the interior with the development of the coast. At present the rivers which are navigable for only a short distance, say twenty-five or thirty miles from the ocean, are the only means by which produce may be brought to tidewater. Produce which is grown back of the seaboard district either gives over the French or English border or the grower is compelled to let it lie on the ground and not because of the damage it causes in cities. In either case it is lost to the Liberian Customs as the Interland Customs Service is not at all effective. The trails,which at present are just wide enough for pedestrians to pass single file—are poor substitutes for roads. Then too, it is quite impossible to transport the products of a country, the size of Ohio on the heads of natives. It is therefore of the utmost importance that wagon roads over which wagons, trucks, and other auto pass should be built. U. S. WAR DEPARTMENT COMMISSIONS MANY HOWARD U. STUDENTS U. S. WAR DEPARTMENT COMMISSIONS MANY HOWARD U. STUDENTS Ursison News Service. WASHINGTON: D. C. Aug. 16—in addition to the seventh Harvard University, the Harvard commissioned and mounted documents. In the Reserve Army of the United States, six other students were awarded commissions as second lieutenants at the close of the R. O. T. C., Infantry Camp, U. S. A., at Camp Meade on July 24th by Brigadier General Martin. Those receiving commissions were: Walter A. Adams, Des Moines; Iowa; Robert L. Pollard, Houston; Texas; Robert J. Madison, Mobile, Ala.; Samuel R. Cheevers, Albany, Ga.; Julian J. Evans, Washington, D. C.; and Arthur W. Ferguson, Richmond, Va. Thirty-eight Howard, students attended the summer Reserve Training Camp at Albany; this training qualified a number of the men made high ratings at the shooting range. Among them were: Albert J. Holmes, of Baltimore, who was the only cadet to qualify as an expert rifleman, receiving a prize of $12.50, having scored 283 out of a possible 350 points; Arthur T. Ferguson, of Richmond, Va., the only cadet to purify as sharpshooter, scored 287 points. The cadets who qualified as marksmen were: Walter Adams, Linnar C. Bryant, Purvis J. Chesson, Alonzo L. Mason, Julian J. Evans, Clement H. Dwin D. Johnson, Robert J. Madison, Grant M. Robinson, Horace C. Scott, William Spiller, Edward U. Taylor, Theodore O. Walker, and James M. Young. Indications are that commissions will be awarded to fifty-five Howard University men next June, including those who attended camp this summer and those who will complete the course in the Howard University R O.

In 1830, the Department of Commerce announced recently. The statement showed that figures included the states of Delaware, Maryland, District of Columbia, and West Virginia besides the states considered strictly southern. The Negro farm population of the south in 1829 constituted 56.6 per cent of the total southern Negro population. The Negro farm population is said to be in the southern two states, South Carolina and Mississippi, but the largest Negro population for any state was shown for Georgia which has 767,201.

The Bantu of West Africa makes elaborate preparations for a real soak by digging a hole in the ground, in which he puts seven herbs a quantity of peppers, cardamom seeds and bushes, then he pours in a lot of boiling hot water. After he gets in a light frame covered with clay is put over the hole to keep in the steam. After hours of steaming the bather emerges and is washed off with clean water, then kneaded by a professional for one hour, when he dons his scanty clothing and goes his way "shivering with cleanness." The Olive Tree. The olive tree is supposed to have been originally a native of Greece, but it is now naturalized in the south of France, Italy and Spain, where it has been extensively cultivated from time immemorial for the oil expressed from the fruit. The tree attains an almost incredible age. Near Fernl. in the vale of Marmora, is a plantation about two miles in extent of very old trees, supposed to be the same trees mentioned by Pilay as growing there in the first century of the Christian era. What Would You Do? My slaster's eldest child is a girl. When she was six years old, twins were born. Soon after this event the family came home for a visit. One day when there was company and we were all seated at the dinner table, Mary's childish voice rang out loud and clear: "Aunt Josephine, what would you do if you had twins?" An Innerwick (Scotland) farm servant sold six ducks to a buyer living three miles away whither the birds were conveyed in a hamper. Next day, however, the six ducks turned up at Innerwick again, having traversed the three intervening miles of rough and hilly countryside. How did they find their way all that distance afoot? Early Waterway Builder Early Waterway Builder. Francis Egerton Bridgewater (1736-1808) was called the "Father of Inland Navigation in Great Britain." He completed a navigable canal connecting the cities of Liverpool and Manchester, and promoted the Grand Trunk canal navigation. Watch Out, Carlsbad! Carlsbad, the famous health resort, is built on a crust, underdrawn which is a subtagranean lake of boiling water, and all the hot sulphur springs have to be sensibly watched and the pressure kept down lest the town be destroyed. SAME by the truth. Much less courage is needed to bluster out a defence before our enemies than is needed to simply state the truth as we see it, and quietly stand by it. After all, quiet steadfastness can always be trusted to carry conviction. Sentiment Analyzed. By the way, why is it that the poor always eat crusts? What do they do with the soft part of the loaf? We never heard of a poor man, not in literature, we mean, who didn't make his meal quietly on the crust of his bread.—From the Kansas City Star. "Ard." "Ard" is a Saxon termination of personal names, denoting natural tendency, as Goddard, "good-tempered"; Giffard, "liberal"; drupkard, "sottish"; sluggard, "lazy," and many others. Badly Shaken. Hubby (reading paper)—"Just think, an earthquake has destroyed the entire town of Piszikaszisky in Poland." Wife—"Was it spelled the same way before the earthquake?"—Houston Post. Bits of Information The phrase, "a feather in his cap," originated in an old custom in Hungary, which forbade any one to wear a feather in his cap unless he had killed a Turk. Land Fish in India. In India certain species of fish can live out of water a day or two, and on a hot summer's day they may be seen making their way rather clumsily across the fields. On the Shiftless Shift.

In Mexico no sensible girl would consent to be married on a Tuesday, as that is believed to be the unluckiest day of the week for weddings. Definition of Age Growing old is merely a process of becoming too sophisticated, to enjoy anything.—From the Buffalo Sun ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, AUG. 18, 1922. Bad Risk in Windows. Nearly every business contributes bits of specialized knowledge to the common fund. It will strike many persons as a curious piece of information that plate-glass insurance companies class windows with black lettering on them as "extra hazardous risks. The explanation given is that a black surface absorbs the sun's rays. By this means, it is stated, an unequal expansion is produced throughout the plate; and under the influence of a sudden gust of cold or any other quick change of temperature a strain is developed which may break the glass. "Burke's Peerage." "Burke's Peerage" is the name, usually applied to a publication entitled "Genealogical and Heraldic Diction of the Peerage and Baronetage of the United Kingdom."

Accidentaltr When labor-saving machinery was first introduced, most people opposed it, on the ground that it would throw many out of jobs. Many an old-time sewing machine salesman still carries buckshot in his legs, fired there by "practical" gents who objected to the devilish device that took work from seamstresses. Today we realize that labor-saving devices merely shift workers into new industries—and raise the standard of living. You see this illustrated in the American telephone system that does the work of 6,000,000 messenger boys. Bob-White Eats Beetles. The bob-white eats the adults or beetles of the corn rootworm which lay the eggs that later become larvae or worms and infest the corn. As many as 12 of the beetles, according to the bureau of entomology of the United States Department of Agriculture, have been found in the stomach of one bob-white. The red-headed woodpecker, nighthawk, cardinal kingbird and phoebe also eat the beetles and reduce the damage done by the southern corn rootworm. Chief End of Brains. A well-known politician tells this one on himself. A barber while trimming his locks, remarked: "You have a large head, sir (snip, snip). It's a fine thing to have a large head, for a large head means a large brain, and a large brain is the most useful thing a man can have, for it nourishes the roots of the hair."—Boston Transcript.

Prophecy, after all, is merely the logical continuance of the known into the unknown; and, on the data we have, it should be quite easy to prophecy for at least fifty years ahead. —James Stephens. Whence the Papal "Bull." The popes of Rome used to seal their decrees in lead instead of wax, which galned for them the name of papal bulls, from bulls, lead.

Lewis head of the Western "Back-To-Africa" movement issued a staggerment here last Friday detailing reasons why his party did not sail on Tuesday as scheduled. Rev. Lewis said, "The railroad strike has prevented the departure of the Good Motorship Angel from Los Angeles to Liberia with 100 members of the race who have booked passage to Africa. The date of sailing has, therefore, been postponed pending the arrival birth of fifty three of our members from the east and south, who have booked passage. The Angel, termed the flagship of the Liberian Transportation Steamship company and the Church of God line, is said to be the only vessel flying the Liberian flag. The man who results is the man who is descent and who makes him self felt as a force for decency, clean lines and civic righteousness. First he must be Bonset. In the next phase he must have courage; the third man counts but little in the rough business of trying to do the world's work. In addition, he must have common sense. If he does not have it, no matter what other qualities he may have, he will find himself of the mercy of those who, without possessing the desire to do right, know only the well how to make the wrong effective.

Wills has everything to lose, while Jackson has everything to gain. If Wills wins, then the last barrier, the last film's, will be Utah man and his crafty manager, his coach, and his triumph to the winds Jackson's formidably record, which was climaxed several months ago, by his decisive defeat over the now ageing Sam Langford of Boston fames, has made him an important figure in heavy- weight circles. And the outcome of the fight will determine whether he is in the big-time circuit to stay or not. If Jackson, buy any stretch of the imagination. should bowl Wills over before the end of the fifteenth round. It would mean the "final curtain" for the Brown Panther of New Orleans and New York. **Odins in Favor of Wills** Odins will appear to be shaded in favor of a Wills' victory. Even those ring critics who have disagreed with Paddy Mullins in sanctioning such a bout, believe that Wills will be returned a winner. For Wills has been through the mill he's had the experience of going up against big men before. He knows the psychology of the ring; the things that to make a real champion. He knows when and how to take advantage of his moment. In addition to this, Wills is a naturally aggressive fighter, the kind that fights back the hardest when they are stung the most. His natural hitting powers, coupled with his other abilities, optimize his fight, and sports are already offering 1 to 7 odds with new takers. Jackson Confident. On the other hand, "Tutt". Jackson is confident that he will be the new Newgro heavyweight champion, the 'e' Hilldale Slabman Pitches No-Hit Game Against Rube Foster's American Giants CHICAGO IL.

Ministers Convert Verbal Debate Into Fistic Combat Preston News Service LITTLE ROCK, Ark. Aug. 23--Very often pleasant discussions turn out for the mutual-benefit of the participants and hearers in knowledge gained, but occasionally they have the reverse effect. A. Atkinson of the Young Minister's Alliance here last Tuesday might be a dispute arose over ecclesiastical ethics, beginning as a mere objection question, and finding its climax in an intensely personal exchange of opinions as well as physical efforts. The argument, it is said, arose over the ethics, and propriety of the recent action of the organization in expelling one of its members. According to the police, Revs. L. Mal lory and J. L. Mack got the worst of the argument. Both sustained several cuts about their faces and arms, Rev Mack had to be removed to the Bush Memorial hospital where 23 stitches were taken to close the wounds. Rev. M. Abe Guildon, who is al- leged to have inflicted the wounds upon the two ministers, is said to have fled to parts unknown. The police are searching for him.
