Taken On The Measure.

DYER BILLS MUCH ALIVE
Expression Gained By Number Of People That Anti-
Mob Legislation Is Dead,
Is Far From Being True.
That the colored people of the U.S.
States, and particularly colored
ers, may know exactly what ac-
tion was taken on the Dyer Anti-Lynch
Bill by the United States Senate
are it adjourned, on September 22,
that they may also realize the
current status of the bill, the National
ociation for the Advancement of
aired People made public a state-
tion by James Weldon Johnson, who
wired for the Association at Washing
through the long light for the bill
the statement is given in the
imprisoned member of people
that the Bill is dead for
time. That is far from being true.
Mr. Johnson's statement shows. It
in August 21 I went to Washington to do whatever was possible the action on the Dyer Anti-Attack Bill. I was assured by Nen McCormick and also by Senator McKinnie-Watson of Indiana and Lodge of the Senate Steering Committee I meet within a day or two and if the Anti-Lynching Bill would be based on the program of measures to taken up for consideration before press adjourned.
On August 30, the Steering Committee, and placed the Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill on the program.
On September 14 I wont again to mention to urge us consideration the Bill and remained there until the Court is adjourned. Republican areas in the state repeatedly assessed their intention and may decide to bring the matter to consideration the adjournment of Congress. None of them felt that the Bill could be finally disposed of within time, they all expected that the electorate would not only demand the first time possible for discussion of the measure but that they would not misstering tactics to impede is process. It was finally decided that the effort to bring up the Bill for consideration would be made on Thursday, September 21. Accordingly it was arranged that Senator Sherridge would at the proper moment be recognized for purge the Senate. What two colleagues armed President pro tempore of the Senate. Senator Cummins, in accordance with the rule announced that the finished business became the order, that mount. Senator Underwood that moment. Senator Underwood, democratic leader, was discussing the commission on Mixed Cases of American Citizens Against Germany. Senator Curtis arose and asked for unanimous consent that the unfinished business be temporarily laid aside naturally, there was no objection, as a request made by Senator Curtis enabled the Democratic leader to convene his speech. Senator Curtis also had a strategy for the task of the Anti-Lynch Bill.
As soon as Senator Underwood conduced, Senator Shortridge arose and cursed the recognition of the Chair, immediately the Democrats were alive, the situation. I do not think they dictated the move, but as soon Senator Shortridge arose by it once that message came to take the Senate bill. Before Senator Shortridge proceeded, the yielded, following the rule of curiosity in the Senate to Sen. McNary allow him to ask the Chair to lay before the Senate House amendments a certain joint resolution, and again yielded, to Senator Warren to allow him to report. From the Committee, on appropriations, a joint resolution, immediately raised the point of order that the resolution reported by Senator Warren was desirable. This point order gave rise to a long and complicated parliamentary w rangle, which ended in President pro tempore Cummins ruling that Senator Harrison took the floor. Senator Harrison took the floor, preceded by the Senate alliance was on.
In the midst of the parliamentary wrangle in which Senator Shortridge out the floor. Senator Harrison suggested the absence of a quorum. The President-pro tempore instructed the Secretary to call the roll, and the following answered to their names. Ashhurst, Borah, Brandegee, Cressard \Buradim, Calder Cameron, Cappel Dial, DuPont, DuPont, Erist, Fletcher Pratt, Gooding Harrell, Harrison, Helfin, Hirchock Jones, Wash, Keyes La, Follette, Leenroot, Lodge, McCorwin, McCumber, McKellar, McLean McNary, Moses, Nelson, Nicholson Norcock, Odile, Owen Pepper Phillips Harrison, Reed, Pa., Robinning, Sheppard, Shields, shortridge, Simons, Sawot, Stanfield, Sterling Sutherland, Swanson, Townsend

MO. REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION
Party Has Done Much To Improve Conditions In The State. People Are Proud Of What Has Been Accomplished.
Only A Few, If Any Republican Followers Will Vote For Jim Reed.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. Oct. 1. — The Republican administration, in Missouri has accomplished so many things of importance to the general welfare of our citizens during the short period that Governor Hyde and his assistants have been on the job that even a brief digest of its accomplishments could not be given in one article. The present state of affairs has allowed us to send taxation, lightened the financial burdens of the state, pensioned the blind, paid thousands of bonuses to war veterans, inaugurated an admirable system of management at the penitentiary and elemen-sary lestations, raised our public schools to a level of any in the country, helped the farmer in many ways, provided for a superb system of good roads, and done more of the work that any three Democratic administrations. These are a few of the reasons why talk of a "change has fallen so flat the past few months. "We will try and, keep such men as our present Missouri officials who have made such a fine record in office and the state can keep the 'change,' a farmer from Cooper county was heard to remark recently while in the capital city.
Republicans should not judge in the silly talk that Reed will be hard to beat in November, as just a few moments thought will convince any reasonable person that Reed will be a much easier task for any to detail. In the general election than Long would have been. Thousands of Democrats, not only a majority of Republicans will be follow the lead of your best judgment and heed the promptings of your conscience and we'll all be "Rid of Reed", once and for all, in a short time.

"If lynching continues in Mississippi, it is sure to begin in 'Missouri' he said.
This country cannot stand, or continue, half jim crow and half not. It must be either killed where it is or it will spread to other parts.
The local branch is in a drive for 1000 new members during the next thievery days.

TRIP TO HOLY LAND
TOLD FROM EXPERIENCE
MRS. LELIA WALKER WILSON
Helress Daughter of The late Madam C. J. Walker.
"My Trip to the Holy Land" is an interesting subject which Mrs. Lelia Walker Wilson, daughter of the late Mme. C. J. Walker is delivering during a lecture four she is making in this country since her return from an extensive trip to Europe.
This young woman during her talks shows manual ability for handling her subject. Those who are interested in history and Bible students find much delight in what she has to say. In her travels Mrs. Wilson visited among other places, Rome, Cairo, Alexandria, Venice, Jerusalem, Bethany, Mt. Vesuvius, Pompei, Monte Carlo, Jericho and the Red Sea. She gives a description of each place visited in the Holy land giving chapters and verses in the Bible which refer to them. She would think for a patient that she is an heiress and the head of so large an industry as the Mine, C. J. Walker Manufacturing Co., as she never mentions her business. Yet one can't be impressed with the culture and remembrance which marks her every act. Her manners and gentleness with which she meets the public and all classes, tells the story of her love for her race.
The daughter has taken up the work where her mother left off. The Madame C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company stands not only as a monument to personal integrity, business acumen and perseverance, but also as a light on a hill to struggling race enterprises, forever offering its rare of hope and encouragement and helping women in material ways its benefits are insatiable. Thousands of women all over the country earn a livelihood in their homes through culture and above all its greatest good and the one most easily appreciated, the Madame Walker system of beauty is its enhancement of the natural beauty of Negro women.
KU KLUX KLAN MAKES PUBLIC APPEARANCE
KU KLUX KLAN MAKES PUBLIC APPEARANCE
The first public appearance of the Ku Klux Klan in St. Louis was when the member of the Invisible Kingdom with their hooded heads and long white robes swooped down upon a bier at 4209 Washington, Blvd. Sept. 30th. It is said that the dead Klansman was a resident of Texas. But whether those who made up the mystery party, were from Texas no one seems to know. It is said that the dead Klansman was also a member of the Masonic order. But those who are well versed in the mystery of Masonry doubt the truth of the statement. An observer, said that not a Jew Negro or Catholic was at the funeral no mourners were reported as being present as the spirit of the Kluxes dominated.

K.OF P. HEAD SUSPENDS MO. GRAND LODGE
The Call, Cleveland, Ohio.
To the office of the Cleveland Call this week comes preclamation No. 19 from S. W. Green, Supreme Chancellor of Knights of Pythias, suspending the membership of the order throughout the State of Missouri and jurisdiction. In the same mail comes a letter of exclamation from the Grand Chancellor of Missouri setting forth reasons of Missouri Grand lodges for their failure to abide by supreme effect. The whole matter seems to center around a tax for the State of Missouri Grand Chancellor Lydia styles as a tax for investment and profit and not for revenue. For the benefit of those of the Pythian family who should be interested, we berewish carry excerpts from both proclamation of the Supreme Chancellor and letter from Grand Chancellor A. W. Loyd. After dealing at length with the case of tax in question Supreme Chancellor Green says, "The Supreme Chancellor of Pythias Jurisdiction of Missouri, has failed according to law to pay its just taxes due, has challenged the authority of the Supreme Lodge, aforesaid and because the acts of the Supreme Lodge was contrary to the will of the Grand Chancellor of the Jurisdiction of Missouri, and the representatives of such Grand Lodge, refused to pay over to the Supreme Lodge funds collected by authority of such State Jurisdiction of Missouri, to the ministates and laws of the civil Order of Knights of Pythias.
It becomes a question of whether the Supreme Lodge or Grand Lodge shall rule, and which shall obey, and it is my duty and authority to enforce the mandates of the Supreme Lodge. The Supreme Lodge under the law is the source of all authority; and by Continued On Page Six
NEW POLITICAL PARTY IN STATE PENNSYLVANIA
Ten Thousand Names Signed To Petition Creating A New Organization. Repudiates Both Old Parties. Backed By Committee Of Forty-Eight.
PHILADELHIA, Pa., Oct. 4, — "Reactionary Pennsylvania, which since the days of Matthew Quayy has fruitlessly struggled against the domination of machine politics, has thrown off its shackles and nominated a full Senatorial and State ticket to the Senate," said J. H. Hopkins, Executive Chairman of the Committee of 48, today.
"Petitions signed by over 10,000 voters have been filed at Harrisburg, and the new party has been definitely established.
"The ticket is headed by Congressman-at-large William J. Burke, who recently polled over 300,000 votes in the primary election. He has been nominated for U.S. Senator 'full term.' Mr. Earl W. Thompson has also been nominated for the U.S. Senate for the unexpired term. Mr. George L. Lloyd has been nominated for Lieut. Governor, and 'Mr. Charles J. Dunbar for Secretary of Internal Affairs.
"The entire ticket has the hearty endorsement and support of the Rush road Briptherhoods, the farming element, the labor organization, andgress andgres throughout the State. Mr. Burke opened the campaign on September 25th at Pittsburg."
The Progressive Party stands squarely for the national platform of the Committee of 48. and we will throw a staff of speakers into the state who will not hesitate to bare the point of criticisms both formally and locally which have led to the Formation of the new party.
"The Progressive Party of Pennsylvania is one of the units in the new national party organized by the Committee of 48, and Pennsylvania has now taken its place inside Idaho, South Dakota, Nebraska, North Dakota, and all those states in which the new party tickets will contest the elections with the 're-actionary, Democratic and Republican nominees."
"It is a significant fact that the political revolution which started in the West has, electrified Pennsylvania, Were it not for the lawsuits placed against unpleasant book titles, unpleasant and Democratic Parties for the distinct purpose of interfering with the nomination of new party tickets, many other states would join the procession. Notwithstanding this handicap, however, several of the states are unable to assimilate the new party tickets, and announcements in respect to their activities may be expected later on."

As If They Were Hardened
Criminals.
Let Out Because the Boys Found In Her A "Moral Background," Or One Who Was Kind To Them.
A. D. Heckel Who "Lords" Over Cottage No. 6, More Like Slave Driver Than A Parent.
Six more boys have run away from the Bellfountain Farms recently as a result of alleged ill treatment at the hands of one of the caretakers in charge of the Negro boy's cottage. According to the statement made by the boys, one A. D. Heck who is in charge of cottage No. 6 has treated them cruelly and worse in some instances than if they were brutes and as one boy said, "He is kind of the cows and pets them, but we boys be curse, knocks down, abuses and threatens us."
When asked why they didn't tell the general Superintendent, Secret about the conduct of the boy toward the boy said, "If would only make it that much harder for the boy who told and the boys said they found no relief by appealing to Mr. Secet, because it was the man at the cottage whom they had to live under afterward for some two or three years.
Visitors who recently visited the farm said that they had never seen a more coward group of boys in any penal institution than those infortunate Negro boys at Bellfortown. They act like they are treated worse than hard criminals, and it seems that it is the purpose of one A. D. Heckel to crush hope out of the boy and make him feel at all times that "no one cares for" him.
**Seed Work.** Dismissed.
Beckel said that Mr. Soest said the boys felt that they had a "moral background" in the person of Mrs. Frank D. George, who Mrs. a Sunday School teacher for the boys, he ordered her service discontinued. No charges were made against Mrs. George to Mr. Hamilton who is Superintendent over the Colored S. S. workers. All that Mr. Soest would say is that Mrs. George brought a, copy of the St. Louis Agrus and gave it to some of the members of her class. Heckel said that during a lesson one Sunday when Mrs. George drew a parable, some of the boys boxed at him. He told that the boys like Mrs. George "too much" because they thought that she was their friend.
Mrs. George says 'she is innocent of my wrong doing in connection with her work among the boys. She admitt that she gave them not one, but several copies of the Argus, and she tried to be friendly to the boys whom she taught, with the hope that by so doing she would be able to help the man. Mrs. George is a well known social worker, she going to the House of Detention every Friday for years spending several hours with the unfortunate girls, where she is well thought of because of her interest in the unfit of the fallen.
A Sinister Move Seen.
Mr. Hamilton and his other teachers declare that they know Mrs. George has done no wrong in connection with her service toward the boys. They say they have also been guilty of taking the Argus and other good literature to the boys. All of which was done to help inspire and encourage those boys with whom they came in contact.
Since the order denying Mrs. George to serve, it is common belief that it is the man who ment of the farm to stop the colored social workers from serving at the Bellefontaine farm because they may see "too much" —
"The Wicked Fleeth."
The old saying, "the wicked fleeth when no man pursueth" is regarded by many as a "fitting condition of Bickey's mind. So he blinks every time he sees the boys under him, is reminding him of his meanness and unfitness to be their "boos."
More Like A Slave Driver.
It has been pointed out that Heckel, who is an ex-policeman possesses none in "notherly" qualities essential to "father" law, under his care, but on the other hand, his conduct is said to be typical of the Slave Driver who delights in his job as a Negro boss.

No more pads or pins to catch and rip the clothing as it ships through the board.
The Jiffy Cover is made of strong linen with an interlining of high-grade felt. It can be used on either side, thus giving double wear.
This Jiffy Cover with its soft padding replaces the make-shift pads of blankets and sheets which women are now obliged to use. This cover can be washed as easily as a towel. There are six strong yeelocks on both sides that are tightly and sugely to the board. There are no special means necessary. On and off in a jiffy.
You cannot get these covers in the stores; get them dripping from the agent in your city who will call at your house any day.

SELF RELIANCE
By Theo. Atkins
Self-reliance the gift, of kings, queens and princesses.
The stay of peace and war's defenses.
But no like the squirrel when the huntsman shakes a tree.
From his position moves that he might see.
Touse up to the huntsman to shake a hair at will.
But life of the squirrel rest in keeping still;
No matter how the chains do rattle and the bells all ring.
Your position keep, and to your balance cling.
Maintain your balance and keep your stand.
Though foes may trouble and friends disband;
Care not in others affairs to watch and peep.
Thus, self-reliance will thy poise in safety keep.
ANNOUNCEMENT
All rumours concerning the dissolution of Charles Creath's Jazz-O-Manics are hereby stated to be untrue. Charles has just returned from Chicago where he has obtained some of the best musicians that could be acquired in the country—all artists in their line. He will now offer something newer and more novel in the latest dance hits as featured by some of the best known dance orchestras in the country, such as Paul Whitman and his orchestra, Isom Jones Orchestra and other exclusive jazz bands.
Mr. Creath will offer something in music and accompanion to the dance public unprecedented in the history or of London for the incoming dance "All for the best—St. Louis to the Front."
Meet me there Nov. 21th. — Ady.

Packed-House Witnessed.
Mrs. Shelton's Gypsy Play
At Poro Last Friday
Friends and admirers of Mrs. Shelton, packed Poro Auditorium for the second time, to see our gypse play "Idea." As early as 7-8 oclock the great throng began to fill the corridor at Poro, by 8:15 the Auditorium was filled. Promptly at 8:20 Mrs. Shelton's smiling face appeared. In presenting the play, Mrs. Shelton told the origin of "Good"—how some eight years ago it was written in response to a call from Antoch Baptist, Church. Since then the play has been revived with a wonderful plot and moral.
Every body, wonders where Mrs. Shelton finds her 'cast, so well suited are they to every inch of her play. Little Georgia Williams as Gena was more charming than ever. The stolen children and Snappy deserve much praise. Mrs. Wilson as Mrs. Roscland, seemed to play her part with more earnestness than before. Miss Wheeler, as Francho was a splendid character. Mr. Tayler as Morris, was great. George Shelton as gypsie John, was good as usual, and pretty Miss Gladys Williams, sang like a忍冬-gale, in her gypsie song, Mr. J. Stewart took him by storm by storm with his powerful voice. But Henry Wallace, as detective, gypsie Vysshon, Vysshon, the Silly Maid, Gloria Shelton as Charming 'Tassett', our own wonderful Earnest Hutchinson as Neah, fascinated and thrilled the audience to their hearts content. Between the acts Mrs. Shelton infenced The Peerless Boys and Melrose Club Girls who served as ushers.
The play of the play ever changing, yet so sincere, so bright and so beautiful, holds you in its uncertain grasp until 'Gema is brought home in the last act. The play could be given in any large theatre with credit, and if properly handled will itself bring a fortune to the writer.
Had Mrs. Shelton any doubt about the real value of her work, she would have been convinced - Friday - night, that the people of St. Louis not only appreciate it but mean to help put it on the market.
Many out of town people were present and Churches, Clubs and Friends took the lead in helping to sell tickets. By A Celtic.
I wish to express my appreciations and thanks to the friends, Churches, Clubs, Societies, and my faithful cast of Characters who so willingly gave their time, and those who sold tickets, also the excellent service - given by Poro Attendants and all who helped to make last Friday such a glowing success, and the many in the city and out of the city who could not attend but are sending donations. The work when put on the market will be puffy. A by a St. Louis, St. Louis, St. Louis, St. Louis, and staged in St. Louis for twenty years, by the talent of St. Louis. The work will also have pictures of many who first took part in these plays. I hope in the meantime to continue to use these plays for the benefit of public institutions. Again I thank you.

Dear Sir:
I worked in the wash-room of a steam laundry, my feet were wet at all times and, contracted a cough that swelled my chest and lungs. I lost weight and strength rapidly and coughed all the time. I grew very weak from night sweats.
My mother bought a bottle of Doyle's Tonic. After using it I felt much better and am gaining in weight. I feel that I will soon be able to work again.
Respectfully yours.

My Dear Mr. Doyle:
May 3, 1922 was the day the doctor called and said I was down with pneumonia and my case was serious because of a weak heart. This doctor and another doctor refused me any stimulant to keep up my strength on account of my heart condition.
I'd read all of this, needed stimulant and better than any stimulant, a friend gave me your tonic. The tonic preserved my strength up to the day of the crisis. After the crisis I kept on taking bottle after bottle of tonic un-still returned to my old job at Seattle's Steel Works July 24, 1922.

"WITHOUT BENEFIT OF CLERGY"
Kipling knows the song of India.
Leah Baird in "When the Devil Drives" will be presented at the destination Theatre on Sunday and Monday. It shows the cross-section of the heart of two women. One is a sophisticated woman of the world—a woman with a past. The other is a pure, innocent girl, the product of an atmosphere of intellect, culture and refinement. Yet, when anger, disappointment, hurt and pain are into the black depths of a self-made hell, the Devil drives them to vengeance. Then the girl of refinement is no finer than the other woman. After all, women good and bad are "sisters under the skin."
Constance Talmadge will be seen in "Lessions in Love" on Wednesday and Thursday. The star gives some very interesting lessons to children and a young Westerner in her latest First National starring vehicle, which is very appropriately entitled "Lessions in Love."

He is groomed for Congress, but retires to agree with a certain corrupt demagogue and learning he believes the girl he has urged him to further her brother's ends, disappears from town. later he is brought back, wins the election and weds the girl who was always true to herself and to him.
"Hurricane Gail," featuring Dorothy Phillips, will be presented on Sunday. It is a big sea story in which Miss Phillips has the role of a whirl nutted girl of the sea who inherited from her Irish father, a snuggle, a spirit of hate and twilesties and from her mother the wannabe romantic blood of the Swain.

The Criterion Theatre will present Charles Ray in "The Deuce of Spades," this Saturday. It derives its title from the name of the card which is responsible for the stary misfortunes in the picture. Although the loss of one's entire capital might be regarded as a calamity, the tragedy is submerged in the ripe comedy vein that surfaces the story. It is enacted in Ray's best style; and the interest of an unusual love sleeper to provide a fitting surprise for the climax.
On Sunday, Thomas Neighan will be seen in "H-You Believe It. It's So."

Associated Negro Press.
PARIS, FRANCE, Oct. 4 — Its "Waltz Me Around Again, Willie" in the Paris ballrooms. Jazz is dying and like the old fashioned gowns, old-fashioned dances are coming to the front and replacing the fox trot and the shimmy, and recently there was sold by auction two complete sets of jazz band instruments. Musicians see in it proof that the long reign of jazz is over. The sale was by hotel proprietors to paul bernstein by American Negroes. The Negroes blame a fourteenth-marvelous game of "African golf" between members of five orchestras in a Negro club in Montmartre.

that the Senate proceed to the consideration of House bill 13, being Calendar No. $222^{2}$." Before he could proceed to give the title of the bill Senator Harrison again pressed his suggestion that a quorum was not present. The roll was called and showed a quorum. Senator Hefflin of Alabama then made a motion that the Senate adjourns. This motion was rejected. Finally Senator Shortridge was allowed to proceed.
Senator Shortridge, in presenting the Bill to the Senate, made a very strong and at the same time an exceedingly skilful speech. He was interrupted a number of times by questions and objections, particularly from Senator Shields (Democrat) of Tennessee, who as a member of the judiciary Committee, had greatly opposed the reporting out of the Bill. The manner in which Senator Shortridge met this opposition was so convincing and yet so tactful that it could be felt that the committee it was be exceedingly embarrassing for them to vote against taking the bill up for consideration.
The conclusion of *Senator Shortridge* remarks as follows with interruption by Senator Shields:
"I also realize that we have been in residence for some time, a great many days, weeks, and months; but, so fat as I am concerned, I am willing to stay right here until this bill. I have always been so proud of you. I am to be proud of California, from which State I have been absent until I fear that even my dogs there have forgotten me, through the faithful dog is the last thing on the earth to forget my friend.
"I am anxious indeed, to get home, but is so excited that me that I should be so proud of you. I would rather learn into a comfortable agreement to discuss of the two or three days, each day, if there be any chance we have these questions and to

Mr. Shortridge: I think it was dis-
cussed for a long time; quite un-
necessarily, however.
Mr. Shields: With the Senator's intelligence and comprehension of the condition of affairs in the Senate, when he moved to take this bill up he did not expect it to be taken up and disposed of at this session, did he?
Mr. Shortridge: Things change rapidly. I answer the Senator. If it is correct that it would not be disposed of if taken up; that is true. I had hoped to have it taken up fully ten days ago but there were other bills, and conference reports, the bonus bill, and the tariff bill, which delayed my asking that the bill be taken up. But this is the first time I have felt I had the right to the door since I came here from California, and I do not want to abuse that right. I am willing to be guided by the wisdom of others have made the motion that the bill be proceed immediately, with its consideration, and I have said all I can say perhaps in favor of taking it up.
After Senator Shoortridge concluded his remarks the question of voting upon the consideration of the Bill was discussed. While the vote was pending the question of an quorum was called and the following Senators answered to their names:
Brandeger, Bursum, Cahker, Cameron, Cappet, Cummas, Curtia, France Jones, Wash., McCormick, McKelder, McKary, Moses, Owen, Pepper, Hawson, Bent, Pr., Downey, Shipman, Watson, Watson, Watson.
There being an quorum present the vote was not taken and the Bill automatically went forward to the next session of Congress.

Sutherland, W. Va.; Townsend, Mich.; Warren, Wyo.; Watson, Ind. · The Republican leaders in the Senate state that the only unfinished business on the program of the Steering Committee are the Liberian Loan Bill and the Anti-Lynch bill. They have given definite promises that these two measures will be taken up and finally disposed of at the opening of the next session and before any other legislation is considered.
This is the first fundamental issue of national importance to the colored people of the United States that has been put squally before the Republic of the United States. We have the pledge to enact this legislation in the Republican platform: We have it recommended by the President and we have the promise of its enactment by the leaders of the majority in Congress. We must hold the Senate strictly to those promises, and if the enactment of anti-lynching legislation is not fulfilled before the passing of this Congress on March 3, 1933, we should consider all of these

Harper's "Book of Facts" for 1983
classifies the religious population of
the earth as follows:
**Non Christian**
Buddhists ..... 800,000,000
Brahmans ..... 250,000,000
Mohammadans ..... 180,000,000
Fetch Worshippers ..... 150,000,000

Various ..... 25,000,000
Russian Catholic ..... 175,000,000
Protestants ..... 110,000,000
Greek - Church ..... 90,000,000
Various ..... 25,000,000
Total ..... 400,000,000
These figures, although probably far from exact at this time, are illuminating. The Turkish trouble in the Near East, Britain's attitude, the French position, the Russian situation and its relation to the eastern question and the Colored American's status in the United States are all relevant to the religious census.
Conques and Christianity have gone hand in hand that the ages since a Rosman emperor sponsored the Council of Nice about 1700 years ago. The humble teachings of the Man of Sorrows have been the tool of rulers, the rich and the powerful of the earth for near two thousand years. Of all the faiths of mankind since the dawn of history Christ's teachings contain more pure beauty, and have had more absolute loyalty from the earth's oppressed, but the hope it holds for a better time and a better world has been the very lever that has enabled powerful world groups, to proclaim its beauties and make them a mockery to its true followers. The faith of the humble Christian has given world rulers a perfect hold over, and perfect control of, the masses. What faith and hope of the Christ's teachings has failed to do, fear of hell supplied by coupling the old and new testaments has done.
Wekening Christianity
The Christian religion during the past century has been rapidly losing ground. The increase of education and the powers of analysis created by modern life have combined to cause the masses of men to question all things, religions included. Discrepancies between the theory and practice of Christianity have caused men to lose faith; the intelligences of reasoning men are insulted by the flubbberly which has been manufactured around the humble, human teachings of the Nazarene. Even blind minded tools can see the gaps between "Give thy neighbor as thyself" and a huge temple of fashion built in the name of Christ to which the color of a man's skin is a definite barrige.
If the lesson of Jesus of Nazareth was taught now as it was by Him, the world would be near perfect. As it is the divine teachings have been added to and taken from by the gravelly aspirants of the past 20 centuries until they are almost unrecognizable. Students can see in modern Christianity as practiced, far more resuscitate to the worship of Zoroaster than to the worship of the Son of Man.
Christ and Mohammed
Jesus, the Carpenter, taught of an indirect and distant reward to be gained through humble, right doing Mohammed, the camel driver, taught a religion which made "the believing servant of any race the equal of the ruler of the faithful."
I. G. Wells in his outline says of Muhammad's last sermon at Mecca: "They may not have been sublime words as certain utterances of Jesus were sublime; but they established in the world a great tradition of dignified fair dealing; they breathe a spirit of generosity, (tolerance?), and they are human and workable." Muhammedanism's or Islam's greatest strength lay in its clear cut proof against sectarianism and its destruction of the age old, grafting, blood-sucking priesthood, or ministry. This desert teaching of the One God held no loop hole for the selfish greed of the religious" leader" to get in his fine work. It was distinctively a man faith for free men. It gave its followers a lasting protection against the treacherous manipulations to which every other basic faith has been subjected.
The Colored Christian
Before emancipation our masters were willing and anxious that our fathers preserve the humble teachings of Christ. No large slave owners would allow his Negroes to be taught letters. Today down south almost any Negro church can get the moral and financial support of white people; southern Negro schools are a disgrace to the name of Education.
In the United States greatest Christian nation and the most free the church in addition to its myriad denominational divisions has a racial division which appears to be absolute as the line between Heaven and Hell. No degree of morality is great whether a Negro to enter into a white church in it. The state of your soul doesn't weigh in the balance in the white church.
The color of your skin is all important. Pleasure, faith do not bring enemies in any church in any demeanor that increases producing ability.
be press aggranted), is on the horizon.
As American citizens with all the responsibility the title entails, professing the only faith most of us know, our duty is clear cut and defined and we must, as always, do it. As Colored Americans, segregated, lynched, raped, robbed jarred by law and custom from an enjoyment of the most valuable rights citizenship entails, we are worse than a race of stupidools if we approach participation in a war of this kind without a careful weighing of well known facts. Political promises during the world war, and what they are united to, should stick in the minds of this generation of Negroes.
MILLION WOMEN UNITED TO SUPPRESS LYNCHING
Associated Negro Press
NEW YORK CITY. Oct. 4. At the Spring Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Newark, N. J. Congressman Dr. Ernest of the com. of Drank-Autk Lynchning Bill, said that if one million colored people get together and decided Lynchning must go, it would go.
Sixteen colored women from Five States immediately formed themselves into a Committee of Anti-Lynching Crenders and decided to not to end Lynching and mob violence. This Committee went into permanent organization on July 8. By unanimous vote, Mrs. Mary R. Talbert was elected National Director of the Committee with headquarters at 521 Michigan Ave. Buffalo, N. Y.
This promises to be the biggest and swiftest movement ever undertaken by Colored women. The women of the race have always stood by the men in the hour of need. The hour become when their help is most needed and they should stand firmly together to sweep away this evil which is not only an injustice that falls most heavily upon the Negro, but which makes our Nation a be-war or poem. An added reason is the "fact" that within the past thirty years eighty-three women have been lynched.
This movement is well under way. In addition to the election of Mrs. Mary B. Talbert as national Director, Mrs. Helen Curtis of New York has been chosen as First National Vice Director, Mrs. Butler B. Wilson of Boston, as Second National Vice Director, Mrs. Libilan Alexander of New York as Secretary and Miss Margaret Jackson of 351 Williard Ave. Providence, R. L., as National Organizer, Committees on -Puddlery; Program, Finance, and Campaign Literature, have been formed.
Mrs. Talbert announces that forty prominent colored women in as many states have accepted the duty of State Directors, and that Fifteen, hundred women all over the country have volunteered to act as Key Women.
It is intended that this movement should include all who are interested in Law and Order and Justice. Already a number of individual white women of influence have joined the movement, and it is the intention to secure the co-operation of all the powerful organizations among white women in the country.
The netual carrying out of the plan began Sunday, October 1st, with a Sunrise Prayer Meeting in the Churches throughout the Country as it is felt that this Campaign should begin, by involving the blessing and help of God upon it.
The practical object of the movement is to raise One Million Dollars to be given by a Million women through sacrifice and self-denial and to serve as a fund to be used to stamp out lynching and for the defense of the Negro in his fundamental rights as an American citizen.
Arrangements are being made to have the Guaranty Trust Company of New York act as the Depository for the fund.
The BLOGAN is! "A MILLION WOMEN UNITED TO SURPRESS LYNCHING."
Associated Negro Press
SOUTH BEND, Ind. Oct. 4. No blood test was made to determine if Harry Poulin or Professor John Tiernan is the father of Exhibit A—taby Mrs. Tiernan says is the son of Poulin—unless it is ordered by the court. When Poulin was asked on the stand last Monday if he would submit to the blood test to prove he was not the father, as he had just testified, his attorneys saved him from answering by objections to the question. The case is of special interest because of its likeness to a case where a young woman in Vincennes refused to take a blood test to determine if she had Negro blood in her veins. She was trying to break her father's will, and won her cash.

JANE HUNTER PRAISED BY WILLIAM PICKENS
Praxton News Service
Preston News Service
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Oct. 4. Special
Correspondence: In a recent interview with
Dr. William Pickens, the notet
lecturer and orator, he had the follow-
ing to say regarding June Hunter, the
founder of the local Phyllis Wheatley
Association:
"You have heard of Jane Adams, of
Hull House. Well, there is also Jane
Hunter, of the Phyllis Wheatley
Association in Cleveland, Ohio. Miss
Adams is Canesian; Miss Hunter is
Negro. I do not know where Jane
Adams was born, and it makes no dif-
ference, but I shapped to know that
Jane Hunter came to pass in South
Carolina, famous for its eras of virile
colored folk.
"To me it is remarkable that Miss Hunter, who is not an institution but only an individual, has been able to win the respect and the cooperation of the most eminent white women of Cleveland. I find these women have so full a faith in her that they have refused to put the Phyllis Whettley Association under the Y. W. C. A. national office, believing that it is a more effective work under the untrammed management of Miss Hunter than it would be if managed by some absentee parties. I agree with them.

MEMPIHS, Teem, Oct. 4. Last
Monday morning a large number of
the leading Negroes of the tristate

of Friends, The Wise Men and Women
to the World, the Order of the Immu-

fraternal societies throughout the
country.
The Rev. Eleanor J. Parkins, pastor

lack of faith in colored women. I do not happen to know of a case where any woman manifest higher confidence in any kind of woman than these prominent whites—show in Jane Hunter. "I also discover Miss Hunter meanwhile has not enjoyed the full confidence of many of her own race who live in her town. Many of them think she was starting a "Jim Crow" institution. They do not know that "Jim Crow" is something done to you and against you—not something done by men and for yourself."
National Deputy, United Sons And Daughters of Ethiopia
THE WEDDING OF MARY
In line with their policy of securing, the best talent available the United Sons and Daughters of Ethiopia wish to announce to the general public the appointment of Mrs. Tille Griffin as a National Deputy. Mrs. Griffin is recognized as one of the foremost organizers of the Negro race. A woman who by her brilliant attentions and deep insight has risen to the prominence of a national character and bids fair to become a world figure in fraternal circles. Intelligence, progressive, business, like, and a firm believer in the masses, she has no peer as an organizer as well as being a sincere earnest leader of her people. Well can we quote the tribute of the immortal Pope on "Worth" in his essay on man "Honor and shame from no condition rise, act well your part therein all honor lies."
Believing in the sound basic principles of the United Sons and Daughters of Ethiopia, Mrs. Griffin joined them. Conscious of the ability and sincerity of this national character the U. S. & D. of E. appointed her National Deputy. She is Worthy Counselor, Executor Court No. 14, State Grand Mother Queen A. U. K. & D. of A.. Most Excellent Queen Morocco Council No. 101, A. U.

Liberia Adopting American Ideas
Associated Negro Press
MONROVIA, LIBERIA, Aug. 2.
Special Mail Correspondence to A. N.
P. The Liberian and Sierra Leone
Coast districts are beginning to
show an interest in matters that has
a distinctly European and American
flavor. Here, in Liberia, agriculture,
and its scientific development along
the coast and in the Hinterlands is
being given most serious consideration.
Among our neighbor friends the Sierra
Leoneans, the census question appears
to be uppermost in their minds.
It is not clear at this writing just what
is the motivating impulse behind the
discussion but that it is quite warm
and general there can be no question
of doubt raised.
"There is a great necessity for a Bureau of Agriculture in this country, with a competent officer at the head." is the way a high government official has recently put the question. Continuing, he further declares, "It is a well known fact that the wealth and prosperity of any country depend in a large measure on its natural cultivated products. Any country as ours in the absence of the spirit in its people that will lead to productiveness cannot be reasonably expected to make material progress."
This cry is being taken up by the rank and file of the people. It is more than likely to be one of the important matters that will be sheerly considered by the next congress of the Republic. It is proposed to make it one of the features of the Centenary celebration now close at hand. And behind it is the thought that a comprehensive agricultural program will do much to bolster up a more friendly relationship between the Liberian populace and native people in the Republic because whatever is done in this direction must include a careful consideration of the part this native populace plays in the actual economic situations in all the parts of the land.
It is agreeable to note that education is regarded an essential element of the proposed plan. Finally it is further proposed to extend this educational program feature so that its benefits can be given to the Protectorate indigenous of the Hinterland. This will mean strength coming to the Republic from a practically inexhaustible source of supply of man power and wealth productiveness. Farming, scientific farming, if you please, will be the backbone of the Republic's prosperity for a good many years to come. There are some signs that there is much of potential mineral wealth, particularly in the Hinterland sections, but this will undoubtedly remain unused until such time as when the fundamentals of prosperity shall have laid a solid foundation for their exploitation.
Coffee, ocean, kola, sugarcane are the agricultural staples of the country. Liberian coffee is indigenous to the soil and has already gained a worldwide reputation for its fine flavor. It is preferred by many foreign people to any grown elsewhere, owing to its very agreeable and aromatic taste. The Coconut industry needs to be encouraged. It grows exuberantly in Liberian soil and can easily be made a profitable part of the proposed agricultural plan. Kola can be made easily, one of our chief export products. They are about six species of Kola. The red seed seems to be more appreciated then white. It possesses highly stimulative and nourishing properties. Kolarina and Kola-cholate are the new additions to the "cupid cheers," but does not inebriate. Last and possibly most important is sugar cane. The fertility of the soil and the climate are in favor of making Liberian one of the greatest sources of the world's sugar supply. It is Very gratifying to note that the proposed Bureau of Agriculture idea include sugar production as one of its main features.
The Census as hearing on the school question of the country is just now engaging the interest of our very friendly neighbors over in Sierra Leone. Over there there is special interest found in the education of the native citizens. In the course of a comment on the report of the Colonial government on the matter of education, the "Weekly News" of Free Town, has the following to say regarding it: "There could be no justification for this neglect especially when it is borne in mind that there is not a single girl accessible to any of the existing schools managed by the Government. We were quite gratified with the report that His Excellency was impressed with the intelligence shown by some of the chiefs; but we say, some things here is required, if these men must effectively represent their people by their own judgment and not by any pressure from above, be made to serve as "lying echoes" of some dominant chords. It is a policy of a distressed educational system, however elementary in the Hinterland that in course of time would produce this. The more ignorant the people are, the more difficulty it would be for a European to read what is at the back of their minds. It is no wonder then that after a period of twenty-six years aensus report in the year 121 could show in the several District informations only under the following heads: Area in square miles, number of houses number of persons per house, total number of persons.
Total number of houses. 239,148.
Men. 425,173; Women. 500,190; Children. 426,581; Grand Total 1,450,903.

On Sunday, Sept. 17, the Ebenezeb Baptist Church received somewhat of a spiritual surprise, by the divine, excellent and constructive sermon preached by the pastor, Rev. G. W. Dickerson.
This Church at present has a so-called, "brick rally" to assist in building a new modern brick structure.
*** Tuesday evening, Ebenezeb showed her loyalty in the form of an entertainment given by the Wide Awake Bible Class, in honor of Mr. Girtland T. Bryant, who is soon to become a student at the University of Chiego.

LARGE THRONG WITNESS "Y" CORNERSTONE LAYING
Pittsburgh Colored Men Believe Their $250,000 Edifice Will Be Finest For The Race In Country. Preston News Service
PITTSBURGH, Pa., Oct. 4—Fully twelve thousand persons witnessed the impressive ceremonies attending the cornerstone laying last Sunday afternoon at the new $250,000 Y. M. C. A. building Center avenue and Francis street. The ceremonies were conducted by the Free and Accepted Masons under the direction of District, Deputy Grand Master, Edward M. Sidutton. Negroes of Pittsburgh appear to be exceptionally delighted with this evidence of progress on the Y. M. C. A. building as the funds for the erection of this structure were raised several years ago. Officials of the association claim that delay in construction was due to the high cost of material and labor. It is said that this edifice, when completed, will be the finest Colored "X" in the country. The principal addresses were delivered by Dr. J. E. Moorland and Judgeoseph Ruffington. Other speakers were: Samuel R. Morsell executive secretary and Hegekjah Anderson, chairman of the board of directors. It is expected that the building will be ready for use by the last of December as the structure is now above the second door. The contractor is working a large crew and expects to have all the outside work completed within the next four or five weeks.

THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, OCT. 6.
MY WANTS
DO not, want a fortune great;
I do not seek the cares of state.
With all their glitter and their glare,
And wicked schemes afloat in air.
I do not yearn for power or place;
Nor would I take part in the race
For gold—I only ask that I
May sow good will while passing by;
And that when I am laid below
The cool, green sod, where daisies blow.
Some one will pause a bit, and then
Declare: "He helped his fellowmen."
I do not covet mansions grand,
Nor acres broad on every hand;
I do not yearn for jewels bright.
To dazzle my poor neighbor's sight;
I do not yearn to take command,
And order men on every hand—
I only ask that I may go
Along a road where flowers blow,
And dying, have men pause and say:
"He scattered sunshine all the way."
Let others dig and delve for gold;
Let others place of power hold;
Let others with a lordly air.
Stand forth within the limelight's glare:
Let others trade on hopes and fears,
And profit by the sobs and tears
Of those they wreck. I only ask
The strength to do each daily task,
Then homeward go with heart elate
And greet my loved ones at the gate;
Then, dying, have men pause a while
And say: "He gave the world a
smile."

Something to Think About
By F. A. WALKER
BEND OF THE ROAD
WETHER in the work-a-day world, in the lecture room, or in some chosen field of diversion where honor is at stake, you may sometimes become depressed at your slow progress in attaining your heart's fondest wishes. Your friends seem to go sailing on favorable tides, while you are beset by adverse currents and opposing gales. Or you may be doggedly climbing steep hills while they are striding merrily on a level road with the wind at their back, the sunshine playing hide-and-seek among the gleaming leaves, while the birds redouble their songs to give encouragement and make the journey pleasant.
Ferrer-faced men and bobbed-haired, spectacled girls are making their mark, while you with your good-looking features, your stout and healthy body, of which you are admittedly vain, seem all the while, to be flirting with open failure, unable to dodge it, in spite of your desire to do so.
Or again, in your frequent moods of dejection, you may fancy that Fate has a grudge against you, and is fully determined to hold you in hobdage until the final farthing has been paid, all of which, if you will soberly reflect, is but an absurd phantasm of the mind.
If you have good sense without vanity, a penetrating mind and a disposition to "live and let others live" with a fair amount of energy, there is no reason at all why you should complain.
To deal honestly with yourself in such matters, compare your temperament, manners, industry and dress with those upon whom you incline to look with scowling eyes and envious heart.
After such an examination, if you should find a deficiency banish it, summon all your resolution and press forward on the right road. Let no impediment oppress you. To overcome obstacles you must climb over them or seek another course. Do this persistently, faithfully and without faltering, for there is a bend in the road just beyond, where the signboard tells you, as it has been told thousands of others, which way you should go.
Those whom you have been envying, those plain persons whose presence you shun, have within them a fine nobility of soul; which you might with profit to yourself imitate and acquire if you go about it in the right spirit and possibly in the end beat them to the goal.
The Rising Generation.
Truly this is the age of "Missouri" and even babies and sucklings have to be "shown."
A Portland business woman living in an East side apartment has made a loyal subject of her landlord's five-year-old son. The woman has had extensive stage experience and her bedtime stories get over enrapturingly. By way of variety and in the interest of culture a recent narrative was the tragic history of Adam and Eve told with dramatic fidelity to the record. Noting a brown silence on the part of the small auditor at the conclusion of the story, the woman said: "Well, how do you like that story, isn't it a good one?"
"No-o-o" slowly and reflectively replied the venerable critic. "Sorter—at or—foolish." —Portland Oregonian.
The Terna-Arica situation is reported broadened. But it will have to be stretched to permit a settlement.

MEXICO IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY
MEXICO IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY
5000 acres of the richest land in the republic of Mexico, known as the Puxmetzenan track, located in the state of Vera Cruz and Oaxaca, which is in the heart of the tropical garden of America. In the heart of what is destined to be the greatest agriculture and oil fields in the world. This track of land was bought by the leading white capitalist of Kansas City, for a white colony, about four years ago. Months were spent in selecting this track, but the war came on and blocked their plans. Now this track will be divided into small tracks to be sold to Colored people at a price and terms that will enable every Colored man who wants a real Old Mexico farm to have one. This same class of land in California will cost you from $300.00 to $500.00 per acre, as two and three crops can be raised a year without irrigation and the healthiest location in all Mexico—where you will get well on climate—not medicine and the oil prospects as you know is the best. These land will sell for $20.00 per acre, with $20 down and two years time to pay the balance with small payments.
This is the greatest opportunity of your life. Don't miss this opportunity to invest in an Old Mexico farm. When you buy one of these farms you are not prospecting with your money for a vein of gold that will never be found or boring a hole for oil or gas that will never burn, but you are buying a farm at the lowest price that land was ever legitimately sold. Whether you go to Old Mexico to live or not your investments in these choice tracks will be safe and immediately profitable. Come to freedom, come to health and to wealth.

The real big money of today is to be made in selling goods. And if you can get the right kind of goods to sell and secure exclusive territory (a place to sell goods where no one else can sell them) any one can make money and make it fast.
An unusually good line is the Fair Flex Toilet articles. There are no toilet articles on the market that beats them and there are none at their price that equals them. They are sold only by authorized representatives. And the drug stores cannot get them as quick as you get some good customers.

LANE TABERNACLE SUNDAY SCHOOL TO GIVE ANNUAL PROGRAM WEDNESDAY NIGHT
An annual event of Lane Tabernacle Sunday School that is looked forward to with much delight.
and address of the Sunday School Superintendent. This remarkable affair will take place Wednesday evening the 11th. We must admit that the program has been good in past years and promises to continue its past record this Wednesday night. Eight city Sunday Schools will also take part in the program. Superintendent Diner E. Phillips says refreshments will be served free to all those fortunate enough to be present Wednesday night.
Last Sunday was a glorious day in Lane Tabernacle. Rev. N. L. Smith probed a lovely sermon at which the congregation marched. It was ladies and girls' day and each side received an equal share of joy from the occasion. The ladies bent the gentlemen in the contest offering Sunday night the ladies had gained such a large lead Sunday morning until it was impossible for the girls to overcome. The ladies won.
General class meeting was largely attended Sunday afternoon. Rev Smith performed excellently Sunday night. Nine new members were added Sunday. Rev Smith departed for Nashville, Tenn. Monday but will return for service Sunday. Our steward Board was photographed by Mr. Maxwell last Sunday. The pictures came out excellent, and can be seen Sunday morning. Twenty-five stewards and the pastor appear on the picture. Members of the congregation who would like to have a picture can secure some by placing an order with Mr. J. C. Campbell.
There will be a sweet little Japanese Tea party green by the Good Samaritan Club and Morning Star Sunday School class at the home of Mrs. I. B.

The New Progressive class took first financial benefit and started out for the monthly cash prize which will be donated this month of five Sundays. The young Men's Bible Class and Morning Star expet to halt Mr. I. B. Reest's crew before the 6th Sunday.
CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH
Pastor Sage Brown was present last Sunday morning looking very happy. Rev H. D. Prowd, Superintendent of Baptist Foreign Missions of Central America, delivered the Message, Text, Romans 6:4. "We also should walk in Newness of life." He made it very plain what should be done after one had accepted Christ as his Savior and been baptized. "Was to walk in the newness of life."
Rev R. H. C. Sydnor baptized two sisters, whose next steps are: "To Walk in the Newness of life." Rev. S. J. Branch brought to us on Sunday night another one of his instructive messages.
Central has been wonderfully blest in having able ministers, to preach God's word since the pastor has been "Shut in."
Groups are conducting prayer meetings on Friday nights, as usual.

Mother Do Kills Puppies

PITTNURGH, Pa. Oct. 4—All
this talk about mother dogs being the

Rena, an Airdale, owned by Henry

COLORED BANKERS AFTER PART OF HAITIAN BONDS
Associated Negro Press
NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 4. A group of Colored bankers and financiers have been in conference with Wall Street bankers for the purpose of having allotted to them $000,000 and possibly $1,000,000 of the $16,000,000 of Haitian bonds soon to be placed on the market.
There is a desire to buy in these bonds, not only for their splendid investment value as backed by the U. S. Government, but in order to manifest a tangible economic interest in the future development of Haiti.
The bankers were given every reason to believe that th allotment will be made, and if made, it is retained that the amount will soon be disposed of.

LESSON FOR OCTOBER 8
THE BIRTH AND CHILDHOOD OF
JESUS
JESSON TEXT—Luke 2:1-30. 6-12
BONDEN TEXT—and Jesus increased
in wisdom and nature, and in favor with
God and man. Luke 2:3
REFERENCE MATERIAL—Matt 1:3-
2:2
PRIMARY TOPIC—The Boy Jesus.
JUNIOR TOPIC—The Boyhood of Jesus.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—
Jesus at Home and at School.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—
The Religious Training of the Young.
1. The Birth of Jesus (xx. 1-7).
1. Time of (vv. 1, 3). It was at a time when the Jews were coming under the Romans power. It was a most propitious time for the introduction of the gospel. The whole world was under one rule, making it possible for ministers to go from place to place easily and without obstruction.
2. Place of (vv. 4, 6). Bechehem, as the prophet had foretold 700 years before (Micah 5:22). God moved the emperor to enforce the decree of taxation in time to cause Mary to be at Bechehem.
3. Circumstances of (vv. 7). His surroundings were of the most humble sort. The Almighty Creator condemned to take upon himself humanity—to be born in a manger, becoming the poorest of the poor that none might be immersed from coming to Him.
4. The Birth of Jesus Announced (vv. 8-29).
1. To Whom (vv. 8, 9). The shepherds who were watching over their flocks by night. The garrulous gospel message was first given to laboring men.
2. By Whom (vv. 9). The first gospel sermon was preached by the angel of the Lord. The angels have part in making known the gospel to lost men. These glorious beings no doubt deeply sympathize with fallen, sin-cursed men.
3. The Nature of the Message (vv. 10-14). It was good tidings of great joy. It was good tidings because the way of salvation was about to be opened for all—Jew and Gentile. So glorious was this news that a multitude of the heavenly host accompanied it with a song of praise. It is through Jesus Christ that God's kindness and good will are made known to man.
4. The Shepherds Witnessing (vv. 15-20). They made a prompt investigation of the angel's message.
111. The Child Jesus Growing (vv. 40-52).
Jesus Christ was divine, but His delity did not interfere with His development as a human being. The processes of his physical, mental and spiritual growth were the same as those of any normal human being.
1. Jesus Tarrying Behind at Jerusalem (vv. 40-43). At the age of twelve years a Jewish child took his place as a worshiper in the temple, for he was considered a "child of the law." Being conscious of His mission when His mother and Joseph were returning from attendance at the Passover, Jesus tarried behind to enter the temple and inquire into the meaning of the ordinances of God's house.
2. Jesus Found in the Temple (vv. 44-47). When His mother and Joseph had gone some distance on their journey they perceived that Jesus was missing and sought for Him among their kinsfolk and acquaintances. Not finding Him there they returned to Jerusalem, where they found Him in the temple. (1) He was "sitting" (v. 46), showing that He was no passing visitor or sightseer. He was perfectly at home in His Father's house. (2) He was "bearing" (v. 46). He was hearing the teachers of God's Word. This shows that He was eager to learn God's will. (3) He asked questions (v. 46). His growing mind was inquisitive. It more than received what was taught; it inspired after. (4) He answered questions (v. 47). His answers showed great wisdom, such as to astonish those who heard Him. Yet he should not surprise him. It was consciously displaying His wisdom. It was not an exhibition of His divine wisdom, but the expression of the workings of a perfect human mind suffused by the Holy Spirit.
3. Mary's Complaint (vv. 48-50).
She demonstrated with Him for his behavior. To this He replied in a dignified, yet tender manner. He made no apology, showing that He was more than the son of Mary.
4. Jesus' Obedience (v. 51). Though He was fully conscious of His divine being and mission, He lived a life of final obedience.
5. Jesus' Development (v. 52). (1) Mental. He "increased in wisdom." (2) Physical. He "increased in stature." (3) Spiritual. He "increased in favor with God and man."
Wisdom to Be resired.
Wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are apt to be compared to it—Proverba 8:11.
Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action. - Disarmell.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN
From the Address by William Pickens at Laying of Wreath on base of Lincoln Statue, Union Square, New York City, September 22. The Sixteenth Anniversary of the Issuance of the Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation.
By The Associated Negro Press
Lincoln knew that his country could not remain and endure half slave and half free—that it could not endure with irreconcilable contradictions in its civilization and its law. That means also that it cannot remain half disfranchising and half not disfranchising, half given to lynching and half not given to lynching. It must be all one thing of the kind, or all the other.
The exigencies and the necessities of war gave Lincoln a chance to sniff an institution which he had, always hated - chattel slavery - an opportunity to partially destroy one of the most dangerous of anomalies and contradictions in his country. If he lived today he would know that the nation cannot continue to handle some of its citizens by law and the others by mobs, and that either law or mob must finally be supreme. When he was quite a young man, a mutatto was lynched and burned in St. Louis, and he made a remarkable prediction of what would be the condition of civilization in his country if lynching was allowed to persist, a prediction partly borne out by the lynching of nearly 4,000 persons in the last four decades. In that speech he asked the question:
"How shall we fortify against it, and he answered: 'Let every American, every lover of liberty, every well-wisher to his posterity, swear by the blood of the Revolution never to violate in the least particular the laws of his country, and never to tolerate their violation by others.'"
He believed in the supremacy of LAW, and not, in the license of wrath or anger or prejudice or brute force. And there is no doubt that if he lived today, he would support a national law against lynching, not in the interest of any particular class or group of men, but in the interest of the civilization of his country and the common happiness of its whole citizenship—the same broad spirit which made him the enemy of slavery.
CURRENT AND OTHERWISE
(For the Associated Negro Press)
The burden for improving "race relations" between the black and white elements of the population in the United States of America rests almost entirely on the shoulders of the white peoples. The issue must be met squaredly and this placement of responsibility must be held to firmly by Negroes in particular. The South seeks to justify its maintenance of the most disgraced order of serfdom in the history of the world by declaring the victims of the system "naturally human inferiores." The North condones this attitude by organizing Commissions on Race Relations which issue "reports containing skillfully vied inferences that the Negro must busy himself to the end that he shall give convincing proof of his fitness to be tabulated among the worthwhile elements of the nation's citizenry. On the first of October the Chicago Commission on Race Relations will issue "The Negro in Chicago; A Study of Race Relations and a Race Riot." An epitome of the Report has been issued in advance of its fuller statements and conclusions. About 31 recommendations will be included in the Report. These recommendations relate to the police and the militia; the speedy rhin, without regard to color, of all persons arrested in connection with rioting; prompt and vigorous action by the police, states attorney and courts to suppress bombing outrages of all classes; facetiousness in dealing with cases in which Negroes are involved; the ridding of Negro residence areas of vice resorts; better co-operation between city and park schools; bathing beaches and other recreation places; the punishment of persons found guilty of stoning houses or committing such other depressions likely to arouse race antigonism; control of race antigonism by scaled patriotic organizations; the practice of Negroes laying off work without good cause; the need for Negroes to learn skilled trades even though there is no present opportunity to engage in their suggestions to the daily press regarding its reports of news matter in which Negroes are or are created principals and further suggestions to the Negroes regarding its attitude toward news matter relating to reports of incidents involving Negroes and whites. The SUMMARY of the report will treat of The Migration of Negroes From the South, Distribution and Density. Neighborhoods of Negro Residence The Negro Community, Crime and Vicious Environment. Racial Contacts. Contacts in Public Schools. Recreation. Contacts in Transportation. The Negro in Chicago Industries. Increase in Negro Labor. Classification of Negro Workers. Labor Turnover. Industrial Depression. Labor Union Relations. Public Opinion. Beliefs Concerning the Negro. The Press. The Negro Press and Propaganda are among the topics discussed in this portion of the Report.
This is a big and comprehensive program. It is lifted to the plane, of active and present consideration/ by the circumstances of a riot that included the population of a wide section of the southern portion of the City of Chicago. Looking at the matter from a wholly impartial point of view there is small doubt that the blame for the very unfortunate happening lbs at the door of the city's court and police departments. The court and the police departments are entirely in the hands of the white elephant of the city's population. The Nairobi part in the conduct of these departments is so small that it can be discontinuated in
THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, OCT. 6, 1922
the blacks and whites. There are bad Negroes, very bad Negroes. A look at the police records in other than riot times reveal that the police forces are thoroughly capable of handling the "bad nigger" situation. Except as a basis of information for whites as to their particular duty to provide adequate safeguards for the city's welfare and prosperity I can see no reason for the organization of the Commission on Race Relations. I agree that the bill of particulars presented in the Commission's report appear formidable, sufficiently so to warrant the labor and time required to bring it into being. But that is all. When the average American realizes that the Negro is an unwitting resident of the continent; that the conditions of slavery are not reliable data upon which to establish the inferiority of peoples; that Negro slave labor made it possible for the country to get on stable geonomic base; that the Negro constitutes a reliable and brave contigent in the exigency of war; that the Negro, is commendably ambitions, thrift, and industrious wherever he is kindly and disinterestedly directed, then race riots will not occur and whatever slight reasons may exist for the organization of Commissions on Race Relations will disappear finally and for a time. The superiority of a people is determined by their ability to wisely govern. The Ostrich is not the only bird who persists in pushing his head into the sand. I am for a real not a mock DEMORACY.
WHAT NBGRO BUSINESS NEEDS
IN ST. LOUIS.
By Attorney John A. Davis.
The reports coming from the larger cities of the country, depicting in glowing terms the tremendous strides being made in the growth of Negro Business, have focused the attention of our business men on this phase of racial development in St. Louis. The average business man passing through St. Louis almost invariably comments on the wonderful possibilities of the development of Race Business in our city. That same business man is amazed at the inertia of Negro Business—the lack of business cooperation, the lack of confidence between the business man and the layman, and the absence of racial business consciousness, that he finds existent.
It is not to be expected that St. Louis should outstrip such populous centers as New York, Chicago, or Washington, but it is contended that she should at least hold her own in the development of Race Business. The working and living conditions here are unsurpassed by any city in the country. Work is plentiful and the wages paid are on a par with those paid in the larger cities. Property is cheaper and the housing condition, while acute, is much better than any city north of the Mason and Dixon line. Foodstuffs and clothing are reasonable because St. Louis is the central point of distribution of those articles South and Southwest.
On the surface it is impossible to account for our existent state of business inertia. Living in a city that is one of the leading industrial centers of the country the St. Louis Negro should be economically independent, yet he has not a single first class hotel or theater to take the members of his family or his friends to spend a pleasant evening. There is not even a bank owned or operated for the benefit of colored people. Excepting the Poro College which is a monument of its kind, no beautiful or modern-appointed building of any description, house or business enterprises. Our insurance companies, our professional men and the other allied undertakings conducted by the members of our group are only meagerly successful—in other words, Negro Business in St. Louis is not attended by the same success that attends Negro Business elsewhere.
The opinion prevails throughout the country that Negro business in St. Louis is gripped with inertia. That opinion caused St. Louis to lose thousands of would be St. Louisans during the migratory period of Negroes from the South. Trained and experienced business men of our group gave St. Louis a wide berth in the selection of new centers of industrial development. Young men, commercially and professionally trained, studiously avoid setting in St. Louis. Even the graduates of our local schools seek their careers elsewhere.
What is wrong with Negro business in St. Louis? Does St. Louis offer less prospect of success to our need than do the larger cities? Why is so much indifference manifested towards our business enterprises? What are the underlying causes contributing to the inertia of Negro business? Are we less concerned about the success of our enterprises or are we less appreciative of economic independence than are the citizens of other cities? The evidence at hand points that way. Everywhere the subject is discussed the answer to these questions is that we should develop cooperation and confidence between the business man and the lawman, and endeavor further to cultivate a raftal business consciousness.
"The big" training that is being sought by the Negro youth along modern commercial lines will go for naught unless opportunity is given him to apply his training, in a position. That position will be created and can only be created by an expansion of Negro Business. Such a business is going to thrive in proportion to the amount of Negro patronage that it enjoys. That old axiom, "United we stand and divided we fall" should be the understanding of the business man and the layman. Spend your money with the Negro business man and you have the way for the expansion of that business; you create a position that will be filled by you and your children after you. Your failure to support that business means its failure and that you will not enjoy the lucrative position that that business would have had to offer you. In other words, if Negro Business is to be successful, if positions are to be created in that business for the Negro youth, there must be the highest cooperation between the business man and the layman.
Cooperation can only be established by absolute confidence between the business man and the layman. An absence of this quality means the failure of the business. Success is not achieved in a day but is the product of earnest patient endeavour characterized by fair play all along the time.
been tried by some of our men and their consequent failure have lessened considerably the Negro layman's confidence in Negro business men. This condition must be overcome. The majority of our business mid professional men are honest and should not suffer by reason of the rascally_methods of a small number of crooks. Honesty must permeate the system—fault must be established, and the thing needed to free Negro business from its grp, of inertia will have begun its work.
Cooperation and confidence will lead to the success and expansion of our enterprises with a consequent pride in our economic achievement, and a new dignified racial consciousness that will teach us that St. Louis is a good place to live in.
THE OPEN COOR.
A Study of Practical Religion.
It has been said that the social function of culture was never to be completely satisfied with anything, never to rest upon any attainment on achievement or upon its grounds and promises, but to be always pressing on, always seeking, always reviewing in the light of further advancement, ever digging up and reexamining to the end of possible advancement.
The development of the Christian culture—the Christian religion—certainly affords all mankind the most brilliant example and the most priceless references for achievement, for growth, for unity and for solidarity of any agency that has ever contributed to human perfection. Wherever its advice has been applied and respected there has been no hesitancy in the steady march of human progress.
it has suffered many abuses, but it trudges gloriously on. There are religious men who abound in words, who are full of doctrines and authorities, of barren speculation and fruitless controversy whose fine essays and unprofitable sermons are read—not preached from palpits every summer and winter; churches that do no practical good and church members who only, number the ground and contribute nothing to the thirst of the tired wayfarer except to remind him of the parable of the fig tree.
There are religious men who boast of their superiority or race and yet practice all that inferiority is supposed to personify. He stubbornly refuses his brother almost every indulgence of civilization except the privilege of war, which he proudly grants with no reluctance, and expects him to do wonders on promise. These are they who "walk silent among disputes and assertions and reject not disputes nor anything that is asserted" or else they advance "a 'brotherhood' of words which do not emerge in action."
Such are those who will catch the most vivid pleurement some day of the lines from the old Negro spiritual:
When de stars begin to fall."
If, as Aristotle—the most consumate of ancient erudition—says, "the state came into being that man might exist, but its end is that man might be noble," then the great purpose of the state should be to obtain and sustain nobility, i.e. possessing, characterized by, arising from or indicating superiority or commanding excellence of mind or character, or high ideals or morals, above whatever is low, mean, degrading or dishonorable.
The Wayfarer often sits like Rodin's "Thinker" and wonders about the eight-foot Bible at Oxford or the Lord's prayer engraved on a sherry stone at Pittsburgh and his thoughts may carry to 1 John 2:9, 10, 11.
"He that saith he is in the light and hateth his brother is in the darkness even until now." "and knoweth not whither he goeth."
Real Christian religion is always and ever demonstrating the old Latin proverb, "oraret labora," prayer and work. And it can be applied to every item in the account of life. The life of the individual, the group or the nation, both public and private, and especially the latter, for thereby hangs the purity of the whole. One of the grandest things ever written of John Calvin, profound scholar, able thinker that he was, and perhaps the greatest theologian that ever lived, except Augustine, and cited by Renan, no prejudiced judge, as the "greatest Christian of his time," was that his private character was in harmony with his public reputation and position.
It is hard to imagine and impossible to conjecture what the Negro in America would do without his religion and the religion of the friends he has made and made fast. And it is up to him to make his religion yet more a fine art, for God is on his side—arguments to the contrary notwithstanding—to make it that kind of art Ruskin talked of in which the hand, the heart and the head go together * * * making a little group of wise men better than a wilderness of tools."
The struggle is on for the glory of our God and our race. Our nature is precious, our religion is divine. We must get into our clothes and pray and when we come out we must proceed to show God that we mean business and things are going to happen.

TWO WIVES, TWO BABIES TOO MUCH. IS ARRESTED
Associated Negro Press.
EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill., Oct. 4.—Mrs. Alice Johnson of W. Lawrence Ave., was putting her young baby to bed last Monday night when the door-bell ring. Bundling the baby in a blanket she answered the ring and, found a good-looking woman of her own age who asked for Mr. Johnson.
"Well, you see"—and the caller made a short story of the rest of it—I married him, too, and I have a baby girl, pretends like the one you've got in your arms, and he left me and never came back. I went to his mother's funeral Saturday and he wasn't there. His sister told me she heard he married you."
The news was too much for the second wife, who fainted.
After an hour's talk the two deserted wives wept together and decided that, while there was little chance of either of them ever getting support they could at least save other girls from marrying Johnson. They had him arrested.

"What's in a Name?"
BY MILDRED MARSHALL
Facts about your name; its history;
meaning; whence it was derived;
significance; your lucky day;
and lucky jewel
OF CURIOUS Teutonic origin is Aline. It signifies "noble" and belongs to the great cycle of names evolved from the prefixes, Aethal, or Adel, which mean high-born or noble. Athalaric, the conqueror of Rome, was a forerunner of the feminine Alline. Since he was oft known as Alaric, the process of evolution is more easily discernible.
Early in the Ninth century, the feminine name of Adolphine was coined in Germany and brought to England. Though it was soon contracted to Dolfine—a name still common in Germany—the original name remained long enough to become the predecessor of Aline, through slurring the consonants. One of the daughters of Waltheor, earl of Northumbria, was so culled and it is believed that her christening set the fashion for the barbarous names which made their appearance in England about that time.
Aline bears no connection with Ellen, which is the Irish version of Eleanor, nor with Alleen, which is another form of the same name, though the similarity in pronunciation is striking. Aline, however, is more popular in this country than either of the other two. Aline's talismanic gem is the ruby. It will protect its wearer from danger, and disease, bring her courage and success. Tuesday is her lucky day and three her lucky number. The lily of purity is her flower.

"If You Can Spot Me," Slogan Of New Religious Cult
"If You Can Spot Me," Slogan Of New Religious Cult
GREENWOOD, S. C., Oct. 5.—This town is being swept by a new religious faith which requires its adherents to stand up at each religious service and dare the rest of the congregation to disclose any misdeed of which they are guilty. It is said that the members of the cult shout with such fervor that they can be heard for blocks on quiet nights. It is claimed, that this cult wages relentless war on sin in all forms.
The faith is known as the Pentecostal Baptist and is led by Rev David Strom, who is an iron moulder by day and a preacher at night and on Sunday. At present they have no church building, but hold their meetings in a shack in a section of ill reputed, known as Buttertown.
Residents of Buttertown declare that the noise of worship is now far greater than the noise of Buttertown in its wildest moods, but the noise is of thanksgiving for salvation instead of the shriek of jazz bands and squealing of catheters singers yelling some form of the "Blues."
It is claimed that Strom is a remarkable speaker and his senses attract the delights of the dives to come to his service, to hear him preach. At the beginning of each service, each member stands up to be "patted." Each member stands up in turn and address the congregation: "If you

A messenger here last Wednesday from the forests of King's county reported the meeting between the king of the Kinnear circle and the monarch of the North Westie last Tuesday. He is dead. Demingey escaped with a torn pair of breaches. Demingey learned last Thursday for the first time of the defeat of Georges Carpenter, former light heavyweight champion, by the Sereneway Sikh.
"I am very sorry of hear it and very much surpried, he said. This Sikh must be a good man."
Asked if he would meet the Senegalese, Demingey replied that he was not sure of the latter's intent to the championship, any time if proper arrangements were made.
St. Louis Stars Win Two of Three Games From The Detroit Americans
Colored Boys Surprise Baseball Fans With Spectacular Plays And Have Major Leaguers At Their Mercy, Meyers And Oldham Are Winning Pitchers. Charleston And Warfield Star With Daring Base Running. The Former And Russell Get Home Runs. Warfield Steals Honie On Cole. Thrilling 7 Run Rally Staged.
The St. Louis Stars made a great showing in the three game series with the Dearil Americans, winning two out of three ball games. On Monday they defeated the Tigers 5 to 4 in a thrilling contest. On Tuesday the Stars came from behind with a seven run rally in eighth innings, winning the game 11 to 7. The Stars were unable to hit Moore, a lefthander on Wednesday and went down to defeat in the third game, the score being 10 to 3. Meyers was opposed by Elmine in the first game and aside from the eighth innings was master of the situation throughout the game. The Stars rapped back with a five run hit and six runs off the junky right-hander. Cole a lefthander pitched two runs off the Stars had plenty of tandem with Cole but in the eighth innings they solved his delivery and scored seven runs to win the game. Brown started for the beads but anyway and the Major Leaguers copied his delivery. Oldham was sent up to believe him and hold the Tigers safe after they had counted two runs off him before he was able to retire the side in the fifth. Moore pitched for Detroit on Wednesday and held the beads to three hits while the visitors slammed Care and Beacon positively.
In Steve's gymnasium they have a great ball club by taking the series from the big juggler. Speciaterial play followed spectacular play in the gymnasium. The taking was great, only one error being made in such situations the two were plenty of hard plays in these games the boys though beautifully.
MONDAY'S VICTORY
On May 10, the Stars defeated Eugene King through some great and dramatic base running by Charleston and Warfield in the seventh inning when they pulled a doubled steel net over Warfield on the scoring and Russell made two hits at the right time, and Charleston helped to score him with a single and some double shots. Warfield hit two doubles and hit two runs for the Stars. Myers pitched a great game and but for a bad batting ground would have scored a shutout. The break came in the fifth inning and three hits followed it and enabled the Tigers to score runs. Star started in the very first inning Russell sampled one for a single to center. He took second while Catshaw threw Warfield out at first. Charleston singled to center and Russell scored when Charleston drew the throw to second base. Charleston was out but he had saved the runners and threw the throw from going to the plate.
Three more runs came for the Stars in the second inning. Blackwell left off with a triple up center. McMahon was hit by a pitched ball. Hewitt will call out on strikes. Ruggs walked filling the out击 strikes. Elkone made a wild pitch and Blackwell scored the runners moving to second and third Blackwell singled to center scoring. McMahon Ruggs Warefield was hit the third strike on vield of the inning and ended the rally.
Moonshade, Moose was going great and the Tigers could do very well with his delivery until the eight pinnings when they soiled four ronons on five hits all of them a bucky bounder. Moose's bighorns glow for an easy touch on left蜂蜜 followed with a trip to Riggs and when the ball took a bad hop a double play was turned into a hit "Cutshaw dropped a single in right and the bases were leaked Rhue sent a fly to 'Howitt for the seven out. Cutshaw having filled to single Woodall scored on Rhue's second Vach doubled to right, scoring Hapny Next came Jones single, to center which scored Cutshaw and Vach Moore ended the rally by sending
Charlston to deep center for his fly win. The game in the 7th inning was warmed up by the Boston when Ehinke was slow in covering first. Warfield stole second. Charlston beat out a hit to Hinesy. Warfield reached third. With the count one and two on Kennard. Charlston and Ehinke on the double steel with Warfield on the great slide. A great slide to beat the ball but Cutsaw failed to throw dropping the ball. The error does not derail from the wonderful play as both runners made their destination in plenty of yards.

With Rigneys at bat, Cole attempted to pick Blackwell off third but the throw was wilt and Blackwell scored and Hewitt reached second on the play. Riggins singled to right center and Hewitt came over. Rigney pitched the inning by forcing Riggins at second Rigney to Cutshaw.
Dave Brown got into trouble in the third and the Tigers scored three runs off his shoots. Woodfall was out, Higgins in Mc Adoon when Cole drew a base on balls. And it proved as Egidie Hensey once said, "It's bad back to walk a pitcher." Haney forced Cole at second. Higgins to Warfield, Cutshaw caught one of Dave Brown's pitches on the end of his bat and the ball soiled onto the roof of the car for home run. Haney scoring in front of the pitcher. Blue followed with a double to left. Vetch met one squarely and singled to right, scoring Blue and putting the Tigers one ahead of our boys. Jones went out on a grounder to Warfield. Frank making a great play.
Then came the fourth, and the Tigers, knocked Dave Brown out of the box and this time again it was the fate base on bighills which started and had reached the Mc Aloo Moo hill was out. Warfield to the Mc Aloo Moo hill walked Woodall singled to left and quick fielding by Joe Hewitt, hold Rignet at second. Cole struck out and with two down things began to look up for the locals but it only looked that way. Hiney doubled to center and Rignet at Woodall scored. Cuthsaw singled to left and Woodall third. This was enough for Browns and Oldham wein in to pitch. Jimmy did not have sufficient time to warm up properly and two singles followed which gave the tigers another pair of runs. Blue singled to left and Woodall each singled to center and Cuthsaw singled. Jones ended the rally with a fly to Hewitt in left.
Kennard's triple and Hewitt's double gave Blackwell and Mc Aloo Adon had failed, knocked a run for the Stars in their half of the fourth and made the Tigers' home run in the fifth and local home run in the fifth. Cole gave through the sticks and drummed with the ball and drummed with the ball.

Games Called 3 P. M. Gates Open Sun., 12 O'clock
Stars cut loose with one of their characteristic late inning rallies and slammed Cole, who up at that, time had been quite effective for seven bats and as many runs. Charleston doubled to left. Woodall attempted to pick Charleston off second and threw wild to center field and the speedy Chandler, who had been flanked by Haney could return the ball. Kenny singled to right. Blackwell lost a hit when his liner went straight to Cutshaw. Mc. Adoo doubled to left and Kennard went to third. Hecs. Sam Bennett made a wise move and inserted himself as a batter in place of Joe Hewitt. It looked like bad base had been the fact that Hewitt had made three hits, times he had previously scored Cole. But Sam evidently knew what he was doing and proved it when he lined to deep right for a triple sending Kennard and Mc Adoo over with the runs which tied the score. The drive would have been an easy home run in to run for man. Dudley was sent in to run for Teach and when Dudley the ball after getting under it, Dudley what proved to be the winning run. Oldham singled to right and Riggins took second. Russell filed to Moore for the second out. Warfield scored to right and Riggins scored and reached third in the hit when Haney threw the ball over. After Kennard had missed two pitches, balls for strikes. Warfield stole home while Cole hold the ball. The play was wide open and Cole was so slow in waking up that Warfield was over the plate before Woodall received throw. Kennard then swing and misjudge this strike on the next pitch. This strike on the ninth great form retiring Jones and Mc Adoo in Rigney on easy plays. The Stars owned their second victory over the Tigers in as many days.

FANS MUST HAVE MORE PATIENCE WITH NEGRO LEAGUE DEVELOPMENT
President Foster Says Lack Of Control Of Parks And Geographical Difficulties Prevent Uniform Schedule Of Games.
WILL BE CORRECTED IN TIME
By Chas. A. Starks
Associated Negro Prés
There are at least ten cities in the country that may boost of being thriving baseball centers; for the clearest past as played by Negroes Chicago, New York, Detroit, Indianapolis, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, St. Louis and Kansas City, are included as members and associates. Kansas City however, ranks formerly as a benevolent baseball town. North Carolina Town. This town is saved from a dangerous lethargy in the matter of some engaging amusement or sport in 1200 by the introduction of the League. At once it was apparent to the observant that here was an institution, not only to provide amusement of the progressive sort, but was to provide a great field for the expression of athletism by Negro athletes upon the lucrative basis of industry and economy. Certainly and right for our people. So we naturally think of league baseball in these parts as a wonderful asset to the people. This is likely to be such. New York is a medium whereby it can express its enthusiasm upon celebrities of the race. Herodian manifested and appreciated within our own ranks has its natural good effect.
"The Team With "The Big Punch."
Fortunately for Kansas City it has a team composed of top players, who always do credit to the game. The team is practically finishing seeding in percentage of games won and lead up to date the D. C. Monarchs team. The team has played 52 league games, with a first percentage of 358. The Monarchs have played 30 more games than the American Giants, the "League Leaders." The American Giants have played 52 games, winning 34 losing 18, with a percentage of 554. Now they say that figures never lie, but these do if you present them as a moral test of playing strength of the team. They have a supposition in "Hating Average," where McNail is at bat 30 times and secures 25 hits, gaining a percentage of 500, while Torrence is at bat only 4 times, gets two hits, but also must be credited with a percentage of 570. So well and good for that. It is worth a whole lot to know that Negro League is improving in quality even as the Monarchs, then are advanced here not from merely a perisan angle, but as a strong type of an aggregation of players possible under the league. As compared with the American Giants, known for "great" inside, playing, Detroit, of the same school, with the power of power, slugging hunkles and with the New York Giants, and with the Orlando orientals as seen in machines, like precision the Monarchs show up and stack up in splendid order.
The Monarchs summed up briefly represent a team that has reached the superlative in batting along with an good fielding and pitching as this league affords—this constitutes The Big Punch.
What's the Matter With the League?
The league is all right if it will continue to progress. We are only three seasons old, yet we have made some rapid strides along several angles which go to make up League baseball's upheaval and severe criticism of the way the League is being conducted. The consensus of opinion seems to be that Mr. Foster, the president of the league is conducting the organization solely for his own interest. This opinion argues that the League Schedule is entirely too flexible in Mr. Foster's hands and manipulated its works have with all other teams. This opinion further points out Foster's "staying at home so much," the greater number of games the Monarchs and the A.B.C.'s play over the American Giants, and corrupt and partial umpleing at Chicago. Instead of the losing team. They are the things that the regarding League management. The fan, after all is the chief consideration when "paying" baseball is in question, and he therefore has a right to interest himself in certain matters pertaining to the League.
On the other hand, hand a recent interview with Mr. Foster at Kansas City reveals the "other" side. We asked for this interview with Mr. Foster in order that we might include both sides to a mottled question. We found that with magnate easy to question answering everything put in ready style.
Question: Mr. Foster, what is the most important thing confronting the League? "Malattence: you see the people don't understand what a biaffair is, and the responsibility involves, and the "Big Leaguer" correctly.
Have you any specific plans to improve the situation? "Yes."
Are they there? "They will be served in this time, but I wish to say now that certain misdeeds/white capital in that colony represent the League, but that colony represents the country will be given an opportunity to virtually own and control matters if they will."
What can we have a more efficient secondary league to deal with? "We can have a more efficient secondary league to deal with because we have an institutional work force and the League will be able to do that."
in the matter of schedule."
Why do the American Giants play at home so much? "Because lushness as the other clubs are at a disjuncture, age unevenness, and their investment must necessarily protect our investment which gives control of our park and consequently an advantage to offset some of the disadvantage of other teams. You might quote me as saying that I have the best interest of the whole League at heart, and it is important that we should be. Others have had an opportunity to become president, but refused the job. For the last two seasons this honor has rather been thrust in me. The heavy responsibilities attached thereto, the lack of facilities and real co-operation renders my poli-cession more harder than personally advantages as many people valyall imagine."
What about publicity? 'The League seems to be too big a thing for the newspaper; they don't seem to grasp the situation properly, with proper cooperation the League and the news papers have wonderful possibilities! There now you have at least some of both sides. The writer merely suggests to the people a continuance of support of the League, for after all it is your league. It means more of National development along racial lines than one can at first imagine, as we already pointed out. To Mr. Moore, the League admits your baseball 'gynia' as demonstrated in the organization and direction of the American Giants, but they hope and believe that your greater gynia will be shown in the solid construction of a NATIONAL NEGRO BASEBALL LEAGUE that will stand the test of time.
French Correspondent's View On Siki And Dempsey
Preston News Service
PARIS, FRANCE, Oct. 4. (By courtesy of private cable to Associerte Negro Press.)—Europe has been conquered by Africa. In that the rising tide of color has literally engulfed the continent of the white race and there is much of tears and glimration in our midst at the present moment. Sikh knotted the h-1 out of Carpenter, Carpenter, the dobairn; Carpenter, the beautiful, Carpenter, the idolatol of the mighty French was made to bite the dust and gravel in frantic zeal; he regaled his feet while the third h-1 was coming off the final ten seconds, gave to the world another new King, Carpenter is dead! Long live King Sikh!
News has just reached Paris that Jack Dempsey has called off his European trip, Paris is just now declining Delpsey a wise bird. The Carpenter engagement was just what the wild man of the Congo needed to put him on edge. Before the other night Dempsey might have had a more than fighting chance with the Songhese. Now, it is the consensus of fighting opinion. If he comes over here he will be obliged to fight the blacks and as sure as wine is wine, he would be in for a good kicking.
This fellow can fight. More than that he is about the wiltest chickened that has yet appeared in Paris fight ring. It is doubtful if Carpenter hit him a finish blow at any time during the fight. While, he is toughness preoccupied, it is argued, he is but tired and after everything else is said about him, everybody that Carpenter hit, the great Dempsey was moved up. "Kevin the great Dempsey was moved up," a brief moment by one of the flush socks of the scientific hitting Frenchman. The foxy Dempsey went down alright. but it was noted, he never took his eyes off his opponent. It now looks as if the fall was part of his simple strategy. It fooled the other fellow, however, and it apparently served the purpose of the African. And don't anybody, get it into their mind that the Sik is any simplemepet. He's the man of sense. Fighting sense, thinking sense, and thrift sense are each part in his mind. If the judges announced the winner without any ado be quickly proclaimed. "Now I am ready to fight Dempsey." He knew who Dempwas. Fresh as he is from the jungle he has absorbed a mighty good chunk of civilization. All the loose talk about his going broke in two nights is given the limit. And all the other stuff about him sitting on Absolute and Glin is a thin layer of white cone who sought to get what of joyful comfort, out of a situation that the fellows on the inside knew was fraught with much danger for the then Champion of Europe.
Siki has more than a fighting chance to whip Dempsey. If this pair should fight there would be about a disparity of something like ten pounds in favor of the white fighter. Wills has the better chance of whipping the black. He has the weight, the science, and the courage to face calmly a fighter of the kind Siki presents. Paris feels that the world's champion is to be found in these three with Wills a more than slight favorite. Time will bring the bacon to a waiting public.
Ski Expected To Fight In
New York Thanksgiving Day
Associated Negro Press
NEW YORK CITY Oct. 4—Baltimore,
like this night, the Negro who
sprang into world fame by
knocking out George Washington
Paris last Sunday will fight in this
city on or off Thanksgiving Day.
Nov. 28.
This announcement was made by
negro leaders in New York City.
By the Associated Negro Press
Battling Siki, the brunette fighter
from Senegal, who is alleged to train
himself, and from a hammer on
the second, he has laid down
France—georges Carpenter—in the
resin, and thereby lifted himself to
fame and probable fortune. He rise-
s as another dark cloud, considerably
bigger than a man's hand, upon
the horizon of our Mr. Dempsey's future.
That makes two clouds which threat-
en him, and makes him light for
a period of ten seconds or more.
First Jr. Mr. Wilks, who, in bulk at least
is much more menacing than the bart-
ling Senegalese. We have long placed
Dempsey either obliterate that cloud
or take a definite place in his shadow.
But so far he has avoided it. And now
comes the smaller, but equally
begins to look like a storm. If Dempsey
want to get soaked he will retire
in doors or put up an umbrella.
But we are becoming a little uneasy about this rising tide of color Sikir follows so closely upon the successes of Mustapha Kemal, the indecent Krypt, the rise of Panchi Vills, flycocking and the imminence of King Pekal's tion. His victory over Georgia is probably being celebrated in the hungle in a manner somewhat similar to the Persian and the Arabian and Indian celebrations of Kemal Pashal's victory. If the league of nations could be called to contest the all might be well. But it will not function in his case, and those who docs in Asia Minor, therefore other means must be sought.
We have wanted to see Wills meet Demopoy. But we are willing to forego that if he will meet Sikir. We could win that we shall bet on New York to win the national baseball championship. There would be no racial uprising after that.
Later we might suggest dimidy that Dempsey meet the winner. That certainly would save him one clash with Man. And if he won, Kemal could ban to theia, the Dardanelea could remain open, the league of nations might survive.
NEW YORK CITY. Oct. 4. -So-called mixed matches in boxing, compulsions by their absence in the past, evidently will come in profusion now. Three battles between white and Negro boxers were scheduled last week. The first of these, which is atso the first field at a boxing club under the State Athletic Commission was conducted at the Bioncer A. C. on East Twenty-fourth Street. On Thursday night the Commonwealth Sporting Club in Harlem conducted a special show featured by two such bouts, each scheduled for twelve rounds.

EFFICIENT HAIRDRESSERS STILL IN DEMAND
PRESTON New, Service.
PITTIBURGH, Pa. Oct. 5.
