An Exponent of Truth and Justice KLAN DENIED CHARTER IN THIS STATE Kansas City Judge Renders Decision After Examining Records And The Objects And Purposes Of The Members. KANSAS CITY, Mo., March 11—The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan is not a benvolent and educational society and should not be granted a charter as such in Missouri. Judge Frank P. Setriy recommended to the Circuit Court here. Judge Sebree was appointed by Judge Charles R Peace last November to examine an application filed by the Ku Klux Klan in the Circuit Court for incorporation. It was further brought out that the Klan's doctrine was un-American and was dramatically opposed to this form of government. It was also said that instead of the Klan being a benvolent and charitable organization, it was, in fact, a breeder of contempt for law and order and its chief business was to foster race and religious hatred, and to set one class of citizens against the other. KU KLUX KLAN IS UNMASKED IN STATE OF TEXAS KU KLUX KLAN IS UNMASKED IN STATE OF TEXAS Ma' Ferguson, Woman Governor Of Lone Star State, Signs Bill Designed To Oust The Hooded Organization From The State. AUSTIN, Texas. March 11.—A bill prohibiting wearing of masks in public was signed today by Gov. Miriam A. Ferguson. The law provides secure penalties for persons entering public buildings, churches or private residences while masked. It was a Democratic party pledge of the last campaign and resulted mainly from flogging parties, said Representative Hirokobu, of Galveston, author of the bill. One section of the law, which bore the emergency, clause and therefore becomes effectively immediately, declares it unlawful "for any secret society or organization or a party of the members thereof, in disguise, to parade upon or along any public road or any street or alley of any city or town in the State." This bill was aimed directly at the Ku Klux Klan. Texas, as no other state in the Union, has suffered from the actual workings of the Klan. The present governor ran on an anti-Ku Klux Klan plank. During her campaign, she said if elected governor, she would use the power of her office to stamp out the Klan in the Lone Star State. When she signed the bill, Mrs. Ferguson signed, with a great sigh of relief and remarked: "If I sign a thousand bills during my term of office, none will give me greater pleasure and it's hardly possible that I will sign one that will do the State more good."

NEW YORK. March 11. Through the benevolence of the well known American philanthropist, John D. Rockefeller, the Hampton-Tuskegee Institutes' $1,500,000 campaign fund was unconditionally given $1,000,000 last week. The gift of Rockefeller leaves the campaign about $1,500,000 short of the goal. The Rockefeller Foundation has come to the aid of American colored institutions of learning before, especially in the case of the Howard University School of Medicine, but this is the largest, single donation that the capitalist has ever given to a colored institution. In expressing his sentiments concerning his gifts to the Hampton-Tuskegee campaign fund, Mr. Rockefeller stated: "Inasmuch as I have been profoundly interested, in these schools since my father took me as a small boy to visit Hampton, when General Armstrong was at its head, because they provide an education which its boys and girls to be useful citizens, whether they go forward to higher and professional education; or go directly into agriculture, business or industry; because they stress the development of character along with the development of the mind and body, and because of my life-long interest in the colored race. I shall count it a privilege to participate in the campaign to the extent of $1,000,000.

C., March 11—A vote of 60 to 8 was given for the adoption of Senator Robinson's bill proposing the abolition of the 50 per cent charge on Pullman air fares. Senator Howell fought the bill because freight rates for the farmers were not given 'reduction'.

Correspondent. In Germany Writes Of Nation's Come- Back. German Major Says Negroes From The United States Won War. (By Lorenz B. Graham of Seattle.) With Bishop Brooks Party Enroute To Monrovia, Liberia. (From The Seattle Enterprise.) Germany. It is not easy to get acquainted with people who wore only a few years ago, enemies at war, especially when those people suffered defeat, however, I do feel that during my fortnight in Germany, I learned something of them. After seeing France, France the victorious, it would hardly seem that Germany had lost the war. In Germany there is occupation by an arrogant enemy, but there has been no devastation of agricultural lands, no villages razed to the ground, no cities shelled by day and bombed by night. Germany's loss aside from men and money has been in commerce and foreign possessions. From those battles, she is fast recuperating. Germany's ships are carrying German cargoes all over the world again. In trade she is not realizing the profits of pre-war days but the market is being steadily improved and "made in Germany" goods are for sale everywhere. These people are thrifty, thrifty as the Japs are thrifty, and more energetic. Realizing the hugeness of the national debt the people are putting their shoulders to the wheel and the engine of state turns, slowly, perhaps but with increasing momentum. Here the eight hour day has been forgotten; the automobile is a toy only of the newly rich. I was in the offices of one of the richest men in Northern Germany. For appearances and richness of appointment, there was nothing in the whole building to compare with the office of a Los Angeles real estate dealer, and when this multi-millionaire left his office for his home. I saw hini board a street car while I hailed a taxi. And of the colonies in Africa. I was told by at least three men high in the affairs of the German government, that Germany would soon have possession of her colonies again. From a man who had retired a major after four years; at the front, I learned something of the effect of America entry into the great conflict. When America went in Germany had the upper hand. The entry of the new ally made Germany the more anxious to bring the thing to a close before we could get men and guns into the field. German troops pressed forward until they were once more in sight of Paris. And then the miracle! Black troops were nothing new; the French Senegal and the British Colonials had long been in, the field. Now from the states had come thousands of Schwarzers (black men) to unload the supply ships. They were not fighters, but they had been called from the docks and hurled into the trenches to stop the German. They were big, strong and clean, and while they had not been taught to fight, they knew nothing of fear and retreat. They stayed and died. The line held Germany hated the black Americans, because they had saved the cause of the Allies when nothing else could. KLAN USES STRATAGEM IN NEW MEXICO SCHEME SANTA FE, N. M. - In a determined effort to establish an official staffer for itself in this state, the Ku Klux Klan has obtained articles of incorporation for its body here under the title of the Klanists of the Ku Klux Klan. The organization is described as a Georgia corporation and application papers were signed by H. W. Krans. Imperial Wizard. Applications of a woman's branch of the Klan for incorporation, submitted some weeks ago, have not been acted upon. This gave the name of the Secretary of State as its state official, without her consent. RAPID STRIDES MADE BY COLORED IN DETROIT DETROIT Mich. March II.—Statistics recently disclosed here, showed that the colored population of Detroit which remained at a standstill for almost forty years, has made rapid strides in the last fourteen years. In 1910 the total colored population of Detroit was 5,000; today it is twelve times that. Prior to 1910 the Negroes of Detroit were employed chiefly as porters and waiters and domestics. Today no less than 500 industries in Detroit are employing colored men. They can be found in every grade of work from the most crude to the most highly skilled. The Ford Motor Company is the largest employer of Negro labor; out of a total of 110,000 employees in the Ford industries in Detroit, approximately 5,000 are Negroes. Dodge Brothers Motor Car Company is the second largest employer of Negro labor; out of 18,000 men, 1400 are colored. Packard Motor Car Company comes third with 700 colored men in their employer.

Williams was released on $200 bond. The woman is said to have been staying at the man's house over a week. M. E. UNIFICATION HOPES JOLTED IN SOUTH CONF ATLANTA, Ga., March 11, Bishop William N. Alnsworth, speaking in the North Georgia Conference of the M. F. Church of the South, expressed recruitment at the rapid spread of the Northern M. F. Church in the south. He elicited instances of the uptake of powerful northern churches. L. southern territory from Missouri to Florida, which he declared was a branch of a ruling set aside in the Louisiana conference in 1845. The presence of Bishop Clay and Bishop Jones in the Northern Conference is believed to have increased the antagonism of the southern church, which has only white bishops.

MIGRATION NORTHWARD SEEN AS SPRING OPENS MIGRATION NORTHWARD SEEN AS SPRING OPENS PRES. COOLIDGE INAUGURATION QUIET AFFAIR Many Leaders Among Colored People Were There. William G. Matthews Of Boston Appears To Be Real Leader Of His Group In National Politics. Special to the St. Louis Argus WASHINGTON D. C., Mar. 3.—The quietest and most studied ushering in of a president since the founding of this country took place here on Wednesday and that quiet determined man from God's part of this country is president of these United States in his own name and by his own right and title. New England's culture was here and reputed itself as became the best blood of the Nation. Politicians of every rank and degree of power are in the capitol, and all of them are waiting for the call to serve their party and the "dear people." The black hosts from every section are on the scene. There was so much of conferences and so much more of party meetings that your correspondent sought out a man high in the councils of the Republican party and asked what of the colored Republicans chiming for place and power in the newly established administration. Your correspondent was told by this man of power that when the organization was properly shaped up, that Mr. William Chance Matthews of Boston would be sent for and what is to be done for the colored men of the nation would be done through and by the advice of Mr. Matthews. There were many other things told your correspondent which bespeaks of much constructive work to be done for the colored citizens of the country. Your correspondent has been consistently at the side of Mr. Matthews in his headquarters at the Whitewater Hotel where the brains and beauty of the Race have journeyed daily to assure this new Negro leader of their loyalty and support and their unfailing confidence in his power and good sense to serve his people well. Mr. Monroe Mason of Boston, the editor of the Bing Helmet, has proven himself a general aid to his children and has made many friends amongst the hosts of visitors. On the list of friends who did not make the journey to Washington were the names of Attleford Holmer Phillips of St. Louis, and Hon. W. T. Franklin of St. Paul, Minn., but I read letters from fifth of them assuring Mr. Matthews of their, support and confidence and we were all glad to hear from them since we could not have their company. A letter to Mr. Matthews from Mrs. Myrtle Foster Cook, Chairman of the Western Division of the Colored Section, written from Kansas City, Ms. said: "The women of the West direct me to congratulate you for your aggressive, wise and straightforward leadership. We stand squirtely back of your splendid programming and we are happy over its respectful reception. We feel sure that your influence with the "coffee administration" will get the Race somewhere and our men and women—the country, over hope and pray or your every success for yourself and for us all." Thus the strong women of the Race feed, and acting upon their own initiative set the game example of cooperation which well may be followed by the men of the Race who expect to reap the reward of their leaders for the party. CALIFORNIANS ESTABLISH COLORED BEACH RESORT LOS ANGELES, Cal., March 74—The Pacific Coast, Beach club, an 60- gravitation of coloré people in Southern Cal., has secured a lease on 1,550 feet of ocean frontage on which it is proposing to establish one of the largest, exclusively colored beach resorts in the country.

Bath houses, club houses, beach cottages, play ground amusement and all equipments for a well furnished beach resort will be provided by the club. WHITE MAN GETS LIFE FOR SLAYING COLORED BOY AT SAVANNAH, GA. SAVANNAIL Ga., March 11—Louis Lightfoot, 18 years old, has been convicted here of shooting and killing Eddie Sharpe, a Negro, and was sentenced to the penitentiary for life. This is the first time in many years that a white man has been convicted of murder for killing a Negro here. A man of honor would not do a mean thing. His self respect abhors it. A mean man is easily seen through—and appreciated. A Square Deal For Every Man PRICE 5 CENTS Reports From Industrial Centers Indicate. Large Numbers Leaving South Daily, Going North And West. Social Agencies Are Helping Newcomers To Adjust Themselves To Their New Environments. (Compiled by the Cancellation Service) WASHINGTON, March 9. Negroes from the southern states have begun their spring, 1925, exodus, heading northward into Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri and points farther west. Welfare workers and employment managers of Philadelphia, Detroit, Cleveland, Columbus, Tralianapolis, Wheeling, Pittsburgh, and typical industrial centers of the country, report an influx of steady southern Negroes who at once become applicants for placement in the factories and mills. It is stated that employment and problems of health and housing have increased in all the northern industrial centers, and that the migration supply indicates that it will exceed the demand in practically every northern industrial city during the coming season. State and Federal authorities, as well as privately-controlled agencies are watching the migration movement, which is purely a voluntary one on the part of the Negroes, and are cooperating with each other in the hope of diminishing to a minimum all problems which may arise because of this spring's migratory movement, which will probably be of large dimensions. At Lansing, Mich. Commissioner Carl Young and his associates of the Department of Labor and Industry of the State of Michigan have approved the plans outlined by C. A. Campbell, Special Industrial Agent, and his advisory committee of forty prominent colored citizens of Michigan, who held their annual meeting on February 19, 1925, and discussed the needs of the workers of their group living and working in Michigan cities. The Advisory Board members were unanimous in that special efforts should be made to locate desirable farms to care for the large number of migrants expected in the spring, in order to receive the extremely congested conditions of the industrial cities of the state. At Saint Paul, Minn. Public-spirited white and colored business men of this city, headed by E. C. Carter, of the local Urban League, and Fred D. McCracken, prominent registrar and former housing expert of the U. S. Department of Labor, have been seeking to bring about the employment of a proportionate number of Negro workers, skilled and unskilled, when the local Ford Motor Works opens its Minnesota plant in the near future. It is estimated that this wing of the great Ford automobile industry will begin work with about 1,000 hands and that within a year the work force may swell to more than ten thousand. With the prospect of an early spring migration, of Negroes from the southern states, a portion of which will doubtless enter the Twin Cities district, local citizens and intersted welfare workers are urging that the Ford Company extend its usual policy of employing Negro hands to the Saint Paul works. At Duluth It is reported that the steel industry in Duluth is beginning to show signs of an expansion. It is expected that some plants which have been inactive during the past year will resume operations this spring, thereby offering employment to many Negro iron and steel workers. This news has had a brightening effect in Duluth, in view of the fact that work has been slack during the past month among the Negroes of the Minnesota industrial district. At Detroit Through the efforts of John C. Dancy, Jr., Secretary of the Detroit Urban League, two young Negro graduates in mechanical engineering, Alvin Lee and J. F. Lee, from the University of Michigan and Purdue University, respectively, have been placed at work on the lines of the Detroit Street Railways. This is regarded as an encouraging piece of progress. Mr. Dancy states that there are prospects for the placement of other Negro to technical graduates in equally important professions with leading companies of Michigan. The Women's Bureau of the U. S. Department of Labor has just released its Bulletin No. 14, which is a study of 16,788 adult women employed in 602 industrial establishments in the States of Ohio. The inclusion of Negro women was small, according to the report, which states: "Of the 10,788 adult women reporting on nativity, 80 per cent were native-born whites, 154 per cent were foreign-born, and 4.6 per cent were native-born Negroes." The Negro women were employed in canvass products, candy-making, women's suits and coats, food products, glass products, metal products, paper products, rubber products, tobacco products, general merchandise Society AND LOCAL NOTES A rare treat is in store for you on March 19, at St. James A.

MUSIC, ART, DRAMA AND LITERATURE By RICHARD JACKSON PRESENT DAY NOVELS, What are the styles and methods of the present day novelist that gives his works such immense popularity with the reading public? While the demand for "Peacock Feathers" and "The Little French Girl" crowd in the rustic masterpieces of Meredith, James, Scott, Elliot, Thacery and Dickens are requested with less and less frequency. The Novel of today is quit different, from those fine examples of exhausted detail, artistic treatment, scholarly wisdom and deed philosophy which claimed their place before the '90's. There is a new novel, more capable of competing for a place in the spare leisure moments of all of us, under the present times and conditions. If one should attempt to analyze novels that are flooding the books stores today he could perhaps turn to no better source of reference than the works of the muchly criticized, but widely read Elimor Glyn. Her books might be classed as the standard bearers of the popular novel of this age. Her early writings really brought to bear a tremendous influence on the tendencies of the nugelist who wrote for what is often termed the "age of jazz." And whether her influence were good or bad, she seems to have found "what the public wants," and the others follow. "Six Days" a love story of the Flanders, written not so long ago was one of the best-sellers of the year. The settings, characters, action, plot and theme of "Six Days" are typical of the modern day novel. Realism and simplicity seem the key note that governs the entire works. The heroine is a perfect picture of a present day young American society woman, while the hero is in every way a thoroughbred Frenchman. The Marne is painted in all the desolation and dreaminess that featured it during the period immediately after the World War. The customs and habits of the people are given with great accuracy. There little to whet the imagination and artistically free one from the cold actualities of life. One sees people moving in ordinary states of affairs, talking ordinary everyday language, but seldom are the hearts or minds of those persons laid open to the reader. Only when in the exuberant emotions of love do the characters expose their soul, and then in a superficial way. There is no deep broad sweeping sentimentality expressed, that gives one a chance to escape from the realities of life, but it rather makes one more conscious of their, every day ordinary existence bringing no new outlooks on life. The motive of "Six Days" like the motives behind most of the late novel is one of robellion or protest against some wrong. This time it is the prides and pomp of social station which is condemned as a standard of measurement of manhood. There is emphasis on revolt and disillusionment, through a playing up of the present day spirit of pleasure madness. However, the protest is presented more or less through an appeal to the passions—the point, of least resistance in human nature—rather than through the creation of intellectual food for thought. This lack of deep study and analysis of the problem with which the story deals and greater concentration on plain description and narration, although it adds to the ease of reading, it detracts greatly from artistic and literary worth of the book. Still, it seems that the more nearly chewed, up and digested the form that the author can hand his works to the reader in the better he likes it. Love is the old and popular theme of "Six Days". To treat love in an artistic and beautiful way in a novel, so that, it may have true literary value an author must necessarily not misrepresent or degrade, it in his treatment. He should be selective. Art deals with the "fundamental and significant things of life". To associate love with inexperienced youth in a novel is directly opposed to this law. In Elmer Glyn's "Six Days" however, forwent love is associated with hot blooded youth in her efforts to reveal deep love she is often supernatural. Love is born suddenly THE PHOENIX GLANDOILS TEMPLE LABORATORY A normal man should be bright of eye, quick of step, cheerful of manner, string, vigorous and masseline; he should be feared by his own sex, attractive to the opposite sex and admired by them for his energy and optimism. Work to him should be a pleasure; he should sleep like a cup when he lies down at night and wake up in the morning feeling fine and it. You do not have to lose the vigor of precious youth before your time, for by properly stimulating to normal action the vital glands of your body, you may regain strength, pick up weight and lose that tired, nervous, exhausted feeling which is not only known to you, but shows in your face and physical appearance. TEMPLE LABORATORIES. from a thrilling and exciting adventure in which the hero comes out victorious and wins the lady of his heart. There is no deep and enlightening significance attached to the love, but it seems rather a fantastical dabble into a literary delicacy with the results of a 'very effective sensual appeal, but nothing more or less. Still, although dealt with in such an unartistic way love in any form seems very spicy touch that tickles the palate of most readers' desire. The result is that it has become an almost overworked device in the bag of tricks of the modern novelist. The plot of the story bears the familiar marks of a 20th century novel. It is filled with tense in dramatic action that moves on to a stiring climax and suddenly crashes to an end that leaves all at peace and happiness with the word. This seems the favorite artifact employed in the present day novel to replace the old exhausted wealth of details and searching analysis that characterizes the older novels. No doubt simplicity gives the reader a great satisfaction in this day of rush and bustle. The skill and smoothness with which the plot runs, however, makes it seem too much a planned to order thing; makes it cold and mechanical and causes it to lose its warm feeling of life. It sees that the tricks of the plot are the chief source of strength for the interest in the story. The artists use of suspense is lacking. An attempt to obtain suspense results chiefly in the arousing of a cheap curiosity. But, still, it works quite effectively. So, it seems that adventure, romance and mystery are basic strength and force of the modern popular seller. If all the things that have been considered as the outstanding per-cularities of the style and methods of Elinor Glyn as exemplified in her novel "Six Days" were taken to together as the tendencies that might be calculated as governing the writings of the novelist of the present generation one could sum them up under five principle heads. They are instinctive of sensual appeal, action, simplicity, realism and protest. Squibbs At 19 Harry F. Liscomb, 435 W. 126th St, messenger at the United States customs building, has published his first book, "The Prince of Washington Square" which Mr. Liscomb states is but the first of a trilogy, was released for sale by the Frederick Stokes publishing house last week. The sequel is already worked out. The plots of 43 stories of some length are fully outlined, Mr. Liscomb says. The young author, made his debut in fiction several years ago when his short story won first prize in a fiction contest conducted by a local publication. A letter from Robert W. Chambers encouraged him to continue writing and commended his ability. A magazine editor, it was stalked, asked Liscomb for short stories, while it has been asserted that when the young writer was about 15 the Fox Film corporation sought to train him as a scenario writer and was prevented only by his mother's objection that the boy was too young. Mr. Liscomb was born in Harlem, Aug. 16, 1906. His father, Robert Liscomb, is a driver in the street cleaning department.

What is likely to prove a pecuniary ranking event took place at Howard University last week, when a chapter of the Mu Delta Ph. Fraternity, an honorary society composed of men pursuing pre-medical courses, was established at Howard by one of its founders, H. L. Ellmann, a student of Washington U. of this city. The fraternity was organized here three years ago. Twelve candidates were initiated into the organization (Beta Chapter). Mr. Ellmann, in discussing the matter before the student-body, stated that the fraternity aims to band together, arm in arm, intellectually grant regardless of race, religion or station, in life, to bring about unsusidable service to mankind. $10,000 APPROPRIATED FOR D. C. BEACH REMOVAL Washington, D. C., Mar. 11—Ten thousand dollars were appropriated for the Senate just prior to its adjournment last Wednesday for the removal of the present white bathing beach, and the partly completed colored bathing beach, from the Tidal Basin. The attempt to prevent the cooled citizens from having a bathing beach in the Tidal Basin resulted in the measure killing the use of the site for a bathing beach by either whites or Negroes. DON'T GROW OLD BEFORE YOUR TIME Wonderful Scientific Discovery Assists Nature in making Men and Women 10 to 20 years Younger. YOUTHFUL VIGOR, HEALTH STRENGTH AND VITALITY Scientific authorities now claim that the cause of disease and premature old age is often due to inactive and undernourished glands. Dr. Sergi Wornoff of France says: "A man is worth only as much as his glands." Dr. Arnold LeLand says in his book, "Old Age Deferred," in speaking of the glands, "We must insist upon the reinforcement of their functions if changed by age or disease by means of extracts obtained from the similar organs of healthy young animals." Many men who have allowed themselves to become prematurely old, weak and run-down, both physically and mentally, are taking scientific glaucomal treatment to help regain youthful vitality, strength and health—Olandolinet, which is a highly concentrated, laboratory test d gland compound in simple, compact tuber form, combining vital glands of healthy young animals with others *oblucinous* ingredients. "What science has done for others it should do for you. Make this 15-day test: Take one Glandoline tablet three times a day for 15 days, then see for yourself if you don't feel stronger and better in every way. Wonders have been worked in the rejuvenation of youth and vigor by glabular treatment in one of California's State Institutions. This "Scientific Magic" has been performed by the head physician and surgeon, who reports success in 90% of 1000 cases treated. THE BIGGEST TREAT!

WHITNEY & TUTT'S "Smarter Set" Company "HYDE and SEEK PAGE FOUR BLUES SINGER AND WHIRLWIND DANCERS ARE HEADLINERS AT BOOKER WASHINGTON THEATRE Sippie Wallace, an Okeh record blues singer, is the headline feature at the Booker Washington Theatre this week. She makes her appearance from a giant phonograph, where she sang "Sharty Joy Blue" in initiation of a record. On the stage, she sings "Up the Country", and "Trouble Everywhere". Hersal Thomas accompanies her on the piano, and also contributes an instrumental number "The Perils." Brown and Margarita, whirlwind caneers, have the honor of closing the show. This is undeniably the best of its kind ever seen on this stage. They open with a whirl of acrobatic movements. Margarita then sings, Yes, Yes, In Your Eyes, and does a batter and kicking dance. The main member follows with an exceptional display of kick show trick dancing. The team appears in "My Man" an underworld song with Apache dancing. It is a great stunt and goes over screeching, because of the versatile talent of the performers. Air acrobatics "dazzle Fox Trot" closes their art and seals their brand, "The Whirlwinds." Hamilton and Hamilton open the show with a mixture of comedy queries and answers, with singing and dancing. Pill and Charlee are second on the bill.

THURSTON, THE MAGICIAN, AT AMERICAN NEXT WEEK Thurston, the famous Magician, will come to the American Theatre for his 18th annual engagement, beginning this Sunday matinee, March 15. The man, whose poster pictures appear with two little hips of Sagittarius perched upon his shoulders, makes regular yearly visits to this city, and his name is a household word. The facination that mystery and magic exert for the average human, young or old, finds Thurston a striking illustration for his magic tricks and height of hand performances continues to dazzle theatre patrons more so now than heretofore. One never tires of Thurston's mysteries. His patrons, edge drawn into the circle of his art, stick to him so that the little boys and girls who were "Thurstonified" some years ago have remained so, even after reaching the age of second responsibility. The famous conifer is a rare attraction to the small boy and girl, who often crowd out of their good seats by the just as eager audience of gregarious and older folks.

Desmond in A 5 Reel Western Drama "The Golden Red" will be presented on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. The story is one of the rise and fall of two families—that of a modern go-getron American boy, a candy maker who rises from the arm-basket sales stage to one of the town's wealthiest merchants, owner of a big chain of stores. The other of two girls, daughters of aristocratic parents, who hold family an acceptable substitute for money and work. The older of the two is a natural born flirt, self-centered and always out for a good time. THEATRES-CONTINUED Her sister is her direct opposite. Maurice Masterlink's "Monna Vann" will be the feature on Wednesday. "Two Shall Be Born" will be presented on Thursday and Friday. A double feature program on next Saturday, March 21, will have Hoot Gibson in "Hit and Run," and Buddy Roosevelt in "Biff Bang Buddy." THE OLYMPIA Gloria Swanson is starred in "images of pages at the Olympia Dome" on Saturday. "Warrens of Virginia" will be the feature on Sunday and Monday. Some of the most realistic war scenes ever filmed appear in this picture, a William Fox production which was made under the direction of Elmer Clifton. The film version is made from the well known Belasco play and deals with the closing days of the Civil War. All the war scenes were made at Camp Travis, San Antonio, Texas, the largest military reservation in the United States. Only regular army officers and men were used. "The Price She, Paid," and Tom Mitz in "Deadwood Coach" will be the double feature for Tuesday and Wednesday. "The Golden Bed" will be presented on Thursday and Friday. THE CASINO Bob Custer in "The Range Terror" will be the Casino Theatre feature this Saturday. Fred Thomson and his horse, "Silver King," will be seen in "That Devil Quemado," on Sunday and Monday. The story's central figure is a "darring and mysterious young man of wealth and daring who sweeps down on a little border town to right wrogs and swings off with beautiful girls on the saddle in front of him. Eventually he kidnaps Joanna Thatcher, daughter of a very rich castermer who is sojourneying on his ranch. From this point on the complications are many; but it would be unfair to the enjoyment of those who will see the picture todivide more of the plot. "Girls Men Forget" will be shown on Tuesday; "The Cloud, Jidler," on Wednesday; "Listen Lester" on Thursday. THE LINCOLN Pola Negri will be featured in "Forbidden Paradise" at the Lincoln Theatre this Saturday. Tom Mix and Tony will be seen in "Teech" on Sunday. In this, his latest vehicle, he appears as Dave Beering, a happy-joycky wondering prospector, a lover of his horse Toney, and later a dog Duke, that he finds sorely wounded. From this point the story moves with intensified action, with many realistic scenes, one vivid feature being a real forest fire. It is an ideal vehicle for Mix. "Daughters of Pleasure" on Monday; "Neglected Women" Tuesday; and "The Tornado" on Thursday, are all big features. THE ROOSEVELT Tom Mix and Tony will be seen at the Roosevelt Theatre this Saturday in "The Deadwood Coach." On Sunday and Monday Lon Chaney and Norma Sheaver will be featured in "He Who Gets Shapped." Leatrice Joy in "Changing Husband" on Tuesday; "Dante's Inferno" on Wednesday; amateur Vandelle and "Wanders of Westland" on Thursday, with a big double bill on Friday, will finish the week's program.

The appeal takes cognizance of the fact that, of 10,000,000 Negro Americans, are Catholic, and states that the condition is not due to indifference on part of the Negro. It is stated that wherever Catholices have opened schools in the South for Negroes they are taxed to capacity and hundreds are turned away for lack of means.

Robinson, after a lingering illness accompanied by untold suffering passed away Friday morning, March 6, 1925 at Hospital No. 92, Jefferson Barracks, Mo. After comrades and friends of the deceased learned of the serious nature of this physical condition every available means was exhausted, in the caffort, and hope of securing relief. Hon. J. E. Mitchell, of the St. Louis Argus, rendered valuable assistance, in bringing the attention of his condition and treatment received, to officials at Washington, D. C. McRae Jones, Vice Com. of Calvin Hyde Post, No. 194, American Legion, through telegraphic communication with an official in Washington, D. C. was able to get speedy results as to Comrade Robinson receiving further Hospital care at Hospital No. 32. The funeral service was conducted at St. Elizabeth's church by Father Lyman, whose remarks were timely, interesting and instructive, especially so, to the members of Calvin Hyde Post, and its Ladies Auxiliary. By the able and energetic efforts of Comrade Jack Mitchell, Calvin Hyde Post Band was assembled, and following the Post colors, and Firing Squad, led the funeral cortege to the church. Comrade Robinson was buried in Washington Park cemetery, Tues. March 19, 1925. During Comrade Robinson's activity as a member of the Post Band, he donated a funeral dige to the band and according to a statement he made, which many of us took exception to, at the time, nevertheless it came to pass, just as he predicted that he would be the first member of the Post that needed to have it played. Beautiful floral designs were sent by the Post, the Ladies' Auxiliary, fellow employees of the Post office and other friends and relatives. GET BONUS BLANKS Through the kindness of Honorable L. E. Dyer, the St. Louis Argus will distribute blanks to all former service men of the World War, who desires to make claims for bonus under the recent act of Congress.

Wilberforce Student Body Raises $2,146 Founders' Day Wilberforce Student Body Raises $2,146 Founders' Day Introduction New York Wilberforce, O. Mar. 11.—The biggest event in the history of Wilberforce University, the oldest and largest institution for the education of colored youths and managed exclusively by men and women of the race, was held Tuesday, February 24th, in celebrating "Founders' Day" in honor of its founder, Bishop Daniel A. Payne, who built wiser than he knew when he purchased in 1836 from the Methodist Episcopal Church a small tract of land with a few buildings used for the training of children of leaves who moved from the South land. In the early part of February, President Gilbert H. Jones, appointed a committee to make arrangements, consulting of Miss Tressie Clarke, chairman Mrs. Anna M. Terry, secretary treasurer, Super R. C. Bundy, Miss Lucinda Cook, Professors Geo. P. David Huey H. Greene, R. A. Lane, A. H. Maloney, Norwood Shields, Charles S. Smith, Rev H. H. Summers, and Dean B. L. Watts. For the purpose of creating enthusiasm among the students and to take funds the student body was divided into two groups. The Brown and the Gold representing the colors of the school, led by Miss Tressie Clarke, Prof. Smith, Smith, Norwood Shields and Rev. Summers, and the Tawawas led by Mrs. Anna, M. Terry and other teachers identified with the college department. A splendid program and musical comedy was given Monday night by Prof. George L. Simpson, instructor in Theory of Voice Culture assisted by 150 students. The musical comedy was entitled "The Beile of Barcelona. Bishop R. C Ransom delivered an address Tuesday afternoon. Tues evening a tableau entitled "From Dark to Dawn" was given under the direction of Mrs. Anna H. O. Williamson. Many national Negro anthems were sung. Fellowing the excerpts President Jones called for the financial report at which time songs and college yells by the students belonging to the two groups created an interesting spectacle of rivalry. The "Gold and Green" won the honors, reporting $1,446; the "Tawawas" raised $709.

Lawton boulevard, was arrested last week and 350 half pints of "Jump-steady" were discovered in the wall of a closet in his store. Detective Ira Cooper, who made the arrest, explained that reports of whiskey sales to our people of the neighborhood prompted him to send one of his men to Meek's store. The detective feigned drunkenness and bought a half pint of whiskey for 35 cents. JAMES HOOD, 0, of 2020 Papa street, must serve five years in the penitentiary for the $40 and basket of groceries which he was charged with stealing from Michael Fisher of 3118a Chouteau avenue, on the night of January 3, according to the sealed verdict opened this week in Circuit Judge Itiner's court. WHEELER CARTER, 30, who formerly lived at 4206 Finney avenue, faces seven years in the Penitentiary as the result of a verdict returned by a jury in Circuit Judge Frey's court Monday afternoon. The sentence was the maximum for the offense of pleading pockets, with which he was charged. Carter, who has served a life year sentence in the Penitentiary for robbery, was found guilty by the jury of robbling Arthur Robinson, 4242 Folsom avenue, of a pocketbook containing $45 on a Manchester street car on October 25, 1924. Robinson missed his purse a minute later and gave chase to Carter, leaving the street car at Vandewater avenue. After a chase of several blocks Robinson and Patrolman Joseph Tiernan of the Deerie Street District, captured Carter. He was identified at his trial by several witnesses of the street car at the time of the robbery as the man who had taken the money. JOSHUA TAYLOR, 46 year old, a Negro, of 916 North Twenty-third street, died at City Hospital early Wednesday from stab wounds suffered in a fight with George Johnson, 46, proprietor of a roaming house at the Twenty-third street address, March S. Johnson told policemen his stepmother, Hattie Young, had been locked in a room by Taylor and another person, and her screams attracted him to the room. He broke the lock to rescue her, he said, and was attacked by Taylor, whereupon he drew a knife and stabbed Taylor. ROBERT SMITH, 24, of 916 North Compton avenue, was arrested at 711 North Compton avenue last Saturday by Detectives Paul Gross and Chase E. Johnson. Smith had concealed in his waistband a 38-caller revolver. A warrant was issued against him. THEREASE BROWN, 20, of 506 South Ewing avenue was arrested by Detectives Paul Gross and Chas. E Johnson last Friday on a charge or shooting her husband, Russell, in the abdomen last Thursday, from which he died at the City Hospital later. The shooting was the result of a domestic quarrel. Mrs. Brown was exonerated at the coroner's inquest on a plan of self-defense MAUD FIELDS, 18 years old, of 2005 Lawton boulevard, was stabbed death in a rear hallway of that number at 5 p. m. Tuesday. Police are seeking Jake Cherry, who lived on Tine boulevard, in connection with the murder. William Hinch, proprietor of the roaming house at the Lawton boulevard address, told police Cherry had come there intoxicated and had been put out. The Fields girl, fearing further trouble, tried to persuade Cherry to leave. Cherry is said to have drawn a knife and stabbed her. A warrant charging murder in the first degree was issued yesterday against Oksie Jefferson, 25 2717 Franklin avenue, in connection with the murder of Reuben Pass, 117 North Jefferson avenue, on January 1st in his mercantile store. The arrest of Jefferson was brought about by Pass widow who pointed him out to a policeman on the street. Mrs. Pass had failed to identify forty-some whom the police rounded up.

Bradley of Detroit Mich. deliver a very timely message to women. The Call of This Hour to a Woman of This Age. Always interesting Dr. Bradley was seepingly, at his best on this occasion, and even when he would have concluded his address the audience insisted upon his speaking fifteen minutes longer. Instead of treating our women as inferior, we must learn to treat them as equals and helpmates if we are to get anywhere in this turbulent age. He told his hearers that the greatest call of the hour to the woman of this age is for them to produce a leader who will be a moral authority, and in very clear and concise terms, he explained just what he meant by the term. It was his contention that unless a real leader comes from somewhere to save the girls, especially of this generation, that the whole is destined to destruction. Throughout the course of his address Dr. Bradley kept his hearers entertained by interpersing witty sayings in his discourse. As a pre- THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, MARCH 13, 1925 Imminary to his message to the women, he made a plea for the whole-hearted support of business/enterprises conducted by the members of the race, saying that the economic well-being of the race is just as important as the spiritual. Aside from the wonderful address by Dr. Bradley, the Industrial Girls Club, under the direction of Mrs. L. Briscoe and Miss Hattie O'Neal, conducted the song service and the Pullman Shop Quartette rendered several "spirituals." The St. Louis Young Women's Glee Club also gave several splendid musical numbers under the direction of Miss Grazia Corneal. Mr. J. W. Hays presided, and Rev. H. W. Evans and Rev O. C. Maxwell assisted in devotions. At the close of the address, Miss Hattie O'Neal presented Dr. Bradby a basket of beautiful flowers in behalf of the Young Business Women's Club of Y. W. C. A. These young ladies also acted as ushers for the occasion and proved themselves very efficient business women by the orderly way one was seated. By a unanimous vote, Dr. Bradby's visit is to be made an annual affair. MR. JERRY CHENEY JOHN M. BROWN Only a few can boast of a record such as has been attained by Mr. Jerry Cheney, who has been in the endploy of Fred Harvey of the Prisco Lines for twenty years. After five years of service, Mr. Cheney was put in charge of the observation cafe, between St. Louis and Memphis. Five years more brought to him a Fred Harvey gold service badge and a few months ago in appreciation of ten additional years of loyal service, Fred Harvey presented to him, a beautiful gold Howard watch. This completes twenty years of courteous conscientious service, during which time there was never a complaint, because of poor service, inattention or discourtesy. He is stil on the job, ever anxious to please his many patrons. Mr. and Mrs. Cheney, who own the beautiful residence at 4210 West Cote Brilliante avenue, are well thought of in the community. Mrs Cheney has long been a much appreciated leader of society and both are members of Berea Presbyterian church. Y. M. C. A.

One of the problems of most social agencies is that of accommodating them serves to all types of people with which they have to deal. This has been particularly true of the Urban League as a public servant. A few years ago the Urban League was generalized used by Negroes in St. Louis, but with the influx of thousands of Negroes from the south during the past three years, the League has served the migrant group almost exclusively. This condition grew out of the fact that being strangers in St. Louis, these recent arrivals needed the services of such an organization to a greater extent than did those Negroes who had lived here for Current Events Hello, Mabel. Hello, Auntie, I am so glad you rang. Why are you so pleased, Mabel? Because, I was just planning to ring and ask you to come over and help me plan my Easter outfit. resurrection is the believers' hope! We have churches of every denomination observing this season. Hray commemorates the conquering of the last enemy, death, by Him who was "man of sorrows and acquainted with grief." It seems to me, that in view Why, Mabel, I though you had reached the stage where you ceasel thinking of such trifles as an Easter outfit. Trifles. Why, Auntie, doesn't everyone think of an Easter outfit, as Easter approaches? No. Mabel, everybody doesn't, because some people think of the reason for observing Easter. What is the reason, Auntie? I hear more talk of new dresses, etc. than of anything else. Well, Mabel, that is due to the fact that your associates are the giddy sort, who think only of a new dress at all times. What else is there to think of, Auntie? Why, Mabel, I am surprised to have you ask such a question. Do you not know that Easter commemorates the resurrection of Christ, and that the a longer period of time. The Urban League was indeed the connecting link between the employer and the math sought for labor. As a result the Urban League was forced to turn most of its attention to the newcomers and consequently to the types of work that they, in most cases, were able to do. Then it was that those accustomed to living conditions in our city found that they had little need for the Urban League because there was work for everybody in everybody's line. With the coming of depression in the fall of 1923, the matter of placing reliable help became an acute problem with us. Because most of the newcomers who could answer the requirements of the very cunning employer had found work already and left a large number of strugglers provided for as long as common labor was abundant, we experienced little difficulty in placing the poorly equipped migrant, but it was soon discovered that with the decrease of common labor, whites of the same limited ability were given the preference, thus forcing the Negro common laborer to other methods of living. It has been noted particularly that Negroes from southern cities were well adapted to building trades, foundry and factory work and domestic service, but the less fortunate are those who lived in rural districts where the methods of living, lighting and cleaning were different from the modern equipments used in larger cities. So easy, has been the wedding out process, and so keen has been the struggle among the people least fitted, that our supply of help is rapidly reducing itself to the unemployable and impossible types. For some reason or other our location at WEL Market street seemed to offer difficulties to some people who were limited to put their services on the market through our agency. This was an important factor in our decision to move to 615 N. Jefferson, where our present quarters are more desirable from the viewpoint of location, sanitation and general working conditions. It is hoped that a large number of people who have, from time to time called the Urian League by telephone asking for work, will no longer restrain themselves from coming in to see us. Perhaps we would do well to explain that as far as possible, we recommend help we send to the employers and therefore we are obliged to require all applicants to come for a personal interview. This adds us considerably in giving satisfaction to both employer and employee, thereby keeping our work up to the stand and meriting the respect and confidence of both employers and workers. Monthly Meeting Of The St. Louis Undertakers' Ass'n The St. Louis Undertakers Association held its February meeting at the parlor of the Toney Undertaking Company, Thursday evening, 19th inst., which meeting was a wind up of the year's work. Many questions touching the profession, and which should prove of interest to the public, while making for a higher standard of efficiency in the service of the undertaker to the public, were discussed, and plans formed for putting them into immediate operation. Another important matter which proved the subject of a heated discussion was the unethical undertaker or the body-snatcher parading under the caption of undertaker, whose only consideration in the profession is the dollar, without regard to sympathy for or interest in the welfare of the benefited. The St. Louis Undertakers Association wants the public to know that it does not in any way condone such tactics in the profession, and as readily as it finds among its number a member guilty of such practice, he no longer continues a member of the association, and that it is using every legitimate means to bring such practices to the attention of the public with a view to it discrediting the unprofessional undertaker. Receively, at stated meetings of the association, two of its members were expelled for these practices and the association means to keep up its fight against these practices until it rids the public of these professional parasites. Below is a list of the members of the St. Louis Undertakers Association who have pleaded themselves to resurrection is the believers' hope. We have churches of every denomination observing this season. Our community memorizes the conquest of the last enemy, death, by Him who was "a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief." It seems to me, that in view of the fact that His suffering and death upon the cross was for all, and not any particular denomination, that it would be fine thing if the members of all churches, and especially those of our group, could be more at this time of Him, "who drove the money hungers out of the temple," and whose parting words to His disciples were: "My peace I leave with you," and "love ye one another," and less of other things. The words, "I am the resurrection and the Life," were spoken to comfort Mary and Martha in their bereavement and those words have comforted scores of Christians since. Altho you are young, Mabel, you are not too young to begin to think less of dress, at this season and more of the Saviour's reason for having suffered upon the cross. Goodbye, Mabel. Goodbye, Annie. uphold the standard of the profession: Members of the Association Russell Undertaking Co., 2732 Pine St. Harrison-McKolin, 2906 Lawton Ave. Gus Scott, 3015 Lawton Ave. R. M. C.

OWENS All of Festus was in an uproar. What had become of Sophia, No one knew. Of course Rich and old Van were more interested in her whereabouts than any one else. "Well, old man," said Rich. "I suppose you are not a bit sorry your slave is gone, are you? It will save you many cracks of the whip and you can hire some men to do your outdoor work and she young lady up the road will cook and clean for you." This he said with a reproachful meaning, "Remember," he added "flowers that die in winter, oftimes bloom in spring. Be sure you are not the kind to be perplexedly dead." With this he put his hand to hide his teeth which were showing between his parted thus. "You dog. Think ye that I shall pay a man to do my yard work? That I will give to a woman, but the light house work to a man. The slave! (referring to Sophia). Should I find her I shall so mark her back with the swip that from home she will depart no more." "O. Rich," called a cheerful lad from behind. "Here is a letter for you post marked St. Louis. It must be from a girl because it is highly perfumed." A teasing smile was on his lips as he spoke. With trembling hands Rich opened the letter and noted the contents carefully. It read: Dear Richard: Girl that I left home but sorry to be away from you. I am living here in luxury with a lady of sympathy and love. Though I am far away I shall ever remember thee. Tell did not worry as I am safe and my back minits many a scar. Love to your mother." Sophia. It was Richard's desire to answer the epistle just received, but it was impossible as the letter nor the envelope bore an address. Returning to his home with the load of sorrow less heavy, he went to his mother and read her the letter aloud. When he had finished he said, "Mother, I must go, but I shall return. Have faith and I shall come back alive and with my companion." "Faith, my bag," is the key to your success, but if you do not find the darting, immediately write and let me know where you are." Kissing her on the cheek and wiping a tear from her eye, he put a few dollars in his pocket and left his mother alone. He often stopped his quickened step to thorn back, out, faith that he would and Sophia red him on. He reached "Old Smoky" (St. Louis) about 4:35 p. m. and but up for the night at Dumblar Hotel.

It is something of a shock to Americans to learn that it is the Japanese. In the United States 39,000,000 people live in homes lighted by electricity and in Japan only 23,000,000; but in pro- portion to population, the Japanese are ahead of us. There are 50 per- cent of them using electricity and only 57 per cent of Americans. On the twenty-third day of May 1851, President Garfield appointed the late ex-Nenator B. K.

There was no attempt made at concealment of features or faces." When a condition of this kind can exist right here in America with all its boasted righteousness, in what some are pleased to call a civilized community, then we say, it is On March the 4th, Calvin Coolidge took the oath as President of the United States. In less time than it takes to tell it, he was in the active discharge of his duties; and while its true that he succeeded himself in this high and exalted office, its also true that he is just beginning his first, term as the choice of the people for the presidency of the United States. In taking this oath, placing his hand upon the Bible, the sacred book divine, he called God as a witness that he would abide by, and enforce the Constitution of the United States. He promised to enforce the Constitution not only in letter, but in spirit as well; not just a part of the fundamental laws of the land ut the whole. We are thinking of that part of the Constitution found in the lifesewhenth Amendment which reads: "THE RIGHTS OF CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES TO VOTE SHALL NOT BE ENUMERED OR ABRIDGED BY THE UNITED STATES, OR ANY STATE, ON ACCOUNT OF RACE OR COLOR OR PREVIOUS THE ST.

As a lawyer, he doubt the above quotations are quite familiar to the President. He already knows that those sections are being violated daily; he knows just how many Negro voters are disfranchised in the South solely because of their color. He knows that many States are daily enforcing laws, which ABRIDGE THE PRIVILEGES AND IMMUNITIES of the colored citizens. He undoubtedly knows that such practices are an violation of the Constitution of the United States. Being armed with these facts, we naturally wonder what Pres. Coolidge will do to bring about a change in these conditions, thus fulfilling his oath of office, or whether he will be satisfied to merely move along the heaten paths of his predecessors being fearful of setting a new precedent. We are aware of the fact that it takes courage and, not merely a little, to undertake to enforce the Constitution under the circumstances. But what about his oath of office? If his predecessors failed to keep sacred their oaths that does not excuse him. Every tub must stand on its own bottom. If the Constitution provides these things, there is no legal justification for not carrying out its provisions. We cannot, therefore, but look upon the oath of President Coolidge with a deal of speculation notwithstanding his reputed courage.

NEW YORK, March 9—The Detroit Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. For some time inactive, has now been completely reorganized, reports Williams Pickens. Field Secretary of the Association, who went to Detroit for this purpose, a full corps of new officers has been chosen. The reorganization branch has elected as its new President, the Rev. Robert L. Bradby, pastor of the largest Baptist church in Detroit, numbering over 3,000 souls. Dr. Bradby on coming to Detroit some 15 years ago, found about 200 members. He has built new churches twice during that time, the churches each time being burned. All Detroit was astonished at Dr. Bradby's raising from his people within one year $80,000, an unprecedented amount for any colored congregation within that time. He has been in the forefront of all public movements among Negroes in Detroit, and was largely in strumental in securing the private hospital which colored people operate in that city. He is a member of the Boards of the Phyllis Wheatley Home for Aged People, the Dumbar Hospital, the Autone Street Brasen Hospital, the Autone Street Brasen S. M. C. A. and the Urban League.

From the centers of Negro political activity in all sections of the country the legions of Negro voters were represented at the most impressive inaugural ceremony this country has ever witnessed by the leaders, past and present, who have fought increasingly and valiantly for the Negro political recognition. It seemed that everybody was here, all phases of Negro political thought were a part of the vast human composite that formed Colored America's Portion of the inaugural picture. Whether the younger or the older element is to lead in the future could not have been ascertained by a once-over of the group which listened to "Silent Calls" earliest message. Besides your humble representatives of the Associated Negro Press, there were present these leaders in Negro political life who have made their name in household words among the colored electorate of the country: Charles Pickett, confidential man to the late Senator Medill McCormick; Charles Hall, of the Bureau of Census; Perry Howard, the attorney-general's office; Carl Phillips, Commissioner of Conciliation; Henry Lincoln Johnson, Georgian National Committeeman; Arthur Free, ecorder of Deeds; W. Country to economy. Matthews, organizer of the Colored voters during the recent National campaign; James A. Cobb and W. L. Houston, prominent in legal and fraternal circles in this city; Mortimer Harris, leading realtor of this city; Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, wife of our first judge; Mrs. Nannie Burroughs, President of the National Training School; and a host of others whose names are easily recognized by the work which they have done. The uncertain weather failed to dampen in any way the ardor of the citizens who came in train loads to Witness the President and Vice-President take their oath of office and to hear their pronouncements upon the present conditions and immediate future of the nation. The sun hesitated to make its morning appearance, the air was cool, but not too cool, despite the early morning signs of probable inclementy, however, the crowds began to fill in on Pennsylvania Avenue long before the scheduled time for the ceremony. Washington's spick and span police, white-gloved and alert, were on hand to align the masses in a manner that would provide against any interruption or embarrassment in the exercises. The parade was larger than any other ever held and more decorus. THE TOWER By ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS LOOKING ON AND LISTENING IN By Tower Man National Negro Health Week, April Sth.

None was more conspicuous than two lines representing sixty-six troopers from the Ninth Cavalry. They were greeted with cheers as they rode along. Colored America was also represented in the President's immediate escort. The Negro was not particularly mentioned in the President's inaugural address. Under ordinary circumstances it would not be expected that he would be. However, the nation's capital, presents some curious anomalies. It is the site of the head of the government of which we are in part. It is protected and maintained by all Americans, presumably; for all Americans, but, one finds on a visit here that such an idea is presumption. Washington looms as one of the most prejudiced and discriminatory cities of America. It is not for Colored Americans. Segregation, and Jim Crowism in all forms are rampant. In the legislative halls, and department offices the head of southern prejudice rears its head, snaps an and poisons the colored citizen who feels his true position in the American nation. But, although not directed especially to Colored America, President Coolidge's address was for them—It was a worth while peachment on practical economy, governmental and private. It was a signal lesson to Negroes from the head of a government, even though they are not recognized as they should be. They find themselves in the position of those who can take the virtuous crumbs in the Chief executive's message and find in them sustenance for their own well-being and progress. The President's message might have been delivered to any nation or group or race for it was full of the stuff that group and individuals have used to make their onward march. Sentiment has been unanimous among Negro leaders in endorsing what Mr. Coolidge had to say, and in pledging their utmost endeavors to see that the Coolidge program of Economy is strictly adhered to; economy of governmental expenses economy of the home; economy of social abuses, such as lynching, segregation. Jim Crowism, etc. Vice President Dawes was received with general enthusiasm and a agreement because it strikes a death blow at the rules which were invoked to kill the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. It was Rule 22 which was seized upon by southern senators to bring the measure against lynching to an ultimately end. Colored leaders did believe however, that Mr. Dawes' treatment of the senatorial body was anything but courteous. skillfully lift the soft clods from about the tender plants?

Colored America will have a definite part on the program, and will refresh memory of the present generation on the helpful part our forbears took is those mighty days of the "Republic's birth." We must tell the story so that those who run may read. The newspapers will greatly assist in this educational program. King D. Ganaway, of Chicago Photographic Artist Extraordinary Those who have read the Margh number of the American magazine The St. Louis Argus have had a pleasing opportunity to get the story of a remarkable young man of Chicago, King Ds Ganaway, photographic artist extraordinary, Mr. Ganaway, a butler for over eighteen years, won the first prize in the Wannaker National Photographic contest. His picture was "The Spirit of Transportation." You will be thrilled by looking at this picture and others in the magazine. Are you making yours? Heeble-Jeebles, Chicago, that very unusual Chicago magazine, has arranged with Mr. Ganaway to 'reproduce many of his photographic masterpieces. Reflexes (Reflects Us) is the name of the new monthly magazine published in Chicago, the first issue coming from the press this month. The magazine is a fine new gesture to meet the public wishes in printed and illustrated world. Somehow, however, everything with an "X" these days reminds us of the Klux, except 'Uncle Sam's money. Senator Heflin, of Alabama, the most talkative demagog, and the most conspicuous trouble maker in the Senate, a poser, seeking alway to "destruct" rather than "construct" risis in his seat to exclaim that the South is going to boycott goods from the Northwest because the N. W. has been making a fight against cottonseed oil. It is so bad that the N. W. or some other section cannot boycott Heflin. Attucks Republican Club, of Cleveland Ohio Now comes Sampel L. Woods of Cleveland, Ohio, in a letter to the Cleveland Herald, stating that he brought to life the idea for the establishment of the now famous Attucks Republican club of that city. The organization is almost 19 years old, and has been the backbone of political effort promoting community advancement, and the political fortunes of Councilman Thomas W. Fleming, now president. Mr. Wood's account of the first meeting, which was attended by Tower Man, is interesting and according to the record. The Attucks club demonstrates that there can be continued organization in a political way. LABOR NOTES Labor and business conditions in the north are simply shot to pieces. No one seems to know just what is the smaller that the promised prosperity hasn't shown some signs of coming. Of course, no one expected a big jump from the depression of last year into immediate boom times, but from the soothsayings of bankers, politicians and publicists, it was expected that things would show some signs of opening. The steel business is doing nicely, but thousands of men stand at their gates to go to work. Nor is this condition localized. Firms write us from Pittsburgh, Youngstown, Detroit Duluth, Gary, New York, that the same conditions prevail. So the wise man will cling to his half a loaf until he has the chance to a whole one. The carpenters of Lynn, Mass., voted not to ask a raise in wages because of the depressing conditions throughout New England. Things must indeed be in a bad way when a labor union refuses to vote for a raise. The United States Department of Labor has released a bulletin showing that unemployment is great thru out the entire world and that countries like Norway and Sweden are showing string along this line which is somewhat, out of the ordinary. Our southern friends will do well to stay away from the big cities as they are overcrowded and little work is going on. Building programs have fallen below the 1924 amount in most large cities and this does not speak well for spring and summer employment. Don't go anywhere to improve your condition unless you have a place waiting for you when you come. That is business, sense and common horse sense. Oscar DePriest Loses Political Fight In Chicago Leader Who Supported Democratic Mayor Gets Knock Out Blow From Wright, Anderson, Jackson Faction. Staff Correspondence Associated Negro Press CHICAGO) Ill., March 11—The entire country, because of Chicago's political prominence, is interested in a clean cut and unbiased analysis of the recent adermannate contest in Chicago. Chicago politically, and in many other ways, sets the pace for the nation. Division of forces, fictional fights, and seeming diversion of energy make those of other cities wonder. It is fair enough to know the whys and wherefores. Up until two years ago, Chicago had two aldermen for each ward. Under a change of law, the city was divided into fifty warrials, with one alderman for each ward. In the old order, Louis B. Anderson and Moberl R. Jackson were aldermen of the Second Ward. The way of their remaining there is a long story interwoven with leadership of Edward H. Wright and Oscar DePriest Under the new division of wards, Mrs. Jackson became alderman of the Third Ward, and Anderson continued in the Second. The so-called DePriest organization supported both candidates in the last election. In fact, from all appearances, there was 'sweet harmony' until the approach of the mayorality campaign. During this contest, DePriest supported the present mayor, William E. Dever, Democrat. DePriest is ambidextrous; he craves power, and pursues an aggressive, as well as ruthless warfare to obtain it, according to those who know him best. He had a taste of national leadership, liked it, and could have absorbed more, except for one thing, the onbig thing that hampers his leadership, according to those who know him best, and that is the ease, with which he abundant friendships, and proceeds to grind them, figuratively speaking, with his heel—that is, if they will be ground. "Aye, there's the rub." There are some who will not be ground, and that's the answer to the recent affer-mande election in Chicago. DePriest picked a candidate for alderman, Dr. Richard A. Williams, head of the Royal Circle of Friends, a man of means, but inversed in the hard, practical ways of Chicago, big time politics, where organization has been developed to run with the precision of an Elgin watch. Williams was out in front, but DePriest was the "power behind the throne." DePriest was determined to beat "Bob" Jackson. His Second Ward organization backed A. L. Williams in the Second against Alderman Anderson, but it was stated that DePriest claimed to know that the organization fostered by DePriest would never have supported Williams had DePriest frowned on the action. DePriest had not gained the putation of sitting supinely by on any proposition or individual out of line with her wishes. So, the regular organization called that "the bunk." Organization Campaign Vigorous But Clean Cut The regular organization, both in the Second and Third Wards, carried forward a vigorous, unrelenting campaign, but it was clean out. The literature and letters were plentiful but there was nothing about them that savored the gutter. There come out of the election the continued leadership of the organiza- tion, and the forces of recognized political power, which all Chicago has learned to respect and admire. The Field Marshall is Edward H. Wright, at present a member of the State Commerce Commission, but who has been a dominant figure in politics for more than a quarter of a century. Mr. Wright is the founder and first Press of the now nation-famous Apomotox Club. His leadership is recognized stricly on merit by the people of Chicago, without regard to race. He is a definite and sought factor in the highest councils of Republican politics in the City of Chicago, in Cook County and the State of Illinois. More than any other man he is being urged by his friends to become a candidate for Congress in the first District of Illinois, now served by Congressman Martin D. Madden. Mr. Wright has stated to the Associated Negro Press that he has no ambition for national politics. His friends have said that they will back him in his leadership nationally as they have locally, but this master politician, who, different from some others, knows how to make friends and hold them, merely shakes his head doubtfully. Commissioners Wright does not brush men aside who have the ability to do things. He finds the thing for what they are best fitted, uses their ability, and absorbs them in the organization, unafraid that they may get influence that he cannot control for he knows the impregnability of his present position. "Brooks Collection" Now Part of Hampton Library Associated Negro Press HAMPTON, Va., March 11—Miss Harriet S. Taylor, teacher of 'English and public speaking in the Hampton Institute Academy and Teachers' College, recently read in Oxford Hall, before a general assembly of workers and students, a paper, prepared by Miss Winifred A. Horron, acting librarian, on "Libraries and the Use of Books." The British Museum Library in London has a collection of 2,001,000 books and 56,000 manuscripts. In this Museum there is also a library that was dug out of the ruins of Nineveh—not a library of books, but of tablets of clay from one to twelve inches square such as Professor A. T. Clay, recently described as precious finds in Assyrian excavations. Some 10,000 of these tablets have been arranged and cataloged. The public library movement in the United States began in 1752 when Benjamin Franklin established the Philadelphia Literary Society. In 1847 Josiah Quinney, mayor of Boston, proposed to the city council and the council passed a request to the Legislature that Boston should be allowed to pay a tax to establish a "free" library. This was probably the beginning of the free public library. It was not until 1887 that the first library school was started. The first school was started in a small way at Columbia and later moved to the State Library at Albany. There are library schools at Pratt Institute, Simmons College, Drexel Institute, the New York Public Library, and elsewhere. Growth of Hampton Library When Miss Loomora E. Herron, the present librarian, came to take charge of the Hampton Institute Library in 1891 there were about 5,000 volumes to care for. Sixty-four volumes taken out in a day was the highest record that year. In 1903 the Huntington Memorial given in memory of Collis P. Huntington, was opened. At present there are in the Huntington Library about 200 periodicals, and a collection of perhaps 15,000 mounted pictures. The Malone-collection of books, on the Negro, which is for reference only, numbers about 200 volumes. The private library of Dr. P. B. Brooks, a colored physician of Washington, D. G. was recently purchased for Hampton Institute, through the kindness of George Foster Peebles of New York. From the Palmer Fund, The collection numbers 10,000 books. From this collection some 600 volumes have been taken for the Malone collection. The Huntington Memorial Library at Hampton Institute contains some interesting works of art; namely the equestrian statue of General Armstrong by the English sculptor, E. D. Pegram; a bass-refel of Collis P. Huntington by Bella L. Pratt; portraits of Samuel C. Armarong, D. Hollis B. Erissell, George Foster Peabody, E. D. Monroe, C. P. Huntington, and Robert B. Moton four paintings by the colored artists, H. C. Tanner, The Bango Lesson, The Ragpipe Lesson, The Lion's Head and the "Return of the Fishermen" painting of an Indian Head by Leigh Richard Miner; and a small painting of General Armarong grave. This list should also include other bouts and pictures. The Library at Hampton Institute is fortunate in possessing two especially old books: the portfolio edition of Shakespeare's plays, which was presented by Miss Julia Lathers and Miss Elizabeth R Lathers, and an old Dutch Bible, which was presented by Spencer W. Phranek. These works are kept under glass in a case in the upper hall of the Library. Boys thrive better on inspirations and encouragements than they do on prohibitions.

In view of the alarming facts and figures relative to Tuberculosis, and especially as affecting our race, XIV seems indeed nothings less than tragic that apparently so little interest is being shown by way of combatting this disease. This article is not expected to advance new theories, but rather it is hoped that certain well established facts may be brought to our attention, thereby stimulating us to practice safer and saner hygienic principles at home and in public. Why do four times as many of our race in St. Louis die of tuberculosis than do other races in ratio of population? How and why must we fight it harder and more persistently than ever? We must fight it by applying incessantly and earnestly all the laws of -Hygiene that are practical. We must fight it because we owe such protection to ourselves, our relatives, our neighbors and to posterity. We have no right to handicap future generations' by allowing them to inherit a constitutional weakness for the invasion of a disease so destructive. They are certainly entitled to as clean a bill of health as our present civilization can afford. It is not enough that we have laws prohibiting persons expectorating in public gatherings and public conveyances. It is a good law but can not always be enforced. Results can be expected, only when we have acquired the proper humanitarian vision based on a voluntary interest in the welfare of others and an unselfish desire to perpetuate life, health and happiness. Certain races are more susceptible to a particular disease. Just as the Jews are more often affected by diabetes, and the American white man succumbs readily to certain types of fevers, so the American Negro, with the possible exception of the American Indian, registers the highest mortality from Tuberculosis in ratio of population. Unfortunately some of the most important factors which contribute to the invasion of Tuberculosis, are beyond our immediate control. General atmospheric conditions, inadequate housing, crowded conditions not allowing enough air, space per individual, transient occupants who may from time to time leave tubercular infection, houses so infected escaping thorough fumigation, and economic conditions which make prohibitory proper nutrition and clothing, especially in children. A general housecleaning with the judicious use of germledles may set in motion millions of tubercular germs that were inactive in dry dust and spitum. There should be at least twenty-five cubic yards of air space to each person in a sleeping room, yet in many cases this amount of air is breathed by four or five persons. The room temperature should not be too high, even in winter. Not higher than 70 degrees Fahrenheit, and with proper ventilation. There are some contributing causes over which we have control: Undue exposure to weather, insufficient clothing (too often this is done for sake of style), neglect of exercise, sunlight and sun, and the habit of assuming a stooping posture. These all tend to lower fungal vitality. The tubercular germ is not an imaginary object, but a very stubborn reality. When we realize that in dry spumum they can live six or eight months and still be capable of causing new infection, and that it requires dry heat at 100 degrees Centigrade, 30 minutes to kill the germ, we get a better idea of its dangers. All "sheep saddled" coughs remaining over a long period of time should be regarded with suspicion. An early examination may prevent untold suffering and save other lives besides the life of the afflicted individual. We appeal to every one to help wage war on Tuberculosis. Knoxville, Tenn. Mar. 11—Plans are being made for the celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of Knoxville College of this city. The school was opened in Knoxville in September, 1875, under the leadership of Rev. J. P. Wright and has continued since that time as one of the leading educational institutions among the Negro race.

Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) © 1926, Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for March 15 OUR LORD'S RESURRECTION LESSON TEXT—John 20:1-29. GOLDEN TEXT—The Lord is risen indeed.—Luke 24:34. PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus Rises From the Dead. JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus Risen From the Dead. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Christ's Victory Over Death. IC—Christ's Victory Over Death. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Proofs of the Resurrection of Jesus. The resurrection of Christ is one of the foundation truths of Christianity. Its entire superstructure stands or falls upon its reality. It is the grand proof that Christ was what He claimed to be, the Messiah, the Son of God (Matt. 12:39-40; John 2:19-21). His resurrection authenticated his claims. If Jesus did not rise from Joseph's tomb, He was not the Son of God, nor a true prophet (He said frequently while alive that He would arise), neither a Savior, nor even a good man, for He would then be a falsifier. However, if He did arise, all that He said concerning Himself is true. His resurrection declared Him to be the Son of God with power (Rom. 1:4). 1. The Empty Tomb (cv. 1-10). John does not enter into a description of the resurrection of Christ, but says the tomb was empty, and that Jesus had repeatedly manifested Himself after the tomb was found empty. To see the body of Christ with a spear thrust and nail prints, and then the empty tomb was all that faith needed. 1. The Testimony of Mary Magdalene (xv. 1:2). This woman out of whom Jesus had cast seven demons (Mark 16:9; Luke 8:2), announced the fact of the empty tomb to Peter and John. Prompted by great love to Him for His kindness to her, she wept early to the tomb even "when it was yet dark." "She was last at the cross, and first at the grave. She stayed longest there and was soonest here." This woman's love for the Master was genuine though her knowledge as to His resurrection was defective. She had realized great good at His hand, therefore she could not rest until she had done her utmost for Him. 2. Personal Investigation by Peter and John (vv. 3, 10). The news of the empty tomb which Mary brought with breathless haste so moved John and Peter that both ran to investigate. When John came to the empty tomb he gazed into it, but Peter entered it. This investigation convinced them. The removal of the stone from the sepulcher and the arrangement of the grave clothes convinced them that the enemy could not have done this. 11. The Manifestation of the Risen Lord (vv. 11-29). 1. To Mary Magdalene (vv. 11-18). (1) Mary Weeping at the Empty Tomb (v. 11). Peter and John went home, but Mary could not. She stood weeping. Home was nothing to her while her Lord was missing. Earnest love need not weep long for Jesus is found of those who love Him. She should have been refolging that the grave was empty, for the empty tomb was eloquent proof of His messiahship and delity. Had His body been there she would have had real cause for weeping. (2) Mary Questioned by the Angels (vv. 12-13). She viewed through her tears angels at the tomb who inquired as to the cause of her sorrow. She replied, "Because they have taken away my Lord and I know not where they have said Him." (3) Jesus Reveals Himself to Mary (vv. 14-16). She first saw the angels and then her eyes lighted upon the Lord. As soon as He called her by name she recognized Him and fell at His feet weeping. (4) Jesus Forbadé Her to Touch Him (v. 17). This showed that she was coming into a new relationship to Him; besides there was not time for such familiarity while the disciples were in darkness. "Go tell my brethren" was the message she must carry. (5) Mary's Testudiony (v. 18). She told the disciples that she had seen the Lord. 2. To the Disciples (vv. 19-29). (1) When Thomas Was Absent (vv. 19-23). a. His message of peace (v. 19). b. He showed His hands' and His side (v. 20). a. He commissioned them (v. 21). b. He defended the power that was bestowed upon them (v. 21). (2) Wilko Thomas Was Present (vv. 24-29). a. Victory of sight and touch (vv. 24-28). A Prayer Father, we thank Thee that Thou host called us, in work for Thee, and we pray that Thou, will show each one of us just what Thou wouldst have us to do. Visions it is well to have a vision of a better life than that, of every day, but it is the life of every day from which elements of a better life must come.—Masterlinck.

To a small but appreciative audience, Rev Stanley, last Sunday delivered one of his characteristically impressive messages. His subject was "The Christ Centered Life." Christ taught, deny thyself. He exemplified his teachings in his own life for he had not where to lay his head. He depended upon God and thus lived an eminently successful life. To live a Christ centered life may mean the acceptance of what the world calls adversity. It may mean poverty. It does mean humility. It will however, be an inspiration to those who come in contact with such a life. It will live on after the body is dead.
