NEW PHONE NUMBER CENTRAL 4620 INDICT SIX IN PLOT TO OUST NEGRO Attempted To Drive Postal Employee From Home In A New York White Neighborhood. DISTRICT SEGREGATION IN K. C. AND BALTIMORE Negroes Barred From White Neighborhood In Mo. City And Mob Attacks Home In Balto. NEW YORK, August 26.—Six whites were indicted Friday of conspiracy to drive, Samuel Brown, colored postal employee, from his home in the exclusive Institution Hill district. Musca M. Robertson, white real estate operator, said to be the leader in the plot, was released Saturday on a $500 bond. Used Five Methods The indictment, which was handed up to County Judge J. Harry Tiernan, charged Robertson and the five other white men, whose names are unknown to the Grand Jury, with conspiring to use four methods to oust the letter carrier from his home. The methods were: (1) Attempting to have Brown transferred from duty in the Staple, ton post office to an office much further distant from his home. (2) Attempting to have the Westerleigh Building and Loan Association foreclose the first mortgage on Brown's home. (3) Attempting to get fire insurance companies to cancel the fire-insure annexes collies of the letter carrier. (4) Committing acts of vandalism on the property from July 5, 1924, to July 7, of this year. The plot against Brown began nearly a year ago. Last month vandals attacked his home, doing considerable damage. An attack occurred soon after Brown bought the house from Mrs. Klen Evans for $8,500. When he moved in and other residents of the district discovered that a Negro family had purchased the property, efforts were made to get him to sell at a profit. The first offer was $9,000, and when this was refused the bid was raised to $10,000 and then to $10,000. Soon after Brown had refused the first offer the first acts of vandalism were committed. When the $10,000 offer was presented, according to Mrs. Brown, who is a teacher in Public School 11 in Staples, her husband was ready to accept but just as he was prepared to make the deal the compilers managed to have the company that held the fire insurance policy cancelled it. The officers of affairs, said Mrs. Brown, caused her husband to decide definitely that he must continue to hold the house as a matter of principle. Further offers were refused at once. At one time the Brown received a letter signed K. K. K, which warned them to leave. The Brown family experienced minor troubles with the other residents of the section, including, as testified before the Grand Jury, cancellation of three insurance policies, until last month, and when on that occasion there was considerable damage done, the letter carrier called on District Attorney Albert C. Footh to take action. 68. Witnesses Called Nearly seventy witnesses were called before the Grand Jury during the period of the consideration of the case. Many of them were neighbors of Brown. Among the others were representatives of the building and loan association and of the fire insurance companies from which Brown had take policies, which were later canceled. The failure of the Grand Jury to return early indictments caused most of the residents of the Castleton Hill district to believe that criminal prosecution would not be started. The indictment of the six whites was a surprise to them. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 26—Because he could not find colored homes to rent the Garland Apartments at 1815 East Seventh street, from which the colored families were driven to a white neighborhood segregational site, the owner, Grant Jeffera (white), has surmounted the demands of the whites and issued notice that the building is to be rented to white tenants only. The owner declared he would receive 50 per cent less income from the property because he had intended to raise the奖金 for colored tenants. BALTIMORE, Md., Aug. 26—A mob of witnesses estimated at 50 stormed the home of several colored families at 1732 Main street last week and drove them out scarcely a day after they arrived. The owner of the house, Samuel Heiler, was then set upon by the crowd and beaten. Several whites were arrested when the police responded to a riot call. They were later released with fines of $1.00 to $4.00 and cost. The family lived in the block where the attack occurred. When a like sounds like a blowout, there isn't much taste in it.

Messages also were sent by mayors of many cities. J. Silas Harris, president of the congress, explained that the congress was an organization working for racial betterment, and that it welcomed assistance and suggestions from members of both races in America. Among the messages read was one from Gifford Pinchot, governor of Pennsylvania, who expressed sympathy with the aim of the congress "to lift the standard of Negro citizenship and to aid the race to reach higher ground in American civilization." Mrs. Mirm Ferguson, governor of Texas, expressed the hope that "the high aim of your organization will be fully accomplished." Governor Baker of Missouri said: "The Negroes of Missouri, under the leadership of some of the best Negro citizens, are being helped wonderfully, and there should be no occasion whatever for any disturbance in the peaceful relations between the two races. It is the duty of all good citizens, regardless of race or color, to bend every effort to give all an opportunity to function as real citizens of the state and nation." Governor Paulen of Kansas wrote: "Your race has one far in the last sixty years, and the organization and reaction since the days of slavery has been your comparatively recent realization that progress and advancement can be made through the efforts of your own people. Through personal efforts and shrin organizations such as yours, the race can do infinitely more than can be done for it by political, charitable, or economic help from the outside."

Dr. Motton discussed race relations frankly, as is his custom when talking to white and colored people in the South. "Lynching, mob-law and the various forms of race persecution will never solve the so-called race problem in America," he declared. "There is enough democracy in this country for us all without resorting to these vicious un-American practices." The speaker did not agree with white people who assert that the Negro must keep in his place, contending that a man's place was what he makes it.

MOVE TO STOP SEGREGATION U.S. EMPLOYEES Equal Rights League Holds A Hearing With Chairman Of Republican National Convention BOSTON, Mass., August 26—In a conference with the chairman of the National Republican Committee, Senator W. N. Butler, a delegate of the National Republican League League headed by Rev. H. H. Proctor of Brooklyn asked that movies he made to eliminate the growing tendency to segregate employees in the federal government departments. Opposed To Segregation Rev. D. L. Ferguson opened the appeal, Secretary Wm. Monroe, Troter elaborated on the prevalence and injury of the practice and urged Mr. Butler to remove it thru the party's part in chairman and chief adviser to the president, stating the League urged the race to support the party in the belief that with a President) and a Chairman both from Massachusetts, segregation will be removed. Senator Butler said he was opposed to segregation and would work against it. While it was a matter of principle yet he had been told there was little of it in Wash.ington, he said, and was open to its extension. He told legislation against it, as segregation was an executive and administrative matter. He said he would introduce the Dyer Bill at the coming session. He might not be able to have his way on segregation, but would try and would confer later with representatives of the League. Rev. E. K. Nichols of Cambridge on getting admission that the evil was executive, said that therefore the President could stop it by order and that the delegation asked him to get the president to net. Senator Outler replied that it was not customary for presidents to interfere with Department office regulations. He admitted however, that evident evidence of the president's involvement President usually caused a change. Secretary Trotter declared that segregation was extensive, asked if the Senator welcomed information and receiving an affirmative reply, told what he had personally seen especially in the Department of Justice, Registry of Treasury, etc., and urged the eradication as to toilets, lockers, rest rooms and eating places. H. H. P. Proctor-stated that in New York City the Colored people believed that segregation was prevalent and resented it politically and Colored leaders could hold them in line if he would remove the practice. Rev. B. W. Swain, national vice president at large, agreed with the senator that segregation started before Wilson, was Republican, and so should be removed by Republicans. He declared that the president had ordered the Coolidge to cabinet officers would remove it and the League asked that he get the President to give that nod. Offer's Evidence Mrs. M. Cravath Simpson's offer to again send data as to where segregation existed and how much, was accepted to the called slight. It can be seen by senators. The League appeals to every member of the race who doubtless will criticize the Republican Chairman if he does not discover the extensiveness, to let Senator Butler know the facts and the feeling of the race at once, (alas) 9 Cornell, especially these colored campaign workers, and thus to make sure of this opportunity to remove the worst of all degradations.

Failing in an effort to prevent colored citizens from visiting the local Thurson park, white antagonists resorted to force, which resulted in a series of ruse clashes, terminating Sunday night in a pitched battle between over a hundred white and colored persons. A riot call was sounded. Police from the Northwestern district responded and arrested five youths, three white and two colored. Whites Started Trouble. The converted efforts of white youths of the neighborhood to drive Negroes from the park began Thursday night when several colored persons were set upon by whites. From then on until Sunday nightights occurred in the park between colored and whites, but the police were unable to apprehend any of the disturbers. On Sunday night when colored persons appeared at the park a crowd of whites started after them. Within a short time more than a hundred white and colored youths had gathered and a general fight began. Stones, sticks and firsts were used freely, until a squad of police appeared on the scene in answer to a riot call.

Aug. 26 — A near riot resulted here last Sunday, when William Jackson a 20-year-old youth was simultaneously shot by two white patrolmen at Hastings and Rowena streets.

"UNCLE TOM'S CABIN" TO BE 'STAGE JOKE' English Making A Musical Comedy Of Harriet Beecher Stowe's Immortal Slave Story And Masterpiece Of American Literature. LONDON, August 20. What promises to be one of the greatest contests ever committed to Immortal American art has been proposed by theatrical producers berry; and are rangers are already well under way for the carrying out of the plans. The vehicle for this design of money making lords will be "Uncle Tom's Cabin," the epoch making masterpiece of American literature written by Harriet Beecher Stowe in 1851. Made a Laughing Stock. The plan is to turn the almost sacred story into a fart to so-called twentieth century musical comedy) for production on the stage in the English provinces. Such intentions were discussed last week by Harry Moor and Charles Cultum, jointly responsible for the experiment. What About Hamlet The adapters in announcing their design assert that the atmosphere of the story had been retained, but they found the original types of virtue and villainy too accentuated to be produced 2 generations after slaves had been freed. Many Americans wonder what would be the reaction if Shakespeare's great drama "Hamlet" which is as out of date, were converted into a musical comedy. A Critic's Version It is reported that a colored man has been obtained from one of the publications of Georgia to play Uncle Tom who in the musical version plays the villian Leroy. A noted critic avers that the celebrated American author would woe if he knew that the great works were so basely misrepresented. An Exponent Of Truth and Justice A Square Deal For Every Man GUN BLAST KILLS 8 AT CAMP GRANT Eleven Members Of Famous Eighth Infantry Howitzer Company Are Also Wounded In Accident WORLD WAR HERO VICTIM Capt.

Duncan, when a trench mortar exploded at the rifle range, killing eight and seriously wounding eleven members of the howitzer company. The explosion occurred while Captain Osgood A. Browning, a hero of the World War, was instructing his men how to fire a trench mortar. The cause, which is yet uncertained, is believed to have been a defective shell or failure to lock the breech of the gun. Dead and Injured Those listed among the dead are: Capt. Osgood A. Browning, 4110 Parkway; Corp. Henry Williams, 501 Washahar street; Pvt. Charles Wright 1828 Federal street; Benjamin Anderson, 3207 Princeton avenue; Todd Mosely, 7220 Wentworth avenue; Delmos Campbell, 159 E.40th street; Elmore Bynes, 21 W. 18th street and Herbert Durpunt, 125 E.32nd street.

Richmond were appointed to the board of investigation. Oswald Harris, son of Lieut. Harris, and Harold Williams, guest of Capt. Brownling, both under 14 years of age, witnessed the incident. The boys deceived that the shell exploded after one effort had failed, and the projectile was removed from the gun and the sand filling extracted and replaced with cordite. **Foreign Explosion** A terrific explosion occurred on the second attack on the building. Howitzer. The gun acted the same as if it had been a giant-bomb dropped from an aerospace into the midst of the men. Plying steel tore their bodies, the closest persons to the gun torn at almost to bits, so great was the force of the volume. It was necessary to operate on one man to remove the flesh and bones of another that had been blown into his body. Capt. Brownings wife who was on a nearby hill, witnessed the explosion. She collapsed. **Issues: Statement** Following the explosion then, Porren issued the statement: "The innumerable occurrence, at which I give, is being investigated by a hostel of the most experienced officers in the Third Third, Division. They will go into the causes. In the fullest detail and their findings and what they are based on, will be inadequate through the press as soon as received and considered. The alarm or alarm of Accidents, due to mechanical causes are incidents not only of military work, but all human activities. A perusal of the daily press demonstrates their university. The percentage of accident, military camps is lower than in any other occupation where mechanical appliances are a part. The injured are being given the best care obtainable, and will have my personal attention."

This announcement was made by E. K. Bigelow, retiring president of the National Association of Re-Manufacturers. Furnishers, which opened a self-fit annual convention here Monday.

AUG. 28. 1925 WOMEN MISSIONARIES OUTSTRIPPING THE MEN CHURCH REPORT SHOWS WOMEN MISSIONARIES OUTSTRIPPING THE MEN CHURCH REPORT SHOWS Episcopal Church Has Had A Broad Expansion During The Fast Twenty Five Years NEW YORK, Aug. 28. —Women are outstripping the men in the church to figures prepared by the department of missions of the Episcopal church for the first quarter of the present century which will be rounded out when the forty-eighth triennial general convention of the church assembles in New Orleans, October next, a convention eventually will mark the 40th anniversary of the foundation of the American church. At the opening of the twentieth century the roster of the missions department showed that sixty-nine men and forty women were engaged in the foreign field exclusive of the native workers collated in the respective localities. Twenty-five years later the American mission are served in Alaska, Africa, Ching, Japan and the Philippines, and the other outlying posts of the church number 237, who are engaged as nurses, teachers, social service workers, physicians and evangelists, as compared with 197 men in the same fields again exclusive of the native workers. Reports for the current year in dicate that 7,762 persons were baptized in foreign lands by Episcopal missionaries as compared with 1,364 in 1900, and there are 36,702 communicants of the church in foreign countries now, as compared with 6,148 in 1900. There are 23,763 pupils in the 416 church boarding and day schools in "foreign lands this year, as against 4,620 pupils in 107 school in 1900; and are 23,763 pupils in 581 Sunday schools of the church this year, as compared with 5,572 pupils in 125 schools twenty-five years ago. The Episcopal organization had "ninety churches and chapels in the mission field" in 1900, whereas today it has 448; of hospitals it had nine in 1900 and now has fourteen in which 12,174 patients were treated in 1900 and 242 in 1900 and $1,574,892 last year. The contributions for the church work from noncommissionaries were $17,947 in 1900 and $210,000 last year, while the appropriations for work in the foreign mission field were $216,242 in 1900 and $1,574,892 last year. The extent to which the church has been supported by its communicants during this quarter century is indicated in the following figures: in 1900 the amount given by the church at home for all purposes was $16,036,814 as compared with $39,243,127 in 1923, the last year; while for the general work of the church—maltenance of missions and purposes other than parochial and diocesan—there was contributed in 1900 $643,409, and during the current year $3,567,314.

SIX JAPANESE SCALE MOUNT ALBERTA FEAK EDMONTON. Alta. Aug. 12 (Special 'Correspondence) — The first ascent to the peak of Mount Alberta has been made by a party of six Japanese, headed by Yako Maki, secretary of the Japanese Alpine club, and accompanied by three Swiss guides from Jasper Park Lodge. The higher slopes of Mount Alberta have hitherto defied the efforts of mountain climbers to scale the peak. The party left Jasper Park recently on a 25-day exploration trip into the Columbia icefields, having as their objective, the head-waters of the Athabasca and north Saskatchewan rivers, as well as the ascent of Mount Alberta. WASHINGTON, August 19. — A report on the new federal Petition law shows that 11,689 former United States employees are on the roll. The assistant secretary of the treasury reports that on June 30 last, more than $73,006,000 has been paid into the fund. The balance is approximately $44,000,000, has increased beyond expectations. These contributions are from individuals forming the operation of the law and must, at some future time, be repaid to the persons contributing with compound interest at 4 per cent either in the form of an annuity or a refund. Each contribution is credited to the individual contributing. PRESBYTERIANS' LARGEST MEMBERSHIP IN HISTORY $57,714,231, or an average of approximately 59 cents a week for each communicant. The total was $62,067 more than the previous year. The largest item was $42,082,181, for local congregational expenses. Of the annual $15,000,000 budget authorized by the general assembly to be raised among the churches for benefices, the total receipts were $9,723,529, or $5,277,471 short of the goal. The number of churches in the denomination was 5,044, which was 254 fewer than the previous year. There were 10,017 ministers, a gain for the year of 146. Politics From "White House" Associated Negro Press Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C. Aug. 26.—All during the summer dispatches have come from Swampscott, Massachusetts, telling of the content visitors had learned about their steps to White Court for assistance with President Coolidge. There have been many big and men's women. In the list however, there has not been noted the names of the Hon. Jerry Lincoln Johnson, National Committee man from Georgia, or Mrs. Williams, the National Committee woman, who has there been noted the names of the Hon. Perry W. Howard, National Committee man from Mississippi, or Mrs. Boozey, the National Committee woman of the same state. The Hon. William Charette, Matthews of Boston, titular leader of racial forces in the unified campaign of last year, has been down to New York, and there has been announced appointment, to minor positions, of a few people with the knowledge and approval of Senator Butler, chairman of the Republican National Committee But, there has been nothing said of the distinguished Boston lawyer, visited the President. Colored Ambera a would like to see the group be called into conference matters affecting the welfare and progress of 15.0,0.00 people. There are no members of Congress at this time and it is contended that there is no white man living who can speak for so large a group with the knowledge and authority of one within the group. There has been wide discussion of "major appointments" but up to this hour, since President Coolidge has been in office "under his own name," as the saying goes, there has not been made an appointment of the kind in mind, declared those who are observing the trend of political events. It is maintained that President Coolidge is "stronger and more popular with the people now that he was on the day of his election." The remark of one citizen coming here from Ohio is worthy of note: "We still have faith in President Coolidge, but you know faith without works is a ad." Coolidge Informed But Inactive President Coolidge is informed in detail of the trend of public opinion so far as it affects Colored America. Official information has been laid before him and it can be stated in high detail that his administration has sought facts from all departments of the government and has endeavored to and cooperation. "But you don't begin to realize what a brick wall we are against?" declared an official very close to the administration. Continuing, he said, "It is not a difficulty confined to the Colored people. The white people are having the same kick. The southern Democrats have got themselves so strongly entrenched, and have proved to be so shitty in political matters, that we are really up against a brick wall. We want to go somewhere, but there is no place to turn. And thus, the political outlook continues "dark and glorious"? Segregation, in its most effective manner, has been the government employees. Chief executive blacked by years of discrimination in putting over a good life, are able to steer clear of the high authorities who in instances have been known to frown upon segregation. It may be stated that the "Flowers that Rt. are" "conceived" but they are not very much "disturbed" that makes a real difference. They will be disturbed by this time next year, and they will be disturbed by some things are on. They will be some things are on. Time that are not being done now. It is maintained, however, that Colored America will never hold a worth white position in national politics until the "men higher up" are disturbed twelve months in the year. City Politics Example of Continued Disruption **Restoration** There are a number of cities in the country where politics has reached such a stage that the local leaders are described about the electoral vote in the words of the late Bert Willett, *Conservative*. Notably, among those are Chicago and Wichita. In Chicago, Edward H. Wichita is root and acknowledged leader in Chicago and Illinois politics, is a very definite and practical part of the party movement every day in the year. He is part of every big conference leading to party success and no less a person than the county chairman recently stated, according to press reports, that the opinion of Wright is more valuable to him than that of any other member of the committee. Is there today, any member of the group in America, who is so intimately associated with national affairs? With all the respect to the willingness of "Barons" there is not, colored America is only an incident, at this time in the big issues of the national game. If there were one person in racial national politics at this time who could drive the bargain that Edward Wright can drive in Chicago, there could, or would, be little complaint in the principal issues of the day. In New York, through the Democratic leadership of Fordlin and Q. Morton, there has been real political development and contact. While Morton, yet a former man, has not developed, the political prestige of Wright in Chicago, his opinions are respected, and he stays a definite and unequalled game to advantage. The New York mayoral contest is attracting national interest, because of the political complexity. EDITOR'S NOTES "The Fate of the Disobedient Son" John Heathwood resided in a comfortable estate in Festus, Missouri. His 'home' was surrounded by nothing save scenery which naught but a real artist could reproduce. Great bluffs rose in the near distance facing his home with beautiful green trees, flowering green trees and the bright green velvety grass which might be expected to grow nowhere save in the blue grass regions of old Kentucky. Not far to the west of his home was Garner's Grove. It was at the west window facing this forest covered area that John sat reading the morning paper. He had been well educated and well reared, and was at this time preparing to go to Harvard U., to study law. Suddenly he cast aside his paper and muttered something about which his mother, who had just come inside of the room, did not understand. "And what is so interesting, my son? Come and have lunch," said Mrs. Matilda Heathwood. "I was with a sudden jerk of the head and a twitch of his thin lips, that John faced his mother, who was dressed in old fashioned clothing and a mannockerief, died around her head. "O, nothing much, only I sick and tired of these articles in every morning's news about me. Here read this," retorted the boy. With jerkling rise and a face portraying disgust he took the paper to his mother who stood motionless in the doorway. Her eyes were wildly roving around the room as she nervously hit her lips trying to form some solution as to the reason for her son's reply. Nervously she held the paper before her and read as her son had read: "Whatever is to be done by enque, he can do. The attitude which he strikes, the way in which he walks, his gesture, his sonorous voice and the wonderful play of his features are most remarkable." it was here that Madam Matilda broke off and eried "wonderful" wonderful "wonderful." "Wonderful," nay, "granted" John, "it is molesting. A youth such as I should see some of the world and I have concluded the very place that is real lively—and that is New York. There I can see the bright lights of Broadway and spend the evening in song, drink and dance." With a rebuke smiling he left the room. "Bomont 1600," she heard him say, "Send a cab immediately to 481 S. Mills street immediately, please. Thank you." Click went the receiver and he again appeared in the room with a spring coat on his arm. "Don't remonstrate, mother, because there is nothing to change my mind. I am bound for the bright lights of New York City. I must go javelow." In a second he was gone, for the cab driver had sounded his siren and John delayed him no longer than it took him to get $600 from his safe. With hands raised and eyes turned to heaven, in a very weak, trembling voice, the mother full of expression, dramatically prayed, "Oh Father in heaven, look-down, with mercy and change my son's mind." I know that he is young and wild and only knows of today and thinks not of tomorrow. With eyes full of tears and a choking throat she broke off unable to pray more. Unable to eat her long since cold dimmer, she cleared the table and went to retire. Restlessly she sobbed and turned about in the bed. John was now on the train bound for New York, smiling a rebuking smile as he pictured his mother saying, "and what is so interesting to my son? Come and have lunch." "Hang it all," he muttered aloud, "home is too confining—books, newspapers, magazines and a continuous plan for my future. I have no future. I live for today and today only." ORATORICAL CONTEST "A Glance at the Progress of the Nenro Race" When this race was first left toter- ing on its feet, such men as Frederick Douglas, Booker T. Washington and Paul Laurence Dunbar were men of prominence. These men opened up the field of oratory, education and poetry for this race. Thus the path was somewhat broken for those tired heart-sore feet. Education, the founda- tion of civilization progressed until the Negro race was capable of produc- ing its own teachers. From produc- ing its own teachers it moved and spread until now it has embraced every science known to the world. The great orchestral leader, Samuel Col- ridge Taylor and Roland Hayes, not to speak of several others, have won such world wide fame that is worthy of the youth today emulating and will permit no superior in the field of mu- scle. The works of the great scientist, Prof. George Carry, are not only be- painted with great beauty, but the world dumb with amaz- ment because of 'his miraculous achievements. The race has not out- ly entered the field of poetry education, science and music, but has also taken upon its shoulders the master- ing of other arts, the professional and commercial fields of activities. It has also interested itself in the latest inventions of science as the aeroplane and the radio. Thus have the members of this race striven from bondsmen to freedmen: from beasts to men; from mere chattels to he bartened away like so many sheep to the masters of not only themselves but of the universe besides: from helpless dependency to independence and with riches enough to aid others; from the masters which some of his despicable thrusts thru him, to the heights of honor and many qualities. We, as a people, have been blinded to the rapid strides of progress made by our race; for the activities of this race have not been recorded and handed to us in the home and in the A STEAMER "SAY Only Day Boat 100 MILE RIDE UP TO TO ALTON AND Leaves Washington Ave. TICKETS - Adults For Sale Only at the Boat MUSIC AND DANCING New Orleans H FATE MARABL MONDAY NITE MOONLIGHT I A.

C WE SPECIALIZE IN PARAMOUNT RECORDS PAGE THREE PAGE FOUR MONTELLA'S RADIO GIRLS AT THE BOOKER WASHINGTON Roscoe Montella's Radio Girls are giving the Booker Washington Theatre patrons a good show this week, with plenty of entertainment in songs, dances and comedy. The curtain raiser is called the "New Orleans Wiggle Medley," presenting Mr. Montella and a chorus of girls, who do some "lively dancing. Miss Geniva Stemmons, leading lady, follows with a song number "Somebody Loves," and then the comedians, Grimes and Winston, start their fun. Railline Montella, supported by the girls, scores a hit singing and dancing. "Sob Sister Sadie." The comedians, being too free with themes they have stolen, are in turn trisked by a woman and get "beat up" by the cop. This furriels much fun. Mamie Jefferson and "chorus sing "Everybody Loves My Baby." "Kid Lilies," the "Charleston King" is a rapid performer of that new dance craze and he takes the house by storm. Sheet Winston and the girls score a big hit with a song and dance "June Night." The comedians play a rolebler but decide to beg and the result is a stream of "illiterate" comedy climaxed in a mixup with a policeman in a restaurant. Miss Mon- bella and the girls again appear in a good number, "Until Tomorrow." The comedians decide to call on "Madam Who Is Sissy," who is looking for a husband. They find she wants a man who will blow his brains out to have a bravery. Here is foundation for more fun. The show closes with "I Want to Jazz," a song and jance stroll by the whole company. Boise Begee's famous *thundana girls*, a company of 29 performers and a seven piece Jazz band, will be the attraction at the Brooker Washington Theatre next week beginning Monday. This is one of the best musical comedy attractions on the circuit and should be a big winter next week. Monday will be pay day; as usual, for the patrons to receive these envelopes. THE PICTURE THEATRES THE COMET Corinne Griffith in "The Marriage Whirl" will be the Comet Theatre special this Saturday. It is a story dealing with the influence of jazz on the younger generation. It portrays country club life and the night life in New York and Paris in a true and unfinished way. There are many big scenes, elaborate gowns and costumes worn by those participating in these revels. Colleen Moore will be seen in "The Desert Flower" on Sunday. It is a romance of the railroad construction camp in which the star appears as the step-daughter of a section boss. She lives in a box car. There is plenty of romance in this picture.

Two big attractions will be co-featured on Thursday and Friday. Mildred Harris and Gladys Brockwell will be seen in "Unmarried Wives," a story of a woman's love sacrifices on the altar of pleasure. The other special will be "Night Life of New York" featuring Dorothy Kish. The story is one of John Bentley who failed both, in making 'money in New York' and winning the girl of his 'heart.' He went wost, made a fortune and married someone else, never getting over his grudge against the city, however. How he is Brawn back there and the assessment results make an absorbing story.

The story revolves around the theft of a famous string of pearls from a passenger on board an ocean steamer between Calcutta and Liverpool. From the salon of the ocean liner the scene changes to a large estate just outside England's capital. It is a rare combination of love, mystery, and intrigue, in which secret closets, sliding panels, pivot doors, a hunted man and a girl evading London's cleverest than-hunters play an important part. William Fairbanks and Pauline Garron will be seen in "Fighting Youth" on Monday; Big Boy Williams in "$1,000 Reward," and "Salvation Hunters" will be the Tuesday specials. Helen Holmes and William Desmond in "Outwitted" also "In The Name of the Law" will be shown on Wednesday.

"CHINA MUST HAVE MORE THAN CHINAMAN'S CHANCE" Williamstown, Mass., August 26—China must be given more than its Chinamans' chance," said Dr. Tehil Hasich, formerly in the Chinese diplomatic service, in an impassioned plan for justice for China before the institute of politics began. festly when you accuse monkeys of being related to ordinary politicians and lynchers, the slender is against the monkey, and the animal is the one to be defended. But when Bryan attempts to prosecute somebody for claiming that he and the Ku Klux are related to monkeys and conducts his prosecution on the theory that he and the Ku Klux are the injured parties, the thing becomes a side-splitting joke. Whoever heard of a monkey that would side up with race prejudice in Florida? Whoever heard of a monkey that would burn another monkey allure? Whoever heard of any monkey business like that going on in Tennessee now? A great fact of science cannot be established or overthrown in a Tennessee court. A scientific theory or proposition must be tried in a laboratory or by the laboratory method. In other words, it must be death with in it, and the colonists the very place from which Bryan and his particular human tribe are now trying to exclude it. What on earth will Judge Raulston's decision or the opinion of 12 Tennessee mountain whites have to do with the sciences of biology and evolution? For all time to come the picture of Bryan in this court will be one of the greatest jokes on the twentieth century civilization—We are still an uncivilized people.

"CHINA MUST HAVE MORE THAN CHINAMAN'S CHANCE Williamatown, Mass., August 26—"China must be given more than" a Chihuahua's chance," Said Dr. Teh, the domestic servant in the impassioned plan for justice for China before the institute of politics here Saturday. The speaker demanded the abolition of extra-territorial concessions. Under this system the great powers set up their own judicial systems in China. Pure business acumen, if nothing else, should prompt the powers not to kill the Chinese who lay the golden egg," said Dr. Hsieh. "China should be free from outside interference. For years she has been trying to rid herself of international exploitation." Dr. Hsieh said that Americans and Europeans hardly realize that the special privileges accorded foreigners in China has existed so long that the moral sense of these foreigners are so dulled as to shock their own countrymen. Dr. Hsieh, I. H. Roots, of Hankow, China did not believe that the protection of American nationals in China by our army and navy is useful It is often detrimental, he said. "We should recognize our opportunity and responsibility as Americans to take the lead in carrying out an adjustment between China and the foreign powers.

Rube Foster Releases Jamison And Donaldson President Ruse, roster of the Negro National League, handed Umpires Donaldson and Jake their releases while in St. Louis this week, to take effect Tuesday, September 1. Ruse's action was taken after his Chicago American Giants had lost four games to the St. Louis Stars. The president charged the men with being incompetent, and falling to observe the rules. One of his strongest points against them was the accusation that they had given the fans the impression that he wanted them to favor his players in the games, which he said was not true, but that the umpires had been giving his team the worst decisions. in the eyes of the fans here it is hard to see where Ruse's wife has suffered, because of Umpires' decisions, condemns serves credit for handling, the first three games without an assistant, and the Sunday crowd being the largest of the game. It is unfortunate that colored umpires must be released just before the end of the season. This was done last year and the result was that four white ampires, were given $500 apiece and expenses to oblige at ten World's Champion games between Kansas City and Hiltale.

Va., Aug. 26—In defeating the Parkersburg club here 7-0 Sunday, Oscar Owens, speedball pitcher of the Homestead Grays carved his name in baseball's "hall of fame" by pitching a no-hit, no run game Owens, in winning, allowed nary a swabble of a safe blow. But 30 men faced him throughout the entire nine innings, three bases on balla robbing him of a perfect game. The feat of Owens is all the more remarkable when it is considered that his Sunday performance marked the third time that he has accomplished this feat. BASEBALL Sat.,Sun.,Mon.,Tues.,Wed., Aug. 29, 30, 31, Sept. 1, 2 Detroit Stars Vs. St. Louis Stars STARS' NEW PARK COMPTON and MARKET Games Mean Much To The St Louis Stars Who Have To Face The Monarchs Again Next Week In Kansas City. Locals Must Win While The Champions Are Battling In Chicago, To Have Safe Lead When They Meet In Final Series. The Detroit Stars and the St. Louis Stars will meet in a series of five games at Stars' Park beginning Saturday. Although the St. Louis train is out in front in the race for the pennant, it is not by any means at a safe distance. Only three more series are scheduled and then the season will close, September 16. Kansas City has squeezed into second place while the Stars were beating the American Giants. The Monarchs are only four and one game behind each local one. If the Monarchs maintain their winning streak over the Giants in their series beginning Saturday at Chicago, then St. Louis must do the same with Detroit. St. Louis will go to Kansas City and meet the champions on their own grounds* for a series of five games, after the Detroit series. Judging by the past only, our boys need be four games ahead of the Monarchs which they start that series. They must leave Kansas City and win the series. They will will find St. Louis' battles with the crafty Dismusks and his broublesome Red Sox while the Monarchs are kicking Joe Bush's Barons around. St. Louis must beat Detroit, every game if possible. Rube may spring a surprise and topple the Champions, but it's a long shot. The games are going to be hard fought for if Rube fails against the Kansas City bunch and Detroit should win a couple of games from our Stars, then the auto city box will step into third position and be the best money money. So they have something to light for and may give us a lot of trouble. We shall see. All games will be called at 3:00 sharp. Tuesday will be ladies' free day, as usual. Detroit Loses Three To The Memphis Red Sox MEMPHIS. Aug. 24- The Detroit Stars telt here last night for Birmingham after losing three straight to the Memphis Red Sox.

Tiger Flowers defeated Allenlont Joe Gans in a furiously fought ten-round bout in Grand Rapids, Friday night. The clever fighting of Gans on the offensive and defensive forced Flowers to use all of his craft and ring generalship to box his opponent. In the latter rounds of the of the fight, Gans threatened to overcome the veteran fighter. Flowers enjoyed a 14 pound weight advantage over his challenger, the former weighing 154 pounds and the latter 168 pops. One of the most daring feats ever attempted by a woman was performed here, when Mrs. Eliza Dilworth, of San Antonio, Texas, ascended to a height of 3550 feet with Bessie Coleman, only colored aviatrix and made a parachute jump landing safely. It was the first time Mrs. Dilworth had ever been up in an airplane, and the first time any colored woman was ever known to have made a parachute jump. Mrs Coleman, who recently resumed flying after recovery from serious injuries received on the coast, is doing exhibition work for colored fairs in the South. The parachute jump by Mrs. Dilworth was an addition to the program suggestion by herself and only allowed after much consultation. It is expected that the Coleman-Dilworth team will prove a star attraction at the fairs in Austin and Dallas next month, if Mrs. Dilworth decides to continue her hazardous work. In a statement made after the jump, Mrs. Dilworth says that the experience was just an she imagined it would be. She at no time lost consciousness and the only sensation was that of extreme lightness. In fulfillment of his promise to the New York Boxing Commission to leave the United States within four months, including Sikhism, heavy-weight champion of the world announced through his manager plans for a tour of South America. He expects to leave New York early in September to engage in fights at Buenos Aires, Rio de Janerio, Lima and Santiago, Chile. Sikl plans one and possibly two more battles before he leaves the country. Sikl has fought twenty-five contests in the United States since he came here about a year ago.

August 26 The ravages of the boll weevil and the migration of colored farmers have hit South Carolina a blow from which she may not soon recover, probably not until there is a greater diversification of crops and the national system of the State. Certainly the high percentage of liliferae among both whites and blacks in the Palmetto State is not a contributing factor to constructive economic readjustment or to healthy and permanent progress. Conditions in Saluda County, located in th., western part of the State, are to be examined for which the per capita expenditure for the education of children, on the basis of teachers' salaries, was only $7.78 per annum for the white and 92 cents for the colored, an account several years ago by the U. S. Bureau of Education. Paltry expenditures, where nearly 5 per cent of the white and about 28 per cent of the colored inhabitants are employed, make the glaring illustration of a most unfavorable situation. During the past five years this county has lost 657 Negro farmers. Land in farms has decreased by nearly 30,000 acres and the value of farm land and buildings by 35 per cent. A further comparison with 1924 was 1929. Horses, nearly 900 mules, 1600 cattle and 850 less swine. The cotton crop in 1924 was 14,553 bales under the 1919 production, a decrease which represents a staggering financial loss to the local farmers and business men. To this can be added the money spent in the production of corn, sweet potatoes, peaches and hay. From other counties come similar reports, and it has been conservatively estimated that fully 15,000 colored farmers in addition to thousands of farm workers may migrate to South Carolina to engage in industry and to locate in other states where living conditions, employment opportunities and educational facilities are more attractive. DISCOVER NEW RACE OF DARK PEOPLE IN RUSSIA NEW YORK, August 26 — Prof. B. N. Gorkoloff, a Russian explorer who has traversed Western Siberia, reports the discovery of a hitherto unknown Dark Race on the River Poora. The tripe calls it itself "Nyeshen," which means "Fortress." It is entirely different from that of any of the other nationalities, populating Western Siberia. These people have dark hair and dark complexion. They have no intercourse with their neighbors and few of them engage in fishing and hunting beyond the borders of their own little country. Wisdan find luck makes a bully team. ST.

MISSOURI PRESS ASSOCIATION ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION Foreign Advertising Representatives W. B. Ziff Co., 608 South Dearborn St. Chicago, Ill. The Twenty-sixth Annual Session of the National Negro Business League has just closed at Tulsa, Oklahoma. Despite the fact that there has been some criticism of the League, yet the facts and the verdict of the unbiased judges of the work, show that much good in the way of business among that group, it serves, has been the results of the activities of the League. We all readily admit that there is a great need for more business among the colored people of this country as there is need for more churches, schools, professions and fraternities. We note that these professions and fraternities meet annually, semiannually, biennially and quadrennially. They meet for the express purpose of discussing those things that will further the interest of their respective organizations. We take it for granted they receive much benefit from these meetings because they continue from year to year. Therefore, for the same reason, the National Negro Business League has met annually for the past twenty-five years, and will continue as time rolls on. Not only are the business men and women of the Race benefited by these meetings, but the professions and farmers are benefited. These meetings afford an opportunity for those engaged in the several lines of business and professions to come together and discuss their problems, each being inspired and benefited by the experience of the other. If it is profitable for the Doctors to come together to discuss their new discoveries in medicine and surgery, surely it is also profitable for the merchant, banker, insurance man and the farmer to come together and discuss how they overcome their problems. We are beginning to wonder what has become of those Negro leaders who starred during the last National political campaign at the headquarters of the Republican party at Chicago last fall. Those leaders, more or less, told us in glowing terms what would be done for the Negro of the country, if Calvin Coolidge was elected President of the United States. After the election, we are told to readmit our faith in the leadership of William G. Matthews and all would be well with us in a very short while. Up to now, we have waited patiently for something to happen affecting the colored people of the United States; that we could interpret the fulfillment of the promises made by those leaders, but we regret to say that nothing to that effect has happened. Matthews and his associates have returned to their homes. Nothing so far as we can learn has been done. 'So we are beginning to wonder what has become of these leaders who six months ago, were so enthusiastic and optimistic about what Coolidge was going to do. Have they become faint-hearted and given up the fight for the rights of our people, or are they playing the part of Coolidge, keeping silent and doing nothing?' Matthews knows that the Negro press is ready and anxious to tell its patient readers just what the status of things is; he knows all he has to do is to touch the wires or use his pen telling the story over his signature and we will tell the people. With these facts and knowledge in hand, we can't but wonder what is the matter with Matthews. We wonder what is the matter with his associates chosen from the different sections of the country that they don't tell us something? If they have appealed to the President and Mr. Butler, National Committeeman, and have received from them the "cold shoulder" or the "deaf ear" they should in turn tell us and let their constituents know. Don't tell us to wait. We have already waited too long: We do not see how waiting is going to help our cause. The needs of all other groups, are being looked after while we are continually told to wait and have patience. A traitor is one who betrays the confidence imposed upon him others. Don't be a traitor. We are told that opportunity is like the man who has no hair on the back of his head—it must be grasped ere it passes of it is gone forever. This may be true or it may not be true. Opportunities are many. They pour a constant stream before our eyes. If it is not of one kind, another is constantly knocking at our door. The varieties are many. In them may be found good and evil; right and wrong; fortune and fate. Therefore it is up to you to be on the alert with a discriminating mind. Be prepared for the best when it comes. The lack of preparedness has left many wanderings in the dark while opportunity to help themselves and others passes. We see the idle among us, daily throwing away their time. A false conception of life have they. They toil not, yet they spend. They live by their "wits" and not by the sweat of their brow. We would commend to them the proverb, "Go to the ant thou slug-gard, consider her ways and be wise." We are thinking of the many opportunities that are offered the Negroes in St. Louis who work daily and earn good salaries. The opportunity to save is the one that is crying long and loud. Few they be who work, that do not make enough to save a little. To be able to take advantage of the right kind of opportunities, one must think, thought being the controlling element in the lives of men. Think of self, think of those who may be depending upon you for support, think of those who love you and wish you well, think of your duty to your community, state and nation. Opportunities, like the balls from the pitcher's box, are coming before you. They are good or bad balls at strikes. It is up to you to pick out the good ones to score.

LOUIS ARMUS, FRIDAY, AUG. 28, 1925 Devoted to a Discussion of Bocal and Civic Problems and Events "WINTER PROOFING" THAT JOB For the past four or five months, a number of the industrial plants in St. Louis have been working anywhere from one-half to a third of the number of men usually employed. This has meant that thousands of workers have been out of employment and have been unable to secure other work. In the meantime the chances of their setting aside some extra pay for the winter months or of their increasing their savings accounts have been greatly increased. This naturally raises the question as to why they are laid off and why services of others are retained over the slackest times. A recent visit to two of the large local industries employing a good number of colored workers throws some light on the question. At the first plant, in discussing the employment situation there, the Vice-President stated that they were working about a third of the usual number of men but that they hope soon to go back to full production. When asked why he had kept a particular colored engineer on a locomotor, he replied, "he knows his business and we can always depend upon him." Upon further questioning it was revealed that that particular worker had been with the company seven years and had been absent from work only when sickness prevented him from being there, and therefore he was shown consideration when the time came to cut down the staff. At the second plant an almost identical situation was found, the manager here stating that the particular worker or about whom the same question was asked came into the plant a raw recruit and after a couple of years became expert at a very difficult and technical process. They value his services highly. He is dependable, functional and regular in the duties, and has been retained during the shack season. How many of us are 100% dependable on our job? Can our employer depend on us to be on time every day when we are expected, and to put over our job in such a way that when the shack season comes we are not given the lay-off slip, but are retained because we have made our services practically indispensable? In other words, have we so performed our daily tasks that we have convinced our employer that he can not dispense with our work without you? For that in the meantime we will find employment elsewhere and not come back after the lay-off. Winter is coming and with it increased living expenses. There will be coat of buy, warm clothes will be needed, perhaps there will be doctor bills and hospital bills to pay. Let's begin now, if we have not already done so, to "Winter Proof" our job so that, there will be considerable less chance when there is a lay off of our being included and considerable greater chance of our services being continued throughout the year. Let's remember that our employer thinks in terms of punctuality, regularity and dependability as well as the effectiveness with which we put over our job and the interest we show in the success of the industrial organization employing us. These are the points that go to make efficient workers. On with the "Winter Proofing" of our jobs! LIBERIA DEMANDS RECOGNITION BY THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS Precipitates Action League Has Continuously Dedged—The Equality Of Members GENEVA. Aug. 26—In an emphatic note, the Negro Republic of Liberia has notified League of Nations members of her insistence on being regarded as a sovereign state, equal with any other member nation, and expressed deepest regret at the discrimination in the Conference, which placed Liberia among the special zones. Nevertheless, Liberia has signed the Arms treaty, taking into consideration the United States compromise article which provides that whenever a nation within a special zone agrees to comply with the pact's provisions it automatically removes itself from the special category. Liberia's action may precipitate an issue which the League has continually dodged—that of ruling on equality among members. The Irish first raised the issue when Britain denied the League's jurisdiction on internal disputes. The matter then was shelved after each country announced its viewpoint. Now it is regarded as inevitable that the question of different categories of members will come up and either the League Council will decide or the matter will be referred to the Hague. "Liberia is a sovereign state," her note says, "enjoying all rights belonging to her international personality. She endearls loyally to fill her correlative duties, and therefore believes the League cannot depart from the attitude it must always regard toward states forming part of it. Liberia as a member of the League deeply regrets the decision of the conference which applied to a fully sovereign state the rules of territories subject to protectorate or mandate." Loophole Was Made The note further insists that the fundamental principles of international law on which the Covenant is based have been disregarded by the Traffic in Arms Conference, as well as Liberia's efforts to carry out League's high undertakings. ed making the loophole where countries which were not represented at the conferences which applied to a ful-wanted included in forbidden zones, could accept the treaty without humiliation. ECONOMIC NECESSITY IS GIVEN AS REASON CHILDREN QUIT SCHOOL Declare More And Better Educational Facilities And Higher Wages. For Parents Are Needed. NEW YORK, Aug. 26.—Economic necessity and warning interest in school work stand out as the two chief reasons why the majority of young people leave school to seek industrial employment, according to a report on "The Employment of Young Persons in the United States." Just made public here Saturday by the National Industrial Conference Board. "The whole problem of child labor as it presents itself in the United States today," according to the report, "is not a problem to be held by legislation alone. Legislation prohibiting the employment of young persons will not oblate the necessity of their support. The real problem is partly one of raising the earning power and standard of living of the wage earner, and thereby becoming the problem of further increasing the efficiency of production. "To a great extent also the problem is one of providing more and better educational facilities; more care for those children, particularly in rural districts, not having easy access to schools, and better educational methods for those children who become discontented with school because they feel that school has little more of value to offer them and are impatient to try their hand at a real job." The survey says that, contrary to general ingression, by far the great majority of children who work are not employed in the manufacturing industries, but are working on farms. REFUSES TO SERVE NEGRO PATROLMAN, IS ARRESTED CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 26. —The refusal of William Martin (white) to serve James Patton, a colored patrolman in his restaurant, has resulted in the arrest of the former for the violation of the Ohio Civil Rights Act. Patrolman Patton was in full uniform and with a white brother, Officer Berry, when he was asked into the kitchen of Clarke's restaurant at 55th and Woodland, to eat. He immediately arrested the manager, Martin Martin was released, however, by the lieutenant of the Third precinct station and Patton reprimanded for arresting him. Patton consulted the District Prosecuting Attorney, who upheld his action and issued a warrant for Martin's arrest. IN PRISON FOR 4 YEARS FREE 18 HOURS BEFORE JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. August 26—All within eighteen hours, Leroy Jones, colored, a free lad, committed larceny, was arrested, tried, sentenced to four years in the State prison, and placed in confinement. It was the speediest course of justice on record in the state of Missouri. The boy was accused of taking AWB hogs from a farmer near Clarkville about 5 a.m. on Wednesday. He was apprehended in Louisiana 2 hours after he had sold the porkkets, taken to Plowing Green, arranged in the city, and taken to the penitentiary. Years in the penitentiary. He was immediately sent to Jefferson City, arriving there at eleven o'clock Wednesday night. GIVES $25,000 BUILDING FOR AGED AND ORPHANS DURHAM, N. C. August 26—What is regarded as the largest contribution ever made by a local colored man for charity among his people is the donation of property valued at $25,000 to the interdenominational "Alliance" for the care of orphans and orphans. This gift was made last week by J. C. Scarborough. BALTIMORE POST OFFICE GETS COLORED FOREMAN BALTIMORE, Md., August 21 — Aaron M. Cummings, former senior clerk at the Falls Station of the Baltimore post-office, has been promoted by Postmaster Benjamin F. Wolper, Jr., to the position of foreman at the Falls Station, which is the largest U. S. sub-station in the Baltimore district. Mr. Cummings, who has been in the postal service for more than thirty years, won his way to the promotion by efficient service from one post to another in the Baltimore office. He enters upon the duties of a new post with an expert clerk of the postal commission and a long acquaintance with the 100 clerks and carriers now assigned under his direction at the Falls Station. The new appointee is a brother of the deceased Harry S. Cummings, the first Negro councilman ever elected by Baltimore voters. ARIZ HAS RECORD COTTON CROP BUT FEW LABORERS PHOENIX, Ark.

CHICAGO CALLED THE CITY OF MISSING GIRLS CHICAGO, Aug. 26 — Mothers, fathers and other relatives of 136 girls are imploring the police to find the missing ones. From January 1 to July 31, this year, police records show that 594 girls dropped out of sight. There were many others, but of them there is no record. Of the number on the police plotters, 458 have been found or voluntarily returned. Some remain away a week, some five and six months, and many of them are wrecks. Especial warning is given by the police against the "motor car shelters" who specialize in picking up girls for a ride. FIND COSTLY TIMEPIECE HAVERSTRAW. N. Y. August 26 —Two colored laborers excavating Monday in the cellar of a hotel under construction here, found a valuable gold watch hidden under a large stone. In spite of the fact that the time- piece seemed to have been hidden for years it was still in good con- dition. Jewelers appraised the watch at $750. On the wajch was the inscription, "Russell Saber, Mid- land Chemical Company, Dubuque, lowe." ASK MEMORIAL FOR FRIEND OF NEGROES CHICAGO, Ill. August 26—A letter has been received by Rt. Rev. A. J Carey, bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal church, from Attorney Patrick H. O'Donnell, suggesting that the Negroes give a memorial in honor of their life long friend, Victor F Lawson, veteran newspaper man, who was buried here Monday. The letter was as follows: "My Dear Bishop: 'Your people have just lost a truly great friend in the death of Victor F Lawson. It has been my good fortune to know his friendship and charity toward your race, but the world does not know how severely this loss falls upon your people. 'His good work toward the Negro had the secrecy that is enjoined by Christian faith upon those who give, I would suggest that it is befitting his life and the gratitude that is in the black race that a memorial be given by your people to honor this great friend and Christian man.'"

That party is largely composed of the least cultured and most conservative portion of the electorate, and it finds its chief strength in the Free State and the Transvaal, where a policy of native repression has, from a time long before the Union, been advocated and on many occasions, carried into action. The Free State has many apologists who declare that in native affairs its past policy has been enforced and broad-minded; on paper, indeed, it has, but in practice the native has had no better chances in the Free State than he has in the Transvaal. NEGRO HISTORY ASS'N. TO OBSERVE ANNIVERSARY WASHINGTON, D. C., August 26—On the 9th and 10th of September, 1925, the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History will celebrate its Tenth Anniversary in this city. Coming to the end of the tenth year of this first systematic effort to embody the civilization of the Negro, the management has invited special attention to this occasion. It marks an epoch in the development of the Negro. The race has been gradually taught that no group can make much progress without preserving a record from which its program for the future can be worked out of the wisdom of those only with an appreciation of the failures and successes of the past. Consequently, the aim of the Association has always been to adhere to the new plan of presenting the Negro himself to the world as reflected in what he himself has thought and felt and attempted and accomplished. In this way the Association has secured the support of both races who appreciate the value of saving the records of the Negro that the race may not become a negligible factor in the thought of the world, the programs and orators, taken from the programs of education, business, professional and church life, will discuss the past and present phases of Negro world achievements, pointing out just what the race may hope to accomplish in the coming years. BEAUTY SHOPS ENSLAVING MALES TOO, EXPERT SAYS CHICAGO; Ill, August 26—Special—With youth becoming softer and more effeminate every day, and the crop of "drug store cowboys," constantly increasing, what will pass for men in 1835, perhaps sooner, will be painting their faces, rouging their tips and rolling their long stockings. Already they are manicuring their nails to the point where they can do no work, even if they had the inclination. They are marcelling their hair, wearing bracelets, and aping women in many ways. Tails information comes straight from the "American Cosmetics" Society, the members of which are working for heavy business from much in the beauty shops. "Beauty is as essential to business men as to women," said one of the delegates in a speech. There are as many ways of losing money as of making it. If you dress to attract attention you will get it. |<) LETDTHE ARGUS BE YOUR SHOPPING GUIDE. IF YOU DO NOT. SEE YOUR MERCHANT'S ADVERTISEMENT IN THE ARGUS, ASK HIM-THE REASON. .

Dress and others of the University of Oklahoma at Newark) Lesson for August 30 PAUL AND THE PHILIPPIAN JAILER LESSON TENT—Acts 10:16-40. GOLDEN TENT—Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved—Acts 16:31. PRIMARY TOPIC—The Story of an Earthquake JUNIOR TOPIC-Conversion of the Jailer INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC- Conversion of the Jailer YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC -The Gospel in Philippi. 1. Paul and Silas in Jail (vv. 16-26). 1. The Occasion (vv. 16-24). As the missionaries went out from day to day to the place of prayer they were accosted by a young woman possessed by a spirit of divination. She was owned by a syndicate of men who derived large gains from her goodnessing. This act of the woman became a great annoyance to Paul, who in the name of Jesus Christ commanded the evil spirit to come out. The evil spirit immediately obeyed. When the demon was cast out of the maled, her supernatural power was gone, therefore, the source of revenue was dried up. This was so exasperating to her owners that they had Paul and Silas arranged before the magistrates, on the false charge of changing their customs. This was playing the hypocrite for it was not custom, but illicit gains that had been interfered with. There is always trouble ahead when you interfere with wrong business. Without any chance to defend themselves Paul and Silas were stripped and beaten by the angry mole and then remanded to jail, and were made fast by stocks in the inner prison. 2. Their Behavior in Jail (v. 25). They were praying, and singing hymns to God. It seems quite natural that they should pray under such conditions, but to all hymns is astonishing to all who have not come into possession of the peace of God through Christ. Even with their backs incarcerated and smarting their feet fast in stocks, compelling a most painful position in the wringon darkness of that liner prison, and with the morrow fitted with extreme uncertainty, their hearts went up to God in gratitude. 3. Their Deliverance (v. 26). The Lord wrought deliverance by sending a great earthquake which opened the prison doors and removed the chains from all hands. The earthquake was not a mere coincidence, but a miracle. Earthquakes do not throw all belated doors open, and unclasp the gates from men's hands. 4. The Conversion of the Jailer (v. 27, 31). The jailer's sympathy did not go out very far for the prisoners, for after they were made secure he went to sleep. The earthquake suddenly aroused him. He was about to kill himself, whereupon Paul assured him that the prisoners were all safe. This was too much for him. What he had heard of their preaching, and now what he experienced, caused him to come as a humble acquiler after salvation. He was convicted of sin and felt the need of a Saviour. Paul clearly pointed out the way to be saved. "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ." The proof that the jailer was saved is therefore: 1. Transformation From Brutality to Tenderness (v. 33). He who a little while ago could with impunity lay on the cruel lashes is now disposed to wash and molly the wounds of the prisoners. 2. Confession of Christ in Baptism (v. 33). Those who have really been conceived of sin and have experienced the saving grace of God delight to confess their faith. In Him under whatever circumstances. 3. He Set Meat Before Them (v. 34). 4. His Whole Household Baptized (v. 35). III. The Magistrates Humbled (vv. 35-40). 1. Orders to Release the Prisoners (v. 2520). The earthquake brought fear upon the magistrates which moved them to give leave for the prisoners to go. 2. Paul's Refusal to Go (v. 37). The ground of his refusal was that their rights us Roman citizens had been violated. They demanded public vindication. The magistrates were guilty of serious offense. Paul was willing to suffer for Christ's sake, but he used the occasion to show them that persecuting men who preached the gospel was an offense against the law of God and man. Grace and Glory Grace and glory differ but as bud and blossom. What is grace but glory begins? What is glory but grace perfected? - John Mason.

COLORED LEADERSHIP IN PHILADELPHIA SESQU-CENTENNIAL RECOGNIZED PHILIPPINIA), Pa., Aug. 26—Tianxi the great "grant" mission to mark the one hundred and fifty years of American Independence, for some time delayed, seem to be actively taking share in this, the Quaker City. The selection of a citizen to represent such participation, and activities as may be developed with the colored group has just been announced. Much guessing and speculation as a preliminary to the selection was but natural. In fact, many of the "brother" did not play a waiting game but appointed themselves committees, individual representatives, and what not to formally advise the Sesquil Centennial Association officials as to who should take charge of affairs so far as the colored people in America were concerned. Happily, however, the President of the association, Mayor W. Fredland fordrick, having charge of the celebration for which millions of dollars are to be expended, just recently notified the Hon. John C. Asbury, president of the Keystone Cooperative Bank of Philadelphia, that it was a pleasure to appoint him as chairman of the committee "to represent the colored race." The recognition of the Negro as a factor in the celebration is fully appreciated and the selection of Mr. Asbury is equally justified. He represents a progressive group in Philadelphia's colored population and is well known nationally. His record as a member of the state legislature, his pioneer service in business enterprises, particularly as chairman of the Keystone Aid Society, an insurance company he was credible. Mr. Asbury is also a well-respected wife and city solicitor hope from 1917 to 1921. In fraternal collections his activities are akin to the morning dew. They cover prominent connection with the Masuicie, Eiks, Odh Follows and more. His interest in welfare and education is indicated by his responsibilities for the Downing School and the Merry Hospital and School for Nurses. So, the colored people are well represented by a leader of this type in the celebration marking the century and half of American Independence. Who will be the associates of Hon. Asquy in executing the plans and directing the program of Negro participation in this mammoth exposition? The characters are always courting, despite the affair the Asquy has undertaken is but a few days old. The hope is expressed on all sides, however, that embodiment of the outline of the general program, the selection of first-class ambassadors to head the necessary burrows and securing the co-operation of leaders throughout Try The Famous Llyra Hair Beautifier If your Hairdresser Canno.

So far it is understood that several national organizations will plan to meet in Philadelphia in 1926 as all roads will lead to the Sesquit-Centennial Exhibitions, displays of art, manufacture and invention will form part of the attraction, that will make Pennsylvania the center of attraction for tourists and visitors the coming year. Mayor Kendrick and his appointee, Mr. Ashbury, can do much toward making the participation of colored Americans creditable and comfortable.

In fact we had almost forgotten him. But now here he comes in defending the rebel side of the Civil War, declaring that the Southerners did not light to keep slavery, and persuading colored people of Georgia to give money to help build a monument to love and Jackson and the others of the rebel armenes, who, if they had succeeded, would have fixed up matters so that today Ben Davis, instead of editing the Atlanta Dependent and getting easy money from the lodge "brethren" would be picking cotton for one of the grandchildren of those rebels for one suit of clothes a year, and a weekly allowance of one pork or fish and one handful of salt. If those rebels had succeeded Ben Davis never would have been able to write this foolish advice to the Negroes of Georgia. The successful rebels would have built monuments, of course, but with out Ben's advice. But because Grant and Lincoln and 200,000 Negro soldiers in the Civil War had more sense than Davis shows in this advice. Ben has been privileged to handle a great deal of money in the last 20 or 30 years; and the Negroes of Georgia have been privileged to lose heavily. Ben wants every Negro in Georgia and everywhere else for that matter, to give fifty cents each to help erase a rebel monument at Stone Mountain, in Georgia, to Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and the other rebels, who, he says "were brave and loyal to the cause they felt to be right." Because a fellow sticks to the "cause" feels to be right is reason for building monument to him. We should build monuments to people who are proven to be right to be right and whose cause is proven to be just. If we build monuments to those who "felt" that they were right, we shall have to build monuments to cannibals, witch-doctors, witch-burners, slave-drivers, Georgia lynchers, and (maybe) even to some surrendering Negroes like Ben Davis. But let us quote a bit from Ben, so that you can get his logic direct: the white man did not fight to keep us in slavery as he did to keep the right of a state to speak. . . . We have forgotten those whom we thought were our enemies, and whom we forged even the motivation of the war. the memories of those days." . . . He says the southern white man fought the secede" from the United States, but he doesn't know that he wanted to secede not that he could keep Negroes in slavery—and then Ben says that the Negroes should "forget even the memories of those days", etc., but that they should give fifty cents each to carve a great monument on the face of Stone, Mountain, so that the rebels can forever remember and be reminded of "those days" and so that the yet unborn posterity of those rebels may be reminded that their forbears not only fought to keep Negroes in slavery, but that they also built a great monument to the effort to signify to all future generations the considered the cause right. The Negroes must fight the oppressor remembers, and the Negro under the advice of Ben Davis must help to pay for the memory. Now, Ben Davis is simply remarkable from the standpoint of honesty, and the way in which he handles other people's money, and if you do not believe it, just ask the Odd Fellows, or better still have the books of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of Georgia for the last twenty years brought out (If they can be found) and audited. If this were done, the honesty and honor of Ben Davis would be the subject of comment throughout the nation. Such a man as that is, of course, eminently fitted to advise poor colored people to spread their half dollars. We have never yet been able to get the vote of Georgia, or of any other wxrelled state, to put the name and likeness of Frederick Douglass one of the greatest men America ever produced. In the Hall of Fame. And yet history has proven that Douglass was right and that Lee and all his kind were wrong. Have you yet heard of Ben Davis campaigning to get Atlanta whites to give their votes to honor Frederick Douglass? Why? There is no big money behind any effort to honor Douglass. Truth, honor, history, past, present and future are on the side of Douglass, but the millions of money are on the side of Leg and Jackson and Jefferson Davis, and Ben Davis was never dull-witted where money was concerned. The Negroes of Georgia and the South do not need to oppose or fight the effort of white people to build monuments to the leaders of their "lost cause," but there is no reason why these Negroes should allow Ben Davis to lead them into spending their money on such a cause. Ben has already led them into enough "lost causes." The best thing for colored people to do in reference to monuments is to carefully attend to own business, keeping their mouths shut and their pocket-books closed. We have tried to think in the past that Ben Davis in spite of his well known reliability in all money matters, yet had a dependable devotion to this race's interests. If nothing was to be lost by devotion to those interests, but when he advises his race to dishonor the memory of 200,000 black men who fought, bled and died to free them and to build monuments to those who butchered these black soldiers like dogs at Port Pillow and in the swamps of Virginia; we begin to doubt whether Davis can give devotion to his race where no money is involved. Let Ben Dayis and the rebels build their own monument in Georgia. We have yet to build a monument to John Brown in New York, and to Frederick Douglass in Maryland. BRYAN'S THEOLOGY By WILLIAM FICKENS For The Associated Nerro Press for the associated negatives. We do not care perplexity and slowly all of Bryan's last speech which he had planned to deliver to the jury in Dayton, Tenn. As a piece of eloquence and appeal to the sentiment of those of moderate thinking, it is worthy of the "Commoner." As a piece of logic, it is characteristic of those who assume a certain basis as fact, who start from certain very important premises as beyond question and above proof, as about the conclusions of the argument, as the conclusions which this underlined basis and these involuate assumed propositions will support. But as a piece of strategy for getting his case accepted in the court of high intelligence and unraid reason, Bryan's speech would prove a flat failure. For example, he argues in effect that science is considered all wrong, because it is not yet omniscient; because it must do some assuming and cannot prove and demonstrate every proposition it ever made. The "commoner" did not assume that truth would have been turned back on him, if any man with brains were arguing the other side, and that the call for demonstration and ultimate proof would literally destroy, not only Christian theology, but almost any religion. Certainly the Bible of the Christians must be accepted, on faith, if at all, and cannot get by if the scientific method is called for and if proofs beyond faith and inspiration and authority are called for. As an unanswered speech, Bryan's would certainly "go across" to almost any church congregation. But in a court of public, where somebody else "in say something on the other side," Bryan would have lost his own case through the very severity of the standard with which he endeavored to entrap the opponent. It can readily be admitted that about all "knowledge" is relative. But in a court of law, where, of course, "inspiration" would not be admitted as an inviolate assumption, the writer of "The Origin of Species" would have a thousand times more of evidence to offer for his position than the writer of "Genesis" can offer for his. If in the court of common reason neither could absolutely prove his case, certainly Darwin would cite many more facts and make many more demonstrations than Moses offers or makes. Relativity is a law the mind, outside of pulpits, and so be more reasonable and the better evidence case would be "proven." The refuge of religiousism is yet in faith. Bryan's atheist, his opponent would have effectually destroyed his own defenses,—before any human bar where his fundamental assumptions could not be admitted as fact. But we should not forget that the importance of this case, for the common citizen, does not rest in the issues of whether Darwin or Bryan is proven to be right; but in the question—whether either 'one of them should be allowed to make his religion and his standard a limitation on the curriculum of the free American schools. From the standpoint of this question, we should not care a fig which was right, Moses or Darwin, the ancient or the modern—but we should take care that neither Moses nor Darwin, Bryan nor Darrow, should be allowed to circumscribe the liberty of public teaching in America by the limits of his particular philosophy or religion—or non-religion. This case cannot settle the cosmic question or the origin of life, but it can settle the question of the freedom of the American public school. That should be settled against Tennessee and the contentions of the late William Jennings Bryan. AVOID USE OF LYE Do not use lye to clear clogged drains. Boiling water and washing soda are much more effective, as lye is apt to combine with the grasse in a hard soap, while soda will cut right through the grasse. Once a week put two or three tablespoons of soda at the outlet and wash down with boiling water. This will keep the drain pipes beautifully clear and they are not apt to clog.

Lindell 5708 AS ALMOST everybody knows, this is one of the commonest of diseases, more or fewer cases being present almost constantly. Wherever insufficient attention is given to drainage, water supply and general sanitation, there typhoid fever is apt to be prevalent. It most frequently attacks young adults or those who are mature, but no period of life and neither sex is immune to it. Essentially it is inflammation of certain groups of small glands in the intestine and its supporting band, the mesentery, and of the spleen. The germ which causes it is known as the bacillus typhiosis and it may be found in the evacuations from the bowel. It lives in water and grows with great rapidity unless it is destroyed by suitable antiseptics. It gets into water that is used for washing, drinking or cooking and finally gets back into the human body. Possibly it is carried by the air and may be taken in by the nose or mouth and it is very frequently introduced by milk or other food, solid or liquid, which may have been contaminated by it. Typhoid carriers are people who carry the germs about with them, perhaps for yeas, and do not themselves seem to be injured by them, but by infecting materials, particularly food with which they come in contact, they may transmit the disease to any number of people who happen to be sensitive to it. When these germs reach the intestine of those who are sensitive, they attack the glands which were mentioned as the essential seat of the disease and, during the subsequent ten days to three weeks, the disease is incubating or developing. The patient may feel rather miserable, but may be able to keep about and frequently promises himself he will be all right tomorrow. But now his temperature begins to mount up, he has a chill, and every day during the following week his temperature rises steadily. After this it may drop a little, mounting up again toward the close of the second week. Then it begins to go down very gradually and in two weeks more has reached normal again. During all this period inflammatory changes in the glands are progressing, the spleen gets very large and soft, the glands in the intestine swell and break and sores or ulcers are formed, from which, when formed, decomposed and putrid materials proceed. This is very poisonous and more or less of it is usually absorbed and carried by the blood to all parts of the body. On the surface of the abdomen there is usually a rash of small red spots, the bowels become distended with gas, perhaps to an enormous extent. The patient suffers from loss of appetite, heart weakness, rapid pulse and frequently with great disturbance of the brain. The diagnosis is often made by subjecting a drop of the blood to a test known as Widal's test. Vaccination with a suitable vaccine furnishes an excellent means of protection from the disease, and is practiced as a routine measure. Protection by vaccination rests three years and is therefore of the greatest value to all who may be exposed to this disease by out-of-door life.
