Bell Of New York In Meeting At Stockholm, Tells Clergymen From Every Nation Stand Of The Colored Man. German Deloitte Predicts Catastrophe Unless The Church Becomes An Agency Of Reconciliation. STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Sept. 2. The question of race relations occupied the Council at the Universal Christian College on the Life Work held herg last week. Clergy men who were in attendance from all corners of the earth, discussed the problem from both a national and international standpoint.

We refused to be considered as an inferior race that cannot be trusted after dark. We do not desire racial amalgamation and are just as anxious to preserve our racial integrations. Our racial operation. The Conference was much moved by the colored man's address and gave evidences of hearty agreement. The German delegates, however were opposed to the social application of Christianity. Following Dr. Bell, Miss Fan, a Chinese delegate, spoke on racial inclusion in the race. She displaced the race's feeling of superiority. She declared it would be fatal any longer to overlook the solving of China's problem. One Law For All Men Dr. Sidney Gulick of New York said: "We believe in one humanity comprising all nations and races. We believe in one immutable moral law for all mankind, obedience. We believe that man is the source of the nations to abolish the war system and to establish a new system of international relations, based on reason, righteousness and good will." Gurwesh Munt Coorate Sir Willoughby Dickinson of London in the course of his remarks declared that there "was hardly a spot in the world where the seeds of peace had taken root." "On the contrary," he continued, "the world is ripe for war; human passions are rising and hardly anyone is called Christian civilization can be made really Christian, it will go the way of other civilizations, long since decadent. To fulfill its re-sponsibility the churches must act together." Dr. Lynn Hough of Detroit followed with the declaration that provincial church cannot be the instrument of the progress of God for international purposes. Richard Richter of Berlin said that "unless the churches act as the agency of reconciliation and peace on the basis of a better understanding and mutual esteem, a further catastrophe cannot be avoided."

Surprised When Indicted. Believed A Frame-Up. Preston-News Journal NEW ORLEANS, La. Sept. 2.—All of the 33 persons indicted by a federal grand jury were Thursday on charges of assault on the Port of Orleans, Louisiana, and burglary.

Cohen Issues Statement Mr. Cohen issued a statement Friday saying that he was "as much surprised as any person in New Orleans when I heard of the indictment," and adding "I was at my summer home at Bay St. Louis when I was notified of it and at once returned to the city." He terminated his brief statement with a strong assurance of vindication. It is said that certain southern white politicians have been greatly arraigned since the appointment of Mr. Cohen to the position he now holds by President Harding and have made various efforts to cust him during his incumbency.

Joseph Johnson of the New Orleans police department; Corporal John Conrad and Patrolman Paul Gilmore. Alonzo Patterson and Arthur Battisella, alleged heads of an extensive run running organization.

There was a sudden and brief pause followed by a burst of fast and vigorous harmony, which set the four scores of little bodies into a veritable sea of motion that was striking to its beams and spottest of perfection. Those dancers went up in a mighty ovation to the unexcelled dancers of a creation of their own people the "Charleston." "No wonder," some one declared, that the Negro is called the master of rhythm."

That night at seven o'clock, Mrs. Heathwood was awakened from her slumber by her husband calling to her lovingly, "Wife dear, where is the boy, and what is the trouble? Are you ill? You are never asleep this time of evening. And your eyes—how red they are." All this he said under one breath. "O Fred! 'Our boy, our boy!' This was all she said. "What—what is the matter with him. What about him?" questioned the father, now removing a bundle from under his arm. "Here, sit down and tell me all about it. Has he left us? Now dear, don't worry." With a tender pat on her head he assisted her in sitting in a chair near at hand. "Why this afternoon when I called him to dinner he talked to me as if he were my guardian. I simply can't understand him; why he told me he no longer cared to study and attend college, but wanted to see the world and spend his time in York, O, what shalt he do? Oh! Oh!" Well, Matilda darling, don't worry. Only last night, when we were sitting right here in this room planning some way to complete his college education, I told you I expected it all; just think only fifty years ago, when I first met you, we knew nothing of education; why we were in utter darkness and here our boy has an opportunity but will not grasp it." "Yes. Fred, and just think—from a babe, we gave him our tender care and trolled not for ourselves but for his future. Oh, oh, no more happiness, but perpetual sorrow." The lights illuminating the well furnished room portraised a mother, grief-worn and sad, wiping from her eyes tears that wrote. "L'amour dune mere" (the love of a mother) as they flowed down her cheeks, while just across from this head-bent, sorrowful mother, sat a father of sympathy for his dear mother and love for his with legs crossed and wearing oiled but neat blue overlaid ruler in the pocket of the left leg, doping if true father; by the sweat of his brow, and made a comfortable house for his family and had given more than the average boy desired; as a spendthrifty girl, had been given more money, fine clothes, luxuries and above all, parental love, but all this was useless. The mother broke the silence with, "Yes, I knew it all. After we put him into society and he began attending these social functions. I knew what would happen—as you know the true old saying—Books and girls or books and lavish expenditures don't mix, but probably some day, when his money is gone and his friends have forsaken him, he and probably return us more than ever, and probably return to the same deat. I know you are tired and hungry, so I must prepare your supper while you clean yourself." With a forced smile, following a caressing kiss on the forehead, "mother" went into the kitchen while "father" went to the bath room to make himself presentable. It was not long before husband and wife were seated at the table enjoying a very palatable meal. Nothing more was said of the "Wayward Boy" at the table as the father knew the heavy load on his dear wife's heart, so he introduced the discussion of the wedding of his wife's friend which they were to attend the next night. Sister Susan Read Chapter 3 next week) FOR THE CONTEST The legend that the Negro race had touched America even before the days of Columbus rests upon a certain basis of facts: First, that the race, hence, clear, manifestable, occurs in Indian carvings, among the relics of the Mound Builders and in Mexican temples and also there were evidences of Negro customs among the Indians in their religious worship. Second—The chief cultural influence of the "Negro in America was exerted by a Negro colony in Mexico, most likely from Teotihuacan and Tuxitxn, who may have been instrumental in establishing the city of Mexico. Third—In 1540, in Quirren, Mexico, there was a Negro priest, and in 1542, there were at Germano, Mexico, three Brotherhoods of the True Cross of Spanishards, one of which was composed of one and one hundred from 1535 to 1545. Negroes had come to form part of the household of the weaker colonists. The Negroes were beginning to form the hung of the population. Nufla de Olaana, a Negro, was with Balboa when he discovered the Pacific Ocean, and afterwards thirty Negroes helped Balboa direct the work over 500 Indians in transporting the material for his ships across the mountains to the South Sea. In 1839, Negroes accompanied De Soto and one of them stayed among the Indians in Alabama and became the first settler from the old world. In 1855, in San Juan de Chile, a free Negro own land in the town De THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS FRIDAY, SEPT. 4, 1925 split the propaganda of 400 years, survives as a clear and important instance of Negro leadership in explorations: William Alexander Leldsdroff was the most distinguished Negro pioneer of California and at one time lived in the largest house in San Francisco. He owned the first steamship sailing in San Francisco Bay, and was a prominent business man, a member of the City Council and treasurer and member of the school committee. In 1845 he became U. S. Vice Consul. Matthew O. Henson was with Commodore Piary as assistant, on his second trip to the North Pole and Nicaragua in 1887, which leaves Henson, the only living being living why he stood at the North Pole.

COLORED WRITERS ENRICH AMERICAN LITERATURE COLORED WRITERS ENRICH AMERICAN LITERATURE In an editorial on "A Negro Literary Renaissance: The New York World, of August 21, commends as follows: August 26, comments as follows: Since 1920 there has come forward a group remarkable for its vigor, originality and all flavor. In *Herbion* it includes Jesse Farner and Walter White, whose names are *The Herbion* and *The Fire in the Flu*. In the short story it has produced *Deer Tamer*. It counts such poets as Claude McKay, the Jamaica-born author of *Harleen Shadows*, and *Jo of the Spinning prize winners* - *Course Cullen and Langston Hughes*. These and others are gaining the Negro a recognized place in contemporary letters. A race, whose American history still a phenomenon also was exclusively rural have been given the stimulation and cultural advantages of the metropolis. They have now a number of their own intellectual, social and financial leaders to guide them. The response to the new environment already striking all over the United States, titerious arms made with Barbish, Island Harves and Nathaniel Dert; the sides with Tunal Rowan—have writened Negroes, but perhaps Swimming Pool, Club House, Swings, Refreshments.

THE JESTAMERE John "Bowers and Marguerite De La Motte head the cast in "Flattery" at the Jestamere Theatre this Saturday. The attraction for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday will be "Kiss Me Again," an Erant Lubishte production. It is a highly amusing story of a Parisian wife who left the guarded confines of marriage to seek romance, but soon found that she yearned again for the arms of her philandering husband—more desirable than that he was finding pleasures away from her. Marie the distress, the tattous and highly-stressed, who loses some of her aplomb when she discovers that her husband, played by Monte Blue, is quite pleased to give her up to another. That phase of the triangle bursts up towards Loulu's vanity with all the peaceful effects of a bomb and leaves her prey to a thousand demons of feaulous, convinced that her husband has a paramour of his own. To help the situation, Gastons manner suggests that the beautiful Girl, portrayed by Clara Bow, is consolable, her absence the Battling's absence. The result is a fast-moving story, funny in the extreme. Eva Novak and William Fairbanks will be featured in 'The Battling Fool' on Wednesday. The attraction for next Thursday and Friday will be Constance Talalayo Antonio Moreno in "Learning to Love." It is one of their best comedy efforts.

Adventure in the heart of the snow covered Canadian tundra with brute men and brute-beasts. The main story is closely knitted with the lives of those hard-bitten men and women of the North. There are Indian trappers, hunters, dog-teams, wolf packs, in fact every phase of an existence at once aluring, adventurous and mystic. Agnes Ayres in "Worldly Goods" will be the Wednesday feature. It is the story of a girl who thought she was getting the world's prize husband and fetched he was only the booby prize.

THE OLYMPIA "The Lost World" will be featured at the Olympia Theatre this Saturday and Sunday. Love, romance, adventure as well as education are embodied in the amazing film, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Father Time breaks every sleeping record in all literature—or screenplay. He soars away for 10,000,000 years. In other words, in a certain spot in the wilds of South America it remains stationary for 100,000 centuries. A party of screen adventurers including Bessie Love, Wallace Beerey, Lewis Stone and Lloyd Hughes, discover this land that Time forgot. They find strange and fearsome prehistoric dinosaurs of the Raptor Age still alive—looking for fresh meat. Miss Loye is almost caught by one. But Messrs. Stone, Beerey and Hughes rescue her just in time, and it is on that rescue that the tense love theme of the picture hinges.

LOUIS RAVES OVER REHEARSALS OF "THAIS" It is gratifying to the Day Nursery Organization, the promoters who are bending every energy to put over the Christian Drama "Thais." to hear from every gathering complimentary remarks about the rehearsals of this master play. Applicants are still seeking parts and Mr. Clarence E. Muse, the director, has been put into the difficult position of trying to decide between the many artists applying as to the proper person for the parts. He amusingly said, "While passing along the streets it is humour to hear the many different pronunciations of the title of the play. In many incidents there are heated arguments as to the correct pronunciation; so here is" the authority, "Thais" is pronounced as (Tie-ease). "Many have inquired about the story. It deals with the Christian Era. The events are laid around the city of Alexandria and concerns one who is called a perfect woman, a courtesan, who rules the city of Alexandria in sin and vice. Her name is Thais A matrimonial comedy which proves that husbands aren't as bad as they're supposed to be—they're worse. The story of a wife who made the mistake of believing everything her husband told her. Before marriage he gave her a diamond ring—after marriage the only rings were under her eyes. THE WORLD'S CUTEST HEART BREAKER That's Constance in this snappy comedy hit of a girl who learned how to love from Cupid himself. Roll all of Constance's biggest hits into one and you'll have a good idea of what this latest triumph is like. Funny from the start and it hits on high long-before it ends and stays there!

Far into the desert lives a group of hermits or monks who are constantly praying for the deliverance of Thais. In this group there is one heroic character, Damiel, the father of the hermits who forces his way into the city of Alexandria to Thais, depending solely upon the spirit of Christ to support him, and after many tearful situations, both humorous and tragic, he finally succeeds in converting Thais into the ways of Christ, but acquiring, in acquaintance and compelling, that even he is saved of her, and in her absence he is come by her charms. He is about to yield to the call of the "dlesh" Thais, now a White Sister, calls upon the spirit and as her soul is lifted to Heaven, redeemed and purified, we find Damiel her minister of the gospel, completing the story of the "sinner who became a saint, and a saint who sinned." —Adv.

Also Amateur Vodvil Contest competing singers. F. D. Perkins, critic of the New York Herald Tribune, asserts that the audience was estimated to be the third largest of the entire season of Stadium concerts. Mr. Perkins in his review of, the event calls Miss Anderson's "a voice in a hundred thousand" and continues. "A notable feature in Miss Anderson's singing was its entire naturalness; all that she had to do, apparently, was to sing, without any need of apparent effort to fill the Stadium spaces. In high and low notes, there was a full, rich quality that carried far; the singer had no more trouble, it seemed in singing at the Stadium than in singing at Aeolian Hall, but seemed more at her ease, in smoother voice, than in Aeolian Hall auditorium. "A storm of applause followed the Donizetti number, very meritoriously sung, and the Midsummer Anderson song Woodman Terry's The Amber as an encore. But expressively she seemed most at home in the three spiritful scheduled for her second appearance, Harry T. Burleigh's Deep River and 'Heaven' and J. Rosamond Johnson's 'Song of the Heart,' in a performance characterized by what might be called expressive simplicity." The New York Times reviewer said Miss Anderson made an "excellent impression" and found her "endowed by nature with a voice of unusual compass, color and dramatic capacity."

Petitions bearing the names of several hundred persons voice their sentiment. The two umpires here received the final notices Wednesday that "The league has decided to use no more-colored mumps this season." So far as St. Louis is concerned, fans here have never seen umpires for Colored games show any better ability their Donaldson, Jamison and perhaps a couple of others. The fans here want and will demand that the game here be a 100 percent race, enterprise and umpires must be developed along with the players if we are to promote a race institution. Billy Donaldson left for Kansas City Donaldson to visit the series between the Stars and archs. He may return here to officiate during the final series with Memphis. C. J. Jamson went to Chicago and go from there to Jacksonville, Florida for the winter. GOLF CLUB ORGANIZED A Negro Golf Club was organized at Pine Street Y. - M. C.

C., Sept. 2.—In a communication just received here by friends of the popular Race soprano, Lillian Evans Tibbs of this city, who is now studying in Paris, it was learned that she has been engaged to sing in opera at Nice and Monte Carlo. The young artist left for Europe, and this age to pursue her vocal training under foreign masters. She is the first colored singer to be engaged to sing in grand opera abroad. You can get more out of a man by taking Idm as mature made him than by trying to make him over. The St. Louis Stars left for Kansas City Friday to engage the Champion Monarchs in a series of five games. The Stars have a lead of five and one half game and expect to pinch the pennant for the second half, before they return home, to play the final series of the season with the Memphis Red Sox. The Monarchs, even if they should win all five of the games, cannot pass the Stars; but the St. Louis boys left with the confidence that they can take the series. If they win two games, they would have to lose all five to Memphis to be beaten in the race. Of course this is out of the question. So the fans might, as well get ready for, those Laegue Championship games after September 16. Argus To Get Returns The office will be open on Sunday eve The St. Louis Stars tightened their hold on the first place in the National League by making a clean sweep of the series with the Detroit Stars. Saturday's score was 7 to 4. Sunday's wild affair gained 16 to 15. Monday the score was 7 to 4 and Tuesday the Stars went over by a 6 to 5 score. The final game was won 8 to 6 in things being ordered at 5 docket to allow the team to win the evening train for home. As Kansas City won three-of-the-five games played in Chicago while the Stars were wining life from Detroit, the local team gained four full games on Kansas City and are heading by 5 and one half games. The St. Louis Stars defeated the Detroit Stars 7 to 4 in the opener at Stars Park Saturday and gained another full game on the Kansas City Monarchs, as they lost 4 to 3 to Rubie Foster's team on that day. Brown pitched a good game after relieving Miller in the second inning as he held the opposition to five hits and one run in eight innings. The Detroit team started off with three runs in the first inning when they connected for two singles and a double and with the aid of an error amassed an early lead. The local Stars made it 3 to 2 in the fourth, Bob, Redus and Wells drove out singles and Barnes doubled. The Cubs added a run in the fifth. Fryer walked and was sacked to second and scored on Smith's eight field single. That was for them. The Stars won the game in the fifth when they rounded Kenyon off the mound and Frank Bell walked three men to force in what proved to be the winning run after the Stars had scored two runs on a double by Bell, Wells walk-and-singles by Bobo and Barnes. Riggins' error, a walk-to-Wells, Bob's sacrifice and Barnes third of four hits made during the game, gave the Stars a pair of runs in the sixth. Sunday's Guide The Stars made it two straight games when they again defeated the Detroit Stars by a conceptual eighth inning rally to pull a game out of the fire which was apparently lost beyond recall as the visitors had unmanned the local pitchers in the first three innings and scored eleven runs in the first three innings and scored at least one run in every innings, the fourth and ninth innings, being the only scoreless rounds. The final score was 16 to 15. Hamilton Cooper and Combs did the hurting for the visitors while Taylor used Branahan, Davis, Hensley, Miller and Brown and had eighteen men in the box score, using rare judgment in lining up his reserve forces, as in each instance where he needed a pinch hitter that particular individual delivered what was asked of him. There were too many runs scored to tell about all of them and the only timing of importance was the eighth when the locals came from behind and tied the score and put over another run to win the game, as Detroit was scoreless in the ninth. Taylor batted for Miller and was on a roller to short, sending Murray to second base. Combs came in to help behind the Wells walked and Bobo flied out to Jones, but Wilson doubled, putting Wells on third. Cressy's single scored Wells and put Wilson on third. Russell tripped and both runners counted. That was enough for Cooper and Combs came in to stop the rally. Reda greeted the new harrier with a double. Russell stopping at third. Murray up for the second time connected for his second blow, a single, and Russell scored. The Stars were one run behind Taylor was intentionally passed and the base were allied. Bell singled to score Murray and Relius, putting the Stars one run to the good. Wells ended the rally with a fly to Jones. The visitors went out in order in the ninth. Monkey's Game Three times in Stars when they trumped T to 1 on Monday. After Cooper and hold the forks screamless for the lions they fell on him Saturday's Game of all ball games played in Kansas, did he not later than 7 p. m. daily, ing also, for information to the fans, and scored two in the sixth, one in the seventh, one in the eighth and three in the ninth. Detroit touched Ross for a pair of doubles to score one run in the third. A double and two singles added two games runs in the fourth. The Stars scored two runs in the sixth when Wells walked and Creece, Russell and Bobe hammered out singles. Bell's home run tied the score in the seventh. In the eighth Detroit went into the lead by a run when Shepard and Jones shinged and the former came over while Kenned was being thrown out at first. The locals tipped it up in the eighth when Creece doubled and Russell Tripped in the ninth the Stars scored three runs to win when Russell hit a home run with Wells and Creece on base. Tuesday's Game The Stars made it four straights on Tuesday when they won from Detroit by a 7 to 6 score and for the fourth time in the series were forced to come from behind. Detroit scored two runs in the second inning on four singles. Crecyc's home run gave the locals one in their half of the innings. The visitors picked up a pair of runs in the fifth on three singles and a walk. In the sixth the local team sowed one run on Barnes' single and by great sprinting the rotund catcher gavsed from first base on Crecyc's double to center. Two singles and an unfield out putted the visitors a run in the seventh. The Stars drove Combs from the ground in the seventh when they fell for two singles, two double and he walked out and hit another. Bell relieved the little-right linder and stopped the scoring but five runs in that round made it too bad for Petway. In the eighth Detroit scored their final run while Miller walked Kenyon and Daniels tripped. Wednesday's Game # Wednesday's frame The St. Louis Stars made a clean sweep of the series with the Detroit team when they captured the final game S to 6 on Wednesday after a hard struggle. The game was called at five o'clock to allow the Detroit path to catch the evening train for home and there was considerable jousting or time when the Detroit team scored four runs in the seventh innings but the Stars played them at their own game and the game reverted to the sixth innings. The Stars took the lead in the opening innings and it was the first time in the series that the local team was to score. Bell and Wells doubled and Bolo-surfaced Bell to third and the feet center-gardener scored on Barnes' infield out. In the second the visitors scored three runs on an error, a single, a walk and Newson's triple. The local team tied the score at three alight when they counted one run in the latter portion of the innings on Russell's single and Watts' double. In the fifth, the visitors took the lead by scoring three runs on two walks and a triple. A double by Wells and Creece's single gave the locals another run in the fifth. In the fifth, a walk to Wells and a triple by Bobo and a double by Creece netted the Stars four runs and the game in the sixth innings. The visitors scored five runs in the first half of the seventh innings but as they were unable to give the local team its full time at bat the score reverted to the sixth innings and the final score was S to 6.

The dangerous Jock Malone is the latest of the victims to face that terrifying machine known as Demon Flowers from Georgia Anaf fast and slow. He was slaughtered at the Boston Basket field in the Hub city just Friday: Biff, biff, biff the gloves of the disksy boxer on the pale skin of his opponent all through the ten rounds, beating the latter about the face and body until he was crimson. Only one in the eighth round did the match-heralded Irish lad look anything like what he has cracked up to, and that was when he got a straight right through the almost impregnable defense of the Deacon, and gave him an awful jolt, that it took a little time to shake off, but the case can be for the St. Patricks case too, for that the St. Patricks condition that he was unable to follow would advantage. In another round Jock was aged to go along on a par with his opponent, but the other eight were Flowers' and easily gave him the decision. Mackay weighted 155 while Flowers weighted 161. Flowers is scheduled to meet a certain white windwirl from New Orleans by the name of Martin, in Cleveland, Ohio, next Monday.

The black shadow of Luperville, completely overwhelmed his giant armor. Mike Currory, in a scheduled 10-room heavyweight bout in Los Angeles, beat Wednesday night. The Belgian fighter, although game-proved as easy prey for the veteran coloured fighter, who punished him so severely in the second round that the rider stopped the massacre and awarded the decision to Godfrey. Before a gallery of 350 spectators, many of whom were skeptical of his ability as an aviator, Joel, Forman, 24 years of age, Los Angeles first colored air fighter, piloted his plane to a height of 2,600 feet, made several mose dives and a series of hate-raising stunts, which were part of his exhibition at the Eagle Airport, Ninety-second and Western avenues, for the benefit of the Dumbo Hospital. Foreman, who is a Los Angeles boy and former student of Los Angeles high school, undertook the study of aviation immediately following the Great War at the Eagle Airport. There, with the aid of instructors, he learned to fly and perform the stunts which thrilled his spectators Sunday. De Hart Hobgal had better watch his step as well as his jump, for from Parks comes the word that a superhuman Haitian youth by the name of Sylvain Cator made a heart of 7.72 meters, or a fraction over 25 feet 4 inches in the French capital the other day and shattered the national record. When a rank dark horse comes so close to a retreater's mark, which has already been leashed in the last four years, it is time for somebody to be taking notice. Since my return from the University of Iowa, where for the past three years, I have been a student in the Science of Ornithology. I have been asked by many friends both intimate and mutual what Ornithology was all about and what course in the biological field its embraces. It is with this view that I have underwritten to write this article so that to those of whom this science might appear foreign, will be enlightened on the subject. "Ornithology" which treats of birds, is called "Ornithology," derived from the Greek word meaning bird. It is a comparatively new science, having come into its own a little over fifteen years ago. This science deals exclusively with birds, the attributes and characteristics of them. Development of Ornithology in North America It is indeed interesting to note how this science came into existence and how it has developed in North America. In prehistoric times birds were known only as for food and clothing. There were no written documents on birds. But since that time birds have swaked other interests than utilitarian. In the latter part of the 19th century, notes on birds were traced back to the early 16th century. There were no books on birds until the middle of the 18th century. The first of the North American birds discussed were the "Wild Turkey" and the "Humming Bird," and the first writing on birds was done by the 'colonists. Economic Importance of Subject There is no subject in the field of natural science that is of greater interest than the important position that the living birds occupy in the great plan of organic nature. The food relation of birds is so complicated and has such far-reaching effect that other forms of life that the mind of man can be able to trace and grasp it, and that we learn of these beautiful creatures, are early their food habits, the more we will learn of their appreciable value to man and his surroundings. We must not forget that the native birds are one of our nation's most valuable assets. If we destroy them, in a comparatively few years, the insects will have multiplied to such an extent that trees will be denuded of their foliage, plants will cease to thrive and crops cannot be raised. These are not fancy, but plain facts. A very large proportion of the food of birds consists of insects. Effectively all the insects deceived by birds are injurious to plants or animals and consequently harmful to man. Another large element in the food of birds consists of small mammals, such as field mice, ground squirrels and rabbits. Cultivate Bird Love We must cultivate bird love. Teach the children not to destroy them indiscriminately. Teach even adults not to ruthlessly destroy natural beauty. We must begin now to save these creatures from destruction and even extinction to which many have victim. We must learn to protect them before further damage is done! We should not wait until the treasure is lost, we have no right to destroy that which forms a valuable part of our country and rob the generations to come of the privileges which have been ours. I hope this little article will enlighten many on the subject of Ornithology, and will be the medium for starting many others on the road to knowledge of our wild, feathered friends. - Clarence T. Hunter. - Student of Ornithology. - State University of Iowa. JEFFERSON CITY, Sept. 2. The road bathers of Missouri tourists are soon to be a thing of the past, according to B. H. Pleasner, chief highway who delivered a message over the radio Monday. In telling his invisible audience, in this and other states what Missouri was doing in building modern cars, the chief engineer on board will complete this year more than one thousand miles of hard roads, and the department's brief program calls for the completion of more than one thousand miles in 1926. By the fall of 1924, Engineer of the company would apparently half the miles he had faced and many additional miles will be graded and ready for surfacing. Vitually all of the two million dollars road bond issue will have been expended. #, ~ G2 Sa ee ee ee ee Wee: ‘Louis: Argus.

"However, granting’ there ix little segregation, since it ‘is against the fundamental: principles upon which our-Government is founded, even “a little segregation” should not exist with the knowledge of the, Chair-, -man of the National Committee, who'is also a Senator, nor with the President. who has proclaimed, “Liaw Enforcement” as a catdinal principle of his administration. e : "While filling cut the term cf the late President Hardin, Mri Coolidge was well informed as to the existence and. far reaching extent of segregation by the Governtnent in the various depart- ments in Washington. [twas hoped that after he assumed the duties-of Presiden “inhisownright.”"he would act officially in’! this matter, In fact, we were informed during the campaign last fall. that Hf Mr. Coolidge was. elected. She would do) many. things for the race, inchiding 1he_ainlishing of the menace of segregation. However, six months of his adntinistration have | passed and not even a single appointment of a Negro has’ been made by Mr. Coolidge, serving “in his own right”as President. | The period of “waitehtul waiting” has xbout expired and the fime for action is at hand. While the Negro has been. very pa-, tignt in Wis watchful and hopeful waiting, he will not always re- main so. ‘There is a limit to human endurance and even patience can be worn to.a frazale. Negroes are becoming restless and will! soon he-dematiding action from their Chief Exceutive, not only on “‘xegregation-but on suffrage as well as appointments: Pe , wpe el us.

G.”"came' ta sell ing his very soul for the job. + . . * _ LOOKS LIKE LILY WHITISM pei al ; We have-noted with’a deal of interest that there have been quite a few-meetings recently, throughout the state, in the inter- est of the candidacy of Senator George H. Williams, who will seek the Republican nominatiow to-suceeed himself hest year in the Primary... By Our interest'in the matter has been | chiefly thatof one watching a passing show at a distance merely noting the points of interest as we see them. The one thing we have "observed is that So far as we have been able to see there have no Negroes in- Vited to any of thesé meetings held in the interest of Senator Williams. “Our observation and general belief is that these meetings have been of the.“lily-white” stripe, which we regard. as a fore-runuer of « general plan to'éliminate the Negro from the party wounci}s ia a drdzen and bold way. This ig our view vf the situation, looking trom a, distanee, : We do hot know that the Senator himself is the chief promot. er of these meetings, since we have not’ been” invited-to any of Khem, vor has any colored person inv the state so far as we know, But" we do know that the Senator ts been a. party to these meet- ives, ‘Dr. Clement, Nat'l’ Conin’itteeman and Mr. Phares, State Chairman; have also been partiesto these lily-white gatherings of the Republican leaders of the State, Of course, we are not alarmed over the action of _the bosses ut this. time, we only wish'to call attention of these facts to the. thoughtful, intelligent Negro voter of the state. Sey aitiews of the release-4f all he Negros Umpires by Rube Foster, owner of the American Giants and President of the Negr.- - National Base Balt-heague. is rather diappointing ta. the many thousand fans who have so loyally -supported-the— popular sports for lo! these mang year. os ‘The colored people out of race pride, by their support, have enabled the promoters to develop players equal to those found in most Of the major leagues in the white clubs. It is naturally ex- pected that Negro Umpires would be developed along with the players.” We feel safe in saying that the fans have been’satisfied With the cdlored-umpires, Of course, there Have been some “kicks” on the decisions, Jt we find equally as many “kicks” coming from the players‘and fans in the major white leagues as ure found at Stars” Park? . Releasing the Negro Umpires at this time is a step backward in the development of the -national sport among Negroes. It takes away our pride. _It is humiliating. Tt robs the. fans of the very thing for which they have labored and paid. By releasing the Colored Umpires at this stage of the game, President Rube Foster enshrouds himself with suspicieli. “A gen’ eral suspicion that somewhere in his composition — there is that undying beli¢f in the superior mind of the white man; that in matters affecting.us. the white man must be thé arbiter. He thinks that Negro players play better when __the white men eal! “the game, thus reflecting discredit on all theeNegro players, ome: “ers and mandgers including himself. : . We are told that Rube is mad because his team, the American Giants, did not win the pennant. This may, or may not be true, but one thing has been mage very plain in this matter, and that is the unadvisability of Rube being hn presisent of the league’if confidence is to be maintained in Negro’ ball in th ee THE SY.

C. Sept. 9-10. Many Interesting Subjects Will Be Discussed. WASHINGTON D. C. August 31. On the 9th and 10th of September the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History will celebrate its Tenth Anniversary at Washington D. C. Coming to the end of the year of this first systematic effort to embody the civilization of the Negro, the management invites 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 progress for the future can be drawn out of the wisdom which it come only with an appreciation of the failures and successes of the past. The Association has, therefore, increased in favor with many who at first did not take it seriously. Some thought that the society might not add anything new to the already voluminous and worthless literature on the Negro. The work did not proceed far, however, before the scientific publications of the Association convinced intelligent people that this organization had invaded a new field to render the cause of truth a distinct service. It has published facts in scientific form, believing that facts properly set forth will tell their own story. Frederick J. Hoffman, statistician of the Prudential Life Insurance Company, likened the movement unto the important work started by John R. Green in popularizing the history of England. A. A. Goldenwiser characterized the enterprise an excellent one deserving an enthusiastic support. Dr. J. Fruiklin Jameson, editor of The American Historical Review, endorsed the effort as an undertaking deserving a cordial welcome. Prof. W. B. Munro, of Harvard University, acclaimed the first publication a historical journal of excellent quality, and Kelly Miller, styled it the most scholarly magazine ever published by Negroes. 'And this is the standard to which the Association has adhered. It has not tried to whitewash the Negro by proclaiming his achievements without noting his failures. Furthermore, it has not endeavored to publish what the whites have thought of the Negro, not what they have done for their brother of African blood, and not what they have done against him. 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. In working quit the program for this celebration of the Tenth Anniversary all aspects of Negro Life and history have been taken into account. Dr. Alain Leroy Locke, of Washington, and Dr. James H. Dillard, of the John F. Slater Fund, will speak on the civilization of Africa, Mr. R. Maurice Moss, of Baltimore and Mr. Abram L. Harris, of the Minneapolis Urban League, will discuss present day conditions of the Negro in Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Cincinnati. Prof. William L. Laprade of Duke University, President J. P. McConnell of State Teachers College of Virginia, and Dr. Charles H. Wesley of Howard University, will deliver addresses on the Negro before the Civil War. On this occasion the program will carry something new. Realizing the importance of definite knowledge of the achievements and possibilities of the Negro in the economic world, the Association has engaged Mr. W. Gomes, of the Bankers Fire Insurance Company, Mr. C. C. Spandling, and Prof. W. G. Pearson of Durham, N.

The St. Louis Argus ST.LOUIS,MO.,FRIDAY,SEPTEMBER 4,1925 Writer Says Quaker City, Is Becoming Hot Bed Of Race Antipathy, That May Come To Climax Any Time By Walter Archester Ellis PHILADELPHIA, Pa., August 31.— This is not submitted as a calamity howl. It is not an effort to cool the ardor of prospective visitors to the Quaker City next year. But it is intended as a warning in time. Something is happening in Philadelphia. The old mid-summer Riot-hen has been turning her eggs for some time. But owing to certain definite causes and along certain lines of definite reasonings, gained by actual experience about setting Riot-fiens, the writer senses that a young riot is likely to pip the shell at almost anytime during the next month. But cold weather usually cools the eggs. The hatching may resume, unless something to kill the eggs is done during the next month. Now is the time to begin smashing them. The present writer has studied inter-racial prejudice and its causes; the leading causes of several nation- note riots; and was personally present at the Atlanta riot, the Chicago riot and told through the columns of the Detroit Independent about the coming of the 1st Detroit riot a year ahead of its hatching and brooding. (The second one of that city is about to turn up in the vicinity of Graffiot and St. Antoine or Hastings next summer). Now he presumes to state the reasons why a riot—a big, dangerous one is almost due in Philadelphia. As a first cause, racial antagonism is at the bottom of these racial clashes. That is self-evident. But in itself there is seldom a cause for massed attacks. There are usually found political (Atlanta) or social (Omaha and Chicago as well as Detroit) camps in order to start the laceration and catch the eggs. In Philadelphia it is the growing bitter feeding between the races. Specially is this true upon South and Lombard streets in the shopping and Both the better element in a racce have begun to notice and to demur this situation. Large numbers of colored men are pouring in from the South. Numbers of women from the South also of both races are entering the city daily. The police do not seem to sense the situation pending. Yet it is growing stronger each day. Mixed marriages are rare and public social relations between the mixed sexes and races are not openly tolerated here. Yet, asidduhly, it is growing in magnitude.

Abyssinia Chief Victim. RECOMMEND, REFORMS Would Out-law Slavery, Suppress All Peonage And Abolish Forced Labor, Private Reports Withheld NEW YORK, Sept. 2 - Practical measures for remedying the conditions regarding slavery which exist in various countries, and concerted action by the powers concerned, are proposed in the report drawn up by the Temporary Commission on Slavery, set up by the League of Nations after meeting in Geneva. The commission had defined a mass of information which it separated under three heads: Information supplied by governments; reports from organizations or private persons, duly submitted to and commented upon by the governments concerned; personal knowledge and experience of its members. A questionnaire had been sent to all interested governments, but some of these had not replied, and especially the Mussolini governments, whose reports would have been particularly interesting, such as Persia, Arabia, and Afghanistan. The report which will be submitted to the Council and Assembly of the League of Nations, in September, comprises eight chapters. The chief recommendations fall under the following headings: Legal status. The commission recommends the abolition of the legal status. This would mean that the status of slave causes to be recognized by the courts, and in cases in which master and slave appear they stand on an equal footing. This is a very important point, with far-reaching implications. The master is unable to invoke the relationship in any way, and if the slave runs away he has no legal right to bring him back. In other words, he is without the redress which an ordinary employer would have for breach of contract, and his helplessness before the law thus tends to the freeing of the slaves. The abolition of the legal status, moreover, gives the right to take the slave against the master. The regime is in force, in most of the European colonies, and the commission recommends that the same thing shall be applied to domestic slavery and serfdom. Abyssinia Raided. Slave raids. In this matter the commission recommends collaboration on the part of the powers concerned. Raids are successful because the raiders are able to slip across frontiers and escape pursuit. It is proposed that the right of pursuit be granted. There is a great deal of raiding at the present time in the Río de Oro, or Spanish Guinea, on the west coast of Africa, in the northwest of Africa, in the territory and back again. Similar conditions exist between the French and British Cameroons, but the chief slave-raiding area is Abyssinia. Would Suppress Peonage As far as peonage is concerned the committee recommends a supervision of contracts. Theoretically, peonage is a system of land tenure, but its abuse renders it a system of sertifion. It is suggested that unconscionable contracts should be annulled, and in contrast to the recommendations in regard to slavery immediate action is urged. Slavery is often bound up with tribal customs, whereas peonage is a system imposed by a superior on an inferior civilization. Immediate freezing of slaves might in certain cases entail hardships, while the suppression of oppressive contracts would merely reinforce Forced Labor. It is recommended that the administrator shall have recourse to forced labor only for public works and services and that payment shall always be made. The commission was opposed to any use of forced labor for private purposes and entered a warning against the use of administrative machinery to recruit forced labor for private interests. The commission points out that the report does not pretend to be a complete account of the state of affairs. They have neither had time nor sufficient documentation to accomplish the task. The commission accounts as revealed in the information at the commission's disposal: It is not intended to publish the private reports of the members of the commission.

PITTWATER, D.D., Dean of the Water School, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago). © 1974, Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for September 6 PAUL WRITES TO THE PHILIPPIANS. LESSON TEXT—Phil: 3:17-16: 4.3 GOLDEN TEXT—I can do all things through Christ which strengtheth me—Phil: 4:13. PRIMARY TOPIC—Paul and His Friends J. JOHN TOPIC—Paul Preaching Toward the Goal INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—choosing Best Wings, GOOD PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Christian's Goal. The contents of the epistle may be summarized as follows: 1. Solution (1:1-2). 2. Thanksgiving and prayer in which he shows his loving interest in the (1:3-1:1). 3. Triumph of the gospel in spite of opposition (1:12-26). 4. Paul's promise to send Timothy and Ephesodro (2:19-30). 5. Exhortations and warnings (3:1-4:1). 6. Renewed appeal for unity (4:2-29). 7. Personal matters (4:16-29). The essential message of Philippians is a revelation of the mind which should dominate the Christian. 1. All Things Loss for Christ (G:7.9). The occasion for this declaration was the claim of the Judalizing teachers for legal righteousness. In chapter 3.4 he enumerates the grounds upon which he had a right to base his claims for legal righteousness. 1. "Crimemised the eighth day," in keeping with the demands of the law. 2. "Of the stock of Israel," related by blood and birth. 3. "Telle of Benjamin," from which the first king was chosen, and which always remained loyal to the nation. 4. "An Hebrew of the Hebrews," in contrast with some of mixed parentage. 5. "Touching the law, a Pilgrise," the set most zealous for the ritual of Judaism. 6. "Concerning zeal, persecuting the church." A passionate effort to crush church. 7. "Touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless," as to the condition of life demanded by the law. All of these valuable in themselves, when placed alongside of the excellence of the knowledge of Christ were abandoned for a better thing. The vision of Christ gave him the true perspective of values. In this light he saw the utter worthlessness of these things. After some thirty years of such trials and sufferings as perhaps no other human being ever knew, he has no regrets and still counts them as refuse in comparison with what he had gained in Christ. II. Faul's Present Desire (vv. 10:11) 1. "That I May Know Him." Personal acquaintance with the Lord was his supreme desire. To know the saying grace of Christ is good but to know Christ is infinitely better. 2. "The Power of His Resurrection." This is an advance thought over personal acquaintance. It is the expression of the life of Christ through the apostle. It is the power you gain to overcome, the mastery over sin and evil. 3. "Fellowship of His Sufferings." Not only identified with Christ in his sufferings by imputation, but that he might fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ (Col. 1:21). 4. "Attainment Into the Resurrection of the Dead" (vv. 71). This will be accomplished when the Lord comes (I Thess. 4:16:17). III. Preceding Toward the Goal (vv. 12:16) Paul clearly grasped the meaning of this perfection in Christ, yet he was keenly conscious of his personal limitations. Herein is expressed the true law of progress in the spiritual life. 1. Consciousness of limitations (v. 12). The first step towards progress is to be profoundly dissatisfied with personal attainments. No intellectual advancement is ever overdue by those who think they know enough, who are satisfied with what they have. 2. Consolations of a Transcendent Goal (v. 13). The Christian life is an upward calling. 3. A—Resolute Determination to Reach the Goal (v. 14). He declares, "This one thing I do" IV. The Right Occupation of the Mind (ch. 41-18) The ideal controls the man. "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." When once the mind is guarded and controlled by the peace of God, it will dwell upon spiritual things. Faith "Every man may lose the sunshine for a time because of the clouds but happy is he if he still retains his faith."

THE TOILERS By William D. Robinson Preston News Service Daybreak, and the whistles shriek The call to the daily task; Just bite to eat and a goodbye kiss This is the toiler's morning bliss. And this is all they ask. Noonday, and the dinner call; For tired limbs, an hour's rest; Just a bite to eat, and a dream of home This is the toiler's temple dome Where all his faith's expressed. Evening, and tired aching limbs, Now homeward slowly turning; A child's joy cry and a warm kiss This is the toiler's evening bliss. Each day's hard toil earning. And thus on thru sweat and tears, Thru light and gloom hope and fears Man measures out his tiny span and dies. With sweat and tears blest in his eyes, Of joy, of faith and fears! A SOUTHERN EVENING By William D. Robinson Preston News Service Thru my open window comes a stealing A gentle southern breeze, sweet with the breath Of dew-kissed roses and honeysuckles; Comes the sweet thrilling songs of mating birds; The flicking ripple of a distant stream And drifts anon the thrumming melody. Of a bumpy strings—and sweet bits of song, Of childhood's laughing voices blent in play. Then sweeps into my heart a flood of peace And joy and sweet contentment soothing out That dread unnessiness, clouding the soul Of every one of Ethiopic strain; I smile and let that gladness have its sway.

She will be glad to answer in this column, all questions of a reasonable length. When space will not permit, she will answer correspondents who enclose postage for a return reply. Questions for her should be addressed to Mme. Katherine Wilson, 3423 Indiana Ave., The Associated Negro Press, Chicago, il. Ahnabelle - Superfurious hair about the face and arms is quite a common affliction with indies of our race. Light skinned persons who have a heavy growth of black hair are particularly affected because the hairs are more easily seen. There are many wax preparations, depliators and sulphur concoctions which will give temporary satisfaction, but the same effect can be gotten with an ordinary safety razor. The result is that the hair comes out thicker and coarser with each application. The reason for this is that the coats of the NAV remain healthy and the hair continues to grow unless the root is destroyed. There is only one way that we know, that hair may be removed safely and permanently. The use of electrocution either by the needle or radiator will still require trick. This method is painful and very difficult so be sure that you have an expert in the line to perform the operation. Madame X—Glind to know that you absorbed what I had to say last week about the finger nails, arms, hands. If we are to be beautiful we must be beautiful all over and no one part can be neglected. Personally: I prefer the gentle rounded or oval shaped nail. Extremely pointed and odd shaped nails or nails allowed to grow too long give one the impression of poor taste just as the man who insists on wearing a bright red tie with a dark suit. Persons of refinement seldom put a high gloss or varnish on their nails. Would advise against the liquid polish for the same reasons. A soft rose or pink polish rubbed in well with the palm of the hand or a chamomile gives the best result and does not damage the brittle. Miss Eleanor W. Yes, the hairdresser's legislation law has been passed in Missouri, and also in Illinois. The requirements are quite rigid already and soon all beauty cultures will have to be well prepared as the doctor or dentist in his particular profession. I would advise that you study the theoretical branches of the trade even though you have had several years of practical work. If you will write me, enclosing a stamped envelope, I will be glad to give you more information about the state examinations which are sure to come, in every state. I will be glad to give all persons interested in the practice of beauty culture, any suggestions that are within my power to enable them to pass these examinations. "AGENTS: 200 race articles.

A GROUND FLOOR South Your Chance Best Singl The M SEE IT AT 40 Seven and Eight Rooms, Ha BUBBLES AND MONEY IN THIS country and Canada a common superstition is that bubbles floating on a cup of tea or coffee signifies that money is coming to you. In some sections it is considered necessary to try and take up the bubbles in a spoon; you will have as many dollars as you can catch bubbles. This is a remnant of the ancient magic art of hydromancy, divination by a cup of water as practiced by Joseph in Egypt. See Genesis 44:5. Water was used for divination by the Egyptians because Isis was sometimes regarded as the earth when fecundated by the waters of the Nile and a vessel of water was therefore carried in her processions. In ancient times any troubling of the waters, in a pool or in a cup, was considered of significance. In modern necromancy the coffee cup has succeeded to the divining cup of Joseph and tea and coffee to the fecundating waters borne before Isis. But as of old, the bubbles rising in our divining cup mean something. But why money? Because the influence of Egyptian mythology upon Roman mythology was strong and though the cult of Ials was but slightly identified with the cult of Juno; yet Ials was the chief of the Egyptian goddesses as Juno was the chief of the Roman goddesses. So it is the breath of Juno that rises in bubbles in our coffee cups and Juno, under her name of Monet, means money. Doubtless when the ancient Romans practiced this rite with a cup of water they invoked the goddess. A LINE O' CHEER By John Kendrick Bangs. SMILES I ASK not luxuries to please My taste for social vanities. Although I frankly do confess I like them rather more than less, But luxury of time and space.

My hair, which should be woman's great charm, used to be coarse and unruly due to dandruff. My face was sallow and often bore ugly pimples. "I had heard Exelento Quinine Pomade praised on all sides and I got a package and began using it as directed. The words were unloving. My dandruff all left me and my hair began to get so soft and silky that it was a delight to comb it." "Then I began to use Exelento Skin Soap on my face and the results were equally amazing. All bleamishes disappeared and my face became soft, smooth and beautiful."
