STANDARD LIFE, PRIDE COLORED RACE, REDEEMED
An Exponent Of Truth and Justice A Square Deal For Every Man VOL. XIV NO. 20 STANDARD LI COLORED RAC St. Louis Underwriters' Corp., To Take Over Entire Business Of Old Insurance Company
Business Will Be Trained Over On Or Before October 1st. Details Not-Given Out At The St. Louis Office.
Announcement has just been made from the offices of the St. Louis Underwriters Corporation, 2803 Pine Boulevard, that contracts were made this week, whereby the financial Life Insurance Company of Atlanta, Ga. becomes the property of this group of its business/men, thereby bringing back to the Race this organization which was their pride. It is understood that the business is to be turned over to the Corporation on or about October 1, 1925. The deal represents approximately twenty-four million dollars worth of insurance in force. Together with the business comes assets of close to three million dollars and a monthly income of close to one hundred thousand dollars. The transfer is made, including good will, the entire agency, organization and clinical forces of the home office and branch offices in thirteen states.
The St. Louis Underwriters Corporation which is authorized for the redemption of the Standard Life, was founded by the President, who was formerly an agent of the Old Standard Life Insurance Company and who cherished the hope of being instrumental in bringing this gem back to the colored people.
It will be remembered that at the time the Standard Life Insurance Company passed into the hands of the Southern Life, a promise was made by Mr. Will G. Harris, president of the Southern Insurance Company, agreeing to sell the company back to any group of reputable Negroes within the next ten years. Several of the officers of the St. Louis Underwriters Corporation participated in the disposition of a large amount of stock and insurance of the Standard Life, and were naturally interested in its salvation. With this in view, Mr. Harris was approached and after several conferences in Nashville, the idea was finally consummated. Among the personnel of the Corporation are leading business and professional men. The officers and directors are as follows: Wm O. McMahon, president; W. H. Moshy, secretary; A. C. Maclin, treasurer; C. Frenshaw, C. A. Pitman, Dr. T. J. Jackson, Dr. C. M. Powell, J. E. Mitchell, Dr. R. C. Haskell, M. L. Sanford, L. S. Williams, Dr. S. P. Stafford, Rev. B. F. Abbott, Dr. H. B. McMechien, Prof. J. B. Coleman, Dr. Wm J. Thompkins, Willis G. Moseley and Attorney Jos. L. McLemore, Counsel.

IS FREED AFTER BEING HELD FIVE YEARS FOR RAPE
Supreme Circuit - Justice
Says "Evidence Does Not
Sustrain Corruption," After Three Lynched.
The Associated Negro Press
STILLWATER; Minn., Sept.—Max
Mason one of the nine Negro charged
with the murders of the circus
grounds, at Duluth, Minn., June 15,
1920, and the only one to be convicted
upon trial after three of them had
lynched, was released from Stillwater
prison upon conditional discharge today.
One of the Justices of the Supreme Court of Minnesota in a
disenting opinion said: "In my view
of the evidence does not sustain the
conviction." It is the general opinion
that Mason was not guilty and that
the girl's story of being criminally
assaulted by six men was manifest
and that the case concealing
some other transposition was
part. One of the jurors is reported
to have said that while he voted to
convict Mason he did not believe he
was guilty, but he did believe that
Mason had some knowledge about
the matter that he did not tell.
Mason spent some time with Attorney W. T. Francis, in St. Paul, who has been working to secure his release for the past two years.
Strike Riot Near At Southampton
Preston News Service
LONDON, Sept. 5- Southampton,
which is the storm center of the ship-
ing strike, is threatened with grave
disorder and it is reported that the
police and strikers are massed face
to face.
The trouble began early Wednesday
evening when sixteen colored men
shiping off the harbor paraded before
the Royal Mall Storm rainy day's
office and demanded an inter-
view with the company's representative,
who, they allege, misled them,
when they inquired for a ship unfa-
fected by the strike. They found, they
said, on arrival at the ship, that they
were expected to replace other col-
ored men who had ceased to work.
They threatened serious reprisals if
they got hold of the ship representative
and the police were called.
Late Wednesday a strong force of
police was stationed outside the build-
ing, while opposite them was the colo-
tion group flanked by a strong
force of British strikers.
A large number of men were to
replace the strikers, and each vessel
secured a proportion of her com-
plement. If necessary the ships will
additional men the same way as
adopted in the case of the Majestic
from tugs after the left shore.
The shipping companies are optimistic that the ships will sail. The Olympic is due tomorrow and effort will be made to spread discontent among the crew, but shipping officials, the crew, and shipping officials had offers of more men than needed. The officers have been successful in disorganizing crosg channel service from Southampton, but service from other ports are unaffected.
WIN FIGHT FOR LIBRARY
TAMPA. Fl., Sept. 9 — After more than two years of co-operation between the Tampa Urban League, and the Tampa Public Library Board, there is hope of an adequate branch library for Negroes of this city. For several years the only reading facilities furnished the colored people of Tampa were a few books kept in the principal office at Harlem Academy, where at that time, there was not a routine school work, to say nothing of community for a public reading center.
Early in the year 1923 the Tampa Urban League insisted upon more accessible housing quarters for the Branch Library, and, finding that the Library Board was not financially able to provide the necessary funds for the desired expansion of the Negro work the Urban League offered the part time services of its office, the street scene, thezie Dansep, and moved into its present home 1310 Marlon street, where two neatly fitted rooms have served to accommodate the colored reading public.
Under the care and guidance of the Urban League and its staff the Library has grown in strength and influence, the circulation has increased and the Tampa Public Library has been convinced that the Negroes of Tampa must be provided for.

G. G. WILLIAMS LET OUT OF HIS STATE JOB
Act Seen By Outsiders As Indication Of His Loss Of Political Power. It Is Said He Deceived Governor Baker By Saying Negroes Were Satisfied.
JEFFERSON CITY. Mo. Sept. 9—Special to the Argus. It was learned here yesterday that C. G. Williams has lost but is food and drug inspector. State job which carries a salary of $200,000 per month. Aaron will persists that the cause of Williams losing his job is that he is losing ground with the governor who, it is said, accuses Williams of "double crossing" or deceiving the governor on matters affecting the Negroes of the State. Williams admits that he is out, but says that he will be "taken care of" by the State in some other way. He wants, it is understood, an easy job at Jefferson City. It will be remembered that a short while ago, Williams was a target for criticism from the colored people throughout the State for his action toward Lincoln University. He was charged at the time that Williams was trying to put pat Lincoln University under the old political "Spoils System" where he could control all the teachers and run the University. Some went so far as to charge Williams with being a traitor to his race.
In the meanwhile news comes now that Rufus Logan, who was also one of the Negroes in the food and drug department of the State has also lost his job. The police department "taken care of" by the police department at Kansas City.

SHIREVPORT, J.a., Sept. 9. - More than 14 blocks in the residential section, mostly, inhabited by Negroes, have been destroyed by fire at midnight, Friday, while firemen looked on helplessly because of the lack of water due to the bursting of the city main. The fire was gradually eating its way toward the business section of the city and was sweeping through the Negro section. It is said that most of the homes occupied by Negroes were of frame construction and numerous flames. Damage in the Negro section was estimated late Friday night as being close to a million dollars. Under the hampered conditions indications are that millions of dollars worth of damage will be done before the confi-
Residents in all sections of the city were making preparations to leave their homes, some saving as much of their household effects as possible.

Twice. Brings Out A Trapped White Woman And Boy. Two Perish:
LITTLE ROCK. Ark., Sept. 9—Joe Baller of 2801 Center street, committed one of the most daring deeds of bravery this section has ever known Tuesday morning when twice he entered a Treasury building at 2716 Center street, that was enveloped in flames and searched around in its fiery interior until he had found one of the three persons known to be trapped there and carried them to the street.
Two Perish
Although Baller failed to bring out the third occupant of the burning building, A. H. McDonald, who proprieted a store there, and although one of the persons he brought out, Mrs. Mary Davis, died at the General hospital, it is expected that Mrs. Davis' 10-year old son whom he brought into the fire, Neil Neilson, the fate of McDonald, whose body was found charred to ashes after the building had burned to the ground, and the fire extinguished.
Dared Death
Baller discovered the fire blazing furiously in McDonald's place about 4:30 a.m. While someone sent in an alarm to the fire department, he broke open the front and rear doors of the building to warn the occupants. He knew that there was a "Mr. Mac" living there that was said to be dead.
Several times he heard the trapped man calling but owing to the flames and smoke he was unable to locate him. He finally ran upon Mrs. Davis and her child, both unconscious on the floor of the smoke filled room. By the time he had removed them all possible passages were cut off by the fire.
Firemen Delayed
Firemen were delayed by a mistake in the address and arrived too to add the building. The total loss was estimated at $4000.
McDonald's body was found by a window burned beyond recognition. He had removed a screen but bars prevented his escape.
Physicians expressed hopes for the boy whom Ballou attached from the jaws of death.

SPECIAL COLLEGE AND WOMAN HIKES FROM COMMUNITY SERVICE CHICAGO TO ST. LOUIS
Will Be Heal At All Saints Parish This Sunday Eve, Planned At Recognition For College Students
The Young People's Fellowship of All Saints' Parish has planned a Service of recognition for all college students of this community on next Sunday, Sept. 13. The aim of the Fellowship in fostering this service is to bring before the community in a gentle way the experiences of the races in trained leaders, and to impress upon the student body in general the fact that the entire community is interested in the success of each one of them.
The Fellowship desires all students, both upper classmen and freshmen, will be present, as well as teachers, fraternity men, sorority women, and all who have the best interests of higher education at heart. The service will be at All Saints' Church, Garrison Ave., and Locust St., and will begin at 6 p.m. it will be a very simple service of familiar hymns, responsive reading, prayer, and an address by Father Clarke on The College and the Community. The service will start promptly, and will not last over an hour and a half so that the evening will be free for any other engagements.
According to information received, this is the first time that such a service has been held in this city. It is a most worthy cause, and it should receive the hearty cooperation of the entire community.
Hear Blind-Boone Monday, night at Centennial Christian Church.
Mr. Clarence E. Muse, the distinguished American Actor, formerly the producer and star of the Lafayette Players, also, with wide experience abroad, has after much persuasion consented to play the leading role in the production of "Thais," to be given at the Olden Theatre October 2.
The Day Nursery Organization in its desire to give to the public of St. Louis something out of the ordinary, conceived the idea, after the custom of amateur productions in the other cap, that they could have it celebrate skating with the amateur cast it would be of interest to their group. This attempt will be the first time that it has ever been tried among colored amateur theatricals.
The Day Nursery Organization is jubilantly expecting to go down in history as pioneers in the artistic development of drama among our people. It was quietly announced through telephone conversations that Mr. Muso had decided to play this role and immediately the demand for tickets were so great that several meetings were necessary for the ticket committee in order that they may be in a position to come with the situation. The new interest shown by the many new actors of the very large cast of eighty is remarkable and unless the judgment of many years' experience is worthless, we can safely say at this writing that "That is" will be an artistic triumph well as a financial success for the Day Nursery Organization which is putting forth this gigantic effort for "Sweet Charity's sake."

MURRAY'S SHOW IS FULL OF
PEP AT THE BOOKER
Dusty Murray and his "Struttin'
Along" Company are putting over a lively show at the Booker Washington Theatre this week.
The opening is a Dixie Song and medley of choruses with dances by a quartette of girls, ending with the "Charleston." introducing Rastus Murray. In fact, the "Charleston" from the opening to the finale is conspicuous. L. L. Lane follows with some nifty soft, shoe dancing and singing "Sunshine of Virginia." Belle Murray and girls are lively with "Everybody loves My Baby." Rastus and A. C. Smith make a bet on the kind of music that the audience likes and jazz wins over old time melodies. Anna Mae Cole goes over nicely with singing and dancing "Eliza." Dusty Murray paired with Chik & McIntosh have a good act that includes songs and dances by both with Japonic domestic squabbling sandwiched in. Ella Mae Waters and Belle Murray have a nifty team dance. Raymond Johnson is a typical "Dope Friend." Miss Murray and the girls have a Hawaiian Dance that cannot get away from the "Charleston;" so it is with "Red Hot Mammum." by Lane and George wired, who also have some good comedy and lively dancing. The Murrays have a comedy, all singing, vies the dancers with the aweses. They closing begins with a display of city and state stiflers and ends in a finale with the entire company. It's a good entertainer.
KID THOMAS AND COMPANY
NEXT WEEK
Kid Thomas will bring his company of good performers to the Booker Washington Theatre, next week, beginning next Monday. This producer's musical comedy revue is a delight to theatrical patrons.
The Booker has added two more special features to its week's program, besides "Pay Day" on Monday night. The "Charleston" is to get its airing in two classes of contest. On Thursday nights the juveniles (Little fellows) will get their chance; and on Friday nights the adults will display their art. A fat cash prize is the object of the winner in both classes and a bunch of good entertaining is in store for the patrons.
"SILK STOCKING REVIEW"
AT THE GAYETY
Armande Monte is said to "make the charm" speak in "Silk Stocking Revenue" next week's attraction at the Gayley Theatre. This is only one of the many good features which Mrs. Harry Hastings is offering in her new show.
THE PICTURE THEATRES
THE COMET
Douglas Fairbanks will be featured in the big attraction, "Don Q, Son of Zorro" at the Concert Theatre on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. It is a supreme melodrama. The story has to do with a young Spanish don who comes to Spain from California to complete his education. Circumstance makes him a national hero, then precisely enough, circumstance bends him a murderer. To avoid conviction, the hero feigns suicide, and becomes the dashing and mysterious Don Q. Hearing of his son's profane treatment, his father, the famous Don Q, why won glory as Zorro in California, goes to Spain and together father and son win back the family honor at the point of the sword. In the opinion of many, this is Douglas Fairbanks' finest contribution to the cinema. Action, plus with tightening play stunts, athletic achievement, humor and romantic ingenuity consistently.
Gloria Swanson will be seen in "A Social Scandal" on Tuesday, "Tu-White Monkey," forfeiting Burleson La Marr will be on Wednesday feature. It is based on the glamorous trifolios, a show life of London's young society.
The attraction on Thursday and Friday will be "The Fool." In this thoughtful story, young Daniel Gilchrist, curate of a fashionable Fifth Avenue church, strives to live his life. Christ would have it if proof. Reaizing that he is rampant in his congregation the preacher in the director. That comforting divine tells him to preach the sort of sermons that will please the wealthy pew holders. The reply is a savage attack from the pulpit the following week, and the curate's downfall immediately follows. Hence he curses the title "The Fool."
THE STAR
The Prairie Wife will be the feature at the Star Theatre this Saturday. It is a story essentially dramatic, but with many humorous moments, of the struggle of an eastern girl and her husband in developing a farm in the prairies. The picture is filled with such incidents as the prairie fire and the capture of the murderer, with the underlying theme of the development of the prairie and the transformation of the girl. Dorey Devore and Herbert Rawlinson play the leading roles.
Harry Carey in "The Texas Trail" will be the main Sunday special. The story of this picture hinges on the theft of ten thousand dollars and its recovery by the bovine after neck-breaking clauses, mainly hand-to-hand lights and daring robberies. Another feature on Sunday will be "Foray and Forget," the story of a woman's mistake; featuring Estelle Taylor, Wyndham Standing and Pauline Garon.
Richard Talmadge will be seen in "The Mysterious Stranger" on Monday: Big Roy Williams, in "The Eagle's Claw" and Jackie Congan in "Long Live the King" will be Tuesday specials. Clare, Windsor heads the cast in "The White Desert" on Wednesday, and another feature will be "Man-and Wife."
The special for Thursday and Friday will be "Pretty Ladies." It is a colorful story of life in the wings, dressing room and backstage. The leads are played by Zasn Pitts and Tom

THE JESTAMERE
Elaine Hammerseth in "In One Glorious night," will be the Jestamere Theatre feature this Saturday. It is the story of a young girl who was completely misled by the power of wealth, thinking that it was complete in itself and that with it she could command happiness.
Milton Sills, will be featured in "The Making of O'Malley" on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Thrills, love, interest pathos-suspense, unusual dramatic situations real come-all these are found in this picture. For genuine entertainment, which includes the proper amount of tears and laughter, "The Making of O'Malley" is all that could be desired: It is a striking romance of a New York policeman and a society girl who has renounced the ballroom for civile welfare work. The girl's refining influence lifts this burly, awkward "cop" to a newer and higher plane, as the action unfolds and the threads of a love plot are woven.
"Quo Vultis" will be the big attraction on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. This suspenseful picture, numbering 80,000 people in its cast, was produced in Rome on the very site of Nero's trenangles. The acers in his hands are the birthplace of the Christians at the Sinai, as flowers at Nero's garden party, the charlot races and mournment of other Christians in the arena of the Circus Maximus, the battle between the bull and the gant, Ursus with Lygia bound to the animal's back, and other thrills. Offsetting these are the tender love story of Lygia and Miniclus and the unyielding faith of the Christians in the face of horrible death.
THE OLYMPIA
Tom Mix and Tony will be seen in "The Lucky Horseshoe" at the Olympic Theatre on Saturday and Sunday. While this is a western picture, there is a decided innovation, in that a Spanish dream sequence, in which Tom cancels the role of Dón Juan, the greatest lover of medieval times. There are thrills galore intermixed with real comedy—and in the dream sequence, with a thrilling twist of times. It is without a doubt one of the finest bits of acting Tom has done so far in his career and a picture no one will want to miss.
Monte Blue and Marie Prevost head the cast in "Kiss Me Again," on Monday. Another feature will be a western drama "Taking Chances." Mary Philbin and John Sainpinois are the stars in "The Rose of Paris," on Tuesday. Laura La Plante and Pat O'Malley will be featured in "The Teaser" on Wednesday. "Pine Clothes is announced for Thursday and Friday," story, from actual life, unpublished, to tribunal hearings. Donnadhon shopkeeper who is betrayed by wife, cheated by his employee and dupe by his friend. A notable cast has been given the production, including Lewis S. Stone, Percy Marmont, Alma Rubens, Eileen Pesty and others.
THE CASINO
Richard Talmadge will be featured in "The Isle of Hope" this Saturday at the Casino Theatre. With nothing but a fire on shipboard, a mutiny of his crew, a sunken vessel, a ship wreck on a desert 'sland, a beautiful girl who lives alone in a ruined old castle, a pirate's treasure stored in a cellar, a man in a dress Dick is an idle young man 'suffering from sleeping sickness.
Thunder, the dog actor, will be seen in "His Master's Voke" on Sunday. This dog shows uncanny intelligence. Evelyn Brent is the star in "Lady Robin Hood"; the Monday special Mary Carr, heads the cast in "The Night Ship," the Tuesday feature. Roy Stewart will be seen in "Untamcal," a story of the boarder, on Wednesday. "Shattered Lives," featuring Edith Roberts and Robert Gordon will be the Thursday special; and Josie Sedwick is cast as "The Outlaw's Daughter" next Friday.
THE LINCOLN
House Peters and Miss Dupont will be featured in "Raffles, the Amateur Cracksman," at the Lincoln Theatre, this Saturday. Peters portrays the mine character who was a gentleman cracksman of super-powers when it came to baffling the best Scotland Yard detectives.
"Heart of a Stren," with Barbara La Marr and Conway Tearle, will be the Sunday special. Its story is of a stage shen whose allurements captivate all Europe. The merry pace adds to the hospitable throughout the gay capitals the continent affords the picture some setting, which, for rich picturelessness, rival anything on the screen.
Forrest Stanley and Margaret Livingston in "Up the Ladder" on Tuesday, Richard Malmudge in "The Fighting Demon," also Shirley Mason in "Scandal Proof" on Wednesday; and "The Light of Western-Stars," on Thursday, are all big features.
THE CRITERION
"Salome Of the Tenements" will be the feature at the Criterion Theatre this Saturday. The romance of an East Side girl, driven by a deathless passion for romance to burn through the barriers of race, class and creed. It tells a sympathetic tale of a girl of the submerged thousands in New York City who lights her way from poverty to a high place where she is able to help her own people toward a finer life.
Milton Sills, Eileen Bennett, Wallace Beery are stars in "The Sea Hawk," on Sunday. Four gigantic sea goaming vessels of the Sixteenth Century, exact in every detail and manned by a thousand sailors, corvettes, galley slaves and officers, participate in much of the action, several naval battles, during which ships ram into each other head on, then lash themselves together, while their crews engage in hand to hand combat, are said to be 'but a few of the unique and highly exciting scenes of the production.
Laura La Planta and Pat O'Malley are featured, in "The Tender," for *The Heart of a Woman* and way Tearle have the star: "The Heart of a Woman," in *The Heart of a Woman*; and

TUSKEGEE, Ala., Sept 9—What Negro farmers in almost every state in the union are paying for mortgage and other money would break John D. Rockefeller. What they sell their products for would bankrupt Henry Johnson, whose poration would go under if forced to pay for supplies that Negro farmers do.
The above are highlight sentences in a communication just written to T. M. Campbell, in charge of the extension work among Negro farmers in the South, by Charles E. Hall, for many years employed in the United States Census Bureau and one of the foremost statisticians on matters affecting the Negro. Mr. Hall was at one time mentioned for service in the Farm Loan Bureau where it was felt that he could be of service to cooperative groups among Negro farmers.
He complains to Mr. Campbell that all their injuries are due to a failure to come together as the white farmers have done to bring to light the problems of 1920, then colored farmers and owners in every state from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the Lakes to the Gulf, and as owners and tenants they constitute the only group in our race which is doing business on invested capital amounting to two billion dollars a year and more.
But business men do not suffer from the fills our farmers do," writes Mr. Hall, "neither do intelligent farmers who through the power of organization get ample mortgage money at the rate of 5 and on half and 6 per

cent on long term loans with no commission or renewal charges. They band together when they buy supplies in order to get wholesale prices, and throughout the nation the farmers are organizing cooperative marketing associations for the purpose of selling their products at a profit above the cost of production." "Congress," he continues, "attempts no legislation affecting agriculture without consulting representatives of national organizations composed of farmers, but during a prolonged residence in Washington I have yet to see or hear of one of our farmers appearing before congressional committees of affairs on matters affecting the welfare and progress of the nearly one million colored farmers.
"They are not called into conference simply because they are an unorganized mass. They either do not know the power of organization, in an age when everybody is organized, or else they vainly hope to gallop down prosperity pike on the back of organized white farmers who are spending time, money and energy to make agriculture an attractive and profitable business."

SCIENTIST WILL TEACH HAITI COFFEE GROWING
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 9. Coffee will be cultivated scientifically in Haiti. If the plans of the University of Pennsylvania department of botany, are carried out...
Although coffee long has been one of the principal exports of Haiti, no serious attempt ever has been made there to cultivate the plant with the thoroughness used in other countries. Dr. Charles H. Arndt, of the University's Botany department, left for the island Friday to establish an experiment research station which it is hoped will result in better methods of coffee culture. He expects to be in the services of the Haitian government at least three years.
In addition to the experiment station and research work, Dr. Arndt will teach a course in coffee culture in the Agricultural School in Haiti.

Associated Negro Press
DURHAM, N. C., Sept. 9.—Mrs. Nell Hunter, Durham's popular lyric soprano whose singing has been a sagasational triumph wherever she has appeared since graduating from the Chicago Musical College, announces throughough news that Gomez will be for a tour beginning November first, which will take her as far south as Tuskegee and up east by way of Nashville to New York.
Mrs. Hunter has been praised by press and public of both races wherever she has appeared. Harry T. Burleigh wrote her on one occasion, "Themore I think about it, the surrender I am that you will become one of our great artists. You have brains, voice, heart, intelligence, self-esteem, ambition, application and a unimaginable physical commitment."
The Musical Critic of the Baleigh
(N. C.) News and Observer says she
has a voice "combining a fault-
less purity of tone, power with
utmost smoothness, technical assurance
without loss of natural beauty, clear as
a soprano and soft as a contralto."
Mrs. Hunter has just signed an
agreement to appear as a feature one
evening during the N. C. State Fair
which is probably the largest gathering
of the kind in the State and is an
unusual achievement for a colored artist. While on tour her schedule includes a number of broad-casting engagements and the climax of her tour will be reached in New York where she is to fill a number of important engagements including the making of some records of Negro Spirituals for one of the larger phonograph corporatibus.

Detroit Stars Win Three From The Cubans
DETROIT, it two, Sept. 8.—Detroit Stars made it two straight over the Cuban Stars at Mack Park Sunday afternoon 87.
Five runs in the opening frame shoved the Detroit club off, to a good start and they sowed it up in the fifth when three safeties resulted in another trio of tallies.
The Cubans outhit the Stars, 12-10, but they failed to group their blows to advantage, while two misplays contributed to their defeat. The invaders staged a rally in the ninth that fell on short of a tie.
Monday
Detroit Stars staged a ninth inning rally to take the third game of the series from the Cubans Monday 12 to 11.
Gomes, after holding the locals in check for eight innings, weakened in the ninth, and was driven from the mound. Going in to the ninth five runs behind, Smith beat out an infield hit and later scored on Stearns's homer. Jones and Daniels singled and scored on Hampton's triple, Hampton then scored, on Przywik single to center.

New Madrid Giants Win
NEW MADRID, Mo., Sept. 9 — The New Madrid Giants defeated Porto-gilleville Hot Shots, last Sunday 8 in 1. Enlow pitched fine ball for the locals, striking out 12 hatters. Ward's slow throw from first to the plate in the first half of the ninth saved the Hot Shots from a shutout.
Referee Stops Flowers' Bowl
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept. 3 — Tiger Flowers of Atlanta, won all the way from Ted Moore, eliminat, of the British middleweight championship in the feature bout at Taylor's Bowl here last night.
So great was Flowers' superlucky that Referee Johnny McGuire, after frequently urging Moore to fight, stopped the bout in the sixth round. Moore explained his had showing on the ground that he had not fought for seven months and had entered the ring unprepared, having substituted for Marty Burks, who was injured in training.
Flowers and his manager, Walk Miller, left for the East after the bout.

"Story-telling is an art," said the kindergarten teacher.

CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES WITH KANSAS CITY MONARCHS WILL OPEN HERE SATURDAY, SEPT.19
Owner Lewis of the Memphis Red Sox has informed the owners of the St. Louis Stars that he will not bring his club here for the final series of the season which was to be of five games and start this Saturday. So far as could be learned, the Red Sox have finish the schedule. It is understood that the controversy over the final series has been going on for several days, but the Memphis owner only came to a final decision Thursday. The St. Louis owners of the Stars made every reasonable offer to induce Owner Lewis to carry out the schedule. They not only guaranteed all expenses, but placed railroad tickets for the transportation of his club to St. Louis.
Five Games Forfeited
After every effort was exhausted, President A. Rube Foster was notified and in a long distance conversation Thursday night, he declared the five games forfeited to St. Louis unless the Memphis club shows up at Stars' park Saturday.

The clubs will then decide where the remaining games will be staged. The Kansas City park will not be available until after Sept. 27. Reservations for box seats can be made now at Stars' park. The distribution of tickets will begin Wednesday.
One Game Keeps St. Louis Stars In The League Lead
KANSAS CITY, Sept. 9—By winning today's game from the Kansas City Monarchs, the St. Louis Stars retained their lead in the Negro National League race and the boys from the Mound City need only a clean sweep of the Memphis series to win the second half pennant.
The Stars had a hard time with the World Champions, who used their entire category of baseball knowledge in an endeavor to capture the five games and put the youngsters out of the running. Even the umpire seemed to take up the spirit and ruled every close play in favor of the home team. Many brilliant plays were turned; but to Eddie Watts goes the credit for the final sensational play that scorped the lead for his team mates.
Rogan Wins Saturday
The visitors got decidedly the worst of the umpire decisions on Saturday, and two of their rellies were cut off by this route. The Monarchs won 6 to 4 before 3000 persons.
"Bullet" Rogan, who got away to a somewhat unsteady start, wound up by pitching the best game, of his career this season, striking out nine opposing batsmen.
The visitors used three hurlers, Branahan, Brown and Miller, all of whom were hit freely. Both clubs played erroneous ball.
The Monarchs opened up with a 5-run rally in the first inning, which was sufficient to win.
**Rain on Sunday**
Sunday would have seen a record crowd but a heavy rain and hall-storm started about noon and lasted long enough to turn the infield into a mud pond. It was the first time since 1923 that rain had caused the postponement of a Sunday game here.
**Twin Victory for Monarchs**
The Monarchs crept two games nearer the lead Monday when they turned back the St. Louis Stars in a double header, 7 to 5 and 6 to 1. A crowd of 8,500 saw the games.
In the opening contest Drake was hit hard and forced to retire in the fifth, being relieved by W. Bell, who held the visitors at bay during the remainder of the game. A 5-run rally in which W. Ross was knocked from the mound, gave the Monarchs the no-hit victory. In the aftermath Dean and Rogan hold the visitors to six scattered hits and a lone run, Branahan, who replaced Davis, fattened his strikeout record by voluntary strikeouts, the Monarchs desiring to heat out the darkness which threatened to halt the game.
In the first game Russell and Redus each got three haggars and Greecy made the circuit. Jim Bell's running one hand catch, near the center of the field, the second drive was the screaming sensation of the day. So sure was everyone that the Stars had a safe lead in this game that the Monarch's rally in the 7th was a complete surprise.
Rogan Stars Tuesday
When the champions came from behind to win their fourth consecutive game from St. Louis Tuesday, the race became a neck and neck affair. Joe Rogan was the outstanding star in Tuesday's contest. After hitting for Duncan-in the fifth and cleaning the bases with a triple to tie the score, Rogan replaced Mendez on the rubber and held the visitors while his teammates scored a trio of runs to win 10 to 7.
Miller Skopa Monarchs
Although they won four of the five games played in the series the Monarchs failed to displace the league leading St. Louis Stars, in the final

game of the series Wednesday, the visitors bunched hits to win, 8 to 6, and returned home with a full game advantage over the champions in the race for the pennant in the second half.
Miller was the outstanding star of Wednesday's contest, Replacing Branahan in the fifth inning, the southpaw held the Monarchs to a lone hit, while his mates bumped Dean to win. The 10 runs scored while Miller was pitching resulted from successive errors in the sixth. Eddie Watt's sensational stab of Moore's cannon ball in the ninth and perfect box to Wells, who relayed at high speed to Bobo, was the final double play that took the breath out of the Monarch's penitent chances.

Bob Wallace, Speed King Wins
Another
Hubbard to Face Group of World's Greatest Sprinters
Cuban boxers scored impressively in the ring of the Commonwealth Sport Club in New York last Thursday night, when Cirilin Olanu, Cuban lightweight champion, and Eugene Fernandez, hard-hitting featherweight, triumphed over United States opponents. Flooring his foe three times, Fernandez won a technical knockout over Willie Granier of Newark, N. J., in the third round, after Olanu had obtained a judge's decision against Kid Dube of Maine in 1980. Fernandez made short work of his foe after failing to get started in the first two rounds. Opening the third of what was to have been a ten-round, he toppled the New Jersey boxer for a count of nine with a straight right drive to the head. Two additional knockdowns were scored before the referee halted the match.
Olnano was on top of Dube throughout the match hammering him with a heavy right which kept Dube on the defensive during the greater part of the contest. In the final round Dube allied furiously and beat back the latter in a furl of rights, but the latter finished strongly with a big point lead.
The auspicious beginning of the fall racing season in Maryland at the Baltimore County Bowl. Monday, was featured by some of the rarest sport ever seen on that track.
The hero of the day was C. P. Jackson, a colored jockey, who rode his mount, South Breeze, owned by Mrs. J. M. Black of Baltimore, to a victory in the third race the flat feature. The race for 3-year olds and up at one and one-sixteenth mile for a purse of $1,000.
Jackson took his mount to the front of his seven opponents at the rise of the barrier and always held an advantage during the run twice around the oval. The time for the winner was 1:49 1-5.
Tiger Flowers won another one at Cleveland, Ohio, last Monday, when the referee stopped his scheduled 10-round battle with Todd Moore from New Orleans in the sixth round because of the latter's poor showing.
Robert (Rob) Wallace triumphed in the special Labor Day 26 mile auto race at the Thornton speedway in Chicago, beating Bill Caron by a few seconds. Wallace recently won the 100 mile race and glory sweepstakes at Indianapolis.
DeHart Hubbard of the University of Michigan, the world's greatest broad jumper and one of the best sprinters in competition, will make his initial competitive appearance in Gotham next Monday. He will be a starter in the series of sprint races at the international night track meet being staged by the New York Chapter, Knights of Columbus, at the Yankee Stadium. Hubbard will be opposed by Loren Murchison, Jackson V. Scholz, Alfred Leoneoy, Chester Bowman and Jimmy Todd, a group of the world's greatest sprinters.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 9. - More than 550,000 farms in the United States, 35,000 of them in Missouri and 35,000 in Kansas, are equipped with radio. The department of agriculture makes this estimate following a nationwide survey through county agricultural agents. A similar survey in 1924 showed 365,000 farms with radio sets, and in 1923 only 145,000 such farms.
Farmers in the corn belt section are the greatest users of radio. Illinois with 40,000 sets on farms leads the list. New York and Iowa are next, each with 39,000; the number on Nex brains farm is 34,000.
The man who won't argue is the one who wins the argument.

A timorous people confound not win the battles that have been fought here in Kirkwood.
We know we have fought a good light and one worth while to mention. We are about three years old.
We have compelled big things, yet there is room for improvement.
In heroic deeds and suffering, we endure without dimching. It is therefore necessary to continue ourselves and the generation that we have to educe, that the time for rest has not yet arrived. We must talk and sing too.
We must do them one at a time, and by so doing we do them well.
When the "Segro is organized" his enemy fears him, but as long as he is divided he is imputed upon more and more. We must do the good work that has been assigned to us. We don't mean to do any bodily harm, but we are simply going to demand one rights as citizens.

"The Children of the Sun"
Questions pertaining to Negro history anywhere, if of general interest and not too long, will be answered by Mr. Parker in this column. Why will not permit or the subject is not suitable, letters will be personally answered, subject to proper limitations, and when a stamped envelope is enclosed, Address all communications to George Wells Parker, the Associated Negro Press, 3423 Indiana Avenue, Chicago, Illinois.
Were the Pyramids built for tombs or astronomical observatories? C. L. K. Denison, Texas.
The Pyramids were built to tombs for the dead. That they have certain astronomical aspects is true, but these appear to have been secondary to the main purpose, which was that they were built as tombs for the Egyptians. What better proof that the Egyptians built which we do not process? P. D. G. Springfield, Ohio.
Many. Their purpose, nobody, their shuffling, leaving costs, but a few secrets which we do not know.
Wis. Zion an African gold! C. C. V. Boston, Mass.
Zions was originally Crotan. The Crotans were descendants of African demons and Nazi supposed that Zions was an African deity inscribed as he was believed to have once dwelt in the house of the Pharaoh.

Who was Jehroel? D. K. T. Fulton Ky.
Jehroel was a priest of Midian and the father inlaw of Moses. He was of African descent.
What was the greatest city of an ancient Ethiopia? G. H. Kenyans Gili Mount.
The city of Meredith, often called the Kingdom of Meredith, himself as it was situated on an island north of Egypt. Late archarchologists have claimed the original Ethiopia stretched closer to the northern littoral of Arta, including over the Gold Coast. If this is true then Ethiopia was in a very extensive area.
Is it true that some Negroes have submitted to the K. K. K. R. N. Los Angeles City Police?
Hardly. The very purpose of the Klim tribes them. If there are any Negroes in it, is that they are passing to Nodle.

Mrs. G. H. H. My dear lady, don't you know that pure white hair is the only thing. Nothing is more hospitable than a head of prettiest gray hair, especially when the passenger has a worthful glove and hats.
Although I have always had great success with hair dying. I always do it well.
vise the customer against the practice, but there are always people who will try anything once.
Since your hair has been ruined, why not cut it as close to your head as is safe and wear a white transformation until it grows out again. In a few months it will be grown out and be a solid color, and then your hair will not contain all of the colors of the rainbow.
Halon—Plucking the eyebrows is a painful process. Why not shave them if they must be shaved. However a little waxy wapped applied with a cotton pad just before plucking may smooth the tender skin around the eyebrows.
Miss Jacqueline—There seems to be a divided opinion among the authors as to whether or not we should wash our faces with some or use colo cream to clean our faces.
Personally, I think the constant use of cold cream alone elonges the pores. Each night, before retiring, I would wash my face in fairly hot water, using a pure *custard soap*. A fine cannel hair brush in a course wash cloth dries. I be used vigorously, respectively, in Chicago, where dust and grime gather quickly.
I would use a sponge. Sponges are cooled and they invite infection, but then the greatest asset to good health.
Of course the face should be rinsed in several waters until no soap remains. After that, if the skin is in need of drying, a little cold cream can be applied with good results.

Academic Education—
Our boss says "too many young Negroes do not value sufficiently the importance of laying a good foundation in school to build their future, which we would find hard to attain." The gold of gift and the lure of the social world are yearly taking a heavy toll from the academic class rooms, where youths in their "teens" should be absorbing English, Algebra. History and kindred subjects of useful training in preparedness. There are two distinct elements involved in the academic courses which Youth should greedily addroar to grasp. (1) The foundation of possessives, and (2) brain training. The latter units Youth to refined contacts, and the latter give him power and reasoning capacity when dealing with life's inter problems.
Too often those Youth argue that Physics and Geometry will not add to his prestige as a butcher, baker or mollestek macker. Yet actual experience argues that the youth teachs in academic lines is superiority of effort over his contrasty, regardless of the occupations, each may be pursuing. And the brain exercise which comes from concentration in preliminary and high school courses is Youth for stern battles with the great things of life. In this day and time there is no excuse for Youth's early abandonment of the academic class room, where he may avail himself of education's essentials. There are countless night and day high schools; and last but not least there are schools of correspondence from which a fair knowledge of academic courses may be gained.
Negro youth, each day meeting a strenuous life of double competition, within and without the race, owe a special duty to themselves and their racial seniors to ground themselves in the virtues of academic studies. State and public are working hand in hand in supplying funds and equipment for this training; and whether looking toward the trades, industries, or other grim jobs, Youth should, for his and his sake, deeply of the spring of knowledge. Particularly, Youth should make sure that he has trained the public school courses up to the grades of the university.
On Board Dixie Land's Special
Believe it or not, last week we spent a "delightful" six-hour period riding a Jim Crow car just behind the entrance of a Dixieland Special. We traversed the Mississippi border through Tom Lee's district. We were a bit unacmy from the time the conductor said: "What you goin', boy?" to the time alighted at Princeton, Ky., and found the "colored waiting room. We had not tried to purchase Pullman seats because a porter told us the conductor told him that the company had ordered that no such accommodations should be sold to colored passengers. Furthermore, a colored woman who had recently escaped through on a Pullman from Chicago had been handled very roughly just a few weeks prior to our "pleasure" trip.
Anyhow, on boarding the Dixieland Special we were cautiously guided to the engine end of the Jim Crow car, great palms being taken least we come in contact with the white folks. This particular coach was a "mixed" smoker. That is to say, it was for colored ladies, gentlemen, and children—but it was a smoker right on. The non-smoker car was for whites only. The conductor ambitions audited his accounts in the Jim Crow coach, and of course, no one dared to trespass the sacred seat of the "Captain." An indistinct colored porter seemed to be performing a myrid of duties. He was first assistant to the "Captain" as well as the brakeman. Now—and then he gave the engineer a signal at the conductor's bidding. He kept the Jim Crow coach clean; and when the white coach behind developed a hot box, he seemed to be the only expert present who was versed in packing boxes and greasing the cups. For these duties, I learned he received the princely sum of fifty-five bucks per month, with occasional tips.
So far as we could see, the colored passengers matched the whites in intelligence, conduct and general appearance. Now and then brothers in overall boarded the Jim Crow coach, in greater numbers than the whites occasionally, a white passenger would enter the coach, and upon seeing its content, would hasten to find his "oppa." The side was genuinely depressing, but not without some inspiration, for just before we crossed the Ohio, a brother looked up and said, "I know you, mister, don't think this is the case." He is going to last much longer. My people are getting tired of it and the companies don't like it. I wouldn't be surprised if some day it's broken up." And we breathed a sigh of relief as we changed trains to just a plain, ordinary B. & O. day coach, mixed and without the soiled looks of suplicon we had observed on board the Dixieland Special.
An Italian Protest
According to Count Antonio Clippone, an Italian Fassist, Falf Friginey is now dreaming of a supremacy in Northern Africa similar to Germany's pre-war dreams. The Count assures that it is now the French policy to exert oppression in Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco, and assimilate a gigantic program of continental expansion palsom. In this contemplation, the weaker wing of French sardon must.
bend to the group of solifish projectionists who would elevate the strong upon the backs of the weak. There must be keen virtue; both commercially and economically, in Africa; so intense are the efforts, of nations to exploit her resources. King Leopold, of Belgium, had his day in Africa, and paid his toll. Great Britain has tencelonely elung to her African holdings with 99-year lease and other instrumentalities which permit self aggrandizement. And now comes France according to Cippice, with eager hands of invasion of the moral rights of a peaceful people, who have paid their respects to France in past years by sending "shock" troops to line the battle trenches in defense or offense of France.
Of course, it does not take a Buncoft or a Mussy to forsell the failure of such selfish aim. The period of international proscription is about it at its end. This truth is realized the world over, even to Dixieland and France, if it is really seeking a supremacy bled upon conquest, physical or economic, is wasting her usefulness upon a desert which is strewn with the bleaching bones of vanquished conquest seakers.
John Temple Graye; Dereased
Our old newspaper colleague, Editor Ryan of Ryan, an Ryan's weekly, Tacoma, Washington, was kind enough to refresh our recollection of the Atlanta, Ga. plots and flowing blood of Atlanta streets where hundreds of innocent Negroes were winnowly slain. Editor Ryan was an investigation was started by the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce and the best white people of the South rushed to Atlanta. The Church took an equally prominent part, John Temple Grives, teaching with hats, was asked to leave Atlanta. Negroes were asked by the Chamber of Commerce to tell their side of the story and a tale unfolded that put the Rev. John activities to shame.
Exit John Temple Graves, nationally mourned here of the white press and wielder of a pen of blood and conquest, bestirring racial hatred and condoning crime. Such literary exploits as Mr. Graves performed were surely overblown by his prolonged fomentation of trouble between the graves in Atlanta. Thus it is, that the civil some men do is written in the hands of forgetfulness and washed away, while their "noble" deeds are made the play toys of typesetters and thievic experts of that sector of the great white press which still advocate racism and rioting.
We deed to being homage to all men, both past and present, and of whatever hurt their complication might be; but Editor Ryan is right in his portrayal of the departed John Temple Graves, whose soul, we gray, is resting in peace, but whose contributions to one hundred per cent Americans and were fulfilled by his conduct towards the dark tenth part of America's population.
A Daniel Come To Judgment-
A Panel Come to Judgment—
"There is a good deal of humbness
to the Anglo-Saxon superiority,
touching the Anglo-Saxon superiority,
though many clinging desperately
to such a belief," rewinds the editor
of the Cincinnati Enquirer to
the mournful monologue of President Wanamaker of the American Cotton Association, who recently said: "It may be gravely questioned whether America is any longer,
in the fullest sense of the word, an Anglo-Saxon nation. Eliminate the pure strains of blood that still continue to flow in the veins of the South and West, and it certainly is so. In the South the Anglo-Saxon country dominant, but here there are millions of color, who have no adequate common of what true Anglo-Saxonism is." regret there is where President Wanamaker spilled the beans, as the Cincinnati Enquirer thoughtfully admits.
The millions of colored people in the South and elsewhere have no quarrel with those who would preserve the purity of Anglo-Saxon blood. And, quite contrary to the theory of President Wanamaker, they quite thoroughly understand the whims of the blood supremacy in the solid territory named by the cotton manufacturer. To them the Anglo-Saxon corpuscles speak in stirring terms of Jim Crowism, sought to be made applicable to every sphere of life traversed by America's black people. If this be supremacy, then God forbid its contempt in any race. Rather be it its acquiler mildly implies to President Wanamaker, "that America of tomorrow is Anglo-Saxon, but it need be none the less a land of free people—of democracy, freedom and independence."
To which we would gratefully adi "amen"—for even as Lincoln said a nation could not endure half slave and half free, neither can a country which is striving to merit the standards of true democracy endure while an element of its content I am over and other struggling element, if an holier than thou" has no place in America—at least George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, General Grant and Theodore Roosevelt did not think so. And they were Anglo-Saxons, too.
National Negro Bar.
Under the inspirational leadership of
John George H. Woodson, of Des
Moine Hill, Missouri, he has been
invited to fill an application
for membership in the American Bar
Association, a groun of eminent
Negro counsellors at law recently
hold a conference and organized
themselves into a National Negro Bar
Association, with regional directors
in various districts of the country. This
new legal body will, of course, in
the groupal sense, promote quasis-fraternism, professional integrity, greater
intensive training, and more intre-
sive training, and attorneys among
diligency of organization among colored
lawyers similar to that exemplified
by the American Bar Association,
from which, for no meritorious rea-
son, Negro attorneys are barred in
this day and time, although Hon.
William H. Lewis, of Massachusetts,
was admitted some time ago.
The law, if no where else, color
should be irrelevant; and there is
some else likely to do whether a Negro Bar Association
quickens or diminishes some concious
ness of racial differences. Be that
as it may, if both the white and the
colored profession will look at the
We Tell the Truth ---when we say: "We print anything from a tag to a newspaper."
spectacle of the new Bar Body in the proper way, much good can be accomplished by the Woodson creation within the next decade; and if we were able to speak as a unit in behalf of the National Negro Bar Association here is what we would briefly tell the world:
"We, the colored lawyers of the United States, duly qualified as citizens under, and advocates of the law, knowing that the justice of law and of equity recognize no legal color distinction between citizens of the United States, but realizing that selfishness has, by color barriers, frequently exalted itself to the prejudice of the right, have gathered ourselves together, not because of any feeling of inferiority either as citizens or as members in good standing of the American Bar, but, rather because we, in mass formation, believe that we can, by compact example, illustrate the fallacy of racial differences in this country, and help the weak to reason out just-why the law has created all men free and equal.
"We khall adhere to a policy of training for ourselves and for others, in the larger hope that some day the law, both oral and written, shall assert itself. The formation of our association is not to be construed as an abandonment of our activities in local and other bar associations, to which we are morally and legally eligible as members. It is merely a racial parent body—a directorate, as it were, of our bill of particulars as inseparable parts of the great American Brotherhood, whose theories we intend to prosecute from precepts cos we are resolved to improve.
"It would be better. If the Negroes had a prosperous state of their own, but that would take a miracle to bring about," says the editor of the Chicago Tribune in his explosions of August 11, 1825, upon the luminous subject of Russian Sovietism, which, co-cludes the editor, "If spread seriously through the American Negro population" might materialize into an attempt, on the part of Negroes to deprive the whites of their property and their government. What pathetic and terrible nonsense!" The Windy City Editor is quite correct in resorting to the word "Nonsense"; only he did not give it wide enough-play in his plattitudinal editions. "Nothing in the Good Book which indicates that Negroes grove the "corner" of white man's property; or government; or, for that matter, of the white man's Heaven or Hell, the latter of which, we ophia will be available to all qualified applicants upon the basis of share and share alike.
We recall another white. advocate of a separate state for Negroes who tried to interest us in such a project. He prescribed some cactus and alfalfa land in the southwestern U. S. A. and when we told him that inasmuch as we came from the "wicked" but wealth. State of New.York—an area which we might be willing to consider in case the separate state idea becomes a reality, he said, like the Tribune-Editor, that it would take a miracle to bring it about—that is the allotment of New York, or Pennsylvania, or New Jersey, or Illinois, for that matter.
Separate state advocates, and each and every one of them believe just as the Tribune Editor believes, that the government and the country belong to the white man. (Their theory is something like the legal theory of "finding." The "finding" of property takes title against everybody but the "owner.") The Indians and others who at one time were monarchs of the district they lived over here, including the district over the Chicago Tribune Editor now holds and dashes off "funny" editorials, been thrown into the discord, and only hundred per centers (whatever they are) can swell their breasts and sing "My Country, Tis of Thee." (what pathetic and terrible nonsense!)
What a tragedy it woul be if all "Americans" were boiled down to the nth degree, their alloy knocked off.
and their true substance left remaining.
If this were done, or to go a step farther, if the Chicago Tribune were dependable, for make-up and sales, upon one hundred per centers only, we wonder how long it (the Tribune) would last.
No no Mr. Editor: America is the world experiment of national Godliness, where poet and pessant may dwell in peace and harmony and love.
The twinship of Americans, despite race or color, is the one thing by which we know that man was made in the image of God; and unless there is a separate state hereafter, we need not separate here; for even if we miss seeing God here, we don't want to miss seeing Him hereafter. Do you, Mr. Editor?
Trade Schools. Have a Care—
The rumor has come from a number of prominent cities that vocational and trade school facilities are frequently advising. Negro students against taking certain courses, as to which, say the advisors, there is no demand for Negro graduates. In not a few cases of this kind, students who have been selected in taking the subjects which they had originally selected, have been diverted to other courses only to suffer the embarrassment later in life of receiving a call for the first chosen work, but being unable to accept the call because of being trained therefor.
Public school trade courses and vocational subjects belong to the taxpayers, and, through them, are imputed to the public benefit. In their appointment to students, it is readily admitted, the vocational guides and course directors have important duties to perform. Nevertheless, the student has some rights in the matter, one of which is to select, by and with the advice of his parents or guardian, the subject or course which he and they desire. Having done so, it is no part of the intention of those who make the public schools available, that the student should be disarranged or" persuaded by, in school "whenever there are no proper about, seeing New York or certain choice trades or vocations. Rather, the student should be left free to go his own trade way and accept his own responsibility for the future. It was Abraham Lincoln who said: "I shall study and prepare myself: some day my opportunity may come." And it is an unconscionable deed in these modern times to quell the initiative of ambitious youths by providing them through the taxpayers' money, with "something just as good." Trade School, please have a care!
