White People In Seventeen Cities Battling Hard To Keep Negroes From Owning Their Own Homes In Certain Districts.
U. S. SUPREME COURT TO HEAR ONE CASE IN NOV.
Ku Klux Klan Is Responsible For Movement, It Is Said Bitter Race Feeling Is Engendered.
The white people in seventeen cities of the United States have launched a segregation campaign against the Negroes, according to reports gathered by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
The wording in most of these new forms of segregation is, by agreement among property owners, not to se rent or lease to any person of "tican descent."
Klan Held Responsible
is just within the last few years the agreement form of resident institution has found fertile soil in hearts of the white people of Africa. It is the general belief of who have given the matter closer that the rapid rise of the Ku Klan in these cities is responsible for the spread of the segregation as. Instances where "hired" Klanakers have spent days among property owners spreading all kinds of propaganda against the Naziess to order to get the owners to can have been cited. Recent court decisions have given impulses to the movement.
Playing Up Race Prejudice
These Klan agents' chief stock in trade has been social equality. Intermarriage, consecration of property, etc. in one instance was reported that the Klan agent told the owner "keeping the Negro down," depended upon his signing the petition. This kind of stuff has even been taken to the judges on the bench for their consumption.
Some Causes For Alarm
Leaders of the race and colored people generally in the U. S. are beginning to become somewhat alarmed over the situation. The words of the poet: "Sure I must fight if I would reign. Increase my courage, Lord. have been the mainstay and comfort to a struggling people. Fights, physical combats and court fights have followed in the wake of these segregation attempts.
Better Conditions. Sought
Leaders among the race and those
who have purchased property in the
"forbidden land," declare that it
is only an effort on the part of the
colored people to improve their living
conditions; is being maintained that
it is the constitutional right of the
citizen to buy and sell real estate
without interference on the part of
individuals or the state.
Bitter Feeling Engendered
This fight against the colored
people has precipitated a bad racial
felling between the colored and whites
generally, which is looked upon with
disfavor by many of the leading white
people of the nation. No one, thus
far, has come forward with a practical
solution of the situation that seems to be acceptable by all parties
directly concerned.
U. Supreme Court
One case, coming from the lower
courts of the District of Columbia,
is now before the United States Supreme
Court. It is expected that a hearing will be given the case about
the last of November or the first of
December this year. It is thought that
this decision from the highest
court of the land will have the effect
of settling this question, so far as

Klan Turning From Attacks
On Negroes, Jews And the
Catholics To Sap Strength
Of Government
DISFRANCHISEMENT
DANGER DEVELOPING
Situation In East Is Growing Acute. Huge Racial And Religious Riots Are Likely To Result.
SCHENECTADY, N. Y., Oct. 14—Whileo Americans live in a fool's paradise hedged about on all sides by prejudice and intolerance, the Ku Klux Klan enters the most threatening phase of its life. With business dosing over its own affairs and reformers arising with new shouts of "thou shalt not," the klan has become one of the most Jews and Negroes to sap the strength of American government, which it wants for itself. That was the burden of a renewed attack on the klan made here Thursday by Major Henry Fry, who four years ago left its ranks to fight it.
Major Fry spoke before the Schenectady open forum under suspices of the Unitarian Laymap's lease.
"Main Street" Rules Nation
"In my opinion, the Ku Klux Klan has now entered into its most dangerous phase," he declared, "but before going into that I want to remind you of something that every student of political life in America must take into consideration. People in large cities, like Chicago and Chicago calling constanty at the crudities of Main street and the ignorance of Babbits, but as a matter of fact, the entire destiny of the United States lies in the hands of the people in small cities, towns and states, and when Mr. Babbit of Main street holds out the political hoop, Mr. Know-It-All from Broadway must jump through hoop whether he wants to or not.
This is so because the constitution grants citizens of small states a powerful weapon, Major Fry explained, in the right to amend the constitution by a three-quarter vote of states.
"Disfranchisement Looms"
"Now here is what is going to happen in this country unless business men awake from their slumbers," he said. "The klan situation in eastern industrial sections is becoming more acute. As the klan grows stronger among businessmen, they are going to see a gigantic racial and religious riot that may tear industry to shreds. The small states that control the constitutional amendments are likely to start a movement to amend the constitution of the United States, disfranchising Catholics, Jews and Negroes. And if this happens—you may draw your own conclusions."
WORKMAN ELECTROCUTED
LOS ANGELES, Calif., Oct. 14—A corner's guy investigating the death of Harry Hickman, 30 year old mechanic, at the East Slaucon avenue branch of the Southern California Iron and Steel plant, pennounced the death due to accident.
Hickman is believed to have stumbled and fell into an electric generator. He was dead when workman found him near one of the huge dynamos. His body was severely burned. Hickman was a skilled mechanic. He had been employed at the Southern California Iron and Steel Company for a number of years.
Though his land and its inhabitants are under the sovereignty of Great Britain, the natives have been left free to rule themselves after their own fashion, matters of taxes, law and education alone, receiving outside direction; They are a peace-loving and somewhat poetic people. Originally the Fantas came from the nook and working their way toward the sea, conquered the inhabitants of the coast. But they have forgotten their old warlike ways. Chief Amosh was elected the head of his tribe in 1914, war conditions preventing, however his ascent to the throne until 1919. The term "elected" is a little misleading. Nana Amosh

JAMES C. DUKE BENEFACTOR OF RACE IS DEAD
JAMES C. DUKE BENEFACTOR OF RACE IS DEAD
Born In Log Cabin, Built Up Gigantic Industry. Application And "Stick-to-ity" Secret Of Success.
WAS PHILANTHROPIST
Gave $40,000,000 For Educational And Public Institutions. Remembered Neighbors In His Gifts.
NEW YORK, Oct. 14 — James Buchanan Duke, formerly president of the American Tobacco Company, one of the nation's leading philanthropists, died, of bronchial pneumonia at his Fifth avenue residence Saturday.
Duke was not only well known among the white race for his magnanimity in lending financial aid to their institutions, but he was also widely known as a helper of the colored race and its institutions.
His gifts to colored educational institutions run up to millions. He did much to elevate the facilities for the learning of the
"Auto Make" Man
"The owner of the white palace on the Northeast corner of Fifth avenue and Seventy-eight street, ross from-much poverty that he is often called "one of the last of the log cabin successes of American life." He was born in 1857 on the hill above the river and his brothers started the great tobacco industry through which he built up his vast wealth, which is estimated at from $100,000,000 to $150,000,000. He owns a 3000 nook park around his home in Durham. Duke is survived by a daughter, Lee Holt Duke and an older brother Benjamin.
Secret of Success
"I have succeeded in business not because I have more natural ability than many people who have not succeeded, but because I have applied myself harder and stuck to it longer. I know plenty of people who have failed to succeed in anything who have more brains than the ones that lacked application and determination.
"I had confidence in myself. I said to myself, 'If John D. Rockefeller can do what he is doing in oil, why should I not do it in tooboe?' I resolved from the time I was a mere lad to do a big business. I loved business better than anything else. I worked from early morning to leave on at night and glad when morning came so that I could get at it again. Any young man with common intelligence can succeed, if he is willing to apply himself. Superior brains are not necessary."
Gave $40,000,000
Mr. Duke's gift of $40,000,000 is the largest benefaction ever made at one time by a single person excepting one man. Of the best that percent was assigned to go to Negro and white orphans in North and South Carolina, and four percent to Johnson C. Smith University, a Colored Institution of Charlotte.
In announcing his gift, Mr. Duke said that the $40,000,000 would include, among other securities, approximately three-fourths of the money in the southern Power System. His reason for establishing the fund was thus expressed at the time:
"I don't believe that a college education does a man much good in business, except for the personal satisfaction it gives him. But when you have a great community growing like the Carolinas, you've got to have five kinds of leaders whose minds are trained. The first is preachers, the second is teachers, the third is lawyers, the fourth is chemists and engineers, and the fifth is doctors."
HONOR STREET SWEEPER
NEW YORK, Oct. 14- For eighteen years Charles A. Small, veteran street cleaner, swept his way nightly down Broadway, from Seventy-second to Fifty-ninth street. For eighteen years he did his job, and did it well, with an occasional smile or nuded from passersby, and never a thought of reward. Today he has a glistening gold medal and a shiny gold fountain as a reminder that meritocratic service is recognized in all walks of life. The medal was presented to him by David Robinson, president of the Downtown League and chairman of the Columbus Circle League.
SANE PERSONS IN ASYLUM
WASHINGTON, Oct. 14. "Witnesses before the District of Columbia federal grand jury testified that there are many persons now confined in St. Elizabeth's, a government hospital for the insane, "who are not now and who never were insane." It is charmed that these persons were sent to the hospital for ulceration motives. More than 1,000 war veterans are confined in this institution. The hospital houses 4,400 patients, and the report infers that they are packed in like sardines.
All insects have six legs, and their bodies are divided into three parts: spiders have eight legs and are not insects, but belong to the order Arachnida.
Governor Orders Investigation Of Whipping Post
GREENVILLE, N. C. Oct. 11—Acting upon instructions from Governor A. W. McCain, Secretary Jesse Davis was in Greenville Tuesday afternoon enroute to Farmville to make a rigid investigation of the recent flagger administered to Dr. S. J. B. Collins, a physician at that place, by a hooded gang. Dr. Collins, who is a British subject, was said to have been instructed by his assistants to leave the town but instead he appealed to the British Wednesday. Solicitor Davis received a message from the vice consulate in Wilmington urging a thorough investigation.
According to rumors dropped here and there by whites, known to be members of the Ku Klux Klan, it is claimed that Dr. Collins goes about among his Negro friends and in fact wherever possible and makes many expressions of an insulting nature with reference to the recent Ku Klux Klan demonstrations staged at Farmville. The whites claim that on several occasions Dr. Collins has made public speeches in Negro schools and elsewhere made efforts to fill the minds of Negroes here with ideas against the klan and of social equality between the white and Negro races. It is said that the whites here declare that they will not stand for such impudence on the part of any Negro, who is not even a good citizen of this county, trying to put such foolish notions in the heads of the good Negroes of this vicinity. Such foolishness will bring on disgraceful clashes between the races. It is for the good of the community that such agitators as Dr. Collins be gotten rid of.
MQ. CITIES' POPULATION

Mrs. Anna Gentry of 2521 Olive Street, received burns which proved fatal Friday morning, when she attempted to hurry up a fire in her kitchen range by applying kerosene. The husband is confined in City Hospital No. 2 suffering burns sustained in an effort to save his wife.
Little did the industrious woman realize what grim tragedy lurked near when she arose early Friday morning and began her household duties. A kerosene can, from which she is said to have poured oil onto a fire she had built, exploded, spreading fuming fluid over her thin wraps. She ran into the living room where her husband, Henry Gentry, was drowsying wrapping in to his abdomen as she was awakening from an engineer.

HAS CONF. WITH GOVERNOR
Langston Harrison, Constable of the Fourth District, and Ernest Patillo, a member of the Republican State Committee from the Twelfth District and a Deputy Constable, made a trip to Jefferson City last week and report a pleasant conference with Governor Baker. The conferences are quite reluctant to tell what the Governor said, but it is understood that the Governor's deepest concern just now seems to be the nominating and election of Senator Williams. The visitors told the Governor about certain conditions in their district, citing that nothing had been done by the State administration for the Negroes. Police officers were also discussed with the Governor. Reference was made of the so-called lily-white meetings throughout the state in the interest of Senator Williams where no Negroes were involved. C. G. Williams joined Patillo and Harrison in the conference which was held at the Governor's mansion. Little is known of what "C. G." said except to nod both ways to whatever was being said.

MRS. SHELTON'S PLAY
Mrs. Shelton presented her prize play, "The Church Fight," last Friday night, to a wonderful audience. A very high class musical program, rendered by some of our best artists, composed the first part of the program. Then followed the playletter, "The Church Fight," which was one, but short—too short—for lovers of the "Theloys Plays." St. Louis has seen so many wonderful plays from the pen of this writer, it seems impossible for them to appreciate the literary value of this playletter. However, Mrs. Shelton promises more and better plays in the future. Watch for them.

CITIZENS COUNCIL NOTES
The annual meeting held at Taber-

was the beginning of the Bettermor-
nicle Campaign for our group in St. Louis.
The plans prepared were presented by
Press. S. A. Moseley, who tendered
his resignation as president, stating
that the Council plans were of such
importance that he could not give
them the needed attention, as his
church work required all of his efforts,
and asked that his successor be chosen at once.
Mr. Moseley served the sentiment
of the Council in selection of a suc-
cessor to the presidency, and con-
ducted Ernest Pastil, a member of
the Republican State Committee.
Mr. Pastil was unanimously elected
president and announced his inten-
tion to carry on the wise plans of
Dr. Moseley and pledged himself to
serve faithfully and untruly the best interest of our group.
The next session will be at Taber-
nacle Church, 2718 Pine boulevard;

FANTASY
Wild ducks that sail against the
midnight sky.
Quiet waters, luseless and evening
winds.
Bending rushes—tang of salty air.
Hidden stars and visionary clouds.
Lilies, white, that the upon the lake
Glenaird swell upon the rippling
swells.
Perfuming the air, like ghost they
dwell—
Phantoms of the night. Ily winged things
Searching far into the dull grey gloom
Restless as the winds, that fan the palms
Fevered to be ever in the sky;
Jewelled music floats along the bay,
Dreamy, tasting of the Orchid.
Passion put into the cestasy of some weird throbbing son.
And lond it swells, gress the star-
to take the rushes as they bend from blade to side;
And then it fades into the fly's breast.
Where all is hushed—the coulds unfold their wings.
And speed away into the slumbrous night,
Leaving naught but a lovely memory.
-Josephine Upton.

PATRONIZE THE ST.LOUIS MUSIC ASSOCIATION
In order to put recitale on a sub-

Association must have at least two
hundred guarantors. Every one
wants to see the very best artists
come to St. Louis, and feel that
their art is appreciated. We do not
want artists to say as they have
said: "Do not go to St. Louis un-
less you want to perform to an empa-
glement and take chances on get-
ting your tickets." We want them
to receive the warm welcome we
that only St. Louis is available
of giving. To the front, St. Louis
let us do our duty in guaranteeing
music in our city.
If you are interested and do not think you can spare the five dollars at one time, see some of the workers and see what arrangements can be made, or call Miss Grazia Corneal Delmar 1534, 1102 N. Pendleton, but be sure and secure a season ticket.

LETTLE SAMMIE BROWN
St. Luke boys and girls who can
consider if a terrible thing to have
to go to school day after day and learn
"reading," stilt and matte, with
receive, scent, sympathy. And one
year old Samile Hewan, a little Nite-
gro boy, who sits day after day with
a silver tube down his throat, wishing
he could go to school and learn
like the rest of the kids he sees run-
ming and running by his windows.
For six years, little Sammy has been a ward of the Children's Aid Society, one of the agencies of the Community Fund. He is in an excellent foster home, selected by the Society, and counts himself in that respect, even though he cannot attend school and must cut through a tube instead of like a regular fellow. When only three, Sammy are some lye one day. Hence, the tale in his thief. The tissues are healing, but it must be careful. He did get some "book learning" from his foster brother, who was unhulky killed recently. Now the Society is booking for a teacher for Sammy twice a week. They are willing to pay a nominal sum for such service, and Sammy sure hopes they hurry and find him. He has his books all ready to begin.
Sammy is only one of the many children under care of the Children's Aid Society, for which the Community Fund will seek contributions during its annual drive November 13 to 23, inclusive.
KISMET CAST SELECTED WITH UNUSUAL CARE
'In the selection of the characters for the fourth annual Urban League play, "KISMET," the big oriental play to be given at the Odeon Theatre, November 6th, unusual care has been taken to secure persons who had special qualifications for the parts to be played, and in each instance the director was extremely fortunate in finding persons for whom each part seemed to be made to order. It is not often that any play is rendered by a company, practically all of whom are stars, as is the case with "Kismet," in which the idea of the quality of players who are to appear in this wonderful production, the names of a few of the principal characters have been made public.
The leading character, Hajj, the Beggar and Thief of Bagdad, and around whom the play is built will be played by Robert P. Waltz. Playing opposite Mr. Watts, will be Mrs. Pernia Alexander Phillips, in the part of Mahm, the beautiful man of Haraj, who displayed remarkable talent and the public is due to get some unusual thrills out of the way if which she handles all the difficult situations of the play. Mrs. Chas. H. Phillippe Jr., as Kui-El Kalub, the wife of wives of Manusur Miss Ann Cooper as Miskah, Mrs. S. P. Stafford, as Caljir, Mrs. S. Cannon, as Mahmud, the last female roles. J. S. Thomas, as Jawan, the Shiek: Thomas Jefferson, as Mansur, the Wazir; Christopher Gordon, as The Caliph: Will Alexander, as Nazir; Dr. J. J. Peters, as Zayd, Maurice A. Grant, as Amuru, Marcus Perkins, as Kasim; J. L. Melcome as Afhe; F. D. Ramsey, as Kafur; John Davies, as the Egyptian Anu, and the Arabian Mahmud, all show indications of outshining many of the professionals who were cast in those parts when it was played on Broadway. A complete list of the east, will be published later. In addition to the characters in the play proner. Ernest L. Harris, Jr. W. H. Huffman, and Mrs. Zole Cole Evans play the role of theologiae Mrs. Evans will arrange the music for the orchestra.
The advance ticket sale to date assures a capacity audience and those planning to attend should buy tickets early to avoid disappointment for good seats. Tickets are on sale by the Ticket Committee with teams captained by Mrs. Chas. E. Herriot, Mrs. S. E. Bailey, Miss Anna Segar, Miss Ollie White, Miss Elaine Sydnor, Mrs. T. J. Newins, and C. M. Evans. A silver loving cup will be awarded the leading team captains and players purchased at Harris' Pharmacy, Cox's Pharmacy, Brown's Pharmacy, Foro College, Y. M. C. A. Y. W. C. A., and the Urban League. The play is being given for the benefit of the Urban League Building Fund. "For this is the story of FATE, which the poets call "KISMET".

JAZZ BAND FEATURES
"BUZZIN'" HARRI'S SHOW AT
THE BOOKER, THIS WEEK
The jazziest Jazz Band that has ever entertained the patrons at the Booker Washington Theatre, is being featured in Harris "Hits and Bits of 1925" this week. John Williams is leader of this organization styled, "The Broadcasting Band," and their playing is really being broadasted throughout the city this week. Williams is surrounded by a bunch of musicians who get all the notion possible out of their popular music, and the audience is highly entertained from the first to last in their special stage presentation.
"Hits and Bits" is a revival of the popular songs, dances, and comedy doings of the year, and covers the field nicely for a short show. It begins with a singing and dancing chorus of girls which introduces some of the principals: Curley Drysdale, William Harris, John Williams and Alletta Harris. The latter registers an immediate hit singing "Playing For Mamma." Harris and Williams, the comedians, and Drysdale, as a cop, then launch their comedy doings which is gross for the general fun throughout the production. The special features include: Miss Harris and the girls in *Willy Wonka*, Virginia Harthy and girls in *Hall To Be You*; "Beach of Wakaki," a Hawaiian song and dance by Miss Harthy and chorus; an acoustic soft shoe bit by William Cole; "Alabama Bound," Miss Harris, and a red hot song and dance by Harris and company and a lively tune by the company. All the song numbers are accompanied by good dancing and draw hearty applause. The show, as a whole, is a good entertainer and drawing heavier lightly.

The St. Louis Stars have traveled from coast to coast, apart from Canada to China and have compiled a very good record for the season. Bell, son of national champion neither Wells, left-half shirtstop and Hobe, first snooker, are the outstanding stars of the team and each would be certain of a place in the Makers, if the color line did not bear the way. They will be in action here.

In the fourth where McNair lost of with a single by Johnson robbed Moore of a hit in center by a good catch and, Joseph singled to right. Fast fielding, hold McNair second. G.

Carr cleared the right field hold once with a home run in the sixth and Monarch failed by hitting the foul ball. a double. J. Johnson was in easy Joseph to Hawkins. Then Thomas sent a roller to Moore, who in his accuracy to make a first play, up with a handoff of dirt, his firing never getting on the ball. Monarch scored and Thomas made second.

Moore bounced a hit to right, which doubled Briggs, who came in fast to dodge Hail. The ball took a fuzzy hop and Moore got a double on in Alton soaring.

Cookrell held the Monarchs scores
until the seventh inning, his
glove and skill, backed by the splen-
lid support of his teammates, clicking
objectively the grim effort of the
Monarchs to light through to a vi-
ory that would mean at least any
other chance at the series.
Hillbake went into the lead in the north. With two out Clint Thomas doubled to right field and served on George Johnson's swing single to the left ground. In the fifth americ- by Morris placed Warfield on the paths and Muckey sent his catch across the plate with the second run.
Again in the sixth an error parcel the way for further Hildale scoring, Joseph fumbled Cockrell's grounder to third and Cockrell scored on Stevens' two-hagger to right field. Beigg's sacrifice sent Stevens along to second and Warfield drove him home with a single through third and short, giving Hildale a 3 to 9 lead.
The traditional Monarch fight came to the fore in the seventh, when Newt Allen singled, wom to second on McNair's sacrifice, stole third and scored on Hawkins' single through J. Johnson's territory.
The fans in the stands forgot the cold when McKay opened the *Hilidda* seventh by driving one of Belts' curves over the right field fence for a home run. This drive marked the end of Hilidda's scoring for the series. In the ninth successive dandies from the bats, of McNair and Moore gave the Monarchs their second run and errors by L. Johnson and Stevens after the base with one out. Pereman, sent in to Bar for Sweat, famed inglobatically. W. Bell lied out to George Johnson in the final out of the series drama.
Hilldale Loses In Jersey Exhibition
Errors by Champions Enable Kansas City Monarchs to Win Handily, 6-1
JERSEY CITY, N. J., OCT. 11, The Kansas City Monarchs defeated the Hildahlde Club, in an exhibition game at the International League Park here this afternoon G to 1. Errors proved costly for the collared world champions. Two overthrows of first base by Winters, one in the first and one in the second frame, were followed by hits and gave the Western Cith a lead in the early rounds. Brewer, a recent pitcher whom the winners failed to start in the big series, kept the Hildahlde hits well sentenced. Hildahlde's only run came in the fifth on a walk to Stevens and singles by Breggs and Warfield. Source by hurlings:

WILLS SHOWS GREAT FORM IN DETROIT BOUT
Boxes Flashy Four Rounds With The "Joplin Ghost" At An American Legion Exhibition
DETRIUM to a rapidly house topdered Harry Wills, giant Negro heavyweight and outstanding challenger for Jack Dempsey's title, a rousing reception when he crawled through the ropes for his four round exhibition at the arena Garden Friday night and just as many accorded Paddy Mullinia venerable manager of the Black Panther, a like ovation when he finally was induced to be introduced to the crowd.
The Wills exhibition was the headline attraction of the show sponsored by the American Legion. The main event of the supporting card, was a match between Tommy Burns, of Detroit and Joe Lohman, of Toledo.
Wills Shows Speed
Wills, 215 pounds of bone and muscle stepped, around the ring like a lightweight. His speed was surprising, his boxing ability great or than displayed by any heavyweight that ever showed in Detroit, and his condition excellent in view of the fact that he has had no real fights of recent date.
Incidentally, Jeff Clark, the "Jopin Ghost" of other days, was also in the ring, but Wills would have made an equally good impression had he been shadow boxing. Clark was in there catching during the four rounds and the other fellow inside the ropes was Sam Hennessy, whose duties during the exhibition were confined to ambiling around the ring.
Mike McNulty was in Wills' corner, but retained his composure much better than when Tommy Lee and Tommy Burns were throwing and catching punches. Mike's duties were nullified in the main event, however, since Wills needed no instructions.
Objection of Jack Dempsey to the proposed heavyweight fight in Newark, New Jersey, between Harry Wills and Floyd Johnson on Oct. 26 will not alter the arrangements made Tuesday, Paddy Mullins announced today.
Although the heavyweight champion has said he understood that Wills' would not engage in any bouts before their anticipated title.
battle next year, Mullins said, that Floyd Fitzsimmons, who signed Dempsey and Wills, knew the latter intended to box this month for the National Sportsman's Club of Newark.
He said he would so write Dempsey. Wills, meanwhile, will proceed to get in shape for Johnson, he added.

assistance of tha A. F. of L. in adjust.
ing any difference that might. arise
between them and the Pullman Com.
pany.
Mr. Ford declared that there 1s no
employing company in tha county
that 1s more of a friend to tts Negra
employes than the Pullman Company,
and he stated also that he knew per-
sonally and well the late. George M.
Pullman, founder of the company. and
that Mr. Pallman. himself . was de-
cldedly joyal and friendly to the No-
Bro.
‘asa matter of tact, sald-Me-Ford:
“the Pullman Company offers gteat-
er and more, desirable opportunities
to the colored workers” than any
otaer company in the U. 8. contrary
to belief in some, quarters, thet ato
i -mimber of “colored -men employed
as clerks, doing the same Kind, of
work as do other clerical -workes,
and the company gives. employment
to many craftsmen, including electri.
clans, machinists, carpehters, and
other mechanics. .
“HC 1 had x young son, it would be
my adgice to him to connect himself
with the Potman Company for. the
advantaged which are offered by that
derviee and wpiich he could get in ne
other way. Besides the’ advantage of
wide and varied travel, there ts a con.
tact with the very best ~ cle
‘ment, of the eltizenry which he could
jget_in. to other-way, and this con
tact and adoetation is of x benefit
almost immeastirable. . The pay Is

that he had saved #300 during onc
summer. Another young student
[told me that he.tiad been alo to say

“Continuing, Mr. Ford sah tha
there is a misapprehension a8 (o the

Mrs. M. D. Medical science has been baffled for years by the white splatches which appear on the face and body without any cause or serious result.
This condition is not limited to any particular racial group, but in the white, and lighter skinned people they simply do not show up plainly. These spots are very noticeable among the darker persons of our race because of the great contrast. Quite often you read in the daily papers of a case where a Negro of dark skin has turned white. I do not know of any cure for this condition which is known as loss of destruction of the skin pigment. The albines present a case of complete loss of pigment which cannot be artificially restored. There are no harmful results accompanying this condition with the exception of the damage done one's appearance. The damage one needs to be alarmed or humiliated is you have a few lice in your hair. These little parasites are able to find refuge in the hair of the rich as well as the poor, or even the dainty debilitate. This condition, generally known as pedilence, can be acquired in a hotel, Pullman car, or at a petting party.
Should the lice be few in number and you discover the attack immediately after the exposure, a cupful of vinegar in a quart of hot water poured over the head, will eradicate them. However, if they are quite numerous and nits have begun to develop, I would advise saturating the hair with a solution made of equal parts of Ether and Larkspur. Allow this solution to remain on the hair for one hour and then give a vigorous shampoo.
Allow—There is nothing on the market that will make hair which is partially gray, entirely gray.
Since you insist that something must be done to aid you and rendering assistance to our readers is my partner pleasure, permit me to make the following suggestion, with the understanding that you are not to be offended:
Produce yourself a youthful sweetheart, preferably a boy in his teens. At the end of one year's time, the attendant duties and worry attached to his bringing up, should bring about the result desired.
Miss Seventeen—Your friends say that you are beautiful and you are worried for fear that some day you might lose this wonderful asset.
Sophisticated beauty is not beauty; merely attraction. You must remember that to remain beautiful, one must be morally and spiritually beautiful, as well.
Obey the Ten Commandments, observe strict rules of living, diet, and exercise, obtain the proper rest, and read good books. Harbor no jealousy and top a sweetness of character and dissension. When you are old, gray and wrinkled, you will still be beautiful.
Haz Heck says: "Mighty few wimmin faint unless the occasion seems to call for it."
SPRINGFIELD, Illinois, October 6, (Special)—Emancipated and The Emancipated are now together, as a short sketch and photograph of the emancipated rest at the grave and monument of the emancipator in this city today. The photograph and sketch are that of the late R. H. Boyd of Nashville, Tennessee, the founder of the National Baptist Publishing Board's Plant. It was developed by the monument of the blond boy by the son of the emancipated, in the person of Henry Boyd, who delivered a stirring address on "Front Line Sunday, Schools" here Sunday.
The mass meeting was participated in by all of the Sunday Schools of the city of Springfield, the capital of Illinois. The custodian of the Lincoln Monument had been requesting a photograph and a sketch of the life of R. H. Boyd ever since the Sunday School Congress met in this city some years ago, when a committee from the Congress brought a wreath and laid it on Lincoln's monument. The custodian here said when Henry Allen brought the photograph and the sketch: "Now the emancipated can rest peacefully with the emancipator." Loyal citizens of both races regarded this as a very unique assertion and very timely remark, as noted by R. H. Boyd was born a slave and lived in the days of slavery and the civil war. After this emancipation, he began his great work during the days of reconstruction." Ignorant and unlearned when he was emancipated, he rose to spledge heights as a leader among the emancipated people.
He was elevated to the highest position in the gift of his denomination, the Negro Baptist, and he built for his race and denomination one of the greatest institutions in the country. He was respected and honored because of his safe leadership, his sane advice and his loyalty to the country. "The late Dr. Boyd was therefore, regarded as a leader of ability and note." Said a leader of the race here today.

My dandruff all left me and my hair began to get so soft and silky that it was a delight to comb it."

SIKESTON, MO.
The third annual session of the Second Division of the Southeast District Association for Colored Teachers at Washington High School Caruthersville, Mo. Oct. 9, 10. It was rated as being one of the best sessions held in the history of the organization. Many vital issues of the latest issues of the day were thoroughly discussed by teachers who are prepared to take care of the situation. Each teacher responded readily at the calling of the roll with the necessary finance to, put the program over. Everyone, seemingly, was filled with new inspiration. Prof. W. C. Bruck, State Inspector, and Miss Auclair Hayden, Domestic Science teacher of Kirkwood, motored from St. Louis and were in simple time for the meeting. Prof. Bruce lectured to the teachers along the line of school work. He clearly stated the necessity of prepared men and women in the professional world. The adjustment conditions in order may be given to the Negro boys and girls as is given to the whites in order that our boys and girls may have an opportunity to do effective work and prove themselves worthy and lift the standard of the race along the professional lines was also discussed. Prof. Bruce is in a position to know the facts in the case relative to the city and rural schools for Negro boys and girls in Missouri. We are proud of him. There are some conditions existing that should not exist; there are some things that should be given our boys' and girls along the line of educational facilities that are not given. If our state Legislates more than one, the same should be made for the other. We cannot adjust these conditions in spasmatic way but we must maintain prayerful, with-painting care, make an effort to do our duty in full, measure up to the requirements, be men and women and ask for what we want intelligently with racial pride. **** We extend to the patrons of Car

Who were Shabak and Tirhakah?
J. J. L. Mobile, Ala
Shabak was the Ethiopian conqueror of Egypt and lived about 3000 B. C.
Tirhakah was an Ethiopian general and ruler of Egypt who expelled the Assyrians from Egypt in 67 B. C.
Was Jeans Christ of African blood?
D. J. N. Kansas City, Mo.
J. J. writing
his given in the New Testament was descended from ancestors who were of African blood. He was himself a dew and it is ethnically true that there is a strain of dark blood in the true Hebrew. The description supposed to have been given of Christ all ginger blue eyes and blonde hair is evidently a forgery.
Who was John Latto and who did he live? G. F. C. Akron, Ohio. He was a poet and scholar of Spain and lived in the 18th century. He was born a slave and later attended the University of Granada and seceded the degree of Doctor of Arts. Later he won the chair of Poetry at this university through competitive examination. Was Heracles, the famous Grecian hero, a Negra? N. N. P. Carinthia, Miss. Heracles was originally an African hero and his stories were borrowed from ancient Asiatics and early European people. The Heracles of Greek mythology was descended from Epiphope the black toch's son of Io and Zeus. Was the wife of Charles Sumner: chored woman? I have heard this statement made but did not know whether it was true or not. M. W. Buffalo, N. V.
No. She was a white woman of the bristlete type, and rather dark. Some of his enemies claimed that she was coipred, but she was not.
Somewhere I have read that black scholars composed the Koran. Is such a fact? F. G. N. Alton, I.
The man who compiled the Koran was Abu Bekr, life long friend of Mohammed. Abu Bekr was a full blooded Negro, a rich in reliance of Arabian and the keeper of the records of his tribe. He was asked by friends of Mohammed to preserve the saying of the people after his death. Abu Bekr was named by Mohammed to be the 1657 Culip of the Mohammadan Empire.
Prizes For Best Newspaper Literary Production
Associated Negro Press
NEW YORK, N. Y. 061211
Opportunity Magazine, which is an announcing in its October issue a series of Awards For Constructive Journalism to be given to the papers, who have the finest editors, news stories and feature articles during a period of time to be designated, plans these awards "to bring to the attention of the world at large those splendid qualities of literary craftsmanship which frequently go unnoticed in the Negro Press." Editor Omarles Johnson states that "the winning editors
news stories, and features will be placed in a new prominence, and their messages as well as their skillful handling fitted against the best that the white press can offer". The following editorial in October "Opportunity" explains the purpose behind the awards:
"The Negro Weekly Press is today one of the most important agencies for the forming of opinions among Negroes. It expresses their desires and grievances, their philosophies and their failings. For this group it is the fourth estate, no less powerful than that institution to which Edmund Burke addressed himself. It can inspire, foster and create movements; it can run them. The Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of New York under the sturdy and inspiring leadership of Mrs. Addie W. Hunton, has shown a rare discontent in directing its attention to the press, and combining with the ideal of competent craftsmanship that of interracial peace and undistinguish.
There are perhaps more Negro writers in this field than in any other and incentives to the highest stand of production are not always present. More attention needs to be paid to the officials of this press. Always they are interesting, and, not infrequently, they are brilliant and compelling. The prizes offered are in recognition of the latent existence of literary competence in a field where improved technique can register in dominance of critics. The also are the prizes in a young woman to interracial good will, for which we all are working, and to which end the prize itself can, perhaps, contribute most.

In these days when the birth of gold, all the one hand, and the pyramided prestige of Anglo-Saxon blood, on the other hand, potentially influence certain blacks and certain whites, respectively, to lead to the call of discrimination and segregation in many of the public school systems of the United States, defying Constitutional precepts and Christian brotherhood, it may not be unbearable to turn back to the days in the life of the late Charles Summer, of Massachusetts, United States, statesman, champion of Negro rights, and human capital of Justice.
On December 4, 1958, Mr. Summer appeared before the Supreme Court of Massachusetts, as counsel for Sarah C. Roberts, a counsel of five years old, who by her next friend, had sold the City of Boston for damages on account of a refusal to receive her into the public schools. The question stated by Mr. Summer was: "Can any determination on account of color or race be made under the Constitution and laws of Massachusetts among the children entitled to the benefit of our public schools?" in opening his argument. Mr. Summer said to the Court.
"This little child asks at your hands her personal rights. So doing she calls openly upon you to doubt a question which concerns the personal rights of every cultural child, which concerns the fundamental principles of human rights, which concerns the Christian character of this community. Such parables, and such interests, so grapted and varied, may justify challenge your most earnest attention."
In touching upon Summer's remarkable logic is this particular case his biographer says (in 1574): "The freedom from taste which characterizes the schools of the young states of the Northwest may be largely assisted to the influence of tails art."

Charles Sumner, the truly great Commander, continued his argument of 1849 with the following allegations, which it is well than you and I, amid, as we said before, the lure of gold and the pyramidal prestige of Anglo-Saxon blood, should well consider in this modern age, when discrimination and segregation are being cemented into American life in a way which their proponents consider highly ethical.
Listen to Summer, in 1849:
listen to Sunday, in 1947.
"As the State receives strength from the unity and solidarity of citizens, without distinction of class, so the school receives new strength from the unity and solidarity of all classes beneath its roof. In this way, the poor, the humble, and the neglected share not only the companionship of their more favored brethren, but enjoy also the protection of their presence, in drawing toward the school a more watchful superintelligence. A degraded or neglected class, if left to themselves, will become more degraded or neglected. To hint that hath shall be given; and the world, true to these words, turns from the poor and outcast to their rich and fortunate. It is the aim of our system of public schools, by the blending of all classes, to draw upon the whole school the attention which is too apt to be given only to the lowest and most deserving of the poor their portion of the fruitful sunshine. But the colored children, placed apart by themselves, are deprived of this blessing.
"May it please your honors, such are some of the things which it has occurred to me to say in this important case. I have occupied much of your time, but $ have not yet exhausted the topics. Still, which way soever we turn, we are brought back to one single proposition, the equality of men before the law. This stands as the mighty guardian of the rights of the colored children in this case. It is the constant, ever present tutelary genius, of this Commonwealth, frowning upon every privilege of birth, upon every institution of caste. You cannot slight it or avoid it; you cannot restrain it. It remains that you should welcome it. Do this and your words will be a charter and freehold of rejoicing to a race which has earned by much suffering a title to much regard. Your judgment will become a sacred landmark, not in jurisprudence only, but in the history of freedom, giving precious encouragement to all the weary and heavy laden wayfairers, in this great cause. Massachusetts will then through you have a fresh title to regard and be once more, as in times past, an example to the whole land."
Thus spoke Charles Summer in 1849 What would he say were he alive today?
Form and Substance-
"What you are speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say."
Arbeth Lincoln.
Every seasoned Student of Law knows the difference between the form and substance of pleandings of how the former is merely a matter of legal police and appearance; while the latter goes to the heart of the plea. Errors in form may be easily corrected; but errors in substance are usually fatal. Velence critics of both Race individuals and the Race as a whole, both within and without its fold, may be likened to a Court which is so incompetent that it regarr-form as being more important than substance; and without exercising a discerning eye to detect the good that lies within men and races, with one ignorant decision, condemns, because of its rough exterior surface, some hidden virtue which, day by day, is stimulating the souls of men.
Thus, John Smith, hewer of wood and drawer of water, rogigh and ready, but a devotee of ardent Christian service, is frequently exiled by proponents of one-day Christianity, whose
breasts swell with surging prayer and praise on Sunday, but whose lives, on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, yield an exhaust of unkindness, criticism, and hypocrisy, relying upon form, not substance, for their virtuous and exemplary existence; while Honest John tolls on with physical and moral endurance, unbreakable through the seven-day week. Form is the stimulant of the mob spirit; the "blood-word" of its victim; the measure by which prejudice points to color as a mark of inferiority or superiority; and Form is the internal weapon which we use in offense to condemn rather than to discern the goal that within men lies.
It is no less important that the substance of a Race should be the factor by which the world judges its greatness and its goodness than it is that within the Race itself we should be liberal with our counterparts, and look through the form to the substance in an honest endeavor to discern these Christian virtues and elements of service which bespeak Peace, Charity, Humility and Respect; and for what could be more just than that if a man seek Equality, he shall do Equity; and he who seeks Equity must do so with clean hands. Although the worldld world has permeated each one of us with the ulloy of conquest and self-exaltation; yet, there is so much good in the worst of us that substance is the only just measure of "real, honest-to-goodness" that we stand for in the Good Book says, "Let us thinketh he standerd take heed lest he fall," and let him, like Equity, look to the substance rather than to the form.
The Floridian Stampede—
Believe it or not, the population of Florida is increasing at the rate of 100 per cent a decade. In 1900, Florida had 528,542 people. In 1920 she had 968,470; and in 1930, if the present stampede continues, the everglades state ought to have two million or more, representing the tremendous flow of migrants from the North who are answering the mysterious call of the Everglades State. That white people are ready biters of propaganda is easily proved by each trainload of promoters and promoters which employs at Palatka, St. Augustine, Miami, Jacksonville, Tallahassee, Key West and on down the Florida line. Just what causes the stampede other than florid advertisements, no one seems to know. When it is considered that during the year, September 1, 1922, to August 31, 1923, 90,000 Negroes stamped themselves out of Florida, making a great big dent in the 350,000 Negro population thereafter in the State, and that this healthy number formed 18.8 per cent of the near half million Negroes who deserted the Southland during the same year, wormerment is/expressed at the tremendous influx of newcomers who seek to abide in the land, which was but a sinking ship to those who left its confines.
Here, though is the difference. The 90,000-abundant Negroes left for greater freedom, better schools, fuller and more equal protection under the law, higher wages, better homes, and emancipation from preamage and prison camps. The newcomers of Anglo-Saxon hue, doubtless go to Florida for the promotion of capital investments, away from the stricter corporation laws of the Northland, and for the stimulating of the rather free public law, as prevalent in Florida. Florida, like every other artificial bonanza, ethical laxity will prevail. Rules will be suspended and customs sidetracked to give money plenty of air and space in which to develop wings.
With the prevalent tradition of the Floridian atmosphere, social and civic barriers already existing can be so strengthened so as to make the sledding for the brother even more strenuous than it now is.
In anxiety we shall observe the migration to the everglades state, hoping and praying that by chance it may innoirate in its program for Florida, anti-lynching, anti-psychoaglank, better schools for the Negro, the full and equal protection of the law, and every other just benefit which might prevent 30,000 whites who are going down from passing 30,000 blacks coming up, each of whom would, under present conditions, both real and artificial, be seeking something better, more permanent, and more blessed, all the way from a motor-boat to a bullet-box.
Now that the City of Baltimore has decided to pave North Carolina Street our old friend, Dr. William (Bill) H. Cargill need not further delay buying that Rolls Royce he's been aching for.
An appropriation of $100,000 was made by the last session of the Tennessee Legislature for additions to the Negro State Normal school at Nashville. This appropriation is increased by donation from the general education board and private resources, making $320,000 available for the expansion of that institution.
NOTES OF THE NOTABLES
On last Monday Hon. William C. Matthews, of Boston, breezed into Washington and brewed right out again. "Matty" made a shortstop.
"To be or not to be," that is the question of J. B. Whitney, campaign manager for J. Dalmus Steele, candidate for the Grand Exalted Rulership of the L. B. P. O. E. W.
Wonder if J. Finley Wilson will bring back any Elks teeth from the State of Washington? Perhaps, the "Fin" went out west to get a rabbit's foot.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 7—A representative body of Philadelphia, mostly members of the John Brown Memorial Association, tendered a farewell reception to Dr. Williams Lloyd Imes, pastor of Lombard St. Presbyterian Church. Dr. Imes is leaving Philadelphia to assume pastoral work in New York City. The affair was held at the home of Mr. & Mrs. Theodore Richardson, 1921 Bainbridge Street.

Does not head a republican government but comes of a ruling house that has been in power for nearly three centuries. The inheritance, instead of passing from father to son, is handed on from uncle to nephew. Seniority is of no importance.
When the ruler feels that the hour of his death is near, he enters into consultation with the Queen mother, behind closed doors (the flap of a tent or a palm leaf). Together they discuss the qualifications of all the young male members of the family. The successor to the throne is chosen for his worth. Upon the death of the Chief, the favored nephew's name is given to the Council of Elders by the Queen. "It is the Queen who has the real power," says Nana Amoah. The people then signify whether they are satisfied with the nominee. If so, he is acclaimed the new ruler. Wealth Never Makes Chief "Our election returns are flashed by a wireless method of our own from east to west and from north to south." Chief Nana Amoah relates They are carried through the air—over the mountains, across lakes and rivers, through the jungles—by the beating of drums."
There is, it seems, a language of
— a native African equivalent
of the Morse code—baten out on small
drums and large drums—some as high
as a man, that boom into the stillness
of the bush. Telegraphic drumming
is an art and a profession on
the Gold Coast.
Messages carry from twenty to thirty miles, are picked up by the sharp ears of a sentinel and relayed to the next station. In this manner news spreads as fast as sound can travel. Great celebration marks the election of a chief. Dancing and feasting enter into the ceremonies. Besides the oath of office taken by the young chief—in which he pledges himself to do his duty by his people night or day, to respond whenever called upon and to defend the rights of his tribe in case of war—he must swear allegiance to the British Government.
With great pomp he is escorted to the Deputy Governor. "Wearing my robes of state," said Nana Amoun. "I was carried in a palmquin on the shoulders of some of my subjects. I took with me gifts of gold. My sub-chiefs were in attendance; the Council of Elders and the brimpins." These last, he explained, are the Rockefellers and the Fords of the Fanti tribe. "though in my country money does not buy power; a chief may be a poor man, but wealth will sever make a chief."
Wears, Costly Fineries. Each subchief has his attendants. In the procession—were the sword bearers, holding silver and golden urns in their hands: elephant-tail boys, who ran back and forth shooting flies, and the Treasurer, holding in his right hand a pair of scales. The great Chief himself wore chains of gold and precious stones about his neck, while the ornaments on his arms were so heavy that it took two aids to help him hold them up.
In old times the heads of the tribes were called Kings, but the title was changed to Chief when England's rule was extended to the Gold Coast. A sword and not a crown is the emblem of power. Though Chief Amoun dresses in the latest English fashion when traveling, he brought along several of his most gorgeous native costumes, as well as his royal sword. The roles are brilliant in color and of fine texture. On his head he wears a soft silk scarf.
"Some of the beads I wear on special occasions," said Nana Amoun, "are priceless; they were made by ancient Phoenician artists and are reflections of the days when those great mariners traded along our shores."
The Government of the Fanti is paternalistic. All disturbances that cannot be settled privately are referred to the Chief. The individual is responsible to the family, the family to the tribe and the tribe to the Chief. Above the Chief is the Mbra, or Paramount Chief, chosen for his prowess, whose sole duty it is to End the Fanti's in war.
To aid him Chief Amoah has twelve Councillors. All crimes, other than murder, are brought before the native councils. Graver offenses are tried in the English courts.
"We have poverty, but no paupers," said the African visitor. "Every citizen must do some work. We have land belonging to the Crown which can be occupied by those who have no home of their own. Should a member of our tribe die leaving his immediate family without means of support, the responsibility falls to his nearest relations. If they are unable to assume it the tribe becomes responsible.
"Polygamy is not customary among the educated people, though it does exist in my tribe. Marriage is less a hazard with us than it is here. We are careful before we enter into marital relations.
Courtship
Courtship pursues the following fashion: The young Fanti, having beheld the maiden of his choice, confides the secret to his father, who proceeds to investigate the girl's circumstances. If the result proves satisfactory, consent is given; if not, the young man must seek elsewhere.
But search, for family skeletons does not end here. Wae to the young man if his own escutcheon proves less fair than the girl's! Often two persons are betrothed when they are children, though marriage does not take place until the girl is about 18. Courtesy to Strangers
Respect and courtesy are shown to the unarmed visitor who travels thru the Fantis' domain. "The stranger who enters one of our villages becomes the charge of the odikro, or head man of the community. In the name of the villagers he presents the guest with gifts. When the visitor is about to make his departure, messengers are sent ahead to the next village to advise its odikro. Furthermore, he has the protection of an escort of our people while he journeys from one settlement to another.
"His belongings are held sacred. Should one of my people, by chance, find a wallet containing money, he

would deliver it into the hauds of the olkro, who, if unable to return it to the stranger, would secure it. with grasses or thongs and preserve it until called for. Even after a large of twenty years the owner would, find it intact."
Religion
Though Christianity is rapidly spreading in Africa, large numbers of the native adherent to their primitive beliefs and superstitions.
"The outside world often misunderstands the native worship of nature," opined Nana Amoh, who is himself a Christian. "When we pray to mountains, streams and rocks, it is not because we believe them to be endowed with any divine power but because we think that they are better able than we to reach our god, who according to our conception, is a very remote being. We recognize a universal god to whom we give two names: Yami, the god who made me, and Yamukupon, the friend that never fails.
"This god is far off in the realms above, where it is dull for us as mere mortals, to communicate with him. So we offer our prayers to some soaring peak that it, reaching heavenward, may intercede on our behalf. The missionaries, however, have taught many of us that there is a God, ever present and within us, who does not need to be approached through other instruments than our own hearts and minds."
Well. Educated
Chief Nana Amoah was educated in the Westleyan "college. He is widely traveled and has spent many years in England, where his two daughters are now in school. Nana Amoah is 18 years old and has four children.
The estimated number of children of school age in the Gold Coast colony is 300,000. Only about 35,000 are getting an education. It is said that although the educated natives do not constitute more than half the population of even the coast cities, they dominate the thought and action of their people. Like Nana Amoah HI, these Africans who have come in contact with European culture, speak English with a British accent. Like him they look to America for inspiration and assistance in the completion of their struggle for self-development.
TRIES TO COMMIT SUICIDE
Associated Negro Press
CLINTON, N. C., Oct. 14—After a double attempt at suicide, once with a sawed off shotkun, and once with a kufle Saturday night Sambo Matthews, 40, was finally caught and disarmed by the chief of Police. Matthews had been drinking, and under the influence of the liquor, had attempted bodily injury against his wife, who fled, and other friends. In police court he was fined $3.90 for being unruly while drunk.
