BALTIMORE, Md., Nov. 4—A colored man was killed and a white seriously wounded here Sunday night in a street clash. More serious results were probably averted by the hurried response of police to a riot call. The conflagration started between a group of whites and a number of colored men at Park avenue and Centre street. The colored men were outnumbered were forced to flee to Mount Vernon Place, where they fought viciously until police arrived. During the combat, Edward Roberts of 700 George street was struck in the head with a brick. He died from a fractured skull in a hospital a short time latter. Joseph Macklin, white, was taken to a hospital suffering from a serious knife wound. The police charged the combatants with their batons and arrested nine, Frank Moberly, one of the whites held, admitted at the station Monday night that he hurled the brick, which resulted in Robert's death.

"GIRLS MEN FORGET" New Heart Interest Serial Story By BERTHA MAY MUERS Starting In This Issue ON PAGE FOURTH COLORED WOMAN IS ATTACKED BY ARK. WHITE MAN Second Assault On Women By Whites Leads To Hot Pursuit. Same Man Is Believed To Have Committed Both Crimes McCRORY, Ark., Nov. 4—Blood hounds and a posse of Negroes and whites failed to run a white degenerate, who attacked a colored woman in her home six miles south of here. It was the second time within a month, that a colored woman in this district has been assaulted by a white man. The wife of Clarence Poindexter was the victim in the latest case of attacks on colored women by white fiends. The white man entered the woman's home during the absence of her husband. He was interrupted by Mrs. Poindexter, white in the act of looting her bed room. On seeing the woman he caught her and endowed to force her to his desires. Mrs. Poindexter, however, freed herself during the struggle and rushed, to a dresser drawer, where she procured a revolver. She fired several shots at her assailant who managed to make his escape through a window. Bloodhounds were summoned from Newport, but the ground was so tramped they were unable to follow the fugitive's trail. Bitter feelings were aroused by the bulrage on Mrs. Poindexter, especially, because another such incident had happened only a short time before. In this case Mrs. Morgan and her two children were wounded by a white attacker. It is believed that the same man committed both crimes. JUNIOR POLICE FOR OKLA CITY OKLAHOMA CITY. Okla., Nov 4. As the results of their persistent demand for equal rights, the colored schools of this city have been promised the privilege of having junior police patrols similar to the ones now operating in the white schools. The colored schools have organized safety league, units and begun safety programs. When the race schools requested that colored boy patrols be commissioned and given authority to control traffic in the vicinity of the colored schools, the Kiwansi official backing the safety organization were slow to act. Immediately after the request had been filed, delegations of Negro school patrols visited the superintendent of schools and city officials, to place a similar request. The question, whether or not the Negro youths could be commissioned to handle traffic and make arrests, is necessary, without causing serious trouble with white drivers was the chief stumbling block that held up the Kiwansi. "I do not feel that Negro schools should be discriminated against." Mayor Cargill declared. "If the white schools have patrols with authority to control traffic and actually make themselves valuable in saving the school children from accidents, there is no reason why the Negro should be denied an equal chance to improve their safety, condition." Bryant school, at Third and Gary, recently changed into a Negro school, was the school which caused the general hesitation about commissioning the Negro patrols. The other colored schools are situated in districts with little white traffic, and Negro student police on duty around them would create no race friction, it was thought. WORLD WAR VETERAN NOW STATE CIVIL ENGINEER NEW. YORK. Nov. 2—Clyde R. Brannon, whom Uncle Same called from his studies at Howard University for World War service, after being honored with a First Lieutenant's commission, plunged into European conflict never thinking that he would see the good old U. S. A. again! Young Brannon, like many others, was spared, however. He returned to school and obtained his degree in civil engineering and was forthwith appointed, after competitive examination, as a civil engineer with the New York State Highways Commission, with whom he has made an enviable record on survey and construction work. Brannon was in the first civil-engineering class graduated from Howard University, and his rapid development, along with that of his class-mates, means that the inclusion of competent colored engineers in this important profession will grow larger and large with time.

Nov. 4. The heroism of Edward Mitchell, who with his brother Langston, was drowned in the Monongahala River July 27, in an attempt to save the life of a white attorney. James Waters, was given honorable recognition here Friday, when a Carnegie Hero Medal bearing his name was given his widow, and she was granted $80 a month for her support. Saw White Leap The bravery of the Mitchell brothers in sacrificing their lives in an attempt to save the white man, brought thousands of tribes of respect and sympathy from citizens in the vicinity. The sheriff men, who were employed at the power house of the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie Railroad station, on the morning of the tragedy, saw the white attorney netting peculiar in the Smithfield Street bridge. They watched him, and saw him leap from the bridge rolling into the river. They ran to the place from where he had leaped, and without hesitating to consider the danger, Edward leaped into the water after the man. He landed in about 10 feet of water, about 90 feet from the shore. He had almost reached the attorney when the latter sank beneath the water's surface. Turning, Edward tried to make it to land, but the current of the Monaghela was too muddy for the strength of the almost exhausted rooster. His brother, witnessing his danger from the river, plunged into the water after him. He reached Edward, who had lost consciousness, and fought desperately to bear him to shallow water. The weight of water oaked clothing and the current held the swimmer back with his burden, however, and he sank with the body of his brother. A mother and a father survived the brothers. Each left a wife; Edward also left a four-year-old daughter. Edward served overseas with the Illinois volunteer regiment. Other Awards Made Thirty-two acts of heroism were recognized by the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission, which held its fall meeting at the headquarters in the city. Fifteen of the heroes gave their lives in acts of bravery and two of the recipients were girls. Four silver medals and twenty-eight bronze medals were awarded, in addition to 87,250 annually to the dependents of heroes who perish.

FOURTEEN PAGES APPOINTED HEAD OF CITY HOSPITAL NO.2 THE EDITOR On Wednesday, Nov. 4, Dr. O. F. Perdue took charge of City Hospital No. 2, succeeding Dr. R. C. Huskel as superintendent, who has held the office for the past seven years. It is understood that the appointment of Dr. Perdue affects the general approval of the Colored people of this city. He received his literary training at Williams Industrial College, Little Rock, Ark, and Branch Normal, Pine Bluff, Ark. He graduated as a pharmacist at Mehairy Medical College in 1914, and received his M. D. degree from the same institution in 1915. During the World War, he served in one of the Army Continents at Chicago. Since that time he has praised his profession in St. Louis where he has built a large clientele. He is well known in social and informal circles, being a Scottish Rite Mason and a member of Medinah Order Mystic Shrine. Dr. Perdue was an original "Miller Man," and his appointment is regarded by some as favoring Mayor Miller's friend. Dr. R. C. Haskell, deposed head of City Hospital No. 2, took his removal quite hard, but there were many who were outspoken in the statement that the "little doctor" had past his day of usefulness as superintendent, of such a large hospital. He has been accused of being a weakling, allowing the hospital to be run by Miss Martin, a white head nurse. During his administration, especially in recent years, there was much this satisfaction among the internes Dr. Omar Price, one of the internes who Dr. Haskell had dismissed, brought suit against Dr. Haskell and the city. Another interne, who wrote out his resignation, was told that he could not resign, but would be "shed" without honor if he iblsted on resigning. A little newsboy, who was trying to earn a few dimes for himself, was forbidden to sell an Argus at the hospital by Dr. Haskell because the Argus published the news about the suit against him. It is also said that when Dr. Pardue presented a letter of his appointment to Dr. Haskell, he was given a cool reception by the former, who remarked, "I have no information to give." It is understood that Dr. Haskell supported Mr. Alee for Mayor in the primary, but supported Mayor Miller in the election. MOTHER ARRIVES TOO LATE TO SAVE TWINS HOUSTON, Tex. Nov. 4.

Little Success Seen To Date, But Organizers Are Not Discouraged. Three night meetings, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week did not yield the large crowd. It might have been expected at the mass meetings being held at Union Memorial Church, in an effort to organize the Pullman Porters. Messrs. A. Philip Randolph and A. L. Totton, the organizers, have arranged a series of meetings of eight nights at Union Memorial to carry what they call an "Educational Program of Enlightenment." In their speeches, an optimistic outlook has been pictured, by telling of the wonderful success they have had in New York, Boston, Washington and Chicago. Mr. Randolph stated that his movement had no affiliation with the A F of L. por the Reds in Russia, as has been reported. He stated that he was working to help the men who serve the public, and all he wanted was to get 51 per cent of the men in his organization and he would force the Pullman Company to raise their wages, and expected to have the required number within the next 30 or 40 days. After three nights' effort, Mr. Torten, who is an *a Pullman porter*, said, "We feel very much encouraged with the attendance under the circumstances. We have barred the Negro official team our meetings. The men were afraid to attend the meetings and that accounts for the small attendance.

"EVERY EFFORT TO PUNISH LYNCHERS" Bv William Pickens Associated Negro Press Applesauce! And yet we have seen a statement under this heading printed, sometimes without comment, in many Negro weeklies. Those "good" white folks who want to hide the shame of Georgia for lynching an incite Negro, are cleverly broadcasting this "promise" to punish, for the sake of appearances. We are glad that at least some white folk in Georgia are sufficiently assuaded of the brutal deed to want to make the rest of the world think that Georgia is going to punish somebody for it. But, Georgia is not going to punish anybody for this lynching. Georgia has punished nobody for about 500 lynchings. "Oh, but they are offering a reward of $500"—Well, if I had the money, I could serenely offer a reward of $500,000 for every one of these lynchers, that Georgia would punish. It is easy to offer rewards that you know will never have to be paid. If Georgia really wants to punish anybody, it would not be necessary to offer any rewards, but only to send two or three even third class detectives, to Milledgevillie who in a few days could have the name and address of every man of any consequence who invaded that insane asylum. Even some of those crazy people could tell who, some of the mob were. Why do colored newspapers, "hite" at this cannouflaging propaganda emanating from Atlanta? I do not they should not print it, but they should not print it without commenting on it, in a way to show that they are not fooled—and in a way not to fooil other colored folk. But the average colored man will not be fooled. He knows how insincere is the dominating influence of the South. They are always raving in that section against the horrible crime of rape. And when a white man in North Carolina is convicted of raping a little innocent colored working girl of 44 years, who he himself says fought him like a young tigress, the court gives him a six month's sentence, and the lawyers are trying to get that suspended. It's a lie about their being opposed to rape. They are opposed to equality, even legal, political, and industrial equality for black people. For every case of alleged or actual rape by a black man against a white woman, in the south there are 25 cases of actual rape of colored women by white men. And the hypocrites know it—and they know that not one time out of a thousand will any white man there be punished for either lynching a Negro man or raping a Negro woman or girl. Colored people have tried to pass an anti-lynching bill in Congress. If Georgia were sincerely opposed to lynch law., she would have instructed her representatives to support and not oppose this bill. TID BITS By Leopard Massenburge American apples are more popular in Egypt than those received from Italy and Greece. More than three score years ago slavery split the Methodist Episcopal Church in two at Mason and Divison's The innocent cause of the split Bisha James Agoud Andrew, was composed to human bondage; he never bought or sold a slave, it was reported. It was his misfortune to 1844, his wife, Mrs. Leonora Green wood, of this city, was a slave owner. He signed away all his personal rights in his wife's property. However, he kept the ownership of a lay inheritor at the State laws of North Carolina forbade him to free slaves. At the time of his second marriage, who had been left to him by his first wife; and the order of a woman instructed him to be granted not on his death. The militant abolitionists were shocked at the spectacle of a church dignitary owning human flesh and blood. They raised an entery which grew to such proportions that the bishop was the issue at the General Conference at New York in 1844. By a vote of 111 to 61 he was asked to resign his office if he refused to present his slaves with liberty. The bishop bowed to the majority deciding to sign Thirteen southern confines; delegates protested against the decision of the General Conference and repudiated its jurisdiction. At the conference of the Methodist Church at Petersburg, Va., in May, 1846, the members formed themselves into Methodist Church South, calling entirely from the parent organization. Bishop Amir w was the senior Tabishop and presided over the differences until his death in Mobile in 1871. The oldest tree in France is a Roman and it is said to be 148 years old.

Del. 5756. 4270a W. Finney MYRA TAKEN from an evolutionary standpoint, Myra represents the eternal etymological question. It is said to mean "she who weeps," but where it comes from and how it reigned its present form is clouded in mystery. The consensus of opinion seems to be that it comes from the word marah, meaning bitterness, which was then supplied to the bitter gum, myrrh. The same term was used to designate the brackish springs in the desert to which the desolate wildew of Biblical nem referred when she cried "Call me not Naacu (pleasant), call me Marah (bitter)." This is on the whole, the most satisfactory derivation of Myra, sometimes referred to in the Middle ages as Myrra, of the Sean. Myra was frequently used in the early days of Biblical history and the heritage of sorrow which the name suggests seems generally to have accompanied its progress. It has been a great English favorite and has likewise had widespread vogue in this country, its popularity, curiously enough, being continued largely to the South. Job, the emblem of sorrow, is Myra's tall-snout geep, but by wearing it the ancients believed that she could escape her legacy of tears. It should be worn, however, against the flesh to insure its patience. Tuesday is Myra's lucky day and her pucky number. (© 1913, Wise for Syndicate, Inc.)

The opening is a medley of songs and dances with a hotel exterior as the setting. Mr. Clark follows with humorous monologue and a song with a denotency plea. Dollie Allen, supported by the girls, sings "Pleasainny Days." She has a beautiful soprano voice and registers a hit with the audience. Mr. Clark and George Allen take the comedy past and "unlock a barrel of fun that does not run out until the final curtain." They at once step into trouble by medding, with "Sweet Daddy," Bruce Johnson, and his "Yellow Woman." Elizabeth Miller. Then they have a round with a cop over a lost pocket book, which they hang onto until their thirst for fun finally exposes them. There are several entertaining song and dance numbers. Vioia Hartlett and girls sing "Sweet Georgia Brown." Dolly Allen and Mary Clark, with a chorus of "dancing girls sing." Maudy Make Up "Young Mind." Miss Allen impersonating a made. Bruce Johnson, with a wash board for drums and traps, assisted by Gabrielle Allen, with an imitation trombone, have a musical farce that is a scream. Misses Allen and Bartlett score a hit "Singing," "If You Hadn't Gone Away." Mary Clark and the girls sing, "Sweet Man;" Miss Bartlett has a blues number; and the closing piece is a song and dance, "Josephine," by the company.

C., where he will use an instrument designed to photograph the voices and bodily expressions of emotions in colored singers. The photographs are to be used in analysis and comparison of Negro and white singers' voices. Melfessel already has "photographed" the voices of characteristic white singers. The sound-photography camera invented by Melfessel and Dr. Carl Seashore, dean of the Iowa Graduate College, is the first portable one of its kind. Photographs are made by means of a small mirror which picks up the sound waves, repeats and enlarges their movements, and by doing so reflects light to moving picture film.

Colorful News "Movies" By The Cameraman For Preston News Service Preparing For Heaven "Control people here, colored paper here, so why not get used to them now?" once presided Dr. Charles MacArthur (white) an eminent Baptist clergyman of New York, to white congregation. "Should you be unfortunate enough to be consumed by Hades, you should also and some of the colored by them there; and should your course of exit from this mortal world be heartward, your unfortunate and then there." All of which reminds us that a large portion of the Protestant church is shouting its eye to the modern trend of switching the Negro on a side track in America. "Should we obligently set apart streets or sections for the Negroes?" asks "Christian Work." A Protestant religious weekly review, published in New York City, And in its Edison Council was note the name of an enactment examiner whose son was a play child of our in the New York schools in a day whose whoring color of a man's skin was the least conscious nation in Little Old New York. The official designated of streets or sections for Negroes here or hereafter, of everlasting battle of infidelity, is we content not part of any Christian work, also how can all of us be black, brown, white and yellow pioneer for Beacon. A graat American philosophy once said: "What we are at the end of this life we shall be when the next begins. What a might surrounds all these souls, whether or white or black, that is, if the son has elected it, the whit folk teaches us who leave this world under an imaginary sun priority or inferiority based on skin tints, and wondering it the golden streets of the New Jerusalem are officially set apart for whites and blacks as is the trend in Detroit, Cleveland, Staten Island, and points South. I have to say that the great white christian church is confined with the end of roving many of its mountains to hidealls in its great work on popping its constituents for them. For when darkness en- trudes each morning, Protestant and evangelist and backpacking hands of either Hald's or Heaven bid welcome to some new applause. We don't imagine his transportation ticket will have a punch hole as is what kind of street he resides on down here or here as the case may be. So what's the use of stowing about it now? Do you follow Christian Work. Mr. Charles MacWhirr did not. Fut! Fut! Prof Scarborough— "The American traveler the congested parts of this like the twelveth Chicago Philadelphia and New York, the more I am you need that the best place for the as age Negro if he be a farmer and it is in any district, surely in such is of the farangist districts of the South. It is a well known fact that wherever Negro people living in large, racial groups, prejudice is intentional and the solution of the other problem is indeed more difficult and is longer deferred," writes Prof W. S. Scarborough, formerly of the Southland and prudent of Witherfore University, in "Our current Magazine." This sound not unlike Germany's warning to the good ship Lusitania, and its subsequent demolition by the barbaric nation. First, speaking of the "average Negro, if he is a farmer," as like saying, "the average man, if he is a baseball player, should stay in the baseball district." There are thousands and thousands of Negro farmers, that, according to the I. S. Census Bureau, which probably has fair means of studying population and occupations, the average Negro, like the average white man, is not a farmer. Those of his ranks, who pursue that landable employment, should decide what their modus operandi should be upon a specialized basis. But the Negro as a Negro, and without any designation other than his citizenship, ought to rye to and tro, just as he sees fit. There is no reason why he should turn farmer just to escape the congested regions of New York or Chicago. Even the average Jew is not a pawnbroker, and it would not be common sense to have him change his trade and retreat to the streets of Jerusalem. The fact is that if other Americans can thrive in Cleveland, Chicago or New York, congested, or otherwise just so should the American Negro expect to thrive in those points, and the citizens of the Nation and its state and federal government should rush to his aid in bringing about a pleasant transition. If Geography, History, and Arithmetic 85k5 were more pleptically distributed, among the Negro schools of the Southland, its Negro output would know more of Cleveland and Chicago and be better prepared topid intelligent people in ridling the country of the highly magnetized "valor" problem, which Prof. Scarborough seeks to transform in balloon size. Let Negress go where they will, and as a Cabinet officer said last spring, let each section of the country bear its own burden in preparing the Negress to meet the calls of necessity by training him and educating him in American ways and institutions. Let the shoemaker stick to his last, do not try to place a ball and chain about the ankles of the butcher, the baker, and the cinnamon stick maker. Tul. Tul. Professor Scarborough, so skilled because under northern skies One Hundred: Baby Fingers— Ten baby fingers, of ten kiddies each, in our way of counting, pecking and this way the sight, which greets us in a home we are only visited just overnighting with 160 per cent American-inc. It was by far the happiest home we have ever entered. That were in perfect harmony. Three girls, aged 11, 10 and 8, played "What'll I do" with equal grace and facility. Robust boys can entertain to gand from the store for their parents, while the receding tiers of youngsters amused the woe kiddies on down to the baby. In this home, the legendary "Twitter's Saturday Night" seemed alive today, with peace, happiness and cooperation around. They are thought, as Mother spread the table, is a one hundred per cent American home, well balanced with all that make home what it should be. Cleanliness, high morals, love, self-sufficiency, respect, unity, unending sufficiency and the spirit of "All for one, one for all." Here we missed, is a challenge to the kind of Americanism we read about. Freedom, quality, Godliness, advancement, loyalty and patriotism. Here are some boys who may later grace a battled girl in which world supremacy is being fought out. Here are some girls who will someday add pure Christian womanhood and motherhood to the animals of Christian withdrawn. How President Roosevelt would have honored such a family, such Americanism, such man unmutual Christianity. How Lincoln would have smiled to know that the little brown-tinged kiddies, all tun of them, were free men and women. And, though we as we paused before passing out: Must these God Given children somewhere, somehow meet the relief of those classes who biosslyly press onward vainly seeking to perfect their imaginary world where dwell a superior American people. Will the last of the Ku Klux Klan some time exact a toll from these youngsters for having been born with brown skin? Surely, ere such shall have occasion such a pure American home as this, and before Daddy and Mother Morge shall have seen the last kildies reach maturity, Christian obligation will have prevailed these spots which civilization has struggled to enter for so these many years, and memories will have been freshened by the prophecy that God is no respecter of persons. Lessons In Social Admixtures The sailing of a black prince with a rich white woman, while an outstanding phenomena in interracial relationships, from an individual standpoint, is merely one of the varied results of racial admixtures, with which not only American, but the whole world is fraught. When one considers the after results, even though in indirectly traceable, of Amii Kates 'Honky Tonk' of East St. Louis, just prior to the disgraceful and death-dealing riot of that city, the home-trial now in Detroit, MSA, and best yet not least, the increasing multifaceted output in the southern states, which pass misogyny noises as a mask to hide the face of interracial social exchanges, the corrosion is a glaring one that social admixtures, as between whites and blacks, sought first by the farmer, and tolerated by the latter. And it is only an attempt to protect the form, not the substances that groups of whites set up in morious protest against such admixtures. The faces do not justify the cause. For instance, in Detroit through the past year, to the writer's personal knowledge, the widest kind of social exchanges, promoted by white-collaborated by blacks, have taken place. East 51st Louis, just prior to the riots, was hosted with the light of blacks and tan life. Yet when the job mob gathered, its wrath at the needs fostered by its own group was spent upon innocent black people. It isargued, of course, that the better class of whites does not sanction such relationships. Neither does the better class of blacks. When it tainted social equalities reach the group sense, it is quite past time to desist. When they remain a purely individual matter, they should be treated the same as any other type of individual rela-tionship. The fact remains that throughout the history of interracial social matters, the white group has not been heartfelt enough to bear the brim of its own sins. Like the treasoning criminal, it has sought to destroy the evidence; and the evidence, in these cases, has not infrequently been an innocent people, who, because of fear or fear, have tolerated a condition which never did appeal to them. The great white world has work to do. It must cease indulging the black man as an immoralist, and do some housecleaning. In its own do math. It must replace the mob and its cowardly functions with the true philosophy of the individual, and gregal lives of races. Jim crow cars, misgregation laws, and other false barriers to an imaginary social equality are us weak as zephyrs, when compared with the gale which has blown the races together with a background of exploitation on the one hand and tolerance on the other. "Let him who is without sin throw the first stone" makes a savory doctrine for those who sound the first cry against social equality, which as we have long since contended, should be dealt with as an individual matter, only. Indispensable! No. Sah Indispensable! No, Sah! The Veteran threw down his Literary Digest with a slam, when we asked him what the South could do without Negro cotton pickers. "Let me get you told, Mr. Cummerman," he said, as a dry smile took the place of a frown. "there's no one in this wide, wide world that's indispensable. The colored brother is all wrong in thinking that the sun can't set without him being present. Why, a white man will go a mile down under the ground and five miles up in the air, and from Greenland to South Africa, if he thinks that there's a pot of gold at either end. But the brother goes according to sentiment, and a long as he can live within a half block of Easy Street, he's quite satisfied to think that he's doing nicely, and that the world can't get along without him, anybody. "It low wagers that have kept the white man out of the cotton fields; but have yearn nothed how cotton wages have been jungling up of hate? As good cotton picker can make enough nowadays to live well and make weekly payments on a Ford automobile. And if the wage a little keeps rising, if you don't look out the brother will be crying for a chance to make four or five hours a day in the cotton fields." "Oh. I'm not advocating any limitation upon the number of brethren who desert the farm for the stock mill," the veteran confirmed, half disconcertedly. "I amonly trying to show you that too much self-satisfaction never has been of much benefit to either Capital or Labor. "And the same cotton picker who becomes a mill hand in a steel plant, if he doesn't辛 himself on, will remain a mere mill hand just as long as he had previously been a cotton picker, under the illusion that he can't be spared from that particular job. Indispensability isn't that kind of an animal. Real honesty+goodness+hindi-possibility first seizes time by the forestock and trains and prepares like Abraham Lincoln did, for something which may come to pass. And when that something comes along, indispensability is sitting on the doorstep waiting to say 'Good Morning' instead of saying 'Good Evening'. That says when I get ready, because you can't get along without me. "I tell you, we shaped the Veteran as we prepared to leave. The great economic world of Capital, Labor and Wealth is moving along at a fast clip. Under the palestines which issued our group, we were to take double precautions for self-preservation. To much self-satisfaction and dormancy have been eating caves in our economic growth. We've got to prepare ourselves, just as the white man does, in the art of chasing a dollar, and keeping it after we've caught it. If we were to lay aside pride and family disgustility and wade through the seas on to the treacherous intrepidness. Then maybe we'll be indispensible." No Nordies Langdon Davies (white), versatile anthropologist and engender's scientist, has thrown another beacheshell at the Nordies, which he says, are mere myths. The Nordic designation, says Mr. Langdon Davies, "is only convenient label posted on the skins of human specimens, who, under the epidermis, are quite as like other human types as the traditional pens in a pool." This explosion, aimed at alleviated color suppression, comes at an unfortunate time to remind the suffering superiors of congenital America's Nordic hue of the prizes of transgression. Even as Mr. Langdon Davies speaks, the American Guardian Association is making a noble effort to raise two-million dollars to care for and educate children of American blood in the Philippines Islands, of whom, says General Leonard Wood, Governor of the Philippines. "The曼加德和儿童 of American fathers and Filipino mothers are growing up in pernicious surroundings. Boys and girls become the prey of destructive influences; but when properly guarded and educated they show signs of becoming useful and desirable citizens, striving for American blends." The care of these children costs $16 per child per month, or $7.60, $8.00, $10.00 and $11.00 more per child per month than Arkansas, Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi and South Carolina, respectively, spend for the education of each American black boy and girl dependent upon those states for instruction in American books and American ideals. No, the Nodies 'superiority' is merely a dream, which has been induced by exaltation exploitation of weaker peoples. When the searchlight of Justice and Christianity is directed at Nordism, it reveals a skeleton which is as large and as gruesome as that of the extinct dinosaurus. Nordism has failed, not only in the Philippines, but in America as well. California Syndicalism California Syndication Law— The Golden State of California has a so-called Synticalism Law, under the terms of which it is a felony, punishable by one to fourteen years, to belong to any organization which advocates or sympathizes with the use of violence to bring about a change in the present political and industrial system of Government. In Sunny California, far away from its orange blossoms and fruit groves, one hundred men and women, all white, are grazing the State prison, following their conviction under this law. Recently, their cases were appealed to the United States Supreme Court which, after appropriate deliberation, decided that the California law should be sustained, and that, accordingly, the men and women, who had violated its breaches, should do their due time. Listen, though, sons and daughters of the dark continent, there is the hypothetical question we would like to propound in toughful jurists and prison warlens: Assuming that 4,492 launching parties, under the auspices of mobs, have been formed in the United States during the last 42 years, and assuming that a law similar to the California Syndicalism Law, which, as aforesaid, makes it a crime even to advocate, by violence, a change in the political and industrial system, had been in effect, how many exemptions would have adorned state prisons each year, south of the Mason and Dixon line? American Negro Labor Congress American Negro Labor Congress. The American Negro Labor Congress, which has just closed its much heralded convention in Chicago, was "The Rushling-To-Irish Conventionals" misnamed. It would have been called for beneath the veneer of protests against segregation. unequal wages. Jim Crowism, and other evils we readily admit exist in this country in over-allowing measures, and which the A.-N. L. C. used as a smoke screen, there was the subtle and at times outspoken advocacy of the establishment in America of the Soviet Government of Russia. Sporadic outbursts of unrestrained applause revealed all too clearly the Communistic souls of the delegates, who, it was readily apparent, are instrumentalities of white Communist folders, who, having failed to their past undertakings among their own group, have now turned to Negroes, hoping to stir up such an unrest, as will make "goats" of the Negro labor of this country. The arguments that the aims of the Congress should aid would be consummated, or any cost, and that the Government had failed in its provisions, flip of the working class, even sinks into minor importance, compared with the resumption revolutionary spirit which arose among the mixed delegations of alleged workers from many of whose lips, a foreign tongue or popular twang fell. The truth, expressionless eyes of the white delegates was only opulence, by the linguid drawl, and quasi-Russian tourne of the leaders of the Congress. For the sake of honesty, we would like to ask organizer Lovett-Fort Whitman, atlas James - Jackson - who admits that he had to go across the seas to be properly "instructed" in the ways of American Government and the needs of American workmen, a few questions. Are there not enough organizations in America already at work upon the social and labor problems to make a proper vehicle for the desires of the A. N. L. C? Is there such a vast gulf between the work rewards met out to American laborers, that the questionable defiances of Moscow have to be brought over here as a solution? What of the American leaders, white and black? Are their life and labor absolute failures? Not withstanding the wonderful progress which all labor white and black is surely making under their statesmike guidelines? Does not all labor if properly nurtured, turn into Capital? And are not the American transitions good enough for us, without stirring up adversity from Russia, Asia and Turkestan? We hoped that the A. N. L. C. was by the square; but we find that it is another mushroom in labor, faintish, weak in structure, meaningless in purpose, and in contravention to American progress. Legislation In the Bud With the opening day of Congress just a few weeks off in the distract future, ambitions statesmen and job laysists among the brothems are beginning to sound their yearly remembrer for relief by Congressional Legislation in several matters which are a vital concern to the Race. Various proponents of reform are talking of their legislative pets, but exhibits of bills are as gear' as mountain dawn in the Sahara desert. For instance, we hear that a new anti-lynching bill is to be ready by December, which will be minus all the pitfalls contained in the Dyer document. Next, we hear that a bill to establish civil government in the Virgin Islands, Uncle Sam's a petition from Denmark, is to be introduced. Further, it is whispered that the brothems wane some changes made in the functions and duties of the Railway Labor Board, and that a delegation of Fallway men, heading up to Chicago, are coming East to have Congress take up their troubles. Too, friends, who are fearful each year the Howard University amputation is struck out by Congressman Thomas L. Blunton, dawn at, of Texas, say that this embarrassment can be avoided and for all by having legislation introduced which will give Howard a definite status in the stead of its ruling into the public treasury on the back of the Interior Department. "All these prospects sound mighty good to us; but we were told by 'Margery,' the psychic wizardess, that legislation calls for even stronger condition among the fifty-seven groups who are culturally carrying the brothers' burdens, than any other type of initiative which is in captivity at this time. 'Margery' proceed to our entire satisfaction that, with Bill's gang throwing stones at Jim's group, while Tom on the skidelines was sharpshooting at both Bill and Jim, whenever their backs faced him, there was little chance of Congress handing out any legislative plums to the blachers, of whom we are an humble one. And when we remember those below legislative days of the Dyer Bill, to say nothing of the Spencer, Celler, and McLeon bills, the last named of which, was allowed to die in Committee, we had to admit that discussions had taken us a long way from the days of Thad Stevens and Charles Summer, when the Civil Rights Bill was passed by Congress and went to the U. S. Supreme Court for judicial interpretation before it became a "dread one." What Is a Communist? Sanitary Cleaning and Dyeing Co. CALL MAIN 329 Ladies' Work a Specialty.

Since the Rifman and Moroccan disasters are receiving world attention, and hasnasm of it is ruinaged that the arms of the Communist Internationals are now endeavoring to unfold the black people of America, it is quite a fitting task to ask "What is a Communist?" A Communist is a member of the Communist International of Russia, the Constitution of which provides a number of striking activities which make the articles of confederation of the seceding southern states of pre-Civil War days seem like a mid-summer night's dream. Chief among the provisions of the Communist Manifesto and Program are: (1) The proletarian class struggle is essentially a political struggle, the object of which is the conquest by the Communists of the power of the state. (2) Participation in parliamentary campaigns, which in the general struggle of the proletarian is of secondary importance, is for the purpose of revolutionary propaganda only. (3) Communism, does not propose to capture the parliamentary state, but to conquer and destroy it. (4) In those countries where the conditions for a workers' revolution are not yet ripe, the same process will go on. (5) The Parliamentarism of the Communist party performs a service in mobilizing the proletariat against capitalists, emphasizing the political character of the class struggle. (6) The conquest of the State is so by a compulsified force and exile. (7) Strikes of protest are 'to develop into general political strikes and then into revolutionary mass action for the conquest of the power of the State. An economist with the mind of a child, or a political scientist of meagre knowledge knows, of course, that since all labor is at some time Capital, and that an overthrowing of the Government in the fashion contemplated by the Communist Party constitutes nothing more nor less than the spectacle of a people seeking to destroy themselves. Such doctrines form no part of the principles of the representative form of Government, and there is no place in America for any one who believes in force or violence or the destruction of property as agencies for the overthrow or changing forms of organized human society. Communism in America has failed among the whites, and that it will likewise fall among the blacks goes without saying. Hence, thoughtless and disappointed human remnants of white communism, if they are tampering with America's loyal colored citizens, are like a drowning man, grabbing at a straw—a straw whiff is far too weak to perform. The Sampson fear of pulling down the pillars of the temple of freedom to the destruction of self and of Government. Steel and the Negro Steel corporations, North and South, are reporting a tremendous swell in business, with corresponding profits and dividends to magnate, stockholders and investors. For instance, the Bethlehem Steel Corporation with nearly half a million hands on its payroll has just predicted a busy and profitable season. Birmingham and F. S. steel are also feeling the swell in the steel market, which, because steel is such an important factor in manufacture, usually means a concurrent swell in the Nation's business and commerce. Under the totally psychological presumption that because a black skin is superior to a white skin, in the matter of heat endurance, Negro labor has enjoyed a larger participation in the labor essential to the steel industry than in any other single branch of industry. Under this weak guise, Negro labor has been employed in the steel plants at a good profit to itself and a better profit to its employers. "Nevertheless, it is a happy truth that this black labor has been so largely inued in the steel making occupations, regardless of causes and results. Fast United States reports, however, showed a disparity. prejudicial to Negro labor, of from one-half a cent to two cents an hour in its unit wages, as compared with the wages of white steel hands, working at the same occupations. Also, the dead water mark, beyond which Negro labor has not herefore been able to advance into certain "choice" occupations, has been ever present in the Negro's history in the steel industry. It seems to us that the time is overdue when the powerful steel employers should shake up their consciences and raise their wage standards and conditions of labor up to 100 per cent by giving the black steel hand his just dues in an industry to which he has given his life's labor. The black steel hand has been "welfared" to death; and employment managers have ceded him into false contentment; he just so long as a penny or two is capped hourly from his wages, and just so long as his foremost representation are denied the goal of a king's advanced occupation "reserved" for his white steel contemporaries, just so long will industrial inequality prevail in one of the Nation's greatest industries, one which is creating the wealthiest operative classes in the country. What unionization there is among Negro steel hands has not been sufficient to bring about work equality. Nevertheless, if the union heads were sharply reminded that they have not kept faith with Negro hands, some good might ensue. In the meantime, however, and particularly new, that the coffers of steel industries are overhowing with gold—the profit of honest efficient labor, the Negro steel workers, organized or otherwise, must in group formation, by appeal, petition, persuasion, and other official influence, insist that their wage be equalized and that their opportunities for profitable and advancing employment are increased.

FRENCH ENTER RIFF WAR BY DRAWING OF LOTS FRENCH ENTER RIFF WAR BY DRAWING OF LOTS PARIS, Nov. 4.—The French as a nausea gain gambling. It is in their blood. They like lotteries. So now, according to a special decree issued by Paul Painlevé, Premier and Minister for War, those of the young conspirators called for service in Morocco are to be chosen by the drawing of lots. France, in common with the other Continental countries, has a compulsory period of array service, from pigeon months to two years, that must be undertaken by every young man as a training. This decision to select by lot will, it is thought, be recognized, as a "sporting proposition," giving every one an equal chance of avoiding the unpleasurable duty. It contains also, possibly, a tacit admission that the Rifian war is too big to be dealt with exclusively by France's professional soldiers. No Difference.

By Milton Wilkins The "red blocked" eleven of Summer High School arose in all their might, Saturday, and scored their third straight shutout victory by humbling the warriors from Columbia 36-0. It was Summer's eighth victory, seventh straight in two years, to date, its only loss being that to Evansville, the second game played last season. Columbia showed- itself inferior to the Maroon and White team in the first period, when it came within thirty-five yards of the St. Louis goal and was held for downs. The Maroon and White squad started slowly, with out the help of regulators Dickerson, H. Green, Baker and Al. Wilson, who were unexpectedly delayed and arrived near the last of the first period. The late players were inserted as they arrived, and the viciousness of Douglass' early attacks was some what overcome. Trouble started shortly thereafter, when the up state cricketers lost the ball on downs. II. Green showed that to fly in air is not nearly as hard as some folks picture it. Nevertheless, the game was one in which no one of the eleven Summer heroes stood out. The reliable Mankin showed speed, experience and ability in stepping the air attack of the visitors. Blackhorn, unusual, played the stellar game, weakening the Doughass defense under each play. Famed Dickerson, fullback, exerted no strength in playing his usual game, while Melvin Green showed that he is capable of the ballflower position. Douglass received the ball in the first quarter and in a series of plunges and end runs, the fake punt play standing out, reached Maroon and White's 35 yard line; but Reguars Baker, H. Green and Dickerson soon stopped this attack and held the Douglass boys on downs. The "center rush" was put over in fine style by Summer. Summer also gained considerably through the air route. The Douglass line wilted under the Beckett's onslaught. The outstanding feature in the second period was the 55 yard run of Buckner, Douglass, half, who snatched a duffel by McGhee and drew first blood from Summer. It was no help, for Summer once more secured the ball and marched up the field for more volleys. The third and final quarters saw Summer scoring three times once by Pilot McDuff, who recovered a fumble by D. Dixonson; once on a double pass Baker to Dickerson, who crossed the line on the right wing, and the final by "Pinky" McGhee, who received a punt and crossed on the left wing. HOWARD SWAMPS N. C. WASHINGTON, D. C., October 31 "The Howard University football elbow sebred an easy victory over North Carolina State College, of Durham, N. C., in the game played between the two schools on the University Campus, Saturday, October 31st, the score being 70 to 0. The air was filled with Howard passes, with Campbell and Long, doing the receiving. Payne, stellar quarterback of the "Bisons," was in his element. He dropped a field goal from the 35 yard line and added four extra points after touchdowns in the first half as the result of splendidly receiving passes. "Tick Smith, halfback of the "Bisons," smashed through the line for two touchdowns in the first half. A substituting, eleven, had no trouble in piling up a score of thirty-three points in the second half. Tyson and Carter carried the ball over twice for touchdowns in the second quarter, and Dodson rushed it across once. Cole drop-kicked three extra points after touchdowns out of five chances. Williams and Meekins were the outstanding players of the North Carolina State aggregation. All eyes of the football world are now focused on the game to be played at Washington Friday.

"Boogan Man" Jones, not content with one touchdown, caught a short pass and ran 15 yards for another. Stanley "and to act foolish and make two touchdowns," and McPherson swore he had to do his bit and ploughed turn for another.

LINCOLN TIGERS TRIUMPHS OVER TOPEKA 13 TO 0 Captain Robinson and Mills Make Touchdowns, Attendance Is Large. Next Contest On The 14th. By LELAND SMITH LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, Jefferson City, Mo. Nov. 4—The L. U. Tigers triumphed over the strong undefeated Topeka eleven for her fifth straight game of the season 13 to 0 last Saturday. Topeka muffed her opportunity when she failed to keep up her extraordinary trick passing ability with which she gained more territory than trying to break through the Tigers stone wall. It was a versatile attack and a stubborn defense that conquered Topeka. The brilliant end runs, line smashing, trick formations and was dotted with individual brilliancy. The students and followers of Lincoln yelled to the top of their voices, hats and caps were tossed into the air when Mills (Duck) at halftack caught Topeka's punt on Topeka's 35yd line and raced for the initial touchdown in the first 3 minutes of play of the 2nd quarter. Mills like a flash of lightning and halley (Blue) at his side displaying splendid interference paved the way to victory. Mills was a star throughout the game and one of the best ground gainers during the game. Robinson filled to place kicker for extra point as game at the half was 6-0. The Topeka team put up a good fight and at times seeming there would be a different ending but with the faith and ability of the Tigers kept Topeka playing in their own territory and the better part of the game. The display of both teams were the hardest brand of tackling seen on Lincoln's Gridron, between the two teams since '21 when Topeka defeated the Tigers. Chas. Robinson, center for the Tigers stared blocking 2 kicks. Mills carried the ball more than any one on the Tigers eleven. Woods at left end and in the backfield, played a wonderful game. Captain Robinson played hard and gained with line bucks. Both teams punted well Wynn and Captain Robinson punting for Lincoln and Joseph and Perliam for Topeka. Mason Lincoln's fleet end and Gantt the pilot of the Tigers were out of the better part of the game due to minor injuries. But will be in form for the Langston game. The final touchdown came in the last quarter when the Tiger team had marched down the field to Topeka's 20 yd. line when Topeka was penalized 15 yds. for communication. Lincoln now on Topeka's 5yd. line and 4 downs to make it. Wynn piloting the team used splendid head work. Giving the ball to Altich who made 4 yds. putting the ball on the 1 yd. line. (Gutt went in for Wynn giving the ball, to Captain Robinson who carried the ball over with the buck, Drop kick for extra point and the game remained 13—0 to the end. Captain Robinson, Mills, Wynn, Woods, Chas, Robinson, Kelly, Norman, and Bailey were stars for Lincoln, Shauls, Bright, Joseph, and Fountain for Topeka. Coach Morris will drill his team for the home coming game with Langton, November 14th. Many visitors are expected to come from various near by towns.

First half: Tuskegee 37. Florida 0. The effort on the part of the wildcats to advance the ball through the air was of no avail. While several of their short passes were completed the gains were not noteworthy. In the fourth quarter Joyner crossed the last marker twice for touchdowns and Stevenson was able to lengthen the score once for the extra point. Tuskegee 40, Florida 0.

M. Jackson's Orange and Black warriors of Lincoln High School, Saturday October 31. 1925, at the St. Clair Park, this city, by a score of 2-6. It was evident, a few moments after the blowing of the first whistle that the two teams were equally matched. The Hoosier boys displayed the hardest brand of tackling seen on the local gridiron in many years and stopped Lincoln's rushing machine dead in the opening quarter. Lincoln, not forgeful of her defeat a year ago, came back with vengeance, in the second period, with a big surprise, by smashing its way to Evansville's thirty yard line. From this point quarterback. Harris had a pass over thirty yards behind the opponents goal line where the fleet-footed left end, Scarey, was standing waiting to garner it in for the only touchdown of the game. Try-forpoint was blocked. The half ended with no further scoring. Score: Lincoln 6 Douglas 6. Douglas came back in the second half with her famous Dartsmouth shift, but Lincoln High showed her courage when she held her heavier opponents for downs three tines on her own three yard line in the fourth period. Lincoln's fullback. Bob Robinson, rumbled behind his own goal only to be tackled by a charging opponent for a safety. At this point Coach Jackson pushed in a half dozen freshmen who held the Hoosier boys safely the remainder of the period. Score: Lincoln 6. Douglas 2.

In third position was Irving Roth, white crack Stuyvesant High School runner, who trailed Ritchie by about fifty yards. Fourth honors went to Matthew, Roche, white, Richmond Hill H.S. who finished just twenty yards ahead of Steppecker, LaSalle High School, Philadelphia. Moore covered the course in the sterling time of 13 minutes 29 seconds, a notable performance considering that the trail was heavy, in some places muddy, and was partially covered with the ley aftermath of Friday's snowstorm, making footing treacherous at some stages of the chase. Ritchie, eleven seconds after the winner and eighteen seconds, ahead of Roth. Boche's time was 14:04 and Stepppecker was caught in 14:08 as he went over the line. Twenty-seven Teams Finish Moore outraced one of the most representative fields ever to start in a local schoolboy hill and race, in scoring his victory. From various sections of the State, as well as from Philadelphia, teams came for the race, constituting a field which represented thirty-one different high schools. The greater part of this huge field covered the full course. Moore's triumph was scored after a bitter struggle.

It required about a furlong for the unwidely pack to straighten itself out, and when it did, Moore was racing along in front, with Ritchie struggling to clear the field and gain second position. He was successful in a few strides and then settled down to follow the pace of Moore. The Brooklyn runner broke trail and set a speedy pace thereafter, with Ritchie a stride or two in the rear. A quarter of a mile from the finish Ritchie challenged, but found Moore prepared. The Brooklynite sped away from his rival as Ritchie weakened under the strain of the drive on the tape.

FLOYD JOHNSON BARRED FROM NEW JERSEY FIGHTS Preston News Service. TRENTON, N. J., Nov. 6—State Controller, Newton A. K., Bugbee, who is also State Athletic Commissioner, issued a statement Wednesday in which he announced that Floyd Johnson, heavyweight fighter, would be disbarred from future contests in this State because of his exhibition against Harry Willis at the Suissex 'Avenue Armory, Newark, Monday night. "The Boxing Commission of New Jersey was very much humiliated and disappointed at the outcome of the Willis-Johnson fight and feel that an explanation is due the patron of boxing" said Mr. Bugbee, "The Commissioner and chief inspirer seen Floyd Johnson in earlier than two years ago, and felt that would be a reasonable trial notice to Harry Willis. Permission was granted to hold the content after careful deliberation. Apparently their judgment was wrong, as the results show. "Floyd Johnson will be disbarred from future contests in this State. The Homer Robinson-Moody bout was most unsatisfactory and the commission will disbar Robinson from participating in bouts in this state for a period of six months. In the future, it will be the policy of the commission to avoid contests of this character. "It has been our constant policy to encourage the smaller boxing clubs throughout the State in order to provide suitable entertainment for the large number of citizens of this State who desire to witness boxing and this policy will be continued more markedly than heretofore." He declared that manning the school after the heavyweight king would be "a direct affront—yes, even an insult—to every World War Veteran." He said J. R. Bernard, Colorado Commander, was making a similar protest. A scientific paper says that life is anything but a safe bet after 40. Well, you ought to be thankful if the reckless autoist let you live that long. Tiger Flowers May Meet Harry Greb Negotiations Going On To Match Boxers For Bout Nov. 23 PITTSBURG, Pa., Nov. 4.—The new Duquesne Garden Boxing Club, to be operated by Henry Townsend, new owner of the (garden, plans to open its season on the night of Monday, November 23, with Harry Greb, local star, who is the middleweight champion of the world, meeting Tiger Flowers, clever Negro, of Atlanta, in the main bout of 10 rounds. Negotiations for the services of Flowers already are under way, Greb says, but his O. K. on the match. The contest is arranged it will mark the second meeting between the men. Thy fought in Ohio more than a year ago in a 10 round, no decision match. It was a close battle, with many of the spectators and some of the newspaper men thinking Flowers had shaded the champion. In fact, the report that he had hosted Greb spread around the country and caused Greb no little annoyance. Since then Harry has received a number of offers for a return bout with the Tiger, including several from New York where Flowers is a good card, but he turned all of them down. Just why he should consent to box Flowers here and at this time is not easy to figure out; but he has given the word and the machinery is in motion to bring Flowers here for him. Black Bill To Fight Ten Rounds With Jimmy Russo NEW YORK.

DIPLOMAT SEES STIRRING OF LATENT POWER IN LIBERIA AS RESULT OF RUBBER VENTURE THE PEOPLE'S PAPER PART TWO Avers Negro Republic Will Gain Place Of Political And Financial Importance Within Next Ten Years. CREATE IMPORTANT POST An Educational And Social Project Revealed In The Appointment Of James I. Sibley. NEW, YORK, Nov. 4—A letter to Charles B. D. King, President of Liberia, felicitating bird on the successful negotiation of concession whereby the Firestone Rubber and Fire Company will invest $100,000 000 in developing the rubber output of Liberia has just been sent by Dr. Roland P. Falkner, who was chairman of the American Commission of Liberia in 1909, and who subsequently carried through the negotiations to put its financial relations with the Great Powers on a firm base. Dr. Falkner said, in an interview, that this entrance of American capital into this West African Negro Republic could hardly fail to give the country a needed impetus in developing its resources. While agreed that in the course of years this step would be bound to increase the interest of the United States in West Africa, and that along with commercial development greater political interest could not fail to arise, he was confident that the concern shown by some London newspapers over this new growth of American interest was greatly exaggerated. He continued in part: U. S. Traditional Friend "The United States, of course, has traditionally taken a friendly interest in Liberia, and from time to time, when the Liberian Government has had foreign relations to straighten out, it has called on us to use our good offices. We have always maintained that indefinite relation. We helped to establish Liberia as a country after the war of 1812, and in 1844, when called on by Great Britain to say categorically whether or not we held a protectorate over Liberia, we replied that we did not, but, with the knowledge of the other countries interested, we helped her declare herself a republic. "It will take 10 years or more before this new concession will be developed sufficiently to stimulate other trade materially, so that any growth of political interest on the part of the United States is bound to be very slow." "An educational and social project for the little Republic of Liberia was ambitious and extensive as the imminent trial development planned that country by Hassan Flitstone, has been revealed in the appointment of Omar L. Sibley as educational代表 in Liberia of the Phelps-Stokes Fund, the American New York and Massachusetts Colonization Societies and the missionary bodies of the Episcopal Churches. Mr. Sibley has been commissioned by these various agencies, acting in cerr and with the officers of the clips-Stokes Fund directing the work, to formulate plans in cooperation with Liberian officials and representatives of the existing schools, for a complete redirection of all educational effort in the country. This work contemplated placing the conservation of health and the development of active industries in the foreground and will include farm and demonstration work similar to that being carried on in the United States by the extension service of the agricultural colleges. Well Equipped for Work Mr. Sibley has been connected with the State Department of Education in Alabama, and has been active in the agricultural extension service of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute and the University of Georgia. He spent three years in the Philippines for the Government, training groups of natives in modern agricultural methods. More recently he was assistant director of the Alabama Child Welfare Department, a position he resigned to accept the Liberian commission. During the war he was in charge of the rehabilitation of displaced soldiers in Alabama. Mississippi and Louisiana. He has done post-graduate work in social, industrial and economic branches at Harvard and Columbia. Because of his varied experiences and his contacts with Negro education in this country, Dr. Anson Phelps Stokee, whose Mr. Sibley to work in Liberia and for appointment was confirmed in a series of conferences with the organizations interested held last week in New York, Hartford and Boston. In educational and industrial aspects this second phase of Liberian development is considered by commercial authorities as important as the first, which was announced recently by Harryg R. Firestone. The Firestone interests are said to make a $100,000,000 investment in Liberia and a $100,000,000 announced the acquisition of 100,000 acres of land for the production of 250,000 tons of rubber annually, the employment of 300,000 natives, improvement of the principal harbor at Monrovia, the construction of railroads from the NEW WEST END HOTEL West Belle Place and Vandeventer Avenue Daily Rates $1.00 a Day and Up.

The 2000,000 natives of the interior are said to be strong and comparatively healthy people, but primitive and badly in need of training in the care of their health and in modern agricultural methods. If the country is to reap the benefit of the by American interests Based on Dr. Jones' Survey 4 The new educational program proposed is based on a survey made in 1920 by a commission, of which Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, Secretary of the Phelps-Stokes Fund, was Chairman. The report of the commission, written by Dr. Jones and comprising 325 pages, is considered the most informative publication on the education of native Africans ever issued in America. The cooperation of the colonization and missionary bodies with the Phelps-Stokes Fund trustees in the unification of the work in Liberia is said to be the practical application of the lessons contained in the Jones report. Liberia extends from a point 250 miles north of the equator nearly 500 miles along the West African coast its habitable region for the white race is a strip from ten to twelve miles wide, but with the interior it comprises 3,700 square miles, about the size of Texas. Because of the constant presence of malaria fever, the vitality of the people has been undermined, and this has retarded their progress, although the country is rich in both mineral and agricultural resources. The native products are rubber, coffee, cocoa, palm oil and several varieties of nuts, some of which are used for making dyes. No attempt has been made to work the mineral deposits, which are said to include coal and iron. It is felt by the various American agencies that if the Panama Canal Zone could be made habitable for the workmen and the American forces retained there, Liberia can be made healthful for its natives by sanitation and protection against mosquito communication of malaria. Although the country has a competent native medical force, largely trained in American colleges, its financial resources have been inadequate for such a program of sanitation as can now be carried out.

A. rooms supplied by a few rooms supplied by the university; and the possible side of the present Colored Y. M. C. A. Building on 12th street, northwest, and its replacement with a modern structure. Extending Education Many surveys have been made during the last year, resulting in the establishment of enlargement of educational programs at various points throughout the country, the report declared. New courses were developed under the educational department; embracing real estate and purchasing, and preliminary studies made for credit management and additional advertising courses. STORM DRIVES MAN CRAZY Associatee Negro Press MONGOMERY, Ala. Nov. 4- Craved by fear from the cyclone which swept a portion of Cranshaw county early Sunday morning, John Walker, a farm hand on the plantation of W. B. Hudgens, was taken from a storm cellar on the farm in such a crazed condition Sunday afternoon that it was found necessary to lock him up in the county jail. If Luter Burbank could only produce a permanent wave that was really permanent, he would find immortality waiting at the door. NINER SUSAN NATS It is surprising to find how rapidly my correspondents are increasing. Daily, a new Kewpie takes the responsibility, upon himself to write to me. With these, however, I am inviting others to do likewise. If there were as many Kewpies contributing to the column as there are correspondents, the Junior Ideas would be hard to "bent" (Please excuse term). I shall, in the future, expect more contributions, and I hope that before Nov. 16 I shall receive quite a few articles for Educational. Week (Nov. 16:23). I am anticipating receiving letters from the winners of the costest. These letters will be published Letter Week, which will begin November 27. The next contest will begin early in the year of 1926. I hope this contest will appeal more to the literary writers of the organization. Now, Kewpies, remember "A letter a day keeps sadness away" and "Conributions you know, increase the toner roll." SISTER SUSAN THE RED CARNATION (Con'l) Part 2 Fili loves Ellis, he is the one man who has captured her heart, and she loves him dearly. When they reach her home he kisses her warmly, and with a smile she runs to the house. Next evening Dan calls to take Fili to dine, and brings to her her favorite flower, red caprions. Fili kisses two of them and throws them to him. Dan puts both of them in his coat pocket and takes her to dine. Ellis and Fili meet often, go on wild parties and have many good times. On this part of evening they lay on the lawn. Fili, looking at the blue sky counting the stars and dreaming, speaks not a word. Ellis knows that Fili loves him, and because of this she begs him to marry her. Her request was in dine and he, Dpa, left her so she sky hung to have vanished from the earth. Fili, ashamed of humiliation, faces Dan again. Quietly she leaves the city, never to return again. She makes her home in the country to start life over again, taking her body with her. In the meantime, Dan has called to see her, bringing her red carmations, but also—in vain. He is hurt to his heart to think that Fina could have thought his love so warring. Heartbroken he journeys homeward, walking accidently into other pedestrians. Thrusting his hands into his pocket he draws out the variations she had given him, throws the fresh bouquet into a refuse can and Clinks. Where was the one who had given him the flowers after so warmly kissing them? Kissing them again he replaces them, in his pocket and continues his journey homeward. (To be continued next week) Kewpie, Fried Robinson. TALK O' THE TOWN Sister Susan is expecting to hear from the winners of the contest. Miss Chelia Hopkins, Route 2, Box 14, Oran, Mo.; Miss Louie Owens, 1114 E. 13th street, Pine Bluff, Ark.; and Miss Sarah Bulley, 3110 Frankling avenue, St. Louis, Mo., are the new members of the organization.

C., Nov. 4—The first steps in the arrangement of a 1926 National Negro Health Week were taken at a meeting of the representatives of several national organizations held in the office of the Surgeon General of the United States. The meeting was called by Surgeon General Cummings in response to a report by Dr. Robert Moton. Its purpose was to consider a program for the 12th annual Health Week and also to map out ways and means of adding to its usefulness. The next meeting of this group will be held at Tuskegee Institute on January 30th, at which time final plans for the 12th annual Week which begins April 4th, will be out- EVANGELIST WILLIAMS CHILLS NEGRO AUDIENCE The message of Evangelist Williams at Union Memorial Church last Sunday was just about what one might expect from a Southerner of his type. His talk had every charm terribile of one suffering with a bad case of colorblindness, vivid of anything like the love of Christ. The speaker had much to say about the old time religion, and the old black manny, but scripturally avoided the words brothers and sisters. He did, however, venture so far as to say that he had the love of God in his heart for the colored people; but quickly explained that he did not mean social equality. He told the colored people that the Lord loved, then and that Jesus "killed for them as well as He loved for the white folks; and that theirs were predestined to Jesus. This of course, brought down a few "innest" from his hearts, for the knew that, as well as he did. He took the Ten Commandments as his text and said that unless we keep the letter of the law, all were bound for hell. A packed house was present to hear the man, which seemed to try hard to make the connections in the softness of the air, they departed very much chilled. ARE THE WHITE RACES OF THE WORLD IN PERIL? Associated Negro Press LONDON, Eng. Nov. 4—Are the white races of the world in peril? Si, Chioza Money, ex-member of the Congress of the American ecologist, thinks they are his thesis is: Owing to the relative infertility of the white race civilization is in imminent peril of being swamped by what he calls barbarism. "Mankind," he writes, "as a whole continues to grow apace. But that growth is more marked among the less civilized sections of the human race." Chioza Money thinks that—the great war was partially responsible. "The races," he says, "who should lead the world in concert have done their best to injure each other and have succeeded only too well." But the tendency to limit population had set in among the "white races" in the war. In italy, for instance, the birth rate per thousand of population had fallen from 32.4 in 1912 to 29.3 in 1923, reaching the abnormally low figure of 17.9 in 1918, the last year of the war. The figures of England and Wales, says Money, are equally striking. In 1912 they were 23.9; in 1924, 18.8. On the other hand, the nations of the East maintain a high birth rate particularly Japan and Egypt. “There is only one real possession of territory,” writes Money, “and that is to people it. Unoccupied areas are not really possessed whatever flag may be flown. The white races cannot and must not expect the world the great majority of its people to be debarred from inhabiting and profiting by what the white man refuses to develop. “It follows from these considerations that the less room is occupied by the European races the more room is made for the others.” GOOD JOURNALISM AS A NOTED EDUCATOR SEES IT A famous educator in answering the question, what he considered good journalism, declared: I believe that the journalism which success best—and best deserves success—fears God and honors man; is stoutly independent, unmoved by pride of opinion or greed of power, constructive, tolerant, but never careless, self-controlled, patient, always unafraid; is quickly indignant at injustice; is unwavely by the appeal of privilege or clamor of the mob; seeks to give every man a chance and, as far as law and honest wage and recognition of human brotherhood can make it so, an equal chance; is profoundly patriotic while sincerely promoting international good will and cementing world camaraderie; is a journalism of humanity, of and for today's world. (Indian Owns World's) Associated Negro Press LONDON, England, Nov. 1-What must be the most magnificent and costly automobile in the world has just been constructed for the Maharajah of Pattiala, a reigning Indian Prince who visited London. Made large to the Maharajah's own design, the automobile cost more than $55,000 to build, and embodies features hitherto undreamed of. It is a 50 horse-power open touring car of the sports type, and has been built for sporting and hunting purposes. It has been painted in a camouflage color of khaki, yellow, green gray, and blue colors. Some detail of the equipment of this automobile "de luxe" are: Pure white ivory used for the steering wheel, steering column, and gear and brake handles. A bulbous back to carry spare tires and a drinking water tank. Mahogany cabinets to carry four days provisions and containing space for wine and Red Cross outfit. Searchlights for pursuing game at night and gun rests on each side of the car. Below each door is a light, which automatically switches on when the door is opened and illuminates the step, while a light is switched on of the automobile to force a way through dense bash or fend away stamped animals. COOLIDGE SHOULD FOLLOW OMAHA ADDRESS WITH ACTION Put The Machinery Of The Department Of Justice To Work On The Disfranchisement In The South. Stamp Out Political Segregation In Washington. Appoint Colored Citizens As Register Of Treasury And Minister To Haiti. Make Outstanding Appointments In The State, Agricultural and Commerce Depts. PRESIDENT WOULD THEN HAVE A DEFINITE CLAIM ON GOOD WILL OF COLORED AMERICA WASHINGTON, D. C. Nov. 4-Will Rogers, famous American humorist, continues to proclaim that "All I know is what I read in the papers." He is not reading very much, these days, about what the present Republican administration is doing for, Colored America. Obviously, President Coolidge and his Republican administration are on the defensive so far as - Colored America is concerned, and the men who were in the forefront of the last national campaign, headed by William Hatteman, Hatteman, headed by Miss Hallee Q. Brown of Wilberforce, Ohio, are little up to this hour with which they can point with "pride" that has been achieved in a definite way by the Republican administration. One of the real disappointments, unless some error has been made which we know not of, is the treatment accorded William C. Matthews. He has been announced as a special assistant to the Attorney General, "Compensation to be determined at the close of his service." In other word, he gets a job which only the most medicoe white man would offered, it is reasonable to assume his salary is problematic. His friends are hoping that some final interpretation will prove that it is commensurate with the dignity of the leadership of the colored forces, during the late campaign. There has been no outstanding appointment; nor has there been any outstanding act meriting unstinted praise, and giving voice to a better day, in national politics. There has been nothing done against the Negro; but there has been nothing done for him. In the previous sense the Coolidge administration, President Harding, aided and abetted by Clarence Miller, Joe Kealing of Indiana, and Bascom Slemp of Virginia started out to make the South "Lily White." They failed, and finally admitted it. The same group tried to get a white successor to the late Henry Lincoln Johnson in Georgia. They went to President Coolidge. The President said Georgia must decide for itself. Ben Davis, fearless editor and leader of Atlanta, was the answer. That helps some. President Coolidge has proclaimed, but he has not performed: That difference spells political dissatisfaction for Colored America—nationally. President Harding proclaimed in Bingham; and President Coolidge proclaimed in Omaha. They were different proclamations. One was graduation; the other condescending; one was a gentle effort, to kick the Negro out of the Republican party; the other was a strong appeal to the sober judgment of right thinking people for tolerance and justice. If President Coolidge should, forthwith, follow his Omaha address with some of the following, then he would have a definite claim on the good will of Colored America. A—Put the machinery of the department of Justice to work on the disfranchisement in the South B—Stamp out segregation in the departments in Washington. C-Appoint a Colored citizen as Minister to Haiti. Register of Treasury; make outstanding appointments in the State Department, Agricultural Department, and the Department of Commerce. Department. There are only a few of the propositions placed before President Coolidge in person last year, following the election. A notable group of Colored People, from all parts of America, visited the White House, stood about solemnly, and heard the late D. Cannon of Jersey City lay these petitions before the President. The President listened with great interest. In his response, couched in carefully and well-chosen words, the President declared that the requests were "reasonable." But there has been nothing done about them, other than talk to date. The talk on the racial side has been along this line: "When is Coolidge going to do something?" The talk on the other side has been: "We want to do something as soon as possible." It remains to be seen what ideas will be developed at the Washington conference this week. The fall elections are over, and the ship has set sail for the national elections of 1926. Negro citizens throughout the country will again be appealed to to "stand by the President." The men who led the battle in 1924 will again be asked to go out in the trenches—the same old trenches—not one whit closer to the goal of political opportunity. Handicapped By Political Weakness Colored America, nationally, is handicapped by political weakness, President Coolidge, Senator Butler, Republican National Chairman, various United States Senators, and others in national political power, know this, and hence are only casually concerned. There are two national committeemen, Perry Howard of Mississippi and now Ben Davis of Georgia. They get certain con- siderations, but it is not enough to reach the massacre of the people in various sections. There is one big Republican poli- A TRADE MAKER PAGES 9 TO 14 BULD FOLLOW US WITH ACTION A Department Of Justice To resement In The South. Stamp In Washington. Appoint Master Of Treasury And Min- outstanding Appointments In and Commerce Depts. GIVE A DEFINITE WILL OF COLORED AMERICA tical leader, who, if he should take to national politics like he has to local politics, could go before President Coolidge, and get a real hearing. That man is Edward H. Wright of Chicago. Wright has unquestioned political power and sagacity. He gets his power in terms of votes in elections where Senators, Congressmen, Governors, and others, have their political force at stake. He is acknowledged and honored by his constituency. He is dependable, and loyal to his race. Should he accompany Senator McKinley, or Senator Deneen, or Congressman Madden to the White House, and lay the claims of the race before the President, the Senators and the Congressmen would be compelled to back him up, without wavering, because Wright speaks with genuine authority. By the same token, it is a matter of equally amazing interest to hear the telephone jingle, and learn that Mr. This, Prof. That, Doctor Whoever-he-may-be is "on the line," Colored. In most cases there is toleration; in most cases there is indifference. In only a few cases is there shown that respectful consideration which bespeaks recognition of worth. These men may be influential in the race, and usually are; they may merit high respect from Colored America, but they don't excite official Washington. Why? Official Washington is clanish, and little disturbed by laymen. Colored America will get a hearing at court, when connected with official Washington. President Coolidge, Chairman Butler, and others in places of power, are not going very far, count on it, through mere good will and human sympathy. Colored America, here in Washington, will advance or go backward, according to political power. Prominent Men Aspire To Represent U. S. In Haiti Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 4-It is said on good authority that the President is considering appointing an outstanding member of the race as Minister to Haidt. Trouble over the appointment, however springs from two sources. First, the indisposition of the Haitian government to become enthusiastic over such an appointment and second the confusion of political conditions within the Race. To settle on a suitable republican is hard as to gain from Haidt her opinion on the situation. It is known that among the candidates for the position are Emmett J. Scott, secretary of Howard University, William C. Matthews, now special assistant to Charles E. Mitchell of West Virginia, Mr. Mitchell, of course, is being counted already out of the running, because the major appointment now held by the Race is claimed by Arthur G. Froe, Recorder of Deeds. Mr. Matthews is said to be disinclined to make any determined fight for the place because it would take him out of the country. The older guard composed of Church, Howard, Cohen, and Simmons are said to be sitting on the side lines with advice but are reported to have made no opposing move regarding either gentleman. The busiest friends of the candidates are those who are supporting Mr. Scott. The advice of Dr. R. R. Monton will be sought by the powers it is said before any disposition is made. ..LAST OF SLAVE KLAN DIES Associated Negro Press HAMMOND... Lx.

After the uprout at Ephesus, the Jews held wait for Paul to destroy him. This plot obligated him to retrace his steps, through Macedonia instead of taking a more rapid sea voyage. He married with the disciples at Tresus, meeting with them around the table of the Lord, and speaking words of encouragement to them. In order to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost, he did not go to Ephesus, but sent for the elders, of the church at Ephesus to meet him at Milutus. The picture of Paul's farewell to the Ephesian elders is a very touching one. His object in this address was to impress upon them their responsibilities. The analysis of his address has been so well made by Doctor Sigler that it is substantially reproduced here. L. Paul Reviews His Three Years' Ministry at Ephesus (v. 18:21) 1. The Spirit of His Ministry (v. 18). (1) He was humble, "serving with all humility of mind." (2) He was tender, working for them in tears. (3) He was faithful in the face of trials which befitted him because the Jews were lying in wait for him. 2. The Diligence of His Ministry (sv. 20-21). (1) He made known everything which was of profit unto them. This every true minister or teacher will do. (2) He taught both in public and in private. A minister's work is not done when his pupil ministrations are over. The effectiveness of his public work is sometimes determined by his touch with the people in their homes. (33) He neglected in class, whether Jews or Greeks. The Christian minister must be exceedingly careful here. 3. The Theme of His Ministry (v. 21). This was repentance and faith. Mon and women need to repent of their sins and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. 11. Paul Presents the Present State of Things (vv. 22-27). 1. His immediate Purpose (vv. 22). This was to go to Jerusalem. The captain of the Spirit loved him to go forward though he did not know the things that should be fulfilled him there. 2. The Shadows Lying Across His Path (vv. 23). Though bonds and afflictions awaited him, he went forward to his work with undaunted courage. 3. His Fixed Purpose (vv. 24). 3 His Pixel Prophecy (v. 249) This was to complete his ministry, which calls to testify the gospel of the grace of God which he had received from the Lord Jesus Christ. 4 A Sorrowful Precedence (v. 253) These imping whom he had labored should face his face no more. 5. He Leaves No Debt of Obligation Behind (vv. 2627). He was purified from the blood of all men. III. Paul Seta Forth the Ephesian Elders' Responsibility (vv. 2625). 1. Motives to Duty (vv. 26). (1) They received their call and commission directly from the Holy Spirit. (2) The flock for which they must care was purchased with the precious blood of Christ. 3. Petals Ahead (vv. 2629). (1) Grievous wolves would enter the Book and misplessly devour them. (2) False teachers would arise from among their number. 3. Inventives to Watch (v. 31). Paint's own example. For three years he watched night and day with tears. 4. He Commends Them to God, and His Word (v. 32). He knew that this Word was able to build them up. 5. He Was Unselfish in His Service (v. 33). (1) He did not covet any man's silver, gold or apparel. (2) He showed with his own hands and taught. IV. Paul's Prayer (vv. 36-38). *Having spoken these words he knelt and prayed with them all.* Patience Patience is a beautiful trait, but it is not worn oftentimes by those who walk on life's sunny side in silver slippers. It is the product of days of adversity. "The trial of your faith works patience."—Evangelical Messenger.

LOVE STORIES ARE STILL FAVORITES WITH GIRLS LONDON, July. 25—Young "Miss 1925" as a sentimental muller and eager to delve into a love story. Bookshellers say a novel with plenty of passion and a few sentimental moonlight scenes is sure of a big sale among the girls of today. The modern miss also likes happy endings to her stories. Heads of librarians tell the same tale in bookshellers. The boom in "shill" is a library manager, a is a sign that girls changed. The strong, silent man who proves his love by beating his sweet heart is as popular as ever. Another librarian is authority for the statement that most of the stories reading of today is being done by men. A few girls take out books of novels and stories of plays, but most of them well-thumbed stories of love. DR. DETT NAMED DIRECTOR OF MUSIC IN D. C. SCHOOLS WASHINGTON, D.C. Oct. 28 Dr. R. N.

For her prince is in the above rubies Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in flute to come" "That's enough for tonight Magic." My father's voice caused me to realize that, I had been reading almost me, unilaterally for half an hour. I drew a length of relief as I closed the heavy firmly Bible and did it aside. I wondered if life would go on like this forever. Mother and Duj insisting that I read verses out of the Bible to them every night before I was allowed to say my how I lay me down to sleep. "Now daughter, I tell you why I wanted you to read that, your parlor chapter, I shrugged my shoulders and slipped down in my chair in resignation. For I sensed that I was in trouble. I was in trouble. But if father saw the shadow of barrenness pass over my countenance he showed no signs of愁郁. "thinks these days," he continued, "place entirely too little value on their affections. Now in the days of my youth it was different. A smile thus was not necessary as flighty as a kiss is given today." I sink further into my chin and repeat. I realized that this was to be worse than I thought, all the things on earth I considered horrid, the high moral posture was the worst. Bad, a minister, scribbling to show me the toll of a lightly given kiss. What did he know about the kiss of today? "Nothing - simply nothing." I hadn't meant to speak out at all. But without an explanation of my strange behavior other than I was sleepy. I ran off to bed. But the words of the wise Solomon did not have me in peace, long after I was in bed with the moonlight falling softly across my bed. I lay thinking. I thought of Ned Ramsey, the one man on earth who could range my heart to further strangely whenever he was near me. I didn't know whether I really loved Ned, but I was just as satisfied as I was with Olivebite (the little midwife home town) that I liked to think of him as a future husband. That his father was Burton Ramsey of the Spiith & Ramsey Wholesale Grocery Company did not outweigh the fact that Ned was a very handsome and altogether desirable young man. He had a way of telling a girl just how charming she was without seeming to foolishly datter her. I knew Ned liked me and I knew there was only one other girl in Othel the whale I could consider a rival. Julia Evanson, the daughter of Professor Evanson. Her father was principal of the Chelsea high school, niece was pastor of the Mothdist church. They had always been friends. But I felt anything but friendship for the trail looking Julia with her three arm-pawed eyes. She always played the piano for the junior choir, taught a class in Sunday School and did a lot of other things, all of which I considered personally idle. I had never cared for church services. All course as the pastor's daughter I always must attend. But through all I patiently waited, and if I prayed at all I was for a miraculous deliverance from the monotony of the church and village life. The next Hamsey I hoped I had at last found the desired route of escape. Or... married to Ned I would insist on leaving Olivia instantly, pephals for St. Louis, which had always been my city of dreams. The next day was New Year's Eve. I hugged the cover close to me as I thought of the parry given at the thames below the next night. Ned I loved to carry me. And I had severely drawn a dog named dog the saving account and sent him last dinner of it for a soft pink dress that sparkled with rhinoes, and a white velvet cape with white fur that seemed to float about me like riffs of tshawy tshawy. Dad would be very angry I knew, but I didn't mind. Finally I tugged over and lifted off into the land of Ned. I want Just Ransom to propose to me this very evening. And I stalk your charming self in that safe her. Make sure I woke up a playful nigger at myself in the mirror as I jolted on a last dab of powder. Again in the words of the world's wisest man came here. Why would that still care, perked in sticking in my mind just when I wanted most to forget. Forget what I started slightly at the query that came unintended into my thoughts. had given my kisses lightly for the first two years. Why should I forget that night when Jack Clifford had driven his car far out on the moon's prairie, and because he had been drinking too much had threatened to make me walk back to town. Jack Clifford was one of the first men about town who he besieged of their contempts, oft times to their vicious sorrow. There that had been the affair with Don Watson. Nothing to make one feel badly, yet I wouldn't walt the man I wanted to marry to know of these little no harm affairs. Don Watson was a rising young physician whose motto was "I'm too young to marry." But he loved to play the beat brunnet to every girl like this girl; he would say, "It's too young to all tied up for some one friend. But long as there is only one life in this world for each of us why not live today for tomorrow we might marry." I hated his silly way of calling every girl he met girls. I didn't enjoy his little "tomorrow we might marry" joke. But some fun was better than no fun at all, and a bean (brunnel or otherwise) was not to be despised in the theatre. Then the Ramsey's had moved to town. Ned, a tall good looking chap who was always jolly, but never too familiar. "A clean cut clap" father had said of him. He along with the rest of Dahlie's maidens I just found my best efforts to charm Ned Ram sey. The loud peal of the door bell shocked me quickly into my senses. I had leaned over over it. In that cramping position until I reelt dizzy. I heard Mother's step outside the door and knew she was coming to give her final caution. Maste, don't stay out so late tonight, dear. Your father is positively disgusted with the bours you keep. And I'm afraid afraid you won't come too far lightly. I afraid you'll come too far lightly. I afraid you'll come too far lightly. I don't try to turn over a pich loot. "Oh minister! for heaven's sake don't throw a hammer out the last good time of the year. I'm old enough to take care of myself. Don't you and bird worry." Music: You look prettier than any girl I've ever seen. I buried my chin deep into the far collar and musted cleavy to Ned as his car speed plung into the darkness. Just before we reached the Ranssey home Ned almost stopped the ear and leaped over and drew me in his arms. "I have to kiss before any other person sees all this hotness," Maxie. I had kissed Ned all sorts of times but tonight was the first time I had smallest the odor of liquor on his breath. It made me feel less like kissing the prize: charming of my dreams. Ned was Ned and his infinity was highly desirable. to offer. Inside the Ranssey mansion was all blaze with lights. Scores of thirty silver lilies dangled from the beautiful chandelier. The sweet scent of the house lilies mingled with the odor of the famous Ranssey pennil, which had mounted a pretty penny for some enterprising boogler, drifted through the large rooms. Julia Evanson was there, and I smiled as I masked the plain black velvet dress she wore. Not a single one moment. I have shared brown shoulders and her small cuffed face with the eyes that looked more than ever. I danced first with Ned, then with Jack Childrid. And I saw Mrs. Ramsey watching us with an expression that he ascribed to Jack, held me closer than they ascribed to Will. "Will dance like a person who has an ounce of sense," I shapped angrily. I was truly angry with Jack for I didn't wish to make an enemy of Ned's mother. Ned came over and drew me aside. "Come on into the library with me. Mazle. It's growing darrel uncomfortable in here any way." My heart fluttered and I felt that he must have noticed how nervous I was. I let him lead me across, the large hall and thrilled as he drew me to him. "Here, take a sack," and he lifted me as he would have a child and set me on the library table. Then bending me as I was a sack he kissed me on the back. "I knew he to the queen of the ball. You're here. First girl here tonight. Mazle." Then followed more kisses and with every breath I was a beautiful, lovely meen, but never once did he speak the words I loved to hear. At last disgusted I tore myself from the arms and slipped back into the ball room. I did not care to dance again but wandered far over into a deserted corner behind a large fern plant and sank into a chair. How long I had been staring into space trying to think and shed bitter tears of humiliation and defeat I didn't know. Some one speaking on the other side of the ball form caused my heart to skip a beat. And until the day I die these cruel words will burn themselves into my brain. Could I be dreaming? Surely it wasn't it couldn't be? No! I speaking: "Listen to me, Julia. I know I'm not bad but good enough to touch the hem of your garment, so I do love you." I saggered to my feet and through an opening between the small firm branches I could see them. Julia's large brown eyes looked up at Niel, and he gazing down hips he eyes as if they meant heaven to him. "But I thought it was Maze like you liked, Sed, and." "Oh don't finish! I admit that I am ashamed of that little affair. But Tulia. If you give me a chance I will prove that all the silly sights on earth can't mean anything to me. Girls like Maze always attire, men some how. And sound or later every man has his thrus with them. I don't intend to say mean things about any girl, Julia, but you must know about the rumor concerning Maze—about her letting Clifford and Dose Warbon make a fool of her. No man could really care for a girl like that. I can't exactly explain but she's the kind of girl that been forget." I don't know why I didn't scream out to the yopot. I seemed forced to the yopot. Tears dripped my eyes and a sack hooked in my throat. I saw him raise her hand to his lips. "Will you be my wife, father?" For answer she put out her hands and he drew her to him. "Not in the regal mad embrace he always held me, but tenderly as though she was in flower he feared to crush. He held her closer as he bent his lips to hers in what I some how knew was their first kiss. I saw him lead her back to the dancing floor. Blindly I tried to stumble out into the hall. I only wanted to be away. But Doctor Watson met me and claimed a man dance. "Let's get out of here. Mazie. Want to take a drive?" I did. I wanted to go any place, any where away from that house. The muske that had sounded to sweet earlier in the evening had come a herdle of noisers. As I felt the sting of the cold air in my spirit my muscles somewhat recruved. And I lay back contented to watch the stars as we began to leave the suburbs for the rolling country behind as whistles shrieked, bells chased us and fireworks blamed the ale. Don slipped an arm about me and whispered, "Remembr the saying about what you do on New Year's day you'd be doing all the year? Well I start this one night. If I must be damned to do anything a whole year let it be damned THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY NOV. 6, 1925 the prettiest, jolliest girl in Gienko. I drew back and shoved Dona's arm away. "Keep away from me! I'm sick of you mugger. I almost shouted at him. Dona had been drinking and he didn't bother to choose his words. Yes, that's it! I guess you are a's of (you) men, for the trouble with a girl (like you is) that she likes too many at the samp time. Why not try the diversion of letting one man's kisses do it? The sharp sarcasm in my voice cut like a knife. But I clenched my hands and looked straight **answer** "Now girls like Jalina Eranston—$ Bush!" I did scream then. Don't you dare mention her name to me again over do you hear?" Just as you say, my little spider. But there's the Hummingbird Bird Inn. Suppose we celebrate with a lunch and a drink? I hesitated no distance. Then rebellion rose up in my heart. I had not lost, but why cry over spilled milk? This was a new year and I wouldn't make a chance on breaching all the year. All High. Go in. Saw a fish of our prison. Saw a fish of our prison. He led me inside. "Private thing begun," his said to the waiter who came to meet me. "But, Dan, Who I tested?" "If we stay down here some one will see us and tell you father and there will be the dickens to pay." His explanation was true enough, but I felt a bit uneasy as we followed the man upstairs. Inside the room, Dan tenderly removed my cap and folded one in his arms. His breath felt hot and weaked with humor as he placed his lips to mine. A wave of air gust came through my body as I shoved him down and abused me. quee. "Carry me home." I stumbled. Just then a scream rent, the air and there was heavy gnumbing all about us. Quick as a flash, Don drew me over near the window. "Dam this hick's a raid!" and he swore again. We are caught like rats in a trap unless this window proves our salvation. I looked out the window and shrank back. It seemed a mile to the ground. "I'll drop you down to the balcony and they follow and help you out the ground." "Don" I cried in treazed terror. "He quiet! he snapped in his roughest manner. Here, hold onto my arm." I felt myself "swele the hasty" with a skipping thud. Then I looked up to see Don struggling with some one who commanded in loud tones that he "stick 'em up." Cragged with fear. I leaped blindly into space. I felt that seemed to be a thousand thorns piering my flesh. I heard a frightful hipping sound as my hands palmed dollar bills into a dozen f彰ments. And I sank into a delightful darkened space I heard graff vultures and had a moony gary glimpse of moving lights. (CONTINUED NEXT WEEK) What happened to Mazle and her friend Doctor Watson? Does her little New Year's fun cause a tragedy in the small town of Olethe? Will Don Watson marry her to shield her from the nondiscipline tones of gears?

Chase Assoc.ordo Negro Press One thought in President Coolidge's recent address before the National Council of Congregational Churches in Washington seems to have arrested the attention of the reading public, and that is where the President knew no "ADEQUATE SUPPORT FOR THE FORM OF GOVERNMENT EXCEPT THE WHICH COMES FROM RELIGION" There are some who regard this utterance on the part of our Chief Executive—as unfortunate, while others believe that religion if correctly followed might be a tremendous power for good in the world. The President believes in tolerance. That has, come to be thoroughly understood since his speech at Omaha before the American Legion. Whether his speech has, as it were, "fired the shot heard round the world" remains yet to be seen. For two significant things have recently happened. A court in California has entered a woman to jail because Communism, and the Supreme Court of the State of New York has refused a charter to the American Association for the Enforcement of Theism" Of course, church generally will be glad. Of this he causes in the application for the charter this association stated as its object "to abolish the belief in God, together with all forms of religion based on that belief." At another of the sessions of this (National Council of Congregational Churches) the question of race was discussed. Prof. Plato Durham of Atlanta, Ga., in a speech the sub-of which was "Christian Race Relations." stated that unless the white and Negro races飞 to gather on a basis of equality, "The United States will be torn asunder." "This was followed by an address by the Rev. Dr. Gauss-Glenn Atkins, of the Athena Theological Seminary, who took as a subject "The Bridge Builders, declaring that "the United States will be a coward nation unless it offers the same protection of the FLAG TO THE NEGRO AS IT DOES TO THE WHITES, and if there be no process under our religion to live together in peace, WE MUST GET ANOTHER RELIGION" Race prejudice and in tolerance to be "flourishing like green bay trees" and the American people on the who wish to glory in their speakers might not state a new day is dawning. But, O God, if it to remain dawn forever? Interracial committees are meeting, trying to adjust differences, there is spreading over this, supposed land of the free and home of the brave" like the Octopus, an effort to deny to men and women the right to live, as they desire, the larger, fuller, freer life. They are not wanted in certain "restricted, exclusive districts." And some stores in large cities are making it known that they do not cater to Negro trade. Something more must be done than there meeting and talking the thing over. Something must be done to bring about a change in the thought of those who have to do with teaching, with preaching, and especially to men of the white race who give out information through the power of all powers, the press. Men and women everywhere must be taught to believe that the teachings of Jesus Christ and the prince of coals must be taught to coincide. Men must be taught to know that the very things upon which this Government is founded make for tolerance, good will, the pursuit of happiness, and that unless these things are respected and given to each man, regardless of race, color or creed, there can be no lasting peace.

Edwards Associated Negro Press 29—He was born in Santiago de Cuba in 1848. He joined the insurgent army as a private in 1852, and his natural ability and personal magnetism as a leader soon brought him to the front, smoking, and second only to Gomaz. Under his skillful leadership the Spanish were defeated at Demajugua and LaGaleta; his campaign in Baracaua in 1875 showed masterly generalship, as did his outer roit of Santacaledes at San Unio. His achievements in the campaign of 1855 in the Pinar del Río Province, and his battles at Parajillo and Jojo among the most brilliant feats in the history of Cuba's struggle for independence. While in the Trocha, between Mañana and Mariel in December 1896, attended by only his staff, he was surrounded by a Spanish force and killed HOOS[T?] (Answer to Hossett—25—Jethroo of Midian (Exodus 18—12 to 27) POOR MANAGEMENT AIDS POOR FARMS' HIGH COST WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 4 The average pauler in the United States obtains an expenditure of $334.64 annually for maintenance and has 2.14 acres of land cultivated for his support, the department of labor found in averaging the varying figures from states of the union. The per capita value of buildings and equipments devoted to the pauler's care average $1,118.96. States of the union were shown to have widely different ideas as to what and how should be done for their paupers. in Nevada, the subsistence and maintenance of almshouse inmates cost per year $85.10 per paupers. in Alabama it cost $18.52. In South Dakota, the property investment in almshouses and almshouse farms per person cared for is $5,600, while in Mississippi it is $415.63 One of the reasons for high cost the department said, is the large number of small institutions devoted to the care of the poverty stricken. It was found that one-third of all such establishments had less than 10 inmates, and one-half had less than 25. "The small almshouses," it was added, "stand out as the web of indifference and neglect which begins with a public that either knows nothing of its existence or has so little concern that it pays no attention to conditions." AFRICAN MISSIONARIES VISIT HAMPTON INST HAMPTON, Va. Nev. 2-Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, formerly Associate Chaplain of Hampton Institute and chairman of the two Education Commissions recently sent to the British Government to study the educational needs of Africa, in his report urged England to adapt to the natives of its African Colonies; the Hampton system of education inaugurated by General S. C. Armstrong, the founder of Hampton Institute. Dr. Jones and the Phelps-Stokes Foundation director, have arranged to have prominent African missionaries from Uganda, Rhodesia, Gold Coast, and other African Colonies, visit America this winter for the purpose of studying the system of education that has been used so successfully by the Negroes of this country by Hampton, Tuskegee, and other colored schools of the South. Among the missionaries who have recently visited Hampton are Dr. J. E. Reeves, native of the Gold Coast, educated in the University vice principal of the native college at Achimba, Gold Coast, for which the British Government has recently appropriated 500,000 pounds. Archcacen Matthews, Rev. and Mrs. H. M. Grace, Rev. and Mrs. Herbert T. Wright, all of Uganda, and Father Harry Buck, of the Community of the Resurrection, and Miss Mabel Shaw of Rhodesa have visited Hampton institute during October who expressed themselves enthusiastically in their work. Hampton methods which they hope to adopt successfully in the educational work of their missions for the African natives. The bread cast upon the troubled waters of the educational world by General Armstrong at Hampton institute in years past is 'returning many' fold. The Armstrong ideo of "Education for Life," now recognized so generally by the schools of this country, is more and more being adapted to the educational needs of backward races throughout the world. CRIME AND THE COLORED RACE In a recent report of the grand jury, the statement was made that there are many more Negroes in the fall than there are whites. That is a remarkable statement from that source, and if it is true—and we are not disposed to contradict it—then there is especial merit in the other statement in the same concession. "The condition calls for action on the behalf of the unlawful organizations." We are disposed to amend that part of the statement by saying that there seems to be call for action on the part of the Republican Committee of the city and state. We have no thought whatever of criticizing that august body, the grand jury. Neither do we mean to point an accusing finger at the police, the prosecuting officers or the courts; but at the same time we cannot retain from suggesting to the committee mentioned the propriety of going after and GETTING the facts in the matter. Are there more Negroes in the jail because whites because it is easier to catch as the white man can? Are there more Negroes in the jail than whites because it is easier to catch and send a Negro to jail than it is to land a white criminal in a cell? These and many other very apposite questions are suggested. This city has a population of approximately .900,000. Of this number, less than 100,000 are Negroes. It is generally estimated that there is one colored person for each Negro and blacks in jail were equal, this would argue that ten times as many Negroes as whites are criminals. There are a good many people who will not readily accept this. But if the statement of the grand jury is correct, that there are MORE blacks in the apportionment to the Negroes is just that much worse. As a rule, Negroes are Republicans. Hence our suggestion that the Republican committees should look into the matter. Is it possible that Negroes are victims of persecution on the part of the police or other authorities having to do with the prevention and punishment of crime. We have no knowledge on that head, and it is because we and so many others have no such knowledge that we make this suggestion to the committees. There are many things that justify such a command consideration of the police command consideration. There are not many Negro gangsters. That must have effect in reducing the Negro criminals. — Far the larger part of the automobile crimes committed are by white persons. Comparatively few Negroes own and drive their own cars. Most of the colored auto drivers are skilled chauffeurs. They have to secure a license to be permitted to take employment as chauffeurs. Hence they must be skilled to some extent at least. On the other hand, many thousands of white people, children and women especially, drive all over town, without having to have license because they drive or say they drive their own cars. Per the laws of these are unskilled and the automobile committees are committed by them—the mishaps, killings, speed law violations, traffic law violations. Here we have another set of crimes or at least law violations wherein the whites predominate. Mention of these things is made just by way of supporting the suggestion that Republican committees should get at the facts as to the possible injustice towards the enforced by those in authority. There are arguments on the other side, of the Negroes again, that the Negroes are discriminated against in the matter of making bond and keeping out of jail. It may be that because they lack funds they cannot make as good defense as white criminals. Any way the fact remains that it would be well for the committees to look into the matter. The Negro is entitled to justice, but the Negro is not entitled to murder of crime as in all other things. He is not entitled to any flavors, neither is it fair to discriminate against him. Let the world have the whole story—and the TRUE STORY.—The Censor. MIGRATION OF THE NEGRO By Dr. Reginald Matthews The steady migration of the Negro from the South is not a sporadic movement nor does it have its inception in the popular chaotic con- flict of the Civil War. The footsteps of a great war. Neither can it truthfully be said there is any of the wandering or nomadic element in the movement of our people from the land of oppression as symbolized by the South to the industrial and educational opportunities. The movement is steady and constant. Negroes coming from all sections of the South, showing that those courses which stimulated migration are by no means localized any particular section of the South. Negroes coming from the area below the Mason and Dixon line. When we consider the causes of migration of the Negro from the South and the crippling effect which his wholesale leaving will have upon the industrial life of the South, it is indeed surprising that this generalized exodus had not had its origin years sooner, for it is an uncontrovertible fact that Negro labor is the backbone of southern industry and his migration will be felt by a financial loss to the South annually proportionate to the number of migratory Negroes. Fear of mob violence, peonage, low wages and poor educational facilities for their children are the principal reasons for the steady trend of Negroes northward, where they are recognized and treated as citizens and where their children are unlimited educational advantages. The young Negro of today is not the Negro of a generation or two ago. He does not believe in turning both cheeks to be smacked. He is more, venturesome than his fore-bearers. More prone to get away from those conditions for which there seems to be no immediate remedy and to find a place where he can give expression to those ideals which the white South has forced him to keep dormant. The Negro in the South knows from bitter experience that physical re-treatment against the tyrannical treatment, which the South means to him and perhaps countsless others an untimely and oftimes an unminious death. His only alternative lies in seeking a new home to the North. The South faces a tremendous labor question, a crisis in her industrial history, which can only be remedied by a complete metamorphosis of her present creed in regard to the status of the Negro, and we anticipate no sudden change in the policy of the South towards the Negro in a manner occasionally some southern newspapers wax eloquent over the fragrant in injustices perpetrated upon the Negro, suggesting a mass of inconsistent illogical remedies. There are other southern papers honest enough to call a spade a spade and have attempted to depict conditions just as they are preaching a same doctrine against these conditions, and trying to stem the propaganda of lies and camouflage, but by a forecast of a better era in the treatment of the Negro. The capitallic South controlling the legislating bodies of the South has fought to keep the Negro in the South, through the enactment of laws penalizing northern labor agents, and the enactment of other law tricks designed to frustrate migration of the Negro. The South has hired a handful of Negro renegades, who, with the gleam of the white man's gold in their eyes have treacherously preached to the Negro to remain in the South, but the concerted efforts of these race traitors, have had little or no effect "upon the exodus. If the present rate of migration continues, it is only a question of time when the center of the Negro population in the states where the man now the Maiden and Dixon line, but will have moved North, where their political strength will be an appreciated factor in National affairs. Already we see a panic-striken South awakening to the seriousness of hundreds of thousands of Negroes leaving the white man's farms and cotton fields, and we wonder whether in the end his business capidity or his insane prejudice shall conquer. EVOLUTION IN BALTIMORE EVOLUTION IN BALMORE The evolution mania has gotten as far North as Baltimore, and John Hogan's university proclaims that twenty-five monkey monkeys are on their way from the -Himalayas pounches of Asia to Baltimore where an exhaustive attempt will be made to find out for ony and fr all the real truth about the origin of man. Several white scientists, who have charge of the experiment, will keep records of the habits of the monkeys, together with their births, deaths, parental instincts, and social relationships, and the monkey colony will be carefully compared with those of man. Performant statistical statistics will be introduced as expert 'evidence which the Scopes case comes from Tennessee for final adjudication. Not being very well acquainted with Asatic monkeys, we do not know just what they will do under the restricted environment which will be carefully shaped for them at Johns Hopkins University. We are venturing to suggest, however, some activities which we believe they would not engage in, even though they were greedy a chance. We are confident they would not become consumers of bootleg liquor; nor do we believe they would join a lynching party, though they can find some excellent instructors on this side of the ocean. While a training course was offered, we convinced that one would never develop sufficient thought to recognize color distinctions. If a monkey were highly trained, we don't believe he would refuse aid to an injured man, as was recently the case in Memphis, Tenn. We certainly wish the Johns Hopkins scientists great success in their experiments and trust that they may achieve results which will be of use to the scientific and civilized world. But we would like to add that Johns Hopkins is a university of twenty colored scholars to its medical and other departments for careful study and observation and opportunity. Such an evolution as this, we sincerely believe, would be of much benefit, particularly to the University, the Negroes and the Nation, to all of whom the scientific and social relationships of soulful men should be of far greater importance than the origin and habits of soulless monkeys. Cheer up! An ill world always blows someone some good. Now that the coal strike is out, oil-burning furnaces are selling like hot cakes. With all due respect to Colonel Clarence Darrow (white), who heads the Sweet defense attorneys at Detroit, it would have been inspiring if our own William H. Lewis had been retained to occupy a place of equal rank with the Colonel. PAGE*TWO. 7S ee THESST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY NOV. '6, 1925". Mle Eile S. Diet) ol BEALW.
