Hamilton's Methods Denounced—Attorney Peyton Commended—Mr. Todd Received an Ovation—Rev. Pinn's Prediction. His Strong Speech Enthuses the People. The Parents' League met in the Metropolitan M. E. Church, Tuesday evening. There is no abatement in the enthusiasm of the organization. The parents were out in their best attire and manifested great enthusiasm. Many strong speeches were made By Rev. Waldron and Rev. Pinn, who predicted the downfall of tyranny in the schools and declared with much vigor that there would be no let-up until victory, was won. He said there would be no investigation behind closed doors, and the people would see that the colored schools would be conducted and managed upon a high basis. At the conclusion of Rev. Pinn's address, Editor W. Calvin Chase was introduced. He paid his respects to the arbitrary action of Geo. E. Hamilton, the president of the Board of Education, which was loudly applauded by the people. Mrs. Anna Murray made one of the most eloquent and sensible speeches that one would care to listen to. She is a most forcible speaker and a woman of remarkable intellect. She was applauded during the delivery of her address. Attorney R. R. Horner, formerly a member of the Board of Education and one of the attorneys for the league, was at his best. His address was applauded throughout its delivery. Mr. T. V. Todd, a father of several children, who read the riot act to the Board of Education last Monday afternoon, received one of the most enthusiastic receptions that has ever been accorded a speaker. He also addressed the league. Attorney Hill also spoke. Rev. Finn asked the vast audience of there was anyone present who favored retention of R. C. Bruce; if so, let him or her stand. No one stood. It was decided to picket the schools and continue the fight until Bruce was removed or until the present Board of Education was abolished. Rev. Tanner's speech was full of ginger. He paid his respects to a man in the meeting, who devoted more space than sense to an attack on the league. It was a letter, he said, that was written by some other person, which contained less sense than the man who signed his name to it. Attorney Peyton's name, received enthusiastic applause. The meeting declared its confidence in him. GRADUATING EXERCISES OF FRELINGHUYSEN UNIV. A splendid audience assembled at the John Wesley Church last Friday evening to witness the graduating exercises of the Frelinghuysen University. It was the fourth annual commencement of that institution. Rev. William Wallace McCary, dean of the corporation, reviewed the work of the university from its incipiency to the present time, showing its progress step by step, and telling how it has grown into popularity in this community within the last year, because of the attitude assumed by it on proper educational lines and by reason of its firm stand for justice and fair play for all classes of citizens. He concluded by presenting Prof. Jesse Lawson, president of the university, who spoke substantially as follows: "The Frelinghuysen University is now a full-fledged entity in this community. It has come to stay, and we shall aim to make it a real factor in the education and uplift of the masses. It was called into being to --- fill that 'vacant chair' in our educational system, and it started at the bottom and is working its way upward, step by step, lifting as it goes, and filling its mission by arousing the people to a consciousness of the conditions by which they are surrounded, and pointing them to the great possibilities which lie beyond. A practical education thoroughly mastered is the goal to which all should strive. An education that is not practical will be of little service to anybody in an age like this. The demand of the times is for persons who can answer the call and do the work the world wants done and in the manner the world wants it done. No others need apply. The Frelinghuysen University is trying to meet these demands by supplying men who, in every way, measure up to the requirements of the situation and who can make good in any position they are willing to assume. But a practical education is not the only thing for which the Frelinghuysen University stands. Nay; that is only a fractional part of the basic system underlying the educational scheme of the Frelinghuysen University. It stands pre-eminently for manhood rights and the manhood of the race! There is no place in our system for parasites and sycophants. "The Freelinghniysen University is absolutely unhampered by any obligation that will tend to circumscripte or fetter the rights of the people! We want every right and every opportunity enjoyed by any other American citizen! We are willing to accept nothing less. It is a fearful thing to educate the intellectual part of man at the expense of his sensibility. "We are not Negroes but Americans to the manor born, and have a right to be included in the term "American people," and no right, to be excluded from that term or designation. Among our graduates tonight are men who gallantly bore aloft the Stars and Stripes in the world's great conflict that is now about to close by the signing of the peace treaty at Versailles. The acid test has been applied over and over again to the patriotism and pure Americanism of the colored people of the United States, and at no time has anything other than the pure metal been revealed. We are 100 per cent pure Americans! "The first stage is passed; we now enter upon the second. All moral obligations arise from one's ability to perceive relations. The hope of the colored people, in the United States lies in the fact that they demand that a good, healthy moral atmosphere shall permeate any system of education under which their children are to be educated! It is due to this demand that the colored people in the United States have made the great progress they have within the five decades just past. They may not have read—nay, never heard—of the great book by Benjamin Kidd, entitled "Social Evolution," but, they have acted upon the principle inculcated therein, that "the progress of a people, in the long run, does not depend so much upon what they know, have or even upon what they are able to do, as upon the attitude they assume and maintain towards great moral issues." This, indeed, is the crux of the whole situation. Men who face backwards and systems which run contrary to the upward progress of the people have come to the parting of the ways. Our faces are turned towards progress, and our engines have been well oiled and set in motion for the journey; and we warn all obstructionists to clear the track!" On June 30 we begin our summer course of six weeks of intensive study, and our doors are wide open to all who desire to enter. We must and will have a clean moral system! John R. McCormick, B. S., LL. B., a member of the post-graduate class, presented a well-written paper, entitled "Due Process of Law," and Edmund M. Chaplin delivered a mas- WASHINGTQN, D. C.

Adams. Sergt. J. A. Jamieson, old 15th Infantry, N. Y. N. G., of New York City, violinist and musician, was a recent visitor to the city. *** Mrs. Mazie Earhart Clark, song and lyric writer of "Cincinnati, Ohio, paid a flying visit in the interest of her compositions. *** Mr. Eddie Green, famous composer of "A Good Man's Hard to Find," is in the city this week on business and engagements. *** Mr. N. B. Brown of New York City, a former member of the Washington Concert Orchestra, visited his old friends recently hereabouts. Miss Elsie Austin, now Mrs. Breeding, was united in holy wediock to the Rv. Mrs. Breeding, pastor of the Miles Memorial C. M. E. Church, on June 25. Mrs. Breeding is favorably known in musical circles as a singer: *** Mrs. May Abbott rendered a most pleasing soprano solo at Miles Memorial C. M. E. Church, last Tuesday evening. At the Beulah Baptist Church, where she sang, the pastor styled her in complimentary terms as the "Angel-artiste." *** Don't forget to attend the Federation of Choirs and Musicians at John Wesley, Sunday, July 13, at 4 p. m. There you'll see and find local music folk getting together, without frills and fashions. The local organization of the Initial Conference of Negro Musicians and Artists held a meeting at Dumbar School last Monday evening. Mrs. Gregoria Frazier-Goins is temporary local secretary. The permanent national organization will be formed at Chicago in July. *** The annual musicale by pupils of Miss Eva Virginia Johnson, at John Wesley Church; and Miss Marietta Harvey, at Second Baptist Church, were held recently; also Prof. R. J. Daniels', at Zion, Baptist Church. Mr. Dorsey in Violin Recital Mr. Dorsey in Violin Recital. Those who heard R. D. Carlton Dorsey's violin recital will not forget the pleasure derived from a difficult but pleasing program. His performance was masterful, inspiring—shows results of studying and a fine balance of tonal shading, with a keen sense of rhythm. Mr. Dorsey is director of the Dorsey Violin School. Miss Amy E. Dorsey, soprano, a sister of the violinist, sang the "Aria" ("Acis and Galathea"). "As When the Dove," Handel. She has a voice endowed by nature, enhanced by training and a pleasing, forceful personality. As an encore, she sang, "If No One Ever Marries Me." Miss Dorsey has studied the supervisor's course of public school music, at Cornell University, and is an organist and pianist, at present a pupil of Alfred Pennington, director of the Scranton Conservatory of Music, Scranton, Pa. Otto Bohanan, basso, was at his best in "The Vision Fugitive" of Massenet, responding with an encore, "The Horn Flegier." He has a big voice, sweet with musicianship behind it. You will hear more of Mr. Bohanan in the near future. Federation of Choirs-Musicians Program at John Wesley Church, on July 13.

Roosevelt struck the right note in his speech at Harvard, as to the way to handle the anarchists, irrespective of the label they may happen to wear. Said he: "I regard Bolshevists, red flag Socialists and J. W. W.'s as simple criminals, and think that the same methods should be used in dealing with them, as you cannot reason with them academically." Sound doctrine, and well put. One doesn't argue the question with a murderer seized redhanded, nor with the man caught setting fire to a dwelling house. If he resists, the police may kill him on the spot. Otherwise, after an orderly trial, the State executes him, or shuts him away where he can do no more harm. There is no room for academic discussions. When "Reds" act en masse, to the extent of a riot, there is but one right treatment, and that is superior force. The Waterbury police had the right idea in using machine guns and the fire hose. No real riot has ever been stopped by argument, or half-way measures. Here in New York in the days of the draft riots of 1863 there was no end until the troops turned their guns on the mob. We learned the lesson then and it has not been forgotten. We must not forget it. Orderly process of law until that is insufficient then; force, also lawful, to the full extent that may be needed. There is no other way.—New York Evening Sun, June 24, 1919. Note what the Evening Sun has to say about Socialists and Socialism. Note what young Roosevelt has to say. The Sun is right. Young Roosevelt is right. Mary White Ovington is a Socialist. She is chairman of the execu- LATE PROESSOR A. MOLYNEAUX HEWLETT, OF HARVARD, FIFTY YEARS AGO. The above cut appeared in the Boston Evening Transcript of June 18, in connection with an account of the fiftieth commencement anniversary of the Class of 1869, at Harvard. Prof. Hewlett was the first professor of physical training at Harvard, having been elected professor in 1855. He planned the gymnasium, and all of the apparatus was placed under his direction. The there fact of Harvard having selected him as professor, at a time when slavery was at its height, is conclusive proof that he was easily the foremost man in the country in his life. So proficient was he that his ability outweighed, all prejudice. The Southern students admired and respected him equally with the Northern students. It was he who supervised the training of the celebrated Harvard crew, with Rise as stroke, that defeated the Oxford, England, crew. Senator Lodge and Hon. Frank Hackett, an attorney of this city, who was Assistant Secretary of the Navy under Col. Roosvelt's administration, and hundreds of other prominent men now living were this pupils. He held the position until his death in 1871. He was held in such high esteem that the late Dr. A. P. Peabody, professor at Harvard, officiated at his funeral, which was attended by the faculty and student body. --- tive board of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. DuBois is a Socialist. He told me out of his own mouth that he was "not a Democrat or a Republican, but a Socialist." Instead of taking this woman and DuBois in their churches and giving them a collection "to stop lynching," colored people if they want to keep their standing as Americans, would save their name if they rode this pair out of town on a rail. New York, June 24, 1919. The Mt. Zion Baptist Church had a splendid success in their rally on Sunday, June 29. Services were held all days. At 11 a. m. the evangelist, Rev. J. L. Garfield, preached a soul-stirring sermon, under the auspices of Group I, Sister M. Iverson, captain. At 3 p. m. Dr. Fox, of Mt. Horel Baptist Church, delivered a wonderful sermon. He was accompanied by his congregation. At 8 p. m. Rev. Boone, from Ebenezer M. E. Church, preached to Group S, Sister Sarah Thompson, captain. The collection was then called for, and the above-named groups, together with Capt. Anna Brooks, of A; Pearl Getts, of G; Mary Howard, of H; Hattie Jones, of J; Chas. Connelly, of K; Hattie Thontly, of T; and Victoria Smith, of V, responded, with their many friends. A total of $756.29 was raised. This historical church, rich in reminiscences of the past, with many modious structure was destroyed by trials and vicissitudes since her comstorm May 29, 1896, had succeeded in paying for a very beautiful site, located at the corner of Thirteenth and C streets northeast, and will erect a new building in the near future. Rev. W. T. Downes, D. D., the pastor, assisted by his official board, is doing splendid work in that vicinity for the spiritual uplift. Trustees' rally will be on the first Sunday. Communion will be held at 3 p. m. on the second Sunday. "Come and see." COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES: An enthusiastic audience, greeted Miss Bruce and her graduates on Wednesday last, June 25th. The commencement exercises of the Deanwood School were held Wednesday, June 25th. After an address by Mr. J. Walker, diplomas were awarded to the successful pupils and an exacting program of musical numbers presented by the pupils. The pupils sang as an opening, "Sing for the World Rejoices." Miss Rosa Wells recited "The Hills of Tomorrow"; Mildred Matthews; "The Tapestry Weavers"; Emma Bagby, "Habits." A few of the parents gave encouraging remarks to the graduates. Miss Bruce was surprisingly presented with a gold pin by the graduates. The graduates were Misses Rosa Leona Wells. Mildred Beatrice Matthews, Mabel Alice Mason, Alice Mabel Mason, Alice Elizabeth Hutchinson, Emma Etta Bagby, and Masters William Alexander Doctor, William Edmonds, Gartrell Crew, Ogden Groomes and Sumner Lazenberry. --- DR.

I saw the effects of the work at the graduating exercises of the Dunbar High School last Friday night. Those who did the applauding were given tickets for that purpose. As it was, the applause was very weak. There were about a hundred in the gallery, and the applause was given for effect, but it didn't work. Dr. John R. Francis, Jr., is some dentist, and don't you forget it. He can make a bridge without posts and take stumps and walk across a person's mouth as easily as he can take the nerve out of your jawbones. Now, a dentist who can take an old man's mouth and make him look ten years younger is some dentist. Dr. Childs can testify to that. I have been wondering where Dr. Childs stood on the school question. Yes, if he were on the Board of Education he would be in the Assistant Superintendent's office advising him how to get rid of the supervisor of the elementary schools. You must give it to him, Dr. Childs, like Richard R. Horner, was always on the job. Nothing passed his eagle eyes. Speaking about Mrs. Rhodes. She is one of the most-sensible members of the Board of Education. Mrs. Rhodes is from Missouri. She must see a thing before she is convinced. If I could make her see the other side of the school question there would be something doing. There are to be some changes in the Board of Education. There is no fight between the present president and the former president of the Board of Education. The presidency may be settled before my letter is published. Have you seen that thousand dollar diamond Vincent Thomas has on his finger? Vincent says that the girl who has charm enough to win his affections has power enough to take that stone off of his finger. There is a Mass in sight. He may thing that no one knows it, but the Sage knows a thing or two. You would like to know what I mean by the Mass. Vincent knows and I know, and that settles it. My good friend doesn't talk much. He is all smiles these days. The Mid-City Theatre on Seventh street and the S. H. Dudley Theatre on You street are doing some business. The latest sensation is S. H. Dudley in the movies. You know, Dudley is some genius. He is a live producer. If he is short of acts, he is one producer that can make them. * * * Just what A. J. Thomas has up his sleeve I would like to know. Andrew is no talker, but he thinks a lot. Don't you know that Andrew J. Thomas should be given a substantial testimonial. While it is true the people have given value received, he deserves more than that. He has successfully conducted the Howard Theatre and given to the people a playhouse that is a monument to the people in this city. I suppose you know of the new organization. It is known as the Afro-American Anthropological Society, of which Charlotte E. Hunter, Thomas H. R. Clark and Fernand D. Lee are the incorporators. I wonder if this is an offspring of the Moens organization, of which Tom Clark was a member and the attorney to incorporate, but which never materialized? Tom testified that he was employed to incorporate it. The Bee would suggest to the Police Department to institute an investigation to find out what races this society will investigate and its object. This war has caused the organization of all kinds of institutions and societies. Ben Gaskins and a few other local politicians have begun to put eggs in the field to be hatched. Ben says that he intends to hatch these eggs himself, and if one springs up that looks like Williston he means to displace with something new. Bob Miller says that he has acquitted enough Shorty dispensers to clean up the city. He is in this next fight to win. There are some white Republicans who claim that they will muster enough white votes to elect a "lily-white" ticket. There will be several Richmonds in the field next year. Bradshaw declares that there is not enough money in the Riggs Bank to defeat him. There is to be an anti- "lily-white" Republican Club organized. W. Calvin says that he intends to publish a daily. I understand that Attorney L. M. King is to be one of the largest stockholders in the new 1 daily. L. Melendez is a level-headed individual and a man who knows what he is doing. *** I want to know what the lawyers in the Parents' League have done. Will they submit their report to the people and let them know what has been accomplished?. Dr. Curtis has not been able, with his x-ray apparatus to discover the causes and effects. GEN. HENRY FORREST. A Race. Benefactor and a Man of Wonder—A Man Who Believes in Racial Uplift—Supports More Race Papers Than Any Other Colored American in the United States. The Bee takes pride in commending the patriotism and loyalty of Gen. Henry Forrest, no doubt the best known travel and race advocate among the colored people. There is no man more deserving of special mention in these columns than Gen. Forrest — as an Odd Fellow, Elk and member of many other organizations in which General Forrest stands at the topmost rung of the ladder. He is not only a race benefactor, but he leads all other race papers and circulating them where representatives in supporting race he believes they will do the most good and be appreciated. Whenever he can help a fallen comrade or worthy citizen or enterprise this national race traveler is never weighed in the balance and found wanting. The Bee characterizes him as a man of wonder. The Odd Fellows' Journal, a national organ of that great organization, in its issue of June 5th, has this to say of him: "Through inadvertence reference to the presence of Gen. Henry Forrest, of Washington, New York and Jersey City, at the banquet of Hamilton Lodge No. 710, New York City, at THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH BEAUTY CULTURE SCHOOL AND HAIR EMPORIUM We carry a full line of Ladies' Wigs and Half-Wigs, Wigs for Men, and Toupees, Braids, Bangs, and Switches. OUR NEW HOME PENDLETON AVE. ST. PERDINAND AVE. the Lybia Club, May 2nd, was omitted, thus leaving out an important item of that function as chronicled in the Journal of May 15th. "Although General Forrest's membership is with Hamilton Lodge, he was notwithstanding an honor guest of the evening, and made it a point to be in New York for the occasion. General Forrest was very much in evidence. He is the one conspicuous figure at all functions where he is present. On this occasion he was the most enthusiastic one present, and made a characteristic speech, which he closed by saying that 'if Hamilton Lodge were to give another banquet tonight he would be present; if he had to hire a special train to bring him from Washington.' And everyone who knows this stalwart Odd Fellow and prince of the banquet table knows he meant what he said. "There are few men in the order who can match the genial General Forrest as an enthusiast and devotee, and it detracts from the brilliancy of any function to omit mention of his presence; hence this notation. The General is fully appreciative of the failings of newspaper reporters and editors, as well as he is alert to the usual amenities among gentlemen, and, of course, is too modest to impute motives or to seek notoriety; so this advertence to the event comes as a perfection to the record and a surprise to him. The writer is glad of the discovery in season to do the amende honorable. May the General live long to inspire us with his genial qualities and his unapproachable good fellowship."

NONE NORTH 7154 The Beauty Parlor Manicuring Hair Dressing ```markdown ``` It must appear natural to every thinking mind that roots, herbs and plants are the proper means of rehabilitating the body with health and strength when lost through natural or unnatural means. It is the very foundation of the "Healing Art Divine." In the language of Holy Writ, "The Lord has created medicine out of the earth, and he that is wise will not abhor them." (Ecclesiasticus 38:4.) "Yeah, happy he that can the knowledge gain, To know the Eternal God made naught in vain." The use of herbs and roots for the making of medicine is no doubt coincident with the human race; it first became very popular with the Egyptians. The priests and preachers of the earlier nations were the practitioners of the Healing Art. The Egyptians, the Assyrians, Ethiopians and the Jews were in the habit of using special prayers along with their herb remedies, but the efficiency in curing diseases was mainly due to their wonderful knowledge of the medicinal virtues of many of the vegetable products of Nature. They seemed to look up as high as the stars to know the reason of the influences and actions of the herbs and roots in the various affections of the human race. From the earliest times to the present day wise people have relieved suffering humanity from all forms of disease by herbs and plants and their helpful juices. My grandfather was a wonderful Herb Doctor. He knew the wonderful use of everything that grows for the curing if disease and prolonging life and the building up of the body. He performed most wonderful cures and lived to a very old age. In our family the knowledge is handed down from father to son. My boys take a great interest in the wonders of herbology, not only because they see every day the wonderful help the Herbal Healing Method renders people, but also because it is the most interesting and fascinating science in the world. Some years ago I was traveling the country over, looking for a certain secret, and in 1902 I went to Mexico: there from the old Indians I have learned many medicinal secrets. The Indians of the forests are never at a loss to know which plant is best, nor the time it should be gathered, to cure them of disease. They know how to treat their complaints of every nature with a skill that far surpasses that of many learned doctors of big medical schools, with all their science, and the medical teachings of physicians for upward of four thousand years. The Indian is untutored; the knowledge is handed down from generation to generation, from tribe to tribe, and their experience and knowledge of the herbal world is something wonderful.

You are a JUPITER MARS VIRGULA EARTH SUN DEMOC GINEPTRIES GATES URARUS deep, rather than a superficial nature, yet none can be more lively, not to say clownish, than you when you want to be. Most of the time you have the "brake on," so to say, on your nature; but when these brakes are taken off you can make things fly. You should make a good historian, as you have a love of delving into the obscure records of the past. You have a distinct literary talent, and if you took to writing you would doubtless have a clear and forceful style. At the same time you are artistic, and somewhat musical, and this often surprises your friends, who never dreamed that these ideals and interests were in you. As a woman you are a perfect up-to-date woman; your house is always in order, and everything is "spick and span" which is under your immediate control. You are also very careful about your personal appearance and dress, and you dislike anything approaching the "sloppy" style. Live up to your highest ideals, even through the severest trials and adversities, and you will not regret it. July 12th--You are a natural student, a deep thinker, original and quiet. You have yourself well in hand. You have a good voice and are naturally pursuasive. For this, if for no other reason, I would suggest you to take up the study and practice of law. You have a good head for business, and will doubtless succeed in that direction and make a great deal of money before you leave to enter "pastures new." You love excitement, and are always on the lookout for something which will give you a new sensation or a new "thrill." You are original and would make a splendid inventor. Be careful, however, if you enter this field, that you do not fall into the hands of scheming men, who will steal your ideas and leave you "high and dry" without a cent. You are fond of animals, and they are fond of you. You are a home lover, and nothing pleases you more than settling down in a cozy corner with a book, and someone near you, of whom you are very fond. You have the traces of character that the famous French scientist, Comete de Gasperin, had. You have a great future, and you should cultivate more religious strength and faith, and all will be well. *** To all those who have written from time to time requesting a personal detailed complete life reading, I will say, that I am too busy at the store to do so; but I will be glad to extend my help and service to all who will call at my office in Baltimore Tuesdays and Wednesdays. If you have followed the readings in The Bee, as thousands have; if you are anxious to improve your life by the science of the stars, which guide you aright; if you want to be successful, happy, and make the most of your life and help others on to the same road—I extend you my cordial invitation for a detailed reading, which can only be given in person at my home, 909 North Fremont avenue, Baltimore, Md., between Mosher and Lafayette streets.

The world wars, ideas, policies and ambitions, and men and men in their views—are striving to prescribe their, to hasten reconstruction, and to usher in the it to be unexpected that the colored race, environments and conditions, and always influence Wars follow the conflict of ideas, policies and ambitions, and conflict of ideas, policies and ambitions follow wars. The world war has left a trail of conflicting ideas, policies and ambitions, and men and parties—doubtless conscientious in their views—are striving to prescribe their respective remedial measures to hasten reconstruction, and to usher in the hoped-for millennium. It was not to be unexpected that the colored race, elbultive because of previous environments and conditions, and always influenced and swayed, as are the whites, by the pronunciamentoes of this and that faction, and this and that leader—each and every one, perhaps, sincere in the belief that each possesses the real nostrum to cure all existing ills, and a preventive for all future ills—should be so affected by this world war as to also suffer from a conflict of ideas and policies. There being no one, single, outstanding leader, as was true at the time the late Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington swayed and ruled other men, some partisans of this or that opposing faction fell to struggling to have the race adopt their views—subscribe to their policies. This war turned an overwhelming colored conservative majority into an unquestioned radical majority. Around Emmett J. Scott flocked many erstwhile conservatives and radicals. Many radicals, for reasons sufficient to them, became alienated from Dr. DuBois, the one-time chief oracle of radicals. Principal Moton, assuming, perhaps, that the late Booker T. Washington bequeathed to him, as a legacy, the principalship of Tuskegee, the mantle of leadership, and Washington's retinue of followers as well, made a futile plea for support and standing—a right every citizen possesses. We "panned" Principal Moton's advocated policy of servility on the part of our returning black heroes from France to a fare-the-well, and felt justified in so doing. Dr. DuBois, perhaps without malice aforethought, struck a hornet's nest, and Dr. Scott's hornets swarmed out and over the scholarly head of The Crisis' editor unabashed. We have all had our turn at the bat—hitting out grounders, Texas leaguers, and supposedly home-run flies. Each has had his say—each labored under the belief he was right; each ought now to have gotten out of his system the bile of contention and the conflict of ideas a disturbing war but naturally germinated. And perhaps we all feel better that we have had our say. There is a tremendous problem ahead that must be solved, if the race, as a people, is to enjoy the rights our boys fought and died in France to secure. The practice game is over, and the real contest is scheduled—for the "zero hour"—and every member of the race must now begin perfect team work to be ready to go over the top, as one, to secure democracy here in America. We feel certain we demolished and consigned to the scrap heap Mr. Moton's servial advice to our returning splendid soldiers, and are satisfied. Mr. Moton, because he was sustained by a few partisans who cannot feel as we do, and as our returning colored heroes must feel, perhaps rests under the belief he was right, and is therefore satisfied. Dr. DuBois, who, without rhyme or reason, provoked Dr. Scott to the hottest retort ever couched in polite English, perhaps, believes he was justified, and is satisfied. Dr. Scott, usually modest, and never desirous of engaging in controversy, thinks, and many friends acquiesce, that he, like the famed knight Ivanhoe, completely unhorsed the Gilbar of The Crisis, and is eminently satisfied. It is not now a question as to "who struck Billy Patterson?" but who, and how many, are ready, and fit, to fight the battle of the race in perfect harmony? Let's forget yesterday, with its conflict of ideas, policies and controversies, and gird up our armor for the big battle of tomorrow—the battle which, peacefully fought, must decide our future. DEANWOOD, D. C. Thursday evening, June 27, after a splendid sermon by Rev. B. P. Jackson, a handsome suit of clerical clothes was presented to the pastor of the Zion Baptist Church. The presentation address was delivered by the Rev. Logan Johnson, D. D., of the Contees A. M. E. Z. Church, whose talk was full of fervency and showed a knowledge of the work and worth of the pastor, Rev. E. Thomas Broadus, to this church. He spoke of his friendship and his fellowship, and the conservative and broadness of mind of the pastor, and his struggles upward for the Master. This suit was the work of the Pastors' Aid Club, which has as president Mrs. Emma Johnson, treasurer, Miss Mrs. Emma Johnson, secretary Miss Florence F. Lee, and treasurer Mrs. Alice Shears. This church is now practically out of debt and has been remodeled three times during the seven years of Rev. Broadus' pastorate, at a cost of over $3,000, and is now a unique structure and a credit to any people, with a high order of service. It is the strangers' home and a church of welcome, where one can enjoy their religion without formality or criticism.

Baltimore, Md., June 30.—Those who are not in this city are missing some fun. It seems like a day of festivities, instead of a funeral of John Barleycorn. I have just alight- ed from an electric car and as I look to my right I see two of the leading wholesale liquor firms packed with men and women of all shades and all grades. I merely looked and wished I could run past Major Pullman's sleuths. Well, don't you think that many didn't take a chance. Automobiles were being loaded with wet goods, to be conveyed somewhere. I overheard a Washingtonian standing near the curb say: "I propose to risk it this day." In the morning certain goods were selling at two per, and at noon they took a rise to three per. I was thoroughly convinced that I could not run through the law's net, no matter how badly I needed certain wet goods for medical purposes. I decided that I would take no chances. I saw before me thousands of eyes speaking memorial tones—"Old Calvin caught at last!" You can just bet I boarded a car and went to 509 Central avenue and tasted some real beer. I was convinced that—or rather I thought—I would have my last taste of real beer. The usual "bootleg brigade" was not in evidence. It could not be seen anywhere in the Monumental City. It was late at night before I left the city of monuments, and I tell you what it took to make the departure of old John, Barleycorn memorable they have it here. Good-night. C. CLASS OF '17 OF D. H.

The District of Columbia Branch, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, will hold its regular monthly session next Wednesday evening, at 8:30 p. m., at the Twelfth Street Branch Y. M. C. A. All members and friends are urged to be present. A HIGH DAY AT HILL TOP. Sunday, June 29, there was an all-day meeting at the Zion Baptist Church. At 11 o'clock Rev. George White, of Mount Jezreel, Washington, D. C., preached an able sermon. Dinner was served at 7:30 to a large crowd, as the gathering resembled a camp meeting. About twenty-five of the members of Rev. Broadus' Washington church, including three deacons, motored down to Hill Top. At 3 o'clock Rev. N. T. Moore, of the Peace Baptist-Church, Washington, delivered one of the most eloquent installation sermons that has been heard here, from the words, "The lamb standing on Mount Zion." It was full of logic and profound thought and resplendent in applications. Rev. Moore has been a lifelong friend of the pastor, lately called to this church. Rev. R. B. Ward, D. D., the honored pastor of the Pleasant Grove and the Oak Grove Baptist Churches, was master of ceremonies, while the Rev. C. R. Alexander, of the Mount Hope Baptist, and the Rev. Walter Dorsey, of the Emery and Pisgah M. E. Churches, delivered welcome addresses for the respective denominations. Addresses were delivered by the deacons, led by Deacon George Warren. Deacon Charles Ross delivered an address on the call of Rev. Broadus. He was at his best, although he was a very busy man all day, looking after the comfort of the visitors. Mrs. Minnie Carroll delivered the address on the part of the Christian Community. It was perfect. She was also chairman of the dinner, and no one was allowed to go away hungry. Mrs. L. J. Broadus accompanied her husband and was lovingly entertained by the chairman, Deacon and Mrs. Emily Marshall. Mrs. Josephine Burger was our special guest. Deacon W. H. White and Rev. Moore were the guests of Deacon Ross. Rev. Broadus serves this church every third Sunday. It has a splendid set of officers and members—prosperous farmers, with good homes. Mrs. F. Smith Thomas presided at the organ. Bro. John Brooks welcomed the pastor to the homes, and the pastor made a few closing remarks. Everyone, especially those from Washington; said it was a high feast day for both soul and body. Mrs. M. Carroll, clerk; Rev. E. Thomas Broadus, minister. PROF. DANIELS RECITAL.

HAMILTON 1223 Twelfth Street Northwest Bust Developed If any lady was asked the question, "Would you like to be beautiful?" the answer would be "Yes." But any woman to be beautiful must possess a well-developed bust. How many times has this question been asked by women and growing girls, "What can I do to develop the bust? There are hundreds of women who were deficient in this respect, but who have been able to attain perfect developed bust by employing certain means to assist nature in building up the bust to its proper proportion. The remedy which is universally used and has established a wide reputation for this purpose is B-D MASSAGE CREAM (B-D means bust developer). This cream is readily absorbed by the tissues, rubs in dry and builds up the parts to their proportions. It is scientifically compounded for developing the bust. It can also be used to build up the neck, arms and shoulders. If you want a plump, full, beautiful bust, of real flesh, why begin the use of B-D MASSAGE CREAM at once; don't wait; the sooner the better. You will be surprised at the result obtained from use of the first jar of cream. Price $1.00 single jar. BEAUTY HINTS—Consult our BEAUTY DEPARTMENT.

The election methods, the practices employed to dominate elections, of the Southern Democratic party during the regime of control by the black belt frauds condition, is a subject of particular interest. The State of Alabama was so gerrymandered that two or three black belt counties would be thrown in each district, so that the colored males of voting age could be availed of to supply the needed Democratic returns. Under this regime the representation in Democratic State conventions and in the legislature of the State included the entire colored population in the basis of representation in order that the black belt machine could dominate the affairs of the party. Illustrative of the workings of the Democratic party machinery, here is given a copy of a letter: Hatchechubbie, Nov. 8, 1892. Mr. J. V. Smith, Scale, Ala. We are going to be snowed under here today. Our only hope is to be able to throw out the box. Write me by this p. m. mail the most complete way to do it. Would too many ballots in the box do it, or which is best? Hatchechubbie was a white precinct in the black belt county of Russell, and the person to whom this message was addressed dropped the letter on the floor of the lobby of a hotel in Montgomery some time afterward. It was finally handed to the writer of this work on Southern conditions. Mr. Smith was then a candidate for the office of Solicitor of his district and at that time the Alabama legislature elected the Solicitors. He was selected. Registration lists were padded in the black belt with names of persons living and dead. Reversing the count, throwing out boxes that were not favorable to the Democracy, all sorts of tactics were employed wherever and whenever convenient. In the State of Arkansas, at that time, the holding of elections was entirely in the hands of the Governor, the Secretary of State and the Attorney General. They appointed three election commissioners for each county. The county commissioners appointed the election managers or judges for each precinct. The law provided that the election managers shall be of different political parties, provided suitable persons could be found. This was construed to mean by the Arkansas Democracy that competent persons were men who would facilitate the manipulation of the count or who were capable of becoming so drunk that they could not know what was going on. During the Kolb campaign in Alabama, Probate, Judge Coffee, of Lowndes County, in a campaign document in the behalf of the Democratic party, said: "If it is necessary in the future for Lowndes County to cost 4,995 votes against the candidate who is an enemy to the party, she will do so if my pulse beats." In the contest in Congress of Goodwyn vs. Cobb, it was shown that Lowndes County kept its word, for 3,036 votes were counted for Cobb, the Democratic candidate, and 189 were given to Goodwyn, the fusion candidate, Goodwyn was seated in 1897. The evidence placed before Congress showed that not more than 1,000 votes were cast in Lowndes County for both candidates for Congress. Goodwyn carried the white counties of the district by majorities ranging from 250 to 800. What a pity that Henry Ford, now joining in with the South in the Saddle Democracy for world democracy and clamoring against alleged election methods in Michigan on the part of Republicans, could not find it convenient to take a look at the Southern end of the party of world democracy for everywhere else except in the Southern States? As I understand it, the contention of the Ford Democracy in Michigan is that his opponent spent large sums of money in newspaper publicity. It appears that this publicity was done in the interest of Americanism, as well as for the advancement of the cause of the Republican party, but the hour is here when Republicanism and Americanism mean the same thing, while funds spent for one cause means both. The sort of irregularities that obtain in the South go to the very bottom of things that overthrow all ballot rights. It is denial of the constitutional right to have voice in government. Ford and his followers at least enjoy a republican form of government in Michigan. This is not true of the people in the Wilson Democratic States of the South. Ford's flivver patriotism in behalf of honest government would find a fertile field for activity in the South working among his Southern Democratic brethren. Col. J. M. Whitehead, Greenville, Ala., was an ex-Confederate soldier, and, at the time of making the following statement, was an editor: "I was an independent candidate for Congress in this district. At Rose Hill, Covington County, I was set upon by the tools of the Democracy. I had an arm broken, a shoulder dislocated and was left for dead on the ground. I went to Unim Springs, on another occasion, to make a speech. As I left the town that night I was honored with a shower of eggs as I had gotten on the train." This was the world democracy ideal of the Southern Democracy and its conception of free speech. Colonel Whitehead was an old man. We have yet to learn of a rotten egg Republicanism in Michigan. The informed people of the North know that the Southern Democracy has as its corner-stone the denial of free speech. Denunciation, villification, persecution, all the imaginable methods of repression, have been resorted to by the Southern Democracy to foster the domination of the oligarchy. All opponents of its methods are asked: "Do you want your daughter to marry a nigger?" The white sons of some of those asking this are half brother's to colored sons of the same father. DR. EVANS IN NEW YORK. Editor of The Bc: To keep promises, I briefly tell of the advance dental course we are pursuing at Columbia University this season. The university is situated upon a high plain of land, consisting of about forty acres, extending from Broadway and Amsterdam avenue and from 114th to 120th streets west. If all of its buildings in the different parts of the city were situated on the same plot of ground, the university would cover more than 75 acres. The college work of all the departments is carried on at the university proper. Special advance and research work are conducted at its different buildings in different parts of the city. Part of the advance course in dentistry is conducted and taught at 35 and 37 West 39th street, and the oral and dental surgery at the Vanderbilt Clinic Building, situated at 59th street and Tenth avenue west. There is no regular college for students as yet, but a building will be erected next year for such work near the Vanderbilt Clinic Building. The course will cover five years; two years of medicine and three years of dentistry strictly. Two years of college work will be the literary basis for matriculation. Our Present Course. This series began May 19, 1919, and consisted of root canal technique, dental radiography, dental ceramics, cast gold, inlays, crown and bridge work, full and partial dentures, exodontia and peridontia, and everything else you can "catch on the side." Only a limited number will be permitted to enter a class to avoid overcrowding for effective work, so he who waits until just a month or two before the school opens to make application may hear the unwelcome words, "too late." Your application is made and conducted just as the civil service people handle you, except your money must accompany your application before they will go to the trouble of tracing up your literary and otherwise record, etc.; after all you may receive a pencil blue mark and the roll you have sent up; or, if your record—present and past—is O. K., you will receive a glad hand. Only practitioners and teachers of dentistry are admitted; that is, those who devote their whole time to dental work, "Sundowns" are not permitted under any circumstances; they hold that such persons cannot give their best efforts to the community, nor can they uphold the standard of the profession. Men and women are here from everywhere—the good, the better, the best. That is, they were "best" at their homes, but when they took their seats at the feet of these real giants of dentistry they were glad to be numbered among the "good." Our work is conducted in sections from 10 a.m. to 1 p. m. to 5, 5 to 7 p. m. No time to return home after reporting at 9:30 or 10 a.m. It's an all-day drill. Everybody stands around his toes. No time to settle back on his heels. The work is hard, but no earnest student has time to thing of hardness. It is also very enjoyable, for a "brotherly" feeling spreads itself over everyone's face; there is quite a difference when all must "pass under the yoke." To our minds (the classes) the "giant" teachers are Dr. George A. Thompson of Chicago, Dr. H. W. Gillett of New York, Dr. F. H. Orton of Minnesota, Dr. F. A. Peeso of New York, Dr. Scherer of New Jersey, Dr. W. A. Griffin of Michigan, Dr. N. B. Nesbett of Massachusetts, Dr. H. S. Dunning of New York, Dr. M. I. Schamburge of New York, and Dr. J. C. McCall of Buffalo, N. Y. The controlling power of all this crushing brain force for the accomplishment of the greatest good for all concerned is delegated to Dr. Albert H. Stevensson, an unassuming young man who reads your very soul with one sweep of his eyes. He leaves nothing undone that wilf make your stay pleasant and the work enjoyable. The clinical operations at the Vanderbilt Building seem to stir the classes to a greater "ferocious abnormality" than all the other work combined. As a class we visited, at different, times, many of the teachers' private offices. We could just look at each other and say "Oh, depth of mercy, can it bel." It is the consensus of opinion of the classes that the money spent in this course is but a trifle when compared to the inestimable benefits received. There were friendly groups formed among all the classes, and those of us who could typewrite would transcribe our notes at nights and connote next morning before class call. My first group was of the Salt Lake City men. No finer set lives. My second group was of the Denver, Col., men. They are great. My third group was of the Atlanta, Ga., men. Who would believe it! It is true, and one of them a major, too. They were O. K. My real "pal" is just from Greece. He is brainy. When I don't understand him, I just nod, motion and strike in the air. When the closing day comes we shall lock hands, form a great circle, and bid each other a happy good-bye. E. G. Evans. EDITOR TROTTER IN FRANCE. The American Editor Defends His People—He Appeals to the Peace Conference — The Only Colored American to Be Heard in France—All Honor to the Great Editor. Paris, Wednesday, June 11 (Associated Press).—Wm. Trotter, of Boston, secretary of the National Equal Rights League, has presented every member of the Peace Conference a petition, from colored citizens of America, asking that a clause assuring all citizens "full liberty in the rights of democracy and protection of life without distinction based on race, color or previous conditions," be inserted in the covenant of the League of Nations. The above Associated Press dispatch speaks volumes. It vindicates the position of Mr. Trotter, who tried to have race delegates sent to the Peace Conference to agitate for race rights. He was opposed by other newspapers on the ground that such a move would be useless, as colored men would never get before the Peace Conference. It is a master stroke on the part of Mr. Trotter, because as far as can be learned no colored man (or white) ever presented the colored American's cause to the great statesmen of the world. Dr. Dubois, Ralph Taylor, Emmett J. Scott, R. R. Moton, Roscoe Simmons, all went to Paris and returned, but not one of them got in touch with the men who are making the world safe for democracy. It remained for Wm. Monroe Trotter, radical and agitator, uncompromising champion of absolute equality for the black man, whose organization was refused passports by the State Department, to go to Paris and show up the hypocrisy of America. How he ever reached Paris is a mystery—but he is there, and the world knows that one-tenth of the citizens of America do not receive one-tenth of that democracy President Wilson is demanding for the world. All honor to William Monroe Trot- Mr. Trotter was at one time a wealthy man. He spent that wealth fighting for the race. He had a beautiful and noble wife—she foresook her social position in Boston and gave her life helping him fight for the race. He is a poor man now and alone, all because of his zeal in behalf of colored America. He was arrested and cast in jail because he fought and opposed Dr. Booker T. Washington—not the educational theories of Washington, but the insidious teachings that urged the black man to forsake the ballot, to give up his manhood rights, to accept less than full Americanism, to "keep his place." Time, will prove Trotter right and Washington wrong. Trotter was ordered from the White House because he dared remind Presidient Wilson of his promise to deal square with the black man. And now he again proves his leadership by getting before the great men of the world, the greatest gathering in the history of the world, the appeal of colored Americans for "full liberty," for a real share in democracy and for absolute equality: How he got there, the dispatch does not say; what the Peace Conference will do is unknown, but the fact remains that they know that America's cant on democracy is hypocrisy! All honor to William Monroe Trotter! THE BAR Scientific instruction of a method, remove blemishes. Guarantees to bleach your face two shades lighter.

"Let us, while this war lasts, forget our special grievances and close ranks" was the chief note. It was a call to halt—to temporary halt in a demand for the adjustment of long-existing grievances. It was a call to sacrifice. "We make no ordinary sacrifice, but we make it gladly and willingly, with our eyes lifted to the hills." Conditions that we "halt" and "sacrifice" are just as weighty in 1919 as they were in 1918—even more so. Halt in breeding dissensions among ourselves. Halt in clutching at each other's throats. Sacrifice the last particle of inordinate desire or selfish ambition calculated to menace race solidarity in this the most critical period in our history since emancipation. Our warfare with the German Hun has ceased. A warfare with the American Hun is now our task. DuBois, Moton, Scott, Tyler, Pickens, et al., close ranks! C. S. Smith. Detroit, Mich..

Trusting souls—in the forms of devoted, husbands, brothers, sweet-hearts, friends, companions and citizens—are dazed at the facts brought out—at the realization that loved ones have betrayed the trust imposed in them. These women have given the cause of womanhood a great setback, and the critical and doubting man will view all women with great suspicion for many a day, and seldom trust. And to think that the good ones must suffer with the bad. To think that prominent and, apparently, respectable women would willingly and brazenly bare their naked bodies, their very souls, their all, before men, and thereby sell the honor and the virtue of their sex, is almost unbelievable. And one woman a dupe to betray others into the power of a viper with lies and a snakeish disregard! And why? Perhaps simply to secure the where-withal to buy a new dress. For, perhaps, a few paltry and filthy dollars this woman was ever ready to betray her friends, her race, womanhood. Every man and woman of the race who knows this woman should forever have only the greatest of contempt and loathing for such a creature, walking among decent people as a person of respectability. And it is to be supposed that she will go scott free, whereas a greater penalty should be hers than will be meted out to the man. For she was the cog around which his success revolved. Moens' deeds were simply white slavery in a new and hertofore undiscovered form, which it took his subtle brain to work out, working on the well-known susceptibility of the Negro brain to persuasion. All the other females who yielded to the importunities of this woman and to the desires of this man are a menace to this community, and to any community whose sweet air may eventually be so unfortunate as to be contaminated with the foulness of their immoral presence. Society—and when I say "society" I do not use it in the meaning that colored "social maniacs" do, namely the fostering of caste and color within the race, but rather as it relates to all decent, self-respecting people, regardless of color or attainments—should frown down on these sneaking women with a sternness and relentlessness that allows of no returning to favor. They should be branded "social traitors," and forever banished to the vampire-world. For they have truly lowered themselves to the same general plane as the lowest animals, and, as a consequence, should be treated as such. Many animals would hesitate to display their naked forms to one another. Yet we have within a race a human set, a class, a clique, who sell their very souls, their name, honor, race, home, pride, their all, to the serpent-like man, who, with oily words and filthy dollars, seeks and finds his prey—seeks to secure the youngest, fairest and best among us, and succeeds because the "social maniacs" deem it the greatest honor to feast and dine some white cur. And just because he is a white man and they would be as white as he. As if the very contact would make it so! Would these same women have bared themselves before black men? The answer comes, "No." Would this same woman have dug up Venuses for black men, even though they recked in gold? What shall your answer be? Once more the race is stabbed behind its back—for, though the white papers did not give out to the white world the revolting facts of this case, still there were plenty of white men in the court who are bound to spread the news among their people of the "easy nigger women," and the race must stand the gaff; once more our glorious womanhood—the kind our great ancestors used to know—receives a cut, the cut that strengthens the beliefs of lot of men—that few women can be trusted. The fallen women surely can offer no tenable explanation to prove their innocence, nor a sensible motive explaining their acquiescence, as they most certainly knew that the man simply craved their bodies, and that all other given reasons were rot, intended to help his cause along. They surely were not fools, knowing man as they do, and ought to have felt that, once he saw their naked forms, he'd want their bodies. And the "dupe woman" whom the evidence in securing others to fall from honor and self-respect, should have a life her. Now, is it right, is it safe, for any of these women to be left at large—to run around and scatter their seeds of immorality among the flower of our women? The editor of a colored paper in Mound Bayou, Miss., recently said in his paper that no race can rise higher than its women. And this is a lasting and positive truth. Women—noble women—are the glory of any race. Black women, seemingly, have not yet learned that fact. Men of the race may toil, and labor early and late to advance the race and to give it, too, a "place in the sun," but just as long as we find the women of the race making themselves common by selling themselves, body and soul, to white men as playthings, as long as one can walk down almost any side street at night and see them standing in the shadows conniving with white men, and at other times dodging here and there with them in the dark, as-long as they stand and slouch along the public streets in noisy debates with colored men of a like ilk, as long as they are noisy and boisterous and uncouth on street cars and in public places, and as long as they forget the old-time glory of their sex—with its modesty and refinement—then just so long will the horrid faces of hate, segregation, discrimination, Jim-crowism, and disfranchisement and non-appointments to public positions stare at us. Yes, Mr Chase, the work of advancement, ra- cial respect, etc., lies among our women. It is them who must be first made clean, made to lead clean, decent and moral lives, and, above all, to ward off all advances from white men, and refuse to connive with them. A white man knows that he can with impunity approach any colored woman, no matter how well dressed she may be or how respectable she may appear to be, and insult her with any question he desires, because the worst he gets from the woman is a proud toss of the head and a movement onward; whereas, she should call an officer and have him arrested, and if no officer is around, scream and draw the attention to the man, who, ten to one, would run, and others would hold him until an officer was found. Yet it seems they know our women won't complain on them—that they are safe. So, there you are. And this Moens affair only strengthens a statement accredited to a white army medical officer in a book he wrote—that a white man can get any colored woman he wants, as they feel it the greatest honor to deal with white men. How true such a statement is can only be left to individual conjecture. Yet it shows the average belief of the white man, and with what little respect he views the Negro woman. And such a pity that it is so, and such a pity that so many of our women are always willing to commit some overt act to strengthen their lack of respect and regard. Editor Chase, our women need attention. Not the good ones, of course, as there are many such, but when so much of badness among them is seen, who can tell the good from the bad? And, of course, the good ones are then blamed along with the bad. TO SUBSCRIBERS.

CONCERNING YOUR HAIR Invention of an Expert Chemist You probably have tried all sorts of remedies on your scalp without getting the desired results, until you have become discouraged and lost confidence in all hair remedies. Thousands of others, like yourself, finally turned to using-Seeby's Quinade, and have been so pleased with the result they would never again waste their time or money using anything else. Quinade is not an ordinary peanade; it is highly medicated and is a real scalp food. Quinade stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long, straight hair. It will make coarse, stubborn hair soft and silky, and easy to put up in the style desired. Quinade will positively allay itching of the scalp; and dandruff, which is the real cause of most hair and scalp troubles. To get best results from the use of Quinade, one should shampoo the scalp every two weeks with Seeby's Quonasoap, a soap made entirely of pure vegetable oils. Quinasoap lathers very freely and is a thorough cleanser. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequaled by any other shampoo. Insist on getting Seeby's' Quinade and Quinasoap, asking for them by their full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your druggist or dealer does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them from his wholesaler for you, or send us the price and we will mail them to you direct.
