Retirement of Teachers
IT IS REPORTED THAT PROF. H. P. MONTGOMERY, J. C. NALLE AND OTHERS ARE TO RETIRE
VOL. XL. NO. 42
Reti
IT IS REPORTED TO
H. P. MONTGOM
AND OTHERS
COLORED SCHOOLS.
There is nothing more diabolical than the request of the school administration to retire Prof. H. B. Montgomery, John C. Nalle and others. Both of these teachers are as popular with the teaching corps as any in the school system. Just why these two teachers should be asked to retire, and others, who are the pets of the school administration, have not been asked to retire, is a puzzle. The Senate committee has decided to investigate the colored schools from bottom to top. It is also a question why Dr. Lucy Moten is asked to retire, and it is reported one of the most disliked teachers has been booked to succeed her. Of course, the record of the teacher who is to succeed Dr. Moten will be thoroughly investigated. Why are teachers who have passed an examination for one thing been designated for another subject?
THE DAY NURSERY.
We have not raised the $25,000 for the reason that so many thousands have not sent in their contributions. The books are being kept open to give those an opportunity to give who have not contributed as they desired. On our last tag day we had very stormy weather, so we have been granted Saturday, April 17, for city-wide tag day. Sunday, April 18, will be tag day in all the churches. You can greatly help a very worthy cause by helping us dispose of tags.

DR. E. L. THURSTON.
Superintendent Popular With the Masses—Van Schaick Will Be Defeated—The People Want His Resignation as Well as Resignation of Some Other Members of the Board of Education.
The investigation by Congress of the public schools will bring out the entire corruption that exists in the public schools. It is quite evident that the people are in favor of the retention of Dr. E. L. Thurston and the removal of Dr. Van Schaick and his Board of Education. The investigation already shows that a change is needed in the public school system. The Moens case is the most disgraceful that ever existed in the public school system. At the meeting of the teachers last week, on which occasion. Dr. Thurston spoke, the reception accorded him was the greatest in the history of the public schools. For two minutes the applause and ovation given him was most touching.
This meeting demonstrated the fact that Dr. Thurston is held in high esteem by his teachers. He is not the man to hound them, demote them on the most flimsy pretext and remove them, without cause.
If Congress would abolish the present Board of Education and name the board itself, no doubt there would be a decent school system in this city.
WHAT DR. J. HAYDEN JOHNSON THINKS.
The Colored people are entitled to have suitable, capable and technically qualified representatives on all boards and commissions, and in all bodies dealing with public affairs. Where they have this right they should closely scrutinize the conduct and capacity of those selected to represent them, in order to see how far these representatives are worthy of the trust reposed in them.
In connection with the hearing before the Senate Committee on the District of Columbia on the nomination of John Van Schaick, Jr., to be a Commissioner of the District of Columbia, Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, a representative of the colored people on the Board of Education, appeared and gave testimony favorable to the confirmation of Dr. Van Schaick. This testimony was given on January 13, 1920, and extends from page 49 to page 56 of the printed hearings. In order to lead up in an orderly way to Dr. Johnson's testimony, and to give it its proper setting, it should be stated that the Rev. H. J. Callis had testified on the 12th that Dr. Van Schaick had "classified the Negro population of the District of Columbia, . . . in this fashion: One-third child, one-third savage, and the other third shell-game men" (p. 12 of the hearings); and that Mrs. F. S. Tanner said: "I have seen it above Dr. Van Schaick's own signature, where he says the Negro is one-third child, one-third savage and one-third shell-game man" (p. 15 of the hearings). Dr. Johnson appeared at the hearing with the evident purpose of discrediting the testimony of the Rev. Dr. Callis and Mrs. Tainer, and, after referring to Dr. Van Schaick's opprobious language, introduced the following letter, which the Doctor had written hi imfrom Cobbleskill, N. Y.; August 15, 1910
Dear Johnson: I have read the evidence, every line, every word. You were absolutely right. That outfit is one-third child, one-third savage, and one-third shell-game man. Be back about the lst.
Yours sincerely. Van Schaick. It will be noticed that in the letter to Dr. Johnson, Dr. Van Schaick did say without qualification, or reserva-
WASHINGTON, D.C. SATURDAY, MARCH 20, 1920
tion of any sort, "That outfit (meaning the Parents' League) is one-third child, one-third savage and one-third shell-game man"; although in the letter to Dr. Learned, which came into the hands of Mr. Peyton, Dr. Van Schaick is not quite so, sweeping and reckless in statement. He there says, "In the make-up of a lot of them there is about one-third child, one-third savage and one-third shell-game man" (p. 77 of the hearings). So that there are two statements by the limber-tongued Dr. Van Schaick, one embracing all the people in the Parents' League, and another embracing "a lot of them." In his testimony last week before the special committee investigating the public schools, he, in effect, takes it all back. Fickle, unstable, changing man!
Now, to return to Dr. Johnson. In his explanation of, or rather comment on, the letter, Dr. Johnson says: "I disagree with Dr. Van Schaick's proportion of one-third. I believe it was two-thirds instead of one-third—two-thirds child: . . . The 'shell-game men' referred to the trickery employed by the Parents' League" (p. 52 of the hearings). From the letter itself which Dr. Johnson put into the record, and from his explanation of the use of at least one term used in the letter, it would appear that he told, or wrote, to Dr. Van Schaick that the Parents' League was made up of the elements and in the proportion named. At any rate, in his testimony, he says that the Parents' League was composed of these elements, though he changed the proportions.
If anything was wanting to show Dr. Johnson's unfitness for membership on the Board of Education, his testimony above quoted furnishes it. Any man who could apply such hateful epithets to a large part of the community of which he himself is a trustee is not worthy to be given trusteeship over them. While Dr. Van Schaick, as above stated, has modified his views, or repudiated them altogether, Dr. Johnson is of the same opinion still as to a large proportion of his fellow citizens. He has taken back nothing. He has made no public statement modifying or changing in any respect his original expression of contempt for his neighbors.
We have quoted from the hearings, giving page, so that anyone who is interested may verify the references and quotations. We thus make it clear that we do not desire to misrepresent Dr. Johnson, but we do wish the public to see him in his true light, so that in the future he cannot escape the record he has made.
REV. A. C. GARNER
Grected by a Large Crowd Last Sunday at Plymouth Church.
Plymouth Congregational Church was filled to its limit last Sunday to witness a fine program arranged to celebrate the pastor's anniversary. The church was founded by Rev. Wnt. Peele, a native of Washington. Rev. S. N. Brown was its pastor for more than seven years. Rev. A. C. Gafner, the present pastor, has been with the church twenty-three years and has been active and successful. Both pastor and church have The Bee's congratulations.
DR. NORMAN HONORED.
Ministers' Conference of Philadelphia and Vicinity Pays Him a Splendid Tribute.
(From the Christian Review, Philadelphia, Pa.)
The Ministers' Conference of Philadelphia and vicinity met with the Shiloh Baptist Church, Rev. Dr. A. R. Robinson, pastor; Rev. Dr. I. N. Holly, president. This great body honored Dr. N. W. D. Norman from the Capital of the Nation in that they moved from the lecture room to the main auditorium to give Philadelphia a chance to spread their beautiful faces in electric fashion before one of the greatest preachers that ever lived.
The beautiful sun that gives rays over from the west added much to the room. P. was a meeting of the highest type and, let us say, the conference lived up to every wit of her standing.
We are satisfied that Dr. Norman was never borne away more lightly upon the wings of an audience than the one on this occasion. His subject matter was to the minister or pastor in his official capacity preparing his sermon and delivering the message of Jesus Christ in general. It is well known that Dr. Norman is one of the most profound, almost irresistible in personal, far reaching in thought, and for delivery almost in a class by himself. He in a minute of encyclopedia jaunt lowered himself in a plantation of records. His references with standard heads brought him up through the field of general resources and he began to pluck ivory from his corn tassels and diamonds from his wheat sheaf. He rang the artistic bell of his many years of study and baptized the audience with his accomplishments. Seemingly, no speaker of the age could have done more than the heart's effort of this eminent speaker did in pulling one of the best prepared audiences of its kind known anywhere. The conference of Philadelphia and vicinity is known for the members' classical and profound standing. Hence, we well know it takes not only culture, but undaunted courage, to face this conference.
Dr. Norman, closed his address in noon-day fashion, and seemingly the starry decked heaven and lowered down with a picture of golden letters as a heaven born answer to all who were present. President Holly seemed to have thought he was in paradise but after he came down from the upper room he found himself on Lombard street. No doubt, this was the greatest meeting from many points held in the history of the conference. Rev. Dr. W. F. Grahani spoke in thanks to Dr. Norman, followed by Rev. Dr. W. A. Harrod, Rev. Dr. A. C. Skinner and Father B. T. Moore of Wilmington. The day will be long in remembrance.
REV. W. H. DEAN'S SUCCESS.
He Beats the Record—The Work of an Honest. Man—His Eighth Year as Pastor—Many Gifts From His People in Appreciation of His Services—Carries $4,283 to Conference and Leaves $4,000 in Bank to the Credit of His Church.
Ebenczer A. M. E. Church, Fourth and D streets southeast, was packed and a crowd was turned away last Monday evening, when the pastor, Rev. W. H. Dean, preached his goodbye sermon, which closed his eighth year as pastor. Music was rendered by the senior choir, H. M. Perry, leader, and the quartette composed of Mrs. Mabel Foster, Ida Howard, Daniel Maher and Harold Matthews. The text for the evening was Joshua 24:27. A very high appreciation was shown of the valuable services of the pastor and his wife, Mrs. E. C. Dean. Presentations were made by Mrs. N. L. Proctor, Alice Lewis, Sadie Hackney and volunteers to the pastor. Good cloth suit and overcoat, from ushers and auxiliary, cuff buttons, Rebecca Gray, velour hat, Estelle Jackson, a purse from the ushers of the board. Jerry McGruder, president; friends, $51; one tailored suit to Mrs. Dean by volunteers; from Y. D. H. M. F., a purse, Nellie Hailstalk, president; from the parsonage committee, Maria Brown, president, a purse; to Ella C. Dean the Junior League gave a purse, also to E. C. Dean:
Rev. Dean will leave for conference today with $4,283 in cash for the benevolences; of this amount $3,454 is the centenary fund. He leaves in the treasury of the church $4,000.
DR. MADDEN IN ST. LOUIS.
He Writes to His Constituents—Did Not Present His Bill.
St. Louis, Mo., March 15, 1920.
Dr. Madden wishes to call the attention of the readers of The Bee that he has returned to his home office in St. Louis Mo., at 400 South Jefferson avenue, for the purpose of explaining to the people of St. Louis the character of his bill and his mission before the committee. One Bishop J. C. Campbell spread a lot of wildcat statements in St. Louis to the effect that Madden's bill was killed. Dr. Madden says that his bill is not killed, but Dr. Madden did say that Bishop Campbell is dead so far as the movement is concerned. "Do you get me?"
Dr. Madden says his bill has not been introduced to the House. He was only talking on the Mason resolution, and held his bill in the background to show the justification of the Mason resolution. Dr. Madden said that he would not have anything to say about Bishop Campbell, from the very fact that he would soon kill himself at the gait that he is going. Dr. Madden said that every knock was a boost for him, because right will stand for him, because right will stand when wrong has gone down. Dr. Madden said that this movement will live as long as the race lives. Dr. Madden will stay in St. Louis until about the 1st of May, and after the 1st of May he will make his speaking tour through the United States, and the people who are in doubt as to the movement just keep your eyes on The Bee. The next issue of The Bee will give you Dr. Madden's picture and his home office at St. Louis.
(Signed) Dr. M. M. Madden. (Dr. Madden while in the District, did not present his bill to Congress, but he argued, by request of Congressman Mason, his (Mason's) bill and not the Madden bill.)

WHITELAW HOTEL NOTES.
The spacious dining room of the Whitelaw Hotel was crowded to its doors and standing room was at a premium in the lounge at the mignight supper and concert staged by Mr. Ed D. Stello, the marvelous tenor, traveling with the Chu Chin Chow Company, on Friday night last. He was at his best, and the vast audience showed its appreciation time and again. Mr. Drury, the pianist, gave a short history of Mr. Stello and predicted a great future for this young singer.
Among the audience at reserved tables were several white fellow-players to show their appreciation for their fellow-actor.
The entire dining room was reserved a day in advance. Prominent among the guests were: Dr. and Mrs. Emmett J. Scott, Dr. A. M. Curtis, Lawyer Jas. A. Cobb, Mr.

RICHARD HIMSELF AGAIN.
The great revival at the Tenth Street Baptist Church, Tenth and R streets northwest, is still in progress. People from all over the city are flocking nightly to hear this great woman evangelist, Sister Isabelle Bundy.
Many people are being converted and backsliders reclaimed and are going to church.
Dr. Willbanks, world's evangelist and pastor, attended both services on Sunday and has been present each evening during the week, to the delight of the congregation and friends. While not preaching, his very presence is a stimulus to those that are actually engaged in the fight.
This meeting will continue for an indefinite period, while the evangelist and his wife may leave the city for the further recuperation of his health. On hearing of his much improved condition through the columns of The Bee, cities are vying with each other as to where the first evangelistic fight will take place when the evangelist is in fighting trim.

cause the Parents’ League opposed

Thurston's recommendation for his
removal, had he.made it, and yet he
said he is a good man. If he is a
good man, why would he have-accept-

that he had a high regard for Attor-
ney Peyton, but he (Payton) did not
keep faith with him in voting for the

Thurston do what others thought he
would have done, after his re-election,

THE TWENTIETH CENTURY
LAUNDRY .& CLEANING CO
Presents’ to the Citizens of Washing-
ton the Realization of a Dream of
Fifty Years—A. First-Class Steam
” Laundry and Wholesale Cleaning
Business Operated by Negro Cap-
ital and Labor. .
Le tee nag Ae eA RY
steam laundry capitalized at $50,000,
divided ,into. 5,000 shares at $10 each,
payabie at the rate of $12.50 per sliare,
{the $2.50 being for éxpenses and sur-
plus. “*
With a population of ‘about 450,000,
Ja third of Same: being colored, there
is no reason. why this should not
prove a gilt-edged itivestment. This
business will. be one of the first to
come into direct ‘competition with
several latge laundries operating ¢x-
élusively witly colored labor.” It will
practically command thé work of ten
thousarid colored householders and
expiects ‘one-tenth of the turnover
work from other laundries; thus ‘the
[average work’ from colored people
Inéing about 50 cents per week, a net
‘income of $150,000 per year can be
}counted. on. from that source, which,
[with the turnover from the other
Taundries, amounting to something
|like $75.00 per year, this: business
bids fair to pay from its beginning,
as it has been estimated that not more
thant $30,000 will be réquired to run
the business the first year." *
Another fact that should ‘make. this
lan attractive business is that the best
{laundry. workers in the city are col-
ored. ‘This concern promises to em-
ploy’ the best colored help obtainable
by paying the highest wages and sal-
aries. Not less than_ thirty. ‘young
people wil Ibe employed the first year.
‘The, president, Mr, Charles L. Fos-
Jeer, a former instructor in’ machinery
in one of our best industrial schools:
has made a splendii! success of the
cleaning’ and pressing: business, and
has, therefore, provided for a whole-
salé cleaning and pressing business
ii connection with the laundry, with
‘several branches about the city.
“Those connected with ‘this business
‘have freely “estimated that a fair
share ‘of this business by our concern
should net at least $20,000 per year.
“Thé incorporators are in touch with
ithe most expert laundry, workers in
the city‘and will adopt only the most
approved methods that ‘will, bear out
the name of the Twentieth Century

I have noticed for sometime the interest which you have taken in the National Training School of this city, and I wish to take this opportunity of thanking you in behalf of the community for your many efforts in connection with the building up of this institution.
It has grown from a small plant to an institution of influence and power, both in our own community and throughout the country at large. The work being done there by D. Shepard and his associates is worthy of the highest praise, and I feel that his continued efforts, combined with the valuable assistance, which you and the other friends of the institution have given it, will inevitably result in furnishing to our State and our country a body of well-trained and efficient negro workers.
I understand that you are now contemplating another trip in behalf of the school, and I merely write this letter for the purpose of wishing you all success and abundant results.

JUDGE STAFFORD'S CHARGE.
A Rioter Freed by a White Jury
One of the most remarkable charges to a jury by Mr. Justice Wendell Phillips Stafford was made in his court to a jury two weeks ago, after the jury had heard the testimony against a colored citizen who was charged with being in the late riot in this city and assaulting a white citizen. Mr. Justice Stafford, among other things, charged the jury not to consider the man's color or nationality. Colored men serve upon the jury and members of their race have been tried and convicted by them. It is incumbent upon you to deal by this defendant as the members of his race deal by defendants of their race. The white jury eliminated race prejudice and acquitted the colored man, because he was innocent, and the charge of the judge was a just one.
ANTIOCH BAPTIST CHURCH.
A Large Crowd Present Last Sunday. The Antioch Baptist Church, Massachusetts avenue between Second and Third streets northwest, was largely crowded Sunday evening (as well as the Sunday before), the occasion being special church services by Rev. Peter Ailer, pastor, and his active corps of workers. The members are doing quite well and are making an active canvass for a large church fund to enable them to begin work erecting a new church. An active canvass will be inaugurated this spring for funds. All contributions to this new church

It is a shame and a disgrace on the public school system that two of the most intellectual and competent teachers in the colored public schools are recommended to be retired in June. The Bee takes this opportunity to request that the Senate District Committee call for the name of every teacher who has been recommended for retirement, together with the pets retained or those who have been silent in their support of the administration of the colored schools. The Bee takes this opportunity to call the attention of the committee to the flagrant injustice towards the late Miss Jane M. Cropper, a teacher who was removed from the Deanwood School and the result of the star chamber investigation in that school. Prof. John C. Nallie and Ex-Superintendent of Schools Montgomery should not be retired on account of alleged old age, both of whom are more active than the head of the colored schools. Let the people go before the Senate Committee and testify to the great worth and ability of these two men in comparison to the pets who are to be retained.
The latest report is that the head of the colored Normal School is to be succeeded by a woman who regards herself too white to associate with her colored children.

It is hoped that the District Committee on the investigation of the public schools will put a stop to any changes being made, except that of the Board of Education, in the personnel of the teachers' corps. The Bee is informed that some of the best teachers in the colored schools have been requested to resign and be placed on the retired list. The Bee would suggest to the chairman, Mr. Sherman, that he call for a report of those colored teachers who have been asked to retire, and the reason for such a request, while others in the same class have not been touched. If it is on account of age, as it is alleged, why have the pets been retained, or those who have not opposed the administration of the colored schools? The member of the Board of Education who informed another member of the board that the colored people in this city are half shell game, etc., will be given an opportunity to explain himself when he is called on to testify before the Senate Committee.
COLORED TEACHERS.
It is a godsend that the Senate go thoroughly into the condition the most important features in the ored school at Deanwood, D. C., in a whitewash report in favor of dismissal of one of the best teachers RACE PREJUDICE DEFEATS MILITARY TRAINING.
It is a godsend that the Senate Committee on Investigation will go thoroughly into the conditions of the colored schools. One of the most important features in this investigation should be the colored school at Deanwood, D. C., where a select committee brought in a whitewash report in favor of certain guilty teachers and the dismissal of one of the best teachers in the corps.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today published a statement asserting that the opposition in the South to universal military training was due to prejudice against the colored soldier.
"The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People does not concern itself with universal military training as such," says the statement, "but in behalf of the colored people of the United States, objection must be made to the propaganda against colored soldiers by which it is hoped to discredit the measure."
Brigadier-General Sherburne and Secretary of War Baker have testified to the valor of Negro troops in France. Under the circumstances, the propaganda against colored soldiers must be characterized as for the most part deliberate and intentional falsification.
HOWARD UNIVERSITY.
Quarter of a Million Dollars Appropriated for Negro Medical Education.
At its meeting, held in New York City, Thursday, February 26th, the General Education Board, founded by John D. Rockefeller, appropriated $250,000 toward an endowment fund of at least $500,000 to be used by Howard University for medical education, "the income from the appropriation to be made available pending completion of the full amount." The Howard University Medical School is the only Class "A" medical institution for the training of Negro physicians, dentists and pharmacists in the country. Its students have free access for instruction to Freedmen's Hospital, supported by the government, which is the largest and most important hospital for Negroes in the world. Many of the most successful medically trained men of the Negro race have received their training here in Washington at the Howard University.

President Durkee's address represents the strongest expression recently delivered with reference to the Negro people and their relation to the present problems of readjustment and reconstruction. President Durkee put forth a program as to what the Negro people expect during the period of reconstruction which has received widespread indorsement in all parts of the country. Copies of the address will be sent to those who may make application for same.
ON ILLEGITIMACY
Legislation for the Protection of the Children Born Out of Wedlock.
The purpose of the conference recently held in Chicago and New York under the auspices of the Children's Bureau of the United States Department of Labor, in cooperation with the Intercity Conference on Illegitimacy, was to obtain full and free discussion leading to a formulation of principles and an agreement on standards which should govern legislation for the protection of children born out of wedlock.
The conference emphasized the rights and responsibilities of the child, the mother, the father, and the State, with general agreement that the welfare of the child is of paramount importance. It was pointed out that the machinery and methods employed for the welfare of children of illegitimate birth must be flexible, and that justice can be obtained only by treating each case carefully and considerately as an individual problem. The need for wisdom and sympathy in directors and agents of public and private bodies and for adequate administrative organization was brought out.

INQUIRY ON ASYLUM DEATHS REQUESTED.
East Washington Citizens Make Suggestion to Commissioners.
A resolution requesting the District Commissioners to investigate two violent deaths in Washington Asylum Hospital the past month, was adopted by the East Washington Citizens' Association at a meeting recently in East Washington Hall. Dr. Charles M. Emmons, president of the association, introduced the resolution. He referred to the killing of Philip Hoff, an elderly man, by an alleged insane patient, and the death of Mrs. Pearl Jones, colored, who committed suicide while under observation as to her mental condition.
"How it was possible for a patient under observation to take her life," said Dr. Emmons, "I can't understand. It certainly is wrong to pick up people and take them to a hospital to be observed and then not observe them. "It appears to me," he added, "that relatives of this woman who took her life have a just claim against the District, and as a taxpayer I am willing to dig down in my pockets and help pay damages."
New Buildings Demanded.
Dr. Emmons said conditions at the hospital were deplorable. The institution is overcrowded, he declared. He said the remedy was in the early construction of Gallinger Hospital. Money has been appropriated for the construction of the building, he said, as is the case with the Eastern High School. On his motion, the association voted to ask the early construction of both buildings.
Dr. Emmons and C. Howard Buckler were directed to appear at the several meetings of the Public Utilities Commission when matters affecting street railway fares and gas rates are considered.
It was the sense of the association that the District Commissioners, should make an effort to prevent the tearing up of improved roadways for the installation of pipes and conduits. S. W. Curriden and Dr. Emmons suggested that pipes and conduits should be laid along all unimproved streets-at least six months before improvements are made.
The question of appointment of a successor to the late Major Raymond W. Pullman, superintendent of police, was discussed by Dr. Emmons, Mr. Curriden, Mr. Buckler, Mr. Cross and Charles P. Grose. It was the unanimous opinion of the association that his successor should come from the ranks. The association also went on

AT THE HOWARD.
"The Unborn," the Play of Race Suicide, to. Be Produced Next Week.
Whenever questions arise for the public good and there is no sure and impressive way to reach them, it is generally the stage that becomes the medium of last resort. This is not alone true in this country, but all over the world. "The Unborn," a play that delivers a weighty message against race suicide, was originally produced at the Maxine Elliott Theatre, New York, where it is still playing. While it may be called a propaganda play to forestall in this country what is taking place in all Europe, and that is the "strike that women have undertaken to refuse to bear children," it is also a strong plea to humanity for the furtherance of the race. During the past five years some mighty dangerous questions have arisen, and this question, the strike of barren women, is the most dangerous. It can truly be said that at the present time we are living in a "world gone mad"—some gone mad with success gained through the blood of others, others through sorrow of loved ones who will never return to those who were near and dear to them but yesterday. So who can blame the women who only a few

days ago in Vienna proclaimed before
the Senate of lawmakers, "We
refuse to become mothers until laws
are made to safeguard our offsprings
from butchery that you who sit here
wright again plunge them into."
The story of "The Unborn" deals with a young wife who hopes and prays that she will never bear and give life. Her continual brooding on this subject marks her son, who at birth and during his early years shows all the signs of a heathen boy. He grows up—she continually living in the fear that her desires of killing that which she was to give life to would be marked with her innermost desire. The mother's heritage at last shows itself, and on the eve of his betrothal kills that which he loves best—his sweetheart.
The play has been hailed by the greatest thinkers for the welfare of humanity as the bulwark which will stop the madness that is tearing down the stability of the old world who are populating the countries with children whose parents did not desire to bring new life to the world. Husbands, wives, daughters, sons—see this play, which will teach you that, next to God, the mother who brings a sound, healthy-minded child into this world is the creator of the race. Unborn souls will build perfect nations of the future.

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 pencade; 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 or 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. Seeby Drug Co., 14 Weoster street. New York City.
Quinade and Quinasoap are sold at all of the People's Drug Stores.

Howard kept a one or two point lead until the last five minutes, when Hampton secured the one-point lead, which is held.
The guarding, passing and speed of both teams throughout the game were spectacular and brought the crowd to its feet tim eafter time. The playing of the Hampton team during the last four minutes and with a one-point lead electrified the spectators as well as mystified the Howardites. The Howard team was completely nonplused by the unexpected strength of Hampton.
The second half began with both bers to send their money in to the teams playing a life-and-death struggle. In order to become members of the
HAMPTON DEFEATS HOWARD AND WINS CHAMPIONSHIP.
Hampton, Va., March 6.—The Hampton quintet gave the greatest surprise of the season by defeating the Howard University basketball team at the Central Coliseum on Friday night, March 5. by a score of 17 to 16. On the night of the game Washington was in the grip of the worst storm experienced during the entire winter. The Howard student body and the good-sized crowd of basketball fans who braved the storm saw one of the finest exhibitions of basketball ever seen in the Capital City. The singing of the Howard college songs and the yells by the student body gave the game a strictly college atmosphere.
From the sound of the referee's whistle until the end, the game was the closest and hardest fought one ever played between the two institutions. Howard at the opening of the first half secured a 9 to 1 lead, but Hampton settled down, and this half ended 9 to 9.
Wright and Freeman at guard and McLaren at forward for Hampton played stellar ball, while Tibbs and Garner for Howard were the point getters. Fine spirit prevailed, but the game will long be noted for the close guarding and hard playing.
Hampton's Record.
Hampton's basketball record for the season is as follows: Six college-games played, with five victories. Shaw was defeated at Hampton and at Raleigh, 31 to 15 and 24 to 21. Lincoln was defeated at Hampton and at Philadelphia, 28 to 15 and 32 to 24. Hampton lost the first game to Howard at Hampton, 35 to 24, but won the second game in Washington, 17 to 16. Howard, the only contender for championship honors, has played three games, winning two and losing one. Hampton's basketball record, therefore, entitles her to 1,028 college championship.
the 1920 college champions
The line-up of the game was as follows: Hampton—McLaren and Bradby, forwards; Paxton, center; Wright and Freeman, guards. Howard—Parrish and Tibbs, forwards; Garner, center; Marshall and Wright, guards; substitutions, Carter, Johnson and Kean.
Summary: Referee—Bennie Washington, Armstrong Manual Training School. Timekeepers — Phillips and Harris. Scorers—Claytor and Allex Time of halves—20 minutes. Score—Hampton, 17; Howard, 16.
A GRAVE MISTAKE.
There is a pedic society (colored) which was organized in the fall of 1919 for the advancement of the profession and the get-together of all science chiropodists in the District of Columbia, that they may know and get better acquainted. The officers are Drs. A. E. Green, president; G.V. Smith, vice-president; E. E. Bradley, secretary; L. E. Lassiter, treasurer. It was suggested at one of its meetings the importance of its members belonging to the National Association of Chiropodists, which will receive all chiropodists in the different States who have practiced two years or more or are practicing: providing they enter according to the by-laws of said association. Constitution of membership, Sec. 1, states: "The membership of this association shall include all members of State societies and all members of other State societies to which charters shall be granted by the House of Delegates, pursuant to the by-laws of their association," etc. Any member ceasing to be a member of a duly organized society shall cease to be a member of this association. Further on the by-laws of the N. A. C., Chapter III, House of Delegates. Sec. 3, states: "It shall, upon application, provide for the issue of charts to State societies, but not more than one affiliated society in any on State shall be recognized and chartered by the House of Delegates, an it shall hear and finally determine a appeals taken from decisions of the inquiry."
Now it is a fact that the pedic society of the District of Columbia, which has affiliated with the N. A. C., hence this colored society for its members to become a part of the N. A. C., would have to go through the local pedic society, which is (white) according to the N. A. C. law. Now it is understood that one or more of the colored society made application in the proper manner; said applications were returned, stating that they would have to come through their own society (colored), which would apparently have to be a branch of the white. But this latter procedure would have to be a matter of consideration of the colored society. It is understood that the president of this society did without any authority of the members write to affiliate or become a branch of the local affiliated society of the N. A. C., and also as far as is understood advised the mem
N. A. C., which procedure would mean segregation. It is true, some of our professionals also like to be "jim-crowed" and segregated, when it is their privilege to enjoy the rights which are offered to them by such a high, glorious and noble association as the N. A. C. Further, why should the president of any association be so narrow-minded as to force upon its members a condition which they do not wish or without their sanction, which we, as a people and American citizens, are trying to break down? It is very deplorable to think that those in the professions are advocating such, when they should be aiming at higher ideals of "true democracy." What can we expect of the masses with such would-be leadership? To advise such action without any effort on their part is a sacrifice.

DR. PARKER. uses this table in his office in treating the spine- and
nerves: It is something entirely, new and wonderful in construction. Its
“universal joint” conforms with the principles of anatomy and physiology of
the spinal joints and is remarkably adapted to manipulative treatment ‘of the
human spine: When it is remembered .that the spine is the “backbone” of
the body’ and. contains the spinal cord, which gives off nervés’ to all organs’
and parts of the body, it will readily be understood that health and strength
deperid largely on thé condition of the spine and spinal cord. Strdin, weak-
ness, irregular or abnormal condition of any region of the spine will affect
the spinal cord, thus causing troubles in the organs which get their nerve
supply from that section ‘of the-cord, be it the heart, lungs, stomach, liver,
kidneys, bowels, ‘uterus, bladder, or any other organs. Osteopathic treatment
corrects the spinal, troubles, releases the cord and nerves, regulates the ‘cir-
cculation,. strengthens the organs, and Nature does the rest. Dr. Parker
pays special attention to cases of female troubles and troubles of the ‘eyes
