--- R. C. EDMONSON MAKES AN ABLE DEFENSE ON G.C. HOUSTON'S ATTACK ON NEGRO COLLEGES. Editor of The Bee: "Weaknesses of the Negro Colleges" is the title of a long article in The Crisis magazine for July, by G. David Houston. The article is a bitter diatribe against persons, things and practices, the most of which are not named and not located. In reality, the assault is directed against persons, things and practices in the following order: Against the president of Howard University, the colored trustees of Howard, the trustees of Howard generally, the management of those Negro colleges that are controlled by white people, the management of Negro colleges generally, the practice of employing white presidents and white professors for Negro colleges, the college charters which provide self-perpetuating boards of directors for Negro colleges, the employing of ministers of the gospel as presidents of some of those colleges, and the emphasis given to religious teaching in Negro colleges. The article is especially contemptuous of white teachers for Negroes. The article, though long and labored, is peculiar in that it contains not a scintilla of information; does not attempt to prove any definite central proposition, and offers no practical solution of any problem. The writer asserts that there is a "first obvious weakness," a "second glaring weakness," and a "third grave weakness" of the Negro colleges, namely, respectively, the preacher president, the white president and the superannuated (mossback) trustees. These three assertions, with the remarks following each, are the nearest approach to any proposition or argument that I find in the article. While the performance is signally negative as to information, proof or advice, yet by reason of earmarks indicating it to be the composite product of several authors and by reason of its evident revolutionary or mischief-making design, the article is likely to attract wide attention. The author is said to be a New England man, comparatively young, a graduate of Harvard University, a former teacher in the public schools of Baltimore and at Tuskegee Institute, and for a short time recently a professor of rhetoric at Howard University. He is now a teacher of English in the Dunbar High School, at Washington. Of course, he is a colored man. Some suppose that he was separated from Howard against his personal inclination. the article in The Crisis evinces great bitterness against the present president of Howard and contempt for past white presidents thereof, as well as for the present, few white professors and the few colored trustees thereof, although the article does not mention Howard by name and does not name any particular person attacked. Instead the author makes a sweeping assault on Negro colleges generally, and in doing so injects some of the painful and knotty problems of the general race question, for which he offsets in no instance a solution. The article is scurrilous, slanderous and indiscreet in the extreme. The whole performance is nothing less than an attempted blow at the higher education of colored youth, so far as education is promoted by colored colleges in the South. This professor, having made an unsuccessful effort to function in colored colleges and being perhaps, without hope of further employment in that field, now aims a general ruin. Fortunately, few hardheaded colored people, with no personal axe to grind, will be influenced by the professor's diatribe. They will see that his attitude is that of the fox whose tail had been cut off without the consent of the fox. They want none of The Washington Bee their anatomy and none of their advantages cut off. But we can not over-estimate the bad impression that this diatribe is calculated to make on those philanthropic white people of the North who in the last sixty years have been the main financial supporters of the Negro colleges and the only real promoters of higher education for colored youth. Should we not be surprised that The Crisis admits to its columns, and features, such a baneful article? Should we not regret that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People indirectly lends countenance to such a vicious and impolitic performance? I have been asked to answer Professor Houston. It can't be done. There is really nothing of account in his article to which one could reply. If anyone thinks so, let him tell me what. Did you ever go out gunning and find no game, but only numerous small birds and other creatures that were either too elusive for you or not worth your ammunition? Then, why notice Houston's article? Answer: There is sometimes a pest of rodents or other vermin that demands an effort at eradication. We are often compelled to be rough on rats, although the task is tedious and distasteful. As Bee stated editorially last week, "there is positively nothing in Houston's production but the plaint of a place hunter." The editor might have added that Houston represents a group of place hunters, rapidly growing in number and voraciousness of appetite, not the fewest being graduates of white Northern colleges, "who follow the work of education (teaching school) as an economic necessity" (because they have found already prepared for them no other means of genteel existence), and who seem to have discovered no other economic necessity for the colored people as a whole. They are simply holders of soft, genteel jobs or hunters of such jobs—jobs none too lucrative. Seldom has one of these intellectual prodigies started a large business enterprise—store, factory, farm or bank—in the interest of his people, or sought to promote one started by some less polished Negro. They are not the legitimate spokesmen of the colored people in matters of large educational or economic concern, because their vision is purely selfish and because they seldom or never deal with fundamentals But however insignificant Mr. Houston's performance may be decied to be for literary, argumentative or social-constructive merit, and however incompetent Mr. Houston may be as a spokesman on the things lie presumes to talk about, it is necessary to counteract the poison gas that he belches forth. The malignity of that gas, the wideness of its spread by The Crisis, and the prospect of repeated clouds of it, demand both an antidote and a prophylaxis—a corrective of the evil done and a preventive for future like attack. One main essential to harmony among races of men is to minimize the suspicion of fundamental prejudice and hostility on either side; to refrain from publicly attributing every trivial private grievance to such antipathy; to curb the indiscreet public utterances of irresponsible individuals, white or colored, who seek to make race issues, and to employ a broad constructive diplomacy in the handling of race questions of common interest. The reason is that race prejudice and antipathy are a species of unreason and insanity, and are not often to be adjusted and regulated by the ordinary rules of reason. At every stage there is required gumption, gumption, gumption! This means, among other things, a little forbearance, a little self-control, sometimes a soft answer. In nearly every case of an injury, done on either side, it will be found that the better policy is to deal with it as an individual case and not treat it as a general race question. In the shaping and maintaining of such a policy there rests upon the newspapers and magazines of the different races a grave responsibility. It is my intention to point out that The Crisis article evinces an obliviousness to all of these essentials of a sound policy; that the colored people have no real grievance against the white people with respect to the establishing, maintaining or managing of private colleges for Negro youth; that we have no substantial ground for such complaint, and that we make no such general complaint. Incidentally, which is not very important, it is my intention to show why Mr. Houston is not qualified to speak for the colored people on that subject. Houston reminds us of that blind, angry Samson, a man with a personal grievance, who shook down the Temple, with great injury and loss—a futil, insane performance. The motive was race hatred, personal revenge. Let ambitious colored men, or those moved by hate, mark well the parable of Samson. Blatant speech can sometimes do more harm than brute strength—injure more innocent people. Just now we note that philanthropic white people of the North have under consideration the proposition to establish, in addition to about twenty-seven Negro colleges already established by them, two real Negro universities; one, Howard University and one Fisk University. As yet we have no real Negro university. This would require the raising by gift of at least $2,000,000. The great bulk of such money would have to come from white Northern philanthropists, because the colored people are unable to contribute so largely towards education. We are very anxious not only that the white people continue to support the twenty-seven Negro colleges they are now supporting, but that they contribute the millions necessary to endow and make possible the two proposed Negro universities. A number of friends of Negro education are now earnestly engaged in a movement to secure the two coveted universities. Recently it was announced that Fisk had secured from the General Educational Board (out of a Rockefeller fund) a half million dollars and is now in the midst of an active effort to raise another million We want Fisk to succeed. We want Howard to be equally fortunate. We want better equipped Negro colleges We want the two real universities But just at a crucial moment here comes The Crisis supporting a movement calculated to "spill the beans. It is as if one group of colored people is villifying the philanthropi whites, while at the same time an other group is asking of them vas funds for education. For want of space I must rest here. I hope to pursue the subject next week. R. C. Edmondson. Washingtonotn, July 17, 1920. MT. ZION M. E. CHURCH. Sunday at 11 a. m. Bishop A. M.

Plans for continuing its campaign for the removal from office of Roscoe C. Bruce, assistant superintendent of colored schools, were made recently at a meeting of the Parents' League in the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church. It was definitely decided to continue the campaign until Bruce is removed, whether it be six months or six years. When Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of schools, returns from his vacation, pickets will again be placed in front of the Franklin School. ATTORNEY JAMES A. COBB. They Vouched for Him and Now They Are Kicking Him. The Bee is in receipt of a communication from a well known journalist, making an attack on Delegate J. A. Cobb. The Bee declines to publish it because the men who are now attacking him, namely, Lincoln Johnson, of Georgia; Perry H. Howard, of Mississippi; Colonel Roscoe Simmons, of Kentucky and Mississippi, informed Will H. Hays and the District of Columbia hand-picked National Committeeman that Mr. Cobb was just what the doctor ordered. The Bee didn't agree with this steam roller brigade at first; now it is of the opinion that Mr. Cobb gave them just what they deserved. BUTLER HEIGHTS. There is a rumor afloat in Anacostia, D. C., that certain white people in Butler Heights claimed the credit of closing the colored parks in Anacostia; D. C., and now they claim that they will close the colored school in Butler Heights, claiming that the boys at Mrs. Cook's school are the overflow from the reform school outside of Congress Heights and make trouble between blacks and whites in Anacostia. Those whites who make complaints are alleged to be slackers from the Navy Yard. Miss Marion Brown, of Elvans road, a teacher at the James A. Garfield school, has gone to New York City, where she will enter the summer course for teachers at the Columbia University. umbria University The lawn party held on Friday night on the lawn of Mr. and Mrs. Joy, on Howard road, netted quite a large sum for the Queen Esther Chapter. Our old friend Smith Adams, of the firm of Adams and Smoot, undertakers, of Nichols avenue, is a top-notcher in the business world. The fine plant this enterprising firm has erected on Nichols avenue is a credit to any race or people. Mrs. Julia R. Coston, after budying her daughter, Mrs. Arnetta Carrol, of Baltimore, Md., has returned to her home on Howard road after an absence of three months. The committee selected by the Commissioners met at the Anacostia Bank on Tuesday night to map out the territory affected by the new zoning law. Those in attendance were: Maurice Auterback, Colonel Arthur Randall, Wb. J. Latimer, Elzie S. Hoffman, Matt. Taylor, Jesse Foster and W. I. Carroll. The entire field was gone over, and the committee's recommendations for zoning Anacostia and adjacent territory were forwarded to the Zoning Commission, Municipal Building. Down at the Municipal Building is our own Allie Moss, son of John W. Moss, Sr., who is forever ready to aid in securing the necessary data pertaining to property, etc. Allie holds a responsible job in the office of the Collector of Taxes of the District of Columbia. Another hustling brother is John W. Moss, Jr., who has his shingle hanging out as a notary public. He is also doing nicely. Mrs. Mattie Smith, of Howard road, one of the first settlters in this suburb, has been confined to her home for several months in ailing health. Mr. Robert Smith, her husband, reports her condition as being greatly improved, which is pleasing news to her many friends. Concerning Green Willow Park, and new developments have occured that will permit License Clerk Wade Combs to grant the annual license to Mr. and Mrs. Newton, the owners.

The new church officers were elected, and are as follows: Mr. James McPherson and Mr. Morris Lockwood. The quarterly reports from the different organizations were submitted and highly praised by the presiding elder, who was specially elated over the report of the Women's Home Missionary Society. Vernie S. Bumbry was elected delegate to the District Conference, which will convene in August. Rev. J. I Carroll, ex-pastor, was among the number of visitors and was heartily welcomed by everyone.

WHITING, President RIVER VIEW PARK Room 5, Center Market Phone Franklin 5473 Some time ago a very well known colored physician, who lives by his practice and doesn't depend on doing crooked work, was excluded from the Medical Association because he issued more prohibition certificates than necessary. This physician surrendered his permit, while two others in the same association had their permits taken from them for a violation of the rules by which permits are governed. The doctors from whom the permits were taken were permitted to remain in the Medical Association, while the physician who voluntarily surrendered his permit was expelled from the association. Those who were most active in excluding the innocent doctor were under a cloud several years ago, at which time the innocent physician sympathized with his present enemies. Well, this is the way the world goes around, and the part the inhabitants play often reflects the present-day operation. This wronged physician is one of the most progressive in the country, and neither does he live by the likes or dislikes of the real estate Medical Association, because most of the colored physicians are more active operating in real estate than they are in practicing their profession. My good friend A. W. Scott is being urged for next Exalted Ruler of Elks. There is a growing sentiment in his favor. It looks very much like the former Exalted Ruler will dictate the next nomination. *** Attorney L. M. King, whose automobile was borrowed from in front of his office some months ago by an unknown individual, has not had it returned to him as yet. Maybe his auto is among the lot that was discovered by the local police department. There was some excitement in T street between Ninth and Tenth streets northwest a few days ago. A recently married couple threw bouquets at each other until the weaker of the two carried the stronger to Juvenile Court. When two persons can't agree, it is best for them to separate. It pays better. *** I don't hear anything about the Blue Birds now. I thought they would have given a select picnic before now. It is amusing to hear how some editors try to knock others. Whenever you hear an editor boast of his circulation, that he has more than the other fellow, go around to the dealers and ask if they have any old papers on hand. I saw a cartload of unsold papers being hauled out of his office and from some of his agents a few weeks ago. People who have such a large circulation report to the income-tax collector that their circulation is only 2,000 and their income not a thousand dollars per year. Those who write for advertising rates are told that they have a circulation of 30,000. Write and ask if you don't believe the Sage. A circulation of 30,000 brings in an income of $1,500 weekly, excluding his income, so he says, of $200 per week from advertisers, and, he being an unmarried editor, should make his report to the income-tax collector without reservation. The National Race Congress will, it is said, meet next October, at which time an itemized report on the race riot fund will be made. It has been over a year since the race riot and yet we have had no report. **** There is to be a big fight for reorganization of the National Negro Business League.

It is claimed that a business man should be at the head of the Negro Business League and not school teachers. Thomas J. Calloway was sent to perfect certain business for the league, and Dr. Emmett J. Scott vetoed it by saying that he would have to consult the executive committee. It is claimed that Dr. Scott is the executive committee and the entire program is made up by him. The fight in the next meeting will be a hot one. THE BECKWITH CHEMICAL COMPANY. Cleveland, Ohio, July 21.—The Beckwith Chemical Manufacturing Company, a corporation with offices at 2134 Central avenue, this city, is offering a cash prize of $200 to the woman, girl, man or boy who suggests the most suitable name for its toilet preparations. This company for several years had been doing a very successful business under the name of the Ambrosia Toilet Company; "Ambrosia" appearing on all articles manufactured by it, but, finding that an Eastern company manufacturing an entirely different line of articles had previously copyrighted its name, it decided to reincorporate as the Beckwith Chemical Manufacturing Company and to offer a $200 cash prize, free to all, for the most acceptable coined name to appear on all toilet preparations manufactured by it. Information as to rules governing the contest may be had by writing the company direct. OUR NEW HOME PORD COLLEGE PENDLETON AVE. ST.

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 and money using anything else. Quinade is not an ordinary pomade; 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 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 Quinasoap, 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.

LITTLETON, TENNESSEE. R.R, CHurch’s Threats Will Not De- “ter the Loyal Coloted Republicans From Supporting Littleton. Bob Church, the’ self-appointed po- litical leader of Tennessee, has begun a fight on Hon. Jesse M. Littleton, who -is a candidate for the Repub- lican nomination: for- governor. | He holds’ Littleton responsible ' fer his defeat as a delegate to the. National Convention. After Church won his contest before the National Commit- tee, C. B. Quinn, the contestant, ‘took an appeal to the Committee on Cre- dentials. The ‘Tennessee member- of the Committee ‘on Credentials was a member of the National Committee where Bob won’ his case. How ‘Was Church Defeated?” James Cobb, the delegate from the District of Columbia, Bob Church's attorney, was a member of the Com- mittee on Credentials and represent- ed. him, which was. natural. . His brilliant speech extolling the wealth, the social standing, the civic purity, ‘etc, of the contestee caused bitter resentment from Mrs. Allen, a white woman from .Memphis, who wa: present at the committee meeting anc who replied“to Cobb’s argument, She stated she knew more about Church’: reputation than the member who wa: so lavish in his praise:« - Mr. Church was reported to hav said when leaving Chicago for Mem phis that the satisfaction he got ow of his defeat was+that Littleton wa going to run-for governor. He ha oiled the machinery of the Lincol: League of América, his Trojan horse land put Colonel Swayback. Wilson, o Shelby counfy, in command. ‘Th colonel is a seasoned veteran, wh has. managed to exist on-his politica wits’ for thirty-five years. Leagu meetings will-now be held through out the State, . . The meeting at Chattanooga tha passed resolutions against Littletor was, composed’ of less than twenty who are’ well-known. stool pigeon: and puppets. Mr. Wallace Simms, former deputy sheriff and a leading politician of Chattanooga, comment ing upon the activities of the Liticolt Leagie, said: “Talk about lettin Bob- Church dictate to the colorec voters of Hamilton cotinty, how the; shall vote—that is silly.

C:, JULY 24,.1920. WHO.IS TO BLAME? ‘The Bee desires to, place a few facts béforé its readers and the colored citizens of Washington and ask them. who is.to blame. “Some few years ago, colored ‘citizens.of Washington were. per- mitted to enter the grounds at Cabin John’s Bridge.’ Some few years ago they were permitted’to go on the dancing pavilion ‘at Chevy Chase Lake, and they’were also permitted to go‘to the old German Park aboye the boundary on the Seventh: Street road, and they were given unlimited accomniodations on the Washington and Norfolk steamboats. All of these privileges have -been taken: ftom them, except a very limited accommodation is accorded them on the Washington and Norfoll: steamboats... ¢ The-question is, Who is to: blame for the taking away of these accommodations? Eyery: theatre “in the city was opened. at one . time to the colored citizens, and today many of the larger theatres don’t even want'to give him-a “jim crow”.corner. Who is to blame? Will someone who knows answer this question? . : Now, since’ there is so much segrégation. and discrimination against the colored citizens-of Washington, what is’ the result? They have their own ,theatres—the. Howard, the Foraker, the Hiawatha, the’Mid-City and Dudley’s You Street Thedtre—and one is about to be erected ‘and another in embryo in the squaré between, ‘Thirteenth and, Fourteenth streets-on You street northwest. ‘It is to be one of the largest theatres in the city. This enterprise is known as the Dudley-Murray United Theatre Corporation, known as the Douglass Theatre, with’ an. authorized capital .stock of $500,000. , : : - Forced segregation and discrimination against colored Americans has been brought on by the conduct of others, which has been the medium through which our enterprises have succeeded. . The ‘blame for the discrimination and segrefition has been brought on-by cer- tain members of ‘the race. While the ‘success. of the progressive classes has been due to prejudices of certain, people. who arrogate to themselves race superiority, and the attempt of this.class to desride! and humiliate: the colored people has made. the. progressive. class risé above the common level. ” s | FREDERICK DOUGLASS HOME. If there ever-was a disgrace attached to those who have had chargé of collecting funds for the Frederick. Douglass ‘Home, it is the continuation of collecting funds for this -home. This piece ‘of mortgaged: property has ‘been in charge of a committee of women who have had’ the distinguished (?) duty of collecting funds to pay off a mortgage that was placed on them by the’ last wife of the late Frederick Douglass. In the beginning there was a. charity tenant in charge of the home, who didn’t pay any rent for a: nuniber of.years.. This ‘charity ‘tenant had certain duties to perform, and whether she performed them The Bee. will have to call 6n Mr. Archi- bald HL Grimke for this. information.” After this charity tenant relinquished his tenancy the -honie was given to.a committee of colored ‘women, who declared: that they would pay off this debt of about eight thousand dollars: . Ever since the death of Mr. Douglass, or ever since the wife left the home to the: colored people after it had been mortgaged to death, these colored people have been col- ‘lecting’ funds to pay off this’ mortgaged debt of eight thousand dol- ldrs." Below The Bee publishes an excerpt from the report of the “National ‘Association of Colored People, which met’ at ‘Tuskegee, Ala., on the occasion of its twenty-fifth anniversary: 7 “The Frederick Douglass-Home. . “The report of Mrs. J. C. Napier, of Nashville, Tenn., covering the ‘activities of the Association in restoring the Frederick Douglass. Home, is a fine tribute to the perseverance of the members: * Mrs.. Napier, who is the custodian of the funds for the Frederick Douglass . Home, reported, that the total amount, received was $7,654.55, of which $4,559.50 was already spent. One of the most important details in.connection with the report of the Douglass Home’ was the statement in- Mrs. Talbert’s;address.that while in France she had presented the cause of the Douglass Home to the colored. soldiérs overseas, and that they-had. responded ‘by raising the sum of 7,145: francs for this purpose.”.. ° : eg The committee has been several -years collecting, and it has not collected sufficient funds at yet.. The Bee would suggest, as both men and women have failed in paying off this mortgage, that ‘the home be turned over.to the Day Nursery Association: for Colored ' Children. ae. 7 - HENRY LINCOLN JOHNSON. tment of Henry Lincoln Johnson, sor ill H.

Yet she cited the Randall‘ case as one of the reasons why Thurston should not be re-elected’ superintendent of the schools.” . Mrs. Cook, was for Syphax and also Dr. Johnson. Another member of the poatd who stood out against Thurston and who was.the second lieutenant of Dr. Van Schaick was standing out for Syphax. ‘1 Those are some of thé:reasons why she opposed Mr. Thurston.. Another: eason was a controversy between Dr. Moten, the hedd ofthe Miner Normal school, and Charlottes’ Hunter, .a eacher -in.the school at that time, bout” whom the newspapers “have iblished articles, about whom wit-, 1esses have testified in the courts of he District; about whom muuch testi- nony was given before the select com- nittee—a woman who was forced to esign from the schools of the city of Nashingtoii because of. her associa- ion with a man by the -name of. foens, an impostor, a degenerate, a nan of low character, who claimed to ¢ an anthropologist frony Holland or omewhere else. - “There was a row on or a contro- ersy between Dr. Moten and Miss tharlotte Huriter, who then taught in er school, and this member of ‘the oard about whom’ I’ am. now spcak- 1g took the.side of Charlotte Hunter, nd since that time, as the evidence isclosed, there has been a fecling of ntagonism-against Dr. Moten.

Newiman, who was then president of the. Board” of Commissioners;. and there has, been no doubt, from the time that Dr, Van Schaick_ was’ first considered for a place on the board, hat he: was, close to and* influential with the members of the.“Roard of Commissioners. “Here is what he said.

District, who ‘was afterwards taken from. the Commissionership and placed on the Supréme Court of-the District of -Co- Humbia; ahd through the hearings the fact is ‘disclosed that Van Schaick belonged to the same club in the city of Washington—the Monday Evening Club,;or some such club—to which certain members’ of the District’ Su- preme, Court bench belonged, and to which the Commissioners of the Dis- trict of Columbia, or most of them, belonged. ae The Presiding Officer: Will -the Senator suspend for a minute until the occupant of the chair again calls to the attention of the occupants: of the galleries the fact that there’ must be no demonstration whatever? If there ‘are any others the rules of the Senate will be carried ‘out /and the galleries will be cleared. . Mr: Harrison: So he saidy * * * And no one can doubt “S——” was Siddons, the other Commissioner. He stated that “the individual concerned” ‘was Mrs, Rhodes, the member of the board about.whom I am now talking. This president of the Board of Ed- ucation, evidently desired to’ strength- en the Commissioners with the Board of Education, and so he suggested in this_very: loving letter. ‘So we have it from the pen of Dr. Van Schaick himself, in speaking of one of the members of the board who had helped to pramote him, to the presidency. and ‘who had’ constantly stood with him in his fight against Thurston. " Need -I. say more touching’ this member, when the president. of the board himself has such an opinion of her that even he thinks that she could’ not give justice to’ Thurston at any stage at any time?

Washington, D.C, . - July 14, 1920, To the Editor of The Bee: . The question, When is a Blue Book not a Bluc Book? may be answered, When it is'a “Negro Blue Book.” This is in reference to an observa- tion I-recently made of that certain publication entitled the’“Negro Blue “Rook.” To the ordinary layian the term “Blue Book” conveys the idea of a Social register and, I. think, to give a businéss directory. such an erroneous title is nothing short of disgrace to all Washington's society, especially where others of distant cities scru~ tinize the doings of social circles here. ig A glance at the outside title of that publication; one. would naturally. ex- pect, to seé inclosed therein the repu- tation established by the elite, but, de-to contrario, the inside thereof con- tains nothing more than. the nanies of a great many business men, zi Didn't the perpetrators of this pub- lication’ -know the colloquialistic ‘meaning of that term?

Every State in the Union was represented, and there never has been gathered at Tuskegee Institute a more representative group of visitors than has been there this week.

We can assure you that during this session, which marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Association, as in past sessions, we will be guided by that broad, uplifting spirit which characterized the life and works of Booker T.

The motto of the Association, "Lifting as We Climb," was most beautifully referred to by Mrs. Talbert in comparing the spirit of the work of the Association with the spirit which animated the life of Booker T.

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 nerves to all organs and parts of the body, it will readily be understood that health and strength depend largely on the condition of the spine and spinal cord. Strain, weakness, 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 circulation, strengthens the organs, and Nature does the rest.

In a recent statement issued by the Child Labor Office of the District of Columbia it was stated that working permits issued to minors for the year ending July 1 showed a decrease of 409. One thousand sixtynine children were granted permits to work during the year. The decrease is explained as due principally to the gradual return of the city to prewar conditions and the subsequent less demand for the labor of children. Six hundred and sixteen permits were issued to white boys and ninety-eight to colored boys; while one hundred and ninety-eight permits were granted to white girls and ninety-eight to colored girls. In a statement from the board of directors of the Pythian Hall Association, the attention of Sir Knights and stockholders is called to the fact that "certain irregularities" exist, and a readjustment is asked for. It is alleged that there is a bitter feeling on the part of many stockholders against the three trustees. The statement urges the attendance of all interested at a meeting, the purpose of which meeting will be to have the Hall Association incorporated, if that has not already been done. The Marching Club of Columbia Lodge, No. 85, Elks of the World, in connection with their great Kansas City drive, gave a porch dance, and lawn fete at the residence of Mrs. Cooper, 201 T street northwest. The affair was a brilliant success. The object of the entertainment was to raise funds to help defray the expenses of the entire Marching Club to Kansas City. The attendance in uniform of Morning Star Lodge, No. 40; Forest Temple, No. 9, and Columbia Lodge, No. 85, added much to the occasion. The Liberty Department Store Company, 420 South Capitol street. has issued its prospectus. This company is to be incorporated under the laws enacted by the Congress for the District of Columbia, and intends to do a merchandise business. The company was organized on December 2, 1919. *** While working on a scaffold at Sixteenth and U streets, James H. Ford, colored, fifty years old, fell to the sidewalk and received injuries to his skull from which he later died at the Emergency Hospital, where he was carried for treatment. No one was able to explain just how the accident happened. In the Literary Digest for July 17, under the caption "Our Debt to Negro Sculpture," we find Vivian Harris, writing in the Africa and Orient Review (London), quoted as follows: "The Greeks, upon whose tradition European culture has been living for twenty-five centuries—chewing its cud, so to say—the Greeks also were indebted to Africa for what they knew of the art of expressing emotion in plastic form." In speaking of a collection of Negro sculpture put on view at the Chelsea Book Club in London, the Digest goes on to say, "If beauty is 'form manipulated to express an idea in art,' as Sclopenhauer avers, then he and African Negroes cordially agree." It is interesting to read the platform of the Republican party of 1920. Industrial relations must be dealt with, and the interests of both capital and labor must be taken into account. In another place may be found this statement, "The crux of the present agricultural condition lies in prices, labor and credit." The high cost of living is hit. One of the most vital questions is passed over in a paragraph of fewer than fifty words: "Lynching—We urge Congress to consider the most effective means to end lynching in this country, which continues to be a terrible blot on our American civilization." Louis C. Randall, colored, who was to have been hanged on July 22, for an alleged assault, has had his sentence commuted to thirty years' imprisonment, which term probably will be served in the penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga. He will serve this sentence at the expiration of a fifteen-year sentence for assault upon a young colored woman, a teacher in the public schools.
