Predicton of the Prophet HARDING AND COOLIDGE WILL WIN. PREDICTION OF THE PROPHETS. 11TH CHAPTER OF THE PROPHET DANIEL. VOL. XLI. NO. 13 HARDING AND WIN. PREDICT PHETS. 11TH PROPHET DANI Harding Will Be Elected And the League of Nations Will Fall.— Daniel, 11th Chapter. Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him. 2. And now I will shew thee the truth. Behold, there stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all; and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia. 3. And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will. 4. And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of Heaven; and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled; for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others besides those. 5. And the king of the south shall be strong, and one of his princes; and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a great dominion. 6. And in the end of years they shall join themselves together; for the king's daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she shall not retain the power of the arm; neither shall he stand, nor his arm: but she shall be given up, and they that brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in these times. 7. But out of a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate, which shall come with an army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail. 8. And shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their princes, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue more years than the king of the north. 9. So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom, and shall return into his own land. 10. But his sons shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces; and one shall certainly come, and overflow, and pass through then shall he return, and be stirred up, even to his fortress. 11. And the king of the south shall be removed with choler, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north; and he shall set forth a great multitude; but the multitude shall be given into his hand. 12. And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be fled up; and he shall cast down many ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened by it. 13. For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former, and he shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches. 14. And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south; also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall. 15. So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mount and take the most fenced cities; and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand. 16. But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which by his hand shall be consumed. 17. He shall also set his fact to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him the daughter of women, corrupting her: The Washington Bee but she shall not on his side, neither be for him. 18. After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many; but a prince for his own behalf shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease; without his own reproach he shall cause it to turn upon him. 19. Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land; but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found. 20. Then shall stand upon his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom; but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle. 21. And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honor of the kingdom; but he shall come in peacably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries. 22. And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant. 23. And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people. 24. He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strongholds, even for a time. 25. And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand; for they shall forecast devices against him. HARDING AND COOLIDGE. Southern Election Record Preparation Bureau, Washington, D. C. 1. We most cordially invite all persons, male and female, over 21 years of age, regardless of race, color or nationality, who believe in the U. S. Constitution and the laws thereunder, and the advice and fundamental principles of our forefathers since the adoption of the said Constitution that have made our Nation the most prosperous and foremost republican representative form of government of any nation of the world, to join a club or league in your precinct to hold fast to that which we have, and not to be entangled with European countries, and to help in league alliances elect Harding and Coolidge, these true Americans who stand for equal protection to all, for mastership, for our Nation's interest first, as supreme to all other nations and people. 2.

Members of the Parents' League Mnday night drafted a petition asking for the immediate removal from office of Assistant Superintendent Bruce. The petition will be presented to Dr. Ballou, superintendent of schools, at the meeting of the Board of Education next Wednesday. In drawing up the request at the meeting Monday night, which was held in Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, Fifteenth and M streets, it was decided that a "reasonable length of time" would be allowed for a reply from Dr. Ballou, after which, if no action has been taken, the league will "wage war" against the Board of Education and the superintendent of schools, in addition to Assistant Superintendent Bruce. F. S. Tanner, president of the league, presided. A letter from ex-Superintendent Ernest L. Thurston was read, which said among other things that he had recommended the removal of Roscoe C. Bruce. ASS-BRIDLERS ORGANIZED. By-Laws Adopted—Officers Elected. The Washington Bee: The National Association, of Ass-Bridlers, suggested bby The Bee, is a reality. A meeting of persons interested in the movement met Saturday, August 21, 1920, at the office of The Bee for the purpose of organizing. There were present fourteen men, including several old plainsmen and jocks, and one woman suffragette. A well-known, Washington editor called the meeting to order, and he was unanimously requested to act as chairman of the meeting. A temporary scribe was designated by the chair. No set speeches were made, and no one attempted to make any. The chair recognized a gentleman from Baltimore, who read a set of proposed by-laws, which were adopted, after some changes, as follows: Object.—To bridle, shear, roach, brand and train asses, particularly black and tan asses, more particularly loud and raucous voiced semi-wild asses, who, self-appointed, presume to act as spokesmen for the colored people. Officers.—One Chief Bridler and Brander; one Pooh Bah (general manager, keeper of the stable and keeper of the records and funds); one Brander, Shearer and Roacher; one Voice Doctor; fifty Herders (one for each State and Territory). Meetings.—Annual, June 19, at Washington. Dues and Fees.—Ten cents a year. Main Office.—1109 I street northwest. Washington, D. C. Official Organ.—The Washington Bee. Officers were elected to fill the principal offices. The Pooh Bah was authorized to fill vacancies by appointment. The following resolutions were adopted: Ordered. That it being unlawful to kill, the proposed Society of Fool Killers will not be formed by this body. Ordered. That the Pooh Bah report at the next yearly meeting the wisdom of establishing, in lieu of the Society of Fool-Killers, a gallery, to be known as the Hall of Fools. Ordered, That the thanks of the association are extended to Gideon Whackum, the first paid-up member, for his generous contribution. Ordered, That, for administrative reasons, the names of the officers and members be not published by vote in annual meeting. The Pooh Bah announced that fees and donations had amounted to $2.40; disbbursements for postage, 30 cents; balance in treasury, $2.10. The meeting then adjourned. Persons interested in the objects of this association may address or call on the Pooh Bah at the home office. Send no money until application for membership is approved. THE BEE IN DEMAND. There has been a marked special demand for extra copies of The Bee containing articles on the HoustonCrisis episode, race adjustment experts, the bridling of asses, political philosophy and political policy. We purpose to continue the articles on political policy for several weeks, and, for convenience, of reference, that series of articles will bear consecutive numbers. In ordering extra copies applicants may state either the date of issue or the number of the article or the substance of the article. Back numbers are 5 cents each; no reduction for quantity. SPECIAL CARFARE RATES FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN On behalf of the 60,000 boys and girls attending the local public schools, I respectfully submit the following appeal for the favorable consideration and support of the members of your association. The high cost of living in the District of Columbia, the increased cost of textbooks and the advanced price of cadet and gymnasium uniforms impose a grave financial hardship on many families in keeping their children in regular attendance in the public schools. In view of the foregoing, together with the great distance from which many children are compelled to come to school and return daily, irrespective of weather, loss of time, and other adverse conditions, your association will render a very important, service in aiding to secure from the local street car companies a special car fare rate for school children, the same to be not less than six tickets for 25 cents, and to become effective at the beginning of the next school term in September. Hoping your association will most actively cooperate in this worthy cause and petition the management of the street car companies to the end herein set forth, I have the honor to remain. Very respectfully yours. (Signed) J. C. Wright. A NEW BANK. Prof. W. G. Pearson, of Durham, North Carolina. Durham, N. C., August 21.—Prof. Industrial Savings Bank, 11th and You, N. W.

Spencer Finley, who is well known in this city, having pioneered vaudeville in Washington, was associated with the Hiawatha Theatre from its beginning. The patrons of this theatre came night after night for a year and ten months, enjoying the high standard of entertainment on the topics of the day, which he turned into fun-provoking recitals in songs and stories, and in all that have followed none has equaled Finley's style of amusing. Later he accepted the management of the theatre. He was employed at the Govern- THE NEW YORK TIMES ment Printing Office, but the work proved too strenuous, and upon the advice of his physician he resigned and traveled in vaudeville for a year. The Lincoln Amusement Company, of Cincinnati, secured him as manager for the Lincoln Theatre, the most modern theatre in the country. After a close scrutiny of his ability, the people of the Queen City gladly appreciated his worth, and his popularity grew in leaps and bounds, and he enjoys the confidence of the masses, who eagerly flock to support his policies, which rank that city first in the high standard of theatrical entertainment. A year ago the Lincoln Amusement Company, after much consideration, took a long lease on the Ly- ceum Theatre, seating 2,000, the largest theatre we have catering to our people. It had been known as a "white elephant." Thousands of dollars had been spent in trying to make it go, but everything attempted was a failure. In one year, under the efficient management of Finley, it has exceeded all expectations of success and is one of the show places of Cincinnati. Despite the fact that Mr. Finley is a busy man, with the management of the two theatres, he finds time to take great interest in civic affairs, feeling that he must give practical assistance. He has the respect of the citizens; and the business world counts him one of its most progressive members. Recently he spent a few days in Washington renewing acquaintances with old friends, who were glad to see him. He expressed himself as being greatly surprised and pleased at the advance steps our people have taken in the city. While here he was invited to give a business talk to the Standard Investment Company, the members of which are contemplating the building of a large theatre here. He also was in conference with two companies which are about to start work on new theatres here and which offered him inducements to assume the management. Washingtonians certainly would be glad were he to accept either of these places. Memphis, Tenn., August 8.—Jim Wilson and Arthur Billings were given life sentences in the criminal court last Thursday. They were accused of killing Frank Rogers, a white farmer of Rosemark. Atlanta, Ga., August 9.—Representative Daniel, of Heard county, has introduced a disfranchisement bill which provides that no person born on the continent of Africa and no person descended from a person born on the continent of Africa shall vote or hold office in the State of Georgia. The bill was referred to the committee on privileges and elections. Gadrden, Ala.. August 7.—Bob Lindsey, a Negro, cashed in $15,000 worth of cotton last Tuesday. Lindsey is already very rich, and he enjoys the utmost respect of the white people in this section of the State. Providence, R. I.. August 6.—Three thousand colored people celebrated Emancipation Day at Rocky Point on August 1. The celebration was held under the auspices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Charleston, W. Va., August 8. One hundred and fifty thousand dollars has been appropriated by the State Board of Control for the erection of a hospital for the Negro insane. The hospital will be placed on a site near the Ohio River and will be known as the "Old Long Farm." Paris, Tex., August 8.—The grand jury which was impaneled at the special term of court has returned a true bill of indictment against five persons for participating in the recent lynchings.

The Dentists and Druggists who will be solicited were selected by the Directors of the Company because of their progressiveness and the great advertising value that their connection will mean in the distribution of this exceptional dentifrice to the race throughout the United States. The demand for the Welters' Tooth Powder has grown so tremendously during the past six months, since advertising in the Chicago Defender, that their manufacturing facilities are entirely too limited, and has forced the management to make immediate arrangements for their larger plant, to be erected in Baltimore, to properly care for the increased business.

C.. AUGUST 28, 1920) > >, POLITICAL BARGAINING. We have recently pointed out that in politics the alignments of ¢ “rqu. particular interests to form a.single fighting group is the i hoax? compromise. [t is a bargain. Pg 4s cca the political successors of Father Abraham combined with the descendants of Uncle Tom to fight the white men of the ilk of Haley and Legree, those successors and those descendants gave up seme prejudice, love or interest of their own to-fight a common enemy for a’mutual advantage. "It was a bargain. : ». The bargain of half a century ago, when. the Northern white Feput'eans and the black man combined forces. is still'a bargain. ‘The consideration wanted and aimed at by the, white Republican lias changed from time to time;,but the thing wanted by. the black maahas remained the same. The white’ Republican first wanted to save the Union, and*the black man helped him. ‘Then’ the white /Kepuilican wanted a-high tariff, and the’ black.man helped: him. In “all instances the Republican, with the aid of the’ black man, has got practically: what-he waited. “But thé particular precious thing for | which the black ‘man bargained he has never, got, namely, complete - freedom and’ political, economic and social manhood. | We, could mention ‘a number of special or supplementary War- gains between these two “high contracting’ parties:” . Here is one: The black. man in Mississippi suffers from the customs of peonage and lynchings and divers other ‘hellish injustices at the-hands of the white kin of the Northern. white Republican; and the: black. man wants reform. The Northern white Republican wants a high tariff ott pig iron? A bargain is struck. ‘The black man. sacrifices the economic interests’ of himself and his white neighbor—for neither needs the tariff. Then-the Northern white Republican undertakes | to incur the displeasure of his Southern white brother. by allying himself with the black. So here are prospects of advantages and sacrifices on each side. : ‘ Each of these choices and-aligsiments—or pretended alignments— can bé justified on the principle of.‘‘do. ut des” (I do in order that you may do). ‘The black man does what he promisés, and does what he does in order to ‘promote an interest: which he deems to'.be dearer or more important or worthy than anything else; he expel soniething substantial in return. - 5 ‘In the exaniple given thé black man repays the good words .of the white ‘man ‘by voting for him or.with him. . Buc’the white Re- publican does not keep his: promise; he does nothing effective to break up peonage aryd lynching. c . This is the grievance ofthe colored Republican against his white Republican ally. The bargain is kept on one side only. The col- ored man has been voting straight and regular for “pig iron” for the last fifty-years, and has helped to’keep “pig iron” in Federal power during all that time, excepting about sixteen years. “Pig iron” hast grown'fat. The pdlitical., economic and - social condition of the ! black: rhan’has grawn steadily worse. : | What is the. black man to do about it? We will try to answer. | POLITICAL GROUPING. “Politics make strange bed-fellows.” We ‘often see a. white pigeon among the blackbirds or a blackbird among the hawks. The fact is that every individual or unit in sélecting a group or making an alignment sacrifices sorie interest deemed for the time to be not of first importance—not paramount. When a ‘blackbird joins the hawks he.no doubt leaves some.dear one behind. He may return. . LT have used-the word “paramount.” - It is the key word ii poli- tics, in strategy, in diplomacy, whether the actor be nation, race or individual, ; “Paramountcy of consideration” is what governs one’s choice of political parties... It is nothing more or Jess than common sense. And common sense may: be one thing in Maine, another in Maryland, and still another in ‘Mississippi. It may have been one thing in’ Fred Douglass’ day and another in Booker Washington’s day. It may be another thing tomorrow. =, We often hear the: question: seriously asked: “Why do not the colored people divide in ‘politics, as white men do; on questions of. State rights, tariff, ‘trusts, bloated bondholders, etc.?”. Also the question :. “Why does every colored statesman happen to know. that _a high tariff is the best thing?” Both questions are natural for a young theorist in politics, but’ the answers are easy. The factor of “paramountcy” is the determining factor. The'colored people think there is a question’ more ‘important to them as a group than the. tariff. And so do the Southern white people. Neither do the South- ern whites split on the tariff. - They vote “solid,” too. .-Of course, every colored statesman knows that.a high tariff is best, and every Southern 'Democrat knows that it is not best: Of course, each says what he knoivs, and, of course, either or both may be talking poppy- cock. The fact is that every doughty partisan has adopted ‘the motto: “I.am for me and my. crowd.” Of coutse, he preaches tariff or no tariff as occasion may demiand.. . | THE BUSINESS LEAGUE. Negro Business League’ is approa has been in existence these n nd orated- and ‘resoluted and pr e things, because about all there is to be seen and heard at the y ny ‘definite or constructive thing t! et SBN S Se bia aS We hope the Negro Business League is approaching’an epoch of useftilness. It has been in existence these many years. It has met yearly and orated: and ‘resoluted and printed: We ‘say’ “it” has done these things, because about all there is of the Negro Business League‘is to be seen and heard at the yearly meetings. We do not recall any definite or constructive thing that the Business League has ever formulated or promulgated: to promote Negro businéss. If it-did, what was it? One year’s subscription given to ‘anyone for a citation of a genuine instance. . At would seem that there are those who want an awakening in this League—this is to be presuméd because they want rotation ii office, i. e., want the offices. : a , Honest-to-goodness “reformers” who seek offices ought to have some. real reform-6n tap, in store or up their sleeve, so to speak. Otherwise, it is of no geneal importance who holds the offices, un- less, perhaps, on aesthetic grounds, some regard should be had to pulchritude of ‘person to oratorical gift. But-pulchritude pulls ‘no parsnips and, oratorical gift opens ‘no golden gate. : _. “The suggestion we are about to make may be deemed by the ‘old-time.‘‘moaners” at these yeatly meetings to be the anti-climax of buncornbe: ” © . 1. Let the League spend less money for printing speeches and less‘ for railroad ard hotel fare: Let it spend less fot the promotion of the League.and more for the promotion of. Business. 2, Let the League hire an expert business promoter dnd organ- izer_who will advise the Negroes specifically what to do in business and how to do it. Let him diagram it to them. Let him from time to time travel from town to town and actually assist the people to organize business enterprises. . Let this business, promoter and. or- ganizer have as many assistants as he may require. ~ . Here isa suggestion: worth,a million dollars. We-give it gratis. *.

The soldier looked puzzled, and the clerk explained that you just wet a sponge with the "Cafeolay" and apply it to your face. Then followed a hearty laugh on both sides as the cross-purposes at which they had been talking were threshed out.

DEPT. 7 2134 Central Ave. Cleveland, Ohio ```markdown ``` A SCHOOL FOR THE TRAINING OF COLORED YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN FOR SERVICE Though it is young in history, the Institution feels a just pride in the work thus far accomplished, for its graduates are already filling many responsible positions, thus demonstrating the aim of the school to train men and women for useful citizenship. The Teacher Training Department The Grammar School The Divinity School The Academy The Commercial Department The School of Arts and Sciences The Department of Home Economics The Department of Music The Department of Social Service PRESIDENT JAMES E. SHEPARD, DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA PUBLIC MEN AND THINGS. The anti-Moton combination of the National Negro Business League in Philadelphia, Pa., was given a dose of soothing syrup on the day of the election. President Brown, of the Standard Theatre, who suddenly came into the limelight, was so affeceted by the soothing oil that his name was not even seen in a shadow. When the black cardinal of Tuskegee showed himself and after he delivered that speech as an offset to the little Napoleon of finance from the District of Columbia, all was over but the shouting. The little Napoleon remarked before he left Washington that he would be the only business statesman to rise in that august body and declare for a business president of a business league, which has been presided over for more than a quarter of a century by a school teacher. The black cardinal of Tuskegee didn't say a word, but "soft-soaped" the delegates and members of the colored press to such an extent that they didn't know whether they were asleep or dreaming of the exploits of the late Booker T. Washington. The ghost of Booker T. Washington appeared to the eyes of the delegates in a manner that paralyzed all opposition. When the time arrived for the election of officers, the vote was by acclamation, and the little Napoleon of finance stood all alone wwondering how Will Bowie was getting along counting the cash he left behind in the vault of the Industrial Savings Bank. If Secretary Emmett J. Scott had any thoughts, he wildly expressed them to his confidential friends. A meeting of local Republicans was held, a few days ago to decide on a colored leader, Jim Cobb's name was suggested by Tony. Wells, of the Blaine Invincibles, opposed him and thought of swapping "the devil for the switch" by substituting the name of Whitby McKinley of the late Capitol Savings Bank. There was some hot old time in town that night. The meeting adjourned without selecting a District colored leader. In the recent campaign a local quasi-leader was selected by the lily-whites. Colored local Republicans propose to select their own leader and they don't propose to follow any hand-picked leader by a hand-picked organization. The local lily-whites and the associate lily-blacks are "kings" of the past. Moses. Duke is some peculiar individual. He has a brother who has served him faithfully for thirty years. Mose has a heart and some conscience, and he thought it was time to give his brother a two weeks' vacation, or more if he desired it. However, Mose told his brother that he would discharge him if he didn't take a vacation, so the good brother decided to take two weeks' off. He left one day on his leave and returned to work, the next day. The moment he entered the door Mose, with that DEPARTMENTS ALREADY ESTABLISHED The Best Place to Eat .

Two days of the week Mose's faithful brother walked from Twelfth to Thirteenth street on Pennsylvania avenue; looking wistfully at 1212, after which he vanished like a breeze of wind, and when last heard from he was in Atlantic City taking sea baths. He will return, this week imbued with the thought that he has one good brother in Moses Duke. After twenty-four years in one place, Attorney T. L. Jones and Justh's Old Stand parted company. Old Man Justh and Attorney Jones have been good old friends, so much so that it gave Attorney Jones the heartache to leave 611 D to go to 613 F streets. But, friends as they have been, it was the delight of Old Man Justh when he succeeded in parting company with his ancient friend. The Sage has always held both in the highest esteem, and if business is not as prosperous as it has been, and Attorney Jones could afford to have his imported tailor to make his winter suit, Old Man Justh and his astute manager have agreed to allow Attorney Jones to select the best second-hand suit they have in stock.

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. Dr. Parker pays special attention to cases of female troubles and troubles of the eyes.
