A Few Complaints French Make Announcements Paris, France, Feb. 14.—The foreign office announces that only 227 complaints were filed against all the French colonial troops in Germany, including the colored troops withdrawn last June as well as the Algerians and Arabs. These troops spent the equivalent of 19,050,000 days on duty in Germany. Of the 227 complaints, the announcement said, seventy-two cases were proven, ninety-six were doubtful and fifty-nine unfounded. The seventy-two proved cases resulted in one imprisonment for life, seven suspended sentences, twenty-eight imprisonments, twenty-three subjections to military discipline and the dropping of thirteen cases. Nine cases of rape were established, according to the announcement. The status of the colored race in the United States is still further shown by the following extract from the Congressional Record: Mr. Kahn: Mr. Speaker, availing myself of the privilege granted me to extend my remarks in the Record, I desire to call attention briefly to the splendid service rendered by colored soldiers in our recent war. But it is a fact that as early as the Revolution the black man helped to fight for this country. In all the other wars since he likewise performed signal service as a soldier. loyalty and fidelity to their former owners, their wives and children during that strenuous period was eloquently described in burning language, May 31, 1918, by Congressman Pou, of North Carolina, and at an earlier date by the late lamented Henry Grady, spokesman of the new South, who declared it challenged his high- There is a movement on foot among the colored citizens to have compiled and prepared as a public document a memorial history of the colored race in America which shall narrate its loyalty and service to the Republic. I take pleasure in presenting herewith a copy of a memorial to the Congress of the United States, signed by a number of prominent colored men and women, praying that steps be taken by Congress to have such a publication compiled and issued. The memorial is as follows: "Memorial to the Congress of the United States. "To the Honorable the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, Washington, D. C. "The undersigned, your memorialists, respectfully request the Congress of the United States to provide by appropriate legislation for the preparation, compilation and publication of a memorial history of the colored race, one recording their loyalty and devotion to the United States in all its wars and civil achievements. "We recall the fact that twelve millions of colored Americans neither owe nor pay allegiance to any other flag save that of America, and we urge this loyalty and fidelity should be fittingly recognized. They have never faltered in their patriotism, and point to the fact that history has never recorded a black Benedict Arnold. Recalling the above, your memorialists believe the time is auspiciously ripe to give to the world these salient facts of their history. And, further, that no more fitting monument on the eve of a great world peace could be provided than one recording their supreme sacrifices at Lexington, Concord, Bunker Hill, Valley Forge, Red Bank, Groton Heights and other important battles of the War of Independence. "At Lundy Lane, N. Y.; Lake Erie, under Commodore Perry; North Point, Bladensburg, New Orleans and other actions of the War of 1812-1814. They bore a conspicuous part in all the colonial wars and later against the Indians on the frontier. "At Vera Cruz, Mexico, 1847, under Lieut. Raphael Semmes, when they manned the naval battery in that siege; and, again, their fidelity to every obligation assumed was tested in no doubtful manner on both sides of the great civil conflict of 1861. Their The Washington Bee loyalty and fidelity to their former owners, their wives and children during that strenuous period was eloquently described in burning language, May 31, 1918, by Congressman Pou, of North Carolina, and it an earlier date by the late lamented Henry Grady, spokesman of the new South, who declared it challenged his highest admiration as being without a parallel in recorded history. This alone, we believe, warrants our plea. "They were present on every battle field in the Spanish-American War and with Dewey in Manila Bay. But this is not all. In less militant times they were conspicuously in evidence. Pietro Alonzo, a man of color, was pilot of the "Nina" in 1492 under Columbus. They were with Lewis and Clark; 1804-1806, and with J. C. Fremont in 1842 in his explorations of the Rocky Mountains. One of their race stood beside Admiral Robert Peary at the North Pole and waved the American flag on the roof of the world. "No monument of bronze or marble can fitly recount these things. No one place can justly claim them. But not so with a monumental history as herein asked. By the medium we ask an enduring monument would be placed in every city, town, village and hamlet, and in all the great libraries of the world. It would be an inspiration to all who had taken part in the narrated events and a heritage to be transmitted to their children. The loyalty, fidelity and willing response of the race with its blood and treasure during the war with the central powers deserves such recognition, and the most elementary claims of gratitude demand that it should be generously given.

THE MODERN PARADOX; A NAVAL HOLIDAY We would all like to fly like birds and, theoretically, there is no reason why we should not be able to effect it. Practically, however, it would be a dangerous venture. So also we would like to see disarmament and, theoretically, it sound very promising. As an actual venture, however, The Bee is afraid it would prove disastrous as would individual flying endeavors. It has been the privilege of this age to witness the failure of one super-scheme devised avowedly to promote world peace. America was fortunate enough not to become entangled in a mass of European intrigue and chicanery, and it has been proved by subsequent European failure that such it was. The time is not ripe for Utopian plans. Indeed, the last sentence settles the question of disarmament. However desirable, however noble, however idealistic, that second vision of world peace—disarmament—may be, it is out of the realm of the practical things in the United States today. We do not need any overwhelming army, but our geography and our pursuits are such that, for the present, a great navy is our hope and safety—both to the East and the West. But little reflection is necessary, to clinch this. Just think of our national integrity and aspirations; then think of Great Britain and Japan. METROPOLITAN WESLEY The services at this church on last Sunday were well attended, both morning and evening. The sermons delivered by the pastor were well received and enjoyed by all present. The Sunday School and Christian Endeavor held very inspiring and instructive services. The trustees and pastor have ordered a re-registering of the membership of our church. Blanks were issued for that purpose, and each member is requested to fill out one of the blanks and return it on or before March 20. The Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Society is arranging for their annual Mattha Washington tea party, which will take place Tuesday, February 22 at the church. It was announced that Bishop J. S. Caldwell will preach at our church on Sunday, February 20, at 11 a.m. This will be our fourth quarterly meeting day. All members are requested to pay general claims. Our presiding elder, Rev. S. Q. Swann, is expected to be present at the 7:30 p. m. service: The following members are on the sick list: Mrs. Lucinda Wheeler, Mrs. Julia Arthur, Mrs. Mary Nelson, Jas. R. Cooper, Mrs. Eliza Jarvis, Mrs. Rebecca Hawkins and Miss Alice Henson. MU-SO-LIT CLUB OPENING: Marked By Exercises In Memory of Lincoln and Douglass—Senator Thomas Sterling and Hon. Archibald Grimke Speak—Facts As To the Home and the Organization. The formal opening of the Mu-So-Lit Club home, at 1327 R street northwest, held Tuesday evening, February 15th, was marked by a joint memorial program in honor of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass. The principal speakers at the exercises were Senator Thomas Sterling of South Dakota and Hon. Archibald Grimke, president of the District of Columbia branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The special guests of the evening were Messrs. Joseph and Haley Douglass, grandsons of the illustrious Frederick. Music was furnished by Mr. Joseph Douglass, violinist, and Mr. Henry Lee Grant, accompanist. The new club is a three-story-and basement, hot-water heated, press-brick front house, having a south exposure, and set on a lot 25 by 90 feet. Its rich, broad and severely plain, but dignified, exterior connotes all that is to be found in the elegantly apportioned and handsomely furnished interior. In the basement is found a splendid pool and billiard room, thoroughly equipped for those who follow this line of game. To the rear is situated an ample, light kitchen, sufficiently large to provide the necessary culinary features. On the main floor one is greeted by a spacious hall running almost the entire length of the house, the plain severity of the hall being broken by a carpet runner of imitation Bokhara, punctuated in two places by elegant short rugs, and by an elegant and unique solid mahogany hall rack, equipped with magnificent bevel mirrors, and an alligator upholstered back for the settee port. To the right are found two spacious rooms presenting a tone of severe plainness, but essentially rich and aristocratic in general effect. The floors are equipped with imitation Bokhara rugs, matching the hall runner in general character. The parlor and living room is furnished with heavy leather settees and chairs, a beautiful table and a period writing desk. The music room is a study in mahogany, a massive three-piece mahogany suite, finished in green velour, a piano, a victrola and a music cabinet. At the end of the hall on this same main floor is found the dining room, a medium-sized, well-lighted rectangular-shaped room, finished in mahogany furniture, especially noticeable among which are the unique and attractive Windsor chairs for the cafe tables. The second floor is given over to the board of governors' room, an elegantly apportioned library, prominent in the equipment of which is an elegant mahogany library table, fashioned after a model found in one of the early Italian castles, and a large and small card room, both fitted in fumed oak. On the third floor are the quarters of the caretaker and guest bed chambers. The bed chambers are fitted with up-to-date metal beds, durable, and attractive crex rugs, and mahogany dressers and chairs. The entire house has recently been wired and equipped with elegant center light pieces, numerous side lights, floor and table lamps, and extra floor cabouts for the vacuum cleaner attachment. The Mu-So-Lit Club is a close corporation of two hundred gentlemen, incorporated for musical, social, literary and musical improvement purposes, in accord with the laws of the District of Columbia. Fifteen thousand dollars is the sum of the incorporation. The following is a list of the officers and committees: President James LeChestnut; first vice-president, Armond W.

Hampton, Va., Feb. 15.—Howard University basket ball team defeated the Hampton quintet by a score of 28 to 23 in Washington on Friday night, February 11, in what was said to be the most sensational game played there in years. The game was the first big college game to be played in Murray's New Casino, which was packed and jammed, hundreds not being able to find even comfortable standing room. Hampton started the scoring with wonderful passing and shooting that baffled the Howard team and electrified the spectators. The first half was truly Hampton's half, the score at the end being 17 to 7 in Hampton's favor. Howard started the second half with that "come-back spirit" for which she is well known. As she cut down Hampton's lead, the great crowd went wild. Hampton was outplayed in the last half, just as Howard had been in the first—not by superior playing, however, but simply by the Howard spirit, that turned what seemed a certain defeat into victory. Hampton's team showed superior passing, but Howard's spirit made up for their lack of it. In the last few minutes of play, with the score 23 to 21 in Hampton's favor, the Howard team put forth its supreme effort. Then, amid the wildest cheering and pleading on the part of the students for a victory, the Howard team "delivered the goods" by defeating Hampton by a score of 28 to 23, in one of the greatest games ever played between the two institutions. The spirit on the part of both players and spectators could not have been better. . The second game of the series will be played at Hampton Institute on Washington's Birthday. Line-up: Hampton—McLaren, right forward; Long and Chamberlain, left forward; Henderson, center; Jones, right guard; Gunn, left guard. Howard—Richardson, right forward; Kean, left forward; Simms, center; Clarkson, right guard; Davis, left guard. Referee: Benjamin Washington. Timekeepers: Gideon Smith and Mr. Allen. Scorekeepers: Mr. Conway and Lawrence Lee. Time of halves, 20 minutes. FUNERAL OF MR. MARCELLUS SYPHAX. The funeral of Mr. Marcellus Syphax took place on Monday, February 10, from St. Augustine's Catholic Church, with high mass. He had been sick a long time. The employees of his division of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing and his friends sent beautiful floral tributes. Mr. Syphax was one of the few colored clerks in the Bureau. The Elks' Band of Morning Star Lodge, No. 40, of which Mr. Blakely is director, holds its rehearsals at the Pythian Temple every Sunday. Mr. Blakely, the master mind of the band, who is doing all in his power to bring the band up to a high standard among other bands of the city, is a product of southwest Washington. BAPTIST MINISTERS CONFERENCE The glowing reports at the Baptist Ministers' Conference at 11 a. m. on Monday were highly appreciated by the large number of ministers and others who were present. Dr. M. W. D. Norman, the president, presided, and Dr. J. I. Loving acted as secretary. Dr. George O. Bullock, pastor of the Third Baptist Church, reported that Dr. J. L. Peacock, president of Shaw University of North Carolina, would preach at his church in the near future. Dr. Norman requested of the conference to make a donation of $100 to Shaw on the occasion of the president's visit to this city, at which time he will address the conference. The conference voted to comply with the request. Rev. Levi Washington, pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist Church, Burrville, preached the sermon to the conference on Monday at 12:30 p. m. It was well received and he was given a vote of thanks. The conference was addressed by Dr. C. C. Ailer, of Cleveland, Ohio, and Rev. Dr. S. N. Vass, representative of the National Baptist Convention, who is conducting a Bible institute at the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, under the auspices of the Sunday School Union, from 7 to 8 p. m. daily this week. Rev. Mason Morril, pastor of the Friendly Baptist Church, F street southwest, was received at the revival services at the McKinley Memorial Baptist Church, Fourth and L streets northwest. Revs. Chambers, Wynn, Jones and Green are conducting the union ser. night at N. Kinley. Rev. Dr. S. C. Ailer, Neison co. Virginia, is conducting the revival services at the Nineteenth Memorial Baptist Church. Dr. C. C. Ailer, of Ohio, is conducting the evangelistic campaign at the Friendship Baptist Church. Rev. S. G.

The Men's Club of Asbury M. E. Church will present Prof. Toomey's Troubadours of Baltimore; Md., in a grand musical on Monday, February 21, at 8 p. m. Prof. Toomey's Troubadours are a rare treat, and everyone should grasp this opportunity of hearing them. Their singing is unsurpass for perfectness of rhythm and beauty of tone. After hearing them, Governor Hatfield, of West Virginia, said that the company was the greatest aggregation of young artists he had ever seen. The admission to hear this wonderful musical treat is only 35 cents. FAIRMOUNT HEIGHTS NEWS. Mr. John S. Johnson, who has been sick for about four months, is slowly improving. Last Thursday friends presented him with a snug little sum of money on the occasion of his birthday, for which he extends his many thanks. Mr. Walter Snowden, our town merchant, is steadily improving after a long and severe illness. The wise man is knocked sensible, and not senseless, by life's hard blows. If some men were judged by the company they keep, it's rough on some men who are alone. Preachers moralize, but morals preach. JONES & FRISBY, Attorneys.

Y., representatives of some twenty States or more met in the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church and held a conference preparatory to waiting on Miss Paul, of the National Woman's Party; at their headquarters on Jackson place northwest. The meeting was called to order by Miss Hunton and she in detail told of the progress of the work by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. This was a very enthusiastic body of women. Women from as far as California were present. Virginia, New York, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Delaware had quite a number of representatives. Mrs. Stokes and Mrs. Bryant, of Virginia; Mrs. Reid, of Baltimore; Mrs. Alice D. Nelson and Mrs. Stubbs, of Delaware; Mrs. Randolph, of Pittsburgh; Miss Elizabeth Carter, of Massachusetts; Mrs. Layton, Mrs. Butler, Mrs. Cuney, Mrs. Curtis, Mrs. Barnes, Misses Sara and Fairifax Brown, Miss Merrit, Miss Jeanette Carter, Miss Julia Brooks, Miss Julia Davis, Miss Jackson and many others at 12 o'clock filed out from the church and found scores of camera men on the outside who caught snaps of the large group as they passed down Eye street, then Connecticut avenue into Jackson place. On the second floor in the large reception hall they greet ed Miss Paul. A halt was made when the memorial was presented, asking Miss Paul to lend her aid in getting before the convention of the Woman's party, which meets in this city this week, urging them to take up and lend their aid toward the enforcement of the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution and thereby give the 5,000,000 colored women the right to vote. Quite a discussion followed, in which a number of women took part. But as persuasive as was the argument, at no time would Miss Paul say she would present the matter or in any way help to get it before the convention. the delegation left with a greater determination to go on and press the battle. They went to the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. Building. After luncheon they held another meeting, with Dr. Sam Brown as chairman, and laid plans for the week of the convention. MT. AIRY BAPTIST CHURCH. The Mt. Airy Baptist Church is contemplating the erection of a new church in the near future. The property for the new church may be seen at 1150 First street northwest. Already $8,000 has been paid on the property, and the annual rally, which will be held on April 10, we hope will enable us to pay half of the balance. The members are doing their best toward the new edifice. The five weeks' revival just closed was a great success. Ninety-two were baptized, and 114 persons were restored to fellowship. A goodly number of them are strong young men and women. So, with these to fall in line, we are hoping to soon be in the new church. Everyone is welcome at Mt. Airy. GARFIELD NEWS. Rev. M. W. Traverse, pastor of the Allen M. E. Church, preached, a wonderful sermon last Sunday morning to a very large congregation. His sermons of late have been so very powerful that each Sunday his congregation is favored with visitors from other churches. After the sermon he was forced to keep quiet on account of being overheated during his discourse. After the sermon the holy communion was administered to the congregation. Among the many visitors were Rev. Simms, the evangelist, who rendered several very touching hymns. Rev. Simms will preach on Sunday, February 13, at 11 a. m. Prof. Williams, of Washington, D. C., mentalist and phrenologist, addressed the congregation and will lecture at the church on February 25 for the benefit of the Sunday School. Presiding Elder Jas A.

Her battles are all over; her victories all won; and a crown awaits her in the glory land. She passed from "labor to rewards on Thursday, February 10, at noon, in Carson's Private Hospital. She was born in this city and educated in the public schools and graduated with honors. She began teaching in September, 1882, and from that date until her death she was classed as one of the most efficient and successful of the teachers' corps. Several years ago she was named for a promotion to a more prominent position in the schools. She said: "No; I do not care to go. I prefer to stay where I am and help solve the problems with the boys and girls who need me most. Children do not only need the instruction in the school-room, but I can help them build a foundation sure and strong and then pass on to a higher plane and come out able men and women." She was one of the most charitable women of our race in this city. She liked to help do big things in an unknown and quiet way. Her pocketbook was ever open to the unfortunate, the poor and needy. She was happiest when serving as daughter to some old couple or big sister to some orphan children. Some twenty years ago she took into her home two orphans, a boy and girl, whose parentage was entirely unknown, and reared them both and educated them as if they were her own brother and sister. The young woman is married and lives with her family in New York. The boy remained with her and was her constant comfort until death. Truly a great woman has passed away. She was held in the highest Flowers For Funerals esteem by her superior officers in the schools and by associate co-workers. When she was taken down on December 18 with an infected toe and then had to have her limb amputated, from that day until her death the teachers came without solicitation on her part to her bedside with all that could be supplied to help bring her back to health and to them again. They helped truly to make her last days as comfortable as possible. When the end came it was also the teachers who helped to finance the last sad rites. Sunday they were out in large numbers to evidence with their presence and floral tributes how close the tie of friendship is with the teaching force of our schools. Miss Marian P. Shadd, supervising principal of the Garnet School, and Miss K. C. Lewis, a teacher in that school, together with principals from every section of the city, were present to honor her memory. It was truly a sad funeral. Not a relative to follow in the funeral procession. Old friends were the only mourners. Her church associates, the Seventhday Adventists, her pastor, Elder Rodgers and Elder Sheaf were constant at her bedside, and all seemed anxious to do something to help save her life; but the end came. When first taken sick, she sent for her old friend, Mrs. Julia M. Layton, and turned over everything to her, planned what was to be done should the end come. This good friend deserves commendation for the able manner in which the funeral arrangements were carried out. Miss Russell was buried in Harmony Cemetery on Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock.

Programs begin at 8 p. m. Mr. Tibbs is doing the community in general a real service in instituting this series of organ recitals, bringing to us organists of genuine musical reputation, artists in their line. Mr. Tibbs himself is a finished musician of commanding influence and ability, whose thorough work as a teacher and artist stamps him as one of the leading musicians, regardless of race, in this country. Messrs. Freeman and Priest, both white artists of note, will be heard with genuine pleasure as well as interest in this series, as they rank high as organists in the music world. Certainly, the series should command our wholesome interest if for no other reason than the appearance of Melville Charlton, reputed to be the leading colored organist in the country. His playing is a revelation and source of musicianly pride, as his fingers and feet ply the manuels and pedals with utmost dexterity.

While the white phonograph companies are willing to exploit colored musicians in "blues" and ragtime music, they take special pains not to include real artists of our race in high-class works; and this corporation means to fill that wide, wide gap. Mme. Talbert, Roland Hayes and a few others are just as capable as many white Victor and Columbia artists; still they are shut out because of "color," and we (colored folks) are buying their records by the thousands and helping them keep our artists "out." Here's hoping that this colored phonograph corporation succeeds, and certainly we'll buy their records as quickly as the "Okay" Mamie Smith blues records by a white corporation who exploit only lower-grade music by a certain class of music performers of the race.

IS HE A "MIRACLE MAN"?— MANY CLAIM HE IS. Who is this modern "wise man" who looks into the stars of heaven with one eye and into the Bible with the other eye? He reveals your secret thoughts and the true conditions of your life. Wherever we go we hear people talk about this preacher, the Rev. Leo S. Osman, of 909 North Fremont avenue, Baltimore, Md., the man who works wonders with the Bible and the help of God. But where does he get the power that enables him to help so many people? We wanted to know, so we decided to find out. We learned that he has phenomenal success and solves the most perplexing problems with ease. He brings success to the unsuccessful, health to the afflicted, love and peace to friends and families, and brings about harmonious conditions. He is visited by the rich and the poor, and all are treated alike. People from different parts of the world were gathered there awaiting their turn to stand before the blessed shrine and be benefited, and we heard some wonderful results and benefits that the people told us they had received there. Among other things, we learned that Rev. Osman is a graduate psychologer and likewise an ordained preacher. For more than 30 years he has been practicing and helping the unfortunate ones. No matter what your trouble is, he takes it upon himself to help you. If a loved one has strayed and does wrong, if your finances are poor, if your friends turn from you, if you are in poor health and cannot enjoy the life God gave you, bring your troubles to this man. He will cause the clouds to roll away and make sunshine for you and God's blessings will be showered upon you. He does not claim supernatural powers, but says that "God helps him to help others." We have seen hundreds of petitions on his altar written by people from all over the country asking that help might be directed to them and release them from their troubles, and all day and far into the night the Reverend answers their appeals. Every case is filed in a special vault, and when the person has been helped, he or she sends, a letter of thanks, and this likewise is put on file, and we wish to say that the letters of thanks number many a thousand. We learned enough of this helping-hand movement to wish our brother God's blessings, for he is certainly doing a most wonderful work. MOREHOUSE DEFEATS THE STRONG HAMPTON TEAM By E. A. Wilson. Hampton, Va., Feb. 10.—The Morehouse College basket-ball team from Atlanta, Ga., defeated the Hampton Institute five by a score of 37 to 34 in one of the most sensational games of the season. The visitors played a great game, using a somewhat different style of basket ball, namely, the five-man guarding system. Although underestimated by the "Seasiders," the Morehouse playing took the starch out of them. The team work was commendable and the shooting was excellent. Morehouse started the game by getting a long lead in the first few minutes of the game, but at the close of the first half they were only one point ahead of the "Seasiders." The second half was the blood and thunder part of the game. It began slowly and uninterestingly, but Hampton sent in Henderson for Bradby and Chamberlin for Long. These boys made the game pick up. Again the Morehouse stride was shortened and the game ended with the victors only three points in the lead. The line-up follows: Morehouse—Bailey, left forward; Sykes, right forward; Hudson, center; Dunson, left guard; Hope (captain), right guard. Hampton—McLaren, left forward; Long, right forward; Bradby (captain), center; Jones, left guard; Gunn, right guard. Substitutes: Hampton—Henderson, Saunders and Chamberlin. Referee — Poulson. Score — Morehouse 37, Hampton 34. AFRO - AMERICAN PROGRAMS AT A. & T. COLLEGE.

Washington, and unfortunately ored population, is rapidly being in the tidal wave of the narcotic flood communities. To attribute this condition to a difficult task. Some say it is a war medicines originally administered juries, or to mitigate exaggerated shock. Others claim that it is the logical substitutes for liquor. They are assigned.

To attribute this condition to any one specific cause is rather a difficult task. Some say it is a war aftermath—that it is a result of medicines originally administered to alleviate pains from war injuries, or to mitigate exaggerated nervous phenomena incident upon shock. Others claim that it is the reaction to drug stimulants as logical substitutes for liquor. These are some of the reasons that are assigned. Be those as they may, however, The Bee feels very intensely, as regards this evil, along these lines: First, the drug-crazed mind is far more dangerous than the liquor-crazed mind. Second, the drug-crazed mind relatively costs the State far more worry and expense than the liquor-crazed mind. Third, its hold has been far less, proportionately, on the colored citizenry of Washington than on the white population—an advantage which must not be lost. Fourth, some immediate, effective, remedial steps must be taken. The Harrison anti-narcotic act is sufficient as a law. Finally, since a grave condition is arising, and since there is adequate law to meet this rising menace, citizens must demand that the laws be executed—and not just too late, at that. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." The people profoundly appreciate the noble and untiring efforts of Mr. Wellington Adams in his efforts to elevate and bring to the foremost ranks of the music world all that is best within us as a race.

Bilious, Gassy Spells, Pains, Headaches, Loss of Sleep, Appetite and Weight Due to Minor Stomach Troubles Easily Relieved. It's Fine To Have Good Appetite, Digestion and Perfect Health. COMMON SENSE SAYS IT'S PRACTICAL WAY When a person's stomach is all out of order—food doesn't digest right—lays like a lump of lead for hours in the stomach fermenting and creating foul gases, bad breath and a bloated, short-winded condition, it is no wonder folks get no good from food and grow thin, pale, weak, irritable and headachy. Constipation, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, restless nights, stomach catarrh, gastritis, acute indigestion, heartburn, etc., arise eventually. Instead of troubles like the above, everybody this time of year should be feeling fine. Hearty appetite for good warmth-making food. Clear head, big appetite, sound digestion—Ah, man! Thousands have relieved themselves of such troubles, in this vicinity. You can buy numerous remedies supposed to "cure" such troubles, or with the aid of mints or pills help the weakened stomach work from day to day, but such makeshifts in chronic cases do little good. Maybe you are waiting for nature to throw off your troubles and in the meantime are dieting or otherwise avoiding pains, etc. The best way is nature's way. Nature can cure when science fails. The Creator put into each of us the power to throw off and drive out such troubles, and nature does it for young folks every day. They eat anything without fear. As we grow older, however, our systems weaken under modern strains and overdosing. You can probably remember how amazed you were the first time your stomach upset and gave you trouble. The next day it was all right, but gradually at more frequent intervals the same stomach trouble returned. Perhaps it seems like your stomach and digestion never work right any more. You are thin, dyspeptic, nervous and irritable. You cannot eat many favorite dishes at all. Your weakened, upset system cannot get nourishment enough from what you do eat, much less throw off the trouble. Do just what you would do if getting over a long wasting illness. Drop in at the drug store and buy yourself the most powerful, up-to-date tonic money can buy. Build up your disease-resisting vitality. Put yourself back in the pink of condition. Tone up the system. Such folks have poor digestion and poor appetite. They take a nutritive, reconstructive tonic and soon nature gets another fresh start and a foothold. Away go those old troubles and back come appetite, digestion, sound sleep. clear eyes, big meals. So instead of monkeying with your stomach, go deeper. Soon as you are good and strong again old mother nature can throw off such troubles like water off a duck's back. Then you get complete relief, permanent relief. Several folks once troubled with such ailments tell how easy it is to drive away such worries in the articles on the right. Read them. They took Earle's Hypo-Cod, a new, more modern and powerful reconstructive, nutrient tonic, because it does the work much sooner and is nice tasting. It agrees with a weakened stomach. Read what they say on the right. Hypo-Cod bears the name of the nationally known Earle Chemical Company, which is a guarantee of finest quality in medicine. The cost of a couple bottles at the nearest drug store is trifling compared with results. Read what actual users say on the right. CHESTER BROOK NEWS.

This time they have lynched a colored man on mere suspicion TOOK HYPO-COD—STOMACH WORKS FINE—GAINED WEIGHT—INDIGESTION TROUBLES GONE—APPETITE IS DANDY IT STOPPED MY TROUBLES EASY I Had Constipation—Was Troubled With Piles and Upset Stomach. "I was in a nervous, rundown condition and had actually lost weight. My stomach was often upset and gave me trouble. Constipation and piles added to my misery, so I took Hypo-Cod because I'd heard it was a fine system builder; and it surely is. I gained eight pounds, and both constipation and stomach trouble have disappeared. It surely did me a lot of good and stopped my troubles easy; so I gladly recommend Hypo-Cod to everybody," writes Thomas Perone, Woodburn, D. C., 101·Rock, Creek Church road.

Build yourself up—strengthen the system so you can throw off such troubles and feel good all the time. Right at this season of the year it is dangerous to thus leave the system wide open to attack—as unwise as leaving the door open for burglar's at night.

Even the corner grocery was so amazed at the improvement I made in health and appearance after using a few bottles of Hypo-Cod that she said that last year she could have kissed the Bible that I wouldn't be living today, "declared James G. Skinker, 332 You St. N. W. It is fashionable for people with plenty of money to be always feeling bad and complaining. They can afford to be half sick and unable to work—but to most of us it is important that we feel in perfect health and be able to do a good day's work, and we don't want to come home too tired to see a movie now and then, either. Besides, sickness is expensive, and when a person's stomach goes wrong it upsets the whole system. That is why thousands of people here in Washington take Hypo-Cod. It is powerful enough to do the work—it costs very little compared with results and tastes nice and agrees with the stomach fine. You'll like Hypo-Cod.

Of course, they must find some pretext to lynch a "nigger." And as he is spending a short vacation in Florida, possibly the "good citizens" of Ocala, Fla., thought it very wise to pull off one of these hellish sports to show President-elect Harding how highly they appreciate his stay among them. And not only do they lynch while Mr. Harding is in the State, but they do it on the very day the Nation (excepting the State of Florida) is celebrating the birth of the sainted Abraham Lincoln. Mr. Harding should leave that God-forsaken State at once; and when he leaves he should shake the dust off his feet as a testimony against her. But we wouldn't advise him to utter a word against lynching before leaving there, for those barbarians might lynch him. Let him do his talking and actions when he gets in the White House, for he will have much to do to redeem the honor of this mighty Republic. Mr. Harding should hit lynching, and he should hit it hard. And the writer would be delighted to hand him that famous old "big stick" once used by Teddy Roosevelt. A more earnest fight against lynching in this country should be inaugurated as soon as President-elect Harding takes his seat. Lynching, which is a shameful disgrace to this country, should be crushed out at all hazard; for it is a lasting shame on America to allow such a thing to exist under the shadow of her flag. Built Me-Up So I Can Eat Anything. Never Have Pains Now. HYPO-COD IS A SPLENDID REMEDY "My system was broken down and out of order. I had a lot of trouble with a bad stomach and also pains in the lower-part of my back and in my sides which, after seeing four doctors and spending a lot of money, I wasn't able to get rid of. It was after all that loss of time and suffering that I read in the paper about Hypo-Cod and bought a bottle at the drug store. After taking Hypo-Cod a short while I'm able to eat anything now and the pains in my back and sides have all gone. I can keep food on my stomach now and honestly it did me so much good that I've told all my friends about Hypo-Cod," declared William Sims, 621 Third St. S. W., Washington, D. C. There is seldom anything radically wrong with us; we may weaken and become run down from overdoing or sickness, but that is no sign that the stomach, nerys, blood or kidneys are out of order. They are weakened, too, and probably all that is needed is a tonic. Everybody knows how weak and bad they feel after a wasting illness. A tonic soon fixes them up, however. It would be foolish to take some stomach medicine after sickness—it is just as absurd to take anything but a good tonic as a rule when you feel badly. Try this one time. Come down to the People's Drug Store nearest you. Get a couple of bottles of Earle's Hypo-Cod and a free box of tablets we give away to two bottle purchasers. Use Hypo-Cod and the tablets for a couple of weeks and watch the way Hypo-Cod builds and tones your whole system. You'll be delighted with Earle's Hypo-Cod.

TELLS WHY HE PRAISES TONIC "I suffered from a bad rundown condition for a year or more, and I was a complete wreck. Indigestion, liver and stomach trouble bothered me all the time nearly. I finally read about Hypo-Cod in the paper—got myself a bottle—and results were so good from that first bottle that I took five; and you can say for me now that Hypo-Cod is the real thing. I got double the results and have been wonderfully relieved by Hypo-Cod. I feel a good deal more active and supple now and get around so much better, too," writes Stanley Jackson, 147 N St. S. E. It doesn't make much difference whether a man works with his hands or his head—if he isn't feeling good he can't work well. When the stomach goes on a strike and weakens and falters, then your system is almost starved perhaps for want of nutriment. Surely it is wise to build yourself up when you feel like that. In such a condition you are apt to fall victim to winter diseases so prevalent at this time of year. Avoid such troubles, feel good and build yourself up.

Who's Who In Falls Church. In Floyd Evans the younger generation is well represented. This young man graduated from Armstrong Manual Training School with honors some years ago. Having mastered the fundamentals of forging and machine-shop work, he entered the Government service in the Navy Yard and, although handicapped as we all are where the American prejudice has sway, has successfully passed through apprenticeship and now holds quite a lucrative position in the Navy Yard service. Floyd believes in service, and while probably no human being serves entirely unselfishly, yet Floyd is so constituted that his greatest satisfaction seems to lie in relieving others of trouble and worry. For the school-house he has done much. A handsome unabridged dictionary, a school bell and a beautiful flag he has given. For his church he is equally solicitous and many are the services unheralded that he has rendered. His, home on Shreve street has lately been lighted by electricity, and his lights shine abroad to cheer a lonely thoroughfare. Best of all, he is still blissfully unconscious of matrimonial felicity—a fact that fond mothers of several daughters cherish with faith and hope MALONES IN TOWN. Mr. Aaron P.

SHEPARD, DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA PUBLIC MEN AND THINGS. By the Sage of the Potomac. I am wondering, deep down in my pulmonary valves, just how Bill Lewis will tackle that speech of Calvin Coolidge delivered before the colored people at Atlanta, Ga. Calvin, whom we always believed, and for whom we took Howard's one-time football star's word for it, was all wool and a yard wide, told the migratory sons of Ham down in Atlanta that the white folks down there, who appropriate as much as 54 cents per capita per year for the education of colored children and then lynch them as soon as they reach maturity, were the "bestest" friends they had in all the wide, wide world. Whenever, since the days of the late and lamented Rutherford P. Hayes, I hear of a Northern white man elected to national office go South and coil himself up in a Southern bed, and put his feet under a Southerner's dining table, I cannot help but recall those plaintive, sad, wailing lines in Moore's "Lala Rook," "I never loved a tree or flower but what it was first to fade and die." With both Harding and Coolidge being feasted, feted and dined by the suppressors of the poor descendants of Ham, we can well ask: "Watchman, what of the night?" Now, my dear old Billie Lewis, please kinder take the "cool" out of Coolidge by explaining what Calvin really meant when he told the derelicts down in lynching Georgia that the people who lynch and burn them are their best friends. When the "committee" next meets, Bill, run over to Washington and ease our minds on your old classmate, Calvin Coolidge. I observed by Link Johnson's interview in a Georgia paper—the Atlanta Constitution—that he will largely control the Georgia patronage, and that he said: "I do not know that I shall accept a Government position." Now, take it from "yours truly," who has scanned the horizon, lifted the veil that hides the future and has carried in his pocket for years the left hind foot of a rabbit killed in a graveyard in the dark of the moon, Link will not "largely" or meagerly control the patronage of Georgia. The age of miracles passed into inocuous desuitude "immedjitly" after the Lowly Nazarene quit this mundane sphere, and it would be a renaissance of miracles did this coming administration permit a cross between a love-lorn Cherokee Indian, an unhallowed white person and a "gentleman of color," like Henry Lincoln, to control white patronage in Georgia. There ain't no such animal. And, further, take it from me, salt it down, pickle it and memorize it, if Link don't "accept a Government position" it will be because Warrrn G. didn't recognize, favorably, his application. And, further, take it from this promulgator of oddities, facts and fancies, that if Link does take a Government position he will give up, resign from the national committeemanship for Georgia. That will be the price of the position. After it is all over with and done for --- TERM OPENS SEPTEMBER 21, 1920 For further information and Catalog, address just enunciate to the populace of this reviving municipality that the Sage of the Potomac "dun-told you." While dissertating on Lincoln Johnson, his ambitions, aspirations and speculations, I want to commend Henry L. for that hot, right-out-of-the-oven interview he handed out some time ago, on reaching dear old Atlanta, regarding the scheme of some white Southerners to "purchase" patronage with a ten-thousand-dollar bill—just one thousand more than the Lowden people appraised Lincoln at. Occasionally this old vox populi is called upto to patronize, and when we have an opportunity to commend we do it with 100 per cent pure graciousness. We commend you, Henry Lincoln, for what you say about fighting to secure an anti-lynch law and about insisting that "competent Negro men and women be employed as clerks, messengers and so on in the larger cities, such as collectors of internal revenue and in the first-class post-offices." Stick to it, even though you do not realize your objective. And if you will decline to hold office yourself, buckle down to the practice of law, for which you are so ably equipped, hold on to that national committeehip and continue to fight for equitable Negro representation, you will establish a laison that will function like a brand-new carbureter on a Fierce Sparrow car. My old college chum and connoisseur of deleted vintages, Charley Hall, is now engaged in writing specials to a New York paper that caters to a "tarbloid" variety of readers.

There are few, if any, precedents in the long annals of the world for events as we are having them today and as we have had them for the past five years. It is therefore up to all who are on the stage of action to have open minds and lofty visions, ready for whatever the allusive Providence may have in store for us in the future which is before us. Certainly the future can have in it no problems affecting the nations of the world and human existence in general that are not contemplated in the words of the Christ, who said: "As ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them." Here, and here alone, is the secret of the future success of the nations of the world. Ignore these great principles and continue on in wars and rumors of wars and go down in misery, confusion and death. Accept these injunctions and live in peace, happiness and everlasting success and prosperity. ARCHBISHOP DOUGHERTY TO GET A RED CAP.

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.

Also for sale at my store, 1728 Seventh street northwest, Washington, D. C. Editor S: W. Advocate. My Dear Dr. King: It is altogether fitting that you should get tidings from us as we sail across the mighty deep on business for our King. Knowing full well your interest in our cause and believing that our friends at home and the church at the home base are all following us with their prayers, it therefore becomes a pleasure to say just a word of greeting to the home land and friends through our dear old Southwestern and its editor, whose heart beats in unison with our own. Our party, consisting of Bishop and Mrs. M. W. Clair, Mr. Cyril Henry, an agriculturist sent out by the board; Miss Mattie Mae Banks and Miss Clarissa Gooding, two missionaries under the Baptist board, together with the writer, sailed from New York NINE—Bee hrd mr hr rd City on the steamship "Egba." Our steamer went to Newport News, Va., reaching that port on Friday night, December 17, and remained there for three days for the purpose of coaling. Tuesday morning, December 21, the ship weighed anchor and we slipped from the docks at Newport, News, guided by a pilot who directed our course into the open sea, leaving our ship about 10 o'clock in the morning, while our party and the crew looked off and gazed for the last time on the shores of the Old Dominion, while our ship, with its ponderous engines, pushed out into the unknown deep; and by nightfall nothing could be seen but the sea and sky. Our voyage thus far has been uneventful and exceedingly pleasant. No storm or rough sea has been encountered and the skies have been brilliant with the sun by day and bedecked with the stars by night. The Bishop has been in perfect trim from the start to the present moment. Mrs. Clair has stood the trip remarkably well for her first experience. Our party has been the very life and spiritual communion of the voyage. The captain and the entire crew of the ship have entered heartily into all that makes for our comfort and happiness. Our morning devotions, led by Bishop Clair, have been seasons of great spiritual uplift to us all and have made a profound impression on the ship's crew for good. With bright hopes for the future and profound faith in God, and in the wisdom of the church's choice of our Episcopal head for Liberian Methodism, I am. Yours for African redemption, JOHN H. REED.

RALLY OF THE ASBURY M. E. CHURCH. We have been deeply gatified at the wonderful success which has attended the efforts put forth by many of our large churches to clear off indebtedness. Recently the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, through a well-directed rally, lifted every dollar of its heavy indebtedness and freed that membership of the heavy burden which has so long pressed heavily upon it. But we wish here to direct special attention to the $37,000 rally which is now on at Asbury M. E. Church. These good people are working as never before to raise every dollar of its indebtedness. The rally will have its final home-stretch on Friday night, February 25, 1921. May be not most earnestly urge upon the entire city and community to help in this great rally? There is no more worthy church and congregation in this city than is old Asbury under the strong and aggressive leadership of the Rev. Julius S. Carroll. We are proud to say that Asbury is actually doing a great work and has a strong hold upon the young people of the church. The Epworth League is a live and aggressive organization in the church, and the young men and women of the church are actually being trained for efficient service for the race. We wish the Rev. Mr. Carroll abundant success in the approaching rally and sincerely hope that the community in general will feel called upon to take some practical and telling part in the rally. Wm. W.

TO QUARTER OF MILLION BEFORE NEXT JUNE James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced that the association was about to enter upon a drive to increase its membership to 250,000 before next June. In making the announcement Mr. Johnson made public the fighting program which the association had adopted for the coming year. Mr. Johnson's statement follows: "A quarter of a million people is a force which cannot be ignored. Neither Congress, nor the oppressors of colored labor in the South, nor the newspapers, can ignore a quarter of a million colored and white people, determined that the Negro shall be given in the United States what the federal Constitution promises, to every man irrespective of race or color. With a totally inadequate membership the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has already undertaken and carried to a successful conclusion tasks of the first magnitude. The brutal invasion and the exploitation of Haiti was brought before the bar of judgement not only of Americans but of the civilized world. Anti-lynching legislation has been introduced, at the instance of this association, in both houses of Congress. The disfranchisement of colored people has been carried before the Census Committee of the House of Representatives. A campaign initiated against the Ku Klux Klan by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has met with the endorsement and support of labor unions in New York and elsewhere. Robert L. Hill, charged with leading the colored farmers in Arkansas, was defended in court and freed and the cases of his companions carried to the state supreme court of Arkansas which twice reversed their convictions. "These are only a few of the activities of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in 1920. They will be extended and given greater power as the membership increases. The association has no hesitation in making a country-wide appeal for co-operation and support, and for a quarter of a million members or more next June, in behalf of the following programme for 1921... 1. Anti-Lynching legislation by Congress. 2. Abolition of Segregation in the departments at Washington. 3. Enfranchisement of the Negro in the South or reduction of southern representation, if necessary. 4. Restoration of Haitian Independence and Reparation, as far as possible, for wrongs committed there by the American administration, through Congressional investigation of both military and civil acts of the American Occupation. 5. Presentation to the New President of a mammoth petition of say, 100,000, bona-fide signers, collected by the various branches, requesting the pardon of the soldiers of the 24th Infantry imprisoned at Leavenworth on the charge of rioting at Houston, Texas. 6. The Abolition of Jim Crow Cars in interstate traffic. 7. Treatment of Colored Men in the Navy; where once many ratings as noncommissioned officers were held by Negroes, now colored men can enlist only as mess boys, in other words, as servants. 8.
