The Greatest Need
VOL. XLI NO. 40
Opportunities For Improvement
AMERICA'S NEED—DISCIPLINE.
Greatest Of Opportunities Is Offered the Incoming Republican Administration.
Strange, incongruous, and even paradoxical as it may seem offhand, it is undeniably true that democracy's greatest need today is discipline. Liberty needs regulation; freedom must meet restraint. These are the social obligations imposed upon free men living under a free governmental organization.
At the outset, discipline must be re-established in the homes and around the hearthstones of these our free families. In this day of complex modern social organization, in this day of intricate and puzzling economic structure, in this day when mothers are often no longer mothers but are pawns in the pitiless game of dollarchasing, in this time when multifarious extra-agencies of pleasure tend to draw away the children from homes to the outside influences, often of questionable value, a hearkening back to some of the simplicities and elemental values of home life are absolutely essential.
That discipline of the home which is herein referred to is not simply the theory of punishment and reward. It is rather the establishment of those habits and the fostering of those attitudes and reactions that will make for character and substantiality. Where are those regular rising hours, those regular meal periods, those regular devotional exercises—in short, that regimen of regularity, including both healthful work and play tilne, that characterized our earlier days? Gone; we fear; but if we are to succeed, the basis for their recall must be laid.
Again, American public education is verging too much to the free elective, catch-as-catch-can, sensational, bizarre type of procedure. We have lost some of those fundamental regularities that in their simple, homespun method made first of all citizens—men and women—not devotees to cults and isms; not ne'er-de-well faddists, not impossible incompetents. This tendency, too, must be rectified.
Over above the phases just enunciated looms the need of the body politic in general, economic and social reactions.
Even labor's most sanguine friends, among whom is The Bee, must say that the exaggerated, hold-up, unbalanced, unreasonable attitude that neurotic post-war conditions have produced among laboring groups and organizations shows a need for disciplining on the side of the worker. During the last quarter of a century much of justice and advantage has been gained by the wage-earner of America; but unless it is to slay the goose of accomplishments—the goose that has been laying the golden eggs of opportunity—labor must become disciplined, and both it and its organization must be regulated. America resents hold-up methods.
To capital it must be said, too, that there is much lack of disciplining and of restraint on its side. Mere desire for a speedy return to normalcy by moneyed interests must not make them so foolishly precipitate that they expect not to consider other elements and factors in the process of adjustment, which of necessity must be gradual. Then again, labor must be looked on as human—not as chattel. Capital must not only live, but must seek to let live.
Finally, there must come to the group consciousness of America at large a sense of disciplining and of regularity in dealing both with ideas not favorably regarded by the group, and with criminals who are awaiting trial or punishment.
Just last week, so the news goes, Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard was near mobbing at the hands of a group in Cincinnati because of certain ideas displeasing to the people at large, which he entertained in reference to pacificism. Shades of his grandfather, William Lloyd Garrison! To what has the restraining sense of America come again! This tendency must be supplanted by the substitution of a group consciousness for discipline and fair-play reactions.
Then again, this heinous phase of mob spirit predicated wholly and solely upon racial antipathy—hatred for America's colored yeomanry—must be dislodged, and the disciplined and controlled group reaction that regards ultimate public safety and final democratic achievement and progress as dependent upon a conception of justice as an abstract quality must be substituted. Particularly—although not wholly—must this be effected in the South.
In conclusion, The Bee wishes to say that the phases herein enunciated are not separate, but are all intimately related and interdependent. The social disorders of one great body politic are intimately interwoven in the woof and warp of our common existence, and must be looked upon as such in any constructive efforts to be made.
Truly the incoming Harding administration has a challenge worthy of its mettle in these abtruse problems. Our national life, by virtue of its nature and by virtue of the point of complexity which it has reached in its democratic unfolding, demands that legislation of a broader and constructive social type be enacted. Nor does this

necessarily, mean legislation that is wholly repressive. The discipline heretofore outlined is not a mere passive kind; it is of that broader, more active and more stimulating type; and it is to be effected by wise, careful, stimulating and effective lawmaking. Laws affecting labor and capital must not be alone compendiums of procedure as to wage regulation and adjustments and preparations of methods for settling disputes. These laws must have within them the power to effect the development and growth of a large and significant disciplinary and tolerant result in both labor and capital. They should be social prophylactics.
So also bills for mothers, bills for education, bills against lynching and the like must cease to be ridiculed and set aside for what many term more practical issues. America's need today is discipline; the realm of the new administration is primarily and fundamentally one dealing with the larger social order.
THE CHEWING GUM EVIL.
Editor The Bee:
This is a growing evil in all of our churches among young and old, especially among the females. They are often seen with gum in their mouths on the streets, in their homes and in the churches. What we want is a higher development, higher ideals and better morals.
Development, gradual growth, we need in our deportment and in our character. We need this growth because it makes us see things on a higher plane. We should strive each day to attain a higher attitude in life. To do this our vision must be open to the things about us. How many of us deplore the habit of using tobacco. How unbecoming it is, how unmanly, or how uncultured, you would say it seems, to see this act performed by such ones. So with chewing gum; it makes one look uncultured; seemingly their vision is low, their attainment is not for higher things. When we are chewing all the time our mind is inactive, our thinking faculty is not seeking higher ideals. We need to cultivate our minds daily that we may see things differently. Morals, duties in life. There are duties we all must perform in life, and such duties help us and help our fellowmen. Knowing this to be true, our performing these duties should be most intelligent—that is to say, should be worthy of imitating—so much so that the critic, with all his criticism, would be loud in his praise.
I hope Miss Gumchewers, as you read these lines, will ask yourselves one question. What benefit do I get from chewing gum? If you can answer it intelligently these columns will be open for your consideration.

YOUNG MEN'S IMMEDIATE RE
LIEF ASSOCIATION.
The anniversary of the Young Men's Immediate Relief Association was largely attended last Sunday evening at the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church. Rev. W. O. Carrington delivered a fine and impressive sermon which was enjoyed by all. Mr. Horace E. Barnett presented the founder, Mr. Alex. H. Brooks, a gold watch and chain for his long and faithful service, not only to the association, but spoke of his loyalty to all the young men of the race. Mr. William H. Shields, of the Department of Agriculture, presented Mr. Brooks with a gold ring as a remembrance from the employees of the department, and spoke of how Mr. Brooks had been assisting the employees for thirty-one years and hoped he may have a long and further useful life.
Mr. John Nicholas also spoke of Mr. Brooks as a useful and highly respected citizen. Mr. George W. Stewart also brought the appreciation of the Elder Men's Relief Association and spoke in glowing terms of the usefulness Mr. Brooks had rendered to his race at all times.
The solo rendered by Mr. J. Stanley Brooks, accompanied by his sister, Miss Florence A. Brooks, son and daughter of Mr. Brooks, was indeed a
rich and rare treat and was enjoyed by all. A movement is on foot whereby every young man and woman of the city will be called upon for a small donation of 10 cents for a general and public testimonial to Mr. Brooks for the timely interest he has devoted to all of our race in his public career.

SURPRISES FRENCH NATION.
Move To Protest Senagalese Troops On Rhine—Soldiers Complained Of By Germans Have Been Absent From Occupied Area For Better Than Six Months.
Paris, Feb. 21.—The French learn with surprise from their newspapers that a mass meeting, at Madison Square Garden is being planned to protest against the presence of French black troops on the Rhine.
The surprise is based on the fact that there are no French black troops on the Rhine. They were withdrawn last June and half were sent to Africa and half to Syria to join General Georgnaud's army.
In their dispatches the French papers make a hero of Colonel Galbraith, head of the American Legion, for telling Von Mach, organizer of the meeting, to "go to hell" when he sought Galbraith's aid in his project.
But what worries the French is that German propaganda can go so far in New York as to organize such a meeting for such a purpose.
After the armistice, the French sent to the Rhine in their forces of occupation some four regiments of Senagaleese troops. It was against these troops that most of the German complaints were made. In all their propaganda against French by the Germans, pictures of the Senagaleese were used.
Because of the impression produced on other countries, the French War Department named a commission to investigate the charges against the French non-European troops.
There remain several regiments of Moroccans on the Rhine, but the War Department states the behavior of these troops is fully up to the standard. The Moroccans composed one of the most famous shock divisions of the French army and were put between the First and Second American Divisions at the attack on the south of Soissons.
The French War. Department says the Moroccans will be kept on the Rhine.
Officials of the French Government say they hope that American public opinion will not allow itself to be misled about the personnel of the French troops in the occupied territory.
MISSISSIPPI "Y" WORK IN COL- ORED SCHOOLS.
The State Y, M. C. A. of Mississippi is organizing students in the colored schools with marked success. Study classes and athletic clubs are being formed, and "Christian service and living" are the club watchwords. The "Y's" of the white agricultural schools have become interested and are assisting in developing athletics in the country colored schools of their several districts. The results are reported as excellent for the boys of both races.

State used exclusively by persons of
the race other than that of the women

‘the Second Baptist Choir, the full
-membership of the choir, the director,
‘the pastor and Mrs. Emma Lee Wil-

nificent banquet and reception. The
air was balmy, the stars were twin-
kling, the moon was. white (with, sil-
tery hue basking in the blue, and’ the
voices of happy “and cheerful souls
were mingling in glee and keen an-
ticipation of the pleasantries of the
evening, while sweet strains filled the
fragrant’ air fromi- flowered pots and
vintage green’ in every empty space
therein. . .
‘Twas a happy festful period for
once-in the life of this choir, newly or-
ganized under the shrewd hand of its
director, Prof. Wellington A, Adams,
‘who so-adeptly guided the festivities
of the evening’ afid brought safely to
harbor the “Ship, of Song.” The even-
‘ing was far spent when the call to:
banquet was -givén ‘by, the president,
and all wended their way to-the “Tem-
ple of Food” below, where a daintily
laden table: greeted their’ eyes, “Mr.

The peace of the world will never be established until it is restored to the individual countries, which are only units of the mighty whole. It will never reign in the countries until the dove of peace abides in every village and hamlet composing them. In these centers of discord there are many opposing elements—not the least among them is capital and labor. Capital arrayed on the one side, abounding in selfishness; labor on the other side, in many instances in arrogant demands. The result of the mighty conflict which arises between them is that the public is made the goat. It is burdened with high prices, high taxes and other exorbitant demands which

it finds difficult to meet. This condition saps the soul of happiness from every community in the world where it exists, creates discord, and thus destroys the peace of the world. To remedy this condition, the word needs discipline. America needs discipline to meet all of its unlawful evils. Discipline must be established in the home around the family hearthstone. This is where civilization began.
The question as to mixed or unmixed schools is gradually forcing itself to the front, and must sooner or later claim the serious attention of the entire Nation. In many great centers throughout our country, where there are mixed schools, we find that there is a sharp division of sentiment for and against the mixed schools. How this question would be decided were it submitted to the people of the country is exceedingly difficult to determine. There are those who honestly feel that the mixed school, wherever it exists, is a positive hindrance to the colored people and, on the other hand, there are other colored people who, with equal candor and honesty, clamor for the mixed schools and believe them to be a positive advantage to the race. Let all do their level best to make the schools as they are what they ought to be, thus preparing the race to rise up and take that high place which it is possible for it to take among the people and nations of the world.
Elsewhere in The Bee is an article entitled "Would Impeach Any Sheriff Who Lets Prisoner Be Taken." This is a commendable move, made by the Junior Chamber of Commerce of Birmingham, Ala. We think that it would be wise for the well-thinking white people in other States of the South to follow suit. This would do much for the reconstruction of that section of the country.
We wish to thank the many friends of the late editor of The Bee and the generous public for the prompt and ready support to the continued life of The Bee. The promptness with which you came to the office, either to renew your subscriptions or to be a new subscriber, the new agencies opening up, and the ready payment for advertisements and other matter causes us to know that you desire that The Bee continue to live. Not the least among these callers at The Bee office was an old friend of the late editor, Mr. George A. Carter, 600 $ \frac{4}{2} $ street southwest. Mr. Carter has been a subscriber to the paper for nearly thirty-five years and has the distinction of ranking as its second oldest subscriber.
One of the things which delays the progress of the world's peace is the continued propaganda circulated about the darker races of the world, particularly the colored race of America. The N. A. A. C. P. is working to crush out this propaganda. If other organizations and right thinking individuals of all races seek to do the same, The Bee is sure that this will help materially to bring about the proper adjustment of affairs to insure both domestic and foreign tranquillity:

Another name has been added to the already lengthy list for Federal positions under the Harding administration. The Business Men's Exchange of. Baltimore, Md., has indorsed Mr. William L. Fitzgerald for a Federal appointment. The hope of the Business Men's Exchange in landing a job for Mr. Fitzgerald is based on the fact that Maryland will have two Republican Senators whose recommendations no doubt will go a long way.
I wonder what is being done on the several murder cases which are on the "waiting list"? There seems to be nothing. Some of these cases now seem to be ancient history. Is it that the detective force is becoming less effective, or that the perpetrators of these dastardly crimes are becoming more efficient? Doubtless, if, Harry Beckley had been on the job some of these mysteries would have been solved. Why not give him another trial? All of us make mistakes at times.
Preisdent-elect Harding has at least named two men for his Cabinet, Mr. Charles Evans Hughes has been named as Secretary of State, and Mr. Harry M. Daugherty has been named as Attorney General. I suppose, after the Cabinet has been filled, the "Colored-American Cabinet" will receive the next attention, namely, the Register of the Treasury, Recorder of Deeds, Auditor for the Navy Department, etc. The list of applicants for positions in this Cabinet is steadily on the increase, and consequently there must be several "trial heats" run before the "final." My friend Malone, of St. Louis fame, will surely run the "final."
AT THE THEATRES.
Washington theatre lovers donned their finest livery in attendance at the reopening of the Howard Theatre, which has been closed to undergo necessary repairs.
The beautiful attire of the lads and lassies corresponded well with the new dress worn by the theatre. Everywhere the eye rests are seen the touches of Manager Vincent Thomas' artistic taste. New and expensive carpets have been stretched up and down the aisles; the walls refrescoed and redecorated with here and there of gold. The electric lights have been regilded and increased in brilliancy. These changes cause the popular playhouse to look like a new one.
I visited the Howard Theatre last Monday night, the night of the grand reopening. If I had not known that it was the Howard Theatre, I could never have told by looking at it. Manager Vincent Thomas needs to be congratulated on the great improvement that has been made in the appearance of the interior. After the show I stopped in one of our popular cafes, and while there my friend F. W. came in. Calling the waiter aside, he said: "Got any Scotch?" "Sure," said the waiter, who went out and returned with a bowl of oatmeal. F. W., you can surely get it if you have the money.
The Washington public can truly boast of some fine places of amusement—places where they can go and spend an evening in instructive pleasure unmolested. Noteworthy among these places are the Hiawatha, Foraker, Dunbar, S. H. Dudley, Mid-City and the Howard Theatres. The public shows its appreciation to the splendid management of these houses by packing them nightly to their capacity.
The fashion show on Friday night at the Coliseum brought out some mighty fine costumes. The costliness of some was very apparent, some approaching the thousand-dollar mark. But some of the gowns on the side-lines compared most favorably with those in the show. Why was not my friend Howard, of haberdashery fame, given larger patronage in the making of these gowns? Just pass by his window and see if his display does not compare most favorably with that of our F and G street stores. Even last Christmas, my friend James C. bought a coat for his madam from Howard which was more than $100

Roland Hayes.
‘Roland ;Hayes, the ‘distinguished
colored tenor, product of the Hub-
bard studios in Boston, has been sing-
ing in Europe lately with tremendous
success. After several appearances.in
London, the New Age, an English
periodical, commented on Mr. Hayes’
art as follows: .
“Roland Hayes; second discovery of
the season, which now promises to be
of some interest. Rhythm sense: un-
surpassed by anyorie now singing. in
London. , It is not necessary to have
a book of the words. Whether’ Eng-
lish, .French or: Italian, Mr. Hayes
enunciates each one go that ‘the hearer
‘can understand it. -Audience’s enthis-
siasm.amply deserved: Mr, Hayes has
a beautiful, voice; but’ there are other
good voices. The distinction’ of per-
“formance is given by the clear presen-
tation of the words, the rhythmic va-
lidity,..the uttér sincerity of feeling,
which saved even’ the songs-of me-
diocre. composers from their. inherent
banality.. I can at the moment think,
of no’ singer who'employs so.many
different qualities of voice, from: op-
‘eratic delivery to-a singing which is
almost ‘speech, as, for example, in
Lawrence Dunbar's ‘Deathbed .Poeni,’
It ‘goes without saying, that the Ne-
gro spirituals fijled. the audience: with
enthusiasm, In every, song Mr. Hayes
moves from a main concept. The
meaning of. the poem is in. him, and
the presentation is a unit.- It isa
considered. and proportioned, expres
sion. While Hayes’ .great, advantage

3430 SEVENTH STREET NORTHWEST © :
Henry Lee Grant, and. the official or-
gan'of the National Association of
Colored Musicians, has made its .ap-
pearance:~ This magazine is destined
to. play a leading role for the colored
musician inthe music world if the
present standard of matter is a crite-
rion to judge by, to say the least. The
typography and mechanical make-up
of the magazine is poor, according to
present-day standards in magazine
publication, but it is no fault of the
editor, Mr. Grant, but of the printer
who handled it. The. material con-
tained in the February. issue ‘is. far
reaching and away above mpaewte
literary style, and it is bound ‘to. im-
‘prove with the proper support; and
‘that support should be forthcoming
from the locals throughout the coun-
‘try, and especially here in Washing-
ton. But Washington has failed to
take the lead in few things along any
racial enterprise line, and we shall
await with anxietythe verdict in this
case. The Music Master was the first
colored ‘musical magazine of the race
in the world,-and when it was first
published here it was laughed at and.
gained little support, or practically
none, comparatively speaking; but: it
made -a name for itself among both
racés, even if it isn’t alive at the pres-
ent time. In’many cases’ we learn to
appreciate a thing worth while tardi-
ly, indeed, long after its worth is fully
adjudged as posiessing merit... We
hope ‘the: Negro Musician may live to
awaken the duller sensibilities of our
race musicians and ‘music lovers, as
it has a wide field for operation and
service, and it is well planned and
wneatly arranged in‘ its content matter
‘and its scope is broad, indeed. Why
not support it?

. DR. T, THEO PARKER ae TR
Osteopath and Oculist
x - 1826. Ninth Street Northwest - eS
-DR. PARKER uses this table in his. office in treating the spine and
merves. It is something entirely. new and wonderful in construction. Its
“aniversal joint” conforms with.the principles of anatomy and physiolegy.of
the spinal joints and is remarkably adapted to maiiipulative treatment ef 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
end parts of the ‘body, it will readily be understood that heaith and strength,
depend largely on the condition of the spine, and. spinal cord: “Strain, weak-
ness, irregular or abdormal condition of arty 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 orgarfs. Osteopathic treatment
corrects the spinal troubles, releases the cord. and nerves, regulates the cir-
culation, strengthens .the ‘organs, and Nature does-the rest. Dr. Parker
pays special attention to cases of female troubles and troubles of the_cyes.

A cable message from Monrovia, Liberia, to Ernest Lyon, Liberian consul general in the United States, instructs him of the departure of the Liberian Commission for Washington, on a diplomatic errand. The commission is composed of President C. D. B. King, associate justice of the Supreme Court; F. E. R. Johnson and former Secretary of the Treasury John L. Morris. It will reach this country about the middle of February. Their mission will give them an opportunity to witness, as distinguished guests, the inauguration of President-elect Harding. Mr. Lyon was in conference last week with the State Department arranging details consequent upon the arrival of the commission. In this conference the loan proposals will be further discussed, and all misunderstanding will be removed in order to render available the credit of $5,000,000 established by the U. S. Treasury Department.

These Are Not Patent Medicines
It is encouraging to know that no stone is being left unturned by the ladies and temperance workers of this church to keep the cause of temperance alive and constantly to the front. This is as it should be. Our zeal should know no decline; now that we have prohibition in the Constitution of the Nation. It should be the pride of all good law-abiding people to see that prohibition actually prohibits in the truest sense of the word. The idea that the law is now on the statute books and therefore we have nothing further to do, must have no place in our minds.
The meeting was presided over by Mrs. G. V. C. Williams, the ever-vigilant president, who in a most choice and fitting, address introduced the principal speaker of the occasion, Judge Sellers.
WOULD IMPEACH ANY
SHERIFF WHO LETS
PRISONER BE TAKEN
Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 23.—The Junior Chamber of Commerce directors have adopted a resolution calling for the impeachment of a sheriff who allows a prisoner in his custody to be taken from him by a mob. They will urge that a bill making this the law be adopted by the legislature at its next session.
According to the proposed bill, the taking of a prisoner from a sheriff's custody will automatically cause his impeachment, and to escape being ousted from office, the accused would be obliged to prove that he had taken every possible safeguard to prevent the action of the mob.
The bill would make the taking of a prisoner from a sheriff's charge. prima facie evidence of his failure to perform his duty.

“The kidneys play a most import-
ent :part in ‘causing premature old
age and death—the more injurious
the poisons passing through the kid-
neys the sooner comes decay”—so
gays a distinguished physician, who:
further advises all. people who are
past thirty to presérve the. vitality
of. the kidneys and free the blood
from poisonous .elements, such as
uric acid—to drink plenty of pure
water—sweat some every day. and
take “An-uric” (antiuric acid) before
meals, %
This “Anuric” ig put up in tablet
form, and can be obtained at ‘almost
any drug store. For that backache,
lumbago, rheumatism, “rusty” joints,
swollen feet or hands, due to uric
acid in the blood, “Anurie” quickly
dissolves the uric acid.. It was dis-
