The World's Unrest Constructive Brotherhood The unrest of the world today is passing strange. The existing social order is everywhere more or less violently disturbed. It may be affirmed with certainty that traces of sedition and revolution silent and subtle, but oftener they are attended by clamor and excitement. The general commotion is visible in every city through which a traveler passes. Crimes of violence are reported vastly increased. Meetings in which radicals make incendiary speeches abound. Appeals to passion, prejudice and hate receive thunderous applause. And everywhere the class, group, racial or national consciousness is expressed with more or less of force and violence. Amidst all this men of insight can read the signs which mark the coming of a new day. If the time of birth is one of pain, that of rebirth is a time of agony. The joy of life that comes is in proportion to the suffering of change into a new order. Although one would think, in view of the din and strife of the world; that a protagonist of peace would receive no attentive ear, experience proves quite the contrary. North and South, East and West, among people of all races, colors and creeds, those who have a real message can secure a hearing today. The closing of some doors operates automatically to open many others. The still small voice, overwhelmed for a while by greed, rapacity, passion and prejudice, again thrills men's souls when they hear the call of the Kingdom. Even the most rabid of radicals and the narrowest of dogmatists have said: "That is very wonderful and beautiful! If we could only get men to see it!" It is to be confident—steadfast in hope! When the candles of men are blown out by the storms of hate, rioting and bloodshed, they will grope through the darkness of grief and discover the Sun of Truth. The children of Israel today must be refined in the wilderness of pain before they approach the threshold of universal peace. Zechariah, ancient Jewish prophet, thus visualized the day in which we live: "And it shall come to pass that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die, but the third shall be left therein. And I shall bring the third part through the fire and will refine them as silver, is refined and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name and I will hear them. I will say, 'It is holy; and they shall say, 'The Lord is my God.'" The light of freedom and brotherhood now appears throughout the South, as elsewhere, bringing hope and joy to both races and all religions. During a stay in New Orleans, the writer was asked to address an audience of colored people whose object was the raising of a thousand dollars as a hero fund for two white men. The latter, by risking their lives one stormy night on the lake, had saved eleven colored people from watery graves. In the same gathering, a colored hero was introduced. He had won fame by saving two white women, one of them a cripple, from robbery and murder. The spirit of love and service was in this meeting, and those who took part were enthusiastic and happy. Good deeds find a response in all hearts, regardless of race and color. Another hopeful sign is the growth in numbers and influence of the Southern whites who are truly interested in the welfare of colored Americans. Years ago such spirits were timid and rare. But now throughout the South inter-racial committees are actively at work with a view to harmonious relations. The flower and chivalry of the white South in these conferences meet the best brains and noblest hearts among the colored. Together they plan, work and pray to remove causes of friction and discord. No doubt the devil sneers at these efforts, but good is done notwithstanding. Leading educators have organized what is known as the University Commission. Sociological classes in the leading institutions of the South now study, sympathetically and helpfully, what is known as the race problem. Prejudice and hate are discouraged among these students. The plan is to extend these courses as soon as possible to the high schools of the South. The inter-racial committees seek economic justice for the colored American, better housing conditions, sanitary, living, better schools, suppression of mob violence, improvement in traveling facilities, a less emotional and more practical religion. Besides the universities and inter-racial committees, other organizations that are actively molding sentiment and helping with this work are the Urban League, the Y. M. C. A., Federation of Women's Clubs, city and State, the governors and legislators of States and the more progressive among the clergy. Of the last named, many support the old order of force and violence. As most of the people at this time follow them, the danger is that in the clash which seems inevitable they will perish together. In one of the Southern communities we read of a colored bishop who goes about his Episcopal duties armed with a gun, vowing that he will shoot if anyone pesters him. On the other side of the racial line, the illustrious Colonizer and imperial wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, is VOL. XLI NO. 43 The Washington Bee By Louis G. Gregory. WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY. MA CH19, 1921 also a preacher. Perhaps these are extreme cases. But they may some day illustrate what happens to the people when their prophets have no vision. They that appeal to the sword perish by the sword more largely today than ever before in the world's history. But the blessed peace-makers, the children of the Promised One, with shining faces and loving hearts, brighten and cheer their surroundings with noble words and kind deeds. They foment no hatred, but plant the flowers of love. Their sphere of influence, in reality, will ever widen and the fruits of their deeds will more and more gloriously appear in future cycles and ages. On a higher plane than even these are those little groups of earnest truth-seekers now scattered throughout the Nation—North, East, South and West—who have discovered the risen sun and the light of an endless day. These souls are entirely free from the superstitions of the past and the prejudices which belong to the world of nature. They see one God, one universal truth and one humanity. They are adorned with the garment of courtesy and the lost virtue of humility. Among them arrogance is strange! them arrogance is strange! "Ye are all the leaves of one true and the fruits of one branch." This is a universal vision. "O children of men! Do you know why we have created ye all from the same clay? That no one should glorify himself over the others. Since we have created you all from the same substance, ye must be as one soul, walking with the same feet, eating with one mouth and living in one land, that ye may manifest with your being and by your deeds and actions the signs of unity and the spirit of oneness. This is my counsel to you, O people of lights. Therefore, follow it, that ye may attain the fruits of holiness from the tree of might and power." By Direction of the Board of Directors, Whitelaw Apartment House Company, Inc. It has been and is now being rumored that The Whitelaw Apartment House Company, Inc., is arranging to erect a hotel apartment at Atlantic City, N. J. This is not true. The hotel at Atlantic City, N. J., will be erected by another company, with which the Whitelaw Apartment House Company has no financial interest whatever. It has been, is now, and shall ever be the high aim of the Whitelaw Apartment House Company to follow an intensive constructive policy, acquiring and developing property in the District of Columbia only. A few weeks ago the officers of this company thought it wise to have its properties appraised in order to determine the true valuation. This was done by the District Appraisers, the result of which was satisfactory and enlightening. As soon as the unsettled building conditions that exist throughout the country abates the company expects to begin further building operations, and to this end urges all stockholders to continue their full support. The Whitelaw Apartment House Com Prof. Harry H. Jones, Asst. Principal, Lincoln High School, Wheeling, W. Va. My dear Prof. Jones: Happily for us both, it will not be necessary for me to attempt any argument to make you understand how very much I appreciate your letter of the 10th instant. Your letter offers hearty congratulations on my election to the secretaryship of the School of Law, Howard University; it also refers to certain alleged drastic changes which have taken place in the law school, mentions a species of muttering that has come to your attention, and you ask me to tell you just what has been done, with a word or two, on the significance of the moves made or contemplated. The source of your felicitations is all the assurance one could ever need as to their sincerity, and I accept them in the spirit in which I know they are tendered. "The Howard Forward Movement" Have you heard those words before? If not, let me urge you to take them in funy now, for in them is to be found all the enotation, all the connotation, all the significance of everything that has been done or even planned in the way of change not only in the school of law but in Howard University as a whole. Though not interested as a teacher of law, nevertheless as an educator, you are doubtless aware in a general way of the effort The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching has been making for years to bring together the two "poles of thought" in the field of legal education as represented by the American Bar Association on the one hand and the Association of American Law Schools on the other. The effort has not been successful; though, of course, progress has been made. Meanwhile in view of the hostility of the American Bar Association toward our group, manifestly the destiny of the School of Law at Howard lay in making common cause with the Association of American Law Schools. Now here is what happened: Dr. Leighton, known and beloved from coast to coast as "The Grand-Old Man of the Law School," having served for 40 years, and having expressed a desire to be relieved of his duties, was made Dean Emeritus. Prof. Mason N. Richardson, for 27 years a member of the faculty, a prince, than whom, to have recourse to the vernacular of the plain talkers, "a whiter man, never stepped into shoe leather," was made Dean. Profs. Hart and Richards, master teachers, remain to carry on the work they have excelled in, each in his own way, these many years. The same is true of Prof. Wilson and Prof. Cobb. Prof. Geo. F. Williams, son-in-law and law partner of the retiring dean, an alumnus of the School of Law in which he also taught for 27 years, asked to be relieved. To take the places of those relieved there came, Chas. S. Shreve, one of the leaders of the District of Columbia bar. There came also William L. Houston, an alumnus of the law school, who is looming up bigger and bigger as one of the representatives of our group in the business world. The secretaryship of the law school, vacant since the death of the late Geo. Collins, was conferred upon Yours. Truly, a member of the bar and constantly practicing both as an auditor of freight accounts in the Government service as well as privately after office hours. The late Frank Bundy passed from the Government to the secretaryship of the law school, I am told, and was notably successful. If it was well for his to do that, is it not equally well for me? The image provided is too blurry and pixelated to accurately recognize any text or content. It appears to be a blank or heavily distorted image. Therefore, no text can be extracted from it. Meanwhile, my friend, "The Howard Forward. Movement" is an accomplished cessful. If it was well for him to do not even be interrupted by the noise of cannons, journalistic or otherwise, baying the moon. Yours, with very high regard. JAMES C. WATERS, Jr. day last. The capacity. The subject-terfully handled discourse was Father Oles, wh The program appropriate mu After the c MRS. TUCKER DEAD. On last Monday, in the wee small hours of the morning, all that was mortal of Mrs. Martha E. Tucker, passed from labor to reward. The deceased had been in poor health for more than a year; consequently at the opening of school in September she sought and obtained retirement. Mrs. Tucker is from one of the oldest and best families of the District of Columbia. She was numbered among the successful principals of our schools, having been not only a teacher but a trainer. Her last duties as principal were performed at the John A. Logan School, where she was loved by the entire community. She is survived by her loving and faithful daughter, Miss Essie, a foster son and nephew, Mr. Luther Sadgwar. The funeral services were held at their Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church on Wednesday, in the presence of a host of friends. The floral tributes were numerous and beautiful. The outstanding one was a magnificent harp surmounted by a snowy white dove, from the supervisors, principals, and teachers of the 10th, 11th, and 12th divisions—Normal School No. 2, Armstrong Manual Training, Dunbar High School, O Street Vocational, Junior High School, and every special department connected with the schools. Heaven is not reached at a single bound, We build the ladder by which we rise From the lowly earth to the vaulted skies, And mount to its summit round by round. Such was the life of Mrs. Tucker—one of service. Mr. Eugene Clarke, principal of Normal School No. 2, lectured to the people of St. Augustine Parish on Tues day last. The house was filled to its capacity. The subject—Citizenship—was masterfully handled by Mr. Clarke. The discourse was highly complimented by Father Oles, who succeeded the speaker. The program was interspersed with appropriate music. After the exercises the orator of the evening, Mr. Clarke, was the recipient of the congratulations of his hearers. In reply to the inquiry of S. H. of Ohio, concerning the names of some of the most active women in the District of Columbia during the last campaign for the G. O. P., permit me to state that large work was done by the following women: Mrs. J. M. Layton, president of the Federation of Republican Women's Forums; Miss N. H. Burrows, secretary of the Republican Women's Forum. These two women visited a large number of the States and met the crowds at conventions, where they gave wonderful advice to their sister voters. The same is true of Mrs. Madre Marshall, who worked hard throughout the District of Columbia and the State of Virginia. Other notable workers among women in the District of Columbia during this campaign were: Misses E. A. Chase, R. E. Bell, Mildred Coleman, Mrs. Banks, Mrs. L. R. Clarke, Mrs. Leftwich, Mrs. Liston, Mrs. Gray, Miss E. Jockson, Miss Jeannette Carter, Mrs. M. A. Whitly, Mrs. R. B. Lacey, Mrs. M. W. Claire, Mrs. M. A. Parker, Mrs. I. M. Young, and others. COMPLETES COURSE. Ever since the death of the late Attorney Collins the position of Secretary of the Howard University Law School has been held with honor and dignity by Miss Ollie Cooper, a student of the Howard University Law School. Miss Cooper is a lady of unusual attainments who was carefully trained for this position under the late James F. Bundy, whose clerk she had been for years. She completes her law course in June. The Bee wishes her much success in her new field of activity. A REPLY. --- ```markdown ``` LETTER TO THE BEE Editor of The Bee: Respecting the victorious ending of the great political campaign, which went into history on the setting of the sun of November 2, 1920, the colored brother, who followed closely in the footsteps of his white leaders, say to the powers that be: "I have fought a good fight; I have been loyal to you; I have kept the faith and I, in common with others, expect some remunerative reward," etc. The colored brother is given an equal chance only when it comes to the question of defending the honor of our country's flag; and he is given a chance to follow the lead of his white brother in bringing about the necessary changes in our present form of government. And, considering these undeniable facts, he wonders why he should be so ignominiously neglected at the time of reward. Yes, he wonders why! The colored brother knows wonderfully well the bounds of reason; and he will gracefully styly within the bounds until his chance comes, but he would like to be placed where the world will recognize the fact that he is not a drone, but a busy bee in the hive over which floats the flag of flags of the nations. We fought for great changes on the second of November, and we trust to realize them after the fourth of March. We note the fact that many of the lucrative places will be given to the much favored white leaders who piloted the old ship of state safely into the harbor on November 2. The honorable B, and the much-respected C has been pushed forward as the proper ones to sit with the incoming President around the Cabinet table; but, faithful though he has been, the colored brother realizes the fact that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for him—or any one of his—to be even thought of as a Cabinet officer anything less than 50 years (if not 1,000 years without a miraculous change) hence. But as loyal as he has been in defending the honor of this glorious Republic, and as faithful and true; as he has been to his Republican friends, the colored brother feels justified in holding up his head and looking his white leaders square in the face, and telling them what he wants and justly deserves. Take, for instance, the many places of police and doorkeepers on the Senate and House sides of the Capitol, would it not be but fair to give just a few of these places to deserving colored Republicans? The writer feels quite sure that no Senator or Representative of a just Republic on persuasion would raise his voice against such a recognition of the colored race. And may we not lay these facts before them, and beg their kind and favorable considerations? J. C. CUNNINGHAM. SOCIAL SERVICE COMMITTEE. A most brilliant and instructive program was rendered in the auditorium of the young Women's Christian Association on Sunday, March 6, under auspices of the Social Service Committee of the Y. W. C. A., of which Mrs. E. V. L. Williams is the chairman. The principal speaker was Mrs. May M. Von Riper, the Executive and Organizing Secretary of the Travelers' Aid Society. The address of Mrs. Von Riper was responded to by Mr. Lawrence A. Olchey, the Executive Secretary of the Douglass Community Service. Most excellent musical selections were rendered, among which were solos by Miss Bessie L. Stepenson and Miss V. L. Williams. Miss Kittie Bruce recited a beautiful poem, "Lest We Forget." Washington has great reason to congratulate itself for the fact that such an institution as the Young Women's Christian, Association is now actually functioning fully in this city. The mission of this institution is of the greatest importance, and it will without question receive the unqualified endorsement and support of all good people. It is to be hoped that every element of the constituted community will cheerfully co-operate with the management of the Young Women's Christian Association, that the very best results may be reached for the uplift and betterment of humanity. EDITORIAL FROM THE NEW YORK GLOBE. (The New York Globe is one of the leading metropolitan dailies of America.) The New York Globe, on Tuesday, March 8, in an editorial headed "A Signpost for Whites" pointed out the remarkable work being done by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The editorial states: "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People could be studied with profit by those who believe in lynching and Jim Crow methods. It was founded in 1909. The Crisis for March contains its report for 1920, which reveals a sufficient activity to make one thoughtful. The association now has 88,000 members, and hopes for 250,000. Its officers last year travelled 100,000 miles and the rather slender purse of the organization—$47,000—defrayed the expenses of various battles for a better treatment of the colored Americans. Representatives of the association helped to kill twelve out of 13 anti-intermarriage bills in State legislatures. They checked the course of 20 discriminating measures in Congress. They initiated legislation giving the colored American a securer footing in law courts, successfully fought dozens of cases and especially unjust convictions, disseminated literature on lynching, sponsored the colored American elector, and secured school and theater privileges in various parts of the country. The association claims credit for calling attention to abuses in Hayti. It established a news bureau at its New York headquarters. "This is evidence that needs notice. Perhaps it needs interpretation, too. It shows a growth of the body of educated, thoughtful, and determined colored Americans. These are organizing their race in America. They have already become an effective force in politics, in the courtroom, and—though this phase has not been touched upon—in industry. The promise of the future is plain. We shall continue to educate the colored American, or he will rather continue increasingly to educate himself. The body of intelligent and self-respecting colored people will continue to grow larger. Discrimination or lawless force will bring about a resistance which will be more difficult to cope with as it grows more and more informed and organized. Injustice or violence will, in fact, be the one thing capable of keeping the colored American at his worst, and of making him for the South the danger it fears he will become. Certain parts of the country may have been able to deal with colored Americans in the past outside of justice and courtesy. They will now find mob law and unconstitutional law duller and weaker weapons. Certain traditions of treatment the colored Americans must pass with the passing of the ignorance and 'helplessness of the black race." BAPTIST MINISTERS' CONFERENCE The most interesting session of the Baptist Ministers' Conference of Washington and vicinity held this year took place at the Metropolitan Baptist Church Monday. The conference was largely attended and was full of interest and enthusiasm from start to finish. Dr. M. W. D. Norman, president of the conference, was in his happiest mood and presided with characteristic dignity. Dr. J. I. Loving, the scribe of the conference, was at his post. The reports by the several pastors of their Sunday services, as their names were called by the secretary, were excellent. Following the reports, most interesting speeches were made by Rev. E. C. Morris, D.D., LL.D., of Helena, Ark., president of the National Baptist Convention; Editor J. D. Crenshaw, of Nashville, Tenn., editor of the National Baptist Voice, who spoke before the convention, and the Rev. Dr. Jones, of Kentucky, one of the most prominent Baptist divines in the country. Dr. Morris took occasion to refer to the great need of a broader vision by the Baptist family of the District of Columbia. He showed the need of a world view of the Master's cause. Christ, he said, commissioned us to go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature; and we should consider Africa and other foreign fields more than has been done. His address was well received. Rev. S. Geriah Lamkins, pastor of the McKinley Memorial Baptist Church, was offered the editorship of the Voice before Dr. Crenshaw was elected, but could not see his way clear to leave Washington at the time to accept the great honor. The remarks of Rev. Dr. Jones were brief; but very appropriate. Dr. J. L. Peacock, president of Shaw University, was the order of the day Monday. He ascended the rostrum at 1 o'clock, in company with President Norman. Dr. George O. Bullock, pastor of the Third Baptist Church, introduced President Peacock in a very appropriate and eloquent speech. Dr. Peacock spoke for nearly an hour, but was saying something every time he opened his mouth. The subject was, "The Church and the Ministry." It was a masterly address and made a profound impression on all who heard him. Dr. Peacock carried with him to Raleigh, N. C., on his return home, the best wishes and godspeed of the conference, and in addition checks for more than $500, presented to him Sunday and Monday during his visit to Washington in the interest of Shaw University. Three hundred dollars was presented by the Third Baptist Church, Dr Bullock, pastor; $100 was donated by the Metropolitan Baptist Church, Dr. Norman pastor, and $106 by the Baptist Ministers' Conference. The money from the Metropolitan Baptist Church was presented through the conference. The checks were acknowledged by President Peacock in a short but very touching speech. The following distinguished visitors were introduced to the conference: Dr. D. S. Saulter, of High Point, N. C.; Dr. D. L. Crosby, of South Orange, N. J.; Dr. R. T. Trent, of West Virginia; Dr. F. Y. Willingham, of Grafton, W. Va.; Dr. H. E. Duers, of Ossining, N. Y.; Prof. S. J. Clark, of Delhi, La.; Dr. Cyrus L. Phillips, Dr. P. D. McDonald, Dr. Fred D. Sessom, M. D. of Washington, Ga.; and Mrs. Reed, a missionary worker and evangelist—all of whom made short but most interesting speeches. It was a glorious day. SE. JN—Bee rd m rdd "TAKE YOUR CLOTHES AND GO." When I think over the eight years of Democratic misrule, with all of its hideous dealings against the colored citizens, there comes to my mind the words of the old song so often sung by colored boys, the words of which are, "Take your clothes and go!" On the 4th day of March, when President Harding rode down Pennsylvania avenue, accompanied by his predecessor, Woodrow Wilson, I fancy I could hear the millions of people whose votes made Mr. Harding President of these United States saying, to him, "Welcome, Mr. President! Welcome, sir." And then these same millions, turning toward ex-President Wilson, say to him, "Take your clothes and go!" Not only do this mighty host of Americans say to the ex-President, "Take your clothes and go," but the same is meant to all of his followers who "hit the grit" on the memorable Tuesday in November last. I was about to say here that it was a pity that the Wilson administration was such an antagonist to the colored race that not one sensible one out of the twelve millions of them could shed a tear over his exit from office. But I will not say that, for there is such a thing as shedding tears of joy! And what it took to shed those tears on the 4th of March, twelve millions of colored people had it. Yes, Democrats, "take your clothes and go!" May the country never see the likes of you again. There should be a thorough housecleaning by the Harding administration. There should be no more segregation; there should be no more discrimination; there should be no more disgraceful signs, such as "This toilet for whites" and "This toilet for colored," stuck up in any of the Government departments. Away with such hellish rot. And let us hope that President Harding's administration will kill that rule of having to present your picture when applying for a civil service examination. For that devilish scheme was only gotten up to keep colored people out of office. Let both white and colored applicants be allowed to take the civil service examinations and pass on their merits instead of their color. And that "picture business" should be cut out as one of the first things along the line of justice toward the patriotic colored citizens. No pictures were called for when the Government was calling for Liberty Bonds; no pictures had to be presented when the call to the colors was sounded. The colored people answered "Here I am" to every call and were not rejected. So why should they have to present their pictures to enjoy the fruits of victory? The Postmaster General, the Hon Will Hays, has started off like a man and a truly great statesman. Mr. Hays has a heart within him, and already he has endeared himself in the hearts of all who come under his office. Long live such Government officials as Postmaster General Hays! Oh, what a difference between Hays of Indiana and Burleson of Texas! The former is human, while the latter is inhuman. But this goes to show that Mr. Hays has never tasted any of the old Georgia 'possums. Welcome, Mr. Hays. Burleson, "take your clothes and go." Scatl CORRESPONDENCE. Editor The Bee: With regard to the editorial in the last issue of The Bee entitled "A Mysterious Meeting," we wish to state that the masses of the Republican women of Virginia knew nothing of the Republican women's meeting of State leaders. The State has elected no leader. If it has one, it, too, must be a hand-picked one. We believe in the right kind of politics or none. The Right Way. The Voicing of the Southland. Editor The Bee: We read with much interest your editorial entitled "A Mysterious Meeting." It was an eye-opener to the women' of the country. We watch with keen interest every beacon light set aloft in the columns of your splendid paper to guide and enlighten the footsteps not only of the men of our race, but our noble women. If Alaska was represented at that meeting we, the masses of the far South, knew nothing of it. Who is more in need of light, Alaska or the South? The Light-seekers PUBLIC MEN AND THINGS. By the Sage of the Potomac. I attended one of the performances at the Howard Theatre last week and was surprised to witness the record-breaking crowd that was in attendance. The people are showing that they appreciate the efforts of Manager Thomas to make this one of the leading theatres in the country. Not only does the management of the Howard deserve great credit, but also the management of the Foraker, Dunbar, Mid-City, Dudley and Hiawatha Theatres come in for the greatest of commendation on the quality and character of their pictures. President Harding's selection of Hon. Cuno H. Rudolph and Capt. James F. Oyster as Commissioners of the District of Columbia seems to meet with the approval of the majority of citizens. The Senate did not spend very much time in the confirmation of the two uen. We are blessed now to have two real Commissioners—a fact which will soon be shown. There is still considerable conjecture as to just who of the colored-American brethren will land the eight big jobs possible under the new administration. Quite a large number claim that they are quite sure of landing in the "clover fields." But it does not pay to count the chickens before they are hatched. Some have figured without the women, who seem destined to play quite an important part in deciding: just who's who in the field of politics. I am quite sure that there will be some sorely disappointed persons. Well, the inauguration and its testivities are over and the large majority of visitors have gone home. Those visiting here for the first time have expressed a feeling of agreeable surprise at the progress the colored Americans are making in this city. I had the pleasure of escorting some visitors sightseeing on last Sunday afternoon, and it was with difficulty that I finally convinced them that certain enterprises were conducted by colored Americans. This surprise was most forcibly brought out when I carried them past the Whitelaw Hotel, and the only way by which I could convince them that this hotel was operated by colored Americans was by personal inspection. It is only to be regretted that certain of our citizens failed to show our visitors the hospitality that they should have on such an occasion. MAYNARD GARNER Sporting Editor, The Bee. Dear Sir: I wish to call your attention to the fact that Maynard Garner, a Washington boy, is playing varsity basket ball at Hamilton College, Clinton, N. Y. He has been the outstanding star of the Hamilton aggregation during the whole season. It will be remembered that Garner is a former Howard University star and captain-elect of Howard's team for this year. He is a product of the District of Columbia schools, having been captain of his team during his senior year of high school there. It might be interesting to his many friends to note this in your sporting columns. SURPRISE PARTY.

TRAGEDY IN VIRGINIA: Pulaski, Va., March 10.—"Pink" Adams was shot and instantly killed by Clarence Mabe, both colored, shortly after 9 o'clock this morning at the Valley Street railroad crossing. Mabe used a single-barrel shotgun, the load entering the side of his victim near the heart. The trouble occurred over a bed which Adams sold to Mabe. Mabe did not pay Adams. Adams was returning from Mabe's home on a dray, which he had engaged to remove the bed. Mabe met them. After telling the driver to lean over, shot Adams; then took to his heels. A $40 reward was offered for the capture of Mabe. Adams was about 23 years of age, and did overseas service. He was the son of Mr. Tom Adams, who has been a deacon of the First Baptist Church here for more than 30 years. In connection with this tragedy is recalled the fact that Mabe is the nephew of Floyd Hale, who was convicted and hanged in this county many years, ago, after being found guilty of the murder of an umbrella mender.

Too much cannot be said in praise of the Clark Training School, which for more than 20 years has been doing efficient service along the line of educating our girls in the various trades—cooking, dressmaking, and millinery. The commencement of this great school was held on Thursday, February 24, 1921. The commencement address was delivered by Hon. Clarence McLeod, who stressed with great earnestness the opportunities for young women to accomplish much good in the world. The class was also warned of the importance of rightly using the right of suffrage. The speaker also told the class that life is not a bed of roses and that they might expect many hardships, but success would eventually come through continued effort. In conclusion the class was most earnestly warned against jealousy as one of the greatest evils to be fought against. This was spoken of as one of the greatest handicaps to the progress of the race. Eliminating this fault, there were no heights that would be beyond the reach of the race. Mr. Morrissey S. Koonce introduced Mr. McLeod following his address. Mr. Lankford, the architect, then addressed the class, and gave a glowing tribute to Mrs. L. R. Clark the principal of the Clark Training School, who for so many years has labored in this community for the education of our girls, and said the Clark School should be endowed, promising to make the first contribution. The diplomas were presented by Mrs. E. V. L. Williams, who in a choice address on service impressed upon the class the importance of putting the lessons they had learned into actual practice as they come in touch with the people in the various communities into which they might do. Remarks were also made by Mrs. R. B. Bruce, wife of the late Bishop Bruce, of North Carolina. Miss Lauretta Johnson presided at the piano. She also composed the class song. The graduates were: Susie E. Rowe, Tarboro, N. C.; Agnes Allen, Washington, D. C.; Sadie Lee Coley, Goldsbro, N. C.; Daisy B. Fortune, Colonial Beach, Va.; Katie Hughes, Gordonville, Va.; Mary Elizabeth Palmer, Washington, D. C.; Hennie Adams, Washington, D.

REPUBLICAN WOMEN OF THE COUNTRY ARE AROUSED. The Bee has received letters from all sections of the country protesting against the "mysterious meeting" which was held in the city of Washington by the alleged State leaders of Republican women on March 3. In another column of this paper two of these protests are published. The Bee is forced to ask, "What constitutes a State leader?" Have the women of the States elected State leaders? A State leader is not a self-styled one, nor is she a hand-picked one. The only leader whom the women of the States should recognize or tolerate is the one elected by them from the rank and file of the women who have done and are doing something for the social uplift of the race. A woman who will work with the women of her race for economic, political and social betterment. A woman who can co-operate with the opposite sex, but not be dominated by them. In short, a good mixer along all lines. Viewed from this angle, the real State leaders are still among the rank and file of the people. The people have had no opportunity to express their wishes as to their leadership at the Woman's National Committee which met on March 3 in the District of Columbia. They knew nothing of its call. Several heard of it incidentally and attended, but were invited out of its assembly by Mr. C. A. Cottrill. The Bee means that one of these women in particular, who had done large work in the State of Maryland, was invited from a women's Republican meeting by a man, without a word of protest from the Republican women. At the same meeting, when the question arose as to who would represent the District, a woman was named who is a resident of North Carolina to represent the District. This is equivalent to none at all, because she was hand-picked and claimed residence in North Carolina. The clubwomen of Maryland declare that they will not be dominated by any woman who did not work for the regular Republican ticket, and particularly by a woman whom they did not elect. The women of Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania and Colorado are making similar protests. It was our privilege and deep gratification to hear the inaugural address of President Harding. It was all that could have been expected. We are profoundly convinced that the President's heart is in the right place and that it is sincerely his purpose and desire to do the right thing toward the solution of the many problems with which he is confronted. The President has, however, tremendous counter-currents against which to contend; so that should he fail to come quite up to the expectations of all, due allowance must be made, and the mantle of charity must not be wanting. A hundred thousand dollars is being called for by some of the members of our race leaders for the purpose of establishing a headquarters here to fight "lily-whitism." The Bee does not fear the inroads of this hated monster, with such men at the helm as President Warren G. Harding, Vice-President Calvin Coolidge, and Secretaries Hughes, Weeks, Mellon, Hays, Daugherty, Denby, Hoover, Fall, Wallace and Davis and their associates. The Bee welcomes with unfeigned joy the dawn of the new order of things in the sunny Southland, spoken of by Professor Gregory in the article on the front page. The Bee has always said that if the cool-headed, well-thinking men of all races would work together for the common uplift of man, irrespective of creed, class or color, the problems of life would be reduced to a minimum.

The hall was decorated with American flags and festoons of evergreens and flowers. The beautiful home life of Washington was thoroughly exemplified on this auspicious occasion. The magnificent gowns of the ladies- and the conventional evening dress of the gentlemen gave the occasion the air of a holiday scene. One of the most striking figures on this occasion was that of the tall and graceful form of Mrs. Anna Murray, attired in black beaded net, trimmed with green ostrich plumes, with diamond jewelry. The guests tripped the light fantastic to the strains of Lewis Thomas Martin Orchestra 18-Piece Cef Club, including the famous supper show band. A toothsome menu had been prepared by the committee. The officers of the association are: Eugene Brooks, president; S. W. Watson, first vice-president; George M. Cook, second vice-president; George W. Stewart, third vice-president; E. W. Turner, fourth vice-president; George W. Jackson, fifth vice-president; J. W. Muse, recording secretary; A. P. Brent, financial secretary; W. J. Smith, assistant financial secretary; John I.

It was successful from start to finish, and too much praise cannot be given to Mr. Eugene Brooks and his splendid committee for the pleasure and comfort given the patrons of the fine entertainments given by this association. "THE LITTLE STONE CUT OUT OF THE MOUNTAIN." Sunday afternoon, promptly at 4 Wheatley Club, Y. W. C. A., Ninth and o'clock, the gymnasium of the Phyllis Rhode Island avenue, was packed to its utmost capacity—standing room at a premium—to do honor to Miss Elizabeth C. Carter. A very pleasing program was presented: Sermon my Elder Gordon, Christian Church; solo, Mrs. Dixon; address, Bishop I. N. Ross; solo, Mr. Stepney; recitation, Miss B. Smith; solo, Miss Gibson; response, Miss Elizabeth C. Carter; address and presentation of picture of Miss Carter to the Board of Directors, Mrs. Julia Mason Layton; acceptance. Mrs. F. Boyce, president Local Board Y. W. C. A. Mrs. Julia Mason Layton's subject was "The Little Stone Cut Out of the Mountain." In this little allegory the following prominent points of Miss Carter's life were brought out: Born of humble parentage in New Bedford, Mass.; educated in the same city. After graduation, entered an examination with 75 other applicants; 13 passed, and Miss Carter was one, and the only one of her race. She has been a most successful teacher, teaching a mixed school of white and colored children. For 15 years she has taught in one of the largest school buildings in New Bedford. Nearly 25 years ago Miss Carter planned the New Bedford Home for the Aged (imates both colored and white). The Woman's Loyal Union of her, city indorsed the idea and voted to unite their efforts for the maintenance of the Home. This Home is supported by voluntary contributions and interest from stocks, bonds, mortgages, and real estate. Miss Carter has invested in stock for the Home more than $60,000. It is operated by a board of directors—15 colored women. Miss Carter paid out of her own funds $105 for the first six months' rent to start the Home. Miss Carter was commandeered to Washington to serve the War Work Council of the National Board of Y. M. C. A., through Miss Eva. D. Bowles. Her school board granted year's leave of absence that she might take up this work. She reached Washington, D. C. October 29, 1918. Recreation Center was opened by her at 1634 Fourteenth street, January, 1919. Also another in Calvary Episcopal Church in the same year. The present Y. W. C. A. building was started November 10, 1919. Miss Carter supervised the work daily until the structure was completed. It was dedicated December 19, 1920. The land, building, and furnishings have all been given to the local Y. W. C. A. by the War Work Council of the National Board. The people of Washington must rally to the support of the Y. W. C. A. in order to maintain it. Miss Carter's life has been a very busy and useful one. She served as President of National Association of Women's Clubs from 1908 to 1912. She has been President of the North Eastern Federation of Women's Clubs for a number of years. She is also President of New England Conference Branch Women's Mite Missionary Society of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. She has completed her work with the Y W C.

A., and we would not have had the splendid building we now have had it not been for her superior judgment, her wise plans, and untiring efforts to push the work. It was originally planned to have a two-story Recreational Building, with swimming pool, shower baths, etc., but Miss Carter noted how many poor girls came to Washington, wholly unacquainted, without home or friends, and she went to New York headquarters and pleaded to cut out the swimming pool and some other things and put in more room for the girls. They complied with her requests, and the building now has 49 dormitories. She turns over one of the finest and most thoroughly equipped buildings in the country, and she returns home and will take up her school work again. Her school has been kept for her by the State Board. In her parting words she urged the directors to be vigilant and constant in prayer. She said, "There are hundreds of white women who would be glad to see you fail, and there are hundreds who are anxious to have you succeed. Work and prayer will help you hold it; and only that." a club of young women connected with the Y. W. C. A., Miss S. Janifer, chairman, thinking like many that the splendid work of Miss Carter should be perpetuated, had a life-size portrait of her in her uniform made, and Mrs. Julia Mason Layton presented it to the Board, to be bung on the walls, that coming generations might see and hear and think of this splendid woman. She said, "They refused to place Frederick Douglass in the Hall of Fame, but 'The Little Stone Cut Out of the Mountain' has secured for us in the nation's Capital a Hall of Fame in which we may place our great celebrities." At the close of the meeting an informal reception and goodbye handshake followed. DEANWOOD COMMUNITY.

If a horse falls in a ditch, if a truck is needed to pull someone's car out of the mud, if an alarm of fire is sent in, if a pump needs fixing, or a well needs digging, there is one man in our town who is thought of first by most citizens. His name is Melvin Tinner. Melvin is one of those jovial, radiant human being who fights or plays without changing moods. For years Melvin was one of the best baseball players in the county. He has served as contractor on many big jobs. He employs at times a corp of workmen. He is a voter, a stanch supporter of the NAACP and one of the kind of workers that keep a church moving along. Although employed largely by the white citizens of the town, Melvin feels none the less a man in the presence of any of his neighbors and townsmen. GEORGETOWN TOPICS. Mt. Zion M. E.

He opened his sermon by singing one of his evange?listic songs, which had its desired effect on the congregation. His subject was, "I must work the works of Him that sent me." Music was rendered by the Allen A. M. E. Church choir. The Ladies' Club of the church gave $100 to the trustees of the church, to be placed in the building fund of the church.

In His Inaugural Address He Declares Against Discrimination Both in Legislation and Administration. President Harding, in his inaugural address, did not refer to the so-called colored-American problem directly. He made no reference whatever to us as a group; and those who were breathlessly waiting for such a statement, and who had builted up a hope that he would especially single us out, were perhaps disappointed. But President Harding did what was infinitely better. He included us, without segregation or distinction, as American citizens entitled to and deserving of every consideration and every right bestowed upon every other American citizen. He particularly raised our hopes out of the slough of despondency into which the Wilson administration had plunged them when he declared in his inaugural address that— "Our fundamental law recognizes no class, no group, no section; there must be none in legislation or administration." In that broad, sweeping and sincere statement he encompasses the American colored man as well as the American white man. He served notice to our enemies—to enemies of every class or group—that discrimination because of race or color will be banned by his administration. And, further, that he will not approve of legislation discriminatory against any particular class or group. But lest there be some who cannot, or will not, find comfort and inspiration in that statement quoted above from President Harding's inaugural address; lest there be some who think, merely to be argumentative and contrary, he should have been more specific; who think that in an inaugural address made to American citizens without distinction of caste, class or race he should have segregated us ing St. Augustine, which is in the State of Florida, alas and alack, he wrote me with reference to the problem uppermost in our minds, and he said, most conclusively—so plain that any wayfaring man in a distinct paragraph, let me say that just on the eve of his leav- who runs may see and read and understand—the following: "My concern is for all of America, and I am interested in furthering the good fortune of the colored people because they are American citizens and entitled to the concern of our common country." Then, touching the malicious anti-race propaganda put out by the Democrats during the presidential campaign, and which, we must all sadly admit, has inspired race discrimination to the maximum degree in communities where before it was at but the minimum, he encouragingly said: "You need have no anxiety about any embarrassment to the incoming administration concerning any of the developments of the recent campaign. My sense of justice is not impaired in any way." Taking his above-quoted statement from his inaugural address alone, we as a group, unrecognized as such by our fundamental law, have every reason to hope, and confidently believe, that President Harding, like a distinguished predecessor—Roosevelt—will insist and see to it that "the door of hope shall not be closed" even to us. And coupling his inaugural statement with the assurance given me in the letter just on the eve of his departure from St. Augustine, the more than 12,000,000 American citizens in this country who are enumerated as "Negroes" by the census reports can well take heart and say, "Lead, kindly light of justice, lead!"

Carter to the King's Daughters was postponed; also the address of Attorney Hill, of Alexandria, for the Young Men's Helping Hand Club. **** Improvement has been made at the Methodist parsonage by the installation of an electric light on the front porch.

Thomas to address its session, which Mr. Thomas did last Thursday night. To say his remarks were greeted with applause would be putting it mildly. Unlike many speakers, Mr. Thomas did not play upon the emotion of his hearers so much as he stimulated action in grax matter. Mr. Thomas urged the people of the community to consider themselves as part of the great "rising --- 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.

This is the only colored music store in the city, and the addition of her services should prove a forward step for this well-known establishment.

It contains ingredients which stimulate the scalp and are calculated to improve and beautify the hair. Quinade is delightfully perfumed, it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the scalp. It is an elegant hair dressing and will tend to soften harsh hair, making it more pliable and easy to put up in any style its length will permit. To get best results from the use of Quinade the scalp should be thoroughly washed every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasoap, a delightful shampoo. Quinasoap is made with a rich, creamy lather, so desirable in a shampoo. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequaled in other shampoos. Insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name.

Thomas Frazier and Co GRADUATE FUNERAL DIRECTORS AND EMBALMERS By N. Barnett Dodson. Durham, N. C., March 15—This is the busiest and most important period for students at the National Training School in this city. Two months from date the annual commencement season will be on in full activity. The next few weeks will determine "who is who" in regards to graduation; therefore, every student is on his mettle. The year thus far has been marked by diligent study and conscientious work by all concerned. Dr. James E. Shepard, the steady-going president, has shown great capacity and business tact for the work. Through his efforts the school has had a wonderful success. If Dr. Shepard succeeds in his plans for new dormitory buildings, the next school year will witness a new National Training School. President Shepard is busy now winding-up his speaking engagements previous to making plans for the eleventh annual commencement program and graduation exercises. AMONG THE VISITORS. Among the interesting visitors to the National Capital during inauguration week was Mr. Stewart H. Wilson, of Talladega, Ala., who came up to spend a fortnight with his son and daughter-in-law, Attorney and Mrs. J. Franklin Wilson. Mr. Wilson stopped with Attorney and Mrs. Wilson at the spacious residence of Mrs. James F. Bundy, 403 O street northwest, where he was the recipient of many honors from friends. On Monday, March 7, Mr. Wilson and Attorney Wilson were the guests of Mr. Arthur J. Hill at a luncheon at the Whitelaw Hotel: Mr. Hill is originally from Talladega, but is now in business in this city. Mr. Wilson left for Alabama last Tuesday afternoon in company with Dr. Charles Sumner Taylor, of Selma, Ala. Dr. Taylor is a native Washingtonian, but is now practicing in Selma.

The question of indorsement was referred to the Executive Board, of which Rev. S. Geriah Lamkins is chairman. Rev. Lamkins promised to investigate the school and the work that is being done there and report at a subsequent meeting of the conference. . 7 oe .

INSPECTION DOES NOT MEAN BUYING Taylor's at You Howard University choir gave a song recital in Rankin Memorial Chapel last Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. Charles Gilpin, new colored star actor, rated by the Drama League as one of the four greatest actors in America, will appear in the great emotional drama, "Emperor Jones," at Belasco Theater this month. This tells us that art recognizes no color line and is blind to caste or racial conditions. If Charles Gilpin can attain such fame in dramatic art, it stands to reason that soon or late a race star will appear in the musical firmament that will command universal attention. Right now Roland Hayes is attracting unusual notice from the press in England by his splendid singing, as noted in this column recently, and others from time to time will do likewise. It is our opinion that colored artists should tour foreign countries, where there is no color line drawn. They could establish their art with greater ease and success by so doing, and it is worth the time and expense, we believe, Mme. Anita Patti Brown, of Chicago, made a tour to South America a few seasons ago, and she was welcomed among the elite of Brazil and other Latin-American countries, and made the tour successfully. We should like to see Mrs. Cole-Talbert tour abroad, because of her excellent vocal qualifications and high rank as an artist. She undoubtedly would command immediate and critical attention of her foreign hearers and bring new lustre to the race as vocalist. There are others to whom we might mention, but space forbids at this writing. Charles Gilpin has paved the way by his superior preparation and talent. Now let others walk therein! Titta Ruffo, world's greatest baritone, sang at Poli's Theater this week. We call your attention to the following from the Evening Star of Tuesday last: "He. sang the Serenade from Mozart's "Don Giovanni," in place of the prologue, which was sung later, and omitted the Costa song entirely. After the first phrase of the serenade, he suddenly stopped the accompanist, audibly 'begged pardon,' and rushed off the stage, returning later gleefully waving in his hand a diminutive book containing the words of the song, which he told in pantomime. His frankness amused rather than offended, though such a lapse of memory was hardly to be expected of an artist of Ruffo's reputation." That is what the Star critic handed to the world's greatest baritone for his "lapse of memory." A colored artist would never be forgiven by a colored constituency for such an occurrence in a recital, still Ruffo, even afterward, received tremendous applause at the close of the concert, cheers, bravos, and stamping of feet, augmented by the waving of handkerchiefs and the toss- ing of programs into the air, made a very unusual demonstration, says the Star critic. Human nature in races is a queer thing, isn't it? *** In our last week's article on "Music critics in general," a lady desired to know the animus behind the statement "laborers by day and musicians by night." The statement was intended to convey this thought that, those not giving their whole time to the art of music are not better prepared to give constructive criticism to things of musical art as are they whose time is given over to it wholly for the love of art. The former we would style as amateur, the latter as professional critic. The article referred to was written in a technical sense, having no bearing whatever upon the fact that musicians as well as other folk must labor for their maintenance where otherwise they least can afford.
