NationsConference What's Is The Interest? (This is the first of a series of articles on the Armament Conference in Washington written specially for the colored press by the author of "The Negro Faces America"; who is now publicity director of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.) * * * What is it that prime ministers, generals, diplomats, admirals of the governments of Europe will discuss in Washington when the Armament Conference begins there on November 12? It is nothing less than whether war is to be permitted to wipe out what we know as civilization. Europe has been shattered by the armies and navies which were to "guarantee peace." Starvation stalks in Russia and Central Europe. There is hunger, misery and unemployment throughout the world. As yet, no one knows whether mankind can "get together," whether men can salvage the wreckage that world war has left in its wake. The young manhood of an entire generation was blasted, poisoned, blown to shreds on the battlefields of Europe. Disease, famine and revolution confront the masses who survive the war. We know now that armies and navies do not prevent war. They help to bring it on. A fight is much more likely to occur when men carry loaded pistols on the hip. So the "Disarmament Conference" in Washington represents hope. Throughout the world men know that if life is to be made tolerable and decent, war must be made a thing of the past. It is this hope which the Washington conference represents. What is the especial interest of the Washington conference for the colored races of the world? VOL.

Millions of the colored, races of the world have been held in subjection by those very armies and navies, which the white governments finally turned against each other. Every nation taking part in the Washington Conference has committed crimes against weaker colored peoples. Great Britain has held India. She fought China to force the Chinese to buy that terrible drug, opium. Even now there are uprisings in India which are being put down in bloody combat. France has imposed her rule on Indo-China. Belgium, Germany, France. Great Britain have killed, robbed, exploited the natives of Africa. Haiti for five years was subjected to the bayonets and bullets of United States Marines. This robbery of the weak has been known as imperialism. European governments reached out for territory in which they could obtain raw materials cheap and make the natives buy manufactured products at a high price. The excuse was often that it was necessary to "civilize" the natives or maintain "order." What the men in control of the white governments were after was profit, money. And the most effective part of the transaction were armies and navies. In reaching out for undeveloped territory, the white governments came into conflict. A number of writers, including Mr. E. D. Morcel and Mr. Walter Lippmann, in his "The Stakes of Diplomacy" have asserted that it was scrambling over the loot in Africa and other territories that brought about the World War. The greed of white governments found its punishment. The time has come when western civilization will have to change its methods in dealing with the colored races. For Africa has been gobbled up. There remains only China and the Far East to be disposed of. Europe has been maintaining its inequitable and out-of-date society at the expense largely of the colored races of the world. They will have to be taken into partnership and the machinery of force discarded by which they have been held in subjection. This is the broad background of interest for the colored peoples of the world, black, yellow and brown, in the Washington Conference. The Washington Bee So it will be seen that it is not merely "disarmament" which is to be discussed there. In fact, the invitation to the conference did not mention the word "disarmament." On August 12 of this year, months after Senator William E. Borah had proposed a resolution calling for a three-power conference on naval disarmament between Great Britain, Japan and the United States, the newspapers published the text of a note sent out by Charles Evans Hughes, Secretary of State of the United States. The note was sent to the governments of Great Britain, Japan, France, Italy and China, inviting them to send representatives to a conference in Washington "on the subject of the limitation of armament, in connection with which Pacific and Far Eastern questions should also be discussed." It will be seen that the note did not mention "disarmament", but "limitation of armament." In other words, the question proposed for discussion was not the abolition of existent armies and navies, but agreements to limit the future increase of those already in existence. For this reason it is a mistake to call the Washington conference a "disarmament conference." Every one of the nations invited has accepted the invitation which Secretary Hughes sent them. In consequence there will be such a gathering in Washington, as the world has never in its history known before. Existing governments of the world will be represented by their ablest and most astute ministers, experts in colonial administration, financiers, diplomats and military and naval officers. The generals who led the allied armies in the world war, Foch of France; Diaz of Italy, Haig of England; Admiral Beatty of the British fleet; Vice Admiral Kato, Director of the Naval Staff College of Japan—these are figures who will help to represent their governments in Washington. And at the head of the various delegations will be David Lloyd George, prime minister of Great Britain; Aristide Briand, premier of France; Dr. W. W. Yen, minister of foreign affairs for China. To represent the United States President Harding has appointed four men: Elihu Root, former Senator and Sec- WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY NOVEMBER 19, 1921 retary of State; Oscar Underwood, Democratic leader in the Senate; Henry Cabot Lodge, Senator from Massachusetts, and Charles Evans Hughes, now Secretary of State. Whether the delegates to the armament conference realize it or not—and some of them undoubtedly do—the future of European civilization is at stake. Many of the men who will be in Washington took part as generals in the war. Many of them are partly responsible for the conditions in Europe which made that war inevitable. It has been said that to invite generals and admirals to an armament conference, with a view to reducing or abolishing armies and navies, is like inviting a conference of burglaries to devise measures for protecting homes: But those armaments will have to be reduced if there is not to be more war, such disastrous and horrible war as mankind has not yet ever suffered. Whether those delegates in Washington come to an agreement or not on the reductions of armies and navies, depends largely on the people of the United States. It is up to the people to demand that the conferences shall be held in the open. They must demand that no small group of men sitting behind closed doors have the power to condemn the world to further misery. Closed doors failed to make a peace after the world war in Versailles. The men who failed to make a decent peace there now have their last opportunity. The penalty will be ruin, the last and greatest tragedy of white Europe. Meanwhile Americans should demand to know why ninety-three cents out of every dollar of their government's money in 1920 was spent in paying for past wars and in preparing for future wars. (In the next article Mr. Seligmann will discuss the political issues which confront the conference.) ASBURY CHURCH NOTES. A Junior Epworth League was organized at Asbury Church. October 10th, 1921, with Miss Pearl Datcher as the Junior Superintendent. Forty children were enrolled. Rev. J. Carroll, the pastor, and Miss Violet Ferguson, the District Junior Superintendent, made timely remarks concerning Junior League work. While refreshments were being served Miss Ferguson demonstrated Junior-League methods. The unusual enthusiasm manifested on this occasion was a marked evidence of a Junior League possibility in Asbury M. E. Church. The Epworth League received a rare treat from the excellent program rendered by the Zion B. Y. P. U. of Deanwood, D. C., Sunday, November 6, 1921. The opening services were conducted by Mr. L. Bethel president of the Epworth League. Afterward Mr. Herbert A. Green, vice president, introduced Mr. Tolliver of the Zion B. Y. P. U., who presided during the rendition of the program. Each participant, in his rendition, contributed something worth while to the interest and inspiration of a crowded house. The League is endeavoring to make its Sunday services of the greatest interest for those who attend. Matthew M. Taylor represented the Barry Farm Citizens' Association at the Civic Alliance meeting held at the Twelfth Street Y. M. C. A. Thursday last. The Alliance meeting was an important one, with representation from nearly all of the local colored citizen bodies. days from the United States Treasury. A trip to his former home in the State of Virginia, where he bagged a number of rabbits was greatly enjoyed. ** *** Yocee Fanruff has bought the property of Abraham F. Ferguson and William Murray on Douglass Road, near Stanton. Mr. Fanruff is a prominent merchant of this suburb. ** * *** The funeral of Halley E. Frazier, daughter of Alexander W. Frazier, took place on Monday from Campbell A. M. E. Church, with Rev. W. H. Manoookoo officiating. The church was filled with friends of the deceased. The floral offerings were beautiful and many. ** * *** The Barry Farm, Citizens' Association will meet on Friday evening, November 25th. In one section of his annual report the superintendent discusses some "needed developments and extensions of the school system." Justification of every one of the developments or extensions advocated is to be found in the growth of the school system since 1906, when the present system was organized. With one exception, the proposals are for the further development and extensions of existing practices. These practices have been established in Washington on sound administrative or educational practices to be found in well organized city school systems. Nothing entirely new is advocated. No innovations or eliminations are urged; only extensions, developments or legalizations of what now exists are recommended at this time. The present organic law provides for two separate and largely autonomic school systems, one for white and one for colored pupils, supervised and directed by the Superintendent of School. The superintendent believes this legal provision for the school system should be continued and nothing recommended in his annual report is intended to modify the present practice in this respect. Indeed, in the plans advocated for the development and extension of the school system, every effort has been made by the superintendent to recognize and to respect the autonomy and the needs of each division of the school system which finds common ground in the superintendent's office.

In a few days Washington will go down in history as having, or not having colored men and women who are willing to back the girlhood and womanhood of the colored race. The challenge has come through the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. to every race-loving man or woman to show their real interest to supporting a $200,000 building which was given entirely by War Work Council. Men and women of Washington, are you going to let the prophesy of peoples, all over, the country—white and black—come true, that Washingtonians will not keep this trust which is committed to them? Must it be said of us that we are still willing to class ourselves in a class of paupers—ever ready to receive, never to give? Y. W. C. A. NOTES. On last Sunday at the Dunbar High School Congressman L. C. Dyer spoke to an appreciative audience in the interest of our drive. Among other things, he said was that the Young Women's Christian Association was a great need in this city, and that he felt t hat every man, woman and child should contribute to its support. He offered his services to the organization to help them to raise the budget, saying he would do every single thing he could to help them. Dr. Georgiana Simpson, Dr. Eva Dykes, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, Miss E. F. G. Merritt and Mr. J. P. Bond were the other speakers. On Friday of last week in the gymnasium of the "Y" Building the National Association of Wage Earners perfected their organization, Miss N. H. Burroughs having issued the call. Many prominent women were present, among them being Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, Mrs. Brown of Pittsburgh, Mrs. Ora B. Stokes of Richmond, Va. and Mrs. Mary Church Terrell of this city. The organization will be national in scope, and great things are expected of this wonderful organization. A PROMOTION. Mr. Arthur F.

In his new position he is making good. Mr. Boston is an active worker in many things, one the Young Men's League. His many friends extend their wishes and congratulations for a life of success. MUSICAL FEATURE AT METROPOLITAN. The musical festival at Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, Tuesday, November 15th, under the auspices of the Minute Club, Mr. Harry E. Simms, manager, was a howling success from every angle. The attractions were as follows: The famous Metropolitan chorus, consisting of fifty voices, under the direction of Mrs. Marie Jumper and Prof. W. G. Braxton, organist; the Odd Fellows concert band, consisting of forty-four pieces, rendered a special program, under the direction of Bandmaster Elsie S. Hoffman. The program committee sent the following card to the public: "In arranging for this musical festival, the management feels that for the entertainment of the many visitors from all parts of the world, who will meet in Washington, D. C., for the Armistice day celebration and the disarmament parleys, beginning November 11th, it is presenting a strong card by the best talent in the city." The voice soloist of the festival was Dr. C. Sumner Wormley. Of him more later. The cornet soloists was Mr. Calvin Chase, Jr., son of the late and lamented founder and editor of The Bee, orator, attorney, politician and zealous race leader, W. Calvin Chase. At 8:30 p. m. the choir filled the choir loft. The band in snow-white suits took their places on the platform, which was beautifully decorated with American flags. With practiced fingers the musicians under Prof. Braxton rendered "Offertoire No. 4 (St. Cecilia) by Batise. The comfortable church arose and sang "The Rhine." The rendition of "Onward Christian Soldiers" by the band was exceedingly inspiring, and if they played that piece in a war as they played it at Metropolitan, every soldier would feel that he was willing to make the "supreme sacrifice" for Christ and His Kingdom. I wonder if the crusaders had such to inspire them. The director was simply music personified. The saxophones, reeds, drums, tubas, cornets, French horns, and slides seemed to have been welded into one mass and there was not a mistake by a sixteenth note. Congratulations. Mr. Chase rendered "The Palms," by Favre, accompanied by the band. Mr. Chase is a thorough master of the corner and in some of his "trible tonque" passages the vibrations seem to arouse one to the actual scene of the "Saviour's entrance into Jerusalem." The dimish of the sheered notes in the score was taken with such sweetness and clearness that one wondered how one could become so efficient. He played for an encore "Somewhere a Voice is Calling," and the rendition was as good if not better than "The Palms." The harmony of the band was beautiful. The choir rendered a patriotic choral, "To Thee O Country," by Eichberg. Mrs. Jumper showed in directing the full chorus that she is a master of her art, and is a credit to the choir, the church, the community and the race. They sang as an encore the second stanza of the same song. The band next rendered "Light of the World, We Hail Thee," by Gray. Comment on the rendition of this religious classic, other than it seemed that it was a companion piece to "The Palms," and made one think that all Jerusalem "Hailed the Light of the World." The band selection was "Cross and Crum," and it opened in full force with "Stand Up for Jesus," then "Come Ye Disconsolate" every instrument playing in Fortetissimo. The variations were beautiful as they changed from one hymn to another. An encore was responded to. Dr. C. Sumner Wormley next entertained us with a baritone solo, "Because," by Hardelot. Miss Florence A. Brooks, Metropolitan's accomplished, musician, accompanied him. The poise of the doctor is one of a practiced singer. There is no affectation about him. He responded to an encore and rendered "Gray Days," by Noel Johnson. He sings exceedingly well in both upper and lower registers. "The Hallelujah Chorus," rendered by the choir, was rendered as if the "Crowning of the Son of Man," at his second coming, when "The New Jerusalem Came Out of the Clouds." For an encore the choir rendered "Holy Ghost With Light Divine." Dr. C. M. Tanner, the pastor, in a fine speech, thanked the band, the choir and the audience. He stated that they expect to have an International Musical for the delegates to the Conference on Limitation of Armaments, when Vice President Coolidge will be in attendance. The audience, led by the choir and band, rendered "The Star Spangled Banner. A repast was served. REV. J. LUTHER MARTIN. CONVICTED FOR THREATENING EMPLOYER. It is such an unusual thing for ladies of Deanwood to employ drivers for their private cars that there has been a long-standing sensation and much gossip over the fact that Mrs. Christina M. Briggs, Community Secretary of the Deanwood Center, owned a car and employed a driver. Last Monday morning Thomas H. Bell was convicted in the police court for threatening Mrs. Briggs after she had discharged him from her service for his impudence. He became incited against her and joined the opposing forces of Deanwood in spreading malicious slander, of which there is no foundation. Mrs. Briggs holds ironclad evidence against slanderous rumors and will take action against them. CHRISTINA M. BRIGGS. FEATURE PICTURES TOOSAYNTE LEE OVACHOO BROWN. (Copyright, 1921, Kelley Newspaper Feature Service.) Toussaint L'Ouverture Brown, having been left fifteen thousand dollars by Richard Wenthall, is visited by Ulysses B. Catling, who advises him to buy an apartment house. Some days later Ulysses B. Catling had forty thousand dollars and Toussaint L'Ouverture Browne owed the Harlem Trust Company thirty thousand dollars, having deposited for initial payment ten thousand dollars of his strange legacy. He felt more like a personage than ever. The applause at the Sheba Theatre was gratifying enough, but there was something real, solid, unchangeable. He actually owned a part of the magic island of Manhattan; he was represented, backed up, protected by a fine piece of property. Every morning he went round to look at his Blanche Bruce. At last the first of the month came round, and it was time to collect the rents. Toussaint got up early, dressed carefully, took a large wallet and a receipt book, and proceeded to the Blanche Bruce. Never had she looked so beautiful. White and yellow under the blue morning sky, she was like a great harvest field, waiting ti pour her tribute into his pockets. Toussaint entered the vestibule and rang a bell. A rheumatic old woman in a raveled 'shawl came to the door. "Good mawnin'," said Toussaint. "Mis' Grant, I b'leeves. Ise Mistah Toosaynte Lee Ovahchoo Brown, de new ownnah. Ise c'leckin' de rents dis mawnin'." "Rint!' squeaked the old woman. "Whut rint?'" "De rent fo' yo' 'partment, Mis' Grant. Dis is he fust day——" "Don't pay no rint." "But sholy, madams, you don't speck to live in a 'partment 'thouten payin' rent?" "Dunno nothin' bout it. Man say I needn't pay nothin', axe him." As the woman had not taken the chain off the door Toussaint could not force his way in and argue with her; indeed, before he could say more the old woman shut the door. He backed dazedly out into the hall and rang the next bell. A stout, blunt-faced woman with a very dirty dress opened the door. "Who dar?" she rumbled. "Who darr' she rumbled. "Ise de new ownah, 'cleckin' de rent." "Ain't no rent, axe Catlin." Before he could reply she slammed the door in his face. With a churning brain he went up to the second floor, where a short, dark woman with bare feet but kindly face answered the bell. "Good wamnin', Mis' Holt. Ise Mistah Brown, what's now de ownah of —" "I 'cla' to goodness!' cried the woman. "It's sho Mistah Brown whut acks at de Sheba. Ise seed you offen, 'Mistah Brown. 'Scuse my 'pearance, Ise jes in mah disabilities dis mawnin'." "Oh, nevah mind, Mis' Holt," said Toussaint, gallantly. "Ise only come fo' de rent." "An' youso de man whut's boughten dis house? Den dat's it—dat's it! I sees it all now. I ben awonderin' an' wonderin' whut dat man wuz up to." "Whut man?" "Mistah Catlin". I was down in Sixty-secon Street wid my man in de hospital, an' couldn't pay no rent, when long comes dis Catlin's clerk an' tells me I kin move up hyuh rent free. It was awful funny, but bein's as dey wah gwine disposses me whar I was, I jes taken a chanst an' moved up. I ain't paid no rent yit, and I ben a-wonderin' an' a-wonderin' when sumpin' was gwine drap. An' now it's done drapped." The woman's voice ran on and on but Toussaint heard no more. When he got away from the woman's protestations of sympathy he sank wearily upon the stairs. After ten minutes of misery he got up and dragged himself through the house, but at every door except five he met with the same response. "He jes nachellly skint de hide off me," groaned Toussaint, as he walked home. "Filled de Blanche Bruce wid fake tenants an' I thout dey wuz real ones. Jes wanted to git rid of a bad-payin' house, an' I was de goat." Toussaint's troubles had only begun. The next three months were a nightmare. He dispossessed the tenants who had acted as decoys for Catling; all except Mrs. Holt. He had fourteen empty flats on his hands, for those were the days when flats went begging. Nowadays the tenants go begging. Expenses went on just the same. November came, and with it came the coal bills; the furnace was old and rusty and wouldn't give any heat; the hot water pipes had long been held together by rusty Coming soon—The Vamp and The 'exceeded' Virgin—a Serial Love Story that will 'shorter.' wire; the dumbwaiter was minus a rope and the shaft was a pestilential nuisance; the remaining tenants needed their flats repaired; the Health Department fined Toussaint for the rotting-refuse in the back, and the Fire Department fined him for having paper in the dumbwaiter shaft. All the ills to which a house is heir seemed to have descended upon the Blanche Bruce. There was nothing but bills and fines week after week, and the first installment of the interest was almost due. Toussaint paid out some more money to advertise the house in all the Harlem papers, but when prospective tenants looked at the flats they demanded a multitude of repairs which would have broken a richer man than Toussaint. "Why didn't I axe somebody befo' I did bizness wid Catlin'?" he groaned. "Why didn't I see a lawyer or somebody?" He lived in cold misery, awaiting him. He feared the look of the long, legal-sized envelope; besides it was from Albany. What were they about to do to him now? He walked round the letter several times before he dared to pick it up. Wal, cain't do no mo' dan kill me, an' Ise mos' kilt already." He tore open the letter. He read it and rubbed his eyes, then he read it again. He read it four times before its purport entered his mind. Then he jumped up and danced round the room, waving the letter like a maniac and laughing and crying. "De Lawd sutt'ny—" he began; then suddenly stopped and stared thoughtfully out of the window. He had not been bitten by Catling for nothing. "Think Toosaynte Lee Ovahchoo Brown bettah see a lawyw." He took his hat and rush into the street with the letter. In ten minutes he was in the law office of Weeks & Wharton. "Ho, ho, how be you, Mr. Brown?" said a kind-faced portly man at a desk. "You see I know you; my wife and I have just come from your matinee, I'm Mr. Weeks." "Mistah Weeks," said Toussaint, breathlessly, "I wants a 'stremely private talk with you." "With pleasure, sir," said Weeks, leading into a back room. "Mistah Weeks, I wants you right at my elbow to see dat nothin' ain't put ovah on me. I ben bit an' bit till dah ain't nothin' left to bite. Dat man Catlin' —" Cathing, you said the lawyer. "Catfish, you mean!" snapped Toussaint. And he told Mr. Weeks all about the Blanche Bruce deal. "Why," said the lawyer, "you might as well have bought, the house without seeing it. You didn't have the title searched, you didn't inspect the furnaces nor the plumbing, nor the condition of the walls and ceilings—why, you used less caution than you would in buying a hat. You should have seen a lawyer; or —" "Ise gwine. have a lawyah, evahmo!" After dis I ain't gwine hardly buy a milkshake or a seegar "thouten I sees a lawyah fust." "Goodl! I see why you make such a hit at the Sheba—it's just in you. I suppose, now, you want me to go after Catling, though I can't see —" "No, suhl!" interrupted Toussaint. "I ain't bothahed 'bout Catling'. But whut you think o' this?" Toussaint handed him the official letter from Albany. "Whatl" cried Weeks as he read the letter. "Yassuh," said Toussaint. "De state wants de Blanche Bruce ground fo' a armory." "You lucky man, to have a place that's wanted for an armory." "Now I wants to 'gage yo' services to see dat de state don't bite me. Cose, I don't think it would, but it mout have teeth, too. You cain't nevah tell." "All right, sir," said Weeks. "I'm with you." Two weeks later Toussaint and Mr. Weeks were cerebrating at Tannhieder's. The sale had been completed, and, thanks to Mr. Weeks, who had done all the talking, Toussaint had come out splendidly. The Blanche Bruce and all her attendant evils were off his hands and a profit of fifteen thousand dollars was in the bank. The local papers were full of the sale, and Toussaint was as happy as a bird out of a cage. As if to complete his triumph Ulysses B. Gatling entered Tannhierer's with some friends, just as Toussaint called for champagne Next Week—Last "Toosaynte Lee Ovahchoo Brown" Story—Toussaint in Wall Street.

The series may be revived later. make every member of the family sit up and take notice. The writer heard so much talk about "The Old Nest" that he decided to go and see the same. The comment of the author in pointing out the lesson, of course, was very good, but the picture showed that for lack of discipline in the home all the trouble was caused. A mother has all she can do to help the children with their lessons, mend their clothes, guard their morals, teach them the meaning of the Scriptures, aside from doing what this quotation says: "A man works from sun to sun, but a woman's work is never done." The thought presented in the first part of the preceding paragraph does not mean that the father should not render equal assistance in the instruction and education of the children. But for some reason the wife feels that all this belongs to her. Where the trouble in the whole picture lay, was that the mother would not allow the father to correct the children when they had done wrong. "Spare not the rod and spoil the children." The reader will, of course, say that I am not a mother. Right! But if you will pardon a personal reference, I would state that I have been widowed for over seven years, and was left with a little girl. seven years old, to care for. I, too, loved this child almost to distraction, but I did not love her so much that when it was necessary I did not punish her for wrongdoing. According to what was done was correction given. Usually it was a lecture, pointing out the danger fifteen years from then if she did the same thing. The present wife, her stepmother, has as much control over her as I have. When she is correcting her, I keep my hands off. I also let her know that I am married to my wife and not her. A mother once indulged her son until he became a murderer. When he was on the scaffold he called her to come to him, and, as if whispering to her, he bit off her ear. When asked why, he said: "Mother, if you had corrected me when I brought the first stolen pocket book home, instead of crying and feeling sorry, I would not have broken into the bank, and to escape kill the watchman." If the mother had kept her hands off when the father wanted to punish the children, they would not have lost respect for both. What she should have done was to let the father take his own course in correcting the children, matters not how much it hurt her. Then get to themselves and talk the matter over, and decide what to do to prevent a recurrence. See Hebrews, 12:9. Better, had she cried then than to have cried for them in her old age, year in and year out, when she needed them the most. In the picture they finally came back. But why did they go? Granting that some of them had legitimate excuses for going, why did they not care enough to write home? Was it a good time? Was it negligence? Was it because they thought themselves too good to write? Nol None of thesel! It was because the mother did not mix discretion with her love and refused to let the father exercise his right of chastisement and authority, and, of course, the children lost respect for both. Mothers, never come between the father and the child when he is correcting it! It must learn to respect some one, and by learning to respect the parents it learns to love them the more and respect the civil law. If the mother had taken the dress that missie had and had run some new lace in it and cut down the collar and brightened it up with some ribbon, the daughter would have been just as well satisfied. She failed to impress upon the child that HONOR in good clothes is better than dishonor in silks and satins. The girl at once went out and sold herself for more pretty things. The thought of marriage is the most holy and divine sacrament vouchsafed. to us by Almighty God! The cardinal principle should be love. When a woman sells herself to her husband just to get fine clothes, pleasure and the like, she has failed to realize that the greatest gift within her power has been bartered away for fine clothes. This ought to be a lesson to young girls. Do not take the last dollar in the house because you want to get to a dance to see the latest slick-haired, tight-clothes dancing "beau." Such men are not worth wasting your thoughts on, much less depriving your parents of the necessities of life to help you "look pretty" for his sake. There is absolutely no, one set rule in woman's dress.

A sash of the same color ribbon with a large rosette and streamers of the same ribbon on the side will save dollars, and, besides, the girl will feel that she has found a way to save, and that will make her an economic woman. Where a woman practices economy; she also practices self-assertiveness, and does not deny the same in her husband, who has a perfect right at any and all times to correct the children. The writer suggests that the reader look up Psalms, 94:12; Proverbs, 19:18; Revelations, 3:19; Second Cof., 6:9, and the following: Hebrews, 12:5, last clause, "My son, despise not thou the-chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of Him. Sixth verse, first clause, "For whom the Lord loveth, He chasteneth." Seventh verse, last clause, "For what son is he whom the father chasteneth?" Ninth verse, first clause, "Furthermore, we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence." In closing, the writer would state that there was a title which read: "DON'T LOVE YOUR CHILDREN TOO MUCH." No one can love their children too much, but one can INDULGE them TOO MUCH, and that is the cause of all the trouble in "The Old Nest." REV. J. LUTHER MARTIN. MANHATTAN ORCHESTRA DISSATISFIED WITH THE BAND CONTEST DECISION The Big Jazz Band contest at the Pythian Hall, Tuesday night, November 8, is causing quite a bit of comment because of the decision of Mr. Harold Sneed, who officiated as referee. It is stated that Mr. Sneed himself, after the contest, acknowledged the fact that he erred in awarding the decision. The applause at the end was about even. A number of musicians who were present, including one of St. Louis' most popular orchestra leaders, stated that Costello's Manhattan Jazz Band should have been awarded the prize, through points gained during the contest, as Costello's Orchestra was forced by the applause to play one selection three times, being the only orchestra applauded for a third encore. Mr. Costello himself made a big hit with the audience when playing the "Church Street Loving Blues." It was repeatedly heard about the hall that Bennie Washington of the Manhattan Orchestra was the best drummer; though not sensational, his time was perfect. It was pointed out that Costello's Band consisted of five pieces and Fates' Band six. The contest was one of the most interesting affairs in recent years. The Manhattan Orchestra has signified their willingness to meet any five-piece orchestra in the city, barring none, with leading musicians as judges, and not the public, for any amount at any place and any time.

Study of past experiences of colored American education and of present-day conditions surrounding the colored American girl, alike point to three definite purposes which must be kept in view when planning home economics courses; namely (1) improvement of the girl, (2) improvement of the home, and (3) improvement of the community. The home economics course which which does not make the girl a healthier, better dressed, more industrious, and more honest girl fails of its first purpose. The girl who has learned to care for and to control herself and to spend her money wisely has received the fundamental training necessary before she can be prepared to take her place as the head of a home or to assume those wider responsibilities which make for better community life wherein consideration for others must always have first place. The colored American home will show the results of school training that is effective, and only as it does will the needed improvement in community life be brought to pass. For many years to come home economics courses must be so planned that they can be effectively taught by these teachers who have been trained in the industrial schools. They are capable of doing good work and great numbers of them are doing effective work all over the South. Their work can be strengthened by wise supervision and by increased opportunities for summer school courses and other forms of advanced study. Southern Workman.

In addition to Dr. Aggrey, whose appearance was previously announced, Professor Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer of Howard University, Washington, D. C., and former associate of Booker T.

He spoke on "Present-Day Negro Thought," dealing with the problems of the colored group in America under post-war conditions and the reaction of the race toward its present situation, economically politically and socially. Bishop Robert E. Jones of New Orleans, the first colored Americans Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and former editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate, outlined the activities of the church for the betterment of the living conditions of the race. His topic was "Methodist Episcopal Church and the Negro." The Rev. W. A. C. Hughes. Director of the Bureau of Negro Work for the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension, Philadelphia, and Dr. P.

Mr. Secretary and Members of the Conference, Ladies and Gentlemen: It is a great and happy privilege to bid the delegates to this conference a cor- dial welcome to the capital, of the United States of America. It is not ‘only a satisfaction to greet you be- cause we were lately participants in a common cause, in which shared sac- fifices. and sorrows and triumphs /brought our nations more closely to- gether, but it is gratifying to address you as the spokesman for’ nations whose convictions and.attending ac- tions have so much to do- with the weal or woe of alf mankind. It is not possible to overappraise the importance of such a conference. It is.no unseemly boast, no disparage: ment of other nations which, though not represented, are held in highes! fespect, to declare that the conclu- sions of this body will lave a signal influence on all human progress—on). the fortunes of the world. Here is a meeting, I’ can well be- lieve, which is an earnest of -the awakened -conscience of twentieth century -civilization, It is not a con- vention of remorse, nor a session of sorrow. It is not the conference of| viétors tor define terms of settlement. Nor is it a council of nations seek- ing to remake humankind. It is rather a coming together, ‘from all parts of the earth, to apply the bet-) ter attributes of mankind to minimize the faults in our international rela- tionships. “~~ Speaking as official sponsor for the invitation, I think I’ may say ‘the call isnot of the United States of Amer- ica alone, it is rather the spoken, word of a war-wearied world, struggling for restoration, hungering and thirst- ing for better relationship; of human- ity erying for relief and craving as- gurance of lasting peace. It is easy to understand this world- wide aspiration. The glory of tri- umph,: the rejoicing in achievement, the love of liberty, the devotibn to country, the pangs of sorrow, the bur- dens of debt, the desolation of ruin—- all these aré appraised alike in all lands. Here in the. United States we are but freshly turned from the burial of an unknown American soldier, when a nation sorrowed while payitg | hirh tribute. Whether it was spoken | or not, a hundred millions of our peo- | ple were ‘summarizing® the, inexcus- | able causes, the inealculablb cost, the ,| unspeakable saciifices and jthe unut- ‘|terable sorrows, and therd was the .| ever-imipelling auestion:' How can ;| humanity: justify or God! ‘forgive? | Human hate demands no guch toll; ambition, and greed “must he denied _\ it” 1f misunderstanding mus take the ;]blame; then let us banish it, and le ‘| understanding rule and: make good “| will regnant everywhere.

Now in the’ Providence of God a world conference, which promisés far more - successful results. than came from the Versailles meeting, is in ses- sion right-at our very door. ‘The Jews have already arranged tc have their grievances stated and tc ask for relief because of the proscrip. tion under which they suffer through out the entire world. Shall we, as % people, who far outnumber the Jew: Jin the world,"allow this God-sent op |portunity to pass from: us unim | proved?

Civic conditions in the far Northeast section of the city are by no means up to the standard compared with the taxes the property owners have to pay. Now and then articles appear in this column touching upon some one particular phase concerning com- munity development. Increased police protection, better mail facilities and improved car service have already been stressed, and the next question is what are the citizens going to do toward getting some of these necessary conveniences? Just figure a while, then summarize, and the result will come. Better living is the answer. *** Last week's issue announced that Mr. William Rawlings of 601 48th Street Northeast was sick at his residence. The name should have been Mr. Daniel Rawlings. He is still confined to his room. Special meetings are being held held this week at the First Baptist Church, Deanwood, D. C. Several ministers have been engaged for the series. Rev. W. B. Bent, the pastor, is in charge. *** Mrs. Fannie King of 1025 Browning Street, Deanwood, D. C., who has been at Freedmen's Hospital for two weeks, is doing nicely.

A good crowd was out, and many favorable comments were heard praising the speaker for his excellent talk. The advisability of a sewing circle among the ladies of Glendale, D. C., is becoming neighborhood talk. It is pointed out that such a club would not only be instructive, but socially helpful. *** Quite a large number was present at the grand reception given by Mr. and Mrs. Canfield Bostic, 4901 Fitch Place Northeast, Thursday evening of last week, in honor of their guest, elsewhere mentioned in this column.

The remarkable progress made by the colored citizens of Fairfax County, Va., should serve to inspire similar effort for worthy causes elsewhere. For six years the colored fair had been held as an aftermath to the County Fair held by and for white people. After last year the leading men in charge of the fair decided to launch a scheme among colored people with a view of securing their own fair grounds. A company was organized and capitalized at $25,000. Four thousand dollars worth of its stock was put on the market May 1st, 1921, and was oversubscribed in forty days. The incorporators, after much shrewd business dealing, bought fifteen acres bordering one electric line, and five minutes walks of another. Twelve acres have been fenced and cleared, and eight buildings were erected in time to encompass the exhibits and seat spectators for auditorium and grandstand purposes. The seventh annual fair was held on October 12th and 13th, and was witnessed by approximately 2,800 people. Public order was good and the receipts totaled about $1,800. The colored fair project is a monument to the untiring efforts of President A. T. Shirley, Secretary W. A. West, Treasurer B. McDaniels, and the splendid men and women about the county, who were associated with them in their very able work. The directors elected in Vienna last week for the ensuing three years or parts thereof are as follows: A. T. Shirley, Herndon; W. A. Wett, Vienna; B. McDaniel, Fairfax; R. H. Quander, Spring Bank; Mrs. M. E. Holland, Accotink; Henry Hartman, Rockville; M. J. Walker, Francolnia; Mrs. Rose L. Dean, Vienna; Mrs. Matilda Wood, Seminary; Mrs. Mary E.

Leavengood, a widely known Kansas druggist, discovered a simple, easy to take prescription for Asthma—he gave it to the people who had suffered for years and, to their relief, gave them drugs they were equally cured—these people told their friends, and in this way thousands have found the sure way to cure Asthma. Mr. Leavengood feels so confident that prescriptions are no longer those that generously offers to send a big bottle on 10 days' Free Trial to any reader of this paper who will write for it. If it cures pay $1.25, otherwise you owe nothing. And no money, W. Bivd, Rosedale, Kansas, and the big bottle will be mailed immediately—Advertisement. VIGOR OF YOUTH IN A NEW DISCOVERY The new vitalizer contains expensive chemicals, but manufacturing in enormous quantities has brought the cost within the reach of all. Furthermore, the laboratories that produce it call Re-Nu-Tabs, are so confident of its power that they offer it on the basis of "no results, no pay." Any reader of this paper may test the new discovery without risk. Send no money; do not send money. Re-Nu Laboratories, 275 L Gateway Station, Kansas City, Mo., and a full treatment of Re-Nu-Tabs will be mailed. Deposit $2 and postage with the postman on delivery. If not delighted by the results at the end of a week, the laboratories will be re-enabled in full. Do not hesitate about accepting this test offer, as it is fully guaranteed.

By the Sage of the Potomac. you that I hastily left my pleasant -niemories of Dunbag_High School at noon to go in quést of Graves’ lunch- room. “On reaching North Capito and Q Streets I saw a mass of people lined up on the outside of a building ‘opposite the Governnient Printing Office. For a-brief moment I became a’ bit bewildered. 1 .was expecting to find.-a cafe'there, but from. the human line up I fancied it to be a the: atre. Just as I was’ about to turn in another -direction I was jostled by pedestrian, who was speeding by me ‘What theatre is that over there where the crowd .is? I- asked.” Curtly anc quickly he replied, “It's no theatre it’s Graves’ Cafe.” Before 1. could obtain any further information, he too, had joined the long line and wa: awaiting service. ; When I saw’ him in line, I ‘under. stood his curt reply. He was hungry In.the ‘cafe we were seated together at the same table; and after he ‘had eaten ‘his lunch he» became . more agreeable. I found Mr. Gasway, the ‘gentleman in question, a very pleas- ant: man, and an employee oi.. the Goverment Printing Office. But you, talk ‘about service. We centainty had the best of it at Graves’ Cafe. How did I know of it? I read the ad in the Washington .Bee. . This paper always carries’a list.of the best ads. After lunch I retraced -ray steps on my,,way home, but when’I reached P Street I saw the Armstrong Man¢ ual Training School looming up be- fore me. Before me appeared in, thought its former principal and his splendid work,‘upon which I ‘mused for a while. And then I thought of my friend Captain Newman, who is. the present head of ‘the high-school. Not having ‘chatted with him for more than a, month, 4: thought that I'd stop just long enough to say “How do you do?” and “good-bye.” On entering the: building I found éverybody:so busy with preparations for Armistice Day that to intrudé on their time would have been criminal on my part. Knowing the -building so well, I started out to entertain my- self, As I strolled from room to room and from’ basement to garret, I was impressed with. the quiet, peaceul, -pleasant, homelike air of the school. ‘The thought flitted through my brain that this school would be a fitting model for the Disarmament ‘Confer- ence to study lessons of “Peace” and the dispensation of “Justice’” to all. ‘These are Captain ‘Newman's: strong points; hence his great success. Captain Newman was one of our boys, who was in the front: line of trenches November 11, 1918. So you can readily see why this Armistice Day, means so mich to him.

This is what.the gov. ernments of France, and Great Brit ‘ain aided, by the governments of Ja pan and the. United States helped to do to Russia: They did it chiefly ‘be- cause French bankers wanted to. be répaid*the loans they made to the rotten despotism of the now departed czar's government. . Germany is burdened with an enor- mous, indemnity which her. people have to pay to the victors in the war, But those victors want to kill the cow for meat and still get milk from that. cow. “They, and especially France, want to’ crush Germany, and still-have her pay for the cost of war damages. % ‘ . What has all this’ to do with the Armament» Conference? Simply this,’ that that part of Eu- rope, namely Germany and Russia, which ought fo be, furnishing the world, with vast stores of grain and other foods, which ‘ought to be, busy manufacturing its own products and exchanging them for the products of other countries, is rapidly becoming’ a hideous’ wreck. And so, instead of trying with every resource at their command to help’Russia and Ger- many to ‘their feet, the other “govern- ments of the world are looking for new fields to plunder. Those fields lie in China: and Si- beria. Before the great war even, al- most every . government of Europe had. made inroads on China, Those infoads consisted in “concessions,” or “spheres: of influence” generally cen- tering in some “treaty port.” - Great Britain in the Chinese city of Hong Kong and France in what is how called Indo-China, acquired the right to have their own courts and even their own police and past offices. Germany had “teased” the ‘city of Tsing-Tao in the Province of Shan- tung and Japan during the war cap- tured Tsing-Tao ‘and took over: the lease which, translatéd .into English means stole the territory. Japan had préviously, after: the Russo-Japanese war, acquired Manchuria and half the sland of Saghalin from Russia. Moreover, -Japan rules" over’: the Koreans. Every one of these robber govern- nents kept protesting that they want- d ‘the “open door” in China, which neans that all citizens are to be ac- | corded equal opportunities to trade here. In practice, however,-cach gov- rament made it practically impossible or the citizens of other governments o do business in its “sphere “of in- crest.” And So the scramble'for con- essions became keener and more in- cnse. - Any goveriment whose bank- rs dwn the rights to a railway line nywhere in China, can control the erritory adjacent to that railway line, yhether.the rails are laid or not. So he diplomats, the ambassadérs and ninisters; instead of being servarits of he people in their countries, become he agents of the bankers-who exert ‘ontrol over the governments. And, n great part at least, the world is hreatened with; the disaster of fur- her, war, and the wiping out, of civi- ization, because bankers are scramb- ing for. railways in China.” If proof were needed that, our own Department of State acts as an agent or bankers, it could be found in the ‘ollowing paragfSph from the New York Times, of November 7, 1921: “China has failed to meet payments f principal and interest on the loan lue tlie Continental and Commercial Trust and Savings Bank of Chicago, ue to’ have.been paid October 3}. This default has creaetd a very un- avorable impression in official and anking circles in the United States, s well as abroad, accdrding to infor- nation obtained .in an authoritative warter tonight, and has been made he: occasion of a sharp note from ‘ecretary Hughes to ‘the Peking. gov- rnment, calling its ‘atention most eriously to its responsibilities and bligations in the ‘matter.” ' gs : NATIONAL TRAINING SCHOOL DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA A SCHOOL FOR THE TRAINING OF COLORED YOUNG. : .

This country, too; has to look for .néw sources of raw materials ‘and new markets to sell her goods in. Eu- rope cannot buy from us. Europe is rotten with bankruptcy. I heard the other day of a ship: captain who brought a cargo to: Néw York from Scotland. He ‘is ‘taking his vessel back to Scotland ‘empty.’ There are others like him. The United States has a “good ex- cuse for being interested in the Pacific Ocean. “It nows owns’the Philippine Islands which are much sifarer to Ja- pan and China ‘than they' are to-the United States. It-does not want Ja- pan to have that cable center in the Pacific ‘Ocean, the Island of Yap, or to take any part of the Pacific coast line of Mexico, or Central or South America. : There are other » complications. During ‘the world war, Great Britain had a secret ‘treaty with Japan. Ja- pan’s navy held down the German “commerce raiders” or war cruisers:in the Pacific. Japanesé warships con- yoyed British troops. Japan ‘was Great Britain’s guaranty against revo- lution in India by keeping Great Brit ain's lines of communication open to he’ Far East.
