The Washington Tribune High Schools Being Commercialized PRINCIPAL MINER NORMAL AND TEACHER AT DUNBAR VIOLATE SCHOOL LAW All the News That's Fit to Print VOL. I, No. 24. High PRINCIPAL MIN AND TEACH VIOLAT Superintendent Wilkinson Makes Investi- There is much unfavorable comment being heard about the seeming attempt on the part of some of our public school officials and teachers to boost certain business enterprises through the medium of the public school children and teachers. It has been learned on good authority that the recently appointed principal of Miner Normal School, Mr. Eugene Clarke, not long ago called a special assembly of the school, pupils and teachers, for the purpose of distributing passes to the Republic Theater. It has been also learned on good authority that Mr. Clyde McDuffie, a teacher at Dumbar High School, in the course of his class work, advised and instructed his pupils to be patrons of the Republic Theater—where they could see high-class educational pictures. The inference in both of these instances would be that none of the other theatres were showing pictures suitable to be seen by the students, which of course is not the case, nor would either of these or other responsible persons, dare to so state. We learn that such activities are in violation of the public school law, which is specifically intended to prevent the schools from being commercialized openly or covertly. Further, it is pointed out, such activities on the part of teachers would tend to "educate" our youth into supporting enterprises operated by men of the other race, deliberately set up to crush out the creditable and successful enterprises within our group and for our group, upon which, in the end, our children must depend for whatever commercial and business development they are to receive. One school official, whose attention was called to these violations of both the school law and racial loyalty said: "It is high time this class of teachers, if guilty of setting such a poor example before our children, should be relieved of the responsibility imposed upon them as the guardians of the training of our youth." A reporter for the Tribune was told by Mr. Garnet C. Wilkinson, assistant superintendent of public schools that on investigating the matter after his attention had been called to it, it was found that tickets had been given out at Miner Normal School and that the same was without authority of any of the proper school official, and was against the school law. BUTLER BROTHERS TRIAL POSTPONED The trial of the Butler Brothers set for the 18th was postponed owing to the prohibition officer who conducted the raids on their homes being out of the city. The case was due to come up before Judge Hitt, U. S. Commissioner, Tuesday. It was postponed for a date to be determined upon later. ROBINSON BOYS IN SCHOOL Mr. Geo. A. Robinson has recovered damages from the Irvin School, at Tarrytown-on-the-Hudson, N. Y., for refusing admission to his two boys, after an official of the school had visited them and endorsed their application for admission. The boys are now in school in New Hampshire. Published Weekly School ER NORMAL R AT DUNBAR E SCHOOL LAW PARENTS LEAGUE STARTS DRIVE FOR GIRLS' HOME To Serve Girls Who Work And Who Need Home Environments At the meeting of the Parents' League Monday night, the report of the executive committee, advising the purchase of a community house by the League for the benefit of the girls of the city who need a decent home, was adopted and plans are being made for purchasing and opening a community house by January First. Workers have been placed in the field already with books and receipts for a drive to secure means with which to purchase a community house. Mrs. F. S. Tanner, the president speaks encouragingly of the big opportunity for the Parents' League and says that there is much constructive work for them to do. "We want a community house," said the president, "to help these girls who must work for a living and yet must have a decent place to stay. They cannot pay more than $2.00 per week for a room and we feel that we can give them a good clean bed and nice room at about that price. We will also have a sewing room in this house for real constructive work. The classes are all right but we must look after the masses." In its program of service, the League equipped one girl last week with shoes, hose, underwear and cap which cost $10.18 and she was able to enter the city schools. The mother of the child wrote a warm letter of appreciation for she said that she did not see how she was going to be able to clothe the child. The next meeting of the League will be held Monday night, November 7, 1921, at Vermont Avenue Baptist Church. KLAN HEARING CLOSES HERE The examination of the Imperial Wizard of the Invisible Empire, of the Ku Klux Klan finished Monday and Chairman Campbell of the Rules committee, said that the investigation would close until a subsequent meeting when other members who are away can acquaint themselves with the data. It is evident that there will be no Congressional investigation of the Klan. The Department of Justice and the Post Office Department may handle the individuals responsible for the infringements in their departments; but the Klan as an organization will not be investigated. It is thot that there are too many members of the Klan in both houses of Congress who will defeat a Congressional investigation. The Klan is a power to be considered in future elections. A Judge in San Antonio, Texas, gave the proper instruction about the Klan parading there. He said: "Shoot first and investigate afterward." If every real American citizen will make that their rule, the Klan will soon be shot up and paradings will cease. --- WASHINGTON, D. C.

UNIVERSAL COAL COMPANY OPENS UP NEW FIELD Has Increased Capital Stock to $100,000 to Meet Their Expanding Business The Universal Coal Company is among the latest industrial companies to enter the capital city, of the colored group. About three months ago they organized, incorporated and began selling stock. Two weeks ago they began unloading coal at their yards in southwest section of the city. The Universal opened its office on U St., near 14th. There are two persons employed in the office and ten men at the yards on South Capital and I streets. They have three trucks for the delivery of their coal and orders are coming fast enough to keep them all busy. The company was capitalized for $10,000 but that proved to be too small and now articles are being filed to increase the capital to $100,000. This will give them sufficient capital to increase their yard capacity, their delivery force and also lay in larger supplies of coal and wood. Mr. James H. Waugh, the president said the people are rallying to the Universal faster than he expected and the way they have supported the company presages a big and successful business for the company. Miss Martha E. Magruder is the secretary of the company and gives her entire time to the office work. She said that orders for both stock and for coal were coming in rapidly. "We have no complaint whatever to offer, for the people are demonstrating their loyalty to race enterprises by the way they are supporting our company." The Universal is getting its coal from the Pennsylvania mines and the officers do not think the railroad strike will tie up their supply. This is a new organization that is already giving employment to about fifteen people. Howard Theatre To Celebrate Its 10th Anniversary Was First Big House For Colored People in the United States The week commencing Monday, October 24th marks the tenth anniversary of Howard Theatre. This house was the first house of any size to be erected in this country for Colored patronage. Like many others, it was opened under white ownership and Colored management, but, operating under such conditions, the house proved a distinct failure. Later it fell into the hands of Mr. Andrew Thomas, who, year after year, since his acquisition has striven untiringly to give to his patrons, the best attractions, irrespective of cost, and despite the many adverse theatrical situations that have recently menaced the general welfare of houses that are controlled by Race men throughout the country. In commemoration of its tenth anniversary and in another effort to please, the management has contracted for some of the greatest vaudeville attractions ever seen in this city. Some of these vaudeville bills represent an outlay of several thousands of dollars and they include some of the rarest novelties in vaudeville and expensive European novelties, such as are only seen in Keith and Shubert houses. The opening bill includes such big time material as Chappelle and Stinette, in Songs; Wilson and Wilson, high-class comedians; Ah ling Loo, the Mysterious Chinaman; Gertie Miller, in a Variety offering; Brown and Demont, former Washingtonians, in Songs and Dances and Mooney's Circus. A review of these acts gives the assurance of a most wonderful inaugural program. Coming week of Oct. 31, at the Supper Show; Cecil B. DeMille's greatest screen achievement "The Affairs of Anatol" with twelve stars will be featured. It is said to be the Most Beautiful Production of the Decade. PREPARATION FOR HOWARD-LINCOLN GAME COMPLETE Quarters for Teams and the Admission Price are Announced Philadelphia, Penna.—According to announcements from Graduate Manager W. G. Alexander and Student Manager A. D. Williams, all of the details for the annual Lincoln-Howard game, are about complete. The management of the National League park where the football classic will be staged, is endeavoring to make a different arrangement of the field so as to give a better view for all of the spectators. The range of prices for seats will be the same as two years ago—front box seats $2, rear box seats $1.50 each, with grand stand seats at $1. The general supervision of admission and reception will be in charge of Mr. C. M. Cain of Atlantic City, N. J. The Howard team will be quartered to the Y. M. C. A., and this will also be the headquarters of the Howard men. The Lincoln team will have their headquarters at the Berean Club. The Lincoln men will have headquarters at the Hotel Dale. The Philadelphia Alumni Associations, representing Howard and Lincoln, are arranging to make the stay of all visitors in the city pleasant. Dr. T. S. Burwell, representing Lincoln, and Dr. T. L. Powell, representing Howard, will be in charge of the entertainment features. Tickets for the same are on sale now. BEGINNING THIS WEEK The Best Children's Page ever run in a weekly newspaper.

Must Seek Larger Quarters The Washington College of Pharmacy is taking its place in the city as one of the institutions worthy of note. It has an enrolment of fifty earnest seekers after knowledge. There are six persons in the Senior year; 18 in the Junior year and 26 entering the first year. This is doubtless the largest Pharmaceutical school in the country. The faculty of the Washington College of Pharmacy is practically the same as that of the Frelinghuyson school last year and Mrs. Wm. H. Jackson, who finished the course there in June, passed the Board of Pharmacy here last week. The personnel of the faculty is as follows: The chair of Chemistry is filled by Dr. H. C. Scurlock, assisted by Drs. Herriot and Banks. Materia Medica and Therapeutics is taught by Dr. P. J. Gilmer, assisted by Drs. Ross and Wilder, Jr. Dr. W. C. Goins fills the chair of Theoretical Pharmacy, assisted by Drs. Simmons and Burwell. Dr. Geo. M. Herriot and Dr. Davis have Pharmaceutical Arithmetic and Stoichiometry. Botany and Pharmacognosy is taught by Drs. Whipps, Douglass and Butcher. Dr. Wilder, Jr. has the chair of Bacteriology and Physiology. The Art of Compounding is taught by Dr. Wm. H. Jackson. The Laboratory work is under the instruction of Drs. Simmons and Burwell. Special lectures are to be given by Drs. Wilder, Sr., and Claude T. Carichael. Dr. Wm. H. Jackson, secretary-treasurer of the college says that the outlook for the school is most promising and that there are other applications yet to be received. The officials are elated with the flattering number enrolled with the flattering number the need of the night school in this city. Already they are looking for larger quarters in which to house the school. STANDARD INVESTMENT CO.GIVES BANQUET Many interesting speeches were made at the banquet of the Standard Investment and Development Company, Monday night at the Ideal Cafe on 14th Street. Dr. W. L. Board, president of the corporation, presided. In his opening remarks he spoke of the race as a sleeping giant and said: "Shall we forever sleep or shall we awake this giant to the many opportunities?" He said the giant was asleep because he was doped. That we have permitted superstition and the fear (along with the belief that everything, white was pure and trustworthy) to paralyze our innate powers. "We need awake to our economic opportunity," said Dr. Board, "conserve our labor and use our money to the best advantage." In speaking of our economic and industrial condition here in Washington, Dr. Board said: "We have $40,000,000 on deposit in the white banks. They are using that money to build (Continued on page 8) 2 NORTH CAROLINA TAKES FOR- WARD SYEP_IN SOLVING THE SOUTHS RACE PROBLEM - (By rae Aery) Hampton, Va., Oct. 15—The present North Carolina program of Negro ed- ucation and health—State and local —provides for spending $4,000,000 in the near future. Some fifteen years ag North Carolina was spending $4,000,000 annually for the education of all its citizens—white and colored. Dr. B. C. Brooks, State superinten- deht éf public instruction and Prof. N. @. Newbold, director of the State division of Negro education, held a coliférétice recently at Shaw Univer- sity, Raleigh, N. C., and presented to the leading Negroes of North Carolina —ropreseintative educators, ministers, business mén, doctors, lawyers, lodge and club officers, Y. M. C. A. and ¥. W. C. A. workers, and editors—the State’s unified programs of education, health, agriculture and public wel- fare. This conference was held with a view to securing the active co-opera- tion of the Negro leaders in spreading the good news of North Carolina’s con- structive program. State Appropriations That public sentiment is in favor of giving more adequate support to Negro schools—elementary, secondary, normal, technical, and collegiate—is shown by the General Assembly appro- priations, which amount to $935,000 and which include the following impor- tant items: Buildings and equipment, three State normal schools .....-- +++ -$500,000 Maintenance, three State normal schools (annual) ....... 75,000 Division of Negro education (an- Tual) ..eeeeeeeeseeeees 15,000 Teacher-training and private schools (annual) ....-.- 15,000 ‘Teacher-training and summer schools (estimated, annual) 20,000 High-school and vocational educa- tion (estimated annual) 30,000 Building and improvement, Agri- cultural and Technical Col- lege, Greensboro, N.C. .- 115,000 Maintenance, A. and T.

During the summer of 1921 over 3000 Negro teachers (that is, 90 per cent) in North Carolina attended summer schools. These better-trained teachers will receive additional pay. This means that Negro teachers in North Carolina will receive during the pres- ent school year more than $1,500,000 in salaries. It is also encouraging to know that a large school-building pro- gram is now well under way. For country schools there will be spent $279,000 and for urban schools there will be spent $1,246,850, or a total of $1,525,250 for country and urban Ne gro schools. Square-deal Program Several hundred “missionaries o peace and good-will” received, in th spirit of real thanksgiving, the gla tidings of North Carolina’s progran for her Negro citizens’ advancement Governor Morrison, like his predeces sor (the beloved Thomas W. Bickett) stands solidly behind this liberal Stat program for Negroes. He has ex pressed his desire to give all the citi zens of the State a square deal. Hi has the moral and financial support o: the white citizens in this State-wid policy. Appeal for Co-operation “We have not reached the milleniun in North Carolina,” said Directo Newbold. “We are, however, going i the right direction. Will you go bacl into your communities and oil th machinery of progress or will you throw rocks in the way? North Caroli na is sincere in this work for it colored people. The State wants ti make conditions better than they hav ever been. Will you tell the leader and the people about North Carolina’ hopes and plans? We must all wor! together to make North Carolina wha it should be. Our State cannot b what it should be unless she does wha she should do for all classes.” Teaching People to Live Superintendent Brooks declared tha North Carolina has been building o1 the solid basis of truth. “Society mus teach men how to live,” he said. “Par ents in particular must teach thei children how to live. This is the firs time in the history of North Carolin: when we have come together to la: the foundation for you to build : eollege for'your children, We hav a basis on’ which to build.

I believe you are going to teach your children to live. “People are everywhere coming to the point where they are ready to minister to Negro needs. I am proud of North Carolina, whose white and Negro groups are working for better- trained teachers. We are organizing along saner lines. Need of Sanity “We shall go forward, unless too much selfishness creeps in. Mistakes that are made, either by white or colored people, will be corrected. All of us must adopt a policy of sanity towards defécts, sanity towards pro- gress, and sanity towards social re- lations. “In North Carolina we have the best relations between the races. We are spending now for Negro educa- tion almost as much as we were spend- ing fifteen years ago for white and Ne- gro education. Progress in Race Relations Dr. James Hardy Dillard, president of the Jeanes and Slater Boards, said: “Great forward movements are al- ways slow. We must live here in friendship. We have no time to hate. We must do things. A righteous God rules the universe. We are headed right. Let us band together those who try to love justice, courage, and faith. There has been a steady progress toward better race relations during the last fifty years.” GUESTS AT WHITELAW W. H. Hatchett, Richmond, Va. John T, Hammonds, Commerce, Tex.

Business and Commerce FAITH ELIMINATES OBSTACLES “According to thy faith be it unta thee,” is just as scientific in this world of affairs as any demonstrated truth of science. Unless you have ofie-hundred per cent faith in your ability to do the thing you set your heart on, your efforts will be in No indiffer. ehee, no Gidiiing Yalbnocees ‘work will ageomplish it. “He only cam, who thinks he cab.” _ If you have only fifty per cent of faith and fifty per cent of doubt and fear of the outcome of what you are trying to do, yout chances of success will be correspondingly weak. If you have twenty-five per cent of doubt and seventy-five per cent of faith, you will be handicapped by just that twenty-five per cent, which may be the deciding factor in an important deal. It is the men with one-hundred per cent of faith, the men who kill their doubts, strangle their fears, and push to the front regardless of obstacles, who win out in life. So long as you live in an atmosphere saturated with thot of failure, you can not do the biggest thing possible to you, because you can not have a hundred per cent faith. Your achievements, your suc- cess, will depend upon your percent- age of faith in yourself and in what you are trying to do. _ It requires a deal of faith for the business man going thru this period of reconstruction to hold on regard- ies of the present outlook. Faith has always accomplished the “impossible,” because it has the elements which connects men with the Source of all supply. It requires one-hundred per cent faith in one’s ability to enter business now. However, those that are in business and those that are en- ‘tering business, find there is business to be done; and the man that has un- conquerable faith in his ability, in his ‘business and in his future is the man ‘that is listening to the music of the \bell on the cash register.

E. Cor. 11 & U Sts., NW. Phone N. 2125 EXTRA SPECIAL! Dissatisfaction is widespread among colored people regarding the attitude the Republicans have taken toward them. In every state where colored people vote, there is dissatisfaction and in many of them independent parties are being formed with the view of defeating many of the Republican Congressmen coming up for re-election next year. Ohio, the President's own state, has revolted. Kentucky, just across the river, is on a rampage with a formidable organization and the colored newspapers lined up behind it. Virginia, just across the River from the White House, has revolted and a complete State ticket has been named for this fall's election. The dissension, dissatisfaction and distrust is national in scope and J. R. Pollard, "State Chairman of the Republican Party" of Virginia, has issued a call for leading Negroes to meet in Washington November 1st, to devise plans, ways and means for a national organization among colored people which will help defeat the Republicans in 1922. The call follows: "By virtue of a resolution adopted by the good people of Virginia in the state convention assembled in the city of Richmond on the fifth day of September, 1921, authorizing and directing me so to do, a national mass convention is hereby called to meet in the city of Washington, D. C., at noon, Tuesday the 1st Day of November, 1921, for the purpose of taking such action as may be deemed necessary to place our grievances before the country and formulate plans to remedy the same. "Every organized institution, sacred or secular is urged to send a delegate or delegates to said convention and every individual—male or female—white or colored, who subscribes to the views herein set out, is invited to unite under this call. Credentials for those wishing to attend may be had upon written application addressed to me at national headquarters, Whitelaw Hotel, 13th and T Streets, Washington, D. C. J. R.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1921 DYE IT BROWN OR BLUE 24 HOURS SERVICE University Notes The Student Council of the University has organized. Mr. Z. Alexander Looby was elected president. The members elected from classes were as follows: Senior class, Mr John Miles, and Miss Margaret Smith; Junior class, Mr. Edward Simmons and Mr. John Urskins; Sophomore class, Mr. J. Oscar Beaubian and Mr. Frederick Harold Robb Miss Sadye Margarette Spense is acting secretary at present. This organization had its birth a year ago. Its purpose is to work in conjunction with the Academic faculty as to the general interests of the student body. This organization has power over all of the student activities of the University. Glee Club to Organize The Glee Club will soon be reorganized under Professor Roy W Tibbs. Applications are now being accepted. Examinations as to those eligible will be held in the Howard Conservatory of Music on Friday afternoon from 12:30 o'clock to 1:30 o'clock. The work of the Glee Club last year was excellent. The Club gave several concerts on the campus and in the community. The trip to Hampton was a very successful one. The club expects greater things this year. The membership campaign of Y. M. C. A. is still on at the University. Three hundred members is the goal: Mr. Lewis K. McMillan. Freshman Football The Freshman football team started work under Coach Morrison Tuesday evening at 2:30 o'clock on the campus. The Freshies thought the first workout to be very tough. They will soon be acquainted with Doc. The team will probably meet the Local High Schools on the Gridiron: Dunbar and Armstrong, also Storer and Morgan Colleges respectively. The team promises the Sophomores a warm reception. Mr. Franklin Terry is president of the Freshman Class. Revives Class Spirit On Friday evening October 14, at 8:00 p. m. the student body of Howard University thronged the old memorial chapel to regain the "old spirit" which has kept the Blue and White sky high. The football team walked in amid cheers. Then came the R. O. T. C. band which rendered several numbers and accompanied the students in singing their football songs. Mr. Burris and Nichols, official cheer leaders, led many snappy yells and songs. They filled the Freshies full of pep, vim and Howard spirit. Captain Fuller and Mr. Bledsoe of the team made short and interesting talks demonstrating the help and courage that the yells and songs give to the players. Dramatics Saturday morning October 15, at 10:00 o'clock, the Dramatic Club met in Library Hall. Professor Gregory cited from authoritative sources some of the tested prerequisites which help to make a successful Dramatist. Mrs. Forrest then spoke briefly on the "Importance of Dramatics and their Personal Value or Development to the student." She asserted various ways in which Dramatics may help the student. Mrs. Forrest examined a few of the prospective members of the Club, from the standpoint of emotion, feeling and elocation and felt very much satisfied as to the result of the showing. Mr. Tobias Speaks Mr. C. H. Tobias at the chapel exercises held in Rankin Memorial Chapel at noon October 11, gave the students a very encouraging talk on the work of the Y. M. C. A. Mr. Tobias is one of our ablest leaders. His experiences of students and their activities of the various institutions in all sections of the country, and his wonderful experiences of war torn Europe, from which he has recently returned makes him a desire of the students to hear. At the Tuesday mornings chapel services, Dean Kelly Miller of the Junior College gave the student body a very interesting lecture on the importance of chapel attendance. A Note from the Class of '24 The class of 1924 (Howard University) is now making preparations for the days of warfare. This class is composed of some of the bright lights of the Institution figuratively speaking. These young men especially have outstanding features and characteristics; they are fiery, energetic and possess the ability to do good in whatever part of the University's activities that they are in connection. The try outs for the debating team will be held in the latter part of the week. Mr. Gilbert and Mr. Robb of the Varsity debating team are busy at work whipping into shape the material of the class. The football team has organized with twenty-nine candidates in the field for the razoo back eleven. Mr Blackburn of last year's team is assisting in their preparation for the annual clash with the Freshies. Mr. Robert Mantz is President of the class. Watch the Class of '24. The Medical School The year of 1921-22 bids fair to be a record breaking one in the history of the medical Department of Howard University. Especially is this so in the line of the enrollment of students of the various departments. There are upwards of one hundred students in the freshman medical class and about half as many in the freshmen classes in pharmacy. There are many new students who are beginning their second year of work in the various departments of the medical school at Howard, which fact illustrates the high standard being maintained by H. U's Medical Department in comparison with the numerous other Medical Colleges of the country. Class Activities Realizing the need of organization the various classes of the Medical Department at Howard have begun their elections of officers. The freshmen Medical Class, taking the initial step in this direction, elected officers for the ensuing year as follows: Wm. F. Nelson, President; M. G. Lucas, Vice-President; Miss Myra Smith, Secretary; J. R. Dyett, Treasurer; T. McKinney, Chaplain; J. R. Nurse, Athletic Director. Great things are expected from this class! The National Board of Medical Examiners On Wednesday Oct. 12, Mr. Everett S. Elwood, Managing Director of the National Board of Medical Examiners of the United States, addressed the students of the Medical Department of Howard upon the object and purpose of the National Board of Medical Examiners. He related briefly the activity of the Board since its organization in 1915 by Dr. W. L. Rodman, then President of the American Medical Association, the purpose of the Board being "to establish in this country a standard qualifying examination which could be safely accepted by all State Boards of Medical Licensure as an adequate qualification for the practice of medicine." He related the progress of the Board during the past five years, citing its recognition now by many of the European countries. The students were told how they could as undergraduates, receive certificates of the National Board of Medical Examiners upon the fulfillment of certain requirements. At the Wednesday morning chapel services Mr. Howard Wesley of the Conservatory of Music, entertained the student body on the violin. In introducing the musician Dr. Durkea made a very brief comment on his record. Mr. Wesley finished the New England Conservatory of Music, and also received a certificate for post-graduate work done there. Dunbar Notes Free French Class The French classes held last year at the Dunbar High Community Center by Professor d'Ouakil of the Congressional Institute were so great a success that the Professor has consented to give another course this year, beginning the first of November. He will also give a course in Spanish-provided the classes in each case reach at least 100 persons. There is no charge for these lessons, only a registration fee of fifty cents to cover cartage of charts used during the course.

Unfortunately, the show was witnessed by a severely critical audience that was mean and stingy with its applause. Only offerings that were deemed super-excellent efforts, received any recognition. After about two and a half hour's deliberations; the show was found guilty of being "non-entertaining," but it was placed on probation for one season. This engagement marked their second week out on the road; the show having made its premier appearance at Gibson's Standard, Philadelphia, where according to reports it was well received by several appreciative audiences. Coming to the Howard at this time, following closely upon the heels of the Smarter Set show, which left a blazing trail in its wake, this show failed to function as an evening's divertissement, but, it may improve with age. Though the stage and costumes were new and exceptionally attractive, old jokes and old songs were the most profound features of the first part. There were six indigent end men, upon whom rested much of the responsibility of laugh-making, but the burnt cork artists simply sat there, moving only when the "spirits" moved them. There are several good vocalists and eccentric "foot-flingers" who would have more favorably impressed, had they used songs and pattern of more recent editions. The olio included; Jim Crosby, known as the "Tall Talker," one of the best minstrel men in the game and formerly of the Dandy Dixie Minstrels; Thelma, the Great, female impersonator; Happy Simpson, tramp acrobatic barrel jumper; Wells and Wells, clever trapeze artists and a quartette known as the "Harmony Four." The after piece, a feeble revival of the "ante-bellum" days, afforded little or no entertainment for the present day type of Race show folk. The production is particularly adaptable for white patronage ONLY. The show, after a thorough revision, should do well on the Shubert time, on which it begins after playing two or three more Colored houses in some of the seaboard cities of Virginia. HOWARD THEATRE DOES RE- MARKABLE BUSINESS During last week, the Howard Theatre management noted with some degree of satisfaction and bountious gratitude to the public for the remarkable support that was displayed during the engagement of the Smarter Set company's presentation "Up and Down," one of the best productions that has been seen here for years. "Vince" Thomas said: "Last week's business clearly demonstrates that if you will give the public the best attractions that can be possibly obtained, there will be no question of sufficient patronage." "What the Public Wants" is one of the most perplexing questions (Continued on page 8) THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1921 Baseball & Football Baseball & Football ATHLETICS WIN CITY CHAMP IONSHIP The Post Series played under the auspices of the Managers Asosciation of this city, closed last Sunday with a thrilling game between the Athletics and St. Cyprians, with the Athletics winning in the last few innings of play. Two games were scheduled for Sunday, but the teams refused to show up and therefore the games were postponed. The teams refusing to play, were The Piedmonts and the Red caps. These games were forfeited to the Athletics and St. Cyprians. The Athletics easily won, with the St. Cyprians in second position. The Series was the first ever staged in Washington and proved beyond a doubt that the public is anxious to have baseball placed on a higher plane here. It is the object of the managers to keep the organizations intact and present a complete line up next year in the form of a local league. The attendance at the games was fine and gave much encouragement to the promoters. The Athletics through their manager, Mr. L. Tolliver, stated that their team will remain intact for the coming season. This year they played forty-one games and lost only six. LIGHT WEIGHT TEAM DESIRES GAMES The Junior Social Settlers had their first meeting last Wednesday night. Edward Cooke was elected President, Winfred Faucete, Vice - President, James Grayson, Secretary, E. Coleman, Treasurer; Lester Turner, Assistant Secretary; Edward Chambers, Attorney; and Denzel Jackson, Sergeant-at-Arms. It was decided that the club would place a football team in the field this year. They have issued challenges to any team weighing around 105 to 115 pounds. Any teams wanting games may obtain same by writing to 1821 Fifteenth Street, N. W. POLLARD AND ROBESON ON AKRON TEAM Fritz Pollard, the former Brown star and Paul Robeson, the former Rutgers demon, are now playing on the independent team of Akron, Ohio. The team is composed chiefly of players who were former college stars and has gained national fame. This is Pollard's third season with the aggregation. On Saturday, October 15, on Howard Campus, the Howard eleven trampled over the Agricultural and Technical College of Greensboro, N. C. The enthusiasm exhibited by the student body, the inspiring and encouraging strains coming from the R. O. T. C. band and the extensive and thorough training of the Howard squad, were responsible for the victory. Howard played straight football throughout the game. She showed her superiority over her opponent team from start to finish. A. & T. however grew stronger and more courageous in the last half of the game. Doneghy and Payne were the stars of the day. Much credit goes to Doneghy for his 30 and 35 Coming Next Week Oct. 31st to Nov. 4th.

Walker and Johnson also deserve much credit for such a splendid showing in their first years work with the varsity. In the fourth quarter, Johnson substituted Nurse; and Walker substituted Williams. It was Howard's first down and she was about 35 yards from the goal. Kean passed to Johnson. Johnson lost the ball on being downed but Moslen regained it. Doneghy then passed to Walker and Walker scored a touchdown. Those two raw men deserve commendation for their excellent showing.

INDEPENDENTS OPEN SEASON The 1921 independent football season was opened Sunday at 17th and D streets, S.E., between the Lafayette Athletic Club of Alexandria, Va., and the Buffalo Club of N. E. The Buffalos got by a score of 13 to 7. The game was well played from the players' standpoint. Clean and fast throughout. The Buffalos got off to a flying start, making two touchdowns from forward passes in the first 6 minutes of play. Thereafter the Lafayetes continually kept the ball in the Buffalos' territory and as time was called were within 10 yards of scoring their second touchdown. Both teams showed lack of practice, as fumbles and misjudgements were numerous. Boyd Williams, the right end for the Lafayettes played a game well worth seeing. The back field of the Lafayettes, Majors, Murray, J. B. Diggs and Robinson, gained consistently through the Buffalo line. Bell of the Buffalos played a high standard of football making both touchdowns for the winners. The officials were very poor, especially the umpire. The linesmen did not know anything at all about their positions which kept the referee continually in hot water. The referee was fair but did not know very much of the fine points. The field was very poorly marked with no cross marks. The condition of the field and lack of knowledge on the part of the officials caused both teams to always feel that they were being robbed, and not until these conditions are remedied will independent football become popular. The Fafayette Football team, averaging 140-145lbs. wishes games from any team in or around the district. Call Tribune Office, North 6554-W. VIRGINIA NORMAL AND BIDDLE UNIVERSITY BATTLE TO A NO-SCORE TIE Petersburg, Va., October 16—In a game which was full of interest from whistle to whistle, Virginia Normal and Biddle University found themselves deadlocked in a gruelling contest in which neither team was able to score. The final score, however, does not tell the story of the game. The Normal boys outplayed the Biddle boys in every department of the game. Biddle was on the defensive throughout the entire game. Practically the whole game was played in Biddle's territory and several times the Virginians were in striking distance of the opponent's goal. At these critical times the Biddle defensive stiffened and fought with courage born of desperation. This, coupled with two costly fumbles, spoiled the chances of the Normal boys to put the ball across the line. Biddle was better on the defense than on the offense. Petersburg made ten first downs while Biddle made only one. The work of Brown and Gordon for Biddle was very good. The former gained most of the ground that was gained by the visitors. For Petersburg, the work of D. Brown, Captain Spratley, and Ross deserves special mention. The work of the coaches during the past week had its effect. The team that faced Biddle on Saturday was fifty per cent better in style of play than the team which faced St. Augustine a week ago. They are working hard now for the Howard game which will be played in Washington on Saturday October 22nd. In discussing the coming game Coach Watson said "We are making no predictions as to the outcome of the game, but barring injuries during this week's practice, the Howard boys will realize that they have been in a real football game before the final whistle blows." from Line-up: Virginia Normal Biddle Uni.

McDonald Union opened its football season last Saturday beating St. Paul Nor- mal Industrial Institute of Lawrence- ville 51 to 7. ‘A. C. Jackson kicked off for Union and made a touchdown the first five minutes of the game. The Red and Steel boys thinking the St. Paul’s team to be easy slacked up and al- Jowed St. Paul to make her first touch-down on Union in ten years. ‘The feature of the game was the star playing of Gregory, who ran thirty and fifty yards at will. Capt. Jackson, who fumbled the ball on the twenty yard line causing St. Paul to score, redeemed himself by making a touchdown from a kick off. Quarterback Jackson several times punted the ball the length of the field, thereby reminding the spec- tators of Hucles’ time. Another bright spot of the game was the spectacular playing of Hammond in right tackle. Union’s team will leave for Lynch- Wiring Installations Repairing FOR ANYTHING ELECTRICAL See William S.

Swanson, last year’s guard, and George Banks, candidate for quarterback, have reported for practice and expect to be able to play in a few days. Coach Taylor has been giving the men “Skull Practice” in order to fa- miliarize them with various plays and to build up team spirit.

Director Columbia Conservatory of Music INTELLECTUAL MUSICIANSHIP It has been truthfully said that a man in any profession should know something about everything and everything about that particular something that is directly connected with his profession, We find many who scoff at the sub- jects chosen in the curriculum of the common schools. Our prospective carpenter may wonder why he should conjugate verbs or learn Misalliance; our motormanistically inclined popu- lace may see little value in the study of evolution or the polygenetic char- acteristics of the polygalaceae. But where is the ambitious actor or the ambitious author who scorns his grammar, his Shakespeare, his Shaw, or his history of English literature? Where is the biologist who scorns his Darwin, his Huxley, his DeVries, or his family of milkwort plants? Of all the educational pursuits, music alone stands out as the one most ignorantly followed. Digital dexterity and a sensuous receptivity are generally conceded to be the sole. requisites of the successful ‘musician.’ “Whoever heard of the key of eleven sharps?” says Mr. Average Musician. “Pooh! I've been playing all grades of music through my life and I've never seen more than seven sharps!” Asked if he knows the key of one sharp major, he assures you that he does. But he doesn't. He hasn't the “vaguest idea what one sharp major means if he cannot tell you the key of eleven sharps. He knows exactly as much about it as a pet parrot who has been taught to say, “G major has one sharp, and f is the tone we sharp.” Mr. Average Musician’s di- THE STAGE AND iit SN Star Provides His Own Tracks and Conveyance Rather Than Charter Services of Transportation Co. They're even building railroads right inside the studio lot these days. Witness Charles Ray’s production of “Nineteen and Phyllis,” his third First National release, which will be the screen attraction at the Dunbar Theatre next week, Wednesday and ‘Thursday. So many of the scenes in the photoplay require the popular stat to appear on an antiquated smal town trolley car that he decided it would be more satisfactory to have his own tracks and car rather than borrow the use of a regular trans- portation company’s line. In “Nineteen and Phyllis” the Vix- ville “Rapid Transit” car, which is capable of making at least four mile: an hour, plays a very important par in the unfolding of a yery romantic incident and also figures in some of the most amusing scenes of this story by Frederick Stowers. Another interesting feature of “Nineteen and Phyllis” is the fac that Mr. Ray is departing from hi usual country boy role, and will be seen asa “real swell” small towr Beau Brummel. The arrival of a breezy city yout! causes him much sorrow, for his greatest efforts are surpassed by the big town dandy; but by enlisting the aid of several tried and true con. federates in the persons of some rag- ged urchins, he outwits the rival an¢ wins for himself the heart and hand of the belle of the town. CATTLE STAMPEDE AS REAL IN MAKING AS ON THE SCREEN John Bowers Beat Off Three Thousand Rushing Steers Before Going Down Beneath. What is the biggest thrill engen- dered by an action rush on the sereen? Was it the surging hordes of revolutionaries in “Passion,” the rescue-race of native canoes in “The Idol Dancer,” or the thunder-gallop of the supply train in vain attempt to save General Custer in “Bob Hamp- ton of Placer”? Or is it the mad stampede of 4000 steers, charging head-down on a defenceless girl and a battling man in “The Sky Pilot”? Each has its own adherents, but there is one man at least who would wel- come all the other. thrills ss some- thing easy compared to the spinal shivers he experienced while facing THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1921 gits are capable of doing certain stunts which are mysterious to our feathered friend; these stunts call upon some mental but no intellectual co-ordination; his phrasing calls upon his receptivity, but not one whit upon his intellect. And this is why the average musician is so often out of ‘place in intellectual society, so often ‘at a disadvantage even among men ‘of mediocre intelligence. For the con- ‘venience of many of these we hope that some noted naturalist will event- ually succeed in breeding a dice- shaped pea, ‘The surgeon or doctor does not require, in the strict pursuit of his profession, a knowledge of history, art or literature; neither need he know whether Columbus or Harvey discovered the circulation of blood. That this circulation was ever discov- ered is of no importance to the am- putation of a diseased limb or the ad- ministration of the proper pill—the mere fact that the blood circulates is sufficient. But imagine the medical profession composed in bulk of men devoid of all education other than the bare necessities of its specific pur- suit. Such a profession would occupy an entirely different social position from that in which it is found to-day; and little advance would have been made in medical discoveries. With this type in the medical profession, we would see here strikes for shorter hours and more pay; to-day doctors would be agitating a short-hour day, closed shop, and a sane stipend per day. Remember the red striped pole—our original doctors were bar- Bers. * (To be continued next week) that cattle stampede in the Cathrine Curtis Production of Ralph Connor’s famous story of the Canadian ranches. This is John Bowers, popu- lar movie star, who is particularly and peculiarly fitted to know whereof he speaks, in view of the fact that in the role of the “sky pilot” it is he who was chosen by Director King ‘Vidor to stand over the body of an injured little ranch girl and face the onrush of terror-stricken cattle. Fists clinched, teeth gritted, Bow- ers stood his ground in that event- ful moment when a thousand head of cattle stampeded towards him. Four times his clothes were ripped by steer horns before he even paid heed to his bruises. The fifth in- stance took the matter out of his hands, however. A wild steer bowled him over, with a resultant wound that required six stitches. But the real thrill had not yet arrived, When Bowers was knocked down, King Vidor, who had “plant- ed” his cameras in a trough eight feet deep, dug in just back of the point of focus, climbed out of the pit and took upon himself the work of frightening the animals to either side of Colleen Moore, who, face to the ground, had not realized that Bowers was no long- er over her and defending her from the mad onrush. It is estimated that by the time Bowers was felled, almost 3000 head of cattle had passed by him. It was, therefore, only up to the director to |fend the other thousand over the dan- |ger zone. But that was some job in itself. As the herd rushed onward speed increased andthe animals came |thundering on toward the figure of |the waving director and the motion- less figure of the girl, backed up by ||a battery of cameras, only the tops of which were sticking above ground. ' It was really less than two minutes, but it seemed hours to King Vidor who stood doggedly to the task of waving the animals aside, ‘Thus it happens that the scenes of the cattle stampede in “The Sky Pi- | lot” are said to rival any ‘thrill scenes’ ever shown on the screen. There are no faking, no doubling, no tricks | Bowers stood to his task until he was knocked to the ground; and the several hundred feet of this cattle stampede, practically all of which is close-up photography, will make a | striking impression when seen on the screen, : “I didn’t realize at the time how thrilinlg the scene was” said Bowers after he had witnessed the first | screening of “The Sky Pilot.” “But after I saw it on the sereen, ther the whole thing came back to me. 1 almost believe I know every animal in the picture by sight—and I know darn well I can pick out the five that got too well acquainted with me.” The dramatic stampede scenes in “The Sky Pilot” form a climax for s gripping story of the Canadian plains, adapted from Ralph Connor's book. The picture is released by the Associated First National Pictures, Ine., and will be shown for two days, at the Dunbar Theatre, Mon- day and Tuesday, - Stage Whispers . , (By Quentin) , What becomes of the numerous out- ‘put of the many film companies of the ‘race claiming to be making pictures?

Dixon) which occurred ‘sixteen years ago. It was one of the [most affecting scenes ever witnessed ‘in the history of the American fight followers. ‘The fight took place in Philadel- phia at the National Athletic Club, ‘Harlem’ ‘Tommy Murphy knocked out Dixon in the second round of their schedule six round fight. It was around the latter part of Sep- tember in 1905 and will be remem- bored as one of the most notable ring events of the century, because it brought together a former title holder and an opponent who later figured in many sensational battles. Dixon had just returned from Eng- land and lastly because of its wide- spread interest among fight followers. ‘Among the familiar faces about the ringside were “Parson” Davies, Jim Beckley, Jere Dunn, Terry MeGovern, and Joe Humphreys. ‘The crowd was the largest that ever assembled to see a fight in Philadelphia. Dixon was received with thunderous applause as he and his handlers came down the aisle. George climbed thru the ropes, flashed his old familiar smile, volley after volley of applause reached his ears and Murphy who fol- lowed closely after. When the two fighters shook hands it was seen that Tommy was much larger than the former champion. In- structions are given the gong sounds and the battle begins. Murphy starts with a rush landing a straight left, but Dixon does not budge. George sends a wicked left hook to Murphy’s stomach and dances nimbly away repeating with another then they mix it up at close quarters. Dixon has all of his old stuff but his punches lack steam. Tommy has more power in his blows and seems as if he would crush George’s ribs so loudly do they sound as they land. Little Chocolate is game never breaking ground. After they break away Murphy follows Dixon around landing rights and lefts to Dixon’s face here it is seen that George is begin- ning to weaken, leaning on Tommy with blood trickling down his face. ‘Tommy lands a right and several lefts to the body, Dixon knees sags and his back bends but he’s able to keep his feet under him, now and then tapping ‘Tommy harmlessly. It could be plainly seen that the end is near and that “Little Choco- late’s” sun is set on the pugilistic horizon, The silence of the spectators with their sad looks as Murphy is rushing and rocking Dixon’s head with rights and lefts alternating with body blows which George feebly attempts to block. ‘The bell rings while strong men wipe their perspiring brows and the corner of their eyes. The minute’s rest has done Dixon very little good. Tommy starts rush- ing again like one possessed sending ‘rushing rights to the body. Dixon bank bends and is seen to shrink. His strength is slipping as he tries to mix it with Murphy. Now comes the end a terrible right to the pit of the stomach, Dixon’s back grazes the rope as he slips to the floor. ‘Not a sound was to be heard, no one eft a seat and it seemed like an age before any one broke the spell as the greatest and most popuar fighter that ever lived was counted out.

The page will not only be interesting to children, but to parents as well. The Editors believe that with this innovation, The Tribune will be the best balanced weekly paper published anywhere. It is the purpose of the Editors to continue to set the pace by giving the people the best news all the time, believing that this policy will eventually triumph. CHILDREN SHOULD ASPIRE The general press is apt to tell of our large number of lawbreakers and to lay great stress on our inability to accomplish the big things in life. 'Tis true we have a number of convicts, so have all other races. They have evil among them even in the proportions we have. They have kings and presidents and so have we. They have poets, authors, musicians, sculptors, artists and so have we. It is for you, children, to learn of what the race has done in the nature of big things and so prepare yourselves to be champions in the defense of your people. Do not stop at learning what other men have done just forge ahead and allow yourself to equal or surpass those accomplishments which men fought for and won having less advantages than you now possess. Next week we shall run a Question Box. Anything concerning or of interest to the race will be gladly and swered in this department.

WILLIAM TILLMAN—HERO In June, 1861, the Federal Schooner, "S. J. Waring," was captured by the Confederates. Three of her crew were retained, one being William Tillman, a Negro. He was told he would be sold on reaching Charleston. Alone he captured the captain, alone he captured the mate, secured his revolver and drove the other four of the prize crew below deck. He then armed two other colored men after unchaining them, put the enemy in irons and headed for New York. Encountering a storm he forced the rebels by threats of instant death to help man the schooner, arriving in New York five days later. He was awarded $6000 prize money. READ NEGRO LITERATURE There are lots of things of which the Negro child should know and be proud of. There are facts that seem astounding when you stop to think what the race has done in such a short time, and under such adverse conditions. To learn these things one must read—and as we read we must pass them along. It is almost a certainty that if a census was taken in our homes asking us who were the six greatest Negroes of all times all of the answers would be limited to five names only; Washington, Douglass, Dunbar, Attucks and L'Ouverture. There are half a hundred names of Negroes who have done very, very remarkable things. The child today should not nor can he afford to know no more of his or her race than does the average parent. The Japanese, the French, the German, the English, the Dutch, the Italian, the heathen of the jungles all know the stories of their great. The civilized man passes his knowledge on through books, the heathen by folklore, by telling it by word of mouth on from one generation to another.

We must learn of ourselves even as we must learn of the help to the race's future which we must give to ourselves. While we are pointing out the defects of what and how other races act in relation to us we must realize that there are a great many things which we do that hold us back in the procession of progress to a far greater extent than that which we claim as the work of our enemies. But back to our subject: There are many writers, black and white, who have presented to the world books with fair information of much that goes to prove the Negro's ability to cope with and do the things which other peoples do. Some good books to read are: "Frederick Douglass" by Booker T. Washington. "The Life and Works of Paul L. Dunbar" by Lida Keck Wiggins. "The Story of my Life and Works" by B. T. Washington. "The Negro in American History" by John W. Cromwell. "Africa and America" by Alex. Crummell. "A School History of the Negro Race in America" by Edward A. Johnson. "A Narrative of the Negro" by Mrs. Lulu Amos Pendleton. A copy of the "Negro Year Book" should be in the possession of every Negro home in America.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE PUBLISHED WEEKLY by the WASHINGTON TRIBUNE PUBLISHING CO., Inc 920 U Street, N. W. WASHINGTON, D. C. Phone North 6554-W "WHITE SUPREMACY" PLUS AMERICAN "White supremacy" characterizes the aims, purposes and highest ambition of the Anglo-Saxon thruout the world. So arrogant is the American in his assertion of "white supremacy," and his pretensions of American supremacy, to boot, that he carries his offensiveness with him to foreign countries, which results in engendering hatred in foreigners, regardless of the country, for America and Americans. This resentment is brought out in the attempted bombing of American ambassadors and consuls in Europe of which the cables brought us the news Thursday. Travellers returning from Europe speak of the expressed hatred for the white American because of his arrogance and inconsideration of others. His prejudiced selfishness is so pronounced that foreigners readily recognize it and promptly resent it. Europe owes America more than $10,000,000,000 and therefore, tolerates Americans as travelers thru the various countries, but there is little of the real friendship which characterizes good will between men and nations. "Pride goeth before a fall" and prejudice has always been rewarded with humiliation. "White supremacy" means utter destruction. Go on "White Supremacy," but great will be your fall.

It has been the aim and desire of THE TRIBUNE to give to the people of Washington the best paper possible. In doing this we have made history and THE TRIBUNE is the outstanding paper of the country within our group. For our "Children's Page" we have secured the services of Mr. C. Leslie Frazier, whose work for the "Brownies Book" made of him a national favorite among children. THE TRIBUNE is the best balanced paper in the country today. It has led the pace since its first issue and has had a phenomenal growth. It has been a success from the first issue. THE TRIBUNE is first with authentic, interesting, selected articles. The acid test of THE TRIBUNE is applied each week when more than 5,000 papers are bought and paid for by our loyal readers. Baseball and Football Continued from page 5 LINCOLN TO PRESENT STRONG TEAM By Quentin At the Lincoln Freshmen's Banquet recently stirring speeches were made by President Randall, Coach Shelbourne, and Student Manager, Arthur Williams, showing the confidence they have in those whom they will train to represent the University football team. An opponent once said he always feared Lincoln when he heard the student body singing "Alma Mater" or "That good old Lincoln Spirit." From the enthusiasm shown by those present they all seem very optimistic about the team this season. On the next day Coach Shelbourne put the men through a hard practice, dividing the men into two teams, "A" and "B." "A" was composed of new men while "B" was mostly of last year's men. The new men are showing up well and may rout some of the old players. Coach Shelbourne is getting all out of the men possible; appealing to their intellect to learn instead of to brute force. The first test for the team was against the Ward Athletic Club of Annapolis, Md. Owing to a muddy field the team was unable to play a snappy game. In less than five minutes after the kick off by Lincoln to Annapolis, the ball was recovered and carried over for a touchdown. Here all scoring stopped on account of the strong defense put up by each team and the condition of playing field. Captain Laws opened up an old injury and will probably play a very little more this season. Several men who were delayed in reutring to school are now out for practice and hope to get into the future games with Morgan College on the 22nd, Wilberforce on the 29th, and Hampton on the 5th of November. SPORTS AT THE "Y" Friday, October 28th will be a great day at the 12th Street "Y." Arrangements have been completed for a one-day bowling tournament. Six teams have entered this tournament, and bowling will start at 5:45 P. M. sharp. Just as we go to press, arrangements are being made for a volleyball game between the fast, 12th Street "Y" team and the Baltimore "Y." The Baltimore team has a great reputation and many victories to its credit; but this has just suprived the 答 of our thousands of readers to seven, "The Children's Page." of THE TRIBUNE to give to the paper possible.

It is hoped this game can be arranged for Friday October 28th. Definite announcement howvere of same will be made in a very few days. Baltimore is also boasting of an exceptionally strong billiard team. The local "Y" however is no less boastful of its artists of the "Table of the green." They are making arrangements for a match with Baltimore to take place Friday, October 28th. Watch for definite announcement of the same. CYCLE CLUB ISSUES DEFI The South Western Cycle Club issues a defi to all cycle clubs who think they can ride. They challenge any and all teams in the District. For dates, write Ralph Jones, the president, 332 H Street, S.W. Stage and Screen (Continued from page 4) known to amusement promoters. Shows that come highly recommended and are satisfactory to one group of patrons are disgustful presentations of suggestiveness and vulgarity to another element. Last week, during the engagement of the "Up and Down" show, a patron found it necessary to censor the production, and instead of making known to the manager—the proper one to whom such complaints should be made—just what the real objectionable features were, the matter was taken up with precinct captain of police, who immediately detailed officers to the scene of "vicious crime." But the "Knights of the Big Club Swingers" were unable to observe anything that was out of the ordinary. Had the show embraced any of the objectionable features as this particular patron harped upon, there would have been many more available seats placed at the disposal of many who were unable to gain admission during the past week. Every performance was attended by a capacity audience. The consensus of opinion was that "Up and Down" was a good clean show. FORD DABNEY'S BAND GIVES RARE TREAT By Jay Bee It is indeed regrettable that such a few people of Washington turned out last Wednesday night to hear Ford Dabney's famous orchestra, which gave a delightful concert at Convention Hall. Not since the rendition of "Hiawa- THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1921 tha" by the S. Coleridge-Taylor Choral Society several years ago, has a more notable musical event taken place in the National Capital than the concert given by Mr. Ford Dabney's Syncopated Orchestra, which came to us direct from Ziegfield's Winter Garden, New York City. Syncopation with all its many variations was played and interpreted by thirty-five skilled musicians to the delight of several hundred music lovers.

Our own Wooding Jubilee Quintette; Mr. Brassfield, saxophonist, par excellence; Mr. Arthur Payne, basso; Little Mose Ross, entertainer; the "Right Quartette" and the Musical "Piano Wizards" were the features of the evening. The audience was exceedingly enthusiastic and relentlessly applauded every number, to which the gracious gentlemen responded with snappy encores. In an interview, Mr. Dabney expressed great pleasure at being able to make an appearance at this time; and he said that the people of Washington had been very kind to him during his very short stay. The band left for Philadelphia, where they will play at the Academy of Music. The pianos used were loaned thru the courtesy of the Arthur Jordan Company. Electrical effects by Fred Pelham and Malcolm Thomas. Among those present were many of our prominent local musicians, among them, being: Prof. Miller, director of the Community Centers Band; Prof. Joseph Douglas, Mr. Carroll Boyd, Prof. Henry Grant, G. Summer Wormley, Mrs. Gertie Wells-Snowden and many others. STANDARD INVESTMENT CO. GIVES BANQUET (Continued from page 1) fine hotels, apartment houses, theatres from which we are excluded. While we have less than a paltry million invested in our own enterprises. Isn't it time to awake this sleeping giant? "When we go to borrow our own money, we are informed that money is tight now. Do we think more of the white man's children than of our own? Shall we look out for their welfare instead of our own? That is just what we are doing every time we deposit our money in the white man's bank or trade at a white store when we could purchase the same article at a colored man's store." He had the financial statement read in which was shown that the corporation had received from all sources $66,381.98 and disbursed $65,563.75 leaving a balance of $818.23 on hand. Mr. John W. Lewis, president of the Industrial Savings Bank, told of how our people are preparing to die, more than to live. "We are placed in an awful position," said Mr. Lewis. "If the white storekeeper should close tomorrow, we would be in an awful position. As long as we are depending on the other fellow to clothe us, to feed us, to house us and to keep us warm, we will forever remain a dependent people. One hundred thousand people spending only fifty cents a day for food makes $50,000 a day we are spending with the other fellow." The out of town visitors present were Mr. and Mrs. W. N. Jackson of Alexandria, Va., and Mr. C. S. Golden, cashier of the Phoenix Bank, of Suffolk, Va. A salad course, coffee, ice cream and cake was served.
