EXCURSION BOAT E. MADISON HALL RELEASED All the News That's Fit to Print EXCURS OTTOWAY HOLMES PUTS UP BOND OF $70,000 TO FREE STEAMER Boat Raided While Lying At the Eighth Street Dock LITTLE EVIDENCE FOUND All Regular Excursions to Run as Usual This Week The river steamer, E. Madison Hall, owned by Mr. Otoway Holmes, a prominent business man here, was released by the Federal authorities, Wednesday afternoon, after Mr. Holmes put up $70,000 bond. All boat rides scheduled to go down the river on the E. Madison Hall for Thursday night, Friday night and Saturday were run as usual. The 400 ton steamer which is said to be worth $100,000, was seized Tuesday evening while the boat was laying at its dock at the foot of 8th St., S.W. loading passengers for its trip down the river. The boat was seized following a raid by local revenue and police officers, who claimed that they found about five gallons of whiskey on board the boat. The boat was searched from stern to bow and but little evidence was obtained to substantiate the officers' charge. A revenue officer is alleged to have purchased some whiskey on the boat last week, but whether he purchased it from an employee of the boat or a passenger could not be learned; but it was gravely doubted by Mr. Holmes that the officer purchased it from any employee as he has' a strict rule against any employee bringing whiskey aboard. The case against Mr. Holmes was set for Saturday morning before Commissioner Hitt at 11 o'clock. The steamer E. Madison Hall is a palatial boat that plies between Washington and River View, Md. The boat is the only one of its size owned by a colored man in this section and has been booked by many prominent clubs and societies for special trips down the Potomoc this season. Mr. Holmes for a number of years has been prominently connected with the business interests of Washington. He has been very successful in his business enterprises here. He resides at 811 22nd St., N.W. His boat is manned entirely by colored men and is the only boat of any kind operated on the Potomac river for colored people. The boat is fast becoming popular among moonlight excursionists. The Chesterfield Club recently gave a very successful ride on this boat and the popular Informals Club will give one this Saturday night, July 8th, at 7 p.m. The boat is equipped in every way complete.

UNION WESLEY ZION CHURCH BUYS MISSION UNION WESLEY ZION CHURCH BUYS MISSION Dr. E. D. W. Jones Is Sponsor of Movement to Buy Building HOWARD STUDENT IS PASTOR Spirit of Missions to be Developed Among Young People The Zion Denomination has had a Mission in Georgetown for years but it has faithfully continued under the disadvantages of renting its place of worship. At the Annual conference in May, Rev W. R. Jones, a Howard Theological student was ordained and sent as pastor to this Mission. He found that the building formerly used could no longer be retained by his growing and promising congregation. He consulted his pastor, Dr. E. D. W. Jones about this very discouraging plight. Dr. Jones immediately decided that the best step to take was to have his church buy and foster the work. Bishop L. W. Kyles secretary of the Organic Commissioners, which recently held meetings in the city, went over the situation and he suggested that the mission be bought immediately. Bishop J. S. Caldwell who presides over this conference spoke the final word. Dr. Jones announced to his congregation the decision to secure a permanent church home for the Mission and with their approval the Trustees, Brothers Brown, Davis and Branch and the pastor made the purchase. Dr. E. D. W. Jones in speaking of the transaction, said; "God has wonderfully blessed Union Wesley in increase of membership, systematic giving and large over-flow attendance. We have recently bought two properties for the enlargement of our own church edifice and now we must help others who are struggling under difficulties to build up the Redeemer's Kingdom." With a Sunday School of 657 members and a Christian Endeavor Society of 315 members, the church plans to foster the interest of the Mission through its young people. WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1922 Prominent Woman Commits Suicide ANDREW THOMAS SUCCEEDS RUFUS G. BYARS AT LINCOLN Long Record at Dunbar Justifies Her New Promotion BRUCE FINALLY RESIGNS Two Teachers Receive Retirement After Years of Service The principalship of the Shaw Junior High School was given to Miss Mineola Kirkland, assistant principal at the Dunbar High School by the Board of Education, at its meeting Wednesday. This place was made vacant by the resignation of Miss Lucy D. Slowe, who goes to Howard University as the Dean of Women. Miss Kirkland has been in the system for a number of years and Supt. Ballou said the promotion was given to her in recognition of valued service rendered and that Miss Kirkland was well qualified for the position by culture, refinement and ability. The resignation of Miss Slowe was received with appropriate remarks from the assistant superintendent, Garnet C. Wilkinson. The resignation of Roscoe C. Bruce was accepted at this same meeting. Mr. Bruce has been in the school system, as assistant superintendent for the past fifteen years. The first of last July he asked for an indefinite leave of absence, without pay, which was granted him. His resignation was mailed from a city in West Virginia and was accepted. An appropriate letter of appreciation for his years of service is to be sent him by the secretary of the Board. Retirements The application for retirement of Miss H. E. Riggs, who has spent the past fifty years in the schools of Washington and Miss C. E. Parks who has spent forty-three years in the school system, brought forth favorable comment from both Supt. Ballou and assistant superintendent Wilkinson. Miss Riggs was a member of the board of examiners and Supt. Ballou said that he realized her worth, and that he was aware of the fact that her place would not easily be filled. Electives Mr. Edwin N. C. Barnes, of Pawtucket, R. I., was elected Director of Music for the District Schools. Reorganization of the board took place at this meeting and Dr. Abram Simons was elected president and Mr. D. J. Callahan, vice-president. At the opening of the meeting, Secretary Hines, administered the oath of office to Mrs. Raymond B. Morgan, the new member of the Board and to Mrs. Hodgins, Dr. J. Hayden Johnson's third term. Mrs. Coralie F. Cook was not present but was represented by Mr. Houston, who expressed Mrs. Cook's desire for the election of Miss Zeta Dyson, for the principal of Shaw Junior High. (Continued on page 8) Issues Formal Statement to Public Setting Forth His Policy THEATER TO BE CLOSED Board of Directors Disclosed For First Time Since Opening From information authoratively given out, Mr. Rufus G. Byars, who was at one time manager at the Howard, and who last August left the Dunbar, Hiawatha, and Foraker Theatres management, and who since that time was connected with the Attucks Theatre in Norfolk for several months and later opened the Broadway Theater on 7th Street in this city, which was recently sold as a result of its failure, and who has recently been connected, with the Lincoln Theatre in the capacity of "lessee, general manager, and director general," has been replaced at the last named theater by Mr. Andrew J. Thomas, formerly proprietor of the Howard Theater. Mr. Thomas and the board have given out the statements printed below. Mr. Thomas' Statement: To my many friends and theater goers; it is with much pleasure and appreciation that I embrace this opportunity, to inform you that beginning Monday July the 17th 1922, "The Lincoln Theatre" will reopen its doors under the management of your humble servant. My effort has always been to please you and cater to your wants in the presentation of such performances obtainable that would excite the admiration of those who have favored me with their support throughout my theatrical experience. I am indebted to you for the successful theatrical career I have enjoyed, because without your support and encouragement I would have failed, never to rise again. I feel grateful to you, and I believe that neither mud-slinging nor wild gossiping have shaken your faith and confidence in me. If I have failed to come up to your expectation, it might have been for the lack of proper judgment. None of us are perfect, and if I have erred in judgment, it was because it has been my anxiety to please. Under the management of this magnificent temple of amusement I will take you in my confidence and my efforts will be to retain that confidence by catering to your likes and dislikes. My policy will be as you have known it—I have never discriminated against any applicant for aid and neither have I turned from the door any worthy cause, as thousands no doubt will testify. I could do no more. I mean to please you at all times and I look forward to the opening date when we will again gather as one family. I miss being with you and I trust that the old family spirit will be again renewed. I want to keep your confidence and continue to ask for your support and encouragement. I want to make my opening week a memorable one, and it can be if my friends of teh past and present will give me the honor of their presence. Believing this letter will reach thousands of my friends who may not be able to be present on the evening of July the 17th, 1922, on which occasion I want to publicly extend my thanks, I subscribe myself with everlasting gratitude. ANDREW J. THOMAS (Continued on page 8) Tribune HALL R n Commit SECOND ATTEMPT BOOTH TO END TRIBUNE FEATURES YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO MISS Another feature has been added to The Tribune's ever increasing list. The latest feature, "By The Way" will surely interest all who are keeping abreast with the trend of current events as they affect the race. To those who keep scrap books, "By The Way" will especially appeal. Clip them every week and you will have a series of constructive articles that will be hard to duplicate anywhere. This bit of spicy comment is by Amzi Hamilton. The Tribune also presents again "One Day Last Week" from the pen of "Jay Bee." "Jay" as he is popularly termed, is one of the best eccentric writers in the profession and his column will be gladly welcomed back. The greatest of all features and perhaps the greatest achievement in the history of journalism during the past year, is "The Children's Page" by C. Leslie Frazier. Be sure to read these features before you lay your paper aside. LAND SWINDLE SCHEME EXPOSED BY EMPLOYEE LAND SWINDLE SCHEME EXPOSED BY EMPLOYEE Many District Citizens are Victims of Crooked Promoters OFFICE IN BALTIMORE Alleged Free Lots Always Cost Holder About $69 For Deed Perhaps the most barefaced scheme ever connected by white men to separate thrifty colored people from their savings was exposed in this city this week by the publication of a letter signed by Mrs. Nannie Butler, of Baltimore, a former employee of the corporation. It appears that the corporation through the representations of one of their own number, would interest colored men and women in certain alleged "valuable lots" some of which, for advertising purposes, were to be given away 'absolutely free of charge.' The others were to be sold for $300 each., but somehow or other the 'free' lots never seemed to run out. Meanwhile, when a "winner" went to get his "free" lot he invariably found out that it was not to be free after all, but that $69.00 was to be paid for a "deed". After the client got his deed, he found out for the first time that he could build only a certain kind of a house on his "free" lot, and that kind of house could be had only of the Corporation at a cost of $3300.00. MRS. BUTLER'S letter is as follows: Baltimore, Md., June 27, 1922 To Whom It May Concern: At the instance of friends who urge it upon me as a duty to my race, I have decided to publish the following facts showing my connection with the (Continued on page 8) Circulation Books Open To All ELEASED ts Suicide OF MRS. FREEMAN- LIFE SUCCESSFUL Despondence Over Home Life Said to Have Been Cause HAD TWO CHILDREN Was From Very Prominent Washington Family Washington society was shocked Monday morning by the announcement of the death of Mrs. Jennie Freeman-Booth which resulted from taking five Bi-Chloride of Mercury tablets, Friday night. Following the taking of the poison, Mrs. Booth was removed to Freedmen's Hospital, where she died. About a month ago Mrs. Booth is alleged to have tried to asphyxiate herself but was found by a member of the family in time to save her. Since then she had been carefully watched. She eluded the watchers Friday night when she succeeded in swallowing the tablets. It is asserted that about a year ago, Mr. and Mrs. Booth, who lived at 1916 3rd Street Northwest, became estranged. Since then, it is claimed that Mr. Booth abandoned his wife and two sons for another woman here in the city. Mrs. Booth is alleged to have said that she was tired of the humiliating treatment rendered her by her husband, who refused to support her or the two boys. Mrs. Booth was formerly, Miss Jennie Freeman, one of the old and respected families of Washington. The Freeman family formerly lived on 16th Street, between L and M. Mrs. Booth was a sister of Dr. H. W. Freeman. DR. HARRIS ISSUES CALL FOR DRUGGISTS TO MEET HERE Dr. Edward F. Haris, chairman, Pharmaceutical Section of the National Medical Association, has issued a call for all druggists of the race to meet in session of the proposed National Druggists' Association on August 21, in the Washington College of Pharmacy in this city. The call states that at the Louisville sessions of the N. M. A. last year, the proposition of making a drive for more pharmacists as members of the N. M. A. and it was decided to call the druggists to this city on the eve of the opening of the Convention at which time an organization would be perfected and on the opening day of the National Medical Convention to present the entire organization as an affiliating body. From every angle it appears that the Nationl Druggists' Association is already a success and will be of the greatest strength to the mother organization. Chairman Harris has the able support of all the local druggists, especially those who backed him up when the Colored Druggists' Association was organized by him about five years ago. It is quite unfortunate that all the colored druggists throughout the country can not be definitely located and for that reason we shall donate this space as our approval of the organization trusting to reach druggists who might not receive it from the chairman's office.

BROOKS TESTIMONIAL GREAT AFFAIR One of the most enjoyable affairs of the season was given recently when about one hundred former high school cadets and National Guardsmen assembled in the Whitelaw Hotel where a testimonial-banquet-smoker was given in honor of Lt. Col. Arthur Brooks. Following the opening remarks by Lt. Benj. Washington, who acted as Master of Ceremonies, Capt. Albert Ridgeley, M. D., spoke on "The High School Cadet." He said that he could speak in the highest terms of Col. Brooks, after 22 years of unbroken love for him. Maj. M. T. Dean, Instructor in Military Tactics for the city schools and Howard University, said: "It is true that too much cannot be said of the value of the service which Col. Arthur Brooks has rendered the young men of our country. Everything that has come to me as a military man, I owe to Lt. Col. Arthur Brooks." COL. BROOKS Attorney John H. Wilson was an interesting and humorous speaker"The value of Cadet Training to the Civilian" was his assignment. He said that it would make for sterling character, broad vision, and inspire consecrated service for our fellow man. In speaking of Col. Brooks, he said that we must think of him along with Douglas, Washington and Dunbar. He closed with this fitting verse: "The helmet may rust The laurel may fade, Oblivion's grasp may blunt the victor's blade, But that bright holy wreath which training gives, Unharmed by hate, unborn by envy, lives." Interesting reminiscences were given by Thos. Edward Jones; Dr. R. Bruce Wilson, who told of an interesting affair at Leesburg, Va., while at summer camp there, in 1903. There was a sign on a tree there which read: "Death warrant to any one who cuts this tree down." It was learned that a colored man by the name of Freeman had been hung on it and the white pepole were keeping it as a monument to their first lynching in that vicinity. They cut it down. Some of them were arrested for it and fined $30 which was paid by the commanding officer of the camp. Others telling of other incidents were Capt. C. C. H. Davis, and Capt. Frederick Webster. Capt. C. H. Davis telling what the "National Guard has meant to the Race," said: "With the separate Battalion here in Washington, there were in the United States, prior to 1917, 80 officers and 3,110 men in the various colored National Guard organizations, mostly in the North. Now we here only have one company where we had a battalion before the war. . . We need uncompromising leadership, and the Negro that wants to compromise we should kill." Dr. W. S. Montgomery said: "We are here tonight to pay respect to one who richly deserves it. Col. Brooks has been the L'Overture of our race in the military training of our boys here in America." Attorney Chas. S. Hill said that he only hoped the time would soon come when every boy in the High Schools would be compelled to take the military training. Others speaking on interesting incidents were Capt. George Sidnor, Lt. Walker L. Savoy, Capt. John W. White, who said: "There are no more Col. Brooks in our race of NEVER OUT City Proper runs from Park Rd., north to B St., south and 36th St. West to R St.; 8th St. N. E to Penna. Ave., S. E. which I know. He has made men out of the boys who came under him, who are now capable of taking care of themselves as men." Lt. Jas. B. Lomax sang the "Victor" as a solo, followed by Capt. A. C. Newman, principal of Armstrong Manual Training School. "Those of us who have been associated with Lt. Col. Brooks, as teachers and principals, realize the loss of Col. Brooks' service in the cadet force." Maj. F. Webster said: "There were no colored officers and few whites that noqualed Col. Brooks as a military tactician." Letters were read from Thos. A Heathman, Lt. Col. B. O. Davis, U. S. A., and Roscoe C. Bruce. The presentation of the testimonial, which was a diamond studded watch fob, was made by the assistant superintendent, Garnet C. Wilkinson, who said in part: "Col. Brooks, more than any other teacher for the past 25 years, has entered into the lives of the youths of the District of Columbia, and there are a number of excellent teachers here. Col. Brooks is living today in a peculiar way in our lives. Think of the thousands of men that have come under his instructions in military tactics. The fact that he lives in our hearts after all, is the greatest monument that can be given Lt. Col. Brooks. In the name of the High School Cadets, the National Guard, and of all the men who have seen service under you, I present this watch fob as material evidence of their memory and you are assured of immortality thru the men you have served." Replying to the presentation speech, Lt. Col. Brooks said: "I have been decorated by two kings and the President of the United States, but nothing that has come to me, has touched me as deeply and made me as happy as this testimonial to-night. I thank you and hope that prosperity may attend your way." Those in charge of the entertainment were: G. C. Wilkinson, chairmen of the general committee; R. N. Mattingly, secretary and B. Boyd, treasurer; with Benj. A. Washington chairman of the committee on arrangements.

Charles Stokes of the Lafayette Jrs. had an unlucky day. He was hit four times in the first inning, but got revenge later by crashing a home run to the end of the field. "Bat Eye" Wallace the terrible Jr. twirler, toyed with the Arlington A's. clean through the game; pitching a shut out. Finley put up a star game at second and ended the day by duplicating Stokes' stunt of getting a home run. Joe Taylor and "Bull" Stilliard ought to be glad as they had a chance to field three of the four balls hit to the out-field by the A's. Taylor got in bad by missing his. "Snake" Wallace made bad friends with a bull by wearing a red sweater. He gathered in the last out of the game giving "Bat Eye," his cousin, credit for a shut out. Capt. Smith played a bang up game at third, getting an almost impossible one out of the dust, sending by wireless to Comet Jones to get his man at home. Manager “Doc” Dean was discussing how lucky “Whisk Broom” Ware was in dodging balls at the plate; at this moment a fast one almost put Ware into the land of dreams. “Buster” Thomas is such a fast (?) base runner that the A’s second baseman had the ball two minutes before he got to second everytime. “Marty” Martin had a lucky day by scoring five runs. He also had an unlucky day; the A’s pitcher drove one straight at “Marty’s” shoulder. It broke upwards almost breaking his jaw. "Doc" Dean, manager of the Lafayette Juniors, knows more about managing boys than any other man in Alexandria. He looks after the team like a father, never quarrelling with them and always telling them they can play ball whether they can or no. The Lafayette Juniors defeated the Arlington A's 15 to 0. This junior team so far, has played 13 games, winning 12 and losing 1. Stage Whispers Stage Whispers By Quentin The Bishop-Desmond Co. has disbanded for the summer. They will reorganize early in the fall and will probably go into southern territory during the coming season. All critics except Patterson James seem to like "Strut Miss Lizzie" show, playing a three weeks engagement at Times Square Theatre, New York.

Bradford opposed the motion on the grounds that he had never been served personally with papers in the action. Justice Marsh reserved decision.

(By Quentin) From time to time I have told about out champion feather, light and welter weights but now I am going to tell about the greatest heavyweight the world has known—Peter Jackson. Jackson was born on the island of Porto Rico in 1861, not in Australia as is generally supposed. His family moved to Australia when he was sixteen years old. In later years he became a sailor on a boat plying between islands of the South Seas. Growing tired of this he secured a job as watchman for several buildings at Sydney. It was there he got acquainted with Larry Foley, former champion of Australia who at this time was running a boking school. Taking a great deal of interest in Jackson he gave him some work in the gymnasium. Resigning as a watchman he readily took to athletics taking part in running events, rowing, and swimming contests. He was partial to boxing. It was in 1882 Jackson engaged in his first professional match, meeting Jack Hayes, for four rounds which ended in a draw. The result pleased Foley so much he made Jackson his assistant. Later Peter defeated Micky Dooley, Hayes and Sam Britton. Being a very hard puncher, Jackson usually knocked his man out. He put Britton in the land of nod in twenty minutes. His reputation was soon built up, in fact so rapidly that Jack Burke, "The Irish Boy," who was quite a scraper refused to meet Peter. Jackson met Bill Farnum at Melbourne, Australia in 1884 and was knocked out in three rounds on account of his carelessness. This was Peter's first defeat. They met again shortly afterwards resulting in a six round draw. Jackson won the heavyweight championship of Australia in 1886 by defeating Tom Lees. The contest lasted thirty rounds for a purse of a thousand dollars a side. Some contrast to the modern fighters who refuse to fight unless they receive a fortune guarantee. The year of 1887 Jackson was idle but in 1888 he left Australia for America landing in San Francisco where he engaged in his first contest on these shores.

The boys had a fine hike Saturday to the farm of Dr. Charles H. Marshall in Maryland. Dr. Marshall is chairman of the Committee of Management of the 12th St., Branch Y. M. C. A., and kindly consented to the host of the boys on this occasion. On the same day another group of boys was taken to the Mott Playground where they indulged in various games, swimming, etc. If enough boys can be secured to go the Association hopes to conduct a boys' camp during the latter part of August. All persons having boys desiring them to take part in such activities will kindly get in touch with the executive secretary, Mr. Wm. Stevenson, 1816 12th St., N.W. The recreation room of the Association is being improved daily. Another new cloth has been put on one of the tables and now the equipment is in good shape. Billiard and pocket billiard players are invited to come down, also those who like to bowl. During the past month the Association has succeeded in placing about ten men in jobs and providing food and shelter for others.

RED STAR SPECIAL By MARY MORISON, fro above John Henry's head, It told an indifferent world that John Henry of SIA Bleeeker street sold lawn mowers, Up and down the sun-baked street, torpid in the August heat, there was not a sign of life; it might have been a deserted village. “Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse,’” murmured John Henry to himself. Somehow it all reminded John Heury of the summer two years ago when he had been salesman for the Red Star Special Lawnmower com pany and had tried to sell a machine to a pretty girl in a small town up in Connecticut. Whenever John Henry thought of her standing there in the deerway of the little old farmhouse, with the sun in her hair and the blue sky in her eyes, he was conscious of a little jump in bis heart beats. He closed his eyes and the whole scene came back to him, He had spoken eloquently of the way a Red Star Special worked, “A lawn mower! I wouldn't buy a lawn mower if I had so much money that I had to hire a bank to take care of It, Look at that one under the tree there—works a few minutes a day and sleeps all the rest of the time. Does nothing but cut grass from one year’s end to another. I hate grass and trees and—oh! very much and—lawnmowers. If you were selling city pavements and crowded street cars or something that really lived, Mr. Agent, Td buy. But as it is, Til save my money for carfare to a place where there is no grass that needs to be cut.” ‘She had turned on ner heel and slammed the door in John Henry's face. He gave a sigh as he remembered the picture she had made in her pink gingham dress, her sun-tanned cheeks flushed with anger at lawn mowers and life in general, He was wouder- ing where she was now and if she had ever saved up enough money for carfare, when a soft exclamation from the doorway made him turn quickly around. “Ob, what beauties! What perfect beauties!” came in tones of hushed fervor. ‘There, but for the gingham dress and the angry discontent, stood the girl from Connecticut! Her French heeled slipper and blue georgette frock proclaimed her yery much of the city, citified—but John Henry knew her In an instant. “How much are they?” she went vn, while he continued inadequately co mop his brow. “I do not know how I can use one exactly in an apart- ment—but somehow I think I'd Just love to have one around. 1 suppose I could use it as a sort of hatrack ef- fect. Painted black, with a rosebud pattern on the handle, st might be quite effective.” She paused a moment In deep thoiight, and then suddenly inquired: “I don't suppose by any chance these are Red Star Specials?” ‘Then for the first time she looked straight at John Henry. Bleecker street outside was beginning to wake up, for from a block or so off came the softened jangle of a hurdygurdy and a boy's voice singing so that they could hear the words quite plainly: “A veranda with somo sort of clinging vine, ‘And a kitchen where the rambler roses limb.” “Oh!” said the girl. “It’s you, Mr. Agent, isn't it?" “Yes,” answered John Henty, rather breathlessly. “I had just been wonder- ing whether you ever saved up enough—carfare, and then I looked up and here you are.” “Better than a palace with a gilded dome Ina love-nest we can call home—" came the boy's voice outside, nearer this time. “When you saw me that day [ wouldn't even talk civilly to you about lawn mowers—though we really did need a new one—Just because they ‘stood for the grass and trees and coun- try. I thought I was ‘fed up.” “Today,” she continued, “when I saw your green sign, I would give any- thing I possess to be running one up and down, up and down—" “Here,” said John Henry, thrusting the handle of his cholcest grade A into her hand. “Try it. I often do.” Quite solemnly they walked back and forth over the dusty boards of John Henry's Bleecker street store, the wishing-carpet of thelr imaginations taking them far away to some grass- covered slope in the Connecticut hills. ‘Then, suddenly, catching each other's eye, they broke into a gale of laugh- ter such as Bleecker street had never heard before. “Just a love-nest, cozy and warm, Like a dove rest down on the farm—" came from just outside the door as the boy passed by. SB itiey atid dein? Gide what GIFT_OF THE SEA clay ooaeteee MACKIE. ist (@, 1921, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) “Im sorry, Ben, Mother and I are ashamed of the way Daisy has behaved —expecting to marry you In the winter and now running away with that traveling salesman from Boston—yes, the iminister at Tulose married them that afternoon, and now as long’s they're married and he ts her husband, why we've got to make the best of it, But we'd a hull sight rather Daisy had married you—what can I say to com- fort you, Ben?” “Don't worry about me, Mr. Brew- er,” he said, extending a big brown hand. “It’s a hard blow—If Daisy had only told me she didn't love me I would have freed her at once, but doa't you and Mrs, Brewer fret about it—It will come out all right in the end.” “You're a son to be proud of, Ben,” sald the older man hoarsely as he went away, Ben paused with his hand on the painter of the lighthouse motorboat, ‘The smile had faded and there was only the grimness left on his face. The boat was laden with supplies for the lighthouse, standing clean and white at the end of the long shoal two miles from the mainland, Ben was assistant Keeper there, and he and Daisy had planned an {dyllic life in thelr sea- bound home—but it was not to be. ‘Therefore, the lighthouse looked cold- er and lonelier than ever as his boat dashed across the bay. He might have been Jilted every day of the week for all the emotion he showed when he mounted the stairs to the cozy living room and told his uncle and aunt the news. Days, weeks and months went by and Ben Raymond found that time was a little solace. “I expect some day I'll be darned glad it happened,” he told himself savagely, as he polished the brasses and cleaned the big lenses, Tt was a wild autumn, with raging seas and furious winds that shook the building to its foundation. Folks ashore arose tn the night and looked off toward Sands Light to see {f some giant sea had not swept It away, but nothing happened until Christmas week, when a blinding snowstorm held the country in thrall and the friendly beams of Sands Light could scarcely be seen. “What's that?” bellowed the keeper above the noise of the horn, “Sea gulls—poor eritters,” muttered Ben. “Sounds like a ery—" The two men ‘rushed to a window and looked out. ‘At first nothing could be seen but the smothering cloud of snowflakes. ‘There was no sign of an unfortunate vessel bearing toward the shoal or the signal fires of the life saving statlon—yes, there were the fires miles below at Kitleut Beach—the life savers were out tonight. Off Kiticut Beach were the black rocks where another light was placed. But still came that In- sistent cry that seemed timed to sound whenever the foghorn paused. “[t's on the shoal below — maybe someone from the wreck off Kiticut,” shouted Ben and he pulled on his oll skins. “You'll be drowned!” warned his aunt, “But you've got to go, Benny.” For the first time since his broken engagement Ben laughed outright. He kissed his aunt and made for the lower floor. Half an hour afterward he brought up one by one four people, three women and one man, survivors from the wreck of the ship at Kiticut, who had been put into a small boat and had drifted to the friendly shelter of Sand Shoal. They were all warmly dressed and after the keeper and his family had worked over them for hours and put them to bed they slept all through the next day and In more or less degrees of stiffness, enme down to supper. ‘Two of the women were steward- esses on board the wrecked steamer, while the third was a passenger, a girl of twenty, with eyes like brown pan- sles wet with dew and the most ap- pealing sinfle Ben had ever seen. She was evidently in moderate circum- stances, and it developed that she was on her way from Boston to another city to find work. ‘The only man from the wrecked boat was a cook who could speak little Engitsh, but gave a lusty hand in helping Ben reach the life saying station. ‘The two women and the cook went away the following day, but thé gil who had lost all her belongings in the wreck, stayed on at Aunt Hannah's suggestion. “I need a light hand to help me with the work,” sald the as- tute old tady. So Marjorie Lee stayed on and helped @ good deal, and they all grew so fond of her that they would not let her go. She was an orphan, and ef Rae. ee. wae on Oa PRINTING PRINTING PRINTING THE CARROLL PRESS 400 South Capitol St. Book, Job, Commercial and Society Printing Henry W.

The management of The Tribune owes an apology to the many baseball fans of this city who have been accustomed to reading full accounts of all local baseball games on this page. At the beginning of the season, this page was turned over to Mr. Scott who conducted it very efficiently up to about three weeks ago, when he suddenly disappeared and up to the present time, no trace of him has been found. However, The Tribune management hopes that by next week a capable writer will be found to take charge of sports and again place this page back into the good grace of the loyal baseball fans. The Tribune strives to give complete details of all the games, but the various managers have not co-operated this year as they should. But we hope that from now on to the close of the season, that the managers and the editor of this page will be able to get together and give the fans all the local dope. All managers are requested to send in their schedules every week and to also send in their scores and any other news they may desire to be published. Very little has been heard from the Deanwood A. C., the St. Cyprians, Oriental Tigers, Piedmonts and the Georgetown Athletics. We would like to have these managers send in matter relative to their activities. Notice: Correspondents please write on one side of paper. Give date, time and place of all games. DUNBAR THEATRE 7th and T Sts. Open daily 3 p. m.

LEDROIT TIGERS CAPS NORFOLK SERIES The Ledroit Tigers journeyed to Norfolk, Va., last week and crossed bats with the Norfolk All-Stars in a series of three games. The Tigers captured two of the games. They lost the first by the score of 3 to 0, and won the second, 7 to 4, and the third, 9 to 0. The Tigers were without the services of Capt. Burrell Kenner, Sherman Baylor and Babe Adams. The absence of these men greatly weakened the team, but nevertheless they played a good brand of ball. Red Johnson, who pitched the first game for the Tigers deserved to win his game, but because his teammates failed to hit behind him, when hits meant runs, he was forced to accept defeat. Lefty George Smith in the second game was as wild as a march hare, walking seven men and hitting three, but he managed to tighten up when the danger signal was flashed. Benny Jefferson in the third game was master of the situation throughout the game and deserved his shut out. He allowed only one hit and he struck out 9 men. Several other games have been booked with out of town teams by the Tigers during the season. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1922 LEDROIT TIGERS AN ST. CYPRIAN TO PLAY SATURDAY A large crowd was disappointed last Tuesday, July 4th, when the game between the Ledroit Tigers and the St. Cyprians was called off because of wet grounds. Hundreds of loyal fans were turned away after making the journey to Union League Park. However, the game will be played this Saturday, July 8th. The game between the Tigers and St. C's, is sure to be a thriller whenever it is played. The St. C's have beaten every team in the city that they have played except the Tigers, and the Tigers have not lost a game this season. A hot time is expectd Saturday when they hook up. The big question is, can the St. C's break through the Tigers' defense? Both teams are out to win and a large crowd is expected to see who's right. ASBURY DEFEATS.ORIENTAL TIGERS IN FAST GAME. The Asbury A .C. defeated the fast and slugging "Oriental Tigers" to the tune of 7 to 6 on the iTgers' diamond last Sunday. The pitching of Taylor and the hard hitting of the Asbury nine mystified the bengals. The Asbury's next game is Sunday, July 9th on the Lakelands diamond, they will cross bats with the undefeated Maryland White Sox. The manager of the Asbury's would like to arrange games with some fast teams in Union League Park if possible. EASTERN GIANTS WIN TWO The Eastern Giants won a double header defeating the Diamond K team 9 to 4, and the Kramer St. Tigers 18 to 5. Lefty Joe Smith the pitching ace of the Eastern Giants twirled the first game and allowed but three hits. He started the second game but was taken out in the sixth. The final score was 11 to 2. Thomas knocked a home run with two Eastern Giants on the bases, Smith struckout seven in the first game and seven in six innings of the second game. I nthe second game Middleton relieved Smith and held the Tigers lead safe until the final frame when he blowed up and three runs came across. The Eastern Giants' Diamond is located at 17 and B St. N.E. The Eastern Giants would like to hear from the Georgetown Preps, Ledroit Cubs, and the Imperials, teams interested in the Eastern Giants whose average is 14 to 17 years, address Mark Curtis, manager, 1417 Duncan St., N.E. ST. CYPRIANS DEFEAT DEANWOOD A. C. St. Cyprians defeated Deanwood Sunday, July 2, at Union League Park. The fast St. Cyprian met their opponents defeating them to the tune of 9 to 4. The feature of the game was the hitting and brilliant fielding of C. Harris and the invincible pitching of Harrison Parker who relieved Fox. The St. Cyprians sent two Deanwood pitchers to the showers. A Correction The Alexandria All-Stars play Blad- ensburg instead of a Washington team as stated in the Alexandria news on page 2. The game will be played in Alexandria as therein stated. JUNIOR TEAM WANTS GAMES The Lafayettes Junior, of Alexandria, Va., a crackerjack young team, desires games with all junior or second-rate senior teams. This team has won 12 out of 13 games played. Address, Willow Martin, 1313 Queen St., Alexandria, Va. SPORTLETS By Quentin Jack Johnson queered his match with Tut Jackson by his exhorbitant demands and failure to deposit the required $2,000 and also failed to train properly. It seems he is determined to outlaw himself everywhere. State Commission is now taking steps to prevent Jack from fighting in the state of Ohio. Panama Joe Gans and his manager Leo Flynn are in bad in Cuba on account of Flynn demanding $500 bonus more than had been contracted for in a recently arranged match between Gans and Nero Chink thereby causing the match to fall through. Complaint was made to the New York State Athletic Commission by the National Boxing Commission of Havana. The affair will soon be thoroughly investigated. You're compelled to take your hats off to Damon Runyon, of the Washington Times, as being one of the fairest and most impartial sport writers in the country. The Photodramatic Race Track Classic of the Screen Queen O the Turf at the Dunbar Theatre, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, July 14, 15, and 16. Roberta "Bobbie" Morton is one of those delightful heroines who, although a tomboy at times, is at heart a "womanly" woman. She is the pride of Kangarooie Station. Her father owns the best blooded race horses that money can buy—his only disappointment being his scapegrace son, Dick, who has chosen city life rather than the home station and training stables which are Mr. Morton's pride—his life. Posing as a distant cousin, Jeffrey Manners, a congenial young man wanted for forgery, takes refuge in the Morton household and secretly falls in love with "Bobbie." Dennis O'Hara, a stout and free-hearted neighbor, who has known Bobbie from child-hood, avows his love for her and in return for considerable financial help to her brother, who has fallen into the clutches of Droone, a card shark and race track crook, "Bobbie" feels that she cannot refuse him, though he is many years her senior. On her birthday, Dennis presents Bobbie with a thoroughbred, a cup winner. Hearing that the famous horse has changed hands, Droone lost no time to find out the financial standing of the new owner and the condition of the horse. Droone, of course, has entered a horse in the race, whose only serious rival is the Morton entry. Toby Makin, the star jockey of the Morton stables, meets Droone and agrees to a frame up against his employer. Dingo, the stable boy, however, become suspicious of the pair and watches them carefully. On the eve of the race Dick learns of the plot and accuses Droone and his female accomplice. In a desperate fight against time Bobbie arrives after a wild flight in Dennis' aeroplane, receives Dick's message and declares that she will ride Alert herself. Meanwhile Droone and his accomplice, certain Dick would not come to, take their seats in the big stands at the race track, waiting to see their own horse win the event. But Bobbie managed to get to the starting post just in time to ride Alert and drive home in a hair-raising dead heat with Droone's horse, Sateen. Jeffrey Manners declares his love for Bobbie and confesses that he is not her cousin, nor is he a forger. He has assumed the guilt of his younger brother, who had now confessed to certain bank forgeries. Dennis grudgingly yields to claims of Bobbie's younger suitor and sails for England—the land of surplus women. LOCALS PULLMAN PORTER TIPS Alaska is having its first Pullman car service.

After two months' suffering with an acute case of jugglingitis, a disease that the bunkist contracted from Hock Murray, it gives me great pleasure to be at this scrivening game again. **** Arrived at my desk in the office of the Tribune. Was fairly well received in the editorial rooms, but was roughly handled in the mechanical department by Willie Mack, Socks and the entire force in general. Found the "Philosopher of Alexandria" snoozing. **** For the benefit of those, who may not know just what has caused the non-appearance of this column, the bunkist (the creator of this weekly space-filler) desires to state that he has been engaged in trying to put over one of the greatest tasks of his career —putting old Howard on the map again. * * * * Ran across A. J. Thomas, former owner of the Howard Theatre. 'Tis being buzzed around very freely that A. J. is going to take over the Lincoln. But nobody seems to know when. There are a lot of folk who are pulling for him to land this berth. Should A. J. cop it, 'twil no doubt change theatrical conditions locally. Like the Salvation Army motto: "A man may be down, but never out." --- Marshall Brothers, florists, is the firm name of another Negro concern, thats has just been formed. The establishment is located on Ninth street, near the corner of Florida Avenue.

She owns a number of spirited animals. It has been brought to the attention of the bankist that the Y. M. and the Y. W. have been considerably lax in caring for the less fortunate of our group, who have on numerous occasions made applications for aid. On one occasion, a young man in destitute circumstances, was directed to the Y. M. He was turned down. On another occasion, a young woman, greatly in need of assistance was directed to the Y. W., likewise she also met the same fate. If these cases be true, should we not make a thorough investigation and bring the responsible party or parties to an accounting? Who will get busy? Think of the membership drives. What do they mean? * * * Whether "The Cynic" is on the sick list, it is not known at this writing, but there have been many inquiries about his column.

By The Wa (Amzi Hamilton) MISS JOHNSON'S PUPILS A SPLENDID SUCCESS IN ANNUAL RECITAL The Annual Recital by pupils of Miss Eva Virginia Johnson, from classes in piano, and voice culture, took place Monday evening, June 26, at John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, before a very large and most appreciative audience. The pupils, amid the decorations of palms, presented a most beautiful sight. The program was of the highest order, and was splendidly presented, each pupil showing very careful training. One of the interesting features about the pupils taking part, is that they have been under Miss Johnson's instruction from the very beginning of their course. The young women from the voice cultude class showed exceptional ability, and splendid training which was manifested in the difficult songs they rendered. Rev. Charles E. Stewart, pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E. Church and a musician of national reputation presented certificates to pupils from the advanced and intermediate classes. Pupils receiving certificates, Advanced Class in Piano: Misses Dorothy Snowden, Julia Bailey, and Leola Robinson. Miss Mary Wells, received a certificate for a complete course in Piano study. From the Intermediate Class in Piano, Misses Emma Brown, Thelma Robinson, and Vivian Wilson. Miss Lillian T. Burke received a Certificate from the Intermediate Course in Voice Culture. Miss Johnson who is a graduate in music from the University of Pennsylvania, and a pupil of the late Dr J. W. Bischof, is one of the best prepared and trained musicians of the race, and one of our leading and most progressive teachers having one of the largest/classes in the city. By The Way (Amzi Hamilton) ```markdown ``` For clean wholesome diversion filling a long felt want in Washington we recommend the Suburban Gardens. There have been other amusement parks: Lake View, Eureka, Somerset Beach, Washington Park; but for convenience and entertainment the Gardens lead them all. Last summer it did not make a particularly strong appeal. There was no amusement for grown-ups except dancing, and the policy of charging admission at the gate and a further admission at the dancing pavilion kept many of these away. This year, however, there is no gate admission, one gets a free view of everything and pays only for the amusements he takes in. New features have been added, and for any grown-up who feels he needs a new sensation we suggest the aerial swing. There are still details in the management to be worked out, material improvements to be made in the walks and more features to be added. But the Gardens stand at this moment a timely enterprise of abundant promise and considerable achievement. There is fighting between the Free-Staters and the Republicans in Dublin. In its time it will end and Ireland will get the government which the majority of the Irish people want, led by men whom the majority of the Irish people are willing to recognize. The same sifting process is going on in China; in Germany, too, by the somewhat more restricted method of assassination. And the enemies of Mexico and Russia insist that they governments of these two countries do not represent the will of their respective peoples altho they are carrying on about as peacefully and as efficiently as some other governments we might mention. As for us at the present time our "recognized" leaders would seem to be slightly behind the times and only too often picked by our enterprising and "understanding" white friends. Dr. Dubus is too much concerned with being invited out; Mr. Moton is not concerned enough about where he eats and rides. Each has his place as a check on the other but neither knows the marciate spirit of the Negro boys who went thru the war. Most of these boys are studying and thinking, or else working now in order that they may have time to study and think tomorrow. When their thoughts do become crystalized into expression our white neighbors had better hearken, for these boys a few years hence are seriously to be recooked with. The Atlanta Independent recently carried an editorial protesting against the use of the word "Negro" in white papers without a capital "N" and calling for a boycott of all white papers which refuse to accord us this scanty measure of respect. In heartily indorsing the editor's lead we have only one suggestion. Let him himself set the pace by using "Negro" with a capital "N" whenever he has occasion to refer to our racial affiliation, and by keeping such terms as "race man" and "colored man" out of his cartoons. These terms are mere compromises and surrenders to the very prejudice which writes "Negro" with a small "n". As a matter of scientific definition our situation is hopeless; we are a new breed and it will take an altogether new term accurately to describe us. All races are colored, the so-called white included. "Race man" is weak. "Afro-American" is good as far as it goes but leaves out too much of the mixture that is in most of us. So since one term does about as well as another and since to the white races we are Negroes anyway, let us come out boldly as such with emphasis on the capital "N". AMZI HAMILTON Anacostia News Outside of the Citizens Association Celebration, the 4th of July was quietly observed throughout the suburb. The downpour of rain caused many to remain indoors.

Concealed Central Acrostic (Cleanliness) A clean body is a mark of refinement. The body is not clean though if you neglect your teeth,your ears, or your nose. Your hands are not clean if the nails of your fingers are dirty. Accept such food as prunes and figs. They are cleansing to the body. They help to remove old food from the body. Food kept in the body over twenty-four hours isn't healthy. Be clean in mind. Pick the words you use. Do not say those things you would not like for your mother to hear you say. Be careful about your conversation. Don't form the habit of trying to be funny often. Let what you say and write be such as to show that your brain contains clever and clean ideas. Be clean in your actions. Don't expose your body to unclean things. Remember that cleanliness is next to Godliness. To be thoroughly clean one's body must be clean, inside and out; one's morals, manners, conduct, thoughts and desires must be clean. Explanation: Select seven words containing five letters each from the above article on cleanliness.

LIVES OF GREAT MEN HERE is hardly anything more notable in the passing of events than is the fact that Negroes, who have accomplished great HERE is hardly anything more notable in the passing of events than is the fact that Negroes, who have accomplished great things, are being lauded and commemorated more today than ever before in the history of the world. Perhaps all of you are familiar with Longfellow's lines: "Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And departing leave behind us Footprints on the sands of Time." Perhaps, too, you connect these lines with white people only. But why? Deeds are not great or small because of the color of men's skins. 'Tis true that men of the colored races are not so well known, nor so much lauded as are the men of the white race. That is because public notice is censored, and distributed by the white press. Deeds worthy of special commendation, though kept from the light, always, sooner or later, become known, and the world gives praise where it should be given, and honor where honor is due. Here we have pictures of memorials dedicated to the memory of three of the greatest Negroes America has produced. A handsome monument has been erected in Rochester, New York, to Douglass was a great man. Douglass is referred to more often the memory of Douglass because Explanation: The letters in the words above are mixed. Arrange them and the sentence above will be complete.

WASHINGTON MONUMENT, TUSKEGEE INST., ALA. Is an American than he is as a Negro Accomplishments count. The other monument is that of Crispus Attucks erected in Boston. The smaller picture is of the Booker T. Washington memorial recently erected at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. We need not go into details concerning the lives of these three men. They were Americans of whom we know many interesting facts. They were men whom we can be inspired by. Cromwell, Oliver:—Born at Black Horse, Delaware (now Columbus). He was one of the men in the boat with Washington on his expedition across the Delaware. He also fought in the battle at Princeton with bravery on that memorable morning, December 26, 1776. At this decisive battle he distinguished himself and also at Yorktown. At the end of the war he received an honorable discharge from the army, his papers being signed by Gen. George Washington, Commander-in-Chief of the American Army. To see this name means absolutely nothing to you young readers of this page. It does not mean much to nineteenth of the older readers, yet in 1901 this name was known all over the civilized world. The Pan-American Exposition was held at Buffalo in 1901. William McKinley was President at the time. He attended the Exposition and on September 6 hundreds of people stood in line to shake hands with him. About half of the people in this line, anxious to shake hands with the President, were women and children. McKinley was very fond of children and he paid special attention to them on this occasion. In this line was a rather tall, boyish looking fellow, apparently twenty-five years old. His right hand was wrapped in a handkerchief and suspended in a sling. It had the appearance of being an injured hand. This young fellow extended his left hand to shake hands with the President. No sooner did his hand touch McKinley's than he whipped out his right hand from the sling and disclosed a revolver with NEGRO ENCYCLOPEDIA JOHN PARKER A great monument has been erected in Paris, France to the memory of Alexandre Dumas. Dumas is regarded as one of the world's greatest writers. He was born July 24, 1802, in Villers-Cotterets, France. His best known works are "The Three Musketeers," "Monte Cristo," and "La Reine Margot." Dumas died at the age of 68 years. The white press is being more liberal and the Negro press is getting stronger, hence we may expect more notice centered on our accomplishments that were centered on those of our parents. One or two generations back a Negro boy or girl would read the school books from which they were taught and wonder—what have my people done? No mention was given them. No inspiration was available for the ambitious Negro juvenile. He forged ahead without other inspirations than one of the following three motives: I want mother to be proud of me, or I want to make a name for myself, or if a white man can—so can I. But today you have access to literature from which you can gain inspiration to follow in the steps of Negro men and women whose names will not perish but which will live forever. Remember: Lives of great men all remind US WE can make OUR lives sublime, And departing leave behind US, Footprints on the sands of time. NOTE:-The two large cuts are reproduced from Mr. Murray's book on sculpture, by his permission. which he shot the President twice. A detective grabbed the youth whose name was Leon F. Czolgosz, and as the would-be assassin fell to the floor, John Parker, a colored man leaped upon him. Parker and a detective shielded Czolgosz from the angry mob. Parker was a waiter by trade but after the assassination he toured the country lecturing and selling his photographs. Some men attain popularity, some people have it thrust upon them and so it was with Parker. It came to him unbidden and as the years grow older, many, many, many years after he is dead—the name of John Parker will mean more than it does today. “T” stands for trust in a paper that’s true; “R” stands for the race, made of true blue; “I” stands for independence great and grand; “B” stands for brotherhood all over the land; “U” stands for unity, without it we won’t stand; “N” stands for nothing but that which is right; "E" stands for equality and for that we will fight. Are you and your tooth brush pals? Were I Not Myself Were I not myself I'd rather be some other Negro. To be a Negro is to be a man who must fight against odds. A man who fights against odds and wins is worthy of greater communication than a man who fights under favorable conditions. J. B. D. Six colored non-commissioned officers who rendered particularly gallant and meritorious services in the face of the enemy in the actions around Santiago on the first and second of July, 1898, in the Spanish-American War, were appointed second lieutenants in the two colored immune regiments organized under special act of Congress. These men were Sergeants William Washington, Troop F, and John C. Proctor, Troop I, of the Ninth Cavalry and Sergeants William McBryor, Company H; Wyatt Hoffman, Company G; Macon Russell, Company H, and Andrew J. Smith, Company B. of the Twenty-fifth Infantry, commanded by Colonel Daggett. These two regiments were in the thick of the fiercest fighting at ElCaney and San Juan and won high praise for their courage and efficiency. Although these six Negroes gained wide-spread renown during the Spanish-American War (fighting without any thought of being promoted beyond a non-commissioned officer's rank) they were at an early date mustered out of the service and as one writer puts it—"turned out on the cold world in their old age and with their honors full upon them, as not good enough to be officers in the regular army of the Republic." Children, if other Negroes can forge ahead, solely to prove to the world that the Negro can do—why should we, with all our means of education and our better inducements, be satisfied with being mere common bodies? Let each of us ask ourselves this question: "Am I going to stand still or am I going to forge ahead?" The race needs "forge aheaders." WANTED— Photographs of club groups of juveniles; infants' photographs; snap shots of Negro life, statutes, notables, etc.; drawings; essays; stories; original riddles or puzzles; narratives of Washington children who have done something noteworthy; Sunday School groups; book reviews. Forward them to Editor Children's Page, Washington Tribune, 920 U St., N. W., Washington, D. C. If you complain because you are a Negro—then God is displeased with you. He wanted you to be a Negro or else you would not have been one. I will not use the word "nigger."

PAGE SEVEN SEAS (A Poem for Children) Oh list to a tale o' the seven seas O' phantom ships that sail the blue; Oh list to the roll and swish o' the seas— List to the songs they sing to you. Oh the tale is thus (and 'tis not so long That wept brine tears where now are seas: And the winds blew North and South, blew East and West, And took the tears and dropped them round O'er the earth; o'er fields and the hills and trees Till the trees 'neath their weight bent down. Then Sol dried the tear stained eyes o' the stars. And there were seven silver seas And the seas were salt with the tears they'd shed they'd shed And salt was the breath o' the breeze Then pirates and poets and kings and fools 1001s Fought and killed on these seven seas Till each was red with the blood o' the dead, And bloody the smell o' the breeze. The tale o' the seas is as old as they, And is dyed in the deepest red— With the blood o' the salts who've done their bit And answered the call o' the dead. But what o' phantom ships and men? you ask; Oh they're the souls o' sailor men, And the souls o' the ships they rode and loved, For the ships have souls as well as men. Sure the ghosts o' the salts patrol the deep (I've often heard them call to me) As their ships careen o'er the swept sea lanes. When'er a ship goes down at sea The souls o' the dead they collect and keep In the bur'ed chest o' Davy Jones That's hid in the sands o' the briny deep; The chest that's made o' dead men's bones. O'er seven seas to the cave o' the winds When battles rage or danger's near. When the storm swept seas raise their anery heads. angry heads, There's a call that goes long and clear; 'Tis the souls o' the dead who sail the seas In ships that they loved and rode, Who call to the quick in the time of strife To come and join their phantom Ode And their ships are swift as the swiftest breeze, And white as the whitest pearl; And their call is long and lonesome and sad As their graves where the salt seas swirl. Oh the world is wide and the seas are, too, And blue as the blue o' the sky— But when seven seas raise their angry heads To the breeze, there's a phantom cry. And thus ends the tale o' the seven seas And phantom ships that ride the Main; And thus ends the tale o' the salt Sea Dogs Dogs Who sleep beneath the brine sea lane. JOSE' LOPEZ TRIBUNITE NOTE:--Do you know of any special accomplishment of a colored lad or lass of Washington? If so send it in. These following facts have come to our notice. We do not want our accomplishments hidden. For that reason the Editor is ever alert to what his little friends are doing. Our first "Honor Child" Mary A. Thomas (and by being listed today as an "Honor Child" she stands as the first and the last) has graduated from Shaw Junior High School. She also made the presentation of a picture of Miss Lucy D. Slowe to the school. This picture was a gift to the school by her class. Mary made an average of 91:25 per cent. The honor of being first in her class was shared with Dorothy Robinson. She is a good writer of stories and in the last issue of the Junior Review she had an article in Spanish and a narrative under the caption of "The Lincoln Memorial and the Potomac." She is attending summer school at Dunbar to continue her studies in Spanish.

Subscription Rates: One Year $2.50; Six Months $1.25 THE DYER BILL AND THE N. A. A. C. P.—SOME QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 80 The following letter from Mr. L M. Hershaw is printed as received Our answers to his questions follow his letter. Editor The Tribune: I wonder if I would be considered a trespasser upon your patience and tolerance, should I ask space to make the following inquiries growing out of your editorial of last week on the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People? The questions are propounded for the reason that you did not make your position clear as to matters suggesting them. 1. Do you favor or not, federal legislation intended to deal with the lynching evil? I drew the inference that you do not favor such legislation. Am I correct? 2. Is there any way by which any law which runs counter to the views of a compact and determined minority can be enforced, unless the body of citizens favoring such law, organize and cooperate with the legal authority? I gathered from the editorial that you had in mind another way by which it might be done. 3. In the case of a group composed of ten and three-quarters millions of people who are struggling for political, economic and educational equality, what in the light of the experience of other groups, would be a reasonable budget to support an organization devoted to propaganda intended to achieve these ends? The editorial left this matter in the dark. Or, may be, it did not intend to deal with it; yet there is that in it about the N. A. A. C. P., raising money which gives rise to the question. 4. Why would you give the question of Hayti precedence over that of lynching? You suggested that the National Association should have done this. 5. What is the evidence that the anti-lynching bill is a "gold brick," and is not offered in good faith? I am sure you will agree with me that a charge of this kind should be accompanied with specifications. I conceive that full and explicit answer to these questions will eventuate in our knowing whether or not there is an issue between us. Mr. Hershaw's questions show that he misses the purport of the editorial mentioned. First: Whether or not we favor federal legislation intended to deal with lynchings is not the issue in the editorial. However, we can assure him that The Tribune is against lynching and mob violence first, last and all the time and would favor federal intervention to stop lynching, but do not feel that the Dyer Bill will be the modus operandi; nor have we any confidence in the Republican Administration enforcing such a law. We would call his attention to the fact that the Dyer Bill is one thing and lynching is another. Our editorial was dealing with the Dyer Bill and its futility. Second: This question appears irrelevant. The Dyer Bill does not "run counter to the views of a compact and determined MINORITY." On the contrary it "runs counter" to a very determined MAJORITY. The lynchers are very much in the majority all over this country and particularly in the South. It is a very small minority that is in favor of the Dyer Bill. If the "views" of the majority of people in the various southern states "ran counter" to lynching we would have no need for a Federal law to stop it; public sentiment would enforce state laws which are already sufficient—if enforced. Third: It is true that the editorial left the matter of a budget in the dark. We do not attempt to fix the budget for any organization. But there is no organization so far as we know which is actually or effectively fostering "political, economic and educational equality," for our group—certainly the N. A. A. C. P. falls far short of any right to claim a monopoly of such efforts. Fourth: We do not give the freeing of Haiti precedence over the suppression of lynching. Read the editorial again. It says: "The N. A. A. C. P. would have gained far more glory and rendered a greater service to have CONTINUED THEIR FIGHT for the relief of Haiti from American oppression, than it is GOING TO GET OU THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE OF the Dyer Bill fight." Nothing about lynching mentioned there. It is the useless fight for the futile Dyer Bill that we refer to. And ,too, if it was important enough to send a man to Haiti and have him spend six weeks obtaining data for a fight, why not press that fight to a finish and not abandon it on half way ground? Fifth: We did not say that the Dyer Bill was a "gold brick." This sentence appears in the editorial: "Now they have an anti-lynching bill before the Congress of the United States, which was termed 'a gold brick' BY TWO SENATORS this week." And by the way the New York World in an editorial says: "The Dyer bill is a pure fake." And in another paragraph it says it is "a bill that the entire Senate knows to be not worth the paper it is printed on." We'd not label it a "gold brick" but told of Senators Borah and Nelson calling it that. However, we are very much of the opinion that it is. Our grounds for saying so are these: we have no confidence in the sincerity of Mr. Dyer, nor the Republican Administration. Mr. Dyer, is aware of the fact that he cannot be elected without the colored vote of St. Louis. He has agreed to father this bill because he wants to return to Congress and eventually the Senate. Would a man, who is sincere for human rights address a committee of six men as "boys"? We were present with a committee which called on Mr. Dyer at his office, and when he entered, even before asking us to be seated, he said: "What do you boys want?" Does that sound like a man who is sincere about human rights? Before the rules committee of the House, when they were holding hearings to determine the granting of a rule to admit this bill to the calendar of the House, Mr. Dyer made a very poor showing which convinced us of his lack of sincerity—or perhaps of ability or confidence in his measure. The N. A. A. C. P. has become too much of a high brow organization and its sincerity in the interest of the masses—and its political independence —is questioned by many. If it is sincere, why did it abandon the fight against jim crowism in the Departments here and against jim crow cars. The common people have to ride in them; the "high brows" can get Pullmans. It started a big fight against jim crow segregation in the Departments here in Washington. The local branch raised more than $3,000 here on that issue and also ran up a big membership here on that plea. What became of that money and how many colored employees received any relief from the segregation rules? Are they not yet in force as when the fight (?) on them began? The Declaration of Independence which we celebrated Tuesday, says; "All men are created free and equal." The President of the United States, and the titular head of the Republican party said at Birmingham that there is "an inescapable difference" between Negroes and white people which Negroes cannot hope to eliminate. Jim crowism, segregation and disfranchisement are all against the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of these United States. The Republicans are in power now and claim to be friends to the Negro. As officers of the Government they have sworn to uphold the Constitution. Every Negro in this country is aware of the fact, whether he will say so or not, that this Republican administration has fallen down miserably. How can we have any confidence in the party or the administration? How can the N. A. A. C. P. which purports to be "for the race" expect our support and confidence if it snuggles up to the Hardings the Dyers and the other fakers who are running it—at present? ANDREW J. THOMAS SUG CEEDS RUEFUS G. BYARS ANDREW J. THOMAS SUG CEEDS RUEFUS G. BYARS The Lincoln Theatre, which is the finest, largest and most elaborately equipped playhouse for our people in this Country, was incorporated by the Lincoln Theater Company under the laws of the State of Delaware. The important fact which our people have not known before and in which we are quite sure that they will take exceeding great pride, is that three of the original incorporators of this theatre are prominent members of our race, namely, Judge Robert H. Terrell, Dr. Edward D. Williston and Lawyer Armond W. Scott and the Lincoln Theater is now controlled by a Board of Directors consisting of five of the most prominent and professional business men of our race in this city, who are as follows: Judge Robert H. Terrell, judge in the Municipal Court for many years, Lawyer Armond W. Scott, a successful attorney and Past Exalted Ruler of the Elks; Dr. Edward D. Williston, one of the most prominent physicians in the District of Columbia and who is beloved by everybody; Mr. Moses Dade, well-known business man and Mr. George W. Robinson, who is one of the largest junk dealers in the District of Columbia. After very carefully considering a number of men in connection with the management of the Lincoln Theater the board finally decided upon Mr. Andrew J. Thomas; first, because he opened the way for our people to enjoy high class amusement in their own playhouses and during his career as a theater manager, he was at all times courteous and grateful to the general public and the Board of Directors feels that the public will appreciate this recognition given Mr. Thomas in consideration of his past services to our people in the District of Columbia and will loyally rally to his support in helping him to give to our people the opportunity to continue to enjoy the very highest class of amusement in a playhouse which is equipped with every modern appliance, which contributes to the pleasure and comfort of its patrons. BOARD OF DIRECTORS LAND SWINDLE SCHEME EXPOSED LAND SWINDLE SCHEME EXPOSED (Continued from page 1) Aladdin Realty and Home Builders Corporation, 205 W. Lombard Street, Baltimore, Md. I am a colored woman and I live at home with my husband in the city of Baltimore. On or about March 1, 1922, I was employed by Mr. William V. Warshaw, of the Aladdin Realty and Home Builders Corporation as an agent to interest colored people in Washington in certain lots which the corporation proposed to sell at a point about twelve miles from Baltimore. I was told that the corporation was going to give away 300 lots to colored people. My duty was to go to Washington and distribute "leads" or cards among the colored people, telling them at the time that by signing their names and addresses on these cards they would place themselves in position to win in each case one of these "valuable" lots absolutely free of charge. There was also a white woman employed and her duty and mine was to work the District of Columbia After the "leads" were signed up and turned in at the office in Baltimore, the plan was to have the signers notified that their lots were ready for them and all they had to do was to pay a small charge to cover expenses. Then for the first time they would learn that they were to pay $69.00 and that their lots after all were not to be "absolutely free of charge" as they had been told in the beginning. Then the next surprise they got was the information that after paying in the $69.00, the corporation would build houses for them on their "free" lots for $330.00. After working for several weeks my suspicion became aroused as to the honesty of these people and whether or not they were doing a legitimate business with my race. I inquired of them on three occasions as to be sure of this fact. Finally, I became convinced that it was not, and from every evidence they desired to use me as a tool and convenience. It was then that we disagreed, as I am sure no decent lady would tolerate a position of this kind after knowing and feeling as I did. One morning shortly after my third inquiry, Mr. Warshaw called me into his office, told me my work had not been satisfactory and offered me what he said was half a week's pay. I refused to accept what he offered and he finally gave me what he had previously been paying me each week, but at no time during my service did I receive the pay that I was promised. I spoke to a lawyer in Washington about the matter and he wrote a letter to the corporation demanding the balance of my pay but the company answering through Mr. Forrest Bramble, of the law firm of Barton, Wilmer & Barton, of Baltimore, refused to recognize my claim. I make this statement because I feel it is a duty that I owe to my race, not only to tell them how I was treated by the Aladdin Realty and Home Builders Corporation, but to warn them and put them on their guard, so that if they have any dealings with these white people whose whole purpose is to get rich out of the hard-earned savings of poor colored people, they will at least do so with their eyes wide open and not be hoodwinked as I was.
