NEWSPAPER MEN IN ENTHUSIASTIC TWO DAY SESSION
Called On Senators Lodge Shortridge, McCormick and the President
The National Negro Press Association met in a special two day session at the Mo-So-Lit Club, 1827 R Street, N.W. last Monday morning, August 14. The meeting was called to order by the president J. Finley Wilson of The Washington Eagle. The special session was called to hear the report of Benjamin J. Davis, editor of The Atlanta Independent, and chairman of the Ways and Means Committee. The report of editor Davis furnished the topic of discussion for the entire day's session. In his report to the general body, editor Davis, told of the correspondence he had carried on with over a hundred newspapers and stated that about 50 has signified their willingness to join the association. His report also covered the criticisms the various editors made about the organization. His report was very comprehensive and covered many details.
The Monday's session opened at 10 o'clock A.M. and remained in continuous session until seven o'clock P.M. Many important topics affecting the progress of Negro journalism were thoroughly discussed and before the meeting was over, a most constructive program was outlined. The men in attendance were very enthusiastic and determined, which accounted for the very long first day session.
Before adjourning Monday evening, a special committee was appointed to call on Senator Lodge, Senator Shortridge and President Harding in reference to the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill, now in the Senate. The committee called on Senator Lodge Tuesday morning in the Foreign Relation Committee room, U. S. Capitol. The committee was composed of J. Finley Wilson of The Washington Eagle, H. Allen Boyd, Nashville Globe, C. A. Barnette, Associated Negro Press Service, R. J. Nelson of the Wilmington Advocate, Arthur W. Lynch of the Philadelphia Public Journal, J. E. Mitchell of the St. Louis Argus, N. D. Brascher of the Associated Negro Press Service, S. G. Lamkins, Indianapolis Freeman, William O. Walker, The Washington Tribune, W. T. Andrews, Baltimore Herald, Melvin J. Chism, press correspondent and former president of the association, and Miss Geneieve M. Reuben press correspondent. Melvin J. Chism was committee spokesman.
In addressing Senator Lodge, Mr. Chism told of the purpose the committee's coming. He stated that the editors of Negro publications were being besieged with inquiries from their readers regarding the status of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill and that the editors could no longer pacify their readers by saying that the bill may soon come up. He further stated that the Negro race is today demanding that the bill be passed at this session of congress, and that if it did not pass, the colored voter would then hold the Republican party responsible and do everything in its power to defeat it even to the voting of the Democratic ticket. Senator Lodge stated that the Republicans had done many things for the Negro that he should not forget, and at which point Mr. Chism replied that the Negro had also done many things for the Republicans that they should not forget, and that regardless of the past attitude of the party, the Negro demands the passage of the Anti-Lynching legislation or else he will be forced to follow President Harding's advice and withdraw his sole allegiance to one party. Mr. Chism stated that the Negro would just as well suffer under the Democrats as under the Republicans, that if the Republican party could not ease their burdens, then there was no choice.
Senator Lodge promised to do all in his power to have the bill brought up but was fearful that when it was brought up, that the Democrats would start a fillubuster upon it, that would be more than the Republicans could overcome.

SCOTTISH RITE'S 12TH TRIENNIAL SESSION SUCCESS
Of the several divisions and bodies of the International Conference of Masons recently held in our city, none stood out more prominent and preeminent than the twelfth Triennial session of the United Supreme Council Scottish Rite Masonry. This session was brought forward from October to August to accommodate and help to inspire the best men and women of the other bodies.
Monday morning, August, 7, the assembly was called to order in the new Scottish Rite Temple at 1633 11th Street, N.W., by the Sovereign Grand Commander of the Southern Jurisdiction, R. L. Pendleton. There were many notables and other visitors from all parts of the country and from the Northern Jurisdiction. Among them were Grand Master W. S. Webber of Oklahoma; Major O. W.

On the suggestion of the Sovereign Grand Commander, R. L. Pendleton, the ladies organized "The National Association of Assemblies of the Golden Circle." Its purpose is to promote a closer relationship among the assemblies of the Southern Jurisdiction. The officers elected were: Loyal Lady Ruler, M. A. Parker of Washington, D.

FINANCE CORP. MAKING GREAT PROGRESS
Wilmington, Delaware—Colored citizens of Wilmington, and the State of Delaware had opportunity Monday evening, August 14th, at Bethel A. M. E. Church, of which Rev. C. W. Stewart is pastor, to hear a discussion by Mr. John R. Hawkins, Financial Secretary of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, of the industrial and economic problems with which the colored people of this country are confronted.
Mr. Hawkins, who is treasurer of the Allied Industrial Finance Corporation, the recently organized company which has for its purpose the solving of the industrial and economic problems of the colored peole, came to Wilmington in response to a special invitation of a number of prominent citizens who have evinced deep interest in the program of the Allied Industrial Finance Corporation, presented to them by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, the president of the Corporation, at the recent Industrial and Economic Conference held in Wilmington. He was accompanied to Wilmington by Mr. Norman L. McGhee, the secretary of the finance company.
Mr. Hawkins in his address called attention to the particular need for uniting the savings of all classes in the Negro race that such savings may be used for the benefit of the whole group. He emphasized the need for just such a corporation as the Allied Industrial Finance Corporation and spoke of the very definite things it can do to raise the standard of living and the economic status of our racial group. In referring directly to the Allied Industrial Finance Corporation, he stated:
"The Allied Industrial Finance Corporation stands out pre-eminently as the most practicable, feasible and hopeful basis as a clearing house for business operated directly under the management and control of Colored people. From a careful study of existing conditions in the financial world, it is found that of all great financial institutions doing the business of the country today representative groups of individuals and smaller corporations make it possible to handle almost any problem that conditions present. There is no need of discounting the fact that though there may not be any 'color' in business, the colored man finds his business very much affected by a reason of the fact that he is colored. Some of our best friends

MANY ATTEND DEDICATION OF DOUGLASS HOME
Impressive Ceremonies Carried Out by Officers of Women's Clubs
One of the outstanding events in the history of the Negro in America, was the dedication of the home of Frederick Douglass, as a shrine for the race, last Saturday, when people from all over the United States, assembled at the home in Anacostia, there paying tribute to his memory, by dedicating the home and unveiling several tablets.
The dedication was held under the auspices of the Douglass Memorial and Historical Association, led by Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, Buffalo, N. Y., president, and Mrs. Nettie L. Napier, Nashville, Tenn., custodian of funds.
There were two exercises held Saturday. The first was that of the "flag raising program" which began at one o'clock. The dedicatory exercises began at two o'clock. After the religious exercises, Mr. Mortimer M. Harris, of Washington, the man most responsible for the saving, restoring and dedicating of this home, was the first speaker. Mr. Harris recited his activities as financial secretary of the men's organization which was trying to redeem the home. After a year's efforts he met the Women's Federation in Baltimore in 1916 and there offered the home to them. They accepted Mr. Harris' offer, and so grateful was he for the relief they gave him that he said to them Saturday: "Thank God for the women of our race—they are the true keepers of our homes—the bulwark of our churches, the mainsprings of our business endeavor and the vicegerents of our race's integrity."
Mrs. Booker T. Washington, of Tuskegee, Ala., was presiding at the Baltimore Convention, when Mr. Harris made his appeal. She followed him Saturday, telling of the answer the women made to him and how well they have kept their pledge.
"Our Co-operation" was the subject from which Miss Hallie Q. Brown of Wilberforce, O., spoke. Miss Brown is president of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs. She brought a large delegation from their meeting in Richmond, Va., for this occasion.
Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, Washington, was assigned "Looking Backward" as her subject. She told of many interesting incidents during her acquaintance with Mr. Douglass.
Miss Elizabeth Carter, New Bedford, Mass., expressed the hope of the association in her subject: "Looking Forward."
"Our Determination" was expressed by Mrs. Sallie W. Stewart, Evansville, Ind., "God knew hat we needed Douglass" said Mrs. Stewart, "at the time He sent him, and not another has reached his sphere.
Joseph Douglass, grandson of the lamented Frederick Douglass rendered an impressive violin solo. He and Mrs. Frederica Douglass-Spriggs were presented to the assembly as the grand children of Mr. Douglass. Mrs. Lewis Douglass, the oldest daughter-in-law of Mr. Douglass was also presented. Hon. Chas. Cottrell, Toledo, Ohio, Past Imperial Potentate of the Shriners, was delegated to represent the Masons, on the program. William Pickens, New York City, spoke for about an hour, reviewing the life of Douglass from his birth to his grave. Speaking of this exercise Mr. (Continued on page 8)

WOMEN DISCUSSED IMPORTANT PROBLEMS AT CONVENTION
WOMEN DISCUSSED IMPORTANT PROBLEMS AT CONVENTION
A progressive program, with national speakers, well versed in their particular line, made the 13th biennial session of the National Association of Colored Women, in Richmond, Va., August 6 to 12, the most far-reaching and beneficial session in the history of the association.
The National Association of Colored Women was organized twenty-six years ago, in Washington, when two small groups of club women combined. The association now comprises, forty-eight state organizations, with 100,000 members.
The address of the President, Miss Hallie Q. Brown, of Wilberforce, Ohio, was forceful, instructive and inspiring.
Miss Brown suggested four recommendations to be submitted to the National Council of Women's Clubs, composed of 87 organizations, of which the National Association of Colored Women is one. (1) That there should be colored men and women on all educational boards; (2) the raising of the age of consent; and one moral standard for men and women; (3) the abolition of lynching; and (4) the enforcement of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.
Most of the work of the session was accomplished thru departmental work, which was presented by programs, lectures, discussions and demonstrations. Many specialists and experts from national organizations were secured to instruct and inspire the delegates interested in particular activities. "Home Hygiene" was presented by Mrs. Louis J. Ross, of New Orleans, La.; Correct Posture for Health, Hygiene and Comfort, was presented by Mrs. J. E. Shipp, Jackson, Miss., a registered corsetierie. Some of the departments were: needlework, fine arts, forestry, social science, associated charities, juvenile court, eugenics, home economics, literature, lynching, defense, health, hygiene, neighborhood union, colored business women, industry, scholarship.

THE HIDDEN POWER
By Lewis Hillman
A strong drama of a Colored Man who set a great standard—the best work of the author of "Cornered," "The Golden Scheme," "Breathless Moments," etc.
(Copyright 1922, John Lewis Hillman)
THE STORY SO FAR: Harrison Clay, a student of Tulgee University, is enthralled by the wise words of Prof. Grandstone, a philoprogenitive philosopher, when the latter asserts that within Harrison lies a great hidden power. Intending to give Harrison all the best educational advantages, Gordon Clay, his father, decides to withdraw his lifetime savings held in trust by his employer, James J. Wormley (white).
Shortly, after, Harrison rescues a fourteen-yearlold white girl from drowning, incidentally saving a colored youth from a mob. Later revelation disclose the youth had only a momentary respite from the mob, and was lodged in jail. Harrison's father goes the boy's bond and the latter abseconds to the North.
After mortgaging his home to cover the released man's default, Gordon Clay is further depressed by the news that James J. Wormley dropped dead of heart, failure while at Cincinnati.
While Harrison goes west to make his way in the world, his father takes sick in the little Dixie town of Pomeroy.
Emily sends a letter to Harrison to bring him home because of his father's serious condition; and for several weeks Harrison fails to put in appearance. Thro' an act of kindness, Harrison makes friends with Ralph McMahon, an Irish lad; and the latter enables him to return home, when he received the belated letter.
Harrison returned to the west, and after various vicissitudes, secured a position which promised success. Bringing to the attention of his employer, Mr. Lawson, an anonymous letter—of damning purport regarding himself—he learns that his father had once befriended the other; then he is appointed manager of the branch office in Coldpeg, Prince Edward Isle. A visit to his old home town convinced him that another had alienated Emily's affections; his return to Coldpeg was followed by his enlistment in the Canadian army for the duration of the world war. A year afterward Prof. Grandstone and Emily were informed of Harrison's death at the front.
Time discloses that fact that Harrison is a convalescent patient in the hospital at Coldpeg, P. E. I., has lost his memory from shell-shock, and thro' error is known as Ralph McMahon. One day his nurse, Ethel Gearhardt, informed him that his father and mother were coming to see him. Ethel's sympathy for her patient soon blossomed into love, though the girl was a French heiress.
Noiselessly she admitted the American couple.
"Why, hello, Ralph!" they breathed, graciously coming forward.
"To whom are they talking?" Harri

son inquired of the nurse
"To you, Ralph" came from Ethel Gearhardt. "Don't you know them?" "Never saw them before." The patient gazed listlessly at his visitors. "We're your aunt and uncle," explained the man who was Gordon Price. "We haven't seen Ralph since he was five years old," he went on to the nurse. "While visiting in Montreal, I got a wire from Mr. McMahon to drop in over here and see how his boy was getting along." "Have you got a job for me?" ventured Harrison, not in the least enthused in any other direction. "The nurse says I can get out of this place as soon as I get a job." Expectantly he looked from one to the other.
"We're going back to New York in a couple of weeks; then you may go with us," said Gordon Price. "And I'll have a position for you in our brokerage firm in the metropolis."
In due time, Harrison Clay, physically fit, started on another business career in New York. Thither Ethel Gearhardt followed him; for she was more interested in his restoration than she realized. She arranged to have him examined by one of the greatest psychologists in the country.
"Will his mind ever become stable again?" she asked the specialist, after the examination. "Is there any hope for his recovery?" Her pleading voice evinced more than ordinary concern.
"There is just one possible chance," vouchsafed the psychologist, frowning slightly. "Here's the key. You must learn all his past life. Then, by talking over old times you may hit upon the psychological word or phrase which will cause his awakening. Still, it may be brought about by his meeting an old associate. He has an unusual capacity for figures; but that will recede to normal when his mind regains its poise."
As the days went by, Ethel left no stone unturned to learn the past life of Ralph McMahon. Chance favored her one day. At a corner of congested traffic she saw Harrison afoot among the motley horde and waved her kerchief to him. She bade him jump in her limousine; she would take him home.
"Don't you remember Buddy King, Jimmy Crane and Arthur Moore?" she queried, after their customary salutations.
"I really never heard of them before," replied Harrison evenly. "It's very thoughtful of you to try and help me out; but it's no use."
Then Ethel realized her humane concern for the man had caused her to fall in love with him. Why not? He was the nicest man in the world; just splendid. A thrill of hope sent a flush to her cheeks when she uttered her next words. "A Mr. Gray will be in town this evening—he says he knew you in Chicago."
"My father, Mr. McMahon, will be here next week," added Harrison.
Then Ethel became jubilantly positive that a few more days would affect a complete mental cure for her friend.
When evening's sunset was deepening into dusk, Ethel and Mr. Gray called to see Harrison.
"The war made a terrible change in you," remarked Mr. Gray. "I would not have recognized you, but for your name. Don't you remember me and all the rest of our set?" The man before him was of the same height as of yore, Gray reasoned. But his features seemed changed—the horrible experiences in the trenches, maybe?

From the
CYNIC'S
Notebook
On the way to his daily work The Cynic passes by the main entrance of several large establishments, including two or three government departments, about the time the employees are thronging in during the last few minutes before "the bell rings." For blocks in all directions they may be seen coming—some leisurely, but the majority walking as rapidly as they can or even running. Many are panting, almost breathless and apparently exhausted—before the day's work has begun.
It is not an uncommon sight to see women and men, some past middle age, some that might be called old—to say nothing of the hundreds of younger ones—running for half a block or so then walking hastily for a few steps only to break into a run again; and so on for several blocks, in a frantic, often futile, effort to get in the door—just to get in: step in, stumble in, fall in, but get in—before the bell taps.
If The Cynic were of a sympathetic temperament he would perhaps feel sorry for these unfortunate people, many of them risking their lives across traffic crowded streets; all of them shortening their days by the too oft repeated strain. The Cynic has seen people thrown down and trampled upon in the mad rash from the last few street cars which arrive at or draw near the entrances. But he is not so much moved by pity as by wonder—cynical wonder—that the modern employer or boss, who talks so loudly about "efficiency" should overlook—much less connive at or compel—such a palpable, irrecoverable waste.
Let some efficiency expert stand some morning near, say, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing or any of the large shops, or any of those government departments which are run like "shops," and make a rough estimate on how much the boss gains—or loses—by having the "hands" especially he women, run two or three blocks (only to tumble in the door exhausted) in order not to be "tardy." Let him ask himself what proportion of their proper "output" will these people who rush for blocks—especially these sultry mornings—"deliver" during the first hour, or even during that day.
Of course somebody will say that the tardy people deserve no consideration, for most often it is their own faults—they should start from home sooner. And, even if it be shown that the cars were late, or did not run at all, the answer still comes: "Let them start earlier—plenty early—for they know that the cars are often late. Why," say these censors who always play safe, "Why," they say with swelling pride, "I haven't been tardy but once in . . ."
But remember, please, The Cynic has already stated that he has no tears to shed over these late comers, however much they may suffer in getting to the door or after falling in—safely; he is concerned about the poor employer and his loss of "productive time," which means loss of good hard dollars.
Here is an opportunity for some efficiency expert, or commission, to make a "survey" and produce a remedy or remedies( perhaps the more the better): severer penalties, a sliding scale of docking or of demerits—more bull or a louder whip cracking of some sort to cut down or cut out tardiness; or possibly, on the other hand, a frank recognition of its inevitability (like say, perspiration) especially during the sultry weather when one can hardly get good to sleep before the daylight-saving alarm goes off.
But wait; The Cynic is now himself proposing remedies—let the efficiency experts do that (they get paid for their services)—The Cynic's self-imposed job is merely the diagnosing of maladies; and surely this is one. One thing, however, seems clear; there is at least a hundred times as much actual loss, in "productive time," in the prevailing struggle of employees to avoid tardiness, as there would be if the people who exhaust themselves more or less to avoid it, were permitted to "come along" in a leisurely way and set to work un-furried and un-exhausted. Whether or not such "leniency" would tend to increase the number of those who are tardy or near-tardy The Cynic will not venture an opinion at this time. But while waiting to hear the bosses' whips crack louder and oftener, bear in mind that it is not so much tardiness as near-tardiness and the effects put forth to escape it—the fear of the whip—which causes the actual loss of time and productiveness.
Speaking of remedies for apparently
incurable maladies: a few days ago, in the course of his work, The Cynic came across in a medical publication a copy of a prescription which a certain Doctor Taylor claimed that he had used in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis during fifty years of practice. The prescription, which was originally printed in another medical journal, called for the compounding into a so-called "T-B tablet" of different proportions of the following; red iodide of mercury, manganese iodide, sodium cinnamate, copper phosphate, sodium formate, arsenous acid, strychnine hypophosphite, iodized calcium, oil of cinnamon, charcoal. To be taken three times a day for fifteen days; rest five days, then repeat.
Commenting on the prescription, the writer of the medical article who reproduced it in his "Therapeutic Notes," says: "The treatment may be kept up from two to twelve months to perfect the cure." He also adds, blandly: "The physiological action of the ingredients entering into the composition of T-B tablets is to revive cell life, promote rapid corpuscle building, accelerate retarded metabolism and increase phagocytosis." Further he states: "Open air treatment is an adjunct to this treatment so is also a proper regulation of the diet."
The "open air" treatment is evidently a concession by the old doctor to the more modern ideas, for this so-called open-air "treatment" came into vogue long after his prescription was devised, fifty years or more ago. But the old doctor makes yet a further concession to newer medical ideas; for, says the commentator: "Vaccine injections, given sub-cutaneously in the arm every third or fourth day are recommended, tho' the author [Dr Taylor] did not indicate the preparation to be used."
Now to The Cynic, not the least interesting thing about the matter is that the writer of the "Therapeutic Notes," wherein this prescription and "treatments" are reproduced, and commented upon with such delicious facetiousness, is a Negro, writing for a Negro medical journal; and he is quoting the prescription with its adjunct treatments from a white medical journal of recent date (April, 1922). To be sure, that journal, too, may have reproduced it as an "awful example," but there is nothing in the "notes" to indicate it.
The above is a good example of what is called the "shot gun" prescription; that is, the giving of a dozen or so drugs, or remedies or treatments, more or less unrelated therapeutically and often antagonistic in effect—the firing of a handful of shot in the hope that one or other may hit.
But it is not in medicine alone that these "shot gun" remedies (?) may be found. They are found in other callings; e. g., the law. A recent example is a proposed anti-lynching law now being loudly clamored for by many folks (including some lawyers) which proposes to remedy lynching by punishing the mob, penalizing the sheriff, mulcting the county, and humiliating the governor and the local courts by "going over their heads" in prosecuting the case or cases. Here are remedies through actions criminal, civil, political and psychological.

PROF. HOUSTON OFFERED
POSITION
Prof. G. David Houston, head of the Department of Business Practice in the Dunbar High School, recently turned down an offer of the presidency
of Lincoln College, located at Jefferson City, Mo. Lincoln College is the largest school of learning in the State of Missouri and is supported by state appropriations. Prof. Houston in his present capacity has made quite a record, and his department has greatly expanded under his direction. So large has it grown, that the school officials are now considering a separate building to house it.
Their new home, which will be in the 1300 block of 7th Street, will be up-to-date in every detail. The management promises to give the same individual attention to every customer that has characterized this store since it opened. During this month they are running an Annual Rummage Sale which in reality is a money-losing sale, for everything is being priced low in order to clear their shelves of all small and broken lots of merchandise, and also to make room for their wonderful line of fall merchandise which will enhance the beauty of more than one of their customers.

Doctors to Meet [Here
(Contitiea Freak page 1)
At the same place and under the
same conditions referable’to early oc-
cupancy of seats, on the evening of
Wednesday a public health session
will be held under the direction of Dr.
Roscoe C. Brown of the Public Health
Service, This session will be of tre-
mendous importance and interest, and
it is expected that the general public
will fill the available space at an early
hour. Both of these sessions are open
to the public and no cards of admis-
sion are required. Following this lat-
ter session the delegates and their
companions repair to the Howard
‘Theatre where a special program for|
their edification will be arranged. |
_ On the evenings of Thursday
and Friday, social affairs to which
the general public is admitted will be
held at Suburban Gardens and Con-
vention Hall respectively. The recep-
tion at Convention Hall is expected to
eclipse anything of its kind ever be-
fore held by colored people.
There has been created a ladies aux-
iliary consisting of the wives of the
members of the local medical men.
The function of the auxiliary is to
entertain the visiting ladies of the
Convention. They have arranged cer-
tain social affairs which will serve to
disillusion those who ascribe to Wash-
ington a degree of frigidity which
makes it impossible for ordinary
strangers to weather its social atmos-
where.

Some of the joys found in attend-
ing the movies: Loud reading of the
titles, gum popping, humming, beating
time on the back of the seats with feet
or hands and last but not least the
running of the pictures and titles so
rapidly that it is hard for the spec-
tator to grasp what it is all about.

From sin and ignorance and lust.

VISITING HOSPITALS
Do you ever visit hospitals and carry flowers and fruits to the sick. Even if you have no friends or acquaintances who are sick in hospitals, you will find at most hospitals some friendless person who would enjoy a few flowers, some fruit, or a pleasant smile.
Select a hospital and carry a bunch of flowers there and tell the superintendent to give it to some person whom she thinks needs a little cheering.
Get in the habit of remembering the fellow who is less fortunate than you.

COLORED AUTHORS
In the year 1824, at Villiers, France there was born a man whose name will never be forgotten—he was the great author, Alexander Dumas.
His books are read all over the world by almost everyone, but there are still only a few people who know that he was of Negro blood.
One of his best works, "The Three Musketeers," was shown in motion pictures a few months ago.
Dumas is not the only Negro author we can boast of. Pushkin, a Negro, is one of Russia's most noted authors. Among his works are, "Poltava," and "The Fountain of Bakchisoraj."
The famous book, "The Clemenceau Case," was written by the son of Alexander Dumas.
Phyllis Wheatley was made memorable by her poems. The same applies to Paul Lawrence Dunbar.
Jose Maria Heredia, born in Santiago in 1803, is worth mentioning for his poems.
Professor Kelly Miller has written a well known book about the Negro and W. E. B. DuBois has written a book called "Darkwater."
We all have heard of "Up from Slavery" by Booker T. Washington.
The Negro race has as good authors as has the white race.
LETTERS FROM OUR LITTLE
FRIENDS
Dear Editor: I am in Virginia on my vacation. I am ten years old. This is the first time I have been on a farm and seen cows milked, and gathered eggs. There are pigs and rabbits here. We drink well water. We lower a bucket into the well and another bucket on the other end of the chain comes up full of water. There are frogs in the well and it is said that they keep the well clean. The water tastes different from the water at home. It is always nice and cold. It even has a smell to it. It smells nice and clean and fresh. There are plenty of vegetables and fruit trees and flowers. The fields are full of golden rods now. I wish you could be here instead of in your hot office. I hope you like my letter.
Dear Editor: I have been reading the "Children's Page" for over five months I guess. I was going to send in a drawing of you, but my baby sister tore it up. I'm going to send you a picture soon. It's not funny like the one in the paper Saturday. I hope you will like it. My baby sister sends love. I read the Negro Jingles to her.
EDMONIA A. LEWIS (Age 11)
Dear Editor: Just a line to say hello. Are you going on a vacation this summer? I am. Mother and my stepfather are going to Newark with the Elks. I intend to write to you about some of the things I will see. Don't throw this letter in the fire.
CHARLES M. PETERS (Age 13)
(Dear Charles: I will not get a vacation this year. I hope you will enjoy yours. Write to us when you go away.—Ed.)
Dear Editor: I want to tell you how much I appreciated the tickets I won as "Honor Child." I went to the Dunbar Theater and the pictures were fine. I took my sister with me and we certainly did enjoy the treat. I have watched the Page and I have noticed that none of the "Honor Children" or "Specials" seem to write and thank you for the tickets. We should thank you even if you did not give us the tickets for you give us fun by putting such clever puzzles on the Page. I like everything every week and you can trust me to be a loyal, true blue, one hundred per cent Tribunite.
*ANNIE MAE LUCAS (Age ?)
(Dear Annie: Thanks for your appreciation. Some of the prize winners send in letters of appreciation—and most of them are so full of praise for the Page that we are modest about publishing them.—Ed.)
Dear Editor: I guess you have almost forgotten me, it has been such a long time since I wrote, but it was not because I wasn't keeping up with the "Children's Page." I have been attending summer school at Dunbar and it closes Friday, August 11th.
ALEASE WOODS (13 yrs.)
Dear Editor: I am sending the answers to puzzles for this week. I hope that they are all correct. I am a reader of "The Children's Page" and would like to win a portion of the ten dollars which is to be awarded to the readers of this page. I have been enjoying reading this page for about three months. Two of my brothers are delivery boys of your paper and have been sending it to my father for this length of time. You will perhaps notice that I do not live in your city. Is it possible for me to receive money instead of theatre tickets as an award?
MARY J. PHILLIPS (Age 11)

Dear Editor: I have not written to the Page for quite a while, but I am still a true member. I am sending in a picture of what I think you look like. I hope some day to see how much you look like my picture. Now I say good-bye.
NEGROES AND THE COLORED PEOPLES
The Negroes of the United States are held in contempt by other races of colored peoples. It is human nature, perhaps, to do so. We are not yet a century removed from slavery, we have no native homeland, we have no government and we have no traditions mildewed with age.
We are diamonds in the rough. A new tribe of people. We are the brunt of a better situated and a longer freed people. But like the student Prof. Kelly Miller so frequently tells of "we's a-climbing."
We must begin looking upon ourselves as a real, a very real and necessary part of the universe. We must study, study, study and increase our value, then rate ourselves and demand due consideration in proportion to our valuation.
We must learn about ourselves from the days of the pharaohs down to the World War. We must study the lives of the colored peoples, learn their histories, foster intercourse with them, and help them and be helped by them. The white races, although of different nations, ally themselves together, not because they love each other, but because they are white. Being white means everything to them.
It is just a matter of time when the brown and black peoples of Asia, the blacks of Africa and Australia, the brown and black peoples of the South Sea islands, the yellow peoples of Asia and Europe, the black, brown, and yellow peoples of South America will find their value one to other.
This is not idle fancy nor is it vain dreaming. It is a thought today on which tomorrow will be a reality.
We expect at a very early date to publish facts concerning the colored peoples of the world. They are our brothers; their successes are our successes and their failures are our failures. Learn all you can about your race, get all the general knowledge you can, learn of the colored peoples of the world, have pride in yourself and in your race. Above all prepare yourselves.
PAGE A FEW CITATIONS MENTIONED IN THE DISPATCHES
Perhaps we live too much to ourselves as Negroes—American Negroes. There are millions of other Negroes in the world with whom we must join powers and of whom we must learn more about. Last week we promised to present from time to time the affairs of other peoples of the darker races. This week we are publishing some facts of some foreign Negroes who won signal honors in the World War. These men were French subjects, and France has made several demonstrations in their honor. It is hardly likely that a black French soldier in his uniform would be lynched to a flagpole with the national flag torn to shreds and used as a rope. A few citations follow:
5th Battalion of Senegalese Trailleurs. This battalion is considered a fine fighting unit, tenacious in defence and eager in attack. Under the energetic command of Major Durand, in July, 1916, on the Somme, took the German positions to the south of the village of Dompierre, co-operated in the capture of the village of Assevillers and resisted violent counter-attacks in the region of Belloy-en-Santerre. In March, 1917, it took a valiant part in the attack on the Hindenburg Line in the region of Vauxaillon, then from July to October endured very severe fighting on the Chemin-des-Dames (Hurtebise Monument). From September 28th to October 10th, 1918, after having co-operated in the relief of a big town on the front, threw itself in the pusuit of the enemy's rearguards, which it dispersed, and seized an important bridge-head, which it kept in spite of a most violent shelling and of seven furious counter-attacks. On October 19th, under a murderous fire, advanced more than a kilometre, obtained a footing in the Hunding Stellung, seized a 77 gun and contributed in the capture of 500 prisoners. (Despatch of November 28th, 1918.—Journal of February 19th, 1910). 32d Battalion of Senegalese Trailleurs
On July 18, 1918, vigorously led by its chief, Major Teuliere, it advanced under the woods to the assault of the enemy's positions with admirable resolution and dash. It was greeted by a violent fire of machine-guns, of minenwerfer and of heavy artillery, stopped to rush forward, electrified by its officers pushing forward heroically toward the enemy in spite of severe losses. Obtained a footing in the enemy's positions and after a hand-to-hand fight in which officers and men gave proof of a dash and tenacity beyond all praise, dislodged the enemy, seizing nine heavy guns, eight minenwerfer, sixty machine-guns, numerous stores of ammunition and material. Thus, they realized an advance of more than 1200 metres in the woods and maintained its new lines in spite of the counter-attacks of the enemy. (Despatch of August 22, 1918. Journal of December 20, 1918.)
54th Battalion of Senegalese Tirailleurs
This is a fine battalion which showed the greatest endurance and energy, working without truce during forty-five days under the bombardment, to organize the position in front of which it had stopped the preceding enemy offensive. From the 15th to the 18th of July, 1918, under the command of Major Velle, in spite of its fatigue, fought heroically, with unshakable tenacity and giving the example of the greatest spirit of self-sacrifice against an enemy superior in numbers, which it stopped dead on the positions entrusted to it, without yielding the slightest bit, inflicting on the enemy considerable losses. (Despatch of November 22, 1918. Journal of February 15, 1919).
CALVIN FAIRBANKS
In "A New Negro for a New Century" this lone statement tells a most eloquent story.
"Calvin Fairbanks spent seventeen years and four months in the Kentucky penitentiary for the glorious crime of 'Nigger Stealing.' During the time, he is said to have received thirty-five thousand stripes on his bared body."
We are sorry the authors of this book give no further history of this hero. Further reference to the life of this man will be greatly appreciated.
This story, as I said above, is eloquent. Stories of life in America are apt to ever be found eloquent if it relates to the Negro.

MY FIRST VACATION
Pa was bubbling o'er with mirth
For auntie sent information
That she was lonesome, being alone
And for us to spend our vacation
With her some distance out of town
We'd accept the invitation.
Said pa to ma, "Why right away
We'll send sis our acceptance."
Then we began to have day dreams
Without any enervation;
We then began to pack our trunks
Minus all hesitation;
And pa who always is so glum
Was full of conversation.
At last we'd packed our trunks jam
full,
And we liked our occupation:
And sis she worked so hard o'er hers
She suffered nerve prostration:
And pa he brought her to herself
By giving her hot libation.
We started out upon our trip
To that old country station
And the scenery along the road
Filled us with fascination.
So sis right out 'fore ma and pa
Started a real flirtation.
At last we reached with very much joy
Our longed for destination—
And pa he sudd'nly yells out,
"I've got an inspiration.
The older folks met and there began
A lot of osculation,
And I stole off from 'mong the bunch
And starts an exploration—
To find out how the bees would sting—
And I got plenty information.
My stealing away, so I've been told
Caused lots of animation:
A series of cries that let them know My need of stimulation.
Now if any of you should chance to go Away on a vacation.
And if a hive of bees is owned
By the host who's your relation,
Don't think that meddling with those
bees Will cause you exultation But just the reverse for I am sure 'Twill be your ruination.
QUESTION BOX
Mr. Frazier: Please give me some information concerning Manassas Industrial School—E. K. B.
E. K. B. —Manassas Industrial School was founded in 1892 through the efforts of Jennie Dean, a daughter of ex-slaves of the State, who spent her life in domestic service, using odd moments for-soliciting funds. It has a strong board of local and Northern people. Elementary and secondary work is carried on there. There are night classes for those who work during the day. The industrial work embraces carpentry, blacksmithing, and shoe repairing for the boys. The girls have instructions in sewing, cooking, and laundry work. After two years they specialize in one of the household industries or teacher-training. Estimated value of the land, over $65,000; estimated value of buildings over $64,000; estimated value of movable equipment, over $12,300.
Mr. Frazier: I have tried to secure a copy of Mr. Murray's book on sculpture which you refer to so often. Where can I secure a copy and what is the price?—M. E. M.
M. E. M—Mr. F. H. M. Murray's "Emancipation and the Freed in American Sculpture" can be secured from the author at 920 U St., N. W. Price $1.50.
What do You Think About This?
All the seats were taken in a Seventh Street car. One white man was standing. A white woman got on the car. There was no place for her to to sit so she had to stand. The white man told a Negro youth to get up and give the woman his seat. The youth started to do so and then changed his mind and retained his seat. He turned to the white man and asked this question:
"If my mother got on a crowded car would you give her your seat?"
The man turned red, the youth turned his head, the car turned into U Street and all was quiet.
What do you think of the youth's action?
Write a letter and express your idea about this incident. Parents and children are invited to write. Children must give their ages, grown folks must place the letter G. F. behind their names.

MOTON'S RECOMMENDATIONS
In the annual address delivered before the National Negro Business League, at Norfolk, Va., Wednesday evening, Robert Russa Moton, President, made five recommendations, without even suggesting how they were to be executed. The recommendations were excellelnt: the first, a business bureau thru which business enterprises could be helped financially; second, trade boosting campaigns; third, conducting short courses in business practice for colored business men; fourth, the employing of a secretary or director of some kind to give his time to building up local leagues, and fifth, establishing of a series of scholarships.
For twenty-two years the National Negro Business League has been headed by the principals of Tuskegee Institute, who are merely educators; and for twenty-two years these educa-

(Continued from page 1)
From Senator Lodge's office, the committee called on Senator McCormick of Illinois and next Senator Shortridge of California. Senator Shortridge stated that he expected to have the bill taken up early in September and that he was heartily in favor of it.
The committee called on Chairman Adams of the Republican National Committee. Mr. Adams stated that he favored the bill and would all he could for its passage. He also stated that the administration would probably lift the bars on the appointing of Negroes to office in the South.
The committee then went to the White House. After arriving there, they discovered it was difficult to obtain the desired time with the president, but after the committee made it known that they would either have a talk with the president or would refuse to see him at all, they were granted their wishes. Mr. Nelson of the Wilmington Advocate was the spokesman; he told of the desires of the Negro for anti-lynching legislation. The President stated that he favored the present bill and would do what he could to have it passed.
The convention re-convened at two o'clock and proceeded to clear up all unfinished business. A complete program was outlined for the annual meeting to be held in February at Nashville, Tenn. The convention then adjourned. The two day session was one of the most successful in the history of the organization.

FINANCE CORPORATION MAKING GREAT PROGRESS
(Continued from page 1) among the white people do not hesitate to tell us that our only salvation and our destiny in the business world depend upon co-operative effort among the Negroes themselves. If we can succeed in convincing our representative Negro men and women as individuals, our several fraternal organization, and even our various church organizations, of the virtue of such a movement as this and get their unstinted support and united effort, we would soon put-over the biggest program ever attempted by our group, and there is no reason why this should not be done." Former Congressman, Allan Benny,

tors have been attending meetings and making excellent recommendations; and for twenty-two years they have gone home and forgotten the recommendations, just as they will likely do this year, for as educators they deal in theory and practical business is foreign to them.
The president and secretary of the Business League should be business men. The principals of Tuskegee because of their lack of knowledge of practical business have proven .that they do not produce the best results, leading The League. Tuskegee does not even have a commercial course. Might as well have a blacksmith as president of a doctors' association or a fisherman as head of a bankers' association as to continue having the principals of Tuskegee, as presidents of the Business League.
of New Jersey, who is president of the underwriting organization which has charge of the sale of the securities of the Allied Industrial Finance Corporation, also spoke at the meeting.

WASHINGTON FAMILY BAKERY EXPANDING
Extensive remodeling has been completed at the Washington Family Bakery, 1321 U Street, Northwest. Mr. Fullwood, the proprietor, opened here about four months ago and his trade has expanded to such an extent that he has had to remove the hall partition to make more rqom for his fast expanding restaurant. business. This gives room for five more sanitary tables which means more equipment and more help. He also has a store on P Street near 14th.
Mr. W. B. Wade, formerly of the "Ideal Lunch" will enter upon the duties of "Chef" at the Washington Family Bakery, Sunday. His many friends will appreciate seeing him back in harness.
The flat price of forty cents for lunch has attracted a large patronage to the U Street store, where lunches are served on week days, from 5 a.m. to 1 a.m., and regular dinners on Sundays.
The P Street store, under the management of Mr. Blair opened last fall and has made rapid progress. Having built up a large trade for bread and fine pastries, Mr. Blair felt that an ice cream plant would increase the service he desired to render his patrons; and therefore, began making real home made ice-cream, which he Supplies direct to homes, churches and entertainments.
The Washington Family Bakery is entering upon its third year in business and from a beginning with a capital of $400.00 it has grown to its present proportions of two stores, with increasing business at each of them.
The Washington Family Bakery is expanding rapidly and will continue to do so as fast as efficient help can be obtained.
