PUT THROUGH THIRD DEGREE
Although Not Guilty, State Will Not Pay Him For Time Lost
After narrowly escaping being lynched and spending sixteen months in various jails of Maryland, on the false charge of murdering Mrs. Weber, near White Station, on the W. B. & A. Railway, in May 1921, "Carolina Joe" Keller, was released by the Maryland authorities last Friday night and placed upon a South-bound train Saturday morning for his home in Summerville, S. C.
Mrs.Weber a young white woman, was found murdered with the ring finger cut off, on the right of way of the W. B. & A., near White Station, Md. The authorities picked up Joseph Keller, a 17 year old colored boy from South Carolina, who was seeking work in that neighborhood. He was carried to Mt. Ranier and given a preliminary hearing before Justice of Peace Robert Joyce and bound over for the grand jury. In the meantime some of the officials of the N A A. C. P. learned of Joseph's plight and communicated with the local branch here in Washington.
Attorney James E. Cobb, was placed in charge of the case and attended the hearing at Mt. Ranier, at which time a lynching was narrowly averted. The local branch, thru the secretary, Shelby J. Davidson, has kept in constant touch with the case. Every clue was run down and the States' Attorney, J. Wilson Ryon, asked Justice Joyce, Friday night, to release Keller for lack of evidence to convict him. He said: "We have not the evidence sufficient to put this man on trial for his life. We do not want to have it said that we did something wrong to a man whom we feel in our hearts is innocent. I, therefore, be lie it is my duty to ask you to release Joseph Keller, and I believe it is your duty to release him." Justice Joyce said: "Since the States' Attorney is unable to procure sufficient evidence to convict this man and asks for his release, if the sheriff has nothing to say to the contrary, there is nothing left for me to do but release him." Thus ended sixteen months of "watchful waiting" by Joseph Keller.
Secretary Davidson and Attorney Cobb had been informed that the Maryland authorities would release "Carolina Joe" Friday night, if they would see that he returned home. Both of them were at the Justice's Court Friday night and brought Joseph to Washington, where they provided a bed for him and his brother Frank, who arrived in the city that afternoon, to escort his brother home. The N. A. A. C. P., thru Mr. Davidson, defrayed the expenses of Joseph to his home in Summerville, S. C.
Young Keller was given the "third degree" on several occasions during his incarceration in Maryland. He said that on one occasion the officials put a rope around his neck and strung him up, endeavoring to make him confess to murdering Mrs. Weber. Keller said he had a hard time and he thought his time had come them.
Justice Joyce in releasing Joseph, said that he felt that he had suffered enough. Keller spent sixteen months in jail in Maryland for which he will not receive a penny, altho he was absolutely innocent of the charge.

ATTY. JONES MAY BE APPOINTED BY PRES. HARDING
Friends Making Strong Fight To Get Him on the Rent Commission
It has been announced in unofficial sources that the nominations to the District Rent Commission will soon be sent to the Senate by President Harding. It is generally expected that the President will send in the name of Attorney Thomas L. Jones as a member of this commission.
Atty. Jones's name was first suggested by the Colored Bar Association and almost immediately he was endorsed by the white Bar Association being the first time that the white association has endorsed the candidacy of a colored man, for this commission. Several petitions were circulated in behalf of Mr. Jones and among the names on some of them were Judge Hardison, Judge Sellers, Judge O'Toole and many other people prominent in the business and professional world of this city. Atty. Jones has the backing of the colored people here. He is one of the best known lawyers practicing in the city and has been practicing in the courts here for over 30 years, during which time he has built up a large and lucrative practice. The rent commission is composed of five men and was created by an act of Congress and passes on all questions pertaining to fair rentals on property in the District.
CHURCH CASE AGAIN IN COURT
The case of the First Baptist Church vs. some of its deposed members has been brought back into court. This time Attorney Royal A. Hughes acting for Archibald S. Pinkett, et al., Plaintiffs, secured the issuance of a rule from Justice Stafford in Equity Court, against James L. Pinn, et al., Defendants, to show cause why they should not be adjudged in contempt of court for alleged failure to comply with the decree of the court passed on June 30, 1922. The writ is returnable on the first Friday after two days service of the rule.
Attorney Chas. S. Hill, lawyer for the defendants, is out of the city this week attending the B. M. C., in Cleveland, Ohio, but is expected back early next week. Therefore, it is expected that the matter will come up for a hearing next Friday, Sept., 22.
The Tribune has the largest circulation in the District of all the colored papers. An advertisement in it reaches the people, for it goes into one out of every three homes in Washington.
"JAY BEE" RESIGNS
J. B. Davidson ("Jay Bee") has resigned as manager of the Howard Theater. He is now actively engaged in editing "Tatler Bunk," his snappy little weekly. Mr. Walter A. Pinchback is his successor.
A letter was found addressed to Mrs. Weber, it is alleged, from an ex-soldier friend, asking her to come to meet him at the spot where the body was found. However he has not been arrested.
WOMAN 74 YEARS OLD ARRESTED FOR VAGRANCY
Wave of Indignation Sweeps Court as she Tells Her Story
An aged woman of 74 years was arrested the fist part of this week by an officer attached to No. 6 precinct on a charge of vagrancy and lodged in jail under a real estate bond. When the case was called before Judge Hardison in police court, and after arguments by Atty. Thos. L. Jones, the woman's attorney, the case was dismissed.
The aged woman gave her name as Fannie Taylor and stated that she lived in southeast. Because of a deformity of one of her feet, she used a crutch and one of her hands appeared as if it was partially paralyzed. Her clothes were torn and she presented a pitiful picture. She told Judge Hardison that selling papers was her only means of support. It was while she was selling her papers that she was arrested.
This was the second time that the old lady has been arrested. The first time was about a month ago. The case was dismissed as the charge against her then was selling on the street. The last time she was arrested, she was selling papers in front of the Patent Office Building.
At the time of the trial, the entire court looked on in a spirit of indignation that was evident to every one present.
CATHOLICS PLAN FOR FIELD MASS
Sunday, September 24th will be one of the big days for the Colored population of Washington, when the First Annual Field Mass will be celebrated on the campus of the Church of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, 15th and Morris Road, Southeast (Anacostia, D. C.). The Mass will be celebrated at 10:30 A.M.
Invitations have been extended each of the local organizations of colored people, both Catholic and non-Catholic Posts of the American Legion, Boy Scout Troops, the various organizations that have auxiliaries of women and all societies whose membership are made up of colored people of the city. Many societies have already signified their intention of assembling in uniform. In this connection, societies and fraternal organizations are invited to communicate with Francis A. McCann, Secretary, 1314 Mass., Ave., N.W.
It is desired to have every colored man, woman and child in the city attend this Mass. It is expected fully ten thousand people will be present on this occasion, which is unique among colored people of the city. This will be the first time in the history of the city of Washington that the colored population have assembled in the open to hold a monster Religious service of this kind. Every man, woman and child, regardless of his religious beliefs is invited to attend this Mass, which is the principle service of the Roman Catholic Church.
Reverend Franz M. W. Schneesweiss Rector of the Church will sing the Mass. The choir music of the Mass will be sung by the St. Cyprian's Choral society and the Mixed choir of the Church.
A novel feature of the Mass will be the fact that the platform, on which the Altar will be erected, will be the boxing ring, kindly loaned by the Knights of Columbus of Walter Reed Hospital. The ring, which has been one of the principal means of entertaining the soldiers, will be converted into a sanctuary for this occa-
HANDLING OF ANTI-LYNCHING BILL SHOWS HOW HYPOCRITICAL REPUBLICAN LEADRS ARE
When Bill Came Up Last Week Not a Republican Championed it
LONE DEMOCRAT BLOCKED IT
All the So-called Friends of
the Bill Failed to Speak
Out
The Dyer anti-lynching bill cannot be passed at this session of Congress and will fail at the short session this winter.
When it came up in the Senate last week, Senator Fletcher, of Florida, objected to its coming before the Senate at that hour and not a single Republican asked that it be considered then as the order of the calendar called for.
This bill passed the House nearly a year ago. After lying in the Senate Committee for months, it was finally reported out and came up last week for the first time since it was reported to the Senate.
If the Dyer bill fails to pass during the short session ending next March 4th, it will automatically die with the ending of the 67th Congress.
It is understood that Chief Justice Taft framed a provision giving the Government authority to carry to the Federal courts, all crime cases in which aliens are the victims, assuring jurisdiction in such cases over State authorities and courts, as recommended by President Harding in his latest message to Congress on the strike situation. This provision will have the opposition of all the States' rights advocates.
The Dyer Bill has no champion in the Senate, Senators Lodge, Shortridge and McCormick notwithstanding, therefore, there is no one to take up the procedure necessary to put it over, notwithstanding there are far more Republicans than Democrats in the Senate.
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, up to the eve of his renomination, promised that it would pass.
The National Association, through James Weldon Johnson, has sent out a ton of releases to the various papers saying that the Dyer bill will pass the Senate. When it came up on the Calendar last week, the Association had no one there to take up the regular legislative procedure so one lone man, Senator Fletcher, from Florida, sent it on its way to the Indian's Happy Hunting Ground.
The colored people all over this country have been worked up to a high pitch by the N. A. A. C. P., and other organizations on the passage of the Dyer bill, but they will realize that legislation in this country is by white men for white men who pay off.
The secret of getting legislation thru Congress hinges on how much you can pay to get it thru. Take the campaign of 1920. How much money did the Negroes of this country contribute to the Republican campaign fund? One Negro contributed $10, 000 and failed to get an appointment.
sion. The Altar, which will be the central feature of the Mass, will be beautifully decorated by the Sisters and the ladies of the parish. Great enthusiasm has already been in evidence and every effort will be made to make the affair impressive. The vast crowd will sing the Star Spangled Banner at the end of the Mass.

HOWARD-LINCOLN FOOTBALL GAME PLAYED HERE THANKSGIVING
Contest to be Played at the American League Park in the Morning
It has been officially announced by Howard University authorities that the Howard-Lincoln football "classic" will be played at American League park at 10:30 o'clock Thanksgiving morning, November 30th. Due to the fact that Howard is able to guarantee the management of the American League park only one game every two years while Georgetown and George Washington Universities can assure six or more games annually—the latter universities are given the preference of using the park Thanksgiving afternoon. The shift in the playing time of the game is expected to meet with general approval locally and will not seriously inconvenience or effect the visiting attendance. The recent addition of an upper tier to the left field pavilion and the proposed erection of temporary seats on the south side of the field will afford over 20,000 spectators full opportunity of seeing every movement of the players.
WALTER PINCHBACK IS NEW MANAGER OF HOWARD THEATRE
The regular patrons of the Howard Theatre as well as the public were agreeably surprised Monday night to note that Mr. Walter Pinchback was holding the managerial reigns at this popular theater. Mr. Pinchback's election has met with widespread approval among theater goers of the city.
The Howard's management intends to bring all the big road shows obtainable to this playhouse and it is expected that the Howard will again re-establish itself among theater goers as one of the most popular theaters in Washington.

CAPT. EDWARD
YORK CHOSEN
OVER MANY
Has Been Stationed at Howard University for Nearly Two Years
25 YEARS IN THE U. S. ARMY
Has Made Brilliant [Record During His Years of Service
The War Department announced Thursday, the appointment of Warrant Officer Edward L. Work, now on duty at Howard University to have charge of the military training of the high school cadets in the colored schools. He will have the title of Assistant Professor of Military Tactics, it being explained that only commissioned officers carry the title of full Professor.
Major Milton T. Dean, of Howard University resigned the position at the close of school in June, effective June 30th. Since then a number have applied for the appointment. Among those who applied were Lt. Col. Benj. O. Davis, now at Tuskegee, who had the endorsement of some of the school officials; Capt. A. C. Davis; Capt. Chas. E. Lane; Capt. S. H. Epps; Lt. B. D. Boyd; Capt. C. C. Johnson, of the Verterans Bureau; Lt. Fred Slade; Warrant Officer Marshbanks, now in the Phillipines and Warrant Officer Sanders, also in the Phillipines. The War Department held that it did not care to recall the reserve officers, as would be the case with all of them save the last mentioned, therefore, Warrant Officer York, stationed at Howard University was the logical one and therefore received the appointment.
This year all of the boys attending the high schools will be under the instruction of the military Professor and he will be given an assistant for each five hundred boys in the high schools.
A band of forty pieces is being provided for and the instruments are on their way so that the band can be organized at the earliest moment.
25 Years in Service
Warrant Officer Edward York entered the service during the Spanish American War in 1898 and served in Troop "A" 9th Cavalry until October 15th, 1917, on which date he was commissioned as Captain U. S. Army.
He advanced from Private to the highest grade that can be held in a troop of Cavalry. He served three tours of foreign service in the Philippine Islands. Served on the Mexican border and was under fire of Mexican troops. Organized and commanded a company of Infantry and was wounded in action in France during the late World war.
He is a graduate of the mounted service school for Cavalry at Fort Riley, Kansas; Graduate of Officers training school for Cavalry at Manila, P. I., 1917; Graduate of Officers training school for Infantry at Fort Des Moines, Iowa, 1917. Commissioned Captain of Infantry, U. S. Army, Oct. 15th, 1917. Recommissioned Captain of Infantry, U. S. R., Dec. 16th, 1919 which commission he now holds. Appointed Warrant Officer U. S. A. Dec. 22nd, 1920. He has been on R. O. T. C. duty at Howard University, Wasington, D. C., since Oct. 1st, 1919.
Received special mention from First Corps School at Gondrecourt, France August 1917. He is an Expert rifleman, Expert Pistol shot and Expert swordsman. He received ten (10) discharges from the United States Army, all with Character "Excellent" and is now in his twenty-fifth year of continuous service, U. S. Army
of a saved democracy.
It is interesting to note that Prof. Miller rose above sentiment and gives us this observation: "But I have never at any time or place, by utterance or inference expressed belief in the principle of separate schools, in the North or in the South. Neither Christianity or democracy can contemplate the separation. The school is much more ethical than the church, and much more democratic than the state. When our oldest university suggests discrimination against students on account of race, a hue and cry is raised from all over the nation. But both church and state make race distinction with impunity. The school is the one place which should be kept free from all form of prejudice . . . I might stop here to say, in passing, that so far as the Negro is concerned, public schools in the proper sense of the term do not exist anywhere in the United States. The so-called mixed schools are white schools which the Negro pupil is permitted to attend as a tolerated recipient, but the Negro is not a co-equal factor or even a proportional factor in contributing to desired influence and power. There are one and a half million Negroes in the North whose children are in touch with the best school facilities and advantages which our civilization affords. Who is bold enough to say that they impart to the Negro child all that can be desired?"

THE MESSENGER
PROF. KELLY MILLER
MARCUS GARVEY
To The Editor of
The Washington Tribune:
Apparently offences are a part of the world's program, but woe to the one man thru whom they come, says the Prince of Peace. In this particular case of the Messenger magazine in misinterpreting the attitude of Prof. Kelly Miller to be in favor of separate schools for Negroes, we are to note the mildness of the woe in the closing paragraph of Prof. Miller's reply:
"In the article in question I merely attention to relativity of advantages and disadvantages which no educator can fail to notice. He that hath eyes to see let him see."
It will be well for public speakers and writers to pursue a closer line of investigation as to the truth of their information before passing adverse judgment, or launching an attack upon any accredited and widely recognized leader of the race, as there is a growing feelig of unwillingness on the part of the reading public to readily forgive for what it considers a grave offence at this time, when all the forces need to be concentrated in securing for the Negro the benefits

Should one infer from the above statement that in spite of the Negro's contribution, by involuntary and voluntary services, to making America great, and the Negro's frequent declarations of his citizenship and his peevishness when his relationship to the republic is questioned, that the American white people by their deeds conduct the government upon the principle that this is a white man's country and government? The almost hopelessness of the situation and that which calls for Faith in the Power which makes for Righteousness, is that this race discrimination is encouraged and practiced by the two most powerful agencies in the country—church and state.
Is Mr. Garvey mistaken when he says that every other white man cherishes the K. K. k. spirit ¶ Mr. Garvey evidently believes that the Negro would receive world recognition as a man sooner thru a Negro centralized government rather than thru the winning of full American citizenship. As much as we may differ with Mr. Garvey in this particular let us take seriously the words of Prof. John Erskine, of Columbia University in his "Democracy and Ideals": "A genuine purpose implies the will to realize that purpose. We shall always be individualists,let us hope; we shall always be ready to stand for the ideal which to the best of our knowledge is the proper answer to our

needs; we shall be true to our ideal even the public opinion disagrees with us. It is only in the brutal state of nature that all animals of the same kind conform to one program of conduct; when the mnid is free there will be differences of opinion and increasing differences of character, and there will be occasional martyrs." Mr. Garvey by his actions has demonstrated his willingness to abide by the consequences and sustain the responsibilities for that which he preaches, and for that he ought to be commended even tho we withhold our condemnation from those whose actions do not square with their preaching
The Afro-Americans and the country might be better by the migration of Mr. Garvey and his followers on their Pilgrim journey, therby avoiding any further entangling alliances with the K. K. K. and I. W. W. the cost of which will be borne largely by the Negro, and leaving a history making element here to work out a permanent salvation in an ideal democracy. (Rev.) THOMAS E. MONTOUTH.

"SILENT CALL"
TAKEN FROM
SATURDAY EVENING POST
STORY
STORY
Half-dog, half-wolf, Strongheart presents one of the most unusual characters the screen has seen in H. O. Davis' presentation of "The Silent Call," the Laurence Trimble-Jane Murfin production, released through Associated First National Pictures, Inc., which comes to the Dunbar Theatre next week, for four days, Mon., Tues., Wed., Thurs., Sept., 18, 19, 20, 21.
Because of this dual nature the animal is in constant conflict with the forces of civilization and the wilderness. The development of this mixed strain is worked out in a plot that teems with action and embraces a love story of the far West.
Of equal importance with the story is the acting of Strongheart, the Belgian police dog, who was imported to this country by Miss Murfin to play the leading role of Flash. Never before has the screen seen an animal that can take a role in a film drama without constant miscues and prompting; but the producers promise that this canine's intelligence is equal to every contingency, so that the hand of the director is never seen in evidence.
Laurence Trimble directed the picture and Miss Murfin did the adaptation from Hal. G. Evarts "The Cross Pull" which was first published in the Saturday Evening Post.
The capable supporting cast includes John Bowers, Kathtryn McGuire, William J. Dyer, James Mason, Nelson McDowell, E. J. Brady and Robert Bolder.

Students' Corner
SINGING
Vocal Hygiene. Suggestions. Every voice can be improved and strengthened by proper treatment, but artistic success is the portion of those only, who possess originally fine voices, musical disposition, and perfect health. Teachers should distinguish between pupils who study singing as a beautiful accomplishment and such as desire to become professional singers. It is a common belief that he who has an expansive chest and can scream lustily, possesses the necessary qualifications for becoming a good singer. This belief, however, has no substantial support in fact, for it is not the lungs that sing. Another popular fallacy is the belief that a large throat is better adapted to singing than a narrow one. He whose pharynx is disproportioned to his body, does not sing, but screams. The tone is formed in the throat at the glottis and modulated by the larynx, the uvula, the veil of the palate, the tongue, the teeth, and the lips.
An elevated chest and power to scream are not of themselves, qualifications sufficient to insure success in singing, though accompanied by musical talent. It is indispensable that all the organs of the voice should be perfectly proportioned and in healthy condition. Temporary inflammation may be removed by carefully applied remedies. Chronic inflammation is an insurmountable obstacle. If there exists no serious impediments, the voice is fine, and the pupil musical, then a good success can be quite safely predicted. To those who have broken or otherwise seriously impaired voices by too long continued or forced singing, or by false method, there must be absolute and long repose from vocal practice. If trouble continues, seek a specialist.
As to the kinds of food which temporarily impair the full lustre of the voice, it is a good rule to observe that whatever affects the general health, affects immediately the voice. Anything which lessens temporarily the natural moisture of the throat and tongue, or disturbs the normal conditions of the mucus membrane, is injurious. Loss of sleep will often deprive the voice of its whole vigor. Much talking or loud laughing directly before singing is to be avoided. After a full meal, wait two to three hours before singing. Observe temperance in all things.
An important item in the equipment of a singer is the ability to think songs correctly as to pitch, rhythm, tone-quality, style and diction. For this, the learner should master the rudiments, learn much good music and listen frequently and appreciatively to competent musical performance as well as take the best instruction he can obtain. The next item is a voice developed as far as opportunity will allow; a voice made free and fluent by intelligent, persistent practice. No singing is good if it is not in time and tune. To be a singer, therefore, one must be sensitive to rhythm, and must possess an ear for music. For singing, voice culture is of no use to one who cannot think in musical phrase. Until one knows the scale and can sing easy melodies with certainty, his proper work as a pupil in singing is in the rudiments of music, not in the development of the vocal organs.
Maintain a perfectly erect but easy position of the body while singing. Open the mouth naturally but freely. In taking breath, make as little noise as possible, do it quickly and without any change in the position of the mouth. Take breath no more frequently than is necessary. Attack the tone with precision and avoid striking below the true sound and sliding up to it. Strive for breadth, and volume, not power. From vowels with great care and accuracy. Don't sing too high, and' too loud. Never sing with an instrument out of tune. Singers should not expose themselves to cold, damp air immediately after singing.

HUBBARD STAR of N. A. A. U. MEET, EARL JOHNSON WINS By winning one junior and two senior events in the N. A. A. U. Meet, held at Newark, N. J., last Friday and Saturday, Dehort Hubbard of Cincinnati, Ohio, a University of Michigan student, proved to be the outstanding star of the meet.

They finished in the order named, the winner leaped 24 ft. 5.1/8 inches; Gourdin 23 ft. 11 3/4 inches; and Butler 23 ft 7 5/8 inches. Hubbard had smashed the junior broad jump record the day before by jumping 24 ft. 3 1/2 inches, 1 foot and $2\frac{1}{2}$ inches over the previous mark. The hop, skip and jump event also went to the Cincinnati star.
Earl Johnson, last year's winner of the National 5 mile run duplicated his 1921 victory by defeating a fast field including Ritola, Rathburn and Hennigan, all white, doing the distance in 25 min. 33 sec.

Arlington Athletics Defeat All Stars
The Arlington Athletics, trounced the Virginia All-Stars, in a well played game Saturday on the Star's field in Alexandria by the score of 7 to 3.
Rufus Jones of the Athletics, pulled the game out of the fire in the third when he went in the air to spear two hard liners which were labled for two sacks or more; the timely batting of Minor and Brooks were the factors for the Athletics, and the fielding of the entire team was flawless especially in the pinches.
Batteries: Athletics, Lyons and A. Pollard, Va. All-Stars, Lloyd, Jones and Beckham.
Score: Athletics. 7. Va. All-Stars. 3.

MAKES STATEMENT
To the Editor of the Tribune:
To the Editor of the Tribune:
Kindly allow me a small space on your sport page for the following:
I am desirous of informing the public in general that I do not wish to be held responsible for the indifference shown by members of the Post Office baseball club throughout the second series of the Departmental League.
I resigned as captain of the club at the beginning of the second series for the express purpose of allowing some other member a chance of bringing the club up to where it belonged in the standing with the material of which the club was made
(Signed) HARRY V. PLUMMER
JUNIOR SERIES
Despite the many handicaps, the Junior Series is expected to come to a successful close next Sunday. The junior teams have had to play under very adverse circumstances. Many managers became discouraged as well as many of the players, but it is expected that seven teams out of the eight that started will complete the schedule. The only team dropping out being the Eastern Giants, who for some unknown reason, failed to inform the promoters as to why they refused to continue.
Notwithstanding the many perplexing problems that the juvenile managers have had to deal with, many of them have shown great courage and when the series is over, every one of them will have gained valuable experience.
A few more games remain to be played; a complete schedule of these games appears in another column of this paper. It is hoped by this paper that the series this year will pave the way for a regular junior league next summer which we believe is very desirious among the rank and file of players. While the present series has not been without its faults, the practical benefits derived from it has more than justified the sacrifices made by all concerned.
Baseball in Alexandria
The article, promised for this week, relative to the delayed arrangement for a series of games for the colored championship of Alexandria, Va, will have to be postponed until next week. The reporter has been unable to get in touch with the officials of the Lafayettes. An explanation has been made by the manager of the All Stars but he would give no statement for publication.
DEPARTMENTAL TEAMS PLAY FOR CUP
The Bureau and General Accounts baseball teams of the Colored Departmental League winners, respectively,
of the first and second sections of the season's schedule, will play a three game series at American League park on September 18, 19 and 20th.
A handsome loving cup will go to the winner.
The batteries for Monday, September 18 will be Punch who gave only 32 hits and 20 runs during the season, and Barbour for Bureau; Harris who stuck out 110 men in 9 games, and Payne for General Accounts. On Tuesday the public will be furnished with a great portside struggle between Babe Adams of the Bureau and Fred Slade of the General Accounts.

HOWARD THEATER RE-OPENS TO PACKED HOUSE WITH GOOD SHOW
The Howard Theater re-opened Monday night with Mr. Walter Pinchback as manager, to a packed house in spite of a downpour of rain, with Billy Higgins' "Follow Me" as the super attraction. Those who braved the weather, were more than repaid for their efforts by the wonderful show presented by one of the largest aggregations ever seen on the stage of this favorite playhouse.
Headed by the "King" of comedians, Billy Higgins; Clifford Ross and Ernest R. Whitman and supported by such stars as Susie Sutton, Alice Gorgas, Lena Leggett and others, "Follow Me" proved to be a show that easily won its way into the good graces of the audience. The acting is snappy, the songs are catchy, the scenery beautiful and the jokes are funny; so with all of this mixed together, "Follow Me" can unhesitatingly be labelled a riot of fun, mirth and hilarity.
The show is in two acts with seven scenes in the first act and five scenes. ATER d Saturday, d and 23nd 2 DAYS

The biggest song hit of the evening however was Billy Higgins' special number "The Voo Doo Doctor Man." Cliff Ross with his Bert Williams style, went over big with his numbers and Ernest R.

Miss Hicks eclipsed all the female artists with her rendition of "He May be Your Man, but He Comes to See Me Sometimes."

MONEYBUND POLITICAL UNDERWORLD DOMINATES WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT
By Joseph C. Manning
Our government must be freed from domination by the moneybund underworld of high finance if our republic is to live.
The secretive control of political parties by this underworld of invisible government, this selfish wealth domination, must come to an end or else the last shred of our fabric of popular government is gone.
This power of wealthy greed is today riding, with both spurs, in our national government.
Candidates for public office in certain sections of our country are no longer selected by the people. They are designated by the interests. The people are permitted to vote, to be sure, but the machine candidate for whom they vote has been designated by invisible government in control of the moneybund oiled political machines.
A few moneybund politicians, dominating political machines, in a great state like New York, get together in secret conference and they designate the candidate to be voted for as the party choice for nomination. The contest at the election then becomes merely a struggle between the moneybund controlled party candidates as to which shall be permitted to serve the moneybund interests. The political underworld of invisible government turns loose the finance, together with the moneybund controlled press, behind that candidate best fitted to play the game at the behest of their invisible government.
Selfish Rich In Public Office
Wealth has grown so arrogant, invisible government had become so audacious that those of this group have determined to grasp public positions of power themselves, where and when possible, rather than trust to the designation or delegation of high place. They find it more satisfactory, the results more to their liking, to wedge in themselves, here and there, in powerful positions. They are now to be found in the cabinet, in the Senate, in the House, while they are coming to hold appointive government positions in the several states as never before. Retired millionaires, as in the state of New York, dig out of retirement to hog ordinary federal appointments.
"The demands of society are such that only men of means can afford to hold public office in Washington," is much worked propaganda these days. This is thrown out to cover up and to shield this vulgar intrusion of the moneybund underworld of invisible government into public positions formerly occupied by citizens representative of the masses of the American people.
"It takes wealth to enable one to properly function in government positions of importance in Washington," this is the declaration of the moneybund and the sentiment of the present administration panderers to the moneybund. Washington, as a result of this, now has the top notch of the socializing of government and the full fruition of a socializing Harding Republican snobocracy.
The golf course is where some frequent, the tennis court is where others sport, while the socializing dining, with other always heralded snob functioning, manifests acknowledged public interest, so far as official Washington is concerned, prior to the duties of public office and the welfare of the country. It becomes rather painful to the socializing Republican snobocracy, after engaging in the socializing reception and dinner engagements of the night, playing at golf or tennis mornings, to then while away, in perfunctory manner, a few hours at a government desk. The common people of the country, who are taxed to support the government, are slow to absorb the necessity for increased and increasing salaries "to meet the demands of Washington society," but the insidious explanations of the greedy big rich moneybund could easily find a way to relieve this difficulty of proper interpretation of their desires to raid the treasury were it not for such Senators as LaFollette and Borah.
Seriously do the American people ask for the answer to what can be done to meet this issue and to correct this condition.
Vote the Moneybund Out
One way to trim the power of the moneybund is to override and out-vote machine designated moneybund selections to be voted for in primary elections. Combat, at the primary election, the tool of the moneybund, political underworld of invisible government. The requirement of the hour is for independence of political bossism and of the political machine in voting.
Assert independence of party by voting out of office the selfish big rich or their mercenary tools who have gambled themselves into office in

Why Complain of "No Business" or "Hard Times" when The Tribune can start your business wheels turning?
Read this letter showing the value of an investment in a Tribune Advertisement and then judge for yourself.
Washington, for no other purpose than to protect and to serve the greedy and gouging interests.
Vote the moneybund out.
Put out of office in Washington, and elsewhere, this Republican snobocracy which sets up the pretense that "it is a sacrifice to hold public office in Washington." Put in office those whose heart throbs are of and for the people and who will not consider it a sacrifice to do their public duties in Washington on the reasonable pay fixed by the government before the reign of snobocrats.
Put in public office those who are more interested in the burdens of the plain people than a game of golf.
Put in office men who are willing to perspire at a government job, if need be to serve their country, precisely as tax paying farmers and men in the shops and in the factories daily have to do to meet the every day duties of life and uphold the ever increasing burdens of their government.
If some of these in high official snobocracy in Washington, sometimes pictured in the Sunday supplement of the daily press in scant apparel, would wet themselves and their shirts at hard work for the government, instead of lolling around the swimming pool of a hotel kept for these social high flyers, the people's government would not now be drifting along through these days and months of neglect, as well as incompetency.
Link Between Moneybund Leaders
The truth of the existing political situation is that certain leadership in both political parties become very much like links of the same sausage from the same moneybund invisible government hog.
Clean out of public office all those who have the odor of the sausage.
When it comes to pass, for example, that a Senator is heralded and acclaimed as an "institution," when that Senator gets to regard himself and to be regarded by the interests as a fixture, by reason of his aristocracy and stilted superiority over his fellows, it is high time that such Senators be retired to give place to one whose elbows touch, elbow to elbow, with the plain people of his state.
A so-called "master mind," given to adroit service to the interests, skilled by reason of years of machinations, is not nearly so much needed in Washington as the average mind given to the average every day need of the plain people of the country.
There is nothing in human compre-
hension more hypocritical than for one, who happens to be a Senator and whose cellar has been stacked with drink, to go forth as a champion of the Volstead Act, while criticising opponents of the drastic provisions of this act, whose cellars are not stocked, as opponents of law enforcement. One who seeks amendment to or modification of the Volstead Act, favoring beer and light wines, is not an enemy to the government any more than is one who seeks a change in the tariff laws.
It is reprehensible for the moneybund group or the selfish big rich to take the position that privileges should be denied plain American Citizens on the grounds that this or that is not best for the plain man who works while it is all right for and enjoyable to the moneybund aristocracy. A lofty attitude, in effect that only the social snobocracy can have certain things to drink, without harm, is intolerable in a democracy. It is infamous in principle.
Some socializing Senator, who is rich enough to entertain in a house boat, who has his expanse of lawns and gardens, together with Jersey cattle, in addition to his previously stocked cellar, such a Senator, whose cause is espoused by fanatic Prohibitionists, ought to wake up the morning after election and find himself voted out of office into private citizenship side by side with the average man who may be fortunate to have just one cow, but who would also like to have the privilege to buy a glass of beer, in the absence of his not being one of the big rich with a cellar stocked with all sorts of good things to drink.
Government at Washington would not suffer, the least bit, if Senator seats were unoccupied by either the Senator acclaimed as an "institution" or by the socializing Senator whose mental auger as a statesman has no deeper bore than has the bill of an incapacitated New Jersey mosquito. In as much as the Senate, under present Republican moneybund control, is politically sick, Ohio machine Republicans have nominated a doctor. His cellar is admittedly as empty as will be the Senate seat in event of his election. However, administration Senators would have a sort of doctor, which they need, but not so badly as they so surely need political common sense and unselfish patriotism.

tlemen:
I cannot refrain from again telling you
markable results I am receiving through my adve
the Tribune.
I note that the greatest returns from
being in The Tribune; come from Motorists of wide
one who can appreciate quality. It is apparent
paper of the man who thinks for himself.
in an adverse report on the Ford offer to take over and operate Mussel Shoals, stated that the Ford offer was a real estate proposition of the first magnitude and expressed wonder that it did not include a proposal to lease the capitol of the United States. If Ford had a lease on the capitol and turned out as poor a make of jitneys therefrom as the tin lizzy type of talk turned out by the Harding administration Senators, Ford would soon be in the poor house and unable to hold his lease.
Judged by his record as a manufacturer and business man, by his competency in conducting his tremendous organization, there are not a few American citizens who are coming to think that a man who organizes industry and pays human wages is not in the least subjected to would-be ridicule by that reflection or observation of certain Senators. So far as benefit to the American people, Ford might lease the capitol, and, at that, do more good by manufacturing fertilizers or link sausage than is accomplished by the present grinding out of moneybund legislation.
Henry Ford has demonstrated that honest wealth can pay, and ought to pay, a living wage.
Henry Ford has demonstrated and proven that honest wealth can give workers a decent living and then multinly riches.
The force and the power of the humane example, the live and let live standard of Henry Ford, together with its far reaching influence, certain moneybund legislators do not now comprehend, but they will, sooner or later, comprehend. Some day, maybe soon, some one, having decided views as to the methods of the moneybund, will free the American masses from the political slavery to which they are now subjected by this invisible government through the operations and machinations of this high finance political super underworld. Already men of fearless character of the type of Henry Ford and William Randolph Hearst are pointing the way to the approach of a leadership and public sentiment powerful enough to combat the money greed of entrenched privilege.
Meanwhile, may the American people, in the coming Fall election, vote out the Republican snobocrats and vote them out as unanimously as some of them were voted in. Pave the way for cleaning out the Harding regime in 1924.

"The Voice of Mizriam" a book of poems by John Walter Paisley deserves a place in the rapidly increasing library of American Negro poets.
NEGRO JINGLES
"Y" stands for Young,
A soldier kind and brave,
He died in his country's service,
Now he fills a hero's grave.
Little Alice Neversad
Was always jolly gay, and glad;
She kept smiling all the time—
To reach upon a shelf;
He tumbled off and struck his head—
But never hurt himself.
Every Tribunite is urged to write
the word "Negro" with a capital let-
ter. Please remember this.
MASTER JINGLE
In the "Ten Dollar Award Contests" award number five was the Jingle Contest. A jingle under the title of "Ten Little Shadow Men" was introduced. Three verses were published and the jingle was to be completed by the Tribunites. The winner of the first prize of One Dollar was Ruth Waters. Second prize was won by Marie Winder. Third prize was won by Zelda A. Carter. These prize jingles were published September 2nd. Three other jingles were published September 9th. They were submitted by Anthony Lemmon, Eloise Robinson, and Helen Payne. We promised to select what we thought were the best submitted verses and publish them under the heading of "Master Jingle."
The first three verses are as follows:
Ten little shadow men
All standing in a row
Each dressed in eve'ning clothes
Wondering where to go.
One went to a dancing class
To pass away the time—
After he went on his way
There were only nine.
One went to a movie show
He hoped he wasn't late—
After he went on his way,
There were only eight.
The best submitted verses follow.
The name of the person from whose jingle it was taken is given after each verse.
For each name there is a theater ticket. The Tribunites whose names appear here are requested to call at the Tribune office and receive same.
One wandered to a ball
To dance until eleven—
After he went on his way
There were only seven.
One went to a dinner And cocktails he did mix After he went on his way
One went to a pool room
It was a low down dive—
After he went on his way
There were only five.
One went to a doctor
Because his leg was sore
After he went on his way
There were only four
One went to his sister's house
Where he would stay for tea—
After he went on his way
There were only three.
—Mary J. Phillips
One went out in an auto
With friends quite a few—
After he went on his way
There were only two.
—Gursta Boyd
One met a "botlegger"
And drank some awful rum—
And when the law captured him
That left only one.
The sun went down behind the hills— Shadows were not many— After the sun went on its way, Of shadow men—there wasn't any— Geo. H. Daugherty
CHATTER BOX
A good way to remember that it is wrong to write "alright" for "all right" is to remind yourself that you do not write "alwrong" for "all wrong."

LETTERS FROM OUR LITTLE
FRIENDS
Dear Editor: I have been reading the "Children's Page" and answering the puzzles and questions, but have not been sending them in. I am sending this week's work in hoping they are right. I also wish to become a member of this page. Hoping that my letter will not find its way to the trash pile. I live at Hall's Hill, Va.
ANNA WATSON (Age 12)
Dear Editor: Do you not think it would be nice for us to have a Contest Talk about nature? Letters must be original and should tell of trees, wild flowers, woodland walks, hikes, water sports, playground and school contests. While the letters must tell of something you have learned do not trust your memory. Look up these subjects. EDWARD WASHINGTON (Age 12) (A fine idea. Who is interested? Send in an essay, Edward, and start the ball a roaring.-Ed.)
Dear Editor: I have been reading the "Children's Page" for quite a few weeks and have found out how helpful and interesting it is. For the first time I am sending the answers to some of the "Negro History Questions" and I am sending in the Jumble. I hope they are all right. I intend to read the "Children's Page" every week and answer as many questions as I can. I hope the weather is good enough for you.
Dear Editor: I am sending in a sign and I hope it is all right. Thanks very much for the tickets I won. I was very much surprised to find I had won third prize in the Jingle Contest. I also hope the sign will capture a prize. Again I wish to thank you.
ZELDA A. CARTER (Age 12)
Dear Editor: I received the dollar I won in the Jingle Contest. I was hoping to win one of the prizes but—I was scared to death Without a breath of hoping to win such a prize as a dollar. Thanks ever so much over and over again.
RUTH WATERS (Age 13)
My dear Editor: I intend to be more active in the affairs of the "Children's Page" from now on. I certainly wish to command Lucille Payne and Rufus Turner on their efforts. They are excellent examples of one-hundred per cent Tribunites. VIOLET M. HARRIS (Age 16)
Dear Editor: I am writing you a letter I have been intending to write to you for a very long time. I enjoy the letters that the other Tribunites write but I certainly would like to see some of them write original letters. All of them send in letters telling how well they like the Page. Why don't some of them write about home, school or play? I would suggest that they write letters just like they would write to friends. Make them snappy and start right now.
PURNEL HALL (Age 16)
Hello Editor: Just a line or two from me to you telling you I read the "Children's Page" and like everything on it and in it, even if I have never written to you before. Put me down as a true Tribunite always rooting and boosting for my very own paper because of the "Children's Page."
Dear Editor: Vacation time is over and school is waiting for us. I am glad. I intend to organize a race history class this year. Some time ago Evertean Scott was writing and telling about a history club she had organized. I would suggest that she tell us something about her club and its work.
PEARL T. YOUNG (Age 15)
Dear Editor: This is a letter to the readers of this page. Let every reader write a letter on certain subjects. Let us tell about our vacation next week. Even if you haven't been out of the city just tell what you have done during your vacation time. Do you think this a good idea?
ROSA A. TYLER (?)
OUR LETTERS
Our letters for this week contain some dandy suggestions. What say you?
We could get our school season going fine with the carrying out of some or all of these suggestions.
The Editor wants you to feel that this is your very own page. If you can send in stories, letters, drawings, pictures, poems, jingles, and puzzles to fill the Page—so well and so good.
Get on your thinking caps and start a letter and let us hear what and how you think the Page can be improved or made more interesting.
ANSWERS TO LAST WEEK'S

NEGRO HISTORY QUESTION Which do you think is the greatest of these three men: Booker T. Washington, Dunbar, Douglass? Why?
TO OUR ARTISTS
We are arranging to run a series of articles containing information of value to the young artists. These talks will be different from any published elsewhere before.
The first article will be by Mr. William M. Hammond, Jr., a young Washington artist whose illustrative and commercial work is well known in Washington.
As outlined, his article will give many points to those who desire to see their work in print.
Many good drawings are sent to the Page but fall short on various points. Mr. Hammond visited the office, saw some of these pictures and became so interested in them that he decided to tell you what to do and what not to do in regards to submitting pictures for publication.
Watch for this article and others which will follow.
SEVENTH AWARD
The newsboys failed to send in any articles on how they make their sales increase. Many of the boys told us what they did to increase their sales of the Tribune, but none sent in written articles.
So endeth that.
The Ten.Dollar Contest will be extended a week so as to get rid of the dollar that should have been award seven.
It pays to send in a contribution, no matter what the contest is about.
If three very very poor articles had been sent in—they would have won simply because they would have been the only ones sent in.
THE BALTIMORE ORIQLE
One day a friend and I took a walk through the woods. We came to a branch in Rock Creek Park and while jumping from one rock to another we saw a beautiful bird which is called the Baltimore Oriole or firebird. It is also called the Maryland bird. It is very common in North America from Canada to Mexico. The oriole comes from the South in May, and in trees and vines builds its hanging nest made of moss and fibres skillfully woven together. Threads, strings, and horse hairs are used in building the nest, which is a deep hanging pouch about six inches long.
The oriole is about seven inches long, with a sharp tail. The plumage is beautiful, especially on the male, being a glossy black mixed with bright orange and yellow. These were the colors of Lord Baltimore's livery, hence the name. Its song is strong and pleasant, a ringing whistle easy to imitate. It is valuable for its destruction of insects, especially the tent caterpillar and the canker worm. EDW. WASHINGTON (Age 12)

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF EDUCATION?
The opening of the city schools next week, brings the subject of Education prominently before us. In discussing that subject there is one question that stands out very prominently in our minds: What is the Greatest Question that can be raised in the Entire Field of Education Today? This question will be answered invariably according to the hobby of the person attempting to answer it, One will say that the curriculum is the most important; another will champion the junior high school as outstanding; another will raise the question of finance—it is very prominent before the budget committee just now; another will tell you that tests and measurements will solve the problem of education; others will champion child study as the principal factor; another will tell you that "Americanization" is the big factor; yet another will say that a high school education for every child is the crying need; another will extol the benefit of rural school reform, while another will advocate administration and supervision as the one factor and yet another will tell you that the problem will be solved thru the proper preparation of teachers. These are all very important but the greatest question that can be raised in the field of education today, is the subject of this article: "What is the purpose of Education?"
The awful facts confronting us are ignorance and inertia. Old ideas remain steadfastly where they were cradled. Solemn fancies of honest but simple minded leadership and its trailing clientele abound. Nineteen centuries have passed since Jesus issued that profound message: "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." The night of ignorance yet enslaves mankind. Learned nonsense abounds. Learning which is neither fundamental to nor comprehensive of life. The educated person is the same life victim as the uneducated. Physically and mentally both classes are victims of the same disease, while along the line of moral conduct one can not distinguish the difference. Education is merely a matter of bookish superficiality. The tree of supposed knowledge is a mirage in the desert. What is really the purpose of Educa-

LYNCHING BILL SHOWS
(Continued from page 1)
It is cheaper for the Southern States to put up a few thousand dollars and distribute it advantageously to prevent the passage of the Dyer bill than it is to pay $10,000 for each Negro they want to hang. More than forty Negroes have been mobbed in the South this year already. That would mean $400,000 to be paid out by the States, according to the provisions of the Dyer bill. Would it not be cheaper to distribute $50,000 for obstinate objection to the Dyer bill.
The Republicans have been hoodwinking the colored people of this country long enough, on what Lincoln did for them. Lincoln has been dead so long that even his principles have been discarded by the Republicans. They have forgotten that he was President, save when they want their loyal colored supporters to help them put some man in office. The failure of the Dyer bill should wake the sleeping colored people all over the United States. If its failure will arouse them to a full realization of the perfidy, the treachery, the hypocrisy, the money-talks-policy of the Republican Party, then its failure will not be in vain.
With a Republican House having 167 majority and a Republican Senate with 37 majority, it is purile to even mention the fact that this bill may not pass because of too much opposition. That is what the President and Senator Lodge told the ladies

the Law of Life and Service, the test and measure of Greatness—then will this truth be universally recognized: Those who train and mold and inspire the young are the real Leaders of the people—Makers and Builders of the Nation"—Henry Louis Smith, Ph.D.
We all agree that education is a good thing. We believe that it is better to educate an individual than not to educate him. But, when we invest such faith in Education, we should know WHY? Faith is a sacred thing and we should know why we put so much faith in Education. Why do we educate our children? What are we trying to do when we endeavor to educate them?
We venture to answer that question with this statement: The Purpose of Education, should be to guarantee the great, instinctive, universal, and unalienable right of every individual of spiritual self-preservation. That endowment which gives to every individual the inate sense of self-poise, self-security, self-power, self-command, self-respect, self-justification; that development which enshrines every individual with the spirit of courage—leaving no single trace of cowardice, no trace of fear, no trace of introversion, no trace of self-condemnation—no trace of anything which might in any way tend to break down the great psychic personality. The real purpose of education is not a great mountain of facts that may be absorbed by and reside in the human mind, but the degree of inner mental harmony that exists in that same mind. Therefore, no coward is entitled to be called educated; for cowardice is one sure evidence of mental inarmony. The power of mental harmony is courage.
Could we but realize that contrary to general opinion, society is the means and the individual is the end of educational effort. Then we would realize that education means the supplying to 'society, individuals with psychic sanity instead of psychic chaos and psychic anarchy. Individuals with health and harmony instead of disease and discord; whose fibre is courage rather than cowardice; whose essence is love rather than fear. The world is not in need of more intellectual clap-trap. We do not need more stuffed minds but we do need a comprehensive state of mind, inspired by the consciousness of purpose, with fear and cowardice driven out and courage and self-trust, self-possession, self-approval glorified as the great purpose of Education.
from the Northeastern Confederation of Colored Women's Clubs, and the committee of newspaper men who called on him the day following the ladies' committee.
The Negro that will vote for the Republican Party this fall, in the face of all the Republicans have failed to do, should be listed as a traitor to his God, to his own conscience and to his race.
SCHOOLS OPEN MONDAY
Monday the public schools of the District will open their doors for another ten month's term. There will possibly be an enrollment of 70,000 students during this term. Last year the total enrollment ran up to 67,064, with 34,212 girls and 32,852 boys. Of this number 10,822 were colored girls and 9,487 colored boys, with a total of 20,209. There were more colored girls than boys, while with the whites there were more boys than girls, which were 23,365 boys and 23,330 girls.
In the 10th, 11th, 12th and 13th divisions there are 42 schools and 746 teachers. Five teachers have married during the vacation period and one died.
With the four additional rooms at the Deanwood school, eight in the Cleveland school, and eight new ones at Mott, there are twenty additional rooms for colored children. The Cleveland school will relieve the Garrison school, where there were six portables which have been removed for an addition of eight new rooms, to be ready by next September.
