The business men and public the Citizens Association of their desires known as to the certain that the Commission fore their final improvement incoming Congress, will recon belongs to our group in this s Now that there is quite a bit of agitation on the part of the citizens' associations in various sections of the city for needed and better street improvements, it is proper that attention of the District Commissioners be called to U Street, northwest, and especially to that part which lies between Seventh Street and Fourteenth Street. During the last five years, Washington's colored business center has been rapidly moving to this section. U Street has received its share of this development; so much so, that the street is inadequate to properly take care of the traffic, both vehicular and foot, that it is called upon to accommodate. The sidewalks are greatly in need of repair. In most cases they are of brick that have long since passed their usefulness and are in many places a menace to life and limb. When it rains, the many holes fill with water and make walking very unpleasant and difficult. These conditions cause a very large part of the pedestrian traffic to seek other streets and thereby cause the business houses along U Street to suffer financial loss. The recent improvements of the street car company this summer, eliminated one bad feature of the street for motorists, and it was hoped by many business men that the District authorities would then begin carrying out their part of the needed improvements; viz., the widening of the street by narrowing the parking, thus making it actually a "business street." Of course, the colored businesses are the ones that suffer most from the lack of these improvements, because they predominate on this street. Because of the number of these colored businesses, whenever a convention or big gathering comes to the city, naturally they locate their headquarters on this street. Such was the case this summer when the Masons visited here. Aside from the difficulty of sidewalk traffic, it was impossible for the two big Masonic parades to pass along U Street, although it was the logical street for them to traverse. If this street was properly widened, it could be utilized for what it properly is—the Pennsylvania Avenue of the upper Northwest section. Other needs are for more and better lights on this street, and also a public comfort station. From the lack of this necessity the business men on U Street are caused much annoyance daily. Such a station could be very well located in the triangle between Vermont Avenue and Tenth Street, which property belongs to the District. The business men and public spirited citizens, together with the Citizens Association of this section, should at once make their desires known as to these improvements; for it is quite certain that the Commissioners, if urged in this matter before their final improvement budget is submitted to the incoming Congress, will recommend and include what, rightly belongs to our group in this section. In a former article in this column, under the heading, "The Negro Architect, Contractor and Builder," it was erroneously stated that "under the plan of organization of the Congregational Church, this edifice when completed will be the property, not of the congregation, but of the national church organization, which is controlled by white people." This column desires to make a correction of this mistake. It has been learned that the Congregational NEW MUSIC STORE OPENED About five years ago, Mr. G. B. Reid, of Boston, conceived the idea of going to Washington and opening a first class music store. Mr. Reid came to this city and on investigation found everything so high because of the war that he decided to wait until things got back to normal. While waiting, he opened a barbershop at 1026 U Street, Northwest. About two months ago, Mr. Reid closed out his barber shop and re-decorated the same room for a music store. Two weeks ago the new music store opened for business. "Everything Musical," is the motto of the store. Mr. Reid is carrying string instruments, pianos, graphonolas, records, Q. R. S. rolls and sheet music. Mr. Reid is a voilin maker by trade and also conducts a repair shop in connection with his store. He is prepared to repair all kinds of string instruments as well as take orders for real violins. There are only four colored men in the Eastern section of the country who are violin makers. Three of them are in Washington and one in New York City, according to Mr. Reid. This is a new line among colored men and Mr. Reid brings to U Street a new business. The store is well stocked and the outlook is promising for an excellent business.

Each church is a sovereign within itself. Title to the property is held in the name of the local church organizaton and all debts incurred are assessed only against the local church. Therefore, in the case of the proposed new building of the Local Congregational church at the corner of 11th and R Sts., N.W., the church property and rights are owned and controlled entirely by the membership of that church. Whatever building they may build will be owned entirely by them. CHURCH OBSERVES 90TH ANNIVERSARY Alexandria Va., Oct. 14—Roberts Chapel Methodist Episcopal Church, is now observing its ninetieth anniversary. Roberts Chapel dates origin back to 1832. In its early history its services were held from house to house. Later the meetings were held in the building on North Columbus Street now occupied by the White Odd Fellows. The name first borne by the Church was Chas A. Davis Chapel. A very interesting historical sketch was compiled by the late Norman B. Pinn in 1890. The first sermon of the anniversary was expected to have been preached by Bishop M. W. Clair, D.D. LL.D., on Sunday, October 8th. The Bishop had to attend a conference in the South, so he preached at the morning services of September 30th. Rev. Julius S. Carroll, pastor of Asbury Church, Washington, preached last Sunday and Rev. Walter S. Jackson the District Superintendent preached at night. Major John H. Anderson, recently returned from Monrovia, Africa. He was the speaker Thursday night. On Sunday morning the 15th Rev. E. Adolph Haynes, pastor of the church, will deliver the sermon. Bishop W. F. McDowell, D.D., LL.D., will preach at night. The following program is for the nights next week: Monday, Pageant; Tuesday, Stereopticion Lecture; Wednesday, Fraternal night; Thursday, Sunday School night; Friday, Banquet. ```markdown ``` WASHINGTON, D.

Rules of the Contest SCHOOL BOARD TAKES ACTION ON NEW BUILDING Decides to Begin Construction of Addition to Smothers School in Northeast At the called meeting of the Board of Education, Wednesday, it was decided to begin the construction of the new four room Smothers School, to replace the present two-room frame building now serving that section. The new building will be near Bennings Road and 42nd Street N. E. Three additional teachers were appointed from this year's class of the Miner Normal, making twenty from that class already. There were 46 graduates in this year's class eligible to grade appointment. During the whole of the last school year, there were 38 out of 45 appointed from the class of 1921. The new eight-room addition to the Mott school will be ready for occupancy next week. The seats were installed this week and everything will be in order for the opening. School officials hope to have the Bell building ready by January. This will give 52 buildings for the colored divisions of the District. At present there are 746 teachers. The following changes and appointments were made: Resignations: L. K. Harrison, caretaker, Miner Normal. Leave of Absence: M. B. Thornton, teacher, class 2. Payne.

It begins this week and TO APPEAL FOR NIGHT SCHOOL IN ANACOSTIA Much Inconvenience Suffered by Citizens Desiring to Study TheHillsdale Citizens Association held its first monthly meeting of the fall at James G. Birney School, Nichols Ave., Anacostia this week. The president, Dr. R. H. Shipley, in his opening remarks stated that the most important thing for the association to consider was how to have the night schools re-opened at the Birney school. He further stated that the closing of the night schools, especially in Anacostia, had worked an unusual hardship on those desiring to attend. It is now necessary for them to go across the bridge in order to attend school. As many of those desiring to attend are working people, the distance from their homes to the present schools is too far to make it practical for them to attend. The association went on record as favoring the president's suggestion and it was decided to present the matter to the School Board. A committee was appointed to secure data showing the necessity for a night school. The efforts of the Commissioners to secure ample funds to improve the streets in the District was endorsed by the Association. It was brought out that some of the roads in Barry Farm that were left in a deplorable condition after the heavy rain in September, had not been repaired because of insufficient funds. The cooperative spirit of Capt. Reilly and members of the 11th Precinct also came in tive spirit of Capt. Reilly and the police force of the 11th Precinct also came in for hearty commendation. Twenty new members were admitted to membership in the association. Would You Suggest For The rizes for the best titles submitted for re- k's paper for further details.

Circulation Books Open To All COMMITS SHOOTING SELF Was Well Known in Church and Fraternal Circles of the City *ACT WAS DELIBERATE Funeral Services will be held Sunday from Metropolitan Wesley Church William Harry Ricks, prominent in fraternal and church circles and paying-teller at the Industrial Savings Bank, committed suicide by shooting himself just below the heart last Monday morning at 10:30 o'clock. Mr. Ricks shot himself in his room at 1523 Church St. N.W., where he lived. Upon hearing the shot, the people in the house at the time, rushed to Mr. Ricks' room where they found him practically unconscious. An ambulance from Emergency hospital was summoned and he was rushed to the hospital where he lingered between life and death until Tuesday morning when he died. Ricks shot himself with a 32 caliber revolver. Many reasons have been advanced for his action in taking his life, but the more probable theories are despondency over his family and household affairs; and worry over jury service. He has been estranged from his wife for many years. From all evidence his action was deliberately and carefully planned. It is stated that last week he returned many personal articles he had belonging to some of his friends; he also left a letter to Mr. Bowie, cashier of the Industrial Bank, which reads as follows: Washington, D. C., 10-9-22. Mr. "B": Enclosed find key to my cash box. On Saturday Oct. 7-22 when I closed, the box balanced to $1000.00. [Editor's Note: This is the amount kept in the paying teller's box.] I owe $75.00 to U. S. Savs. bank on my stock due Dec. 6-22 and if you will go up and present card to Mr. Newman you can make for yourself $85. I thank you for the many kind acts you have done for me. But Mr. "B" this jury business has got on my nerves. [Note: This letter was written on Chas. Datcher Lodge stationary with a soft blue pencil.] William Harry Ricks was born in Raleigh, N. C., and came to Washington with his people and later graduated from the local high school. He later went to NewHampshire to live and afterwards moved to New York City. Leaving New York he came back to Washington. He worked in the Bureau of Engraving for a number of years and received several promotions. He became connected with the Industrial Savings Bank soon after its organization. He was secretary of the Board of Directors and during the past two years was paying teller of the institution. He was a member of Rising Sun Lodge 1365, G. U. O. O. F., Phyllis Wheatley Household of Ruth, Chas. Datcher Lodge F. A. A. M., of which he was secretary, and Simon Commandery Knights Templar. He was also a member of Metropolitan Wesley A. M. E. Z. Church of 211 D St. southwest. He leaves to mourn his loss, a mother, brother and wife. Funeral services will be held Sunday, October 15th, from this Church at 1 o'clock. Burial will be in Harmony Cemetery. I. N. ROSS EXONORATED The exoneration of I. N. Ross, Jr., of the charge of embezzlement of $50.00 from the Peoples Bank, on U Street, came Tuesday when G. C. Bradford wrote a letter to the Judge, withdrawing the charge. Mr. Ross was employed as cashier of the little bank established in the Lincoln Theatre building, by G. C. Bradford, a white real estate broker.

John L. Jordan celebrated the clos- ing of the first semester by passing |all of his subjects and the North Car. jolina bar as well. W. Arvey Wood in the interim bet- ween his final examinations and the graduating exercises, passed the Con- necticut bar, the first Howard man to perform the feat. Mr. Wood is now engaged in practicing with offices in the Pallotti-Andretta Building in Hartford. Harry M. Green wad later admitted to the Virginia bar. He is now prac- ticing in Richmond. The District of Columbia bar, the bete noir of bar aspirants the nation over, yielded the palm to Walter H. Mazyck, John W. Love and Campbell C. Johnson, the last two of whom passed, also, the North Carolina bar. This sprightly trio has now become the latest addition to the local en- semble, with offices in U street, N. W. From Indiana has come news of thi success of Richard W. Tompkins, |Alva L. Pulliam, Lloyd M. Gibson and Charles H. Wills who subsequent. ly was admitted also to the Texas bar.

Coach Duvall B. Evans the former Lincoln University center has possibly the best lot of material this season that Normal has had in many years. Besides the regulars of last season, "Babe" England, Murrell of Lincoln Institute, Geo. Douthit of the basket ball team and Lee Smith who did not play last season are some of the new faces seen in the line up. The team is in the best of shape for the trip to Charleston for the game with West Virginia Saturday. The first two games of the season have been won by good margins. The schedule for the season follows: Sept. 30—Lexington "All Stars" at Frankfort Oct. 7—Winchester A. C. at Frankfort. Oct. 14—W. Va. Inst. at Charleston W. Va. Oct. 21—Central at Louisville, Ky. Oct. 28—Lincoln Inst. at Frankfort. Nov. 4—Wilberforce University at Nov. 11—Chandler Normal at Frankfort. Nov. 18—Simmons Univ. of Louisville at Frankfort. Nov. 30—Tenn. State Normal at Nashville, Tenn. FOOTBALL AT ARMSTRONG The adherents of Armstrong are hailing with delight the prospects of football at that institution. Coach Rayford, with quite a few of last year's veterans are under a system of training that seems to be fruitful of excellent results. Captain Marshall, of the Blue and Gray forces, is planning to enter the team on quite an extensive schedule consisting of seven or eight games beginning Saturday October 14, with the Mozart Athletic Club of Alexandria. This game will be played in Washington on the Monument Grounds. Monday, October 16 the heavy team from Storer College, Harper's Ferry, W. Va., will invade the District to measure its strength against Armstrong at the American League Baseball Park beginning at 3 o'clock. On October 23, Howard Freshmen will be the opponents, and on November 1st, the Manassas Institute boys will be their guests here. November 10th, will find Armstrong visiting Norfolk where they will play the strong team Met Rev. 11 A.M. 8 P.M. 9:30 A. 3 P.M. C 6:30 P.M. The R of the B Each Su Eastern "TO HIM TH shall be given."

Washington High School. Baltimore High School, Lovejoy Community Center team, and Dunbar High School will offer a fitting close to the season at Tech. The many former students of Storer College now attending Howard will probably be at the game at American League Park on Monday, October 16, in large numbers to cheer their alma mater representatives for what is probably the last time Armstrong and Storer will clash on the football field, because Storer is now classed among the colleges and Armstrong still retains her High School status. This is to be regretted because of the very cordial relations which exist between the two institutions. ST PAUL VICTORIOUS IN THRILLING GAME Cuffee Intercepts Forward Pass and Races 81 Yards for Touchdown Lynchburg, Va., Oct. 7—In a hard fought and thrilling game, played in red mud from four to six inches deep, St. Paul, for the second consecutive year, defeated Virginia Seminary and College by the score of 6 to 0. Over eight hundred persons witnessed the youthful struggle between the mighty, agile, alert, and tenacious Orange and Black, and Blue and White machines for gridiron victory. Though defeated, the Seminary's playing should not be criticized, nor should excessive credit be given the victor. The home boys played hard, scientific football and fought the pigskin battle to a finish; but the "break" which proved to be favorebale to St. Paul caused the downfall of the Dragons. St. Paul, however, played a great game, and at the crucial moment exhibited an impregnable line, with a back field which never lost sight of the ball. After straight football for nearly two periods, Virginia Seminary resorted to the aerial attack. Cuffee intercepted a beautiful forward pass on his 19 yard line and galloped 81 yards for the first and only touchdown, and the score which gave St. Paul a hard earned victory. Tyler made a good throw, but St. Paul's clever, quick and baffling interference upset the offensive play, and the elusive Cuffee's hands proved a depository for the oval. Jordan accepted the task of pursuing Cuffee. He followed him to Seminary's $17\frac{1}{2}$ yard line, and there attempted a flying tackle, which merely culminated in a spectacular finish for the old Veteran, Rev. Jordan. Cuffee's long run featured the game, and this play was a hilarious moment for the St. Paul camp. Metropolitan A. M. E. Church [Name] SHELBY J. DAVIDSON, Attorney.

Howard’s schedule calls for a game with Union on October 28th, while St. Paul appears on Union's schedule for a game on the same date. The latter game was arranged last season and gets the call. There will also be no Lincoln-Union game this fall. From where we sit we see nothing that should prevent the meeting of the “Big Three” teams, The Howard-Lincoln, Howard-Union and Union-Lincoln games should rival those of Harvard, Yale and Princeton, “Phe dates should be set and no other arrangements should intervene, They are the most promiinent universities in the East and-have in recent years’ been represented with strong elevens. In addition they are easily accessable to each other, being within a short traveling radius. Union and Howard haven’t met on the gridiron since 1920. They could not decide on a date last year, and now after two years’ deliberation are still far from a decision, i ‘The lamentable ending of the Union-Lincoln game last fall when late in the fourth period with the score 7 to 0 against them, Lincoln’s men objected to a ruling of the referee and caused the game to be forfeited to Union is possibly the direct cause of these teams not meeting this fall. Howard’s schedule is not 2 championship test in any way. West Vir- ginia and Shaw are missing. Morgan College has been added. There is ‘only one formidable opponent, Lincoln, on the local’s schedule. . Football candidates were called on September 15th, yet a month elapses before the initial game is played. As Howard's schedule now stands, one ‘of the choice dates of the football season, October 28th, remains an open date. Because West Virginia has always given Howard a stiff battle football followers have each season awaited this game with keen interest. Two Howard warriors were seriously injured in the West Virginia game last fall. We are informed that this team has been dropped because of the roughness of that game and also because the West Virginia authorities insist on having white officials whose fairness is questionable. West Vrginia replaces Union on Lincoln’s schedule. As the mountain- eérs are usually strong Lincoln’s schedule is hardly weakened although a game with Union would create greater interest. Union takes on Morehouse for Lincoln. Being an intersectional affair it will “cause quite a stir but wont approach in prominence a Union-Howard, or Union. Lincoln tilt. Considering the local’s weak schedule, and with an open date, why shouldn't Howard authorities start negotiation for games with some Southern colleges? At least fill that open date. The coaches at Howard have complained this year of the small re- sponse mado to the call for hew candidates. Less than forty-five stud- ‘ents have reproted to head coach Morrison out of a student body of over one thousand male students. We believe that the weak schedule and the lack of big intersectional games is primarily the cause of this poor response. As the schedule now stands, there is only one game that the players really desire to play in and that is the Lincoln game. Just as the Lincoln game has been made popular, games with Union and other colleges of Howard’s standard can also be popularized. As long as the student body is cognizant of the fact that the team has a weak schedule, they will not respond; but give the Blue and White at least three hard games a year and require that the players play in all three of them in order to get their letters, then we are sure a greater response will be noted. The pride of Howard’s student body will not see the team suffer defeat because of the lack of material. ‘The alumni is as much responsible for this situation as any one on the hill. We certainly hope they will wake up and not permit athletics to die because of the lack of interest on their part. MOREHOUSE READY TO MEET LIVINGSTONE pecial to The Tribune) Atlanta, Ga—When Coach Harvey walked on the field Monday a squad of 36 men awaited the first command of the season.

When two years ago, in altruistic gratitude for the attitude of the colored people toward Germany, I set out to teach artistic musical interpretation as taught in Berlin and further elaborated on by myself, intending my negro pupils to teach my secrets to other negroes in turn and these to still others for the permanent benefit of your race, the class of people I had intended to reach held back due to the recent unfortunate activities of a certain Hollandish adventurer. Now, through such holding back, through irony of fate concurring with present intensified negro uplift movement, your race was practically the sole loser, the more so, as it is as good as certain that imminent manufacture of my patents and publication of my compositions etc. will compel me to discontinue teaching all together before end of year. Therefore persons, especially music teachers and prospective artistic performers, desiring to study with me so as to obtain before too late, for their splendid race the information originated by me as author and taught exclusively by me and no one else, will do well to apply to my studio, Twelfth Street entrance, Pythian Temple, Twelfth and U, without delay.

To sum up, I do not teach mere piano, but Musicianship, not mere dull, mechanical skill of belaboring the greatest possible number of keys no matter how the individual note sounds, but intelligent interpretation similar to that of orchestra works at the hands of a conductor. If your playing is crude and mechanical, if it is void of expression, rhythmic and structural beauty, tone quality, -color and -shading and intellectual interpretation all around, I will be pleased to have you arrange for interview. Incidentally, my charges are reasonable. Male pupils preferred. HANS KOWSKY.

We continue to offer you the finest chicken dinner to be had in Washington, every Sunday for 40 cents. Last Sunday was the biggest day in the history of the establishment.

That is why people find it not only more convenient but cheaper to come here than to eat at home.

Why did you fall asleep and let the thieves break into my Lord's goods to steal the light and hide it under a bushel? Men, as a result, are walking in darkness; are stumbling and falling toward that awful pit of everlasting torture. Some may be rescued before the light has been far fetched; but others, the least fortunate, may not see the light until that great day of judgement.

The Scriptures tell us that when Christ was here men looked on him with their eyes and believed that he was Christ, but would not confess him because their friends were present. He said to them, "He that confesses me before men, him will I confess before My Father." In this event the confession was in naturalness. In this, the new dispensation, the order is changed inasmuch as Christ abides no longer on earth in flesh. His transactions now are through the spirit, consequently, natural belief, confession and trust must give way to supernatural. One must believe him in the spirit, confess him through the spirit, and trust him in the spirit.

BLAIR, Managing Proprietor Phone Franklin 2704 pointed out when he was about to ascend into Heaven that he would be with us no longer in the flesh, but would come to us in the spirit. His ascension did not dispense with the cardinal principles of confession, belief and trust; nor did it afford agreement of carnal minds with a heavenly or spiritual being. It merely brought about a transformation. Religious principles which had previously been settled by bodies in flesh must now be settled through the Spirit of God. It is not proper that sinners should make a confession for water baptism until they have received the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Acts 8:15-16; 10:44-47; 11:15-16. The gift of the Holy Ghost demands only that one lose himself to the things of the world and meet God in the spirit. As soon as one has thought strongly enough in a spiritual sense; has sorrowed to repentance, (at which time his heart is in a receptive mood); he is awarded the Holy Ghost. The award of the Holy Ghost is sensed by a supernatural change from a sorrowful to a joyful state; so be ye ever awake to witness this change and beware of the thieves who try to teach you otherwise, lest they keep away from you the light.

What reason? CHILDREN'S PAGE The "Children's Page" is one year old this week. It has an odd mixed feeling of being both young and old. It is young in the field of journalism—old in its teaching—the teaching of race pride. So many lads and lasses have admitted that they enjoy the writings of other lads and lasses; so many men and women have made known the fact that they wish that they had such a medium when they were young. The "Children's Page" is not a space filler in the Tribune, nor is it the gratifying of a whim of its editor to intrude upon the reading-public. It is the carrying out of a thoroughly worked out plan to give to the future editors, doctors, bakers and manufacturers an insight of what the race has done; knowing that inspiration can best be given Negro children through the accomplishment of our own people. LETTERS FROM OUR LITTLE FRIENDS Dear Editor: I guess you have almost forgotten me. But anyway I am writing again. I heard and saw the winner of the second prize in the Wesley Barry "School Days" essay contest—Thelma Lane. The teachers and Children of Garnet School were very proud of her. I am sending in the answers to the puzzles. I hope they are correct. SULUCA WINDER (Age 12) Dear Editor: To gain a high position in life one must have an education and ability and ambition to work. To get an education one must go to school regularly and finish the graded and high school courses. I intend to go through the graded, high and Normal training schools. Then get a good position and try to work myself up. This is my reason why I want to go back to school. Dear Editor: I want to say that Friday is my happiest day although it is said to be a bad-luck day. My lessons even seem easier because I think of the Tribune I will receive that evening. The first thing I do is to turn to the "Children's Page." How I enjoy reading it! First I notice the biblical verse. Then examine the puzzles, etc. Poetry is my favorite form of literature and every week I have the privilege to read poetry on this page. Race articles also interest me a great deal. I have been greatly benefited by them. Ever since I have been taking the Tribune I have been interested in the youngster's page. Whatever I can do for its improvement would please me very much. At any time I am willing to contribute to it to the best of my ability. CORNELIA JACKSON (Age 16) Dear Editor: I was very anxious to begin my studies again, for if one does not have an education it is hard to get along. Education is very important, especially for those who want to make something of themselves. I go to school to learn to make something of myself and also to learn to make my race worth being. To get a good education and to make myself worth while is my greatest ambition. To live and work for others and to write my name on the pages of history is my aim, so that long after I am gone, other little girls and boys may read, and be inspired to follow. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1922 I have read of many great Negro men and women who have left their footprints on the sands of time, and their lives have encouraged me to work hard and study hard, that I, too, might be a shining light to those who are in darkness. Education is light; ignorance is darkness and gloom. Without education no great work can be accomplished. If I go into a dark room I can only feel about and stumble around without getting anything done, but if I go into a lighted room I can see to do anything. Every little girl and boy should be proud of their opportunity to go to school and should not waste their time, but make up their mind to be something in this world. ZELDA A. CARTER (Age 12) Dear Editor: I think Afro-American should be applied to our race because we are Americans of African descent. Our ancestors may have been Africans but we were born of free parents who are citizens of the United States, therefore we have just as much right to be called Americans as the white boy or girl. Article fourteen, section one, of the Constitution says, "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law." The first line of the article says all persons born in the United States are citizens of the United States. All, means everybody, regardless of race or color, if they are born in the United States, they are citizens of the United States, therefore we, Afro-Americans are citizens of the United States just as well as anybody else. For the above reason I think that Afro-American is a good term for our race. LAWRENCE A. TRIMMER (Age 15) THE ENVELOPE CONTEST Below follows an announcement under the heading of "Eleventh Award." der the heading of "Eleventh Award." This award is the final contest in the Ten Dollar Awards and was made possible because in the Newsboy's Awards no contestants came forth. Thus a dollar of the original ten dollars was left to be disposed of. The conditions of each award was run two weeks. The "Eleventh Award" was only dated for one week, stating that the envelopes should be in this office by October 3rd when it should have stated October 10th as the date set for the close of this contest. Because many Tribunites phoned seeking to know why this change in policy, the error was brought to our notice and to give all the benefit of the doubt this contest has been extended to October 17th. You have a chance to win. Read the conditions and send in your envelope. If you have sent in one envelope you are not permitted to send in another. Those envelopes already received are being held for the final disposal of the contest. Is your name worth a dollar? Who knows? It may be. Sit down now and send in your envelope—and don't forget to seal it. No special ability counts in this contest—mere luck counts. ELEVENTH AWARD All the previous contests have been designed to be of interest to those Tribunites who had special abilities, such as drawing, writing poetry, stories, or essays, etc. This week the award will go to three of those who are lucky. The requirements are that you inclose your name, age, and address on a piece of paper in a sealed envelope. Do not write anything on the envelope but the following:"Envelope Contest," The Washington Tribune, 920 You Street, N. W., Washington, D. C. Mail or bring the envelope to this office by noon October 10th. Each envelope will be placed in a covered box on October 10th and shaken up. A person will be blindfolded, who will select three envelopes from the box. The person whose name is in the first envelope, thus selected, will receive the first prize, which is One Dollar in cash. The second envelope will contain the name of the winner of five theatre tickets as second prize. The third envelope will contain the name of the winner of the third prize of three theatre tickets. Send in your envelope. GERTRUDE'S ADVENTURES Mae Smith and Florence Evans called to see Gertrude on a warm and sultry Saturday afternoon. They were greeted with a cherry hello and being seated on the cool porch Katie made known the cause of their visit. "Gertie," she said, "you have not been to the association meeting for three weeks. Why? Well never mind, we know you've been rushed with your studies." "That is one reason," admitted Gertrude. "I am busy with my lessons and, too, I want to interest the Girl Reserves in a series of Negro history topics and I've neglected my own club meetings. But it is for a good cause." "My little sister told me of your plans," said Florence, "and knowing of them I am at a loss as to whether you can help us to carry out a plan suggested to the association. "You see," said Mae, "we want to give an entertainment in July and our studies will be over in time for us to give this affair a good deal of attention." "What kind of entertainment do you intend having?" asked Gertrude. "Purely racial," enthusiastically asserted Florence. "You see, here is an outline: we want each recitation to be the composition of some Negro, each song or musical rendition to be the work of some Negro." "Dandy! I'm in for that," was the happy interruption from Gertrude. "Let's see—" Three busy little tongues chattered as only carefree feminine tongues can. This chattering was out of the usual scheme of feminine chatter for at the end of an hour a clever program was arranged as follows: 1. Opening chorus, "Lift Every Voice and Sing"; words by James W. Johnson, music by Rosamond Johnson. 2. "Pledge of Afro-American Youth," written by Professor Kelly Miller. 3. Piano solos: a. "Magnolia." b. "In the Bottoms," both com-posed by R. Nathaniel Dett. 4. Jubilee songs arranged by Carl R. Diton: a. "Pilgrim's Song." b. "Little David, Play on Your Harp." c. "Ev'ry Time I Feel the Spirit." 5. Dunbar's poem, "When Sleep Comes Down to Soothe the Weary Eyes." 6. James Bland's song, "Carry Me Back to Ole Virginny." 7. James D. Carrothers' poem, "In the Matter of Two Men." 8. Mae Smith-Johnson's poem, "Grandmother." 9. DeKoven Thompson's song, "Love Comes But Once." 10. Harry T. Burleigh's spiritual, "Deep River." 11. A discourse on the song, "Dear Old Southland," followed by an open five-minute discussion on whether it is advisable to condemn Turner Layton for taking the tune of "Deep River" and arranging it for this song. "That's a fairly presentable program," commented Florence. "Indeed so," agreed Gertrude. "Speaking of the song, 'Dear Old Southland,'" said Mae, "reminds me of the other day when Flora Watson and I went into a music store to get a record. We asked to hear 'Deep River,' and while it was being played the white salesgirl began whistling 'Dear Old Southland.' "Flora said to the salesgirl, 'What are you whistling?' 'I'm whistling what the record is playing,' she answered with a surprised look on her face. "The name of the piece on the record is "Deep River," what you are whistling is "Dear Old Southland," informed Flora. "You should have seen the look of bewilderment on the salesgirl's face as she added: 'Don't you know I thought there was a resemblance and a difference [whatever she meant by a resemblance and a difference] in them. I've been thinking they were both the same—I'd never stopped to notice the fact that they were different pieces.' "Do you like them?' I asked. "Yes. They're both pretty.' "Have many sales for them?' I asked her. "Quite a few for "Dear Old Southland"; why do you ask?' asked the girl. "You may wrap those two records, I'll take them,' interrupted Flora. "Both of those selections are compositions of Negroes—', I answered. "Crash! went the records to the floor. The salesgirl grabbed an ear with each hand and murmured, 'Gosh, ain't that tough? Those are the last two of those records we have in stock.' "I was glad of this opportunity to let this girl know of at least one of the race's accomplishments," concluded Mae. "I know Flora was disappointed when she found she was to be deprived of those records," chirped Florence. "No," said Mae, "We decided to try to get two Black Swan records of the pieces but we had to hurry home. We'll try to get them at Adams' Music store Monday." "Well, we must be going," said Florence, "Let's get busy with carrying out the plans as outlined in our program." "All right, girls," said Gertrude, "you can depend on me." After a short period of feminine chatter Mae and Florence bid Gertrude adieu and sauntered towards their homes. Needless to say the girls made a success of the entertainment. [Note:—The above story might be used as an interesting study in the use of quotation marks.] A SAD TALE WITHOUT A NAME (By Ruth Waters, Age 13) Long ago when our forefathers were slaves there was a rich slave owner by the name of Stewart Brown. Among his slaves was a young girl whose name was Lucy. Lucy's complexion was a beautiful shade of brown, her eyes shone like live coals and her teeth were pearly white. On a neighboring plantation in a lonely log cabin lived a young man also a slave, who was called Tom. Tom was in love with Lucy and had planned to run away to Canada with her on a certain night. When the time came, Tom had everything ready and had hidden them in the woods nearby. He was to give the signal when the coast was clear. Tim who was the oldest son of Mr. Brown was suspicious of Tom and Lucy because he had seen them meet often when he was out walking. At midnight Lucy was awake and listening for Tom's signal. After anxious moments, which had seemed like hours, had passed, Lucy heard the hoot of an owl. Was that Tom's signal? Yes! Lucy assured herself because he had told her that the signal would be the imitation of the hoot of an owl. Assuring herself that it was Tom, Lucy stole silently out into the night. As she passed into the wood she cried softly, "Tom!!" "Yes" came the answer in soft tones. A dark figure came towards her. Instead of the greeting she expected, she was gripped roughly by the arm. Lucy began to struggle; but in vain. Cruel blows began to rain on her. The sneering voice of Tim came to her ears, "Trying to run away to Canada, eh? Well here's your Canada." He struck her across the face with his fist. Out of the darkness leaped another dark figure. This time Tom's voice was heard and not Tim's. "You hit her again. I jest dare you," cried Tom angrily. Before he could aim a blow he was gripped roughly and tied to a tree and beaten unmercifully. Tom died of his wounds. Lucy soon followed. She had suffered from grief and from the wounds inflicted by Tim. The leaves are now falling Into their deep, deep sleep, And mother tree is kissing Each fair little leaf. The little leaves now have, Very much to fear; For well they know that this Is the fall of the year. RUDOLPH SAUNDERS (Age 10) Thelma E. Lane, age 11, says, "We should not use the word 'nigger' be- cause well trained and well thinking children do not use it."

Harris, Age 16 John Brown, a martyr and Christ-like fighter for our cause (the freedom of the Negro) was born in Connecticut in 1800. He was a descendant of the Dutch, English and Celtic Peoples. From the Celts, he received his love of freedom; from the Dutch, his thrifty ways. When quite a boy, the Brown family moved to Kansas. There, John's fath. er dealt in cattle and John would often have to drive herds as far as a hundred miles to a purchaser. One day he took a herd to a buyer. He was treated royally, but in the house, there was a black boy about his age and size who was treated cruelly. John then wondered if God loved all people with one love. John Brown is first made prominent in a skirmish between the Missourians and the people of Kansas, when the people of both territories were trying to influence Kansas to enter the Union as a slave state or a free state. Again, at Harper's Ferry on the Shenandoah River, Brown conducted a raid against slave-holders. After the raid, he intended to flee to the mountains but his freed Negro slaves were trapped in the engine room of the arsenal. A trial was held and he was convicted of murder. This meant a sentence of death. The fatal day arrived. Brown went gave them each a quarter, saying that he had no more use for money. He climbed in the wagon beside the driver, and went to the scene of the scaffold. On the way he met a Negro woman with her babe. He bent down and kissed the child. Brown said that that kiss was better than all the hypocritical prayers any priest could offer him. John Brown was hanged in 1859. This being the anniversary week of the "Children's Page" and as so many pretty cards have been sent in expressing wishes for a long existence for the Page, the thought of organizing a Birthday Club came to us. This is the idea. Every Tribune is requested to send in his or her name, address, age, and birthday. The Saturday preceding your birth date, mention will be made of the fact on the Page. A pretty birthday card will be sent to you by the Editor on your birthday. If you see your friends' names listed in the birthday list, remember them and send them a pretty card. Forward your names at once. Address, Birthday Club, The Washington Tribune, 920 U St., N. W., Washington, D. C. Mary J. Phillips, Bricks, N. C.—You may instruct your brother to call at the office for your ticket awards as you suggest. We hope you will continue to show the interest in the Page you now show—Ed. THE HANDY GIRL Surprise mother with the following suggestion, or better, gather all left overs of sapioli, and other scouring soap in cake form and save them for further use. There are several ways this waste can be saved. One of them is to take the small pieces and place them in a cup or can and cover them with water. In a short time they will dissolve and form a paste that is even handier to use than the cake. Another way is to put them through the food grinder and grind them to powder. This will not hurt the grinder, and it will polish and sharpen the knives of the machine. Every Tribunite is urged to write the word "Negro" with a capital letter. Please remember this. 7 JOHN BROWN BIRTHDAY CLUB Note --- For Sale: Homes, Farms, Business Sites, Apartment Houses All Sections of the City Lowest Prices Best Terms Let Us Finance Your Deal For You MORTIMER M.

THE GLARING CONTRAST In no country in the world is race prejudice as rampant as it is in the United States of America, "the land of the free and home of the brave." In France it is very different. A cable from Paris Monday says: Paris, Oct. 8—Black, which was banned by the dressmakers for On August 31, news was flashed from Rochester, N. Y., that Margaret Cleas, a nurse in one of the hospitals there, had committed suicide by leaping from a bridge which crosss the Genesee River. Miss Cleas had supposed that she was a white person. When a young white man asked her to marry him and she told her mother, it is alleged that her mother told her that she ought not to marry this young man because her father was a Negro. Not having the courage to face the truth of her parentage, she committed suicide. American prejudice killed Miss Cleas. Negro blood in America is a stigma, a barrier. The Negro has been ostracized, Jim crowed and discriminated against until he is in too large a measure ashamed of himself. The lack of race pride is a fundamental weakness and must be eradicated before real racial progress can be made. Although we find black dishonored in democratic America, we find black as the criterion in France. At a meeting held at the residence of Miss. R. L. Clarke, Miss Alice C. Burnett, the national organizer of the Madam C. J. Walker Company, organized a Walker Union of local Walker agents. The following officers were elected: Miss R. L. Clarke, president; Mrs. Alberta Hammond, vicepresident; Mrs Maggie Young, secretary; Mrs. Alice Wooton, assistant secretary; Mrs. Carrie Evans, treasurer; Mrs. Fannie Wright, sergeant-at-arms; Mrs. Orrie Rector, chaplain.

A cable from Paris Monday says: Paris, Oct. 8-Black, which was banned by the dressmakers for winter models, has suddenly leaped into favor as a result of the defeat of Georges Carpentier by Battling Siki, the Senegalese fighter. Even black silk stockings are worn for the first time in years. While in obedience to the dressmakers' desperate efforts to sustain their edict for bright-colored gowns, dozen of mannikins appeared picturesquely clad at Longchamps this afternoon, the huge race crowd was garbed almost solely in funeral black. Blonde beauties are dyeing while a famed dancer created a sensation by appearing with her mass of bobbed hair carefully kinked. May the short-sighted color-prejudiced and race-hating white Christian American learn a lesson in "Christian democracy" from France; and the weak-kneed non-race-pride Negroes be inspired to the extent that they may realize their true worth and real value, and thus arouse the proper pride in themselves and demand its recognition by others.
