Advertising in Churches
Advertising is a real part of no phase of living that it has no for progress. When skillfully people which is possessed by no social life, and it may be so un agents of civilization.
There was a time and then where the church is the prime people. Thru it, all notices are Washington nor any modern or gregated. They all have their of the people are reached.
Therefore, it is archaic, irrit read from ten to thirty notices churches of our city, on Sunday counted twenty-eight notices When the clerk was thru, very notice was about.
Advertising has recahed the using notices in the churches to schemes at no cost to themselves made the medium or "market to the various wares to which the tion.
In a certain city, not far from pastor of which will not permit to be read, save those pertaining death notices. That church is paid and the church maintains an example goes to show that a pain hurt his church to forbid all church.
This church-notice advertisers lowers the dignity of the church.
Will not the progressive mind this matter in their conference to improve their Sunday service tising notices.
Advertising is a real part of modern life; there is almost no phase of living that it has not invaded. It is a great factor for progress. When skillfully applied, it has a power over people which is possessed by no other element of business or social life, and it may be so used as to be one of the great agents of civilization.
There was a time and there are yet some small places where the church is the principal medium of reaching the people. Thru it, all notices are read. Such is not the case in Washington nor any modern city where our people are congregated. They all have their own newspapers and thru them the people are reached.
Therefore, it is archaic, irritating and wasteful of time to read from ten to thirty notices at the regular services of the churches of our city, on Sunday. At one church recently, we counted twenty-eight notices read at the morning service. When the clerk was thru, very few could tell what the first notice was about.
Advertising has recahed the point where many people are using notices in the churches to "put over" their "drives" and schemes at no cost to themselves. The church should not be made the medium or "market place" of the city for parading the various wares to which the numberless notices call attention.
In a certain city, not far from Washington, is a church the pastor of which will not permit a notice of any description to be read, save those pertaining to affairs of the church and death notices. That church is prosperous. The pastor is well paid and the church maintains a paid financial secretary. This example goes to show that a pastor need not fear that it would hurt his church to forbid all notices save of his immediate church. This church-notice advertising cheapens the services and lowers the dignity of the church. Will not the progressive ministers of Washington take up this matter in their conferences and there decide once for all to improve their Sunday services by eliminating ALL advertising notices.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON LOCAL TOPICS
An interested reader of The Tribune, desiring to be up to the minute on all local questions, sent in a list of questions last week asked that they be answered. Since many of The Tribune's readers will possibly be interested in the answers to these questions, the Editor will answer them through these columns. Each question asked will be given and its answer right under it.
(Q) What is the status of the Butler Brothers Garage?
(A) The Butler Brothers Garage was sold at public auction after its confiscation by the Government and was purchased by Mr. John W. Lewis for the Butler brothers. Later, on advice of Mr. Butler, Mr. Lewis sold it, and it was purchased by the Union Storage Company.

(A) The donors of the reward filed an interpleader in the District Court to determine who the reward should go to. The case has not been finally settled.

(A) The Bethel Literary suspended during the summer months, but will be started again this winter. The first meeting will be Tuesday, November 7th.

TITLE CONTEST TO RUN FOUR WEEKS MORE
TITLE CONTEST TO RUN FOUR WEEKS MORE
The time for sending in titles in The Tribune's big Title Contest is growing shorter every week. There are now only four weeks remaining for those who may wish to compete. Interest in the big Howard-Lincoln game is growing every day. It will be the biggest game of the year, and a monster crowd is expected to attend, so why not attend at the expense of the Tribune? It involves no work at all and no obligation on anyone's part. Box seats and everything will be provided.
Just turn to page seven of his issue and study the cartoon then write down what you think would be a good title for it. Send your title to The Tribune office and who knows, you may win one of the two prizes offered. Don't delay, because in case two or more persons send in the winning title the first one received will be given the prize. Last year Dean D. O. W. Holmes of Howard University won first prize and Mrs. Myrtle A. Childs won the second. Who will be the winners? You can if you want to; so don't delay. Turn to page seven and read all the details and send in your title at once.
(Q) Why does not Dunbar High night school offer academic work?
(A) There is no academic work at Dunbar because the School Board has not assigned it any. The academic work in the night schools is given at Armstrong.
(Q) How are colored policemen appointed?
(A) Colored policemen file their applications, endorsed by three citizens, with the police board. There is no difference in the manner of selecting the colored and the white. All are required to pass a physical and mental examination. About one out of twenty-five pass the examinations.

Brooks Asphyxiated
SOUTHWEST PHYSICIAN FOUND IN ROOM UNCONSCIOUS. DIES IN EMERGENCY HOSPITAL
Dr. Phillip Brome Brooks was found unconscious, in a gas-filled room of his home, 306 3rd street southwest, on Wednesday morning about 11:30 by his house-keeper Miss Lydia G. McIlwain, when she went to the hope to perform her duties. She called Dr. W. A. Warfield and the emergency ambulance. The ambulance from Emergency arrived first and Doctor Brooks was carried to the hospital where he was pronounced dead at 12:20 noon, by Dr. Chas. H. Schultz. The news of Dr. Brooks' death spread rapidly throughout the southwest section of the city, casting a shadow of mourning over the people who knew and loved him. Dr. Brooks had performed an operation at Freedmen's Hospital Tuesday morning and had another one for Wednesday morning. He also had several labor cases on hand and was up until a late hour Tuesday night.
Miss McIlwain said when she arrived Wednesday morning, she noticed that the mail had not been carried into the house. The front door was locked. She went around to the side and climbed thru a window. Going to the doctor's room, on the second floor, the door was partly open from which she smelt gas. Entering the room, she saw the doctor lying in bed as if asleep. She called him but recieving no answer, she ran to him and shook him. He was yet warm and she called the ambulance.
On the table near the bed was a portion of an apple and three opened medical books, and there was an open book lying on the bed. The theory is that Dr. Brooks fell asleep, while reading by the gas light and the light was extinguished, either from the draft of the partly opened door or defective flow of gas. The Coroner signed a certificate of accidental death.
The funeral will be held this (Saturday) afternoon from the home of his sister, Mrs. Bertie B. Lewis, 509 Florida Avenue. It will be private and in charge of the Morning Star Lodge of Elks, No. 40, his favorite lodge. Dr. Brooks was a member of practically every secret order in the city. He was not a member of any church of the city but was a large and liberal contributor to many of them. Dr. Brooks leaves a father, Rev.
James Henry Brooks, ninety years old, two sisters, Mrs. Bertie B. Lewis of this city and Miss Mabel Brooks, who is teaching in the city schools of Wilmington, Delaware; a granddaughter, Grace Brooks Belt, 5, of Atlantic City, N. J.
Dr. Brooks was born in Washington September 28, 1865, having passed his 57th birthday a month ago. He was a member of the D. C. National Guard. He was commissioned Lieut. Surgeon in November, 1901. He graduated in Medicine at Howard University in 1889; and in Pharmacy from the same school in 1890. He also took a postgraduate course in New York University.
Befriended Many People
Betfrieded Many People Dr. Brooks enjoyed a large and lucrative practice. He was a big hearted man and in numerous cases attended people from whom he would not accept one cent of pay. When the question of advancing the price of visitation came up in the Medical Association of this city, Dr. Brooks was reluctant to raise his price. He attended numbers of labor cases and even called in assistance and paid the doctor out of his own pocket for assisting him. In other cases he was known to cut out and sew up clothes for a new born infant. He had great sympathy for the common people, and many a poor person has been befriended by Dr. Phillip Brooks.
Valuable Library
It is said that Dr. Brooks had the most extensive and most valuable library of any colored man in Washington. He had a rare collection of books and documents pertaining to colored people. Some of the letters cost as high as $50.00 each. He had some documents of Jeff Davis, written on wall paper. This library is valued at more than $15,000 and will probably go to some colored school in its entirety.
Dr. Brooks was a connoisseur of jewelry and collected dozens of pieces of rare settings of diamonds and other jewels. Another of his hobbies was fine dogs. He recently paid a thousand dollars for a fine blooded Russian wolf hound and two Irish wolf hounds. Dr. Brooks will be sadly missed by the people of southwest Washington, where he lived and practiced his profession.

AMERICAN WOODMEN HOLD TORCHLIGHT PAGEANT AND INDOOR CARNIVAL
On Tuesday, October 17, the American Woodmen of the District of Columbia, had a Torchlight Parade which covered the southwest section of the city, and an Indoor Carnival on the nights of the 17th, 18th, and 19th. The parade consisted of marching clubs, uniform rank companies, decorated floats for the children and decorated automobiles, and was escorted by a squad of policemen and the colored Boy Scouts. The torchlight feature made a brilliant spectacle of the parade.
The Carnival was a tremendous success and Supervisor Washington has been urged by many who attended it to have it repeated in the northwest section of the city.
On the last night, the carnival was visited by the Ladies Drill Corps of the National Ideal Benefit Society, under the command of Capt. C. H. Neal.

JAMES LANGHORN DIES SUDDENLY AT HIS HOME
Conducted Lunch Counter in O St. Market for 13 Years
WAS BORN IN VIRGINIA
Resided in the District of Columbia over 45 Years
Mr. James W. Langhorn of 781 Fairmont street northwest, died suddenly at his late residence last Tuesday evening about six o'clock from an attack of acute indigestion. Mr. Langhorn was well known in Washington having lived here ver forty years. He conducted a lunch counter in the O street Market. James W. Langhorn was born in Lynchburg, Va. Had he lived two more weeks, he would have celebrated his 60th birthday. He came to Washington when a young man and has lived here ever since. He married in 1900'. His wife, Mrs. Susan Langhorn came from Fauquier County, Virginia. Mr. Langhorn was a devoted husband and a successful business man. He successfully conducted his business in the O street Market for over 13 years and was well liked by all who came in touch with him.
He was a staunch christian. For a number of years he was a member of Vermont Avenue Baptist Church. He resigned from that church and with a group of friends, organized the Florida Avenue Baptist Church. He was one of its first Deacons and was chairman of the Deacon Board and remained an active member to his death. However, during the recent troubles in that church, he aligned himself against the pastor, Rev. Taylor, and as the case went to court for final settlement, and is as yet unsettled, Mr. Langhorn was not active with the group that retained control of the church's affairs; but up to his death he waged an active fight to have harmony restored in the church. He is survived by his wife, mother, sister and a number of relatives.
Funeral services were held Friday morning at Lincoln Temple Congregational Church. Rev. Cheatham had charge of the services assisted by Rev. Smith and Rev. Carroll. Interment in Harmony Cemetery.

Mr. Cunningham's lecture was very much worth while, its theme was: "Foods, their relative values and their proper preparation to secure the maximum value in terms of energy." Mrs. Cunningham clearly showed the superiority of aluminum cooking utensils over granite, iron, and the ordinary cooking utensils that crack, break, and comparatively speaking, rapidly become unservicable and unsanitary because of the difficulty with which they can be kept clean.
After the lecture and demonstration, refreshments were served. Everyone enjoyed and appreciated the effort on the part of Mrs. Brown to provide an evening of practical and pleasant entertainment.

LINCOLN LIONS SMASH MORGAN
f COLLEGE
Lincoln University, Pa., Oct 28—
Game by game the Quaker State
“Lions” grow stronger and stronger.
Last Saturday fans from Philadelphia
Baltimore and nearby towns motored
out to witnes sa great grid feast. Hus-
ky lads from Morgan College, fresh
from a game well fought against
Hampton, invaded Rendall Field full
of tall hopes only to be buried beneath
eight touchdowns, one safety and a
couple ‘of extras at goal totaling 52
to 0. ~
The visitors produced but one
threatening incident, ‘This came in
the first quarter when the Maryland-
ers, in the center of the field twenty
yards from goal, attemped a drop
kick. The pigskin rose beautifully
and clear, only to smite the crossbar
of the goal posts and bound back into
the field. Straight-football was played
throughout the game. Spectacular
starring was absent on both sides.
However, two stellar ends, Lancaster
and Skinker, sacked as many of the
forward passes as the cool-headed
quarterback McLean would’ throw.
Coach Law, after seeing that the
Marylanders had no chance at scoring
ceased score-filing ‘and began whole-
sale substitutions in an effort to de-
termine the best combination of play-
ers. Although the Lions had an easy
victory they sustained a heavy los
‘through the injury of big L. L. Carter,
whose arm was fractured in the first
‘quarter.
The final score was: Lincoln Uni-
versity 52; Morgan College, 0.

received a rude jolt, and had to be
perfectly content with a goal from
the field which was made early in the
second period, resulting from a beau-
tiful drop kick by Gunn from St.
Paul's thirty-one-yard line.
‘Though defeated St. Paul was not
outplayed. The Orange and Black
boys under the generalship of Walker,
who played a sensational game at
quarterback, launched a slashing, vari.
egated and bewildering attack against
the stabbing and dazzling attack of
the visitors. Cuffee and Colins’ of-
fensive and defensive work was at
times a nightmare to the Hampton-
ians. Maddux, Byrd, Coleman, Bur-
rell, Vaughn, Blackwell, Miller, and
Pierce played consistently.
Hampton payed a great game and a
hard’ game from the beginning of the
fray to the referee's final whistle.
Dabney proved himself an excellent
general and without question played
his best game, Deane was the only
Hampton man who could gain con,
sistently. T. T. Coleman, James
Jones, A. Ruffin, and “Red” Dabney
were the outstanding figures in the
Hampton outfit.
St. Paul completed 6 out of nine
forward passes. Hampton completed
2 out of 6. Hampton is credited with
9 first down’s to St. Paul’s eleven.
‘The game exhibited clean sportsman:

ATLANTA UNIVERSITY WINS
THIRD GAME OF SEASON
. @By- Cannon Ball)
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 21,—Atlanta Uni-
versity moved one notch higher in
the race for the mythical title of
Champions of the South by decisively
defeating Paine College 30-0, in a
game in which the all around superior
play of the University boys was the
feature. The University boys pounce.
ed upon their much heralded oppon-
ents like veritable tigers and at no
stage of the game did Paine have a
chance to score. In fact, she was only
able to penetrate the highly developed
defense of Coach ‘Aiken for four
first downs without the aid of penal
ties, and her four added to one by
two other opponents—Knox and
SHaines—shows, just how strong, the
wall of 0. ju just now:
Atlanta scored nine points in the
first half and tiventy one in the second.

MOST PROGRESSIVE NEGRO WOMAN IN WASHINGTON
Tribunites Hail Miss Nannie H. Burroughs as Their Ideal
In our history questions for October 14, one question was: "Who do you think is the most progressive Negro woman in Washington, and why?"
All the Tribunites sent in the name of Miss Nannie H. Burroughs.
Here are just a few of the statements sent in. These statements were selected at random. Room will not permit publishing all, nor would it have been fair to select any special ones.
C. Priscilla Shorter, age 13: "Miss Nannie Burroughs is the most progressive Negro woman in Washington. She has established a training school for Negro women and girls. She also organized the Sun, Light Laundry." Lawrence A. Trimmer, (age?): "I think Miss Nannie Burroughs is the most progressive Negro woman in Washington. She has built a training school to train our girls." Janet Watson, age 15: "Miss Nannie Burroughs is another Booker T. Washington. She teaches one to train the hands as well as to train the head. Miss Burroughs is a great woman and we should say so while she is living."
Cornelia Jackson, age 16: "My rea- son for thinking that Miss Nannie Burroughs is our most progressive woman is because she is interested in the welfare of others. If she was selfish the National Training School in Lincoln Heights, D. C., would have never been established. Progress comes by thinking of others."
Edith B. Morrison, age 12: "I think Miss Nannie Burroughs is the most progressive Negro woman in Washington because she has done more towards the advancement of Negroes than any other woman in Washington. Miss Burroughs through her own efforts obtained money to build the 'National Training School for Girls' at Lincoln Heights. The school will accommodate more than one hundred girls and there are several buildings on the grounds which are used as workshops. Miss Burroughs has recently built a steam laundry where the girls may work and help to pay their way through school. It would be hard to find a more progressive woman." Robert T. Weyman, age 15: "My choice is Miss Nannie Burroughs. She is great because she attempts things

Boys and girls, Miss Burroughs' skin is not white. She has had to struggle through hard and difficult lessons, she had to feel the sting of being a Negro, she had her hardships. If Miss Burroughs succeeded to the point at which she now is—so can you succeed.
Be proud of yourself, your family, and of your race.
POETS' CORNER
A new young poetess comes to us, one not known. She brings a message deep and strong and free from the snobbery of conventionality. True poetry is truth, conventionality is not always truth. "Empty Arms" is a poem which is bound to touch the undercurrent of feminine nature. We bow to Miss Lillie M. Daugherty, of this city.
Empty Arms
I gave honor to a mother,
Old and gray she sat and sighed;
Her children no longer with her,
For they roamed the world so wide.
Her arms were weak and withered,
But why should she fret or care?—
For what are arms, but to hold a
babe—
And hers were empty and bare!
Sympathy I gave a mother—
She was left alone and sad,
God called to Him her children,
A few years of life they had.
Her arms were listless and weary,
Upon them her head did bow,
For what are arms, but to hold a
I gave pity to the woman,
Her long turned to despair,
Her plea for children unanswered,
No pains of travail to bear.
Her arms were open and willing
Fond mother-love lingers still
For what are arms, but to hold a
babe—
Hers were empty 'gainst her will!
Before from the womb it past.
Her arms were so strong and rounded,
But no beauty remained there,
For what are arms, but to hold a babe,
And hers more than empty were!

The Careless Walker
The careless walker roams the street
Not knowing just what he may meet,
Content to follow his dear feet,
Wherever they may take him.
Until he meets a moving car
That gives him a terrific jar,
By hurling him 'bout ten feet far,
Then nothing here can wake him.
Sometimes perusing a new book,
He often does forget to look
Before he makes the risky crook,
When going 'round the corner.
"An accident" a voice does cry,
Then someone asks, "Oh! will he die?"
Says the police who's standing by,
"I think he is a goner."
But frequently it is great haste
That causes him to be erased,
Or in some large asylum placed
For medical attention.
And so the doctors work on him,
Repairing every broken limb
Until he is again in trim,
Throughout his whole dimension.
The prudent walker knows it's wise,
When crossing streets to use his eyes,
And so he does not jeopardize,
The one life he possesses.
Thus, seldom does he get a chance
For free rides in an ambulance
As do its daily occupants,
And this he oft' confesses.
Unless you have a life to spare,
It's best to exercise some care,
When you are walking anywhere,
For life is an adventure.
For life is transitory.
Folks, use your eyes and use your ears
Whenever traffic closely nears,
Then you may live a few more years,
Before you go to Glory.

THE POWER OF THE SILENT VOTE
The result of elections, it has often been truly sald, 18 CC
cided by the men who stay at home and refuse to take the
trouble to vote. This silent vote is going to be a big factor in
the election of the 7th of November.
There is practically no difference between the two big
parties which are before the American voter today. There is
not a single constructive proposition offered by either party
worthy of serious consideration, therefore, apathy reigns over
the country, save in a few spots where local interests have
been injected into political affairs.
No President over polled half of the votes of the men who
were eligible to vote. When Washington was first elected |
he received only 5,930 votes in Pennsylvania, altho at that
time there were 86,000 men that might have voted. One can
readily see that the 6,000 men that did vote, controlled the
election while the 80,000 that did not vote, might have
swamped those that did and have turned the election.
The Negro is forced to remain out of the elections in prac-
tically all of the Southern states of this great democratic
America, notwithstanding, the fact that he is in the majority
in population in three states and from fifty to ninéty per cent
in several others. How many of the present Representatives
and Senators of the Southern states would not be in Con-
gress now if this silent(vote of the Negro could be cast? How
many Negroes would be honorably representing their silent
group if ‘the Federal officials would simply measure up to
their oaths and enforce the enfranchisement amendment to the
Constitution with the same earnestness that they put behind
the enforcement of the prohibition amendment? This govern-
ment is not a free government as long as it forces millions of
its most loyal citizens to remain silent on national election
days. No President has fully kept his oath who sits supinely
by and permits one half of the population of the Southern
states to be forced into silence on national election days when
United States Representatives and Senators are being
voted for to represent and legislate not merely for those States,
but for the entire nation.
This silent vote must be recognized and efforts made to
bring it to the polls. America cannot boast of her freedom
and democracy as long as she forces 12,000,000 of her citi-
zens into absolute silence on elections days and forces them
into action on tax paying days. The contrast is too glaring
and no President should ever proclaim himself a Christian
who permits such outrageous, un-Christian, un-American and
un-demoeratie practices to become common usage—defying
the Constitution and its Amendments.
The Declaration in Independence of America was based
on the great principle that “Taxation without representation
is tyranny,” and yet, the great party of Abraham Lincoln,
now controling the country, allies itself with the “lily white”
rebels of the South and sanctions their forcing millions of
native citizens of that section into abject silence on the very
day that a citizen is expected tb demonstrate his loyalty to his
country thru the exercise of the franchise.
There have been statesmen—including the late Theodore
Roosevelt—who have held that it showed a lack of patriotism
for a citizen to fail to exercise the right of franchise especially
in national elections. What then shall we say of those who—
by force and fraud—prevent citizens from exercising their
suffrage, or who by inaction connive at or permit such de-
privation? :
Every Representative and Senator from the Southern
States, where’ the Negro is fifty, per cent of the population,
should be enjoined from taking his seat in the forth-coming
68th Congress; for he will not be elected by the majority,
when that majority is forced to remain silent. Will the Equal
Rights League, the National Race Congress or the N. A; A. C.
P. take up this question and push it to a decision by the Su-
preme Court?
Persons who may appreciate beautiful and lofty sentiments
expressed in poetical form should not fail to look over the
Children’s Page from week to week. They will there find,
especially in the Poet’s corner, much that is pleasing and in-
spiring.
They will no doubt be surprised also, and gratified, to ob-
serve that many of our young pepole are giving great promise
of-honor and glory for our race to come through their future
literary accomplishments. '
There is no work in which THE TRIBUNE is engaged in
, which it takes more pride and pleasure than in giving, through
this Page, opportunity and encouragement to the coming
“poets, priests and prophets” of our race.
