LINCOLN "LIONS" VICTORS BEFORE BRILLIANT CROWD
By H. Scott.
Thankgiving Day, 1922:—Washington was today invaded by the great htrong of football fans which journeys every other year to see Lincoln and Howard clash at the American League park for the football supremacy.
A host of 12,000 rabid enthusiasts were thrilled by one of the most exhilrating and exciting struggles ever witnessed on our field, and this vast mob saw Lincoln conquer Howard for the second consecutive time in their annual classic by the score of 13 to 12. Failure to score in either of the "tries for points," lost the game for Howard.
There were many heroes in this battle. Byrd, a substitute, by virtue of his long sprint of 76 yards from scrimmage for the first score of the game should be mentioned first. McLean, the clever little field general of the Lions, was another star. Besides leading his team faultlessly he contributed many runs through the Howard defense, one of which was for 20 yards and a touchdown. But it was the Lincoln line that saved the day. Captain Coston, Morgan, Diggs, Lancaster, Skinker and we might name them all for each man on the line was a stone wall when the locals threatened.
Doneghey, the local's brilliant half-back, sootd out as the best ground-gaining back on the field. It was no unusual thing for him to rip off 1 to 25 yards and put his team in a scoring position. Contee and Melton played stellar defensive games. Howard's line was also strong. Captain Williams and Brooks, standing out.
For the first time this season the locals uncovered a formidable open game. And had they opened up a little earlier in the game a different story might be told.
Howard outranked Lincoln but the scoring punch was lacking. The kicking game was about even. Both elevens worked the aerial attack with telling success. Coach Morrison of Howard made no substitutions during the entire game.
LINCOLN GIVEN RANK AS CLASS "A" COLLEGE
The Dean pointed out that the significance of this action is that credits and degrees from the institution will be recognized as on a par with those of Columbia, University of Pennsylvania and Princeton, the leading institutions of the country.
LAW SCHOOL TO MOVE INTO NEW QUARTERS
The law school of Howard University will move into its regular quarters at 420 Fifth St., N. W., Monday evening. During the remodeling of the law school building, all law classes have been meeting "on the hill" so far this year. Over $20,000 worth of repairs have been paced on the old building, making it one of the most modern and complete buildings in the city.
Appropriate exercises will be held Monday evening in celebrating the opening of the new building. Hon. Martin B. Madden, member of Congress from Illinois will deliver the principal address. Other speakers will be Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of the University; President J. Stanley Durkee, Prof. James A. Cobb, and Mr. Justice Fenton W. Booth of the U. S. Court of Claims, who as dean, will preside.
The building will be open at six o'clock for the inspection of all who desire to pass through and see the increased facilities.
WOUNDED SOLDIER CAUSES STIR IN U. S. SENATE
N. A. A. C. P. SAVES BOY FROM THE CHAIN GANG
The local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, thru the efforts of its energetic secretary, Shelby J. Davidson, has become a haven for colored youths from Southern states who find themselves in Washington without friends. Galveston Lewis, of Tarboro, N. C., was recently picked up here by the Travelers Aid, to whom he had applied for assistance in returning home, and placed in the House of Detention. Mr. Davidson was called into the case thru the Juvenile Court. It was learned that young Lewis had committed some minor offense in Tarboro and was bound out by the Juvenile Court there to an intolerant man. Young Lewis ran away to New York, becoming home sick he reached Washington on his return home. His money gave out here, therefore he applied to the Travelers' Aid.
Upon investigation, Mr. Davidson was informed that if young Lewis returned to Tarboro, he would be placed on the chain gang. Mr. Davidson laid these facts before Judge Sellers of the Juvenile Court and the court turned young Lewis over to the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., to be responsible for his care, keeping and schooling.
LIBERIAN LOAN KILLED IN SENATE
The Liberian Loan of $5,000,000, negotiations for which began during the Wilson administration, was practically killed Monday, in the Senate, when Senator Simmons of North Carolina, moved to have the bill recommitted to the Finance Committee of the Senate. This motion passed by a vote of 42 for it and 33 against it. Republican Senators voted with the Democrats for recommittal.
Among the senators voting for recommittal were several prominent administration Senators. Their voting with the Democrats conveys the impression that the administration was really against the granting of this loan. Republicans voting this way were: Senators Cameron, Ariz.; Capper, Kans.; Fernald, Me.; Harreld Okla.; Jones, Wash.; Ladd, N. Dak.; LaFollette, Wis.; McNary, Ore.; Nicholson, Colo.; Poindexter, Wash.; Sutherland, W. Va.; and Watson of Ind.

N U. S. SENATE
The Senate came near being thrown into a panic last Monday when Lucius Jones, a shell-shocked veteran of the World War, arose in the gallery during Senator Hitchcock's speech and said: "Mr. President, may I interrupt the Senator a moment." When the war veteran spoke, the eyes of the whole gallery and senate floor turned toward him; however, Senator Hitchcock, who had the Senate floor, continued speaking and made no reference to the interruption. A doorkeeper went to Jones and informed him that he could not interrupt the proceedings of the Senate. Jones then took his seat and remained in the gallery until Senator Hitchcock had finished speaking.
As soon as the Senator had finished Tom Heflin, the rabid Senator from Alabama, arose and began a tirade against what he termed "the nigger in the gallery." Heflin, in all his Southern dialect and manners, demanded that the wounded soldier be immediately ejected from the gallery. The only reason he could advance for the ejection of Jones was that white men and women had been ejected in days gone by for interruption of the Senate's proceedings. However, the Senator's desires were not fulfilled because the soldier became insulted at the remarks of the "swell dressed" Senator from Alabama and left the gallery of his own accord.
Senator Curtis of Kansas came to the defense of the soldier and stated that it was through ignorance of the Senate's rules that Jones had made the mistake, and he was supported by Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska who had the floor and speaking when Jones interrupted. Senator Hitchcock stated: "So far as I am personally concerned, I hope he will not be interfered with or reflected on." Heflin stated that he thought the interference was through impudence and of course being a Southerner, he wanted to punish what is termed in the South, "an impudent nigger."
After Senator Hitchcock's remarks, Heflin blurted out that "if we are going to eject white women from the gallery when they seek to interrupt a Senator on the floor and white men are to be ejected, why shall a nigger be permitted to do the same thing and then remain unmolested in the gallery?" At this point Senator Reed of Pennsylvania, a former officer overseas, informed the dressed up Senator from Alabama that, "the man against whom the Senator is protesting is a wounded colored soldier." However, the Alabamian stated: "I do not care how many uniforms he has on; and continued to insist on the removal of the soldier.
When Heflin figured he had said enough to earn him a few more votes from the Ku Klux Klan and other such organization in his state at the next election, his tempest subsided and the Senate went merrily on
Mr. Jones later stated that the question which he desired to ask Senator Hitchcock was whether the Senator did not think that Negro women in the United States should be protected from the same sort of outrages to which the Senator was referring in his speech about conditions in Germany while he was answering a speech made by George Clemenceau of France.

To the Editor:
Dear Sir: It is dangerous for an individual to lose sight of his goal. It is calamitous for an institution to do so. And yet individuals and institutions will do this very thing. Howard University offers no exception. When she went into the dancing business she veered from the straight path of dginity and respectability and thus established an unenviable precedent among American universities.

But that is not all. Eager to advance her dance-hall programme, she has committed the offense of misrepresentation. She has advertised as patrons of her dance, people who not only did not give their consent to such a use of their names, but who are unalterably opposed to this innovation at Howard.
She has also, advertised as patrons of her dance, people who are busily engaged in promoting another dance, which is to be given at the same time. And the worst of all, Howard University has advertised as patrons of her dance, people who have religious scruples against dancing.

SAFETY EveryDay in the Year
Have you ever stopped to think of the great responsibilities placed upon the operator of a street car?
His car weighs anywhere from 15 to 30 tons; he cannot change his course by swerving to one side or another; he must make fairly good speed, as his passengers are all anxious to "get there."
He must be intelligent, physically fit, alert, and always on the job.
He should be well paid, happy and contented in his work.
Under such conditions, given safe equipment, he becomes a great contributor to the safety of the streets.
We are very proud of our motormen and conductors, in fact, of all our employes, and we respectfully ask our patrons to co-operate with them in every way possible.
By this means accidents will be prevented and the service improved.

disregard of their felings and convictions.
Dear Sir: Your article in the last issue "Attempts to Justify White Supremacy" (I am quoting from memory), was unfair to the man who came uptown on invitation and repeated an address against a powerful and avowed enemy to colored people. His address was not an attempt to justify white supremacy. I listened to him carefully and with some amusement at his concern lest his auditors take offense. Of course he believes in white supremacy, being a white man. If we were "supreme" we would believe in colored supremacy, and I personally believe it is coming, thru the yellow men's efforts.
But to return to our muttons. This man friend did not have to come up to repeat his lecture against the Ku Klux, and he had nothing to gain. He asks nothing from us and does not want us in his church. He had struck a blow against an enemy and was invited to tell us about what he had said. So why knock him even by implication? The Lord knows there are enough who deserve knocks, but why hammer this friend, when we need friends, white friends, when we will
admit it. When a man goes out of his way to do us even a small favor why not appreciate it, or if not, let him be.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNESATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1922
Men's Day at Bsbury
With that steady growth which results from its interesting programs and its inspiring services, the last Men's Day program at Asbury, M. E. Church was a wonderful success. Prof. R. W. Johnson, director of the Male Chorus of the church, demonstrated his spirit of cooperation and capacity for leadership by adding in music, an inspirational reinforcement of the outstanding features of the programme. Mrs. E. V. Jarvis, former organist of the church, had the unique distinction of being the only woman acting in an official capacity. She was accompanist for the musical program. Palms and chrysanthemums decorated the church and thus showed that special preparations had been made for the services.
At the morning services, Rev. J. U. King, the pastor who has already become beloved among the members of Asbury, sounded the key note for the Men's Day when he preached his sermon on "Strong Men." Rev. King was outspoken in his praise of the splendid contributions made by the Men's Club.
The program for the day was as follows:
At the eleven o'clock services there was a series of musical selections by the Male Chorus, with prayer by Rev. Mr. E. S. Green and the sermon by the pastor, Rev. Dr. J. U. King
At the afternoon services, 3:30 p.m. the musical program of the Male Chorus was varied with a solo by Mr. Perry S. Hall and a cornet solo by Mr. W. C. Chase. Mr. M. T. Parker introduced the Master of Ceremonies and Dr. W. H. Jackson introduced the speaker of the evening, Prof. Neval H. Thomas, who delivered a masterly address on "The Slave Soul, the Only Bond of the Slave." Mr. W. T. Nolan sang a vocal solo and Mr. Allen Sprague closed with a violin rendition which was ringing through the ears as the meeting ended.
At the evening services, 6:30 p.m., Attorney S. L. McLauren opened with prayer. Mr. Herbert A. Green read the scripture lesson, Mr. Leonard H. B. Foote made clear the general scope of the evening exercise, "What Christ means to Me." John 3:16.
The music was supplied by the Male Chorus with the additional attraction given by Mr. Forrest Carroll, vocal solo, and Mr. Lindsey on the cornet. The Metropolitan Quartette added the spice of competition to the occasion in their perfect harmony in which Messrs. Johnson, White, James and Smith are so practiced.
Attorney John W. Love spoke on, "Man As a Christian," to the benefit of all present. Mr. George Willis was most pleasing and impressvie in a recitation with theme in keeping with the occasion.
At 8 p.m. the Rev. J.U. King opened with prayer. Mr. William Williams, P. A. Roy, Mr. Wesley Waters supplied the musical numbers. Prof. Eugene Clark spoke on "Fellowship," and Dr. T. E. Jones acted as Master of Ceremonies.
President A. W. Dangerfield received much deserved praise and many congratulations for the general spiritual and financial benefit derived from the occasion.
NEGRO YEAR BOOK ON SALE
The 1921-1922 "Negro Year Book," is now ready for distribution. In this sixth annual edition not only has much new material been added, but the information contained in previous volumes has been revised, rewritten and brought down to date. Over one hundred pages are devoted to a review of the events of 1919-1921 as they effect the interests and show the progress which, in the Reconstruction Period since the close of the World War, the Negro is making.
"The Negro Year Book" is the standard work of reference on all matters relating to the Negro and is the most extensively used compendium of information on this subject. It circulates widely in every part of the United States and to a considerable extent in Canada, the West Indies, Central America, South America, Europe, Asia and Africa.
The success of previous years has demonstrated that there is need for a book which provides in an inexpensive form a succinct, comprehensive and impartial review of the events which affect the interests and indicate the progress the Negroes are making: "The Negro Year Book" meets this need and at the same time furnishes a compact but comprehensive statement of Historical and Statistical facts arranged for ready reference. It is at once a permanent record of current events, an encyclopedia of historical and sociological facts, a directory of persons, and a bibliographical guide to the literature of the subjects discussed.
"The Negro Year Book" has the most extended and comprehensive bibliography which has been put out on the Negro in the United States. In addition to the topically arranged bibliographies at the end of the book, the reader will find throughout the volume, in connection with special topics, further references to the sub-
jects discussed. This is helpful to the student who wishes to pursue further the investigation of any particular subject. The 1921-1922 "Negro Year Book," in addition to its interest for the general reader, is even more than the previous volumes especially adapted for use in schools where historical and sociological courses on the Negro are given.

NEGRO LAUNDRY WORKERS OF WASHINGTON D.C.
With the advent of the steam laundry 40 years ago, began the gradual passing of the picturesque Negro washerwoman, arrayed in gingham apron, delivering the family wash. For a century or more the washing in certain sections of the country was done by colored people. The Department of Labor, through Phil H. Brown Commissioner of Conciliation, instituted a survey to ascertain to what extent Negroes were still employed in the laundry industry. Washington, D. C., was selected as a typical city for the investigation, and the result indicates that 64.4 per cent of a total of 1,549 workers of both colors and sexes, engaged in the laundry business in Washington, D. C., are Negroes. This does not include Chinese and hand laundries; only those plants employing machinery. This per cent is based on a total of 551 white and 998 colored workers, who are further divisible into 268 white males, 223 colored males, 282 white females, and 776 colored females, the colored males and females forming, respectively,

GENERAL ALUMNI ASSOCIATION OF HOWARD UNIVERSITY
Takes far-reaching and historic step Elects Dr. W. A. Sniclair of Philadelphia its Executive Secretary to organize the Alumni throughout the nation.
The following letter was delivered to President Durkee, of their action by a committee of seven members: Dear Mr. President:
The General Alumni Association of Howard University has for a number of years felt the need of a well organized national body of Howard Alumni, in order to promote good fellowship, to advocate the interest of, and to give active support to Howard University.
It therefore empowered its executive committee to formulate and execute, at as early a date as possible, such plans as the committee thinks necessary for the attainment of the desired end. In keeping with the expressed policy and definite instruction of the general alumni body, the executive committee, on the 17th, inst. unanimously elected Dr. W. A. Sinclair its choice for Executive General Secretary, and take this occasion to notify you of its action. Hoping for active cooperation, we are most respectfully.
SIGNED BY COMMITTEE.
The General Alumni Association
pledges itself and invites the hearty
cooperation and active support of
every Howard man and woman, and
Howard friend to the following
Constructive Program:
1. A General Alumni Association of potential and dynamic power.
2. Members on the Board of Trustees nominated by the General Alumni Association.
3. Erection of a Stadium.
4. Increased Scholarship Funds.
5. Energetic support for the $500,000 Medical Endowment Fund.
6. Enthusiastic support of the "Drive' in behalf of the Theological Department.
7. A new modern Dental Building completely equipped, an immediate necessity.
8. Erection of Gymnasium.
This certainly means business. It shows that Howard Alumni are aroused, and henceforth they will share, not only in the management, control and policy of the University, but also contribute to its future development.
No longer shall Howard graduates be treated as children or outcasts, but will come into their own and have a voice in the affairs of Howard University.
The Alumni of all the great white institutions of learning, have a controlling voice in the destiny of their Alma Mater. And after more than fifty years of development there is no reason why the graduates of Howard University should not enjoy to the fullest extent identical privileges, prerogative and functions.
A New Howard is Surely in the Making
The General Alumni Association of Howard University will give a banquet to all Howard graduates, men, women and their friends, at the Whitelaw Hotel on Wednesday evening, November 29, at 9 o'clock, at one dollar per plate.

ARMSTRONG CONQUERS
DUNBAR
Armstrong's undefeated football team acquired an undisputed claim to the local high school football championship by defeating Dunbar 6 to 0 at American League Park Monday. The game played before 1500 spectators, was replete with thrills and it appeared for a half that the game would end in a scoreless tie.
Dunbar resorted to a kicking game for three quarters and advanced far into Tech's territory on more than one occasion. The Manual Tainers always held when heir goal was threatened. Twice Starnes was unsuccessful in field goal attempts.
The break of the game that resulted in the only score came in the third period after an exchange of kicks had placed the ball in Dunbar's possession on her 32-yard line. Chloe's low punt

MOREHOUSE DEFEATS KNOXVILLE COLLEGE
Knoxville, Tenn.—Last Friday before the largest crowd ever witnessing an athletic contest on the Knoxville College Ahtletic field, Morehouse College of Atlanta, Ga., easily defeated Knoxville College 25 to 0.
It could be plainly seen that after the first quarter Coach Harvey was not taking any chances with injuries. The Tigers have now cleared the last obstacle from their path before the Thanksgiving game with Fisk at Atlanta, Ga.
For Morehouse it is hard to pick stars as every man did his part and the team showed a smoothness of team work which forebodes all for the Fiskitexs in the Turkey-day game. For the losers Capt. Robinson and Kennedy did Herculean work to keep the score down.

The team play of both elevens was good although many fumbles and poor kicking marred the clash. The playing of both lines stood out. Few consistent gains were made by the backs, although a couple of spectacular dashes were made. Lacy intercepted a Dunbar pass and raced 86 yards in the last minutes of play and was brought down 4 yards from goal.

Storer College journeyed to Manassas Industrial School last Saturday and defeated the home team 45 to 0. The game was a fair, clean exhibition and the Manassas coach was greatly gratified by the showing made against the yellow jackets from West Virginia. Beginning with the second half the second team was sent in but because of breaks against them the Capt. thought best to return Frazier, Cannaday and himself in order to keep Manassas white washed.

Mitchell was Shaw's mainstay, while he intercepted a forward pass on his 3-yard line and was thrown by Byrd and Parker for a safety in the first period, he redeemed himself on the early part of the fourth act when, having failed on three previous attempts, he shot the ball over the cross-bar for the score which gave his team the winning point from the locals' 23-yard line.

Coach Morrison's Last Year as Coach
As quiet as it is kept, a rumor is going the rounds that this is Dr. Eddie Morrison's last year as Athletic Director and Coach at Howard. Whether or not the able mentor has had enough of coaching could not be learned but it has been pointed out that instructing at the Howard Dental Infirmary and practicing dentistry in the city leaves too little of his time for coaching.
It has also been whispered that certain former Howard stars are not altogether satisfied with Morrison's methods. In fact, certain tactics of his have provoked severe criticism of him by the public. The result of the Thanksgiving Day game may determine whether or not Morrison will continue on the "Hill."
During Coach Morrison's three years Howard's team has met with but two defeats on the Gridiron. baseball teams have been fairly successful, while a Howard relay team of 1921 won big honors at the Penn Relays. Should Coach Morrison go, a field of

Some of the paragraphs noted on
the circulars distributed by the As-

Of the 260 colored children reported
to the organiation last year, forty-
eight were delinquent girls, thirty-
seven delinquent boys, while the re-
maining number were children in
grave danger of becomig delinquent.
In 96 percent of the cases court
action was averted by: Correcting phy:
sical defects; making school adjust-
ments; furnishing better recreation;
connecting the child with his church;
securing big brothers and big sisters.
It costs less to supervise a child in
his own home for one year. than to
keep him for ten days in a reform
school.
Give us your support and so help
us to make into happy and useful

help, will come to certain shipwreck.

specializing in the prevention of de

LETTERS FROM OUR LITTLE
FRIENDS
Nov. 20, 1922.
Dear Editor: A few days ago my
‘aunt who lives in Washington, D. C.,
sent me two copies of the Washington
Tribune so my mother could read of
the death of Dr. Brooks.
I also read the other topics and
parts of the paper and it simply
thrilled me to learn of the great pro-
gress my race, the Black Race, is
making to which I am so proud to
belong.
T have lived here in Du Bois nearly
all my life and have not had the op-
portunity to be among the people of
my race, as there are only five colored
families here. Those who have the
privilege to be among their own kind
should be proud and make the best of
these opportunities.
I was born in Washington, June 6,
1906, but have only lived there two
months. My parents moved.to Elkins,
‘West Virginia later to Du Bois where
he have lived ever since. I have one
‘brother who is now in the sixth grade
and one sister who is now married and
is a graduate of the Armstrong Man-
ual Training School ,of Washington.
This is my third year in High School
and when I graduate (next year) I ex-
‘pect to enter Howard University.
This summer coming I expect to
make a visit to Washington and be-
come acquainted with the affairs of
the colored people.
Altho we have lived in this little
town among the mountains we have
toiled to do things to benefit the Col-
ored people. Last year the little
Colored organizations in the surround-
ing towns, and Du Bois, were asked
to raise money for the benefit of the
‘Colored schools. I have helped to give
recitals, plays and such things to raise
the money and we were very success-
ful. We have quite a few talented
Colored people around here.
I have become so interested in the
Black Man’s cause that my father has
promised to subscribe for the Wash-
ington Tribune for me so I may keep
in touch with the doings of my race.
Wishing and hoping for all the luck
‘God has in store for us—our race,
I remain yours truly,
PACOLA MATTHEWS, (Age 16)
(Dear Pacola: Your letter will be
gladly read by the Tribunites of vl
ington. The affairs of your town will

‘the race in general interest you. Write
often and tell us of yourself and your
friends, Invite them to write
to us«and thus get acquainted. If
yon care to correspond with, any of
the Tribunites let it be known.—Ed.)
Dear Bditor: I wish to become a
member of the “Children’s Page.”
Every week 1 read this page and I
am very much interested in the letters
and poems. Although I may be a
stranger to you and the Tribunites
now, from now on I will be one of the
Honor Children (of course this is my
intention). I have tried with all my
heart to solve the puzzles, and I hope
that I have made a success,
BESSIE MILLS (Age ?)
My dear Editor: I have not written
to the page for some time. I wish to
thank you for the prizes that I won
not long ago, I am sending in the
answers to the Puzzles for this week.
‘Today, I went to see Nazimova in
“Camille.” 1 enjoyed it immensely. I
was extremely glad to note that it
‘was based on a story written by the
son of our own Alexander Dumas.
‘Mr. Frazier, I was Special a few
weeks ago, but have not been able to
come for my ticket. Isn't it too
late to come?
VIOLET M. HARRIS
(Dear Violet: Your ticket is here
for you. Iam gid you enjoyed the
picture. Let us have a story ‘from
you.—Ed.)
Dear “Editor: I haven't written to
the “Children’s Page” for a long
time. I guess you think I have for-
gotten the Page. There has been sad-
ness in our home. On October 2tst
our little sister, seven years old died.
She was sick only a week. The Page
has been very interesting to me.
LEONA HARRIS (Age 14)
(Dear Leona: Not having your ad-
dress before me I am taking this
means of extending my sympathy to
you and family at your recent be-
reavement.—Ed.)
‘My dear Editor: I am sending in
answers to the puzzles. This is my
first letter to the “Children’s Page.”
T hope my attempt will be successful.
SARAH B. HARVEY (Age 15)
(Dear Sarah: Welcome. Write a-
gain very soon.—Ed.)
But I will sacrifice unto thee with
the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay
that that I have vowed. Salvation
is of the Lord. Jonah 2:9
. TRAINING THE HANDS
| Education doesn’t mean just the
‘training of the mind. The hands need
training, too, It is just as necessary
to be able to build, to produce, to erect
as it is to be able to say things and
to know that that which you say is
correct.
There are institutions which pre
pare one for the higher profes-
sions; too, there are schools to instruct
one in the trades.
‘The most noted institution of this
kind is our own Hampton Institute.
Just a word is taken from the
Southern Workman by Edith Arm-
strong Talbot as follows:
Hampton Today
‘There is to be learned at Hampton,
now as always, that which tends to
character building quite as much as
the discipline of intelligent labor:
this is the feeling of obligation to
ass on to others what one has
gained. A large number of grad-
uates are teachers passing on di-
rectly to their pupils what they have
learned. There are also many who,
while not giving formal instruction,
are doing that “quiet work upon the
whole circle of living” which Gen-
eral Armstrong characterized as
quite as important. Some are pro-
fessional workers, haying been
gaduated from other schools after
leaving Hampton. These, if they
preserve the sense of obligation to
serve their race, are among her most
prized sons and daughters. As ever,
she stands for the spirit, not the
form, and makes no demand where
or under what circumstances it shall
be shown.
“Edueation of head, hand, and
heart”—is any one of these neglect-
ed? It is true that instruction in ele-
mentary manners and morals is no
longer given, as in the past. The
majority of students now come from
Christian homes. where they have
been taught refined and ethical liv-
ing by their parents and churches.
What is needed is the great truth,
Christ’s lesson to the world, that one
can only keep what he has by pass-
ing it on to others in need. And this
has been taught at Hampton so long
ahd so faithfully, both by example
and precept, that it is no longer nec-
essary to stress it with words at all
times. What it was once necessary
to teach by precept, has now become
tradition—the very bricks and mor-
tar are full of it.
Blessings, and glory, and wisdom,
and thankagiving, and honor, and pow-
er, and might be unto our God forever
and ever, Amen. Rey, 7:12.
BILLY BOY
Did you ever stop to think just
‘what it means to have pride?
Of course you have.
Billy Boy was a little chap who had
heaps and heaps of pride. He was
proud of his mother and he helped
her with her work, He was proud of
his dad and he would do all he could
to prove to his dad that he was proud
of him. He was proud of little sister
‘Nel and big sister Mary and of bro-
ther Floyd.
They were all very, very proud of
Billy Boy too,
Billy Boy was very dark. He had
large eyes, a large nose, thick lips,
and what is called kinky hair.
He had a big heart, a kind smile,
a twinkle in his eyes.
He was fond of flowers, good music
and of his dog Rags,
Billy Boy was ten years old,
Billy Boy's family lived on Franklin
street. They were the only Negroes
‘who lived on this street. Right around
the corner lived lots and lots of
Negroes. Some were good and some
were bad. In the white neighborhood
there. were good people and bad
people.
The only difference Billy Boy could
see in people was that some were good
white or colored people, and some
were bad white or colored people.
No matter what he heard bad about
Negroes which was published in the
newspapers he always said or asked:
“God made us all,” or “Didn't God
make us all?”
eeee
One day while Billy Boy was sit-
ting on his front steps an old woman
whose head was gray and whose
clothes were ragged and much soiled,
came toddling down the street.
‘When she neared Billy Boy she stop.
ped and said, “Hi, sonny. Kin auntie
sit down here and res’?”
“Sure,” said Billy Boy, moving over
to make room for her.
“What might they call you son-
ny?” asked the old woman.
“Billy Boy. Why do you ask?”
“T have a grandson about your age.
P'rhaps yo’ know him. Dey calls him
Tatters.”
“Tatters? Sure I know Tatters. He
comes by here on his way to the dump
every day. Is he your really truly
grandson?”
“Yes. His pa an’ ma lef’ him when
he was ‘bout fo’ months ole and’ I’s
been taking keer o’ him all dese years,
He's smart, too. Smart as a steel
trap. He picks mo’ cinders dan any
jan’ count an’ write, an’ he learned it
‘all hisself. Is yo smart?”
“Well, I can read and write and do
arithmetic. I sift ashes every Friday
evening but I’m not crazy about doing
it”
“Shucks, chile, eant yo’ do nothin’
else?” asked the old woman with a
twinkle in her eye.
“Oh, yes ma’am. I can do lots of
things. I help mother and dad snd
my sisters and my brother.”
“Do you live with your mother?”
“Indeed I do.”
“Suppose some day she gets old and
ugly like me—”
_ “I'd love her then—” -
“Are yo’ sho?”
“Sure I'm sure. I love her now,
T’ve always loved her and I’m going to
always love her.”
“Lat us hope 20,” said the old
woman seriously. “Always love your
mother. She is your bes’ frien.’
She'll do fer yo’ when no one elae
be Stick by her an’ be proud o’
her. When she gits ole an’ feeble an’
can hardly make it—keep on being
proud o’ her. No matter what yo’
eber becum. be oroud o’ mother” |
(Concluded by Cornelia Jackson,
Age 16)
“Yes, ma'am, I will.”
After Billy Boy's conversation witb
the old lady he went into his room
thinking very deeply. He first won-
dered how he could make his mother
proud of him. Secondly, he wondered
how he could make his race proud of
him.
Suddenly a thought came to him.
“Perhaps,” said he, “I can not be
in very high social standing because
I might be embarrassed on account of
my appearance.”
Several other things Billy thought
he might do in the future but for
each he thought himself unfit.
Again he thought, “I must do some-
thing in spite of appearance. I am a
Negro boy and glad that God has made
me so. I read in history that all men
are created equal and I can do as
well as anyone else. I shall begin
today to aid myself. I am going to
be an author. My books will help
everyone who reads them.”
So Billy Boy during his early life
used to observe flowers and other
things of nature very closely. He took
special interest in music and his love
zor dumb animals was shown very
much,
At the age of fifteen he wrote his
first story called, “The Song of the
Negro.” This story showed his great
appreciation of music. The good
colored people of his neighborhood be-
came very entusiastic over his writing
and encouraged him to continue.
A year later another story appeared
which was written by our Billy Boy.
The title was “The Black Flower.” In
this book he called the Negro the black
flower. It was such a striking story
that some of its sayings sank deeply
into the hearts of the bad colored
people.
‘The boy was pleased to know that
he had reached his people by two
simple stories, However, he was not
satisfied. His aim was now to gain
recognization among the other race.
After a while he wrote a book en-
titled “The Good and the Bad.” This
book related some of the good and
bad deeds done by different races.
When reading the book teu
fall from the eyes of all his white
neighbors, the good and the bad.
Later he wrote books treating of
the care of dumb animals,
In a short time Billy was a fomous
writer among both races. At last his
wishes came true. Not only his moth-
er but his race was proud of him.
One day long afterwards while sit-
tings on his porch Billy spied an old
lady barely hobbling down the street.
She was recognized as being the lady
who conversed with him when only a
lad,
On reaching the house the Indy
stopped and Mr. Billy Boy shouted
“I ean do somehing now, Aunty.” He
then made himself known to the old
Indy.
Tears fell from her eyes.
“Chile,” she related, “Don't you
know Tatters has left me, an’ gone, I
go from door to door asking fer
bread.”
“Come in, Aunty,” said Billy, “and
be mother’s companion, My wife will
be glad to prepare food for you.
have a lifetime home because you
pushed me up to where I am today.”
Happy years rolled by until death
cerpt in and took the members of the
family one by one.
Concluded by Beulah Barber, Age 15
“Yes ma’am, I will.” The old woman
was soon rested and went on her way.
Promotion day soon came in school.
Billy Boy and Tatters were promoted
in the same room, Both boys were
smart at school work and they soon
became real rivals. At last they came
to the conclusion that one could not
out-work the other so they became
friends again. The two boys went
through school together and soon be-
came two of the leading men of our
race.
Billy Boy's parents lived to see him
grow to be-a young man and they
were very proud of him and he of
them. He studied to be a doctor and
when they grew old he took care of
them until their desth. At their death
he had a beautiful monument erected
in memory of them.
Although Tatters’ grandmother did
not live to see him become a man she
lived to see his’ sixteenth birthday.
Soon after she died:
As the two grew older they neve
laid aside their motto, which was,
“Be kind to everything.”

WHAT TO READ
Under this heading, we shall from
time to time give information and
comment similar to what “ollows.
This matter is desigrad more es-
pecially to be helpful . the older
youth and to those sho may have
charge of their instr. .tion.
‘The most of *he books and maga
zines mentianea may be borrowed
from the Public Library. However,
a few of them, such as the Literary
Digest, can be bought cheaply at near-
ly every news stand, The books writ
ten by Negro authors, should be pur-
chased to thewxtent of our financial
ability.
‘The most representative publication
produced by the Negro in America is
the “Journal of the National Medical
Association.”
‘This is a quarterly publication and is
the official organ of the National Medi.
cal Association and Allied Professions
of Medicine, Surgery, Dentistry, and
Pharmacy. It is published at 279
Bank St., Newark, N. J., on the 16th
of February, May, August, and Nov-
ember.
Two articles in the current issue
which are of interest to all readers are
“Masters in Medicine” by Charles H.
Phillips, Jr., M.D., St. Louis, Mo. which
tells the history of medicine from the
days of the use of herbs down to the
present day. The other artilee is in
the Dental Section under the caption
“Hard Foods and Hard Teeth by
Geo. A. Kyle, D.D.S., Paterson, N. J.
‘The latter article is a very interest-
ing one, and shows why people should
be careful in the selection of their
foods; how soft foods are apt to in-
jure the teeth; and how hard foods
have been found to be beneficial to the
teeth. The following paragraph gives
an idea of the trend of the article.
“Hundreds of thousands of intel-
ligent people today’ know that whole
wheat is one of the most perfect and
complete food materails for the human
animal, but will they eat it? No!
White bread, hot white biscuits, sugar
on everything, soft foods and confec-
tionery by the pound seem to be the
diet of the average society. People
know that other things are better for
them, but human nature will have to
change before we can control dental
caries through diet, even if that were
proved to be a possibility.”
This publication is the acme of our
journalism. It goes before the white
professional men with nothing of
which the race may be ashamed.
John A. Kenny, M.D., is Editor-in-
Chief (Tuskegee Institute, Ala.) and
W. G. Alexander, M.D., is Business
Manager, (Newark, N. J.). They
should be highly complimented. They
are not merely representative of their
profession—but are also representa-
tives of the race.
In a recent edition of Film Fun,
Hope Hampton, a movie star under the
title of “Send it Along, but Don’t—”
gives a bit of information to those who
desire to write photoplays. ‘The most
interesting item mentioned will throw
a bit of light on a phase in which we
as a race are interested.
She writes:
“Don't try to inject propaganda into
your stories. A great many stories
which I receive contain religious
arguments—they present a sectarian
plea. Others—though not so many as
formerly—go at it inversely—they at.
tack a certain race or religion, either
directly or indirectly, by making all
the characters of that race or religion
most unsympathetic. Remember that
the screen*public is made up of vari
ous religions and beliefs and races
and that to many a strong preach-
ment or, on the other hand,*an attack,
is like waving a red flag in the face
of an angry bull, Then, too, propa-
ganda is often out and out advertis-
ing and as such is resented by the
public. Many well-known writers
have attempted to inject propaganda
into film stories, and have failed to
fool the public as to their real object.”
There are few plays such ag the
“Clansman.” Perhaps Misg Hampton
has explained the reason.
“Negro Year Book, 1921-22”—Mon.
roe N. Work’s annual encyclopedia
of the Negro for 1921-1922 has ‘been
issued. Its make-up is good; its in-
formation is such as to be of immense
interest to the student,
Its greatest need is a better system
of indexing. The value of reference
books depends greatly upon the time
saved in using the book for reference
purposes. The index of this issue is
a decided improvement over past edi
tions, but still is inadequate.
The “Negro Year Book” should be
on the desk of teacher, business man
and home keeper.
Don't say “nigger.”

EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN
The Seventh District of the Associated Charities, located at 701 Rhode Island Ave., N. W., over which Mrs. Laura B. Glenn is supervisor, begins its Educational Campaign next month.
Mrs. J. Hayden Johnson succeeds Mrs. Emmett J. Scott as chairman of the Northern Conference which holds its weekly meetings on Tuesdays from 4 to 5 p.m., at which time all interested in the work of this conference are cordially invited.
Mrs. E. Otho Peters, a member of the conference, is chairman of the educational campaign which will extend thru the month of December for the purpose of acquaint ing the public with the function of the Associated Charities and placing before them the individual and family problems; to invite more volunteer workers; to solicit yearly contributing memberships and the aid of all churches, organizations and classes possible.
The chairman, assisted by a large committee of social workers and speakers, will honeycomb the city, telling of the 242 families under care, the 152 families receiving relief and the 29 volunteer social workers. The speakers will also acquaint the public with methods used to obtain finance thru its financial committee of which Mrs. Alonzo Brown is chairman. Mrs. Chas. I. West, member of the board of directors of the Associated Charities, conducts yearly rummage sales as a method of obtaining finance. In the next issue of The Tribune the conference will present to you the family offered for Xmas opportunity. 14.4 per cent and 50.0 per cent of the grand total of 1,549.
An analysis, by skill of these workers, after eliminating 196 unclassified workers, disclose the fact that it takes 863 skilled workers, as against 490 unskilled workers, to conduct the plant laundry industry of Washington D.C. Colored skilled workers, with a per cent of 57.2 are performing the bulk of the skilled duties, and of that per cent colored female workers with a per cent of 42.6, which is practically equal to the entire white increment, male and female, of 42.8 per cent, are performing virtually one-half of the entire skilled laundry work. Their male co-workers account for the remaining 14.6 per cent of the skilled work.
Coming to the unskilled group of 490 workers, 73 white and 417 colored, it is found that the latter have a percentage of 85.1 as against 14.9 for the former; and that the colored females with a per cent of 74.1 are, as before, performing the greater part of all duties. Colored males have an inclusion among the unskilled workers of 11.0 per cent. A further analysis was made, as far as possible, of the actual occupations of these workers, and it was found that they were principally distributed as follows:
Occupations White Col.
Assorters and markers...129 70
Drivers ...117 58
Engineers ...11 5

and mechanics.
5. "All others" includes supervisors, catchers, cleaners, general helpers, etc.
From the above it is apparent that Negro workers have mastered every art and trade of the laundry industry on through its development from the hand to the machine processes, and that their female wing has advanced, along with the whites, far beyond the stages of apprenticeship.
While the above figures and facts do not depict the full circumstances of 100 per cent of the laundry workers of Washington, D. C., and while they must not be understood to have any reference to the many private workers who, as of yore, are still plying their trades with old customers who do not desire to utilize the modern and mechanical means of washing and ironing; yet it is believed that the statistics submitted by the active plants which readily cooperated with the Department in this study are thoroughly typical of normal local conditions, both as to the above plants and as to the very small increment remaining untabulated.
TUSKEGEE NEGRO CONFERENCE
TUSKEGEE NEIGHBOR CONFERENCE
Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, Nov.
28-The Thirty-second Annual Tuskegee Negro Conference will be held at the Tuskegee Institute, January 17 and 18. The first day will be devoted directly to the interests of the farmers and the general topic, "Agriculture and Home Economics," will be discussed. Such problems as "Crop Production," "Live Stock Production," "Soil Improvements," "Marketing," "Food," "Clothing," and the "Home" will be discussed and solutions offered by men and women well versed in these particular directions.
The second day of the conference will be taken up with discussion of the subjects of interests to teachers, ministers and welfare workers in the rural districts. The geneal subjects will be, "Cooperation of Welfare Agencies in a County-wide Improvement Program."
The Tuskegee Negro Conference has been a moving factor in the advancement of agriculture in this section for more than thirty years. Each year agriculture problems are considered by men and women prominent in agricultural circles. Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal, is urging farmers, teachers, ministers, and welfare workers and all interested in rural betterment to attend this conference. The principal speakers will be announced at a later date.
THE COLLEGE ALUNNAE CLUB
DRIVE
The College Alumnae Club of Washington has started a drive for a $1,200 Scholarship Fund. This drive will be carried on until may, 1923. The purpose of the drive is to raise funds toward an endowment from which scholarships may be offered yearly to deserving girls, graduating from the local high schools, who wish to further their education by going to college. The club is anxious to be able to award scholarships which will be of great value to the recipients. An endowment is the one way to make this possible. Various means will be used to get the funds needed and the Club is hoping for the success of the first endeavor of this kind.
The Club has been divided this year into different smaller groups which study such subjects as art, music, literature, and politics. These groups are working independently but will appear before the assembled club for one program during the year. For the drive, however, the clubs will work separately in many cases, but in a few
instances groups will combine to get the needed quota.
The officers of the club for the year are; Mrs. Lucy M. Holmes, president; Dr. Eva B. Dykes, vice-president; Miss Juanita P. Howard, recording secretary; Miss Carrie E. S. Lee, corresponding secretary; and Miss Ruth E. Weatherless, treasurer. The executive committee is composed of Mrs. H. B. Allen and Miss Grace Coleman.
The Chairmen of the Committees are as follows: the Arts group, Dr. Simpson; Drama, Miss Brooks; House Decoration, Mrs. Anthony; Music, Miss Pinkney; Poetry, Miss Mustapha; Politics, Miss McNeil; and Social Service, Mrs. Wilder.
THE CALL FOR SOCIAL SERVICE WORKERS
By George W. McCorkle
To know the actual conditions of our group in a large city like Washington, it is very necessary for one to visit the people in their homes. If we judge the majority of our people by their wearing apparel, most of them could be classed with the wealthy there are so many among us who live far beyond our means in order to "Keep up with the Joneses."
In the homes you see actual con-
The Club is hoping that each group will over-subscribe its quota and a substantial sum realized toward the Scholarship Fund. The Club is expecting that this, its twelfth year, will be its banner year in every way.
LYNCHING SPIRIT SUBSIDING IN GEORGIA
Atlanta, Ga:—That there has been a surprising increase of anti-lynching sentiment in Georgia recently and a growing determination on the part of Georgia people that the sanctity of the law must be upheld, was clearly indicated in reports made to the State Committee on Race Relations in its recent semi-annual meeting in this city.
It was pointed out that during the present year twenty-two indictments have been returned against alleged lynchers and four convictions secured, carrying penitentiary sentences. Fifteen of these cases are still to be tried, most of them on the charge of murder, besides a number of damage suits growing out of injuries and losses inflicted by mobs. In one lynching case both the deputy sheriff and the chief of police are under indictment.
The significance of these facts was emphasized by the statement that in the 37 years ending with 1921 there had been 430 lynchings in Georgia and that record of only one indictment in all that time had been found.
The State and county race relations committees have been active in a number of recent cases, conducting investigations, securing evidence, and otherwise supporting local officials in their efforts to vindicate the law.
The need of an effective anti-lynching law in the State was stressed and the responsibility for drafting and getting such a bill before the next legislature was delegated to a committee of eminent jurists headed by Judge Samuel B. Adams, of Savannah
ALPHA PHI TO MEET
During the Christmas holidays every member of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity who served as a chapter charter applicant expects to be present at the 15th Annual Convention which has been denominated the "Pioneer's Convention" to be held at St. Louis, Missouri, December 27 to 31, inclusive. This special group of Alpha Phi Alpha men for the forty-four chapters of the Fraternity now numbers 445. Among these pioneers are such men as Eugene A. Jones, Vertner W. Tandy, H. A. Callis, George B. Kelly, Nathaniel A. Murray, Robert H. Ogle, Robert Morton, of the mother chapter; S. S. Booker, Dr. Sumner A. Furniss, George W. Buckner, David D. Jones, C. L. Rowlete, C. M. Cain, Dr. W. F. Jerrick, E H. Crampton, Dr. C. A. Lewis, Dr. M. Russell Nelson; Lucius L. McGee, A. G. Chapman, L. L. Redding, F D. Jordan, Daniel W. Bowles, William H. Mitchell, R. P. Alexander, and numbers of others who have now gained prominence in many important fields.
New Chapters Established
New Chapters Established
Announcement has recently been made by the National Secretary of the Fraternity, Norman L. McGhee, whose headquarters are at Howard University, of the establishment of chapters of the Fraternity at such schools as Springfield College, Springfield, Mass; Northwestern University, Evanston, Ill; the State University of Iowa, Iowa City; Iowa; the University of California, Berkeley, Calif; University of Colorado; Denver University, Denver, Colo.; and at Dayton, Ohio, and Indianapolis, Indiana. With these additions to its chapter roll, the Alpha Phi Alpha has now extended itself to practically every important university and college in the United Sates. It is a nationally known institution and through the conduct of its "Go to High School, Go to College" campaign in nearly every city throughout the country, its helpful influence in the educational life of the Negro student has been permanently established.
Railroad Rates to Convention Applied For
The National Secretary of the Fraternity has this year as in former years made application to the railroads of the country for a reduced rate to the members of the Alpha Phi Alpha who are to attend the St. Louis Convention. It is expected that rates will again be granted and announcement of the terms made at an early date.
THE CALL FOR SOCIAL SERVICE WORKERS
To know the actual conditions of our group in a large city like Washington, it is very necessary for one to visit the people in their homes. If we judge the majority of our people by their wearing apparel, most of them could be classed with the wealthy there are so many among us who live far beyond our means in order to "Keep up with the Joneses."
In the homes you see actual conditions and are therefore enabled to get first hand information. Every individual with a spark of intelligence will strive to look presentable when going out in society; and there are those of us who sacrifice many necessary things to put on a good front once or twice a week.
Usually when speaking or writing of social service work, we naturally think of the alleys and back streets of our cities. The writer must admit that there is great need of such work in alleys, but there are other places that need our attention, which shall be mentioned in another article. In this article, your attention is directed to the alleys, dives and back streets of this city.
It is a known fact that a large majority of the opposite race judge our entire group by the ignorance and indifferences of the lower element. We, ourselves, often make the same mistake. We stand aloof, refusing to lend a hand of sympathy and encouragement to an unfortunate brother.
Washington affords a great opportunity for social service workers. The Capital City of the greatest nation on earth should be foremost in such a needed work. From all sections of the country, and especially from the South come hundreds of our group to the Nation's Capital. Their missions to this great city vary. They come seeking better opportunity for employment, for education and for better homes. While some succeed in realizing the desires of their hearts, others fail completely. With large families to support, many parents of high moral standards are forced to live in alleys. Under these conditions, the child is often led astray.
Alleys are unsafe places for the rearing of children; yet we find some devoted parents who miraculously succeed in bringing up their children in the fear and admonition of God. These cases are rare because of the evil influences which exist.
As was stated elsewhere in this article, there are among those in the alleys, people whose lives are above reproach. Their characters are unquestionable. We find mothers and fathers there who possess race pride. They are anxious to support race enterprises. In order to encourage some worthy young man or woman who is selling some article to make his or her way through school, they very often make sacrifices to assist them.
The dangerous part of the alley situation is faced by the child who is forming character. The hard-working father and motor, both, in many instances, must leave home during the day to earn means to support the family. Then the boys and girls are left to the mercy of those bad characters who dwell in the alleys as well as to those who find their way to the alleys to conceal their mischeif and crime. These individuals are a menace to the race.
These are the conditions that solicit our immediate attention. Some may ask: What can be done? Well, something can be done, and something must be done. It has been wisely stated that no chain is stronger than its weakest link. As a race, composing a great chain, we are judged by the acts of the weakest links. It is an outstanding fact that if we hope to reach the highest pinnacle, the careless, the indefeerent, the unconcerned and the ignorant must claim our attention to such an extent that we shall come down from our pedestal of selfish dignity and lift up our brother that is farthest down.
There are enough, schools, churches and other organizations among our group in Washington to start such a campaign against vice as would be felt around the world. "The harvest
truly is great; but the laborers are few."
A challenge comes to every individual who claims to possess the spirit of the Christ. A challenge comes to every institution: church, school, Y. M. C. A., and the Y. W. C. A.
"Freely ye have received, freely give."

Y. W. C. A. NOTES
Y. W. C. A. NOTES
Miss Eva D. Bowles, the National Y. W. C. A. organizer of work among colored women and girls, gave the Phyllis Wheatley a flying visit last Monday, coming in time to be present at the Staff meeting. Another visitor of the week was Miss Chaplain, a Y. W. C. A. secretary in Richmond.
Vesper services next Sunday will be conducted by the Girls Athletic Club. Rev. Waldron of the Shiloh Church will speak and music will be rendered by members of the same church.
The Residence Committee of which Mrs. Annie E. Cromwell is chairman, entertained the residents of Phyllis Wheatley building last Saturday evening. There were music, games and refreshments. Mrs. McAdoo, Miss Merritt and Mrs. Thompson were guests.
Social Service
The Social Service Commitee, Mrs. E. V. C. Williams, chairman, had a public meeting at John Wesley Church Sunday 12th. Judge Sellers of the Juvenile Court made an address in which she showed how the churches may cooperate with social workers through the Big Sister and Big Brother and other movements. Miss Harper, House Director of Phyllis Wheatley, related something of the social service work being done by the Y. W. C. A. Rev. Carrington, pastor of the John Wesley Church, enthusiastically accepted the suggestions made and promised the cooperation of his church. Music was furnished by the junior choir of the John Wesley church.
The New Members of the Association were very much in evidence on Friday evening and many of their suggestions of entertainment were hailed with delight showing at once what new blood in any organization really means. Any one coming upon the group suddenly, would have been filled with admiration. Those who have not put in an appearance thus far are certainly missing a great pleasure.
CHURCH CASE UP AGAIN
The case of A. S. Pinkett, et al., against the First Baptist Church of Georgetown, of which Rev. Jas. L. Pinn is pastor, has been agreeably settled upon the suggestion of Justice Siddons, who stated that he could not grant the relief desired by the plaintiffs; but, he would continue the case for a week and suggested that as Christians, the plaintiffs and defendants ought to get together.
As a result of Justice Siddons' suggestion, the plaintiffs made written application for restoration into the church, accompanied by applications for letters of dismissal from the church.
At a special meeting of the church on November 17, the church adopted the following resolution: "Be it Resolved: that the First Baptist Church of Georgetown, Wasington, D. C., in meeting assembled, put itself on record as being willing and ready when the said Archibald S. Pinkett, H. W. Hewlett and Ora Hunt have dismissed equity proceedings number 40,171 now pending in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia and upon their request to be restored, give the said parties, plainiff in equity number 40,171, namely Archibald S. Pinkett, H. W. Hewlett and Ora Hunt, their letters of dismissal in order that they might be free to join some sister church.
"That the Moderator and Church Clerk are hereby authorized and empowered to have said letters of dismissal ready to be delivered to the said persons, or their attorneys, when the proceedings herein referred to have been dismissed."
In pursuance to that resolution the case was dismissed Wednesday, November 22, by the Attorney for Messrs. Pinkett and Hewlett and Miss Ora Hunt. Then and there Chas. S. Hill,
Attorney for the First Baptist Church delivered to Attorney Wm. L. Houston, the letters of dismissal for the Plaintiffs.
