ADVISES PEOPLE TO STAY IN SOUTH Columbia, S. C.—Bishop W. D. Chappelle, of the South Carolina Conference of the A. M. E. church stated here that he had appealed to all ministers under him to try to discourage the movement of colored people from this section to the North. At one time the authorities here believed the movement had ceased, but there now seems to be another revival of it. Just what effect Bishop Chappelle's announcement will have, is not known but the people who live under the intolerable conditions prevailing in the rural districts as well as in many of the cities, will decide the question regardless to any advice given them.

Leon Richardson Kappa Alpha Psi On Friday afternoon December 1, from 2 to 7 o'clock, the Xi Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity gave an open dance to all sororities and fraternities and their friends in and out of the city. Snowden's orchestra furnished music for the occasion. On Friday evening, from 8 to 12 in the Kappa House at 946 T St., N.W., an exclusive "Kappa Prom" was given to the visiting Kappa men and friends. There were representatives from Omrrican, New York; Theta, Chicago; Durham Alumni Chapter; Lambda, Philadelphia; Epsilon, from Lincoln, and the Baltimore Alumni Chapter. A gala evening was enjoyed by all amid gorgeous decorations prepared by Messrs. Cook Rozier and Lassiter. Splendid music was had, and delicious refreshments served. Alpha Phi Alpha On Friday evening from 8 to 12, at the Lincoln Colonnade, the Beta Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha held a reception. There were many visitors from their out of town chapters. Good music was on the program, and refreshments were served. Every one attending seemed to have spent a delightful evening with the Alpha fellows. --- Omega Psi Phi While the Alpha's were dancing at the Colonnade and the Kappa's at their Chapter House, the Alpha Chapter of the Omega Psi Phi and their visiting brothers and friends were dancing at the Murray Casino. The splendidly decorated dance hall prepared by Mr. T. J. Hopkins, attracted the attention of all present, and gained admiration. There was an electrical display of the Omega pin which stratified every one, and afforded a beautiful sight to the eye. Among those prominent at the dance were: Messrs. Ballinger and Sheffield of TEN YEAR OLD BOY IS VERY APT JEWISH STUDENT Observes All Jewish Holidays and Speaks Hebrew Fluently CANADIAN BY BIRTH Parents Anxious to Give Boy Best Hebrew Education Obtainable Detroit Mich.—Here's one pebble claiming the distinction of being the only one of a kind on the beach Joseph Wright, colored and non-Jewish, 10 years old, is one of the star pupils at the Wilkins Street Talmud Torah, Detroit, Mich. He ranks in scholarship above the average. Student in the third-year class in modern Hebrew, under Joseph Chaggi, instructor, the young non-Jewish Hebrew scholar finds himself much at home, as if he were among his own, while the difference in the color of his skin seems to be entirely unnoticed in and out of class among the youngsters. Joseph is just one of the boys, in play as well as study The eye of the visitor, however, soon notices the presence of Joseph Wright, and it was with the intention of learning more about this peculiar instance of a non-Jewish boy giving up the best hours of his day to the study of Hebrew that we visited Mr. Chaggi's class. We didn't have to wait long for an opportunity to have exhibited Joseph's knowledge of Hebrew. The young Negro's hand was the first to rise at an offered chance to answer a question put to the class by the teacher. His Hebrew was almost perfect and the pride with which he used the Hebrew speech was unreserved. More anxious than ever to learn the reason for his attendance at a Hebrew school we put the question to Joseph, when class was dismissed. "Mother wants me to know more languages," was the only reason he advanced. But whatever else may be the cause of his presence at the Hebrew school, this much is certain; that there is some force attracting the New York; Miss Katherine Watts of Baltimore, and others from various places. Sam Taylor's orchestra furnished the music. Refreshments were served. Phi Beta Sigma Thursday afternoon from 4 to 6 at the Alpha Chapter House of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, 325 T St., N. W., an "At Home" was held for all visitors. Friday evening, from 8 to 12 o'clock, at the chapter house, a dansante was held exclusively to Phi Beta men and friends. There were visitors from Lincoln, Temple, Union and the Philadelphia chapters. The music was grand; refreshments inviting. * * * Chi Delta Mu On Friday evening from 8 to 12 o'clock, Mr. Jimmie Gillespie and the Chi boys entertained at their Chapter House, 301 T St., N. W., in a dance reception. The decorations were elaborate, placed against the newly tinted walls and ceiling. There was delightful music and slendid refreshments. Among the prominent guests were the following: Dr. Jones, W. Va.; Dr. Williams, Tarboro; Dr. Wiley, New Jersey; Dr. Kadleigh, Mountclair, N. J.; Dr. Childs, Boston, and others. Mr. Gillespie, president of the fraternity, wishes to express his thanks for the invitation of Kappa Alpha Psi to the open matinee dance. --- Freshman-Sophomore Debate The report has just been sent out from the Committee on Inter-Collegiate Debates that the annual Freshman-Sophomore debate will be held in Rankin Memorial Chapel on Friday December 18th at 8 o'clock. The topic: "Resolved, That President Harding was justified in the veto of the Soldiers' Adjusted Compensation Bill." The class of '26 will defend the affirmative; the class of '25 the negative. The debate promises to be one of the best ever held. Kappa Sigma is sparing no pains to make it such. boy to the school which no power on earth can counteract. This is the fourth year of Joseph's studies in Hebrew. Born in Owensound, Ont., he studied in the Winnipeg Hebrew School prior to his coming to Detroit. His parents, who reside at 1904 Antietam, upon bringing Joseph to the Wilkins Street Talmud Torah, insisted on paying the full tuition fee and refused to accept any reduction offered them. Joseph's father is a poor decorator who struggles for a livelihood, and when Bernard Isaacs, superintendent of the local Hebrew schools, once offered that the tuition fee for Joseph be reduced, the boy's mother, on rejecting the offer, remarked: "I don't know how you feel about having Joseph at your school. But I want to assure you that if you don't want him I'll spend the last penny I possess and will secure for our boy the best available teacher, that he may get the best Hebrew education." Of course Joseph is welcome at the school. We asked his fellow pupils, and they said it never occurred to them to even entertain the thought that Joseph was not Jewish. He was one of them, and that was all there was to it. Arthur Weintraub, also of Mr. Chaggi's class endorsed this sentiment: "Joseph is one of us," he said. "He is a good student and the boys all like him." Joseph was rather bold and frank about his likings for Hebrew. On all Jewish holidays, he told us, he attended synagogue and prayed with "the rest of the Jews." Only occasionally does he attend the little Sunday school "somewhere on Russel street," that serves as his people's church. "Which do you prefer, Cheder or public school?" we asked Joseph, and his shy but sincere answer was "Cheder." There was a reproach in his answer, as if there could be no question about it. The preference for Cheder was to be taken for granted. The boy attends the Capron School at Maple and Rivard streets. Joseph has three sisters, one older and two younger, and all, with their parents are able to read Hebrew, speak and understand it. The little scholar of e house teaches the language to the rest of the family when he comes home from Cheder. Two incidents about Joseph are worthy of notation. Mr. Chaggi tells of an incident that occurred during art outing given for the pupils of the United Hebrew Schools. He offered Joseph a sandwich, and when the boy finally consented to accept it he did so with the condition: "But what is it made of? I ate meat, and it is only three hours since." On the eve of Yom Kippur, Mr. Chaggi was relating to his class the story of the ten Jewish martyrs who sacrificed their lives for their people and the children wept. Loudest among them was the weeping of Joseph Wright, the non-Jew. Listening to Joseph Wright, we thought of the Talmudic adages, "The Lord who proclaimed the Law of Sinai is the God of all nations," and "The virtuous of all nations participate in eternal bliss."

This tour was arranged by Miss Corrine E. Martin, assistant instructor in penmanship of the District public schools. The trip was arranged in the interest of more legibility in addressing of letters and packagees, and to present concrete evidence that carless- ly and poorly addressed mail matter is an expense to the government and an unreliable venture to the writer. Miss Martin has increased the efficiency in the public school in efforts of this type. Last year she conducted the Senior class of Miner Normal thru the parcel post division in the interest of better mailing and received a letter of commendation from Postmaster Chance. Two special cars were provided by the traction company for the classes last Tuesday. Such interest and trips of this nature will continue to add to the progressive efficiency of the department of penmanship. This was possibly the first class of colored students to ever invade the dead letter division. Mr. Bushby of that department did everything possible to make the tour of inspection illuminating and helpful. NEWSPAPERMEN GUESTS AT HOWARD One of the largest gatherings of newspaper men in the history of Washington was entertained by Howard University on Wednesday night before Thanksgiving in the University's new dining hall. About thirty newspaper men and members of the faculty, and representatives of Lincoln University attended. A dinner was served and a few short speeches were made including one by President Durkee of the University. Dr. Emmett J. Scott acted as toastmaster. Among the papers represented were the New York Amsterdam News, New York Age, New York Daily Negro Times, Philadelphia Tribune, Atlantic City Gazette-Review, Baltimore Commonwealth-Herald, Chicago Defender, Washington American, Washington Eagle, and the Washington Tribune. ALPHA PHI GETS REDUCED RAILROAD RATES The Railroads of the country have granted a reduced fare to the members of the Alpha Phi Alpha who are to attend the 15th Annual "Pioneers' Convention" of the Fraternity to be held at St. Louis, Mo., December 27, to 31, inclusive, 1922. The rate reduction to the convention of the Alpha Phi Alpha is based upon the certificate plan of one and one-half fare for the trip and will apply to members and also to dependent members of their families. From all indications the coming convention of the Alpha Phi Alpha is going to be the biggest and best the Fraternity has ever held. Last year it had 32 chapters represented at its convention. It now has 44 chapters upon its roll and a membership of over 2500. PHOTOGRAPHIC EXHIBIT AT CLEVELAND SCHOOL There will be an art photographic exhibition at the Cleveland School, 8th and T Sts., N.

Scott We probably could not attempt a more dangerous peril than that of ranking the Colored college football eleven of the past season. The dope was so badly balled up that it is practically an impossibility to say just where the best eleven were located. Probably never before have as many teams possessed practically the same strength. The closeness of the scores of many games upholds this view. Some were stronger than in 1921 and many decidedly weaker; bringing the majority to almost a dead line. Lin- THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE cols, Howard, Talladega, Wiley and Union suffered much through the loss of last season's stars. Hampton, Va., gregations on the field. Little change in either direction was noted at Morehouse, Wilberforce, Shaw, Fisk, Liv ingstone and West Virginia.

Fisk by a single point lost to Atlanta and also to Tennessee; and by the same margin conquered Morehouse. Now solve the puzzle—"The Southern Champion." We saw Union outplay, but not outclass. Morehouse in the inter-sectional clause of the season at Norfolk. That Fisk was able to down Morehouse, and Atlanta able to defeat Fisk, speaks well for the strength of these Southern elevens.

Shaw scored 122 points to her opponents' 9, giving Shaw a ratio of 14 points (nearly) for every 1 of her opponents; while Wilberforce scored 132 points to her opponents' 19—giving Wilberforce a scoring ratio of 6 to 4.

According to public comment, Mr. Dabney proved and more than defended his nationally recognized distinction of being the greatest colored musical director. W. VA. DEFEATS WILBERFORCE Wilberforce, Ohio—On Thanksgiving Day, while lusty voices yelled their favorites, and the songs of Wil- berforce rose up from thousands of students alumni and friends, eleven men from the hills of West Va. in whose hearts beat the hymns of their Alma Mater, the West Virginia Collegiate Institute, forced their old-time rival, Wilberforce University, who was represented by eleven similarly clad men, to suffer a stinging defeat—6 to 0. JOHN HARRIS The football game was played upon the University field at Wilberforce. The day was ideal in CARDWELL Wilberforce. The day was ideal in every respect. Although the sun kept the huge crowd from seeking shelter or warmer positions, the crispness of the air and the slight breezes which blew was only enough to keep the "pep" and "drive" in those upon the field. The giant full-back from "The Force" plunged the line time after time, only to be stopped by the "Yellow-Jackets", without gain or with a great loss. "The Smiling Half-back" from Institute, Mark Carwell, ripped the Green and Gold line for first and ten at will. But this game was not of those series of plays which star one man but it was a game in which twenty-two men were fighting furiously and tugging desperately in order to place a leather football on the other side of his opponent's goal line, and thus place a score for his school. Thruout the game, Wilberforce was outplayed, which is evident from the fact that only once did the ball cross over into the territory of West Virginia. In fact, the oval was kept between the twenty and forty-yard lines in Institute's hands and in the territory of the Ohio team. Here the stiffest opposition would be met by the "Driving Plungers," and Institute would lose the ball on downs. 1930 In the third quarter of the game, Smith for Institute raced from mid-field to the ten-yard line where he jumped into the air and clasped the ball in and again raced for fifteen yards where he was out of danger. The referee blew his whistle and a score was marked for the "Old Gold and Black." This EAVES "Old Gold and Black." This long pass was good for the only touchdown of the afternoon's battle. Once when Eaves raced fifteen yards and placed the ball near on the goal line for Institute, the "Buckeyes" held for downs and pushed the ball back into the center of the field. Willet and Hurd were the outstanding players in the backfield of Wilberforce, while mention must be made of the generalship of Stout, who opened up a vicious aerial attack during the last two minutes of play. This was very effective, but Jones, center for Institute, intercepted and ball stayed in the hands of the latter throughout the remainder of the game. Drewery, Bowles, Walker, Preston, Brown, Saunders, Hodges and Turner were the other strong holds on Institute eleven, while Tripp (Capt), Smith, Roberts, Smith, A. J., House, Fairfax, Stewart, Huff, Redden and Coleman composed the strong losing team of Wilberforce. Officials—Brown (Springfield Y. M. C.

Taylor Atlanta, Ga., November 30—The Fisk Lions passed their way to victory over the Fighting Tigers from Morehouse in the annual Thanksgiving game of the south at Morehouse Field, 20 to 19. The crowd of approximately 8000 was the largest that ever witnessed a game in Atlanta. The score adequately represents the nature of the struggle that abounded in racing up and down the field, forward passing, spirited tackle rushes, tense situations with fumbling and bad decisions by officials. Brilliant individual playing by members of both teams marked the contest. Captain Tubby Johnson was clearly the center of attraction on the Lion aggregation although Lunceford, Harris, and other of his teammates got away with longer gains than he. With an almost perfect aim his passes were well nigh perfect. The team, as a whole was one of the most sportsman-like elevens that ever came to the Capital City. Capt. Gayles, Gentry, Harper, Kelley, "Kee Wee" Irving, Starr, and Cooke were the outstanding stars of the game. The Morehouse line was airtight from end to end, and never did the Lions succeed in going thru it. Gentry and Harper, playing their last year for the Maroon-and-White were at their best.

Cornish Hampton, Va., Dec. 7.—In her closest contest of the season, Hampton Institute defeated the much-reputed Virginia Union University football team on Thanksgiving by the score of 8 to 6, and thus became the undisputed champions of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association for the Middle Atlantic States. Twenty-five hundred people from Hampton and neighboring cities were present to cheer their respective teams on to victory. Gunn Drop Kicks Promptly at 2:30 Union kicked off to Hampton. The pigskin got as far as Hampton's 30-yard line. On the first two plays Hampton made 5 yards. Jacobs then called upon Gunn, who sent the ball down to Union's 12-yard lie. Union was not able to gain ground to any extent and punted to her 43-yard mark. Hampton fumbled on her first play, but Dame Fortune smiled on her and she recovered the oval. The Institute boys were out to win. Points must be made. Jacobs called a new signal. Gunn back and scored Hampton's first three points with a field goal from the 35-yard line. Union Makes Touchdown Union Makes Touchdown In the second quarter, Jackson punted on his fourth down to Hampton's 90-yard line. With his back to the wall, Gunn sent the pigskin to the visitors' 49-yard line. Union tried her lightning end runs and famous triple passes, but they were broken up by Hampton's tackles. After an incomplete pass Jackson was forced to kick. Cardozo received the punt on his 20-yard line. Gunn returned the punt to the 50-yard line. Through repeated line plunges and a forward pass from Jackson to W. A. Smith, which netted 30 yards, Union put the pigskin on the "Seasiders" 10-yard line. It looked as though the Hampton line would stiffen and hold Union for downs, but after two more plays, which netted 7 yards, Jackson put the ball over on the fourth down for Union's lone score. An attempt for the extra point by the air route failed. Hampton Scores Twice Capt. "Red" Dabney, Hampton's All-American center, kicked off to Union's 27-yard line. Union advanced the ball to her 37-yard line. A penalty of 15 yards was imposed on Union. Jackson covered a bad pass behind his goal line, where he was downed by A. Ruffin, Hampton's fast end. The result was a safety, which netted two points for Hampton. In the mix-up Jackkicker and he went about to develop a man at place kicking. The "try for point" has been an uncertainty at Howard all the year. Just as was done Thanksgiving, first Carter would make a try at missing and then Doneghey; then a pass would be atson's nose was injured, and he was forced to leave the field. Union took possession of the pigskin on her 30-yard line. After Hucles had been thrown for a loss of 9 yards, he punted to the 50-yard mark. Hardwick, after making a 7 yard gain, fumbled, and Union recovered on her 43-yard line. On another bad pass Hucles was thrown for a loss of 30yards. Union then punted to Hampton, who worked the ball up to her 20-yard line. With only two seconds to play, Gunn dropped back and from a difficult angle sent the ball skimming over the cross-bar, netting the three points which won the game for Hampton. The first half ended, Hampton, 8; Union, 6 FOLLOW ME ONE WEEK ONLY By The second half had thrills galore. Union worked the ball to Hampton's 20-yard line. An attempted forward pass to her 1-yard line failed. At an other time Union was within striking distance. On the 16-yard line Jackson, who had returned to the game, attempted to drop kick. His failure saved the day for the Institute boys. Jackson, Hucles, and Derritt were easily the stars for Union. The entire Hampton team played stellar ball. Too much cannot be said of the all-round work of Capt Edward L. Dabney, All-American center for three seasons and probable recipient of that honor for the present season. This was Captain Dabney's last game for Hampton, as he has just completed four years service with the Hampton team. Hampton Union Ruffin, A. . . L.E. . . Smith W. A. Ruffin, J. . . L.T. . .

Scott The Thanksgiving "Classic" is now history. The Lincoln Lions by a single point won the football honors over Howard that gave them supremacy for another year. A more colorful and dramatic spectacle as presented on the holiday morn has never before been witnessed. Many have said that Howard should have won. Be that as it may, these facts are clear, that the smartest and the gamest team won, that Lincoln's holding on her 1-foot line in the first period and Byrd's long dash in the second quarter had a telling psychological effect on the locas. Carter unfortunately has been made the goat by many, but this plucky star was unlucky, a victim of circumstances, and in addition was suffering from injuries received in the Hampton game. He was in the game to carry out orders and it is quite likely he did just that. Coach Law covered himself with glory by closing the season with a victory over Howard. Especially can one appreciate Law's success when Lincoln's hard and poorly arranged schedule and the matter of disciplining such temperamentals as Skinker, is taken into consideration. On many occasions Thursday we observed the "thinking Law." First when the Lions held on their 1-foot line, Lee, the best punter on the squad was rushed in and booted the pigskin out of danger. Again, "Whirlwind" Johnson, the most feared man in the visitors' backfield, was yanked when he showed signs of tiring, and Byrd replaced him. Byrd soon thereafter broke loose for that memorable dash. Crudop replaced Skinker after the touchdown, and added the winning point from placement. Crudop was again sent in to try a placement when the Lions had worked the ball far into the locals' territory. And something else,—Law had earlier in the season seen that he lacked a dependable drop-temted. Neglecting this fundamental issue, cost Howard the Lincoln game. KY. NORMAL DEFEATS TENN. Nashville, Tenn., Thanksgiving Day—Kentucky Normal of Frankfort, Ky., defeated the Tennessee State Normal School here today 7 to 2 in a game full of thrills and which for two periods was a kicking duel. Tennessee scored in the last of the first half when Smith of Kentucky made an overpass to Jones behind his goal line which he touched down for a safety. Kentucky scored in the last minute of play after advancing the ball from midfield. It was Tennessee's first defeat of the season. Had Tennessee now lost today it would have had a clear claim to the Southern championship by virtue of a victory over Fisk earlier in the season.

DECEMBER 9. 1922 SPORTS BENEDICT 8 CLAFLIN 6 (Special to The Tribune) (Special to the Tribune) Orangeburg, S. C., Dec. 2:—One of the hardest fought games of the season was witnessed here Thanksgiving Day when the Benedict Tigers defeated the Claflin Panthers 8-6. Every man played his part. Only once did Benedict threaten Claflin's goal at which time a forward pass was completed which netted a touchdown. Benedict made several gains on long end runs. Claflin threatened Benedict's goal three times but costly fumbles caused them to lose the ball. In the third quarter Benedict blocked a kick which was covered behind the goal by Claflin's captain who was downed in his tracks, this netted a safety for the Tigers. With spirits unmarred the Panthers began an onslaught on Benedict's line which gave way at intervals. Captain Rosemond of the Panthers wiggled through the Tigers' line for forty yards. On an on-side kick the ball was received by Benedict's half back behind the goal. He attempted to come out when he was tackled hard and spilled the ball, which was covered by a Claflin man for a touchdown. Neither team was able to make the try for goal point. There were no stars, but the consistent playing of both teams was the feature of the game. ALL AMERICAN CANDIDATES TO BE REVIEWED In next week's issue of the Tribune, the All-American candidates will be reviewed by H. Scott, Tribune sports writer. Mr. Scott is one of the best informed writers on Colored college athletics in the country and each year his selections have been keenly awaited by football followers. Mr. Scott has seen practically all the big elevens of the country in action this season. Y GIRLS DEFEAT BALTIMORE IN FIRST GAME On Friday, December 1st in the first game of basket ball held at the "Y" this season, the local Y. W. C. A. girls' team defeated the Celeritas of Baltimore in a fast game. During the first half of the game Washington had no easy time and things looked very serious for them, but they came back to the second half with a determination to win and so started off with such a speed that it was impossible for the Celeritas to hold them in check. The score piled up and ended in a victory for the "Y" girls 30-21. Miss Mary Stewart and Virginia Johnson of the Washington Team deserve special mention for their playing because of the short time they have been in the game. The whole team showed remarkable team work and that it had been well coached. The Baltimore Team is a good one also, and has as its stars Misses Pauline Wharton, Louise Parratt (Capt.) and Elizabeth Brown. The next game will be December 15th with Morgan College at the "Y" building here. ARMSTRONG'S SPECTACULAR RECORD Probably the most remarkable feat of the past gridiron season was accomplished by the Armstrong High PULLMAN PORTER TIPS Mrs. Bert Richardson, sister-in-law of N.

The Storer game resulted in a scoreless tie, but high school teams of Baltimore, and Norfolk were defeated. BASKET BALL ON THE HILL It is not definitely known whether or not Howard will have a varsity basket ball team. The same conditions which prevented having a varsity team last season, still exist; nevertheless, the various fraternities and clubs are lining up for the coming season. If a varsity team is to be had most likely Doctor Dash of last year's Dental Clas will coach, so far as the whispers go. Dr. Dash is here taking post graduate work preparing for the New York Board. Dr. Dash is now coaching the collegiate five of this city who played the Defender five in New York, Thursday evening at the Manhattan Casino. Mr. Weekland is manager of this team, "Cliff" Clarkson is captain.

THANKSGIVING A day in the year has been set aside as a national holiday—our the idea is, and how inconsistently we observe it. To most of us it is a day of great feasting. Our tables are filled. Our thoughts are centered on the Lincoln-Howard football game or some other event of a social nature. The giving of thanks for our many blessings receives the least of our consideration. Boys and girls, how many of you feel that you have something to be thankful for? I am so glad to see so many hands raised and to notice that all of you feel that you have cause to give thanks for something. Just think of the men and women about whom you read in your history classes: Napoleon, Bismarck, Caesar, Columbus, George Washington. Think what a wonderful thing it was to them to have had a hand in the making of a country. And think of Crispus Attucks and Frederick Douglass and Sojourner Truth and Booker Washington, Kelly Miller, and scores of other great men whose lives we have reviewed in the historical columns of this paper. And then bow your heads and raise your hearts in thanksgiving to your Maker that you have such men and women as sources of inspiration to you. And give thanks of inspiration to you. And give thanks that ours is a young race, only just in the making, and that it is your privilege, Negro boy and girl, to live good lives and improve your opportunities so that you may distinguish yourselves and forge a link in the great chain of Negro history. Remember, it is not only those who go out on the battle field and fight, who are real soldiers, but those who patiently do their entire duty at home and diligently play their humble parts, may also prove themselves worthy of honors. "Life is a leaf of paper white Whereon each one of us may write His word or two and then comes night. Though thou hast time but for a line Be that sublime. Not failure but low aim is crime." Be not "niggardly" in your dealings with one another. The word "nigger" which we detest so very much and which we have sworn to leave out entirely from our daily usage, comes from an assimilation of the word "niggard" meaning a stingy, narrow, mean low person. So let us be just as far different from the inference they would cast upon us, as possible. Let us love and serve one another so much that we will "Count that day lost whose low descending sun views from our hands no worthy action done." Then will our hearts overflow with the joy of being alive, of being useful, of working out the destiny of our race, of loving and serving our Heavenly Father, to whom all thanks must be given. Indeed we have many things to be thankful for—not only on Thanksgiving Day, but on every day in the year. Santa Claus Letters to Santa Claus should be in this office by December 19, noon. Editor, Children's Page --- THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNESATURDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1922 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 brother 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?" --- One day while Billy Boy was sitting 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 stopped 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 sonny?" asked the old woman. "Billy Boy. Why do you ask?" "I 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 an' count an' write, an' he learned it all himself. 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, cant yo' do nothia' 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 and 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, I've always loved her and I'm going to always love her." "Let us hope so," said the old woman seriously. "Always love your mother. She is your best' frien.' She'll do fer yo' when no one else will. 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 proud o' mother." (Concluded by Mary A. Thomas) "Yes'm. I will." Years passed by, Billy Boy had graduated from college with honors, and was now the head of the Spanish Department at Dunbar University. For four years, he had not seen his mother and, sorry to say, did not care to see her. He was so proud of his work. His mother, in the mean time, was very anxious to see him and decided to go to New York for the purpose of seeing him. She prepared for the visit with great care, but living in a country town and having country ideas and customs, did not dress in style and so on arriving in New York, she was gazed upon by everyone. With little difficulty she was driven to her son's house. His house was one of the handsome mansions for which Lenox Avenue is noted. When she rang the bell she asked for Billy Boy. The butler, with a look of scorn replied, "I know of no Billy Boy living here, but if you wish to see Mr. William Browning, please take a seat in the parlor." She felt a pang of disappointment but said nothing. Billy Boy came down the stairs dressed in the "height of style." When he saw his mother he only said, "Oh, mother! Why have you come?" "Son, Son! she cried and rushed to kiss him but Billy Boy, seeing the butler, still standing near, dismissed him thinking of the tales he would tell about the horrid old lady who asked for Billy Boy and who wanted to kiss Mr. William Browning! With a heart full of sad thoughts and murmuring to herself, "He's ashamed of me," she went to bed in an elaborate bed, without even kissing her Billy Boy, whom she had not seen for years! That night Billy Boy had a dream. He was a boy again and the conversation with Tatter's grandmother was reviewed. It all plainly came back to him and he awoke with a start. Being unable to wait until morning he rushed to his mother's bed where he woke her with his sobbing, crying and kissing. Billy Boy is now living in the same mansion and with him lives his mother old and gray. Nel, Mary and Floyd were all married and living happily. Billy Boy right now is reading the paper to his mother who sits and dreams and has almost forgotten the time when Billy Boy was ashamed of her. (Concluded by Geo. C. Morris, age 11) "Yes, ma'am, I will." Bill Boy did not intend to forget this, and he didn't. Two years later when Billy Boy was twelve years old, his father took to drinking. All the money he made he bought whiskey with. He got back with the rent for three months so the family lost their house. Billy Boy's father became a prisoner in State's Prison for seven years. Billy Boy's family moved next to Tatters. Mary got a job as a waitress in a hotel making $5 a week. Floyd was in high school and making enough money to buy his books. Billy Boy picked cinders and brought home chips to save the buying of coal and wood. Nel helped her mother with the washing and ironing and did odd jobs around the house. Thus the family got along. the house. Thus the family goes along. Passing through many hard and severe struggles the family bettered their circumstances slowly. Now, seven years later the family was sitting around the supper table. Mary was married, Floyd and Billy Boy were in college and Nel was in high school. One evening they heard a heavy step in the hall, looking they saw a well dressed, clean shaven man about forty-five years of age with an expensive pin in his tie and a gold ring on his finger. Their mother ran and embraced him. He was their father. He told them how his rich uncle had died leaving him a $50,000 estate and $10,000 and also a partnership in a firm. The family moved to Chicago. Now they are enjoying a life of luxury. Billy Boy has never forgotten the old woman's words or the tenth commandment, "Honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee." Don't say "nigger.' QUESTION BOX Mr. Frazier: I have heard that Hampton Institute has opened a course called a Builders Course. Please give me particulars of same, if you can. E. W. D. Ans: Albert Farwell Bemis of Boston, recently made a donation of $50,000 toward the endowment of the Hampton Institute builder's course, made another gift which will make possible the immediate establishment of a department of the Hampton Trade School which will be known as the Department of Building Construction. In addition to a two-year advanced builders' course, which will be open to qualified graduates of trade schools, this department will hold builders' conferences and short courses from time to time. Another important function will be the maintenance of a service bureau, where advice, tests, and other helps may be obtained. The aim of the course is to give a thorough training in the practical and technical problems which must be solved by the builder and contractor in the successful conduct of his business. Emphasis will be laid upon the development of an appreciation of architecture which should enable graduates of this course to distinguish themselves by the general excellence of their work. Pending the erection of a permanent building for this work, the departmental office, testing laboratory, and drafting-room are being fitted up in the building which was erected during the World War for the Students Army Training Corps.

FAMOUS NEGRO WARRIORS Hamilcar Barca who was the father of Hannibal commanded the Carthaginian forces in Sicily in the year 247 B.C. there he took a stand and defied the great Romans to dislodge him. After this Hannicar made his son Hannibal avow before a sacred altar that he would use all efforts to destroy the Roman forces. Hannibal grew up hating the Romans more and loving war still more. Finally in 217 B.C. with large forces under his command he invaded Italy and destroyed the Roman army. Thus Hannibal earned for himself the title, "The greatest general of times," and together with his father and various descendants made famous the city of Carthage. Henry Diaz organized the "Black Regiment" of Brazil that existed three centuries. John de Bolas led the so-called "Jamaica Blacks" in the revolt of 1730 and caused the "Great Kingdom of England," to draw up a treaty granting them a portion of the territory of Jamaica.

EXTRA! Deep Mystery Surrounding All of This Anywhere, U. S. A., Nov. XX—Shee-ee, we're all alone, our hands with blood does reek: let every one keep silence; let no one dare to speak. The blood was shed for all—why bear the blame on me? The stains of guilt rest on us all as it is plain to see. Why would these stains of blood be on every hand if only I was guilty—don't you understand? The crime was done for all of us; being hungry you wanted to eat; you know that's why I climbed that fence and stole the farmer's beets. NORRIS WHITING. (Age 12) SELECTED POEMS Dear Editor: I am sending a poem which was written by Alice Carey. The name of the poem is "November." November The leaves are fading and falling, The winds are rough and wild, The birds have ceased their calling, But let me tell you, my child, Though day by day as it closes Doth darker and colder grow, The roots of the bright red roses Will keep alive in the snow. And when the winter is over The bough will get new leaves; The quail come back to the cover, And the swallow back to the eaves The robin will wear on his bosum A vest that is bright and new, And the loveliest wayside blossom Will shine with the sun and the dew The leaves today are whirling, The brooks are all dry and dumb, But let me tell you, my darling, The Spring will be sure to come. There must be rough cold weather And winds and rains so wild; Not all good things together Come to us here, my child. Its beauteous summer glow, Think how the roots of the roses Are kept alive in the snow. I think this is a very pretty poem don't you? FRANCIS BOYD (A very pretty poem, thinks I, thinks I, a very pretty poem, thinks I. —Ed.) Dear Editor: I am writing you this letter to tell you that I would like to join the "Children's Page." I have been reading the page for about two months and I like it ever so much. Here is a poem called "Four Leaf Clover." Four Leaf Clover I know a place where the sun is like gold And where cherry blossoms burst like snow: And down underneath is the loveliest nook Where the four leaf clovers grow. One leaf is for hope and one for faith, And one is for love, you know, But God put another in for luck— If you search you will find where they grow, But you must have hope and you must have faith, You must love and be strong and so If you work, if you wait you will find the place Where the four leaf clovers grow. This was written by Ella Higginson. HELEN CARROLL LETTERS FROM OUR LITTLE FRIENDS Dear Editor: I started the story last week, but was unable to finish and send it in, so I am very glad that you've given us another chance. I am herewith, sending my conclusion. You must not think that I have lost interest in the Page for it is still very dear to me, but I find that my studies require all of my time. However, I still enjoy the Negro Histroy and the puzzles. MARY A. THOMAS BEES The Chinese place their family name first. Let us consider ourselves a family of Chinese bees (if Chinese bees are different from ours) and write our names like this: Bee Jolly Bee Polite Bee Considerate Bee Prompt Bee Obedient Bee Moral Bee Grateful Bee Loyal Bee Honest Bee Truthful Bee Studious Bee Ambitious SLEEPY-SLEEP TOWN Have you been? Will you go? You'll enjoy it much I know. But first you must put on a snow white gown: The admission's a kiss And when you have paid this You can travel alone to Sleepy-sleep Town. The king and the good queen I'm sure you've often seen, With Mother Goose they are of great renown: Reign over the kingdom of Sleepy sleep Town. PAGE SEVEN TRIBUNITE'S PLEDGE 1.

Seeing nothing worth seeing he climbed down again and to his astonishment he saw a dozen men. A bear Frightened—he thought to run away by a secret route; but imagine his surprise when a bullet struck his snout. That bear rolled a dozen miles away, and, child, we haven't seen that bear from that time to this day.

The Republicans are trying to shift the responsibility for killing the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill to the filibuster of the Southern Democrats. That is misleading and deceptive. The facts are these: The Republicans had a majority of 24 in the Senate. They did not use the prerogative of the majority but sat idly by and permitted the filibuster to work out successfully. Not a single, sincere and determined effort is on record as being made by a Republican Senator to break up the filibuster or to really bring the bill before the Senate. The records of the Senate show that when a determined ma- jority desire to force a bill thru the upper house, every means is resorted to and used. Did the Republican majority force the sessions of the Senate into extra hours to break the filibuster? Not for one single hour. When Senator Lodge has wanted to put thru his pet legislation he has forced continuous sessions in the Senate until the desired results were obtained. Where were the friends(?) of the Dyer Bill? Where are the avowed friends of the Negro? All promises have failed and the Republican Party stands out today as the biggest hyprocrite in Christendom. To the Republicans belong the responsibility for the “lynching” of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. The Tribune is the only colored paper in the whole country that predicted from the very inception of the bill, that it would never pass the Senate. We have also stated that it was a great mis- directed effort. But, we would not have our readers believe that we are against the principle involved.. We are against lynching and mobocracy first, last and all the time; but, we have not be- lieved the Dyer Bill would bring the promised and desired relief. Tiger of France Given Basket of Roses (Continued from page 1) ment read: “To Georges Clemenceau: Patriot, Statesman, _Indomitable Champion of ‘right, Protector of France, Conservator of world order; Generous appreciator of American, European or African, whose valor saved civilization, the venerable pleader in behalf of the land of La Fayette and of Liberty.” The presentation of this token by the colored people of Washington was in response to the manly defense of the colored soldiers made by the “Ti- ger” in New York. Washington is the fourth city to make a presentation to the Grand Old Man of France on his tour of the United States. New York City, St. Louis, and Indianapo- lis, Ind., being the other three cities, Among those presenting the beau- tiful_flowers, were: Captain A. C. Newmat.. Principal -of Armstrong Manual Training School, who served with the 372nd Infantry Regiment in France; Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secre- tary-Treasurer Howard University; Prof. Garnet C. Wilkinson, Assistant Superintendent of the City schools; Judge Robert H. Terrell, of the Muni- cipal Court; J. W. Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P.; Rev. Emory B. Smith and Rev, J. U.

Alumni To Fight (Continued from page 1) Alumni Banquet, Wednesday night of last week, at the Whitelaw Hotel. ‘This statement from Dr. Childs was in answer to Mrs. Marie Madre Mar- shall, who said that the alumni wanted a voice in the government of Howard University and should dictate some of the policies of the University. Hon. I. H, Nutter, president of the Alumni Association, answered Dr. Childs and said: “It is easy enourh: to take men frem the pulpit to run How- ard University. We are not here to fight the University, but, neither Dr. Durkee nor Emmett Scott can love Howard University as we, who have sacrificed and gone hungry in many instances, for the University. I moan that the Durkee Administration shall recognize the General Alumni As- sociation or I shall take the matter to Congress. “There is always some puppet,” said Mr. Nutter, “ready to cringe when men attempt to do things. | am tired of our big men apologizine for some white man in order to s't at his table. I will match your cheek, Dr. Childs dollar for dollar, for How- ard University. Let’s write checks as well as talk. “We can not afford to permit men like Kelly Miller and George Cook, who have given their time and money to the University, to have their in- fluence curtailed. We will not sind for this administration telling Kelly Miller what he chall or shall not write, PAGE EIGHT “The Durkee Administration wants the president of the Aumni to be a rubber stamp, which he will never be. We selected a field Secretary for the Association and Dr. Durkee objected to this selection because he could not control him. He said that he wanted a young man who would go when he said so and come at his command. We cannot stand for any such inter- ference by the President of the Univ- ersity with the General Alumni As- sociation.” said president Nutter. Dr. Sinclair, recently elected field secretary of the Alumni Association said: “I am convinced that Dr, Durkee has not respect for the Negro, and I know whereof I speak. I am not a hat-in-hand Negro and will never be. We are for Howard University and its fullest benefit to our race, but we will not obtain that until we have another president of the University.” ‘The banquet was attended by more than 150 graduates of the University. Following the six course dinner, do- nations were received for carrying on the work of the Association and more than a thousand dollars were placed on the table. Dr. Sinclair is to take the field and interest the Alumni in the new work as outlined in the first issue of the “Sentinel” a paper issued by the As- sociation. All of those present ex- pressed themselves as being sanguine of the rapid progress of the Alumni and the great service that it will ren- der the University. Citizens Resent Sepa- rate Schools mete eae eee Te, school and also sent a delegation with resolutions to the School Board meet- ing last May, when colored teachers were appointed for the “all-colored” school. The N. A, A. C. P. voted all the funds in their local treasury to be donated to the league as a begin- ning of the funds to finance the legal fight of the league. Since then over $1200 has been raised by the league thru voluntary contributions. Eleven colored teachers, who were designated as the teaching corps of the “Jim Crow Fulton School” are being hauled to_and from the school, guarded by the police. All white teachers and pupils who formerly taught and were pupils in this school have been withdrawn and transferred to other schools, making this an “all- colored school” both in teachers and pupils, while there are nearly 200 white children who live in this school district. Colored pupils who formerly went to other districts adjoining are now compelled ¢o attend this “Jim Crow School” in order to take the place of the white pupils, who have been “illegally transferred.” Principal Ralph Bullok is colored. He and the teachers were attacked by their own people on their way to school because they are unwelcome in this city and have accepted positions over the protest of 90 per cent of the colored tax-payers. This attack would have been a- voided if the colored teachers, aside from putting themselves in opposition to the colored population here, had refrained from making expression of defiance, ridicule, and had not been THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNESATURDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1922 grade teachers. They are also in open collusion with the superintendent of the schools who is trying to force the colored people to accept the school and send their children to this school. Nearly every home where these col- ored teachers have residence has been stoned at night during the past month, ‘The league does not know who did that. The teachers stay because the superintendent must keep them or pay the amount of their salaries out of his ‘own pocket, as they have contracts for a year. Their stay here is only because of the “money” involved in their going. ‘The Civil Right’s Protective League is operating upon a program of law ‘and order and was much embarrassed jin the recent flare-up out at the school last week when the teachers were attacked. However, they feel that this clash could have been avoid- ed if the teachers had refrained from taunting the pickets, and making oth- er insulting remarks. The clash could have been avoided if the police de- partment could have placed a fair and neutral officer on duty out at the school, Instead, they sent a man who is termed the “meanest officer on the force” out there to keep order. Con- stantly he did many things unbecom- ing an officer and at times was rough and threatening to the women pickets. The colored people feel that the city authorities are backing the superin- tendent by giving police protection to a superintendent and his teaching corps, that has been declared illegal and unlawful, and they themselves in that instance are not contributing their support to “law and order.” A defiance of law and order on the one hand begets a defiance on the other, hence the inevitable happened—a near riot. The commonwealth’s attorneys, county and state have each tried to pass the buck on this question. ‘The state is just beginning to show its hand in an attempt to arrest. colored parents in that district for not send- ing their children to some school in accordance to the state Bing Compul- sory Education Law which went in effect last year, which compels atten- dance until 18 instead of 16 years of age. ‘The city prosecutor has said that he expects to use his strength against any who defy law and order in this affair. The county prosecutor is about to change office as a new one has been elected. ‘The city solicitor has been acting for the school board, but now is requesting aid because it is taking up too much of his time and is too big a job for one man, ‘The Judge of of the common pleas court has not issed any order to the sheriff, to compel the attendance of Colored children to this “Jim Crow” School, although he has issued a tem- porary injunction against the Civil Rights Protective League, who asked that the Fulton School again be mixed in teachers and pupils, as previously, and that school be declared illegal and closed up. The judge declares that he has no jurisdiction over the school board and cannot proceed to execute his. own injunction unless contempt proceedings are instituted by the Civil Rights League. The attorneys for the league, which is fighting the “Jim Grow” school, differ with the judge on this legal technicality and exect to file contempt proceedings after the hearing of the permanent ‘injunction, which will be soon. ‘The School controversy matter was indirectly the cause of Clark County electing Democratic commissioners, and it is estimated by the Cincinnati ‘Times-Star that over 2500 Democratic votes were cast in Clark County by Negroes on account of the school is- sue, Carmi Thompson, candidate for governor, Republican, and the choice of the administration in Washington, was defeated by Vic Donahey, Dem- ocrat, and a Democratie lieutenant- governor was elected, This was partly due to the pulicity given by colored newsapers in this State to the school controversy here in Springfield. Mr. Neval Thomas of Washington de- serves some of this credit. It is thought by many in this state that “segregation” is a product of the Re- publican machine in this state. Dur- ing the war over 500,000 Negroes were induced to come from the South under the guise of “labor-shortage,” but really this was only a manipu- COHEN'S NOMINATION BLOCKED ‘The nomination by President Hard- ing of Walter S. Cohen of New Or- leans to be surveyor of customs at that port was blocked in the Senate Monday by senators Ransdell and Broussard of Louisiana.

But why? Because of the harmonious blending of colors, and of light and shade; the figures and various parts harmonize one with the other. Without har- mony it would be a blur, and not give this soul-satisfying pleasure. Awed, inspired, we stand before a great marble pile, wrought by human genius into a glorious palace. What a deep indefinable pleasure is awaken- ed in our innermost beings as we contemplate its majesty. See those massive columns, those broad arches, those wide-sweeping stairways. Each part of this grand structure seems to fit, to belong just where it is. In- stinetively we feel it is so. Harmony! Harmony! This is the principle which is the very being of this masterpiece. Without it we should be looking with disgust upon an ugly, incongruous mass of stone. Again, let us turn our eyes to na- ture. See the noble mountains piere- ing the sky, the valleys, the river winding its way like a silver thread to the distant sea. Presently, like a wall of fire, the sun sinks into the western sky, touching everything with its waning glory: then the moon's silver crescent become visible, so bright, yet so soft; we feel all is just right and couldn't possibly be ar- ranged more beautifully. All this is aay the fundamental prineiple of all perfection; the secret of the beauty of mountain and valley, sky and sea, the trees, flowers, song of birds—the world! aye! the whole uni- verse! ‘Thus it is with music, that beautiful art which comes nearer to touching the chords of the soul than any other, Without harmony in music our ears would be assailed with a jangling dis- cord; music would be monotonous in the extreme. It would lose its sweet- ness, its appealing power, its pleas- ing qualities. Harmony is the very foundation of music. What a grand thing for the music teacher, the player or the singer, to have a full and complete knowledge of this beautiful and interesting sub- ject. No one should be permitted to teach music unless he or she under- stands the principles and laws of har- mony. How can one teach intelligently who does not understand its gram- mar? For harmony is to musie what grammar is to language. To express your thoughts or to use any language correctly, it is necessary to be familiar with the rules that govern the correct position and use of words, the relation of one word to the other in the sen- tence. Just imagine one of our pub- lie school teachers trying to teach English without knowing anything about its grammar, It would be preposterous. So it is with those un- dertaking to teach music, A knowl- edge of harmony is absolutely neces- sary to attain any degree of success. What does Harmony do? It enables you— To analyze such musie as you play, and therefore, to have a far better appreciation of the beauties of that music, and present it to an audience or explain it more intelligently. _ To read with greater ease music you have to play or sing. To correct any errors which may ap- pear in the printing, and often in the writing of music, To judge of the quality of music, and so gain material assistance in the selection of music for playing. To transpose ai sigth more rapidly. To decide quickly what notes in a chord or chords in piano playing to omit for small hands, or what notes to double, in organ playing especially, so as to render a passage more effec- tive. To harmonize any ordinary work correctly and effectively if you have talent for composition, which the study of Harmony cannot fail to bring out. * To modulate from one key into an- other—a thing a musician is often called upon to do in the exigencies of his profession. ‘To determine the key or keys of a composition at any time—not only the key that the piece or song or movement may be written in, but also, what is just as important, the different keys passed through. 'To memorize much more readily. A Few Questions in Elementary Harmony What is musical sound? Describe an unmusical sound? How is our tonal system construct- 2d? What is an octave? What is pitch?
