Information received by the Government indicates a recrudescence of the campaign of misrepresentation and defamation of Mexicans and other dark skinned Races by the use of motion pictures. Among those reflecting directly upon the Mexicans are the film "La Pradera Rajo" (The Red Country) now showing in France; and "Mexico Barbora" (Barbarious Mexico), showing in New York. The scenes in these productions are calumnious and defamatory and a libel and slander upon the Mexican Government and people. The Interior and Treasury Departments have been instructed not to permit any pictures of this or similar nature to be shown in Mexico. LOCAL BUSINESS MEN TO HAVE A BIG CARNIVAL Community Centers Band to Be Big Feature-Will Last Two Days, Mar. 12-13 The business men of Washington are planning a big carnival or symposium to be held at Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, March 12th and 13th. This event promises to be one of the biggest events of its kind ever held here. The object of the carnival is to stimulate more interest in Negro business. The movement has the backing of practically the entire body of business men. A feature of the carnival will be the appearance of Prof. Miller's Community Centers band in a special concert each night. The Community centers band is considered one of the best bands of its kind in the country. Prof. Miller, the leader, has made many changes during the winter months, and because this is the first concert of the year, many new features will be presented. In addition to the band, the program will be made up of some of the best known business men in the city. A different program will be rendered each night. All business men are asked to participate in the carnival and help make it a great success. There will be no admission charges and there will be nothing to sell. Refreshments will be served free to the public each night. Everybody is invited to attend. RUFUS G. BYARS NOW IN PHILADELPHIA It is stated that Mr. Rufus G. Byars, who has at various times been connected with a number of theatres in this city, and who recently engaged in the undertaking business with Mr. Gaskins at 1015 U street northwest, is now employed in Philadelphia by John Gibson, owner of the Dunbar theatre of that city. Mr. Byars' last venture in this city was his employment by the owners of the Hiawatha Theatre as manager, which relationship was terminated some weeks ago. During Mr. Byars' theatrical career in this city, he was connected with nearly every theatre in the city, his first connection being with Andrew J. Thomas at the Howard theatre. He was next employed by the Murray Brothers at the Dunbar, Foraker and Hiawatha theatres, which connections he was forced to sever because of his connections with the Lincoln theatre, at which theatre he was lessee, general manager and director general for several months. WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, MARCH 3, 1923 SCHOOL SUPT. IS MEMBER OF KU KLUX KLAN Present School Trouble Now Believed To Have Been Inspired By Klan Springfield, Ohio. (Special)—In a recent raid on the local headquarters of the Ku Klux Klan made by Police Chief R. E. O'Brien and members of his force, all the documents, records and regalia of the order were taken. In looking over the roster of members, the names of George E. McCord, superintendent of the city schools, and Dr. S. R. Hutchings and H. C. Copenhaver, members of the School Board were found. When asked by the authoriites about his membership in the Klan, Supt., McCord is alleged to have admitted that he was a member. The two members of the School Board were non-committal, although their names were on the books as regular members. The fact that Supt. McCord and Dr. S. R. Hutchings and H. C. Copenhaver are connected with the Klan, throws some light on their motive for trying to establish in Springfield a separate school. The trouble started last fall, when Supt. McCord ordered all colored children sent to the Fulton School, and withdrew all white students who were attending school in this building. Immediately the colored people protested and began a bitter fight which recently culminated in a great victory for them. The fight centered around the school board and Supt., McCord. It was he who was so insistent on forcing the colored children to attend the jim-crow school. The colored citizens organized the Civil Rights Protective League and began one of the most notable fights for their rights in the history of the race. They secured a: injunction against Superintendent McCord and the School Board, preventing them from transferring the students; later they succeeded in closing the jim-crow school until the court could decide the case. In the election of last November, the League gave its vote to a Democratic Judge and put him over. This judge took his seat January first and within one month after he was sworn he handed down a verdict that will long be remembered in Clark County. The Judge's order restrained permanently the School Board from transferring any of the students on account of their race or color from one school to another. At the time the fight was being waged, it was not known that McCord was a Kluxer, but his attitude toward the race was so extremely bitter, that he was charged with being one. Just whether the superintendent will be permitted to hold his job in the light of the recent raid, could not be ascertained. A small group of Negroes supported McCord in his fight for jim-crow schools, and now that he has been proven a member of the Klan, just how they will justify their position is not known. WAGE EARNERS MEET AND ORGANIZE On Thursday February 22nd an organization meeting of the District Branch, National Association of Wage Earners was held at Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A., building at 8 o'clock. Officers were elected and the local unit began its part in the great work of improving conditions among working women, through an effective organization composed of all classes. Miss Nannie H. Burroughs National President, gave an encouraging report of the progress of the work LONELY SOLDIER INHERITS $25,000 Ft. Huachuca, Ariz. Feb. 28, (Pacific News Bureau.) John Paul Jones, 1st. class private, of the 10th United States Cavarly stationed at Ft. Huachuca, has been notified by a reliable firm of New York attorneys, that he has inherited the sum of $25,00, $16,000 in cash, $9,00 in real estate from the estate of a deceased uncle. Altho but eighteen years of age, Private Jones has considered that the best investment possible with his newly acquired wealth is the acquisition of an education.

C. A., work here. This places a greater responsibility upon the colored people of Washington to show that they can support the Phyllis Wheatley. Mrs. Frances Boyce, the president, the Board of Directors and entire management are colored women. This organization is unique in being the first Y. W. C. A., of the two having direct affiliation with the National Y. W. C. A. Headquarters in New York. The second is in Little Rock, Ark. In May 1905 the Booklovers, a literary club of colored women, seeing the need of proper lodging places for women and girls who were without home influences, organized a Y. W. C. A. Mrs. Bessie G.

Among the pioneers who sacrificed time, energy and money in this movement were Miss E. F. G. Merritt, upon whom was put the responsibility of raising funds for financing the effort, Miss M. P. Shadda who has been treasurer for more than seventeen years and Mrs. A. E. Cromwell, the chairman of residence committee. The association has been greatly aided by Miss Eva D. Bowles, National Y. W.

Every province, and there are seven, has its peculiar physical form, and taken seperately they are interesting to note, but grouped, they remind one of our own hills and valleys, except of course, they are devoid of the natural signs of care and cultivation. In striking such a comparison, do not believe me to mean the more picturesque scenery which America has, but Palestine, to me is like the state of California, up-hill, down-hill; but with twice as much variety of scenery and climate. All America, though, has no such remarkable plateaus as Palestine.

Miss Bowles has brought to this organization the ideals and ever-widening program of the Young Women's Christian Association. In 1918 when war conditions made an enlargement of the work a necessity, the War Work Council appropriated $200,000 for the Y. W. C. A. for colored women in Washington. Miss Elizabeth C. Carter who had attracted attention to her management of a home for the aged at New Bedford, Mass., was sent to superintend the erection of the building and the installment of equipment. There stands today at 9th street and Rhode Island avenue, a most beautiful, modern building, a credit not only to Y. W. C. A. work but the city of Washington. There the women and girls have spiritual, educational and recreational advantages which make for happier, healthier, better womanhood.

Spivey, dentist with offices at 801 Florida Avenue northwest, has brought to light one of the biggest scandals of the year. Dr. Spivey's disappearance was discovered last week by patients who went to the doctor's office to keep appointments for treatment. On not being able to find the doctor in, an investigation was started and it was then that his absence was discovered. Just when the doctor left and where he is, is a matter of deep mystery. In addition to discovering that Dr. Spivey was missing it was also discovered that the doctor and his wife were in a bitter fight for a divorce; he having filed divorce proceedings in Alexandria, Va., alleging desertion, and she, filing here in Washington, alleging adultery. Dr. Spivey is a prominent dentist here and was an instructor in the Dental Infirmary at Howard until the announcement of his resignation this week. The doctor's matrimonial troubles seemingly began some time in the fall of 1921. In November of that year, it is alleged he left his wife and home at 2613 Sherman Ave. N. W. Being without any means of support, Mrs. Spivey was forced to go to court in the spring of 1922 and seek seperate maintenance. This was granted her by the court. The doctor paid this maintenance for a while, but in the fall of 1922, he journeyed across the river to Alexandria and filed papers for absolute divorce on the grounds of desertion. It is alleged that Dr. Spivey spent several nights in Alexandria in order to establish a residence there. He sent some friends notices giving his alleged address as 227 W St., Alexandria, Va. (There is no such street as this in Alexandria) However, the doctor continued his office at 801 Florida Avenue, and supposedly generally lived in Washington. This action caused his wife to employ an attorney and on January 23, 1923, she filed a petition for a divorce on statutory grounds which in the District is adultery. She named one Mabel Thomas as the co-respondent and asked for alimony. In an agreement between the attorneys on both sides, it was agreed out of court that Dr. Spivey would pay a sum of $80 a month alimony. He paid the first installment February 1st of $40. On the 15th when the second installment came due, he failed to pay it and it was on or about this time that his disappearance was noted. After leaving his wife Dr. Spivey lived mostly in his office on Florida Avenue. It is alleged that he and Miss Mabel Thomas met frequently. In fact he stated that she was his office girl for some time. It is further alleged that the doctor admitted to his wife that he no longer cared for her. He is also alleged to have admitted his relation with Miss Thomas. Tuesday of this week, Howard University officials stated that Dr. Spivey failed to show up on Monday at the infirmary to teach his class; later in the week the business office gave out the infomation that Dr. Spivey had resigned. This information was made known to his wife's attorney, Attorney James Cobb with offices in the National Benefit Insurance Co., Building on F street northwest. dur- ished pro- men ts in As his office is fully equipped and everything is practically undisturbed, Dr. Spivey is expected to put in his appearance very soon. Mrs. Spivey is living with her bro- ther-in-law at 2615 Sherman Ave., Northwest. LOCALS AND SOCIETY PAGE TWO Rev. E. D. W. Jones on invitation of the A. M.

According to a detailed list sent by the Mexican Embassy in Washington, to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, twenty-six Mexicans were murdered in the United States during the year 1922.

"The Seventh Guest" a mystery play in three acts, headed by Andrew Bishop and Cleo Desmond, supported by an all star cast played to a well filled house Monday and joying a noticeable increase in attendance since. The entire play takes place at the Hermitage, a country home of Paul Scott( Babe Townsend) where he is giving a week end party on the anniversary of his fathers' death which occurred there with hope of solving it. Things begin to happen when the seventh guest is mysteriously murdered. Everyone of the party seems from the Jap servant (Lawrence Criner) up to the host. In fact this guest was present the night Scott's father was killed; so each one suspects the other of the killing. The tense moments are relieved by Kate Baker, Goldie Cisco, and Harry Plater. Isabelle Jackson's part is small. Bishop, Cleo Desmond, Townsend and Criner handle most of the dramatic situations until in the final act where antoher mystery has to be solved that of the murdered host which occurred during the season act.

NEW GORDON PHOTODRAMA APPEALING Mothers the world over will appreciate the trials and tribulations that beset Vera Gordon in her latest vehicle, "Your Best Friend," a Warner Brothers production, which is being shown at the Broadway Theatre all this week. The statement that mothers will appreciate the picture should also include the young folks and the middle aged folks. For the film is so utterly different from the average run of cinema attractions that it at once captures the interest and holds it until the final fade-out Miss Gordon typifies the mothers who give and love and sympathize with their children, when it's brightest, warmest or otherwise. In this respect her actions are universally applied to all mothers. But the story contains a deeper significance. It is a clean, wholesome plot, and in its unfolding in also serves to give an insight into socially ambitious daughters. "Your Best Friend" tells the story of a widow who is transported from a modest home to a rich one. In her rich environment she sees her daughter-in-law recklessly spending her money, in addition to that furnished by her faithful and unsuspecting son. SEE OR CALL J.L.

THEATRE NOTES In the last few years the artistic genius of the Negro race has become more and more recognized. Their heritage of musical instinct and sense of rhythm is evidenced by such men as Coleridge-Taylor and his now famous pupil, Clarence Cameron White, the noted violinist and composer, whose compositions have won recognition by Kreisler and other noted artists. In the field of poetry, Paul Lawrence Dunbar has won a place by the rhythmic beauty of his verse, Charles Gilpin has delighted crowds by the dramatic genius that is another inherent gift of his race. Tanner, the celebrated painter, was recently decorated by the French Academy in recognition of his art. When one considers the brief time in which the genius of the colored race has found chance for expression, such a galaxy of stars is impressive. By many, the old spirituals and melodies are regarded as one of the most distinctive contributions of America to the music of the world. A pageant, "The Open Door," will be given at the Lincoln Theatre in March, at which time Washington music lovers will be given a chance to hear this appealing music and to gage the aptitude of the Negro for dignified expression, dramatically and rhythmically. The pageant is a story of the race, told in a series of symbolic scenes, from the jungle dance and barbaric ritual, through slavery and oppression up to the present day, when the door is open to education and larger opportunity. Musically, it is built around the "spirituals" and plantation melodies. This "wild sweet music of the children of disappointment," as DuBois has called it, will be sung by a chorus of fifty voices. Clarence Cameron White, who played here two weeks ago to a delighted audience, has arranged these and other melodies into an orchestral background for the symbolism of the pageant. Mr. White will come from Oberlin, Ohio, to conduct the music. The play will open with his own "Bandanna Sketches." The orchestra will play Dett's "Juba Dance" and Coleridge-Taylor's "Take Nabajii." Rachmaninoff, Delibes, Grieg and German will be worked into an exotic and sometimes barbaric setting of the story. The pageant was written by Alice Holdship Ware, the wife of the President of Atlanta University, and the proceeds will go to that institution.

M. a * j : THE FIELD OF SPORTS Why Delay Naming Howard’s Coaches? (703 ieee bees New Era in Local Baseball The coming of Ben Taylor, a man of many years’ experience as a player, manager and magnate, and by no means through in either branch, should mean a new era in the baseball affairs of this city. It has always been maintained that local fandom would rally to the support of a Race baseball team possessing class. Ben Taylor can be depended upon to put nothing but a high caliber nine on the field here this summer. The Indianapolis A, B. C.’s under the Taylor brothers’ managemertt has stood for years in the first flight of baseball combinations, including major league teams as well. Many former A. B. C.’s and other well-known present day stars, now in their prime, will represent Washington this summer. With the assurance of a local high class aggregation meeting clubs of established worth such as the Hillsdales, Cuban Stars, Black Sox and Lincoln, Royal and Original Bacharach Giants, it only remains for the fans to do their bit. The popularity of baseball is made. But the future of Negro baseball is dependent upon the Race. We have for years jammed ‘our way through the gates of league parks to see white players battle for supremacy. We have overlooked the prejudices that Black players have been subjected to because of our love for this national sport. But each year it is exemplified that Colored players and teams are as good as the major and absolute proof of the same is given when one reviews the exhibition of last fall when Ryan and Scott, New York Giant pitchers, who’ held Babe Ruth and other Yankees during the world series, were lambasted to all parts of the field and defeated by Colored teams: or when the Kansas City American Association team dropped the post-season series to the Kansas City Monarchs (Colored). And one might go on relating evidences of the prowess of our players in comparison to the whites of the majors. Taking these things into consideration, it certainly behooves us to back solidly the team that will represent this city on the diamond this summer; not alone from a local but a racial stand- point as well. ‘ PAGE FOUR THE FI Why Delay Naming Since December first, football fol- lowers of Howard University Have a- waited anxiously for an announcement of the man who will coach the local varsity next fall. On the above date Dr. Morrison's contract terminated. Mr. Louis Watson on January first became Howard’s Director of Physi- cal Education, a position left vacant through the resignation of Major Dean on November first. When Watson's appointment was announced no reference was made as to the next varsity coach, although it was made clear that the Directorship of Physical Education did not include the coach's job. Time is approaching for Spring practice and in addition the delay in naming the new mentor will mean greater difficuly for him to locate able assistants. ‘There is apparently no reason for this delay other than the rumow that there is a’ difference of Concerning Ben Taylor That local fans may be better ac- quainted with the man who will pilot the destiny of their first real represen- tative baseball team a short history of Ben Taylor's noteworthy career is Opens 3 p. Daily Sundays 3 p. next coach, ‘This same situation exists in base- ball. Howard has for years depen- ded upon students who play profes- ‘sional baseball in the summer to ‘coach the baseball team. These stu- ients ineligible for inter-collegiate baseball because of their professional status, have ¥oluntarily rendered ser- viees to the team.without any remu- neration.

ANOTHER VICTORY FOR ARMSTRONG Before a capacity housé on Monday Armstrong again defeated a worth; opponent, in Morgan’College, of Bal timore. The performance of Day, o! Morgan stamped him as the best flo: ‘man seen in the High School game: ‘this year. His speed on the floor, ex: pert dribbling uncanny shooting an¢ general cleverness makes him an un usual exponent of the indoor game But unfortunstely, the game was lost thru his tendency to play the game too much as an individual. Berry, of Armstrong has surely reached his zenith as a player and is now pushing Turner for highest hon. ors. The final score of 80 to 19 does not indicate the closeness of the game which was replete with thrills pro- duced by both teams. This game was marked by extreme cordiality among the contestants and made the work of the referee com- paratively easy. To date, Armstrong has won every game played on the home floor.

There are lots of people wh» would like to have such a pass. In fact there are so many baseball fans who desire passes until the management of the club has decided that it could not give all of them passes, but, that they would give away absolutely free, ONE season’s pass. Now then ,the big question is, “Whe is going to be the lucky person to ge this pass?” In order to make it fair and give everybody an even chance to win the pass, it was decided to give it to the fan who suggests the most appropri- ate name for the new club. In baseball all clubs must have a name and as Washington intends tc have real club-this season, (infact Grand Reopening Oriental Gardens 9th and R Sts. N. W. Monday, March 5 THREE ENTERTAINERS ETHELENE JORDAN ADAH SMITH VIRGINIA JOHNSON the like of which has never before ‘been seen here), ‘the team must have a snappy name.

Prepare now to attend those good games this summer and think of how much better you can enjoy them when you don’t have to pay. Don’t fail to send in a name! Who knows that you may win. The very name you may think little of may win you the big prize, so send in a name, no matter what it is. ‘The local papers are cooperating with the management of the newly organized baseball club in assisting them to find a suitable name for the team, and these papers guarantee the fairness of the contest.

ROBIN HOOD ROBBED RICH TO FEED POOR According to legend Robin Hood, he of infinite exploits of matchless valor in the days of chivalry eight hundred years gone, hit upon a clever method of avoiding the odium of rob- bery when. he audaciously dedicated himself to the occupation of “robbing the rich to feed the poor.” He made a practice of inviting wealthy men to dine with him and he played the part of a most hos- pitable host, affording his guests feasts on the best of high-class edi- bles, including rare venison and choice oe So 2 = isp Pe te ae ee Ee Pe esas) bs Ee gee es ae ee 5 La ao * ab ee } “ eee pte ’ 4 ‘ La Fe Ai aa HOWARD, ,..

It is claimed that following each of these incursions on purse and pelf, ‘there svould be an era of plenty in whatever district Robin Hood hap- ‘pened to be, because he would always divide the spoils with the needy, his generosity and chavity being without parallel. Naturally, he was much be- loved by the poor and just as natural- ly he was feared and hated by those better blessed financially, But his idea of making the fiddlers ‘pay when they assembled around his festive board was unique to say the least, and if it did lack’ in legality, ‘it did not fail to do good in quarters ‘most needing a little of the good of a sincere helping-hand. As played by Douglas Fairbants in his elaborate sereen production, “Rob- in Hood,” a United Artists release ‘coming to the Broadway Theatre next Sunday, this character compels un- stinted admiration, his charmingly ro- mantic penchant being especially stressed in this, notable characteriza- ‘tion, which bids fair to live in cinema history as one of the most conspicious triumphs ever attained by. any star in any histrionic effort.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Editor Washington Tribune, 920 U St., City Feb. 25th '23 Dear Sir: I want you to please give this short article a place in your valuable columns. After reading your splendid article on the Southern dinner speech, I wish to say a few words. First I want to ask the colored brothers and sisters to stop singing, praying and allowing it to be preached to them and their children, "you may have all this beautiful world white folks, if you just give us Jesus." For I find some of this world mixed with Jesus is a far better proposition Brother, religion in disguise has done the Negro more harm than any one thing since he was set free. I had learned from reading the religious writings of that gentleman, (Bryan) to believe he was one of the most Christianized of American white men, and thought often that he should be a preacher, but now I am at a loss to know just what to think he is or could be. In his case actions speak louder than words. I am wondering is there anything in Christianity, if so, it is so badly handled and managed that the religious effects are often lost. Look wise colored brother and say but little. I know you see the sign of the times. Get something else. J. S. WILLIAMS 1207-a S. Capitol St. P.S. Noting the unbiased stand that the Tribune takes on the issues confronting the race, I am constrained to say it is growing to be the best weekly paper in the City. I hear it on all sides. J.S.W. Mr. Robert N. Starke of 806 24th Street, N. W., who was sick for several months, died Friday morning, February 23rd. The funeral services were held at Union Wesley A. M. E. Zion church, Dr. E. W. D.

God bless the women. Who remembers when Negro youths need to stand on the corners at night BRENTWOOD Md., in THE LIMELIGHT By George W. McCorkie The readers of The Tribune will please excuse the long silence and seeming negligence on the part of the writer. It has been quite a while since I "took my pen in hand to drop you a few lines." With the exception of a few verses whispered to me by the Muse, I have done but very little writing since you last heard from me several months ago. I have been doing a great deal of thinking, but fortunately or unfortunately, you could not hear the thinking. It really does appear that I have been in my winter quarters. Now, since February with her brevity has said "Adieu," and since March with her balmy days has made her entrance, the writer felt that this would be the opportune time to emerge from his state of lethargy. On last Sunday morning, I skipped over to Brentwood, Md. My trip to Brentwood on this occasion was especially to attend services at the Brentwood A. M. E. Zion church of which many of you have heard a great deal. An edifice is now in progress and when completed it is estimated will cost more than twenty-six thousand ($26,000) dollars. The late Rev. Chesterfield Jackson, with the support of the good people of Brentwood and vicinity, white and colored, and of friends in this city as well, succeeded in constructing a building that is not only a credit to the community in which it is locaed, but a credit also, to the race. The main auditorium of the church has not been completed, but plans are now being laid for its completion. The services at present are being held in the basement of the church. The work on this church has been accomplished in the past two years. The writer arrived in time for sabbath school. The superintendent, Mrs. Thomas, seemingly thought that I was some peculiar growth, asked me to take charge of a class. I consented to do so and expounded the scriptures to the best of my ability. During that time, Rev. Perry, an evangelist walked in. He, too, must have thought that I was some peculiar growth, for he wanted to know if I was a preacher. Of course, I had to answer in the negative. Many of the readers of the Tribune, I am quite sure, have heard something of the life and work of Rev. Chesterfield Jackson who died the 25th of last December. Rev. Jackson was a devoted christian who spent his life in "going about doing good." His death left the church without a shepherd. In looking around to find someone to take charge of the well begun work, Bishop J. S. Caldwell chose Rev. Wm. W. Todd, A.B., A.M., S.T.B. of Lincoln University 1909. Although a young man, Rev. Todd's strong personality impresses one that he is a man of true christian devotion. Brentwood should feel proud to have this strong young man to join its ranks. He, himself, should feel it an opportunity of his life to be located in a community where there is such a large field for service. After the morning services the writer was invited to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wallace where he was very cordially received. The Washington Tribune is well represented in Brentwood by Mr. Hammond Thomas, a Freshman at Howard University. Mr. Thomas is very highly respected by all the people of this little town. My visit to Brentwood was certainly a pleasant one. STAGE WHISPERS "Shuffle Along" closed a successful engagement at the Olympic Theatre, Chicago. They are now playing in Milwaukee. "Our Gang" the Pathe comedy series, featuring Sunshine Sammy, his sister Farina and other juveniles, will be continued to be made for another year as they are proving a great hit. The entire "Shuffle Along" company attended a matinee performance of "Elsie," (playing at the Illinois Theatre, Chicago) which is using nine musical numbers by Sissle and Blake. Chas. Gilpin whose company was playing in Oakland recently overslept himself, causing the management to refund the money to a large matinee audience. Moss and Frye who have been playing the Keith's circuit for several seasons have been booked over the Loew circuit at an increased salary. No matter how big a fool a man may be; or how much of a liar; or how ugly he is—some woman can see a bit of the good and the beautiful in him. Who remembers when Negro youths used to stand on the corners at night and harmonize with these old tunes: "Good Morning Carrie"; "Under the Bamboo Tree"; "Old Man Hawkins"; "Mr. Dooley"; "Won't You Come Home, Bill Bailey?"; "Hello, My Baby , Hello, My Lady"; "Here Comes the Fishman"; "Lena"; "Any Rags"; "Build Me a Scaffold"; and "Just One Word of Consolation"? In reference to wreck (fool) driving it is better for an auto owner to say he has succeeded excessively than to say he has exceeded successfully. Have you noticed that nearly Everyman and most Every Mann love to argue with each other? What is gained by either is not known. Everyman, Esq., is never wrong, and Mr. Mann is infallible. "Oh, how often could I correct their errors for—for 'tis I alone who am always right," so thinketh Other Mann. * * * * Virginians and Washingtonians are very gallant. On the car the other day I heard the following, "Lady, here's my seat, I get off at the next corner." * * * * Fresh roasted peanuts does not necessarily mean that the peanuts are fresh. There was a man in our town, He was so wondrous wise, He thought he knew all women, So he picked himself a bride. His little home was such, That I've often heard it said, That this man really squabbled, An hour after he was dead. —Park Splug Do you argue in barber shops, etc? If so, spring this one on your fellow gas flingers. Where does macaroni grow? The other fellows wont know whether it's a fruit or a vegetable any more than you. Frank Montgomery, Salem Whitney and several others who appeared in and several others that appeared in the cast of "How Come?" are no longer connected with the show. Chappelle and Stinnette who are on the Pantage's time are receiving great press notices. Johnny Hudgins has outlasted any of the comedians playing with burlesque shows nad still going big. Jim Burris continues in bad health. Burris was long associated with the "Smart Set" when S. H. Dudley was starring in that company. Whitney and Homer Tutt are rehearsing number three "Shuffle Along" company to play the eastern states and Canada. "Liza" will leave New York soon for the road. Will Marion Cook noted composer and an orchestra leader was here visiting relatives recently. Mr. Cook has been in London for two years. Coy Herndon's hoop rolling act was the stand out feature in "Chocolate Town." The Lincoln had an overflow audience on amateur night last week. The dancers seem to be in favor as they carried off the prizes. "Emperor Jones" with Chas. Gilpin is headed eastward. Last week they were in New Mexico and Kansas. "Strutting Along" the new show in San Francisco scored better the second week, playing to capacity houses at every performance. "How Come?" expects to land on Broadway in about two weeks. "Plantation Days," which played here recently, left for London last Saturday to be added to a musical show (white) called "Monkey Glands." Mary Garden, the famous opera singer, was enthusiastic in her praise of Will Vodey's musical offerings and the singing of Florence Mills, Edith Wilson and Shelton Brooks, when she visited the Plantation Cabaret, New York, last week. "Shuffle Along" puts up another record, for when the third company goes out it will be the first time in the history of showdom that there has been over two companies using the same situations. "Follow Me" is still doing well, finishing their two weeks' engagement in Kansas City last week.

A Timley Epitaph Here lies the body of Sandy Jones, His death was due to shock and woe He hurried home and met his wife, All dressed for the evening show. Maybe the reason our Negro weeklies don't have comic supplements is that our cartoonists are like old pipes. They don't draw well. Sometimes you can't tell how hard pressed a woman is because she's so well dressed.

"Apartment house owners in New York miss many tons of coal; believe theif operates with rubber shovel," news item. The general assumption is probably based on the belief that tenants would not allow the removal of coal under any other circumstances. There may be some doubt about the outcome of a "mammies monument" being erected here but the opposition certainly showed a strong come-out.

"MAMMY'S" MONUMENT vs. "MAMMY'S" SON Tuesday of this week, the Senate turned down the President's nomination of Walter Cohen, of New Orleans, for Collector of Customs for the port of New Orleans. That was the Senate's tribute to Mammy's son. Wednesday, the Senate passed John Sharp Williams' resolution authorizing the erection, by the Daughters of the Confederacy, of a monument in the District of Columbia (on Government land) to perpetuate the memory of the "Black Mammies" of the South. Quite a contrast in the demonstration of the respect for "Mammy" to that for her son. The Senate is willing to put "Mammy" on a pedestal of stone, but very much unwilling to put her son in a decent position that calls for a swivel chair. COLORED EDITOR FAVORS MONUMENT The Editor of The Norfolk Journal and Guide, favors the erection of the monument to the "Mammies" proposed by the Daughters of the Confederacy. He says: "We think it a gracious thing for the Daughters of the Confederacy to do." All right, Editor Young, we do not object to your thinking so, but we do object to the "Uncle Tom" spirit that prompts your thinking. And we are perfectly willing to have the Daughters of the Confederacy erect that monument in Norfolk, on the corner of Church and Queen streets or Church and Princess Anne; but, we do not want any such stigma here in the Capital of the Nation. We agree with Editor Young that we should erect a monument to our mothers but we will strenuously object to the erection of a "Mammy's" monument by the Daughters of the Confederacy—here in Washington.

The transfer of the Phillis Wheatley Y. W. C. A., of this city, from the white National Board of control to a local colored board of trustees is a commendable transaction that should be emulated not only by the Y. M. C. A., but by other organizations in which Negroes are dependent. There is food for that in this transaction which should appeal to every race conscious and thinking Negro. The first that is that here is a given number of colored women who have conducted their business and carried on their welfare organization so well that it has proven their ability to handle their own establishment to the extent that the National headquarters deeded the plant to the local committee and surrendered its jurisdiction and maintenance. This also proves the independences of the Negro. The race would be far better off if their organizations, to which so many Negroes are beholden, would inform them that they must look cut for themselves. No greater harm can befall a people than to make them dependent upon another race of people for the support of their own institutions. We need INDEPENDENT organizations among the race and not a single dependent one. By cutting loose from white support and guidance, Negroes will produce a new type Negro, self-respecting, self-sustaining and independent. The leaders of the race will be race picked instead of "hand-picked" by the other fellow. The Y. M. C. A., The N. A. A. C. P. and numbers of our schools should follow this lead The men of the 12th Street Branch of the Young Men's Christian Association certainly should hide their faces in shame because of this transfer of the local women.

A. amounted to $29,025 last year, which was 83 4-5 per cent self-supporting. The Y. W. Building presents a fine appearance and is exceedingly well kept. The Y.

Committee's Report Shows Desired Results (Continued from page 1) Theodore Roosevelt and Gen. John H. Sherbourne. The committee named by the Alumni Association was: Atty Isaac H. Nutter, Dr. J. H. N. Waring, Dr. W. A. Sinclair, Dr. W. L. Smith, M M. Morton, Atty. Thomas A. Johnson, and Dr. S. Leroy Morris. The memorial presented read, in part, as follows: Card of Thanks "We therefore present this Memorial to the Honorable Board of Trustees of Howard University, praying that the Trustees appoint a Committee of seven to collaborate with a like Committee from the Alumni to devise and work out a system which assures these beneficent, righteous and transcendent results. "In presenting this Memorial to your Honorable body, we are happy to feel assured that it will receive your prompt, hearty and favorable consideration. For we are asking simply for the identical rights and privileges which are cheerfully exercised by the Alumni of the great white institutions. "An authority from Harvard writes: 'The humblest Harvard graduate has a potential voice in Harvard affairs, votes for Trustees and the power of his vote extends to Overseers and thus to the President.' "An authority from Amherst writes: 'The entire Trustee Board of Amherst College is elected by the Alumni. Their voice reaches the office of President.' "An authority from Dartmouth writes: 'The Alumni elect Trustees and their power extends to the election of President.'" conglomeration the sun. Manpect to find the There are no concerts, no tures.

"Gentlemen of the Board of Trustees, we know that Howard University belongs to the Colored Race; we feel that it is the greatest inheritance of our hard struggling and terribly wronged and oppressed people. We rejoice and our hearts are all aglow over the vast and unprecedented progress and achievement of our mercilessly burdened Race in these plus fifty years of nominal freedom. "As we contemplate the future, and take thought as to our children and our children's children, and the children of the Race, and the achievements, prestige, honor and glory sure to come to our beloved Alma Mater, our heart-beats and our souls tell us Howard University can have no safer guardians than her own sons and daughters." After considering the above memorial, the two committees adopted the following resolutions which will be presented to the Board of Trustees at their next meeting in June of this year for consideration: 1. That the Alumni shall have the right to vote for Trustees by a Postal Card or other ballot to be sent to each Alumnus who can be reached. 2. That the Alumni shall have a voice in the election of President. 3. That the Board of Trustees shall at the Annual meeting in June, amend the By-laws and take such other action as will effect these results. 4. That the By-laws of the University be amended to increase the number of Trustees from 24 to 27, and that the Alumni shall have the right to choose the three additional members of the Board as follows:—(a) That one of these three, Mr. Thomas Walker, whose name was before the Board last June, shall be elected without further formality to fill the first place; (b) That a Postal Card, or other ballot, shall be taken to confirm the nomination of Mr. W. Ashbie Hawkins and Mr. Isaac H. Nutter, previously made by the General Alumni Association; that four other names shall be added to the ballot and each Alumnus shall vote for two. 5. That the Executive Secretary of the General Alumni Association shall have access to all records concerning the Alumni, their addresses, etc. If the Board of Trustees approve the above action, the General Alumni Association will have achieved the greatest victory of any Alumni in the history of Negro schools. However, the victory is by no means won yet. The resolutions are of no value unless the Board of Trustees adopt them; until then the Alumni's fight must continue. With the above accomplishments, a whole hearted awakening in the general alumni of the University is expected. Resolutions were adopted— 1.

Gradually rising up from them into what is almost the middle of the country are the mountains of Judah, mountains of Ephraim and Mount Carmel. These mountains are a literal dividing line between East and West Palestine. Just beyond them lies the Dead Sea, 1300 feet below the level of the Mediterranean. Due north of it and about 65 miles distant is the Sea of Galilee. These two inland seas are joined by the River Jordan and its tributaries. Beyond them and further into the interior, lay the Mountains of Moab, Mountains of Gilead and Mount Hermon, all of which slope gently away to the Syrian Desert. The land of Palestine comprises the provinces of Judea, Samaria, Galilee, Phoenicia, Damascus, Decapholis and Perea, which in turn comprise all the various types of land from sandy seashores and fertile valleys to lofty, barren mountains and burning desert lands. These extremely varied regions coupled with the fact that they do not exceed 80 miles in width and 250 miles in length, help to make Palestine the most remarkable part of the world. It has been called the "least of all lands" and rightly so, for had it been larger, its influence might have been less. As might be supposed, in such a land of varied conditions the inhabitants are engaged in just as varied pursuits. The chief, however, are farming and sheep raising. There are of course, the merchants and traders, seafarers, laborers, learned men, guides, servants and countless professional "do notings." But on the whole, the 700,000 persons get along to suit their fancy without much aid from the outside world and apparently not much thought of it. The most ancient methods are used in tilling the soil and grinding grain. In fact, everywhere is to be seen the most obsolete methods. It is just now and then that one glimpses an occidental touch in doing things, and always used by modern settlers. Donkeys and camels continue to be the chief beasts of burden, though the more recent and fashionable residents possess vehicles and horses. Religion is the chief interest of the inhabitants, and why shouldn't it be? Living as they do in the land where Christ lived, their every move is among the most Holy of Holies and silent influences are exerted over them that apparently shut out the worst that is worldly. Of the religious, Mohammedanism has the largest number of followers. It prescribes Friday as the Sabbath, prohibits the use of intoxicants and believes in more than one wife. Faithful Mohammedans pray/five times daily and wash their feet each time before doing so. Their women wear veils which cover the lower part of the face, the eyes alone being exposed. Among them marriage is easy and so is divorce, a word with a little money being enough to consummate either by a desiring husband. The real cities of Palestine are few and present a sight far different from our cities and the scenes may be contrasted to the quite simple pastoral life of the small towns and back-hill settlements of that land. In them may be found all the pictures of the Orient. A succession of narrow, crooked streets, always filled with brilliantly attired people; low stone dwellings; a row of disarranged, but well stocked shops; countless minarets and spires piercing the sky-line, suggesting the numerous mosques and churches; bazaars, beggars and a conglomeration of everything under the sun. Many things one would expect to find there are not to be seen. There are no parks or theatres, no concerts, no libraries, clubs or lectures. Simple things like soda-water, light lunches, tooth-paste and shoe polish are unknown to shop keepers. Only the bare necessities of an antiquated people are carried. Everywhere the Holy Land is spoken of in superlative terms and rightly so, for with its large number of biblically historical points, its singular geographic traits. its sacred importance, it is the one such place in the world—holy, enchanted and alluring.
