NOTED SOLDIER LAID TO REST ON NATIVE SOIL AMONG FORMER COMRADES First in Local Circulation. Vol. 3, No. 3 Nation NOTED SOLDIER REST ON NA AMONG FORM Impressive Ceremonies Mark Last Rites—Many Floral Tributes Sent Ohio Legislature Passes Resolutions and Sends Special Delegation The body of Colonel Charles Young, U.S.A., began its last journey Friday from Union Station Terminal to Arlington National Cemetery, where it was interred among the Nation's Honored Defenders. On fame's eternal Camping ground, Their silent tents are spread, And Glory guards with solemn round The bivouac of the dead. Colonel Young, the first and only one of his race to attain the rank of Colonel in the regular army, died January 6th, 1922 at Lagos, Southern Nigeria (West Coast of Africa), while on duty as military attache to the Liberian Republic. At the time of his death his body was interred with military honors by all British troops on duty in and about Lagos. Due to the health regulations, lack of travel facilities, etc., it was only this spring that the body could be removed to the United States. An Honor Service, sponsored by the American Legion, was held at the College of the City of New York, Sunday May 27th. At this service Honorable Theodore Roosevelt, Asst. Secretary of the Navy was the principal speaker. In Philadelphia the body was held over a few hours for appropriate services in memory of Colonel Young. Here Friday amid thousands of mourners was written the final chapter in the life of this illustrious character. A cortege of military and civilian veteran bodies escorted the body over the following route: Union Station Plaza to Delaware Avenue; Delaware Avenue south to D Street; D Street to First Street; First Street south to Penn. Avenue; west on Pennsylvania Avenue to East Executive Avenue; north on East Executive Avenue to Pennsylvania Avenue, west on Pennsylvania Avenue to M street to Key Bridge; thence to Fort Myer and Arlington Cemetery. The regular army troops, consisting of three troops of Cavalry, service detachment, band and firing squad received the cortege at Fort Myer and escorted the body to the Amphitheatre, where a large crowd witnessed the services and later, the interment in the southern section of the Cemetery. Many floral tributes from all over the country were sent. A special car was necessary to carry them in the procession. Howard University students send a very large and beautiful wreaths as well as a other groups of school children. Several special delegation from other cities attended the ceremonies some coming from as far as Chicago and Kansas City. The State of Ohio, Col. Youngs home state sent an official delegation to represent that state at the services. All school children were given a half holliday in order that they could attend the ceremonies. Pensylvania Ave. with its many shrine decorations was crowded with people as the funeral party winded its way to beautiful Arlington Cemetery. A clear sky and a cool breeze made the day an ideal one.

Major Moton's Prestige Greatly Hurt By His Wobbling As To The Personnel Of The Veterans Hospital At Tuskegee MIGRATIONNORTH NEW MOVEMENT CONTINUING AT TO BUSINESS RAPID RATE ON U STREET Southern States Making A Desperate Effort to Check Movement (Crusader Service) New York, May 31—The migration of Negro workers from the savage South to the industrial centers of the North has been closely investigated by the National Industrial Conference Board, 10 East 39th Street, this city, now says that in the last six months more than 100,000 Negroes left the South and its barbarities for the North and its opportunities. "This movement has to a considerable extent been along vertical lines," the statement says, "Negroes from Georgia and the Carolinas drifting North to the Atlantic seaboard states and New England; Negroes from Alabama and Tennessee moving northward in the Middle Western States, and Negroes from Louisiana, Tennessee and Arkansas finding new homes in the States further West. Speaking of the methods used to bring Negro workers North, where the movement is not spontaneous (as it is in many cases), the Board finds that "Two methods have been used in the main: first, employers have sent labor agents into the Southern States, who in turn, have employed local agents for the purpose of encouraging Negroes to move northward with the lure of free transportation, steady employment and high wages. The Southern States have restricted the activities of these labor agents by placing large license fees upon their activities and in finding those who attempted to evade. In other cases, agents attempting to induce Negroes to leave have been driven out and threatened. The second method has been indirect employee solicitation by word of mouth, or letter. Negroes already employed who have come from the South write voluntarily or are asked to write to their friends and relatives in the South. They describe the conditions and urge their friends to follow them to the North. "This method is bringing thousands of Negroes almost daily into the industrial centers of the North. The consequences of this movement, particularly from the cotton-raising States, have already raised the fears of Southern employers and planters who depend on an ample supply of Negro labor to get their work done." No Insuperable Problem "On the other hand," the statement continues, "the influx of Negroes into Northern communities has brought with it some very definite problems, the first of which is the relation of the white and Negro races. Observers of both races, however, who have been in close touch with the situation, believe that this is by no means an insuperable problem. The so-called race riots which have occurred in various places (two years ago) cannot be directly traced to industrial rivalry. In fact, the contrary seems to be the case. White and Negro labor of the same grade apparently work together peacefully. There is scarcely more friction between Office: 920 U St., N. W. Charles 's Prestige G ling As To Th rans Hospital NEW MOVEMENT TO BUSINESS ON U STREET Number of Well Established Firms Locate in New Building The new building recently completed at the corner of 11th and U Sts., N.W., marks another mile stone in the progress of Negro business along U Street. The building is quite an addition to this Street and is filled with progressive Negro business and street noir, beginning at 11th Street is the Davis Pharmacy, owned by Dr Wm. A. Davis who has had a store on that corner for twenty-five years. The second store room is occupied by George W. Taylor, jeweler. Mr. Taylor has been located across the street, in the Child's Building for the past seven years. He maintains the old store also and will have a first class regalia establishment there. Next to Mr. Taylor's store is the modern electrical supply house of the Fearing Brothers. They were the first to move into the store rooms, having moved from the Republic Theatre building further west on U Street. The fourth room cast in the building, is occupied by The Standard Life Insurance Company, as its District' office, with J. Percy Bond in charge. Second Floor Occupants The second floor of this building is taken up with offices. Beginning at the right as you go up the steps, from the 11th Street entrance, is the real estate office of Joseph H. Martin. Mr. Martin was formerly with the firm of Martin and Thorne and moved from the Southern Aid Building to his present location. Next is the office of the Solar Electric Engineering Company. In number three is the dental office of Dr. W. F. Watkins. Four and five are occupied by Dr. M. T. Walker, physician. Number six houses the Oriental Needle Art School, with Mme L. Williams in charge, the next three rooms are taken by the offices of The North-Carolina Mutual and the Bankers Fire Insurance Company of Durham, N. C., with Attorney Zeph P. Moore in charge. Mr. Moore moved his offices from the Pythian Building, where they were for several years. Number ten is the office of Attorney J. Franklin Wilson and The Potomac Investment Company. Third Floor Occupants In number one and two on the third floor are the offices of The Lincoln Mortgage and Investment Company with Jesse H. Foster in charge. This firm has put over some commendable real estate deals and has a home building proposition under way that promises to bring needed relief to congested Washington families. Number three and four are occupied by the Daniel M. Garry and Company, real estate brokers. The remaining five offices are used by The National Mutual Association. This building with fourteen occupants lends its share to the progress that is being made along U Street by the business and professional men and women of the race. The building is a credit to those who own it and to the Race also. The Best Sport Page in the East. PRICE 5 CENTS Youngreatly Hurt the PersonnelAt Tuskegee The Press of the Country is Unanimous in Condemning His Action A veritable storm of protest broke loose last week over the alleged actions of Major Robert Russa Moton of Tuskegee with reference to the personnel of the new two million dollar Veteran Hospital, established there by the Government. A report supposed to have come from the James E. Walker Post of the American Legion of this city, stated that Major Moton when called over the long distance telephone from Washington, had agreed to a white personnel and further agreed that it would be o.k. with him if some of the minor positions were given to colored. The Tribune has tried in vain to get a complete verification of the above is presumed that at least it is partly true. Furthur, to bear out this statement, is an editorial appearing in another part of this issue from "The Enquirer-Sun," a white daily of Columbus, Ga., which states with an air of authority that Major Moton was for a white personnel. These later developments in view of the stand previously reported taken by Major Moton, which was that he was immovable unto death for a complete colored personnel at this hospital has placed the former Hampton cadet commander in a very embarrassing position. Major Moton's exact position in the matter has not been learned. Since the controversy became warm, the Major has remained close to Tuskegee; his house is guarded day and night and it is reported he even refuses to answer the telephone. It is however, known that the Southern whites have brought great pressure to bear on Mr. Moton to force him to change his position from a colored personnel to a white one. Agents of Major Moton have been active in Washington for the past three or four weeks, but just what they have accomplished remains a mystery. Since the hospital row started, the highly efficient press service of Tuskegee seems to have gone on a strike. Not a word has been released in regard to the matter. This has caused a number of newspapers to believe that there is some truth in the statement that Dr. Moton has sold out his race. Editor Ben Davis in the Atlanta "Independent" last week told of the following incident which occurred in Major Moton's private office a short time ago: "When a party of business men from Atlanta (Ga.) visited him (Moton) to discuss economic conditions generally, the Major told us that he was being threatened by an irresponsible element and that he told the Governor and other representative citizens that before he would recommend or request a white staff at the hospital, he would suffer to be shot and braced himself against the wall in his private office to emphasize how much he was wrapped up in the situation and how determined he was to stand pat and immovable for a black personnel. The Major further stated to us that it was time some prominent Negro died for the rights of the race and he had so advised the whites, who were insisting upon his changing his recommendations; and he was not too good to die for a cause which he believed to be just and right." We admit this to be a strong and (Continued on page 2) --- LOCALS AND SOCIETY PAGE TWO LOCALS Board's Drug Store, the place "where everybody meets everybody else" for honest, efficient service.

AN UNCIVILIZED SYSTEM RESULT OF SOUTHERN POLITICS One of the ways in which many Southern states have sought to handle certain phases of the race problem has been to establish a system under which a man convicted of vagrancy or of some trifling offense against the law and unable to pay the fine assessed against him is put up to the highest bidder and his services sold at a stipulated price per day for such length of time as may be required to pay his fine. As a result of this system it has been often alleged that Negroes in many localities are practically reduced to slavery. They will be arrested as vagrants in the spring, fined $100 or some other impossible sum, and sold to some planter who will take them out onto his plantation and work them all summer to pay out their fine, then turn them loose to shift for themselves, through the winter, to be vagrants again in the spring. But this system, intended in the first place to be applied to Negroes only, has gradually been extended until it includes white men as well. Other employers besides planters have found out that the police and justice courts may become a source of cheap labor supply. So there have grown up throughout the South convict camps where unfortunate men of both colors, convicted of some minor offense and having no friends, are virtually enslaved, compelled to work long hours at the most laborious tasks for an allowance of a pittance a day to be applied on an unreasonable fine. This would be bad enough in itself, even if the men were treated humanely. But in altogether too many cases these convict camps are scenes of the most revolting cruelty Men are confined in fifty barracks, they are fed badly cooked and unwholesome food, they are compelled to work long hours, and are at the mercy of brutal keepers who seem to have taken the Simon Legree type of slave drivers as their model. In such a camp as this in the state of Florida more than a year ago a boy from South Dakota, convicted of stealing a ride on a train, fined and sold for payment of the fine, was flogged to death. The testimony brought out before the grand jury investigating the THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, JUNE 2, 1923 case showed that at this particular camp a "whipping boss" was employed, a man who apparently was engaged and paid for no other task than to maintain discipline at the camp and whose one idea of discipline was to flog the men, indiscriminately and unmercifully. Witnesses testified that the boy who died was whipped with a heavy strap, weighted until it weighed pounds, until from his neck to his heels not an inch of unbroken skin was left on his body. The testimony in this case was so shocking that the legislature of Florida, fortunately being in session, ordered an inquiry into the entire system of convict camps and the sale of men to secure the payment of their fines. It will be to the endless credit of this legislature if it makes this inquiry, searching and conclusive, publishes the evidence it develops, and then promptly repeals the laws under which it has been possible to build up a system that in many of its aspects is more shocking and intolerable than slavery itself.—Iola (Kans.)

MAJOR MOTON'S PRESEIGE GREATLY HURT (Continued from page 1) laudable stand for any one to take, but subsequent events show that either Editor Davis has misquoted Major Moton or else the Major, when brought face to face with either death or change in his position, preferred to change his position. The issue when finally settled will certainly not leave the Major the same. He was hand picked for Tuskegee and likewise hand picked for the leadership of the Negro race. The hospital fight gave him an opportunity to qualify before the world and prove his worthiness, but the first tests from the crucible through which he is now going does not show any signs of real gold. The Pittsburgh "Courier" points out that "after every community in the United States refused to allow a Negro hospital to be located within its borders, the Trustees of Tuskegee, through Maj. Moton gave the Government enough ground to accommodate the hospital." This proves that the hospital was not born right. It was an undesirable to begin with, and was bound to give trouble. The colored soldiers as well as many other organizations protested placing the hospital in the South and had it not been for Tuskegee's actions, it may not have been placed there. As the Birmingham "Reporter" says: "After a Negro soldier breaks down in the service of his country, he certainly does not want to be turned over to white doctors of Alabama and Georgia, as experimental material of Southern Science, however they may be needed." The real motive of the southern white man in trying to get control of the hospital, is tersely stated in the Atlanta "Independent" as follows: "The white man has not given a single reason why he should be put in charge of the hospital at Tuskegee, and our group can see but one reason why he wants it and that is to satisfy his lust for power and greed for money. It is not that he loves the Negro so well that he wants him to have the very best services that man is capable of rendering. He wants to boss; he wants to control; he wants to keep the Negro down and shut him out from every opportunity that will enable him to measure up as a man. It is money and power the white man wants and not service to black men." The hospital opens Friday, June 1st, according to Dr. Rogers of the Veterans Bureau here; there will be a few if any patients there at the opening. The Week's (The Chic The Waek's Best Editorial (The Chicago Whip) BOOKER T'S BOOMERANG Interesting things are happening dive buildings, colossal structures and mute testimony to the money raising southern people are threatening to be beautiful grounds and assassinate Relate Booker T. It was Booker T., who Interesting things are happening down at Tuskegee Institute, where massive buildings, colossal structures and green stretches of smooth campus pay mute testimony to the money raising genius of Booker T. Washington. The southern people are threatening to blow up these buildings, demolish those beautiful grounds and assassinate Robert Russia Moton, the successor of the late Booker T. It was Booker T., who skillfully hoodwinked his own people, caught the ear of the white south and put his hand into the pocket of the benevolent north—thus Tuskegee and its lofty walls. It was Booker T. who startled the world with his programme for black people. He promulgated and advocated pure industrial education of the masses of his race, his words had magical effect upon his hearers when he said, "We propose to prepare the negroes to serve the white man better, we propose to produce better cooks, butlers and servants." He made it extremely difficult for the educators of the black men's minds to secure donations to carry on their work. He stamped and stigmatized his people with the badge of unfitness for the higher things in life, he organized the National Negro Business League and used it as a pawn upon the political chess board and in the words of Judge Abernathy, a white man of the south, he succeeded in doing his race more harm than the white plague of consumption; but Tuskegee is now in jeopardy and according to our opinion it will be eventually destroyed by the white south to which he pledged his people. The wolf he petted has tasted blood compensation, it is inexorable. The pendulum which swings out must swing back again and the boomerang that Booker T. hurled from the ramparts of Tuskegee is now flying back bent on striking into the vital heart of his brain child with murderous destruction in its wake. A hospital has been established at Tuskegee by the Government of the United States, a hospital for the black veterans of the recent Armageddon. Moton, Booker T.'s pawing, fawning successor, proposed that white men come to black Tuskegee and conduct this hospital but when these white men came and started to call Moton and his fellows by their first names, such as Bob, Charlie, Warren, Mary and Sallie a flush of indignation rose upon the faces of black Americans accompanied by a storm of protest. "It is a shame, it is unfair," they cried, and the white south answers that you are but servants and technical slaves. Booker T. said so and you can't get away with anything like that down here, you never wanted social courtesy before and by the eternal gods you shall not hva it now. Did not Booker T., himself, say that the races be separate as the fingers, of the hand? And did he not say that every black man must know his place? What do you mean by rising up now claiming respect and recognition and the right of self determination? You can't do it. Booker T.'s bones lay moulding in the grave but his spirit like Banquo's ghost will not down. It is an evil spirit. Sometimes the evil that men do lives after them. Booker T. has spoken and he has written and "none of our piety nor our wit can lure him back to cancel half a line nor all our tears wipe out a word of it." The boomerang must return to the force that started it. Booker T.'s boomerang is now an impending danger. Watch it.

ONE DAY'S NEWS FROM THE COLOR LINE Three Negroes got in the papers the other day, one by being hanged from a bridge by a mob in Columbia, Missouri. The town had expected the lynching for a week, and the only convincing attempt to stop it was made by the white girl's father. Another Negro in the news was a young woman against whose talent the color hoodoo was raised. Otherwise she could have gone to France to study sculpture under French Government patronage. It wasn't the French who barred her. The third was a young poet with ideas about the nature of his people's religious feeling. At a "Meeting of Youth" in New York, representatives of several races were called on to tell how life and the world and the future looked from their angles. He contributed as much to the meeting as anyone, and nobody seems to have taken harm from hearing him. The third incident suggests that if we'd all calm down and set to work, giving the best Negro brains a chance to help a reasonably good job could be done of mending what is now a national bad matter.

PROGRAM: Corporation ed People of America ```markdown ``` Music Forum By Wellington A. Adams Students Recital at Washington Conservatory of Music On Wednesday night, May 16th, the spacious assembly rooms of the Washington Conservatory of Music were filled with many standing to hear May Students Recital. Students tried in a very creditable manner to outdo one another in the program which consisted of the following: America, Everybody; prayer, Mr W. R. Williams; piano solo, Miss Listine Newkirk; piano solo, "My First Dance," Master Sidney Davis Williams; vocal solo, "Morning Wind," Miss Catherine Clayton; piano solo, "Murmuring Zephyrs," Miss Mamie Henry; recitation, "Angels of. Buena Vista," Miss Willie Hundley; piano solo, "Noontide," Miss Gladys Adams; Harmonization, "One Sweetly Solenn Thought," Miss Mamie Henry; Harmonization, "Nearer My God to Thee," Miss Eva Hunt; piano solo, "Moonlight on the Lagoon," Miss Thomasinia Springgs; vocal solo, "Serenade," Mrs. Beatrice Freeman; piano solo, "Valse Lucile," Miss Louise Butler; Remarks, "Our Aim," Secretary of the School; violin solo, "Cavatina," Mr. Chandler Chinn; piano solo, "To a Water Lily," Miss Blanche Worrell; declamation, "Face Upon the Floor," Mr. Charles A. Roman; piano solo, "Waltz," Mrs. Nettie O'Brien; Star Spangled Banner, Everybody. Miss Eliza Belle Wheeler in Recital at the Washington Conservatory of Music, Tuesday night May 22nd made a wonderful impression on a very large and appreciative audience of friends and others who were interested. Miss Wheeler gave a very excellent variety of numbers including dramatic, pathetic and humorous selections which added materially to her reputation as a reader and reflected much credit on her teacher and the School of Expression from which she is a graduate. Able assistance was given by teachers and advanced pupils of the Conservatory of Music so that the entire program gave satisfaction to those who were to be present. It proved to be a brilliant success for the high reputation of the school. Miss Johnson's Pupils Recital A Pupils Special Recital was given by Miss Lillian Theresa Burke, coloratura soprano; Mrs. Minnie Richardson Powell, soprano; and Miss Dorothy Elizabeth Snowden, piano; the pupils of Miss Eva Virginia Johnson, teacher, at John Wesley A. M. E. Zion church last Tuesday evening May 29th, 1923. While the writer was personally requested to be present he regrets his inability to attend until a late hour; thereby prohibiting a more thorough review of the program although it would not have been the writer's object, if present earlier, to offer a critical analysis on a fellow-teachers' presentation of pupils but merely to render proper courtesy through our column as in similar cases. The programme was as follows: Butterfly, (La Farfalla) (Gelli); Ave Maria (Bach-Gouhod), Miss Burke. Tell me (Petrie); Ave Maria (Schubert), Mrs. Powell. Valse Chromatique (Godard), Miss Snowden. Star of My Soul (Bischoff); Lo! Hear the Gentle Lark (Bishop); A Dream (Barlett)), Miss Burke. Call of the Lark (Speaks); Hear Ye, (Aria from Oratorio, Elijah) (Mendelssohn); Eleanore (S. Coleridge Taylor), Mrs. Powell. Nocturne in G Sharp Minor (Chopin), Miss Snowden. On Awake Beloved (S. Coleridge Taylor); The Kiss (Ill Bacio) (Arditi), Miss Burke. Wild Bird (Lieurance) (An Indian Melody); Magnetic Waltz Song (Arditi), Mrs. Powell; Hungarian Dance (Moszkowski), Four Hands, Sister Birds (Les Fauvettes) (Bordese), Miss Burke, Mrs. Powell. Trio Come Where My Love Lies Dreaming (Foster-Dressler), Soprano, Mezzo Soprano, Contralto. A splendid audience was present and we believed, enjoyed a very pleasing program as rendered by these pupils of Miss Johnson, who is a faithful and conscientious teacher. Our Music Teachers Our music teachers and schools have been very busy, it seems, during this school term. Among the number we mention Miss Estelle Pinckney, Prof. R. J. Daniels Music School, Howard Conservatory of Music, Washington Conservatory of Music and School of Expression, Miss Eva Virginia Johnson, Prof. R. Carlton Dorsey, Prof. Joseph Douglass, Miss Amy Dorsey, Prof. Henry L. Grant, Miss Marie James, Miss Olive Jones, Mrs. Gregoria Fraser Goins, and others. What a splendid array of musicians teaching young people how to play and sing intelligently. It would be a progressive step, indeed, If these musicians would organize and establish a fixed standard for teaching pupils music that all may receive credit for schools. Methods of the various teachers differ greatly, but all should point to one successful conclusion for the pupil. Is such a thing possible? Are we too jealous or indifferent to one another's success to venture launching Howard University A. Leon Richardson R. O. T. C. Unit Reviewed The Reserve Officers Training Corps of the University numbering 311 was reviewed on the parade grounds of the unit, Friday afternoon by Dr. Durkee, Dr. Enimett J. Scott, Dean Woodard, Registrar Wilkinson and other members of the faculty who stood in the reviewing stand with Commandant Chauneecy Hudson, Capt. Blanchard and Colonel Howard. The review was led by the R. O. T. C. military band under the direction of Sergeant Dorsey T. Rhodes. Four companies passed in review: Companies A, B, C, and D, comprising the "A" Battalion of the Howard Unit. The cadet officers are as follows: Commandant Chauncey Hudson; Adjutant Webster Sewell; in command of companies of A, Capt. Chesson; B, Capt. M. M. Harris; C, Capt. Taylor; D, Captain Horace Scott. Company A, which is the senior unit, participated in the rites of Colonel Chas. Young, who was interred in Arlington Cemetery on Friday, June 1st The most of the men in this company are to receive commissions from the War Department on June 8. Student Council Gives Farewell Reception Under the auspices of the Student Council of the University, a farewell reception was given in the new dining hall on Friday evening at 8:30 o'clock. A large proportion of the student body attended to take their last waltz for the year on the campus. Splendid music was rendered, and thus says farewell in the role of activities of the Nichols Administration. Medical and Law Departments Closing Out Examinations have been conducted throughout the past week in the Medical and Law Departments and concluded with the exception of the Freshman Pharmaceutical Class which has examinations still to take in the College Department June 5th, 6th and 7th. The examinations in the Medical Departments ended Friday. The Senior Law Class finishes with a one-hundred per cent class. The REV. KILLINGSWORTH DELIVERS ADDRESS AT MANASSAS The Rev. F. K. Killingsworth, D.D., pastor of the Lomax A. M. E. Zion Church, delivered the Alumni Address during the Commencement exercise of the Industrial Institute, Manassas, Va., May 27-30. Dr. Killingsworth formerly served this institution for a number of years in the capacity of vice-president and director of the Academic Department. The address was timely, masterly and well received. SERVICE; PATHETIC APPEAI TOUCHES IUDGE'S HEART. Moved only by that strong love of his fellowmen and a belief in the soundness of the American heart-bearing in the breast of justice, Jack Hill, so touched the heart of Judge Hardison of the Police Court of Washington, that the judge-opened the doors of the jail and turned over to Jack Hill the man for whom he had been pleading. William Butts, a chief employed on the dining car of the Atlantic Coast Line, was arrested late one night while on his way from work and carried before the Police Court on a serious charge lodged against him by a policeman and a detective in civilian clothes. Butts had no witnesses in his defense. Attorney Armond W. Scott, who had been employed by Jack Hill, the only friend Butts had in Washington, used every practice of his skill, but was unable to prevent the court from sentencing Butts to 180 days in jail. Even after the trial attorney Scott was unable to alter the judges' decision, when he appealed to him in his chambers for clemency. Butts was sent to jail. Undaunted by the conditions which seemed hopeless for Butts, and by the efforts of the attorney, Jack Hill approached Judge Hardison and poured fourth a most sincere appeal, based upon the condition of Butts' family in Richmond, his recent loss of his parents, his long record for faithful service and his helpless ignorance of the very words describing the crime with which he was charged. Those who know Jack Hill's sincerity in friendship and distress, know how he poured forth in tremendous tones the fullness of his heart. Judge Hardison was touched, convinced and acted. Later in the day he called the warden, ordered Butts' release to the custody of Jack Hill, who was to intercede to have him reinstated in his job and to his family. Jack Hill's conduct in relation to Judge Hardison reminds us of the lines which say: "Be noble and the nobility in other men will rise to meet you." This friendship by Jack Hill in keeping with Christian teachings and principles is one of those rare incidents which carry the perfume of human kindness into the hurry and trouble of life. a Music Teacher's Forum or Club! Let pupils go to the teacher in whom they have the greatest confidence, but by all means teachers should at least have confidence in one another. What think ye? THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE Senior Medical Class was exempted from examinations with the exception of two members who passed the test. The Senior Dental Class is composed of 89 members: forty-four passed; thirty-five conditioned and ten failed. The failures were due mostly to specimen work in the infirmary; others failed because of inefficiency to absorb the training. In order to procure an early recommendation for graduation some of the men will remain all the summer to further perfect their work and satisfy their instructors. The Senior Pharmaceutical Class will graduate one-hundred per cent. Many of the students will remain for commencement; others for employment during the Shriners' convention; still some will and departed for home. Sophomore Class Elects Tuesday eveing may 29th at 7:30 o'clock in Library Hall, the sophomore class met and elected the following officers for the year 1923-24: Mr. James F. Thomas, president; Mr. Chas. F. Wood, vice-president; Miss Susie Brown, secretary; Mr. Russell White, Mr. Peter Helm, chaplain and Mr. L. Chaney, sergeant-at-arms. On Monday evening the junior class elected Mr. C. E. Rucker as next president. Department of Physical Education Awards Letters On Tuesday noon the Department of Physical Education under the direction of Coach L. L. Watson awarded letters (the Howard "H") to certain members of the Baseball, Track, Tennis and the Rifle Teams. The letter men from Track are: Nichols, Wyndon, Bridges, Robinson, Kraft, Bright, Anderson, H. A. Green, R. L. Green, J. L. Young, Doakes and Warring. Among those on the Rifle Team are Lieut: Bowens and Cadet Captain Chesson of the Senior Unit R. O. T. C. On Tennis: Messrs Jones, Walker and Goff. In Baseball: Messrs, Langrum, Clarke, Melton, Johnson, Higgins, Walker, Doneghy, Baylor, Robinson, Dodson and Downing. This concludes Coach Watson's first episode and clears the way for Spring Football Practice which begins early in September. MIGRATION NORTH CONTINUING AT EAPID RATE (Continued from page 1) white and Negro than there is between native whites and immigrant whites. The Negro, only because he is more easily designated, becomes a target for jealousy and suspicion. Find Them Efficient "The housing problem, however, is more real and most Northern cities have made no provision whatever for a Negro population, which, true to the instincts of any race, likes to congregate itself in districts by itself. Even in this respect, however, the Negro meets with less opposition from persons of his own labor status than from whites of the somewhat higher labor grades. (Labor aristocracy, petty bourgeoisie, etc.) "When it comes to the efficiency of the Negro workman, opinions differ. A large employer writes as follows of the Negro workmen: 'We have employed Negroes in our shops for a great many years. In looking back over their service record we find continuous service records of five years, ten years, fifteen years, twenty years, twenty-five years and even thirty years. These Negroes have faithfully, loyally and honestly performed the service that was required of them. I have found that with proper supervision the colored man could not only do skilled work, but would also maintain a standard of quality and production as established in the shop." "Another employer writes: 'We began employing Negroes in considerable numbers as recently as 1916. We have found them dependable and punctual. They lose no more time because of sickness—in fact, not as much—as the average white worker. We are convinced that he has the making of a man just the same as the average white man has, if he is properly treated.' "On the other hand," says the report, "some employers have had an unsatisfactory experience. A large Eastern iron and steel establishment finds the Negro workers unsteady and unreliable, especially those without families."

Mother and I are ashamed of the way Daisy has behaved—expecting to marry you in the winter and now running away with that traveling salesman from Boston—yes, the minister at Tulose married them that afternoon, and now as long they're married and he is her husband, why we've got to make the best of it. But we'd a hull sight rather Daisy had married you—what can I say to comfort you, Ben?" "Don't worry about me, Mr. Brewer," he said, extending a big brown hand. "It's a hard blow—if Daisy had only told me she didn't love me I would have freed her at once, but don't you and Mrs. Brewer fret about it—I will come out all right in the end." "You're a son to be proud of, Ben," said the older man hoarsely as he went away. Ben paused with his hand on the painter of the lighthouse motorbate. The smile had faded and there was only the grimness left on his face. The boat was laden with supplies for the lighthouse, standing clean and white at the end of the long shoal two miles from the mainland. Ben was assistant keeper there, and he and Daisy had planned an idyllic life in their seabound home—but it was not to be. Therefore, the lighthouse looked colder and lonelier than ever as his boat dashed across the bay. He might have been filled every day of the week for all the emotion he showed when he mounted the stairs to the cozy living room and told his uncle and aunt the news. Days, weeks and months went by and Ben Raymond found that time was a little solace. "I expect some day I'll be darned glad it happened," he told himself savagely, as he polished the brasses and cleaned the big lenses. It was a wild autumn, with raging seas and furious winds that shook the building to its foundation. Folks ashore arose in the night and looked off toward Sands Light to see if some giant sea had not swept it away, but nothing happened until Christmas week, when a blinding snowstorm held the country in thrall and the friendly beams of Sands Light could scarcely be seen. "What's that?" bellowed the keeper above the noise of the horn. "Sea gulls—poor critters," muttered Ben. "Sounds like a cry—" The two men rushed to a window and looked out at first nothing could be seen but the smothering cloud of snowflakes. There was no sign of an unfortunate vessel bearing toward the shoal or the signal fires of the life saving station—yes, there were the fires miles below at Kiticut Beach—the life savers were out tonight. Off Kiticut Beach were the black rocks where another light was placed. But still came that insistent cry that seemed timed to sound whenever the fochorn paused. savers below at Beach were another light came that in- tended to sound mused. low — maybe k off Kitcut." led on his oil- warned his go.

"You'll be drowned!" warned his aunt. "But you've got to go, Benny." aunt. "But you've got to go, Ben." For the first time since his broken engagement Ben laughed outright. He kissed his aunt and made for the lower floor. Half an hour afterward he brought up one by one four people, three women and one man, survivors from the wreck of the ship at Kitticut, who had been put into a small boat and had drifted to the friendly shelter of Sand Shoal. They were all warmly dressed and after the keeper and his family had worked over them for hours and put them to bed they slept all through the next day and in more or less degrees of stiffness, came down to supper. Two of the women were stewardesses on board the wrecked steamer, while the third was a passenger, a girl of twenty, with eyes like brown pansies wet with dew and the most appealing smile Ben had ever seen. She was evidently in moderate circumstances, and it developed that she was on her way from Boston to another city to find work. The only man from the wrecked boat was a cook who could speak little English, but gave a lusty hand in helping Ben reach the life saving station. Be Your Own Landlord! Buy a House on easy terms W. H. TUCKER The two women and the cook went away the following day, but the girl, who had lost all her belongings in the wreck, stayed on at Aunt Hannah's suggestion. "I need a light hand to help me with the work," said the astute old lady. So Marjorie Lee stayed on and helped a good deal, and they all grew so fond of her that they would not let her go. She was an orphan, and she had grown to love the sturdy keeper and his sweet wife, and as for Ben, he was a hero in her shy eyes. "You are my gift from the sea, Marjorie," he told her one night when they watched the stars together from a window on the narrow staircase. This was in June and the stars were soft and the breeze was very tender with these lovers. "No, dear, I give myself to you, but the sea did help us a lot, didn't it?" and she did blow a kiss out to the calm waters in memory of that snowy night six months before. That is the way Ben won a bride and brought her to his isolated home, and their happiness threatens to outshine Sand Shoal light itself. --- PHYLLIS WHEATLEY Y. W. C. A. NEWS. The Girl Reserves of the Phyllis Wheatley met in Squith Philadelphia last Friday night with the High School Girl Reserves Conference at which there were representatives from ten cities. Our girls took a delegation of twenty-four Girl Reserves and five advisors. Inspirational talks were given by Mrs. Cordella Wynn, Miss Crystal Byrd, Miss Kidder of the National Board, and Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson. The girls themselves discussed and brought out many ideas which will be very helpful. Philadelphia们 were much impressed by the conference. On Sunday morning more than 200 Girl Reserves, all dressed in pure white middy blouses and blue ties wended their way to the Presbyterian Church, where they sang very sweetly several of their Y. W. C. A. choruses. The advisors and the girls all are grateful to the Philadelphia们 for their exceeding kindness and the hearty welcome given all visitors. Miss Hallel Q. Brown, president of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, gave a most interesting talk to a large group of the members of the City Federation in the Rose Room Monday night last. Miss Brown has recently returned from a long visit in the South land, and is making a plea to all members of the N. A. C. W.'s Clubs to raise $50,000 for "educational purposes" by the Biennial meeting of the Association in Chicago next year, 1924. Mrs. Martha A. McAdoo, our general secretary, is now on a two weeks' vacation after a strenuous spring of our financial campaign. Dr. Sara W. Brown of the National Y. W. C.

Double Plays Feature Harrisburg, Pa., May 30—Manager Ben Taylor and his fast traveling Potomacs opened their four-game series with the Harrisburg Giants here today by dividing a double bill. Carr, who was Manager Taylor's choice for the morning fracas, was wild, walking five men and hitting two. He yielded eight hits, but Harrisburg was able to count nine runs, while the Potomacs got eight hits off Thompson, but were unable to get but one run. Thompson pitched airtight ball when hits meant runs. Clark carried off the batting honors for the Potomacs, getting three hits out of four times up. Washington, the young left fielder secured from Albany, Ga., broke his ankle in the ninth inning of the morning game while sliding into third base. He will probably be out of the game for the rest of the season. Washington was showing great prominence in the outfield, being a sure fielder, his work at the bat was rapidly improving. Before getting hurt he had bagged two hits out of four times up, one being a two bagger. Washington was substituting for Brown, who hurt his knee in the second game of the season. Ross was Manager Taylor's selection for the afternoon game and the veteran was in rare form and would have yielded less runs but for the four errors of his team mates. While he gave up twelve hits, he kept them well scattered. ment for Harrisburg held the Potomacs blank for four innings, but beginning with the fifth, they began to hammer him and drove him from the box before the game ended. The Potomacs had their big inning in the seventh when they scored five runs. The Giants staged an eighth and ninth inning rally making one run in the eighth and two in the ninth but were able to tie the score. The features of the game were two double plays engineered by the Potomacs. Clark, Ridgeley and Taylor staged the first one while Lewis, who was playing left field in Washington's place, and Ridgeley put over the second. This was the third double of the day as there was one in the morning, Ridgeley to Clark to Taylor. SPORT By H SPORT CHATTER Baseball Flourishing Old King Baseball is certainly ity.

With the return of the Potomac guess more attendance records a Old King Baseball is certainly having a grand year in this vicinity. And in saying this we make no reference to any activity of the opposite race. Less than two weeks ago Ben Taylor and his Potomacs made history by setting up a new attendance record for Race baseball here. And yet while the Potomacs were showing before throngs the District Twilight League, another new feature of the national pastime locally, was drawing hundreds in three sections of the city. The support the Potomacs received exceeded by far every expectation. Just as was predicted in these columns four months ago local fandom rallied to the cause of the Potomacs once they were assured that high brand of the sport was being offered. With the return of the Potomacs on July 2nd unless we miss our guess more attendance records are due for a tumble.

Henderson, Douglas and Washington to handle the games. No decision has been reached however, on officials for the Howard-Lincoln affair. As a passing comment we think this early approval of officials highly commendable as it allows those officials not named ample time to be booked by other colleges. It is hoped that an agreement can be reached very soon on the officials for the "classic." Let there no such condition as existed last Thanksgiving when the last minute request and subsequent refusal of two arbitrators nearly resulted in a very embarrassing situation. TRACK MEETS GO BIG The Fourth Annual Howard and meets held on May 12th and M other page in track history of Co overwhelmingly successful and year with increased interest. The performance of the man stars was remarkable. The time ords made at these meets will sh World's records. The Fourth Annual Howard and Second Annual Hampton track meets held on May 12th and May 19th, respectively, added another page in track history of Colored athletics. The meets were overwhelmingly successful and can be looked forward to each year with increased interest. The performance of the many high school and college track stars was remarkable. The time is not far distanced when records made at these meets will shatter marks now labelled as World's records. PAGE FOUR Besides pitching a good game Ross got a two bagger and scored one of the nine runs. Lewis, who went to left field in the second game, continued his good hitting by getting two hits. Ridgeley accepted five chances and made one error, while Clark at short made three errors. The two teams are idle Thursday but will resume their battle Friday, playing the fourth game Saturday. Immediately after Saturday's game the Potomacs will board the chu-choo for Cleveland where they will play a four-day series with the Tate Stars of that city, beginning Sunday with a double-header.

It has been disclosed that Wills has refused all offers for matches with anyone other than Dempsey. It is claimed $10,000 was offered him to meet George Godfrey and that he turned down $25,000 to fight Bill Tate. He has made it understood that he will not fight in this country again if refused the chance to meet the Champion. For more than three years now Wills has patiently awaited his chance at Dempsey. All comers regardless of color have failed to make any showing against the challenger. On having promised a chance at Dempsey after posting his challenge fee Harry and his manager sat back and awaited developments but none were forthcoming. Wills has rightfully refused all offers until a show down is made. The commission must now outrightly refuse this Black American or grant permission to stage the fight. # Afternoon Game Potomacs r h sh sb o a e Clark, ss .....1 1 0 0 3 0 3 Jefferson,rf .....1 0 0 1 1 0 0 Woods, cf .....1 0 0 0 3 0 0 Taylor, 1b .....1 2 0 0 12 0 0 Lewis, lf .....0 2 0 0 2 1 0 Eggleston, c .....0 1 0 0 1 0 1 Ridgeley, 2b .....2 2 0 0 5 1 0 Goodrich, 3b .....2 0 1 0 0 3 0 Ross, p .....1 1 0 0 0 6 0 Harrisburg r h sh sb o a c Jenkins, cf .....1 2 1 2 2 0 0 Fisher, lf .....3 1 0 1 0 1 0 Jackson, 2b .....1 2 0 0 2 3 0 Petters, 1b .....1 2 0 0 8 0 0 Dixon, rf .....1 1 0 0 4 0 1 Fiall, ss .....0 1 0 0 4 2 0 Wicks, 3b .....0 1 0 1 0 0 1 White, c .....0 0 0 0 7 1 0 Smith, p .....0 0 2 0 0 3 0 Thompson, p .....0 0 0 0 1 0 Eastern League Standing Black Sox Take Double Header The Baltimore Black Sox and the Philadelphia Hildale broke even in a four-game series last week.

It was a mistake made by some individual or small group, a beaureaueratic blunder in Washington, perhaps. No doubt the highest medical au- thorities would declare that the Ne- groes in the profession are capable of furnishing entirely capable medical and surgical skill, although of course the per centage of really able doctors in proportion to the number of Negro inhabitants is relatively small. The Enquirer-Sun, Columbus, Ga., makes the following statements: Over the protest of the governor and other prominent citizens of Ala- ‘bama, and over the earnest and ur- gent request of Dr, R. R. Moton, president of the Tuskegee Institute, If you do, you must use The Ol¢ East Indian Hair treatment and it wil grow your nair long, straight anc beautiful.

This action of the President follows or will follow an unwise effort on the part of some Negroes, principally in the North, to have the president pursue this course The hospital when finished will be one of the finest in the world, and the [inmates will be men who made sac- ‘rifices for their country. Presumably, ‘therefore they are entitled to the best: 't0 the most skillful medica! and sur igieal treatment. | If those Negroes who have de- ‘manded a full Negro supervision an¢ control of the institution believe they have among themselves men who can igive the best service the government ‘can afford, they display great ignor. ance. They ought to know that they could not possibly have learned as much in the few years of opportunity that have been afforded them as the whites have learned in the thousands of years they have been studying and equipping themselves for just such work as will be required of those in control of this institution. And for them to ins’st upon their demand shows that they are, unintentionally though it may be, not willing to give the men of their race the treatment ‘they deserve—the best the govern: ‘ment can afford. There should be neither polities nor radical feeling in ‘the matter, but everything should be subordinated to the good of these un- fortunate men, In order that this may be done those best fitted and equipped to do it should be chosen for the work, and there is no argument when it comes to deter- mining the question as to who is best qualified for it, ‘This does not mean that there should not be Negroes en- gaged in the work; in every place where a Negro can do it, and there are many in which he or she can, it should be filled by a Negro. The Enquirer-Sun has often called and will continue to call attention to unfair or unjust treatment fo the Ne- aro by the whites; and it will also not fail to warn the Negro when he seeks to put an injustice on himself by stu- pid and foolish acts, of which this de- mand for full Negro supervision’ is one. We think that President Harding may safely follow the wishes of Dr. Moton, particularly in an instance where there ean be no sane argument to the contrary. We quote the following from the Onglika Ala.) Daily News of May If we are correctly informed the proposal to locate the iarge govern- ment hospital for treating disabled and sick Negro ex-soldiers in a num- ber of southern communities was turned down, And in not desiring that institution located in a whitecom- munity the people were right. It was very properly located near Tuskegee Institute, the most noted Negro col- lege in the world. Now that this hospital is about ready for occupaney and use there has been long and loud protests made against the professional workers, medical and surgical staff and govern- ing officials being chosen from the Ne- gro race. Appeals, almost demands, have been made that all physicians and surgeons employed there be white practitioners. Without modification of ‘our known views, rather confirm- ing and extending them, regarding proper relations between the two races and a correct separation of ‘them socially and professionally, we are of the opinion that this strictly Negro hospital, built and to be opera- ‘ted for suffering Negroes only, shoul: be managed and manned in all its de partments by Negroes. Many of these ex-soldiers have heretofore beer “farmed out” at sanitariums and hos pitals, some are from already over crowded government hospitals, anc they are all to be brought to the new hospital erected for them at Tuskegee It has been reported that in som cases in “contact” hospitals these sich and disabled ex-soldiers have not ha‘ proper care and treatment, becaus: of the fact that white managers o such places, and white employes, ac tually slighted them because of thei color. ‘That was one of the factors i weiatoe , ‘oilding and equipping a hospital for that color.

MASON AND DIXON'S LINE What is called the Mason and Dixon's Line is generally thought to be a line dividing the slave-holding states from the free states. In fact, it ran over one-third of its length between two slave states, tween Maryland and Delaware. It was surveyed by two Englishmen, Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon, during the years 1764 and 1767, and determines the boundry between Maryland and Pennsylvania, and between Maryland and Delaware. Milestones were set up, and each five miles marked by a larger stone on which were cut the arms of William Penn and Lord Baltimore.

Mr. Ludwig Lewisohn, who is the dramatic critic of the New York Nation, and is a very eminent authority, contributes to that magazine a long review of the play "Salome" by the same group of Negro actors who recently rendered the play here in Washington. It will be noted that while he adversely criticises certain features mildly, on the whole, he gives the performance high praise. What is equally important, he points out—what each of us should take to heart—that the most of our "colored show business," including our various "musical comedies," "revues," and vaudeville "acts," are mere imitations of the white "black-faced" comedian and is "from the Negro's point of view, a caricature of himself." We should bear in mind that however "good" these acts may be as minstrelsy—they are really caricature—they can not add to our self-respect nor the respect of other races for us. One good "Salome" is worth a thousand "Shuffle Alongs"—however well the actors may shuffle. Ability counts. (From the New York Nation of May 23, 1923) THE NEGRO PLAYERS On the evening of May 7 there were several openings in New York. One was the Equity performance of "The Rivals"; one was the appearance of the Negro Players; the others represented theatric hack-work of various kinds. I was the only dramatic critic but one who chose to go to the Frazee Theatre to see the first New York performance of the Ethiopian Art Theatre—I could wish that a more sensible name had been selected—rather than to the Longaer or the Punch and Judy or the Equity Playhouse. It isn't a question of being a Negrophile; I detest the subtle patronage of the word's implication anyhow; it's a question of being interested in art—art as expression, as fresh, as creative, as enlarging vision and experience. Of art in that sense the Negro Players offered the only chance on the evening of May 7; one other and I were the only professional reviewers present. There is, as few people know, a flourishing "colored show business." Four or five musical comedies and revues are touring the country; there are minstrels and vaudeville "acts" without number; there are fifty Negro "acts" in burlesque. Much of this activity, granting talent and energy, is of slight interest; much of it always strikes me as an actual imitation of the white "black-faced" comedian—an imitation, from the Negro's point of view, of a caricature of himself. All these things then have little or no value as art, as an expression of either the Negro individual or the Negro race. It was the performance of Mr. Charles Gilpin in "The Emperor Jones" that first attained such value. Mr. Raymond O'Neil's group of Negro players attains it, I believe, in an even higher degree. Everything here is tentative and new. Other performances of other plays will be given. A final judgment, even an approach to something rigid as a judgment, must wait. I want, for the moment, to register impressions. These may have their slight value for the players and their audiences. I always shut my eyes during some portion of an important production. It is only so that one brings into relief the voices and diction of actors. I do not think that I have ever heard so many fine, resonant, well-modulated voices on the boards of a single theater during a single performance. The voices had range, a wide range of emotional expression.

Will you kindly send in the names of books which you think other Tribunites would like to read? We prefer books dealing with the history of the race—but any book, MY FAVORITE BOOK at certain points they never rang quite true. Wherever in the text of Wilde's "Salome" the vocal expression called for was one of eerie aloofness or cold despair or anything fierce, harsh, terrible—there the voices, beautiful as they were, failed. For in them was always a murmur and a singing quality that was sunny and kindly and simple. The diction was extraordinarily interesting. It was, generally speaking, correct; it was clear. It was quite inimitably itself. You could never have imagined this speech the speech of any other race. It gave the Wilde text a new tone-color, a new flavor. And it was shared by all the players. It left no room for doubt that the Negro speaks an English which is his own, which he has made in his spiritual image, which is unique beyond such external things as accent or pronunciation. This English has a strange softness, a minor note, an echo of wailing. . . What is more definite and certain though less new and significant is the mere acting. Miss Evelyn Preer, for instance, is an accomplished artist. I liked her better in the little realistic folk-play "The Chip Woman's Fortune" than as Salome. But take the two impersonations together and you gain a very high notion of her range and skill. And for all the concrete realism of her acting in the folk-play there was a touch of humble poetry in it too, which saved it—as indeed the whole play was saved—from any tinge of the sordid. Mr. Sidney Kirkpatrick had moments as Herod that were haunting; he had other moments that were strangely inadequate. The latter were the moments of desperate laughter, of mad arrogance, of cold despair. His pleading was exquisite. That is it: the Negro voice is a beseeching voice. But I must hasten to add that in neither piece was there any bad acting, tawdry acting, acting of that mere shoddy artificiality which is so frequent on Broadway. I am anxious to see the other pieces in the company's repertory, not for the sake of those pieces nor for the sake of Mr. O'Neil's directing or his scenes—both are very good indeed, though the former betrays odd little lapses—but for the sake of a strange, beautiful, haunting quality that came from that first performance, that I cannot define or even clearly describe today, but that gives me hints of something immeasurably precious and important—hints of the soul of a folk. an' put away yer toys, an' tell her all yer joys— am mighty tired) boan yo' mek er noise. an' yer tings erway; ernudder day; am mighty tired) dis aint no time ter play. er better herry, too, fer ter pester adder yo' am mighty tired) fo' yer playtime hours am thru. rights am gittin' low— be so monstrus slow, am mighty tired) while I am crooning low. if it is a good book, could be suggested for reading by other Tribunites.

This statue had its "inspiration" in the story of Sojourner painted from life by Elihu Vedder Jane Jackson, painted from ```markdown ``` Jane Jackson, painted from life by Elihu Vedder Truth. It is a curious coincidence for her, as in the case that the original of another representation of a Sibyl—a painting by the eminent American artist, Elihu Vedder—was a Negro woman whom Mr. Vedder knew in New York City, The Cumaean the most noted of the most prominent incir her is the story of the the Roman King Tar IBIELA A IBILLA The Cumaean Sibyl, bronze bust, by Elihu Vedder while he was working there as an artist during the Civil War. The painting referred to is the celebrated "Cumaean Sibyl" which now is at Wellesley College in Massachusetts. It is one of the most notable of Mr. Vedder's works; of his early works at least. Since the work just mentioned is a painting, this is not the occasion to go into details regarding it. However, the same conception was modeled by the artist in the form of a bust with a much closer resemblance to the original woman, physically and otherwise. This was later cast into bronze, retaining the name, "The Cumaean Sibyl." B. C.) of the celebrated Books, containing the so-called. The story briefly is visited Tarquin and offered nine books containing her refused to purchase them. away but returned later and him that she had burned the books and offered to sell her maining six books, but she same amount for the six the previously asked for the again refused to purchase. went away but returned a time, telling the now aston quin that she had burned all of the books but would so maining them; still she The original of this picture and bust was one, Jane Jackson, who sold peanuts on the street to support herself while her only son was fighting in the Union Army. The story and a picture of Jane appear in Mr. Vedder's book, "Digressions of V," published in 1910. He says (page 236): "At the time [War time, probably 1864] I had my studio in the old Gibson building on Broadway: I used to pass frequently near a corner, where an old Negro woman sold peanuts. Her meekly bowed head and a look of patient endurance and resignation touched my heart and we became friends. "She had been a slave down South, and had at that time a son, a fine tall fellow, she said, fighting in the Union Army. I finally persuaded her to sit to me and I made a drawing of her head and also had her photograph taken. Having been elected associate of the National Academy, according to custom I had to send in a painting to add to the permanent collection, so I sent in this study of her head and called it simply by her name—which was Jane Jackson. Time went on and I found myself in a mood. As I always try to embody my moods in some picture, this mood found its resting place in the picture of "The (Continued from last week) THE "CUMAEAN SIBYL," By Elihu Vedder J.J.O.O. Cumaean Sibyl." Thus this fly—or rather this bee from my bonnet—was finally preserved in amber varnish, and thus Jane Jackson became the Cumaean Sibyl." There is nothing in the history or legends of the Cumaean Sibyl to suggest an African origin or residence for her, as in the case of the Libyan Sibyl. The Cumaean was, however, the most noted of the Sibyls, and the most prominent incident concerning her is the story of the sale by her to the Roman King Tarquin (about 500 B. C.) of the celebrated Sibylline Books, containing the so-called oracles. The story briefly is that she visited Tarquin and offered to sell him nine books containing her oracles. He refused to purchase them. She went away but returned later and informed him that she had burned three of the books and offered to sell him the remaining six books, but she asked the same amount for the six that she had previously asked for the nine. He again refused to purchase. The Sibyl went away but returned the third time, telling the new astonished Tarquin that she had burned three more of the books but would sell the remaining three; still she insisted on the same amount that she had originally asked for the nine. This time Tarquin yielded and purchased the three books. These books were deposited in the Roman archives and were consulted by specially trained men on all important occasions. However, we cannot follow their history at this time. Following the quotation above, Mr. Vedder goes on: "The story of the Sibyl is well known, having been translated from Latin into English, but the story of the embodied mood has not been translated. In plain English it meant: If you don't buy my pictures now while they are cheap, you will have to pay dearer for them later on. Thus far the prediction has turned out true several times." But, as has been stated, Mr. Vedder, who is a sculptor as well as a painter, modeled the same subject into a bust which was cast in bronze. It is this bronze figure that most interests us here. Comparing the features of Jane Jackson with the features of this Sibyl in the bronze form, we observe that the Sibyl resembles Jane but there are rather different expressions on the two faces. The lips of the Sibyl are more compressed and the corners of By her mouth drawn down, thus arching her upper lip and giving her an expression of cynicism not free from contemptuousness—in keeping with the mood of the artist. The "look of patient endurance and resignation," which the artist observed in Jane's face, has in the Sibyl given place to an expression of stern austerity mixed with a certain mystery and uncanniness. It would not be difficult to imagine this Sibyl to be capable of penetrating, and even of foreseeing, men's plots and plans, their dreams and schemes; while her own inner realization of humanity's essentially dependent impotence, would be likely to arouse such thoughts as are indicated by her scarce-hidden sneer. (See note 29.) Thus it seems that in this figure, Vedder embodied more of his own mood than of Jane's. Nevertheless, he has, in this bust, given us a Sibyl who looks her part—looks the particular part as well as the particular character which are indicated by the incidents briefly related. It is notable, too, that in transforming Jane into the Sibyl, Vedder has considerably sharpened her nose and thinned her lips; thinned them even more than the cynicism already noted would seem to require. In short, he has "toned" her features so much and given her such long, straight hair, that one would scarcely surmise on looking at her that her original was a Negro woman. Yet it should be remembered that it was not Jane as an individual, nor Jane as a representative of any race, but her story, her character, and her "look"—happily fitting, to a certain degree, his mood—that he embodied in the Sibyl. It is not difficult to see the connection between Mr. Vedder's cynical mood and the Cumaean Sibyl's legend as outlined above. But an interesting question is, what suggested the embodiment of this particular woman and her "look of patient endurance and resignation" in the said Sibyl, when such "looks" were no doubt common enough in New York about that time? Since he has not told us—if he knows—those of us who care to do so may each make a guess for himself. My guess is based on the supposition that Jane sold newspapers as well as peanuts (and perhaps other things), hence it may have been Jane's occupation as a dispenser of modern "oracles" which prompted her selection. (In a letter from Mr. Vedder, dated in Rome and received since the above was written, he says, regarding the combination of imagination and reality which suggested the portrayal: "I simply took Jane Jackson, that type of a soul patiently biding its time, and put into the picture [figure] the idea of the 'Cumaean Sibyl,' thus converting Nature into Art.")

In the early days of America, "Black-birders" was a term applied to the sailing vessels engaged in the slave trade which plied between the coast of Africa and the American colonies. My uncle tells me that on February 24, 1864, when every available man was needed in the Federal army, Congress voted a compensation, not to exceed $300 to every Union master whose slave would enlist in the armies of the North. The act also provided that the volunteer should go free in recognition of the enlistment. FANNIE BLACKBURN (14) Dear Editor: I was very glad to see my name among the "Specials" for May 5th.

SATURDAY, JUNE 2, 1923 TEACHING CHILDREN HATRED There is quite an illuminating art White Children and Their Colored ese leading questions: "How ear aces? Is it innate or is it the prod quite an illuminating article in the June children and Their Colored Schoolmates." It g questions: "How early do we begin to innate or is it the product of nurture? H There is quite an illuminating article in the June "Crisis" on "White Children and Their Colored Schoolmates." It begins with these leading questions: "How early do we begin to hate other races? Is it innate or is it the product of nurture? How much do we hate? Can we analyze prejudice? Post-war social conditions have certainly stimulated race consciousness, race hatred and prejudice of all sorts." David H. Pierce, who wrote the article, is a teacher in an Ohio public school and has two classes, all white, divided into a high grade class of thirty-seven children of the eighth grade, ranging in ages from eleven to seventeen and a low grade group of twenty-six pupils. He asked them two questions: (a) "What is your opinion of white and colored children attending the same school in Ohio? (b) How should we treat the Negro in the United States?" The answers are classified into three groups: (1) "Those favorable to the Negro. (2) Those tolerant or favorable with qualifications and (3) Decidedly prejudiced." The results were as follows: High Grade Class Low Grade Class (1) 8 or 22 per cent (1) 4 or 15 per cent (2) 12 or 32 per cent (2) 8 or 30 per cent (3) 17 or 48 per cent (3) 14 or 55 per cent We are concerned with the answer to the second question at the beginning of this article: "Is it (hatred or prejudice) innate or is it the product of nurture?" The totals of both groups show more than fifty per cent to be "decidedly prejudiced." Are those children decidedly so by nature or is it the result of parental instruction? Parental influence is evident from some of the answers as printed in the article. And that is what should give us concern. It is an evident fact that we cannot hope for very much from the present generation. There was a growing sentiment for race prejudice in the United States previous to the outbreak of the World War. This racial prejudice was crystallized by the Government in its gigantic effort to sell its bonds and has had Governmental nurture ever since. Therefore, it has about reached its climax in the present generation. The task which this table brings before us is the planning of a program of propaganda to reach the white children in their schools and libraries. Race prejudice is fostered by ignorance. Regardless of how much a person may attend school, if he graduates with a heart full of racial prejudice that person is grossly ignorant. The above table presents the greatest problem before the race today. How to combat the instruction of race prejudice among white children. The race organization that will take up that problem and plan a campaign to reach and instruct white children in the principle of the golden rule, as taught by Christ in his Sermon on the Mount, will render the greatest service possible, not only to the race, but to humanity in general. The white man's Bible, which he would force upon the so-called heathen, says: "But he that hateth his brother is in darkness." I John 2:11. The white race needs to be saved from its own benumbing and benighting racial prejudice. Where is there the organization that is phantom chasing that will rearrange its program and go after the great possibilities offered in conducting a propaganda against race hatred? Like Death, who rides upon a thought, and makes his way thru temple, tower and palace, racial prejudice is covering America and spreading to all lands where Americans travel, blighting and blinding humanity to the principle that all men are created free and equal and that every man, woman and child should have equal opportunity.
