Mrs. Mary Church Terrell Injured in Automobile Accident Mother of 5 Killed in S. W. Tragedy White Delegation from Tuskegee Galls on Director Hines First in Local Circulation. Vol. 3, No. 12 Mrs. Ma Mothe White De SOUTHERNERS M MAND FOR WHITE HINES TO DECID A delegation of whites from Tuskegee, composed of Dr. L. W. Johnson, State Senator R. H. Powell and W. W. Campbell, arrived in Washington early Friday morning for a conference with Director Hines. The Tuskegee whites came here to make a final demand to Mr. Hines for a white personnel at the Government's new two million dollar hospital recently completed at Tuskegee. The delegation met Mr. Hines in the Director's office on the 10th floor of the Veterans' Bureau at 2:00 o'clock, and remained in conference with him for some time. When interviewed by a Tribune reporter a short time ago, Director Hines, stated that just as soon as the Tuskegee delegation could come here and present their claim, that he would give out a statement announcing his future policy at this hospital. Now that the delegation has called, something definite is expected from Mr. Hines, very soon. Who holds the key to the present muddled situation at Tuskegee? Who knows just what the real cause of all this trouble is? Many people have advanced various reason as to what they believed was the real cause and have, in many cases, put up good arguments in support of their claims. However a recent article in the New York Independent, by a southern white man who made a trip to Tuskegee and investigated matters at first hand, comes nearer to being the real answer than anything we have ever seen on this subject so far. The article in part is as follows: Tuskegee's Dark Outlook "Just why the Tuskegee folks object to a Negro personnel in the Negro Veterans' hospital does not clearly appear. They say that it will make trouble among the whites. And yet for many years there has existed in the suburbs of Tuskegee a great Negro educational institution manned by Negroes and there has been no trouble: "I was in Tuskegee and picked up some facts there that may have a hearing upon the present controversy. There is an undeniable undercurrent of ill-will against Tuskegee Institute itself in the town of Tuskegee today. Leading white men in Tuskegee, professing only the greatest friendliness for this Negro institution and its faculty, are, nevertheless, in many cases now unmistakably hostile to the school. In trying to discover the source of this hostility I succeeded, I believe, in putting my finger on two things. The alarming exodus of Negroes from that part of the South in recent years has revealed to the planters of Tuskegee and vicinity the progress of the educated Negro. Tuskegee takes Negroes from the plantations, logging woods and turpentine camps, where they worked for fifty cents or a dollar a day, and sends them out trained for more remunerative employment in the ranks of skilled labor and in the professions. The owner of a thousand acres dependent upon cheap, unskilled labor doesn't like this." He will tell you that education spoils the Negro. "Another thing that has made Tuskegee uneasy is the tendency of the Negro to patronize his own kind. For many years the small storekeepers and the big storekeepers in Tuskegee raped a harvest of trade. from the Negro students at Tuskegee Institute The Washington Tribune and if they didn't like Negro education, they swallowed their dislike because they did like the Negro trade. Recently Tuskegee Institute has opened its own stores, the Negro tailors, Negro druggists, Negro grocers and Negro dry goods merchants are taking the lively Negro trade that once went to white stores in Tuskegee. As Tuskegee Institute ceases to be an economic asset to the white business interests of the town of Tuskegee, so it ceases to enlist their appreciation and good will. "And Dr. Robert Russa Moton, the successor of Booker T. Washington is not the diplomat and politician that Washington was, mingling with the people and putting himself out to make the white folks believe that his chief endeavor is at all times to make the Negroes "keep their place." Dr. Moton hasn't the gift of diplomacy or the inclination to play the game the way Dr. Washington did. "The relations of the white and the blacks at Tuskegee are not what they formerly were. They will never be so agreeable again; depend upon the Ku Klux Klan to see to that. In fact I would not be surprised if the Klan does not yet put it into the heads of the leading citizens of Tuskegee to demand the removal of the Negro personnel from Tuskegee Institute itself and turn that monument of Negro progress and endeavor over to a white principal and a white faculty. The only Negro institution the Klan wants in the South is an institution to teach the Negro that his place is in the fields, in the woods and in the swamps. "I think the leaders of both races, North and South, have failed to grasp the true significance of the row over the Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee. It would be well to take notice." That the white people of the country at large are gradually awakening to the inconsistency and unreasonableness of the South in dealing with Negroes and Negro problems, is attested by the many expressions favorable to the Negro's cause, that are spasmodically appearing in various publications. In this instance, the New York World undoubtedly takes the lead. The World today ranks as one of the most fearless and fairest journals published. The Grand Island (Nebraska) Daily Independent, in a recent issue carried a very fine survey of the Tuskegee situation which is herewith reproduced: Inconsistent Demand Made Grand Island (Nebraska) Daily Independent, July 24th. "The struggle for race supremacy has reached an interesting though somewhat crucial stage in the contest as to whether the Tuskegee Negro hospital in Alabama is to be controlled by black or white management. The fiery (white) southerners at Tuskegee are foaming at the mouth, over the action of the U. S. Veterans bureau in announcing that no white surgeons or nurses would be employed at Tuskegee. The bureau seems to be in a quandary as to which course to pursue, now that the announcement has been made. Negro organizations have asked that the colored doctors be protected in their positions at Tuskegee by federal troops. Threats by white citizens of Tuskegee upon the lives of colored doctors, nurses and supervisors are said to be frequent. "The Veterans Bureau is quite sur- (Continued on page 3) (Continued on page 3) Published Weekly ch Terre 5 Kill n from T READ THE TRIBUNE ON YOUR VACATION August is vacation month for Washington.

NEGRO MEMBERS HERE New York City—Dr. Abdul Hamed Suleiman, a native of Arabia, said to have been the high priest at Mecca for several years, has inaugurated a movement for spreading Mohamedan- ism among the American Negroes. Al- WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, AUGUST 4, 1923 WOMAN'S HEAD NEARLY CUT OFF BY HER HUSBAND Lured Wife to Room and Commits Beastly Crime While Friends Wait Bootleg whiskey, a razor and a jealous man is the combination which caused the death of Mrs. Sadie Thomas, in the room of her husband Ralph Thomas, at 221 I street, S.W., last Monday night about ten thirty o'clock. Mrs. Thomas and her husband were separated last December. Since then she had been rooming at 1029 2nd St., southwest. They often met and seemed to be becoming reconciled. They had five children, two of whom lived with the mother or Mrs. Thomas, Mrs. Lotie Lewis, the other children stayed with Mrs. Mann Holmes, 299 H Street, southwest. From the best account obtainable, Ralph Thomas was at 619 Delaware Avenue Monday afternoon, with Harry Lewis, Mrs. Thomas's brother. While there, Mrs. Thomas came up in an auto with a girl friend of hers and a man. They went in the house and danced awhile. About ten o'clock, Ralph said to his wife, "Come and go over to my room with me, I have something there that I want to give you and it will settle our differences for all time." The man who was driving the car in which Mrs. Thomas came there in and his girl friend, Mrs. Thomas, her husband and brother, all left in the car and went over to the I street address where Thomas was stopping. He and Mrs. Thomas got out of the car and went into the house and up to his room. They were up there a few minutes when Mrs. Thomas called out of the window and told her brother that she would be down in a few minutes. Some time elapsed, then the people in the car becoming tired of waiting called for "Sadie." She did not answer but her husband answered that she had undressed and retired. Mrs. Thomas's brother got out of the car and went into the house. He met Thomas coming out, who, it is alleged, said: "Sadie is asleep and I am going after a bottle of soda water." Lewis went into the house and up the steps to the room where his sister was. He found the door locked and upon forcing it open, found his sister wrapped up in the bed clothing with two pillows covering her head. Upon investigation he found his sister's throat had been cut from ear to ear. Miss Mary Johnson, who was ironing in the kitchen below stated that she did not hear any sound and that she did not realize that the murder had been committed over her head. The police were called and soon they were on the trail of Ralph Thomas. He was arrested later and held for the grand jury, as the result of the Coroner's inquest held Wednesday afternoon. Southwest Washington was stirred over this brutal crime. Thomas appeared crazed. He stated that he had helped a friend drink a quart of whiskey Monday afternoon. At number four precinct, where he was kept in jail the remainder of Monday night, a guard was placed just outside his cell for fear he would attempt suicide. ready a Moslem group has been started at Newark, N.

PURCHASE ADDITIONAL LAND FOR DUNBAR The District Commissioners at a recent meeting, authorized the purchase of a 3,239 square foot plot adjacent to Dunbar High School and also two lots at $4,250 each. Additional ground will be purchased it is said. The ground is to be used as additional play space for the school. An appropriation of $100,000 has been made by Congress for the purchase of additional ground and this money will come out of that amount. BIG BUSINESS BUILT BY NEGRO GENIUS IN SOUTH Atlanta, Georgia—Nothing more Colored men are capable of conducting along the most modern lines great business enterprises than the facts which were presented by Heman E. Perry, President of the Standard Life Insurance Company, and the principal factor in the triangular group of busi- ness institutions—Standard Life Insurance Company, Citizens Trust Company, and the Service Company, located in the "Gate City of the South," to his Boards of Directors who met last week at the home office here in Atlanta, in semi-annual session. The report of the officers of the three concerns indicated the same remarkable degree of success declared at the annual meeting in January of this year. Standard Life Votes to Double Capitalization The Directors of the Standard Life Insurance Company, for instance, declared a dividend of $6.00 per share, thereby assuring a dividend payment of twelve (12%) per cent on Standard Life stock for the year, and voted to double the capitalization of the Company, and to enter within the next few months nine additional States Makes Ready for Northern Invasion Standard Life is now preparing for a "northern invasion" as it is planning to offer its policies in many of the northern States. Heretofore, and until the Company was a positively assured success, it has confined its activities to the Southland where the great masses of Colored people reside. President Heman Perry's report was a remarkable statement of the widespread appeal which insurance is now making to Colored prospects. His report indicated that for the six months ending June 30, 1923, the admitted assets of the Company now amount to $2,222,989.60, with old line legal insurance in force amounting to $25,824,134.00. Thirty-Five Million Dollars of Insurance in Force by January First is Predicted The Agency Force of the Standard Life Insurance Company is now so organized that it will probably bring insurance in force up to $35,000,000.00 by January 1, 1924, when the annual meeting of the Board of Directors is to be held. The income of the concern during the past six months amounted to $586,894.18. Every claim of the Company has been promptly paid, the largest of these being in the sum of $6,000.00.

ASKS RE: MOVAL OF TUSKEGEE HOSPITAL HEAD N. A. A. C. P. ASKS RE: MOVAL OF TUSKEGEE HOSPITAL HEAD Director General Hines, of the Veterans' Bureau, has been asked in a telegram sent by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to remove Colonel Robert H. Stanley, at present commanding the Government Hospital for colored war veterans at Tuskegee, Alabama. The demand follows disclosure of charges that Colonel Stanley had permitted the use of the Government Hospital supplies by the Ku Klux Klan, that he had failed to protect colored subordinates from the threats of mob violence, and that a number of colored nurses who it was feared might reveal conditions at the hospital, were summarily discharged without cause. A letter to President Harding calling the Tuskegee Hospital a "national scandal" and asking for a definite stand by the Administration, supplements the telegram. The Best Sport Page in the East. Price 5 Cents Accident agedy or Hines TE ROOM, MRS. TERS OPEN WARD TE HOSPITAL While driving her car on the road to Highland Beach, near Annapolis, Md., accompanied by her maid and bull dog, Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, of 1615 S St., northwest, was struck by a truck of the telephone company near Annapolis, last Saturday. Mrs. Terrell states that while she was driving up a hill she looked up and saw to her horror that a heavy truck was coming down the hill, on her side of the road. She turned her car abruptly to the left, but the truck came diagonally across the road and struck her car from the rear. The car was smashed and Mrs. Terrell and her maid, Miss Eula Edwards, were forced against the front of her car. She suffered a compound fracture of the right knee, cap, and Miss Edwards dog was injured also. The injured occupants of Mrs. Terrell's car were carried to Annapolis, where they were given first aid treatment at the hospital. From there they came on to Washington, on the interurban cars. Arriving at the 11th Street station, a white taxi driver was called and Mrs. Terrell was carried to Garfield Hospital. The fact that Mrs. Terrell is being treated at Garfield Hospital has caused considerable talk. In response to inquiry by a Tribune reporter Mrs. Terrell stated: "I went on home. Arriving there the driver seemed to realize the pain I was suffering and suggested that I should go to a hospital. I told him that I thought that I could make it all right at home. He persisted that he should take me to a hospital and said 'Garfield hospital is near here and I will run you over there.' And here I am." "But" said Mrs. Terrell, "a colored woman cannot get a private room in Garfield Hospital." "Can you not move?" she was asked. "Yes, but I want the same doctor that operated on me to continue to treat me." "How long do you expect to remain here Mrs. Terrell?" "About six weeks," was her reply. She is in ward H. Mrs. Terrell arrived at the hospital on Saturday but was not operated on until Monday. An interesting thing came to light concerning Garfield Hospital since Mrs. Terrell arrived there. Some of her friends called on the phone to know if a Mrs. Mary Church Terrell was there. They were informed that no such person was there but that a "Mary Terrell" was there. This friend went to the hospital and asked in person for "Mrs. Mary Church Terrell." She was informed by the girl at the desk of information that no colored person was ever "Miss," "Mrs." or "Mr." at the Garfield Hospital. She asked for the person in charge and was referred to the supervising nurse across the hall. The same information was given her by this nurse. When a reporter of The Tribune called to see Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, he was referred to the same surprising nurse and she called for ward H on the phone and told the nurse there to "see Mary errell and see if she will see the reporter." So Mrs. Mary Church Terrell is officially enrolled at the Garfield as "Mary Terrell." And yet she remains there, knowing full well that Freedmen's Hospital is operated for colored peo- (Continued on page 5) LOCALS AND SOCIETY PAGE TWO ```markdown ``` Miss Marie Antoinette Jackson of 1419 Fifth Street, northwest entertained Saturday evening in honor of Mrs. Edna Jackson Pratt, her cousin, and Mr. Baylor Henry, both of Philadelphia, who were her week end guests.

Who would have thought that the ‘nigger hating’ southerner, believ- ing so religiously in race segregation upon trains and street ears, should ob- ject to colored supervision of a hospi- tal containing exclusively colored pa- tients? Why not practice what they preach, Veterans’ Bureau officials ask? “The answer to these questions is not so difficult. The average white gentleman from the southland ean not bear to sce the’ colored man, be he ever so able to qualifications, hold a position of responsibility anywhere or urider any conditions, ‘Race Suprem- acy,’ or ‘the supremacy of the white race,’ is thereby inevitably threatened, they consider. On the other hand, does not their action in the Tuskegee case, in protesting’ against the ap- pointment of a colored management, appear inconsistent with their hereto- fore observed policy of segregation of the races? “But this is different, far different! Substantial salaries are paid by the Government to those who are charged with the medical care and treatment of veterans. And the ‘southern gentle- men’ never miss any opportunity to grab postmasterships and any other federal jobs away from their weaker colored brothers whenever possible. ‘The question of race domination then becomes paramount. When they want to crowd the Negro race off the choice Pullman cars, chair cars or street cars then they call loudly for relief from ‘social contact with the “nigger”? A strange procedure, surely. “Tn the meantime, the Veterans’ Bu- reau is sorely tried in an effort to ad- just this embarassing situation. Hence ‘we ead one day that Director Hines hints at plans to overcome the ob- jection to the Negro management by placing white supervisors in control. ‘The next day it appears as though the colored ‘management is to remain, re- gardless of the southern white gentle- men’s preferences in the matter.” That the white south is gradually intimidating the Negro, was forceably brought out by the many protest to the parade around Tuskegee, by the Ku Klux Klan, Since the Klan’s parade in defiance of the Government, a number of pro- tests have been made by white organi- zations, Some of these resolutions drew fire from the little courterie of whites at Tuskegee, headed by R. H. Powell. Powell stated in the Mont- gomery Advertiser a few days ago that the whites at Tuskegee resented any outside interference in this quat- hee : ‘Among the many protests made are the following: General Conference Commission on Social Service (Paper adopted by the Commission ‘on Temperance and Sceial Service of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in session at Lake Junaluska, July 1-7, 1923.) “Inasmuch as there has come to us, through newspaper reports and pri- vate sources of undoubted reliability, information that the interests of that great institution for our colored peo- ple at Tuskegee, Als., are seriously menaced by threats of organized in- terference— “Resolved, That this Commission put on record our appreciation of the incalculable value of that institution for the training of our colored fellow citizens and declare our unalterable conviction that any invasion, or threatened invasion, of its rights, cr interference with che order!:7 pursuits of its Inwful and benevolent labors, would be a calamity to the institution and a lasting disgrace to our Soutb- ern civilization and _people—Bistop James Cannon, Jr., Chairman; Dr. J.

The Tribune came into possession this week of a circular sent out by the Civil Service Commission here in its effort to get Negroes to qualify for positions at the Veterans Hospital at ‘Tuskegee. The circular was sent out before the hospital opened. | Two points in this circular deserve special mention. One is, the state- ment that the “entire staff will be composed of colored men and women” and that “the President of the United States has directed” this. In the next paragraph the circular admits that the ground was donated by the Tuskegee Institute. ‘This statement is important because of the fact that when Director Hines visited Tuskegee recently, the whites claimed that they had donated the ground for this hospital. According to well informed circu- lars, Tuskegee Institute has purchased outright at prevailing prices, all of In fact, the father of W. W.

The nearly 6,000 weekly circulation of The Washington Tribune—essentially a home circulation—concentrated 99 per cent in Washington and its suburbs is, perhaps, the nearest approach to complete weekly newspaper “saturation” at- tained in any of the great single markets of the world.

PRINTING CO. 918-2022 U STREET, NW. SPORT CHATTER IS AN EAST-WEST SERIES IMPOSSIBLE? Why not end this baseball feud between the East and the West and begin preparations for a series for the Negro baseball championship of the World? True, league rights have been trampled and ignored. Players have jumped at the offer of reported fabulous salaries. Contracts in many instances have been considered as but scraps of paper. Owners and managers have been attacked through the press. Yet all have come through apparently unscathed. But for future safety these are sufficient reasons why a truce should be declared and unless there is an early understanding, the future promises greater inconveniences for both factions. The game is too promising for frequent upheavals. Then again, here we have the warring parties: the National League in the West and the Mutual Association in the East, both campaigning in separate sections. Territorial rights fortunately have not been touched. Only an understanding regarding players needs consideration. A series for the championship would be about the biggest affair in recent baseball history. Imagine the throng that would jam the Hilldale, American Giants, Detroit or Black Sox parks to witness such a classic. WHAT SHOULD WILLS DO? Much has been said of the silly Harry Wills and his manager. He both races have time and again in Wills method of silent manoeuvre being taken. Yet few if any have plan for the New Orleans battles. The fact that Wills was wait before Dempsey dethroned Wills is generally cited as sufficient reason. Wills reached the top of the heath that faced him. Most were coloured clear.

An understated never possible an opportunity to enter any lines has had a telling the Black man is obvious, and this understands the situation far be Much has been said of the silent, "watchful waiting" policy of Harry Wills and his manager, Paddy Mullins. Sport writers of both races have time and again penned their condemnation of the Wills method of silent manoeuvering; many different viewpoints being taken. Yet few if any have suggested a sound aggressive plan for the New Orleans battler to follow. The fact that Wills was waiting for a crack at the title even before Dempsey dethroned Willard in 1919 and is still waiting, is generally cited as sufficient reason for a charged procedure. Wills reached the top of the heap by toppling over every fighter that faced him. Most were colored, of course, for the whites steered clear. Lately he has been offered bouts with Bill Tate and George Godfrey. It was proven long ago that Tate was no match for him; while Godfrey has never shown enough to meet a man of Wills's caliber. Gibbons, Willard, McAuliffe, Johnson and Firpo, all touted in early spring as logical opponents, have not dared to challenge Wills. Under such conditions what was he to do, but wait? He had a forfeit up with the New York Boxing Commission as an official challenge to fight the champion. The white press has awaited any opportunity to darken his character and question his ability. He must in every course have his exemplary the abilities of Jack Johnson has had much to do with shaping Wills's program. Back in the early part of 1908 Johnson started his eventful pursuit of Tommy Burns. Jack followed Burns practically around the world, finally collaring and uncrowning him in Australia in December of the same year, giving the Race its first and last heavyweight championship of modern boxing. Johnson, a fearless individual, wonderful fighter, probably the greatest that ever lived, surely the peer of all defensively, made mistakes after he became champion that have hindered the chances of our present day boxers and Wills has been the chief sufferer. Johnson was always in the public's eye. Either an arrest for speeding, an outing with his white wife, a trip abroad, an automobile race, or a boxing bout, kept him forever in the limelight. Wills with but one other world to conquer has been satisfied to wait on his fight with the champion rather than jeopardize his claim—backed by public opinion—as the logical challenger for the sake of a few small purses. Skillfully planned boycotting by promoters and the powers of boxing, aided by sport writers, has resulted in the frequent sidetracking of the Black Challenger. An understanding not to allow our group whenever possible an opportunity to exercise any right to supremacy along any lines has had a telling effect. In other words fear of the Black man is obvious, and this fear is hard to combat. Wills understands the situation far better than anyone else. Trailing the Potomacs Secretary E. J. Butler of the Washington Potomac Baseball Club was in the city this week completing arrangements for the Potomacs next series here beginning August 26, with the Harrisburg Giants. According to Secretary Butler the Nebraska Indians had been booked to appear here for three days beginning Labor Day but the series had to be cancelled because the park management claimed a mistake was made in booking the dates and that the Police-Fireman game, an annual affair had the call. An effort however will be made to bring the Indians here during September. Since the first of the month the club has been playing in the smaller Pennsylvania towns. A trip through the coal district is now in progress. Three weeks will be taken up trailing thru the anthracite section of the Keystone state. The appearance of Morty "Specs" Clark and Wayne Carr in the Baltimore Black Sox line-up last Sunday came as a surprise to local fans. Rumors were afloat that the Potomacs had disbanded. To the contrary, however, Manager Taylor has wired that the club is going stronger now thru the addition of three Texans than ever before. AGE FOUR ment, "watchful waiting" policy of Paddy Mullins.

For the first time this season the Black Sox bears the earmarks of a first class outfit in the box, at bat and in the field. BELMONTS PLAY GEORGETOWN The Belmonts Juniors and Georgetown Preps will meet at 18th and B Streets, S. E. Sunday at one o'clock. The Belmonts are anxious to play all other junior clubs. Address E. Whittaker, 1230 Wylie Street, S.E. Freeland, Pa., July 29—Ben Taylor's Potomacs lived up to all their advance notices, and trounced Larry Cheney's Tigers at Freeland yesterday in a game featured by heavy hitting by the score of 12-8. Cheney formally pitched for the Chicago Cubs. The early part of the game proved interesting, with the lead alternating in practically every inning, but after the sixth, with two men out, the Colored boys got to Reichart, who relieved Dietz in the second, and scored five runs. This seemed to take the pep out of Cheney's boys and they could do nothing with Albritton after that THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY AUGUST 4,1923 Eastern League Results EASTERN LEAGUE RESULTS Results of games during the past week between teams of the Eastern League are given below.

Practically every product of this city now in the Association has developed into a star. Wilson, the Black Sox first sacker is considered the hardest hitter in the league, "Nimp" Winters of Hilldale is regarded as the leading southpaw. "Script" Lee is also pitching winning ball for the league leader. Mahoney is managing the Black Sox and since recovering from the injury is taking his turn on the slab. Smith, another local player is slamming the ball for the Black Sox. Those showing class on clubs not in the league are "Scrappy" Brown whose fielding at shortstop for the Homestead (Pa.) Grays is the sensation of that team's success. Punch in his first season out, is displaying the form that will likely land him in a berth with a league club. He is now with the Madison Stars DANNY EDWARDS WINS Danny Edwards, the Pacific Coast bantamweight, gained the referee's decision over Mickey Delmont at the end of three rounds of fighting at the Polo Grounds Thursday night. The bout served as the semi-final to the Dundee-Criqui affair. Delmont substituted for "Irish" Curtin who it was announced was overweight. Edwards had the best of every round. SLATER KNOCKED OUT SLATER KNOCKED OUT DAVENPORT, Iowa, July 27—Fred ("Duke") Slater, former star football player for the University of Iowa, made his debut as a professional pugilist here last night. It lasted two rounds. He was knocked out by Battling Walker, local white heavyweight. When asked if he would continue boxing as a profession, Slater replied, "Weil, not exactly, but I would like to make it one of my sidelines. I can keep in condition by boxing and when football season rolls round I'll be in the best of shape. During the winter months I'll box regularly if I get a chance." Taylor and Ross were the big noise for the Potomacs. "Big Ben" had two triples, a double and a single. Jefferson had two homers over the left field fence, the last coming in the sixth with two on, and cinched the game.

TATE AND GODFREY MATCHED The match between Bill Tate and George Godfrey scheduled for the Hawthorne race track, Chicago, Ill., on August 10, under the auspices of the American Legion is creating an unusual bit of interest. Tate has time and again defied Harry Wills since their last meeting. However he has never been able to make a creditable showing against Wills. Godfry was Dempsey's chief sparring partner when the champion was preparing for the Gibbons fight. On one occasion Godfrey floored Dempsey and caused much press comment.

They will cross bats with p. Washington team on North Alfred Street in Alexandria on Sunday afternoon HOLMES OUT OF TENNIS TOURNAMENT Tally Holmes, the local star tennis player, former national champion, and who last year ranked second to Edgar Brown will not compete in the national championship at Chicago, August 20-25. The enormous expense of a trip to the windy city and the lengthy period he would have to be away from his family is the reason for Holmes' decision not to make the trip. The former champ has been through a rather severe ordeal in the past few months due to a fall suffered by his infant son. Expert attention has brought the baby out of apparent danger. Holmes is now out of the city playing in the Philadelphia and New York tournaments. The local star did not appear in the Baltimore tournament last week. Those in charge of the Baltimore tournament of last year displayed a bit of unusual sportsmanship and did not give the winner of the tournament (which was Holmes) an individual cup. In addition thereto, the Baltimore matches were not on the sanctioned list sent out by the Association. Aside from Ted Thompson, national junior champ who will motor to Chicago, this city may not have a representative. Financial circumstances of the James E. Walker Tennis Club may mean that the club will be unable to send a player to the championship matches. However, members have expressed themselves as hopeful that a way can be found to finance the trip for two of the club's best players.

I., July—The following statement was given your correspondent here by the Hon. Rothschild Francis, Organizer of Federal Labor Union No. 17261, and editor of "The Emancipator," for circularization in the United State in order that the colored citizens in the States may realize to what a terrible pass United States naval administration has brought their brethren in these lands: "Right here in these Virgin Islands are a group of human beings who are members of the working class. They, too, can tell tales of oppression, or misrepresentation, and of exploitation that will cause your blood to circulate above normal rapidity, but the purpose of this statement is to point out that they are at present without any visible means of support. The men go idle from day to day. Children are undernourished and the economic condition of these islands is something deplorable. "Federal laws have worked havoc upon these Islands. They have closed the harbor of St. Thomas from outside commerce and have chased away the intellectual and commercial element from the Island of St. Croix, and have done more things too numerous to mention here. These islands are under the direct control of the Navy Department. Thinking natives hold in high regard the person- nel of the Navy that are sent down here to govern, but they are irreconcilably opposed to the form of government that is neither Danish nor American. To present date only the New York Call, the Nation—who recently had a representative down here—and the Messenger have paid any special attention to happenings down here. We want you to understand that our people are industrial serfs who work for wages ranging from ten cents to one dollar per day. They live in one-room houses; eat scanty meals and are forced to move about in a manner unbecoming civilized people at this age. "Politically, they are peons without any form of government patterned off the American conception. Illiterates may vote but women may not. The Governor appoints and discharges the judges. The Police Judge and Government Attorney are one and the same person and in short, there are sadder things than these. "We want you to publish this statement to your readers. We want you to give us space in your valuable paper to voice our grievances. We want you to say a word editorially about a group of people who, like cows, have no status, and are forced to accept Federal laws, are governed by the Navy and at present have no means of ekeing out a livelihood. Tell the Congressmen of your State about the conditions and ask them to say something on our behalf in the coming Congress that will give us a Civil form of Government and grant us opportunities to improve our economic condition.

Taylor, has announced the awarding of the Douglass Scholarship for 1923 to Thomas L. Dabney of Virginia Union University, Richmond, Va. Mr. Dabney is a member of the class of 1924,he is an active figure in students' affairs, being president of the college literary society; treasurer of the Federation of Negro Students; state supervisor of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, and he is a student teacher of French. The Douglass Scholarship was established by the fraternity in 1920 as a memorial to Frederick Douglass. An essay contest is the method by which the winner is determined. This year the subject of the essay was "The Effect of the World War Upon Race Relationships Throughout the World." The establishment of the scholarship emphasizes the increasing usefulness of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity in the life of colored students. The fraternity through its twenty-five chapters and one thousand members, seeks to serve mankind in terms of practical usefulness. What Phi Beta Sigma is doing for human uplift is but a part of the constructive work that is being done by the colored fraternities and sororities for advancement of education and in the deepening of the sources of racial culture. TWO GREATEST LOVES DE PICTED IN FILM. Devotion of Mother for Child and Son for Mother Portrayed in Drama. Throughout the centuries the world has been told of the great loves of mankind—the love of a man for a woman; the love of man or woman for a country; the love of man for a dumb animal; the love of man for his art; yet none ever has dared deny that the two greatest loves are the love of a mother for her child and the love of a boy for his mother. The latter love is a basis for the theme of one of the strongest screen dramas ever created. This is the new William Fox production, "The Town That Forgot God," which is one of the several specials of the new season which will be shown at the Lincoln Theater four days next week, starting Sunday. In this production a small boy is the sole companion and love of a young widow. To this boy Washington and Lincoln are the world's greatest heroes—and the world's heroine is his own mother. It is through her he learns to have faith in God and man. Left alone whent still a youngster, he aims to become the man his mother would have him—but the selfish, miserly folk of the village think not of him as a child, but as a nuisance. The climax to this drama is the great flood—a marvelous bit of production without an equal in this line on stage or screen, in which the citizens of this self-centered community are made to realize that love for one's fellow-man is essential to a truly successful life. The small boy, played by Bunny Grauer, through his faith saves the town from utter destruction. Harry Millarde, who directed that now famous classic, "Over the Hill," made this remarkable screen drama. The cast is said to be one of notable ability. Messrs. Harold Browning, Berry, Hahn and Jones of the "Big Four Quartette" of "Shuffle Along" are surely the "chips off the block" and are still the mocking birds of the show. MRS. TERRELL INJURED IN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT (Continued from page 1) ple. There she would have colored nurses and her own physician. At Garfield she has white nurses and cannot be attended by her own physician. Mrs. Terrell's husband, Judge Robert H. Terrell has been in Freedmen's Hospital since May 20th, 1923. Is it possible that Freedmen's Hospital is not sufficiently equipped to take care of Mrs. Mary Church Terrell with a broken knee-cap? Mrs. Terrell bears out the oft-repeated statement that it is our educated and most refined Negroes who always throw their patronage to the other race, instead of patronizing their own people. NATIONAL URBAN LEAGUE New York City—On Tuesday last, a quarterly meeting of the Executive Board of the National Urban League was held in the Russell Sage Foundation Building, New York City at which time the financial report of the League's work for the first half year indicated that the National Organization has expended $25,210.91 in furthering its work. The Executive Secretary, Eugene Kinckle Jones, reported the formation of the St. Paul Urban League which is beginning to handle the social problems of the Negro new-comers in St. Paul. The St. Paul organization, beginning November first, will be supported by the Community Chest of that city. The League is now making social surveys in Waterbury, Connecticut and Buffalo, N. Y. A. L. Foster, former Boys' Work Secretary of the Y .M. C. A. in Columbus, Ohio, has been appointed Executive Secretary of the Canton, Ohio Urban League and Samuel A. Allen, Principal of the Public Schools in Lawnside, N. J. and School Examiner, has been appointed Executive Secretary of the Boston Urban League. The Urban League plans to hold its Annual Conference in Kansas City, Mo., October 16th to 19th at which time problems of Health, Housing, and Industry in connection with the migration of Negroes in the North will be discussed THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE OS HOKUM EY, BRING US A FIFTEEN NT PIECE OF ICE. THE MAD Locals THE SEE Karl Struss, who is responsible for the remarkable photographic shots in Gasnier's production, "The Hero," coming to the Lincoln Theatre next Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, gives a disappointing but valuable hint to the many embryonic inventors who are endeavoring to perfect a plan for conveying colors to the screen. He says that there may never be a ready market for their wares even if they succeed. Struss, expert on color photography and winner of a score of prizes for art photography at recent Paris and New York Salons, is a reliable authority for the statement that there is no demand for colored pictures. As a leader of the cinematographic art, his comment probably will b etaken at its face value.

The Citizens Trust Company, the second of this great triangular group, is a splendid dream made real after two years of uniting service on the part of the Organization Committee: Messrs. H. E.

It has now become the largest purely financial institution BAR T THEA HOWARD SAVINGS IN NEW HOME The Howard Savings Association, Inc., with capital stock of $100,000, has opened offices at 1913 Ninth st. northwest. This corporation is just six months old and during this time has had a rapid growth. During this period the company has to its credit the sale of more than one half dozen houses. In talking to a Tribune reporter, one of the company's officials stated that "the organization entered the business and real estate world for the sole purpose of helping the poor class of our people. We do not propose to make a fortune on the sale of one, two or more houses, but, on the contrary, we do purpose to cut rents and reduce high and usurious prices on sales wherever possible. It is our purpose and aim to try to solve the problem in bringing low rent prices back, and to bring houses which are for sale back to a normal state." The North Brentwood Volunteer Fire Department held its regular meeting July 16, at Firemen's Hall. The Lawn Fete which was given for the benefit of the department was a success. A truck has been purchased and in a short time it is expected that Brentwood will have a well equipped Fire Department. The president, John Sellers, wishes all members to be present at the next regular meeting and make final reports for tickets of lawn fete. Highland Beach Commissioners The annual election at Highland Beach, Md., last Saturday, July 28, for the five commissioners, resulted in the re-election of the same commissioners who have served for the last year: Mr. Haley Douglass, Mr. E. B. Henderson, Dr. Milton A. Francis, Mr. O. T. Taylor, and Mrs. Eula Ross Gray. The Mayor who is elected by the commissioners will be voted for on Saturday, August 4, at Highland Beach.

Service Company, The Giant of the Great Group The Service Company, the third of this great group, but in reality the controlling factor of the three business concerns, began business in 1917 as a corporation, charted under the laws of the State of Georgia, with an authorized capital of $100,000.00, operating at that time in a laundry in Atlanta. In 1918 a second laundry was established in Augusta, Georgia. From an organization of $100,000.00 the Service Company has become a $5,500,000.00 institution. It operates as subsidiary organizations the Service Realty Company, the Service Engineering and Construction Company, the Service Printing Company, the Service Pharmacy, the Service Farm Bureau, the Service Foundation, Inc. and The Citizens Company, and has holdings in Standard Life Insurance Company, The Citizens Trust Company, the Penny Savings Bank of Augusta, Georgia, and the National Fuel Corporation. SERVICE is today the largest corporation owned and controlled by Colored people in the world and plans are now underway to spread the activities of these concerns into strategic centers throughout the United States and foreign countries, making thereby an international corporation that will render a distinct and much-needed service to Colored people. During the course of the meeting of the Boards of Directors, stirring addresses were made by various members, including President Perry, Bishop R. E. Jones, of New Orleans, Louisiana; Bishop R. S. Williams, of Augusta, Georgia; Dr. Emmett J. Scott, of Washington, D. C.; and Mr. E. C. Brown, of the Brown and Stevens Banking Institution, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who was present at the special invitation of President Perry. Mr. Brown spoke most cordially of the splendid successes of the Standard-Citizens-Service group of business enterprises with which he has been connected in several large business operations. Also present as a guest at the meeting was L. A. Walton, of the New York Age, and the New York World, of New York City. ATER By Watson A booklet has just been issued by this triangular group of business institutions, a masterpiece of mechanical printing excellence, well illustrated which has come out of the shops of the Service Printing Company, an allied subsidiary corporation. The booklet is a compilation not only of the operations of the various concerns of this group but is also a compendium of information illustrating the material development of the Colored people of Atlanta. It will be sent upon request to anyone desiring it. WIFE OF FORMER GOVERNOR OF NORTH CAROLINA TO ADDRESS N. A. A. C. P. CONFERENCE Mrs. Thomas W.

The nation was shocked Thursday night at the news of President Harding's death, which reached the Capital about eleven o'clock. While the Negroes of this great country differed with the President in his policy toward them, that difference had been put aside in this, the nation's hour of bereavement. The Tribune joins in the sympathy of the people for Mrs. Harding, in this sudden tragedy and extends to her our greatest sympathy. She has stood the ordeal like a hero of the first class and has won the admiration of the whole country. May the strength she has demonstrated sustain her thru the coming ordeal of the funeral and interment of her devoted husband. To the new President—Calvin Coolidge—the Negroes look with hope. His task will not be an easy one. The uniting of factions and the great responsibility of adjusting the affairs of the world is a huge one. But, with the same spirit of fairness and justice that characterized his service as Governor of Massachusetts inspiring him as President, his administration should be one of the greatest in the history of the country.

Therefore, we are without a leader will more likely come from the intellectuals and the politicians and both up to the requirements. The Garvey movement movement from the South, are present for that assertion. The present members and practically leaderless.aders generally come to light in a crisis. If the leader has stood out in this Tuskegee Homme notice of Turkey's victory? Will we produce afraid of our jobs? Afraid of death? Will the race? "The Unspeakable Turk" routed the whole "civilized (?)" world at the Lauzanne conference and obtained every point he sought. The victory is the greater when we realize that representatives of the great powers of Great Britain, France, Italy and the United States of America were completely outgeneraled by Kemal Pasha. The question naturally arises: How did he do it? The Turk peasant is the same as he has been for years. Mohammedanism remains as his religion. The possessions were practically the same. Then what brought about this great victory? It was simply Kemal Pasha. A man who thought, reflected, weighed and pondered the advantages and disadvantages of his country and realizing an opportunity for real service to his country, used tact, courtesy when needed, adroitness and skill in conducting a campaign which demanded action to the extent of war. He was not afraid nor was he too proud, to fight. He decided within himself that his program was the correct one for his country and he proceeded to carry it out. It required twelve years to obtain his goal but he kept everlastingly at it until victory came at Lausanne a few days ago. The Negroes of America need a man like Kemal Pasha, who has a program and the courage of his convictions in carrying it out. In Turkey in Asia, there are about 10,500,000 people. In Turkey in Europe there are about 1,200,000 people, or about say, 12,000,000 inhabitants. In the United States of America there are 15,000,000 Negroes, on the whole far above the average Turk. Will the 15,000,000 Negroes continue to go unorganized, disgruntled, discriminated against, disfranchised and humiliated by their own government—their own Republican party, if you please? We need an organization that is strictly racial. We cannot hope for the N. A. A. C. P. nor any other organization of ours officered by white people to render real leadership to the race. We must have a representative organization, democratic in every detail. Kemal Pasha did not hesitate to change a condition which interfered with his plans. He did away with the Sultan, who has always been considered the head of the Mohammedan church; he separated church and state—unheard of thing in Turkey; he selected only one wife when the church permits a multiplicity of wives; and he inspired his army with patriotism for Turkey. Our national organization must be headed by men who are willing to keep it separated from the church. One of our weaknesses in organizing is that we put a lot of church folks at the head of the organization and that is the last of it. Garvey had the right idea about organization strictly racial as an inspirer of racial consciousness but he fell down for lack of wisdom in carrying on. DuBois has reached his zenith and is now on the decline. The Crisis and the N. A. A. C. P. have seen their best days and both are declining in subscribers and members. The Equal Rights League with headquarters in Boston is out of touch with the people, and Trotter, like DuBois, has seen his best days. The Race Congress, with Dr. Jernagin as president, has too much "church" in it and will never function on its present program. The Lincoln League is nothing more than a bombastic political conglomeration by which the promoters hope to obtain funds during presidential campaigns. Therefore, we are without a real race organization in this country. Our next leaders will more likely come from the ranks. We have tried the intellectuals and the politicians and both have failed to measure up to the requirements. The Garvey movement and the present migration movement from the South, are the best evidence at present for that assertion. The present migration is from the ranks and practically leaderless. Great leaders generally come to light in a crisis. It is striking that no race leader has stood out in this Tuskegee Hospital crisis. Will we take notice of Turkey's victory? Will we produce a Kemal? Or, are we afraid of our jobs? Afraid of death? Unwilling to really serve the race? A. M. E.

Adams Abbie Mitchell Triumphs in Europe Since Abbie Mitchell, now appearing at the Lafayette Theater, New York City, under the management of Coleman Brothers, returned recently from abroad after about three years of concert touring in Europe, pleasing reports of her marked success abroad have been noted. Her American friends, numbered by the thousands, are happy to record this fact and welcomes her home-coming with "bravos." She was a prime favorite ere leaving these shores and according to the tremendous plaudits of New Yorkers just now at the Lafayette, she still maintains that same popularity as of vore. Dover, D in the ch The st pleasing Tibbs can responde while Pre nce at encore, and int erated showed r At the Wormley the teach school r teaching Foreign press reports of her appearance are glowing indeed. At Budapest, Austria-Hungary, the Frie Press says of her: "She possesses the most remarkable voice of any Negress ever known." The Panorama said: "Miss Mitchell's rendition of 'Go Down Moses,' 'Deep River,' and 'One More River to Cross' were a revelation." They made an insistent offer to have her appear in Grand Opera. The Belgrade Jugo-slaviser Journal stated: "Her operatic interpretation in French and German were marvelous, especially 'The Erkling' by Schubert in German and her French number by a Russian composer and her English renditions of 'Butterfly' and 'Tosca' by Puccini were given such original interpretation and nuance." Delaware State College Hears Local Musicians Through the generosity of the Service Citizens Committee of Delaware, the teachers of the State College Summer School and many visiting friends were the recipients of a rare treat in the form of a joint vocal and instrumental recital by Roy W.

The stage presence as well as the pleasing manner and voice of Mrs. Tibbs captivated the audience which responded with frequent applause, while Prof. Tibbs' masterful performance at the piano won encore after encore. Such a blending of technique and interpretation as was demonstrated by Prof. Tibbs Thursday showed rare musical talent. At the request of Director G. Smith Wormley, Mrs. Tibbs gave a talk to the teachers Friday morning on public school music and demonstrated by teaching a child's song. Prof. Tibbs delivered a very scholarly address on music appreciation which helped drive home one unit of the course in the Technique and Economy of Learning offered this summer at the State College Summer School. Prof. Tibbs also gave further demonstration at the piano. The teachers enthusiastically expressed their appreciation for the illuminating and inspiring demonstrations given them Friday morning. The Service Citizens Committee of Delaware is rendering an invaluable service to the teachers and to the State in providing these extra curricular programs at the summer school.

This does not mean that you should not attempt to train your memory so that it will be able to retain more—be more reliable—be of positive value to you. It is better to know where and how valuable facts can be found than it is to have a good memory and an inclination to be interested in things that do not amount to much. I have so often heard the remark made: "He certainly is dumb," yet the person of whom the remark was made had a greater store of knowledge than the person who made the remark. Which would you rather know: When you rather know. All the billard champions' names, where they were born, when they won their titles, etc., or: Where to look to find the names of the compositions of Coleridge-Taylor, how much he was admired, etc.? Many in our race are gifted with remarkable memories—but remember that it was not because they had wonderful memories that those who became famous attained their greatness. It was because they had knowledge of worth-while things. Do not make fun of a child in your class because he or she seems backward in his or her studies. Many of my backward schoolmates are making good in the affairs of today, while a greater portion of my know-it-all schoolmates are settled in some job where advancement is out of the question. Dr. N. T. Harris (white) a great American educator once said: "The mind can become so overloaded with lumber that there is no room for a workshop." If you have a good memory, place only good things in it. Mr. Frazier: Could you possibly give me an idea how rainfall is measured? So often I read, "The rain fall last night was 1.73 inches." —P.D.W. Answer: Rainfall is measured by means of a rain gauge. A rain gauge consists of a small metal cylinder, the lid of which is in the form of a funnel with a specified diameter. Inside the cylinder is a glass vessel for collecting the rain. The rim of the funnel is usually composed of brass, while the rest of the contrivance is of copper or japanned metal, which serves as a protection against rust. Various types of rain gauges are in use at the present time. Some have a diameter of eight inches, and contain a metal bucket, from which the rain is measured; others are three inches smaller, and contain a glass vessel graduated in half-inches, from which the water is poured into another more finely graduated bottle. In one invention the rain from an ordinary receiver passes to a cylinder fitted with a float. To the float is attached a lever, which raises and lowers a sliding pen. The latter works on a revolving drum similar to those used on the barograph, the instrument often seen in windows of opticians' shops. When one inch of rain has been collected the cylinder empties itself, and readings begin again at zero. ```markdown ``` will be given. For the next best, three theatre tickets will be given.

EMANCIPATION AND THE FREED IN AMERICAN SCULPTURE (Continued from last week) FAITHFUL SLAVES MONUMENTS At various times for several years past, there have been propositions and discussions in the newspapers and elsewhere looking to the erection, by the people of the South, of a Memorial to commemorate the faithfulness of the slaves who remained on the plantations and in the homes of their masters during the period of the Civil War. (It has also been proposed to erect a memorial to the Negro "mammies" of the South.) 9 e FAITHFUL SLAVES MONUMENT Fort Mill, S. C. Although the great memorial which the proponents have had in mind has not yet materialized, several lesser ones have been erected. Seemingly, many of these have been the tributes of individuals or families to one or a certain few ex-slaves; but a few of these memorials are of broader scope. One of the most important of these—which appears to be the first one erected—is located at Fort Mill, South Carolina.

I make this statement since it is a fact that claim has been made by other towns in the South to the distinction of being the first to erect such a monument but in each case it has been found that the claims are not valid.

The Native and the Graphophone ( Letter Series, No. 7, Prize Letter) Dear Editor: The native of Africa has just found the graphophone which was left on the coast by a group of white travelers. These travelers saw a ferocious male lion approaching and they ran off leaving the machine playing. The native is very much interested as one may see, by his countenance. At first he was very much bewildered and surprised. The man is thinking the machine must be the work of the tribe's "medicine man" who was continually telling of great wonders. The record stopped playing, and --- side of which is carved a negro 'mammy' sitting upon the steps of the 'big house' and holding a white baby in her arms; on the east side is carved an old negro man resting upon a log in the edge of a field of grain with his blade resting beside him. "On the south side is carved: "1860 "Dedicated to the Faithful Slaves who, loyal to a sacred trust toiled for the support of the army with matchless devotion, and with sterling fidelity guarded our defenseless homes, women, and O children during the struggle for the principles of the Confederate States of America. "1865 "On the north side appears: "1895 "Erected by Samuel E. White in grateful memory of earlier days with approval of the Jefferson Davis Memorial Association. Among the many faithful: Nelson White (and six others)" Whatever the merits or demerits of this monument as a work of art—as to which I am not in a position to judge—there is no gainsaying the praiseworthy motives which prompted its erection and the very laudatory character of the tribute inscribed on it. This tribute, it seems, was not intended to be restricted to the persons whose names are cited but was a tribute to faithful slaves, generally. Concerning the community which has sanctioned, and which takes pride in, such a memorial, we may well believe—as Mr. Link states, and cites certain facts to prove— "The spirit of good fellowship which existed in this community between the master and the slave in former days still exists to this day between the races." (Continued next week) the man was very sad but the machine was taken to the camp where the tribe learned to work it. (Letter Series, No. 7, Prize Letter) Dear Editor: This African native seems to be very interested in something. It is a graphophone that some missionary from America has brought to his hut in order that he might hear some of America's music. He listens to the music and sits and wonders how such sweet songs can be sung so plainly, yet no one is in sight singing. From the expression on his face he is very much amused.

Washington By reason of our former condition of servitude, and prejudice against our color, we must try to perform every duty entrusted to us, not only as well, but better than any one else, so as to receive proper consideration. How often have I wanted to say to white students that they lift themselves up in proportion as they help to lift others, and that the more unfortunate the race and the lower the scale of civilization, the more does one raise one's self by giving the assistance. We are crawling up, working up, yea bursting up. Often through oppression, unjust discrimination and prejudice, but through them all we are coming up, and with proper habits, intelligence and property, there is no power on earth that can permanently stay our progress. By Mrs. Lucille L. Davis Indoor or outdoor game for eight or more small children For this game, a long piece of string and a small key are required. The key is slipped on the string, and the ends of the string are knotted together. The children then take the string in their hands and form a circle. One of them, called the "hunter," stands in the center. The key is slipped along the string from one pair of hands to another, the players trying to prevent the "hunter" from finding out which hands cover the key. When the "hunter" locates the key, the child holding it becomes the "hunter" and takes his place in the center of the circle. NEGRO ENCYCLOPEDIA Pennington, J. W. C.—He was born a slave but later became one of the best educated men of his time. He had a degree of Doctor of Divinity conferred upon him by the University of Heidelburg, Germany. In 1836 he was called as pastor to the Dixwell Avenue Congregational Church. The church was established in 1820 and in 1829 it became a regular Congregational church. --- PAGE SEVEN DO NOT USE THE WORD "NIGGER" AN OLD GAME Don't say "nigger." Mrs. Anna P. Spencer, First Group Principal in D. C. Schools, Dead Justice Tempered with too much Mercy becomes Injustice. ENTERED PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM HERE IN 1868 ENTERED PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM HERE IN 1868 With the quiet home going of Mrs. Anna P. Spencer on Friday morning July 27, 1923, a long and useful career closed as gently as the twilight shadows deepen into night. The public schols lost one of its pioneers. Born in Newark, N. J., 1843, her early educational training was received there; later she attended schol in New Bedford, Mass., and in New York City. At an early age she married Mr. Simon P. Spencer whom she accompanied to Haiti where he was colonizing Americans of his own race. He lived only two years after their marriage and Mrs. Spencer then returned to America. From her earliest years she had high ideals and a large vision of the potentialities of her people. What profession promised more toward the realization of these than teaching? No wonder that after the Civil War she was among the first to answer the call for teachers in the Southland. Her first field was Wytheville, Va, and later the Grant School in Arlington, Va. Her career as a public school teacher in the District of Columbia began with her appointment as a teacher in 1866 at what is now called the Anthony Bowen School. Mr. John F. T. Cook was her superintendant. In 1875 she became principal of Randall School, and three years later principal of the John F. Cook School. At that time because of the limited capacity of the main building, classes were held in the church at Fourth and L Streets, N.W., and in another building on P Street between 9th and 10th Streets, N.W. When promoted in 1879 to the principalship of Summer School, the community of the John F. Cook group presented her with a testimonial letter inscribed on parchment and signed by the leading citizens. In 1882, Mrs. Spencer served as principal of the Garnet School, but later asked to be relieved of the responsibility and accepted the seventh grade. Her relationship to the D. C. public schools continued with utmost fidelity to duty until 1915, a period of forty-seven years. At that time she was placed on perpetual leave and had since made her home with her devoted nieces. Public opinion is fairly unanimous in acknowledging the sheer impossibility of accurately computing the results of a teacher's labors. She can be only one of several factors entering a life; years are required to bring fruition to her efforts; however in this instance, so abundant a harvest of good seed was sown, and so numerous have been the lives touched either directly or indirectly by her influence, always for good, that we may honestly say she will live long and honorably in the hearts of a grateful community. A pioneer in every good cause, she was among the first to join the T. B. and A. Association, devoted to the welfare of teachers. It is only proper therefore that this organization delights to pay this tribute to a life so pure, so serviceable, and so well worth emulation. Funeral services were held for Mrs. Spencer at the St. Luke's P. E. Church at one o'clock on Sunday July 29. These services were conducted by Rev. Brown and attended by many of Washington's oldest and most respected citizens. The entire school system was represented. The Honorary pall bearers were Mr. W. S. Brown, Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, Mr. Eugene Brooks, Mr. Richard Nugent, and Dr. W. S. Montgomery. The active pall bearers were Mr Arthur Boston, Mr. William Fletcher Mr. Geo. Ambler, Mr. Thos. Tasce Rev. Craig, and Mr Shelby. Interment was at Woodlawn Cemetery. THE BAPTIST EDUCATIONAL CONVENTION HELD ANOTHER MEETING. A largely attended and enthusiastic meeting of the Baptist Educational Convention of Washington, D. C., and vicinity was held in the Metropolitan Baptist Church, R Street, between 12th and 13th Streets Northwest. Dr. M. W. D. Norman, pastor, Monday July 30, 1923. A short program was rendered on which the following took a The Washington Tribune part: Rev. Kieser, the newly elected pastor of the Walker Memorial Baptist Church, sung a solo; the Rev. M. B. Strother, moderator of the Northern Virginia Baptist Association, made a splendid address on the "Needs, Value and Importance of Manassas Industrial School"; Sister Frye sung a beautiful solo, after which a discussion of the Manassas Industrial School was the order of the day. Prof. Ed. D. Howe led in the discussion, after which came questions from every angle. Among the questioners Dr. M, W. D. Norman led. The one thing that the Dr. Norman insisted upon was a definition and an explanation as to what the Professor meant when he said. "I have been authorized by the Board of Trustees to cover the Baptists and Manassas Industrial School provided I can get the assurance that the Baptist will give support to assure its future operation." the peristant insisting of Dr. Norman resulted in the following written statement from Prof. Ed. D. Howe: July 30, 1923 To the Baptist Educational Convention of Washington, D. C., and Vicinity: In presenting to you an appeal as Baptists, for support requesting the adoption of the Manassas Industrial School and taking over its control and management as Baptists, our present Board of Trustees will deed over the school as chartered under the laws of Virginia, to be operated, enlarged, developed and kept open for the colored youth of our country. If assurance of its continued operation can be given by the Baptists the white friends of the North will continue to give their support to the school. Signed: Edw. D. Howe, Upon motion by Dr. Lankins and seconded by Dr. Norman the written statement was received and adopted by the Convention and a committee was accordingly appointed by the president, L. E. Murry, to go in to the details of this matter with the Board of Trustees of the Manassas Industrial School. The following were appointed: Drs. Norman, Sayles, Pinn Lamkins and Rev. James H. Marshall This being done the Convention adjourned pending a call by the president. Lawrence E. Murry, President. Walter A. Gray, Secretary. MEDICS PICK ST.
