Terry at Charlottesville, Va., on August 1, 1922, had a rather pleasant echo in this city to-day when the physician and his wife received checks for damages, paid them by the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Company, in a private settlement out of court. Enroute from Hinton, W.Va., to this city via Washington, D.C., on a through train of the C. & O. Ry. Co., Dr. and Mrs. Terry rode in such comfort as a day coach afforded (they had been unable to procure Pullman accommodations) until they reached Charlottesville, Va. Here the conductor ordered them to vacate their seats and go into a "Jim Crow Car" ahead. Dr. Terry refused to move on the ground that he was in interstate passenger. The conductor insisted that the Terrys move because he said the car in which they were riding was reserved for white people leaving Charlottesville. The doctor was obdurate and refused to move. Thereupon a special officer of the C. & O. Ry. Co. boarded the train, arrested Dr. and Mrs. Terry and arraigned them in the police court for violating the "Jim Crow" law of Virginia. Before the police justice Dr. Terry so vehemently defended his claim to exemption from the local "Jim Crow" statute that the court allowed him to deposit nominal bail for himself and his wife and leave the city, with the (Continued on page 6) The Only Football given by the The Washington Tribune The Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company, one of the largest chain grocery store corporations in America, and owner of a number of stores here, is the first company of its kind to give recognition to the Negro in the way of clerk hire in the District. The first Negro to be hired as a clerk in a chain store here was recently employed by this company and put to work in their new store "SCARAMOUCHE" BIG FEATURE AT HOWARD THEATER What was thought lost in the way of an opportunity for the colored people of Washington to see what is termed the acme in art of motion picture production, was saved by the untiring efforts of Messrs. Fletcher Jordan and George H. Tucker of the Broadway Theatre. After several conferences with Mr. Fuller and Mr. Edmonds, representatives of the Metro pictures corporation, in an effort to secure a booking on "Scaramouche" the film men advised these showmen that it would be the middle of next year before they could talk booking, because of the existing contract with the Shubert-Belasco theatre enterprises, that no other theatre in the cities where they are running contracts would play "Scaramouche" until one year after their last play date and had been advertised to that effect. Success however was the final result of some strenuous effort to get this right wavered, which was finally granted on a mutual agreement as to (Continued on page 3) HAMILTON ore Appoints Paul Mason as Clerk Truck Tea chain Ameri-stores of its Negro Dis- hired store was company opened in the Evans building, at the corner of 12th and U Streets, N.W. Paul Mason, former newspaperman of this city, is the man selected. Although there are over a hundred chain stores located in sections where from 50 per cent to 90 per cent of their trade is from Negroes, the A. & P. store located in the Evans building is the only store where you may be waited on by a Negro. SMITH COMPANY DISCRIMINATES AGAINST PATRONS Washington patrons of music received a severe shock recently when the T. Arthur Smith, Music Co., Inc., who are members of the National Concert Managers Association, addressed a letter to a local music leader informing him that he (the Negro musician) would be unable to attend the concert at the New National Theatre. J. Henry Lewis, director and manager of The Amphion Glee Club, who is very prominently known in music circles here, and who has been patron of the concerts held under the auspices of the National Concert Association for over six years was the one so addressed. At the end of each season Mr. Lewis has renewed his subscription and his tickets have been sent him regularly. This year he heard a rumor that Negroes were not to be admitted to the concerts. Being one of the patrons and also a Negro, Mr. Lewis addressed the following letter to the Smith company.

HAITIANS DIE IN DUNGEONS New York City—According to information received here by Joseph Mirault, American correspondent for the "Courrier Haitien" one of the leading papers in Haiti, two of the Haitian leaders have died as a result of being incarcerated by the American Army of Occupation. The two leaders who have given their lives for the saving of their national integrity are Aurelien Pierre and Parfait Benoit. Both are members of the Nationalist party and have been very active in trying to re-establish Haitian independence. During the past summer the American officer ordered the men arrested and placed in prison. 'After being in prison for several weeks they were released without trial; later, however, they were re-incarcerated and held until their death. It is alleged that while they were in prison they were offered a certain amount of money to cease opposing the American occupation which is decidedly unpopular on the Island, but they refused. Since this refusal they, it is further claimed, have been subjected to all kinds of physical tortures. The dungeon where they were held was so small that they could not even lie down in it. The only ration they received was a small portion of bread and water. After the death of the two men, the American officials made a desperate attempt to keep the matter secret but it leaked out about two weeks ago. Election of a new president of the island will be held. At this time the people are also supposed to elect deputies and senators for the House of Deputies and the Senate, respectively. Both of these bodies were dissolved by the American Army of Occupation at the point of bayonets. At the present time, so far as it is known, Jolibois Fils, Elie Cuerin, Antoine Pierre-Paul and George Petit, all leaders among the Nationalist group, are now in prison experiencing all kinds of sufferings. In-as-much as the January elections are not far off, it is very doubtful if these men will be permitted their freedom until after that time, even if they are so fortunate as to survive in their present conditions that long. The people of the island are planning an appeal to send to President Coolidge asking that they be given their constitutional rights. SAYS TITLE TO DOUGLASS PARK IS ALL CLEAR President Washington Development Corporation, Owners of Douglass Park, Makes Full Statement Clearing up Any Questions About Property. Dr. W. H. Jernagin Approves Statement. November 16, 1923. To the Public: We have received some inquiries recently regarding the title to lots in Douglass Park, and for that reasons we desire to make the following statement: "The title to Douglass Park property is perfect, having been traced back more than one hundred years and found to be as complete as a title can be. We are delivering perfect fee simple deeds to lots in Douglass Park as full payment is made, and we expect to continue to do so."

Scott Interest in the big football classic between Howard and Lincoln is at a higher pitch this year than ever before in the history of these schools. This game now draws more race people than any other event. When Referee Gibson blows his whistle in the National League Park in Philadelphia, at least one-fourth of the hugh throng that will be assembled there, will be from the capital of the nation. It is estimated that over 15,000 people will witness the game this year, if the weather is good. The vanguard of the crowd will leave here with the Howard team and band, which leaves Wednesday morning. The Howard band will compete with the Robert C. Ogden Association band of Philadelphia and the Imperial Elks Band of New York City for the Rodman Wanamaker Trophy.

CONTEST BIG CONTEST CLOSES WITH MANY BEAUTY ENTRANTS MISS HAMILTON THANKS TRIBUNE I hardly know how to express my appreciation for the honor bestowed upon me by the Judges of the Beauty Contest in selecting me to be "Miss Washington." I am so excited over the honor I hardly know what to say, but I shall do my best to officially represent Washington at the big football classic and I certainly hope Howard will win. I wish to assure The Tribune that I appreciate this honor. (Signed) THELMA HAMILTON Miss Thelma Hamilton of 2311 H Street, northwest, was announced Thursday afternoon as the winner of The Tribune's Beauty Contest. Miss Hamilton will be officially given the title of "Miss Washington" and will be the guest of The Tribune at the big football classic, the Howard-Lincoln game in Philadelphia on Thanksgiving Day. "Miss Washington" was selected from a large number of entrants and so close was the contest that it was with great difficulty that the judges were able to finally Miss Hamilton is a typical Washingtonian in every respect. She was born and reared in the District of Columbia. She attended the graded and the high schools here, graduating from Miner Normal in 1918. She has been a teacher in the public schools here for over two years. At present she is assigned to kindergarten work at Birney School, Anacostia. Miss Hamilton will carry her mother as her chaperone. "Miss Washington," as Miss Hamilton will henceforth be called, is very popular among the younger set and is well liked and admired by all. She is well fitted by training and experience for the honor that has befallen her, that of officially representing Washington at the greatest social event in the country. Contest a Great Success The Beauty Contest was one of the most successful contests of its kind ever conducted by either white or colored in the District. It was the first of its kind to be open to Tribune readers and their appreciation of same was shown by the very large number who entered. COLN ember 29th ECEPTION LOCALS AND SOCIETY PAGE TWO Many people are taking advantage of the Free Clinic at the Central Chiropractic College, 1914, 7th Street, N.W. These clinics offer an opportunity for free adjustments. The clinic is in charge of Doctors Gilbert P. Brown and Ethel G. Wood. Perhaps you worry because your children do not seem to be interested in the news of the day. They seem to lack interest in reading news papers. We would recommend that you suggest to them that the "Children's Page" of this paper is interesting. Turn to page seven and read this page written especially for Negro children, and you will be convinced that this page for your children is all that you can expect. The whole theme of Mr. Frazier's endeavor is to inculcate race pride in the younger generation. Mention the page to your children. The Columbia National Forum rendered a high-class musical and literary program at the 12'h Street Y. M.C. A last Thursday evening. An oration on "The American Negro" by Earl A. Ballard received special favor and comment. After exercises and refreshments, officers were elected for the year. Ladies have a standing invitation to attend these regular weekly meetings.

S. Pub- ‘lie Health Service, Dr, A. B. Jackson, ‘Director of the Schoo! of Public ‘Health is making an epidemiological study of respiratory diseases among the students of Howard University. It is customary to regard the Negro as most susceptible to this class of ‘diseases. In making up vital statis- ‘tics whole groups are taken and Istudied, and no.difference made as to Ithe various degrees of intelligence, |manner of living, and physical care. |‘This method is correct, but in most ‘instanees because of the large per- ‘centage of ignorance with its conse- ‘quent indifference among Negroes, ou: whole race suffers by comparison with the whites, ‘The study being made at Howaré ‘University by Dr. ‘Jackson should ‘prove most interesting inasmuch as ‘he is dealing with a relatively select group whose method of living and lkmowledge of health are about on pat with thet of'a similar group of whites. A questionaire has been filled by every |student of the University, dealing with the past and present history of leach regarding his common colds, | pneumonia, tuberenlosis, _ tonsflitis, ‘ote, Every two weeks a check is made to determine the development of any such affections during the interim. | Inasmuch as Howard’s students ‘come from every part of the country, ‘a wonderful opportunity is afforded to ‘study the various types of susceptibili- ‘ty manifested by those from climates differmg from that of Washington. Many aucitions are to be answered by this survey. What sections of the country show the greatesf prevaleney to the respiratory diseases? How do climates and habits of living affect the issue? What part do out-door life and exercise play? Finally, what are the predisposing conditions which soom to favor or check such diseases, and to what extent are they preventable?

Mr. Bond outlined briefly the history of the “Y” in this city and regretted that the work had temporarily reached a low ebb. He stated, however, that in one way this condition was fortunate. The present situation presented a challenge to the people of Washington which they were enthusiastically ac- cepting. Dr. J. E. Moorland spoke on the great possibility of the work in this city. In his usual clear dynamic manner he sketched the great prog- [ress being made by the Y. M. C.

In the first quarter neither team was able to score though Dunbar gained considerable advantage in the exchange of points which were frequent. The kicking of Burton was the feature of this period. In the second period on a fumbled punt by Williams of Bordentown Dunbar recovered the ball on Bordentown's one-yard line. After the referee had decided that the ball was legally in possession of Dunbar the unpire caused the decision to be reversed and in the next play Bordentown kicked out of danger. Dunbar then started a series of smashing line plays but was unable to score. With the ball in her possession on her forty-yard line Bordentown sent Williams around Dunbar's right end for what appeared to a sure score. Williams ran past all of Dunbar's tacklers but was downed on the thirty-yard line when Robinson tackled him fiercely. Robinson knocked himself out and had to be withdrawn from the game. Bordentown never again threatened seriously. From this point Dunbar by a varied attack worked the ball into Bordentown's territory and when the half ended was on her one-yard line. In the third period after an exchange of punts Dunbar with the ball in Bordentown's territory smashed her line and passed over her head and finally sent Bryson over her goal line for the only touchdown of the day. Burton added the extra point by a drop kick. The Bordentown team fought stubbornly every step of the way, and tried desperately to tie the score in the final period. There were only two penalties during the entire game and Bordentown got these for offside.

Southwest Office, 403 4 $ _{1} $ St., S. W., FLOYD C. PAYNE, Manager Record Crowd to Cheer Howard (Continued from page 1) Tribune's beauty contest will leave on this special. Howard's easy victory over Hampton, and Lincoln's annihilation of Shaw, only served to make the "classic" more difficult to dope. Howard, on paper, appears the turkey day winner by a very slim margin. Again its the attack of the Howard backfield that gives this edge. The Lincoln line is more experienced and shapes as being stronger than the Howard forward wall. The locals are matched against a defense better than any met this year. Only the two ends remain from the 1922 Howard line. Coach Watson has done wonders with the five performers from tackle to tackle. In the kicking game Doneghy will outkick Crudop. Lee has been the Lion's best punter for two years but has failed to show enough versatility to be kept in the game. Crudop therefore has notably carried Lincoln's kicking burden. Both Crudop and Doneghy are dangerous at scoring field goals which may be the margin of victory. Unless Doneghy can show better form in placing his punts Byrd's ability at open field running may offset any advantage gained on distance. Blackman can not come up to Byrd in this department. The overhead game probably favors Lincoln. Both teams will have to depend on linemen—Morgan and Doakes—for throwing long passes. Williams and Lancaster are best at receiving. Man for man the players prove the teams to be about evenly matched. Regarding ends, Lincoln is given the edge. Lancaster is best of the entire group. Crudup has been a most valuable man to his team this fall. Lincoln will keep a close eye on Williams whose alertness, brain and offensive strength make him a much feared person. Long will get the call over Johnson on the other Howard end. The status of Skinker at Lincoln is unknown. He may be out with the squad, if so, will likely get in the game provided he is in conditio. Hogan fits in either at end or tackle. It may be said of the tackles that Coston on experience and ruggedness stands out. He will be in at least two-thirds of the plays. For the first time in his high school and college career this former M Street High star was forced to take time out in the Lincoln-Hampton game in Baltimore on account of injuries. The writer knows little of the abilities of Johnson and Wilson, one of whom will play the other Lincoln tackle. The Bisons can boast of an exceptional pair in Smith and Doakes. The bulk of the attack of both elephants will be aimed at the tackles and if a weakness in this sector is discovered, victory is likely to follow. Guards and Centers Guards: Carter, Poindexter and Walls are more seasoned guards than Anderson, Kelley and Bagley. The battle between the selected four is certain to be interesting. field star is almost certain to be offered a contract for next year if he wants it, regardless of the outcome of the "classic." The same might be said of Young. Probable line-up: Howard Lincoln Williams L.E. Lancaster Smith L.T. Coston Kelley L.G. Poindexter Priestley Center Morgan Anderson R.G. Carter Doakes R.T. S.L.

Dear Sirs: There are persistent run colored people (except those pass") will not be permitte the recitals which are ann der your auspices to be h At center Morgan towers over Priestley. The former is one of the main cogs of the Lion machine. However Priestley fits in Watson's style perfectly. This was forcibly exemplified when he caught a Va. Normal back when the latter had a clear field in front of him. The Backfield The Howard string of backs overshadows that of the Pennsylvanians. Dongey and Byrd are the luminaries and the marked men. Contee's value to Howard is best explained by a remark of a visiting coach to the writer early in the season; "but for Contee's defensive work, we would have beaten Howard today." We believe Contee to be the best defensive back of the year. Captain Johnson is a good ball-carrier and an exceptional defensive player. We have never seen "Whirlwind" at his best. Next Thursday may be his day. Lincoln may uncover another Byrd (who this time last year was a despised substitute) out of Goodman, the two Taylors, Brown, Lee or Pollitt. Peyton and Melton will test the strength of Young's line. Blackman at times has shown flashes of ground gaining ability. He is also a real smart general. Dodson has plenty of speed. Coaches Have Done Well Coach Watson has stated that every Howard regular came out of the Hampton game in perfect condition. Lincoln suffered no casualties in the Shaw game and all the players who have been ailing during the season are ready for the first whistle. Two comparatively youngsters are leading the teams in the capacity of coaches. Against unsurmountable odds of unpleasant conditions, dissatisfaction and green material Watson has brought the Bison squad through undefeated, showing improvement with every outing. The former Spring- field star is almost certain to be offered a contract for next year if he wants it, regardless of the outcome of the "classic." The same might be said of Young.

ARTHUR SMITH COMPANY DISCRIMINATES AGAINST NEGRO PATRONS (Continued from page 1) T. Arthur Smith, Inc., Concerts-Lectures, Recitals, etc., 1306 G Street, N.W. Smith company. October 30, 1923 T. Arthur Smith, Co. Inc. There are persistent rumors that colored people (except those who "can pass") will not be permitted to enjoy the recitals which are announced under your auspices to be held at The National Theatre beginning Tuesday afternoon November 6th. I have been a patron of yours for these recitals during the past five or six seasons, renewing my subscription for the course promptly at the close of each seasons, accompanying E. P. Revells, 1777 T St., N.W. I hold five tickets entitling me to a seat in row E (seat 18) second balcony for the recitals by The Philadelphia Orchestra whom I very much admire, and am anxious to hear. Although employed in one of the government departments, I am and have been intreeted in music among my group for more than 30 years (circular concerning same enclosed) and these recitals have been a great stimulus in my work. The object of this communication is to request you to kindly advise concerning this matter, so that I may not suffer the humiliation of being refused admission should I present myself at these recitals.

Our personal opinion and attitude is to invite the co-operation and patronage of all who are interested in good music, and we regret any incident that may indicate a change in our purpose. The excuse of the Smith Company to the effect that because they are renting the theatre they must comply with the regulations of the Theatre owners, has failed by a long way to satisfy the colored music followers of this city. This company has been the recipient of hundreds of dollars of business from the colored people and now it chooses to discriminate against these very same customers. The incident has engendered a very bitter feeling among the colored people he towards the Smith Company.

BUSHMAN-BAYNE'S "MODERN MARRIAGE" GENUINELY THRILLING Francis X. Bushman and Beverly Bayne, in planning a return to the screen, could not have chosen more wisely than to star in "Modern Marriage," which comes to the Broadway Theatre Sunday. It is a picture replete with emotional clashes and physical thrills and is played throughout in the richest, most sumptuous environment. "Modern Marriage" is a society drama of life in New York and its vicinity. Quick in its pace, tense in action and powerful of climax it bids fair to stand out as one of the most satisfying pictures of the year, to say nothing of the importance attaching to it as a means-of bringing back two favorites to a loyal public.

The President has issued his proclamation setting aside Thursday, November 29, as the day for returning thanks to Almighty God for his manifold blessings. The people of these United States are enjoying "peace, power and plenty," while the old world is in chaos. The terrible disaster in Japan, the depression and chaos in Germany, are the outstanding events of this year. We of the United States can be greatful for living in what is, in certain respects, the greatest era of civilization that the world has known. When compared with the lives and times of other countries, we have much for which to be thankful. But remember, each era of civilization has had its zenith and its decline. We are going at a rapid pace. We can be thankful of the knowledge of a free and full Christianity. We can also be thankful of the knowledge of the white man's insincerity. There is an old saying which says: "So long as you do not know of a thing, it will not hurt you." But that is not true in this case. The white man has been insincere with the Negro for years but the Negro has only recently begun to recognize that fact. This knowledge is arousing racial consciousness, as nothing else could, and we certainly should be thankful for that. The lack of race pride and race consciousness has been an awful bane to the progress of the race. We are grateful for anything that will inspire, encourage and spur us onward in the great march of civilization. We are truly grateful for the large number of students in the various private and public schools of the country. Washington has the largest number in the schools this year of record. Ignorance holds people in its grip of inactivity and crime. While the schools may not be up to the desired standard, they are the best means of securing an education that the government and the States have to offer. May we continue to avail ourselves of the advantages offered through this medium and be thankful for the opportunity the free schools offer. May we ask God's direction in the forming of a program for the continued progress of the race that will bring about results for a greater Thanksgiving Day in 1924. Are you grateful and happy this Thanksgiving Day? THE BEAUTY CONTEST The big beauty contest of The with a bang.

There were sixty-seven entrants which was a larger number than any such contest has ever attracted in this city, regardless of color. In the final elimination, the judges had eleven of the beauties to appear in person. This was a colorful display of the manifold shades and tints which characterize the colored women of the United States—the most beautiful women in all the world. This contest of The Tribune is the first of its kind to be run by a paper of our group. It was free, even to the making of the photograph of each entrant. The trip, also the clothes, hat, and service from the various beauty shops and restaurants, are gifts of gratitude. In Miss Thelma Hamilton, as "Miss Washington" for the Howard-Lincoln Thanksgiving game, The Tribune, Howard University and the City of Washington will be handsomely represented. We hope this is the beginning of an annual feature of the Howard-Lincoln game, that will prove an outstanding social event and one of inspiration and service. The Tribune has received hundreds of compliments on its initial effort and has added another characteristic service to its list of many good things done for Washington during its less than three years of existence. VIEWS OF THE PRESS VIEWS OF THE PRESS THE KLAN MOVES NORTH That the Ku Klux Klan is working north is obvious now to any one who read the election returns from Ohio. Klan-indorsed candidates had the advantage throughout the southern half of the State, and growing membership is reported from leading communities of Northern Ohio. Ku Klux papers are best-sellers on the streets of many cities. Ohio is going in for the Klan But strangest of all is the rapidity with which the disease runs its course Ohio now has, the largest Klan membership, Indiana is second and Texas third. One year ago the Southern states would have claimed much the greater membership. In Oklahoma Texas and States adjoining the force has pretty well played itself out. In Ohio and Indiana it is a new game not well understood but most exciting It's a way to win an election, a way to enforce your code of morals on your neighbors without bothering to change the laws, and an excuse for being out late at night. Logically, it should prove to have the same fascination in Pennsylvania and New York. Bay Shore is said to have had a Klan parade a mile long. A parade couldn't grow to such a length if there weren't some excuse for the order in many minds. Judging by what the Klan has done elsewhere, that excuse is a moral one. Most of the well-meaning citizens who join, no doubt honestly expect to work within the order for reforms so vital as occasionally to justify lawless methods. When the difference between Klan pretense and practices becomes evident Ohio members will drift PAGE SIX again.

Jones, president of the National Education Association of the United States addressed the Columbian Educational Association of Washington on Tuesday afternoon, November 20, in the assembly hall of the Dunbar High School. The association is composed of officers and teachers of the tenth, eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth divisions of the local public schools and there were more than six hundred present in the audience to greet the President of the National body. The meeting was held under the auspices of the Columbian Education Association Garnet C. Wilkinson, Assistant Superintendent of schools, after making brief remarks, urging the teachers to affiliate with the national organization called upon M. Grant Lucas, president of the local body of teachers, to present the speaker. In her address Miss Jones laid great emphasis on the value of organized efforts in bringing about desirable progress in the field of education, "Teachers must align themselves," she said, "with the forces of good against the forces of evil and conspiracy." She then explained the terms of affiliation with the National Educational Association, showing the need of universal co-operation and announced the coming convention of the national organization next summer in the national capital, where the sources of inspiration and instruction are more varied than in any other place in the country. away.

Church, 5th and P Streets, Northwest, on last Friday evening, November 16th, with the following church quartets competing: Metropolitan Baptist, Asbury M. E., Third Baptist, and Vermont Avenue Baptist. The judges decided the contest in favor of the Third Baptist Quartet composed of the following persons: 1st tenor, Romeo Outlaw; 2nd tenor, James Toms; 1st bass, Alfonso Freeman and 2nd bass, Frank Poole. The prize was a Silver Set which was presented to the Third Baptist church in public last Sunday morning to the delight of a crowded house. Mr. Broadnax was chairman of the judges.

Subsequently, however, the Court rejected the authorities submitted by counsel for the Terrys and decided the case against them. Attorney James C. Waters, J., of Washington, represented the Terrys. Following the unfavorable outcome at Charlottesville, Mr. Waters squared off for a fight before the District of Columbia, where he felt his clients would fare better. The Company showed fight at first but backed down subsequently and agreed to settle. The checks received to-day are a complete vindication of the courageous stand taken by Dr. and Mrs. Terry at the time of their arrest, and constitute a warning to other "Jim Crow" railroads in this country. The amount agreed upon in the settlement has not been made public but it is understood to have been a tidy sum. Meanwhile, there will be no more arrests on the C. & O. Railroad for refusing to obey the "Jim Crow" laws of Virginia. She will lunch at either the Roadside Hotel or the Attucks Hotel. After lunch, she will then motor to the National League Park, where the big classic will be played. Immediately after the game, "Miss Washington" will return to her quarters and prepare for dinner. After resting, she will begin a tour of inspection of various places of interest in the city. "Miss Washington" will then go to the big Concert and Reception at the Academy of Music where Ford Dabney and a collection of stars from Ziegfield Follies will perform. After gliding over the Crystal floor, "Miss Washington" will then go to the Football Classic Reception at the Third Regiment Armory, where the football, a token of victory will be presented to the winning team. Everything to make "Miss Washington's" trip one long to be remembered, will be done. All of her expenses will be paid by The Washington Tribune. The Tribune is very grateful to all who entered this contest and is exceedingly sorry only one young lady could be selected. The management also wish to thank the judges, Mme Madeline Smith and Prof. James V Herring, for their services and assistance. a student at the University three years.
