PLACES STOCK ON MARKET MILLION DOLLAR FINANCE CORP. PLACES STOCK ON MARKET First in Local Circulation. Maso CONTROL OF THE PROPERTY SOUG AGAINST LODG Through Attorneys Gaskins and Bowler, the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free, Ancient and Accepted Masons of the District of Columbia, incorporated, has asked the District Supreme Court to enjoin Henry C. Scott, John H. T. Fisher, Alfred E. Robinson, Elijah Smoot and Henry S. Washington from exercising any acts of control or ownership over certain real estate which it claims belongs to it. According to the bill of complaint, the defendants executed and filed in the office of the Recorder of Deeds a paper, by virtue of which they sought to defraud the plaintiff of its corporate rights and to change the name of the corporation to "The Right Worshipful, Provincial Grand Lodge, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, Scottish Rite (Symbolic) of the District of Columbia." It is claimed that the defendants, pretending to act as trustees of the plaintiff corporation, executed a document purporting to transfer title to the property in litigation to them- MILLION DOLLAR PLACES STOCK Durham, N. C.—With its organization machinery perfected and plans and purposes fully outlined, the National Negro Finance Corporation, capitalized at $1,000,000 with headquarters in this city and with a directorate comprising a number of influential and successful men of the race in various sections of the country, has already made remarkable progress in the matter of having its stock subscribed by Negroes who realize and appreciate the wonderful service this corporation proposes to render the race, besides the splendid opportunity it offers for the investment of funds. Organized a short time ago, the interest this project has elicited from the people of the country has been phenomenal. Purposes Outlined The purposes of the National Negro Finance Corporation are not only to be a service station for the financial organizations which the race is already successfully conducting, but with safety, soundness and in keeping with good business principles, it proposes to extend credit in order that it might be able to further foster, encourage and build new enterprises. A clearing house for investments, it is proposed to be not only for Negro securities, but for any securities which may be offered the race group. With such purposes as above outlined, this corporation will render the race a two-fold service not heretofore available to it—the promotion of economic solidarity through loans to promising enterprises and through the sale of stock it invites a public ownership with profits to be shared by the public. Aside from the hope of personal profit, there is the large and more serviceable aspect of placing one's money at the disposal of his race for the economic development and to create a vast field for employment of the thousands of young colored men and women who annually leave the schools and colleges.

Since the execution of this deed, it is alleged, the defendants have exercised control and ownership over this real estate and have taken and converted the rents and profits from it to their own use. The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge asks the court to issue an order during the pendency of this suit restraining the defendants from exercising any acts of control or ownership over this property and to make such order permanent upon the final determination. A temporary receiver to collect the rents and profits is also asked for. The court is also asked to declare the certificates recorded in the office of the Recorder of Deeds, changing the name null and void. The plaintiff corporation would also have the court to declare the deed, by which the property was conveyed to the defendants, null and void, and the defendants ordered to reconvey the property to the plaintiff corporation. FINANCE CORP. K ON MARKET best known for their business success and integrity in handling huge sums of money entrusted to their care. This, too, has done much to stimulate confidence in the project and certainly augurs for its immediate success. Dr. R. R. Moton is the president and Mr. C. C. Spaulding is first vice-president and chairman of the executive board. The secretary-manager is W. Gomez, who has made such a brilliant success of the Banker's Fire Insurance Company. The connection of Dr. Robert R. Moton and Mr. C. C. Spaulding with the project lends to it an atmosphere of soundness and stability enjoyed by few new enterprises. These two men head the largest and most substantial organizations in the race requiring the highest type of executive management. Associated with them is a group of the strongest men financially of this race. Each of them has a personal interest in the success of the National Negro Finance Corporation, as well as being actuated by a desire to promote the financial interests of their race.

CAMPAIGN WORKERS CHOSEN RY COMPROMISE The factional and sectional fights waged for control of the Republican national campaign among colored voters has resulted in a general compromise. Each faction was given representation in the personnel thus far selected. Advisory Committee Three colored men were put on the general advisory committee, which is headed by C. Bascom Slemp, secretary to the President. They are Robert R. Church, wealthy business man of Memphis, Tenn.; Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, Washington, D.C., and Robert L. Vann, editor of the Pittsburgh Courier, Pittsburgh, Pa. The coveted position of director of the national campaign among colored voters was given to William C. Matthews, an attorney of Boston, Mass. Charles E. Mitchell, banker and business manager of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute, Institute, W. Va., will be in charge of the colored bureau at the eastern headquarters in New York. W. T. Francis, an attorney of St. Paul, Minn., will have charge of the colored bureau in the Chicago headquarters. A special headquarters in Washington, D.C., will be in charge of Perry W. Howard Mississippi member of the Republican National Committee. Speakers The chief campaign speakers will be Henry Lincoln Johnson, Georgia member of the Republican National Committee; William H. Lewis, an attorney of Boston, Mass.; Roscoe C. Simmons, a journalist of Chicago, Ill., who was connected with the Coolidge preconvention campaign; Charles W. Anderson, collector of internal revenue, New York; B. J. Davis, editor of the Atlanta Independent, Atlanta, Ga., and J. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks, Washington, D.C. This amicable settlement was reached very largely through the attitude of National Committeeman Howard and Johnson. They took the positioin that membership on the National committee would suffice in honors for themselves and that others who had served the party should be given consideration. As a result, it is said, all breaches have been healed and there is a feeling of good-will among colored Republican leaders. Tribune's Route to Manassas, Va. ROUTE No. 1—Distance 40 miles.

O. P. IS SUCCESSFULLY BLOCKED The Coolidge-Dawes Republican League, of which Thomas L. Jones is the president, was addressed at its meeting at the Whitelaw Hotel last Friday night by W. T. Galliher, chairman of the Republican State Central Committee of the District of Columbia. He spoke along civic as well as political lines. His address was largely an exposition of the necessity of the right to vote being given to residents of the District. He outlined the history of the ratio of taxation between the Federal Government and the District. He told of the appointment of a commission which decided upon a contribution of 50 per cent by the Federal Government. Later, he said, this was changed to 40 per cent, and now the Congress has decided to appropriate the lump sum of $9,000,000, which is less than 33 per cent and necessitates Congress; he declared that the people here would not be treated so niggardly. He then began a comparison of the three presidential candidates. He declared that both John W. Davis, the Democratic nominee, and Senator Robert M. LaFollete, the independent candidate, personally were fine men but that their platforms were such that impelled support of Calvin Coolidge. He closed by telling his hearers how WENDELL P. TUC SUPT.

The announcement of the filling of this post has been anxiously awaited, and the present appointee has been the recipient of most enthusiastic congratulations from his many friends. Mr. Tucker is a graduate from the College of Arts and Sciences of Howard University of the class of 1913. He also studied Law in New York University. Since leaving school he has held many and varied positions. For four years, he taught English and was director of Athletics and Welfare work at the Georgia State College, which work brought him into close and sympathetic touch with the various delinquencies and needs of youth. During the beginning of the American entry into the World War, Mr. Tucker was engaged in Camp Y. M. C. A. Work, where according to reliable sources, he distinguished himself for meritorious services. He resigned from this work to enter the U.S. Army. In the following time he has had a varied and successful experience in many fields of endeavor: work in accounting and statistics for the U. S. Government, practical business experience, and probation work for the District of Clumbia, are a few of the activities with which he has been successfully identified.

At the conclusion of his remark's Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, spoke. He scored segregation and discrimination in the Government departments. He also criticised the Democrats for their actions in regard to the Howard University appropriation, but spoke very favorably of Senator La Foleltte. He also told of the incident that occurred at the grave of Inez Milholland when the National Woman's Party sought to draw the color line. Early in the proceedings of the meeting, an attempt was made to read James A. Cobb out of the Republican party, but this was promptly squashed by Mr. Jones.

Scott) Baltimore, Md., August 23—"Youth shall not be served" was the grim determination of Tally Holmes, veteran tennis racket wielder, when he reached the Druid Hill Park tennis courts, this morning, and found the two youthful sensations, Ayre Saitch of New York and Ted Thompson of Washington, looming between him and his fourth national singles title. On every side was head the remark. "Tally will not TALLY HOLMES reach the finals." His opponents were credited with greater natural tennis ability, aided by the more powerful, modern slashing game but those who picked the youngsters failed to reckon with the veterans' one superior qualification—court generalship. Tally gave both Saitch and Thompson sound beatings, chiefly because of his wanted it and thereby forcing his opponents to play the lobbing game. Holmes conquered Saitch in straight sets in the morning, 7-5, 6-4, and mastered Thompson in the afternoon in the finals, 6-4, 6-3, 2-6, 6-4. To face this pair the national champion brushed aside four other strong opponents, defeating W. R. Granger, 6-2, 6-2; Sterling Brown (Washington) 6-3, 2-6, 6-1; Gomez (New York), 6-3, 6-2; and McGriff (Va.), 0-6- 8-6, 6-2. McGriff gave Holmes the hardest battle and only by a great spurt did the latter emerge victorious after dropping the first set via the "love" route. Thompson reached the final round by taking the measure of R. Hudlin' (St. Louis) in straight sets, 6-3, 9-7. On his way to this round, Ted met and defeated Taylor (Norfolk), 6-3; 7-5; A. E. McDowell (N. Y.) 6-3, 6-1; Eddie Davis (D. C.) 4-6, 6-1, 6-4; G. Smith (N. Y.), 6-4, 6-2; and J. W. Anderson (Va.) 6-2, 6-4. Locals Win In Doubles Another Washington victory was attained in men's doubles. Holmes and Thompson running true to form, swept aside five combinations to land the championship title. Saitch and Smith, the New York team, were met and beat in the final round, 6-2, 6-4, 6-2. In their march to the doubles title, the District players defeated Harris and Stobbs 6-0; 6-1; Crichton and Buchanan, 6-1, 6-1; S. Brown and A. Davis, 6-1, 6-2; and Walker and Rhetta, 1-6, 6-0, 6-3. Late Hours Costly Another national title might have fallen to the lot of the District had not Allen Woolridge, 1923 junior champion, waited until the wee hours on Saturday morning before retiring. Woolridge after a few hours rest, overslept himself and reported to the courts two hours late to find that the junior title had been rightfully awarded by defeat to Russell Smith, Chicago. By his showing in the men's singles Woolridge was an overwhelming favorite to retain the junior crown which he won last year. Most Successful Tournament Most Successful Tournament In awarding the cups to the various winners, Dr. Harry S. McCard, presi- dent of the American Tennis Association, stated that this year's tour- nament was by far the greatest in the Association's eight years of opera- tion. Large crowds viewed the matches each day while today's crowd numbered about 2,000. Nearly 300 matches were played-off on five courts during the six days. Prof. George Battle of the Lincoln Theatre who has been visiting friends in Richmond, Va., has returned to the city.

TALLY HOLMES REGAINS NATIONAL SINGLES TITLE TALLY HOLMES REGAINS NATIONAL SINGLES TITLE This writer made the prediction in these columns some weeks ago that the winner of the 1924 national singles championship would be the player that defeated Tally Holmes. In Baltimore, Saturday, tennis lovers saw this veteran subdue in one day his two most formidable opponents, both of whom had but a short time previous decisively defeated him in the finals of two open tournaments. It was in Baltimore in 1917 that Tally Holmes won the first national singles championship of the American Tennis Association. Another national victory was gathered by him in 1918 at New York while his last title was won here in 1921. It was quite fitting that Holmes' fourth national title should be garnered in Baltimore, where he could receive an ovation the like of which has never before been equalled in the annals of Negro tennis. But the proudest of all who witnessed his triumph were Mrs. Holmes who ran out on the court to caress and kiss her husband and their three-year old baby boy, young Tally, who raced behind his mother, fully conscious that his father had added more silver ware to the family's chest. The greatest figure in the history of the American Tennis Association reigns supreme for another year. THEY FLOCK TO MANASSAS EVERY LABOR DAY Labor Day—to hundreds of Washingtonians in past years has meant a trip to the Manassas, Virginia, Horse Show. This year promises to be no exception. It is predicted that the largest crowd in the history of the events will witness the horse show at the Virginia town, next Monday and Tuesday. The show will be in progress two days, September 1st and 2nd. Four races over a new half-mile track and twenty-six riding classes will be exhibited each day. In addition many games, a carnival and a dancing pavilion will afford every person enjoyment. The trip can be made by automobile over excellent roads. The Directors of the affair have promised that nothing will be left undone to guarantee the comfort and enjoyment of their visitors.

It has been our contention that if Rube Foster were a shrewd mogul that a conciliation with Ed Bolden would have long since closed.

It would be a great thing for Negro baseball. But with the East determined to grow even at the expense of the West and the West predominated by the "egotistical Rube" who has failed to note the "hand writing," it is believed that a meeting is far, far away.

Wills, he said was in better condition now than he has been since he knocked out Sam Langford back in 1918. DeForest added: "Wills is much faster, apparently stronger, and his wind and judgment of distance amazingly improved. In fact Harry looked TOO good, and I told him so." "Up to the time that I saw him, Harry had been running six miles daily on the road. This was a little too much at the time, for when I saw him the big Negro weighed 222 pounds. "But one thing I noted: Harry is very careful of his hands. His maulers seem to be all right, but nevertheless he favors them a great deal. I noted particularly that he used an electric vibrator pretty freely on his left hand. This hand, according to gossip, is supposed to be his "good" hand—it's his right that the boys have tabbed as his "bad" one, the one that gives him the most trouble. "Harry Wills used light sparring partners when he trained for his bout with Bartley Madden. For this contest with Firpo he is using heavier men. He has two big fellows, Battling Owens, a 235-pound man, and Jeff Clarke, 195 pounds, as his boxing opponents. He boxes six rounds, three rounds with each. Of course this will be gradually increased as the date of the fight approaches. "If he keeps on improving between now and the day of the fight with Firpo, Harry Wills certainly will not be able to plead lack of condition if Daisy Angel Firpo should defeat him."

Ernest Greenwood, vice-president of the school board and chairman of the committee on public buildings and grounds, says the public schools of Washington are "a national disgrace." Mr. Greenwood evidently knows whereof he speaks for he has an excellent opportunity to make all necessary investigations and surveys to reveal the actual conditions of the schools of this city. Regarding the textbooks used in our schools, Mr. Greenwood says: "There are geographies in use which were published in 1912. There are histories and arithmetics with pages and whole chapters torn out. There are thousands of other books, condemned years ago, which are in a condition of indescribable filth. "It would require at least $200,000 to bring the textbook situation up to normal, yet Congress allowed only $125,000 for the present fiscal year, of which at least $50,000 will have to be spent for supplies, leaving only $75,000 to care for increased enrollment, and to replace the very worst of the books in use." Mr. Greenwood says that the schools are poorly lighted and badly ventilated; that school property is in bad condition, very much in need of repairs; that schools are over-crowded, and school children are endangered because of fire hazards. These are grave charges but the conditions warranting them exist. While the conditions are terrible in the white schools, they are unspeakable, in many instances in the colored schools. Take Miner Normal, with a large library and the larger enrollment of the two normal schools of the District, but with less than an hundred dollars allotted for new books, replacement of books and subscriptions to the magazines for the library. The magazines alone would require that amount. The personnel of the colored school is in many instances a menace to the success and progress of the students, for whom the schools should exist. Many of the married teachers hinder the work of the schools. In some cases it is "a family affair." Women who permit their own children to be neglected for the lack of the mother's constant care and training, love humanity to such a great extent that they must deny their own children to instruct others. Society makes such great demands upon the entertaining capacity of the home that the wife and mother must get out and bring in her share, so as to keep up with the Joneses. Qualification and service are not considered by many of the teachers, "Above all of your getting, get the money," is the motto and inspiration of many of them. What place has a teacher in any school system that will call children "ugly," "black," or say to a child: "You are not responsible, you only have a stepmother"; or "You are dumb and never will amount to anything"? Such expressions and many others of the kind are frequently made in the colored schools of this city and the teachers remain in the "system." Our system of school government is at fault, having an appointive school board, dependent on Congress but in no way responsible to the people, who really pay the bills and furnish the children. The remedy is obvious. The schools should be put into the hands of the tax payers. Not until this is done can we hope for much improvement in our schools. We must demand of Congress the necessary legislation. There is too much favoritism, family affairs and color schemes mixed up in our present system to expect any immediate relief. COQLIDGE AND DAWES COMFORT KLAN Out in Oklahoma, the Klan is circulating that paragraph of President Coolidge's acceptance speech referring to "Immigration" and ending with this phrase: "If this government must not fail, America must be kept American." "America for Americans," is ostensibly the fundamental principle of the Klan; which is construed to mean the exclusion of the Negro, Catholic, Jew and foreign born. The question naturally arises: Was that phrase used by the President, as an open bid for the Klan vote? Since they are using it and giving wide publicity to it; and since the President has remained absolutely silent on his position toward the Klan, what is your conclusion? With clear cut denunciations of the Klan by Senator La Follette and by Mr. Davis, both presidential nominees, and President Coolidge remaining silent, it seems that "silence gives consent." This situation places the President in a predicament. Both of the other candidates have denounced the Klan. The Republican candidates for Governor in Maine, in Indiana, in Missouri and in Oklahoma are Klan candidates. Mr. Coolidge wants to carry Indiana. Senator Watson has arranged for that with the Klan. Now if the President denounces the Klan he will lose Indiana, possibly Maine and Missouri. If he does not denounce the Klan, he will possibly lose his own State of Massachusetts, also Ohio, New York and New Jersey. However, his silence is really comforting to the Klan. General Dawes, in his speech in Maine, really endorsed the Klan more than he denounced it. He did not take the trouble to state the facts as to either Oklahoma or Illinois. But, he did give the Klan an excellent endorsement when he said that the members of the Klan were "brave men" and that "if there could be an excuse for law-abiding citizens to band themselves together in secret organizations for law enforcement, it was in Oklahoma." Gen. Dawes was shamelessly cowardly when he praised the Klan as representing "only instinctive groping for leadership, moving in the interest of law enforcement." The Klan is praising the acceptance speech of the President and that of General Dawes in Maine. With the President's endorsement of the Klan by his silence and the open endorsement of General Dawes, it is readily seen why the Dyer Bill has failed in a Congress overwhelmingly Republican. Klan-endorsed and Klan-controlled Republicans would not pass it. Now they are out asking the Negro to vote the Republican ticket for what Lincoln did for the race. They cannot ask for the support of the colored voter on the record of the present administration and the colored voter is not dealing in ancient history this year. He wants relief for himself and his family in the present and near future. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. G. Williams, 1709 Second Street, Northwest, spent a week in Atlantic City, they motored with Mrs. J. B.

THE WASHINGTON TRADING SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 1924 Something of Interest ```markdown ``` There is a great and rapidly increasing departure from the public religious faith. This can be verified by those who have had an opportunity of becoming acquainted with the mental condition of the intelligent classes of America. While among the more frank this divergence is not concealed, there is a far more extensive and far more dangerous secession, private and unacknowledged. We can neither treat with contempt nor with punishment so widespread and so powerful a secession. Neither derision, vituperation, nor force will extinguish it. A more strenuous and discouraging situation has never confronted Christian workers than that created by the religious crisis through which they are now passing. It is an incentive for an ecclesiastical and political revolution. (I. L. Parker) It must have occurred even to the most casual observer that ecclesiasticism is almost naught as an influence in the moral and civic life of America—that institutionalized religion is siding with despotism. Among the toiling masses there is a growing hostility to the clergy and all institutions which they control. For the clergy represent privilege and are not with the working classes. They cast a shadow across the workman's pathway which leads to intolerance, loss of liberty, and persecution; and throw the cause of the people to the wolves. The Church no longer appeals to the working people. She has joined hands with capital—with the master against his workmen, Her spires dine with the rich and preach at the poor. The masses can not believe that the Church is entirely disinterested in her zeal to preserve the present order of things. They point to the wealth pouring into her coffers and those of her allied institutions, and say, "Capitalism—the one who pays the fiddler—is calling the tunes." Moreover, the source of much of this wealth is under suspicion and thereby the Church fails to impress the masses with its richness of organization and sumptuous adornment. This suspicious attitude of the submerged classes does not come as a result of a day's happenings, but is formed by the handicrafts of many ages. The strict embargo placed around the Tree of Knowledge, the exhortation to the peasantry to a "pure, humble and charitable mind, and perfect resignation to divine will," are exemplifications of the grudgeful and distrustful attitude of the Church toward the common people. She has always striven tion. She dares not risk elevating by an indiscriminating education, the minds of the common people above their condition. She minds of the common people above their condition. She rather teaches them that God has ordained that they shall not enjoy the privileges of the rich, and that He has made it possible for them to be happy with the fewer and simpler things which He has allowed them. No wonder gnostics boldly denounce the Church's gods as malicious powers seeking to thwart man's upward strivings, and worship the Serpent as the Prometheus of the world. A new consciousness of power is growing in the breasts of the wage earners. They are witnessing the passing of the Church. They detect, in her going, an unmistakable languor—the dullness of her old enthusiasms. Though she is still accomplishing good, the fire of youth is rapidly dying. She is in the evening of her existence. The mellowness of yesteryears is now a mellowness of decay. Her existence depends on charity. It is her alpha and omega. She begs the lowly to accept with gratefulness the benevolent fondalism of the rich, "that they may increase and multiply their mercies upon us." One can not accept alms and still have independence of character. Almsgiving is liberty's greatest foe. Wage earners consider the Church a confederate subjecting them to despots. They see her attempting to serve God and Mammon, but giving preference to the source of her benevolences. They see her substituting religiousness for righteousness and losing the power to know good and evil. They see in all her endeavors the master note—submissiveness, the continued education in servility and dependence. "Good things come to him who waits"—a chant which she has harped so long that it has gotten into the blood of the lowly. It is a spiritual cocaine which she has sprinkled copiously on assembled congregations each Lord's Day morning, numbing the pain of the deep-lying social cancer by slowly killing the nerves of feeling. But the working classes have awakened to the fact that the Church is a class of make-believers. And as a result the toiling masses have entered a realm of non-belief. They are determined now to know. They hold reverence for the fact far more holy than reverence for the past. The clergy may thunder their anathemas and deal damnation to all, but this new determination to know can not be exorcised with holy water. We do not believe that this antagonism of the common people to the Church is likewise an antagonism to the Man who went around doing good. They look upon Him as a downright good fellow. His doctrine, "love thy neighbor as thyself," makes a much stronger appeal to them now than ever before. It is our intention here to call attention to the fact that the masses do not believe that the Church, as an organized body, is in sympathy with them—that they regard the Church as a club par excellence where the rich dine and are entertained, and where the clergy sup and are muzzled by their masters. We desire further to call attention to the fact that the Church has not recognized the significance in this loyalty of the common people toward her sovereign Lord. She looks upon this antagonism to her as a grievous outrage of the Holy Ghost—a danger to civilized society. Here is a doleful case—confused and confounded. In an age of triumphant industrialism, she is temperamentally unable to grasp thoughts and things industrial. She must recognize the social question of to-day, make industrialism and religion go hand in hand. The one can not survive well without the other, nor vice versa. In the place of distrust, and crimination, there must be confidence.

THEATRICAL NEWS THEATRICAL NEWS BLANCHE SWEET SCALES HEIGHTS IN ROLE OF TESS Blanche Sweet bids fair to win for herself the title of the screen's outstanding interpreter of emotional roles. It is not so many months since her "Anna Christie" was being hailed on all sides as one of the particularly bright spots in a year notable for illustrious pictures and performances. Miss Sweet since undertook to transfer "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" from the pages of Thomas Hardy's classic novel to the screen, under the direction of her husband, Marshall Neilan, who made the picture for Metro-Goldwyn. This production will be the next attraction at the Lincoln Theatre, playing for three days, beginning Sunday, August 31. "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" is a Louis B. Mayer presentation. It was adapted by Dorothy Farnum, and includes in the supporting cast such players as Conrad Nagel, Stuart Holmes, George Fawcett, Courtenay Foote, Victory Bateman, and Joseph Dowling.

My dear Dorsey: When I returned from Buffalo last night, I saw your letter, and, believe me, I was delightfully shocked, and I may add, that I felt a pang of regret to realize how long those eight or nine days of being away might hurt my chance for Washington. I immediately answered Breeskin last night (which was Thursday) and hope he will consider me for one of the engagements. . . You are a prince R. D.!

This is not exactly Biblical but it expressed my innermost thoughts. I thank you The above communication was written to R. D. Carlton Dorsey, violin again and again. Sincerely Lohmann, teacher of this city from Arnold Lohmann, teacher of violin and soloist of note, is an unusual tribute of courtesy and musicianly fellowship rarely ever manifested between musicians of the white and colored races. We congratulate the writer of this letter for his breadth of vision and genuine expression of brotherhood man to man, musician to musician, regardless of race or creed. We congratulate also the recipient of this letter, Mr. Dorsey, in claiming the valued acquaintance and friendship of such a worthy colleague in the world of music. This letter breathes the very spirit of the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God o'er all mankind and were this self-same brotherly spirit more sincerely manifested and exhibited among men of all races how soon would the world rid herself of inhumanity. Both races need much more of this kindly appreciation and friendly civic intercourse among them and there would be less need for civic goodwill, organizations, and clandestine orders of various kinds. Mr. Lohmann's violin ability has been endorsed by the New England Conservatory of Music, Columbia University, Musical Courier, F. J. Daniel, F.A.G.O. of St. Peter's Cathedral and others. He is an American violinist but received his musical education in Europe under Anton Witek and Visanski of Berlin. Beginning the first week of September, a series of music articles to be contributed by a prominent local musician will commence. Serious-minded students and music lovers would do well to get this series when started and follow them. Because the amount of information contained in these articles will be helpful to say the least of them. C.

Age Grade $ \mathbf{T}^{1} $ $ \mathbf{R}^{1} $ $ \mathbf{O}^{3} $ $ \mathbf{U}^{1} $ $ \mathbf{D}^{1} $ Explanation: Take the five letters in the squares and use each letter the number of times indicated by the small figures accompanying it. When these letters are properly arranged you will have a word whose definition is in the open air. The word "Meharry" has many words hidden in it. See if you can write a word for each meaning that is indicated by the definitions here given. Use only the letterts in the word "Meharry." The hidden words contain three or more letters each. Example: A Spring month: May. Definitions—1. A Spring month. 2. A girl's name. 3. A streak of light. 4. To injure. 5. A boy's name. 6. Noisily gay. 7. To edge a garment. 8. A large root like the potato which grows in tropical countries. 9. Twelve months. 10. The thigh of a hog. EXPLANATION — A hom-o-nym (or spelled hom-o-nyme; pronounced either hom-o-nym or ho-mo-nymn) is a word having the same sound as another, but different from it in meaning, such as: meet and meat; seam and seem, etc. 1. The bird ***** around the chimney of the factory. A draft drew him into the *****. 2. As **** Quaker went into the house, he said, "May God have mercy upon ****." 4.

The page looks fine but I have several suggestions regarding its improvement. I know you always welcome suggestions and criticisms. In orde rto arouse more interest, why not try this plan? When it happens that a Tribunite has been "Honor Child" for three 'consecutive' weeks, why not give him a star, such as those which were formerly given to "Honor Children"? Seldom does one Tribunite hold the honor title for three consecutive weeks; hence when this does happen, don't you think that he deserves a star as a special tribute? I shall expect to hear your opinion, of my suggestion and drawings, soon. RUFUS P. TURNER. Fill the buddy blank My Dear Editor: I am well and hope you are the same.

NEW PUZZLES Meharry Homonyms A Very Good Plan A Pleasant Vacation THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 1924 PAGE FOR YOUR BOOK SHELF Dear Editor: I have been reading the "Children's Page" every week and enjoy it. The poem that I'm sending in is entitled "What Makes a Nation?" As I have never sent in anything before I wish to get acquainted. Trees Worth Knowing, (Doubleday) From "The Little Nature Library." 4 Vols. $7.50. Here is a book on trees that is a regular encyclopedia. Yet it is writen in a style that can be read and enjoyed like a story book. There are always questions on trees that arise among nature lovers. You can get the clarifying facts about them from this remarkable volume. What makes a nation? Bounding lines that lead from shore to shore. That trace its girth on silent hills or on the prairie floor. That holds the rivers and the lakes and all the fields between— Julia Ellen Rogers knows trees and knows how to tell you what you want to know about them. This author has that rare combination of being able to prepare a book on trees which can be used as a manual for the student and a reference book for the expert. Note the unusual style this author has in dealing with this nature subject. Off the "Tulin Tree" she says. The lines that stand about the land or barrier unseen? Or is it guns that hold the coast, or ships that sweep the seas; The chants of peace, or battle hymn, or diree, or victors' song. "The tulip tree is a cousin rather than a sister to the foregoing magnolias. It stands alone in its genius in America, but has a sister species that grows in the Chinese interior. A tall, stately forest tree, it reaches two hundred feet in height, and a trunk diameter of ten feet, in the lower Ohio Valley. This species still holds its own as a valuable lumber tree on mountain slopes of North Carolina, and Tennessee. Smaller, but still stately and beautiful, it is found from Vermont to Florida and west to Illinois, Arkansas, and Mississippi." Or parchment, creed, or storied deed that makes a motion strong? Which sets the goal for every soul, that hears his country's call? This makes a nation great and strong, and certain to endure. This subtle inner voice that thrills a man and makes him sure; Which makes him know there is no North or South or East or West. But that his land must ever stand the bravest and the best. Only a visitor to California can thoroughly realize the majesty attained by some of our native trees, but we don't have to travel to find beauty. It is right outside. Let Julia Ellen Rogers show you one of its many manifestations. I hope you will like this selected poem well enough to place it on our page. This book gives you the intimate details of such trees as: ELISE FLETCHER (?) The Nut Trees; Water-Loving Trees; Wild Relatives of our Orchard Trees; Pod-bearing Trees; Deciduous Trees with Winged Seeds; Cone bearing Evergreens; Palms. The Flea Dear Editor: Here's a bit of fun for our page. Two little fleas together sat And one to the other said, "I have no place to hang my hat Since my old dog is dead. I've traveled 'round from place to place And further will I roam But the first old dog that shows his face Will be my home sweet home:" Everybody should know the names of the ordinary trees, but how many can you name and be sure of? Of course, you know the maples, the white birch by its bark, the poplar by its color. But can you tell how to recognized a cherry tree by the prussic acid taste of a twig, or an ash by its bud, or a sycamore by its shedding bark? Will be my home sweet home. GEORGE N. PARKER (14) Do you know how a tree eats? How it drinks? How nourishment is carried to the highest tip, to the smallest leaf? OBSERVE THIS Write all communications plainly; write on one side of paper; give name, age, address, school, and school class. Please write your age after your name in "every letter." This book answers thousands of questions that every Nature lover is bound to ask. It is beautifully compiled and appealing both in appearance and content. Poison Pure thoughts and words are honey that is made in the hive of the heart. Impure words remind us of the labels that the druggists put on some of their bottles. You see this word in large letters: "POISON!" Dear me! I hope you will never need that label on you!

Attorney Jones Withdraws His Name from Race Attorney Jones Withdraws His Name from Race With the withdrawal of the name of Attorney Thomas L. Jones from consideration for appointment as a judge of the police court of the District of Columbia, new impetus was put into the effort to have James J. O'Leary, an assistant United States Attorney, appointed by the President to succeed Judge John J. McMahon, whose term expires next month. Preferred There are several candidates for the position, including former Judge James L. Pugh and United States Commissioner Isaac R. Hitt. Judge McMahon himself is a candidate for reappointment. But Mr. O'Leary is preferred by the members of the local bar generally and it is at their insistence that he has permitted his name to be presented to the Attorney General. A large number of influential persons have written letters to Attoreny General Stone recommending the appointment of Mr. O'Leary. The most prominent members of the bar association have likewise done so. The District Commissioners have refused to commit themselves, but it is understood that they are friendly toward his appointment. Several of the leading colored lawyers have joined in the movement to have him named. While Mr. Jones was a candidate, there was some reluctance; but since his withdrawal, there is almost unanimity among the colored members of the bar in support of Mr. O'Leary. Qualified Mr. O'Leary is well qualified for the judgeship. He is a young, progressive lawyer and has gained invaluable experience in the office of the United States District Attorney. Besides ability and character, he has the judicial temperament which would make him an able judge. He has won the respect of the colored members of the bar by his impartial enforcement of the law without regard to race. Dr. and Mrs. Creed W.
