ANOTHER SUIT IN BLOOMINGDALE

Republi
ANOTHER
DEPARTMENTAL SEGREGATION MUST GO NOW
The colored electorate, with but slight defection, having supported the Republican party in the election last week notwithstanding the importunities of the Democratic party and the La Follette forces, will insist upon relief from the ills from which the Negro suffers, as well as recognition by appointment to responsible offices, as the price of his continued allegiance.
Civil Service Reforms
Foremost in this program will be the question of civil service reforms. A detremined fight will be waged for the substitution of the finger-print method of identification for the photographic.
The finger print system has already been adopted by the Army and Navy. Its latest use by the Government is in the payment of the bonus to soldiers and sailors of the world war. It is also used by the Post Office Department as a means of identifying deposition in the postal savings system. It has been adopted by practically every police department in the world as a more certain means of identification than the photograph, and it will be pointed out to Government officials that there is no reason why it should not be adopted by the Civil Service Commission.
The requirement of a photograph to accompany an application to take a civil service examination is regarded as an effective means of discerning colored persons and consequently discriminating against them in the certification of eligibles for appointment.
An effort will also be made to have the civil service rules amended. At present, after an applicant passes an examination he or she is certified to an executive department for appointment three times, and if not selected, no further certification is made. In the case of colored applicants this works a hardship. Appointment clerks will not select a colored person unless there is a vacancy in a division composed entirely of colored persons. But few colored persons, therefore, are ever appointed to clerkships.
Persons interested would have the rules so amended that in all cases selections shall be made with sole reference to merit and fitness and without regard to race, color or creed. Any violation of this provision by any officer concerned in making selections or appointments would be cause for the immediate removal of such officer from the Government service.
Some favor making the civil service laws more rigid. They would make ti incumbent upon the appointing officer to select the person highest on the list and do away with the certification of the three highest eligibles. They would also lodge the power to appoint in the Civil Service Commission.
Segregation
Every vestige of segregation must go or the party responsible for its continuance will be held to a strict accountability. That is one of the determinations of the colored electorate as a result of the last campaign. In the fight against segregation, the Treasury Department will most likely the center of attack; for seg- (Continued on page 3)

Freeman Admits Shooting Man on Back of Car
Claims Self Defense; Says Officer Was First to Fire
Chief Justice McCoy, Wednesday, directed a verdict of not guilty in the case of John A. Gross, who was one of the three defendants on trial on a charge of first degree murder in connection with the killing of Policeman Raymond C. Leisinger. Gross was immediately discharged.
As soon as the Government rested, counsel on behalf of Gross made a motion for a directed verdict. He pointed out to the court that there was not sufficient evidence against Gross to warrant the jury to pass upon his guilt or innocence. He contended that Gross was simply at the scene, but in no wise aided or abetted in the commission of the alleged crime.
Government counsel agreed, and the Chief Justice granted the motion for a verdict of not guilty.
Similar motions were made by counsel on behalf of James T. Holmes and Harry W. Freeman. They were denied.
Freeman Testines
Attorney John H. Wilson made an impressive opening statement on behalf of the defendant Freeman. He told the jury that he would prove that Freeman shot in self defense.
Freeman took the stand in his own behalf. In a wavering voice he told the jury of the events that led to the killing of the police officer. He gave his age as 21 years and said that he had lived at 1618 Vermont Avenue, Northwest, since birth.
He testified that he met Holmes, Gross and Helen Catherine Jackson before day on August 28 at the corner of Seventh and S Streets, Northwest. He tried to purchase some whiskey from them, he said, but failed. They then drove off. They stopped on P Street near North Capitol, and he and Holmes went into an alley and bought a pint of whiskey. After returning to the car the men drank, and they drove off.
As they were driving along North Capitol, he testified he saw an object but could not tell who or what it was and felt the car sink on the right hand side. He looked out the back, he said, and saw the form of a man clinging to the car. A shot rang out which deafened him, he said. Holmes asked what that was and he replied that somebody on the back was shooting. Holmes handed him a gun, he said, and told him, "take this and don't let him kill us." He stood and trembled. The man on the back fired twice in rapid succession, another shot rang out, and just as they turned into I Street, another was fired, and he then returned the fire.
Freeman told the jury that the only reason he shot was because he was afraid of being shot.
He said he gave himself up to Detective Jackson. After his arrest he was carried to detective headquarters where he made a written statement and also a verbal statement, in which

SUE ON COVENANT THAT RUNS WITH THE LAND
Whites Accuse Fox Company with Using Stenographer as Straw
Another suit to prohibit the sale of property in the Bloomingdale section to colored persons has been instituted in the equity division of the District Supreme Court.
Henry K. and Mary F. Murphy, husband and wife, who live at 42 Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest, seek to enjoin Miss Marietta V. Scarborough, Edmund K. Fox and William M. Hicks from transferring the property known as No. 1921 First Street, Northwest, to any Colored person.
Straw Woman
In their bill, the plaintiffs say they are advised and believed that Fox and Hicks, both of whom are engaged in the real estate business, have negotiated the sale of this property to a colored person, whose identity is unknown to the plaintiffs.
Miss Scarborough, it is said, is a stenographer in the office of Fox Real Estate. They allege that she is acting solely in the capacity of a straw woman for Fox and Hicks.
According to the petition, in October last, the heirs of Mary A. Stack, deceased, conveyed this property to Miss Scarborough. The plaintiffs aver that title to this property was taken by her for the accommodation and convenience of Fox and Hicks.
Covenant
The plaintiffs allege that ever since the platting and survey of the subdivision in which this property is situated, there has appeared, without interruption, a covenant in every deed of conveyance. It is as follows: "Subject to the covenant running with the land that said lot or any improvements that may be erected thereon shall never be used or occupied for any purpose by Negroes or presons of the Negro race, or having Negro blood." Murphy and his wife claim that the deed from the heirs of Mary A. Stack to Miss Scarborough contains this covenant.
Irreparable Damage
They alleged that it is the purpose of Miss Scarborough immediately to convey a fee simple title to the property to a colored person for occupancy as a home. Unless restrained, they say, such a transfer will cause irreparable damage, loss and injury to them and other residence owners in the vicinity.
They claim that the value of property in the neighborhood will materially decrease by reason of occupancy of this property by a colored person and that the environment and surroundings of said area will become low and said area will not be a fit and proper place wherein white people may live.
The suit is filed through Attorney Henry Gilligan. He presided at the meeting of the citizens of the Bloomingdale section at the St. Martin Parish Hall sometime ago. It appears that he is the chief instigator of suits to prohibit colored persons from living in the Bloomingdale section.
SEGREGATES SOLDIERS'
NAMES ON TABLETS
Discrimination in a new form broke out at the office of the Register of the Treasury on Armistice Day.
A tablet bearing the names of all former employees of that office who paid the supreme sacrifice in the World War was to be unveiled and dedicated. It turned out that two tablets had been procured—one bearing the names of the white boys and the other of colored boys who had died in the service of their country.
The colored employees vigorously protested to Harley V. Spellman, the Register of the Treasury, against the unveiling of the separate tablets. They told him that no color line had been drawn upon the battlefields of France. At first, he was obstinate. Then, he yielded to a compromise to the effect that he would go ahead and have one tablet made containing all five names but the colored employees would have to pay for it. The estimated cost is about $125.
SUBMIT DEMANDS TO G.O.P.LEADERS FOR ACTION

MONSTER CROWD EXPECTED HERE FOR BIG GAME
MONSTER CROWD EXPECTED HERE FOR BIG GAME
The annual Thanksgiving game between Lincoln University of Pennsylvania, and Howard University of Washington, has come to be known as "The Football Classic of the Year" among colored colleges. The occasion draws alumni and friends of the two institutions from all over the country. Past attendance, together with present demand for tickets, affords a conservative estimate of twenty-five thousand spectators who will attend the game on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 27th, at the American Legaue Park in this city.
Though Lincoln and Howard are bitter football rivals, the finest kind of spirit prevails between the two institutions and among the visiting throng. Thus, the social features in connection with the game are the greatest of the year. The two universities combine in the promotion of a Grand Reunion Reception, the proceeds from which are divided between the two schools as a contribution to their athletic funds. This year, the reception will be held on the evenings of Wednesday, November 26th and Thursday, November 27th, in the beautiful New Dining Hall on the Howard University Campus. The center of social activity during the Lincoln-Howard game will be the Dining Hall and Campus of the University.
Arrangements have been completed for the Homecoming of the General Alumni of Howard University, reduced railroad rates having been granted to members of the Association throughout the United States. The Homecoming program will consist of a "Pep Test" on Wednesday evening; a business session of the Association on Thursday morning; the award of the "H" to all members of Varsity teams prior to and including 1915, followed by the Lincoln-Howard game; a meeting of the Executive Committee Friday morning, and the final session Friday afternoon. The University Campus is to be illuminated during the Homecoming sessions with a huge electric sign containing the word "Welcome." Arrangements for the reunion are in charge of a Reception Committee appointed by the General Alumni Association, acting in co-operation with the Howard University Board of Athletic Control and representatives of Lincoln University.
Bob Church Ignores White Leader
Memphis, Tenn., Nov. 10—Robert R. Church, stormy petrel of Tennessee Republican politics, struck back at Hal H. Clements, state chairman who has been a leader in the "lily white" fight to oust him from membership on the state committee.
On the eve of the election, Mr. Church snubbed his state chairman at a Republican rally. He ignored him as completely as if he were not present.
Mr. Church was presiding. Clements attended the meeting and tried to say a word to the so-called "black and tan" faction. Church refused to recognize him, ignored his request for a few minutes in which to make a speech and abruptly adjourned the meeting at the conclusion of Roscoe Conkling Simmons's speech. Clements only bit his lip to stay the words he was not permitted to speak.
The snubbing of no less a personage than the state chairman himself was Church's little stap-back at Clements for the latter's aid in the "lily-white" attempt to kick him off the state committee.

For more than a half century the present building of Lincoln Congregational Temple has stood. Two generations have passed in and out of this building having left upon them the impress of those early consecrated workers.
Shall we allow the accomplishments of the past to suffice for the needs of the present? Shall we satisfy ourselves by worshipping at the shrine of tradition, or shall we justify our existence by forging ahead to greater heights?

On Wednesday evening, November 12th, the beautiful and spacious home of Mr. and Mrs. C. Cornelius Webb, 1773 U Street, Northwest, was the scene of an elaborate reception as a celebration of their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. The guests were ushered into the beautifully decorated parlor amid tall palms and late fall flowers, where they were presented to those of the receiving line, namely: Mr. and Mrs. C. Cornelius Webb, Miss Cornelia Webb, Messrs. William and Alfred Webb, Mrs. J. H. Webb, Tinney and Mrs. McShaw Jones.
Mrs. Cornelius Webb was beautifully gowned in a brocaded silver garment and silver slippers to correspond. She carried a beautiful shower boquet of pale pink roses. Her charming daughter, Miss Cornelia Webb, wore an attractive orchid georgette with ostrich trimmings and gold slippers and a head-band to correspond. Mrs. Thomas Crisp of Philadelphia, sister of Mrs. Webb, wore a beautiful beaded coral georgette gown, while Mrs. J. H. Webb, mother of Mr. Webb, wore a charming gown of soft gray crepe de chine; Mrs. Willima Tinney, a handsome black lace gown and Mrs. McShaw a beautiful orchid georgette gown.

Women's Dinner at Howard Is Big Success
Over three hundred women students, faculty and alumnae gathered in the dining hall of Howard University on Friday evening, November 7, for the third annual Howard women's dinner. The custom of having the annual women's dinner was inaugurated three years ago by Dean Lucy D. Slowe and this has come to be the most important woman's function on the campus. Women students, two hundred and fifty strong, led by the marshal, marched into the Dining Hall singing their college songs and giving lusty cheers for "good old Howard." The women, faculty and alumnae at places of honor in the Dining Hall, applauded the marching students to the echo as they entered.
The program committee arranged a most unique series of stunts by the various classes. The prize stunt was the sophomore orchestra, under the direction of Ellen Hill. Miss Hill's baton, a brand new broom with a big red bow, waved gracefully over her players whose instruments of combs, tin pans and bicycle pumps made music, "loud and clear."
Baltimore, Washington and Plainfield, and New Jersey, were represented in the list of graduates. Everybody voted this dinner the best of all.
Anita Turpeau, chairman of the committee of arrangements; Ophelia Settle, and Xenia Sedgwick, cheer leader, together with the girls who worked with them, deserve great credit for the success of the affair.
DR. SCOTT SPEAKS IN NEW YORK
New York City—Dr. Emmett J. Scott, in an address here Sunday November 9th at the opening "Big Meeting" of the 135th Street Branch Y. M. C. A., urged Negro citizens to higher ideal of civic duty.
Pioneer Judge Dies in Denver
Casper, Wyo.—The recent death of Judge Thomas C. Williams, colored attorney who served here as justice of th peace in 1888 to 1899, and who is believed to be the first colored man to have held an elective office in Wyoming, has revived memories of the early pioneer days among many of the old timers. Judge Williams was in his 77th year at the time of his death.
Judge Williams went to Denver on the eve of the Civil War. At this time Denver was nothing but a crude huddle of log shacks. He later left Denver and went to Wyoming where he remained until about 25 years when he returned to Denver to spend his last days. He was an ex-barber and educated himself.
"In the fall of 1888, Judge Williams was nominated for justice of the peace on the Republican ticket, and was elected. He had the distinction of being the first colored man ever elected to any office in Wyoming. His nominating was considered something of a joke by many people, but during the two years he served, several important cases came before him and all parties agreed that he conducted his court with dignity and wisdom.
Asks Court for Estate of Husband
Through her attorney, Mrs. Rosetta Hawkins, alias Rosetta Kager, has filed a motion to dismiss the suit of Mrs. Hattie Kager for recovery of property of the late James Kager, husband of the latter.
In her motion to dismiss, Mrs. Hawfiled a motion to dismiss, Mrs. Hawkins contends that Mrs. Hattie Kager as the administratrix of the estate of James Kager is not entitled to institute the proceedings. She also holds that the matters alleged in the bill of complaint do not entitle the parties to any equitable relief. She says that Sarah M. Kager, Mary L. Kager and James Kager, Jr., who are joined as plaintiffs, have no title or interest in the subject matter and are unnecessary and improper parties.
The bill of complaint sets out that James Kager died on September 17, 1924, possessed of certain real estate, the legal title to which is in the name of James Kager and Rosetta Kager, his wife, as joint tenants. Mrs. Hattie Kager alleges that she is the lawful wife of the deceased, al-
though they had been separated for several years on account of marital difficulties. She denies that Rosetta Hawkins is or ever was his wife. She alleges that at the time of the relationship began between her husband and the other woman, Rosetta Hawkins had a husband who has since died. She says she is entitled to be decreed the real estate as the surviving joint tenant. She is represented by Attorney Perri W. Frisby.
Freeman Admits Shooting Man on Car
(Continued from page one.) he accused Gross of firing the fatal shot, he frankly stated. The reason he made these statements he said was because he was afraid of being beaten. He related in substance the statements he had made, but denied that at any time he recognized the identity of the person on the back of the car. He also stated that no one in the car on that night used the word, "police-man." The Government waived cross examination of him.
Holmes Mute
Earlier in the case Chief Justice McCoy had ruled that the Nash Touring car, through the back of which the fatal shots were fired, was inadmissible as evidence against Holmes. He held that it might be used against Freeman and Gross. He based this ruling upon the contention that there had been an illegal search and seizure of this automobile by the officers. The testimony showed that they had commanded the lessor of the premises in which the car was stored to open the doors and had seized the car without a search warrant. At the time no warrant had been issued for the arrect of Holmes. Inasmuch as no constitutional right of Freeman and Gross had been violated, the Chief Justice ruled, they could not complain and it might be used in evidence against them.
Testimony regarding a .45 caliber Colt revolver found in the loft of the building in which the car was found was ordered stricken from the record. It might belong to anyone, the court ruled.

Departmental Segregation Must Go Now
(Continued from page 1)
regation in several of its bureaus has been most pronounced. This is particularly true of the office of the Register of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Bureau. In the former beaver board walls were maintained until recently. In the latter there have been two specific cases of discrimination on account of color brought to public view. An investigation of the executive departments and bureaus listed below shows that segregation prevails in them as follows: Office of the Register of the Treasury, there are two segregated sections—one with 30 employees and the other with 14. Navy Department—one segregated section of 18 colored employees, as well as a segregated lunch room.
There is segregation in other departments, but no investigation was made. The colored electorate expects the Coolidge administration to give the race relief from segregation and discrimination. Its vote in the Presidential election was a vote of confidence that he would do so.

Howard in Score less Tie Again
The Howard Bisons battled to their third scoreless tie of the year Saturday. This time the Va. Normal and Industrial School eleven was the opponent.
The Bison resorted to the overhead game in an effort to defeat the Virginians but only 6 out of 17 passes were completed and they came near mid-field.
The game was well-officiated and clean and hard-fought throughout. Captain Dokes and Smith, tackles and Long and Campbell, ends, Howard regulars were out of the game nursing injuries.

Tuskegee Nears Southeast Title
(By F. A. Walker)
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 8—A monster crowd, estimated at 3,000 spectators, saw the Crimson Hurricane go down in defeat before the Tuskegee Tiger in one of the hardest fought battles ever played on Atlanta Collegiate gridirons. With the Tiger having disposed of its most serious opposition, Tuskegee looms up as 1924 Champions of the Southeast. Although defeated, the Crimson Hurricane demonstrated its superiority over the Tigers in the running game, making 14 first downs for a yardage of 267, while Tuskegee annexed 4 first down for a total of 63 yards from scrimmage. Tuskegee gained in all of their exchanges of punts, Stevenson averaging 45 yards on each of his boots.
HAMPTON AND SHAW IN
CORELESS TIE
Hampton, Va., November 8-As the long shadows of encoaching darkness came creeping across Armstrong Field this afternoon the Shaw "Bears" and the Hampton "Seasiders" stood face to face at the end of a scoreless game of football waged through four quarters of some of the most dogged and oftimes brilliant football that has ever been played on Armstrong Field. The final count was'0 to 0. Hampton early in the first quarter had an excellent chance to score a touchdown, but after three attempts to advance through the line a forward pass failed.
Several good chances came to both teams, especially to Hampton to snatch victory out of the jaws of defeat. Numerous opportunities for field goals came, but none were accurate in the face of the strong wind and strong opposition.
The teamwork of both teams practically overshadowed any individual play, but the work of Gann, Dunlap, Jones, and Lee for Hampton was outstanding for that team. Mitchell was the star for Shaw's team.
BEN TAYLOR IS AGENT FOR
COAT COMPANY
Ben Taylor, former manager of the Washington Potomac, has accepted the city agency for the Comer "All Weather" Coat Company. Taylor reports that he is doing a rushing business with his coats which are guaranteed to stand up under any weather condition.

Lincoln Crushes St. Paul Warriors
(BY H. SCOTT)
Baltimore, Md., Nov. 8—In a rather slow and listless affair the Lincoln Lions scored an easy victory over the St. Paul Tigers at Maryland Park here today, 33 to 0. The Tigers started off with two first downs in rapid succession but failed to "carry on." In short order the Lincoln linemen were on to the powerful shift used by the Virginians and their ground-gaining via. this route was ended.
Lincoln's first touchdown came when Crudop blocked and recovered a St. Paul kick behind the goal. The Lincoln captain followed this up with two beautiful field goals.
Goodman added two touchdowns after an intercepted pass by Morgan and a St. Paul fumble put the ball in easy scoring distance. Taylor intercepted a pass and dashed 40 yards for the final score.
The work of Crudop, Brown, and Byrd was slightly the more brilliant for Lincoln but Coach Young used his entire second stringers the last quarter. St. Paul undoubtedly played far below form. Walker, the Tigers' best back was suffering from an injury and was of no value to the team.
The attendance was only fair. Practically all of the spectators were from outside of Baltimore, not a hundred Baltimore folks were on hand.

Union Panthers Out score Seminary
(By Chester I. Washington)
Richmond, Va., Nov. 12—The Praying Parsons from the Seminary at Lynchburg ventured into the lair of the Union Panther and were vanquished 20-11 in an unusually thrilling and daring encounter before a good crowd at spacious Mayo Island Stadium last Saturday.
Long runs by Boffman and Shields put the ball a short distance from the goal and Jackson carried it over and added the extra point for the Panthers' first score. Passes to Gross, Shields and Corrothers with the latter on the receiving end of the final, accounted for another score. Lanier went over for Seminary's initial score while a 30-yard field goal by Whedbee added three more points. Shields crossed the line again for Union in the last quarter for another touchdown. Seminary ran its total up 2 more points by downing Boffman behind the Union's goal for a line safety.
ARMSTRONG SCORES AT WILL
AGAINST MANASAS.
AGAINST MANASSAS
The Armstrong Football Team took the measure of the Manassas Team Monday by the score of 31-6 at the American League Baseball Park. Manassas's lone score was made by the interception of a pass. Manassas was not able to score a single first down, while Armstrong made 16. The outstanding stars of the game were Dorsey, McCoy and Captain Allen, who made a touchdown from the 50-yard line.
BEAR PREPS ARE CLASSY
The Teddy Bear Preps are out this season to claim the championship. They have been in the winning column in the two games they have played so far, having defeated the Buffaloes 6 to 0 and the Apex A. C. of Alexandria, 7 to 0.

Philadelphia—Tiger Flowers of Atlanta, Ga., middleweight, knocked out two men in less than four rounds at the Arena here tonight.
* Jerry Hays, a local colored fighter, lasted less than two rounds and Hughy Clements, white, from Gloucester hit the canvas in the first 30 seconds of the second round.
Flowers weighed 167, Hays 160, while Clements tipped the scales at 185. Tiger had been previously scheduled to meet Jackie Clarke but after an injury received in training had forced the latter to cancel the engagement, Flowers requested that two scrappers be brought on.
MORRIS-BROWN STILLL UNABLE TO BE MOREHOUSE
TO BEAT MOREHOUSE
Morris Brown failed to break down the tradition that exist between her and Morehouse College losing 6 to 0. During the many years that these schools have been playing football together, Morehouse has never lost to Morris Brown.
The lone tally of the game came in the third period of the game. The Morehouse backs gave the spectators a few minutes of spectacular football when they carried the ball from their 25-yard line to Morris Brown's 1-foot line in three minutes.
In the first half of the game Morris Brown's offense was slightly better than that of Morehouse. Yet she was unable to get within 10 yards of Morehouse's goal. Edwards's kicking was not up to form. The Morehouse forward rushed him too much. Cotton was star for Morris Brown. Lockhart was good throughout the game. Archer's 65-yard dash was the longest run of the game. The Morehouse line showed up good when they battered the heavier and more experienced line of Morris Brown to a stand still. Capt., "Key" West played an unusually good game. He was ably assisted by Greegs, center, Sherman and Cook.
DUNBAR 70; BALTIMORE HIGH 0

SUB BACK WINS GAME FOR PRAIRIE VIEW
(By H. J. Mason)
MADE A FARCE OF THE LINCOLN-Stevens, the writer has waited until after the subject of officials. But after hearing the force-Howard game and noting the John-St. Paul encounter, we can not object at this period.
The latter game was all with the referent that Dr. Allen had refereed in the game he was out of place in this job. He noticed had he been serving in one of his jobs was to blow his whistle at the 88-yard run. A referee must know it unfortunately Dr. Allen did not. There is a shortage of referees. The referee for every penalty called in a game is not anxious for the referee's job. In for a C. I. A. A. game should be called judge or linesman. Of course, a minor job but he certainly should showing than Dr. Allen did last Saturday. It take most of the blame for the slow one end under two and one-half hour signals and questioning of decisions, then would certainly put more speed and LINCOLN TURN BACK SHAW'S ELITE is face their final threat of defeat prior to Harold Martin's Shaw eleven to coach Young can muster to turn back. Crudop is about all the edge we normal today with the danger of havingary gave Union much trouble with a negotiation's running attack might decide Panthers. St. Paul gets a breath of Va.

His phenomenal performance "elassie" with Lincoln that year on the Howard eleven that defeat is disciplined by the university author of which we need not discuss. HeDuring the Thanksgiving Day game, with the forged signature of Dr. L from football had been lifted.

He was a period in the game did not counting to C. I. A. A. rules. did not represent the Blue and White that Lincoln's request that his name be adhered to. Carter has been out with this season has been under discussion. It has been learned that his case. Why so much time has been spent. There is no question but that acco be playing on the Howard eleven.
DR. ALLEN MADE A FARCE OF THE LINCOLN-ST. PAUL GAME
In the past years, the writer has waited until after the football season to delve into the subject of officials. But after hearing of the poor work of officials in the Wilberforce-Howard game and noting the incompetence of the referee in the Lincoln-St. Paul encounter, we can not refrain from a few remarks on this subject at this period.
The trouble in the latter game was all with the referee. This was perhaps the first game that Dr. Allen had refereed in the past five years. He showed clearly that he was out of place in this job. His poor work might have escaped unnoticed had he been serving in one of the minor positions. His greatest error was to blow his whistle at the wrong time and rob "Jazz" Byrd of a 88-yard run. A referee must know his business to keep a game moving, but unfortunately Dr. Allen did not.
Unquestionably there is a shortage of referees. The public generally blames the referee for every penalty called in a game and for that reason many officials are not anxious for the referee's job. In our opinion, every official sanctioned for a C. I. A. A. a game should be qualified to serve as referee, umpire, field judge or linesman. Of course, a man may be better fitted for one of the minor jobs but he certainly should be able to make a more satisfactory showing than Dr. Allen did last Saturday.
The officials must take most of the blame for the slowness of our games. Seldom does a game end under two and one-half hours. Too much time is allowed teams for signals and questioning of decisions and rules. A short penalty now and then would certainly put more speed and pen in our games.
CAN LINCOLN TURN BACK SHAW'S ELEVEN?
The Lincoln Lions face their final threat of defeat prior to the "classic," when they clash with Harold Martin's Shaw eleven today. It will take all the strength that Coach Young can muster to turn back the Tarheelers. A placement goal by Crudop is about all the edge we can give the Lions. Union meets Va. Normal today with the danger of having a perfect record marred. Va. Seminary gave Union much trouble with the overhead game. The Petersburg aggregation's running attack might decide the affair. However, we string the Panthers. St. Paul gets a breathing spell by taking on St. Augustine. Va. Seminary tackles a tough foe at Livingstone but "Whirlwind" Johnson's warriors apparently are improving with every battle.
With the Southern title safely tucked in the Tuskegee trophy room, the chief interest in football in the South now is for the championship of the city of Atlanta, Georgia. Morris Brown is out of the running but Morehouse and Atlanta must meet and the game is sure to be a thriller. Atlanta will take the Fisk aggregation into camp today while Morehouse opposes Talladega.
Next week we will tell the readers of this column why we believe Howard will defeat Lincoln after her three unsuccessful attempts.
CARTER'S ELIGIBILITY IS STILL UNDER DISCUSSION
"Cute" Carter, Howard's former star quarterback, in the writer's opinion is a victim of circumstances. Carter served in the Howard backfield in 1919 under the late Coach Robinson. His phenomenal punting was the only feature of the scoreless "classic" with Lincoln that year. In 1920 "Cute" won a regular berth on the Howard eleven that defeated Lincoln, 42 to 0. In 1921 Carter was disciplined by the university authorities for a misdemeanor, the nature of which we need not discuss. He was barred from playing football. During the Thanksgiving Day game, 1921, a note was sent to Dr. Morrison with the forged signature of Dr. Durkee, stating that Carter's suspension from football had been lifted. Carter had been working out with the squad all the year and was in perfect trim. Doneghy received an injury that forced him out of the game, and the Coach at once sent for Carter and put in the Howard backfield. Not until long after the game was it learned that the signature on the note was forged. Howard later apologized to Lincoln for having used Carter. He was refused a letter and naturally his brief period in the game did not count against him as a football year, according to C. I. A. A. rules.
Last year Carter did not represent the Blue and White although eligible. It was reported that Lincoln's request that his name be omitted from the eligible group was adhered to. Carter has been out with the squad while his eligibility for this season has been under discussion. No decision has been rendered as yet. It has been learned that his case is now up to the C. I. A. A. officials. Why so much time has been spent in deciding this case we can not see. There is no question but that according to C. I. A. A. rules Carter should be playing on the Howard eleven.
Marshall, Texas, Nov. 8—In a spectacular battle, the Prairie View eleven triumphed over the Wiley Wildcats by a score of 3-0.
With one minute to play Coach Huscles sent Sanders in for Pierson and the rookie back immediately proceeded to drive the oval between the uprights for the only score of the game. The game was full of hard tackling and great defensive work. The famed Wiley forward pass attack was completely covered by the Prairie View backs; while Prairie View's line

smashing tactics, for which they are noted, was stopped effectively by the Wiley lads.
Two big features of the game were Pierson's thirty-five-yard run and Taylor's fifty yard sprint in the third quarter, being stopped on the Prairie View five-yard line. The punting of Owen, the veteran Prairie View back, and Dodd, the Wiley rookie, was sensational. Despite the fact that several of Wiley's first string men, including Orange, premier punter and drop-kicker of conference were on the bench as result of injuries sustained in Texas College game and Southern University encounter the Wildeats did not show any appreciable weakness.

STORER COLLEGE LOSES
The Storer College eleven fell before the Christiansburg Industrial School warriors Saturday, 6 to 8. A fumble paved the way for the winners' touchdown. Storer reached the visitors 15-yard line time and again but lacked the punch to push the oval over.
MORRIS COACHING
"Mose" Morris, former Alco guard is assisting coach Roberts of the "Y" basketball five in tutoring the guards. The "Y" expects to have a great quint on the floor this year.
"Y" Sport News
The physical work department of the 12th Street Branch of the Y. M. C. A. began its indoor season October 1, 1924. In addition to the Junior and Senior basketball league a 'Midget and Church league are in process of organizing. All churches and Sunday Schools desiring to have teams in the league are asked to communicate with the physical director at once.
The class program for use of the gymnasium is as follows: Boxing, wrestling, calesthenics, Wednesday 7-8, Saturday 7-8; volley ball Wednesday 8-9, Saturday 8-9 p.m. The "Y" Junior League will open Monday, December 1, with 6 fast teams in the line-up. The Senior Church League will play its games on Wednesday and Friday afternoons from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m.
Volley ball contests are being arranged between the "Y" and Howard University and with any other nearby teams. Two stunt nights will be held during the coming season, the dates to be announced later. On Thanksgiving night a very special attraction will be seen in the gymnasium. The fast Philadelphia "Y" Volley Ball team will play the "Y" team from Norfolk, Va., for the championship of this section.
The 12th Street Branch Physical Work Committee had its initial meeting Tuesday, November 11 at 8 o'clock. The new committee which takes charge of this work this year consists of Dr. W. O. Claytor, Chairman, Mr. L. Watson, Mr. John Burr, Mr. D. B. Evans, Mr. E. B. Henderson, Mr. E. P. Westmorland, Dr. Isaac Cupid, Mr. Edgar Whitaker, Mr. Hughes, Mr. William I. Lee, Mr. I. N. Miller, Mr. A. Dade, Many new suggestions were presented with the intention to improve the athletic program which had already been tentatively drawn. Dr. Claytor, the chairman, and the other committeemen are very enthusiastic in seeing that the physical department be put back on its former working basis.
A TIP TO THOSE BUYING
TICKETS FOR CLASSIC
It has been learned through reliable sources that the football field at Griffith's Stadium for the Howard-Lincoln game will be laid off in a different position than it was for the Howard-Hampton game. In other words it will be in the same position as in 1922. The change will make Section P of the grandstand about midway of the field the choicest seats. Section Q has been reserved for the students. Section O is also in a good position.
"Demi-Virgin" at Howard Next WeeK
Mr. George H. Tucker has accomplished the impossible. The Howard Theatre under his management will present to he Washington public the most sensational and startling production ever attempted when the curtain rises on Avery Hopwood's "The Demi-Virgin" with the original New York production and an all star cast headed by Washington's favorite Evelyn Ellis, supported by an all star cast including Rudolph Grey, Alonza Fenderson, Margaret Brown and Marlon Taylor.
The play is the one which Avery Hopwood rode to fame. It deals with

AGGRAVATING PAPA
Stars Coming to the Howard in "Demi-Virgin"
Evelyn Ellis
the inside of that little town of Hollywood and its inhabitants who make the wheels of movie production go round and round. The actual making of bathing beauty pictures and thrillers is done in the first act and the rest of the show shows something of the jazz and pop that the people who produce pictures inject into their lives. The Demi-Virgin, the part played by Evelyn Ellis, is a young lady who on her wedding night had the bitter disappointment of finding that the girls would not let her movie hero bride-groom alone long enough for him to have one evening of an unmolested honeymoon. Without warning she leaves him. The wise crackers around the studios—are lost to know just how much of a wife she had been, decided that the entire situation was a draw, and they christened her "The Demi-Virgin" which means half a virgin—but that is as much as it is fair to tell.
The play holds the audience speechless with the funny lines. Startling innovations are carried through the entire show in a riot of laughter which it took nearly three years for Broadway to turn loose until the last at when laughter, sensation, and climaxes are combined in one of the most talked of situations ever produced on any stage. The stripping cupid poker party leaves the patrons gasping for breath and holding their sides in fear of laughing themselves to death.
Special numbers are done by Alfred Chester, Daisy Pizarro and Mara Basil.and in each case anyone of these three performers could and do stop the show. Miss Pizarro's "Emalina" and Miss Bazil's dance numbers are considered real classics. Alfred "Slick" Chester is a hoofer of no small repute. Other well known performers in the cast are H. L. Pryor, and Ruth Carr who hold enviable positions in the hearts of colored theatre goers the world over.
Among the bathing beauties are Baby Gree nand Ruth Hicks, both of whom are possessors of marvelous figures. The producers have left nothing undone in staging the show. The scenes in the movie studio is a practical one while the beautiful lighting effects in the other scenes, especially in the gold room, has been the talk of Broadway.
Mamie Smith at Mid-night Show
Mr. Tucker announces that in conjunction with the "Demi-Virgin" the midnight show will also be further boosted by Mamie Smith and her fifteen dancing dewdrops who will combine making this Friday night performance one of the gala events of the year at Howard Theatre.

THE MATTHEWS PLANK
William C. Matthews, National Organizer for the Republican Campaign Committee, comes to the front with a plan to make a decided change for the better in the Negro's political and economical aspects. Surely we can consider his plan for its real worth and ongratulate him on his effort to make the country better for his having lived in it. The Negro is not less in need of virile, militant leadership to-day than he has been heretofore. Indeed, he is more in need of such leadership, lest the present state of affairs so embed itself in the policy of the democracy as to necessitate a revolution to remove it. Any plan for the common good is worthy of the Negro's most careful consideration.

Test foe, character's worst enemy; here is another way of making it a charismatic to say it—in the one hundred years as shown that it is incapable of spending of Liberia was founded in 1822. Assistance of American colonization seals their freedom in the United States, and the aristocratic idea of a leisure class.

The Prohibition law does not the will of the people. Constitution is the Negro's surest method of which he cries. He should put forth towards the desired goal. He can be a normal problems without representation in the National and State governments in the end.
The plan, in general, has a national aspect, which the Negro may approve with a few reservations; for, he has a constitutional right and, therefore, should expect to hold any and all offices in this republic. Untiring efforts should be brought to bear in interesting him in the local governments that these may make him proficient in the national legislative halls. Negro schools and colleges could work wonders in this direction if they exercised one-fifth as much energy in things political as they do in things ministerial and medical.
But, the plan of setting aside certain offices as ones to be occupied by the Negro, should never be allowed to show itself. Segregation has become as distasteful to the American Negro as hemlock, yet in "article six" Mr. Matthews advocates a federal recognition of the office of Register of the Treasury as an office of the Race, and, in "article fifteen," he maintains that there should be no "segregation in the Government Service." Such inconsistencies come as a result of the lack of high and peculiar training.
In "article seven," there is a duplication of "article one." For, if the Negro is given "representation in the Diplomatic Corps," it is logical to expect him to be a "minister to Haiti or a Consul General to Port au Price." It would be far more satisfactory should the United States Marines be withdrawn and the nation restored to autonomy. Haitians in the main are a thrifty people, quite capable of self-government if outside interference does not become too great.
"Re-allocation of the Ninety-second and Ninety-third Divisions as combat divisions" is a phrase which has no place in the plain. Unlike the 369th Infantry, National Guard, New York, or the Eighth Illinois, neither division has been recognized by the Federal government as a unit in the national army. Nor were they composed of National Guard units, entirely; consequently, after their return to this country, the units composing these divisions reverted to their original state status at the declaration of demobilization. A re-constitution, no "re-allocation," would be a more logical demand to make.
Any institution or nation whose existence depends on philanthropy can not have independence of character. Almsgiving is liberty's greatest foe, character's worst enemy; hence to make Liberia a loan is another way of making it a charitable donation. For, it hurts to say it—in the one hundred years since it was founded, it has shown that it is incapable of spending money judiciously.
The Republic of Liberia was founded in 1822 by Negroes—"with the assistance of American colonization societies,"—who had obtained their freedom in the United States, and who carried with them the aristocratic idea of a leisure class. This idea has been so prevalent that, though Liberia is rich in mineral and forest resources, its exports for three years totaled only $58,377.00, while its imports for the same period were more than nine times as much—$542,605.00.
It has made no modern improvements, being satisfied to carry on its meagre agriculture with a stick instead of a plough. Government schools have been nearly supplanted, rather than supplmetned, by mission schools. It has no beasts of burden, no domestic animals, no cattle, only a "hand for alms." So lacking is it in initiative that it seeks to obtain existence without effort. Its delegates, who came to this country to show cause why a loan should be made, knew nothing of its economic possibilities.
To make a loan to a nation so thriftless would encourage it in laziness and subject it to the benevolent feudalism of the rich. A better recommendation would be that a committee be sent to Liberia with the express purpose of studying the economic conditions and reporting its findings to this country that a plan may be affected for the better. Liberia does not know, or rather does not exemplify, the requisites of autonomy.
Lynching is on the wane and will continue as long as migration affects a general distribution of the workers. No law prohibiting lynching will be worth the paper on which it is written without the approval of the people. The Prohibition law does not prohibit, because it is not the will of the people.
Representation is the Negro's surest method of removing the evils against which he cries. He should put forth every effort which points towards the desired goal. He can never solve his local or national problems without representation in the legislative halls of the National and State governments, for it is the one means to the end.

With the increase in number of travelers, comes the possible increase in danger to both types, if U Street remains the inadequately lighted thoroughfare which it now is. Almost nightly, reports come in of accidents on this street, occurring mostly in those sections in which there are many trees. The city owes it to its inhabitants to give sufficient light at night in order to safeguard those who are wont to get around after the day's work is done. It is not only to protect the life and limb of the Negro, but whites as well; for many of these are frequently seen on U Street visiting theatres, other amusements, and places of business.

Something of Interest

The Institution of the Husband
Society knows no institution which vouchsafear connoisseur of comedie humaine a source of surreality no less diverting speculation than that offered by known to civilized society as the husband. Nine the husbands of to-day are, to the women whom unto their bosoms, but comic figured at silently or to be razzed upon the least provocation. But, the wife is certainly not the comedie himself is, nor has he in the regard for her; yet he remains a target for her internal derisions of sions, sometimes more amiable, from "Butinsky." I have pondered of my unfortunate contemporaries years, yet various conclusions have First of all, I find courtship spectacle. You will agree, even a party thereto. It is a show which devolves him and one which presents to him a comparison; but to the woman, it is not now, since this business from the cradle to the grave. Being in man synchronously finds it expedient to take on the mental attributes of an actor, and to conduct him the manner of a mime cast for the leading role drama. His success in impressing, captivating a heart and hand of his lady love is measured by thecess he achieves in being the star in this romantic customarily, the lady becoming enamored of, and the purple haze which it gives out, capitulates the projection of her suitor. But the man who is a profession, does not keep up, nor does he feel the performance once the show is over.
However, here and there one finds husbands given with the grease-paint comportment and prosecomic a variable number of years after the wedding but, soon or late, they lapse back into the status quo unromantic fellows they were before the divine also say, beset them. The moment the husband to normal is the moment his wife, with the wisdom of women ever, translates her disillusion, usually calls into comfortable comedy. The lover's mask is ovealed as simply a poor clown who is often still for all that, is yet a poor clown: a human being "sheik" with a three-days growth of beard and shaved meal ticket.
While this process of actorial disintegration is husband, the actorial talents of the wife increase ratio. She, seemingly, awakens to the two of them are cast for a single role in the matrimonial relation and that the husband has forgot his lines; and consequently she appreciates duty to carry on the show alone, single-handed, natural training in romantic artifice stands her stead.

folks," as Mr. Arundel put it, the Englishman firmly believes will survive the test of time and prove a valuable asset to American Music. In speaking of the American Indian music Mr. Arundel confessed that most of the original tribal melodies that he had heard were extremely crude and seemed lacking in sufficient scale or variation in melody to make them very useful for adaptation into lovely American music without robbing him entirely of their Indian characteristics.
"Jazz is not, in my opinion, going to have any definite part in the formation of American musical history," said the Londoner. "It is just a type of popular song that will soon change into something else. There are a few jazz compositions that have real melody and they will be remembered as melodious 'hits' of other days have been remembered, but I do not believe that they will help in developing American music."
"As for the so-called 'ultra-modern' music, both of American and other countries, I personally do not care for it and cannot see how it can give anything of lasting value to musical history. Harmony and melody are what have given the beauty to the classics of Beethoven, Schumann, Shubert, Brahms, and even Wagner, with the revolutionary style of his music, held to these rules. I like especially the music of Wagner and of Verdi. But this dissonance and jangling lack of melody or unified theme that seems to be typical of modern music has no in-
Public School Piano Course
Classes in piano instruction for beginners under the direction of the director of music of the public schools is now an assured fact. More than 600 children is announced have registered for the lessons. The course will cover a period of 30 weeks and will cost the pupil $6. Tickets are being sold for 10 lessons for $2, and the money will be used to pay the salaries of the special teachers. The piano course is designed especially to determine the ability of a child to master the pianoforte. At the end of the first season the teachers will advise the children whether they should continue instruction. No pupil will be permitted to attend the piano class for more than two seasons. After that time a private teacher must be employed.
Teaching piano lessons in the public schools should prove a boom to music in the home and as well among the several local music teachers and

WEIR-JETER RECITAL OPENS BRILLIANTLY
An appreciative audience attended the opening recital of the Artist Course Series last Wednesday evening in Lincoln Theatre with Felix F. Weir, violinist and Miss Olyve Jeter assisting pianist. Mr. Weir in a carefully chosen program including "Concerto in E flat (First Movement) Mozart," which he gave with a broad sonority of tone, skillful phrasing and brightness of style, showed an amazing and infallible technique, vitality, mental and musical qualities of the highest order, and nobility of interpretation holding his audience completely under the spell of his magnetic personality and supreme art. His bowing is free and elastic, his tone full, rich and infinitely pleasing.
Olyve Jeter, pianist, gave an exquisite performance which aroused deep enthusiasm. Her tone was wonderfully beautiful and sparkling and her rippling technique of dazzling speed tempered with a fluent tempo fell from her nimble fingers as so many drops of sweeping rain, pearly in their character and melting away like snow under warming rays on a sunny morn.
Both artists were in rare form and responded with pleasing selections to several hearty encores. The audience was sympathetic in their appreciation of the soloists and the efforts put forth by the Artist Course personnel in bringing to our city such excellent musical attractions now booked. Next recital is December 10th when Wilson Lamb, Baritone of New York City, endorsed by The Musical Courier, will appear.
NEGRO MUSIC WILL SURVIVE
SAYS ENGLISHMAN
A Britisher, Frederick Arundel of London, is in this country as direcort of the Riesenfield musical accompaniment of a mammoth movie production now on tour. Since here he has made some very interesting comments on American music, the United States brand. He is of the Arundel family of Sussex, was educated at the Royal College of Music, by Kullak in Berlin and at the Ecole Musique in Paris, and for the last twelve years has devoted himself to the collaboration of music and the photoplay. He did not hesitate to state his opinions frankly in a recent little talk to some acquaintances regarding various kinds of American music.

schools. It will help instead of hindering music work generally and as a consequence more talented pupils will be discovered among the masses. Piano instruction in the public schools will aid rather than mettle many younger pupils as the opportunity to lay a surer foundation is enhanced through competent instruction whereas many times the prospective music student fails to secure a good foundation through some unqualified local teacher unknowingly. All the instruments should be taught to beginners in the public schools any way.

Once my hair was anything but long and silky soft as it is now, and my complexion was sallow, and there were often unsightly pimples on my face.
One day I heard of Exelento Quinine Pomade for the hair and purchased a jar. Almost immediately it stopped all dandruff, made my hair grow long, soft and fine, and gave it a delightful sheen.
Because of the perfectly wonderful results I obtained from Exelento Quinine Pomade, I purchased a jar of Exelento Skin Beautifier. It changed my sallow complexion to a clear, lovely skin, glowing with health. For pimples and other skin blemishes, it has no equal.
If I am as beautiful as people say, it is all due to Exelento preparations. Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Beautifier may be obtained for only 25¢ at most drug stores, or will be sent postpaid upon receipt of price by the EXELENTO MEDICINE CO., Atlanta, Ga.

COMMENT UPON NEGRO
SOLDIERS
What did Armistice Day mean to you?—perhaps a patriotic program at school, or a period of prayer at home. However you spent it, or however it impressed you, it behoves you to think deeply of all those black soldiers who fought for us, whether they be black Americans or black foreigners.
At Armistice time, nothing could be more appropriate than the following article which has been published and read by all the allied nations of the World War, and favorably commented upon by them—Ediotr.
[John Ashton, Special Correspondent of The Tribune, Paris, Sept. 12, 1924]
"I have been in many climes, and have seen many strange things, but I doubt whether anything ever impressed me so profoundly as the passage of a whole army corps of French colonial troops through the streets of Paris a few days ago.
"Like a swarm of ants, close on each other's heels, regiment after regiment, they trooped for six long hours between double ranks of admiring enthusiastic Parisiennes, stretching from Montrouge through the Latin quarter to St. Denis, right across Paris. Such enthusiasm, such patriotic fervor, such downright, utter abandon, I have never seen manifested before. Never were troops more welcome. It was like a Godsend to the anxious Parisiennes. Like a devastating horde of locusts, like the Goths and the Huns of old, the Germans were sweeping everything before them in the north and had arrived almost at the outer lines of the forts defending Paris. Reinforcements were badly wanted to check the invaders.
"Troops marched during the night. To see these 40,000 troops march along the Boulevard de Sebastopol, under the glare of the aure lamps, was worth going a thousand miles to witness. It was a sight such as one sees just once in a life time. "Straight from Africa they came with all their accoutrements—wagons, supplies, guns, horses and mules. It was not an ordinary army. Everything was bizarre, different, picturesque. It was something unconceivable, something incongruous—but all the more interesting—to the life of gay Paris.
"One's mind harked back unconsciously to the 'Arabian Nights' and ancient history, on seeing the seething, perspiring masses of African soldiers marching past like an allegorical army of many races, clad in strangely cut multi-colored uniforms. But there was a grim realism in the heaving, powerful chests and flashing, fearless eyes of these desert people, and poetry in the martial rhythm of their movements.
"Regiments of many races, every regiment sprang a surprise, from the inkiest of black equatorial Africa thru the various brown and olive hues of the Semitic races from the Mediterranean coast, down to the whitest European. The desert, exemplified by the strange costume of the soldiers and their peculiar models of wagons and harness, was transplanted to the streets of Paris. It was an anomalous—nay, a paradoxical—sight, such as no one in Paris had previously seen.
"Time witnesses great changes. Well nigh 2,000 years ago the French and English Crusaders went forth to battle against the ancestors of these self-same warriors, now going to battle under Christian flags. The most patriotic Frenchmen that ever lived could not have shown more fervor than these desert tribes as they marched thru Paris, confident of beating the Germans. Occasionally, a halt was made; one of the men in broken French would attempt to harangue the crowd, telling it to be not alarmed, that the Germans would never enter Paris as long as he and his comrades lived; that they would never give up fighting as long as a German was left in France.
"It is seldom that one sees such a fine uniform physique in such a large body of troops; and practically all were seasoned warriors. These men are fearless and are said to be irresistible in a bayonet charge.

LIST OF COMMON ERRORS
To attempt to set up our own standard of right and wrong and expect everybody to conform to it.
To try to measure the enjoyment of others by our own.
To expect uniformity of opinion in this world.
To endeavor to mold all dispositions alike.
Not to yield in unimportant trifles.
To look for perfection in our own actions.
To worry ourselves and others about what cannot be remedied.
Folks, I never say nothin' but what
I mean except when I say somethin'
I don't mean, providin' I mean what
I say. If I say what I don't mean,
I don't mean to mean what I don't
mean if I mean what I mean. Therefore if I mean what I mean I must mean what I say even if I don't say what I mean.
A LITTLE CHURCHGOER
Today's the very firstest time
I ever went to church at all
I couldn't go before because
My mother said I was too small;
But now I've had a birthday, so
I'm plenty big enough to go.
I listened very hard today,
And sat up just as still and good,
The people sang such lovely hymns;
And I sang too the best I could.
The preacher read the Bible twice.
I think that church is very nice.
My grandmamma, when she began
To go to church, was only three,
And she's been going sixty years;
She says she guesses I will be
Just like her—and I hope so, too;
'I'm going to church my whole life
through.

THE YOUTH MOVEMENT
The youth movement of this age is not confined, to the fields of education, Science and Politics, but we find the youth coming forth and demanding, as it were, "a place in the sun" in the work of Jesus Christ.
In evidence of this fact, we place before our readers the most masterly tion, science and politics, but we find and philosophical review of a recent Cicero Sims at Metropolitan Baptist Church.
The central thought of Mr. Sims' discussion was the fact that, Christ is the Prince of Peace to the individual and to the World's soul, and that our sole duty as his followers is to accept Him in truth and faith.
This example set by Mr. Sims should be an incentive to all young folks to join in the work of the Lord, be of some service to the Sunday School and Church, thereby preparing a path to success and great achievements. J. H. Harmon, Jr.
THE WONDERFUL WORLD
Great, wide, beautiful, wonderful world.
With the wonderful water around you curled
And the wonderful grass upon your breast
World, you are beautifully dressed.
The wonderful air is over me,
And the wonderful wind is shaking the tree,
It walks on the water, and whirls the mills,
And it talks to itself on the tops of the hills.
You, friendly earth, how far do you go,
With the wheatfields that nod and the rivers that flow,
With the cities and gardens, and cliffs, and isles,
And the people upon you for thousands of miles.
Ah, you are so great, and I am so small
I tremble to think of you, world, at all;
And yet, when I said my prayers, today,
A whisper inside me seemed to say,
"You are more than the earth though you are such a dot:
You can love and think, and the earth cannot!"

MEMORIAM
Seeks Divorce, Charges Cruelty
Through Attorney George E. C. Hayes, Mrs. Rosa Belle Johnson has brought suit against her husband, Joseph W. Johnson, for a limited divorce. She charges cruelty.
In her bill she says that her husband is unwarrantedly jealous, even to the extent that she was not permitted to visit her own brother's apartment socially or maintain an ordinary friendly relation with neighbors. She says that her husband very seldom accompanied her out and only on rare occasions contributed to the pleasure and amusement of her and their two children.
She alleges that on numerous occasions her husband indulged in drinking to excess and frequently gambled away his earnings and as a result had to go without necessities.
On several occasions, she says she had to call police of the Eighth Precinct for protection from his abuse and cruelty. One of her children was a "still birth," she alleges, due to the plaintiff throwing her across a table while she was in a delicate state.
She first left him, she says, in July, 1923, and filed a bill for divorce, but upon his promises she abandoned this suit and returned to their home.
He conducted himself creditably for a short period, she says, and then began anew the same abuses and neglect.
On June 16, 1924, he attempted to assault her by choking her and ordered her from the house, threatening to do bodily harm if she remained, she says she sought refuge with her mother. She filed a supplemental bill for divorce, she says, but he again made overtures and agreed to live up to the terms of a separation agreement, into which they entered, and she had her bill for divorce dismissed.
She alleges that he has not lived up to the terms of this agreement. Under the terms of it, she says, he was to contribute but $25 per month toward the support and education of their two children. He made one payment only, she claims.
She asks the court for a limited divorce and to direct the defendant to show cause why he should not be

With great pleasure I send a short testimonial of respect and confidence to Dr. George A. Carter. In April 1924 I was strenched with an attack of "Neuritis." After several days suffering I called in Dr. Carter, who relieved me in a short time. After a number of his treatments, I was much better. May God's blessings attend Dr. Carter.
