First in Local Circulation. Vol. 4, No. 38 Gar Asst. Su Agrees Yet Disagrees with the Dean of Women In a statement to the public school teachers of Divisions 10-13 at the Teachers' Institute at the Dunbar High School last Friday, Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent in charge of public schools, claimed that his letter to Miss Lucy D. Slowe, Howard University dean of women, in which he advised her that the school officers were not concerned with the propriety of teachers and normal school students sponsoring and participating in a show life the "Pollyanna Revue" with professional entertainers, had been "both unfortunately and incorrectly interpreted." Misinterpreted Letter The question was first raised by Dean Slowe in a private conference with Mr. Wilkinson. He afterwards submitted her criticism to the officers of Divisions 10-13 in order to reassure himself, and under date of January 13 he gave Miss Slowe their combined opinion, the pertinent part of which is as follows: "The officers of the Divisions of 10-13 are of the opinion that your criticism should be forwarded by yourself to the Pollyanna Club and not to outside agencies; that while the school organization is to have in mind always the character and indeed the deportment of its employees, yet it can justify action only in the case of of individual offenses; that the participation of school children in theatrical performances is a matter for parents to determine and not the school officials. The Officers are of the opinion that they have no jurisdiction in such cases." Dodges Issue Mr. Wilkinson in his statement which was made exactly 16 days after receipt of Miss Slowe's letter, amplifying his position dodged the issue raised by Miss Slowe. He devoted his time to a discussion of the general "conduct becoming to teachers and pupils, and his responsibility, as a school official, with reference thereto." Miss Slowe made out a bill of particulars. She questioned whether or (Continued on page 6) UNDERWRITERS GIVE MONTHLY PROGRAM The United Underwriter's Association of Washington, conducted a program last Sunday, at St. John's Tabernacle, W Street between 4th and 5th Streets, Northwest.

FAISO MASONIC H ENGAGES ATTY. B. L. GASKINS TO PROTEST CHARGE Mrs. Annie Nelson Faison, whose marriage to the son of a rich southern family, white, two weeks ago created such a stir here, has engaged Attorney Benjamin L. Gaskins, a leading lawyer here, to look after her interest in the case. It is believed that relatives of Faison are the ones who are pushing the suit for annulment of the marriage. One conical thing about the story published in a local white daily last week was the publishing of the story supposedly taken from papers filed by Faison's lawyers, and signed by Faison, with his address given as St. Elizabeth Hospital. As is known by all students of law, if Faison is of Sound mind, he has a constitutional right to bring suit in his name, but he is not of sound mind, and that is what his attorneys seem to be trying to prove, then he cannot bring suite himself as the court holds him incapable. The story shows the desperation of some of the white dailies in trying to make out a bill of particulars against a colored person. Mrs. Faison called on her husband at St. Elizabeth's this week. He was at cordial and loving as he was before being sent there. His one desire is to be released. According to one Mrs. Faison's friends, the Doctors at St. Elizabeth stated that Faison was not crazy. The authorities at St. Elizabeth are complaining on the retention of Faison there, stating they have no room for such a patient there. It is believed that pressure will be brought by his people to have the Veterans Bureau send him to Mount Alto Hospital. Faison continues to write his wife usually sending the letters special delivery. Mrs. Faison is incensed at the stories appearing in the white press to the effect that she kept her husband drunk, and other misinformation. Just what action her attorney will take to protect her rights could not be learned but The Tribune is reliably informed that several suits for damages are in the making.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1925 New York, N.Y., Feb. 4-According to Joseph Mirault, correspondent for the "Courier Haitien," organ of national defense, President Borno of Haiti, realizing that the American occupation will soon be withdrawn, is attempting to create a disturbance in the islands in order to retain the marines there as long as possible. Mirault charges that the desire to bring about a necessity for the U. S. Government to keep its forces there longer was the cause of the attack on the recent parade in Haiti which was participated in by people in all walks of life as a protest against the illegal arrest of Jolibois Fils, a Haitian editor. The attack was made HOTEL MANAGERS TO ORGANIZE HERE NEXT WEEK A meeting of hotel managers throughout the United States will be held at the New Liberty Hotel, 400-402 New Jersey Avenue, Northwest, Tuesday, February 10, at 2 p.m., Joseph I.

HOWARD UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH BROADENS ITS WORK The School of Public Health of Howard University in its attempt to serve in the Iragest possible way, has inaugurated a course of lectures for the colored social workers of Washington. The will to do this important bit of service has been stimulated by the earnest and frequent requests of this local group of workers. This is but the beginning of a larger program which the School of Public Health and Hygiene contemplates projecting. A department of Social Service leading to a collegiate degree was originally placed in the comprehensive plans of the School of Public Health. Unquestionably there is a need for training efficient social workers along broad lines which combine humanitarian with scientific principles, and this is the aim of Howard University. Among the lecturers are the following: Dr. A. B. Jackson, Director of the School of Public Health and Hygiene; Professor A. S. Beckham, Professor of Psychology; Dr. Benjamin Karpman, Professor of Psychiatry; Dr. Mary Fitch, Professor of Home Economics; Dean Kelly Miller, Dean of the Junior College; Professor W. S. Nelson, Professor of Religious Education; Professor Jones, Professor of Sociology; and Miss Emily Dwidee. He also claims that two weeks ago, President Borno, under the pretense that a plot was being fomented, which had as its object an attack upon his life, had Mr. Pouget, former Senator and ambassador to France, Messrs. A. Charmant O. Duplessy and Pierre-Paul arrested. Proof could not be furnished to support the accusation and the court dismissed the case. In spite of that, he says the prisoners were not released. Governor Russell, the American High Commissioner, is blamed for this state of affliction. President Borno, he says, has no authority whatever and is merely a tool in the hands MEHLINGERS LEAVE MISSISSIPPI TO SETTLE IN NORTH Mrs. Mayme M. White, of 1422 Q Street, Northwest a teacher in the District public schools, has returned from Mehlinger, Mississippi, where she spent five weeks aiding her father, Mr. Fred Mehlinger, to wind up his business affairs preparatory to moving away from there. Her father came with her. Mr. Mehlinger decided to leave Mehlinger, Mississippi, as the result of the killing of his son, James E. Mehlinger, on December 22 last, from ambush by unknown parties. He disposed of all of his personal effects last Thursday at a great sacrifice. He was engaged in the general mercantile business. The widow and four little daughters of the late James E. Mehlinger are at Rosedale, with her parents, but arrangements are being made to purchase a home for them in Memphis where she will be near her sister. Mr. Mehlinger and his wife, Mrs. Catherine Mehlinger, are making their home for the present with their son. Louis R. Mehlinger, at 2809 11th Street, Northwest. He contemplates reestablishing himself in business, but is undecided as to whether he will locate here or in the middle west. LLOYD MONROE OENIED NEW TRIAL Lloyd Monroe, who was convicted of second degree murder in connection with the killing of Policeman John W. Purcell, was denied a new trial by Justice Hoehling last Monday. He faces a sentence of from twenty years to life time imprisonment. Ernest A. Brown, Joseph P. Slaughter and William Ludley, who were implicated in the crime, pleaded guilty when they were scheduled to go on trial a second time. Monroe had the opportunity to plead guilty to manslaughter. He chose to go on trial and a jury returned to verdict of guilty of second degree murder. Had he pleaded guilty to manslaughter, the maximum penalty would be fifteen years.

Office: 920 U St., N.W. To Reply Miss Slowe Addresses Big Balto. Audience Miss Lucy Slowe, Dean of Women of Howard University, spoke to a packed audience at the Y.M.C.A., in Baltimore, last Sunday. This was Miss Slowe's first appearance in Baltimore this year. So forceful did Miss Slowe put her message over, that since returning to Washington she has received numbers of letters of thanks and praise for the sentiments expressed ni her address. Miss Slowe's address in part, was as follows: "WHAT SHALL WE TEACH OUR YOUTH?" The most precious thing in the world is a child. Every age of civilization has concerned itself with the training of its youth. The elders in every race surveyed their world, analyzed the conditions that the young must face and shaped their education accordingly. The object of such training was to make it possible for their young people to live usefully, happily and abundantly. As we turn the pages of history, we see more preparation for the training of youth being made as nations and races have advanced in knowledge. Today in America, we are spending millions of dollars on buildings, equipment and teachers in order that our children may be prepared to lead useful, efficient, happy and abundant lives. But are we mindful in all of our preparation of the conditions which our children must face in this complex modern age? Our home life has been changed so by economic and industrial conditions that scarcely any of our social life is now centered in the home. Our pleasures are found in the motion picture parlor, in the public or semi-public dance hall or in other places outside of the home. Parental supervision in relation to these pleasures is the exception rather than the rule. Our young people have become so sophisticated because of the sort of social conditions that they are exposed to that they rather resent suggestion and guidance from older heads. However, one cannot blame them very much for it appears that we elders in some respects are on the same level as the young folk. It seems to me that parents and teachers should, in the light of their experience and their knowledge of history, teach our young people some very definite lessons. In the first place, if our young people are going to stand the demands of modern life, they need to be trained in the fundamentals of character. Because of their not being years ago, it is all the more necessary that they be trained to exercise self-control, to be honest, to be truthful, to be strong for what is right. They must realize that when external restraint is removed, self-control must be substituted. In the second place, our youth must be taught to realize themselves and to realize that they are valuable to the world. They have been sacrificed for, and they must be taught that they (Continued from page 5) WALKER PILGRIMS NOW IN ASIA According to cablegrams received from the Mme. C. J.

All members are in good health and fine spirits. Washington's Best Advertising Medium. Jail SENTENCE OF 5 YEARS UPHELD BY U. S. COURT New York, N.Y., Feb. 4—Marcus Garvey, president of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, whose conviction on a charge of using the mails to defraud in connection with the sale of stock in the Black Star Line, Inc., was affirmed by the United State Circuit Court of Appeals, will surrender himself to the United State marshal in the next few days, Assistant United States Attorney Mattuck who prosecuted the case, said today. Garvey will be immediately taken to Atlanta where he will begin serving the sentence of five years. He must also pay a fine of $1,000. After his sentence is completed, Garvey frees deportation to Jamaica, British West Indies. Garvey's conviction was sustained last Monday by the Court of Appeals. This practically put an end to his dream of an African "Empire" of which he was the "Provisional President." He has been free under $15,000 bail since his conviction and sentence in June, 1923. He ran afoul of the law when he sent through the mail prospectuses and literature advertising stock for sale in the Blak Star Lone, Inc., which was to acquire and operate steam ships that were to transport to Africa men, women and material for the establishment of his "African Republic." According to Mr. Mattuek investors in the scheme lost more than $1,000,000. After his release on bail pending appeal, Garvey at once plunged energetically into his "welfare work." By "borrowing" money and by keeping away from the mails he raised $125,000, formed the Black Cross Navigation and Trading Company and bought the General Goethals, which was renamed the Booker T. Washington and put in freight and passenger service last month between New York and the West Indies. Federal officials said that virtually every contributor to the new company lost money in Garvey's earlier venture. FAIRFAX CO. N.A.A.C.P.

HI-JA CHEMICAL COMPANY Atlanta, Georgia The Tribune Sport Review Definitely Agreed that Howard-Lincoln Football Classic Will Be Played Definitely Lincoln Authorities Decide Not To Break Existing Contract --- Lincoln Uni., Feb. 2, 1925--The Annual Meeting of the Athletic Council of Lincoln University was held here a day, representatives of the faculty, alumni and undergraduates being present. In addition to the routine business, the question of the Lincoln-Howard game next Thanksgiving was considered. After a free discussion by all present the Council voted to play the Thanksgiving game with Howard. This decision was reached on the ground that Lincoln had signed a two-year contract with Howard, and that to repudiate this contract would be contrary to the traditions of Lincoln University, which has always stood on its honor. Since Howard officials have expressed a willingness to play the game under the C. I. A. A. code, the Lincoln Athletic Council felt that the C. I. A. A. would acquiesce in Lincoln standing by its legal and moral obligations entered into in good faith prior to Howard's withdrawal from the Association. Dr. W. G. Alexander of Orange, N. J., was re-elected Graduate Manager. The alumni was represented by Dr. Geo. E. Cannon, president of the Alumni Association, and Mr. Rhodes of the Philadelphia Tribune. Coach Young, and Asst. Coach Wood also took part in the proceedings. Dean George Johnson presided. Howard Conquers Morgan in Baltimore Baltimore, January 30th, 1925— Before one of the largest crowds that ever witnessed an intercollegiate game in Baltimore, Howard University basketball team won a most thrilling battle by the score of 44-43, Friday evening, January 30th, 1925. Cobbs and Hill were the highest scorers for Howard and Morgan respectively. Howard(44) Morgan(43) Lee ..... R.F..... Young McCoy ..... L.F..... Sheffy Carpenter ..... Center..... Hill Bundrant .....

Bernard Young, Jr.) Hampton, Va., Jan. 31—The famous Dragon of mythology entered the sanctum of the Seasiders' disguised as the basketball team of the Virginia Seminary and College of Lynchburg, but its sinewy coils failed to claw effectively enough to break Hampton's string of consecutive victories, and Hampton repulsed the attack with case in a loosely played game. The final score stood 40 points for Hampton and 11 for the Va. Seminary "Dragons." Lambright Stars Often The game as a whole was slow and uninteresting. A few of the players, however, put themselves into the game with the fight and spirit that lends color and interest to any contest. Chief among them was "Shorty" Lambright, Hampton's dwarfish but sensationally playing forward. Hargrove again led the Hampton quintet in scoring with 16 points. Hampton(40) Va.

Alcoes Win Thrilling Game From Dribblers The 'best game ever witnessed on a local court" was the common comment of the mammoth throng of basketball "bugs" as they filed out of Murray Casino last Sunday afternoon after viewing the struggle between the Alco Club, District champions and the Chicago Dribblers, generally known as the "4" Horsemen, in which the former conquered in a great uphill battle, 37 to 35. At no period of the game were the teams more than a point or two apart. The first half ended with Alcoes leading 20-19. The reserve strength of the champions was the deciding verdict. The losers using but five men while Coach Smith sent ten Purple players into action. Turner and Simpson had a slight edge over their teammates in all-around play.

Parker Institute, W. Va.—The basket shooters of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute added another victory to their unbroken string when they handed the "Wonder Team" from Wilberforce University a 37 to 7 beating, the most decisive defeat that team has suffered in several years. Lewis, captain of the Ohio five, was responsible for five of the loser's seven points. Their other twin counter was a spectacular toss by Ted Thompson, Washington tennis marvel, from near the middle of the court. Sinclair led West Virginia scoring with six double-deckers to his credit, while Gaiters and Capt. Drain contributed four apiece.. The guarding of Collums, the all-around work of Gaiters, and the unerring accuracy of "Terrible Terry" Sinclair were the outstanding features of the game. W.

NORMAL TRIMS DUNBAR The speedy Miner Normal quintet defeated Dunbar for the second time this season on the latter's court, Thursday by the score 32 to 28. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1925 C BILL PASKA Captain and Coach of the Lithuanians Two Big Games On At Casino Sunday A double-header featuring two Baltimore and two Washington teams will be the attraction at Murray Casino Sunday afternoon. In the second game Conway's Carlisle Big Five will meet the Lithuanian-American Athletic Club (white) while the Senegals and Caliphs will clash in the poener. Having already lost two heart-breaking tilts in the final quarter, the Carlisle quintet will try a come-back against the white boys. After performing brilliantly in the preliminary role all the year the Senegal quintet, undefeated Dunbar High School wonders, will take the leading part next Sunday afternoon at Murray Casino and meet the Caliph Athletic Club of Baltimore in the main attraction. The Caliph quintet are billed as the amateur champs of Maryland and Pennsylvania and formerly played under the name of Blue Birds. The Senegal aggregation is composed of Dunbar boys, not on the varsity squad. The line-up will be picked from Burton, Underdown, Weatherless, Fowler, Suter, Day, Luvall and Rhone. The Senegals have already defeated the Elite Panthers, Community A. C., Manchester, St. Cyprians and Dunbar varsity this season. OMEGA MEETS PHI BETA TODAY IN FINAL GAME The Omega Psi Phi and Phi Beta Sigma quintets will clash Saturday afternoon at Murray Casino in what will likely be the final inter-fraternity league game. The Omega aggregation needs but one more victory to clinch the league title and a collection of cups which go along with the championship. On February 21st at the Colonnade the Omega team will take on the Eighth Regiment quintet from Chicago. The members of the aggregation led by Sol Butler, nationally noted athlete, appeared here three years ago under the name of Forty Club. MOREHOUSE CONQUERS ATLANTA Atlanta, Ga.—The Morchouse College basketeers defeated Atlanta in an exciting game of basketball Friday, 53 to 36. The score does not give an inkling of the game that was played because A. U. although outplayed, in all departments of the game, showed a wonderful fighting spirit. In the first part of the last half Roberts of A. U. started shooting some uncanny baskets, until Dobbs was put in to guard him. Bailey led the March for Morchouse making 15 points and Traylor stepping on his heels with 14 points. Roberts took individual honors for A. U. making 18 points. Morehouse(53) Atlanta(36) Sykes . R.F.

ARMSTRONG'S BASKETEERS LEAVE FOR WESTERN INVASION Next Tuesday, the Armstrong High School basketball squad will board a Pullman for Chicago to play the Wendell Phillips High School quintet of that city on Lincoln's birthday, February 12th. Friendly revenge will be the slogan of the invaders. The locals will seek to erase the bitter defeat administered by the Phillips' marvels at the Convention Hall last February in the initial East-West encounter. Armstrong's task this year may or may not be a difficult one. Both teams have lost players from last year's squad. Turner, Ellis and Anderson left Armstrong much weaker while surely Phillips in one year could hardly replace players of the caliber of Simpson, Spears, Johnson and Phillips. All of Washington will be pulling for the Armstrong tossers to balance the series and bring the laurels east. We believe they can and will "bring home the bacon." CHICAGO TOSSERS HAVE RISEN TO GREAT HEIGHTS The rapid rise of the Chicago Dribblers into one of the most popular, as well as powerful basketball combinations in the city, is remarkable, indeed. The Dribblers, commonly called the "4" Horsemen, because four members of the squad of six formerly played with Wendell Phillips High School Quintet of Chicago, in their game with the Alcoes last Sunday had almost as many supporters as did the champions. The clean, aggressive game put up by the Westerners account for their popularity. The Dribblers give the fans plenty of high class action for their money, and that is the reason they pack them in. WILL THE ASSOCIATION BOYCOTT LINCOLN? Now that Lincoln has decided after quite some deliberation to live up to her two-year contract and play Howard, speculation is rife as to what action the remaining seven Association members will take against Lincoln. It is whispered that Lincoln will also experience the boycott movement. It is about time that a sound program was worked out covering interscholastic and intercollegiate athletics among our group. It would be absolutely necessary to cover both high schools and colleges. The organization should be national but divided into sections. Liberal regulations could be adopted that would apply to all while in certain sections more rigid rules might be put in use. School officials and Association members would do far more for Race athletics by trying to work out an adjustment of the Association-Howard controversy than by the present method of letting both sides fight their own ways. Basketball Notes Wilberforce minus Wu Fang Ward is finding the going rather tough. Ward is now campaigning with the Loendi club. Ted Thompson, a local product, is a regular on the "Force" team. Morehouse had an easy time with A. and T. College winning by the score of 69 to 18. Coach Harvey has only to conquer Howard, Hampton, West Virginia and Wilberforce and the "world is his." Hampton has powerful guards in Jones and Langston. Gunn, ex-Hampton all-around star is coaching the Newport News "Y." The Senegals defeated the Elite Panthers in Sunday's preliminary, 29 to 14. The St. Cyprian Big Five defeated the Buffalo A. C., Tuesday night by the score 53-32. In the preliminary the St. Syprian Reserves won from the Community Center team, 31-21, and the Lincoln Temple quintet, 29-28. Last week the Elite Panthers fell before the St. Cyprian regulars, 36-16 while the Reserves lost to the Senegals, 24-13. The Phi Beta Sigma team defeated the Miner Normal Five, Friday, by the score 37-21. The Sigma tossers held a comfortable lead throughout. Wilberforce defeated Simmons University twice on the court last week. The Force girls' team conquered, 39-21, while the Ohio boys came out on top by the score. MORE MEAT FOR THE "TIGER" "Tiger" Flowers added two more victims to his string last week. Tommy Robson of Boston, white, was knocked out in the sixth round. Ted More English middleweight, went 12 rounds, the limit, but took a terrific beating. Flowers will participate in two more bouts this month. On the 14th at the Commonwealth Club in New York, he will meet Jackie Clark. Two nights later, February 16th at Boston, 'Allentown" Joe Gans, will be offered as a sacrifice. Paul Berlenbach has asked the proposed bout between him and Flowers scheduled for February 26th to be called off. Berlenbach wants more time. An effort will be made to get Jack Delaney in a return fight. ERS LEAVE FOR WESTERN ASSIGN High School basketball squad will board Wendell Phillips High School quintet February 12th.

"Nimp" Winters and "Sript" Lee Washington products, are on the Breakers' hurling staff. Joe Williams, pitching for the Royal Poinciana Hotel club, defeated Winters in the opening game of the series between these teams. Britt, star pitcher of the Baltimore Black Sox gave Royal Poinciana outfit its second straight victory.

DUDULEY OBJECTS Editor of the Washington Tribune: I read the articles in your issue of January 24th, concerning the criticism of the Pollyannna show on Christmas night by Miss Lucy Slowe Dean of Women of Howard University in which she says she did not criticize the show given by the Pollyannas, but that she did object to the teachers and pupils appearing on the stage with professional entertainers. I, being one of the professionals who appeared, wish to say that it was only after much persuasion by the president of the Pollyannas and friends, that I consented to appear. I had heard much of the good deeds done by the Pollyannas and gave my services gratis as I thought it a very worthy cause. To show that it was not association that I was seeking, I refused a dressing room at the theatre, dressed at my home and reached the theatre just a few minutes before time for me to appear, immediately after my performance, I returned home. For Miss Slowe's benefit, I have appeared in every first-class theatre in the United States and Canada have had the best of association from coast to coast and I defy anyone to say that I have ever acted other than a gentleman. It is needless for me to say that there are bad in every profession, school teachers as well as professional entertainers and none but a very narrow-minded person would condemn a whole profession for what a few do and I dare say you will find as many ladies and gentlemen in the theatrical profession as you do among school teachers, lawyers, doctors, and the various other professions. It is too bad that the old-time hoopskirts are out-of-fashion as some of our so-called "leaders" would very gracefully adorn them. S. H. DUDLEY, Theatrical Promoter, Producer, Comedian and recognized, successful business man of Washington, D. C. THEATRICAL NEWS THEATRICAL NEWS MILLER AND LYLES IN "RUNNIN' WILD" PLAYS IN ATMOS A musical comedy replete with catchy singing, snappy dancing, beautiful scenery, gorgeous costumes, a wonderful chorus of forty and their own Orchestra—that's the description, in brief, of Miller and Lyles latest success "RUNNIN' WILD," the offering at Ford's Grand Opera House Baltimore, Md., for one week, commencing Monday, February 9th, matines Wednesday and Saturday. Many Washingtonians are expected to go to Baltimore to see this show. Miller and Lyles are bring to the Memorial City the original cast of eighty people, so popular for one solid year at the Colonial Theatre, in New York. Every singing and dancing number in the piece is sparkling with novelty and in melody. Miller and Lyles wrote the book, Mack and Johnson supplied the tuneful music, "Runnin' Wild" is said to be as good an entertainment as one could wish; it moves with pleasing rapidity through two acts and ten scenes and leaves a pleasant memory. It has a dozen or more clinging melodies, which are a few more than the average music and white show can boast. It has a dozen capable principals and a chorus who dance wonderfully, and their own "Runnin' Wild" orchestra, who plays through the entire performance, and offer divertissements between the acts. In short, it is recommended as an ideal way to THE FOLLOWING PHOTO IS A PHOTO OF A MAN IN A DRESS AND HAT, STANDING IN A HOME.

The piece is crowded with specialties, all of which are fresh and spontaneous and which are done by capable principals. Most unusual about the production are the chorus. The fact is they dance in a way that is little short of automatic. One can hardly describe their work as resembling that of a chorus. It is strikingly individual. They appear frequently during the show, and each time they are on they nearly stop the performance. They are one of the many good things in "Runnin' Wild" and one of the specialties that makes the piece as attractive as it it. The principals are all very good, Miller and Lyles have an individual style of comedy that provokes laughter continually. Their method of putting a line across is always effective. The play is stunning in sets and costuming, with beautiful lighting and electrical effects. All things combined it makes "Runnin' Wild" as delightful a musical piece as has played here this season and one worth seeing. As this show will not appear in Washington this season, Washingtonians who desire to see it should avail themselves of the opportunity of going to Ford's Theatre in Baltimore. It is a show you cannot afford to miss.

Our women should be taught that in spite of their new found freedom that modesty, refinement, reserve and integrity are still worthwhile. Parents and teachers should make a definite effort to put our young people in touch with the finest in music, in art, in literature. It is a waste of money to pay a teacher $2,000 a year to introduce our children to the songs of Irving Berlin, when Shubert and Schumann are waiting to be known. If the vicious influences of cheap music, of low type drama are to be contracted, we must see to it that fine amusements are put in the place of degrading ones.

WILKINSON SEEKS TO COMPROMISE The controversy, between Dean Slowe, of Howard University, and First Assistant Superintendent Wilkinson, of the Public Schools, as to "the propriety of having teachers, students—especially high school students taking part in certain types of theatrical performances," has attracted so much attention, brought forth so much criticism, caused so much comment, generally, in local circles, that it is highly probable that it will not stop short of the District Board of Education. Should it land there, Mr. Wilkinson will, no doubt, get the worst of it. He, too, suspects such; for, in his release of January 30, he does his level best—which is very poor—to smooth over his blunders, during the discussion, with a hope of effecting a compromise without acknowledging his error of judgment. All men, in every walk of life, rich and poor, intelligent and ignorant, make mistakes; Garnet C. Wilkinson is no exception. The community which he serves does not expect him to officiate without making, at some time or another, an error in judgment; but it does expect, even demands, that he should have the courage to acknowledge the mistake, when thoroughly convinced, if not in words at least in action. By trying to vindicate himself, in the manner in which he has, he has lowered his prestige far more than he can re-establish in a period of years. In his release of January 30, he attempts to prove that he was and is right in his position; that Miss Slowe was and is right in her contention; and that the public "incorrectly interpreted" the whole affair. It is rather strange that he should think the public so ignorant. Even if it were, his intelligence would stand out more preeminently had he taken cognizance of the public's ability to interpret expressions of civic interest and made known his opinions in language which is not ambiguous, a language which it could easily understand. He evidently thinks the public fundamentally ignorant for in his release of January 13, he was of the opinion that action could justly be taken, "only in the case of individual offences"; (how about group offences?) that "participation of school children in theatrical performances is a matter for parents to determine and not the school officials"; for the latter "have no jurisdiction in such cases." But in his release of January 30, he expressed the opinion "that it is clearly and unmistakably his duty and the duty of responsibility of every teacher, to censor the conduct and deportment of school children both during and after school hours"; that the teachers are in duty bound to "advise, to counsel, to suggest, and to persuade" parents and children. It is hard to see the consistency in these statements. But that is not all. He forgot that his opinions, which were given out January 13, are still fresh in the minds of the public. "To reassure myself," said he, January 13, "I took the liberty of submitting your criticism to the officers of Divisions 10-13." Took the liberty, in other words, as it is said in the streets, "he did it on his hardness," irrespective of what his conferee thought and asked. And before we had time to forget, he came right back January 30, and said, "By and with the consent of the Dean of Women of Howard University the questions were submitted, that same afternoon," this time, "to a large group of officials. . . for their opinion, advice and suggestion." These are rather conflicting, too much so for a person of his intellectual standing and accredited integrity. The fact is that he missed Dean Slowe's point of view. She questioned the "propriety" of teachers putting themselves in a position to be disrespected by students and the public and only cited the "Pollyanna Revue" as an example. He, evidently, understood it to mean a direct criticism of the "Revue" and expressed himself accordingly. Even if it were Miss Slowe's intention to prevent the second performance, we should sustain her; for, if we could prevail upon ourselves to accept the first showing for charity sake, we could not the second, which was purely for commercial purposes. We could as easily permit our ministers to participate in a "crap game," or to lay wagers on race horses and expect them to retain their respect and dignity. There is no difference in principle; both would be for money. However, we appreciate the fact that he has changed his opinion, though he was tardy in expressing it. We should have appreciated far more his change of position if he had acknowledged it frankly, without trying to cast suspicion upon his conference. If he strives earnestly and sincerely to re-establish the prestige of his office during the remainder of his term, we will forgive. Supt. Wilkinson Makes Belated Reply (Continued from page 1) "On the contrary the First Assistant Superintendent of Schools believes that the character, the conduct and deportment of teachers must always be above reproach on and off the job. The First Assistant Superintendent of Schools believes that it is clearly his responsibility at all times, to censor the character and deportment of teachers. The First Assistant Superintendent of Schools further conceives it to be his duty and responsibility to advise and counsel with teachers, at appropriate times, on the ethics of the profession and the rules of right conduct.

Such action should be speedy and certain. Attitude Toward Pupils "In his communication of January 13, 1925, the First Assistant Superintendent states that the participation of school children in theatrical performances is a matter for parents to determine and not the school officials. The Officers are of the opinion that they have no jurisdiction in such cases.' "This statement of the First Assistant Superintendent of Schools has been interpreted to mean that pupils may conduct themselves after THE WASHINGTON TRIBONE SATURDAY.

The general reaction against laws constitutional amendments, central government cracies" has been seen before, but it The proposed Twentieth Amendment would have popular support if it were being discussed on its merits. It lacks support because it is being discussed on the more exciting basis of a political theory. The simple proposal to afford adequate protection to the children is being bitterly denounced as an attack on the Constitution. The general reaction against laws, legislatures, constitutional amendments, central government and "bureau- nations, central government and bureaucracies" has been seen before, but it remained for the child labor amendment to show how profound it is. Like most reaction finally becomes, it has been illogical; and if it were possible to think that some of the opponents really believe what they say they believe we are facing a very doubtful future. Some go so far as to believe that we will never "have a good Congress again... Congress is, and must always be, a mob, and to intrust them with power for any reason whatever is a hazardous undertaking and should not ever be attempted. They have too much power now." This is sheer undertaking and monsense, and in so far as it f power it is sheer anarchy.

This is sheer nonsense, and in so far as it flatly opposes all governmental power it is sheer anarchy. Such opponents may firmly believe in the sanctity of our institutions, yet what they say is a great deal more subversive of the Constitution than anything in the futilities of the socialists, because what the opponents of the child labor amendment say happens to be in the popular mode and what the socialists say never has been. If they really believed what they say, there would be nothing left for them save to advocate either the overthrow of the Federal government, or the overthrow of all government, laws and legislatures of any sort. Most of the opponents of the child labor amendment are philosophical anarchists, without knowing it. There are faults to be found among all legislatures in this country, both Federal and State, and perhaps a more recent fault is a tendency toward excessive lawmaking. Yet to allow that fault to take up so big a place in the imagination that it is necessary to argue against any grant of power or against all laws, whether good or bad, is to indicate a somewhat deficient intelligence. Federal authority is demanded for the control of child labor in the United States. There is no escaping the conviction. It is no innovation. Most of the nations of the world have country-wide enactments for the prevention of the excessive, gainful labor of children—Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, China, Russia and others. The condition which exists here is that, though the majority of the people of a state might be favorable to a law for the benefit of its children in gainful occupations, it has been found that powerful interests may either prevent its enactment, or, if passed, render its enforcement difficult or impossible. Herein is the source and explanation of the state's rights argument: the right to prevent or ignore state law. Much opposition has been made because of the fact that no exemptions are named in the proposed amendment. Home and household employments should have been stated as not included, it is said. Were this true. Congress would have been handicapped and opportunities afforded for the practice of evasions in tenement house sweatshops, where it is notorious that children are employed by thousands. Friends of child labor reform should not be discouraged on account of the slump of rural sentiment, for eventually discussion will determine the truth and the reasonable course to pursue. The fight is on and the result will inevitably be for the benefit of the children. school hours as unseemly as they wish and that the First Assistant Superintendent of Schools disclaims all responsibility with reference thereto and day out, to have teachers and pupils maintain a strict observance of the moral code, the rules of right conduct, and the dignity of the profes- "Now, the First Assistant Superintendent of Schools believes no such thing. He is of the opinion that school children have no right to misconduct themselves, to offend against the moral code, to disregard the rules of right conduct at any time, either during or after schools hours. He believes that it is clearly and unmistakably his duty and responsibility, and the duty and responsibility of every teacher, to censor the conduct and deportment of school children both during and after school hours. That school system would be a sorry one indeed, the moral influence of whose teachers did not carry over into the lives of its pupils when school is not in session. "The First Assistant Superintendents of Schools further believes that no teacher has the right, either during or after school hours, to encourage a pupil to engage in any undertaking or performance that may rob him of his opportunity for rest or study, that is questionable, that is indecent, or is calculated to offend the moral sensibilities of the community. "The First Assistant Superintendent of Schools, however, assumes, and he believes he has the right to assume, that the children of Divisions 10-13 are moral, that they are being properly and adequately instructed by their teachers and parents to distinguish between right and wrong, and that they will to do the right and not the wrong. "The right of a parent, however, to permit his child to participate in evening entertainment or theatricals remains unquestioned. "To prohibit the participation of the child in such cases the teacher lacks jurisdiction. The teacher, though, has that moral responsibility and it is his duty in all such cases, to advise, to counsel, to suggest, and to persuade. And this responsibility and duty he should at all times exercise as a right imposed upon him by the profession. No Differences "There is, therefore, no fundamental difference of opinion between the Dean of Women of Howard University and the First Assistant Superintendent in Charge of Colored Schools as to what constitutes right and proper conduct for teachers and for pupils, as to his idea of his responsibility with reference to the conduct of teachers and pupils, and as to his duty, day in A.

This is sheer flatly opposes all governmental opponents may firmly believe us, yet what they say is a great institution anything in the futility that the opponents of the child large in the popular mode and what man.

"Nor should there remain in the mind of any person desiring to be fair and just, any doubt as to the real attitude of the First Assistant Superintendent of Schools with regard to his duty in respect to such matters." not it was sound educational policy for teachers and normal school students to appear in a revue, which had the following features: A cabaret scene, the Apache dance, the Hula-hula or Hawaiian dance, and a little child of eight years singing jazz songs. In the cabaret scene, Mrs. Sevellon Savoy, Miss Jessie Parks, Mrs. Hartford Burwell, Mrs. S. Fisher Clarke, Mrs. Theophilus J. Houston, Miss Mamie Lewis, Mrs. Miriam W. Lewis, Mrs. Joseph Murray and Miss Adella Parks, District public school teachers, and Mrs. Arthur B. McKinney, a stenographer in the office of Assistant Superintendent Wilkinson, were patrons. The Apache dance was done during the cabaret scene by Mile. Bessie De Saussaire, a professional dancer who at one time was with Jimmie Cooper's "Black and White Revue," a burlesque show, with Leonard Hill. The Hula-hula or Hawaiian dance was done in native costume by Miss Dorothy Craft, a teacher in the Baltimore schools. Miss Constantia L. Wharton, another Baltimore teacher, accompanied little Miss Margaret Brown, the eight-year-old child who sang jazz songs. Position Uncertain Mr. Wilkinson failed to state whether or not he regarded it as improper for school teachers and students to participate in a show of this kind, but contented himself with the generalization that it is his duty "to have teachers and pupils maintain a strict observance of the moral code, the rules of right conduct, and the dignity of the profession." The full text of this statement is as follows: "The First Assistant Superintendent in charge of Colored Schools is of the opinion that his communication recently addressed and forwarded to the Dean of Women of Howard University has been both unfortunately and incorrectly interpreted. He, therefore, takes advantage of this opportunity, in simple plain and di- MUSIC FORUM By Wellington A. Adams ABBIE MITCHELL, DRAMATIC SINGER, COMPLETELY CAPTIVATES LINCOLN AUDIENCE Abbie Mitchell, a remarkable dramatic soprano and a mature artist, sang so exquisitely that an audience of several hundred music lovers and prominent social leaders gave her wrap attention until after her final encore in the third recital series of the Artist Course at Lincoln Theatre Wednesday afternoon, January 28th. Far too few however, availed themselves of the rare privilege of hearing Miss Mitchell, combined with the popular price made possible by the cooperation of the Artist Course personnel. We heard her in Massenet's "Pieurez, Pleurez," from the opera "Le Cid," an aria sung with velvet tones and pathos even through its exquisite thrills and florid passages. The singing of Schubert's "The Erkling" in German made one wish for more, so much a song-drama she made it. Her Russian group was interpreted with tender meaning, and Landon Ronald's "Southern Song" as an encore charmed in its subtle delicacy and rect language, to restate and to amplify his position expressed in his letter of January 13, 1925, so that all educational employees and the public may be fully and completely advised of his real attitude on the questions of the conduct becoming to teachers and pupils, and his responsibility, as a school official, with reference thereto. "Request being made of him, the First Assistant Superintendent of Schools on January 13, 1925, granted the Dean of Women of Howard University a conference in his office at the Franklin School. "The occasion for the conference was a benefit performance given on Christmas night for a charitable purpose by a group of young ladies. Several teachers and pupils participated in this performance. "The conferees discussed the advisability and propriety of teachers and pupils and professional actors participating in such a performance, the danger of thus obliterating the line between teacher and pupil, the chances of thus destroying the respect which pupils should have for teachers, and the obligation of school officials to require of teachers and pupils proper conduct, and to maintain the dignity of the profession.

We note with pride in the February issue of The Howard University Record a former music comment by the writer of this column credited to "The Washington Tribune" and another one of the writer's comments was published in one of their last year's issues, alike credited to "The Washington Tribune" without mention of the writer of the articles. Meantime we note in the February issue another music comment clipped from a white newspaper and naming the writer of that comment. We wondered if the mention of any one music critic in a periodical's reviews deserves more than that of a fellow music critic, whether white or black, of another similar periodical? "Dat doan seem lak hits quite fair an' reas'n'ble," as an old man remarked in an argument. "By and with the consent of the Dean of Women of Howard University the questions were submitted, that same afternoon, to a large group of officials of Divisions 10-13, for their opinion, advice and suggestion. By agreement between the conferees the result of the conference with officials was to be communicated to the Dean of Women of Howard University. "The opinion, advice and suggestions of the officers upon the matters under discussion were communicated to the Dean of Women of Howard University in a letter under date of January 13, 1925. "That letter was incorrectly interpreted. "In that communication the First Assistant Superintendent of Schools stated that while the school organization is to have in mind always the character and indeed the deportment of its employees, yet it can justify action only in the case of individual offenses." "This statement has been interpreted as meaning that public school teachers may conduct themselves as improperly as they wish, and that the First Assistant Superintendent of Schools disclaims all responsibility with reference thereto.

Y.—That the Urban League has only begun to realize its responsibility to the Negro in America, was the leading thought advanced by Dr. John Hope, president of Morehouse College at the annual meeting of the New York Urban League at Salem Church in this city, Sunday afternoon. Heywood Broun of the New York World, speaking on "The Eclipse and Racial Friction," ventured the prediction that a Negro would come whose genius and influence will be so great that it will catch the imagination of the world and cause the disabilities of his race to disappear. "Roland Hayes," said he, "has done much to dispel from the minds of thousands the inferiority complex. All real great humanizing movements have followed the wake of some great soul. This man may already be born or he may be born any moment. When he comes the day is yours." Arthur C. Holden, president of the League presided, being introduced by John E. Nail. The report of the executive secretary, James H. Hubert, indicated that the accomplishments of the New York Urban League in 1924 has surpassed those of any previous year. The public evidenced its interest in the League's program by contributing nearly $40,000 during the past year. --- 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.

RADIO THE SIMPLEST RADIO RECEIVER The air is full of mystic, enjoyable music and lectures dealing with business, education, politics and science. If one does not possess a radio set, which enables him to hear these things, he is missing much of that which would be of value to him. With the price of radio sets, parts and accessories as low as it is at present, there is no excuse for any one being excluded from that great multitude of enthusiasts termed "listeners-in." It is not necessary to spend many dollars to be able to pick up and enjoy Insulator Copper wire wiring Wooden pole Plastic wire Ladder wire PHONE CRYSTAL DETECTOR AIR GAS LIGHTNING ARRESTED Left position in the ground the wonderful programs being broadcasted nightly by the many American stations. Such expenditures of hard-earned funds would in no way agree with the poor man who possibly, does not realize, that a very effective little radio set may be made at home for less than five dollars. No, that is not, as you are probably thinking an exaggeration—it is a fact. It is only necessary to purchase the following parts, then work can commence. 100 ft copper aerial-wire 2 porcelain aerial insulators 2 wooden poles (to support aerial wire) 1 porcelain tube 1 lightning-arrester 1 pair phones 1 crystal-detector with crystal The phones must, preferably, be of a good make. (It doesn't pay, in the long run, to buy a cheap set of phones which are claimed to be "guaranteed" but never give satisfactory evidence of their so-called "high-class.") Get a good headset (phones) which retails at three or four dollars and buy the other parts at a ten-cent store or any higher-priced establishment—just as the purse permits. After all the parts are purchased, the first task to be considered is the erection of the aerial (the outside-wire.) The illustration portrays a very efficient aerial consisting of a single wire suspended between two poles secured to chimneys. The constructional data is all clearly brought out in the drawing and if the plan is accurately followed out and the aerial made as long as possible, there is all likelihood that your first radio will be a decided success. Remember, a long one-wire aerial is much better, for receiving purposes, than a longer or shorter two-wire or three-wire device. Connect the various parts with copper wire as is shown in the drawing taking particular care that all joints and connections are clean and "tight." If you have no metal pipe handy, with which to make the "ground connection," run the wire directly to the cold water system of the house. The lightning arrester must be of good quality if it is to function properly—remember, the arrester is the safety unit of the apparatus and the house during severe thunder storms. Lightning has courtesy and regard for no one; and with a poor arrester it will dangerously exhibit its bad manners. When all the parts are connected, as shown in the drawing, the small set is ready for the first tryout. Consult the radio-program of one of the newspapers and if, perchance, a local station is on the air at the time, everything will be in line for a good test and a musical treat. Fut the phones on and, adjust the headband so that they fit the ears snugly yet comfortably, after which all attention must be directed on the crystal detector. You will notice a fine-wire spring touches the crystal, (this spring is known, in radio, as the "catwhisker") WINNERS IN THE TRIBUNE CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENT JINGLE CONTEST --- The prize of one dollar goes to Eudora Scurlock (11) of 929 Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest, for the best Tribune Classified advertisement jingle.

MILDRED'S THANKS Dear Editor: It was quite a surprise to me when the Tribune came Saturday and I found that I was the winner of the first week's jingle contest. I thank you very much for the dollar. I shall endeavor to make our page bigger and better. Thanking you again and again. MILDRED BUTLER (12) Send in your photograph so as to become the Page's host or hostess. because of its hairy appearance), adjust the handle of the detector making the catwhisker come in contact with various parts of the crystal and soon you will hear music or talking in the phones. Then there is but one more thing to do and that is, getting the program to "come in" loudly. This is accomplished by resting the catwhisker on a more sensitive part of the crystal. First—Stretch your aerial wire at a seventy or eighty foot length. Second—Connect your lead-in wire to your aerial. Do not let lead-in wire come in contact with other metal or touch house. If lead-in is to make a bend, it is best to protect it in a porcelain tube as shown in plan. Receiver This small radio-set has a receiving radius of twenty-five miles. It may be used with an inside aerial if you live within three or four squares from a broadcasting station. Such a receiver was used in the early days of wireless communication by the wireless-telepgraph stations of the Army and Navy.

A SMILE Dear Editor: I have been reading many of the jingles sent to you, and I have been working on a poem so I thought I would change and let it be a jingle. Here is also the saying of a boy three years old. Mother: John wash the baby's face and have it shining. Boy: Yes, mother. (Five minutes later) Mother: John! what do you mean by putting polish on the baby's face? Boy: Mother, you told me you wanted the baby's face to shine. AN IMPORTANT CAUSE OF DISEASES W. C. Dalbey, D.D.S. All sickness is caused by microbes, or germs. Because we cannot see these germs with the naked eye, we must not think they do not exist, for there are many things we cannot see that we know exist. We said that each disease is caused by a special kind of germ, just as each kind of vegetable has its own kind of seed, or each kind of fowl its own kind of egg. We must not forget that many of these germs which cause disease are very strong and poisonous. They get into the mouth from air, water, and food. When the mouth is unclean because of bad teeth, four deposits upon the All jingles must be original. Jingles must consist of four or five lines each and must contain the phrase: Washington Tribune classified. You may submit as many jingles as you want to. Contest open to all Tribunites. Get busy, sit down and write a jingle now and send it in. teeth, or decayed places in the teeth, these germs multiply very rapidly, because the mouth in this condition is a perfect incubator, or egg hatcher. The germs are swallowed with the food or drink. They then go out into different parts of the body and cause swellings about the neck and jaws and other places. These germs cause rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica, gastric and intestinal irritations, ulcerations in various organs, diabetes, kidney diseases, derangement of the heart and lungs and blood vessels. Pyorrhea is a very bad disease of the mouth, quite prevalent among most classes of people. It is caused entirely by neglect of the mouth and teeth. Pus pockets surround each tooth. This pus-pocket condition is caused by deposits about the teeth, also by decayed teeth. The teeth finally become loose. These pockets of pus are merely accumulations of germs of different kinds. More or less of this pus is swallowed all the have said before, causes many kinds time, mixed with the food, and as we of disease. The germs lodge in the weakest parts of the body, and there they cause trouble. To cure the sickness of the body, the mouth must first be thoroughly cleaned by scaling the teeth and filling all cavities. This will stop any further germs from coming from the mouth and going into the system. Of course at the time the mouth is thoroughly cleaned, all missing teeth should be supplied in the most scientific manner, so as to give the greatest possible masticating surface. After the mouth is thoroughly cleaned, it should be kept clean by brushing the teeth with a suitable toothbrush after every meal. Every one should visit the dentist three or four times a year and have his teeth scaled of any deposit that may be upon or around them. In a proper toothbrush, the rows of bristles should be rather far apart, so as to allow the brush to be more thoroughly cleaned. A brush of this kind will clean the teeth much better than the ordinary kind will, as the bristles in rows wide apart can more easily get between the teeth. To clean the teeth thoroughly, the brush should be used with a rotating or twisting motion, as well as a back and forward motion. Next to godliness is cleanliness. One of the first steps in cleanliness is undoubtedly cleanliness of the mouth and teeth daily. The mother who has helped her children to form this habit, has accomplished more toward preserving their health than can be estimated. CLASSIFIED BE YOUR OWN LANDLORD, OWN YOUR HOME, SEE— W. H.

Returns First Degree Verdict The grand jury recently returned an indictment against John Howard for first degree murder in connection with the death of Grace Coates on June 28, 1924. It is alleged that Howard on the evening of the day of the crime went to the house of Mrs. Nellie Powell, 1805 Fifth Street, Northwest, where the Coates woman was staying. She was upstairs in her room when he came. He asked Mrs. Powell to call Grace Coates downstairs, which she did. Howard talked with her for about an hour in the parlor. Then three shots were fired and the woman was found shot dead. Jealousy is supposed to have been the motive of the crime.

WESLEY ADDRESSES TEACHERS Professor Charles H. Wesley, head of the Department of History of Howard University, was requested by the teachers of the District of Columbia, in the 10-13th Divisions, to conduct a Round Table at the Annual Teachers' Institute held January 30th. The subject for presentation and discussion was "Negro History in the Public School Curriculum." This is the second appointment in successive years of Professor Wesley as Institute Lecturer. Strenuous efforts are being made by the local teachers to have the study of Negro History formally introduced into the school curriculum, preferably through specific courses, and if this should prove impracticable then by equipping the teachers so that collateral study may be conducted in this subject. The study of Negro contributions to civilization has been regarded as a valuable aid in the creation of interracial understanding and goodwill, and the suggestion has been made that it would be a worth-while effort to have such study as a part of the work in history in the schools for both races.
