ROYAL PATRON OF EASTERN STAR SUED FOR Court of Appeals Upholds Segregation Covenant on Bloomingdale Property
First in Local Circulation.
ROYAL Court
OPINION GIVEN BY JUSTICE WHO WROTE CURTIS CASE DECISION
The Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia again upheld residential segregation here when it handed down a decision Monday holding valid a covenant among property owners not to sell to Negroes.
Curtis' Case Controlling
The opinion was rendered by Associate Justice Van Orsdel, who also wrote the opinion in the Curtis case, which has been appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States. The court adhered to its decision in the Curtis case.
The decision upheld a temporary injunction secured in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia by Daisy B. Wolfes, Erna M. Bibb, Charles J. Orem and other property owners in the Bloomingdale section against Minnie E. Torrey and Soreno S. Ivy.
The property in question is located in Randolph Place, Northwest. It was owned by Mrs. Torrey, who sold it to Mr. Ivy, a colored person, and executed a deed, which was recorded before the filing of the suit for an injunction.
All the deeds to this property from the original owners contained the following restriction:
"Subject to the covenant that said lots shall never be rented, leased, sold, transferred, or conveyed unto any Negro or colored person under a penalty of two thousand dollars, which shall be a lien against said lot."
From a decree of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, issuing a temporary injunction, Mrs. Torrey and Mr. Ivy appealed.
Court's Opinion
The court in its opinion said.
"The case turns wholly upon the validity of the covenant in the deed, and the right of the plaintiffs to have it enforced in a Court of Equity. It is apparent that each of the parties to this action, plaintiffs as well as the defendant Torrey, when they purchased their homes, subjected themselves to the restrictive covenant, not only for their own protection, but upon the assurance that a similar restriction would rest upon all other property embraced in the Middaugh and Shannon Development on Randolph Place.
Cites Curtis Case
"Nor is the contention of appellants that the covenant in question cannot be enforced in equity sound. 'Equity enforces contracts and covenants in regard to property entered into between prior grantors and grantees, in regard to the use of the property, especially if common property or property descending from a common source, against subsequent owners affected with actual or constructive notice of such contracts and covenants.' Trudeau v. Field, 69 Vt. 446,450. This principal was sustained by this Court in the recent case of Corrigan, et al. v. Buckley, (the Curtis case) 299 Fed. 899. In that case it was ruled that the constitutional right of a Negro to acquire, own and occupy property does not imply the constitutional power to compel sale and conveyance to him of any particular private property. The citizen, whether he be black or white, may refuse to sell his property, or he may sell it under such lawful restrictions as he may see fit to impose. This right of placing restrictions upon the use of property is available alike

DR. ISAAC FISHER OF FISK WINS SCHOLARSHIP
New York, May 31—Appointment of fifteen scholars and educators in the United States as the first to receive fellowships from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation was announced today. The fifteen, one a colored man, will spend the academic year 1925-26 in work on a wide range of subjects, their studies taking them to the Far East and Africa. Isaac Fisher, a teacher in Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., will study danger trends in world racial relations in this country and abroad. The foundation, which has a fund of $3,000,000, was established by Simon Guggenheim, former United States Senator and Mrs. Guggenheim, in memory of their son, who died in 1922.
CATHOLIC SCHOOL HOLDS ITS FIRST COMMENCEMENT
The first closing exercises of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute, a national school for colored youth erected at Ridge, Maryland, were held on Thursday, May 28, with a large attendance, particularly from Baltimore, Washington, and Maryland.
The principal address was by Professor Eugene Clark, Principal of the Miner Normal School, Washington, D.C. Brief talks were made by several, including Dr. Aaron Russell, a prominent dentist of Washington, who has conducted a dental clinic during the year at the school at which students and residents of the County were treated. Included also were talks by Admiral William S. Benson, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees; A. C. Monahan, Secretary of the Board of Trustees; Mrs. Gabrielle Pelham, of the Washington, D.C., Community Service; Mrs. Carrie Syphax Watson, of the Domestic Art Department of the Washington Public Schools; Miss Caroline Hunt, U. S. Bureau of Home Economics, Department of Agriculture; and Mr. William Prater, Secretary of the Federated Colored Catholics of the United States. During the meeting the students gave several musical selections, including "Come, Holy," "Go Down, Moses," "Italia," and the national Negro hymn.
The Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees held an adjourned meeting during the day. It was decided to build immediately a cost not over $5,000, and a dormitory for 40 boys. Also, to improve the roadway leading from the state road to the school. These improvements are absolutely essential, unless the institution is to turn down a large number of applicants for admission for the coming year. Seventy-seven have already applied, these applications coming from fourteen different states. The enrollment during the present year, the first year of the school's existence, is thirty-three. All of these have been enrolled in regular junior high school work. In addition to academic work, they have had practical instruction in carpentry, painting, farming, cooking, and laundering.
to all citizens, white or black, and a covenant thus placing a restriction upon the use of property is enforceable in equity against a member of the excluded race, whether the person particularly excluded be white or black. We think the Corrigan case is controlling here."

PROF. HAWKINS SECURES GIFT OF $200,000 FOR A. M. E. SCHOOL
Kittrell College of Kittrell, North Carolina, received in the forms of gifts last week, $200,000 from Benjamin N. Duke, tobacco king, of New York City. $100,000 of this amount was given unconditionally; the other $100,000 is to go toward an endowment for the school. This latter amount was given in bonds of the Duke Power Company of North Carolina. This gift was secured by Prof. John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the A. M. E. Church and president of the Prudential Bank of this city. Prof. Hawkins has been a close friend of the Duke family for over thirty years. As an evidence of Mr. Duke's belief in Mr. Hawkins' integrity, he personally delivered to him a check for $100,000. As a further evidence of Mr. Dukes' faith in Negroes to manage their own affairs, he asked that the check be deposited in the Prudential Bank of which Prof. Hawkins is president.
These funds which were deposited this week will remain in the Prudential Bank until expended. By special order of the Trustee Board of Kittrell, and request of Mr. Duke, Prof. Hawkins will have general over-sight as to how this fund is to be applied. The announcement of the gift was made at the Commencement exercises of the College last Thursday, May 29. The vast crowd cheered to the echo, When the Trustee Board was informed by Prof. Hawkins of the gift, the members were so elated that many of them embraced him. Another announcement at the Commencement exercises was that friends of the A. M. E. Church in the second Episcopal district, embracing the Baltimore, Virginia and North Carolina Conferences, had subscribed for more than $50,000 towards a special building fund and had paid in more than $25,000 of the same.
In addition to making his gift to Kittrell College, Mr. Duke asked Prof. Hawkins to assist him in distributing several thousand more dollars. This money went in forms of gifts to several small institutions in the South, including $2500 for Colored Orphan Asylum at Oxford, North Carolina. In making his gifts to Negro education, Mr. Duke was not only influenced by the confidence and personal esteem in which Prof Hawkins is held by the Duke family, but also by the many evidences of self help and business ability shown by those in charge of the schools and colleges and the several departments of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. The next building to be erected at Kittrell is an administration building. This will be the Angier B. Duke Building in honor of the son of the dnor. Most of the active officers of Kittrell College are educators and successful business men. This policy was advocated by Bishop J. A. Johnson, the President of the Board of Trustees. Professor G. A. Edwards is President of the College, Dr. John R. Hawkins, Fiscal Agent, is an addition to his important position of Financial Secretary of the A. M. E. Church, President of the Prudential Bank of Washington, D.C. Mr. J. M. Avery, Secretary of the College, is actively identified with many prominent business and fraternal institutions, chief of which is the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company of Durham, which he is Vice-President and Secretary. Prof. W. G. Pearson, Treasurer of the College, is President of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Com-
BAPTIST CONVENTION TO MEET HERE
The Friendship Baptist Church of which Rev. D. Y. Campbell is pastor, will entertain the New England Baptist Convention, which will meet here June 16th to 22nd, inclusive in its Fifty-First Annual Session. Main session will be held at Metropolitan Baptist Church. Special sessions of the Women's Auxiliary and the B. Y. P. U., will be held in the Florida Avenue Baptist Church. The convention will bring here many noted clergymen and leaders in the Baptist connection.
STUDENTS GET REPLY FROM H.U. FACULTY
The Howard University faculty will consider only reported cases of personal misdeeds of students during the recent strike against military training and physical education; will not count absences from classes during the strike period, and will take no action under the "20-eut" rule until a special committee appointed to consider the whole question of physical education makes its report.
This is the gist of the decision of the Howard University faculty on the three requests submitted by the students for immediate consideration. The students were advised of the faculty action by F. D. Wilkinson, registrar, last week. Arthur M. Brady, president of the Student Council expressed satisfaction with it as far as it goes.
The students requested that no penalties be issued against those who participated in the strike; that no "cuts" be counted against students for absences during the strike period, and that no student be suspended as a re- (Continued on page 3)
CORNER STONE LAID FOR
NEW BUILDING
At one o'clock, Tuesday afternoon, June 2nd, the cornerstone of the New Gymnasium and Armory at Howard University was laid, which together with the Athletic Field is to cost $197,500. The exercises were simple, but impressive with brief addresses being made by Dr. Charles R. Brown, Dean of the Yale Divinity School, and President of the Board of Trustees of Howard University; other members of the Board of Trustees of Howard University, and by Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, President of the University; and Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer.

NEW TRUSTEES ELECTED AT H.U., RECORD BUDGET IS ANNOUNCED
The annual meeting of the Board of Trustees of Howard University was held in the Board Room, Carnegie Library, on the campus of the University, Tuesday, June 2nd, at 10:30 o'clock. Dr. Charles R. Brown, Dean of the Yale Divinity School, New Haven, Connecticut, and President of the Howard Board of Trustees, presided. The annual reports of the administrative officers of the University, Dr. J. Stanley Durke, president, and Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer, were presented.
The President's Annual Report
The report of the President indicated that the attendance during the past year in all schools of the University has been 2064, from forty-seven states, also Africa, British West Indies, British Guiana, Canada, Central America, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Porto Rico, Republic of Columbia, and Virgin Islands.
The president reported that the work of the year has gone steadily forward and upon the whole has been the most successful series of years. The more personal attention of the trustese through its various officers, and especially the close attention of the Budget Bureau, has simplified and made more effective, much of the work. This cooperation has greatly heartened and strengthened the administrative officers. Besides all the usual work and burden which must come upon the President, he has carried two classes a week during the year in Voice Building and Platform Art. One class has been conducted for the School of Religion and one for those students in the college who have desired to take such special training.
The Secretary-Treasurer's Report
The report of Doctor Scott, secretary-treasurer, reviewed the financial condition of the University during the school year, 1924-25, and detailed at some length the general improvements which have taken place in connection with the educational plant of the University, and the University's general expansion in other directions.
The budget for the year 1924-25 has amounted to $618,018, including the unexpended portion of the Government appropriation for the Gymnasium, Armory, and Athletic Field project, which latter sum has been obligated but not yet expended.
The University Budget for 1925-26 "The University Budget for 1925-26 will include (in case the $130,000 for equipment of the New Medical School Building is secured) a Government appropriation of $591,00 and, in addition, appropriations out of General Funds which will amount, approximately, to about $265,000 (estimating on the basis of the figures of 1924-25), or a grand total of $856,000. This is most likely the largest budget of any educational institution in the world specializing in the teaching of colored youth. Every dollar of this huge sum will be expended under the most careful supervision and for those specific objects directed by the Board of Trustees. President Durkee and the secretary-treasurer have appeared successively, and some times twice before the officers of the Department of the Interior, the Bureau of the Budget, the House Committee on Appropriations, and before the Senate Committee on Appropriations, watching step by step, the advance of the estimates. "It is, therefore, with very great pleasure and satisfaction that the fact is chroniced that the labors (Continued on page 5).

DR. DURKEE RELINQUISHES CONNECTIONS WITH THE CURRY SCHOOL
President J. Stanley Durkee, president of Howard University and for seven months, president of the Curry School of Expression of Boston, (white) announced this week his resignation from all connections with this school. Dr. Durkee, in addition to being president of the Curry School, was also a member of the Board of Directors. He was on the board for twenty-five years. According to a statement made to The Tribune Thursday, he has relinquished all connections with the Curry School. Dr. Durkee's connection with the Curry School has subjected him to much severe criticism during the past winter and spring, because Negro students were not admitted to this school. Therefore, he was president of two schools, one white and one colored at the same time and one of them would not admit students of the other. Dr. Durkee denied that he had neglected his duties at Howard. He stated that he has only made four trips to Boston on business for the Curry School, and stated that press reports to the contrary were incorrect.
KLAN EDITOR SAYS NEGRO IS INFERIOR RACE
(By WOW)
The Fellowship Forum, a national weekly paper devoted exclusively to the Ku Klux-Klan activities, in an editorial in its editoin of May 2nd, gives the official view of the Klan on the Negro Race.
The Editorial was inspired by an article in the Country Editor on "Will the North American Negro Survive?"
The article evidently aroused the wrath of the Kluxers and hence a reply was deemed necessary. The Klan editor of the Forum gives the public some enlightening discoveries on the capabilities of Negroes. The article states that it is impossible for the Negro race to even produce a man of the intelligence of a white man.
A Clergyman, Negro Worship and the Future
"Will the North American Negro Survive?" is the title of an article, excellently written and deeply learned, in the April issue of the Country Editor. But the question raised by the article is not, after all, whether the negro race will survive in this country, but whether it will pollute the blood stream of the white race here? And that is a question closely concerns all of us, a to which the final answer may not be given for a thousand years, but which, for each successive generation, must be stoutly answered in the negative. In order to make the thundering NO of our generation effective, attention must be given to some of the things mentioned by the writer of the Country Editor article, Arthur F. Paddock.
Mr. Paddock discussed what he calls "negro worship." He finds this worship to exist not alone in white men who debase themselves by cohabitation with negro women, but in the mental, or, as he calls it, emotional, attitude of an entirely different class of men who manifest "negro worship" in what the author calls "feats of obeisance." He refers specifically to a prominent New York Episcopal clergyman who recently said of the negro W. E. B. DuBois, "I know of no man belonging to any of the white races who is his superior either intellectually or spiritually."
Now, it happens that this mulatto, DuBois, is a militant advocate of a number of things that no man who is (Continued on Page 7)

$10,000 MRS. M. K. KELSON SAYS SHE WAS INJURED BY LETTER
Mrs. Margaret K. Kelson of 739 Irving Street, Northwest, has filed suits in the District Supreme Court against Ernest M. Dickerson, royal patron of Prince Hall Chapter, No. 5, Order of Eastern Star, for $10,000 damages for alleged libel.
Mrs. Kelson says that she was appointed by the presiding officer of Prince Hall Chapter to a position of honor and trust, but that Mr. Dickerson caused it to be suspected and believed that she was incompetent and unfit to carry on the duties of the office by the publication of the following alleged charge:
"I hereby feel constrained to prefer charges against Honored Lady Margaret K. Kelson in the matter following:
1. "Fostering confusion in the Chapter by going among its members attacking several of its officers, disturbing the peace and harmony of said Chapter and making it unpleasant for said officers to work with her.
2. "Defaming the character of several officers of the Chapter by signing and circulating or caused to be signed and circulated sometime between February 11, 1925, and February 20, 1925, certain libelous matter in the form of an affidavit alleging certain insults, although untrue, which reflects on my character and reputation and the reputation and character of all officers of the Chapter who have advanced during my terms as Royal Patron of Prince Hall Chapter. All of which I consider to be to the gaudal and disgrace of Prince Hall Chapter, No. 5, O. E. O. E. S. "Ernest M. Dickerson, Royal Patron." These charges were construed, she said, to mean that she had been guilty of perjury by the making of false statements under oath and was therefore dishonest and untrustworthy in the exercise of her duties as an officer and a member of Prince Hall Chapter. She alleges that she has been brought into public scandal, infamy and disgrace, has been suspended from her office and cited to show cause why she should not be expelled from the order. Attorneys Thomas O. King and Bruce L. Castelle appear for her.

HOWARD
Irvin C, Miller retuned to the How-
ard Theatre Monday night for a
week’s engagement-in a new musical
revue, “Dancing Days,” with bits from
his previous successes, “Broadway
Rastus” and “Liza.”
‘There is one thing that always
stands out-in the Irvin Miller produc-
tions. It is dancing. And that is
particularly true of his latest show.
‘The dancing carries it through.
Misses Aurora Greely ‘and Flo
Brown are the bright stars of this
musical revue. Of course, Irvin Miller
himself, Blanche Thompson, and Tal-
lie De Gaston are not to be over-
looked. But Misses Greely and Brown
stand out and add luster to the’ show.
‘The musical hit is “Sweet Georgia
Brown,” by Misses Greely and Brown
and the girls, inttodueing the
“Charleston.” The waltz number by
Irvin C. Miller and Blanche Thomp-
son also went big. A monologue and
song, “West Indies Blue,” by Tallie
De Gaston got him an encore, Til-
lian Lorraine stepped out’ from: the
chorus and put over a “blues” num-
ber.

SENTIMENT AND GROUP EGOTISM
The editor-presumably G. F. Moor weekly published here, had his fall an article under the heading, "Will survive?" which appeared recently he felt called upon to denounce editor and those who hold similar view the Country Editor.
or—presumably G. F. Moore—of the Fellow published here, had his false race pride so under the heading, "Will the North Ame which appeared recently in the Country led upon to denounce editorially the writer who hold similar views; and attempt Editor.
The editor—presumably G. F. Moore—of the Fellowship Forum, a weekly published here, had his false race pride so wounded by an article under the heading, "Will the North American Negro Survive?" which appeared recently in the Country Editor, that he felt called upon to denounce editorially the writer of the article and those who hold similar views; and attempted to refute the Country Editor. Among other things Moore said:
"The question raised by the archetype the negro race will survive in the will pollute the blood stream of it. It is quite inconceivable that an attribute to a mongrel of white race equal to those of the most intelligent is simply foolish who will contend strain can produce intellectual white races. Scientific investigation that such a thing is impossible."
Here we have a case of a representative has allowed his superiority complex representative of a group which is a strain its assumption of the inherent ability to keep things aright—incidently, as opinion that by Divine right his kind from now on, forever. This belief him that he can no longer be satisfied must turn to his egotistical yearning and his group are important—he says must magnify that importance.
Oppression has done much to struggle for existence and for free the Race and making Moore and hisLEX. The present domination of the uncarious and conversely the expressive easy. Domination by Moore's good self-respect which is growing direct ear of losing control.
"Scientific investigation has clear Negro has an inferior mental ability. The fact is he has misunderstood have added the prefix "pseudoplain itself. A person in Virginia Negro blood is politically, socially Negro; but not so scientifically. A such a postoperative error in classification a bucket one-sixteenth full of water with flour and call the substance an scientist does not consider group of supremacy.
The worst for Moore and his group ready manifest that the Negro is going the white man's religion and is ash a religion which is more beneficial he is gradually connecting the links of sort of cultural surplus and asserting men.
It is therefore germane that we, in need, should adapt ourselves to the man and prevent our sensibilities our intellect and will. It is better not median to avert or forestall an should be of interest to him to know own a group of young white men for young Negroes to camp with them same privileges and accepting them white member, thus demonstrating that not completely obsessed by the way Speaking of "mongrels"—meaning the blood of two or more race now far must the reinforcement from the continued before the mongrelity "Mr. Moore himself should be particular; for his patronymic (Moore, from many generations ago, one of his pardons a mongrel, and a step or two fur was evidently an unmixed Moor.
question raised by the article is not, after the Negro race will survive in this country, but indicate the blood stream of the white race has white inconceivable that any well informed white face to a mongrel of white and black intellect to those of the most intellectual white man. Yet foolish who will contend that, at this time, can produce intellectual giants equal to the races. Scientific investigation has clearly dealt with a thing is impossible."
I have a case of a representative of group O and his superiority complex to become an activist of a group which is in a seething struggle of the inherent right of assisting things aright—incidently, as they are. He is not by Divine right his kind is destined to run, forever. This belief has become so much that he can no longer be satisfied in his person to his egotistical yearnings to justify its group are important—he says, Divinely so—toify that importance.
Mon has done much to strengthen the Negro for existence and for freedom is gradually and making Moore and his group's position present domination of the lighter races and conversely the exploitation of the O. Domination by Moore's group is creating a sect which is growing directly in proportioning control.
The investigation has clearly demonstrated an inferior mental ability, according to the fact he has misunderstood his informer he added the prefix "pseudo," then his state self. A person in Virginia who possesses food is politically, socially and pseudo-scientifically not so scientifically. A true scientist would posterous error in classification, no more than one-sixteenth full of water and fill the remainder and call the substance a bucket of water does not consider group egos as a defense.
Just for Moore and his group is yet to comprehend that the Negro is gradually but surely man's religion and is strenuously trying to which is more beneficent and less disjointly connecting the links of his tradition, and cultural surplus and asserting himself as a man.
Before germane that we, irrespective of race, would adapt ourselves to the attitude of the O and prevent our sensibilities from running right and will. It is better now that Moore's group of young white men from a Y.M.C.A. ropes to camp with them, according the O andleges and accepting them on the same leaber, thus demonstrating that the younger completely obsessed by the white supremacy of the O of "mongrels"—meaning persons having blood of two or more races—raises the question the reinforcement from the blood of O and before the mongrelity "runs out," as the O himself should be particularly interested in his patronymic (Moore, from Moor) showcations ago, one of his paternal ancestors of Ogrel, and a step or two further back, in his truly an unmixed Moor.
"The question raised by the article is not, after all, whether the negro race will survive in this country, but whether it will pollute the blood stream of the white race here? . . . . It is quite inconceivable that any well informed man should attribute to a mongrel of white and black intellectual powers equal to those of the most intellectual white man. That man is simply foolish who will contend that, at this time, a negroid strain can produce intellectual giants equal to those of the white races. Scientific investigation has clearly demonstrated that such a thing is impossible."
Here we have a case of a representative of group egotism who has allowed his superiority complex to become an obsession, a representative of a group which is in a seething struggle to retain its assumption of the inherent right of assisting the Divine to keep things aright—incidently, as they are. He is of the false opinion that by Divine right his kind is destined to rule the world from now on, forever. This belief has become so much a part of him that he can no longer be satisfied in his personal ego, but must turn to his egotistical yearnings to justify its being. He and his group are important—he says, Divinely so—therefore, he must magnify that importance.
Oppression has done much to strengthen the Negro race. The struggle for existence and for freedom is gradually awakening the Race and making Moore and his group's position more complex. The present domination of the lighter races is becoming precarious and conversely the exploitation of the darker races less easy. Domination by Moore's group is creating in the Negro a self-respect which is growing directly in proportion to Moore's fear of losing control.
"Scientific investigation has clearly demonstrated" that the Negro has an inferior mental ability, according to Moore's assertion. The fact is he has misunderstood his information. He should have added the prefix "pseudo," then his statement would explain itself. A person in Virginia who possesses one-sixteenth Negro blood is politically, socially and pseudo-scientifically a Negro; but not so scientifically. A true scientist would not make such a preposterous error in classification, no more than he would fill a bucket one-sixteenth full of water and fill the remaining space with flour and call the substance a bucket of water. The real scientist does not consider group egos as a defense for white supremacy.
The worst for Moore and his group is vet to come. It is already manifest that the Negro is gradually but surely discarding the white man's religion and is strenuously trying to establish a religion which is more beneficent and less discriminating. He is gradually connecting the links of his tradition, accumulating a sort of cultural surplus and asserting himself as a man amongst men.
It is therefore germane that we, irrespective of race, color or creed, should adapt ourselves to the attitude of the brotherhood of man and prevent our sensibilities from running rampant with our intellect and will. It is better now that Moore's group strike a median to avert or forestall an impending fall. Perhaps it would be of interest to him to know that in a nearby Virginia town a group of young white men from a Y.M.C.A. invited four young Negroes to camp with them, according the Negroes the same privileges and accepting them on the same level as each white member, thus demonstrating that the younger generation is not completely obsessed by the white supremacy delusion.
Speaking of "mongrels"—meaning persons having in their veins the blood of two or more races—raises the question as to how far must the reinforcement from the blood of one side only be continued before the mongrelity "runs out," as the saying goes. Mr. Moore himself should be particularly interested in this question; for his patronymic (Moore, from Moor) shows that not so many generations ago, one of his paternal ancestors was what he calls a mongrel, and a step or two further back, in his line, there was evidently an unmixed Moor.

He must be convinced that centralized authority is essential to the Nation.

The Thrills of Uncertainty, or the Curses of Man
Addressed Especially to my Howard Colleagues
There is no period of life in which one can boast of being immune to the influence of peculiar temptations and dangers. Were I to specify the period, which, of all others, is attended with the greatest peril and most needs to be watched and guarded, I would fix upon that which covers your struggle for an education in college. Indeed, this is the forming, fixing period, the spring season of disposition and habit; and it is during this season, more than any other, that the character assumes its permanent shape and color, and that you are wont to shape your course for time and eternity.
This is one of the most important and perilous periods of your whole existence. During this period, the passions, budding and hastening to ripeness, become impatient of restraint, and eager for gratification. The imagination, unchecked by experience, paints the world in false and fascinating
perience, paints colors, and teaches your bosom to The restless desire for independence in the mind; the disposition to the counsel and authority and to the social impulse is felt.

colors, and teaches your bosom to sigh after forbidden pleasures. The restless desire for independence and self-control springs up in the mind: the disposition to throw off the restraints of parental counsel and authority and to think and to act for yourselves. The social impulse is felt. You look around for companions and friends; the calling for life is chosen; the principles of action are adopted; habits are acquired; and those connections in business are formed, which usually decide the character and fix the conditions both for this and the future world.
Here the path to respectability, to usefulness, and to happiness, is open before you; here, also, is the path to infamy and wretchedness. A choice is to be made; you are to enter upon that path which in all probability you will pursue through life, and which will terminate in Heaven or Hell. Such are the conditions that confront you, encompass you, and so little are you aware of them that there is great reason to fear that you will mistake the road to happiness and usefulness, and wander into one of the million ways that lead to ruin.
You are, in general, but little aware of the danger which attends the playing with temptations. You readily perceive the degrading and destructive tendency of the grosser vices; but you are slow to believe that there are certain dispositions and habits which inevitably lead to those vices and their consequent degradation and ruin. Hence, while you shun the more open and flagrant offenses, you are not afraid to venture upon what are deemed little sins,—upon slight deviations from duty,—occasional indulgence of the appetite and passions. There is no more fatal mistake than this. It is the one cause of ruin of the characters and souls of men. All vicious habits take their origin in what are considered little sins.

CULTIVATES MUSICAL VOICES In this golden age of exploration into the subconscious and the supernormal psychologists and psychoanalysts have overlooked very little, if any part, of us, and now they have hit upon a new point of attack—our voice. By the voice shall we then be judged. It is the keynote of character, and the old adage to the effect that actions speak louder than words is in the discard, gone into the limbo of those other disapproved saws concerning the early bird and the worm, the rolling stone and the moss, and the rest.
A noted singer says, "It is an abomination, a blot on our educational system that even high school graduates, who come forth supposedly primed with all sorts of special knowledge, come also with voices uncultured, discordant and harsh, to say nothing of an indifferent observance of the rules of English grammar. Another Englishman says we spend money so favishly in the cultivation of the singing voice here in America, but the speaking voice, the common medium of communication, is allowed to go neglected, with practically no attention paid to it at all. If pleasant voices were a mere end in themselves their training would be justified, but

just think how much other good follows in the train of voice cultivation. Considered physiologically and psychologically, it alone is one of the best mediums for making good citizens. In the first place, the cultivation of a good speaking voice renders it necessary to breathe deeply and rhythmically. This sends the blood, properly aerated, through the arteries, makes red corpuscles, strengthens the heart action, etc. Secondly, it automatically induces an upright posture, brings the chest up and out, the shoulders back, abdomen in and head properly poised, and, by the same token, just naturally makes for better moral and mental, as it does for physical health. And a healthy moral, mental, and physical being is a happier one and a better citizen.
But how, perhaps you ask, can this cultivation of a speaking voice be arrived at? I can tell you one important step in three words: 'Watch your speech,' and then, I think, I shall add another admonition, 'Watch the speech of others.' By the agreeable or disagreeable effect upon you, you will learn what to cultivate and what to avoid. The rules of pleasantly modulated speaking voices and of correct English are really very simple if one will give a thought to them after certain instructions in fundamentals.

HEROIC NEGRO BOYS
| The color of one’s skin has nothing
to do with the bravery or good in a
person. It is seldom that we: read
stories of Negro men and boys- who
are heroes. Not because Negroes are
not heroic, but because the papers,
other than our own, do not publish
such news. But here are some, cases
where real, sure enough, live, Negro
boys have been real, sure enough, live
heroes,
Boyce Lindsay, a sixteen-year old
boy at Spartansburg, S. €., May 28,
1910, saved an eleven-year-old_ white
‘child from being run over by a train.
He received a bronze medal and
52,000 to be used for his education.
Elbert Gray, sixteen-year old school
boy. at Canton, Texas, saved a two-
year old child from drowning-yin a
well thirteen inches in diameter and
sixty feet deep, which | contained
eighteen inches of water. He re-
| ceived ‘a bronze medal and: $2;000°for
educational purposes as needed.
| Nolden Townsell, age sixteen, saved
a-four-year old child from being run
down by an automobile truck-at-Waeo,
Texas, February, 1st, 1912, He re-
ceived $2,000 for his edueation and)»
bronze medal.
Beecher Roberts, a seventeen-year-
old farm hand, helped Thomas Ash-
jevatt from a G5sfoot, deep, caved-in
‘well at Tyler, Texas, April 16, 1912
‘He received « bronze -medal-and $500
‘for w worthy purpose as needed. Rob-
jerts reached the well after two white
men had been drowned in the well try-
|ing to remoye the sand whieh partially
[covered Ashcraft. He was asked to
assist. which he immediately did; de-
‘scended into the well, removed some
| sand from around-Asheraft’s legs, and
then tied the rope to Asheraft. An
other rope was lowered to Roberts
jand both were drawn up.
| Woodson Graham, thirteen-year ol
{school boy, at Grenada, Miss., June 2.
1913, died attempting to save Arling:
ton Buntin, another boy, from drown
ing in Yalobushes River.
BOYHOOD OF BENJAMIN
RANNEKER
‘This is the story of a boyy whose
great-grand-father was an African
(king.
| Benjamin Banneker © wits” born ir
Mayland, ten miles from the city of
Baltimore, on the ninth day of No
vember, 1731. His parents were free
and owned their farm near the Patap
seo: River.
It was a common custom of the
early days of America to be instruct:
ted with the Bible as a text book
| hich proved a means of learning the
| child religious history and to act as
| speller and:primer, Benjamin was
first instructed to read through this
medium, being taught by his grand-
mother.
| He later: went to school which
‘both white and: colored: children at
te nd, and of course, was taught by «
white teacher. This school was very
|small and not so greatly attended, a=
the school system was not very: oldip
those days.
Little Benjamin was a very serious
and determined scholar. He was anx-
ious and’ apt. He cared little for th:
games the childeen played and he sel-
mn took part-in them. It was. gen-
erally said of him that: “all his. de-
light was to dive into his books.”
Not being able to secure very many
books to read he sought information
through | conversation. and. observa-
tion. He was always alert to all. of
the local news, and his queries led him
to valuable information.
Besides being diligent in studying
Ihe was very industrious and helped
his father in all his work, He was
alert, active, progressive and willing
in performing the hard: tasks of the
farm.
He was partial to mathematics an¢
soon beeame the boast of his home
town as being the brightest boy for
miles-around. His memory was great
and he used his grammar. properly
and understood the things he talked
bout By nature: he was. kind, gen-
erous, humane and he was obedient
to his parents.
Being a boy of such qualities we
can easily imagine him as having
dreams of doing great things when he
became a man, and who knows but

longing for better circumstances that

The Scout Motto
Among: the very-first things « boy
must: know to®become a scout are the
scout law, salute; sign, oath, motto,
and the-signifieance of the badge.
| The mottoof the boy scouts is Be
Prepared, and the badge of the boy
scouts is a copyrighted design with
this motto, “Be prepared,” on a scroll
at its base,
The motto, “Be Prepared,” means
that the scout is always in a state
of readiness in mind and body to do
his duty; to be prepared in mind, by
having disciplined himself to be obe-
dient, and also by having thought
out beforehand any accident or situs
ition that may occur, so that he may
"know the right thing to do at the right
|moment, and be willing to do it; to
‘be prepared in body by making him-
|self strong and active and able to do
ithe right. thing at the right moment
|and then to do its
Significance of the Seout
Kadge
‘The Scout Badge is not meant to re-
present either the fleur-de-lis or an
arrowhead, although it looks like
[both, It is really the sign of the
|North on the mariner’s compass, in a
‘slightly changed form. This sign js
as old as the history of navisation.
|The Chinese claim its use among them
as early as 2634 B.C., and we have
definite information that it was used
at sea by them as early as 300 A.D.
Mareo Polo brought the compass to
Europe on his return from: Cathay.
The sign of the north on the compas:
gradually came to respresent the
north, and pioneers, trappers, woods-
men and scouts, because of this, took
it for their emblem.
Through centuries of use, changes
have been made in it, Now we have
taken its shape as that of our badge,
und have added to the face of it the
American Eagle and Shield, and two
stars, to make it look. more distin-
guished.
‘The stars are the seout’s guide by
night, as they have been of mariners,
und are typical of the outdoor life of
every true scout who loves: to sleep
under the open sky. The star sym-
bolizes the ideals of light, truth and
knowledge, which are fundamental in
the scout movement.
“This trefoil badge of the-scouts is
now used, with slight local changes, in
almost every civilized country as the
mark of brotherhood, for good citizen-
ship, and friendliness.
‘The trefoil refers to the three points
in the Seout Oath.
Its scroll is turned up at the ends
like @ scout's mouth, because he does
his duty with a smile and willingly.
‘The knot is to remind the scout to
do a good turn to some one daily. The
knot is the simple or overhand knot.
The arrowhead part is worn by. the
tenderfoot. The scroll part only. is
worn: by the second elass scout. The
badge worn by the first class is the
whole badge.
: WILLIAM TILLMAN—HERO
| In June, 1861, the Federal Schooner
4S. J. Waring,” was captured by the
Confederates. Three of her crew were
retained, one being. William Tillman,
a Negro. He was told he would be
sold on reaching Charleston. Alon«

tured the mate, secured his revolver
and drove the other four of the prize

He then armed two other colored
men after onchaining them, put. the
enemy in irons and headed for New
York. Encountering a storm he
forced the revels by threats of instant
death to help man the schooner, ar-
rivingin New York five days, later.

The Thomas Frazier Co., 723 T St., N.W. Funeral Directors and Undertakers' Establishment
wishes to announce to its many patrons and friends that during the eight years that it has been in business our slogan has been and still is "Efficiency and Service."
As to our efficiency and service during that time, we can refer you to those families who have been our patrons in their hour of great distress.
We have never made or attempted to make the prices of our funerals. We leave that entirely to those whom we serve.
We think that every normal family knows better what they want to spend and are able to spend on their deceased loved ones, than any disinterested undertaker could know; therefore we leave the subject of cost entirely up to you.
We do say, however, that we handle the same line of goods that any or all of our competitors handle, and we can assure you that none of them can or will display more patience or take more time in showing you through spacious show rooms and helping you to make the cost of your selection whatever YOU want to make it, and not what WE want you to make it.
