Robinson, Mrs. Irene Brown, of 1015 P Street, Northwest, filed suit for divorce from her husband, George Thomas Brown, Red Cap Porter at Union Station. The suit was filed Saturday, August 8th. In her bill, Mrs. Brown states that they were married on the 25th day of March, 1917, in Alexandria, Va., and that she and her husband lived together until April 22, 1925 when her husband deserted her. Continuing, Mrs. Brown states that she faithfully discharged all the duties of a wife in a manner designated to bring happiness into the home; that her husband for five or six months prior to April 22nd, the day when he deserted her, began to stay out late nights and neglect her and their child. That after her husband had stayed out for sometime, he told her that he could not go on the way he was going and that he wanted his freedom. They then decided to take two weeks to think matters over. At the expiration of this time he packed up all the furniture and sent it home to the wife's mother. After promising to contribute regularly to the support of the wife and child he then deserted them. She asked for alimony pending final hearing of the case. LIBERIAN PROF.

SEEKS DIVORCE CHARGESCRUELTY Alleging cruel treatment, Mrs Lessie Hedgepeth has filed suit in the District Supreme Court for a limited divorce from her husband, Dennis Hedgepeth. Attorney Charles S. Hill represents her. Mrs. Hedgepeth charges that on July 4, 1925, her spouse blacked her eye when she inquired where he was going when he came home to dress, after, which she says, he informed that he was going out to ride with a girl, and if he found her home upon his return he would kill her. The defendant is employed at Leew's Palace Theatre and is said to earn $30 a week. The couple were married in Raleigh, N. C., June 21, 1916. They have two children, Ruth, 8 years old, and Roberta, 7 years old. The Washington Tribune THE CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY, FIRST ST., S. E. The PUBLISHED WEEKLY Host Pa order. A. F. OF L. HEAD BANS LABOR MEET IN CHICAGO, ILL. "Communism in America is comparable to the boll weevil in the cotton fields," said William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor today in warning Negro members of trade unions not to attend the American Negro Labor Congress called by the communists to meet in Chicago, October 25. He said that the American Federation of Labor "has not and will not approve of such a congress." He also declared that the purpose of the originators of the congress was to mislead the colored men into believing that "all their grievances will be remedied by overturning the government of the United States and establishing a soviet republic." "During the past few days I have received a number of letters and telegrams asking if the American Federation of Labor approves of the American Negro Labor Congress called by the workers (communist) party to meet in Chicago, October, 25," said President Green. "The American Federation of Labor has not and will not approve of such a congress. It will not be held to benefit the Negro but to instill into the lives of that race the most pernicious doctrine—race hatred. "Glittering phrases are used to stir the colored men, one of them being: 'Negroes did not come into the world with saddles on their backs nor the whites with spurs on their heels.' "The Negroes are led to believe that the dark races of the world are in rebellion against the whites and that all they need to do is to form an American labor congress and all social, political and economic discrimination' will be wiped out. "The originators of the congress have headquarters in Chicago. They conduct a number of communist organizations with interlocking directories that work under the direction of Moscow. "Communism in America is comparable to the boll weevil in the cotton fields. Both are importations and equally injurious. "While the convention to be held is called the American Negro labor congress, behind the purpose of its originators is to mislead the colored men into believing that all their grievances will be remedied by overturning the government of the United States and establishing a soviet republic—otherwise the dictatorship of the proletariat. Race hatred will be encouraged to bring about this end. "A number of unions composed of colored men have been deceived into sending delegates. They have been led to believe they will attend a convention of union Negroes. The fact is that the convention was called by men who are not members of trade unions or if they are they do not attend the unions of which they are members. The organized labor movement is expelling communists as rapidly as they are found out. "Although there cannot be more than a few hundred communists in the country, they give an impression, because of their noise-making propaganda, that there are millions." "I wish to warn all Negro members of trade unions that they are being led into a trap that will eventually be their undoing." WASHINGTON, D.C. SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1925 KLANSMEN DRENCHED WHILE PRAYING FOR RAIN TO STOP. WANT MORE JIM CROW LAWS. Military Units Held in Reserve. Policemen Carried Batons Well! It is over and the tension is relieved. The Ku Klux Klan came to Washington last Saturday for its first parade in the history of America. From the North, East, West and South they came by the thousands. All of the last minute efforts to block the parade failed. Full credit for the march should go to the District Commissioners, who with a few Klan officials and followers, mostly from out of town, are the only ones who wanted the parade. That no serious trouble occurred, is fortunate, but the tension was the greatest ever in the history of Washington. All day Saturday, the situation was just like a calm before a storm. The whole city was an armed camp. Just the slightest mis-cue or disorder would have resulted in one of the bloodest riots in the history of America. The Klan expected trouble, and according to reports, came prepared for it. As one of the Klan speakers at the Sunday night meeting in Virginia said: "We would have marched up Pennsylvania Avenue at any cost." The citizens of Washington were expecting trouble and likewise had prepared for it. Even the commissioners themselves expected trouble and also prepared for it. Every military unit in this section was held in readiness as well as every policeman and detective. For the first time in years, local policemen guarded a parade with full equipment. That is, they wore no white gloves and carried their batons in preparation for any kind of an emergency. Every member on the force was either on active duty on the street or in reserve. The reserves were massed in the various precinct stations under the command of Inspector William S. Shelby and were held in readiness for duty on a minute's notice. The police acted on the theory that they did not know what they might encounter and they wished to be prepared for the worst. Nearly 1000 soldiers located at Washington Barracks and Fort Myer were ordered to "stand by." No soldiers were permitted to leave their reservation. In addition to these soldiers, the 121st Engineers were ordered to mobilize. While the mobilization was under the guise of practicie drill it was too closely connected with the other preparation to be otherwise construed. In addition to the above forces, marines from Quantico were brought here to guard the Treasury, Bureau of Engraving and other important places, just the same as they were guarded during the war. The parade is over and Washington is glad of it. The dangers connected with it are too great for it to ever be repeated here again. It is grossly unfair to local citizens to have their lives and property placed in jeopardy just because an organization wants to show its teeth to the world. The Negro, Catholic and Jewish population constitute a majority in Washington and this majority cer- S.C. WESTERFIELD ANSWERS WIFE'S CHARGES IN BILL The marital troubles of Mrs. Rachel C. Westerfield and her husband, Samuel C. Westerfield, have assumed a triangular form and resulted in Mrs. Inez E. Woodford, of 736 Kenyon Street, Northwest, through Attorney Joseph T. Settle, filing a suit against her husband, Eugean B. Woodford, for an absolute divorce. In filing his answer to the suit of his wife for a limited divorce, Mr. Westerfield, who is also represented by Attorney Settle, filed a cross bill charging his wife with infidelity and asking for an absolute divorce. He named Eugean B. Woodford as the co-respondent. Mr. Westerfield alleges that his wife met the co-respondent at 736 Kenyon Street, Northwest, on May 30, 1925. This allegation is made the ground for an absolute divorce in the suit brought by Mrs. Woodford against her husband. She names Mrs. Westfield as the co-respondent in her suit and makes the same charge. She adds, however, that this improper meeting was at her home in her absence and that her husband and Mrs. Westfield have been guilty of misconduct 'at divers, other places and times to her unknown." Mrs. Westfield is the daughter of the late Mrs. Annie E. Waddleton, who was prominent in church affairs in the District of Columbia. Mrs. Westfield is employed at the Government Printing Office where Mr. Woodford also works. Mr. Westfield is said to be an electrical contractor, although he denies this in his answer and says that he is employed by an electrical firm at a salary of $25 a week. At one time, Mr. Westfield was engaged in the practice of law in Chicago, Ill. He also taught at Western University, Quindaro, Kansas. He alleges that at one time about four months ago when his wife did not know he was in the house he overheard her discussing with some girl friend the fact that she did not want her husband. Mr. Westerfield further charges that his wife has taunted him about his color and age, has "They say that the klan appeals to race prejudice, but that it not true. The klan stands for unity of the race. The glory of the black man is in his black skin, and the glory of the white man is in his white skin. As long as the black remain black and the white remain white, all is well. But when men overstep the bounds of race and create a race of mongrels, there is war. The mingling of blood always causes wars. "The klan is determined that the races of men shall remain as God cursed and abused him, "using the (Continued on page 5) tainly should be heard before any more permits are given such infamous organizations as the Ku Klux Klan. Type of Membership Causes Comment. One Negro In Parade. The greatest demonstration of intolerance ever held in a land dedicated to tolerance was staged here last Saturday when the hordes of the Ku Klux Klan marched down historic Pennsylvania Avenue. Unimpressive The parade was huge but not impressive. To the tune of hymns, more than 20,000 white-robed figures, in full Klan regalia, save the masks, and with arms folded, marched down the historic parade-ground. Three solitary horsemen, mounts and riders garbed in the ghostly vestments of the Klan, led the procession. They were followed by acting superintendent of police Evans, with a detail of mounted policemen. Then came imperial wizard Evans, of Dallas, Texas, the head of the order, in a purple robe. He was surrounded by klegles and dragons. Back of them came the motley legions of Klansmen—men, women and children. From physical appearances they had come from the vilest elements of American life. Ignorance, if any characteristic, marked them. There was not in the whole procession of Klansmens the prototype of the intelligent, clean-cut American. Crowds Apathetic The crowd that viewed the parade were apathetic. Enthusiasm among spectators was apparently lacking, and there was but little applause as the monotonous figures in white went by. Official Washington was not in the lines that extended on both sides of the line of march from the Capitol to the Treasury, nor was there any official recognition of the presence of the Klansmen except that embodied in the police regulations and permit to parade. President Coolidge remained at Swampscott, and but few members of Congress were here. Even civilian Washington appeared to avoid recognition of the Klan. The usual decorations and signs of welcome displayed in shop windows and on buildings on occasions of great gatherings in the Capital were entirely lacking. There was not a single sign of welcome displayed in the whole city. Negro in Parade Scattered among the spectators were quite a number of colored persons. The greatest number watched the parade at the intersection of 7th and the Avenue. One colored man participated in the parade. He was a relic of the old anti-bellum days and drove a coach, in which three women, dressed in the costumes of the Civil War period, rode. On the slopes of the Washington Monument grounds the Klansmen gathered for night services. It was there that Klansmen, praying for the rain to stop, received a drenching. Race Prejudice While the rain was putting the Klansmen to rout, the Rev. H. A. Gulledge, of Columbus, Ohio, delivered an address in which he said: (Continued on page 6, column 2) BE Girl Changes S Negro Assault Names Promin SAMARITANS TO GATHER HERE FOR BIG CONVENTION The local committee on arrangements for the entertaining of the Sixth Biennial Session of the Right Worthy Noble Grand Lodge, Independent Order of Good Samaritans and Daughters of Samaria, which meets here the week commencing Monday, August 24th.

WHITE Story About ting Her and nent White Boy Mary Price, a 16-year-old white girl of Silver Springs, Md., on her return home from a picture show last Saturday night, alleged to her people that a Negro had attacked and assaulted her. She stated that she had been held prisoner for two hours. Montgomery County officers were immediately notified and a search for a Negro was begun. Near the scene where the act was supposed to have been committed, a pocketbook containing a picture of a colored woman and several addresses in Washington was found. Immediately, detectives in Washington, accompanied by Maryland officers called at these addresses. Several people were questioned and one arrested. However, after further questioning, he was released, only, however, after the girl had refused to identity him. After continuing the investigation through to Monday, Montgomery authorities began questioning the Price girl. Finally she, according to the sheriff, admitted that she had been attacked by a white boy, Robert S. Parkhurst, son of a prominent Berwyn family. On a warrant sworn out by Sheriff Gingell, the boy was arrested and lodged in the county jail at Rockville. He is being held in jail awaiting a trial as this charge is non-bailable in Maryland. After the boy was arrested and the girl carried to Rockville for further questioning, the girl tried to recount on this story also. The boy declares his innocence. The girl expressed the hope, according to Montgomery County officials, that severe punishment would not be met to him as she and (Continued on page 6) SHILOH CHURCH STARTS BIG TASK OF REBUILDING During the week just closing, the pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church, Rev.

AUGUST 15. 1925 Story of My Trip To the Holy Land By Rev. M. J. Key (Special for the Tribune) Winner of Mme. C. J. Walker Co.'s Trip to Holy Land Contest (Continued from Aug. 1st) After a brief stop at the Hotel D'Angleterre, I left for Milan. At the border I met my friends the custom officials. They could not speak English so a sign printed in Italian, English and French was shown me. Following the English column I shook my head and the examiner waved me back to my rtain. Simpson Pass, a tunnel thirteen miles, awaited me. Napoleon and Caesar traveled this route. After several hours traveling I arrived in Milan. A cabman rushed me to my hotel, the Du Nord. I missed the matched papering and furniture of Paris and the spacious rooms of Geneva. I had often heard the old adage, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." Milan is a city of churches, galleries and statutes. Hannibal once stood outside of this city. The old arch of Triumph where Napoleon was crowned king of Italy still stands. The natives eye you closely and will surround you if you pause. The police carry swordsfl. Italy is no place for a weak-hearted person but after you become reconciled you realize that the country is safe. CAIRO After visiting Italy, a land of bright skies and sunshine, I sailed across the Mediterranean to Alexandria on the S. S. Helouan of the Lloyd Triestox Line. The vessel was small but had a gymnasium, deck games and movies at night. For hours I sailed along the sandy shores of Greece and finally passed Crete. The famous island reminded me of St. Paul's trip to Rome. The great sea was dotted with sail boats and steamers; daily I sighted them with my field glasses as they would creep over the curvature of the water. A most interesting sight at sea is to see the sun set. Alexandria Illustrations that Help Sell This service we are confident, will result in greatly increased business for every advertiser who takes advantage of it. You will be better able to tell the people of Washington and vicinity about what you have to sell or what you want to buy. And you can put your message across in a concise, easily-understood manner that will be pleasing to readers of The Tribune, and most satisfactory to you in the greater results obtained. Potomac 1667 one of the leading ports of the world is a noisy, hustling and crowded city. I was glad to land in Africa. Money changers, porters and vendors abound. It requires five hours to run to Cairo. A storm coming across delayed us. About eleven o'clock at night I arrived in the capital city. Mr. William Brooks who writes for the Defender as Billy Brooks met me and accompanied me to the Hotel National where I stopped. The great pyramid and Sphinx still guard the desert. The spots where Moses was found and where Joseph and Mary first landed was pointed out. The people, like in Palestine, wear the same clothing which was worn during the age of Pharoh. There are still slaves and the Nile still flows to the sea. The people are mostly Mohammedans, and men have as many wives as they can take care of. You can travel by train, donkey, camel, carriage or auto. All of the modern inventions are used. Centuries ago it required 10 or 12 days to go from Cairo to Jerusalem, now the trip can be made in twenty-four hours. I traveled to Kantara on the banks of the Suez Canal in a daycoach and from Kantara to the Holy City I took a pullman. The pullmans have the sign Des Wagons on them. To approach Jerusalem for the first time is almost indescribable. From the lone station you motor into the city through the Joppa gate. The streets are narrow, crowded and lined with vendors. Water is still carried in skin bottles. The poorer natives go bare-footed and begging is legal. Lepers are still without Zion gate. There is only one laundry which charges you ten cents for each piece. If you have a pair of sox, suit of underwear and six handkerchiefs your bill will be twenty plasters or one dollar. On Mt. Zion is the tomb of David and the room where the Lord's Supper was instituted. On Mt. Moriah is the foundation of the famous Temple. Lonely Gethsemane is visited daily by crowds. Mt. Olive is marked showing the places where our Lord prayed, taught, grieved and ascended. There are 165,000 persons in the Holy City today, mostly Moslems. The people live in colonies. Water and fruit are looked after by the English government. The country is adequately policed. People go to bed and rise with the sun. Bethlehem, the birth-place of Jesus, is the largest Christian community in the land. The Well of the Wise Men is still on the roadside near Rachel's Tomb and the Shepherd's Field, once trod by Ruth, David and the shepherds was visited. Ain Karim, (Spring of Generosity), the birth-place of John the Baptist, still has its crystal fountain from which his parents drank. The wilderness of Judea is as desolate as the day John preached repentance. The Dead Sea drinks from the Jordan and snores her contents in the form of mist toward heaven. The walls which crumbled before Joshua have not arisen; the Mount of Temptation stands behind Jericho while hundred of natives drink from the fountain cured by Elisha. The Samaritans still worship upon the mountains; Sychar is growing beside Joseph's tomb and Jacob's well flows as purely and freely as ever. Nazareth, the home of Our Redeemer, is a thriving city. The synagogue where He read from the book of the law, the carpenter shop and the fountain from which Mary drank are highly reverenced. Mt. Hatton where our Saviour delivered His famous sermon is crowded with sheep and shepherds, each knowing his leader. It is interesting to hear a shepherd make a strange noise and to see certain sheep follow him; then later others follow their shepherds. One day I saw one with a young lamb and I remembered Jesus' words about the good shepherd. As I motored along the road and saw the farmers planting, I was impressed as never before with the parable about the sower. While in Galilee I visited the historic sea and rode upon its bosom. I thought of Jesus as I saw the native fishermen; his walking upon the sea and the winds and the waves that obeyed Him. Before turning my eyes westwards I went up on Mt. Carmel, visited its noted monastery; saw the spot where the sacrifice was offered. From Mt. Carmel you can see Mt. Hermon in the distance covered with snow; Mt. Tabor where the transfiguration took place; Samaria noted for its sin; the Kishon flowing below; the plain of Esdraelon on one side and Sharon on the other, and the Mediterranean in the west, all of which is sufficient to make the evolutionist and infidel accept The Apostles' Creed.

The Government Printing Office nine is out in front in the Departmental League race and will win the title in that loop with ease. The same thing is true respecting the LeDroit Tigers in the Union League race. Both of these clubs have good teams and a series between them at the close of the league season to determine the District championship would go big. We had thought that tennis was a game for ladies and gentlemen, but we are forced by the language used by Edgar G. Brown in his last syndicated article to the view that all are not gentlemen who play the racquet game. It is all right to criticize a style of play in any sport, but such criticism should not be in billingsgate, and especially is this true when it is made by a player and reflects upon an opponent, whose name is mentioned. Another suspension by the American Tennis Association for conduct unbecoming a gentleman might have the effect of making him conform to the rules of gentlemanly conduct. Which style of play should be used more—the hit and run or the sacrifice? That is a difficult question. It depends upon the teams. Some teams are great at advancing runners through the hit and run; others believe in the sacrifice. The hit and run is all right when it works perfect. But when a batter hits into a double play, it is all wrong in the opinion of the fans. The hit and run involves more of a chance, but it is the only way for a club ordinarily to come from behind and win. The sacrifice is all right when the game is close and a team is playing safe. Use both the hit and run and the sacrifice, and a team will keep its opponents guessing. Occasionally, however, a smart pitcher will cross a team trying to pull either play. That is what makes baseball the national pastime—the uncertainty of the outcome. --- New York's Greatest Dance Fad BARGAIN 1c DANCE A BOX OF CANDY to every lady, and a BOX OF CIGARETTES to every gentleman On the Pavilion before 9 p.m. Silas Carter's Band of 9 Pieces EDGAR G.

Letters to the Editor Dear Editor: I have just had my first peep at the Klux birds, and judging from their general appearance (unrobed) the name "Ku Klux" is an unenviable and appropriate distinction for them. It's next to certain that the moral effect of their visit here, upon humanity, will be finally more devastating to the peace, welfare and safety of the world than all the earthquakes and tornadoes since the days of Eliiah. Everyone of the Kluxers I saw seem to belong to that sector of humanity that invariably stands in need of all the sympathy and pity of right thinking individuals who long-since have learned that the problems of this world require the readjustment of our personal plans and co-operation among men of divergent opinions. When one takes into consideration the aim and object of the Klan, he easily can see the maze of the mind of the Klux bird. When the boats are immense in number, the water is shallow; but when they are immense in size, the water is deep. I am trying to say that if the average man among us had more gray matter, there would be fewer Ku Klux, I mean, fewer usurping supremacy seekers in our big brotherhood. I am very sorry that intelligence has formulated and suggested the policy of self-aggrandizement to my white brethren. Self aggrandizement is not the policy of this government. And any program whose sole object is self-aggrandizement is not only unAmerican, but it belongs underneath the mud sills of that place where the Bible teaches the worm dieth not. If my white brother feels that the Klan movement will avert strife, he should be more chary of egging it on. For antagonism, race hatred, religious intolerance and antipathy are the seeds of destruction. Yours sincerely, MESSSIAH KING. Address: 1342 Corgoran Street, N.W. Washington, D. C.

Its assemblage, its program, its creed, its various speeches gave us a striking and vivid indication that a movement is on foot to unite all the most vicious possibilities of bigotry, class hatred and race prejudice by denying the basic theory which gave birth to the declaration, "that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." We recall that the history of the Ku Klux Klan, like the history of Great Britain's King, in 1776, "is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny [white supremacy] over these States." We are convinced that the creed of the Klan is diametrical to the basic principle upon which the Protestant religion is founded. Try as we may, there is no reconciling its program with one which would create greater "love to God and love to one another." But we are not surprised at the rapidity with which the Klan is growing, after seeing and intermingling with its members and noting their most blazing characteristic—IGNORANCE. Nor would we be surprised at anything they do; for any man or any group of men who can be made to believe that a prayer: "Oh, God, I pray that the remainder of this service [klan assembly] will be conducted without rain" is sufficient to clear the skies of a black cloud which "darkened the whole heavens" can be made to believe and do anything for the good or ill of mankind. Are we to believe that our Commissioners, knowing this state of affairs, were justified in subjecting the tranquility of our erstwhile peaceful community to the whims of such an ignorant horde? Are we to believe that our Federal Government is so narrow in its vision as to be unable to see that an organization, which openly declares that, "as long as the black remain black, and the white remain white, all is well," is an organization working in opposition to the organic aim of these United States? The affirmative of these questions we cannot believe. We rather believe that the powers that be realize that the temple of "white supremacy" is being built—as only it can be—upon the crust of a seething volcano, the safety of which depends upon their ability to remove the heat of discontent. And they will discard every fostered principle to avert the inevitable crumbling in, or explosion of their temple.

Parkhurst admitted in jail it is alleged, that at the girl's request he had purchased some medicine for her. He denied he had been intimate with her. The girl's story as told Saturday night was to the effect that she was walking along Sligo road when some one came from behind and placed a hand over her eyes. Threatening her life with a knife which he branished, if she made an out-cry, he dragged her through the mud and water into an excavation near the road and then to a spot behind a pile of tile. She fainted and when she revived, he told her if she reported the crime, he would return and kill her. She went to a nearby home as soon as she was released and later was treated by a doctor. According to her story, she was held for two hours. PAGE SIX ```markdown ``` such cases of assault upon white women by alleged Negroes.

Transition is painful is inevitable, and the is proceed, it may be hope themselves, it would a Readers of this column are surprised at the lack of information which the generally accepted intelligent public has concerning evolution and Darwinism, and especially are they surprised to learn that many biologists confuse the two terms. It is needless to say that the chief hobgoblin of the anti-evolutionists is Darwin, and in view of the frequency with which Darwinism will be mentioned in the next few months it may not be amiss to set down here just what the essence of the doctrine really is. Darwin was not the first to think of evolution, but he is responsible for the gathering of the data and the making the concept immediately acceptable to the scientific world. His prime contribution—Darwinism—was the theory of natural selection, advanced as a partial explanation of HOW evolution could have taken place. He states that the black bear is not to be found in the polar I. L. PARKER region because the color of the be makes the bear more easily seen than the white or polar bear—nason why there are no black bears and therefore a proposed cause of explanation was that, given rem mystical force was necessary to, and this shows why Darwin is so.

Thus the must make for race progress in all directions. The variations actions due to chemical changes on distance of the qualities is no longer are matters of common observation. Among the evils which the op fear (aside from the decimation slackening of moral restraints, for is often held accountable; and the logical conception of man's natural Kropotkin, for instance, derives antecedents, such as the mutual a and the family life characteris course, is simply an explanation our morals; but the scientific str preaches worse. For the evolutionary view not vior; it suggests the possibility, wherever the current customs is freedom and happiness. Rigid are strikingly characteristic of s survey of human society, and the changing morality with alarm, or expected in the light of evolution is not some incantation powerf rather scientific direction calculate in such directions as will serve good life. Thus ethics and but though institutional religion she pass away altogether. Transitic quieting; but change is inevitable of human life will proceed, it mentalists, who are themselves, of their stand. region because the color of the bear, against a white background, makes the bear more easily seen and consequently a better prey than the white or polar bear—national selection, a proposed reason why there are no black bears to be found in the polar region; and therefore a proposed cause of evolution. The merit of his explanation was that, given remote origins, no supernormal or mystical force was necessary to account for gradual progress—and this shows why Darwin is so unpopular in Tennessee. The process of natural selection depends on five simple items: First, more, offspring are born than can grow up; second, these offspring differ among themselves; third, they struggle for existence; fourth, the fittest, strongest, best, win on the average and have offsprings; fifth, these offsprings inherit some of their parents' superiority. Thus the mere pressure of the environment must make for race progress in the presence of variation in all directions. The variations are now being explained as mutations due to chemical changes on a minute scale and the inheritance of the qualities is no longer a mystery. The other items are matters of common observation and logic. Among the evils which the opponents of evolution profess to fear (aside from the decimation of their congregations) is the slackening of moral restraints, for which the Darwinian exegesis is often held accountable; and there is no denying that the biological conception of man's nature is bound to affect his ethics. Kropotkin, for instance, derives human morality from subhuman antecedents, such as the mutual aid which animals often practice and the family life characteristic of many species. This, of course, is simply an explanation, not a destructive criticism, of our morals; but the scientific student of ethics goes further and preaches worse. For the evolutionary view not only traces the origins of behavior; it suggests the possibility, even the desirability, of change wherever the current customs prove incompatible with health, freedom and happiness. Rigid repressions and inviolate taboos are strikingly characteristic of savagery, as Tozzer shows in his survey of human society, and there is no reason to view our changing morality with alarm, or as anything but what is to be expected in the light of evolutionary principles. What is needed is not some incantation powerful enough to stay the tide, but rather scientific direction calculated to guide irresistible forces in such directions as will serve what Betrand Russell calls the good life. Thus ethics and biology can work harmoniously, though institutional religion should prove recalcitrant, or even pass away altogether. Transition is painful, uncertainty is disquieting; but change is inevitable, and the intelligent amelioration of human life will proceed, it may be hoped, despite the fundamentalists, who are themselves, it would appear, none too sure of their stand. MUSIC FORUM By Wellington A. Adams MODERN MUSICIAN HIGHLY EDUCATED Howard Bailey writes interestingly as well as sanely. In one of his recent articles on "Music," many of his statements were striking in their forcefulness of truth and too, there were some others equally striking in the forcefulness of their lack of truth. However, we are herewith quoting one of his statements as follows: "Along with the study of music must go study of other things as well. The old belief that a musician must be an eccentric sort of being who is fortunate enough to possess a talent that stands between him and starvation has long since been exploded. In these days a musician, to rise to the first rank in his art, must be highly intelligent and highly educated. He must be versed in the languages and histories of various peoples. He must be a psychologist, and he must have that musical eloquence that carries personality as well as tone across the footlights to his audience." Lots of colored folk don't believe that a musician is educated beyond his music sphere. He just knows a few notes and things, is the general opinion of the average person of a musician where ever one is. The average colored person's perspective of a real musician anyway is that of the so-called "ivory tickler" or swaying "jazz-king." Take the church choir leader or organist, most congregations believe they are only cut-out to do that particular kind of work successfully and seldom if ever ask their opinion or judgment in matters outside of the pale of church music. Take the civic affairs held from time to time in this and other communities where civic welfare is paramount, seldom ever are musicians called upon to take a prominent part in proceedings. This condition of affairs arises from the fact that the musician of the past was more of a specialist in his line and not developed in general culture and education. Nowadays, to I. L. PARKER know a modern musician one finds in him a scholar, intelligence of the highest order and prepared both educationally and musically to cope with that of his fellow professional minds, the lawyer, physician, educator, scientist. The modern musician truly is a wonderful personality and factor in our civilization as Bailey says he must be a psychologist, linguist, intelligent, highly educated, know histories of various peoples and possess musical eloquence. Surely who wouldn't envy such brilliance, the acme of enlightenment! And again, my dear folks, please quit the idea of getting a smattering study of music, i.e., merely learning to play the piano, violin or other instrument and singing too, without getting a larger vision of the necessary equipment in the training. In a sense you are wasting time just being taught how to play and taught nothing else. To be thoroughly grounded in music one must know more of a subject than the mere playing of a favorite instrument. The surest road to success is to learn all you can while you can. In the end it really pays. Every musician should make him or herself felt in the community where residing and if you can't succeed there is something radically wrong either with yourself or your plans. Strive to measure up to the standard as established. The modern musical artist of today occupies a very high plane as such. One may not attain artistry without a fundamentally deep groundwork and a superstructure of gigantic proportions of all the essential elements of construction known to musical science and culture, backed up native intuitiveness and musical proclivity. And there are a thousand and one technical bolts to bolster up this massive architectural scheme that when completed fully stands out as a master piece of art—The Master Musician, the Artist, over whom strong men weep and weak women rave in wildest ecstacy!

CARTHAGE Carthage was a city on the north coast of Africa, the capital of one of the great empires of the ancient world. It stood on a peninsula of the region that is now called Tunis. Carthage was, perhaps, founded about the middle of the 9th century B.C. by Phonecians from Tyre or from the Tyrian colony of Utica. About the 6th century B.C., it appears as the center of a great commerce, and the capital of wide dominions in Africa, Sardinia, Sicily, Corsica, and probably Malta. In 525 B.C. Carthage narrowly escaped destruction at the hands of Cambyses, the Persian King, and in 509 B.C. occurred her first treaty with the rising power of Rome. About this time began the contest between the Carthaginians and the Greeks for the possession of Sicily. Greece had settled a large part of that island with her colonies, and while she was engaged in her struggle with Persia, Carthage decided to wrest Sicily from her. This war was carried on 250 years and in 276 B.C. when the war game to a close Carthage was victor. At this time Rome contested Carthage's sovereignty of the Mediterranean and in 264 B.C. began the great Punic wars. By the close of the first of these wars, in 241 B.C. Carthage had lost Sicily; but his general, Hamilcar, and his son-in-law, Hassidraub, built up a new power in Spain, and at their death, Hannibal, the son of Hamilcar, one of the greatest generals the world has ever known, found himself able to renew the struggle. In 219 B.C. the second Punic war started. Hannibal left Spain, crossed the Alps, descended into Italy, and, in battle after battle, with inferior forces, he routed the best soldiers of the ancient world. He brought Rome to the edge of ruin but he failed to keep the support of his own people. Arnold, the esteemed historian said well when he asserted it was the war of a man with a nation. After fifteen years in Italy, Hannibal was recalled to defend his own city, and in 202 B.C. he was defeated by Scipio at the battle of Zama. Rome was resolved to destroy Carthage and after the third Punic war which lasted two years, razed the city to the ground. Later Carthage became one of the chief cities of the Roman empire. In the 5th century A.D., it became the capital of the Vandal kingdom of Africa, and it was destroyed at the end of the 7th century by the Arabs. The government of Carthage was carried on by two chief magistrates and a senate of the leading families. The Carthaginians were a great trading people. Their ships sailed as far west as the Azores and as far north as Britain and the Baltic. There was at that day an immense trade with the interior of Africa, as well as with the Gallic tribes. At the time of the siege of Carthage by the Romans, the city is said to have had a population of 700,000 inhabitants. A GOOD SUGGESTION Dear Editor: I enjoy the Children's Page of your paper very much. I saw in last week's paper that some suggestions for the Children's Page were requested. I am sending you a suggestion that I think will be progressive and successful. I am thinking of the formation of some baseball teams which could be formed in two leagues. A schedule could be made and the winning teams of each league could play at some suitable place a little world series. To organize teams of this sort, the first thing to do is to call the boys not older than 14 together. At the meeting the leagues, teams and the names of the players and their positions will appear in the "Children's Page." I think this is a good suggestion and will afford much fun and enjoyment among the Tribunites. HARRY PARKER (13) Dear Harry: Due to the fact that it is so late in the season your suggestion can not be carried out this year. Nevertheless, I would like for you to visit me here at the office on next Tuesday. Ask for Mr. Frazer. A POEM Pleasant Vacation Boys and girls, I wish for you Joys and pleasures, not a few.

Pleasae Boys and go for you Joys and go a few At restful count Or mount view I send to short Best wish vacat BOY SCOUT ACTIVITIES A Scout's Honor is to be Trusted The most important scout characteristic is that of honor. Indeed, this is the basis of all scout virtues and is closely allied to that of self-respect. When a scout promises to do a thing on his honor, he is bound to do it. The honor of a scout will not permit of anything, but the highest and the best and the manliest. The honor of a scout is a sacred thing, and cannot be lightly set aside or trampled on. A Scout is Faithful Faithfulness to duty is another one of the scout virtues. When it is a scout's duty to do something, he dare not shirk. A scout is faithful to his own interest and the interests of others. He is true to his country and his God. A scout is cheerful. As the scout law intimates, he must never go about with a sulky air. He must always be bright and smiling, and as the humorist says, "Must always see the doughnut and not the hole." A bright face and a cheery word spread like sunshine from one to another. It is the scout's duty to be a sunshine-baker in the world. A Scout is Kind to Animals Another scout trait is that of thoughtfulness, even to animals; not merely the thoughtfulness that eases a horse from the pain that is in need, but also that which keeps a boy from throwing a stone at a cat or tying a tin can on a dog's tail. If a boy does not prove his thoughtfulness and friendship for animals, it is quite certain that he never will be really helpful to his comrades or to the men, women, and children who may need his care. CURRENT NEWS CONDENSED Gleams of light occasionally pierce the thick darkness of racial prejudice and oppression which has so long enveloped the South.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1925 VERSES AND POEMS FOR THE YOUNGER TRIBUNITES When I was a laddie I was very fond of jingles, verses and poems.

Playground News (By T. J. Anderson) Track athletics are booming on both the school and the municipal playgrounds this week in anticipation of keen rivalry on Friday afternoon, August 14th, when the embryonic De Hart Hubbards are scheduled to face the gun in the Second Annual City Championships at Cardoza playground. Only point winners in this meet are eligible to defend the cup donated by the Washington Tribune to the winner of the intercity meet with Baltimore on August 29th. Athletes from Howard playground, who are being schooled by the veteran coach, Billy Warfield, are out to repeat their victory of last year. With Roland Richardson and H. O. Bright out of the running, however, Lovejoy or Bruce playgrounds are apt to carry away the team honors. Girl athletes, having caught the athletic fever from the boys, are making some impressive records in the dual meets that are in progress. At a recent meet on the Burville playgrounds, a twelve-year-old girl, Josephine Neal, leaped 12 feet, 5 inches through space in the running broad-jump event. Playground officials are delving into the athletic archives to verify the belief that this jump constitutes a world's record for a 12-year-old girl. Miss Neal scored 13 points which enabled her team to tie Burville for team honors. Miss Hester Woodward was the high point scorer for Burville. She accounted for a first and two third places. This girl has never been defeated in a sprint race. The scores are: Standing broad jump—Josephine Neal, Deanwood, 6 ft. 6 in.; Birdie Medley, Burville, 6 ft. 2 in.; Hester Woodward, Burville, 6 ft. 2 in. Running broad jump—Josephine Neal, Deanwood, 12 ft. 5 in.; Birdie Medley, Burville, 10 ft. 10 in.; Hester Woodward, Burville, 10 ft. 6 in. Forty-yard dash—Hester Woodward, Burville, first; Josephine Neal, Deanwood, second; Marie Epps, Burville, and Dorothy Crone, Deanwood, tie for third place. Time 6 2-5 sec. Air-tight pipping is the outstanding feature of the midget baseball league. Scores for the week were as follows: Birney 4, Cleveland 3; Lovejoy 3. Birney 1; G. Taylor, the "Walter Johnson" of the Lovejoy nine has pitched eighteen innings against Birney without allowing but one run. Cleveland and Lovejoy are planning to stage a little world series to decide the midget championship of the school playground circuit.
