REV. GREENWAY, ALLEGED K. K.K. SYMPATHIZER, DECLINES PRESIDENCY OF LINCOLN
FIRST IN ADVERTISING AND CIRCULATION
Vol. VI, No. 8
HIS SELECTION PROTESTED
Rev. Walter B. Greenway to whom the presidency of Lincoln University was tendered by the Board of Trustees of that university has declined to accept.
Whether a letter sent to Rev. Greenway by the Lincoln Alumni Association through Dr. E. P. Roberts of New York City and William H. Ashby of Newark, N.J., respectively, president and secretary, which read as follows, had any influence in the matter or not is difficult to determine.
The wired letter read:
The wired letter read: "Rumor has it that the presidency of Lincoln University has been tendered you. If this be true, before accepting, it is only fair that you know all the facts you must face. You will meet the hostile opposition of the Lincoln University Alumni, the violent attacks of the Negro race, and the lack of support of many white friends of Negro education. We urge you for your own happiness, the best interest of Lincoln University and of the Negro race to decline this offer." A copy of this wire was also sent to the secretary of the board of trustees. No acknowledgement of the wire was forthcoming from the trustees. Dr. Greenway's declination was forwarded to the trustees on the same date as that of the Alumni wire, June 30. The excuse offered by Rev. Greenway is that moving to the university would interfere with the business life of his sons, aged 19 and 20. He is at present pastoring a church in Philadelphia. No information is available yet as to who may probably be named. There is a local Lincoln alumni association in Washington numbering about thirty members. In the group are many of the men who have created for themselves important places in the professional and social life of the city.
Among these we find the names of Dr. A. M. Curtis, Professor Leonard Johnson of Howard University, Charles A. Booker, Captain Harry Atwood, Rev. Francis J. Grimke, and his brother, Archibald H. Grimke, and many others well known in Washington. In addition there are perhaps twenty students in the professional schools at Howard who took their college work at Lincoln.
The alumni of Lincoln has been instrumental in preventing three different men from accepting the post of president of the university. They insist upon a representation on the board of trustees and upon, "a live comparatively young and aggressive president who is an educator; and decline to permit the position to become the sinecure for any broken down Presbyterian minister," to quote the words of an active alumnus.
Lincoln has been without a president for several years, and the condition cannot continue much longer. It has already served to embarrass the alumni in their efforts to provide finances for a new dining hall for the school. Graduates hesitate to respond to overtures while dissatisfied with the policy of the board of trustees concerning the president, and the declining to recognize the graduates who want to advance the interests of the school to the extent of financing improvements.
Dr. Francis Grimke, a Lincoln alumnus who has been honored with a place on the trustee board of Howard University, has for some years been bitter against Lincoln officials. He is one of three Lincoln men who have served on the Howard faculty or official staff. Lincoln, he is reported to have declared, places itself in the inconsistent position of preparing Negro teachers for other schools, at the same time by its actions pronouncing them unfit to serve as trustees of their Alma Mater.
TAKEN TO LEAVENWORTH TO SERVE SENTENCE
The group of prisoners, who some weeks ago attempted to escape from the District jail, were among a consignment of 41 prisoners taken from Washington to the federal prison at Leavenworth, Kansas, to serve sentences.
The group included Denzie Jackson sentenced to life imprisonment; Horace Turner under sentence of six years for housebreaking and larceny; Henry Valentine with a similar sentence; Amos Curtis to do two years for assault with a dangerous weapon, and William Jasper three years for grand larceny.
When the last four complete their sentences, they will be brought trial on a charge of assault with intent to kill that grows out of the effort to escape from jail.

ONE COLORED VICTIM IN S-51 SUBMARINE DIASTER
New York City, July 15.—The body of George Henry Martin, officer's cook on the ill-fated S-51 and one of the 18 bodies identified as victims of the sunken submarine here today, was sent to the home of his widow at 1905 Federal St., Philadelphia, Saturday afternoon. The S-51 was the United States naval submarine which was rammed and sunk under the prow of the "City of Rome" last September off Block Island in the Atlantic.
The dramatic struggle made by seamen since last fall to raise the sunken boat has held the attention of the entire world and was just recently crowned with success. Eighteen bodies found in the hull of the submarine at the New York navy yards Friday were identified and Martin was included in the number. Evidence that every man on the boat stuck to his duty to the last has been given by the investigation of the wrecked craft by naval officials. Honors for the dead heroes have been conveyed to their relatives, including a message of condolence from President Coolidge. Martin was the only Negro aboard the submarine.
CO. A, NATIONAL GUARD, IN CAMP IN MARYLAND
CO. A, NATIONAL GUARD, IN CAMP IN MARYLAND
With First Separate Md. Co. in Manuvers at Saunders Range
Company A, of the First Battallion, 372 Regiment National Guard of the District of Columbia entrained Sunday at 10 Oclock, for a tour of duty at Saunders Range, Md., that will continue until camp is struck on July 25. The company left under command of Captain Arthur C. Newman on a special train over the W.B. and A. Electric line for the camp where they will be joined by the First Separate company of the National Guard of Maryland.
Captain Newman took with him First Lieutenant Cornelius A. King; Second Lieutenant Frank Coleman and Captain Albert Ridgely of the Medical Corps. There were 65 privates in Company A, with the following warrant officers among them. First Sergeant Ira M. Payne, Sergeants James J. Ennis, John A. Powell, Frederick Myers, Munroe Slaughter, Percy J. Rayford, Howard A. Sparrow, Leroy G. Davis, Sylvester and T. Blackwell, Corporals Oscar G. Blue, Oscar J. Guy, John W. Moten, Edward S. Young, Benjamin Burrell, John M. Davis, Robert Dyson and William E. Lindsay. Of these officers, Lieutenant Poole, commander of the colored detachment of the regular Army at Fort Humphries, who recently inspected the organization said "they are so excellent as to deserve special commendation."
Better Organization
This year's tour of camp duty is especially significant in view of the fact that it is the purpose of the War Department to complete the organization of the 372 Regiment. The plan of organization provides for a full battalion in the District of Columbia where battalion headquarters have been opened in the K. of P. Building, at Twelfth and U Streets, with Captain Newman as senior captain in command. Immediately after the close of the summer camp a complete personnel of officers will be named for battalion and staff and organization. Under the newer military regulations, a battalion is commanded by a Lieutenant Colonel with a Major as second in command. Each battalion is now provided with a headquarters company and a machine gun com pany. It is almost certain that Captain Newman will be commissioned as Battalion commander, with a very strong possibility that he may command the regiment with rank of Colonel. The showing made in creating the battalion organization in the District will be a large influence in the matter. The Second Battalion is located in Ohio with the old Ohio National Guard unit as the nucleas. The Third Battalion is a Massachusetts organization with armory headquarters in Boston. This unit usually encamps at Camp Devons, Massachusetts.
Maryland and District
The First Separate Battalion of Maryland moved into Camp Saunders, under command of Captain William Craigler with Lieutenants Thomas H. Chatman, Jr., and Harry Dorsey as its commissioned support.
The District boys went to camp gaily. Many of them are men who have seen service overseas, and the grind of preparation for the move was to
OCEY GRAY, VICTIM OF ACCIDENTAL FALL, BURIED
OCEY GRAY, VICTIM OF ACCIDENTAL FALL, BURIED
Funeral services for Annie E. (Ocie) Gray, who was found dead last Saturday morning in the bathroom of her home, 1909 Eight Street, Northwest, were held Monday afternoon at the Morning Star Lodge Elks Home, Fifteenth and Q Streets, Northwest. A large crowd of her friends and acquaintances were present to pay their last respects. The room in which the services were held, was too small to accommodate the crowd. The people congregated on the street corners, while automobiles blocked street traffic.
Many beautiful floral tributes were sent.
Ocie, as she was known in the circles in which she moved, was found dead in the bathroom of her home by Corinthia Croxton, of 615 Q Street, last Saturday morning. Ocie had apparently gone to the bathroom to stop a flow of blood from a cut artery in her arm.
The usual, large number of visitors to the home of Ocie called Friday, but failed to get any response. Among them was Corinthia Croxton. Miss Croxton returned Saturday morning and inquired of neighbors if Ocie had been seen any time about her premises. Told that she had not, Miss Croxton got a man and entered the house.
The Freedmen's Hospital ambulance was called and upon arrival Dr. L. S. Butler stated that Ocie had been dead about 36 hours.
Cut by Glass
The police theory is that Ocie stumbled on the stairs leading from the first to the second floor and crashed through a window at the stair-landing midway between the two floors. The window glass was broken an a trial of blood led to the bathroom above. Her left arm was cut about 36 hours. Coroner J. Ramsay Nevitt was notified and issued a certificate of accidental death. Current reports are that a party was in progress at the house last Thursday night. Ocie, intoxicated, quit the party and went upstairs. It is then, it is thought, that she crashed through the window. Her friends remained for a time, but when Ocie failed to return, they left, leaving the front door open. This door was still open when the house was entered Saturday morning. Ocie had been given lately to drinking continually. Her friends say that despondency over a love affair was the cause. She lived alone. Annie E. (Ocie) was the daughter of Walter and Catherine Gray, and the sister of Amanda Gray, John Gray and Sadie Morgan. She was a member of Forest Temple No. 9, Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World.
IROW BOYD BURIED WITH MASONIC RITES
IROW BOYD BURIED WITH MASONIC RITES
Irow Boyd, 46-year-old bachelor who made his home with his brother at 425 New York Avenue, and for more than a dozen years operated an express business of his own, died on Sunday July 11th after a long illness. He was buried from Metropolitan Baptist Church at 1 oclock, Wednesday afternoon, Rev. M. W. D. Norman delivered the funeral sermon.
Mr. Boyd is survived by a sister Mrs. Carrie Scott, a brother Sydney Boyd and Mrs. Sarah Boyd a sister-in-law. He was born near Raleigh, N.C., and has been in Washington for many years.
The deceased was an active church worker; and was prominent in the fraternal life of the city. He was buried with the ceremonies of the Masonic craft, and attended upon his final journey by representatives of a number of fraternities to which he belonged.
He was a member of Hiram Lodge No. 4 F.A.A.M.; Henderson Commandery No. 2 Knights Templars; St. John's Chapter Royal Arch Masons and Mecca Temple of Shriners.
In the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, he was a member of the Past Grand Masters Council; a member of Washington Patriarch; and a member of the John McC. Crummell Lodge 1437.
He belonged to Capital City Lodge, No. 12, Knights of Pythias and to Company No. 9 of the Uniform Rank of the Order.
The floral tributes bore mute testimony of the high esteem with which Mr. Bovd was regarded in the community. Janifer and Hunter conducted the funeral.
them but a pleasant pastime tinged with reminiscence.
The schedule of duties prepared by Captain Newman and approved by the general staff is a rigorous one that brings out all of the mettle in the men without exercising any undue hardship upon the boys. Reports from camp indicates that the boys are going to their assignments with a spirit that cannot but be observed to the advantage of the Negro in the military life.

PHILA. JUDGE CANDIDATE FOR HEAD OF ELKS
PHILA. JUDGE CANDIDATE FOR HEAD OF ELKS
Edward W. Henry, exalted ruler of O.V. Catto Lodge, Philadelphia, is invading the strongholds of J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World, in an effort to win to the support of his candidacy a sufficient number of delegates to the Grand Lodge, which will be held in Cleveland, Ohio, August 22-27, and defeat Wilson for re-election.
Judge Henry spent Sunday and Monday here conferring with local Elk leaders. He was accompanied by W. H. Shands, also of Philadelphia. Mr. Shands was formerly an enthusiastic supporter of Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson. He is now managing the campaign of Judge Henry, who is the leading opponent of Mr. Wilson. They came here from Richmond, Va., where they had been in the interest of the candidacy of the Judge. The State of Virginia will have approximately 140 delegates in the Grand Lodge. Of these number, Judge Henry and Mr. Shands claim, not less than 131 will oppose the re-election of Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson, who is a candidate for a fifth term.
Split Delegations
In their conferences with local leaders here, they were given much encouragement. Columbia Lodge No. 85, to which the Grand Exalted Ruler belongs, as well as Morning Star Lodge No. 40, will send split delegations, one faction of each delegation supporting and the other faction of each delegation opposing the reelection of Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson, they were told.
Great emphasis is placed upon the attitude of the New York city lodges. Joseph (Blondy) Brown is managing the campaign of Judge Henry in New York State, and he is expected to swing the Monarch Lodge delegation and a majority of the delegates from the other lodges in the state to the support of Judge Henry.
From other parts of the United States, reports are just as encouraging, say Judge Henry and his campaign manager. The Chicago lodges, the Gary, Indiana, lodge to which W. C. Hueston, Elks commissioner of education, belongs; and a larger number of other western lodges are veering to the support of the candidacy of Judge Henry.
The election of Judge Henry as the next grand exalted ruler of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks was proposed simultaneously by O.V. Catto Lodge, Philadelphia, Pa., and Shaster Lodge, San Francisco, Cal.
Henry is Magistrate
Edward W. Henry is the magistrate of the largest magisterial district in Philadelphia. For five years he was the president of the Citizens' Republican Club of Philadelphia. In 1924, he resigned in order to support the candidacy of John W. Davis for president of the United States. He has since returned to the Republican party and is affiliated with the regular Republican organization in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania politics.

DR. A. B. MCKINNEY MUCH IMPROVED
Dr. Arthur B. McKinney of 1515 First Street, whose sudden illness and complete nervous collapse about four months ago obliged his removal to Freedmen's Hospital; and whose removal from the hospital in a somewhat abrupt and spectacular fashion on April 27, by his brothers occasioned comment at the time, has since then been slowly recuperating at his mother's home at the above address. When a Tribune representative called on Wednesday of this week, the patient was out enjoying an auto ride with his friend, Dr. R. L. McGuire. His physician, Dr. N. F. Graham of 909 New York Avenue, who has been in charge of the case since the removal from Freedmen's, called while the Tribune man was present and found his patient out.
The mother of the doctor states that he has so far recovered as to be able to dress and undress himself, to manipulate a knife and fork with comparative case, and to go up and down stairs unassisted.
He has been at his mother's home where he could receive the maximum care, though his own residence is but two doors above on the same street. Mrs. Ethel McKiney, his wife, who is employed in the office of the Assistant Superintendent of Public Schools at Franklin School, according to a brother, spends considerable time with her husband, going back and forth between the two homes during the hours when she is not employed.
He is member of the World Court Committee of Pennsylvania; director of the Mercy Hospital, director of the nurses training school; director of the Uplift Orphans Industrial School; director of the Armstrong Welfare Citizens Association, and a former president of the Elks' State Association of Pennsylvania.

MAJOR A. BROOKS ILL AT SUMMER WHITE HOUSE
MAJOR A. BROOKS ILL AT SUMMER WHITE HOUSE
"Major" Arthur Brooks, residing at 1302 S Street, Northwest, custodian of public property assigned to the White House who for many years has been charged with maintaining correct wardrobe and seeing that the President of the United States is correctly groomed, was seized with a heart attack last Monday night, that was reported, through the daily press, much to the shock of Mr. Brooks. Washington friends who have long been aware that he was in poor health. However, the attack was of slight duration and later messages from White Pine Camp, N. Y., via., the White House to Mrs. Brooks assured her that there was no need for anxiety.
Lieutenant Colonel Brooks, to give him the title that is his right, that being the rank he held at retirement from the National Guard, is a veteran employee of the White House; and is one of the most respected citizens of Washington. He has been ailing for about three years, and President Coolidge had invited Brooks to take the trip with his party to the New York Summer home in the hope that the change of climate would be beneficial to him.
Mr. Brooks has had a most interesting and active career.
He was military instructor and drill master of colored high school cadets of the District of Columbia from October 15, 1888, to November 13, 1918. To him was accredited arranging the first presidential review of the high school cadets on the ellipse, when Walter Loving, a Dunbar graduate, led the Philippine constabulary band in review before President Taft, former governor general of the islands. He also was responsible for attendance of President Coolidge at the regimental drill of colored high school cadets last year.
He is a member of St. Mary's Episcopal Church, of Ionic Lodge of Odd Fellows, John F. Cook Lodge of Masons. His wife was for a time especially distressed as the report came but a few weeks after she had buried her sister, Mrs. Anite Joy Clark. The Brooks family and that of his wife, the Joys, are old families widely known in the city.
In all probability the brief illness will in no wise alter the Major's plan to remain with the presidential party for the summer; but should there be any recurrence, he will return to his Washington home.
A "WHITE" POOL
"Happyland," the bathing pool constructed by the Washington Sport Amusement Company on Georgetown Avenue, opposite the American League Baseball Park, was opened to the public last Saturday as a "white pool" according to signs outside the entrance. The project was first conceived as an enterprise to cater to colored patronage. It was to have opened on Memorial Day. Construction operations delayed the opening until now. The official ceremonial opening schedule for tomorrow. Differences among the executives as to policy provided many rumors concerning its probable patronage, the "white" policy finally prevailed. The price scale of 75 cents with tax has not so far attracted a sustaining business. Rumor has it that if white patronage will not prove financially successful, the pool will be given over to Negro patronage.

CIVIL SETTLEMENT
MADE
The charge of assault against Clarence E. Muse, actor and producer; Creed Johnson, former stage manager, and Willie Jones, assistant stage manager at the Howard Theater, was not prossed Thursday morning. They were represented by Attorney Armond W. Scott.
This action was taken when Frances Walton, the show girl who made the charge against them, presented a letter to Assistant United States Attorney Givens, saying that she wanted to go to New York and did not care to press the charge any further.
The girl is understood to have accepted the payment of $55 in satisfaction of civil damages which she is alleged to have sustained as a result of the assault.
Warrants for the arrest of the men were sworn on Saturday, July 3, but before they were served, Attorney Scott arranged bonds in the sum of $300 each.
The case was called for trial in police court Friday, July 9. Attorney Scott demanded a jury trial for his clients.
After a two weeks' lay off, Muse and his company will play next week at the Lincoln Theater, Baltimore, Md.
The charge was preferred against them Saturday, July 3, by Frances Walton a chorus girl.
According to the story she told the police, Creed Johnson was annoying her behind stage while Clarence Muse was doing his act, a vest pocket edition of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde". Suddenly, she yelled. When Clarence Muse came off stage, he asked who was it that yelled, and when he was told it was she he walked to her and slapped her and directed Creed Johnson to throw her off the stage. In doing this Creed is alleged to have injured the girl. Willie Jones held the door open for the girl to be thrown out. it is said. Clarence E. Muse says, "Frances Walton, chorus girl who signed a contract with the Muse Company under that name, swore out a warrant under the name of Catherine Stokes, charging me, Creed Johnson and Willie Jones with making an assault upon her on the Howard Theater stage, created a disturbance while I was performing my act which not only interrupted me but came near creating a panic in the audience.
"Creed Johnson in performing his duty attempted to eject her, and when she offered strenuous resistance, the assistant stage manager came to his rescue. About this time I had finished my act and when they had got her into the street a policeman brought her back and was about to arrest her when I interrupted and begged that the officer let her go. She subsequently claimed that I slapped her which I and other witnesses deny, and she further claims that the other two men cruelly beat her."

When You Have Lost All Hope---See Me! I Will Help You to Regain Your Health.
Have you or any of your friends lost their health? My many years of experience have taught me that out of every 12 families we usually find 6 out of those 12, affected with chronic ailments, and usually from not observing their health and allowing themselves to reach the chronic stage. Every good-thinking person should be examined twice a year to avoid chronic ailments. Many people delay their complaints and say that they only have indigestion. Over one-half of the cases are chronic gastritis with neuritic conditions. Usually neuritis accompanies chronic indigestion and gastritis together comes to be a complication of diseases.
My many years of experience have taught me that the first symptoms of chronic indigestion. We now have more than one kind of indigestion.
I am always pleased to have you come to my office and to explain chronic diseases to you. It brings such a peculiar feeling, Chronic diseases are not one single symptom, but are more than seven symptoms. It comes to be complicated that it takes possession of the entire system and affects the general organs to such an extent that the blood becomes impure. In every instance a woman or girl is one of the most peculiar sex to make a study of. Their symptoms are so peculiar in so many instances, where gastric organs come to be affected by gastric and neuritic condition. Many times it affects the entire abdomen, with kidney and liver troubles accompanying it. Usually when a woman begins to suffer with neuritic and gastritic troubles, for about three or four years, the symptoms will always be so affective upon the ovaries and womb that in many instances they resemble appendicitis.
I am always willing to furnish information free. I hope that this letter will be a help to you and your family, as I am always pleased to do something for the help of humanity.

COMING! Another Big Sensational Act
SUBURBAN GARDENS AMUSEMENT PARK
Something different from any act we have presented to our patrons. Known as the most daring and thrilling of any high-wire act in the world
Mr. Calvert does numerous daring stunts on a wire over 60 feet in the air. His playing the part of a drunkard high up in the air on a tight wire, is said to be the most dangerous stunt being performed on a wire by any living man. You must see this act to appreciate its daring and skill.
We are very fortunate in being able to secure the act of Mr. Calvert, as he is in great demand at all the big parks in the country; and though his salary runs into the hundreds of dollars, when you see his difficult and daring stunts you will say that you would n't try any one of them, yourself, for all the money in the U.S. Treasury.

XONERATED FOR DELAY IN SALUTING BORNO
New York, July 15.—Delay in firing a salute to President Louis Borno of Haiti on his recent arrival in New York resulted in an order for the court-martial of Col. James Thornton Watson, stationed at Governors island.
The court sat on July 14, and Col. Watson was exonerated. The excuse offered for his failure to have the salute properly timed was that the S.S. Ancon upon which President Borno arrived was not decorated with flags while the Roosevelt, a later arrival, was so decorated leading the fort commander to mistakenly salute the wrong vessel.
The charges against Col. Watson were preferred by Col. Stanley H. Ford, in whose absence Col. Watson was commanding officer at Fort Jay when President Borno arrived a few weeks ago.
Due to some misunderstanding the 21 gun presidential salute to the Haitian executive was not fired from the fort as his incoming ship passed, but was delayed nearly fifteen minutes, until she had reached her dock. The salute fired when he departed June 30, however, was rendered punctually, when a brigadier general, two colonels, five captains and five lieutenants lined upon the battlements' of Castle William in full regalia. On his arrival at Port-Au-Prince, Haiti President Borno issued a statement that he was sure the failure to extend the courtesy of a prompt salute upon his arrival was "unintentional," and the incident was thought to have been closed.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY. JULY 16. 1926
Denmark as official representative of the Colored Student Associations in this country. Mr. Riley is chairman of the Florida State Council of Colored Student Associations.
The conference at Helsingfor, which it is believed, may result in "the inauguration of a new working alliance between scientific investigation and the assurances of the Christian faith," will be devoted largely to a study of boys and their problems. In preparation for the discussions there, a survey has been made in all of the fifty-two countries to obtain a closer appreciation of the youth problem through consultation with the boys themselves.
Theories
Colored boys in a number of American communities have participated in these preliminary discussions. On the whole, they seemed to favor more responsibility for youth. One group believed that boys without homes make better men, and that a boy who has a home "should be responsible for helping to build it," and should be paid for his work and treated "as a partner."
Concerning race, the colored boys expressed the opinion that many Negroes "think God ordained white supremacy" and that often the dark race do not given themselves "credit for any kind of achievement." Such an inferiority complex, although on the decline, social workers say, is a handicap to the race.
"We are greatly encouraged by the results shown everywhere," said Robert L. Ewing, of New York, who has had charge of compiling the results from all over the country, "The fact that young boys have ideas and are anxious to express them is indicative. I believe, of a profitable intellectual advance."

At a meeting of the Cardinal Gibbon Institute Committee held at the Church of Our Lady of the Perpetual Help last Sunday, the organization went on record as indorsing the movement of placing a monument at the Gibbons Institute at Ridge, Maryland, in memory of Edward N.

Cyprians, J. R. Winters; Incarnation, Mrs. Goodrich; Perpetual Help, Miss Ida Cooke; Holy Redeemer, Peter M. Quander; Good Shepherd, C. W. Cropp, and Epiphany, James R. Smackum.

That is why the store was so crowded last week. Some drank soda, some ate ice cream at the new beautiful fountain, others bought toilet articles and herb remedies and other goods at Osman's improved and renovated cutrate store.
Well patronized by white and colored patrons, each receiving a fair and square deal; centrally located; well patronized by neighbors and passers by, but most people came from all over the city to patronize Osman's improved store, where you buy the same goods for less money.
It will pay and satisfy you to call on Osman, at the OLD INDIAN HERB STORE, 1728 Seventh St., N.W., between R and S Streets.

When you've lost all hopes, see me at my medical laboratory for women and children. All information free. I have specialized for ten years in women's and children's diseases. I do not ask you to leave your family physician and come to me. It is always advisable to consult your family physician of your condition. Every good thinking person usually does, especially a loyal citizen. But my many years of experience has taught me, that so many people get despondent, which is due to oversight of the person. It is unnecessary for any person to allow a disease to become chronic. The average person usually does this from not observing their primary complaints. The eyes and complexion always show a loss of health and lack of sufficient blood, before reaching the state of chronic disease. These symptoms usually determine nervousness and the loss of weirth.
The majority of people accuse the attending physician of their chronic complaints, when I will admit it is not the physician's fault. It is neglect of the individual in not seeing the attending physician in time. I advise you to have an examination twice a year to prevent chronic disease. But I ask you before leaving the city, for medical advice, to see me. Call at the Whitelaw Hotel, second floor, 13th and T Streets, Northwest. DR. INGRAM, M.D.

How wonderful it is to be beautiful! To have hair that is long, soft and silky—hair that, when bobbed, falls in graceful curls, charmingly framing the face—hair that scents the air with a dainty, mysterious perfume.
Is it any wonder that such women are beloved?
Gladys Robinson, famous leading lady of "The Smart Set", has such hair and says of it, "I owe it's beauty to Hi-Ja Quinine Hair Dressing. Without this wonderful product I would be lost. It is the best thing of its kind I have ever tried and since I am an actress and one who must be as beautiful as possible all the time, I have naturally used many products."

Training Schools
These conventions are not mere an-
nual “get togethers,” but — training
schools held yearly for Madam: C. J.
‘Walker Agents, where are learned the
very latest mode of beauty culture
in Vogue both here and abroad, and
where is displayed an array of “helps
from aprons to spectacular electric
signs, all to the end that these agents
may keep a few paces ahead in know-
ledge, efficiency and results obtained.
And this year will prove. no. excep-
tion to the rule. Demonstrations. by
experts in facials, scalp treating, mar-
celling, hairdressing, scientific’ lee-
tures on skin and sealp diseases. by
eminent physicians, papers on exper-
iences in the profession, discussions
of efficiency, education, ' psychology
and charity and many other subjects
will be gone into the three day in-
stitute which will be-held.
And the lighter side will) not be
overlooked. In the multi-colored
“smocks,” for each agent will wear
a smock or light weight coat of the
color of the. state she represents,
these energetic business women will
drink deeply of the true:K.C. hospital-
ity. Though the-plans have not been
entirely divulged, it is rumored a
style show, sight-seeing trip; dansant
and fishing party are to be held. »All
Walker agents expecting to attend
are being urged to write Mrs. P. E.

Convention Headquarters, 1222 Tracy
Avenue, Kansas City, Mo., for full de-
tails as to rates, stopping place and

LEDROIT TIGERS DEFEAT
MARYLAND NINE
By "Flash" Robeson
Baltimore, Md., July 12.—The Ledroit Tigers, District of Columbia champions defeated one of the local prize teams here yesterday afternoon at the Black Sox's park when they trimmed the Sparrows Point Club, 9 to 3.
"Red" Johnson, pitching for the Washington team staged a come-back, surprising his own followers by his work. For five innings he allowed but one hit and struck out six opposing batters.
Errors by Captain Kenner and Hope coupled with four hits and a wild pitch allowed the shipbuilders three runs in the sixth frame, which tied the score.
"Red" Johnson gave away to Kaiser in the seventh, and a double play stopped the Sparrows Point team from scoring in this inning. Kaiser was not in danger during the remaining two innings.
Sunday, July 18, the Ledroit Tigers will again invade Maryland, playing the Bethlehem Steel company's team at Sparrows Point. This is a fast, white, semi-pro club with several former major league players. The two teams will stage a double-header. Sparrows Pt. ab.r.h. Ledroitsab.r.h.

BLACK SOX DROP THREE GAMES TO LINCOLNS
New York, July 12—The Lincoln Giants, whose spur in the Eastern League has become sensational, defeated the Baltimore Black Sox three straights over the week-end, winning at Newark, N.J., on Saturday by a score of 6 to 5 and taking both ends of a twin bill at the New York Catholic Oval Sunday, 6 to 5 and 8 to 6. The first game was a bitter struggle the Lincolnns winning out in the ninth. In this frame Lloyd, leading off, singled into centre and went to third on Hudspeth's one-timer. G. Johnson died on a tap to the box, Lloyd holding third. Fial booted Finlay's grounder and Lloyd scored the win run. Rube Chambers twirled the first game for the home aggregation and allowed the Baltimoreans five scattered hits and fanned eleven men. In the second game the Lincoln continued their heavy slugging, collecting two Ruthian wallops, which decided the game.
Going into the sixth inning the Lincolns were two runs in arrears. With two down and Finlay on third, T. Gee hit a terrific drive over the right field fence, tieing the score. In the seventh R. Gee doubled and Hudspeth drove a vicious wallop over the centre field bleachers, scoring the two runs which decided the game. The Lincolns are only one full game from first place and expect to be on the top rung by the end of this week.

CHANEY PLAYS DUAL ROLE IN
COMING UNDERWORLD
MOVIE
As "Black Mike" in Todd Browning's great crook melodrama, "Outside the Law," a Universal-Jewel Production which comes this week to the Dunbari Theater, Lon Chaney brought forth the plaudits of the multitude and gasps of admiration from the critics a few years ago. Interest has been re-awakened in the marvelous dual role enacted by Chaney in this picture, for he also played the part of a Chinaman with almost unbelievable fidelity. Chaney's masterly portrayal of the character of "Black Mike," whose de-

CHANEY
praved soul in quickened only by the fire of hate, is no more to be wondered at than his astonishing role of "Ah Wing," the Chinaman. In this he is almost unbelievable. It is difficult to believe that these two parts are played by the same person. The Dunbari Theater is fortunate in having secured this great feature which will stand for a long time as the criterion of all that is big in motion pictures. In addition to Priscilla Dean and Lon Chaney, the cast includes players of note and unusual ability. They are Ralph Lewis, Wheeler Oakman, E. A. Warren, Stanley Goethals, Melbourne MacDowell and Wilton Tay

A RIGHT MOVE
From official sources it has been learned that the Negro battalion of the District of Columbia National Guard is being re-organized, and that the work of developing the unit is to be vigorously pushed. This is as it should be. With the R.O.T.C. work at Howard University, and the functioning of a whole battalion of the National Guard in the community, the development of Negro officers for a National Army is given a decided impetus. A battalion means about a score of commissioned officers, and approximately a hundred non-coms whose military training, supplemented by the very excellent public school education available in the District, should make of them very capable officers in an emergency.
Such an organization means much to the community. It means much to the race at large, for it cannot but give to our group the assurance that we are still regarded as a part of the citizenship of the country that we have never failed.
To send Negro soldiers to war without adequate training is murder of men and the suicide of the nation doing such a thing. To send them into such horror denied of the sympathetic understanding that can only come from officers of their own blood is almost as bad. To expect the best of Negro soldiers, while at the same time demonstrating to them that there is no reward for the bravery and loyalty asked of them, is asking more than intelligent human nature can give. The restoration of the First Battalion D.C.,N.G. is an indication that our government realizes these things.
NOTHING UNUSUAL
Daily newspaper reports of the President's trip to his summer home include an expression of implied marvel that the Negro members of the presidential party should have dined in the same dining car with the President. The reporter responsible for the story is either an amateur at travelling, or he is an avowed "cracker" prepagandist; for the situation he describes prevails on all of the railways of the country north and west

of Washington. Each dining car table
is regarded as a unit unto itself. It
is only among the ignorant of "Bam"
that the price of a cup of coffee warrants a "superior" one in assuming
that he has reserved all of the thirty-
six chairs in a standard dining car.
The President of the U.S.A. and his staff, being quite certain of their place in life, have no fears such as beset those who must constantly have their "superiority" asserted in order to keep themselves assured of their status, a something needed by only those who doubt their station.
After all, those Negroes were with their own party, otherwise they would not have been on the train at all.
THE BETTER WAY
George W. Grice died recently. He was the latest of several old Washingtonians to answer the call of the Master, each of whose lives demonstrated that one may so live that the world will mourn his passing, and at the same time he need not neglect himself and his family.
So many selfish men go through life grasping at everything, fearful to do anything without pay and declining to interest themselves in any movement that does not yield immediate personal gain. Men like Rev. Howard; Daniel Freeman and George Grice are shining examples of what men may accomplish even though they live with the handicaps usual to their race in this country.
So many of us are too busy to help those less fortunate or to render service to society. Many of such persons die with smaller estates than did these men; and, they take with them smaller souls, and leave a smaller esteem. The way of these men is manifestly the better.
Congress is again going after "the System" that prevails in the District of Columbia. It's been done before. The usual result is that one or two of the most exposed fellows are sacrificed and things go on as before.
Just so long as the citizens of the District are denied votes—and "pull" with a Congressman is more potent than merit—just so long will the system that prevails thrive.

A professional school devoted to the training of worthy colored men and women to become proficient Osteopathic Physicians.
A Course of four years study is given, leading to the degree of DOCTOR OF OSTEOPATHY.
The Osteopathic profession has a wide field and is full of opportunities.

SENTENCE
DOUBLE LETTER SENTENCE
Dear Editor: Here is my sentence of at least ten words, each word containing double letters, written with pencil.
FREE TICKETS TO DUNBAR AND
BROADWAY THEATRES
sion to the Dunbar Theatre or the Broadway Theatre.
All letters must be in the Tribune office, 920 U Street, Northwest, not later than 8 p.m. Wednesday.
NO SENTENCES TAKEN OVER
THE TELEPHONE
Address letters to: Editor, "Children's Page."
This feature will entail a little literary gymnastics. You are to make a complete sentence of not less than ten words; each word must contain one set of double letters.
The winners of this contest will be published in the issue of this paper on next Friday. Come to the office for your prizes. Cut out the blank above and show it to your friends. Suggest to them that if they write a sentence as here suggested, that they may win a ticket.
Here is a sample line: "All's well! good laddies!" suddenly yelled Commodore Dolittle, assuming command, speedily attacking three mutineers.
Do not think that your sentence will be worse than others which are submitted. Try to convince yourself that your sentence will be better, or, at least, just as good as any others sent in.
The main things to bear in mind are:
Each sentence must contain not less than ten words.
Each word must contain double letters.
You may send in as many sentences as you wish, providing that at least one coupon (as above) cut out of the Washington Tribune, accompanies them.
If more than ten words are used, every word must contain a double letter.
Do not make two words of one word such as "foot ball" (two words) for "football" (one word).
All of your friends, relatives, and neighbors can do likewise if they are under the age of 16 years. All we ask is that your entry reach this office by 8 o'clock Wednesday night.
Hyphenated words are permissable. The Washington Tribune will give one ticket each for the best sentences made according to the requirements made here.
These prize tickets cannot be used by persons over 16 years old.
The tickets will be good for admis-
from Germany; feldspar from Sweden; Manganese from the Caucasus; cork and pyrites from Spain; shellac from India; tin from the Malay states; tungsten from Japan; sodium carbonate from British East Africa; bismuth from Australia; cryolite from Greenland; cobalt and nickel from Ontario; molybdenum from Quebec, and nitre from Chile.
THANKS FROM MARGARET
Dear Editor: I received the two tickets and I thank you for your kindness. I haven't been to see the picture yet, but when I go I will write and tell you and the Tribunnes about it. I am sending in my double letter sentence for next week.

DOROTHY'S PET
TRIBUNITE'S PLEDGE
Dear Editor: I hope that you and all of the Tribunites are well. I have not written to you for a long long time. Now I am going to tell you about my pet.
1. I will never use the word "nigger."
My cat's name is Shriner and he is three yeras old. He is not a pretty cat but I like him just the same. He is gray and white, and he is very large. He sends his love to the pets of the other Tribunites.
2. I will learn all that I can about the history and traditions of my Race.
3. I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race, and I will champion my Race wherever I may hear such slander.
DOROTHY WARD (?)
A TRIP AROUND THE WORLD
4. I will be proud that I am a Negro because God made me one, and, being a Negro, I will do all that I can to add honor to my Race.
Dear Editor: There is a lot of the world right in our homes. If we will look at the electric bulb over the dining room table we will find potash
