Dr. WARFIELD AGAIN UNDER FIRE CLERKS CHARGE HEAD OF HOSPITAL FORCES THEM TO PAY FOR UNEATEN MEALS Hospital meal hours are inconvenient, they state. Breakfast is served at 7 a.m. and dinner at 5 a.m. If they are not on time at meal hours, they cannot eat but charges for the meals are made just the same. Some of the clerks live quite a distance from the hospital. Some have families. Some are attending evening school. These meal hours work a hardship upon them, they say. Dr. Warfield sought to "pass the buck" in this dispute by referring the clerks to the Secretary of the Interior, the hospital being under the Interior Department. He was directed to settle the dispute. He then advised the clerks that they would have to wait until the close of this fiscal year and until a new appropriation became available before an adjustment could be made. In the meantime, deductions are continuing to be made from the salaries of the clerks for meals at the rate of so many a month whether ezten or not. DUDLEY W'NDERS WHAT'LL BECOME OF IDLE ACTORS DUDLEY W'NDERS WHAT'LL BECOME OF IDLE ACTORS The outlook for show business as I see it is nothing to brag about. I am wondering what will become of the actors that worked the Columbia and other big circuits, as the fields were well supplied with them. We have all the attractions that we have places for; and a few idle at all times now. When the avenues are closed, what will become of these actors? Of course, they can do other work: they were not all brought up on the stage, but once an actor always an actor, is the way the present day actor sees it. I remember in days of long ago when old timers could not get work on the stage they would wait tables, get butlers' jobs, or porter in saloons, in fact they did almost any kind of light work. The women would get maid jobs, etc. But you would insult the present day actors to offer them jobs other than on the stage. Then to, we have more acts than we have places for the acts to be presented. The show business is off and may be off for the rest of this season. Not Making Money I can truthfully say that there (Continued on page 4) FIRST in Advertising and Circulation Dr. William A. Warfield, chief surgeon at Freedmen's Hospital, is involved in another row growing out of his administration of the hospital... This time it is a dispute with members of the hospital clerical force over deductions from their pay. They have filed with him a written protest against the practice of deducting charges for meals not eaten from their monthly pay. Members of the hospital clerical force request that they be paid their monthly salaries in full. They are willing to stop eating at the hospital. They say that no deductions are made from the pay of those members of the clerical staff and the engineering force who eat only one meal a day, but that those who eat two or three meals a day have deductions made from their month salaries for a month's subsistence regardless of whether the meals are eaten.

GRIMSHAW WIDELY KNOWN CITIZEN, DIES Walter Hannibal Grimshaw, for a length of time one of our leading local citizens, died at his residence, 924 S street, northwest, last Saturday at 4:20 p.m. Born in this city in September, 1881, Mr. Grimshaw attended the public schools here and in Brooklyn, New York. He graduated from the M Street High School in June of 1900. Mr. Grimshaw spent three years in the Howard University Medical School, and WALTER H. GRIMSHAW An old citizen dies at his home last Saturday. then entered the law department from which school he earned his degree in 1906. In 1901 Mr. Grimshaw received an appointment in the Congressional Library. After 18 years of efficient service, he resigned to enter the field of law. He went to Camden, New Jersey. In 1924, due to his failing health, he returned to Washington. His death, Saturday, came as a climax to three years of sickness during which, Mr. Grimshaw had never, until a few days prior to his death, been confined. Since his return to this city he has been in the employ of the National Benefit Insurance Company, as collector. He was a member of the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church. He is survived by his father William H. Grimshaw, his mother, Mrs. Carrie E. Grimshaw and three sisters, Mrs. Eva B. Fletcher, Mrs. Mamie Washington, and Mrs. Ruth Green of Newark, N.J. Funeral services were held Tuesday at 3:30 p.m. from his residence. Rev. W. L. Washington delivered the eulogy. HOWARDITES CREDITED FOR RADIO PROGRAM HOWARDITES CREDITED FOR RADIO PROGRAM In an article commenting on the radio program broadcast by WRC Wednesday, July 27, in which a number of students of Howard University participated, the Washington Times, in its column by Gardner Mack, "Rumping Around the Radio Dials," said: "The Howard Quartet, designated as the Agreeable Quartet, was under the direction of Lester Dorsey, baritone, who was heard several times during the winter as solist with the Howard Glee Club. The quartet also had Maurice Tibbs, pianist, and Albert Berger, violinist, the former being accompanist as well as assisting artist. "Dorsey produced the high spot of the entire evening program with his singing of the famous Negro work song, "Water Boy," with an effect of pathos, and crude philosophy that we've never heard given it. Equipped with a finely trained voice of exceptional quality, the singer used it to special advantage in this number. The interpretation by the pianist of Coleridge Taylor's "Wade in the Water," was another fine bit of musical intelligence. The quartet sang every song in its repertoire for its emotional value, and realized every atom of it." Washington Tribune Interior Department Officials Order Examiners Back to their Former Desks: Deny Segregation U. S. SUPREME COURT JUSTICE GRANTS STAY OF EXECUTION The execution of Nathan Bard and Bunyan Gleming has been stayed by Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes until the Supreme Court of the United States has had an opportunity to decide whether it would review the case. The two men are under death sentence imposed on a charge of rape. They have filed a petition in the Supreme Court for a review of the case at its next term beginning in October. The order by Justice Holmes was not announced by the clerk of the court untl last Wednesday. It was issued July 14, the day prior to the expiration of a stay of execution granted July 9 by Justice Louis D. Brandeis. In granting a stay of execution to the two convicted men, Justice Holmes filed an opinion declaring that it was granted because human lives were involved and he thought it proper that the Supreme Court should have an opportunity to decide whether it would review the case. The case came up from the state of Kentucky. B'SINESS LEAGUE PROGRAM MADE FOR ST. LOUIS ST.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 5, 1927 NO HEARING FOR PROF. GLENN 'TIL AUG. 19 Amplias H. Glenn, retired head of the department of languages of divisions 10 to 13 of the District public schools, must languish in St. Elizabeth's Hospital for the insane until August 19 without a lunacy hearing. He was committed ther. for mental observation at the instance of his wife, Mrs. Daisy Glenn, an employee of the Associated Charities, on July 16. She and her sister-in-law, Mrs. Inez Bruce, and Dr. Algernon B. Jackson and Dr A. M. Curtis made id赋妓 that Mr. Glenn was in need of mental treatment. Mr. Glenn is entitled to a lunacy hearing within 30 days after his commitment. There will be no lunacy hearings in the District Supreme Court before August 19. His condition "in some ways is pretty good and in other ways not so good." Dr. Arthur P. Noyes, acting superintendent of St. Elizabeth's hospital, declared Monday. He said that his condition is the result of an organic disease, chorea, commonly known as St. Vitus dance. Friends and associates of Mr. Glenn, however, insist that he is not insane but simply suffering from a physical ailment. They hint that domestic troubles may have been the cause for any irrational act he may have done. They fear his continued confinement in an insane asylum may result in his becoming insane. Mr. Glenn himself prefers treatment for his physical ailment at John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Md., or by a specialist at his home, 941 S street, northwest. He receives monthly retirement pay from the District public schools. ELK INJUNCTION PERMANENTLY DISSOLVED ELK INJUNCTION PERMANENTLY DISSOLVED WHITE PLAINS, N.Y.-The injunction in New York state against the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World is no longer of force and effect. Justice George H. Taylor, Jr., of the New York Supreme Court permanently vacated it last Friday, a week after he had suspended its operation during the period from August 21 to 27 to permit the Elks grand lodge to be held in New York city. The injunction, which he dissolved, had been in force since July 18, 1908. It restrained the colored organization from holding themselves out as Elks in New York state. While it had not been enforced, Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson would not consent to the holding of the 1927 Elks convention in New York city so long as it existed. Motion Filed Attorneys Pope Billups and Ellis Rivers, representing Manhattan, Monarch and Imperial lodges of New York city, filed a motion on July 20 asking that the injunction be vacated. This motion was supported by affidavits made by Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson and Grand Secretary George E. Bates and William T. Phillips, secretary of a white Elks lodge in New York city. They declared that there had been a change of attitude on the part of the white Elks toward colored Elks. The motion was heard on July 22. Perry W. Howard, Grand Legal Adviser, appeared for the grand lodge. White Elks offered no opposition. On July 25, Justice Taylor granted partial relief, suspending the operation of the injunction during the week of the grand lodge. Last Friday he dissolved the injunction and dismissed the suit brought by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks against the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World. MISS MARIE SCOTT WEDS ROBERT H. OGLE Miss Marie Scott, a teacher at Shaw Junior High School, and a popular member of the younger set here, was quietly married Tuesday to Robert H. Ogle, according to information received here from Philadelphia where the ceremony was be believed to have been performed. The newlyweds are spending their honeymoon traveling thru New York state and Canada. Mr. Ogle is a graduate of Cornell and for a number of years has been a clerk with the Senate Committee on Appropriations. Where the Ogles will make their home when they return to Washington is not known because friends and relatives know little of their plans. FED. OF WOMEN'S CLUBS CONVENES AT MET. A. M. E. The Thirty-first Annual Convention of the Northeastern Federation of Women's Clubs is now in progress at the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church, this city, Mrs. M. Madre Marshall, president of the local Federation presided at the opening ceremonies Wednesday night. The convention was welcomed to the city by Commissioner Proctor L. Dougherty. Commissioner Dougherty, in his address, expressed at length the qualities of the city fathers, and the duties and powers of the present board of Commissioners. He announced a desire on the part of the various commissioners, to upbuild Washington as a representative and national city. Denounces Segregation Miss Elizabeth C. Carter, of Bedford, Mass., president of the Federation, responded to the Commissioner's address. She took occasion to impress upon the gentleman, the deep regret and chagrin the delegation from Massachusetts and the northeastern section of the country experienced in witnessing the practice of whole-hearted segregation in numerous Federal departments, and the steady growth of impending discrimination. So eloquent and thorough was Miss Carter's delivery that Mr. Dougherty was much impressed, according to statements he made at the close of the meeting. Mrs. Mary B. Lightfoot welcomed the delegates on behalf of the District Federation of Women's Clubs. She represented Mrs. Virginia White Speel. Greetings of the public schools were extended by assistant superintendent Eugene A. Clarke. Other speakers at the opening ceremonies were Lieut. Col. West A| Hamilton, the Rev. W. H. Thomas, and Mrs. Madre Marshall. Mrs. Nelson Speaks On Thursday, Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson, of Wilmington, Del., spoke to the conference. Greetings, sent to Dr. Adena C. E. Minott, chairman of the anti-lynching department by Mrs. Francis R. Keyser, were read to the delegates Thursday morning. Mrs. Keyser is one o. the founders of the Federation and Dean Emeritus of the Daytona-Cookman College, Daytona, Fla. She is an invalid, confined to a wheel chair. Mrs. L. M. Fayerweather, president of the Brooklyn and Long Island Women's Community Center Welfare Workers, is present in Washington for the purpose of presenting to the Northeastern Federation the deeds to a beautiful home in Newport, R.I., for their use as a headquarters. The convention in general has been an interesting and successful one to date. There are about 300 delegates from over the entire northeastern section of the country. Election of officers is to take place this morning, and the selection of the next meeting place will also be held. Invitations have been issued from Newport, R.I. and New Haven, Conn., one of which will no doubt be accepted. ET, N.W. DER der Exam Deny Seg THOUGHT PRO NEGROES IN WOULD BE OFFICE: 920 U STREET, N.W.

BEN WASHINGTON MAKING "REP" Benjamin Washington, Armstrong Technical High School instructor, is gaining quite a reputation as a student in the class Modern Methods of Teaching General Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Mass. Under Prof. J. R. Lunt, Supervisor of the General Science Department in Boston public school Mr. Washington is proving himself a capable and apt pupil. Selected recently to give a demonstration lesson, he did so without a flaw. So thoroughly was the lesson presented that not only the teachers and pupils extended hearty congratulations to Mr. Washington, but Prof. Lunt himself said, among other things, "for wealth of material, practical value, simplicity, and human method, the lesson was an excellent piece of work, masterfully done and beautifully presented." Mr. Washington is the only colored teacher in the class. In recent years he has had summer courses at Harvard anc at Armour Institute, Chicago, Ill. RETIRES FROM POLICE FORCE AFTER 32 YRS. Policeman Robert Tapscott, closed 32 years of service on the Metropolitan police force when he was retired Monday, August 1. His retirement came as a result of his tition to the board. He thus closed a brilliant career on the police force. When officer Tapscott turned in at Number 12 precinct last Monday, his fellow officers gathered about him while Captain Plemmons made POLICEMAN TAPSCOTT a short speech and then presented him with a travelling bag as a token from the police force. For 32 years Officer Tapscott has gone about his duty in a manner that won the admiration of all who came in contact with him. He was appointed to the force, July 1, 1895, and assigned to Number 8 precinct which was then in charge of Lieutenant Gessford. After three years and eight months of service he was promoted to the bicycle squad, being the first Negro to receive such distinction. In 1899 he was again promoted and made a mounted policeman which assignment he kept until his retirement. During his service on the force he acted as escort for Presidents McKinley, Roosevelt, Taft and Wilson. He has never had a charge filed against him, nor has he been reprimanded by any of his superiors. His entire service was spent in Number 8, Number 9 and Number 12 precincts. Officer Tapscott was married to Miss Mary A. West in 1894. She was the daughter of Policeman William H. West who served a number of years on the force. While assigned as a mounted policeman Officer West arrested President Grant on a charge of speeding—not in an automobile however, but in the Presidential carriage. He ordered the President precinct where he left collateral. ceman Tapscott with his wife will leave Saturday, August 6, for his farm in Faquier County, Va., which is about six miles below Warrenton. Here he expects to devote his time to farming. MRS. ELLA M. LYNCH, VETERAN TEACHER, DIES Miss Ella Mae Lynch, active member in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and a life-long resident of this city, died on Sunday, July 31 at 7:40 a.m. after a brief illness. Miss Lynch, born in Washington 59 years ago, received her primary and secondary education in the schools here. She began teaching at the age of 18 and in her forty-first year as a teacher was a member of the faculty at Lincoln School. A breakdown generally, accounted for her having stopped her work early in May that she might obtain a much needed rest. Prof. Neval H. Thomas spoke lengthily on her work when called upon at her funeral, held Wednesday from Nineteenth Street Baptist Church. Reverends Parker and Powell eulogized. Prayer was offered by Rev. J. A. Booker. Miss Lynch leaves to mourn their loss four brothers: Thomas M. Lynch, cf Oakland, Cal. Arthur W. Lynch, of Philadelphia, Dr. H. C. Lynch, and Ellis Vernon Lynch of this city and two sisters: Mrs. Evelyn King, and Mrs. Lula Rodriguez, both of this city. Let our classified column rent that vacant room. Call Potomac 1667. IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE PRICE FIVE CENTS FIRE miners regation MOTION OF FILE DEPT. APPRECIATED Reports of the extension of segregation of colored employees in the pension bureau were denied Tuesday by Interior Department officials. According to reports, all colored clerks in the pension bureau were put to work together in the filing division on August 1. Four colored pension examiners had been segregated from white pension examiners on July 19. E. C. Finney, acting secretary of the Interior, denied that there had been any move to segregate colored employees in the pension bureau. Dr. Hubert Work, the secretary of the Interior, is in the West on official business. The first knowledge he had concerning any separation of colored and white employees in the pension bureau came from reading colored newspapers, Judge Finney said. He made inquiries concerning the charge, he stated, and was informed that there had been two colored pension examiners in one room and two in another and they had been moved. They made complaint of the change, he said, and the possibility is that they will be put back where they were. Negroes Promoted Regarding the file room, he stated that he had been advised of two promotion of two colored employees. One was made chief of the filing division and the other assistant chief. He had no knowledge, however, of any general segregation of colored employees in the pension bureau. "We are not segregating colored people down there," Judge Finney said. "We have got some colored people in the medical division, a colored doctor working in the same room with white employees." The report is not true. E. W. Morgan, deputy commissioner of pensions, declared. He denied that there had been any segregation. He said that there had been some reorganization of the pension bureau.

TEN A Liberal Progressive Independent "I DO NOT CHOOSE" Tuesday afternoon President Coolidge sent to the country a single sentence of ten words, eight of them words of one syllable. He said, "I do not choose to run for president in 1928." Already thousands of words, making columns of printed matter, have been used in an attempt to explain the meaning of these ten words. Those who favor the renomination of the President as the candidate of the Republican party give to them one meaning. Those who are looking elsewhere for a candidate find in them another meaning. This search for the meaning of the President's announcement recalls the famous conversation between Madame de Stael and Talleyrand, Madame de Stael said: "Words are the jewels that express thoughts." "No, madame," said Talleyrand, "words are caskets that conceal thoughts." Talleyrand was a statesman, while Madame de Stael was a mere woman of letters. There need be no mystery about the meaning of the President's words. Of course he does not choose to run for president. The choice is with the Republican National Convention. Calvin Coolidge did not choose to run for governor of Massachusetts, or vice president of the United States. The choice was that of the conventions that named him for the particular offices. If the reaction of the Republicans is favorable to the President's announcement, he will be renominated next year and will accept the nomination. If it is unfavorable he will not be nominated. The announcement will develop the situation as regards candidates. From now on the political pot will advance from a gentle simmer to energetic boiling. Prophecy at this stage of the game would be MUSIC FORUM MUSIC FORUM By Wellington Adams The average person starting out to study music nowadays certainly is an interesting problem, although unconscious of it. The teacher to be successful must necessarily be a student of human nature, a psychologist and pedagog if you please. One starts out with a determination to learn music but nine times out of ten that pupil's determination is an empty gesture, an imaginery fancy, a premature inspiration born over night. Comes the pupil, book in hand, with the thought that musical talent depends upon good looks, good standing or something similar to that, funds aplenty and what not. He or she would learn to play as thorly as the teacher within a fortnight or a quarter, regardless of a lack of mentality, concentrative power, cohesive action and spontanity of effort. Students would learn how to play the most popular blues, jazzes or ballads at once but do not wish to repeat a single lesson to attain it. They would like to surprise home folks and friends with their "wonderful" gift within a limited period, but if the teacher would tell the truth, five out of six times they would be found back in their everyday routine job instead of wending their way to a music studio. Ninety per cent of music students are disillusioned after a short period of study because their desires are founded upon "get-music-quick" plans. They want to get music as quickly as they would get rich quickly. What are we going to do with the woman who wants to study singing but really only wants to learn a few songs well; or the piano student who applies for such a course but desires only to play a few jazz pieces; or the violin student who likewise wants to get in a jazz orchestra after a few days' study? Such pupils should never be discouraged however because of such inclination. The thoughtful teacher will devise means of leading their unguided aspirations into larger, more serious channels causing them to merge their identity in the subject at hand. In no other way may successful pupils be moulded or guided in their love and quest for music of whatever class. They can be made to aspire to better music; they can be made to see the hopelessness of their position unconsciously thru corrective measures; they can be made to develop a more anxious but patient attitude while losing their frivolous ideas and mannerisms. Indeed they can be made ambitious music students instead of mere figureheads as is oftimes the case. Modern methods and modern minds make up in aggregate results what obsolete systems have tried to do in a much longer period. Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON BUNE PUBLISHING COMPANY risky business; but the announcement certainly does not take President Coolidge out of the running. SEGREGATION The revocation of the order in the Interior Department segregating certain Negro examiners in the Pension Bureau of the Interior Department is a tribute to the alertness and watchfulness of the Negro press in this community and vicinity. It shows that a free, fearless nad untrammeled press is the surest safeguard of a people's rights. Again it illustrates the truthfulness of the old maxim that, "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." It is a reproach to a government "conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal," as Abraham Lincoln said in the immortal Gettysburg speech, that it is possible for a thing of this kind to occur; that persons in the Federal service should be branded and quarantined as lepers are, and that too by men claiming to be members of the political party whose chief glory is that it abolished slavery and saved the union. The time has come in this country for a searching of hearts, for the taking of observations to find out who really is attached to the principles imbedded in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States. This is our country, the country of all men owing allegiance to it, and subject to fight for it; and if is our duty to stand for every right all the time. The segregator is in places of administrative authority in the Departments in Washington. Look out for him; and when the opportunity comes, impale him on the spear of the law and the ballot. Ability to concentrate and mental agility are two of the most powerful weapons in the world of music and with patience and earnest application the student may accomplish much in music where otherwise it necessarily would be found harder to succeed. The Fall and Winter music seasons are almost here and preparation should be made by all who are interested in the study of music to decide upon the school or private teacher and course desired and enter upon the work with enthusiasm and determination to make it a banner year for them. While many have gone on vacations others have studied and gained through the warm season still all should be happy over the approaching year of work with a receptive mind and open heart to do their work well. The "get-music-quick" age is at hand but with no evident success, so far. King Cotton Creating a New Dixie West of the Rockies 一 NEGRO FARMERS SURPLANTING MEXICANS AND JAPANESE IN COTTTON DISTRICTS OF CALIFORNIA AND ARIZONA. LOS ANGELES, Calif. (PCNB) —But few who read of the great Pacific Southwest know or realize that from six to ten million acres in California alone are suitable for growing cotton. And that in the great interior valleys in which the climate is suitable for cotton, lies the world's greatest area of rich, level irrigated land. California, the most varied of all states in the Union, climatically speaking, has 128,000 acres in cotton plantings this year, a decrease of 34,000 acres harvested in 1926. These entire plantings are in the Sacramento Valley, the San Joaquín Valley, the Imperial Valley and the Palo Verde Valley. Across the Colorado River from the Palo Verde Valley lies Arizona with 140,000 acres in cotton, 46,000 acres of which is planted Pima Egyptian long staple cotton. Perpetual sunshine, lack of boll weevil, elimination of the dreaded wet June of the South and water when you wish it, are the magnets which are drawing the Negro cotton farmer from the South. In the Palo Verde Valley, a day's auto ride from Los Angeles the Negro has located, bought land or homesteaded and is developing a New Dixie West of the Rockies. In a vivid description of what the Negro is accomplishing in this district as well as in the homesteading area across the Colorado River in Arizona, John Owens, writing in the "American Life Magazine" says: "California and orange blossoms are familiar associations, but the fact that the cotton blossom is about to supersede the orange blos- ```markdown ``` som in social and economic importance is news to many. California already produces more cotton than Missouri, and each year the cotton acreage is being expanded. So important has cotton production become in the economic life of the state that several spinning mills are already located about Oakland, and the various commercial associations of the state are seriously considering making cotton-milling a major industry. "Whenever we find cotton we may look for the Negro." Cotton is raised in quantity in three parts of the state. This article will deal with the Palo Verde Valley since cotton and alfalfa are practically the only crops produced there, and conditions there are typical of all the state cotton belts. . . "Agriculture is carried on here through irrigation methods as the rain-fall amounts to practically a negligible quantity. All the land farmed is reclaimed desert land, the source of water-supply being the Colorado River. The region has enjoyed considerable publicity recently due to the discussion and filibuster in the last Congress over the Boulder Canyon Dam Bill. This bill provided for control and storage of the Colorado, the development of hydro-electric plants, and the further extension of irrigation projects, converting desert areas into tillable localities. The climate is very mild the year round, there being practically no winter. During the summer it is extremely warm, the usual range being from 110 to 117 degrees Fahrenheit; from September to March cooler weather is encountered. The days are mild but the nights are cool reaching a freezing temperature during January and February. At no time during the year does the weather reach a freezing temperature during the day. "Many of the farmers raise two crops each year, a winter wheat or some other hardy grain such as barley is raised during the winter season and is harvested about March. This leaves ample time to plant cotton. Due to the usual late appearance of frost cotton planted the first week of June will have time to mature, although an early frost sometimes curtails the production of a second crop of late cotton."

AUGUST 5, 1927 SAY AFRICAN NEGROES FOUGHT INVADERS SAY AFRICAN NEGROES FOUGHT INVADERS NEW YORK, N.Y./ Aug. 4—"Not a whit more spirited and determined was the North American Indian in keeping out the European invader than was the Negro in protecting his native land." So says the famous Negro author and journalist, J. A. Rogers, in an interesting article on "Bambaata—Leader of the Zulu Revolt" in the August number of The Messenger, a Negro magazine published in this city. "If the Indian can point to his King Philips," continues the writer, "his Geronimos, and Sitting Bulls, the Negro can point to his Ceteayos, Lobenguelas, and Mosilikatzes. As Sitting Bull wiped out the entire American expedition sent against him, so Ceteayo killed the entire British force sent against him in Isandhlwana. In West Africa, Samory, called the Black Napoleon of the Sudan, resisted the French, as in Ashanti, Kofi Karakari, did the English; or in Abvsinnia, Menelik did the Italian." Mr. Rogers then tells the thrilling story of Bambaata, leader of the great native uprising in South Africa in 1906. By some clever propaganda Bambaata succeeded in arousing all Zululand against the whites. Although short of rifles and ammunition, and forced to do most of their fighting with assigues and spears, the Zulus defeated and killed several expeditions of whites and native police sent against them. Finally the whites became so alarmed that they declared martial law and brought to bear all of their military machinery to crush the dangerous Bambaata and his men. This, because of their machine guns and rifles, they were able to do, after several desperate battles in which the Zulus with great bravery charged to the very mouth of the machine guns. The rebellion lasted nine months and cost the natal government over five million dollars before it was finally crushed. Mr. Rogers, who writes regularly for The Messenger, tells the story in his usual excellent manner and the reader's interest is sustained to the very end. Truly a marvelous account of Negro courage in the face of great odds is vividly told in this article. Enthusiasts are combing the auction rooms of Paris for objects of primitive African art. Such objects, particularly African musical instruments are bringing record prices, showing that the fad for Negro art is growing rapidly. According to the New York Herald-Tribune, several Negroes have been selected from this country and transported to Moscow where they are being given instruction in the theories and operation of Communism. —with— --- KIDDIES' CORNER C. LESLIE FRAZIER, Editor Checkers Meets Mr. Fairfax A week later, Checkers left Sacramento for Hollywood. Arriving there he stepped from a taxi in front of the broad, world-known Neo-Golden-Neo Picture Corporation. Upon entering he stood gazing open-mouthed for several minutes at the sights that held his attention. He walked slowly up the marble steps so intent on gazing at the wonderful sights, that he failed to observe that he had walked five flights of steps beyond the floor to which he had to go. Deeply embarrassed at this, Checkers entered an elevator, and soon found himself at his proper destination. Then after introducing himself to an outer-office employee, Checkers produced the contract and gave it to the woman. Seated, he settled down to reading a magazine. All of a sudden, a commotion arose in the doorway. Office boys and other employees rushed toward the confusion. They formed an aisle, through which walked the stout, puffing man who had given our hero his contract. With a police dog on one side and a giant St. Bernard on the other, the man strutted on past Checkers. The police dog looked at Checkers and wagged his long tail in a friendly motion. Then with a jerk, the dog bounded towards Checkers. The stout man turned around and cried out, "Don—Don—, Well, Holy Moses, look who's here!" Smiling, the man extended his hand toward the overjoyed brown-faced Checkers. We will skip over Checker's first day in the studios, but I'll add that that was a day full of new and interesting experiences for him. He was to return in two days to have his role read to him. Checkers had no difficulty in learning his part. Within four weeks his work at the studio was completed. He had made friends with many of the stars. He was popular with them and also with the extras. Mr. Vincent's took a great liking to Checkers. One day he invited Checkers to dinner. That night, Checkers was the guest of Mr. Vincent's at the exclusive Van Tellengen Hotel. Later on, Mr. Vincent's informed Checkers that he was expecting a visit from a friend of his, who was a naval officer and who operated a mail plane between New York and Hollywood. Checkers looked forward to the arrival of this, no doubt, interesting person. At last a trim, sharp featured and well built man appeared at the doorway, smiling and looking around for his table and party. Mr. Vincentis bellowed out, "Hey—Say! Jack, here I am, over here!" The stranger turned and strode over to the table of Mr. Vincentis. "Hello there, Vincy, old boy, how's tricks?" Checkers stood up while Mr. Vincentis gave his friend a hearty halloo. Turning to Checkers, Mr Vincentis said, "Checkers, meet an old friend of mine; Mr. Fairfax. Checkers is our latest find; he is to star in a race track picture. He is a fine jockey." After the two men and Checkers had chatted awhile, Checkers said, "Mr. Fairfax, please tell me something about your airplane trips." The man addressed regarded Checkers closely, and slowly his face lit up with a winning smile. "Why, my boy, who could tell a more interesting tale than that of yours when it comes to adventure if all that has been told of you is true? Believe me, you've been the talk of the town and your pluck in winning the derby was a notable accomplishment. Don't let your color hold you back. Go ahead and give the world the best that is in you." Checkers smiled graciously. The evening wore away, but the three seated at the table didn't care a rap about the passing of the evening. At nine the following morning the phone buzzed in Apartment 783, and Checkers, its occupant, drowsily answered with a huge sigh, "Hello—this is he—Mr. Jack? How are you?" The person at the other end of the phone responded, "Hello there, old socks—listen, when I arrived home last night a telegram was awaiting me and it stated that I must be in New York Sunday night by nine o'clock—of course, I am going in my plane and what I would like to know is would you like to go. I am to leave town within the hour." That question came to Checkers like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky! Checkers eagerly answered, "Why, sir, I'll have to ask Mr. Vincent." In less than an hour a taxi entered the broad driveway of the Bayview Aerial Base and stopped. Two persons rushed out of it. The fare paid, they bound up the steps of the main building there. Into the office they panted, "We want to see Mr. Fairfax." Mr. Vincent said in short gasps of breath. He and Checkers looked at each other and smiled. “Sure, follow me,” replied the office boy. They followed him. A short while later found them beside the cockpit of Lieut. Fairfax's plane, the “Nebraska.” Donning togs, Checkers was helped in by Mr. Fairfax. Following him, the latter climbed in. The propeller was given a whirl and the huge plane lurched forward and with a roar tore down the hatchway. Waving CHAPTER III.

Its membership is open to all boys from ages of ten to twenty-two who desire to associate themselves together for self-betterment. Local units can be formed wherever the desire for organized self-betterment exists to the extent that a united effort will be made to band the boys together. Assembly Has Fine Aims The aims and purposes of the Boys' General Assembly are: To instill into the minds of our youth a desire to earn and to save. To teach self-independence by developing industrial knowledge and desires. To instill in our youth the high principles of honesty, uprightness and manliness. To infuse a spirit of collective co-operation and unity in the mind of each Buddie. To develop a community pride such as will inspire every Buddie to do his bit to help his community and its enterprises to grow big and wax strong from a Christian, moral and a business standpoint. To lead them generally and morally in the higher spheres of life as they advance into manhood. Every boy who joins an Assembly local takes certain obligations that are intended to impress upon him the duties of good citizenship. Among these is an obligation to open and maintain a bank account; and in this he is given a most impressive lesson in thrift and cooperation. Persons, especially men interested in boys' work, are requested to communicate with Joseph Crosby, organizer and general commander of the B.G.A., at 2313 West Lake street, Chicago, Ill., for particulars for organizing. The sun is very hot today; the children are playing in the shade, and many of them are in swimming. The flowers are pretty today. Lots of people are going to the country where it is cool. I wish that I could go to the country on this hot summer day. A LETTER FROM WALTER 629 Fairmont St., N.W.

He sang before the king and queen of England at Buckingham Palace in April, 1921. In 1923, he was awarded the Sping- nard Medal. Mr. Hayes has made many successful public appearances. He not only sings his own language fluently and faultlessly but sings German, French and Italian equally as well according to leading critics. Mr. Hayes is recognized by leading critics as one of the world's leading tenors— irrespective of race. He was born in Georgia. THE TRIBUNITE'S PLEDGE 1. I will never use the word "nigger." 2.

Attention to Every Detail TWO AFTER WAR TIMES A Boy's Life in Reconstruction Days THE SOLDIER SCHOOL MASTERS The people of Jackson county reacted but slowly to the new condition, and they are to be pitied rather than blamed that the Negroes had more trouble in getting their bearings than the white people. They had been expecting freedom for a long time, and praying for it as they expected, but when it came to them of a sudden they were so surprised and stunned that they did not know what to do with it. The changed attitude of the white people towards them, the hostility which was everywhere evident, gave them a great deal of concern. The readjustment of their labor relations was a problem with which they were in no wise prepared to cope, and yet it was the one which forced itself upon them most persistently. They were in the midst of their troubles when a detachment of Union soldiers was quartered among them. This was a very great event. It angered and imbittered the whites, and made them feel all the more keenly the stubborn fact that they were a conquered people. Their attitude towards the soldiers in blue was pronouncedly antagonistic. They would have no fellowship whatever with the officers of the soldiers. Colonel Charles M. Hamilton and Major William J. Purman had charge of the detachment. They were very superior men and played a conspicuous and honorable part in the Reconstruction politics of Florida. They made friends with the Negro people of course, and the few white loyalists, to but all intents and purposes, socially, they were proscribed and ostracized, and remained so to the end. It was that way with the Union soldiers and the whites in every community where the former were assigned to duty. They represented the Union government in preserving law and order, and in the proper adjustment of the labor relations of the former masters and slaves, and they had charge of the important work of the Freedmen's Bureau. They furnished Bibles to all the Negro people who wished to have them, and they married all of the Negro men and women who had contracted slave unions and desired to have these legalized. Few, indeed, failed to avail themselves of the chance to do this. Another important event was the opening of a Freedmen's school in the Negro church. Sergeant Smith and Private Davenport were detailed to the work of teaching the little black and colored children their first lessons in the rudiments of an education. Strange to say, a large number of young Negro women also attended the school. The teachers were splendid men and the children simply idolized them. Indeed, to the Negro people the Union soldiers and their splendid officer, appeared to have been sent directly from heaven to help them in their trouble. Perhaps it was so. The school was crowded with anxious and eager pupils from the beginning, and the teachers had very smooth sailing, as all of the pupils were nervously anxious to master Webster's blue back peller. There are many living to-day who remember the little blue back speller from which they got their first start in mastering an education, in small or great measure. My son Timothy was as eager and apt a pupil as any of the others. He soon got the book learning fever, as many others did, and he seemed to absorb naturally the rudiments of learning. He soon became a favorite of the teachers as well as of his scholomates. He had a winning way about him, and he had a knack of leading the others in school work and the childish KENNEDY Blinding Pain at Certain Times "I was very weak and thin and used to suffer with very severe headaches," says Miss Annie Mae Brown, (1221 R. Whitaker St, Birmingham, Ala.) "I would be almost blind, the pain was so severe," she says. "This was when I was just entering the upper classes at school. I didn't want to get behind. I suffered with my back and sides, too. Someone suggested that my mother give me Cardui, for which I am very thankful. I took 6 bottles at that time, and was soon strong and well and did not have severe headaches or pains at certain periods. "Twice since I have been a grown woman I have taken Cardui, and it never failed to help me."

He was also a good fisherman and huttsman, and flying the kite and building traps for birds appeared to come natural to him. The soldiers had dress parade twice a day, morning and evening, and all the archins of the village were on hand to watch it. They thought it was the grandest thing ever, and it was, as far as they were concerned. They were transported by the drum beating and bugle blowing. Such music they never dreamed of. And what heroes were the drummer boy and the bugler to them. The drummer boy was a son of the Sergeant Smith who had charge of the Freedmen's school. He and Timothy became fast friends, but he was a favorite of all the punils of the school. There were no public school system in the South before the Reconstruction governments made them possible. The whites had an academy in most of the counties, to which those who could afford the luxury sent their children. The vast number of poor white people, who owned no slaves and who lived a hand-to-mouth existence, grew up in ignorance. These poor whites, who had nothing to lose and nothing to gain by the outcome of the civil war, made up the larger part of the Confederate armies. They venerated the white aristocratic class, and class it was, and hated the slaves, although there was a great deal more social intercourse between the two classes than is generally known or believed. The slaves were in a position to render these poor whites, especially the poor women, many services, and during the war period, when the men were away fighting to perpetuate slavery, their wives and daughters were often supplied with the food without which they would have gone hungry or starved. It was this way in Marianna, and remained so some years after the close of the civil war, as many of the husbands and sons of the poor women fell in battle and were never more heard of. The bugle call of the soldiers for afternoon drill and parade was heard for miles around and was the first and sweetest music Timothy and the other freed people had ever heard. Have they heard any sweeter since? I doubt it. (To be continued next week.) Let the TRIBUNE follow you or your vacation. Announcement MILTON C.

Cook had been promoted to chief of the files division and Edward W. Brooke and Robert S. Nichols were made assistant chiefs. Finney Makes Report After an exhaustive investigation of alleged segregation in the Interior Department, acting Secretary Finney made public a report of his findings. It is as follows: "There are approximately 3,500 employees in the Interior Department in the District of Columbia. Of this number 428 are colored. Their positions range from laborer and messenger to the professional grades, and comprise clerks, stenographers and typists, nurses, engineers, mechanics, cooks, map printers pharmacists, dietitians, physicians, lawyers and other classifications. The salaries range from $960 to $5400 per annum. "A reorganization of several units of the Pension Office was made effective on August 1, 1927. They were made to expedite the movement of work through the Bureau." Negro Made Chief "The desirability of combining the separate filing units of the Bureau of Pensions and placing them under one responsible head had long been under consideration. Coincident with the changes recited above, these main filing units were combined and raised, to the dignity of a Division, which was placed in charge of a colored employee as chief and a colored employee as assistant. This is the first instance in the history of the Pension Office that a colored man has been given the important post of Chief of Division. His promotion and the promotion of his assistant replaced a white chief and assistant chief of division. "The purpose of the consolidation was not to segregate colored employees but to place an important unit of the Pension Office completely in their charge. The new division consists of 43 colored employees, and to secure the necessary number of colored employees to man the new unit, involved the transfer of 22 colored employees, who were already engaged on file work in various sections of the office.

Eight of them were already in the Aumitted Files under a white chief, who was displaced when the files were combined with the new Files Division. Three colored the clerks in the Board of Review were also transferred to the new Files Division. "The white employees, formerly in the various units which now comprise the Files Division, were transferred to the small temporary file sections still maintained by the Medical Division and Board of Review. "The Pension Office has 62 colored employees, and other than the instances cited above, there has been practically no change in their placement. All of the messengers are in their former locations. A colored physician who occupies the position of Medical Reviewer, is still in a room with white physicians. A colored clerk in the S. E. Division has not been changed. A messenger on the Board of review continues in his position. A messenger in the Chief Clerk's room was not changed. A colored clerk in the Deputy Commissioner's room was not moved. A colored messenger in the Disbursing Division was not changed. . . No Complaints "There has been no complaint in the Pension Office with respect to the moves except in the case of four examiners, who in the general organization which took effect on August 1, were placed on similar work in a room by themselves. This involved the transfer of only one colored employee, the other three already being on the same work. This seems to be the source of complaint, and the condition was immediately corrected when objection was raised. . . . VITAPHONE COMPANY RECORDING ACTS HOLLYWOOD, Calif.

Of course we will have a profitable week now and then but the losing week off-sets it, and the houses that are not breaking even are losing money—none of them are making money at present. When the season opens in September, say about Labor Day, from then on the managers expect business to pick up. They expect to get their losses back with proper interests. Still I believe that if we had the right attractions, something new and novel, the houses would all do better business. But how can we do this when the actors do not learn anything new? If they offered novelties I doubt whether the managers themselves would take a chance and accept them, for I have offered real money-getting acts to the managers, Mrs. Katie B. Smith, who was operated on at Carson's Hospital, Washington, D.C., is now at the home of her sister, Mrs. Fannie Harden, 709 N. Payne street.

Get Together I really think that a meeting should be called between the officers of the Theatre Owners Booking Association and the managers on the circuit. I would advise an open meeting and have the actors represented by such men as Irvin Miller, Tutt Whitney and a number of others that space will not permit me to mention. Any producer who has something to offer should be present. I believe that with a real get-together meeting like this, we could invigorate the show business. We could get the things that are on our chests off and have a better understanding. And if we failed in this, we would not be any worst off than we are at present. We could do not harm, so it is well worth the time to try the get-together meeting. The next question is where. Well, it should be called in a city that is centerally located, to give the directors and managers a chance to be present. But by all means it should be called somewhere. JOSEPH THOMPSON, OLD CITIZEN, DIES The death of Joseph Thompson at his home, 417 Eighth street, southwest, on Sunday last, marks the close of the career of one of Washington's oldest residents and churchmen. Born 76 years ago in Orange County, Virginia, Mr. Thompson came to this city in his youth, and has resided here ever since. At the age of 20 years, he married Miss Rebecca Bowen, now deceased, who was the daughter of the late Anthony Bowen, to whose unabated zeal in the interest of education, the well-known schoolhouse bearing his name, was dedicated. Of this union, eight children were born, six of whom lived to attain their majority and five of whom survive him. He early connected himself with the Saint Paul A.M.E. Church of this city, having joined there August 1, 1876. After six months' service, he was elected a trustee and later as chairman of that board, serving in this capacity with credit and distinction for a period of almost 50 years and up to the time of his death. The deceased was a blacksmith by trade, and for many years conducted such a business at Ninth and F streets, and at Fourteenth and B streets, southwest, just across from the old Bureau and Engraving building. He retired from business 20 years ago. He was also widely known because of his interest in all affairs designed for the moral and civic betterment of this city and particularly with regards to the section which so long claimed him as a resident.

Gaskins Holly, daughter of the late John T. and Mrs. Phoebe Gaskins and a well known figure in this city, died at her residence, 1201 T street, northwest, on Sunday, July 31 at 10:30 a.m. Mrs. Holly was born in Newport, R.I., but spent most of her life in this city as a result of her parents having moved here when she was very young. She attended the District public schools, and after graduating from Howard University returned to them as teacher. She taught several years before her marriage to Dr. Lucius Holly, following which, she went with him to Kansas City. Mrs. Holly was an exceptional musician, and devoted much time in its study. She was a talented producer as well as an individual who thoroughly appreciated the opera. The two operasas she produced for the benefit of the Young Women's Christian Association in 1926 are "The National Flower." and "The House that Jack Built." Surviving Mrs. Holly is a son and a brother, Lucius Holly, of Detroit, and Dr. Ambrose E. Gaskins, local dentist.

City-wide Interest in Big Aquatic Meet Already Manifest Arlington Athletics Climb; Anacostia Smothers Nationals City-wide Arlingto Sam's Scripts Let's devote the column this week to comments on the city's various leading teams. Dissension in the camp of the Washington Black Sox is a serious menace to that team, and unless the players are made to abide by the wishes of their manager, whether they think him capable or not, the club is in danger of complete collapse. With the acquisition of Eveleth (Keystone) Davis, the Sox looked like a different team last Sunday. Davis, formerly of the LeDroit Tigers, is considered one of the leading catchers in Washington. Able to boast of such receivers as Davis, Gillespie and Greenfield, the Black Sox are now, without a doubt, far in front of any other team in the Capital in the back-stopping department. The Oriental Tigers have proved that they are head and shoulders above their nearest rivals of local candlots. In some positions they are as good as, if not better than, most any combination in town Smith, at first base, is, in the writer's opinion, the best in the city, with the possible exception of George Ford whom we are not considering since first base is not his regular berth. The nagain, we realize Ford, if considered could be selected as best in at least three of the nine positions on a baseball file. Hence it would be unfair to definitely place him as a first packer. The Oriental catchers and pitchers also rank with the best. The Myrtles are now under new management and it will be a question of time before a correct line can be gotten on them. They do, however, have splendid material. Having shot their bolt the Le-Droit Tigers, once the District's favorites, are on a swift decline, "Doc" Wests' jungle cats appear to have lost all of their vim, vigor and vitality. The hull of the one-time Man-o'-war is now, no more than a creaky derelict. Hayes Jones, like Connie Mack, ems to have lost his chance. The anager of the once famous Washington Giants has so far been unlite to build up a combination, pable of holding their own with e rest of the Union League pack. Freddy Woods' Piedmonts have en a dismal failure. Inconsistent pitching and weak batting ve been this new team's short-nings. The Elite Panthers with good ching better, with the acquisition of Harrison Parker, and good ting appear to be on a rampage Class A of the Tribune League. The Potomac Giants are a good of ball players. Their line-up, aisting of some of the northst section's leading ball tossers ud prove a thorn in the side he league leading Panthers. such good baseball is present he roster of the Arlington Aths. Through them the Potomac its, once on top, were pushed second place. ore next week. IS SHAKE HOODOO GIVE TOGANS LACING Y CITY—So lightly have the teams of the Tribune League been holding the Columbia Cubs, that in last Sunday when the cellar combination journeyed out here, they caught the Togans entirely by surprise and handed them a neat 2 lacing. John Levi, Armstrong product, mered Webb Lee's stickmen a vai- y of shoots before which they were practically helpless. Fox, ogan ace, and Green were mothered under a barrage of Cub angles. INTER-PLAYGROUND MEET The annual Interplayground track and Field championships old under the auspices of the District Playgrounds Department will staged next Friday on the track the Cardoza Vocational Playground. The meet has shown a constant crease in popularity since its inauguration. With 480 participants st year, Mr. A. W. Tennyson, Doctor of Playground Athletic Activities believed the affair had reached the peak of its endeavor, it indications to date are to the fact that even the huge entry 14 of last year will be surnassed. The Logan Playground having in the meet each of the past two excessive years is anticipating faculty in clinging to its laurels. --- THE SPORT REVIEW A'S TAKE BOTH GAMES FROM DULIN AND MARTIN BRIGHTWOOD, D.C.—Dulin and Martin went down to a double defeat at the hands of the fast traveling Arlington Athletics out here last Sunday by margins of 8-5 and 13-2. Errorless ball was displayed by both teams in the opener, when each team garnered 9 safeties. The 20 hits, Arlington combed off the D and M hurler in the finale completely removed the losers from the picture. Walker, who started the opener but was forced to quit under fire, redeemed himself by going the route in the second game. **Halletics** ab h r D. & M. ah h r Holmes,2b 4 2 1 Hamilt's,ss 3 2 1 R.Scott,ss 4 1 1 R.Hark's,3b 3 1 1 F.Brks,1b 4 1 1 JnRyr,'bj 4 1 0 F.Apollard,c 2 1 Jas.Roy,'f 1 0 Peyton,rf,lf 3 1 Morgan,cf 3 1 0 Minor,3b 1 1 Ste's,n2b 2 0 0 Brown,cf 3 1 Carter,rf 2 0 0 Wingf'd,lf 3 1 Bell,c 1 0 0 Walker,p 2 0 Frazier,m 2 0 0 Madison,p 2 0 Brooks,c 3 1 0 H.Scott,lf 2 0 S.Hark's,rf 2 0 0 Crawfrd,f 1 0 0 LOWLY MONARCHS SUR- PRISE WAR COLLEGE WASHINGTON BARRACKS—The lowly Monarchs, showing a decided spurt under their new manager, took the Army War College into camp twice on their own home grounds last Sunday by scores of 9-8 and 13-5.

BLACK BARONS TWICE DOWNED BY SOUTHERN SIXTH & K STREETS, S.E.—Fells and Smith, Southern Star pitchers, collaborated to win a double header from the black Baron nine last Sunday. The scores were 13-9 and 10-5. While the former was hit freely the Barons' bingles were scattered sufficiently enough to hinder damage. Young started the nightcap, but was unable to last, giving way to Smith in the second. Smith fanned 14, allowed 4 hits and got 3 in 5 times at bat himself. He was easily the star of the fray.

The locals went down before the overwhelming scores of 22-2 and 12-1. The Anacostia hurlers, Clayborne and Reed were unusually effective. The former allowed 4 hits, while the latter held the Virginians hitless until the final frame when a pinch hitter, H. Porter, tripled to spoil his chance to enter the Hall of Fame.

The consistent batting of the Tigers accounted for their victory over the alien combination. Fourteen tingles were shared by every member of the team with the exception of Braxton and Lancaster.

PLEASANTS HAS BEST CARD IN C.G.C. TOURNEY The first round of the Citizens' Golf Club Spring Invitational Tournament was held over the Lincoln Memorial course last Sunday. Though threatening weather conditions prevailed throughout most of the forenoon , the opening matches were in most cases interesting and close. The outstanding feature of the day's play was the winner of 65 of Charles Pleasant, winner of the Medal Play. Pleasant's score though showing but 1 birdie, evidences consistency in his great shooting.

August 1—The American Tennis Association has announced through its official bulletin that the national championships in tennis will be played on Hampton Institute courts beginning Monday, August 15, and ending Saturday, August 29. As this is the first time that the national championships have been time at an educational institution, played in the South, and the second the public is eager to see what degree of success the Association will meet. The place selected is ideal, as the school will band every effort to make the championships a success. The use of the buildings will be thrown open to visitors and participants. There are eight clay courts which have been put in excellent condition for the tournament. From the present outlook, the entry list will far surpass that of previous years. More people are becoming interested in the game as the Association moves its activity to the new territory. For example, Tidewater, Virginia has been seething with tennis this season, as five tournaments will have been held before the cold wind starts its annual tune... The first held was the C.I.A.A. Tennis Championship; second, the Tidewater Tennis Tournament of Norfolk; third, the Hampton Institute Summer School Tournament; fourth, the Southeastern Tournament in Norfolk; and fifth, the A.A.T.A. Championships. Some Facts The 1926 champions holding crowns who will be under fire during the week of the championships are Exe Sailh, of New York City, MONUMENTAL TENNIS CLUB TOURNAMENT MONUMENTAL TENNIS CLUB TOURNAMENT A new tennis club has been organized by the young men and women who spend their evenings chasing the white sphere on the courts at the foot of the Monument. The club under the name of the Monumental Tennis Club is now staging a tournament which despite the rain is going on splendidly with keen interest and rivalry. Mr. Harris, the president of the club, was instrumental in its organization and through his efforts colored players now have three courts instead of two. If the colored citizens continue to come out in large numbers, five courts will be given. The finals of the tournament will be played Sunday, August 7, at three o'clock. The trophies will be presented winners and runners-up. The results of the tournament thus far are: **Men's Singles** J. Williams defeated McCorkle 6-1, 6-1. C. Turner defeated E. Jones 2-6, 6-2. E. Green defeated Holder 6-1, 6-3. Flipping defeated Harris 6-1, 6-2. **Men's Doubles** The Turner Brothers defeated McCorkle and Williams. Brown and Byrd defeated Brickhouse and Madison 6-1, 6-4. **Ladies' Singles** Virginia Downing defeated M. Gandy 6-0, 6-2. **Mixed Doubles** Virginia Downing and J. Williams defeated C. Waugh and C.

Of course there are the old masters of the game who fell by the wayside to be contended with, and then there are the runner-ups who failed through some turn of luck. It will be interesting to see what crowns remain and what crowns shift to other heads. Club Entries Entries for the tournament can be made only through a club or local association. Many players think that any person can pay the entrance fee and play, but not so. The entry must positively be made through local clubs. Contestants may make entries through the offices of Gerald F. Norman, executive secretary of the American Tennis Association, 53 Juniper street, Flushing, N.Y.; or to J. Mercer Burrell, secretary of the A. T.A. 164 Market street, Newark. After that date, send all entries to Charles H. Williams, official headquarters, Hampton Institute, Virginia. All entries must be received at least 48 hours before play commences and must be accompanied by full entry fees. For accommodations, communication should be made to captain W. R. Brown, Hampton Institute, Virginia. THE MANASSAS HORSE SHOW The management of the Manasas Horse Show Association for colored people is making elaborate plans for its 23rd annual meet, which will begin on Labor Day, September 5, and close on the 6. It will have a program of twenty-one ring exhibits and six races, for which prizes amounting to one thousand dollars will be awarded the winners. This association is chartered under the laws of the State of Virginia and is the oldest organization of its kind in this section of the country, having enjoyed twenty-three years of continued existence. Its beautiful grounds comprising twenty acres of level land, abutted by shady groves, equipped with stables, commodious grand stand, dancing pavilion, refreshment booths, water plant, show ring, and a mile race track, all located adjacent to the field, afford every pleasure-giving facility for holiday outings. President John W. White says he is expecting an unusual attendance this year because of the improved condition of all roads leading to Manassas, and the fact that he has been able to secure excursion rates from all points between Washington and Manassas; Charlottesville and Manassas, and Harrisonburg and Manassas, for both days of the show, and will have all Harrisonburg trains stopped at the grounds, to let off or take on passengers to and from Washington and Harrisonburg points. The second day of the show will be featured as school day, and free admission tickets will be issued to the children of the public schools of the county through their teachers. The schools will take part in a competitive literary program for the flag of honor. Other features of this outing include music daily on the pavilion and a ball each night at the town hall.

This is a story of something that happens to all men at their turning point in life, this being, when they replace knee breeches with long pants. It is a time in life when every one laughs at us, and we do not know the reason. If you see Harry Langdon in "Long Pants" you will not only realize why folks laugh at you, but you will also laugh. Room" on the screen with all colored artists, featuring Charles S. Gilpin, late star of "Emperor Jones," Gilpin is also winner of the Spingarn Medal, and America's greatest dramatic artist of color. Mr. Gilpin will be supported by such brilliant stars as Lawrence Chenault, Arline Mickey, Harry Henderson, Ethel Smith, W. M. Clayton, Jr., and Myra Burwell. If you don't remember the old story you will find it one of the greatest heart-interest dramas the screen has ever known. We assure you that the elaborate settings, costumes, in and out of doors scenes, are the best ever put into a colored production. "MISS BANDANA" AT HOWARD For the week beginning Monday, August 8, the Howard Theatre is presenting an all new show which depicts a jazz story of Dixie, "Miss Bandana." This play was produced by the celebrated actor and musical comedy producer Clarence E. Muse. It presents a scintillating galaxy of musical comedy stars headed by Mabel C. Ridley, the Georgia song bird. Others in the cast are Alice Gorgas, Angeline Mitchell, Ollie Burgyone, who is a favorite of two continents. Geraldine Gooding and Beatrice Brown are the other feminine principals who combine ability with pulchritude and it. The male members of the company consist of S. T. Whitney, Walter Crumbley, Ike Paul, Onions Jefferise, George Booker, juvenile lead, L. J. Randall, J. W. Mobley, Gorgon Wilson, Cecil Graham, John Henderson, Sheldon Hoskins and R. M. Cooper. The chorus has been carefully selected for their grace, agility and beauty and constitute one of the outstanding features of this wonderful show. The musical numbers have been especially written for this production by Russell Smith. The most wonderful and remarkable scene in this production is the big Mississippi flood scene.

If you see Harry Langdon in "Long Pants" you will not only realize why folks laugh at you, but you will also laugh. On Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, will be seen "Wandering Girl" with Dorotay Revere. It is a story of restless, wreckless, carefree youth who lives in a small town and has big town ideas, and shows how an innocent girl can easily be accused of wrong doings in a big city, and how utterly impossible it is to prove that she is innocent. On Friday night the regular midnight ramble will be held, beginning at 12:15 sharp. Tickets for the midnight ramble go on sale at the box office on Saturday of the week before the show. CHARLES S.

This always affords the public an opportunity to see these big pictures again, or if they have missed them entirely to see ethem for the first time. In this list the management has tried to include all of the pictures that have been requested for by patrons. Sometimes a picture has been withdrawn entirely from exhibition, and at other times altho a picture may be secured for showing, the condition of the film does not warrant it to. However, the management of the Republic believes that this year's "Success Pictures" form the best array that has ever been shown in reviving this annual custom. Regular prices will prevail during the showing of all "Success Pictures,"—matinee, opening to 6:30, 10c; night, 6:30 to closing, 20c; Sunday, all day, 20c. The original music scores have been obtained on practically all of these pictures after much research and expense. Probably the most outstanding music on any picture during the past three years has been that of "The Volga Boatman" and the music score will be played intact in its original form. For the first week of "Success Pictures" the following will be shown: Sunday, August 7, "The Temptress" with Greta Garbo and Antonio Moreno; Monday, Tuesday, August 8, 9, DeMille's master Extending More Serve You Bet Extending More and More to Serve You Better and Better PROPER arrangement and installation of electrical apparatus to control generation and transmission is all important and requires the most specialized and expert attention.

LOIS MORAN IN THE "WHIRL WIND OF YOUTH" AT THE LINCOLN NEXT WEEK On Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, August 7, 8 and 9, the feature production at the Lincoln will be "Whirlwind of Youth" featuring Lois Moran and Donald Keith. You will remember that Lois Moran was the young lady who made such a hit in "God Gave Me Twenty Cents." This story opens in a little English settlement in Paris, where Miss Moran goes to pursue her studies in art, and while there experiences the effects of a great love. Th final scene is laid on a French battle field, but unlike many of the other war stories, no fighting is seen and thereby releaves the production of the gruesomeness of the late war. Ir. this very pleasing production are and More to better and Better In a little more than a generation electricity has become the most-used and useful of Washington's public utility services.

On Wednesday and Thursday, August 10 and 11, in accordance with the new policy of the Lincoln Theatre for the month of August, two feature productions will be shown. The first of these will be "Ritzy," in which Betty Bronson has the leading role. This is one of Elinor Glyn's productions. Like all other of Elinor Glyn's works, Madam Glyn is well known for her keen understanding of sex psychology. This is a story of a modern sophisticated girl and despite its humor and whirlwind of laughter it is an interesting arrangement of parental indulgence and the indifference of the twentieth century parents to the rearing of their children. The second of the double feature is "The Blonde Saint" with Lewis Stone and Doris Kenyon. "The Blonde Saint" is distinctly different from the usual motion picture, in that there is none of the flapper and cabaret element, but is a love affair on a Sicilian island. It all lppens while en route to England. When the Saint refuses to marry her suitor he takes her in his arms and jumps overboard and they are later picked up by a Sicilian fishing boat and taken to a small island, where after many thrilling and exciting experiences she finally realizes her great love for him.

Williams, colored Beaux Art medalist in 1912, is conceded as a possible winner from the fact that his design of the Los Angeles colored "Y" building erected last year is considered as one of the most beautifully designed and economically constructed "Y" buildings on the Pacific coast.

T. Medford) Dr. J. E. Aggery, age 45, of Salisbury, N.C., used in the Harlem Hospital, New York City last Sunday night, at which place he had gone few days previous for treatment for what was considered a minor ailment. His death comes as a distinct shock to the race, and especially the A.M.E. Zion denomination of which he was considered the most outstanding educational exponent. Dr. Aggery was a native of West Golq Coast, Africa. He came to this country a youth, matriculated at Livingstone College, Salisbury, N.C., from which he graduated with honors.

This school work had the backing of the Phelps-Stokes Foundation, under which Dr. Aggery was employed. He was on a visit to his family in this country at the time of his death. Dr. Aggery is survived by a wife Mrs. Rose D. Aggery teacher in Livingstone College, two sons and two daughters. The eulogistic services were held at Livingstone College, Wednesday at which place the remains were buried. A message of sympathy was wired to Mrs. Aggery by the African Methodist Episcopal Zion ministers of this city and Bishop E. D. W. Jones was delegated to represented the ministers at the funeral.

What tragedies, what hopes blasted, are suggested by the very term. Jimmy Murphy, who lived in a crowded tenant house in New York, was a victim of this living death. He was sent to a hospital for an operation in the hope that he might again walk like other boys, but his people despaired. They had known of too many afflicted boys and girls who returned from hospitals no better than when they went. In the hospital Jimmy Murphy, the Irish lad lay near the cot of a black boy, Jim Blunt, who encouraged his fellow sufferer and befriended him in his loneliness and Jim Blunt must undergo an operation was a success and gradually his strength came back and he walked about the hospital on crutches. The doctors decided that Jim Blunt must undergo an oitation. A blood transfusion was necessary to save his life. But who would offer blood from his body to save the life of a friendless black boy? "I will," quickly volunteered Jimmy Murphy, whose body was still weak and emaciated from his long suffering. A few weeks later the two lads left the hospital, restored to life, to play to work and to live like other boys. God bless you both, Jimmy Murphy and Jim Blunt, you have done more by your kindness to solve the age-old race problem than all the editors and professors in the world could do in a thousand years by writing editorials and books. --The Pathfinder. COLLECTION OF MISSIONARY FUND FOR AFRICANS CAUSES BREAK BE TWEEN AIMEE AND MOTHER LOS ANGELES, Calif. Aug 4 (PCNB)—Bitter strife and factional differences between mother and daughter over the handling of thousands of dollars contributed to collections, contributions and free-will offerings at the Angelus Temple reached a climax last week following the collection of approximately $1200 by Mgr. Mimie Kennedy, mother of Aimee Semple McPherson, for missionary work on the Congo River in Central Africa. This free-will offering, Mrs Kennedy said, was for the establishment of six Angelus Temple missions among the African 1 POOR GIORIA! She's so clever about making pretty frocks that she has a perfectly dreadful time every morning deciding which one to wear. It's particularly hard today, because her new printed skirt crepe bououri coat is so lovely that she really can't make up her mind to get dressed at all. Perhaps she will just wait until it's time to go swimming and then slip on her printed linen beach robe, which is made on the same smart lines as the negligee. The bands making the long collar and the finish of the wide kimono sleeves are of a shade to harmonize with the colors of the print. (Ce'right, 1927, by Butterich) A Series of Sermons by Rev. J.

LINCOLN MEMORIAL ON MOUNTAIN FACE CUMBERLAND GAP, July 29 (Preston News Service)—Atlanta's Stone Mountain will hear the carved features of Robert E. Lee and other famous Confederate leaders. A great precipice near this town, 300 miles from Atlanta, is to have lined thereupon by the sculptor's chisel the likeness of Abraham Lincoln, Kentuckian, whose armed men overthrew the cause for which Lee fought. There will be no other Lincoln memorial like this in the world. A noted sculptor from the east came NINE ray Korman here, looked at the towering rock and decided that the carving could be done, and it is likely the plan will be made feasible within a few months. Two years would likely be required to cut Lincoln's figure into the heights of limestone. The peak lifts its mighty head above Cumberland Gap, and its shadow reaches almost to Lincoln Memorial University. The rock mountain is located on the grounds of the university, which, however, is in Tennessee. Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee state lines join here. The figure of Lincoln would be more than 100 feet in height, and according to the plants as advanced, it would be alone. When the figure has been chiselled out of the living stone, the masses of timber will be slashed from the lower slopes and blue grass will be cown there. Steps are then to be built up the hill to as near the foot of the monolithic figures as is possible. Fourteen hundred allot plants were recently brought from Africa to New York for experimentation in research work in the Department of Agriculture. e, and y We Believe It
