FIRST in Advertising and Circulation ALL IS READY FOR SCHOOL OPENING ON SEPTEMBER19 Everything is in readiness for the opening of the District public schools on September 19, First Assistant Superintendent Garnet C. Wilkinson said Wednesday afternoon following a meeting of the Board of Education. The board recommended that the lowest bid of $530,000 for the construction of the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School be accepted by the District Commissicers. It also recommended that Congress be asked for an additional appropriation of $80,000 for the completion of the building. The sum of $475,000 has been appropriated for the building. Superintendent Frank W. Ballou reported that the District auditor has disallowed the claims of Mrs. E. A. Browne and Mrs. M. J. Matthews for pay from the time they were entitled to appointment to the date of their actual appointment. They were given appointments following the decision of the court in the case of Miss Mabel M. Jackson, who sued out a writ of mandamus requiring the board to appoint her to a position filled by a teacher who lacked the necessary requirements. Mrs. Browne and Mrs. Matthews will have to bring suit against the District of Columbia. The District auditor advised the board that additional land had been purchased for the Dunbar High School stadium at a cost of $11,235. He also reported the purchase of land for playgrounds at the Wormley School at a cost of $9,250 and at the Montgomery School at a cost of $14,937. Superintendent Balloon informed the board that Henry E. Gilligan as acting president had informed Assistant Corporation Counsel Robert L. Williams that the board does not desire to take an appeal in the case of Mrs. Edith B. Howard, who was awarded a judgment of $1,516 in the District Supreme Court against the District commissioners for salary from the time of her eligibility to the date of her appointment. The District Civic Association asked that a school for feeble-minded pupils be established in divisions 10 to 13. Miss C. M. Williams, teacher class 1A, Division 10, was retired at her request on account of ill health. Miss Genevieve B. Dalton was appointed probationary teacher, class 2A, Francis Junior High School. The appointment of new teachers from the last graduating class of the Miner Normal School will be made at the board meeting Wednesday afternoon. PROF.

TIB to Ann Appoin WIFE EARNS MORE THAN HE; DENIES DESERTION His wife, Mrs. Louise K. Harrison, who operates the lunch room, the Miner Normal School, was not deserted by him, Eugene W. Harrison says in his answer to her petition for a limited divorce. On the contrary, he alleges, she ordered him from their home at No. 113 R street, northwest, July 16, although the furniture in the home was purchased by him. The home is the property of his wife, he admits. He also denies that she is without support and maintenance. Her earnings are greatly in excess of his, he claims. They own jointly No. 1713 Ninth street, northwest, he states. He is paying off a first trust of $3,500 on this property at the rate of $35 a month, but she collects the monthly rental of $60, he asserts. From the lunch room in the Miner Normal School she realizes approximately $2,000 a year, he says. She rents out rooms in their home and a garage, for which she receives about $48 a month, he states. His salary as a poor clerk in the city_post office is only $2,100 a year, he declares. DUNBAR HI GRAD FINISHES G. P. O. APPRENTICESHIP Among the first to complete the 1923-27 course for the training of apprentices in the Government Printing Office, is John G. Houser, 34, who finished the Printers' course, Monday, September 5. Houser is the first Negro to have completed the course. The school, as it may be termed, consists of apprenticeship preparation in the following trades as printer, pressman, bookbinder, electrotyper, stereotyper, photoengraver, and machinist. At least four years of study is required for the completion of each course. Time absent must be made up by the apprentice, and for that reason the students, who all begin at the same time do not, necessarily, finish together. The printing course includes ten periods, during which the student is made acquainted with every detail in the trade. Starting with the definition of the various "printers' terms," the routine of study carries the apprentice through every phase of the work up to proof-reading and revising. Houser has been an employee of the Government Printing Office since 1919. He is now a pressman, the only Negro in the department. Four other Negroes, William A. Jones, George P. Lane, Russell F. Drew and Ivanoe C. Garnett are members of a class for printers, course. Garnett is a graduate of the Dunbar High School business department and Russell Drew finished at Armstrong Technical High School in 1924. Hugh C. Russell and Phillip G. Barnes are registered in the course for bookbinders. HOWARD U. GIRL IS APPOINTED TEACHER Miss Pearle H. Johnson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry B. Johnson, 1428 T street, left Sunday for Indianapolis, Ind., where she has been appointed as French teacher in the senior high school. She is a graduate of the class of 1925, Howard University, and has been teaching in Wilson, N. C. Washington Tribune PUBLISHED WEEKLY BBS Tnouncements LOUIS R. LAUTIER PAYS A VISIT TO HIGHLAND BEACH HIGHLAND BEACH, Va., Labor nay.—Well, here we are—three of the U street proletariat—a young physician, an electrician and a reporter, Dr. John Q. Nicholas, Fred Pelham and I. The day was delightfully spent. Perry W. Howard, Republican national committeeman for Mississippi, was our host. We were given a hearty welcome. We had been told that a warm reception awaited us. We were first given a sightseeing trip over the town. The show places were pointed out to us, the palatial cottages of Thomas Williams of Philadelphia and Dr. T. J. Wharton of Altoona, Pa., and the cottage built by Frederick Douglass forty years ago, in which his grandson, Joseph Douglass, the violinist, now lives. The remainder of the day was spent on Chesapeake Bay in the Howard launch. In the distance from Highland Beach were two battleships, the Nevada and the Oklahoma, lying at anchor. We took a ride out of them and went aboard the Oklahoma. In the party were Mortimer M. Harris, Joseph T. Settle, Charles H. Flagg, the three of us, and Mr. Howard, our host. Dinner was served at the Howards' cottage, which faces the Chesapeake. Before dinner Dr. John Washington came over and chatted. After dinner we were joined by Mrs. Estelle Coffey Carr and Charles E. Hall. In the morning Mrs. Carr had driven Robert S. Abbott, editor of the Chicago Defender, to the resort and back to Washington in time to catch a 3 o'clock train for Chicago. Other visitors seen at the beach included Mrs. Mortimer M. Harris, Miss Caroline Harris, Mrs. Joseph T. Settle, Arthur G. Froe, Charles E. Mitchell of Institute, W. Va., Dr. and Mrs. Charles I. Wilder, Dr. Hugh Simmons, Miss Ethel Alexander, Miss Hallie E. Queen, Mrs. Joseph Murray and Mr. and Mrs. John R. Wright. HOWARD UNIVERSITY GRADUATES WEDDED Miss Carrie H. Washington, daughter of Mrs. H. P. Washington, of Straight College, New Orleans, La., and sister of Professor Leo Hansberry, of Howard University, and E. Horace Fitchett, son of Mrs. A. P. Fitchett, of Baltimore, were married Thursday evening, September 8, at 8 o'clock. The ceremony was performed at the home of Professor and Mrs. W. H. Jones, of Washington, Rev. Thomas, pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, officiating. The marriage was a very quiet affair, only a few of the relatives of the bride and groom being present. The bride who was graduated, Magna Cum Laude, from Howard University, June last, was one of the ranking students of her class, she having been elected to membership in the Kappa Mu honorary society and the Mu Delta Phi, the two leading scholarship fraternities of the institution. She also served as assistant in the department o. botany during her senior year. The groom, an honor graduate of the class of 1926, was last year a graduate-fellow in sociology and received his M.A. degree, June last. He is a member of the Kappa Mu honorary society and the Omega Psi Phi fraternity. The young couple will be engaged in educational work during By Louis R. Lautier PRUDENTIAL BANK IN $1,000,000 CAMPAIGN A campaign to increase its deposits to $1,000,000 is being carried on by the Prudential Bank. Since its opening July 23, 1923, its deposits have increased from $47,000 to $388,000 belonging to over 5,000 depositors, according to the report of its officers. Its resources are over $460,000. The bank is under the supervision of the United States Government. The bank is rendering a community service. It has aided in the development of business in the northwest section. It has made loans to individuals and business establishments, helping them to buy homes or expand their businesses. An increase in the amount on deposit will make it possible for the bank to enlarge its services. The campaign will be for a period of ninety days. New depositors will be sought and old depositors will be asked to increase the amount of their deposits. The officers of the bank are John R. Hawkins, president; Dr. A. M. Curtis, vice-president; Thomas Walker, vice-president; Dr. P. W. Price, vice-president; C. W. Banton, executive vice-president; Edward A. Baker, cashier, and Joseph H. Greene, assistant cashier. COMMITS SUICIDE AFTER SHOOTING TWO WOMEN Joseph Smith, age 33, brother of George P. (Lefty) Smith, well known local baseball player, was found dead on the terrace of Fifth and Reservoir streets, last Wednesday night. Smith took his own life after having shot and wounded two other persons, one seriously. His wife Edith Smith, 22, and Bernice Johnson, -11, were shot following a quarrel at 778 Fairmont street. The former was wounded in the right breast and lies in a serious condition at Freedmen's Hospital, while the second bullet entered the right shoulder of the other. A lady in the vicinity of the Reservoir hearing a pistol shot reported it to the Tenth Precinct. Officer W. L. Hunt found Smith lying on the grass just behind the Howard University Stadium with a bullet through his right temple. Smith was a familiar figure at Union League Park, where his brother, George, performs as pitcher and outfielder for the Washington Black Sox. DR. W. B. MASON GETS DIVORCE A final decree for an absolute divorce was granted last Friday in the District Supreme Court to Dr. William B. Mason, a dentist, of Baltimore, Md. The decree gives him an absolute divorce from Mrs. Alice I. Mason. It was signed by Justice Wendell P. Stafford. The couple were married while Dr. Mason was a student in Howard University. The interlocutory decree was ninety days ago. Another Case A final decree for an absolute divorce was also signed last Thursday by Justice Stafford in favor of Mrs. Zenobia P. Parker. The decree gives her an absolute divorce from John H. Parker, a clerk NEGROES PREFER CHICAGO AS REP. CONVENTION CITY While colored Republicans favor Chicago as the place for holding the next Republican national convention, those on the inner circles of Republican politics feel certain that San Francisco will be chosen. Chicago is easily accessible to the colored delegates, who come largely from the southern states. Railroad fare from their homes to the Illinois metropolis is within the means of most of those who are elected to represent their congressional district or state. In these days when the trend is away from candidates bearing the express of delegates, this is an important consideration. Three months ago San Francisco was practically agreed upon by the party bosses. Since that time the President has declared that "I do not choose to run for President in 1928." This declaration, it is believed, will not change the convention situation. It is also believed that the fact that Herbert Hoover is mentioned as California's candidate will have no bearing on the question of holding the convention in San Francisco. It is pointed out that the convention was held in Chicago in 1920, Governor Lowden being Illinois' candidate. Chicago, Cleveland and Detroit are also contenders for the 1928 Republican convention. The selection will not be made formally until the Republican National Committee meets here in December. MURRAY PALACE CASINO OPENS FOR SEASON MURRAY PALACE CASINO OPENS FOR SEASON The fall season at the Murray Palace Casino was opened amid beauty and frivolity Labor Day, when the newly organized 50-50 Club, headed by Frank Jones, gave its opening dance. The Murray Casino, with its new coat of paint in the lobby, and its always beautiful interior, just as beautiful as ever, was swung open at 5 o'clock Monday afternoon and the 50-50 Club dance lasted until three the next morning. Charm was added to the dance by the jolly and gaily bedecked hostesses, who were sporting their identification badges about the hall and seeing that everyone had an enjoyable time. The 50-50 Club will be at the Casino each Monday night. The second opening dance was that of the Smarter Set, Wednesday night. The attendance then, as it was on Monday, was large and gay, in spite of the very warm weather. The Smarter Set will sponsor a dance at the Casino each Wednesday night. On Thursday, the Black and White Circle Club, which has been operating all summer will give their regular dance, featured by projection slides, good music, and the singing of Charles Lee. The fall opening of this club will be held September 22. Now that the Murray Casino has been officially opened for the fall, it will no doubt be the mecca for good dances throughout the season.

He graduated from Howard with the Bachelor of Arts degree in 1922; he returned the following year and received his masters' degree in history. Later he graduated from the law school of the University of Chicago, he successfully passed the bar examination and was admitted to practice before the courts of Illinois. Mr. Payne was married here in June, 1925, to Miss Evelyn B. Scott, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Emmett J. Scott. GETS $900 FROM W.R. & E.CO. FOR BREAKING ANKLE The Washington Railroad and Electric Co. has just settled a claim with W. E. Cheesboro, letter carrier of this city. On March 2, 1927, Cheesboro was injured while boarding a car at Ninth street and Pennsylvania avenue, northwest. He entered suit against the company. The case was compromised for $900. Mr. Cheesboro lives at 323 Third street, northwest. NAT'L IDEAL BENEFIT SOCIETY ENDS MEET The National Ideal Benefit Society, a fraternal insurance organization working to promote the spirit of unity among colored people and to teach them the importance of thrift and industry, held its 15th annual convention at John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church this week. The meeting opened at 10 a.m. Tuesday, September 6, with Supreme Master A. W. Holmes of Richmond, Va., presiding. More than 200 delegates were present from all parts of Virginia, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and the District of Columbia. Words of welcome were delivered by Rev. H. T. Medford, pastor of John Wesley, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Mrs. Olivia Neal. Responses were made by L. C. White of Richmond, Mrs. Maude A. Morrisett of Philadelphia, and Mrs. Olivia Smith of Richmond.

P. will speak. LAD, ON 90-DAY HIKE, STOPSOVER IN WASHINGTON A jovial lad of 20 years poked his head into the door of the office of the Washington Tribune last Saturday afternoon, displayed a sun bronzed face, a bushy head, and two sets of pearly white teeth. "This is Nebraska Williams, the boy who is hiking from Shreveport, La., to Boston, Mass, and back for a prize of $1,000 and a four-year scholarship to Michigan University," he said. After having told the Tribune reporter of the conditions of his heel-and-toe exhibition, Williams revealed an attempt on the part of white discriminators to hinder him in his undertaking. Upon entering Monroe, La., Williams was told to "get off the highway" with those signs on him. (The signs were those describing his trip and the purpose of it). The lad paid no heed and he was threatened. When he continued with no signs of fear, one of the whites drew out a revolver and shot him in the leg. He was taken to a hospital, and for nine days according to Williams' story, he suffered with the wound, no effort being made on the part of the hospital officials to give him relief. Put in Camp. Following the two weeks he spent in the hospital, Williams says he was taken to Lake Providence, La., and put to work at a levee camp. He stole off one night and with "Bullie," his bulldog, resumed his foot journey north. The youth left Shreveport on June 14 and on his trip to Boston he passed through the following large cities: Memphis, St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany, New York and Providence. Williams carries a compass and walking clock. He reports to the police station at every 5-mile town and every 100 miles he covers, the police wire to Shreveport his whereabouts and progress. The expenses of his trip are covered through small donations he receive as he hands out photos of himself. Williams told the Tribune reporter he was then standing in the seventeenth pair of shoes he has had since his departure from his home town. The boy said he thought Washington a "great city." He left Monday night after having spent Labor Day here. He is due in Shreveport on September 15. Williams' hike is sponsored and financed by the Shreveport Times (gaily). The Times gave him $1000 and the Michigan University students added $190. Lee—I think it's going to rain. Joe—I hope not. I want to wa ter my garden today.

IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE TEMPORARILY JUDGE UNTIL SETTLED Roy Wilfred Tibbs, professor of piano and organ at Howard Uni versity, has joined the alimony club. His attorneys, Hayes and Davis Wednesday consented to an order for temporary alimony for his wife, Mrs. Lillian Evans Tibbs coloratura soprano, who is suing him for maintenance. The order requires Professor Tibbs to pay his wife $50 on September 25 and $100 a month thereafter while the case is pending. It was signed by Justice Wendell P. Stafford. Mrs. Tibbs charges her husband with desertion. She says that he has sought to make it appear that her ambitions for a career was the cause of their separation. She alleges that she was locked out of his home at 401 T street, northwest, when she sought to take up her abode there in August. Mr. Tibbs has not yet filed an answer to her charges. The Tibbs were married in Gary, Ind, September 20, 1918. They have one son, Thurlow Evans Tibbs, 6 years old, Mrs. Tibbs went abroad in 1924 to study music. She has returned home each summer and returned home in concert in a number of the larger cities. She has also appeared in grand opera in Nice and Monte Carlo. She is known in musical circles as Madam Evanti. The suit will probably be settled out of court by an agreement of counsel. Henry F. Woodard, white, is representing Mrs. Tibbs. JAMES B. LOWE RISES TO FAME IN MOVIE ROLE James B. Lowe, selected by Universal Pictures Corporation to play the leading role in the screen version of Harriet Beecher Stowell "Uncle Tom's Cabin," has at last been given recognition for his excellent dramatic ability. The picture will have its premiere in New York probably some time this month. The Los Angeles Times, one of the city's largest dailles, writes of Mr. Lowe's rise to fame in these terms: "Art ignores race, color and creed. Perhaps she enjoyed the cruel caprice of kindling the divine fire of eloquence in the bosom of an humble Negro. "He started thirty-five years ago by speaking pieces in a backwoods school. "Boy, some day you may be a preacher," said the school master. "I don't want to be a preacher," the boy replied. "I want to be an actor." "Had he been white, a world full of opportunity would have been his. But it was a black man on whom art had bestowed this gift. Entertains Hobos "So there came years wherein audiences of fellow hobos in box cars heard him recite, impressive passages from 'Othello.' And laborers in work camps blinked stupidly when he hurled 'Julius Caesar' at them. "As this went on, this Negro acquired a rather amazing repertoire from stage classics. His schoolroom was theatre galleries of many cities. He heard great actors in great plays. Wherever he roamed, his pockets were filled with clippings about stage people. He lived in a world apart from his environment—from the environment his color had thrust upon him. "Then there came a time when he joined a Hollywood movie (Continued on page 7) Nurse (to eight-year-old Bobby) —Would you like me to show you the nice, cute, little baby the stork brought your mother?

Wheeler general ‘attorney and superinten dent of the Anti-saloon League ‘Serves to call attention to certain fundamental facts which canno! fail to interest the serious and in- dustrious student of human de- velopment, and relationship, es- pecially as they are manifest in so- ‘tial order and civil government. The term “Anti-saloon” is mis- Yeading as describing Mr. Wheel- er's activities, These activities were directed not solely to the de- struction and abolition of the sa- Joon as the instrument of the trade in. alcoholic beverages, but also to the ‘abolition and prohibition of the tse of aleoholic liquors as bever- ages. His success in this endeavor is evidenced by the Eighteenth Amendment to the constitution and the so-called Volstead act, which by ‘fight should be called . the Wheeler act, as its principal provi- sions and all amendments thereto were either written by him or had his assent and approval, The feature of Mr. Wheeler's activities’ snd influence which should appeal especially to colored People. is, that, without “holding Public office, he reached a position of leadership and power which made presidents, cabinet officers, senators and representatives bend to’ his will and execute his wishes. Of course he had a great organi- zation behind him which he shaped and developed and directed with = ‘ability and skill seldom possessed by any man. The controlling and| all important fact is that he did this without ever holding public ee, This single fact in his life is de- Serving of the most careful consid- eration by the understanding ele- ment of our own group.

Of late years, with the coming of a new generation and the development of business, the race has been growing slowly away from this false conception. One thing that has aided. this growth is the relatively few ap- pointments to administrative of- fices that colored men have re- eeived during the past cighteen| years. | It used to be a favorite analogy, of the temperance people to com- Pare the fight against the liquor’ ‘traffic with the agitation against] the institution of chattel slavery. Tt is interesting to observe that ‘the method of destruction in each was the same—non-partisan activ- ity, appeal to the conscience and understanding of men. These are the reasons which in-| ‘duce us to comment on the death of Wayne B, Wheeler: the power of leadership emancipated from Poblic offce, and the influence of organization, independent of po- litical parties, | POLITICAL ISSUES "In one of the daily reports com- ing from the summer White House in South Dakota, it is stated that the President in his annual mes- sage to Congress will deal with the questions of tax reduction Mississippi River flood control anc the relief of flood sufferers, ade- quate relief to farmers, and for eign relations. One or two other topics were mentioned, but all ot them can be classed under the head of economics.

This has constituted a distinct misfortune to the colored electorate, in that it has kept it from any real and genuine understanding of the fun- damentals of politics in the legiti mate sense. An understanding of the first principles which underlie taxation, expenditure, transportation, pro- duction, wages and interest is ab- solutely Inllepensable to any pat- ticipation in polities. The man who has no understanding of these matters can not be said to be in Politics in any real sense. Let the so-called political leaders study up, and be prepared to discuss’ the real questions of political divisions und controversies. This advice is all the more in point,. because tynching, segregation and disfran- chisement are not questions which now divide political parties, and as vital as they are to us, we have not educated the public mind to the point were any political party is prepared in good faith to cham: pion them. The duty is on us to educate the public mind’to an un- derstanding of these matters, and the public conscience to a sense of duty concerning them. BRUCE AND THE HOUSING PROBLEM ‘4he appointment of Koscoe C, Bruce, as the result of competitive test, to admiriister an experiment in apartment building for the “better class of colored people,” undertaken’ by the Rockefeller Foundation, is receiving wide pub- licity. The apartment houses are now in. process -of construction in West 153rd Street in the Harlem ‘section of New York City. The ‘apartments are to be sold to se- lected buyers on the instalment plan, with a low rate. of interest on deferred payménts. The pay- ‘ments are to be made monthly, and will cover principal! and in- ‘terest. ‘ |The Rousing: sohditson of tolored ‘people in cities is a matter.of vital importance. The word “vital” in this connection is used in its literal sense, for the matter of housing is one of the factors affecting“ the death rate, and the death rate among colored people in cities has, for a number of years, been the subject of study and preachment in many circles. The whole thing can be traced back to the poor eco- nomic conditions under which col- ored people ate forced to live. During and since the World War those conditions have improved. New lines of employment in the industrial centers have been opened to\'them, at wages which enable them to live in better houses, and to obtain better focd and cloth: ing, and to secure for themselves and dependents better education,— all of which are necessary. While the experiment with which Mr. Bruce has secured a connec- tion is of value, and is to be wel- comed, it is to be kept in miind, if ‘the announcements concerning it are to be accepted as correct, that it can affect only a relatively small group, a group already in the en- Joyment of wages, salary or in- come which, even under the un- favorable racial conditions now ex- isting, will make it possible for | them to escape many of the rigors | and hardships of poor housing ¢om- | ditions. ; | It is our opinion that the class \of people sought. to be provided [for in this experiment would serve j themselves and the colored people in general, in a much more effec. tive way, by organizing an enter- | prise of their own, financed wind | administered by themselves, with a view of housing their people and | themselves.

Carlton Dorsey, well known violinist, musician and a former teacher in one of our local music schools, has just returned from a trip to New York City where he was in conference with a music publishing house of standing, rela- tive to the publication of a new treatise on “The Physiological Laws of Bowing Through Anatomy for Violin.” It contains 300 pages and is profusely illustrated. For some time the author has been compiling data for this work and it promises to equal. any similar work in the nature of violinistic pedagodic treatment of compara- tive bow values. Congratulations are herewith extended to the bud- ding author-musictan and best wishes for sucess. A MUSICAL SOCIAL CLUB IN FORMATION Several ladies, local music stu- dents, are about to launch a new club to be known as the Mu-So Club, the name being derived from the first two letters in music-social Tt has for its object, the advance- ment of music among the student body, mutual co-operation and so- cial recreation. Music students of any teacher or local school are eli- gible and others may join under the associate membership plan. This club plans a monthly mu- sical and lecture program by prom- inent persons of both races since several white citizens have indi- cated a willingness to serve them. ‘They also are making elaborate plans for their monthly social fea- ture at a local hall where they may entertain their friends, el Reasonable Rates | Faulty Methods Corrected PHIFER L.

Mr. Vincents, Mr. Fair- fax, Checkers and his dad, reined their panting steeds. “Say, Mr. Jack,” Checkers called: out, “this beats. your. old Aeroplane riding!” ‘The, man addressed laughed, and Mr. Vincents. joined in, “Come on let's race. for the house!” Checkers cried out. The horses were urged and away they raced: through the forest to the bridle. path on the edge of the meen in.the meanwhile, the happy mother of our hero stood on the steps of the broad piazza of their home, smiling and looking toward the bridle path leading into the yard. Leading the party Checkers galloped in the pathway. Reining his horse he cried out to his dad, “Look over on the steps and look at.that bundle of love, will you?” His dad answered back, “Yes, but you ought to see the bundle cf ‘I don’t know what’ in the stables.” Mr. Vincents spoke up, “Come on let's get over there as quickly as possible so that we may get back—I am hungry and tired too.” ‘The stable door was thrown open as the four trotted in, Check- ers’ stopped suddenly and gaped, for there stood Satrap, Mr. Ken- wood and Paul, the boy who groomed the famous horse. Check- ers leaped off of his horse and with one bound was at Paul's side. Now if you've ever caught’ your mouth in a crook from grinning you'll: know what and how Paul felt and’ looked. “Well, I'll be a” sun-of-a-gun, Tock who's here!” Mr. Kenwood grasped our hero's hand warmly, “Well, well, the same old Checkers, with the ‘same old smile!” Checkers was by this time fon- dling, Satrap who, in return was neighing with delight... Checkers turned fo ‘Mr. Kenwood who was trying his level best to talk, laugh and shake hanks with Mr. Fairfax and. Mr.- Vincents at the same time. Checkers’ dad stepped over to his side and watched the confu- sion in high amusement. Satrap nosed our hero over and over. When the excitement died down, Checkers’ mother appeared in the doorway. Checkers brought her over to his side and speaking to Mr. Kenwood said, “This is the pot of gold I found at the end of my rainbow when I left Califor- nia. Meet my mother and father.” The scene that followed is not necessary to relate, so we will leave them. “Dinner is served in the gar- party of seven proceeded around den,” said Checkers’ mother.

There was a lot of bustle around “Para- dise Found.” s , At noon the party of seven en- tered the station through an en- trance that was being used only ‘by a few persons. Through the busy station the party went. To- wards the Sumyland Special the party wended its way.

By ‘this time the train was speeding on toward the terminal on the edge of the city. After lunch Checkers sat on the observation platform of the long train watch- ing the gloom being carried away and being pierced by a light now and then. Arm in arm, Checkers’ mother and father came out on the platform, Checkers rose and of- fered his seat to her. What a comfortable sight they made—a loving mother seated and her proud son. sitting on the arm of the chair while his dad stood by, his side, Checkers spoke up, “Isn't that _moon beautiful?” © A. star peek-a-booed. Checkers’ mother looked up. at him and replied, “Yes, and God was good to your father and_I, to-let you be with us to see this moon.” His dad smiled. Checkers ca- ressed his mother’s silvery hair, beautified still more by the moon. “Mother, dear, listen,” as’ he ‘turned toward his father, “The crops are all. in, we're about ‘through now, long nights will soon begin, we're just us. three now!” His mother kissed our hero's hand as his dad put his hand upon his shoulder and said, “My boy, al- though your skin is brown, your honest. life and. open-heartedness has opened the doors of the world to you. W2 find that whatever you attempted to do you did it thorougily, Be stront—keep the faith of uother and I, and ofa race that yet has far to climb.” “Tears of happiness were. in the eyes of these three, as Checkers said, “I love my. mother, my dad jand “my race. To them I will be true.” And bending over his moth- fer's shoulder his lips caressed her hair as’ he whispered, “Oh mother o’ mine, how I love you.” - (THE END) cs Boys will be boys. It is one of the endowments of childhood that never changes from sire to son. It makes of childhood and youth a stage of existence which is never lived over by the same person except in the transmission, and there is no other stage of his just like it, or which the youngster remembers so long and affectionately as he journeys on the serpentine way from the cradle to the grave.

He had, a natural liking for printing offices and never got over it. Indeed, much of such indifferent education as he was to receive was got in printing offices before he was of voting age. And the old printing offices were wonderful schools. In them Horace Greeley and Frederick Douglass learned more than in the public schools, which were few and poorly equipped in their day and were inaccessible, at least to Mr. Douglass, who simply picked up such education as he went along and as a matter of course. Mr. Lincoln was educated in much the same way. And what other Americans made more valuable contribution to the history of their times than Greeley, Douglass and Lincoln? Timothy absorbed education naturally as he mastered the principles of typography with the systematic reading and study which the WAS WKE WITH HIS NSWICK ALION ORDING MIESTRA THE GTONIANS' BING IN PERSON & TUES. 12 & 13 array tiful Salon MusicStore h St., N.W. & Fla.

Records For Everybody work of a printer made necessary. Nature has a way of providing the sort of education a person needs, and usually starts him off in the way he should go and holds him to it. Timothy had a weakness for marble playing. It was a craze with him. His parents could not trust him to go to town and return on time, especially on Saturdays, when the up-county boys came to town loaded with marbles which the town boys were anxious to win. In order to curb the weakness his parents took all the marbles from Timothy when he was to go to the village on an errand, but Timothy managed to overcome this handicap by planting a certain number of marbles at a convenient point. There was a bully in the village about eighteen who was as tough as steel. He did not look to be more than twelve, but he was built all in a heap and he was as strong as a young bull. He made it a business to cheat the youngsters at marbles, and to bluff himself out of the trouble, or trounce the boy who accused him of cheating. On one occasion when he was in a game and cheated, Timothy would not stand for it. He jumped on Timothy and the latter closed with him and grabbing him around his big neck dragged him to the ground and, while holding him, beat him up. One of the boys ran to Timothy's father's shop, nearby, and told him Joe Smith had Timothy down and was killing him. Emanued Fortune came on the run, with his shoe strap in his hand, and fell upon Joe and gave him a terrible drubbing, commanding him to let Timothy up, but Timothy had Joseph's legs and arms so tied up that he could not get up, and was getting a sound beating from above and below. Joe's big brother came along and interfered; others joined in the scrap, and soon a small riot was in progress, which it took some time and much trouble to quell. Timothy still remained down, however, holding fast to Joseph and beating him up, until the unfor- tunate bully and he were literally pried apart. Timothy had no more trouble with Joseph after that scrap. One Saturday morning Emanuel Fortune was sick and wanted some whiskey. He sent Timothy to the village after it, with instructions to make haste quickly. Timothy did, until he ran into a bunch of up-country youngsters, with plenty of marbles, and then he forgot al' about his errand. Late in the afternoon, when it began to get dark, he remembered and hastened to get the liquor. Striking a lively trot warranted to last until he reached home he started for home. When he came to the church yard, which the Yankee soldiers had laid waste, by burning the fine church, a big dog with a heavy chain about his neck, on the inside of the fence, began to chase Timothy. Timothy thought it was the devil broke loose and burned up the wind, and outdistanced the dog, chained about the neck as he was.

He did more; he sampled the liquor and found that it was very good. He drank it gleefully, all there was in the big neck and felt very good but dizzy. When he reached home supper was being served and he took his place and did unusual justice to the repast. No questions had been asked him, but when the meal was finished the head of the house said: "Now, Timothy, I will attend to you." He did. When Timothy's mother thought he had been punished enough (he was the favorite child—she said as much) and when her remonstrance went unheeded she grabbed a chair and went after the head of the house with blood in her eyes, insofar that he left off flogging Timothy and strove to defend himself by mollifying his irate wife.

THE BUREAU OF ENGRAVING AND PRINTING Within our mist there is a plant, The largest in the world; Overlooking the Potomac River, And easily reached by all. With coulons tall and stately, And flower beds so green, And ornamental walk ways, Tis a most spectacular scene. More than five thousand persons Are daily working there, In trades of every nature, Each one does his share. Transferers and bank note engravers, Plate printers skilled in art Are adjuncts to this output And play an important part. Currency for every city, Stamps and bank notes too, Revenue of all description Are numerous to view. The Bureau makes its light and hostile. heat, Makes ice and ink indeed, Fifty tons of ink a week, Keeps finance in the lead. It also has a laundry, To wash plate printers' clothes, And a plant to macerate money, To save this government loss. The director of this bureau Is a great and skillful man, For the finance of this govern- ment Is dependent on his plan STORIES TOLD BY ROCKS Before the advent of man upon the earth nature wrote down the simple records of life in sand and mud. Usually the first rain or gust of wind erased these records, but sometimes they remained and were preserved by the hardening of the mud and sand. Then more mud and sand were deposited on the records until a protective covering thousands of feet thick often hid the writings from the light of day. would then set to work to uncover the records once more. With the aid of a stream of water she slowly, through thousands of years, cut through the thick blanket of hardened silt and makes accessible the records of animals which roamed over the earth millions of years ago. Thirteenth hundred feet below the present top of the Grand Canyon such a piece of old stone parchment was found by Dr. Charles Gilmore of the Smithsonian Institution. This slab of old red mud hardened into sandstone is a particularly fine specimen. Running across it are the tracks of at least three distinct kinds of animals. One was a heavy-footed creature with pads like a bear; a second stepped lightly and left marks of a cat-like claw; while a third dragged a heavy tail which left a sharp groove in the mud between the tracks. It is the business of the scientist, with the aid of prehistoric fossil remains, to reconstruct these animals which lived so many thousand years ago —The Pathfinde LASTER COTTAGE The Laster Cottage is continuing the high-class service heretofor maintained.

NEW HOTEL TO OPEN HERE; TO HAVE 70 ROOMS The Nation's Capitol is to have a modern hotel, according to an announcement made Thursday by Mortimer M. Harris, a real estate operator. He stated that the purchase of the Nolando apartment house at 1413 T street, northwest, had been completed through his office and that the building would be remodeled and made into a first class hotel. The name of the purchaser was not disclosed. Mr. Harris said that in the purchase of the building he was acting for an out of town capitalist, who desired to make an investment in local property. The contract for the remodeling of the building will be let in about 30 days, Mr. Harris stated. The tenants must be cleared out first. According to the plans, the hotel will have 70 rooms. There will be a number with private baths and in suites. The first floor of the building will have a lobby, office and dining room. There will also be a ladies' parlor, a conference room and a laundry in the hotel. Negotiations are under way for the leasing of the dining room to an experienced waiter who is now at the United States Hotel, Saratoga, N. Y. The house service will probably be in charge of another experienced hotel man who has had service in Florida and in Saratoga. The executive management of the hotel will be retained by the office of Mr. Harris. A young woman accountant will be given a special course in hotel accountancy and she will be the auditor for the hotel. About $75,000 is involved in the transaction.

Many expectant mothers are constantly on pins fearing that something might happen to "mark" their little one. But according to Dr. R. S. Copeland "prenatal marking" is an utter impossibility. Birthmarks, he says, are due to explainable and reasonable causes, but it is not true that prenatal emotions have their effect in producing deformities of a baby. Maternal impressions may affect the nervous system, he explains, but certainly not the body of the unborn child. The expectant mother need not worry over the absurd idea that she may mark her baby. Such things never happen. Birthmarks come from other causes. Hobo—Lady I don't know where my next meal is coming from.

Brookland, with Five Wins in Three Days, Assumes Lead Huntsville in Two Hard Battles to Maintain Standing ```markdown ``` Sam's Scripts "Hail ye, hail ye, the advent of Feetball!" As the saying goes "twon't be leng now 'cause I'se almost here." The time for the bellow of signals, the stiff arm, the side step, the clip, the whistle, the off side, the penalty, the touchdown, the pass, the drop kick, the rah-rahs —oh, the everything is fast approach. Schedules and predictions are coming into this office daily. One coach anticipates a hard grind, but successful season, another mentor is optimistic and a third is careful and quiet. All in all it's time to get ready. Hunt out the old head-gear, shoulder pads and nose guard for th. period of bruises is coming. Lynwood Crump, star left-fielder of the Washington Black Sox, suffered a severe wrench of his left ankle in the first game of the Shamrock battles last Sunday. He may be lost for the remainder of the season. "Bill" Fauntroy, versatile Sox centerfielder, returned to the lineup Sunday. Though his playing revealed a physical weakness, Fauntroy's return was welcomed by all the Sox cohorts. Erma Euell and Willie Smith, new-comers to the Sox roster, proved last Sunday and Monday, that no mistake was made when owner Sheffield signed them to a contract. Smith is a gem of a first sacker, perhaps Washington's best, while Euell makes the biggest improvement at the hot corner since the departure of "Meije" Monroe. The boxing shows be staged at New Albert Auditorium in Baltimore prove to be quite attractive. Garland Mackey seems to have hit the "mail on the bean," so popular has his enterprise become in the Monumental City. The work of the Potomac Giants in winning 4 games in 2 days is quite a tribute to President William Carpenter's selection of Cliff Fairfax as the man to succeed Joe Harris as the team's manager. Fairfax is a likeable chap who is bound to succeed. A consistent player, with a most agreeable disposition the new G. P. helmsman cannot help but prove a capable guardian of his club's baseball destinies. And while throwing bouquets, I think it no more than fair to make Joe Harris one of my targets. The Potomac ex-chieftain is displaying an excellent quality of sportsmanship in his efforts to aid the team in their climb out of their rut. MONARCHS STOPPED BY ANACOSTIA ATHLETICS 4½ and Maine—The Monarchs, who have enjoyed quite a successful spurt since their change of management, were unable to stop the Anacostia Athletics in their steady march toward Huntsville and Coleville in Class B of the Tribune League, when "Pop" McKenzie's boys showed their heels in the forms of 5-2 and 11-9 victories down here last Sunday. Reed bested Kelly in the battle pitches in the first game, but will his team cracked in the 8th then the aliens scored thrice. Kelly was baffling the hard hitting anacostians.

THE SPORT REVIEW LEADERS MUST WIN FROM BOTH COLESVILLE AND ANACOSTIA NINES HUNTSVILLE - ANACOSTIA & HUNTSVILLE-COLESVILLE GAMES SHOULD BE NIP-AND-TUCK BATTLES Excitement is pitched "sky high" in anticipation of the two bang-up baseball battles that this week-end promises to bring forth. Saturday the Huntsville Giants, Tribune League Class B leaders, meet the third place Anacostia Athletics. A victory for "Pop" McKenzie's boys will push the Huntsvilleans into third place to await the outcome of their game Sunday, with the second place Colesville Tigers. The Giants must take both of these games, otherwise the league leadership will change hands. If the Jungle Cats are able to emerge from their battle victorious they will be in the van while the Anacostians win they, themselves, will be found on top. All three teams have creditable records and each is considering the other seriously. The Anacostia-Giant game Saturday begins at 4:30 p.m. at Monument Diamond 8, while the Sabbath day clash between the first and second place clubs will be staged at Huntsville Sunday.

The Elite Panthers, who until their meeting with the Brooklanders were ahead of the pack, were taken Saturday, 7-4. Arlington was defeated twice Sunday and the D. C.

CAPTURES WIN 4 STRAIGHT GAMES PAIR OF GAMES --- The Potomac Giants looked like a different team last Sunday and Monday afternoons when under the guidance of their new manager, Cliff Fairfax they scored 4 wins in the 2 days. The Sabbath engagements resulted in 7-6 and 13-4 verdicts, while those of the holiday ended, 13-4 and 8-2. The D. C. Specials proved themselves to be a troupe of hitters and threw a scare into the camp of the Giants when they pressed their opponents for a 7-6 win. Matthews won his own game in this encounter when he walked, stole second and scored on Dent's one baser to right center. Joe Harris pitched credibly and held the visitors at bay through the second tilt. A barrage of P. G. hits in the eighth inning of the opening Labor Day clash completely snowed a Hecht lead under. Matthews was the whole show in the nightcap. Despite the fact that he had labored the day previous, the P. G. hurler held the Hechtmen to 4 scratch hits. Fairfax and Proctor were the fielding stars. **Glants vs. Specials** **Giants** ab h r **Specials** ab h r Miller,1b 2 0 0 S.Page,cf 3 1 0 Tra'am,1b 2 1 2 Hickm'n,cf 2 1 1 Fairfax,cf 4 2 1 R.Page,c 2 0 0 Conrad,cf 1 1 1 R.Ray,c 2 1 1 Jackson,ss 4 1 1 Glilmore,2b 4 0 0 Kenar,e'3b 4 3 3 Davis,3b 4 0 1 Vency,lf 4 2 1 Carroll,rf,5 1 0 Proctor,2b 5 3 2 F.Scott,ss 3 0 0 Little'd,rf 5 1 1 Peyton,rf 5 0 0 Wooden,c 4 2 0 T.Ray,p 1 0 0 J.Harris,p 3 2 0 Frazier,lf 2 1 0 Banktell,lf 1 0 0 Mack 1 1 1 Clemona,1b 4 1 0 Totals 38 18 13 Totals .39 7 4 Two-base hits—Fairfax, Kenarde, Conrad, Conrad, Hickman, Mack, Clemons.

CAPTURES PAIR OF GAMES "Mose" Holman and his fast stepping Goodalls gained a double victory last Sunday and added, materially, to their string of season's wins. The Incarnations were taken into camp, 16-5 in the first encounter and the Anacostia Hilldales were counted out 19-16 in the finale. Melvin and Wood were the winning hurlers for the Goodall combination. The victory over the Incarnations puts them on an equal footing with their rivals for the season's series, while the Hilldales are on the short end of a 2 to 1 count for the season's series.

On Sunday the Black Barons were defeated after having lost the first game of the scheduled double bill by forfeiture. Frazier and Webster were in the limelight over the Colesville week-end. Frazier was the winning pitcher in both battles. Sunday he fanned 12 Black Barons and returned to the hill Monday to make 10 Forestville whiffs the ozone. Webster, Colesville third baseman, had a perfect at bat on the holiday. He got 7 hits in 7 trips plateward. The Jungle Cats collected 25 bingles Labor Day.

PIRATES TAKE BOTH FROM FORESTVILLE FORESTVILLE, Md.—The Washington Pirates scored a double victory over the Forestville Athletics in a Tribune League twin attraction out here last Sunday. The scores were 16-11 and 3-0. The second game lasted only 5 innings. The matinee battle was a combination of good pitching, hard hitting and erratic fielding. There were totals of 25 strike-outs, 40 hits and 6 errors which indicate just what took place while the 27 runs were being scored. Young, Forestville hurler, fanned 13 while Neal, his mound opponent whiffed 12. Jimmie Butler, Pirate first-sacker, garnered 4 hits and thus led the batters.

The Sox score book reads as follows: 14-4, 7-6, 8-4 and 7-10. Lefty George Smith proved the outstanding performer of the Sabbath battles. After having pitched masterful ball in the opening game, the former LeDroit Tiger southpaw returned to the second game to bat for Faufort and sent a crashing single across the midcushion to score Ford with the tying tally. Smith, during his stay on the hill kept the Irishman's 10 hits well scattered and in the meantime baffled 6 batters. Erma Euell, newest addition to the Black Sox roster played creditably at third base. The 3 errors he committed in the course of the afternoon were not costly. Besides he redeemed himself with the flail when he contributed 4 hits to the Sox cause in the first game, and 1 in the nightcap. Fred Lyman started the second Shamrock contest, but was withdrawn during an alien rally in the sixth inning. Gil Bland relieved him and got credit for the victory. It was in this encounter that Ford's aggregation proved themselves, for one of the very few times, a fighting lot. Having had a 3-1 lead snatched from them by virtue of a 4-run rally in the visitors' sixth, the colored boys amassed 5 successive hits and inserted some stellar base running to match the Shamrocks' scores. Cook Nickens, in great form, stood a combination of Oriental, Myrtles, Piedmonts and Washington Giants on their heads in the opening holiday tilt. He was never in trouble. Sam Lacy, whose mediocre pitching has resulted in the poorest season of his career, was again forced to the showers when the Giants showed a liking to his offerings and threatened to swamp the semi-pros. Next Sunday the Barber brothers and their highly touted Myrtle A. C combination will journey to the Fifteenth and H Streets Ball Lot to do battle with the Sox. The Myrtles have done some fast stepping this season, and the Sox anticipate tough sledding. A good crowd was on hand long before game time, the last time these two teams were to meet. A cloudburst, however, drowned all baseball intentions on that occasion. # SUNDAY Shamrocks .....102 000 001—14 Black Sox .....038 010 200—14 Second Game Sham'ks ab h o Bl.

GRID ASPIRANTS OUT SEPTEMBER 15 Coach Watson has issued an invitation to forty candidates to return for pre-season football practice, starting September 15 on the university campus. Of this number thirty are veterans of last year's championship squad. The coach, who established himself last season as a state disciplinarian, has indicated his determination to carry out his program with whatever material he finds present on September 15. He rehearsed last season's experience when such valuable men as Bob Miller, Harry Payne and others found it impossible to break into the first line-up because the first string had been selected before these men reported. "Knute," as his men affectionately refer to him, believes in combinations. He figures that a football eleven works with the greatest efficiency when each man senses what his mates are doing and is giving all he has to his own job at the same time. He therefore plans to re-organize his men into playing combinations not later than September 20. The first game of the 1927 schedule is called October 1. Veterans to Return In looking over the roster, it is interesting to note that ten veterans are already in Washington. They are Captain Smith, Tick Smith, Pete Teyn, Kelley, Hawes, Hall, Ben Brown, Louis Campbell, Sallie, Simpson and Manager Buck Braden. Others expected to report are: Jack Coles, Hoss Ross, Dan Brown, Payne, Hinton, Jack Young, Snake Ewell, Captain Biff Martin, Ellison, Hawkins, Bob Miller, Rainey, Webb, Thomas, Price Hunter, Jefferson and Andy Smith. In addition to this formidable array of veterans, a likely group of recruits will get a try-out. The Howard schedule for this season is elsewhere's on this page.

HUSBAND REGAINS LOVE OF TRUANT WIFE IN "SLAVES OF BEAUTY" AT THE REPUBLIC When a man loves a woman in spite of herself he is quite apt to make a heroic sacrifices for her.

"Slaves of Beauty" will be shown at the Republic on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, September 11, 12 and 13. There is much to commend in "Slaves of Beauty." It is a colorful and fascinating drama.

Mix is ably supported by Tony, his wonder horse, "The Last Trail" is a whirlwind story of the plains by Zane Grey. A sure-fire combination for your DUKE ELLINGTON SETS NORTHEAST DANCE-CRAZY Duke Ellington and his Washington Jazz Band, according to the Salem Sunday Tribune, has been the biggest hit in the history of jazz tunes in the Northeastern states, not excluding Paul Whiteman, Vincent Lopez, George Olsen, Ross Gorman and Coon Sanders. And even sophisticated New York has fallen under the spell of these exponents of jazz. Three years ago while in New York, Duke Ellington and his Washingtonians answered the call of the dance craze of the New England State. They had been preceded by the best orchestras that New York had to offer. But, "with bowed heads, in token of entertainment Tom Mix and Tony in a Zane Grey story. On Saturday only, there will be three big talent shows at 5:30, 7:30 and 9:30. LON CHANEY IN "MR. WU" AT THE BROADWAY For Sunday and Monday the Broadway Theatre will present the one and only Lon Chaney in "Mr. Wu" supported by a cast of real stars — Louise, Dresser, Renee Adoree and Ralph Forbes. It will hold you spellbound from start to finish. When you see how he killed for love then later spared for hate.

Duke, however, came, saw, and conquered. They pounded out number after number that left the dancer standing firm on the floor, applauding, refusing to move, stamping their feet, screaming, practically demanding an encore, then another—and then—just one more. Contracted for Broadway The New England tour of Duke and his boys in 1925 came to an abrupt end after four weeks of triumph, when they were obliged to return and fulfill an over-due contract at the Hollywood Inn. They gave even Broadway a new thrill in dance music, and from then on Hollywood Inn was the mecca for Broadway's after-the-theatre dance set. The Washingtonians held forth at the Hollywood Inn from October, 1925, to June, 1926, and this brief period was perhaps the brightest in the career of the orchestra. During these eight months, the band practically monopolized the headlines of the New York papers. If they weren't scheduled to play at some mammoth society charity affair, they were billed as headliners at Shubert's select Sunday evening concert at the Winter Garden, or entertaining some select group of Earl Carroll's friends—not the wine bath type—at the Earl Carroll Theatre. These were just in-between-engagements. Every night from 11 till 5, they could be found seated on their cozy little platform at the Inn. Mecca for Musicians Some mornings, along toward two or three, when all the ballrooms and clubs had closed their doors, Hollywood resembled a musician's convention. Musicians from every corner of New York would flock to Hollywood Inn and sit till daylight, all eyes and ears, listening to the weird sounds and harmonious strains that sort of glistened from the instruments of the Washingtonians on the platform before them. If you were to glance around the Inn, you would notice the greatest musical leaders of America seated at this table or that one. Paul Whiteman and Vincent Lopez spent many an hour at Hollywood Inn and not a moment wasted. They were learning something every minute. Music Recorded The fame of the Washingtonians became so widespread that they received a flattering offer which they accepted, to flash their music over the entire world by making records for the Brunswick and Vocalion Recording Co. The first record was a huge success HIS BIGGEST AND BEST PRODUCTION MISS CHISUM RETURNS TO CITY Mr. and Mrs. John Hanks of 1734 Eleventh street, northwest, accompanied by Mrs. Esther Tolson Rudd of 247 N street, northwest, left by motor for Chicago St. Louis and other points west for a stay of two weeks. Mr. and Mrs. Hanks will visit relatives and friends and on the return trip will be accompanied by Miss Bernice Chisum. Miss Chisum who is a graduate of Howard University, was attending Chicago University for a Master's Degree. ATTEND NATIONAL CHRISTIAN CONVENTION HERE M. R. Powell, first assistant librarian of the House of Representatives, headed a party of delegates who were in attendance of the National Christia Convention, assembled here last week. The convention party represented citizens from Kansas and Missouri. Among them were Rev. T. W. Crawford, Rev. T. W. Pratt of Dallas, Tex., Rev. P. H. Moss, Miss Lula Bernice Scott, Mrs. W. J. Holloway, William J. Lane, and Mrs. Katherine Jones. FRYE TO TEACH IN COATS-VILLE Albert S. Frye, of 1524 T street northwest, left the city September 1, for Coatsville. Pa., where he will teach manual art in the Junior High School. He is a member of the 1925 graduating class of Miner Normal School. MONTE CARLOS CLUB RECEIVES Through the exerted efforts of the manager, Mr. Eddy North, and and those that followed proved to be leading sellers on the music market. Recently, a New York Brunswick dealer received an order of one hundred Washingtonian records for Australia. Apparently, there is nothing unusual about this orchestra, yet, when you start dancing to it you don't want to stop. When you waltz you sort of wander off into a dream, the music is so soothing. Their slow fox-trot, a la southern style, brings out that soft, weird, enhancing effect that sends you sort of creeping over the floor, and when they play a fast one for contrast they simply sweep you off your feet. Most of the credit for the success of the orchestra is due to Duke Ellington, owner, leader, and pianist. The star role in the band is shared by "Bub" Miley, trumpeter, and "Sonny" Greer, the drummer. Mr. Whiteman says that "Bub" is the "hottest" trumpet player that ever set foot on Broadway. "Sonny" is the l'e and pep of the band. Direction, A. E. Lichtman Mme. Causby's Beauty Shoppe and School ```markdown ``` me.

The members spend their evenings there in reading, playing games, and listening to good moral talks from such people who can inspire and help them reach the goal. Visitors Sunday were from such walks of life as to be able to assist in the upbuilding of the club's home and uplifting of these young men.

NEW DANCE INTRODUCED IN "AFRICANA" NEW YORK CITY.—The newly devised totem dance, adapted from the Canadian Eskimo tribes, is being introduced in the production "Africana" which is current at the National Theatre here. George W. Shefler, of Canada and Alaska, who is the most prominent instructor on the faculty of the National Canadian School of Dancing, personally supervising the rehearsals of chorus and principals of Ethel Waters' ebony evune in this new gyration which Mr. Shefler demonstrated recently at the Convention of Dancing Masters at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. According to Mr. Shefler, the dance is particularly suited to the revue inasmuch as it bears a rhythmic resemblance to the characteristic dance of the Negro. Mr. Shefler has also expressed the opinion that the totem dance is the logical successor to the black bottom as it is not only unusual but has the virtue of being easily learned. ```markdown ``` Expert Operators.

Walls, in- vading moundsmen held the home team to 5 well scattered bingles, CUBAN STARS NOW LEAD EASTERN LEAGUE Alejandro Pompez’s Cuban Stars have slipped into the lead in the Eastern Colored League and with the present lay-out for the re- mainder of the league schedule have an excellent chance to cop the second half bunting and there- by gain the opportunity to play & post-season series with the Ba- charach Giants for the league championship. While ‘tis true that to date the Islanders have en- gaged-in less contests, during the second half, than any other club with the exception of the Brook- lyn Royal. Giants Pompez, the Cuban: mentor, is making it known in no: uncertain tones that the Stars are fulfilling their schedule as staked out by the league sol- ons. * Games Postponed Sunday wash-outs due to rain, has cut quite a swath in the Stars’ schedule. Most of these contests were scheduled at David's stadium, Newark, N. J. where the Island- ers haye been holding forth as the home team. Playing only Sunday dates at home, gives Pompez no opportunity to play off postponed games. The Bradley Beach, N. J., prposition that was thrown over by the local promoter also affected the Cubans because of a number of contests that were booked there but which now cannot be played. At the present time with eight wins and six losses the Cubans can afford to lose five of their re- naining twelve games. The Ba- charachs must. win six out of nine games to finish out in front. Both the Harrisburg Giants and Hill- dales who are traveling at a .500 clip bave an outside chance to win the flag. ‘Taking opportunity by, the fore locks, Pompez has added some youthful talent to his fast travel- ing Stars that will not only help him in the present dash for the Bennant, but will add the ever necessary vigor to veteran team. From the Habana Red Sox the Stars have secured Telele Val- gas an eighteen-year-old youth who is fitting in at short stop like Pelaye Chacon in the palmy days of his youth. The other newcomer is Paul Pedverse a young catcher who is helping out “Iron Man” Fernandez with the receiving chores. Both youngsters are agile and have shown great bursts of speed on the base paths, especially Valgas who is credited with doing a hundred yards in less than ten seconds in full baseball attire. LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, Pa. Sept. 3.—Active preparations have already bezun for the forthcoming football season here. Dr, Ed Mor- rison, the new coach, has been on the grounds since the first of Au- gust, and is getting ready for the arrival of the prospective mem. bers of the squad. ¥ A call has been sent out te twen- ty-five men to report on Septem- ber 10 to begin preliminary prac- fice. A new pity s new. tackling dummy, a new ‘bucking machine have been installed and it is, like- ly that the location of the present football field will be changed to the other end of the campus where the baseball field is now located. ‘A large number of new men who have made excellent reputations at other schools as football stars have registered for entrance this year, and the prospects of a for- midable “Lion” machine are more favorable than has been for sev- eral years past. Lincoln will have to get in good shape very earl: because of the unusually hard schedule which has been arranged. The first game will be with Agricultural and Tech- nical College at Greensboro, N.
