IMMIGRATION
The five-year sentence of Marcus Garvey for using the mails to defrain in connection with his "back to Africa" Negro colonization project, has been commuted so that he may be deported, was announced Thursday.
Local United States immigration officials, who hold a warrant for his deportation as an undesirable alien, said Garvey would be sent to Jamaica "in the near future."
Garvey still has hanged over him an indictment charging perjury, and a divorce suit. The indictment charges that he made a fraudulent income tax return.
A reconsideration of the application of Garvey was begun when Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General, recommend to Attorney General John
METRO. BAPTIST
MEMBERS DENY
STATEMENTS
In a statement issued Tuesday, November 22, the officers and members of Metropolitan Baptist Church, denied the implication that the church had not done its full duty to its late pastor, the Rev. M. W. D. Norman. The statement also denies that the church needed to borrow money. It calls attention to the fact that it has now and has had for many years, a healthy bank balance.
The full statement follows:
Members Resent Criticism
"The members of the Metropolitan Baptist Church express regret that Mrs. Ethel N. Norman, widow of the late Rev. M. W. D. Norman, should seek the public press to insinuate that the church and deacons showed lack of consideration for Dr. Norman in his last illness.
"The members say that no one knows better than Mrs. Norman that during the five months of Dr. Norman's illness, when he was unable to render the church any service, his full salary was paid regularly; no one knows better than she that the church willingly bore the expense of three specialists to treat him in an effort to have him restored to health, and wanted to furnish others, but by objection of the wife were not permitted to do so; no one knows better than she that every want of the beloved pastor was administered by the church without regard to cost, supplying such comforts as scales on which to weigh, electric fan and the like, and, that no objection was ever interposed by any member of the church except such as she herself interposed.
"She also knows, say the members, that in the matter of the note of $1000, deacons tried to have her as executrix pay the honest claim without making public such personal relations between the church and her late husband as the facts surrounding that note involved.
"The members say that many persons expressed the belief that Mrs. Norman was not actuated by wholly unselfish motives in the matter and that her suggestion that the deacons needed to borrow money is the grossest ingratitude. The church has now and has had for many years past a healthy bank balance and therefore did not have, and does not now have any need to borrow."
This statement was signed by the offical board of the church.

He was committed to the Atlanta penitentiary, February 8, 1925. He has been eligible for parole since October 7, 1926.
MAN IS KILLED AT UNION STATION IN ARGUMENT
MAN IS KILLED AT UNION STATION IN ARGUMENT
Embarrassment over a request for chitterlings led to an altercation in the smoking room of the Union Station last Saturday afternoon and resulted in the cutting to death of William H. Boyd, alias Leon Copeland, 38, of 917½ Second street southwest and 242 Bond street, Baltimore, Md.
A coroner's jury on Monday ordered William A. Parker, 27, of 272 Forest street, Baltimore, Md., held for the action of the grand jury.
rather told the police that he and Boyd were on their way to Richmond, Va. They had come from Baltimore. They had considerable time to wait for a train to Richmond. Boyd suggested that they visit some "lady" friends in South Washington. This they did.
Boyd purchased some liquor. When they started out, Parker said he saw a pot of pig chitterlings on the stove. He stopped to try to buy some. Boyd ordered him to come on or he would leave him. Boyd left first. Parker got a taxicab and followed.
Embarrassed Over Request
When he got in the smoking room at the Union Station, Boyd cursed him for having embarrassed him before his "lady" friend and then knocked him down, Parker said. They had had previous trouble and he had made up his mind, Parker stated, that if Boyd ever hit him again, he was going to kill him. He drew a pocket knife with a two-inch blade and began slashing Boyd about the left breast.
The knife blade punctured the left lung and intestines. The cutting occurred about 6 o'clock. Boyd died in Casualty Hospital about 9 o'clock that night. Parker was arrested by Union Station police and turned over to Detective William E. Owens of No. 6 precinct who is detailed at the station.
Headquarters detectives declare that both men have police records. Boyd is known in local police circles as a film-flam artist, a three-card monte dealer. Parker, they say, has a police record in Baltimore.

HOWARD STUDENTS APPOINTED AS CLERKS THROUGH CIVIL SERVICE
As the result of a competitive examination held last February under the Civil Service Commission, three Howard University students have been appointed as clerks in the city post office. The appointments date from November 1.
The appointees are James E. Walker, '27; Stanford Dougherty, '28; and Baxter Goodall, '29. Each of these students received a rating above 94 per cent.
Goodall is editor-in-chief of the Hilltop, the university student publication. He is from Charleston, S. C. The other two are residents of this city. They will serve as distributors and will work outside of school hours.
TORNADODAMAGE TO ST. CYPRIAN'S REACHES $10,000
the tornado which swept its way through Washington last Thursday left $10,000 worth of evidence that it had been here on St. Cyprian's Catholic Church and the parish hall and rectory immediately adjoining.
The twisting winds blew the cross off the top of the church building, tore the rectory practically to pieces, ripped out the walls on one side, lifted the roof, and smashed out the windows of and parish hall.
Although each of the buildings were occupied during the tornado, the parish hall and the rectory, only one person was hurt. Joseph A. Butler, 1624 Capitol street, was the only one injured. He was struck by flying debris. Three priests, Monsignieu J. R. Matthews, pastor; two assistants, Gravenstein and Romeo; and two servants, Miss Amelia Chews and the sexton, were in the rectory when it was struck. In the parish hall, there were thirty-six students and three sisters. No one was hurt.
Repairs have been started on the buildings. The priests have moved their quarters to a house on East Capitol street between Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets. The rectory will be ready for occupancy again about the first of the year.
TO HOLD NEGRO LABOR CONFAB
NEW YORK, Nov. 21. - It was announced by A. Philip Randoph, organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, from the headquarters of the union today that a conference on Negro labor for New York would be held here, Friday, December 2. The purpose of this conference is to awaken a community interest in the problems of labor as they affect the Negro. This conference will be composed of representatives from all sections of the community, and from the organized labor movement of New York.
It has been projected as a result of the obvious difficulties which Negro labor encounters both with respect to securing work and receiving a reasonable and just wage for work.
Some of the signers to the call are: The Rev. A. Clayton Powell, John B. Nail, The Rev. Shelton Hale Bishop, Counselor John Clifford Hawkins, Counsellor C. T. French, Eugene Kinkle Jones, Mrs. Alise McDougal, The Rev. William Lloyd Imes, The Rev. W. P. Hayes, and Dr. Godfrey Nurse.
A. Philip Randoph, director of the conference, will announce the place of meeting and supply any one with information as to its structure and function.

It is believed that the university authorities have by this time realized that re-entrance into the organization is the most advanced move toward wiping out the yearly deficit in the conduct of athletics at Howard which deficit in 1927 is reported to have reached $2100. Information coming from reliable sources lead to the belief that a mending of relationship between
SUPREME COURT TO INTERVENE OF KENTUCH
Nathan Bard and Bunyan Fleming must pay with their lives for a criminal assault on Nellie Breithaupt, 16-year-old white girl, in Hopkins County, Kentucky, on the night of April 7, 1926, for which they were convicted under the forms of law but not under a due process of law.
The Supreme Court of the United States on Monday refused to intervene in this Kentucky case and denied their petition for a writ of certiorari under which they sought to have the highest court review their conviction and sentence. No written opinion or memorandum was handed down.
This case established a record for speedy trials in Kentucky. The two men were indicted on April 23, 1926. Their trial began on April 27. They had only two days, Saturday and Monday in which to secure counsel and prepare to defend their lives. They were tried, convicted, given the death penalty, motion for a new trial overruled and the death sentence pronounced, all within three days.
Barred from Lawyer
Roscoe Conkling, a white lawyer, undertook of defend Fleming. He was not permitted to speak to his client until about fifteen or twenty minutes before the trial and only in the presence of court officers.
A colored lawyer, Walter Robinson, of Hopkinsville, Ky., went to Madisonville to defend Bard.
BETTER SERVICE PLANNED ON LEDROIT CAR LINE
In a letter, written by W. F. Ham, president of the Washington Railway and Electric Company to Ralph R. Tibbs, 1311 Third street, northwest, promise of better car service on the LeDroit Park car line was given. Mr. Tibbs had written Mr. Ham, complaining of the poor service on this line.
In his answer, Mr. Ham declared that sufficient cars were provided for this line to make the cars run with a frequency of every seven or eight minutes, which is commensurate with the number of passengers carried; but the poor service is due to the fact that the cars are not able to make schedule because of the traffic jams occurring on G. street.
the C.I.A.A. and the school will soon be affected.
Dr. Davis' Statement
Dr. E. P. Davis, chairman of the Board of Athletic Control at Howard was approached on the subject. In reply to the writers' query in regard to Howard's stand, Dr. Davis made the following statement: "Howard met with officials of the C.I.A.A. on October 7 at which time a very friendly atmosphere prevailed. While no definite action has been taken the move is under advisement here. The matter will be discussed at the next meeting of the C.I.A.A. which is to be held at Union University, Richmond, December 9 and 10. After that the relationship between the C.I.A.A. and Howard will no doubt be closer."
On December 18, 1924, the Howard University Board of Athletic Control voted on two drastic changes in the athletic policy at the school. The appointment of Louis L. Watson as head coach of (Continued on page 7)

He was escorted out of town by the militia.
Lillie Fleming, the wife of Bunyan Fleming, was arrested and kept in jail for three weeks. She was not permitted to testify in her husband's behalf.
The entire community was incensed. The daily press published inflammatory articles each day. When this assault was committed, Judge Ruby Laffon declared that an emergency existed and called a special term of court to try the men, although the regular term began in a few days. Conditions were such that prominent citizens made speeches pleading with the citizens to let Bard and Fleming be tried and not to lynch them. The militia was called out.
A jury selected from this body of infuriated and aroused citizens tried the men.
After the trial, counsel for the convicted men declared that no constitutional or other right of Bard and Fleming was protected. An effort was made to secure their release from the state penitentiary where they had been sent to await execution by a writ of habeas corpus. The United States District Court denied this writ. Justices Holmes and Brandes last summer granted the two men stays of execution in order that the Supreme Court of the United States might determine whether it would pass upon the question of whether the state court trial was in violation of their constitutional right to due process of law.

GIRL IS BEATEN BY HOLD-UP MAN ON V STREET
Miss Marion Smallwood, pretty young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Smallwood, of 783 Fairmont street was the victim Sunday night of a brutal attack at the hands of a hold-up man. She is now at her home recovering from a scalp wound she sustained.
Miss Smallwood was on her way to a friend's house about 7 o'clock Sunday evening at the time the attack occurred. She was walking north on the west side of Thirteenth street when, noticing two colored men standing at the corner of V street she decided to cross, to the other side.
Doing this Miss Smallwood was surprised to see one of them crossing behind her. She turned into V street and the man followed. Upon reaching the spot just back of the Lincoln Theatre Colonnade the man caught up with and accosted her with a revolver.
Strikes Girl
"Hand me your pocketbook," the man is alleged to have said. Miss Smallwood immediately complied with his request. He then threatened her and she screamed. A sudden blow on the head with the butt of the gun, knocked Miss Smallwood down. Her assailant then ran to Thirteenth street where he rejoined his companion and disappeared out V street toward Fourteenth.
A passing taxi carried her home. She then went, accompanied by her mother to Freedmen's Hospital where she was treated for scalp laceration and shock.
The pocketbook contained five street car tokens and two sticks of chewing gum. She were gloves that hid a valuable diamond ring, which she was wearing.
Miss Smallwood asserts she can easily identify her assailant if the opportunity arises.

UNION LOSES TO HAMPTON
RICHMOND, Va.—Hampton defeated Union 12 to 7 in their annual Thanksgiving classic here. A crowd of nearly 4000 enthusiasts witnessed the contest. The game was well played and was minus any incident of disorder or squabbling. In the first quarter Union opened a drive that gained them over 30 yards but Hampton rallied and stopped them. After an exchange of punts Hampton came in possession of the ball near Union's 30-yard line and from here started a drive that earned them the first goal. Jones carried the ball over. The try for point failed. In the second quarter no serious threat was made by either team. But opening the third quarter Union started another drive. They carried the ball to Hampton's two-yard line only to lose it down. However, when Hampton attempted to kick out of danger, the kick was bad and it was Union's ball on the fifteen-yard line. This time the red and white warriors were able to carry the ball over for their first and only touchdown "Horse" Moton carried the ball over. On a line plunge the extra point was earned.
Opening an attack in the fourth quarter Hampton swept down the field for its second goal. "Wild Man" Lee carried the ball over. They again failed in the try for the extra point. The game ended with Hampton within the shadow of Union's goal.
For Union the stars were Lee, Williams and Jones. For Hampton "Wild Man" Lee, Ruffin, Gardner and Washington.

IDEAL DAY
By Sam Lacy
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 24.
—Twenty thousand persons sat here in Shibe Park today and witnessed the twenty-third annual Howard-Lincoln Thanksgiving Day football classic. Twenty thousand voices, a mingle of groans and cheers, sounded, and forty thousand eyes danced or clouded as Howard emerged the victor—20 to 0.
The Bisons ended a disastrous season amid a blaze of glory while the Lions ended an equally disastrous year in an equally disastrous finish. Each team had lost a greater portion of its season games and each team with its rooters hoped to redeem itself by annexing the Turkey Day clash.
An ideal November day smiled on the carefully laid gridiron as "Tick" Smith, Howard's versatile halfback, gathered in the opening kick-off and started a great game with a great rush.
The Bisons scored after 7 minutes of play had elapsed. Ross circled his own left end for 22 yards and a touchdown following a march down field in which "Tick" Smith and "Snake" Ewell figured very prominently. The Blue and White cheering section went wild.
Captain "Bill" Martin shared with "Tick" Smith, "Snake" Ewell and "Horse" Ross the starring role. The Bison leader snared 2 alien passes in a game in which alien passes were rained most successfully and with each interception gained good distance.
Had the Lions elected to pass earlier in the game instead of attempting to pierce the Howard forward wall the result may have been different.

TEN
DILIGENCE IN BUSINESS There are indications in many parts of the country that progressive, forward-looking Negroes are giving thoughtful and serious consideration to business enterprises, and to organization and development along business and commercial lines. This movement is one of vital and fundamental importance, and goes to the very heart of the question of the status the Negro is to occupy in the life and progress of the nation.
While not under-rating or gainsaying the importance or necessity of the cultural development of the race—which is now occupying so much space in the magazines of the day, and receiving so much attention from certain of our intelligentsia—it would be well to keep in mind that art and literature, and the leisure necessary to the cultivation of these, exist only where they rest upon a sound economic and commercial and industrial foundation.
Our attention, in this connection, has been called to an association of business and professional men of our race recently formed at Columbus, Ohio.
The programme which they adopted at their opening dinner is so admirably and forcibly expressed and contains principles of such universal application, that we have no hesitation in quoting their four chief objectives literally: 1. To increase the patronage of
1. To increase the patronage of our business institutions.
2. To maintain their efficiency and secure their permanency.
3. To develop and foster new and varied enterprises.
4. To open new avenues of employment and improve the general economic condition of our citizens.
Here are four objects that should engage the labor and energy of our leaders in every community where our people live in numbers large enough to form an effective group.
The objects are meritorious; only to state them is to carry conviction to the mind of every earnest thinker and doer.
In Washington City there are approximately 135,000 colored people. How many of them patronize our business institutions? A goodly number, but nothing like as many as should, both from the point of view of racial progress and of individual interest. What are we doing to maintain the efficiency and secure the permanence of existing ventures? This is a matter deserving careful consideration. Then there are great gaps in our business world in Washington that should be filled. There are many lines of business activity which our people need, both for investment and for social service, into which colored men and women have not entered.
There remains the general economic condition of our people. They must have employment, and at wages which will enable them to live in decency, support a family, educate those dependent on them, and save something for the surely coming "rainy day." We are constantly hammering at these matters. We shall continue to do so, without in the least ceasing to emphasize the cultural side of life. Our financial, economic, industrial and commercial weakness must engage more of our thought and effort.
THE CONSTITUTION AND THE POLITICAL GAME
There is a good deal of discussion in the public press at the present time about the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, and incidentally about the Negro vote in the South. A moderately intelligent person will not have to seek far to find out why there is now a revival of discussion of these matters. There are just two reasons for this revived interest: the impending fight in the Senate, at the approaching session of Congress, upon the seating of Senator-elect Smith of Illinois, and Senator-elect Vare of Pennsylvania; and the onslaught that the "wets" are making upon the Eighteenth Amendment and the Volstead Act.
It would be a malancholy error for anyone to suppose that there is any serious intention in any quarter to re-open the question of voting conditions in the South. The
proponents of the seating of Smith and Vare are, in effect, saying to Southern senators: "If you vote against seating Smith and Vare, we propose to look into suffrage conditions in the South; but if you vote to seat them, things may continue as they are."
Those who favor repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment and the Volstead Act are saying to the South: "You are an inveterate and persistent violator of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. In view of that fact, how dare you to point an accusing finger at violations of the Eighteenth Amendment? Now come, let's be reasonable. Consent either to the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment and the Volstead Act, or a modification of the Volstead Act, and we will chide you no more about your constitutional shortcomings. The time has come when all constitutional gangsters and gunmen should stand together."
This whole matter illustrates in the most unmistakable terms the general conditions of lawlessness, and lack of respect for law that pervades all classes and strata of society in this country. It indicates that orderly government is in an uncertain condition; that apparently all moral standards have been reduced to the lowest terms, and that law as law has lost much of its former prestige.
As self-respecting human beings and loyal citizens of the republic we must express our utter disgust at constantly being used as pawns and stalking horses in the game of politics. And yet it is our firm conviction that the attitude of the general public in the matter of law enforcement is in great part the result of acquiescence in the social, political and economic outlawry of Negroes. It is one of the inexorable laws of the human mind that it is impossible to be unjust to any group of persons, without giving to the mind the general impression of injustice. The character of the dominant group of the American people is determined and fixed, in large measure, by the regard in which this dominant group holds the American Negro.
If the Negro will take time to learn the facts in this new agitation, and then carefully analyze them, he will find that his mental stature will thereby be greatly increased and also his self-respect.
AFTER WARTIMES

MORE ADVENTURES IN THE
MAIL SERVICE
All the mail route agents in Florida and Georgia were glad to be rid of Special Agent Walker. It is wonderful how much trouble a man "clothed with a little brief authority," can give those in subordinate places unde: him.
When Timothy had been in the mail service a month he received a registered letter chaser from the Department, and he got anxious at once, as all mail agents do until they find that they have a proper receipt for the missing package. When he got the leisure on the way to Jacksonville, Timothy ran through his registration book hastily and was surprised not to find any entry of the package at all. It looked as if he had never received it. Time and again he went through the book with the same result. It looked black. If an agent could not show a receipt for a package traced to him he was promptly arrested by a United States marshal.
Timothy fretted and fumed all the way to Jacksonville, but search after search did not show anywhere that he had received the package indictated by the tracer. When he reached the Jacksonville post office he called the matter to the attention of Felix A. Canover, a clerk with whom he had long worked, and a very fine white man, a sort of head of the clerical force. He went through the book carefully once or twice and could find no trace of the package. He was puzzled, as he never for a moment questioned Timothy's integrity. But here was the tracer and there was no record of the letter.
Timothy went to his home for refreshments and rest and felt "down in the mouth." He prided himself on his honesty and here he was as it seemed, face to face with the United States marshal with a warrant for his arrest.
When he returned to the post office in the afternoon to g, out on his run, Timothy lad very little spirit left in him. He was limp with apprehension. Mr. Canover told him he had been thinking over
the matter of the tracer ever since his attention had been called to it and that he had reached the conclusion that the missing package must have been recorded in an old registration book that Timothy had to take on his first run out (as it was two weeks after he entered the service before his outfit came from Washington). The suggestion seemed to be a life saver, to the young agent. The two of them went after that old book in a hurry and were soon poring over its entries. Their search bore immediate results. They soon came upon the entry of the missing package, with the signature of a Florida division agent after it. What a relief! Life at once appeared again to be worth while.
The young man who had signed for the package was unable to show that he had delivered it to the next due to receive it, and he was arrested and tried and sentenced to servet time in a Federal prison. He was a fine specimen of a man of the race, but he could not deny himself the temptation of living beyond his means after becoming an agent and making more money than he had ever made before. He got into the "fast set" and ruined his life. Everybody was scry for him, because he was popular and likable. He and the postal clerk who took Timothy's place in the post office when the latter had a row with the acting postmaster, were the only Afro-American employees who went wrong and were jailed during the Reconstruction days in Florida. Does it pay to be honest? Certainly, when not dealing with crooks.
Laying over at Chattahoochee, as I have said, was a very disagreeable business, as there were no houses there, with the exception of the station's agent's shack. Being single, he lived in a part of the shack and had a handy man to help with the freight and do his housework.
He was a young man with a fiery temper and was known to be quick with his pistol. He was the son of a former Confederate general, and as full of arrogance and insolence as an oyster is of meat. The staton was five miles from the river and the agent met the boat from Chattahoochee and Columbus by hand car, which his handy man worked—and a handcar requires some hard work!
To while away the time, Timothy and the handy man used to go up or down the road a short ways to pick blackberries and loaf. They did not go far, and were always back in time to take the station agent to the boat.
One day they went farther than usual and the boat reached the landing and was blowing lustily for the agent while they were yet some distance up the track. When they reached the station the agent was crazy, with anger, and went after the handy man, who was very much afraid of him.
Timothy knew General Dickinson very well, having come in contact with him in the Tallahassee days. He was a very amiable, affable and courteous gentleman of the old school. He also knew young Dickinson very well. And Timothy never came into contact with a white or black man he was afraid of. He promptly stepped between young Dickinson and the handy man, explaining that he and not the handy man was to blame and that he was very sorry the thing happened.
Young Dickinson's wrath oozed out rapidly and he remarked that if that was the way of it he would overlook it, but he did not want it to happen again. And it did not. The chances are that if young Timothy had not stepped in young Dickinson would have given the handy man a good licking as well as a cussing. He had a reputation for doing that sort

KIDDIES' CORNER
CHRISTMAS SEALS
(The National Tuberculosis Association, member of the National Heath Council, has begun its twentieth annual Christmas seal sale. Most of the readers of the Kiddies' Corner know its motto: "All for Health—Health for all." Its sale of Christmas seals is worthy of your assistance, whether it be to sell the seals, or to buy them. You can'get an idea of the nature of the work done by the association by reading the story, "Polly's 'Choose' Story" which follows.—Editor.)
POLLY'S "CHOOSE" "STORY
(Continued from last week)
By Elizabeth Cole
"The knight," shouted Polly, "I thought you'd get hir. in somewhere, Mother."
"Yes, sir, there stood the knight," smiled Mother.
"Poor Thomas was so surprised he almost forgot he had lost all h's potatoes. His eyes nearly popped out of his head. The squire by now had scrambled up and his eyes were nearly popped out of his head.
"Well, my lad," smiled the knight, 'what's a knight for, if not to help the weak? I've watched you looking at those cows and longing for their creamy milk for many a day so I changed places with the squire's man today. Now, squire, how about giving this young man one of these cows to milk every day? Then, son, you can get some flesh on that thin body of yours.'
"The squire glowered at Thomas and the knight turned upon him again, 'You big wretch,' he cried, 'if you'd look about amongst the neighbors you'd find many others who need some of the rich milk of your cows—if you don't watch out you'll have no people to be squire over—with your fat selfish ways."
"Good enough for him!" cried Polly, as her Mother showed that the end of the story was near. "He was so mean."
"He certainly was," went on Mother, "and I suppose you think that was the moral of the story?" For Polly and her Mother liked to find morals when the stories were all over.
"Well, there's more than that," said Mother. "You see the knight really knew that milk was good for growing boys."—Mother stopped and looked at Polly.
"Oh, yes," Polly exclaimed, a sudden smile beaming over her face.
"I've a fine moral for this story," went on Mother. "Now the knight realized that milk can protect you against the enemy, Sickness," went on Mother. "The rich squire was Ignorance. You see he didn't know how to rule his people and keep them healthy. So the knight who wanted to help them came to the rescue and told him how bad he was."
"I see," said Polly, "and I bet I know why you told me that story," she exclaimed, her eyes shining.
"Why?" asked Mother, with the same kind of a smile she always had when they had a secret.
"Oh, because I didn't want to drink my milk this morning and made a fuss about it," replied Polly.
"Right you are, my lamb," said Mother, "I don't want a lean little weak Thomas child in my house."
And so saying Mother whisked out of the room, and before Polly could say, "Jack Robinson," she came whisking back with a tall glass of white creamy milk in her hand.
And so you know why you have just read this "choose" story about Polly? Because it is Christmas seal time and when you think of health you will be reminded that this is the season of the year when you can help spread the message of health whenever you buy and sell the penny Christmas seals.

TRIBUNITE'S PLEDGE
1. I will never use the word "nigger."
2. I will learn all that I can about the history and traditions of my Race.
3. I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race, and I will champion my Race wherever I may hear such slander.
4. I will be proud that I am a Negro because God made me one, and, being a Negro, I will do all that I can to add honor to my Race.
THE FIRST THANKSGIVING
By SARAH M. FRAZER
The first Plymouth Thanksgiving in 1621 was held under peculiar circumstances. After the first harvest had been gathered, Governor Bradford and the Pilgrim Fathers decided to summon the body together to the purpose of giving thanks. They invited Masoit, a friendly Indian, to join them. He and his braves, ninety strong, came bringing with them venison and wild turkeys. Since no room or home in the colony was large enough to hold this gathering it, out of necessity, became an outdoor affair.
Everyone gladly did his bit toward preparing the feast. The children gathered wood and tended the fires. The men did the hunting. All the housewives united their efforts. They baked, broiled, stewed and fried all sorts of tasty dishes. They hung wild turkeys, geese, ducks and venison on poles and roasted them over beds of coals. Clam chowder was made hissing hot for the first course. Pastries, cornbread and puddings were especially good for the occasion.
At last all of the food was prepared; and the group was assembled. Tables were set under the pine trees in Nature's dining-room. What was hacking along the line of plates was made up by wooden trenches. If the people did not have silver spoons, they were content with wooden ones. There were knives enough. Some went forkless; but that did not damp their spirits. The children ate by themselves or waited for the second table. What with preaching, feasting, talking and games, the exercises lasted three whole days.
Forty of the band of colonists had died and although sickness had told heavily on this courageous settlement, there were fifty-five of them present at this first Thanksgiving celebration. Of the fifty-five mentioned there were only four women. These, with the young girls and one servant, prepared all of the food for that assemblage of colonists and the ninety Indians besides. Since then Thanksgiving Day has become a recognized holiday in the United States, which is proclaimed by the President of the United States to be observed on the last Thursday in November. It is purely an American institution.
CHAMPIONSHIP

Not all of us can, you see,
If you can't be the "fightingest"

And why should you want to

If you can't be the star of your

Just play on right cheerfully.
Though you can't be a champion
in these things
There's a championship still for
you,
Be the very best-natured boy in
the town,
For good-natured folks are too
few.

THANKSGIVING
In 1620 a brave little group of men and women sailed from Plymouth, England, and landed on the coast of Massachusetts. Severe winter cold and storms dwindled their number. But they worked hard and were able to make ends meet. One year later, a day of thanks was set aside for worship and thanksgiving; and so began our national institution—Thanksgiving.
Today we still celebrate this day; but we wonder if the average . . . student really appreciates the meaning of the day. There are many things we should be thankful for, among which we may mention health, strength, and the opportunity of sharing in great institutions of learning.
Beyond these blessings there is one thing more that most of us should be thankful for, and that is, to be blessed with a mother and a dad—especially a mother. Perhaps it may be a struggle—yes even a sacrifice—to keep some of us here. Are we getting all out of the opportunities that are presented to us? Deep down in our hearts can we give thanks for what we have achieved since last Thanksgiving? If our innermost lives and our actual results were as an open book, would those who are keeping us here be thankful
---
for the heartaches, struggles, and privations endured during these last 365 days, realizing that their struggles have not been in vain? Let us give thanks and begin, as it were, a new leaf: that next year we may truly give thanks for a year well spent; that the folks

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1927
In a letter written to the Tribune William P. Richards, of 2611 Douglas road, southeast, makes an attack on what he considers excessive charging on the part of Negro physicians. His letter reads:
"The average pay of the colored mechanics and laborers and all other classes of workers is only about three dollars per day. The rent is $25 to $40 on an average, per month, with the high cost of living, and the average family is about five people. The expenses per week for food is $10, rent $6, clothes $2, car fare $1.50, and insurance $1, making a total of $20.50. His week's salary is only $18 per week. The average colored doctors are charging three dollars for one visit and $30 to $35 for confinement cases.
"The average pay of the white mechanics and laborers and all other classes of workers is seven dollars per day. The white doctors are charging their people three dollars a visit and $30 to $55 for confinement cases. The aserage white doctors are charging colored people $15 to $20 for confinement cases and bring the instructive visiting nurse free of charge if not able to pay. And they charge our own people two dollars when sick. Whom shall we patronize?"
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
A PREJUDICED MEDDLER
To the Editor of
The Tribune:
I wish through the columns of
your paper to relate an instance
of the most flagrant attempt at
intimidation on the part of a white
man that I have witnessed for a
long while. En route to my work
on Thursday morning, at the corner
of Rhode Island avenue and
Ninth street, I saw a young colored
boy about sixteen years old, who
had been knocked off of his bicycle
by a white man who was driving
a Ford coupe. His plate or license
number was S—3418.
In the coupe beside the driver was a young woman. They had stopped and the young boy was calmly and quietly talking with the white man, possibly getting his permit number, etc. The man doubtless was explaining his side of the accident, when a burly white man, not an officer of the law, stepped from the curb and engaged in conversation with the driver of the Ford. In a few minutes he moved the young colored boy aside and away drove the man who had knocked the boy off of his bicycle, thus nearly demolishing it. The poor boy was left in the street helpless and defenseless.
I should have interfered and remonstrated with the man from the curb had I not been in the street car en route to my work, for my blood fairly boiled when I saw that burly white man seeking to take advantage of one of my race who was not his equal in physical strength. It seemed that he was incensed that a white man should be parleying with a colored boy about running into him and knocking him down.
He was doubtless a Southern "cracker" at whose home they do not take the trouble to explain accidents when colored people are concerned.

CAN SEE NO NEED FOR AN OTHER RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION
To the Editor of the Tribune:
The organization, known as the "Workers of Christ" which is being promoted, by Rev. Walter A. Gray, president of the Baptist Ministers' Conference, and others in the District of Columbia, with headquarters at Eighth and R streets, northwest, set forth in their articles of incorporation that their chief object is to bring together and unite the Christian forces, that a speedy accomplishment of the Christian task may be effected, and to work for the advancement of the Kingdom of God here on earth, and also the workers of Christ purpose to use the principles that Christ laid down as the rule for life and action. It is an Eutopian scheme, worthy of the ambitions of the gentlemen who are as its head.
We believe in the unification of all Christian forces, under the triple declaration of one Lord, one Faith and one Baptism.
Why should this organization operate Home Mission, Education, and Evangelistic Board in imitation of similar boards of the National Baptist Convention of the United States of America, Inc., Dr. L. K. Williams, president, or duplicate like boards of the Mt. Bethel Baptist State Convention, Dr. A. J. Tyler, president, the General Baptist Convention, Dr. W. H. Jernagin, president, and the Mt. Bethel Baptist Association, Dr. Alexander Wilbanks, moderator? It is the view of the writer that this organization, under its incorporation has no right to operate such boards. Even if they have, why should they set up the fourth board or boards when there are three sets of boards doing the same work that they propose to do, all to be supported by the same class of poor people? And, why should some of the prominent members of the organizations to which we have referred, identify themselves with this organization when they know or ought to know that the people are already taxed
NEW YORK, N.Y., Nov. 25- J. A. Rogers, the well known Negro author and journalist who has been in Europe for the past year, has unearthed some very interesting information about Vincente Garreiro, Liberator of Mexico. While in Paris he ran across a description of Guerrero in Larousse, the French encyclopedia, stating that he was "esclave mulatre," meaning "mulatto slave."
In the December number of The Messenger, a Negro monthly magazine published in New York City, Mr. Rogers tells the interesting story of this great man who would be jim-crowed if he lived in the United States today. Says Rogers:
"A singular fact about Guerrero, he could neither read nor write, but like Crispus Attucks, illiterate Negro slave and the first to strike the blow for American independence, he could feel deeply (perhaps all the more because he, too was an escaped slave) the tyranny of Spain—a tyranny that caused her the loss of all her colonies, of every single foot of the vast possessions she once held in the New World."
too heavily by the multiplicity of boards. Again, this organization proposes to care for the sick and bury the dead, a very laudible work, but we are of the opinion that they have no right, under the incorporation, as a religious body, to infringe upon the rights of the benevolent institutions which are now engaged in carrying on this work, in accordance with their incorporations under the laws of the District of Columbia.
I attended a meeting of this organization a few days ago, where they were trying to raise money to start a weekly newspaper. A sterling appeal was made by the president in an effort to raise four hundred dollars as a nucleus from which to start. According to my best recollection, the report showed less than eight dollars raised, but a child has to crawl before it can walk. My object hereby is, to impress upon the brethren the importance of sticking by their unification "bush," and not to impair the usefulness of existing conventions by unnecessary multiplication of useless boards, and to say to them, that their right to care for the sick and bury the dead, under their charter, is unwise if not unlawful, but I am afraid that it is both.

Are you suffering from the misery of a lame, aching back? You can get almost instant relief by putting on a Johnson's Red Cross Kidney Plaster. It warms, soothes and supports the weak back, and gently massages the tissues with every movement of the body, thus elping to restore proper circulation and normal strength. Johnson's Red Cross Kidney Plaster brings amazingly quick results because the medication penetrates straight through the skin to the affected parts—pain goes, soreness leaves, power returns, almost immediately. And you get lasting relief, too, for the medication is continually absorbed as long as the plaster remains on the body. Try a Red Cross Kidney Plaster tonight and prove how quickly it drives away the misery of a weak back.
Just go to any drug store and ask for Johnson's, the big Red Cross Kidney Plaster with the red flannel back.
Royal Circle of Friends
Mrs. S. R. Saunders, Supervisor and National Organizer of the Royal Circle of Friends of the World, is responsible for this organization being established in the District of Columbia.
The Temple of the Royal Circle is located at 51st Street and Michigan Avenue, Chicago, Ill., with a membership of 150,000 and assets of $800,000. Dr. R. A.

The M. W. D. Norman Memorial Circle, which was gathered by Mrs. Julia C. Galloway, one of the leading members of the Metropolitan Baptist Church and the leader of Liberia Tent, with a membership of 500 members, assisted by Mrs. Kate Thompson, gathered this circle. Mrs. Saunders in organizing this circle with 52 members and 15 pending applications, was assisted by the following friends of Acme Circle. No. 4037, Acting Vice-President, Eva Robb, Governess B. B. King, Commander Henry Saunders, chaplain Hattie Jackson.
This circle bids fair to be the largest in the District. It is officered by the following: Miss Gladys Galloway, Past President; Mrs. Julia C. Galloway, President; Mrs. Kate Thompson, Vice-President; Mrs. Willie Osborne, Governance; Miss Amanda J. Hamilton, Secretary; Miss Fannie Ellis, Assistant Secretary; Miss Annie White, Treasurer; Mr. J. Miner, Commander; Rev. James, Chapain; Mr. G. G.

Blinding Pain
"I was very weak and thin and used to suffer with very severe headaches," says Miss *Annie Mae Brown*, (12121 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."

The Modern Thanksgiving Dinner Depends on GAS
THE tradition of Thanksgiving is as old as America herself, with an origin as humble
The Thanksgiving dinner of today is cooked with gas, automatically, and Mother can spend the cooking time enjoying the reunion of the family, instead of bending over a hot fire. The Thanksgiving dinner of today is served in fine china dishes fired in a gas kiln, with gleaming silver tempered with gas heat, on snowy linen bleached and dried and woven with the aid of gas fuel, on a polished mahogany table manufactured with gas fired machinery.
And so as we sit down to dinner on this 306th Thanksgiving, it is fitting that the little blue flame contributing its services so loyally to the progress of the nation should also be accorded a tribute from all of us who live in the light of its service.

cal building has been completed. The new building site occupies an entire city block.
The accompanying photographic illustration gives a general view of the chief external features of the building which is a three-story structure. The foundation, floors and portions of the roof are of re-inforced concrete. The walls are of red brick with trimmings of Indiana limestone. The three floors of this structure have added a total of 70,230 square feet of lecture room and laboratory space to the facilities of the Medical College, which area is now distributed and equipped as follows:
The Sub-Basement
Heat, light and power are taken from the central power plant at Freedmen's Hospital. The subbasement contains special ventilating, temperature control and heating apparatus. Here a total of 14,000 cubic feet of air per minute is screened, filtered, humidified, heated and distributed throughout the practical anatomy section of the building. Here also, foul air totaling 18,000 cubic feet per minute can be exhausted from the dissecting laboratory, ani-

mal operation room, animal room, morgue, embalming room, and auditorium.
The Ground Floor
The entire south wing of the ground floor is occupied by facilities for practical anatomy consisting of an animal room, morgue, embalming room, skeleton room, the main dissecting laboratory, and the staff and research laboratory. This entire area has a gray ceramic tile floor and base, hard flat white walls and every facility for perfect sanitation. The animal room is located so as to be easy of access to the elevator, to the animal run on the southeast roof and to the animal operation room in the central wing. This room is equipped with cages and all modern facilities for the indoor observation of animals. This area is connected to the ventilating system, thus affording constant changes of its air.
The morgue contains facilities for the handling and storage of fifty cadavers and a nine-body, electrically refrigerated morgue freezer for the temporary storage of cadavers and for freezing the same preparatory to sectioning. Storage of the cadavers is accomplished by four sunken reinforced concrete tanks each 17 feet by 2 feet by 7 feet inside dimensions.
Concrete Tanks
Each tank is divided into two eight-foot compartments. Each of the compartments has a hinged parafined-wood moisture-proof cover, with movable wooden cross bars to each of which a cadaver may be attached. Over each tank there is a track and trolley with a pulley designed to enable one person to transport cadavers to and from the tanks.
The morgue refrigerator is located between the morgue and the embalming room with one face in each room. All nine compartments are equipped with double slide stretchetype trays and will open into both rooms.
The embalming room is equipped with embalming tables containing drains and electric outlets. This room also has a built-in gas cremator furnace, large sink unit, instrument cases, and filing cases for records.
The skeleton room for the storage of dissections and bones, contains cases and drawers, some large enough for the storage of a skeleton, with facilities for records of age, cause of death, race and sex. The skeleton room contains also a large electrically driven band saw for the sectioning of frozen cadavers.
The Disssection Laboratory
The main dissection laboratory is equipped with 18 dissecting tables, each containing water, drain and elec-
tric outlets for goose-neck table lamps to be attached to the edge of the table by a thumb screw clamp. Each table contains two metal drawers for instruments and towels, and each table is specifically lighted by two nitrogen lamps with x-ray shades directly over the table, just seven and one-half feet from the floor.
This laboratory has its floor spotted with mushroom ventilators of sufficient exhaust capacity to remove all odors at the source of their origin and it is possible to effect a total change of the air in this area once during every eight minutes.
The central portion of the ground floor is occupied on the east side by the museum preparation room, the radiographic department and the balance and storeroom for the physiological chemistry laboratory. The museum preparation room is equipped for the preparation of specimens and is connected by stairs to the museum on the floor above.
Radiographic Department
The radiographic department is completely equipped with x-ray and stereoscopic apparatus. This department consists of a dark room for screen work and the examination of the living body, and a light room adjoining it. where facilities are provided for the study of x-ray negatives both by direct and stereoscopic methods. These rooms have been located close to the main dissecting laboratory so that students working in the latter can from time to time correct and supplement the ideas acquired from their studies of the dead bodies by examining the living subject by the x-rays and by examining radiograms in the light room.
The east side of the central portion of the ground floor is occupied by the animal operation room, its staff and research laboratory; by the general store room for the building and the general file room for the records of the college. The animal operation room is fully equipped and will be easy of access both to the animal room and the elevator and stair service leading to the open air animal run on the southeast roof.
Chemistry Laboratory
The physiological chemistry laboratory, class or lecture room, and research laboratory occupy the northwest wing of the ground floor. This laboratory group is of the plan followed in all laboratories on the first and second supported floors, that is, there is a large students' laboratory, 54 feet by 35 feet, with full laboratory equipment for sixty students; a class or lecture room which it is possible to throw into one room with the large laboratory by the opening of disappearing sash, or to completely

darken for stereopticon views; a research laboratory for the use of the staff and advanced students; an office for the professor in charge, complete sanitary facilities and provisions for separate stair service. The northwest portion of the front wing of the ground floor contains smoking and locker rooms for men; lounge and locker rooms for women; storage rooms and mechanical equipment facilities.
Administrative Section and the Auditorium
The central portion of the first floor, south of the rotunda is occupied by the offices of the dean, the faculty room, reception room, the students' library and the museum. The separate units of this section of the building are located so the administrative offices, library and museum are isolated from the general routes of student circulation through the building, they are nevertheless easy of access to both the north and south wings of the building. The auditorium, which is located on the second floor, has a seating capacity of 500 and is adapted both to general lecture purposes and instruction by moving pictures.
First and Second Floor Laboratories
In planning the building particular care was exercised to group both horizontally and vertically the laboratories and lecture room facilities for closely related subjects. The entire three floors of the south wing of the building are occupied by practical anatomy and its related subjects, that is, practical anatomy on the ground floor; topographic and gross anatomy on the first floor, and histology and embryology on the second floor, and the animal run on the roof. Following the same requirement for grouping related subjects, the northwest wing contains physiological chemistry on the ground floor; pharmacology on the first floor and physiology on the second floor; while the northeast wing contains laboratories for bacteriology on the first floor and pathology on the second floor.
All of these students' laboratories rooms contain laboratory table facilities research laboratories and lecture sites specially adapted to the work of the laboratory, and equipped in all cases with water, drainage, electricity, gas, air, and vacuum, as specifically required. Four distinct stair towers on opposite sides of the interior courts make it possible either to reach any laboratory direct from the exterior of the building without going through any other laboratory or to use any one portion of the structure while the remainder of the building is locked.

The Talk of Town Su
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27
Topic: Isaiah Teaches True Worship.
Scripture Basis: Isa. 1:10-20.
Golden Text: "Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord, or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart." Psalm 24:3,4.
Thought of the Lesson
Our lesson is opened with fearful words of Jehovah given through the lips of Isaiah, the most eloquent and versatile of all the prophets. These words contain charges of Israel's insincerity of worship and point out God's displeasure with the same.
Israel had become grievously materialistic in her religious as well as in her secular life. Her worship had descended to the dry bone of formalism. Her sacrifices had come to be more than secular barbacues during which exhaustive ceremonies were gone through with and tons of blood were poured out, but with no heartfelt interest shewn.
No expense of time nor of goods was spared in maintaining an elaborate system of worship, but the spirit and truth of true worship were absent from it all. Thus in this lesson we find Isaiah setting himself to the task of Judah's reformation with reference to her worship. He is here teaching in essence what Jesus later taught in words, viz., that "they that worship him (God) must worship him in spirit and in truth."

WASHINGTON CHURCHES
On September 5, 1857, Albert Boulden began public prayer meeting service at his residence, near Fourth and L streets, northwest. The Christians of the congregation, wishing to be organized into a permanent body, made known their desire to their leader and it was approved. The Ecclesiastical Council met on June 20, 1858, for the purpose of organizing a church, which was called the Third Baptist Church of Washington, D. C. The council, satisfied with the proceedings, declared the Third Baptist Church organized.
The congregation met at different places until 1863, when the members procured a lot at the corner of Fourth and L streets, northwest, and began to erect a building. The cornerstone was laid June 6, 1863, when Rev. Dr. Reed conducted the exercises. The church was controlled by Boulden until 1867, when disturbances arose between him and the church. In consequence of this, it became necessary for the church to meet on H street, between Sixth and Seventh streets, northwest.
After a short while, the meetings were held on Ninth street, between P and Q streets, northwest. At this time, the church was under the leadership of Rev. William B. Jefferson, who had just been ordained. While contending in law about their property at the corner of Fourth and L streets, the church purchased a lot on Franklin street, between Fourth and Fifth streets. On December 5, 1869, the cornerstone of the church on Franklin street was laid.
On the fourth Sunday in September, 1871, the church was dedicated. Here they remained for more than twenty years. On August 2, 1884, the first payment was made on the lot at Fifth and Q streets, northwest. On March 19, 1886, Rev. James H. Lee, of New Bedford, Mass., formerly of Washington, and member and clerk of the church, was asked to accept the pastorate, which he did.
Rev. Lee served the church until 1916. He was succeeded by Rev. Charles Cushenberry, who served for two years, and then the present pastor, Rev. G. O. Bullock, was called. Rev. Bullock has been serving the church ever since that time.
Under Rev. Bullock's leadership, the church membership has increased four-fold, the Sunday school and Christian Endeavor have more than doubled in attendance and finance. The church and auxiliaries raised in nine years under Rev. Bullock, $130,000. The church has contributed to education and missions. The church debt has been canceled, and at one time, each member who had spent fifty years of service in Third Baptist Church was presented $10 in gold.

THE HEAVENLY ANTHEM
By Rev. J. L. S. Holloman
"And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and crying, Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace and good will toward men." Luke 2:13,14.
We have come to think of the nations of the earth as possessing personalities like individuals. The geographical positions, the circumstances attending their origin and subsequent history and the ideals that feed their faith and inspiration are the causes that produce the marked differences between the nations of the earth. Sooner or later poets of these respective nations will so imbibe the atmosphere and spirit of these foregoing causes and having translated these thoughts and emotions into poems that make a universal appeal to the hearts of the nations when set to music become national anthems. They are instruments used to create in the heart of the individual a deeper sense of appreciation and obligation to his nation and to rally him to the defense of the nation both in time of war or peace.
The poet is God's best workman. He possesses the supreme gift. Poetry is superior to prose. Song is the highest form of expression. Prose may be thoughts walking, but song puts words on wings. That which cannot be done by the statesman, soldier or scholar is easily accomplished by the poet and singer. You will recall that Burns once said, "Let me write my nation's songs I care not who makes its laws."
There is, however, something that is grossly imperfect about every nation either in its ideals or in its conduct, and often in both. This imperfection is easily discernible in their respective anthems. Since the earliest formation of kindreds, tribes and nations on the earth; greed, selfishness, hatred, and war have characterized their history. "As a hunter traces a wild beast to his lair by the drops of blood on the ground, so we follow man faint, weary and staggering with wounds through the black forest of the past." Often his national anthems have idolized and glorified this carnage of blood. There is no national anthem that expresses the hopes or interprets the feelings of all the peoples.
While man has been producing a ghostly, tragedy on the earth, God has been signaling from the mountain tops, moving in the hearts and consciences of men, walking with seers and singers and revealing Himself in every possible way that man might understand that God has a better way, and that God is carrying on in the world a mission of redemption and recovery. Here we find in our text that as the angels were announcing the birth of our Lord Jesus to the shepherds of Bethlehem they would not neglect this opportunity to sing the heavenly anthem. How beautiful this anthem is. The words are so refreshing to a sin-sick and a war-torn world. They arouse no hatreds, they inspire no selfishness, and they consent to no human exploitation. They interpret the
northwest, next Sunday at 10:45 a.m. The Rev. R. L. Briscoe of Knoxville, Tenn., a Zion churchman and pastor of Warner Tabernacle A. M. E. Zion Church of that city, will deliver a message at the evening service at 7:45 o'clock. Sunday school meets at 9:30 a.m., V. C. E. Society at 6:30 p.m.
NEW BETHEL BAPTIST
CHURCH
Special services will be held at New Bethel Baptist Church, Ninth and S streets, northwest, Sunday, November 27. Dr. William D. Jarvis will preach the morning and evening services.

motive and express the aim of a mighty God.
The angels seem to be saying to the shepherds, "We bring you good news today. We come to announce a new king and a new kingdom. The old kings; Augustus and Herod must pass with their kingdom of blood, hooded and death and give place to the new King Emmanuel, and to His new kingdom of justice, love, righteousness and all abounding, everlasting life."
The heavenly anthem, "Glory to be given to Him by men on earth peace and good will toward men expresses a heavenly state and an earthly aim. The loyalty, love and reverence that are unstintingly given to Jehovah in heaven are to be given to Hm by men on earth. The perfect social order existing among angels and the redeemed in heaven is to be achieved by men through Christ on earth. Jehovah is to be loved and reverenced above every creature and thing, and there is to be peace on earth and good will toward men.
It is heaven's aim that war and conflict shall pass and that peace and good-will shall come. Mark you, it is not to be an armed peace, not a peace by force, not a legislated peace, but peace as the logical sequence of love and good will. Surely this ideal state on earth as in heaven is at once sufficiently alluring to inspire every mortal to sing again with the angel the heavenly anthem and dedicate his life anew to the realization of its aim.
Today as we are in the midst of this happy Thanksgiving time and as we look on to the approach of the happy Christmas season, may we pledge ourselves anew as citizens of the new universal commonwealth and follow Him who wend without the camp bearing the cross of our reproach.
The old kingdoms of force and hate must pass and cease to be. The old national anthems of selfishness must cease to inspire, but the heavenly anthem will never grow old but will forever inspire and the kingdom of Christ wherein dwelleth righteousness and peace shall endure forever and ever.
M. E. Church will preach a special sermon. He will be accompanied by his choir and members. The C. E. Society will render a special program at 6:30 p.m.
A Union Thanksgiving Vesper was given under the auspices of the Sunday Schools of the C.M.E. churches in the District of Columbia, last Sunday at Miles Memorial Church. The program included songs, prayers, and short talks. Each school had a part on the program. Lawyer Banks, of St. John Schol, gave a talk on "The things for which we fail to give thanks."
Other speakers were Mrs. Toomer, of Israel School, and B. J. Carroll, superintendent of Miles School, and sponsor of the occasion.
Armstrong Gridders Defeat Dunbar to Win High School Title
Sam's
Scripts
Geel but some strange things are happening on the Hill this year.
On Saturday, November 5, the Wilberforce football team walked off the field and forfeited the game between Wilberforce and Howard to the Bisons. The Blue and White authorities refused to pay the visiting team its $1500 guarantee, but no money was refunded the cash customers.
It doesn't look so nice to me. Howard served as go-between, with Wilberforce the competitor, and the cash customer, the spectator, who paid to see the competition. The local school failed to fulfill her obligation. Surely she had no right to "hog" the proceeds. Truly Wilberforce should have been denied her guarantee, but the cash customer should have been given a better break. Football is played strictly on an amateur basis—on the Hill.
"Windy" Wallace who played the pivot position on the Armstrong championship football team this season, is without doubt a very capable performer. His bullet-like spiral passes attracted the attention of a number of spectators as well as several sports writers.
Each time a play was started from center, the Armstrong back who received the pigskin was given plenty of time for his start. This can be attributed to the speed which Wallace shot his passes back.
That a present day football coach should send his team on a gridiron with the hopes that it can win a contest with an equally strong, if not stronger opponent, by playing straight football, is indeed unreasonable. The Dunbar mentor made that attempt last Monday and his team's championship aspirations were completely shattered.
That Monumental Elk team is a gosh darned good combination of basket tossers. When the writer saw them in action last Friday, Scrapy Brown and Co. surely resembled a world beater.
TUSKEGEE FACES DANGER
OUS FOE
A new football champion may be crowned at Spillers' Field on December 2 when Tuskegee (last year's national colored champions) clash with Atlanta University in their annual gridiron battle. The Crimson Hurricane is being conceded an even chance to hand Tuskegee her first defeat since 1923. This opinion is based on the great showing "Chief" Aikens' team has made this season. The 6-0 defeat of Howard University in Washington on November 12, was a great victory for the Atlanta University team.
Coach Aiken has developed an excellent football machine out on the hill top. It is well coached in basic principles of the game and has an advanced attack. There is plenty of power in the offence and the players know enough defensive football to adjust themselves to any style of attack.
A feature of the entertainment not to be overlooked is the parade of the crack Tuskegee Band of 72 pieces, under the direction of Captain Frank L. Drye, which will march through the principal streets of the city and execute intricate movements just before the start of the game and between the halves. The Crimson Pipers from Tuskegee made a "hit" at the Tuskegee Lincoln football game in Philadelphia, in which Tuskegee defeated the Lincoln Lions 30 to 0, for their smart appearance, for the surprising precision with which they drill and for the extraordinary good music played.
"TICK" SAVES-HIS
"Rap" Wheatley, stellar Morgan College end, missed, by a few inches last Saturday a chance to become the proud possessor of a couple of tickets to the game in Philadelphia, on Turkey Day.
Out on the sidelines during a Morgan time-out, the writer heard a bit of conversation which was amusing. Someone in the Bison group must have been kidding "Tick" Smith, for the famous Blue and White halfback was heard to emit the following declaration: "If I don't gain this time, I'll give the man who stops me 2 tickets for the Lincoln game."
On the next play Smith skirted Wheatley's flank for 9 yards. During the play the Bear wingman barely missed tackling the Bison back, his finger tips scraping Smith's knees.
A few inches and Rap would have been Tick's guest.
THE SPORT REVIEW
BISONS TAKE MORGAN TEAM INTO CAMP
BISONS TAKE MORGAN TEAM INTO CAMP
The Howard University "Bisons" conquered the light weight and confident Morgan "Bears" of Morgan College, Baltimore, Md., in the Howard Stadium, Saturday, by a score of 26 to 6.
The game opened with Howard kicking to Morgan. Howard held Morgan for downs, and immediately began an offense that gained a series of first downs, and with wonderful line plunges by Ross, Ewell and Smith, the ball went over for the first touchdown. "Tck" Smith in the second period, by clever broken field running from the 15-yard line, carried the ball over for the second touchdown. At the end of the first half the score stood: Howard 12; Morgan 0.
In the third quarter Morgan came back with plenty of fight and a series of trick plays that temporarily baffled Howard, and toward the close of this period a long pass from Clark to Phil Williams resulted in Morgan's touchdown. This ended Morgan's scoring, for Howard then began a dash and a drive that Morgan could not stop. Line breaking by Brown, Ross and Ewell, with several beautifully executed passes, accounted for two additional touchdowns, Dan Brown and "Tick" Smith carrying the ball over for the respective touchdowns.
The outstanding stars of the game were: Ewell, Ross, "Tick" Smith, Hawkins and Tyson for Howard, while "Pinkie" Clark, Phil Williams and Thomas played well for Morgan.

LAWRENCEVILLE, Va.—St. Paul came into her own and won, by a score of 20-0, the "All Stains" football struggle with St. Augustine here last Saturday before a large turn-out. The game was marred by frequent fumbles and roughness. St. Paul was penalized on a number of occasions. These penalties included infractions of the off-side rule as well as for illegal use of hands. All scoring took place in the second and third quarters.

ROAMER ELEVEN DOWNS BUFFALOES AGAIN
ROAMER ELEVEN DOWNS BUFFALOES AGAIN
PLAY ANNAPOLIS SUNDAY
The hard-hiting Roamer football team of Alexandria, Va., easily won over the Buffalo A. C. eleven on last Sunday at Ivy City, by the score of 25-0. The game was well contested but the speed of the Virginia backs and the air-tight playing of the entire line, held the Washington lads to only two first downs. The playing of Oscar Taylor, new Roamer fullback, and Ollie Hawkins was outstanding. Costello and Williams performed best for the losers.
On Sunday, November 27, Captain George Brooks will carry a much crippled team to Annapolis, Md., to play the strong Capital City Athletic Club of that city. He intends to rely on the speed of the young backfield combination of his team to bring the fifth victory for the season to his town.

In the little South Georgia town of Camilla, on August 5, 1895, this colored lad—who later was to gain the respect of every man, woman and child of America who can either see, read or hear—first saw the light of day. While still a boy, Theodore, as he was known, moved with his parents to Brunswick, Ga., where he worked as a stevedore until 1918, at which time Walk Miller, who up to the time of the Deacon's death has been his fight manager and constant companion, detected an ability in the Tiger, to box.
He became a boxer and a great boxer; but in becoming a great boxer he did not forget the natural instinct which, to my mind, elevated him to the pedestal where his memory stands head and shoulders above athletic figures, white and colored, dead and living, of the recent years. That instinct was untainted sportsmanship.
Never prone to take advantage of a weaker opponent, Flowers, on numerous occasions allowed "his man" to finish rather than land the single punch which separated him from victory by a knockout. Whether victor or vanquished, the Georgia Deacon never let pass the opportunity to congratulate or condole his opponent.
In all his hundreds of bouts, Flowers never accepted a verdict on a foul unless the foul so disabled him that he was unable to continue or unless his manager, Walk Miller, insisted. The Tiger's contention was that a decision based on an alleged foul robbed the fans. This stand, as well as his willingness at all times to force the fight so that there would be plenty of action, shows that he was anxious to give the fight lovers a break for their money.
In perusing the dailies, I see that Ramon Runyan, one of the country's leading sports writers (and a white man) pays the Georgia Deacon a beautiful and lengthy tribute. Runyan says in part:
"Flowers was one of my favorite figures in fistinia.
"I note that some of his contemporaries, in their encomiums, say he was a credit to his race. I say he was a credit to any race.
"He was a gentleman, soft spoken, mild mannered, and punctilious. He was deeply religious. He prayed in his dressing room before battle, and issued forth with the soul of a real warrior. He was a dead game fellow inside those ropes, but his nature and habits of living did not change in victory or defeat."
Runyan is right. No better testimony can be given than the assemblage of 12,000 persons, including representatives of every race, creed, color and station, which gathered to pay final tribute to the late ex-middleweight champion—the model man. Runyan is right. Flowers was never ostentatious. He gained a number of friends through his modest disposition and retiring attitude which stayed with him in his rise to pugilistic heights. He learned early the secret of life—humility—and all the victories and accompanying glory could not take this from him.
Jimmy Burns of the Atlanta Dispatch, says:
"Atlanta will be a long time forgetting Flowers and an even longer time producing a scrapper to equal him. He was a great fighter and a good Negro and here in the sunny South no greater tribute can be paid."
All I can say is—Burns is right.
The colored race has given to the fighters. Not all of them have been but even at that, in proportion to the regard most favorably with white fighters.

DUNBAR ELEVEN WHITEWASHED B. ORANGE AND BLUE RIVALS
Dunbar High School's grid championship aspirations were literally shot to pieces when Coach Edgar P. Westmoreland's Armstrong football team completely outclassed the wearers of the Red and Black and walked off with a 20-0 victory Monday afternoon. The game, which was played at the Howard University Stadium before a crowd of some 2800 persons who turned out in spite of the drizzling rain which fell the greater part of the afternoon, was all Armstrong's from the opening kick-off to the final gun. Displaying a varied running attack and aerial game, the Orange and Blue team was never in danger. A double fake and delayed buck paired with a running lateral pass kept the Poets bewildered from start to finish. At no time were the Dunbar lads inside of their opponents' 35-yd line.
Tech started early. A Dunbar fumble in the first quarter was recovered by Campbell, Orange and Blue halfback, and then Thorne, whose play throughout the contest stood out, carried the oval over on the next play. A 15-yard forward pass, Thorne to Johnson gave Armstrong her second touchdown soon after play had begun for the second quarter. Johnson after receiving the pass

ran 18 yards to scre. Dabney hit the line for the extra point.
"Runt" White, formerly a student at Dunbar and a much neglected scrub last year, played a big part in the undergoing of the Red and Black outfit. After the teams had lined up following the second touchdown, White grabbed the kick-off which had rolled behind his own goal line and ran the ball 47 yards to the middle of the field. On numerous other occasions the Tech quarterback peeled off good yardage.
The third touchdown was a result of a neat run of 13. yards around his left end by Beason. Dabney again plunged through the much battered Dunbar forward wall.
Thorne, Dabney, Beason, White, Wallace and Johnson were the outstanding players for the Tech machine while T. Jackson and Beckwith performed best for the losers. The work of Sewell, no doubt suffered a serious setback due to the fact that this lad, an exceptional ball carrier was played at guard.

NEW BALTO. ELKS WIN OPENING TILT
BALTIMORE, Md.-The Monumental Lodge Elks, with 3 Washington boys in the starring roles, completely outclassed a green Viaca A. C. team from Steelton, Pa., here last Friday, by the score of 51-8.
The Viaca quint representing the Elks of Steelton presented a line-up consisting of players who lack experience. The visitors scored exactly 4 points in each of the two halves.
Slim Thomas, Soup Turner and Dennis Simpson wore the flashy new purple and white uniform of the Monumental Big 5 as it made its initial appearance for the approval of Baltimore fans. The latter was a member of the Athenians last year and is a familiar sight to the basketball populace. Thomas and Turner, however, made their debut as Orioles last Friday and both were accorded a hearty reception. They immediately gained favor. There is not much that can be said about the game except perhaps that it was poorly officiated. The local quint looked like a "world beater."
PRAIRIE VIEW DEFEATS
SAMUEL HOUSTON
PRAIRIE VIEW, Tex., Nov. 18. Featuring a brilliant and daring display of forward passes, powerful line plunges and fast end runs, the plucky Prairie View Panthers plunged into and completely put to rout the Samuel Huston Dragons, conference champions for 1926, and picked by several noted football critics, including the gridiron expert, F. A. Young, of the Chicago Defender, as the Texas equal of the invincible Langston eleven and Coach Abbott's new famous Tuskegee Tieers.
The game belonged to the big state school boys from the time of the initial kick-off to the final shot. At no time was their goal in danger of being crossed by the Austinites. The much heralded aerial attack of Owens, Alexander and Lyons went to nought in the face of the wide-awake and alert Panthers. It was plainly Panther day and in Pantherland. The gang was all there and they played the game that one is accustomed to read about rather than to see. The score was 9-0.

CHARLES FREEMAN HEADS
EILLDALE BASEBALL CLUB
A recent change in the officials of the Hilldale Baseball and Exhibition Company has elevated Charlie Freeman from vice-president to the head of the corporation. The new leader has virtually grown up with the Darby organization. Joining the club in 1913 he guarded the hot corner in the simon pure amateur days of the Daisies. Since that time he has been continually connected with the company and closely identified with its working force. Because of ill health of Bolden, who held the leadership of the company, almost since its inception in 1910, the directors considered it advisable to relieve him of the weighty duties accompanying the holding of the post. Freeman was elected at the annual meeting of the corporation.
PLAN TO STOP SCALPING
Members of the Howard University Board of Athletic Control, through their business manager Dr. E. J. Scott are in receipt of letters from H. F. Grim, chairman of the Lincoln University Athletic Council, which solicit the assistance of the Blue and White authorities in an attempt to apprehend those individuals who engage in the ticket speculating which takes place before every Thanksgiving Day football game. The letter points out that it is to greater advantage to nab the scalpers in the act than to attempt to detect them after the game has been played.

The Eastern League of Associated Basketball Clubs composed of representative teams of New York, Philadelphia, Asbury Park, Atlantic City, Baltimore and Washington, will officially open Thanksgiving night with Alcoes Washington), meeting St. "C" in New York, and the Vandals of Atlantic City visiting the Capitol Club in Asbury Park.
In establishing a circuit the association has taken the first step toward organizing colored amateur teams.
Stars who heretofore have adopted wild-cat tactics will find themselves forced into the league.
In some cities there were three or four teams and the habit of borrowing players for particular games became disgusting. The result was it became impossible for visiting teams to get a square deal.
The commissioner of the league have each club's players' list and each team member has a membership card. Recognized A. A. U. officials will referee games and no official will referee a game in which his home team is a contestant. Thus the visiting team is given a chance. Every team has something to fight for and that something is the "Amsterdam News Cup," a magnificent trophy two feet in height, exclusive of the pedestal. The cup becomes temporary property of the champions, and permanent property after three championships. The Savoy Club, Incorporated, sponsors a beautiful trophy also to go to the winner. The runner-up will receive a cup sponsored by the Herald-Commonwealth of Baltimore. There are altogether six trophies for the winner and runner-up.
ALCOES REPRESENT LOCAL
ELKS.
The Washington Elks, formerly the Alcoe A. C., has organized its basketball club for the coming season. J. Filey Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks of the World has sponsored the organization. The team will represent Mr. Wilson's own lodge, Columbia No. 85. The Elks have added a few new faces to the Alcoe outfit which will make it one of the strongest quints in the East. The team will open its season, December 8, at the Lincoln Colonnade here. Vantile C. Harris, secretary of the club, would like to hear from all Eastern and Western teams desiring games on the home and home basis. His address in 1905 Seventh street, northwest.
SHILOH TEAMS RE-ORGANIZE
The basketball teams at the Shiloh Baptist Church are being re-organized. The church Sunday school is sponsoring the movement
Harold Barkadale, superintendent of the Athletic Department is supervising the re-organization. James Fish, Henry Atkins, Harold Barke, Fzank Guy and Chester Anderson are among the veterans to have returned to the Blue and White. Mrs. Marvel Cunningham, and the Misses Victoria Rollins and Celestine Harris form a nucleus around which a strong Girls' Team is to be organized.
HOWARD MAY RE-ENTER THE C. I. A. A.
(Continued from page 1) football and a member of the Howard faculty, and the withdrawal of Howard from the C.I.A.A. were the changes approved.
Fraternal Influences
Fraternal influences and other distasteful occurrences during the term of Dr. W. E. Morrison, whom Watson succeeded, was the direct cause of the first change. The severing of relationship with the C.I.A.A. was approved because of a difference in the opinions as to the treatment of preparatory school students.
The entire situation in a nutshell was just this: Howard felt that students who played on a preparatory school team should be allowed to transfer to any institution at which they desired to take up college studies and not have the year of prep school athletics counted against them. The association thought differently. If a man took part in athletics at one of the schools and transferred to another, the C.I.A.A. authorities contended that one year should elapse before he should be allowed to participate as a member of the second school's varsity team in that particular sport.
Bob Miller, it seems was the cause of all the trouble. The big Bison tackle, who came to Howard in 1924 from Union, was the subject of the discussion and resultant break. The C.I.A.A. did not feel that Miller should be allowed to become a member of Howard's football squad in view of the fact that he had been a player on the prep school team at Union the year previous.
If the local institution does reenter the C.I.A.A. it will make little or no difference in so far as Miller is concerned. He finished his fourth year as a varsity player, yesterday and automatically becomes ineligible for future participation in the fall sport on the Hill.
A move whereby Howard will n-gain become a member of the C.I.A.A. is expected to be welcomed by the various alumni associations as well as the university student body. Much dissatisfaction has been expressed in regard to the situation surrounding football on the Hill.

"East Side, West Side," the greatest drama of New York life ever written will be shown at the Republic Theatre on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, November 27 28 and 29. George O'Brien and Virginia Valli play the leading roles in this William Fox picture "East Side, West Side" is the kind of a picture which has long been needed to give the world an authentic conception of New York, for lots of people have grown to think of it entirely in terms of night clubs, Broadway theatres and the tinsel gayety of Coney Island.

Now and then a picture is released which shows fairly accurately some one phase of the city, but never before has the vast panorama which extends from the Battery to the Bronx been unrolled on any screen. Some of the outstanding scenes in "East Side, West Side" are a youth's battle against tremendous odds to conquer New York; a mammoth ocean liner sent into oblivion after crashing a monster ice berg; the thrills of a championship prize fight; the love affairs of a boy who climbed from the Ghetto to the upper strata of society and many

Bebe Daniels in her latest Paramount picture, "Swim, Girl, Swim" will be shown on Wednesday and Thursday, November 30 and December 1. It is a story of the college campus in which Bebe wins the big race for her school. One of the outstanding features of the pictures is the appearance in the cast of Gertrude Ederle, the first woman to swim the English Channel.
"The Broncho Twister" with Tom Mix and his wonder horse, Tony, will be the attraction at the Republic on Friday and Saturday, December 2, and 3. "The Broncho Twister" is a colorful romance of daring and danger written especially for mix by Adela Rogers St. John. On Saturday, December 3 only, there will be three talent shows at 5:30, 7:30 and 9:30.
CRADDOCK AND CHADNEY AT
HOWARD NEXT WEEK
For one week only beginning Monday matinee, November 28, the Howard Theatre management presents to the Washington theatregoers two of the most popular colored dancers on the stage today. This is their first appearance in Washington and come direct to you from the Keith Circuit. These are the famous team of Craddock and Chadney, who are the stars of that new and novel production, "Dark Town Flirtations."
Craddock and Chadney, are however, not the only two stars in this production. Others are Doris Rheubottom, whose popularity with the theatre-goers has already been acclaimed during her recent appearance at the Lincoln Theatre, Grace Rector, the beautiful soubrette with the million dollar smile; Wallace and Derrel, the tango dancers par excellent; Montrose Brooks, the dark spot of the show; and last but not least the famous female impersonation of that great fun maker, Galli DeGaston.
In addition to this excellent cast there will be also seen a chorus of beauties with grace and charm who have won the applause of all audiences for whom they have appeared.
For Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, the screen attraction will be "College" starring that frozenface comedian, Buster Keaton. This production offers Buster Keaton in an entirely new setting and presents one of the clearest, conglomerations of gags and gig-

gles in which this comedian has yet appeared. It is just one round of baseball games, track meets, regattas, and fraternity celebrations with Buster Keaton as the bright alumnus of the small town high school who is not so big as fish in the larger collegiate pond, especially as the little lady of his heart insists that he demonstrate his athletic prowess.
On Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, the screen attraction will be "Lost at the Front," starring George Sidney and Charley Murray. This is an entirely new type of World War comedy and deals with the Russian German front. "Lost at the Front" is a hilarious comedy of every kind from slap stick to comedy drama throughout all of its rapid sequences. The path of these two master fun leaders leads from one grand mix-up to another, from one thrilling love affair to another and when they lose their way in No Man's Land, where shells from both armies went streaming past their heads they are positive that they are in a war that isn't everything the recruiting sergeant said it was.
On Friday the regular midnight ramble will be held at which time the managements assures its patrons of two and one half hours of entertainment. Reserved seat tickets for the ramble go on sale at the box office of the theatre on Saturday of the week before the show.
NORMA TALMADGE IN "CAM
ILLE" AT LINCOLN NEXT
WEEK
The screen attration for five days beginning Sunday, November 27, up to and including Thursday, December 1, will be "Camille" starring the beautiful Norma Talmadge. Norma Talmadge in the title role of her unique modern version of "Camille" the famous romance of Alexandre Dumas, the younger, is the treat in store for the patrons of the Lincoln Theatre. The story of the screen "Camille" while following closely the theme and spirit of the classical romance, is visualized in a setting of present day. The Lady of the Camellias, most celebrated of all the Parisian demo-mondainnes, is interpreted by Miss Talmadge as a captivating, brilliantly gowned bobbed haired heartbreaker of the present generation.
Gilbert Roland, a young Spanish actor, appears as "Armand," the impetuous young lover of "Camille." Lilyan Tashmance and Rose Dione have important roles as "Olympe" and "Prudence," respectively. Portraying the various wealthy and titled admirers of the "Lady of the Camellias," Harvey Clark is cast as "The Ba-

"Camille" is a super-special picture but the Lincoln Theatre management will not advance its prices during its run at the Lincoln Theatre. On Friday and Saturday, December 2, and 3, will be seen Gary Cooper and his famous, Horse, Flash, in his latest starring vehicle, "The Last Outlaw." This is a rip-roaring, hard riding, breath-taking, melodrama of the outdoor—of the West that is flavored with romance and spiced with comedy. It is said by critics to be one of the best western stories that has been screened in a long time.
on the stage for the entire week will be Wooding Quartet with their repertoire of popular songs. [This famous quartet is composed of J. B. Lomack, William Hall, Vernon Porter and Thomas Heatham. On Saturday only will be shown the last chapter of the universal serial, "Blake of Scotland Yard," featuring Hayden Stevenson. There will also be three big talent shows at 5.7:15 and 9:15.
"BEN HUR," WORLD'S MIGHT
EST ATTRACTION COMING
TO LINCOLN THEATRE
Metro-Goldwyn Mayer in arrangement with A. L. Erlanger Charles Dillingham and F. Ziegfield, Jr. offers the world's mightiest attraction at the Lincoln Theatre for one week only beginning Sunday, December 4, the celebrated picture version of "Ben Hur," to which all of New York has crowed for many months and which equally delighted Chicago, Boston, and Philadelphia in as many record breaking runs. This wonderful picturization cost $4,000,000, three years time, and the labors of 150,000 persons in Italy and California.
It culminated in the construction of the gigantic Circus Maxmus and race-course of Antioch and in the filming thereon of the thrilling chariot race. Instead of eight horses and the old time mechanical illusion of the stage show, the new and greater "Ben Hur" shows twelve teams of four horses. The details of General Wallace's famous "Tale of the Christ" have been reverently followed. Not only that, the picture heightens the powerful melodramatic and love interest of the play, centering the four romantic characters of Ben Hur, Messala, Esther and Iras, enacted by Ramon Novarro and Francis X. Bushman, May McAvoy and Carmel Myers.

"The Royal Flush Revue," which name, by the way, refers to nothing in particular about the show, is playing the Howard Theatre this week. It is a much better show than the name led me to expect. I and a number of other people at the Howard, Monday night, really enjoyed the performance. There were not, however, as many people there as there seemingly should have been to witness a show of this calibre. Perhaps, others too were misled by the name. Just somehow or other, the name doesn't particularly appeal to me. But the show certainly does.
Mae Brown, (the pretty little devil) is the leading lady, and she is some kid! Beauty, form, and ability mark her as an ideal lead. And "Hotstuff," whose name is Garland Howard, is one of the most entertaining men on the stage that I've seen in a long while. He puts over his acts in a way sanctioned in "big time" acts.
The cast includes Sterling Grant, Martha Copeland, Campbell and Farrel, and Kent and Bernice. And each one and each team is a star. The comedians, whose work is very good, are Billy Mitchell, Roscoe Montella, and Skeeter Winston.
The chorus, not the prettiest that has been to the Howard, but as vivacious and peppy as any other, if not more so, received the applause of the audience on several occasions for their dancing. It is without a doubt, one of the fastest choruses that has ever appeared here.
The costumes and scenery of the show adds much to what I consider a good production.

Chappelle and Stinnette, the Victor Recording Artists, are chirping and warbling for the benefit of the Lincoln Theatre goers this week. They are indeed good. Their singing carries one into the realms of ecstacy, and makes one almost forget that he really came to the show to see the picture.

"Porgy," a play by Dubose Heyward, a white playwrite, depicting the life of Negroes in the South, which had its premiere early in October on Broadway, has been highly complimented both for its theme and for the actors who portray the roles, by several southern papers.
The Charlotte Observer, Charlotte, S.C., reprinted a column from the Birmingham News, in which "Porgy" and its actors were most highly praised. And in the reprint of the article, the word Negro was carried throughout with a capital "N," unusual in a southern paper. The article began as a letter, reading:
"Dear Vagabond: Your article on the book, 'Porgy' (hard G if you please), sent me to the Guild Theatre the other afternoon to see the dramatization of it, and to my desk now to write you my impressions. But it's hard for a Southerner to criticise a Negro play. If you don't praise the actors, you are considered prejudiced, and if you do praise them, you are apt to be accused of being a victim of Yankee propaganda." The writer, however, goes on with terms of praise seldom accorded any group of actors. He concludes with the paragraph:
"I feel as if I can't say enough about the acting of Porgy, Bess, and Serena. They were the most difficult roles. Someone has said that the Negro is an artist at living-Perhaps that is why they make such good actors. I suppose some people will attribute much of the talent displayed in this presentation of "Porgy" to the white blood in the actors. I don't know about the intelligence they brought to it that's a dangerous and debatable subject. But I am sure that to their Negro blood should go the credit for the emotional side of their portrayal. And Vagabond dear, isn't acting most emotional interpretation?"

CARL DITON who is now making a transcontinental tour.
transcontinental farewell tour 1927-28 in Jersey City, New Jersey, Monday, October 3, continuing to July 3, 1928. The tour includes every principal city and state in the union and many rural points also.
In his prospectus sent out occurs the following item: "This will be the first time in the history of the Negro race that a distinguished Negro musician will have been available to so many of the smaller communities. It is an indisputable fact that Negro communities are not financially able to meet the terms of leading race artists, etc." These two statements should commend the tour to every well thinking person who has the welfare of the race at heart artistically. Indeed and in fact too few race artists make themselves available to the smaller communities, and when they do the terms are too high. Mr. Diton's tour should awaken interest in the musical education of the rural youth and adult and the fact that he puts service above momentary gaint stamps the tour as one of educational value to the masses.
