BOLD BA Boy MISSING DUN IS FOUND; S HIGH BOY
BOY LOCATED IN VIRGINIA
Monryo McClam, a 14-year-old student at Dunbar High School, who was reported missing last week, has been located. Mrs. McClam, the boy's mother, received a letter from Joseph D. Reed of Zacatta, Va., Wednesday, and also a letter from her son.
Mr. Reed stated that he picked the boy up on the Washington-Richmond road. The boy told him that he was on his way to his mother who he stated lived in North Carolina. He further said that the people he lived with in Washington were mean to him.
Sympathizing with the boy, Mr. Reed offered him help. He carried the boy to his home and gave him work in his store. Young McClam gave Mr. Reed the address of the people who he claimed he lived with in Washington. Mr. Reed wrote the people, but the letter was returned.
After reading the article in last week's Tribune, Mr. Reed noted that the description fitted the boy at his home. He thereupon began to question him and finally he admitted that he was McClam. Mr. Reed immediately wrote the boy's mother and also made the boy write to her.
Mother Happy
Mrs. McClam was overjoyed when she received the letters and immediately wrote Mr. Reed to bring her son to Washington, when he returns to the city. Mr. Reed sells produce here at the Farmers' Market.
The boy told his mother that he was on his way to his uncle's home in North Carolina. He left his home here March 23. No word had been heard of him since. He was a student at Dunbar High School. He became dissatisfied when his mother, who is his sole support, could not get him a cadet uniform and other things he wanted in his school activities. His mother told him that she was doing all she could for him and suggested that he secure a job in the evenings so that he could help himself. The boy became dissatisfied and left his home.
Mrs. McClam thanked the Tribune for assisting her in finding her son.
COOLIDGE MAY ATTEND HAMPTON CHOIR CONCERT
Mrs. Coolidge, first lady of the land, according to Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, president of the National Training School for Girls, will be a patron for the concert presenting Nathaniel Dett's Hampytom choir at the First Congregational Church, April 17. President Coolidge has expressed the possibility of his attending.
This same student choir, which has attracted national attention, sang last year in the music auditorium of the Library of Congress.
It is expected that the students, under Dr. Dett's direction, will present a program of the type that will throw new lights on the average music lover's conception of the musicianship expected of a student ceded in dispelling the idea that organization. The choir has suc-Negro student voices and interpretation are limited to American folk music.
The concert is given for the benefit of the Trades Hall Fund of the National Training School for Women and Girls, Inc., of this dity.

BAR STUDENT
HAW JUNIOR
NOW GONE
LEFT HOME APRIL 13
Another case where a youth is missing from his home and cannot be located has been reported. This is the second such case to be reported in the last seven days.
Luther Jackson, 13 years old, a student at Shaw Junior High School, has been missing since Tuesday, April 3, according to his mother, Mrs. Charlotte Taylor, of 2227 Tenth street, northwest.
Luther disappeared on the morning of last Tuesday week, and though he has been seen and heard from since, has not been found.
A cousin of the youth told Mrs. Jackson that he saw Luther at Eleventh and U streets, last Sunday afternoon, but did not know that he had run away from home.
A note written on a piece of scratch paper, and found April 10, stuck under the door by James E. Jackson, the boy's father, said in part: "Dear Mother and Father:— I know you are mad with me, but I am working and am all right. Don't worry about me, and don't look for me because you will never find me. I will come home soon."
Discagreed with Brother
Mrs. Jackson gave as the boy's reason for leaving home the report of a disagreement between Luther and a brother. She described the boy as light brown skinned, with gray eyes. She said that at the time of his disappearance he wore khaki pants, a gray sweater, and a gray cap.
The Woman's Bureau and police of all the local precincts have look-outs for the lad, but up until Thursday no report of his apprehension was forthcoming. Luther is one of eight children. He belongs to the First Baptist Church and attends Sunday School at Mt. Airy Church. The family moved last Thursday from 932 French street, northwest, from which house Luther disappeared. The note was placed under the door at the new address.
EASTER EGGS ROLL IN SPITE OF WEATHER
"Come, won't you let me take you to the Lion. House?" The writer turned that he might learn the identity of the person from whom the question came. She was an elderly lady, with snow white hair protruding from beneath the brim of a neatly arranged black hat. She addressed a little girl whose eyes were covered by two tiny fists in a manner of wiping the tears away. She repeated the question. This time the little tot, probably 6, perhaps 5, maybe 4, possibly 3 years of age answered, "No."
"No," repeated the kindly old lady, "why that is where all lost children are taken."
"I ain't los," declared the child. "Then where is your mother and father?" inquired the lady. "I don know," was the sobbed-out answer.
A puzzled look came over the face of the woman—not lost, yet in ignorance of the whereabouts of any guardians. Then—"Why are you crying?" she asked. "I ain't los," the little child declared, "I ain't los—I'm 'told'."
Very. Very Chilly
And so were the more than 40,000 others, young and old, who spent Easter Monday in the usual gay-rolling, candy-eating fashion a. the Zoo. In spite of a hateful old weather man—who gave 70 degree weather to the older folk for their Sunday celebration, and 40 degree shivers for the kiddies—thousands braved the cold and turned out to cover the broad expanses of "Flag-Pole Hill" with an Easter bonnet of vari-colored egg shells.
It was cold and no fooling about (Continued on page 4)

BABY BURNED PLAYING WITH MATCHES
Anna Westerfield, age 5, 152 W street, northwest, was painfully burned on the hands and about the body while playing with matches in her home, Sunday evening, April 8. She was treated at Freedmen's Hospital and later removed to her home, where her condition is much improved.
The application for a Writ of Review, filed by Attorney John H. Wilson, yesterday obtained a stay of execution of his client, Philip Jackson, sentenced to die for felonious assault on a white woman. Justice Frederick Siddons, granted postponement from April 17 to May 15.
W. CLARENCE MATTHEWS FAMOUS AS AN ATHLETE DIES AT CURTIS HOSPITAL
Although she supported him, her husband, Thomas G. Bramlette, 1633 Catherine street. Philadelphia, was unfaithful Mrs. Ruth E. Bramlette, 1530 Seventh street, northwest, charges in a suit for an absolute divorce which she filed thru Attorneys Houston and Houston in the District Supreme Court last Friday. Mrs. Bramlette owns and operates the Hawaiian Hair Grower business with headquarters in Washington. She has branch offices in Indianapolis, Baltimore, New York, Philadelphia and other cities.
In her bill of complaint, Mrs. Bramlette names Hattie Perkins. 413 Franklin street, northwest, as the co-respondent in the case. Since 19202 she charges, her husband has maintained secret and illicit relations with the co-respondent.
Husband Neglects Her
In 1920 when he became friendly with Hattie Perkins, Mrs. Bramlette says, her husband began to neglect and abuse her. He would remain out at night until one or two o'clock in the morning, she states, and after coming home and retiring he would get up about 3 o'clock and go out and remain away until 8 or 9 o'clock in the morning.
She opened a branch office at 2114 Pennsylvania avenue, Baltimore, Md., in April, 1927, and installed her husband as its manager, Mrs. Bramlette says. He told her, she states, that it would be necessary for him to remain continually in Baltimore in connection with the business. She believed him, she declares, and was under the impression that he stayed in Baltimore both night and day until she learned that he was coming to Washington at intervals to visit Hattie Perkins.
Affinity Pays Visit
On May 17, 1927, Mrs. Bramlette alleges, her husband had Hattie Perkins to visit him at the Baltimore branch office, where he also had his residence, and from 7 to 10 o'clock in the evening they were together in his bedroom and misconducted themselves.
Mrs. Bramlette declares that he ordered the clerk, Josephine Cooper, to prepare dinner for him and Hattie Perkins from foodstuff which she had supplied for his use. The couple were married in Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 25, 1907.
Mr. Bramlette deserted her June 8., 1927, Mrs. Bramlette says. While they lived together, she charges, she supported him.
She asks the court to award her an absolute divorce and alimony.
WORKMAN CAUGHT BETWEEN SAFE DOOR AND STAIR-CASE
Buster Morgan, 24, 1012 New Jersey avenue, northwest, an employee of the Merchant's Transfer and Storage Company, was painfully injured Tuesday, April 10, when he was caught between a safe door and staircase in the Jennifer building, 402 Seventh st., northwest, where he was engaged in moving furniture. He was taken to Freedmen's Hospital where he was found to be suffering from possible internal injuries of the chest, and shock. His condition is undetermined.

William C. Matthews, of Boston, died at the Curtis Private Surgical Sanitarium at 10:50 Monday night following an operation made necessary by a perforated gastric ulcer.
W. C. MATTHEWS, well known in national politics, died here last Monday.
He was stricken suddenly at the Whitewater Hotel last Saturday morning. Dr. Claude P. Carmichael attended him. On Sunday night Dr. A. M. Curtis and Dr. Arthur L. Curtis were called in for consultation. They advised that an operation would be the only chance to save his life.
Mr. Matthews was removed to the Curtis Private Surgical Sanitarium at midnight. His weakened condition would not permit an immediate operation. He rallied Monday morning. The doctors decided to take the one chance of saving his life. Doctors A. M. and Arthur L. Curtis and William G. Lofton operated on him. He died 12 hours later.
His body was removed to the undertaking establishment of Robert Grayson McGuire. Funeral arrangements are awaiting the arrival of his wife, who was in Berkeley, Cal.

COL.YOUNG'S WIDOW GETS INCREASED PENSION
COL.YOUNG'S WIDOW GETS INCREASED PENSION
Congressman Charles Brand of Ohio and Dr. Emmett J. Scott of Howard University appeared before the Pensions Committee of the House of Representatives, Tuesday, April 10, in behalf of a bill introduced by Mr. Brand for the purpose of increasing the pension received by Mrs. Charles Young, widow of the late Colonel Charles Young.
Practically the whole committee was present and Colonel Young's record was reviewed at full length. Congressman Brand presenting the details of Colonel Young's services as an officer in the United States Army and Dr. Scott stressed the disappointment which Colonel Young suffered because he was not permitted to serve over-seas during the World War and the resultant disappointment of the colored people.
The attitude of the whole committee was most cordial and at the conclusion of the hearing, it was voted by the committee to recommend that the pension be increased from $50 to $100 per month. Frank A. Byron has shown very great interest in this effort and was responsible for a complete compilation of Colonel Young's record from the time he entered West Point until his death and funeral here in Washington.

SEGREGATION OF G.O.P. DELEGATES SEEMS ASSURED
SEGREGATION OF G.O.P. DELEGATES SEEMS ASSURED
Plans for the segregation of colored delegates who will attend the Republican national convention in Kansas City in June are being carried out.
In a letter transmitting to members of the Republican national committee contracts for hotel accommodations for their delegations, Charles F. Curry, secretary of the local committee en housing arrangements, advised the national committeemen that the contracts he enclosed did not include arrangements for the accommodation of Negro delegates.
Mr. Curry told the national committeemen that if there are any Negroes in their delegations, they should forward their names to him so that he could turn them over to a committee of local colored persons that has charge of the housing of colored delegates.
He stated that "excellent accommodations" in a colored hotel and the colored Young Men's Christian Association would be provided for colored delegates. The housing of colored delegates in the Street Hotel, a small colored place, and the colored branch of the Y. M. C. A. has the approval of the committee on arrangements of the Republican national committee.
Protests against the segregation of colored delegates have been received by the Republican national committee.
Benjamin J. Davis, Republican national committee member of Georgia, has written Conrad Mann, chairman of the local committee, that he and the other colored delegates from his State, comprising eleven of Georgia's sixteen delegates, would expect accommodations equal in all respects to those of white delegates and that "booms with bath and telephone were wanted." A copy of this letter was forwarded to William M. Butler, chairman of the Republican national committee.
Mr. Mann replied to Mr. Davis that "We desire to accord Negro delegates and visitors the same courteous and considerate treatment which we always show our own Negro population." Colored Republicans regard this statement as "applesauce."
At previous conventions there has been no segregation. In seeking the convention, Mr. Mann promised Mr. Davis and Perry W. Howard, Republican national committeeman for Mississippi, when he solicited their votes for Kansas City that there would be no segregation and that they would be able to obtain any kind of hotel accom-

TO ESCAPE
While 400 persons jammed the sidelines of the Lincoln, Colonnade basketball court, Easter Monday afternoon, and a capacity crowd was in attendance at the holiday performance in the Lincoln Theatre, a lone daylight bandit, flourishing a pair of .38 calibre automatic revolvers held up three ticket-sellers at the Colonnade entrance, robbed them of $177 of the day's receipts, calmly walked out into U street where hundreds of others
JOSEPH L. DODSON, one of the three Colonnade doormen, who was held up by robber.
were strolling or idling, got into a taxicab and escaped.
The stick-up and robbery occurred at 3:30 o'clock, in the midst of the second game of the Howard University Interfraternity League championship series between the Alpha Phi Alpha and Kappa Alpha Psi teams. Joseph L. Dodson, of Phi Beta Sigma; Norman Williams, of Alpha, and Leonard Johnson, of Kappa were the league representatives who were on the door.
Youth Acts Suspicious
According to the story told Tribune reporter, a few minutes after the fire-up, the men were sitting at the ticket-seller's desk talking when a suspicious acting youth entered and stood by the steps which lead into the street. He remained there saying nothing for several minutes and then left. Scarcely had he taken leave when it is said, another man, perhaps a little older, descended the steps and pointing a pistol at the doormen, ordered the three of them in a corner near a telephone booth, out of sight of any who might enter the place. The man then riffed the money drawer of all the cash in sight. About $50 stuck in the back of the drawer escaped the intruder's vision.
Dr. Charles B. Fisher, of 1500 T Street, whom the robber passed on the way out, gave chase when Dodson, recovering from his surprise, velled "Stop that man."
Dr. Fisher declares he ordered the cab driver to stop, but his command was not heeded. He then, according to the story, sought his own car for the purpose of following the taxi. However, by the time he had freed himself of the traffic jam, the car with the robber and his loot had disappeared.
Dr. Fisher was Stopped
The physician declares that he would have probably entered the place before the gunman had accomplished his purpose, but for a boy, believed by police to have been the same mysterious youth whose presence at the scene of the hold-up preceded by only a few seconds the appearance of the bandit. This youngster stopped Dr. Fisher outside the Colonnade entrance and asked if the doctor could prescribe for a troublesome foot, explaining at length just how the "aimment" affected him.
Motorcycle Policeman Dewey A. Davis, white, attached to the Eighth Precinct, who was dispatched to investigate the case, received a broken leg right when struck by a District of Columbia Surface Division truck, at Tenth and U streets. Officer Davis was then re- (Continued on page 4)

THEATRICAL
THE JAZZ SINGER HELD OVER FOR SECOND WEEK AT THE REPUBLIC
Al Jolson in "The Jazz Singer" both ruil Vitaphone accompaniment will be shown for a second week at the Republic Theatre, beginnning Sunday, April 15th. No picture ever shown has gained the favorable comments such as "The Jazz Singer" has during its run at the Republic. Young and Old alike have expressed their enthusiasm in tears and laughter as "The Jazz Singer" unfolds its great story. To see and to hear Al Jolson sing and talk is a thrill that perhaps comes once in a lifetime. Indeed, Vitaphone is thrilling Washington like it has thrilled the entire world.
During the showing of "The Jazz Singer" the opening hours at the Republic are Sunday at 2:30 p. m., and week-days at 12 noon. Performances are continuous. For your own comfort attend the matinee shows if possible; so as to avoid the night crowds.
Al Jolson in "The Jazz Singer" with Vitaphone will not be shown at any other local theatre.
"IN A MOMENT OF TEMPTATION" AT 'HE BROADWAY
For Sunday and Monday the screen tatraction will be "In A Moment of Temptation" by Laura Jean Libbey. There is excitement aplenty in this picture, which follows the adventures of a pretty little shop girl wrongly accused of theft, and imprisoned through the unfeeling machinations of a jealous woman. After her liberation she starts a campaign within the very doorsteps of her enemy. For Tuesday only, the feature picture will be "Once and Forever", with Patsy Ruth Miller and Johnny Harron. It is one of the most gripping screen plays seen here depicting a romance that has its inception just prior and during the great World War, but with very little of the war atmosphere.
For Wednesday and Thursday, the screen attraction will be "Dead Man's Curve", with Douglass Fairbanks, Jr., Kit Guard, and Sally Blane. With the opening scenes of this picture laid on the race track, the story traces the adventures of a youth fired with the determination to win in spite of untold handicaps. The spirit of daredevil bravery runs through the entire show to the end where the young hero wins the great classic in a desperate display of wit and endurance. Talent Thursday, three cash prizes. For Friday and Saturday, the feature picture will be "Beau Sabrieur" with Gary Cooper, Evelyn Brent, Noah Beery, and William Powell.
The picture "Beau Sabreur" tells the story of a young French officer who vows to his uncle that he will live and die for France and forget that such things as women exist. Then he becomes mixed up in a series of desert battles, in which he has his work cut out so that France may triumph. Country Store Saturday. Extra, Sunday only, 7 to 10, White Brothers' Band.
FAMOUS STAGE SUCCESS,
"ROSE-MARIE", IN PICTURES
'AT THE LINCOLN THEATRE
NEXT WEEK
To Insure a film production equally important to the screen as was the musical play of "Rose-Marie" to the stage, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer assembled a remarkable screen cast for the screen version.
The cast, which reads like a blue book of the cinema, is headed by Joan Crawford in the title role and James Murray in the featured male role. These two are the youngsters who have made the most rapid strides up the cinema ladder during the last year. Murray is not yet so well known to the picture-goers as Miss Crawford, but with the release of the pictures he has already made he will become one of the best known young leading men of the screen. House Peters, who has achieved fame on the stages of three continents—America, Europe and the Antipodes—as well as screen fame the world over, has the role of Sergeant Mclone of the Royal Northwest Mounted in "Rose-Marie", which will be shown at the Lincoln Theatre four days, beginning Sunday. April 15.
Creighton Hale, who has been a star and leading man of pictures during the last dozen years, has the sympathetic role of Rose-Marie's husband, while Gibson Gowland, one of the featured players of Erich von Stroheim's "Greeed" and "Blind Husbands", has the role of "Black Bastein", leader of a gang of northwoods cut-throats. Polly Moran, who first achieved screen fame in "Sheriff Nell" comedies after spending twenty years on the vaudeville stage of America, Europe and South Africa, plays the role of Lady Jane, keeper of a resort and tavern. The management has secured the original music score, such as was used at the Astor Theatre, New York. Lewis N. Brown will preside at the console.
The screen attraction for Thursday, Friday and Saturday, April 19, 20, and 21, will be Oscar Michaels' production of "Thirty Years Later," with an all-star colored cast. "Thirty Years Later" is adapted for the screen from the book "The Tangle." by Henry F. Browning. This production is a tribute to the colored race and is crammed full of many interesting, exciting and pathetic moments, the climaxx of which is the love of a mother for her son.
On Saturday only, there will al-

Also, by special arrangements and through the courtesy of the Pathe News Service, there will be on the screen at the Lincoln Theatre the exclusive motion pictures of the Alumni Pageant and Reunion of the Dunbar High School.
ELIZABETH SMITH IN "BLUE

THEATRE NEXT WEEK
Irvin C. Miller, who has brought so many attractions to the Howard Theatre, will bring there for the week of April 16, the show that was such a decided hit during its last visit to Washington, "Blue Baby", featuring Elizabeth Smith.

Dudley, Jr., who recently brought to this Theatre his novelty show, "Ginger Snaps", Teddy Frazier, Louise Williars, Edgar Martin, Albert Jackson, and a chorus of dazzling beauties.
The screen attraction for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday will be "Man Crazy", the First National production featuring Dorothy Mackaill and Jack Mulhall. "Man Crazy" has been acclaimed the best vehicle that this popular team has ever had. It has an exceptional cast and the photography is beautiful. "Man Crazy" is adapted from the Saturday Evening Post story by Grace Sartwell Mason and deals with the daughter of an aristocratic old New England family, who horrifies her sedate grandmother by starting a hot-dog stand along the old post road and climax-

Supported by John West as Jack Cheesyon, son of an old British army officer and a student at Oxford College, and Stewart Gee as Charley Wykham, another student and a buddy of Jack, Beaubian portrayed Charley's Aunt, Dona Lucia D'Alvadorez, in the old maidish manner in which they pictured her. Beaubian, by the way, was Lord Fancourt Babberly, a friend of the two boys, who agreed to disguise as Charley's aunt when that worthy's change of mind, about visiting Charlie, threatened to break up a party the boys had arranged.
Boys Are Good Beauties
Adopting the flapper style of the early nineties, "Auntie" who was alleged to have been made a millionaire through the death of her husband, deceived both Stephen Spettigue (William Hopkins) and Colonel Sir Francis Chesney (Montague Cobb). The former was an uncle to the two "coeds" with whom Jack and Charley were in love, and the latter was Jack's father. Both were desirous of "marrying in money".
Seen it? Heard it? If not you had better, because if you miss it you'll miss the treat of your life, so don't fail to see Al Jolson in "The Jazz Singer" on the Vitaphone now playing the Republic Theatre.
Each performance of "The Jazz Singer" rouses the audience to wild outbursts of enthusiasm, expressed by tears, laughter or cheers.
The play is tender, moving, and dramatic. It is concerned with the son of a cantor who when his father insists that he be brought up to follow his vocation, rebels. Whipped by his father for singing in a cafe, he runs away from home, and pursues a rough road until, in a San Francisco cabaret, he sings.

NEW SUBDIVISION
S, H -Rose, real estate dealer of
this city, has announced the open-
ing of a subdivision for home seek-
ers in nearby Maryland. In mak-
ing. his announcement, Mr. Rose
stated that -he has a plan that is
new and worthy of the most care-
ful consideration and will doubt-
i eee of careful
thinking people. The investor re-
ceives nothing less than an acre if
land with a co-operative working
agreement to form the lund as x
pool and divide the earnings with
each land owner.
By this method, says Mr. Rose,
the investor has his land and gets
all of the benefits of increase in
value, while farming the land
brings him an immediate return
pn the cost of the land. There are
many who would like to own from
one to five acres of land with a
view of later building a home on
it. Mr. Rose — to enable such
Pegple to achieve ‘this result,

of its operations—we thank God
that we were born to parents with
African blood in their veins. We
have not ever sound it necessary

wreak feeble spite, racial fear and
vindictive bigotry upon some lone
individual or his family.
Long ago we predicted that the
cheap “Nighthood” of the poor
whites in America led by equally
poor Methodist ministers, would
destroy itself by its own usurions
and traitorous character. It is
coming to pass. In the first place,
this revival of the Klan hegan in

school child knows how and by

THE SLATER MEMORIAL
Few persons reading the 45th
annual report of the Slater Fund,
realize what it means either in the
total amount of money distributed
‘by the trustees under the original
gift of $1,000,000 by John Fox
Slater, upon the occasion of his
67th birthday, or, in the greater
effectiveness of Negro life bene-
“ited by the instruction flowing
‘from the disposition of the various
arate
“Immortality is only for those
‘whose building material can per-
petuate itself,” says Robert Quil-
len, in the Washington Post: “If
the mark of your passing is to
remain it must remain in some-
‘thing that can not die.” Measured
by such a yard-stick, John F.
Slater has builded for himself an
indestructible memorial.
That such a result should have
followed from his gift, comes nat-
urally from the motives which act-
uated him. In his letter of trans-
mittal of the fund to establish the
foundation in 1882, he said, “The
‘disabilities suffered by these peo-
| ple (the lately emancipated popu-
‘lation of the Southern States, and
their posterity), and their singular
patience and fidelity in the great
crisis of the nation, establish a
joint claim on the sympathy and
good will of humane and patriotic
| men.”
It is to our younger generation
(that this Slater Fund means so
|much. They feel their independ-
ence. They are inclined to disre-
| gard all attachments to the past
and to affront those who direct
their attention to their‘real friends.
| Born in the midst of great mater-
|ial accumulations and cheap and
\easily attained shoddy imitations
of such things, they are inclined
| to make false estimates of values.
These young people should know
that the Slater Fund has made
|pessible many of the instructors
under whom they sat for their
| chart of the Path out of the laby-
|rinth of ignorance. In the past
45 years, that fund has expended
almost three million dollars for
educational ajd to the Negro in the
sixteen former slave states and the
Pistrict of Columbia,
It has fostered science, English
jand teacher training in such
, schools as Atlanta, Fisk, Shaw,
| Virginia Union, Alien, Clark, New
Orleans, Livingstone, Morehouse,
Talladega, Wiley, Benedict, Bish-
op, Jackson, of Jackson, Miss.; Lane

refined emotional response to the
best music and. development in
sight reading of both vocal and in-
strumental music. Because music
is to be held up as one of the im-
portant, vital, mediums of charac-
ter education, the department has
selocted as “immtdiate | goals in
hing the flowing ideas: co-
operation: ‘subordination of indi-
vidual will and interests to those
of the group, 0” the parts’ to the
whole; teamwork; social habits and
attitudes; refinement and restraint
in emotional response; responsibil
ity; dependability; _ self-reliance
that doesn’t pass over inte egotism.
Critical analysis of a large num-
ber of cases prove to the depart-
ment that vocal music’ does not
reach every individual; so. that
they aim to meet the definite need
for class ‘instruction in instrument-
‘al. music, beginning with the
Fourth grade.
Methods of Instruction
They atte: pt in the first three
grades to furnish a musical exper-
fence for the pupils by introducing
a number of fine art songs an
through them to train the child in
the proper use of his voice. Sight-
reading is introduced, informally,
by imitation in the’ first’ grade.
In the Second grade they have
books in their hands whenever ob-
servation songs are used. In the
‘Third grade children read the Sec-
ond grade observation songs,
pointing to the notes as they read.
Study songs that present rhythmic
and tanal problems are used in the
Fourth grade where is intrdouced
a third elemerit, theory problems,
extending up through all element-
ary prades. Finally in the Fifth
and Sixth grades the synthetic
process is applied ‘to the study
songs,
Reasons for Teaching Music
Modern educational aims require
that those who frame a general
course of study for children must
provide not only for vocational
Preparation, but they must include
those experiences, skills, attitudes
and appreciations which will help
them to live,
Music, because of its powerful
influence upon the very innermost
recesses of our subjective life, be-
Gpze of its stimulating effect up-
6n our physical, mental and.spirit-
ual natures and because of its well-
nigh universality of appeal, con-
tributes directly to both of’ these
fundamental purposes of education.
It is generally agreed that the
primary aim. of music instruction
in the public schools should be the
development of a lasting love for
the best in music, an intel ligent ap-
Preciation of it, and a willing pay:
ipation in it.
Musie in the public schools now-
adays includes not. only singing,
but intelligent listening throug!
the use of mechanical devices such
as-the talking machine, piano and
orchestral . instruments, perform-
anees. by singers and players for
the benefit of the children and class
instruction on band or orchestral
instruments and th. piano.
The music department makes
several general recommendations
and definite suggestions ir the mu-
si¢ course of study that are vital
to the successful attainment of the
objectives as outlined.
Music Demonstration
} ‘First; the teacher's aim which
includes: general—to represent
Visually, on the staff, songs that
are familiar to the class so as to
develop discrimination with re-
pet to. different phrases within
the songs, ‘and to, distinguish be-
tweon’ “different ‘familiar songs.
Specific—to use the class’ aural
appreciation of, and skill in, sing-
ing certain songs. The children's
aim ‘shall’ be’ to sing the above
songs in good time with sweet
light voices, saying the words so
that they tell a true story, and
sing the verse of the song correct-
ly. Activities (pupils’ part) and
method-procedure concludes this
plan as outlined.
‘Teachers Conferences
Elementary grade teachers con-
ferences on music are held every
six weeks at the Cleveland School
Auditorium which includes inter-
pretation of unit of course of study
and demonstration on activities
and. methods.
Diagnostic Program In Music
To have teachers divide each ex-
perimental class into thre¢ groups,
namely, (a) those who have the
most, musical woice and who Fe-
spond most accurately in the sing-
ing: (6) these who are imerend:
jate in these respects; (c) those
who are least musical.’ Again the
teachers. divide the class into
three groups; but this time basing
their selection upon what they eon
sider to be the individual differ-
ences in sight teading and sight
ine
teachers are’ requested to
collect data relating to the experi-
mental and control classes and to
outside study of music, as well as
pupils’ interest in music; to ad-
ininister the Seashore “Measure of
Musical Talent” testing the senses
of piteh, intensity, time, rhythm,
gonsonance and tonal’ memory.
‘The aim is to determine the degree

FIVE GIRLS RIDE FROM N.Y. TO D.C. ON BIKES
FIVE GIRLS RIDE FROM N.Y. TO D.C. ON BIKES
"Love for the out of doors" prompted the trip to Washington, last week by bicycle of five fair members of Harlem's younger set. Misses Leolya Nelson, Mary Lou Jackson, Velva Jackson, Constance White and Ethyl Miller, left New York City at 6 o'clock last Friday morning and pedaled Capitalward, arriving Sunday night at 9 o'clock. Strange as it may seem, Miss Nelson, whose vocation is teaching physical education, is the one who volunteered upon their arrival, that she was not sure at times whether it was a ride or a hike. The numberless hills encountered made pedalling very difficult, she said. The young women spent Friday night in Philadelphia and Saturday night in Wilmington. The first day of riding covered 110 miles, the second day only 30 miles, and the last day 115 miles.
Miss M. Jackson is a student at Hunter College' New York City, Miss V. Jackson, a nurse at Gramercy Hospital, New York City, Miss White a student at Sargent, Boston, and Miss Miller a teacher in the New York public schools. They returned to New York by train.

Durham, N. C.—Slugging with complete abandon, running wild on the bases and with two lone charges charged up against them, the N. C. College, "Eagles" went on a rampage here Tuesday and swamped Shaw University by a 20 to 1 score. Person, rookie moundman for the "Eagles" pitched air-tight ball, striking out 12 Shaw men, and had, at most times good backing in the field. The "Eagles" scored in 7 of the 8 frames they played, garnering 17 hits off two Shaw pitchers, Black being nipped for 10 hits in five innings, and Jones who replaced him yielding 7 hits.

recent membership effort by the local Y. M. C. A., had netted 369 new members. This number was sufficient to beat the Baltimore "Y" decisively, Baltimore having obtained 145 members.
The outstanding worker of the campaign was C. B. Lee, who brought in 58 members. The National Benefit Division under Mr. John R. Pinkett, composed of agents and officials of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company was the winning division with a total of 227 members. The Cabinet Division, Eugene, Davidson, chairman, obtained 64 members and the general headquarters working under the general chairman, Tecumseh Bradshaw, secured 78 members.
The feature of the final meeting of the campaign was the organization of an Emblem Club. This Club is national in scope but is organized for the first time in the Association in Washington. The central idea is to join together those in the membership of the Association who are interested in leading their friends into membership. These members do this when opportunity presents itself and their efforts are recognized by the awarding of certain emblems when the first two members are secured and again when five, ten and twenty-five or more are secured.
T. Harvey Burris was elected president of the Emblem Club. The other officers elected were: Charles W. Ross, vice-president, and Pierre H. Davis, secretary-treasurer. The thirty-one members who qualified for the distinction of membership in the Emblem Club under the minimum requirement of bringing in at least two additional members are: S. W. Rutherford. Louis M. Perkinson, Mayhugh A. Graham, Chas. A. Bailey, C. B. Amos, C. E. Jackson, John R. Pinkett, Pierre H. Davis, Isaiah D. Kearse, John H. Williams, Eugene Davidson, T. Harvey Burris, Campbell C.

ALUMNI ASS'N IS ADVOCATED AT RE-UNION
The home-coming and re-union reception of Dunbar High School Alumni was held in the school auditorium, Wednesday night, at which Montague Cobb, '21, presided. Principal Walter L. Smith, in his address of welcome, paid tribute to Professor James C. Wright, typewriting instructor, "whose energetic work and strenuous efforts made possible the event." Mr. Smith greeted the alumnus and advocated the organization of an alumni association. He stressed the need of such an organization and pointed out that "not only the alumni members were included in his welcome, but all of those who had been compelled for various reasons to leave the school before completion of their courses, as well."
Wilkinson Speaks
Assistant Superintendent Garnett C. Wilkinson, who graduated from the M Street High School (now Dunbar) in the class of '98, spoke. Mr. Wilkinson's talk indorsed the ideas of Mr. Smith. He emphasized the need of an alumni association, pointing out that "such an organization might be influential in the setting aside of the statute which prohibits the payment of more than 125 per cent of assessed value for land which is to be used by the District or Federal Government. "With the abolition of this statute work on the incomplete stadium in the rear of Dunbar might be begun," said Mr. Wilkinson. "A large amount of money, set aside by Congress for the stadium, rests untouched in the Treasury because of this statute." Mr. Wilkinson then suggested that a room in the school be set aside where business of such an association might be transacted.
To Organize Alumni
To Organize Alumni
Edward Beaubian, arose at the close of the speech of Mr. Wilkinson and moved that Principal Smith be requested to issue a call for a meeting of Dunbar alumni for the purpose of organizing an association. The suggestion was seconded by Joseph Jenkins, president of the class of '23, and unanimously passed by those present. The program was featured by a rare and beautiful piece of artistic work. The "Temple of Fame" designed, built and painted by William D. Nixon and Samuel D. Milton, fine arts teacher, depicted three outstanding phases of life, which were explained by Julia D. Dulany, "23. "Recreation," "Science" and "Home" were characterized by individuals, all former graduates.
The musical program consisted of three vocal selections by Ethyl B. Wise, '23; two violin numbers by Garey M. Brown, '24, and an overture by the Dumbar High School Orchestra. Dancing in the army followed the program.
BOLD BANDIT STAGES
HOLD-UP
(Continued from page 1)
Turning to the station to report the affair.
When Headquarters detectives arrived the driver of the taxi cab was located and questioned. He told them that his "fare" had engaged him before entering the Colonnade. He said the man told him he was seeking his wife and thought she was there. When asked why he did not heed Dr. Fishers' command, the driver declared he misunderstood the doctor. The man, he told police, rode to Fifteenth and Irving streets, paid his fare, got out and then walked in the direction of Fourteenth street.
Neither the mysterious young-ster who walked up the steps just prior to the robber's descent, nor the lad with the painful foot who delayed the entrance into the Colonnade of Dr. Fisher, were located by police.
Each of the three doormen; as well as Dr. Fisher, asserts that he can identify the gunman. He wore no face covering whatever, they said.
The new entrance to the Colonnade in use now not more than two weeks, aided the bandit to no little extent. The store, adjacent to the theatre entrance where several businesses have been run, was remodelled and made smaller to permit the construction of a hallway between the street door and a newly built stairway. The old entrance was cemented. When the rubber entered the place, Monday, the ticket-sellers found themselves trapped in so they were not within sight of the street, and, they were also hidden from view of any one who might have been in the theatre lobby.

rently in good health. He visited the nurses at the Curtis Private Surgical Sanitarium, whom he knew, last Thursday. He was operated on there last summer for hernia. He returned here from California two weeks ago.
William Clarence Matthews attained fame as an athlete in his school days, first at Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, Tuskegee, Ala.; then at Exeter Academy, Andover Mass., and finally at Harvard University.
He organized Tuskegee's first football team and served as captain of its baseball team. At Exeter he was a football, baseball and track star. In his fourth year he was the captain of the Exeter baseball team.
At Harvard he played quarterback and end on the varsity football team and shortstop on the baseball team.
In his later years he aspired to national leadership in politics. With President Coolidge and Chairman William C. Butler of the Republican National Committee being from Massachusetts, he succeeded in being put in charge of the colored division of the campaign work for the election of President in 1924.
Shortly after President Coolidge was elected in his own right, Mr. Matthews presented seventeen demands for recognition of colored Republicans. These demands were ignored. In October, 1925, he was appointed a special assistant to the Attorney General.
While Mr. Matthews was busy in Washington, those who opposed him in Massachusetts were active. While a heated mayoralty campaign was under way in Boston, he was shunted to San Francisco to represent the Government in some water adjudication matters pending in the United States court for the southern district of California.
Born in Alabama
Mr. Matthews was born in Selma, Ala., Jan. 7, 1877. He was educated at Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, Philips Exeter Academy and Harvard University. He studied law at Boston University graduating with the degree of bachelor of laws in 1907.
He was admitted to the bar of Massachusetts in 1908 and immediately began the practice of law. In 1913, President Taft appointed him a special assistant to the Attorney General at Boston.
He married Penelope Belle Lloyd in Montgomery, Ala., on July 6, 1904. She survives him. A sister, Mrs. Fannie Matthews Lee of Detroit, Mich., also survives him.

Of the 40,000 or more who participated in the celebration at the Zoo, full eighty per cent were colored, while less than one-sixth of the slightly more than 30,000 who celebrated at the White Lot were Negroes.
Monument Lot
A large number of those parents, who with their children avoided both the Executive Grounds and the Zoo Park, enjoyed themselves at the Monument Lot. Still others, though comparatively few, chose Capitol Hill. However scattered, the sole object of the kiddies was to roll eggs. Now that last sentence brings to mind a question, "were they rolled?" This year, it appeared, the Easter-colored "hen-fruit" received much rougher treatment than in the past. In some instances the eggs took the places of baseballs, in others they were substituted for sling-shot ammunition. The most unfortunate were devoured.
There was the usual gathering of "sheiks" and "shebas," of course whose trek to the Zoo was to see and to be seen. In this respect, however, the total number of turnouts was far below that of previous years. This falling-off may be attributed to the chilly weather

ARMOND W. SCOTT, JR. INJURED
Armond W. Scott Jr., a sophomore at Lincoln University, son of Lawyer and Mrs. Armond W. Scott, of this city, suffered a painful, but not serious, accident while practicing a high jump preparatory to the Inter-collegiate spring track meet in which Lincoln University is to participate. Because of the narrowness of the pit, in coming down, the pikes of his running shoe stuck in the top of his foot, which was the same foot in which he was shot in March of 1924 by a man who attempted to drive through the cadets of the Dunbar High School. He is now at the home of his parents where he has been under the constant professional care of Dr. Hamilton Martin and the x-ray

In our last Sunday's lesson we turned aside from the regular sequence of facts in the life of Christ, which constitutes the lesson materials for the first half of the present year, to give timely consideration to the theme of Easter. Having left this sequence at the point where Jesus fitted Himself into the prophetic picture of Messianic suffering, we return to it at that point at which He revealed His glory through the transfiguration.

His death was only a few months in the future, and His disciples needed to be prepared for it, lest their faith should fall when it should come. In the present lesson the transfiguration gives them a vision of the real nature, power and glory of the Lord whom they were following.

figuration served to solidify this belief into positive knowledge. For this important revelation of Himself Jesus took Peter, James and John into a high mountain and there "He was transfigured before them." There, overshadowed by a bright cloud of the Divine Presence, the uniquely privileged three disciples were permitted to look upon a trio of Divines, the glorified Christ and Moses and Elias, His attendants from the spirit-world. Out from the cloud came a voice of heavenly acknowledgement of the Divine Sonship of the Christ. As the disciples stood in rapt amazement they could hear the conversations among Jesus and His heavenly attendants.
Jesus did not remain upon the mountain top in the glory of the transfiguration, but soon returned to the plain of the routine of His life—service. When He and the three disciples who had accompanied Him returned they found that in their absence the disciples remaining behind had been sought in vain in behalf of a demonic child. Rebuking the faithlessness of these disciples, Jesus relieved the child of its suffering.
Thus the Savior returned from the plain of service. Upon both the mountain top of His glory to He clearly revealed the power, majesty and glory of His divine Self. The lesson also teaches the reality of the spirit-world and its relation to the present one which we know.

C. B. Beatty, of Brooklyn, N. Y.
will speak at Howard Theatre,
Sunday, April 15, at 11 a. m. He
will discuss why it is that for
more than 1800 years men have
tried to convert the world, using
every conceivable scheme and
spending vast sums of money in the
effort.
What is the explanation? Are
our efforts and methods wrong?
Does God disapprove of them? Are
we giving the people the truth?
Does God want the world
converted? And lastly, does the Bible
offer a solution to the problem?
You are invited to hear this
lecture and then decide for yourselves.

NEW YORK BAPT'S UNITE WITH NAT'L CONVENTION
NEW YORK CITY, N. Y.—(Special)—By unanimous vote the New York State Baptist Association decided here in its session Friday, April 6, to unite with the National Baptist Convention of America. This action was taken after an address had been delivered to the association by Henry A. Boyd of Nashville, Tenn., the secretary of the Sunday School Congress and secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, who was the honored guest of the association.
Rev. E. D. Bowles, D.D., is the president of the association, while Rev. G. E. Stewart is the secretary. The sessions were held at the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church, this city, located at No. 11 W. 136th street. This action is regarded here as far-reaching, by the Baptists of the empire state, as this is said to be the oldest association in the state of New York. Rev. J. S. Givens, pastor of the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church, and his members were hosts for this semi-annual session.

with several’ prominent. members
of the Howard University Alumni
Association.
Prexy Won't Indorse
The gathering is the direct out-
growth of feeling on the part of
the student body for the unwar-
ranted action of President Morde-
cai W. Johnson in his failure to
indorse the recommendation of the
Board of Athletic Control present
ed to, him long ago. This recom-
mendation advocated the retention
of Coach Watson, whose contract
ended last fall, for another three-
year period. | *
From present indications the
fight of the students will be waced
against both the prexy and the
Board of Athletic Control.
With the concentrated. effort
which seems #0 have been just re-
leased from the barrier, it eannot
be very long ere the officials, who
have all but killed athletics “on
the hill,” will find themselves waist
deep in scalding «water.
The current issue of the “Hill-
top” carries an editorial which
plainly evinces the attitude of a
large part of the student body.
Lyman V. Williams, himself a lov-
er of “peace and prosperity”
shoulders a musket and opens a
barrage on all timber connected
with the presidency; and (as he
calls it) the “lead-head” Athletic
Board.
An Argument
He says in part: “The Board of
Athletic Control, whose- sole pur-
pose is the regulatio. and control
of the intercollesiate athletic aciv~
ities and interests of Howard Uni-
versity, seems to be, according to |
cur estimation, a mere figure-head
organization existing ona scrap
of paper and limited in its powers.
“Article V, Section C, of the
constitution of the board reads:
‘The Board of Athletic Control
shall appoint all coaches, trainers,
ard team physicians subject to ap.
proval by the Executive Commit-
tee of the Board of Trustees.
“Sounds very good to outside
readers, and perhaps it has been
very efvective during past years.
We know that Article V of the
constitution during past years has
been the guiding point and final
decision in placing coaches here
at Howard, for if the board recom-
mended coach to the president
for his final reommendation to the
Trustee Board that’ was ample
proof that the person was the logei-
cal candidate for consideration as
previous executives had the utmost
confidence and respect for the wise
judgment “and opinions of the
Board of Athletic Control. .

of Athletic Control met, and voted

“I regret Bolden’s hurried jump
and think he should have stuck with
the league. It is easier to correct
evils from within than by getting
cutside and criticising... It- was
Mr. Strong ‘Bolden referred to
when he spoke a a cartatp che

lowed his white team to’ play the
league clubs there on Sundays:
They draw from ten to twelve
thousand people and no colored
club ever gets over $600 on a Sun-
day there.
“On the other hand, Jim’ Ken-
nan and George Rossiter, white
mon, who own. the Baltimore and
Lineomn Giants Clubs, are loyal and
ace high. They are for the lea-
gue. Strong has played his col-
ored club against, whitet clubs and
has paid the white players as high
as $100 each for a game, ‘giving
his colored players about eight
dollars apiece. When. Jess Huby

“I think: Ed Bolden is: one: of
the smartest men in the business

a bad schedule ruined him.
‘Pompez Loyal
“Strong thought that «when he

the Cuban owner was too. big, a
man to do such a shoddy trick. He
is a gentleman. and a square-shoot-

“The league saw fit to elect Mr.

in the East will. prosper -by -him
doing so.
“The teams which have jumped

The new building for the How-
ard University College of Medi-
cine, which is located at Fifth and
W Streets, Northwest, west of the
present medical building has been
completed. The new building site
occupies an entire city block.
ayrhe 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-
inforeed concrete. The walls are
of red brick with trimmings of In-
diana limestone. The three floors
of this structure have added a to-
tal of 70,230 square feet of lec-
ture room and laboratory space to
the facilities of the Medical Col-
lege, which area is now distribut-
ed. and equipped as follows:
The Sub-Basement
Heat, light and power are taken
from the central power plant at
Freedmen’s Hospital. The sub-
basement contains special ventilat-
ing, temperature control and heat-
ing 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 totalling 18,-
000 cubic feet per minute can be
exhausted from the dissecting lab-
oratory, animal room, morgue, em-
balming room, and auditorium.
The Ground Floor
The entire south wing of the
ground floor is occupied by facili-
ties for practical anatomy consist-
ing 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 cera-
mic tiie 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 ele-
vator, to the animal run on the
and all modern facilities for the
southeast room and to the animal
operation room in the central wing.
This room is equipped with ‘cages
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 prepartory to sectioning.
Storage of the cadavers is accomp-
lished 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 ‘oisture-proof cov-
er, with movable wooden cross
bars to each of which a cadaver
may be attached. Over each tank
there is a track and trolley with
@ pulley designed to enable one
Person to transport cadavers to
and from the tanks. i
The morgue refrigerator is lo-
cated between the morgue and the
embalming room with one face in
each room. Ail nine convert:
ments are equipped with double
slide stretcher-type 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 crema-
tory furnace, large sink unit, in-
strument cases, and filing cases
for records.

the preparation of specimens and
is connected by sta-rs to the mu-
seum on the floor above.
Radiographic Department
The radiographic department is
completely equipped with x-ray and
stereoscopic apparatus. This de-
partment consists of a dark room
for screen work and the examina-
tion 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 ster-
eoscopie methods. | ‘These rooms
have been located close to the main
dissecting laboratory so that stu-
dents working in the latter can
from time to time correct and sup-
plement the ideas acquired from
their studies uf the dead bodies

SOME FACTS PERTAINING
TO HOWARD MEDICAL
SCHOOL
The Medical School of How-
ard University was, the first
medical school in the United
States to admit women upon
equality. with men.
One of ite rat graduates was
Dr, Mary D. Spackman, class of
1872.
‘One of its oldest living gradu-
ates is Dr. Mary A. Parsons,
class of 1874.
Many of its graduates have
attained distinction. Its gradu-
ates are scattered all over the
United. States and many _ are
practicing in foreign countries.
It has many students from
the British West Indies and
from many other foreign coun-
tries.
It was the first medical
school in the District of Colum-
bia to become strictly a day
school.
It was among the first to re-
quire a four-year course for the
degree of Doctor of Medicine.
eee aoe
i § was organized
in 1891. Howard Medi¢al School
has been a-member since 1892.

First and Second Floor
Laboratories
In planning the building partic-
ular care was exercised to group
both eee and vertically the
leboratories and lecture room fa-
cilities for closely related subjects.
The entire three floors of the
south wing of the building are oc-
cupied by practical anatomy and
its related subjects, that is, prac-
tical 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 yuping related subjects, the
northwest wing contains physiolo-
gical ‘chemistry on the ground
jor; pharmacology on the first
floor and physiology on the second
floor: while the northeast wing
contains laboratories for bacteriol-
ogy on the first floor and pathology
on the second floor.
‘All of these students’ laborator-
ies, research laboratories and lec-
ttre rooms contain laboratory ta-
ble facilities 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 op-
posite sides of the interior courts
make it possible either to reach
any laboratory direct from the ex-
terior of the building without go-
ing through any other laboratory
or to use any one portion of the
structure while the remainder of
the building is locked.

NEGROES GAVE
OVER $150,000
TO ENDOWMENT
‘The dedication of the New Medi-
cal Building at Howard closes a
brilliant record for the giving of
money on the part of Negroes.
In the campaigning to raise $500,-
000 for the endowment and equip-
ment, it was estimated that Ne-
yroes contributed: over $160,250
themselves.
Congress appropriated $370,000
for the construction of the build-
‘ing. The General Education Board
gave $130,000 for the equipmnet,
making the total cost of the build-
ing and equipment $500,000.
Fhe General. Education Board
also gave $250,000 toward the
$500,000 Endowment Fund. Last
February it was announced that
$99,000 was still needed to com-
plete the endowment fund and this
amount had to be raised before
July’ 1, in order to get the other
donations.
Large Gifts Made _
Julius Rosenwald agreed to give
$25,000 of this amount and Sena-
tor Couzens $5000. Through the
efforts .of.Dr. Mordecai W. John-
son, president of the institution,
and Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-
treasurer, with the united co-opera-
tion of the alumni and friends, the
drive came to a successful close on
duly 1. The drive netted more than
the amount needed.
A tablet bearing the name of
all those who gave $1000 or more
has ‘been placed in the corridor of
the new. tapi ‘There are sixty
names of $1000 donations and one,
Mrs. Annie M. Malone of the Poro
College, who gave $10,000.
The school now has an endow-
ment of $590,000 and a new build-
ing and equipment worth $500,000.

SECRETARY AUBERT WORK
PRESENTS NEW MEDICAL
BUILDING 10 HOWARD
The two-day. dedicatory and
opening exercises of the new How-
ard University medical — school
building came to a close last Tues-
day night with a banquet in honor
of Dr. Edward Arthur Balloch,
dean of the medical school; Dr.
Collins Marshall, vice dean, of the
medical college, and Dr. Andrew
Brown, vice dean of the dental
school. Each of them has reached
the retirement. age and, it in re-
ported, they will be retired at the
end of this school year.
‘The exercises began Monday
morning. Dr. Hubert Work, Sec-
retary of the Interior, presented
the new half million dollar struc-
ture to the university. It was ac-
cepted on behalf of the university
by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-
‘treasurer, and on bebalf of the
‘trustees and the medical school by
Dr. Michel O. Dumas, a trustee.
Secretary Work Speaks
Secretary Work, who referred
with, pride to his profession of
physician, said:
“We here are not only celebrat-
ing the beginning of a new era
for the university, but are estab-
lishing a human beneficience.” Re-
ferring to the fact that many men
‘of both colors” had risen to emin-
ence from their start in Howard
University, Dr. Work said the
graduates ‘of the Medical Schoo!
now number 2,526,
“It is a tribute to the colored
race,” he said, “that the medical
department has been maintained sc
successfully. The success of How-
ard University has been founded
on the disposition of the white and
colored races to work together in
hzrmonious association. ‘The ap-
peal of the university to the col-
ored youth of the Nation has
raised it to the eminence of being
the largest university of its kind
in the world.”
