CAMERON APTS ARE LOOTED BY SNEAK THEIF
Takes Jewelry, Clothing and Valuables from Two Apartments
Suites 43 and 44, on the fourth floor of the Cameron Apartments, Vermont avenue and T street, northwest, were entered by a sneak thief Monday forenoon, and robbed of jewelry, clothing, and other articles of value. From apartment 43, occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Anderson, the thief removed several dresses and other valuables belonging to Mrs. Anderson. It was evident that the robber knew that Mr. Anderson and his wife were usually away from home during the day time, as his careful selection of such garments as seemed to suit his fancy indicated that he had spent some time in the apartment.
Apartment 44, occupied by Miss Mrs. Anderson. It was evident of a more hurried search. Receipts and other papers in a dresser drawer in Mrs. Stokes' room were scattered about in great profusion. Among the articles which Mrs. Stokes states were stolen are two diamond earrings and a lavalier with diamond setting, valued at approximately $150. A pair of sterling silver cuff links, treasured mainly as memosent of her deceased father, were also taken. In his hurry, the thief overlooked money laying on the mantel. Both robberies were reported to the police of the Eighth Precinct, who are conducting an investigation.

A. J. Diggs Sues Wife Who Was Taken From "Love Nest" by Police
NOW PAYING ALIMONY
Charges Misconduct on Her Part Since First Year of Marriage
As the result of a raid on a Diggs, 1636 Thirteenth street, northwest, May 27, Arthur J. Diggs, 1636 Thirteenth street, northwest, filed suit in the District Supreme Court Monday for an absolute divorce from Mrs. Susannah Diggs. He named Samuel C. Hawkins as the co-respondent.
In his bill of complaint, Mr. Diggs states that the correspondent rented an apartment at the P street address on April and lived there with Mrs. Diggs as man and wife until the early morning of May 27 when police raided the "love nest" and arrested them on a statutory charge. They were convicted in police court May 31.
Mr. Diggs alleges that his wife and the correspondent misconducted themselves at No. 1884 Columbia road, northwest, in the latter part of the year 1927 and the first part of the year 1928, spending at least three nights a week together. He also charges that they misconducted themselves at No. 310 Elm street, northwest, in the years 1924, 1925 and 1926.
Since 1912
From 1912 to 1923, he says, his wife has been known to go with unknown persons. In fact, he alleges, that from the very first year of their married life, she has shown no regard for her marital vows but has "consorted with all sorts of immoral and loose persons."
Whenever he attempted to remonstrate with her about her conduct, he states, she would hurl vituperation upon him and insisted she would go around with whom ever she pleased. On one occasion, he says, she attempted to asphyxiate him by turning on the gas while he was asleep.
In October, 1919, Mr. Diggs sought to establish residence in Rosslyn, Va. He filed a petition for an absolute divorce in the circuit court of Arlington County, Va., November 6, 1920. The court granted his petition February 21, 1921.
Wife Asks for Divorce
Mrs. Diggs went into the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, April 26, 1921, asking for a limited divorce. On the ground that the Virginia decree was fraudulent, the District Supreme Court granted her a limited divorce and ordered Mr. Diggs to pay her $3 a week alimony. This he has been paying ever since. Mr. Diggs now asks the District Supreme Court to grant him an absolute divorce and relieve him of the payment of the $3 weekly alimony. The couple were married in Alexandria, Va., March 17, 1910. Mr. Diggs is represented by the law firm of Haves and Davis.
CHARGES NONSUPPORT WANTS DIVORCE
Mrs. Daisy M. Brown, 1429 Corcoran street, northwest, Tuesday, asked the District Supreme Court to grant her a limited divorce from Bernard Brown, a city post office employee, 321 T street, northwest. She charges non-support. In her petition Mrs. Brown says that her husband was never industrious. He loafed for almost a year, she states, while she struggled to keep their home going by taking in roomers. While he loafed, she supported him and their minor child, she says. He has not contributed anything to their support, she claims, since February. In August, 1927, Mrs. Brown charges her husband took Lottie Allen in his automobile to Newport News, Va. The Allen woman telephoned and wrote her advising her of this trip, Mrs. Brown asserts. Mrs. Brown asks the court to grant her a limited divorce and alimony. The couple were married in the District of Columbia, June 29. They have a 9-year-old boy.

---
Again—as last year—cadet companies of the Dunbar High School made a clean sweep of honors in the annual competitive drill, held at American League Park. Thursday afternoon. It was the thirty-sixth competition to be staged by the local high school cadet units.
Company F, commanded by Captain Benjamin Henley, was the winner; Company A was second; and Company B third. The second place company was led by Captain Burke Syphax. Prior to the drill A was considered the favorite to capture the coveted prize. Robert G. McGuire commanded Company B.
A crowd of approximately 25,000 persons, old and young, the majority of which sported either the Red and Black of the victor or the Orange and Blue of the vanquished, saw the drill. The regiment was reviewed by F. Trubee Davidson, Assistant Secretary of War.
Lieutenant Colonel Benjamin O. Davis, U.S.A.; Lieutenant-Colonel John E. Green, U.S.A.; and Lieutenant-Colonel W. A. Hamilton, R.O.C., were the judges.
The Twenty-fourth Regiment consists of three battalions of three companies each. It is commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel Elmer Stokes.
Repetition of Last Year
The complete washout of Armstrong hopes was a repetition of last year's feat. In 1927, Companies B, E, and F were selected as three place winners in the order named. Of those companies, B and F simply changed places and E gave way to A in the competition, Thursday.
The diamond teachers' medal was pinned on Captain Henley by Mr. Davidson, while his subordinate commissioned officers were decorated with gold medals. The teachers' medal carries a long line of links upon which are engraved the names of winning captains of previous years. Captain Henley will wear the medal until commencement. His name will be engraved at the bottom of the present string. A gold medal also presented him is his permanent possession.
The overwhelming victory serves as more than sweet revenge for the defeat of the Dunbar battalion in the annual battalion competition, held May 15, at Howard Stadium. This was won by the Armstrong Second Battalion, Maj. Eaton Harrison, in command.
School Officials Present
Frank W. Ballou, Superintendent of Public Schools; Garnet C. Wilkinson, Assistant Superintendent of Schools; Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, Rev. F. I. A. Bennett, Mrs. Mary McNeill, Retired Supervising Principal John Nalle, Walter L. Smith, principal of Dunbar High School, and G. David Houston, Armstrong principal were among the guests of the regiment. Music was furnished by the High School Cadet Band, under the direction of Professor James Miller. The roster of the winning companies follow:

Gets 30 Days Along With Black Eye, Swollen Lip, and Bruises
Arming himself with a razor, John H. Campbell, an actor, early last Sunday morning, went to the Second Precinct Police Station to report that he had been attacked by a mob near Seventh and M streets, and severely beaten. He was arrested on a concealed weapon on charge and in Police Court, Monday, was given 30 days to go along with a swollen lip, a black eye and lacerations of the body administered to him by the crowd Campbell testified that he had applied to the police for their aid in his effort to collect a sum of money from a man who owed him for services rendered. This visit was made about 1 o'clock Monday morning. Campbell declared that he had not gotten more than two squares from the precinct when he was accosted by a number of men who charged him with being a "police pimp" and beat him up. He declared that the gang chased him and that one of them attacked him with a razor. He exhibited several slashes in his clothing.
Is a Magician
Campbell said he is an actor, playing the Mid City Theatre in the role of magician. He was, while here, staying at 1251 Seventh street, northwest. When the mob chased him, Campbell said, he ran to his room, armed himself with the razor, for protection while he went to the police station to report the assault.
When the precinct police investigated the slashes in the man's clothing to learn whether or not he had been cut, they found the razor in a vest pocket, they then charged him with carrying concealed weapons.
He told the court that he had reported the occurrence in the full faith that the policemen would protect him. He also declared that he recognized some of the men in the gang.
Campbell was fined $50. For the failure to pay, he was sentenced to serve thirty days.
CARSON OPERATES ON WIFE OF CHAS. LANE
Mrs. Ione Lane a public school teacher, underwent an operation at Carson's Private Hospital last Saturday morning. Her husband, Charles Lane, came here from New York to be with her. Mrs. Lane is reported to be recovering nicely.
BORNO MAY RETIRE AS PRES. OF HAITI
Questions growing out of American occupation of Haiti are in a fair way to be settled in a manner that will refute accusations made against the American policy in that country, according to a statement issued by Senator Tasker L. Oddie, Republican, of Nevada, on June 1. Senator Oddie based his statement upon assurances contained in a recent message addressed by President Borno of Haiti to the Haitian Council of State, a translation of which from the original French the Senator made public with the explanation that he had received it from official sources.
"This is a most important document," Senator Oddie said. "It promises elections in 1930 and forecasts American withdrawal from the Republic in 1936. It also refutes many false accusations which have been made against the American occupation, in very clear language."
Senator Oddie interpreted the message as a pledge by President Borno that he would retire in 1930 and would guarantee fair elections to provide for the succeeding government.
President Warns Seniors Against Sophistication In Baccalaureate
Warning the graduating class of Howard University against sophistication, President Mordecal W. Johnson delivered the sermon at the baccalaurate service in the gymnasium-armory building, last Sunday afternoon.
He advised them to do whole-heartedly whatever they are trained to do. This advice was contained in his text:
"And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance." (Colossians 3:23-24).
Dr. Johnson directed attention to the fact that the university had completed its work with each member of the graduating class, equipping them to minister to the needs of the world.
"But there is one thing the university cannot guarantee to have done," he said. "The university cannot guarantee in the case of any individual graduating from its halls that he will whole-heartedly do what he is trained to do," he stated.
He explained that there are two basic elements in any great life of intelligence. "One of those elements" he said, "is the intelligence itself and the other is the intangible thing which has to do with the weight a man puts behind his intelligence, the persistence with which he endures resistance to his intelligence in the particular circumstances and the power to hold on in spite of all obstacles." The university, he said, has prepared its graduates against diseases of the mind. "But there are also diseases of the spirit," he declared, "against which no university can prepare and in which the man of intelligence stands on fairly the same level as the man without advantage. Those are the diseases of the spirit—the disease in the thing we call a man's morale." "Morale, whole-heartedness, is a very difficult thing to lay hold on and keep in this world," he said. Dr. Johnson described certain symptoms of a broken morale. "Whenever a man believes that his work is only a means to an end," he said, "the disease has struck him."
Money Getting
Whenever a man makes his working hours a mere means to satisfy the hopes he entertains for an acquisitive life of money getting and spending on himself, the disease has him, he said.
Not even the State, he said, can produce morale except in times of war when it taks upon itself the war when it takes upon itself the mon man great.
He commended to the graduates "that sense of the weighty value of common every day existence" of the State in war times. He sug-

BALLOCH RETIRED BUT RETAINED
At the recent meeting of the board of trustees of Howard University, it was voted to retire Dean Edward A. Balloch, of the Medical School, who has been in continuous service at the school for 49 years. However, Dean Balloch will continue as acting dean until his successor is appointed. It is understood that it was the desire of Dean Balloch to complete 50 years of service before retiring. According to a ruling of the board of trustees however, all instructors upon reaching the age of 70 years must be retired. Under the present arrangement, Dean Balloch is placed on the retired list, but will have the opportunity of completing 50 years of service to the university. Dean Balloch graduated from the Howard University School of Medicine in 1879.

RUMOR 4 PROFS TO BE FIRED
Howard Teachers May Be Given Opportunity To Resign
STUDENTS PROTEST
"Hilltop" Article "Just Rumor" Brewed Trouble
The rumors of the dismissal of four college professors at Howard University, has aroused the indignation of the student body, according to prominent student leaders on the "Hill."
An unconfirmed report stated that the trustees at their regular meeting Tuesday approved the dismissals. However, it is stated that some of the dismissed men, if not all of them will be given an opportunity to resign.
The trouble grew out of an article published in the "Hilltop," a student publication, several weeks ago, under the title "Just Rumor." The article accused certain unnamed professors of undue familiality with girl students. The article was written by Walker H. Jordan, a student.
Jordan was summoned before a special faculty committee to account for his accusations. A student committee furnished the president and faculty with names of professors who were accused.

Garfield C. Thompson, lawyer
9 Hanover street, northwest, was indicted by the District grand jury last Thursday for removing fixtures in a house belonging to Miss Natalie E. Levy, a nurse, 2321 Ontario road, northwest.

According to witnesses before the grand jury, Thompson had purchased this property from Miss Levy but became behind in his monthly payments. The property was sold at public auction on February 4, 1927, it was testified, and Thompson became enraged and of the next day entered the house and tore down the fixtures.
The tenants were away at the time and when they returned home it was testified, water had run all over the home.
Miss Levy, Victor R. Daly and Mrs. Mary L. Stewart were witnesses before the grand jury.

THOUGHT GIVEN to the economic life of the race will pay big dividends and is now in order. One thought communicated and backed up by performance may start a revolution. What can you produce, manufacture, transport, exchange or sell for a profit?
THOSE RECEIVING DIPLOMAS should be told that those documents are merely a license to find a job, and by making good at it, to make the graduate eligible for his master's degree; that is why the ceremony is called "commencement."
AGES 20 TO 40 are the earning years. At that time it is better to have something back of what you put on, than it is to have something to put on your back. It is wiser to work for the good time you are going to have than to talk about the good time you have had; and its means better health to put guts into your job than to reverse the operation.
THE ROMANCE, OF NEGRO BUSINESS
Trading is a kind of coquery; anybody can sell a person what he wants, but it takes a special kind of mental action to make a person buy what he would not buy but for the salesman.
When we embarked in business, sellings pigs $^1$ feet, hot corn, crabs and fish, we simply brought to the homes of the people what was inconvenient for them to get; but with goods from the remote corners of the world, all canned on a shelf in the corner store, our business men are forced to create needs which they can and wish to satisfy—at a profit.
One reason why the native Americans have largely given up business and taken to finance, is because they are up against the inherited trading capacity of the foreigners. The south central section of Europe was a meeting places for races from the four corners of the world for so long that the people from that section are born with a trader's instinct.
Voice, humility, the ability to make the buyer feel that he is a special customer—coupled with unusual discretion, presentation of goods with condescension and with just enough suggestion to make the customer ask for "something better"—capping the whole transaction with the offering of more than the buyer feels that he has bargained for, all combine to give to business its elements of co-query.
From peddling, we graduated to barber shops and eating houses, then to undertaking parlors with chapels, and to drug stores with tile floors and modern soft drink bars. Some of our attempts at business are still awkward and unable to command the voice and submission which please the customer, who may always "go elsewhere."
The race patron is not yet married to race business, and it would be well to treat her accordingly. Life insurance, alone, has her sold, like the young lady who is inclined already toward a title or a degree.
Male patrons of business are half
sold by female salespeople, while
female shoppers meet salesmen
half way; there is coquery in
business.
THE HIGH SCHOOL CADETS
Few ceremonies—and certainly
no other city in the world offers
better comparison, except perhaps
the assembling of the young fasstisti in Rome—mean so much to
the Negro in America as does the annual competitive drill and regimental review of the cadets of our high schools.
The flower of the race, gathered from all quarters of the country, product of the American public school system and the selective process of racial life, and standing at the threshold of adult, male promise, offer themselves in exhibition and competition following a season of training and discipline in the infantry drill regulations of the United States Army. It is no wonder that we make of it almost a general holiday; it should be so treated. The occasion carries the potency of inspira-

tion for younger boys, and the assurance of capacity to the parents who have sacrificed to provide educational opportunity for their offspring.
The entire nation is interested in the display of receptivity of discipline and training which our boys make, because they are the offspring and descendants of those to whom Doctor Carter G. Woodson pays tribute in The Journal of Negro History for April, 1923, where he says:
"Every time a foreign foe has threatened this nation, the Negro with unswerving patriotism and undaunted courage has contributed his full quota of protection. With profound sincerity he has offered his services to his country; with voluntary devotion he has laid himself upon the altar. These Negro soldiers have written their names high upon the scroll of fame."
Every boy in the regiment of cadets feels that pride of achievement and that willingness to sacrifice so potent in establishing this branch of the school activities under the masterful and sheltering care of the late Major Arthur C. Brooks and the late Sergeant Major Christian A. Fleetwood, U.S.V.
Whereas one thousand youth of our schools compete now before the public under their own colonel and majors, hardly more than two score demonstrated the attractiveness and possibility of the proposition more than 35 years ago when they dressed themselves in odd-size uniforms of the District National Guard and drilled on a platform erected in our largest auditorium, the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church.
Out of that small beginning, the growth of the organization made possible trained militiamen and soldiers for the Spanish-American war, and heroes who gave the last full measure of devotion during the recent world conflict. In the person of their instructor, Captain Arthur C. Newman, the cadets have one who has passed from the beginning to the present moment, reflecting the intent, the ideals and the service a cadet may be called upon to perform, and showing how honorably it must be and may be done.
Like all worthy enterprises, the high school cadet organization was conceived in high purpose and its roll of honor has given it a record and a spiritual heritage that attach to every member.
Where they played, you play;
Where they served, you may.
The strong and great who've gone before
Were tried and proven true by war.
GANGS
A serious social problem arises from the existence of so-called gangs among our younger men. Lacking leadership along lines of useful and worthy expenditure of energy, many of our younger boys both in and out of school have organized themselves into groups to prey upon the goods, security and peace of the community.
What are some of the causes?
What are some of the remedies?
Since the public school system has control of boys from their sixth to their sixteenth years, we are forced to look to their practices for probable cause of the gang spirit. The presence of boys in classes with girls beyond the fourth grade or the tenth year, must modify the program of their schooling, and the presence of many women as their teachers during the period after ten years must provide an additional element of misdirection in the influences brought to play upon the boy.
Any casual observer may witness the presence of numbers of boys in the streets and alleys during the day and night, in city and suburbs, where the gathering into groups of boys of mixed ages lays the foundation for the formation of the gang.
Listening to the conversation of such groups of boys, reveals that their interest is stimulated by recital of exploit, involving escape from, or annoyance of, policemen. In some manner, the boys have established the idea that the police are their enemies and that prowess e nists in outwitting them.
The absence of play space in the crowded areas of our city causes the gathering of boys into loafing groups wherever they may be tolerated, and the natural leadership of some of the number finds admiring followers.

Of course, the social conditions which call conferences for social improvement in this District and neglect that element which comprises almost a fourth of the population, and the religious program which regards mischief as prompted by the spirit of the evil one, leave the boys to be influenced by any forces aiming to capitalize them, or to their own devices. At a recent meeting of a community center, the boys who were attracted by the presence of a light in a dark district and by the possible distribution of refreshments, made so noisy and rowdy a display, that one member refused to attend further meetings unless the center gave some attention to it, most annoying problem.
Trials in the police court and the United States courts frequently result in group convictions due to the gang spirit.
It is time to stop blinding ourselves to obvious facts as to the conditions among our boys resulting in recruits to criminality and its subsequent distress and disgrace, and to make some concerted attack upon the solution. We need more men who are less selfish and self-satisfied; branch Y.M.C.A.'s, in the northeast, southeast and southwest sections conducted for the boys of the street rather than for the boys of good homes; schools planned and operated to meet the needs of boys who are not attracted by the routine courses of study in mixed classes; men teachers who are first men and then trained to be teachers of boys; adequate provision for play spaces in the crowded sections of the city, before property values become prohibitive; and an arousal of the social conscience to its responsibility for the boys who are now lost to useful citizenship through conviction in the courts.
The presence of the gang is everybody's problem and everybody's responsibility. It may and should be corrected and redirected.
THE NEGRO AND PRESIDENT-
IAL NOMINEES
With the opening of the Republican National Convention next week in Kansas City, all thoughts naturally center on who the Republican presidential nominee will be. With the nomination of Governor Al Smith of New York by the Democrats three weeks hence, practically conceded by all but Tom Heflin, the Republicans offer for the moment the only political question for the Negro. When the G. O.P. nominee is trotted out, this question will practically be answered.
It is an admitted fact now that Al Smith has a popular appeal to a large number of Negro voters. This liking for Governor Smith is generally actuated by two things. First: the Negro is naturally sympathetic for any person who is apparently being persecuted. The attack on Governor Smith because of his religion, has won for him many friends among Negroes because they could sympathize with him in his hours of unjust persecution.
Second: The last eight years of Republican rule in the White House has not been exactly to the liking of thousands of Negroes throughout the land. To many of these, their political condition cannot be much worse under any circumstances, and therefore, as a protest against the indifference of the Republicans to these conditions, they are willing to support a progressive Democrat rather than support any more Republicans of the Harding-Coolidge type. To this group, a vote for Al Smith is a kick in the slats of the "Elephant."
The so-called wetness of Al Smith does not particularly appeal to the Negro voters. Whatever the Negro's views are on the liquor question, they have not as yet begun to affect his selection of presidential candidates. Those who like liquor, know that, no matter who wins, they will be able to at least get the "run of the still," so why worry over a little thing like that when there are so many economic question to be settled?
While there may be little outward manifestation in the way of loud protests there is an inward revolt brewing in the breasts of the Negroes of this country against the intolerable segregation that prevails everywhere, and all that is needed now to flame this intense feeling into an open insurrection against the Republicans, is a militant leader. Senator Cole Blease and Senator Thomas J. Heflin's verbosity during the closing weeks of the senate on the Negro question has simply added fuel to the Wames.
Whether this intense feeling will break through in the form of an
open revolt during the coming campaign, all depends on the candidates selected and the campaign methods used. If circumstances operate to produce the necessary leadership, this revolt will become a reality this summer.
As the Negro now faces the Republican convention, there stands only one candidate who has done anything to merit the race's support and that man is Herbert Hoover. Two acts of Herbert Hoover set him out pre-eminently in the eyes of the Negro.
First: The absolutely fair and impartial handling of the thousands of Negro flood sufferers in the Mississippi valley last year. Every Negro who worked in the flood district had nothing but praise for Mr. Hoover. Hundreds of incidents have been told of how he (Hoover) personally stopped prejudiced Southerners from exploiting the poor unfortunate refugees in the camps and even during the reconstruction.
Second: When the matter of segregation in the Department of Commerce over which Mr. Hoover presides was brought to his attention, and he was told how objectionable this was to Negroes, despite the fact that he was then an active candidate for the presidential nomination, and apparently knowing how such a move would affect the Southerners, he made an investigation and within a week after the matter had been called to his attention, he issued an order abolishing all forms of racial segregation and this furnished plenty of ammunition for Blease and Heflin and others to hurl against him. Nevertheless, despite these vile attacks made against him, Mr. Hoover has not flinched or retracted one bit. He evidently believes he has done what is right and is willing to stand by his decision.
Mr. Hoover is the only member of Mr. Coolidge's cabinet who has had the strength of character to abolish segregation. It is more than Mr. Coolidge himself was willing to do, for he has been importuned many times during his administration to issue the necessary executive order abolishing segregation, but he has refused. In fact, segregation has been extended a great deal under the Coolidge administration. Secretary Andrew Mellon of the Treasury refused to issue any order when the matter was brought to his attention. But Hoover? When he was shown that the practice was un-American, unChristian and against the spirit of American justice, he did not hesitate to abolish this vicious practice.
The masses of Negroes have been quick to realize that in Mr. Hoover, the race has apparently a real friend. He did not give them empty promises, but actually produced the desired results.
There is no other active or receptive candidate for the Republican nomination who can measure up to the pre-convention achievements of Mr. Hoover in so far a the Negro is concerned. Because of these facts, no other nominee could be sure of the Negro's vote next November.
While Al Smith appeals to many Negroes, there is a fear that, whatever his views on the Negro question may be personally, he cannot override the views of the majority of his party leaders who hail from the South. It is recalled that the late Woodrow Wilson held out hopes to Negroes, but when he reached the White House, he found the weight of his advisers more than he could overcome. On the other hand, Grover Cleveland—who was from New York, as is Al Smith—did not yield to the Vardamans and Tillmans of his time.
Whether Al Smith if elected would be a Cleveland or a Wilson is a question. However, if Hoover be the Republican nominee, there is every reason to believe that the great majority of Negro voters will be willing to give the old party another trial under his leadership. Hence as between Smith and Hoover, the Negroes will vote overwhelmingly for Hoover. Owing to the large numbers of Negroes now registered in the Middle West and East, this vote is formidable, and must be reckoned with by the candidates. It is in these very sections, too, where Al Smith is supposed to be popular.
As the Negro faces the conventions Herbert Hoover looms as his preference.

KIDDIES' CORNER
Dear Editor: Here is my sentence of at least ten words, each word containing double letters, written with pencil.
School ..... Grade .....
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.

Prizes for the Longest Double Letter Sentences
EARN TICKETS WHILE YOU ARE HAVING LOTS OF FUN
Remember—It is the best longest sentence that counts this week. Do not use more than THREE proper names in a sentence.
This week the contest will be different. You are to make sentences of MORE than ten words, each word having double letters in it. There is lots of fun for you. Tickets will be given for the Suburban Gardens to the writers of the sentences published on this page, next week.
Do not make two words of one word, such as "foot ball" (two words) for "football" (one word). Hyphenated words are permissible.
The editor of the Kiddies' Corner will give an admission ticket to Suburban Gardens for each sentence published.
All letters must be addressed to the Editor, "Kiddies' Corner." They must be in the Tribute office, U street. Northwest, not later than 8 p.m., Tuesday, June 12. Winners will be announced, Friday, June 15. You may send in as many sentences as you wish, providing that one coupon (as above) cut out of the Tribute, accompanies them. Cut out the blank above and show it to your friends. Suggest to them that if they write a good double letter sentence, that they this life at the home of his son in Philadelphia, last week.
Because this man fought with ideas expressed in words and backed up by a courage that met every challenge undaunted, he was not the spectacular leader whom the masses followed; but because of the rectitude of his social theory and is own innate superiority which refused to compromise with anything less than justice and right, he benefited thousands who never knew him.
Born just prior to the Civil War, he breathed into his Indian-African blood the heat and hatred of that conflict, and emerged as a youth into the Reconstruction period armed with the highest ideals and the capacity and courage to stand, to speak, to write and to fight for them.
His merit found for him a place on the editorial staff of the New York Sun under that master of American journalism, Charles A. Dana, and he closed his career as a contributor to the metropolitan journal with the largest circulation among the greatest variety of peoples, the New York World. It is a marvel of nature that his fiery temper and his prodigious labors did not sooner draw too heavily upon his slender physical resources, but he made up in fire and spirit what he lacked in strength, and offered us our finest example of blended mental and moral courage—a rare combination in any man of our times.
The American people have lost a rare and useful man; the colored people have lost an unrivalled leader without guile or selfish intent, and the newspaper fraternity has lost one who stood alone at the top as editor and publisher of newsprint which made public opinion and modified political and social operations. Even his enemies must mourn in respect for a worthy foeman; and he made enemies among those who loved darkness and injustice.
In the language of Elbert Hubbard: "He who speaks the truth and acts upon what he thinks and speaks, will find Golgotha not far ahead."
I may win tickets.
Do not think that your sentence will be worse than others that are submitted. Try to convince yourself that your sentence will be better, or, at least just as good as any others sent in.
Remember, Tribunites, that the sentences that are understood easiest are given preference in the awarding of prizes. Some of the sentences are very good, but they have to be read two or three times before the meaning is clear.
Don't write less than ten words.
Prize Winning Sentences

Don't Say Nigger
AN INTERESTING STORY
A story by Alfred Segal in the Cincinnati Post is one of a little girl whose skin is such as ours. It is worth reading, so we let Mr. Segal tell it in his own words:
"Catherine Washington was born out of luck. First of all, she was born with a dark skin which is regarded as an unhappy inheritance in a world that thinks merit is skin-deep. "Catherine Washington has been taught that in heaven all things will come out right and all will wear white wings, and the judging angels will not know the souls of black people from white ones.
"In the second place, she was born a cripple...."
"...affliction is her inheritance and hundreds of years ago she learned, to accept humbly all her destinies."
"She was born poor. To be born poor is not in itself bad luck when the skin is white; then there is hope for poverty and no limit to the height of grandeur to which poverty may rise by its own impulses. But the poverty of the dark skin is generally a poverty without much hope, and the ill of today must be also tomorrow, and in the children's tomorrows and the grandchildren's. Long ago Catherine Washington's people became resigned to hopelessness in existence.
"Thus it has always been in all their generations; but the other day Luck climbed the stairway to the third floor of the tenement house at 614 W. Fourth street, groping in the gloom for the door of Catherine Washington. It knocked.
"Catherine Washington?"
"I am Catherine Washington."
"I have a check for $100 for you. You won the prize."
"Catherine Washington saw the refulgent glory of success; she stood speechless in the presence of it; her underprivileged generations gazed, incredulous, through her eyes.
"It seems that Catherine Washington has faith in Cincinnati. When the Kroger Grocery & Baking Co. offered prizes for the best
essays on 'Why I Believe in Cincinnati,' she hastened to our testimony of her faith. She wrote: "I believe in Cincinnati because its citizens have so many opportunities."
She wrote many other things in her essay. She wrote, "All these make us feel the renewed faith which we have in our city."
"Eleven Thousand essays were submitted in the contest. When all these had been read, it was seen that Catherine Washington, age 16, pupil in the Morgan School, led all others in the junior group and had won first prize of $100 in that group.
"The disinherited child had sung best the glory and the beauty and the might and the riches of the city of which she may share only crumbs."
"Did I really win? she managed to say at length to Charles Shoenberger, advertising manager of Kroger's, who brought her the news. 'I? . . . I? . . .' "She spoke with the unbelieving voice of generations that had known only defeat. "The $100 check was placed in the bank for her after which Randall J. Condon, superintendent of schools, made a formal presentation to her of the bank book."

It applies to injuries suffered by employees on and after July 1, 1928.
FIRST — You MUST provide Compensation Insurance for all of your employees on or before July 1, 1928.
SECOND — Failure to do so may mean the payment of $1,000.00 fine, imprisonment — or both.

BROTHERHOOD MONEY
CAREFULLY HANDLED
NEW YORK, N.Y., June 4.—
According to A. Philip Randolph,
general organizer of the Brother-
hood of Sleeping Car Porters, the
Fidelity and Casualty Company of
New York, paid over to the Broth-
ezhood a check for $780 to cover
t'e money which D. J. Jones, local
secretary-treasurer of the Brother-
hood in Oakland, California, ab-
seonded with.
This is a concrete refutation of
the unfair and vicious rumors and
tales spread by Pullman propa-
ganda to the effect that the Broth.
erhood is squandering the porters’
money and that those who handle
the money are not bonded,
It is the policy of the Brother-
hood, according to Randolph, to
have all of the officers who handle
funds bonded by the Fidelity and
Casualty Bonding Company, Ran-
dalph continued that, “I myself am
bonded although I handle no
funds.” The Brotherhood’s ac-
counts are also handled by Stuart
Chase, a certified public accountant
of the Labor Bureau, Inc., 2 west
43rd street. “All of ‘the money of
the Brotherhood,” says Randolph,
“are scrupulously handled.”

WEEKLY SERMON
"THE KIND OF CHURCH JESUS WANTS"
By Rev. A. B. Fisher
"I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love."-Rev. 2:4.
I believe every one who is true to himself, when he goes to church, goes to hear a message from God, and it is the duty of the preacher to deliver a message of "Thus saith the Lord."
Thus saith the Lord unto the Angel of the church at Ephesus: "I know thy works, and thy labor, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil, and hath borne, and hath patience, and for my name's sake hast labored and hast not fainted.
"Nevertheless, I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love."
We are engaged in talking about Ephesus, the great metropolis of Asia, with her shrines, and goddess Diana and how the message was sent to her because of her coolness and her idol worship, but suppose we would look around in the Capital of the great nation, and its vicinity with its many churches and denominations, think of the vanity, the frivolity, the hypocrisy, and then think of Christ's message to the Church of Epheus. Oh, my friends, here is Ephesus right here! there are the goddesses right here, there are the temples of idols right here, but the spirit is saying to you, "I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left the first love."
I once heard a story of a woman and her husband that went as follows: As she came in she called him by name saying, "You don't love me any more, you are not affectionate, your kisses are cold, they chill me. You have left your first love." Thus answered the husband and said, "What more can I do? I have given you the most costly diamonds, rubies, silks, satins, oriental rugs, automobiles, and servants at your command; what more can I do?" Then arose the wife in an indignant manner, and said, "What care I for your diamonds, pearls, rubies, silks, satins, your oriental rugs, automobiles and servants; what care I for all those things which you mentioned? I care nothing. I would rather go back to rags and have your love."
Oh, Church of Christ, Jesus is saying to you just now, what care I for your society, for a church that caters to the whims and caprices of the noble, for a church with that aristocratic spirit, and is controlled by a group of hypocrites, I care nothing. I want a church that stands for love! What Jesus wants is not services, but service. He asks for your love, not your position, not merely your intellect, not merely your social standing; but your love in a life of service. Every life must stand its tests. Our Savior when questioning Peter, asked, "Peter, lovest thou me?" Peter answered, "Lord, thou knowest I love Thee." Jesus appointed him to render service, by saying, "feed my lams, feed my sheep, feed my flock." It is love that prompts one to devotion, anl devotion prompts one to render ser-

TO GIVE WOMEN TESTIMONIAL
Friday evening, June 15, at 8 o'clock, a testimonial will be given in honor of Miss Phoebe Miles and Mrs. Mattie Boston, at the People's Congregational Church. Judge James A. Cobb will be the speaker.

vice.
One of the greatest problems to be adjusted in our churches is the social problem. Ahl but, if we would only think of ourselves as we are, and be honest to our true selves, it would be the means, and the only means by which this problem will be solved,
The worse man you know, knows more truths than our best men practice. It is the social problem that is causing so many upheavals and hatreds, but, be it known friends, that hatred will die out of the hearts of the nations, when it dies in the hearts of the individuals. Then, and only then, will Christ be enthroned.
Jesus wants a church that stands for God, and God is love.

CHARLES SATCHEL MORRIS
IR. SPEAKS. HERE.
Speaking Monday afternoon before the Baptist Ministers' Conference of Greater Washington, Charles Satchell Morris, Jr., stressed the fact that scandal among clergymen is comparatively rare. That ministers generally held in such high esteem is in a large measure responsible for the featuring of cases in which they are involved. Morris maintained at the same time that preachers themselves must raise their standards morally, intellectually and spiritually.
The primary function of the minister he affirmed is not to be a political leader although he may on occasion function in this capacity, nor is it his primary mission to be a business champion although he may stimulate business, but his fundamental mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus and to point out the lowly Nazarese as the central figure of human history. Mr. Morris took a rap at those who have been severely criticizing in an adverse way the erection of magnificent churches by Negroes. People who put their money into the erection and purchase of great churches he asserted probably would put it into nothing else. These beautiful temples at least are an evidence that the black man is putting God first in his scheme of thinking. Any race that gives God first place the psychology of thinking cannot fail.
Mr. Morris who is the son of Dr. Charles Satchell Morris, Sr., pastor of the Fifth Street Baptist Church of Richmond, Virginia, was accorded a spontaneous ovation by the conference on his second appearance before them within a year. He is a graduate of the University of Chicago, a master of arts from Columbia University where he is studying for the Ph.D. He left for Virginia following his address here but will return to speak at the Mt. Jezreal Baptist Church next Sunday afternoon. He will also appear at the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church on Friday evening, June 29.

REV. MEDFORD TAKES MISSIONARY REINS

And never do a thing!

HUNTSVILLE TEAM WILL
BE DANGEROUS FOE
Cleney Lewis, captain of the
Huntsville Giants, third pisces in
the 1927 Tribune’ Baseball League
race, has. come forward, following
the appearance of articles, on va-
. other teams and suggests
that the Giants are to be contended
with before the flag for the 1928
season floats over any other team
as the champion.
“The Huntsville Giants,” Cap
Cleney asserts is “ready and
rarin.’” Dissension, the Maryland-
ers’ boss points out, caused a good
team in 1927 to bow before its
Hivals. “Good spirit and plenty of
fight, however, Mr. Lewis declares,
will cause a better team to come
through with flying colors.
Though the Hunts lost a con-
sistent and dangerous batsman in
Burgess, their 1927 first sacker, the
presence of the Hamilton broth-
ers, Eddie McCreig and Jeremiah
Maynard in their batting order
will always be a sore spot to op-
posing pitchers.
‘The Huntsville roster is as fol-
lows: Cleney Lewis, captain; Ar-
thur Nixon, Wesley Thomas,
George Hamilton, Ambrose Ham-
ilton, Jeremiah Maynard, Thomas
Wallace, Leroy Harrod,’ Charles
Simms, ‘Thomas Smarts, Richard
Ford, Edward MeCreig, Airthur
Green, Nicholas Hamilton, Charles
Hamilton, Leo Hamilton, Ruscell
Hamilton, Walter Hawkins, James
Randolph and Robert Hawkins.
Jungle Cats Handed
Scare by Tenleytown
The champion Colesville Lion
nine was handed quite a scare
when, only through its late rally
they were able to overcome and
barely nose out the scrappy Ten-
leytown A.C., last Sunday. The
score was 9-8.
The winners obtained 17 hits and
the losers 15.

Hillsdale Error Gives
Anacostia Verdict
ANACOSTIA, D. C—A_ most
costly error, stealing its way into
their defense in the last. half of
the ninth inning, resulted in the
defeat of the Hillsdale A. C., at
the hands of the Anacostia Ath-
letics here, last Sunday before a
crowd of ‘nearly 1500 spectators
who were thrilled from start to
finish of the 6-5 battle.
‘The game, one of the most, ex-
citing and hotly contested affairs
played on the local diamond to
date, was won in the final frame
when with the score 5-4 against
Anacostia and two men out, “Baby
Doll” Garrison, east end star out-
fielder, doubled. Ball then walked
and both advanced on a wild pitch,
In an attempt to nail Garrison at
third, Bartowe Black, stellar mitt-
man of the Hillsdale clan, over-
threw the base and allowed both

The thrill of the pulsing presses of a metropolitan newspaper the ever-watchful spirit that permeates the editorial room of a great daily and the ceaseless action that enlivens the life of a reporter, are elements of genuine screen entertainment in the Pathe-DeMille picture, "Let 'er go, Gallegher," which will be shown at the Howard Theatre, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Junior Coghlan is starred. Harrison Ford, Elinor Fair and Ivan Lebedef have prominent roles. Friday night, the regular midnight ramble will be held at 12:15
LINCOLN THEATRE
Billie Dove's latest starring vehicle, "The Yellow Lily" will be shown at the Lincoln Theatre Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, June 10, 11, and 12.
The story goes behind the scenes of royal life in Budapest, only a few years ago, and it mingles intimate romance with its exotic color and intrigue.
Clive Brook plays opposite Miss Dove in this First National Picture. Gustave von Seyfertier, Jane Winton, Nicholas Soussanin, Marc MacDermott, Bodil Rosing, Charles Puffy, Lucian Prival, Paul Vincenti, Yola d'Arril and John Westwood head a large supporting cast.

Another great show will be presented at the Republic Theatre all next week, beginning Sunday, June 10, at 3 p.m. Dolores Del Rio, the 'Charmaine' of "What Price Glory" will be shown in her latest picture, "The Gateway of the Moon." The exotic beauty of this great star triumphs again in this picture of primitive passions. "The Gateway of the Moon" is a romance of unusual beauty, taken against the background of a South American jungle. It is a tale of strange adventures, in which Miss Del Rio plays the part of a half caste India girl. Those who have previewed the picture, acclaim it as one of the finest photodramas of the year and probably the greatest of all the Del Rio's rolls. The story itself is said to contain every element of drama that goes toward making up a superlative entertainment.
Three Vitaphone acts will be shown for the entire ewake. Headlining are the Imperial Russian Cossacks, Moscow's favorite musicians. Music that surges and makes the blood run fast is played by this organization that will thrill Vitaphone audiences. All the members are competent musicians and singers.

Rounding out the program is the Vitaphone act entitled, "Under the Sea," featuring the Submarine Quartet. Come early for this great show. Matinee attendance is advised to avoid standing at night.
BROADWAY THEATRE
"The Street of Forgotten Women" will be shown at the Broadway Theatre all of next week. It is said to be one of the most sensational pictures ever brought to Washington. It shows a cross section of the underworld such as is familiar to the "habitues" only. Owing to the intimacy of the scenes the production will be shown to separate audiences only, while children under 16 will be barred at all times. "The Street of Forgotten Women" is a pictureurization of the true story of Grace Fleming and it is true to the story; it tells of a father who is bent to make money regardless of a daughter who is stage struck and falls in the toils of an unscrupulous "theatrical agent," of her falling in a house of shame the "Madame" of which was a tenant of her own father; of her fighting for her honor against odds and her ultimate rescue with a happy ending.
This is the first showing of "The Street of Forgotten Women" anywhere in Washington, and will be shown only at the Broadway Theatre on Sunday and Monday, to men only, while Tuesday and Wednesday will be for ladies only and unless there is a great demand for change of schedule, the balance of the week will be for ladies only in the matinee while men only will be admitted at night.

Grinstead, "Tumbling River" brings to life again the old west in all its glory. Dorothy Dwan and Wallace MacDonald are in the supporting cast.
The last chapter of "Mark of the Frog" will be shown on Wednesday and Thursday.

JUDGE RAPS AT COPS FOR ENTERING HOMES WITHOUT WARRANT
The practice of entering homes or places of residence without right or warrant by local policemen, received quite a slap in the face, when Judge Gus A. Schuldt dismissed Helen Ford, 1904 Second street, southwest, arrested on a statutory offense, last Monday morning.
The arrest was made by Policeman R. T. Fraser, of the Sixth Precinct.
The woman was arrested at 10 o'clock, Saturday night when the officer entered 333 Missouri avenue southwest, walked to the second floor, and finding Miss Ford in the same room with Delmar Bozell, a white marine, arrested
Judge Schuldt, upon hearing the report of Officer Fraser, immediately asked, "Did you have a warrant to justify your entering the premises?" The policeman replied in the negative. Judge Schuldt then asked if he had been admitted by any one or if he entered the house of his own accord. Fraser said no one had let him in. Judge Schuldt ordered the case dismissed with a reproachful glance in the direction of Fraser. The marine forfeited a collateral of $10.

MABEL JONES IN SECOND ANNUAL DANCE RECITAL
The Mabel Jones school of classic dancing had its second annual recital in the Armstrong Technical High School auditorium. last Friday evening. Miss Jones and her pupils were presented by the Beaux Arts Club under the auspices of the Cleveland Community Center. The recital revealed Miss Jones' talents. She conceived and arranged all the dances on the program which ranged from character to interpretive dancing including oriental, Egyptian and to toe ballet numbers. She also designed all the costumes and composed the music for two numbers, "Danse Chinoise," by Peggy Lucas, Jane Martin and Harriet Clark, and "The Secret," a group dance by Kellene Lewis, Violet Warfield, Alice Lewis, Jessie Grant, Leona Smith, Helen Sparks, Clayda Williams, Thelma Hamilton, Julia Smith, M. Burke, and Estralda Spratlin.
The juvenile numbers were particularly good. Little Miss Nadine Harris in "Her New French Bonnet," an interpretive dance, was very good. Harriet Pelham, Doris Carter, Meta Lewis and Therell Smith in "Trepak Danse," a Russian character study, were excellent. "Four Week Chicks," a character dance, by Camille Cottrell, Peggy Lucas, Jane Martin and Harriet Clark, aged between three and four years, was the "cutest" number on the program.
Of the older dancers, Miss Kellene Lewis excelled. Her solo toe ballet dance pleased
Others Were Good
Alice Lewis, Leona Smith, Thelma Hamilton, Julia Smith, Doris West, Evelyn Edmonston, Marion Hardwick, Carol Harris, Meta Lewis, Therell Smith, Harriet Pelham, Doris Carter, Violet Warfield, Yvonne Warner and Bessie Grant also were good.
Miss Jones herself rendered several numbers. The first was a French character dance. She also took part in a duo, "An Angel Triumphs Over Evil," an interpretive number, with Julia Smith. Her "Valse Brilliante," a toe ballet dance, was exceptional, as was also her music visualization, "Scherza Chaminade."
The program was in five parts. The first was French character dancing, the second and fourth was interpretive and character dancing, the third was toe ballet dancing, and the fifth was oriental, Egyptian and interpretive dancing.
Between parts there were long waits, making the program tiresome. It was after midnight before the finale. Toward the end the audience began to leave. A crowd of 1,400 witnessed the recital.

ARRINGTON WINS LONG-FOUGHT DAMAGE SUIT
A jury in Justice Stafford's court rendered a verdict on Tuesday in favor of Benjamin F. Arrington, defendant in a $10,000 damage suit brought by Mrs. Nannie M. Shepherd for alleged injuries received by her in 1922. The case has been before the courts for nearly six years. In 1922 Mrs. Shepherd filed suit against Arrington for $10,000 damages, alleging that she had sustained injuries in falling through the flooring of the back porch of premises 1348 Rittenhouse street, northwest, rented by her from the defendant. This suit was finally dismissed by the court in 1924 for want of prosecution.
In August, 1925, Mrs. Shepherd again brought suit, judgment being awarded her by default in March, 1928, when Mr. Arrington's lawyer, being out of the city, failed to appear in court. A motion to vacate the judgment was granted by the court and the case went to trial on its merits last Monday afternoon. The trial continued through Tuesday, when the jury, after an hour's deliberation, brought in a verdict in favor of Arrington. Attornies J. Franklin Wilson and Royal A. Hughes represented Mrs. Shepherd, while Attornies William E. Richardson and George W. Offutt appeared for Mr. Arrington.
Mr. Arrington has been prominent in U street business circles for over fifteen years is a prominent Mason, and is chairman of the auditing committee of 19th Street Baptist Church of which he is a member.

RUMOR 4 PROFESSORS TO LEAVE HOWARD
(Continued from page 1)
President Johnson, Monday night and appealed to him in behalf of the four professors who it is alleged are slated to go. Dr. Johnson, it is claimed, was dogmatic in his interview.
Unconfirmed rumors have it that the following professors have been or are to sever their relation with the university at the end of this school year: Dr. Lorenzo Dow Turner, professor of English; Moses Franklin Peters, an instructor in English; William Henry Jones, professor of sociology, and Albert Sydney Beckham, assistant professor in psychology.
Whether there are any specific charges against these men in connection with the charges brought by the students, could not be learned from an authoritative source. However, it is claimed that differences between faculty members is real reason for the dismissals of Professor Turner and Professor Peters. A local high school principal is also said to have been involved in the plan to get rid of Professor Turner.
Meanwhile, the students claim that professors whose conduct has been questionable, are continued in their positions with a clean bill of health.

CAR CLEANERS WANT TO ORGANIZE UNION
NEW YORK CITY.--While the Pullman Company has been making preparations to use the car cleaners to break the impending strike of Pullman porters, by the use of its yard employees, these very same car cleaners have been planning conferences to secure the services of A. Philip Randolph, general organizer, to organize them into a union.
There is wide-spread sentiment throughout the various districts among the car cleaners for an organization. They have many grievances that are serious and grave that cannot be corrected through the medium of the bankrupt employee representation plan. This is perhaps the most serious blow to the efforts of the company to break the strike of the porters.

YOUTH TO SERVE 60 DAYS FOR STEALING SUIT
Three out-of-town youths, ranging from 18 to 22 years of age were arraigned before Police Judge Schultz in U. S. Branch of Police Court, Tuesday week, charged with larceny. One of them plead guilty and in his testimony refused to implicate his two companions. He simply asked the mercy of the court.
James Thomas, a caddy at the Bannockburn Country Club, and a native of Atlanta, Ga., confessed to have stolen a suit from the tailor shop of J. R. Douglass (white) last week. This suit was one of a pressing job and was hanging on the rack when the three boys entered.
Police believed at first that Henry Hackett and Charles Crable, Thomas' companions, were the decoys in the boy's theft. Thomas, however, cleared them when he declared that Crable and Hackett had entered the shop with the honest intention of purchasing suits of clothes for themselves. They did not know, he testified, that when he left the place that he had taken a suit out with him. Thomas was sentenced to serve sixty days. Both Crable and Hackett came here from Brownsville, Pa., their home town. Crable is employed as general utility man at the Bannockburn Club, while Hackett is a caddy at the same place. They met Thomas, they said, about a year ago when he came, with his parents, to Pennsylvania.

Shaky Feeling
Severe Headaches
Miss Theresa M. Denning,
807 Nelson St., Knoxville,
Tenn. (picture above) says:
"I suffered quite a bit
with weakness, and at times
would have severe head-
aches and would have to go
to bed. My limbs seemed to
draw, and I felt so weak
and shaky. This was just
before I graduated, and I
didn't want to lose any time
in school. I was listless
and tired all the time.
"Cardui was recommended. After the first bottle I felt better, but I wasn't willing to quit then. I took another and there was a great difference in my feeling. I do not suffer now with headache—in fact, I feel well."
Try Cardui for your ills.

RANDOLPH SEEKS AN EMERGENCY BOARD
NEW YORK, June 2.—According to the latest news from the headquarters of the porters' union, A. Philip Randolph, general organizer, and Henry T. Hunt, counsel, will appear before the U.S. Mediation Board in the interest of securing the establishment of the Emergency Board. The Emergency Board is only established when the Mediation Board considers that a condition is fraught with danger and therefore recommends to the President of the Untied States the establishment of said Board. The final count of the strike ballots of Pullman porters show 6,013 affirmative votes in favor of the strike. In the opinion of the officials of the Brotherhood and its counsel, there is no way for the Board to avoid recommending the establishment of the Emergency Board.
According to experienced labor men, when sufficient employees in the transportation industry register their desire for a walk-out, unless their demands are conceded, this, in the meaning of the Railway Labor Act constitutes a threat of interruption of interstate commerce sufficient to justify the intervention of President Coolidge, with a view to maintaining peace in the industry. If the Mediation Board does not recommend the establishment of the Emergency Board, the Brotherhood will call a strike.
NASHVILLE, Tenn.—Stepping out into a new path of church and Sunday School development, the National Baptist Publishing Board, located in this city, has just issued a series of helps on the Inter-national Sunday school lessons. The twelve publications beginning with the picture lesson cards for the little tots and going through the entire curriculum of Sunday school order, have been so constructed, written and built from an organized Sunday school standpoint, that they are said to be in line with the farthest advanced of any religious group.
Y.W.C.A. NOTES
Girl Reserve Notes
The Girl Reserve secretary and a group of Girl Reserves took bread, sugar, candy and fruit to 125 women at the Home for the Aged last Saturday. A program of songs was given by the girls. Clubs will hold regular meetings the week of June 11 closing June 15 with a dance festival. Beginning the week of June 18 all girls are invited to come to the "Y" for recreation in the gym and on the lawn. The library offers some splendid books for leisure time. All are invited to use the reading room.
Mrs. Robert McGuire, chairman of the camp committee, finds that the camp is very much in need of a first class refrigerator of 150 pounds capacity. As so many are giving up refrigerators and ice boxes these days or the frigidaires, the members of the committee thought some one in the city might like to make this contribution to the camp.
Vacations
Miss Carolyn C. Armistead will leave Friday, June 8 for Chicago, where she will spend her vacation with parents and friends. Her sister Annie Mae Armistead, of New York City, who is visiting Washington, will accompany her.
HEARINGS TO START ON SALE-OF OFFICES
Senator Smith W. Brookhart,
Republican, of Iowa, chairman of
the subcommittee appointed to in-
vestigate the alleged sale of Federal
patronage, announced last
Friday that hearings will probably
start about June 15.
At the first meeting, Senator
Brookhart stated, such witnesses
as Senators William J. Harris and
Walter F. George, Democrats, of
To beautify hair naturally!
Georgia, who first asked for the investigation, will be heard. This meeting will probably be held in Atlanta. Benjamin Jefferson Davis, Georgia Republican national committeeman, will be subpenaed to testify before the investigating committee. Davis Denies Charge Senators Harris and George charge that postmasters in their state have been forced to contribute to the Republican party in Georgia in order to retain their offices. Mr. Davis denies this charge.
The investigation was demanded in the Senate after a Georgia postmaster shot and killed a post office clerk and then committed suicide. The Georgia Senators attributed his act to forced contributions to the Republican state organization. Mr. Davis said that the postmaster simply preferred death to imprisonment for embezzlement of Government funds. After the investigation of alleged patronage abuses in Georgia, the committee will make an inquiry into the handling of patronage in Tennessee, Senator Brookhart said. South Carolina will follow. Senator Brookhart promises to "get to the root of this evil if there is an evil."

PRISONER TRIES TO OUT-TALK COURT
Presiding Judge Gus A. Schuldt's Police Court was thrown into an uproar when William Carter, 765 Harvard street, threatened to outtalk His Honor, the court criers, bailiffs, police and complaining witnesses in an assault case for which he was being tried, last Monday morning.
Carter, who was arraigned on a charge of striking and knocking down his wife, Mrs. Beatrice C. Carter, a music teacher in the public schools, took the stand in his

He started talking and it is doubtful that he would have stopped during the remainder of that session had it not been for the strong arm of William F Joyce, colored bailiff, who either insisted that Carter stop testifying the way he wanted to and answer the questions of the judge. Carter insisted on talking, and was locked up. After he was returned to the lockup, Judge Schuldt ordered the case continued to Friday.
