Freedmen's Nurse Barred by N. Y. Hospital UNDER the Dome of the CAPITOL Dr. W. A. Evans, writing in a local paper, says that nitrate of silver can be used internally to cure ulcer of the stomach, but it is unpopular because it causes the skin to turn black. The average white man would rather take a chance retaining any ailment in which death is inevitable than to take a cure that will cause him to be classed as a Negro. Many solutions to the race prob-white churches cease to exist as lem have been offered. Amalgamation is a slow and tedious process requiring generations. Christianity will never be worth considering until Negro churches and separate units. As soon as science develops a solution the opposite to nitrate of silver that can be taken internally and turn Negroes white so they can enjoy all of the privileges of America unhampered, the problem will be solved. Race prejudice can be destroyed with a test tube. * * * * * A newspaper published in Washington, known as the "Fellowship Forum," a fraternal paper of the Masonic Order gives as its reason for opposing Gov. Alfred E. Smith of New York as candidate for President, that first he is a Catholic, and second he is backed by Tammany Hall. The South holds a grudge against Tammany Hall, the paper states, because that organization failed the Southern states when they faced the greatest calamity since the Civil War. When the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill came up Northern Democrats failed to prove loyal to the cause of the South. And the most atrocious federal enactment ever conceived was almost imposed on the Southland. This shows the alarm that the Southern states had for a measure that would force their citizen to act like civilized human beings instead of barbarian headhunters. The privilege to lynch, burn and hang defenceless Negroes is likened to a sacred right the retention of which is of paramount importance and worth fighting for. Washington Negroes who wish to make contributions to the campaign funds of the opposing candidates have been requested to do so at the headquarters of the parties. Mr. Smith has behind him the Raskob and DuPont millions, Mr. Hoover is backed by Wall street and big business. When elected they must take care of big money first. It would be a clever idea for local folk to keep their small change in their pockets. On the board of directors of the Lincoln Memorial Cemetery which was elected here recently there are five bankers. It has always been said that Negroes, with their love for pom and show, put too much money under the ground. In the case of Lincoln Cemetery there are enough bankers to care for these deposits but money placed in a vault draws no interest. There are 79 colored Baptist churches in Washington, five of which are called First Baptist. Sixteen are named after Mountains which include Nebo, Bethel, Cavalry, Airy, Carmel, Gilead, Horeh, Jerreel, Lebanon, Moriah, Olive, Paran, Pleasant, Sinai, Vernon, and Zion. There are two Seconds, one Third and one Tenth. Two Tahernacles and two Zions. Four are named after Saints Luke, Matthew, Phillip and John. There are two Antiochs and two Emanuels. There is one named Peace, one Friendly, one Friendship, one Morning Bright, and one Morning Star. CELEBRATE SIXTH YR. AT REID'S Reid's Corner, owned and operated by Graham B. Reid, a modern department store, will celebrate its sixth anniversary next week. The growth of this business, which is located at the corner of Eleventh and U streets, northwest, during the past six years, has been remarkable. Starting out as a violin maker, Mr. Reed saw the possibilities of a music store in his neighborhood. Closing his barber shop, which was located in the building he now owns, he started Reid's Music Store. He stocked it complete with music rolls, records, musical instruments and supplies of all kind. He continued to increase his business until larger quarters were necessary. He then secured the store next door to him and expanded. After developing his musical business to one of the largest in the city, he continued to expand and enlarge by securing the store at the corner of Eleventh and U streets and opened up a complete men's haberdashery. Later he purchased the building and continuing his expansion, occupied the last remaining store. In DAN CUPID OUTWITS LAW tVol. VIII, No. 19 MA DAN COLOR BARS NURSE FROM N.Y.HOSPIT'L N.A.A.C.P. Wages Fight on Discrimination Against Washington Woman at Sloane ACCEPTED APPLICATION A fight, growing out of the disbarment of Miss Gladys B. Catchings, a nurse at Freedmen's Hospital, from a position at the Sloane Maternity Hospital, New York, because she is colored, is being waged by the New York Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, it was announced early this week. Miss Catchings, in an interview with Tribune reporters, Thursday, declared that after her application for a post-graduate course had been accepted by authorities of the hospital and Columbia University, under whose jurisdiction the institution exists, she went to New York. It was not, however, until she had attended a class and reported for duty at the hospital, on August 1, that she was notified that she was ineligible for advancement in the course in Obstetrics, in which study she desires to specialize. This ineligibility, she said, was told by the hospital superintendent, was due to the color of her skin. CHARGES FAIL TO CONVICT WIFE Falls Down Stairs Trying to Escape Mate With Ice Pick, Claim AGREED TO DISAGREE A dislocated arm failed George M. Robinson in his attempt to prove that his estranged wife, Lillian Robinson, 1410 Fifth street, northwest, had assaulted and threatened him, when the latter was arraigned in police court, Monday. The evidence failed because a note written by him, and a message sent by him through the wife's father disproved the story that Mrs. Robinson had gone to visit the husband at his quarters for the purpose of harming him. Robinson told the court that his wife had come to him, last Saturday night asking him for money, and when he refused had taken an ice pick from her hand bag and threatened his life. He said that she rushed at him, and when he attempted to avoid her, he lost his footing and fell over the broom with which he was sweeping, down flight of stairs, and fractured his arm. Judge Schuldt warned her to stay away from the house and dismissed the charge. Attorney A. W. Scott represented Mrs. Robinson. Shot — Won't Tell Why Reporting that he was shot by a man known as John "Shorty" Edwards, John Gordon, 181 Reeves court, northwest, applied at Freedmen's Hospital, last Tuesday night, for treatment of a gunshot wound in the left hand. Gordon, who would give no reason that would explain the act, was given treatment by Dr. S. G. Stuard, of the hospital staff. He later went home. TAKE Prosecution of Youth May be Halted by Wedding People who go through life in a hurry, always in a hustle and bustle, seldom live as long as those who take life as it comes. All work and no play make Jack a dull boy, they say—We offer a solution. Death of Parent Removes Obstruction in Romance of Boy and Girl All the elements of romance and intrigue found in a fiction story were enacted in the lives of Howard Broadus, 18-year-old youth, and Bessie Bradley, 2300 block Eighth street, but ended in a signal victory for Dan Cupid when the couple were married after the wedding had been prevented by parental interference for several months. The affair first came to public attention when the parents of the young woman ordered the arrest of Broadus after an escape in which the two are said to have set up a love nest on L street, where they lived for sometime until traced by an aunt of the girl. Tell of Love In spite of their protestations of love and pleas to be permitted to marry, the parents of the tgirl refused and Broadus was incarcerated on a statutory charge. While the case was pending the father of the girl died and the mother consented to the marriage. In company with the father of the youth she obtained a license and the couple were united in marriage by the Rev. Robert A. Gaskins at the home of the bride's aunt, 213 T street, where they will make their home. Attorney Armond W. Scott, attorney for the youth, stated that he will ask the court to drop the case against the youth. TWO NEAR DEATH IN HIT-AND-RUN ACCIDENT TWO NEAR DEATH IN HIT-AND-RUN ACCIDENT Two men, said to be Charles Washington, 27 years old, of an address in Golden street, southwest, and William A. Gardner, 28 years old, of the 3400 block of Sherman avenue, northwest, are at Casualty Hospital in a critical condition as the result of injuries they received when struck by a hit-and-run driver, near Rosaryville, MD. The men were brought into the hospital by Prince Georges county policemen who reported that from the appearance of things at the scene of the accident, Washington and Gardner had been struck while they were in the act of changing a tire of an auto in which they had been riding. The men have been unable to give any details concerning themselves and no relatives could be located. Prof. Campbell May Succeed Wesley at Howard In the event that Dr. Charles Wesley should leave Howard University as head of the Department of History, Prof. Hosea Campbell, who has finished his residence requirement for the Ph. D. degree, has been asked to take the position. Prof. Campbell has been appointed dean and vice-president of Wilberforce University. Prof. Wesley has not divulged his plans for the future. BABY ASSAULTED BY UNKNOWN Two-year-old Dennis Smith, 225 W. Sixth street, northwest, while left unattended near his home was struck over the head with a blunt instrument in the hands of unknown parties. Sunday, the mother informed hospital authorities. Campaign Dope DR. DU BOIS SAYS NEGRO SHOULD VOTE NEITHER FOR SMITH NOR HOOVER NEW YORK (C.N.S.)—In an editorial in the October "Crisis," Dr. DuBois puts the kibosh on both the Republican and Democratic parties as enemies and deceivers of the Negro voters. Answering a correspondent in the South, who asked the doctor for the high lights on the two rotten parties, Du Bois says, in part: "Black men of the South should not vote for Herbert Hoover because he favors the Lily White domination of the Republican Party in the South; because he has always been silent as to lynching; because he has stood for the subjugation of Haiti; and because he has done nothing and advocated nothing toward the enforcement of the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments. "Negroes should not vote for Al Smith because in the twenty-five years of public service he has never recognized any Negro by appointment or by assenting to laws which Negroes wished enacted; because he is the running mate of an Arkansas Democrat who may succeed him to the Presidency; because he has made no protest against lynching and his political obligations to the South are such that the Negro voter cannot expect from him as President the slightest consideration of which the bourbon South does not approve. "Both Smith and Hoover represent in their parties and organization, organized wealth, industrial monopoly, and the exploitation of the poor." Mystic Couldn't Read Judge's Mind, 3 Years MAYS LANDING, N.J. (C.N. S.)—Failure to live up to his self-proclaimed reputation as "master of Egyptian and East Indian science, spiritual adviser, crystal reader and God-gifted seer" got James Davis three years in State prison. Davis, who went by the mystic cognomen of "Prof. Effing Okon," was up on charges of defrauding poor working people out of their money. Asked if he could read the judge's mind, he admitted he couldn't. The judge then revealed what was in his mind. It was a sentence of three years in jail for the "God-gifted seer." W. H. HASTIE, JR. GETS HIGH HONOR AT HARVARD Local Man Elected to Editorial Board of Harvard Law Review ONLY TWO IN HISTORY Word has been received here from Roscoe Pound, dean of the Harvard University law school, that William Henry Hastie, Jr., 608 Q street, northwest, has made the editorial board of the Harvard Law Review through his scholarship attainments in his first year. Membership on the editorial board of the Harvard Law Review is the highest honor that can come to an undergraduate in the Harvard Law School. A general A average is required for this honor, the only one that is granted to undergraduates in the law school. Cousin Also Elected Only two colored persons in the history of the Harvard Law school have become members of the editorial staff of the Harvard Law Review. Hastie is the second. The other is Charles H. Houston, his cousin, who made it in his third year. Their careers parallel. Both are graduates of the Dunbar High school where they served as officers in the cadet corps.

MILLIONAIRE KIDNAPPED BY BANDITS MILLIONAIRE KIDNAPPED BY BANDITS Casper Holstein, New York Clubman and Prominent Elk Held Prisoner LOTTERY WAR NEW YORK.—What is said to be the outgrowth of a lottery war between Harlem Barons resulted in the kidnapping of Casper Holstein, owner of the Turf Club, well known in fraternal circles and reputed to be worth a million, Thursday. Holstein was seized as he left the apartment of a friend at 225 West 146th street, shortly before midnight, Thursday. That he was kidnapped was not immediately known, but police were notified by Edna Davis, a friend, of 507 Lenox avenue, that Casper was absent from his neural haunts. Did Not Reach Apartment Shortly before midnight Thursday, Holstein telephoned wealthy Mrs. Gomez Whitfield, that he was coming to see her. At 11:55 he dismissed the chauffeur of his limousine in front of her apartment At No. 205 West 145th street, but she said he never reached the apartment. Holstein returned to his club, Monday none the worse for his experience. GOV. CLERK GAVE MATE ONLY $39 IN THREE MONTHS Charging her husband with desertion, Mrs. Landonia Gerome, 312 D street, southwest, filed suit last Monday in the District Supreme Court for a limited divorce from Eugene Gerome, a Government Employee, 1816 Twelfth street, northwest. In her bill of complaint filed through Attorney John J. O'Brien, Mrs. Gerome says her husband deserted her while they were living at 489 K street, southwest, May 1 last. Since his desertion, she charges, he has contributed only $39 toward her support. He is an employee of the Veterans Bureau, she says, and earns approximately $130 a month. She is not employed, she states, and has no income. Mr. and Mrs. Gerome were married November 9, 1919. 6 Holding Down Two Jobs is an easy matter for Mrs. Josephine Edwards, who besides teaching school in the local system, must manage a husband in the person of Dr. J.

Perry Howard's Prosecutor Finds Self in Hot Water of Justice Politics makes strange bedfellows, and Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt (white), Assistant U. S. Attorney General, who was most active in bringing about the undoing of Perry W. Howard, Special Assistant Attorney General, may find herself in similar straits due to her campaign activities. Loud cries of protest from all sections of the country have followed in the wake of Mrs. Willebrandt as she toured the West on a speaking campaign for the Republican party. Should Ask Resignation Sen. Edward L. Edwards (D,N.J.) said in a statement today that Mrs. Willebrandt "should be asked to resign by both President Coolidge and Attorney General Sargent." Charging that Mrs. Willebrandt was appealing to religious prejudice in her opposition to the candidacy of Al Smith, the Senator described her address before Ohio Methodists as "a disgrace to the department of which she is a part." Spoke Here Mrs. Willebrandt caused pandemonium to break loose in the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs when she, although uninvited, made a speech before that body at their national convention here in August.

LOUIS MEET The annual meeting of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History will take place in St. Louis the last week in October according to an announcement made by Dr. Carter G. Woodson, director, this week. At this meeting only special aspects of Negro life and history will be considered. The address and discussions at each session will be developed from a single topic as a unifying thought. Among the current questions to be discussed will be "The Negro Physician in the Community," "The Negro Lawyer in Action," "The Community-Background of the Negro School," "The Economic Status of the Negro," and "The Negro Youth in the Church." Such problems of the past as "The Negro and the Indian," "The Passing of the Free People of Color," "The Negro in Africa," and "The Influence of the Negro on Thought Abroad" will also be discussed.

EASY PRICE FIVE CENTS PATRON OF EAST'N STAR SUSPENDED Disagreement With Grand Master Ford Costs Frank D. McKinney His Office The turbulent affairs of the local Masonic order took a different aspect this week when Grand Master Charles P. Ford wielded the official axe and the scalp of Frank D. McKinney, patron of the Prince Hall Chapter, Order of Eastern Star and a member of Corinthian Lodge of Masons, was lost through suspension. According to unconfirmed reports in circulation in fraternal circles Mr. McKinney was temporarily suspended by the Grand Master following differences, the cause of which both refuse to divulge. The theory advanced by many is that the patron incurred the displeasure of the head of the fraternity by his criticism of the board of trustees of the Grand Lodge and by advocating the safeguarding of the treasury of the chapter of which he is patron. Lunch Unrest The Grand Master's action came as a distinct surprise to members of the Order, and has created widespread unrest and resentment, coming as it did at a time when financial masters connected with the new temple now being constructed at Tenth and U streets are in an admittedly delicate and critical condition. Grand Master Ford, when interviewed by telephone, declined to discuss the matter and refused to confirm or deny the report. BRUTAL COP GETS JAIL SENTENCE BRUTAL COP GETS JAIL SENTENCE Joseph H. Mullen, member of the Metropolitan Police force, who last week was recommended for dismissal by the new Police Trial Board, was given a suspended sentence when arraigned before Judge Robert E. Mattingly, in Police Court, Friday. Mullen was charged with an assault on Sedgwick Pierson, August 8. The Trial Board hearing and the subsequent arraignment grew out of this assault, together with a charge of intoxication. Mullen forfeited collateral on the charge of drunkenness, and after first demanding a jury trial for the assault case, changed to a plea of not guilty and was tried by the court. A suspended sentence of $100 or 60 days was imposed. Attorney Russell Kelly appeared for the accused. JOHN R. HAWKINS BACK FROM COAST John R. Hawkins, chairman of the colored voters division of the Republican national committee, returned to the city last Saturday morning after an absence of two weeks spent in Los Angeles, Cal., on account of the illness of his wife. He immediately resumed active charge of the campaign work being carried on from the headquarters in the Barr Building. Mr. Hawkins reported his wife, who underwent an operation, out of danger.

In other the end of the row, we are just beginning the arduous task of hoeing it. What will Negro educators do to meet the following problem which was also revealed by the investigators: “The latest available figures show that there are approximately | 48,000 Negro teachers in the United States, including those teaching in elementary schools, high schools and colleges. _ Of this number, 1,050 are teachers in institutions of higher learning and 46,950 in elementary and high schools. Upon ‘the latter rests the responsibility of educating 5,000,000 . Negro youth under the age of 19 years, a task far beyond : the capacities of such a small number. The lack of teachers, | the report points out, is serious.”? Here is a definite problem that must be faced. What ta the Negro himself do to help solve it? First: Practically all of these 5,000,000 youths are in [the staithern states where race prejudice and hatred cheat } and deprive the Negro parents of their rights as citizens and taxpayers in a free country. For instance, in Delaware, de- | spite its close proximity to such enlightened states‘as New y Jersey and Pennsylvania, there are only 297 Negro students [ attending preparatory schools, or approximately 12 high ; School students per 10,000 Negro inhabitants, while 5,410 - white students are receiving secondary education, or 26 per 1,000 population, In Maryland, 110 Negroes out of each | 10,000 Negro population are in preparatory schools as com- ' pared with 230 per 10,000 inhabitants for the whites. In Alabama, 40 out of every 10,000 Negroes are in such schools, while the ratio for the whites is 300 per 10,000 inhabitants. Kentucky presents a little better picture. Here we find 122 Negroes attending high schools in the state for each 10,000 inhabitants, as compared with 186 white students per 10,000 white population. However, Arkansas sinks to ‘a very low level. Here we find only 40 Negroes in school to each 10,000 population, while for the whites there are 230 for each 10,000. + How can the Negro overcome this serious educational problem? However illogical it may sound, one of tue first steps in this direction in the South would be to get rid of _ the entire slate of so-called leaders. They are more respon- sole for this situation than even the southern whites. them- | selves. To illustrate the point. In a certain southern town there ‘was an eighth-grade city school with an enrollment of over 300, As the Negro population in this town is larger than the white, some of the white members of the school board suggested the building of another school in the eastern sec- tion of the city to care for the large Negro population there. » Immediately the principal of the existing school protested and presented various reasons to substantiate his views, but }. the real reason was that he was jealous of his position in f the community and thought that if another. school was es- », tablished, the new principal might eclipse him. Therefore. he { thwarted the efforts of sympathetic whites to increase the ‘ school facilities of that city and today that new school has not been established despite its urgent need. {" Im another southern state the head of a certain state in. | Btitution has consistently fought the expansion ‘of state ‘ schools as he fears he will lose some of his “glory.” | Negro education in all cases have not been handicapped i in this manner, but it has in too many. With leaders who , will insist upon a full share of the school budget, much can | be done to remedy this bad situation. North Carolina is a good example of what can be accomplished when Negro lead: ‘ ers have the interest of their race at heart. There are more { well equipped high schools in North Carolina than practically | all the southern states put together. | The investigators of the Bureau of Education have pointed | out the faults. Will the Negro educators sit supinely: by and | wait for friends of the other race to initiate a remedy, 01 | will they arise to the occasion and by their courage prove that their training has not been in vain?

While there may be much rejoicing in the fact that enrollment in colleges in- creased 550 per cent in the last ten years, the state- ment of the investigators “that the immediate need of the race is more educa- tion, better education, and higher education,” must not be overlooked.

In Washington the Sabbath is a holiday occasion, ‘ashington's U street finds all sorts of goings on, along what we will call the Broadway, or bright light section of Northwest Wash- ington. Here instead of aday of rest. Sunday is.a day of pronounced activity. Instead of staying at home and reading its Sunday school lessons, Washington dresses up and steps out. Highly rouged and bepowdered girls trip along on french heels trying to attract the atten- tion of the auto sheiks who are constantly prowling up and down the avenue, hugging the. curb. __ Once approached the bobbed haired bandits-affect a look of injured pride and walk haughtily away with their powdered noses in the air. They’ look back to see if the occupants of the trouble buggy has sense enough to follow. Several blocks further on they accept the invitation and everybody seems happy. Sunday night movies are giving the churches quite a bit of compe- tition these days. There is but one solution of the church enterprises want to stay in business. They will have to install a Vitaphone and the ministers will have to preach their sermons through a loud speaker like the one Rufus Byars uses to make the announcements on in the Lincoln. Thoughts while strolling—Launderies along U street advertise that for a small extra charge you can get one day service on laundry. This is a wonderful help to the fellow who only has one shirt. It is not an actual fact that there is more bad hair in Washing- ton than anywhere else. This opinion probably grew out of the fact that more people in Washington go hatless and:more bad hair is exposed than elsewhere. University boys have a peculiar phycology of their own that makes them feel that they have a right to impose upon everybody, and the statement that “I am a college boy” covers a multitude of sins.. It doesn't. Numbers runners for policy kings brag that they earn from $8 to $15 per day. When one recalls that each player only plays from two to five cents a day some idea of the number of reople addicted to gambling can be obtained.

He has printed a pamphlet on the subject which he calls the “Gentle Art of Dining.” Here are a few excerpts. When the daring Prometheus stole the sacred fire from heaven, the gentle art of dining had commencement, transforming man from the poor creature whose only impulse had been to satisfy his animal craving for sustenance into a being of divine perception and power. He invented Cooking. ‘A true cook is a genius holding a rare power: That delectable alchemy which transforms the mere bread and meat of necessary exist- ence into a feast for the body and balm for the soul. We hear much about the influence of the mind on the body but little is said about the influence of the body on the mind, the spirit, which is‘much more important, since it may be said that a man is mostly what he eats; hence the importance of good food.

When it was first opened as a town, it was called “Wild Cat.” After it obtained proportions of a ‘real town, and when business and professional men established themselves, they called for a vote on changing the name from Wild Cat to Grayson. This name is for a prominent Creek Freedman fam- ily that sold the land-for the town site. Grayson is in the old Creek Na- tion, in Okmulgee county about fitty. miles from Muskogee, neat the Muskogee, Oklahoma and Gulf Railway. It is about a mile from the railroad. ‘The. first colored physician tc hang up his shingle in Grayson wa from Meharry Medical School in Nashville, | Tenn. His coming meant much to the little place-ant now there are several physicians, dentists and lawyers there. Grayson is on a beautiful prairie where one can see for miles in al directions. Very little cotton i raised in this section. ‘Small grait and stock-raising are the principal occupations. The oil leasers hav invaded this section and oil der rieks can be seen in the’ distanc from the town. 7 oe NEGRO ENCYCLOPEDIA RICHMOND. WITLTAM —x<o. cal soloist, was born in Liverpool, N.S.

C. POST OFFICE Discrimination Against Colored Clerks to Prevent Promotions, Charged HUNTER'S STATEMENT Charges of discrimination on account of color in annual efficiency ratings to prevent promotions are being made by a number of colored clerks in the city post office. The colored clerks claim that they were given ratings below 95 per cent, the requirement for eligibility for promotion to the grade of special clerk carrying with it an increase of $200 a year in pay. They say that 90 per cent of the colored clerks were given ratings of less than 95 per cent. Special Clerk Highest Grade Special clerk is the highest grade a colored employee may reach in the local post office, these clerks claim. For a white clerk, they say, promotion to the grade of special clerk simply means a stepping stone to higher grades, such as foreman and perhaps superintendent of mails. Disqualified. Claim Disquambren. They also charge that the local post office officials seek to keep a certain ratio between colored and white clerks and in order to maintain that proportion disqualified most of the colored clerks to make them inelegible for promotion. Denies Charges Assistant Postmaster W. Hunter Haycock denied these charges Tuesday. He explained that under the postal rules all employees have to be rated annually. The city post office officials found out as a general thing, he said, that all employees, white and colored, have been rated a little too high and there was a readjustment of ratings without regard to color. Whites Also Reduced He stated that there was a reduction in the ratings of both white and colored employees. "If the colored clerk's," he said, "will inquire among the whites, they will find out that a number of them had the same experience." Colored Only 23:5 Per Cent According to a memorandum furnished Postmaster W. M. Mooney by the appointment clerk, there is a total of 178 special clerks. Forty-two of them are colored. This is 23.4 per cent of the total. There is a total of 636 clerks in the automatic grades. Ninety-eight or 15.5 per cent are colored.

"POSSESSED OF DEVIL" MAN STARTS FIGHT A general free-for-all fight, in which a father, mother and daughter engaged a roomer, resulted in the arrest, last Sunday afternoon, of John M. Newman and Norman Grigsby, both of 120 H street, southwest. According to the testimony of Newman, his wife, Rosie Newman, and their daughter, Myrtle Royal, they had all returned from an automobile drive, and were sitting in the front room of their home when Grigsby became "possessed of the devil," and "started talking fight." He, the three of them declared, rushed at Mrs. Newman, threatening her, but failed to harm her because Mr. Newman got between them. Gribisby was ousted, but armed himself with a razor and returned. He broke open the rear door of the home and entered, only to be greeted with a blow on the head by an ash tray, held in the hands of the daughter, who, according to her testimony, then retired. The court sent the two men away believing that they had been punished sufficiently. FORESTVILLE MAN VICTIM OF HIT-RUN CAR A hit-and-run driver struck and knocked down Richard B.

KING, District Superintendent of the Alexandria District of the Washington Conference of the M.E. Church. TEXT—Bear ye one another’s burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ. For every man shall bear his own ‘burden.—Gal. 6:2,5. In this text we have what SEEMS TO BE a contradiction in ad- monition. In the second verse of this chapter, the apostle says: “BEAR YE ONE ANOTHER’S BURDENS and in the fifth verse with practically the same breath he says: “BUT EVERY MAN MUST BEAR HIS OWN BURDEN.” \ Bu t what are the real facts? The New Testament, Greek, from which we get our English translation has used two different Greek words to express “BURDEN.” The first word means THAT WHICH EXCEEDS THE STRENGTH, the capability of an. individual; while the second word translated ‘burden’ is taken from a Greek verb mean- ing TO LOAD a boat and is literally translated “load.” In fact in his New Testament in modern speech Dr. Richard Francis Weymouth translates these two verses as follows: “ALWAYS CARRY ONE AN- OTHER’S BURDENS and so obey the whole of Christ’s law.” “For EVERY MAN will have to carry HIS OWN LOAD.” Man is his OWN STAR; and the soul that can render an honest and a PERFECT MAN, commands all light, all influence, all fate; NOTH- ING to him falls early or too late. THE BURDEN of training the youth is a COMMUNITY RE- SPONSIBILITY as the child gets his impressions from every souree available. He, therefore, gets much from THE STREETS. These di- versifed observations enter his consciousness either TO’ ELEVATE x DEGRADE his life, consequently EVERY PERSON in a neighbor- ncod has a certain contribution to make toward the training of every ‘hiid. ° .

Not worth a ding. We really wouldn't like the looks of things around those same training corners if it wasn't for the fact that (for some reason or another) there are only two Alpha men out for the Howard team this year. Not worth a darl. We really wouldn't like to be among the aspirants for the grid squad ourselves, if by chance we happened to belong to either the Omega Psi Phi, Phi Beta Sigma, or Kappa Alpha Psi fraternities. Not worth a darn. And we really wouldn't like to be in Doc Charlie's place if, later on in the season, a few Alpha Phi Alpha men came out for the football team, and made it, and then Howard lost the Lincoln game—we really wouldn't. Not worth a —. For the first time in many years, the Howard team is headed by a group of men belonging to one and the same fraternal organization. Coach West, Assistant Coaches Miller and Martin, and Manager Conner are all members of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. On the face of things and in the face of past happenings, this looks bad. But in reality it is not so bad as it looks. There are only two members of the Alpha frat among the thirty-four men out for the team. And we might add here that this is indeed fortunate. Fate it seems, dealt West a good hand, when it thus decided to allow him to make his first year as coach of the Bison eleven free from the molestation of the ever-menacing "fraternalism" scandal. The only handicap which West faces, and must labor conscientiously to overcome, lies in the fact that there is something bred in the nature of human beings which influences antagonism towards an object or person in a predicament similar to the one in which West finds himself. It is human nature that will make any move West makes that might tend to put his fraternity or a frat "brother" in the limelight, appear biased. In the event that Pete Tyson, an Alpha man and a star end on the 1927 eleven, recovers from the injury he received when he broke his ankle (providentially perhaps for West), and returns in an attempt to help pull the Bison from the throes of a disastrous slump, and does so—heroically, it will be human nature which will make the wise birds turn up their noses and remark, "Well, you might know West was going to try to show him off, he's an Alpha man." If, by chance, one of the several new men who will doubtless make the team announces, sometime next winter, that he is to become a pledgee to the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity, it will be human nature that will make the wise birds flash a grin and sneeringly retaliate, "Huh, well I thought that when he made Charlie West's football team last fall." Therefore, it will behoove West to bend every effort toward giving Howard University the best available football team, regardless of whether those men on it belong to Pi Luva or Shu Flya fraternity or not. He must, if he desires to avoid a recurrence of the 1925 scandal when it was openly alleged that the Alpha men on the team of that year held their fraternity spirit above that to their school, go about his work with no inclination whatever toward partiality to frats, and above all he must turn a deaf ear toward that "human nature I-told-you-so stuff." He must use the advantages he has, and must combat the handicaps. And if he does right—well then we're with him all the way. Bisons' Diary This is the first of a series of articles which I have been engaged to write for The Washington Tribune. It's a lucky paper, to say the least, that was able to rope me back into this game of writing because back in my high school days when I was penning for my home town paper, The Morning Spittoon, I made up my mind that whenever I did get away from this business (if they ever let me) I would be a long time getting back into it. Now, however, as I have entered the Psychopathic Department here I know that the usual query that I might as well make a little spending change on the side. Of course know that the usual query that comes up in the minds of readers when a fellow says something about his wages, is "Wonder what he gets," but since I am going to answer that for you before you, for one, gets too inquisitive, it won't be necessary for you to worry over that. Well the ed. said he would pay me by the word, and let me tell you before, you read any further that this story as it appears here has just about one-third as many words as I at first wrote it in. (I always like to cut up, but these editors make you cut down.) Well I've been hired (if it may please you to know) for the purpose of keeping the readers of this journal in touch with the doings of the Howard football team. Of course I didn't wonder when the boss sent for me and told me what he wanted of me, because I knew that he had heard about my accomplishments out in Whiteapple, Miss., and I also knew that when he learned that I was in town, he said to hisself says he, I guess I better see 'f I can't get hold of old Iza cause he can give me some crackerjack ideas about how to run my paper as well as write articles on what the Howardites do during football training season." Well, I suppose I'd better get down to the business that the boss put me to. I don't happen to be out in Franklin County now, so I can't keep my readers up all night taping over my line of bunk. I cotta bring these Washington people something better than that. Anyway (I can't think of any better way to start) I reported her the first day of practice, last by Iza Rukey Saturday. When I went over to the big brick building which looks like if a strong wind came up it would blow into the river. They call it a reservoir up here, but that ain't nothing—we call them rivers down home, and we ain't so dumb as they think. Well, when I went in the—gymnazhun they called it—I was questioned and then handed a raggedy woolen shirt—it wasn't white—and some over stuffed knickers. And talking about heavy, I mean they were heavy, and the shoes—why they had a whole lot of pegs sticking in the bottom of a sole about as thick as the kind Josh Hankins used to put on when he was gettin' ready to walk to town of a Sunday afternoon. Why to tell you the truth, I don't see how in the world they expect me to be able to get out of anybody's way with all that old heavy stuff on. But I was quietly informed by a kinda nice speaking chap that I had to put them on if I wanted to play on his team. And right away, I says to myself, says, I knew that he must be Mr. Howard 'cause the team didn't belong to nobody else. Well right away I liked that chap, Howard, because he, I judged, was just about my age, and had such a nice musical voice. (But I wanted to become better, acquainted, so), what should I do but run up and ask him his first name, and his answer, given with that everlasting smile was, "My name is Theodus Conner, and I am manager of this football team; pray tell me yours."

(To be continued) HOWARD QUARTER TO CALL SIGNALS - - HIGH SCHOOLS OUT WEST ABOLISHES 'HUDDLE' IN H. U. SCRIMMAGES The initial practice scrimmage of the Howard University football team. Wednesday morning showed that the "huddle system" of calling signals, adopted by Louis L. Watson, former coach, and used by the Bison teams for the past three years, would be definitely abolished. Dr. Charles Wet, newly appointed grid mentor at the hilltop school, has taken his charges back to the older type of "number plays." By returning to the method of calling plays via numerals, Coach West has done away with a greater portion of the handicap to be faced this year by many of the elevens using the "huddle." The new rule governing the shift, which stresses a complete stop after a player or number of players changes position, is bound to affect all teams which have heretofore employed the "huddle," and ensuing shift, effectively. The return of Harry Payne, stellar second string quarterback; Ed Sayles, 160-pound end of the 1926 eleven; Ben Brown, hefty lineman, and Tom Hawkins, diminutive line star of last year's team, have materially brightened the Bison outlook. The line, at first expected to be the source of worry to Doc Charlie, will find much strength in Sayles, Brown and Hawkins. Jack Young, versatile backfield star for the past two years, is said to be in New York City. His TRIBUNE LEAGUE DOPE Following are the standings to date of the two classes in the 1928 Tribune Baseball League. Readers will observe that the teams in Class A have completed their schedules, and have been given credit for all forfeitures due them. The Anacostia Athletics, through a 6-3 win over the Hillsdale, A.C., last Sunday clinched the title in the race of that class. The winner of the Class B pennant has not been decided. Four teams, as can be seen by the averages, are still in the running for the gonfalon of that section. Due to the present enrollment of a greater number of teams, Class B is slower finishing its season, than its sister section. Class A Team W. L. Pct.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1928 Washington Tribune Leaders in Both Classes of Tribune League Lose Leaders in Both Classes of Tribune League Lose Record Crowd Sees Hillsdales Toppled at Monument Lot. Piedmonts Defeated by Pirates but Do Not Relinquish Lead On of the season's largest baseball crowds looked on, here last Sunday afternoon as the league leading Hillsdale nine took a tumble and were eigned out of first place by the scrapy Anacostia Athletics. The game was replete with thrills and marked by an exceptional exhibition of sportsmanship. The final score was 6-3. Bill Reed, Anacostia fast ball artist, toed the slab for the winners and displayed an assortment of curves together with a dazzling fast ball which completely bewildered the Hillsdale sluggers. Besides fanning 11 opponents, Reed granted only 4 scattered bingles. Jakle Levi, recently acquired curve ball manipulator of the Dales was Reed's opponent. The former Columbia Cub moundsmound found the going too rough to last the route. He retired in favor of Lanky Lymn as the Athletics came to bat for their eighth turn.

Life Readings One Dollar No Readings Given By Mall Apacostia-Hillsdale ```markdown ``` Pirates-Piedmonts Jazz Coleman's two-base hit in the tenth inning with a pair of his mates on the runways ahead of him broke up the game between Scoops Johnson's Washington Pirates and the league leading Piedmont A.C., here last Sunday. The final score was 11-8. From start to finish the game was a real contest, and the winner ever in doubt. The Buccaneers jumped into an early lead, only to be overhauled in the Piedmont's following frame, and later headed by a 3-run handicap when the leaders puched a trio of markers across the pan. Two runs in their half of the ninth knotted the count for the Pirate crew and forced the affair into overtime. Two Pirate bingles placed in front of Coleman's double, and the latter's clean steal of home halted the proceedings.** Totals... 46 16 11 Totals... 49 11 8 Pirates... 1 00 0 3 1 0 1 2 8-11 Piedmonts... 1 00 0 1 3 3 0 8-8 Two-base hits—Terry, Payne, Coleman.

Pinderhughes, at the Dunbar High School announced, Wednesday, that he is nursing a quota of sixty candidates for his 1928 Red and Black eleven.

Washington College of Pharmacy Facts (Continued from page 2) service to worthy young men and women in the years that are to come. The school is located in its own three-story brick building and has striven by untold sacrificing to meet the demands of this era of changes in our educational system, and we feel that race pride should send us help in this hour of need. Ten thousand dollars by March 16, 1929, is the slogan of the W.C.P. What will you, who read or hear of this do? Why the need for ten thousand dollars? The new pharmacy law, of the District of Columbia, which is now effective requires that an approved school of pharmacy must have: 1. Equipment valued to the amount of $100.00 for each student enrolled, and in no case less than $2,500.00. 2. Three full time professors, regularly employed to teach. 3. Three laboratories, equipped for teaching Chemistry, Pharmacy, Materia Medica, and allied branches. 4. The entire faculty shall be selected for their masterly ability to teach their chosen subjects. 5. And all other things which go to make up a 100 per cent College of Pharmacy. The District of Columbia Board of Pharmacy and a committee of the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy have commended our efforts and have given us written assurance of recognition, providing we measure up to these requirements within a year. (This must not be construed as contradictory to the above statement that the funds must be raised by March, 1929. The directors of the school will not spend any of the funds collected, until the entire amount has been secured; therefore a sufficient length of time is necessary to apportion the funds and make ```markdown ``` T Pluk ALWAYS THE FINE EASY AND P Humphrey Radiantfire heat is odorless, dustless, smokeless and healthful.

It will be shown exactly as it is now showing in New York and Los Angeles at $2. You will see and hear the booming and crash of airplanes in battle, you will hear the singing of the beautiful love theme of the picture called "Jeannine, I Dream of Lilac Time," and you will hear the most perfectly synchronized music score ever made for any picture. Colleen Moore plays her greatest part in "Lilac Time." and Gary Cooper, who was the aviator in "The Legion of the Condemned," plays the same kind of role in support of Miss Moore. Planes! Planes!

AFTER the Show -- an evening In an Oriental Atmosph BELTRAN BARKER High Brown Chorus of "Nif ties" Refused to Leave Harlem, Quit Shelton Brooks COMPANIES COMBINE The strike called by the chorus girls of the "Niftics of 1928" Company headed by Shelton Brooks, as the show finished an engagement at the Lafayette Theatre, New York, prior to coming to the Howard Theatre here, failed to stop the show which went over with a bang, Monday. By a peculiar coincidence the musical comedy company of Jenkins and Idaho had an idle week before opening in Pittsburgh, and they were rushed in to fill the gap. Refused to Leave The handpicked chorus of Harlem highbrows, which are always available in Gotham, demanded an extortionate salary to take the road and left the Nifties girlless. The principals came to Washington and here were joined by the Idaho troupe and the show was whipped into shape over night. By virtue of this, Washington received more talent combined in one show than it has seen for sometime as the combination brought together four first rank comedians, two blues artists, two teams of dancers and two of the stage's cleverest straight men and singers. Orchestra Graduates A special scene in the show caused the Howard Orchestra to be elevated from the pit to the stage where they worked in the show. For this occasion William H. Jones, the drummer, initiated his new $550 set of traps, which he claims is the finest in the city. DID YOU KNOW THAT CHARLIE AND LAWRENCE Charlie and Lawrence, the two dancing boys at the Howard Theatre this week, have been together for a year and have just completed an engagement at the Sunset Cabaret in Chicago. They appeared with "Ginger Snaps" and at the West End Cabaret, Asbury Park, N.J. They originated their dance routine by taking old steps and giving them a new twist. Their names are Charles Coston and Lawrence Wanzer. BERTHA IDAHO Mrs. Bertha Idaho, who sings the blues number in the cabaret scene at the Howard, is one of the latest Columbia artists and has just recorded "You've Got the Right Eye, but You're Peeping in the Wrong Key Hole," and "Grave Yard Love."

He has played the Mutual Burlesque Wheel with Joe Lovett's "Giggle Giggle Co."

H. Dudley, prominent in the theatrical circles and an experienced showman, sounded a vital chord in the affairs of the newly organized Majestic Theatrical Circuit when he pointed out that a colored man should be given supervisory position to enhance the appeal to race audiences, basing his contention on the fact that no white man knows colored audiences like the Negro showman. Mr. Dudley's suggestion refers mainly to the workings of the home office in New York. The management of the shows on the road are more sadly in need of just such a change. Shows that for years have been managed by race showmen, when booked out the Goldberg Offices must now drag along a figure head whose expense merely deprives the actors of pay that rightfully belongs to them. The real management of the show, the staging, and producing and most of the business is conducted by the head of the company as of old, because the supposed white manager is in most cases grossly ignorant, both in the show business and along other lines. After the transportation has been cared for and the show is landed in the theatre, the manager finds a lot of idle time on his hands for the remainder of the week which he utilizes in a large degree in the dressing rooms of comely brown skinned chorines. As a result the newspaper reviewer is requested to give special mention to a certain chorus girl whose only claim for consideration is a pair of shapely limbs which seem to get in her way constantly, but no doubt appeal to the manager. Mr. Goldberg needs to look to such managers of color as Mabel Whitman of the Whitman Sisters, Henry Drake of Drake and Walker, and numerous others to learn that a colored company can be managed with success by Negroes who are assets as well as liabilities to the company.—J.L. And the greatest thrill in the movies—the air battle between "The Red Ace" and "The Dawn Patrol." Yet it is only one of the features that makes "Lilac Time" the most sensational screen production the screen has ever given you.

Wednesday and Thursday, Greta Carbo will be shown in that sensational picture, "The Divine Woman." For Friday and Saturday, another double feature program, with Lon Chaney in "London After Midnight," and Joseph P. Kennedy's whirlwind of mirth, "Alex the Great," will be presented.

This picture is undoubtedly one of the most thrilling underworld stories that has ever been screened. The title role is played by Victor Mekhlen, the two-fisted rough and tumble Captain Flagg of "What Price Glory." "The River Pirate" revolves around the dramatic experiences of a youth who "does a stretch" in a reform school, where he is officially taught sail-making, but learns the inside workings of crookdom as well. His instructor, who is paroled, helps the boy to escape and they team in piracy on a large scale. October 4 and 5, on the screen, you will see "After the Storm," featuring Hobart Posworth. MUSICAL DIRECTOR BACK Director J. Henry Lewis, of the Amphibians, has returned to the city after an extended auto trip and a vacation on his farm in Virginia. Mr. Lewis contemplates radical changes in the conduct of the Amphibians during the coming season, among them being a singing and instrumental quartet, who will present the latest song hits and other novelties, and the club will be greatly increased. He also has in contemplation the presentation of several light operas by a well-trained mixed chorus. Mr. Lewis' efforts along that line are favorably remembered by those who recall the production of the Pirates of Penzance, the Trial by Jury, and other similar works. MISSES BIG CHANCE Johnnie Mann, a local dancing boy, who has been seen here with several of the Irvin C.

Clive Brook, Star of the "Under-World" Majestic Circuit Has Missing Link, Says Dudley- - 'Lilac Time' at Repuclic MISSING LINK IN MAJ'STIC CIRCUIT SAYS DUDLEY Need of Colored Supervisor of Productions Pointed Out by Local Showman NAMES MILLER The failure of the Majestic Theatrical Circuit to secure the services of a colored man to act as general supervisor, is said by S. H. Dudley, prominent local showman, to be the missing link in the circuit, in a statement issued to the press this week. Mr. Dudley names Irvin C. Miller as the man best fitted for this position and says further: "I don't mean that this position should be filled by a man that is required to produce, but to supervise the production after it is produced, and Mr. Miller knows the theatre. The actors and the conditions as well, if not better than I, for that reason I recommend him. Allow me to say that I was offered the position and officiated for one week in New York, but my other enterprises would not permit me to continue. At that I was willing to make the the sacrifice for the good of the colored show business." Few Good Showmen I must give A. E. Lichtman, manager of the chain of the theaters in Washington, credit for securing the services of Rufus G. Byars, colored, to act as supervisor of his enterprises. It was a great move and is proving a success. We have a very few real theatrically trained men in the theatre business, white or black; if you will excuse me I will mention all that I know that can really qualify when the acid test comes. John T. Gibson of Philadelphia, Pa.; Buddie Austin of Jacksonville, Fla.; W. S. Scales of Winston-Salem, N.C.

The trouble with Washington show goers, he said, is that they demand a dollar show for a dime and it can't be done. FRATERNAL NEWS Monday—Felix Lodge, Prince Hall Chapter, Eastern Star.

Another feature of this picture will be the showing of the night parade. This Elks performance will be given at the Lincoln Theatre beginning the week of October 28.

The lad was taken to his home by the driver, and it was learned there that he was suffering more from shock than from injury. MAN, WIFE TAKEN IN POLICY GAME RAID BY POLICE Restaurant Owner Admits Being Numbers Bookie for 10 Weeks PAID 600 TO 1 The Police Department Vice Squad, headed by Sergt. O. J. Lett- terman, descended on 1910 Eighte- threet street, northwest, where an alleged policy brokerage has been operating for the past ten weeks, and arrested John Dykes, 34 years old, and his wife, Grace Dykes, the alleged "writers." Dykes and his wife were found in a room in rear of their restaur- ant on the first floor, the husband, it is charged, being engaged in go- ing over sheets showing the result of his day's work. It is alleged that the game was based on numbers of the Federal Reserve Bank, two from the clear- ance sheet and one from the bal- ance sheet. Yesterday's number was 869, and winners, if any, it is stated, are paid 600 for 1. Dykes, is said by the police to have admitted operating the game for a white man the past 10 weeks, receiving 20 per cent of the mon-y collected. Money and sheets were seized, police reported, and Dykes and his wife were charged with setting up a gaming table.
