The financial campaign of the Twelfth Street Branch Y.M.C.A., went "over the top," it was announced at the meeting of October 19, that the amount reported to date was $5,533.00, with more to come before the end of the month. Although the minimum campaign goal was oversubscribed in cash and pledges the campaign workers voted to extend the time for the collection of pledges to November 1, to permit contacts that had already been made to be taken care of. The additional money, it was explained, would be used to make some needed repairs in the Boys' Department and in the plumbing of the building. It is expected that when the final reports are made on November 1, the amount subscribed (Continued on page 5) Goes to Jail S Vengear Sentenced to 180-Day Term for Using Weapon on Kin MOTHER IN COURT Swearing vengeance, Bernard Wade 25 years old, of 921 8th street, southeast, returned to the prisoners' dock at Police Court, Tuesday to begin a 180- day term for assaulting his brother., Ignatius, on October 5. Ignatius, who is 5 years the seni- or of Bernard, told Judge John P. McMahon that Bernard cut him and then stabbed him under the heart following an argument over a rope which the two had been jumping. Erma Euell, a friend, also appeared as a witness. He said that Bernard had little or no provocation for the stabbing. Bernard's testimony was that he used the knife on his brother only after the latter had struck him. Swears Vengeance As he was being led back into the dock, following Judge McMahon's imposition of sentence, Bernard is said by Ignatius and a Fifth Precinct policeman to have uttered the remarks, "I'll get you get." After the case, Ignatius told his mother, who sat in the courtroom that it was against his will that he appeared for the arraignment. "The District Attorney made me," Ignatius declared.

Moorman in the lunch and poolroom business run under the name of Moorman and Keys, at No. 1819 Fourteenth street, northwest, was dismissed by Justice Gordon in equity court No. 2 last Monday. Mr. Keys sought to have a trust declared on the real estate owned by Mr. Moorman. The property is worth about $30,000. Mr. Keys claimed that Mr. Moorman bought the property in 1920 without giving him as his partner an opportunity to share in the purchase. The court found that Keys had an opportunity to join in the purchase but failed to take advantage of it. The partnership was dissolved. Mr. Moorman bought Key's interest and will continue to run the business. Attorneys Houston and Houston represented Mr. Moorman. THREE POLICEMEN TESTIFY IN SUIT Joseph W.

The testimonial idea germinated over six months ago in the south-west district and met with great enthusiasm. A benefit performance was held at the Rosalie Theatre, mass meetings were held, and a committee was appointed to arrange for the collection of subscriptions and the purchase of a suitable token for Captain Gibson.

The suit was brought by John Quincy Adams, Eben S. Doolittle, William C. J. Doolittle, Charles A. Doolittle, Erskine Clement, Jr., and Louise C. Clement, against the Colored Union Benevolent Association, George Emmons, Harry A. Clarke and Whitefield McKinlay, trustees. Wanted Land Back The plaintiffs claimed that the land was conveyed in trust for the benefit of the Colored Union Benevolent Association for the sole purpose of carrying out its object of providing a cemetery. When this object of the association was terminated, they contended, the land reverted to the heirs at law or next of kin of Mary Louisa Adams, granddaughter of John Quincy Adams and grandmother of the plaintiffs: No Restriction Justice Gordon found, however, that there was no restriction in the deed conveying the property to the association and dismissed the suit. Conveyed in 1870 On April 1, 1870, Charles F. Adams, the trustee of the estate of John Quincy Adams, conveyed the property to Gurdon Snowden, Henry Logan, Joseph Shorter, Anthony Hickman and Hampleton Martin, a relative of Dr. Hamilton S.

TEN Doc Charlie West’s Howard Uni- versity Bisons added their third win of the season to their 1928 griditon record, by taking a 7-0 verdict from Coach Harvey's More- house Tigers, at the Howard Sta- dium, here last Saturday. The Blue and White leven counted its touchdown in the first quarter, less than ten minutes af- ter the initial kickoff. The extra Point, was awarded when the entire forehouse line was adjudged off- side. From that point on the Big Maroon team held little in store in the manner of a threat. How- ard, on the other hand, on several occasions found itself within scor- ing range of the visiting defense. ‘The ball was actually carried over by Captain Ross, in the third quar- ter, but because’ of holding on the part of Bison linesmen, the score was disallowed and the local team was penalized 15 yards. The southern aggregation showed little or nothing. Their line thrusts were repeatedly smothered by the Bison forward wall, and their at- tempts at the flanks were equally as ineffective. Only Mosely and Jeffries, backfield aces of the Tig- ers, exhibited any real ability. The passing of the former and the lat- ter’s Kicking were the outstanding features in the Morehouse play. The entire Howard backfield stood out in the victory.

West- moreland, of the Orange and Blue team, the game Friday should bring out more real football, than has been witnessed by an audience at a scholastic game for a number of years. Rivalry between the two teams is intense, due largely to the fact that each is desirous of con- quering the team which tied. the ‘other for the 1927 title.

Their usually dependable infield, on numerous occasions, al- lowed ‘rollers, which in midseason would have been eaten up, to sift through their defense for hits. ‘This fact together with the un- usualy relentless attack the Shep- pardites waged with their woods, turned the tide against the A Classmen.

SHIELDS CO Main 10483 6704 WASHINGTON BALTIMORE ANNAPOLIS NEW WASHINGTON SHOWROOMS-1001 NEW YORK AVE. Manager Pinchback of the Broadway, is offering his patrons two extraordinary pictures next week. For three days, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, the feature production will be "The Big Parade," which according to Dorothy Herzog, in the New York Mirror, is "The greatest human document the silver sheet has ever flashed." The star in the picture is John Gilbert, supported by Renee Adoree and thousands of "Dough Boys." It took two years to make and cost over two million dollars and has been seen by over five million people. Wednesday and Thursday, that American classic, "Ramona," starring Delores Del Rio, with Wagner Baxter, Roland Drew, Vera Lewis, Michael Visaroff is shown. The story deals with the love of two men for one woman—and her marriage to both. Friday and Saturday, a double feature program. Esther Ralston in a thrilling mystery picture, filled with haunted houses, black cats, etc., called "Something Always Happens," and Ralph Lewis in "Crooks Can't Win" will be seen on the screen. JACK HOLT AT DUNBAR IN FIRST RUN SHOW JACK HOLT AT DUNBAR IN FIRST RUN SHOW Columbia Pictures presents Jack Holt in "The Warning," with Dorothy Revier and Norman Trevor, a George B. Zeitz production, at the Dumbar Theatre, Friday and Saturday, November 2 and 3. Intrigue, mystery, tense action, suspense and thrills follow one another in rapid succession in "The Warning." It is a vivid pictureization of a powerful story of the British "Silent Service" at work in the underworld of the Orient. Jack Holt has a two-fisted, red-blooded role that will hold you spellbound through its sheer dare-deviltry. Never before have you witnessed so thrilling a scene as that in which the hero—to save the girl he loves from a fate worse than death—destroys the wierd temple in the hills and its insidious devotees. "The Warning" is a thrill drama without a counterpart. This is the first time that this picture has been shown in Washington.

AILING CHILDREN After several years' experience in dealing with children who are continually ailing, I have become convinced that "ray" treatments are highly essential in obtaining the cure required. The Ultra-Violet rays are the kind I have reference to, and are particularly indicated in children with chronic bronchitis (colds), whether simple or tubercular. The prolonged cough that commonly follows measles and whooping-cough is materially improved by these "ray" exposures. It is also of considerable value in those children who, during inclement weather repeatedly become affected with coughs and colds, and who fail to respond to ordinary measures at the physician's command. It is interesting to note in many instances these patients are enabled to overcome a harassing cough, gain weight and return to a sound state of health. These are not the (Violet) rays so commonly seen everywhere by the public, but they are the rays produced by Mercuryy-Vapor through Quartz glass. W. S. Savoy, M.D. 1901 7th St. N.W. Tribune ads bring Results Tribune ads bring Results JOHN WILLIAMS ATTENDANCE (TRUANT) OFFICERS COMPLAIN A committee of Attendance Officers on behalf of the whole group have complained that the views expressed in these columns last week about truancy did not correctly give their side. First, they deny that they are truant officers, preferring the title "Attendance Officers." Second, they stated that because of the multiplicity of duties they must perform and with the few workers, it is impossible for them to adequately cover the city. Facts given by them show that the colored school divisions, which is one-third of the school attendance, furnishes three-fourths of the truancy. Despite these facts, until recently, the white schools divisions had seven attendance officers to five for the colored. Recently this situation has been somewhat remedied by the assigning of two more workers to the colored divisions. In addition to the handicap of the lack of sufficient officers to properly keep the work current, these attendance officers must do a large part of the work of charity welfare workers, the Board of Public Welfare, the Juvenile Protective Associations, the Instructive Visiting Nurse Society, and the Juvenile Court. So, instead of devoting all of their time to the work of school truancy, these seven ladies are burdened with outside duties, they assert. These facts present a situation to the citizens of the District of Columbia that should demand immediate consideration. These attendance officers work in the Department of School Attendance and Work Permits, which is under the supervision of the School Board. If it is true that the conditions are such as the attendance officers allege, the whole blame should rightfully be placed on the nine members who compose the School Board. Truancy is a problem that concerns all citizens of the District. Hence it is right and proper that these citizens should demand that a sufficient number of Attendance Officers be provided for at once so that the deplorable situation can be remedied. The fact that one-third of the schools are furnishing three-fourths of the truancy is proof sufficient to any one interested that there is something radically wrong with the school system or the school attendance enforcement law. On the Board of Education there are three colored members. Dr. Hayden Johnson, Mrs. Mary McNeill, and Rev. F. I. A. Bennett. The Negroes of the District of Columbia are holding these three board members responsible for this deplorable condition. As members of the board under whose supervision this matter comes, they should know of these problems. If they do not, then they are not alert enough to serve as representatives of the race on the board. If they do know them and have made no more effort to correct them than is now evident, they are guilty of gross and wilful neglect of duty. Whatever is necessary to be done to remedy this condition should be done immediately. If more workers are needed, get them. If more laws are needed, ask Congress to pass them. The members of the Board of Education cannot escape their responsibilities in this matter. As long as they knowingly permit such conditions to exist, they are jointly responsible for the criminals that this truant class produce. Truancy is a social and economic problem. There are many elements that enter into it. If the Board of Education feels that outside help is necessary in getting through the necessary legislation, they should so inform the public. Too long have the members of the board handled these problems as if they were theirs personally. Apparently to many members, the public has no interest that they are bound to consider. Truancy cannot any longer be ignored. RELIGIOUS COST AND CHURCHES In the current number of the Southwestern Christian Advocate, published in New Orleans, La., by the Methodist Book Concern, is an article discussing the "Financial Cost of Religion." We quote: "Our church is at a crisis in its finances. . . . The question of the financial cost of religion has a wider than denominational aspect. On all sides can be heard the general complaint that the church, as represented in all the denominations, requires too much money. They say the church is too expensive. . . . the vast multitude of people seldom give anything at all, or if they do give, do it in such small bits, it becomes necessary for the church to appeal often and insistent if its coffers are to contain anything at all with which to carry on." The above quotation from the article gives some of the points brought out by the writer. However, in the whole article, he fails to discuss one of the most serious problems affecting church finances. That is, that there are entirely too many churches per capita serving the Negro's spiritual needs. Having so many churches to support, and with limited finance to begin with, naturally the Sunday collections are small and inadequate. A count of the churches listed in the city directory of Washington reveals the information that there are 206 white churches listed of all denominations to 141 for Negroes. Although only twenty-five per cent of the city's population, the Negro has nearly fifty per cent of the churches. Out of 104 Baptist churches here, 80 are for colored. There are 30 Catholic churches for whites to 6 for colored; 4 Congregational for whites to 3 for colored; 40 Episcopal churches for whites, 9 for colored. There are 27 Methodist Episcopal churches for whites and 36 for colored, and so on down the list. The race is not financially able to maintain all of these places of worship in the manner and style present-day customs call for. Fewer churches with larger memberships would go a long way toward solving the church's financial problem. Larger memberships and larger collections, would also enable the churches to obtain better trained men for their pulpits. Church-goers must yet realize that not even yet is salvation free.

To the Editor of the Tribune: It is opportune to call to the attention of the public the fact that there was created, February, 1925, as one of the public school administrative bodies, a Department of School Attendance and Work Permits. The creation of the attendance officer in this department marked the passing of the old "truant officer." The correction of truancy among the children of the District is but a minor part of the constructive EDITORIAL & MAGAZINE PAGE work performed by these officers It is the attendance officer who deals with the great mass of people. It is the attendance officer who finds her way into the homes of those needy families where the pathway of life is anything but smooth. Again it is the attendance officer who is the first to try to find a way out of some family problem that is upsetting the life of the child. It is also the attendance officer who wins the confidence of the family and hears all their troubles. Her duties, comprising primarily the investigating and correction of all illegal absences, also embrace advice to parents, instruction toward proper home building and co-operative activity PENNINGS of local POETS (Writers of verse, serious or light, may send to this column their "brain children."

These officers are social workers, not vested with the power of arrest. There are in Divisions 10-18 thirty-eight part time classes which necessarily releases from school attendance, a large number of children between the hours of nine and three, who would be in school were there sufficient rooms to provide full time instruction. In addition, statistics show that there are more absences in these divisions with their one-third population than in divisions 1-9, with their two-thirds. In the handling of this difficult problem, to decrease this large percentage of absences, school officials are making strenuous efforts to bring about better co-operation between the home and school and closer supervision on the part of the parents. The greatest handicap in coping with this situation, is found in the small number of attendance officers, covering the entire District from boundary to boundary, with insufficient funds for transportation, and handling during any month many more cases than it is physically possible to properly adjust. The citizens of Washington SHOULD demand, not only sufficient class room space to provide full time instruction for all children of school age, but also an adequate number of attendance officers to enable them to perform their duties satisfactorily to themselves and with justice to the public. It might then be demonstrated that it is not quality lacking in the workers but quantity. The brightest hope for the future lies in the recommendation of the Bureau of Efficiency for additional officers and adequate means of transportation. ATTENDANCE OFFICERS OPPOSES DRIVES IN SCHOOLS Editor of the Tribune: Is it not high time that the Board of Education took cognizance of the constantly increasing pressure being brought to bear upon teachers and others connected with the public schools of this city in the interests of "drives" and similar types of money-raising campaigns conducted by agencies outside the school system? This pernicious activity has now reached the stage where every able "drive" manager, in organizing his campaign, first enlists the services of some one connected in a supervisory capacity with the public school system as a "team leader," "squad leader," "division leader," or some other kind of "leader," feeling assured that in return for the publicity which will be accorded him, the "leader" may be depended upon to exert upon those under his supervision whatever degree of pressure may be necessary to produce an imposing showing for his unit. As the desired results are always forthcoming, it would appear that the teachers, perhaps by reason of their superior powers of perception and analysis, instant THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1928 ADIPLOMAT IN THE CAPITAL Surely, if you have any sense of observation at all, you have noticed those perfectly senseless mechanical contraptions, which for no sound reason rattle up and down U street—the Collegiate flivvers. If you are any ways curious you have probably stopped where one of these trouble buggies were parked near the curb and tried to decipher the hieroglyphics scribbled in many colors on the sides. Deciphering these hieroglyphics you have probably seen the following: "The road to ruin," "Why girls leave home," "The answer to a flapper's prayer," "Another Gnash," "Step in and crawl out," "Ride at your own risk," and a thousand more perfectly nonsensical quotations. College boys when not at their studies, which is the greater part of their time, think up these, if thought is required, and paint them on the sides of the vehicle for public consumption. If you are an old fogie you probably lifted your hands in holy horror, or whatever kind of horror old fogies lift their hands in and asked, "What is the younger generation coming to?" If you asked this question you are merely repeating the question that old fogies asked back in 1890, when college boys from Howard used to ride bicycles on U street just like college boys from Howard ride in filivers on U street today. Bicycle riding was some pumpkin back in the days when college boys wore tight breeches, beaver hats and swallowtail coats, if what an oldtimer tells me is true. Florida avenue was called the boundary then. Many students boarded in private homes and it was often difficult to get in and out of the front hall at night when all of the boys parked their wheels for the night. The youth of that day were harassed by self appointed reformers just as the youth of today is. All sorts of rigid traffic regulations were enforced. Ministers looked with disdain upon this contraption of the devil and preached forceful sermons against the bicycle which was leading youth to destruction. The churches and Sunday schools were being emptied because boys and girls rode out in the country on these bicycles on a Sunday afternoon. The greatest of all curses was the invention of the "tandem," a two or three seated bicycle which permitted several to ride one behind the other. Dashing beaux fitted seats across the handle bars to take their sweethearts for a ride. In many cases, however, the girls had bicycles of their own. There was not much walking back from a ride in those days because the flapper in the case could generally beat the ancient sheik riding back to town. The lives of pedestrians were so endangered by these foolhardy riders who dashed up and down the street at the terrific sped of ten and fifteen miles an hour that vigorous laws were enforced to make Washington a safe place for jay walkers. When a young buck crashed into an old lady carrying a basket of clothes on her head it was quite a catastrophe indeed. Special patrols of bicycle policemen were put out to parade the street and protect the citizenry. Speeding was not called speeding in those days, but "scorching." The nominal fine for this offence was $5. Being caught out at night without a light was also a fineable offence. Parking problems were solved by racks that were placed at intervals along the curb. The bicycles were stuck in these racks and could be locked with a chain which the rider generally carried in his pocket. My informer recalls no instances of bootlegging, hijacking, and kidnapping which seem to be exclusive evils of the automobile age. These few facts are rehashed just to prove that there is nothing new under the sun. Yours until older generations find out what in the world younger generations are coming to. ly recognize the virtues of these many and sundry projects and loyally float: to render their measure of support. It is interesting to note the degree of unanimity with which the teachers respond to the gentle hints, wafted from "above," to the effect that they are expected to help this or that worthy cause. But it is not astonishing. It would be far more astonishing if they failed to rally 'round and support the person who holds, so far as they are concerned, the power of the High Justice, the Middle, and the Low. The present morale of the school system being what it is, each teacher realizes that the "welvet scabbard holds a sword of steel" and foolhardy, indeed, is the subordinate who has the temerity to withhold her contribution from one who, perhaps, may be required to judge the quality of her work, rate her ability as a teacher, criticize her methods of teaching, or who can, if he so chooses, make life miserable for her, or even (by devious methods) cause her to be separated from her job. It is folly to deny that teachers are coerced into contributing to these various projects. While the pressure which is brought to bear upon them is perhaps not as tangible as that exerted by a steamhammer or a glacier, it is just as Piano Tuning REPAIRING REBUILDING C. W.

The mere forbidding of this type of activity would have little effect, as the old game would go on, with everybody denying that the teachers are forced to make their donations. However, beneficial results might be obtained if the Board of Education saw fit to adopt an air-tight rule forbidding the acceptance by supervisory officials of positions as "drive leaders" in outside campaigns and projects, regardless of their nature, which involve the raising of money through public subscription.

SASSAFRAS UDDS EZ — A man suing for divorce in Los Angeles, declares his wife put him out and he could not get along without his mother-in-law. This is contrary to the rule most husbands cannot get along with their mother-in-law. If the situation this man finds himself in becomes general, it won't be long before young men who go accounting pay more attention to the girl's mother than they do to the girl. It is just as important for a prospective bridegroom to know whether or not her mother is a good housekeeper as it is for him to know his fiancee has pretty eyes. Beauty is only skin deep and if the girl's family plays such an important part in marital bliss, we will soon be saying love is only kin deen. There really isn't much use getting married nowadays, if a young man doesn't like his wife's folks. Either he has to go live with them or they will come live with him. One local man tried to keep his wife's people away by renting an apartment with only one bed. It didn't work because he had to sleep on the floor. As soon as the daughter hooks a man who makes good money her old man has a nervous breakdown and quits work. When a minister asked a bride the other day if she would take this man to be her lawful husband, her whole family answered, "I will" in chorus. The only trouble with falling in line with a girl who has a lot of little brothers is they grow up to be bothers-in-laws. A lot of in-laws are all right in their place but they never want to stay there. It's mighty tough when a young couple waste several years making love only to find that their parents don't like each other. Parents make it very pleasant for a young man as long as he is calling on their daughter, but as soon as the wedding is over they change their tactics. Since companionate marriage has been invented a man can stay with his folks and a girl can stay with hers. This arrangement is satisfactory to everybody, but the old folks. Families that have been warm friends for many generations fall out the minute two of the younger ones get married. Both think they get cheated on the deal and both are generally right. When a child is born both families claim that he inherited all his good traits from their side and all his bad ones from the other. At every wedding the opposing mother-in-laws try to outweep each other. . The fathers. sympathize with each other because they realize what a rotten break both of their children are getting. When two families start talking about each other they work on the principle that one good knock deserves another. When the minister asks the bride if she will obey her husband she says yes just to keep from making a scene. If a push comes to a shove all of her folks get on her side and help her push. Some wives don't worry about their husband sneaking out while they are away. They leave him to watch the children and tell the children to watch him.

I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race, and I will champion my Race wherever I may hear such slander. 4.

What I want to be is a brick layer. So please you and all the other people in the Tribune office say some prayers for me that I may succeed. My poem is: The King's Highway I saw her walking through the field. God's mother and her son, And every little flower-bell pealed To praise the Holy One. Oh, every little rose upturned To wave as He did pass, And every little sunbeam burned Its incense on the grass! Oh, every little piping bird Did trumpet from the tree, And every little lambkin heard, And danced, God's Lamb to see!

PART TIME CLASSES TO BE ABOLISH'D Opening of Garnet-Patterson School to Relieve Over Crowding PORTABLES TO GO The opening of the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School, November 1, will relieve parttime classes and overcrowding and reduce the number of portables in use in schools of the tenth to the thirteenth divisions, Eugene A. Clark, assistant superintendent of schools, said Tuesday. There are a total of 24 portables in use. Six are located at Garrison, three at Wilson, four at Cleveland, three at Harrison, one at Birney, two at Phloxs Vocational two at Burrville, and two at Syph. To Shift Phelps Further relief of conditions in the northwest section is contemplated by a shift of the Phelps Vocational school and the use of that school building for an elementary school. The administrative officers are considering the advisability of this shift. To Add 8 Rooms An eight-room addition to the Morgan school when completed will also afford relief. It will give that school a sixteen-room building with an assembly hall and gymnasium and will relieve conditions in the Garrison and the Harrison schools and eliminate the use of portables at these schools. New Gym Planned The estimates for appropriations for 1929 include items for a new Bates road school, a gymnasium and assembly hall for the Garrison school, a six-room addition to the Cromwell school, a new Giddings-Lincoln school to be constructed on the site adjoining the present Giddings school, and a new health school on the Bladensburg road. The portables in use at the Burrville school will be eliminated by an eight-room addition to be erected within the next eighteen months. Potables for Kindergarten School officials plan to put two portables in use in the vicinity of Twentieth and Rosedale streets, northeast, to care for small children who are in that rapidly growing section. They will eliminate congestion at the Lovejoy school and make it possible for children of the kindergarten and first and second grades to attend school without going a long distance.

ALUMNI SECRETARY HOWARD SPEAKER The men's assembly at Howard University was addressed on Friday morning by Alumni Secretary, George Wm. Cook. The speaker analyzed "Alma Mater" and urged the students to think of its meaning. He paid tribute to Hunter Brooks, the author, as a jolly good fellow, and yet in his serious moments was one who had a profound appreciation for Howard. Secretary Cook urged the students to cultivate a genuine Howard spirit that would live with them through the years. He told of his dedication to Howard University fifty-four years ago, when he determined that he would be a Howard man. He spoke of his acceptance of the position as Alumni Secretary as but an indication of his love for his Alma Mater and a desire to serve its welfare. Woman Flogged by Mississippi Hoodlums CLARKSDALE, Miss.—Called to the door of her home near midnight, Mrs. W. H.

Mrs. Bonner was able to call assistance from a neighbor shortly after the attack. The men stuffed rags in her mouth as a gag to prevent outcries. Her back and side were covered with bruises. Mrs. Bonner is a witness in a number of cases to be tried at the October term of court involving violation of liquor laws.

Howard, Republican National Committeeman from the State of Mississippi, to withdraw the names of several persons chosen at a convention called by him in April from sample ballots as presidential electors of the Hoover-Curtis faction on his ticket, was denied Wednesday by Secretary of State Walker Wood.

Of course we don't want any fatalities, but on the whole, I think you'll be tickled to death with it. To begin with it is a 16-page affair crammed with excellent features including plenty of pictures for the benefit of those busybodies who haven't much time to read. "Chocolate Baby," the feature serial is one of those sexy, fast moving stories of the restless, modern youth, but if you don't like this sort of thing there is no need to turn up your nose because just two pages over there is a good solemn weekly sermon. For Women Folks There is a helpful article for brand new brides that will help them hold the hearts of their husbies via the kitchen route. But if you happen to get your cookbooks mixed and he gets indigestion just turn a couple of pages and there is a column of medical advice to Moss, second lieutenant. Samuel] P.

Plans to Celebrate Seventy-fifth Anniversary Next Week OLDEST RACE BRANCH NOW 75-YEARS OLD Dr. John W. Davis to Deliver Principal Address at Monster Celebration The Twelfth Street Branch of the Young Men's Christian Association will celebrate its seventy-fifth anniversary, November 1, at a monster mass meeting to be held in the gymnasium of the building, 1816 Twelfth street, northwest, at 8 p.m. The principal speaker will be Dr. John W. Davis, president of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute. Special music has been arranged for the meeting. The Young Men's Christian Association in this country, which now has branches in practically every country of the world, was organized in Boston, Mass. In 1852, the association among white men in this city was established by William Chaucevuy Landon. The next year Anthony Bowen, a prominent colored citizen of this city and friend and fellow worker with Langdon in the Patent Office, organized the association work among colored men which is now known as the Twelfth Street Branch. Oldest in World Through its distinction of being the oldest colored Y.M.C.A. in the world, the local branch has played a very prominent part in the growth of the Association Movement. Dr. J. E. Moorland, retired Senior Secretary of the Colored Men's Department of the National Council of the Y.M.C.A., did local secretarial work here. R. P. Hamlin, formerly of the National Council and at present Tri-State Secretary of New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, also did secretarial work here. Other prominent men who have been executive secretaries in Washington are Lewis Johnson, now prominent attorney of Chicago; W. H. J. Beckett, physical director in the public schools of St. Louis, Mo.; Dr. John W. Davis, now president of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute and W. S. Stevenson, now manager of the local branch of the Supreme Life and Casualty Life Insurance Company of Ohio. LOCAL BOY AMONG CONTEST WINNERS William H.

Payne Wins Second Flight Honors Charles Honesty, brilliant, steady and unassuming, was hailed, last Sunday afternoon, as the king of amateur golfers of the District of Columbia for 1928. Honesty was crowned following his victory, by 5 up and 4 to play, over Jimmy Williams, erstwhile local baseball player. In the second flight, Everett Payne, 16-year-old son of Tom Payne, prominent local baseball umpire and all-round athlete, scored over Sam Lacy, sport editor of the Washington Tribune. Payne's victory was by a 3 and 2 margin. Ebenezer A. C. Matched With Roamers, Sunday The first of one of the outstanding games in what is expected to be an outstanding season in sand-lot football circles, will take place at Princess and Henry streets, Alexandria, Va. The crack Roamer A.C. gridders will act as hosts to the fast Ebenezer A.C. eleven of this city. Coach Willie Mack Murray, of the Alexandrians, maintains silence Williams, through his achievement of turning in the best medal score of the qualifying round, and later by winning decisively over Pleasant Goodwin, 1927 amateur champion, was generally conceded the title. Honesty, however, had a different way of feeling about it. The 1927 Citizens' Golf Club champion started out on his round with Williams, the aggressor. He was superb with his irons, and through deadly accuracy, for which Honesty when in form is noted, piled up a lead early. At the turn, the medalist found himself 5 down. This advantage Honesty held until the pair reached the fourteenth green where the match was decided. Golf clubs were given the winners and runners-up in each of the flights. HONEYMOONERS Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Archer, Jr., 1759 U street, northwest, received their friends, Sunday, from 5 to 8 p.m., in honor of Prof. and Mrs. Walter Fulford, of Norfolk, Va.

Prof. Fulford, a cousin of Mr. Archer, is principal of one of the public schools of Norfolk, and a very popular musician.

Coach Willie Mack Murray, of the Alexandrians, maintains silence in regard to how he feels about the outcome of the Sunday battle.

BUSINESS TALKS BY BUSINESS MEN TIRE FACTS Some idea of the immensity of the B. F. Goodrich Rubber Company may be gained from the amount of cotton cord required for one month's operations in manufacturing automobile tires. According to Beltram Barker, local Goodrich dealer, 27,930,000,000 yards of cord are used a month in manufacturing Goodrich tires. In terms of avoirdupois this staggering yardage of cord totals, 2,500,000 pounds. Mr. Barker stated, "Of course, this startling amount of cotton product does not represent all the cotton material used in the Goodrich plant. Millions of yards of fabric are used in the manufacture of belting, canvas shoes, protective footwear and thousands of other articles in which rubber and cotton are combined." 809 11th STREET, N. W.

Wife Threw Lye on Man; He Is Given 60 Days A domestic brawl, last Sunday night, resulted in the severe beating of Shirley Gross, and the equally severe burning from lye-water of John A. Gross, her husband, both of 227 V street, northwest. According to the wife, she could not explain what had prompted her husband to knock her down and kick her about the kitchen floor. Gross declared that he went home on the evening of the affair, and found his wife laying in the floor of their front room in a drunken stupor. He said he upbraided her for spending the money for whiskey. An argument ensued, and a climax was reached when his wife went into the kitchen, picked up a can of lye-water, and threw its contents on him. It was then, he declared that he attacked his wife. Gross exhibited scars of the face and forehead, and showed holes in his pants which he declared had been eaten by the lye. The court announced that there was little doubt but that the wife had thrown lye on the man, but he believed that the lye had been thrown after the husband's attack. He was sentenced to 60 days.

Rhines & GENERAL DIRECTORS AND EMBALM East S.W. F John T. Rhines & Co. Meeting PASSAGES OUOTED BY SPEAKER The Rev. C. L. Russell Says People Who Prefer Classics to Scriptures are Foolish Sophisticated college students who declare that they prefer to read the classics to the Bible do not know that Shakespeare plagiarized the Bible to write his dramas, the Rev. C. L. Russel, president of the Inter-denominational Ministers' Alliance, told members of the Baptist Ministers Conference at their weekly meeting at the Florida Avenue Baptist Church, Monday. The reason so many people are skeptics and fail to believe in the Bible is because they do not read it intelligently, he declared. Thoughts Were Stolen The speaker showed by illustrations that many of the basic plots of the Shakespearean writings were taken from the Bible stories. He praised Shakespeare as a diligent student of the Bible although he was not the scholar that many of the men of his day were. The secret of the immortality of Shakespeare's works, he said, is due to the fact that he did steal from the Bible. Phrases Identical Comparing a few of the phrases that are almost identical, Dr. Russell said that the passage found in the Bible, "We spend our years as a tale that is told," was the mother of Shakespeare's "Life is but a walking shadow, it is a tale that is told," found in MacBeth. Shakespeare's "Woe to the land that is governed by a child," found in King Richard is the same as "Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child," found in the Bible. "What is man that thou art mindful of him and the Son of Man that thou visitest him," is found in Psalms while Hamlet says, "What a piece of work is man?" A large crowd of both ministers and laymen heard Dr. Russell.

The topic for discussion was "Missionary Work Among the Mountaineers and in Liberia." Deaconess James of the Holy Cross Mission told of the work of the missionaries among the mountaineers, stating some of the problems of the work and its accomplishments. Liberian Bishop Speaks Dr. Anderson Phelps Stokes, Canon of Washington, acting as master of ceremonies, next introduced the Right Reverend T. Momolu Gardiner, Bishop of Liberia, a native African, and the son of a Mohammedan priest. Bishop Gardiner received his training for the most part under the Right Reverend Walter H. Overs, former Bishop of Liberia, and now a resident of New York City. The bishop spoke of the splendid support which the American church has accorded work in his native country, also the co-operation between the white and native missionaries in Liberia. NEGRO WAS DEMOTED, SAYS REV. E. C. SMITH "Look in Your Hand," was the subject of a lecture given by the Rev. E. C. Smith, pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Church, on Monday night. The Rev. Smith declared that Negroes must learn to take advantage of the opportunities at hand and not go about waiting for the unexpected to happen. God demotes those who fail to take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves, he said. The greatest example is that of the great Kingdom of Ethiopia, which once was the center of the world's civilization, but because the black man failed to take advantage of his opportunities the sceptor of power was wrested from him. BISHOP DISCOVERED UNKNOWN TRIBE The religious service on Sunday morning in the University Chapel was addressed by the Right Reverend Walter H. Overs, Ph. D., of New York City, former Missionary Bishop of Liberia. Bishop Overs was born in England and went to Nigeria in the early '90's, during which time he engaged in exploration work for two years for the British Government. There, he discovered the hitherto unknown tribe of Ijebus, comprising 250,000 people with a capital city of their own, containing more than 30,000 inhabitants. The Royal Geographical Society of London claims Bishop Overs as one of its members. He has written extensively on African topics, His work include monographs on African philology and the only geography and history now in print, of the Republic of Liberia.

KENKO Blinding Pain at Certain Times "I was very weak and thin and used to suffer with very severe headaches," says Miss Annie Mae Brown (1221 R. Whitaker St., Birmingham, Ala.) "I would be almost blind, the pain was so severe," she says. "This was when I was just entering the upper classes at school. I didn't want to get behind. I suffered with my back and sides, too. Someone suggested that my mother give me Cardui, for which I am very thankful. I took 6 bottles at that time, and was soon strong and well and did not have severe headaches or pains at certain periods. "Twice since I have been a grown woman I have taken Cardui, and it never failed to help me." CARDUI A Beneficial Tonic A.C.E.

Booze, National Republican Committeewoman from this state while she was attending a political meeting in Washington, D.C., was raised by Governor Theodore Bilbo in a speech here this week. The Republicans stepped into the political trap when George Akerson, assistant to Mr. Hoover, in a telegram to the governor declared that this charge was the most indecent of the campaign. Must 'Fess Up Bilbo in another telegram to Mr. Hoover says the following: "Now, I do not desire to be unfair to you in the slightest degree, but I want to ask you if you think it would be offensive to you or indecent, infamous or disgraceful for you to come in contact with or dance with a woman of the Negro race? "If, according to your ideas of social equality, you do not think it indecent to have it said of you that you danced with Mary Booze, then why am I being denounced for repeating the story that you had done so?" Mrs. Booze Speaks Mrs. Booze makes the following statement: "As for the statement that I danced with Mr. Hoover, that is ridiculous. As a matter of fact, I am upwards of 50 years of age, a consistent member of the Methodist church and do not dance. I have no idea whether Mr. Hoover dances or not."

Dr. Herbert Harris Out After Long Hiness Dr. Herbert W. Harris, prominent dentist local with offices at 1342 U street, northwest, has fully recovered from his recent and protracted illness and has resumed his practice. Dr. Harris, who had been confined at Curtis's Sanitarium since last April, underwent two serious operations during his illness. He was operated on, first on June 15 and later on August 4. Dr. Harris told Tribune reporters, Wednesday that although confinement is generally unpleasant, his many friends, through numerous greetings and tokens of remembrance had made his stay at the hospital extremely comfortable. BICYCLIST INJURED While riding a bicycle Waltan Woods, 465 N street, northwest, age 16, was injured, Saturday. He told hospital authorities that he was a student. HURT IN FIGHTT Enoch Craig, 2203 Champaign street, northwest, was cut about the head and face by a glass thrown during an alteration by William Johnson, of the same address, Saturday. POLICE PROBE CUTTING During an altercation, the cause of which was not divulged, Paul Valentine, 426 H street, northwest, was cut by Douglass Walker at the former's home, Saturday. Police are investigating. MAN INJURES SELE George Olfus, 609 Callen street, received a severe injury of the nose when a crank with which he was starting his car flew off and struck him in the face, Sunday. WANT MISSISSIPPI WHITE OXFORD, Miss.—"Keep Mississippi White" is the slogan offered E. M. White, state democratic chairman, by Phil Stone of Oxford, in a telegram. Mr. Stone was a delegate to the National Democratic Convention from the second Congressional district. UNDER the Dome of the CAPITOL Petty Negro politicains, which in a sense covers the whole lot, are loud in their denunciations of Govner Alfred Smith, Democratic candidate for President. Many of them are foolish enough to ape the bigotted white man in condemning him because he is a Catholic. All religions in America are so scissitful on the race question that he Negro has no particular cause to be bias either one way or the other. Christianity in America, in all its branches, creeds and sects is such like perpetual motion. The theories advanced are good, sound and logical, but the part about brotherly love can't be made to work. W. C. Martin, a local attorney, scares a speech made at the Old ncoln Hall here by Fredrick Douglass in which he declared that he was barred from every hotel in Cincinnati because of his color the dead of winter. Robert Ingersoll, famous advocate of atheism, opened his home and took him in where he remained roughout his stay in the city. Clarence Darrow, another pro- posed atheist, is the best friend of Negro has today. E. Haldeman- Juillus, who publishes many books, magazines and periodicals advocating atheism, is constantly fighting the battles of the Negro in his publications. His positive stands against lynching, discrimin- ation, segregation and other issues are more fearless and outspoken than those contained in any religious organ. The present election has brought about an unheard-of revolution among Negroes on the political party question. The old belief that the black man was married to the Republican Party and would remain so regardless of his treatment has been proven a myth. The Democratic Party, once looked upon with horror by men of color is now thought to be no worse than any other party. Many have changed their affiliations. The Negro is by nature a religious race. Many are charging that this has retarded rather than helped his progress. This is an economic revolution. Others charge that the church is more pronounced in his hatreds, segregations, and discriminations than worldly enterprises. Will the Negro undergo a religious change as he has a political change? Is the time far distant when the church like the Republicans will have to come clean on the race question to keep Negroes from bolting? Think ye on these things.

If applause is to be taken as a measurement, “Jazz Lips, Jr.,” a seven-year-old shaver with plenty of personality, leaves his adult competitors in the larch. Mamie Smith Mamie Smith, who is responsi- ble for the Blues craze, which is considerably on the wane, scored with the balcony fans, with two renditions that could mean almost anything your mind was dirty enough to think.

Silvers and Whiley, two elongat- ed youths, tap their way through With Jack Lytell I CHANGE MY MIND ABOUT “DEEP HARLEM” Last week reviewing “Deep Harlem,” Earl Dancer's new show, for the first time I waxed rather enthusiastic, but now that it has gone and I am no longer under the spell of its captivating melodies, no longer held by its dazzle, glamor and glitter I can meditate seriously and I must admit that most of my first impressions of the production have changed. By this we do not mean that the piece is not good entertainment. It is that and more, therein lies its most grievous fault. Being good entertainment, if it does land on Broadway, it will naturally draw big crowds. White crowds. I wonder what their reaction will be when they seé the history of the Negro traced from the grandeur, splendor, and potentiality of an Egyptian Kingdom to a gin mill in Harlem and this palmed off as the progress of the race, Harlem with its denegerates, its creepers, its pickpockets, its numbers kings, its bootleggers, its lewd women, its mass of shiftless, drifting rum soaked, flesh mad Negroes—here Mr. Dancer stops. Here he leaves us suspended, placing this as the zenith of the black man’s development in America. His failure would not be so far-reaching were it not fér the fact that all popular novels from the pens of contemporary writers have preached the same scrmon—The Gospel of Haflem.

Most Popular Artist Some idea of why Bill Robinson is popular with both audience and actors can be obtained from the following peep into his character printed in the New York Amster- dam News. His smile is infectious. He is a thorough showman. nd yet, be- hind the tinsel and make-believe, he has @ heart that outshines even ‘his remarkable tap-daneing, and there are some who concede him to be the greatest tap dancer in the world, Born in Poverty Born in poverty, Bill Robinson has learned from the struggles of life what encoyragement means. ie hasn’t forgotten a soul who ‘He hasn't forgotter 1 wh helped him along the path to star- dom, and now Bill Robinson is re- paying those early debts by help- ing others.

MIKE RILEY GIVES LIE TO NATHAN Local Boy Says N.Y. Writer's Account was Written from Prejudice WOMEN STILL NAKED If the edicts of the French Police against alleged indecent shows have been enforced, and the little town of Paris has begun a clean-up of its theatrical stage, it has been done "not so you'd notice it," writes Thornton "Mike" Riley, formerly of this city, now a dancer with one of the largest Paris revues, in a letter to this column early this week. Riley's letter came as a contradiction to certain statements, made by George Jean Nathan, white, famous New York critic, in an article in the Judge magazine, which was reprinted in the Tribune. According to Nathan, upon his return from Paris, the most notable feature of the famous French revues this year is their cleanliness. In not one of them, he says, are sketches approaching anything near the dirt you will find in certain Broadway shows. Further he stated: "The Paris revue impressaries have not only cleaned up their shows, following the edict of the Chief of Police to clean up the city generally, but have even gone the length of getting rid of the semi-naked "dinges" who use to give the customers a thrill by mingling with the white chorines." By "dinges" Nathan uses a Harlem slang term to refer to the Negro male dancers who have been a rage for several years because of their nude dances. Denies Statement Riley, in his letter, avers that as he is one of those "dinges" referred to in Nathan's article, performing twice daily with the Casino de Paris Revue, he is surely in a WRITES LOCAL DANCING BOY PERSONALITY PLUS THE BEST MAN IN THE WORLD FIFTY-NINE POUNDS of personality is squeezed into this mannish little suit worn by Sidney "Jazz Lips, Jr." Richardson, who with his mother, appears at the Howard this week. Though only seven, he can do anything the big dancers can do—and how! position to dispute the authenticity of the white critic's statements. The former Washington boy points out that the American, in his article, either exaggerated or misrepresented the actual truth, when he declared that Negro male dancers, appearing in the seminude, are gradually being exterminated. "Negro male dancing teams, such as mine, Wilkins and Riley, are equally as numerous as they ever have been," writes Riley. Is Local Boy Riley is 23 years old. He was born in this city, in the 1900 block of Thirteenth street, northwest, and spent his early life here. He was educated in the local public schools, and the Bordentown Military Institute. He learned to dance watching road show dancers who came to this city to perform ARD THE T. NORTHWEST k Begin.

The mother, Mrs. Anna Fritz, who has herself been a trouper for fourteen years, is now longing for the day when she and her seven-year-old son can settle down in a home of their own and not be forced to spend their time in Pullman cars as they have ever since he has been able to travel. Likes Washington When asked where she would like to settle down, Mrs. Fritz declared that she had decided on Washington because of its educational advantages. Her son is put through his lessons every day both by herself and by members of the cast, and for this reason they never run afoul of the child labor law which requires children to attend school. The boy has been found to be far in advance of many children his age. Prior to domestic difficulties Mrs. Fritz was the wife of "Jazz Lips" Richardson, New York comedian, who is the father of the child. The boy and his mother have been featured in vaudeville, with the Whitman Sisters, and Leonard Harper's productions.

The seeker of something different in motion pictures will gasp in amazement at the weirdness of this story laid in remote Tibet. Enthralling is the grace and charm of the dancing of Gilda Gray, first as the "Devil Virgin," of the cult of the Black Lamas, and again as the featured dancer in a troupe of nautch girls. Supplementary attractions to this great feature are well selected Vitaphone acts and an exclusive first run showing of International News on the day and date with downtown theatres. The ever-popular Milton Sills in his latest picture, "Burning Daylight," will be shown on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, October 31. November 1 and 2.

Pat Hartigan A mystery crook drama in which a policeman is slain during a daring bank robbers is portrayed in "State Street Sadie." Myrna Loy loyly enacts the role of Isobel, daughter of the slain bluecoat, and bent on unearthing the slayer. There is another person out to get the killer, Ralph Blake, just returned from a trip to South America to find that his derelict twin brother, Joe, is a sucide. The letter left by Joe gives Ralph a glimpse into the sinister lawless and criminal world, and when he learns that Joe is held responsible for the killing of the cop, Ralph decides to get the real culprit. A quick change and he is his twin brother, consorting with crooks and learning their secrets. Only one thing spoils the fun. Joe had good eyesight, while Ralph couldn't read a circus announcement on a barn without high-power spectacles. And thereby hangs the tale of "State Street Sadie." Beginning October 31, November 1 and 2, "Water Hole" will be the feature photoplay, starring Jack Holt and Nancy Carroll.
