This cute little chorine, Florence Wilson, is one of the reasons for the Negro migration to Harlem. Billie Cain. Such beauty! Those eyes! And how! STRUGGLING HEARTS Billie Cain. Such beauty! Chocolate Kid's apartment building, is confronted by him. Mutual fear and surprise bring out the fact that the Kid is also in hiding. He thinks Ott has double-crossed him and tells Zola that it was the gangster's intention to have double-crossed her and Barry. They hear a commotion at the foot of the elevator shaft. Now go on with the story— HE elevator stopped with a lurch. The door was shot back angrily and the most nondescript individual stepped out that the Chocolate Kid had seen in many a day. It was old John Belling, but what a different person to the forlorn old wreck that had been given his freedom from the city bastile a few days earlier. John Belling was drunk. He --- Interesting, Entertaining and Instructive BEN DAVIS, JR. Feature Editor WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE: Big Ott, gang leader and crook, has killed a man in a bank robbery. David Conway, a country youth, is in prison charged with the crime. Zola, beautiful and mysterious cabaret dancer with whom Big Ott is enamored, seeks to save David. Ott has her kidnapped by the Chocolate Kid, an aviator. Taken to The Nest, a cabin in the forest owned by Anson Bledsoe, hypocritical townman and enemy of David's, she escapes. Barry Dwane, a young, good-hearted weakling under the domination of Ott, lends her aid. The Chocolate Kid, who kidnapped her, returns and helps her, with the warning that she must no longer try to help David. She ignores the warning. Going to David's home, she meets his mother, with whom she enters into a plot to try to save the son. While hidden in the room that had been David's she spills Ott and Bledsoe in close conversation. She shadows them and learns that they contemplate robbing the village bank. She notifies the marshal by phone. In an attempt to save Barry Dwane, who is left as a lookout, she herself arrested. Barry helps her escape. Big Ott is arrested. Bledsoe is wounded, but escapes unknown to the marshal. In the city jail Ott meets an old derelict. He confides in him and bribes him, by engineering his freedom through political sources, to communicate with the Chocolate Kid. Zola, disguised as a scruw woman in the HE elevator stopped with a lurch. The door was shot back angrily and the most nondescript individual stepped out that the Chocolate Kid had seen in many a day. It Section 2—Saturday, March 23, 1929 showed it in the fearful and wonderful array of vari-colored apparel that he had bought with some of the money that had come to him as advance payment for the service Ott had asked of him. The screaming yellow of his youthful brogans shouted loud curses at the vivid green of his collegiate hat, while in between the huge checks of his extremely wide and baggy suit seemed to be having a party all their own. The elevator boy did not wait to make any explanations, but with a snort of contempt sent his car whizzing upward. BELLING TALKS Old John looked around, blinking owlishly. He espied the Kid, "I ain't no bum!" he shouted belligerently, "I gotta 'pointment to meet young Misser Dwane right here in this 'partment, Mr. Barry Dwane." He drew himself up and spoke with impressive earnestness. The Chocolate Kid's keen eyes lighted for a moment, but he kept them carefully fixed on the ludic- (Continued on next page) Clean, Wholesome and Refreshing A man in a plaid coat holds a cane and covers his face with his hand, while another man stands behind him, wearing a suit and holding a cane. STRUGGLING HEARTS (Continued from Page 1) rously dignified old man as he spoke. "Mr. Dwane doesn't live in these apartments, but," his voice was placative and quietly courteous, "maybe I'll be able to help you if you care to explain to me just what the nature of your business with him is." The Chocolate Kid knew that a drunken man would never be able to weigh the nature of such a question if his suspicions as to the questioner were allayed. Gain a drunkard's confidence while he is in his cups and you may have his secrets for the asking. He was not mistaken. "I know he don't live here. Never said he lived here, did I?" The belligerent note crept again into the high, quavering old voice. "It's the other feller lives here, Chocolate Kid, that's his name. Misser Dwane's goin' to introduce me to the Chocolate Kid. I got a message for the Chocolate Kid." He lowered his voice with the elaborate caution that is so ludicrously ineffective when attempted by one under the influence of drink. "It's a secret; I gotta tell it to the Chocolate Kid himself. The big guy paid me an', even if I don't like him, I gotta play fair. I always play fair, I do. Always did, that's why I'm where I am today. But I gotta play fair. I gotta tell this Chocolate Kid what the big guy asked me to. That's why this Dwane feller said he'd meet me here an' take me to this Kid. Wouldn't tell him. Won't tell nobody but the Chocolate Kid." As he rambled on garrulously Zola drew nearer, pretending always to be working. (Continued on Page 11) FROM FARM T.

There sped from one to the other a look of utter bewilderment. Then the elevator stopped again at the floor and Barry Dwane, a wearied look on his weak, good-natured face, stepped out. When he saw the group his look of worry slipped away and left one of relief in its place. "Thank Mike, he found you, Chocolate. I been wanderin' all over town lookin' for this bozo. He left a trail of four dollar and ninety-nine cent purchases all up and down both sides of yokel row. Heaven help him if it ever rains on him before he can reach cover. Them trick clothes will fold up and silently and completely as them Arab's tents and just naturally steal away." He laughed. But at the look of surprised bewilderment on the Chocolate Kid's face he sobered suddenly and looked around. Zola was bending over her pails, her back turned to the group of men. In the voluminous folds of her shapeless dress There was nothing to remind the young fellow of the beautiful dancer whom he knew and believed to have disappeared entirely from the city to hide even from himself, who would gladly have helped her in any way he could. His eyes came again to rest on the face of the younger man. Old John Belling was maundering on about the message. Even the presence of Barry had not stopped him. But the boy's next words did. BELLING DELIVERS MESSAGE "Why, this is the Chocolate Kid you're talkin' to, fellow," he said loudly as one speaks to a deaf person. The old man's mouth fell open. His look of amazed incredulity was ludicrous. The Chocolate Kid smiled. "Well, I'll say this for your frien'," he said, "he talks a lot, but he don't tell his secrets to amount to anything. Come on in my rooms." The aviator's voice was interested. "I'd like to know just what the big idea is." Discreetly and unobtrusively, Zola had moved along the hall and disappeared down a side corridor. The Kid led the way into his luxurious apartment. "He said Big Ott give him a message for you," it was Barry who opened the conversation. "I got the orders from Slippery to help him find you. Slippery said it come down from the big boss that they let him out on orders from higher up. They're keepin' Ott in till after election. The reformers is hard on their trail and this is a sop. Ott won't trust nobody much. I guess the old guy's pretty easy and he needs dough, anybody can see that. I didn't want to let the bunch know where you hung out, so I pretended I had a friend out here who would tell me where to find you. I didn't know this bozo would get lit and --- ZOLA OVERHEARS broadcast the fact that he was huntin' you." He said the last apologetically. "Aw, that's all right, Barry." With a wave of the hand the aviator turned to the old man, who, now that he had found his man,' seemed none too certain of the message he had to give him. THE "KID" SPEAKS "Well, friend, I'm the Chocolate Kid. What you got to say?" The old fellow shot a curiously so- bered glance at the man before he spoke. "Say," he said, "is this Big Ott got anything to do with hurtin' any women folks with his plans?" (Continued on Page 11) FROM FARMHAND T.

In a member of the M Negro members of the House of Delegates of West Virginia have never failed to leave their mark in the state legislative sessions by securing the passage of laws of benefit to the Negro race, and therefore to the whole commonwealth. While the Negro population of West Virginia is small, it possesses an unique sagacity in political acumen which has engineered many local triumphs in state politics. One may summarize it as a skillful and purposeful manipulation of the balance of voting power under efficient organization of capable leaders. T. Edward Hill represents this type of leader. Born in Henry county, Virginia, near the town of Martinsville, in 1883, he early learned self --- W ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION Learn to Draw Easily The Magic Power of a Few Lines a Leaf A Made into a Stork Joy Jr. reliance in labor on farm, in tobacco factory, in railroad construction and coal mining. Formal education was received in the public schools of Henry county and in Washington, D.C. Diligence and efficiency brought him in 1911 to part ownership and management at Keystone, W. Va., of the "MeDowell Times," in association with M. T. Whittico. Since that time he has been a potent and developing [Image of a man with round glasses and a dark suit]. factor in West Virginia politics. Beginning in 1912, he was elected for four consecutive times alternate district delegate to the Republican national convention. In 1916 he became a member of the McDowell county Republican executive committee, serving as its secretary until 1920. He cured experience from four years' service as president of the Colored McDowell Republican organization, from one year's clerkship in the office of the secretary of state, from observation as a representative of the press in every session of the legislature from 1909 to 1921. In four successive legislatures he was assistant bill editor, and finally printing clerk of the state senate. His influence was felt in the legislature, therefore, long before he was elevated to membership in that body. Every law enacted for the advancement of the interests of the Negro population in West Virginia since 1909 has profited from his aid.

The Woman's Tonic It was Mr. Hill who drafted the legislative act which created the Bureau of Negro Welfare and Statistics, a form of state social service which has been copied by the state of Michigan and has attracted attention elsewhere. As its first director for six years (1921-27) Mr. Hill compiled interesting reports of economic health and general living conditions of the Negro population of the state. In the present legislature Mr. Hill is a member of the finance committee and leader of the strong McDowell county delegation. Two bills sponsored by him have already been enacted into law. One, an amendment of a bill drafted by him in 1927, which provides state aid for continuous education of Negro students of high school rank in communities not providing high schools for colored students. The original law gives state money grants for the professional education of Negro students outside of the state, in such fields as cannot be offered in the State College for Negroes at Institute. A second bill, passing without a dissenting vote, makes the state college unique among the seventeen Negro land grant colleges of America, in that, in addition to changing the name from the West Virginia Collegiate institute to the West Virginia State college, provision is made for the gradual introduction of professional and graduate schools.

Without ex- ception, not a single book his been written in the past two or three years that could do more to better racial understanding if widely read. There has been so mucir-bunk spread on the subject of inferior and superior, primitive and cultivated, progressive and backward races, that a great deal of harm has been done, _ Dr. Boas’ book is valuable and necessary because it explains all of these contentions of the bunk spread- ‘ers and proves them to be false. In ‘the first place. Dr. Boas, who is. prob- ably the greatest living student of the characteristics of the human race, tells us that there isn’t any such thing as a race. There are whites who have features of Negroes, and Negroes who have features of whites. Then there is no such thing as a pure race, because all of the groups of mankind have been intermingling since the beginning of time. In other words, there is not a so-called white person who has no Negro ancestry, nor is there a black person who has no relation, no matter how distant with the whites, Sometimes this rela- tionship between people shows itselt in skin pigment, but just about a: often it shows itself merely in. fea. tures.

UNIQUE experiment in tracing the sources and history of American Negro spirituals is being conducted in Africa by N. G. J. Balanta, a native of Freetown, Sierra Leone, West Africa. Mr. Balanta, under a Guggenheim Fellowship, trained a number of Africans to sing the spirituals, and recently gave a recital at Lagos, Nigeria, under the patronage of Sir Graame Thomson, governor of that country. A feature of the program was the playing of African melodies on a specially built organ, which employs seventeen tones to the octave. Mr. Balanta has discovered that the native music requires seventeen tones for its accurate presentation. Mr. Balanta is a graduate of the Fourah Bay College in Freetown, and studied music while holding a clerical position under the British government. About five years ago he visited America, and, aided by George Foster Peabody, who has long been interested in Negro education in America, he collected Negro melodies in Southern states and published them in a book, entitled "St. Helena Spirituals." Upon completion of this work he was granted the fellowship for research in native African music. In comparing the spiritual with the African folksong, Mr. Balanta points out that both are sung in harmony, whereas all other folksongs, except those of Hungary, are expressed in unison. This form of the spiritual is expressed by a leader and a chorus as in the African folksong. These facts, according to Mr. Balanta, show that the African, on being transplanted into another environment, preserved the same means of musical expression to which he had been accustomed in his native land. The spiritual, although conceived and expressed as in any African folksong, is of a higher order, and is said to prove the Negro's musical talent to be highly developed in his new environment. ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION though based upon primitive rhythms, has advanced to its present stage of development largely through the spirit of Christianity. "Christianity," he says, "is the force that has breathed life into the innate musical talent of the African in his new environment. At the psychic moment there was at hand the precise religion for the condition into which he had been thrust. Far from his native land and customs, despised by those among whom he lived, experiencing on the auction block the pangs of separation from his loved ones, knowing the hard taskmaster, feeling the lash, the Negro seized Christianity—the religion of compensations in the life to come for the ills suffered in the present existence; the religion which implied the hope that in the next world there would be a reversal of condi- tions, of rich man and poor man, of proud and weak, of master and slave. The result was a body of songs voicing all the cardinal virtues of Christianity — patience, forbearance, love, faith and hope — through a necessarily modified form of primitive African music. The Negro took complete refuge in Christianity and the spirituals were literally forged of sorrow in the heat of religious fervor. They exhibited, moreover, a reversion to the simple principles of primitive communal Christianity. "It is not possible to estimate the sustaining influence that the story of the trials and tribulations of the Jews, as related in the Old Testament, exerted upon the Negro. The story at once caught and fired the imagination of the Negro bards, and they sang—sang their hungry listeners into a firm faith that as God saved Daniel in the lions' den, so would He preserve them; as God delivered Israel out of bondage in Egypt, so would He deliver them. How much this firm faith had to do with the Negro's physical and spiritual survival of two and a half centuries of slavery cannot be known. "Thus it was by sheer spiritual forces that the African chants were changed into the spirituals; that upon the fundamental throb of African rhythms were reared those reaches of melody that rise above earth and soar into the pure ethereal blue. And this is the miracle of the creation of the spirituals." A NEW TRICK TO TRY First put a rubber band on your hand, as shown in the illustration, then try to get it off following these rules: The hand must not touch anything while you are trying to free it from the rubber band. The right hand must not assist in getting the rubber off by twisting the fingers or contracting the muscles of the other hand. The first Negro to be called to the service of the abolitionists was Charles Lenox Remond. He was employed by the Anti-Slavery Society as a lecturer for about 30 years. He lectured in Great Britain and Ireland also. Sip: "What would you do if you lost your knee." Sap: "I would go to Africa where the Negroes."

She fs torn between the advantages and disadvantages of both races. Some of her closest rel- atives are unmistakably colored and there are situations where she must choose between them and the pre- carious though uninhibited life of a “passer.” Having a distince Nordic appearance, she suffers more insults when in company with her dark- skinned brethren than when she “crosses the line.” Yet when she finally abandons her Negro associa- tions new and different problems confront her. The fact that she is colored looms very large in her con- science and causes her at times a frightful uneasiness. The author has depicted in bold and frank language how the problem of color can tear at the very heart- strings of family life. In spite of the daring point of view from which the story is narrated, there is nothing sordid in its method or its subject matter. It is not often one finds in a novel- ist aceuracy as well as fluency of imagination. While making a suffi- cient allowance for picturesque and graphic deseription, Miss Fauset has not written with a purely exagger- ated and extravagant style. Her character delineations are worthy of the highest commendations. < This novel will command the in- terest of the sophisticated as weil as the unsophisticated reader.

This ruler established the supremacy of Egyptian commerce of Syria and North Africa. It was he who began the custom of issuing passports to merchants enabling them to travel as far as India and China. Those who did net profess the Moslem faith were- persecuted and often beheaded. ‘Yet Kala’un was exceedingly public- spirited in that he established a hos- pital for the relief of the poor and needy. After a very powerful and ‘successful reign he’ died November ‘10th, 1290, Other Sultans followed him, contimuing the prestige and power of the Empire until well into ‘the 4th century.

The trip to Paris made Dumas see that he was wasting his time tn 2 small town. He wanted to live in Paris. But where was the money to come from? WAS GREAT SPORT ‘Then luck came his way. One eve~ ning while playing for drinks im a cafe he won six hundred glasses of absinthe. But as he never smoked nor drank all his life, he suggested that the loser even scores by paying his way to Paris. And to Paris he went. There he had great difficulties get- ting work, but finally got a position at copying letters, thanks to his ‘beautiful hand writing, in the house- hold of the Duke of Orleans. (later King Louis Phillipe) at 2 salary of 35 a week. | Im the meantime he was reading every book he could get hold, par- ticularly fiction and mythology. Then he wrote another play, called “Love and the Chase,” a comedy, which had Some success in a small theater. This was followed by others of the same nature. Dumas was getting pretty well pleased with himself until one’ night he heard @ lady in the audi- ence say: “This sort of thing will never keep the theater a-going.” At this his ol@ ambition flared anew, and he wrote @ play for the leading theater im Paris. The committee of the theater liked the play and ordered it produced, but the leading comedian of the day, Picard, made such fun of it, that the order was cancelled. «Continued on Page 9} March 23, 1929 cseeeiraner ee a Ushed Mindwine I2EN. 16th Bt.

CBE, 2110 8. Michigan Av., DUMAS, IDOL of FRANCE Stop those rheumatic pains! March 23, 1929 (Continued from Page 8) Determined to win out, however, Dumas wrote another play, called Henri III. It was better than the other, and the committee ordered its immediate production. But now two misfortunes struck Dumas at once. His beloved mother fell ill, and the Duke of Orleans discharged him for neglecting his work. Dumas had been devoting most of his time to play-writing. But rehearsals went on with Dumas spending every moment he could spare at his mother's bedside. Then an idea struck him. He wanted to show the Duke just what kind of man he had discharged, and wrote him asking him to attend the opening of the play. THE DUKE The Duke replied that he was giving a Royal party that night and it was impossible. Dumas suggested that he bring the party along. The Duke replied that they would be at dinner at that hour. Dumas, not to be beaten, suggested that the Duke advance his dinner by one hour, while the theater set back its opening one hour. The Duke made other objections, but Dumas finally won. The Duke appeared with all his guests. The play was an instant success on its own merits. From that moment Dumas' name, then unknown, was on everyone's lips. He got a large sum of money for the rights. With this money he did two things typical of him. Seeking out Devriolane, his old tormentor, he flourished a great sheaf of banknotes in his face, and then remembering his old days of hunger, and promising himself not to go hungry again, he went to a leading restaurant and bought meal tickets to last for a whole year. Then of all things: the restaurant failed a few weeks later. But Dumas was a made man. After writing some 50 more plays he took to novel writing, his works becoming so popular that the characters were discussed alike in cafes and the salons of the great as if they were real persons. King and princes sought his favor. At the height of his career he occupied the place in the public eye that was held by Napoleon. Prince Napoleon, the latter's nephew, thought it an honor to be with him, and invited him as special guest on a tour of Italy. It would be impossible to give even a summary of his rich and wonderful life in an article many times this length. In addition to writing books he fought in the Revolution of 1830, with distinction, and was a victor in two duels. A giant in size he possessed force of muscle and brain to match. He wrote tirelessly and for sheer love of it. One of his best books was written on a wager. Dumas said that he would do it in three days. But he finished it in 66 hours, including time for eating and sleeping. Full of gaiety and wit he simply filled the air with good humor wherever he went. When writing he would laugh uproariously with the characters of the story, splashing about in sheer joy, as a bird taking its bath. As to his gaiety he wrote himself: "I carry it with me wherever I go. I don't know how it is but it is so." There was an atmosphere of good nature around him that became proverbial. Dumas earned millions of dollars, and he spent it, and gave it away like water. He gave large sums to the Italians, who were then fighting, for their freedom; he built a great castle named Monte Cristo, after one of his novels, and kept open house to which hundreds would come; on his dressing table were heaps of gold pieces from which anyone could help himself; and no one in distress ever appealed to him in vain. Beggars, high and low, simply took advantage of him. He would prosecute no one. When a man whom he befriended swindled him of a large sum, and was being pursued by the police, Dumas refused to help the officers. "Well." said he, "the fellow may be a scoundrel, but it's no business of mine to find a rope to hang him with." He had a Negro valet, "Alexander the Great," who used to dress himself in Dumas's finery and strut along the boulevards, posing as the great writer. Dumas finally hired another man, and calling Alexander told him that the new man was to wait on them both, and that his only request was that he should not take him out with him.

HAVE you ever longed to be more popular—to have more friends, and make more of a success of your life? If you have, then you will be interested in this letter which has just come in from one of our readers. She is just a young woman—the age when she should be popular with young women and men alike—when she should have lovers and sweet-hearts—but she doesn't have them! She wants to know the reason why—but here is her letter, and some of her handwriting: "I only hope that you can help me. A friend of mine saw in the paper where you can tell people about themselves just from their hand-writing, so I think that maybe you can help me. I am quite good looking, and dress as well as anyone of my age or crowd. My people are well thought of, but I do not have nearly as many friends as other girls. A strange fellow will come to town, and almost always he asks me for a date. He comes to see me steadily for a short time, maybe two or three weeks or longer, and then he stops coming. There must be something wrong—and how I long to know! It means everything to a young woman to know herself, and if you can help me I hope that you will do it."—F.L. WANTS TO "BOSS" Surely it is a terrible thing for a young man or woman to have many good qualities that would make them popular, but have some little trait that makes people tire of their company. This is exactly what is true of F. L. It shows in her handwriting, just as plainly as though she walked down the street with a great signboard strapped across her back, saying, "I mean to boss." It is this trait in her nature that makes her friends go away. They don't like to always be told what they must do. F. L. is brilliant. She is honest and loyal.

Luckily for him, he was not born in America. He might have met the fate of Frederick Douglass, who lived at the same time.

Foremost among anti-slavery agitators was E. P. Lovejoy, who afterwards gave his life for the cause. In 1715 the slave population of the United States was about 60,000. The emancipation of all the slaves in the French colonies took place Feb. 4, 1794. The complete emancipation of slaves in the English colonies occurred between 1838 and 1839, when more than 800,000 men, besides women and children, were liberated. Sweden emancipated her slaves in 1846, and this was soon followed (in 1848) by the Danish colonies proclaiming the freedom of their slaves. Holland delivered her American colonies from slavery Aug. 8, 1862. The African slave trade was closed in the United States on the first day of January, 1862. In 1774 the articles of the Continental association agreed that no more slaves should be imported and that the African slave trade should be wholly discontinued. A BABY FOR YOU Are you denied the blessing of motherhood—the glory of a baby all your own? Do you and your husband yearn for a baby's arms and a baby's smile? Nature does not intend that any woman should be childless. When she is, it is usually due to some weakness or disorder of the organs of reproduction. When these organs are properly toned up, invigorated and helped to function properly, the blessings of motherhood may be realized. Many women are now praising a remarkable new treatment called Gen-Tone and expressing their gratitude for what it has done for them. Intended as an aid in revitalizing the organs of reproduction, many report also that it helped to relieve many of the ailments common to women, such as bearing-down and periodical pains, etc., and aids them to lead happier and more companionable lives. To test this new treatment, simply send name to Hamilton Products Co., $20 American Bank Bld., Kansas City, Mo., and when your treatment arrives pay postman $2.00, plus few cents postage. This reliable company agrees to refund the $2.00 if you are not satisfied. You should not hesitate in accepting their generous offer.—Adv. Pep — Vigor — Energy Take SEX-TABS and be young again.
