DEAN KELLY MILLE PRESIDENT NEGRO Says President Proposes To Lay Little Stress On Race Problem BAR SINISTER CITED Appointment of That Type Would Stimulate Race, Says Dean DEAN KELLY MILLER ASKS PRESIDENT TO APPOINT NEGRO ON FARM BOARD DEAN KELLY MILLER ASKS PRESIDENT TO APPOINT NEGRO ON FARM BOARD The probability of President Hoover choosing a colored man as one of the eight members of the Federal farm board he will select is faint, if it exists at all, notwithstanding the requests for the appointment of a colored man that are being received at the White House. It is not believed that a colored man can be found with the qualifications that the President desires the persons to have whom he will appoint to the board. Lack of affiliation with farm organizations is the basis for this belief. The President is determined to select men of farm experience who have been actually engaged in directing farmers' marketing organizations. One of the letters to the President asking for the appointment of a colored man to the board was written by Kelly Miller, Howard University professor and publicist. Bar Sinister "The color bar is a bar sinister to the Negro as concerns city industries based upon machinery and organization," the letter stated. Continuing, Dean Miller says: "I gather from various angles that your administration purposes to lay comparatively little stress on the race problem from the purely political point of view, but rather hopes to serve the Negro comprehensively by encouraging improvement in his industrial, economic and moral lot. Here, it seems, you have a strategic opportunity. The selection of a competent colored man to serve on the Farm Board would go further to stimulate the mind of the race in the direction of its greatest usefulness to itself and to the nation than the appointment of a dozen candidates as register for something, recorder of something else, assistant to somebody or minister to somewhere." STORM LEAVES TRAIL OF DAMAGE The severe storm which swept through Washington last Friday midnight left several places inundated. The basement of the Margaret Washington Vocational School on O street, was flooded with approximately 40,000 gallons of water. The water rose fifteen feet. The siphon in the basement could not draw off the water due to the power being shut off. Five hours of pumping was required to get the water out of the basement. Damage was estimated at $300. The basement of the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clement R. Parker, 1646 Sixth street, northwest, was also flooded. Water rose to three feet. The furniture was completely ruined. Mr. Parker estimates his damage at $400. HIT ON HEAD BY BOY FRIEND Hit on the head with a brick thrown by her friend, James Taylor, Mildred Young, 28, 208 Brooks court, northwest, was carried to Freedmen's Hospital suffering with lacerated wounds of the head and face and a possible fracture of the skull.

(ANP)—Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, and president of the National Negro Business League, was awarded an honorary degree of Master of Arts, here Thursday, by Harvard University, thus marking the second time in the history of the university that a Negro has been so honored by Harvard. The first member of the Negro race to receive an honorary degree was the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, founder of the Tuskegee Institute and of the National Negro Business League, who was awarded the Master of Arts degree in 1896, in recognition of his service in the field of education. The degree conferred upon Dr. Moton was in recognition of the service he has rendered in the development of Tuskegee Institute and just how well and capably he has administered the affairs of the institution is clearly shown in the rapid progress the school has made under his administration. Other schools that have conferred honorary degrees upon Dr. Moton include: Oberlin College, Williams College, Virginia Union University, Wilberforce University, all of which granted him the LLD, degree, and Lincoln University, the Litt. D. Post Office Clerk Cut By Unknown Man John B. Shaw, a post office clerk residing at 1731 New Jersey avenue, northwest, was painfully stabbed in the head by an unknown assailant, Tuesday, June 25, in a fight in front of his home. Doctors who treated him at Freedmen's Hospital say he narrowly escaped a very serious wound in the scalp, which as it were, required four stitches to close it up. Washington Tribune Vol. IX, No. 7 IN TWO SECTIONS FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1929 WASHINGTON, OFFICE: 920 U St., N.W. PRICE FIVE CENTS SECTION ONE FAIRNESS OF REAPPORTIONMENT TO BE TESTED IN MANNER OF REDISTRICTING IN THE STATES HONORED © A.N.P. DR. R. R. MOTON DR. ROBERT R. MOTON, head of Tuskegee Institute, was awarded an honorary degree by Harvard University. FAIRNESS OF REA TO BE TESTED REDISTRICTIN Congress Fails to Pass Tinkham Amendment to Penalize the South MIGRATION BIG FACTOR More Negroes in House Seen if Gerrymanding is Not Attempted This special session of Congress, which began its summer recess June 19, was of special interest because of the presence of Repre- sentative Oscar DePriest, Republican, of Illinois, it being the first session in 28 years in which a colo- red person has sat as a member of either house. From the legislative viewpoint the session was disappointing. No remedial legislation relieving the Negro from disfranchisement in the South or penalizing Southern states for disfranchisement of their Negro population was written into any bill that was enacted into law. The census-reapportionment bill became a law without the Tinkham amendment which would have reduced representation of Southern states in proportion to their disfranchisement of Negro citizens. Population Shifted The shift in Negro population from the rural South to the industrial centers of the East and Middle West since the last reapportionment of the House following the census of 1910 will result in a gain in representation for the urban centers to which they have moved and a loss to those states which suffered from the migration. The test of reapportionment, so far as its political affect on colored persons is concerned, will come in the manner in which the states redistrict to care for increases or decreases in representation. If the large Negro districts in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee are left intact, Mr. DePriest may be joined by others of his race as members of the House. Hurt Alighting From Taxi A severely contused left knee was suffered by James Hayes, 26, 1526 Fifth street, northwest, when he attempted to alight from a taxi-cab. Monday, June 24. He was treated at Freedmen's Hospital and later removed to his home. CRIME COMMISSION ASKED TO INVESTIGATE INJUSTICES AND WRONGS SUFFERED BY NEGRO RUTH'S HEAD TO SPEAK HERE The Most Worthy Grand Supervisor of the Household of Ruth of the G.U.O. of O.F., of the United States, and the Islands of the Sea, Mrs. Alice L. Anderson, of Florida, will visit Washington on July 3, and will address all Ruthites of the District of Columbia at the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church, M street, between Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets, northwest, on July 3, at 8 p.m. An interesting program is being prepared under the direction of the District Grand Household, No. 1. APPORTIONMENT IN MANNER OF G IN THE STATES MAN IS KILLED IN FRIEND'S CAR Driver of Death Car Flees When Axle Breaks. Is Still at Large Warren Perry, 39, a world war veteran and a deacon in the Mt. Gilead Church, was struck and instantly killed by a hit-and-run driver last Monday night, June 24. Perry had just left church, where he had attended a meeting. He was offered a ride to his home, 2038 Fourth street, northwest, by Herbert Jones, another official of the church. Proceeding slowly along T street, the car was struck suddenly by a speeding touring car. Jones' car turned completely over on its top and then righted itself on its wheels again, so great was the force of the impact. The car was completely demolished. Perry was thrown from the car, the wreckage turning over on him, splintering his head at the base of the skull. He was rushed to the emergency room of the Freedmen's Hospital, and was pronounced dead upon arrival by Dr. John West, emergency room physician. The occupants of the hit-and-run car sped on to Fifth street and Florida avenue, where they abandoned the car and fled, leaving the victim to die in the street. Perry came to this city eleven years ago. He had risen to the position of deacon in his church when his career was cut short. The driver of the car had not been caught by Thursday evening. been caught by Thursday evening. Funeral services will be held Satu- rday at 10:00 o'clock, at the Mt. Gillard Church. Rev. W. L. Turley will officiate. TO HIT BILLS FOR STRIKEBREAKING CHICAGO, Ill. (CNS)—Illinois state legislature bills authorizing the formation of state police and repealing the eight-hour law for women in industry will be protested at a mass meeting to be held under the auspices of the Communist Party at the Northwestern Hall, North and Western avenue, at 8 p.m., Friday. Federal aid in the fight against injustices and wrongs which the Negro suffers in the United States is asked of the National Commission on Law Enforcement and Observation created by President Hoover to study law observance. The petition for Federal aid was made by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in a brief sent to George W. Wickersham, chairman of the commission, and made public Monday. Under the major headings of lynching, peonage, segregation and mob violence, the association's brief relates the fight made to put an end to these wrongs and recommends legislation on which the commission is asked to hold public hearings. Lynching and mob violence are given first consideration in the brief. Regarding disfranchisement, the brief charges that it exists in the South through "intimidation and terrorization as well as by grossly unequal and discriminatory administration of existing laws." In addition to laws remedying these conditions, the brief requests the formation of a Federal agency whose members would include both white and colored representatives to recommend other needed legislation and conduct educational work in racial problems. REV. A. J. CARR INJURED BY AUTO Rev. A. J. Carr, 1601 Eighth street, northwest, was seriously injured when he was struck by a car at Ninth and Q streets, northwest, Sunday evening, June 23. Cecil Johnson, 1763 Willard street, and driver of the car, claimed that he did not see the minister in time to apply the brakes. Johnson rushed the accident victim to Freedmen's Hospital, where he was confined to bed suffering with multiple contusions, lacerations, and bruises of the leg, face, hands, and body, together with shock. He was later removed to his home under the care of his private physician, where he is improving. Child Hurt by Auto Struck down accidently by the moving vehicle of S. E. Rocosen, of 922 Emerson street, northwest, Morris Fuller, a little four-year-old child, suffered painful bruises of the left leg and hip. His condition, however, is not serious, and he is resting quietly at the home of his mother, Mrs. Annie Fuller, of 1322 Sixth street, the address in front of which the accident occurred. Boy Hurt While Playing A fractured wrist was sustained by Thomas Livingston, age 12, of 1815 Tenth street, northwest, as a result of falling to the ground while playing in the rear of 1811 First street, northwest, Friday afternoon, June 21. He was taken to Freedmen's Hospital and treated by Dr. Butler, emergency clinic physician. WINS HONORS DAVID S. UTZ, Jr., former Dunbar student, who graduated from Amherst with high honors.

N.E. 5 BITTEN BY DOGS DURING PAST WEEK Increase in the Number of Cases Believed Caused by Weather Five cases of people bitten by dogs in the past week show that the "dog days" victims are on the increase. Freedmen's Hospital reported the following five cases to police authorities: Rosa May Washington, a girl five years of age, living at 729 Balls Court, northwest, was bitten by a stray dog while she was at play around her home. A nasty laceration in the face was left by the teeth of the dog, that could not be caught afterwards for examination. Emma Hughes, 36, 2039 Fifth street, was bitten, Thursday, June 20, by a dog in her home, as she went about her housework. Her condition however is not considered serious. Allen Jackson, 22, 1210 Sixth street, was bitten on the hand by a pet dog in his home, Monday, June 24. He stated that the dog was not vicious and was unable to explain his actions. Melvin Hawkins, 8 years old, 2458 Eighth street, northwest, was playing in the vicinity of his home when he was bitten by a strange dog, who escaped, and therefore could not be examined for hydrophobia. Heywood Brown, age 44, 1743 Corcoran street, northwest, was bitten by an unknown dog as he went about his work at 1351 Fifth street, northwest. All five of the patients are under observation of Freedmen's Hospital physicians, but none of them, so far, have developed any serious complications. Leg Hurt In Accident A peculiarly ruptured muscle of the right leg was sustained by William Patterson, 29, 1928 Sixth street, northwest, after being struck by an automobile, Tuesday morning, June 25, at Sixth and P streets, northwest. At Freedmen's hospital, where Patterson was treated, doctors say his leg, although seriously ruptured, will not be permanently impaired.

AUDIENCE Says Salvation of Race Is In Its Own Hands. Tendered Big Ovation KNOXVILLE, Tenn.—Congressman Oscar DePriest, of Chicago, last night, told an audience of more than 1,500 people that the Negro never would gain his political and civil rights under the Constitution until he organizes politically. He was tendered an ovation by a throng which met him at the station. Following his address he was the honor guest at a dinner attended by more than 60 persons. Discussing the question of social equality, Mr. DePriest said: "All that I want for the Negro is white equality before the law. "The American white people are not to blame for the economic, social, political or civil status of the Negro," the speaker said. "His salvation is laid at his own door-step." He stated that he was "not in Congress to put over any special legislation in behalf of the Negro." Congressman DePriest was introduced by Mayor James A. Fowler, former solicitor general for the United States. He left here for Chattanooga. THINK TEACHERS ARE DUMB BELLS NEW YORK (CNS)—Basing his conclusion on questionnaires sent to 6,000 teachers, Dr. Manly H. Harper, of Columbia University, said yesterday that American educators are so conservative in social and political beliefs that they present a pitiful picture of ignorance and lack of independence of thought. Dr. Harper's opinion seems to be that teachers have been swallowing capitalist bunk so long that they are no longer able to think. Two of the four professors who were dismissed from Howard University in June, 1928, were granted a complete re-hearing of their case at the University, on Friday, June 21. A special committee, designated by the executive committee of the trustee board, composed of Dr. Jesse Mooreland, Dr. John R. Hawkins, and Dr. Mordecal W. Johnson, reheard the case. The two who sought a rehearing were Prof. William Henry Jones, former professor of sociology, and Prof. Moses Franklin Peters, former instructor in English. They were present at the hearing with their attorney, Alexander Wolfe. All of the original witnesses were brought to Washington to testify. The cost of the whole hearing was at the expense of the university. The special committee hearing the evidence was represented by Attorney Colliday. The defense was permitted to cross examine all the witnesses. The hearing lasted from 2 p.m., until 8 p.m. Full and frank discussions of all the charges were made. The special committee hearing the case, at the conclusion took the testimony under advisement. Their report will be made to the executive committee. The hearing of the evidence was a result of a petition of the dismissed men to have the case reopened. Two of the four men who were dismissed last year did not appear. The witnesses called were Mrs. Gladys Jamison Hutton, of Philadelphia, Pa.; Miss Ernestine Morgan, Montgomery, W. Va.; Miss Ella V. Haith, Winston-Salem, N. C., and Mrs. Bertha A, Lomack, Washington D.C. Hit With Lighted Lamp In a brawl, on the afternoon of June 22, with Pauline Fowler, his "girl," Ramond Cowell, 28; 1118 First street, northwest, was struck over the head with a lighted lamp. The result was a badly lacerated scalp. The two lived at the same address, and a quarrel over some trivial affair brought Cowell to Freedmen's Hospital emergency clinic for treatment including the necessity of sewing up his head. Knocked Down by Auto Struck down, in what is thought to be an unavoidable accident in Logan court, northwest, June 25, Louis Johnson, 29, 82 Pierce street, northwest, was carried to Freedmen's Hospital by Peter Brown Moreno, of 1332 V street, northwest, the driver of the car which struck him. He was treated for a lacerated lip and lacerations about the chin and face, and shock. Use Jim Crow Law In Factory Building NEW YORK.

Improvement In Employment Seen NEW YORK City.—The National Urban League through its Department of Industrial Relations, reports that the month of May showed improvement in employment. With the return of favorable conditions in industry, there appears to be a return to the use of Negroes in traditional occupations. This was noticeable in Boston, Lansing and St. Louis, where Negroes replaced whites as janitors, bell hops and waiters; and in Pine Bluff, Ark., Negro waiters are replacing white stewards on the dining cars of a railroad company. Paradoxically white men and women from several cities in Arkansas are chopping cotton, and a Mississippi river boat landing in Helena carried an all-white crew—not even a Negro fireman, roustabout or deck hand. Birmingham experienced losses when two plants closed there recently; an auto laundry replaced its Negro workers with whites in Boston; in St. Louis a large number of Negroes were laid off in the stone, clay and glass industries because of the building trades strike; the introduction of machinery processes threw 20 wire drawers out of work in Buffalo; a Negro who was in charge of the parts department of one of the largest automobile agencies in Des Moines was discharged when the company changed hands. STRUCK BY AUTO Mrs. Susie A. Fountaine, of 453 Florida avenue, northwest, was knocked down and injured by an automobile Friday night. She is at Emergency Hospital. S. M. DUDLEY REAL ESTATE 1421 You Street, Northwest LOANS INSURANCE Telephone, Potom : 5691 THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1929 POLICEMAN BEATEN BY MOB AT BLOCK PARTY The "block party" staged at the corner of Tenth and U streets, northwest, for the past two weeks by the women of the Knights of Pythias, came to a sudden and abrupt close on Thursday evening of last week, when the permit was revoked by District authorities upon recommendation of Captain Robert E. Doyle, of the 8th precinct. Despite the assignment of two policemen to keep order, the neighborhood was kept in constant turmoil by the disorderliness of the MME. CAUSBY RETURNS HOME Madame Causby, local beauty culturer, has just returned from a tour of Shecaandoah and Maryland towns. In every town that she visited, she was welcomed, and in many of them she added new agents and students of her hairdressing methods. While in Winchester, Va., Mme. Causby was entertained at dinner by Rev. D. B. Thorps, pastor of the A.M.E. Church, and at breakfast by Mrs. Charles Fletcher. In Harrisonburg, she was entertained at a party given by Mrs. E. Francis. She stopped in Staunton with Mrs. Geneva Harding, one of her former students. She was entertained there at a very elaborate party given by Mrs. McKinley Bryant, and at breakfast by Mrs. Signor Stuart. Sunday, she spoke at the Baptist Church in Lexington, Va., after which she was entertained by Mrs. Aleta Roland. Monday evening at 6 o'clock, she was entertained by Mr. Warren Jackson at a dinner dance. While Jackson was guest of Mr. and Mr. Isaac, Koland A Million Dollars Makes Dallas Mayor Change His Mind DALLAS, Texas—Money is a power if you know how to use it. The Knights of Pythias were to hold their grand lodge in Dallas. The Mayor, J. Waddy Tate, of hot dog fame, was approached to deliver the welcome address. He replied, "I won't speak to your convention, that's all there is to it." The Pythians took out a halfpage ad in a Sunday paper showing their financial standing to be $1,268,283.54. This statement boldly showed that the grand lodge had $110,900.70 on deposit in two banks in Dallas. On the front page of the paper a story appeared under a double column heading, saying: "Leaders aroused over Tate's slap at Negroes." Interviews were given from leading white citizens. The former Mayor, Louis G. Blalock, said, "Why, I am genuinely incensed. That is an outrage. Surly Waddy must have misunderstood." Tate Changes His Mind Money and publicity are powerfulful sentiment builders. Public opinion followed the million dollars and favored it. The snubbing mayor became ill and left for a watering resort, but wrote out a welcome address which he sent to be read to the grand lodge when it convened June 2-7. Business is business. With $66,000 on deposit in one bank and $44,00 in another bank and the prospect of more than 5,000 visitors in the city, for six days, which would mean money to the commercial interest in Dallas—dollars plus publicity turned the trick. The mayor sent a statement to the papers that he had always been a friend to Negroes and that he was trying at that time to get them more jobs on public improvement work. The moral of this incident is: If you have a million dollars and know how to use it, no one, not even a mayor in Texas, is going to insult you and be permitted to get away with it. Get a million and command respect. Brotherhood In Drive For 10,000 Members NEW YORK City—A nationwide drive has been projected by the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters to increase the membership to 10,000 by September 1, according to A. Philip Randolph president and general organizer. The Brotherhood already has in its ranks some 7,000 members or more. A special organization campaign will be waged in the south, in which the Pullman Company recruits most of its new workers. 7TH DAY BAPTIST CHURCH Elder Lewis Sheafe left the city Saturday afternoon, to attend the 16th annual Ministers Conference, which is being held at Hampton, Va. He will return next Saturday, the 29th. Miss Lossie Howard, who has been very ill at her home, 415 E street, northeast, continues to improve. A Pageant, "Life's Victors," will be given at Mt. Olive Church, 6th and M streets, northeast on Sunday night, June 30th, at 8 o'clock. The pageant is for the benefit of Group M, of Mt. Olive Church, and is being directed by Bessie Brent Madison, of the 10th and V streets Church. SPECIAL TRAIN leaves Union Station, July 3rd - 10:25 P.M. RETURNING: Leaves Charlotte, night of 4th - 8:15 Arrive in Washington - 7:05 A.M. crowd and there were nightly brawls and fights. Matters came to a climax Thursday evening when one of the police officers was assaulted and painfully injured about the head and face by a mob while attempting to make an arrest, and the revocation of the permit followed immediately. It is understood that most of the disorder was caused by a rough element of youngsters attracted by the affair, and no blame or censure attaches to the Pythian order. FIRST CHILDREN GO TO CAMP Out of the hot and crowded city into the open country to the shady hillside overlooking the wide Potomac at Blue Plains, D.C., the first party of happy children and work-weary mothers were taken on Tuesday of this week as free guests of the Summer Outings Committee of the Associated Charities. Another party of campers was taken on Wednesday to Camp Good Will under the same auspices. Fully 300 of these fortunate ones were entertained at both camps and are to stay there for two carefree weeks comfortably sheltered in tents, with woods and fields to explore, games and sports and entertainments, special care for the babies by trained nurses, and three generous meals each day for all. As these camps are this year included in the Community Chest budget, no separate appeal for funds is necessary, but still some old friends have sent in their contributions and asked to have tents named. This can be done if desired, with due credit made to the Chest. TO PREACH ON "THE SEVEN SEALS" Rev. J. L. S. Holloman, pastor of the Second Baptist Church, announced a new series of sermons beginning last Sunday. The general subject is "The Seven Seals," and last Sunday he opened the series at the morning service with "The Mighty Conqueror." Sunday, June 30, he will speak on "The Symbols and Weapons of War." This series will carry through to August 4, 1929. Only One In Nebraska LINCOLN, Neb. June 27.—Miss Zanye H. A.

ANTI-IMPERIALIST FORCES UNITING NEW YORK (CNS)—Over two hundred delegates from white and Negro organizations got together, Saturday, June 15, at the Irving Plaza to perfect plans for intensifying the struggle against world imperialism and to elect delegates to the Paris Congress of the League Against Imperialism, which convenes July 21. Three delegates were elected, one Negro and two whites. Other delegates may be sent by such organizations as can finance the trip. It is understood that at least two Negro organizations, the N.A.A.C. P., and the American Negro Labor Congress, will send their own delegates to supplement those elected by the conference. Wilder P. Montgomery Gets Perfect Rating Wilder P.

Jones, 505 O street, northwest, is seeking a limited divorce from her husband, James Jones, an employee of a daily newspaper. Through Houston & Houston, attorneys, she filed suit last Friday in the District of Columbia Supreme Court. In her bill of complaint, Mrs. Jones says that she was forced to work to maintain and support herself. During the period of their married life, she states, besides donating $10 a week for household expenses, her husband gave her a total of $50 only, in three installments of $35, $25 and $20. She contributed $75 a month out of her earnings to meet the payments on their home, she declares. Jones indulged in intoxicating liquors, his wife says, and while under their influence was cruel, abusive, and insulting in his conduct and speech. The couple were married October 31, 1928. He deserted her, Mrs. Jones states. April 20. Husband and Wife Hurt in Auto Spill Alice Thompkins, 29, of 2103 Seventh street, northwest, was painfully injured in an auto accident at Quantico, Va., on Sunday, June 23.

Mrs. Thompkins narrowly escaping getting killed, was immediately rushed to Freedmen's Hospital by her husband, who was treated by Dr. Butler, of the hospital emergency room staff, for cuts and abrasions of the arms and wrist and shock.

It is not always in fiction and the moving pictures that a "good guy" takes the "fall" and gives his partner "a break" for the sake of the wife. It happens sometimes even in real life. Such is the case of Dennis Marshall, chubby little fellow, who with Charlie Jones made "whoopee" at the Night Club Bohemia, where society, including members of Greek letter fraternities and sororities and the college boys were wont to play after dances and when the city offered no other diversion. Marshall and Jones were indicted for sale and illegal possession. The case was called for trial. The veniremene were waiting to be called for jury duty. Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy, who was to preside at the trial, and Assistant SWALLOWS A OUARTER George Hughes, age six, of 2220 Georgia avenue, was on his way to the store for his mother, Sunay evening, June 23, with a quarter. George thought he could throw the quarter up in the air and catch it in his mouth, and he could. The only holdback was that the quarter kept on going down, instead of staying in his mouth. He had to go up to Freedmen's Hospital, where several doctors examined his innards without finding a trace of the missing money. The learned internes passed the judgment that George must "grow up more" before anything definite could be known. In the meantime, say the physicians, he should eat a plenty of cornbread, potatoes, and rice, and forget about the quarter.

Collins, who was to prosecute the case, were ready. James A. Purcell, attorney for Marshall, arose, asked leave of the court to withdraw his former plea of not guilty for his client and entered a plea of guilty to the charge. The case was referred to the probation officer for investigation. The case against Jones was not proclaimed. Last Saturday Marshall was brought before Chief Justice McCoy for sentencing. Everybody expected him to be given a suspended sentence and put on probation. But Chief Justice McCoy just could not be made to understand why the case against Jones was dropped and out of curiosity he decided to give Marshall a year in jail. the preparation of diets and special diets, the management of various kinds of food departments, and the general routine work of a modern dietician, under the supervision of Mrs. M.

TO BATTLE LONDON FOG It is estimated that during a bad fog in London there are between 800,000 and 1,600,000 particles of soot crammed into every cubic inch of air. Each person breathes about 30,000 cubic inches of air every hour. This means that under bad fog conditions in London every person inhales from 24,000,000 to 48,000,000 particles of soot in an hour. The shutting out of the ultra-violet rays of the sun is the worst and most harmful feature of air pollution. This is the frequent cause of rickets and tuberculosis. Several hundred tons of soot are produced by the burning of fires which shut out about 50 per cent of the winter sun shine. Scientists are working on methods of decreasing the fog. The work is under the supervision of the British Air Ministry. A news correspondent gloomily reports that there seems no way to cure the political mania in Syria. That country must be much like ours.

HOOVER'S STAND Deplores Race Prejudice; Incident Helps to Better The Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (white), with headquarters here on Seventeenth street, made public, Monday, a letter addressed to Mrs. Herbert Hoover commending her for extending to Mrs. Oscar DePriest the courtesy of the White House which was extended to the wives of all Congressmen. The letter follows: "When the first notice of your hospitality to Mrs. DePriest was given publicity in the press it did not seem either suitable or necessary to express the attitude of this organization of women regarding a courtesy which was automatically extended to the wives of all members of the United States Congress and which we had taken for granted in turn would automatically be accepted by all citizens who believe in democratic institutions. However, since we note the resolutions passed by various groups, deploring this very proper courtesy of yours, we do wish to express our wholehearted gratitude and admiration to you. Wage Humanness "The Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, an organization of women with members in every state in the Union and affiliations in the three major political parties, has consistently urged a more humane and decent policy with regard to our Negro citizens. We believe that your hospitality to Mrs. DePriest adheres to the best American tradition of democracy and is a happy step in the direction of more normal and wholesome race relations. "At the annual meeting of this organization, held in Detroit, April 24-27, a statement of policies was adopted, one paragraph of which is as follows: The Negro Problem "The Negro problem is one that everyone can help in singlehanded, for it arises mainly because of the stupidifies and cruelty of race prejudice. We look forward to the day when there will be no more inconvenience or self consciousness connected with race than with the possession of blue eyes or brown eyes. As regards legislation we urge the passage of the Dyer anti-lynching bill." "At this time when all patriotic citizens are rejoicing that the President is giving such splendid efforts to the furtherance of permanent International Peace, we of the Women's International League in turn are gratified that the White House has led the way to more intelligent, Christian and sound social relations with the citizens of our minority race, and we therefore beg you to accept this expression of our very warm admiration. "Respectfully yours." A "seer" says 1929 will be a fortunate year for females, thus making the tenth year of that kind since 1919. DePRIEST IS GUEST OF PHELPS TEACHERS Congressman Oscar DePriest and his secretary, Morris Lewis, were the guests of the Phelps Vocation School teachers at their annual outing held at Colton, Md., last Saturday.

Life Readings One Dollar No Readings Given By Mall # The first of a series of addresses to local unions of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters preliminary to a unification convention in Chicago, Ill., at which an international union is expected to be formed, will be made in New York City Sunday afternoon by William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, it was stated at his offices here, Tuesday. The meeting will begin an intensive drive to completely unionize Pullman porters and maids and to force recognition of their organization by the Pullman Company. The union has organizations in New York, Boston, Washington, Jacksonville, Atlanta, New Orleans, Fort Worth, Los Angeles, Oakland, Seattle, Portland, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, and Cincinnati. About 8,000 out of 12,000 porters are said to be members of the various locals of the organization. A boon has been given to the further organization of the Pullman porters and maids, it is believed here, by the decision of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans, which gives to members of railroad unions the right to use labor injunctions against their employers.

Reports come in of a game played in San Antonio between the San Antonians and Tulsa, in which the game lasted fifteen innings, the final score being 4-3 in favor of San Antonio. Jess Hubbard, mountainous right fielder of the Baltimore Black Sox, went on a hitting rampage against the Cuban Stars, garnering four straight hits in the first game, three triples, two doubles, and one single in the second game of a double-header. Gisentaner, of Alexandria, twirled a fairly creditable game against the Sox in the night-cap. He struck out "Jud" Wilson, the mighty clouting first sacker, twice. "Buzz" Mackay, George Carr, and "Ping" Gardner have returned to active duty for their respective clubs. "Yamon" Yokely, the hurling ace of the Black Sox, has never lost a game to the Cuban Stars. "Dickigo," short stop of the Clan Darbie, is the first Cuban to my knowledge to ever sport the silks of the Hillsdale entry. Petere Washington, and Dixon, a duet of Rossiter's fly chasers, gave a thrill to a large and appreciative audience with some of the classiest fielding I've seen in many a day. Cumberland Posey's gray-clad horde will undertake a very pretentious job when they play four double headers in a week with the Bacharachs, Hillsdales, and Baltimore Black Sox. Two double headers will be played with the Sox. "Rube" Foster, the great master mind in Negro baseball, lost only six games to colored teams during his entire pitching career. "Bruce" Petway was one of the hardest catchers to steal a base on in the heyday of his career. He stopped "Ty" Cobb, the Georgia Peach, fourteen out of fifteen times, with John Henry Lloyd playing short stop on the receiving end of his throws. "Mike" Moore, formally of the Leland Giants, invented the hook slide. George Shirley, deceased, was the first to use the so-called "drag bump." Goode Tailoring Co. Cleaners and Dyers TALK—DON'T WALK.

Young Wills, Washington Boy, Awarded Decision By Referee at Williams Athletic Club More Fights Scheduled For Fourth of July; Wills on Card Washington fight fans were treated to a rare sight last Wednesday night, when for the first time in many years, three bouts were presented to the general public by the Williams Athletic Association, at Williams Electric Grove, Sixty-first and Sheriff road, northeast. The first bout, which started at 830, presented George Joy and Speedy Dixon, in what turned out to be almost a wrestling match. George managed to work in some pile-driving rights to Speedy's jaw that seemed almost to make him groggy. Speedy, who had a white trainer and second, by the way, stepped into several of George's rights to the face and jaw, and landed a few himself. The fight was very even, and no decision was rendered, although we'd give George the edge over Speedy. The second contest, staged between "Kid" Rabusaro and Willie "Beater", was about the fastest and cleanest fight of the night, although the two were not so well matched. The "Kid" was short and heavy, while "Willie" was tall and slim. "Willie" seemed to have the edge in this go, ducking all of the Kid's heavier blows and coming in quick and fast. Only once was "Willie" in trouble, and that was when he slipped in a little pool of water that had been spilled in his corner of the ring. He got out of his predicament quickly, however, and waded into the Kid, as the gong sounded. At the beginning of the next round, "Willie" was out of his corner in a flash, and beat the Kid down to the floor before he was able to get out of his corner. The Kid got up and came back, but the bout, which lasted only four rounds, ended before he could do much damage. The main fight on the program, that between Young Harry Wills and the Dixie Kid, was a slugging contest, Young Harry having a slight edge all the way through. The Dixie Kid had a great left, but he rushed in too soon to use it, and got heated up, while Harry waited calmly and ducked. Dixie seemed to tire in the third and it looked as though he was laying on Young Harry, in order to rest and tie Harry. In the fourth, Dixie's nose got bloody from a hard punch to the face from Harry. This only seemed to make him maddier, and he punched Harry right and left in the fifth. REVIEW Washington Boy, Is decision By Referee as Athletic Club BEATS DIXIE KID ```markdown ``` YOUNG HARRY WILLS, who last Wednesday night met and defeated Dixie Kid in a six-round bout at Williams' Athletic Club Sixty-first and Sheriff road. Harry did some neat ducking, and tired Dixie out even more. In the sixth and last round, Harry worked on Dixie's sore nose, which looked pretty bad. He came in with some hard rights and fast infighting while most of Dixie's landed on Harry's back. When the fight ended, all of the spectators cried for Young Harry's hand to be raised in token of victory, and the decision was awarded him by the referee, Jeff Thomas. The next bouts will be held on July 4, at the Grove, with Billy Edwards as a feature attraction. He is the colored middleweight champion of the south, and weighs 155 pounds. He will meet Battling Barrum, of Baltimore, who weighs 165 pounds, in an eight-round match. There will be two four-round and six-round preliminaries. "Fats" Walker will referee. The first fight starts at 7:30. An extra feature attraction will be a return match with Young Harry Wills meeting Kid Jup. Detroit champion, who challenged the winner of last Wednesday's contest.

TIBBS AT A, AND T, GREENSBORO, N.C.—Roy W. Tibbs, who has for sixteen years been head of the organ and piano departments, and director of the glee’ club of Howard University, appeared in a piano recital at A. and T. College kere last Monday evening. r The artist from Washington showed rare technique and wonder- ful execution in the playing of his selections, and his descriptive ex- planation of each number made the program doubly enjoyable. | Among the numbers on the pro- gram were “Toeatta,” by Bach, “Prophet Bird,” by Schubert, “Ro- mance,” by Schubert, “Berceuse,” by Chopin, and “Le Cavalier Fan- tastique.” He also played his own ‘composition, “Marcel.” ANNACOSTIA BEATS HILLSDALE IN 11th In a game played Monday, June 24, Anacostia nosed out the Hills- dale team in the eleventh inning, with a score of 3-2. The winning run was scored when M. Levi, pitcher for the Hills- dales, weakened in the eleventh inning and allowed the Hillsdale to lose their second game of the sea- son after having won eight games in a row. Reed allowed the Hillsdales only nine hits, while Anaco8tia was gleaning cleven off Levi. Levi gave a fine exhibition of pitching, however, by fanning nine of the A. C.'s best batters. Reed struck out five. One of the most thrilling mo- ments in the game was furnished by Levi, who brought in the tying run in'the ninth inning with a single between third and shortstop. White raced home to tie the score. The game remained in a 2-2 deadlock until the eleventh inning, when, with none out, and Clay- bourne on first, Greene hit and moved Claybourne to third.

There were three men on base and two outs when the winning run was scored. R, Jackson and Lucas led the Togans at the bat, each banging out three triples. H.

Just outside of the theatre was sign number one, "Ethel Waters, in Banjoland." So far so good. The show was named "In Banjoland." I went into the theatre, and there, up in the little panel that adorns the side of the stage, I saw, "Next Week—Banjola—with Ethel Waters." That may have been a mistake. The "nd" may have been left off on the second sign. But then I went outside, and looked at some of the posters that hung around in the store windows. There it was "Ethel Waters in Banjolo." Not much difference, but noticeable.

DEMONSTRATIONS AND RIOTS GREET AMERICAN GIRL IN SOUTH AMERICA Must Wear More Clothes BUENOS AIRES, S.A.—Jose- phine Baker, the American girl who was such a sensation in Europe last season, literally took South America by storm when a near-riot followed her first appearance here last week. ```markdown ``` During the performance, fights broke out in several parts of the auditorium for no known reason at all, and police had to be called in to maintain order in the theatre. President Irigoyen, having heard of the reports of nudity that had trickled over from Europe, ordered the Harlem dancer to wear more clothes when she appeared in Buenos Aires. Miss Baker is on a world tour after having become the sensation of Paris, and after having been barred from nearly all of the theatres of Europe. About a year ago she announced her marriage to an Italian duke. The story was carried in all of the American papers, with her picture and that of the duke, who, after investigation, proved to be only her manager, who had come with her from New York. She may return to the United States soon, appearing in some of the dances which have made her famous on the continent. "INNOCENTS OF PARIS" AT THE LINCOLN From Saturday to Wednesday, June 30 to July 4, the Lincoln will show Lon Chaney's latest picture, "Where East is East." He is supported by Lupe Velez and Estelle Taylor. The story is laid in Indo-China. Thursday and Friday, July 4 and 5, we will see and hear Maurice Chevalier in "Innocents of Paris." There is a complete change of Movietone and Vitaphone acts with each change of feature photoplay. A Detroit parent of the old-fashioned inflexible type thinks they ought to put the taste back into castor oil to build up the national morale. Then I got hold of one of Washington's papers, and, bless me, it was "Banzola." After all that, I saw the show, and would you believe it, there isn't a single banjo in the whole thing except the one that's always in the orchestra. And so, I'll never believe in signs any more. Ethel Waters Stars Even without a single banjo, "Banjola" as the manager informed me was the correct name, sets a high standard for other presentations to shoot at. They have some of the best colored artists over there this week that have graced the stage since road shows went out. First, of course, comes Ethel Waters, who recently starred in a Vitaphone picture, "On With the Show," which is now playing its premier in New York. This week Miss Waters sings the theme song of that picture at the Howard. The name is "Am I Blue," and Miss Waters really puts it over. Next comes Putney (pronounced Pootney this week) Dandridge, who does more of his piano plunking, playing whatever the audience yells for. Usually it's "Nagasaki" and "Four or Five Times." Ralph Cooper, tra la la, does some esthetic dancing while "Pootney" plays. Ralph also announced a song by "Washington's leading tenor," and then turned around and sang it himself. The tenor must have been sick. Troy Brown does a dance in a bathing suit on the number, and brought down the house. Lovejoy and Sumler Ale Lovejoy and Octavia Sumler do some of the comic singing that they have so often done in road shows, and got one of the biggest hands of the show. Johnny Lee Long (I wonder if that's his real name) does some plain and fancy preaching, which includes some of the longest words in Webster's, but doesn't mean a thing. Dances on Skates Bambo McCarver does a tap dance on skates and doesn't faw down once. Ethel Waters comes back and sings some request numbers, and her accompanists play a duet, piano and cornet. A couple of sketches and a little kittenish number in blue with white fur by the chorus ends the show. In all in, it's quite a good show, and a full night's entertainment. "Weary River" at Republic "Weary River," the show that we've all been looking for, is coming up to the Republic for five days beginning July 6. Here's what our dear friend, the Republic manager, says about "Weary River": "Weary River" flowing on and on to nowhere—just like this boy—until he found his soul in a burning kiss, and set it to music." After reading that announcement, I just know you're going to see it. Anyway, it's one of the greatest underworld stories ever filmed. Here's a little secret about "Weary River." When Dick Barthelmess gets up to sing the theme sing, don't you believe it's him 7th and T Sts. Northwest Phone, North 6224 THE DANCE OF THE TAMARAN ETHEL WATERS, the dusky little maiden who sings "Am I Blue?" so convincingly at the Howard this week. This number is the theme song of her Vitaphone picture, "On With the Show," and she sang it over the radio recently in a Vitaphone Jubi lee Hour. singing. It isn't. Dick just stands in front of the camera and goes through the motions of singing. Somebody else makes the noise, but you can't see him. It was the same way in "Show Boat". That wasn't really Laura LaPlante singing. It was only a double. Laura wasn't making a sound. The Broadway's opening up again next week, and we are assured of some of the best of talking pictures there.

Notwithstanding his effort to purify and concentrate the party power in white hands in the South, and knowing the Southern racial hatred and attitude toward social mingling, his duty demanded that the wife of Congressman DePriest be invited to the White House, and along with the wives of other Congressmen she was invited. While the furore of that event was raging, the President had an opportunity to appoint a Negro to a post-mastership in Virginia and forthwith the appointment came. While he has not made an outstanding appointment, his recent action portrays him as a man firm in his conviction, for right and not easily swayed by arbitrary opinion.

Thursday of next week will be July 4th, our National Independence Day and 142nd anniversary of the adoption of our Constitution. The Constitution and the observance of law is very much in discussion. A salient feature of our Constitution is its formidable apparatus of provisions against changes; and that only 20 amendments have been added to it in the 142 years. Therefore, ours is called a Constitutional Government. Now the thought arises, why is it that this Constitutional Government is so persistent in enforcing certain sections or amendments while others are practically dead letters? Is it an honest government, a loyal government which will permit millions of its native people to be completely disfranchised, and thereby nullify their citizenship? We call this our Independence Day. Can the American Negro say that he is, or assert his independence? He cannot say that he is independent, nor can he assert his independence. No man is independent who cannot vote and who is proscribed by law and custom. With these two facts before us, and if we were of a less optimistic nature, there would be little for us to celebrate this 4th of July. The Colonists had far less grievances against the "Iron Hand of England" when they revolted and fought for eight years to gain the independence we shall celebrate next Thursday. We are disfranchised, segregated, proscribed, taxed without representation and economically eliminated from the various industries of this, our native land, which is boasted of as "The land of the free and the home of the brave." And yet, this land is not brave enough to free ALL OF ITS CITIZENS. GRIST FOR THE MILL Out on top that sacred hill Stands our Capitol, grand and still; But the noise inside will never cease As long as we have senators like Cole. Please. He was sent here to help make laws, That constitute our peace, But instead of sticking to his job, He's really out of place. Social standards he's trying to set For the family of Oscar DePriest. Now let's tell the senator, Who hales from Caroline. That the nation's capitol is not the place To draw the color line. Our president has plenty of money, And secretaries there are three; But they wouldn't even try to select Mrs. Hoover's guests at tea. Our constitution has been amended, And our rights are certainly in it; So if he goes to Heaven or hell, He'll find some Negroes in it. TOO MANY DOCTORS Bishop Jones, of the A.M.E. Zion Church, holding conference in Boston, advised young graduates to scatter out. We may have so many doctors in Washington that one has to stumble over twenty-five looking for a good one. He might have added that we have just as many undertakers to pick you up in case you should "faw down go boom" while looking for a good doctor; for when it comes to undertakers and doctors, the last shall be first and the first shall be last. N. A. A. C. P. The National Auditorium admits colored people, and there was a nice crowd of them, some white babies but many blacks. How it? There are so many them.

FORUM PRAISES DePRIEST The Editor: The Spingarn Medal for next year already belongs to Oscar DePriest, in my opinion. It is a tonic of no mean virtue which the Honorable Representative, his secretary, and his wife, have injected in the system of the Negro body-politic of these many states in the brief while they have been with us. So many of us who live and train under the regime of the Bourbons and bigots of the South with their segregation and racial integrity weapons, easily take on an inferiority complex. In the presence of white men, those afflicted with the inferiority aimment show it by ready resentment to fancied insults or they stop over with graciousness. Though he deprecates the attempt to place upon him the role of political race champion, nevertheless Mr. DePriest has by reason of his acts played the part eminently. Mrs. DePriest at the White House, in Congressional galleries, or in other capacities has done well for herself and us. Morris Lewis, whom I have known for years, a leading N.A.A.C.P. worker in Chicago, moves through the halls of Congress freely as to the manner born cleverly making history for us. Mr. Lewis is Mr. DePriest. DEDICATED TO COLEMAN BLEASE But hark! Remember—every court must have its fool. You do well, Cole, to jest and rant and rage At what your black brothers do— Who forge ahead in every walk of life While you, poor you, weakling you Get the plaudits due to clowns. You show the weakling's dread of strong men. We struggle shoulder to shoulder with you. And in the struggle.

And in the struggle. Our physical strength; Yea, our MENTAL strength, Is so far above your own, That your fear of us drives you to greater asininity. You are too much the weakling and too dense To learn the motif of life's symphony— The world's too big a thing, And you, too weak a thing To sway it in its march of progress; The world's too serious, And you're too light of mind, For it to heed your roaritorious brayings; The world's too full of knowledge, And you, too full of ignorance For it to take you seriously; The world's too full of sunshine And you, too full of gloom and hell For it to wallow in your mental filth; The world's so far advanced, And you so infantile, That it gives to you Its scornful pity as it passes on.

And the irony of life is that Even Negro children serenely go their way Laughing at you in glee, As they would laugh at other comic animals— Sparkplug, Felix, or Crazy Cat. Some Negroes are big among Negroes. They fight readily, as "Nev" Thomas would say, when the cause is for little or nothing—and the opponent is another Negro who is trying to do something constructive. DePriest is carrying the battle where it counts. The fast tightening cordon of segregation and jim-crow measures, political, social and economic, has caused even many of our wild radical youth in the last few years to despair, accept conditions, and lament loudly of dreadful times. Oscar DePriest, Mr. Hoover, Al Smith, the Devil and the Deep Sea alternatives of the Southern democrats (Prohibition or the Negro), the entrance of Negroes into democratic primaries, and the growing recognition of intelligent white people that economic and educational factors are improving Negroes, give us every reason for optimism. E. B. Henderson POETS' CORNER SELF-DETERMINATION The Philosophy of the American Negro By Leslie Pinkney Hill Four things we will not do, in spite of all That demons plot for our decline and fall; We bring four benedictions which we meek Unto the proud are privileged to speak. Four gifts by which amidst all stern-browed races We move with kindly hearts and and uplifted faces. We will not hate. Law, custom, creed and caste. All notwithstanding, here we hold us fast. Down through the years, the mighty ships of state Have all been broken on the rocks of hate. We will not cease to laugh and multiply. We slough off trouble and refuse to die. The Indian stood unyielding, stark and grim; We saw him perish and we learned of him To mix a grain of philosophic mirth With all the crass injustices of earth. We will not use the ancient carnal tools. These never won, yet centuries of schools, Of priests, and all the work of brush and pen Have not availed to win the wisest men From futile faith in battleship and shell; We see them fall, and mark that folly well. We will not waver in our loyalty. No strange voice reaches us across the sea; No crime at home shall stir us from this soil. Ours is the guerdon, ours the blight of toil. bight of toil. But raised above it by a faith sublime We choose to suffer here and hide our time. ```markdown ``` THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY.

This playground is for the children of all sections of the city. The parents would do well to permit their children to visit there. If children live at a distance it is suggested that they be permitted by their parents to attend the playground, at least once or twice a week. The more children attending this place will be a logical argument for more and better equipment. there The Wellington Adams class of music met at the residence of Mrs. Herbert Tancil on Friday, June 21.

THE BOY EDITOR By Winifred Kirkland 1. Time—February, 1910. 2. Place—Mapletown, N.J. Setting: The Chronicle Press Building. Mr. Alan Campbell's home, and the Mapletown High School. 3. Characters: Jeanie Campbell, assistant editor of "Mentor"; Alan Campbell, editor of "Chronicle"; H. Spencer Briggs, editor of "Mentor"; John Dorrell, principal of Mapletown High School. Synopsis: Spencer Briggs was a problem to John Dorrell and Jeanie Campbell, because of his unfriendliness. Briggs had been writing articles for the Chronicle, and had the ability to write for newspapers. At one time he won a prize for writing the best editorial for the Chronicle. Through the efforts of Jeanie he was elected editor-in-chief of the "Mentor". Briggs was not interested in his work, and neglected his part of the work, leaving it for Jeanie and Hiram to do. A debate was scheduled, the subject of which was to be "School Against a Town Hall," between the "Chronicle" and the "Mentor." On the night of the debate Briggs; who was supposed to deliver the speech, failed to appear, because of his interest in a monograph that Mr. Alan Campbell was to have published in New York. All the classmates of Briggs became disgusted with him, because of his failure to appear on that very important occasion. Mr. Dorell, who had at all times relied upon Briggs, lost all confidence in him. Briggs realized he had been blind and at once he awakened to his sense of duty. At once he begins working hard and puts his best efforts in the work of the "Mentor." Briggs is finally allowed to deliver a speech in favor of a town hall. In this speech he states that if they succeed in getting a town hall, then the hall will give them a school. After the delivery of this speech the town was successful in securing a town hall and a school. Briggs once again became popular among his classmates, and a job was promised him, working with the "Chronicle." Journalistic Value This story demonstrates the sense of duty an editor-in-chief should have for the success of his paper. Mr. Henry Clarke, of Pendleton street, is out again after a brief illness. Miss Louise Bias continues ill at Dr. Carson's Hospital. She is improving after a very serious operation. Mr. Marion Jackson is indisposed at his home on N. Henry street. Mrs. Harry White, of 1014 Pendleton street, is improving at Provident Hospital. Mrs. Lillian Holland attended the Dunbar High School commencement to see her niece, Miss Evelyn Edmonds, graduate. Miss Edmonds plans to enter Howard University this fall. A birthday party given by Mr. John Armstrong of Princess street, June 17, was attended by friends from Washington, D.C. and vicinity. The special guests were Miss Wilmer Jenkins and Mr. Charles R. King of Washington. Mr. Paul Ramsey and some friends of Washington attended the dinnerette of Henry Roberts, of S. Alfred street, June 16. Mrs. Anna L. Jones, of N. West street, left the city Sunday, June 23, to accompany Mrs. L. White C. LESLIE FRAZIER, Editor TRIBUNITE'S PLEDGE 1. I will never use the word "nigger." 2. I will learn all that I can about the history and traditions of my Race. 3. I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race, and I will champion my Race wherever I may hear such slander. 4. I will be proud that I am a Negro because God made me one, and, being a Negro, I will do all that I can to add honor to my Race. Further, we find that the success of the paper depends entirely on the co-operation of the associate editors and the student body at large. From reading this story one can clearly see what a great part a school paper can play in a small town. ONE NIGHT One night I came home from the movies at 11 o'clock. I went to bed and a big fat ghost came in. I took my water pistol and shot at him but the water came back in my face. I pitched a book at him but it came back in my face too. I pitched my pillow at him; it came back in my face. I had pitched so many things at him and they had all come back to me you would not have been able to find me for the things. The ghost took me up on the roof and kicked me off. Soon the alarm rang. When I awoke I was on the floor, for it was only a dream. B. L.

The grass stirs in the breeze, And plays the sweetest tune; The sunlight loves to linger near, To hear the melodies. The grass sways low at night Dew-fringed with fairy pearls; And moon beams glimmer 'er And moon beams glimmer o'er the lea. the lea, The fairy troops to light.
