It Was Established 42 Years Ago and Has Developed into a Town of Growing Power and Achievement. When a handful of enterprising Negroes with vision and determination, founded the all-Negro town of Mound Bayou, in Mississippi, everybody expected its early downfall. Such remarks as these were constantly encountered by the young pioneers: "Negroes can't rule themselves!" "They won't 'pull' together"; "The town will fail in five years." Well, Mound Bayou is still alive and kicking—kicking high at that. The Founders. The first plans for establishing town were laid by Isaiah T. Mo and his cousin, Benjamin T.

Montgomery T. Green, located Negroes pupe the L.N.O. and families, pitched that time this pice even a shack The first plans for establishing Mound Bayou as a real town were laid by Isaiah T. Montgomery, a former slave, and his cousin, Benjamin T. Green, July 12, 1887. These two hardy and farsighted Negroes purchased one thousand acres of land from the L.N.O. and T. Railroad Company, and with their heroic families, pitched their tents upon their new acquisition. At that time this part of Mississippi was a vast wilderness—not even a shack was in sight. Two Intrepid Hunters. For companionship, the Montgomerys and Greens were forced to content themselves with forest-bears, panthers, dear, wolves, wildcats and raccoons. Of course the animals were loathe to part with the sovereignty of this wilderness, hence the battle between man and beast was bitterly waged. It is unnecessary to point out the victors. Moreover it is conceded that Green and Montgomery were two of the most intrepid hunters who ever entered the Mississippi Valley; and that their skill with the rifle was unequalled. The Little Community Receives Its First Sorrow Amidst the progress and happiness that crowned the efforts of these people, fell the first sorrow. Benjamin Green, one of the co-founders, was killed by a worthless trump over a trivial matter. This sudden blow sadened these hardy folk, for they realized fully the loss of their great lead- The battle with the Mississippi animals having been won, it was not long before giant oaks and trees of gum and cypress began to fall before the swing of the axe-men. In their stead were soon erected sturdy dwelling places of strong timber. Wells were driven to supply fresh water in the place of spring water which was during those times the only available water supply. The Origin of the Name Mound Bayou The original two families had now grown into a colony of respectable size. One day, some one popped the question: What shall we call our new settlement? The answer was obvious. These early settlers had undergone much hardship in overcoming the difficulties resulting from the numerous mounds and bayous that abounded near the site of the embryonic community. So with a unanimous gusto, the name "Mound Bayou" was adopted. Pioneers Are Organized Into Home Owning Community Montgomery and Green then began to organize the pioneers into a home-owning community. A portion of the original thousand acres purchased by the founders was divided into town lots and sold to the settlers on long terms; while other settlers were able to secure from the railroad company, farmland upon long leases. ```markdown ``` THE LIBRARY Illustrated Feature Section Two Intrepid Hunters.

GREEN County Training School, at Mound Bay it did under the well-known cumstances surrounding life in sissippi, the entire experiment viewed with some trepidation. Mound Bayou is Incorporated The situation became, however, an entirely favorable one, consequently in 1898 the town was incorporated. I. T. Montgomery, the surviving cofounder, was elected its first mayor. There are now between 1,000 and 1,500 people in the incorporated town. In what is called the Mound Bayou Community, there are around 3,000 Negro men and women. Mound Bayou Has Numerous Busi- ness Organizations The progress of these people is exemplified in the extent of their business organizations. The following are some of the enterprises of the town: The Mound Bayou Bottling Works, manufacturing soda water, ginger ale, gay ola and other soft drinks. A Burial Association. Two Steam Gins. One Electric Gin. Two Drug Stores. One Hotel. Mound Bayou has all the conveniences of a modern city. It is the only town in the United States where the jail became a useless appendage and was abolished. It has a black mayor, a black board of aldermen, chief of police and all Negro officials. THE HOME OF THE MAYFIELD MUSEUM Three Barber Shops. One Electric Shoe Repair Shop. One Job Printing plant. One Weekly Newspaper. Ten Mercantile Establishments. Two Service Stations. One Auto Repair Shop. One Federal Farm Loan Association. Two Undertakers. Mound Bayou has its share of churches, there being six. Perhaps it was the religious influence exerted by these churches that caused the abolition of the Mound Bayou jail. Their School System The following schools are effectively handling the educational situation in this bright town. The Mound Bayou Consolidated School District, in which is located Bolivar County Training School. This school owns real estate worth $150,000 and has a student enrollment of 1,000. The Baptist Normal, a high school, has an enrollment of 150 students. Has Effective Municipal Government Mount Bayou is governed in an orderly manner, by a mayor and a board of aldermen: B. A.

The town is also well lighted by electricity; the climate is healthful and the winters pleasantly mild. In the professional field, it contains one lawyer, one medical doctor, and one dentist. Have Arranged Million-Dollar Project The people of Mound Bayou have an old-fashioned community spirit, also. They have recently organized a Mound Bayou Foundation to raise one million dollars for the development of their town. Recently there was a celebration of Home Coming Week and Founder's Day (July 7-13, 1929). The very permanency and stability of this pioneering community has attracted the interest of the entire country; particularly when one of its distinguished citizens, Mrs. Mary C. Booze, attracted widespread attention as national Republican Committeewoman for the State of Mississippi. Will There Be an All-Negro State? Mound Bayou has often been discussed as the possible nucleus of an all-Negro state. It is not entirely improbable that this may be brought to pass. Many authorities, both white and black, have predicted the establishment of an all-Negro state in America, and have indicated that Mound Bayou will be the base of such a project.

Both of us knew that cadaver.

August 3, 1929 SYNOPSIS A series of murders in the mysterious octagonal tower room of Selwyn House have been preceded by sounds as of some monstrous creeping reptile. These murders have been further complicated by the missing bodies of the victims. Ezra Selwyn and his Haitian serving woman have been found murdered, and when their bodies are about to be removed by the undertaker they are found to be missing. His unknown Haitian nephew, Garland Selwyn, has appeared on the scene at about this time. The last person murdered is Alene Hardmore, mysterious and giant-sized woman detective. Her body, guarded by Tom Frederick and his friend Alec Jonas, two detectives who are engaged in clearing up the mystery, has been moved to the undertaking establishment of Al Jarton, Frederick's friend. Here, a peculiar reluctance of the coroner, Dr. Varant, to allow a close examination of the scalped head of the victim, had led Frederick to an attempt to make the examination secretly. The presence of an Indian scalping knife on the floor by the body of an earlier victim has a very significant bearing on the case. When Frederick attempts to examine the body of the murdered Alene Hardmore, he is blocked on every turn by Garland Selwyn, who claims that he has orders to prevent everyone, not excluding Frederick from such an examination. —NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY— INSTALMENT VII WITHOUT stopping to reason about the matter, I was out and after Al Jarton before he had taken two steps across the space that divided us from the swinging door of the alley entrance to the morgue. My eyes travelled with the straight aim and the swift speed of an arrow to the one spot in that gloomy interior toward which the undertaker was striding two steps ahead of me—the cooling board on which not an hour before I had stood over the mutilated corpse of that strange black woman detective, Alene Hardmore. The white covering gleamed eerily through the dusky light. It was drawn the length of the long narrow space, its uneven line weirdly suggestive of what lay beneath it. I heard the sigh of relieved anxiety as it hissed from Al Jarton's lips when his eyes rested on that undisturbed covering. I was at his shoulder as he lifted it. We both looked down and—gasped. The body upon which we gazed was not that of the woman whom I had left there KEEPIN Gruesome and H ERT WILLIAM THE CAKEWALK Bert introduced his famous "cake walk" into London in 1903, at the behest of the Mother Queen, who having heard so much about this new step from America, was anxious to see the great actor perform it.

I looked across at Al; he was looking at me, a dazed expression of wondering surprise in his eyes. "It looks like they had a lookout posted somewhere up the alley, Al" I said. "He must have been slow getting to them or maybe it was a matter of their delaying too long to trade cadavers, otherwise they would have had things all set before you got in and a casual look would have left everything O. K. till too late for a hot trail. But we've got that anyhow. Let's follow it." "Where—Who—How?" The three questions tumbled over each other. Al looked at me as if he thought I was daffy. I grinned.

I turned and looked at Al keenly. His eyes were suspiciously red. I knew Al; I had known him since we were both boys. "Say, Al," I shot the question at him abruptly; something was beginning to dawn in my mind as a possibility, "how did it happen that you overslept this morning?" "I had a few drinks with Doc Varant and this guy Selwyn after we left the ice box. You know how it is, Tom. My work sort of gets a man. All the excitement and the nature of it—well, a fellow must naturally takes a drink after he's through. And this thing was getting me anyway." Al didn't look at me as he spoke. "Um-hum." I nodded my head and moved toward the door leading into the front. We had closed the alley entrance and locked it securely from within as was the usual custom. Al followed me almost apologetically. When we were in his office I turned to him briefly and spoke rather curtly. "Now, Al, I don't know whether or not I've got the right hunch, but I'm going to follow it. Maybe doctor Varant and Garland Selwyn aren't working together. Maybe they didn't tank you up on purpose and get you to promise any fool thing like letting one of them stay on guard there last night or—rather this morning.

I know I ain't been entertainin' him down here, leastwise if he only comes on invitation. Go to it old man and count me in to do anything I can to help you." There was actual relief in Al Jarton's voice and in his expressive brown face as he looked up at me. "All right then," I said. 'Do you know where this bird, Selwyn hangs out here in town?' "N-no, now I come to think of it, I don't. Never heard and don't recall that I have heard anyone else saying. But—" a sudden light of half knowledge dawned in his eyes—"Old Diaron might know something about him." "Come on and drive me out to Selwyn house, then, Al; we'll interview Diaron. Meanwhile we'll keep it under our hats about what's happened back there." I pointed with my thumb back toward the morgue. "The less said, the soonest mended. And the fewer people in a secret keeps it better. Just tell Ben not to let anybody else back there until you come back. He will keep his promise if he makes one." Al nodded and together we stepped out into the main room. Ben was sweeping out the little lobby entrance. He looked up as we came into view. "They was a call for you las' night Mistah Jahton—sed it was kinda portant but nevah mind botherin' you till you come down this mawnin." "What was it. Ben?"

The fundamental reason why society frowns upon illegitimate children is so that they will not become a public burden. If parents are made legally responsible for their children, there is more possibility that these children will grow up well-fed and educated to take a proper place in the social scheme. It is harder to make a living in cold and temperate countries, hence illegitimacy is a more serious problem, and morality is more strictly enforced there than in regions where food is abundant. For this reason Italians are less prudish than English; India less so than China—and so on. As you see, morality is largely economic, People seldom realize this fact and confuse it with religion. But the two do not necessarily go together. India has more religion than perhaps any other country in the world and probably less morality in our sense of the word. Italy is more religious than England, but situations that are a commonplace in Italy would be a scandal in England. A child which is born because desired usually turns out well, in spite of obstacles. We have many illustrious examples to prove this. Leonardo HAIR ROOT HAIR GROWER is a powerful stimulant.

I thought I might as well come along and he's promised to let me share in the secret. Haven't you, Al?" I was out on the grass now and Al was beside me as I faced about. "Sure!" he nodded heartily. "I gotta hunch it'll mean more for Mr. Frederick, here, to hear about the things that need to be told than for you to tell me." He smiled engagingly at old Diaron. "Let's sit out here on the steps while you relieve your mind." Without waiting for a reply, Al seated himself astride the same lion that old Diaron had been dangling his feet over when we drove up. I sat down on the lower step and Diaron found a seat on the one just above and facing us both from above and between. For a moment he sat very silent. His black face was grave. He seemed to be weighing something very carefully before he spoke. Then with a great sighing, in-drawn breath, such as a swimmer takes before plunging into cold water he began: "You know, messieurs," he began, "I was born in the jungles of Haiti. My father he was a papaloi an' my folks they' were of the what you call, voodoo. A papaloi an' is voodoo priest-man. The man who call the gods for us when we want to do the worship. Now the worship not what you think it is. It not evil—it good. Only evil he sometime come into it by evil priest-man or evil mamaloi—she priest-woman, she help papaloi. "But I not to tell you about the voodoo good. It is the voodoo evil, I tell you and you not believe me—maybe. But it is true. The other mens who sometime have come into voodoo jungle not believe either but they see—see with their own eyes these things I tell you an—" Old Diaron lowered his voice. He looked behind him fearfully as a sharp breeze whipped a tree top snappingly in the sudden silence. A small black cloud was sweeping across the sky toward the sun. Far back in the tangled grasses there came a soft rustling. A sinuous green body was slipping into the shadows as we looked across the weed grown space that had been a rose-garden. The old man went on. His voice was scarcely above a whisper. His eyes were watchful and fear sat in them. It was as if he feared that the very grasses might have ears to hear the fearful and uncanny things he was telling and tongues to cry aloud the monstrous tales. "In this voodoo land from which I come, there are fearsome things that no man may speak of easily, messieurs. It is because of these things that have come some of our customs in that land, men think strange and sometimes, even funny. One of these customs is the burying of our dead under the strong, big rock that a strong man cannot lift without much labor.
