LACK OF HEAT CLOSES SCHOOL FOR CRIPPLES
Classes Will Not Be Held Until First Week In January
Failure of the furnace department of the District Engineers office to find the defects in the old hot-air heating plant at the McGruder School, Seventeenth and M streets, northwest, caused the closing of Cripples School, which just opened November 1, for lack of heat. While the thermometer outside was hovering around zero, the temperature in the school was stubborn and would not respond to the slow heating plant at McGruder.
The juniper fined from 5 a.m., to 4 p.m. Tuesday, and could not persuade the thermometers to rise over 52 degrees in one room and 58 in another.
First Assistant Superintendent Wilkinson stated that they made every effort and every test to secure heat, for he did not want to dismiss the school. However, it was necessary, and on Wednesday morning the busses were held until it was definitely determined to close the school and return the children home.
There is a steam heating plant in the Sumner School about 40 feet away, with two boilers, only one of which is needed for the Sumner School. The McGruder building will be connected up with the heating plant in the Sumner School, and steam heating radiators will be installed. Since the schools will go on the holiday vacation on December 20, the Cripples School will not open until January 2, 1930.

Jim Crow signs on the doors of the public waiting room at Gallinger Hospital were removed this week after a visit by a Tribune reporter.
A complaint to the Tribune sent a reporter to the hospital on Saturday, where Dr. Bacock, superintendent, told him that the signs were present when he took charge and he did not know who were responsible for the signs. The doctor said the director of welfare had authority to take the signs down.

Scott, only colored member of the Public Welfare Committee, stated that she did not know the signs were up and said she had not visited the hospital since last summer.

School To Put Money In Two Colored Banks

ment it was self-evident that Francis Junior High School would be in the forefront of the junior high schools of the District. The enrollment is 743 with 32 teachers. Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools, spoke on the seven objectives of education before the association. He emphasized "good home membership," "The Right Use of Leisure," and "Know Thyself."
The association was addressed by F. O. Nichols, of the Social Hygiene Society of New York. He said his desire is to give the children a better understanding of themselves. That young people should be taught of the problems of the home and how to maintain themselves, that young people are marrying without any knowledge of marriage relations and responsibilities, including the economic needs and parenthood responsibilities. Many men do not have the ambition to make a living. Often the young wife wants to work and avoid motherhood. Misunderstanding soon manifests itself and soon the family is on the rocks. The association named Mrs. M. H. Plummer, Miss H. L. Sparks, Mrs. M. M. Jones, W. L. Savoy, and L. A. Alexander as a permanent library committee.
Refreshments were served in the cafeteria, and the new addition was inspected. Mrs. S. E. Mason is president.

Stomach Disorders First Revealed by Coated Tongue
Stomach Disorders First Revealed by Coated Tongue
Your tongue is nothing more than the upper end of your stomach and intestines. It is the first thing your doctor looks at. It tells at a glance the condition of your digestive system—and physicians say that 90% of all sickness starts with stomach and bowel trouble.
A coated tongue is a danger signal of those digestive disorders which lead to so many kinds of serious illness. It tells why the least exertion tires you out; why you have pains in the bowels, gas, sour stomach, dizzy spells.
Coating on the tongue is a sign that you need Tanlac—the medicine which has helped thousands who were physical wrecks from stomach and bowel troubles—who had "tried everything" in vain and about given up hope.
Tanlac contains no mineral drugs; it is made of barks, herbs and roots. Get a bottle from your druggist today. Your money back if it doesn't help you.

SCIPIO JONES HEADS MOSAIC TEMPLARS
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (Special to the Associated Negro Press)—At a meeting of the National Committee of Management of the Mosaic Templars of America held here last Saturday, Attorney Seipio A. Jones, one of the most illustrious Negroes in American life today, was elected as National Grand Master of this well-known fraternal beneficiary society which has been insuring the lives of members of our group for more than forty-six years. Grand Master Elliott died last week. Attorney Jones has been the National Attorney-General of the Order for more than a quarter of a century and his superior qualifications and experience especially fit him for this highly responsible position. His election was unanimous.
Attorney Jones announces that he will make public soon his plans for the future as regards a nation-wide campaign that he is contemplating in the interest of the Order.

the construction of such a building at a total cost not to exceed $460,000.
For general expenses the sum of $110,000 is estimated. That is an increase of $15,000 over the 1930 appropriation. The items under general expenses include athletics, $19,000.
The total amount to be expended for general expenses in the next fiscal year is $378,590. The sum of $268,590 will come from private sources.
Estimates for Freedmen's Hospital in the budget total $424,000, an increase of $163,000 over the appropriation for the current fiscal year. Salaries and wages total $261,600, from which the sum of $80,160 is deducted for lodging and subsistence furnished, making the net estimate for this purpose $181,500. This is an increase of $6,485 in salaries, of which the sum of $3,600 represents an increase in the number of employees and the sum of $2,885 represents actual increases in salaries.
Parham Denies West Point Discrimination
(Continued from page 1)
tions with them are strained and absolutely false," Parham said. "I realize that orders can not be issued governing friendships and that such a matter is purely personal. Statements to the effect that cadets have been ordered not to talk to me are false.
No "Signs of Prejudice"
"Since July 1, when I entered, my treatment at the hands of officers and cadets has been fair and never under any circumstances has there been any sign of discrimination or prejudice."
Parham added that "all the officers are giving me a square deal." "I have participated in every activity with other fourth class men from the minute of my arrival and in addition to the military drills have participated in intraumural sports, playing baseball, basketball, football and several other sports. At the football trips to Boston, New Haven, and New York City, I marched with my company and sat in the stands exactly as the other cadets." Mathematics has given Parham considerable trouble and he admitted that since the first week's instructionse in September he has been deficient.
"During the first week," he said, "I asked for and received extra instruction on two occasions at conferences with the officer instructors. When in company with a number of other fourth class men I was posted as being deficient we were all ordered to attend conferences four times a week from 5:10 p.m., to 6:10 p.m. Three other cadets were in my section. This is ordinarily free."
When asked if he had received cadet coaching at night Parham replied that he never had requested it. In all of the other academy military subjects, he said, he was proficient.
Maj. Gen. William R. Smith, superintendent of the academy, also deplored the publicity Parham has received, and stated that it was having a most harmful effect.
"This young man is absolutely on his own," the general said, "exactly as every other cadet, and to single him out merely because of his color is un-American."
"Parham's academic standing in mathematics has been commented on in the press," Gen. Smith continued.
"While he is deficient in that subject, at one time there were eighteen other cadets with lower marks than his and at the present time, there are ten below him. In Parham's class at present a total of 42 cadets are deficient in mathematics, while in the third class there are 61 cadets below our required standards."

DEPRIEST AND WIFE WITNESS FOOTBALL GAME
Congressman Returns To City After Visit to Philadelphia
Congressman and Mrs. Oscar DePriest returned to the Capital on Thanksgiving night from Philadelphia, where they attended the Howard-Lincoln football game. They are at home at 419 U street, northwest.
The Congressman spent Friday and Saturday in clearing up his desk for the opening of the regular session of the 71st Congress on When the clock struck twelve, Monday, the Congressman from the First Congressional District of Illinois, Oscar DePriest, was in his seat. It has been 28 years since a Negro sat in the regular opening session of the Congress of the United States. The first session which opened last April was a special session and none of the regular committees of the House were appointed, therefore Congressman DePriest had not been appointed to a committee.
The committees are being made up this week and several civil associations of the District have passed resolutions asking that Mr. DePriest be placed on the District Committee of the House.
Of the 435 members of the House 287 are Republicans, 165 are Democrats, one Farm-Labor, and two vacancies. Because of the large Republican majority in the House, the Republicans are planning to increase their membership on all committees from 13 to 14, leaving the Democrats 7 members, as all committees have 21 members. This will make about 130 vacancies to be filled. DePriest may get on two committees.
PRESIDENT ASKS FOR COMMISSION FOR HAITIANS
President Herbert Hoover, in his message to Congress, Tuesday, stated that he would appoint a commission to investigate conditions in that country if Congress approves.
The President said there are about seven hundred marines, "but it is a much more difficult problem, the solution of which is still obscure."
It is reported that Senator William H. King, Democrat of Utah, will introduce a resolution asking the Senate committee on foreign relations to report on measures which will permit the Haitian people to set up and foster a government of their own, which allows them to assume control of their civil and political affairs and hasten the withdrawal of military forces.
President Barno, of Haiti, in an address on November 27, said he would not be a candidate to succeed himself. He has been in office since 1922, and he was re-elected in 1926 by a council appointed by himself.

Wins High Favor With New Yorkers
The snappy appearance of girls like Madeline Belt has much to do with the success of "Connie's Hot Chocolates," the new comedy hit conceived by Leonard Harper, now appearing in New York.
When talking about her rise to popularity she said, "One thing is certain. I never let the audience see me without my hair smooth and evade color. I learned to do it right, by working a little La-Em-Strait hair dressing into the hair, then brush it. That changes it to the condition it is in now. I have seen La-Em-Strait make the most stubborn hair of men w. a.l. as women stay back so smooth and even you wouldn't know it ever looked any different."
You will like La-Em-Strait hair dressing better than anything you have ever used. Takes about 30 seconds. All drug stores from New York to California have the 25c and 50c sizes now that it l. the most popular of all hair dressings.
Weak and Nervous
MRS. S. Overton, of 1403
Thirteenth Ave., South,
Nashville, Tenn., writes:
"About a year ago, I had
a nervous breakdown. I
had been very much worried,
and this caused me
to be extremely nervous,
so that I did not sleep well
at night. I would wake in
the morning feeling worm
and haggard.
"I cannot say that I suffered
so much pain—just
weak, tired and run-down.
I read so much about Cardui
and how it helped other
ladies, I decided to try it, as
I was getting out of heart.
"After my first bottle, I
rested better at night, so
felt better in day time. I
kept on taking Cardui until I felt well and strong.
Cardui did wonders for me."

However, Resources of
Order Ranks them in First
Among Fraternals
(By J. A. G. Lu Valley
Proclamation No. 1, Series 1,
sent out from the office of 8. W-
Green, Supreme Chancellor of the
Knights of Pythias, speaking of
the last. biannual session held. in
Indainapolis, says: “The session
just closed ‘marked another step
forward in the onward march of
our great order in progress
prosperity and gives us additional
strength for a wider scope of use-
fulness in the uplift of mankind.”
Just above this statement we
find there was a decrease of 163
lodges in the past. two years. There
was a decrease of 36,701 members
in that period and a decrease of
“endowment in Treasuries” of
$265,944.99 in that same périod.
‘Therefore, we are at a loss to know
wherein “the step forward in pro-
gress and prosperity” ean be cited
with a loss of 168 lodges, 36,701
members and more than a quarter
of million dollars? And if that
ratio of decrease begets “additional
strength,” what is necessary to
produce ‘weakness?
However, taking the Supreme,
Grand and local lodges as a whole,
according to the resources repre-
sented in this proclamation, the
K. P's have nearly $12,000,000 in
resources.
‘The resources show in bonds and
mortgages owned, $1,580,196.32;
Endowment in treasuries, $1,117,-
086.23; Grand Lodge Funds on
hand, | $68,688.45; Grand Lodge

Bonds and Mortgages owned $344,-
890; Endowment in treasuries,
$655,031.37; Grand Court Funds on
hand, $458,983.13; Grand Court
property owned, $780,175.90 and
Subordinate Court property owned,
$248,266.05. This makes the grand
total resources of the K. P's, $11)-

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY. DECEMBER 6. 1929
REV. H. T. MEDFORD BISHOP MATTHEWS RETURNS FROM TELLS OF TRIALS OF THE CAROLINAS AFRICAN WORK
Leaves for Chicago Attend Meeting of Federal Council
Rev. H. T. Medford, secretary-treasurer, department of foreign missions of the A. M. E. Zion Church with headquarters here, returned to the city Saturday night from a twelve-days' visitation to six annual conferences of his denomination, meeting in Chester and Spartanburg, S. C., Concord, Hickory, Laurinburgh and Elizabethtown, N. C. At each place he delivered addresses and sermons touching the work of the department which he represents. He states that the boll weavil had greatly damaged the crops of the farmers in the Western part of Sout Carolina and Eastern North Carolina.
He was elated over the fact that his son Booker T. was appointed pastor of a circuit in the vicinity of Salisbury, N. C. by Bishop L.W. Kyles, of the Western North Carolina Conference, convening at Hickory, N. C. It was in this conference that Dr. Medford received his second pastoral appointment twenty-one years ago. He recalls that at that time Rev. L. W. Kyles now bishop of the conference, and Dr. T. W. Wallace of this city, now secretary of the Ministerial Brotherhood of the Denomination, served as secretaries of that annual conference.
Rev. Medford left for Chicago Monday afternoon to attend a meeting of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America.
PASTOR SURPRISED
The members and friends of Lane C.M.E. Church, through the Pastor's Aid Society, of which Mrs. E. Griffin is president, broke in upon the pastor and his wife, Rev. and Mrs. H. Threlkeld, last Wednesday night, and emptied baskets and bags and a purse upon the tables, shelves and even on the floor. Groceries of all kinds, cans, bags, jars and what-not. In addition to ner was placed on the table, ready this, a prepared Thanksgiving dinto serve. Turkey and trimmings, even to the mince pie. This is the third time the club has surprised the pastor, and it was by far the largest and most complete surprise of them all.

Says Lack of Funds Greatly Handicaps Him. Building Started
Bishop Matthews of the A.M.E Zion Church left here last spring for Africa, carrying plans drawn by a local architect for a school to be erected there. Under date of September 16, he writes that the building for the Annie E. Blackwell School, is under construction. It is 36 X 88 feet and is being constructed of concrete and granite stone. The four outside walls have been carried up to the roof plate; and the inside partition walls will be finished this week (September). The carpenters are now ready to begin with raising and framing for the roof.
While at Monrovia I secured one and one-half tons of corrugated zinc roofing and sent it up to White Plains from which place our boys are now "toting" it up—a distance of 20 miles—to our station.
Bishop Matthews states that he received $1,000, on August 20, from Mrs. Ida V. Smith, treasurer of The Womans Home and Foreign Missionary Society. He asys: "That was the first and only money we have received from our home base since we left the United States. That money was like an oasis in a desert of sand. The temporary relief it brought to us enabled me to take heart again and scramble to my weary feet for another step forward." Bishop Matthews is erecting this school a Mt. Coffee, Liberia. He has 116 men at work.
He says that he will soon leave Liberia for his Gold Coast location, farther South and unless the Church responds better than it has, he will not be able to begin his building in the Gold Coast on time. He does not want his church, the A. M. E. Zion, to be recognized only as a small factor trying to engage in and associate itself with a big business concern. He states that he would like to have some photographs of the new building made but it will cost $35.00 to get a photographer from Monrovia to make a dozen pictures.
NEW CATHOLIC BUILDING IS DEDICATED HERE
The new parochial school Augustine's Catholic Ch. Fifteenth street, northwe tween R and S streets, was merly dedicated, Sunday, by th. Rt. Rev. John McNamara, of thi diocese. The school will be ready for the opening in January. When completed the whole plant will include a school, a convent, and a church. The bishop was assisted by Rev. Alonzo Olds, Rev. R. J. Froelick, and Rev. James King, pastor and assistant pastors of St. Augustine's.
Old Building Outgrown
St. Augustine's now at Fifteenth and L streets, northwest, conducted a parochial school in its early years on L streets, near the church, where the Lenox building now stands. The school was closed when the land was sold and reopened again under Rev. James Griffith opposite the church on Fifteenth street. In 1908 this school was conducted by the Oblate Sisters and had 170 students through eight grades.
The new building dedicated Sunday was erected to meet the increased demand and will accommodate 600 students.
The committee of arrangements for the dedication consisted of William J. Smith, chairman; Genevieve Burke, vice-chairman; Marsutus Smith, secretary; Alonzo J. Olds, treasurer; Eugene A. Clark, chairman of the committee on speakers, secured for Monday night at the St. Augustine's Church, Senator David I. Walsh, the Rev. Peter Guildley, Victor Daniel, Andrew I. Hickey, and Maurice F. Moore.

LIBERIAN vs. AMERICAN SLAVERY
There has been much talk of enforced labor, or slavery in Libe-
ria, There is some effort being made by this government to send a
commission of three to Liberia to investigate this reported “enforced
labor.” Our government seems to be filled with righteous indigna-
tion over the “slavery” charge by planning an investigation.
In the supposed “uncivilized” territory of Liberia, the tribal gov-
ernment exists. The chief being the father of the tribe. All funds go
into a common treasury, which is controlled by the chief. When plant~
ing and reaping require labor, the chief sends out the necessary num-
ber. The improvement, of whatever nature and all work necessary
for the tribe is performed by men designated by the chief. The crops,
cattle, palm nuts, or whatever the commodity, are held in common by
the tribe.. So our holy indignation may be shattered when our Com-
mission finds the true state of affairs.
But why send a commission 5,000 miles spending unnecessary
money to investigate charges of a defeated candidate who is trying
to put the “ins” out and himself in? The Minister to Liberia can
give this government a clean report on conditions.
Why go to Liberia to investigate tribal customs, when in ten of
our Southern States “involuntary servitude” commonly called “peon-
age” (which is nothing more nor less than “American Slavery”) is being
carried on by the support of the State Courts? Why not become
indignant over the enslavement of our own citizens here at home?
‘They need the relief this government should give them to support
their families and maintain their homes and thereby be good and
loyal citizens rendering a service to and doing their bit toward the
maintenance of our government.
Why not turn the Department of Justice on this nefarious system
which is being fostered in at least ten of the 48 states of these United
States? The recent expose of the turpentine barons of Florida, by
the New York World and Post Dispatch of St. Louis, is enough to
humiliate a supposed Christian Nation, whose President is said to be
of the strictest Christian faith in this country—The Quakers, How
can President Hoover be hypocritical enough to send a commission
to Liberia to investigate supposed “enforced labor” there when in ten
of his Southern States, either of which is larger than Liberia, he can
yeadily find thousands of his fellow citizens working and living under
the most atrocious and abominal slavery that ever existed in this
country?
It would be a travesty on justice and a glaring mockery of the
supposed enforcement of the Constitution of these United States for
the President of this country to send a commission to investigate
slavery in Liberia when he has 10 times as much and far more atroc-
ity here in his pet Southland. He encourages the violation of the
Constitution as long as he permits it to exist.
PHILANTHROPISTS A MENACE
‘The St. Luke's Herald, of Richmond, had this sentence as number
four in a list of ten things for which to be thankful: “We are thank.

To the Editor.
Dear Sir:
May I beg some of your space to
call the attention of your readers
to tho tremendous significance of
the present fight being made to
exclude Negro citizens from the s0-
called “white primary” in certain
Southern states?
Not long ago the United States
| Supreme Court handed down a de-
cision in which it was held that
Negroes could not be exeluded from
voting in party primaries. This
was in the famous Texas primary
case 0 ably handled by the Nation-
al Association for the Advance-
ment of Colored People.
‘This decision was epochal. It
put the unreconstructed political
oligarchy of the South in a hole.
| There was no longer any legal pre-
tence of keeping Negroes out of
the saered white man’s primary
|which in the South has been here-
|tofore more important than the
| general election.
| For some time the unreconstruct-
ed South was in a quandary, Late-
ly it was hit upon the plan of leav-
|ing the decision of who shall be
| allowed to vote in the primaries to
| state party committees. The mem-
|bers of these committees are the
| very whites who have been trying
| all along to keep the Negro politi-
jcally helpless. If permitted to,
they will bar the Negro just as
effectually as they did before the
Supreme Court of the United
States handed down its great de-
| cision.
|, Florida and Texas aro taking
jthe lead in this nefarious scheme
to circumvent the law. One H. D.
Goode, a Negro citizen of Florida,
recently brought suit for $5,000
damages against election clerks
who denied him the right to vote
in the primaries last April. The
case is now being argued before
the Florida Supreme Court. If
that body renders an adverse de-
cision, the case will have to be car-
tied to the United States Supreme
Court.
This fight is not merely the fight
of Mr. Goode or the Pensacola
Branch of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, which is financing it, nor

The Great Spelling Match
By Carotine Howell
(Garnet-Patterson School)
There was no doubt about it—of
all the little colored boys and girls
who went to Peabody School, Mar-
garet was the dullest; even her pa-
rents thought so. Margaret's broth-
er, Charles, who was one year
younger than she, had proudly:
‘gassed to the fitth grade. gad yas
ing rapid progress to the sixth.
If Margaret was backwards in her
studies, Mabel Green wasn't, for
she was envied by all of her class-
mates. Once a month a prize was
given to the scholar who . stood
highest in certain studies and Ma-
bel had twice been the successful
pupil. Now, one of the members
of the school board was a farmer
about 40 years of age. He believed
in boys and girls knowing how to
spell, read and write.
He knew Mabel and liked her. In
order to encourage her more he
decided to hold a spelling match.
Two sides were chossn who stood
opposite each other. Anyone miss-
ing a word was to sit down. The
last one to stand up was to win
the nites... ‘The rbes weit.
TRIBUNITE’S PLEDGE
1. I will never use the word
“nigger.”
| 2. I will learn all that T ean
about the history and traditions
of my Race.
3.1 will use my eyes and
ears to detect stander against
my Race, ‘and 1 will champion
my ace’ wherever I may hear
such slander.
4.1\ il 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,
Mabel’s mother pinned a large
bow of ribbon on her head and put
on her best dress. Mabel al-
ready considered the prize as won
—in fact she was planning how to
spend it. Little Margaret had been
in high excitement for she was
not a fairly good speller. She had
never had fifty cents of her own
in her whole life.
Sides were chosen; Margaret was
almost hidden by fat Reggie An-
drews, who stood next to her. Ma-
bel was across the room from her,
and smiled in a somewhat scornful
manner as though she thought
Margaret a real dummy, | Every-
thing went on fine until the teach-
fer got to the word “fuchsia.” Girls
and boys were sitting sadly down.
There were only three children
standing, Margaret, Mabel and
Joan. Joan on Mabel’s side. Joan
failed sadly sat down, and all
eyes were on Mabel and Margaret.
Mabel was now a trifle hadty and
exclaimed: “fuschia.” “Wrong!”
saidi the teacher, and Mabel burst
into tears
Poor little Margaret was a trifle
slow but distinctly said, “fuchsia,”
“Correct,” said the teacher. Mar-
garet's knees almost gave uway;
every one clapped their hands Mr.
Edward said his next prizo would
be for the best all-around’ pupil at
the close of the term, and Mabel is
once more looking forwatd with
hone.

YULETIDE SWEETS
(By Winifred Thurlow)
Director of the Home Service Bureau of the Washington Gas Light Company
One of the greatest pleasures of the Christmas preparations is making the holiday sweets, and the most perfect climax to a Christmas dinner is an assortment of colorful candies.
Home-made candy is less expensive than the commercial and its purity is beyond question.
If past experiences in candy making have resulted in an inedible sticky product, do not be discouraged. There are numerous recipes for candy that are practically "fool proof." Select simple recipes and follow the directions carefully.
There are numerous simple recipes for uncooked fondant. It may be colored, flavored, molded, and coated with chocolate or chopped nuts to make most delightful sweets. The junior members of the family will enjoy removing the seeds from dates and replacing them with nuts or marmsmallows. They can also roll them in granulated sugar which gives them a festive appearance.
Peanut Brittle
Put 2 cups of sugar into an iron frying-pan and place over a low flame. Stir often to prevent burning. As soon as sugar is melted, add one and one-half cups of peanuts. Stir well and pour on a marble slab or a granite tray. When cool, mark off in strips or squares. Do not remove from slab until cold.

BUREAU OF EFFICIENCY TO MAKE COMPLETE SURVEY OF VIRGIN ISLANDS
Herbert D. Brown, chief of the bureau of efficiency, will take charge of an immediate survey of the economic, industrial and social life of the Virgin Islands, it was announced at the bureau of efficiency last Tuesday. This is the first comprehensive survey that has been attempted of these islands since they were purchased from Denmark in 1917, it was said. Surveys of particular phases of the life of the islands have been made by various groups. These will be co-ordinated in the bureau's study. Since these possessions were first obtained as a naval base their economic advance has been retarded by a deflation and the war, it was stated. The survey will endeavor to learn what measures may be taken to promote the advancement of the life of the natives, of which there are about 21,000, it was said.

The President appointed a committee on Constitution which is to report at the meeting in January. The three composing the committee are F. E. Brown, Dr. L. A. Allen and Mrs. B. Pettaway.
The principal address was made by Rev. A. F. Elmes, pastor of the People's Congregational Church, on "Earning a Living."

Music was furnished by Mr. Cupid and Miss Wood who sang solos. F. E. Parks, principal of Phelps, installed the officers.

VOTERS' APATHY FLAYED BY DEPRIEST IN TALK
ANNAPOLIS, Md., Dec. 1 Congressman Oscar DePriest addressed an Educational Mass Meeting here Sunday afternoon under the auspices of the Civic League of this city. Following the welcome address of the Mayor, W. E. Queenstad, Republican, who said that he was elected by only one vote; and that while there were 985 Negroes registered in the 4th ward, only 275 voted.
Congressman DePriest took his cue from the Mayor's address and spoke to the people very plainly regarding their civic duty and their failure to perform it. He asked the people how could they ask for a place of the mayor when they had failed to vote in the election? "The mayor does not owe you anything," said the Congressman. "The only way to get favors from an administration is to obligate the administration to you. The man who receives pay before the election cannot hope for anything after election. I hope this will not happen again."
The Negro's Weapon
The Negro has two weapons he can use in fighting his battles: the ballot and an upright life. Live so that you can make people respect you.
The Congressman spoke of his appointing a boy to West Point, and said, "Before the 30th of next March I will name two Negro boys to the Naval Academy here. It has been a long time since you saw a black boy out there."
Speaking of Prohibition Mr. De Priest said: "I shall not vote to appropriate a single dollar to enforce the 18th Amendment until an appropriation is made to enforce the 13th, 14th, and 14th Amendments.
"It has been 2 years since you had a Congressman in Washington who had free access to the United States mails and I am working overtime to make up for this lost time." He then told of sending out 10,000 copies of the Constitution and asking people to study it.
Speaking of leaders Mr. DePriest said: "No hungry man can feed you, for he will take the first piece of bacon offered him. You most learn to elect men who will best serve you."
Garnet C. Wilkinson, of Washing, responded to the welcome address of the mayor for Congressman DePriest.
The party consisted of the Congressman and Mrs. DePriest, Mr. and Mrs. Garnet C. Wilkinson, F. E. Parks, Morris Lewis, secretary to the Congressman and his daughter, Dorothy. They were the dinner guests of Roger Williams.

Tribune Selects All-High School Team in Washington D.C.
"Red Pine" Armstrong Named Most Valuable Player in D. C.
TRIBUNE ALL-HIGH SCHOOL TEAM FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
PICKING an "all" team has caused more gray hairs than any other single thing. Since our hair is already gray as a result of selecting "all" teams of one sort or another, we enter into the fray knowing that we are already immune to this particular malady.
Without much ado we present the Tribune All-High School Eleven for the District of Columbia for 1929.
We feel that this team could defeat any high school team in the country. This eleven would delight the heart of any coach. They have everything that goes to make good football players. It isn't always the most brilliant player or the one that's on the winning team that makes an "all" squad. There are at times many men on losing elevens who should be on star teams. Their all-round play during the season qualifies them for a berth on a selected team.
The three schools in Washington Cardozo, Armstrong and Dunbar have produced many boys who show the "makings" of excellent players. We believe the backfield of the first team is as near perfect as a backfield can be.
Minns, of Dunbar, rounded out one of the greatest backfield combinations in high school annals.
On the ends we place the Jackson combination. Joe of Cardozo, at left end, and Al. of Armstrong, on right end. Here are two fonts
"Red Pine" Armstrong, of Tech, is no doubt the most valuable player of the three teams. There was no stopping this lad when he really got going. It always took no less than two men to hold him, and more often three or more. Armstrong is the best broken field runner in high school circles. To see him sidestep, waltz, and break away from tackles is a beautiful sight. All teams were instructed to get Armstrong, and yet this boy continued to get away. He is more like the famous Jazz Byrd than any player I have ever seen. This boy has the ability to realize which way his tacklers were coming, and without even glancing behind he would glide them. He had the uncanny knowledge to forsee what was go-

CARDOZO TEAMS "PAY AS THEY GO"
"Day As You Go" athletics at Cardozo work a hardship at the Washington high school, but students and faculty have rallied to the cause and the Cardozo activities are comparing favorably with other schools in the city. Students at the school buy their own uniforms and finance trips for the teams. Rummage sales, dances and various programs are given during the year to help athletics. From the principal down all lend a hand in helping to buy uniforms and other equipment. Despite handicaps the team made an excellent showing on the gridiron and this is the second year the school has ever had a football sound.
Dunbar high and Douglass high were defeated and the boys went into the Armstrong game suffering casualties to several of the best men. When a man was hurt he had to stay on in the game or else there was no substitution for the simple reason there were not enough men attending the school to afford a substitute. The Douglass game was the first real scrimmage the team had. Coach J. E. Washington is planning a basketball team this season that will be a threat to all other teams in the District. There are seven old men who have reported and four new ones who show promise. The average height of the team is six feet with some towering well over this mark.
Men who will represent Business
Tob on the court are Frank Payne,
Bern Harlan, Reginald Hutchin-
Alexander Underdown, Joe
Jason, Bryant Saunders, Ray-

St. Paul Wins Turkey Game from St. Augustine
LAWRENCEVILLE, Va.—Coach Giles's men uncocked one of the most brilliant aerial attacks witnessed on the local gridiron all season. St. Paul ended her season by decisively defeating her sister school, St. Augustine, of Raleigh, N.C., 24 to 6, at Russell Field, here, on Turkey Day. Three of her touchdowns were perfected via the aerial route, while the fourth resulted from a long end run by Burke
Minns, of Dunbar, rounded out one of the greatest backfield combinations in high school annals.
On the ends we place the Jackson combination. Joe, of Cardozo, at left end, and Al, of Armstrong, on right end. Here are two fast men who play football not only with their hands, but they have brains and above all they use them. Both are sure tacklers and know how to get rid of interference. Finely built chaps who have done notable work are these boys.
Morris and Campbell, both of Armstrong, are selected for tacklers. They are strong, can diagnose plays and know what to do at the crucial moments.
Lucas Howard, of Dunbar, and Commer, of Armstrong, are the guards. Both are good fighters, aggressive and have "football sense." With this combination I believe any coach would be sure of whipping any high school team in the country.
There are many other good men on the second team. Shorter is a great back, but I doubt if a superior combination to the one named can be found. There are Queen, Rush and Davis, who have made an enviable record, but since only eleven men can be on a team they are forced to second position. Wormley, Blakey, Carter, Cole, Leggett, Thomas and Gregg would make it hot even for the first team; in fact the second squad is almost the equal of the first, but for sheer football and cleverness, I think the first would outshine the last named.
DEADLINE SET FOR MARATHON
The deadline for entries in the first annual cross country run under the auspices of the Twelfth Street Branch Y.M.C.A. is extended to Friday, December 6. Entries outside of Washington will be received up to 12 o'clock Saturday. The course will be run through the city streets covering approximately three and a half miles for the seniors and two miles for the juniors. The Y.M.C.A. is offering prizes to the 1st 10 persons to finish in both the senior and junior classes. The name of the winner of the senior division will be inscribed on the Lightman Theatre's trophy, which will become the permanent possession of the person winning it three times. A team trophy is also offered on which will be inscribed the name of the winning senior team.
Perhaps the best known entry in the contest is Edgar Lee, a senior at Armstrong High School, who is a strong favorite to capture the Lichtman Theatre trophy. Lee, a conspicuous figure in cross country competition, has shown his heels to a large field of runners in both the Baltimore and Richmond cross country events held last spring. With the entry of John Carroll, of Baltimore, Paul Robinson, star runner from Buffalo, and Alexander Gordon, of Howard, the field takes on real class. Carroll will represent the Lruid Hill Avenue Branch Y.M.C.A. of Baltimore, and is a hard man to beat. The entry of Antonia Wagnor has added interest to the event. Tony will repre-country run staged at Frederick Md. He won the two-mile cross country run stage dat Frederick last June.
Entries should be mailed to Arthur A. Green, Twelfth Street Branch Y.M.C.A., 1816 Twelfth street, northwest.

This victory for Clark gives them the championship of Atlanta, and places them second to Tuskegee in the Southeastern Conference.

GUS MOORE WINS IN ICE AND SNOW
BERWICK, Pa.—Racing over nine and a fifth miles of ice, snow and mud Thursday, Gus Moore, University of Pittsburgh, won the twentieth annual Berwick marathon in 49 minutes, 42 1-2 seconds.
Two Pennsylvania State College runners delighted the crowd of more than 20,000 by finishing second and sixth.
Rich Detwiler, of the cross-country team of the Pennsylvania institution, was second, and Captain Radcliffe was sixth. Although State runners have participated annually, it was the first time since 1920 that a State College harrier has finished in the prize. In that year Lutzer Romig won the race.
The race was run under the worst conditions that ever marked a marathon. The mercury was well below the freezing point, the mountain roads were covered with ice and the start of the event was delayed more than a half hour while a half dozen State highway patrolmen and State Troopers worked feverishly to clear the mountain road of stalled automobiles. At one place there were snow drifts two feet deep which had been churned up by automobiles before the runners got there.

MEN SWORE LIONS WOULD NOT PASS
---
Every man on Howard's football team took a solemn oath before the game with Lincoln that each would sacrifice everything before he would allow a Lincoln man to cross the Bison goal.
Thousands of fans were amazed at the inspired way the Howard team played when Lincoln was counted to win by at least three touchdowns. They were held to a scoreless tie.
Coach Verdell stated this week that he had to change his entire defense as Coach "Bill" Taylor, of Lincoln, and his staff were spectators at the game on Saturday before the Thanksgiving game when Howard played Morgan. Every Howard play was carefully noted by the Lion mentor.
"Lincoln was looking for the same plays that Howard presented in the Morgan game and were fooled," said Verdell. The Howard football captain for next year will be elected at a banquet to be held soon, said the coach, although he is not in favor of a captain. "The boys got along so well this season without a captain that I am against a captain," said Verdell.

HAMPTON PLANS ANNUAL TOUR
HAMPTON PLANS ANNUAL TOUR
HAMPTON INST., Va.—The religious Passion Play at Oberammergau will be one of the high spots of the fourth annual European tour to France, Belgium, Holland, England, and Germany, of the travel-study party conducted under the auspices of Hampton Institute.
The party this year will sail from New York on June 18, returning July 23. The itinerary includes visits to Rouen, Amiens, which schedules also a trip to the battlefields of the World War, Brussels, and Amsterdam, which includes the Isle of Marken. Starting at Cologne the party will go through the Rhine Valley by boat and then to Paris for ten days. Versailles and Malmaison are to be reached by motor from this city. The trip to Oberammergau includes two nights in Munich with attendance at the Passion Play, July 9.
The business arrangements for the Hampton European tour are in charge of A. Ogden Porter, who also gives the optional course in European History, of Hampton Institute, and Arnold Graff, 110 East Forty-second street, New York City.

DUDLEY FROWNS ON BARE LEGGED ACTRESSES
Ey S. H. Dudlev. Sr.
The out-look for the colored actor who plays the colored theatres exclusively, is gloomy, but they can save themselves with the assistance of the managers. The patrons who once supported the colored theatres, and stood for whatever the actors gave them, and was satisfied is no longer interested in the old time shelf worn jokes, songs, and offerings, and will not stand for them, and I don't blame them.
Now, here is my idea. What we need is a real Colored Circuit, properly managed by experienced showmen, who are willing to improve the stages, dressing rooms, and beautify their old-time worn out theatres. A little remodeling, a little paint, a little lighting effects and beautifying things will do this.
There are a very few colored theatres that you go into that you fined the seats in good order. Why? Because the manager does not know, or cares. All he is looking for is the price of admission. All white theatres have their seats gone over after each performance, while in the majority of the colored theatres you will find a back broken, an arm off, or a leg broken. The manager sold you this seat, but can you use it? Managers have your seats fixed. Now if we had a tryout theatre, where all shows would open, and he censured by thoroughly competent showmen, before they were booked over the circuit, and new material, and better and more modern scripts furnished, no two shows doing the same thing, it would create more interest, and the same unfortunate once patronized your theatre will support it again.
I have seen as many as six consecutive shows coming in a town singing the same songs, telling the same jokes, the same plot, as near as they could follow it. With a tryout house, all of this would be eliminated, and cause producers to put on original, clean shows, having them properly costumed; new scenery and electric effects; stockings on the girls, instead of showing their bare legs, some yellow, some black, and some brown, and I am sure this will bring back colored show business. We should cut out all the suggestive jokes, give a clean modern entertainment, and the public will support your shows and theatres. That is my idea of what colored show business needs.
Mary Burrill to Read "The Other Wise Man" At Vesper Service
The women students of Howard University will conduct their eighth annual Christmas vesper service and candle light procession in the Rankin Memorial Chapel on Sunday, December 15, at 4:30 p.m. The feature of this service is the reading of Van Dyke's "The Other Wise Man," by Mary Burrill, dramatic reader and teacher of dramatic art. Miss Burrill is one of the best interpreters of literature before the American public. Blanche Watson, a literary critic writing to several New York papers and magazines, after hearing Miss Burrill, says, "Her voice reminds me of Bernhardt's." Sparing of gesture, contained in manner, quiet as to voice, save in highly poignant moments, this woman held her audience literally in the palm of her hand . . .
Wellington Adams Entertained
Wellington Adams, teacher-composer, was entertained by his pupils in a Thanksgiving musical program last Thursday evening at 1511 R street, northwest, Miss Elizabeth Washington, hostess.

A collation followed the program. Mr. Adams exhibited an autographed photo sent to him recently by one of his former but now famous pupils from St. Louis, Mo., in the person of Miss Aida Ward of "The Blackbirds" Company. Many favorable comments were made on the beautiful likeness of this star, a product of Washington, D. C.

New York City meets Friday, Dece-
ber 6th at the Dark Tower,

City. The subject of discussion

UNDULANT FEVER
Undulant fever is one of the newest diseases of man and is widespread throughout the United States. The disease may be acquired from the milk of infected cows or goats or from other infected cattle. Since the disease is new and unfamiliar, it is likely that many more cases have occurred, unrecognized, than the report shows. The disease is characterized by long continuation, with many periods of apparent recovery and subsequent relapses. High fever, with rheumatic and neuralgic pains occur, but the disease is not often fatal.
CITIZENS TO MEET
The Barry Farms Citizens Association, will meet at the Playhouse, Stanton road, Tuesday, December 6th.
Miss Edna I. Scott Becomes Bride of N. J. Robinson
A wedding of more than usual interest took place at 7 o'clock on Tuesday, November 26, when Miss Edina L. Scott, daughter of Edmond W. Scott and Mrs. Imogene T. Scott, became the bride of Harry J. Robinson, son of Mrs. M. J. Robinson. The ceremony was performed in the home of the bride's parents, the Rev. A. J. Olds officiating.
The decorations of palms and chrysanthemums produced a very pleasing effect.
Proceeding the ceremony Miss Virginia Williams, a teacher in the Francis Junior High School, sang "Because" and Mrs. Florence Brockis Porter played the wedding march.
Because of the recent illness of the bride's father, Miss Scott was escorted and given in marriage by her brother, Ralph Scott.
The bride wore a graceful gown of white satin with an uneven hemline. The tulle veil added to her loveliness. Her only adornments were a long string of pearls and ear rings to match. She carried a shower bouquet of roses and lilies of the valley.
Miss Gladys Scott, the sister of the bride, who was daintily attired in green taffeta, attended her as maid of honor.
Mesiames Ida Myers, Katherine Carr, and Carrie Elliott, wearing dresses of yellow taffeta and carrying beautiful bouquets of chrysanthemums which blended so well with their costumes, formed a pretty picture.
The bride's mother was becom-
