FOOD FOR FANS.

AS we go to press we say of the
Cuban Stars that they came, they saw,
but have not yet altogether conquer
ed. However, Saturdays and Sundays
games looked rather indicative of the
little fellows victory of the series.
But you can tell just what will
happen in baseball, the wonderfully
speculative game. The four contests
already played merely signify that two
good teams have been in the field.
There has been none of the small time
stuff seen on other fields, expert play
ing has been the vogue.
The Cubans without question are
one of the strongest of baseball ag-
%gregation. They have got the great
thing in baseball that the darker race
should have in general-scientific
mass movement. Notwithstanding that
that all these fellows are star players,
yet they consider themselves as units
functioning each in his orbit or sphere,
but all moving to one end. This is
probably the why they play the stall
wart Monarchs closer than any other
team in the league. The standing of
the series is as follows:
The Cubans won Saturday. to /.
Cubans won Sunday to 2. Mon
archs won Monday-5 TO 4. Monarchs
won Tuesday, to 8.

My Jazz SOUL

am no better than the musical at
mosphere under which l breathe. For
what inspires like music? 1t is elixir
to my soul; wine to a heart that
yearns; fire to a sense of motion
such as the mad dance, the dance of
dances.
Oh yes, l know something of the
pure cold tones of the so-called clas-
sic. 1t satisfies an ideal, but like all
else that's human-comes with a
mood. Likewise the sacred psalms
enrapt with glow so elevating that
wings of heaven seem to hover near,
and that l, poor soul! as about to
know translation from this lowly
state forever and forever.
But what is this that makes me feel
so humanity human, delightful, glori-
GUS, abandoning all cares that worry
and turn human experience gray when
we are yet young and should see
through the youthful lens of green?
1T MUST BE MY JAZZ SOUL! All!
to drink this in. The sweet spell, the
charm of swinging around on time
with the music, stepping to the exact
beat of the drum, the plang of the
piano, the moan of saxophone. and.
most lately, the exhorting appeal of
the singer-all mixed in the frenzy of
the exilirating noise. Again, it must
be my jazz Soul!
THREE FACTORS IN NEGRO RUSI-
NESS.
We have often heard the remark by
business people that the public had
to be educated up to some progress
sive idea. This is true, but incom-
plete-insufficient.
The fact of the matter is that there
are three factors in Negro business
which need careful training in the
spirit of modern business. They are,
first, the business people themselves;
second, employees; third, the custom
er.
The first noticeable thing about
the average Negro business person is
his lack of education in any particu-
lar, The reason why you find him
more frequently in business than you
do the trained Negro is because he has
more nerve and possibly more indus
try and enterprise than his learned
brother Until late it was almost a
forgone conclusion that the average
Negro with a fair education unless
he could hitch on to a teachers sal
airy, or enter the professions such as
doctors, lawyers or preachers, he
would do nothing but hug his di-
ploma. y
II he enters the said professions
and makes fairly good, and ccumu
lates some capital, the same capital
is usually rendered null or cowardly
by an exalted but false standard of
living, which prevents the accumula-
tor from reasonably investing his
earnings in some worthy and profit
able Race enterprise. You can read
lily see now why the man without par
%ticular training must form the big
majority in Negro business. The

That thought which comes to you
in the glory of Truth freshly discov-
cred, put it out as it, comes. Don't
stop to consider whether it will
please or not-Put it out! Put it out
to the world. Don't stop to tone, pol
ish or soften it with fear and limita-
ton, but put it out in ungarnished
form. Learn to do this, and you will
get rid of much of the artificiality
that accompany your statements, and
which the public rejects because it
more or less recognizes the real from
the unreal.

Intellectual aggressiveness is the
first thing in order for the Negro of
today. We then must free ourselves
from the mental and moral limitation
the white mans psychology has i'm
posed upon us. If we do this, our
Race soul will Immediately spread its
immortal wings for Truth and Liber-
ty. Look up, o Negro, Look up-but
also look about you-and learn.

OUR CAUSE is INTERNATIONAL

The American Negro does not de-
serve success here if for one moment
he forgets or despises his black
brother in Africa. The cause of the
black African and the black Amer
lean is the same. Let us never
speak d~isparagingly of the idea of
American Negroes going to Africa in
small or large numbers. The spirit
to pioneer has ever been the highest
test of the progressiveness of the Ma
tions of the world. 1t will not hurt
us to have our problems information
allied. This is just exactly what the
other fellow does not want to hap
pen. Hence, the fear of the "Garvey"
movement.-More anon

Polishing Mirrors.

In cleaning mirrors and pictures
great care must he taken that no wa
Ter seep under the glass. Water will
ruin the back of Il mirror and blister
the picture.
Perhaps the safest way to polish
and clean these glasses is TO use a
damp channels skin. Wiring the cha
mois as dry as possible out of warm
water, rub the glass until perfectly
clean and dip the chamois into clean
water and again wiring dry. Rub the
glass the second time and polish with
paper if necessary, but it won't be.
This way of cleaning mirrors and pic
lures does not endanger the frame in
any way and is,very satisfactory.

 In point of action, humor and punch, 1t may be termed the best vehicle Chap1in has ever had. Among the big scenes which are featured in the com edy. are a burlesque wrestling match between Edna Purviance in the role of Carmen and four hundred pound rival. an exceedingly funny duel be- tween Chaplin and Leo White in which by actual count, the star scores more than thirty knockdowns and many scenes picturesque in color and at mosphere laid at the inn known in the picture as 'The Sign of tho Spanish Onion.~ A series of sub-titles written in the latest style of slang and humor add greatly to the enjoyment of Car mon" and the entire production has been considerably beautified by tho ad- dition of many artistic, humorQus, pic torial backgrounds which have boon supplied by staff of weil known ar lists fer the picture.
 It contains capable caSes or Bup- porting comedians among whom may be mentioned Ben Turpin, Leo White and John Rand.

 The cast in support of MT. Washburn is excellent. Lois Wilson is his leading woman in a role which fits her ex- cellently. Other well known players are Adele Harrington, c. H. Geldart. Monte Blue, Elsa Lorimer. Gloria Hope and Monte Banks.
 Billings was a handsome young man who had always enjoyed the good things of life. and yachting was his main diversion. Then he married and gave up his bachelor days. But the fascination of the sea was so strong he couldn't resist the chance to be the guest of an aging, but flirtatious widow on trip to South America.
 Believing in safety first, Billings talked about business trip, and start ed out on the yachting party under the name of Johnson. The only trouble there were other Johnsons. and some of them in trouble. However, Billings Johnson finally extricated himself. but not until he had passed through many humorous situations.
