In the printing business there are
199 colored female compositors, mo

II would be nice compliment to
name one of our numerous women
clubs in honor of the Empress Zaodi-

There is considerable speculation as
to who is best fitted, by education ana
training, to take up the mantle of the
late and lamented Mary B. Talbert.
Oberlin was the first co-educatlonal
college in the world and the first IN
the United States to admit Negro
students.
Most of our race in America descend
ed from the Negroes of the Sudan'
that part of Africa lying south OF ana
adjacent to the Sahara.
The words "white male" were elm
mated from the Ohio state constltu-
ton at the recent election. Inc KAN
opposed the amendment.
For the first time in the history OF
Haiti, the months of July, August anu
September contributed materially 10

Contributing to the agricultural re-
sources of the nation are 81 coloreu

raisers, and 1918 general farm oper-
ators.

National Urban
League Makes
Quarterly Report
Board Holds Fall
Meeting

The Fall meeting of the Executive
Board of the National Urban League
was held at the Russell Sage Founda-
ton Building, 100 East 22nd Street,
New York City on Wednesday after
noon last The budget of SAT ,S35 was
adopted for the year 1924, and new
work was outlined for which it Is
hoped that money will be raised to
bring the total of the years expenses
to S69,S0O.
Mr.. Eugene Kinckle Jones, the Ex-
ecutive Secretary, reported in part the
following accomplishments for the
past four months:
"a survey of the Negro population
of Waterbury, Conn, has been COM
Melted and is in the hands of a COM
mittee of colored and white citizens
which has planned to put in operation
the recommendations for improving
the conditions exposed.
"The Department of Research and
Investigation is now conducting a sim
liar survey of the Negroes of Buffalo,
N. Y, the findings of which will be
made the basis for practical social
work in that city. Through the eff
forts of the League, six Negro organ
izations in Atlanta, Georgia, were in
cluded in the Community Chest drive
there which has just been completed.
The local Atlanta Urban League is
one of these organizations. The total
amount to be received by the six
agencies is S37,950."
Graham r. Taylor of the Common
wealth Fund, formerl ydirector of the
Chicago Race Relations Commission,
and Miss Dorothy Straus, New York
lawyer, were elected to the Board.

Roland Hayes Makes
Big Hit in Boston
Orchestra Recital

Roland Hayes, tenor, is the first Ne
gro TO appear in recital with the Bos-
ton Symphony Orchestra. His first ap-
pearance was in Sanders Hall, Cam
bridge, on Thursday night, November
IS, and on Friday night, the 10th, he
sang in Symphony Hall, Boston. The
Evening Transcript said that Hayes
singing overshadowed the playing of
the orchestra; that he was recalled six
times in Cambridge and almost as
many times in Boston; that Hayes is
a singer with mind and imagination
as well as a voice; that he proved him
self the musician, the artist, whose
means and medium is song.

raigned them in the police court for
violating the "Jim Grow" law of Vir-
ginia.
Before the police justice DIR. Terry
so vehemently defended his claim to
exemption from the local application
of the statute that the court allowed
him to deposit nominal bail for him
self and wife and leave for home with
the understanding that he would en-
gage counsel and lay before the court
judicial authority supporting his con-
tention Subsequently, however, the
court rejected the authorities sub
mitted by counsel for the Terrys, de-
Gliding the case against them.
Attorney James C. Waters, Jr., of
Washington, D. c., representing the
Terrys, feeling that his clients would
get better hearing before the D. G.
courts than before those of the state
of woodrow Wilson, filed suit. The
company showed fight at first, but
finally backed down, offering sub
stantial compromise.
The receiving of the checks is a
great moral victory for DR.. and Mrs.
Terry and constitutes warning to
other roads to proceed cautiously in
their application of the nefarious
"Jim Grow" laws to interstate riders
Counsellor Waters, who is also secre-
tary of the Howard University law
school, is also being congratulated or
his service to the Race through such
an adriot handling of difficult case

Hastings Court on May 18th, to serve
three years in the penitentiary for

The case will come up for trial dur
ing the month of January.
Within the past week the commit
tees representing the depositors in the
Mechanics Savings Bank, which is
now in the hands of the receivers,
have presented plan for its reopen
ing, which it is expected will be per-
fected early next week, and presented
to Judge Moncure with n request for
the vacating of the receivership and
the reopening of the institution. I'm
der the plan the depositors will waive
so per cent of the deposits and re-
ceive in cash 20 per cent of the re-
mainder.

Gently extended this service to colored
children, showing the same films in
one of the Negro theaters. The COM
mittee reports that the experiment has

being large and appreciative. The
colored women's clubs of the city are
cooperating by providing chaperonage
for the children. The Better Films

A TLANTA, Ga, November 81
~ (SpeciaD-A notable feature OF
the Community Chest Campaign
for 100000 which was successfully
conducted here last week was the ac-
tive and generous cooperation of the
colored people. who made 4,261 sub
scriptions to the fund, aggregating
S33,OS4 This sum about equals the
total amount apportioned in the Chest
budget to the six participating Negro
organizations, indicating that in At
lanta, at least, the colored population
is reaching the point where it can
care for its own philanthropies and
need no longer entail burden on the
community in this rG1.ard.
More surprising than the total was
the fact that the second largest 1ndi-

Monster Water
melons Produced
By Negro

Denton, Texas, Nov. 21.-Forced to
study of the methods of Luther Bur
bank by the ravages of the boil weevil,
John d. Cater, of Cara, Denton
county, has set about to produce
watermelons that are said to be able
to make the dreams of the most ar
dent watermelon epicure come true.
BY variety of crosses, Carter has
produced a melon that weighs 12S
pounds, and declares that in a few
years 1OO-pound melons will be COM
mon on the market. Mr.. Carter
crossed three melons-one for size, one
for firmness of texture, and one for
thinness of rind.
From four and half acres this year
Carter marketed about $4,000 worth
of melons, all at wholesale prices.

Railroad Settles in
$4,000 Damage Suit

Atlantic City, Nov. 23.-Dr. and Mrs.
Edward B. Terry of this city received
substantial checks last week in pay
ment as a compromise settlement of
their $4,000 damage suit filed against
the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad in the
Supreme Court of the District of
Columbia, on charges of an illegal ap-
plication of the "Jim Grow" law to
them as interstate passengers on Aug.
IS, 1922.
En- route from Hinton, w. Va, to
Atlantic City, N. j., via Washington,
on a through train of the G. e o., Dr.
cure Pullman accommodations, in view
of the fact that they were interstate
passengers, chose to ride in the white
coach rather than in the boarded off
end of the baggage car provided for
Race passengers. All went well until
they reached Charlottesville, Va,
