progress and uplift for the race and
humanity might be made by the musi-
clans of the Negro race If they used
their talent in the production of the
more lasting forms of music, rather
than in counting monetary infiu-

Redemptive Power of Sacred Music" /"
before the delegates gathered at the
convention of the National Associa-

DR.. Redmond took his slap at the
jazz artists with an apology, criticiz-
ing them more for what they do not
do than for the music they produce.
Applause broke out from all sections
of the audience to greet his opinion.
Many of the most noted Negro art
lists, interested in the more substan-
tial forms of music, were present.

Committee of Ministers Will
Give Day for Boosting Best

1t has been the aim of the North
western Bulletin to sponsor anything
that has for its purpose the building
of a greater Northwest. Our readers
are not mindful of the good the Bull
letin is doing in the Twin Cities. The
following letter is from the commit
tee of the Western Baptist conven-
tion:
The Bulletin played an important
part in making the Western Baptist
Convention a matter of success in its
Twentieth Annual session which met
with The Pilgrim Church July 18th to
22nd, inclusive.
They gave us much space in pre-
senting said convention so as to di-
rect the minds of the people of the
Twin Cities that a meeting, worth
while, was coming.
The publicity given by said paper
will forever establish the fact that it
is worth while to create public senti-
ment in favor of large objective.
The pastors of the Baptist Church
es of Minnesota appreciate the serv-
ice, rendered and will use their in
fiuence and have agreed to appoint
a special day to present to our peo-
pie the Importance of supporting this
paper in large way.
We want to know (and will work
to that end and influence) that each
family or group support this paper.
We appreciate the service render
ed by the Bulletin.

MOVIE BEING MADE BY
ALL-STAR RACE CAST

(By Special Arrangements OF the AS

board)
Chas. p. McClane has been busily
engaged for the past few weeks Sc
lecting talent for feature film that
A. Wax OF Philadelphia is making
with a colored cast for the theaters
catering to the group or for the gen.
eral distributors who may care to
handle Negro society drama.
Mr.. Wax is heavily interested with
his junior relatives . in the Royal.
Olympia and other picture houses in
the Quaker City, and in an Atlantic
City picture house. He feels so Sc
cure in his knowledge of the desires
of the patrons of these and similar
film theaters that he is dedicating
$4,000 to the production OF a fea-
ture picture that will be made under
the direction of Mile Nillegan at
Betzwood, Pa, in the old Lubin stu
dios. Work begins August 6, with
Frank Welsh at the camera.
McClane is securing the country
for the seven leading parts, and states
that he will fill the minor roles with
Philadelphia talent. The film will be
the first one of the kind ever made
in that city, and the result is awaited
with considerable interest. The COM
plete cast will be published in an
early issue of the Billboard. There
will be no delays in the filming, as
the picture is contracted for presen-
tation on September II.

Mr.. Frederick d. McCracken, Vice
President have received special re-
quests to give addresses at the Ma
tional Convention of the Negro Bust

RUBE FOSTER IS

(By the Associated Negro Press)

(By the Associated Negro Press)
indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 3.-Last
Thursday in this city was something
of a holiday, at least as far as the
local baseball fans were concerned.
The occasion was a memorial game
between Rube Fosters American
Giants of Chicago and the c. /. Tay-
lor's A. B. C.'s. This special game
was the first of a series to be played
by the Negro National league clubs,
the proceeds from same to be turned
into a national memorial fund for the
erection of a national monument in
memory of the late Hoosier baseball
magnate, C. I. Taylor.
MIR. Taylor was one of the out
standing characters of Negro baseball
and was known all over the country
for the many valuable services he
rendered the great national game. 1t
is in appreciation of this service that
Mr.. Andrew Rube Foster, along with
his colleague members, has set aside
these special days when games will
be played for this purpose by all the
league clubs.
The memorial game was won by
the A. B. C. club. I'll. 1t was pret-
ty affair from the beginning and
brilliant and sensational plays
marked the game throughout.
In the evening a large gathering
of baseball fans and the players from
both clubs met at the c. l. building
to pay tribute to the late C. l. Taylor
Mr.. A. r. Foster, president of the
league, in speaking of the late c. J.,
said: &C. 1. was a man / loved,
though at times we did not agree on
matters under discussion, yet we un-
derstood and honored each other;
Taylor did much for the game which
we are identified with. OF course,
we miss him, and that is why we are
here this evening-to acknowledge
our regret IN MS demlSe ana 10 eX-
press our appreciation for what he
did for the game during his long
career. 1t is no more than right that
we should erect q lasting monument
that the coming generations will keep
his memory fresh and gain inspira-
tion from the work he accomplished.
1t is pleasing to note. however. that
his widow is ably carrying forward
the work he started"
1t is planned to have the monument
completed and ready to unveil at the
league meeting early next year, per-
haps at the same time of the league
meeting, which win probably be held
in Indianapolis. The remainder Of
the league clubs will play memorial
games before the close of the season.
