BY ST.PAUL MAN

Concerning the trip of Mr.. and
Mrs. Jose Sherwood to New York,
Mr.. J. A. Jackson of the Billboard
writes us:
Upper Harlem was amused and a
bit mystified by the appearance of a
score of apparently oldtime ministers
In traditional frock coats. goggles and
plug hats when the Deacons of the
New York corner made a ceremonial
call upon Jose Sherwood at his stop
ping place. Mr.. Sherwood, whose
home is in st. Paul, Mimi. and who
is visiting New York and other East
ern cities in his official capacity as
president of the International confer
ence Of Knights Templars, was one
of the high Masonic officials to first
lend his sanction to the nationwide
club of amusement folks In the Ma
sonic fraternity.
This sanction ne has sustained by
accepting the second honorary mem
bership that the club conferred; and
by demonstrating an active interest
in such Negro theatrical folks as hap
pened to visit his city. Among the
few who had that pleasure was Joe
Simms. erstwhile principal comedian
Of Shuttle Along" That was some
months ago.
Lead Fellow Deacons.
On April 2S. Joe headed q group

Contest Sparkling.
High school students have all the
verve and sparkle of youth, and throw
themselves into contest of this kind
in great fashion. That they did it in
the present contest is attested by the
large number-more than 4,O0O-who
submitted orationS, and were judged
by committees in their own schools.
Principal Davis is among the edu-

interest aroused, now eliminating as

contest has visualized the basic char
ter of the United States in a way
that is not possible in any mere
classroom study.
When the Constitution is taken out
of the dry pages of a book. and put
vividly and plainly into the everyday
lives of a pupil at the impressionable
high school age, it becomes a breathing,
living thing to that pupil. something
to be lived with by day and dreamed
with at night.
The contest has done more than a
year of teaching" one head OF a local
secondary school has testified. 1t is
this spirit which has animated the
contest from the first and made the
final judgings so interesting to all
those participating.
Reviews Early History.
Miss Miley's Grafton was an example
of the work done in the contest, a
paper of about 1900 words, taking
about twelve minutes for it's delivery.
From ancient and remote history we
find that men have banded into tribes
of which there was a ruler who was
supposed to be wise and brave as we'll
as strong and healthy" she began.
These bands lived and fought their
enemies in a savage manner. There
existed in these early days a bond of
unity and understanding of the words,
United we stand. divided we fall. The
men who were the heads of the
families of the tribe were very power
full lords in their own families, but
they were subject to the will of their
chief and had to recognize and obey
his laws, whether he was a just ruler
or not, But even these tribes, un-
civilized as they were. created form
of law. There is an instinct in man
that calls for law and order. and so
as far back as history can be traced
we find some sort of government.
In conclusion. she said: 1t has
been said of the Constitution that
1t is the most remarkable document
the brain and purpose of man. and
truly it has done for US what Gus
tom. tradition, established order and
historic life have done for the people
of Europe"
