1t was connected in the same way in
which have always used it before.
What could cause it to burn out the
tubes?
Ans.--In the old type Tungar
Chargers an auto-transformer was
used. Thus one side Of your 10 volt
line was connected to your battery
through the charger. AS one side Of
each filament is grounded, it will be
seen that if the connection to the ITO
volt line is such that the Give" side is
connected to the ungrounded side of
the filaments, there will lbe ITO volts
directly across the tubes. This danger
may be eliminated by putting a 1000
mmfd condensed in the ground lead.

Two messages, both starting from
Columbus, Ohio, U. S. A. have been re-
layed completely around the world
The first message went around in an
easterly direction and the second one
in the opposite direction. The start

cases, was station 8GZ, operated by
Mr.. L. G. Window.
The first message went direct to
British 2CC, then to British GOD, then
to Australian 2Cm, then to U. S. 6AB0
(Whittier, Calif.) and then to the A.

WGY on Four Wavelengths Simultan-
eously

Following the lead Of KDKA, who
has for some time been broadcasting
on two wavelengths, WGY is now
transmitting its regular programs on
four separate wavelengths. Besides
the regular wavelength of 1913 me-
tiers, the wavelengths of 38, 100 and
1860 meters will be used. Different
calls are being used for each wave
length. the calls being 2XAF, Xxx and
2XAH respectively.
The General Electric Co. is asking
for reports on the comparative recep-
tion at the different wavelengths. Re-
ports which have already come in show
that the 38 meter transmissions are
coming in exceptionally well at great
distances.

OPTIMISM, EVEN IN FAILURE

Fisk Garvey Union Laborers Bank at
Washington, Brown and Stevens Bank at
Philadelphia, ETC., are examples Of lack OF
success among certain ranks of racial endeavor
during the past six months However, these
events are not uncommon ones. Their counter
parts appear constantly among all peoples and
amid all business ventures. The advent OF
failure is no signal for tears and weeping
Rather, it is a call for renewed confidence and
the resolution to continue to press forward
1t is call for reinforced support and per-
severance.
If, every time train Was wrecked or
boat was sunk, people ceased their intercourse
via travel and transportation routes, what
would become of the worlds business?

it were, among the peoples of the world.
Failures within their ranks were long since
preceded by failures within the ranks of their
contemporary racial groups. When failures
come, new units of business must spring up
and must be supported by an intelligent peo-
PIE who show some knowledge of world his
tory and racial endeavor.
The groupal men and women who get cold
feet over temporary waiver OF racial business
whether in bank, grocery store, or profession
will never contribute one cubit to the stature

Robert Fulton was deemed an idiot for his
experiment with the Clermont. Stephenson
was derided for his efforts to perfect the steam
engine. Even Columbus was put in chains fol-

fail or racial movement strike the rocks, and
ten thousand voices would cruelty our hopes
and desires for the next decade.
Some one has said ito err is human-to
forgive is divine. Ridicue and criticism
must give way to optimism and support.
Negro business must be given Our hearts and
Our hands and Our money. Confidence must
pervade Our ranks, for little by little we are
pushing ahead. One swallow doesn't make
summer; neither does one bank failure, or a
dozen, for that matter, impute dismal future

THE, MAN FROM LIBERIA

Does the serious side of American life, its
possibilities and its impossibilities. make the
most profound impression upon those to whom
America birthright comes as natural devise;
or is it a fact that foreign-born people, who
have looked upon America opportunities with
envious glances, seek in more vigorous
fashion than do We the chance to carve
perfect destiny out of the American scheme
of honest-to goodness progress!
We think the answer is found in the follow
ing sketch, which has many counterparts,
confined by no means to the black people Of
the world. The little brown man from Liberia
of whom we write, reached this country in his
early teens" where he saw, frst-hand, the
variations of American education. Fate
CHANGED to throw him into South Carolina,
which, at best does not offer any golden OPP
portunity for the education of any black man,
woman or child Somehow, Or other, though
the little brown man from Liberia managed
to pursue an academic preparatory course,
following the completion of which, he quail
fled as candidate for the degree of Bachelor
of Science at Clahin University. By dint of
hard Work. the denial of ordinary comforts,
and other senn-hardships, he secured his
degree, without ever having failed an exarn-
nation Vacation seasons were spent hand
ling dinner trays and other hand implements.
The little brown man plugged right along,
for he had decided to become lawyer. So
he entered Howard University Law College,
where he persistently applied himself to the
task of earning the degree of Bachelor OF
Laws. Of course, that degree was not OF
much worth, without supplementary certifl-
cate from some State Board Of Law Examirl-
ers. So the little brown man of FIVE feet five
presented himself to the Law Board, and
when we saw him the other night he had just
taken the oath of the Circuit Court. He Was
all smiles, of course He had already rented
office space and made first payment upon
set of Corpus Juris. GA great country is
America, he saidy'I wish my fellow country
men could have just half my chance
And we thought of the phases of life OF
our own people here in the land of opportunity
curtailed at times by outbursts of prejudiced
people, but, most of the time, offering some
sort of an equitable chance to develop. We
realized more and more that the foreign-born
people, who nerve themselves up to the point
of leaving home for the unknown, mean
business when they touch American SOIL They
are serious minded; full of quiet energy; and
bound up with the bonds of perseverance, like
Seabron F. Hail. the little brown man from
Liberia. ARE WE?

Night Coughing
How to Stop 1t

Night coughing which, through
loss of valuable sleep, often makes
you feel utterly worn-out and use
less during the day, and by quickly
weakening the system lays you
open to the most dangerous infec-
lions, can now be promptly checked
by a very simple treatment. Peo-
pie who have hardly been able to
rest on account of coughing spells
have found that they can sleep the
whole night through undisturbed
often after the very first trial.
The treatment Is based on a remark
able prescription known as DR.. Kings
New Discovery. You simply take q tea
spoonful at night before retiring and
hold 1t in your throat for Is or 20 sec
onds before swallowing it. The pre-
scription has a double action. It not
only soothes and heals the soreness and
Irritation, but it quickly loosens and re-
moves the phlegm and congestion which
IS the real cause OF the cough. The
result Is that you usually sleep as soundly
as babe the very first night. and the
cough goes in a very short time.
The prescription contains no oplates or
harmful drugs. Excellent for children
as well as grown-ups. For coughs. chest
colds. hoarseness, sore throat, spasmodic
Group. bronchitis, laryngltis and bronchial
asthma. At all good druggists. Ask for

ANTHROPOLOGY AT
HOWARD UNIVERSITY

The Skull Testers" are to be augnented
by some descendants of Ham for, 10, Howard
University is to install course of anthropo
logical study, and dusky men and maidens are
to have chance for themselves to trace skull
thicknesses and pigment variations amid
bronze atmosphere.
1t doesn't appear, from the Howard an
nouncement, whether this is to be get even
project or bona fide attempt to evolve sonic
theories which will have the proper psyche
logical effect upon the unfortunate doubling
Thomases' of our own group, who seem 70
think and act in terms which acknowledge
physical and mental inferiority, as compared
with the standards of the white group, which,
ever and anon tries to let down the curtain
upon our desires, both individually ami
groupaly.
Anthropoogy is mighty fine study, par
ticulary from recreational standpoint; but,
for practical purposes, course in bricklaying
or medicine would probably bring healthier
returns, both morally and financially; for
knowledge is power and power is money, and
money buys houses and shoes for the kiddies.
Physiological psychology, astronomy and
anthropology are outstanding sciences for ed
ucational tourists and path6nders; but, gee
whiz, what can son of Ham cash in on any
of the three?
We do not blame the Howard Faculty for
putting in an anthropological course. They
are getting theirs" and must have some re-
creation other than that in vogue at separate
bathing beaches and golf links And since
Howard is Class "a" college, We are half
way glad that it is augmenting its curriculum
with mysterious subjects. But, no Howard
graduate in anthropology will be able to
change the white folks mind nor will a
bronze-colored anthropologist have much of
chance in debate with the "Nordics" whose
minds are already quite made up as to the
evolution of man and monkey.
So, until Yale, Harvard, Columbia ana
Princeton put in special courses in pigment
study, we can't, for the lives Of us, see muck
to be hoped for from anthropological studies
at any Negro university.

THEY'LL. MISS MR.. UPHAM

Erred Upham gave me this alligator bag,
said one of the political BRETHREN as he
sadly read of the death of the former Treas
urer of the Republican Committee. And we
know that the BROTHER felt just like
child who thinks that Santa Claus has gone
for good.
Mr.. Upham was undoubtedly very very
good to the BRETHREN who not infrequenr-
ly adorned the payroll and expense voucher
list of the National Republican Committee
Nor is it any reflection upon Mr.. Upham TO
say that the strings upon the Republican po-
litical purse have been drawn little tighter
since MIR. Upham resigned This change was
merely in keeping with the newer and different
system along all lines of administration effect
i've since last June.
Mr.. Upham was of the Old School. The
accounts of the staff were not scrutinized in
the fne-toothcomb way of today. Slight
additions and extras which the BRETHREN
frequently added to travel expense accounts
and the like in the days of Mr.. Upham, us.
ually glided on through with the okay OF the
late G. O. P. Treasurer. In fact, it was Mr..
Upharns financial philosophy that the BRETH
Rem were frequently slightly underpaid; and
unless an item was fagrantly unreasonable
upon its face, Mr.. Upham seldom used his big
red ink pen, as silencer of the financial hopes
of the various campaigners. He augmented
this attitude with gifts to the faithful few in
the way of travelling bags, canes, cigars, ETC.
And so, notwithstanding the present efti-
cheney of the accounting system OF the o. o.
P. administrative organization the RRETH-
Rem of the Old School will miss Mr.. Upham.
While he lived. there always hope that
some more bags OF brief cases might still
evolve from his generous hands. 1t was
sort of a psychology which always departs
with the object which gives it life. The cur
tain is down.

years to thirtyfive. The first awards

portunsty to climb the heights of
brilliant achievement in science,
literature and art.

ATTENTION !
WOMEN OF OHIO.

lust few weeks ago, Mrs Eva B. Wright,
journalist and leader of women, formerly Of
Ohio, but now Of Washington, D. c. pointed
out some things which should be done by
Negro women of the Buckeye State in order
to safeguard and promote their political flu,
ture.
Probably of more Importance than the sub
ject raised by Mrs Wright is the industrial
situation, as it affects the Negro women Of
Ohio. In a study made by the u S. Women's
Bureau, it is stated that of 1878 adult wo-
men, nondiscriminateB investigated in ,3o2
Ohio industrial establishments, SO per cent
were native-born whites; 4.o per cent were
native-born Negroes; and I5.4 per cent were
foreign-bom whites, which shows conclusively
that there is something wrong with matters
which affect the inclusion of Our female racial
group in the industrial occupations of the
great State of Ohio This significant truth is
is brought even more strongly to light when
it is remembered that the Negro population
of Ohio is close to a quarter of million, and
that during the past eight years Of migration,
Ohio was veritable "6rst stop for nearly
forty per cent of the Negro migrants
When it is considered that foreign-born
women, at work in Ohio, comprise more than
Is per cent of the female labor forces. as
against about 4 1-2 percent for our group, it is
apparent that we are tagging sadly in the
Ohioan industrial world. The fault may not
be ours, but the naked truth calls for "a
remedy.
Of the 1878 females studied by the U. 5.
Women's Bureau. our group totaled III.
Strange to say, in the laundry industry upon
which it has always been presumed that we
should have the corner Our women COM
prised 14.5 per cent, third place mark IN
competition between themselves, having made
lz.8 per cent in the occupations of producing
food products and I66 per cent in the occu-
pations of the glass industry.
The Negro women have a joke upon their
white native-born contemporaries, however,
when it is observed that the foreign-born Ohio
operatives made 53.4 per cent in occupations
necessary to the manufacture of wo1nen's
clothing. In this particular the American
whites fell to 46.2 per cent, which certainly
does not permit any congratulations on the
part of the white folks.
Negro women comprised 80 per cent in the
manufacture of auto tops and other canvas
products; o. per cent in candymaking; 3,3
per cent in metal products; 90 in paper and
paper products; o3 per cent in rubber and
rubber products; and 3.4 per cent in general
mercantile manufactures. They had virtually
no representation in advertising; gloves; pot
terry; cordage; hosiery wooden goods, and
host of products of lesser importance. And
above the whole situation the poor showing is
outstanding In fact it calls for treatment BY
Ohio EMPLOYERS who believe in American EN-.
ployees for American goods; and by Our wo
men of Ohio. who deserve the fullest consld
erations in the industrial pride of great
State, which is as much their home as it is
anyone's else.
