and Assistant City Attorney Luclus
+. Cary on Monday, August II, 1929,
filed an appeal from the decision OIL
Federal Judge D. Lawrence Groner IN

REMARKABLE SINGER

Especial by John Mitchell, Jr.)
1 was at the Fifth Street Baptist
Church last Sunday afternoon to hear
the famous Sabbath Glee Club, of
which the well-known Joseph Mat
thews is the leading character. He
was presenting Miss Ethyl B. Wise,
an unknown singer, so to speak, she
being noted for her soprano voice. A
sweet-faced, modestly retiring girl of
medium build and of pleasing appear
ance faced the audience.
No One Ready
No one seemed to be ready for the
surprise that she sprung upon large
audience that had come to greet the
Sabbath Glee Club. Miss Wise has
Q voice of transcendent sweetness. j.
Harold Brown, who accompanied her
on the piano was a master with that
instrument. Any one would have
known that regardless of the fact that
he had been given the 1929 Harmon
award.
Many Languages
But to Miss Wise. She sang in
English She sang in French. She
sang in Italian. She sang in German,
all from memory. She danced on top
of the scale and then scared above it
with no apparent effort. When she
came down and bowed to the audience,
pandemonium broke loose, even though
all of us were within the sacred pre-
cincts of a church. l am not versed
in music, but l am a master at listen
ing and in appreciating good music.
Those Who Know
l approached those who know music
and its intricacies about here. They
told me that she had ascended to ''E
fiat, whatever that means. | learned
that she is a graduate of the Howard
Conservatory of Music, and teaches in
Maryland She has not been abroad,
and is now spending the summer at
Hampton Institute, where Prof. Brown
is substituting in place of Prof. R. n.
Dett. Mr.. Brown is director of the
Indianapolis Conservatory of Music.
AS for Miss Wise, she will never lack
for an audience at the hands of those
who noted her transcendent display of
musical ability and the astounding
flexibiity of her voice.
Had Volume, Too
1t may be well to add that she has
the volume and that she filled that
spacious church with her melodies as
easily as she continued her exhibition
of her mastery of the measures above
the scale at "E fat. At the con-
clusion, the accomplished Fifth Street
Baptist Church organist, Miss Flor
ence E. Fields, accompanied her in
the rendition Of "The Crucifixion."

LIBERIA GOING FORWARD FAST
SAYS DR.. TAYLOR
Tuekegce Vice-Principal Brings Good
Reports From African Republic,
and Also From the Gold
Coast.
(Special Corresnondencel

Especial Correspondence
London, August 1.-"If l were still
young man, with my way to make in
the world, l should unhesitatingly go
out to Africa, was the statement
made to me by DR.. R R. Taylor, Vice
Principal of Tuskegee Institute, Ala
bama, the great Negro educational
center, founded by Booker Washing
ton. He has just arrived in London
after visit to Liberia and the Gold
Coast. He received a special invita-
tion from the President of Liberia, to
give the Negro republic the benefit of
his experience and advice concerning
the foundation of Liberian "Tuske-
gee, for which a sum of $S75 1000 was
recently left by the late Miss Olivia
Phelps-Stokes, of the well-known
American family whose members have
supported so many schemes for Negro
progress.
"The International development of
Liberia is proceeding FAST, said Dr..
Taylor. "There are larger appropria-
tions for schools than ever before, and
the late Mr.. James L. Sibley, the
American who is the Educational Ad-
visor of the Government, whose tragic
death has just occurred, had their
complete confidence. These schemes.
and the building of excellent roads.
are now possible, President King ex-
planned to me, now that border prob
lens and the hostility of the people
of the hinterland are questions of the
past. The activities of the Fire
stone interests, who have already de-
veloped about $4,000 of the million
acres assigned to them, have stimu-
lated number of the Liberian peo-
pie to plant rubber also, and there is
also agricultural development in other
directions.
"There is great enthusiasm for the
idea of a Liberian 'Tuskegee' among
all of the three sections of the COM
munity, the Americo-Liberians, the
natives, and the Europeans. I was
able thoroughly to recommend the pre-
liminary choice of a site at Kakata,
situated on the fine motor road which
is being driven through the country,
at point about 46 miles from Monro-
via, the capital. It is thus easily ac-
cessible, and is in the center of a
thickly populated district, while it is
also at a spot where the territories of
three tribes, the Bassa, Pesseh and
Golas, meet. It is on rolling ground.
is well watered and the soil is good
and will do excellently for agricul-
tural development and experiment. I
have little doubt that the scheme will
be approved by the advisory board in
New York to which I am reporting"
DR.. Taylor also paid a visit to the
Gold Coast, where he was entertained

Mr.. BRACES INJURY

Further information concerning D..
P. Bragg brought out the fact that
he owns thoroughbred setter and
a pointer. 1t was in the middle of
the night that he heard them fighting
each other and he went out to part
them. In doing so, one of them snap
ped at the other, the fangs missing
the dog, for which they were intended,
and landing in the leaders of Mr..
Bragg's arm. Apparently aware that
he had bitten his master unintention-
ally, he went off and laid down. DR..
White reports the arm as being in
good shape.
One of the dogs cost Mr.. Bragg ap-
proximately $4,000 and the other
$165.00. He could not stand for that
much money being chewed up even by
his own dogs.

IN MEMORIAM

In sweet remembrance of my dear
daughter, Dorothy Neal, who left me
eight years ago, August 21, 1921.
Dear little hands miss them so
All through the day wherever l go,
All through the night how lonely it
seems
For no little hands to wake me out
of my dreams.
I miss them all through weary hours,
miss them as you miss sunshine and
flowers, -
Daytime or nighttime wherever go,
Dear little hands I miss them so.
Just budded on earth to bloom IN
heaven.
May her soul rest in peace. -
Sadly missed and never forgotten.
BY Her Mother,
Jamie NEAL.
