The play opens with a pleasing scene in the home of a cultured Southern family that of Wil liam Trent, in which the mother ex presses her anxiety over the moodi ness and restlessness of their ado lescent son, Harold. This leads to a round table talk in hich, Harold dis closes the reason for his discontent. It is the repression from local condi tions which he resents. An altercation with a boorish white boy who bumps into him on his way to school, and the threatened violence for his daring to strike a white boy, causes his flight. The play depicts his progress in the North, hig admittance to the bar, his subsequent experiences and services, centering around a very happy ro mance. The play is a good one and has a serious purpose. The characters are well drawn. It is to be presented at St. John’s A. M. E. Church, August 8th. DELAWARE REPUBLICANS SEEK HOLD ON VOTERS Wilmington, Del., Aug. 1.— (By the Associated Negro Press). — Republic ans in this city and about the state are* leaving no stones unturned in their efforts to hold the race voters in their paries. But the outlook is very dark for the republicans and the race voters have awakened to the fact that they have been fooled long . enough and still, in which they are justified because of the blunt refusal of the republicans to help send a race , delegate to Cleveland after they had indorsed him. These and other facts , are responsible for the turn. | The name of John W. Davis calls • forth much cheering whenever he is • mentioned by race voters at their J meetings. The outspoken pledge of < Edward Henry, president of the Citi- 14 zen’s Republican Club of Philadelphia, |*j whose denunciation of the Coolidge | j party and which have caused consider- «j ible comment among the voters of *1 Pennsylvania added with that of Dr. *j R. R. Wright, president of the Citizens *j ind Southern Banking Co., also of ; Philadelphia, the voters in this little date are rising and claiming the < lomocratic nominee as the man of the 5 lour. The republican party in Dela vare is fighting with its back to the 3 wall. } Phone WKbuter 70(h) ,j LINCOLN REAL ESTATE J I ANI) INSURANCE COMPANY $ We Buy, Sell and Kent Houses. 2 We Write All Kinds of 3 Insurance. 3 C.
