HORNIMAN. the form er editor of "The Bombay Chronicle" of Bombay, is a ve5l known figure both in journalism and Indian politic. Born of English parents, and coming to India to cam his living, he has made the cause of India as his onw and has suffered an exile of four years and more. He is the fol ower of Mahatama Gandhi, and an Englishman siding with the national aspirations of the children of his adopted land was thus an eyesore to the British Government. He was spirited away during the satyagraha movement and taken to London, where he was forced to remain, as his passport was cancelled.

It is gratifying to note that after all these years he is allowed to come back. Probably he would resume the editorship of bis paper. Brutality within tha Jails. Nowhere on earth, the humanity hat been to cheap as in India. Prisoners are subjected to cruel treatment, and are flosfred with iron chains, made to stand in summer in sun baked sand of rivers, and are wrrirtoed and carted, the salted cats are mercilessly inflicted on the prisoners, till they are unconcious, are kt in winter months in icy water for hours, and sometimes days toe and some of the prisoners are confined in the un rround cells of the prison, where they never see the sunlight for months together.

This last sort of treatmerit is meted out to Indian poUxtal prisoners, who hate been confined wihoui trial under the much abused Bengal ordinances of 1818. Though the Bengal legislative countils have passed a resolution that this enact mci should go and that the prisoners detained under this regulation should be released iinconditorr.lly, and though in the British Parliament several questions to this effect were put forth, yet the government of India thinks itself to be wise in pouncing upon the liberty of the public workers and making them to suffer in order that the may made unfit to render any more Public service. The perscution in India is terrrbke. If there is hell on earth, it is the British Indian jails. Banna Barrsd.

There is famine going on in some of the parts of India, and especially in Orissa and Also the name miserable tale of famine has been repeated several pant of the country. Hence, the people who have been suf fring in all these God forsaken parti, probably thought well tf migrating to Burma to earn trieir living This was tlie time for the British Government in India to assist these famine stricken people. But to them the humanity has been cheap. They want even to rob the empty skeletons of the poeple that have been subjected to their charge, and therefore the benign British Gov ernment has been good enough to raise its income by taxing every INDIAN (mmrk.npt white) soul that rtteiBurma through any channel. 'Is this the hnitalitv and roroarrsm ot tne iniun in India.

The color bar in Africa and other British dominions was enough for Indians to think over, but this last has added fuel to the fire. Crises In South Africa.

St. Paul de Wesft Africa Pice 75 Cents On Sale at the New York Age Office '0 WEST 135ta STREET NIW Y0KK CITY Cardinal Gibbons Inst. Holds Semi Annual Farmer's Conference Ridge, Md. The success of the second semi annual Farmers' Conference held at The Cardinal Gibbons Institute, February 2Z, exceeded all expectations. Over two hundred farmers, in addition to the student body, crowded all available space in the dining hall of the Institute, and overflowed into the halls.

In opening the meeting, Mr. Daniel, the principal, laid especial stress on the impossibility of helping one racial group without automatically helping the opposite group; the un desirability of intelligent Negroes living among itinerant white people. and of intelligent white people living among ignorant Negroes. He reasserted his intention of making the Institute serve both groups, Reeling that without such mutual helpfulness, little advancement in the condition of the southern counties of the state could be made. 1 Father La Farge, the Institute's chaplain, and a member of the trustee board took the phrase "land of the Pilgrims' pride;" from the National Anthem as his subject, drawing for the farmers a very vivid picture of the rocky hill sides of the New England Pilgrims, and the difficulties in cultivation which were the daily lot of such farmers, contrasting these conditions with the naturally productive soil, level fields and mild climate of Maryland.

He gave the gathering a very excellent bit of advice; for each farmer to select from the information given by various speakers, one project which he could take home and to make a point of applying it this season. The necessity for an intelligent cooperation of the farmers with The Tobacco Growers' Association was pointed out by Joseph Mattingly of Leonardtown. Mr. Mattingly showed the farmers the advantage of an organization which could control sufficient crop to assure them a reasonably good profit for good tobacco. A number of questions relative to the control of acreage and the advisability of competition were answered and several objections caused by a misunderstanding of the functions of the organixation were explained.

Dr. Lumsden from the United State Bureau of Agriculture, spoke at length on the possibilities of establishing the bulb raising industry in Southern Maryland, pointing out the exceptional climatic and soil condi tions, peculiarly suitable for such crops, and illustrating his talk with photographs of the plants In various stages of growth. That standardization of the to bacco crop is one meant of main taining good prices, and that the grade of tobacco once it is raised de pends equally on the ability of the producer in stripping and curing it, were emphasired by Brother Carley, uirector ot tne Jesuit harms. Broth er Carley was followed bv Mr. Law.

renee Williams, of Wynne, treasurer of the Board of Trustees, and President of The Potomac Company, an organization which oromisea much lor the economic development of this section. The company plans year around activities, tomato growing and canning, bulb raising on a large scale oystering and the marketing of oys ters. Mr. Williams reemohasized in re ply to queries what he previously mentioned at the August Conference, that quality and not quantity production would stabilize the price of any crop, whether corn, tobacco, tomatoes or bulbs. He pointed out that the warehouses were already filled with an inferior grade of canned tomatoes, and advised using a smaller acreage and cultivating it systematically, giving the crop all possible care, from planting to packing.

The county agent, Mr. Wathen, after summariaing points touched on by the other speakers, suggested holding seasonal meetings, at which time the details of handling some one special crop could be talked over, covering the ground more thoroughly than would be possible in the semiannual conferences. The suggestion was approved, and the dates for such conferences will be derided upon by Mr. Wathen and Mr. Daniel and announced later.

Music was furnished by the students of the Institute. The speakvs of the day were guests at twelve o'clock at a St. Mary's County dinner prepared and served by Institute girls. Captain Brabelton of The Potomac Company was among the guests. Congressman Upshaw Talks To Students at Howard Washington, D.

The members of the faculty and student body of Howard University were addressed by Congressman William D. Upshaw of Georgia in the University Chapel Congressman Upshaw has spoken before the Howard student body on other occasions. Each year his visit is looked forward to with great interest. In his remarks Mr. Upshaw made mention of the wonderful progress made by the University.

During the assembly, Dr. Stanley Durkee, president, announced that the new gymnasium armory building will be formally dedicated on Friday, Krhnurv 25. The athletic fiM tl be dedicated early in the spring. A Prayer For The Day (By an Inmate of Jackson Prison) Oh, Lord, may I so live each day As I go on my humble way. That I may do some little thing To cause somebody's heart to sing; May I not bow to wealth and fame, But treat both king and clown the same.

And grant me breadth of view; May I forgive the faults of man And helpful be whene'er I can, And give each man his due. May all my thoughts be good to Thee And may my acts be good to see, May I not pause on one ideal But make me manlv, true and real, A man who lives for work and fun, And who from trouble does not run. And may I have no fear When shadow falls, and may I know What e'er may come of care and woe That Theu art aways nea Jackson City, Mich. THE NEW 'YORK AGE I PAGE NINE STATION A By Dr B. S.

HERBEN Of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association What Is a Moment to Yon? A man ran for a tixi cab in order to save a few moments. He slipped upon ice and killed himself. A man in pursuit of what he knew was his duty, overrode his physician's advice to go home to take preventativ pneumonia treatment and stayed on duty after having been in water to his Waist on a winter night. He died of pneumonia a few days later. A woman crossed the street when she could have waited for a minute for the traffic to change and give her right of way.

She was struck by a ear and went down to fracture her skuH and later die. A woman was in too much of a hurry to wait for someone to come and help her lift a heavy pail of hot water down from the stove and it tipped and scaklrd her so badly that she was ill for weeks How many times we thoughtlessly save a minute and risk a lifetime. It is seldom that we human beings can "beat time" and nut take punishment for So doing. Time is a man shaped convenience and tike a great number of things which he has made eventually becomes endowed with a sort of personality and "mind of its own. Machines obey laws until when a man ignores that law they appear to have a vindictive impulse to destroy their maker and master.

Vet it the individual had "gone along" with the man made thing and recognized its limitations and its importance or non importance it could not have turned and rent him. Go along betide time. Uuhre him in friendly fashion. He has limitations and his importance is overrated. He will be your slave if you learn to be master, other wise you shall become the impotent plaything of time until he summarily cuts yon off from life in the very moment in which you are worship ping.

"An hour we have! thou saidst: 'Ah, waste it well!" Quoth Fish to Dock "Quoth fish to duck, 'twill be a sad affair If this brodk leaves its channel dry i i aim To whom the duck, 'when I am dead ail taail The brook may mirage prove aught I care." Perhaps the fish knew he was canny enough to evade the net of the fishermen and so anticipated a long and happy life, providing the stream did not dry up and he was indulging I in a nine speculation. Tl. Anrt Ilk certain number of people, cared neither for his neigh bor nor nimseit, ana wore nis miurc as he did his feathers carelessly. He typifies too the person who does not heed possibilities.

4 An acnte pain in the chest, especially when followed by a chill or ferer, k. mA hv f1iirav whkfll. in iim in; i its. turn, may warn of approaching pneumoora. a para in ine worse by taking a breath is generally pleurisy.

To go to bed with such a pain is a wise thing to do, but is far from being sufficient. A truly wise person would send for the physician as well. Prompt medical and nursing care of a pneumonia patient is the means of saving many a life. It does not always avail, but that is no reason for neglecting the possibility, is it? Many of us are tempted to believe that there is not acute disease, the favorable outcome of which so largely depends upon early treatment and skillful nursing. Milder attacks of pleurisy may warn of the presence of tuberculosis and hence should never be ignored.

Both in pneumonia and tuberculosis the early diagnosis is necesv ary if serious illness and long invalidism are to be prevented and life spar ed. 4 Negro History Week Obserred at Cheraus, S. C.

Dec5tf Principal Krause Tells Parents Of Conditions At Public School 5 The following is a rep.vt of conditions amoir the students of P. 5, made 41 tin: monthly meeting the Parents Aisorstion of that school by the principal. Arthur K. Krame. 'Tliere is great considering our ac.tjrnplishniciiis, in spite ol xi.my difficulties under which we labor tcgethc: .1: ii I wis'i to stnte that I am 'ry well satiif'd with what our teachers have been able to do A study of tlve change of registers since February 1922 shows there have been 4W0 children admitted by regular transfer slips and 4300 children transferred out of the school by regular transfer slips, making a total of more than 9000 changes in the last four years.

This figure does not include the admissions at times of reorganization at the close of the terms or the number of pupils who were graduated or who went to P. S. 90. P. S.

119. S. 139 or Seyir School. This, of course, shows that we have a problem of instability. This school underwent a change also from an 8B school with shops to a 6B sdhool without shops in September 1924.

There was a loss of 7th and 8th year classes and of five shops as well. "Our work is difficult here also because of the great amount of absence of teachers. A great deal of this absentee has been occasioned by the overwork of teachers and the difficulty of their assignments Uunng the put year beginning Jenuary, 1925, there was 343 days of absence for the 60 teachers, making an average of about 6 days each The employment of substitutes causes an added duty to the Assistants to Prin cipal and to the indivdistl teachers the neighboring rooms. Changes in the per sonnel of the (acuity have also taken place. Eadh term some teachers leave and new teachers come.

"An impoTtant physical defect is the lack of facilities for handling the stu dent body outside of the building as there is no outdoor yard. This is a matter where the Parent's Association could render assistance, as there is great need for a play yard for tht small child ren. It would give us better order during the noon hot? and would be a hekt to the teachers as the children are more orderly on the school grounds than on the street. It is not fair to employ the icacncr as inc ikkxi nour roajnuun discipline in the street when he should be recuperating for the afternoon les sicn. Too many of our children do not go home to lunch.

Proper lunching and supervised activity during the noon how are probrems. "As this is a 6B school, aH chiMren who are 13 years of age might well be in the Junior High School But there is a great deal of few mentality in this school. This is shown by the figures from our testing of grades 4A16B in December 192S as well as on two pre vious ccaaions. These figures showed children of 12 yean or more using third year reader but who are old enough to be in the Jsatior High School. In grades 4A to 6B, the number of children with I.

Q. below 50 was 1. Those with Q. between 50 and 59 numbered 20. Those with I.

be tween 50 and 59 numbered 50. This made a total of 80 children who should be examined for the Ungraded Classes. There are 265 children within the group of 70 to 89 dull normal group This a total of 345 in grades 4A to 6B who are below normal partly due to the lack of opportunity they had before they came to York Cay. "The same cause is chiefly respon sible for the overage problem in this school. We have been handling these Oonditions with 13 classes of about 2) pupils each.

The teaching of tliese class es requires much experience and the teachers should hold permanent license! Uur difficulty is the lack of mxh teach ers so that relief may be given when necessary to the overworked teacher. These children shoud have more manuel instruction which will train their hands as many of them can not ex pect to hold clerical positions as their life work. It would seem desirable that as many overage pupils as possible should be accommodated in the Junior High Schools with access to training in the shops. Many of these children will be compelled to go to work before graduation. There are 179 children 13 years or more in P.

S. 5 who might well be in the Junior High School. This is a reduction from 225 to 179 in a year. "A study of home life from the reports of pupils themselves reveals the following environmental conditions. There are 131 children who do not live with either mother or father.

There are 1324 children who live with both mother and father. There are 407 children living with only one parent. The total number of replies of children is 1827. Of this number 1264 children go more or less regularly to church or Sun THE EAST INDIA HAIR GROWER Wtn Pro Hair; will Ito Rssvrs tM ftrsniriri VIUlItT Beamy 10 tn rujj If Tour Hsir is Dry sod wiry Try UkST lOI HAIR hnlhcrtd WHS Bnuman 1UI?

Many of these people are paying $63 rent where tenants formerly paid only $25 and $30. here is great need here lor social service workers, as improper environment is often the cause of delinquency. The only available place to put these delinquent colored boys seems to be in the House of Refuge or the Catholic Protectory which, after all, are places of last resort. At present the colored children are excluded from the Children's Villages.

The age from 10 to 16 is known as the religious age, whereas the period of 16 to 20 is known as the criminal Age, as the records tell us that only 2 per cent of the criminals began their criminal careers after they were 20 years of age. How to improve the environment is a difficult undertaking. The best influence should come during the first twelve vears of a child's life. "There is plenty of work in a school like P. S.

for psychologist, nurse and doctor to visit the homes of special cases. Above all it should be said that every teacher should be filled with love for her work. Her disposition for thee lass should be attractive and pleasant. The teacher should give the children an atmosphere where each pupil can well make the proper choice and thus de velope a solid character." A. M.

College Is Host To Maine Governor's Party Tallahassee, Qwernor R. W. Brewster of Maine, leader of the Maine to Florida Party, visited the A. and M. College, recently.

The Governor of Maine had been invited to Florida with a group of Maine citizens to inspect the economic, commercial, and financial facilities of the state. Governor Brewster's automobile led 94 cars carrying the Maine delegation, escorted by a committee of 250 citizens from Tallahassee The party was directed by special guides along a course that earned them around the campus and by the school farm. The beauty of the landscape and planted fields made a vivid impression upon Governor Brewster and his party, many of them were surprised that vegetables couH grow upon the college farm the year round. Returning from the drive. Governor and Mrs.

Brewster were met upon the school lawn by J. R. E. Lee, president of the Collese. The girls and boys of the school were assembled in miliUry formation ready to march to the chapel led by a band of 30 pieces.

President Lee welcomed the distinguished visitors and had the students sing melodiej requested by Governor Brewster Governor Martin was absent, having been called to Jacksonville because of the illness of Mrs. Martin. ludBe Louie W. Strum of the Su preme Court represented the Governor in welcoming the visitors, and he introduced Governor Brewster. Before speaking, Governor Brewster was greeted with the "Hymn of Maine," sung by the entire aisemblase.

Governor Brewster said: "I am very grateful to you for singing those songs of home and I shall carry back with me the fondest memories ot your Hospital itv ant courtesy. "Those wonderful melodies stmg by vour school and glee dubs are the most beatrtiful and most touching I have had the opportunity to hear. We who come from the far eastern state thank you most heartily for the inspiration they have given us. "When was in continued Gownor Brewster. "I had the pleasure of talking with that outstanding Negro character.

"Florida is enjoying an era of pros nrritv in her commercial growth and it is with pleasure that I observe the State is doing her utmost to give ner citizens the best possible education," Mrs. Brewster waj presented and heartlv greeted.
