The real trouble with the piece, indeed, was that it was largely made of echoes and patches of this and that which had surceeded before in Negro plays plus bits of rather crude melodrama which scarcely fitted in with the main theme.
Frank Wilson played the role of the successful prophet with an earnestness and fervor which might have been expected from what he has done before. Alex Lovejoy was ROVER first class as the hardboiled king, who to make money, was quite F! ready as anybody to exploit his own people. All the rest of the large cast were Negroes with the exception of 419 the three or four white men repres enting the British in Africa.

But if, as the State editor sug be gests, the Abyssinians cannot claimed by the black race, can they be claimed by the white, asks Pro fistor Adam. To this question SCFLFLFFLFFLFFLLLL supplies a negative answer and it dicates that the Abyssinians, thiopians, have always claimed the blacks of other countries their brothers.
