National Negro Health Week will be observed this year from March 30 to April 6th, according to plans adopted at a meeting of twenty representatives of social and civic agencies held here last week. This annual event, which was inaugurated by the late Booker T. Washington ten years ago, has meant a great deal to the race in health education and improvement. Plans are being laid for making its observance this year more universal and effective than ever before. The movement in general is under the auspices of the National Negro Business Leafue, of which Dr. R. R. Moton is president. In the South primary responsibility for its observance is delegated to the Interracial Commission and its 800 state and county branches. Co-operating actively are national, state and local boards of health, Red Cross, Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A., medical, hygiene, tuberculosis and child welfare associations, churches, schools, colored women's clubs, chambers of commerce, fraternal orders, insurance companies, and other civic and social agencies. All persons interested in promoting public health are asked to enter actively into the observance of Heath Week. BLOOMING ROSE CLUB MEETS Mrs. Carrie Davis Entertains The rendezvous of the Blooming Rose Club No.10, on the sixth inst, was the home of Major and Mrs. H. P. Davis, of 137 Franklin street. Mrs. Elmira Nor- flett reported $3.00 dollars that Mr. Julian Maryland had raised for the club through an entertainment given at his home. This was quite a stimulus to the members present, and a liberal amount was added to it. The members present were: Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Norflett, Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Taylor, Prof. D. A. Siarks, Mr. Washington, Mr. Gus Moore, Mr. Spencer Jones and Lieut. Brown. Mrs. Davis served the club hot chocolate, cake and punch. Negro I. O. O. F.

The building will cost approximately $260,000 and will be constructed on a lot worth $85,000. This imposing structure is to be built by the Negro Odd Fellows of Texas, who have recently bought the 100 x 100 foot lot for cash, at $85,000, and who have more than $360,000 in cash in a San Antonio bank for the construction of the building.

Subject: Jealousy in the Colored Race evaded; Progressive Business home and abroad. Avoid jealousy; let there be no room in your house for Jealousy-- either to sit or stand. It is a leperous abomination. Your brother's or sister's success is your success, his victories will be your victories.

But jealousy may exist without love and that is common, for jealousy can feed on that which is bitter, no less than on that which is sweet, and is sustained by pride as often as by affection. Jealousy is poison. Jealousy may be compared to Indian arrows, so envenomed that if they prick the skin it is very dangerous, but if they draw blood, it is irrevocably deadly. The first motions that arise from this root of bitterness have their evil effects; but where the disease progresses, it poisons all our comfrots, and throws us headlong into the most tragical resolutions. News Here and There We have had the hardest winter this winter we have had since 1889 and 1917. The colored poople are coming and going; maybe we will settle down for business some day after a while. Rev. H. M. Smith, D. D., pastor of Friendship Baptist Church, Crawfordville, Ga., is doing as he usually does, a great work. Rev. N. T. Thompson, pastor of Bethlehem Baptist Church, Atlanta, Ga., is still hold "the fort" at Level Hill Baptist Church near Crawfordville, Ga. Mrs. Nancy Smith is making good at the Mt. Pleasant Public School teaching. Mrs. Bessie L. Stephens has made a splendid record at Andrws Grove teaching, also Rev. McCtay at the New Hope THE ATHENS REPUBLIQUE School and Mrs. G. B. Peek, at the Antioch School. The writer is pastor at New Hope also Antioch. We had great meetings at both churches in January. There's plenty colored people around New Hope getting ready for the 2d Shiloh. More anon. S. M. B. Usry Is Love the Greatest Thing in the World? Has the question ever been seriously thought? It has in debating clubs or romantically, but yet, the world is well lost for love. Take love in its deepest sense, it has lost much of its real meaning by the habits of people identifying it with kindness or good humor. Now let us observe love in the Christian families. We will first recall St. Paul's lyrical hymn of praise upon love in the 13th chapter of 1st Corinthians, now abideth Faith, Hope, Love and the greatest of these three, is Love. He affirms that love is superior, to faith and hope, he insists on love, as the supreme concern of Christians, because he knew that without it there could be no healthy atmosphere, for either faith or hope. Indeed we may sometime think that people never seem so irreligious as when they are members of religious society. Petty rivalries, animosities and personal feelings get the better of devotions to the cause of God. Men and women clash and quarrel over simple things, and sinners are often amused by the scandal of christains falling out inspite of their professed brotherhood. It is the common life of the church, where February 9, 1924 Show rial Institute Twentieth of meat consisting of hams, ing. love has its real test. Just as it is tested in the home, so it is in the family of the church. For love is a force and a force is tested by the obstacles it has to overcome. There is more to say on love than con be expressed. But let us love not in selfish raptures, for in our varied relationship we need to think carefully of others. Not injure them, but warn them and pray for them if we are chrischristians. The good of others in our religious fellowship is the real essence of love. Mrs, S. M. E. Gordan, organist for Ebenezer Baptist Church, was out again Sunday-- to the delight of friends. On Tuesday night, Jan. 29th, Miss Mattie L. Gowdor, of 300 Glenn ave.. had as her guest for a musical party, Misses Christine Smith and Marie Craft. There will soon be no stumbling out the west side of the city, the residents out there are "wiring up." Mrs. M. E. Hardeman Active with Auxiliaries Mrs. M. E.

Then the chairman gave the other space for visiting friends. ```markdown ``` February 9. 1924 Young Christians Training Club Meets Around the warm fires of their home the Young Christians' Training Club entered almost voluntarily into an expression meeting which lasted just long enough. Many seemed to have been touched by the fullness of each others' hearts. At the end of the meeting Mrs. Alexander served s course a course of cake and jelly. The attendants were: Deacon Whit Hill, Johh and Rufus Hightower, Misses Lusie Braswell, Ilene Jones, Brown Hunter, Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Alexander and Lt. Brown. Miss Lula Saggus, of 239 Finley st. spent Sunday Geb. 3d, with Miss Mamie Favors, of Pearl St. 'Twas quite a pleasant outing for the friends that gathered. First A.M.E. Church Planning Rally First A.M.E. Church Planning Rally The pastor and members of the First A. M. E. Church are beginning to make plans for their spring rally to come off sometime in April. The other churches are to remember how faithful these people have been during their winter campaigns of whatever nature. Hence they should lend them a helping hand. But would that be the right spirit? No. We should help them because as fellow passengers to eternity we owe them whatever assistance we can give them irrespective of what they may have done for us. Therefore our appeal is merely one of brotherly love urging us to do our duty in this struggle. DR. W. H. HARRIS RETURNS Dr. W H. Harris, of the trio who represented Georgia at the Republican apportionment conference at Washington two weeks ago, has returned. Dr. Harris assures his comrades that they have nothing to doubt or fear under the present administration. THE ATHENS REPUBLIQUE FRIENDSHIP HAS HIGH On Sunday, Feb, 3d, a day that God made ideal for services, the people gathered in large numbers at Friendship to give thanks to the God of their fathers. The pastor, the Rev. J. F. Henry, was at his best; and the services were greatly enjoyed by all. The Sunday School was also largely attended. Mesdames Roxie Barnett, Hattie Haneey, Miss Lucy Barnett, Messrs, Ence Barnett, Bost Barnett and Mr. Hardeman of Winterville were the guests of Mrs. Mary Barnett, of Comer, Ga., Sunday, Feb. 3d. A joyful time was spent. Rev. E. M. Griffin, of Ebenezer Baptist Church, has moved to Atlanta, Ga. Miss Juliet A. Derricotte, the cultured daughter of Mr. and Mrs. I. T. Derricotte, was recipient of a signal honor in the city of N. Y., being a member of the National Board of a popular Y. W. C. A. seat, was elected to the World's Student-Christain Federation, which meets in Europe early in the summer. She is the only Afro-American of the ten delegates chosen from the United States. It will be remembered that Miss Derricotte graduated from the Athens High School School with first honor and also from Talladega College with the same, and was valedictorian of her class. She will have the pleasure of bowing to the owned heads. Rev. U. S. Roberts Preaches in Athnes Rev. U. S. Rocerts, a traveling evangelist, was invited to speak at Ebenezer Baptist Church Sunday February 3d. Rev. Roberts is a young man of great power. This was exhibited by his forceful message Sunday. On the 5th inst. Rev. Roberts conducted the devotions at Jeruel Baptist Institute. In speaking to the students he drew his theme from Isaiah 55:1.--Ho, every one that thirsteth come ye to the waters. Rev. Roberts has the honor having studied at Moorehouse College where he received the title of B. D. He expects to move his headquarters from Robinson, Ga., to Macon, Ga., shortly. 8 Mrs, Pinkie Brunt, an instructor in the East Athens School, is indisposed at this writing. We hope that the duration of her illness will be short. We are grieved to learn of the very serious illness of Mr. Richard Harris, one of our best known and esteemed citizens. The cheerful countenance and kind words of Brother Harris, backed up by whatever practical good he could do, has caused many a disheartened person to take heart again. Let us hope that a man like Brother Harris will live to attain to a ripe old age to scatter the sunshine of his soul. Club News On the twenty-third day of January last, the people of "Morton's Chapel Community" responded to the call of Farm demonstrator, D. A. Starks, of Clarke County. The purpose of the meeting was to organize a club, which organization is designed to improve farm, social, economic and general living conditions among the people at large. After the purpose of the meeting had been fully explained by the farm demonstration, the house was then opened for business. First in order was the election of officers. The body saw fit to honor Rev. Tom Morse by electing him as their club leader. Deacon W. F. Kenney, of Chestnut Grove community was then called upon to tell the club how much he was both helped and inspired as a result of attending the "Negro Farmers' Conference" at Tuskegee Inst. Ala. Rev. TOM MORSE, Club Leader. Miss Daisy Mae Harris, of 286 Brige gest., will leave Sunday Feb.10, for Knoxville, Tenn., where she will spend a few weeks with her sister, Mrs. Ella Wingfield. Then she will continue her trip to Warren, Ohio, where she will make her home with her brother, Mr. Thomas Harris. Miss Harris has a great many friends and all regret very much to have her leave them; but wish her much joy and happiness in her new home. Mrs. Anna Pruitt, of 672 N.

It is always a gift to have Mrs. Ellis with you in a meeting of that kind. Second, Rev. Reid spoke on the duty of Juniors, which was very encouraging. Next Rev. John Ware read and discussed to us the 96 Psalms. He brought to us more light on our work. Last but not least comes one of the most energetic young woman of our city, full of enthusiasm with children, and as a rule all fine goods are done up in small packages. She delivered the goods to us, Mrs. Irene Jones. The chairman thanks Mrs. Jones for her willingness to play for us on the occasion as the painist was absent. The program was especially to raise something for the sick. We had out little mission envelopes.

Sister Hardeman, we thank you once, we thank you twice. Through the Ebenezer Mission was raised a surprise for Mrs. Mary Epps and her daughter, Miss Abbie Epps last Thursday night. The only thing we re- gret is that all of Ebenezer didn't know about the surprise because they and their home is to the church what a mother is to the home, and we cannot express or be able to surprise them for their kindness and willingness. We pray for you two God's blessings upon you and that God will prolong your days on the earth. They were muchly surprised when we entered the house and happy to know they were being remembered.

Adams, of the Republican National Committee, has returned to town from a visit through the middle west. He said he had found industrial conditions very favorable ih the regions he visited, with visible signs of a general picking up of business. "One thing which impressed me, said Chairman Adams, "waa the friendly attitude of the people toward the administration and the Republican regime. I heard many expressions of friendliness, from democrats as well as republicans, for the administration. "Business is improving; the farmers are coming back, and conditions are looking up all along the line. As to political conditions for the republican party, I am more than pleased at the prospect. I was exceedingly gratified over the industrial outlook, for that spells welfare for the whole country." SISTER AMANDA JONES DIES The death angel visited Sister Amanda Jones Sunday morning, January 27th 1924, and the great spirit was freed from the cares of this life, and like a bird to the mountains, fled heavenward to be received by God who gave it. She was taken with a chill on the 17th, and this led to complications from which she never recovered. Sister Jones was born in Oglethrope County in 1866. Hence, at the time of her death she was in her fifty-eighth year. She was carried to Augusta in her early childhood and during her life there she became a member of Springfield Baptist Church. In 1891 she came to Athens and during the pastorate of Rev. I. R. Hall she connected herself with Hill's First Baptist Church. She died in the ranks of this church, having been a faithful member for thirty-three years. Sister Jones had been a hard working woman all her days. She was honest, upright and minded her own business; she had those essentials that will carry you to heaven. R. H.
