Various Phases of Race Problem Ably Discussed By Prominent Local
Citizens.
A "Congress on the American Negro" to discuss the problems of the day, and to cause the people to think of these problems, since "a thinking people cannot be enslaved either physical or mentally," was held at Bethel Church, Monday and Tuesday of lost week.
On the first days session Carl L. Murphy associate editor of this paper, discussed the achievements of the Press, and urged the schools to take some account of Journalistic training. Mr. Wm. W. Litzgerald spoke of the Negro in Business, remarking the tendency of the modern business man to assume a share of the responsibility of church management. Rev. Geo. F. Bragg gave a history of the Negro Church, and Dr. E. Mayfield Boyle told of some celebrated colored physicians and their work. Dr. Boyle urged patronage of those physicians only, who make themselves capable thru study and work.
SECOND DAYS SESSION
Speaking on the Negro in Music, Mr. Llewlyn Wilson said that its collective influence was greater than the achievement of individuals. The folk songs constitute a worthy contribution to American music, but as yet there are few composers who have a place themselves. John H. Murphy, Managing Editor of the Afro-American predicted that as a result of the Exodus of workmen from the South, there would be no more jimcrow cans after ten years. His subject was the "Exodus and its effects upon the future."
Mr. Mason Hawkins spoke of the Negro in Education and Dr. E. Verry Stokes spoke briefly of some colored writers and inventors. Mr. Howard E. Young, director of the Congress, urged a heartier race cooperation, a stronger race pride and more of the evidence of the kind of courage displayed at the High School Commencement last week.
The Symphia Orenestra, under the direction of Mr. Amurose Briscoe, furnished music both nights, Mr. John W. Brown, Miss Mamie Gregory and Mr. Edw. Burnett gave musical numbers. Dr. J. H. Thompson and Rev. W. Sampson Brooks, were the presiding officers.
SUMMER SCHOOL CLOSES.
Secretary Booker Among the Speakers
Harpers Ferry, W. Va., June 26—The Cheesapeake Summer School closed its tenth session Wednesday of this week. This school is one of the standardized summer schools for the training of Y. M. C. A. secretaries. There were fifty or more men in attendance, representing twenty different associations, including the Panama Canal Association. The number would have been much larger were it not that many of the men are rushing building campaigns and completing war work programs. Three of the young men who attended the school will sale on July 15th for Africa to do Y. M. C. A. work among the Indian troops, where three of the brotherhood are working at present. The summer school closed with a big mass meeting held in the Storer College chapel. A large number of people from the community were in attendance and shared honors in paying a tribute to the flag and to the daring deeds of colored men who have offered their service and their lives in every war of American history. S. B. Booker represented the Baltimore association and spoke on the "Negroes Contribution to American History in the Past." Dr. J. E. Moorland, the director of the school closed the meeting with an appear to the men to "remember the past, do your bit nobly and well, whether at home, on the farm, in the factory or store and say as Cornish of old, 'it never touched the ground.'"
ARRESTED FOR
WRITING POETRY
Poem on "Cracker" Law Rites Whites,
Arrests Follow
Savannah. Gn. June 24.—A long piece of poetry, dealing with the hardships colored people have to stand in Georgia under the "Cracker," enjoyed undisturbed circulation until it came into the hands of the whites of the town. Colored folk having the poem in their possession were arrested until the main instigators were found. Here are two of the many stanzas that riled the whites: —
"From Savannah's stormy hanks I go, I'll bid the South good-bye; No longer shall they treat me-go.
My cross is more than double—
If the chief executive can be found
I'll tell him all my trouble.
"If me and a cracker should have a
fight.
And he knock me 'in the jaw;
It's counted to me as being 'right.'
According to the cracker's law.
But if I swing on the cracker's jaw.
With all my feeble might.
Right from the
From that will start a war,
And I'll have the state's fight.
ST. LOUIS Y. M. C. A. STARTED
New $150,000 Building Now in Course of Construction
St. Louis, Mo, June 25—A contract for the erection of the Y. M. C. A. building to cost $150,000 was awarded recently and the structure is to be completed within one year. Work on the new building has already begun.
The new building will be at the corner of Ewing avenue and Pine street, and will cover the entire block 180 feet square, fronting on Pine street. It will be four stories in height and will contain a swimming pool, gymnasium, one hundred dormitories, cafeteria, classrooms and a full regulation equipment for a Boy's Department as well as for men.
The new Y. M. C. A. department results from a campaign about a year ago in which the Negroes raised $69,000 as their share of the cost. The St. Louis campaign broke all records for the largest amount raised by Negroes for a Y. M. C. A. building in an American city. The largest single subscription made by a Negro to a Y. M. C. A. building in this country was $5,000 by A. E. Malone.

McCullum sailed from Norfolk, Va., March 14, on the Craonean. The ship was torpeded. He was picked up by the ship Craenmoney, bound from South America to Scotland. A German submarine held up this ship, and after an investigation, gave the crew eight minutes to get in life-boats. McCullum remained in a life-boat for four days and nights. He was picked up by a British ship and taken to Glasgow. For several weeks he was held prisoner awaiting orders from London for a release. The American consul at Glasgow admitted that Sandy looked like an American, but told him that his name was Scotch. Sandy explained this by reason of his ancestors having been owned by a Scotchman. He arrived in the United States June 9.

BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, JUNE 30. 1917
AT DES MOINES CAMP

Note:—A graduate of Howard University, editor of the college weekly, Master of Arts from Cornell and now instructor at Howard University, is the author of the following article, This Baltimore rookie speaks well of the fine type of men we have at Des Moines.—Editor.
BY A BALTIMORE ROOKIE
Fort Des Moines, Ia., June 26.—The organization of the 17th Provisional Training Camp for Colored Officers at Fort Des Moines is now practically complete. The candidates started the second week of their camp life with sore arms, as a result of the second injection of typhoid serum and in some cases as a result of a second vaccination for smallpox too in case the first did not "take." The Maryland, New Jersey and Delaware boys, together with some of the New York and Virginia quota form Company No. 2. Commanding Co. No. 2 is Sergeant-Major W. B. Williams of the 24th Infantry, U. S. A.; Sergeant Alonzo Campbell,24th Infantry is supply-sergeant; Sergeant J. C. Pinkston, 24th infantry is sergeant; Sergeant N. S. Gould, U. S. Gould is the senior instructor. The "班客" have received nine text books to date as a basis of the course of instruction. The permanent officers named above are assisted in giving instruction by fifteen other sergeants and corporals from the Tenth Cavalry and the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Infantry. They alternate in carrying on the work.
NEWCOMERS FROM HAWAII
Saturday afternoon an assignment of officers from the Ninth Cavalry and Twenty-fifth Infantry, reached camp. They had come from the Hawaiian Islands. Their arrival was a signal for prolonged applause from their brother officers and from the "rockies" in particular. The barracks of the entry officers face the main entrance of the fort, running consecutively at number from 1 to 12, with Nos. 13 and 14 in the rear. It was an imposing sight to see these regulars receive their numbers and then head across the parade grounds to their respective barracks and meet the noisy welcome of the officers-to-one.
HARD ON "CRACKETS"
Lieut. Colonel George W. Ball of the First Iowa Infantry throw a bomb into the camp of "cracker" restaurant keepers of Des Moines. One of these keepers refused to feed Negro officers from Fort Des Moines. Lieut. Col. Bal notified Safety Superintendent Ben Woolgar that unless Des Moines restaurant owners fed these men as well as white patrons, action would be started immediately to close their places of business.
"This is government business and there can be no refusar to serve food to these men," said Colonel Ball.
Superintendent Woolgar said the government could order immediate closing of the restaurants or chop suey places declining to feed any soldier.
WHAT THEY EAT
What do the members of the Officers Training Camp get to eat? This is a question which is often asked. At first thought one has visions of beans, salt meat and hardtack, that famous Civil War menu. The "rookies" are allowed seventy-five cents a day for their mess. This is divided into portions to be spent for meat, vegetables, etc. Eighteen cents is the allowance for meat, which is charged for at the rate of 11.17 cents per pound. Thirty per cent of the meat is corn beef, fish and salt pork, while the remaining seventy per cent is fresh. Butter and olean margarine are used on the fifty-fifty plan.
RECEIVES COMMISSION
One of the first to be recommended for commission, from the colored noncommissioned officers is Sergent George P. Cooper, who has been recommended for a captaincy, by the adjutant general, in the quartermaster's department. Sergent Cooper has twenty-seven years' service to his credit, leaving but three more to serve before retirement.
Over three hundred thousand dollars monthly will be paid out at Fort Des Moines for salaries and for food. The quartermasters department finished the requisitions during the week for the month and everything is being delivered on reasonable time and very satisfactorily.
ONLY THREE REJECTED
Only three candidates have been rejected by the physical examiners at the fort. One because he was too big, and two because they were too small. The man who was over-weight tipped the scales at 260 pounds, and in spite of his record as captain of the Forty-eighth Volunteer Infantry in the Spanish-American war he had to be turned down.
Sergeants Walter C. Lyons, H. D. Queen and H. C. Huston, Now at Fort Des Moines, Were in The Battle Fort Des Moines, Ia., June 25.—Last Thursday was the first anniversary of the battle of Carrizal, in which two troops of the Tenth United States Cavalry met several hundred soldiers of the Carranza troops near Carrizal, Mexico. In recalling the battle in an interview in a local paper the veterans grew quite reminiscent, even to the extent of remembering the initials and first names of all officers taking part in the battle. Troops C and K were sent by General Pershing to Villa Ahumada, a Mexican town, to investigate the report that Villa had 10,000 troops in that region. The two troops each taking a different route arrived at Santo Domingo Ranch early on the afternoon of June 20, 1916.
PASS THRU CARRIZAL
To get to Villa Thumada the troops had to pass through Carrizal, which is a little over two hundred miles from the American border. They arrived at Carrizal about 6 A. M. on the morning of June 21. Joe, their Mexican scout was sent to ask permission to pass through the town on their way to Villa Ahumada.
Before Joe could return, a Mexican officer, Colonel Rivas came out with a body guard and a regiment of soldiers. Captain Boyd went forward with an interpreter to confer with the Mexican colonel. By this time Joe returned with a note from General Gomez, who commanded the Carranza forces, in which he refused to allow Capt. Boyd and his troops to advance.
Gen. Gomez told Capt. Boyd to about face and goback, that is North. But as Captain Boyd's orders wege to go South he gave orders to his almshirms. The Mexicans opened are both with pine hine and rifle, most of which went high and killed horses which were being led by troops into the rear.
GEN GOMEZ KILLED
General Gomez made a fine target for the boys by galloping along and behind the line. Prisoners captured reported that he received enough shots to kill ten men. Of course, when the Mexicans charged, about six hundred strong, the men of the Tenth found it very hot for their very small number and deployed to a clump or trees. These men held the enemy for two hours giving the main force time to retreat. After a very difficult journey over Mexican desert lands, those separated from the main forces were able to get back to base. The regular army men here are anxious to get into battle again and the rookies too are anxious to do their bit for Uclee Sam.
NO SECOND TRAINING CAMP
Washington, June 28—In reply to a query as to when and where the second camp for the training of colored officers would be established, the War Department made the following reply today.
"Respectfully returned with the information that the training camp for colored citizens has been closed having received its authorized number of candidates. The War Department has not authorized any second training camp for colored men."
As reported in the Afro-American Captain Van Horn, supposedly speaking for the War Department, told a Washington audience that a second training camp would be established along with the regular camp for whites.
Y. M. C. A. AT CAMP
Des Moines, In. June 24.—A half day Saturday and all day Sunday, Des Moines rookies are left to their own devices. On other days their time is so taken up that very few minutes are free. At the end of the week tho, the coming officers get a chance to run over to town, six miles distant, for a little recreation. Most of the men prefer to sit around and nurse their aching joints, studying a little, patching worn garments, and writing long detailed document to "Dear Alice and "My own Marie," back at home.
The army Y. M. C. A. has located at Fort and is doing a big business. Last night they dedicated their big canvas tent. Every day the men gather in the tent when not on duty, and much of their camp life surrounds the association home. There are desks, with writing paper and ink, for writing home; there are chairs and a platform for speakers' and singers' programs, and piano and victoria were recently installed. A number of good singers have been found among the men and nightly programs by quartets and soloists are a feature of the camp life.
MAKE COMMUNITY CENTRES
OUT O FTHE SCHOOLS.
All of the local schools have not citizens' associations, which use the buildings as a forum for community activities. The following bulletin urges a larger use of the schools, and employment of children outside of school hours.
"During school hours and out of school, on mornings, afternoons, Saturdays and during vacation all older children and youth should be encouraged and directed to do as much useful productive work as they can without interfering with their more effective moral training, and provision should be made for tills. While the war for the safety and democracy is in progress and when it is over there will be greater need for effective machinery for the promotion of intelligent discussion of the principles of democracy and all that pertains to the public welfare of local communities, counties, states and the Nation. To this end every schoolhouse should be made a community centre and civic forum with frequent meetings for the discussion of matters of public interest and for social intercourse."
FIFTY-EIGHT YEARS AGO
"Negro Acting as Pastor for White People"
"On Lynn Creek, Giles County, Tennessee, there is a hardshell Baptist Church, supported by a number of wealthy people of that 'persuasion' who for several years past have had for their regular pastor, a Negro man, black as the ace of spades, named George, known as Bentley's Old George, and belonging to the estate of one Matthew Bentley, deceased. George is said to be most excellent man and a good preacher. Sometimes ago, he had a noted public discussion, lasting four days with a white preacher, on the subject of baptism, from which the white man is said to have come off (if any difference) second best. The church wants to buy George, but he is not willing to be sold out of his master's family; and is withal a regular Southern pro-slavery parson. George is the "preacher in charge" of a large congregation, nearly all of whom are slaveholders, and who pay him a salary of $600 to $700 for his pastoral services."

33 Out of 43 Thus Eligible for Appointment as Teachers.
At the meeting of the School Board last Wednesday, afterpoor Superintendent Koch recommended thirty-six of the graduates of the Training School for the substitute list of city teachers.

BIG FIGHT IN G. O. P. RANKS
That a fight will take place within the Jacobian ranks, for control of the many machinery, is believed by many to be contemplated. "The morrowd of East Baltimore, is so near to us to see William F. Stone in his place as my leader. That he continued away of some of the Senate leaders in the various words to a similar thread, the antithesis seems to say, particularly that of Henry S. Cummings, in the Seven-ninth War. Then after the November election, Senator Prince and Owenton E. Wesley took office jointly in the Carver Building, right along side of those of L. Tolk zephethan State Chairman, Polks began to wonder what Tracey and Weber meant. Prince William J. Jackson, Weber and Tolk opposed the war loan bill and Governor Harrington gave out the presidential of the commission that will handle the money.
Republican Leader Stone, who was moving a picture sensor by Governor Hawrington and former Governor Goldsborough were together to over both urging the Republicans to vote for the Hawrington war program.
That the political opposition engendered by State against Goldsborough still lingered, was indicated when gentle Prince Weller and Tait requested to accept William T. Warburton as a member of the commission of the ground that he is too close to Goldsborough.
Weller is said to champion the belief that he would have been elected Governor in 1816, but for lukewarm support in some quarters. The President though some, held up with Warburton in the eleventh hour, and the only elected man. The State moved then presides to pay off the President Miles folks with lemon."
BOS SCOTT ACTIVITIES
There will be a big Mass Meeting at A. M. E. Church, Lexington and Luther schools. We have secured four prominent speakers for the occasion.
I. John Murphy, Sr. Chief Scout
J. Jean Fiddes, Morgan College
Mission is being taken in the Big Spring troops concerning the Forum of July Safe and Same Celebration at Durand Hill Park.
Lookout for the big quarterly meeting at Eleanor A. M. E. Church, Lily 18, 1977. Every Scout Master of every active troop will be there with his boys.
Meant to invade comment followed the work of two Wating boys, Masters Charles J. King and Eugene Merritt, in the recent Children's Day Evening Service. A two joint program was conducted. Part I, consisting of highly credible renditions by the "ittle boys" and senior scholars. Part II, consisting of a series of lyrics for congregations, singing illustrated by crossword puzzles projected life images on a screen. The lantern used for the occasion was made by the above named boys assisted by Master Charles Sanders of Waters and Master Charles Thompson of Snappy St. Memorial Church. The lantern as first painted and used as the late Boy Scout Memorial Service at St. Johns A.M. E. Church gave very good results using a powerful quadrupole consuming oxygen gas.
Frequently however the pattern has been equipped with electricity and the results have been so gratifying that the boys feel doubly encouraged. The pattern is now being used nearly every Sunday at Waters Sunday School for special illustration of the International Lessons.

For 17 years I was tormented with a terrible skin disease which the doctors called ECZEMA. It set me at times almost crazy from itching. Daring those years, I went to hospitals and tried about 30 doctors without relief. The disease never checked. My son took me to Dr. Campbell, the specialist, 1369 N. Carey street, Baltimore. Md. He treated me months ago and I now completely if anyone happens to suffer with such awful skin disease, go to Dr Campbell who, I believe, can cure anything a person was not born with, and he is, to my mind, the best doctor in the world.

mouthpieces for his arguments, and
ai of the shop-worn assertions of Ne-
‘gro inferiority ave cleverly and com-
pletely squelched.
In reply to a statement cnat whites
are socially superior, Mr. Asbury has
his porter to say?

‘On the question of the Indian's

' to submit to slavery, the porter states:
“phe decline of Indian slavery was
due largely to the fact that it proved
N° economic. failure. ‘The Indian
SGura not stand the harcships, nor the

from smalipox, consumption and syph-

more valuable than either one. One

much as nine Indians.”
‘The porter is not satisfied to parry
the thrusts © the Southerner, but he
attacks him 1 x vital spot—the Chrls-
tianity of the South.
“Bere Is a religion, which declares
that ite founder died to save all men

in such countles as Charles and Cal-

Perhaps the happiest people on
earth are those who fire satisfied with
the lot into which providence has cast
them. No more disconted, dissatis-
fied, und unhappy individual lives than
the peasant, who forever envies the
lot of kings; than the poor spend-
thrift, who thinks himscl the world’s
inost despised creature. and believes
that ure smiles and the blessings of
this worl aro predetermined for the
rich man alone; or than the Negro
who believes the whito skin of more
worth than wisdom or character.
Yet, it would not be well to con-
demn this spirit of dissatisfactino in
the people of the world which so fre-
quently manifests itself in hatred and
Jentousy and prejudice. This spirit,
which {s the cause of unhappiness Is
niso the germ of all progress, ‘The
pousant who wishes for hiiwsell king-
ly powers, vises up agalnst his lord
and y democracy comes to take the
pluee of a monarchy. ‘The envious
spendthritt mends his ways, becomes
frugal, and eventually a rich miser,
And the Negro {s becoming: to regard
his color as a badge of ‘distinction and
not one of humiliation. A white cor-
respondent of the daily precs remark-
ed recently that her colored neigh-
bors seemed to think themselves vet-

This spirit of dissatistaction has not
always been regarded as the mother
of progress. Only recently has this
idea been able to gain ground against
tho medieval and early prenepts of ac-
tion, which admonished the downtrod-
don to .be content, the humble to be
humbler still, and the despised to be
gentle and not wrthy.
Something of this medieval spirit
clings to the following words of Ros-
coe Conklin Simmons, nephew of the
late Booker T. Washington, delivered
before a body of high schoo! graduates
In Little Rock, Arkansas Inst week.
Mr. Simmons said:
“I should rather be an American
Negro with my face, coward the fu-
ture, standing on the’ memory of Lin-
coln, holding in mychand the flag of
Grant and Curney, than to sit uon
any ancient throne’ my ancestors may
have known in the bloom of @ day
past and forever gone."

mons’ words before these high school
boys and girls. Placing the emphasis
here is certainly correct according to
medieval ideas, Mr. Simmons wishes
jto inculcate pride in the modern Ne-
gro and that is good. But was it nec-
essary.to do’ this at the expense of be-
lttiing-what our ancestors accomplish:
ed? ‘We do not think this was neces-
‘sary.

A FOURTH OF JULY ELOPEMENT
THAT WAS A BIG SURPRISE.
Silence hung drowsily about the old farm house; the day was sulty-hot, and the blinds were all down and windows closed since early morning.
"To keep it cool," said Luce Emma, but the door stood a little way open, a long-legged, half-grown chicken waived specially up on the porch, looked first at a big tortoise cat lying under a chair and then at the old man sitting so dependently in the slat bottomed rocker, picked up a stray crumb, and strolled leisurely away again. Pa Caney usually waved his cane at the chickens and shoved them away, but today he was lenient, in fact he was too busy thinking of the Fourth of July Celebration that was to be held at Hanover, the colored settlement about five miles from his home.
Pa Caney's farm was a little more than 600 acres, well tilled, well stocked and housed of good buildings. It was run by his son-in-taw and daughter and Pa said. "They had so many different ways of farming, that he had to take a back seat," when the truth of the matter was that Pa had been foolish and not very thoughtful when Luce Emma got married, and as she was his only child, and had married a smart young fellow, who had graduated from an agricultural school, and then taken a post graduate course in scientific farming. Pa thought as he was getting old he would turn the farm over to Luce Emma and Charles William and let them farm it; but he was to live at the farm and work if he wished and let it alone if he wished. After six months trial, Pa would have gladly taken the farm back again and put Luce Emma and Charles Williams, both out doors; but a bargain was a bargain and he could do anything about it. "I declare," he told the widow Hubbard, "I don't even dare call my soul my own. I can't get a team to drive or a horse to ride when I want it. I raised that boy mare just for riding, and Charles Williams has put her to work in the field, has her plowing and pulling large wagons and she was as pretty a little filly as ever paused that Baltimore pike. He got himself a big new automobile, and won't learn me to run that, saying I'm too marvous. The idea of me being marvous. I polare before goodness Mis Hubbard, it's enough to drive an old man to commit suicide. I'm old, it is true, but seventy is a long way from a undirid and I can do my share with the best of them. I'm simply tired of being bossed by, by a young "snipe like Charles Williams Bowney."
The widow Hubbard had laughed and said, "Mr. Caney it is better to be bossed about by a son-in-law who really knows something, than to be bossed about by one's daughter-in-law who doesn't know any more about housekeeping and cooking than a three year old child. She dresses up in smart white house-dresses to do the dusty work in, and I'm good enough to stand and iron all day them white dresses; but never mind, I'll hair her off yet, slicker'n a peeled onion."
All these thoughts chased thru pa Caney's mind as he sat miserably there on the porch.
"I declare" he thot, "its so miserably lonesome today, that even the cheekies is comp'ny." If I'd known how pigeon lonely hit'd a-been, I'd a gone over to widow Hubbard's."
"The day is most gone now and them two will soon be trapping home again, and the cows are to be milked, stock fed, and I guess old Pa Caney can cut some wood and the cows to pasture. I gittin doggie tired 'o this kind o'doin's. I just feel like I'd like to run away and never come back away and I kin buy that ole' Griffith farm and live in peace."
The trouble all started about the Fourth. That Emancipation Celebration had brought discord in both Pa Caney's and the Widow Hubbard's households. Pa Caney wanted to hear the Honorable John Morgan speak, and the Widow Hubbard wanted a new dress, and of course the young folks had planned a big day and didn't want the old folks along, the result was friction.
To-day Luce Emma and Charles Williams had gone to Sunshine to buy a new hat and dress for Luce Emma and a new hat and shoes for Charles Williams, and perhaps a new suit, if he could find one like he wanted. He wanted a neutral gray and that he must have, no other color would suit and if they didn't have the kind he wanted at Sunshine then he thought he would motor into Baltimore the next day and get it, and Pa Caney had been at home to look after things, and to hoe the cabbage in the garden, and if he got thru in time, he was to fix that old harness out in the barn.
"The ideal," said Pa Caney, "bossing me about and telling me what to do. I'll take no more orders." Ah he thought now of the work he had not done, he knew there would be a fracas at supper time. But he did not care, "he would show Luce Emma and her man whether he was too old to go chasin' about to getherin's or not."
Pa sighed, stretched his arms, then his legs and feeling that they were all right, he got up and went in the house. It was now four o'clock, and the house was still, almost to the point of oppression. Only the sound of swaying boughs swishing against the walls was to be heard from without, while within there was nothing to disturb the absolute serenity of the place, unless it was the beating of Pu's heart and the tick of the great clock in the dining room beyond.
"Time they wuz a gettn home," Pa grunted. "Nearly milkin time; they sartinly do take a powerful long time to pick a few duds ro wear. Here I be, I haven't had a new suit for ten years this coming fall, and I, look good enuf to go to anybody's getherins and I'm goin too. I don't care what Luce Emma says
As he stood hands in pocket, head drooped in thought, he had forgotten place or time. And yet what sound was that? Did a hinge creak, or had he been alone so long that he was nervous? No, that's Luce Emma's voice calling him; but he did not move.
Suddenly the kitchen door new open and Luce Emma and Charles Williams stood in their arms full of packages; Luce Emma looked at Pa Caney and turning threw her bundles on the table.
let Charles Williams take you to the Doctors to see about your hearing. We called you at least a half-dozen times and Charles Williams blew the auto horn a half-dozen times at the least, and you standing right in the kitchen and not hearing. It certainly beats all. Charles Williams wanted you to help me with the damages and he would put the auto away to help you with milking. Did you drive the cows in the yard and feed the hogs?"
"No, I didn't Luce Emma and what's more?" Pa broke off and went out it was as well perhaps that he say no more just now. He would take a walk down to the river and overlook the Griffith place that joined his. The present was not the time to express the feelings awakened in him by the careless treatment of his daughter and her husband. He would bide his time it was a week or at least five days yet until the Fourth. (To be continued.)
THE WEEKLY SERMON
"The Four Beasts of Daniel's Dream"
Continuing the study of the 7th chapter of Daniel we wish to connect with the second beast, or kingdom, a text in Isaiah 13:15-19 in which inspiration gives a clear description of the character of the kingdom represented by the bear. The Medes were not a people desirous of gaining territory for the gratification of architectural ambition, as were the Eubilianians, but rather the Medes were cruel, blood-thirsty, intensely wicked without regard for silver or gold (Isa. 13:17). GOD in His wisdom saw every characteristic of the world wide kingdoms and recorded such years before they existed. The three ribs in the bear's mouth represent the three kingdoms of Egypt, Lydia and Eubiliany that stood out against the Medes and Persians, that must be conquered before this kingdom could be a universal kingdom.
"And after this I beheld, and in another like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl: The beast had also four heads and dominion was given to it" Dan. 7-6. The third kingdom was Grecia, even the Bible says so (Dan. 8-1-4 and verses 20-21.) Alexander the great stood at the head of this kingdom-history says that he conquered the world in just fifteen years. The wings of this beast (4) showing that it was able to conquer in half the time that it took kabyon, or the lion had but two wings and the leopard four. The beast had also four heads. After Alexander died, his four leading generals took the kingdom, dividing it toward the four points of the compass fulfilling this part of the wonderful dream. In verse eight of Daniel seven, the prophet describes a beast that he cannot manify. He knows not one creature in all the animal kingdom that he compare it to. It is worst in every respect than it. the rest before it, and it had ten horns and another little horn that Daniel heard speaking against the Most High (verse 25.) This was a blasphemous power, one that hated all the saints of God. It endeavored to stamp them out and even worst than this, it meddled with the law of GOD, thinking itself able to change it. The fourth kingdom was Rome, and imasmuch as all the other kingdoms fulfilled the part of the prophecy relating to them, so this wicked, world-wide kingdom did the very things that God pointed out and even worse than this, it medGOD. To take Him at His word. O: if men could learn to understand that His word is the truth, then dear friends we would stir from this spiritual lechery into which so many have fallen, and instead, daily walk close with the LOITD.

Free advice on Beauty and Hair Culture by a Specialist of Washington, D. C., Mrs. J. Frances Osman.
Answer. Wash your hair and scalp once a month, if possible at the time of the increase of the moon. Do not use soap as it is too drying, use our high grade shampoo powder, when hair is dry apply to the scalp some good imported Bay Rum, which is made from Bay Leaves and is a tonic to your dying hair, and as soon as your scalp is dry use a good hair pomade one that does not contain anything harmful that clogs up the pores of your scalp and kills the hair growth. We have a special hair pomade for your case and for similar cases that does wonders and is harmless and is also very pleasant to use. You should also have your hair examined microscopically to find out the real trouble of your hair. Our services are free to every one. Call at either address.

THEY DOUBLE-CROSSED CROSS
Herbert Cross, of Jamaica, stowed away on a Norwegian boat several weeks ago and lanced in Baltimore. He was ordered deported and was kept in jail until the vessel left port.

The vessel returned to Baltimore Monday, and Cross found himself again in jail to wait its departure.
CENTERS OVERCROWDED
Canning and Preserving Lessons A Schools Turn Away Applicants
Six lessons by cooking teachers under government supervision on the canning, preserving and drying of fruits and vegetables began last week. Three lectures were given, and the remaining three are to be given at Hill Street, Jefferson Street and Carsey Street Schools, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of next week. The high prices that factory canned products will reach next year led the federal government to take necessary steps to instruct housewives in conserving the food supply.
JEFFERSON STREET SCHOOL
Twenty-four housewives reported
for the demonstrations. Mrs. Sewell
the director did not understand
children also could attend, or the
number would have been much larg-
HILL STREET SCHOOL
Fifty-one women and girls sought to attend the demonstrations at this centre directed by Miss Moison. Only 24 could be accommodated.
CAREY STREET-DUNBAR SCHOOL
Both housewives and girls reported at this centre in such numbers as to make it practically certain that a second series of demonstrators will have to be arranged. Even experienced housewives found themselves helped by the new and easier methods. Miss Helena Munson is the director. It is stated that the government is willing to keep up these centres as long as there is sufficient interest shown. All housewives are urged to apply at these schools and attend the lessons.
CHILDREN'S DAY
AT PERKINS SQUARE
A Children's Day exercises conducted by the families of the church was a rather unusual feature at Perkins Square. Members of various families rendered selections from their pews. Music was furnished by the Sunday School orchestra, and the church was decorated with palm's, flowers and birds for the occasion. Rev. P. F. Litt. would invite the pastor, and Miss Rosa Fletcher, secretary.
FEWER CAMP MEDITNGS
ON EASTERN SHO
Talbot, Dorchester, Carlineham, Worcico, Somerset and Worcester counties have a regulation which makes camp meetings unlawful unless a permit, presented 15 days, before is granted. The application must be signed by 25 taxpayers residing in three miles of the proposed meeting, each of whom awaits before a motary but he is a taxpayer in good standing. Any disorder at such standing will result in refusal to grant subsequent permits to the same parties. Failure to comply with the new regulations will result in a fine of $25 to $100. Mintagers are said to have recommended the passage of this new law.

Mildred Louise Talk of Interest to Women.
As health is the first aid to beauty this story, told by Mildred Louise, beauty specialist, of Boston, Mass., is of unusual interest:
"I can recommend no better health giver than tonoline" said Mildred Louise. I was for many months, a victim of stomach trouble and nervousness, and that followed eating. Headaches would also add to my worries. Poor digestion finally brought on nervousness.
"Relief came, however, when I took the advice of several women who said 'take tonoline.'
"Not long after I started the tonoline treatment, my patrons began to remind me of the improvement in my condition. And because health is the quickest way to beauty the improvement was particularly noticeable in my face.
"What tonoline really did for me I cannot say. I am so grateful that I am willing to recommend tonoline publicly."
"Tonoline is a purely vegetable preparation which goes to the seat of common maladies—stomach and kidney trouble, catarral affections of the mucus membrane, liver ailments and impurities of the blood—and quickly improves your tonoline health, being explained to many people daily at the Read Drug and Chemical Co. Howard and Lyndhurst Sts., Balto Md.
Notice—As tononile is a wonderful flesh builder it should not be taken by any one not wishing to increase his weight ten pounds or more. Although many reports are received from those who have been benefited by tononile in severe cases of stomach trouble and nervous dyspepsia, chronic constipation, etc.

I am sending you my picture to let you enjoy your EXCELENTO Quineine
Gentlemen: we are asking you my pictures to let you see what your EXELENTO QUININE Pomade has done for my hair. It has grown to 26 inches long and is thick, and silky and I can now do my hair any way I want to. It is the best hair grower in the world. LAURA BAXES.
Don't be fooled all your life by using some fake price tag which claims to make it kinky hair. You are just fooling yourself by using it. Kinky hair cannot be made straight. You must have hair first. Now this EXELENTO QUININE POMADE is a Hair Grower which feeds the scalp and strands of hair and makes kinky hair grow long, soft and silky. It cleans dandruff and stops Falling Hair at once.
