St. Louis Without Fear Or Favor Nine Whites Killed East St. Louis, Ill., July 19.—Three inquiries into the recent race riots here were underway this week. The Grand Jury in Belleville, a military board here and a coroner's jury here were the investigating bodies. The coroner's jury, on Tuesday, ordered the arrests of Police Sergent Con Meehan, Patrolman James O'Brien and Chauffeur Albert H. Wilson, all of the local police department, charging them with being implicated in the killing of two colored men on the levee on July 3. Soldiers testified that the sergeant ordered a squad of militiamen to attack a group of brown men. The accused men declared that they were not present at the time of the shooting. SHOULD PUNISH RIUTERS In a special charge to the Grand Judge, Judge G. A. Crow urged the body to conduct its investigation of the riot without fear or favor and without regard to the standing of any person accused of participating in the riot. “There is no greater evil in the State of Illinois,” said Judge Crow, and all evidence must be thoroughly of the riot. The eyes of the State, yes, of the world are on you, and you must constantly keep your obligations as jurors and taxpayers before you. "Murder, arson and rioting," he continued, "must be suppressed, and the people of the State and country expect a fair, fearless and unbiased report from this jury. There must be no whitewashing of this affair, and anyone who feels there is someone he should be held accountable for this jury. The standing of the individual means nothing. Stand up and do your duty and act on the plan of the square deal." MORE WHITES DIE Two more died Tuesday from being shot in the back by a total of nine whites reported as having met death at the hands of the attacked Negroes. The colored death list is said to be 35. Colored men who want to leave the city must get permits from the military authorities. The militia has been accused to abduct $00 men, six companies, having been withdrawn this week.

NORTH Bethlehem Company At Sparrows Point Employing Thousands Of Colored Men GOOD WAGES PAID Bewaltimoreans, who have noted the migration of workingmen from the South to the North, suspect that just on the edge of the city many hundreds of Dixie laborers have found positions, and many hundreds more could find employment. From every Southern State but Virginia, men in neighboring state Virginia, in the far eastward have found their way into the shipbuilding firms along the city waterfront. Especially from Dundalk to Sparrows Point where the Bethlehem Steel Company has its big plant, ground is being cleared and new mills erected with the aid of the Dixie labor. The Bethlehem Steel Company is the largest employer in help on the far eastward with its officials assume that one-half of its seven thous and workingmen are colored. The waterways are lined with steel ships in various stages of construction. White men and colored men are at work side by side assembling the parts and changing pipes of steel plates and rivets into vessels containing the metal blockage. Formerly these vessels were turned out at the rate of one every six or seven weeks. Recently the shortage of shipping due to the activity of the nation in preparing for war has caused a speeding up of the program, so that now a new ship starts down the ways every four or five weeks. From iron ore to steel ships is a long step, yet every one of these phases of the work, with the exception of steel rolling is carried on at Sparrows Point. The soke ovens, furnaces, founderies and machine shops are very important links in the chain, which leads finally to the ship yards, where the vessels assume shape and are put into commission. Been used in the shipyards are typical of conditions in other shops they may be cited as an example of what share colored men have in the work. The dust begrimed engineers of the hugh movable cranes which creep over a network of track thru the yards, are mostly colored. In the punch shed, where holes are drilled in the steel sheets by machinery, most of the helpers, and some of the operators, are colored Tiggers, riveters, reamers and painters are in evidence in large numbers, and everywhere the colored, common laborer. WHY THEY CAME NORTH Interviews, with individuals and with gangs of men at work, or lying in the shade after a hearty noonday meal, disclosed the fact that very few of them are from this section of the country. One of the helpers in the store room hid himself, North with 50 other youths like himself last year. The position he held formerly paid him $15 per week, but required him to work 14 hours every day including Sunday for it. Other men, who had been earning wages from 75 cents to $1.50 per day in the resocare fields of Virginia, or "piddling around as one puts in the Cocholoma Georgia, not tired of such wages, and started North in the general movement. In the back of their heads, there might have been dissatisfaction with the social and political conditions in the south, but the chief urge that drove them to save home was higher wages. AVERAGE 27½c. PER HOUR. Ordinary workingmen in the Bethlehem Company get 25 and 27½ cents per working hour. Store skilled actors and giggers get 30, 32, 35 and even 39 cents per hour. Double time is allowed for work on Sundays and overtime pays at the rate of 1½ the usual wage. Nobody is forced to his limit. On the other hand, work proceeds in a leisurely, if business-like way. Strong men are able to make 36 hours of work each week these conditions $25 and $30 per week is no unusual wages Of course, bad weather puts a considerable crimp in the weekly envelope. BROWN HEAD OF DEPARTMENT Some of the men with the Company are Baltimoreans, and have risen to be foreman of gangs. Hewitt directs a gang of men in the Supply Department. Andrew J. Brown is another Baltimoreman, who died in a rage ago, and now head of the Riggers' Department with 15 foremen, and some 160 men under him. WILLIAM W. B. DAY, Inc. Anthracite-C O A L-Bituminous 1206 DRUID HILL AVENUE. MOTHER'S WEEK NEXT BETHEL HOLDS $5000. RALLY Congregation Headed By Pastor Brooks Has Greatest Rally In Church's History Workers Headed By John T. Williams Bring In $624,00 With an utter disregard of the inclement weather, Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church, and Hill avenue in Newark street, was the Monday night with members and their friends to witness the First Mock Conference Rally, held in the interest of the mortgage debt. Early in the evening every available room about the church was alive with "Bishops, Presiding Elders of the Various and the men of the Various "document that were busy preparing their reports for the "session" that was to be held later in the auditorium. Others who did not arrive until later had been busy scouring the town for money that had been promised. In the meantime the large document had been busy in the church was restlessly awaiting for somebody to "start something." It was nearly nine-thirty when Dr. Charles E. Stewart, the genial pastor of Ebenezer A. M. E. Church, came to the platform and announced a secrecy about the nature of humor he then introduced Rev. S. M. Johnson of Trinity to make a "few brief and broken" remarks. Dr. C. Harold Stepteau of Alien was next introduced and congratulated with the vast amount of energy they had used in the effort to accomplish the end they had in view. But the folks seemingly had come for but one thing, and that thing was that he had been raised by the effort, for they took little stock in anything up to this time. CORN POND DISTRICT FIRST As ten thirty approached, Dr W. Simpson Brooks, the pastor, entered amid generous applause and announced that Conference Bishop John T. Williams, of the Thousand Dollar Conference. The applause was deafening when the secretaries announced that the "corn pone" district, Miss Mamie E. Gregory, Presiding Elder, had raised $256 and the whole Conference the grand prize and its loyal band of rooters, for as each Bishop ascended the throne he was met with round after round of applause, which was followed by a familiar and favorite hymn of the Conference. When Bishop Williams retired he was followed by Bishops Theodore C. White of the Conference and Its loyal band of rooters, for Albert H. Peck, at the Turncott conference, $278; Edward F. Barnett, the Pupers, more than $500; Daniel W. Lee, the Nightingale, $250; Wm. E. Hamer, Rough Riders, nearly $500; Robert Sorrell, Matter-of-Fact, $280, this bishop himself raised $66; Jamaica Conference, $280; Missionary Conference, $400; George Palmer, of the Little Kids, $521, and Tindaele Copleland, of the Ethiopian, the Missionary Conference, $226. RESULTS ANNOUNCED 4 A M. so enthusiastic were the members over their accomplishment and so anxious were they to hear 'to the cent just how much had been raised that nearly five 'clock in the morning, singing applauding, sleeping and eating—for many anticipating the long watch plentifully supplied themselves with sandwiches and fruit. It was nearly four 'clock when the secretaries announced the unverified totals of FOUR THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED FIFTY-NINE DOLLARS and FIFTY SIX CENTS. Then pandemonium broke for the men who had been exercised during the ten weeks of feverish preparation and deep anxiety seemed no longer necessary, and elderly men and women noted for their sedatism joined with the more youthful spirits in vigorous reoloking. RALLY PLANNED BY PASTOR The rally was planned by the pastor, Dr. Brooks whose work at St. Louis and other places in the West had attracted the attention of the connecter, organizer, a financier and a preacher of unusual power that led Bishop J. Albert Johnson to secure him for Bethel which for several years, has been struggling under a heavy burden that was fast discouraging the heroic membership. Since coming to the city, the most phenomenal success has attended the ministry of Dr. Brooks, nearly $8,000 having been raised in less than six months, and each Sumner service bolstered by exceptionally large crowds. When seen by a reporter of the Afro American,Dr.Brooks said he was most grateful to the people of Baltimore for their kindly reception and marvellous support, and felt happy that he was being used as an instrument in the redemption of Bethel, which because of its history, was dear to the hearts of all Baltimoreans. The rally will conclude if about ten days, the members feeling quite sure that they will be able to pass the FIVE THOUSAND DOLLAR mark which they had set as their goal TEDDY ASKED TO DES MOINES BY A BALTIMORE ROOKIE Frt Des Moines, In., July 17—Col.

Their checks included the money spent as railroad fire to the fort. A very small sum of money was dissipated by the soldiers. A good many sent their money sent their money home or else opened in one of the local banks. The Wells-Doctor Company did a large money order business as did the government. The money paid by the government was sent through the Iowa National Bank. Saturday, those recommended for dismissal by the commanders of the fourteen companies appeared before the court of the major judges to show cause why such recommendation be carried out. In most cases the candidate was "paroled"; in few cases they were asked to leave. Quite a few still have their cases under consideration. DR. MOORLAND-VISITS FORT. Dr. E. Moorland, senior secretary of the national bank, a visited the fort Y. M. C. A. visited week on a tour of inspection. He arrived Sunday and spent several days in camp.

MARYLAND-DELAWARE PYTHIANS TO MEET Middletown, Del., July 20—The annual annual meeting of Virginia Grand Lodge of Knights Pythias, Eastern and Western Hemispheres, will be held here next week. TRINITY—BROWNS GROVE WEDNESDAY, JULY 25, 1917. PRICE THREE CENTS POOR SCHOOL CONDITIONS Glaring Deficiencies in the Maryland Schools are Shown by Federal Report. $6.38 A CHILD IN MD. Public and private schools for Negroes in Maryland are described in the report on "Negro Education" just issued by the U. S. Bureau of Education, Department of the Interior, Washington, and in a special abstract for the State. For each school the following information is given: Location of school; name of principal; character of work; ownership and control; attendance; teachers; financial condition. The descriptive sketch of the more important schools is followed by specific recommendation looking to the future development of the school. The facts for the individual schools were obtained by a field study of Maryland and the other Southern States covering a period of nearly three years. Besides listing the private and higher schools for Negroes in Maryland and other Southern States, this Federal report on colored schools analyses the provision for education by the States; discusses means and methods of education for Negroes; describes building and equipment for typical schools; and attempts specific aid to public and private authorities in Negro educational the problem before the colored schools of Maryland is indicated by the fact that illiterates are still 23 per cent of the colored people 10 years of age and over, and 9 per cent of the children 10 to 14 years of age. The Maryland section of the report shows that there are, according to Census figures, 223,250 colored people in Maryland, forming 51 percent of the population. It is pointed out that 29 per cent of all persons engaged in agricultural pursuits in the State are colored, and that the number of farms cultivated by Negroes increased 9 per cent between 1900 and 1910. As farmers renting and owning land, they have charge of more than three hundred and fifty thousand acres of Maryland soil, and their work as farm laborers be taken into account, they undoubtedly cultivate a much larger area. The report therefore emphasizes the special need of agricultural and industrial education. Public provision for colored and white children in Maryland is compared on the basis of the amount expended for teachers' salaries and the number of children of the public school teachers of Maryland received $2,849,540 in salaries in 1911-12", says the report. "Of this sum $2,567,021 was for the teachers of 186,147 children and $282,519 for the teachers of 44,315 colored children. On a per capita basis this is $13.79 for each white child of school age and $6.3$ for each colored child." There is a wide variation in the per capita salary. In Somerset and Anne Arundel Counties this is less than $1.60, while in-the city of Baltimore it is $15.33. Private schools for colored pupils in Maryland number 10, according to the report. They have a property valuation of $99,624, an annual income of $23,4.4 and an attendance of 1,033 pupils, of whom 942 are in elementary schools, of which 842 are in secondary schools are supported by denominations. Only one of the 10 schools may be said to play an important part in the educational activities of the State. It is pointed out that a few of the remaining schools may be justified on denominational grounds: the majority, however, are so namped, by the lack of resources, that the State receives little benefit from them. The most urgent need of the colored schools in Maryland is trained teachers. The report declare "The supply now depends largely on secondary and normal schools outside of the State. Within the State on the Baltimore Normal School, an academy offers a fair preparation. The annual output of those schools is obviously inadequate to meet the need for teachers in a State with almost 235,000 colored people and 1,000 colored public school teachers." The report summarizes the educational needs for the schools of Maryland as follows: strengthening and extension of the elementary school system. The only agencies able to supply this need are the State and counties. 2. The increase of teacher training facilities. To this end secondary schools with teacher-training courses and other educational facilities should be maintained, and the private schools should cooperate with state standards. When theention by placing more emphasis on teacher-training courses in accordance with State standards. When the central industrial schools of the counties are developed, other teacher-training schools should be added. Continued on Fourth Page. Denton, M. E. 18.—Rev. J. H. Cooper M. E.

YOU CAN HAVE LONG STRAIGHT HAIR If Anxious to Improve Your Hair and General Appearance Read This Carefully There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding on what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of properly applied Soots or a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time. It is the invention of a New York chemist and is made under the personal supervision of a licensed pharmacist of many years' experience. Quinade stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair's natural growth of long hair. It makes the hair soft, smooth and glossy, and easy to put up in the style desired. To get the best results from the use of Quinade the scalp should be shampooed at regular intervals with Seeby's Quinasop. Quinasop is a moisturizer of oil of coconut oil, principally coconut oil, and contains no animal fat of any kind. It lathers very freely and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasop leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp, unequalled by any other shampoo. It does not apply any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasop, asking for them by the full name. If your druggist or丹师 does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler. The price is 25 US dollars.

BALTIMORE, JULY 21 _—_————— LECTURES IN THE CHURCHES ‘ON FOOD CONSERVATION. ‘The public schools and the Say Norsery have been at work offering opportunitiés to 4 limited number ot women and girls to learn the newest methods of canning, drying and pre- serving of fruits und vegetubles, Buth of these agencies have done good work, and jt might be hoped that they will find « way to continue thelr tectures. and demonstrations, A much larger opportunity is being op- ened in the coming of a stute food ex- pert to establish community canning ‘clubs and to give lectures und demon- strations in the churches. ‘Altho Mrs. Shay hay only been here ‘@ week, work in four churches and with two girl's canning clubs is well under way. Every fur sighted civle organization will co-operate in mak- ing the work of this state expert as effective as possible, She is at thelr service and is only too willing to at- tend group meetings and answer ques- tions, THE FOUR FUNDAMENTALS Rey, F. J, Grimke, pastor oF ht 45th Street Presbyterian Church in ‘Washington, is noted as a speaker with couruge. ‘Two weeks go he an- nounced from his pulpit that Loyalty to the United States and the Red Cross are two topics upon which he qill-not speak. Not untt the attitude of the white people in the Red Cross ‘and in the Government changes, he $8 reported to have said, could he with "self respect speak of loyalty to the fone, or aid to the other. ‘More recently in his serles of ser- mons on “Marriage,” Rev, Grimke hag shown the samo Kind of courage. Last Sunday he told the women of his congregation that they huve got to do four things wet! in order to get along well with their husbands: 1, Good housckeep¢ng—keep the house clean. 2, Good cooking—prepare the food scientifically. 3. Good service—serve the food appetizingly. P Good sewing—xeep the hus- ‘pand’s apparel in repait; and look af- “ter his laundry. ‘here is nothing new in these four fundamentals of happy domestic lite ‘as here given. On the other hand they are surprisingly old. Had------ Xantippe performed her full duty to- ward the four fundamentals, old So- crates might have preferred wedlock to the hemlock. On the other hand Mrs, Grover Cleveland, as the wife o! a late ex-president, is said to have “made her husband thru her owr efforts as a housewite and a hostess ‘he modern tendeney is away from married life as the women of the last generation knew it. ‘The umission o the word “obey” from the ccremony is but one evidence of this, Another evidence can be seen in the numbe of married women, who xre engage’ sin gainful occupations, and who: fo: this reason eannot give time to th work of the home. Not only is thi: true of the South where one millior women are at work on tae farm 0 fas Jaundresses, but it ts trac as wel of the North, where dressmaking do mestic and factory work is open t women. ‘his tendancy is manifesting itsel ais .well among professional women <0 take, school teachers, becaus statistics are available, and because | has been possible only during the pas +year for married women to teach 4 - the District of Columbia; school ree fords show that 50 colored wome| teachers have married durins the pas year, and that only 5 of these hav given up their poitions In the school: _ Naturally these marriages are th first step toward birth control az crace suicide. ‘What is true of, women echo _ teachers in Washington 1 true ¢ women workers in the governmer epartments.

Washington. tr ee eee Oe err a points a way for making the Nexru an Industrial factor in the North and West—one whom large employers will seek to utilize permanently. ‘he big demand for Southern Ne~ groes to go North and West to work fe largely the result of the derth of labor caused by the European War, ag well as the increased demand for labor in certain industries, Whether or not the Negro can hold on permanently as an industrial factor outside of the South, as Mr. Washing- ton points out, depends largely on whether he becomes an efficient work man and a good asset of the com- munity where he has late:y cast his lot. ‘That Baltimoreans are beginning to see the necessity of looking after the welfare of the neweomers who have come here in large numbers to se- cure work within recent months, is indicated by the recent decision of the A. M. B. Ministers Meeting to initiate ‘a movement to look after the interests of the men and women who have come here from the South. It ig a gratifying fact that the plans contemplate not only looking after the moral and religious welfare of the new workers, but to have them be- come efficient and welcome members of the community. ‘That many of the newcomers are unused to their new crivironment can- ‘not be denied, but that, wita the prop- ‘er kind of training and incentive, they ean become valuable adjuncts to the communty is apparent. ‘The migrants must not only be welcomed, but they must be told of the snares that await the unsuspecting. ‘The weleame of the saloon and the gambling place must not be forthcoming before the citizens of enlightenment and breadth of mind hold out @ helping and veek- oning hand, ‘The newcomers must not only be made welcome tv the best but every’ incentive must be given hin to haprove his stock of knowledie and his eflelency as. a workman.

They will not encourage whole: sale emigration after the war if plenty of efficient labor is to be found in thi country. Care must be taken to not only show that the Negro is capable o} mastering any job, but that he is no fa cheaper workman from the stand point of wages than Is the white man ‘That will remove some of the oppo sition which white workmen manifes toward the colored worken and induc employers to give the efficient Nesw chance along with other men, Thi attainment of such means that it wi not be a strange sight to see efficion colored men employed at variou kinds of skilled labor all over th country. It will hasten the time whe! no job will be thought of as a “col ored man's job" or a “white man's job” according to the character of th work to be done. ‘The Afro-American congratulates the tempestuous sens of Negro jJour~ nalism in the days of slavery and lack of widespread educatwn among the race, it has weathered the storms sun seasty engl to be congratulated that its span of life exceeds that of freedom of the race from slavery.

AFRO-AMERICAN SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1917 THE WEEKLY SERMON By Elder G. P. Rodgers IN MEMORIAM C. & P. Phone: MADISON 2492-J BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH By Elder G. P. Rodgers Modelling With the Things of God. The Saviour, when upon the earth, spoke the words recorded by Matthew found in Chapter 5 verses 17 to 19, said. Think not that I am come to destroy THE LAW, OR THE PROPHETS: I am not come to destroy but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one title shall in no wise pass from the law till ALL be fulfilled WHOSOEVER THEREFORE SHALL BREAK ONE OF THESE LEAST COMMANDMENTS and teach men we shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven, but whosoever shall do and teach them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven." I wish to stand in the place of the one who teaches men to regard GOD's law. One who advocates the ignoring of national laws is oranded an anarchist—the one who endeavors to up the laws of the land is looked upon as a citizen worthy of respect. He wished to respect us, but cannot do so if we break heaven's law and teach men that it is all right to break it. Not a jot or title will be come till heaven and earth pass, Paul said. "Do we make void the law thru faith-God forbid, we establish the law, Rom. 3:1. Now this is the point brethren-some would pass away at Christ's first advent—but HE definitely states that HE did not come to destroy the things required of the law, forever settling it that it may be properly to show man that the Law of命令ments could be kept. Certainly HE did not come to this earth, and die the shameful death HE did, just to absolve man from a law which was holy just and good (Roms. 7:12). Again, Christ surely did not come to this earth to demonstrate to man that he need not longer keep the ten commandments. Why, man was breaking them already, sin was everywhere. Sin is the transgression of the law I John 3:4.) and it was not necessary for the Saviour to come that man might continue to ignore the law, rather. HE came to accomplish the things that man would have it appear, could not be done, and HE took upon Himself human flesh like as we have, and was tempted in all points like as we are yet he never sinned. Brethren, let me plead with you to keep all of God's ten commandments, for Christ said, If ye will enter into life keep the commandments. And the last book in the Bible holds up the keeping of the commandments Rev, 22:14, and says that they that do them have a right to the tree of life, ane will enter in thru the gates into the city.

The evening lesson was from the Book of Job and the minister had just read, "Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out," when immediately the church was in total darkness. "Brethren," said the minister with scarcely a moment's pause, "in view of the sudden and startling fulfillment of this prophecy, we will spend a few minutes in silent prayer for the elec- tricle lighting company." [Picture of a man in a suit with a bow tie]. W. Sampson Brooks, D. D. The name of W. Sampson Brooks, remarkable pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church is not to be found in the Colored "Who's Who" in America. This is the loss of the editors, and not that of Doctor Brooks. Here are some facts that show him to be one of the best organizers in the A. M. E. union In Minneapolis, Minnesota, his first charge, he built two churches, St. James and St. Peters, and paid for them. The last named church cost $11,000. In Chicago, Dr. Brooks built St. Stephens at a cost of $17,000. Successful pastorates in Des Moines, Ia., and Nashville, Tennessee occupied him until he was asked to take charge of St. Paul's church in Louis in 1912, then under an indebtedness of $14,000. After six months effort, the May 5th Rally rested St. Paul $5,000. The next May 19, 1913, the larger sum of $7541.85 was raised, and he rallies, Dr. Brooks employed the same system of Mock Conferences that he used with such success in the Baltimore rally, just closed, in which $5,000 was raised for Bethel Church. Two, features of Dr. Brook's work in Baltimore might be mentioned, which indicate that Liethel Rally was the most... successful in his career. First, he has only been in charge of the church for eleven weeks...The $5,000 Rally at St. Pauls took six months. Secondly, in addition to the $5,000 raised in the Rally, $2,500 has been taken up in public collection...a total of $7,500 for the eleven weeks. Dr. Brooks is very modest, yet most enthusiastic about what he has accomplished here. "The most important element to success was the way the people receive me here. That settles it. That is the most astounding thing in the history of my minis- WOMEN'S DEPARTMENT Have you set out your late cabbage plants as yet? If you trin them before setting them out it gives them a better start, as the leaves trimmed off would have withered and died anyhow, at the same time drawn on the resources of the plant which would have tried to sustain them. Cabbage is one of the important vegetables of our garden as the vegetables classed as important this year are the ones that can be stored for winter use. Cabbage can be buried just like you do potatoes. It can be made into sauer-kraut, and kept until spring, and if you do not use it all until then you can what is left. Sauer-kraut is easily made from late cabbage in the late fall, if your cabbage has fully matured. If you are bothered with cabbage worms get rid of them by using shot-shot, which can be bought from your drugrist in powder form, and comes in handy boxes with perforated top, and should be applied once a week or oftener if they prove troublesome, you can also purchase it at most all seed stores. --- The following recipes have been contributed by Mr. Storer S.

After thinking awhile, the good Doctor added, "I must mention too the spirit of harmony that prevails. The get-to-gether, spirit is evident everywhere, and memoirs of all denominations loyalty helped. I have never seen anything like it. Our eyes are ahead. We will do even bigger things next year." WHO NAMED IT? "Time and again," said D. N. Tate, have I seen beautiful Niagara Falls, and to my delight viewed the majestic caternets, as they gracefully flow over the banks into the great gorge below—the Horseshoe, the American and the Bridalveil falls present a magnificent view, especially from the Canadian side. The Bridalveil is named in conformity with the volume of its waters. Who was it that was so thotful as to select such a name? Was it a promising youth, who anteplated embarking on the sea of Matrimony? Or was it a clever woman who already enjoyed the matrimonial breezes? Certainly here is one reason why Niagara continues to be America's foremost resort for Honeymooners." That Second Training Camp No Baltimore is more anxious for a second Training Camp for Colored Officers like the one at Des Moines than J. Charence Chambers. He reasons by analogy like this: reasons. "Approximately 50,000 white officers are being trained in the first series of camps, and 25,000 are to enter the second camps beginning July 27th. Of this number at least 50,000 officers will survive and enter the army. Only 1,000 colored officers are being trained in Des Moines. The ratio of officers is therefore 1 to 50. The newspapers report that colored men will be drafted for the rank and file per ratio of population, that is, 1 to 10 or 12. Why should the proportion of officers be so small and the proportion of men be so large? These figures are not necessarily accurate but they are suggestive." Vice President Calls St. Louis Post-Mortem "This Committee reminds me of a Committee that appeared before me when I was, Governor of Indiana," said Vice President Marshall to the men and women, who came in his office in the Senate Building last Thursday morning to protest against the St. Louis outrage. "Very much perturbed, this Committee wanted o know why I had allowed a particularly vicious prize fight to go on in the state the night before. I had not known of the fight, and so I said to them. 'Why didn't you come before. You say there was a prize fight in this state? I did not know a thing about it. The only thing is to go to the Grand Jury and get an indictment. We can't stop the fight now, we can only punish the offenders.' "The same thing is true of the E. St. Louis affair. This is a post mortem. There is no way to bring back the lives of those killed in the riot. It does no good to criticise the authorities. You don't stop these things until you get an executive, who says they are going to stop, and take steps in time." "Dere's no rain to wet you. Dere's no sun to burn you. O push along, believer, I want to go home." Popular Boston Lady Says Tonoline Has Proven a Godsend to Her. It is always interesting to listen to the statements of our friends, and especially when you know they are sincere and honest in what they say. Added interest is created when a statement coming from one who has spent a lifetime in Boston, where she is well known socially. Such a person is Annie Stewart who resides in Boston, and is possessed of the respect and confidence of her associates and is willing for anyone to call on her to verify the following signed testimonial. "I have suffered from stomach trouble for the past seven years. It took the form of indigestion and dyspepsia. I had dizzy spells and headaches, and after I ate a little food it would ferment and cause gas to form in my stomach. I had plans all over my body, and was chronically constituted. My liver was torpid, and I felt generally miserable. I had doctored and been sent to the hospital, but received no permanent relief. I was so nervous and restless that at night I could scarcely sleep. The gas pressing under my heart caused palpation and when I rose in the morning I was just as tired as when I retired. About two weeks ago I began to take tonoline, and I can truthfully state that it has done wonders in my case. I am feeling like a new woman and can sat any kind of food. I sleep the night through and have no more pain! in fact it has tainted and I am recommending it to all of my friends, as it has been a Godsend to me." Reid Drug and Chemical Company sells and guarantees toneline. There are numerous symptoms of this trouble that tonoline can relieve. In fact, any of the following may denote affections of the stomach: Indigestion, dyspepsia, belching of wind, bad breath, sick throbbing headache, poor circulation, night sweats, that tired feeling, costiness, contended tongue or a por complexion. Caution—As tonoline is recommended as a flesh builder those not wishing to increase their weight fifteen pounds or more should not take it continuously.

Hill Street and 826 Druid Hill Avenue BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE NECRO Copyright, 1917 by J. E. Ormes. Instructor Commercial Dept. Wilberforce University, Wilberforce, O. The ice-cream business is a field aftering splendid opportunities to degrees, for the following reasons: 1. It is peculiarly local, and there- may be ventured into with rela- tively small capital. 2. It offers quick returns, and freg- ture turnovers with large margins credit. 3—It is one of the types of business, which, because of prejudice enjoy a monopoly of the Negro ice cream trade of a community, and yet, should be a Negro product, which sells need not be entrusted to Negroes, but he may enjoy trade among whites as well. 4—Climatic conditions make it exceptionally desirable in the South, because of the long season it may enjoy. 5—It may be developed in several ways, i.e., by building up family and social function trade, or by adding side-lines such as confections, fruits, ciders, soft drinks and soda-fountain, or by emphasizing the manufacturing side of the business. SMALL CAPITAL REQUIRED As stated in the nature of business makes it relatively small business in a necessary From $300 to $3,600 appears to be sufficient to equip and operate a small manufacturing-retail ice-cream business. The amount of capital needed, of course, depends entirely upon the size of the business, whether it is to be started on a large or small scale. PHASES OF THE BUSINESS There are three phases of the business. First, the purely retail ice-cream business, in which retail beds are made at retail prices, and results. This is not a profitable phase of the enterprise unless conducted in conjunction, say, with a drug-store having a soda-fountain, or a confectionery or bake business. The reason is that the manufacturer must make a profit, which the dealer loses. The second phase of the business is the purely manufacturing end. This is usually carried out in an organized departmental plan or a treasury business. In this phase of the business, the aim is to seize the retailer, to families, social functions, restaurants and hotels. The necessary capital to enter this phase of the busi- COMMON SENSE HEALTH TALKS We hear much these days concerning food economy and, from governmental sources, much instruction and advice are being disseminated the the way we waste food. To this end, Mr. Herbert C. Hoover, Food Commissioner of Federal Government, has invoked the cooperation of Baldwin preachers for the purpose of emphasizing to their congregations certain details, the importance of materially to regulate the wasteful habit of the American people. The gist of the advice given so far is against preparing more food than necessary for one meat and thus reduce the garbage waste. But there is another side of this question which, I think, is of vita importance and that is the kind of L. I one should eat, adding to the variety of all classes, with a number of all classes, comparative few people know the relative mer of the foodstuffs they buy. The hall of what most people eat is chosen for its agreeable taste, most of which is either indigestible or possesses very little nutritive value. They either eat too much of the proper things or not enough of them. The food we eat require to build up. The food we eat requires the body die so rapidly that one may safely say that "we die to live." This rapid death is so essential that anything which hinders it is harmful to the body. Every action every movement of the bony, every thought is accomplished at the sacri, of some of the cells of the body, which must be restored by the blood. In the bloo. The heat and energy of the body must also be kept up by the food we eat. w it is essential that our foods be so carefully selected that our b is will get their full nourishment every day. FOODS OF ER LITTLE VALUE Cabbage, spinach, lettuce, eggplant, tomato, cucumbers, greens, asparagus, Mint food values. To be nourished by a am al of cabbage one must eat about eight heads at one time. Tomatoes, like watermelon and eggplant, are almost all water. Celery, so popular as a side dish, has a little more food value than a tooth picks. Let us get to the point, and get money out daily for these things. THE GREALS. The most important of the vegetable foods at our disposal are the cereals; but comparatively few people like them. Barley, buckwheat, corn, oats, rice, rye, wheat may be mentioned. Five cents worth of oatmeats has more nourishment than fifteen cents, which Rice parsniply eaten and so cheap, is several times more valuable as a food than white or sweet potatoes. It can be substituted for potatoes, beets, parsnips and turnips with great benefit to the consumer. Freer use, of oatmeats only rests on the ooze's exertion, particularly where there are children, but will be found to be more valuable as a nourishment. I do not wish to be understood as condemning potatoes, parsnips and turnips. I simply wish to point out that they rank second in value to the cereals. FRUITS Fruits are used chiefly to give variety to diet. As nutrients they are poor because they are mostly MMF METS LYCE POWDERS FRUITS ness is perhaps too great for the Negro. The third phase is a combination of the first two, in which the ice-cream is manufactured and retailed by the same person. It is this phase of the manufacturing that enables voting, and into which Negroes are advised to go. It requires the least capital outlay, and will prove the most profitable to a man new to the business. REQUIPMENT The necessary equipment in the manufacturing-retail business is first, the freezing and storing machinery and equipment. Several methods of freezing the business's delivery seems to be most popular, but the machinery for this method is costly. Perhaps the best method for a small producer is the old-rushed salt and ice freezing with the vertical freezer, operated by a motor. Production of cream provided for, the problem then remains to equip the "parlor or rec room" of the business. Delivery equipment may be necessary as the business expands. MANUFACTURING ONE'S OWN CREAM With freezing and storing equipment, one is able not only to make his own cream and take the manufacturer's profit as well as the retailer's profit, but he is able to put a part of the manufacturer's profits thus saved into raising the QUALITY of his cream. And, if there be anything that sells ice-cream, it is QUALITY. If you want to sell your own cream-BEST—the best in town—and you'll have no trouble selling it, even at an advanced price. To illustrate this, a Negro man in a nearby town, who was, ten years ago, waiting table in a railroad lunchroom, is now and has been for ten years or more, in the ice-cream business, that it is common to hear at a social function, the remark, "I hope they have——'s ice-cream." He has so built up the quality and reputation of his cream that people DEMAND it, regardless of his color. So great is his reputation, the price of his cream to $1.25 per gallon, and yet the people continue to buy it—they prefer it. And most of his customers are white people. Ten years ago a lunchroom waiter, this man today is owner of his own restaurant, in addition a farm and other real-estate, and is a leading man in his community. Again, the injunction may repeated, Make Your Own Cream--and MAKE IT THE BEST. (Part I ends here.) Next Week will appear Part II. water. Bananas are the most nourishing; but, varying as they do in kind, they also vary in digestion. The chief substance of merit in fruits is sugar. **NUTS** Nuts are the most nourishing than fruits because of the fat and protein which they contain, Peanuts, the cheapest, is nourishing but too much of them or of other nuts will stir babel in the sauce. **SUGARS** Sugars are among the most valuable foods we have. They not only nourish but are a source of heat and muscular energy when digested. Their pleasant taste makes them popular. They are fattening. People who work in sugar cane fields are usually at work in a body-weight. Sugars and starches are identical in merit as food substances. ANIMAL FOODS This includes meats, nish, eggs, oysters, poultry, etc., all of which are valuable foods. They may be boiled, stewed, roasted or fried. Fish is particularly necessary to the diet of people who do much brain work. While meats are essential to build the waste tissue and should be used by people who do much brain work, we should eat too much meat. Colored people as a rule eat too much meat. Inasmuch as many people suffer from a form of constipation which they are not aware of, the absorption from the bowels of lingering meat refuse leads to diuresis, chief among which are may thus be accounted for in some people. But to think that a man must eat meat to be strong or fat is false. No man is as strong as a horse or as fat as a pig. And yet the horse is a vegetarian absolutely and pigs are seldom fed with desi- While this is the most complete of all animal foods, it is more suitable for babies growing infants and young animals than the adults, because it contains more fat, and proteins, than it does starch, nees milk, milk, or lightened milk. In water. In the market, the amount of water in milk depends upon circumstances, and the conscience of the dealer. The chief sufferer from adulterated milk is: the child who shows signs of malnutrition. Kids can be treated for inability to walk, etc.) is the most milk is a; very poor substitute for fresh milk for nursing children (1) because babies can not digest it so well (2) because it leads to gastro-intestinal disorders and rickets. In the baby teaplontion to a bottle of water—it is worse than useless. The best milk for a child is its mother's or a wheat nurse's. Cow's milk, or better, still, ass's milk, which is next to mother's milk, is intended for the young of the animals, not for human babies. Every healthy mother should nurse her baby. Cream, cheese and butter, products of milk, are nutritious foods. The first two may cause indigestion if too much of them is eaten at one time. Rotten cheese may cause so-called tomin poisoning. Butter with bread simple as the combination is, is a substantial meal, because it contains glutamic acid (glutamate), which goes to make lost tissue) and fat. But Continued on Page 4. NUTS SUGARS Citizens Study Emigration A Committee appointed to represent the A. M. E. Preacher's Meeting in a study of the Emigration Problem and to assist the emigrants in their new lines of adventure, has appointed as follows: G. P. Bengtsoe, Executive Director, housing conditions; Rev. A. L. Gaines, New Business Enterprises; Rev. D. G. Hill, the Churches of Baltimore and immediate vicinity; Rev. M. J. Murphy, Sr., the Firms of Baltimore and vicinity; and Charles E. Stewart, Monies and Cash; and E. Stewart, Monies and Cash, make a special of his subject in the interest of our Negro emigrants so from this committee any information the emigrant may wish, may be obtained Prominent Odd Fellows in Town Mr. Julius C. Johnson, national deputy grand master of the Odd Fellows, who is improving after a long illness, has been visited by the following nine mission members: W. David Brown, New York, national grand treasurer; Henry P. Slaughter, Washington, editor of the "Odd Fellows" Journal; Dr. I. L. Roberts, Boston; James H. Johnson, Lehigh, N. C.; James H. Johnson, Atlanta; A. T. Shirley, W. Virginia; G. W. Mays and J. L. Larocca, both of Jacksonville, Fla. Mr. Johnson was to have to accommodate the visitors to the farm of Grand Master Edward H. Johnson, of the semi-annual session of the Sub-committee of Management of the Order in Philadelphia last week. Magistrate Shore of the Northwestern District is busy these days with the violators of the city ordinance governing disposal of garbage by housekeepers. Offenders who were brought before him last week were merely warned that the next time they failed to have a galvanized iron can, provided with a metal lid, they would be kept in place except when putting garbage in or taking it out, they would be bled $1, $2, or $3 and costs. "In these days," said the magistrate, "is is hard enough to find money for bread and meat, and you people have no money to be wasting in paying fines. This law works a hardship. But, it is a city ordinance, and the city officials are determined that it be obeyed. Law enforcement is up to it. There is no other ordinance on the books, that is giving the police so much trouble as this one. For you housekeepers, I can only say this word: Follow up the garbage man, and keep your eye on the garbage can." Something over one thousand dollars is being used to repair necessary repairs and alterations in the Y. W. C. A. Building, corner Drud Hill and Dolphin street. The house is being wired for electricity, and new floors laid in every room. The laundry and kitchen will be placed in the basement, so that the whole first floor can be made into a large assembly room. Partitions will be added to second floor us to give more rooms for dormitory purposes. Oliver J. Caulk is doing the painting, Crowner is doing the carpentry and building, and a white plumber is installing the stationary tubs with the necessary piping in the basement. Sunday meetings are being held at Grace Presbyterian Church temporarily. The city is buying sheet asphalt on the western end of Hoffman street. The congregation of St. John's A. M. E. Church is getting ready to install electric lights. The Grand Pasture of the Order of Nazarets held an extra session Tuesday night to consider unfinished business from the June meeting. Owing to financial difficulties the property of Wayman Memorial A. M. E. Church, Carroll street, has been advertised for sale. The pastor, Rev. J. W. Armstrong, hopes to make a satisfactory adjustment of matters. William Cook, for the past ten years second waiter at the City Vista Spring Hotel, was in the city Tuesday. "Cap" Cook says there are 13 waiters at the hotel, and more are needed. He took ten men with him on the Blue Mountain Express. PERSONALS Mr. William E.

Longevity Medical Co., Baltimore, Md. 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.*During those years, I went to hospital and tried about 30 doctors without relief. The disease never checked. My son took me to Dr. Compbell, the specialist, 1369 N. Carver street, more. Mr. Compbell, me seven months later. If anyone, happens to suffer with such awful skin disease, go to Dr. Compbell, who, I believe, can cure anything a person was not born with, and he is, to my mind, the best doctor in the world. MRS.
