AGAIN THEY ANSWER THEIR COUNTRY'S CALL SUPREME COURT DECLARES SEGREGATION VOID. TO RAISE TWO MILLION FOR SOLDIER BOYS WITH THE BOYS AT CAMP MEADE A Peep At The New Life Into Which the 60,000 Men There Have Been Issued HOW THE CAMP LOOKS Immense Buildings, Modern Quartets, Vast Food Supplies, Drill Ground and Y. M. C. A. Homes What does it look like down there? How big a-place is it? What do the soldiers look like?—These are some of the questions fired at most anyone who announces that they have visited that vast cantonment at Camp Meade, which Uncle Sam has built for the training of a part of the recently armed army. A camp is in the minds of many a large number of tents somewhere in the wilderness, where soldiers live, and watch over one another o' nights. But the Camps sue them. Upton, Grant, and others are more tents, or mere gatherer-places for soldiers, but a vast group of hardly, but well constructed frame buildings, that reminds one of a giant village, near some big city. Camp Mendel is a home about 40 times as big as Drud Hill Park, nearly as large as Baltimore city itself, measuring five miles from end to end, and is now inhabited by 60,000 of the finest specimens of physical manhood, black and white of the southern parts of United States. At the end of the camp nearest the railroad is located the Camp Moade laundry a hugh structure larger than any single plant in the city of Baltimore, in which are employed hundreds of colorful garments. 12. A half mile farther on is the Camp proper, and the colored soldier's barracks. least of the reporters was only of about three hours duration so that we could only cover the part of the camp occupied by the colored contingent. The day was a beautiful one and an amazing glistened trail and desolate windows of the men's quarters, and the soft sand of the camp ground gave easily to our every step. Tragedy on our part was witnessed numerously, hot印 prints of the soldiers' boots, which served as a sort of guide to the place we wanted so much to sec. Our first interesting glimpse of camp life was a group of what appeared to be four laborers in damp and overalls, who looked as though they had pounced on some of the regular soldiers, and relieved them of their hats and shoes, for they were the only things we wore that reminded that was explained to us by the fact that until their regular army forms arrive the selective surfaces will wear nothing. These same overalls that shakl colored hats, hoiballins, the latter two being the only part of their regular equipment that has been given them. The day (Wednesday) being one of the days when the men have holiday, there was little doing in the line of work save a little cleaning up of the dirt streets here and majority of the men were about playing baseball, pitching horshoes, playing cards, and checkers, hasking in the bright sunshine or amusing themselves on the plane and graphophone up at the Y. The soldier's program for the day is as follows: 6.15 first call; 6.30 revelie; 6.45 mess; 6.55 mess; 6.65 mess; 6.75 mess; 6.85 mess; 6.95 mess; 7.10 mess; 7.15 mess; 7.20 mess; 7.25 mess; 7.30 rest at 5, stags, 10,000. The soldiers' barnacles are models of neatness and cleanliness, have two blankets and a comfortable bed, and comfortable beds and plenty of ventilation. Steam heat in some places, and furnaces in others. Shower baths, and sanitary toilet rooms. Plenty of good food, well cooked, and ample outdoor recreation. The 36 colored officers at the camp are located in separate burracks, 24 to a burrack, with their own private rooms, messrooms, baths, and hallways; they pay for their food and all of course want in the culinary line. They employ their own chef, and naturally see that he prepares the dishes to their liking or else. TWO REGIMENTS At present there are two regiments of colonists are composing nearly 6000 in all, and 36 companies; 15 of infantry and 15 of artillery. The infantry is commanded by colored officers, while the artillery is under the direction of white officers. The majority of the captains of the companies are men of the regular 6000 of whom have had from 15 to 20 years experience in the service, while the lieutenants are men from the training camp at Fort Des Moines. Our wandering brought us upon some of our personal friends, many of whom were members of with their lot, while others complained of their being "forced" into the "thing," but who expressed a willingness and determination to do all to make their regiment as their Colonel had predicted, "the boy in the camp." The colonists, who found themselves placed in a position of trust, one which involves the training and the shaping of the forty or fifty odd men under them seemed not at all unplussed by their almost onerous Continued on Page 4 Robt.

"The authority of the State to pass laws in the exercise of the police power, having for their object the promotion of the public health, safety and welfare is very broad as has been affirmed in numerous and critical cases. Furthermore, exercise of this power, embracing nearly all legislation of a local character is not to be interfered with by the courts where it is within the scope Above a picture of the Shaw Memorial, the most beautiful ornament to Bosten Common. It represents Col. TO GET NEW 24-ROOM SCHOOL BUILDING After years of overcrowding and agitating, the colored citizens of Northwest Baltimore are to have a new school building. The tax levy for 1918 will contain a provision carrying an appropriation for a 24-room building. The colored population of that section of the city has increased greatly since the first colored school was erected for that vicinity at Carnegie Hall in 1889. This building soon became insufficient to hold the pupils, and one at Carey and School streets was built. The attendance there became so large that Carey Calhoun and Carey Street was secured as an annex. Quarters at Pennsylvania and Fremont avenues were secured and portable structures were erected in the yard of the Carey street school in an effort to conquer the concession. Just before he retired from the City Council in 1915, Councilman A. C. Binswanger went before Mayor George C. Cotton and explained his position. He promised that he would try to remedy conditions. Mr. Binswanger also headed a large delegation of colored citizens who went before the Senate to build a building. Daniel Joseph, the present councilman from the 14th Ward also manifested an interest. MARYLAND BOYS AT McCLELLAN Camp McClellan, Ala., Nov. 8—The First Separate Company of Baltimore is here, but its old friends would hardly recognize the new name given to the old infantrymen from Maryland. The company arrived in Pittsburgh, where they were guarding an armada, several months on, before the last week. They were changed immediately from the infantry to the heavy artillery and their name changed to the Horse Section of 104 United States Ammunition Train. No more these troops have to walk, horses having been provided to man. The troopers have the first-colored men to arrive, and have been given very courtesy. The Sunday before they left Pittsburgh, services were held in a number of churches for the men. Rev. Dr. W. A. Creditt, of Downingtown, Pa, who has two nephews in the Company, preached a special service to the men at the Baptist Church. Both white and colored people around the church turned out when the men obtained for the South, waving them fond farewell. the first colored regiment sent to the the belief of army officers that the col- of legislative authority and the means adopted reasonably tend to accomplish a lawful purpose. But it is equally well established that the police power, broad as it is, cannot justify the passions counter to the limitations of the Federal Constitution. "The Federal Constitution and laws passed within its authority are by the express terms of that instrument made by the Fourteenth Amendment protects life, liberty, and property from invasion by the states without due process of law. Property is more than the mere thing which a person owns, the purchase of, or the right to require, use, and dispose of it. The Constitution protects these essential attributes of property. "The concrete question here is: May the occupier and, necessarily, the purchaser, possess the property of which occupancy is an incident, be inhibited by the states, or by one of its municipalities, solely because of the color of the proposed occupant of the premises? that one may dispose of his property if lawful enacts curtailing that right in the public interest, must be conceded. The question now presented makes it pertinent to enquire into the constitutional right of the white man, having in view the legal status of the purchaser and occupant. "Following the Civil War certain amendments to the Federal Constitution were adopted, when have become an integral part of that instrument, equally binding upon all the states and which all are bound to respect. The Thirteenth Amendment abolished slavery in the United States and in all places subject to their jurisdiction, and gave Congress power to enforce the Amendment by appropriate legislation, to make all persons born or naturalized in the United States, citizens of the United States and of the states in the states in which they reside, and provided that no state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the rights of the United States and that no state shall deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, nor deny to any person the equal protection of the laws. That there exists a serious and difficult problem arising from a feeling of race, hostility, and powerless to control, and to which it must give a measure of consideration, ored men who are now joining the forfathers in the war for freedom. may be freely admitted. But its solution cannot be promoted by depriving citizens of their constitutional rights and privileges. As we have seen, this court has held that the races on the basis of equal accommodations in public conveyances, and courts of high authority have held enactments lawful which provide for separation in the public schools of white and colored pupils where equal rights are secured for the rights secured by the Fourteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution such legislation must have its limitations, and cannot be sustained where the exercise of authority exceeds the restraints of the Constitution. We have therefore succeeded in laws and ordinances of the character now before us. "It is the purpose of such enactments, and, it is frankly avowed it will be their ultimate effect, to require by law, at least in residential districts, of the restraints of separation or the races on account of race, and it is said to be essential to the maintenance of the purity of the races, although it is to be noted in the ordin- continued on Page 4 BURRELL TO STAND PAT Charged With Violating Segregation Ordinance Less than 48 hours after the United States Supreme Court announced its decision invalidating segregation laws, Sidney Burrell appeared before Justice Tormellan, of the Southwestern Circuit, for his morning, to answer to a charge of violating Baltimore's segregation law. Burrell moved from 501 N. Mount street to 1615 W. Lexington street several weeks ago. A white man living next door, complained against him, and was arrested for trespassing rest. His lawyer contended that the 1600 block, which has five colored families living therein, extended from Gilmor to Mount street, and the segregation law was not applicable thereto. Justice Tormellan ruled that Burrell had moved into that part of Gilmor to Mount street, and Gilmor streets, and released him for the action of the Grand Jury. Mrs. Dickerson has lived at 1629 W. Lexington street for nearly thirty years and the block is regarded as a mixed one. Burrell says he is going to stand pat and let the courts decide the question. PRICE THREE CENTS of their race.

At a largely attended service under the auspices of the *Principal's Association* at Sharp Street Memorial M. E. Church last Sunday evening, the need of entering children in school as soon as they can be seen in *regular* and informal attendance, was urged very impressively and convincingly. Mr. Harry T. Pratt, president of the association, presided and opened the services with a forceful appeal to the people to see that the boys and girls in the schools of today get all the training, all the intelligence, all the character and all the skill possible for the new world now opening up as a result of the world war, and the new opportunities and duties bound to follow. He showed in an impressive way how the times have brought trained men and trained women to a larger extent than before in India, how the Government is seeking to get into its service trained, efficient and capable minds. Mr. Wm. H. Lee, principal of School No. 103, made the main address. He made a vigorous analysis of the situation in the colored public schools with respect to attendance, regularity and punctuality, and pointed out what needs to be done to put them on a par with the white schools in efficiency. He urged the people to be constantly aware of the needs of public education and assented them that the only royal road to self respect and success is the road of purposeful thought and persistent endeavor. The closing remarks were made by the Rev. M. J. Naylor, pastor of the church. Mr. George B. Murphy, principal of School No. 112, read the scripture lesson, selecting the chapter in St. Matthews about the husbandmen and the vineyard. The chair, under the direction of Mrs. Annie Hazelton Lee, rendered special music. It is the intention of the Principal's Association to hold such services in every part of the city where they can cooperatoration from pastors. So far as they are interested in the task of informing the people as to their educational interests, duties and needs. Last Sunday's meeting gave abundant evidence that the people are sympathetic and will respond nobly. J. ISAAC SMALLWOOD Mr. J. Isaac Smallwood, of 1347 Arvie Avenue, died Tuesday morning at 1:30 a. m. Mr. Smallwood was well known for his sterling qualities and was loved by all who knew him. The numerous and beautiful floral tributes testified to the regard in which he was held. A number of resolutions were read. He was buried on Friday, October 26th, from Metropolitan M. E. Church. The officiating ministers were his pastors. Rev. I. W. S. Thomas, Rev. J. A. Holmes and Rev. Sampson Brooks, of Bethel A. M. E. Church. Interment was in Mt. Auburn Cemetery. Mrs. Julius Freeman, director of Hospital Supplies of the Baltimore Chapter of the American National Red Cross, has authorized Dr. W. T. Carr to form a colored branch of the Baltimore Chapter. Dr. Carr has requested Mrs. Margaret S. Hawkins, Rev. Ernest Lyon, Mrs. Manie P. Thomas and Mrs. S. C. Fernandis to act as a committee to form the organization. OUR GREATEST ENTERPRISE The Y. M. C. A. workers and members are jubilant over the progress made towards the erection of the new $100,000, building, the most modern structure under the supervision of our department. The building will be located at 1615-17-19 Drudu Hill avenue. A site $55,100 feet in fee simple. The building will be four stories high with a basement and equipped in every way for Y. M. C. A. work. The plans have been completed and as soon as the old houses have been razed, ground will be broken for the new building. The members and friends of the association have been anxious to see something done and been sure of the steps. The need of this building is unquestioned—It will have the only gymnasium, running track, swimming pool and other club facilities in the city for colored men and boys. Did you make a pledge to the building fund in 1912-14-15? Have you paid in full? Now, is the time to come across and make good your promise. A committee of one hundred men, women and boys have been selected to launch the final collection campaign. The campaign will commence November 15, with a dutch lunch served at Pythian Castle at which time Mr. J. E. Moorland, the senior secretary of the colored department will make the address of the evening. The committee of oath-bearers of the library Trutt and the organization is divided into eight divisions of 12 persons each. The names of the official collectors will be given on a folder later. The ceremony for ground breaking has been perfected and every member of the association is urged to rally to the colors in this our last big drive for funds. It is hoped that members who have not renewed their membership for this year will do so now because the association will be more can have the best association and the largest association in the country. We owe it to our young men and boys. NOW IS THE TIME TO GIVE THEM A CHANCE. TOWSON NEWS Towson, Md., Nov. 2 —Mrs. Rosa Scott. of Petersburg, Va., is the guest of her daughter.

L. Tucker who resides at Towson, Md. When I saw him placing the corn in the car I did not know who he was and concluded he was some one taking that which did not belong to him, and upon reaching Towson I so informed the constable who went to the scene and made the arrest. Excepting the foregoing I had no further interest in the case. I did not appear at the hearing neither were there any charries preferred against Mr. Tucker by Mr. Frank Augusts as stated in the "Sunday Sun" of November 4th. Therefore for the benefit of himself and his many friends, I earnestly and willfully make this apology. REV. COLUMBUS W. SIDES. Towson, Md.

Monday was the first drill day of the 600 men, who all week have kept at the learning of squad and company formations and taking long hikes in order to get accustomed to marching in step and at proper intervals. While marching the new recruits pay particular attention to instructions, but as soon as they are given a rest, the strains of "When Sickness Overtakes You" peal out from the various groups. This is the favorite song of the Baltimore recruits, not only because it gives room for some "Close harmonizing," but because of the sentiment which reminds them of someone waiting to greet them in home, sweet home. Harmonizing the is not the chief thing down at the camp. The boys are taking to drilling like ducks to water. They are attracting attention both by their general cheerfulness, and by their rapid absorption of the rudiments of military training. The new officers, as well as the men have come in for marked attention. They have made a good impression, and the total absence of any discourtesy between the whites and these Des Moines officers is noticeable. These officers are receiving the same courtesies in the matter of salutes as other officers, and are punctilious in returning them. Taken altogether it seems as if Camp Meade is going to prove a model for all of the other cantonments. The following national Guard Units are now in the service of the United States and are officed exclusively by colored officers: cobert First separate Connecticut company, 90 men, one officer; first separate District of Columbia battalion, 598 men, 11 o.cers; Eighth Illinois regiment, 1956 men, 78 officers; first separate Maryland company, 150 men, three officers; Fifthteen New York infantry regiment, 2053 men, 54 officers; Ohio ninth separate battalion, 1532 men, 48 officers; first separate Tennessee company, 112 men, three officers; first separate Massachusetts company, 150 men, three officers. Total 6641 men, 301 officers. With the 106 captains, 320 first lieutenants and 190 second lieutenants recently graduated from Fort Des Moines, the grand total of officers now in the service is $26. At least 1200 officers will be needed to take charge of the first contingent of colored drafted men, which means that 400 or more of the officers in command of colored drafted men will be white. The second training camp open only to qualified drafted men already at the cantonments may be expected to add to the number of colored officers. At any rate before the war is over there will surely be enough likely men to find a brigadier General and several colonels among them. SEGREGATIONAL ORDINANCE ILLEGAL The joy in Bunkville when home run Casey came to bat in the final inning of a famous game with the bases loaded, is nothing compared with the rejoicing in Baltimore, Richmond, St. Louis and several other Southern towns over the outcome of the Louisville Segregation decision handed down by the Supreme Court last Tuesday. Once before when the hopes of many fair minded people had expected that the city segregation law would be given its death blow by the highest court of the land, the Supreme Court threw out the case on a technicality. But this time it was different. The good work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People supported by popular contributions has borne fruit. Moorefield Storey, white, president of the association, who gave his services without payment, avoided the mistakes of his predecessor, and in his splendid fight before the Court, set forth arguments on this case which will stand as long as human rights are in jeopardy. By a unamous vote the Supreme Court declared the Louisville Segregation Ordinance and incidently like ordinances in several other cities unconstitutional. Such joy as this decision brings however is not unrestrained. Justice Day's opinion in 1917, to the effect that colored men can not legally be deprived of their constitutional rights and privileges, is a great step forward from the Dred Scott decision of Chief Justice Taney in 1856, to the effect that the Negro had no rights that the white man is bound to respect. Between these two dates lie the civil war and the amendments to the constitution making the colored man a citizen of the republic. Between these two dates, too, the Negro has made unprecedented mental moral, spiritual, and material strides toward measuring up to the requirement of American citizenship. That such an act as the Louisville Segregation Ordinance could come before the Supreme Court for adjudication, indicates the reaction that has sprung up in some quarters of the country against the spirit of the men who wrote and adopted the 14th amendment. The spirit of the people who oppose the removal of Morgan College to Lauraville, and the attitude of the people who kept the 'Y. M. C. A. from utilizing its property, purchased on Dolphin street are facts which we in Baltimore will have to face the rest of this year as well as last year. In handing down his decision, Mr. Justice Day took account of the feeling of hostility between the races, which the law is powerless to control, but which nevertheless must be recoined with. He admitted that this feeling had been taken into consideration by the Supreme Court previously in passing upon the constitution- ality of the Jim Crow Car law. The court felt that residential segregation laws went "a little too far," and exceeded the retraints of the constitution. This is something. Atlanta, Georgia's dream of a park thru the city separating white and colored citizens, as well as Baltimore's more modest ordinance maintaining the status, quo with one blow become dead letters. Not that the deeree of the court means the depopulation of Northwest Baltimore, of the colored sections of Nashville, Louisville and the other cities, and wholesale influx into the residential sections previously closed to him. To the contrary, colored people like Germans, Jews and other nationalities are going to prefer to live for the most part together in one section or in several sections of cities. It does mean that colored folk will not be restricted to these sections, that they may hold property where they please, and live in any property that they own. This opinion of the unconstitutionality of the Segregation laws let us repeat is something. Let us hope it is but the forerunner of the future decree which shall declare all discrimination between citizens as contrary to the principles of a free democracy as set down in our constitutions and its amendments. LETS GO SLOW It is said the "all things comes to him who waits." This may be true, but very many times they will come much sooner if one goes after them. That the segregation law was unconstitutional was patent to every right thinking man; but it was inaugurated for a purpose, and those who inaugurated cared nothing at all about either constitutions or law, and frankly stated so at the time the law was passed. When questioned as to the constitutionality of the law, the author replied: "The colored people will never put up a fight against it, and if they do it will be a law until it goes through the courts and that will be a long time." All this was, to a certain extent true, but when the mater finally reached a man who had the fight in him it went to the court of last resort. It has been stated in the newspapers that the author of the present city law will try his hand at it again. Well, there are persons who never know when they have enough, but irasmuch as the highest tribunal in the land has passed upon it we are not very much concerned as to what he will do. Like the segregation law, all discriminating laws must eventually be wiped off the statue books of the Southern states. The United States is in a war for DEMOCRACY, and it ill becomes the government to go to Europe to establish democracy for peoples over the seas when there is no democracy at home. Democracy, like charity, ought to begin at home. And now here let us utter a word of warning. We are too prone to rush head over head into conclusions. We like many other people sometimes take liberty for license. To rush headlong into white neighborhoods, simply for the sake of getting back at the white folks is not good policy. There will be both white and colored unscrupulous real estate dealers who will endeavor to rush us into trouble of all kinds, for which they care nothing so long as they get the result of their sales. That we need expansion, goes without saying. Rents in the present segregated district are entirely out of proportion to what others are paying. Houses that are not worth half the amount are selling at extortionate prices, and it is most natural that we should endeavor to get away from such conditions, but we should go slow. It will be hardly possible for us to expand without getting in some one's way, and that there will develop friction is also true, but it is up to us to show moderation, and thus disarm our worst foes. For the present, go slow and in the course of time, and not a long time at that everything will come our way, and that without unnecessary friction. A RECEPTION The members of the Leap Year Sewing Circle gave a halloween reception in honor of their husbands at the home of their financial secretary, Mrs. Maurice Brown, 1632 E. Monument street, on Wednesday evening, October 31. The house was tastefully decorated with the Maryland colors, autumn leaves and ferns, and the ladies present were all dressed in Halloween costumes. The welcome address was delivered by the president, Mrs. Robt. W. Comegys. A solo was rendered by the founder and first president of the circle, Mrs. Millbourne Bell; recitations by Mrs. George Jones and Mrs. Edith Boardley; solo, Mrs. John T. Taylor, after which the dance was performed by Mrs. and Mrs. Jones. At a late hour the attendees were ushered into the dining room where the menu consisted of all the delicacies of the season. Among those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Robt. W. Comegys, Mr. and Mrs. Percy Dorsey, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Myers, Mrs. Cassie Hudson, Mr. Isiah Boone, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. C. Carroll, Mr. and Mrs. Joshua collins; Mr. and Mrs. Milburn Bell, Mr. and Mrs. Chas Norris, Mr. and Mrs. Robt. H. Young, Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Trusty, Miss Florence Thomas and Mr. Josiah Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Faulkner, Mr. and Mrs. John T. Taylor, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Reynolds, Mr. and Mrs. George Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Robt. P. Burley, Miss Alice Stewart, Mrs. Edith Boardley, Mrs. Sarah Wilson, Mrs. Ella Williams with Mrs. Rachel Henry at the piano. MAY BE CALLED TO THE COLORS Gough McDaniels, who attended the Officers' Training camp at Fort Des Moines, went to Washington Wednesday to take an examination for a commission in the army. He left the camp after staying three months and resumed his duties as teacher in the Colored High School. He had been recommended for a captaincy, but it now seems likely that he will be given a first lieutenancy. George S. Barnes, of 1223 Etting street took the examination of the State Dental Board this week. Should he succeed, he will be rewarded with a second lieutenancy in the army, and assigned to look after the teeth of the soldiers. Mr. Barnes is a graduate of the dental school of Howard University. WITH THE BOYS AT CVMP MEADE Continued from Page 1 duties, but felt that they have a work to do, and that they must not fail in this hour. As the evening shadows began to lengthen, and time for retreat drew near, we hastened our steps toward the railroad, and with a warm adieu to our officer friends, we reluctantly shook the dust of the camp from our feet and turned our eyes toward the big city, thoroughly and deeply impressed with the size and seriousness of the job that lies before those men back there, and not them only but the whole country who must stand back of them. A FINE SPIRIT The more than 6,000 colored conscripts seem to be imbued with the responsibility of the duty that lies before them. Not only are they to help fight the Germans, but they are to show to the world that the Negro American is a fighter and as intensely patriotic as any other element. Colonel Jackson, who is in command of the colored conscripts, told the officers and men that he wanted the colored troops to be the best trained at the camp, and the men have caught his spirit. Among the colored officers are a number of men who have seen active army service. Capt. Joseph Dabney spent more than 14 years as a member of the 24th Infantry. He is regarded as one of the best machine gun men in the army, and can dismantle and assemble a gun in record-breaking time. Then there is Capt. W. J. Pecks, who has seen service in one of the cavalry regiments. He is a born soldier, a fine disciplinarian and one who inspires confidence in the man. Leut. James B. Williams, of Baltimore, is now a member to the second adjutant of the naval officer. Capt. H. C. Atwood is another old army man, likewise Capt. Sprigg iCoutes, of Baltimore. MAKE FINE APPEARANCE The officers who won their commissions at Fort Des Moines are rapidly becoming familiar with their multiplicity of duties. Second Lieut. Curtis Carpenter, of Baltimore, is connected with the headquarters' company; Second Lieut. Daniel G. Hill has charge of a group of Tennessee men, while Lieut. Walter T. Webb has been assigned to Company K, and is in charge of a number of men from Philadelphia. Lieut. Edgar A. Love is with the machine gun squad and Lieuts. K. W. Cheers and Cyrus Marshall have good assignments. COLORED PHYSICIANS THERE Colored doctors trained at Fort Des Moines are arrived. They are commissioned to first lieutenants, and will assist in lookout after the health of the men. Among the doctors are Lieuts. Thomas E. Jones, John L. Curtis, W. J. Howard, all of Washington; J. Whittteko, of Louisville; Kamond junction, of Brunswick, Ga.; J. H. Fonder, and J. H. Williams, Des Jones, Howard and Jackson will be connected with the artillery and the others will be with the infantry. The Y. M. C. A. is one of the agencies looking after the welfare of the men. Dr. George W. Calhoun, of Washington, is in charge of the work among the colored. His assistants include: W. H. Craighead, former publisher of the Advocate-Verdict, Harrisburg, Pa.; J. E. Meblinger, of Mississippi, and M. B. McAden, of Buffalo. Reading rooms, a place for writing letters and recreation will be maintained. The Knights of Columbus are also working among the men. TRAINING 6,000 MEN If one imagines 6,000 mm, without uniforms or previous military experience coming from all walks of life, he will get an idea of the colored draftees. Some of the men from Tennessee are said to be illiterate and some have all sorts of names. One fellow when asked his name, said it was D. T. "The officer wanted to know if it meant Delirium Tremens. The man replied that all he knew was D. T. The officer then told the man to call himself "Dun" Thomas. Another fellow is named Candy Fields and still another said his first name is Outlaw. The men during their time off on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons amuse themselves in various ways, Football, baseball, card playing and letter writing engage their attention. The girls and relatives visit the nearby boys, thus adding to the pleasure of life. Drills and other army tactics keep the men busy and they are said to be learning rapidly. It is an amusing scene to notice a corporal with a handkerchief tied around his arm, indicating his rank. Men are, doing patrol duty and carrying sticks. When the reporter showed his ignorance by asking would a man shoot another with the stick, he was told "no, but he will slam h—out of you with it." BALTIMORE BOYS HAPPY BALMORE BOYS HAPPY The Baltimore and Maryland men are at happy. Most of them have been assigned to the division. Walter Batson, Winfield Chester, Albert Wright, Otho Church, Harry Young, Owen Raikes, Albert Babb and Hampton Guest are among them. They told the Afro men that they had read the paper with gusto last week, and expected a big bunch to be sent them this week. The promise was given to send them as many Afros as they wanted. After reading them, the papers are passed around the camp. The boys at the Y. M. C. A. also read the Afro with interest last week. A number of the men complained of sore shoulders, having been inculcated to prevent typhoid fever and the medical examination of the men in progress, and it is likely that a number will fail to meet the army test, and be sent back home. . The officers and men report not the slightest frictions with the whites, but, on the other hand, report that they were then treated with every consideration. MADAM MURRAY PLEASES A very representative audience was present last Thursday evening to greet Madam Charlotte Wallace Murray, of Washington in the opening concert of the season. She was admirably assisted by M. Llewellyn Wilson, organist and Charles E. Stewart, baritons. Mme. Murray is a most gifted and artistic singer with a stage manner which grips her audience while her soothing tones delight. Her first group of songs was English in build and appealed to the sentiments of the audience, while her second group, comprising French composers, required more finish and art which she well displayed. She was, perhaps, at her best in her group of American songs. Mme. Murray was a most favorable impression upon her hearers. SUPREME COURT DECLARES SEGREGATION VOID Continued from Page 1 ance under consideration that the employeer of colored servants in families is permitted, and nearby residences of colored persons, not coming within the blocks, as defined in the ordinance, are not prohibited. "The case presented does not deal with an attempt to prohibit the anmalization of the races. The right which the ordinance annulled was the civil right of a white man to dispose of his property if he saw fit to do so to a person of color and of a colored person to make such disposition to a white person. "It is urged that this proposed segregation will promote the public peace by preventing race conflicts. Desirable as this is, and important as is the preservation of the public peace, this aim cannot be accomplished by laws or ordinances which deny rights created or protected by the Federal Government. "It is said that such acquisitions by colored persons deprecate property owned in the neighborhood by white persons. But property may be acquired by undesirable white neighbors or put to disagreeable though lawful uses with like results. "We think this attempt to prevent the alienation of the property in question to a person of color was not a legitimate exercise of the police power of the State, and is in direct violation of the fundamental law enacted in the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution preventing state interference with property rights except by due process of law. That being the case the ordinance cannot stand." The Oliver Christian Relief Association at its regular monthly meeting Wednesday evening donated the sum $10,000 to Work for the purpose of purchasing wool to make wristlets for the soldiers. The work was outlined by Miss Frances L. Murphy, who has charge of a class in the Y. W. C. A. Building. QUEEN'S RALLY The Queen's Rally of Mt. Calvary A. M. E. Church, Baltimore, Md., held at Trinity A. M. E. Church, Friday evening, October 26th was the most successful event in the history of the church. The present membership of the church is 40, and this is the result of their uniting efforts led by the pastor, Rev. R. H. Gross, who has been their minister for six months: Belgium, Mrs. Emmia Smith. $115.53 England, Mrs. Addle Kyle, of Metropolitan M. E. Church, Baltimore. 5:30, Mrs. E. Dixon, Dixon. $80.70, Afrien, Mrs. Viola Bond. $18. 94; Church Fund, $173.88; Door Receipts, $12.00; Total $242.50. The above amount will be paid by the trustees on the $60 mortgage of the church, on which nothing has been paid for eleven years. We are very grateful to our friends for their assistance. Accept thanks. Mrs. Rachel Tucker, directress; Rev. Robert H. Gross, Pastor; Mme. N. J. Gross, Organist; Mr. B. W. Davage, Sec'y; Mrs. Wm. E. Johnson, Tres. CLARENCE CAMERON WHITE SCORES IN BECTUAL AT SHARP ST. M. E. C. RICH Clarence Cameron White, assisted by Sloeta J. Collins, the lyric soprano of Boston, gave a brilliant recital on Friday evening of last week at Sharp St. M. E. Church for the benefit of Morgan College. The program consisted of numbers mostly from our new modern writers. Miss Collins rendered the first number, "Jewel Song" from Faust by Gound. The range of her voice, her breathing and phrasing proved her to be an artist of exceptional quality. The next number was played by claire White Samuel Colordige-Taylor's Ballade C minor. Mr. White, as usual, displayed great brilliance in his playing. His phrasing, technic, and especially his bowing in difficult passage proved him a master of his instrument. Miss Collins was at her best in Sanderson's "Waltz Song," and was compelled to respond to several encores. Clarence White rendered the final group of four pieces. Mr. White's style of playing cultivated the whole audience. Never did Mr. White, play before such a large and appreciative audience in Baltimore. The program concluded with Clarence White's own composition "The Negro Dance," this selection characterized the Negro plantation dance during slavery.

LINCOLN HUMBLES HOWARD LINCOLN HUMBLES HOWARD Before a large crowd of rooters Saturday, Lincoln University defeated the White and Blue team of Howard University by a score of 7 to 0. The loss of so many of her regulars by the war draft and graduation proved a great handicap to Howard though they fought with the true spirit of their alma mater, from the tap of the gong to the end of the game. Howard managed to withstand the repeated onslaughts of the Lincolnites during the early stages of the first half just before its close Lincoln got on with a forward pass over the goal line and with a kicked goal counted seven points, which proved to be quite sufficient to win the game. The second half found Howard fighting every inch of the way but unable to make any impression on the line of the Lincolnites which held like a band of steel. Time and again Captain Pinderhughes sent his backs and himself against the Pennsylvanian, but only to be held in arms or thrown for a loss. He played during this half was cheated in territory. Lincoln's goal belter in any danger. Howard will meet the strong Union team on the 17th of the month. BASKETBALL OUTLOOK HAZY With the football season going apace, the outlook for basketball in local circles is about as hopeful as the Italian situation in Europe. The Athletic Council of the High School has made an appeal to the officers of Bethel Church for use of their hall this year but there is little hope held out that the request will be granted, as the officers of the church have planned other uses for the hall. Little has been heard of the St. Mary's team in the last two years and there is slight probability that its cage will respond with the shouts and cries of followers of this branch of sport during the coming season. The High School will doubtless make an effort to put a team in the field but with no place where they can guarantee return games it is conceded that it will be a little hard to secure any number of match games. The only ray of light in the whole dark situation is the hope for the early completion of the new Y. W. C. A.. when it is hoped that Baltimore will place herself along side of other big cities in this and all other branches of sport. HIGH SCHOOL BOYS VICTORS OVER ARMSTRONG By a 13-0 score the team of the Local High School downed the Armstrong Tech. eleven at Oriole Park last Saturday afternoon. The local team then showed superiority early in the game and soon carried the pigskin over their opponent's goal for a touchdown. Using a series of line plays and end runs they again carried the ball down field and over the line with a supreme rush. Butler and Thompkins did all of the scoring and most of the ground gaining for the local boys. Line up as follows: Armstrong—Bowie and Nightingale, L. E.; Arnold (Capt). Cawthorne, L. T.; Evans, L. G. Bocker, C.; Turner, G. Edwards, R. T.; Hughes, Marin, L. H.; Brown, R. B.; Nesbit Hill, L. H. E.; Cawthorne-Sedgwick, R. H. B.; Burke Davis, F. E. Colored High School—Wharton and Thompkins, L.

STORER TAKES MEASURE OF HOWARD "PREPS" For the first time in many moons Howard University "Preps" met defeat at the hands of Storer College last Saturday. The Howardites fought hard throughout the game, but the Storer boys seemed determined to even scores for the defeats of former years and toore great gaps in the white and blue line for tong gains. Early in the game Storer ended the loss of the ball end. White, but this did not deter them in their determination to win. Following a series of line plunges Storer placed the ball on Howard's 20 yard line from where McDaniel's eluded the entire Howard team for a touchdown. Benson kicked a perfect goal. Kedmon, Storer's halfback, was the lead of the ground waiving for his team. --- Wih Howard meeting defeat at the hands of Lincoln for the first time in three years, and Union downing Hampton for the first time in history, it begins to look as if all the football dope will be upset this year. Among the members of the Dunbar B. B. team who will be missed from the line up is Lieut. Webb (no—not Bernie), who is now stationed at Camp Meade. Capt. Carl Briscoe is busy organizing the Vandals, of Atlantic City for one of the hardest seasons in the history of that team. Games have already been scheduled with most of the larger teams in the East. Morgan will play her second game of the season next Saturday when she will stack up against the boys of the local high school. Secretary S. S. Booker has again been persuaded to look after the interests of the Morganites and is gradually whipping the boys into shape for the struggle. HAMPTON BOWS TO UNION. HAMPTON BOWS TO UNION. BY W. EVERETT CLARK For the first time in the history of the two schools, Virginia Union University defeated Hampton Institute at football in Richmond last Saturday. The day was an ideal one and a large crowd of people gathered at Hovey Park to witness the game. Union kicked off to Hampton, who lost the ball on downs, and after Union had made several attempts to gain on end runs, the ball again came into Hampton's possession. Harvey then attempted a forward pass, which was caught by Hucles of Union. After bringing the ball to Hampton's 40-yard line, the Unionites attempted a drop kick which was unsuccessful. As Howard began some terrific line plunging, the whisle blew for the first quarter. UNION SCORES FIRST The second quarter began with the ball in Hampton's possession. The ball being on her 40-yard line, Hampton attempted to punt. The punt was blocked and the ball went to Union on Hampton's 40-yard line. Hucles then made a successful drop kick, which gave Union 3 points. In the second quarter Union again kicked to Hampton Harvey receiving the kick mad a long gain which was followed by a 15 yard gain by Owl. After attempting another pass and being uncessful, Hampton lost the ball on downs. Union was held for downs and was forced to kick. Harvey caught the ball on Hampton's 20 yard line and run it back several yards. Then Owl punted to the centre of the field. A long forward pass was then made by Union, which was caught by Gregory. This brought the ball to Hampton's 40 yard line again, and the Richmond boys attempted another drop kick which did not go over. As Hampton put the ball in play again the whistle blew, for the first half. As the rival teams faced each other at the beginning of the second half each had a stronger determination to win. Hampton kicked to Union. After attempting another pass, the Unionites were forced to kick. Neither team was able to make first down for some time, but after several line plunges by Rigney, Hampton made a first down but was forced to kick. Gregory caught another pass for Union and was about to cross Hampton's goal for a touchdown, when he was overtaken and stopped by Brooks. The Hampton line did some excellent work in keeping the fast Union backfield from carrying the ball over for a touchdown. The last quarter began with Union attempting another drop kick. She was unsuccessful, however, and Hampton regained the ball on her 20-yard line. Owl then punted the ball into Union territory. Union made a short pass over centre, which netted a 10 yard gain by Tucles. Union was penalized 5 yards. She was then forced to kick again. Hampton attempted another pass, and was finally forced to kick. Union made another short pass, but again lost the ball on downs.

LIKE NEW "I don't see how your mother does it" said Alice" and mother says "your Dad is either earning a very large salary or your mother is a wonderful woman;" but Dad says its your mother that is really earning a wonderful salary because your mother's salary is less than his. Here you are this morning with a lovely new serge dress and skirt to go to school, to first aid knitting and Red Cross classes, shopping or the lectures this afternoon in any where outside of a formal luncheon or afternoon affair of any consequence, while I—your chum looks harly fit to go to school. I am compelled to wear Emma's casual dresses and the deeper item a tuck in them the deeper item and sleeves shortened. Every one of the girls and boys know it was Emma's. What are you laughing about. I fail to see anything to laugh about. Its no joke with me I tell you." "Because" replied Florence "I'm also wearing one of Mister Nita's old dresses made over. Did you think mother could afford me a new dress every month, with eight children to look out for. Of course not. But mother is a crank about buying good material. She says it does not pay to buy cheap material with a big family, and that it is better to wait a couple of months and buy a good material, than to buy cheap material and having it look shoddy in a few weeks." So Sister Nita's dresses are usually quite nice and when she needs a new dress mother looks over her clothes and gets the most out of style one and makes it over for me. Result I have a make believe brand new dress this morning." "Well" gasped Alice "I thought it was a really, truly, new dress. I didn't know you wore Nita's old things. I don't see how your mother made it look so nice an newie." "Oh! that's nothing" said Florence proudly, "mother's a real wizard, when I out grow it, mother will make Ellen a dress out of it and you'll then think she's a nice new dress on." "But tell me, how did she make it look like that, never saw Nita with a blue serge the dress of blue. Of course the dress did not its that Alice blue serge the dress she wore nearly all hot winter. Mother got two packages of dye and dyed it a deeper blue. The plaid it is trimmed with is an old skirt that was mother's ages ago, and makes a lovely combination; it is pretty if I do say so myself." When Alice got home she described the dress to her mother. "It's a beauty mother, you ought to see it and Florence looks lovely in it. The color is made out of the front of a hand embroidered waist with a tiny crocheted edge around it. The dress is a combination affair, skirt about three fourths serge. The plaid is cut to about ten inches below the waist line in one piece and joined to the serge, with a panel of the serge up the front to the neck, which is cut pointed. It has a belt of the serge made plain until within an inch and a half of the panel, the front of the belt cut in one with the panel in points which hap the belt part and a button on the point that overlaps. The sleeves had deep plain plaid cuffs, and the dress was all in place. It was a little beauty and didn't look a bit like an old dress made over. Oh, dear I do wish my clothes could be made over like that, then I wouldn't care if they were yours or Emma's old ones." "Alright," said mother, "I guess I'm not too old to learn, and I'll take that taupe dress of wool poplin of Emma's and that old black satin skirt of mine and go over to see Mrs. Hay and see if she can give me an idea how to fix them over into a one piece dress for you." "Oh, mother," said Alice as she kissed her mother and gave her a bear hug, "you are just the sweetest mother that ever was." A dainty camisole can be made from an old embroidered shirt waist that fastened the back. Cut out the sleeve the desired depth, and cut off the tail leaving enough for a slight blouse. Cut the arm holes an inch deeper put a buttonhotted, crocheted or tatted edge all around the top and arm holes. Make the shoulder straps of the suffs and put the same edge on them. Presto, a lovely camisole dainty enough to wear under the daintiest of blouses. WHAT TO GIVE THE MAN AT HOME One of the things a man will always welcome is a crocheted watch chain of fine black srira, an acceptable gift for either young or old. Use a fine stecle needle and measure up the width from his watch bar which is to be passed thru the buttonhole in front. Crochet enough with single crochet to pass from vest to buttonhole to pocket and back. Leave enough thread on the needle to join the two ends flatly. This chain is slightly elastic and consequently saves the watch many a fateful jerk Mary MRS. S. B. DAVIS New Young Women's Christian Association MRS. S. B. DAVIS New General Secretary of the local Young Women's Christian Association Another was five inches long—one inch wide done inclose hard twisted black silk thread, wwith a single crochet stitch and mounted for a fob chain by a jeweler. Still another given to a soldier boy was woven from mother's hair and mounted. A silk scarf is another article a man will welcome. He never has too many. They can be knit or crocheted and may have contrasting stripes running across the ends or be finished with fringe. Fraternity or college colors or the more conservative black and white are happy suggestions for this kind of gift. Handkerchiefs seem a trifle gift, yet a half-dozen or dozen linen ones all embroidered with his initial in one corner will please him or have him the signature sign, or sign in each corner and see how pleased he'll be, as it appeals to the practical side of him and his handkerchiefs can never be mistaken for another's. DONT THROW AWAY YOUR OLD PARAFIN Paraffin that has become unclean thru usage in canning and preserving may be cleaned and reused. Don't throw it away because dirt and trash have become mixed with it. Many times paraffin can be cleaned with a brush in cold water. If this does not remove all the dirt, says a specialist of the United States department of agriculture, heat the paraffin to boiling and strain thru two or three thicknesses of cheese cloth placed over a tunnel. Or a thin layer of absorbent cotton over a thickness of cheese cloth may be used as a strainer. One straining should be sufficient ordinarily, but if the paraffin still is unclean and strain again. Any paraffin lodging in the strainer may be removed by heating the cloth and pouring off the hot liquid to another strainer. Cut tomatoes in medium thick slices and grill over a hot fire. Baste with a little melted butter, dust with salt and pepper and place on each slice a spoonful of scrambled eggs. Sprinkle with Chopped parsley and serve immediately. Served in this too eggs should serve four per person. . Tomatoes sliced, placed on buttered toast, sprinkled with grated cheese, then placed in the oven long enough to melt the cheese is an appetizing dish to serve for lunch or supper. BEEF STEAK ROLL Have one and one-half pounds of round steak cut thin, make a dressing by mixing together a cupful of stale bread crumbs, a half teaspoonful of salt, a pinch of pepper, a small chopped onion or celery, whichever is preferred, one tablespoonful of butter, a little more than a gill of water, or enough to soften the crumbs slightly. Season the steak with one-half teaspoonful of salt and a little pepper. Some use one egg with this dressing but it can be omitted. Spread dressing on steak and roll up, winding dainting cotton or white wrapping cord around the roll of steak to keep it in place. Put the roll in four tablespoonful of fat or beef drippings—hot in the frying pan—cook until brown, then gradually add a scent pint of water and stir until it boils up. Add a teaspoonful of salt, a little pepper and a half pint of strained tomatoes. Strain this on the roll which should now be in the steak pan, covered and placed where the sauce will bubble for two hours. When done, remove the strings place roll on a warm dish and pour sauce over it. M. B. ARE YOU ANXIOUS TO KNOW ANYTHING? Improve Your Conditions, Gain Personal Magnetism, Helping Power, Become Happier, More Successful? He is highly recommended. In ancient Egypt, Spiritualism was the very foundation of the national religion. The Egyptian High Priest taught the initiated that the soul was immortal, and the visible world is but the picture of the invisible spiritual world 3. Spiritualism was demonstrated through the ages. Spiritualism is not Ghost-ism; Spiritualism means to converse with unseen intelligencies and it is as ancient as remotest antiquity. The disciples were all spiritual. Paul saw a "house not made with hands eternal in the heavens." He had visions he was entranced; heard voices; spirit intelligencies speaking to him out of the unseen. Read what the Bible says: "Now what concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. Now their are diversities of gifts but the same spirit. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to everyone to profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit, the word of wisdom, knowledge, faith, gifts, prophecy, discerning of spirits and all other gifts." Cor. XII 1, 4, 7-10.
