--- VOL. XXVI, No. 11 WITH THE BOYS AT CAMP MEADE Recruits Are Being Rapidly Whipped Into Shape-A Stupendous Task For Young Officers OFFICERS INSTRUCTED. Y. M. C. A. Looking Out For Social and Religious Welfare of the Recruits. By FRANKLIN F. JOHNSON Camp Meade, Md., November 16. Camp Meade's diversified population, which includes a little over 6,000 colored men chosen through the selective draft, are learning war tactics with a rapidity that is astonishing to There are Jews and Gentiles—Irishmen, Italians, men of German descent, Russian birth, French and English lineage, and last but not least that buffeted object of American prejudice, hard-earned, reliable and brave soldier. New York. Indeed, when one scans this unassorted mass of colored men coming from all walks of life and sees them going through the first stunts of the life of a soldier, he begins to wonder. Men who are to fight for world democracy, but who have been denied equal rights at the age men whose anxiety to get in the thickest of the fray against the Germans is indicated by their justness with which they say, "We're Going to Get the Kaiser," one here in profusion. are An idea of the stupendous task that is entailed upon those seeking to "lick" these raw recruits into shape may be had when one knows that quite a number of them are illiterate and come from environments that do not easily shape one to be a soldier. The illiterates, for the most part came from Tennessee and some from the rural sections of Maryland. It may be added that some also come from such cities as Baltimore and Philadelphia. The presumption, however, is that the last-named class of illiterates was born in rural sections where school facilities forenced youth are poor, and only resided in an urban community after nearly reaching old age. Their lack of education is a sad commentary on the white South for curtailing greatly the educational opportunities of the Negro. That many of the men are readily catching on to the atmosphere of army life is indicated by the story a young lieutenant told of an illiterate who was assigned to sertinet duty a few evenings ago. The sentinel, the story runs, was told not to allow any loud noise, especially in front of the building where the officers were receiving instruction. A man began to crank up his automobile, when the noise attracted the sentinel. "Halt!" cried the sentinel. "You can't make that noise here, so you will have to come back in the morning and get your automobile," and the man can back the next morning. Wesley tosters will hardly escape here when these boys have the searching to do," said an officer, "for they will see that the regulations are carried out to the letter." The officers have hard work each day, their only respite being Wednesday and Saturday afternoons, when the men are given a half holiday, and on Sundays. Besides looking after the men and drilling them into army ways, they have to attend school of instruction four or five evenings a week. Then they have to instruct the non-commissioned officers of whom there will be quite a number. The drilled men are carried through numerous drills daily and given other instruction pertaining to army life. With special aptitude in the trades are being singled out, and assigned to what is known as the utility engineering department. Some of the men have built board walks and done other carpentering stunts during the past week. FUSY AT HEADQUARTERS BUSY AT HEADQUARTERS The headquarters building of the 36th Infantry and the 351st regiment of Field Artillery presents a busy scene. There Captain Mohlinger and a number of men are engaged. Four or five typewriting machines are busy. Attorney J. Stewart Davis, Baltimore, is on duty there as a regimental sergeant major of the 351st Field Artillery. All of the artillery companies are commanded by white commissioned officers, colored men having been excluded hitherto by the artillery brass. Barnacles A-2S and B-3S are quarted most of the Baltimore contingent. Wade Hampton Gist, of the 14th ward quota, has been made a duty sergeant and Harvey Young, a son of Rev. Alfred Young, has been made a supply sergeant in Battery C, 351st Field Artillery. MEN VACCINATED Many of the men have been vaccinated this week, and, as a consequence, are carrying sore arms. The vaccination followed the second inoculation to prevent typhoid fever. Physical examinations are in progress, and it is expected that a number of men will be sent back home at the end of the month. Drifting boards, it appears, certified a larger percentage of colored men than whites, and many are not up to army standards physically. NEW Y. M. C. A. OPENS The Y. M. C.

McGUINN REVIEWS CASE Prominent Lawyer Says The Squirming of Segregationists is Useless. At the request of the Afro-American, Mr. Warner T. McGuinn, one of the best known members of the Maryland bar, has prepared a review of the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court invalidating segregation laws. The review riddles the contention of local segregationists that: the local law was not declared invalid in the decision affecting Louisville. By Warner T. McGuinn "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 recent decisions of this court. But it is equally well established that the police power, broad as it is, cannot justify the passage of a law or ordinance which runs counter to the limitations of the Federal Constitution." MR. JUSTICE DAY When Judge Day penned the words quoted above, as the unanimous opinion of the Supreme Court of the United States, he not only pronounced, but sealed the doom of the segregationists throughout the land. The Federal Constitution and laws passed within its authority are by the express terms of that instrument made the supreme law of the land. There remains now no legal contraption which their fertile minds can devise by which the provisions of the Constitution, as set forth in the Fourteenth Amendment, can be overridden. The segregationists may squirm, show their teeth, talk wildly and go down to the tavern and "cuss" the court but as long as the 14th Amendment remains a part of the Federal Constitution, segregation is dead. There is only one appeal from this decision and that is to an arbitrament of arms. The police power of a State—the gate through which so much has entered to nullify the plain provisions of the Federal Constitution has finally been halted by the stern declaration that the 14th Amendment protects life, liberty and property from invasion by the states without due process of law. The Federal Constitution did not create these rights; the right of personal security, the right of personal liberty and the right of private property are original rights. They inhere in man as man whether in or out of a state of society, they are not dependent upon institutions or statutes, but the duty of all law enacted and preserve them. The framers of the Federal Constitution in question evidently had in mind the protection of these rights when the Amendment was enacted. Now the right of private property can only be approached or apprehended through its attributes. One of those attributes or incidents is its use—its legitimate and proper enjoyment. To say that the legitimate and proper enjoyment of land by one who has dominion over it must be limited by the number of white or colored persons in a block, as is provided by the usual segregation ordinance, is subversive of the whole system of property rights known to the Emperor, the cooking pele. Simply interdiction (ordinance) says the Court is based wholly on color; simply that and nothing more" and then in one of the most lucid and clear cut opinions that has been handed down by that august tribunal, he proceeds to batter to pieces segregation based upon color. A great decision, by a great jurist. Awaiting the opinion of the Supreme Court of the United States. In this very case, our Court of Appeals has held, sub curia, its opinion on the segregation ordinance of Baltimore City in a case before it. There can be no doubt that the ruling of the highest court in the United States power the termination of this power, there has been bitter disappointment in some quarters and correspondence elation in others. In the crisis through which our nation is passing, every ounce of man power is needed—at home and in the field. Patriotism demands an united effort on the part of all. He who, in this hour of peril, would defy the decisions our highest court would try to keep up this power, fight inflammatory processes is rendering signal aid and comfort to the enemy. The exercise of common horse-sense all around is needed in order that this government of ours "may not perish from the earth." FURNISS A CITY FATHER Indianapolis. Ind. November 15.—Colored voters here are rejoicing over the election in the City Council of Dr. James Furhill. Furhill, known in Mystic, Spring circles. HISTORY OF THE MUSEUM OF ART AND COLLECTIONS IN NEW YORK CITY MOORLAND TELLS OF Y. M. C. A. ACTIVITIES IN PRESENT CONFLICT ences, he also said that the soldier boys stationed at Camp Meade should have such a place to spend their leave when in Baltimore. The Y. M. C. A., he went on to say, was looking after the needs of the men in various cantonnements, and there was no discrimination on account of color. The $25,000,000 which the Y. M. C. A. is campaigning will be spent for both divisions or will spent for both races. Y. M. C. A. and its work had been responsible for the success of the many of the men who attended the Officers' Training Camp at Des Moines he outlined the work that is being done at various army camps. He praised Dr. George W. Cabinss, who went to Des Moines as an unpaid worker and was later prevailed upon to relinquish his lucrative medical practice in Washington to become general secretary of the work at Camp Meade. He told Sheby Davidson that over the years he was skeptical of the work for a long time, but who is now doing fine work at Camp Dix, Wrightstown, N. J. Continuin ghis recital of the sacrifices which men have made to enter the war work of the Y. M. C. A., he told of a young Philadelphia who gave up a fine paying and responsible position with a large corporation in order to enter work in France, and of a minister in the West who resigned a fine charge to go to France. No sooner had General Pershing call to send him the letter when the call to send over two colored Y. M. C. A. men. There were five colored men in East Africa, he went on to say, who had and are suffering untold hardships in doing Y. M. C. A. work. Declaring that colored people are making more money than ever before and they are willing to give to any good cause, he urged the workers to let Baltimore set a pace for the rest of the country. 100 WORKERS OUT There are 100 workers out for the $10,000. They are armed with attractive folders explaining the object of the campaign, and containing a cut of the new building which is to be built by next spring. The folder points out that 3,648 made plograms five years ago, of which 1,004 have paid in full and 616 partly paid. There are 2,028 on which nothing has been paid. The workers will see persons who have paid part or none of their subscriptions, as well as trying to get others. MUST GIVE New Orleans, La., November 15.—The State Railroad Commission has issued an order compelling all railroads in Louisiana to provide equal accommodations for colored passengers before the first of May, 1918. Though the "Jim Crow" car law provided that both races be given equal accommodations, those provided for the colored people have been notoriously bad. Lack of sleeping dining car. Pullman car facilities, as well as good day conches have been a crying evil. Other Southern States have been recessed in the same way. The Interstate Commerce Commission turned down the plea made by the Board of Elishops of the A. M. E. Church that the railroads be compelled to furnish equal accommodation Tells Local Workers of Sacrifices Being Made in Interest of Human Brotherhood. That the Y. M. C. A. is to play an important part in the uplift of the race and in the safeguarding of young men who have entered army service was asserted by Dr. J. E. Moorland, international secretary of the Y. M. C. A., at the launching of the campaign on Thursday night to raise $10,000 for the local Y. M. C. A. The meeting was held at Pythian Castle and was attended by many persons who have long been interested in the work of the local association. Mr. Harry T. Pratt presided. The chairmen of the various teams said that they are going to raise the entire amount required in order that Baltimore may have the most modern Y. M. C. A. building. Dr. W. H. Wright said that each man on his team would raise the amount required of him and Mr. Fearless Williams declared that if the twelve men on his team were not equal to the task that he would draft others. WOMEN TO WORK Mrs. Carrington L. Davis, chairman of the women's team, said the ladies would surely do their part. Mr. William Robinson, a member of Team C, said that the Alphanist Glee Club, of which he is a member, would give $250. His announcement created much enthusiasm. This with the $100 subscribed by Capt. Geo W. Brown last week start his team off with $450. Mr. James W. Hughes, president of the Y. M. C. A., said that the workers must try to secure as many small subscriptions as possible, citing several instances where persons had given $1,000. Mr. S. S. Booker, general secretary of the Y. M. C. A., said that the new building will soon be an assured fact. He pointed out that the association with its present inadequate building has $25 members. Dr. Moorland, who has been an international secretary of the Y. M. C. A. for the past twenty-five years and has led successful campaigns in a number of cities for buildings that cost $100,000 or more, was given an ovation as he arose to speak. Declaring that he pleased with the new manifestation by those would aid in raising the needed $10,000, he declared every where people were being brought together to undertake big things. "There has never been a time," he said, "when the Y. M. C. A. was more needed than now. I used to think that when the colorer people moved into those large rooftop houses on Druid Hill avenue that there would not come a time soon when Baltimore needed a modern Y. M. C. A. building with dormitory. There have been large numbers of people who have come into Baltimore within the past few years, and they need an agency such as the association." Asserting that Baltimore boys needed a place where they will be surrounded with wholesome influ- 100 WORKERS OUT WHITE SOLDIERS INSULT OFFICER Treatment of Lieutenant Sanders in Vicksburg, Miss., To Be Reported To President Wilson. St. Louis, Mo., November 15—That whites of Vicksburg, Miss., heaped indignation on him while visiting his parents in that city is the statement made by Joseph B. Sanders, who was commissioned a second lieutenant at Des Moines last month. Not only did he complain to the War Department about his treatment, but he wrote to the editor of a race journal published here and told of his inrowing experience to those assembled at a smoker given here in his honor. Just after the colored officers were given their commissions at Des Moines a month ago, Lieutenant Sanders went to Vicksburg to visit his parents before taking up army duties at Fort Dodge. Whites there demanded that he take off his officer's uniform and he had to flee from the city in civilian clothes. History of the attitude of some Southern whites against colored soldiers ready to fight for their country follows. "I arrived in Vicksburg on Oct. 18 and was met by a platoon of white soldiers standing around the station. They did not make any attempt to render any military courtesy whatsoever, but that was all right and I did not say anything to any of them. "I was met on the streets by the same soldiers and they called me all kinds of names, and said I need not look to them for a salute but I do not get it. And I was knocked off the sidewalks and then cursed occasions and then cursed and ordered to get out of uniform and leave town and not show up on the streets. "I left in disguise and my mother brought my clothes up to me at Greenville, Miss. On the following day I left there for St. Louis." Lleut. Sanders, on his arrival in St. Louis, was entertained by the Negro population at a smoker given in his honor. In relating this occurrence, he declared that soldiers told him that "no nigger could wear a uniform inappl that people had to honor." Sanders said two police officers called on him at his parents' home and ordered him to get out of his uniform and to leave town. At first he refused to comply with this order, but when he saw a crowd was forming he decided, for the protection of his parents, to go. He then put on an old suit of his father's and got away through the rear door of the home. Outside he was accosted by a crowd, which let him pass after a short questioning. He believes he was not recognized in the civilian clothes he wore. Washington, November 15.—Richard W. Thompson, the well known newspaper correspondent, who has been serious ill, is confronting. PRICE THREE CENTS DR. JOHNSON AT UNION 45 YEARS Venerable Baptist Minister Has Been Foremost in Civic and Religious Life of City a Half Century Led Battle for Right of Colored Lawyers to Practice in Baltimore. Rev. Dr. Harvey Johnson will wind up 45 years as pastor of Union Baptist Church, the record length of service in one congregation in Maryland, this Sunday. Dr. Johnson was born in Fauquier county, Va., in August 1843. He was one of the first students at the old Wayland Seminary, established by Baptists at Washington just after the Civil War. He was called to the pastorate of Union Baptist Church in 1872, succeeding Rev. William Thompson, who had then been dead for about a year. When Dr. Johnson became pastor of Union Baptist Church the denomination had comparatively few followers in Baltimore. The First Colored Baptist Church, the Leadenhall Street congregation and Union Church were the only ones then in the city for colored people. A number of the present local congregations are outgrowths of Union Church. growins Not only did he soon win popular favor as an effective minister, but he was one of the vanguard in the battle for removal of discriminations against the race in Baltimore and Maryland. When the late James h. Wolff and Charles S. Morris came to the city and hung out their shingles as attorneys in the old Douglas Institute, Dr. Johnson led the movement which would admit colored lawyers to practice their profession in the courts of Maryland. The battle was lost, however, the courts then ruling that colored men could not practice law in Maryland courts. As they only had the right to practice in the United States Court, Messrs. Wolff and Morris left the city—the former going to Boston, where he became a prominent figure, and the latter going to New York City. SUCCEEDS EVENTUALLY Dr. Johnson did not give up the battle, however, but kept pegging away, with the aid of others. He interested a white attorney named Hobbs in the fight, with the result that the Supreme Bench of Baltimore in 1885 decided that colored men had the right to practice law in Maryland. On the 26th anniversary of the decision colored lawyers presented him a handsome silk umbrella. Not only did he fight for this, but he aided materially in the fight for colored teachers in the colored schools, the establishment of the Colored High School, the inclusion or colored women in provisions of the Bustard Act and against various "Jim Crow" measures. Never a politician and one who would, not be tempted by the bait of politicians, Dr. Johnson has not failed to let the public know in no uncertain terms his views on public questions as they affect the race. He fought against discriminations practiced by white Baptists against that colored institution, and result that the Baptists of Maryland are now paddling their own canoes. So vigorously has he assailed white Baptists for discriminations against colored ones that some whites would not employ a man or a woman a few years ago who belonged to Union Baptist Church. He was one of the leading spirits in the old Brotherhood of Liberty. When the Maryland Suffrage League was organized in 1905 to fight the first disfranchising amendment, he faced the opposition of a presidency. He declined, however, saying that a younger man should lead race battles. Dr. Johnson aroused the ire of President Harrison once when he disputed the President's assertion that the national administration was working against lynching. The tilt was during an interview at the White House. Dr. Johnson has written numerous pamphlets dealing with the race question. His book, "The Nations From A New Point of View," attack the white man's idea of supremacy and shows up his alleged hypocrisy. Dr. Johnson was married in 1877 to Miss Amelia Hall, a member of an old landmark in New York, been a history one, Mrs. Johnson not only being a devoted wife, but a cultivated woman. They have three children, Mrs. Jessie Shaw, wife of a Boston clerkman; Prentiss Johnson and Harvey Johnson, Jr. His home at 1923 Druid Hill avenue, is a veritable storehouse of information, books and pamphlets abounding on all subjects, especially Dr. Johnson's favorite hobby—the rights of the race. T. W. FLEMING RE-ELECTED Cleveland, O., November 14.—Thomas W. Fleming, a well known attorney, was elected to the City Council for the third time from the 11th ward on Tuesday, on last week. He defeated four white #1 candidates. His success was manifested in the campaign, as he said, that Democrats sought to get other colored men in the fight so Fleming would be defeated.

This year J. E. Robeson of Fordham is one of the bright lights in the football heaven. He will bear watching. Adjutant General Fraser of the state of North Dakota was ordered by the War Department to send one percent of the State's colored contingent to cantonments. North Dakota has only fifty men, which puts General Fraser up against the proposition of sending one half of some recruit as per orders. The last person to buy a liberty bond in Houston, Texas was a colored youngster of ten years. In Houston, Texas, mind you. A DEVILISH INSINUATION Just why the Evening Sun paper should think that all the colored women who have been sent to the prison at Ocoquan are prostitutes and what authority it has for saying so we would like to know. It takes occasion to throw out this insulting proposition to colored people simply because of its hourbour proclivities. If these women agitators who are picketing the White House are being sent to a house of detention for prostitutes it seems to us they have just cause for real action against the authorities, but, if, on the other hand, they are simply law breakers and are sent to a prison common to all law breakers of the same type then the Evening Sun has no excuse for its black hearted insinuation that all the colored women who are in the Ocoquan prison are of the immoral type, simply because they are colored women and in a common prison. The September number of the African World, published in Monrovia, has this to say about Liberian politics: "We hear it whispered that a National Progressive Political Party will in the near future be launched, in opposition to the "True Whig Party" for the purpose of safeguarding the interests of the Nation. Our informant says there must be steps taken to break down the corruption now so rampant in the Whig Party, and the National Party comes out as the champion of reforms in Liberian politics." Such is the nature of politics, that it needs reforming, in little republics like Liberia, or in big ones like the United States. America spends and mis-spends its billions, Liberia"has only a few millions at its disposal, and in the expenditure of these, there is room for the charge of graft. HOW NASHVILLE DID IT The largest medical school for colored students in this country is the Meharry Medical College in Nashville, Tennessee, with some 26 teachers and more than four hundred men and women studying to become doctors, dentists and pharmacists. It is not the fact that Meharry is the largest medical school in the country, larger than Howard and comparing with it for the training offered, but Meharry is taught, administered, attended and supported by colored people. This brings us to the main point. Recently Meharry Medical College had a significant day. On that day the Anderson Anatomical Hall was dedicated. The funds for this building were donated by Dr. and Mrs. J. W. Anderson, of Dallas, Texas. Dr. Anderson is not a millionaire. He began life poor. By hard work and economy he managed to accumulate considerable wealth. He is said to be worth $100,000. The new hall cost $10,000. This is not only the largest recorded amount given by a colored man for philanthropic purpose, but Dr. Anderson is the first alumnus of a colored school to give so substantially to the school that gave him his education. Dr. Anderson's example will do more than prove an incentive to the students of Meharry to go out and do likewise; it is an opening gun to the effect that the successful man in business and the professions has arrived. More and more the colored people themselves as they grow in wealth may and ought to be expected to take up the endowment and support of their own philanthropic institutions. In this connection, the people of Baltimore have a singular opportunity before them to help Morgan College. Perhaps there is no single business or professional man in Baltimore who can do for Morgan, what Dr. Anderson did for Meharry. Yet this ought not to deter us. Morgan needs ten thousand dollars to pay on its new site. It has $50,000 for endowment and $50,000 for a building, in hand. These sums cannot be used to purchase land. It is coming to the people of Baltimore for help. Morgan is simply coming to its many graduates and friends in the community that it has served for fifty years. The knowledge of what one man has done for Meharry Medical School ought to make the task of the Morgan Citizen's Committee extremely light. Perhaps the best agency for teaching national pride and patriotism in Germany is the public schools. These schools have been at once the wonder and the despair of the rest of the civilized world, yet no one denies the fact that they have succeeded only too well in teaching these two things mentioned. Up to 1910, German public schools placed the emphasis on Latin and Greek so common in our secondary schools. In that year Emperor William decreed that this should be changed, and that there after, German history, religion and geography were to be the main subjects stressed in the public education. From then until now that German youth who would not know of the glorious past of the House of Hol enzollern has been hard to find. What is our own case in the histories studied in our public schools. Take them from cover to cover, and the word Negro occurs just three times: at the coming of the first shipload of slaves to America; the Slavery Question 1850-60, and the passage of the amendments to the constitution. If the study of school history is to give the child some knowledge of what his country is and how it has come about, the colored child gets no idea of the share his parents have had in the operation. If the school history is to set up models, of action for the child, the colored child hears nothing about colored soldiers, colored writers, but ever and always about persons who are American to be sure, but who for all practical purposes offer as much inspiration to emulation as the Chinese. If then we find fault with the German public school system by saying that it teaches too abundantly and one-sidedly we should find fault with the system in colored schools in the United States that teaches race pride and patriotism not at all. In an address before the Teachers' Institute in Washington last week, Dean William Pickens called attention to the fact that we should have far to search for a grander example of courage and obedience to orders than the charge of the black troops at Fort Wagner. Colored children should read of this instead of the charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklave. America has no sweeter singer than our own Dunbar, said Dean Pickens, and we learn very little about him in our public chools. SPEED UP! DO YOUR BIT! The new Young Men's Christian Association building is now an assured fact. The old buildings of the site are being torn down and the new one will be in course of erection in a few days. There is a balance of ten thousand dollars that the colored people are to raise in order to meet the requirements. The fifty-thousand dollars to be raised by the white association is ready and the balance from Mr. Rosenwald will be forthcoming as soon as called for, it is up to us to do our part. Several large subscriptions have been paid and others will be paid in a very short time. We must not let the building go much further without having done our part. In these times of war and stress when money is being called from almost every source, one would hardly think such matters could well be carried on, but they can if every one will do his part. None of us, hardly, have given "until it hurts;" we may yet have to give that way, and it will not be a bad thing for us, for we will be the better for it. Let us give us we have never given before and let us see to it that we have an adequate building where our soldier boys may find r. haven of rest when they come to the city for a short visit. THE FORUM "PART TRUTH SOMETIMES EQUALS NO TRUTH. In the last week's issue of the Commonwealth, under the above caption, Dr. A. L. Gaines attempts to correct the report of a statement attributed to him at the Preachers' Meeting of October 22. True truth was not published, but what was said in the Afro-American was the truth. Personally, I entertain no ill feelings in the matter, but I have always had a sacred regard for the truth. I have never intentionally misrepresented anyone and would not do Dr. Gaines a wrong. Dr. Statenau, in opening the discussion of Rev. Thomas' paper, said, he believed that there should be a change in the manner of paying the widows of ministers and that the Presiding Elder should be paid from the General Fund, stating that they were the assistants of the Bishops and in order to raise them to a level representing the office they should be paid from the same fund, and that the widows of ministers should be paid by check monthly, and avoid the humiliating sight of going to annual conference waiting around for their little stink. To this idea Dr. Gaines took exception by saying that he was surprised at the position of Dr. Stepeau, saying that he (Stepeau) should think more of his wife than to have her even expecting anything from the conference, further stating that ministers should provide a living for his wife and family while living, then when he dies his family would not be looking to the conference for anything. The truth is that Dr. Gaines finds himself in 'bad' for the statement in the paper, but he no interest in the matter further than to see that the Gaines idea will not get beyond himself, for ideas, like disease, are contagious. Dr. Gaines has twisted his statement entirely out of joint. He went further and said that every faithful layman's wife had as much right to get a pension as the wife of a minister—the church had as much right to care for the one as the other. If Dr. Gaines is willing to the matter all right, if not, I can call on ministers who were present that day and find plenty to confirm what I have written. If Dr. Gaines wants to play politics REIM, NELSON, Hancock, Md. ENGAGEMENT ANNOUNOED Mr. and I. William Dunlap announce the engagement of their daughter, Lauretta M. to Rev. James C. Allen, pastor of the M. E. Church at Grottoes, Vt. Miss Dunlap is a graduate of Morgan College, class of 1917, with the degree of Bachelor of arts and for the past five years his taught sewing during the night school session at School No. 113. She is also the active workers of Union Baptist Church and a member of the choir. Rev. Allen is a graduate of Howard University, classes of 1911 and 1913; receiving both the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Divinity. He also pursued a course at the New York University. He is a member of the Washington Conference. J. M. HOLLAND DEAD Customs Expert Passes Away in New Orleans New Orleans, La., November 14.—Following a ten day illness, Justin M Holland, one of the best known colored men in the State, died here a few days ago. The deceased was a graduate and was educated in the public schools of tran city. He went to live in the West Indies for a short time, coming to this city in 1868. He was a committee clerk in the Legislature during the Reconstruction period. In 1871, when 23 years of age, he was appointed to a position in the local customs service. He arose step by step until he became deputy collector of customs. This position he held for the past sixteen years. He was regarded as an expert in customs, and his help was at all times eagerly sought. For 23 years he was secretary of the local board of Civil Service Examiners. After the clining years forced him to give up the latter work, he had to promise that he would counsel would be given at all times. President Roosevelt offered him the position of Naval Officer at this port, but he declined, preferring to remain as deputy collector of customs. Mr. Holland was contemporaneous with such well known figures as former Gov. P. B. S. Pinchback, Col. James W. Lewis, B. S. Madison Van Ness, and Casonave His remains were taken to Milwaukee, Wis., for interment. JOHNSON RECEIVES ENCONIUMS New York, November 14.—Edward AS Johnson, who will hold the distinction of being the first colored member of the New York Legislature, having been elected on the Republican-Fusion ticket from the Nineteenth Assembly district, has received many congratulations from his friends. "My campaign was on strictly party lines," Mr. Johnson said at his home at No. 154 Nassau street. "I could not have won without the support of the white voters of the district, as here are only about 3,000 colored voters there. "As Assemblyman I shall devote my efforts chiefly to legislation that will reduce the cost of living. I will endeavor to reduce the burden of State taxation so that the average tenant will not have to pay such high rents. I strongly favor a reform of the civil courts of this state, particularly the municipal courts, in such a way as to enable a poor man to obtain legal redress without unnecessary delay an expense." HOSPITAL GETS MORE FUNDS The Baltimore County Teachers' Association, at its recent meeting at Towson, voted to maintain a bed at Provident Hospital and gave $30 toward purchasing blankets for the institution. Rev. W. Jefferson Moore, financial agent of the hospital, delivered an address setting forth the needs of the institution. He was followed by Prof. John T. Hershner, assistant superintendent of schools for the county, who urged the teachers to help the hospital, and who started the business by giving $30. The hospital has been left $2,000 by Ferdinand Dietsch, who died on October 28. He also left the Shelter for Aged and Inform Women on West Eddie street, $5,000. ST. LOUIS KICKS IN St. Louis, Mo., November 15.—As soon as the segregation law decision became known here, Judge Dyer, of the United States District Court, said that he was willing to make the temporary injunction against the local law permanent. The local law was adopted at a special election called by preponents of the measure, and held on February 29, 1916. 52,224 voted for it and 17,877 against. KNOX—In sad but loving remembrance of my dear wife, Julia M. Knox, who departed this life, November 16, one year ago. Oh dearest wife you are happy, Over the victory you have won; A crown in Glory, a home in Heaven, Your work on earth was well done. By her husband, O. T. Knox A home without a mother, None can tell there is another; A sorrowful home and a place for a vacant chair. will wipe away our every tear. A PRESENTATION Last Sunday at Centennial Methodist Episcopal Church, four young men, Messrs. Wm. Lee, Walter Queen, Raphael Barrett and George Wainwright, presented the Riddick Chapter, Epworth League, with a beautiful silver flower vase.

No. 27 AT CAMP MEADE Continued from Page 1 of the men. The Knights of Columbus bus holds out a hearty welcome to all. It is said that the Knights of Columbus will send some colored Catholics here to aid in looking after the men. The Y. M. C. A., in B-39, was opened this week. There the men resort for social intercourse, writing letters and to look at the movies, as well as for reading. Religious work, educational advancement, physical culture and social enjoyment. Messrs. Church, Holm and Anderson are in charge, there. PIANOS NEEDED The Y. M. C. A., in D-30, presents a busy aspect. There Messrs. George W. Cabinass, M. D.; M. B. McAden, E. A. Wallace, William H. Craighead and Jares E. Mehlinger look after the welfare of the men. The Y. M. C. A. buildings are not large, however, for all of the social diversions needed. The men 'need pianos and pool tables for their barracks, and would be thankful it their friends outside would raise sufficient funds to purchase the same. Many of the barracks for whites have those amusement facilities. Many of the soldiers are without funds and need money for tobacco and stamps. They would be grateful if their friends back home would send those little things that add to the joy of their life. They are thankful for the gifts they have received within the past-week, but will still more so when other little necessaries arrive. The drafted men say that they would like to see more of their friends on the visiting days—Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday—as they feel somewhat lonely when the folks "back home" seemingly forget them. On Sundays hundreds of visitors come. On Wednesday the crowds are not so large, and the drafted men amuse themselves in various ways. Foot-ball, baseball, card-playing and quoits are favorite pastimes. A visit to the commissary is an interesting sight. There men will be seen buying cake, candy and soft drinks. Strong drink is tabooed, and one fellow who was gulping down a glass of soda water said, "If I only had a tablespoonful of Fred Baurnschmidt's beer I would be happy." LIEUT. McDANIELS A VISITOR Lieut. Goug. McDaniels, who has just received a commission, was down Wednesday to bid the officers goodbye before leaving: for Fort Riley, Kansas. He received a warm greeting.

It is reported that one Eoberson, a lanky colored lad of 19 summers, is one of the season's football finds. The quite young Eoberson weighs something over 200 pounds and stands a few inches over six in his stockings. He is a member of the Eugens plauson and is in his senior year. elevated. He has not only an excellent athlete but also a brilliant student, having stood first in his classes during his freshman and sophomore years, and captured every oratorical prize he has used for vuring the past two years. He has a good voice and takes humor parts in the Y. M. C. A. meetings. His father is a minister of Summerville, N.J. There are many rumors abroad as to the real causing of the casual slump. Howard's football team was a season Some have been prone to put it "on the war," others say that the old regulars have graduated or drilled which all others claim they are simply preparing superior teams that could defeat Howard at her best. The latest "stuff" however is to the effect that the men on the team and Coach Beckett do not seem to "weep," the men claiming that their Coach hasn't a sufficient working knowledge of the game to bring out the best that there is in the men and that before they will travel) or play with a "nail" worked" team they would rather withdraw altogether. Whatever may or may not be the difficulty, Howard certainly seems to be in for a good drubbing at the hands of Union today unless something startling and absolutely unlooked for turns up. Last Thursday marked the end of professional positism in New York the law prohibiting boxing contests having gone into effect on that day. The boxing fans of Gotham who have spent so many of their nights at the ringside will now have to look elsewhere for their favorite sport, for the Knight of the padded mit is no longer a shining star in dear old Amsterdam. A bill is introduced in the New York Legislature however, to bring the sport back into its own. Dear old Pimlico is closed once more. Some of the boys are counting up their winners others are making out a balance sheet while still others are wondering why they were so foolish as to be on So Long Letty and a host of other "also rans." --- Dunbar High School of Washington and the Howard Prep team played a tie game last Thursday in Washington. Both teams were fast and the unusual alertness of both sides prevented any scoring. MORGAN VS. H. S. TODAY MORGAN VS. H. S. TODAY Everybody, out to day. Morgan and High School clash on the gridiron at Ortega Park at 2 o'clock. A rolling good game is looked for. Coach Booker has been working hard to whip his boys into shape for the contest and confidently declares the game is practically summed up. The High School team is not to be taken lightly, however, and will doubles give a good account of itself. Its victory over Armstrong a few weeks ago just being sufficient to put blood in the eyes of every member of the team Morgan need not prepare for a march toward their opponent's goal such as Sherman's march to the sea. Be on time. Root for your favorite team, but above all be THERE to encourage the boys by your presence as well as your cheers. STORER AND DUNBAR TIE Harper's Ferry, W. Va. Nov. 15.—On Friday last the football ball team of Storer College journeyed to Washington to play the fast team of Dunbar High School. From a Storer point of view the game was a dismal failure. From the kick off it seemed to be merely a question of how large the score would be for it took the college team just five minutes to march the length of the field, then the fumble occurred which a speedy Dunbar man recovered and raced the length of the field for a touchdown. In line plunging, passing and every phase of modern foot ball the College outclassed their ancient rivals, but their inability to keep the ball in their possession at the crucial stages of play, cost them the game. It was expected that Storer would journey to Charleston, W. Va. to play the West Virginia Coll. Institute but was cancelled. To say that the team is disappointed puts the case mildly. The schedule for the season is full. The first team plays Manassas next week, then a Mistrong H. S., of Washington, and closes its season in Baltimore when it will match its strength with Morgan in a Thanksgiving Day classic. It was Morgan's time to go to Storer for Thanksgiving, but the College has gracefully agreed to accommodate their good Morgan friends this year, and go there. The second team has two games with the Camberburg Athletic Club, one on Thanksgiving Day and one the following week. SCHOOL NOTES The boys who are desciples of Nimrod are busy hunting the festive rabbit, parridge and "coon." There have been some catches. According to the present count there are seven sons of Storer bearing arms in defense of their country's honor and the cause of liberty. A service flag will soon adorn the chapel walls. In the recent agricultural exhibit held in the colored school Prof. Winters and the department of agriculture took five blue and three red ribbons. ANNAPOLIS HOLDS HOWARD ANNAPOLIS HOLDS HOWARD Howard and Annapolis played a goreless game on the Howard campus last Saturday afternoon before a good crowd of rookers. The Annapolis line proved a variable stumbling block in the march of the Blue and White toward a score and was well nigh impenetrable when the Washingtonians got within stricking distance of their goal. The Annapolis eleven played and ground good, but only kept from scoring by the grim determination of the Howardides that they would not be defeated by every team they met this HAMPTON 26; PETERSBURG, Dr. Chas. H. Williams On Saturday, November 10, Hampton and Petersburg met on the gridison for the first time in eleven years. Even the weather man smiled on the occasion, for there were clear skies and a day, fast field. In the "good old days" Petersburg always emerged from the conflict victors, but in Saturday's game, the worries of the Blue and White, remembering the past, paid an old debt by deflecting their opponents 25 to 6. Petersburg won the toss and received the high-off on her 29-yard line. She was unable to main first down, and was forced to kick to Hampton, who advanced the ball to her 29-yard line, but lost it on a fumble. Petersburg again was forced to punt. HAMPTON'S FIRST TOUCHDOWN On Hampton's second drive, came Disney's sensational run of 50 yards for the first touchdown, with the whole Petersburg team in pursuit. In each of the quarters Hampton carried the pligskin across for a touchdown. In the first three quarters of the game, Owl did good work for Hampton in the backfield, while Somerville did yeoman service at tackle. Near the end of the last quarter came Petersburg's long, well-executed forward pass to Jackson, which resulted in a touchdown. Both teams tried a number of forward passes, but only a few were completed. The followers of the game around Petersburg declare the game to be one of the cleanest ever witnessed on the local gridiron. It was free from roughness and disputes, and from the spectator's point of view was perfect. Petersburg 5 Hampton 25 Henderson L. E. Paxton Melton L. T. Somerville Bowling L. G. Claytorne Scott C.

FRED ASKS WILSON FOR EXEMPTION Tells President He has Tenn Teeth Missing and His Jawbone Slips One of Wear When He Runs Out of Place When He Runs. Down in Augusta, Georgia. Frederick Weaver had other things on his mind than being drafted into the service of Uncle Sam. When the Examining Board accepted him, and the District Board refused his application for exemption, Fred wrote a letter to President Wilson calling his personal attention to the case and praying to be relieved of the duty of going to war. Here are some of the reasons alleged: "I am a farmer on a farm by myself with no one to help me gather the eighteen bales of cotton besides corn and peas that this country and the allies need. "I am, not healthy enough for that business. I have consumption, am shortwinded, have a pain in my left side and under my left shoulder blade. I have ten teeth missing. My jawbone slips out of place easily when I run. I am compelled to wear eyeglasses. "I have a widowed mother to support. "I have waited a long time and am now ready to get married. "I do not know how to fight. I feel unable to fight, and I don't want to go to war, so if it is all the same to you, please notify the Board and me of the excuse, so that I can go and get married. "P. S. I forgot to say that my father died of consumption." From his letter Fred surely deserves exemption but up to this writing the said excuse has not been forthcoming from President Wilson.

Women's Department BY MARGARET BLACK THE PROSAIC POTATO The many ways of cooking potatoes would fill a cook book as it is the basis of most people's meals, perhaps some of the ways I have found may include mother or house-keeper who is tired of massed, plain bread and baked potatoes. As one woman remarked to the other day, "They save the bread, but we have them twice every day, and I am so tired of the eternal fried, boil'd or baked, boiled or fried until I don't what to do." know so. "Then have Swedish potatoes for dinner today and have a change." "What are Swedish potatoes?" she asked. "Just a baked potato stuffed. I came across the recipe some years ago and forgot all about it until my husband said, now that we have sausages for breakfast, why not stuffed potatoes, and I thought of this swedish potato dish. It makes a fine supper dish. Bake large potatoes until mealy. Cut off the top, scoop out the potato, leaving a fairly thick skin, mush the potato with butter, a little milk, pepper and salt, adding either minced boiled eggs, or any finely minced meat or sausage which happens to be on hand. I usually use sausage. refill the cases with the mixture, fasten on tops with wooden tooth-picks and set in the oven for two or three minutes or until very hot all thru, then serve. very. Dutch potatoes make another hearty dish and is fine for breakfast. Peel good sized potatoes, then cut out the center with an apple cover. Keep the cut out centers for use in a steak or to cream for breakfast, letting them stand in a bowl of cold water in the ice-box till used. Thru the center of the whole potato put a small sausage, casing; or the potatoes may be en end, and the center filled with chopped meat of the kind. Stand the prepared potatoes in a baking dish, put a skin slice of salt pork over the top of each, add a very little water to keep from burning, then bake until the potatoes are soft, basting once or twice during cooking. French potato cake is made by chopping fairly fine cold boiled potatoes, seasoning them with pepper, salt and a little onion or parsley, which ever flavor is preferred. Heat two tablespoonsful of any preferred frying medium in the skillet until it begins to smoke, then turn in the potatoes, press them down into a cake, the skillet should be of a size to hold about an inch and a half layer of the potatoes, press them down into a cake extending to the edge all around. Cook very slowly and be sure the heat is even so that all will cook of a uniform brownness. Lift up the edge now and then to ascertain the degree of brownness, and when the under surface is a golden crust, carefully turn the cake out on a heated platter and surround with parsley leaves. Another way to serve the cake is turn one half over the other, omelet fashion, using a cake turner or spatula. If the cake is to be made this way it should be made rather thinner. Scotch potato cakes require two cupfuls of freshly mashed potato, which should be very hot. Add two tablespoonful of hot milk, one tablespoonful of melted butter; one egg well beaten, yolk and white together until smooth. Add another tablespoon in square pan and let cool. When it is perfectly cold cut in squares, cont first with egg then with cracker crumbs, then with egg, or else only in flour and fry brown. These are delicious with steak or veal chops. What Can Be Done With The Remains The cheapest roast is a good thick chuck of about five or six pounds. For four people, which always insures a good piece left over. With me, a roast well done instead of rare goes farther and is relished more by the whole family. Of hashes there are two kinds, the wet which should be served on toast, and the dry which should be browned, and served in cake form or baked. Croquettes are not a lash in fancy form, are not one in sandwich or delicious browned hash with a parsley or celery garnish. For a dry hash, chop fine cold roast, boiled, fried or boiled meat, leaving in only a small bit of fat, and add one third as much mashed potatoes, one minced onion (if liked) for every two cupfuls of the other ingredients, and season to taste with salt and peper. Stir well together so there are no lumps, then either form into small cakes, or in one large cake and dry very slowly in one drippings. In a bowl and in a bread bowl, the small cakes should be browned on both sides, but the large cake can be browned and folded omelet fashion or the whole cake can be turned out brown-side up on a hot platter and garnish-GALLEY 2. ed with parsley. Cold corned beef is delicious served this way. Another way to serve a medium dry hash is to dice cold potatoes and beef, two cups of diced potatoes to one heaping cup of beef cut fine, a little onion, pepper and salt to taste, put in a hot skillet over heat until hot, over from the day before, stir until heated thru and serve with thin slices of brown or French fried toast. For a wet hash, chop whatever cold meat is on season, then add one third as much cold boiled potato which has been cut in dice and one small chopped onion. Have ready the skillet one cupful of potato water or plain boiling water, for every two cupfuls of meat and potato, and in this dissolve a tablespoonful of butter for every two cupfuls of water. When it bubbles stir in the meat and potato, and simmer for five minutes, when thicken very slightly just enough to keep from being watery and serve on slices of buttered toast. For baked hash cold veal and ham is especially savory. To two cupfuls of veal minced fine add a half cupful of minced ham, a cupful of bread crumbs that have been soaked in one cupful of boiling milk or water to which has been added a tablespoonful of butter. Mix well let cool then season to taste and one well beaten egg for the bread dish and put the mixture drizzling with butter. Bake half an hour when the top should be nice and brown, then serve at once. If you use beef leave out the ham, but add a half cupful of veal or chicken meat if you have it. Cold boiled macaroni or rice may be used instead of the bread crumbs. Hash dumpkins are fine for making a small quantity of meat go a long way. The dumping portion can be made in any preferred way, only the pastry should be made a little richer than for apple or other fruit dumplings. Prepare the hash and season in the usual way, roll out the pastry and cut in small squares, in the center of which put a large spoonful of the hash, then gather up the four corners of the dough and pinch together firmly. Put the dumplings in a baking pan, and rub the tops with melted butter; then bake to a rich brown, and at serving time decorate with sprigs of parsley. These are especially nice served with brown or milk gravy. Cold chicken or any other poultry is delicious served in this way. Any left over cold cooked fish can be used, or canned salmon, salt mackerel or cod fish, for fish hash and made in the same way you make the dry hash. Any of the exotic lunches/breakfast or squirrel dishes. Use part of your Sunday roast for any of the above dishes. Take half of the remainder and make a meat pie for dinner, or take a half of the cold left-over roast and put in a saucepan with a tablespoonful of flour and two tablespoonful of butter and brown, then add one quart of water, six small potatoes, one onion or a half cupful of celery diced (whichever preferred) and sit on the back of the range to simmer until dinner when pour over one cupful of cooked tomatoes and serve. Cut off of your left over roast, 6 or 8 slices, wrap in wax paper and lay in the ice-box until wanted for that school lunch. Are yours worn past redeeming, if so take the tops and sides and use for covers for holders to use around the stove. The kid can be covered with canton flannel, or may be used as the cover for the edge being machine stitched and a loop of brid attached by which to hang up the holder. Old Hot Water Baga May be utilized for mats to place under house plants. Cut into circular pieces and pluck them, which is likely to be moist when the plant is watered. When hot cloths are needed either for household or medicinal purposes, instead of wringing them out of boiling water, with pain to the hands and possibly slipping them off the patio, they them the steamer and thus avoid wringing entirely. A little mother who has three small children the oldest only four years old and a bottle baby of seven months told me she has solved the problem of keeping baby's milk warm over night, and saves herself from getting up during the night. She covered a hot water bottle with a bag made of heavy outing flannel, in which she put two pockets the size of baby's nursing bottle. When going to bed, she fills the nursing bottles as usual and places them in the pocket. She then fills the bag with hot water and puts it at the foot of baby's crib, covering it with a blanket. When her baby wakes in the night for his milk, it is ready for him in an instant. KITCHEN SCISSORS Have you a pair especially for kitchen use? If not visit the five and ten cent store and treat yourself to a small and a large pair. They are so useful in the kitchen and can be used for so many things. Raisins are nicer cut than chopped; grape-fruit and oranges are more easily scooped from their skins if the pith is clipped in a few places; let the morsel cut up for salad, and dough cut for noodles. Indeed the uses for kitchen scissors are innumerable. Try them and see for yourself. M. B. Charlotte Hall, Md., Nov 15—Mrs. Wheatley, of Baltimore is the guest of Rev. and Mrs. Murray.

In ancient Egypt, Spiritualism was the very foundation of the ancient religion. The Egyptians had a priest taught in it, and that the soul was purified, and the visible world is but the picture of the invisible spiritual world. Spiritualism was demonstrated and practiced through the ages. Spiritualism is not Ghost-ism; Spiritualism means to converse with unseen intelligencies and it is as an ancient as remotest antiquity. The disciples were all spiritual Paul saw a "house not made with hands eternal in the heavens. He had visions in the heavens, heard voices, spirit intelligences speaking to him out of the unseen. Read what the Bible says: Read what I have in mind concerning the 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 dom, knowledge, the health, the healing, the miracles of miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits and all other gifts." Cor. XII 1, 4, 7-10.
