Colored Branch Raises Nearly One Thousand Dollars— Nearly $400 Collected by, "The Afro." The colored people of Baltimore again demonstrated their intense interest in everything necessary to the successful carrying on of the war by a hearty response to the Red Cross drive which closed this week. Their economic condition made it impossible to contribute large sums, but they showed their interest in the Red Cross work by buying buttons and window cards. Up to the present the amount received at the various booths and auxiliaries of the colored branch amounts to over a thousand dollars. This amount does not represent the entire amount contributed by the colored people of Baltimore, as many contributed at the booths in the various department stores and through other agencies. A large number of the colored members of the Red Cross upon receiving letters from the headquarters, notifying them of the drive, reported their menies there. The booth at the Afro-American office collected $15.30. Among the Red Cross workers who were stationed at the booth during the week were: Mrs. William C. McCard, Mrs. Lily Arundel, Mrs. John J. Wheeler, Mrs. Marguerite Thomas, Mrs. Moorehead, Miss 15dnn Washington, Miss F. L. Murphy and Miss Mable Bourne. A knitting machine was on exhibition at this booth and attracted wide attention.

DENTAL CHAIR FOR BANNEKER SCHOOL First School in the City to Establish a Dental Clinic—Commissioner of Heath Delivers Address. An interesting program was carried out at the Benjamin Banneker School last Thursday when a dental chair with equipment was formally presented to the school. The entrance hall, written had been ingeniously turned into an assembly room was tastefully decorated with potted plants and Japanese lanters. Just above the centre of the platform was a frame across which was placed the American flag and the flags of the Allies. This was the work of the boys of the manual training classes under the direction of Mr. Joseph Eriscoe. At the beginning of the program the frame was illuminated from the back, giving an exceedingly pretty effect. Dr. Albert Chambers member of the School Board, who was the first speaker, complimented the school for purchasing a dental chair and complete equipment through its own efforts. He said it was a revolutionary step in the annuals of public school education, and that he unreservedly praised School 113 for being the first in the city to establish such a clinic Dr. John D. Blake, Commissioner of Health, explained in a graphic way the intimate connection between physical, mental and moral fitness and the care of the teeth. Superintendent Charles J. Koch dwell upon the change of the times—how many medical ideas were being relegated to the past. H said that a few years ago it would have been impossible to give an entertainment by school children in a theater to raise money for anything connected with the schools. One would have been accused of pauperizing the schools. In thankking Mr. Dratt and the teachers for setting such a notable precedent, he said the school must care for the health of the children because a sound body is the basis of all education. After a piano selection by Miss Elinah H. Fisher, a senior pupil of the school, Dr. Richard C. Baker, president of the Maryland Dental Association, read an interesting paper bringing out the direct effect of the teeth has upon the morale of the individual, and pledged the cooperation of the colored dentists of Baltimore toward the success of the clinic. Mr. Luther C. Mitchell, in a few well chosen words formally presented the chair in the name of the Home and School League and the same was accepted for the Board of School Commissioners by the principal, Mr. Harry T. Pratt, who took occasion to thank Miss Clara M. Spielman, the school nurse, for the valuable aid she had given throughout the effort to establish the dental clinic at the school. The program which had been interspersed with music artistically rendered by members of the upper grade classes was ended with a salute to the flag by the upper grade boys and the singing of the Star-Spangled Banner. The chair and equipment occupies a room which has been changed by the boys of the manual training classes from a dusty storeroom into a cool, inviting dental parlor with green tinted walls, white woodwork and a stained floor, with modern dental equipment down to the smallest tool. MANY SPEND DECORATION DAY AT CAMP MEAD Camp Mendez, Md., May 31.—It was patriotic, though somewhat saddened throng of visitors that saw the soldier boys Decoration Day. Patriotic in that many were breaking home ties in order that loved ones may go "over there" to "get" the stormers—a project on, which the civilized world is now bending its every effort. It was sad in that some of the young men who go to France may not get back, having given up their lives in defense of their country. To some of the visitors it meant a farewell in that sons will be sent to France in a few days, and thus make room for the thousands of incoming drafts. Quite a number of the colored officer who sent to France or will leave within a short time for the field of the war. The men of the 351st Regiment of Field Artillery, which includes the Maryland contingent, and those of the 368th, were remembered by their friends, who brought those things most delightful to a soldier's heart. And it was a fond farewell, as soldier boy kissed mother, sister, wife or sweetheart, before they caught the train for home. DR. ALEXANDER IN VIRGINIA Rev. Dr. Wm. M. Alexander delivered the principal address at the Virginia. Union University, Richmond Va. Friday night, when memorial services for the late Rev. G. P. M. King, long a teacher there, were held. THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMROE, MD. FRIDAY, MAY 31, 1918. $50,000 SOCIAL CENTRE PROJECT Community Work to Be Carried On In a Large Scale in Northwest Baltimore by Dr. A.J. Mitchell Should the plans of Rev. Albert J. Mitchell carry, within the near future settlement work in Northwest Baltimore will be carried on in a large scale and $50,000 will be at his disposal with which to carry on the work. During his pastorate at Ames Memorial M. F. burch, Dr. Mitchell has been keenly interested in the social needs of the community and the present plans for this work in Northwest Baltimore have been the result of a careful study of the needs of the neighborhood. According to a survey presented to the Church Extension Board of the Methodist Episcopal church by Dr. Mitchell, there are approximately twenty-five thousand colored people in the district bounded by Fulton avenue, McCutlah street, North avenue and Lafayette avenue. In this entire district there are few institutions catering to the social needs of the people. The large number of saloon pool rooms and dining hall facilities in the district the immediate need for some contracting influence. The plans presented include the erection of a large community hatt in which the various social activities of the neighborhood may be carried on; and a day nursery for the benefit of the large number of mothers, who, in many instances, have no place to leave their children when they are compelled to go out to work. Th building will be erected on the lots owned by Ames Church at the corner of Gold and Calhoun streets. The property is now being used by the city as a school building for colored children, an annex to the Robert Brown Elliott School. An appropriation has already been made by the city for the erection of an adequate school building for this neighborhood, thus making the old building unnecessary. The appropriations of $50,000 by the thruh Extension department will come from a $15,000,000 fund which the general church is endowing to raise within the next five years for just such purposes as has been urged by Dr. Mitchell for Northwest Baltimore. The church is recognizing the need for a broader community work and seems to be getting away from the idea that the mission of the pastor simply is to teach on Sunday and hold a prayer meeting a week. There is a general feeling among the laity that this new schema will find a larger field for ministerial activity giving to him more of the responsibility for the social condition of his community. WHIST CLUB GIVES CLOSING The closing reception of the Friday Evening Whist hub was held at the Pythian astile last Friday evening. About one hundred guests were present.

Minneapolis, Minn., May 18—A proclamation has been issued by Jordan M. Morris, imperial potentate of the Imperial Council of the A. E. A. O. Nobles of the Mystic Chant of Love and South America, lifted off the annual session of that order which was to have been held in Kansas City, in August. The decision of Mr. Morris was reached after conferring with the members or his cabinet, and was caused by conditions incident to the war. The proclamation, after stating that "the great powers of the world are engaged in the most terrible war in the history of humanity," argues every Shriner "to enlist in the cause of justice, humanity and charity, and cooperate with the United States in the war of Democracy against Kaiserism." NEGRO VILLAGE IS Kansas City, Mo., May 24 — Calhoun, Okla., a mining town of 1,500, mostly Negroes, is about as patriotic as it has bought $16,000 in third Liberty Loan Bonds. This is the word that Mrs. W. H. Hollis, of Calhoun, who is visiting her, Dr. L. T. Hollis, No. 2327 Charlotte street, brings to Kansas City. Calhoun has been a frequent and generous contributor to the smokes for soldiers' fund, and has given freely to the Red Cross and other war funds. DEFENSE COUNCIL HOLDS MEETING Not only were the multifarious patriotic services recounted that the Negro is rendering the country in its efforts to help crush Germany but the fact emphasized that lynch law and other racial discriminations must cause if the colored people are to continue their efforts to aid the country in its herculean struggle by speakers at the second general conference of the colored division of the Maryland Council of Defense held at Sharp St. Memorial Church, Thursday. The speakers at the morning session included Dr Ernest Lyon, the chairman, who outlined the work being done by the division; Dr. William Pickens, who urged the abolition of class and race distinctions in this country in order that real democracy may be attained; State's Attorney Brocening, who pleaded for the extension of democratic principles to every class and race; Rev. Dr. M. J. Naylor who delivered a message to the boys "over there," and Rev. A. L. Gaines, who deferred that the ministers are the real leaders of the Negro and must be the dafteroward ones in spreading patriotic among the race. Rev. M. Alexander, who welcomed address, recapitulated the patriotic services that the men and women of the race have been rendering in State and nation. Mr. Browning, in the course of his address, rehearsed the principles for which this country had stood since its birth and asserted that Abraham Lincoln, through the abolition of slavery had made it possible for this country to enter this war for the establishment of real democracy. He declared that the outcome of the war would mean the establishment of a new freedom where justice shall prevail without regard to race or class. He pickens, in his address contended that the United States mean an equal chance for all races in church and state, education and industry, and one which will do away with all invidious distinctions. "Jesus' estimate of the individual soul is the taproot of democracy," he went on to say, "and any system which discourages the men of any race from individual achievement is no democracy. To fix the status of any soul on earth according to the physical group in which it was born is the gang spirit—the spirit which protect its own members and outlaws all others. "For real democracy the American Negro will live and die. His loyalty is always above suspicion, but his extraordinary spirit in the present war is born of his faith that on that side of the army and her Allies is the best hope for such democracy, and he welcomes, too, the opportunity to the 'Negro question' out of the narrow confines of the Southern countries of the Southern question, instead of being settled by Mississippi and South Carolina, will now seek its settlement on the battlefields of Europe." LYNCHING FLAYED. A resolution was introduced by Dr. James R. L. Diggs, in which lynching and racial discriminations were caustically criticised, and brought forth a deluge of denate. Rev. W. A. C. Hughes asserted that lynching is undermining the fine patriotism that the race has been exhibiting and said "we should hold them "there" to fight the Germans are thinking whether or not the loved ones they left behind in the Southland would be treated with the spirit with which they had engaged in their country's service. The loyal way in which the women are aiding the nation was told at the afternoon session at which Miss Ida R. Cummings, chairman of the women's auxiliary, presided. Addresses detailing the various patriotic and unselfish activities of the women were delivered by Mrs. Etta V. Leighton, of the National Security League, New York City; Mrs. A. B. Simms, who spoke on the Red Cross; Mrs. Annie Hitchens and others. The ladies had an exhibit of knitting and similar efforts for the soldiers on view in the basement of the church. At the night session, the principal address was delivered by Congressman J. harles Linticum. It was announced at the afternoon session that a recreation, rest centre and canteen for colored soldiers and seamen will be opened at 121 South man J. Charles Linticum. SERVICE FLAG PRESENTED A service flag was presented Ames Memorial M. E. Church Thursday night. Chapels Love and Woolfork, who are stationed at Camp Meade, were among the speakers. PRICE 3 Cents in Maryland 5 Cents outside of Maryland MRS. GOULD DOES NOT SHOW UP Bethel Church Packed to Doors to Hear Famous Lecturer. Co-Worker Speaks in Fully 1500 people, who had packed Bethel A. M. B. Church to the doors Thursday night, were keenly disappointed when Mrs. Howard Gould, noted New York equal suffragist and champion of fair play for the colored people, failed to appear, as had been advertised. Mr. J. H. Murphy, who presided, read a telegram, which was received a few minutes before the meeting opened, in which Mrs. Gould stated that pressing business in Washington prevented her being present, but that she would gladly speak at another date. The big audience was simply repaid, however, by the ringing address of Miss Jesse Ackerman of Chicago, a co-worker with Mrs. Gould. Then Knight, the world's champion rioter was there with his helpers, and as Chauerman Murphy introduced the men, the audience cheered wildly. The men with Mr. Knight included A. J. Brown, foreman of a construction gang, who is said to be the highest paid colored mechanic in the country; Henry Hoit, John Stewart, Clarence Engg, George White, Wm. Jones and J. Booker. Frank Jacoby, a white hull construction foreman, who was along with the champion riveter and his helpers, made a little speech in which he asserted that if anyone beat the authentic record made by Knight and his men, that they would establish another world's record. The meeting opened with a fitting invocation by Rev. C. H. Steppeau, after which "America," he met "Brown," and other stirring airs were sung. PLEAS FOR DEMOCRACY. In introducing Miss Ackerman, Dr. Brooks said that he regretted greatly Mrs. Gould's absence, but asserted that Miss Ackerman, who he met while riding in Rome with Miss Ackerman, the populace instook him for the Emperor of Abyssinia. Miss Ackerman said that the colored people had fought in every war since the Revolutionary War for the maintenance of institutions in which they did not enjoy a full share. She sold of Abraham Lincoln and of the adoption of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments in order to make hate Negro a full citizen. She drew applause when she mentioned the colored soldiers fighting in the trenches of France and told of the big space given in the newspapers a few days ago when the news was heralded of the heroic deeds of the two colored New York soldiers in lightly off twenty-four Germans. Miss Ackerman said that the slogan of the war is to make the world "safe for democracy," but that democracy must be made safe for women and the oppressed of all peoples. The war, she said, had a wonderful phase in that it showed that the great majority of the people had revolted against the aggressions of the few. A strong plea was made for woman suffrage the world over, which she declared, is coming, and she was cheered when she told of the thousands of colored women who recently attended the rally. Mrs. Could intends all over the country to organize colored people in non-partisan civile leagues, which are to work for a larger share in civile responsibility. She is one of the directors in the movement to better house the allied colored population of Washington, and that is said to have been one of the causes of her absence. Miss Ackerman told a representative of the Afro-American just before the meeting opened. Forth from Europe's war-rent sky Above the air and battle cry, Came a million shouts from a million Came a million shouts from a million lips For ships and food and men and still more ships! The babes of Belgium must not die— The submarine we must defy— We must oppose the Hun's advance And stanch the bleeding veins of big-souled France! Black men responded to the cry. Black men who dare and do and die! They built the ships to aid the light,— A sable crew led by a sable Knight! America's most loyal son Behind "the man behind the gun," With skillful hand and cheerful face. Built ships to save the men of another race. They drove the rivets in the ships With aye a prayer upon their lips: "Help us, O God of war and fate, Anew to rivet our own ship of state!" Erwin, Tennessee Compels its Entire Negro Population to Witness the Burning of One of Its Sons New, York, May 28.—John R. Shillady, on behalf of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, of which he is secretary, makes public a letter sent to Governor Tom C. Rye of Tennessee, in which Mr. Shillady repeats the text of a telegram sent by him from Washington on Wednesday night in regard to the lynching and burning of Thomas Devert at Erwin, Tenn., on Monday night. Mr. Shillady points out that the forcing of the whole Negro population of the town to line up and witness the burning of Devert's body added to the horror of lynching that of terrorizing innocent and law-abiding citizens whose only offense lies in their color. The letter follows: May 2, 1918 Hon. Tom C. Rye, Governor, Nashville, Tenn. "Dear Sir:—I wired you on May 22 from Washington as follows: "Lynching and burning of body of Thomas Devert at Erwin, Tenn., Monday night, again makes it patriotic duty of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to urge that you bring to trial in Tennessee courts lynchers who by burning of burning of Negroes caused of entreaty or unruly union of nation at this most critical time. Five out of six lynchings occurring in your state since our country entered the war have been accompanied by burnings either before or after death. This last case adds to previous horrors that of forcing the whole Negro population of Erwin to line up and witness burning of Devert's body, thus invading Crime, of an individual by terrorizing innocent law-abiding people whose only offense lies in their color. Every patriotic American must realize danger to national welfare involved in allowing lawless elements to. believe themselves about lynch and burn Negroes about fear and swift punishment. Your state cannot sit back and say as you have in the past that your laws are inadequate to punish lynchers. We implore you in the name of our common country to exhaust every resource of law, money and patriotic endeavor to stem the peril which these burnings show to be one of terrible reality. "The frequency with which men are lynched and burned in Tennessee as well as the recent lynchings in Louisiana, Mississippi and Georgia, seems to point to an epidemic of this crime. Lynching is indefensible at any time, but when the nation is at war the lynching of Negroes by whites becomes a matter of extreme danger to the country as a whole lest such outrages be regarded as an attack by the white elements of our population upon the colored. I need not point out to you the patriotic duty owed by every American in such a crisis as the country now faces. The duty and responsibility of a Governor to stop these lynchings, it seems to us, transcend every other duty which the law imposes upon him. LEAGUE PROTESTS LYNCH Boston, May 29—Aroused by the lynching of the five Negroes because of a killing episode the National Equal Rights League sent to President Wilson a telegram of protest, calling attention to the reported heirism of two colored soldiers at the front in France. The telegram read as follows: "At the very time that the Red Cross is asking every American worker to give one day's wages for its humanity work, five colored Americans are flendishly murdered by a white American mob, one of the lynched being a woman. Simultaneously General Pershing announces two colored soldier heroes victors in bloody combat over 20 Germans. France gave them the Croix de Guerre. Will you, their President recognize their heroism by publicly exerting your personal and official influence against lynching their women?" The telegram is signed, by Byron Gunner, president; William Monroe Trotter, secretary and William D. Brigham The annual commencement of Morgan College will be held at Sharp St. Memorial Church next Thursday night. The haccalaureate sermon will be delivered this Sunday at the Metropolitan "M. E. Church. About the City CELEBRATES 60th BIRTHDAY On Sunday afternoon, May 5, 1918, Mr. William H. Carroll, of 518 N. Bond street, celebrated the 60th anniversary of his birth.

RHEETTA CHECKER CHAMPION Tournament at Y. M. C. A. Attracted Much Attention In Checker Circles Probably the most interesting checker tournament ever held in this city came to a close last week when Dr. E. M. Rheapta defeated Howard E. Young in the final test, thereby gaining possession of a silver loving cup presented by Secretary Booker. Dr. Rheapta will have a hard time holding the cup, however, for he will have to win it again at the end of six months. If he wins it three times in succession it will be his for keeps. But all the checker "sharps" are indulging in predictions as to what will happen next time. Some of the best checker players in the city were in the tournament and a number of persons were attracted to the "Y" building every night. Perhaps the most interesting series was between the winner and the runner up. Young and Rheapta were pretty closely matched, and their things were matched for a decision that was reached. Draw after draw was played with no decision until at last Young was forced to yield to the almostanny position playing of his foe.

LYNCHING can be successfully conducted unless it is engaged is of the very highest, and stimulated unless the troops know that they are of the very best. If interests to risk their lives for their country that the country for which they are likely for all that they have left at home only a few days ago that the country the news of the heroic conduct of the race, and the excellent account they have little with the Huns. Being close on the heels of his heroic horrible LYNCHING OF A WOMAN, Georgia. If it should have happened no brought glory to their country and of this horrible crime, or if, perch should have been their relatives, no effect it would have upon their morals. Miching of Praeger, the German army in the country over, even the Attorney General, is being among those to raise his voice and that the people of the community lynchers to justice. As a matter of engagement in the lynching have been a Grand Jury. Up to the present Attorney General, nor no one else it has raised a voice in protest against the authorities at Washington are conditions in the southland, there is event them from raising at least a vow of contention is granted that President put a stop to lynchings a protest give the colored people to be lynch law. Should the President one way let the brave boys at the front be forced to conditions which condone the stake, it would brave their arm. Mr Bill, now in the House of Represen­tation, federal crime, should be made more permanent element, for it should be promised it to be known (as he has be wanted this bill passed, it would be saved from the disgrace of crimes, denning Germany. PORTUNITY OF THE COUNCIL OF THE RED branch of the Maryland Council of its sessions here Thursday night, the colored people of this state—the opportunity for a complete one. Not only will there be many wards will have to deal with in the White Red Cross, and other activities, the best of their present opportunities that will present themselves in the social activities; in the making and soliac activities; in the making and in stimulating the people to linear lines of human endeavor. It is much to be done yet to bring theitable development, and the oppo­nies come now to the Council of to broaden its lines, enlist every man State, and so organize that each are reached for the highest and best No war can be successfully conducted unless the morale of the troops engaged is of the very highest, and that morale cannot be stimulated unless the troops know that the conditions behind them are of the very best. If men have left families or interests to risk their lives for their country, they want to feel that the country for which they are fighting is standing solidly for all that they have left at home. It was only a few days ago that the country was thrilled with joy at the news of the heroic conduct of the colored soldiers in France, and the excellent account they gave of themselves in battle with the Huns. Following close on the heels of his heroic deed came the news of a horrible LYNCHING OF A WOMAN and several men in Georgia. If it should have happened that these colored men who brought glory to their country and themselves, had heard of this horrible crime, or if, perchance, some of these people should have been their relatives, no one can fail to see what effect it would have upon their morale in the future. The lynching of Praeger, the German alien, was denounced the country over, even the Attorney General of the United States being among those to raise his voice against it, and to demand that the people of the community take action to bring the lynchers to justice. As a matter of fact a number of those engaged in the lynching have been arrested and presented by a Grand Jury. Up to the present, as far as we know, the Attorney General, nor no one else in authority at Washington, has raised a voice in protest against the Georgia lynching. Even if the authorities at Washington are unable to cope with these conditions in the southland, there is nothing in the world to prevent them from raising at least a voice in protest. Even if the contention is granted that President Wilson is not in position to put a stop to lynchings a protest coming from him would at least give the colored people to believe that he is opposed to lynch law. Should the President of the United States, in some way let the brave boys at the front know that he was opposed to conditions which condone lynchings and burnings at the stake, it would brave their arms as nothing else could do. The Dyer Bill, now in the House of Representatives, maklynching a Federal crime, should be made more than a joke to the southern element, for it should be promptly passed. If President causes it to be known (as he has done in other cases) that he wanted this bill passed, it would be passed and country saved from the disgrace of crimes for which we are now condemning Germany. THE OPPORTUNITY OF THE COUNCIL OF DEFENSE The colored branch of the Maryland Council of Defense, which closed its sessions here Thursday night, has the greatest opportunity the colored people of this state have had for many years—the opportunity for a complete organization of the State. Not only will there be many war questions the colored people will have to deal with in the way of collecting funds, the Red Cross, and other activities, but the question of making the best of their present opportunities and opportunities that will present themselves in the future in the way of civil and social activities; in the making of a better way of civil and soliac activities; in the making of a better citizenship, and in stimulating the people to greater activities along all lines of human endeavor. There is much to be done yet to bring the race up to the highest possible development, and the opportunity to help along this line comes now to the Council of Defense. It should seek to broaden its lines, enlist every man, woman and child in the State, and so organize that each and every individual can be reached for the highest and best development of all.

We have had a number of these "benefits" recently, which so far as benefitting the object for which they were given, they were no "benefit" at all, everything being eaten up with expenses. No matter how large the crowd, the expenses always seem to exceed the income, so there is nothing left. It is about time that institutions and other interests allowing their names to be used should in some way supervise these so-called "benefits" and see to it that the proceeds are properly placed—as well as the expenses. They owe this much, at least, to the public which is so generous in its sup- It was only a few days ago that the news dispatches carried the announcement that Director General McAdoo had granted a salary increase of $300,000,000 annually to railroad employees. It is noteworthy that colored employees are to receive the same pay as whites doing similar work. That is a step toward the attainment of democracy. It is a notorious fact that colored railroad workers have been underpaid. The Georgia Railroad strike was settled after it had been agreed to retain some colored firemen at a lower wage than that paid whites. The government decree that railroad employees be paid alike is doing a praiseworthy thing and will aid in the abolition of the practice of some employers to put colored workers in the places of whites at a lower wage. That has happened in hotels, in the industries and in commercial lines, and the white workers had their racial prejudices enkindled thereby. It will be a good lesson for the country to learn and practice that a man's pay must not be reckoned by his color, but by his general fitness and efficiency. Discriminations on account of race must cease in the industries and those in pay should go also. WEEKLY VIEWS AND COMMENTS REV. WILLIAM H. WEAVER, D. D., Contributing, Editor THE NEED OF A REGREATION CENTRE FOR OUR SOLDIERS No one for a moment questions the wisdom and thoughtfulness of the Hill Avenue Branch of the Y. M. C. A. when at the temporary quarters of the Branch, Drudl Hill Avenue and McMechen street, provision was made for the convenience, comfort and night accommodation of colored soldiers visiting this city. The need for such a center was seen at once by those in charge of the Branch, and such provision as the means available would allow, were made and since the establishment of the center, hundreds of visiting soldiers from Camp Meade have utilized themselves of the center for the benefits and privileges which the Center offers and affords. But at most and best these advantages and privileges are wholly inadequate to meet present necessities and the constantly growing demands for more and larger facilities and accommodations. The Branch can accommodate over night only about twenty-five soldiers and every Saturday has to turn away twice as many applicants for whom it has and can make no provisions. The result of it is that there are hundreds of soldiers in our city every week whom there are much such and well supplied recreation center, and well supplied necessity have to seek and except recreation and accommodations wherever they may be able to find and by whomsoever they may be offered. The result growing out of this situation is that also, too many of these visiting soldiers get into places where they should not be and into influences that are not means helpful or uplifting, but rather injurious and degrading. Any one who passes through our sheets on the days when large numbers of the soldiers are on leave who is at all observant must be convinced that the provisions being made for their protection and comfortable and helpful accommodation. They could not be under no more helpful protecting and uplifting influence than our Branch of the Y. M. C. A. but it has not the facilities and means at hand to do for soldiers now what they so much need. Something should be done, and something must be done as soon as possible and practical to supply this need, if we are going to save the soldier from what we all so much dread for him, and give him opportunity for recreation, etc. with the money the could and would do this. But since it is for the present out of the power of the Branch—then why not the State Council of Decision to make the David Hill Avenue Branch Y. M. C. A. The Colored Division of the Council of Defense or through some organization or committee that will take a proper interest in and do this much needed work. We are busy at many things to help the soldier—we say, as well as to help win the war for a higher and better civilization, but in our judgment no need of these soldiers who come from the cantonments every week to visit our city is more apparent than the one we have pointed out. The most of these soldiers are from the South—Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and other states. They have no relatives and friends near to visit, and are open to every inducement had before them and to every opportunity offered—and opportunity it must be remembered is itself temptation. Certainly something may be done to better present conditions. Let those who are able to do so get busy and do something that will be worth while along this line. TO EDUCATE THE COLORED AMERICAN ON THE WAR ALMS OF THE UNITED STATES Information has come from Washington, D. C., through the office of Emmett J. Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War, that the War Department and the speaking division of the Committee on Public Information have decided to appoint a special committee of speakers, composed of leading colored men who shall seek, through public addresses to colored people, to create an opinion and sentiment among them that will be behind the national government in its prosecution of the war. It will readily admit the prowess and influence of additional public opinion in the support of any cause advocated and in the accomplishment of any end desired. And no one will for a moment question the wisdom of a proper recognition of the importance of enlightened colored public opinion as to the nation's aims in this present war, if the nation is to expect to get the heartiest, most willing and best support of the colored people of the country. While no one who knows this race of ours will question its patriotism and loyalty and its fidelity under all conditions, we can assurance nevertheless we all believe that the plainsest and most forcible presentation of the nation's aims will call forth from the American colored citizen as well as from others the most hearty and general response to the country's calls in this great crisis of our national history. We suspect that in the choice made of the speakers who are to present these atms of the nation in the war, and thereby create and concentrate colored public opinion support of the national government, the same good sense has been shown as in the decision to appoint such a committee. We are certain that colored men by reason of their relations to colored men are the most suitable to work among them and for their leadership; and therefore as such, ought to be able to bring about and make operative the desired result. There are hundreds of competent, thoroughly well qualified, and influential colored men and women who are forcible and eloquent public speakers, so that the THE AFRO-AMERICAN War Department and the Committee on Public Information need have no fear of a dearth of speakers. And we suspect that there are other patriotic citizens of color like those already selected who are as ready and willing should the departments having this matter under their charge, call for them, to render capable and efficient service. They tell us now that everything is to help win this war, and if this is so—then of course—oratory—talk has its part and place. BETHED A. M. E. CHURCH'S TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS RALYX For several weeks this historic church under the wise and successful leadership of its most efficient pastor, Rev. W. Sampson Brooks, D. D., has been conducting a vigorous campaign, in which members and friends have been vieing with each other as to who would do the most and best. The campaign ends with Sunday, June 2, 1918 and the final report will be made Monday night, June 3, 1918. Early Tuesday morning of next week all Ballimore and the membership and friends of the great African Methodist Episcopal Church all over this country will hear the results. We earnestly hope that the great result aimed at will be reached, first because the consecrated pastor and his devoted people and their royal friends have been uniting in their efforts and unstinted in their gifts—in labors they have been abundant and in sacricles great, and they deserve success. Secondly, because it is a long step towards the final goal—of freeing this church which is so dear to Ballimore, regardless of their denominational connection, from a large and most burdensome mortgage debt. Third, because it will be necessary to all of our people here and elsewhere who hear and learn of it, and increase their confidence in their ability to do large things; and fourth, because it will be to glory of Him to whose cause the church is dedicated, and will be another evidence that "the blessing of the Lord: it maketh rich"—And He freely bestows it upon the faithful, obedient, persevering—self sacrificing. NEW HOSPITAL FOR COLORED OFFICERS AND SOLDIERS This new hospital for colored officers and soldiers, is not to be provide by the national government as a separate place where colored soldiers are to be cared for, but is the effort of several colored patriotic societies in the City of Philadelphia to provide a hospital for covalent colored soldiers. These societies in connection with what is known as "The Crispus Attacks Circle for War Relief, composed of well known Negro citizens of Philadelphia, will inaugurate a campaign to raise, within the next few days, one hundred and twenty thousand dollars, the amount required to provide the property of the Philadelphia Divinity School of the Protestant Episcopal Church, located at Fifteenth street and Woodland avenue." The plan to purchase this property, it is said, originated with the "Mercy Hospital, a colored institution, located at Seventeenth and Fitzwater streets, after which the New Hospital will get its name "Mercy Hospital for Negro Soldiers and Officers." Ten thousand and dollars have already been paid on the purchase price, and Dean Hefern of the Divinity School has made the announcement that the property has been sold, and until a new building for the school is erected, classes will be held in St. Andrew's Church. This speaks well for the colored patriotic societies of the Philadelphia shows that they believe in doing something that are worth while, that they are not content with merely giving a, few pleasure entertainments and a few other little things that cost but little if any personal sacrifice, but are ready to attempt large things at great sacrifice and personal effort. The authorities of the Divinity School property evidently have confidence in the ability of color citizens who are at the head and behind the movement to put it over, since they have arranged to give up the school property at once and have provided a place for resumption of class and work. We have several patriotic, or we had several patriotic organizations here in Baltimore among our people. Can we not through and with by them do something that will count for large and lasting worth to our community to help the soldier before he goes over there, or after he returns? Philadelphia colored citizens, and patriotic societies have set us a pattern, example, after which we may well copy, and be pleased to follow. Dedicated to Our Soldier Boys By J.

There was only one condition, namely: that the actual work on the building would commence as soon as the colored citizens had paid in cash $15,000.

'IF YOU CANNOT BOOST, DON'T KNOCK. Money Must be in by July 4th MONEY MUST BE IN HAND BY JULY 4th. MONEY MUST BE IN HAND BY JULY 4th. "DO IT OR DIE" is the slogan. WHY? Mr. Pratt answers:— "Because ti will show whether or not we can be faithful to a pledge made in good faith to Mr, Julius Rosenwald, the big-hearted, brave Chicago philanthropist, and to the Central Y. M. C. A. or whether like the Hums of Europe, we think pledges are 'mere scraps of paper.'" "Because it will show whether or not, having the means to help ourselves, we prefer to sit idly, supinely by and George do it."" "Because it will show whether or not we are really, sincerely, earnestly interested in helping our boys become strong healthy, manly, resourceful men, or whether he don't care." We'll put the Y, M, C, A. Building Fund not only "over the top," but follow it up with all the reserves necessary. We'll do these things in such an exemplary way as to strengthen the confidence of other people in us, and our own confidence in ourselves, thus raising the morale of our people to the accomplishment of bigger and better things all along the line. WHY SHOULD WE DO IT? Do it not only because it is excellent business sense, but do it to help our boys grow in character and efficiency; do it because we are AMERICANS heart and soul, alive to our duties, and jealous of our opportunities. SHALL THE WORKMEN LEAVE THE BUILDING BECAUSE OF A LACK OF FUNDS? We appeal to you now, members and friends and well-wishers for aid. Our honor is at stake, our race is on trial. "DO IT OR DIE" _____ THE PLAN DAY NURSERY FRIENDS RESPOND GENEROUSLY Friends of the Day. Nursery are responding nobly to the appeal for funds with which to carry on the work, and although the campaign to raise $1500 does not officially begin before Sunday afternoon, a number of persons have already subscribed, and the amount In hand is over fifty dollars. As stated several weeks ago the Afro-American, white friends of the Nursery, have their support and in order that the work might not be scrapped or given up they became necessary to mute an appeal to the public for funds. A number of the most prominent people in the city have enlisted their names as members of the various teams and the campaign will start at Metropolitan M. E. Church Sunday afternoon, when addresses will be delivered by Rev. R. W. S. Thomas, Rev. S. M. Johnson, Dr. H. S. McCard and others.

I was sent to the John Hopkins, and they worked on me for some time and wanted me to go to Bayview, but as I got worse all the time, I said it was best to die at my own home as anywhere else. I went down until I weighed 150 pounds. Dr. Campbell, the Lung Specialist, N. Carey street, Baltimore, Md., as he was the best out on lungs. I went to him in company with my sister, weighing less than 96 lbs. He examined me and told me the truth. He put me on the Lung Base Treatment, and I started to eat. Thank God me living, and on November 17, 1917, I weighed and dip the scale at 148 lbs. No one will believe now that I ever was sick in my life. I know several others. Dr. Campbell cured of the same trouble, and those who are suffering with the same trouble should know where they can best be helped. Back River, Rosville P. O., Md.

It is the month of weddings, bridal showers, if the sweet girl graduate, of senior receptions, baccalaureate sermons, crass days and alumni banquets, and re-unions. Such a wonderful month. Hereford weddings have suggested various invariances, and all sorts of bridesmaids and matrons in theines of soft filmy fineries, and the most elaborate lay out for the bride-to-be. And for the sweet girl graduate the most wonderful gifts and the very nicest dances, trips, and the loveliest gowns with all the finest accessories. But the year we are supposed to economize, and to think of the boy at the front or who is on his way to the front; no course comes first, so also the bride and graduate are very much in evidence they are both trying to simplify things as much as possible. Gowns for both are dainty as possible. At serviceable and made with an eye to future service, and banquets and surprises are the simplest of war-time refreshments, or a buffet supper or luncheon also on the conservation basis. The editor of the "Afr" in the issue of May 10th, says "With the informal dress, why not adopt the slogan of 'walk to commencement.' There are lots of cars, and not afford to do anything else, unless we take a street car, and lots of former graduates walked because of the short distance, and even the proper patriotism, and even the proper use of have no objection to wearing ple every-day garb and walking to commencement to receive our precept piece of sheep-skin. And as for the bride, why wouldn't she be patriotic when most or them are marrying men who are serving their country and are preparing to serve her country. She wants to look as nice as possible, and her costume will be as dainty and as lovely as she can make. But it will be simply made of some inexpensive material, and she will look as sweet and dainty and as all brides look on their wedding day in their wedding costumes. Did you ever see a bride that looked any other way but lovely? Of course you didn't, and the bride of today is no different from brides of other days in the manner of looks. Think it would be safer to wait until "dilhyny beams" marching home to "become a bride" but not yet, but...? In the way of presents there is no limit to the things that one can give and be patriotic. Of course at the head stands the Liberty Bonds, War Savings Stamps, Thrift Stamps, Red Cross Membership and other things too numerous to mention. Then this is the month that every one is thinking of a vacation. But this is war time you say, and we can not afford a vacation. But you can. You can afford better to take a vaca Here's Real Food A good breakfast to start him off—milk, corn-meal mush, apple sauce. It makes him fit for school and fit for play. Milk and plenty of it, makes him grow—a quart each day if you can. But it on his cereal and in his cup. Make it into soup, puddings, or custards for him. Try the recipes on the last page and watch him smile. Whole milk is best, of course, but skim milk is good if there is a little butter in his meals. Cottage cheese is good, too. No coffee or tea—not even a taste. Leave them for the grownups. Milk, cocoon, not too strong, and fruit juices are the drinks for children, and plenty of water always. Fruit they enjoy, and they need it, too—baked apples, apple sauce, thoroughly ripe bananas, prunes, oranges, etc. Give them vegetables, fresh or canned. Plenty of fruits and vegetables tend to prevent constipation. Use proper food and do not depend upon laxatives. The youngster can't be well unless the bowels move regularly. Don't let him hurry off in the morning without attending to this duty. Other foods a child needs: Whole wheat bread, not too fresh, corn bread, well-cooked oatmeal, corn meal, rice. They help make strong boys and girls. Some fats, butter or margarine or meat fats on his bread or in gravis. An egg, perhaps, particularly if he doesn't get his full quart of milk, or he can have a little meat crush but he does not need much. Sweets are good for them—the right time. Dates, raisins, stewed fruits, simple puddings, sugar cookies, are better than candy. Give them at meal times. Between meals let them have bread and butter, a cracker, or fruit. They won't spoil the appetite, and candy will. Plan Meals Like These Here are two sets of the right kind for your youngster. Grown people will like them, too. If sometimes these soon too much work, bread and milk alone will make a good meal. BREAKFAST No. 1—Apple sauce, Oatmeal with milk, milk to drink. No. 2—Stewed prunes, cocoa (weak), toast and butter. DINNER No. 1—Stew, with carrots, potatoes and a little meat, whole wheat bread amino rice pudding, milk to drink 2—Fish, with white sauce, spin tion than not to take one. Which do you think is the better way? To afford that vacation, or to not afford one, and be so tired and worn out at the end of the summer that you can not even get the children ready for school on time, and all the fall when you should be preparing your garden truck for the winter you will be worrying over things that could have been easily done if you had afforded yourself that vacation even if it had only been a short one. We do not know what is in store for us this coming winter, and from present indications the winter of 1876 may be harder than the winter of 1917, and it will be wise to plan, by any legitimate means, to conserve one's strength, to renew one's health, and to need not necessarily mean an expensive trip a long way from home. There are many places near home where you may spend a short vacation or you really need not go away from home at all. Think of pleasure in simple ways. You can stay at home and enjoy lots of things that you have no time to enjoy now. Plan your time so as to give you the rest you really need. The time is coming when the garden you are working so hard at now will need less attention, and there are hours that you can plan for rest and enjoyment. There is that book you have been planning to read, or that piece of lace you wanted to finish, or that longed for day in the park to lunch or stroll as long as you wished to have a toot of the work at home, or a chance to loin the morning, or to pay a visit or two and many other little things that you cannot do now, because your time is this month will soon be gone and if you can an advantage now you will be able to many little pleasures that you want you could not afford. Try saving 25 cents a week from now until August and see if you won't be able to take a short trip of a week or ten days to some little place where you can rest. I don't mean a vacation of strenuous dancing, tennis, golf and entertaining or the kind of vacation that you will be as tired when you return as when you went away; but the vacation that will give you rest for a worn-out body and tired over worked nerves; a vacation where the mother need not get up until eight o'clock if she is so minded and where she does not have to plan the meals or wonder how she can get the work thru before supper time. That 25 cents a week will not much you much you say and it is not much you can get for such a small amount. It is much you pay a board bill at a fashionable place, but it will give you spending change all you need in a small village or in the country. Next year start to save in January and you will find that twenty-five cents will not only pay for a good times but will pay the board bill for a week or ten days. What with the planning of weddings, commences, vacations and other things June is really the month of the year, a very wonderful month. ach or any greens, corn bread, milk to drink. SUPPER No. 1—Cream of bean soup, crackers and jam, milk. No. 2—Baked potato, apple betty, milk. MILK-VEGETABLE SOUP 1 quart milk (skim milk may be used). 2 ½ tablespoons flour. 2 tablespoons butter or margarine or other fat. 1 teaspoon salt. 2 cups thoroughly cooked vegetable, finely chopped, mashed or put through a sieve. Spinach, peas, beans, potatoes, celery, or asparagus make good soups. Stir flour into melted fat and mix with the cold milk. Add the cooked vegetable and stir over the fire until thickened. If soup is too thick, add a little water, milk. RICE PUDDING 1 quart milk. 1-3 cup rice. 1-3 cup sugar. 1-2 cup raisins or chopped dates. 3-4 teaspoon salt. 1-8 teaspoon ground nutmeg or cinnamon. Wash the rice, mix all together, and make three hours in a very slow oven, stirring. This may be made on top of the store in a double boiler, or in a fireless cooker. Any coarse cereal may be used in place of rice. 1 ITEMS OF INTERESTS Cream that is just turning sour will whip well if mixed with a little sugar, and will not taste any different from sweet cream. When a lamp wick is a trifle tight for the tube and does not move up and down easily, pull one or two threads from one side. Enamel baths can be thoroly cleaned with a shrunnel dipped in kerosene, and should not be scrubbed with soap, as this cracks the enamel. To keep nickel and silver ornaments bright, rub with a woolen cloth saturated with ammonia. Nail holes in wood may be filled up by mixing sawdust with glue till it is the consistency of stiff paste. Press this into the holes and it will become hard like the wood. Do not ruin your silk garments by rubbing them off with a brush; it is a sure way to ruin them. Wipe off with a piece of cloth instead. FADS AND FANCIES Smocks promise to be as popular as ever, with the young girl. Made of crash or volle in bright blues or yellow, pinks or greens, the smock is finished with variegated French knots and smocking. The young girl will wear middles, as she always does in summer but this year's style demands a touch of embroidery on collar and cuffs and pockets. The extravagance of the age is nowhere more evident than in lingerie, or never was it so delicate in texture, so rich in lace and embroidery, yet it is deliciously simple. It is as to line and cut. It may be all white, but delicate pastel colors are the mode, if not in the garment in the trimmings and ribbons. The stout woman has come into her own at last. You no longer her cry it is no use to try to get anything ready made for me because I am too stout; or that all the styles are made for stender people and small people. The stout woman dresses according to fashion because current fashions are cleverly adjusted to her needs. She can wear lace, sashes, draperies and other alluring features of women—a short time ago supposed to wear. Not so long ago she was supposed to wear stripes if they were a little wide or polka dots if they were a little large; her waists had to be made plain and tight and to come over her skirt, no sashes or belts. But now—all that has changed and the woman who wears a 42 or a 46 can shop as easily as her sister who wears a 32. There are models for the short stout woman who is so short waisted and for the tall stout woman who is short waisted, and for the stout woman with a short neck, in fact it is no disadvantage to be stout these days so far as being fashionably clothed. Gone are the days of darts and staves. The new idea is looseness, soft, undeformed lines of bodice and waistline, draped sushes and sleeves. No tight fitted linings either, superfluous flesh is controlled by the correct and beautifully fitting brassiere. The goods are becoming draped over these to bring out her good points to the best advantage. The stout woman was never more at home than she is today in the soft rich fabrics that are being shown in all the shops. There is infinite value in the line of a collar for the stout woman, even in the width of a cuff, in reducing the size of a figure. Square collars are becoming to fat backs and too narrow reveres increase the apparent width of the bust. A large soft collar, weighted by a silk tassel, will often successfully disguise the curve of a too well-padded back. Learn the Art of Dressmaking LADIES' TAILORING ETC.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN CLEANING JEWELRY To clean gold and silver articles, have on hand some good castle soap, an old tooth-brush, or jeweler's brush, and a box of boxwood or other sawdust. Take a basin of warm water not too hot, and wash carefully with the brush and soap. Rinse in water, cold water and lay in the box of boxwood or sawdust, and make it very dry until dry. Rings containing gems should be removed whenever the hands are washed for common soap and water tends to impair their rustle. To clean a gold or silver chain put it into a small glass bottle with warm suds of castle soap and a little whiting. Shake well, rinse with cold water and dry in sawdust or boxwood. BETTON LOOPS Your bottom loops will be much stronger if you crochet them over with a fine crochet hook. It takes time, fine and will last three times as long. AN EMERGENCY SHELF An emergency shelf will prove a blessing to those who do not live near stores; and even those who do may find it a convenience. A good beginning for the shelf would be canned soups, fruits, and vegetables, two of each; marinade, cresse in jars, potted menus, olives, plums, sardines, crackers in boxes, waters in little boxes, popcorn in a large jar of wine, dressing and a homemade fruit cake, which will keep indefinitely if wrapped in a flannel cloth and put in a crook or tin box and kept in a dry cool place. BRUSHES When washing brushes of all kinds, add a little ammonia to the water and the best of white soap. Dry with the bristles downward, for when turned upward the water soaks into the wood and rots the bristles, and causes them to fall out.

TO GROW LONG STRAIGHT HAIR Von Need a Real Scalp Food There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Sebby's Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time. It is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, leaving a natural growth of long hair. It is also the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired. To get best results from the use of Quinade it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasapo. Quinasapo is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasapo lathers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and fuzzy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. It also substitutes, but insist, on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasapo, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your druggist or dealer does not stock these two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler or send us the price and we will mall them to you.
