351st FIELD ARTILLERY LEAVES CAMP MEADE 1.000 BALTIMORE BOYS TO MAKE NEW REGIMENT Maryland's Best. The Afro-American is the oldest, largest and newsiest weekly Newspaper in Maryland. VOL. XXVI. No 39. 351st FIELD 1 Wives, Mothers and Sw Last Day at Camp Mea and Give Them Rous Wives, Mothers and Sweethearts Spend Last Day at Camp Meade With Boys and Give Them Rousing Send-off Following close on the heels of the 368th Infantry, which left Camp Mende Wednesday at last week, the 351st Artillery left camp last Sunday and before long both of these crush regiments, which have been the pride of Baltimoreans during the last winter, will be in the front trenches in France helping to oppose the invading Bochs, who are trying their best to crush the democracy. There were scenes long to be remembered at Camp Mcade Sunday. Mothers, sisters, and sweethearts swarmed into camp early in the morning and all day long the crowd was augmented until at 4 o'clock, when the boys were ordered to "fall in" the crowd was enormous. Many little incidents, both touching and amusing were enacted. On one side one could see a brave little mother trying to keep the tears back and be brave before her soldier son, while across the war might be seen another completely away to the pent-up felling and weeping un-restrained. Throughout the whole day the artillerymen, for the most part, conducted themselves like seasoned soldiers and they left the camp with a cherry farewell to their loved ones. In a number of instances the soldier-boys left little moments with mothers and sweet-hearts to be carried home and treasured as reminders of their service to the country. A public marriage was to have been among the features but when all was in readiness the crowd got the "gout" of the bride-to-be and she would not show up. So the ceremony was called off. The 351st Artillery, who offered entirely by white men, was the particular pride of Baltimoreans because of the fact, that most of the regiment were Baltimore boys. Their progress in the dinderies were in need of care and are were treated with interest and as they progressed relatives of the boys at home were made to feel proud Make New Pile- Driving Record. Negro Crew at Hog Island Sets New World's Mark. The world's pile-driving record made at Hog Island a few weeks ago has been smashed by a Negro crew at the same yard. Edward Burrell and his crew drove 220 sixty-five land piles in 8 hours and 5 minutes. Up to that time the world's record was held by a crew of the Raymond Concrete Pile Company, headed by Captain "Bob" Sutton. Early last May Sutton and his gang drove 165 piles. The new record was made on group No. 5, shipway 46. The men started at 7 a. m. and by noon 126 piles were driven. The workers took a half hour for luncheon. Shortly after they started in again it began to rain hard. Every other man in the yard is declared to have broke on steer, but Burrell and his men, all stripped to the waist, poured many in spite of the old record was tumbled over, 170 piles having been driven in their required depth. At this point the pile drivers paused for breath and shouted with glee. Although pretty tired, they soon started in again and hustled until 4:35, when all the priring of the shipway had been driven. The winning crew were showered with congratulations by the other shipworkers.

HANDS WILL BE MISSED Second only to missing the soldier boys will be the missing of the 38th and 351st bands, which have enlisted many occasions in this city. These bands were recruited very largely from the best musicians in the city and under the efficient training of Bandmasters' A. Jack Thomas and Dorsy Rhodes, developed into the finest musical organizations at Camp Meade. Their services were in constant demand for patriotic celebrations for both white and colored to such an extent that for a while they were compelled to refuse many who applied for their services. WILL MISS LANDIN Probably more than any one person in either regiment Drummajor Landin will be missed by all Baltimore, Cump Mendle will in all probability get another colored artillery regiment, and of course another regiment of infantry will be stationed there, and in time, with the members of these units coming to our city for recreation, we will become reconciled to the loss of our love—the 368th and 351st, but nothing will ever reconcile us to the loss of our own favorite soldier who drum-mandrels us into the hearts of mourners, and the more of whose name was sufficient to draw a crowd of eager admirers. There are those in Baltimore who are willing to wager that if Landin gets a chance to swat the Kaiser on his boon with his beloved baton, it will be such a blow as will give the whole Hohenzollern family a pain in the stomach for a week, and, maybe, even end hate war.

STARLIGHT TO RUN ALL SEASON Rumors have been persistent that the Government having commanded the steamer "Starlight" excursions to Brown's Grove would be discontinued after June 28th and a number of inquiries were made at the Afro-American office during the week as to their truthfulness. Just how such a rumor was started is not known, but it can be stated upon the authority of Captain George W. Brown that there is absolutely no truth to it. "You can say for me" said Captain Brown, "that excursions will run to /brown's Grove during the entire season as heretofore, and that nothing has happened to make this impossible. I have booked dates up to late in September and had anything occurred to make it impossible for me to live up to these contracts. I would have informed the public.

MORRIS TO MAKE TOUR New York, June 20-Charles Satchell Morris Jr., colored orator, has just been elected by the citizens of Rockland county, N.

Dr. Alexander No Figurehead So Declares When He Accuses Defense Council Heads of "Pre-Arranging" Things The spectacle of Rev. Dr. William M. Alexander heatedly charged several of the Trading spirits of the colored auxiliary of the Maryland Defense Council with having a "cut-and-dried" program for which others must fall in line, was witnessed in front of Moses Hall Tuesday afternoon. The divine had attended a meeting in the hall at which it had tentatively agreed to hold the Statewide agricultural congress that the council has in contemplation in conjunction with the Colored People's Industrial and Agricultural Fair at Salisbury next September. It appears that Dr. Alexander must have objected strongly, but was outvoted. Representative citizens from Wicomico county were on hand to urge that the Defense Council unite with their people in holding the fair. Just after the meeting adjourned, Dr. Alexander approached the automobile in which Rev. Janus Gray was seated, and charged that the proceedings had been arranged in advance and that he did not care to be a mere "echo" of other folks' ideas. HIS CONTENTIONS DENIED Dr. Alexander was not set in mind by the automobile, denied that the affair had been staged in advance. He was backed up by George A. Watty, but that did not prevent Dr. Alexander from reiterating his charge with more vehemence. Following the invitation of the two men from Wicomico county that the projected Statewide agricultural congress be held in conjunction with the annual fair held by the colored people of that county, a committee, which included Rev. Ernest Lyon, A. L. Gaines and W. M. Alexander, H. Milton Gross, M. Miss Ida R. Cummings and George A. Watty, was appointed to go to Salisbury to inspect the fair grounds. Dr. Alexander, it is said, refused to be a member of that committee. When asked by representative of the Afro-American about the matter, Dr. Alexander said: "I objected to holding the Statewide agricultural congress in Salisbury, first, because it is not a central point; and second, because we should not allow the Colored Industrial Fair Association of Wicomico county to supervise the spending of the money that the State has instructed to our hands for fair and exact expenditure. While I do not question the honesty of any of the people of the fair association, I do think that the Defense Council should show that it has within itself the capability to handle any big project planned by it. "I believed then and believe now that the program to hold the congress at Salisbury had been staged in advance. I am no man for arranging a program and expecting others to agree without thinking, to my plans, and do not think others should dictate plans to me. I am willing to debate the issues, but I do not few running things according to their own ideas. I will not go to Salisbury on that committee, as I do not intend to be a figurehead." RECEPTION TO DRAFTEES Cambridge, Md., June 20—Leading women here gave a reception to the draftsmen leaving for Camp Meade: Music was furnished by the Merry Band.

PRICE $ Cents in Maryland $ Cents outside of Maryland LADE E NEW RE Large Crowds Cheer Leave Uuion Sta Others Leave F Over a thousand young men of the race chosen for army service by the selective draft left the city this week for Camp Meade. The Fourteenth ward contingent was among the first to go, leaving from Union Station Wednesday afternoon. They gathered at the division on McMechen street, a host of Friends being there to give them a sendoff. Though there were some tearful faces among the females, the boys all seemed buoyed up by the prospect of getting a swat at the Kaiser. When they entrained at Union Station and the trained choochout, they were cheered wildly. The 16th warders left Union Station Wednesday, as did also the 143 men from the 15th and the contingents from the 11th, 7th, 20th, 12th, 9th, 10th and 13th wards. They were joined by the draftees from Kent and Wicomico counties, thus swelling the number to more than 600. The West Baltimore boys went in special cars of the United Railways, and as the cars sped castaward on North avenue before reaching Charles street, they made the welkin ring with their shouts of happiness and by their singing "We're going to get the Kaiser." Crowds of their friends and relatives gathered in and around Union Station to give them a sonoff. The only accident to mar the day was the falling between the troop of Union Cale, one of the draftees, thereby causing the loss of his right leg below the ankle. Of course, it was a somewhat nondescript mass of draftees, they having been given orders to wear their old clothes, Unum Sain having brand new uniforms awaiting them at Camp Mende. They carried just enough things to make them comfortable in camp. Many packages of tobacco and cigarettes were passed to the men as they marched. All East, West and South Baltimore turned out on Friday morning of this week to see the boys off. Hooded by a band, the 56 wardens to the number of 116, stared up things as they marched toward the station. The 6th ward was behind them with 41 men, the 3rd ward with 59, the 2nd pulled up lame with two men and the 1st had none at all. The 10th and 20th, 18th, 17th and 4th wards and a hand made things lived in the West End, while Baltimore showed up with the boys from the 21st, 22nd, and 23rd wards, the last named having 43 men. The 24th ward had not a single colored draftee. The men were joined by 39 men from the 2nd district of Baltimore county and 59 from the 3rd. The train left Camden Station at 9 o'clock and was met at Relay by the 56 men from Howard county.

The above just goes to show how easy it is for your youngsters to start a little bank account. Mothers and fathers can help their children to an independent living by getting them in an independent living if they are Afros every week. With a few more lessons the Frisbies and The Bunmister it will only be a short while before the Afro will be in every home. Come in and see us about it. QUIETLY MARRIED Miss Agnes Johnson, of 1313 N.

Baptists Plan Broader Work A broader program for the Co-operative Baptist Convention was outlined with the meeting of the executive board, held at Macedonia Baptist Church Monday. The program includes the establishment on an old folks' home, the extension of the work being done at the Baptist Orphanage and more vigorous missionary activities throughout the State. A campaign to raise $1,000 will be launched immediately as a preliminary to the campaign. Rev. D. G. Mack is chairman of the executive committee, Rev. G. E. Lockhart, secretary, and Rev. W. M. Alexander, treasurer. T The action of the committee came as a result of discussions at the eighteenth annual session of the convention at Union Baptist Church, West Point, last week. A broadened of activities was urged by President P. Carter Neal in his annual address, and then News. W. M. Alexander, D. G. Mack, W. W. Allen and others seconded his suggestions. The initial session of the convention, held on Monday of last week, was devoted to the work of the B. Y, P. U. Their officers for the ensuing year will be: J. W. Davis, president; W. A. Pettigrew, William C. Hewlett, and Saddle Neal, vice presidents; Jessie Dudley, corresponding secretary; Marie J. Gross, financial secretary, and George E. Roberts, treasurer. The first speakers of the convention proper were Prof. Henry T. McDonald, of Storer College, who told of the educational needs and opportunities of the race, and Rev. C. T. Walker, the eloquent orator of Augusta, Ga., who emphasized the progress that the colored Baptists of the country are making along all lines. Rev. J. W. Widgorem preached the opening sermon. Rev. J. W. Townes, of Frederick, preached at night. The Sunday school auxiliary met Wednesday and Thursday was devoted to the work of the women's auxiliary. Both auxiliaries had good reports. The concluding sessions, held last Friday, were elevated to final reports. The absolute wining out of the saloon was argued by the committee on temperance and the report of the committee on state of country brought out the patriotic services that the Negro is rendering the country in the present crisis, but insisted that the cessation of racial discriminations would be the only real attainment in world democracy. The following officers were elected for the coming year: Revs. A. Brown, president cemeritus; P. Carter Neal, president; W. W. Allen, first vice president; C. Z. Parker, second vice president; and G. B. Lockhart, corresponding secretary, and J. Arthur Jones, corresponding secretary. Big Recaption For Rev. C. E. Stewart The pastoral reception tendered the Rev. Charles E. Stewart, of Ebenzer A. M. E. Church on Monday evening, June 17, under the auspices of the church organizations was one of the best that has ever been given in the city. The audience consisted of men and women prominent in every avocation and profession. The feeling of good fellowship that existed left no doubt as to the popularity of distinguished pastor and his capable wife who shared in the honors bestowed them by the speakers. The welcome address by Miss Ethel Johnson on behalf of the church, expressed the love and esteem of the members. Rev. A. L. Games, presiding elder of the Hagerstown district on behalf of the Baltimore Annual Conference paid a high tribute to the worth and work of Dr. Stewart; his usefulness to the community and the church. Mr. George Owens, principal of Hill Street School, curing his remarks stated that altho our distinguished guest did not wear the opulence nor the insignia of a general, he was one of the great leaders of the race. The selections by the choir, the Nightingale Quartette and the Cosmopolitan Choral Society of which Dr. Stewart is the director were excellently rendered and well received. The presentation address by Miss Gertrude Hill, touched a responsive chord when she spoke of the unselfishness and charitable work of the pastor with never a thought of self. after which Dr. and Mrs. Stewart were presented with purses amounting to $96. Mrs. Stewart was also presented with a beautiful bouquet. Dr. Stewart in response spoke feelingly of his association with the members and friends of the church since coming to the city and his many friends in all the walks of life. Mr. Jeremiah Stafford acted as master of ceremonies. Mrs. M. L. C. president. Mrs. Mary Galloway, secretary. AN ANNOUNCEMENT FROM ST. JOHN'S A. M. T. CHURCH JOHN'S A. M. E. CHURCH We are pleased to announce the cordial greeting that was given our pastor, Rev. M. H. Davis to St. John's A. M. E. Church who was appointed to succeed the late Rev. P. H. Wortham. He has taken up the work in a calm conservative and energetic manner, and indications point to a successful administration spiritually and financially. The officers and membership in general are becoming pleased and fondly attached to him, and feel that he is the right man in the right place. He comes to us recommended by the Bishop as a well trained, efficient and successful pastor, and we take these means of publicly expressing our appreciation of his services thus far rendered, and have the hope that he will do much good for the church and the public at large.

LIBERIAN PACIFICISM If it is true that "the meek shall inherit the earth," then a goo dpar of the globe will one day belong to Liberia. The little West African republic declined recent offers of France and America to supply coast defense guns and equipment to make a fortified port of Monrovia, the capital. Since Monrovia was shelled by a German submarine, which destroyed the wireless plant and a part of the town, friendly European countries and America offered their help to prevent future attacks. On the theory that fortifications only serve to attract attacks from the enemy and that the county in its present unfortified condition under the Hague provisions and international law is exempt from enemy bombardment, Liberia has refused all offers of war material. There is not very much difference between Liberia's action now and the tendency of certain political parties of the United States before the war. President Taft and others preached disarmament and pacificism while England, France Germany and various European powers were creating larger standing armies and building war vessels. Everybody knows what this lack of preparedness meant for our country, and what it has meant for Belgium. Switzerland and Holland are not overrun by Germany because they are prepared. Liberia is isolated, it is true, so the United States thought itself, until it found differently. Liberia thinks it can depend upon foreign nations to observe international law and the Hague provisions. So did this country at the beginning, but we have learned differently now. Germany started it, but there is not a single nation now fighting that has not broken both international law and the Hague provisions. Until Liberia arms itself, it cannot expect to be safe against foreign nations. The United States can give the little republic a page from its book of expirences. ON FEET How many inches to a foot? To some more than others, witness the fact that the Government has placed a consignment of lasts with a shoe and leather company of Indiana to make shoes from sizes $8\frac{1}{2}$ to 15. Size 10 is a "tolerable" bit foot that requires so much shoe leather, but there is another more than the usual 12 inches to the foot. The popular mind is inclined to laugh at the notion of a foot that requires so muchshoe leather, but there is another side to the matter. You can imagine the individual who requires the large size shoe enjoying the laugh when he hears the average person complain of tired feet from just walking down town and back. The laugh of this big footed, comfortably shod person must become uproarious when he notes the druggists large trade in corn plasters and foot powders or the prosperity of the chiropodist, who owes his calling chiefly to the fact that it is fashionable o have a small foot, and we therefore buy our shoes a half to a whole size too small. The facetious individual who opines that there is a shortage of leather because colored folk, who have never been well shod, are being drafted and now require extra large shoes, has his "shoe on the wrong foot." In fact, this is not where "the shoe pinches." Any shortage that exists is only due to the fact that fashionable folk must have several pairs of tootight shoes in their wardrobes in order to be able to "rest their feet," as they say, but really when two pairs of comfortable shoes would be aplenty. Putting a great big man in undersized shoes is like putting a freight/car load on a Ford automobile—it can be done, but to get anywhere, we need to change cars rather often. The House of Representatives cut down the appropriation for the Committee on Public Information from two million to one million dollars. George Creel has been busy this past week explaining to Congress that his bureau was not one of public mis-information. A sample of the kind of statements issued by Creel's committee is the following on "The Negro and the War:" "The United States draws no color-line in the Army and Navy." What was meant was that the government summons both white and colored alike in the draft. President Wilson is behind the Committee on Public Information and were it not for him Congress would put the taboo on mis-informing the public. The new Fifteenth New York National Guards are not filling up very rapidly. A delegation of colored men told Governor Whitman to guarantee colored officers from colonel down, and he would see the ranks fill up in a hurry. Why not, Governor Whitman? The Little Rock Arkansas Gazette, pointing an accusing finger at Georgia, suggests "If the people of this country actually demand lynching as a diversion, let's try lynching a number of the lynchers." Georgia is so rotten that the state is getting on the nerves of her white Southern neighbor. WASH WOMAN'S LEAGUE.

Mobile couldn't, and so the Ku Klux got into operation with the result that the foundation of the Washwomans' League has been put off indefinitely. The International News Service wrote into one of its dispatches that seven German dogs were captured by a "wise darkey." The story ran that the "wise darkey" killed a fox and crawled with it across. No Man's Land to the German trenches. Coming back he dragged the dead fox on the ground in order to leave a scent. The German dogs picked up the trail next day and were captured without trouble. The story is all right—all but the Southern flavor. ```markdown ``` Continued from Page 1 James Bailey, Howard Boote, Boston Stunback, Washington Holmes, George Wooden, Vermont Williams, George Taylor, Charles Waters, J.

Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War, to the effect that the "constant efforts" of this most efficient organization, "in behalf of the soldiers and sailors on duty in the armed service of the United States, both in this country and in Europe, are rendered to white and colored officers and enlisted men alike without distinction," is undoubtedly true, and the wide spread knowledge of that fact will unquestionably deepen and intensify the interest of colored men and women all over the country, who have been all along and are still in full accord with the aims of the Red Cross Society, and who have manifested their sympathy and cooperation by generous contributions and subscriptions to the Funds asked by the Society to carry on its good It is indeed gratifying to know just what the Red Cross has done and is doing and will do to supply the needs of the thousands of colored soldiers now in, and who shall yet enter the service of our country to win in war for Democracy and liberty, and in war its work the Red Cross is rendering the same service to colored men that it is to white—that distinction whatever is more because of the color of white—and the same service is rendered to the families of colored and white soldiers alike. This is as it should be, and the fact that the knowledge of this, from now on will be most widely disseminated, will give greater confidence and call forth a more generous response from all people to any future calls made by this Society. But there is still a question which gives a great many colored people no little concern, and it is—Why is it that colored Red Cross nurses are not used by the Society? There are many thoroughly qualified, competent and efficient colored women who have made known their readiness and willingness to serve in the capacity of nurses in military hospitals here home and over the sea. Why should nurses not be accepted and they used to help win this warful war for our country and the Allies in the way that they can best do their share? Certainly there would be no objection on the part of colored soldiers and sailors to receiving their ministrations, and we doubt that there would be any on the part of the whites. We do know that many trained women of color are used in white families, even in the South as such, and we cannot understand why the American Red Cross should offer the opportunity to supply the demand for more trained nurses by making use of these colored women so well equipped to render the help needed. If through Mr. Scott the attention of the War Department may be called and given to this question of the use of colored Red Cross nurses, and such action secured as will satisfy the wish of these women to serve their country in the way, for which they have been trained another step will be taken in bringing to all the firm conviction that we are in this war for humanity for world democracy and liberty, and that we are willing and ready to accord all the fullest privileges, and the largest opportunity for rendering, and enjoying the best services for God and humanity. The Appropriation of The Rockefeller Foundation to Troop Welfare and The Rockefeller foundation has recently announced appropriations amounting to sixty thousand dollars for the purposes named in this caption. This so far as we know and have heard, is the largest amount appropriated for the advanced welfare of colored soldiers. Twenty-five thousand dollars of the appropriation is donated as an initial step in making or giving a demonstration of a suitable plan for the proper care and entertainment of colored troops in war contuments or communities, and upon the adoption of a plan determined to be the best and most practical and other appropriations will be made to further and carry out the plan, and it is expected that additional support will come from the communities adjacent to the war camps where the plan is worked. Thirty-five thousand of the sixty X. M. C. A. TO HOLD The Y. M. C. A. may hold patriotic services in their unfinished building July 4th at 5 p. m. Many members and friends are asking how goes the work? This meeting will offer an opportunity to any such person, besides it will give the contributors and the prospective givers a chance to see what is being done by citizens of Baltimore an opportunity to be patriotic and loyal and n a place that will soon be dedicated to the youth of the city. A committee is working out the plan and program which in all probability will be published in the next issue of this paper. BESINESS MEN TALK.

Jackson of 1420 McElderry street, announce the marriage of their daughter, Alma B. to; Mr. Clarence E. Brown, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Edward Brown. thousand appropriated is designated to be used, "to make possible an adequate demonstration of the application of a program or social hygiene in a typical war camp community. The reason given for the donation of thirty-five thousand dollars is end that is "while plans have been evolved in the war community, no carefully developed program has been out. We are confident that with the means at hand, made so by the liberal donation of the Rockteller Foundation, the Commission on Training Camps Activities, with the cooperation of the war camp community work in camps, such an illustration will be made as is contemplated, and a plan adopted and executed that result in the attainment of the end desired. Who doubts that this war after all will bring many closer together in their sympathies and activities, and after the spirit of humanitarianism, and deepen the conviction and feeling of brotherhood? Great Patriotic Demonstration. In Wilmington, Delaware last Friday night more than 5,000 colored people of that city participated in a great patriotic parade which was reviewed by many persons of prominence including representative women citizens of Wilmington and the State of Delaware, from a stand erected front of the Public Buildings. The Wilmington papers devoted more than two columns of space to the account of the parade. All the expenses of the great demonstrations were met by the colored citizens. The idea giving such a patriotic demonstration by the colored citizens or Wilmington, Del, originated with Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson, for merely the wife of our jumented poet, Paul Lawrence Dunbar, with her cooperation that it was successfully pulled off. Everywhere and on all occasions the colored people are given marked evidence of their patriotism and loyalty, and every time it of their own volition. So deep is our patriotism and so sincere is our loyalty that we need no spur to evidence it, but seize every opportunity to show, to the world that we are true, loyal-trusted, devoted American citizens with ourselves and our all pledged and consecrated to our country's defense, honor and preservation. SHARP ST. MEM. M. E. CHURCH'S SUCCESSFUL. RALLY Rev M. J. Naylor, the efficient pastor of this historic church so dear to all Baltimoreans, the members and congregation are to be congratulated over the result of the financial rally for the mortgage indebtedness of the church which was made on Sunday, June the 9th and reported last Sunday, June 16th, 1918. The amount collected was something over two thousand dollars and with that paid the indebtedness on the property is reduced to about a similar amount which it is the purpose of the officials and members of the church to pay off before the first of January 1919 when there will follow a mortgage burning and this prominent and well beloved church of our city is the free of immeasurable. Indle will the charitable Baltimore in spice of these war times, the high cost of living, and the many demands for sacrifices that are incident thereto, are showing in a most practical way their love for and loyalty to their churches. Not only are they generously supporting their pastor and meeting the necessary expense of maintaining regular worship—but generously contributing to the mission, and paying off large church debts. And they are doing this in a spirit that is praise worthy and with an enthusiasm that is both commendable and inspiring. We are no less rejoiced over the large success attending the ministry of Rev. Naylor at Sharp St. Memorial than any of his most loyal members. He well deserves the success he is having because of his fidelity and devotion to his work and his work, in this way in holy things and to lead his people in everything that tends to human betterment and uplift. Our wish and prayer for this pastor and church is for larger success in all their work and service, and richest blessing from him who fails not to reward all His faithful servants.

C., June 17—Life insurance from every angle was discussed in this city last Friday and Saturday by one of the most representative body of insurance women in the race. There were in attendance over 150 men and women from Maryland, Dis- South Carolina, Virginia, North and occasion was the annual conference the superintendents and officers of the North Carolina state and Provident Association, the largest Negro insurance group in the world. nce concern is the outcome result obtained by the masterly management of this company reveals that its ability to recognize ability in the business of activities it so that it can be involved in its being splendidly accounted by it were among the outstanding-features of this conference. The representatives of the company are thorough going business people and are aware of not experiencing the methods of agents who often were not cogizant of what ethics meant in the business world, some years ago. That means that the Negro people that pays well for Victorian people will succeed. The principal speakers at the conference were C. C. Spaulding, president and general manager, insurance genius and author to every detail; A. M. Moore, treasurer and medical director; John Merrick, founder and president; J. M. Avery, assistant general manager; E. R. Merrick, secretary. "The Durham Sun" one of the leading evening editions of North Carolina in an editorial on this conference, in part said: "The officers of the N. C. Mutual and Provident Association, with their great number of agents and representatives, represent the highest type of administrative and executive ability of the race. They have been capable of seeing the helpless and felt affection in the light that benefits the greatest number of their people. They have demonstrated their ability as business men to do business, and they have been of untold blessings to the poorer ones of their color, by enabling them to provide and save. They have been compelled good property to back it up. The State Department, which examines its books every year, has time and time again said no business was better managed, or had a cleaner set of books—down to a penny every time. It is safe and sound as an American dolphin, and so far as possible his service such a provident company. And Durham is fortunate in having this great colored business in her gates for the benefit of the colored people everywhere, and we, today, point to this meeting of representatives with a feeling of pride for the colored man, and congratulations for what he is doing in Durham for his race." The following resolution was sent President Wilson: Durham, N. C., June 15, 1918. Hon. Woodrow Wilson. Henry Owlet Wilson, President of the United States of America. Washington, D. C. Dear Sir: The management and representatives of the North Carolina Mutual and Provident association from Maryland, Virginia, North Carolin 南 Carolina, Georgia, nationwide assembled, express their hearty endorsement of your course in conducting the war to free not only Americans, but all people from the power of the German government whose present attitude is a menace to the liberty of the free people. We pledge ourselves to urge the colored people on our districts to sacrifice to the utmost that your arms may be upheld in this great struggle or human freedom. Following the purchase of $110,000 of liberty bonds and $1,000 of war sacrifice, we are sure that our further pledge you our unqualified support in your efforts to win the war for world democracy.

For others who do not know the truth and are suffering as I suffered, I wish to state that about two years I had a terrible cough, weakness and loss of flesh. Our own physician Dr. Mace attended me for some time and said I was sent to the Johns 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 only 96 lbs. Someone told me to try Dr. Campbell, the doctor at 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 change for the better immediately. Thank God am living, and on November 11th we were called at 148 lbs. We 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. Mrs. Bertha I. Smith Back Rlyer, Rosville P.

SMILE! SMILE! SMILE! The title is the heading of an article, William Frederick Bigelow in Good Housekeeping, and the article is such a good one that I will give it to you full, asweeps and mothers are not often up to the mark when we have given our only son or our husband to Uncle Sam to help win this war. We want him to go and be proud of him in his uniform and of the fact that we have some one that we can give; it is the woman that has no one to give that we should leave the crying, and even she is smiling and giving herself if she can, and if she isn't she is doing the next best at home; and I often wonder what we would do without her, as she finds time to write cheerful letters to her friends who are over there and she is the life of the meetings and the work rooms, and a welcome visitor wherever she goes, as she has found out that we can not afford to brood about the thing that we can not help, and giving as good as she gets. "Do you give us as good as you get? Does your soldier boy fill his letters with accounts of disagreeable things he is meeting, or does he cheerfully ignore them and try to make you believe that he is having the best time ever? He knows that you can do nothing to change conditions as he finds them, so in his line philosophy, why put the worrying on to you? Turn the picture around and look at the boy's side of it. You will never know the half of the things he endures; he won't tell you now, and when he comes back he will wave them aside as of no importance. As you can't help him, he can't help you. A grumbling letter, or one full of discouragement, will only make a sodier a little less efficient on his job; you will still have the home problems to tackle. The need is not so much for more otters, but for more cheerful letters, is the word that comes from the camps." The Mud-soaked" "Old Bills" of the trenches, energetically ignoring vernin, rain, and shell-fire, continue to wind up their epistles with, "Hoping this finds you in the pink as it leaves me at present," says Lieutenant Dawson. They are always in the pink for epistolary purposes, whatever the straining of the weather. We at home should be "in the pink." We should do more than "keep the home fires burning"; we should let them shine on and in, the letters that we send to camp. SPARKS Sparks, Md, June 20—The Ladies' Aid of Stephens A. M. E.

A FEW HINTS FOR YOUR WAR GARDEN In a few weeks you will be digging new potatoes. Right now is the time to make your ground pay. To each stalk of corn that has reached the height of about ten inches stick three peas around close to the stalk about two inches apart and have a crop of late peas. The corn will give the peas the amount of shade desired and you will be surprised how well they will grow and you can have peas with your late corn in September. Plant both Navy and Red Kidney beans in July between your potato rows after they are held by, and make your potato ground do double duty; they will not interfere with the potatoes. In places where you have dig the potatoes from, plant late cabbage and cannellion. Do not work your beans while wet with dew. They should not be touched when wet as it causes rust. Be sure that your plants are dry before cultivating. If you have enough beet and radish seed on hand, do not carry them over, but plant them now and have greens to cook with. Beet and radish tops are excellent greens. Sow your radish seed broadcast in your onion bed if you do not have the space to spare, and sow your beet seed in rows.

GROW LONG STRAIGHT HAIR You 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. Seebys Quinado 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, causing a natural growth of 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 Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasoap lathers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your drugstreet 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 mail them to you. Write to Seeby Drug Co., 79 East 130th street, New York City, for a sample of Quinadde, mentioning the name of this paper - Advt. HAIRDRESSER TO SOCIETY OF COURSE THERE ARE OTHERS HAIR DRESSERS..
