Representative Audience Present at Formal Opening of New Club House Last Saturday Night. That the colored people of this city are always ready to join hands with those who are endeavoring to throw around the soldiers and sailors who visit here every safeguard and opportunity for clean recreation was shown by their presence in large numbers at the opening of the War Camp Community Service Club for Colored Soldiers and Sailors at St. Mary's Hall on last Saturday night. The club was formally turned over to the soldiers and sailors by Judge Morris A. Soper, head of the War Camp Community Service in this city and was accepted on behalf of Uncle Sam's boys by Lieutenant T. M. Gregory, who is detailed to the War Department at Washington. In the absence of Bishop John Hurst chairman of the executive committee, Mr. John H. Murphy presided. Attorney Warner T. McQuinn delivered an address in which he explained the object and working of the club. Short DR. WILLIAM H.

Lines, organizer. The club contains a reading room, waiting room, reception room, lunch room and sleeping accommodations. Every Saturday night there will be entertainments of various kinds, followed by dancing in suitable auspices. Mrs. Carrington L. Davis has been By Hugh S. Fullerton Jallus Rosenwald, known as the richest Jew in Chicago, a man whose income is close to $2,000,000 a year, is going to France as a secretary of the Young Men's Christian Association. He is in New York now, his uniform with the Red Tring on the sleeve is made. In short time Rosenwald, a law firm will sit secretly in a young Men's Christian Association in somewhere in France, and Rosenwald in no way renounces or derogues from his Jewish faith. He goes because his creed now is service to country and because he believes that the Y. M. C. A. is the most efficient agency engaged in the work. For years Mr. Rosenwald has been interested in Y. M. C. A. work, but beyond building a branch of the Y. M. C. A. at his own plant for the use of his men he has given nothing to the triangle cause, excepting since the war started. Prior to that, however, he gave liberally to the Y. M. C. a branches for Negroes. The story of how he came to give in that cause illustrates his broad liberality. A plan was on foot to a Y. M. C. A. camp or hurt. He tried to promote mission work among the Negroes and the workers called upon Mr. Rosenwald, who had been in injury cause. He listened to their arguments and, with his cheery smile, said: "Gentlemen, as a Jew I am not much interested in promoting the Christian religion and further, I do not regard the plan as being very practical." Thereafter there was a belief among those who were engaged in raising money for Y. M. C. A. and religious projects that it was useless to approach Mr. Rosenwald. But a plan was broached to build a Y. M. C. A. for colored men and young men in Chicago. Some one on the committee had faith that Mr. Rosenwald might be persuaded to assist in the project. National Secretary of the Eggs, Y. M. C. A. was the field. He hoped that a fund of $75,000 or perhaps $100,000 could be raised. The committee called upon Mr. Rosenwald. He met the members with that jovial good nature and heartiness that appointed chief hostess. With her will be associated Mrs. Bessie Bradford, Mrs. Nellie Callis, Miss Lula Perkins, Mrs. Jemie Ross, Mrs. Carrie Brown, Mrs. G. C. Murphy, Mrs. Mamie Jacques, Mrs. Roberta Ole and Miss Frances Murphy. Dr. William H. Weaver, a former pastor of the Madison Street Presbyterian Church, has been selected by the executive committee as the executive secretary and this selection has been affirmed by those in charge. Dr. Weaver is known for his ability to handle men and his success is assured in his new field of labor. The executive committee follows: Bishop John Hurst, chairman; I. Grafton Brown, secretary; John H. Murphy, Warner T. McTutiam, Dean William Fickens, Mrs. D. G. Mack and Miss Mary R. Hughes. More than 40 soldiers spent Saturd day night at the club. CAPTAIN COATES DISMISSED Washington, July 25.—President Wilson has approved the sentence imposed by a court-martial at Camp Mende on Captain Springs E. C. Boutes, of the 368th Infantry, Captain Coates was fined $500, sentenced to the United States Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth, for one year and dismissed from the service. He was found guilty of fraudulently converting to his own uses moneys belonging to his company's funds. Captain Coates Baltimore Man Captain Springs B. Coates is well known in this city, being the only Baltimore man to receive a captain's commission at Fort DesMoines Officers Training School last October. He was an old army man having been in the regular army for a number of years. When the officers' training school was started in DesMoines last summer, he was 'detached from his company, with a number of other regular army sergeants, and because of superior ability secured a captain's commission. When the camp closed he returned to his home in this city and spent several weeks with his wife and son before being ordered to Camp Mende. The company, over which Captain Coates had command, was cracked up to be one of the best in the contentment, and he was extremely popular with his men. General regret has been expressed on all sides that Captain Coates should have allowed himself to become involved in questionable dealings with the finances of his company. He had been a member of the army for over 20 years and with about two more enlistments would have been entitled to retirement with the rank of a Major. marks all his dealings with men and he listened to their arguments. The General Secretary has told me that he hoped to get $5,000. Finally Mr. Rosenwald interrupted. "Gentlemen," he said, "I'll make you an offer. You raise $100,000 to build a Y. M. C. A. for Negroes and I'll give you $100,000 more." The committee sat as if stunned. "Did that take your breath away?" he asked, laughing at their expression. "Then I'll go further. I will give $30,000 to any town or city in America that will raise $100,000 for a Negro Y. M. C. A." "Mr. Rosenwald," said the National Secretary. "That offer may cost you millions of dollars." "I hope it does," said Rosenwald, laughing. The following evening there was a dinner at Rosenwald's country mansion overlooking Lake Michigan. At the table were the Negroes engaged in the work and Mr. Rosenwald's family, including his aged mother. The talk was of the gift and the work in hand. Mr. Rosenwald's mother has the distinction of having, one of the most devoted sons in the world, and to her he gives credit for the great part of his success in life. She listened as if not quite understanding. Until her son amassed wealth she was compelled to exercise sirtie economy that her family might not want comforts. There was no money for luxuries then, and the idea of giving away millions was new and perhaps startling to her as it is to us. Somehow the idea persisted in her mind that the gift was not a free offering, a voluntary act, and she inquired: "Julius, what made you give this?" "Mother, I know of no race today so oppressed the Negro." A solemn silence followed. The two Negroes at the table felt it, perhaps more than the others. Then Mrs. Rosenwald placed her arm tenderly across her son's shoulders and, turning to the Negroes, said: "Thousands of men and women have thanked me for Julius." Mr. Rosenwald has been prominent in every charity in Chicago and in national charity work. CRITICS ARE AFTER D'BOIS Accuse Editor of Crisis of Going Over to the eConservatives on Race Question. HAS BEEN ULTRA-RADICAL All Because He Urged That Was Time To Forget Race Troubles During War. Washington, July 25 — Criticism of Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, who was recently commissioned a captain in the United States Army and assigned to the intelligence bureau, continues. He has had no more loyal supporters than some of the leading spirits in the Washington branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, but a storm of indignation broke loose when the authorities read an editorial in the John Crisis, in which he advises the colored people to forget their special grievances and unite in fighting the German foe. The editorial follows: "This is crisis of the world. For all the long years to come men will point to the year 1918 as the great Day of Decision, the day when the old decided whether it would submit to military despotism and an endless armed space—if peace it could be called—or whether they would put down the menace of German militarism and inaugurate the United States of the World. We of the colored race have no ordinary interest in the outcome. That which the German power represents today spells death to the aspirations of the darker races for equality, freedom and democracy. Let us no state. Let us, while the war lasts, forget our special grievances and our ranks shoulder to shoulder with our white fellow citizens and the allied nations that are fighting for democracy. We make no ordinary sacrifice, but we make it gladly and willingly with our eyes lifted to the At a stormy meeting of Washington members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People the sentiments expressed in the editorial were regarded as a surrender on the part of Dr. DrBois of the principles for which he and the association have been' contending. It is also said that the editorial board of the Crisis strongly objected to Dr. DuBois holding both the editorship and the army captaincy. It is also rumored that the board stipulated that if he continued to hold both positions that there must be no surrender in the cause for equal rights, for which the association primarily exists. Since he received the degree of doctor of philosophy from Harvard University in 1895 Dr. DuBois has been regarded as one of the ablest and most consistent advocates of equality for all in America. He has at all times spoken in a high and uncertain tone against discriminations based on the accident of birth of race. He was one of the strongest critics of the policy of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington regarding racial interests. He is said to have written the appeal sent to Europe a few years ago protesting against race discriminations in the United States. An able and forceful writer, he has been dreaded by those who would discriminate against the race. His out-spoken utterances have aroused some race leaders, a notable instance being an editorial that he wrote a few years ago in which the Negro newspapers were severely criticized. He is also said to have scribbled disagreement at times in the National Association regarding policies that should be instituted. Dr. DuBois strongly criticised the discharge of the 167 soldiers for alleged complicity in the shooting up of Brownsville during the Roosevelt administration. He has also strongly condemned in the Criss segregation and other anti-racial measures started at Washington during the present national administration. SCOTT HIS SPONSOR? It is said that Emmet J. Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War, strongly urged his appointment to the intelligence bureau. He is rumored to have had considerable opposition in securing the appointment, but when he insisted that the giving of a commission to Dr. DuBois was necessary to unify various elements in the race President Wilson and Secretary Baker signed the commission naming the editor and publicist. ROBINSON DIED IN FRANCE News has reached the city that Alen Robinson, a member of the 301st Stevedore Regiment, A. E. F., has died in France from disease. Robinson's last letter to his father, John J. Robinson, who resides at 1018 N. Wolfe street, was dated May 27. He stated that he liked being in France and was trying to make a man out of himself. He was born here about 20 years ago. He was educated at the old public school No. 8. Bond street and Ashland avenue. He left this city about four years ago. WITH THE BALTIMORE BOYS DOWN AT ATLANTA WITH THE BALTIMORE BOYS DOWN AT ATLANTA Atlanta, Ga., July 25—The boys from Baltimore who are in training here at Atlanta University, are making things hum and all of them are determined to make good.

This time it is the 1400 block of Argyle avenue that comes up for honors. The announcement that the 1400 block of Argyle avenue was the champion baby block in the city caused a great deal of interest and straightway blocks in which a number of children were located, began "counting up." A young ladie of the 1400 block of Argyle avenue rushed in the office of the Afro-American Tuesday and demanded that the prize now held by the 2100 block be turned over to the residents of the block in which she resided: "We have 78 little children' iour block."—Of course there, was nothing else to do and so this week the palm belongs to the happy kiddies on Argyle avenue. How long will they hold it? Who knows. Who's next? AN OPPORTUNITY FOR COLLEGE MEN TO SERVE War Department to Establish Student Army Training Corps At Leading Colleges Colored college men are urged to respond to another opportunity for national service and race advancement. By a plan of the War Department, student army training corps are to be established in all colleges of the country having a male student one hundred and sixty military age, one hundred and sixty college students of selected college students and teachers, are being held throughout the country for the preliminary training and qualification of instructors in such corps. The instruction camp for colored schools and colleges will be held August 1st to September 16th at Howard University, Washington, D. C., to which Howard, Fisk, Mehary Medical, Atlanta, Lincoln, Wilberforce, Shaw, Virginia Union, Wiley and Straight Universities, Morehouse, Talledega, Elishop, Benedict, Allen, Florida A and K, Died and Livingstone, Elishop, and Tuskegee, Hampton, and Lincoln Institutes are to send representatives—one student representative for each twenty-five, and one faculty member for each hundred of the male student enrollment. These men will be trained forty-seven days on temporary enlistment as private, during which term they will receive housing, uniforms, subsistence, equipment and instruction at government expense, with pay of a private ($30 per month) and reimbursement for transportation to and from camp at four cents per mile and upon the completion of which, they will be discharged. They will not receive commissions, but at the end of the training will be certificated as military instructors for their respective institutions in the Student ArmyTraining Corps that are to be established, under military officers in these schools. The plan of operation and the advantages are identical for all colleges and institutions of the country; and it is to be hoped that a large number of colored institutions will secure the rating for recognized military training at present enjoyed by Wilberforce alone of the colored schools. A full quota representation at the training camp will practically assure the institution so represented of the formation at the opening of the fall term of a Student Army Training unite, in which men will have the advantage combishing military training with their school work until such time as they are called into service. The advantage of this service training, and the advantage that each institution will have its quota to send to the Officers Training Camps, make it to the combined interest of the men and the institutions to have the fullest representation possible. Men from these schools should place themselves in touch with the heads of their schools for nomination to the camp, but it is advisable that they should in addition send in their names to the Committee on Military Instruction, Box 142, Howard University, Washington, D.

MUST NOT DRAW NURSES WILL AT THE COLOR LINE LAST GET CHANCE New Jersey Mayor Scores Refusal to Carry Aged Mother of Colored Soldier at Dix. WILL LOSE THEIR LICENSE Jinney drivers who try to differentiate in selecting patrons are likely to incur official antagonism if their actions are reported to Mayor Donnelly. This is demonstrated by a report made by the Chief of the Special Officers at the Clinton Street Station. A day or two ago, an aged colored lady who has her only son quarreled at Camp Dk—her contribution to America's battle for Democracy—spent at least two hours around the jinney stands at the entrance to the railroad station trying to get a seat in one of the many jinneys leaving for the cantonment. The jinney drivers did not take kindly to the old woman. She was enfeebled by age and made a poor traveling companion for the rollicking crowds that were awaiting passage to the camp. Then again she was colored and the jinney drivers did not overlook this fact nor the possibility that the trade of some bigoted and narrow racial protestors might be lost if they carried her in their car. Discouraged and armed the mother of an American soldier boy was about to take her prospective trip when the kindly-hearted officer interceded for her. His efforts were also in vain as the jinney drivers paid absolutely no attention to her. Mayor Donnelly happened to hurry towards the station to catch a train just at the moment when the Special Officer had about given up all hope of securing transportation for the aged woman. He asked the Mayer if the woman had no redress. "Take her any jitney standing here and place her in a good, comfortable seat. If a jitney man refuses the fare take his name and report him to me. Then his license won't be worth a "jitney." When asked later concerning the incident, Mayor Donnelly said that such action was inexhaustible on the part of anyone. "The jitney drivers are operating a common carrier and as such are legally obliged to accept fares from orderly and properly conducted persons, regardless of race, creed or color. "Imagine the mother of a soldier boy being discriminated against because of a fraught and selfish prejudice. If I had the name of any driver that refused this old colored lady the privilege of riding in his common carrier vehicle and sufficient proof to convict him, I would fight for the revocation of his license." NATIONAL TEACHERS TO MEET NEXT WEEK Harpers Ferry, W. Va., July 25. The National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools holds its fifteenth annual session here July 31-August 3. The program which has been issued by President Clark of Southern University, Eaton Rouge, La., and his associates, presents a wide grasp and most modern view of education. Like other educational organizations this association feels as never before the pressing necessity of their regular annual meeting. The foreword of their announcement makes the following statement: "Notwithstanding the railroad rates are higher than ever before, every teacher in the country should make a sacrifice and attend the present meeting of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools. Never before in the history of the organization has there been such demand for getting together. The necessity arises from the fact that while the war goes on the spirit of education must not only lag but must be carried forward with greater determination than ever before. Every educational organization in the country has taken this responsibility,Indiana the most effective organizations we have: the Superintendents' Division of the N. E. A.; the National Organization for the Promotion of Vocational Education and the National Educational Association proper. We must not do otherwise." The men who are on the program are the richest educators of the race, being engaged in every lin of educational endeavor. The place of meeting is near the Eastern centre, is historic and will itself be an added attraction. We urge as many Maryland teachers as can possibly do so to attend this important meeting. GEORGE B. MURPHY, President Md. Col. State Teachers' Association. War Department Orders That They Be Enlisted for Service at Cantonments and Maybe, Overseas. Washington, D. C., July 24.—The War Department authorizes the following statement from Emmett J. Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War: Orders were issued today by the War Department to the office of the Surgeon General, which will enable colored nurses who have been registered by the American Red Cross Society, to render service for their own race in the Army. Colored nurses will be assigned to the base hospitals new established at Camp Funston, Fort Killey, Kansas; Camp Grant, Rockford, IL; Camp Dodge, Des Moines, Iowa; Camp Taylor, Louisville, Ky.; Camp Sherman, Chillicothe, Ohio and Camp Dix, Wrightstown, N. J. At these camps a total of about $3,000 colored troops are stationed. General Pershing has been asked by cable whether the services of colored nurses can be utilized to advantage among the American Expeditionary Forces. P. A. L. TO OPEN STATION AT DRUID HILL PARK The Public Athletic Club will open an out-door station at Drudu Hill Park for colored boys and men beginning Monday, July 29th from 6 to 9 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The station will also be open from 2 to 6 p.m. on Sundays, at the colored Children's Playground. The games will include volley ball, ball, playground ball, doubles ball and basketball. This athletic venture in Drudu Hill Park under the P.A.L. Enroll at once. Bernard W. Webb and W. Llewellyn Wilson will be the leaders. Drummajor Battle Looking For Musicians-Men From Service Club Visit Camp Camp Meade, Md., July 25.—While most of the boys from Baltimore, who came here last year, were placed in the artillery regiment, the boys who are now located here are mostly infantrymen. They are members of the 3638 Infantry and they have declared that the regiment to which they belong will be equally as good as the 3638 Infantry. Somehow or other, the boys feel the folks at home are not taking the same interest in them that they did in the boys of the 3638 Infantry. It will be remembered that this regiment, with the famous Drummajor Landin and Engineer A. J. Thomas, were the idols of Baltimore, and were fetted on every occasion. Not only this but money in large amounts was subscribed for the benefit of the instruments of the band. In short the 3638 was the "real cheese." The Baltimore boys at camp now are badly in need of a hand. Of course they do not expect to have a drummajor to come up to Landin, but they are going to have a real live band, if the people of Baltimore and Philadelphia "come across" with the necessary cash. Right now they need $500 for band instruments and they feel if they make their wants known, the money will be forthcoming. The same regiment is short of athletic goods, especially baseball outfits. Drummunjor Grant Battle of the 808th band was in the city this week in the interest of the band. Battle, who is a Baltimorean, is looking for some good musicians to carry back with him, and he says in short order the band will aggregate fifty pieces. The bandmaster is expected to arrive at camp this week and he will immediately begin putting the boys in shape. DAITMOREANS MAKE VISIT. On Wednesday afternoon members of the executive committee of the War Camp Community Service Club came down for the purpose of informing the men of the organization of the club, and what would be expected of them when they came to Baltimore. In the addresses which were delivered the purposes of the club and its various activities. They were also given an earliest invitation to visit the club and make it their home while in the city. Prof. Wesley, who was in charge of the "F" during the absence of Dr. Cabinaz, gave the visitors a cordial welcome and led the boys in singing "John Brown's Body." The following were those in the party: Bishop John Hurst, chairmaf; Warner T. McGuinn, H. Gratton Brown, secretary; Dr. William H. Weaver, executive secretary; J.

Though the number was small the collection was very good. Many thanks to all who, helped. Sister Rose Williams, president. --- People who worked on Sunday came in for a good drubbing at the hands of Preiding Elder James G. Martin who filled the pulpit at Bachel A. M. E. Church last Sunday night. Rev. Martin declared that there was no excuse whatever for a man working on Sunday in violation of God's commands, and urged the people to take only those jobs which would permit them to worship in God's house on the Sabbath. He urged the congregation further to save their money at this time, when wages were high, and to invest at least a part of it in War Saving Stamps, and Government Liberty Bonds. He also told the people that he would invest the money that men win the war by planting back yard gardens, and utilizing ground on the various less of the city for gardening purposes. Directed by Pastor M. C. Stracham Sunday night Pastor Stracham enters upon the fourth week of his series of Lyceum and Chauquan lectures at the large canvas pavilion on Division street, between Lanvale and Lafayette Avenue. The attendance each night has been very grazing to the pastor. Of course on Sunday nights the largest audience greets the speaker. Pastor Stracham may have to secure more chairs to provide a greater living capacity than is now maintained. In listening to a sermon or public address, often, the very next day, we find it almost impossible to tell a single thing that was presented. We may however, sometimes be able to give the impression that the whole discourse made upon us; but the definite instruction is invariably lacking. Much of this embarrassment vanishes when we hear Pastor Strachan. There is something about his talks that sticks, and stays by a fellow. We receive infinitely more than a good influence. We learn something that is real and that is definable. We are happy to report it the next day, for we have certainly learned something helpful and good. Judging from the written queries passed in Greek, the question and service for this Sunday night will be intensely interesting. Bear in mind the ruling, that all queries that fail to be accompanied by the signature of the inquirer will be thrown out. The pastor bids for honest and sincere purpose only; therefore write your name to your question and the pastor will answer it. Pastor Strachan endeavors to create at his tent an atmosphere of order and reinforcement. He has eliminated the sensational and bizarre methods, and it is our loss if we fail to attend his meetings.

FRIDAY, JULY 26, 1918 PRESIDENT WILSON ABOUT TO SPEAK I am on the point of making an anti-migrant of the German, Robert Praeger, at O'Connor April is said to have disturbed Mr. Wilson very much. According to the Association of the President's friends say he regularly as a dangerous evil, but as a disgrace the nation's morale, and spread the points the United States as fighting for its untenancing its distinction at home." I appear that the President and his accession to take the view of the press of theug of white men, and that the steps taken of Justice in preventing the reoccurent event will so operate as to make the legal, even colored folk, extremely hazardous would much prefer to have President against the lynching of colored Americans word colored specifically. More color than any other and they need the prosec appeal. I was made good use of the Praeger in America, Mexico and thrust Europe to illusory the United States has. In the handist like Germany, it is not unusual America's friends as well as her enemies of annual lynchings and riots etc—the family closet. Naturally the head of the enemy begins to stir up the family thing to know that Mr. Wilson is to deal. The Afro-American will regret a family is not utilized to speak against the Americans as well as aliens. The President is on the point of making an anti-mob appeal. The lynching of the German, Robert Praeger, at Collinsville, Illinois, last April is said to have disturbed Mr. Wilson and his cabinet very much. According to the Associated Press report: "Some of the President's friends say he regards such incidents not only as a dangerous evil, but as a disgrace, because they strike at the nation's morale, and spread the propaganda which represents the United States as fighting for Democracy threw and countering its distinction at home." abroad and countenance as a witness. It begins to appear that the President and his advisors are about to commence to take the view of the press of the country on the lynching of white men, and that the steps taken by the Department of Justice in preventing the reoccurence of the Praeger incident will so operate as to make the lynching of anybody at all, even colored folk, extremely hazardous. The Afro-American would much prefer to have President Wilson take a stand against the lynching of colored Americans and to mention the word colored especifically. More colored people are lynched than any other and they need the protection of the President's appeal. the President's appeal. Germany has made good use of the Praeger incident in South America, Mexico and thrust Europe to illustrate the kind of Democracy the United States has. In the hands of a thoro propagandist like Germany, it is not unusual to expect that all of America's friends as well as her enemies now know the number of annual lynchings and riots etc—the skeleton in America's family closet. Naturally the head of the family is concerned when enemies begin to stir up the family skeleton, and it is a good thing to know that Mr. Wilson is to make an anti-mob appeal. The Afro-American will regret very much if the opportunity is not utilized to speak against the lynching of native Americans as well as aliens. RED CROSS NURSES We do not always get what we want just when we want it, and for that reason we sometime get despondent and disappointed as well. Much has been written and more has been said because the Red Cross people have not appointed any colored nurses. Word has come that the War Department, under direction of Secretary of War, through Mr. Emmett J. Scott, special assistant, has ordered that colored nurses be registered and employed by the American Red Cross Society, for services at the several cantonments, and a dispatch has been sent General Pershing in France, inquiring whether the services of colored nurses can be utilized to advantage among the American Expeditionary Forces. So we are to have colored nurses after all. always get what we want just when we reason we sometime get despondent to all. Much has been written and more of the Red Cross people have not appointed Word has come that the War Department of Secretary of War, through Mr. assistant, has ordered that colored employed by the American Red Cross the several cantonments, and a general Pershing in France, inquiring wounded nurses can be utilized to advance Expeditionary Forces.

According to a recent dispatch to the Afro-American Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, distinguished author and editor of the Crisis accepted a commission in the Intelligence Corps of the United States Army to serve in the General Staff at Washington under Major Joel E. Spingarn. Latest advices bring out the fact that Dr. DuBois was offered accommission but has not yet accepted it. He has the commission under consideration and answer is expected at an early date. answer is expected. The mere suggestion that Dr. DuBois was considering giving up his work with the Crisis and the N. A. A. C. P. brought down upon him severe criticism in many places. In fact some critics went so far as to say that any such action on the part of Dr. DuBois would represent a "flop over" from the radical agitators and protesters against race prejudice into the camp of the conservatives whose cry is:—"keep quiet, don't agitate." Food for that was found in the Crisis Editorial "Close Ranks" printed in the July number where this statement occurs: "Let us, while this war lasts, forget our special grievances and close our ranks shoulder to shoulder with our own white fellow citizens and the allied nations that are fighting for democracy. We make no ordinary sacrifice, but we make it gladly and willingly with our eyes lifted to the hills." Undue haste in forming an opinion on this matter is not only uncalled for but uncharitable. Dr. DuBois' clear thinking and unbridled utterances of a lifetime certainly show him to stand for well defined principles. Any change of occupation does not mean that he has given up the principles that he has contended for years. It may mean at the most that he has decided upon a new line of attack. It has also come to light that many friends of Dr. Du Bois are urging him to accept the commission. Among these are Major Spingarn. These friends realize that the function of agitation of the N. A. A. C. P. is sadly prescribed during these war times. The Department of Justice is enforcing strictly the espionage law and prosecuting under it all utterances in the press calculated to dampen patriotic ardor. Word has reached this city that the editor of the Crisis has been warned on several occasions for speaking out too loudly on the race question. The Crisis has a muzzle on it just as the Afro-American and all other colored newspapers. The N. A. A. C. P. can organize and on the informational side give wide publicity to lynchings, disfranchisement and other wrongs afflicting colored people, but for the period of the war it must quit igniting. It is sensible to recognize that the colored publications must leave many things unsaid until after the war. Meantime no one can afford to sit down with his hands folded and wait until it is over. In the Intelligence Corps or in some department of war work there is room and need for outstanding men like Dr. DuBois. For the present he and we have got to be quiescent even the not acquiescent in the government's program for the Negro. CLUB FOR COLORED SOLDIERS initely without the knowledge of the vaid people of this city, certainly without the War: Camp Community Service Jers, was opened in old S. Mary's Haion Ave. Saturday. A large number of Almost entirely without the knowledge of the vast majority of the colored people of this city, certainly without any fuss and feathers, the War Camp Community Service Club for Colored Soldiers, was opened in old S. Mary's Hall, Orchard St. nr. Madison Ave. Saturday. A large number of invitations had been sent out, and it was only when many of those invited had come and inspected the building was it known that such a building was in the city for the comfort of the colored soldiers and sailors. It is to be hoped that not only will the colored soldiers and sailors give this Club their full patronage, but our citizens will use every endeavor to see to it that these boys when the come to the city are made aware of this place rented and furnished especially for them. de and furnished espouses. The Army authorities are doing all in their power to surround the "Boys" with every comfort as well as caring for their morals. It is as little as we can do to assist them in this most praise-worthy object. It is the object of this Club to make it as home-like as possible for the Boys, and to throw around them every moral influence possible, but this cannot be done unless the Club has the help of our very best citizens. Not only in this line, should we do this, but wherever it is plain, to us that the morals of the soldier boys are being debased, it is not only our duty, but our pleasure as well to point out these places to the police authorities so as to break them. up. We cannot help but feel that every mother who has a son in the army is solicitous that that son shall come back home to her, if possible a better man in every way than when he left home. This the Government is striving to do; it is with the mothers, wives, sisters and sweethearts to help in this matter, and if you have no son, husband or brother make, it possible by your help to do for these boys what you would have others do for your boy if you had one. NEW DRAFT AGE LIMIT New draft regulations reduce the height minimum to five feet and the weight limit to 110 pounds. New draft regulations reduce feet, and the weight limit to 110.

At the same time Secretary Baker announces that the War Department plans the extension of the age limit so as to stand from 19 to 40 instead of 21 to 30. Only the lame, blind and deaf in the future will be exempted. This strikes the bachelor over 31 especially, and the married man whose wife is working and earning enough money to support herself when aided by $15 per month from her soldier husband's pay. And, oh boy, the married slackers, who have no children. Whether their wives are working or not, they will be forced under the new plans to shoulder a musket and get down to real help. Uncle Sam says, "its not worth while to send all boys to do the men's work." "All things come to him, who will but wait." The War Department's authorization enabling nurses enrolled in the Red Cross to enter the Army service and designating certain camp hospitals, where they will be assigned has come after many months of agitation and waiting. Very few folks have worried while they waited for the conviction is fast becoming a certainty that given the continuation of the war every possible avenue for the rending of service will be opened to all Americans white or black.

The amount realized from the sale of these stamps to children through the school surprisingly large, and much well for the deep interest taken by the teachers in the manner and their success in doing so like interest among the children of their classes. It is interesting to know, that not content with what they were able to accomplish in this direction during the school term, some of these same teachers are sacrificing a part of their vacation to continue the sale of Thrift Stamps at the various schools during the summer months. This is most commendable and praise worthy in them, and evidences that they are not only patrons and loyal to the Government, ready to give their assistance in and to every movement inaugurated and undertook of further the country's aims in these war times, and as well deeply anxious to install in the minds of the children the principles of thrift and economy and encourage them to practice saving. This Thrift Stamp Campaign means a great deal to our children in the matter of permanently fixing habits of thrift and economy and it is most gratifying to see that our teachers are availing themselves of it to accomplish this for the children. Thrift Stamp Campaign is as well identified as important for living like habits in the older folks, and anything that may be done to induce more and more of them to purchase these stamps will be helping to produce in them by this means the same much to be desired effect. We shall be glad to hear and know that some persons are as actively engaged in using the advantages of the Thrift Stamp Campaign as creativeness, habit of thrift and economy among our older folks as the teachers are among the children. Everything is to be gained by the purchase of War Saving—and Thrift Stamps—helping the Government to have at its command all the money needed to do its full share in winning the war, investing what we expend for stamps, in one of the best and safest wages, and at the same time encouraging—fixing—and fostering the light of saving. MANY ILLUSTRATE DRAFTEES FROM THE SOUTH Reports come that many of the colored men from the South called to the camps from the class from which the camps are now being filled by those who are to be trained for over sea service can neither read nor write. It is somewhat surprising that this should be so, when we remember that for nearly all the time since the emancipation, schools have been supported by Northern philanthropy and by the various church denominations for the education of our people, as well as what has been done for them through public system of education in the South. The fact that there are so many illiterates among the drafteres from the South is a severe indictment of the South for its failure to provide and afford proper educational facilities for colored children and youth. No one acquainted with school conditions among our people in the South, in so far as they are related to and are dependent upon the State's actions or provisions, but knows how inadequate they are to the needs of the people, and what displacement and difference there is between them and those made for and afforded white children. One would think that after fifty or more years enlightenment and experience as to the value of public education as a means of uplift and betterment of the people of all races and classes the South should be ready now, at least to pursue a course in its educational life that will make impossible for all the future what the drafting of men between the ages of 21 and 31 years into the service of the National Army has revealed. Certainly it is not to the credit of any State in this republic that any number of children born twenty-four years after emancipation and more than two decades after compulsion should be grown up in a republic like this to full manhood and citizenship age without being able to recite and write. We have for years cherished the hope that the South would soon come to see the value and importance of the primary and grammar school in the education of all classes and races of its population and make ample provision for the establishment and maintenance of the same, so that the colored children and youth would not be so dependent upon Northern philanthropy and the church schools to give the training usually given in schools of, these grades, and classes. But the revelation of the dredt as set in situ in the Southern states differs from Southern States disclosures that there is yet a large field and a great opportunity in the South for Northern philanthropy and missionary educational boards to do for the colored people of that section what they have been doing so generously and so well for fifty or more years. "THE CRISIS" FOR JULY This number of this most interesting magazine is especially interesting. It is the educational number. Filled with important facts regarding the schools at which many of our youth are preparing for life's work, and from which considerable number this spring and summer have come with their degrees and honors, it has as well some helpful and practical advice from the pen or its able editor. It is a true-note which the editor sounds, in what he says on "Close Ranks." We are indeed in the midst of a world crisis, and our interest in the outcome is more than ordinary. Whatever may be our grievances, the wrongs we have suffered here, the deprivations and discriminations we undergo—the United States of America is the country of us colored people. We are deeply rooted in its soil and inseparable, bound up in its life—we are satisfied with all its interests—the affect affects influences—to help or hinder its people affects—we are us alike. We have the citizen's responsibility the citizen's duty and it is only patriotic—loyal—manly that as true Americans we willingly—promptly and joyfully meet the citizens responsibility, and discharge the citizen's duty. This we are bound to do, in spite of all things—as we have ability and opportunity. And we are doing what the editor of the Crisis urges—forgetting "our specialances" and closing "ranks," "shoulder to shoulder with our own fellow white citizens and the allied nations," we are fighting for democracy and liberty"—and giving such an account of ours to in all our engagements that it will not be for a moment that when victory comes to the Axis—that the colored American did well his part in bringing about the end of German militarism. What the Editor has to say about the common school is most illuminating and helpful. He points out most clearly the function of the primary and grammar schools, and forebly presents what should not be taught or attempted to be in either and definitely sets forth what the child should be taught during these stages of its education and devotion, says on national aid—philanthropy and self help are all timely and full of wisdom and practical advice which we all will do well to heed and follow. PATRONIZING OUR COLORED BUSINESS MEN Many of our own colored citizens have launched upon different business enterprises in full expectation that they would have the encouragement and support of at least their own people who live in the vicinity or contiguous to the business which they operate, but few have received that patronage which they were justified in expecting and which if given would assure success to many struggling, failing—though enterprising colored business man. We are not contended that unmerciful merchandise should possess color—but all things being possessed we do hold that it for our interest and for race development and bottomment that we give in our trading preference—to those of our own race who handle the commodities we need or desire. We know that it is often said by some of our folks as an excuse for not patronizing colored tradesmen or merchants that, such cannot compete with other merchants in prices for goods of the same quality—and value, nevertheless we insist upon the statement that every well informed and experienced colored man or woman engaged in business is able in most cases to sell at the same prices as others, and usually purchases goods at market prices and sells according to the retail market price for the goods handled. And if perchance the price should be a half cent more on the yard or porch of our own contiguous business which ought to prompt to refer to willingly submit to the extra change than to make our purchases elsewhere. We owe something to our race—not all to ourselves and for the good of others we must sometimes deny ourselves. To the greatest success—the highest development—the surest and safest progress for our people here in this country lies in the way of our self help—or help of each other—our encouragement and support of every worthy enterprise and commendable undertaking of our fellow colored citizen, and the united effort of all to promote those interests among us that make so surely for the betterment and advancement of all. We are without both patience and respect for those would-be leaders among our people who are always talking about race development—race love and race uplift, urging other people to do what they seem never, to have say thought of doing, that is to give support and patronage to colored enterprises and to colored business men and women. We would like to see some of those by far too many drivers and directors to cease their preachments, and begin the practice of some of the many things they have urged others to do and which they have yet to take a start at doing.

NOTICE TO BARBERS A Word to my Tonsilial Brothers of Baltimore, City Having read the Barbers' Journal for the past five years I find it very helpful in giving much torsional information from all over the country and if more of our barbers would read it they would really know what is going on to their interest. There are two popular shaving emporium closing evenings at 8 o'clock, and both on Drudk Hill avenue. They only do justice to themselves but to their able assistants in giving them more daylight time—just what the government has asked all to do in these days. There thereby demonstrating your patriotic spirit and protecting yourselves economically. By closing one hour earlier you save a great deal in fuel and light. equally. White barbers close at 7—why not the colored barbers close at 8? We have since April 1st and my business has improved wonderfully. Every shorter hours now and are earning more money. Why not the barbers? Our profession is just as important as any other if we demonstrate it to the public, and this no one can deny. A hint to the wise is sufficient. Phone: Mt.

In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Seeby'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, casting a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is 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 Quinasap, Quinasap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasap 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 Quinasap, 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.—Mert 1324 DRUID HILL AVE. Try my Hair Grower and Straightner 25c. per Box.
