The following are some of the letters received from "Our Boys," who are now in France: Dear Mamma I arrived safe after a long, uneventful, but very enjoyable trip. I am well, comfortable and contented. It is all a great experience. I have had the opportunity to observe very much since being here, both visually orally and have the much insight into the life of character of the people. My knowledge of French has been of great aid to me in this respect. Besides I have had an opportunity to interpret a good bit for the army. There is an abundance of natural beauty here, that which makes it so different to the cities. I have much pleasure as well as gained much information in talking with the people. There is a most wonderful evidence of patience, forbearance and a spirit of sacrifice everywhere which gives ardor and courage to the soldier who observes the people of France in the face of present condi- As one approaches the sphere of activities, and sees and hears for himself many things that were hazy before begin at clear up, and he really begins to understand the true meaning of the great conflict, with the heroism greatly impressed by people from what I have been able to observe of them, a fact that tends to stouten one's heart and increase his courage. You will not be able to hear from me often, but I hope that you will be patient and not worry about me. I am going to keep you committed and to meet all circumstances, and if I do, I feel that after the job is done I will come back safely to you. We must all hope for the same and wait patiently for the verdict of time. I hope that you and Virginia are both as well and stout-hearted as when we parted. You both are on my mind always and in my hope, for I feel that it is for you that I make this great sacrifice. "WE ARE IN A NEW WORLD INSTEAD OF AN OLD ONE." Dear Mother: After a wonderful voyage, we reached our destination safe and sound, and we us were a little sea stick our way, we all enjoyed the trip. Our place here is indeed very pretty and everywhere we go we are given a cordial welcome, until we are beginning to feel at home as the days go by. This is really a picturesque country, sometimes I think we are in a new world instead of an old one. Our only difficult task is to understand the people and their language. But I suppose it will not be long, as we learn a little each day. I am feeling pretty good, and I will feel fine for exceptions that we all feel fine and hearty; with a plenty of fresh air, exercise and our daily duties included. I hope you are well and enjoying the summer heat. I imagine it is very warm there. How are all the folks home. Give them all my love and best wishes. Trust me, I will also Pather. Wish I am Your son HARRY L. GILBERT Battery B. 351st Field Artillery. NO GIRLS— NO /CANDY— POOR FRANCE Dear Mother; A few lines from your son in the mountains of France. We left the last place we were after having landed from the boat last Thursday night. After traveling across the country we arrived in a people mall about 1:30 AM. Coming to this place, (I am not allowed to name it) we passed a number of small towns and villages. We also passed through some large cities. Every place we stopped, the people were very kind to us. We met a people mall with flowers, which they passed out to us. Curtains were made at certain points like the men coffee. One place where we got off the train on Sunday. I met a large number of people at Fort DesMoines. The place where my company is located is about ten miles from the road. Over here the companies are located in small separate towns. I am located in a large concrete building with a company at Fort DesMoines. The rooms are very large. The dining room where I take my meals is a large square room with fine colonial furniture, and the same with my bed which has an old-fashioned bed with a box spring and feather matting. Our men are quartered in a very old chateau. This is the prettiest country one would wish to see. There are no wooden houses here—all are made of wood. The country is a small country place. There are no girls here which seems strange for a country town. This is a hard place to buy anything. They hardly know what candy is. I suppose you have heard of the well-known German offensive of the 14th Wall. There are those continued on Pape Four. Sleep on Chairs, Floor or Walk The Streets All Night For Lack of Beds. At six o'clock last Saturday night all of the fifty beds available were taken in the War Camp Community Service Hotel for colored sailors and soldiers, located at St. Mary's Hall, Orchard street. Still the soldiers from Camp Mende, who had gotten week- and leave to visit the city, continued to pour in, and some of them would not be turned away. Thirty more of them set chairs together in the dance hall and on the stage and slept on these improvised beds. Others just stretched out on the bare floors, while still others sat up all night in chairs in front of the hotel. One hundred men who could find no accommodations at all were turned away to find some other lodging place or walk the streets. The hotel, of which Dr. Wm. I. Weaver is the executive secretary, is making strenuous efforts to house the soldiers this week-end by appealing to local citizens, especially those whose own boys are in camp or overseas, and can appreciate what it means to be a stranger in a city as large as Baltimore with no place to spend the night. The third floor of the Community Hotel could be used easily, and Dr. Weaver is soliciting the loan of cots and the names of families that will take a soldier to sleep over Sunday. Owners of cots are also asked to give their services for an hour or two Saturday and Sunday and to state how many soldier guests they can accommodate for a ride through the city or into the country. No more appreciative set of men could be found in any city than the two hundred soldiers who attended the dance at the hotel last Saturday night. This Saturday evening the entertainment by Prof. Louis E. Toomey and his Troubadours. After this will be the usual weekly dance. Sunday afternoon the club is open to the public and at 5 p. m., local talent can be to render an unusual musical program. TO COMMAND STUDENT CAMP Former 10th Cavalierman To Teach At Howard University. Washington, August 7—Lieutenant Russell Smith has been detailed as commanding officer of the Washington Student Army Training Camp just opened on the Howard University grounds. Lieutenant Smith is a native of Covington, Va., where he was reared and received a rudimentary training in the public schools. He enlisted in the 10th Cavalry, and served with Troop E of that organization thirteen years. He saw foreign service with the guild of cavalry in the Philippines and in Mexico. He attended the Reserve Officers' Training Camp at Fort Des Moines last year, receiving a commission as lieutenant. His most recent military service was at Camp Dix where he served on a detail with the 153d Depot Brigade and with a field artillery regiment at that station. His commission and assignments have been earned by diligent and meritorious service. The Student Army Training Camp at Howard is for the instruction of representatives of colored colleges throughout the land, to the number of 300, who will be given intensive training in military science and tactics for a period of forty-seven days, after which they will return to their respective institutions to train others in the work which they have learned. The training will be the formation of a student body army corps which will be advantageous to the national army when the young men are eventually called to the colors. W. H. M. S. MEETS. Richmond, Va., August 7 — The Woman's Home Missionry Society of the Washington Conference held its 18th annual meeting at Leigh Street M. E. Church July 11-14. Mrs. Fannie M. Chair, the president, presided. Delegates from Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia were present. The reports showed a splendid increase in both membership and finance. Mrs. Ida Hilton, of Baltimore, was elected a delegate to the national meeting to be held at Williamsport, Pa. The annual sermon was preached by the Rev. C. C. Gill, pastor of Leigh St. Church. Richmond. Virginia is the location of the 20th annual session of the National Medical Association, which will be held three days August 27, 28, 29. Subjects in medicine, dentistry, surgery and pharmacy will be discussed. Richmond Hospital will be the seat of the clinics and Union University the meeting place for scientific sessions. PRESIDENT PLEASED WITH CONFERENCE Washington, August 7—President Wilson is greatly pleased with the conference of colored editors and other leaders of thought and opinion among the colored citizens of the country, held a short time ago in this city. The report of the conference has been published far and wide and the proceedings have attracted a larger measure of attention than the report of any similar gathering of colored men since emancipation. In a recent letter, the Chief Executive of the Nation plainly indicates his deep interest and genuine satisfaction with the meeting and its successful outcome, as well as with the practical results that have accrued from the frank and unharmed discussion as to the 12,000,000 Negroes of the country might most effectively aid America to win this righteous war for freedom and world democracy. The President feels that the problems considered by the conference were "grave and weighty," and he is cheered by the thought that the whole state of feeling throughout the country will be helped by the broad spirit of patriotism which dominated the conferences in their calm, dignified and high-spirited deliberations. In no uncertain terms, the President warmly commends the colored representatives of the press for their timely emphasis of national unity on the vital issues involved in the struggle and applauds the success of all Americans who have at heart the welfare of the nation in its present crisis. The full text of the President's letter to the Chairman of the Conference follows: THE PRESIDENT'S LETTER The House The Senate Dear Mr. Scott; Your letter of June 26th has been called to my attention, and I am both interested and pleased with the report it gives of the meeting held in Washington by leaders of thought in the Negro citizens of the country. The problems considered by the conference of special importance to the people whom they represent, are grave and weighty and the whole state of feeling througth which they represent by the frank and calm consideration given these matters. In the meantime, it is cheering to see that the fine philosophy of democracy in the great effort of our country, was felt and expressed by these conferences as the dominating thought which ought to control all Americans in the present crisis. Cordially yours WOODHOW WILSON WOODROW WILSON. This unbridled endorsement of the colored editors' conference and sincere tribute to the loyalty of the Negro people will bear the deepest to all Americans will hearten the Negro people all over the land. The President's ringing utterance in denunciation of mob violence, the acceptance of colored nurses for war service, and a score of advantageous plans for the induction of Negro soldiers in technical schools and training camps for officers, followed close to the end of the war, of the President give ground for belief that the Negro-American is during these days of national emergency and need, coming to be recognized more and more by the general government as a factor of importance in the winning of the war. 115 OUT OF 125 TAKE "AFRO" Baltimore Blays in Training at Atlanta Glad to Get News From Atlanta, Ga., August 4—We are all well and happy. Spick and span in our new uniforms, and liked by our commanding officers, Captain R. P. Cook and Lieutenant A. Scott. In our recent examinations the different colleges have awarded fifths of the company averaged around 90 per cent, the marks of quite a few being 10. This shows that we are going to get all out of our course that there is in it. In our drill the following men have been acting as second sergeant, Joseph Hawkins; corporals: George Queen, Wallace Newton, of Myrtle avenue; Cornelius Butler, Wilbert Holland, Wm. Purnell, Otho Nash, Calvin Stewart, Ferd Fisher, Thomas Nelson, Eugene Carter, Gobert Mitchell, Gobert Macbeth, Wm Hurry, Samuel Turner and Wm. J. Green. We are all trying our hardest to make the best and get the same honors as did the men at For Desaltoines. Of course we don't expect to get commissions. However, our captain has informed us he will recommend all of us for non-commissioned officers ranking from corporal to first sergeant. We owe quite a bit of appreciation to Proof of the First Congregational Church of Atlanta, who has held services for us nearly every Sunday in the school chapel. He is assisted by the young ladies of his church. The boys are a bit home-sick even though we get good treatment. We hope to leave here the first of September for somewhere, we know the Afro. Out of the 125 men here about 115 either take the paper direct from Baltimore or buy it from the little agent, Walter Carey. News In Brief From Everywhere It used to be difficult to enlist in the British Army. Colored men were not wanted under any conditions. Times have changed now and colored men between 18 and 45 are now being urged to enlist at the British and Canadian Recruiting Mission located in New York City, or else lay themselves open to draft by the United States. Lack of funds to continue the Migrant Bureau of the State of New Jersey, which was designed to find employment for the manner of colored men coming in from Southern States, is the reason given by State Commissioner of Labor Bryant for dropping several colored employees. T. Thomas Fortune, of Trenton, receiving $60 a month as secretary; Dr. P. L. Hawkins, of Atlantic City, receiving $100 a month as medical examiner, and Julin H. Dorssey, of Atlantic City, receiving $40 a month as stenographer. Issue H. Nutter, of Atlantic City, was to have been named chief of the bureau as an annual salary of $2400, but he was never appointed. He did, however, act as the chief and gave his services to the State. --- Joseph Lyons, a Cincinnati, Ohio man employed in a roundhouse was discharged recently for insisting on blowing the whistles of several locomotives in celebration of the American victory in France. Lyons has not finished paying for his Liberty Bonds yet and is trying to get his job back. Paris, Tennessee, not France, has employed 15 colored women as engine cleaners at the round house. The women work in bloomer overalls and receive $2.17 per day. The white manager of a Salisbury, N. C. cafe refused to serve 100 white and colored wounded soldiers returning from service in France. The white colonel in charge of the men, requisitioned the cafe and called in civilians to do the waiting. The Red Cross distributed gifts without distinction. Miss Frances R. Elliott, Jackson, Tennessee, is said to be the first colored woman to enroll and be accepted as nurse in the American Red Cross. A Portuguese Negro is the captain of a large steamship which arrived at Newport News, Virginia, recently to take on supplies and munitions for the allies. It used to be said that a broken neck was sure to result fatal. Eight days ago Dr. A. M. Curtis of Freedman's Hospital reset the neck of a woman who fell from the top of a one-story building and landed squarely on her head. The patient is doing fine. After he had pleaded guilty to a charge of petty larceny in the County Court in Brooklyn yesterday, Robert Davis, alleged to have posed as Sergeant Henry Johnson of Albany, the colored soldier recently cited for conspicuous bravery in France, fell unconscious in his cell, causing cerebral amnorrhage. The petty larceny charge was lodged against Davis because he obtained $31.50 in a collection taken up after he described his "experiences going over the top" to a church audience. For saying "To hell with the American flag," Albert Thomas of New York was held under $200 bond for his appearance in court. A white soldier made the complaint, but Albert denies the charge. "Oh! Gee! Houses" is the name by which the hostess houses constructed by the Young Women's Christian Association at the 34 camps and campments have come to be known. Ohio God" was the expression used by the soldiers who first saw the interior of the Camp Kearney hostess house, which is furnished in bright California colors, and the soldiers suggested that the place be christened the "Oh! Gee! House." The nursery is the most attractive room for soldiers. They liptoe in and look admirably at the youngsters left there to rest while the mothers are out seeing their husbands. Two hostess houses are already built for colored women and more are under construction. The annual convention of the National Association of Colored Nurses will meet this year at LOUISVILLE, Ky., August 21-24. There will be discussion of matters relating to the ordinary everyday work of the profession and a rousing celebration of the opening of the cantonments to colored nurses. A Cleveland Ohio, mailcarrier hit upon a novel idea for a vacation when he resolved on "an automobile trip thru New York state using his car for sleeping and eating as well as traveling. When his wife got tired of the trip, the mail carrier sent her home by train and continued with a victoria as a companion. When last seen he was pleased with his change. You know you can shut up a victoria but, a _woman_ EIGHTEEN LYNCHED INSTEAD OF SIX Head of Unborn Babe Crushed By Cracker's Heel After Mother Has Been Dis New York, August 7—Walter F. White, one of the assistant secretaries of the N. A. A. C. P., spent four days in Georgia investigating the May lynchings. As a result of his findings the names of 17 persons who took part in the five days orgy were laid in person before the Governor of Georgia, together with a full report of which the following is a summary: "Instead of six victims of the mobs which ranged over Brooks and Lowndes counties from May 17 to 22, eleven authenticated cases were discovered during an investigation of the circum stances surrounding the white farmer, of Brooks county, Ga., and the wounding of his wife near Barney, Ga., on May 16 and the lynchings that followed. Press dispatches at the time-manned Will Head, Will Thompson, Hayes Turner, Mary Turner, his wife, Mary Turner, the latter of whom had stated before he was captured to several persons interviewed that he alone was implicated in the affair and the five who had been previously lynched (the five already named) were not involved in five additional victims (the latter of whom had been married and three undigested Negroes whose bodies were taken from the Little River just below Quitman, Georgia, about a week after they had been lynched. Negroes of the neighborhood told the investigator that there were eleven more than eleven could be authenticated. More than 50 Negroes have left the region since the outbreak, so that a number of Negroes who were sold by acquaintances to have mysteriously disappeared could not be located on where therebacks ascertained and out of touch with the land and the landings. Hundreds of acres of once productive lands are now overrun with weeds and dozens of farm houses and cabins deserted by their former occupants, despite the threats involved in the statements. The reason being to leave the region would be considered to be involved in the killing of Smith. Chime Kiley was lynched and clay turpentine cups, used to catch the gum when turpentine trees are cut, were tied to his body in the body of the River Barney, Ga. Simon Schumann was called out of his house near Berlin, Ga., on the Moultrie Road, at night and has not been seen since. The interior of the house, as well as the furniture, was completely demolished. MARY TURNER'S FATE. Mary Turner, wife of Hays Turner, was born after her Turner ascension having been lynched because of "unwise remarks," concerning the lynching of her husband, and who was approaching confinement, was tied by the ankles and hung head downward. Gasolene was taken from the automobiles of the lynching party and poured on her clothing which was then thrown over her head. After clothes and burned off she was dishewed and her unborn child fell from her womb and while still alive, was crushed by the heel of a member of the mob. The woman's body was ridded with bullets from high powered rifles until it was unrecognizable. She was buried ten feet from the tree and the head of the woman was placed in a whisker with a cigar stump in the neck of it. A photograph of the grave as described is in the possession of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People. WORK OF SECRETARY SCOTTS OFFICE INCREASING Washington, August 7—When Mr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute was called to Washington last October to serve as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, h immediately requested the Department of Commerce to release Mr. William H. Davis, who for many years had been performing stenographic and other technical work in that department, and who for many years has been the official stenographer of the State Department. Mr. Davis was accordingly released and has been serving as secretary and first assistant to Mr. Scott. The office force was later enlarged by the addition of Mr. Charles Wilson, of Boston, Mass., a stenographic helper, and within the last few weeks by the further addition of Mr. Charles L. Webb, of Chicago, Ill., a stenographic helper and Mr. R. W. Thompson, the well-known correspondent, who has been transferred from the Treasury Department to serve as an assistant in handling the many intricate problems which come to the office of the Special Assistant, whose bureau looks after matters affecting the interests of colored soldiers and colored citizens generally during the period of the war, and is acting in conjunction with the Committee on Public Information and other agencies of the Government in the important work of stimulating the continued loyalty of colored Americans. Teh duties involving upon Mr. Scott have grown steadily in volume and gravity and it has been necessary to steadily increase his office force to keep pace with the overwhelming mass of correspondence that flows daily into the office and to properly care for the welfare of the hundreds of cases that constantly press for attention and touch every possible phase of the activities of the colored people of the nation. More Marylanders Called to the Colors AMBASSADOR GERARD'S "My Four Years In Germany" or Face to Face with Kaiserism ..AT DUNBAR THEATRE.. Central Avenue near Monument Street Remember how Germany wanted Uncle Sam to sign an agreement not to take over German ships in American harbors, and how when Mr. Gerard refused to sign for his government, the Kaiser threatened violence to all American citizens then in Germany. Was Ambassador Gerard frightened by the Kaiser's threats? NO—his defiance of the angry Kaiser is the most courageous act of diplomacy of the entire war. See in pictures the Kaiser and his Berlin Court in their machinations against the entire world. No matter how well posted one may be on the war, the opportunity of seeing on the screen the events that led to our own participation is one not to be passed by, for the picture stirrs the blood, quickens patriotism and helps us to an understanding of why we are fighting.

Schools held its fifteenth annual session last week at Storer College. This is the first time that the Association has held its sessions so far north in a number of years, and as a result, the attendance of teachers from the south and southwest fell off considerably. The committee in selecting West Virginia, were mindful of the historic significance of the spot as well as the hope of the Association to draw more of the teachers of the middle states into the organization. It made note of the fact, too, that there were no Jimmy cars in the State, and therefore the southern teacher delegates could ride in any part of the coach they desired. The only coach present were Dean William Pickens, of Morgan College and Mason A. Hawkins, who made addresses, George B. Murphy and Rev. C. E. Stewart. The following resolutions were adopted at the meeting: "Be it resolved, that We heartily endorse the annual address of the President of the Association, and that we especially commend its high spirit of patriotism and its plea for increased facilities for universal education. That we join him in urging teachers to be away from their part-time service in educating youth by attractive salaries in other fields of labor. That we urge upon parents everywhere to keep their children in school, to be away from their discouraging effects of the draft nor the temporary attractions of which wages to lessen their efforts in any way to educate their children. That, while this education must include college training for those predeceased by the largely industrial and highly practical. Whereas, Between forty and fifty thousand illiterate men were brought into the army by the first draft, and Whereas, The later call revealed the same appalling conditions of illiteracy and since the great majority of these industrial and highly educated are Negroes from the South, be it Resolved, That we memorize the several States to make adequate provision for the education of the Negro youth and thus more effectively destroy the arch enemy of democratic connection, we urge all States to follow our example of West Virginia in paying equal salaries to all teachers for the same work. That this Association places itself on record as approving and desiring the development of the remarkable musical instincts of Negro children, for our well trained teachers of music in our public and private schools. New officers elected include S. G. Atkins, president State Normal and College of Sailors Institution-Shalem, C. Davidson Sailors Institution-Shalem, Augusta, Georgia, secretary* W. I. A. Howard, Tallahassee, Fla. treasurer. Mason A. Hawkins was a member of the active committee and G. B. Murphy appointed on the committee on publicity.

Considering the fact that it-was the laborious work in Mary- Tand shipyards that made the great, Douglass resolve to run away and seek freedom, and thkt if he had beon given @ soft fowsnold job around his master’s estate, the world would never have heard of him, it follows then that ships and ship- yards were responsible for the making of the great anti-slavery Negro. Not a bad idea at all to name one of the U. §. war- ships Douglass. Added to this, if Mr. Secretary Daniels is in a good promising mood, he might consent also to selecting the Sole crew from commander down to mess attendants irom members of the race of Douglass. Putting all jokes aside, and it is a joke to think of Daniels doing anything of the kind mentioned above, if the secretary of the great and strong navy of the United States wants to Ronor the colored people of this nation, there is no need for him to sagyest the emply, almost trival bait of naming a war- ship after the great Frederick. A much more real honor to the race would consist in offering the colored man a square chance at promotion in this most important branch of war service. ‘Nobody gives a tinker’s dam what they nanie the ships if they give colored men an equal chance to rise to yeomen, boat- swains, ensigns, Heutenants and commanders on these ships. "To serve on the ship’, not to name them is what we want. ‘The first without the second is a hollow mockery, and un- worthy of the great character and tradition of Uncle Sam's war fighters. Men, who have gotten the Kaiser's goat by their grand fighting on the Western front, deserve a chance to hunt down submarines. "Letters from our boys in France publshec im aiere column of the paper this week brought joy to the hearts of many home folks in Baltimore last weck. Many other letters were received that the Afro would like to print, some of them that will be saved fer a later date, They carry their own message of safe arrival, good health and splendid treatment, and sct at rest any fears that all might not have gone well with them. Rumors, more gossipy than malicious have been spread abroad concerning several of our local lads, who in these let- ters show themselves to be in fine spirits, and much. pleased “With their experiences so far. Hereafter friends and relatives of those who are fighting in France will know what to do with the persons who unintentionally or deliberately spread lies that are without any foundation. 5 Here is a lesson, too, for the loved ones of our boys at the front. It is natural for a mother to worry about her son who js away, as it was for her love and sympathy to go out to him in comfort when he broke his first toy or lost his best kite. It is a part of the thing called mother-love, and many ordinary people are not able to understand it or appreciate it. It is there nevertheless and a big factor in a mottier's life, ‘AIL of us, Who must remain at home can take to heart these fine words of John Berry to his mother. ‘They are an inspiration and a poem: “You will not.be able to hear from me often, but I hope you will be patient and not worry about me. 1 am going to keep well and contented always, under all cir- cumstances, and if L do, feel that after the job is done, I will come back safely to you. We must all hope for the same and wait patiently for the verdict of time.” Where is nothing of the American brag in these words, rather the calm conviction that “there is work to be done, and we will be back as soon as we have finished it.” ‘This is the spirit of our boys over there. We have a right to feel proud of them. By being patient, not worrying but cheerful and hopeful, and by doing our bit right here al home, they will have a xight to feel proud of us. Hot, oh boy, but it was nice and cool last winter, wasn’t o Everybody can’t go into the iront line trenches in the big: effort the naton is making to “carry on.” But there is am op- rortunity for every single soul to help with the war by doing his derndest, at home. The big duty of taking care of the strange soldiers and sailors who throng the city over week-ends, has created a problem that is up to us to solve. It is not wearing a uni- form, or learning to drill and carry a musket, or giving up a soft bed for the army straw mattress, but is opening your home to a boy—who is like your boy—a stranger in a strange land; it is in giving a home-sick lad a little of the mothering that he misses. a ride of a few hours in an auto, or donating a cot to keep him from walking the street and from straying into the questionable lodging houses. _ The War Camp Community Service Hotel, located on Or- chard street is making it casy for everyone to render genuine patriotic service. Let’s ‘chip in, The government has given the plant. Is it too much to ask us for the service. - Philadelphia, the scene of the most recent outbreak of race trouble is quiet again.

Outbreaks of this character, North as well as South, have similar features. There is always the racial antagonism be- Jow the surface awaiting the match to start the fire of mob tyeign.

Philadelphia ranks fourth or fifth in colored population. TUE PEOPLE FOOT THE BILL. ba If there is any one set ef people in our social system bile’ needs to come together every year in a great national body, to advise, project plans and ‘organize to carry them out, it is the school teacher. Taking ‘the average of them they work for @ mere pittance, and in the large number of cases earn the same salaries they earned five years ago. ‘They have the same moral right to war wages as other workers, but as a whole they have not realized the greatest lesson that the nineteenth century taught—organized we stand unorganized we starve. Shipbuilders, telegraphers, day la- borers, all craftsmen, all mechanics, all workeys, have the mor- al right to a living wage, but that is not the reason they are getting it in these times. They are getting good wages be cause they are organized to enforce their reasonable demands when necessary. 7 ‘This past week we have had the lamentable spectacle of a National Educational Association of Colored Teachers _in annual convention at Harper's Ferry with only about fifty delegates in attendance. They should have had five hun- dred or a thousand. There is the same. apathy in the state and city organizations of teachers, taking the country as a whole. Just so long as this condition persists, the country will continue to labor under the burden of poorly paid teachers, badly taught schools, illiteracy, crime... Not the teachers, but the country—the community are the ultimate victims. <e. bs “ a?

THE LYNCHING ORGY. Jn another column of this paper will’ be found the summary of the report of the National Awsociation for the advancement of Colored People through Secretary Chitlady on the five day's lynching ‘orgy In Georgia, May ito 22. From this statement it ap- pears that on Investigation made by Walter BP. White, it was found that there were bleven victims instead of six ay reported through the press at the time when the outrage was com- mitted.” These persons were lynched 4S a result of mob frenzy following the killing of a white farmer and tho wounding ofvhis wife. It is stated that one of the nien who was lynched Aeelared that he alone aid the sloot- fing sand that no others were impli-- cated in it. AS w result of these bru- tal murders, hundreds ‘of Negroes have left tre region, abandoned their cabins and homes,” deserted helt lands and Jeaving the’ whole region ty be overrun with weeds for luck of cultivation.

It is said that as many as 350 men quit work one day last week to cool off on an excursion down the bay. Owners of canning factories who put up nearly one-third of the tomatoes used in the country, found themselves facing a loss, and recommended to the fuel administration that the supply of coal to excursion steamers be stopped. The letter was referred finally to the Council of National Defense. In taking the matter up with the Council of Defense the Afro-American represented that stopping the excursions was not the way to remedy the owl. In addition women and children would suffer needlessly by cut off the means of a day's outing, to speak of the financial loss to pension steamer owners. It was suggested that the proper medicine of procedure be made a parting in a partnership with the workers in caring factories not to lay off during the tomato season. The case will be decided during the week.

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 had 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 wet down until I weighed only 96 lbs. Someone told me to try Dr. Campbell, and I went to 1699 Old 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 change for the better immediately. Thank God I am living, and on November 14th at 148 lbs. No one will believe now that I was sick in my life.

Following the close of the two weeks term of instruction in canning successfully carried on under the School board by local domestic science teachers, its continuance was taken up by the Emergency Agents of the Maryland State College and the United States Department of Agriculture beginning July 8, with Mrs. J. W. Vernon, the principal of the public schools of Washington in charge. Mrs. Shaw, appointed to this work in the summer of 1017, was the first emergency agent for colored work in the State. At present there are five such agents throughout the State, whose work of conservation propaganda has been accomplished with great effectiveness and much credit. The summer program for the city embraces the free use of the public school centres for housewives, the sale of fruits and vegetables at cost and the presence of demonstrators to give instruction when needed. Literature from the Agricultural Department and the State College giving the latest information on the subject is always on hand for free distribution. Mrs. Shaw makes the following urgent appeal: "Our women do not realize that much of the ignorance, poverty and crime in all cities is very largely due to the fact that people are not well fed. This may mean either over-fed or under-fed. The most wasteful people in the world are the poor people and all because of ignorance, poor management, improper foods, etc. "What can we hope for a Democracy if our citizens are not physically prepared to participate in it. It is our duty therefore by example, by precept, by persuasion, by all fair means to help educate our neighbors along this particular line." A cool kitchen, fully equipped, with demonstrator in attendance free is at your disposal every day in the week if you desire. Fresh vegetables and fruit are sold every Tuesday at wholesale rates, or you may bring your own material and have the use of the kitchen, gas and induction, ALL FN172L.

LOCAL WOMEN IN WAR WORK The fine opportunities that the derth of labor has given to colored workers are becoming more apparent daily. Not only are colored women doing work that they did not have a chance to do before, but they are being paid good salaries. In a local toteco factory Mrs. Estefan is a forebady in charge of colored girls, for which she is said to be paid not less than $100 a month. Miss Colestine S. Vannockey receives a good salary as a clerk in the same factory. Learners are paid $$$ per week. A number of teachers in the city schools are at work there, but the concern is said not to care for this class of labor as their stay is only temporary. The colored girl is working everywhere and just a few days ago one made her appearance as the first elevator operator at the Merchants' Club. She is Miss Sadie Brooks, of 203 N. Pine street. Waitresses made their debut at the Maryland Club a few days ago, and like those installed at the Baltimore Club, were well received. Large numbers of women are employed in the manufacture of wearing apparel as well as in the canning industry. Business needs—the necessity of winning the war—are causing many employers to forget their prejudices and look for skilled colored women workers. HAPPENINGS. AT EASTON. Easton, Md., August 7—Rev.

Open 5 A. M. Close 8 P. M. There are so many co-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 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, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the solution of an expert cosmetist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered pharmacist. It makes thair 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 Quinasop. Quinasop is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasop 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 Quinasop, asking for them by the full name. Price is 26 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.
