NATURE FAVORS INTERMARRIAGE BETWEEN RACES
New YorkJ Jurist Says Racial Interbreeding Has Existed for Ages
Prominent Washingtonians Received in Presidents Suite At Fashionable Lafayette Hotel SOCIETY Equality Said Out
New York, Sept. 10—In a remarkable article on "The Psychology of the Clash of the Races," which appeared in last Sunday's New York Herald, Justice W. Yorker O. Howard, of the Third District Judicial Circuit, noted that "nature has interbreeding no barriers to the intermixing of races as it has to the intermixing in the animal kingdom."
He discusses at length the great prejudice of the whites against any intermarrying with the colored people and says "inter-breeding races has interbreeding as long as the human family.
"Nature has interposed no barrier to the intermixing of the human races," he goes on to say. "Nature tolerates it, and invites it, and even compels it, by implanting in a man a preclivity to mate with his opposite. The blacks are profiled with the Caucasian and the African. The Indians and the French interbreed, the Incas and the Spaniards cross, the Mexicans and the Mongolians mix.
"The grand jury and society were shocked when the coal-black African wore the white hair. They were appalled at the violence and censorship and stopped their breath. But nature was not appalled—celipseids did not come, neither were mountains shaken nor rocks rent. In fact, it was in obedience to nature that the act was committed, in obedience to inexorable, unreasonable violence of misfortune. It is the same law which compels the blonds to love the brunette, the lean to love the fat, the tall to love the short, the homely to love the handsome, the violent to love the placid, the nervous to love the frightful, the fragile. It levels up the human race and places individuals on an equality. It averts the division of mankind into classes. It displaces prejudice and propagates brotherhood. It destroys Michelle's brutal exposition of the law of the survival of the fittest."
"But it shocks society when a Neumar marries a white girl or loves a white girl. And it shocks the writer of this article. And society cannot help but be shocked, and this writer cannot help but be shocked. And who made the tender white girl love the burly black man? What force impelled her to it? She fought against it with all of her strength. She knew that it would make of her an outlaw, an outcast, an object of scorn and contempt. She knew it would strasize her friend and son, and the houses and homes of her neighbors and friends and cast her into exile. But she could not master it—master the laws of the Omninotopt. And who can master those laws—inexorable, formutable, inflexible, unconquerable!"

RECEIVED BY BISHOP
Washington, Sept. 10—That Liberia offers an inviting field for emigrants and investors were brought out by Hon C. D. B. King, president of the little West African Republic, at a largely attended mass meeting at John W. Wright's sight. About 1600 representative Washingtonians crowded the edifice and an overflow meeting was held on the outside.
President-elect King was intently listened to as he sketched the efforts to counteract difficulties and its success along that line. He made an earnest plea for a more sympathetic interest in the welfare of his country on the part of Americans generally and especially the colored people. He praised the colored people's interest in the welfare of Liberia.
He paid tribute to the efforts of the original and later settlers from the United States, who have contributed much to the development of Liberia.
He owed much to the friendship of the United States, and is most anxious to obtain the continued cooperation of both white and colored Americans for the government modeled after your own republic," said the President-elect. "A great extent depends on the interest manifested by the colored people in the United States.
"We need emigrants from America to help in the further development of our country, and to labor and to embrace the brains and their hearts in the cause of progress in Liberia.
"We are eager to obtain the cooperation of intelligent colored citizens of the United States, and we know by experience that this cooperation will continue to be forthcoming because the colored people of America may always be dependent on us, and a cause which calls for altruism.
"The difficulties which Liberian has met with, were largely due to the fact that the 40,000 first settlers from American were called upon to establish a government through the consoless efforts of all Librarians, these difficulties have been overcome and Liberia is progressing in a remarkable manner." Emmett J. Scott, of Howard University, introduced Ernest Lyon, of Baltimore, the Liberian consul general to the United States, and the latter introduced President-elect King The Amphibian Gloe Club furnished musical GREETED BY LEADERS. President-elect King received a delegation of prominent citizens at the Lafayette Hotel, where he and Mrs. King have a suite of rooms. Rev W. H. Johnson, integration included the National Race Congress; Bishon I. N. Rose, Prof. John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the A. J. E. Church; J. Finley Wilson, R. J. H. Randall, Walter H. Brooks, W. H. Howard, W. A. Taylor, and J. Milton Walden.
Bishop Ross delivered an address welcoming the Liberian dignitary in the name of the 12,000,000 colony of Hawkins and Ross, Calif. Caitlin and Brooks spoke in a similar vein, pleading the interest of the Newcomers of America in the welfare of Liberia. Dr. Jerrigan introduction to him, minister of te delegation to Mr. Kennedy, member of the retainer of State for his country.
President-elect King represented his government at the Paris Peace Conference. He will take part here in the deliberations of the Peace Conference next month. He has been received by President Wilhelm at the White House, and the State Department. Many invitations of a social nature have been extended him and Mrs. King.

Though voting and living in a county, Charles, were the colored voters outnumber the whites. John H. Thomas, of Malcolm, candidate for one of the two Republican nominations for one of the gates, was sworn under. He received votes, while his white opponents, A. L. Jonax and Benjamin Henderson 57., received 486 and 472 votes respectively.
While it it said that whites down there do not want a colored man to run for an elective office and they campaigned among the colored voters against Thomas, his alma mater. It is said that desperate effort will be made to nominate a colored man two years hence.
Walter S. Emerson proved an easy winner for Republican committeeman in the 14th Ward, receiving about twice the vote polled by his opponents, Charles E. Smith, the last mural candidate received less than 10 votes. Mr. Emerson received support from the most substantial element in the ward and has been overwhelmed with congratulations. He was also awarded the organization in the Ward. His election by such an overwhelming majority is regarded by organization men as a mark of approval from the voters of their conduct of affairs during the past two years, and easily defeated by Charles C. Hall in the 17th Ward. The "boys" who always did the voting when the late Harry S. Cummins was in the saddle, lined up behind Hall. Thomas R. Smith, it is said worked hard for him, and he helped to win votes for his candidate. City Councilman William L. Fitzgerald was also active in the support of Hall. Smith distributed Hall's cards before the election and let all know that he wanted Richardson made a bad fight, his friends claim, relying too much on the belief that the voters repudiate Hall's entrance into the fight after a harmony conference the men and should be unopposed. The fight for Hall was waged among all elements. Rev. W. W. Allen, pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church is said to have advised his congregation last Sunday to vote for Hall, saying that his request is sufficient reason for their so doing.
Frank Hughes and Daniel H. Murphy, who were unopposed, will he delegates to the Republican State Convention from the First and Third Legislative Districts. C. Murphy, who was unopposed, delegates in the second District and John R. Cole and Clarence W. Bush pulled through in the Fourth. Captain Edward N.

The old Century Biblical Institute founded in 1811 now Morgan College, was located in this building which is perhaps the oldest Negro educational institution in the city. Spencer announced today that a forty-acre ranching the new Morgan College grounds on Harford road have been purchased and added to the College campus.

New York, September 12—Marcus Garvey, editor of the Negro World, was found guilty of criminal libel by Magistrate Simpson in Jefferson-Market Court yesterday. He was held in $3,000 bail for trial in Special Sessions. The complainant was Assistant District Attorney Edwin K. Pilroe.
Mr. Kilroe complained that Garvey printed in August issues of his paper articles calculated to cast on him "ridicule, hatred, contempt or obloquy." Garvey is the promoter of the "Black Star Line," which he has advertised as a steamship line trail and South America and the between this country, Africa, Cent-West Indies for the Negro race only.
Last Monday night at Carnegie Hall Garvey delivered an address in which he condemned the lynching of Negroes in the South, and said in effect that if the Negroes would press a button when such lynchings occurred a white man in Africa would be treated similarly. Transcripts of this speech are now being investigated by the District Attorney's office and the Lusk Legislative Committee.

If he is our friend, why does he give us stone, who ask fro bread and make us pay taxes when denying us the right to own a friendship is made of different stuff."

Philadelphians Urged Not Accept $20,000 Bribe Offered by State. 4000 People Crowd Theatre
Philadelphia, September 11—More than 4,000 persons crowded a local theatre Sunday and heard ringing appeals made in the fifty thousand dollar drive that Frederick Douglass Memorial Hospital is making, applauded the sentiment that the honor of the race stood for the people, an appropriation of $22,000 from the State Legislature and sacrificing the manhood of the race in so doing.
Col. Franklin A. Dennison, of Chicago, had been billed as the speaker, but he sent a letter of regret. His place was acceptably close to the president of Morgan College, Baltimore. Between $5,000 and $6,000 was given at the meeting. State Senator Edward H. Vare sent a check for $500. Bishop Lewel chucked it to J. S. Culdwell was among the speakers. Dr. Pickens made a speech that caught the big audience and hearty applause greeted him when he said he would not design the superintendent at the behest of politicians in order to make $22,000 from the State available. Opposition to Dr. Messolby by politicians is said to be due to the fact that he has never occasioned decimation.
"Not for sale" should be the motto of the Negro race in this country," said Dr. Pickens. "It should demand that qualification of all who aspire to its leadership. Douglass Hospital was founded on this principle, has been so conducted and now is continuing to maintain it. If this be true, it is not merely the hospital's fight, but a definite fight against the United Snakes." The campaign to raise 550,000 in

MIGRANTS SAY CHICAGO IS O.K.
Not One In Crowd of 4000 Willing to Return to South To Saw logs
Agent Is Told to Bring His Logs To Chicago If He Wanted Help
Chicago, Ill., Sept. 12.—Encouraged by the recent troubles in Northern communities numerous Southern delegations from various communities have recently visited Chicago and other cities with the most glowing inducements to colored people, urging them to "come to Chicago to see where the Are the best loved and most understood." In a great massacment held in
the Eighth Regiment Armory on the night of Labor Day, a question was asked by one of the speakers: "How many of you wish to return South?" In every portion of the audience of 4,000 could be heard the expressions "None," "No one." In very truth, this is the universal sentiment. Reports from employment bureau, the Urban League, and from members of commissions and delegations themselves, from the South, declare that Little or no encouragement has been received in the matter of returning South. One man expressed the sentiment of thousands when he said: "I would rather live in Chicago if they had a riot here every week." Another typical individual made a very amusing comment. This happened in the assembly room of the Chicago Urban League, and is vouchered for. The big white Southerner was present before an assembly of more than 100 Negro workmen. He deplored unmistakably that plagiarism up there many logs that need saving up. Railroad transportation would be furnished and $4 per day paid to the laborers. "How many of you wish to go?" he asked. There was painful silence. Finally one brother spoke up and said deliberately: "I tell you what you do, you send the logs up to Chicago and we'll saw 'em here."
So that seems to be the one way out, if the South must really have additional Negro help, and insists on the existence of civic injustices of the present, their logs will have to be sent North if the work is to be tone.

E. C Brown Head of Largest Colored Enterprise In Country
Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 10—A syndicate of Negro capitalists, of which E. C. Brown Company, of this city is the head, holds title to three large properties in West 141st Street, three in West 1926 Street, extending the whole block from Lenox Avenue to Seventh Avenue, New York, for a consideration said to be about $1,500,000. The properties cover over two acres and were built about seven years ago by a Mexican syndicate of which the late President Huerta, of that country, was the head. The properties are apartment houses, containing 1,466 rooms, divided into 306 suites. The properties were bought by the late Philip A. Payton, a well-known real estate operator, in 1917, and the title holding syndicate has been named the Payton Apartment Corporation.

Advised Administration To Segregate Colored Teach When Lyric Was Found To be too Small
Separate meetings of white and colored teachers of the city schools on Thursday were due to the fact that there is no hall or theatre in the city that will hold the school's performances for Charles J. Roek; Superintendent of Schools to a representative of the Afro-American.
Mir. Koch said that the Lyric the largest hall in the city, seatless less than 1,900 persons, and that counting the 29 teachers who have become a part of the city force, by taking in of the new ennies, Baltimore has now more than 2,200 teachers. In consultation with leading teachers there, the Mason Hawkins and Joseph Lockerman, respective heads of the High and Training Schools, advised that the colored teachers be given a separate meeting at one of the school buildings.
Carrying out this plan, the white teachers met at 2 o'clock Thursday afternoon at the Lyric Theatre and listened to a lecture by Dr. W. C. Bagley, and an explanation of the new salary scale by President James W. Chapman, of the School Board. The same speakers spoke again at the meeting of the colored teachers at the Eastern High School at 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon.
Superintendent Koch said that attendance at this first meeting of teachers was compulsory, and it was not wise to invite them to any theatre, when seats could not be provided for all. He added that attendance at other lectures to city teachers during the year, would be voluntary, and that these would hold as usual for white and cole together at the Lyric.
The Superintendent admitter it would not be good policy to rule have the same lecture dress two audiences of when colored teachers the same, the same subject, for that after the first lecture speaker would hardly be in condition to do himself and the second audience justified.
Only a few radical teachers are protesting against the present method of seating teachers at the school meeting, according to Mr. Koch. He said that the teachers were seated by schools, and that the colored teachers were seated on one side of the theatre, by themselves in seating as good those because white teachers. This means a teacher, he said, with tanner and protest stairs up-race riots, "let them go on," he added, and when riots come, the white people will know how to take care of themselves.
That the colored people of the city will not have representation on the School Board if the Superintendent can prevent, was evident when he wound up his interview by saying that "It is the radical element of colored people who are asking for a colored member of the School Board. It would to them more good if they asked for mere representation on the street cleaning force."

Hospital for Race, Assistant City Counsellorship, and Many Other Positions Given—Dr. Breedlove's Impressions of the East.
ing about $800,000 to establish a first-class hospital for the race there. The property of the old National University Hospital has been secured and is being remodeled for the use of the projected St. Louis General Hospital No. 2. It will have a staff of colored physicians, nurses and interns. The head nurse will be white, however, but is expected to only hold the position until a competent Negro head nurse is hired. There are about 100 colored doctors in St. Louis he said.
This is the first visit that Dr. Breedlove has made to the East. He says he has been most favorably impressed with the many things that he saw in various communities in this section of the country. He said that he was gratified at the progress being made along business and professional lines, all of which indicated that the race was learning more and more to patronize their own folks.
"I kept an account for several months recently of my new patients," he said. "Out of $2 new patients I found that all had been employing white doctors previously. That indicates that other business and professional men and women of the race can testify to similar things, and is an evidence of progress in my city, and, I take it, in the rest of the country."
Mrs. Breedlove, who is a competent pharmacist, was also charmed with her visit to the East, which includes New York, Newark, Atlantic City, Philadelphia, and Washington.

SAYS PATRIOTISM
JS CONDITIONAL
Love and service to one's country gives citizens in return.
That patriotism is conditional upon the equality, liberty and brotherhood meted out by a government to each of the citizens alike, and that the unconditional patriot is as much a menace to the state as the religious fanatic or the advocate of free love, was the substance of an address by Carl J. Murphy, editor of the Afro-American, before the Life Problem Club at the Y. M. C. A. last Sunday afternoon.
According to Mr. Murphy, who was backed up by the testimony of an overseas veteran, who had spent eighteen months in France, the soldiers who went overseas went for other than patriotic reasons, and there is a good bit of "bunk" in the newspaper talk current all over the South, that the "Negro has and always will remain instinctively patriotic."
The Life Problem Club meets every Sunday afternoon at 5 P. M. at the "Y." The subject for next Sunday is "Significant World War Benefits to the American Negro. There will be open discussion.

Churches and Church People
SAYS REV. COLBERT
Pastor of Grace Church tells
Congregation Not To Depend on God For Everything.
In the course of an illuminating
sermon at Grace Presbyterian
church last Sunday morning, Rev.
John T. Colbert, who was in Chicago
during the recent race roots,
asserted that "the race problem
can only be solved by allowing the
maro the same chance for the
right of happiness as any other
man." His theme was "The Rise
of Race in Business."
"Wake up!" laws operative
on every collar of溶剂 regardless of
and assure every man his
right indiscriminately, and above
all let the white man keep the law
if he wishes the Negro to do like
He gave a graphic picture of the situation in Chicago, said the colored people fought bravely against their aggressors, and denied that the cause of so many colored people animating to Chicago and other cities was for intermarriage or other intermingling with the whites. Mentioning the many economic and civil opportunities owed theigrant, the minister declared that frichems, suppression of race journals, exploitation acts, segregation and other forms of discrimination would solve the Negro problem. He then sketched the progress that the race had made in acquiring property and getting a foothold in industry, the professions and in industry. Southern anti-Negro propaganda, poor housing conditions, jealousy and race prejudice and the rise of the conscription were given as contributing factors to race con-
Must Taboo Proscriptions.
After guarding that class of white men who include the Negro in the general program for democracy and equal rights, the speaker went on:
"The Negro never will any more, so long as he remains a distinct race, he satisfied with the imaginary line of demarcation drawn between him and his civil rights as a citizen, there placed by the cruel bands of journey and prejudice. He does not want proscribed imitations in his sphere of service as some think wise to do, but who at the same time make the high standard of requiems for Negroes the profession. Had the Negroes only vocational training at the beginning of the war, there would never have any columns, majors, captains,侍卫ers and interpreters of the French language, as we had. In every call to duty they acquitted themselves like men. Never again will we be content with unjust discriminations and ill treatment.
"We do not advocate desperation at all in demanding our rights, but every man is a tool and a coward that does not protect his own some where his individual rights are infringed upon by hoodlums. Continue men that they have no place in society and no refuge in a capable like ours; discriminate and continue the evil atrocities upon the Negro without redress, and you create the desperation out of which springs violence. The Negro is tired of carrying the burdens of expression had upon him 300 years ago by white exploiters to see him as a chattel."
After advising that the race not just acts with the radical hoodlums, but "should keep cool heads and burning hearts for justice, Rev. Dr. Culbert concluded:
"Be patriotic and like Shamger, who was victorious in the great struggle with the Blintists, and not upon God to do everything for you, but in doing his help. And there is no earthly power that can keep the Negro from coming into his own."
BIG CONGREGATIONS
GREET DR. BROOKS
Despite the intense heat, the morning and evening services at Bethel A. M. E. Church was attended by large congregations last Sunday. Bishop John Hurst preached an inspiring sermon on "The Kingdom of God", in the morning. The pastor, Rev. W. Simpson Brooks, preached on "The Cost of Peace" in the evening church of the restlessness today," he said, "is due to the fact that the people of the earth have not and the price of peace. There is solution in moral, moral affairs that ignores the principles of Christianity. The people must get their keynote from the church and the people, in turn, must not depart from the principles of Christ."
Dr. Brooks was warmly greeted by the members, many remarking that his vacation had made him look like a new man.

IN MEMORIAM
ARMSTRONG—in sad but loving remembrance of our dear sister, Maggie Armstrong, new Haywood, who departed of Sept. 1818. To her of Sept. once more is here. To us the years passed, our hearts still sore. To her files on we miss her more but time will come when we will meet She sheeps! we leave her in peace to rest. Porgation in you shall never be. The parting was painful but God will bring her to her loving sister, MAMIE STEWART and brother, CLAMENCE HAYWOOD.
**O'MELIA** in love and loving remembrance of our dear son and brother, Trivale Eumoldi O'MELia, who died March 9, 1919, Nerves, France. Dear little dog with a golden star. Stimbs for a son that's gone after. When she lives for the Red, White and Blue. For the modest cause we ever knew. May the Stars and Strips of Old Glory wave. 'O'er the grave of our dear one, true love.
Gone but not forgotten
We how we watched to see him coming
We how we heard his call
We never ever forget that parting
That long and sad goodbye
He let only for a little while
In other lands to die.
Oh, how sudden was the summons.
When word, came that our boy was
dead.
Oh, that we had been present.
The trouble might have done
The trouble words we might have said
Because God called him home.
Some where in France they hurried him
Within a quiet, lonely place.
Unknown save by his fighting mares
Who cheered the cause he did to save
And for his sacrifice the Stars and
Strings
Still proudly wave somewhere in France.
His MOTHER, SISTERS AND BROTHER GEORGE AND CUSIN, CARRIE 1101 Arlington Ave. Govs. Mo.
GOMEGYS—In sad but loving remembrance of our dear friend, Mabel, who departed this life on the night of July 27th, 1915 at 10:40, death has relied us on our care. We have loved dear, Mabel. Taken from this world of sorrows Safety home with God to dwell.
There was an angel band Which was not quite complete They called our dear loving Mabel. To fill the vacant seat.
JANE SMITH AND FRIEND.
DERRICKS—In loving memory of our dear wife and mother, Mrs. Jenie Derrickles, who died three years ago. September 2.
How we miss your smiling face How we miss your smiling face But you left us to remember None on earth can take your place.
A happy home we once enjoyed How sweet the memory still But death has left a loneliness.

WHITING — Memorial of Eva
Henry Whiting.
Eva I miss you, yes I do
There is not a day $ don't think of
you
I would not have you back again
in this world of toll and pain.
I feel that you are now at rest
numbered with the blest
This day, one year, you joined the
throng
That swells the number round the
throne.
Eva I am coming too
To be forever there with you
To tell the story of true
Of love and his love.
From her devoted mother,

giving, "Ephraim, 2 ppm." On are on every side of "Achim," and on are too thin a vell to hide them. Flippant remarks cannot conceal them. Wealth cannot stop their pain, and poverty does not of necessity increase it. Most people are in need of cheer and the Sacred Scripture, and as a rule this is imparted by the help that every right thinking, true hearted person can give. In many a richly furnished house there is a shadow cast by a sorrow that stamped on little while with lightening touch in the home of ornament.
The human family is a great household. The 'chasm' which are supposed to divide us are imaginary geo real.
In weakness, in need, in sadness, in appreciation of sympathy and in response to love we are often called allies. Why not not today enter this wonderful Sacred Scripture Movement, be greatly benefited and offer a prayer something like this: **HELP ME** To be more true and good from day to day.
And just a little bit more fair in some small way.
To think some kindly thing of the folks I know.
To share some weary traveler's

To keep my Brother's heavy woe in
crushing load
And lead some wanderer back into
the road.

According to the Associated Negro Press, it catches, more than five hundred persons have gone to Dimaha, Nebraska, during the past week and, at three hundred of these have gone into Side, seeking employment in packing house, Armour & Co. Employment Bureau has not increase of 75 per cent. of Negroes applying for work. Who said the migration had stopped.
It is apparently one of the vagaries of education that Margaret L. Smith, white, a teacher, Horace Mann School, has been nominated publicans in the 19th Assembly District of New York.
Ignoring Kipling's statement that the female are deadly than the male, colored people of strict insisted on running in opposition to M. Bolden as an independent candidate.
Representative Dent, of Alabama, ranking District member of the House Military Affairs Clerk, introduced in the House an army reorganized bill which eliminates the universal training in fly in the ointment is that southern reprems oppose any scheme that provides for milling for colored men.
"I believe in Texas for Texans only, and just as strongly do I believe that Texans should say how the affairs of the State should be conducted. And I believe in sending any narrow-brained, double-chinned reformer who comes here with the end in view of stirring up racial discontent back to the North where he came from, with a broken jaw, if necessary."
Instead of urging Uncle Sam to send U. S. sons down into Mexico, it would be a much moreasant expedition to send a detachment of Sons into Texas to force men like Governor Hoy pay the proper respect and to Americans.
According to the Associated Negro Press dispatches, more than five hundred persons have gone to Omaha, Nebraska, during the past week and at least three hundred of these have gone into the South Side, seeking employment in packing houses. Armour & Co. Employment Bureau has noticed an increase of 75 per cent. of Negroes applying for work. Who said the migration had stopped.
It is apparently one of the vagaries of equal suffrage that Margaret L. Smith, white, a teacher in the Horace Mann School, has been nominated by Republicans in the 10th Assembly District of New York.
Ignoring Kipling's statement that the female is more deadly than the male, colored people of the District insisted on running in opposition Rev. R. M. Bolden as an independent candidate.
Representative Dent, of Alabama, ranking Democratic member of the House Military Affairs Committee, introduced in the House an army reorganization bill which eliminates the universal training idea. The fly in the ointment is that southern representatives oppose any scheme that provides for military training for colored men.
WAS MK' SHILLADY NARROW BRAINED?
In making a speech before a State Convention in favor of the United States intervention in Mexico, Governor Hobby, of Texas, went out of his way to make the following remarks:
"I believe in Texas for Texas only, and just as strongly do I believe that Texas should say how the affairs of the State should be conducted. And I believe in sending any narrow-brained, double-chinned reformer who comes here with the end in view of stirring up racial discontent back to the North where he came from, with a broken jaw, if necessary."
Instead of urging Uncle Sam to send U. S. soldiers down into Mexico, it would be a much more pleasant expedition to send a detachment of Saminis down into Texas to force men like Governor Hobby to pay the proper respect and honor to American citizens.
PLEASE COME IN
Gormen, Texas, according to the dispatcher, week, has lifted the ban on colored folk. In a measure this is one of the most startling of information that has sprung from this Texas for a long time, for this town of 600 km in the centre of fifty counties in middle west western parts of the Lone Star State, where red man has been permitted to enter up to 10. The population of this part of the State had of real crackers, and there were only 12 designers. "Negro read and run" was the signage in public places and colored travelers for welcome when they stopped off for a rest and. Colored servants and laborers were unkilled. Last week came the change. Oil was discarded and the population jumped 300 per cent in a while. The newcomers were hard put to it officers and servants. The City Council was told, and decided that continuing to keep us out, WOULD BE STANDING IN THE WHEE THE ENGINE OF PROGRESS. And now first time colored folk may go to Gormen to see their homes there. There is nothing good or great that America do, without the help of the American Negro. thing about it he is always ready to help, can grudge, and is hard to insult, because he knit it won't be long before the white man is knit on his door, hat in hand, asking, "please do favor."
Gormon, Texas, according to the dispatches of the week, has lifted the ban on colored folk. In a measure this is one of the most startling bits of information that has sprung from this part of Texas for a long time, for this town of 600 whites is in the centre of fifty counties in middle western and western parts of the Lone Star State, where no colored man has been permitted to enter up to this time. The population of this part of the State consisted of real crackers, and there were only a few foreigners. "Negro read and run" was the sign displayed in public places and colored travelers found no welcome when they stopped off for a rest and a meal. Colored servants and laborers were unknown. Last week came the change. Oil was discovered and the population jumped 300 per cent in a very little while. The newcomers were hard put to it for laborers and servants. The City Council was appealed to, and decided that continuing to keep Negroes out, WOULD BE STANDING IN THE WAY OF THE ENGINE OF PROGRESS. And now for the first time colored folk may go to Gorman and make their homes there.
There is nothing good or great that America can do, without the help of the American Negro. The fine thing about it he is always ready to help, carries no grudge, and is hard to insult, because he knows that it won't be long before the white man is knocking on his door, but in hand, asking, "please do me a favor."

LIBERIA CALLS
As a country the size of Ohio and a population 2,500,000, two colleges, banks and agricultural industrial outlook, that is said cannot be used anywhere. Liberia stands as a land of opportunities to the colored man of the United States President-elect C. D. B. King, of Liberia, proposed as a solution for the race proberer America. He issues the invitation to all dissatisfied groves to go over to the African Republic, for all be where race riots and race discord no longer cause annoyance and a feeling of security. From 1843, when Liberia was founded by colonization societies from America, for purpose of getting American Negroes back to their home, until today, only 20,000 persons
As a country the size of Ohio and a population of 2,500,000 two colleges, banks and agricultural and industrial outlook, that is said cannot be surpassed anywhere. Liberia stands as a land of opportunities to the colored man of the United States.
President-elect C. D. E. King, of Liberia, has this proposal as a solution for the race problem in America. He issues the invitation to all dissatisfied Negroes to go over to the African Republic, and once for all be where race riots and race discrimination no longer cause annoyance and a feeling of insecurity.
From 1848, when Liberia was founded by several colonial societies from America, for the purpose of getting American Negroes back to their native home, until today, only 20,000 persons have taken advantage of this opportunity to leave their American home for Africa.
The rest of the Liberian population consists of two principal tribes of natives, first the Mandingoes (Mohammedans) secondly the Kru ... groves and their allies.
It is not strange that the largest number of colored people are not taking advantage of the offer to settle in Liberia. First of all, the colored American is not a pioneering and wayfaring spirit. Then it is in search of more civilization, and not less, the stories of old sleeping slackness and swamp more provocation. Africa, are not calculated to make him anxious to return. Most important of all is that in 300 years of his American residence, he has grown to be an American of Americans. He
would regard it as a calamity, to leave America at the present time without showing the American white man that he had the stuff in him to force citizenship rights.
OPPOSING NATURE
When Representative Madden of Illinois applies before the Interstate and Foreign Committee of the House last week and advocacy of the Jim Crow car in Interstate railroad, the following dialogue took place:
When Representative Madden of Illinois appeared before the Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee of the House last week and advocated abolition of the Jim Crow car in Interstate railroad traffic, the following dialogue took place:
Mr. Madden, Rep., Ill.:—The Government has no right to draft its citizens in defense of its flag and at the same time to say to them that their rights are inferior to those of other citizens of the United States. Japanese and Chinese are allowed to ride on trains on equal conditions with whites.
Mr. Reyburn, Dem., Texas:—You want to force the Negroes to ride in the cars with the white people when the Negroes themselves would either ride in separate cars than to be mixed with white people."
Mr. Madden:—"I deny that the Negroes themselves would rather be in a separate car."
Mr. Reyburn—"I deny that you understand the Negro."
Whenever a white man in authority finds him off on the defensive, and it becomes necessary to make public his reasons for treating color people differently from other citizens, he falls to the ancient bank that the colored people have "want to be separate." "want to be by the lives" "want to be Jinierowed." "don't want to whiten" "prefer their own kind." "take no rest in politics" "are satisfied with present colonies." "don't want representation on the Schwarzer" and a thousand other gib excuses that contribute to the tongue.
From the Negro's point of view, the most feasible feature of this situation is that the white man make these remarks, always put them in a late newspaper that refuses letters in reply to colored readers, or make them before a white man, where there is no danger of colored people sending up and mailing the lie.
Down at bed rock, the struggles of the cravement in the United States to keep the races apart as possible legally, while it is the same cover of the darkness they make their home of some dark skinned damsel, while the rear raes a breed of mutato children, these rear raes are the dying effort of blind and irreverent to turn aside the course of nature.
As Justice Wesley Howard of the Third District of New York, points out, in an article in the Psychology of Race Riots, which appears as a recent issue of the New York Harold, man is drawn a hard and fast line between the class and species of animals that she desires to know.
Cats and dogs, robots and woodpeckers and carp, do not interbreed, for if they would soon have a conglomerate fauna between the races of men, nature has drawn no skies. Blacks and whites, yellows and reds, blues and browns, all intermingle and intermarry and profile as when they remain among their races as she has between the species of animals, the same way thru intermarriage, they may agree that uniform shade.
This is the thing, at bottom. Representative Lennon and men like him are striving to prevent, use the words of Justice Howard again, oppose with their pony efforts. It is like ants try stop the flow of the Mississippi river, or mosquito trying to stop the rush of an Alpine glacier.
Mr. Madden:—"I deny that the Negroes themselves would rather be in a separate car."
Mr. Reyburn:—"I deny that you understand the Negro."
Whenever a white man in authority finds himself on the defensive, and it becomes necessary for him to make public his reasons for treating colored people differently from other citizens, he falls back on the ancient bunk that the colored people themselves "want to be separate," "want to be by themselves," want to be Jimcrowed," "don't want to mix with whites," "prefer their own kind," "take no interest in politics," "are satisfied with present conditions," "don't want representation on the School Board," and a thousand other gib excuses that come readily to the tongue.
From the Negro's point of view, the most noticeable feature of this situation is that the whites who make these remarks, always put them in a white newspaper that refuses letters in reply by colored readers, or make them before a white audience, where there is no danger of colored people standing up and nailing the lie.
Down at bed rook, the struggles of the cracker element in the United States to keep the races as far apart as possible legally, while it is the same time under cover of the darkness they make their way to the home of some dark skinned damself, who in time years a breed of mutato children, these struggles are the dying effort of blind and irreverent men to turn aside the course of nature.
As Justice Wesley Howard of the Third Judicial District of New York, points out, in an article on the Psychology of Race Riots, which appeared in a recent issue of the New York Herald, nature has drawn a hard and fast line between the classes and species of animals that she desires to keep apart. Cats and dogs, robins and woodpeckers, trout and carp, do not interbreed, for if they did, we would soon have a conglomerate fauna. But between the races of men, nature has drawn no such lines. Blacks and whites, yellows and reds, blacks and browns, all intermingle and intermarry and are as prolific as when they remain among their own color. Nature has made no barrier between the races as she has between the species of animals, and in the same way thru intermarriage, they may again become that uniform shade.
This is the thing, at bottom, Representative Reyburn and men like him are striving to prevent, and to use the words of Justice Howard again, opposing nature with their efforts. It is like nats trying to stop the flow of the Mississippi river, or mosquitoes trying to stop the rush of an Alpine glacier.
THE PRIMARY ELECTION
The election of Mr. Walter Emerson in the Kearnd and Mr. Charles Hall in the 17th Ward, rather with the uncontested election of the delegate of the State Convention, gives the Republican organization in both wards full control. Harmony is to be the watchword now, and it must be if the man to be mode of the coming election. Results that the voter is looking for, and leaders in the wards will have to face the music if results are forthcoming.
The election of State Central Committeemen Republican ticket from several counties audited for the increased interest of the colored position in politics. Perhaps the most spectacle right was that made by Mr. John D. Broadus County Commissioner in Prince Georges County Republicans, embarrassed by his wonderful sister, said he was being put forward by Democrat Broadus denied this, but declares that he made light on Principle. Listen to this. Broadus said: I WILL CONTINUE TO PREACH THE DATE IN THIS COUNTY AND ELSEWHEN WHAT THE NEGRO VOTER MUST RECEICTION WITHIN HIS PARTY OR WILL BE IN AN ACCOUNTING AS TO WHY HE IS INJECTED TO FUGISH THE VOTES, AND OTHING FOR HIS FIDELITY AND LOYALTY. Broadus and John Thomas of Charles County no run for the State Legislature and was defeated the first colored men to seek higher office. The State in the recollection of political leader Broadus himself, lost by a small margin, but our colored candidates for the State Central Committee WON. And the next election both of the will try again.
The kind of uphill fight these men are making a chance in politics commends itself to thoughtful voters everywhere.

The election of State Central Committee on the Republican ticket from several counties augurs well for the increased interest of the colored population in politics. Perhaps the most spectacular fight was that made by Mr. John D. Broadus for County Commissioner in Prince Georges County.
Republicans, embarrassed by his wonderful showing, said he was being put forward by Democras. Broadus denied this, but declares that he made his fight on Principle. Listen to this. Broadus said:

Broadus and John Thomas of Charles County ran for the State Legislature and was defeated areth first colored men to seek higher offices in the State in the recollection of political leaders.

The Baltimore News has called up one of leading colored ministers of the city, and made, and asked for a statement in favor of a new Park for colored people at Westport.

George Hugg replied: "Colored people have always conducted the lives becoming in the city parks and Zamora is no cause to expect otherwise in the future white people are the "superior" race, and nurse. THEY will conduct themselves properly when race fighting is going to result I cannot fear far more friction would result in the make all of the colored people use one park Then the News hung up.

The Baltimore News has called up one of the leading colored ministers of the city, and maybe more, and asked for a statement in favor of a Jim Crow Park for colored people at Westport.
Over the 'phone, the News editor used the argument that a park for colored people would avoid friction between the races, and the Rev. George F. Brugg replied:
"Colored people have always conducted themselves becoming in the city's parks and Team sure there is no cause to expect otherwise in the future. The white people are the 'superior' race, and of course, THEY will conduct themselves properly. So how race friction is going to result I cannot see. I fear far more friction would result in the effort to make all of the colored people use one park."
Then the News hung up. We'll say they got an offbeat
THE AFRO-AMERICAN
PEOPLE'S FORUM
Reader Suggests That Committee of Representative Citizens Should Call on Mayor Broening and Request Appointments of School, Jail and Park Boards. To the Editor; It is about time we were awakening to the fact that now is our time to obtain for our race just recognition of our political worth.
It is admitted by all politicians of both parties that Republicans cannot hope to elect their candidates without our assistance, and as our Mayor is very anxious and desirous for the election of Mr. Nice to be the Governor of the State of Maryland, it is no more than right that he should show by his acts that he is our friend, therefore I would suggest that a delegation of prominent men of our race would wait upon his Honor and demand of him that he give us recognition by appointing one of our people to be Commissioner of Street Cleaning; also by appointing one of our people to the Jail Board, School Board and Board, and I would teach him very plain language, that if he didn't we proposed to stay away from the polls on election day and encourage on to do so too, and let Mr. Nice know of our action. Nice know of what if something like this is done we will be able to see whether his Honor is the friend to clients to be.
Comes to Defense of Cardinal Gibbons and Catholic Institutions.
To the Editor: Your issue of the week of September 5th appeared an article by a Mr. Lackay. The person in question does not only lack eyes in reading your news item of the previous week, but he is wanting in wholesome thoughts.
The colored Catholics of Baltimore resent such undignified bigotry as exhibited by such men as of Mr. Laakey. James Cardinal Gibbons has proven himself. As a citizen and gentleman for over three-quarters of a century, has been a force for good in this community for the manly stands he has taken as a churchman and a citizen for the uplift of humanity and the defense of conditions of all depressed people, particularly the colored man. There exists in Baltimore city a convent which has stood the test of all that is good in womanhood for nearly 100 years.
Hardly an old family of color of this city or state which in some period of its life has not come in intimate association with these women, who are doing a most meritorious work audistall denominations in training their girls. There has never been a breath of public social attached to them. This institution safeguarded the morals of those children when the home failed.
There are responsible non-Catholics who have inspected this institution and noted the good sanitation, care and happy expression of those whom misfortune left without parental care.
These women are banded together for Christian purposes and ill becomes those who cannot imitate them to throw stones at harmless, innocent women. They are not forced into those institutions, but enter them of their own free will, and are admitted to membership only after trial, but even then they can leave it at any time of their life if they find that they have made a mistake and gotten in the wrong way. No one compels them to go, and to one compels them to remain.
The colored Catholics speak out frankly without compromise for principals of right and justice, and at no time they are afraid to condemn wrong doing or immoral conduct, neither have they any apology to make for their religion and have better sense at all times to vilify others because they are not of their religious faith.
"Because of image," they call them, when themselves they vilified.

Observer Still Insists St. Paul is Running Into Needless Debt in Buying a New Church Instead of Remodeling the Old One.
Dear Editor: In your last week's edition One Who Knows attempted some feeble defense of the Rev. Virgil. He glossed over the Reverend's foolish defense of the Baltimore American's unfair editorials on the race riots by saying he has a right to express his views. One Who Knows should know that such views as he expressed make him unfit to be a leader of colored citizens in West Baltimore or anywhere else.
As to the church deal, One Who Knows, is counseled, is no other than one of the officials whose business it is and was to assist in making St. Church folk believe they were getting a gold mine for $20,000. The only real bargain, perhaps, is the parsonage, so we can't blame the Reverend after all.
One Who Knows (if he is all his name implies) knows that 70 percent of the reliable membership objects to the deal, because not one sound reason or any advantage has been advanced for the change. Observer hopes that no other congregation in the connection will have their head so turned because of the assistance from the Centenary Fund, as to enter into unnecessary debt. From another who knows.
BREATHE.
Counselling for bearence. patience and strict devotion to the business of accumulating wealth. The race obeyed. What is the result? There is more race prejudice in the country
today, then the most pessimistic observer ever dreamed of. Deprived of the common rights of citizenship which reserves the natural rights of the race has only served to increase the hate and resentment that the white masses bear it.
No being protected by the lawful instruments that are living about a citizen, to them a Negro millionaire is no more than a Negro rug-picker. Except that the millionaire creates. But individually they seem scorned, laughed and kicked about at will. Proof: Whenever these riots occur what is the slogan hose these outwaves adopt? Get the "nigger" where ever you see a white appear; "One" there is the answer in a nutshell. One what? One of those "things" that we are at liberty to kill, crush, to wipe off the face of the earth? "Who care?" "Nobody, not even the law." "Go
Our leading citizens may draw up resolutions and hold conferences, and offer monetary rewards for their participation, unless they see to it that the Negro is accorded equality of citizenship like that of any other group of our multifarious population, thus creating a public鞭责 for the Negro who sees that are simply engaged in the pastime of trying to mukke the tail wag the dog. You cannot convince a man that racial equality he must resurrect his racial identity he sees that same man prescribed against by state and nation. To attempt to do so is but to stir in man's heart a more violent, vindictive and contemptuous for the vice
No gave Negro wants to see a race war. But having been taught the lesson of freedom, liberty, and the glory of American manhood, and having shed his blood on a hundred foreign legions, the Negro would be unfit to breathe the breath of life, let alone being called an American, if he allowed himself to be shot down like a dog, without fighting back, even to the extent of dying in self defence of his manhood, but the leaders of this nation put out an unstoppable virgin principle they are mapping out for the other nations, and we shall soon be done forever with race riots in our beloved land. W.M. E. READY Baltimore, September 5, 1916. I believe the spirit of our deceased live and communicate with us and comfort us here on earth in our many troubles.
I remember about a year ago. I was in great trouble and while looking over the Church Notices, I saw that Dr. G. W. Kemmard, pastor of the Church of the Blessed Spiritual meeting on the following Sunday: so I went to that meeting full of trouble and Dr. Kemmard came to me and said, "Your father is dead and his spirit is here and told me not to do anything." I did not believe in life after death at that time. I doubled his test. The next day, I met my father, who was dead and truly came in spirit and said, "Son don't worry, I have no trouble." Singing that time he always comes and tells me what to do in time of trouble. I believe the reason why the word does not believe in this is that I was taught that the dead goes in Heaven and Hell at death. The Bible teaches us that they are in their grave waiting for the resurrection to be judged and then assigned to the real St. John, Chapter 5; verses 28:29 also Corinthians; Matthew, Chapter 28:5; also read 1st Samuel, Chapter 28: 5. Be sure to take special touchs of the 2nd and 16th verses, 9 and 10.
Yes, the spirit of our deceased ones
does appear and talks to us and com-
mends us.

The great progress that the Grand United Order of Good Hope has made during the sixteen years that William G. Price has been Grand Master was portrayed at a testimonial banquet given in his honor at Good Hope Hall Monday night.
The function came as a result of the general esteem with which Mr. Price is held veneridly and withlits out the fraternal ties. It was financed entirely by ladies and members of the Order. Prominent representatives of other fraternal bodies were on hand to show their appreciation and good will. The moving spirit of their fur was Mrs. Pannie Dashields, President to the Auxiliary to the Board of Directors of the Good Hope Joint Stock Association. Associated with her were Alfred Nixon, Grand Secretary of the Order; William G. Price, Past Deputy Grand Master; Miss Lucy Gross, Vice Grand Daughter, and Miss Gertrude Robinson.
The assembly hall was tastefully decorated for the occasion. Prominent men and women were seated on the platform. Hill's Orchestra furnished the music. Addresses lauding Mr. Price's services were delivered by C. C. Fitzgerald, who sketched the growth and status of the fraternity; Mrs. Jennie H. Ross, Lorean L. Berry, George B. Brown, Mrs. Florena K. Owens, Solomon Bond and W. Ashieb Hawkins, who on the part of the order, gave Mr. Price a suitably inscribed handsome gold watch and chain and signet ring. Mr. Price was the present on account of illness, was remembered with a fine causer breastin.
Grand Master Price, in responding, said that words were inadequate to express his appreciation. He pledged his continued interest in the welfare of the Order. Solos were sung by Rev. Charles E. Stewart and Mrs. Viola Weedon. The invocation and benediction were by Rev. William Joynes. Alfred Nixon presided.

An Answer by Rev. George Frazier Miller, Brooklyn, N Y., one of the Outstanding Episcopal Clergymen of the Country. Rev. Miller's Reply is aresponse to A Query From the Afro-American
When I read the "AFRO"
Some time ago
That the Federated Charities
Were raising money
For the tiny girl
They called CELESTE
I knew that Celeste
Was only the name
The workers gave her
To keep you and me
From knowing afterward
Who was the person
They were trying to help.
So I gave my mite
And you gave yours
And they added it up
Down to the AFRO office
And took is across
To McCoy Hall,
In a great big envelope
Addressed very nicely to
"LITTLE CELESTE."
But this was more
Than a month ago
Just the other day
I saw one of the Workers
With a LITTLE GIRL
Down in the Shopping District
And close by her side
Walked hand in hand
The mite of a girl
We have been calling
To the Editor:
In reply to your enquiry, let me say that, in youth and early manhood, I was an ardent Republican, but with the advance of maturity I then more and more of Republican tradition which I should have described (1) (1). I think you deserve a brief statement, and (2) every one fairly well conversant with the political trend since 1876 will observe that not human rights, but a high protective, tariff policy, has made the supreme and well high sole issue of the Republican party.
I continued a Republican by force of the necessity of choosing between the two sides—the civil side—because the state says, never offered the colored people as much as the Republican party that neglected them and taint same neglecting party.
As a colored American citizen I found myself being helped by the numerous, diverse and patient as to oblate the need of a radiation of them at this point. The glittering generativeness and soothing virtitudes of Republicans, never intended for performance, not only promise, but finally disgusted me.
The Socialists were, obviously, a people with a grievance, and believing it to be the part of wisdom for all people with grievances to make common cause. I began to study the grievances discovering whether or not the grievances of the Socialists and mine were common, to determine whether it were the voice of wisdom that my cause he cast with theirs. The more I studied Socialism the clearer became the unity of the fundamental principles of that philosophy and the nature of life in which he was being taught in total assurance that
they were socialistic; viz: the sur-
sidency of the creation of wealth for human needs, and the evils of con-
centration, or the passing of the con-
centration, or the wealth imbued in the
workers into the lands of the few
—the immoral and vicious distri-
tion of wealth, common ownership of
the natural resources and their admin-
istration for service not for profits;
the exploitation of the wealth imbued in
created through the concentration of
population; the right of access to the
tools of production, the full rewards
of one's labors, and immunity from
discharge (this is the universalization
of the right to work); the con-
ternation or the oneses of man
in blood and in interests, especially,
the interests of working and oppres-
sed peoples who are forced to
battle, not so much against the ar-
tribal powers, as the domination of a purityse.
The destruction of this latter will
destroy the former automatically and
utterly.
All the economic grievances of the
society were mine; additionally, I
had many other grievances, and
grievances that were not theirs.
The Republican party and I had but one thing in common—opposition. I was a member of the party found, was not a sufficiency of common interest to keep it and me together. I became an agent student of Socialism, and finally, in the fall of 1906, my first public appearance as a Socialist was made, in an address on "The Ethical Basis of Socialism." But was not until 1911 that I really understood the meaning of paying member, and since then I have been an earnest worker in carrying a knowledge of this philosophy to the people. Acquaintances and pre-
New. John Haynes Holmes. New York, writing in Reconstruction, says the black man cannot afford to accept anything less.
Rev. Holmes' statement in paris is a reply to cracker journals like the Baltimore Sun, that says the colored man has no grievance. 1. Cause? A great race, smitten by great achievement, tested by great achievement, demands to be received into the man family. The last, but not the
J. G.
CELESTE.
They looked in the windows,
Went in the stores,
Bought shoes and stockings,
Clothes and pretty hats,
And the many, many things,
That a sick child needs,
To keep her snug,
From the winter's wind
That blusters and blows
Around the house
Of the good, old farmer
Who is taking good care
Of the little city tot
Until she has WON
THE LONG, HARRY SIGHT
Against her arch enemy
CONSUMPTION.
She is winning the battle.
The doctors say,
And after NEXT SUMMER
Has come and gone
She'll be healthy and strong
And able to stand
THE CITY LIFE.
So I know that you
Are GLAD with me
That we had the chance
AND THE JOY
Of giving pennies
To LITTLE CELESTE.
The university of the movement stresses in every socialist's mind the sense of brotherhood and the call to arm the comrade, without regard to his station in life—man and woman, white and black, rich and poor, Northerner and Southerner, congressman and senator, foreigner and foreigner for one another, "and were the President a Socialist he would be a comrade for the most obseure member in the land. The word "foreigner" was used for our enemies amongst Socialists—all are comrades. This practise would not be worth much if it were superficial or perfunctory; its use is to deepen the sense of oneness—the brotherhood reciprocity; the service and the principle that the gulf which separates minister of state from peasant is not to be considered in the light of the oneness of humanity which does not anything shister, beyond the red flag of international peasant.
Justice and equality of opportunity are of the very foundation of Socialism and I think the time quite awakened for the weakened American to these potent facts, and cause wasting his political strength and moral support upon bodies of people who use him when he can be used to their own ends. Some reader will say he talks that way because he is a socialist? Wrong! I became a Socialist rather because I saw that this is a weaker socialist. Sincerely yours. GEORGE FRAZIER MULLEI least, of the brethren, calls for recognition.
2. Cure? This demand must be presented? This call answered. We might as well learn first as later, before disaster instead of after disaster of the Negro question short ofaster—that there is no settlement of equality and brotherhood. The white man cannot afford to offer the black man cannot afford to accept, anything less. Still today it as true as yesterday that "A house divided against itself cannot stand."

Miss Distance Surprises Friends.
Miss Edna Distance had been a competent linotype operator in the office of the Afro-American for some time. When she left squeezed tightly her pay envelope last Saturday it was with a cheery goodbye that made everyone expectant that she would be one of the first employees on hand last Monday morning.
All showed up last Monday with the exception of the cheerful linotype operator "She shook her sick" and everybody, the lady, unlike some men before the fateful July 1, being in the habit of being to work regularly and on time. Dinner-time came and Mr. Lewis N Frisby was sent over to the young 'ady's home, at 1007 St. Joseph Street, to ascertain the cause of her absence.
"I was married last Saturday afternoon," the startling information that greet Mr. Frisby. "My husband and I are now busy packing our trunks, as we leave for our future home in Detroit this afternoon."
Further questioning brought out the fact that the lucky groom was Mr. Richard Montgomery, who served in France with the 808th Pioneer Infantry Regiment. The soldier who is responsible for the changing of the bride's name from Miss Distance to Mrs. Montgomery, is now at a distance with her at their future home which Henry Ford's flivers helped make famous. And this is the story, dear reader, of how the Afro-American lost a good worker and Soldier Montgomery won a good wife."

E. Church came to a close last week. Large crowds were present all day. Rev. J. R. Nelson was in charge.

Church last Sunday night, his theme being "God Waiting Man's Answer." Rev. Matthias Williams, of Mr. Zion M. E. Church, preached a special sermon at Payne Memorial M. E.

A powerful drama of the Great American Northwest, into which has been deftly interwoven the most subtle of all American problems, the race question.
The full story of the Home Steader cannot be given in words. You must see it on the screen, but we will try do the best do we can.
Agnes Stewart, a Scotch girl, and daughter of a rescue renter on a peice of wild land on the Rosebud Indian Reservation. Se. Dak., becomes lost in a terrific blizzard and is saved only through the providence of her horse finding a lonly and deserted sod house. Inside, hours later, she is awakened suddenly by a cry in the night. Going outside, she finds and rescues a man, who proves to be a Negro, and who upon regaining consciousness, tells her a wied story which in after months has a Strange sequence, making this one of the most mysterious and absorbing photoplays ever screened.
