ANNIVERSARY AT MT. ZION BAPTIST CHURCH, SUNDAY, JUNE 6TH, 1915. Sermon by Pastor Hill. Mrs. Carrie Moore Taylor, the far famed Contralto, will sing. Dr. J. T. Hill will sing Randigers, "Save Me, O God." Those who have not heard him, hear him Sunday. Big Baptizing. The Mt. Zion Baptist church is one of the old land marks of the city and is situated in the place where the greatest good can be done. About a year ago, internal strife shook the old church and its very existence was a question, even in the minds of those who wished otherwise. Two-thirds of the membership left the church. Dr. Hill, the former pastor, had closed his appointments and came to Los Angeles just in time to be thrown back into harness, to save the institution, which was the idol of his heart.
It was indeed sad, when men and women would begin to tell

Pastor of the Church. the story of the great strife, to see them break down, hang upon the neck and shoulders of their former pastor, and beg him to come to them and save their church from utter ruin. The situation was dark, and the Holy Spirit was needed to give light and guidance. The call was given, and accepted. Dr. Hill beginning his work on the first Sunday in June, 1914. Peace and harmony were restored, men and women were born into the kingdom, others in great numbers were reclaimed and the work generally began to show signs of great progress. Within 12 months we have almost reached the place where we once were in numbers and influence, and the church with its

many auxilliaries touches human life and conditions along all lines.
The progress of which we have spoken is not due to the efforts of the pastor alone, for he is surrounded by a force of faithful men and women who in many in-
stances have made great sacrifice of time and money to make the work a success. The deacon board is a unit, possessing a one-ness of mind seldom seen in men. The members of the board are G. W. Randolph, A. Caviness, F. K. Polk, W. M. H. Richardson, Jas. Robinson, Johnson Shells, Nelson Albritton. The trustee board has been a great held to the progress and general uplift of the church by attending to business in a real business like way. Bro. W. W. Gay is chairman of this board and the other four members are T. A. Torrence, M. D. Fredia, M. P. Wright and Frank Douglas. Each man was chosen on account of the business exemplified by him. The Sunday school is well regulated with a strong staff of teachers, and a host of eager students. Winston W. Gay, supt.; M. R. Caviness, ast. supt.; M. R. Torrence, secy.; Sister Idell Albritton, asst. secy.; Priscilla Johnson, treas.
The Missionary Society has done a great work this year in addition to its regular mission work, (home, and foreign), it has spent $200.00 in beautifying the interior of the church. Sister B. R. James is the president of this society. The other members are as follows: Ethel Banks, vice-pres.; B. Rislor, 2nd vice-pres.; J. Dyson, secy.; M. R. Torrence, treas.
The Ladies' Aid under the leadership of Mrs. J. Dyson is a new organization, but it has already taken a place among the useful organizations of the church. Mrs. Shells and Patrick are active workers in this organization.
The Literary Society, known as the "Get Together Club," on account of the most excellent programs rendered, has been styled

one among the most helpful for our young men and women. Prof. C. A. Biggers is at the head of this society and his very name is a guarantee of success and efficiency. He is also the president of the only Negro business college on this side of the Rockies. The church has made arrangements with Prof. Biggers to make special discount to all students recommended by the pastor of Mt. Zion. Prof. Biggers is also at the head of the employment bureau of the church; and those seeking employment would do well to visit Mt. Zion and have a talk with him, or phone Main 2662.

of T. A. Torrence is spoken of as one of the best choirs in the west. In order to avoid different colors of dress, etc., the choir voted to dress uniformly, and each Sunday the stand is filled with singers that help to bring the minds of the congregation to a oneness by the oneness of dress. We have individual singers that rank among the best in the entire country. Among them, Miss

The Parents Association (undenominational) is one of the young organizations of the church, but already the neighborhood feels its power. Some of the best speakers in the city have delivered addresses to the fathers and mothers, advising as to the rearing of children.
Sister A. E. Weber, who is an ardent worker, a loyal christian and a loving mother, is at the head of this organization, and she presides with becoming modesty and dignity. Mr. J. H. Johnson, Mrs. Hattie Wilkerson, Mrs. L. B. Patrick and Geo. W. Randolph are officers in this association.

The Benevolent Society of the church is a great help to those who can only afford a small sum to protect themselves against the day of sickness and death. This society arranges to give some-
thing each week when sick and fifty dollars at death. It pays only $30.00 now at death but as the number of members increases the death claim will be $50.00. The officers of this society are: W. W. Gay, Pres; A. A. Caviness, V. P.; Geo W. Randolph, chaslin; Sister M. R. Caviness, Sec'y; Sister J. Carter, Treasurer.
Sunday will be splendidly observed as an aniversary day. Dr. Hill, the pastor, preaching in the morning. Mrs. Carrie Moore Taylor, the leading contralto of the west will sing the solo in Hark, Hark, My Soul. J. T. Hill has been prevailed upon to do what he has never done in any of the colored churches, i. e., to sing a bass solo at the morning service. Come and hear these soloists backed by a strong vested choir.
The prayer meetings are under the supervision of Deacon A. A. Caviness. The plan of these meetings this year will be that different Wednesday nights will be taken up by different auxiliaries.
We have inaugurated a Spanish and Mexican department under Rev. Archie Williams, assisted by Sister Mary Johnson. Bro. Willilams and Sister Johnson, speak the language fluently and a great Mexican congregation is being worked up and will be put under the exclusive care of these servants of God.

CALIFORNIA INVITES THE WORLD
By Prof. Charles Alexander On the western edge of the North American Continent, lashed by the restles waves of the great Pacific Ocean on one side and by an immense island-dotted bay almost surrounding it on the other, in a remarkably congenial climate, a vertiable garden-spot of enchanting loveliness, is located San Francisco, the city of hills. In the most favored section of this city has been planted the Panama-Pacific International Exposition. A visit to this Exposition is calculated to broaden the minds of visitors, creating greater social sympathies among them, harmonizing geographical and international view points and rendering it easy to realize the brotherhood among men.
It would he a serious misfortune to the Colored people of the United States if they should for any reason be deterred from visiting this magnificent Exposition; and especially on account of the misleading and erroneous report circulated recently that the attitude of the citizens of San Francisco and the Exposition is unfriendly, hostile and antagonistic toward them.
Knowing the sensitive nature of our people and realizing how easy it is to create the timorus spirit among them on questions of discrimination and prejudice. I have thought it wise to send forth this frank statement concerning the situation here in San Francisco. Nearly everywhere in this country questions of segregation discrimination and prejudice are engrossing the attention of leaders, and I would say our people embarassment and humiliation wherever it is possible. To those who have decided to visit the Exposition and to those who have not yet fully contemplated that pleasure, be it understood: That San Francisco is a big cosmopolitan city. A city made up of all sorts and conditions of men. It is more liberal in sentiment, and less provincial in racial matters than either Chicago or New York. Representatives of a great number of races are seen daily on the streets. Little racial antipathy or animosity is observable in the conduct of the people in public places, notwithstanding the incongruous, dissimilar and heterogeneous character of the population. Indeed, San Francisco, is singularly free from racial friction as compared with other cities.

are stronger against us than against any other race. Everywhere we are singled out and discriminated against. Whether we be black as a crow, or whether we are seven-eighths white, there is no race in the history of the world that has had so many obstacles and difficulties to confront as our race has. The Jap, the Chinaman, and even the Indian have practically no barriers against them. It matters not how low or ignorant, they are accorded a man's chance, while the colored man, however intelligent and refined he may be, yet he is discriminated against on or at every turn. So now Mr. Business man clean up and treat your business right and you will have no trouble in getting customers and holding them, and let us build up our own race. What I have said is true, but some times its "crushed to earth but will rise again."
Some of the Reasons Why.
We hear much these days about colored people not patronizing colored enterprises. As this is a barbed wire fence you have to be on one side or the other. So I spent a day visiting places operated, owned and controlled by colored people, and this is what I found. floors not swept, clerks sitting down, windows dirty, dust on the goods, no advertising in the papers or otherwise; subscribing for no colored papers, and willing and ready to tell you why advertising does not pay, and clerks fail to get up if they think you do not want to buy something, but will begin to tell you what they did "back East." And some of the restaurants look more like a glue factory than do like a place in which to eat; some of the barber shop floors look more like a garage than anything else, and when they cut a head of hair they sweep it under the chair to make you think they are doing business, and if you don't watch them they will use a towel on three or four customers before they change it, and in some of the printing offices if they make mistakes they want you to pay just the same, because they are colored. And these are a few of the many reasons why they do not patronize your business as they should. See how polite the Jew is; see how the Jap cleans up; notice the Chinaman's decorations; watch the Italian rub his fruit; and see how the colored man keeps the other man's place of business clean. The fact of the matter is that many colored business men have neither kept pace with the broadening and discriminating tastes of the colored customers, nor with the specialized efforts of their white competitors. It is a far cry from sentiment to business. This is an age of specialized selling methods, and the colored merchant must fall in or fall out. So fall in and not out. But what can you expect when your own leaders will not help. Some weeks ago a preacher was trying to get every member of his church to subscribe for a paper of another race; yet he lives on you. When he knows that prejudice and hate

The Y. M. A. had a good show Friday at the auditorium of the Y. M. C. A., but we do not believe it is the thing to do as it was done by some of the churches. They advertised in them. I do not think that the church of God ought to advertise a minstrel and vaudeville show in a case of that kind. Think about "What would Jesus do".
James Williams died in Los Angeles Monday at 7 a.m. He came here many years ago from Atlanta, Ga.; he was born in South Carolina in 1861-54 years ago. He roomed at 36 E, Colorado street, and for a long time did janitor work in this city; he was taken sick some weeks ago and he went to Los Angeles in search of health, but he never gaied it. He was a faithful Christian and he died in the faith. He had a beautiful home on S, Raymond, which he sold a few myths ago to Mr. E. W. Brackett. He is survived by a mother and son, but both are in the E4st: he was buried Thursday afternoon.
They did not tender him a banquet, Mr. W. E. Easton on his return We believe that Los Angeles county should have given Mr. Wood, Mr. Tyler, Ceruti and H. E. MacBeth recognition for their services rendered, as these gentlemen do much to keep the colored people on the map in California. I believe honor should be given to whom honor is due. But, on the contrary, our race is to the opposite, for they have been taught for generations to mistrust one another No matter what might be his ability, like Banquo's ghost, this feeling will not go down. Just remember what they tried to do to Booker T. Washington, even a 2nd preacher in the country knocked him. Some one has said that Mrs. Eloise Bibb Thompson writes the Jim Crow section of the Tribune I believe that her writing has done more good toward the advancement than all the resolutions that have been passed by the colored people in Los Angeles since aunt Biddie Mason came from Hancock county, Georgia. The same thing has been said about the secretary of the Y. M. C. A., who everybody knows, has made good, so let us our duty as we see it, for chief Sams will have his following as well as Booker T. Washington. I remember you can't make a success unless you make enemies.

To the Unions
Of the B. Y. P. U. Federation Greetings.
Venice. Cal., June 3rd, 1015.—The next meeting of the federation will be held June 20th, 1915 with the B. Y. P. U. of the First Baptist church, Venice, Cal.
I hope you will notice the importance of this meeting, it being our last session before the convention convenes.
The B. Y. P. U. at Venice is making a strenuous effort to raise $100 to donate to the church when their new edifice is begun, and for that reason the president of that Union has prevailed upon me to secure the co-operation of all the unions on the date of our next meeting.
At our last meeting a motion prevailed to the effect that the entire contribution on that date be given to the Venice B. Y. P. U. Therefore let us come prepared to gladden the hearts of those few struggling people by lifting at least a part of the load from their shoulders. One of the Los Angeles ministers will preach their rally sermon. A mixed programme composed of numbers representing the federation as well as the local union will be presented, and free luncheon will be served to visitors.
This will truly be a day of thanksgiving, being a continuous service from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Hoping you will lend your assistances individually and collectively, I am, yours, for Christian uplift.
J. ALLEN REESE,
President B. Y. P. U. Federation
Years have passed and now we see him,
On him's turned the strongest light;
Every race is represented—
Black, brown, yellow, red and white;
And they call him now a problem,
Yes, a problem yet unsolved.
For there's One not been consulted
And in it He is involved.
There's a rise and fall of nations
But dispute it if you can.
There is just one God and Father
And the brotherhood of man
Ten tenths blood of pure Caucasian
This it takes to make you white.
But one drop of Negro blood is,
Just the same, as black as night.
Black, brown, yellow, red and white;
And they call him now a problem,
Yes, a problem yet unsolved.
For there's One not been consulted
And in it He is involved.
There's a rise and fall of nations
But dispute it if you can.
There is just one God and Father
And the brotherhood of man
Ten tenths blood of pure Caucasian
This it takes to make you white.
But one drop of Negro blood is,
Just the same, as black as night.
For this stamp was put upon him
And so let it thus remain
For what is the use contending?
All contention is in vain
It is said ten million Negroes
On this firm, free land doth stand
God inspires them to mount upward
Though chains bind both foot and hand,
Read his crime in boldest letters
Negro, and no question then
And we own him, our heads bowing
Grieved to know we have such men;
On the other hand in turning
We can point with pride to those
Who thought it worth while in striving
And to fame and honor rose
Dumas, known as the French novelist,
He his Negro blood could trace;
Tanner, artist known so widely,
Who has won himself a place;
Yes, and there's the "Black Napoleon,
Brave Toussaint L'Overture
And the great Edmonia Lewis,
Sculptress, whose work will endure.
And we claim E. Coolerige Taylor,
Dunbar, though he's dead, still lives;
Booker Washington we all know
For his race, his life doth live,
Bishop Grant in sermons, lectures,
Dubois, John H. Jackson, true
Chestnut, Vernon, trace e'en Poushkin,
Browning, many others too.
Great Rome had her gladiators
And of them was very proud;
We care nothing for the prize-ring,
But since it has been allowed
Why not then applaud the winner?
Whether white or dusky man?
The survival of the fittest
It is the rule and it will stand.
This would be a grander nation
With the goodness that's innate,
It would be a perfect haven
But the prejudice too great
There are friends who say come, onward!
Join us in life's great combat;
Though your skin be dark, what matter?
You're a man e'en for all that.
And we're using every effort
To make good where e'er we trod,
One hand with the flag a waving
And the other stretched to God.

The people can go on in the evened tenor of their way and get ready for the next battle which comes about October 25th.
THE RESULT
The campagin just closed which resulted in the election of Mr. Sebastian to serve as mayor for this city for the ensuing year in many ways was the most remarkable and sensational one ever conducted in this city and after the result has been known, although we were not with the victor, as good citizens, we must now bow in humble acquiescence to the verdict of the majority. The majority of four thousand old, will indicate that the colored voters 75 per cent of whom gave the chief a loyal support, should have great credit for his election and certainly should receive at the hands of his administration, the fullest recognition. The Eagle has no regrets for our support of Mr. Whiffen and are sure that we would have received from him the fullest recognition in the event of his election and we now trust that the leaders who on various pleas, kept the majority of the colored votes in line for the chief, will make good with a greater recognition for the colored citizens than we have ever had before.
DISTINGUISHED C. M. E.
CHURCHMAN, REV.
DR. S. L. HARRIS
Joins the Silent Majority on the other side. Hundreds of Sorrowing Friends pay Last Homage of Respect.
Sunday afternoon the sad and tragic news was flashed throughout the city that Dr. S. L. Harris, the former popular pastor of the Newton Street Phillips Chapel, C. M. E. Church was no more, that he had gone to join the silent majority on the other side. At first the news was unbelievable for just a week ago, Dr. Harris charge—leading men and women had closed a Revival ta his old to take a higher stand in Christian living. But today all that is mortal of this distinct wished churchman who planted the Banner of Colored Methodism here in the farthest Pacific Southeast is no more. Yes our Friend, Brother and Co-Laborer in the minisury
THE
the Los Angeles Ministers. Federation assembled in Solemn conclave, to pay the last sad Rites to one of their number who had been called from labor to reward, long before the hour for the funeral services to begin, Phillip Chapel was crowded with sorrowing friends who came to pay tribute to the Sainted dead. The remains having laid in state and was viewed by hundreds. At 1:30 Presiding Elder Jas. A. Stout, of C. M. E. Church of the Los Angeles District opened the services in which he paid a tender tribute to the memory of his fallen associate as a great preacher, a devoted husband, a loving father, a good citizen, a loyal churchman. The fountains of sorrow were broken as the choir sang "Servant of God Well Done" and Rev. Dr. J. Gordon McPherson read the Scripture "lesson from the ninetieth Psalms with E. Edwards, of the Second A. M. E. Church offered a fervent prayer. The choir chanted "Asleep in Jesus" which was followed the reading of Resolutions from the Ministers Inter-denominational Federation, by Prof. A. J. Williams. Resolutions of Condolence from the Baptist Pastors Union were read by Rev. Dr. W.H. Tilman of St. Paul Baptist Church, then followed the Resolutions from the various auxillaries of the Phillips Chapel C. M. E. Church. The Board of Stewards, Sunday School, Epworth League and choir. Mr. and Mrs. John Hall sang sweetly the duet "Death is only a Dream". Dr. James A. Stout read a Resolution of Condolence from Sunday School and Epworth League Conventions, which are in session at El Centro. Rev. Dr. N. P. Greggs, of First A. M. E. Church read the Obituary on the life and character of the deceased. The Rev. O. T. Wormath of Long View, Texas, an associate of the late Dr. Harris, paid a fitting tribute to the memory of the deceased in which he eulogized him as a Prince in Israel. The funeral oration was delivered by Rev. J. R. Rector, Pastor of Phillips Chapel C. M. E. Church, Santa Monica, from the words "O Death Where is thy Sting!" Dr. E. W. Kinchen of the Wesely Chapel M. E. Church, a personal friend of the deceased spoke tenderly of their relations as Co-Laborers together in the Master's Vinyard. Rev. A. C. Williams sang with wonderful effect "My Saviour first All". The closing remark by Dr. Stout as the choir softly chanted "Shall we gather at the River". Hundreds of sorrowing friends passed the Bearier and took the last look in to the face of the deceased, after which the funeral cortage, was formed and wended its way to the beautiful Rosedale Cemetary, where all that was mortal of the Late Rev. Dr. S. L. Harris, was consigned to mother earth beneath a bank of flowers. The tender tokens of loving friends to await the triumphet Call in the Resurrection Morn. Roberts and Sons funeral directors were in charge and the following ministers representing the Ministers Federation acted as Pall Bearers: Drs. J. T. Hill, W. J. J. Byers, W. H. Washington, D. L. Mc Mickens, A. C. Williams and J. B. Holmes.
The deceased leaves a widow, Mrs, S.; L. Harris, three daughters, two sons and a host of friends to mourn his death. The Eagle editorial staff joins with thousands of sympathetic friends in tendering our deepest sympathy in their sad hour of bereavement and point them to him who said "I will not leave you comfortless."

Rev. T. M. Davis of Oakland, who has been visiting his friends, Rev. J. D. Gordon, for the past week, was the guest of Editor and Mrs. J. B. Bass last Sunday at tea. It is needless to say that a very enjoyable few hours were spent by the trio. Rev. Davis is a very splendid young minister, having finished theology in one of our leading eastern universities, and for a number of years filled some of the best pulpits in the cast and middle west. A few years ago he come with his excellent little family to California where he hoped to be of even greater service for the Master. But California is not yet awake to the crying need of "souls for Christ" and Rev. Davis is yet awaiting the crucial hour when he can, as it were, roll up his spiritual sleeves and make the fight for man's salvation. Mrs. Susie Jeta Davis, wife of Rev. Davis, is the daughter of Rev. Jeta of Newport, R. I., more than twenty years a minister at the same church in the same town. Mrs. Davis is master at the piano, and an elocutionist of striking ability.

California Invites The World Continued from Page 1
On the Exposition grounds, the most generous and cordial spirit prevails among the visitors and natives; and here one sees for himself the gathering together of many strange peoples, arrayed in picturesque garbs, speaking unfamiliar languages and betraying peculiar traits of character. This wonderful sight inspires the belief that the time is not remote when universal peace will be realized, notwithstanding the terrible conflict now raging in Europe.
The races, in order to reach some common ground, in order to arrive at some mutual understanding, must come together in this fashion, confer and get acquainted with each other, and this Exposition is performing the beneficent mission of introducing the representatives of various races to each on a larger scale than has ever been done before.
Now as to accommodations for Colored people in San Francisco. It is not true that our people are discriminated against as has been stated in the Eastern newspapers. Let all who will, come, and you will be given a hearty welcome. First class accommodations at reasonable rates can be secured in all parts of the city. If any of our readers contemplate the trip to the Exposition it would be well to write to Prof. Charles Alexander, 1299 Hyde Street, San Francisco, California, for literature and full information. He is prepared to answer all questions relating to the Exposition and accommodations.
Our educators and leaders ev-
crywhere should avail themselves of the benefits of this wonderful display of skill and genius of the world. The educational value of this Exposition is inestimable The arrangement of the spacious palaces in which the exhibits are installed and the tower of Jewels, scintillating day and night with a wealth of unsurpassing beauty, furnishes a feast for the mind and soul as helpful and inspiring as anything that has ever happened in the history of our country.
Venice, Ocean Park, Santa Monica
Rev. W. A. Carter of Seattle, Wash., was a visitor to the beach Sunday. The Rev. called on Bro. Eassly and family, who were members of his church in the northern city.
The Eastern Star of Santa Monica entertained with a program on Friday evening, at the residence of Mrs. S. A. Wright, on Sixth near Santa Monica boulevard.
Miss Viola Hammond, a charming young lady, niece of Mrs. J. A. Trimble, is spending some time with her aunt on Broadway ave. Venice.
Mr. E. Reese has purchased the residence at 546 San Juan'avenue, a 5-room bungalow, and offers it for rent at a very reasonable figure
J. P. Mason, who for some time has resided in Santa Monica is now at Monrovia. Much to his regret M. Mason's health forced him from the beach.
Ocean View lodge No. 15 K. of P. have elected Sir Knights D. B. Sheffield and Walter McNeal to represent it at the grand lodge to be held at Riverside.
Mrs. Jennie Reese is in Los Angeles spending a while with her daughter, Mrs. Fanny Adams.
Mr. Hy Gadson and Miss Henrietta Heron of El Paso, Texas, were united in marriage by Rev. Anderson, at the residence of Mr. J. A. Trimble on May 15, 1915. Miss Heron made a very beautiful bride, as smiles of felicity crept across her cheerful visage. Mr. and Mrs. Gadson left for San Diego and from there to San Francisco, then back to Venice to reside.
On last Sunday Rev, J, D. Gordon, his congregation, choir and their brass band were met at Venice by Messrs. Sercey, Brown, Nichols and J. Reese, and escorted to the home of Mrs. Middlebrooks, where in her rear yard, under the trees loaded with fruit, a table 35 feet long had been dressed especially for the guests, the occasion being rally No.1 of the First Baptist church. Mrs. S. L. Niehols is captain of this club, and was hostess to this mass of humanity that came to encourage and advance the Venice church.
Rev. Gordon preached from Rev. second chapter, 1-14 verse. Aud indeed the sermon was a neat one. The choir sang, the band played and the friends of the church placed upon the table $40,06 as an appreciation of the Christian treatment received at the hands of Mrs. Nichols and her corps of workers.
It is with delight that we herald the news that a certain club in Venice has dissolved. We appreciate the fact that the former club membership have found no virtue in "turning tricks" when their valuable time could be applied at study, or for financial gain. Let those whose ambition is to be a champion whist player press forward, and the Venice population will move onward, turning time into dollars. At 50 years of age who will be the successful competitor?
Mr. Heard's home in Santa Monica was destroyed by fire on Wednesday. It was impossible to learn the extent of her loss. Mrs. Isaacs Liggins is among the sick this week. Her condition is reported quite serious.
HANFORD ITEMS
Mrs. Julia shores, DGMG of the Household of Ruth in this State, made her official visit to the Sunny West lodge, No. 4948, while en route to her home in Oakland, on
monday may 24th. Light refreshments were served in her honor after the close of the evening session.
Rev. Wm Blakney is again home with his family, after being up north for a number of months.
The commencement exercises of the high school will be at the Hanford Opera House Thursday evening. Among the graduates is Miss Florence Welcher, daughter of mr and Mrs John Welcher. We feel proud of Miss Welcher and wish her much success in whatever she may decide to take up in her life work. She is also an accomplished musician and one of the leaders in her class in school..
Rev T A mceachen is home from Sacramento.
Mr Turner, a resident of the the island, died Sunday rather suddenly; he had been in poor health for a long while; he leaves a wife here; his remains will be in interred in the Lemoore cemetery.
MISS LORENZA JORDAN
In the city of Los Angeles as representatives in the schools and academies we have a few young men and women of whom we are wont to boast, and to predict for them futures that will redound to the glory and honor of the race, and conspicuous among them is seventeen-year-old Lorenza Jordan.
Miss Jordan is not a stranger to the general public, but this is her first appearance in recital. She is a young girl with rare ability and a musical genius. Those who have heard her perform on the piano on less conspicuous occasions will want to hear her in this, her first piano recital.
In the L. A. High school, where she is a student, she has attracted close attention of teachers and pupils as one of the best music students in the school. This week her original composition attracted attention at the Harmony concert at the school Tuesday, she being the only Colored student on the program.
Because of her push and pluck Miss Jordan is waging her way. Her plans for entering the Boston Conservatory are already laid, and we predict that this road will lead to Berlin.
Those who avail themselves of the opportunity of attending "the Jordan piano recitay" will not only help and encourage a young girl of the race, who is making the fight, but every young boy and girl with the same or similar ambition.
Miss Jordan will be assisted by Miss Minnie Albritton as soloist and Mrs. G. L. Williams as dramatic reader. Don't forget that the concert is June 29 at First A. M. E. church.

DREAMLAND RINK-THE SCENE OF GREAT OLD TIME UNION REVI-
VAL MEETINGS
Rev. Dr. J. Gordon McPherson, Preaching Powerful Sermons Nightly to Enthusiastic Audiences of Both Races.
There is an old saying "If a man can write a better book or preach a better sermon, or make a better mouse trap than his neighbor, though his hut be in the forest, the world will make a beaten path to his door". This statement holds good in reference to the great Memorial Day Services on last Sunday afternoon in old Dreamland Rink on East fifteenth and Central Avenue, where several hundreds of the most representative race men and women assembled to pay honor to the nations heroic dead and enjoy an excellent program of music, song and orations.
The principle address of this occasion was delivered by Comrade A. C. Shafer, a Grand Army Veteran and Prof. W. E. Easton, who paid an eloquent tribute to the Black Heroes. The famous Hall California Jubilee Singers enlivened the occasion with many of their popular vocal selections. It is hoped that on the second Sunday evening that these sweet voiced singers will give a sacred concert and Dr. McPherson will give his famous war lecture on the Daring Charge of the Black Regiment at San Juan Hill. During the week a large number of both white and colored people have been profited attendants at the old time revival meetings that have been in progress nightly in the Rink, where Dr. J. Gordon McPherson has been preaching the most powerful sefmons of his life. A big Saturday night meeting is planned with special illustrated songs. "Where is my Wandering Boy". Beautiful stereopticon views with use of a strong lantern will illustrate the song. Dr. McPherson will preach the "Gamblers Sermon" on the deck of cards. This wonderful sermon is taken from life and teaches a powerful lesson. Dreamland Rink should be crowded next Saturday night with praying men and women. Big Sun Rise prayer meeting at 5 o'clock. A feast at six for the Saints of God.
At 2:30 o'clock, big re-union services of Minister and Christians. Let the people of God get together. Dr. McPherson will give his great booze sermon. At the evening services he will speak on "The Devil and Spiritualism." He invites all who are interested in Spiritualism to be present. The "Holy City" will be sang and beautifully illustrated. A warm welcome awaits every one. Come early to secure seats.

St. Philip's Parish Church.
Dinner will be served for the first time on Sunday June 13, at 25 cents, from 1 to 5 p. m.
East 8th St. Christian Church.
Last Sunday all services were well attended. The pastor, Rev. D. D. McMickens, preached at both the morning and evening service. In the morning he preached from I John, 5-10, subject "The Evidence of Pardon." The best evidence we have of knowing our sins have been forgiven is our obedience to the will of God. God saves us only on condition which is, to believe, repent, confess and be baptised. If we don't abide by this
condition, then we can not have the evidence of pardon. The Spirit beareth witness with our spirit that we are the sons of God is another evidence.
In the evening he preached from Rev. 2, 66-v. "A Letter to the Church at Ephesus." This sermon was quite helpful and was very good. Space will not permit comment on this sermon. We are looking forward to two excellent sermons by the pastor on Sunday, June the 6th.
There will be a children's day exercise at 2:30 p. m. by the children. All are invited to attend.
JUANITA BAUSLEY, Reporter.
Second Baptist Church
Rev. R. N.Holt, A. B.
Of Tulsa, Okla., will preach at 11 a. m. and 8 p. m. You will miss a great treat not to hear him. All are welcome. Rev. E. A. Wilson who was to have been with us last Sunday could not do so, but will be with us in August. He is now carrying on a revival in Galveston, Texas where, in four days, 70 souls were converted and yet they come. So other people would not let the great preacher go.
IN MEMORIAM
Rt. Rev. Henry M. Turner, D.C.L.
Friends and admirers and African Methodists of Los Angeles are invited to be present at Ward's A. M. E. Church, Sunday aftermoon, 3 o'clock, June 6th, 1915. Life and Works of Bishop Turner, by Revs. Edwards and McKenney; solos and duets by Mr. E. Hall and Mrs. F. F. Moten and daughter, Etta G. The choir of the church will lead in singing. Bishop Turner was worthy of any honor that can be bestowed upon him. Bring the children and young people that they may learn of this great man. Sermon will be delivered by the pastor, Dr. F. F. Moten.
Providence Institutional Church
There will be great services at Providence church at both services next Sunday. Hear Pastor Williams tell the sweet story of the Cross in his earnest and convincing manner. Subject, morning, "Christ meeting men," evening, "My Rock and My Salvation." Roy Albright will sing Sunday morning and J. N. King Sunday night. Hear the great choir and organ.
At the A. M. E. Zion church last Sunday morning Rev. T. M. Davis of Oakland preached an able sermon, and there were two accessions. Sunday evening the pastor preached and there was one occasion. There is a general growing interest in all of the departments of the church and a decided improvement in the choir under the efficient direction of Mrs. Jannie Williams Holmes as its new directress. Sunday the holy communion will be administered at both services, and there will be a baptismal service in the morning. July the 6tn is taken by the church to dramatically present at Gamut Auditorium over the rain bow a cantata for young singers by 100 Los Angeles school children. Look for further particulars through these columns.
Masonic Celebration
The Alpine lodge No. 1 and Eureka lodge No. 3, and Alpine chapter No. 4 O. E. S., F & A. M. will celebrate their annual thanksgiving day on June 20th, 1915, at Phillip's chapel C. M. E. church. A strong committee has in charge the arrangement of the program and a treat is in store for all who will avail themselves of the opportunity of attending this service. The service will be characterized by splendid addresses, good music and a strong sermon. Full particulars will be given later.
