Knights and Daughters of Tabor Assemble In Los Angeles and Instatute Grand Session for Calif. and Ariz. Colored Citizen's Protest Treatment of School Children. Colored Citizen's Protest Treatment of School Children. Knights In Colored Citizen's of School COLORED GRADUATES FROM THE SEVERAL HIGH SCHOOLS OF LOS ANGELES Among the many graduates from the several High schools of this city there were but nine Colored representatives. From Manual Arts, Idella Albritton, Dela Dogins, Frances Brown. From Polytechnic High—Clarence Brown, Nellie Kay. Los Angeles High—The Rev. Geo. Ramsey, Yolande McCullough. Lincoln High—Clotilde Bennett. Hollywood High—Edna Johnson. To these who have persevered and finished the high school course we extend our hearty and heartfelt congratulations. But we are wont to ask and answer the question why aren't there a greater number than this few? When we think of the large Colored population in Los Angeles we realize that this is a small proportion. It is generally known that the American Colored people have demonstrated a greater desire for education than any other opportunity offered by freedom. When our attention was first called, a few years ago, to the small number of Colored graduates from the high schools we were grieved to think that the young Colored American was losing his desire for education, but this idea has been eradicated and we are beginning to contribute the lack of ambition for higher education to a greater and deeper cause than lack of energy on his part. Treatment of Colored Students in Public Schools. It seems that a peculiar method of discrimination against Colored students has been going on for a few years in the public schools, especially high, such as segregation on public occasions. At commencement time we are told that the teacher asks white pupils if they would mind sitting, standing or marching with a Colored boy or girl. In fact, but a few days ago the author of the "Colored Graduate" whose scholarship ranks high in a class of two hundred was humiliated and forced to march in the line alone because there were only three Colored girls and necessary an odd partner. On Thursday the Colored boys who graduated from Manual Arts were on the probram in special "Ragtime Performance," and when called to play this part it was clearly stated by those in authority that they represented the Colored American. When questioned as to why they did not aspire to something higher with which to represent the race, we were told that in order to appear at all, this was what the teachers at large suggested for Colored stu ```markdown ``` Los Angeles, San Francisco and Oakland, Cal., June 26, 1915 dents. "They don't want us to aspire to the classics in art," said one girl, blushing with shame at her own pitiable plight. We are not writing wholly from hearsay, for after hearing much concerning the treatment of Colored students we had occasion to make some investigation, and found that "the half had never been told." Now we are not suggesting anything that would seem non-American or unchristian, but we do veritably believe that the time has come that the Colored American must not beg for but demand better treatment in the walks of educational and commercial pursuits. How to Get Better Conditions We can not even hope for better conditions from without until we have better conditions from within. In spite of the fact that the world is growing colder each day on account of lack of love, money speaks louder than any other substance on earth, and until the Colored American sees the great need of getting more wealth and less pleasure he must take second place for his children in schools and himself everywhere. The white man knows we are not together, that we have little or no respect for race enterprises, that we would rather knock than to boost each other. So we suggest a grand reunion or getting together in all walks. Be not deceived, the white man is not blind, when he knows that thirty thousand Colored Americans demand better treatment in the public schools he is helping to sustain, and for himself in commercial walks he will begin to reckon with the Negro as man to man and not as a child to whom you would pass a stick of candy with the hope of appeasing his spasmodic hurt or desire. THE COLORED GRADUATE. One has said that the two happy instances in the life of a girl is the day she graduates and the day she marries. I now write to correct this statement or to have the kind of girl specified in the statement. If one says this it must be said of the white girl or at least not of the Negro girl in the public schools. One of the most miserable days in my experiences was the three days preceding and including my graduation. I was not miserable because of not being put on the same social basis as those of my white classmates, I was not miserable because of dress, for I was dressed as well as the others, I was only unhappy because not only I but hundreds of my race had experienced and would experience the same things and would be as helpless as I. There were three of us in our class, girls all. This was an odd number. The marches were two by two. Some of the pupils were willing to march with us and some were not. Instead of the teachers insisting that there should be no break in the line and impressing upon them that if they go to public schools they must be willing to come in contact with different races, they made it worse. If the pupils marched with us the teachers would ask them if they minded or wanted to march with us. They were just as particular as the pupils. As a result of the teachers being in league with the prejudiced students the majority of the class began to look upon us as something below them. Remarks and looks out of place were plentiful. We marched two together and one alone. If ever one gets to heaven it will be the Colored girl graduates from the high schools; for they suffer the miseries of the other place right here. We did not care to march with them any more than they did with us, but just the thought of those teachers and pupils that acted as if they were doing us an honor to sit beside us stirs my more animal nature. We are after all human beings and do not think that if God is a just God, which we doubt not, that He made the white man to laugh at the black any more than the white hen to laugh at the black or any other thing. IDELL ALBRITTON, '15 graduate from Manual Arts High. MOSES DICKSON HONORED Probably the most illustrious session for the International Order of Twelve for the California Arizona jurisdiction has just closed. Washington and Central hall was the scene of action. Even though the great session was begun last Sunday at the First A. M. E. church where and when the annual address was fittingly and forcefully delivered by Rev. N. P. Greggs; followed by an address by Chief Mentor of the World, S. A. Jordan of Little Rock, Arkansas. Sunday evening the great body journeyed to Pasadena, where the Pasadena lodges joined them at the Metropolitan church and was timely addressed by the pastor, Rev. Hughs. W. B. RICH sentative body answered to the 9:30 roll call, and from thence until Wednesday morning, the time set for the election of the grand officers a lively session marked the entire affair. The selection of officers as well as the election was carefully and painstakingly worked out. Sir W. B. Rich, who is really responsible for the establishment of the order in this section, was elected Chief Grand Mentor; Mrs. C. Graves, Chief Grand Prececress; Mrs. S. Brown, Rev. W. J. J. Byers Chief Grand Scribe, Paul Alexander Chief Grand Mentor, Miss M. Busby Grand Recorder, Henry Robinson Grand Treasurer, Scott SHEPHERD who was elected Chief Grand Preceptress for California-Arizona Jurisdiction. Smith Grand Presiding Prince, Mrs. Amanda Brown Grand Queen Mother, E. Payne Chief Grand Orator, Mrs. Cyntha Jackson Chief Grand Priestess, Mrs. C. Jones Grand Inner Sentinel, Mrs. M. L. Gottschalk Grand Secretary-Treasurer of Burial Fund, A. L. Tilton Endowment Secretary. Thursday evening, at which time a short literary program, a banquet and the installation were jointly celebrated, perhaps the climax of the entire affair was reached. Both guests and members of the order were gaudily attired, and a spirit of felicity ran wild; everybody, even Sir Rich, "the serious," wore a smile. Rev. Byers delivered a timely welcome address and Sr. Jordan responded touching on the origin of the order and the high principles upon which it was founded. Old Moses Dickson, the slave, in whose heart the idea was born, would have been proud of his children if the curtain of division could have been thrown back and he could have seen. San Jose, Cal., June 22, 1915. The city of Oakland entertained the Baptist state convention last week at the North Oakland church, Rev. G. C. Coleman pastor. Nearly every church in the state was represented; and a splendid company of Christian workers was also in evidence. Anyone would have been sincerely proud of the men in cloth. Their general demeanor reflected genuine credit upon themselves and their churches. The sermons and speeches were of a very high character, and, may I say, their dress was tasty, modest, and becoming. Northern California was really delighted at the sight of so fine a body of men and women of Southern California. There was a warmth of fellowship and missionary spirit pervading the entire session that reminded one of the old conventions of our former states. May the Master's Kingdom increase and many souls be saved. Rev. J. L. Allen and bride are spending this week with the writer. A series of evangelistic meetings are being conducted in Antioch church. Last Sunday was a grand day. The Masons turned out in the evening. The exercises were very impressive and orderly; and a large congregation was present. I simply wanted to give a few observations as a visitor. More next time. J. A. D. The Opening All-Star Concert St. Philip's (Episcopal) Parish Hall, Thursday, July 8 1915, 8 p.m. m. Read this!

The Parish Hall, Thursday, July 8, 1915, 8 p.m. 15 cents Last Friday evening a rarely large gathering was out to hear Mrs. Tyrell. It was probably the first privilege for a goodly number pratent to hear the woman who is recognized by both races as one of the best orators of her sex at this time. On this occasion Mme. Tyrell was as she always is, the optimistic word painter of Negro valor in times of war and peace, and the great progress he has made along the educational. Miss Emma Gurley and Miss Blanche Barner, teachers in the public school of El Paso, Tex., are in the city visiting Miss Mary Bilbor and Miss Rosa Sampson, 1643 E. 22nd at. O. J. Carter, a funeral director of Sao Antonio, Tex., after spending several weeks visiting his mother, Mrs. Sarah Carter, and sister, Miss Rosa Sampson, returned home Thursday morning. Today is an era of many new ideas, new discoveries and customs. As with the men, women, too, have found new fields of labor and service. In many instances the vocation is difficult and foreign from that of her sisters of earlier days; for, altho' considered a sanctitude in her home at that time, yet, to follow and serve Christ openly, was treachery and an unpardonable sin. While principles remain the same, circumstonces and needs have greatly changed. This condition of affairs is more marked in woman than man. Christ calls every young woman to do what she can for the world's work. St. Luke records how Mary sat at Jesus' feet and drank of his word. She "chose the good (good) part." She was listening to the Lord's teachings. She was a disciple, for a disciple is a learner and a supporter. We all need to sit at His feet and learn of Him that we might better serve Him and His. Woman's sphere was once thought to be bounded by the walls of her own home. This is still her own sacred duty and Christ calls her to glorify her home and make it a sanctuary. To conduct a Christian home is her highest service. Although these new opportunities are more extended than ever before, the privilige of giving character and quality to the home, shall always belong to her. But this does not prevent her from accepting other calls and serving in other fields of Christian service at the same time. Christ calls young women to help uplift social life. It is here that she so often treads alone in those dens of sin and vice. Although the cross is heavy, few help to bear it. She takes Jehovah as her helper and the load is lighter borne. He calls the young woman to assist in movements that aim to aid, uplift and redeem fallen humanity as needs may exist. He calls her to do what she can at home and abroad. Sometimes it is only through her that her heathen sisters can hear the word. Christ calls her on every hand to do what she can. To teach, to visit, to sing, to pray; to do volunteer service for Him and His people, and even the little things well Colo. 6763 Morgan, E. P., 614 Winona. Colo. 5105 Morgan, R. W., 786 Winona.

"Is it not a good thing that all white men are not blind to what is fair and reasonable?" This is what the Pampa Tribune said, speaking of the injustice of the measure forbidding Negroes to practice law. There is no valid reason why an honest colored man should not be allowed to practice law or any other profession in Florida, and there is every reason why he should. It is your plant. Do you remember how much you had to pay for your electric light before the city put in our plant? Now you do not pay one-half as much as you did then; and the more that you use it the cheaper it will be to you. Now let us help our commissioners Many friends of Rev. Dyatt were more than proud to see him out on the evening of June 15th in Los Angeles, attending the Fifty Years of Freedom. Rev. Dyatt has made a great record since coming to this city. Hehas few equals and no superiors as a Christian minister. When any person attempts to name the great race men and fails to mention Bishop Turner Wrightt Cuney, or the greatest living Negro in the world, Booker T. Washington, it is like a man trying to make a success in business without ad. vertising, or a woman trying to make a cake without sugar.

The population is 42,000. The building permits in Pasadena this calendar year have aggregated well beyond $2,000,000. There was 419 new houses built last year. So subscribe for The Eagle and learn about Pasadena. There are some race papers come to this city only on friendship but when they want the real news they all ask for The Eagle. That accounts for its phenomenal growth. Few colored men have graduated from Harvard, but Booker T. Washington graduated from Hampton. It is not what we know, but what we do, that makes us great. Do you get me. The lower house of the Florida legislature passed a bill debarring colored lawyers from practicing in the courts of that state, but the upper house will not concur in the resolution. It is the high-ups that are our friends. It is not the low men. Don't forget that Dr. Lussa will speak Tuesday evening at Scott chapel.

Prosperity! Union! Prettyman has got the defeated Whiffen manager into a pretty mess. We have not seen any of those Non-partisan referendum petitions yet. Our people are feeling the brunt of hard times in Los Angeles as usual uncomplainingly. Judge Forbes is a just judge and a man whose Christian spirit permits him to do kindly and considerate things. The gentlemen who sought to have an annex for Negro exhibits at the Panama-Pacific Fair are very quiet these sultry days. It is only in the South that you can find an instance where the Chief Executive, the Governor, fears the fury of a mob of its "good" citizens. Two Colored women charged with pick-pocketing in Los Angeles. This is a novel crime charge against the Colored criminal. The Colored citizens of El Centro, in the fertile Imperial valley, it is learned are not great sufferers because of the recent volcanic disturbance. But a few months ago the Army and Navy were not receiving Negro recruits, now they have special illuminated posters inviting the brave Black man to enlist. Ex-President Roosevelt, Ex-President Taft, William Jennings Bryan and Speaker Champ Clark are all programmed to speak during the hot month at the Fair in San Francisco. Now that the Southern Pacific has purchased Chinatown for railroad yards, a new location is being looked up by the local Chinese. It is quietly rumored that the new location of this settlement of bad odors will be in Precinct 355. Mother Katherin Drexel, who dedicated her millions to the education of the Negro and Indian, has purchased an extensive property in New Orleans for the purpose of establishing an industrial school for the Colored folk. The property purchased is the old Southern University, which had fallen under the hammer. Geel The Board of Supervisors allow $5000 for badges to be worn during the Elk's conclave to be held in this city next month. Why don't they increase the Colored janitor's pay since money is so plentiful with the county that they can afford to buy wholesale lots of "gew-gaws" for decorative purposes_ cellent letter in the Herald advocating a municipal pawn shop. This idea has been in operation not only in Mexico, but also in several European countries, and it has worked to the advantage of the poor who frequently are compelled to raise money by pawning their collateral possessions. GRANDFATHER CLAUSE UNCONSTITUTIONAL The United State Supreme Court has decided that the infamous "grandfather" clause of the Oklahoma constitution is unconstitutional. This decision will be welcomed with a feeling of relief by the race in a number of the Southern States, where by the adoption of the grandfather clause it is hoped to make the disfranchisement of the Negro complete. All men who are opposed to capital punishment will be pleased to learn that Governor Slaton of Georgia has commuted the sentence of Frank, the convicted and sentenced murderer of the girl Mary Phagan; but the "featuring" of "Negro's testimony," has been altogether too strong. It is not the race of a witness that should count. It should be the character and the reputation for veracity and decent living of the witness. As in the Carman murder case, the press sprung the race question on the Colored maid, a woman of good character, whose testimony was so important to the prosecution. Hon. F. H. Mouser is receiving much praise from individuals and through the columns of the press for his brilliant record in the forty-first legislature. In fact, the Labor News places his name first for praise in obtaining legislation favorable to the small tax-payers of the state, and being the author of laws that has increased the revenues of the state without burdening the plain people. And we might add that he was always the Colored citizens' friend, and he was a power in defeating the Alensworth Poly bill which it was feared was a wedge for further "jimcrow" legislation.

It is a remarkable fact that the majority of people are killing themselves by inches in making their life "all work and no play." Now that summer is with us once again, our minds should turn to thoughts of vacation. It is very difficult sometimes to decide just where one wishes to spend his vacation. But if you are thinking of going to the seaside, the problem of WHERE to go is at once solved. No more peaceful, homelike, convenient, and cheerful place can be found than LA BONITA at beautiful Santa Monica by the Sea. At La Bonita you will find: Clean, comfortable, well ventilated rooms and apartments; a complete line of bathing suits and accessories; hot and cold shower beds; a playground for children; a tennis court; and a restaurant presided over by one who knows how to prepare good things to eat. And remember the following facts: That La Bonita is only a very short distance from the ocean—a convenience which beats the crowds of the city. At the same time; that a supper at LA BONITA GAFE will give the finishing touch to an evening automobile ride; that it is the one aim of the management of La Bonita to do everything that will add to the pleasure and comfort of patrons; and that if you take the Vesco Short Line car, you get out at Pico Boillever (formerly Promontory) walk one block east and one half block north.

The picnic was well attended to be sure; the beach was crowded with visitors. There were more good things to eat than we could destroy. The club furnished cream, every one present getting a dish of ice cream. Souvenir badges were also given each member of the club, and also every visitor. Texas certainly had a good representation on that day as everyone that heard of the picnic was there, to have a good time. MRS. C. E. Norwood, Pres. MRS. L. E. Goodwin, Sec. San Diego News. Mrs.R.

The church no doubt will be filled all day to hear this great man. On monday evening Doctor Lucas will give his great lecure on "Winning a handicap, or How a Race Got There." No one should miss this great lecture; you will be thrilled by this wonderful speaker. Notice to the Chairman's Ex- change. representatives of all local clubs to meet at Sojourner Truth home Tuesday June 29, at 2 p. m. On last Sunday all services were well attended. There were quite a few visitors present. Rev. McMickens occupied the pulpit at both services. Sunday morning Rev. McMickens preached an expository sermon from Ephesians, the fourth Chapter. Paul wrote to the Ephesians that they should exhort to unity and that God would therefore, give divers gifts to men, and that his church would be edified and grow up in Christ. To lay aside everything that is displeasing in the sight of God. We were indeed glad to have Miss Harris of Mt. Zion Baptist church, and Mr. Bert McDonald of Wesley chapel with us in the Y. P. S. C. E. on last Sunday. The paper read by Miss Harris on "Christ's Call to the Young Women of Today" was a splendid one. Those who did not hear it missed a are treat. In the evening the pastor's sermon was "A strong Church." It explained how a strong church did not always have a large number of members or a large and spacious building. A dozen men and women who are well posted on the scriptures and doctrine and love. One must be loyal to the truth of God active in service, faithful (first to himself and then to his fellowman) and true to the good name of his church to be strong in the church of God. Paul said we must all be of one mind, the same that was in Christ Jesus. It is impossible for a church to be strong without unity and love. Don't forget the Sunday school picnic to Eagle Rock on Wednesday June the 30th. Car will leave 8th add Central avenue at 9 a.m. Round trip 150c for adults, children 10c.

Sunday June 27, '15.—Pastor Hill is back from the Baptist convention and reports great good accomplished. He will fill his pulpit at both the morning and evening services, assisted by the celebrated Mt. Zion choir. Special obligatos for morning and evening. The Pleasant Hill Baptist church will worship with us, and will baptise in our baptistry. The Baptist state convention held a great session in the North Oakland Baptist church. A full account of the same will appear in another issue of this paper. The Eagle was chosen, above all other papers in the state, to be the convention organ. Dr. Hill speaks of his entertainment most enthusiastically, pronouncing Mr. Mrs. Houston king and queen of the art. Dr. Hill says he puts it mildly when he says, that the "Houston home is among the finest in the state, regardless to race." Dr. F. J. Peck is getting on most flourishingly, his church well attended and he is the idol there as here. Like a loving father, "he asked after his Los Angeles friends." At the A. M. E. Zion church Sunday is the conventional children's day. Sunday morning the pastor will preach a special children's sermon. Subject, "The Ministration of Children," and you will do yourself a favor to hear him. Sunday evening the Sunday school will have its children's day exercise. And under the direction of supt.

Listen, located in the heart of the beautiful residential district of the South Side. A handsome three-story brick building at 3233 Wabash avenue opened up on the 10th of May, (last month.) Mr. C. C. Cox, the district superintendent of the Central, who personally supervised the work, issued orders that neither pains or expense should be spared in the way of making improvements which would add to the safety. and comfort of the men. who daily congregate. The movement is greatly appreciated. There are lounging and reading rooms, smoking and amusement rooms for music, dominoes, checkers and other innocent games in the rear of these parlors. You enter into a well ventilated and day-righted dining room, where meals are served a la carte, fine neatly furnished and carpeted rooms on Main floor; on the second and third floors, consisting of nine rooms, exclusive of the lockers, toilets or bath rooms, are the sleeping quarters, with a capacity for accommodating fifty men. At a later date pool tables will be installed. Safety first. By C. J. BYRNE. The "Safety first" may seem long and slow, but it leads you past dangers—you never may know. So now is the time to look well ahead. "Safety first" cannot help you after you are dead. As all porters must appreciate the relief of the responsibility of carrying around his equipment box, he should arm himself with a fly swatter and protect his passengers from this vigilant little pest.

Graham in 1902. Today it has forty branch offices and is thoroughly established in the entire state of Virginia and the District of Columbia. In twelve years it has paid in death claims $140,125.40, and in sick claims $384,890.50 and is constantly growing in strength and popularity with the public. The company has property valued at $30,000. The secret of their success and any other insurance company is to show some attraction and inducement to insure the applicant as well as the beneficiaries of value received. Many abroad man will not take out a policy that does not have accident and sick benefits. They know that they need assistance while they live and have a family dependent upon them—in case of sickness or disability they need assistance when, when he was unable to work. This would be some inducement to keep up his dues, but without such inducements and consolation he ```markdown ``` has obligated himself to pay up regularly perhaps for years, and what returns does he get? Buried, when he dies, which would surely be attended to by the city if he had no life insurance. What a grewsome impression must be left on the minds of the man and his family to have the solicitor or agent tell the man in the presence of his family that the company will bury him whenever he dies. Would this appeal to you? My experience and observation during my career on the road is the accident and sick benefit is the only popular and most satisfactory to all concerned. By J. D.
