Colored Baptists Holds The Greatest Session In The History of Organization Volume 28 Colored Rev. E. CONVENTION OF COLORED WOMAN'S CLUBS OF CALIFORNIA, HELD AT Meeting of Executive Board. Convention called to order by State President, Mrs. C. H. Dodge, singing "Will there be Any Stars in My Crown." Scripture and prayer by Rev. F. J. Peck. Greetings by Mrs. F. T. Henry, Oakland; response, Mrs. Hattie Saunders of San Diego. 56 delegates answered to roll call; from day to day a large number of visitors were present from all parts of the United States, so swelling the numbers in attendance to many hundreds of people. Everything moved along in a manner that made us feel proud of our women, and made us feel that we were not only catching up but that in a few years we would surpass all other nations. Reports were read from all state officers, showing the work done by them; reports by delegates from all clubs, showing the work done by different clubs in the state. Papers—The need of charity among children, Day Nursery, Los Angeles.

M. Smith, Salome Yates Club, Vallejo. $ ^{*} $ Attention was given to the children's hour, and the little ones did fine. A very substantial dinner was served in the dining hall of the church every day. The menu and service could not be surpassed. The young ladies that served as ushers and pages during the convention are to be complimented on the way they handled their work. The discussions and music were of the best, and in fact everything pertaining to the convention was carried on with such dignity and knowledge of the work that showed our women are deep thinkers, know just what they are doing and that they intend to demand and obtain their rights. A little poem was read by Mrs. G. W. Brown, dedicated to Mrs. Lillian Wall Williams of Oakland, by Mr. N. W. Ricks on the birth of her baby boy. Mrs. Brown also made a plea to young --- Los Angeles, San Francisco and Oakland, Cal., Aug. 22, 1915 married people to stop race suicide and increase our population. The election of officers was handled without demonstration and all were pleased with the result. Many functions were given during the delegates' stay such as sight-seeing automobiles, Exposition parties, receptions, luncheons, breakfasts, theater parties, card parties. This federation was a time never to be forgotten. Officers Elected. President, Mrs. Elizabeth Brown, Oakland; Mrs. J. H. Bates, Vice President, Los Angeles; Secretary, Mrs. Hetty Tillman, Oakland; Mrs. Saunders, Assistant Secretary, San Diego; Mrs. . Wall, Treasurer, Oakland; Organizer, North, Mrs. F. Williams, Oakland; South, Mrs. Davis, Los Angeles; Parliamentarian, Mrs. Hicks, Pasadena; Chapain, Mrs. F. Johnson, Los Angeles. The meeting adjourned without deciding on the next meeting place. OAKLAND SOCIETY NOTES Among the most brilliant functions given at private residences for the entertainment of the members of the federation and out of town visitors was a reception given by Mrs. F. Wall at her palatial residence on Telegraph ave. The house was beautifully decorated with palms and flowers, and Mrs. Walls with her beautifully gowned house guest and assistants made a picture of which Oakland was very proud. Another pretty reception was given by Mrs. Geo. W. Brown, who with her house guest and sister-in-law, Mrs. Ena Edwards of Los Angeles received in her up-to-date cottage on 61st street. Mrs. Brown received in the evening and many gentlemen as well as ladies filled her parlors to overflowing. Music, flowers, dainty refreshments, her cordial reception of all her friends and visiting strangers made you forget everything except the joy of being one of the guests. Mesdames Frasher and Lambs and other ladies gave a reception in San Francisco and others in Oakland. Special to The Eagle Special to The Eagle. Pasadena, August 19th.—Pasadena, the Crown City of the Sierra, has been the Mecca of the California Negro Baptist during the week. The cause of this noted assemblage of religious workers in the Far West was the annual meeting of the Western Baptist Association, the largest and most representative and influential Negro religious organization west of Chicago, that brought to this city many of the most distinguished Baptist leaders in the country, among them such eminent divines as Dr. Charles T. Walker, "The Black Spurgeon," of Augusta, Ga.; Rev. Dr. John E. Ford, of Jacksonville, Fla., America's most noted Negro Bible expositor; Rev. Dr. E. Arlington Wilson, of Muskogee, Oklahoma, the noted Oklahoma pulpit orator, editor of the Oakland Women On The Federation Ministerial Voice; Prof. Lewis the singing Texas Evangelist who electrified the session with song Rev. Dr. J. Gordon McPherson the versatile press correspondent Rev. Dr. C. H. Anderson, the grand old Baptist warrior on the Far Western frontier, who is recognized as the father of Negro Baptists in Southern California; Dr. W. A. Mitchell of San Diego, the recognized leader of the Baptist forces in the Exposition city; Rev. Dr. Joseph T. Hill of Big Zion, the "famed singing parson," Dr. W. H. Tilman, the eloquent Georgia preacher, who is doing a great work in the St. Paul Baptist church, Los Angeles. Among those who addressed the Association were Dr. F. K. White of Riverside, who preached the introductory sermon on the subject of "Strange Winds," whose forceful utterance awakened the messengers to the importance of denominational unity in the spirit of Baptist Get Together Movement. Rev. Dr. J. M. Riddle, the scholarly pastor of the Friendship Baptist, church of Pasadent, delivered the doctrinal sermon on the great theme "Christ, Our Foundation," which was one of the great sermons of the session. Dr. Riddle is a ripe scholar and able theologian. Rev. R. H. Wade of Oxnard, "the parliamentarian of the Association, is one of those big-hearted preachers whose knowledge of rules and order forces the leader to reckon with him, as "Ned," as he is familiarly called, is generally right whenever he raises a point on a speaker. The Rev. G. W. Woodbey of Mt. Zion at San Diego is another of the convention's parliamentarians—a forceful debater. Corresponding Secretary Rev. F. W. Cooper, San Bernardino, former moderator of the Association, is one of the big men of the Baptist forces who wields a great influence among the rank and file of Negro Baptists in Southern California. Among the Layity that are taking a most prominent part in the annual session are such men as the General Treasurer, T. A. Harris, of Los Angeles, who is one of the most substantial laymen in this section. S. B. Tillman, a leading contractor. Among the professional men are attorneys Afue McDowell, Clarence A. Jones, S. P. Johnson, a leader in the Labor and Fraternal circles in Southern California. Pastor W. H. Hughes of the Metropolitan church, that is entertaining the Association, is one of the most energetic workers on the Pacific slope, a man that is bringing things to pass in the Crown City, a man who by his tireless efforts he has built a great church following among all classes of both races. The messengers and visitors are loud in their praise of Dr. Hughes and his people for the hospitable manner in which the Association is being entertained. Among the prominent women that are taking an active part in the work are such notables as Mrs. S. B. Layton, Philadelphia, President of the National Baptist Women's Convention; Mrs. A. Weber, President of the California Women's Baptist Convention, also Mrs. S. B. Strickland, President of the District Woman's Baptist Conventio, Mrs. Sadie Coles, Mrs. Blanch Conway. One of the most important events of the session was the presenting of $170 to the Association by Mrs. C. Hulburt, from the ladies of the Allen Allensworth Literary Society. Rev. Dr. H. B. Thomas, of Santa Barbara, was elected moderator, is one of the rising young men of the denomination, a graduate both of Tuskegee Industrial Institute and Gammon Theological Institute, Atlanta, Ga., Rev. A. Lively, Venice, Vice Moderator; S. P. Johnson, Los Angeles, General Secretary; Rev. F. W. Cooper, Corresponding Secretary; Hon. T. A. Harris, Los Angeles, General Treasurer; members of the Executive Board, Rev. R. H. Wade, Oxnard; Rev. W. H. Rozier, Los Angeles; Deacon J. D. Allen, Los Angeles; Captain Reynolds, Pasadena. One of the most important events in the history of Negro Baptists in Southern California was the announcement of the plans for holding the big Silver Jubilee Anniversary next year that will mark the twenty-fifth anniversary or the organization of the Western Baptist Association in Southern California. Rev. Dr. J. Gordon McPherson, one of the most noted Negro religious publicists, was elected Director Mr. W. M. LOTT Mr. W. M. Lewis General of the Silver Jubilee, and THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE was made the organ for the Silver Jubilee Celebration. Rev. Dr. R. D. Arline, Superintendent of Baptist State Missions, is one of the most conspicuous figures in the Association, whose address on the needs of the mission fields of California, was one of the strongest pleas for missions ever listened to in this section. The Association has set a high goal and will endeavor to raise $10,000 for state missions. As we go to press the Women's District Baptist Convention are in session and much interest is being evinced in the work of the women. We shall give a full account of the Women's Convention in next week's GREAT GOSPEL SERVICES AT 2ND BAPTIST CHURCH, 740 MAPLE AVENUE Dr. E. Arlington Wilson, the successful and widely known pastor Evangelist assisted by Wm. Lewis, the great gospel singer of Texas, conducted the meetings. Large crowds flock to hear these Evangelistic workers.

Second Baptist church and the entire city have felt the religious wave that has swept over this city and many souls have been saved. Sunday is the farewell day. At 11 a. m. baptizing. At 3 p. m., special service for women. At 8 p. m. the farewell sermon. Dr. Wilson is at present pastor of First Baptist church, singer connected with ern White Baptist Board. He thrills his joy and sends con sinner. He is str product. Dr. Wilson by birth and Kansas and adoption. Bo and Kansas and M will have charge of leaving city. This city has been honored this week with the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Alonzo Herendon of Atlanta, Ga. During their stay here they were the guest of Mrs. E. E. Barr of 1351 30th place. Some time around about 1885 there came to Atlanta from Jonesborough, Ga., a small village, this young country lad without capital or friends but with honesty of purpose, a willingness to work and a desire to get ahead. Mr. Herendon had learned the barber trade and found employment on a rear chair in a first-class shop, where all the artists were favorably and well known by the large number of business men that patronized that shop, so it was not often that a regular customer would ever let this youth serve him, however, he had patience and waited. Year after year the old men left and in the course of business changes the youth on the rear chair became the owner of the shop. He was courteous and polite to everyone and soon established a business standing that --- Muskogie, Okla., the largest congregation in the state and one of the wealthiest of the race. He is also one of the recording secretaries of National Baptist Convention, editor and writer and stands high in fraternal societies, among Masons, Odd Fellows and at last National Grand Lodge of U. B. F. & S. M. F. of U. S. A. and the World was elected National Grand Secretary. Mr. Lewis is without a peer in his chosen work as a revivalist singer. He is the only Negro THE NEW YORKER singer connected with the Southern White Baptist Evangelistic Board. He thrills his audiences with joy and sends conviction to the sinner. He is strictly a Texas product. Dr. Wilson is a Texan by birth and Kansan by training and adoption. Both the Texas and Kansas and Missouri clubs will have charge of him before leaving cityi. served him well in the remarkable successes attending his efforts in the years immediately following. It was during the International and Cotton States Exposition in 1895 that his business received a greater patronage than ever before and to his surprise he found himself with an increased bank account. He was modest and entirely unassuming, but his progress soon demonstrated itself without a single word from his lips. He bought almost a block frontage on E. Harris street, and built it up with a number of nice cottages which rented well and the revenue from these, together with his strict attention to business soon put his tax account above $25,000. His commercial life is filled with interesting chapters. Today he is the owner of what is known as the finest barber shop east of the Mississippi river with 25 chairs, and also of two other shops, altogether giving employment to 69 barbers (Continued on page 8) --- Mock conference was held at the A.M.E. church this week, with Dr. Ruby Prince presiding. Bishop Elders, sisters A. B. Bryant, Joe Utley and Harden. Sister Silas Winfield preached the opening sermon, and it was much better than some that we have heard from some of our preachers. We do not know if dancing is a sin But we do know that it is vulgar, and that is sin and any one that joins the Methodist or Baptist church, then dances after becoming a member, sins; because when they joined they promised to live up to the true law of the church and they both are opposed to dancing. It is unlawful for the elders in the Presbyterian church to dance, but there are some churches that permit their members to dance. You can call it a first-class dance if you wish, but it is like a first-class bar room. They all do the same thing. The only difference in these bar rooms is that when you take a drink in the so-called first-class bar you have to pay for the scenery that there is within. When sunday school superintendents and church clerks begin to give dances it is time for the church to make a hall unless they want quantity and not quality in them. Mrs. Lorena-Hunter-Martin was a pleasant visitor in the city saturday. Her address is 1558 W. 34th place, Los Angeles, Cal. Mr. Joseph Utley has been elected president of the Brotherhood at Friendship Baptist church, with Mr. William Solomon as secretary. They are both good men and we look for great things from them this year. Another feather in the Brotherhood's cap, power to stop films given the Los Angeles censors by the court, So The Clansman Birth of a Nation, and the play known as "The Nigger are doomed. So will some one please tell attorney Howard of Pasadena about it, as he said some time ago that he was governed by the Los Angeles courts, Attorney MacBeth said in the Brotherhood meeting at Wesley chapel sunday. August 1, that he prayed that places of vice be closed. The Lord is in heaven, but he answers prayers. Remember what Charles Wesley said: "A charge to keep I have a God to glorify, a never dying soul to save and fit it for the sky." Mrs. S. Wilson's bible class meets every tuesday evening for adults, but the children's class will meet saturday afternoons from 1:30 to 2:30 at her home 217 South Raymend. All children are welcome. At one of these meetings seven little children gave their hearts to God. Well has it been said: Suffer little children to come unto Me. So send your children next saturday afternoon. The Ladies Aid society of Scott chapel met at Mrs. J. T. Tate's, 510 South Raymond avenue, with a large attendance. This society meets every two weeks, but as Prof. H. T. Kealing will speak on the meeting night, they will not meet but all will go to the A. M. E. church on august 26th, next thursday evening, to hear Prof. Kealing. He is not only one of the leaders of the church, but an unselfish worker for the common welfare. He is at present president of the Western university at Quindaro, Kansas, where Dr. W. T. Vernoa was so long. This is your opportunity to hear a great man at your door. J. W. Davis left tuesday for Anaheim and Santa Ana. As he does the city repairing he will re- Miss Elizabeth Moore left monday for Florida, where she will teach this winter.

Don't forget that on tuesday night there will be a grand recital at Scott chapel, given by Mrs. C. C. Lewis. She is the best in the West. She is from Boston, Mass. At the Metropolitan Baptist church the association Tuesday morning, with Dr. H. B. Thomas the moderator in the chair, Dr. J. Gordon McPherson as clerk. This is the 24th annual session of the Western Baptist association and it is one of the largest organizations on the coast. Among the colored visitors were Dr. C. F. Walker of Georgia, Dr. J. E. Ford of Florida, Mrs. S. B. Layton of Philadelphia, the president of the Baptist's Woman's Convention. They have a three-days' program line out, Dr. Riddle, the pastor of Friendship church., preached Tuesday evening to a large congregation. Rev. Hughes the pastor of the church is doing a great work in this city and has one of the neatest churches in his connection. Rev. G. W. Woodby of San Diego is stopping at Mrs. Lewis' on Waverly drive, while Rev. R. H. H. Wade is the guest of Mrs. Harrison on Dayton street. The color line has been drawn in the ocean at Santa Monica by Mayor Dudley. Stops "The Clansman." Oakland, August 9—Performances of "The Clansman," a motion picture adapted from the novel by the same name, depicting race friction in the south after the Civil War, were stopped tonight by the police, who, acting under the orders of the Mayor, arrested the operator of the machine and the manager of the theater in which the film was being shown. Mayer John L. Davin sent a communication to the theater, requesting that portions of the film be excised. These portions he characterized "as immoral, impure, obscene, rude, indecent and tending to corrupt public morals." Mayer Davie declared that his instructions had not been carried out, and police action followed.—From the Scrap Book.

District Attorney MORRIS OPPENHEIMER | Judge Oppenheimer, who has for the past two years presided on the bench of the police court o! San Francisco, has made an en- viable record for dealing out ever handed justice, and the commor people who have ofttimes been denied justice have come intc their own. Morris Oppenheimer For Police Judge. Judge Oppenheimer knows nc class nor creed. He seeks in his high position to deal justly with all, and if he errs to do so on the side of mercy. This being true it accounts for the hearty and almost unanimous support which he is receiving from all classes and it is almost a foregone con- clusion that he will be triumph- antly elected at the primaries on Sept. 28th. THOMAS F. BOYLE FOR AUDITOR. For auditor of San Francisco county Thos. F. Boyle, the pres- ent incumbent, will no doubt be returned for another term, in fact at this time there seems no one with the temerity to run against him, and it is confidently expected that he will be elected at the pri- maries. Mr. Boyle is a genial and well met gentleman, who has safe- guarded the interest of all of the citizens with the greatest profi- ciency, and they will do them- selves credit te continue him as the city and county auditor for another term. THOMAS H. FINN FOR SHERIFF The Colored voters in rallying to the support of Tom Finn for sheriff, are simply standing by a man who has done more for them than any other man in public life in the state of California. There- fore it is indeed good fortune that they at this time have the oppor- tunity to show their appreciation for the efforts which he has made in their behalf. And in the pending campaign it is freely predicted that Mr. Finn will receive the solid Col- ored vote. He has served the people in this capacity and his past record speaks for itself. Aside from this as \Seate Senator he has done much, especially for our people In defeating the segregation measure in the last session of the legislature he was a potent factor, and the recognition, which ha: been given by way of Satronage he has also been the keystone. therefore in supporting Finn fot Sheriff it is a case of standing by the man who has been our consist ent friend.

Peace! Prosperity! Union! LACONICS THE CARNIVAL OF CRIME. The South is having again the reign of the Klu Klux; while the people of the North, and right here in Los Angeles, are seemingly entranced with Thomas Dixon's huge spectacle of wholesole murderers. In the daily Examiner, the day following the slaying of the convicted slayer, Frank, there were nearly four solid pages of print depicting the work of the lynchers. In the same paper there was but barely an inch reserved to tell of an aged Negro charged with the assault of a white woman, filled with shot by a band of chivalric (?) "clansmen" of Georgia. And the day following, Thursday, in the same paper, appears a mere notice of the lynching—a modern name for murder—of three Negro young men who had been charged with poisoning mules and exonerated. This last was in Alabama. All men who have red blood in their veins must deeply regret the mob-murder of Frank, and every well-thinking Georgian of whatever race or color, must also feel keenly the new disgrace put on their state. But this is nothing new to Georgia. She has been permitting her citizens to be mob-murdered for several decades without forcible protest. The Mayor of Atlanta, now in California, predicts that should ex-Governor Slaton return to Georgia within a year, he, too would be mob-murdered. What of it? Georgia has been disgracing itself regularly, as regularly as its good(?) citizens can get their bloody hands on any Negro charged with all manner of crime, untried and unconvicted. The murder of Slaton would add but sauce to the gander. The press informs us that mothers with tender babes in their arms and little children by the hand, viewed with a sort of religious joy, the unclad body of Frank swinging from a tree. What of it? Clunes' Auditorium is thronged each day with all sorts of cultured people applauding the glorification of mob-murder! One admirer of this sort of bloody work, wildly enthusiastic over the new record, comments that in the balmiest days of the ku klux clansmen and "night. riders," nothing equalled the business-like precision of the "orderly" mob of twenty-five who mob-murdered Leo Frank. How the Georgians are progressing! Why not? Mr. Griffith and Thomas Dixon are conducting a day and evening school to teach all who will pay the price, how easy it is to "lynch," how gracefully it can be done, and what wonderful maneuvering it admits of. Go to Clunes, as the writer of these lines has done, and see the admience greet the battle scenes of this picture with a sort of a dulapathy, but wait until the Klu Klux make their appearance, then comes tumultuous applause, a sort of hilarious happiness. For fifty years the Negro has been the target, the inconsequential Negro-practice-puppet; the mob murderer now is out gunning for bigger game—and he is getting it. He has still his "day and evening school" at Clunes' Auditorium and other picture show-houses in this country. And why not have a Jew for a public holiday? Why not have a Governor? By and by the lynchers may turn loose on themselves. Who knows, and why not? And—who cares? WILLIAM EASTON. ```markdown ``` When the eye of insignificant man falls upon the mighty waters breaking and crashing in foamy waves upon the shore, when his mind conceives the greatness of it all as the blue melts away into black and joins with the blue of the sky in the far distance, it would seem as though some of the greatness and broadness of the very atmosphere that surrounds the whole would be impressed upon his mind, soul and being so much that a fear of the power of the Creator of such a body would hold him from any thought of trying to make improvements upon any of His works. The soul, mind and being of the man whose face the Creator has whitened are of material as sensitive to anything greater than himself as those of a stone would be. The Creator seeing him pushed, crowded and jammed into a space, where there were already too many of his kind has allowed him to come, along with others, to a place where he would have more room and a better chance for life. This place men call America. The chances for life are so great for him, having been so meager before, that they have turned him crazy. He looked into a mirror, saw his face was white, while those of the others were yellow, brown and black. Of course, God's favorite color is white, that he knew, for He had made him white. Having been successful in getting enough of his kind together he started in to do the will of his Creator, namely, to put all the others under his power. Having used all his means to do this, he is not yet satisfied. He is finding fault with the way in which God has made things. Why didn't He make reservations in His creation for him. With this in mind he is thinking that he will make improvements upon the works of the Creator. The waters of the beaches should be divided. Therefore at Santa Monica, the chosen of the earth will henceforth have a black rope for the black faced to grab if he fears drowning, and a white one for the white faced to hold. This is to say, all ye that are black and cursed of the Lord, stay to yourselves when you want to go into the waters prepared for the chosen white man and their children. ECHO FROM SANTA FE, N MEXICO. Los Angeles Boys Make Good in New Mexico. D. W. and L. U. Anderson, both sons of Rev. C. H. Anderson of this city are making good as energetic business men at Santa Fe. They are owners and controllers of one of the biggest and best fitted up all around tailoring establishments in that ancient Mexican city. Santa Fe is older than Jamestown, Va. The Anderson boys went there some years ago, and almost immediately won the respect and consideration of the populace of the city because of activity in college athletics. Now they are not only successful business men, cherishing the respect and esteem of all the people, but Mr. Dan Anderson has the distinction of being the only baseball coach of color in the Southwest, since he is coach at St. Michael's College, where he is honored in that position. Perhaps the most interesting feature of the Anderson boy's success is the fact that they have not forgotten the parents of their childhood in Los Angeles, for constantly do they write to "Dad" keeping him in constant touch with their activities in that section and his in this. in the history of American jurisprudence is evident to the close student of American history. Perhaps no judge upon the Superior Bench of Los Angeles county is more evenly balanced than Judge Shenk. Some men become known for their legal knowledge and ability along a certain line, but in the case of Judge Shenk his well trained mind has placed him well in forefront in the rank of his profession. Judge Shenk, all through his public career has stood firmly by the letter of the law, without fear or favoritism. His decisions stand well the test of appeals and he is regarded generally as one of the most thoroughly trained judges on the Superior bench. JUDGE GAVIN W. CRAIG. In meditating upon the condition of our country, the mind naturally reverts to the men of public life whi make and execute the laws. Few men of this generation are as thoroughly imbued with the subject of law, as Gavin W. Craig. Judge Craig, though young in years, is a veteran in his chosen profession. His ripe university training, aided by a term of years as instructor in a school of law amply equips him for the high responsibilities of Superior Judge. Not only has Judge Craig achieved distinction as instructor but as an author, as well, having written several treatises upon the most mooted points of law, and so thoroughly has he elucidated his subjects that he has become an authority upon those subjects. His well earned brilliant career presages for him a bright and lasting future. JUDGE WARREN WILLIAMS One of the very strongest characters in the public life in this vicinity is Judge Warren Williams. Judge Williams served as police judge in Los Angeles for several years, and is now filling the office of city prosecutor. No man in the ranks of Republicanism, under normal conditions, stands a better chance of election to any position to which he may aspire. Judge Williams is a Republican of the proper type; the kind which is so badly needed in the section at this particular time. His record upon the bench is such that he can again face the people, if he so desires, and receive the support of all who admire a fearless, clean cut advocate of justice and equality before the law. Judge Williams does not appreciate men because of their color or class but for their integrity, their character. The Colored citizens are especially loud in their praises of the man for whom they are willing to cast their votes for any position to which he may aspire. JUDGE THOMAS P. WHITE. JUDGE THOMAS P. WHITE. The more closely we study the problems of the city, state or nation, the grmer becomes the conviction that despite the edicts of legislative assemblies, our present day need in all walks of life is that of MEN. Not particularly men whose names might be graced by a list of University titles, but men of heart and soul and that spiritual unfoldment that their every public action be marked by a touch of divine light. That Judge Thomas P. White is measuring up to the requirements of the day is the opinion of those who are best qualified to determine. Judge White might truly be styled the man of the hour in that department of justice over which he presides, whether neglectful parent or wayward child, Judge White dispenses justice with that humane admonition which gives the offender hope and fills him with inspiration. Every official action of this great jurist reflects the teachings of the Nazarene. Few, if any, are they who have left Judge White's court feeling that the knell of lost opportunity has been tolled. The dignity and honor with which Judge White is filling his present position is but preparing The Board of County Supervisors might be termed the auditing committee of the county; the principal duty of this board being to superintend the county's finances. The public has learned to look upon the Supervisors, however, as the one class of public officials with whom everybody must find fault. It matters not what the circumstances are there must be a kick and the Supervisors must be "cussed out." We have learned to look upon the present board, however, as real human beings, with the public welfare at heart. It matters not what the habitual fault-finder may say in the negative we are thoroughly convinced that the present board of Supervisors of Los Angeles county is about as honorable set of gentlemen as can be found in any county in America. It has become the custom in America, to misjudge the motives of all public officials and especially is this true in Los Angeles county. But our supervisors have more than stood this unjust, critical test. They each and everyone of them have demonstrated to the satisfaction of every fair-minded citizen that the public welfare is their pleasure. It might be well to suggest right here that in fighting the battles of the race, it might be well to change our tactics: instead of complaining overmuch about the things that we are not permitted to enjoy let us show a spirit of gratitude for those that we have. Let us compliment our Supervisors for the noble manner in which they have stood by the race in the employment of the large number of race men in and about the county court house and Hall of Records. You know and I know, in fact, we are all fully cognizant of the fact that there are few counties of this size in the United States giving employment to as many men of color. Supervisor Pridham has always stood by the Colored citizen in every reasonable request. Supervisor Norton has proven himself to be a fair-minded, unbiased official, when considering the claims of his Colored constituency. Supervisor Hinshaw has at every opportunity acquiesced to every reasonable request we have made, while Supervisors Hamilton and Woodley have always been known as men of the square deal for all. "Some men are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them." These lines were brought to the surface of our mentality when we read this letter which reads: Mr. C. E. Orr, .R. F. D. No. 1, Bowles, Fresno Co., Calif. Dear Sir: I have the honor to advise you that the Governor has appointed you a delegate to the National Negro Farmers Congress to be held in San Francisco on August 26, 27, 28 and 29, this year. Your certificate of appointment is enclosed herewith. Very truly yours, MARTIN C. MADSEN. Executive Secretary. We are proud to offer Mr. Orr as an example of the race, who has achieved greatness. Less than twenty years ago Mr. Orr went into the fertile San Joaquin valley, when land was cheap, and purchased fifty acres and immediately began the cultivation of the soil. Today he owns a ranch of two hundred acres, used mainly for the cultivation of peaches and grapes. Less than a year ago he added a well appointed dairy to his ranch, which is a successful addition. He has his own water apparatus which is a wonderful piece of machinery, drawing water from the depth of the earth and belches it either up hill or down hill as the case may demand. We are glad that Gov. Johnson was wise in his selection and we hope that Mr. Orr representation at the Negro Farmers Congress will mean a revival of the slogan, "Back to the Farm" for California.

The scenic trip to Tia Juana (known as Aunt Jane) via the new short line is delightful, free from dust, and takes passengers within five minutes' walk of the typical fair; board walk from the new railroad terminal. Round trip 50 cents. Mr. M. T. Laws, our new correspondent reporter, made a flying trip to Tia Juana, old Mexico, on August 13th, 1915, via the new route of the San Diego and South Eas.ern Railway company, leaving at 9:25 a. m., with approximately 300 persons on board the train. It seems to be a daily occurrence for so many to leave on this train as it gives them ample time to see and view all the sights. Arriving at National City after having seen the beautiful china works, the marvel of its kind in California, we connect with the steam train of modern improvements, in charge of F. R. Kellogg as conductor; J. H. Richley, L. E. Russell, brakemen; Guy Roberts, engineer; C. Chandoni, fireman. From the appearance of Mr. Kellogg's arm he has spent many years in such a capacity. The courtesy which the patrons receive makes it a pleasure to every one on board. I am at a loss to find words to describe this trip. In far and distant view across the Pacific ocean you see Coronado Islands: near inland you can see Point Loma, old Spanish light house, the U. S. wire ess station, Theosophical institute, the Bennington monument overlooking Fort Rosecrans, the most beautiful view of San Diego bay and ocean. High and above the sea near in you observe the bird man of North Island Government aviation school, you can see the aviators as they swiver and splash in the water; Coronado hotel and tent city are in plain view to the naked eye, connected with the main land by the silver strand. This alone is a treat long to be remembered. Passing the Great Western salt beds, one of the largest and most refined in the country, where you observe the salt in its natural form. From here the train traverses in and for a few miles. the passengers have not time to change their seats, speak or ask questions of each other, as their eyes are taxed to their capacity in viewing great sights passing through Palm City; San Ysidro—the home of the little Landers colony—and you are then in full view of Tia Juana. Arriving at the boundary line that divides the United States and Mexico, where the new custom house is located on the United States side, you would be surprised to find a large confectionery of the highest efficiency adjoining a full fledged grocery store with all the modern conveniences. As you are crossing the line you are instructed through a large megaphone the amount of merchandise you may bring out of Mexico: Merchandise to the amount one dollar free of duty, cigars to the amount of 25 cents free of duty. You are now looking upon the great Monte Carlo of Mexico, where you can view some of the wondrous sights hidden from the American colonists. Plaza del Toro, where we viewed the large lion in captivity to fight the wild bull sunday, august 29th, where many participate in the Spanish dinners at 15c, and writing cards as souvenirs to their friends at home. The new custom house is in charge of Mr. W. B. Evans; Mr Shrave inspector, Miss Mabel Seeley, inspectress of customs. All law-abiding citizens are greeted heartily at this point on their return. The return trip by way of Otay and the Lemon Belt will no be the Otay hill to the right your remembrance reflects to the great Desert of Sahara. Passing through Chula Vista (meaning pretty view) you see some of the prettiest orange and lemon groves in California; rounding the hill of pretty views, looking low in the Sweet Water valley, at a distance you can observe the Sweet Water dam and its wonders in stone masonry. There seems to be no chief agricultural preference in this valley, as all the produce is raised here to satisfy the appetite of the hend of the Wall street money makers. We again arrive at National city, only four miles to San Diego, our destination, where your mind is wondering and your tongue is speechless of words of the wonders which your eyes have seen. Notes and Personals. The African Methodist Episcopal people are arranging to give a rousing reception to Bishop Parks of Chicago. Among the arrivals we notice the names of Mrs. B. K. Bruce and Prof. Cook and wife, of the Howard university. Also the name of Miss Johnson, the popular normal school teacher from Washington, D. C., who has been visiting the exposition. --- And of the familiar faces we notice the Rev. McMickens, who delighted in speaking Spanish to all Mexicans and sometimes to Englishmen. He hails from Los Angeles but has been visiting the exposition. Mr. N. H. Gordon, secretary of the Pacific Coast amusement club, arrived from Los Angeles with the president, Mr. M. T. Laws. They made a hasty appointment over the phone with Mr. Wells of the Panama Pacific exposition in charge of the new events. Their passes were phoned to the main gate and they were received at his office at the California building, where they received a hearty hand shake and were introduced to Mr. Norton and the gentlemen took their proposition under advisement. It will be decided Thursday at the board of directors of the exposition. Miss Cora White is expected home this week. She has been spending a few weeks in San Francisco at the exposition; Mrs. Henry Harris has returned from San Francisco where she was a delegate to the Women's federation. She was delighted with the exposition whilst there. Mrs. Cavel is improving from her broken leg. Mrs. Jack Oliver and her sister, Miss Esther Shannon, were party guests at the Savoy theater last Thursday night, given by Mr. A. L. Ramsey. Miss Kate Badgers, after spending several days in National city refreshing her memory in playwriting, has returned to her home.

Her efficiency shows that women are capable of handling business, as she was in charge of a crew of five men and her accounts were accurate. She was also given a day of recreation which she is enjoying in Tia Juana. Mr. M. T. Laws custodian of the Plaza comfort station, spent several days with his family. The wife is much improved after the visit of the stork Mr. Laws is head of the California Eagle, as business manage visited the head office whilst in the latterity and found the office running in full bloom. He also visited the New Age office, where he was greeted by the editorial staff. As he believes where there is unity there is strength, Mr. Laws was for nine years head porter of the Santa Fe and organizer of the Santa Fe Red Caps' social club and he held every offise to that of president. He did not only give social affairs but taught his men efficiency: As Napoleon said there is no man too great or too low for me too great, or the nights too dark; or the weather too stormy, to act if his duty called. The Recital. The recital given tuesday night at Castle hall was, emphatically, in a class by itself, as a feature of its kind had never been presented in San Diego before. We are sure that all those present enjoyed seeing and hearing the wonderful talents displayed by those who participated, and those not attending missed a treat long to be remembered, Mrs. C.C. Lewis assisted by Mrs. A.C. Harris Edwards in comic, pathetic and dramatic readings, posing under colored lights, would bring applause from the most demoniac throne. After the performance the party was spirited away over the city in a big touring car by the editorial staff of the California Eagle of San Diego, where they viewed the exposition, its illuminations and the beautiful city. Whilst some of the party left on the early train, Mrs. Lewis and daughter, and others, remained to see more of the Sun Harbor city, after which they left for Pasadena to start on their 10,000 mile circuit. San Diego as a whole wishes them a phenomenal success. Be not ungrateful for past services ungrateful young man who is trying to climb from the bottom of the well by the rope that you hold in your hand; if the rope does not break you without a doubt will make it safe. But have you stopped to think about the number of people standing at the top of the well with a knife in hand just waiting to cut the rope, while there are just a few who can and are willing to assist you now. When they have rescued you would it be gratitude for you to tilt them head foremost in the pit. If so its better that such men had spent their lives in the bottom of the pit.

Happiness Requires, among other things, a General Good Health. Good health requires periods of rest and recreation. 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 baths; a playground for children in 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—convenience which bathers appreciate: that the tennis court is at the service of the public at all times; that a supper at LA BONITA CAFE will give the finishing touch to an evening automobile ride; that it is the one aim of the management of La Bonita to take care of the comfort and comfort of patrons; and that if you take the Venice Short Line car, you get off at Pico Boulevard (formerly Fremont Avenue) walk one block east and one half block north.

It will be done among those of our race when we grasp the motive of scout life for boys. Scouts: the method is summed up in the term scoutcraft, and a combination observation, deduction and hardiness, or the ability to do things. It includes instruction in first aid to the injured; nature studies and many useful and helpful subjects. This is all accomplished in drill and play, at will or pleasure. One of the principles is the out-of-door life for the boy. What we are trying to do for your boys will be made clear to you. For information regarding same see scout master, Dr. Wm.

On Monday morning, August 9, 1915, an auto party consisting of nine members in two machines (all Colored) adorned in attire suitable for the occasion, started to the great and beautiful exposition. Which exposition? The one at San Diego, one of the oldest Mexican cities in California. At early dawn; just when the moon and stars were beginning to take their rest, and the sun anxiously waiting to come on duty, Mr. and Mrs. Sterling Lees, who were in charge of the party, went to the residence of Mr. G. P. Peyton on West 20th street and there took in Mr. and Mrs. Peyton and Mrs. Middleton, also Mr. Hawkins, who lives near by, with his machine. Before it was yet day they toured on towards Central avenue and picked up Mrs. Fields of the Erskine apartments, wife of the noted musician, Mr. William Fields. From there they went to the residence of Mr. Roland Turnage on East 9th street, and took in Rev. D. L. McMickens, pastor of East 8th street Christian church and Miss Susie Lynch, also a member of the same persuasion. All the party having been collected, they immediately started on their way not intending to reach San Diego till the day following, for an outing and camping at night was as much desired as the fair. So the farthest route was chosen, the one which leads through Pomona and Riverside; and other small cities. In Riverside they saw the beautiful Indian village with its magnificent years, thousands of people go every Easter morn to partake of the solemn religious services held there just at sunrise. Not being in a very great hurry, they left their machines in a garage in Riverside and went out to see a little of the city; after which refreshed themselves with ices and sodas. Again they started on their way, every one in "the pink of condition," and all was going fine when, in the middle of the afternoon all of a sudden, there was a click, a pause, and the machine was "as dead," says Sam Jones, "as a door nail." Would you like to know just where they were then? I hate to tell it, but if I must, I must. Right out in the desert where the sun seemed to shine from all sides, top, and bottom. Hot? Why it could not be hotter in—Africa! We have been told that California is the land that God has smiled upon, but, in that section, this auto party thought by the way they were perspiring that He was surely weeping bitterly. Hotter and hotter it grew, when at length Miss Lynch tried to be comforted by crawling under the machine, the only spot of shade visible anywhere. At the close of an hour, the chauffeur was ready to start again with a car full of grateful hearts, each laughing over his experience and all agreeing that without those little drawbacks, the pleasure to follow would not seem so great. The next place to follow the desert was Anaheim, but they only tarried there long enough to be refreshed after their long and tiresome wait a short time before, and no other stop was made till 6:30 p. m., when about fifty miles from San Diego, they set camp for the night. After eating heartily of the abundance of delicious and substantial food prepared by the women of the party and drinking of the pure water from the fountain nearby. They laughed and played, told stories, and sang sad, sentimental and love songs and even a few hymns were added. So touching were all of them that had one of a sentimental nature been present, cupid surely would have caught him, or a sinner, a true and lasting conversion. So enthusiastic was this crowd that sleep, a friend and soothing balm to the weary and heavy laden, was a thing of the past. Not a one could relate his dreams. Not a one had slept. Yet, notwithstanding this broken rest, they deserted their camping place at the early hour of 4 o'clock Tuesday morning, tired and exhausted, but all too proud to acknowledge it. At 7 a.m. of the same day, they reached San Diego, tidied themselves and started to the Exposition grounds. Though not as large as many expositions, the one at San Diego is located on a high cliff just a short distance from the city. All of its buildings are very white and stand out in bold relief. All are close together and very accessible to reach and for those who prefer riding, the provision of auto chairs called the Osborne Electriquette, has been made and one can ride all over the grounds with comfort. After entering the grounds the party viewed the main buildings and there saw sights too numerous to mention, such as fine oriental rugs, pictures of fine art, the making of different ribbons, various hides brought from the heart of Africa by Mr. Roosevelt and many statues so perfectly made till they were deceiving. The Home Economy and the Foreign and Domestic Arts buildings contained many unique displays from the Orient. The California state building was a wonder and it required several flights before the summit of the tower was reached. The Metropolitan building, too was interesting, it showing many skulls of most every nationality. The Japanese tea garden was very pretty and unique and it was there that the party took their lunch. On the Isthmus they strolled through the Painted Desert of the Santa Fe, it displaying the most impressive of real southwestern Indian life that one would care to see. * There were some of the real Pueblo Indians with their squaws, children and tiny babies, living as in their native homes; and their art of weaving was interesting as well as educational. A little ways from the Painted Desert, still on the Isthmus, was the Panama canal in miniature, showing the only actual working model of the greatest waterway in history. There was a typical street in old Panama, showing "The 12th Street Store" A. T. PELTON, Mgr.

And while the trains were passing from "New York to Los Angeles" and ships passed through the model of the canal, a lecturer explained the points of vital interest along the way and some of the difficulties with which the engineers had to cope and overcame. But the lighting fixtures and the wireless telegraphy was most too perfect to be real. But that which was enjoyed as much as anything else was the appearance of day and night and the storm upon the connected oceans. There were threatening clouds, lightning and thunder as heavy and loud as you hear in the East, and after that heavy rain just as real and natural as could be. And the restful calm and peacefulness after the raging storm with the beautiful sunset and the appearance of the bright, moon and stars at eventide was a wonder. One of the party stated "Someone has surely re-created heaven and earth." Right across the street from this wonderland was a concession entitled "The War of the Worlds."
