JONES, Vice-President of the Kansas-Missouri Club The above was the program and GREAT was the reception tendered the president, S. P. Johnson, and secretary, Mrs. L. Slayton, on last Tuesday evening, these two officers having filled their respective offices since the organization of the great Kansas Missouri Club. This organization in keeping with its reputation of Doing Things left nothing undone on this occasion to make this reception one of its stellar efforts. Each number on the program was of high order, Mr. Joseph Anderson especially distinguishing himself both as a vocalist and as a performer on the piano. Miss Gould, the well known prima donna, also was a feature. Mrs. L. Motley on behalf of the members delivered a timely address of welcome to the secretary, who feelingly responded. Prof. C. A. Biggers' address to the President was an oratorical gem which was responded to in a touching and eloquent manner by President Johnson. The editor of the Eagle, J. B. Bass, strong booster of the club, closed the program with a few remarks along the lines of progress and appreciation which ```markdown ``` The California Eagle Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland, Cal., Oct. 23, 1915 was well received at the conclusion of the same. The members and friends proceeded to partake of the good things which had been prepared by the ladies under the directio nof the committee and the host, Mrs. L. Motley. J. W. Jones, vice-president of the club, was the master of ceremonies and performed that function with rare grace and dignity.

Thursday's Examiner had an exhaustive editorial on the yellow peril, in which they put all of the dark races with the Japanese in what they styled as the inevitable world's war for supremacy. The colored business women at their grand reception on Thursday evening demonstrated the possibilities of organization along the lines of business. RECEPTION TO REV. J. L CRAW OF THE FIRST A. M.E.

JOHNSON. President of Kansas-Missour Club FIRST INDEPENDENT CHURCH The service Sunday beginning with Sunday school and continuing throughout the day, were an inspiration. The two great sermons delivered by Rev. Greggs, were blessings to the souls of men and women. Thirty members, including one convert, were added to the membership.

Each member is asked to contribute $5.00 to this "nest egg effort" that all the incidental indebtness of the church may be wiped out before Jan. 1st, 1916. $435.00 was subscribed in pledges at this meeting with $125.00 in cash being placed on the table while the secretaries enrolled names of those who rallied to this worthy cause.

THE PEOPLES FORUM Number 37 IT ntest inter Big Contest For Full Particulars THE BUSINESS WOMEN'S LEAGUE CELEBRATE SECOND ANNIVERSARY AT Last Thursday evening a large concourse of people in a well appointed banquet joined with the Business Women's League in the celebration of their second anniversary. The home was simply but prettily decorated in white and green while the refreshments represented the club colors. The program consisted of short addresses, solos and remarks by some of the leading citizens, who heartily commended the women who form the Business League for their excellent efforts in the commercial world. It was predicted by some that these women will soon launch a proposition that will be an eye opener for less aggressive members of the Raee. The officers of the League are Mrs. M. L. Motley, president; Mrs. G. R. Baldwin, vice-president; Mrs. Annie Williams, secretary; Mrs. G. P. Peyton, treasurer, who deserve no little credit for their efforts to rise in the commercial world. THE TOWER OF FRIENDS The Eastern Jubilee Quartet will make their initiative appearance at Blanchard hall, Monday venig, November 8, 1915, for the benefit of the First Independent church.

So buy your ticket, be on time, as seeing is believing and what your eyes and ears witness, your heart is compelled to testify. So be present on this occasion, and witness the greatest attraction of the season. He Is Still Plunging But the Kaiser went up against two strong forts. On this occasion all women's husbands should think, but some of them do not, for they say that there is a school in Ohio for people that do not think. We believe that they could find some students for that institution in this city, for some of them do not think here. It is said that a hog will eat acorns all day under a tree and never stop to think or look to see where they come from, and the same holds good with some people, for that infamous resolution that was proposed a few nights ago at a meeting of the taxpayers' and voters' association was presented with thinking. It was one of the most dangerous pieces of legislation that has been proposed in this cify to a struggling race as we are, since the first Mexican rolled a cigarette on the banks of the Arroyo Seco, or followed the trail to San Gabriel. It was nothing less than color line, seasoned with segregation, and that is what we don't want. Let us think before we act. Suppose the other fellow says he doesn't want you. The poor will be present until Gabriel blows, let him black or white. But Dr. J. M. Riddle, one of the greatest thinkers of the age, saw danger in the resolution, so he put a submarine under it and blew it out of the association. Some of the members wanted it to have a decent burial, by voting it down, but Rev. Dyatt, a follower of John Wesley, perhaps saw farther than any of the rest and he wanted it cremated by not allowing it to come to a vote. He must have thought of what Daniel Webster said: "We must legislate for the ignorant." So President Gains yielded to the wish of the thinkers and ruled it out. Then the great Kaiser pulled himself together like a bundle of gun cotton and left the two forts and went to the trenches and left the Dreadnaught ass. It is not the stature of a man that counts but it is his brains. Work for the tax payers' and voters' association; help the police to close up the gambling dens and drinking places in our city, and the pool rooms where leafers stand all day, and where they have women visitors. There are now two colored women in jail in this city, serving a sentence in there. One of them was a barber in a pool room for a time. If a working man has to play a game of poo after a day's work he has to go where these thugs gamble and are about. The first tring they say is what they did back East; they have been everywhere and they know everything and begin to tell you about Chicago's State street: Sometimes they block the sidewalk so a lady can't go by them. Other races look upon them as representatives of our race. We can't have a first-class restaurant as long as we permit them to sell beer. You say other races do it. That is true; but we should not want to patronize the bad things that other races do, but the good things that they do. Let us clean our own house by assisting the police in driving from the city that class of people. Then the tax payers' association will not have to fight to go where they are not wanted, but will be invited to come. Water seeks its level; let us not talk about Greece and Rome, but do things at home. So let us appoint a night to meet at Friendship Baptist Church for the Vernon improvement association and forget fighting, for a lean engagement is better than a fat law suit. To have friends you must be one. remember that the lady Mrs. E. Brook, who gave the Brook Side edge to the city, gave the day ear to the colored people. Mrs. William Jefferson is ill at her home, 61 Alvarado Drive. She spent the Summer in the East at her former home. Just as soon as she returned she was taken sick. Attorney W. O. Tyler will speak Sunday evening at the First A. M. E. Church, under the auspices of the brotherhood of the church. Rev. Dyatt preached last Sunday and took as his text, "What profit will it be for a man to gain the whole world$^a$ and lose his own soul?" Rev. J. A. Fleming was in the city Monday. He is greatly missed from the church as he was one of the leaders of the societies in the church. F. M. Prince registered at the Richmond while in San Diego. Chauffeurs take warning. Do not drive too fast in Los Angeles; if you do they will get you. One of the Pasadena boys broke the speed limit and he had to pay $25 last Saturday, and one of the Judges was fined $50 Friday. Judge Murphy of the sunrise police court was found guilty of speeding and he paid $50 for it. Now when you go over in your auto don't break the law. If they fine the Judge they won't lose you. A man that is always advocating fighting without anything to fight with, and will burn a barn to get the rats out of it, is not a safe man to follow. Rev. W. H. M. Dickerson has gone to Massachusetts to visit his mother. He is now in New York and is expected back soon. Mrs. S. B. Stricklin who was sent to Chicago as a delegate to the National Baptist convention, is expected back soon. She is now visiting Rev. R. W. Johnson at Tucson, Arizona. Dr. Ralph Skilling is dead. Capt C. D. Manning has also passed away. Both were friends to our race. Supreme Chancellor W. Ashbee Hawkins of Baltimore, Md., was the guest of Mr. J. J. Bunch, the District Deputy. Mr. Hawkins is the Supreme Chancellor of the Eastern and Western hemisphere. Mr. Bunch motored to Alhambra, San Gabriel, Oak Knoll. Busch's garden and the Ostrich Farm and many other points of interest around the city. The party consists of Supreme Chancellor Hawkins of Baltimore, Mrs. Nana Loving Deputy Supreme Council of Los Angeles. Mrs. V. Fingers of Los Angeles Mrs. Blanch Bunch Hall, and Mr. J. J. Bunch, District Deputy. Then they went to the home of Mrs. J. H. Harper, No 813 S. Grand avenue, where a 5 o'clock dinner was served, to which they did their full duty and then left for Los Angeles. Don't forget the rally Sunday at the A. M. E. Church. Every member is to give one dollar and tell how he earned it. They made a cake last week and they realised a dollar and eighty cents, so they are eight cents to the good. The choir is preparing for a sacred concert at the Metropolitan church. Mr. E. W. Small is confined to his room; he has the rheumatism. Another scrap at the pool room. The woman got a black eye and the man is out on $25 bail. Two women went on his bail. There is work for the tax payers' association to do. We believe that the constitution could be so amended so some of the officers can vote as well as talk—just say they pay tax—that will help some. Rev. J. Gordon McPherson will lecture in Pasadena. His subject will be, "The Charge on San Juan Hill." Watch this paper for the date. Peter Ballard is soon to become a benedict. Eugene Carr after spending four months in the northern part of the State came home for a few days. He has left for the north again. Communicated TO THE EDITOR OF THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE-: I have been kept very busy during the past few weeks in an effort to complete the book that I have been writing on the history of the race in California. Hence have not found time until now to send you a letter on the exhibits of the race at the P.-P. I, E. Owing to the two different fairs held during the Summer by race people in Richmond, Va., and also Chicago, Ill. The race has not the grand display of exhibits it had at the fair held in Jamestown, Va., but the few exhibits we have I think, as a race, will do us more good. They are exhibited in a way that the general public have viewed and passed their opinions on the same as any other American citizen of the United States. Take, for instance, the two water-color paintings, the work of colored students from the high school of Boise, Idaho, or the two charcoal sketches from the two young ladies, students of Sumner high school, St. Louis, Mo. Cut the greatest and most encouraging exhibits, the work of race people, I have found in the Mississippi State building at P.-P. I. E. It was such a surprise, for when I asked the custodian of exhibits for colored citizens of the State of Mississippi, I expected to be shown some of the farm products. But instead, he replied: "The only exhibits the colored people have from Mississippi is the one from the Toggaloo university, a State school for colored people. This exhibit is located on the second floor of this building." I immediately went in search of the same and found the exhibit filled an entire room. It consisted of architectural drawings for a six room residence, library table, dining room chairs, book case and hardware to be used in the building of residence and also to use on farm and in blacksmith shop. In the needle work exhibit there was every thing beautifully done, from the making of a kitchen dress to a reception gown; fine embroidered lingerie, center piece of drawn work and other dainty work. The exhibit would do credit to any school. As I looked upon this exhibit, and then remembered that the home of Jefferson Davis was somewhere in the State of Mississippi, and to think that this State should send a very creditable exhibit from a colored school to the World's Fair at San Francisco California, honoring that exhibit in its State building, notwithstanding no other State in the Union has shown the Negro such courtesy, I am beginning to think that no day is so long but that it has an ending and the Negro's day of persecution is almost over, for with the Clausman forever barred from the State of Ohio, and the G. A. R throughout the United States taking an active interest in an effort to have it suppressed every where I feel that we all may feel hopeful for better days. Will tell of other exhibits in my next latter. Mrs. Alex Anderson and Mrs. Susie Moore spent last Sunday in Maders, reporting a grand time. Mrs.. W. Blackney and family returned from a visit to the Exposition. They also visited relatives while away. Miss Ella Rousseau left this morning for Oakland and San Francisco. She will remain up north for at least ten days, leaving there for Salisbury, N. C., her former home. The musical concert held at the A. M. E. Zion church was a great success. The choir made itself a record and has an invitation to sing at one of the leading white churches. Leaving Hanford this morning via Santa Fe for the annual conference at Oakland were Rev. and Mrs. Holmes, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Moulden, Mrs. Mollie Lane, Mrs. Anna Knox, Miss Blanche Kinnard, Mrs. Laura Tate, Mrs. Bertha Fields and Miss Ella Rousseau. They will take in the Exposition while away. The Y. P. C. held a big masquerade banquet at the home of Mrs. Anna Fields. They had an enjoyable time and many had on some quaint costumes. There were plenty of good things to eat. Beverly Fields. church delegate for Hanford, leaves tomorrow for the annual conference at Oakland- If He Paid in Advance. [With apologies to that pastoral class 'The Old Oaken Bucket.'] How dear to my heart Is the steady subscriber, Who pays in advance At the birth of each year; Who lays down the money And dees it quite gladly, And casts 'round the office A halo of cheer. He never says "Stop it; I cannot afford it— I'm getting more papers Now than I can read." But always says; 'send it; Our people all like it— In fact, we all think: The Eagle is a need.' How welcome his check When it reaches our sanctum, How it makes our pulse throb, How it makes our heart dance; We outwardly thank him, We inwardly bless him— The steady subscriber Who pays in advance. Dr. McPherron delivers a timely address Tuesday morning before the Colored Ministers Federation on the interesting subject of the "Elements of successful church advertisement. The attendance was unusually large and much interest was evinced in the address as Dr. McPherson is among the most fluent platform speakers, he has planned to give a series of these talks before the various religious, fraternal and business organizations on the elements of successful advertising, in boosting negro business concerns both small and large.

ITEMS AND HAPPENINGS For our people as a whole and there is no time like the present to unite and no better association to unite with than the N. A. A. P. C. and so, friends and comrades let us make this not simply a contest but a grand opportunity to identify ourselves with a body of united people that are trying to do something to raise the race above this unjust persecution and give them equal rights and privileges and to secure better positions for our race than they no wenjoy and I think it is every colored man's and woman's duty to become a member of this association if they truly love their race and have their welfare at heart. The northern branch received fourteen new members for which they are very thankful and trusting that you will rally around our banner and make this the greatest contest of all. F.E. L. OAKLAND ITEMS The Marium Social Club dancing school is the best weekly entertainment at present in this city and is always well attended as the boys try to always give the best possible and the music given by the Orpheum orchestra gives great satisfaction and the people always go home very much pleased.

NORTHERN BRANCH HAP: PENINGS The National Association for the advancement of colored people held its regular meeting on the evening of Monday, Oct. 14, 1915, at Cooper Zion church in Oakland. Agreat many things of interest to the race were read and taken up in their proper order. The association announced receiving from National Headquarters in N. Y. instructions relating to a membership contest. They requested that all local branches enter the same as they realize that the greater our number the greater our united strength, they will award prizes, it is to be hoped that those in the association will make an extra effort to secure as many new members as they possibly can. It is warranted it by its brilliant victories in their uphill fight since its inception into the realms of active affairs. For instance the successful fight on the grandfather clause. The segregation case in Washington, D. C. and Baltimore. And having placed upon the budget the Howard University appropriation. After it had been removed in the House by the activity of Ben Tillman of South Carolina. NON- PARTISAN IS NOT NEW IN THIS STATE.

Peace! Prosperity! Vote "Yes" on Constitutional Amendment No.2. The people on the 26th will be called on to vote to lengthen the term on the Bench of Superior Judges to 12 years, which is entitled, Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 2, on the ballot. The aforesaid purpose of this amendment is to raise the moral tone of the Bench, to have a judgeship, not a mark of political favor, but a position of trust and greater efficiency. The people should have removed from the Bench all contingency of forced electioneering. The Judges of the Federal Courts are appointed, and remain on the Bench so long as their good behavior warrants it. They have absolutely no electioneering to do, and consequently they are always "on the job." Already the law has made our judiciary non-parisian, and it now rests with the people to further safeguard it, by removing all temptation to do "political favors," inasmuch as 12 years will give them an opportunity to evince the very highest order of judicial fitness for their position, and the people will thereby be better served. Vote Yes for Constitutional Amendment No. 2, and eliminate the buttonholing politician on the Bench, and obtain in this the highest office in the gift of the people, men who not finding it necessary to be "handshaking politicians" in all seasons the year, will be given to understand, efficiency, honesty and promptitude are what their positives demand. And remember too, we have the Recall. VOTE FOR THE DIRECT PRIMARY! VOTE FOR NUMBERS 1, 2, 7 AND 9 ON YOUR BALLOT AND BY THIS MEANS PUT THE GOVERNMENT OF THE STATE ENTIRELY IN THE HANDS OF THE PEOPLE.

HUSBANDS AND MULE DRIVERS A youth, who was rejected by his promised bride, will take the money he had intended to spend on a honeymoon and buy a team of mules with it. His decision is both rational and pragmatic. More men ought to buy mules instead of wedding rings, than is the case. Of course, a good wife is better than any team in the world, but it is much easier to pick a winning span of mules, than to make a sure-fire go of a romance. Besides, there are more men in the world who can manage a brace of barnyard canaries than those who can run a household. Our people will do well to go out to Trinity Auditorium tonight wheer the Governor will speak on the issues before the people for next Tuesday's election, in view of the high favors which the Governor has recently bestowed upon the Race. We should turn out in large numbers on this occasion. Go early and get a seat. On Sunday October 24th, at Providence Inst. Bapt. Church Cor.

A - Musical Genius Unique among the composers of Los Angeles, and indeed in all America, is Mrs. Pauline Daniels she is a natural born musician of great talent. Her method of composition is unparalleled for originality. She composes and memorizes a song without touching pen to paper; without writing down a single note then she sings it in the presence of a competent musician well versed in the technique of the art, who takes the nees as she sings and transcribes them to paper in the conventional manner. The merit of the music so created and the great talent of the gifted composer is attested by the well known published songs as "O Jesus of Nazareth and "She has fit the path to heaven" introduced and sung with great success by Halls jubilee singers. Mrs. Pauline Brooks Daniels is the wife of Mr. L. Daniels the well known and popular buffet club car man on the Southern Pacific Shore Line Limited, operated between Los Angeles and San Francisco.

The hall was decorated in tissue of gold trimmings as it never was before. In the center stood a large bouquet of ferns and flowers, with the electric bulb extending down to the gold, giving it a rich color, planted around hundreds of butter scotch which the guests partook of freely, over the transom stood a large golden eagle, decorated with large pennants, reading California Eagle, Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego. In addition to the orchestra, in the adjoining refreshment hall, special entertainers kept the hall echoing with music constantly, as never before. The editorial staff of Los Angeles was present to see that everything was as represented. Mr. J. B. Bass made a few witty remarks, on the progress of The California Eagle. The manager had a special prize for each contestant. Mrs. A. C. Hannahs secured the first prize, which was a 2-pound box of Bishop's Rough House chocolate; Miss Theodora Lloyd, second prize; Miss Marie Yoling, third prize; Miss Noni Jackson, fourth prize. Now we are free to say that we spared neither pains or money in placing The Eagle second to none in its affairs.

Eimerman, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harvey M. Eimerman of San Bernardino, picked up a coiled rattlesnake in Reche canyon and proudly advanced and showed it to his parents and other members of the picnic party. Two little girls dashed on ahead to announce the approach of the reptile, which the boy carried with both hands. The horrified parents and other shrieked to the boy of his danger but he gave no heed. The snake uncoiled and dropped to the ground. Angered by the action the boy kicked the snake twice, then picked it up in the middle, spanked it and strolled off towards the camp fire and said, "Burn you, burn you." Then the father snatched him away and ended the snake's suffering. It had seven rattles. The snake made no effort to strike the boy. ladies present, but Miss Orphelia Ellis and Miss Corona White were the center of attraction. List of those present at the soiree. Mr. and Mrs. M. N.

Not even the aeroplane has ever equalled this rate of speed for the distance. Is the new city civil service commission to be turned into a free employment bureau? It might serve for less worthy purposes, advocates of a municipal employment agency said today. At the first public examination held by the civil service commission in the city hall there weer six candidates for initiation, of these two were men and four women. The examination was for stenographers, and the number was not one-fourth as large as expected, but had those out of employment realized that the candidates would be closely watched by a number of business men and that they might be given positions in private concerns without having to wait for municipal vacancies, it is probable that there would have been many more present. The papers of each candidate were placed in envelopes and sealed, numbers being used to designate each one. In marking the papers, the commissioners will know them only by number. In this manner it will be impossible for them to play any favorites. Their decisions will be rendered soon. There is only one position open at the city hall, but there may be others It seemed to realize the helplessness of the lad, or else was charmed by the youngster's fascination for it. It is related the boy had always exhibited fondness for snakes. There is a lesson in this for you. Study it. San Diego, Pacific Coast's second city with completion of San Diego & Arizona R.

Irwin, president of the Citizens Savings Bank, which is again making building loans at 7 per cent without commission. "Our reserve is going up," said Irwin, "when things looked bad we had to hold down like everybody else, but now our reserve is more than required and we are making building loans. Deposits have increased $70,000 since the last call. We know of instances where persons are taking their money out of safety deposit vaults and putting it out. We know of one man who had $10,000 in a vault and took it out and loaned it on 7 per cent mortgages. Times are getting better, there is plenty of money to loan, confidence is being restored.

In the resolution Mayor Capps was accused of insulting the uniform of the U.S. navy. It is true that that I did ask Mr. Culver such questions said the Mayor and that he made the answer attributed to him. What veterans who passed the resolution do not know and what stenographer's notes of the hearing will disclose, is that I immediately disavowed any intention to cast odium on the navy boys. That my apologies were accepted and at the request of Councilman Fay was ordered spread on the minutes. The incident was regarded by the councilmen and audience as entirely lacking in any motive on my part to cast any reflection upon the members of the uniform of the navy. I think I can claim to be as patriotic in word and deed as FIRST CLASS HOME COOKING MR. AND MRS. C. SWAIN, PROPS.

It was compiled by John F. Davis, ex-Code Commissioner of California. The work is not an abridgment of all the laws of the State, but a compilation of those provisions of the statutes believed to be of most concern to the people in general. It represents laws and legal forms prepared tor the use of farmers, mechanics and business men. Each contestant that was present at the soiree, as aforesaid, received a large box of chocolate candy. Santa Fe Request Refused by Ocean Side: Because the body of the document indicated that it was intended to apply to railroad trains and railroad property, while the title indicated its intention to be to cover the entire city, the city trustees have declined to adopt an ordinance requested by the Santa Fe Railway prohibiting the solicitation by drummers of business for hotels, restaurants and automobiles. An emphatic protest to the adoption of the ordinance was made by the local hotel and restaurant men.

The many friends of this young couple hope that their dream may be realized as they are so evenly matched and their admiration for each other is visibly mutual. Were society's most critical matrons to stand as judges, their unanimous benediction would invoke the everlasting nuptial blessings on this happy pair. NON- PARTISAN IS NOT NEW IN THIS STATE.

To the colored people of Greater Los Angeles, Here is an Important Question. Where are you spending the $60,000 annually for Accident, Health, Life and Fire Insurance? This is a Big Question. Loyal Racemen and Women, what shall your answer be? Are those who write your insurance or collect your weekly premiums helping to build up our Race Enterprises? Are they giving employment to your boys and girls? As a race we must make places for the thousand thrifty young Negro boys and girls that are being trained in our schools. Therefore let Negroes spend their money with their own Race concerns, for as a Race we should teach race pride in giving our support to the struggling enterprises fostered by members of the Race as we must depend upon one another in business as well as socially, therefore, racemen and women, you who are looking forward to making a place for that Boy or Girl, you should spend your money with the colored insurance concerns. They will make a place for your daughter, after they leave the school room, and not retrograde and finally fill a menial position in some white agent's kitchen, but rather show your race pride by patronizing race enterprises when you are in need of sick, accident and fire insurance. The colored ministry should preach special sermons on the importance of patronizing race concerns. For general insurance, health, life or fire, real estate, call or phone the Sidney P. Dones Co., 818 Central Ave Phone Broadway 8291. If it is insurance See Dones. FAMILY TRADE Solicited G. R. VOSS & GEO. W. MAYLE Proprietors.
