The power to perceive and grasp the truth seems to be overshadowed by other forces such as self-interest of the nation or individual, so that the vision is confined only to those things which conveniently fit in with the prejudice of the moment.
Modern Convenience
Convenience is too often made the arbiter of general rules. In all states of society that are domined by convenience, equitable considerations are associated with dreams of the night rather than with the thoughts, words and deeds of the day. Consequently, much truth lies hidden between the layers of convenience with which our modern civilization is enamored, and many burdens of iniquity are uselessly continued. The truth may not always be pleasing, but it is for your soul's health that you should hear it.
Experience gathers truth upon every field of life. There is but one truth, and all that is gathered is part of the one, and therefore all experience leads to an affinity of knowledge. The All-American League must come through the path of experience and be associated with that "justice and truth" that "goeth before the throne." The lack of justice and truth leads to the absence of mercy and grace.

bers of the church who were so interested in my wife's welfare. To the Rev. W. J. J. Byers, of the First A. M. E. Zion church, who assisted the pastor in conducting the funeral services, and members of his congregation who were so loyal and helpful; to her close friends of the Second Baptist church (Mr. and Mrs. Hulbert) and Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Champion, and to all who were so wonderful helpful, I wish to extend my sincere and heartfelt thanks.

Everybody is going to the cycle of pleasure beginning at 2 o'clock this afternoon and continuing until 11 o'clock tonight. Take Washington street car, get off at New Hampshire and go to house number 1747.
From those who have kept tab and who know, it is said that Assemblyman Mouser has made one of the best records as a member of the legislature of all the members of that body for the past four years, and in announcing his candidacy it is his desire to even improve on that record for the next term, feeling thensly he announces his candidacy to succeed himself, and since the amalgamation of Progressives and Republicans he is running simply as a straight Republican, last campaign he was nominated on both the Republican and Progressive tickets.
Mr. Mouser has demonstrated all through his public career a strong friendship for his Colored constituents and even his enemies cannot help but say that he has always stood for them and gave and helped them in gaining political recognition. And for this and many other equally as important reasons Mr. Mouser will without doubt receive from this people a strong support. And if nominated and elected will no doubt keep up the good work.

Last Sunday closed the rally, amount raised being $240. The sacred concert Sunday night was very good and well attended. The choir will give a sacred concert the 4th Sunday night in each month. Sunday will be Communion day. Rev. J. A. Stout, the presiding elder, will preach at both services. A cordial welcome is extended to all.
Rev. W. J. J. Byers, Pastor
Last Sunday was Children's day. The pastor preached at the morning service and at the evening service the Sunday school rendered its program, a feature of which was an educational address by Attorney W. A. Tyler. A splendid audience greeted the children and the attorney.
Sunday will be Communion day and no doubt a large audience will be present. At both services Pastor Byers will occupy the pulpit. The subject for the morning subject will be, "Heavenly Witness and Record."

E. E. Lightner, Minister.
The Sunday school, under the superintendency of Mra. Cora Dennia, rendered its annual Children's day program last Sunday morning at the regular hour for service. The exercises by the children were very interesting and instructive. At the evening service Rev. W. F. Greevy, returned missionary from South America, delivered a very helpful message, taking as his text, "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path."
The pastor will occupy the pulpit at both services on Sunday. Subject for the morning, "Christian Self Denial." Evening, "A Last Wish." Communion service Christian Endeavor 7 p.m. Topic, "How To Make Ours An Ideal Nation." Leader, Bro. J. W. Morris. A cordial welcome to all these services.

tor were immensely helpful, convincing and very applicable to every-day life, as well as certain important issues that are confronting the people of tais community. Six accessions, including one convert were made. At the conclusion of the morning session, Prof. ChasAlexander, former editor of the Los Angeles Post, and present editor of The Citizens Advocate, spoke briefly on the segregation subject, giving unshakeable reasons why segregation in the public schools of Southern California is undesirable. The audience manifested great interest in his remarks. Supplementary reports to the rally fund are still being made, the total, including Sunday evening's report, being $2086.
FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH NOTES
(Eighth and Towne Ave.)
Two metropolitan congregations greeted the pastor Sunday and the services were thoroughly edifying to each person present. The choir was impressive in its appearance and inspiringly effective in the rendition of each selection. With the class night addition there were three accessions to membership. The pastor delivered two sermons. Among the strangers introduced to the congregation was Mrs. E Williams of San Francisco, who delivered very encouraging remarks in a timely impromptu address. You are welcome to the services Sunday. The pastor will occupy the pulpit at both services.
A most profitable church conference was held last Thursday night and plans were launched for the successful entertainment of the forthcoming session of the annual conference scheduled to meet at First church the first Wednesday in September. The pastor also launched the "Dollar Money" campaign, and is now receiving daily from members and friends this yearly claim which maintains the greatest acro organization ever conceived or established, and sends the gospel to the heathen and works for the advent of the Master's kingdom, as well as opens the eyes of the blind and furthers the cause of education by maintaining schools for ministerial training. "The Dollar Money" accentuates and perpetuates the Pauline dogma of the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God. The member and friend who pays it bears his or her part of the load of lifting up the millions identified with the masses of the race. Pay your "Dollar Money" now either to your class leader or give or mail it to your pastor. Address J. Logan Craw, 1465 Griffith avenue.

Birch Street Christian Church
The members of this church are still holding services each Sunday at 1240 E. 9th street. Bro. Williams and others bring messages each Sunday. On last Sabbeth the Rev. Dunn, a devout young man from the First Christian church, delivered a most noble sermon. We are glad to see such young men doing God's work. We were pleased to have Bro. W. G. Hopper with us on last Sunday. We ask all to come to our services, as they are held as usual on Sunday and during the week.
Wesley Chapel
Last Sunday was a red letter day in the history of the church, both from a spiritual standpoint and from the inspiration along the lines of national life. The Sunday school under the leadership of Prof. Greene is crowding the Sunday school room almost to the point of forcing an enlargement. The Epworth League societies are growing each Sunday in interest and inspiration. At 11 o'clock am, the church was filled to hear the message of Pastor Kinchen on the subject of "The Dominant Quality in World Conquest." In the afternoon at 3 o'clock Brother James Brown and his splendid note choir thrilled the hearts of the people who were present to hear these wonderful songs of our fathers and mothers. Words can not describe the evening services. They were far beyond anything dreamed of by the pastor or the officers of the church.
Over 1200 people crowded into the church to pay tribute to the memory of the gallant members of the Tenth Cavalry who fell in battle in Mexico. There were over 200 of the most prominent white citizens of the city, and army officers of all ranks as well as privates. On the platform with the pastor were the retired officers and members of the Tenth Cavalry. The speakers were Capt. F. H. Crumbly, Lieut. Butler, Sergt. Thompeon, Sergt. F. Paine and severel white army officers.
Wesley chapel is moving on in the direction of spiritual and moral leadership, and both the church and the pastor stand ready to serve the community in every way possible.
Breakfast Party to Visiting
The palatial residence of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Jones on W. 36th street was the scene of a most delightful breakfast party given in honor of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Most, Mr. and Mrs. Jacobe of San Jose, and Mrs. McCall of Falo Alto, who had formed an automobile party in Mr. Most's 7-passenger Studebaker from San Jose to this city.
Rev. Greggs and wife and Mrs. J. H. Shackleford were guests to make up the entire party, covers being laid for nine prepared by the hostess.
The home was beautifully decorated, as was also the table, the color scheme being in keeping with a profusion of pink hydrangias. A five-course service prepared in the manner of which Mrs. Jones is mistress, gave her guests cause to ever remember the entertainment given in such royal manner by their most hospitable host and hostess.

THE L. A. POST IS FLOUNDERING
The shot and shell poured into the citadel of the L. A. Post has hit the mark and their boat is almost out of commission. In fact, it came out three days late this week minus an editor. We shot the bridge away, with nothing to stand on, it is now nigh impossible to get a Negro game enough to play pigtail for the white owners of the Post.
The Colored people of the community are also getting wise to themselves and are discontinuing their subscriptions. They have never had any ads to speak of.
Poor old Brown and Rose are sadder but wiser men. Hereafter play in your own back yard. See!
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY RE-UNITED
The Progressives of the Nation through the action of their National Executive Committee have accepted the results of the Republican National Convention, and there will be a united support for the Republican nominees. The program of the Progressive wing of the Republican party making Americanism and Preparedness the chief issues of that party with which they go before the voters has been accepted nearly in toto, and though losing the nominee, the Progressives are to be congratulated in common with the balance of the Nation, that Charles E. Hughes has demonstrated through all of his public utterances since his nomination that he is thoroughly progressive with no entangling alliances with reaction, and can be depended on to carry out the Rooseveltian policy of demanding the respect of foreign nations. Both wings of the Republican party have come together with some semblance of genuine earnestness and great potriotism, as sacrifices were made on both sides. The oldliners lost Root and the Progressives lost Roosevelt, and it will be proven that the Nation has gained through this compromise.
It is now the duty of the rank and file who love their country first, to close ranks and marche upon the citadel of Democratic deficiency. In his patriotic letter addressed to Colonel Roosevelt, Charles E. Hughes makes this ringing endorsement of the motives and the course of Colonel Roosevelt: "I know you have been guided in this emergency by the sole desire to be of the largest service to the United States. You have sounded forth the trumpet which shall never call retreat." And it is the resonance of that trumpet-call that will lead the Republican party to victory in November. The Republican party platform is the most patriotic document ever issued by any political party since the days of Lincoln, and aims at the "revival of the American spirit—a Nation restored." Again as Mr. Hughes has said in his letter to the Progressive National Committee: "We make common cause in the interest of national honor, of national security, of national e ciency. We unite in the demand for an undivided and unwavering loyalty to our country; for a hole-hearted patriotic devotion over-riding all racial differences." Thus the Republican party stands a united party, meeting on a common ground and battling for a common cause. Past differences must be forgotten, or remembered only to avoid the catastrophes of 1912, and it is written that the present democratic administration is relegated to the "scrap heap." We have shaken hands, now let's make up! The man who does less is no American, and should be hyphenated.
The L. A. Tribune of Wednesday, June 28th, had this to say concerning the part played by Negroes in the wars of the nation.
The "Tenth" at Las Guasimas and Carrizal
The first battle of the war with Spain was fought at Las Gusasimis, near Santiago, in Cuba, when, on June 28, 1896, the celebrated Rough Riders had their baptism of fire. Wood and Roosevelt led into action 450 of the Rough Riders, supported by 200 of the First cavalry and 224 of the Tenth, then, as now, made up of Negroes. Taken by surprise, and subjected to a heavy fire from the outnumbering Spanish forces in concealment, the volunteers hesitated upon the rain of bullets. The Tenth cavalry came to their rescue with the intrepidity of disciplined veterans.
Colonel Waterson, in his history of the Spanish-American war, records:
The courage of the Black troops as they charged deliberately up the slope was everywhere applauded. There was no hurry, no hesitation, but cool deliberation. When a man was struck his comrade turned and called "Hospital!" with as much presence of mind as if
After a lapse of eighteen year "the Black Tenth" figures in the opening engagement on Mexican soil. The same heroim that was displayed in the first battle of the Spanish-American war.was shown again at Carrizal, when the Black troopers were led into an ambuscade.
Reflecting on the service rendered by "the Black Tenth" in Cuba, and now, after the lapse of eighteen years, in Mexico, we are disagreeably affected by this dispatch from Washington: The suggestion has been sent to the war department from a government official in El Paso that one hundred thousand Negro troops be recruited in the Southern states for use in the event that the United States invades Mexico. The suggestion was telegraphed today and is based on the theory that the Negro troops will be better able to cope with conditions in the desert country of Mexico than would other troops. Before the government calls upon the Negroes of the South to raise one hundred thousand recruits for Mexican service, would it not be well for that same government first to take steps that will assure Negroes in the South their political rights? If they are good enough to die for it, as they died at Las Guasimas in June, 1896, and at Carizal in June, 1916, then they are good enough to vote in it.
The Tribune has always been fair and not afraid to speak right out in the defense or praise of the Negro. This is more than we can say concerning any other daily in this city and very few in any other city in the Union. A paper like this should find a warm place in the hearts and homes of the Colored people of this city.
A DISTINGUISHED VISITOR
Mr. William Nauns Ricks of Oakland is spending his vacation at the home of Mrs. S. Wright of Santa Monica, and looks in on the city daily.
Our acquaintance with Mr. Ricks for the past few years has been a source of information and inspiration, for we have been a close student of his poetic contributions to modern literature and find them to be meritorious in every way.
As Scott and Burns sang of the fatherland, so sings Mr. Ricks of his people in this country. In every bit we find a sort of pleading, but manly ring in blank verse and rhythm asking for universal brotherhood of all mankind.
Some of his poems have been published in the leading journals and magazines of this country and his ability as poetic genius is recognized by the best literary authority.
Mr. Ricks, however, represents not the old but a new school of poets, for he works not only with brains, but alike with his hands. For eleven years he has been in the employ of the California Trust Canners Association in the main office or department of secretary. This is one of the largest concerns in the state of California.
Mr. Ricks started to write poetry in 1905, but has accomplished the bulk of his 400 poems within the past two years.
Among some of his most landable contributions which have been published by the San Francisco and New York papers was Memorial Day poem which we are publishing here:
DO WE REMEMBER?
Full fifty years have passed away,
Yea, fifty years, have day by day
Fulfilled the laws of destiny
And passed into eternity.
Hear you the drums throughout the land?
Old drums—which know the master hand,
Whose fervent practice for this day,
Has swept the fifty years away?
These souls—whose darkened chambers keep,
The key where memories lie deep;
Are breaking all the bounds this day,
To live this thirtieth of May.
With tattered flags and dream-fired gait,
(Impatient if, the line should wait),
Come men who fifty years ago
Were flushed with manhood's healthy glow.
Not less today; but fifty years
Have brought conditions fraught with tears,
For some are poor and all are old;
But hearts as true, as brave, as bold,
Beat underneath those coats of blue,
As when in youth they dared to do
The bidding of their souls—for right.
How bravely now they face the night.
Do we remember why they fought?
Have we from them their vision caught?
Does Liberty stand out as clear?
Is Freedom to our hearts as dear?
If not, this thinning line of blue
Proclaims us to our trust untrue.
If we forget their sacrifice,
We stand disgraced before their eyes.
Let Freedom true our land embrace,
That we, like them, the grave may face;
In conscious pride of work well done,
To keep Old Glory in the sun.
WILLIAM NAUNS RICKS.
The Citizens Advocate is the name of a brand new Negro journal, 6 column, 8 page paper, which made its first appearance last week. It is neatly gotten up and bears the imprint of one who knows journalism. The editor and owner is the well known literary genius, Prof. Charles Alexander. The Eagle welcomes to the field this new effort and coming to us as a Negro journal published by a Negro we certainly wish it unqualified success

The parlor hostesses who assisted in dispensing hospitality were the Misses Inez and May Jones and Josephine Brown.

M. H.
Greetings: The unerring hand of a Most Holy Father has brought us upon the threshold of another session of our Convention and it is my pleasure to state that the sessions will be held at New Hope Baptist church, San Bernardino, Cal., on July 6 and 7, 1916.
These are to be epoch making sessions for more than one reason and one of the paramount features will be the daily lectures to the Convention by Rev. G. W. Reed, who has won for himself an enviable reputation as a specialist in young peoples religious work.
Bear in mind that our Convention Constitution allows one delegate for each twenty members or fraction thereof; and each delegate will be charged at the rate of fifteen cents per meal while at the Convention. The latter is a new law enacted at our Pasadena session in 1915.

COMPANY OF DENVER
We have data which puts the above company in a very bad light—insolar as their colored clientage is concerned. And will give the same to the public in our next issue.
This Company has a very large number of Colored policy holders and it will no doubt be of more than passing interest to the same.

A WIDE AWAKE HUSTLER
I. H. Scott, located near the corner of 9th on Central, is making a phenomenal success as a dealer in Negro pictures. His salesroom at that number is attracting great interest. Mr. Scott also handles The California Eagle and has added in the short time that he has accepted our agency, many new subscribers to our list. He handles all pictures put out by the American Art Company, and our readers will do well to call on him for anything in his line.
Rev. A. C. Williams, Former Pastor of Prov. Inst. Baptist Church, Who Is Pastoring One of the Largest Churches in the Southland Hiringham, Alabama.
Senator H. H. Lyons is a man that absolutely stands for all the people all the time, and no announcement for public office will be received with greater enthusiasm than that of the genial and popular State Senator from the 29th Senatorial District. By many the only regret is that the Senator is not announcing himself for U. S. Senator, Governor or something of that sort. The people admire a man who stands by them and on all issues Senator Lyons has always been found on the side of the people. The Colored voters will recognize in him at once a friend tried and true, who has at all times stood for recognition for them. In the legislature his record will show that he has obtained more positions for this people than all the Senators of the state combined.
There is no doubt that the Senator will receive a strong support from all classes and if nominated and elected will render the same efficient service in the future as in the past.
