ESTABLISHED 1879 LEADING RACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE MAIN 1594 Baptist W. M. E. Baptist Convention W. M. REXNOLDS W. M. REYNOLDS A. B. P. U. IN ANNUAL MEET Wednesday, July 15, in the ninth annual session of the Baptist Sunday School, and B. Y. F. K. is invention assembled with the New Hope Baptist church of San Bernardino of which Rey F. W. Cooper is pastor. Wednesday morning at 9:30 the session was called to order by President W. M. Reynolds. At that hour most of the delegate were in their places and responded to the roll call. It is needless to state that it was a happy meeting, for as the representatives responded to the call and took their places per the direction of President Reynolds. A few vacant seats were there, and a few voice-that once joined in sweet accord with those present had been hushed, such as that of Father C. H. Anderson, who at the time perhaps was permitted to turn his microscopic vision, earned by his many years' toil, upon us and reported to the angels assembled about the throne that a mighty meeting was in progress. The first day. Wednesday's session, set the pace for the succeeding ones. Conspicuous 1 among the numbers, however, was the address of welcome by Mayor Nixon, who appeared in person and heartily endorsed the work of the brothers in Black, commending them for their loyalty to the country in times of crisis, and for the great gospel trust such as they were spreading VOLUME 29 HILBERT BOZIER The California Eagle upon this occasion. Rev. J. M. Kiddle of Friendship, Pasadena, responded to the mayor on the behalf of the convention and collaborated also upon the bravery and valor of members of his Race, especially those serving in the U.S. Army and Navy. The other two features of the first day was President Reynolds address with its many and timely recommendations for the future education and spiritual development of the organization and the paper by Miss Myrtle Anderson on the subject. "Preparedness which was a masterpiece of eloquence. Miss Anderson is an expert of striking ability. Each year as she appears before the convention marked improvement is noted. Each conventional day at San Bernardino appeared brighter and brighter. Thursday morning the scene was changed, and as we were we thought that we had already listened to all of the good things that could come from the convention in one year, but when the brave B. Y. P. U. workers were ushered into prominence, we soon learned that other good things were in store for us. President S. P. Johnson called the convention to order upon this day, and their welcome address on behalf of San Bernardino was delivered by Miss F. Harrison, and responded to by Mrs. Eva Solomon of Pasadena, both addresses were highly meritorious and befitting to the occasion. President S. P. Johnson's annual address was as usual inspiration to the body and filled with new thought that will form a foundation for a stronger and better union. Friday, July 7th, was joint session for the two bodies. The most important feature of this day was the election of officers for the ensuing year, which were as follows: From the Sunday School President—Capt. W. M. Reynolds. Vice President—Miss Myrtle Anderson. Organist—Mr. Wyndon. Choraster — Miss Antonette Young. Vice President—S. N. Miller. Recording Secretary — Mrs Florence A. L. Gordon. Corresponding Secretary—Hil bert Rozier. Treasurer—Mrs. Millie Taylor Organist—Mr. Hopkins. Chorister—Miss Ollie Green. One of the most instructive features of the convention were the three connected lectures by Rev. G. W. Reed, who demonstrated that much study, and application had thoroughly prepared him the task undertaken. The presence of Dr. and Mrs. San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES. CALIFORNIA. JULY 15. 1916 H. D. Proud was warmly welcomed and it is believed by the people that the presence of a man like Dr. Proud in this section will mean much spiritually and intellectually to this people. After a very pleasant automobile trip over the city which was accorded the delegates by the citizens of San Diego the convention adjourned to meet next July at the Tabernacle Baptist church. Los Angeles. MISS VELMA MARIE WOOD IN RECITAL When it was announced that Miss Wood would appear in recital at Blanchard Hall under the auspices of the Second Baptist Church, it was anticipated that a rare musical treat would be the order of things, but as it were the half had not been told. Last Tuesday evening when Miss Wood for the first time appeared before a crowded audience in recital the most sanguine expectation of even her admirers was surpassed. Among the numbers rendered by Miss Wood was the "Soneta quasi luna Fantasia—L. Van Beethoven (op. 27). Mendelssohn—"Spring Song." and S. P. JO S. P. JOHNSON S. P. JOHNSON Franz Liszt "Rhapsodie hongroise No. 2." Those who listened to Miss Wood upon this occasion predict for her the most brilliant future as a musician yet produced by the West. Miss Wood is sweetly simple in her stage manner, and appeals to her audience not only because of her perfect technique, grace and ease, but also because of her pleasing and effective attitude when executing. The other numbers of the program that attracted special notice was the oration by Master Geo. MRS. FLORENCE A. L. GORDON Gatliff, who is always a star and Mr. J. H. Cuffes "If the World Would Just Turn Backward," by little Velma White. Among those who highly ap- at San Bernardino. prepare the effort of Maslil Wood and her mother and tutor, Mrs. Wood, who is absolutely responsible for the success of her daughter, were Mr. and Mrs. Baylie—the letter from whom we are publishing here: Los Angeles.

Sixty-six aged mothers and inathers found their way, through the courtesy of the transportation committee, to First church and worshipped. Free dinner was served to these, and more than 200 others. The photographs of the old people were taken, and an old-fashioned class service enjoyed until 4 o'clock, when the aged folks were returned home. One of these mothers gave her age as 116 years. A unanimous vote of thanks was extended by the official board to all who helped in making this annual affair such a grand success. Now comes the official announcement of the fifty-ninth annual session of the California Conference of the A.M.E. church to convene in First church, this city, with Rev.

Elmendorf announces his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Assemblyman of the 73rd District. Mr. Elmendorf is a native of New York State and came to Los Angeles 25 years ago, and has resided in this Assembly district continuously for that period. He has never held public office in this state, but has always been interested and actively engaged in furthering the best civic and political interests of the community.

He is a believer in sound, cane and just legislation and opposed to all legislation of the special privilege type. He strongly favors legislation that will reduce taxation and protect the home. Legislation that gives equal rights to women. Legislation that will protect the children of the state. Legislation that will enlarge the scope and efficiency of our educational institutions. Legislation that will not encroach upon the personal liberty of the citizens granted by the Constitution. Legislation that will advance and protect the industries of the state. Legislation that will make for effectiveness, efficiency and economy in the administration in the various departments of state government. If elected to this office he assures us that he will put forth his best efforts to influence legislation that will protect and advance the interests of all the citizens of the State. The Citizens of Monrevia Hold Great Meeting Editor of Eagle Receives Ovation From Business League. At the kind invitation of the citizens of Monrovia the editor on last Tuesday journeyed to that place, and at the beautiful and commodious structure of the A.M. E. Zion church found a crowd of both colored and white citizens awaiting our arrival. The League stands for progress, and the president in introducing us said that personally he had never met us, but that he was a reader of the Eagle and that from the mere fact that the Eagle is what it is, he was satisfied that its editor would be an inspiration to this people. We addressed the people at length "On the Progress of the Race." And from the manifestation and constant applause, we take it that we at least brought to them a message worthy of consideration. We were accompanied by quite a delegation of Los Angeles citizens. E. J. Gaines, R. G. Lamar, G. P. Brown and W. H. Sanders. At the conclusion of our address we presented them to the people of Monrovia, and all acquitted themselves with credit with short, spicy addresses. We truly appreciate our visit to this people and for the opportunity in our feeble way to be of service to them. I understand the Women's Federation (colored) of Southern California are contemplating sending some token of esteem to the Tenth cavalry to do them honor for their valiant services rendered to their country at Carrizal, Mexico. I acknowledge that those brave heroes deserve great credit and much credit and honor, but in doing them homage for what they have done, I do not think we should encourage our sons to assimilate. Now, you may become wonder-struck at such an assertion, but when I call your attention to the fact that there is not By Hilbert L. Rozier. The Y.M.C.A. will meet their old rivals, Pasadena, in a game of American pastime at Echo park this afternoon. As this is picnic day at the park, a large crowd will be in evidence and a great little argument should be the order of the day. Of course I am neutral, naturally, but if Pasadena wine they'll have to get up and bustle. Our pets beat Pasadena in their first battle and are considerably stronger now than then. Admission free. Honest, now, how can I miss it? The Progressive Literary club is extending its membership quite a bit, as a number of Pasadena's young smart set have announced their intention of joining, among whom are Martha Napper and Ruth and Loretta Riddje. The club announces its welcome to these aspirants. The Progressive club entertains at the home of Julius Baker tonight with a program including a part of Romeo and Juliet. Miss Mayne Lowe's singing will be another feature of the program. Summer school has its charm for the girls and the girls. Well, the boys enroll, too. Discussing summer school with some club fellows, Clarence James learned that Miss Mayme Lowe was attending. The next day Mr. James was among those enrolled. You may form your own conclusion. Ethyl Temple—"Little boys are the cutest kind of boys." Julins Baker—"I'm on my way to Ceres avenue." Lawrence Greene—"Bub Howdy." Josephine Baker—"I want to sell you some tickets." Did you know that special delivery letters from San Bernardino to Los Angeles are getting common since the convention? Automobile rides are as common as three squares in San Bernardino. For Supervisor. Peter H. Updike, candidate for Supervisor for the 4th District, is a safe man to represent the people on the Board of Supervisors. He has a broad business experience and is filled with the spirit of Western progress and is well equipped, both from the standpoint of experience and natural ability, for the position. He has given time and study to the needs of the county, and if elected would spend the taxpayers' money conservatively and with due regard to needed progress and improvements throughout the county. He has been eminently successful in the conduct of his own business, and would give the same conscientious and energetic effort to the county's business which has always characterized the conduct of his own business. Mr. Updike is a strong advocate of good roads and flood control; the application of business principles in all matters coming under the supervision of the Board of Supervisors. He is opposed to the prodigal expenditure of money by the Supervisors and a strong exponent of the reduction of the high rate of taxation, which now burdens the people of this county. Peter H. Updike, candidate for Supervisor for the 4th District, was the president of the Long Beach Republican club during the last state election, and is a firm believer in the Republican principles and policies as applied to We sell High Brown Face Powder, 25c and 50c sizes Hig Brown Soap, Aida Hair Pomade.

To our minds the American government made their demands and then Carranza made some and Carranza got what he asked as the American government backed up. This is truly democratic incompetence. The Republican committee as constituted is in poor business of seriously considering the twaddle brought them by the Negro gossipers that seem to have their ears at this time. We had no desire to wash any dirty linen before that committee, but they had better get wise to differentiate between the real and the bunk if they expect results in the pending campaign. THE FIGHTING PARSON SCORES VICTORY The success of the Fighting Parson as an evangelist at Pasadena seems to be absolute and now it seems that the Rev. J. Gordon McPherson is in his real realm, doing work for his Master. We now believe him right and do not hesitate to say so. We believe that in his efforts along these lines the saving of souls and the spiritual uplift, that he should have the support of all the people and that the time for all we know is ripe for a mighty revival in this bailiwick.

Our good friend, Dr. Kitchen has a perfect right to give his undying support to any paper of his choice, be it a lim Crow journal or otherwise, we certainly have no objection. As a newspaper man we certainly have no time to interfere with any particular church or organization, to successfully conduct our own business we have our hands full. As to our unmanliness we take it that if this Christian gentleman can qualify to pass judgment on us, we have no desire to qualify to pass the same judgment on him. We have, however, been manly enough time and again to refuse paid articles in that paper that attacked him and at the same time this great apostle whom he extolls so highly, greedily accepted some of the same articles that lambasted him. For this, from this distinguished and eminent divine, coupled with the "Old Hickory" who is another divine whom we have accused of misconduct and misrepresenting the high calling of the ministry, we verily believe that we can survive. POLITICAL POT PIE E. J. Delorey, the village blacksmith, has been making a dignified canvass and is reaching the common, plain, every day people of his district. He is meeting with flattering success and will no doubt render a good account of his efforts on August 29th at the primaries. The Civic League will meet on Monday evening at 1331 Central Ave. A special program will be rendered as well as short talks by several candidates. The Independent League &i Watts held an enthusiastic meeting last Monday evening and are getting in shape for the campaign. The Hughes and Fairbanks Club will hold a meeting Monday evening, the 17th, at the neighborhood hall, corner of Wilson and 9th street. Wednesday was a strenuous day for the Republican central committee. After an all-day session, however, they ironed out the disputes in the various districts and presented a set of men and women for election as committeemen that will no doubt be acceptable to the rank and file of the parity. From the 68th, L. Barnett and F. B. Alexander were selected; from the 73rd, C. Oliver and Mrs. Shelton; from the bloody 74th, Messrs R. H. Penson, W. J. Fitzpatrick, C. S. Wilson and Mrs. C. A. Spear-Bass Some of these days the higher ups as managers of political parties will lend a listening ear to the people and not continue to be humbugged by those who are the exponents of gum politics and those who really have neither the ears or the confidence of the people at large.

THE DARK HORSE The proverbial dark horse has appeared in the race for supervisor of the fourth district. In the interest of good clean county government, Mr. John B. Reeves, contractor and president of the Master Plumbers' Association, has finally been persuaded to enter. Two of the present supervisors. Messrs. Norton and Hamilton, are supporting Mr. Reeves, and taking all active part in the campaign for his election. The fact that he has been selected by them out of such a large field of candidates is a flattering testimonial to the esteem in which he is held by them. His platform which follows is surely based on good sound principles, and it is predicted that he will be elected to aid Supervisor Norton and Hamilton in their efforts to free this country of the rotten political graft, and the hand of invisible government now said to exist. I favor good roads, good schools, adequate flood control and good and efficient county government, economically administered. I am opposed to unnecessary red tape, legal technicalities and delays in handling public business. I will promptly investigate to see that every citizen having business with the county in any of its offices shall have prompt, courteous and efficient service. I am opposed to absenteeism in office. If elected Supervisor, I will promptly attehd all sessions. I am for public ownership of public utilities in the county as well as in cities. I stand for the strictest enforcement of the liquor laws and John W. Dawson Republican Candidate for State Senator 37th Senatorial District.

A silver offering will be taken. The new pastor, Rev. Moore of Prov. Inst. church, preached at both services last Sunday and was heartily received by his new flock. Mrs. Moore is a missionary and Sunday school worker of wide influence, and no doubt will be a great acquisition to that work in this field.

Keeping Within the Circle. The leasing of their new hall from the Masonic Temple association by the Knights and Daughters of Tabor is certainly a move that is of more than passing notice because of the fact that it is a movement of our forces getting together, two separate and distinct organizations of our people doing business the one with the other; the hundreds of dollars of rents paid out annually now being paid to their own organizations. The order is to be congratulated for setting this precedent, and to Rev. W. J. J. Byers, W. W. Ross and P. E. Alexander, who have worked to bring this about, is due unstinted credit. All of the Temples, Tabernacles Tents and other auxiliary organizations will move to their new home in the Masonic Temple. 1209 1-2 Central avenue, on August 1. T. A. Harris, president of the Masonic Temple association, is also to be congratulated for his broad-guaged spirit in making it possible for these two great organizations to be as separate as the fingers on the hand in their work, and that they can do business for racial progress and uplift as one great body. Odd Fellows Grand Entertainment Tuesday Night. At Odd Fellows hall, corner Wall and 8th streets, Tuesday Golden Rule Lodge will be given one of the grandest affairs of the year.

A. Barnes to furnish three columns with political joins each week, so as to keep pace with things political from this section. J. B. Base, Editor. Federated Clubs Meet The last reciprocity meeting of the Federated clubs of San Diego was held at Masonic hall. 696 Market street. Tuesday, July 11, with a splendid representation from all clubs. Miss Cora White, the head of the department deserves and has earned for herself great praise for the creditable manner in which she has conducted these meetings, introducing several new features which added much to the success of the day. The manner of serving luncheon was one of the new features, instead of each individual preparing whatever portion of the lunch she desired. Miss White prepared a menu and sent notice to each club of the portion it was to provide. In this way all ample four-course luncheon was enjoyed to all and promptly on the hour agreed upon the clause went into session. Meeting opened with singing of the club song "In the Ranks," followed by prayer by Mrs. Childress. Reports of reciprocity meetings from all over the state were read by the secretary, after which heads of departments in San Diego rendered their reports showing that each one had been busy in the line of work assigned to her. The work of literature by Mrs. Spheight, and music department, by Mrs. T. H. Williams were of especial interest, and from these departments at least two permanent organizations will be formed in San Diego, a literary society and a costume musical. There being no reports from the suffrage department, Mrs. I. Henderson was given permission to speak instead, and showed a master mind in handling the political situation today as it affects our people. She urged upon all women present the vital necessity of taking advantage of their right of suffrage in the coming elections, and to demonstrate that she meant business produced her credential as a registration officer and offered to register all who had not done so, then and there. The paper by Mrs. E. W. Anderson, "The Colored Man's Place in the Business World," aroused more discussion than any other paper read before the assembly. She arranged her subject under two headings. "A Colored Man's Business and a Colored Business Man," handling both in a masterly manner, the main point being that when a man of the race does a business exclusively for his own people his standard is not so high as when he renders the same service to another race. Mrs Childress and Mrs. Alexander of the Helping Hand club lead the discussion, which soon became general. This reports of clubs were next read, the following clubs reporting: The Friday club, the Helping Hand club, the Athenian club and the Harmony club, all the reports showing a successful year. A most interesting part of the program was the item, "What part of the work of the Federation has been most beneficial to your club?" which was responded to with a three-minute speech by a representative from each club. Mr. Speights of the Athenian club dwelt upon the subject of union of harmony between the club, showing in a few well chosen words the large amount of goal that has been accomplished since the ladies have been inspired by the spirit of this union. Mr. Anderson of the Friday club had for his subject the good Mrs. Alexander of the Helping Hand spoke of the charitable work accomplished. Mrs. Harris of the Athenians and Mrs. Smith of the Harmony club also made short talks. At this point Miss White introduced to the club Mrs. Colwell, one of the instructors of the State Normal school, who spoke at length on home making as a profession, after which a general discussion followed the speaker, inviting the ladies present to question her on any point they wished further information, and she also gave a list of books for research work along these lines. Mrs. Jack White, third vice-president, next addressed the meeting and spoke most beautifully of the work we have set our hands to do, impressing it upon the minds of all present to be not weary in well doing. She also thanked the clubs and heads of departments for the support they had given her in her field of labor. Taken altogether, her speech was a very touching one and it is to be hoped will make a lasting impression. Mrs. White would make a good vice-president to succeed herself in fact with a few exceptions. San Diego clubs sound hardly no better than to ask that the same be appointed another year. After listening to a report from committees on credentials and courtesies, the assembly adjourned with repeating of "mizpah." The Gala Assembly Dancing club of San Diego is something unique in a way, being a private dancing club, with a membership of 40. Mrs. E. W. Anderson, who organized the club, is matron of same and at each dance puts forth every effort to make the affair socially perfect. In this she is assisted by Mrs. W. D. Saunders, Mrs. Parker, Miss Ophelia Ellis and Corona White, who, with the following gentlemen, T. H. Williams, W. D. Saunders, W. Mr. Donald, C. Hunter and E. W. Anderson, form an executive board for the management of the Club. There have been several special dances given since the organisation of this club, including a sport ball and a costume ball. At the latter prizes were given, the first prize being won by Frances Rans of Denver, niece of Mrs. Jack White, who came as an Indian maiden. Frank Fillis won first gentleman's prize as King Cotton, and W. J. Edwards third prize as Yama Yama man. The club, which meets the second and fourth Friday in each month, will have its next dance Friday, July 14. Cards are out for a reception in honor of Miss Velma Strickland and Mrs. E. D. Simpson at 1757 Essex place, July 17. Mrs Simpson, who was formerly Mrs. Hattie Jenkins, was recently married in Los Angeles. Mr. Simpson is an instructor in mathematics in an Eastern college.

Reynolds SEE AGENTS Southern Pacific Southern Pacific Service the Standard THE MUSICIAN PAGE RIGHT The Fighting Parson Burning Gospel A Revival Meeting On every side by sait and saint, young and old, white and black, the thousands of Pasadena residents, is the same expression: "The Fighting Parson." Rev. Dr. J. Gordon McPherson, the famous black revivalist, has made good. No evangelist ever came to the crown city and preached to such immense crowds night as this "Soldier Preacher" who burning messages, fiery sequence, native wit and humble thralled thousands and brought many hardened saints to the mercy seat. No man ever battled agonies, sin and morality with such power as this than of God as the Negro race have never given to the world an evangelist of power whose messages had made the nation sit up and tame motive or bow beneath the gospel scepter. Who knows but what God is raising up here in the west on the Pacific slope that man whose burning message must bring the back-sliding church back to their first love. May we learn a deep lesson from nature wearied of monotony, breaks to the surface of continents, she and there, by throwing up his mountain ranges, ribbing them with rock and crowning them with snow. This climates are modified and the conditions life are changed. So in the history of the world, God now and then breaks the monotony of his man life, by thrusting out extraordinary men, endured with power from on high. It can be said that the men who have moved the world into higher condition of thought and life have come from families and tribes of what nothing was said concerning the priesthood. Many of the prophets were men of extraordinary power when God would call the church back from apostasy and lift it out of corruption and superstition. "The Fighting Parson," Rev. J. Famous white suit he raises up men, endows them with genius, endures them with power and sends them out as a voice crying in the wilderness "Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight." In the age of spiritual decay thousand that have issued to the burning messages of gospel truths are convinced that Dr. McPherson, the black revivalist, is divinely called to the work of an evangelist. Do we not hear the voice crying in the wilderness? To the Negro church leaders God has raised up in our very midst a mighty evangelist whose only message is "Christ is all and in all." The hour for a spiritual awakening draweth night. Pasadena has been stirred as never before. Saints are edited, sinners are converted, the sick are being healed, an dhite poor have the gospel preached unto them. So great is the interest in the old time revivals under the leadership of the fighting parson, that plans are under way for a great union Septem- THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Company in the City of Los Angeles During The Last Few Months. of Carmona, Ramona sickness Le Marr, Lee sickness Davis, Mary L. sickness Hayden, Lou sickness Taylor, Kenneth sickness Wilkerson, Chas. sickness Cummings, Geo. accident Jaynes, Wm.

He is an active public spirited citizen and is chairman of the Rose Hill Improvement Association. Mr. Brady is not naturally inclined to politics, but acquires to a seat in this assembly because he believes there is a place in the halls of legislation for active, conscientious public spirited citizens. Mr. Brady is a stawart. Republican and had rather be styled a humanitarian than a politician. Mr. Brady is an ardent advocate of national preparedness. In a word Mr. Brady is the kind of man that should go to the assembly and the Colored voters of Monrovia and Dnartz, and in the sections above mentioned will make no mistake in supporting the then E. L. Brady for the assembly from the seventy-ninth district. In the near future a meeting will be held in Minnesota in the interest of Mr. Brady's candidacy, and when the arm movement has been made even wider in the vicinity should avail themselves of the opportunity of hearing a man who measures up to every requirement in the most visible position. It is an ill wind that blows nobody good. In the brought forward H. Utterback, who has proved himself to be a man absolutely on the square, joy his straightforwardness, he has made himself eligible to receive the consideration of the people at all times in the future. JOHN D. DAWSON FOR STATE SENATE John D. Dawson, the well-known attorney of 730-12 American Bank Building, is a candidate for State Senate from the 57th district. Mr. Dawson is one of those young progressive professional men who makes friends with all those with whom he comes in contact. He is well educated, well trained and has a large experience for a man of his years, and will add much to the delegation from Southern California in the upper house of the staff legislature. The Colored voters of the 57th district will make no mistake in supporting John D. Dawson for the State Senate. HINSAW FOR SUPER VISOR OF THE FOURTH Mr. William E. Hindhaw, Supervisor in the Fourth District, is distinguished by having more candidates seeking the office that he is filling than any other candidate for any office at the coming primary election. (Some fifteen or twenty men are out for Supervisor in the Fourth District.) And yet we do not hear of any complaint concerning Mr. Hinshaw's administration. He has conducted the office during a period of development that no other district in the county has been up against, and just now the affairs of that district are in such a shape that the experience obtained during his term of service is an asset that the county cannot afford to throw away and put another man in the office who will not be able to take up the different affairs as well as Mr. Hinshaw can be expected in do with the experience he has had.
