Mayor Woodman Hewing to the Line Members of the Race Make Promis Invention. ESTABLISHED 1879 LEADING RACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE MAIN 1594 VOLUME 29 Mayo Members of the R Inve THEY HAVE STRUCK THE KEY NOTE The Tip Top Battery, manufactured by the Oakland Carbon-Battery Company and invented by Mr. Geo. L. Tarver of Oakland, incorporated under the laws of California in 1912 with a capital stock of $10,000 is predicted as one of the safest and best investments owned and controlled by members of the Race. Mr. Tarver and his associates have made a desperate effort to introduce to our people the worth of said invention, realizing that it is the greatest dry cell battery that has ever been offered to the public. Until March of this year the O C. B. Company had manufactured their product by hand, but on account of rush orders they have been compelled to secure more capital for a more complete plant in order that they may meet the demands. In their effort to accomplish this end they were advised to communicate with C. E. Orr of Bowles, which they did. Mr. Orr carpe to Oakland, and being one of the most keen sighted business men, regardless of Color in this State, immediately detected the value of the invention to the extent that he at once became financially interested. He submitted several specimens of the O. C. B. Battery Company to some of the best electrical experts of San Francisco, Oakland, Stockton and Sacramento and was thoroughly convinced that a chance to develop one of the greatest commercial industries of the age was his as well as the thinking part of the Race in this section. Since June 20th, the date of Mr Orr's identification with the company, the factory has been remodeled and new machinery has been installed to the capacity of 800 to 1000 batteries per day. And owing to the rush of orders, and the consumption of the treasury stock the Company is forced to raise the capital stock to $50,000 to further the progress of the proposition. For further information concerning the O. C. B., write C. E. Orr, 223 Blake Block, Oakland, Calif. CHANGE IN CITY CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION It will be noted that Mayor Woodman is not going to stand for the present regime in the City Civil Service Commission, and has accepted the resignation of Mrs. D. C. McCan and has appointed in her place, Mrs. E. R. Branerd. Now, all that this or any other people should ask or seek is a square deal, and with such citizenship as Mrs. Brainerd on our city commissions, they, unlike the present Civil Service Commission will cease to be a joke, and everybody will receive a square deal. Mayor Woodman is to be commended for his efforts to give to this city a broad-gauged and impartial Civil Service Commission. A TABERNACLE BUILT ON FAITH Millions have read the old story of the house that Jack built, but only few in a life time have ever had the privilege of seeing an immene Gospel Tabernacle built on faith Such a building is now in course of erection in the Crown City by the Rev. Dr. J. Gordon McPherson, the world's famed "Fighting Parson." The structure is fifty by on ehundred feet, and will seat more than a thousand persons. The Tabernacle is known as "Christ's Temple, the Great Church of Humanity," and will have many institutional features that will reach The California Eagle thousands of the unchurched and strangers coming to Southern California. The Tabernacle will be dedicated to the glory of God and the service of humanity on the third Sunday, December 17th, at 2:30 o'clock, with imposing religious ceremonies, many prominent religious, civic, and industrial workers will take part in the dedicatory services. The famous Harris-Bilbrew Jubilee Singers will take part in the musical program along with choirs from Los Angeles and nearby towns, bringing together some of the best vocalists of both races on the Pacific Slop. Monday evening the first annual religious Parliament of Races will open for ten days. Each eveing addresses will be delivered by some of the foremost men and women of both races upon topics of vital interest. As a large crowd is expected to attend the dedication services on Sunday the Temple workers will serve a free dinner, a real old time basket dinner from noon to 2 o'clock, all persons planning to attend the dedication on third Sunday should take the Pasadena short line and get off at Raymond and East Bellevue and walk half block north on Raymond to Tabernacle ground and see the wonderful tabernacle that was built on faith. EXCLUSIVE NEGRO TOWN THREATENED WITH DEPOPULATION Aniston, Ala.-Hobson City, one of the few negro towns in the United States, is threatened with depopulation on account of immigration of so many of its citizens to Northern states. During the past few weeks agents for industrial concerns in West Virginia and Pennsylvania have been in Hobson City making tempting offers to the Negroes to go north. It is understood in some cases railroad transportation has been furnished and the further inducement of permanent wages and steady work has been offered. A number of Negroes have also left the pipe shops in hits city to go north, but those who went to Pittsburgh have written to their former employers asking for their old jobs and seeking assistance to get back home. The general belief prevails that the thousands of Negroes who have gone north in answer to the glittering inducements held out by the labor agents, were to be used by the Republicans on election day. NEGRO ASKS $50,000 Charges Was Forced By Whites to Leave Lonoke County Little Rock, Ark. — The $50,000 damage suit instituted by J. H. Foy, a Negro, against citizens of Lonoke, was begun before Judge Trieber in federal court here. Foy is now a resident of Oklahoma. He charges that he had property in Lonoke County and had to leave it because of the threats made by the white neighbors. On July 15, 1915, he was taken from the jail by a force of masked men, who tied his hands and feet, threw him on the ground and severally beat and kicked him, then removed his clothing and whipped him across the naked body with a strap in which tacks had been driven, his suit charges. He says he was given terrible treatment until forced to promise that he would leave the neighborhood. The defendants are S. D.

Low, nephew of the late Seth Low, and general efficiency expert, congratulates the Colored Men's Efficiency Bureau and commends Oeise Bibb Thompson's scholarly address. In a letter to Mr. L. V. Stewart, president of the Colored Men's Efficiency Bureau, Mr. A. E. Low, manager of the Fair Bargain Store, expresses his appreciation of the meeting held 1920 JOHN H. HARRIS REV. CHESTER H.

He was a staunch Race man, and his shoulder to the wheel for Race progress has been seriously missed. at Wesley Chapel last Sunday afternoon, at which he was a speaker, and stated among other things that he enjoyed the meeting and believes that if the members of the bureau will try to live up to their constitution they can and will accomplish great results in a very short time. "Also," he adds, "I want to particularly endorse the most scholarly address of Mrs. Thompson. I do not know whether a suggestion from me is opportune, but if so I believe that you might do considerable good by having her talk printed and distributed to all of your members.

It is perhaps unnecessary to inform this audience that the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science and the author of its textbook was a woman—gentle woman, Mary Baker Edy. You may know too that for years she stood alone—on one woman against the whole world—opposed and assailed b At the meeting of the Forum, which convened just after the Wesley Chapel meeting, both Mr. Low's and Mrs. Thompson's addresses were frequently referred to as most timely and helpful. Noah D. Thompson, who works on the editorial staff of the Evening Express and Morning Tribune, had the honor of presenting Mr. Low to the large audience Sunday afternoon. TALKS ON EFFICIENCY Wesley Chapel Is Crowded to Hear Woman Speaker "Efficiency is not gained by fits and starts, but by following certain requisites which are indispensable, the first being honesty," said Eloise Bibb Thompson, the principal speaker at the semi-annual meeting of the Colored Men's Efficiency Bureau of Los Angeles City and County yesterday afternoon. Wesley Chapel, at Eighth and Julian streets, was crowded to the doors with members of the organization and their friends to hear Mrs. Thompson. She is an eloquent speaker and a special contributor to magazines and newspapers. Her talk was chiefly on the progress of efficient Negroes in the United States and abroad. A. E. Low, nephew of the late Seth Low, of New York, general efficiency expert who s at present organizing the forces to be employed at the new Fair Bargain store, which is soon to be opened in the old Robinson building, also addressed the assemblage. Special music formed a pleasing feature of yesterday's meeting. — L. A. Tribune g. minister of the Baptist faith of one year ago today, Dec. 8th, and his shoulder to the wheel usly missed. EXTRACT FROM LECTURE DELIVERED AT SHRINE AUDITORIUM. Paul H. Schrader introduced the speaker, Mr. Rathvon. It is perhaps unnecessary to inform this audience that the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science and the author of its textbook was a woman—a gentle woman, Mary Baker Eddy. You may know too that for years she stood alone—one lone woman against the whole world—opposed and assailed by the world of theology, of medicine, of established usage, of tradition, of conservatism; opposed by the world of intellect and of ignorance, of common sense and uncommon sense, of bigotry and cruelty, of ridicule and falsity; and ever pursued by the human and inhuman hatred of truth. All these forces were for years arrayed against this one woman and the message God had placed in her hands to deliver to humanity. But she was never daunted or dismayed by anything the world, the flesh, or evil might try to do to her, for she never let go of the hand of God. Never in modern times has a spiritually-minded woman been so relentlessly abused without cause, and her message so maligned and misrepresented from pulpit, press and platform. eYt, in all the years of persecution which Mrs. Eddy suffered, not one word of retaliation or resentment dropped from her tongue or pen. She never returned evil for evil. And I assert this, not as a matter of hearsay or opinion, but from personal knowl- ```markdown ``` MRS. NOAH D. THOMPSON Who made notable address on "Efficiency." Sunday. edge gained from several years of daily association with Mrs Eddy, while I was a member of her own household. Those who do not understand sometimes declare that Christian Scientists unduly exalt and even deify Mrs. Eddy's memory. It is a mistake, my friends; we do not. But there are multitudes of people who are profoundly grateful to her, and do you wonder why? Let me tell you. Suppose that at one time in your life at the close of a dismal winter's day you were going along a crowded street in a strange city, a stranger in a foreign land, and without your knowing it, you dropped your pocketbook containing every dollar you had in the world. On the other side of the street a sweet-faced elderly woman saw you drop your purse and without a thought for her comfort or safety, she crossed amid the mud and slush and rushing traffic and picked up your purse and followed you. Then just as you had discovered your loss and were shaken with dread and apprehension for the future, she handed it to you with a smile that changed your gloom into joy. Would you not be grateful to that woman? But suppose that instead of merely money that you had lost, instead of merely losing your last dollar in a strange land, suppose that in course of your life you had lost those things which money cannot buy. Suppose you had lost your health, your happiness, your piece of mind, your self-respect, your usefulness, your ability, your friends, your faith in your fellow man; aye, suppose that you had even lost your faith in God, and this same gentlewoman had been the means of restoring them all to you, would you not be grateful to her and thankful to God, who sent her to you? The Right Idea About It May I ask you, then, during the time we are together today, to consider with an open mind some of the teachings of Christian Science about God, that you may try them out in your own experience for the overcoming of those things which make up the sum of human misery. We will ask you while here not to think of God as one who is afar off, and who has nothing more in common with you than you have with the worm that crosses your path of a summer's morning. We will ask you not to think of THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 43 to the Line Him as a God who resembles a glorified man; as a God who aff flicts, as a God of wrath and vengeance and fire and flood and tempest. We will, instead, ask you to consider God as Christian Science shows Him to be, not afar off, but at hand, always and everywhere; not indifferent to you and your welfare, but sympathetically interested, as you are interested in your own children; the God whose power is infinite throughout the universe, yet who never uses it to force you to anything; whose infinite goodness is ever available by you, whose infinite intelligence, like an open book, is always ready for you to use. I will ask you forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases, yet who never forces forgiveness upon you or compels you to turn to Him to be healed, if in your ignorance or waywardness you would rather rely upon man-made cures or methods. All people who would be regarded as Christian believe in God, yet how few understand Him. The textbook of Christian Science (p. 203 declares truly that "if God were understood instead of being merely believed, this understanding would establish health." Does this seem like an extravagant statement? Compare it then with the words of Jesus on the same subject where in John XVII. 3 we are told that to know God "is life eternal." Can you conceive of a vital fact put in stronger words? When the despondent invalid recognizes that God never made a man sick or a sick man; that on the contrary He has given to man unbroken health; that sickness is an imposition of mortal mind and is illegitimate, abnormal, unrighteous, without divine law, recognition, or sanction, he is then ready to turn to divine Mind, God Himself, "who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases." Jesus by precept and example was continually lifting men's thoughts above their inherited and impedimentive beliefs about God as a manlike being with form and body, subject to wrath, favoritism, changeableness and other human characteristics. Instead, he revealed God to be infinite good, the same yesterday, today and forever, and in no way resembling erring, finite man.—(From the "Scrap Book," by J. D. Reynolds. What the Churches are Doing PAGE TWO FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH NOTES Corner 8th and Towne Ave. Rev. J. Logan Craw, Pastor Two splendid services were enjoyed by all in attendance at First church Sunday. A representative number of loyal members communed despite the inclement weather. At the morning services the little Marguerite and William Shores were christened. John Bradford was happily converted at Thanksgiving class night service and welcomed into the church. Rally Day is Sunday when the first skirmish will take place between the opposing factions of "The War of the Roses." Captains Lucky and Craw with their stalwart soldiers will sacrifice in reasonable service, with telling effect to carry off the laurels in this eventful clash. Rain or no rain the true hearted men and women of the church will be at their post of duty to carry their level best in this effort to carry high the Out of Depth Deployment Man will wear warfare with $5.00 shots. Others charge with more than that amount, while everyone will "fire" a substantial volley into the ranks before the day is done. At night each one will be given due credit in public statement for their noble part played. The pastor will preach at both services and have charge of the volunteer offerings. Everybody is welcome to the First Skirmish Rally services, Sunday, December 10. Annual election of trustees on Thursday night, Dec. 14. Let every member be present to enjoy the class meeting and take part in the election. The Ladies' Aid Society is making great progress in the agathering of members. The next meeting will be Tuesday evening, 8 o'clock, at the church. LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGRE GATIONAL CHURCH 34th St. and Central Ave. Not to be baffled by the rain a representative audience greeted us at the morning service on last Sunday. The pastor occupied the pulpit, speaking on "Living Epistles." At the evening service Dr. F. S. Brewer, Dean of Talladega, Ala. Theological school was present and enthused the large audience that was out to hear him. After bringing greetings and telling of the work at Talladega, he gave a wonderful message on "The Need of a Vision." All present were greatly benefited by this good message. On Saturday night the pastor was surprised beyond expression when, on answering a call at the door, found himself surrounded by a large crowd of members and friends of the church who had come through the shower of rain to bring a "shower" of good things and good cheer. This "shower" consisted of household goods, food and wearing apparel. After serving refreshments all returned to their places, having spent a very pleasant evening. All the regular services next Sunday. Subject for the morning, "Christian Responsibility." Evening, "The Greatest Thing in the World." A cordial welcome to all. WESLEY M. E. CHURCH NOTES New Pastor Here Christmas Sunday The Official Board of the church has received a communication from Dr. A. P. Shaw which authorizes them to state that he will reach Los Angeles by Dec. 24th, Christmas Sunday. This is, we are sure, good news to the membership of Vesley, which he has held the last past three months, yet it has for the most part remained loyal and faithful to every interest of the church. Wesley's membership feels under lasting obligations to the ministry of the city for the services rendered the church during this long period without a pastor. Several of them left their morning services to serve our people. May the good Lord bless and prosper each of them in their fields. There were others who had previous engagements and could not accept. We are grateful to them for their willingness. Next Sunday morning, December 10, the pulpit will be filled by a very prominent city pastor. We withhold his name for the reason that he wishes for the gentleman who fills his pulpit the full attendance of his membership. In the evening the Brotherhood under Brother Hugh E. Macbeth will have charge of the services. Each member is asked to bring five other men. Sunday, Dec. 17, Great Day Rev. N. P. Greggs, pastor of the Independent Church, will fill the pulpit Sunday, December 17. He and his official board board have just a very generous and interesting thing by unanimously agreeing that the Independent congregation will, following the close of Sunday school, come in a body to Wesley and worship with us. FAREWELL RECEPTION AND RALLY TO REV. H. L. MCKIN- NEY, MASON CHAPEL, NEXT SUNDAY AFTERNOON AT 3 P. M. On Sunday afternoon at -3 p.m. December 10th, the officers and members of Mason Chapel M. E. church and pastors and various congregations of the city, will take a part in a farewell testimonial service and rally, in honor of Rev. H. L. Mc. Kinney. When these two people of God came to this church, they found the membership scattered and the various auxiliaries of the church practically dead. These dismal conditions might have discouraged the strongest, but these two people with that light in their faces which has never left them, set about their work confident of victory. In a remarkably short time the Sunday school, Edworth League, La- dies Aid Society and Boards were rejuvenated. Enthusiasm was injected in the membership and the whole church responding to the magic touch of their hands, was given a new lease of life. After two years of faithful and arduous service to Mason's Chapel, he resigns to begin work in a larger field to which he has recently been called. To those who have had the privilege of contact with Dr. McKinney and his accomplished wife, this announcement will occasion a step and genuine regret. Both Bro. McKinney and his wife are of that rare type whose gentle manners and kindly dispositions, coupled with a genuine Christian culture, grip you and invariably inspire you to nobler and better living. We extend all a cordial invitation to be present at the final services Sunday afternoon, Dec. 10th, at 3 p.m. We all, profoundly regret to lose Dr. McKinney, yet we are glad to see him go to larger fields where his talents will have wider range and he can be of larger service. SECOND A. M. E. CHURCH Rev. E. R. Johnson, Pastor The services were well attended Sunday and much interest manifested. Bros. Wm. Gray and Ira Mill were read into the museum herding. The pasture appointed the following brothers to the Steward's Board: Milton Hicks, Wm. Gray, and Ira Mill. The Quilt Contest last week was spirited and exciting. Mrs. M. Druish was the victor, bringing in $16.05. The total amount realized on the quilt was $24.35. Next Sunday is Quarterly Meeting. Rev. J. H. Wilson will be with us at night. Our rally netted us $70.00, hence we will be able to report over $150- 000 raised this quarter, despite the high cost of living. SACRED CONCERT AT THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH Last Sunday at the Christian church Miss Bertha Miller, organist, arranged an appropriate concert for the Sunday evening services and it was carried out perfectly. Besides numbers rendered by the choir, the following were announced : "The Holy City," by Messrs. Coleman and Miller; "The Miser Punished," by Mrs. Lees; vocal solo, Miss Elnora Lambert; piano solo, Naomi Turnage; instrumental duet, Thelm and Odessa Rose; a sermonette, "More Than These," Miss Susie J. Lynch; song, "A Perfect Day," Mr. Robert Keith. Each played his part well and the program as a whole was very good. The pastor, Rev. Lautche, preached as usual in the morning. Though the weather was inclement a goodly number was out to hear him. FIRST A. M. E. ZION CHURCH D. i. b. P. C. Rev. B. C. Robeson, A.M., S.T.B. Pastor. Last Sunday though showery and slightly disagreeable, the members turned out in goodly numbers, because it was rally day, not a rally day to pay off a big debt, but a rally to settle up one of their small debts for recent repairs. Their pledges were nobly fulfilled as Zionites are proverbially known to be true to their trust, then too, under the leadership of their capable and inspired pastor, they receive so much encouragement that it is impossible to do anything other than great things. The heating system has been changed, no longer icy pews and bleak aisles. Now on the rainiest and bitterest day you may sit and feast on the sermon and suffer not in the least from the cold. Zion is at last awakening and a new zeal manifest in this temple. The public is aware of this fact evidently, as shown by the ever increasing number of strangers and other visiting church coming into its own. There is an members at our regular Sunday morning service. To all, be not the least danger, you are welcome. Diligent and of course we will be with us every Sunday. We will serve lunch in the basement. Don't cook. Come with us and have dinner after service. The pastor's text at 11 a.m. will be, "Progress the Demand of the Hour." At 8 p.m., "Are You too Proud to Fight?" You will be both spiritually and mentally benefited. Referring to the pastor's sermon at Thanksgiving service held at the Second Baptist Church, one able critic of another denomination said, "It was way above the average." This is saying much in Los Angeles. Come out and be convinced. Sunday school at 9:45 a.m. You and your children come on time. Rev. N. P. Greggs of the Independent Church will preach for us at 3 p.m. The famed choir will sing. MOUNT ZION BAPTIST Rev. F. H. Davis will preach Sunday morning, subject, "Christian Watchfulness." A big "High Cost of Living" meeting will be held on third Sunday afternoon. Some of the prominent people of Los Angeles will take part. Everybody will be welcome. A great Emancipation Proclamation celebration will be held at the church on Monday evening, Jan. 1st. Prof. C. A. Biggers will be in charge. Rev. Archie Williams, the assistant pastor, will preach Sunday evening. PHILLIPS CHAPEL C. M. E. CHURCH The services at this church were up to the usual high standard on the Sabbath and a very good congregation was out to greet the pastor, who preached at both the morning and evening services. The pastor began a series of sermons on the subject, "The False and the True." The two sermons on this subject were listened to with a great deal of interest by the congregation and at the close of the services a good number spoke of how helpful the discourses had been to them.

The Thanksgiving dinner served by the ladies was a decided success and quite a neat sum was added to the funds of both the boards. them THE PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST Rev. N. P. Gregs, Pastor Although the weather on last Sunday was very inclement, a good representation of the loyal members and friends gathered at the services of the People's Independent Church and experienced a glorious time. The pastor preached two wonderfully inspiring sermons on the subject, "The Apostle John on the Isle of Patmos." On next Sunday, Dec. 10, baptismal and consecration services will be held. All are made welcome at the services of this church.

Among other numbers are papers by Dr. Frank Gordon and John King and a vocal solo by Miss Evelyn Turner. Dr. Leonard Stovall will have charge of the meeting. THE DOUGLAS TEMPLE They say, give me that old-time singing. Well, it was old-time singing, but with so much melody and harmony that the congregation was spellbound.

Vaughn; symacitizing by Mrs. Snyder; selection by the choir; messages by Mrs. E. Green; sermon by Dr. George Shields; crossing prayer.

This same recount is more apt to increase Governor Elect Campbell's majority than to reduce it. The people have soured on Hunt and everybody; seems wise to this fact except the Governor himself. ! i RIGHT IN LINE Regarding the fling of the New Age questioning the prem- ises and propriety of the Methodist ministers in iorming an alliance of their own, we certainly can see no merit in its crit- icism, on the contrary we think they, the Methodist ministers, are right in line with real progress. One of the greatest draw- backs to racial progress ‘s lack oi organization, and then who is it that would question the right of these ministers of the Methodist faith to organize their own alliance to get to- gether on their very own problems: get their own house in order and become better qualified to be of service in their Interdenominational Allianc.e To cope with the problems which confront us each and every denomination has its part to play and in their own way working for the same goal, they would seriously err should they neglect as an organization of their kith and kin to do their part for a common cause along with the other church organizations. Therefore The Eagle com- mends the ministers of this faith for their organization and hope as a result of the same that it will be helpful not alone for that faith but for the entire citizenship and community as well. THE SCHOOL QUESTION Those who are in touch with matters locally relating to our public schools, know that the reason given ior some of the dis- criminations is that some of the Colored children are rude, rough and boisterous. The Eagle would suggest, however, that there should be no line of demarcation between an unruly rough and boisterous Colored or white child. If such should be the case with either. they should be punished and those who are not of this ilk and kind should not-be humiliated on account of the same. We understand that conditions are improving and that no general discrimination is to be put in vogue. The London dispatches say the Roumanians made a mas- terly retreat and that the evacuation of Bucharest was a stellar piece of strategy. in that it leit the population on the hands of their foes to feed. The Eagle can find real solace now for our defeat f November. It was indeed a brilliant strategic move to let the Democratic party solve the problems of this country for the next four years. ONE FRIEND AT COURT Noah D. Thompson will always be appreciated by the Race journals for the reason that he never hesitates to speak a good word jor them, and can always be found boosting for their success. His remarks at the efficiency meeting last Sunday struck a responsive chord. and if we. ourselves, will only live ‘up to the proposition our Colored journals will thrive and grow like the proverbial green bay tree. — NOT WITHOUT REASON It is contended—not without some show of reason—that by the result of the late election the voters of the United States have indorsed for the next two years at least: 1. Legislation by intimidation and surrender to the labor unions. 2. Continued abandonment of the policy of protection to American industries. 3. Peace at the price of submission without other than wordy protest to Mexican invasion, British censorship of our smails and destruction by German submarines of American life and property. Maybe after two years more of this sort of thing the people all change their minds. In the meantime the people can quote pngiellow = Pe ee “Oh, Year not in a world like this, And thou shalt know ere long, Know how sublime a thing it is ‘To suffer and be strong.” Or they can say with Shakespeare: “And if the king like not the comedy, ? - Why then belike he likes it not.” The following article appeared im last’ Sunday’s Times We highly appreciate. what the Times has to Say con- cerning Booker Washington, and the others among us who are directing their efforts along the upward trend, but as tq Mr. J. Goodman Braye, we jee! that this gentleman should at feast come before the Negro public of this section with his propa- ganda if he hopes to even have Negro patronage for his great industrial enterprise aiter it shall have been completed. If Mr. Braye is on the Square we are eager to get behind him, but we have already bad too many industrial ~Judases,” several 1 might mention, but even mention would be tinged with unpleasant thought. We’ have inquired of most of te clergy and citizenry of this community, and they seem to have littie or no knowledge of Mr. Braye other than his connection with a few land projects racial in mame, that have come and gone like a passing gust of wind. Now the position that we maintain is, we desire to ascer- tain irom Braye as to whether or not he has inquired into the real need of such’ an industrial institution in this section irom the people for whom he proposes to build it, or is it a case of leading a horse to ssater of sending a fool to college? The people of the United States owe a heavy debt to those of aAfrican descent living im this country. The iorefathers of these Africans .were nearly all kidnaped,‘ wrenched away from their old homes and ali their old associations, and brought here as slaves by our joreiathers. As greed lies at the basis oi most wars, so it was in our Civil War Lincoln's statement: “This country cannot be part siavé and part free, but must be ail slave or all free,” is the keynote oi that gigantic struggie. In freeing the negroes of the South, we were far from dis- charging all our debt to that race. They came out of slavery ignorant and degraded, as slave races always are. We owe it to them and:-to ourselves to give them an uplifting hand to elevate them from their ignorance and degradation. When the Eng- lish abolitionists raised the slogan, “He is a man and a broth- ¢r,” they put the matter on the right basis. We gave the ne- gro not pnly freedom but the elective franchise. And here arises the ‘American slogan, “Liberty has for its price eternal watchiulngss.” Now watch‘ulness and liberty can never go together Withouth high intelligence. Booker T. Washington was the real apostle to the Ameri- can negro. ‘ Of African blood himself, he did a noble work ior his race. The work of this negro educator has been recognized by every American statesman of any standing in the last quar- ter of a century. With these facts in view, we hil with delight a movement to establish a negro industrial schohol in California modeled after the Booker T. Washington school in Alabama. This work is being undertaken by a negro, too, J. Goodman Braye. He represents a'society to build a school aiter the Booker T. \Wash- ington model. H eplaces the number of negroes in Los An- geles at 35)Q00. 3 He hag.a form of subscription toward raising the necessary funds for the establishment of this school. With the best of tes- timonials irom prominent citizens, his honesty is further evi- denced by the fact that the subscriptions are to be paid into a bank of the subscriber's choosing, and not a cent will be called for until $£00,000 is secured in bona fide subscriptions within one year frpm date. ‘Basket Grocery Store " 1335 EAST TWELFTH ST.

Loving of East 12th street, this week Major Loving and his bride are spending one part of a most enjoyable honeymoon Major Loving bears the distinction of one of the most honored retired U. S. Army men. With the original bridal party were Dr. Harry J. Williams of Washington, D. C., and Miss Julia Loving of New York. Dr. Williams has returned East, but Miss Loving is still with the party in this city. At the regular monthly meeting of the Second Baptist Church, held last Monday evening, it was voted and ordered that the right hand of fellowship be withdrawn from P. J. Anderson. This mandate excommunicates Mr. Anderson from communion with his brethren, and severs his social and spiritual connection with his church. When P. J. Anderson does a sufficient amount of pennance and seeks abolition from his sin, and the forgiveness of his fellowmen, then, and not until then, the church will, on his solicitation, reinstate him to full membership. Mme. Ella J. Hughley, the noted soprano, was tendered a brilliant reception on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of her marriage at her residence, 1325 Central avenue, Dec. 3. The tables were beautifully decorated with flowers and fancy napkins. There were five courses served and there were more than five who partook of the humpous repast. Among the many presents that Mme. Hughley received the one she prized the most was the beautiful cut glass flower basket presented by her husband. It was a very, very brilliant reception, indeed. ALUMNI ASSOCIATION TO RE VISE MEMBERSHIP RE QUIREMENTS SUNDAY A most important meeting of the Southern California Alumni Association will be held at Wesley Chapel Sunday at 4 o'clock.

KANSAS-MISSOURI CLUB MET TUESDAY EVENING The far-famed Kansas-Missouri Club met Tuesday evening at the residence of Mrs. Dora Gamble, 814% Central avenue, where it was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Gamble and Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Bass. Despite the threatening weather the house was filled with members and friends and a very enthusiastic gathering it proved to be. The club is going forth with a new zeal, such as the former residents of the States of Kansas and Missouri are wont to do. After the business of the evening had been contracted, a splendid program was presented, in which the participants all acquired themselves with high credit. Miss Young as a vocalist was superb; Mr. J. R. Manning with his basso solo was a revelation. Little Miss Catherine Bass recited to the edification of all. After a sumptuous repast the club voted a special vote of thanks. The host and hostesses all responded briefly and the club adjourned by saying it was hell to be here. TURNED OUT OF CHURCH THE HIAWATHA CHORUS ABOUT TO CHANGE ITS NAME At a meeting of the Executive Board of the Allen Allensworth Club this week it was suggested that the great Hiawatha Chorus that presented the Wedding Feast of Hiawatha at Trinity Auditorium last September, be changed into a permanent organization, and be known as the Coleridge Taylor Choral Society.

LAWS, Business Manager The Thanksgiving dance given by the Black and Tan Orchestra last Thanksgiving evening was indeed an immense success. A very large number were present and in spite of being weighted down with Thanksgiving turkey everyone seemed to enjoy dancing to the excellent music of the Black and Tan. But there are a few things we can't just understand—why certain three young ladies sat on the table almost the entire evening. Maybe they were watching the fashion show or learning some new steps. How should we know. We are also in doubt why Mr. Al Ramsey insisted on having Mrs. E—teach him the one-step. We have understood in the past that he was the original "one-steppist." Oh! How do they do it? Mr. Stevens, as usual, was out with bells. Just why did Mr. Gbs play wallflower on this particular night! what's the matter, feet hurt? Someone has said: It was worth the price of admission to lose To hear Mr. B, Ferris play those weary Blues: —"Don't Fool Me." Mr. Moore sure did put on that floor manager "stuff." Vernon Castle has offered him $5000 to tell him his secret. Mr. Kennedy, the "star" of the "Lone Star" State, since Mr. Bob Susky arrived is losing some of his popularity. Mr. Susky plans on taking Spanish for future purposes. Miss Elmore, on the request of Mrs. Stansel, refused to dance with a certain party. She should have let her dance with him, he was a stranger. She wouldn't have been any more embarrassed than when a mouse came between her and Mr. "Blackie" Williams. The latest was that "Painless" had a pain. Mr. Monteyhouse, the "speed" bug, seems to have the greatest respect for Keno. Seldom heard of. seldom seen; a fair lady, all in green. "Speed" Brooks, from Los Angeles, was out, but he could buy his suits a little larger. If you are hungry and broke do not pass 746 Third street, where the sign on the door says "Walk In." as a magnet from those delicious dinners that Mrs. De Tracey cooks will stop a camel on the Sahara desert the second day out. "Yum yum" is the pass word as you pass. An invitation to Mr. Jackson: In you love your wife and flowers at home, you may do the same here, for I want you to feel perfectly at home while stopping—? Coronado headed the list of elites last Thursday evening. The Silver Strand seemed to have been deserted until the hour of 12. Mrs. G. W. Thompson was out and seemingly enjoyed herself. Miss Edith Thompson seems to have joined the Heartbreakers' Club. Well, it isn't her fault, it is her good looks that tease them so. During this conversation a young man says, if you want to see the good-looking "browns" you should go to L. A.-but he was told the buds of San Diego can hold their own. Speaking further, out of a town of 100,000 I ask him, why should he oppose her beauty. Mrs. Carter should come early and stay to accommodate her many dancing friends. Anyway, she is dearly loved by someone, and she knows him not. Mr. and Mrs. Smith, of East San Diego, came early and left early from the dance, to the sorrow of Mr. Leon. One cannot tell that Mr. and Mrs. Stevens are married when they are out enjoying themselves. Mrs. McDonald was out looking like a little wax doll and one of those dreamy waltzes with her makes you want to be the baby. Mrs. Hedrick certainly was a loving picture to lay your eyes upon. It seems as if the nature mole must have been existing near Thanksgiving. Mrs. Melvin White is out looking the picture of health, while "Papa" Melvin stayed home walking the floor with his big baby boy. Mrs. Nicholson certainly did look teasing at the dance, and what's more, she knew it. Mrs. M. T. Laws is very ill at this writing, but is expected to be up and around again soon. Mrs. Havis is on the sick list this week. Mrs. Norwood is reported very ill, but we hope she will be up and around again soon. Mr. Berdie Wilson, of San Bernardino, is visiting in the city. Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Meade, of Oakland, spent ten days of their honeymoon in San Diego, guests of Mrs. A. V. Burton, Mrs. Meade's sister. Mr. and Mrs. G. S. Belt, of 30th street, entertained, at a Thanksgiving dinner, Thursday, Mr. and Mrs. S. Freeman, Rev. C. Williams and wife, and Mr. C. Reed. The table was laden with everything imaginable, and who could refrain from being thankful! Mrs. Ethel Hornsby was the lucky one to find the bug under the chip, at the Carnation Club entertainment, Thursday night. She received as a prize a large box of chocolates. Mr. Synagogue is in town again, so the girls on Logan Heights are all smiles again. We hope he will stay this time. ISSUES CHALLENGE The decision rendered at the Literary Society last meeting, viz. "Women shall not vote," has been challenged by the Eagle Staff of San Diego, Messrs. Laws, Brooks, and Mrs. C. E. Norwood. Mr. W. R. Brown, Mrs. Lofton, Mrs. Reed returned home Sunday morning. They visited all points of interest while here. LITERARY SOCIETY HAS INTERESTING DEBATE "Women shall not vote" was the decision rendered by the Supreme Bench of Mt. Zion Baptist Carnation Club, Tuesday evening. Miss Sama Mason and Miss Emma Mulholland and Mr. Reed proved themselves the orators of the day, while Miss Anna Mulholland, Miss Eyonice Mulholland, Mr. Synagogue deserve much credit for the noble fight they made for the women. The pastor was much pleased to know that he had such fine material within his reach. The judges were Mrs. Mulholland, Mrs. Hershey, Mrs. Wilkins, and Mr. Dodge, who, against their own opinions, rendered a decision in accordance with points, which resulted in favor of the negative. These debates will be held each month on the second Tuesday at Mt Zion Baptist Church. Come out and witness the ability of your boys and girls. Our church is on Greeley avenue. No. 3045, Logan Heights, San Diego. We must first say that Rev. C. Williams, pastor of the Mt. Zion Baptist Church, was delegated to the Executive Board of the Western Baptist Association by the church, and was given his round-trip ticket and spending money. He went up on the train, but on returning he thought it would be a little change, so he decided to come back with his son-in-law, daughter and his wife in the automobile. So on leaving Los Angeles Tuesday morning about 11 o'clock, everything seemed to be all O. K., but they had traveled about one-third of the way, one of the back tires came off, the machine commenced to bang-a-de-bang, and when they were just about half way, one of the front tires blew up, and of course the noise was made double. They were then among high mountains and from the yells of the coyotes and the bang-a-de-bang and bump of the automobile, anyone in the distance would surely have declared that war was on, and alas! when they had journeyed a few miles farther, the lights went out, a final signal that the gasoline was also out, and the machine came to a standstill in the road. It was now the wee-wee hours of the morning, between 2 and 3 o'clock, and all of the occupants of the machine had get out and push, and roll the old machine. They all ran as much as they could to keep from freezing to death. Mrs. C. Williams says that she had been suffering with rheumatism, but ran so hard to keep up that she thinks she is entirely curved of it now. Mrs. I. Haywood ran along in front, trying to guide the way by her skirts, as it was so dark and no lights to be seen. They walked and ran, and walked and ran, until Mrs. Williams was about to give out, so they had her get in the machine, while the rest pulled and pushed it. So Mrs. Williams, feeling ashamed of having them work so hard at the load they were trying to carry, resumed the walk. Leaving the machine in the road, they walked into La Jolla, which was about 8 o'clock in the morning. Rev. Williams, in order to keep up the spirits of the crowd, began to sing to the old familiar tune, "Till never turn back no more," but he said: "Till never come this way no more." At La Jolla Mrs. Haywood went to the first telephone she could find and called up Mrs. C. E. Norwood, of San Diego, to find out how to reach Mr. and Mrs. Hayden, who are the owners of a Ford, to come out to La Jolla and bring the crowd in home. Mr. and Mrs. Hayden responded to the emergency call, but were a few minutes too late, as they were all cold and hungry, so they took the train as it came La Jolla and came into San Diego, looking at each other, and each one realizing how bad they looked, they all decided to either travel on rail or by boat or in a Ford. Never again in that automobile. Mr. Chas. Reed was also in the crowd. LOS ANGELES NEWS Look out for Mrs. F. F. Moten and her talented daughter in concert at Neighborhood Hall, December 15th.

Owing to the size of the Eagle and the large number that we publish, we are compelled to have our work done on one of the largest and speediest presses in this great city, but for all that the Christmas Eagle will be a thing of beauty and joy forever. Mr. John C. Wood, better known as Professor, the noted printer, who was so many years with the New Age, is now with the California Eagle, where he is willing to meet his friends who have printing of any kind to be figured on, as to prices, he is the lowest of the low. So don't fall to give him a call. 814 Central avenue. NOVEL AFFAIR The West Side Tennis Club entertained Thanksgiving evening with a dance. The "Bells" of the city were out in gala attire, and a most enjoyable evening was spent, and prizes were awarded to Miss Fern Caldwell—a silver medal "Girl's Fingles," and a loving cup between Messrs. Philip Davis and Clarence Brooks. The West Side Club gave a dance last Friday evening and some of the buds of this season pronounced it a most enjoyable affair. This club is giving very nice affairs and catering to nothing but standard bearers of good morals among our young people. ROBINSON'S NOVELTY STORE A neat little store under the management of Mrs. T.

FUNERAL OF MISS BRIGHT On last Monday afternoon, at the Christian Church, 14th and Birch streets, a most beautiful eulogy was solemnized over the remains of Miss Gertrude Bright, who died at her home on Newton street, Nov. 27, 1916. Revs. Latouche and Greens had charge of the services and the latter most beautifully portrayed the sweet life and character of the deceased and those who heard him received a wonderful lesson how to live upright. His discourse was not for the dead. No, for the dead need no advice. It was for the living, and feeling more buoyant and that there was something still in life left to live for. Messrs. Turnage, Booth, and Coleman acted as pall-bearers and Misses Bertha Miller, Rose Rickman, Corsella Leggett, Susie Lynch, Carrie Brown, and Ethel Washington were honorary pall-bearers. Interment was in Evergreen cemetery. Those who came with heads bowed, down in grief and sore at heart, left a grand message it was indeed.

THE NATIONAL LEAGUE ON URBAN CONDITIONS AMONG NEGROES Dear Editor: We write this letter for publication in your next issue because we feel that it touches upon a situation of vital importance to every member of the Race. Negroes in large numbers are leaving the South for the North. Many are securing good positions. Those that are sober and responsible and know how to give an honest day's toil are holding their positions. The indolent, inefficient men, however, are soon discharged, become a burden to the Northern communities and bring reproach and humiliation to thrifty Colored citizens in communities where white people have not hitherto considered Negroes undesirables. The National League on Urban Conditions among Negroes urges the right-thinking Negroes of the South and everyhewere to discourage the wholesale migration of shiftless people between any two points, be they North or South. The League also warns Negroes against fraudulent agents who are collecting employment efs and who disappear soon afterwards. Negro labor is in demand. Use that fact to improve the efficiency of that labor by demanding: First, better wages where the wages of Colored men are below the current wage; second, better working conditions so that your health will not be impaired by the work you do; third, better living conditions both for yourself and family, so that your efficiency as a worker will not be impaired by living conditions which prevent proper rest and recreation to fit you for the day's labor, and base these demands on the facts that all these things will make your work more valuable to yourself and to your employer and make for better feeling between the Races. The National Urban League urges Negroes everywhere to take advantage of this grat industrial opportunity to work in co-operation with their local neighbors whether North or South, for the improvement of conditions which will affect both Races.

San Bernhardino cannot account for the way the Thanksgiving service, which was held at the A. M. E. Church, appeared in last week's Eagle. It is just a matter of being up to date. Our townsman, Mr. Byron T. Rowan, the proprietor of the I Street Feed Store, has spent a few days in Los Angles' and other places, laying in a few carloads of feed and coal. The popularity of the Eagle is accounted for from the fact that Mr. John Woods from Missouri is connected with it now, and if all who read the paper in San Bernhardino are subscribers then the Eagle has a very large circulation. If you are not one, subscribe now. Mr. P. C. Redd is expecting his wife and boys soon, and grandma is happy for she has a smile. Mr. and Mrs. P. P.
