The Negroes of the United States should wage a bloodless war for their rights at this crucial period of the country's history, was the opinion expressed from the pulpit by the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, pastor of the Abyssian Baptist Church, at Sunday's services.
The speaker referred to the demands made by the 400,000 railroad workers, who threatened to walk out at a time when America needed every car and the services of every railroad man; of the fight of the Irish for home rule during the present European conflict, and of the overthrow of the Romanoff dynasty in Russia by the common people.
Dr. Powell's views follow: "In my opinion, this is the proper time for us to make a special request for our constitutional rights as American citizens. The ten million Colored people of this country were never so badly needed as now. They are not only needed in the factories, business firms, and on the farms, to produce the necessities of life, but they are needed to help keep the Mexicans quiet, to help sweep the commerce destroying submarines of the Central Powers from the oceans, to help crush German militarism, and perhaps they will be needed sooner than some people expect to prevent the Japanese from landing on these shores to ask for a redress of their grievances which have been piling up for the past few years.
"As a Race we ought to let our government know that if it wants us to fight foreign powers we must be given some assurance first of better treatment at home. Perhaps some will say that this is an inopportune time for such talk. Some may argue that to demand our rights now, when the nation is perhaps facing the greatest crisis in its history, would show a lack of loyalty and patriotism. Those who make such arguments are not acquainted with the rise and development of Races.
All history will prove that most oppressed people have secured their rights when their oppressors were facing a crisis.
The Irish people thoroughly understand this philosophy of history and they are now making a supreme effort for home rule. This effort is being made at a time, too, when the English government needs all of its men and all of its resources to fight enemies on land and sea; and everything indicates that the Irish are going to get the independence for which they have been seeking for years, because they know how to seek at the proper time.
"Four hundred thousand railroad employees secured eight hours work with ten hours pay the other day because they threatened to walk out on a day when America needed every single car and every railroad man in the country. At a normal time the American people would not have yielded so readily to their just demand.
"For centuries the common people of Russia have been depressed and crushed by plutocracy and absolutism. In vain they have attempted to secure their liberties in times of peace, but a few days ago when surrounded by foreign foes these people rose up en masse and accomplished the complete overthrow of the colossal rotten superstructure of the Romanoff dynasty, and in twenty-four hours succeeded in abolishing all racial, social and religious distinctions. The new government has already assured the entire Russian people of their political freedom and equality before the law.
Government Has Stood by With
"Why should not the colored Americans make a bloodless demand at this crucial time for the rights we have been making futile efforts to secure for the past fifty years, instead of hurrying telegrams and special deliveries to Washington assuring the government that has persistently stood by with folded arms while we were oppressed and murdered that the ten million Negroes may be used as targets for German bullets and shells?
"It would not cost the President, governors and representatives a single cent to ask, in their speeches and messages, the American people to abolish 'Jim-Crowism, segregation, and the awful lynching institution, and give to colored men political equality; but it would mean a new birth of freedom for ten million people who have always stood ready to give their life's blood to perpetuate American institutions.
"In spite of all that the big Negroes are saying to the contrary, this is the psychological moment to say to the American white government from every pulpit and platform and through every newspaper, 'Yes, we are loyal and patriotic. Boston Commons, Bunker Hill, Gettyburg, Fort Pillar, Appomattox, San Juan Hill and Carrizal, will testify to our loyalty. While we love our flag and country, we do not believe in fighting for the protection of commerce on the high seas until the powers that be give us at least some verbal assurance that the property and lives of the members of our race are going to be protected on land from Maine to Mississippi.' Let us have the courage to saye to the white American people, 'Give us the same rights which you enjoy, and then we will fight by your side with all of our might for every international right on land and sea.'
"If this kind of talk is not loyalty, then I am disloyal; if this is not patriotism, then I am unpatriotic; if this is treason, then I am a traitor. It is not that I love Caesar less but these black Romans more, who have been true to the flag for two hundred and fifty years. It is infinitely more disgraceful and outrageous to hang and burn colored men, boys and women without a trial in the days of peace than it is for Germans in time of war to blow up ships loaded with mules and molasses."
AT MISS LILIAS G. HART'S STUDIO
Last Monday morning while on my business round I chanced to drop in Miss Hart's Studio at 1129 E. 12th St. I had but put one foot on the step when I heard a sound that was so voluptuous that I was struck by two impulses, one to stand still, and the other to rush in, but scarcely before I had time to accept the one and reject the other did the tone subside into an appealing sweetness that caught me with awe; however I crept gently to the door, and even more gently touched the bell; as by magic a smiling face appeared at the door and bade me enter. So filled was my soul with rapture that I could scarcely speak, but after two or three long breaths I managed to ask Miss Hart, "Who was the singer?" She did not answer but pointed to a sweet faced maiden who stood by her side and smilingly repeated, "This is my pupil, 15 year old Edna Heard of Santa Monica." Well, all I have to say is that Miss Heard has within her the making of a rare genius and she has a most competent teacher.
Easter comes at this season of the year when the earth is carpeted in its brightest and most beautiful shade of green and when the violet, pansy, daisy and forget-me not rival each other with their beauty and fragrance, but Easter is not symbolic alone of these but marks the day or historical period that our Lord rose out of His grave defying death, hell and the grave, and ascended into heaven. What a beautiful impression the significance of this picture would make upon our future lives if we could upon this very day, realize why Christ was and is, as did Mary and the other women, who wended their way to the tomb on that first Easter day, and because of the Christ already in their lives were able to believe instantaneously as it was revealed in their own words when they said tearfully, "Our Lord is not here but risen and gone."
A Wrong Conception
As the pages of history grow dingy with passing years and generations come and go, invention and discovery increase the wealth of the world, men's minds are reverted more and more away from godly to worldly things.
Tomorrow morning when the sun creeps out from the horizon, makes its stately bow to the glittering shores of the deep blue ocean, and dazzling mountain peaks—how many family altars will tender praise and thanksgiving to the Maker of Earth and the Ruler of Heaven?
It is right and proper that, we should bedeck our persons with beautiful garments and cast flowers about the altar, but not only should the house be beautiful, but likewise the soul that abides therein. As the poet puts it, keep the house where God must dwell beautiful entire and clean," hence if our bodies upon this Easter day are bedecked in order that we may receive the praise of men, and not as a sign or token of our appreciation for God's goodness in sparing us to see this another Easter day, we are seeking the praise of men and not the blessings of God.
ORDER OF EASTERN STAR
HOLD ANNUAL SERVICES
The Independent Church of Christ, where the service was held, was crowded, and everyone that was there benefited greatly. Dr., H. D. Prowd, pastor of the Second Baptist Church, was chosen by the Order to preach its annual sermon, and took his text from Romans 8:37, "More than conquerors." He chose for his headings, "The Significance of the Star," "Obedience," "Faithfulness," and "Loyalty." Under these heads this most eloquent scholar brought home to the hearts of those present what the Order should represent.
The other numbers, rendered by members of the Order, were timely, and very much appreciated by the audience.
"THE HEART OF A HERO"
"The Heart of a Hero," the title of the drama staged by the A. B. O. U. T. Club under the direction of Mrs. Lillian J. Craw last Tuesday evening was unanimously voted by the overflow audience at First A. M. E. Church as being one of the most brilliant affairs of the season.
The amateur artists under the direction of Mrs. Craw demonstrated excellent natural ability in the "Heart of a Hero," which was a clean but snappy love drama
THE ANGELUS THEATRE
Central Ave. is, if not the busiest, one of the busiest thoroughfares in Los Angeles where a goodly number of our people reside either as representatives of the best citizenship or as controllers, owners, and managers of some of the most alive businesses.
When the duties of a strenuous day are ended even the most austere business man appreciates a little recreation, in other words, he is willing to adhere to the little saying, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."
Some years ago in order to save these people on this end of Central Ave. time and money, the Angelus Theater was established, a suitably located, well ventilated picture house where the cleanest and best pictures are shown was established. For three years the Angelus ran on giving satisfaction to the fullest extent until some months ago when it closed down for repairs.
Now, again the Angelus throws open its doors and promises to serve an even greater purpose, and it will be to the advantage of those of us living on this end of Central Ave. to assist the efficient and genial manager, Mr. James Webb, in making the Angelus one of the very best moving picture houses in the city where our young and old may spend a pleasant evening in the very cleanest possible atmosphere.
THE KATHERINE J. BARR
EMPLOYMENT AGENCY
A Brand New Enterprise Opens
Its Doors
Colored Los Angeles, ever awake to its interest and the needs of the times, launches another enterprise to meet the demands of the incoming hordes caused by the exodus of our people from the Southland.
The people are coming in singles, coming in doubles, and coming in droves. Yes, they are coming. They are workers. They are poor. They must have work to live. It is to the credit of Black Los Angeles that it has such an agency as the one J. W. Coleman conducts, to guide and assist in placing our wage earners. It is to the credit of Black Los Angeles, also, that another agency under the management of Mrs. Katherine J. Barr, who opens up offices at 262-263 Wilson Block, 102 S. Bpring St, to assist in his large and commendable work.
Perhaps some might say that The J. W. Coleman Agency can amply take care of the work situation as far as the colored people are concerned. As enterprising and as efficient as Mr. Coleman has shown himself to be as an agent for labor, as large as hi selinetele is, and as many as he reaches, it is felt that there are enough that he does not reach or could possibly satisfy who could well support the Barn Agency and possibly even a third like enterprise. This contention is supported by the fact that the Japanese, with a city population of 7000, have 28 of such agencies. Our boast is that the Negro population runs from 15,000 to 35,000 souls. (U. S. 1910 census under 8000.)
The 7000 Japanese support 28 agencies, we ought to support two such places. Mrs. Barr is the best known of her company, and of her particularly will we discuss. She has been a resident of this city for 19 years, coming here from Chicago with her husband, Dr. E. E. Barr, who was in quest of his health. He sought in vain, as his life terminated after a short residence in our city. Mrs. Barr being a graduate
nurse, she took up nursing for a livelihood and made a splendid success, at the same time rearing an only son (Elmer) and caring for an aged mother. She is favorably and widely known in church, social, and social welfare work. Her large following of friends in both races peculiarly fits her as an intermediary—a spokesman for those who hire and those who desire to be toilers. Success is predicted for her and her company.
Pleading for a broad, fair and efficient city government and seeking to restore the confidence of the people in the management of public affairs, Thomas W. Roulo, 722 East Adams Street, well known pioneer of Los Angeles, has entered the race for the City Council, and his many friends predict for him a heavy vote at the May primaries.
FOR CITY COUNCIL
LOS ANGELES IN NEED OF
LOS ANGELES IN NEED OF A FIRST CLASS HOTEL The building formerly known as the Booker T. Washington hotel, has changed its name and management. It is now known as the "Lee and Henry Hotel" and under the efficient management of the Allen brothers promises to be the leading hotel of the Pacific Coast. Los Angeles is in need of such an enterprise and it is believed that these young men who have enjoyed the widest possible experience in this particular line will be able to maintain a large up-to-date cospomolitan hotel in this section, one that will contain all the modern equipment needed to make a first class hotel. Los Angeles is growing and it is predicted that she will soon take fifth place in the United States. In their effort to establish a first class hotel in Los Angeles, one that will take foremost place in this country and section, it is believed that these young men will have the unstinted support of all the people not only in Los Angeles, but likewise in the State of California, and traveling public.
It has always been and always will be the Eagle's object to encourage such movements, especially by young men of the race.
San Francisco, Cal. March 27, 1917.
I have just written Captain Crumbly offering to raise four companies in Northern California here to muster into the proposed regiment which you and Captain Crumbly are in the act of forming. I have also suggested to Captain Crumbly that he secure the consent of the governor to enroll names for this proposed regiment so that we can be in better shape to muster them in should action be required. I would like very much to have you come to the northern part of the State and deliver a series of addresses. I think I could arrange a satisfactory itinerary for you in case you decide to come. Hoping that you are well, I beg to remain,
Yours in patriotism,
OSCAR HUDSON.
Mr. J. L. Baker is a friend of the colored constituency, and should receive their support in the coming election.
During this particular crisis through which the country is passing, prudence suggests that the motives of each and every citizen be actuated by a spirit of patriotism rather than passion. The demands of the hour are for men, not whining and complaining, selfish individuals whose
scope of vision does not extend beyond the limits of their own conception of issues and doctrines but broad minded, big hearted, brave men who are willing to spend and be spent for the common good of all. The colored men are to be commended in their effort to encourage men of the race to enlist to help uphold the honor and dignity of the nation. In response to the appeal which appeared exclusively in the California Eagle, Attorney Hudson has taken the initiative to have the race properly represented in the northern part of the State, for which action he should receive the hearty commendation of all.
A Man of the People for the Peo-
Few men in this city are better known than Mr. Roulo. Much interest is being manifested in the outcome of his campaign. Already a strong committee of prominent people from different parts of the city has been formed to wage an enthusiastic effort in his behalf. Headquarters are being opened in different sections of the city and an aggressive speaking program will be pursued in an effort to reach the voters with his message. Mr. Roulo says he is in favor of the principle of District Representation in the City Council and proposes a fair and honest administration of equal justice to every citizen of whatever condition or race. He is in favor of taxing the entire city to pay for public improvements that are a benefit to the city as a whole, instead of placing the burden upon the property owners in any immediate vicinity.
He believes in the conservation and beautifying of Los Angeles' natural facilities and public institutions. The reduction of the burden of taxation by the lessening of bond issues and sane business management. He favors all logical measures for the upbuilding of the social, moral and economic welfare of the people. He is a friend of all the people and his record for many years past is a sufficient guarantee of his favorable attitude towards the laboring class. He has always been the friend of labor, and in the payment of wages has generally exceeded even the prevailing scale. He is opposed to child-labor and favors the establishment of a minimum wage and hours for women.
One of the biggest sensations among the Colored people of Los Angeles was caused on Thursday when Miss Carrie Davis, well known to many of the older Los Angeles folk and of one of the finest Colored families in Los Angeles, filed suit for slander against W. G. Finch, a wealthy white real estate dealer, for $5,000 plus the costs of suit.
According to the complaint, which was filed by Attorney Hugh E. Macbeth, Finch wrongfully accused the plaintiff, Miss Davis, of running a disorderly house.
This is the first time in the history of the Race when a Colored woman wrongfully accused, has had the nerve to fire back at her accusers. The outcome of the case is awaited with keen interest among the Colored citizens of Los Angeles and vicinity.
What the Churches are Doing
PAGE·TWO
Sunday was a high day at this church. Being the first Sunday in the month it was Communion day and the membership was out in large numbers. Palm Sunday was also observed and the pastor preached a special sermon on the "Triumphal Entry" to the congregation. There were two conversions at this service. The evening service was also highly spiritual and several came forward for the prayers of the church.
There will be three services at this church on the coming Sabbath, and we are expecting to have the banner day of the year so far.
There will be preaching at the morning service by the pastor. At three o'clock the children of the Sunday School will render their program and at night there will be a sacred concert rendered by the choir.
All departments of the church are alive and the church seems to have taken on new life along all lines. Come and worship with us.

Rev. B. C. Robeson, A. B., S. T. B., Pastor
After the biggest rally and the most successful revival ever held within the walls of "Zion," the grand old church has settled down to normal and the routine of the work has been picked up where it was dropped. The choir has been "habilitated," now we have engaged Prof. Bynum of the First A. M. E. to train this splendid aggregation. Prof. Wheaton retires because of impaired health. Now it will be going "bigger" than ever.
Father Mucker was out to sacrament Sunday. He officiated and partook of the same. Many of his old friends and admirers were delighted to have him with us again after his prolonged illness.
The pastor continues to impart the necessary information to sinners and backsliders. Last Sunday among our ever increasing number of worshipers were a group of white people visitors. They stayed throughout service. Our pastor's fame is reaching all classes and people.
Sunday he will address on "The Empty Tomb" at 11 a.m. services, and at 8 p.m. Easter exercises by the Sunday School. Good ventilation. Free pews. Visitors and strangers are especially welcome. Sunday school at 9:45 a.m. Classes for grown 4ps.

Sunday was truly a glorious day for Ward, every service carried with it a large degree of interest and spiritual helpfulness.
In the afternoon at our third quarterly meeting, at which the Rev. Dr. J. Logan Craw acted as presiding elder in the absence of Rev. Dr. Wilson, Dr. Craw and his good people came in goodly numbers and met the Rev. Dr. E. R. Johnson and many of his congregation of the Second church and other visitors.

Sister S. E. Mann has been on the sick list for several days, but is somewhat improved. Sister Galloway is much improved. We are pleased to state in connection with our services Sunday we had one accession in the morning.
The Etude Choral Club with a membership of 42 is rehearsing the first and third Tuesday nights for a musical on or about May 31st. The roll is still open for new members until 50 is reached.
GREAT MEETING AT ST
PAUL BAPTIST CHURCH
Rev. R. N. Holt of Tulsa, Oklahoma has arrived and St. Paul is on 'fire' Dr. Halt is preaching each evening to an appreciative audience. Dr. Holt comes to us highly recommended. Not only is he a preacher of rare ability, but a pedagogue of rare attainments. Los Angeles will do well to hear him at the St. Paul Baptist Church 545 E. 23rd St.
Next Sunday, Easter, is promised to be a high day at the Saints Home Church. A feature program is arranged for the occasion. The Sunday school and Y. P. W. W. will entertain ed to attend who will not be in attendance at their own churches. All the people afternoon and evening. The pastor will deliver his Easter sermon at 11:30 a.m. You will do
well to hear him. He will deliver a short message at 8:30 p.m. At an intermission of the program all are urged to be present.
The Y. M. C. A. will enjoy a rare treat Easter Sunday, 3 p. m., when Miss Ida K. Hinds of New York City well known lecturer and author, will read and speak. Miss Hinds captivated the members of Ebbell Club recently and is highly spoken of by the great dailies of America and Canada. This meeting will be open to all, as we are anxious for the women of the city to have the opportunity to hear her.
Palm Sunday at the People's Independent Church of Christ was indeed a glorious day. The pastor's theme both morning and evening was "Knowing Jesus." Text from the 12th chapter of St. oJhn. He saying in part: The people of the church must know Jesus to be able to introduce him to the sinners who come seeking him. As Jesus entered Jerusalem he was greeted with song. The Greeks hearing of him came hither seeking him, saying, "We would see Jesus. We have heard of his great works, but we would now see him and know him for ourselves." So comes the sinner to the Christian or to the house of God, which should be in close companionship with Christ as the introducer must know the one introduced. In the afternoon the sermon of the Eastern Star was preached by Rev. H. D. Prowd, pastor of the Second Baptist church. This was a masterly sermon and eloquently delivered.
On Easter Sunday the children's Easter program will be at 11 o'clock The sermon of the Knights Templar will be preached by Rev. Greggs, pastor, in the afternoon. All are invited to come and spend the day with us, as dinner will be served in the basement during the afternoon.

FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH NOTES
Corner 8th and Towne Ave.
Rev. J. Logan Craw, Pastor
Last Sunday's services were very large and thoroughly edifying. All in attendance were presented palm crosses. The pastor delivered the two sermons and there was one accession to the membership. Our vested choir presented an unusually inspiring appearance and sang to the perfect delight of both our large congregations. The musical and literary program by the Endeavor Society was one of the best ever heard and every participant is deserving of special praise.
Easter services will be observed with three great big meetings Sunday. Processional by our vested choir promptly at 11 o'clock. Miss Edna Heard of Santa Monica, and a pupil of Miss Lilias Hart, will sing at this time. The pastor will deliver the Easter sermon. The Easter rally will then ensue.

Glorious services were enjoyed throughout the day by all who worshipped at this church on last Sunday. Attorney Geo. H. Woodson, of Buxton, Iowa, a loyal Congregationalist, was introduced and he gave some inspiring and encouraging words in the opening service. The pastor was at his best and brought a practical message on the Triumphal Entry, taking as his text: "The Lord hath need of them," Matt. 21:3.
"Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness," was the text of the pastor at the evening service. The Lord's Supper was celebrated at the morning and evening services. One accession to membership was made.
The special meetings which have been in progress the past week promises to be of unusual interest tonight when Dr. H. D. Prowd of the Second Baptist church will bring to us the message.
Sunday will be a great day for us. The pastor will bring the Easter message at the morning service. At 3:00 o'clock Rev. B. C. Robeson, the efficient pastor of the A. M. E. Zion church will break to us the bread of life. The evening service will be given over to the Sunday School, at which time their Easter exercises consisting of songs and recitations, will be given. You are cordially invited to all these services.
SACRED CONCERTS AT A. M. E.
CHURCH SUNDAY
Choir and Sunday School at the A. M. E. church are striving to make this Easter's services the best as they are the last in the five years' pastorate of Rev. Dyett. The Sunday School will meet at 10 o'clock and at the regular morning service hour eleven o'clock, will present the Easter story in recitation and song. Parents especially are invited to this service. The Young People's meeting will be led by Rev. Bussie at 6:30. The choir at 7:30 will present a sacred concert for which they have been preparing for weeks. This will be the last big concert by the choir under the direction of Mrs. Dyett and will well repay the big crowd of members and friends expected at the church Sunday night.
The Steward's rally last Sunday was a splendid success, following as it did upon the heels of the recent building fund rally. The pastor at morning service, Rev. B. C. Robeson in a splendid afternoon sermon and Rev. J. W. Price at night preached to large audiences. Rev Kinchen and Rev. Fleming also Rev. and Mrs. Judkins of Duarte and their congregations united with the church in the afternoon service. A total of $119.08 was raised by the class leaders as follows: Class No. 1, Wm. Bunch, Mrs. Hardin and Mrs. Robinson in charge, $29; No. 2, H. T. Wright, leader, $14.25; No. 3, Mrs. Tysu, $19.05; No. 4, M. Burton, $18; No. 15, Mrs. DePugh, $8.55; No. 6, Mr. Fouche, $13.05; Ladies Aid, $7.00; Stewartedess, $8.00; collection, $2.90. This effort leaves the church with pastor paid up. The rally proved a testimonial of esteem on the part of the congregation for a devoted and efficient pastor. Rev Dyett expressed deep appreciation for the loyalty and kindness and untiring efforts of the members.

CHURCH, PASADNA
Services at the Metropolitan Baptist church Sunday were a source of inspiration all day.

Mrs. W. F. Woodyard was hostess at an afternoon tea last Thursday afternoon complimentary to Mine M. Busby, who has been elected delegate to the Ancient Order of Foresters to be held at Oakland in the month of May.
The home of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis C. Dials was thrown open to their friends, last Monday, 26th ult. when they entertained in honor of their 20th anniversary. It was indeed a scene of beauty and a welcome to all. Never before has such encouraging words been given in the home. The matrimonial paper by Mrs. Pearl Johnson was indeed a treat to all who heard it, and the response by Rev. N. P. Greggs was fitted for the occasion and was indeed commendable. The sweet music by Misses Pearl, Nadine and Wilma Bratton was unsurpassed and much praise was given them for their excellent talent. The fruit game was enjoyed by all. The prize was won by Mrs. Edward Brown after which punch, chicken salad, sandwiches, coffee, vanilla and strawberry ice cream was served in orange, chocolate and caramel cakes. Quotations were in order. Many beautiful gowns were worn by the ladies which added to the beauty of this cozy home. Many beautiful pieces of hand-painted china were received with great pleasure' several being from friends who could not be present. After congratulating the ceyuple on their long and happy married life and wishing to live to celebrate another, the guests departed, acknowledging an evening well spent.

...Last Thursday evening at the Cadillac Cafe where walls and ceiling were beautifully decorated and where a table was laden with good things of the season that satisfy the inner man, 20 persons, members of the famous White Sox Baseball Team sat down to a service that was for a king. The management of the cafe spared no pains in the matter of decoration and service in making this a splendid affair. $ ^{6} $ The White Sox has won national fame as one of the leading teams of this country.
The Memorial Season Approaching.
On Tuesday, April 5th, after 6 p.m., the beginning of the 14th day of Nissan, according to the Jewish calculation, God's truly consecrated children who are following in the Master's footsteps and fully desirous of doing His will in the light of present truth, will celebrate the Memorial Supper. This season is especially sacred to Christians, because it commemorates the death of our Lord Jesus, and forcefully brings to mind that we are to die with Him as a part of His sacrificial Body—the Church Eph. 1:22-23.
It was on the 14th day of Nisna that the Master instituted the Memorial Supper. According to Jewish time, each day began at 6 p. m. It happens that on this year, Thursday April 5th. 6 p. m. is the beginning of the day which marks the anniversary of that important event.
The days of the week just preceding the institution of the Memorial Supper, recorded events of great importance, culminating on the 14th day of Nisan with the greatest event of the world's history—the death of the Son of God, that He might thereby become the Redeemer of the whole world. The world knew nothing of the importance of the passing events, and even thh Apostles comprehended them but vaguely.
Likewise the importance of the present neur is not comprehended by the world, and cannot be fully appreciated by any of us in our present state. The order of things

The members of the club who understand its purpose, feel that the finest membership privilege is the privilege of serving others and the home's greatest need is the co-operation of all citizens for its maintenance. Last Monday, March 26, was Educational Day. Dr. Stovall gave an address on health; Mrs. V. E. Moxley a talk on Sojourner Truth; Mrs. M. D. Scritt the poems and Mrs. L. V.

SOJOURNER NOTES
Sojourner Truth Club women deserve the heartiest support and co-operation of all citizens in their fourth annual rally. They need $1000.00 to complete payment on the home, and if the citizens do their part by those loyal women they will celebrate their fourth anniversary May 18th with their home free from debt, and claim a reward of $100. Let all who can buy a link in the silver claim (which is $1.00 toward the rally) when the members approach them, and rest assured if the $1000.00 is realized the women of the club will not appeal to the public for some time. With the liquidation of the debt, a broader scope to the work can be accomplished. The Home was opened id May 1918 at a cost of over $5000 all of which has been paid, except $1000 aside from its maintenance which has been quite an item. In these few years of its operation hundreds of girls and women have accepted its hospitality and made it their home during their stay in the city. The home has furnished employment to all of its members who needed work and placed compass help in the best

This being the Thirtieth Anniversary of The California Eagle, which mission has ever been the promotion of Racial enterprises, the establishment of a greater bond of union between all people of the earth and the establishment of a record of the doings of our people, we propose to some time during the year bring out a monster edition showing not only our own progress but the progress of the Racel in this section.
Lest your readers think that we have forgotten them in our pursuit of the principal topic of interest, viz: The Progressive Educational Association, permit us to say that an absence from the city for some weeks has prevented our prosecution of the work nearest our heart, and we are now taking up the pencil again in the work and we trust that the enthusiasm manifested on previous occasions in reference to this gigantic and far-reaching proposition will again be in the foreground and receive the attention that the plan demands, and we want to again get in touch with the readers who are tired of barely subsisting in this glorious Southandh, because they are hampered in their efforts, and have not the opportunities that their best efforts warrant, consequently on every hand we see failures where there could otherwise be luxury and plenty, and the sooner we all realize that there is something better for all of us, and pull for the highest attainments, then it will be the greatest success along all lines of endeavor.

pe is in the immediate neighborhood of the land secured by the Association for colonization purposes, and augurs well for the future price of that commodity here in this section of the United States, and when the fact is taken into consideration that this territory is merely in its embryonic stage, we ask what will be the future of this industry, when it becomes fully developed? A safe prediction can only be presumed, but it certainly admits of the greatest possibilities, and what is true of one branch of farming will be true of all others when once under the magic wand of the true and earnest soul, intent on getting the best results and satisfied with none other. Just like every other calling to obtain the very best results, one must specialize and study soil and conditions to the best advantage, and when this is done immense crops will be the inevitable rule in this country which God has blessed, and which we really believe was reserved in this glorious twentieth century for our people to come into their own. As has been well said, "Who knows what a day may bring forth," and this sayingg is being verified every day many times over, and to our mind we are just on the eve of great accomplishments in our work. We have been asked so many times during the past month, what the resources were and what steps were being taken to the commencement of the building of the schools and institutions

More in your next issue. Yours for larger growth and greatness. JAMES H. LONGDEN, Legal Adviser Progressive Educational Ass'n.
A Lesson in Horticulture.
If amateurs would plan out their garden before they start to sow the seeds, they would reap bigger crops and fewer disappointments, also buy your seeds from reliable seedman, as seeds are very scarce this year.
Rotation of crops is needed to economize plant food and help avoid plant disease. Tomatoes, lettuce and cabbage, for example, may be planted this season where peas and beans grew last.
Double cropping will double the total yield. That means that beets, cabbage or celery will go in as soon as early pease are off, that turnips will follow early beets and that lettuce will be sowed wherever a vacant space appears.
It is a wise plan to start peas, beans, corn, radishes, beets and lettuce at intervals of a week or ten days all through the spring. Then there will be a long season of each kind.
The earliest seeds to go in are peas, radishes; lettuce and spinach, which may be planted as soon as the soil is fit to work.
Tomatoes in the back yard garden are best trained to stakes or supported on frames to economize space and keep the fruit clean. When you set out tomato plants which have long thin stalks, if a shallow trench be scooped out and a large part of the stalk bent lengthwise and buried along with the roots, scores of new rootlets will be formed and the strength of the plant greatly increased. Tomatoes may be stimulated by sinking a tin can in the ground at the base of each plant and partly filling it with manure, holes having first been made in the sides of the can. When water is poured into the cans the roots will get a fertilizer that they can use immediately. MRS J. H. GRAHAM,
Supt. Forestry Dept.

And the sunshine of Love! perfect love

As the spring brings grass,

DISAPPOINTMENT FROM
AN- EXALTED HEIGHT
a Spee Sy, eee ee Se
posed granting additional powers
to the United States Supreme
Court, John Randolph said: “The
Book of Judges comes before the
Book of Kings.” It is a historic
fact that a majority, and often a
bare majority, df the Supreme
Court has sometimes sought to
extend its jurisdiction to’ the
enunciation of political doctrines.
Yet it is also true that the Amen
ican people have vigorously Op-
posed this fendency: In the fam-
oys, or rather infamous, “Dred
Scott” decision, Chief Justice Ta-
ney said: “A Negro has no
rights which a White man_ is
bound to respect;” and fifteen
‘States precipitated the Civil War
in an endeavor to form a nation
based upon this inhuman. sen-
tence. A
The “Dred Scott” decision was
rent to fragments by Union bay-
onets, and at the ballot box, as
well as on the battlefield, the na-
tion declared that, although dis-
tinctions of Color might be made
in business, in social life and’ in
the church, yet when it came to
the ownership of his own muscles
and brains, the power to order his
own life, the Aesro had. rights
which all men, ‘of whatever caste
lor Color, must respect.
It is a grievous mistake tc
place upon the Supreme bench of
the nation a lawyer who may be
justly suspected of a tendency: to
subordinate his judicial - functions
to his secret or avowed. political
aspirations, for such a man, how-
ever dble-and however honest in
other respects, will be sorely
tried, and may yield to.the temp-
tation’ of dragging his ermine
which should be spotless, into the
unclean pool of politics. ‘The na-
tion was unfortunate when Jus-
tice Lamar died, and !more unfor-
‘tunate when Justicé Brandeis was
appointed to succeed him, for the
tendency.of the court to lean to-
lwards. Socialistic theories _ was
thereby accentuated’ to-a degree
that made possible the recent de

to the Passover, to be celebrated
on the 1ith. Thursday must have
been a day of keen interest to all
of the Jews, because between that
evening nnd the evening following
(Bx. 12:6, margin) was the time
for the slaying of the lamb, and the
roasting for the Passover.
Six o'clock that evening would
mark the beginning of the 14th
day of Niean(Friday) during which
dsy the paseover lamb must be
Killed and eaten. As the dsy drew
on, Jesus said to His disciples, “My
time is st hand.” He then gave
directions to His Apostles for the
sgnaking ready of the Passover Sup-
per; “and the disciples did as Jee
us-had appointed them, and they
made ready the Passover.” It was
incumbent upon the Lord, as s jew,
under the law arrangement, and al-
20 upon His disciples, to observe
the Pastover Supper. At the conclu-
sion of the Supper the Lord insti
tated « new thing.

Why Jesus Died At That Time
The Israelites had been for years
im the Jand of Ezypt, where they
were in bondage. .God sent Moses
to be their deliverer and Aaron to
be his mouthpiece. Under the
Pressure af the plagues Pharosh
declared that he would let the
children of Israel go, but each time
‘he broke his word. Now God por-
Poeed to send the tenth plague,

to| hurry the Israelites out of

ing him that at mid-night, on the
14th day of Nisan, the Death Mes-
of the Lord would pass

League.
Some months ago as the war lords
‘whistled from the blood-soaked’ shores
of Europe and thousands were ‘being
crushed beneath the cruel juggernaut
of hatred envy and malice, there
sat a few liberty-loving, justice-crav-
ing souls wrapped in the mantle of
deep meditation, Viewing with appre-
hension the grim spectacle being er-
acted across the ational life, beard
the newsboys yell of a few :days ago,
“war is here,”’ and America calling for
With hearts that beat in unison with
the principles of righteousness, truth
and justice they longed for the day
when America could poll down the fiag
of decit, prejudice and) discrimination
and wave in the breess'old glory, em-
blematic of liberty and freedom. Not
willing to stop there they bound them-
selves together to hasten its . dawn.
The results of their labor and the
clearness of their vimon are being daily
inseribed upon the banner of progress.
It takes faith and feariesmess to
break into new spheres. You must be-
eve in yourself and the field you would
plow. ‘You mast stiffle .all fears and
dety‘all obstacles. These noble souls
with the perspiration of conviction
heavy on their brows, the gleam of
faith in their eyes and \the blood of
courage coursing through their veins
consecrated themselves to the task of
opening the flood gates of despotism
and crucity and allowing 2 torrential
stream of equality, brotherhood and
equity to baptize this land which we
hold so dear.
‘This league has made a nate of
which it should be proud. Its prisci-
ples find an echo in every vibrant heart
ang ali eyes eagerly watch its sign-
board for instroctions. It hes lifted s
vaice of fairness, impartiality and love.
It}has sung a refrain of persassion,
suggestion and diplomacy that has
helped make happy many sad snd de-
spondent souls and cleared away the
rabbiah in mental backyards.

tifal Exposition Park where we could
place on exhibition some evidence of
the talent we possess and the work we
are constantly doing. There amid
California's. sun-kiseed. .palms._many
eyes were opened, many minds visibly
touched and many bearts deeply im-
were deepened and many earnest: vows
made that the beuner should: never
trail in the dust, and the All-American
League should never die until its pur-
pose should be gloriously achieved.
Our city, state and country are bless-
ed when, such forward-looking give
their deepest consideration to. the in-
ealcation of the principles upon which
national solidity is founded in the minds
and hearts of all citizensiof this grand
republic. | We believe in our ¢onntry,
and know that it should be steered
around the whirlpool which threaten its
destruction. We believe that when

clare undying allegiance thereto, that
all nations of the earth will be blessed.

Read My Piatform.
First—I think membership in
in the CITY COUNCIL a place
of honor and'trust and if elected,
Ishall try to treat all classes just-
ly so that at the end of my term
I shall feel that I ‘have been
worthy of the ‘honor ‘bestowed
upon me:
Second—I. consider that the
smallest wage. earner | pays his
share of taxes, either directly or
‘indirectly, and his interests
should be protected just as
carefuliy as those of the more
wealthy or influential.
Think f mate tobeeh wom a
matters with fairness equity
‘toward all classes, with the best
interests of LOS ANGELES al-
ways in view.
Fourth—Laws that are bene-
ficial to the public in general
should be énforeed without fear
Gr favor, and those laws that are
not for the public welfare should
be changed to meet present con-
ditions. z
Fifth—Any new radical laws
should have the fullest. consider-
ation, and the advice of able 2nd
competent men who have been
accustomed to handling large
ai :
Sixth—Licensee should not be
placed so high as to breed dis-
honesty or crime and‘ any busi-
ness for Which the payment of a
ficenise is requifed should have
the full protection of the govern-
ment under which it operates,
witllin its legal rights. :
Seventh—I do not believe in so
edness, causing exeessive in-
crease in taxation, as to discour-
age new-coiners to invest their
money in homes here,-or discour-
age wage earners in their “ambit-
ion to own their own homes.
Eighth—I believe in municipal
ownership in all instances based
ou th wh busiz jnciph
where the benefit and nee:
the public are assured.
