The California Eagle DO YOUR BIT FOR THE RED CROSS VOLUME 30 By JOHN B. MILLER Mr. Miller was appointed by President Wilson to take charge of the American Red Cross War Fund in the territory west of the Mississippi. If you are a real American you must contribute to the War Fund of the Red Cross during the week of June 18th to 25th, whether you believe yourself able or not. If you are a real American it is not a question of giving from your surplus—you must gove and keep on giving until you can give no more, and even after that, you must keep on. We are at war, but we do not realize what war is, and, if the ed Cross is able to do its full duty, we will never know what war can be. Do you know what the Red Cross does? Some day, "Somewhere in France," when our soldiers are in the trenches, a line of American boys will leap over the top of their trenches, slip through the barbed wire, and, in face of high explosive shells, gas, liquid fire, shrapnel, grenades, machine gun and rifle fire, face the barbed wire in front of enemy trenches for the bare chance of meeting bayonet with bayonet, other boys no more to blame for this war than they are. E. A. HARRIS You know what the loss will be. You know that after Ypres the Princess Pats had only 127 men alive out of the 689 that saw the sun come up that day. What of the fallen? If the Red Cross is ready, the Ambulance Corps of the fighting regiments will carry the wounded back through the communicating trenches to the dressing station. Here Red Cross surgeons, under the direct control of the United States Medical Department will give first aid. The wounded will be turned over to Red Cross ambulances, and carried back to the Red Cross field hospital for immediate attention. From the Red Cross field hospital, Red Cross ambulances, Red Cross trains and, in France, even Red Cross canal boats will carry the men back to the Red Cross base hospitals. If the wound is not fatal a Red Cross convalescing station will take care of the soldier till he is ready to go back to the front. If the man is disabled a Red Cross steamer will bring him back to America, and the Red Cross receiving station here will care for him, send him home and on top of that look after his family after he is wounded just as it will have looked after his family all the time he has been away. Do you know what this means? In the old days before the Red Cross came, 600 soldiers died out of every 1000 wounded. Today under proper conditions the percentage is not over 5 per cent. If your boy was wounded every dollar you have in the world would go willingly to put him in Red Cross hands. Sixty thousand Los Angeles boys registered June 5th for the draft. How many of them will require Red Cross aid within the next two years? The Red Cross is not a hit or miss organization, grabbing a dollar here and a dollar there and wasting the money. It is one of the five offensive and defensive arms of every civilized government on the face of the earth. Every dollar that comes in is spent by the best business men in America for supplies and materials designated by the Medical Department of the United States Army—the Department that has stamped out yellow fever as well as other great national scourges. Ex-President Taft is the chairman of the Red Cross. A partner in the house of Morgan is its financial chief. Its accounts are audited by the War Department. Its existence and operations are directed under special Acts of Congress, and President Wilson himself, by executive order, established the Executive Committee under which the Red Cross is now being managed. The Red Cross is therefore a part of the fighting forces of the Government and must be supported as such. This support will be easy enough to get—when that support is too late. Let the toll of one battle mount—as it often does—to 25,000 men or more! With the hospitals overcrowded and our own men dying for want of attention, the response to the Red Cross call will roll in fast enough—but then it will be too late. Don't be a choice. You insultly will contribute. Who not San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, JUNE 16, 1917 YOUR PRESIDENT SAYS: WHITE HOUSE, May 10, 1917—"I have today created within the Red Cross a War Council to which will be entrusted the duty of responding to the extraordinary demands which the present war will make upon the services of the Red Cross both in the field and in civilian relief, and I hereby earnestly call upon all those who can contribute either great sums or small to the alleviation of the suffering and distress which must inevitably arise out of this fight for humanity and democracy, to contribute to the Red Cross. "Therefore, by virtue of my authority as President of the United States, and as President of the American Red Cross, I. Woodrow Wilson, do hereby proclaim the week beginning June 18th, 1917, as Red Cross week, during which the people of the United States will be called upon to give generously and in a spirit of patriotic sacrifice for the support and maintenance of this work of national need." WOODROW WILSON. A PLEA FOR JUSTICE OUT IN BOOK FORM—SELLING ON SIGHT Through the Rev. John A. H. Eldfridge, the remarkable address of Miss Myrtle Brenice Anderson, delivered at the Los An-Mr. Frank Morrissey (white) geles High School before the Senior Class of 1917, the title of the same is "A Plea for Justice." It consists of 16 pages neatly bound in a pamphlet 6x4, lark leatherette cover in letters of gold, although just released from the publishers on last Saturday the supply of the books has almost been exhausted. No description of the book could excel that of the introduction of the book itself by Rev. J. A. H. Eddige.

No description of the book could excel that of the introduction of the book itself by Rev. J. A. H. Eddige. The address was delivered by Miss Myrtle Bernice Anderson before the Senior Class of the Los Angeles High School, of which she was a member, on the 24th day of May, 1916, in answer to a degrading speech made by one before the same class, of which he also was a member. The subject upon which Mr. Morrissey was scheduled to speak was "The Naturalization of Races." Instead of confining his remarks to the text before him he immediately departed from it and launched out into a villainous attack upon the Negro race, openly advocating segregation and discrimination in every conceivable form which might tend to humiliate and degrade a people, and boldly recommending the lynch law for Negroes. Differing widely from the manner of Mr. Morrissey's address, whose remarks were based solely upon prejudice, malice and hatred, Miss Anderson registered her reply with cool, deliberate and undeniable facts and figures. Since the publication of this address by The Chicago Defender under date of January 20, 1917, Miss Anderson has received hundreds of letters of congratulation from people representing every State in the Union, Alaska, The Dominion of Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, many of which contained material evidence of the writers' appreciation of Miss Anderson's most noble effort in defense of her Race, and expressing a hope that the entire race might be given the opportunity of reading the address and profiting thereby. In view of these earnest requests, and hoping that some good may be derived therefrom, we consider it a sacred duty to send the address broadcast into the world. congratulation from people representing every State in the Union, Alaska, The Dominion of Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, maiy of which contained material evidence of the writers' appreciation of Miss Anderson's most noble effort in defense of her Race, and expressing a hope that the entire race might be given the opportunity of reading the address and profiting thereby. In view of these earnest requests, and hoping that some good may be derived therefrom, we consider it a sacred duty to send the address broadcast into the world. Be it known to all who may read this that Miss Anderson REV. JOHN A. H. ELDRIGE Be it known to all who may read this that Miss Anderson is a young woman of exceptional qualities and high ambitions, chiefest of which is to furthur her educatin in order that she may be more able to defend the Race in the days that are yet to come. With this object in view we are sending forth this little article, trusting that it may find its way into the home of every Negro throughout the United States. And there it may be read and reread, and ever prove an inspiration to the youth of the race. And may it ever be kept as a lasting monument to the memory of this dear young woman, who, in defending her people against tremendous odds, displayed such undaunted courage, in addition to her unshaken confidence in her struggling Race and her unwavering faith in a God of Hope. As forestated, this remarkable plea has been published by Rev. Eldridge for the, purpose of assisting Miss Anderson through school and the race will no doubt rally to this cause by purchasing this work, which simply places one more defender in the forefront to advocate the cause of the race. Therefore the race is indeed indebted to Rev. Eldridge for his thoughtfulness in putting this work before the public as well as to Miss Anderson for her magnificent plea for justice and in year to come we feel certain of a woman who with a richer and more varied experience will stand like a mighty gladiator and with her matchless eloquence roll back forever the waves of prejudice that from time to time seek to overwhelm THE PEOPLES FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN FORMER LOS ANGELES PASTOR MAKING-NOTABLE RECORD IN THE SOUTHLAND The image provided is too blurry and low-resolution to accurately recognize any text. It appears to be a blank or partially obscured document. Therefore, no text can be extracted from this image. Rev. A. C. Williams, D. D., formerly pastor of the Mt. Zion Baptist church, this city, and later founded the Providence Institutional church, is now pastoring one of the foremost churches of the South at Birmingham, Ala., and from the official church paper published in that city we glean the fact of the remarkable success he is achieving in his new field. We glean in part the following figures, denoting its progress from June 1, 1916, to May 31, 1917. Total collections, $8,053.41; from the auxiliaries, $2,453.01, making a grand total of $10,506.41. The export also accounts for 304 accessions to the church, of which 167 were candidates for baptism, and the congregations re larger than ever before. He many friends of Pastor Williams will no doubt be leased to learn of his magnificent success and wish for im a continuation of the same until the fuller height shall be attained. POPULAR PHYSICIAN ESTABLISHES MODERN OFFICE ON TWELFTH STREET In our rounds in and about our business and professional men who are doing things we ran into Dr. Eugene C. Nelson, who has made rapid strides in the practice of his profession in this city and is keeping pace with the same by providing for his clientage the very best and most modern conveniences. He has opened and furnished one of the most complete sanitary and modern physician's office in the entire city, located at 1139 East 12th street, which place he has thoroughly renovated and newly furnished throughout. Aside from the reception room he has a consultation room, a hydro-therapeutic treatment room, operating room and post operation room, all of these are enameled in immaculate and spotless white, with the very latest physicians' furnishings, including a violet and X-ray machine. The post operation room is nicely furnished with all of the appurtenances of such a room and contains beds for the patients, so the doctor has at his own office a miniature hospital as it were. It is indeed a high credit not only to Dr. Nelson but to the people and the city as well. THE SOARING EAGLE WILL FLY ACROSS THE CONTINENT On Sunday, the 7th inst., we are leaving for an extended visit with our mother and relatives in Providence, R. I., and we wish to thank the loyal supporters of The California Eagle, who have so nobly stood by both myself and my husband for the past few years. It has not been our lot to take an actual vacation since 1910. In going we hope to gather new zeal, greater inspiration, more information and come back within three months with the determination to make for you even a bigger and better California Eagle. During my stay from the city Mr. John Prowd, son of the eminent Dr. Prowd of the Second Baptist Church, will take my place in the office, and out of his months of experience and careful assimilation will be prepared to render you good service along all lines of the business. We wish to thank the many friends who have paid our efforts some tribute upon our leaving, especially to Mrs. C. Hulbert and the Ladies' Art Guild, who entertained us and the excellent program and reception on June 4th at the residence of Mrs. Edwards on Denver Avenue. 1910 What the Churches are Doing PAGE TWO Elder Ballenger preached at the 11 o'clock service at the Berean Free Seventh Day Adventist Church last Sabbath.

Afternoon at 3 Come early and get a good seat. WARD CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH Sunday was observed at this church in a very befitting manner, from the Sunday school in the morning until the closing service in the evening. The young folks had their children's day program in the morning which was very interesting. We enjoyed a high spiritual fervor throughout the day until the members and visitors were forced to cry out, surely God is in this place. The entertainment given by Sister Robt True Thursday evening at First Church, 8th and Towne avenue, has been pronounced by her as having been a success; we are very grateful to all for assisting this great church worker and her husband, who are doing so much for the advancement of the weaker churches. Our fourth and last quarterly meeting will be held the first Sunday in July. Please get your claims ready. Sunday will be the closing of the big rally to raise the first payment on our property.

CALIFORNIA BAPSTIST STATE CONVENTION WILL MEET IN RIVERSIDE, JUNE 19-22 The California Baptist State Convention will meet in the Second Baptist church of Riverside, June 19-22. Rev. G. W. Reed, pastor of the church and corresponding secretary of the convention, says that from returns which have been received at his office, that most every church in the State will represent in this meeting, together with the auxiliaries. A delegation of more than 150 is looked for. An elaborate program has been prepared for the occasion, for excelling any rogram ever presented at any of the previous meetings. The Sunday schools and B. Y. P. U. will meet here also to organize a state convention. FIRST A. M. E. ZION CHURCH Pico and Paloma Sts. Rev. B. C. Robeson, Pastor The presiding elder, Rev. W. M. Matthews, occupied the pulpit Sunday last. His subject was, "The Four-faced Man." I Chap. Ezekiel, 5-10 verses. It was very instructive and helpful. He contrasted the four-faced man with the two-faced man. He said he admired the former and abhorred the latter, and Zion could afford to lose the latter type. He compared the Eagle who flies upon the loftiest peak and views things as they are—in their proper proportions—with the cat-bird, which does nothing but flutters in the low and dismal shrubbery, flutters and whines just like so many members of the hurch. He admonished all to take to higher and nobler things. He also spoke of a brand new church created in the Palo Verde district due to the coming of large race groups, fruits of the exodus. Also of the finding of deeds of a church property which is occupied by a congregation of another connection, which would eventually be taken over by Zion connection. He concluded by telling of the promising field in Arizona-Prescott. The mayor of the city invited them there, and spoke at the service and besides romised to give $2.00 to $1.00 raised by the colored people toward the erection of church buildings. Third Quarterly Conference was held Monday, June 11, 1917. Good reports and much money was raised. The astor will choose for his text next Sunday at 11 a.m. service "Popular Announcements." At 8 p.m. he will Rev. J. C. Anderson, Pastor Two jillian services were enjoyed at this church on the last Sunday. Presiding Elder Eeldon held his third quarterly meeting and administered the communion of the Lord's Supper to two splendid congregations. The services were of a highly spiritual order and we had two accessions to the membership of the church. On Tuesday night Miss Ruby C. Pettiford of Sabina, Ohio, gave a recital to a very appreciative audience. Miss Pettiford has a pleasing personality and is one of the best readers it has been the pleasure of the writer hearing in quite awhile. She was complimented very highly by the hearers of her program on Tuesday night. The pastor will preach a special sermon to the young people on Sunday morning and we urge upon the young people to be out and hear it. Friends and visitors are always welcome to the services of this church. ST. PAUL'S BAPTIST CHURCH Delinquent members and others are finding their way back to St. Paul. Under the present administration we have reason to expect much. Already every department has taken on new life and plans are being laid for a great campaign. Last Sunday's services were well attended. Sunday school, 9:30. At 11 a.m. Pastor Holt electrified his audience with a vivid picture of "The Two Builders." Text, Matt. 7:24-27. Pastor Holt reached at the Metropolitan church of Pasadena at 3 p.m. That splendid congregation met a pleasant surprise. Returning at 7:30 we listened to an able sermon. Subject, "Indecision." Hear him next Sunday on that technical subject, "Bible Sanctification." Come and hear the other side. FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH NOTES Cor. 8th and Towne Ave. Rev. J. Logan Craw, Pastor Children's Day was appropriately observed last Sunday and two large congregations were edified in this annual observance. The pastor preached at 11 o'clock and there were three accessions to membership. Three converts were also baptized at the altar. A large representation of our business men and women were present at this service and the pastor presented them to the congregation and urged co-operation with the same. At 7:45 p.m. the Sunday school and choir rendered a program to the delight of all present. You are welcome to our services o the coming Lord's Day. The pastor will preach at both services. Special Effort Dollar Money Day will take place on the third Sunday in July, which is July 15. Let all who are able, pay yours now to the pastor.

Wilson "Old Folks' Day" Sunday, July 8th Phone Mrs. Minnie Tucker, Broadway 6235 or Mr. H. F. Posey, Broadway 4677, the names of the "Old Folks" that you would like to have attend this special service. Free dinner to all the "Old Folks" who will be our special guests. Free automobile service. LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGRE GATIONAL CHURCH 34th and Central Ave. E. E. Lightner, Pastor "A Man Who Turned Aside" was the subject of the pastor's sermon on last Sunday morning, based on the text, "And Moses said, I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt." Exodus 3:3. He said in part,/"Although Moses was reared in an environment that tended to make him a useful and successful man, the secret of this great life lay in his decision to turn aside to see the great sight, why the bush was not burned. Until he turned aside he had been the shepherd of cattle; when he turned aside he was made the shepherd of a great people. There are those today who are living mediocre lives, who might be of great service in the kingdom of God, if they would only turn aside from tending the flock of their temporal interests and worldly pleasures, so that God can speak to them." At the evening service Dr. Geo. F. Kenngott, the superintendent of Congregational churches, was present and gave a good message on the "Function of the church. On next Sunday there will be the observance of children's day. Special sermon to children in the morning and exercise by the Sunday school in the evening. A cordial welcome to all. TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH Rev, J. D. Gordon, Pastor Sunday was a very interesting day at Tabernacle. Rev. Davis filled the pulpit at 11 o'clock. At 6:30 the B. Y. P. U. had a good meeting. Mrs. Bessie Settles led the lesson. At the evening service Rev. Gordon preached a very interesting sermon, his subject being an "Unclean Heart." Next Sunday, June 18, the pastor, by special request, will preach on "The Spiritual Causes of the Present War." All are invited to come out and hear this wonderful speaker.

Johnson of the Second A. M. E, church at Furlong Tract, the Eagle force presented @ program and from the interest evinced and enthusiasm manifested, we are foreed to the conclusion that our efforts were apreciated to the highest. ‘The force was present in full. Rev. B.:T. Hubbard was presented as ‘master! of ‘ceremonies, and after a ‘basso solo by our premier| basso’ soloist, “J. ‘R. Manning, Editor “Bass spoke on jour nalism. He in s matchless manner presented the cause of the Negr press. Attorney Hugh B. Macbeth in his usual forceful manner, aroused ‘the ‘greatest enthustasm on” the: tin of “Trae: Americantam,” and the mai lsecu sie nealing Cit wanes ee ‘The Negro’s critics have sald that he is an imitator—he does not cre- he will not pioneer; everything must be ready for him; he constructs very Uittle’ for hitiself, but waits until something 1s constructed and then he applies for the position of keep- ing it clean, etc.—Well, having lived with the Race all my life and know- ing it pretty well, I am not able to deny that there is some truth in these aspertions. 3 But of! all the places I have lived, California's Colored people more nearly meet this condition. Nearly every house*he lives ini was bullt for someone’ else—nesrly every position he holds is his by the mercies of others—he produces little—he alms at little and he strikes at a great many things which might result in his larger good. In a gettlement of from eight to ten thousand of them in @ Southern California City, there are but a few stores, attempts. at shoe stores by worthy young Colored men fail for lack of patronage; fur- niture stores condncted by Race men must depend on other people. ' One of the finest drug stores conducted by a Race, man finds its largest asset in its soda fountain because of the easy tables for lounging, but the cheap eating houses are galore. | I have touched on this picture’ in order that I might coiitrast one brighter: Allensworth, as we all know, is a colony of Colored people founded by the late Col. Allensworth, several years ago.. It has had a rocky road, not only due to the natural conditions but to the falsehoods and misrepre- sentations of people who do not try to do things themselves, but busy themselves to dwarf the possibilities of this heroic little colony, Allens- worth is the one bright 'that refutes the. statement that the Negroes are not constructive. If ever a band of people have exhibited faith it is this colony. Faith in themselves, faith in thelr great leader, Col, Allens- worth, and his splendid wife, and faith in their noble teachers and faith in God. : Our people are so satisfied to oc- cupy false relationship; insulted, humiliated, and robbed of chances of high development that one finds it real refreshing to locate a spot where his people are willing to strike out for themselves. Oh, well, you say, but look what poor houses! Yes, but they are their own. Look how far away from civilization. Yes, it would be better if more of us had our- selves and children away from the kind of civilization with which We are surrounded and Ike the citizens of Allensworth, make for ourselves a civilization ‘with an atmosphere of freedom and. high. moral ideals—a civilization that gives the womanhood of the race an opportunity to stay at home and help God build men and women of our boys and girls, and not leave them to the mercies of every vil influence while mother and fatier $re working in order to pay rent ang to beautify some other Person’s hose in order that they might compete with the lomes they work in. This is the challenge of that ttle Negro colony in the San Joaquin Valley to the people of Cali- fornia. One will find a fine spirit of communism in this colony which Is to be seen in the fellowship of the people, in the uniform simplicity of their homes, in the effort of. the people to see that no one suffers, in the high moral standards‘which every man and woman swears to maintain in order to protect the growing boys and girls of the colony. ‘The most vital force in “Allens- worth for good, however, is the school. No tthe building so imuch, for that is simple, but the unsur- passed teachers—Prot. W. A. 2, and our own little Margaret . Some teachers in some places ren- der only mechanital seryice—holding down a position; getting a salary, having no interest in the homelifo of the pupils; no time or inclination for Church ‘activities; “no personal touch with the problems of the com munity and in: many instances poor examples of real vital life. But here ‘are teachers whose lives are wrapped up In the lives of thelr puplls—who enter the home life of the people —who give their time not only to the intellectual training of their pu- pil, but ad well to the moral and re- lgious training of the community. It was a fine tribute that Dr, Woll ‘Wood, superintendent of secondary @ducation of the State of California. }paid Prof, Payne. He said to the writer: “I consider Mr, Payne one of the best teachers in Californie.
