VOLUME 30 Must Be Stopped New Sentiment of Colored Americans in United States SUMMARY OF MANAGING EDITOR OF CALIFORNIA EAGLE'S THREE MONTHS SOJOURN IN THE EAST. THE HOUSTON RIOT This treatment of Corporal Baltimore impressed itself upon the colored soldiers stationed at Houston in such manner that the black american soldiers who had protected the honor of the United States flag at San Juan and Carrizal felt that one time had come when they should defend their own honor with their life's blood if necessary. When a report of the trouble reached the camp where the 24th Infantry was stationed, Major Snow, officer in charge, got in communication with the chief of police and the chief admitted that his men were at fault, at suggested that the government ended the situation. The colored soldiers upon receiving this information through the sition and realized that there would be no redress on the part of Houston policemen for the treatment accorded corporal Baltimore and their other associate, and that probably their own lives were not worth very much unless they resented in some way the mutual treatment that had been meted out to their comrades. During the day after the fusillade the morning, both Negro soldiers and Houston policemen had time to meditate and the longer they thought more revengeful was the growing ting of the one towards the other, and so as the day grew into night these dark skinned Americans decided that life without liberty was not after all, and when Vida Henry Company No. 1, 24th Infantry, volunteered to be their leader, under over of darkness they marched into section of Houston which was scene of the morning trouble. Major Snow and the other officers charged did everything that was thin their power to keep the color-soldiers from marching; but find that they were powerless they noed the police department and as as the chief had flashed the news through the department and over the that Negro soldiers were marchin in the direction of the 4th Ward, army of policemen re-inforced byilians, went out to meet them. We talked with many of the cold people living in the 4th Ward in the immediate vicinity of the tale of August 23rd and in each we were told that the only parted by any of them was peeking through tightly red doors and doors without daring even to take respiration for fear of being tired, for they said that they exed every minute to have their crushed in and their lives snuffout. they also reported that every solider that aimed brought down his vice and that the casualty list among whites in the conflict was much lower in numbers than any Housiaqua was wont to publish, and of course, than any Houston weekly pred) dared to publish. How the papers gave it four city poults, two Negro soldiers, one Capt. Mattes of an Illinois com-mof National Guardsmen, who apted to quell the disturbance, ten other persons, consisting of citizens and soldiers. Of theided there were six negro sol- and fifteen white persons. We have already stated the col-people living in the vicinity ofioting were afraid to venture out it was impossible for them to see how many were actually kill- out we were told by many who good views behind there upper arms that men could be seen fall- on all sides, and that the eager leaders could be seen running for lives seeking shelter from shots the soldiers guns beneath a harpe and even vehicles. said that during the night of shot the antiquated mob leaders different sections of the city at- ted to rally their forces, and pull East St. Louis butchery and ing," crying lets kill all negroes." he tuned of the deadly aimed bul- linched between powerful black is reminded these blood thirsty ers that the end of their inhu- reign over one division of this lean population was nearing its MUTIL The California Eagle The next day the city was declared to be under martial law—white people were allowed to go and come as they pleased but no negro man, woman or child was allowed to leave home, not even to go to work. Officers were sent into every negro home with the command to sieve everything that resembled fire arms. The whites were allowed to retain whatever they had in the way of firearms, and some who were so alarmed over the method and manner of the colored troops attack broke open a hardware store and seized every bit of ammunition and fire arms that the store contained in order that they should be doubly prepared for any attack that might be undertaken by the soldiers. But no further effort of revenge was made by the troopers: some of whom stated that their only reason for their behavior upon this occasion was to convince that rought white element, who no doubt would have invaded the camp that very evening that they were prepared to defend their rights as American citizens. The negro soldier that participated in the riot was put under arrest and with the entire battalion under guard of the 19th Infantry was sent to Columbus, N. M. It was twenty days after the occurring of the riot that we reached Houston, and as we have stated in our previous articles upon our arrival at Houston we immediately started our investigation as to how the riot started and the after effect upon both races; and we found that even though nearly all of the papers had come out stating that the soldiers had been removed and that the guilty soldiers would be duly punished hence Houston had again assumed her normal state and everything was peaceful, there was a spirit of unrest on the part of many colored people and a feeling of bitterness on the part of many of the whites for all blacks—we learned that two or three colored men were killed, instantly killed, since the riot, by policemen for petty offences. Our hostess, Mrs. Lewis, described to us how, just the day before our arrival she had been walking along one of the main streets of Houston when a white man deliberately slapped and kicked a colored man off the street, and then looked around to observe the effect of his conduct upon the other colored citizens standing around. Since our visit to Houston, September 13-14, we have closely observed the effect of the August 23 riot not only upon the immediate vicinity of Houston, and the state of Texas but we notice that every southern state wherein there is a training camp for soldiers the governors have said to the government: "Remember the Houston affair, and don't use us any negroes for as sure as you do there will be a repitation of "the Houston affair." Just before going to press with the last chapter of our Houston visit The Houston Observer, one of the most out-spoken weeklies of all Texas brings the news of another litching of a race man staged near Houston, and this is what the Observer has to say: EXODUS ACCELERATORS NOTED HEREABOUTS At last old Harris County has joined the ranks of Judge Lynch; the Goose. Creek community having lynched a Negro in broad daylight last Friday. We knew that it was coming, but did not expect it so soon. After Galveston staged her Lynching party, all Negroes who were conversant with local conditions and sentiments among a certain class of whites, knew that this county and city would sek to imitate the Island City. Since we applied the name of "Lynchville Island" to Galveston, it now becomes our painful and sad duty to call Houston and particularly Goose Creek "Ropeville." It was the same old story: "Lynch the nigger' first and then ascertain his guilt." Doubt has since been expressed relative to the dead Negro's guilt by those who have investigated the incident. The Observer has condemned mob violence so much that it is considering the expendency and advisability of having such a sentence stereotyped, since we have need for it for each issue. Mob spirit is nothing more than a return to a state of savagery, barbarity and heathesim. The cannibals in darkest Africa are not to be compared with American mobocracy, which is gaining ground every day, while the better white citizens seem impotent and unwilling to attempt, to blot it out. We are not opposed to all criminals being punished according to their guilt, but we are opposed to a bunch of hoodlums, roughnecks and ignoramuses taking the law into their hands and wmeting out punishment to men before or after, trial. "If Negroes are expected to protect and die for the government, should not the government, local, state and national, protect and die for the Negro in seeing that he receives fair treatment and a square deal? Is that asking too much? San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, OCTOBER 6, 1917 On the heels of the Goose Creek lynching seventy-five (75) Negroes left Houston Saturday on the Sunshine Special for the North and East. Not being satisfied with having maliciously and ruthlessly murdered one race man premeditately, the Goose Creek billies and billies threatened all c. nr Negroes residing in the community and as a result several race men have deserted their tasks and have gone elsewhere. Who can blame them? Let us not satisfy ourselves by saying that the lynching did not happen in Houston. It did occur in Harris county and since the ice has been broken it is not preposterous or premature to presume and assume that others will attempt to follow suit against members of the race, as well as their own race. Sheriff Hammond, who did not get to the scene in time to prevent the lynching, is doing his best to apprehend and incarcerate the guilty participants and he is to be complimented for doing sheeriffs in other mobocratic counties in the South have failed to do. Several arrests have been made and the men are out on $1000 bonds. The guilty men should and must be punished and by so doing Harris county and Houston will be going a long ways towards upholding the name and reputation of this community. Following the lynching a local patrolman killed a Negro at the circus grounds Monday and all these incidents are accelerating the exodus of our people to other parts of the country. Three Negroes have been slain by officers of the law since the 23rd of August and many others have received beatings, cursings and the like. The only recourse we have is to leave the community and since the exodus began fully 1750 race men have left this section. So great has the exodus become that the Negro public school enrollment has made a decided slump. Conditions are alarming among our people and hundreds are planning to move to more hospitable and civilized climes. When members of the race are being lynched and shot down like dogs a spirit of unrest and uneasiness is sure to pervade the breasts of those who are fortunate enough to be alive. It is all right to make an effort to secure cantonments, camps, large mercantile establishments, factories and other institutions affording employment to men and women, but in the final analysis that community is best that treats its citizens best, irrespective of color or creed or previous condition of servitude or affluence. God cannot use a coward and would not employ one if he proffered his services. What affects one Negro affects the entire race and we must condemn the disregard for law and order in both races at all times and at any cost. In conclusion this Houston riot, as it is called and the part played by Negro soldiers of the 24th Infantry are not matters that should interest the colored people of Houston, but the entire Colored American population. It has been said, by white officers under whom these men have served that they represent some of the choice material of U. S. Army and that for order and discipline they enjoy an enviable record. The colored people of the west must get busy and with the race men and women of the east and demonstrate that as law abiding American citizens through the medium of a grand silent parade we resent the present treatment of White 'America against Black 'America at over this country. We wish at this time, also to thank the committee and the citizens who arranged for us a welcome home reception on the evening of September 19th at First A. M. E. church at which we were presented with a beautiful gold wrist watch for which we are very grateful. Hoping to render better service to our people in the future than we have in the past, Yours for all men up and no man down. NEW ODD FELLOWS LODGE INSTALLED AT MONROVIA A committee of Odd Fellows from Los Angeles journeyed to Monrovia on last Saturday night and set up a new Lodge of Odd Fellows composed of fifteen members. The work was accomplished with neatness and dispatch and Grand Secretary McDowell, Grand Treasurer J. D. Groves, accompanied by S. H. Greer (who was in charge of the ceremonies) and E. Russell, Grand Guardian, J. B. Bass, I. Robisonn, J. W. Coleman, A. J. Jennings, and others, were the recipients of the highest appreciation of the new lodge, there had been provided a feast long to be remembered by all who were present. The officers of the new lodge are J. I. W. Fisher, N. G.; W. A. Locke- tt, P. S.; M. Green, Treasurer; R. H. H. N. R. J. H. YOUNG ENLARGES BUSINESS. Mr. J. H., Young, the well known and popular owner of the People's Sanitary Barber Shop, which has been conducted at 852 Central Ave. for nearly two years, has branched out and demonstrated the fact that he is striving to provide a place second to none for his patrons. He has leased a commodious store room at 916 Central avenue and when he has put the finishing touches on this place the col- ored people will have a shaving parlor second to none for their convenience and comfort. The new parlor is large and airy, thoroughly renovated, newly painted and calsomined, and has three chairs. Mr. Young employs none but the highest class workmen, and guarantees satisfaction. This shop will not only be sanitary in name but in fact. It is painted in immaculate both from within and without. He will conduct a first class hiring of a barber and a real estate has secured again a real live business concern. Mr. Young deserves great credit for his effort to furnish the people a real first class barber shop and will no doubt receive at the hands of the public due consideration for his effort to provide an up to date shop in this section. Mr. Young is progressive and one of our young men of sterling worth who is ambitious along business lines and highly deserving of success. REV. B. C. ROBESON COMES BACK TO LOS ANGELES The A. M. E. Zion Conference closed another history making session at Oakland last week. But perhaps the most interesting bit of information for Los Angeles people coming from this great organization is the news of the return of Rev. B. C. Robeson for another conference year to the A. M. E. Zion church at Pico and Paloma. Since the close of the conference last week Rev. Robeson has been visiting points in Washington and Oregon in company with the Bishop, but will reach the city in time to preach at the services Sunday at Zion The California Eagle in accord with the members of the A. M. E. Zion church and the citizens at large, who within the past year have learned to keenly appreciate this splendid Christian gentleman, who in so short a time has become a radiating spirit for religious and moral uplift in this community, are hearty in their thanks to the conference and the Bishop for returning Rev. Robeson for another term. FLASHED OVER THE WIRES THIS MORNING Born to Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Washington of Bakersfield, a bouring boy who will in the future rule the destiny of the Washington household. The mother is reported as doing nicely under the care of her mother, Mrs. Anna Elgin of this city, who was present for the happy event. A host of friends in this city and over the state extend to this popular couple, happy congratulations. Mrs. J. R. Kinzy of 2176 East 10th St, and her ward, Barbara Alexander, left for Oakland, Cal., Sunday night on the Saint, on account of the death of her ward's mother, Mrs. Hattie Walsh Alexander, which occurred Sunday morning. URATION "THE YOUNG BIBLE OF TO- DAY" By Miss Drucilla Polk, a Recent Graduate of Biggers' Business As the young people are today, so will be the race a generation hence. The young people of today will be the men and women, the teachers and parents of the future generation. Then what kind of men and women, what kind of parents and teachers, will they be? That depends upon what the men and women, and the teachers and parents of today are doing for them, for what they are doing and what they are not doing will determine the character and conduct of the race of tomorrow. One generation sows the seed of character and conduct, of success and failure, and the succeeding generation reaps the harvest. In studying the qualities of the young people of today, we find them very different in many ways from those of a generation or two ago. Those of today are better informed and their ideas are broader than those of the young people of earlier times; on the other hand, however, we find them less respectful to the views of their elders, and less influenced by religious principles. The young people of the past generation or two were subservient to the will of their elders, and showed great respect for them. It was considered very impolite for young people to occupy points or places of vantage in public gatherings, or, otherwise, to take precedence over the older ones. But it is nothing unusual, nowadays, to see the younger people given the perference. Older people are often seen standing in an audience, while the younger ones are seated. The younger people of today are less refined, than those of earlier times. The use of slang and certain profane expressions, have grown to be a common practice among both the older and younger boys and girls, even in the better social classes. We find a tendency to frivolity and pet-tishness, a lack of definite standards of conduct and of right values. We find also a lack of implicitity in their manner of dressing, in fact, we are living in an extravagant age. Radical changes, in fashions and immodest dress, are the order of the day. The parents are partly responsible for this condition, as they seem to be losing the habit of instilling good principles into the daily lives of the girls and boys. No doubt, the modern factory system is also responsible for some of the evils just mentioned, wherein many of the young are forced only too soon, to earn a livelihood. Their factory associations are not conducive to the cultivation of good principles. In many instances numbers of our workings girls, and boys, are lost in the modern unrest. The anxiety to keep up with the fashions, the small pittance of salary paid by the factories, only forces them farther into the great whirl. This is the dark side of the present social condition. The bright side shows the young people of today to have self-poise, self-reliance and efficient personality. Happy the girls or boys who have efficient personality; for to them, nothing is impossible of attainment; efficient personality is the magnetic human force which attracts and holds and strengthens all with whom it comes in contact, and leaves each one, at the close of day better and stronger in life's battle than when he arose. The contrast between the opportunities of the young people of today and those of an earlier generation, may be furnished by comparing their opportunities with the meager advantages enjoyed by such a man as Abraham Lincoln, who, from a humble beginning, rose to the sublime heights of statesmanship. This great man used to walk five or ten miles to get a book, which he would read by a pinkknot in front of an open fireplace. He was one of the greatest statesmen of our country, and in him we see an example of what has, again and again, proved to us that most of our greatest men have risen from the masses of the people. The young people of today might well take him as an inspiration and guide for their own lives. This great man had none of the advantages furnished by the present time, to the young, yet he became great. The young people of today have every modern advantage of universal education; lecture courses, instruction by moving pictures, and our great public libraries, than which can be found no greater incentive to endeavor, yet few haey the ambition to make use of these advantages and strive to make themselves real value to the world. Thus, I have shown the disadvantage of the past, by which, however, the present generation does not always profit. It is now the duty of the young people of today to show their appreciation of the advantage which they have, by building the ladder of right endeavor upon which they may climb, to the greatest heights of achievement. Then we must forget the part which the na THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 34 making possible these ideal achievements of the young. Home training is responsible for the moulding of the characters of the young people. There should be impressed upon their minds in every deed and every act, the ideals of right living. They should be taught to practice the greatest of all precepts, "Do unto others as you would have them to do unto you." Then, let us have the co-operation of the teachers with the parents. It is the duty of both to instill into the minds of the young people, the familiar lines of Longjellow, "Not enjoyment and not sorrow in our distined end our way, but to act that each tomorrow finds us farther than today." In conclusion, then, we suggest that the young people of today follow the code of successful workers: "I will respect all useful workers, and be courteous to the workers, I will know my work and have ambition to do it well; I will take the initiative and develop the executive ability; I will be honest and truthful, I will educate myself into strength and character; I will be faithful to my work; I will be loyal; I will be a lady or a gentleman; the world does not owe me a living, but I am proud to make a good living for myself." RECEPTION TENDERED REV. AND MRS. J. LOGAN CRAW On last Tuesday evening, the citizens tendered to Rev. and Mrs. J. Logan Craw a public reception in token of the high esteem in which they are held by the citizens of this community. It was a thoroughly democratic affair and Messrs. Hicks and Bartlett, the prime movers of the arrangement, are entitled to unstinted praise for the magnificent manner in which they carried out the duty to which they had been assigned. A splendid program of short addresses intermingled with vocal and instrumental selections was rendered, each speaker showered econiums on both the genial pastor and his estimable wife. The addresses were delivered by the following: On behalf of the Allen Aid Society and S. S. Mrs. Isadore-Stewart; the Choir, Mr. T. Norris; the Press, Mrs. J. B. Bass; instrumental selection, Mr. John Gray; the Methodist Ministers, Dr. Price; violin selection, Mrs. S. P. Dones; the women of the church, Mrs. Tucker; the citizens, Mr. J. B. Bass, Pasadena, Dr. Taylor. Dr. and Mrs. Craw responded in glowing terms, pledging their allegiance to the church, declaring that they intended working even harder his conference year, to the end that they may not only liquidate the church debt, but also beautify it. THE ELOQUENT AND PATRIOTIC ORATION DELIVERED BY CHIEF JUSTICE OF THE SUPREME COURT OF ILLINOIS AT THE OFFICIAL FAREWELL GATHERING IN HONOR OF THE EIGHTH ILLINOIS INFANTRY, COL. FRANKLIN A. DENISON, COMMANDING. (From: the Broad Axe) Last week, extracts were printed in these columns from the most eloquently, sound and logical oration delivered by the Hon. Orin N. Carter, chief justice of the supreme court of Illinois, at the recent farewell gathering in honor of the Eighth Illinois Infantry, Cod. Franklin A. Denison, commanding, on the lake front, on which occasion, more than twenty thousand people were present and joined in the farewell exercises. The oration by the Hon. Chief Justice being very remarkable in every way and full of that broad spirit of true Americanism; that we take great pleasure in producing it in full in these columns which follows: "We are gathered here this evening to show our belief in you. There are now only two classes of citizens in this country. Those who are for America and those who are against it—those who are loyal and those who are disloyal. In these days those who are against the government should be placed in the latter class. There is never any difficulty in classifying the Colored people. Since the emancipation of that race they have always been for the government; always loyal. If there is any race to whom the word loyalty can be properly applied it is the Colored race. The Black man is never false to a friend; never false to a principle; never false to his country and never false to his God. He is never a hypocrite, he is always what he seems to be. He is ever a brave soldier but never a good detective. "The Black people have made wonderful progress in the last fifty years in this country; perhaps the most wonderful progress, in every line of civilization that any race has ever made in the same length of time. But they are on trial now perhaps more than at any other time in their history. This regiment has an opportunity of doing a service for the Colored race such as no other like body of men has ever had for any race. We are all aware why the race is on trial. Ordinarily during these great upheavals and race conflicts both races are (Continued on page 6) What the Churches are Doing What the Churc THE PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST Cor. 18th and Paloma Sts.

Logan Craw Monday night, Oct. 1, at the home of Mrs. Sallie Wilson, 513 E. 8th street, at 8 o'clock, and are now domiciled in their beautiful home at Watts. Mr. James Busby, the industrious son of our pioneer citizen, Henry Busby of Clanton street, was married at the parsonage by Rev. J. Logan Craw, to Mrs. Jacqueline McClendon of San Francisco, at 7 o'clock Wednesday evening, Oct. 3. They are dwelling for a short time at 726 Clanton street' but will soon be at home in her own residence at 15th and San Pedro streets. Cupid seems to be busy among the younger set and weddings are the order of the day. A marriage which came as a surprise to many of their friends was solemnized on Tuesday evening at St Phillip's Parish House, when Miss Ruby E. Walker became the bride of Mr. Carl L. Hanley. The bride was charmingly gowned in gray satin and was attended by her twin sister, Miss Ruth Walker. The service was read by Father W. T. Cleghorn in the presence of only the members of the immediate family. Mrs. Hanley is the accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Walker of 1101 Chinton St. She is a graduate of Western University where the romance which culminated so happily on Tuesday evening began. Mr. Hanley is also a graduate of Western University and is well known throughout the cast as a basso. Mr. and Mrs. Hanley will reside for the present at 945 E. 11th St. Mrs. P. E. Alexander of East 8th street reached the city Sunday Sept. 30, after a three months' visit in the northern part of the State. She reports an exceedingly pleasant trip. ANNIVERSARY SURPRISES TO REV. S. E. EDWARDS REV. S. E. EDWARDS The home of Rev. and Mrs. S. E. Edwards, 1540 East 53rd street, was lighted up with much joy and great pleasure Saturday evening, Sept. 29, the occasion being the birthday of Rev. S. E. Edwards. The entire affair was a surprise given him by his faithful wife and friends. He as usual was on duty Saturday evening when to his surprise two men with an auto came and told him that he was wanted at home at once. Although confused he readily consented to go. On their arrival he found his home lighted up from every room, and scores of young and old friends awaiting to greet him. To say the least, Rev. Edwards was much disconcerted over the affair, but soon got himself together and became one of the happy party. The many presents were conspicuously showered upon him in such a way that it will be long remembered. Thus the time was passed away in a most happy vein. Ice cream and cake was enjoyed by all and no one was so happy as Rev. Edwards. Many useful articles were presented to him by his friends. The Furlong Tract was represented by Mrs. Lueus, Mr. J. W. Wesley, president of the B. and I association, Mrs. M. Draper, Mrs. Lulu Roberts and others, presented a purse. Watts was represented by Miss Grace Owens and Miss Comfort, who also presented some useful tokens including a purse. Miss Grace Owens, in a few well chosen words, said the little seeds of usefulness, sourd by Rev. S. E. Edwards when he organized and pastored the A. M. E. church at Watts, are destined to grow into great proportions. Rev. J. W. Price and wife were numbered among the many friends with nice and useful tokens. Rev. Price is always ready to help make others happy. Masters Smith and Robert McLin the two little grand sons of Rev. and Mrs. Edwards, represented friends of Hollywood, who presented some serviceable articles. Space forbids more, but the occasion will long be remembered by all that were present. Mrs. Bertha Turner of 920 Worcester St. Pasadena, was a charming hostess on Monday evening when she gave a delightful dinner in honor of Mesdames L. Robinson, E. Lewis and Misses B. King and L. Thompson, all of New York. The table was a dream of perfect beauty and the dainty table appointments of silver candelabras and silver baskets filled with choice pink nodding rose buds and large bows of delicate pink ribbon was a sight too beautiful to have been true, the transformation being so effective that those present thought of only fairy land where the fairies fitted here and there and the five course dinner was enjoyed to each heart's content and was one that willinger long in the memory of those bid to sup with such charming visitors as these ladies from New York. Besides the hostess and her husband the following were the dinner guests: Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Corbin, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. D. Conner, Mesdames Nolie Murray, Maude Stallings and Miss Estelle Everett. BREAKS RECORD FOR MOUN- TAIN CLIMBING On the occasion of the visit of G. W. Caldwell with friends to Mt. Lowe last Sunday, Miss Fern broke the record for ladies' mountain climbing in company with E. W. D. Reece, Miss Ruby and Prince-Taber in hiking parties, they reached the summit of Mt. Lowe in 1 hour and 38 minutes, with Miss Ruby and Prince a close second. The previous record is two hours. See Mt. Lowe Daily Record. ELABORA RECEPTION HON ORING REV. AND MRS. CRAW On Tuesday evening, Sept. 24, at the beautiful residence of Mr. and Mrs. Chas, Martinez, 2724 Glassell St. a reception was given in honor of Rev. and Mrs. J. Logan Craw, it was a very beautiful and pretentious affair. The home was beautifully decorated for the occasion and the host and hostess spared no pains in seeing that everyone enjoyed the occasion to the utmost. Miss Tillie Crawford and Mrs. J.

Burns, under the management of Mrs. Grant Smith, Mrs. John Prayer, Mrs. Ray Derry and Mrs. M. Millard. Delicious refreshments were served and an enjoyable evening was spent. THE ALLEN ALLENWORTH CLUB ENTERTAINS The pretty home of Mrs. J. W. Jones of Wall St. was charmingly decorated last Wednesday afternoon for the reception of the regular meeting of the Allen Allensworth club. At the close of the business session a splendid literary program was rendered which included a timely address on "Club Needs." by First State Vice-President, Mrs. Lulu Slaughter. Upon this occasion the club also welcomed home Mrs. J. B. Bass, one of its members. Mrs. Hilda Brawley, wife of Dean Brawley of Marchhouse College, Atlanta, and daughter of Dr. and Mrs. H. D. Proud of this city was tendered an informal reception last Thursday evening at the home of her parents East 48th Place, by the members of the Second Baptist Church.

The great gathering enjoyed musical selections rendered by Miss Ellen Prowd and Mrs. Brawley and the reading of an original poem entitled "The Titanic" by Miss Lillian Prowd. It was an enjoyable occasion for all present. Mrs. Pauline Hubert, who has been visiting her father, at San Diego, for the past few weeks, returned to her home, in this city, last Saturday.

Not alone along lines as suggested in our editorial as to the factory proposition must we work to solve the problems which confront us.

Some time ago we called attention to the fact that we had in our city a member of the race who is one of the best candy makers in the United States, and that this same man is a wholesaler in this city. He is endeavoring to establish a business worth while not only for himself but that he may employ numbers of men, women, etc. Now the Eagle is strong for the success of this particular business and all who stand for progress we verily believe are with us when we say that it is our duty to get behind this man and do our bit that his establishment may thrive and grow to the end that another opening shall be made for our people in the mercantile world. Shut out on account of prejudice from a chance in other factories which make the candies which we eat, it is self evident we must make openings for ourselves, and to do this we must stand like a solid wall back of those who will take the lead in establishing such institutions as these. As a beginner let every reader of this article from this time on begin to insist that your dealer handles Ramsey's goods, not because it is Ramsey, but because he makes as good and better candies than any other concern and his prices are as good or better than those quoted by white candy factories, who on account of prejudice will not give you a chance to learn the trade at their plants or to even work in them. The very best you get from these same concerns is to buy and eat their goods. Now we have some of our very own merchants who cater to their own people for their trade who have not as yet awakened to the necessity of giving a candy factory conducted by their own race their support. As they have failed to do this it is up to the PEOPLE to give them a reminder that if they expect your support they must carry Ramsey's candies. Now this is the time to demonstrate our real ability for concentration of effort and why not get together and help in the movement which after all is simply helping ourelves.

Then I started using Dr. Miles' Nervine and the trouble vanished completely and I felt well and active once more." HENRY FARNHAM, Spring Valley, Minn. Genuine Surprise By Members of Masonic Fraternity When J. H. Shackleford called on P. E. Alexander, last Monday evening, and asked him to accompany some of the lodge members to Santa Monica to look after serious Masonic business there, Mr. Alexander had no idea what was in store. In Mr. Shackleford's car, with Messes Thos. Skinner, Paul Brown and J. H. Williamham, Mr. Alexander started for the beach, stopping on the way at People's Independent Church where it was reported a wedding was in progress. It was suggested that the party go in, but Mr. Alexander refused, saying it would make them late getting to the beach. On looking through the window, however, and seeing A. J. Roberts, who has been confined to his home for some M. B. P. E. Alexander months, on account of his blindness, he went down to greet him and was seized by his friends who bound him with ropes and administered "tokens of regard," one for each of the 57 years of his life. Mr. Alexander was then escorted to the seat of honor at the beautiful and artistically arranged tables where about twenty Masonic brothers were gathered, and then it dawned on him that the affair might possibly be a birthday surprise. A delicious repast was served by Mesdames J. H. Shackleford, Thos. Skinner, Grant Smith and Weir. Mr. Jas.

On behalf of the brothers, Mr. Eugene Walker in a cordial way, thanked the ladies for their part in the preparation for the banquet. "One of the biggest surprises of the evening came when telegrams of congratulations were read from Grand Master T. A. Harris and Mr. Wallace Clark who were obliged to be in Long Beach on business, and one purporting to be from President Woodrow Wilson at Washington, congratulating Mr. Alexander on his 67th birthday.

Eloquent Oration race clashes the Colored race has been. misunderstood and misjudged. I think that is true not only of the troubles in this state but in the south- ern states, “In weighing and considering the terrible tragedy that has taken place receiftly at Houston, Texas, I wish the nublic coud remember that it was this suine 24th regiment of Colored regulars that did such commendable work in the army's recent advance into Mexico. Not only that but I wish the public would remember that it was this ‘same regiment that fur- nished during the Spanish-Cuban was an example of possibly the bravest ‘deed that men have performed in our ‘history. General Burt of the regular army has given us this account in a lecture that he gave afew years ago it Boston as to the Colored race: ‘In Cuba aiter the battle of Santiago the yellow fever broke out among the white troops and many of them were stricken with that dread disease; reg- ular nurses could not be obtained to care for them. The Colonel of this same 24th Black regiment received a request for 60 Colored men to act a nurses. Realizing the peculiar work that, was required he ‘alled. he en- tire iregiment to the parade ground and told them-what was needed; that ‘he wanted 60 men to replace the reg- ular hospital nurses who had been at tacked by yellow fever, a number of whom had died..and he said to them, "Lam not going. to command any man to undertake the work, but Iam -xoing to call for volunteers,” and then said. “Soldiers of-the 24th, I want 60 volunieers of this regiment to nurse your white comrades who are suffer- ing with yellow fever. Volunteers, three paces to the front, March.” And every man in that regiment stepped to the front! But that is not all. Word came to the Colonel shortly thereafter that one-half of the men that had volunteered and been sent to nurse had been stricken down with yellow. fever and that a’ number of them had died. More nurses were wanted. Again the Colonel called out the entire regiment of Colored sol- dieds. Again he told them what had happened, and again he. commanded: “Volunteers, three paces to the front, ‘March, ” and again every man in line ‘stepped to the front. This is not only an example of bravery but of loyalty in the highest sense of the term. Much greater courage was re- quired for these black men to volun- teer fof that service than is required to be exercised at the batle front—in the trenches, or in a charge. “Ii I could say a personal ‘word to you soldier boys tonight that you would carry away with you I would say that under all circumstances, no matter what the provocation, be’ pa- tient and self-controlled. If you obey your officers 1 know you will do the Fight thing. T know most of these men that are leading you, Some of them have “been my warm personal friends for years, No braver soldiers or more courteous gentlemen can be found, If you follow their leadership, you cannot go wrong. If you go o the south. as now seems ceftain, to the, stene of this unfortunate tragedy in your race's history be sure that you heat yourselves as freemen and soldiers ‘of this great Republic no matter what is said or done to you. Be sure that you are never the ag- gressor. no matter how trying the situation. Keep in your mind always that! old biblical proverb that ‘he that ruleth his spirit is better than he that taketh.a city.” We know if you cross, the water to help in this great con- flict for the right of people to gov- ern themselves that you will acquit yourselves ‘bravely and well, but -we want and expect you to acquit your- selves in that manner in every posi- tion you may be placed. You are go- ing to assist in bringing about a peace that we hope may endure for centur- ies to come; an ignoble, cowardly or dishonorable, peace is far worse than a just war; dnd if ever a war was en- tered into by this people for a just cause this is the one. If you doubt it. read and study with care the great announcement just made by our pres- ident. I deem it most fitting, in this connection to ask you to remember what the emancipator of your race, Lincoln said, during the great strug- gle to give 'you your freedom. He wrote in 1863: ‘Peace does not appear so distant as it did. I hope it will come soon, and come to stay, and so come jas to be worth the keeping in all future“time. It will then have been proved that among freemen there can be no successful appeal from the ballot to the bullet, and that they who take such appeal are sure to lose their case and pay the cost. And therq will be some black men who can Femember that with silent tongue, and clinched teeth, and steady eyé, and well poised bayonet, they have helped mankind to this’ great consummation; while I fear there will be some white ones unable to forget that with malignant heart and deceit- ful speech they have striven to hinder it” ai THE LEGEND OF THE LEGEND OF THE LEGEND Personal---PROF.

The Southern states, and especially Texas, urged thereto by the riots in Houston, are demanding that Negro soldiers of the United States shall not be held in training camps or used elsewhere south of Mason and Dixon's line. The reason alleged is that such outbreaks as occurred at Houston are likely to occur again, because the Negro troopers from the North resent the social and economic restrictions which are enforced against the race through the South. But this is, of course, the real heart of the whole question: Soldiers of the United States ought all to be equally held under the striotest discipline, but otherwise they are all on an exulity. An acknowledgment by the United States Government that any class among them is of inferi raste, to be kept apart and confined to certain sections of the country, would be resented as earnestly in the North as it is demanded in the South. To make this distinction would be to open questions which —so far as this nation is concerned were settled, in theory at least, by the outcome of the war for the Union. Our Negro soldiers have a record for valor unsurpassed by that of any other distinct group in the National Army. We have no word but of blame for the failure in discipline which made the Houston riots possible, but we believe that these riots would have been impossible had the citizens of Texas shown that respect and honor for the uniform of the United States which is becoming in all citizens. The proposal that the Negro troopers shall be trained in France because neither the South nor the North desires their company is a proposal to take the spirit out of this large and necessary section of our defenders. We hope that the soldiers who broke out of bounds in the Texas camp will be fairly tried, and if found guilty, justly punished. We sympathize sincerely with the families of the wounded men in Houston. But the real lesson of this painful incident is that of considerate treatment for the soldier of the nation in whatever section he may be encamped. THE LIBERTY LOAN BY W. D. McAdoo, Secretary of the Treasury. For the purpose of equipping with arms, clothing and food our gallant soldiers who have been called to the field; maintaining our navy and our valiant tars upon the high seas; providing the necessary means to pay the wages of our soldiers and, if the bill now pending in the Congress passes, the monthly allowances for the support of their dependent families and to supply them with life insurance; constructing a great fleet of merchant vessels to maintain the line of communication with our brave troops in France, and to keep our commerce afloat upon the high seas in defiance of the German Kaisei and his submarines; creating a great fleet of aeroplanes, which will give complete supremacy in the air to the United States and the brave nations fighting with us against the German military menace, and for other necessary war purposes— The Congress of the United States has authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to sell to the people of the United States bearing four per cent interest, with valuable tax exemptions, and convertible under certain conditions into other issues of United States bonds that may be authorized by the Congress. The official circular of the Treasury Department gives full details. There is now offered to the American people a new issue of $3,000,000,000 of bonds to be known as the 'Second Liberty Loan.' They will be issued in such denominations and upon such terms that every patriotic citizen will have an opportunity to assist the Government by lending his money upon the security of a United States Government bond. Patriotic Week Celebration Auspices of All-American League Auditorium of the City Violet Playgrounds Cor. Mateo and Violet Sts. SATURDAY EVENING, Oct. 6, 1917 The following program will be rendered. Come one, come all: "The Red, White and Blue" ..... Led by Mrs. H. D. Greer "Woman's Status in the Present Conflict" ..... Mrs. C. A. Spear-Bass Baritone Solo ..... S. S. R. S. Stewart, Greatest Singer on the Coast Resolutions ..... Presented by Rev. V. M. Cole "The All-American League". Song written and sung by Mr. D. Baker Adjournment and Refreshments. Refreshments will be served free. It is essential to the success of the war and to the support of our gallant troops that these loans shall not only be subscribed, but over-subscribed. No one is asked to donate or give his money to the Government; but everyone is asked to lend his money to the Governmen. The loans will be repaid with interest at the rate of four per cent per annum. A Government bond is the safest investment in the world; it is as good as currency, and it better, because the Government bond bears interest and currency does not. No other investment compares with it for safety, ready convertibility into cash, and unquestioned availability as collateral security for loans in any bank in the United States. ORDER YOUR EXTRA COPIES IN TIME The story of the Houston riot as gathered in person by our managing editor, now running in this paper will be concluded in our next issue. Its intense interest reaches its climax in that issue. Owing to the great demand for these papers we are urging the churches, organizations and individuals to get their orders in before next Friday so that we may be able to accommodate everybody. Our out of town correspondents and patrons can all be accommodated to as many copies as desired but get your orders in by the time indicated above. State Missionaries On to Greater Service. BY MRS. IDA H. FORD (Cor. Sec. of the State Convention.) The Executive Board of the W. H. and F. M. Convention Auxiliary to the California Baptist State Convention, met with their president, Mrs. A. E. Webber, Friday September 28. The workers, all filled with that usual missionary spirit, willing and ready to work, listened to the many letters from over the field, read by the corresponding secretary. The letters were all full of encouragement and gave inspiration to all. The Board accepted the recommendation of considering two young consecrated women to train them for social service and field missionary work. One in Oakland, one in San Diego. Our convention is looking forward to the erection of an Industrial school for the orphans of our State. The school to be located in Los Angeles. The appointment of our president, Mrs. A. E. Webber, as State Director of California; Mrs. Mary A. Gaither, president of the Northern Convention, as our Trustee; Mrs. Lillie L. Moore, president of the Southern District Convention, as Board Member—all to work with the National Baptist Auxiliary—will broaden our work, open to us many avenues of greater work; get better acquainted with every Baptist family—arousing them to greater service—thus reminding us of our duty set forth in the Great Commission: "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature." Yours for greater service, to know more of the working powers and to encourage all. I remain yours, MRS. IDA HATTIE FORD, State,Cor. Sec'y.
