Lincoln and Douglass Day Sunday at the Forum ESTABLISHED 1879 LADING RACE JOURNAL HE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE MAIN 1594 THAT PATRIOTIC BALL it seems passing strange that in a bee like this, when we are fighting freedom and progress, when we shedding the best blood of the nation to usher in a day of peace and, when we are calling for sacrifice her sacrifice, that the fires of brutality, selfishness and unrightnessiness be banked, that our vision should come so dimmed that we lose sight those forces in whose strength vivis is found. Trying to whip theiser, trying to defeat the devil, we the devil's tool to tight him with to wonder we groan and wait. When patriotism is founded on a extrot it means an omnious day has come. When thrift depends upon one's ing the bumble hung, a sad hour for the nation has arrived. patriotism and thrift are harder virtues than we seem to think. They breathe the a purer nosphere than a dance hall, they well in a loftier sphere. Do you mean to say that with Oldory assailed by toes within and thout the only way my service can gained is by hurting me to some indig under patriotic fraternity. Is possible that when my country is lying for men, strong men, cleanen, to fight and it need to die, that who stay at home am so insensible their and my country needs that co-operation can only be gotten with an opportunity to start on the ink of rum? It is an insult to my patriotism, a travesty upon my sense of duty. There are others in the time ship. Under the cause of thirtieth you ask me to support a dance. At the sirenic all of an unbounded patriotism you ask me to take my sister and bring her into contact with every Team, Rick and Harry will put down city cents in the name of democracy. This is not right. The motive I do not question, but the method is still out of question. I speak for thousands in this city from you have asked to disregard their church vows, which are sacred in the sight of God. I speak for many you tempt to leave the path of Christian duty. We are loyal patriots and anxious to help our country, but not in that way. You have no right to erect a barrier which prohibits our participation in any parity movement. You can slim-to-sheable guess that's right, all you please. I don't. If that is patriotism, I am not patriotic. If that is the royal road to thrift, I would rather put a pendon, and be a spendid thrift. Why couldn't you have a patriotic mass meeting and extend the "Father of our Country" invite all citizens to be present, and then have this and other causes presented in a legitimate way? When our boys come marching home with married limbs and carried bodies, I want it never to be said that my help for them could only be gained through a dance. "I have heard a lot about gunshow leadership recently, and have wondered what it meant. Two or three more of these balls, patriotic balls, and I will understand perfectly Leon, but remember "you are simply ending your influence to uphold the almost truth, if you want to get a crowd of colored folks have a breakdown." Stop rocking the boat of lies, we were book on earth with If Jesus were back on earth with men, He would not preach today. Until He had made Him a scourge and again We would drive the defenders away REV. B. C. ROBESON THEATER OPENS UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT Program to Consist of the Best Feature Films Obtainable The New Angels Theater opened under new management Friday, February 15, with the Fox program. The Fox program consists of Theda Bara, William Farnum, Voleka Surati, George Walsh and other famous stars whose artistic portrayals of the characters of famous plays are too well known to need mention in these columns. The management of the theater assures us that only the finest and best photoplayms with added attractions from time to time will be shown. The show will last from two to two and one-half hours and will commence at 2:30 every afternoon and run continuously until 10:30 at night. The show will be changed entirely every day. We predict a very successful future for the new management. AT BEST The funeral service over the remains of Madame Ella J. Hughley was conducted at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church last Saturday at 1 o'clock p. m., in keeping with the life of the deceased. Musical numbers were rendered by the leading musical talent of the city, who had been closely associated with her. It was indeed a pathetic occasion, in which many heart rending scenes were enacted. Rev. J. D. Gordon of the Tabernacle Baptist Church conducted the exercises, the big Mount Zion Church was filled to its utmost capacity. Mt Zion choir furnished the music, after which Rev. J. C. Anderson offered prayer. The scripture lesson was read by Rev. A. P. Shaw, Prof. C. A. Biggers read the obituary, which disclosed the fact that Madame Hughley was born in Dallas, Tex., Mach I, 1889, of Christian parents, educated at Bishop Colleene at Marshall, Tex. Married in 1911 to David E. Hughley and shortly thereafter came to Los The California Eagle Madame Hughley was best known in the musical world, having exemplified a wonderful talent as a vocalist. She at the age of 7 years gave forth the fact of her talent, which later gained her fame. She excelled in operatic selections. She was trained under some of the leading musicians of the west. Previous to her taking all she had planned to start special training under Signor Constantino, director of the California Temple of Art. Mrs. S. P. Dones rendered a violin solo, Miss Egnae Wilmie, accompanist. "Mr. C. P. Dones read the resolution on behalf of the choir and church. Mrs Johnson read the resolution on behalf of the Auxiliary. Prof W. T Wilkin played, by request of the deceased, a piano solo "Flee as a Bird to your Mountains," with his own arrangement Mrs. Boyd Ford sang a solo. The Harris Sisters Quartette sang "Steal Away to Jesus." Rev E. H. Davis, pastor of Mt. Zion Church, then delivered the funeral eulogy, which was indeed a splendid effort. The pastor had known Madame Hughley for many years, and spoke beautifully of her high Christian character and her unselfish devotion for others. At the conclusion of the sermon, Rev J. D Gordon made some timely remarks of the great service Mrs Hulley was to the community, and the large assemblage were permitted to take the last look at the deceased. The beautiful castle was bid behind a huge box of flowers which had been sent by loving friends. After all had passed the mineral cortex again resumed its magnificent beauty. Conectery where the cervical sadrires were sane, and the body of Madame Hulley was commenced back to Mother Earth. She is survived by her husband and infant child, a sister and father in Texas and a sister in England, who mount her loss. "The sun is on the rolling air, Lilac will be on the waters tran- dition will be on the rising sun Milk in the setting thou art art Milk in shall come be known In the memory of the sermon's aim. The following are the resolutions from Mr Zion Baptist Church and church, read by C. R. Dupas on last Saturday. In the mississippi of life, as we sail on our life's impetuous sea, life trail and treasury, spells from time to time many changes, wrought by Providence. We are all passengers from time to time to eternity, and our life is an armour between two sterilities: we move onward, every now and then one of our fellow comrades, summon by the quick messenger, the angel of death, makes an earlier entrance into that haven of rest, leaving his fellow comrades to mourn his departure, and the glory expresses the sadness of his absence from the rank of human life, our loss, yet heaven's gain. Whereas in the course and trend of human events and in the onward march of the great Christian army, we are Christian comrades, marching and fighting in the Christian army on the earth, sides of life and that from our ranks one of our Christian soldiers and faithful co-workers in the person of our dear sister, Miss Ella J. Hughley has been summoned by the death angel to answer to the toll call in that land of rest where parting is no more and peace passes the understanding to everlasting life. A solitary and sympathetic duty is hereby involved upon us as church co-workers' and choir associates of this our good pastor, Sister Mine Hughley, to express a word in commendation to her work and worth among us, and to wish confidence to her beloved husband, Prather David H. Hughley, who too has been ever faithful and loyal in the performance of Christian duties. We have from time to time been pleasantly and agreeably associated with Sister Hughley, and our Christian association have found her faithful and her works pritable among us. Sister Hughley sing as our leading soprano; and when away from us, absent for any cause, she was greatly missed by the choir by the church and congregation. And now we feel that her constant vacancy in our church can only be filled by the spirit of consolation to know that she has joined the heavenly choir, and is now singing praises to Him that holds the destiny of this our choir and each of us in His hands. In a general review of the works and faithful works of dear Mine Hughley, we catch an inspiration to inspire us to make stronger our endeavor to do our duty in all Christian vocations, whereby we might again, when we are called from labor to reward, join with her in that better world, and sing the great anthems set to the tune of heaven's instruments, directed by Christ Himself. To her dearly beloved husband, we sympathize with and for you; and yet, in our realization that God doeth all things well, we cite you to the Savior. He will comfort those who mourn. Therefore, be it resolved that these our last expressions touching upon the life and death of dear Sister Hughley, be solemnly and sincerely recorded indelibly upon the hearts of each and every one, whereby we may be registered as witnesses to the good life she lived and the safe death she died. San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland D. R. H. Resolved that a copy of these resolutions be filed on the church records; that a copy be sent to the various newspapers of the city; also a copy forwarded to the bereaved family. Respectfully submitted. COMMITTEE: MRS. LOMAN M. ALBRITTON, Chairman. MR. CLAUD V. PITTS. MRS. E. MURRAY. C. A. BIGGERS, Secretary. CHAS. E. DONES. FREDERICK ROLAND W. HAYES OF BOSTON, MASS., IN RECITAL IN LOS ANGELES For a number of years Mr. Roland W. Hayes knows, throughout the length and breadth of this country, as one of the greatest tempers, this century, dedicated the largest congregations and music festivals in Boston and all New England with his melodious voice. Los Angeles and California has been held inward for the coming of Mr. Hayes for a goodly number of years, and a few weeks ago when Someimer Truth Club members announced that they would present Mr. Hayes in recital, Debb Hirth, at Blanchard Hall, great anticipation was at once palpable, among the musical lovers, and other folk of the city and even from Baker-sheld upon this occasion to hear Mr. Hayes. Monday evening, at seven o'clock the ball was comfortably packed and until time-stream of back persons crowded the vestibule committing their ears and fingers with the hope of hearing and seeing the great singer. It was the writers privilege to hear Mr. Hayes some years past, and at that time we considered him the best we had ever heard. On Monday evening, even though the artist did not appear abrupt as we had last seen him, we could detect an change for the worse in his voice. Perhaps the first point of advantage in Mr. Hayes as a true artist is his pleasing and uninteractive personality. His art criticism is good and his toneage melodious, produced a striking soul touch upon his hearters. The two renditions from Italian operas were such fine sympathetic interpretations of the spirit of the Italian people that even though, a very few people present understood the language, all could but appreciate the paths breathed through the song by the singer. Mr. Hayes' selections from Blurleigh's Negro Spirituals and S. Coleridge Taylor, brought down the house in wild applause. Near the close of the program, Mrs. Louise Williams, president of Sojourner Truth Club, appeared on the rostrum leading an elderly sweet-faced little lady whom she in beating terms introduced as the great artist's mother. In acknowledging a basket of fragrant Cecil Bruner roses, presented by the Club, Mrs. Hayes only bowed to the great audience which stood to receive her. Those who assisted Mr. Hayes on the program were: Miss Maymee Wiley Lowe, mezzo-soprano; Owen Troy, violinist, who greatly pleased with three numbers, and Mrs. Estelle Roberts-Saunders, who has long since won her reputation as one of California's best pianists. Mr. Eugene Roberts and two other associates have entered into the Dairy Business in Ensenada and are making remarkable headway. They have more demands for milk than they are able to supply. DIDO THE HERO Dido hastily descended to the room in which the news agents were sleeping, and after a little parlaying, regurned with the keys and a suit of clothes, the property of one of the news boys. Gaining the news stand Dido opened the door and set about changing his sailor's suit for that of the news agent. A wonderful change was made between the appearance of K. DOUGLASS bake the cake, and that of Dido the agent. "My mother trained the young lady on his return, 'You found two remedies, one for the and the other for yourself.'" "My Miss, this preparation takes on according to directions, will cure your nervous headache." "I hope it will make me feel as good as those new clothes make you look, playfully and the little lady." "Not see what a difference clothes make in a night's appearance, 'smilingly be added.'" "But clothes don't make men." "I know they don't but men make clothes and women make trouble about clothes." "Not would inter, sir, that I should not have troubled you for this headache powder, or would you insinuate that I have nothing to do with your clothing?" "Shar be it from me to become an at anything that you might say; I am not well disposed for that; and besides, you have only acted within the province of a woman and that wished. Then an injury would have not to have noticed me or my appearance. The headache powder was not difficult to find; that which I deviously seek, yea, that which my soul wears to know that will be hard to find, and once having found it, its keeping may prove a task beyond me." "My little you are interesting. When have I listened to such deep, intense, pathetic expressions?" continued the young lady. "You speak as one who have grown weary: like unto the reaper who, having grown tired, reposes among the gathered corn. Perhaps you are restive; it may be that you are beginning to think things over; if you are disinterested, if you are tired of the struggle, if the future promises no more than the past, and the present pales at the thoughts of the past and of future, just remember there is a place where you can bury your sorrow; thank God for a garden of love, the heart of a rose, the lift of a song in which we hide our sorrows. "But, little lady," added Dido, "this garden of which you speak, is 'it situated within human reach': is it akin to nature; or, is it simply something romantic, illusive, beyond the limits of real life? Methinks it must be at the brink of a cliff, the edge of a steep, where adventurers are lured only to be hurled from its heights to the fathomless depths below." "Strange! Isn't it?" sweetly whispered the lady. "Strange beyond a doubt, but no more, strange that the fact that you see and I are, here together at this hour, of the night. All other passengers of on board this steamer are asleep. I am growing in the belief that 'truth is stranger than fiction.' Just think! I am up for the same reason that you are; I did not go to bed fearing that something might befall our ship ere morn; you went to bed, but we not sleep, apprehensive of some unforeseen danger. I saw the rats leave our ship tonight, and, according to the superstitious notions of seamen, WILLIAM J. SMITH that's a bad omen. "Ah!" exclaimed the young lady. "I see it. You fear some calamity?" "Yes; Miss, I do," came Dido's reply. "I do also. We must watch and pray. Now, if you will do the watching, I'll do the praying, then whatever befalls our ship, we will have taken hope and consolation in the knowledge that we are not hypocrites, nor are we too presumptuous; for, it must be remembered, that calamity has a wholesome and unifying effect, whether it be the union of two hearts, or the melting of two nations into one, we are forced to accept the consequences. I thank God that it is so. Calamity is God's sythe. Just as the reaper sweeps right and left in his efforts to gather the grain from his fields, even so God wields the sythe of impartial intelligence, and with mathematical precision, separates the sheaves of good from the tares of evil." "You are quite a philosopher," added Dido, who for three minutes stood gazing intently into the face of the young lady, unable to speak or move until she had finished her recitation. "That's neither here nor there with regard to what Captain Jaunka would say should he find you at my door this late hour of night." "There's only one thing that he could do: what would he to fire me, testingly, added Dido. "If he ever discharges you for doing good into others, you tell him you don't want his old job. It's not the right kind of job for you, anyway. My dad could give you a better job than fills." "Who is your father, pray?" "Michael Bradshaw, president of the New York Stock Exchange. His address is 1530 West Thirty-fifth street, New York City, New York." "And what might be your name?" "Why! I must be Miss Bradshaw." "Your given name, I mean." "No, that's not you." Didi leaned over the balcony and discerned the outline of Captain Jaunka as he was mounting the stairs and talking to himself. "Those starvators robbed me of all MARY Little Frances, Curry, Patriotic Genius of the East Ninth St. Public School (Story and picture furnished The California Eagle through the courtesy of Noah D. Thompson of the Editorial Department of the Evening Express and Morning Tribune of Los Angeles—Editor.) Fired by her patriotic zeal to do something for the "Wed Cwass," little Frances Curry, a pupil in the E. Ninth street school, made for her own use a set of knitting needles out of an all-day-sucker stick and a little brown twig from a tree in the school yard. Finding that knitting needles were of little use without yarn and having no money with which to purchase a ball or skein the little patriotic genius hunted up a lot of twine strings and tied them end for end until they resembled the dull gray knitting yarn used by the regular Red Cross knitters. With this rudimentary material she started the all-ab- THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 1 Forum my money. They 'hit me' going, and coming, right and left, and they took it. I'll get even!-Watch me! Dido, fearing that Jaunka might cast his searching glance around for strollers, hastened to hide behind the piano. From there he heard Jaunka swear as he passed: "Iill scale the watery heights of Old Huron tonight, or die in the attempt." Captain Jaunka was five feet in height; he had been in the early part of his life a very strong, stalwart man, but the salt air, winds, rains and storms had beat his robust frame until now it resembles that of a youth. His hair was crisp and red and long; his face that had known every degree of temperature from the Sahara Dessert to the Frozen Hebrides, was as freckled as a speckled wild lily, with bines and wrinkles that seemed to correspond to those on a thermometers. Though sixty years of age, he suffered none of the ills that naturally accompany old age. When only a young man of twenty-five he manned a fishing schooner for one of the fish firms of Glouster, Mass. His education had run neglected, but he had experiences so vast and various that they easily filled the place of an orderly arranged schooling. Jaunka knew nothing of the scientific principles which men employ tb direct the course of a ship on the ocean; geometry was as foreign to him as Latin and Greek. It was only his brute strength and ferocity that enabled him to deify the waters of the deep and to give the devil the dare. He had navigated the principal rivers and lakes of America, and on several occasions had crossed both the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans: but disposition and character Jaunka was true to the type of Caliban: always quick to prescribe punishment for others, but never ready to apologize for wrongs inflicted upon others. To cheat was his delight; he has been known to become brutal to others and many times to inflict wounds upon himself, enraged at being defiled in his attempts to cheat others; evil was his passion; pain, his greatest pleasure; fear, his chief sport, and hate; his greatest moral notion. Jaunka lated his superiors and lived constantly in fear that his inferiors might become his superiors. WILLIAM FRANK sorbing pursuit of knitting a wash cloth for the Red Cross to send to Uncle Sam's boys "somewhere" over there. Upon discovering the zeal and ingenuity of little Frances, Miss Florence Foresburg, her teacher, awarded the little lady with two real knitting needles and a skin of honest to goodness yarn and started her off with a Red Cross pedigree. Other children at the school who show a desire to help the Red Cross will be given knitting needles to use in the place of the hair pins and wire nails which many of them are now using. The boys of the intermediate schools will be taught to make knitting needles in their manual classes and it will be a great accomplishment should every boy and girl learn to either make needles or knit or better still, learn to do both, for little Frances will probably be a dear old "granny" when this nation ceases to feel the effect of the present world conflict. What the Churches are Doing YAOE TWG PHILLIPS CHAPEL C. M. E. Chuurch. Two splendid congregations worshipped at this church on the past Lord's day and the services were of a highly edifying order. The pastor read the general rules of the church at the morning service to a large and appreciative congregation and many were the expressions of helpfulness expressed by those so fortunate as to be present. The pastor also preached at the evening service to the delight of the members and friends present. The pastor will continue the readings of the general rules of the church on next Sunday morning and the members are urged to be out in as large numbers as possible. The choir continues to delight with their beautiful music. The congregational singing continues to delight the hearers. Come and worship with us and we will do you good. The house social given at the home of Mrs. Mary Butler on Essex street, in the interest of club number live was a success and was very much enjoyed. The public is invited to any or all of the services of this church. THE ST. PAUL BAPTIST CHURCH Easter Holt come on the scene, last Sunday with a sermon that will not soon be forgotten. Subject: "Insufficient religion" Theme: "In the wrong bed." Text 1st. 28:20, "For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself upon it and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it." Easter Holt approached this subject through illustrative drawings which took the audience by storm. Offering in his argument, proof that Cults and "modern religion"—so-called" offers no comfort to the weary souls "Fig leaf" religion will not cover the soul. Modern "bed makers" were put in the background and the covering offered by "cults" was discarded for the "blanket of divine grave, woven in the New Testament Mill." All services were well attended. Pastor Holt with his congregation helped Bro. Payne at Furlong Track at three ppm. Returning at 7:30 the pastor preached a sermon that moved all who heard him. Subject: "True Happiness—Where Found." Text: "I shall be satisfied when I awake in his likeness." Shouts and hallelujas and tears of joy told that the spirit was there. Come to see us and hear for yourself. If you are pleased, tell others who know not God. A church for every body—come. BAPTIST MINISTERS' ALLIANCE The Baptist Ministers' Alliance was well attended on last Monday. Koehring from the many pulpits brought inspiration to all present. Rev Holt, pastor of St Paul Baptist Church, being the order of the day, came forward and read a paper, subject: "Three Essential Steps Into the Kingdom of God." That Dr. Holt brought Bible proof in support of his argument is conceded. This paper invited much comment and discussion. Many seem to hang fire on the "Doctrine of Repentence" as authorized by the New Testament. To afford opportunity to discuss more fully this division of of Dr. Holt's paper, Dr. Airline and Dr. W. H. Tilman were assigned to bring papers in support of stand taken by each. This to be heard on the second Monday in March. We hope to have a full house as this is a question of vital importance and is to be handled by men who "know the scriptures." The union is alive as never before. Come and see us. H. D. PROWD, D.D. President R. N. HOLT, D.D. Secretary A. M. E. ZION CHURCH Rev. B. C. Robeson, Pastor Pico and Paloma Sts. FIRST AME ZION- Services last Sunday were very helpful. "Ye Are / My Witnesses" was the text of the sermon preached with power. Several qualifications for witnesses were given, viz. veracity, consistency, knowledge, boldness. Showers of blessings came down, and two young souls—fresh to face life's battles, gave their hearts to the Lord. Tomorrow will be another day rejoicing. Be on hand early. The pastor will preach at both services 11:00 a.m. "What Have I to Fear?" 8:00 p.m. "Will You Do Your Bit?" Thriving—Sunday school. Class for adults. Bethel Church of Christ (Holiness.) 1546 Palomares Street W.M. A.WASHINGTON, Pastor Last Sunday Rev. Washington preached the second sermon of his series of sermons on practical Christian duty.

We invite all persons interested in Bible study to join our Bible band, which meets after afternoon at 3 p. m. Rev. Jones preaches every night at 8 p. m. Come one, come all. SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH MAPLE AVE. Our Sunday school takes on new life, and everyone appears anxious to assist in its highest development. On Sunday morning the annual report will be read, and plans for the banquet to our graduates perfected. At the 11 a.m. service, attention was called to our Lord's plea for brotherly love. "This is my commandment, that ye love oneanother." With the assurance of being recognized as His friends if that command be followed out. Dr. Prowd's text was most significant: "Ye are my friends if." Truly the Lord was in that message. The Young People's meeting was most encouraging. The one thing giving anxiety was the reported illness of First Vice President Brother Coleman, for whose speedy recovery prayer was offered. Dr. Prowd's evening discourse was on the words of Jesus, "These Sayings of Mine." All went away feeling that God had spoken. The church will observe "Father and Son Day," and there will be a tithe rally by the members of the church, according to announcement. "Prove me," saith the Lord, and we are going to obey His word in this well-pleasing sacrifice. There will be special interest at both services on Sunday. Come early and be well seated. WESLEY M. E.

N. P. Greggs, D. D., Pastor. Sunday was another day of blessings at the People's Independent Church. Beginning with Sunday school at 9.30 a. m., and continuing through the morning service, the Christian Endeavor at 6 p. m. and the evening session—all the services bubbled over with spiritual blessing. Pastor Greggs sermons are always practical and very applicable to every day life. Sunday was no exception to this rule. "Chosen of God" was the theme of his discourse in the morning, and in the evening, "The Parable of the Pounds." Both sermons were both impressive and edifying. Prof. Johnson is performing wonderful work as choir director. Both audiences were thrilled to emotion by the excellent music furnished by the choir last Sunday. In response to the solicitation of Mr. U. Birch, some talented friends will assist the choir in a grand Sacred concert next Sunday evening. Come early and secure a good seat.

KINZIE ST. CHICAGO, ILL. preached two strong sermons Sunday morning. Subject, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free."—John 8-32. Dr. Gordon said, in part: They answered him, "We be Abraham's seed and were never in bondage to any man; how sayest thou, we shall be made free?" Jesus answered him: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whoseover committeth sin is the servant of sin. And the servant of sin abideth not in the house for ever; but he Son abideth ever." At the evening service, Dr. Gordon preached to a crowded house. Subject, "The Marriage Supper." His discourse was very encouraging, because he knew whereof he spoke. We were blessed both spiritually and financially. Next Sunday, Feb. 17, our pastor, Dr. Gordon, will speak at both sermons. The public is cordially invited B. F. Anderson, Church Reporte.

M 4144 J. SACRAMENTO NEWS One of the prettiest and most attractive affairs given this season, was the birthday and Valentine party presided over by Mrs. T. D. Walker, Wednesday afternoon, to which she asked her guests to bring their sewing and knitting bags. The color scheme chosen was pink and white and was carried out in every detail. The decorations were beautiful, consisting of carnations in baskets and clusters throughout the house. The dining room was a scene of beauty with little cupids flying up and down the window curtains and from the center of the chandelier down over the table which was ladened with dainty refreshments, and had as its centerpiece a huge white cake with two pink hearts on it. Extending from the chandelier were four strings of hearts to each corner of the table, the places were marked with appropriate hand-painted cards. After chatting over the sewing and knitting, Mrs. E. W. Robinson introduced some very interesting and amusing games which were greetly enjoyed. The one finding the greatest number of small hearts, which were hidden about the living room was crowned queen of hearts, this honor tell on Mrs. L. S. Wilson. The one making the greatest number of words from "Valentine" was Mrs. E. W. Gillispie. Her prize being a beautiful valentine, the booby prize went to Mrs. Leo Fletcher. The next was a Valentine which was given for guessing who held an article given secretly by Mrs. Robinson. The winner of this was Mrs. J. W. Scott. Guest prizes were given Mrs. Gillispie and Mrs. L. Fletcher. After the games and music on the Edison, the delicious dainties were enjoyed. Mrs. Robinson in a very pathetic little poem presented her sister with a birthday card that she painted and a lovely string of beads that she made as a birthday token, also a beautiful Morocco address book. Those enjoying this pleasant affair were: Mesdames E. W. Robinson, E. W. Gillispie, L. S. Wilson, G. E. Frances, J. W. Scott, W. E. Declavbrook, U. S. Holland, P. F. O'Reilly, R. J. Fletcher, L.

Allen's Day will be celebrated at the Bethel Church with a big program. This is the greatest day in the African Methodist Church. Keep off the date of Feb. 22nd. There will be a grand program given by the Colridge Taylor Glee Club at the 2nd Baptist Church. There are in Fresno a number of persons who are love sick. What is a good cure? Masters Jack Trulett, Sam Williams, Ben Watkins, Carroll Watkins and Sam Hannibal, made a trip to Bowles, about 12 miles from Fresno, on bicycles. Some of the boys fell in love with some of those beautiful girls in Bowles and wish to make the trip again. Rev. C. P. Jones, the great evangelist who with so much fire and spirit carried on a revival at the Bethel A. M. E. Church some time ago, will start a series of meetings at the A. M. E. Zion Church this week. Some one remarked that they need another reporter for Fresno. I guess they do, but it seems to me that some one would apply for the position because if Fresno does not like the reporter they have now, why they ought to get a new one. Don't you think so? There is plenty of good talent in Fresno, but you can't judge the flavor of the soup by the waiter's thumb, neither can you tell the color of a man's neck tie if it is covered with his beard. Fresno was favored by Rev. McHoea of Flagstaff, Arizona, with two sermons last Sunday the 10th, at the 2nd Baptist Church and a lecture on the needs of a prosecuted Race. The cantata of Joseph under the direction of Madame Davis is progressing wonderfully. Mr. Herbert Bost has been totally exempt in all examinations at the Fresno High School.

The members of the Junior Boys' Club are taking long rides into the country and places of interest in their vicinity. The boys next visit will be to Riverside Park, a summer resort on the San Joaquin River. The bicycle squadron is of the following members: Masters Jack Trueitt, Sam Hannibal, Sam Williams, Carroll and Ben Watkins and Rectford Mitchell. Master Trueitt is president. ```markdown ``` W. E.

And now our good friend Nick Chiles takes a whack at our other good friend, Nelson Crews, just because Crews had a live man in his paper as dead; not much to go to war over, but then it is to be remembered that "Nick" does not believe in mineral olisequies until the proper time has arrived. The Eagle has not at any time in its crusade against the untoward and vicious propaganda which has been inimical to the progress of the race had in view the individual. We rather oppose on principle, we have not the time nor inclination to single out any particular person, therefore our efforts are against the propaganda itself, without having in view any particular individual. What we have said in the past-to those who encourage and abet the vicious and irresponsible leadership, still goes and until we eradicate such conditions our progress is materially impeded. Last week we called attention to the fact that a requisite for the upbuilding of our business enterprises, was that each individual should do his part in giving support to our various lines of business efforts. We called the roll on how many of our professional men purchased their shoes at a store conducted by their fellow members. This week we are calling the roll on all classes and we are including in our lists all of the business concerns of Central avenue, the dry goods store, the tailoring establishments, furniture stores, and on those doing full duty toward a reasonable support for such enterprises. Of course we realize that the man who runs the store has a duty to perform. He cannot sit down and whine and expect business simply because he belongs to certain class of people, but on the contrary he must be aggressive and offer inducements, herald the same from the husepsets, he cannot be penurious, he must buy printer's ink and plenty of it, he must be a live one if he is he will get the business. We have as yet never heard of any business succeeding which hid its light as it were, in obscurity. Therefore let's "Get Together" all of us and proceed to help each other. WE MUST PRODUCE Flattering indeed has been the reception of our articles along the line that to hold our own in this country we must become producers, and the more consideration we give this matter the more convinced we are that it is imperative that we become producers of the soil and from the bowels of the earth. Therefore it is with hearty acclaim that we welcome the news of opportunities in the soil. If the Hindu, the Japanese and the Chinese can come to this clime and become producers of the soil, can erect banks, daily papers and huge mercantile establishments, there is no reason why the Negro at home cannot even do better than these aliens. The only reason that he does not is because he shies at the soil, so now with the opportunities before us as they are, now is the time to acquire fertile and productive soil and forever establish a base for future prosperity. Many of our people, have come to these shores with the best intentions, but they made the fatal mistake of resting on their oars in the cities and forsook the soil, they now realize tall buildings, red street cars, had its effect and that was to stunt real growth along mercantile lines. The Japanese colony in Los Angeles as well as the Chinese, has a most pretentious appearance, back of it, my brothers, is the producer, and for us to succeed we must become real producers. The Negro who will frown on any movement for our people to acquire real fertile soil, no matter where it is located, is a stumbling block to our progress. FATHER-SON SUNDAY SOJOURNER. TRUTH ENTER TAINS ROLAND W. HAYES AND MOTHER AT RE- CEPTION All city pastors are requested to observe "Father-Son Sunday," on Sunday, February 17, at the 11 o'clock serviceeis, laying emphasis on the ideal relation between father and son. The national "Father and Son Week" by the international committee of the Young Men's Christian Association has been accepted by Canada and many of the foreign countries, which consequently makes it practically a world-wide program. All pastors are co-operating and announcements will be made next Sunday by them. Friday afternoon, at the beautiful club rooms of Sojourner Truth Home, Mr. Hayes and his mother were entertained at a reception. The home was beautifully decorated in pinks, greenery and flags. Colation was served by the Social Committee. of which Mrs. Dora Gamble was chairman. More than two hundred guests met Mr. Hayes and his mother upon this occasion.

For two weeks we were engaged in a revival which resulted in great good to the churches and the community. Rev. Dyer and Rev. Johnson are both young men and are strong factors in the church work of Calexico. The Second Baptist church rendered us great service in our efforts at soulsaving and many were blessed. We succeeded in organizing the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Calexico with 14 members, many well wishers. A number of visitors and friends gave us a happy surprise party Monday evening at the residence of Mrs. Allen: It was a surprise The many useful gifts were gladly received; also a nice nurse. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. Chism, Mrs. J. McCollum, Mrs. Allen, Mrs. Olivier, Mr. Champion, Mrs. Hozn, Mrs. Williams, Mrs. B. Jackson, Mrs. Lawrence, and others. Thus the evening was spent in a very happy vein. Rev. S. E. Edwards.

E COMPANY Cement ster SPECIALTIES ... 2nd F Streets SAN DIEGO Main 64 F-3164 THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE SAN DIEGO BY MRS. C. E. NORWOOD A patriotic meeting was held last Monday evening at the Strand Theater, by the Republican Club. The Negro Women's Council was well represented. Mrs. Ella Ross Hudson having charge of part of the program. Mrs. J. E. Freeman and Mrs. C. Morgan had prominent places on the stage, as they were here during the time of Lincoln. Mrs. C. Morgan was introduced to the audience by Mrs. Hudson, as one who was present at the theater on the night Abraham Lincoln was assassinated. Heathat's Jaillee Chorus rendered a number of their southern melodies, and were applauded back a number of times; they did themselves much honor. Mrs. C. J. Norwood recited a selection from Paul Laurence Dunbar, entitled, "Harry Beecher Stowe," which was appropriate for the occasion. Mrs. Ella Ross Hudson, president of the Negro Women's Council, gave a flowery address, and unveiled the picture of President Lincoln. You could hear a pin drop in that large audience as they sat with interested faces listening as to what would come next, and she eloquently told them just what the Negroes of America wanted. A beautiful bouquet of fragrant carnations were brought forward and presented to Mrs. Hudson at the close of her most brilliant address by the citizens of San Diego. The Negro Women's Council is indeed proud of their president, and in order that those who were not there may know just what was said, we publish her address as it was given to the audience. Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen. Turning the pages of history back to 1861, coming down the line to 1865, we und the country in the same condition as today, in war, with the land full of spies, traitors and treason makers. The North and South at dagger points over the question of slavery. The year of 1918 finds the country in war, fighting for world wide democracy, with the land full of spies, traitors and treason mokers. I am proud to say you do not find any of those undesirable citizens in the Negro race. Again turning our eyes and minds back to the dark and bloody days of slavery. In 1857 Dred Scott had been taken by his master into what is now Minnesota. After returning to Missouri, Dred Scott, the negro slave brought suit for treason on the ground that his master voluntarily had taken him where slavery was positively prohibited. The suit came before the Supreme Court of the United States, where it was decided that the Constitution of the United States regarded Negroes merely as property, that they could not become citizens and had no rights in a United States court, and any laws prohibiting slavery were unconstitutional. Chief Justice Tanner handed down a decision on March 6, 1857, that the Negro race was regarded interior, with "no rights which a white man was bound to respect." This decision encouraged the slavery leaders to continue the struggle to gain as many states as possible to status. In 1858 Senator Donglass was the Democratic candidate for re-election before the Illinois legislature. Illinois Republicans nominated a man known to his neighbors as honest, truthful and a Christian gentleman. He was also known in politics as a strong opponent of slavery. Shrewd and ready in a stump speech, careful in his words, always speaking the truth. The Republicans won the victory and he was elected president. You could not call him a Washington, for Washington had slaves. You could not call him a Napoleon, because Napoleon crushed the heart of Josephine for another woman. You could not call him a Cromwell, for Cromwell ruled by force and not law. You could call him nothing but Abraham Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln, the savior of his country and the emancipator of a downtrodden race. In the latter part of 1860 the Republicans held a convention and decided that slavery was morally wrong and politically hortilist and should forever be excluded from the territories. Being guided by the hand of the Almighty, Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, January 1, 1863, freeing 400,000 Negro slaves, giving to them the right as American citizens. It was during this period that we find it was through the Republicans that a plan of Negro suffrage was adopted by Congress, for the purpose of enabling the Negroes to protect themselves. It was also through the Republicans that shools for training were established in nearly every Southern state, for they soon realized the right to vote was of little use without the proper intelligence and education. You can readily see why the Negro has remained loyal to the Republican party. The call has gone out through the city, county and state to come together and reorganize the G. O. P. in the state of California, and if there was ever any one state that needs to heed that call it is the state of California. We, the women of the N. W. C. who are responding to this political call, are not seeking money or social equality, just recognition as American women enjoying the rights and privileges that the white women of this country enjoy as American born citizens. And with the co-operation of the Negro voters, we mean to put crape on our enemies and bury them in the political sea so deep they will never rise again. Senator Stone of Missouri has branded the Republicans with the intention of using the mistakes of the present administration in conducting the war as campaign material. I can truthfully say the Negroes of this country can and will take the treatment of their race under the present administration as campaign material. Seventy-five thousand Negro women have been given the right to vote in New York state. One hundred and forty-eight thousand Negroes have left the South and come North since the last election. That sounds bad for our enemies. Never since the emancipation of slavery has the Negro race suffered such insults and untold humiliation as under the present administration. Fifteen thousand government positions, carrying salaries amounting to more than $8,000,000 per annum under the Republican administration, had been killed by self-respecting and intelligent Negroes. Can you imagine the people of a civilized nation, who are giving up the lives of loved ones on the altar of sacrifice to help win a war, that is fighting for world-wide democracy, taking part in the burning alive of a human on Sunday, December 2, in the public square at Dyersburg, Tenn. Latin Scott, a young Negro, about 30 years of age, was accused of an assault on a Tennessee farmer's wife. He was pinned, face down, with iron posts, red-hot pokers and flat irons run up and down his naked body, red-hot irons stuck in his eyes and ears, and after being tortured in this manner for half an hour, rubbish was piled high about the agonized body and set on fire. This is just one of the many harrowing crimes that has happened during this administration and nothing has ever been done to ferret out the leaders of these unrealized acts. Since the men at the head of the government under the Democratic administration has turned a deal car to the pleadings of the Negroes of this country for justice and protection as citizens, it is up to every sensible Negro man and woman to fall in line with the reorganizing of the G O P throughout the United States and help put the Republicans at the head of the government, where they belong. After they are placed there, which they will be when the proper time comes, then it will be up to them to see that the Negroes get protection and the rights of an American born citizen. Let not only the Negroes fall in line to help recognize this party, but let the backsliders come home. There are three kinds of Republicans. The Lily Whites, who are negro haters and Democrats in principle, wearing the Republican overcoat, this class is largely found in the South. The next is the Progressive, who is straddling the tense at all times, and whichever side the wind blows the strongest is the side on which he will fall. You are only backsliders wearing the Republican shirt on the wrong side. So get off the tense, turn your Republican shirt to the right side and step in line and help the G O. Ptope put this state where it was ten years ago. The last and real Republicans are the ones that represent the Abraham Lincoln, John Brown, Ben Harrison, William McKinley kind, who stand for principle and a square deal to all. If ever there was a time when this country needed this kind of administration from the city pound master of San Diego up to the president of the United States, it is now. Let every Republican man and woman register, and get in the harness for the fall election. The Carnation Club has another contest on to raise money, and the members are all busy.
