ESTABLISHED 1879 LEADING RACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE o. VOLUME 31 Rt. Rev JOHN H. HARRIS For the first time since the pleasure has been mine to talk with you from week to week, I wish to depart from my usual course and say a word of the Church with which I am connected, and the honored prelate who is with us for a few days. The A. M. E. Zion Church is indisolubly linked with the progress of our people in this city. She has sought to help all in their climb to the top by giving them a vision of things worth while. She has fostered the spirit of unity, brotherly love and co-operation. She has walked in the road with all, borne her burdens, shouldered her crosses and faced her responsibilities. In common with other religious bodies, she has only labored to make the desert rejoice and blossom as a rose, to erect buildings able to stand the storms of time. At this time Zion feels a thrill my pen cannot describe nor my imagination picture. Every breath she breathes is one of hope—every song she sings is a melody of glorious anticipation. Do you ask why? Because she is favored with one of the brightest lights on the Episcopal bench. Because she realizes a new day has dawned and the future is great. Never was the Pacific Coast more favored than when Bishop L. W. Kyles D. D., was given oversight of Zion's work. I say, "Pacific Coast" because Bishop Kyles is a cosmopolitan figure. He is too great, too earnest, too broad to be hammered by any barrier. He is a than of the people. He loves humanity, and expresses that love in deeds whose brightness cannot be dimmed. Since his coming, stagnant pools have become streams bubbling with life, hills thought to be insurmountable have been climbed, minds that were closed have been opened, hearts whose doors were shut have bee lifted from their hinges. Progress and efficiency have the watchwords of his reign. This man of the multitude, this lover of men, this preacher of power will deliver a famous message Sunday afternoon, at 3 p. m., at the A. M. E. Zion Church. Every evening at 7.30 during the next week Bishop Kyles will hold evangelistic services. I cordially invite you to come. Your heart will be made lighter, your outlook on life brighter. On to Zion and hear Bishop L. W. MEXICAN WEST COAST SETTLEMENT PLANNED New Yorkers to View Lower California Region—May Launch Big Project An exploration expedition into Lower California to investigate certain territories in that state and additional lands along the west coast of Mexico, with a view of colonization and ultimate development of mineral and agricultural possibilities entailing the expenditure of many millions of dollars, will be conducted at an early date by Dr. A. H. Moore of New York and a party of engineers. Colonization offices will be established in Los Angeles if the expedition recommends that the undertaking is worth while, and the agricultural possibilities are what they have been represented to the New York capitalists. Dr. Moore is a guest at the Hotel Alexandria, after having traveled across the continent with his chauffeur as his only companion. He expects to go to Mexico during the early part of the week, where he will confer with Governor Eestabank Cantu and other officials relative to the project. "I am not at liberty to go into any details as to our plans," Dr. Moore said, "because as yet these plans are only tentative. But, if we are successful, our headquarters will be es- --- The California Eagle tablished in Los Angeles; and considerable shipping to the Los Angeles harbor from the colony will result.

Dones, our young real estate broker, has secured an option on the beautiful lot, corner of Jefferson and Normandie. The lot has a trivantage of 800 feet on Jefferson, 125 on Normandie and 125 on Bratton. Mr. Dones proposes to have a local bank insure 600 bonds to be sold at $100 each, as soon as all bonds are paid up in full he proposes to commence to have the building erected. The building is to be 15 stores and theater or church on the ground floor, a garage to face on Normandie, and a large hall upstairs to be used as a reception room for the entire building. Upstairs to be 3, 4 and 5-room apartments. He proposes that the flats be strictly modern, steam heat and elevator service. The building as proposed to have an income of $1000 per month. The architect is now drawing a prospectus which will appear in next week's Eagle. Already over twenty-fifths of the leading families in this city have declared that they would take a bond. Mr. Dones, in planning this proposition, said we are paying $20000 per month rent to white people. There is $100,000 in the white people's banks belonging to colored people, still we are not represented in financial affairs in this city as well as we are in any other city of this size in the country. When the war is over the housing condition in this city will be pour for the colored people. When foreigners come to California, they will certainly have preference over, as for houses and apartments. We will be forced to live in a cheap class of houses and pay what rent the owners so demand to clear us. Attorney Fred Mason, Mr. A J. Brown, Raymond T. Dones and Littleton P. Ashford will assist in getting the proposition on foot. A local bank will be the trustees, and will receive all money and issue all bonds, in fact, will handle the financial end of the business. It will be arranged so the bonds can be purchased on the installment plan, giving the purchaser six months to a year to pay for same. The investment will be the best paying proposition any one could put their money into, as they would pay at least 7 per cent interest. Mr Dones says if Los Angeles people do not take to the proposition he will go South and put the proposition up to Southern people. In the city of Los Angeles, the Jews, Japs, Chinese, Mexicans, all have buildings, owned by a number of their race. In Los Angeles the colored people are behind. Full details about the building can be had at 14083 Central avenue. Broadway 14083. PRESIDING ELDER REV. JAMES H. WILSON Returns from Attendance of A. M. E. Church Councils at Louisville and St. Louis Presiding Elder J. H. Wilson, of the California Conference, has just returned from a trip to Louisville, Ky, and St. Louis, Mo., where he att tended the Bishop's Council and the Presiding Elders' Council at St. Louis; also met the Board of Educa- tion, of which he is a member, at Harrisburg, Ky. This board reviewed the work of the connectional schools, twenty-four in number, with an en- rollment of 3287 and 148 teachers; total graduates for the year, 233. Sixty buildings, with a total valuation of $665,000. Total amount raised and expended annually, $250,000. February 5 and 7 he attended the Presiding Elders' Council at Way- man's Chapel, St. Louis. February 13 attended the Bishops' Council at Louisville. Also the Trio Council of Bishops, which has under advisement the organic union of the three Negro Methodist Churches, viz. the A. M. E. A. M. E. Zion and C. M. E. Rev. Wilson says it looks as though the wedding day will be set. The General Conference Commission met and selected St. Louis as the seat of the general conference for May, 1920. Rev Wilson speaks very enthusiastically of the progress of the church and of the interest the people evinced for the work in this section. While in St. Louis he filled the pulpit on Sunday for Rev. W. H. Peck, at the great St. James Church in that city. The St. Louis Argus gives a glowing account of his sermon. Rev Wilson is a wide awake and broad-gauged churchman, who keeps abreast of the times and his great success in his work for this district is that he is alive to all the issues, and the great masses of the people are always willing to hold up his hand. We are glad to have in this section a man of Rev. Wilson's calibre, who strives to keep up at all times the banner of progress in this section. San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, MARCH 2, 1918 THE LINCOLN DEDICATION Colored People Have for Size, the Distant Friend, Written by Darius. Finest School Building in Olatte What is claimed to be the best school building in the state for its size is the Lincoln school building in northwest Olatte, built for the colored people. The handsome brick structure was dedicated on Thursday night, February 7, with impressive ceremonies in which both whites and colored took part. The big assembly room, which will hold 400 people with a little crowding, was filled to capacity. Mrs. Porter gave two piano selections, and all marveled at her skill at the instrument. She is a graduate in music of Western University. The address was made by Prof. E. J. Hawkins, who for 14 years, has been the principal of the colored schools in Fort Scott. He is past master of the Masonic Grand Lodge of Kansas. The quintette gave other selections and the garden prizes were then presented by Rev. J. A. Monteith, one of the judges. The school building is a handsome structure of the very latest design, and no expense was spared in equipping it with the very latest known to building science. On the upper floor is the big assembly room and the two school rooms proper. On the lower floor is the basement for basket ball, the domestic science room and the manual training room. Prof. Porter and wife have made a place in Olatte, not only with the colored people, but the white people as well—Daily Paper, Olatte, Kans. Mrs. Porter is the daughter of the editor of this paper She and her husband will visit Los Angeles this summer. DR. JOHN E. PORTER LOCATES IN OUR MIDST Slowly but surely the gap caused by the assignment of three of our leading physicians to the service of their country is being filled, and truly the city is to be congratulated on having a man with the experience and capability of Dr. Porter to come into our midst. The writer knew the genial Doctor back in Kansas, and knows personally of his worth in his profession. One of the salient features of the doctor's career is that while he has always been a busy man, caring for the sick, he has also been equally as busy doing constructive work for the race. He is active in both church and fraternal circles and a real live wire for racial advancement. In Minnesota, in Kansas and in Oklahoma, the places where he practiced, he enjoyed an enviable reputation as one of the ablest and foremost physicians with a clientage which included all classes of citizenship. Dr. Porter is a graduate of Fisk University, at Nashville, Tenn. He took a medical course at the Great Northern University at Chicago from which he graduated in 1898. He practiced in St. Paul, Topkea, and from there to Oklahoma, from which field he comes to Los Angeles. The Doctor will soon be joined by his wife, who is preparing to close up his offices in Oklahoma and will in a short time join her husband here The Doctor's standing is such that he has been granted reciprocal privileges and he will fit up a suite of modern offices right away in the Delta building, 436 South Spring street, at which place will be the base for his further activities on the Pacific Coast. CAMP GRANT NOTES The 13th battalion of the 16thidepot brigade of Camp Lewis arrived here Friday, February 22 at 3 p.m. The trip was made over the Northern Pacific from Camp Lewis to St. Paul; and from St. Paul to Camp Grant over the C. B. & Q. The 49th company was assigned to company I, 365th infantry. The 50th company merged into company K of the 365th infantry, and the 51st company was divided, some going to company L, and others to the machine battalion of the 365th infantry. The 365th regiment is a new organization of the 92d division, and is being organized for fighting purposes only. The boys assigned to this regiment are certain to see overseas duty. We found the weather here beautiful after a heavy storm. The mud is ankle deep and there is much sickness among the colored boys. No sickness has been reported among the boys from Camp Lewis. Quite a number of the boys spent Saturday afternoon and Sunday in Chicago. We found our old friend, Lieutenant Jesse Kinnbrough, ready to meet us with the glad hand. Also our old friend, Lieutenant Stovall is here with a goodly supply of pills for those of us with ailments. Each man was given a brand new rille Saturday morning and was told to prepare to spend July 4 in the trenches. Don't forget to help the Red Cross whenever you can. Most of us would be very uncomfortable were it not for the comfortable mufflers, sweaters and wristlets furnished by that organization. At Fargo, N. D., we were met by members of the Red Cross, who loaded us down with apples, candy and cigarettes. Representatives of the Red Cross also gave us cheer at St. Paul, Minn. Camp Grant, Rockford, Ill. Feb. 23. —The 13 battalion left Camp Lewis Monday, February 18, on a special train of twelve cars. Two cars were used for kitchens. We had a very nice trip, in spite of the zero weather. After leaving Tacoma, every place that we stopped we encountered zero weather. At Paradise, Mont., our first place to drill, the thermometer hovered around the 14 below mark. Our next drill was at Billings, Mont. The thermometer had dropped since the early morning from 45 to 38 below. Everybody cheered us as we marched through the principal streets. At our next stop, Fargo, N.D., we were at the station by fourteen Red Cross girls who gave each of us a package of cigarettes and a package of candy and several postcards, also some apples. It was only 2 below there. We reached Camp Grant Friday, about 4 p.m. We here we commanded by colored captains, first and second lieutenants. Lieutenant Leonard Stovall is surgeon at the 365th infantry infantry. The 49th company, 13th battalion, Camp Lewis, here is I company, 365 infantry. The 50th company is K company, 365th, and the 51st company is the 350th mine gun company. Ray Isom, Mike Taylor, Neal Brandford and Ed Wilkinson compose company its stel- lar quartette; their favorite song is "The Blues." PRIVATE CHOYCE CRAIN. A. Co., 365 Int., Camp Grant, Rock- ford, Ill. DIDO THE HERO We are running herewith the last chapter of "Dido the Hero," a thrilling story born in the imagination of our own Prof. H. D. Grier. Many persons read Dido with a great deal of interest, and have expressed themselves to us as being pleased with the superior talent exhibited by Prof. Grier as a writer of fiction. "The Eagle too, thanks Mr. Grier for this splendid effort. "You deserve a reward young man," declaired Mr. Bradshaw. "Let's make it up right here," added an enthusiastic traveler. "I'll start it with one thousand dol lars" said another "Double it" shouted someone. "Trades it" came up. "Triple it," came a cry. "Well," exclaimed Mr. Bradshaw. "I'll make you a present of five thousand dollars for having saved my life together with the lives of my wife, our two daughters and the rest of the passengers on board the Juniata." "Many thanks," Mr. Bradshaw. "said Dido, bowing courteously to the gentleman whose generosity startled as well as overwhelmed him. I also thank the other friends who have contributed, seeking to honor by their sultendil vits." Turning to Mr. and Mrs. Bradshaw, Dido continued," talking in a loud voice: "I say, Mr. Bradshaw, also to you, Mrs. Bradshaw, there is one gift besides which all others that have been made here so lately fade into nothingness; there is a reward which I have not merited, perhaps, but one for which I would gladly stake my own life, risk the perils of the sea, or defy any form of man or beast. This bravery seems but child's play compared to the dangers which I would cheerfully go forth to meet could I but cherish the hope of winning your consent and approval to claim the reward. If you admire me for my fearlessness, you surely will respect the source from which this inspiration comes; to accept the one and reject the other is inconsistent with the life of both. It was love that fired my heart with vigilence, and my keeping watch over you all through the night, it enabled me to stand guard over the deep and preserve your ship from a great disaster. It was your daughter's womanly courage that compelled me to fly to the pilot house with determination in one hand and blue-steel in the other in order to check Captain Jaunka in his madness." "She's his," shouted the throng that had gathered around the purser's office, "He has won her." "He's worthy," shouted the crowd, "What think you, Mrs. Bradshaw," said Mr. Bradshaw. "Is he a real haro?" asked Mrs. Bradshaw, after a few minutes hesitation. "Time will prove that to your satisfaction I think," said the sister of Margaret in answer to her mother's question. To Speak "It would be unkind to oppose them if they love each other," added Mrs. Bradshaw. "Then what have you to say, Margaret," quizzed her father. "Any woman could learn to love a hero. He is my hero. We are going to be married with your consent, your blessing." "Papers! Papers! Read all about the shipwreck," yelled the newsbutcher passing up and down the aisles of the salons. Every one was eager to buy copies in order to read of the fate of the other steamers that had battled all night with the terrible storm. "Here, boy," said Mr. Bradshaw, give me a copy. "Listen folks! cried Mr. Bradshaw. "Let me read about it to you. Five ships were totally destroyed last night off the coast of Mackinaw Island. Not a single passenger, or member of a crew from any of the ships escaped. All passengers, crews and captains perished with the sinking of the ships. No news has been received from the Juniata, the twin steamer to the Tienesta. The Tienesta was destroyed last night near the Island of Mackinaw. The fate of the belated steamer. Juniata, depends upon whether or not she sailed from the port of Detroit last evening. The two steamers were scheduled to meet at Mackinaw Island. The Juniata has not been heard from." Eery! one grew sad at the thoughts of the ill-fated ships, but remembering how Dido had been instrumental in sating there lives they threw their hats and hands into the air with a wild yell of "three cheers for Dido." "Come, Dido!" said Mr. Bradshaw. "we will go from here to Duluth by train. You have our consent and our blessing in taking our daughter Margaret to wed." On these words Dido drew Margaret close to him, pressed a kiss upon her lips and said, "Come! I love you only." She blushed and softly murmured, "Hero mine." DOES THE CHURCH LEAD OR FOLLOW MODERN THOUGHT AND LIFE Paper Read Before the Inter-Denominalational Alliance, Los Angeles, February 22, by R. N. Holt, D. D., Pastor of St. Paul Baptist Church Brother President, Associate Ministers and Visitors: In view of the fact that we are living in the most remarkable age of the world's history, and that civilization, in her metaphysical chariot, has crossed the "Rhine" of ancient and medieval superstitution, and belted the globe with a band of intellectual fervor, raising the flag of modern reform from steepe and tower in every land. And in view of a further fact that modern life is taking form under the chisel of modern thought, I am startled by a "watcher" sowing in my mental sky, with a message incumbent upon me to report here, under the caption, "Does the church lead or follow modern thought and life?" Guided by the star of hope and supported by collossal pillars of Bible truth, encouraged by a vision of the ensign floating from the wrinkled summit of Cavalry, in the face of twenty centuries of human pride; and consolled by remembrance of the immortal declaration of Prince Emanuel, "Upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it," I do the more cheerfully answer in the affirmative, "The church leads and will ever lead modern thought and life." The Age Modern thought has completely evolutionized the medieval age. We once listened to the cluck of the weather beaten stage coach rattling against the side of distant hills and beating dust in the face of the pedestrians in the jungle of the aborigines. We saw the careworn missionary and the "circuit rider" wearying, racing blinding storms, sheltering under the bows of bending oaks, or resting in the lofts of pioneer cabins. We have heard the fingers of our chief industries playing upon the thread of loom and shuttle, the tired hand, whirling on the radius of the spinning wheel. We saw the one-masted schooner, helplessly begging rest on the bosom of fretting waves. We saw the helmsman watching the trade winds, and heard the boatswain cry, "High sail!" In fact, we saw medieval civilization struggling along a line, lain by the "Star of Hope"—the Church of God—until the spirit changes with interest and beauties more inviting. We now hear the hum of industry echoing in every land. The flapping belt, the buzzing wheels, the electric sparks bursting into power, annihilating space, discarding distance and chasing darkness. We watch the chariots race through our improved streets—electric wagons jostling above and below, at right angles, like "Satars" in the haunted halls of the Pharaohs. We now hear the chant of the poets, eclipsing the memory of Dryden and Whittier. We hear music that would invite the approval of Mozart and Handel. We are entertained in the halls of philosophy, welcomed into the domes of thought and at home in the parlor of metaphysics. We scale the heights of astronomical wonders, calculate the periodic move THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 3 Speak ments of those shining for-get-menots of the angels that twinkle in the infinite meadows of space; chat the milkmaid as she skips the unbeaten path of the milky way athwart the heavens, and laugh with Orion in the temple of Jupiter. Going further, we stand uncovered amid the whirl of modern thought, watch the iron horse stem the ocean into a foam—death defying, plung into the coral parlor of the polyp, and then rise with the agility of "Leviathan." In the great economy all nations are made next door neighbors; their secrets creeping beneath the bacom of the "briny" or riding in the currents of winds. We next see modern life adjusting itself to new conditions, command society arranging its banquets and custom adjusting its plumage to the winds of modern development. What Is in the Lead? Sirs, in an age like this, the watcher asks: "Does the Church lead or follow modern thought and life?" In my effort to fathom out what I would term a correct solution and offer it to you as my answer to this interrogative subject, I have found it to be a problem akin to the geometrical problems of Euclid; that is, in the beginning most difficult, but later on, both interesting and fascinating. It is argued by some who are unfriendly to our progress as a race, that education is harmful to the Afro-American and units him for work, and hence, impairs his usefulness. EMINENT STATESMAN AND MATCHLESS ORATOR Secured by the Y. M. C. A. to Deliver a Lecture Here April 8 Through the good offices of prominent friends, the local Y. M. C. A. has secured Rev. Revery C. Ransome to deliver a lecture in this city on April 8. Dr. Ransome is a general officer in the First A. M. E. Church and editor of the Review. He is one of the greatest orators in this country, who at all times brings a burning message. He is at present making the race for congress in one of the districts of New York City. The election will take place on next Tuesday. The place at which he is to speak will be announced later. BUSY BEE CLUB OF NEW HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH SCORES NIGHTLY SUCCESS The grand musicale given on Thursday night at the New Hope Baptist church, 1623 Paloma street, was a magnificent success and the lusy Bee Club and its Prophet, Mrs E. Elmore are to be commended for their tireless effort to gather such a galaxy of talent on this occasion. The audience was a splendid representative and appreciative one, which hung onto each number as it was presented. Editor J. B. Bass was presented as Master of Ceremonies by L Hammond, who soon got down to business and reeled off the program with neatness and dispatch. "America" was sung as the opening number, the invocation was by W. L. Strouther, the pastor, Rev. A. Lively, in a few words made everybody welcome to the utmost, to which Attorney Paul M. Nash made a happy response, Miss Adie Hutchins, a young miss, rendered a solo most beautifully and received a hearty applause. Little Beatrice Hammond's piano solo was highly appreciated as was also the violin solo by Master Leroy Beavers. Catherine and Richard Swanson were greeted with tremendous applause when they sang, "Somewhere in France." Miss Benson sweetly rendered a vocal solo which was highly appreciated. Mrs H. E. Norwood favored with a selection and received tumultuous applause. Prof. W. T. Wilkins pupils gave a piano selection on two pianos, 8 hands, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Mrs. E. Smith was enthusiastically applauded when she rendered a solo. Mrs. Swanson's reading from Dunbar was a scream and they just compelled her to respond to an encore after her reading of the "Party." Miss Swanson is par excellent as an interpreter of Dunbar. The Overture, "The Poet and Peasant" directed by Prof. W. T. Wilkins, and played by his pupils, was the last piece. They carried the house by storm and the great audience called them back for more, to which they graciously responded. Rev. N. P. Greggs was called upon and very pleasingly gave a few remarks which were highly appreciated by all who heard him. The musicale was a grand success and Mrs. Elmore and her committee are entitled to the highest credit for their tireless work in providing the stellar entertainment. HENRY B.

Miss Dora Dumini is still continued to bed and is slowly improving. to bed and is slowly improving. Rev. and Mrs. Gordon, Miss Clara Bedney, Mr. B. Bedney and little niece, Vivian Bedney, motored from Los Angeles in the Rev.'s car to be present for the wedding Sunday, and were house guests of Mrs. S. A. Jackson. The Silver Leaf Court No. 3 will give an Easter dance April, at Labor Temple. Mr. Fred Butler, who has been con- fined to bed a victim of pneumonia, is much improved. Sunday last brought the wedding in this city of Miss Miss May Jackson and William Williams. The pretty service was read at noon at the home of the bride by Rev J D Gordon of Los Angeles Taheremah Baptist Church. Some city or more guests were in attendance. The bride wore a becoming gown of white silk net over cream silk, trimmed with silver lace. She carried a small white covered prayer book. Her attendants were Misses Margaret Smith of Roseville, gowned in a canary colored taffeta silk and chiffon sleeves. Ruthella French of Chico, rose silk taffeta, Lone Looy of Maryville, champagne changeable taffeta silk. Naomi Brown of this city, pale pink silk taffeta with chiffon sleeves and small rose bud trimmings. All of these were beautiful picture hats. Miss Clara Bedney, the bride's aunt and maid of honor, wore a very pretty gown of gaslight green taffeta silk trimmed with silver lace. Miss Grace Jackson, twin sister of the bride, and bridesmaid, looked very sweet in a cream silk chiffon creation over cream silk and pearl trimmings. Little Visiann Bedney, niece of the bride and flower girl, was adorned in a white net and lace frock with pink ribbon trimmings. Master Delphina Slaughter, the ring bearer, wore a white serge suit, such as little toots of his age are gooming and sweet in *Little* Charisa *Bundley*, the train bearer, looked charming in a white embroidered frock, with pink ribbons. The bride's will was of silk and fastened with a wreath of orraffa blossoms. The will formed the train as her beautiful gown was of short length. The groom wore the conventional black fasst did his best man, Mr. II. Bodhya, and the father of the bride, who's arm supported her to the bower of smiths and white bows under which, stood the Reys Garden, Potts of Stockton and J. W. Anderson of Shiloh Baptist Church of this city. These awaited the groom and best man to take his bride as she came to the strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march played by Mrs. R. J. Fletcher. Before the entrance of the bridal party, Mrs. Barber sang "Don't Turn the Smiles Into Tears," and Mr. Charles Baily sang "Just You." The groom's present to his bride was a gold laveller set with four diamonds. She received a wonderful collection of silver, cut glass and various pretty and useful things. Among them was the set of crepe de chine underwear which the bride was married in, coming from Mr. and Mrs. J. Soarese and daughters. Mrs. W Slaughter furnished the wedding night dress, which was of crepe de chine. After the marriage a delightful luncheon was served. The bride and groom departed on the afternoon train for Southern California to spend an indefinite honeymoon. Mr. and Mrs. B. A.

Mr. and Mrs. L. Smith and son were attendants at the wedding, having motored down from their home in Roseville. The Lyceum at Shiloh Baptist Church was well attended Sunday afternoon, and the president, Mrs. J. W. Mills, deserves great credit in securing such a pleasant program and engaging Rev. Gordon to deliver such an interesting and instructive lecture on "The Negro and His Part in the Present War." It is seldom we are favored with such an intellectual treat as we received from Rev. Gordon. Mrs Grant Smith of Marysville was down to attend the wedding. There will be a "State Fair" given some time next month at St. Andrew's A. M. E. Church. The Monday Club received the hospitality Monday evening of Mrs. S. A. Jackson, at whose home they met. The extra guests were Rev. and Mrs. Gordon and some members from the Mothers' Club. A very interestink talk was enjoyed by those present, given by Mrs. Gordon. Mrs. Jackson, on retiring from the presidential chair, was presented with "Longfellow's Poems" by the newly-elected president, Mrs. J. Soares, in behalf of the club. At a late hour a supper was enjoyed. Miss Delia Harris attended the dance at Chico last week and spent some pleasant days visiting friends. The members of the Household of Ruth, after their regular meeting last week, listened to a musical program and afterward had the pleasure of a delightful lunch. Mrs. L. Hawkins of Los Angeles is making her home here indefinitely and is residing at 707 I street. Mrs. J. B. Milton of Riverside is visiting in town. Miss Dora Duminie is not yet able to leave the house, but was able to enjoy a pleasant little party her mother had prepared for her on her natal day.

A very pleasant social affair, despite the insistence of the clouds to keep a continuous downpour, was the dancing party given last Thursday evening at Normandie Hall by Mr. and Mrs. Van Cleve Williams, complimentary to Miss Beulah Coles, sister of Mrs. Williams, who recently returned to this city after a stay of five years in Portland. The girls, a supremely, most radiant and charming bunch, quite adorably modest in those most becoming gowns of fairy-like white, with coy touches of gold and silver ornaments, amazingly designed, absolutely severe as to lines, in pinks, blue and such daintiness as only those girls can wear to perfection. All this, I say, despite the rain. The boys (princes charming, let us call them, for in their conventional black a more handsome and meritorious bunch could not have been selected), availed themselves of the opportunity to make each and every minute count pleasantly for those charming girls—and, feeling kindly toward their fellow brothers who have been called to duty, yet rejoicing over the very realness of having those girls all to themselves, as it were. The hall could not have been more tastily decorated to offset the gay couples had the moon been ice in full display in place of the weepy clouds.

Libelous Films Find No Place in Atlantic City. Atlantic City, Feb. 18.—Mayor Harry Bacharach has issued a decree for- bidding the Colonial Theatre to show the film play, "Birth of a Nation" Elaborate plans had been made by the theatre management to run the film for three days. The matter was brought to the attention of the Mayor by public spirited colored citizens. He immediately sent the following message to the Colonial's manager: "It has been called to my attention that you are thinking of bringing the 'Birth of a Nation' to Atlantic City on February 14, 16 and 16. I desire to notify you that you should cancel this engagement at once, as it will not be permitted to be shown in this city. If you attempt to do so, I shall be compelled to use the power vested in me as Mayor of the city and close your theatre. I do this not alone as Mayor of the city, but as vice-president of the State Home Defense Committee." The matter was taken up by the Amusement Association, which assured the Mayor that it did not wish to give any exhibition that might provoke race hatred. Later on the theatre manager called on the Mayor and told him that although the theatre would lose hundreds of dollars they accepted his ruling and would not contest the case.

Monrovia We are glad to note that the National Committee from California voted to seat Perry Howard from Mississippi as a member of the National Committee and that Mr. Crocker stands for a square deal for this loyal unit of the Republican party. Quite a number of the people, inspired by the opportunities in the mighty Imperial Valley, have either journeyed to the Valley or are making preparations to do so. And this, to our mind, is a good omen. It shows that the people are thinking, and if they will only think, they will surely act. The rich and fertile soil of Imperial Valley and of Lower California will ultimately solve the problems which confront them. It is here they will, instead of becoming consumers, become real producers. HOW LONG, LORD? HOW LONG? The lynchings and burnings of human beings in this country merrily along without protest and the people are struck at the audacity of the same—but, like Pharoah of old, the man up will not hearken to the cry of, "Let my people go!" Andion, "How long, Oh Lord? How Long?" still remains unanswered. Commenting on the situation, the following lines from Express appear: "America leads the world. Up till Feb. 13, 1918 A. D., except the 'Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave' at the stake a human being. Countries—heathen, barbaric or desiring the most up-to-date methods of destroying human beings write the Christian hearted white people of either Tennessee orissippi. Just now they hold the front of the stage." The lynchings and burnings of human beings in this country still goes merrily along without protest and the people are struck with awe at the audacity of the same—but, like Pharoah of old, the men higher up will not hearken to the cry of, "Let my people go!" And the question, "How long, Oh Lord? How Long?" still remains unanswered. Commenting on the situation, the following lines from the Dallas Express appear: "America leads the world. Up till Feb. 13, 1918 A. D., no nation except the 'Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave' has burned at the stake a human being. Countries—heathen, barbaric or civilized, desiring the most up-to-date methods of destroying human beings, should write the Christian hearted white people of either Tennessee or Mississippi. Just now they hold the front of the stage." Further on the same paper says: "Tennessee burned her human beings as a closing feat 1917 civilization. Mississippi opened up her bid for recognition fire at the stake in the early days of 1918. Tennessee, not to be outdone, comes back and offers us Afro-American as a burnt off ring on the second month of our Lord, the one thousand, nine hundred and eighteen.

Mississippi opened up her bid for recognition by a fire at the stake in the early days of 1918.

WANTED-PRODUCERS In Los Angeles and surrounding territory, according to liable statistics, there are 22,000 Japanese; in the same territ are more than 30,000 colored Americans. The Japanese have honeycomed with their business enterprises—they even contientious places on Spring street and on Broadway; then, on F for blocks, all of the business houses are conducted by them all the various lines of business, from banking institutions automobile accessories; some of them dry goods, hardware In Los Angeles and surrounding territory, according to very reliable statistics, there are 22,000 Japanese; in the same territory there are more than 30,000 colored Americans. The Japanese have this city honeycombed with their business enterprises—they even conduct pretentious places on Spring street and on Broadway; then, on First street, for blocks, all of the business houses are conducted by them, including all the various lines of business, from banking institutions to that of automobile accessories; some of them dry goods, hardware, shoe and clothing establishments, are a high credit indeed. They employ thousands of Japanese men and women in these business concerns. Now, what about the 30,000 or more Negro citizens, who outnumber the Japanese by several thousands, and who are at home? They did not have to migrate, but are on their very own soil. How many business enterprises have they, and to how many men and women do they furnish employment? How many banks have the Negro Americans, and how does their business section compare with that of the Japanese? We are unable to report any comparison whatever and there is a reason for this, and we verily believe that at last the people are waking up and see their error, and that they will work overtime to overcome it. When a Japanese establishes a business, he always has producing power behind it, else he will not establish a business; in other words, the great masses of the Japanese are producers. They till the soil; go to the depths of the soil and bring forth the results thereof. The Japanese business house is their clearing house. And on tails foundation has been erected the stability of Japanese business. Behind all this, they forever and eternally STICK TOGETHER in all business essentials which mean progress for the Japanese. This people, therefore, can well emulate the Japanese in business and look to the soil. Become producers, and—when we do that—all things will be added unto THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE TICAL POT PIE Congressman Osborne has made an rich deliberation, in last enviable record and it is the concen- taminer the Stephens-for- sus of opinion that he will have no committee was announced opposition for a second term. After much deliberation, in last Sunday's Examiner the Stephens-for-governor committee was announced and thereon appeared the names of the following colored citizens: W. O. Tyler, H. E. Macbeth, Sherman Overton and W. H. Sanders. Between Heney and Woolwine for governor, for goodness sakes give us Woolwine right quick. Uncle Tom Hughes, the silent commander, it is said will guide the destiny of Governor Stephens' campaign. The boys were all lining up in ample time to get in line on the Stephens Tally-Ho, but there were some who missed out despite their efforts. E. J. Delorey, the village blacksmith, they say is making a mighty good member of the Board of Supervisors, and it seems he will get of steady as soon as the election day comes. Not much has been said so far about lieutenant governor, but Senator A. H. Breed of Alameda county looks good to us. And now the wide awake and hustling secretary of state, Frank C. Jordan, has entered the race for governor there will surely be something doing. And now the seventy-fourth a sensibly district, without Hubbard in the fight, will look very tame. But at that there promises to be some lively stopping before the primaries come off. Wm. Greenwood has a host of friends and Billy Vacher says that he has more.

Warner, of 1673 Logan avenue, entertained the 4C's Whist Club, all the members being present. The game was started at 8:30. Mrs. Jackson and Mrs. Hayden, being tied for first honors, with Mrs. McDonald a dangerous second, they vied with each other until they reached the stretch, when Mrs. McDonald crept up and fought a dead-heat with Mrs. Hayden up to within an inch of the wire; then with another burst of speed, MrMs. Hayden worked herself just one point ahead of her competitor and crossed under the wire by an eyelash, thereby winning the ladies' prize. The gentlemen's prize was won by F. T. Anderson, Mr. Hayden second, and Mr. S. Reeves running third. Mr. Walter McDonald got left at the post, but oh, my! how he made up when he got to that Italian dinner table. Why, you would think he was a human compress, to see how adroitly he stores away food without the least effort or fatigue.

IF YOU'VE ANYTHING GOOD TO SAY If you've anything good to say of a man Don't wait till he's laid to rest. For the ecology spoken when hearts are broken Is an empty thing at best Ah! the blighted flower now drooping lonely Would perfume the mountain-side If the sun's rays had but shone today And the pretty bud espied If you've alms to give to the poor. Don't wait till you hear the cry Of wan distress in the winderness Lest the one forsaken die. Oh, hearken to poverty's sad lament! Be swift her wants to allay; Don't spurn God's poor from the favored door. As you hope for mercy one day. Don't wait for another to bear the burden. Of sorrow's irksome load; Let your hand extend to a stricken friend. As he totters adown life's road. And if you've anything good to say of a man.

His subject was "A Preacher's Duty." Touching a few remarks he made in his sermon, he said that a preacher must tell the people of their sins along all lines of life. God has no respect of persons, if we can't live together, or work together while here on earth and in the church, we will surely live together in hell, for without love for our brother and sister, to hell we will surely go. Every man must stand before God for himself and give an account of the deeds done in the body. Some people see many faults in others, when if the cloak was pulled off of them, they would be worse.

Returns are required of every unmarried person, man or woman, whose net income for the calendar year 1917 was $1,000 or more and of every married person whose net income was $2,000 or more. The rate of tax is at least 2 per cent on net Incomes of unmarried persons in excess of $1,000 and on net incomes of married persons in excess of $2,000. Payment must be made on or before June 15, 1918. The estimated revenue to be collected this year under the War Revenue Act is $2,500,000,000, of which $666,000,000 is in individual income taxes; Last year 500,000 persons paid income taxes; this year it is estimated that the number will be more than 6,000,000.
