The Mortgage Burning and Pioneer Night brought to a fitting close, the week of festivities at the great First A. M. E. Church, on last Thursday evening. Realistic indeed were the scenes incident 'thereto. Seated on the platform were the pioneer colored citizens of Los Angeles. It was a scene never to be forgotten by those who witnessed the same. These old gladiators, who in years past had done their bit in establishing this great church, sat there as witnesses, ready to attest their seal as to the history of the same, which was unfolded with the following program, and good Brother True, although not fortunate as to be one of the pioneers, was just as interested as if he had been the oldest one there, and with the officers of the church he helped in adding dignity to the affair.

Mrs. D. R. Jones. I have been asked to tell how I found the church. The best I can do is to begin to tell you how I found the church 25 years ago. I will preface my remarks with a word about our Conference which preceded my advent here. The month of August, in the year 1893, was an eventful one in the annals of African Methodism on the Pacific Coast. The 29th Annual Conference was held at Marysville, August 9 to 13, and was visited by two distinguished prelates, Bishop B. F. Lee, the Presiding Bishop, and Bishop James A. Handy, also, a prospective Bishop in the person of Dr. L. J. Coppin, and an aspirant for Financial Secretary, Dr. Phillip A. Hubbard. Both reached the goal to which they aspired. Bishop Coppin is at present serving the Fourth Episcopal District. Dr. Hubbard passed from the financial chair to his final reward many years ago. The Conference was also graced by the presence of three prominent women, Sister Bishop Handy, Vice President W. M. M. Society; Sister Fannie J. Coppin, noted educator, and Sister Hannah Hubbard. From San Francisco, our former parish, after a few days' delay occasioned by the publication of the Conference minutes, husband, daughter and myself proceeded to Los Angeles, our new charge, arriving Sun- ```markdown ``` The California Eagle day, August 27, about 1 p. m. We went to my mother's home on Azusa Street, near the church. It being the costume to hold class immediately following the morning service, the meeting was soon dismissed and a number of the members came to the house to greet us, among them Father Cyrus Vena and Mother Elvira Norris. The people were apparently pleased and received us gladly. The membership comprised about 125 persons, including probationers, scattered far and wide over a city noted for its vast area, and its inclination to include in its corporate limits every pebble and stone between the mountains and the sea. Some members lived as far distant as Santa Monica, Long Beach, Pasadena, Monrovia, San Gabriel, and Pomona. Though scattered from one end of the city to the other, and beyond the limits, there was solidarity of thought and acion, a unison of spiritual power and alertness that made Stevens A. M. E. Church, as it was then known, a potent factor in the religious, moral, educational and civic life of the community. The people were in a receptive frame of mind. They seemed to be hungering and thirsting after righteousness. A revival was started at once. At the first, meeting, Sunday evening, Sister Carrie McClane held up her hand for prayer and was converted. A number of others followed and the interest grew until scores were converted and added to the church. The meetings continued for seven weeks with remarkable manifestations of the power of God in the salvation of souls. The church edifice at this time was located on Azusa St., in the business district, was a frame structure of two stories, occupying a lot about 50 feet by 120 feet. A parsonage of 50 feet was in the rear. This property had been purchased several years before, costing about $8000, and was at this time something over $600 in debt, distributed as follows: $3000 to a Mr. Donegan, $1000 to Rev. J. Allen, $1600 to Sister Polly Smith and numerous small accounts. To maintain the church and lift the burden of debt was no small matter, but the noble people bent themselves to the task, put their shoulders to the wheel and met their obligations promptly until Mr. Donegan was paid in full with interest, and the debt of Sister Polly Smith was settled by the payment to her of $1300 in cash. I recall some of the splendid men and women who were active in the church at this time. I will name them as they come to mind, and without comment: Cyrus Vena, Charles Clarkson, John Banks, John Sanders, Abraham Curtis, B. T. Talbot, Harry Franklin, Charles Parker, J. W. Marsailles, L. F. Fanner, Julius Maxwell, H. W. Spiller, A. B. McCollough, Jackson Harris, William Wells, Elvira Nortis, Nancy Fulgen, Harriet McNeil, Bessie Owens, Eliza Posey, Eliza Warner, Fannie Warner, Emily Clarkson, Jennie Lewis, Mary E Bronson, Mary Harris, Ellen Keen, Sarah Tompkins, Virginia Nelson, Marie Nelson, Emma Anderson, Amanda Spiller, Fannie Seals, Hattie Lewis, Ellen Huddleson, Mary Harney, Harriet Brown, Maria Dundan, S. W. Calvin, Rebecca Sanders, Rachel Lee, Polly Smith, Alvaine Murphy, NaNnine Buford, Minnie Cunningham, Mamie Newman, Emily Baker, Nannie Reynolds, Julia Maxwell, Cora E. Finney, Carrie White, and a host of others, enough to fill many pages, whom I found ready and determined to "wrestle, fight, and pray the battle ne'er give o'er." These all, by their sacrifices and labors of love, made it possible for us to be here tonight. I wish I had time to describe the excellent character of many of these noble servants of God and to speak of their worth and achievements in the various walks of life, which they filled so well. Some of the names will not be recognized because they have been changed by marriage since we first found them here engaged in the Master's work. Some have reached the fields Elysian on the other side of Jordan, in the sweet land of Eden, and are at rest with the Lord, singing "Home at Last." Part of the host are still with us and sing as they cast a wistful eye beyond the flood, "When shall I reach that happy place and be forever blest?" When shall I see my father's face and in His bosom rest?" I can hear them San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, MARCH 23, 1918 exultantly say with Job, "All the days of my appointed time will I wait until my change comes. Thou wilt call and I will answer thee." Thus we found them, 25 years ago, thus we find them today—strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might. "OUR CHURCH OF TODAY" A. H. Wilson, Trustees and Steward. I came to Los Angeles, California, on the 23rd day of April, 1903. After finding a room, I went direct to the A. M. E. Church on Azusa street. I was directed by Sister Long, who was then living at 129 Vine street. I found a small church; I suppose a little over 300 members. They were at that time fixing to build this church where we now are dwelling. We had a small Sunday School at this time. Bro. Nelson was the Superintendent. I think we had about five or six classes. I don't remember the exact number. The people were working together just fine. I heard the pastor, Rev. J. E. Edwards, give out one Sunday that we would have a ground-breaking on the next Sunday, so we came over and broke the ground and started this grand old building. In November, 1903, we moved into this grand old building. Our congregation was small, because only a few people were in Los Angeles at this time. The church began to grow. After Rev. J. E. Edwards left, Rev. W. H. Peck was appointed to this charge, and he went to work and put in this great pipe organ. He finished his work, then came to us Rev. J. F. Peck, the great pastor of the day. He built up this great choir of ours, which stands as one of the greatest choirs in the United States today. The City put a great debt on us of 6000. When Rev. J. F. Peck left us the indebtedness was upon us for $3975. He built up a great congregation and then left us. The next pastor found us in debt. He stayed with us two years, paid $815 on the debt and borrowed $300 from the Mutual Aid Society. When he left he left us in debt $3460. Now the church of today, as we now stand. This great pastor, Rev. J. Logan Craw, came to us on the 3rd day of October, 1915. He found the church in a very bad condition, which you all know, and he did not complain of anything, but went to work. Interest was due. He went to work the first Sunday and raised $121, $11 over the amount that was due. He found the basement in a very bad condition. You can see it today. It is nicely fixed up, and we call it our Banquet Hall. This great pastor saw that $3460 was upon this church of ours, and said to his people, "Let us pay this debt off." We said "Yes." This great pastor was with us two years, one month, and six days, and we were out of debt. This pastor has done a great work, with the assistance of his dear wife, one of the greatest women I ever met. I have never seen her equal as a pastor's wife. May God bless both of you. The first year this pastor was here he took into the church-147 members; last year, 201 members; this year, up to the present date, 127. Total members taken in, 485. This pastor has only been with us two years, five months, and 11 days, up to today. So you can see what a great work he has done the church of 1903 and the church of 1918. So this pastor has got this church of today standing in the front ranks, second to none. You can see the work going on now. When it is finished we will have a fine church. Our Dollar Money for 1903 was $200. At our laat Annual Conference we sent up $551. Our increase since 1903 has been $351. Great progress has this church made. SECOND ANNUAL STATE RALLY DAY AT WESLEY M. E. CHURCH At a helper in the drive for $3000 to receive $1000 from the City Missionary Society on our debt, Wesley M.E. Church will hold the second annual State Rally this Sunday. Offerings will be taken by states, both morning and evening. Everybody, without regard to denomination, will help his or her native state in this effort. Texas feels very keenly her slight defeat by Kansas and Missouri at the First A. M. E. church, and will cooke back with a vengeance. Look out. All are cordially invited to attend one of the services on Sunday. N. P. Shaw, pastor THE S. P. CAFE I stopped in the other morning in quest of a tasty breakfast. I certainly got it. The best coffee I ever remember tasting in a restaurant, and real cream, not skimmed milk, to flavor it. On my toast I put a butter, nothing olomargarinish about it. I certainly enjoyed it. My attention was attracted first by the atmosphere of courtesy which impressed itself upon you the longer you lingered. The idea of pleasing customers seemed uppermost in the minds of the waitresses. Next, the menu itself was equal to any test. The most fastidious taste can be satisfied. You can actually get lobster salad any hour or day in the week. If you have ever ordered ham and eggs when you felt like eating fried rabbit, you can appreciate this. If a Cinco or Robert Burns between your teeth will help you to enjoy your meal, you can find a corner in a cozy little room, where nobody will be offended but yourself. Service impressed me as being the motto. By service, I mean getting your money's worth along with good treatment. Many of our business men forget that service builds up a business. After all, it matters not that you are black or brown, I may like you and all that, but when I spend my money I want service. I don't ask the service I would get from Mr. Childs or Mr. Letts, but you must take care to do your best. If you pay for ham here, you get ham and not shavings. If not satisfied you are not allowed to pay. Above all, the fact that over twelve members of our race were on the payroll impressed me most. We have been craving to see such enterprises launched. Here we are, now what shall we do? I met the proprietor, Mr Anderson. A man with ideals, race pride, and grit. He is bound to win. We should help him in his rise. You can take your wife sweetheart or sister there and not be shamed by any rowdism. Inasmuch as Mr Anderson is fostered in our country, I record with the policy of the Eagle to booste all who ring true. I ask you when down that way stop in. REV B. C ROBESON. RED HORSE AND, HIS RIDER DRAWS GREAT CROWD LAST SUNDAY. — DR. JONES IS TO PREACH COMPANION SERMON, SUNDAY, VIZ. "WHITE HORSE AND HIS RIDER." The forceful Divine and great gospel preacher faced a crowded house on last Sunday afternoon. The announcement had gone forth that he would preach his far-famed sermon, "Red Horse and His Rider." This is a remarkable sermon, in which the prophesies of the Bible, particularly in Revelation, are set forth with rare force and ability. Dr. Jones gives an enlightening of passing events and by the Bible convinces the most skeptical the reasons and why's. Owing to its direct application to the present world war, this sermon has created even greater interest. On next Sunday, at 3 o'clock, at 2021 Central Ave., he will preach the companion sermon, "The White Horse and His Rider." No one who can possibly do so should fail to hear this sermon. THINGS WORTH WHILE $60,000 Apartment at Jefferson and Normandia, plans about complete. This week Mr. Curt L. W. Silverschmidt placed in escrow a deed to the lot, this deed is made to the, Hellman Com. Trust and Savings Bank, 3rd and Spring St. The building is to be built and the lot will be bought out of the sale of 600 bonds of one hundred cach. The bonds as soon as they are purchased will draw interest at 7% per annum payable semi-annually. If the money paid into the bank cannot be used to purchase said lot and build said building within 6 months, the bank will return all money together with 4% interest for the time it was held. This seems to be the most safe_bond proposition ever put on the market by local promoters. Never has there been a time when one could invest their money at such high rate of interest and with such safety. These bonds can be used as collateral as security or could be disposed with at almost their face value at any time. UNDERSTAND THAT A BOND IS NOT LIKE A SHARE OF STOCK, A BOND IS A CERTAIN PER CENT OF A FIRST 1. The image contains a black rectangle with a white border. 2.

Mr. Reynolds was a man who was keenly alive to the condition of his fel- MORTGAGE AGAINST THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION. It is safe as long as the building and lot last. ITS SECURITY IS THE EARTH. THEREFORE I T IS PERPETUAL. This is the best opportunity that my people have had to show other races that we deserve some recognition. We have protested, howled about our rights while the Japs and other nationalities have been building and promoting the results are the Japs have 10 to 1 better opportunities here in Los Angeles. We are segregated almost in every place where one can get around the law. WE ARE NOT WANTED IN ANY PLACES OF AMUSEMENT OR PUBLIC ACCOMMODATION WE ARE NOT WANTED IN ANY HIGH CLASS NEIGHBORHOOD TO REAR OUR CHILDREN WE ARE NOT WANTED IN ANY HOUSE AS A TENANT UNTIL THE OWNERS ARE SURE THAT THE OWNER CANNOT RENT IT TO JAPS OR MEXICANS OR CHINESE. We are always last. STILL WE HAVE A CHANCE LET'S DO FOR OURSELVES by making this little start, and keep a going. REMEMBER THE BONDS TO BUILD THIS BUILDING ARE AS SAFE AS THE MONEY IN THE BANK AND DRAWS LARGER INTEREST THAN IT WOULD IN THE BANK AND TOO, IT GOES TOWARDS SOLVING THE RACE PROBLEM RIGHT HERE IN LOS ANGELES WE TALK ABOUT THE SOUTH. BUT START OUT TOMORROW LOOKING FOR A HOUSE TO RENT AND EVERY DECENT HOUSE YOU SEE ASK TO RENT IT AND FIND OUT WHAT THE WHITE OWNER WILL TELL YOU. Shall we wait longer? Now is the time. Information can be had by call at 1103% Central Ave. Sidney P. Dones, 3rd at Spring. Remember, $5.00 will start you, and $5.00 per month will carry you and the race to victory. SUBJECT ANNOUNCED FOR REVEDY RANSOME LEC-TURE Everything is moving on nicely and a monster attendance is assured for the Ransome lecture at Trinity Auditorium on the evening of April 8th. Rev. Ransome wised his subject upon which he will speak on this occasion: "A Challenge to the American Knight Errand of World's Democracy." Mrs. Littleton McDuff is a patient at the California Hospital where she underwent an operation for appendicitis. She is reported by her husband, Officer McDuff, as improving. THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 6 GE Reynolds lowman, with great strength of character and the highest ideals. His ambition was along literary lines and art, and his efforts along these lines were indeed worthy. His funeral service was conducted from the parlors of Russell and Conner last Tuesday. He leaves a wife and married daughter and a host of friends to mourn his loss. The Eagle extends its sympathy to the family in this, their sad hour of sorrow. OKLAHOMA BUSINESS MAN PURCHASES FARM IN IMPERIAL VALLEY T. L. Woods, prominent merchant of Boley, Okla, which is the largest city in the U. S. populated entirely by Colored people, and who came here for a visit with his father, C. H. Woods, retired business man and former resident of Oklahoma, after a week's visit has left for his home in Boley, but before leaving he visited the mighty Imperial Valley, and liked the country that he purchased one of the best ranches in the valley, located just one mile from Calapatria. The price paid for is $22,000.00 and thus a keen, foresight of a successful business man, bears out the Eagle's slogan, "We must become producers. Imperial Valley and Lower California are the mecca." NOTES FROM THE 365TH INF. At Camp Grant, Ill. Tuesday night we were treated to a recital by the famous colored tenor. Roland Hayes. John A. Gray was the accompanist. The services of our talented John A. Gray are much in demand these days. Tuesday night he was chosen to play for Roland Hayes. Wednesdays and Sundays he furnishes the music for the services at the Y. M. C. A. Saturday night he was detailed by General Barnum to play with the 365th orchestra at a reception in (Continued on page 8) What the Churches are Doing PAGE TWL MOUNT ZION BAPTIST Peace and birdratherly love reign in Zion, under the leadership of this young minister of God.

The pastor delivered both sermons and there was one accession to the church membership. "The Beautifying Rally Fund" was continued, and greater loyalty was never displayed by a church membership anywhere than by the faithful men and women, boys and girls of this historic church. The rally closes this Sunday night, when the pastor will announce the exact amount collected to pay for beautifying and repairing our church property. The record will be framed. Let everyone who has not done "your bit," do it this Sunday and the honor the church will be read by future generations. Everybody is welcome to help in this noble project.

Anderson, Pastor Two splendid congregations worshipped this church on the past Lord's day and were benighted by the services. The pastor preached at the morning service and the congregation was awed at night to have Rev J H Clark at El Centro station preach for them. The choir continues to please the congregations with their sweet music. They will render a special program on Easter night at which time they will render the cantata, "The Spirit of Easter" by Handel. This promises to be one of the treats of the season and all indications point to a packed house at this service. Come early and secure a good seat. The congregational singing is a marked feature of this church and friends, visitors and strangers are always welcome. THE PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST Two large congregations were insured by the soul stirring services at the People's Independent Church last Sunday. Pastor Greggds delivered two burning messages. His subject in the morning was "Glorifying God", in the evening "Keeping Step". Seven accessions "to membership were recorded, one being happily converted. The members of this church have renewed their zeal since the rally and the enthusiasm is now greater than ever. Another club called the Loyal Legion was organized last week and is already making wonderful progress. The officers of this club are Mrs. E. Grahau, president; Mrs. Mallory, secretary; Mrs. M. King, vice president. Great preparations are being made for Easter. In the morning the pastor will deliver the Easter sermon. In the afternoon the Sunday school children will render an excellent program, and in the evening the choir will offer another grand sacred concert. The church will be beautifully decorated in keeping with the occasion. WARD CHAPEL The men's big evangelistic rally on last Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. m was a grand success. Rev. F.

Africa has only one missionary to every 133,000 souls. Our Easter songs are good. Two of them by Dr. Tindley, a man of our own people. Surely this great Africa should be known to all our people in churches and schools. Africa contains one-fourth of all the land surface of the whole earth, and one-seventh of all the people in the world live in Africa. Colored Baptists during the last 33 years have given to Africa 62 workers, and trained more than 100 native workers and evangelists. Africa's natural wealth equals that of any other two continents. Africa produces one-third of the world's gold and 90 per cent. of all the diamonds. The Easter program is a reproduction of the book "Mediterranean Book" "African Adventures," which beautifully portrays the work of Christianity among African tribes. With all Africa's natural wealth, there is a greater wealth of 180,000,000 or more gold and land and they need the gospel. Will we go, let go or help go? At it, all at it all the time. Let every pastor see that every department of his church joins the Sunday school on the fifth Sunday of March in the Easter exercises, so all may help our children to learn it imperative that we be loyal to the Lord as never before. For years the Foreign Mission Board has sent from 100,000 to 250,000 programs to our Sunday schools. This year because of the tremendous cost of material given to those who will remember our Foreign Mission work on Easter Sunday. After 21 years of my work, best self given to instructing our Baptist Zion in the redemption of Africa, on this February 13 my twenty-first anniversary. I am as fast and undone! The little one on our church will give weekly and report monthly will greatly aid our workers and cheer your old field hand. Yours in His Service. L. G. JORDAN. Ewen Blidge., 51 S. 19th St., Phila.

SECOND BAPTIST Our Sunday school was full of bright faces last Sunday morning and the exercises justified the evident outpouring of the children. The 11 o'clock service was largely attended and the service marked by the evidence of the Lord's presence. The presentation of Chaplain and Mrs. Gladden's little child for God's blessing was observed with pleasurable interest. At night the sacred musical concert, with Prof. Bradley as leader, was most excellently carried out. Mrs. Hulbert deserves much credit for promoting it. The choir of the old Second church certainly showed itself. The renditions under the direction of Prof. Greer were most delightful, as pronounced by persons of a critical turn. On Sunday coming, the annual sermon of the Knights of Pythias will be preached in the Second church by Dr. Proudd in the afternoon. The Bapstats of the city and in other parts of the state are preparing for the United Eazair for the benefit of the Old Folks' Home. WESLEY M. E. CHURCH Sunday was a great day at Weekly M. E. Church.

There is no question but what mayor Woodman would have been a factor in the race. As mayor of California's largest city, he has measured up to the job and has exemplified the fact that he is thoroughly capable of executing the big things of statecraft and in a way which reflects credit upon all the people. If there are those who have any idea of crossing bats with Supervisor Delovey in the second district, they had better save time, worry, and expense, for Delovey is just the man needed on that board, and the people are going to keep him there. He is truly a representative of the people. The race for sheriff of this county promises to be quite a lively affair, and great preparations are being made in several quarters for a guelling contest. ```markdown ``` --- PAGE FOUR POLITICAL POT PIE As time flies the plot thickens, and before another month passes, who can tell as to who will be in the gubernatorial race, with the returns of the Hon.

Colored regiments abroad snare in the small comforts and supplies that the Y. M. C. A. extends to our soldiers. Any plans for the happiness and well-being of the troops include them. LeRoy Ferguson of Louisville, Ky., a colored secretary of the Association with the American Expeditionary Force in Europe, tells in an article which has just been received in the country, of the colored steved res' Christmas tree, dinner, etc. Under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. the colored stevedore regiments had a real American Merry, Christmas. In the center of the Association hut, decorated and illuminated, stood their Christmas tree, its inviting branches filled with souvenirs. OLD PLANTATION SONGS AND CAROLS. The men, who gathered there in great numbers for the occasion, responded heartily to the Christmas spirit. Many of them said afterward that the trees not only brought back the spirit of Christmas, but fond recollections of their far-off American homes. This was evident during the evening when they sang heartily, as they only know how to sing, the old plantation melodies and Christmas carols of America. Good cheer, melody and fellowship blended, and one could see in their upifted faces and pleased gestures the joy that the occasion brought them. When the souvenirs, donated by friends in America, were distributed, so great was their surprise that their appreciation could scarcely be expressed. Then the Christmas dinner came and joyous was the praise bestowed upon it. The dinner was served in the mess hall of the men at camp. This was the bill of fare. Figs Turkey Jelly Potatoes Apple Pie Cake Nuts Christmas was a day the colored stevedores will long remember, as wil their friends in America, in appreciation of their Y. M. C. A. STEVEDORES FEED THE ARMY The colored stevedore regiments, by the nature of their work, render of great service to the nation. It is they who unload the cargoes. It is said them that "they feed the army." Cleaner living and more contentment are already the results of what the Y. M. C. A. is accomplishing in providing for the stevedores' recreation and betterment. The Association building is well located. It has light and warmth and all the facilities possible. Special attention has been given by the Association officials to this position. ```markdown ``` EVERY DAY A GALA DAY—AT NIGHT To what extent the hut administers to colored soldiers is shown by this outline of a regular weekly program.

M. C. A. possible. WATTS NEWS Sunday was a fine day and everybody seemed anxious to get to the house of the Lord. Both churches were well represented by those who are signals for Christ.

Why an Automobile Is an Essential During the nineteenth century a wise genius, man, invented a something and called it an "Automobile," and that is what we are to write about today. Since the invention of an automobile, they proved satisfactory. They were clean to the streets, roads, easy, looked decent, gentle and mild. They can be driven by a child as well as an older person. Gradually the machinee increased, and the production of horses decreased. Finally there were a vast amount of automobiles and few horses, and the automobile became essential. For the following an automobile is: (a) convenience; (b) comfort; (c) efficiency; (d) cleanliness; (e) for quick transportation where railroads are not at hand. The machine is essential for the sake of humanity. Often we find it of an importance to take long trips, THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE M. G. STOKES M. Real Estate and Fire Insurance Broker 1333 East Twelfth Street Fone Broadway 3130 but deem it a sin to drive a poor horse to hard. Take the large cities, for instance, with the large population, and substitute all the machines you see for horses and wagons. You can easily see why the automobiles are essential. They are essential because other means of convenience and transport has decreased to such an extent WOULD SUPPRESS PAPERS "Such papers also should be suppressed. They have no place in our American life, certainly no place on the American war program. "Nebraska normally produces 70- 000000 bushels of wheat by cooperation with the United States agricultural department and the extension division of the University of Defense there have been enough additional acreage of wheat sown in Nebraska this winter to produce 80- 000000 bushels of wheat next summer."

McVea's orchestra will furnish the music, and the nominal charge of fifty cents will be made for admission. Everybody knows that milk is higher now than it was a few months ago; everybody knows that for the mothers who must struggle to keep the wolf from their doors while taking care of babies, the bare necessities of life are harder to procure now, than ever before in our generation. We are sure that the colored people of Los Angeles want every colored baby in Los Angeles to have a fair chance for life; that the numerical strength of the race suffer no diminution. When we protect the children of the race and care for them, we protect ourselves. Now, instead of calling on the public to make personal donations to meet the financial needs of this splendid institution at this time, the committee offers the public its money's worth in the entertainment that is planned for then at Blanchard Hall; and thus the babies will be helped, while at the same time the public will be entertained in a harmless and proper pleasure. I urge the public to attend this charity hall. Even those who do not participate in dancing should some or at least buy a ticket. The cause is worthy, humane and racial. Our children are not cared for in institutions other than our own. The cost to each person is fully nominal, and the opportunity for social concourse and enjoyment is abundant. Being myself a member of the church, I look, ordinarily, at dancing with that degree of horror common to the puritanical and strict church-goers; but for reason of the landible and humane cause that the need of the children presents, I shall, in this instance, break my puritanical rule, at least to the extent of going to Blanchard Hall. Easter Monday night, and listening to the music. I hope no one there will either tell my pastor or ask me to dance. Don't forget the date. Easter Monday night, April 1. WILLIS O. TYLER. Rockford. The 365th Infantry band has increased its membership to fifty pieces and it has the earmarks of becoming a close rival to the old 24th Infantry band. The Medical Corps Detachment organized a men's chorus Friday night under the supervision of Capt. Julian Dawson and Sergt. Hayes. John A. Gray was elected musical instructor, Raymond Isum, secretary, and Thomas Pollock, treasurer. William J. Thomas has been detailed to the 365th Regiment Postoffice as clerk. Mike Taylor has resumed his duties as supply sergeant after having been in the line for a few days. No doubt Mike is pleased to get indoors once more. The snow has melted and the mud is ankle deep. There are only a few cases of sickness in the camp at present. Most of them being mumps. Eighteen hundred men from Camp Sherman were transferred to the 365th last week. The regiment will soon be up to war strength (3,600). California can boast of holding two championships in boxing in the 365th Infantry. Adrian Youle has annexed the lightweight championship and Young Jack Johnson (James Green) has whipped the heavyweight champion of the regiment. James-A. Buford of Santa Monica has also cleaned all comers to date. Roy Boydstone of Imperial Valley got a decision in his fight. California is truly holding her own. DR.
