Ever Produced
The history in brief of Mary G Evans, the girl evangelist, who has starred East Los Angeles with her wonderful Gospel messages, is this January 13, 1891, little Mary first saw the light in Washington. D.C At the age of eight both parents had passed to the great beyond, and little Mary with two sisters, were left in a way, to light out their own destinies; however, Mary was adopted by an aunt and uncle and taken to
Young Ladies' Bible Class' and Teac
Chicago which afterwards become her permanent home.
Persons who met and knew Mary during her childhood period say that she was always very pious, but sweet in her demeanor.
Not unlike the Christ, at the age of twelve years Mary felt that it was time she was about her Father's business, so she wandered into Bethlehem church of Chicago and started the congregation when she delivered in powerful language her first Gospel message.
Miss Evans was licensed to preach at the age of 14 years. She is a graduate of Wilberforce and being held of such high esteem by that University when she graduated in 1911 it was decided by the faculty that she should study theology at Payne Theological Seminary at the expo's of Wilberforce. She then sent this country that as soon as she he can active service as an evangelist her first duty was to pay back to Wilberforce what this institution had to go on royally out on her.
Miss Evans has been a number of the Indiana Conference since she was 15 years of age in which state she has resided for the past 12 years, and in 1913 she was sent by the Indiana State Association as delegate to the World's Seventh S. S. Convention which met at Zurich, Switzerland, and while on this mission she visited Europe, Asia, Africa and spent three months in the Holy Land.
Miss Evans is also the youngest chapman ever elected by the Federated Women's Clubs of the U.S. which meets at Denver in July.
Of her 2 years' career perhaps the things that give this young woman the sweetest pleasure, and calls forth her warmest sunbeam smiles are the

In 1915 she held a revival at Cleveland, Ohio, at which time 525 persons were converted, and at Columbus, Ohio, 238 converts in the same year, and just now is engaged in what promises to be one of the biggest efforts of her life is the revival being held at the First A. M. E. church in this city.

reclaimed more than 200 souls and with two more nights for the meeting, the probabilities are that probably as many as 250 will have been brought in the fold. Miss Evans is truly a wonderful woman and a messenger indeed for the Master. Her service to Los Angeles has been such that the debt of gratitude can never be repaid. The Eagle is proud of her, of her worth, her work and service. We congratulate her; also Dr. J. Lo-
igan Craw, for bringing her here, and e for his great assistance in holding up
San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland
her hands. The people, the great common people, the masses, are duly appreciative of her wonderful service and bid her God speed where or she may go, carrying the wonderful message.
Miss Evaiah leaves here Saturday and will open a two weeks' campaign at Santa Barbara, at the end of which time she will return to Pasadena and conduct in that city another two weeks' campaign, when she will rest a few days at San Diego and after delivering a lecture at the First A.M.E. Church, this city, will return to the East to till dates nummerable. She will stop at Denver to attend the National Women's Federation on Clubs.
Without the sentilla of a lingering doubt, the greatest demonstration ever put forth by any organization in this great western country was that which was rendered under the auspices of the First A.M.E. Sunday school on last Tuesday evening, when with their entire forces, assisted by the New Hope Baptist Sunday school, Tabernacle Baptist school and Mr. Zion Baptist school, and the Sunday schools of most every church in the

city, was represented in the monster parade which was formed at the First A M E. Church, corner of Eighth and Towne avenue, at 6:30 o'clock Tuesday evening. The various members and friends vied with each other in decorating the auto trucks, and automobiles, and after the Eagle official photographer had made views of a few of the boats and scenes, the parade headed by the Angeles band was formed with Bro. True as direct
Class" of First A. M. E. Church and/or general, assisted by Mr. Paul Williams, also A. H. Keyes, Mr. Bloomfield as aides, to the strains of marital music. The line of march was cast on Eighth to Ceres avenue, then north on Ceres to Fifth street, east on Fifth street to Ceres avenue, south on Central avenue to Twelfth street, countermarching back to Eighth on Central, the procession returned to its starting point and disbanded.
Throughout the line of march thousands viewed this remarkable showing of more than thirty huge trucks and autos all loaded to their infest capacity with Sunday school children and church workers. There were many banners, representing sentiments of church work and religious uplift.
The New Hope and; Tabernacle Baptist Sunday schools made a highly credible showing, also the Mt. Zion. The Eagle appreciates the getting together of these people on this occasion; of these young people, their action is an object lesson to the older people, it was so sweet, so noble, so grand to see these boys and girls and fellow workmen for Christ lined up together for a cause, representing the idea of religious progress. It made us feel good and we know we voice the sentiment of the people when we say it made us all feel good. The parade idea was a good one and creates a healthy sentiment in one citizenship for the uplift; it demonstrates that this people will take no back seat to anyone, when it comes to building up the work of the church of Jesus Christ; that with banners flying and colors to the breeze, we will go forth like mighty warriors for the noble

Aftermath of Parade
Rev. Lively was a creditable representative of the Baptist hosts. T. A. Harris was well in evidence, as he is in all forward movements. V. H. Keys made an excellent drum major, leading the Angels band.
The Young Women's Live • Aire Club, with Mrs. J. Loyan Craw as its sponsor, formed the rear guard of the parade with flying colors. Brother True, director general, would not be left, so he brought forth his own auto. **Supt. A. W. Wilson** was all smiles over the magnificent success of the parade. **Mrs. Minnie Tucker** was the decorator de l'hive and added to the beauty of the parade. **The Angels' band** tendered woman service and Brother Eagleson is happy. The business intern are 100 per cent pure; they responded to the call nobly and furnished their trucks and autos. **L. W. Coleman**, the Employment King with his auto loaded to the guards, worthily represented the S. S. of the independent church. **Mrs. Evans**, to care for her spouse, could not take part in the parade, but just before the same started, posed for the Eagle photographer in a group picture. **Dr. Craus' Bible** class loaded the parade, and are homeward known as the partinders.
California Ablaze
With overwhelming success, the greedy lower California movement swaps on to victory. Not only has Los Angeles grasped the big opportunity of this epoch making effort but all of California is in a fever of thought and discussion over the project. From reports which come in to Los Angeles from all over the state, the Lower alpine movement is the topic of nearly all public discussions throughout the state. Some are against the movement and many are in favor of it. Even those who oppose it however, are experiencing a sort of grrightful teerish desire to see what Fortune holds below the border.
Intense interest prevails in Los Angeles and in Imperial Valley over the near departure of the joint committee which is to inspect the Valley-

Special arrangements are being made through the State Department at Washington for the trip of this committee. On enthusiastic booster in El Centro made the statement last Monday that if the committee's report is half as favorable as are the claims for the Vallecitos and Santa Clara ranches, the colored farmers of the valley would in all probability take up both of these ranches.
Outside of California the news of the great Lower California movement is gradually seeping out in spite of the fact that no effort has as yet been made to place the movement before the country. In the words of one of the leaders of the movement, "We are Giving California the first chance at the wonderful lands upon the theory that charity should begin at home. After California has had a thorough opportunity to buy, we shall place the movement before the country—and then look for the stampede."
Monday night at Ward Chapel A.M.E. church the enthusiastic gathering unanimously pledged themselves to the Lower California movement. Thursday night at 217 N. Ave. 38 another enthusiastic gathering joined forces in the movement.

The members of the Club have been using Malt Tonic, thinking that it was no violation of the law, and some time ago, an arrest was made to test this very point.
R. H. Scott, who, it was shown, has charge of the Club, was considered technically guilty and a fine of $25.00 was imposed. A. C. Richardson, who was also taken in the net when the

Sunday was up to the usual high standard at Wesley. At 11 am the pastor's sermon on "United Effort and the Joy of Success" was well received. At 3 p.m. the service, with the Railroad men and Chauffeurs, was excellent. Mr. Carl Hall was president, and Mr. E. M. Hubbs manager
The Girls Day services at night was quite a success. Much credit is due all those who took part on the program! Misses Consulna Bright, Berthella Gleem and Laura Toldt and Madmines A M Brown and O.

The Old Timers in secret session last Sunday afternoon, have made sure their plant victory. The New Comers are on the field at work as never before.

The services at this church on the last Lord's day were highly acceptable to all; the Rev J H C Reid preached a very able sermon in the morning, while the pastor spoke for Rev J H C Anderson's people at M C E Church.
Sunday, the 20th will mark the opening of our revival services which will continue for two weeks; the Rev Mrs M C Harris, the great evangelist, will be in charge. The minister and their congregations are cordially invited to be with us in these services.
The large gathering at the M P M Club Monday night, really enjoyed the splendid program rendered, and the club decided by an aminimous vote to support the revival during its progress.
The pastor requests that the singers from the various churches help out with the singing.
The surprise pound party given for the pastor and wife by the members and friends, last Monday night, headed by Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Banks, was quite a success and indeed a surprise and at the right time.
The Rev. F. C. Colman of the Christian Church, will preach the opening sermon on Monday night.

FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH NOTES
Corner 8th and Towne Ave.
Rev. J. Logan Craw, Pastor
Over the Top* with three record breaking congregations last Sabbath Day, the Mary G. Evans Revival Meeting surpassed the expectations of the most sanctioned Worldchiper. Both sermons, morning and evening, were master messages and were trought with the presence of the Holy Spirit, and the Women's meeting in the afternoon was such as has never been witnessed before in all California. Ask the women! People from every church and all denominations were turned away at each service because of the church's incapacity to accommodate the thronging multitude. Twenty-seven persons united with this church this day, while others converted and reclaimed, declared their intentions of uniting with other churches of their choice. The entire community is being wonderfully blessed and lifted to high ground by this soul saving campaign, and every church in the city will doubtless have its membership roll increased through the efforts of this grand old fashioned revival. The first two-week's record, 47 converts and 60 backsliders reclaimed, aside from the children and young folks in our Sunday School, who made a decision for Christ, in the next issue of this paper the entire number and whereabouts of accessions will be published. Meeting closes Friday night, May 24 with grand free will offering to our most worthy Evangelist, Sister Mary G. Evans
Services this Sunday as usual by the pastor. Every member reclaimed and recently converted, with the loyal soldiers of this Historic Church and friends and visitors are urged to be punctual in attendance. Two special messages will be delivered. Everybody we come.

F. C. Cothran, Minister
The pastor preached two powerful sermons, 11 a.m., "Condition of Discipleship." It is possible for one to be a disciple and yet not be one indeed, referring us to John 8:31 as proof, Jesus speaking directly to those Jews who had believed on him, if ye abide in my word then are ye truly my disciples. Feeling is not enough, you must know you are right. Feeling will often deceive us, don't ever trust your feeling, take God's word for it then you will not

only feel right but you are right. The man who follows after the traditions of men feels right, but there is only one way, that is the way of the Lord, the foundation being Jesus Christ. The person who does not go forward is in the wilderness, where all kinds of temptations are. Go forward, get in the land of Promise, you may feel all right in the wilderness if you abide in the word of Jesus, you must go one. He was there tempted of the devil torty days, he went forth a visitor, so he bids us to follow him. Abide in my word. The ordination of the pastor in the afternoon was so very impressive, it should remain with us. The charge to the congregation calls us to many mistakes in the post. We welcome those visiting brethren, especially Rev. Price and wife and members.

Last Sunday was a day filled with good things at this church. In the splendid Sunday School session at 9:45 am, we were favored in having with us the assistant superintendent of our Southern California Churches, in the person of Miss S. E. Bundy, who is giving part of our time to caring people work. She greatly inspired young people in illuminating address. Dr H. P. Case, the State Sunday School Superintendent, was present at the morning service and brought us a splendid message, taking his text, "Be not deserved. God is not mocked, for whatsover a man soweth that shall be also reap." (Gal 6:7)
Following a helpful session of the Christian Endeavor Society, the evening service was given over to hearing reports from the delegates who attended the conference in Pasadena, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of last week.
Next Sunday, May 26, the services promise to be of unusual interest. The pastor will occupy the pulpit at the morning service and speak on "The Armor of God."

SANTA MONICA ACTIVITIES OF PHILLIS WHEATLEY RED CROSS AUXILIARY
We feel very much put out over the statement in the Santa Monica social items in last week's issue of this worthy paper, that the Benefit Dancer to be given on May 29, by seven girls of the auxiliary, is to be strictly invitational. The reporter has made a great error in making such a statement and we want you to know that no such thing is to be. We have mailed invitation tis true. That is merely one avenue of our advertising system. You know there are people who never read Negro publications, others who take them merely for the local or social column. We want your support and we can't ask it and limit our benefits to such strictness as invitations. All of you are invited. Your friends and your friend's friends, etc.

BURNS DEFEATS CRACK BILLIARD PLAYER AT SEAL BEACH
Watson 7 Burris, the professional billiard of the Pacific Coast, copied last week and billiard instruction is provided with the one by meeting and discussing. Carl B. Houston at Seal Beach in a team game of 500 points played in 1922. Now Houston is one of the best billiard players on the Pacific coast, but to Burris they all look alike and so steadily but surely debate the best of them. The local player at the black speaks highly of Burris and we approve the same most likely for Mr. Burris, not only a champion billiard player, but the player of the professional billiard is a thorough man.
The following is an account from the 12th Black paper giving an account of the game.
The contest was played in two series: 250 points each. In the afternoon series Burns made 250 points and Houston 140. In the evening Houston added 179 points to his score which Burns was making another 250. The match between the local man and burns created considerable interest. There was a good crowd of spectators both afternoon and evening.
Burns is a natural billiardist. He plays a chain game, is careful in making shots and works for position. He made several intricate shots that won bond applause. His highest run in the afternoon was 28; evening, 33. Houston's high runs were 18 and
REPORT FROM THE BOY
SCOUTS' CAMP
By Assistant Sout Master H. E. Wilson and E. W. Banks of the Tyler Troop of Furlong Tract.
We had the pleasure of spending 3 days in the camp with Troop Five of Pasadena. We were extended the greatest hospitality. As we did not reach camp until a late hour of the night we were met by the guard and welcoming us and we worked their work and went through the same stationation of work for the three days as they did. The camp is one of the prettiest mountain places in Southern California. As we were the first of our Race people to visit the camp, Mr. Chesman and all camp officers made it as pleasant for us as they could. The camp is located about 2 miles back in the mountains from Hollywood Park, surrounded by the mountains of which one, the "battle mountain," is one of the highest in this section of the country.
We are now getting our boys ready to take them up for a week end trip to camp, the middle of next month. There is so much to explain that we will have to continue it is next week's winter.
Darkness drove them from the courts at West Side and Alpha, Sunday.
We accidentally discovered the ladies of the West Side Club stealing a march on the members of the Ladies' Anxiary to the Apha Tennis Club, by pretending every afternoon as well as all day Sunday. We will call no names, but suspect Mrs. Win Allen and Mrs. Joe Prosper.
Miss Fern Caldwell of the Ladies' Anxiary to the Alpha Tennis Club, distinguished herself Sunday by winning a hard contest game with a certain young man, who bags not to have his name disclosed. Score—Caldwell vs. ——— 6-4, 4-6, 7-5.
C. Williams and P. Williams defeated A. Matthews and P. Davis, 4-6, 6-4, 7-5. P. Williams and P. Davis lost to C. Williams and A. Matthews, 6-3, 7-5, 3-6.
