A practical demonstration of his efficiency, of his worth, his talent, his genius, was manifested at his pupils annual recital at T.M.A. Mall on last Tuesday evening, at 24th. The music lovers of this section book forward each year for this occasion, as Prof Wilkins renders annually an account of his activities as the head of Wilkins' Studio of Music. He maintains and conducts the most prestigious musical studio for the members of the race west of Kansas City and from this school has come forth some remarkable talent, and it is a revelation, the productions which he brings forth at the annual pupils' recital. The wee little tots there with musical grace and dignity, and performs right out for the edification of the people, as well as the youth, the matron and the more advanced in years. It is marvelous indeed to note HOLINESS CONVENTION The First Holiness Convention of the Church of Christ (Holiness) in the State of California, will convene Sunday, June 2, 1918, under the big tent located on the north-east corner of Hooper and Adams streets. THE MISSING MAN WAS A MEN WITH A SPECIAL TREATMENT FOR HIS SPECIAL TREATMENT FOR HIS SPECIAL TREATMENT REV. W. A.

There will be one Convention Week, followed by a three weeks Union Revival and Holiness Meeting REV. CHAS. P. JONES Elder Wm. A. Washington, pastor of Bethel Church of Christ (Holiness) and State Overseer, and Dr. C. P. Jones pastor of Tabernacle the things which Prof. Wilkins has brought forth. It is useless for us to attempt detail on this program. It was par excellence as a whole, and space will not permit individual mention. A feature was a short address by Prof. Carl Bronson, noted musical critic, who lauded the work of Prof. Wilkins to the highest. His talk was both interesting and illuminating. The Shakespeare act, Macbeth II, by Webb King and Miss Ruth Sykes, was a feature. There was a profusion of flowers by admiring friends for the various participants on the program, a crowded house greeted them, and it was a most notable event and the people appreciate the worth and merit of Prof. Wilkins more and more. STELLAR EVENT With the many joys of spring and summer comes the Bibrow and Atkinson's Jubilee Quintette, a new organization of versitility artists effervescing with music, mirth and humor to please the most fastidious. This company will make their debut on Thursday evening, June 13, at the Lyceum or T. M. A. Hall. This promises to be one of the most enjoyable evenings for the music loving people of Los Angeles since the days of the coming of Williams' and Buckner's Jubilee Singers into our midst. The well known and talented Bibrows, associated with Prof M Edw Atkinson, who is an under-study of the famous Robert G. Jackson of Kansas City, and formerly, of the Buckner Concert Company, also former teacher in the Wm T Wilkins School of Music, ought to be guarantee enough of a perfect evening, besides the other two gentlemen, Messrs Longress and Hanley, who also are stars in their line. Mr. Longress is a Seattle gentleman discovered by Bibrow and Atkinson as a diamond in the rough, and now ready to present him to you with a rich, pleasing tenor voice, an Church of Christ, and President of the National Convention, will be in charge, assist 1 by other pastors and evangelists Ave. car willbring you direct to the tent, set off at Adams St. Take Watts of South Pasadena THE NEW YORK TIMES and get off at Adams St. and walk west on Adams to tent Elder Wm. A. Washington, State Overseer Dr. C. P. Jones, President of National Convention ANNUAL SERMON United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of the Mysterious Ten Last Sunday was a gala day with the members and their friends of this great order when, headed by the Angelus band, they paraded the streets of the city, from their hall north on Central to Eighth to Stanford, back south to Paloma and Eighteenth street to the Independent Church, where they formed in open order and the sisters of the S. M. T. marched through into the auditorium of the church. And now, let us say that their showing on this occasion was a revelation. It looked as though every woman in Los Angeles was a member. There were more than 200 sisters in line and nearly 100 juveniles. The program was indeed a splendid one. A. L. Tilton, the deputy grand master, was introduced as master of ceremonies, and filled that position with rare grace and dignity. Mr. Tilton is a man who in a quiet and unassuming way is a towser of strength to whatever he sets his hand, and on this occasion he displayed rare tact and skill in presenting the various numbers. He placed the order on the top shelf and claimed for it as the peer of all orders west of the Rockies. Ca. Service THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT AIL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 16 table lead voice and full of fire. Mr. Carl Hanley, known to some as a very fine bass soloist singer of rare ability. He is also formerly an understudy of Prof. Jackson and later traveled with one of the Buckner companies, organized, coached and managed by Mr. Atkinson. Mrs. A. C. Bilbrow is a splendid accompanist and possesses a rich and rare contralto voice which she uses with telling effect, and as dialect reader is in a class all her own. Mr. Ralph Bilbrow is small in statue but weighted down with talent. He possesses a light but pathetic and compelling baritone voice, a humorist every inch of him and now a banjoist of no mean ability. on the program for an address. He proved himself a live wire and invoked the greatest enthusiasm. He is worthy of the high office which he holds. The State Grand Princess, Mrs. Sarah Shores, who is the grand head of the S. M. T., made a short address full of thought and worthy advice. She made an exceptionally good address and worthily indeed represents this great body of women. She hit telephone gossiping a mighty blow. She said if your mind is not in the proper attitude to "Stay away from the phone." Miss M. Busby made a very splendid paper. The choir of the Independent church rendered real music and it is indeed a high credit. The climax of the afternoon was the wonderful sermon preached by Rev N. P. Gregg, the pastor of this church. We have heard this eminent divine on many occasions, but on this especial occasion it seems that all of his previous efforts paled into insignificance. With a wonderful force, he brought out the reality of Christian fellowship and the true mission of fraternal effort. He gave full credit to all the forces of this order, and made a strong plea for a stronger bond of union for all Christian forces for the uplift of humanity. At the close of the sermon, the collection and announcements, the order again took up their line of march back to their hall, and thus came to a close a memorable and notable event. NOTES OF THE C. M. E. GENERAL CONFERENCE WHICH MET IN CHICAGO Rev. W. M. Seldon, D.D., Presiding Elder of the Los Angeles District of the C. M. E. Church, has returned from Chicago, where he attended the General Conference of said Church. He reports that the General Conference was the greatest in the history of the Church; a full delegation was in attendance and much needed legislation was enacted. The reports from the different departments of the Church were the best ever rendered by the General Officers. The Quadrennial Address was delivered by the scholarly Bishop C. H. Phillips, D.D., of Nashville, Tennessee. Resolutions were passed favoring the organic union of the A. M. E. A. M. E. Z., and C. M. E. churches. The maternal greetings of the A. M. E. and A. M. E. Z. churches, by Dr P. W. Walls of Montgomery, Ma. and Dr C. W. P. Mitchell of Little Rock, Ark. were master pieces, each speaker spote in favor of the union of the Churches. Many distinguished visitors were in attendance during the session. No new Bishops were elected. Bishop M. P. Jamison, D.D., of Leigh, Tex. had a stroke of paralysis, which later resulted in his death. Revs J. C. and J. H. Hill were overcome by gas, their deaths threw a gloom over the Conference. It is being whispered through the Church that Rev. Seldon has made good. DISTRICT CONFERENCE S. S. CONVENTION AND W. M. M. S. OF A. M. E. CHURCH TO MEET The District Conference Sunday School Convention and Women's Mite Missionary Convention of the Southern district of the A. M. E. Church will meet at the Second A. M. E. Church on 1736 E. 53rd St. June 26-27-28. Rev J. H. Wilson, the presiding elder of the California Conference, is striving hard to make this greatest meeting of the kind ever held in this section. The pastor, W. M. Tyler, is sanguine that this meeting will be a record breaker. A strong program has been arranged and the interest throughout the three days' session will never lag. Each day will be a big day, but the 3rd day will be the climax of a most interesting session. At 9 o'clock a.m. the patriotic services will be held: this will be a stellar event, taken part in by some of our ablest divines; such as Rev. J. W. Price, who will lead the devotional exercises; "Opportunity and Responsibility After the War" by Rev J. Logan Craw; "The American Idea, the Larger Democracy," by J. F. C. Taylor, will be a rare treat. In the afternoon the Women's Mite Missionary will hold forth and even a greater time is anticipated. Mrs. Lillian J. Craw, Mrs. Emma Guy and Mrs. J. H. Wilson are down for addresses. Close With a Blaze of Glory This day will close in a blaze of glory, the choir of the First A. M. E. What the Churches are Doing ```markdown ``` WESLEY M. E. CHURCH 8th and San Julian Sts. Rev. A. P. Shaw, Pastor The great battle between the Old Timers and New Comers will be fought and won this Sunday at Wesley M. E. Church. Generals J. A. Jackson and O. S. Stout of the Old Timers and New Comers, respectively, have assembled their heavy artillery for the last charge. Indications are that when the friendly battle is over the remaining $1500 to reach the $3000 goal will have been raised and Old Timers and New Comers alike will rejoice over the greater victory. There never was a time in our church's history when there was a greater need of united effort than Sunday. Every member and friend of Wesley is urged even at a personal sacrifice to help win the victory toward which we have been struggling for weeks and months. One thousand dollars is at stake. The opening wedge to the paying off of our debt must be driven to the head in this day's effort. Excuses cannot put us nearer the goal. It is the goal we seek. Let there be no slackers. This is no time nor cause for the faint hearted and those that lack courage. Let us prove our worthiness to follow in the footsteps of God's mighty heroes and heroines of all ages, by rising to the magnitude of our task and by faith in God and in ourselves and win the victory. --- Short sermons morning and evening by the pastor.

The Holy Ghost was present when our pastor, Rev. J. D. Gordon, preached two exceptionally strong sermons. Dr. Gordon's discourse was full of good things for all of those who heard him. A good audience was present at each service, five persons joined the church during the day. Next Sunday, June 2, 1918, at the morning service covenant meeting will be in progress and at the evening service, Rev. E. H. Davis, formerly Pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist church will occupy the pulpit. All members and friends cordially welcome to be present. THE PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST Corner 18th and Palma Sts. Rev. N. P. Greggs, D.D., Pastor The large congregation that assembled at Peoples Independent Church on last Sunday morning was greatly edited by a plain practical sermon delivered by Pastor Greges on the subject, "Gift or Tongues" with logical arguments and Biblical facts he explained most clearly the meaning and purpose of the gift of tongues. In the afternoon a magnificent audience taxed the capacity of the spacious auditorium in celebration of the anniversary of the U. B. F. and S. M. T. lodges. The ceremonies were indeed very inspiring and impressive and Pastor Greges delivered a wonderful sermon that was filled with practical and helpful suggestions. In the evening the sermon was preached in songs. The Gospel song service, led by the choir, proved to be wonderfully uplifting to the soul and was thoroughly enjoyed by every one present. Keep the spiritual fire burning, attend the mid-week prayer and praise service every Thursday evening at 8 clock LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGRE GATIONAL CHURCH "Put on the whole armour of God" (Eph 6:11), was the text used by the pastor at the morning service on last Sunday.

Warner, a returned missionary from Liberia, gave a very interesting and helpful talk on her work there, to the delight of all present. The various clubs of the church are busily engaged in working in the interest of the special effort which comes on the 5th Sunday in June. This Sunday, being the first of the month, there will be the regular Communion services, morning and evening.

Cothran, Minister Full of the Holy Spirit the pastor brought to us a burning message at 11 a.m. The Heavenly Vision Man is not fully qualified for service unless he has had a vision. Paul the great, persecutor of the church, had a vision and he was not dosobedient. When we have visions we should obey them. People without a vision perish, they are not active church members. The difference between a vision and a dream are, one is real and the other is unreal. When Paul got up the Heavenly vision is all he could see, so it is with us, true conviction never leaves us. We see nothing but that vision. At 8 p.m. the pastor's reasoning on the things concerning the Kingdom of God, made our hearth glad. One dear sister came forward and took membership. Mrs. Harris of Monrovia was up; we hope she will come often. Lord's Day services, June 2nd. Preaching, 11 a.m., "God's Attitude Towards Sin," 8 p.m., "Way Which Seemeth Right."

Through all of the services Sunday, Prof. Bynum will present an elaborate program of high grade music in which the public will have opportunity to hear for the first time, perhaps, a group of young singers of talent and training. The choir space of the church has just been enlarged and rearranged adequately to accommodate the great choir now being developed by Prof. Bynum. Three services will be held—the regular 11 o'clock service, afternoon service at 3 o'clock, and again in the evening at 8 o'clock. At the morning service the Rev. II.

The programs rendered at the evening sessions were splendid and Rev. J. E. Fletcher is very pleased over effort. The Colored Red Cross had charge of the last evening session. They raised quite a large sum of money for their part in the wide world's Red Cross Campaign which is now going on. We succeeded in this conference in raising over our dollar money fund for the Annual Conference already and more is coming in. There were splendid reports read and this endeavor proved to be highly educational. Rev J. H. Wilson acted on the opening night as the presiding bishop and because of some important business elsewhere he had to leave the Rev. A. C. Yearwood of the Zion A. M.

Astor Bradley's biblical and immortal oratorio J. Joseph. No screech opera here, there has rivaled this particular production of very well trained voices under the capable tutelage of Mime-Little Man Jester Brands. The scores here are gorgeous and the settings have been embellished with intricate and imaginative music, amazing lighting and beautiful music. The nature play a study. The titular role was sung by the K. Tailor M. Davis a tenor of rare The leading feminine role, the Princess, was sung with explicit interpretation by our lyric soprano, Mrs Eugene J. Morris, whose trilling and warbling was at all times a very noticeable feature. Her clear soprano was in excellent flexibility, and she interpreted her role with full value of emotional stress. Mrs Morris costume was graceful, and with it she were a provision of oriental jewels and diamonds. "The Sign of Jewelry Harke Ceased" and "The Lord Jebahah" were given with marvelous ability. Others in the personale of the cast included Mrs Henry Sims soprano; Mrs Ed Jones soprano; Miss Amy Harris contrata; Mr C C Browman bass; cantate; Mr James Smith tenor; Mr Jack Trentt, baritone, and Mr Joe Morgan, bass. The cantata was a trumpphant success, and never have the scenes been trivial in oriental splendor and grandeur. Madame Davis recognized by the masses of musical genius as a master mind for any colossal and spectacular production deserves great praise for her excellent cutletage of philharmonic which greatly distinguished her ability as a directress of dramatic opera.

PEACE! PROSPERITY! UNION! The Huns in Georgia and Louisiana were in action the past week. They are no doubt massing their forces and bringing up their heavy artillery for a super drive in the near future. The movement to become real producers is making a commendable progress and when the people really get this idea to promote they will find themselves on the right track. We are now proceeding to wind up our roll call on all our classes as to their support or rural enterprises and we promise that when the result is made known, many of our current citizens will sit up and take notice. WILLIAM EDGAR EASTON Who has been appointed by the War Department as one of the speakers who will have as their duty the task of enlightening New York public opinion as to the war aims of the government, who shall, as opportunity offers, seek to create and motivate public opinion which shall back up the government in the presentation of the war. Mr. Easton will worthily represent the cause of the government for the reason that he is eminently qualified with a rich and varied experience in public life, a thorough patriot and a forceful and eloquent speaker. He will make good to the utmost. ALL SHARE IN GLORY OF THE RED CROSS The mighty drive for the Red Cross was 1 glorious success and in gaining the same we are proud of the part the Colored citizens played. They worked like Trojans and can well rejoice our share in the glory of having given real service to our country. The editor of the Eagle served as captain of the 75th Precinct and can testify as to the spirit of the public thereof. They all gave something; the workers sacrificed their time without complaint. Great credit is due Mrs. Charlotte Brickhouse, Mrs. E. L. Smith and V. M. Cole, our aids in the work in this precinct. In the adjoining precinct W. H. Sanders rendered yeoman service, also Mrs. M. Spivey, Mrs. Southard, Mrs. D. Allen, Mrs. Pearl Hall and others. THE APPOINTMENT OF DR. GEORGE E. HAYNES OF FISK UNIVERSITY, NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE to the position of head of the Department of Negro Economies, under the Secretary of Labor, Washington, D. C. does without doubt the most important appointment or act of the present national administration with reference to the Negro. Dr. Haynes has for a number of years been the prime mover in the development of the great urban movement in our Northern States which finally resulted in the great exodus of Negroes from the South to the North industrial centers. That this movement has been attended with as little friction in our Northern industrial centers as it has been due in no small measure to the tact and far-sightedness and native diplomacy of Dr. Haynes. In his new position as head of the Department of Negro Economies, Dr Haynes' influence will affect the life of nearly every Negro family in the United States. More than that his influence will have much to do with shaping the future of Negro labor and Negro economic achievement not only in the United States itself, but in all of the nations with which our great country maintains friendly and commercial relations. MOVING DAY We have often spoken of moving day, but now it comes home to us, as this is the last issue which will go forth from our present home, 814 Central Ave. Our next issue will come from 822 Central Ave. just three doors south of our present location, where we have leased the entire building. We have outtrown our present quarters in our new home. The business offices will be up stairs at 822! Central Ave., while the lower floor will house our work shop exclusively. We are installing our new Mergenthaler No. 5 Linotype Machine, and ninth will be in a position to do our own linotyping and as a consequence will be enabled to issue a bigger and better journal than ever before. We are installing a new job printing press and other machinery and will, when we have finished moving, present to Los Angeles the most complete newspaper and printing establishment conducted by Colored people in the entire western country. In our next issue we will announce time of our grand opening, which we want to make a notable event for this city. We feel thatjoin our effort to improve we shall have the continued support in the future as in the past, and that all will join with us as we celebrate the installation of our new home. Watch for the time and the date. THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK Of course along political lines the contest for the nomination for governor will overshadow to a marked degree all other contests, and the candidates for other state offices will truly have to tread in a measure, the wine press alone. With a trip over the state at all places we found our people in a receptive mood of mind, and waiting patiently for the Eagle to come forth with the claims of the various candidates for public office. They realize that the political recognition which they have received in the past has been of a measure so small that a microscopic view is necessary to discern it, and they therefore have only the hopes of tomorrow along this line to contemplate and analyze. Passing on from political recognition at the fire counter, the next proposition is the question how they can best serve their country, state and community in giving their support to the various candidates whom they might elect to support, and to that they need enlightenment and plenty of it. Now the California Eagle is not a political sheet by any means, we do not for one moment depend on political campaigns to conduct this paper, we derive our support and sustenance from the plain, common, every-day people, and therefore we are in a position to speak right out in church and tell the people the real dope from any angle it might come, and in this campaign we are going to talk right out and keep the people informed both as to men and issues, to the end that they may be enlightened fully on the political situation as it confronts them. This will make mighty interesting reading, so by all means from now on do not miss a single copy of the Soaring Eagle. Take for instance the gubernatorial contest. This, contrary to any dope which may be floating around, will be a hair raising contest and whoever wins out both in the primaries and in the general election will know that they have been in a sure honest to goodness contest. For lieutenant governor, according to the line-up the Colored vote will easily be the deciding factor so close does that race appear at this time, then all along down the line a like condition exists wherever there is any contest at all, and in the contests in the various counties, watch the Eagle. She will soar high above the ground, get the lay of the land and give it to the people that they might govern themselves accordingly. THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Glorious Old Time Revival THE MASTER We had splendid services at this church on the past Lord's Day; and all who came were blessed.

THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE SAN DIEGO MRS. C. E. NORWOOD, Mgr. (Delayed from last week.) Under the auspices of the Negro Women's Council, Prof. Chas Alexander talked to an appreciative audience on last Sunday afternoon about "Free Land and Single Tax." The people of San Diego could not see into the Single Tax proposition, just as Prof. Alexander viewed it, so could not come to any definite conclusion. Mrs. Chas Dodge of Ocean Beach had a special invitation to come out and talk on "Patriotism." She said that the colored people of San Diego were indeed asleep, and it was high time that they were waking up to their sense of duty. That the colored people say that they are patriotic, doing patriotic work, but when it comes to showing our colors, it is a noted fact that we are all asleep, lack the real-patriotism that we should have, and what a shame it was that out of all the colored people of San Diego that are doing Red Cross work, and those that have relatives in this great world war, not to have a representative, not one in the great patriotic Red Cross parade on last Saturday afternoon, and that too, after having a cordial invitation to attend. Asleep we are. So wake up, colored people, and see what the people of the world are doing. Mrs. L. A. Jones composed and read the following poem. Our Boys in France Again they are called to the color. To fight a ruthless foe. For they're true as red, white and blue, It's the treatment they have had. Yet they've been called to the colors And if you'll give them a chance They will show their strength and valor. Our noble boys in France They have always taught as heroes And always won with tattoe Where ever they be, on land or sea. Not ever received the name. But we will still pray God bless them. That you will give them a chance. We feel they're coming to their own Our noble boys in France They're coming, yet they're coming. Unlike poor Joe or old. They're coming, yes they're coming. Lik, lambs into the fold. They will rally around the flag. All they want is a chance. To show they're true to U. S. A. Our noble boys in France. We sing "The Star Spangled Banner" "My Country, 'Tis of Thee." We sing about "America." The home of the brave and the free And when the war clouds roll away. If you've given them a chance. We'll then be proudly waiting. For our faithful boys from France. The colored women of San Diego met last Friday night and organized a Civic Center League. Officers were elected as follows. President, Mrs. McDonald. vice president, Mrs. A. Lewis; recording secretary, Mrs. Agnes A. Knight; corresponding secretary, Mrs. Rosa Dedrick. Mrs. M. A. Hayden; superintendent of the Mt. Zion Sunday school, has appointed her committee to train the children for Children's Day exercises. Rev R D Arlue and Brother Gains of Pasadena were visitors at Mt. Zion Sunday morning. The U. B F. and S. M. T.'s will have their annual sermon preached at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church Sunday afternoon, May 26, at 2 o'clock. Mrs. Lee Brown's baby is on the sick list this week. Mr. Joe Stansel is spending his leisure moments in knitting himself a sweater. The Willing Workers' Club, of which Mrs. G. W. Woodyd is president, held their weekly meeting last Tuesday evening, and decided to do whatsoever their hands find to do towards the improvements made in the Mt. Zion Baptist Church. Their special work is to have the windows repaired, and this they expect to do in M. style. The Carnation Club postponed their meeting this week on account of the Union revival, which is being conducted at Liberty Hall, by Dr. K. D. Airline of Los Angeles, the tsate evangelist. Mrs. E. L. Parker and Mrs. Samuel and a party of ladies motored to Camp Kearney last Sunday. Mrs. Samuel is delighted with the orange groves in San Diego. Mrs. Donohue's little baby is very sick. Mr. Thomas Jackson is also reported very sick. Mrs. L. A. Jones' son and wife and little, grandson, Harold, motored from Santa Ana Saturday night and while here they took Mrs. Hutson, president of the Negro Women's Council, and her mother, Mrs. Ross, out sight seeing in the back country. They returned home Monday evening. Mrs. Lawson and her granddaughter, Miss Geneva Gross, has moved back to San Diego again. The Missionary Society of the Mt Zion Church is taking on new life on last Thursday afternoon the ladies met at Sister V. S.-Belt's, 719 South Thirtieth street, to sew: Mrs V. L. Goodwin is chairman of the sewing committee. After passing the afternoon pleasantly sewing on aprons and little dresses, which were already ordered to be made, the ladies were all asked to the dining room by the hostess, and around the table, laden down with dainty strawberry whip and cake galore, all repeated biblical verses; and while eating their repast, the important topics of the day were discussed and talked upon. Rev. C. Williams left Wednesday night for Pasadena to attend the executive board. The revival meeting conducted at Liberty Hall is still progressing under the services of Rev R. D. Arline. The Texas Club met on Monday night at the home of Mrs. Rosa Diedrick, in East San Diego. The meeting was one that everyone present enjoyed immensely. There were twenty-seven members present and the club is collecting its membership to double before the 19th of June, when the grand piemie comes off. The following program was very intelligently rendered: Paper by Mrs. R Williams, entitled "A Prayer for Peace," a reading by Mrs. Keeene, "How Can We Train Our Judgment?" A recitation was then rendered by Mrs. Josephine Williams, the president of the Texas Club. Mr. M. T. Lewis motored out to East San Diego to the home of Mrs. L. V. Jones and carried with him Mrs. M. A. Hayden, Mrs. C. E. Norwood, Mrs. V. L.
