ESTABLISHED 1879 LEADING RACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE PICO 328 VOLUME 31 SOCIETY OVERHAULED. A careful review of social conditions among our people here in Los Angeles, with emphasis on the "here," covering a period of about four weeks, brings about many important questions bearing very strongly upon the growing tendency of our advance in some lines and the definite retrogression in other lines. The questions before us are open, and each day becomes not only parlor and dining room gossip, but is becoming street corner and ice cream parlor gossip also. Other people (some of them), look back with delight upon the days of their youth, when it was their pride and joy to get ready to meet society. Mothers of yesterday regarded discipline and aristocracy as exemplary traits today, mothers consider society only as an emergency to be made effective when some stranger from a different section of the country comes to town, by an elaborately set dinner, duly flavored with a little gossip of historic family references. To serve such deceit upon the visitor is not only wrong, but dirty, and we want it clearly understood that the observer will spare no pains to point out publicly such selfish actions of cheap notoriety and social camouflage. To illustrate some of ten questions arising from our view, let us start with congratulating our younger girls and matrons (especially those whose husbands and sweethearts have been called to the colors), for their splendid efforts in assisting the various government auxiliaries in their recent drives to procure funds, together with an added growing tribute to our "mothers and fathers" of the Army constituents, who have not only sacrificed children and dependents, but also gave of their time and allowance, to keep the boys comfortable while "over there." Such acts of generosity and wholeheartedness call for the deepest appreciation of the Nation, and are, indeed, warmly indicative of the real spirit backing our people in the world's war. But congratulations are not all that we are to talk about. The boys "over there" only form a part of the make-up of a people. Freely have they gone straight to an improvised "hell" for our future safety and protection, as the kind warefare of today is nothing short of a compounded mass of science, barbarity and hellfire, as is told by those who have been through it; the greatest consolation of trench life is home-folk, a letter from home, a cigarette from home, anything from home. For a moment, imagine yourself in the trench, or in camp, heartfreighted with love for family, friends and sweetheart, and word reaches you that your sister, niece, sweetheart, or wife, whoever it may be, brought up with guarded circumspection, with all the comforts of home life and an aristocratic surrounding, given all possible opportunity of education and self-advancement, either because of influence, lonesomeness, social legislation or parental fear, no matter the cause, instead of going to Church on Sundays, "dolled up" to go to the Cabaret; in place of meeting and chatting with friends at the drug store, as usual, meets some self-styled gentleman of the Fourth and Central Avenue type. (I mean a type who is singularized by a peculiar fitting coat, hanging in the "box-back" fashion and touching his anatomy in three spots only), or meets some audacious "car driver" who uses his employer's machine to keep himself popular with "society." (By the way, let us pause for a minute and distinguish between a chauffeur and a "car driver). A chauffeur is one engaged in an honest pursuit, and uses chauffeurism only for earning an honest livelihood)—such a man, indeed, is to be respected and advocated; but the employee who, as soon as he takes his boss to the show or elsewhere, hurries over to take his girl, or mother and daughter, or some other man's wife, as is too often the case, for an erstwhile drive, so as to keep in with "society," or maintain his standing, is positively beneath the chauffeur's class, and is termed the "car driver." There is a special title attached to the class of "moochers" who encourage "car drivers." The same title was given to the slaves in the days of yore, who dressed-up in their "wha folkes" clothes to go to parties when "wha folkes" went hunting. It is still passing to lockdown, how Saver, will lecture at the First A. M. E. Church, 8th and Towne Avenue Tuesday evening, July 2, 1918, at 8 o'clock. Everybody welcome. Subject, "A Trip to the Holy Land." Miss Evans has traveled in Europe, Asia, Africa, France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, Turkey, the Holy Land and Egypt. An intellectual treat is promised everyone who attends. Admission 25 Cents. Angleson Women's Mike Minnowsy Society. Rev. J. Logan Crum, Fannie The anyone with a sane degree of respectability can practice riding around in a millionaire's car, without fear of meeting the owner or some relation of the owner, in either case jeopardizing the job of the "car driver." Yes. I repeat, imagine yourself in a trench or camp; how would. you feel to hear these truths; you would think. Can it be possible for a well-thinking girl, just bidding farewell to her teens, boasting of an aristocratic lineage, to content her self to be a public subject because of influence? You will imagine how, in the long run, can a daughter respect a mother who takes her from a comfortable home where all-day contact is good and surroundings ideal, to a cabaret at night, where there is opportunity for seeing and hearing everything—where, at one table sit the denizens of the alleys and penitentiary, and at the other table the pure sweet idol of the parlor, ignorantly smiling at everything that transpires, inhaling the smoke of cheap cigars, at the same time unknowingly digging a pit into which she will fall sooner or later. A few may think that it is o. k., but the majority will agree that it is wrong. Society, if correctly interpreted, is against it, and even the cabaret goers look with pity and compassion upon the innocent idol who thinks that because mother, who has already lived her life and wants to live it again with daughter, says, "Go, it is alright to go." Yes, you certainly wouldn't feel that you are covering yourself with any glory, to stay in the trench or camp to protect such people. Social aristocracy has suffered enough intolerance in this matter, and much as it is impossible to fit a round block in a square hole, so it is impossible to make a "car driver," a "hop-head," or a "gentleman of leisure," fit into any recognized worthwhile society without either a strain of some kind on the one or the other. The observer is not advocating any fixed laws of class legislation, but is advocating propriety and common decency among our people who ought to be exampled leaders. The same feeling of regret and remorse which would permeate the being of men of high racial and National standing, walking into cabarets and cafes night after night, almost, and seeing their best young women seated at beer tables in company with "car drivers." I. W. W's., self-styled social dramatic stars, but publicly considered "job dogers," and that type (I mean people of standing like Kelly Miller, Ed Wright, Dr. DuBois, Judge Terrell, Mrs. Booker Washington, or Mrs. Terrell, and others), is the same indescribable feeling which has permeated the observer during the past month. Cabaret once in a while is o. k., and indeed refreshing. In closing this installment, the observer asks for opinions by mail addressed to the Observer's Department of the California Eagle, not later than Wednesday morning. Worthwhile communications will be publicly acknowledged. No unsigned communications will be considered. The question is: "Can a young woman, married or unmarried, be a 'parlor angel' in the day, and a cabaret idol at night, and be rated as socially excellent?" OBSERVER Mr. W. F. Foster, recruiting agent for the United States Navy, with his wife, motored up to Bakersfield last Sunday to address a meeting of men that are in the selective draft, the purpose being to induce them to join the Navy and as to their trades and qualifications. The trip was fruitful, as four men have enlisted and gone already; bringing the total for his office to 66 since the 24th of May. Only five have been rejected; 51 passed and 10 waiting. Not so bad for the initial colored Recruiting Station of the U. S. Navy. Mr. Foster will make week-end trips to Ana- California Eagle San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, JUNE 22. 1918 heim, Fullerton, San Bernardino, Pomona, Ontario, Santa Barbara, Oxnard, Ventura, and all neighboring cities and towns until the Navy is supplied. Colored Recruiting Stations will be established through all Naval Districts, and we hope the results will be as successful as the one just established for the race at 1123 Central Avenue, for the 12th Naval District. Mr. Foster was formerly on the cruisers Raleigh and Monitor, and was discharged at New London, Conn., in June, 1894. METHODISTS WILL HAVE BIG WEEK.

Art Club, will be entertained at the home of Mrs. G. V. Surrey, 1506 W. 36th Street Friday afternoon, June 28. All members are urged to be present, as the election of officers will take place. Mrs. G. V. Surrey, Pres.; Mrs. H. Hurd, Secy. F. W. H. The preesent very efficient Sheriff of San Diego County has made such an enviable record in that position that it is the general consensus of opinion that he will be elected at the coming primaries. He served as Undersheriff until the death of the late Sheriff Conkling, when on April 8th he was elected by the Board of Supervisors to fill out the unexpired term. It would be hard to find a more genial and courteous official One of the finest men we have ever met is the genial deputy sheriff of San Diego, Harry E. Webber. He has been a resident of this city for the past 26 years; and was appointed to his present position by the late Sheriff Ralph Conkling. He now aspires to the position of Constable and is asking the support of the people for that position. The Eagle has no hesitancy in recommending Mr. Webber as worthy of your support to the utmost. We find such men as Webber, few and far between. When you have a chance, do your best for them, as they not only appreciate your assistance but deserve it; therefore, don't forget Harry E. Webber, for Constable at Primaries Ang. 27. CLAUDE L. CHAMBERS For Police Judge at the coming primaries and election, the well-known and popular attorney, Claudie L. Chambers, is the leading candidate and is receiving at the hands of all classes of our citizenship a strong support to this position. Mr. Chambers, aside from ranking as the highest type of American citizenship, also has a strong personality, and than James C. Byers, and a host of friends and acquaintances will use their best efforts to put him over the top at the August primaries. Sheriff Byers was born in Iowa, and ever since his advent into California has resided in San Diego, and has been a part and parcel of its progress. Large of heart, he is truly the friend of all of the people, and under his administration all will receive a square deal. His motto will ever be a faithful service and a square deal to all. On this showing and assurance, all classes are giving to Sheri: Byers their hearty support. once meeting him, you will always be his friend. During his career as M. B. a citizen in San Diego the people have come to know Mr. Chambers, and will give to him a royal support. All the leading clubs, committees, etc. have gone on record in his behalf; therefore it is conceded that in Mr. Chambers' election will mean much to the plain, common, every-day people. They appreciate the chance to place a man of his calibre in this office, and to a man they are all rallying for Judge Chambers. CHAUNCEY R. HAMMOND FOR COUNTY AUDITOR The present very efficient County Auditor, Chauncey R. Hammond, will stand for re-election. Thus far there is no one who has announced themselves in opposition, but be that as if may, Mr. Hamomnd is a gentleman who has proved his worth and has with signal ability kept this office up to the highest possible standard of efficiency. He has at all times been THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 19 the servant of all the people and used his best endeavor to serve them. As a result, he will have a united support for re-election. The colored citizens of San Diego are his strong boosters, and this year will support him to the man. The following is a clipping from the "Black Dispatch," a highly creditable journal of Oklahoma City, and aside from publishing the appended letter, they made caustic editorial comment: NIGGERS? Club Lady Enraged at McAdam. Oklahoma City, Okla.; June 12, 1918. To the Editor of the Black Dispatch. Dear Editor: I wish space in your paper that I might express my thoughts about a recent public meeting. I am indeed glad to know that our race has a man who, in the person of Mr. Wm. Harrison, who is able to say so many eloquent things about this race of ours. In his address at the Auditorium he carried us through every war of the world and proved that we had shouldered the burdens of all of the Nations who have sorrowed, and as he told of how our boys fought bravely today with forgiving hearts. I wondered would there be a change of conditions in the future that would benefit the many or a few, and as I sat there thinking of how we ought to draw near to our white brother, up rose the next speaker in the person of Mr. E. G. McAdams (white), and he said that Harrison was the only "Nigger in the Government Service." He said that the reason he had Harrison appointed was because his sister had written him that the "Niggers" had made so much money down in South Carolina that they had gone crazy, he said: "We Southern ducks know you niggers; we know you niggers will do just what you are told to do, and so I had Harrison appointed so he could go down in the South and get this money away from them for the Government. He said that we white folks believe anything that Mr. Harrison says, and you must believe what he says. After the war he will be your leader. He said that Harrison was a nigger and knew that he was a nigger. Mr. McAdams made me feel as though he felt that we as a race could not think for ourselves and that his only idea in sending Mr. Harrison out was to get our money. I was reminded very much of the time when the children of Israel labored for God while the Egyptians enslaved them for the silver and gold that they might gather from them. My feelings were very much hurt, and I can see it in, no other light. MRS. C. E. HALL, 304 N. Hudson. REV. L. H. WASHINGTON, Pastor of the Shiloh Baptist Church, who is now in Chicago, Ill., sends greetings to members and friends. Rev.Washington was one of the abest young ministers in this city, and has been very busy since he has been in the East. He is now engaged in a great meeting under a large tent that will seat more than two thousand people. Rev.Washington is making good in Chicago, and if it is God's will he will return to Los Angeles some time in the spring to complete his plans for a new office in this city. ```markdown ``` What the Churches are Doing SAQI TWU SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH Maple Avenue The Sunday School was very largely attended last Sunday, and the lesson was entered into eagerly by all. The subject, "The Uplifted Cross," drew all that was best from each teacher. Sister Gather of Woodland, Cal., being present, was called upon for remarks. She drove home the lesson, and left a sweet influence with all who heard her. At 11 o'clock the Chuch was filled with a very earnest congregation; nor was it in vain that the people came together, for the pastor gave an instructive sermon on the text, Matt. xiii:30., "Let both grow together until the Harvest." The Divine ownership of the Church, Divinely employed ministry, the indistinctible word of God, danger of unfaithful stewardship, God's attribute of patience, and the final triumph of the Christian religion, were points that were brought convincingly to the attention of the audience, and it was evident some good was done. The young people had their annual meeting and elected delegates to the coming Convention with the Macedonia Baptist Church at Watts. In the evening the pastor gave way to the Sunday School for the exercises of Children's Day. Superintendent S. P. Johnson and his corps of teachers, with the little ones, did splendidly on the occasion. This Sunday a very distinguished minister and friend of the former and present incumbent, will preach. We invite the public to come and hear him. Dr. Prowd is about making arrangements for the coming of the greatest Negro Evangelist known in this country. The meetings will be held in the Second Baptist Church in the beginning, and as the crowds increase it might be found advisable to go elsewhere, to larger quarters. The earnest prayers of all God's people are requested for the coming revival meetings. Members and other Christians desiring to hold cottage meetings will please notify Dr. Prowd on Sunday. The noted preacher who comes to us has been appearing before the white people of the South for the past four years, and his reputation as a soul winner is unquestionable. In a week or so his name will appear in the papers, also his picture. A great pamphlet written by a pronounced scholar of the white race. "On the future of the Negro," will be in Dr. Prowd's hands in a few weeks. This pamphlet is replete with utterances in favor of the black man, and is now being largely distributed among the white Churches North and South. Truly, our God is marching on Come out early to Church so you may return early. THE PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST Corner 18th and Paloma Sts. Rev. N. P. Greggs, D.D., Pastor Two appreciative audiences gathered to partake of the usual gospel feast at People's Independent Church on last Sunday. Pastor Greggs preached two eloquent and inspiring sermons from the text. Rev. 2:17. "To Him That Overcometh Will I Give to Lat of the Hidden Manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it." In the afternoon the trip through the Holy Land was concluded, and those who missed this grand entertainment missed a very rare treat. The usual services next Sunday. Sunday School at 8:30 a.m. Preaching at 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. Christian Endeavor at 6:30 p.m. Midweek praise service every Thursday evening at 8 o'clock. A real welcome is always assured you at this Church. TRINITY BAPTIST Sunday was a banner day at Trinity. The pastor preached a sermon to the young men and women from the subject, "The Price You Pay for a Good Time." This sermon was followed by an address by Mrs. L. L. Moore, president of the women's department of the Western Baptist Association. At 3 o'clock the B. Y. P. U. Federation of Los Angeles County met with us. Many young people of various Churches met with the young people at Trinity. Rev. W. H. Rozier, president of the Western Baptist Association, preached a strong sermon to the young people. A solo was sung by Mrs.' A. Lewis and one by Mrs. V. Hubert, both of Tabernacle Baptist Church. Many of the prominent members of the Baptist family of California were present, Rev. Huchinson, pastor, Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Los Angeles; Rev. Cooper, San Bernardino; Mr. J. Allen Reese, president of the Cal. State S. S. Convention; Mr. S. P. Johnson, president of the B. Y. P. U. District and State Convention; Prof. C. A. Biggers, president Biggers Business College, and many others. At the evening service, Mrs. Weber, president of the women's department. ment of the State Convention, and Mrs. A. B. Freeman of Stockton, superintendent of the children's bands of the State Convention, were with us. Mrs. Weber spoke to the children. Mrs. Freeman organized the Trinity's Sunshine Band, with 27 members. Next Sunday Rev. Williams will speak at both services. Morning, "A Divine Savior." Evening, "Race Slackers." WESLEY M. E. CHURCH 8th and San Julian Sts. Rev. A. P. Shaw, Pastor Sunday was an excellent day at Wesley. At 11 a.m. the pastor baptized the infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. S. Holden. This was followed by an inspiring address on "Home Misisons," by Mrs. Miller, National Secy. of the Woman's Home Misonary Society. The evening service consisted of a sermon by the pastor, and an address by Mrs. A. C. Richardson on the "Bundy Case." A collection of $8 was taken for this cause. Four persons united with the Church during the day. Our great rally has reached the $2700 mark. This Sunday promises to put us "over the top." Mr. Dewey, a white friend interested in the effort, will be present this Sunday morning and assist us in raising the balance. Every captain and member is urged to come prepared to make a good showing in cash or subscription that will cover the balance. 11 a. m., requested sermon, "How to Win the War," by the pastor. Solo by Madame Tyler of Chicago; 3 p. m., annual St. Johnn Day sermon to the Masons by the Rev. J. W. price; 8 p. m., sermon to the Court of Calanthe by the pastor. Everybody welcome. Good Singing by the choir. Sermons that are inspiring and helpful. Come on time at all services. PHILLIPS CHAPEL C. M. E. CHURCH 1406 Newton St. Rev. J. C. Anderson, Pastor Two Splendid services were enjoyed at this Church on Sunday. The pastor preached at both services to very appreciative congregations. The congregation at the morning service gave a very splendid response to an appeal for funds to aid in the defense of Dr. Bundy of East St. Lohis. The pastor will preach at both morning and evening services. In the afternoon at 3 o'clock the ladies of the Missionary Society will render a program assisted by some of the best local talent in the city, and conduct a missionary rally. The public is invited to all the services of this Church. BIRCH ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH F. C. Cothran, Minister The pasor spoke on the subject, "What is your pursuasion?" Paul was pursuaded to tell this heathen king of the glory of God; and what did he tell him? He told him of the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Now listen. King Agrippa said, "Almost Thou pursuasion me to be a Christian." This heathen king understood and knew the new name that God's pe ople were, to wear. The greatest detriment to our Lord's cause is division. It is not the will of God that it should be, for our admonition is "let there be no division among us," but there are thousands whose pursuasion is to wear human names instead of the Divine name. A man that was named by the mouth of the Lord. We are married to Christ. Does He not want us to wear His name? When a woman marries a man she is pleased to wear his name. We must pursuade others with pure Christian lives. This is the thing that counts. It is not possible to live this life and not pursuade some one for good. So let us use our pursuasion for good at at all times. Next Lord's Day at 11 a. m., subject, "The Folly of Excuses." 8. p. m., "The Sin of Supernatural Greed." All welcome. BETHEL CHURCH OF CHRIST 1548 Palomares Ave. Rev. Wm. A. Washington, Pastor The union revival being conducted by the Holiness Churches at Adams and Hooper Avenue, is proving quite a success. Rev. C. P. Jones and Rev. Wm. A. Washington are preaching nightly. These ministers are true messengers of the King and everyone should hear them. Believers, come and be benefited. We are asking for the unsaved. Come Christians and bring an unsaved person with you. There will be preaching three times Sunday; 11 a. m. and 3 p. m., and at 8 p. m. Bible Class each afternoon.

Gordon, Pastor In spite of the warm weather, the services at the Tabernacle Baptist Church were largely attended at the morning service. Rev. F. W. Cooper of Riverside occupied the pulpit and preached a masterly sermon. The Sunday School, under the able leadership of Bro. Laster, is being strongly built up each Lord's Day. The B. Y. P. U., under the leadership of Sister Annie Lewis is, wide awake. The sunrise prayer meeting is progressing nicely under Bro. Johnson.

CHURCH NOTES Corner 8th and Towne Ave. Rev. J. Logan Craw, Pastor Children's Day services last Sunday were thoroughly observed by two magnificent congregations. The pastor preached at the morning service, while our field choir rendered excellent singing. There were three accessions to the membership, and including the mid-week joined, the membership roll went up isx notches higher. Mrs. Margaret Gilland, M.D., of the American Women's Hospital, and Gumayae, De Lowe, native Hindu of Bombay, India, were distinguished visitors and speakers. Four ladies were christened. At the evening service, the Sunday School held forth in the rendition of two beautiful cantatas, which elicited unanimous praise from the large host assembled. It was truly a successful Children's Day service at First Church Sunday, with flattering results in every manner. Hear Miss Mary G. Evans Tuesday night, July 2. "A Trip to the Holy Land."

And way back under the cover, after all it is not Mr. McAdoo at all; they want Woodrow. The Methodists hosts of Southern California will be with us this week, and it behooves all to give to them a right royal time. We are glad to note the fact that the people are thinking more seriously than ever on the proposition of producing something, and that somewhere and somehow they are seeking to become real producers. The meeting at the Forum on last Sunday was a pretty fair barometer as to the state of mind of the people, and demonstrates the fact that they are ready and willing to assume the highest rank of real citizenship by becoming real producers if only given the opportunity. Just as we thought, here comes the propaganda advocating a third term for Mr. Wilson, and supposing he enters the race with the Espionage act as it is, it would be decidedly unhealthy to criticise him. No, we have as yet produced no anarchists, I. W. W., and a mighty few who hackle over the doctrines of Socialism and Single Tax. In fact, the Negro race is the highest unit in real patriotism in the country today. The concert given by the S. Coeridge Taylor Music Study Club last Sunday evening at the People's Auditorium was a musical treat: OTHER OFFICERS. The presidency overshadows all the rest. Jarrett for Secretary, is not worried. He has made good to such a degree that no other candidate will be mentioned. For Vice-Treasurer and other officers, no contest is in sight. Waller can be Treasurer for life. DARK HORSES. Theer is some talk of a dark horse. Just who it is the Eagle man is not wised up to. M. G. Stokes looks wise, also Hugh Gordon, as well as W. L. Gordon, but by the 30th all of the respective candidates will in all probability be smoked out. IT DOES THINGS. The recent successful graduation of a lady physician fathered by this organization demonstrates its worth. Hot air could not pay $1,000 for a scholarship at Loma Linda. And other things which it has with equal success experienced, makes this body indeed a power for good in the community; therefore any man who is elected must be a big man to measure up to the big work which the Forum does. CANDIDATES MENTIONED. For President of the Forum, J. W. Coleman, the Employment King, is an avowed candidate. Coleman would really appreciate the honor, has sought it from time memorial, and is content to wrestle until the breaking of day. Coleman is game to the core and a staunch race man. Capt. Crumley, who served for so many years in times gone by, may try the "come back;" if he does, no doubt it will be a battle royal with whomever his adversary might be. Crumley is a live wire, aggressive and strong for race advancement. W. C. MUSHET FOR CONGRESS It would really be hard to find a better, a more concienious man for Congress than the Hon. W. C. Mushet, who will imake the race in the 9th Congressional District to succeed Congressman H. C. Randall. Mushet has demonstrated in many ways the fact that he stands really and truly for the people. And with him as an advocate, the plain, common every-day people will always be heard. He is a standard Republican, a Lincoln and Grant sort of Republican and makes no bones of heralding this fact to all. We predict for him a hearty support from all classes, and particularly from the colored people. TOO MUCH TALK. Edward Cook, who lives on the East Side, is in durance vile on a charge of violating the Espionage law. It is alleged that he spoke disparagily of the Liberty Bonds, in words it is alleged he said. "To hell with the Liberty Bonds." His case will be called Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock in Judge Frederickson's court. He will be defended by Attorney Hugh E. Macbeth. This is the first case of the kind in which a colored citizen is charged in violating the law. Every white citizen who has been charged in violating this law and every white citizen who has charged with this crime, has been given a jail sentence of at least 90 days. Cook was reported by two fellow members of the race by name of Miller and Johnson. INTEREST MANIFEST AS TO THE ELECTION OF OFFICERS OF THE FORUM FOR THE ENSUING YEAR. As the time approaches for the election of officers at the Forum for the ensuing year, which will take place on the 30th inst., there are many conjectures as on whom the mantel will fall. That this office is no empty honor goes without saying. Any man who is elected can well say that he has been highly honored. There are those who have minimized the efforts of this organization, but in doing so they only show how small they are themselves, tor the Forum stands out in bold relief as one of the greatest bodies of its kind extant. LECTURE DEC. 20. Rev. J. W. Wilson and congregation of St. Andrews Church, 7th St. Sacramento, wishes to thank Prof. Gumayee DeLowe, a traveling, self-supporting missionary and educator from India, upon iats Sabbath evening for a very interesting and instructive lecture on the customs of India, and its relationship to Christianity. Prof. DeLowe is a graduate from Bombay College, Bombay, India, and is a fluent speaker possessing a rare quality of magnetism which holds his audience spell-bound from the very start. He promises to visit uromises to visit us from time to time while in the city, and we wish to extend him a hearty welcome. The following is highly appreciative mention of a very excellent gentleman who but recently visited our city, and while here gave messages of interest to large congregations at the Second Baptist and First A. M. F. Churches. Prof. DeLowe's description of social and religious, conditions in his own native land, India, was of striking interest, and it is hoped by many that he will appear before other audiences with his messages before leaving this section. ```markdown ``` THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE IN WRONG AGAIN. We note in the Citizen's Advocate a wall of anguish, anent the Patriotic service at Wesley Chapel last Sunday week. The wall was such a selfish one and shows such a smallness in humanity itself that it falls flat with its own force. It shows our brother editor up, as being disappointed because he perchance was not more in the spotlight; now, if the good brother came for that; the people came for entirely other reasons; among such, we came to take part in a patriotic service, the self-same service as the Chief Executive of the State has for many weeks been attending and addressing. Wesley Chapel had the honor on this Sunday morning. In the evening of the same day the great Temple Baptist Church had the same honor. In fact, he has been delivering practically the same address to all the largest Churches in the State. The editor's wall; "The Governor said nothing to shed light upon our future political pathway." He certainly did not talk politics, neither was it expected that he would, and no matter how antagonistic we were or how riled, because some people we did not like personally; was at the head of the meeting at Wesley Chapel, we deprecate the idea of casting slurs. We appreciated the affair the more from the fact that the Governor came there and addressed that audience just the same as he would any other audience. But after all, perhaps one good brother was looking for Jim-Crow, but did not get it, and has just had to say something anyhow. And further, we say not; only we take it that good Brother Shaw will survive, even though he has been represented as imposed upon. Shaw is a man who is amply able to take care of himself, for all that. We publish this for the simple reason we believe in the square deal. Whether we receive it or not we are always ready to give it and we will not stand idly by and let such hay-wash go forth without showing up the animus of the same, regardless of who we are for and to whom we support. We stand absolutely for justice.

She was a former member of the Helping Hand Club. Those present were Mrs. Catherine Morgan, Mrs. J. E. Freeman, Mrs. M. E. Woodbey, Mrs. Mary Newman, Mrs. Gray, Mrs. Benton, Miss Blanche Williams and Mrs. Frances and Marlan Humphrey. The whole affair was carried out according to Mrs. Marshall's own idea. The ladies were all dressed in accordance with the occasion, each wearing fragrant Cecil Bruner roses. All the guests were assembled into the parlor, while the guest of honor was hidden away until the last guest arrived, when she was brought forward by Mrs. M. E. Woodby as hostess, followed, by Mrs. Marshall herself. Mrs. Humphrey wore a black lace over old gold, wearing a bouquet of Cecil Bruner roes similar to the other guests. After remarks by Mrs. Humphreys to the old ladies, the guests were led to the table to enjoy the savory repast prepared for the occasion. After dinner the guests were so happily entertained by the graphaphone and Mrs. Marshall that they left for home at a late hour, and and none were so loath to leave as the little Misses Frances and Marian Humphrey. Little Lillian Curvin was waiter and served elegantly, for a child. Many beautiful tokens of friendship were tendered Mrs. Humphrey. The Fraternal Clubs held their annual Exchange Day on the 7th and 8th of June at Masonic Hall. The affair was a grand success. Mrs. G. Hayden is chairman of the Exchange Day. Mrs. E. E.

TENAS CLUB CELEBRATE JUNE NINETEEN. You talk about Your 19th of June, in the Lone Star State (Teas), and the many, many good things to eat, and the glorious enjoyments you had on these occasions. I venture to say that you would readily say that you never had a better time in all your life, never had more to eat, put before you, and all at your disposal. Every minute of the day was immensely enjoyed. At two o'clock the president of the Teas Club, Mrs. T. Williams, announced that all baskets were now to be opened, and everything was spread out upon the long tables. The Rev. Dr. B. R. Guy, of the A. M. E. Methodist Church, called the Texas Club to quietude, and all joined in singing the "Star Spangled Banner," after which thanks was turned to Our Father for His wonderful kindness and goodness to us, and for the bountiful supply of food before us.

Among these principles none is more important than that of Thrift, because the cultivation and practice of Thrift necessitates the cultivation and practice of most of the other good and proper principles of life. Thrift necessitates and leads one into industry, perseverence, self discipline and self control. The man practicing thrift has no time for or interest in bad companions, bad habits, etc. He is gaining in character and wealth daily and is on the sure road to success. There is no stronger inducement to Thrift than a Savings Account in your own Neighborhood Bank. Come in and see us today.

For the public From a sea of blood, thou shall stretch forth thy hand. Freed from all clutches, loosed the bandage band. By thy own bloodshed, shall thy shackles fall. And there shall come no more woes to appall. An emblem of thy bravery, gallantry; Thy hard-fought battles upon the shell-torn fields Shall bring the glory, shall the prestige yield; Oppression's hand shall loose its tearing hold, And of thy nobler self shall be portrayed the gold; No longer shall thy stand all speechless, mute. Fearing thy merit to proclaim, lest some refute. From the trammels of ignorance, thou hast broken way, Rich in endowments from thy Creator. working for thy brighter day; Thou hast been a pauper, destitute of this world's goods. Now thou shall rank with the noble, the great and with the good. Hilarious though thy spirit be, when shrapnells around thee fall. The bleaching canon's mournful roar shall not thy soul appall; For thou art never shrinking when the furious battles rage. And thy brave deeds and valor shall be written by the sage. No more despicable, demoralized, de- based shall men attribute shee. But they shall laud thy deeds, upon the pages of history In memory of thy heroes, that shall lay beneath the cold, dark sod. Great monuments shall rear their Great monuments shall rear their stately forms heavenward, toward God. The poets, too, shall sing a dirge to thy heroes unsung. Tinted with glory and beauty—a dirge for the victories' won. For you the brave, not faint-hearted; for you, the constant, the true. For you the Nation's last refuge, for you which none shall eschew.

The Prince also tried to impress upon their minds the necessity of helping win this war by buying Liberty Bonds and Thrift Stamps, because if we don't win this war we would be in worse circumstances than our forefathers were in slavery. Throughout his entire lecture he tried to bring home the reality of this war. In conclusion, he urged them to help the Government, because it took three things to win the war, and they were: men, money and the grace of God. He said this race should not feel inferior to other races, but rather superior, and proved by the Scripture that they were not an inferior race. Prof. Gumage De Lowe of Hindu- stan also gave an interesting lecture on this occasion, which was highly appreciated. He readily endorsed the statements made by the Prince and declared them to be good for our thoughts. Mme. J. H. Cuffee, Prop. A.J.Robet, Sons&Co.
