MASONIC FLAG UNVEILING Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 1, 1918 Editor Eagle: The patriotic feeling of the colored citizens of Los Angeles was logically demonstrated on last Friday evening Sept. 27th, when the five said lodges, F. and A. M., with music and appropriate exercises at their hall, 1209 ½ Central Ave., unveiled a handsome Service Flag in honor of the brethren who had been called to the front. Mr. W. A. Clark was acting Master of Ceremonies and beyond a doubt he measured up to the occasion. Mr. Clark is a new type of man in Los Angeles and among the Masonics he is always in the firing line, giving words of cheer and encouragement to members of the craft. Hon. T. A. Harris, our Most Worshipful Grand Master, a man of untiring ability and high ideals, spoke on "Optimism and the Future." His address was warmly received and he made a profound impression upon his audience. 'The following persons were assigned places on the program: Brother Edmunds, Shackelford, Jones, Smith, Johnson, Porter, Brown, Spencer, and Mrs. Saunders, Grand Matron of the Order of Eastern Star. All the participants on the program seemed to touch a tender spot in some one's heart for the manner in whinch they espoused the cause of the nation and the boys who had been drafted into service. The California Eagle REV. L. G. ROBINSON MAKES ENVIABLE RECORD As the pastor of Scott Chapel at Pasadena, Rev. L. G. Robinson has indeed made an enviable record. It has been his lot to serve in this capacity for three times in the past six years, and each time has turned it over in the best possible spiritual and financial condition, and a harmonious membership. Taking charge January 21,1918, he found the church with an indebtedness of more than $100.00 for current expenses which has not only been paid but $125.00 more for painting and $200.00 on mortgage debt of the same. Of the membership, nearly everyone of them was taken in by Rev. Robinson, and thus we have a practical demonstration in this case of a man's worth and service. Rev. Robinson has an unequaled record for efficiency as the head of the Janitor's Department at the City Hall and aside from that he has done great service for the Master. Rev. Robinson is an applicant for Chaplain in the Army and if successful we have no doubt but that his record in the army will be one of which all who know him as well as the Government itself, will feel proud. EXTRAORDINARY OPPORTUNITY. A chance to make money, 50,000 shares of what is promised to be the greatest mining proposition in Alaska can be bought in a lump at almost half of what it should sell for, in fact this stock can be bought for $1.00 per share provided all of it is bought in a lump. My opinion is that this stock will be worth $5.00 a share in the next year. I have all figures in my office. I would suggest that we form a co-partnership and take over the entire 50,000 shares. It would only mean a few hundred people agreeing to take $100.00 interest in the block of stock. I have never in my life attempted to sell Mining Stock. I do not care to sell this, but I would like to be one of a few hundred people who would take over this interest. I would be too glad to put my money in provided I can get enough people to take the matter over. The matter serves the closest investigation. This stock is owned by a man who put almost a half million dollars in the stock. In raising money he mortgage property in this city to the extent of $50,000, and he must sell this stock tobe able to redeem his property. For one time let us get together and take advantage of this chance to make for ourselves some real monev I would be glad to show anyone details of the Mine SIDNEY P. DONES, Suit 308-9-10 Germain Bldg. Bdwy. 1498. Owing to the fact that there are so many of the Eagle's readers that hail from the Lone Star State, we are producing from the Houston Observer, an article which will no doubt make all Texans stick out their chests. It follows: "Senator Sherman's recent tirade upon the administration in general and the part Texans are playing in particular, was very amusing, if not interesting and while the Observer cannot condemn or agree with everything the solon uttered on the floor of Congress, it does know that not only are White Texans making their presence felt at Washington, but former colored Texans are cutting big swats of ice throughout the country, from the Nation's Capital down. Perhaps the biggest position ever held by a race man in the history of the race in this country is now occupied by a Texas offspring, Dr. Emmett Jay Scott, a Houston boy, former newspaper man in this city, and product of Wily University, Marshall, who has been granted to serve as assistant secretary of war in the cabinet of President Wilson, during the war. Mr. Scott is an honor to his native State and is doing the race and nation calculable good. In the publishing business it remained for a Texan, Dr. R. H. Boyd, to lead all the other denominations of the race in the printing and publishing industry, and today the National Baptist Publishing House, Nashville, Ten., of which he is the distinguished and proficient head, ranks as the greatest plant of its kind among our people in the world. It affords decent and profitable employment to many race men and women and produces literature for the Baptist denomination. It stands as a monument to the brains and possibilities of the black Americans. It was a Texan, Colonel Franklin A. Denison, who has held the distinction of being the only member of the black race to lead a regiment of colored soldiers to the battlefields of France from America. In civil life he was honored with some of the highest positions in the state of Illinois, being assistant attorney general of that state at the outbreak of the present conflict. As a lawyer he stands shoulder to should-with the leading barristers of the Prairie State, and as a military expert and leader it has long since been conceded that he "knew his stuff and could peel his onion without getting any juice in his eyes." In the ministerial realm Texas has given the North a pastor for the largest church of that section, membership considered, which is the Olivet Baptist Church, Chicago, Ill., and the shepherd of that flock is the Reverend Lacy Kirk Williams, formerly pastor of Mount Gilead Baptist Church, Fort Worth, and a product of Bishop College, Marshall, Texas. As a pulpiteer Dr. Williams has no superior in the American pulpit, and was often called the "pulpit Demosthenes of Texas." In the Young Men's Christian Association work Texas has given the country one of her most noble and many sons in the person of Prof. John Brown Watson, himself a Bishop College product. He is an expert in Y. M. C. A. work and is city field secretary with headquarters in Atlanta, Ga. In the educational realm Texas can point with pride to Prof. J. R. E. Lee, the eminent and efficient principal of the Lincoln High School, Kansas City, Mo., and formerly dean of the academic department of Tuskegee Institute. Prof. Lee was the first collegiate graduate of Bishop College and as an educator has few equals in this country. In insurance the Lone Star State has given to America the leading light and guiding genius of the intricacies of that branch of business and today the Standard Life Insurance Company, Atlanta, Ga., attests this fact and the success of the concern is largely attributable to Hon. Heman Perry, who saw the light of day in this city. The medical profession in the Central West has been forced to look to Texas for thoroughly trained and well versed disciples of Aesculapius and Dr. J. E. Perry, Kansas City, Mo., was instrumental in launching one of the best equipped hospitals for the race in that part of the country. Now Chicago has seized Dr. B. R. Bluitt of Dallas, who hereafter will be associated with the famous and noted surgeon Dr. Daniel Williams of the Windy City. The first colored man to occupy the position of instructor in pathology at Shaw University, Raleigh, N. C., was a Texan, Dr. J. G. Osborne, acting principal of Prairie View State Normal and one of the leading scientists of the day, who for several years was dean of the science department of Bishop College, his alma mater. The only colored prelate in the Methodist Episcopal Church, North, to attain the bishoprio office, Bishop I. B. Scott, has the made-in-Texas stamp upon him and he is one of the most remarkable men of his church. In the legal profession Attorney Wilfred H. Smith, New York City—who claims Galveston as his starting ground and who was more instrumental in placing black men on the juries in Texas than all the other legal lights combined—ranks with the best lawyers that the East possesses and has made an enviable reputation in the Empire State. One of the most viborous and determined opponents of the reign of John Barleycorn in this country is Mrs. E. E. Peterson, Texerkana, who has given her life in an earnest endeavor to forever eradicate that hideous and nefarious monster from our domain and her name is known wherever the cause of a dry America has been proclaimed. In the theatrical world one only has to behold or read of S. H. Dudley, who rose into fame and prominence in the original Smart Set Co., and who is now a magnate and promoter. As a laugh producer he has few equals and no superiors and will be remembered as long as minreels is in the reminiscences of mankind. Others included in the theatrical galaxy of noted stage celebrities are Robert (Bob) Cole, Harry Fiddler and Comedian Skinner, to say nothing of others who have risen to heights on the legitimate stage. Our list would be far most incomplete were we to omit the noted author, orator, philosopher and lecturer, Dr. Sutton E. Griggs, Memphis, Tenn., who has long since been recognized, regarded and rated as one of the most prolific and profound speakers on the American platform. Dr. Griggs is a very deep thinker and has written some books that have materially assisted in bringing about a better understanding between the two races in the South. He has often been misunderstood and maligned. but his efforts for his race and mankind shall forever stand as an imperishable monument to his humanitarian and utilitarian service. Texas, Bishop College and the black race feel proud of this distinguished intellectual titan. In the political arena the Hon. Norris Wright Cuney stands out as one of the most astute and brilliant politicians in the history of the Republic and he was a most commanding figure not only in the Texas G. O. P., but in the national ranks. The political freedom that the race enjoys in Galveston today is the result of Cuney's great and untiring efforts on behalf of the race. He was against illy-whiteism in all its forms and was an uncompromising enemy to all forces that tended to block and retard the onward march of the party of Lincoln and Grant. In the evangelical field the late Rev. I. Toliver looms up as one of the most successful revivalists and gospel preachers of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and his onslaught against the bulwarks of satan made great inroads into the ranks of the satanic forces and many souls were added to the cause of King Immanuel. Though his eyes are closed in placid slumber, yet his work still goes on and all America reveres his sainted memory. In music Prof. Wm. A. Roseborough stands as one of the greatest composers of sacred music in the history of the race and though he has joined his fathers in that eternal city of rest and felicity, the Celestial Showers and other compositions of his proclaim in no uncertain tone and measure his greatness along his chosen line and his benefit to his race. His body sleeps beneath the sod in his native city, Marshall, and blessed is his repose. Now it is a Texan, Dr. Willis J. King, who hails from the precinct near Calvert, has shown the sporting world that Texas not only produces great and noted players of the national pastime, but that this State also develops men capable of managing and directing the best semi-professional team in America. The American Giants of Chicago, who have a monopoly on the semi-pro championship gonfalon each year, are living testimonials of his managerial ability and baseball astuteness. They have a habit of putting the kibosh on all the best white and colored, as well as mixed, aggregations of the North and East, and then weep for other teams to vanquish from the baseball map. The greatest heavyweight puglist of all time; the man who caused the sporting fraternity to spend sleepless nights and wearisome and weary days trying to sport out a bevy of hopeless "white hopes," to remove the world's championship crown from his dark dome; that fighter who feared no man in the ring, even if he did lose all his fights out of the roped arena; that mauler whose ebony-hued fist haunts Jim Jefferies to this late date; that pugilist of many and varied eccentricities and idiosyncrasies; the original and only John Arthur (Jack) Johnson is a Texas product and while we do not agree with nor subscribe to all that Jack did in civil and domestic life, it does not dispute the fact that he was one of the greatest and gamest fighters that ever donned the gloves and the entire race feels proud of his pugilistic attainments and accomplishments. In many other lines. Texans are proving their mettle in different parts of the country and even on the battlefields of France, for it is a grand old State and consequently its products THE LADY OF THE MIDDLE EAST HEAR HATTIE EZELL NORWOOD AT PHILLIPS CHAPEL ON NEXT MONDAY EVEN- ING, OCT. 7th At Phillips Chapel on Newton St. ear Hooper Ave., the public will have the first opportunity of hearing Mme. Hattie E. Norwood in recital. She is the phenomenal Lyric Soprano, heretofore practically unknown to a Los Angeles audience. She has been a member of the famous choir of that church, which choir is noted for the will inherit some of those good and great qualities and characteristics. The Lone Star State is a bright, glaring and sharing planet in the great twinkle, little star!" UNDER WORLD CASE RESULT SO FAR A DOG FALL The case of Lefty Peterson which has dragged through the Police Courts for some days was concluded on Thursday, finding the defendant not guilty on the charge of illeness, and guilty on the charge of intimacy with one named May Montgomery, and then on the testimony of the woman herself who said such had been the case several years back. Atty. Macbeth immediately appealed the case and it is now awaiting re-trial in the Superior Court. Atty. Macbeth said, "Peterson is bound to win on appeal, the charge was for being idle, lewd and dissolute between Sept. 6th and 16th." And Now The Issue. As the Eagle reporter can glean the Peterson case is only the bug under the chip, it appears to us that it has been exploited to show up sordid conditions on lower Central Ave., the whisperer has passed it along that there is a pay day for vice protection in these environs, and there is a great big paymaster to whom all payments are eventually due, and they are not either Geo. Brown or Geo. Henderson. It is also claimed that certain big Real Estate dealers up-town are tied up in the deal, and in the mean time vice goes as long as it pays off. It is said that East of Alameda, between 1st and 5th Sts., there are nigh onto 100 women who pay off to the tune of $15.00 per week, and that the money goes up-town. And to get NUMBER 34 Chapel galaxy of musical stars on its roster, and Mme. Norwood gives her first recital complimentary to this organization. Through Texas and other Eastern points last year Mme. Norwood appeared to the greatest advantage and sang to crowded houses. And all pronounce her a musical star of the first magnitude. The people of Los Angeles highly appreciative as they are of real talent, will doubtless grasp the opportunity of hearing Mme. Norwood on this occasion. at these conditions we verily-believe that the Poterson case aimed. In the case the court remarked that the testimony of the officers was anything but convincing. One witness on the stand, a woman who roomed at the St. Armes, testified that one of the officers came to her apartment near midnight and attempted to kiss her. The Plot Thickens: It is said that one of the alleged go-betweenes high decreed that the Cadillac Cafe must go, by way of losing its liquor license. This is according to high police authority, and from the same source that the evidence was furnished, the go-between for underworld graft and police protection. WATCH THE SOARING EAGLE. Anent our departure from staid lines of publicity, and our determination to give pitiless publicity to the loose moral conditions as the same reaches us, a mighty howl went up and there were some of them running to cover. The Eagle is after no individual, however, we are simply teiling the people the news. We have called especial attention to the Chinese Lottery joins that they are doing the business of the Eastside, Red Cross Drives, Liberty Bonds, notwithstanding, no wonder a large part of the people who are their patrons cannot buy War Stamps, or Liberty Bonds. We play no favorites. Two wrongs never make one right. And we would like very much to see the big apymaster up-town uncovered. How to the line, let the chips fall where they may. Keep your eye on the Soaring Eagle. ```markdown ``` What the Churches are Doing PAGE TWO CENTRAL AVENUE CHRISTIAN CHURCH Meets in the Masonic Temple, 1209½ Central Ave., near 12th St. Services for the Lord's day, Sept. 15th: 10—a.m. Bible School, L.

It was a good practical sermon that dealt with the everyday life of both saint and sinner, and the pastor poured out truth after truth uncompromisingly. Two accessions to membership were recorded. In the evening Judge Frank S. Forbes delivered his famous address in William Loyd Garrison. The message was well received and enjoyed by those present.

Sunday was a joyful day with New Hope. Rev. E. L. Brown of New Orleans in the morning preached a soul-stirring sermon, subject, "We must Run this race with Patience." Sunday evening, pastor Lively occupied his pulpit and delivered one of his wonderful sermons. Sunday being rally day the members and friends went "over the top," raising $246.10, which over-paid the indebtedness on the chairs.

The worshippers at this church at the close of the services on the past Lord's Day, were still exclaiming in the language of John: "We were truly in the spirit on the Lord's Day," one accession to full membership. We hope no one will fail to secure tickets and attend the Grand Recital, at 5th and Towne Ave., to hear the renowned Mrs. Pearl Lowery-Winters and Mrs. S. P.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH F. C. Gatton. Minister F. C. Cottran, Minister. The pastor's subject 11 a. m., "The People who reject God." Heaven is a unit they are agreed, the council of God is approved. The Pharisees and lawyers were a learned people and the lawyer's business was to teach the people the law of Moses. They were specialists in this work. With all their wisdom they rejected the council of God and refused to be baptized of John, even today it is the same. The people reject God by refusing to be baptized. We are told why John was near Salem, it was because there was much water there. Friends it takes much water to baptize. People today accept man's council instead of God's, pouring and sprinkling is of man's, nowhere does the gospel teach it. The pulpit is largely responsible for the condition of the world today by teaching all kinds of isms, the teaching of our Lord is now as it was by those Pharisees and lawyers who rejected it. We will be judged by the gospel and many will be turned on the left of God. Preaching next Lord's Day, 11 a. m., Subject, "The Lord's Supper; 7 p. m., Christian Endeavor; 8 p. m., Sacred Concert, under auspices of Choir. Judge Jas. Donovan principal speaker. You are invited.

There is a manifestation on the part of the people of this vicinity to rejoice at the re-awakening of Zion We can truly say that we have in the person of Rev. Mrs. Wilson a powerful instrument in the hands of God for the awakening of souls, and an embodiment of intelligence in Evangelism. We are having services each evening, prayer meeting and song service from 7:30 to 8:00, preaching at 8:00 Sunday Oct. 6th, we will have three services, 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. You are cordially invited to be present at any or all of these meetings.

Rev. J. Logan Craw, Pastor Both services this past Lord's Day were great. The pastor delivered the morning sermon and there were two accessions. Every participant in the Sacred Concert program, together with our matchless Choir, is deserving of the highest commendation for their respective renditions, each of which was a scholarly literary and musical treat. Two magnificent congregations were thoroughly delighted at this Holy Day's worship. The offering was very good. The Sunday School and Allen Christian Enleavor services were excellent. You are welcome to all of these services this coming Sabbath. Be punctual.

We must once again urge early attendance. The Lesson was most inspiring and the discussion that followed was of great value to those that took part. At the 11 o'Clock service a great and appreciative audience greeted Dr. Prowd, the pastor. The subject was that of God's Method of Answering Prayers, Exodus 23:18. "I Besech Thee, Show me Thy Glory," Moses asking to see the face of God, and God answering by assurance of His goodness passing before him. There was evidence of the Lord's presence—refreshing upon all. The Young People's Meeting was encouragingly helpful and the maniest spirit of sacrifice indicates increasing nearness to God in the service of our young people. The Missionary exercises at night were fraught with good things. A most excellent program was carried out, each one doing his and her part most efficiently. Dr. Prowd will have a special message; this Sunday morning for all. Coure out to hear it, and come early. At night we will observe the Lord's Supper. Every member of the church is expected to be present. The members of all the Clubs, those members who may not be in any club, and all the friends of the old Second Church, please take notice—That on the Second Sunday we shall have our FIRST RALLY for the NEW CHURCH. Now is the time to show your love and loyalty. Now is the time to show where you are standing. Our dear Young People are working hard for this purpose—Will you help or hinder them? Come and help build a NEW HOUSE FOR GOD. BAPTIST MINISTER'S UNION Rev. A. J. Williams, Pres. Rev. H. D. Prowd and Rev. W. H. Tillman reported their Sunday work to the Union. We were glad to hear such good reports from our brethren. We were also glad to see our Brother Prowd who has been away from us three or four weeks. Rev. W. H. M. Dickerson of Needles brought us a good report of his work at Needles. We were very glad to have our Brother Gladden out Monday Morning. Rev. S. W. Brooks of Detroit, Mich. was a visitor. He will address the Union soon. Mrs. M. L. Gottschalk also met the Union. She spoke to the Ministers concerning the Red Cross Drive. Rev. R. H.

All heads of departments be ready with your work for October. MISSIONARY SISTERS OF SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH RENDER INTERESTING PROGRAM Last Sundya evening the Woman's Missionary Society of the Second Baptist Church rendered a most interesting program at the second Baptist Church. The very interesting numbers were a paper on "Practical Christian Living," which was a masterpiece of logic and eloquence by Mrs. Sunshine Miller, a grand array of facts concerning "The Civilian Relief," a branch of the work of the Red Cross by Mrs. Minnie Davis the only colored woman in the city connected with that end of the work, and a paper on "The Meaning of Conversion," by the little Barber girl who is one of the recent converts and as yet a baby in years, and the cause, but so simple and impressive were the words of this little Miss that many whispered as they listened this saying, "And a little child shall lead them." Mrs. P. Hubert, the President, is to be congratulated upon the success of the evening. The bar and cafe of the Hotel Gordon, 750 Pacific St., San Francisco, Cal. The only colored first class hotel in the city where they have regularly entertaining every evening in the cafe. Side entrance for ladies and their escorts. The very latest songs. Entertainers: Miss Arline Bruemin, Miss Lillie Good, Miss Eva Shockley; at the piano Prof. Fields, the great rag timer. We wish to thank our many friends for their many acts of kindnesses during the long illness of our mother, and in our bereavement we wish to express heart-felt thankfulness for the beautiful floral pieces and sympathy.

The gay young widow up the street keeps her friends constantly guessing "who her "favorite" is; whether he is Mexican, American, or Portuguese; anyway, we do know that she would leave them all and go to France as a nurse or wife if the writer of the twenty-page letter had his way. For she is simply wild over Clarence. All love isn't blind; some of it is merely near-sighted. Mrs. B. A. Johnson, the donor of the Service Flag to St. Andrews S. S. and Mrs. F. A. Butler, Chairman of the Rally Day exercises are to be commended for the splendid program rendered Mrs. Butler worked hard and patiently with the little ones and succeeded in her aim to make that a memorable one. Rev. T. A. Harvey met with a painful accident Friday, when the jitney in which he was riding collided with another car and caused him to be thrown to the ground and injure his leg.

Both socially and financially. The Church was beautifully decorated with flags, ferns, pot plants and evergreen trees. The dining hall was decorated with beautiful flowers. Booths and tables were filled with good things to eat. The program was started by Mrs. Hamilton introducing the salvation Army Band, which played several selections.

Mrs. J. A. Stewart served punch. The social was very well attended by both THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE races The money raised is to install a heater in the church. What Stockton people want to know is when is that Charter of the N. A. A. C. P. going to come. Who started that married story around? Will J. A. S. go to war? FROM THE KNIGHTS OF COLUMB BLS NEWS SERVICE By JOSEPH J. CANAVAN from the front in France have added the final touch of amplification to the phrase contained in a German official statement when the big drive by American troops was at its heights a few weeks ago, and which noted that "black Americans" had hammered their way gloriously through the Hun lines. It was not, though, until the battle was over, according to the unofficial version of the same fighting, that the insurgent commander summoned the colonel of a negro regiment before him and demanded to know in three military fashion, why that colonel had not maintained better control over his troops and why above everything else he had not stopped his men and kept them from passing beyond their appointed objectives, and in fact, hacking their way through ahead of their own protective bartrage. Stop them! Quelled the colonel. Stop them! Holl man, now could not expect me to stop them when the whole German Army couldn't boot. The brigade commanders reply is not recorded, either officially or unofficially but the story is only one of a thousand that is being told of the admirable dash and courage of the Americans who conquered the negro units of the expeditionary force and which everyday are out there in the thick of the fighting and holding their place in the line wherever they may be called upon to do their military bit. In just the same manner the men who comprise these regiments are partaking of the carefully built up warfare work that is being accomplished on both sides of the water in the Knights of Columbus Commissions on War Activities. In fact they are receiving special attention both in the affairs in this country and K of Cathays in France and the work among the new troops grows under the operation of the selective service laws and by voluntary commitment the latter apparently being a particularly inviting method for nearer getting into the army.

ADVERTISING RATES: 50c per inch The California Eagle 1879 1915 J. D. Reynolds Have you purchased that Liberty Bond? If not do at once and do your part toward pushing the Hue over the Rhine. The old adage, that "water will always seek its level," and "birds of a feather will flock together," is evidenced in this city and in places least expectd. Eighteen soldiers paid the extreme penalty for the part they took in the Houston Riot, and now may we inquire what disposition have they made of the brute of a police officer Sharks whose act brought about the horrible tragedy. There is no branch of effort, wherein ignorance, superstition and incompetency will show a man or woman up quicker than newspaper work, if the staff fails to know their stuff though unwritten, the fact stands out in bold relief in box car lessons, and any person with the average intelligence is wise to the fact. No police officer need fear if they are doing their full duty at matter any paper may publish as news. The real truth of the matter is our papers fail to publish much matter which they should, because if a pernicious person knows that that the paper is going to publish their wrong doing, they will forego the wrong things. And now any of you who stand for the vicious part of our citizenry, and who take umbrage at our flings at the sordid conditions of the tenderioin, show your eyeballs. We will in our next issue make a center shot and woe be unto you, if you are itching for battle you shall be accommodated, be sure you can stand the gaff. When a man lives in a community and goes loaded to the teeth with letters telling who he is, also to show his acquaintance with prominent men or movements, you can safely put him down as the bunk. The man who is doing and accomplishing real service in the community in which he lives, needs no letters, no boosts, as work speaks for itself. The man or woman in this or any other community who, after hitting the line of effort for any great period of time and who fails in that time to discern some real progress, must stop and examine him- or her-self and find just what gear is out of order. This is an age of progress and there is no good excuse possible why the average man or woman should fail to make some sort of real progress. The Eagle has consistently pointed the way and we are convinced that it is the only way that will get us anywhere, and that is the fact that wemustbecome producers, if not from the soil then along some other line of effort, we must not expect after the war any quarter along industrial or commercial lines, unless we have demonstrated our ability to produce. We have passed through the vestibule of citizenship and cannot stand waiting for others to take the initiative for our welfare. We must get into the Producer's game along all the lines of effort, we must accept some of the yawning opportunities from the land from the mines and from the business walks of life, and demonstrate that Sambo also can produce even unto the utmost. PROGRESS OF FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN As the first week ends for the Fourth Liberty Loan Campaign, we note that in our various districts the progress of the society is not as encouraging as prophesied, and while we have no doubts as to the ultimate success and also that all of our districts will do their full duty, we want to urge our people to line up quickly and procure your bonds, the quicker the better. We have never yet failed, so lets go to it quick and have it over so that when the victory is acclaimed we shall share in the satisfaction that we have done well our part.

The play enjoyed was one of the favorite propaganda plays, "The Hun Within." In keeping with the spirit of the play each member of the party was identified by a dahlia tied with ribbon of the National colors. Surprises were offered in the form of packages of cigarettes which appeared to be shockingly real but when opened turned out to be delicious chocolate instead of nicotine. During intermissions, military favors consisting of unique little army hats, caps and tents containing candies were passed to the party, except Mme. Cole-Talbert, who received as her favor a tiny suitcase of sweets. The guests were Mesdames Cole-Talbert, Mason, Nelson, Tarleton, Johnson and Miss Johnson.

Owing to the interest manifest this same subject will again on next Sunday have the right of way. Mr. Baringer on invitation of the Forum addressed the body on "Co-operation," and emphasized some salient points to the clarification of all present. His forceful address was well received and many latent spirits along these lines were brought up to treasurable degree. On tomorrow "Along Business Lines" will be continued, and short and terse remarks will be put forth to assist in the propaganda for greater efforts along business lines.

L. Goodwin, was solemnized a very pretty little home wedding. The bride and groom accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Norwood, marched into the room to the beautiful strains of music furnished by Mrs. D. Wooden. The bride looked her best, dressed in a beautiful robe of white; as also did the groom who was dressed in black. They steed under a wedding bell made of Ivy and pink Carnations, while the Ceremony was performed by Rev. P. E. Robinson. The room decorations were of white and pink Carnations, and Ivy and ferns. The bride being the efficient secretary of the Carnation Club and being the first to take unto herself a husband, the Carnation Club members spared no pains to make the wedding a successful one. Many, many beautiful presents were received, a special mention of a beautiful solid oak Library Table donated by the Carnation Club and a beautiful set of dishes donated by a number of friends going in together. All of the beautiful presents received are too numerous to mention, showing the many loyal friends to the bride and groom. Ice-cream and cake was served in abundance by a committee of the club, and the bride's cake was cut by the bride herself, giving each one present a piece to take home and dream over. As Rev. P. E. Robinson was the founder of and Mrs. Robinson the first president of the Carnation Club, he took pride in being honored in performing the ceremony. Mrs. Robinson in her appreciation to Mrs. C. E. Norwood and the bride in being so loyal to the Club, presented to Mrs. Norwood a little diamond ring, and to the bride a lovely gold Bracelet, which will ever be kept in her remembrance. Many very appropriate toasts were given to the bride and groom, and a special mention is to be given one presented by Brol James gray, as follows: I wish you gold in store, I wish you Heaven after death. How could I wish thee more?" The wedding bella which rang for these two hearts to be made one, also represented the closing of the Carnation Club until the first week in January. Mr. and Mrs. Wates, Mr. and Mrs. Norwood and daughter will leave for Imperial Valley on the 15th of this month for an indefinite stay. Mrs. C. E. Norwodd made a flying trip to Los Angeles this week to make reports to the California Eagle and to make arrangements for someone to keep up the agency while she is away on a vacation. Mrs. L. A. Jones has kindly consented to do this, and anyone wishing any news published will please see or call Mrs. Jones-Hillcrest 1529-W. Mr. M. A. Hayden returned home from his visit with mother and other relatives and friends in Texas. He reports having a very pleasant time while there. The members of the Texas Cafe met and transacted so much business on last Tuesday evening that the reporter is actually ashamed to tell what was really done, but must say, "Please be careful next time, for it may be printed." Miss Rosie Dolamine of Lexington, Va., is a visitor of the city and will remain here till Spring. The Home Guards canceled their drilling for Monday evening and held a business meeting. Sgt. I. Woodin, was promoted to 2nd Lieut. by his merits, Corporal M. T. Laws was promoted to Top Sargeant, seven other men were elected as sargeants and corporals, promotion was given those who attended regularly and showed enthusiasm in the drills. Capt. R. C. Plenty and Sgt. R. E. Chapman deserve credit for their earnest and caretaking patience that they are using in uniting and cementing the minds of the Negroes of this city together, to teach them brotherly love and friendship. Men and women that are born true leaders must be intelligent, progressive and true blue to their race, so as to bring them out of the jaws of bondage to the hand that is stretching to them freedom and equal rights. Then to prove that Mr. Courtney, manager of the "Creole Cabaret" was not a leader, he was a destroyer of the race. The action that Chief Mullen of the police department took in closing this Hell-hole is greatly favored by the loyal law-abiding citizens of this city.

This place of vice had its doors open to the degraded white man to buy the souls of these beautiful girls as they did in the days of slavery, but our Negro men were not welcome. Negro citizens don't allow Mr. Courtney to conduct a place of this kind as it is a detriment and a hindrance to the negro race. Negro men, protect your women as all other races protect their's. Are you ashamed of these beautiful women? or is it that you are afraid to speak and demand your rights? Don't permit the low and degraded white man to drag your daughters and mine to destruction.

Technical and Mechanical Equipment Offered at Leading Institutions—Students Army Training Corps in Collegiate Section—Government prepares Young Men for Military Service and for Civic Pursuits after War. Washington, D. C., Sept. 15: Mr. Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, announces: The War Department has worked out a highly comprehensive system of mental and manual training for the young colored men who have been called into the United States Army, or who are likely to be called through the new selective draft law. The educational systems have been adopted to increase the efficiency of man-power of the military service. The first is the Training Detachment, or Vocational Section, which has already proven its value as an agency for the betterment of the embryo soldiers through the nearly 3,000 that have been turned out as skilled workers in many technical branches, all of which tend to improve their chances for usefulness and advancement in the army and qualify them for livehood after the war. Some of the subjects embraced in the courses offered at the schools set apart for this vocational training are: radio or wireless telegraphy; electricity; auto-mechanics and chauffeurs; truck driving; blacksmithing; wheelwrighting; carpentry; bench wood-work; cobbling; concrete working; horse-shoeing; pipe-fitting, etc. Training Detachments and Vocational Sections.

This observance may take the form of receptions at your headquarters, a rally, public demonstration, public speeches or any other form that best fits the needs of your particular unit, but in each and every instance it should be a day set aside for extra effort in sale of bonds by all women. We are asked to render a separate report of bonds sold on Saturday, Oct. 5th by our committee, together with a complete and definite statement of bonds sold prior to Oct. 5th. If this be possible, kindly send this report to us on the evening of Saturday, Oct. 5th. I realize this is giving you short notice, but the telegram from Washington has only reached me today and I forward the message to you at once. Our returns on this, our first report day are most excellent and I believe that the Woman's Committee should feel encouraged. Will each committee be sure that every bond either bought or sold by women be included in your report to this office? Secure also as definite a statement as possible of such bonds turned directly to your Banks, reporting the same to this office. Thanking you for the splendid effort you are each and everyone making and feeling that success is assured if we continue said effort. I am, Yours for patriotic service. MRS. J. T.

His business career is a baffle to even his closest friends, and to outsiders, they often refer to him as, "How does he do it." Dones is possessed of a natural gift, that gift is a good disposition, mixed with winning personality, which alone makes him approachable by any man or woman no matter what their walk in life may be. To those who have opposed him for any reason in the past, seem to think that their opposition has only inspired and pushed him forward. He is not a politician, he caters to neither click nor clan, but when he goes out for a Candidate it is either for himself or some other race man. He has proven in the Robertes Campaign that he was first for the race, by withdrawing his own candidacy for Assemblyman from the 74th District in favor of his friend. Fred Roberts, this results in our having, no doubt, a race nominee at this time. The race is now on and the aspirants for judicial honor from now on, will be the busiest of the lot. With the closing of the registration on today notwithstanding the Liberty Loan Campaign, a red hot barrage for things political will be laid down and the various aspirants will essay to go "over the top." Judge J. W. Summerfield as in the primaries will doubtless run in the same form at the general election. The judge not only excels in meeting out an even handed justice, but he is a thoroughbred gentleman along all lines, broad-guaged and generous to a fault, he has gained the confidence of the people, he is the peoples' man. Gahart, the candidate entered as an independent, and who opposes the regular Republican nominee in the 74th Assembly District, is an old line democrat, but thinks he can fool people into voting for him, and by some that he is going to run on a Vardaman platform. ```markdown ``` Left; Right, Left, Right; Left, /ight, Don't Forget to fulfill Your Patriotic Auly Buy Liberty Bonds SAYWGS HOME BANK HOSPITALITY SAVINGS BROADWAY AT EIGHTH NIGHT AND DAY BRANCH COMMERCIAL SECOND AT SPRING 7 BRANCH BANKS FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE J.

Next Sunday the pastor will preach in the evening, subject, "Freedom in Deed." Mrs. Bass, Managing Editor of the eagle spoke at the Woman's Club House, opening night of the Bazaar.

Bids are about to be let for putting a concrete floor in the basement and making some other improvements that will put the building in A GREAT NIGHT IN WATTS. With a record breaking crowd that over taxed the capacity of the A. M. E. Methodist Church of Watts, Sept 26th, the Mary Church Terrell Red Cross Auxiliary was organized and made a permanent chapter of this great organization. Mrs. Brooks Johnson, the president acted as toastmistress, and introduced Mrs. E. F. Lindsey, of the Red Cross Society of Lr. A. who in a thorough, manner outlined the aims and duties of Red Cross Workers. The speaker of the evening was Caprice Murray McInaney, of Manilla who touched upon every phrase of benefit that the organization and war movements would eventually bring to our people. A point of importance in his address was, "Interest every race woman and girl in Watts on your work. Become efficient in every line of your duties. Learn everything possible and be prepared. You may not have the opportunity to be of service in the theatres, of fighting in the present war, but your chance to use knowledge gained must come some day perhaps the Indians might break out and attack your city, and someone must be prepared to administer to our sick and attend to the wounds of our wounded, and that duty falls upon the shoulders of our women." The Eighty Dollars previously raised was increased to One Hundred on this occasion. Prof. DeLow of India was also one of the speakers of the evening and made an elephant address on conditions as they affect his country. Excellent musical numbers were rendered and after a few timely remarks by Rev. Davies, the pastor, refreshments were served, bringing to a close one of the most successful and pleasant nights enjoyed by residents of Watts. BAKERSFIELD NEWS. Rev. W. M.

He was evidently in attendance at the National Baptist Convention which convened in St. Louis, Mo. There he was met by many workers of older years, and warmly received by members of the convention who had noticed his presence for the last ten years. He was among the many who stood on the platform with that maternal leader of men—Dr. E. C. Moras when he sounded the gavel and called to order the 35th session of the great convention which has now passed into history with credit to the race and the denomination. Pastor Holt filled his place provided in the program with credit to himself and to the delight of the many thousand that filled the ample space in this great Auditorium. So unassuming was he that he declined the position as one of the Vice-President of the Convention, wishing to have the honor conferred upon his superior or officer, Dr. H. D. Prowd. Minister of the Western Baptist Association of California, who had not yet arrived. He was, however, chosen a member of the Educational Board of which Dr. A. R. Griggs is Chairman, and of the Foreign Mission Board as before. Pastor Holt visited Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, and many cities of the South, including Denison, Fort Worth, Muskogee and Tulsa. He was heard in many pupils in his travels and leaves behind him an open door. He desires to give the public the benefit of his experiences and travels, and has arranged to deliver a lecture entitled, "The Providence of God as portrayed on Nature's Canvas," together with a full report of the Convention held at St. Louis. This will be given at the St. Paul Baptist Church Sunday afternoon, Oct. 13th, from 2 to 2:30 o'Clock. You will miss a rare treat should you fail to hear him. All are invited and pastors are expected to be present as he has things to say which concern all. That the people of St. Paul Baptist Church realize the importance of the "Man at their head" is evidenced by the many kindnesses shown him by the entire church community. He will go to the Convention at Newark, New Jersey next year. Come to St. Paul on second Sunday evening. SCOTTISH RITE NOTICE. Los Angeles Consistory No. 26, A. A. S. R.

THE PASSING OF FATHER VENA (by Willis Olliver Tyler) Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be. The last of life, for which the first was made. Our times are in his hand. Who saith, "A whole I planned. Youth shows but half. Trust God; see all. nor be afraid. In the recent death of the venerable M. Cyrus Vena, the city of Los Angeles lost a man whose life was a monument of mobility and fine character. It was said that he was probably ninety years old. What a wold of events through which he lived. So far as the political history of the United States is concerned, he lived through the period in which arose the most momentous questions that our public will ever be called upon to decide. The Mexican War; the Repeal of the Missouri Compromise; the Fugitive Slave Law; the War of the Rebellion; Reconstruction Legislation; the Spanish-American War; and our present glorious participation in the great War of Europe in which we seek to safeguard the Democracy of America, and carry it to all the peoples of the world. All these came to pass in his life time, and in all of these matters, he had the activity and sympathy and views that actuated the best thought and conduct of the American people. With what wisdom those questions were decided, every student of history knows. That Father Vena should have lived to see this great experiment in Democracy, our own United States, rise above the difficulties one after the other that precipitated themselves in the path of our republic's growth was a mark of Divine favor, and like the rainbow which is the Divine promise that the world will never again be destroyed by flood, his longevity indicates that the righteousness of a good and true man is an essential par of a nation's evolution, remaining with it to guide, to counsel and to hold aloft the banner of its highest ideals. Viewing his day, by struggles of the Negro Race, he lived through changes even more tremendous, taken as a whole, than the changes which affected the general growth and advancement of the Republic. He saw had added its work as a trustee and friend for many years. Wilberforce University was founded before Emancipation came, and its influence* in Ohio grew and unfolded until the attitude of the North respecting the capacities and possibilities of the Negro Race was changed from one of hostility to one of helpfulness and relief. He saw the rise of the great African Methodist Church, and for 7.5 years was one of the strong men of the laity. For some time a member of the City Council of Nenia, Ohio, he eventually came West and continued to carry out the same high purpose and firm resolve for civic improvement and racial uplift, that he had shown by the high Christian character he so happily attained and exemplified in Ohio. Few instances are recorded where the Flag over the City Hall of a City of a half million population in the United States has been lowered to half mast in honor of the passing out of a member of the Negro Race. Cannot we all learn from this that there is honor and respect and glory to be obtained in this republic by everyone who holds fast to his course and never takes his eyes from the stars. Can you think of his life, his venerable age, his love of home and family and God and fellowmen without remembering those words of Browning from Rabbi Ben Ezra?— Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be. The last of life, for which the first was made. Our time are in his hand Who saith, "A whole I planned, Youth shows but half; Trust God; see all—nor be afraid Trust God; see all.—nor be afraid. AT THE ANGELUS THEATRE "The Daughter of the Don."

Payne and family of Allensworth, Cal., was the occasion for numerous enjoyable affairs. A number of dinner and breakfast parties in their honor have been given, a reception at the Social Hall given Capt. and Mrs. Wm. Reynolds was a very enjoyable win, but the Picnic Dinner given at Lincoln Park on Tuesday evening, Sept. 17th by Mrs. Wm. Lawson and Mrs. Mattie Griffin was the climax to all that went before. Although Dr. Ower was called away to Allensworth and other northern cities before his delightful outing came off. Prof. Payne and family were on hand to enjoy the pleasurable association with a host of friends who came from Pasoana in two large trucks, and many private autos. After a bountiful luncheon under the electric candle and moon-light, the larger part of the crowd took boats for an hour's fun and frolic on the Lake, while others amused themselves otherwise. At 10:00 o'Clock all re-entered the trucks and autos and returned to Pasadena a very happy crowd, satisfied with the very successful outing. The Brotherhood Club of the Friendship Baptist Church held its Social meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Troy on North Orange Ave. Thursday evening, and Mr. and Mrs. Troy proved splendid hosts and a very enjoyable evening was spent by the men folk. The Educational Committee appointed by the W. B. Association at San Diego of which Dr. W. H. Tillman is the Chairman, held its first meeting at the Parsonage of the Friendship Baptist Church. Friday evening, Sept. 20th at 6:00 o'Clock. A luncheon was served at the expense of the Chairman and plans were laid for the work that the committee has in mind to carry out of which a full account will be given in the next issue of the Eagle. The sick of Pasadena are all improving and we hope to see them all out soon The Sunday School of the Friendship Baptist Church under the leadership of the Supt. Ralph Troy and Mrs. Alberta Fields, President of the W. B. S. S. Convention journeyed to Monrovia on Thursday evening in auto trucks and private cars, giong to the Baptist Church of that city of which Rev. Wilson is the pastor, and rendered a splendid patriotic program with the children of the Friendship Sunday School, with a short address by Prof. Payne. The singing by the boys of Class No. 7 was a feature of the program the whole of which wass well received by the Monrovians, for which they voted thanks and expressed hearty appreciation. The Friendship Sunday School not only entertained, but gave the little school there a nice collection as well as brought all the refreshments that they had to sell. About 10:15, 6'Clock the journey to Pasadena was resumed and all were of the opinion that it was the most unique and beneficial outing in which they had ever participated. All the classes were under the chaperonage of their teachers, and their department was excellent. Prof. and Mrs. W. A. Payne and family ended a very pleasant vacation in Pasadena by returning to Allensworth on last Saturday where Prof. Payne will take up his duties as Principal of the school there. Mrs. Margaritt Prince the assistant teacher at Allensworth also left for her field of labor. On account of the increased fare from Pasadena to Los Angeles, quite a number of families are moving over to the City where the bread winners of the families are employed. The Rev. L. G. Robinson ended his very successful pastorate of Scott Chapel M. E. Church on last Sunday, and will go to Conference at Bakersfield this week and hopes to bring back the newly appointed pastor for Scott Chapel with him. Rev Robinson is also taking his much needed vacation from his duties as Chief Janitor of the Hall of Records and the force will be in charge of the assistant chief janitor, Mr. J. H. Date during his absence. The Y. W. A. Missionary Society of the Friendship Baptist Church had full charge of the services at Friendship on last Sunday, it being the 5th Sunday and Missionary Day. The pastor, Rev. W. H. Tillman, preached an excellent sermon at the 11 o'Clock service giving much honor and an equal place to the women with the men in every walk of life. At S. p. m. an excellent program was rendered under the direction of Mrs. Simpson. An address by Mrs. Alberta Fields, President of the W. B. S. Convention, a reading by Mrs. Jackson of Los Angeles, and a solo by another Mrs. Jackson of Los Angeles were the features of the evening. The Mrs. Jackson the singer has a very excellent Soprano voice and is a most pleasing singer. A number of the colored of Pasadena met at the Friendship Church on last Monday evening for the purpose of organizing a woman's council of defense for greater war activities, a full account of the organization will be given in the next issue of the Eagle and its purposes set forth. Junction City, Kans.. Sept. 21, 1918. Mrs. Bass this is a little article that I think worth while mentioning $ ^{\circ} $ to the readers of your paper. Another young man and myself by the name of Sgt. S. W. Russell were on leave of absence from the Camp at Kansas, which is known as Camp Funston. After we had reached our destination, which was Junction City, Kans., we began to feel just a little hungry, so we entered the first place we saw that we thought we might get what our money called for, so we stepped into a little joint that was known as Dick Foll's Eating Place No. 2. When we got inside everything which was in motion seemed to have stopped and all eyes were turned on us. We sat down and gave our order without being asked. The waiter gave our order to the cook. After a few minutes of hesitation he turned and said, "We don't serve colored in here." We then said, "What do you mean you don't serve colored in here..." He explained that it was the instruction from the good service we would have (4) to Restaurant No. I which was one of two doors from this one. Russell and I arose from our seats and looked the cook in the eyes and asked him. "Do you absolutely refuse to serve us?" His reply was, "Yes." We went outside just as peacefully as we had entered. Not being accustomed to such action I thought it best and wise to take the matter up with someone that I knew could make matters better and not any worse. While standing in front of the place, in spite of our being Uncle Sam's Soldiers, there passed Lieut. Simmons. (White). I saluted him, and he returned it. While standing at attention I said, Sir, is it permissable for a eating place of this kind that is supposed to be opened to the public, to refuse to serve a man in uniform because of his color?" He answered, "No! Come with me to the place where they refused to serve you, and we did so. The place was by this time pretty well crowded, but when the Lieut. spoke all, eyes were centered upon him and us two colored soldiers. He wanted to know why it was that us colored boys could not be served. The manager walked up and said, "We don't serve colored, that's all." The Lieut. then said, "If you don't realize it, I will tell you, these are United States" Soldiers, just the same as the rest, even though they are colored, and they are to be cared for the same as the rest, and without further argument you feed them, and feed them d——quick, just as long as they have money to pay for what they order." His orders were carried out, we finished our meal, and came out. DR. J. D. GORDON WRITES OF CHICAGO. Chicago, HI, Sept. 25, 1918. Dear Mrs. Bass, Editor-in-chief of the California Eagle. Permit me through the columns of your paper to say something of our trip to this great city. We arrived here on the evening of the 17th. We found the delegates to the great Equal Rights Congress in session, the delegates were from every section of this country. What was done there will be first reported to the Forum. I wish to speak of Chicago and its most progressive population. In territory this is one of the largest cities of the world. And the people are bold in declaring that its greatest city in the world. Chicago evidently must be in many ways, a great city. For this city dares to treat its Negro Citizenry with consideration. This has resulted in bringing out the very best in the Negro. This city has for some time, been the haven for the oppressed Negroes of the South, and so you find them here in great numbers, not the riffraff, but many of the very best known Negroes of the race are renosing here apparently awaiting the dawn of complete emancipation to the race. There are avenues here where it few years ago a Negro could hardly get to be janitor, the entire block is now owned and controlled by Negroes. In fact you have to get on the car and ride for sometime before you can find the White settlement. The White people here deserted their mansions and apparently fed, and the Negroes are serenely moving on, even to other sections of the city, and wherever they go the whole block will be surrendered, and theat without any bitter contention. If the Negroes don't care to own the entire city, it seems that they had better meet and decide it themselves, less they weary their good-natured White friends. It would appear that the Negro would be over elated at this peculiar advancement, but he seems to regard it as a matter of course, and you would certainly expect to see him fall away from his devotion to church life. I don't think I have ever seen the Negro anywhere, more alive to church going and church life. He goes out in such great numbers that in the leading churches there are over-flow meetings, and church love and church life are very strong with them. Our great Dr. G. W. Bryant, builder of the Eighth and San Julian St. Church has made for himself a name which can never die. He took a little church which was occupying last year a little store twenty by forty, and today he is occupying one of the grandest church plants in Christendom, it is so magnificent that it baffles description. He is presiding elder of this district also, and he is laying hands on other valuable church properties for his less fortunate brethren. There is no man in this connection doing what Rev. Bryant is doing. Whether the church raises a monument to his memory or not, he has certainly obligated the church and race to him for ever, through the work he has done. More in next letter. J. D. GORDON THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE C Metropolitan Hair Store and Costuming Establishment The only race establishment on the Pacific Coast where you may be fitted up in anything made from HAIR and secure the most fastidious costume for Masquerade Balls, Tacky Parties, or Colonial Dances.

A beautiful service flag was unfolded during the service. W. A. Clark of St John's Lodge was Master of Ceremonies. --- The Friday Morning Iroquois Social Civic Club met with Mrs. M. L.

Daniels of Nevada, Mrs. Lutu Slaughter, Vice-Pres of Colored Women, Federated Clubs, and Mr. Fredrick M. Roberts, candidate for Assemblyman of the 71th District, who was the speaker of the day.

Mamie Slappey were united in marriage by Rev. N. P. Greggs, pastor of the People's Independent Church of Christ, of which the bride is a members. At nine o'Clock, to the beautiful wedding march, played by Mrs. C. J. Smith, the couple took their places beneath a beautiful arch of flowers, the bride supported by Mr. C. J. Smith, while the groom was attended by her sister, Miss DuPart. After the ceremony, hearty congratulations were offered by the large assemblage of guests. Refreshments were segged and all departed wishing them a happy journey through life. --- On Thursday evening last, Masonic Hall was the scene of a brilliant gathering of members of the Order of the Eastern Star and the Masonic Fraternity, the occasion being the dedication of affectionate Chapter O. E. S. No. 18, by the Worthy Grand Patron, S. P. Johnson, and Worthy Grand Matron, Mrs. H. Sanders of San Diego.

The music lovers of Los Angeles were well repaid for their attendance at the Pearl Lowery-Winters Recital, held on Monday evening, Sept. 30th, at the Independent Church. The program was especially well selected and showed off to advantage her wonderful voice. Her rendition of "The Cry of Ralph" by Salter was a revelation, and her interpretation of that masterpiece that none but the truly great dare attempt was so vivid as to be truly phenomial. The mad despair, the longing and wailing for dea h, were so startlingly expressed that one was completely overcome by the very frenzy of it and she seemed a human soul sobbing, bewailing, imploring, till one forgot things of this mundane sphere and drifted and clung to the minor cadences of that heaven-seat voice till he was completely drunk with the very triumph of it. Shubert's Serenade was perhaps the most popular number because it is so universally known for its melody. In this number she was accompanied by the violin in the hands of the capable Mrs. Bessie Dones, whose instrument seemed sobbing to tell you the mysteries of heaven. "Daddy's Sweetheart" was a quaint lifting oddity that should receive especial mention, accompanied on the piano by Miss Fannie Wilson, whose playing displayed technique, understanding and power. We understand that she is a product of the Wilkin's School of Music. We would like to hear more of her and we predict for her a wonderful future. Mrs. Alpheus Osborne's Solo was one of the features of the evening; also the the Bass Solo by Mr. Thomas Johnson was especially good and was well received. The program as a whole was away above par. The instrument used was a Stelnway, secured from the Southern California Music Co., through the helpful influence of Prof. Wilkins. Pearl Lowery-Winters seems as proud of the people of Los Angeles as they do of her. She is our very own you know. The crowd came, not because of press agenting, not because of laurels won in places far remot, nor because of idle curiosity. All who came were there because they had heard her sing and wanted to hear that magic voice again. That voice which completely masters and interprets all of the passions and leaves one feeling breathless and suspended at its power. Flowers in abundance, evidenced love and appreciation from many friends.
