There are many things which contribute to the success of an ideal church, and chief among these is the faithful and loyal attendance of its members. Some members think as long as they keep up the financial part of the church, their presence regularly is not required. But how do we expect to become spiritually benefited if we do not come out to the House of the Lord. Are the members showing their loyalty to the church and a deep interest in its welfare when they are spasmodie in attendance and pernas not seen for 2 or 3 years? My friends let me impress this upon your minds, it is not merely having our names on the church book that counts, but it is the faithful service we render. Let us not depend on the efforts of one or a faithful few who are striving to make our church the best, but remember there is work for each and everyone of us to do and it is our duty to continue stedfast in the faith and worship of the Gospel. Our attendance is an inspiration to the pastor. When he sees us in our respective places in the prayer meeting class room and at the Sunday service, he knows that we are interested; first, in our own soul salvation and then in the welfare of the church, and it also enables him to know who the members are. It is well for us not to forget that the success of the pastor, lies in the cooperation of the members. We too, can be instrumental in getting christians who have recently come to our city and have not affiliated with any church, to cast their lot with us and perhaps might be the means of some inner being converted if we show our loyalty. When some of us stay away from church a long time and are asked the reason why we do not attend, instead of criticizing and finding fault with the church, the pastor, or some member, let us examine ourselves first, and see if we are doing our duty and then let us not make excuses that we cannot conscientiously offer to our "Lord and Master," because we promised upon being obligated into this church at this sacred alter in the presence of the congregation and before God, that we would cheerfully begovemed by the rules of the A. M. E. Church and would do all in our power to make it a success. Therefore regardless of criticisms, persecutions and false reports, let it be resolved by each and every member that from now on we intend to help make First A. M. E. Church, 8th and Towne Avenue, the best by our faithful and loyal attendance. How We Can Make Our Church The Best By Giving. By Veola Brown, Class No. 10 Few seem to realize that the Christian faith is based upon such words as these—God so loved the world that He gave. It begins, it continues and it ends in that law of giving. The first step in giving must be a surrendered life for the service of God. By giving ourselves we give the highest gift and after we give ourselves it is certain we will give our means. The gift without the giver is bare, there are the highest gift must be given and then there will be no question about giving the lower gifts. With God there is but one motive in which to give and that is the motive of love in which He gave all to us. All that we possess is God's gift to us and He only requires us to give to Him such a part as will serve in the interest of His kingdom. No greater cause than the church makes an appeal to the people and no organization has a higher or greater claim. When the apostle established the Christian church they put giving on the level with prayer and faith, so giving to the church was not created by people of today as many seem to think. Now money is needed to meet the financial needs of the church in its great effort to push forward the work of winning the world for Christ. One of the first great uses the church makes of money is the direct support of the gospel by paying men and women who devote their time as pastor, and evangelists to preach to the people and teach them. Anyone who would withhold their money from the support of these faithful workers certainly has no conception of true Christian work. Money is also needed to keep the church in repair, to keep it heated, lighted, cleaned and all that is necessary to make the church a comfortable place in which to worship. The support given to missionary efforts, schools, hospitals and many institutions which Christianity alone has caused to come into existence are only a few of the sacred uses the church makes of money. It is certain that no organization spends money which results in greater good or benefit, as much as the money given to the church. Now, realizing that God is continually giving to us, let us show our gratitude by making our lives better and our church the best by giving to God's cause as He has prospered us. Let us not give grudgingly or of necessity remembering that God loveth a cheerful giver. Let us give generously for no one ever loses who gives generously to God. And in conclusion I appeal to each one to give always i n the spirit of love to God's cause. Remember that when you give you not only give back to God that which He has given to you; you not only help the noblest cause; but the deed is a treasure laid up in heaven. Will you not make this motto true to your life. What I spent, I had. What I saved, I lost. What I gave away, I have still. There is nothing that will create life and enthusiasm as boosting. There is nothing so contagious as enthusiasm. The things we are interested in we boost; we become enthusiastic over them. If this is true in every day life how much more so should it be with our church. If we are really interested in our church (and we should be as interested in our church as in our homes) we should be as anxious for the success of our church home as we are about the success of our own homes. Do you know that every knock you give your church or every knock you allow someone else to give your church helps to make empty pews in your church? Folks will say if you a member will knock your own church how do you expect outsiders to attend. In every nine cases out of ten where pews are empty the trouble is not with the pastor or officers, but with the members in the inside knocking on the outside. If you want to kill, bury, and embalm your church don't come; if you do come, come late. If it is quite wet or dry, hot or cold, stay at home. When you come look for faults; don't do anything to help, don't take part in the meeting; try not to encourage the pastor or officers they don't need it. Believe everything you hear and repeat those things especially that show a slight weakness somewhere. Don't give anything! if you have a friend that does not belong, use your influence to keep them away. Consider the church as conducted for your personal benefit and when things don't suit you get angry and stay away. Start for the door at the close of the benediction and stampede any prospective members before they hear a good report of the work being done. Advertise the great work done by all churches except your own. Pay no attention to strangers that come to the church. Everybody that carries a hammer is not a carpenter, they might be a knocker. "By their fruits ye shall know them," sayest the Master, but not by the tools they carry. These are some of the things that tear the church down; but what we want to do is to build it up. Never let anyone think that there is more going on at their church or that their church is better than youra by visiting too often, for it is said that "Actions speak louder than words." Remember that "charity begins at home then spreads abroad." If you would have your church the best don't allow anyone to run down your church, officers, pastor, presiding elder, or bishop. Remember, this is your church, your pastor is here for office, short time of the impatient and you are here for a life time. Let us all get in and work together ever boosting and lifting our church and humanity. Let us live the life of real Christians, taking for our example Jesus Christ. Let us apply the Golden Rule in our lives; let us be boosters not knockers; let us be builders and not wreckers; let us be Christians and not professors; and by being true hearted boosting members we can make our church the biggest and best. A RECEPTION FOR OUR HOME COMING SOLDIERS. A Reception will be held the last week in this month. The Citizens Committee is calling upon every citizen to help make this event a success. It requires money and work. The job is too big for any single civic body. Therefore every patriotic loving person is requested to be at the V. M. C. A. next Friday evening. This city has been the most backward of all American citites in doing honor to the men who were fortunate enough to be able to return. Bring someone with you next Friday evening, that our duty may be discharged in a creditable manner. RETURNED SOLDIERS WELCOMED. Thursday evening the young womens Missionary Auxiliary of the New Hope Baptist Church in welcome to the returned soldiers invited them, their friends and relatives to their home church. Lieuts. Stovall and Ballard recited interesting incidents with which they were connected during the war. The ovation given the boys by Mrs. Grey, President of the Society did indeed express the kindness which friends and relatives have for the boys. Mrs. C. A. Bass with her talk stirred the audience—"You have fought the fight of the truest soldier, now demand your rights as a man—this was the keynote of her address. She lifted the audience almost to its feet. Mrs. A. C. Bilbrew, and the very mention of her name assures you that the program was good, the rendition of her two poems of tribute "brought down the house." Miss Viola Dixon's solo in "The Old Flag has never touched the Ground." displayed her excellent voice. Refreshments were served as a fitting close to 'an enjoyable evening. The Board of Directors of the Old Folks Home at Abilla have put on a Victory Campaign to wipe out the indebtedness of $1500.0 on the new building. The drive has been started to have all loyal lotors of our old people to give at least one day's work so the debt may be cleared at once. At a recent meting the Directors employed Dr. W. R. Carter, Special Financial Secretary, to supervise the campaign. Dr. Carter has begun work interesting churches, clubs, lodges and individuals of both races in the campaign. While the Home is under the auspices and maintenance of the Western Baptist Association, the denominational line is never drawn and all worthy old people are welcome to its comforts and benefits. Honor your father and mother by helping to provide a suitable home for the aged of our race. Any information will be cheerfully given. $1500.00 is needed at once. Give or send your donation now. He helps most, who helps quickest. MR. AND MRS. GEO. W. WARNER CELEBRATE 30TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY Last Thursday at noon, in answer to an informal invitation several friends gathered at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. George W. Warner at E. 52nd St., where they were elaborately entertained with a turkey dinner. The event marked the 30th milestone in the matrimonial journey of Mr. and Mrs. Warner. The guests present were: Mrs. E. M. Baker; Mrs. Mamie Jones; Mrs. Jannie Williams; Mrs. J. H. Green; Mrs. J. H. Bate; Mrs. M. D. Batson and Mrs. J. B. Bass. The house was beautifully decorated in cup flowers, and ferns; and the turkey served was such as only a cook of thirty matrimonial summers could prepare. Mrs. Warner was in her characteristic cheerful mood. Each of the seven guests were devout Ruths; three of whom were present thirty years ago when Mr. and Mrs. Warner first joined hearts and hands. The occasion was one of joy for all present for people who are acquainted with Mr. and Mrs. Warner always deem it a pleasure to visit them in their home. BOLAND HAYES IN LOS ANGELES IN RECITAL Roland Hayes, recognized world's greatest tenor of the rare appeared in Song Recital at Blanchard Hall Monday evening under the auspices of Phillips Chapel and Wesley Chapel Churches. Upon this occasion Mr. Hayes AT THE STATE'S CAPITOL. The legislature is now on the home stretch with adjournment set for the 22nd inst. Both houses are speeding up in order that they may get thru the mass of business which must be attended to in this length of time. Commencing this week, night sessions will be in vogue in the Assembly. The feature of the past week was the passing of the Harris Bill which is known as a bill for the enforcement of the prohibitory liquor law. Several other measures of vast importance have had a hearing before both bodies of the legislature. On last Monday evening Senator James Pheslan addressed the legislature, standing room was at a premium on this occasion. Assemblyman F. M. Roberts succeeded in getting several of his local bills through the Assembly this week and also amendments of his in on other bills, the principal bill which he sponsored was the bill on vital statistics which passed last Saturday. During this week his bill for equal accommodations will be reported to the floor of the Assembly and stands excellent show of passing. Officers of The Two Bodies. Chief Clerk of the Senator Jas. A. Beek is one of the most popular and efficient officials who has ever held down this very important position and if left to a vote of the Senators and attaches of the Senate he would get any position to which he might aspire. Mr. Beek is from Pasadena and is indeed wide awake and of a striking personality, broad guaged and withal the right man in the right place. B. O. Boothby of Los Angeles is the Chief Clerk in the Assembly. Mr. Boothby also is rated 100 per cent efficient in the responsible position He is thoroughly democratic and stands high with all who know him as a courteous, obliging and high-class official. Sergeant-at-Arms W. J. Leflar is the prince of men and stands in the front ranks as one of the most popular officials in the State; if Leflar ever aspires for any State position he will have a host of boosters all over the State pulling and working for him to win. Assistant Minutes Clerk Arthur A. Ohinimus is still on the job with that smile that won't wear off. Keep your eyes on him he is a coming man. Assemblyman C. W. Goetting of San Francisco elected by a majority of nearly 10000 from the 28th District in San Francisco, scored a big win this week when his bill regulating employment agencies was passed. Goetting is a hustler and a coming man. Watch him climb. George C. Boswell, Asst. Sergeant-at-Arms has made an enviable record; a right hand man to W. J. Leflar and made many friends. Doctor Whiteside, the old war horse says little and saws wood. He is now rearing at the bits as he sniffs afar the coming election in Los Angeles. The lawyers of the Assembly fought valiantly for the passage of the Lindley Bill, setting a higher standard for admission to the Bar and for another fat commission; so after all in the business of creating a Commission it simply makes a big difference whose ox is gored. On Saturday the 5th the newspaper men will meet in this city for the purpose of organizing a Press Association for the benefit of the Press and to take up matters of general interest to the race.

CHURCH War Department, Office of The Secretary To The Commanding Officer Air Service Flying School, March Field. Riverside, Cal., March 27, 1919. The Reverend J. Logan Craw, 1466 Griffith Avenue. Los Angeles, Cal. My dear Reverend Craw: It was a visit and also an opportunity to hear your splendid sermon of last Sunday I shall long remember. The most beautiful interpretation of your text through your sermon, and assisted in such a realistic and paraphrastic manner by your choir, leaves an impression upon one not readily forgotten. When I was in Hampton Institute, Hampton, Virginia, I made it a practice to take down sermons, talks, addresses, etcetera, with a view of combining them some day into book-form, and I am yet collecting this material from time to time. It would be much appreciated and welcome if it be possible for me to number that one of Sunday among those I have already collected. Another noticeable feature of the service, and an equally admiring one, was the pleasant response given to your request for Easter Contribution, which only goes to show the very warm regard which your members have for your efforts and for yourself. It is not known at the present time how long I shall be in California; but, should I be here at that time, it is my desire to contribute something. And it will always be with pleasure that I shall look upon my visit to your church of last Sunday and any subsequent ones that I might have the opportunity to attend. Anticipating the pleasure of meeting you in the future, and again attending your services, I wish to remain. Cordially and sincerely yours, CHAS M. TUCKER, THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT.

A brilliant affair, socially as well as interesting was the marriage of Miss Maxine Thomas to Leon Hefflin on March 26, 1919 at the Sojorunera Truth Home. Rev. J. Logan Craw was the officiating clergyman, while the bridal attendants were Miss Juanita Hefflin, sister of the groom, and Mr. Bertram Tucker. The bride was beautiful in her costume of shifton satin under georgite crepe. She carried choice white Carnations with streamers of satin ribbon and a maleen bow, with a veil of silk tule and orange blossoms. The bride's maid was charmingly dressed in a white lace gown over pink taffata, carrying delicate pink Carnations. Preceded the ceremony Miss Hazel Gottschalk rendered a beautiful piano solo—"Hearts and Flowers," following this Miss Mamie Lowe thrilled the audience with a Soprano Solo, entitled, "I Love You," accompanied by Miss Velma Wood and Mr. Johny Mitchell. Little Ernestine Jones played the Wedding March, and Master Samuel McAllister, the ring bearer, carried the ring in a white Lily. The home was beautifully decorated with pink and white Carnations and asparagus ferns. The entire wedding was planned by the bride's sister, Mrs. E. A. Joseph, save the arch which was planned by the groom. The bride received congratulations under this beautiful arch carrying out the color scheme of pink and white. After the ceremony a dainty wedding repeat was served; the table was banked with white Carnations and ferns. The entire bridal party was intelligent and select. Among the creole belles in New Orleans Miss Thomas was a favorite. She has been in this city two years, graduating from Polytechnic High School; and has made a host of friends. The young couple returned from a trip Sunday night. They will reside in Los Angeles as Mr. Hefflin is working at his trade in the cabinet business in this city. A CENTRAL AVENUE TRAGEDY.

For a time Central Avenue, between 9th and 12th was shilling with excitement. Up to the present time Jim Cameron, the murderer is said to be still running aloft. BIRCH ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH F. C. Cothran, Pastor. Last Lord's Day was a good day for us at Birch St. Christian Church. At 11:00 o'clock A. M., the pastor called our attention to the occasion when Christ taught His disciples the lesson of humility and service. His text was: Ye called me Master and Lord, and ye say well, for I am, if then your Lord and Master have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet." From this lesson he showed that true greatness consists in service. It was a rare treat to Birch St. Church, when at 8:00 p. m., Madam. A. C. Richardson, Mistress of ceremony, in well chosen words and in her very pleasing manner, present-First Lieutenant G. W.

Then he told in a pathetic and explicit manner the story of the war as he saw it, and the bravery of "Our Boys," and how they excelled all others in the trenches and upon the firing line. He also had many war impliments which he passed to the audience for inspection. Lieutenant Stoyall, M. D., who sat with Lieutenant Jackson upon the platform, was also presented by Madam A. C.

On Sunday night, April 6th, Mrs. Carthright, an able lawyer, will be with us and address us on the subject of "Some needed reforms in our public institutions." Mrs. Carthright is a well informed and an able speaker. The Choir will also render some special numbers. We also plan to begin our Stereoicon singing again on this night.

Our usual attendance at Sunday School was somewhat reduced owing to the change of time, but the Lesson and also the after remarks thereon gave us great encouragement and help. The world of the Lord at the 11 o'clock service was with the demonstration of the Holy Spirit, and could not be gain sayed. The selections, and the hymns by the Choir were all in harmony with the word of truth. The Young People had a splendid session at 6:30 p.m. At night the Junior Missionary Society had charge and a most delightful program was carried out. All taking part won the praise of those who were silent listeners. Great encouragement was given the Young People in after addresses by Mrs. Spear-Bass and the pastor. We take occasion to express deep sympathy with Deaconess Mays, in the passing of Mr. Mays on Tuesday morning of this week. God comfort our sister, and also the two devoted daughters of the deceased brother.

In the evening he delivered another edifying message on the topic, "The Endurance of the Name of Jesus." Two accessions to the membership were recorded. The music by the Choir was especially effective. Soul-stirring solos were rendered by Bro. Emanuel Hall and Prof. Johnson also a beautiful duet by Misses Flora Washington and Blanche Webb.

Sunday found the Home Mission Sisters at their post. A well arranged program was rendered. Pastor Holt had been ill for the past week but was able to hold his audience; sometimes in laughter and then in tears. Text: "She has done what she could." The pastor did not leave a stone unturned. All who heard him wondered at the marvelous effect of this powerful sermon. One happy soul came to "our company." Al services were well attended. Pastor Holt preached for the W. H. and F. M. at Furlong Tract at 3 m. and filled our pulpit again at night. The Willing Workers Club headed by Sister Simpson and Boon served dinner in the dining hall. Brother Hammock, the ever ready, as usual, played well his part. Rev. F. H. Davis after holding a brief service at his church, came in just in time to receive a hearty welcome and impart some of those witty sayings characteristic of a fearless preacher. With him were many of his congregation. The evening closed with joy and gladness. The offering for the day, $51.60. All are invited to attend the Anniversary gragrom which will begin Tuesday night, April 8th to Sunday night April 13th. An elaborate program has been arranged and you have but to come and enjoy an entertainment worth while. The "Simpsonian Orchestra" will be on in evidence each night with entire change of program. Come to St. Paul when you feel to appreciate a hearty welcome and shout when happy. TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH—Normandie and Jefferson Rev. Archie J. Williams, Pastor We are looking for a great time next Sunday all day. The Pleasant Hill Baptist Church with its pastor, Rev. W. H. Roxler and the Corner Stone Baptist Church with its pastor, Rev. A.

ADVERTISING RATES 50c per inch GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF RAILROADS A BIG FROST The longer the government controls the railroads the more nauseating and obnoxious the idea of government ownership becomes, and the people even now are longing and clamoring for a return of the roads to their owners. Government control is one big frost; it might have been justified during the war, but with the war over, there is absolutely no justification for the inferior service at an excessive rate; every change of the moon we have an increased freight and passenger schedule. And if it keeps up the gait that they are going now, the government itself will be manufacturing Bolsheviks at a lively clip; under private ownership the poor common every-day citizen could at least make a trip home to visit relatives and friends, but not so under your Uncle Sam; to do business with him you must qualify in class A in the financial world. Even the poor newspaper publisher is hard hit under private ownership; he could exchange advertising for transportation which would enable him to visit his clientage occasionally, but not so now; we once had an exalted opinion of Government Ownership of the Railroads but since the big frost which is in vogue at the present time, that dream his disappeared like the baseless fabric of a vision, and left not a rack behind. BETTER HAVE NO LEGISLATION AT ALL. The amendment bill in the State Senate known as the Anderson Bill and sponsored by the Business League of Oakland in its origin, in its present state is unrecognizable to its proponents and is indeed obnoxious in the extreme and no legislation at all would in our opinion be preferred to this Amendment Bill. The very essence of the act has been extracted; its fundamental was to prohibit pictures which tend to incite race prejudice, and with the bill shorn of this feature, as far as its proponents are concerned could not possibly be of any benefit to anybody. The only thing the bill as amended prohibits is the showing of any lynching, burning or mobs. Now, as a matter of fact, we are of the opinion that pitiless publicity of these henious crimes is one of the very best levers to mould a sentiment to stop them. The scenes of brutality pictured is Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin, set the spark which rapidly spread throughout this country for the ultimate abolition of slavery. So, in the face of these facts the enactment of the law would be a detriment instead of a benefit. MUST NOT FORGET. In the hurly hurly of vice crucading and cleaning out the choosies, let us not forget that even though we are forming our central organizations so things, that the greatest thing that we can do is produce something, so let this idea of production be the predominating one of our crusaders for better conditions; get in the game for big things, become producers—if not from the soil, in the trades, in financial organizations—We have succeeded well in the lesser things along the line of organized effort; now let us see what we can do with the things that count. We have have some practical demonstrations which we can point to with pride, there are others in the making. Now, let's produce more, and more; get right in the game and keep in the game until we have really demonstrated that we are real PRODUCERS. SGT. W. W. GLENN'S CASE SGT. W. W. GLENN'S CASE The case of Police Sergeant W. W. Glenn which was called before the Police Commission last Wednesday morning lasted all day Wednesday, Thursday, and is to be completed Friday in an evening session. From the evidence brought thus far Glenn is a victim of intrigue, and the Police Commission must show its fairness in this case or the colored voters of Los Angeles are going to ask the reason why. And now that we have at last organized a real get-to-gether Federation of our various organizations; every mother's son should get behind it and help secure some real and lasting results for the people of this section. At Sacramento today the representatives of the Bona Fide Negro Press of this State is in session and forming an organization for mutual helpfulness; this is indeed a good omen and means much for racial progress in this section of our country, because when you can get the moulders of sentiment together for the common good, the masses of the people cannot help but reap a real and genuine benefit threfrom. Our people in California should be proud of the part they played in helping to win the war, feeling so, they should render every possible assistance to the War Historians who have been appointed in the various sections of our State that a creditable record may be made of the activities of the race which is to be published by the State. S: P. Dones frankly asked the public in our last issue whether or not he was their choice for the Councilmatic race at this time now. If the people are in dead earnest they should be frank in their answer. However silence is consent so the Eagle says, "Run Dones. Run." Atty. E. Burton Ceruti, who is representing W. W. Glenn before the Police Commission this week, by his cool-headedness and thorough acquaintance with the case has demonstrated to the City Attorney that he has no superiors in the profession of law. After hob nobbing with Statesmen for 60 days or more the editor is looking homeward and ere many days will be on the job, and getting a line on things from the home plate; "We'll hew to the line, let the chips fall where they may." It seems as though Srgt. Henry Johnson could stay just as many Germans off as possible, but when he proceeded to tell things out of school which he witnessed he was carrying the thing too far and they wanted to put him in jail. It is with no small degree of sadness that we at this time announce to his many friends in this city and section of the country that the case of Dr. Bunday of the East St. Louis Riot has been decided against him. While District Atty. Woolwine is digging in; we want him to go good and deep; especially as to the Chinese Lottery sharks and get the paymasters for the iniquitous fraud which has been pauperizing so many families in this city. It is patent to any man at this time in the face of passing events, that crooked money is not lasting, and after all the only way to travel life's journey is the honest way. One thing certain and sure in the present grand jury investigation, they all look alike to the intrepid, District Attorney. Our readers who can recall the Eagle's expose some weeks back will give us credit for making a good guess, even though we laid no claims for being a prophet. When the question of law and order and common decency is at stake; put us down unqualifiedly and unreservedly on the side of law and order. voice was in excellent trim to which the great audience that greeted him testified in spontaneous applause. His French and Italian renditions, like his English rang clear in every note. Mr. Hayes' breathing is almost perfect, while his enunciation and pronunciation are perfect. Even though Mr. Hayes has appeared before Los Angeles' audiences before his voice upon this occasion along with his very pleasing personality was better than ever-before, and Revs. Shaw and Anderson deserve credit for having given Los Angeles such a treat. TRNIS CHATTER (Wm. M. Watson.) Four months from today several strange looking athletes (to the natives) from California will be craning their necks and asking many questions about those wonderful sky snrapers, the noisy elevated railroads, the subways, the huge bridges which span the East River and many other interesting things of world fame around Gotham. "Gee! Some people are born lucky!" All that is needed now is a little more 'pep' in the players-to-New York drive and the money will be forth coming. Hurry clubs and members, get your dates set for publication, for the numerous functions to be held within the next three months, your time is gorwing short. Also there are about four young ladies and six young men who have a fighting chance to qualify for the trip East, but unfortunately they are neglecting their training, and remember, the Western Federation of Tennis Clubs' aim is to send tennis players, and not sight-seers only, to New York; so get busy—$250, each—wow! The Greek name of the new club of the Westside is Omega, or last and is correct and very appropriate; here is to prosperous future. Looming up on the horizon are two Manual Arts High School athletes—Charles Rhone and Wendell Gladden,—better watch these birds, you who think your trip East is cinched. And Lottie Bolds—but she scorns publicity. We may not see Mr. Sinsabough in action again this season, but remember his words: "Always play the second service ball safe." Those in training should play at least one hard fast set or its equivalent each day; in practice games never play for points, (let your opponent do so if he likes) play for speed and judgment of distance and learn to place each ball; drive whenever possible; better too high than too low, your opponent may foul a high one too swift to handle, but the old net will always beat you. Remember the mens and ladies' doubles tourney at the Alpha Courts given by the Federation beginning Sunday morning April 13th. Entry fee, is one 60c ball; boost the game by entering these tournaments—"boost and hang up your hammer." CHURCH NEWS (Continued from page 2) All of our services last Sunday were well attended. The Trinity Baptist Church Choir furnished the music for both services. We hope to have a great Choir on the Westside before long. On the 4th Sunday of this month all the Baptist Churches of Los Angeles will worship with us at 3 o'clock. All welcome. BETHEL CHURCH OF CHRIST (HOLINESS) Hooper Ave. and East Adams 8t. Elder Wm. A.

Mays, one of Los Angeles' highly respected citizens was held Friday afternoon at the Peoples Independent Church, 18th and Paloma Sts. Mr. Mays has been a resident of Los Angeles for some years, coming to our city from Atlanta, Ga., and since his stay in Los Angeles he has won to himself many friends, always, and everywhere, representing a citizen of the highest type. He lived at the time of his death with his good wife, Mrs. Laura P. Mays, 1123 East 33rd St., he also leaves two daughters, Mrs. Pearl Hall, 1240 Long Beach Ave., Los Angeles; and Mrs. Alice Glvins of Santa Barbara; both of whom are industrious women, and had a deep love for father. The services were conducted by the Rev. N. P. Greggs, assisted by Rev. H. D. Prowd, and the very excellent and completely arranged funeral was under the direction of Connor Johnson and Company, who met expectation of their many Beginning April 1, 1919, Mme. C. J. Walker begs to announce that she will assume the entire control of the business at Lelia College and Walker Hair Parlor, hitherto under the management of her daughter, Mrs. Lelia W. Robinson. This has become necessary owing to the fact that Mrs. Robinson has entered the travelling field in the interest of the Mme. C. J. Walker Manufacturing Co., and is at present making an extended tour which will include the more important South American countries and islands of the West Indies. In as much as the fame of the Mme. C. J. Walker preparations have penetrated these southern islands and the demand for goods is increasing daily there, just as is the case all over the U. S. A., Mme. Walker has been compelled to enlarge her factory and add machinery which will make it possible to treble the present output, thereby meeting more satisfactorily the great and ever increasing demand. War conditions have been a large handicap to all business enterprises with exception of those directly interested in the making of munitions. And particularly has this been true of the Mme. C. J. Walker Co. So many of the essential products have been difficult or impossible to obtain. Fortunately with the close of the war, these conditions have become so vastly improved that Mme. Walker expects after the first of April to carry a complete stock at all times which will more than meet the requirements of her many agents, in and about N. Y. City. A meeting of the agents is called at the Music School Settlement for Wednesday evening April 9th, at eight o'clock, at which time Mr. F. B. Ransom, attorney and business manager of the Mme. C. J. Walker Manufacturing Co., will explain more fully, matters of immense importance to all agents. "SAFETY FIRST" is the slogan these days. Are you safe without FIRE INSURANCE?

We are looking forward to this; we are expecting it to surely come. Now, let me whisper a word of advice to our race—let us as a race prepare ourselves to enter into these places which we are so earnestly striving to have opened to us, with credit to the race. Let us prepare ourselves to go into the Restaurant into the Ice Cream Parlors and any other public place that is open to the public—some may say that we know how. It is one thing to know and another thing To Do. So let us practice and put into execution things that we as a race will do out in public, that it is needless to mention them here, but as a warning, let us from this day on put on our very best behavior and act as intelligently as possible at all times and in all places. We have in San Diego some very intelligent people, both men and women, but my dear friends, it is a puzzle to me why it is that the intelligent cannot come together, work together, and reason out the problems of the race together. Learn to recognize intelligence wherever you see it, but instead of this whenever an intelligent man or woman fathoms out something that will be beneficial to the race, there is always another so-called intelligent crowd standing off ready to crush the proposition, because certain ones were not the founders. Now, this standing apart, and working against one another should not be. You surely cannot rise in intelligence or anything else by trying to keep someone else down; for you will have to stay down there yourself while you are trying to keep them down, saying mean and ridiculous things about each other. When you talk, talk on some subject that is worthy of the thought and attention of a human being. The old saying that silence is often Golden, is never so true and appropriate as when by breaking silence people gossip about their neighbors and friends. Most people talk altogether too much; the world would be better off if they would hold their tongues. A large part of the mischief that afflicts society and different organizations is thoughtless tailing, and gossip, saying things about one another where there is no foundation at all. And another thing we are guilty of, if one of our race should present something that seems to be a worthy cause, we are ready to search up the character of the individual, from the cradle to the present date; and if you have known the party for any length of time or number of years "that" settles anything imaginable about them as you have known them all their lives. Now in conclusion you that are intelligent show it in an intelligent way, and try to get together, and work together for the greatest good of our race—C. E.

President Johnson appointed an election committee to look after one of the interesting things that came out of this meeting happened when P. P.

There were members present from Redlands and Riverside. Wm. Sweet in a very pleasing way told of the history of the Order. and Mrs. Mattie Sweet in her charming manner told of the workings of the Household of Ruth. One of the features of the program was the musical number rendered by the C. A. Beal family Orchestra. John Shipp was Master of Ceremonies and the turn out made quite an impression on the public: A beautiful day and a pleasing audience greeted us Sunday morning. At the evening service every seat was taken and Rev. J. F. C. Taylor of Pasadena spoke to the congregation from the subject "Whole-heartedness." The collection was gold and was for the benefit of Ingham-Jones Club No. 1. The Choir sang at the evening service as we have never heard them sing before. When the altar call was made one young man came forward and joined. We were favored with the presence of three members of that famous 92d Division all day Sunday—Srgt. Roland Smith who gave us a glimpse of France, when speaking in the morning service; Corp. Walter Norwood and Private Elwood Whiteside. All the stars on our service flag remain blue. We are glad to report none of the membership sick this week. The Ingham-Jones Club had a very successful social at the home of B. W. Ingham Tuesday night.

Unexpected to the pastor and his wife, the parsonage was visited by members of the church, headed by the Sisters of the Pulpit Aid Society, last Tuesday night. They deposited enough eatables on the table to last the pastor and family for a long season. The pastor and wife are very prescriptive of these kind acts bestowed upon them by the members of the church. This frequently occurs at the parsonage. There is no chance for the pastor and family to be in need. Sunday evening April 6th Corp. Walter Norwood will give us an evening's entertainment of his overseas life. New Hope Baptist Church 7th and Harris Sts. G. W. Reed, Minister New Hope Baptist Church was the scene of three fine meetings last Sunday. Rev. L. H. Jackson preached at the morning service, for the W. H. and F. M. Society, as the day was given over entirely to that organization. The sermon of Rev. Jackson was very inspiring and helpful. The afternoon meeting was given over to the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, at which time it celebrated "Peter Ogden Day." A splendid program was rendered. Rev. S. H. Goodwin and Mrs. Mattie Sweet of Riverside were over and took prominent parts on the program. The evening service was devoted exclusively to a religious-literary program, Mrs. G. W. Reed, Mrs. R. C. Anderson, Mrs. M. E. Andrews, Mrs. W. S. Johnson and Eugene Anderson participating. Each of them read timely papers on the general subject, "The Church, a Field for Service." Each paper on a sub-subject, dealing with the various auxiliaries of the church as one of the units in this field of service. The singing by the Choir, under the leadership of Mrs. Richard Belsinger, comes in for special mention, for it was indeed splendid. Dr. Ruth J.

This is an all absorbing question at this time, the most epochal in all history, for it is the time for the remak- LLI COMPANY OCOA, MUSTARD North Point & Larkin Sts. San Francisco LORENZIN 3 LORENZINI CALIFORNIA Brother ed 1872 AND ARMY STREET Fisco, Cal. Manufacturer of ing of the Governments of the world, the time when all men should be considered as having been created as equal, and not the monopolizing of all that is better and best by a chosen few, chosen, not by God, but by their selfish selves. All nations are now striving for one common end, higher ideals in all directions, not some men up, and others held down, crushed by the despicable heel of prejudice. The oppressed races want a chance, a fighting man's chance, while the opportunities are good, and while they are in the flower of their youth. They do not want to go along forever, timidity choking at the very vitals of their existence. Youth, the best time to grapple with the conditions of life, the only time that humanity is able to do and dare. True, many have attained the Zenith of their Glory in their advancing years, but others of us hesitate at living on borrowed time, and if the call is not answered before old age falls upon us, we are oftimes forced into a lax spirit, that no power on earth can re-awaken. no power on earth can reawaken. Think of it, creatures, created by the same God, breathing the same air, living on the same planet, forced by man, an inferior power, to subservience, humiliation, and in Ameirca, Jinn Crowism! When will it ever be that man of white extraction will surrender himself to the Bar of Justice and acknowledge his gross wrongs? When will the time present itself that the Laws of God will be recognized by the world at large, and divide the earth equally in all respects? In discussing political equality of all nations with a recent returned hero from France, he told me: "The only way for the tide of conditions to turn will be for the present generation of Caucasians to die, all of them at once, that none will remain to impart to another generation that would spring forth, the hatred that was borne by their predecessors." A pretty state of affairs. How will it ever be settled? What will the future bring forth from this conglomerated state of affairs? Wactful waiting, now, henceforth and forever, judging from the present aspect of things, no doubt. But, let the white man be subjected to one half of the tortures he inflicts upon others, and the outcry is deafening. The very idea of anyone paying them back in their own coin is outlandish. They fume, they rage, they tear, they哭. It is unbelievable that they should even be considered in the clitches of the tyrant. How often has a negro been lynched for the crimes of a white man who was disguised by lamp black? And then we read how the apaches of Paris have committed terrible outrages disguised in the uniform of an American soldier, a white soldier, for the apaches have white faces, that is those who committed the crimes. How often has a Negro home been bombed, lives sacrificed, victims of race prejudice, simply because a black man had striven to improve his living conditions in a large Eastern City? And then we read of a beautiful white woman, having been killed by the explosion of a bomb in her mansion, the innocent victim of some secret organization,—right here in sunny California. Is the law that everything will equalize itself being manifested in these contrasts? Is it wicked to concentrate on that thought? Is it being proven that the law of compensation is meted out to all? Does our white brother realize that what goes over the devil's back must come under his belly? Is turn about always fair play? MARGUERITE BENSTON-EVANS OAKLAND NEWS (Continued from page 3) last Friday night was a succes super excellent. The night was clear and the weather indeed propitious, and all nature seemed prepared to receive Mr. Hayes. A hall less capacious than the Oakland Civic Auditorium would have been too small, for the music lovers of San Francisco as well as of Oakland, of both races, turned out en masse to hear the wonderful artist about whom Mr. Danforth, music critic of the Oakland Tribune spoke with such commendable terms the evening before. Mr. Hayes was not at all new to most of his hearers and indeed not new to the music critics of this section of the country. His appearance on the stage was greeted with uproarious applause.

The boys had the people laughing, crying and shouting. At the Ist. A. M. E. Church the ey- ening service was turned over entire- ly to the boys when they again highly entertained a large and appreciative audience. Atty.

W. M. A. had charge of the services both morning and evening. The pastor preached at the morning service and a most excellent sermon was heard by the large audience present. The subject from which he spoke was |cone Thing Have I Desired of The liora.” He brought out the necessity of having a real objective, a definite desire, an ideal, an object; und strive to reach that object, seek after it until it is attained, as David did. He also paid some very high compliments to womanhood. The Y. W. M. A. assisted by the Choir ren- dered splendid music. | in the aft&noon at 3:00 o'clock [ime soldier bof's with their mothers were. guests qf honor and sat on the Rostrom. An exceedingly large aud- ince completely filled the main audi- torium and thégsunday School room Jahd to be utilid@y and they listened \to a splendid pr&gram. The ¥. W. |M. assisted by the Choir and visit- jing singers from the Ist. A. M. E. ‘Church sung patriotic and spiritual | songs and the following soldier boys |made short talks which were very much appreciated by all; they were cheered to the echo, and many fervent Amens greeted them from time to time: Hal Pascal Pearson, Sgt. W. H. Miller, Corp. John H. Harris and Sgt. Raoul T. Reynolds. Each boy | was accompanied by his mother—Hal ‘Penelope Prince; Corp. John Harris with his mother, Mrs. Strickland; Sgt. W. He Millier with his mother, Mrs. Georgia Miller and Sgt. Raoul T, Reynolds with his mother, Mrs. M. E, Reynolds. Anyone looking at the group on the Rostrom could easily |anverciate the sacrifice that each had made in sending their boy to fight in the greatest war the world has ever known, and how thankful they all were that all were back home again safe and sound, a sure and convine- ing proof that God does answer pray- er. The Booker T. Boys sang “Hur- rah for the Boys-in-Kahki,” and re- ceived splendid applause and then they sang, ‘Mother Here’s Your Boy,” and were tremendously ap- plauded” Immediately:after this song Mrs. J. H. Harrison, the President, presented each mother with a boquet of White Carnations, including Sis- ter I. H. Ford, who is the mother of lthe ¥. W. M. A., having organized the“society a number of years ago. ‘This part of the ceremony was very touching and very beautiful. Madame Corine B. Hicks sang very sweetly and effectively, “He Redeemed Me.” Atty. Thomas Pearson of Chicago |who accompanied his nephew, Hal |Paseal Pearson who was discharged from the Army at Camp Grant, com- jing to Pasadena to visit his sister, ‘Mrs. Penelope Prince, was introduc- ed and made one of the most pleas- jing addresses thet it has been our good fortune to hear for a long time. face and voice and seems at home on "the Rostrom. We hope to hear him | again before he returns to Chicago. ‘At 7:30 p. m. with ¥. W.M. A. assisted by the Choir rendering beau: tiful selections, Sister I.| H. Ford de- livered a very touching and interest- ing message to a large and apprecia- tive congregation closing a real glori- lee day. The Auxiliary realized the neat sum of $35.00 for the day. | Mrs. Mahala Harris, the wife of ‘Deacon Harris departed this life on Wednesday of last week after a long {iness, and was buried on Saturday _ of last week in Mountain View Ceme- tary. The funeral was held at Friendship Baptist Church of which she was a faithful member, with the W. H. and F. M. Society in charge. |The services were very impressive. ‘The Choir rendered appropriate se- lections, Mrs. Wm. Lawson sang “His ! eye Is on the Sparrow,” very feeling- ly, and Bro. Wm. Reynolds sang “Does Jesus Care?”. The Rev. W. H. Tillman preached the sermon., The jflorat offerings were very ‘profuse and very beautiful. “The pastor paid some beautiful tributes to.the decess- “ed; of her splendid character and Christian quefifications; her beauti- ful unassuming life. if Bea ew Sars WAHL) een tee ea 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. ‘ 952-54 Central Avenue Phone Pico 1698 Mme.

My dear Mrs. Bass: | I am sure you will consider the following “good news” and publish same in this week's issue. AT LAST WE ARE MAKING A START UPWARD. | The Tempory Unfty and Progress ‘Federation, as reported previously in |this publication, was organized Feb- ruary 22, 1919, and March 22, wit- jnessed the permanent organization of ‘this important society, which, if glv- en the suport of race organizations, will mean the revluioe cise We ex- isting conditions, affecting our peo- ple. No organization having the wel- fare of the race at heart, and cogniz- ant of the real conditions and prob- lems confronting us, can afford to Fitnhold their moral support and co- operation from this organization, whose lofty aims are, the uplift, bet- terment and developing of our few opportunities and conditions. Ev- ery negro possessing race pride and love, must feel ashamed of the posi- tion occupied by our people in every walk of human endeavor, and this ‘movement, launched after more than 8 year’s labor,.on the part of a few real race men, should be encouraged by all. _ We must build the road over which our children must travel; we must ‘uequire economic, commercial and {n- dustrial independence; we must be ‘solidly united if we wish to, accom- plish those things which mean to any ‘people, power and influence. And no- thing but power and Influence will de- mand and receive the respect of oth- ers. ‘The following officers were clect- ed by acclamation: Pres, J. T. Norris, representing the Peoples Forum; Vice-Pres., Mrs. Shores, representing Hill Temple No. 1; Secy., Capt. T. N. McKinney, rep- resenting the People’s Forum; Asst. Secy., Mrs. A. A.
