THIS COMMUNITY SHOULD BE PROUD OF ITS YOUNG MEN WHO ARE MAKING THEIR WAY TO THE FRONT
"Some men are born great; some achieve greatness; and some have greatness thrust upon them."
Of these three classes of greatness public opinion will readily agree that the man who achieves greatness is the greatest of the three grades of greatness for in achieving greatness or success some part if not all of his flight upward has been fraught with hardships.
Hence it gives the watchful Eagle pleasure to present to her reading public, Mr. Journee White, who stands out before the public a clean cut character, making his way step by step to the top of the ladder of success.
Mr. White comes from one of New Orleans's best families. He came to California fourteen years ago, residing at times in different cities of the State, but whenever he has been he has always attracted the best, in turn was attracted by the best in every community. His business career has been marked by overwhelming success.
In the early part of 1916 Mr. White was profitably engaged in Real Estate in this city, but when Uncle Sam called he closed books, went into the training camps, and according to former records went on to the top, and comes back to us at this time from the blood-washed battle fields of France wrapped in glory, and wearing the stripes of Lieutenant. Mr. White is one of the heaviest stockholders in the Democracy Film Co., and promoter of the Buffalo Realty Company. Just before leaving for France, Mr. White after turning his optics at close range on society's best in Los Angeles, picked from among the

My Dear Mrs. Bass:
For the last time
during this stay I hope, I am in Paris.
My regiment is on the way to a base
port where I hope to join them in a
few days.
Paris is fast regaining its pre-war
stride. life beats to the full, and enthiasm is checked only by the speculation on Germany's attitude toward the Peace treaty. There is nothing for Germany to do but sign, it is simply the sincere hope of a war tired people for immediate release from any and all realities.
I looked with eyes of wonder yesterday at the great picture painted of all who took part in this great war, the most wonderful piece of art I have yet seen. Belgium and Colonies Italy. France, Montenegro, England, America and all other Allies were there, but my eyes filled with tears as I turned to my companion and said; There is something lacking in the space allotted America, with the characteristic understanding of the French he silently led me away.
Now as I feel the current in motion and realize the strength of great desire which finds a common ground on which to rest, I wonder, yes I wonder. The world must not be tampered with new. Peace, sweet Peace, is the echo of all hearts. Peace to be lasting must be just. When will the states

man realize that there is a God who if need be will right things by the power of his might?
The day is clear and bright. The Heavens seemingly realize the portentiousness of the hour and favor us with smiles which are bound to cheer. May we bask in this precious Sunlight until we are determined to see the light of love, justice, and understanding penetrate all nooks and corners. Sad to say, such is not true now. If we fall to wake up now and respond with the fullness demanded a dark day is ahead.
I was about to close when a French lad came in and began to talk. I told him of our part in the war; how we fought with the French side by side in the region of bounzy Champagne. Stirred by memories he held dear, he grasped my hand kissing it. tenderly saying" my brother was there with you, and told me of the black soldiers wonderful courage. My sincere respect and admiration are yours. May the blessings of Peace give you much joy.
My pen now is trembling. A wave of appreciation has touched the nerve center. After all the day brings me a message of hope. Let us do our work hopefully, the planting of such seeds will some day bring a bountiful harvest.
With Sincere Wishes,
B. C. ROBESON

THE BAPTIST YOUNG PEOPLE'S CHAUTAUQUA
The Baptist Young Peoples' Chautauqua Committee Met Last Thursday And Completed Plans For The Great Chautauqua To Be Held In Riverside July 1st to 10th.
The Baptist Young Peoples' Chautauqua Committee and the advisory committee met at the Pleasant Hill Baptist Church of Los Angeles, last Thursday evening and completed plans for the coming great Chautauqua meeting, which is to be held in Evan's Athletic Park, of Riverside, July 1st to 10th.
Rev. G. W. Reed, Chairman of the Committee, reported that indications pointed to there being a likelyhood of more than a thousand people attending the GREAT MEETING. He says that letters are pouring into his office everyone anxiously inquiring about accommodation and rates. Three secretaries are kept busy answering inquiries and shaping the details for the great meeting.
The General Committee wishes to say to those desiring to know about the accommodations, that tents and cots are being provided at the price of $4.50 for ten days and $3.00 for five days, fifty cents for a single night. A restaurant will be on the ground to furnish meals, from ten cents up, also a refreshment stand, where soft drinks and ice cream may be bought.
The educational features of the Chatauqua, will be conducted thru a school of methods, with expert instructors in young peoples work. The contemplated principal speakers are Dr. E. C. Morris, Dr. W. T. Vernon Ex Register of the U. S. Treasury, Dr. 1/2. D. Carter of Seattle, together with several noted and distinguished men and women of our own California. For the amusement of the young and for that matter all who would desire to engage in them, there will be basket ball, Lawn Tennis, swimming, croquet and jumping contests. This part of the program is in the hands of Hilbert Rozier, the well known gameologist."
There will be a choir of one hundred voices under the leadership of Capt. Reynolds, the noted choir-master of the Friendship Baptist church of Pasadena. Mile. Minnie Albritton is to be the leading soloist. Together with Mile. Albritton, will be a long list of high class vocal talent. With this great program, we can safely say that there will be something doing worth while at the Chataqua. The committee is expecting support from every Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. in Southern California, up to this date we have nearly every one of them. Those who are expecting to take a vacation cannot find a better place to spend it. Mrs.

REV. J. D. GOR
DR. J. D. ORDON RESIGNS PASTORATE OF TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH
Before the appointed hour for the evening service, on last Sunday the Tabernacle Baptist Church was capacity filled, and other persons who did not succeed in entering craned their necks from the vestibule and sidewalk in front of the Church, anxious, as it were, to catch one little sound.
It had been quietly rumored that the Dr. would preach his farewell sermon Sunday evening and even though there was nothing authentic about the rumor, it went like wild fire and enthusiasm was rampant in its wake, to the end that persons who failed to get into the building pushed and squeezed to even get sight of Dr. Gordon, who did not reach the church until 8:30 o'clock.
The congregation was highly entertained with a song by the Acme Club before the evening discourse was begun.
Dr. Gordon after being formally introduced by the Rev. Davis used as his text—"I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course."
After laying carefully the foundation for a theme that was destined to awaken the spiritual being of his waiting congregation, this spiritual giant sailed forth not unlike the next k
plumed knight of ancient days. Very tactfully did he describe his fifteen year's experience as pastor of the Tabernacle Church, and without any supper effort on the part of the speaker, in a manful manly way he painted a picture that no doubt will never be erased from the minds of
GORDON
his hearers and in the painting of this picture one could not help but see that this man, not unlike Paul, the author of his text, too had fought a good fight and of his own accord had, decided to enter a new field of effort.
Fifteen years ago when Dr. Gordon came to Los Angeles Tabernacle was only a baby; today she is a grown up, and the high esteem in which Dr. Gordon is held was attested by the more than an hundred and fifty persons; some ill in body, while others were ill in mind; crowded about the altar for this man of God to lay his hands upon their head and breathe for them one last prayer before leaving; also many children were brought forward to be blessed.
Even though no time was given for testamony, many persons testified that after ten year's Bible study under Dr. Gordon they had been strengthened physically and spiritually.
Editor and Mrs. J. B. Bass along with many other of Dr. Gordon's ardent admirers were present at this last service, and according to his custom since the very beginning of her newspaper effort in Los Angeles, Dr. Gordon asked Mrs. Bass to say a word. However, being almost everwhelmed by the sad but enthusiastic service she could scarcely connect her thoughts, but said, that as a

woman attempting to do what some
men shrank from, that while some
discouraged, Dr. Gordon always
encouraged her in her every effort, and
thus she had every reason to look upon
him and to ever think of him as a
noble unselfish Christian gentleman.
More than a hundred letters were laid upon the table addressed to Dr. Gordon, and with this demonstration the greatest of its kind ever experienced by the author, amd. Gordon sobs and mourns, the great gathering loathsome wended its way in the street only to renew or enact the same scene Monday evening at the Santa Fe Station, where Dr. Gordon embarked for Chicago.
Dr. Gordon stated that he was not going to another church immediately.
The resigning of Dr. Gordon is not only regretted by the members of the Tabernacle Baptist Church and his many frinds, but by the community at large.
Juanita Patton appeared before Carl Bronson, the great musical critic of Los Angeles, the past week. Her tryout was a grand success. Mr. Bronson was greatly pleased and said that she had a wonderful naturally trained voice and commended highly her musical temperament, technique and interpretations. Mr. Bronson will attend the Recital.
The Patton children need no special introduction to the Los Angeles public, having appeared continually since the ages of 4 and 6, before many large audiences of both white and colored.
Malcolm Harvey Patton has the honor of being a 1919 graduate and also the Concert Master of the Second Violins of the Los Angeles High School Orchestra.
Remember that the celebrated Pau-pau-kee-wes of Hiawatha and Malcolm Patton are one and the same.
Miss Naida McCullough is to appear on the Patton program; she is noted for her artistic piano work. At one time Miss McCullough had the honor of accompanying a noted Russian Violinist. Mr. Gounnou Romandy. Miss McCullough is a June graduate from the Los Angeles State Normal School.
Miss Pearl Bratton is to assist on the Patton program. Miss Eratton is a member of the well known Bratton Orchestra, she is an ex-graduate of the Manual Arts High School and is now attending the Los Angeles State Normal School.
Miss Nadine Bratton is also to assist in the Patton Recital, she is a member of the Jefferson High School Orchestra. Miss Nadine has the honor of being a June graduate from Jefferson High School.

force into it which brought the house down in great applause. More and more each year the public is awakening to the great work being accomplished in the line of music by the Professor and his co-workers and are showing their appreciation by the support they are giving.

Mr. James Weldon Johnson, Field Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. spoke in our city Wednesday May 28th to a large crowd of colored people and gave much valuable information concerning the Association, and other interesting facts, which should have been heard by the white race as well; but they were conspicious by their absence, much to the disappointment of Mr. Johnson as well as some others.
Thursday evening Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Robinson, personal friends of Mr. James Weldon Johnson, honored him at their home with a huge reception to which some two hundred or more guests were bidden to meet the distinguished guest, who was the house guest of Mr. and Mrs. Robinson while in the city. The hours of 6 to 10 p. m. were given for the reception. The rooms were made beautiful with the abundance of flowers and foliage placed in vases, baskets and cut glass bowls. The chosen scheme was carried out in pink and white and pastel shades with beautiful sweet peas adorning every nook and corner. The young ladies were charming in their evening gowns and there were 6 of them attending to the punch and refreshments. They were under the supervision of Mrs. J. H. Walker and Mrs. George Dunlap, their station was about the dining room serving punch from a prettyly appointed buffet table. Ice Cream and Cake was an addition and the young ladies handled the vast number of callers admirably. Those acting were: Misses Minnie Crowly, Pauline Ray; Flora and Anita Page; Alice Logan; stationed at the front door were Mrs. Walter Dunlap and Miss Naomi Brown who received the guests, turned them over to the hostess who presented them to the honored guest and others in the reception line; Mr. and Mrs. T. D. Walker; and Mr. E. W. Robinson. After which Mrs. Geo. Frances and Mrs. J. W. Scott led them to the dining room to be cared for by those in charge.

THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN
JESSE LEWIS
Strong supporter of Mayor elect Snyder and who will doubtless receive the highest consideration at the hands of the incoming administration.
Men may come and men may go but for thorough appreciation and genuine faith in the sincerity of a man, there will be none who will measure up with Mr. Lewis who has been so faithful to the interest of his employer and friend Mayor elect M.P. Snyder.
Mr. Lewis has demonstrated the fact that there are members of the race who are always ready to do their bit and in the campaign just closed according to their ability no man has contributed more to the success of the same than Mr. Lewis.
When complimented for the same by the Eagle reporter Mr. Lewis said, "I feel that I have only done my duty as a citizen knowing Mr. Snyder as I do, of his sympathy for the man fartherest down, and his readiness at all times to give to every man or woman a square deal, it was my duty to do whatever I could to promote his cause, and I want to say right now that the Colored people will never have cause to regret giving him their support, for with him it is, "All men up and no man down."
"In placing him at the head of our city government we have done the thing worth while, which will be reflected in a business administration and the throttling of vice and immorality, and I am satisfied if there are those amongst us who have contributed their bit to bring about this result. Believes in Becoming Producers.
"I have always been strong for our people becoming producers that we may at all times be in a position to do our full part at all times for the betterment of all the conditions which surround us. By this I mean producers in every sense of the word, produce from the soil of the earth, from the trades, from the schools of industry to the utmost. The producer is the man who in days to come will be heard. Our people should grasp the opportunity at their door and at least measure up with the Orientals, who have up to date had a monopoly on certain sorts of products.
It is a pleasing reflection to know that there were those in the campaign just concluded who could give as well as receive, and it is a demonstration of the advantage of becoming producers along all the various lines of effort. As producers we can make situations in every walk of life for our boys and girls, who when they graduate from school can procure situations created by their own efforts rather than become broom wielders, shoe shiners or mop throwers. Therefore it would be right and proper for our people to organize for good, and in all matters politically and otherwise they will be able to accomplish the things worth while."
"The Eagle appreciates Mr. Lewis and can say that he was indeed a strong spoke in the wheel when it came to doing service in the campaign just closed. Numerous accomplishments with the object of helping out for Mr. Snyder were initiated and carried out by Mr. Lewis, with great success.

When I started to use the Massey Treatment I had given up. My hair was only 6 inches in the places of the longest growth. After having used the Treatment a year and a half my hair is beautiful and of the lengths 16 and 18 inches. The Treatment has proved to be what everyone that has used it says of it.
BARBARA WILLIAMS.

When I first started using the Massey Treatments my hair was so short that I had to cover my head with false hair. The little hair I had was colorless and stubborn. I have used the Massey Treatment for three years, my hair is now below my shoulders and can be dressed in any style. I shall never be without it on my dresser.
MRS. THOMAS,
Naomi St. Los Angeles, Cal.
Madam please send me a full Treatment. I stopped using it and tried another. The beautiful growth that my hair was taking on has been lost. Now I am coming back to you to continue your Treatments because they have proven to be the best of all that I have tried. Please send it at once.

Having been one of your customers more than a year when, I lived in Imperial, California. I write now inquiring of your goods. I am very much in need of some of your Grower and Tonic. My scalp is simply ruined with dandruff. Do let me hear from you as soon as possible.

THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF COLORED PEOPLE
This journal has always given freely of its space; publicity of the activities of the above organization both Nationally and locally and we propose to continue to do so, for the reason that we believe it to be one great organization which is doing something tangible for the advancement of this people.
To assist it the most we feel that our mission at home is to create a greater interest right here, talk about a thousand members here in Los Angeles, we should make it two thousand and then some, and becoming a member the people should be live ones; participate in the efforts to make the Los Angeles branch the greatest branch in this Western country as it by all means should be, as here we have the greatest population and consequently the greatest interest. Theretore it is squarely up to the people of this city to get busy along this line of effort. While up North this winter at the State Capitol we noted the activity of the branch of that city, they were at all times alive to the issues which came before the people of that section, and would take up the various phases of their work with promptness and despatch, they held general meetings once each month and made such meeting worth while, in other words kept up a genuine interest.
And now it is easy to see the great good which can be accomplished in this bailiwick if we should adopt this course of action; let us all pull together with a mighty effort for a greater, a bigger, and better Association in this the metropolis of the great West.
THE U. B. F. AND SISTERS OF THE MYSTERIOUS TEN
Last Sunday week at Wesley Chapel an exposition of the work of this worth while home made order was rendered at this church amid the fullness of the members and friends of this order, at which time Rev. A. P. Shaw preached a notable sermon, in which he paid high tribute to its founders and the faithful who are at this day carrying on the great work. Inadvertently the account of this notable gathering was left out of our last issue, but we cannot forego praising to the utmost the wonderful showing which they made on this occasion. A. B. Norman is G. M.; A. L. Tilton, Deputy G. M.; Mrs. W. H. Shores; G. P., and under this reign the order is going forth accomplishing great things.
LAST TUESDAY'S ELECTION
It's a long story, complicated in its ramifications but on last Tuesday the people to their very own satisfaction solved the problem and now they will look for lasting results. The Eagle took high ground in the contest just closed, we deprecated the partisanship which was attempted in a non-partisan contest and suggested the proposition to trust the people their verdict we accept. We sincerely believe that our new chief executive will be the mayor of all the people, and we believe that he will give all the people recognition in the affairs of the city government. We shall be found at all times contending for a just recognition for all the people.
In the busy days of the campaign we overlooked the course of welcoming our contemporaries in our midst. While they are rather late getting in the game with the people, for our part they are welcome just the same: while location does

Rev. A. D. Chandler the far
famed Baptist Divine of Michigan
who for several years has
pastored in the State of Cincinnati, Ohio and will be
remembered by some of the oldtimers of this city as once pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist Church; will preach Sunday morning at the Second Baptist Church. Rev. Chandler's reputation as a minister of the Gospel goes before him and Sunday morning long before the hour of service the pews of the Second Baptist Church will claim her portion of worshippers.
The movement inaugurated by the business men and the opening of Central Quarters has the hearty endorsement of this paper, we believe it to be a move in the right direction and if carried out as promoters of the same have indicated it cannot help but be a magnificent success; hew to the line, play no favorites; a strong pull for the uplift of all businesses—the only way to win. We heartily join in the movement and will always be found on deck to do our bit.
After the election they all say: "I told you so!"
The visit of James Weldon Johnson to the coast has been of inestimable value in arousing the people of this section along the line of their bounden duty; that of giving a strong support to the activities which will ultimately mean the practical solution to the problems of oppression and lawless discrimination being heaped upon an integral part of the citizenship of this country.
The conduct of some of the street corner and soap box orators on last Monday at 12th and Central Ave. was reprehensible to say the least, when we essay to appeal to prejudice and hoodlum methods we are indeed sliding backward on the lines of civilization. We hope to never again witness such disgraceful scenes in which any member of this race is concerned.
With the closing of the campaign we can again get acquainted with the issues thru these columns and shall take pleasure in doing so both for the satisfaction of ourselves and the edification of our readers.

MUSIC NOTES.
The "Musical Courier", one of the largest musical Magazines in the Country, in its issue of May 22nd. has a half column and photo of Roland W. Hayes, our greatest tenor.
The reading matter is made up principally from the criticisms of the San Diego Union and "The Oakland Tribune".
The tutor has this comment on the death of Lieut. James R. Europe. "Music of any and all kinds is a great social leveller and breeder of real democracy. At the funeral of the colored "jazz king" Jim Europe (who came to such an untimely death at the hands of one of his enraged players, a drummer) some of those in attendance were Col. Wm. Hayward, of the 369th. Major L. Esperance and Major Hamilton Fish, John Wanawardmaker Jr., Lieut. Col. Fillmore (one of the honary pall bearers), representatives of the Allied Theatrical Association, the Elks, Masons, Clef Club, Womens National Defense League and many other prominent organizations. Jim Europe had done much for Negro Music by helping to raise it to the dignity of concert performance of distinctly popular character.
Miss Mary Jordan the great Contralto, has this to say of Negro music.
"Everywhere that I have sung I have presented Harry T. Burleighs Negro Spiritual settings. These are really our American folk - music it seems to me. Before presenting my progames in the cities I visit I give a brief talk explaining the difference between these spirituals and other folk - music. It gives the audience new interest in them, to know that these lovely melodies are Amrican folk songs. Surely it is time that our people awoke to the beauty and significance of their musical heritage! Surely it is time for them to be interested in their own possessions."
The great Galli Curci says; "I like the Negro Spirituals, they are such sincere expressions."
And this from The Christian Science Monitor":
"Talking about the music of the negro in the Southern States. Louise Alice Williams singer and reader, declares that the plantation type of melody must in certain respects trace its origin back to Africa. When the point was made against this theory that Negro tunes are too obviously built on the European major and minor scales to be referred to any ancient racial source, she held that at all events the Negro must have brought with him to America from his ancient habitat his method of song, which method is one of peculiarly one of improvisation.
The Southern Negroes always sing as they work, and usually they make up a song that has something to do with their work, you hear them in the cotton fields, singing as they pick cotton, you hear the women shouting the refrain of an old melody as inevitably as you see the red gleam of their bandana handercheifs. In the cities too, especially the old fashioned one like Charleston, Savannah and Columbia, you will constantly pass Negroes who improvise a song as they walk along; and here and there you will come across a solitary singer at a street corner, trumping a banje accompaniment to his tune." A kind of music which many people associate with the Negroes, but which they do not, in old Southern localities, care for is rag time. Negro popular songs of the authentic sort are zealously cultivated and preserved for Negroes in Hampton Institute and Fiske University."

Greatest Girl Speaker On Amer-
Miss Myrtle Anderson, the greatest girl lecturer has returned after a nine month's tour East as far as the Atlantic; North to the Lakes; and South to the Gulf. She has spoken to several thousand colored and white citizens in the largest cities in the country. In the South she spoke fearlessly on the race question to white audiences; spoke at the national Baptist Convention in St. Louis. Mo. to ten thousand; also spoke to the students in the various schools and colleges in the South and East. The purpose of the tour was to secure expenses for completion of her course in the Law School of Chicago University. Miss Myrtle Anderson will deliver her famous lecture, at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church, on the 29th of June, 5th Sunday, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Everyone is cordially invited to come out and hear for themselves.
Miss Myrtle Andeson will also appear at the Masonic Hall under the auspices of the Negro Women's Council on Monday evening, June 30th. Come out again and hear her.
Fay Lucile Estes, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Estes, sister of Ernest, Jr., Joseph A. and Ralph E. Estes, departed this life on June 3, 1919. She was born in San Diego February 17, 1919; age at death, 3 months, 2 weeks, and 3 days. In a few words of condolence to the bereaved family, we must say that God giveth, and God taketh, so blessed be the name of the Lord."
"Atlas how changed that lovely flower, which bloomed and cheered their hearts.
Fair fleeting comfort of an hour, flow soon they were called to part"
And shall their bleeding heart arraign
That God, whose ways are love;
Or vainly cherish anxious pain
For her, who rests above?
No! let them rather humbly pay
Obedience to his will.
And with their inmost spirit say,
"The Lord is righteous still."
From adverse blasts and lowering storms,
Her favored soul he bore;
And with yon bright, angelic forms,
She lives to die no more.
Don't forget the Big 19th of June
Picnic at Mission Cliff Gardens, and remember you are invited to come,
and bring a basket with lunch enough for one more.
HEAR MRS. FLORENCE HODGE-PRICE in Recital at Kastle Hall, Thursday evening, June 12, auspices of the Friday Club. She will be ably assisted by some of San Diego's best talent and the proceeds will go towards meeting the expense of entertaining the State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs which meets here in July.

MU-MORIAM CARD.
April 13, 1919, San Diego, Cal.
She lingered, not in sorrow's gale,
That moves along relentlessly,
But in this race, that mortals run,
She ran it very gently;
Life's delight and dash are even,
And the final heat is reached in
Heaveh.
Relations, companions, and the gleam
of earth.
And the leader wins, for the leader is
Death;
But beneath the sky, where rests her
head.
And dear companions say "she's
dead,"
Say nay to them, and say truly.
She is absent only, in discharge of
duty.
(By her sster, Irene W. Shepherd, and brother, Fred R. Johnson.)
THE PROGRESSIVE BUSINESS LEAGUE HOLDS ITS SECOND MEETING
(By Walter L. Gordon, Reporter)
The Progressive Business League met at its headquarters on the entire upper floor of the New Ago Building, 120114 Central Avenue, on Friday evening last.
So much interest and encouragement was shown and the benefits arising from the organization so plainly set forth, that the enthusiasm ran so high that more than seventy members were enrolled on the evening alone.
Hon. Frederick M. Roberts, first race assemblyman in California, was chosen temporary chairman.
A Special Nominating Committee presented the following names as officers elect for the organization:
H. A. Reeves, President; Walter L. Gordon, First Vice-President; J. W. Coleman, Third Vice-Pres.; Katherine Barr, Fourth Vice-Pres.; J. C. Colly, Secretary; Capt. T. N. McKinney, Asst. Seyc.; Alvin L. Rickman, Treasurer. Board of Governors: M. W. May; T. A. Cole; F. N. Westheimer; M. G. Stokes; W. Spencer; T. N. McKinney. (Fourteen more to be elected)
Above names presented were lected to fill respective offices.
During the course of the evening the chairman introduced each person, permitting him to speak of the particular line of business in which he is engaged.
Eighteen different kinds of business enterprises were represented among the members composing this unique body, of which Los Angeles is justly proud.
Mr. H. A. Reeves, the newyl elected president, made the address of the evening. He clearly set forth the noble purposes and called attention to the advantages to be derived from such organization.
With the acquisition of such splendid membership, as has been its good fortune to obtain, this organization anticipates a year of unbounded success.
THE HEAENLY JERUSALEM WITH
A FULL DESCRIPTION
THEREOF
This is a subject that all God's children ought to be well informed on but it seems to be a dead letter. It lies silent and the churches all over this broad land, black and white, are so ignorant in this subject in which God intended that they should be well informed. There is a cause for it, so plain that way-faring man cannot err therein. I said that there was a cause and this cause I will attempt to state.
The Baptist Church was alright up to fifteen hundred years of time then there arose about eighteen different sects and denominations. The Baptist Church is very much like Eve, she fell victim to these new things; Matt. 24:4-5. 23:-24-25-26. Christ told his disciples even as Adam was commanded; not to eat of the forbidden fruit. "And Jesus answered and said unto them, take heed that no man deceive you; for many shall come in my name saying I am Christ, and shall deceive many. Then if any man shall say unto you Lo here is Christ or there, believe it not. 24. For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that if it were possible they shall deceive the very elect. 25. Behold I have told you before. 26. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, behold he is in the desert; go not forth behold he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. These denominations each one organized a school and called it a Christian school and the Baptist they lost sight of God's way and organized one too, and sent men to the schools to be taught how to preach the gospel of the son of God. And God hasn't approved of it, because he has a teacher of his own to teach his children. God has moved the candle stick out of its place. That is the cause of the ignorance in the churches today. And they that come in the knowledge of God and the spiritual things they are individuals and not the churches. We notice John 14:2-3—"In my father's house are many mansions, if it were not so, I would have told you; I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am there ye may be also. Notice Revelation 21:2-3—"And I John saw the Holy City New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband, and I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, behold the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people and himself shall be with them and be their God. This is the place he went to prepare. Has he returned again? He has, he stands and knocks at the door of each mind. Said he that hears his voice and opens the door he will come into him and sup with him. His voice is the truth this is the first born. Come down on earth dwelling with men, and the citizens of this kingdom and foundation. The twelve apostles are the foundations of this city; twelve tribes of Israel are the twelve gates and we must understand they were all baptists. So these are the foundations of the city that God forknew before he built the
city. Zud Chapter Ephesus, above verse. All that have not come, thru this channel of God's divine order they are strangers and foreigners. 19th. "Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and of the household of God; and rae built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone; in whom all the building fifty framed together groweth unto a holy temple in the Lord. Notice 2 Daniel, 45th verse. For as much as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands. Isaiah 28:16. Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone a tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste. Matthew 16:18 and I say also unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I

Negroes of Pasadena Awakening To
The Importance of Organiza-
tions that are worth
While
Two real worth while organizations
are hearing completion among the
degrees of Pasadena; one is the very
needed branch of the N. A. A. C. P.
which received a start about a week
ago by the Brotherhood Club of the
Friendship Baptist Church, and
another big boost at the 1st A. M. E.
Church on last Sunday.
There is already enough paid and
pledged members in Pasadena to ori-
ganize with and many more to be
had as soon as the plans and require-
ments are completed. This organization
is the strongest medium in the
United States for the benefit and ad-
vancement of the Colored people, and
everybody should be a member.
The other organization is a Colored branch of the Y. W. C. A. in Pasadena. There was a temporary organization effected on Thursday evening May 29th, and a meeting is called at the Social Hall on Waverly Drive for the 3rd Sunday in June, the 15th, at 1 o'clock to effect a permanent organization. We have great encouragement from the Central Y. M. C. A. and the time is wholly ripe for the negroes to have a place for our young men and old men too to improve their minds, spirits and bodies. Every man in Pasadena should be at the Social Hall on the above date with a willing mind and money to immediately take a membership in the organization.
Two Deaths in Friendship Baptist Church Membership
On Saturday May 31st Miss Helen Peavy departed this life after a very severe spell of sickness during which she suffered intensely. Helen was a brave little Christian girl and mad a brave little Christian girl and made a the inevitable.
Helen was a very consistent Christian girl who loved the Sunday School, B. Y. P. U., and the church in general, and was always ready and willing to do anything for the betterment of all. She had a host of friends among the younger set and was well beloved by the older people. She will be missed by the B. Y. P. U. and Sunday School especially, as she was always a willing volunteer off service.
The funeral was held at the Friendship Baptist Church on last Monday with the Rev. W. H. Tillman officiating, the young people composing the Choir, and the Pall bearers were made up of young girls of her set.
Mrs. Caroline Lewis, who was a very dear friend of Helen's and her sister, Mrs. Richardson, called at the home of Mrs. Richardson on Sunday evening to console the bereaved sister and brother-in-law was stricken with death suddenly and passed away there where she had come to console. Mrs. Lewis was a very faithful member of the friendship Baptist Church, and had been in the employ of Mrs. McBougal for 31 years and was a very trusted and respected member of the household. She was a very motherly woman, with a sweet disposition and made friends with whoever she met. She was born in Richmond, Va., in 1851, moved to Ohio in 1888. She came to Pasadena a few years ago with the McBougal family and remained with them until she died. The funeral was held at the Church on Wednesday at 2 p. m., the Rev. W. H. Tillman delivered the eulogy; the Rev. W. H. M. Dickerson was Master of Ceremonies. Mrs. Corine B. Hicks who has known Mrs. Lewis for many years had the funeral arrangements in charge. The family with whom she lived and served for so many years were all present at the funeral. A friend of the family sang a very touching solo. The Daughters of Tabernacle of which Mrs. Lewis was a member turned out with her and ceremony at the church was very impressive. Solos were sung by Mr. Win Reynolds, Mrs. R. A. Dent, Mrs. Bessie Dickerson and Rev. J. A. Fleming. A duet by Mrs. Lawson and Mrs. Harrison, with the Choir singing the Hymns. The Church will miss Sister Lewis from every standpoint.
Many Pasadena people are preparing to go to Riverside during the first 10 days in July to attend the W. B. S. and B. Y. P. U. Convention and Chataquua. They figure on making it a very great vacation time.

SNYDER WINS.
(Continued from Page One)
The People Assert Themselves
The big effort to stampede the people by making a party issue out of a non-partisan election ingloriously failed: It seems as though the PEOPLE had the same conception of this angle of the situation as THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE and as Uncle Chet Thomas of Kansas would say, they went to the polls and voted as they d—— pleased.
As indicated by the returns the people add their inning at the bat and knocked all offerings served them to all corners of the lot and caused Snyder to win with ease.
Part Played By The Colored Moters
It was noticeable from the beginning that the colored preachers were dissatisfied with the moral conditions and even at the primaries many of them unhesitantly lined up for and endorsed Snyder; later on at the cracking of the party whip, some of them fell by the wayside, (that handkercheif would not come off, neither would the scales fall from their eyes) but we have some big preachers who have a vision and taking a stand on ground they will stay there until their "change comes."
ELLAKEOUS AND HETEROGENEOUS LINEUP
Leadership on the Woodman side went begging until C. Olivier deserted the Snyder Camp and went forth to deliver for Woodman; be it said however, to his credit, he worked faithfully under a handicap, and in some quarters halted what would have been a rout. Subordinates of his were Capt. E. L. Gaines of Pasadena; Rev. E. T. Hubbard of Imperial!: H. Douglass Greer; C. W. Wilson; L. C. Luke; Wood Wilson; Sherman Overton and others; last but not least the Doughty Attorney, W. O. Tyler, premier spell binder, who unmercifully wielded the party lash. But all to no avail, the figures in the black belt told the story they were too many readers of the 'Eagle' and that self same organ carried the Snyder dope, and riddled the old party bunk to a frazzle.
The Snyder Linqu
Attorney E. Burton Ceruti from the primaries to the election was to the foremost for the winners, he directed the publicity end of the campaign and used profuse space in these columns as well as other papers. The result speaks for the success which he attained. Jesse Lewis was also a tireless worker in the Snider Camp, while W. H. Sanders and his corpse of workers performed trojan service throughout the black belt. R. G. Lamar, Mrs. S. Wortz, Mrs. Eula Lyle and others worked to such advantage that in the entire black belt Woodman carried only 2 precincts and one of those only by two votes. The Negro Press
The California Eagle was the medium most sought by the Snyder forces and heralded the information to the people, many thousands of extra copies were distributed throughout the city preceding both the primary and general election. The New Age fell for the party punk and went up Salt Creek with the remnants of the Woodman brigade. The Advocate truly got off to a fast start and was right in line for a front seat, it was giving editorial support but for some reason faltered and was content with copy handed in for display space and this publication lost a marvelous opportunity for a front seat in the Snyder band wagon.

A colored, woman's interpretation of Senator Reed's colored speech in the U. S. Senate Tuesday morning. ing.
First of all I must say that the Missouri Senator has given me a new version of the Peace Conference, and for the first time has made me see wherein I can personally excuse the President for traveling abroad when he is so much needed at home.
Secondly I would like to know what has become of that Censor Board which held up the "Crisis" a few weeks ago, because Dr. Du Bois related a bit of the actual treatment accorded negro soldiers while on duty in France, for Uncle Sam.
In his speech the good Senator reaches across the pond, and criticises (including his president) the makers of the Conference, and then turning his poisonous venom (his style of rhetoric) upon what he sees fit to call the Colored population of the world, or using his own language an unclassifiable mongrel breed; he paints this majority population, according to his own figures a shade tarker, in character, than a cur dog. It seems however, that some angelic vision has come over Mr. Reed and while he lay asleeping the hand writing appeared on the wall announcing the meat unless Mr. White Man would recognize the edict that all men were created equal under God's law his reign as the superior being or dictator of the world's standard of civilization was rapidly reaching its close.
Senator Reed's speech was more like the meandering of a half mad man than the speech of a sane Senator representing the people of his state as has been stated by Senator Robinson in his answer. Reed is prejudiced.
The darker peoples and especially the group in this country classified as the American negro or the Colored American receives the good Senator's message to the U. S. Senate at this time as the first ray of the morning light. For all of these years you would have him sleep, and when signs of his awakening appeared on civilization's horizon you soothed him back to sleep, but never again will this once sleeping Herculean entirely close his eyes, whether or not you give him a place at the Peace Table and the privilege of advancing his ideas on all points of law, national and international, his mind's eye is open, and even though he must see from afar he sees, and he knows that God lives, and even Senator Reed with his pre-warning to the white population of the world can no longer deny the darker peoples of the earth a place in the sun.—C. A. B.

WILLIAM H. SANDERS
The above is an excellent likeness of W. H. Sander well-known in political circles as an earnest and hard worker for the success of whomsoever he supports and during the campaign just closed he rendered valiant service for the election of M. P. Snyder. His genius for organization with a corps of workers had much to do with the victorious culmination of the Snyder Campaign and Mayor Snyder and Manager Blanchard do not hesitate to give him full credit for his work.
Mr. Sanders has a rich and varied experience along political lines not only in his native state of Miss., but at St. Louis, Mo., where for many years he held an important position in the Street Department of that city. He was one of the cogs in the famous Ed Mutler machine, which in conjunction with Chainey Filley always had a strangle hold on the politics of America's Fifth city; his memoirs and authentic recollections of the political trend for the last 40 years is remarkable and marks him as a man who has always kept abreast of the time along the lines of political effort. With a keen foresight he has proved his worth in California and has demonstrated his political genius in the results which he has brought forth.

Hagique and Conique
A lull, a cracking of dry paper, a whirr of the press then a sudden last bump and all was still. The printer's Devil mopped his face, gave a low whistle and rolled his eyes lazily around the deserted shop in search of —? His subconcience registered the quieted movements of the printer in the rear, but the Lyno machine gruff, massive and stubbornly silent drew from the eyes of the poor "Devil" a yearning. Then shifting his gaze to the tumbled desk and vacant chair—with a sigh inaudible, he turned again to the whirr and bump of the Press.
Accidentally he—the editor—dropped in, mouth ope'd, face puffed, gasping, heavy eyed with beads of perspiration popping out from beneath his derbe, silently threw he several hundred pounds on a chair that squeaked and reeked under its burden. To the relief of the now red-faced perspiring-poor "Devil" the managing editor came and he, by the direction of her gaze seemed to find her chief business under the shadiest of shade trees. So, Summer dressed in the glarious of her wardrobe visited the Eagle office Monday and found two of the staff off—One vamping the cool breasts and spartan springs of

Something is going to happen! Two days this week he has been away Today his successor came in. Long and serious was their communication. To those around him sage and careful has been his advice, warnings and admonitions. Tomorrow his lawyer is expected to come in to get his last testament of will. He in general is wearing that heartrending "I won't be with you long children" expression. I wonder now if the Lyno operator is going to heaven or if, quite the contrary, he is going to the Baptist Convention in Allensworth next week?
The Managing Editor asked the "Subscription Manager" to look up Christian's subscription. "What Christian?" asked said\manager. "There is but one Christian on the book," replied the managing editor. The Sub Manager searched and found more than one Christian on the book;—then asked the Editor what was the address of the Christian of which she had inquired. "Christian of Central Ave.!" finaled the Editor. Sorrowfully the Sub Manager replied. "There are no Christians on Central Ave."
