GRAND UNITED ORDER OF ODI FELLOWS HOLD MEMOR- ABLE THANKSGIVING SERVICE ON LAST SUNDAY. Sunday, May the 11th, will go down the ages as one of the greatest events in the history of this section in fraternal circles, as on this occasion the Odd Fellows, Households of Ruth, Juveniles and Patriachies, covered themselves and this noble order with imperishable glory by the magnificent appearance which they made on the occasion of their annual Thanksgiving service. Promptly at 2:30 o'clock the line of March proceeded from Old Fellows' hall, corner of 8th and Wall street, headed by Sterling Light Lodge, followed by Golden Rule Lodge with Los Angeles Lodge and the Patriarchicle bringing up the place of honor at the rear, with Grand Master J. B., Bess and Grand Treasurer J. D. Groves following, led by La Blanc's brass band o fifteen pieces. The procession proceeded north on Wall street to Seventh street, east on Seventh to San Pedro to 8th, and west, to Wesley Chapel on 8th and San Julian streets, at which place formed in open order, the Household of Ruth and Juveniles passed through the lines into the church; the sisters of the Household and Juveniles presented a beautiful sight, dressed in immaculate white, with the regalia of the order made a fine setting for the gold embroidered uniforms of the Patriarchicle and the conventional black of the brethren. There were 500, all told, in line of march, and indeed it was not a notable occasion. Passing into the church, which was packed to the utmost, S. H. Greene, Noble Grand, called the audience to order, and in a few voll chosen works presented A. B. Norman as the Master of Ceremonies. Mr. Norman filled the position with the highest credit, and the service was conducted with clock-like precision. Prayer was offered by the Rev. Dean of Hamilton M. E. Church. Scripture reading by Rev. J. M. Metorkile of the A. M. E. Zion Church. Mr. Isiah Robinson made a most excellent address on the alms and objects of the order. Master Adolf Jones, for the Juveniles, indeed represented his department most nobly, while Miss Gertrude Henry read a paper on the order which was most highly appreciated. Mrs. Sadie Daniels favored with a solo, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Grand Master Makes Address. At this juncture, J. B. Bass, Grand Master of the Jurisdiction, was pre- The California Eagie sented by the Master of Ceremonies and made a stirring address, which was a fitting prelude to the sermon which followed by Rev. J. B. Price, Noble Grand of Golden Rule Lodge. At the conclusion of the sermon, a collection was lifted and turned over to the trustees of the church, the preacher of the sermon and to the choir. The Household and brethren then again joined in the line of march and returned to their hall, headed by the Grand Master and Past Most Noble Governess, Mrs. Eliza Warner. And thus came to a close one of the greatest and most notable events in fraternal circles ever witnessed in this section, and marks the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows at the very forefront for real progress and uplift.

San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland JAMES WELDON JOHNSON SURE TOUCHES HEARTS OF HIS HEARERS AT BANCHARD HALL LAST WEDNESDAY EVENING. James Weldon Johnson, distinguished man of letters, author, diplomat and statesman, made his first bow to a California audience on last Wednesday night at Blanchard hall, under the auspices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The coming had been profusely announced through the columns of the local press, and as a result a full house greeted the distinguished visitor. Dr. J. A. Somerville, president of the local branch, presided. He introduced Attorney E. Burton Coruti, who, in turn, introduced Mr. Johnson. It developed that Attorney Coruti and Mr. Johnson were old school chums, and in a masterly manner, indeed, Mr Johnson was introduced. In his message to the people, he came up to all expectations and his, infused, was a real gripping message from the heart, without any attempt at dashing periods or flights of oratory in his matter-of-fact heart-to-heart talk. He performed well his mission of waking up the people to a realization of the fact that if they overcome the barriers which confront them, they must get busy and keep eternally so to the utmost. His portrayal of the heinous crimes committed against the group of American citizens was dramatic, indeed, and created within the breast of all who heard him a determination to do all in their power to bring about conditions which will forever prevent such atrocities in this, the home of the free and the land of the brave. Truly, Mr. Johnson's address is one to be long remembered, and the Field Secretary of the N. A. C. P. will forever be most highly appreciated by the people of this section of our country. We congratulate the people of these two cities on the success of their efforts, and will ask, why the citizens of Los Angeles can't do likewise?

An Open Letter Verdun, France, March 5 "Lilly-Walt." France. To Editor California Eagle: It gives us much pleasure to look over and read the article written in some of your editorall, which gives us much encouragement and great anxiety and anxious to be back once more among you. We also are glad to add to your long list of correspondents this one letter of information of the doings of a portion of the A. E. F. Colored dough boys. We of the war call of June last are still on the scene of what was at one time the most deadly sea of steel, which proved to be the crisis for many years. The evidence is getting written upon every inch of everything in this country. It is impossible to move or to even look anywhere without traces of the "demon war" passing under your observation. From the earth to the elements, suggest that which an unobserver could not imagine. Paper descriptions or even pictures of the devastated land, could not bring one's imagination to the full extent of the perils suffered by those who endured it. People who are now re-inhabiting the once people' slands, show without the second view traces of much suffering; to return to find their former homes a heap of wreckage torn to bits, having become a mark of some damaging explosion. The earth once called beautiful landscape now resembles the broadside of a sewing thimble, each hole filled with water and marking the death depot of humans. For one who was not an inmate of their country before the war, it appears that even the Master of all things has seen fit to add to the horrible scene a corresponding portion of nature. The "weather," besides the sights of entire destruction, we are suffering the most discourteous weather imaginable. Each day brings about all four seasons of the year, and frequently the well known month of April is represented throughout the entire day. Rainy, cold, dreary, gloomy, blue and lonesome is the natural completion of observation. The nights are very black and dreary, with exception of a full moon night, which is constantly hidden from view by large masses of heavy rolling clouds that linger over us forever.

Company Sets Forth That They Are in Line to Produce "Injustice." It is a pleasure to announce that the necessary amount of stock $15,000, has been subscribed to enable the Democracy Film Corporation to commence the production of the super-feature. "INJUSTICE,"—the exhibition of which all through the United States and throughout the civilized world do more to eliminate race prejudice than any books or public utterances hitherto leading to that end. Preparations are already being made for the selling of the picture, so ensure its being seen by millions of peoples all over the world. Captain Leslie T. Peacocke, the author of "INJUSTICE," who is going to direct the feel, feels assured that, besides doing immeasurable good to the Colored Race, it will be even a greater financial success than his "Neptune's Daughter," his super-feature exploiting Annette Kellerman, which made a financial profit of over a million dollars. The State Laws of California empowers the Company to sell an additional $15000 amount of Capital Stock, which is now being sold at par value, $1 per share. On and after June 1st the value of stock will be raised to $2 pershare, so all intending to come in on the ground floor had better do so before June 1st. Rev. Chaplain W. W. E. Gladden, U. S. A. retired, is Secretary of the Corporation, and will be glad to receive applications for stock at the City Office of the Company, 308 Germain Building, Phone Pice 203. Captain Peacocke the Director, will also be glad to receive applications from those wishing to take part in the production. Applicants will please bring or mail photographs to the same address. After the production of "Injustice" is completed the Company will produce two two-reel comedies every month and a five real feature every three months, in which none but Colored actors and actresses will be employed. It is the aim of the Company to establish a film producing concern 2nd to none in world, and to make their stars as famous as any on the screen. For the contemplated comedies 4 stars have already been selected. (the "Big Four")—namely, Charlie Chocolate, Mary Pickle, Douglass Darkshanks and David Wark.

GORDON LECTURES The lecture given under the auspices of the Acme Literary Club of the Tabernacle Baptist Church on last Thursday evening at the Peoples Auditorium was one that excited general interest by its very subject, that early in the evening the hall was filled to capacity to hear this unusual subject deliberated upon by one so gifted in the art of oratory as Dr. J. D. Gordon. Intense silence reigned as this man of God stood forth, and opened the bible on the text of "What God has joined together let no man put asunder" and then poured forth from his lips in silvery oration a new gospel indeed. The argument expounded by Dr. Gordon on this occasion, if rightly interpeted and rightly practised would mean a revival in moral and social conditions in this city and would save many lives the cruelty of an unhappy marriage. "Is Your Husband Your Mate" is a subject well worth the thought of all, especially good for those anticipating matrimony. The young people are to be commended upon the entire success of the program. Within the Acme Club are the makings of an element that spells uplift for the community.

Proffessor Wilkins interest is in music; Music awake and in sleeping, he dreams in strains of melody. So it is with great enthusiasm that the public is looking forward to the Third of June as a date on which something of the very best in a musical effort will be given. Already have notable white artists purchased their seats and Millionares of Hollywood engaged tickets. The students both white and colored are prepared to demonstrate the wonderful artistic Wilkins method of Piano Playing. Incidently we might mention that the Proffessor himself will play. WHY DREAMLAND HOTEL, AND WHY DREAMLAND HOTEL, AND CAFE SHOULD RECEIVE THE PATRONAGE OF COLORED PEOPLE Few people know that it was built by a colored contractor, and under orders of its owner none but colored labor should be employed. Hence pride alone prompted this order. It is now up the general public to show their appreciation by their patronage. The East Side Mothers' Club will close their membership drive and render a programme at the Postal Sunday afternoon. The Public is cordially invited to attend. MRS. F. C. ELKWORTH, MRS. MRS. V. M.

Services were enjoyable and profitable Sunday at this new and growing church. The pastor preached two interesting and inspiring sermons to increasing and growing congregations. The Sunday School under the leadership of Mr. R. L. Edwards continues to grow in numbers and enthusiasm. You are cordially invited to attend these services, and you will always find a welcome. The church tendered their pastor a very delightful welcome reception on Tuesday evening. A very interesting program was rendered under the direction of Rev. A. P. Shaw. Addresses of welcome were delivered by Rev. Prowd, Rev. Anderson, Rev. Price, Rev. Holt, on the part of the ministry, Mr. Edwards and Mr. Prioleau on the part of the church, and Dr. Outlaw and Lieuts. White and Matthews on the part of the citizens. Rev. Beane made fitting response to these very cordial words of welcome. After the program the friends retired to the Sunday School room, very tastefully decorated, and were served. A very enjoyable evening was spent. Sunday School at 9:30 p. m. and preaching at 11 a. m. A. C. E. League service at 6 p. m. Topic, "Life, the school of God." Preaching at 8 p. m. Subject, "A False Attitude." Last Sunday we had a glorious commemoration for mother, beginning largely in the morning with a sunrise prayer meeting. One addition to the church at the morning service. Come and worship with us. TABERNACL EBAg'PIST CHUKCH Rev. J. D. Gordon, Pastor. Sunrise prayer meeting opened the meeting for this glorious Sabbath day at 6:30 a.m. The Sunday School attendance is slowly but surely increasing. 11 o'clock service was well attended. Rev. J. H. Foster filled the pulpit in quite an effectual manner. B. Y. P. U. is very much alive and accomplishing much under the leadership of Mrs. B. M. Settles, as president. At the evening service, which began at 8 p.m., Pastor Gordon officiated. The seating capacity was very heavily overtaxed with members, visitors and friends, to witness the memorial services for the late H. H. Williams. The pastor will have charge of both services on next Sunday. Come out and learn of the financial success of this church. There will also be blessing in store for you. PEO. IND. CHURCH OF CHRIST- Rev. N. P. Greggs, Pastor. Sunday was a great memorial in the history of this church, as it was Mother's Day. The Sunday School opened promptly at 9:30 a.m. with the presence of 100 children, all seemingly anxious to honor the great day. The Sunday School is divided into three divisions: primary, intermediate and adult departments, with efficient teachers instructing their respective classes in God's word. The sermon for the morning, delivered by Rev. Greggs, was taken from the Epistle of Paul to the Romans 1:2: "For the Wages of Sin Is Death, but the gift of God is Eternal Life through Jesus Christ Our Lord." Rev. Greggs in his most eloquent delivery simplified his illustrations so beautifully that a little child could understand, and repent. He also explained that sin was but disobedience to God, and therefore we have to be punished, also that if we love God we will obey Him, just as a child tries to please and obey mother through its love for her. The text for the evening was, "The Man Whom God Does Not Want," taken from St. Matthew 22:1-14, which was inspiring to all present. The music rendered by the choir was in keeping with the day. In the morning a duet was sweetly sung by Mms. King and Brown, "Tis the Old-Time Religion." In the the evening Miss Joy Washington sang, "Tell Mother I'll be There," which was indeed impressive. Two accessions were recorded for the day. One young man gave his life to Christ as a tribute to his mother. The collection for both services amounted to $116.69. Baptism will take place next Sunday at 3 p. m. All are welcome. 8th and TOWNE AVE. CHURCH—Fax 1107 Lorenan Pastor Mother's Day was fittingly observed the past Sabbath to the edification of two large representative congregations. The pastor presided at the morning service and there were two accessions to membership. A very helpful and enthruslastic session of the Christian Endeavor Society meeting was enjoyed by a large assembly of our young people. The evening services under the direction of Mrs. Minnie Davis, superintendent mother's work California State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, was indeed a true source of inspiration and highly intellectual treat, conducive to worthy deeds by all who will make practical the many good thoughts given out, by the many distinguished speakers who appeared on the program. The offering for the day was very good. Rev. W. C. Davis, with "The Rolling Barrel," will preach at 11 a. m. this coming Lord's Day at 3:15 p. m. The pastor will preach for Rev.

M. E. Church was crowded to overflowing Sunday night. The occasion was the Odd Fellows' and Household of Ruth's thanksgiving services. Rev Laws, who is also a member of the lodge, preached a very interesting sermon. Mrs M. Morton, M. N. G. of the Household, read a splendid paper. A fine collection was taken up and altogether the new minister and wife. Rev. and Mrs. Collins, who arrived on day last week and made their first appearance Sunday, was a fine beginning and gave them hope. Rev. Collins made a splendid talk and expressed himself as being everybody's friend and his intention of calling on everybody, and asked the co-operation of everybody in building up the membership of St. Andrews. The church was pretty adorned with potted palms, cut flowers in vases set about on stands and the altar and piano. Mr. Eldridge McGee sang a solo accompanied by Mrs. R. J. Fletcher, which was very much appreciated. Rev C. Williams pastor of Shiloh Baptist, gave an interesting talk. Rev Williams showed his liberal spirit when he and his church closed and brought his congregation to St. Andrews to welcome Rev. and Mrs. Collins, and attend the thanksgiving services. If his example were followed, it is safe to say a better community would be the result. Too much selfishness has prevailed and will certainly have to give way to broader minds before we succeed. The members of the Monday Club had charge of the Mothers' day exercises at St. Andrews Sunday morning. The church was bedecked in a beautiful floral arrays and the program very well rendered Mrs P F O'Reilly was faithful in arranging affairs both for the morning and evening services. -Mr. J. Buchanan spent Monday evening in Woodland, a guest of the New Household of Ruth recently set up there. Mr and Mrs J. Soares and two young daughters have been suffering from severe colds, which seem to be visiting many homes and causing some uneasiness. A number of people from Woodland, Roseville and Marysville, were attendants at the Shirt Waist Dance Monday night. The coming of Mr. James Weldon Johnson will surely bring a rare intellectual treat to the members of the N. A. A. C. P. and all lovers of intelligence. He will lecture at Labor Temple, May 28th Admission 35 cents and war tax. No one should miss hearing this distinguished scholar and field secretary of the National Association for the Protection of Colored People. Mrs. M. J. Harp has been under the Doctor's care for some time, having treatments for ear trouble which has prevented her from filling her place as president of the Monday Club and attending other affairs. The Mothers' Club assisted the Moplay Club with Mottlers' Day services at St. Andrews Sunday morning, in rendering such an interesting program. Mrs. Barbour and Mrs. K. C. Brown did their part for the Mothers' Club with credit. Mrs. E. W. Robinson read a splendid paper. Mrs J. Spares was unable on account of a terrible cold to deliver the beautiful sofa she had prepared for the occasion. Mrs. E. W. Robinson has been busy the past week with painters and cleaners beautifying the interior of her home. Friends of Mrs. Ellen Cogar will rejoice again to know that she pulled through the hard spell of illness and is able to be about the house, though very weak. The splendid care given her by her daughter, Mrs. Annie Brown, was instrumental in placing Mrs. Cogar on her feet again. Members and friends of St. Andrews will greet Rev. and Mrs. Collins Wednesday night at the parsonage with a donation party. Members of the N. A. A. C. P will please take a look at your receipt cards and note the date of expiration and renew your membership by calling on the Secretary, Mrs. J. W. Scott at 410 22nd street or call up 1355-R and pay the dollar fee. You can't afford to neglect so important a thing as this and allow yourself to become a slacker at this critical time. So wake up and prepare yourself with proper protection. Mr. Henry Purvis has been reinstated into the K. P.'s. Mr. Ben Turk of Roseville was down on business one day last week. The dance given by the Household Monday night, was well attended and a good time was had. It was a finan- cial as well as social success. Friends of Mr. Louis Drumine of the 25th Infantry received word of a painful accident he is suffering from, caused by the fall of a horse which he was riding, and broke an arm and otherwise disabled him from army duty for some weeks. Mr. George Talbot was in town a few days last week on business and was the house guest during his stay, of his brother, Mr. O. N. Talbot and family. Mr. W. P. Taylor spent the weekend in Marysville, where his wife and young son Billy had been for a week or more, visiting her sister, Mrs. Guy Smith and family. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor returned home in time for the Shirt Waist dance Monday night. Miss Gertrude Atkinson has fully recovered from the recent operation she underwent for tonsilitis and has returned to her studies in high school. Mr. Charles returned last week from overseas and is now visiting with his mother, Mrs. Waaren, in Oakland. Mr. William Slaughter and Mr. R. O. Reilly were responsible for the Odd Fellows' part of the beautiful decoration of St. Andrew's A. M. E. church Sunday morning at the thanksgiving services. Mr. and Mrs. T. T. Smith of Mary- Tile came down for the dance Monday night and were guests of Mr. and Mrs. J. Smith. The N. A. A. C. P. held a special meeting at Shiloh Baptist church Friday night of last week to arrange for the membership drive. A short pro- gram was a pleasing feature. The in- strumental solo by Miss Page was well received and the most inter- esting talks by Miss M. Cummings) was induced a pleasant surprise.

The pastor's Mother's Day sermon was a splendid effort and was full of very helpful suggestions. The evening sermon dealt with the relation of father to son and was also very helpful. There was one accession to the church. The various lodges of Odd Fellows and Households of Ruth held their annual thanksgiving sermon in the afternoon. This service was very largely attended and the sermon by Rev J. M. Price was well received. Since our last report we have received more than $200 on our 21st anniversary effort, making a total of $1526.07. We take this means of thanking our loyal members and friends for the splendid showing and urge them now to begin to get ready for our June pay day, on which day we hope to do equally as well. The backbone of our debt is already broken. Let us not stop until we have finished our task. Wesley Chapel out of debt in two years is no joke. We mean business. This Sunday will be up to the usual high standard. The pastor will preach morning and evening. Our choir will sing at the welcome service to Rev. S. M. Bene in the afternoon at 3 o'clock at Hamilton church. All are welcome. Come and worship with us. BETHEL CHURCH OF CHRIST (HOLINESS) Hooper Ave. and Adams St. The past Sunday was a joyful day at Bethel. Sunday School was well attended. We are pleased to note the increased interest of the adults. Mother's Day was fittingly observed. The pastor delivered a wonderful message at the morning hour. The sermon was edifying and very helpful. The congregation was electrified through the power of the Holy Spirit. Shouts of joy and praises were heard as the necessity of true mother and womanhood was so wonderfully set forth. At the evening hour the pastor brought another THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Announcement MR. H. D.

Price, Pastor. Although we are sadly in need of teachers and workers who are trained with the spirit of the service. Will you hear the call and come to Macidonia and help us? At 11 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. Rev. S. E. We are very thankful to our Heavenly Father who has enabled us to make this report to our friends, that our work is truly growing numerically and spiritually. Two precious souls united with us on the past Sabbath, and a splendid young man coming forward for prayer. In the past thirty days we have had about ten additions, and together with our regular workers, they are proving to be quite a blessing. Mother's day services were above the average, and the worshippers were really blessed with the out- porting of the Spirit. The tea given to the Women's Mite Missionary Society at the residence of Mrs. Dixon, 15£5 W. 36th Place, was a grand success. The conclusion of the Souvenir Bond effort will be Sunday, May 4th, the day set to get in all money for bonds and make final report. Services for Sunday as usual.

BIRCH ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH T. C. Cothran, Minister. Mother's Day was observed with sacred interest at Birch St Church last Lord's Day. At H 0'clock a.m. the pastor spoke upon the subject, "Behold, Thy Mother." John 19:27. He made special reference to Christ's love for His mother and the need of a more efficient motherhood nowadays. At 8 o'clock p.m. Mrs. F. C.othran presented a special program beitting to the occasion of Mother's Day. After a beautiful selection by the choir and prayer by Sister W. J. Thompson, Madame A. C. Richardson gave the introductory paper, in which she beautifully portrayed mother' slove and making special references to the virtues of the motherhood of our colored American women. Mr. W. H. Walker, Mr. Zollar Jas. Brown, Mr. Thompson, Mrs. Harris of Calexico, and others, paid beitting tributes to mother. The pastor was the recipient of a happy birthday surprise May 13th by a group of thoughtful members of his church. It was quite a gratifying affair. The choir, pastor and members of this church are to take part in a rally at the Lincoln Memorial Congregational Church next Lord's Day at 3 o'clock p.m. Regular services at Birch street. All welcome. PHILLIP CHAPEL, C. M. Mother's Day was fittingly observed at this church on the past Sunday. The pastor preached a very touching and practical sermon at the morning service. After the service the congregation repaired to the dining room, where dinner was served to all who chose to be the guests of the church. The pastor also baptised one candidate at the morning service. The afternoon meeting was one long to be remembered because of the spiritual feast that was enjoyed. The church sent autos for all the aged people of the church and community who desired to attend the services, and quite a few of these old patriarchs were present and electrified the general class meeting with their testimonials. The pastor preached another strong sermon at the evening service. There were two accessions to the membership of this fast growing, popular church during the day. The music furnished by our choir on the past Sunday was a sermon in song. The hearts of the hearers were thrilled with the beautiful numbers rendered. Strangers and visitors are always welcome to the services of this church. Come where a welcome awaits you and where the old-time fire is burning. GRANT CHAPEL. A. M. E. CHURCH— Rev. W. C. Davis, Pastor Last Lord's Day was fittingly observed at this church both morning and evening. Our Sunday School is still increasing and doing nice work. Although we are sadly in need of teachers and workers who are truly imbued with the spirit of the service. Will you hear the call and come over in Macidonia and help us? At 11 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. Rev. S. E. Edwards of Imperial Valley preached for us. He delivered two powerful sermons. Next Sunday is rally day with us. Come out and help us raise $500 for the church and the Master. Dr. Craw will preach at 3 p.m. He, with his good people, will be with us at this service. The "Rolling Barrel" will be opened by the oldest member of the church. Come and enjoy this service with us. The church of the open door. The attendance and the lesson in our Sunday School gave great encouragement to all. The subject was the 'Fall of Adam.' Ample room there was in a subject like this for a variety of opinions and discussions, but all were forced to the conclusion that in the state which God had made and placed the first man, he was able to stand—though liable to fall there from. And that transgression of the law surely brings penalty and produces consequences. The Lord made bare his arm in sending us refreshing showers of blessings at our 11 a.m. service. All who were present saw His hand in everything that was done. The Junior Missionary Society held its usual meeting, and the B. Y. P. U. had a spirited discussion concerning its future meetings, and each member pledged loyal support, to the good work among the young people. Mrs. Cartwright, who is deeply interested in the improvement of conditions at the Ventura school was present and addressed the young people; and also the congregation in the main auditorium later. The Rev. Mr. Cuddy, a very spiritual man, gave a most instructive lecture on the "Prophecies of Daniel." The people expressed appreciation of our brother's lecture. Rev. Cuddy will lecture again this coming Sunday night on the "Second Coming of Our Lord." usin hih largest chart and giving Scriptural facts on every point. Come and hear him and bring your friends.

John Eldridge is the selected speaker for the occasion, while other ministers will assist. There will be preaching every night during the week by various invited ministers. We have good singing and there is room for you. Come and bring some one else. TENNS CHATTER Watch and pray—ye racketees!" Because a brand new "tennis hope" loomed up on the local horizon last week, in the person of Thomas Edward Bain, and is a member of the new club. The Omega Tennis Club. They say this bird hankers toward a little trip up New York way this summer, and will enter both the May 30th and July 4th tournaments. Watch him, to see that he slips nothing new over, and pray that he breaks either an arm or a leg before July 4th. "Have a care, champs!"—a certain young lady has been playing a mean game of tennis lately, and has designs upon one of those silver cups that are to be presented at the "trophy dance" to the winners of the Decoration Day tournament. Say—what a weeping, waiting and such a grashing of teeth if this duet should bring home the bacon May 30th! Answer to A. R. M.: It is indeed true that playing tennis is a splendid formula for increasing, as well as reducing, one's averdupois. It is a well known fact that regular exercising (not to excess) will invigorate the blood, build up the muscular tissues and produce an enormous appetite, causing the player to drink large quantities of water and to eat more solid and nutritious foods, therapy taking on additional sound and healthy flesh. No one will argue about a fleshy person being able to lose many pounds by strenuous daily tennis playing. Messrs.

We are dead against all crookedness no matter in what places it is practiced. We are against vice and immorality. And from now on we propose not to "cover up" in the least those who practice immoral acts or are crooks, and on top of that aspire to positions of honor in either church or state; we propose to turn on the light and any of our churches or organizations that propose to keep in high places men who are crooked, vicious or immoral we propose to speak right out about it. We are cognizant of the fact that in some quarters this edict will make us very, very unpopular, but we have the satisfaction of having a clear conscience and that we are absolutely unafraid.

Never before in the history of the world has music been given the recognition that is being given to it today. Music is no longer a luxury, it is indeed a necessity. The colored musician is being given a chance. Will he make good? Read your daily papers and your monthly magazines for further information on this subject. See what support is being given to him by the other race and then ask yourself what support you are giving him. Need for preparation The fundamental fact that is greatly overlooked by the race in nearly line of endeavor, is sufficient preparation. Whether it be painting, sculpture, literature, music, professions of different sorts or even trades; one finds the same lack of finish, the same unthoroughness which shows a hastily acquired training. It takes years of hard work to achieve greatness and as in art there is no end, the musician will find himself compelled to study as long as life lasts. This probably is the reason why so many of the race start out brilliantly and in a few years are forgotten. They sit back, as it were, upon their laurels, not realizing that one never stands still in art. The world's greatest artists all agree that the higher you climb, the harder you must work, in order to be prepared for any and all requirement. Need for Support. Our duty as a race is to support any worthy endeavor, along any line that we happen to be moving. Give encouragement by thought, word and deed to the many aspirants for a place in the vast throng of those who are trying to do something. A kind word may mean the turning point in someone's career. I will quote here an extract from an article in the Los Angeles Sunday Times for May 17, 1919 by Edwin Schalbert. He says, "I know of no more pernicious foe to musical success than the jealousy of the artist. Yet it is so very often a part of the artist's life. Its seriousness is not merely a matter of the distasteful impression he creates on the one who has to listen, it is more dangerous in the effect on one's self. Jealousy never expands vision. it narrows it to the point where if persisted in one will look through the large end of a big telescope at the world, instead of being able to sweep the skies and see that only which it is given to the followers of stars to behold." Let us encourage the efforts of our race along all lines for advancement by giving our moral, financial and influential support at every worthy opportunity. COLORED OFFICERS AND THE REGULAR ARMY Chief of Staff Revokes Finding of Army Board Which Declared Negroes Disqualified for Officers and Leaders of Men—Record in All Wars Show Race is Not Deficient in Moral Fiber. Washington, De. C., May 7.—Letters have been forwarded to the War Department by Bishop Charles Spencer Smith as chairman of the Commission on After-War Problems, of the A. M. E. Church, W. T. Andrews, editor of the daily Herald, Baltimore, Md., and others of like prominence in public affairs, calling attention to an endorsement which had been place on the application filed by a colored officer who had been overseas, relative to his fitness or admission into the regular army. The endorsement, or recommendation, signed by a board of officers appointed to investigate the qualifications of candidates for assignments in the reorganized United States army, after summing up all citations and observations was as follows: "The Board recommends that he be not examined. Reason: unqualified by reason of the qualities inherent in the Negro race: an opinion of the Board, based on the testimony of five white officers serving with the 368th Infantry. Negroes are deficient in moral fiber, rendering them unfit as officers and leaders of men." (To be continued in next issue) SANTA MONICA, CA2.

"THE END OF A PERFECT WEEK" "THE END OF A PERFECT WEEK" Never in the history of fairs, and particularly church fairs, has there been such wonderful booths and pretty flower girls and hand-made articles and hot doughnuts and home ice creams, as was seen purchased and eaten at at the Bazaar of Allied Nations given by the Young Women's Missionary Auxiliary of the New Hope Baptist Church in the recreation hall and dining room on the church grounds. So beautiful in construction and well chosen in materials were the booths that the judges in the person of Rev. Prowd, Mr. C. A. Bass, Mr. Jackson, Rev. Mr. Hubert, had really a hard time in deciding which was the most attractive booth; finally awarding the first prize to the Japanese booth, with its real Joshua girls and cherry blossoms, in charge of Mrs. Sarah Williams, whom by the way, also won the prize for the booths which cleared the largest amount of money. The first prize was a genuine oil painting; the second prize was a cut glass rose basket, won by Mrs. Katie Johnson, who was manager of the Tri-color or French booth, which, indeed, was bravely patriotic with French flower girls; it was the Italian booth, Mrs. H. Robinson, captain, with its national color and dishes. One of the most unique booths was the log cajon or American booth, in charge of Mr. D. C. Knox, in which the most delicious hot doughnuts and coffee and home-made ice cream was served. The Bazaar was a great financial and social success, and has served to bring the church into closer relation with the people. The Young Women's Missionary Auxiliary takes this method of thanking the friends, members and the public for their hearty support and co-operation in making this affair, as all others have been, a tremendous success.

Zion Baptist Church, under the efficient leadership of Rev. W. R. Burgess, is growing numerically, financially and spiritually. Last week was a week of prayer services, and the pastor also gave a heart-to-heart talk with the members before the close of each service. As a reward of our labor one soul was added to the church in the person of Mr. George Mulholland. He told a wonderful experience of how he had for many years been running from the church and God, and had now given up everything that has been a hindrance to him from becoming a true follower of Christ. He was baptised Sunday afternoon and was given the right hand of fellowship Sunday evening. Mt. Zion Baptist Church Directory. Rev. W. R. Burgess, Pastor. Sunday School, 9:30, Sister M. A.

WHAT ABOUT THE Glancing at his headline of "The Pilot," of May 3rd, one would assume that one of the leading women of the Negro race in America was a common street walker. Can you imagine a Negro man, or woman, calling themselves intelligent editors, taking the name of Miss Fannie Burrough and using it in such a common way as "Nan Burris" in order to get sale for the paper? I want to say to the guilty parties that Miss Nannie Bourrough is a woman every inch of her, and the women have cause to be proud of her, and that she possesses more womanhood in her finger tips than they possess manhood in their whole bodies. I will further say that if it is necessary for the editor and the staff to resort to the slamming the names of our best and most leading women in order to get sale for the paper, the "Pilot," had better close its office now. Will the editor please explain the meaning of the head lines. MRS. ELLA ROSS HUTSON. PRES. Negro Women's Council ALLENSWORTH Elaborate Preparations Being Made to Entertain the California Baptist State Convention Which Meets June 9-16. Allensworth is all astir and getting herself ready to act as hostess to the delegates and visitors attending the California Baptist State Convention which meets here June 9-16. Following the assurance of the president of the Convention, Dr. H. B. Thomas of Santa Barbara, that the meeting would be held here, the church and citizens have been busy and plans are about consummated for the large numbers that are expected t pattend. From the church a Ways and Means Committee is appointed, having as chairman, R. D. Mattox, vice chairman, Mrs. N. Rainbow; secretary, W. A. Payne; as committee, Mesdames Lucy Archer and Virginia Williams, and Messrs. J. W. Singleton, George Hixon and I. N. Pitts. These committees form a joint committee which serves in an executive capacity and upon whom Tulare county, as well as Allensworth, depends for a proper rating in the eyes of the state. Miss Armilda Archer, secretary of the Allensworth School Alumni, has sent out a call for a reunion at the same time; also Mr. Elmer Carter, the president of the Chamber of Commerce is calling for a home-coming of former Allens-worthies. The closing exercises of the public schools will take place while the Convention is in session, and the delegates will take away the inspiration of such gatherings. Sunday, June 8, Dr. J. M. Riddle will preach the Baccalaureate sermon; a splendid exhibition of school work and handicraft will be open to the public continually; on Tuesday the Young People's chorus will lsing Manning's Cantata, "The Ressurrection"; on Wednesday will be had the annual school concert: Friday, the 13th, the Commencement exercises will be held. There will be a number of graduates. The Commencement address will be delivered by Dr. Will C. Wood, state superintendent of Public Instruction. This will be a rare opportunity for the delegates to hear this orator and scholar. Among the social affairs will be the grand reception Monday evening tendered the delegates and visitors by the Allensworth Chamber of Commerce. At this affair the keys of the community will be turned over to the Convention by the only Negro judge (incumbent) west of the Rocky Mountains. The Allena Camp Fire will hold a Council Fire Thursday, June 12; Mrs. Allensworth will tender the delegates an informal reception and welcome to the Mary Dickinson Library, the memorial established by her to the memory of her mother. A picnic will be had one day of the session, and many other pleasant affairs are under way, but not fully completed. It is desirous that the Churches, Sunday Schools, Young People's Unions, Women's Societies, etc., send to the secretary of the committee a list of delegates and be assured of accommodations early. Headquarters are already established at Hotel Allensworth and will remain open until the Convention will have adjourned and the last visitor returned home. Persons coming to the Convention will remember to first come to Hotel Allensworth and register. A committee will be present continually, and from there assignments to homes will be made. Tulare county Board of Trade will send exhibits here and delegates will have a most splendid opportunity to see what the most progressive county in the San Joaquin Valley is capable of producing.

Weatherton is president, was very successiully carried out on last Sat- urday afternoon. \ttorney Hal Pascal Peatson made the principal address, and acquitted himself nicely. It was a splendid ef- fort, and well worth while, and well Wélivered. Attorney Pearson is a Pasadena made young ‘man, having been raised and educated in Pasa- dena, being the first Negra graduate of the Pasadena High School. He al- so is a graduate of the University of Southern California Law Department. After leaving the law school he went to Chicago to practice law in the of- tice of his uncle, Attorney Thos. Pearson, where he was when the call ot his country came for service, he was placed in Co, “K,” 365th Infantry, and went to France with that regi- ment. He served honorably until their return and discharge, when he returned to Pasadena to see his aunt and cousin who reared and educated him, and-now he thinks that he will remain here and continue the practice of'law in Southern California. Attor- ney, Pearson is an excellent young man and should make good in his chosen profession. Other speakers at the celebration were, the grand-daughter of John Brown, who attends every celebra- tion of her most distinguished grand- sire: Mr. Riggs, E. L. Gaines, Rev. Mrs. Palmer, and City Commissioner J. J. Hamilton, were also speakers, all ‘of whom were well. received and heartily applauded. ir A chorus of young ladies trained by Miss Marie H. Ford sang’ patriotic andiother songs.
