Baptists Hold Forth at Aliensworth Prof. Thomas Johnson in Recital July 15th, Blanchard Hall ESTABLISHED 1879 LEADING RACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE MAIN 4485 VOLUME 33 Bap Prof. The CALIFORNIA BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION AND AUXILIAR- IES MEET AT ALLENSWORTH. Our party consisting of Dr. H. D Prowd, son and daughter. Mr. John and Miss Ellen Prowd: Mrs. Pauline Hubert and Mrs. J. B. Bass, left Los Angeles Sunday afternoon June 8th at 3:30 o'clock by auto. All Sunday afternoon, until darkness came upon the earth, we traveled through that beautiful section on the State known as the Bouquet Canyon, which was certainly an interesting experience for the "first time" traveler; especially so, for one who is literally housed in the city from year to year with scarcely a breath of real country air. We reached Gray's Place a distance of 60 miles from Los Angeles, about 8 o'clock, where we stopped for nearly 4 hours for rest, and refreshment, then proceeded on our journey but had not gone very far before on account of bad roads we began to have tire trouble; hence did not reach Bakersfield until 6 o'clock Monday morning, where we again felt greatly in need of rest and refreshment, which we thoroughly enjoyed at the hands of Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Winters. We left Bakersfield at 3:30 o'clock and drove direct to Allensworth without any further trouble, reaching there at 5:45 p.m., just at the close of the first day's session of the Convention, which was the work of the Sunday School, over which Mr. J. Allen Reese, its very efficient president, presided. Dr. Prowd and son. John, were guests of Mrs. Allensworth, and the three ladies were lodged with Mr. and Mrs. Wells. After registering at the Allensworth Hotel, where all meals were served, we retired to our several stopping places, prepared for the reception which was tendered the delegates of the Western Baptist Association Monday Evening in the Public School Building by the Chamber of Commerce. At this reception all departments of Allensworth's Civic and Religious life was represented. Prof. Payne, head of the department of Education introduced the Master of Ceremonies, Mr. Elmer C. Carter, who is president of the Chamber of Commerce. The song, "God Bless Our Boys," written, composed and contributed by our own Mrs. Mary F. Geithner was then sung, after which timely and warm welcome addresses were delivered by Mr. J.A. Hackett. Mrs. Josephine Allensworth, Miss Charlotte Rainbow and the Rev. Isaac Pearson, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Allensworth, all of which addresses were befittingly responded to by the different departments of the Convention represented. Perhaps the feature of this momentus occasion was the singing by the Allensworth School children. Tuesday morning, being very tired from our overland jaunt, we slept late, hence did not attend the morning session which was the opening session of the Baptist Young People's Union and was presided over by that man of many capabilities, Mr. S. P. Johnson. We learned however, that the feature number of this session was the President's Annual Address. The interest kindled in the morning session, was injected into the afternoon session, and interest in the timely addresses and remarks made from time to time similed. The California Eagie The climax was reached when that gospel "fire eater," the Rev. E. D. Dandridge delivered an address, the subject of which was "Getting a Vision of the Tasks of our Young People," in which he propounded not a news but a gospel, if lived up to will introduce a new condition in the Religious walk, especially for our young people. "This race of ours must attain the things attained by other races if it hopes for recognition," said the Rev Dandridge. At the session the Allepsworth Girl's Glee Club rendered special selections, and the entire session was brim full of enthusiasm. It is generally known that even though the women represent an auxiliary to the main body on the other hand they represent the prop upon which the body rests, and the cement that holds it intact. On Wednesday morning, June 11th Mrs Mary F. Gaither, president of the Women's Convention tapped gently the gavel that brought this body of tireless workers to their several poss of duty, and again it was the Convention's privilege to listen to another notable address. Among the many timely recommendations contained in Mrs. Gaither's Annual Address was the establishment of an Orphanage at Allensworth which met the approval of the Convention, and was further developed by the committee which was appointed on President's address. There were a goodly number of active women present at this Convention and already it has been recorded as one of the most helpful of the annual event staged in California. Centered about the theme, "The Need of Trained Women for Mission Work in California." Wednesday afternoon's session called forth many interesting remarks, and helpful suggestions, after which the reports of all officers, and committees showed marked improvement over anything recorded heretofore. Thursday morning. June 12th the Convention proper was called to order with President Rev. H. B. Thomas of Santa Barbara in the Chair. During this session many notable addresses were delivered among which was the theme on "Hope" by the Rev. W. H. Dickerson of Pasadena. In his handling of this very suggestive subject, the Rev. Mr. Dickerson, as it were, turned on a new ray of light on a lighted corner. His many illustrations, and comparisons were bubbling over with new ideas on an old subject. Dr. J. M. Riddle, Recording Secretary of the Convention, who is known from South to North as the master rhetorician in his usual masterly fashion told the Baptist of the State how they could make progress that would be lasting by uniting their strength. Then came Dr. H. D. Prowd upon the subject "The Relation of the Association to the Convention." His broad experience gained by travel and research in this country, Central and South America and the West India Islands makes Dr. Prowd the best prepared theologian in our midst, and we can but express our hope that the Baptist of the State who at this time are but laying their foundation for future usefulness will listen to his wise council. President H. B. Thomas launched his Annual Address by stating that he had allied every place that the denomination had to offer except the prei- San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 1919 denyance of the National Baptist Convention. Like the physician who tells his patient of a threaded disease in order that he may be healed before it is too late. Rev. Thomas told the Baptist of the State that the reason they were making such slow progress was due to the fact that they did not take proper care of the pulpit. You are wanting your emotions aroused, by loud sounding words, but you are not willing to sit quietly by and learn to live as Jesus would have you live. He also called the attention of the Convention to the fact that the late World War had brought upon the church responsibilities, that should not pass unobserved. The church must recognize competition by other denominations also, said President Thomas. If the other churches are careful as to the scholarship and moral status of their preacher then should we be content with this "wang doodling" style of preaching that should have passed out with the eradication of slavery but is still prevalent in many of our churches not far away. Rev. Thomas, as did Mrs. Gaither, recommended the establishment of an Orphanage at Allensworth. Rev. T. M. Davis of Fresno, who is to the church today what Milton was to literature in his time, was present and upon every occasion presented by opportunity added a word of comfort, advice or consolation. Other divines too numerous far to mention were present, and added their bit to the success of the Convention. Allensworth's Entertainment of the Convention. As has been stated on Monday evening Allensworth entertained the Convention with a public reception. On Wednesday evening Prof. Payne, Miss M. Prince and the School children delighted the visitors with the Cantata "Snow White" which was beautifully staged. The leading character "Snow White" was portrayed by Miss Nannie Archer, and those who had seen some of the stage's best amateur actors, pronounced Miss Archer, because of her sweet singing and artistic stage work, a coming star. In fact the School children at Allensworth in scholarship and department surpass anything in their line and grade of work we have been privileged to experience. Prof. Payne and Miss Prince are certainly demonstrating not only to the people of California, but to the country at large that Colored Teachers measure up to any other class or kind. On Friday evening the last day of the Convention the Commencement Exercise was held, and a wonderful event it was. The annual address was delivered by Mr. Wood, State Superintendent of Education. Dr. H. D. Prowd acted as Master of Ceremonies. Mrs. A. Allenworth gave the Student's Charge which was ably as well as sweetly said. Aside from these beautiful demonstrations of appreciation by the school children the citizens of Allenworth including Messrs. Hindsman and Singleton, Grocerymen; Wells, Post Master; Maddocks, Hotel Keeper; Carter, President Chamber of Commerce; Hackett, Real Estate Dealer; Mrs. Dotson, Librarian; and Mrs. Allenworth, vied in making this one of the most eventful occasions that ever shall be recorded by the Baptist Denomination in the State of California. This chapter on Allensworth shall be continued in our next issue. In order that race people all over the State may actually know what Allensworth stands for; as to her future possibilities. MORE ABOUT THAT GREAT CHAUTAUQUA. As the days go by, more and more is being said about the coming of the great Young People's Chatauqua to be held at Riverside July 1-10. Information is being asked on every hand. The Chatauqua Committee takes this method of giving out information to the numerous inquires coming in every mail. There will be a big Assembly tent where the meetings of the Chatauqua will be held. There will be small tents with two cots in each tent. For the tent and two cots a price of $4.50 is charged for 10 days use, making $2.25 for each person occupying the tent for 10 days. Three dollars for 5 days or $1.25 for each person occupying each tent. There will be a charge of $1.25 for season tickets. $1.90 for family ticket of 5 Sixty five cents for family ticket of three. Twenty five cent single admission tickets are now on sale by Mrs. A. E. Fields and Mrs. S. B. Sturckland. They will supply each Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. with such tickets as may be desired. The first three days of the Convention-Chautauqua will be held in the Park Ave. Baptist Church of which the Rev. W. H. Rozier is pastor. The delegates to the Convention will be cared for the first three days by this Church Great preparations are being made by the Park Ave. S. S. and B. Y. P. U. to entertain the Convention. **MAKE RESERVATIONS FOR YOUR TENTS AND COTS AT ONCE.** COMING OF DR. E. W. MOORE Dr. E. W. Moore a man of experience, of wisdom, and of learning, who for a number of years has served the Baptist Denomination faithfully, and with credit, and distinction, a man who has given his life for the uplift of his race and people, and who today is the President of the National Equal Rights League, has been called to our White brethren of the North from his excellent charge at Columbus. Ohio; to be their agent in looking after the interests of Negro Baptists throughout the various States. He is now in our city gathering and sifting information about our churches and general work preparatory to a meeting with our Executive Board. We ask all the churches and pastors to give him the open door, the open car, and the open heart, so that the good intentions of our White brethren toward our people and our work may not at this time, as in the past, be fruitless. We need and should welcome with grateful hearts the extended helping hand. On Dr. Moore's behalf it is hoped that his work here will justify the reposed confidence and expectation of our white brethren whose great object is that of the moral as well as spiritual uplift of our people. H. DARIUS PROWD, Moderator Western Baptist Association, June 18, 1919. THE CHURCH OF THE NATIONAL SCHOOL OF CHRISTIANITY Don't fail to hear the Pipe Organ genius, Henry Clay Bell of Portland. Ore.. in the Bower's Recital, Tuesday, June 24th at 8:30 p.m., Wesley M. E. Church—Admission Free—Silver Offering. THE NEW ST. PAUL BAPTIST INSTITUTIONAL CHURCH Corner 21st St. and Naomi Ave. Rev. R. N. Holt, D. D., Pastor. Things are going well at St. Paul yet. Last Sunday found the house packed with strangers and many anx- ious to hear the message from God by pastor Holt who has endeared himself into the hearts of all who know him. Pastor Holt preached from the text, "If I forget thee O Jerusalem let my right arm forget her cunning"—Subject, Constancy of God's saints amid the clash of creeds and the war of nations. This will ever rest with those who heard pastor Holt in this special effort. The young people were entertained at evening luncheon by Bro. Jas. Perry, ex-president of the B. Y. P. U. The day closed with a gleaning of $111.65 and four additions to the church. We are pleased to call attention to the fact that God has blessed our efforts in these two years under the leadership of Pastor Holt. When we, by the direction of the Holy Ghost, called Rev. Holt to our church some two years ago, the outlook for St. Paul was less than inviting. Our membership was less than 50; our church more than $700 in debt; lost confidence and apparently no one cared for "The Little Church" on 23rd Street. But it is gratifying to note that in less than six months after pastor Holt came to us, the entire debt was paid in full and our membership was steadily increasing until today more than three hundred claim membership with us and a --- bright future now dawns before us. Not being satisfied with our small quarters, pastor Holt set to work to secure other grounds upon which to build a greater St. Paul. He succeeded in securing a lot ajacent to the present plant and was making rapid payments on same expecting to begin-building a church creditable to the race and denomination. In the mean time, the keen vision of Pastor Holt found it possible to open negotiation with the directors of the Naomi Avenue, Christian Church on the Corner of Naomi Avenue and 21st Street, some time in January, 1919. Not being able to reach a definite conclusion in this matter by reason of the unwillingness of the Naomi Church to transfer the property, the matter for the time being was called off, but Pastor Holt, guided by the Holy Ghost awaited in prayer, not even making known his plans to his official board, leaving a special request in the hands of the trustee board of the Naomi Avenue Christian Church, went home and awaited the orders from God. The day came, and it was then that Pastor Holt called his people together and set in motion the plan which resulted in securing the aboveplace, which is a credit to the race and denomination. The original St. Paul property was sold at a price of $3,500.00, exclusive of equipments. The price paid for the Naomi Avenue Christian Church is $12,000.00; of this amount we are able to pay $4,500.00 leaving a balance of $7,600.00 with ten years' time in which to pay all. Our doors will ever be open to the public irrespective of race or kin. The community shall have our attention and the poor will find help and comfort. It is Pastor Holt's plan to establish institutional work in connection as well as giving special attention to departmental work. In fact, the program as given in the New Testament will be carried out. You shall have the Gospel as Jesus has ordered it, you shall have freedom of conscience and freedom of speech so long as these are under the direction of the Holy Ghost and in keeping with the N. T. order. We must say, that in Pastor Holt, we have found more than we least expected. His unassuming manner, his friendly and lovable disposition places him in easy reach of the most which is low. He has proven him- Mme. Hattie E. Norwood will be soloist at the Bower's Recital, June 24th at Wesley M. E. Church. --- THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT. ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 19 At Allens- worth nard Hall REAR MYRTLE ANDERSON, THE GIRL ORATOR, AT FIRST METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH, COR. 6TH AND HILL, JULY 1ST. self a man and a preacher of no mean ability, a pastor of rare skill and endowed with ability to lead men. His life among us has won for him a lasting place in the affection of all who attend our services. Not until he had proven his ability among us, did we know of his commendable record in other fields. He now pastors people in California whom he pastored in other states and these give a glowing account of his work in other days. That he is a busy man is evidenced from the fact that for 18 years he has held good pastorates, taught in grammar grades and high schools, was contractor and builder doing work in both wood and stone. Took course of Law from University of Chicago, not feeling satisfied to enter the law field, he gave some time to Medicine which he abandoned to give more study to the ministry. Holding papers of credit, and having given proof of moral fitness and ability to expound the Gospel truth in its purity, and being worthy of the study and training prescribed, the Conroe Baptist College of Conroe, Texas, conferred upon him the Degree of Doctor of Divinity some nine years ago. He holds "Live certificates" from One of Los Angeles' best soprano soloists will sing in the Bower's Recital. the State of Oklahoma. entitling him to teach in schools of that State. He has taught by both precepts and examples. He has been so favored in the business world that his rating places him above the tide of dependency, and his pastorate shares equally the financial responsibility of his church. Finally, his highly respected family his patient and lovable wife has contributed much to his success as pastor and teacher. Her hands are ever ready to take hold of any task looking to the uplife of masses. We hope to enter our new quarters on the First Sunday in July at which time we hope to have the presence of all who wish us well. You will find further announcement in program. Meet us at St. Paul these next few Sundays and go with us to our new home. God bless all who strive and may heaven attend all who wish us well.—Reporter. At a meeting held in New York City on Monday, June the 9th, Attorney E. Burton Ceruti was unanimously elected a member of the National Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. This is the first time in the history of the Association that the great West has been represented on the Board and Attorney Ceruti's selection as National Director is a recognition of the principle that the West must be accounted a factor in all phases of our National life and activities.

Washington, Pastor | ——— ss The past Sunday was a day of gos- pel feasting for the worshippers and friends at Bethel. The interest mant- fected in the Sunday School is mar velous; adults 3 well as children are attending in large numbers. At the morning hour the pastor iteltvered a |wouderfal sermon, Text—2 Kings 4: 40. The principal thought was, “O thou man of God, there }s death in the pot.’ The message was indeed divine. Loth young and old were electrified as the power and mani- festation of the Holy Spirit was so }wondertully made known. . There is desth in the pot allaround us; death in the Theological pot. The churches ot today are carrying almost every ‘worldly Seg aEets: lying lying preachéls, whiskey-drinking deacons, dancing and card-pluying members are death to the elturch. The Christian world today ts'a mass ‘of confusion, creeds and denomina- ‘ions are !mpediments to the progress lof righteousness. May God Basten ‘the day when they will be cast into the sea of oblivion, and the church like Christ, become universal. For these creeds and isms are man-made and do not and cannot come up to the most Holy standard. At this service ore accession was made and one buld- ly came forward and acknowledged the abiding comforter In her life. At 3 p. m. we were favored with a ser- mon from Rev. W. H. Rozier of Pleasant Hill Baptist Church, Text— ‘Matt. 5:6—"Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteous- ness, for they shall be filled.” The message was indeed soul-stirring and edifying. At 8 p. m. the pastor de- livered another inspired and search- ing message to a. well filled house. Don't fail to hear this God-fearing man who preaches the gospel undul- terated and compromises with 20 sin. Songs of Zion by the Choir that are always pleasing. Next week's services as usual. All are cordially ‘invited to all services. PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT | CRURCH OF CHRIST Cor. 19th and Paloma Ave. Rev. N. P. Greggs, Pastor. Sunday was a day of no little re- joicing for God's presence was sure- ly felt by all present. * The seripture was read’by Mr. E. Kaigier. ‘Fhe ‘text for tie moring was, “Four Shots at the Evening.” taken from St. Matthew 5:44. Rev. Greggs in his most eloguent deltvery explained how animals fight ‘their enemies. Man has so much animal im him that he too fights his enemfes, and has the' same revengeful spirit. Giving out the spirit of hatred is the devil's own doings. Hatred begets hatred. ‘That spirit of hatred and de- termjnation-to‘get rid of your | ene- mies. will destroy you. The trouble with the world is the people are striv- ing im the wrong directton-to get rid of enemiggs: The. meek and: lowly Son of God invented the only auto- matic to destroy énemies with. Jesus has declared that four shots shall destroy all enemies. The‘first bullet shall be that ‘9f!Loye.. Logd . your gun with ‘love, meet your enemies with a heart full of compassion, and a face fall of smies. Enemiga can never be destroyed by hatred—hit with'love.. Let the second shot be-to bless yqur enemies. ° If they.: curse you, don’t curse them back, but bless them instead. For the third shot do good to them tifat hate you, ' and fourth, go off and-pray for them that spite you. So touching and true was this sermon that 7 people were in- spired to connect themselves with this brand of'the Christign army. * In the evening the subject. speken on by our able pastor was, “The val- ue of good company.”’-tsken from the book of Numbers 10::-29 Rey. Gregg explained'in this sermon that all men are traveling; The Christians are trav- eling. to perpetual heights and not the material. Christians are not con- temt to traxel alone, but want others to go with them.’ Their cry’ is come and go With’ us ‘and we will do you good.” God, bus decreed that all men must £0, pnd the question.we must ask ourselves is, where must.

C. A. SPEAR Managing Editor ODD FELLOWS TO THE FORE FRONT GRAND MASTER J. B. BASS ON LAST LAP OF HIS ANNUAL VISIT'S That the G. U. O. of O. F. are keeping pace with the mighty march of progress is abundantly evidenced in the material growth of the order and tehir efforts to demonstrate for not only their interest in a fraternal way but for the general upift of the various communities in which they are located as well. Grand-Master J. B. Bass has just returned from a visit to the various Lodges in Southern California and reports PROGRESS all along the line, he will leave July 1st for a visit to Lodges at Bakersfield, Hanford, Fowler, Stockton, San Jose, San Francisco and Oakland, which will complete the circuit for the present year. Lodges of Southern California. At Monrovia: This Lodge which was organized a little more than one year ago has witnessed a marvelous progress, they have increased their membership more than 50 per cent, with the very best citizens of that community, and a visit to this small town will reveal the fact that Monrovia Lodge in attendance, measures up with almost any other lodge in the district. W. D. Hollins is the N. C. W. E. Lockett the Secretary. This Lodge is already planning the purchase of ground on which to erect their own building. Tranquil Lodge: - This Lodge is located at Watts and it has indeed made a valiant fight against great odds and is now moving along at a most lively gait, only at their last meeting they initiated quite a class of new members. This Lodge in conjunction with the Household at Watts is planning to erect their own Hall. W. Allen is the N. G. R. Owens the P. S. San Bernardino Lodge: - This Lodge which was formerly located at Redlands has recently moved to San Bernardino, has been revived most wonderfully, and is now adding new members to the ranks. J. Beal is the N. G. and G. Shipp the P. S. Magnolia Lodge: Located at Riverside is certainly keeping step with the march of progress and increasing its membership. One remarkable coincident of this Lodge is the fact that with a membership of near forty every member owns his own home, this gives an insight as to the makeup of this Lodge. Mr. Reggan is the N. G. and Geo. B. Gordon the secretary, while the only and unimitable H. B. Gordon is a strong spoke in the wheel. Los Angeles Lodge: This is the mother Lodge of this section, from it all other lodges sprang. It is the wealthiest Lodge of the district, it's holdings are estimated to be worth at a conservative estimate $75,000.00, the membership consists of the sturdy pioneers of this section, and right well has their vision been exemplified: this Lodge is not resting on its oars, but is lining up for real progress, and bids fair to keep pace with the times by the continued acquisition of new blood into the ranks. Sterling Light Lodge: Is composed of a faithful band who will no doubt come to the forefront in the march of progress some of our best citizens are members of this Lodge and they will not for one moment be satisfied to be in the rear ranks when it comes to real progress, they have recently added new members and expect to continue to do so. Golden Rule Lodge: This Lodge is the sensation of the year and has increased it's membership more than fifty per cent, and at every meeting they are initiating many new members, the rallying cry of this lodge is PROGRESS the members of this body say keep your eye on us and watch us grow. And this in brief is the result of the visits to the Lodges named, all in the Southern end of the State, save and except Pasadena which will be reported at a later date. COLEMAN IS STIRRING UP THE ANIMALS FOR THE COMING ELECTION AT THE FORUM It things coincide at the coming of an at the Forum on the last Saturday in this month. It will not be the fault of the Only, the unimitable W. Coleman the employment King; for he is known that Coleman is not ```markdown ``` ting "PEP" in great big letters into the affair. He is an announced candidate for the presidency of this far famed body, every since the memory of man runneth not to the contrary, he has made the effort, to land this distinguished honor, and there are those who say that he will yet bring home the bacon. One thing certain and sure no man can say that Coleman is a quitter, and if he wins or loses, he always comes up smiling for the next time. The Line Up For Election Day. It is generally taken for granted that the present incumbent W. Olliver will not be a candidate for reelection, also that there are two announced candidates in the persons of J. W. Coleman and T. J. Norris. Norris it is said claims the right of succession, which is a promotion from the vice presidency, and points to Olliver and says do likewise unto me. Coleman claims himself 99 per cent efficient and asks a chance to demonstrate, so there you are. There are dark horses galore being mentioned and among them are such names as C. H. Woods, F. M. Roberts, Wm. Stokes, John Scott and others. But at this writing it seems to be Coleman against the field. Then there are those who are demanding a big field from which to choose a president and they are urging various persons to allow their names to be submitted, and let the people decide as to which one will get the majority vote, and say that in this way there will be no sore spots, they propose to allow no one nominated to decline to run, and then let the best runner up win. Sunday is the last day on which members can register and the following Sunday is the election. RESIGNS AS PRESIDENT OF THE DEMOCRACY FILM CORPORATION. T.

Phone 333-J Continued on page 6 It might-be well to pause here for a moment and realize what the strength of the Negro Musician in the United States is. I shall consider here only the musicians of pational reputation and can give a very incomplete list, but it will suffice at least to give an idea of who and what they are. The race is strongest in singers and has among the women: Sopranos—Azalia Hackley; Jones (Black Patti); Selkla; Anita Patti Brown; Florence Cole Talbert; Cleota Collins; Maude Roberts; Annis Hackley; Willa Sloan; Reba Fairfax; Lula Robinson Jones; Abbie Mitchell; numerous others. Contraltos—Daisy Tapley, of New York and a few others whom I do not recall at this moment. Among the men there are: Tenors—Roland W. Hayes; William Hackney W; Harold Browning; Noble Sissle; Baritones—Harry Burleigh; Wm. H. Richardson; Creighton Thompson; J. Rosamond Johnson, etc. Planists include—Augustus Lawson; Carl Dilton; Roy Tibbs; Hazel Harrison; Helen Hagan; Nathaniel Dett; Ethel Richardson and Maud Cuney Hare. Violinists—White; Douglas, Craig; Weir and Cook. Among the composers there are Burleigh; Johnson; Cook; Europe; Tyers; Charlton; Dett; Diton; White and scores of others. Then there are organists, Gefflists and performers on various orchestral instruments. Truly the race has done something in the field of music and it is still marching onward to greater achievements. In the course of study mapped out for the National Federation of Music Clubs there is included a group of Negro spirituals and "Exhortations" by Will Marlon Cook. Roland W. Hayes the well known tenor gave a joint recital with Mrs. Ethel Hardy Smith, soprano, at Boston recently. Critics were very profuse in their praise of Mr. Hayes and to quote one: "He is a highly gifted, indeed a great vocal artist, who asks no favor on account of his color." Here are a few questions to which it would be wise to pay attention: Why do colored audiences applaud and burst into laughter at the man who comes out to raise and lower the plano lid between certain parts of the programme? There is nothing amusing in that and it shows lack-of taste and refinement. Why do people persist in coming late and insist upon being seated during the rendition of a number? That is impolite and disturbs both the performers and the audience. Why do people wear evening clothes to a public recital? They are not social affairs. The day of evening clothes at the theater even is past and Grand Opera is the only public attraction of today that still clings to the old custom. SANTA MONICA, CA. THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Res.

Also not alone has he been content to succeed himself, he has not shied at the responsibilities of citizenship or racial progress. He has rolled up his sleeves and become a part and parcel of the people and their organizations and not a figurehead, but a worker. He is a prominent member of the Baptist Connection and a hustler in the G. U. O. of O. F. of which Order he is their official examining physician.

Tarleton's suite of offices in the Germain building, by the throng of patients who had their turn, before it was possible for the busy doctor to see us; but on inquiry we found out 7—that the Doctors practise has reached that proportion wherein he is just about conducting a hospital right in his own offices; several near major operations last week and more on for this week kept both Dr. Tarleton and his assistants busy every minute of the time.

Eagle spends afternoon at the Woods "And what is so rare as a day in June Then if ever come Perfect days" and one of those spent at the Woods! "And what is so rare as a day in June Then if ever come Perfect days"— and one of those spent at the Woods! Wednesday all day Mrs. John Woods and daughter, Velma, were indeed in a very pleasant and receptive mood. So Wednesday afternoon the Allensworth Literary and Industrial Club availed themselves of partaking of their hospitality by holding their meeting at their beautiful home on Clarenda St. Hardly had the clatter of dishes from their feasting, died down nor the tread of departing footsteps before hard on and eager for the sport of Croquet Playing came the Eagle Staff—screaming with the joy of an afternoon of freedom. An afternoon of zestful, wholesome sport played with the enthusiasm of real sports on the Croquet links of the Woods. Every member of the local staff with the exception of the editor was present. None of the Englets are flapping their wings over excessive victory today. Truth is sports of the great outdoors is a foreign but much longed-for subject for them. Mrs. Woods and Miss Velma proved themselves unexcelled hostesses on the occasion. Not only every comfort and pleasure was provided the guests, but such a feast—delicious indeed was the salad, sandwiches, ice cream, cake and punch. After playing on the links until the sun drew its rays unto itself and the twilight exchanged its light for darkness, the guests including besides the Eagle staff Mr. and Mrs. Stacher, repaired to the parlor and music furnished by Mrs. Woods and Miss Velma brought the evening to a befitting and delightful end; such was a day—a day in June at the Woods. Rev. H. D. Prowd, Mr. S. P. Johnson, Mrs. Pauline Hubert and Mr. John E. Prowd were delegates to the Baptist Convention last week. D. G. M., J. B.

At The Parsonage—1406 Griffith Avenue Everybody Welcome The Exchange held under the auspices of the Federation of Colored Women's Clubs at the Independent Church last week was a grand success from every angle. Especially war the Baby Show and play of "How the Club was Formed," under the direction of Mrs. Lulu Bates Ryan of Pasadena, worth mentioning.

Watson) After thoroughly explaining all the hows and wherefores and everything except "how to get the mazumma," Mr. _____, very indignantly asks why the Western Federation of Tennis Clubs does not put the O. K. upon Eddie Harris as well as Ballinger Kemp and hire a Pullman and other elaborate facilities and shanghai them to New York. Finl—But will some kind hearted person hold the smelling salts while we inject this answer into the dear brother's system? There are just two hundred and twenty-five silver or green back reasons (take your choice) why no one will be allowed to share the "boratone king's" berth, or hear him drink his soup on the way to gotham. Yes and flock of other reasons. Listen—as yet no one has even accused any of the several clubs of over-subscribing its quota in the tennis-players-to New-York Drive Fund Campaign, nor has Kemp been assured that he will not count many a cross-tie before he sees the statue of Liberty. "Decorate the mahogany kid," and not only Kemp and Harris, but Mrs. Henry Young and Fern Caldwell will lisa be permitted to look 'em over at Coney Isle this Summer.

Every father and mother should be interested in the future of their boys and girls. Every man or woman in his or her future. All should be interested in the future of the Colored Race. Today the Moving picture Business Ranks Fifth Among Great Profit-sharing Industries of the World. Fear or Favor tells us that the "Birth of a Nation" returned 3000 per cent on the investment; "Neptune's Daughter," by Captain Leslie T. Peacock, returned 1200 per cent; "Civilization," 300 per cent; "Traffic in Souls," 600 per cent; "The Million Dollar Mystery," 600 per cent. If Democracy nets as much as "The Birth of a Nation," every $100 invested will return $3,000; every $1,000 will return $30,000. 12,000,000 negroes in the United States. It is safe to estimate 5,000,000 Colored People will see Democracy's "Injustice" in the course of a year. Any old picture these days and times will average 10c a person. Therefore, we feel that Democracy will return $500,000 from the negro people alone. After making a ridiculous allowance for expenses, we find $250,000 net profit. THERE ARE NEARLY 500 SHOW HOUSES THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES OWNED OR CONTROLLED BY JEWISH PEOPLE WHO CATER ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY TO COLORED PEOPLE AND ARE WAITING TO GET "INJUSTICE" AND ALL DEMOCRACY PRODUCTIONS. duce. The La Fayette Theatre in New York which features negro actors and actresses in drama, will take, all that Democracy can pro Are we going to stand idly by, condemn and ridicule each other while this great opportunity stands knocking at our door? We can create the largest industry in the world for our people, the Colored Race, right here in Los Angeles----if only we will. Our Daughters can become Stars receiving hundreds of dollars weekly. Our Young Men likewise We can have a Democracy City equal to Universal City working the year round. Some have been bold enough to say that to allow our young girls to enter into moving picture work is only creating an avenue which will lead our girls to become prostitutes. Because all of the white actresses, including stars, who work in pictures are nothing but prostitutes. We are not consistent in our theory because some of the very people who make these remarks are permitting their daughters to be scrub-girls and do other menial work in the very homes of the white actresses whom they condemn. God grant the day will come when we will look upon enterprises from a broader scope. And instead of severe criticism and being content to sit idly by, why not try and right these things by creating better opportunities for our people, by co-operating with our intelligence and money. We are too prone to inject the bad side into everything. Our young women do not necessarily have to follow the footsteps of white moving picture stars in their wrong doings. And we cast an awful reflection of mistrust upon our young women when we make those remarks. To succeed as a people, we must have wealth collectively. Spread propaganda throughout the world, which will offset the evil propaganda having been spread during the great European War. We must keep before the world the loyalty of the negro to the United States at all times. Others have painted him badly enough, we must show the negro at his best, his good traits. Democracy will do these things, but not without our moral and financial support. Let us prove true to ourselves, our fellow man and our God. When we find we haven't something good to say——then let us say nothing. The fellow who makes himself a stumbling block, generally finds himself nowhere when the final end comes. If Democracy isn't what it should be, if the directors aren't whom they should be; then let us put our money info it the same as they have done, creating for ourselves a voice powerful enough to make it what it should be. Money talks, it is a power, it rules the world. More than 18,000 shares sold. Less than 12,000 to be sold. Stock that you buy now will participate in this corporation for fifty years.

"Injustice" will be ready for the screen some time in JULY. It will be shown in one of the big downtown theaters. Then other pictures will be made from month to month, showing the Educa tional and Commercial side of the Colored American's life. DO YOU KNOW THAT "INJUSTICE" WHEN SHOWN ON THE SCREEN WILL BRING SYMPATHY FOR THE RACE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD? DO YOU KNOW THAT THIS PICTURE WILL SHOW THE LONAL SPIRIT OF THE AMERICAN NEGRO DURING THE WORLD WAR?
