Caesar Johnson 15 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. S. P. Johnson, who mediged by drowning Monday, July 21st at Sycamore Grove was buried Monday, July 28th. The funeral service was held at the Second Baptist, Caesar's Church home, and the pastor, Dr. H. D. Prowd, officiated. Taking Dr his text the latter part of the 29th verse of the 12th Chapter of Second Samuel, Dr. Prowd painted a beautiful picture showing how God had dealt with David in that ancient period when he had taken his greatly beloved infant son. The principal of the 7th Street School was also present and spoke glowingly of Caesar's intelligence, and capabilities, naming him one of the most desirable students in his school. Others who participated in the funeral service was a timely obituary by Rev. Greggs, resolutions from the Sunday School of the Church, by E. Summer and resolutions from his class by Mrs. Pollard; also Mrs. Jackson rendered a beautiful solo. Caesar was librarian of the Second Baptist Sunday School and also one of his most cherished pupils. Miss Elfen Prowd thoughtfully arranged three timely songs for the solenion service. The funeral offerings were beautiful and prefuse. Connor of Johnson & Connor deserve credit for the splendid funeral arrangement. TWO SENTENCED FOR LYNCHING Alabama Court Records First Conviction of Kind in State's When a mob broke into the jail at Minette, Alabama, and shot to death Frank Foukal, who was being held on a charge of murder, the local authorities immediately held those responsible for the killing. Thirty persons were arrested; two were given sentences in the penitentiary, and twenty-eight were given chain-gang sentences. But listen! Foukal was a white man and he had been accused of murdering a white man. Thus the cel- San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 2, 1919 THE OLDEST LARGEST AND LOS ANGELES, me on of C erity in bringing to the bar of justice the violators of the "majesty of the law in Alabama." For one thing it has made patent that the old cry of "it is an impossibility to apprehend and convict men of such offences," is a myth and has been a cloak under which the cowardly officers of the law have been hiding whenever public opinion has demanded that they do their duty. It required the lynching of a white man—and an alien enemy at that—to cause the Chief Executive of the Nation to make his little speech denouncing lynching. Almost to a man, every Negro threw up his hat in the air and exclaimed, "Long live Wilson!" Since that time Negroes have been frequently lynched—some of them still wearing the uniform in which they fought to "make the world safe for Democracy," but there was not one word of protest from the President in the big White House at the end of Pennsylvania avenue. We have been thoroughly convinced that when the President speaks for the self determination of peoples, that he does not wear his every-day glasses. The darker races are not in his mind. Neither was the Negro in his mind when he did manage to protest against he activities of the mob. When the mob shot to death Foukal—a white man—the Governor of the State did not have to spur the local officials on to do their duty. Oh!! The majesty of the law had been transgressed, and the men who had dared to violate it by putting to death a white man must feel the severity of its majesty. It's dollars to the hole in the doughnut (1 beg pardon for the expression) that the next Negro lynched by the "gentlemen of Alabama" they will not even disguise themselves, and that neither the Governor or the local authorities will make more than a cursory effort, if even that, to apprehend the participants. It will be that the "affair was pulled of quietly by the best residents of the community." There is only one thing that is going to put the fear of the law into the hearts of the cowardly Negro baiters, and that is a drastic Federal law that carries with it capital punishment for the crime. We believe that such a law enforced by fearless men in the Federal service would soon put a stop to lynchers and lynching. An official who can ferret out the culprits that lynch a white man, can do the same thing when a mob of white men hold a lynching orgie over a black man. Every person who has the least intelligence knows that the cry of the authorities of their inability to convict men of such an offence, was a lie without mitigation, and how the public has stood for it so long is one of the mysteries of life. But at last the inevitable has happened; they have shown that not only are they able to apprehend but also able to convict, and punish. If they are able to convict and punish in Alabama, they are able so to do in any State where the crime prevails. Let's dig down a little deeper in our pockets for the anti-lynching fund; let us be just a mite more enthusiastic—the enthusiasm that carries the dollar with it—and we will soon have "Old Judge Lynch" tottering, and finally, falling from his throne. Just to think, if one-third of us would give the insignificant sum of one dollar, what a fight we could put ```markdown ``` THE LEADING URDAY, AUGUST 11 U. C.

And there is not many Negroes in this United States who would not give a dollar to save a life. Then why do we hesitate when not only a life but our racial honor is at stake? It is said by some of the elderly persons among us that there is not the homegenicity among us that existed during the days of their bondage. There should be: we have just as much and more to fight for, then it behooves us to strike blows that will tell: we have got to show the fighting heart—the heart to fight for ourselves as well as the heart to fight for others—before we can command the sympathy or ask the assistance of others. In other words; we can only succeed in our demands for equal citizenship by making strenuous efforts in our own behalf.

This is indeed a rare treat as Prof. Jackson is the peer of all musical directors in the entire country. The citizens of Los Angeles will therefore be enabled to witness one of the greatest musical feasts that it has ever been their pleasure to see and hear. Be sure and procure your tickets, as it is estimated Wesley Chapel with its 1100 seating capacity will hardly suffice to hold the mighty concourse of people on this occasion.

Sledge, as partner, has opened offices at 1541 Central Avenue, and propose to lend their every effort to the securing of proper homes for members of the race in this rapidly growing city. Los Angeles like New York, Chicago and other large cities is cosmopolitan in spirit, henie it is necessary that the housing condition for race people should be carefully considered. Only men with soul interest should enter this walk, and that is why we recommend Groves and Sledge at this time, because we believe that they will give conscientious service. They are both Christian gentlemen affiliating not only with church fraternal organizations but any and all race enterprises.

Wheaton) It is stipulated in the covenant of the League of Nations, that those people who show a backwardness in self government, or who lack those principles which are essential to the progress of democratic civilization, shall be placed under a mandatory until such time as they (as a people) shall have become fully competent to join the progressive governments of the world. Now, for instance if some Armenian should in his far off home be able to read the happenings which are recorded from day to day in the press of the United States. He is attracted with something like this in big head lines: "A Negro in Texas Lynched by a Mob." Then he reads on down the column and is informed that the victim was bound to an iron stake which was driven into the earth, that his body was saturated with 611, fagots were piled about him, and a torch applied to the mass, that irons were heated and thrust down his throat and gouged into his eyes, and when life had fled from the charred body cooked parts were sought for eagerly by the crowd for sueuvenirs. The report reads that even women and small children were enthusiastic witnesses of the orgle. In another account he would read that women and children of that same race (Negroes) meet horrible deaths at the hands of the people of this, and other localities, of which he has no adequate geographical knowledge. When he reads of a woman being killed in a hideous manner and her unborn offspring ground into the dirt under the heels of her players, he stops to think and wonder. Where can such brutality exist? The life commences to review the terrible experiences of his own race. His reflections would doubtless be something like this: "Yes, the Turks have misused us terribly; they have THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP—NO MAN DOWN. NUMBER 25 O.F. Elect Officers put us to death by the sword; they have violated our women, and wronged us in countless ways, but through it all I cannot recall, such barbarous acts as these I have just read." Then, perhaps he will go to the nearest Christian missionary school in a search for the location of such places as Texas, Georgia, Aalabama, Mississippi, and other names that have attracted his attention. He enlists the aid of the missionary to aid him in locating the places. He is returned to the map of North America, surprised he begins his search. It was hard to think that those actions could have occurred in North America. He thought that all were civilized there, it must be some out of the way place. He begins to trace out the group, and finds that they are all in the boundary of the United States. Would you blame him if a gulp came into his throat? For years he looked to that big nation as the one tinging standing between him and the attrigues of the Turk. He had come to look upon that big nation as one in which every Christian attribute ablided, and he had welcomed the suggestion that the great United States acts as the protector of Armenia. But, yes, here it was before his eyes, those places had been guilty of the deeds printed in the papers for the papers were from that country. Then he would ponder again and probably muse something like this: "Yes, the Turks kill, but not in such a horrible way; they violate our women but not under such revolting conditions." And when he had digested his thoughts the conclusion would be that the inhabitants of those portions of America were themselves in need of a Mandatory, because they in no sense represented the progressive people and were incapable of self-government because of their savagery.

CHURCH OF CHRIST Ave., First A. M. E. Church. "Last Communion Day" serv Cor. 18th and Paloma Sts. Rev. N. P. Greggs, Pastor. Both services held at this Church last Sunday were as usual impressive and soul stirring. The text used by our able pastor, Rev. Greggs, was 1st Epistle of St. John 5:4. "This is the victory that overcometh the world, even our Faith." The reason this text is so popular with Christians is because the hero never lost a battle. Christians are striving to overcome the world, while the world is also trying to overcome them. Many things in this world are evil, but the ideal man must rise above his environment, his surroundings; he must master the force of this world and rise above these things. But to do this he must trust in God and have Faith. There is in man an inborn desire to rise, and better himself; an impelling power to rule and conquer environments. A real man is not merely a man in form but a Christian who subdues and overcomes the world with the great weapon, Faith. The victory over this world lies in overcoming it. Through Faith everything is accomplished. Faith not only will help man to conquer his environments and rise above them but will lift him out of sin, sorrow and crime. In the evening Bro. Johnson delivered the sermon, which was indeed Psalms 118:8. In his spiritual message he impressed upon the congregation the importance of trusting in God rather than putting too much confidence in man. Eight persons united themselves with this Church during the day an done last Thursday evening at the services held at Rev. Bean's Church, which was indeed a success. Collection for the day was $78.69. MACEDONIA BAPSTIST CHURCH— Watts, California. Rev. J. A. Flemming, Pastor. We had with us Wednesday evening during our prayer meeting, Ewangelist Staunton of Greenville, Miss., who brought us a short but uplifting and inspiring message from our Savior. The last Sunday in July left us rejoicing in the Lord. Our Sunday School lesson, "Christian Fellowship," was a most interesting topic, besides being the most vitally important subject in the course and which taught us to be content with what we have, let it be much or little. Our historian gave us a vivid description of Paul's voyage to Rome. At 11 o'clock Rev. J. A. Williams of Oklahoma, Field Secretary of the National Relief and Benefit Society for the aged Baptists, preached to us after having outlined the object of his visit. He said in part: "This society should be in every Church and community, as it cares for the old worn out Church." He then took his text from Matt. 19:21. Subject, "Sell The Missionary Society met at 4 o'clock and made arrangements for an entertainment to be given Friday night. The B. Y. P. U. was well attended. The subject of the lesson was, "John's Testimony to Jesus," John 1:29, and the many reasons why we testify for Jesus today were brought out in the discourse of the lesson. Our pastor preached in the evening to a large congregation, many strangers and others being present. FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH NOTES 8th and Towne Aye. Rev. J. Logan Craw, Pastor. "Woman's Day" in Fourth Anniversary services were regularly observed the past Sabbath with the most unparalleled results ever achieved. The pastor delivered the annual sermon, and there were two accessions to the Church membership. The Mite Missionary ladies turned out in a body and presented a beautiful Dorcas-like appearance. Both choirs sang charmingly. At night, under the direction of Mrs. Lillian J. Craw, President of the W. M. M. Society, the program rendered by the talented group of "Young and Grown-Up People" was a feature neve before presented on the Golden Coast, and was received by the thronging congregation with amazing praise and rapturous commendation. Each participant is deserving of special congratulations. Sister Ella Fisher because of her multiplicity of "Talents" will receive "The Encyclopedia of African Methodism," and Sister Ellen Ross, whose "Talents" were also most abundant, will be given a year's subscription to "The Voice of Missions." Many distinguished visitors were present and made known their delight and benefits of this glorious day's worship. You are always welcome to the services of Historic 8th and Towne THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Ave., First A. M. B. Church.

Every member is urged to be present and share in this sacrificial feast. "Dollar Money" funds and "Connectional Claims" will be made special aims in our blessed Redeemer's name. Come cognizant of the truth that "God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love, which ye have showed toward His name, in that ye have ministered to the Saints, and do minister."

Contributions from friends will be greatly received. WARD CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH 1834 Channing St. Rev. J. W. Price, Pastor. Sunday, August 3rd, the Holy Communion will be administered. All members and friends are requested to be present at each service. The second Sunday will be our Educational Day. The committee appointed is preparing for a splendid service on this occasion. Each member and friend is requested to contribute one dollar during the day, thereby assuring success. Usual services Sunday during the day. PHILLIPS CHAPEL C. M. E. CHURCH— Rev. J. C. Anderson, Pastor. Sunday was a great day at this fast growing, progressive Church. The pastor preached at both the morning and evening services, and the Holy Spirit was present in demonstration and power. Two splendid congregations listened to the stirring messages delivered by the pastor. Accessions are continually being made to the membership of this Church, and there is rarely a service that some one does not unite with the Church. Sunday promises to be another great day here. Being the first Sunday in August, it is the regular monthly Communion service, and the pastor and officers are expecting the members out in force. Rev. R. N. Holt of St. Paul Baptist Church and his chair and people will worship with us in the afternoon service. The offering at this service will go to help swell the "Out of Debt" rally fund. The grand rally will be held on the second Sunday in August. The Church is working as never before to make this the banner financial effort in the life of this Church. 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. BETHEL CHURCH OF CHRIST— Hooper Ave. and East Adams. Elder Wm. A. Washington, Pastor The past Sunday was a joyful day for the worshippers and friends of Bethel. Sunday School was well attended and an interesting session. At the morning service Elder D. Boswell preached an excellent sermon. Text: Luke 14:16-23. The message was indeed helpful and edifying. The principal thought was, "Come, for all things are now ready." The invitation is extended to all, regardless of your state of being. The people were truly admonished for making so many filmsy excites. When none will be accepted before God, go out quickly into the street and lanes of the city and bring hither the poor, the maimed, the halt and the blind. Go out into the highways and hedges and compel them to come in that My house may be filled. Compel them, how? not by coercion, but by walking uprightly and working righteousness and speaking the truth in your hearts and by having your garments washed clean and helping yourself uprooted from the world. By so doing, your light will compel, the unrighteous man or woman to regain and say, surely, surely, there is a reality in serving a true God. At 8 p.m. he preached another wonderful sermon. Text: John 10:1-3. The message was truly divine, plain and BIRCH ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH—1400 East Birch Street. On last Lord's Day we were all blessed. The Lord was with us and our attendance was good both morning and evening. Every soul went away happy, saying within themselves. "did not our hearts burn within us as we sat and listened to two overflowing messages. At 1 a. m., Rev. G. Coleman was in the Spirit and delivered a powerful message. At 8 p. m., Rev. J. W. Price delivered a powerful sermon, which topped the climax of the day. A. M. E. ZION CHURCH— Masonic Temple, 1209 1-2 Central. Rev. J. E. McCorkle, Pastor. Last Sabbath was the Fourth and good services were witnessed Clark, presiding elder, preached at the morning and night services. There was a touch of masterly eloquence and forceful persuasion in each of the messages delivered. At the morning service there was a free demonstration of the presence of the Holy Spirit. Many wept for joy and some exclaimed the Master's praise. The illustration of the evening's services were so appealing as not to be forgotten soon. There is every he is now serving. Rev. S. M. Bean preached in the afternoon on the life of Samson, drawing forceful and timely illustrations from this great character that should be remembered by all who heard them. Rev Bean has shown repeatedly that he is a power in the pulpit and a positive force for good. The Methodist Ministers' Alliance was represented by Rev. A. B. Shaw, J. C. Anderson, J. W. Price and Rev. S. M. Bean, and there were also visitors from the several congregations. The time is in sight when at any afternoon meeting represented by this Alliance, the edifice will be crowded to its capacity. Beginning from the last Sabbath in August, our service will be on the evening to order, and we feel that at this time there is an opportunity to call men into the Kingdom as well making efforts to meet material obligations. On Sunday night, August 10, the Choir will render another of the sacred programs. You are cordially invited to be present. Everyone witnessing the former were well paid in spiritual blessing. CHRIST TABERNACLE Washington Hall, Cor. Washington and Central Ave. Pastor C. P. Jones returned Saturday from an evangelistic tour through the South, and after preaching to a splendid audience at Tabernacle Church at 11 a. m., he preached at 4 p. m. and 8:30 p. m. at Washington Hall. Services were full of power, consolation and sweetness. Next Sunday Dr. Jones will preach at Washington Hall at 6 a. m., 4 p. m. and 8:30 p. m. 'All are invited. SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH— Maple Ave, 7th and 8th Sts. Many visitors were in our Sunday School last Sunday, and all received our usual hearty welcome. At the 11 o'clock service we were favored with the presence and fellowship of our beloved President Leyton of the Woman's National Baptist Convention, who gave us a very timely address; also the great Texas war horse, Rev. Dr. Barber. Dr. Barber was in good form, yet he saved himself for this Sunday morning, when he will preach for us. Let every Texan in town come out and hear the man of the hour. The Baptist women, assisted by Dr. Prowd, will hold a mass meeting at our Church at 3 p.m., at which time Mrs. Leyton will deliver her principal address to us all. We most cordially invite everyone to come and hear this great woman of the Race. Mrs. Leyton's stay in our city is brief, and this will be the last chance for us to hear her this time. Let us make good use of the opportunity. The Senior and Junior Missionary Societies are requested to turn out en masse, as also the Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. The women and men of sister churches are specially urged to attend the mass meeting. Once more we urge the necessity of the various Clubs to continue the weekly meetings and collect dues toward our new house of worship. All members of the B. Y. P. U. are asked to come out to the regular meeting on Sunday evening. Mrs. Leyton's lecture at St. Paul Church was a masterpiece. All who heard her were delighted and went away with grateful hearts. We thank God for women like Mrs. Leyton and pray for others to follow in her footsteps. Do not miss hearing her on Sunday, afternoon. MT. ZION BAPTIST CHURCH—3rd and Traction Ave. Rev. S. W.

The Old Eagle seems to droop his wings—but see! Catch a gimpse of his eyes and the smoldering fires that burn within seem to contain a fierce warning! Wearily does the Managing Editor sit, with daily papers piled on either side and eaves buried on the front page of the "latest edition"—slowly does she shake her head from side to side—then rising, her body heaves with a sigh while she presses her aching head with her forefingers in quest of relief. The Lino-operator moodly at the machine for spaces of hours and hours sits—only the roar of the machine and tinkling of the keys may be heard. Then perhaps silence would be broken by a not-to-be understood ejaculation as a far-away melancholy hum. Dumbly the Editor sits with ope'd mouth in object spirits. More solemn and quiet than usual, the Head Printer noiselessly treads, and with deft fingers carries on his work. The occasional dry joke of the Printers' Devil is swallowed up by the noise of the shop as dry chaff by a fire. Morosely the Society Editor with bowed head stalks in and out of the shop as though she were in the midst of enacting some dire deed of tragedy. She halts, throws up her hans, seems to think better of such a movement and then stalks out. "I mean to go and fight," explodes the Lino-operator at last. "Who will give me a gun?" "My father has a German rifle, but then I fear it is larger than you." and the Society Editor with a hopeless sigh turned away. "Oh, I could fight, fight. Give me a woman battalion and I will teach this country a lesson!" The Managing Editor's face was red with emotion; her eyes sparkled and frame fairly shocked. "Ah, yes, there'll come a time when we all will have a chance to show the light in us" philosophied the Head Printer, and far away from the Capitol the clashing of races could be heard—born of the intolerance and hatred of the white man. The Old Eagle heard—was deeply stirred. Admirable, indeed, in all appearances are a certain two of the staff. Certainly the attraction seems to be as great as sugar to the ant or cabbage to the flies! Daily their little round faces are pressed flat on the window nare as they peer in on him, waiting and watching for even a glance of his big "black eyes" as he turns them from the machine. The Managing and Social Edition wonders if it can be their extraordinary physique that thusly attracts—for he of the other extreme—why the ladies in a certain district all say that he has a "baby" face. And a woman usually loves babies. But Friday evening one was so attracted as to come in the office and in loud sounding tones acclaim the virtues of the two. One was "brainy" and "good" and "great"—the other was acclaimed a "smoothe little fellow." A Dr.Miles -Anti- PainPills For Any Ache or Pain.

Was entered as Second-Class Matter, November 17, 1913 at the Post Office at Los Angeles, Cal., under the Act of March 3, 1879. C. A. SPEAR.....Managing Editor J. B. BASS.....Editor God bless the men who are leading the Lower California movement! May each one of us today endeavor to get in touch with this movement and secure a foothold for ourselves and our children in a country where it is not a crime to be black. Every Colored citizen with an ounce of red blood in his or her veins and with the most ordinary powers of observation must agree after witnessing the Washington and Chicago riots that the American Negro's dream of race equality in the United States is forever shattered. The sensible and wise Negro man or woman is the one who TODAY will begin to acquire land in a country where Colored men and women are regarded as equal and are denied no opportunity or privilege. In this respect Lower California stands as the one shining golden opportunity of the American Neogro today. Between the Negro and his fond hopes of using the common bathing beaches, hotels and restaurants and rising to the same industrial heights and business opportunities as the American white man, there is drawn a grain and terrible line of machine guns and soldiers. The daily newspaper have been screaming these facts for the past two weeks as they have never screamed before. At a recent lecture given in this city the speaker had scarcely been seated when a large portion of the congregation without getting the consent of their own pastor, to say nothing about the Master of Ceremonies, as noisily as they could made for the nearest exit. Such is very discourteous to the speaker, especially if he or she are strangers. If you have no money to give sit up and look wise until the parade is over. MOVING DAY FOR VICE. In this city there is only one stand for our people to take and that is to stand at all times for Law, Order and Common Decency, and against vice idleness and immorality. We are going to insist on this principle to the utmost, such has been our stand in the past and it ever shall be. With vice obliterated to a minimum we need have no fear of disorder in our midst, but at the present vice resorts are the breeding places of trouble. A hint to the wise is sufficient it is MOVING DAY for the vicious element in this city. THE CHICAGO RIOT. Sow the Wind, you reap the Whirlwind; such to our mind is the crux of the race war at Chicago. We can't get away from the fact that disregard for law and order, creates mob violence and in this instance brought about the riot. Had the officer on duty at the Beach resort last Sunday performed his duty, his sworn duty, to uphold law and order, there would have been no race war. This is the very renseon that we have always stood up for law and order and have given no quarter to vice in this city; because we know only too well what lawlessness leads up to, and where the spark of hatred is once kindled there is no limit to the course it may run and as all peoples have been schoolled through a period of a public war on Democracy they expect it; they want it; they will fight for it and if necessary will die for it. No one can gainsay the fact that the Negro has reached that stage where he will no longer submit to gross indignities without retaliating in kind. This is but natural and to our mind would be less than a man should he slink, cringe and submit to these things. Outnumbered? Yes! but standing firmly on a principle of defense there are those of all naces who will soon say this persecution cannot be, humanity returning to first principles at the altar of truth will bow, and the sable sons of Ham will surely be accorded a place in the Sun. NERO FIDDLES WHILE ROME BURNS. If there was ever a period when the American Negro should think seriously concerning his future in these United States it seems that, that time is now. Nor should those of us basking in the sunshine of California feel that the conditions existing in other sections, where the safety, and happiness of members of our race are jeopardized by race hatred feel that we have no part in this calamity. Like Nero, who idly fiddled or while Rome burned, many of us out here in the new West are feasting, and dancing to the tune of the white man's price while fellow racemen in other sections are paying for a new year's folly. The present Chicago riot is ascribed to several reasons, the main one however, seems to be the great Southern exodus, during the late war which brought Negroos from the South crude, and in no way prepared for the new freedom which they were to enjoy. Such a condition in any section or among any class of people seems preposterous in a country sought by European peasants because of its religious tolerance, and liberal educational opportunities. But in the South education for Negroes is not compulsory, and what educational opportunities that are offered are so meagre that it scarcely breaks the soil of illiteracy. Also when the crude children of the South find their way to the North and West where their more fortunate kinsmen reside they are not cordially received by the better class, and as a rule fall in with the skum hence after being reproduced in the factory of gay life they, become what is commonly called bad citizens Now, the question we would ask—Are they to blame for their condition? When the better class Negroes who make up the "four hundreds" spend less time deliberating to lay it on the table re-deliberate upon the next year, think more about the investments they put into railroads each year without any returns, and the amounts put into other frivolities, and pay a proportionate amount of attention to their less fortunate brother, the new comer from the South we will then be doing our duty to ourselves, and may with better grace, and greater courage demand better treatment from our even more fortunate white brother.

TENNIS TOURNAMENT The West Side Tennis Club will hold the Labor Day Tournament at the Y M C A Courts in Boyle Height. There will be men's singles, ladies singles, men's doubles, ladies doubles, and mixed doubles. Something that has never before been staged in Los Angeles in a tournament, and it will be worth your time to witness such an affair. There are some very strong teams that will enter and are training every day at the West Side and Alpha Counts and according to the close sheet their promise some real sport. While the bachelor brings the other half over and have a grand old time with the rest of the Tennis players. Before giving list some people thank to keep warm they must have lived in Alaska. A prominent detective agent of the Los Angeles Police Department made his appearance at the West Side Tennis Course and in talking to some of his brother members, someone he said he got a mail concerning tennis so queued. He was asked the make and price of it and he said neither. Whose did he get? Don't ask me! Lennon? "BALLINGER KEMP IS READY" Sarah girls you had better come out on the Hon. of Camellia N. Norrman Hall tonight and have that last dance with that with our old pat. but before he starts on his long trip across the continent by the time Kenny joins with all homers the Country Club House will be well on its way.

VERSON HAS CAKEWALK WITH SEATTLE The Vernon Tigers clawed everything in sight during their stay at home. While Sacramento made Los Angeles bite the dust at the Capital. Vernon put everything on Seattle but quit. Seattle as a ball team should make good deck hands on an aeroplane, because they sure can aviate when they get on a ball field. If Vernon can hold her own while she is on the road, old John Barley Corn will turn over in his grave from over joy to think that Vernon is on her way to the Pacific Coast championship for 1919. Unless Los Angeles takes a brace soon, she will have trouble holding second place; for both Salt Lake and San Francisco are promising plenty of trouble for her. NATIONAL AND AMERICAN LEAGUE BACE At the start of the National American League race Chicago of the American League and New York of the National League were picked to win the pennant. So far both teams with a few expected ups and downs have played true to form. New York is leading her nearest rival Cincinnati by less than 20 points and will have to hurry to stay in the lead. While Philadelphia is poised to enter the pennent Detroit by 20 points and must not go to sleep for Detroit is fighting like demands and promises plenty of trouble for their leader. 15 MARKABLE DRIVE ON MOTOR FROM CANADA TO PORTER San Diego, July 26—Wells Bennett of Los Angeles broke the motorbike record from the Canadian border to the Mexican Border when he arrived at Tia Juana yesterday at 2:28.

Soon a dock of Coney Island hot dogs came trailing in from somewhere, and peon to growl and sizzle, and sour krout 00-00'. And the food that Reuben's little wife sent in to us was manners, everybody except Paul Williams finally subdued his dogs and other animals. We had him break him loose, and before we had wiped our chins dry. Reuben Lewis himself was helped up and stated that we were not there to eat his food only, but to organize a tennis club, and to organize picked up immediately. And there, before our eyes, pine of the busiest athletes in the whole Heights affixed their names to a set of articles and became known as the Boyle Heights Tennis Club, and you need not think them all dubs, either. Some of these boys are as wiry as a steel trap and just off the campus and full of pep. And they know the game, too; one of these birds wanted to know if a little trip to New York would be considered next year. There are several public courts in that district, so they are all so. Their next nesting will be at the home of the Vick-Press, Mr. Oscar Jetter, 3219 Gleason avenue, Saturday night. The officers and members are Reuben Lewis, President; Oscar Jetter, ice-President; Albert Sims, Secretary; Felix Williams, Corresponding Secretary; John Hopgood, Treasurer; Frank Wilson, Wm. Ragdale, and James Lewis. Constitution Committee; and Henry Lewis. They favor the country club proposition and will join the Federation immediately. "Watch them grow!"

M. C. Ai had a splendid program on last Sunday Afternoon. Mr. Wm. Randolf the Chairman of the Committee offered as the main attraction, Atty. H. Pascal Pearson, who delivered a very instructive and interesting address on "The religious side of the army", atty. Pearson who was a member of the 1630s. Inft. and served in France, gave in a very effective manner the experiences of that regiment both in the U.S. Cantonements and in France even at the front line. He paid a nigh tribute to the Y's overrehearsed in their work of entertaining and making it comfortable for the boys during his stay in France. He told of the different amusements provided each evening by the Y, and also things that they provided for the boys that they could not have gotten otherwise. The goodly number of men and boys present certainly enjoyed Mr. Pearson's address, and it was in itself a very distinct educational feature. Other numbers on the program was a very beautiful Piano solo by Mr. Randolf himself; and a vocal selection by Capt. Wm. Reynolds. Several new members were added to the roll. On next Sunday afternoon the finance Committee will have charge of the program, and Mr. A. H. Evans the chairman promises a treat to all who attend. The main subject will be the financing the Y. M. C. A. Splendid musical numbers will be offered as well. The program will begin promptly at 3:00 p. clock p. m. and close at 4 p. clock in order that as many as will may go down to the Scott Chapel and help Rev. Jordan in a special rally at that church. All should go down and assist Rev. Jordan. The Young Women's Missionary Auxiliary of the Friendship Baptist Church held a very successful meeting on last Sunday afternoon. The Rev. J. F. C.

St. Louis, Prominent Race Man, Who has Traveled Through Europe, Asia, Africa, Central America and South America, and was for Years Spanish Interpreter in Cuba, Finds Home in Santa Clara Valley, Lower California. (By William A. Reddick.) Often between jobs, in San Diego, I would go east a few miles where one could enjoy an unobstructed view of that portion of the Bay lying north of Coronado strand, and, there I would, seated on a pile of logs, gaze for hours at a stretch, across the border over into the dim distant hills of Mexico, silently wondering what lay beyond; what secrets they guarded; what valleys might lie encompassed within their midst; what sort of animal and vegetable life might find existence among their canyons and valleys; what sort of people were finding subsistence and perhaps life in that romantic, mist-enshrouded range; and feeling at the same time as one drawn by an invisible but powerful magnet I could dimly discern among the vague shadows which seemed to be intent on withdrawing themselves into the time-worn, age-old folds of its brooding breast. At last, reluctantly, albeit with an unspoken promise of a future tryst, I would drag my weary feet away and face again the brutal struggle for life along with an against my fellow comrades. They, my, comrades, in the great disorganized, wrangling, discordant mass of humanity, miscalled by some superficial would-be reformers, the great army of labor, were handicapped enough. God knows, in our living battle for the few crumbs of bread doled out to us by the masters. Most of them Mexican laborers, "gentle chicana, y gente manita" felt themselves more at home than I. There was no doubt those among them who pitied me, were thankful, sorrowfully thankful of my presence in their midst. Realizing that the same cruel and shameful, wasteful, unnatural method of crucifying his blood brothers in his unholy sacrifice to the Golden Calf had reached for the long arm of hellish power and plucked from the gentler untroubled bosom of Africa, another child of Nature, of God to be sacrificed also in the name of a degenerate and pestilential curse called "Civilization." I left San Diego regretfully troubled in spirit. I went through San Diego again last week joyfully with a spirit encompassed by an im- monuously sweet strain, hoping and a number of his congregation came down and joined in the service. The Rev. Taylor delivered a very helpful and interesting sermon and the Choir rendered pleasing music. A good collection was taken. The Y. W. M. A., as is all the departments of the Church is putting forth every effort to carry good results in a financial way to the Association which meets in August. The Women's Home and Forcible Missionary Society of the Friendship Church will hold an all day meeting at the Church on Friday, August 8, and a very elaborate program for the day has been planned, and quite a number of visitors are expected from Los Angeles over here on that day, and it will be a feast of reason and flow of soul. At 11 o'clock a.m., the pastor, Rev. W. H. Tillman will preach a missionary sermon, and at 3 o'clock a spiritual feast will be had in testimonial, after which they will hold the election of officers for the next Association year. At 3 o'clock will be the Annual reports of the President, Mrs. J. A. Fleming and the other officers. The installation of the new officers will take place and a general winding up of the business of the year preparatory to attending the Asosciation. A program is also planned to intersperse the evening exercises and the Choir of the Friendship Church will sing. At the last business of the Friendship Baptist Church it was voted to make extensive improvements to the Church building; the plans as adopted include the addition of 20 feet more to the main Auditorium, and 50 feet more to the Sunday School room with interior improvements, such as Class rooms, a basement for dining room, etc., enlargement of the Chair stand, and many other minor details that will be brought out later. A building Committee including the Trustee Board was appointed and are already at work on the plans with an Architect. The improvements will cost in the neighborhood of $1000.00. against hope that I was on my right road a last. Still to be prepared for the worst, I had made all arrangements in case the project proved impracticable to roam south, ever south and never across the frontier again. The urge, the wonderlust was upon me and I am never more at ease unless I obey it. I felt that it would perhaps never leave me and had often sought a cure, a solace, a spot somewhere that I would know I could always call home. Our party reached the border in our high-powered capable car under the efficient and gentlemanly direction of Mr. J. N. Littlejohn, who exercised considerable tact and a high degree of diplomacy with the various officials of the frontier. To us that is to say, Mrs. Gregory, Mr. Erwin and myself, time went by on wings as it were. The contrast in the manner of handling parties crossing over displayed by the officials of the respective governments struck my companions as a revelation into the different every day procedure of Spanish and American cordiality. I need only say the characteristic and inherent urbanity of the Latin has always captivated all who are fortunate to come in contact with him. We rolled out of Tia Juana on a very smooth and well kept road, feeling that we had penetrated a move congenial atmosphere, we actually had a lively feeling of satisfaction that we were going home after being long absent. Every farm house, every ranch we passed its occupants would salute us in the old fashioned courteous manner of country gentlemen, to be saluted in turn by us. As our smooth running car pushed on deeper and deeper into the heart of La Baja, California, our guide would point out the different proposed colonies. That of Los Palmas, the first we encountered after leaving the wild established and prosperous haciendas back Tia Juana way, is prize jewel set apart for the children of the Sun, and, will no doubt turn out to be the Capital. There one gets his first impression of the tropical like fecundity of this marvelous country. At a single glance he can embrace this valley of enchantment with all of its perennial verdure, its seeming wild life, its abundance of water, that, even on the fag end of dry summer is everywhere apparent. As you pass thru you can see already where a few hardy pioneers have made a start and doing exceedingly well with the most primitive of methods. You can see with your own skeptical eyes where good old kind mother nature gives all In the Movie World BY JOHN A. GRAY Now that vacation time is here and most of the musical world is in the mountains or by the seashore, one has time to reflect and plan for the coming season. The time is ripe for Los Angeles to make new strides in the world of music, especially Race musicians. First of all we need, more foundation, and that means more students, real students, and not merely those who take a few lessons for pastime. We need more vocal students, who are willing to study long enough to amount to something. We need more followers of orchestra and band instruments. Perhaps if some of our young men who have so much time to decorate street corners and to lounge around in barber shops and pool halls would devote a small percentage of that leisure time to the study of some instrument, we would be able to have a first rate band and orchestra in a few years. We need more concerts and recitals of a higher type in order to cultivate the appreciation of the general public. We need a good choral society. One that is able to render an oratorio and work of that caliber successfully and well. Each singer should be able to read notes and have some knowledge of tone production. There should be more community singing, as this help to develop appreciation and instill a deeper love for music in the minds of those who participate. We need students of elocution and the drama, as these things are requisite for a performance of musical plays and light operas, cantatas, etc. Things which a choral organization should be able to produce within the next five years. The race must progress; it cannot afford to stand still. These and many more things must develop from the latent talent of the Race. There is no better time to start than now, and every encouragement should be given those who attempt to prepare themselves for the great work that is before them. The music lovers will be interested in "The Music Master." a monthly magazine devoted to the interests of the Race in music, and published in Washington, D. C. This is the only existing publication of its kind thru which they might unite efforts and reach the music loving public all over the country. This step forward is one to be proud of and should meet with encouragement everywhere. her true children bountiful rewards for the slighted attention, with a last backward glance at the beautiful prospect and a parting prayer that all might go well with its future colonists we rolled onward, southward, awed into silence by the truly majestic grandeur of the bronzed, wrinkled, and brooding guardians of the Valley of Las Palmas. The rugged ranges surrounding it Mid-way between Las Palmas and the Russian settlement at Vallecitos we passed the stage n route from Escandela, and on inquiring as to the condition of the roads were told they were in good condition excepting where the river has to be crossed. At Vallecitos I saw a scene whose equal cannot be found except in the pastoral sections of southern Europe. We arrived a little before sunset, when the vast numbers of cackling geese were waddling up for the night's feed and the sleek cattle were being driven from the fields to water, so fat, and clean were they and so free from all signs of ticks and disease, and so bright the sheen on their silky hides one wonders if they had not been just groomed. The well fed contented pigs scurrying, rooting and grumbling around for their share of anything to be given out also showed the results of a bountious supply. The children, fat, simply and cleanly clad, testified to a pantry kept well stocked. And the women who were drawing water and trundling it off in little low wagons were strong and healthy, clear skinned and deep bosomed as all country women are. After refreshing ourselves with the sparkling well water we set out for home - Santa Clara, arriving shortly after dark. We were cordially welcomed by the family at the ranch at whose stands the most amiable Senora M. Serrano, whose traditions and family spring from the earliest of pioneers. We set out next morning to make a careful examination of the ranch and were entranced thoroughly so as the beauty and richness were gradually unfolded before skeptical eyes. This ranch is already for planting very little clearing has to be done as the brush is thin and green grass abounds on all sides, evidence that water is just below the surface of the earth. The abundance of small game that day before and bagged another guards against the larder ever get- THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE THE LABORATORY Metropolitan Hair Store and Costuming Establishment The only race establishment on the Pacific Coast where you may be fitted up in anything made from HAIR and secure the most fastidious costume for Masquerade Balls, Tacky Parties, or Colonial Dances. ```markdown ``` 952-54 Central Avenue 10 Mrs. Mabel Turner ting empty and deer are plentiful. The Senaroes Reynaldo Serrano and Den Robert Serrano had shot a deer while we were exploring. We can easily imagine the feast the estimable Senora Maria Serrano had provided for us when we reached home famished by our long trip of observation. It was a true rural scene, typical of the marvelous country we are invited to settle in. The deer, a mule deer, was strung up in the most approved fashion and was being dressed by the two hearty hunters who had that day broke a record. They had shot the running deer at 300 yards! Think of it. The family standing around; the dogs lying down in various attitudes at the base of the tree; the old style rancheros house forming a background and in the distance the three angles grouped sentinel like around the fertile valley formed a never to be forgotten picture in our minds that will never leave us and will always be called poignant with the number of epoch making day. For me the day of days—the day when ever I ever restless, ever wandering, seeing I know not what; felt that ever I was, well as any of us who wish to take advantage of such an unparalleled offer had found a home, had found a COUNTRY.
