VOLUME 33
CAN YOU BEAT IT?
By E. L. Dorsey
Can you beat it? What? was the come back from two or three listeners within the hearing range of the speaker. Why, our President, our own dear Woodrow Wilson, he whom we expect to elect to the high and exalted position of ex-President somehow and time next year with the assistance of the portion of the balance of the country's population that is found necessary to turn the deal, has away up North, in the little town of Billings, Mont., far, far from home and the maddening throng in Washington, D. C., regained a semblance of composure, smoothed down his hair, brushed the dust off his person, accumulated by fast travel, caught his breath, which seemingly left him a month or so ago and with his hat in hand suddenly expresses himself to that loyal abiding section of the country on the subject of race riots—Can it be true?
His visit was supposed to be in the interest and support of the ratification of the German Peace Treaty. But folks, just to be plain spoken, doesn't it look as if trouble of another naturo which began in Woodrow's home town a short time ago, leaped to Chicago and spread South again to Nashville, causing in all some fifty lives to have been shuffled out, was in a measure somewhat responsible for our dear President's presence away up there in Billings, where he stopped long enough and rose early enough on the morning of September 12th to inform a waiting audience of more than 3,000 people that had gathered to hear a defensive talk on the League of Nations, that he was ashamed of the recent race riots and treatment accorded Negro subjects of this country, fellow citizens in the time of war?—Can you beat it? Just when everyone had given up hope that he would ever mention a word publicly or privately for that matter in denunciation of conditions that were bound to precipitate a crisis sooner or later—the dead speak
This reminds one of the roll played by a Georgia Governor, a couple of years ago, who suddenly found it necessary to take some air and headed this way, visiting San Francisco and other western cities, supposedly in the interest of his health, but, incidently to escape facing conditions and shouldering responsibilities he incurred when a jury found Leo Frank guilty of murdering a young girl employed in the factory of which he was Superintendent, and decreed that he be hung, and said Governor commuted his sentence to life imprisonment. A bribe of some thousand was hinted at as the price. An infurished lawless mob executed the original sentence over the head of the Governor, and thinking it better to be a law coward rather than a dead hero he took Horace Grover's three sons ad

It Pays to Own Your Own Home If You Live in Los Angeles
A young married woman came to Los Angeles with her family. They rented a house, prospered, and finally bought a home of their own, in another part of the city. "The people over here are SO much nicer," she confided to a friend: "They seem anxious to get acquainted. Why, over where we used to live, hardly anyone ever called upon me. I was so LONELY."
A few minutes later the friend asked: "Who lives in that pretty little house over there?" "Oh, I don't know her," said the lady who had been "so lonely!" "I have never called on her. They only RENT the house."
The point of this true story is not feminine inconsistency. It is to emphasize a condition which really exists in the City of Los Angeles. This is first and foremost a city of HOMES. The man who owns his home, who has definitely and finally taken title to a piece of ground and the house thereon, who assumes responsibility for its condition and appearance, and for the lawn and trees, who plants trees and shrubs and vines that will, in years to come, raise the standard of beauty of that whole neighborhood—that man is entitled to more credit than he who merely RENTS.
And he rets that credit. He gets it in business. He is considered a steady, stable, settled CITIZEN of Los Angeles. He has evinced his belief in the progress and the stability of the city. He and his family get a similar credit in social life. They are admitted to full standing in their neighborhood. They form permanent al-

case of Woodrow. It looks as if he has jumped into the same dry land boat and ridden the steel waves west to speak on a subject he should have spoken on at home.
In this particular incident it might be well for him to realize that with the Westerner, actions speak louder than words. What a relief, what a moral, what a physical effect a little Presidential action or even those words spoken would of had on an anxious public located in Washington, D. C., when human beings were being killed at the rate of a dozen a day; when whites and blacks, democrats and republicans; church and state and humanity in general looked with askance at the door of the White House, but naree a word.
Our President instead was preparing to fee and made the final start under the guide of going to report to his fellow countrymen why it was necessary to blanket the German Peace Treaty proper with a quilt of the League of Nations. How different from the Roosevelt type of President who spoke on all occasions, while the iron was hot, when jupiter pulvus was noon day high, who never minced his words for fear of hurting the conscience of a criminal public. In as much as he remained silent this long, it were better brother Wilson had said nothing for his words hear the ring of a coward who remains silent when he should speak and speaks when he should remain silent. Perhaps the recent excitement in Boston recalled to his memory an echo of that uncomfortable feeling that existed a year or so ago when the safety of home and government he sought safety and protection from harm of spies, bombs and cut throats, while on duty at the capitol surrounded by died-in-the-wool American veterans—we Black Americans. Surrounded by a contingent of those very folks he now finds at this belated hour time to speak of; we who helped him in his and the country's hour of need, but whom he shuns when able to help. The West is accustomed to earthquakes, but they are physically not verbal earthquakes and we hope he will in the future and particularly dur ing the remainder of his present trip let nature take its course and refrain from attempting to substitute the verbal variety for the physical.

There are hundreds—yes, thousands—of families in Los Angeles who are RENT-FERS, and who ought to be OWNERS. They live, often, in the houses which other people left behind them, when they built new and modern and better located homes. These families, who live in old houses, in flats and apartments, would enjoy having new and commodious, modern beautiful homes. They would enjoy being able to say: "This is our HOME. Here we will STAY. These neighbors, who OWN their homes, are OUR neighbors, and we OWN our home."
NOW is the time to get a home in Los Angeles. There is no likelihood of any lowering in the cost of building materials. There is a very strong likelihood of a heavy decrease in the number of desirable building lots. Real estate has not yet felt the influence of a changed standard of value. There are literally thousands of people with their faces toward Los Angeles. We are in the first months of another era of tremendous growth and development. It takes only TWO men have their eyes on the same lot to send the price of that lot rising. TODAY is none too soon to pick out a desirable location and to arrange to pay a small deposit on a home and pay the RENT to yourself instead of to a landlord.

Mr. DeBekker who appeared before the Foreign Relation Committee on Monday said, "Worse things had been happening in this country than in Mexico," where intervention is being considered. I might add if our President doesn't use other methods the League of Nations and the Mexico situation will fade into insignificance compared with some of the National problems confronting the country today, and his political tutor, whether it be a Colonel House, a Lensing, a Polk or a Marshall had better advise him along those lines and to that effect before it is too late.

ROSCOE. CONKLING SIMMONS' RECEIVES A MIGHTY OVATION.
He Came! He Saw! He Conquered!
Such indeed is the story of Americas forehost orator in his recent advent to the Pacific Coast.
On last Wednesday night Trinity Auditorium was packed and jammed to the utmost on the occasion of Hon. Descee Conkling Simmons' second coming to the city. Be it known that on his previous visit to this section by his strong personality and lofty ideals he had endeared himself in the hearts of the great common people, and they were eager and on tip toe, to drink from the fountain as only the perless Simmons could give them drink; and on this occasion he surely did not disappoint them. With his added experience from a trip to the battlefields of Europe, he soared into the skies and in daring metaphor, beautiful and forceful rhetoric, he inspired his great audience and for three hours they sat as riveted to their seats, enthralled at his masterful eloquence; thundering applause greeted most every sentence of this marvelous address.
We have said that Simmons is the idol of the great common people and they are with him to the man, no force can stop them; he speaks their

language and speaks up for them as no other great orator has spoken since the days of Frederick Douglas. The pigmies are no more of a barrier to his progress than the barking canine was to the pyramids of Egypt. He spoke in part as follows:
The American white man will never receive the American negro except on the ground of character.
I am proud of my race and proud of my country.
The American white man was anxious to get us over here. He could not rest without us and now he cannot rest with us.
God teaches men in war what they refuse to learn in peace.
I owe the white ma na debt I can never repay. What h owes to me I never expect to get.
Nobody loves you unless they can borrow money from you.
The American Negro is the Amer-
ian white man's best friend and his
only friend.
Honor knows no color line.
Theodore Roosevelt exercised more influence in his grave than all the rest of the white men on their feet.
Mr. Simmons arrived in the city Wednesday morning over the Santa Fe from Phoenix, where he spoke Monday evening. His trip to the West starting at Kansas City has been one continued ovation. He was met at the place by the editor of this paper and has been and will be accompanied by him on his entire tour of the West which concludes at Denver on October 20th, at which place the largest gathering of the entire trip is assured. He will speak in the great auditorium of that city and will speak to no less than 4000 people. He will speak in this city again on Friday, October 24th.

BISHOP PHILLIPS
TO BE HEARD
Bishop C. H. Phillips, A. M., D. D., the erudite, scholarly Bishop of the Fourth Episcopal District of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, will preach at Phillips Chapel, 1406 Newton St., Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The pastors and congregations of the various churches of the city are invited to be present.
THE RISE OF A CHURCH IN CALIFORNIA.
But yesterday, as it were, the 1919 session of the District Conference of the C. M. E. Church closed after a memorable session at Santa Monica. Bishop Phillips, the head of this end of the work is delighted with the efforts of his co-workers in this corner of the Vineyard, and the C. M. E. Church under his jurisdiction is destined to grow and bring forth in this end of the country. And now for the edification of churchmen at large we are publishing a brief report of the results of this Conference. The California Conference of the C. M. E. Church met in Phillip's Chapel C. M. E. Church at Santa Monica, Wednesday morning, at ten o'clock. Mishop C. H. Phillips of Nashville, Tenn., presided. The reports of the Conference showed that there had been a remarkable increase in the membership of the various churches and in new churches organized and new houses of worship built.
A new church had been organized at San Diego and a lot purchased. A house of worship will be built there soon. The churches at Santa Monica, Berkeley and Los Angeles, had been paid out of debt and a substantial increase in membership was shown. The Conference comprises two districts, taking in the States of Arizona, New Mexico and California. There were some changes in the appointments. Rev. W. B. Butler of El Paso was made President; Elder of the Los Angeles District. Rev. Wm. Seldon was appointed to San Diego; Rev. J. W. Praham was appointed to Santa Monica; Rev. F. W. Haynes was transferred from the Kentucky and Ohio Conference to Berkeley; Rev. J. C. Anderson was re-appointed to Los Angeles for the fifth time; Rev. Z. Z. Johnson was re-appointed to the Arizona District for the sixth year.
The Conference plans to make a special centenary offering this year and celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the organization of the church. The addresses and sermon by Bishop Phillips were said to have been the greatest ever heard on the. Cong. Plans for a great Missionary campaign were made and Rev. A. C. Caldwell was appointed Conference Missionary and Evangelist.
From nothing, ten year ago, the Conference now has 15 traveling preachers; 22 churches and 600 members. The Women's Missionary Societies rendered a program on Friday night and turned in the greatest report in their history. The Bishop read the appointments on Sunday night and the greatest session of the Conference passed into history. The Conference meets in El Paso, Texas, in 1920.

Last Sunday the day's service was full of interest. The Rev. C. N. Bliot preached at the morning service and there were three accessions to the church. Next Sunday the Rev. Wilson will be in charge at both services.

Three splendid services is the record of the past Sunday's activities at this church. The pastor occupied the pulpit at the morning and evening hours. The text for the morning was: "The World passeth away and the lust thereof, but he that doeth the will of God abdith forever." 1 John 2:17; "Christian Stewardship" was the subject at the evening hour.
At 3.00 p. m. the Simpson-Lewis Memorial Fund Band held forth in their regular monthly service. Rev. S. W. Brooks, pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist church brought a helpful message on "Sin—its Consequences." This Sunday, September 28th will be observed as Membership Rally. Every member of the church is urgently requested to be on hand at the morning or evening hour in great get-together services.

ST. PAUL BAPTIST INSTITUTIONAL
AL. CHURCH
21st and Naomi Avenue
Rev. R. N. Holt, D. D., Pastor
Last Sunday was a glorious day at
St. Paul. The Sunday School was
attended by a large number of little
folk, who received careful instructions
from their teachers. At 11.30
a. m. and 8.30 p. m. "Father Holt"
broke the bread of life to interested
congregations of members and
friends. Both sermons were inspir-
ing.
There were two accession to the church during the day. The B. Y. P. U. will meet at 4 p. m. next Sunday, that more of the children may be present; parents will please take notice. The various clubs are all at work; please lend a helping hand. Strangers and friends are cordially invited to attend all of our services.
The past Sunday was a day of Gospel feasting for the worshippers and friends of Bethel. Sunday School was well attended and had an interesting and printable session. At the morning hour the pastor preached an excellent sermon; Text: Psalm 119:105—"The word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path." The sermon was very helpful and searching; our hearts truly burned as the inspired Word fell as a two-edged sword consuming all unrighteousness. Much admonition was given for the people to cease from adhering so much to the ideas and the philosophy of men, and cling to Jesus, for he is our only hope. At 6 p.m. m. the Y. P. U. was well attended. This is truly a great work; parents are urged to come and bring the young ones. At 8 p.m. the pastor delivered another helpful and inspired message; Text: 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12—and for this cause God shall send delusion, that they should believe a lie; that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." The Lord wonderfully used his messenger at this hour. The people were truly warned against the so-called Spiritualist Church which is the most damnable evil confronting the church today. Two accessories were made at this service. If you are yearning for an inspired unadulterated gospel that compromises with no sin, don't fail to hear this God-fearing man; truly commissioned by the great God of the universe to preach his word. Songs of Zion by the Choir. Next week's services are usual.
The door stands open to all.
The services last Sunday beginning with the Sunday School at 9.30 and including the morning and evening services were brim full of interest. Rev. Shipley held forth at both morning, and evening service, delivering timely messages upon both occasions. Dr. Prowd, who is on his vacation and visiting the National Baptist Convention at Newark, N. J., where the Second Baptist Church of this city was represented with an hundred dollars, writes that he is praying for the continued growth of the old Second Church, about which his prayers hover. Rev. Hardeman of Colton will occupy the pulpit next Sunday.
Large congregations worshipped at Wesley both morning and evening last Sunday. The pastor preached very acceptably at both services.
This was Annual True Blue Day. Wesley's membership never worked together better than in this effort. The largest True Blue offering for many years was taken $225.00.
This Sunday will be a great day. The pastor preaches his annual sermon at 11 A. M. and Rev D. P. Shaw of Fowler will preach at night.
The whole city should hear the Hall Jubilee Singers in their Farewell Song Service before leaving the city for the season. They will sing at 3.30 in the afternoon. This service is arranged at this hour so that all the people of the city can hear these great singers. Every member and friend is urged to be in or send a liberal offering on the centenary as we need at least
$160 to make our reports what they ought to be for Conference.
The pastor and our, Lay Delegate will leave the first of the week to attend the Annual Conference at Santa Barbara.
Our reports will be by far the best in the history of the church. Wesley was never in better condition since we moved into our present location. In the last two and a half years our total debt has been reduced from $20,000 to $13,000 and the way is clear to raise that balance next year and the remainder of this year. Plans are already on foot whereby we shall be able to secure some large donations on our debt next year. Indications are that we shall do what many of our members thought impossible—clear our church of debt in two years and have a year of jubilee in 1921.
Strangers and visitors always welcome. Everybody invited to attend the great Labor Rally, Monday Night.
MACFDONIA BAPTIST CHURCH—Watts, California.
Rev. John A. Fleming, Pastor.
"Fear ye not, stand still," Hx. 14: 13 was the pastor's text for our morning sermon. One accession to membership at this service.
At 3 o'clock our pastor preached to the Missionary Society of this Church. Our B. Y. P. U. was well attended and the three classes are progressing nicely. At the evening services, the pastor preached his third sermon for the day and semingly his strongest as the Spirit surely was present.
Everyone is working hard and fast for the Big Rally in October; there being three entertainments given in one week. Prayer Meeting every Wednesday evening. It is these meetings that help to make us valiant soldiers for Christ.

Plans for renewed activity among colored men and boys of Los Angeles have just been completed by the metropolitan Y. M. C. A., with T. A. Greene, secretary of the East Ninth Street branch, in executive charge. The coming season, it is said, will witness many events of a social, recreational and religious nature, planned for the benefit of young people in this section of the city.
The recent employment of Leon W. Steward of Galveston, Texas, is expected stimulate wide interest among the boys who use Y. M. C. A. privileges as well as among hundreds of others outside the membership of the Association. Organization of "Gym" classes for boys from 9 to 16 began on Tuesday at the local branch and the formation of Hi Y glee and debating clubs is following throughout the week.
The climax in boy's activities this fall will come on December 27-28, with an older boys' conference at which a splendid program will be presented. Both Mr. Greene and Mr. Steward are planning for the enrollment of many boys in this enlarged work.
The present week has been devoted to the opening of the work. The schedule has been broad and varied, including the following events: Monday—Reception for membership and public; Tuesday—Opening of "Gym" classes for boys 9 tb 16; Wednesday—Organization of Hi Y and Glee Clubs; Thursday—Opening of "Gym" classes for men over 18; Friday—Organization of debating teams; Saturday—Organization of Life Problem and Reconstruction Club; on Thursday, November 27th Football, Basketball and Tennis contests will take place. In addition, regular men's meetings are held every Sunday at 3 p. m. and educational and Bible classes take place throughout the week, except Monday.
Extension of its metropolitan program to serve thousands of men and boys of Los Angeles not now in its membership will be effected by the Y. M. C. A. on October 1st, according to an announcement issued today by D. E. Luther, general secretary, Hollywood, East Los Angeles, San Pedro, and the business, industrial foreign and colored districts of the city will come within the scope of the enlarged plant.

Mr. and Mra. Love of Los Angeles are newcomers in our midst; they joined the Baptist Church. Mr. Love has a position at the Ford Garage.
Rev. Pryor, our energetic young Divine returned from Conference for another year. Mrs. Richardson spoke at the A. M. E. Church in the behalf of the Bundy Fund.
The N. A. A. C. P. gave a reception in the honor of the returned soldiers, September 22nd at A. M. E. Church. Mr. John Jones was the Master of Ceremonies. The boys marched in to the tune of America. The colored canteen committee composed of Mrs. Katie Dixon, Lieut and Mrs. J. J. Pinkney, W. H. Shelvy, Rev. W. M. Dixon and Mr. W. H. Shelvy, preceeded the soldiers who were led by Mr. Ankrum, and old army veterans. The large audience arose and sang The Star Spangled Banner; everyone present one hundred per cent American. Mr. Jones ma d few chosen remarks and the welcome address was given by Master Graver, which was a piece of eloquence. Mr. Willie Pearson from overseas, responded: as a fearless giant this young man spoke from his heart. He stated that the army has caused the young American Negro to find himself disappointed; they went over and fought freely and died for this country and democracy, but on returning home they find the same conditions as before. He found to his sorrow that they had fought by the side of every nation and knew no retreat and quit themselves like men only to return to find conditions even worse for the black man than ever. Miss Eleavy Geary played an instrumental solo with credit. Miss Eunice Walker sang a splendid solo. Rev. Pryor spoke on Development—morally, spiritually, mentally and financially America owes us a living. Mrs. Garner spoke in behalf of the women, stating that they did not have a chance to go overseas as America did not want Negro women to follow Negro soldiers; they were deprived of so much Democracy. But they knit, sewed, bought bonds and thrift stamps and thought of the boys on the firing line. The climax of the evening was the masterpiece of Master Telesore Raina and Governor Wheeler. After the program Rev. W. M. Dixon, the able leader of The N. A. A. C. P. introduced Mrs. Sallie Richardson of Los Angeles to speak of the Bundy case. In her own quiet way she told of her efforts in behalf of Dr. Bundy and the East St. Louis Riot; and they gave her $9.00. The boys then marched downstairs for refreshments, which were enjoyed by all until mid-night.
To the Editor of The Cal. Eagle:
I believe that you would confer a great honor upon the great number of our boys, Sailors and Soldiers, that have returned, as well as those that may return from the late War, to call their attention to the importance of taking their discharges to the Courthouse and having the same recorded for future reference, as these papers can get lost, burnt up or stolen, and you have no idea how much trouble and time it takes to get a new one from the War Department at Washington, D. C., and in a great many instances, you cannot get them at all. But if you have the originals recorded in your Court House, you can always get a certified copy thereof very easily, in case the original

FRED MASON, Atty-at-Law
FAMOUS SAGE WILLIAM PICKENS FOR THE SECOND TIME ENDORSES LOUIS MICHEL'S FAMOUS EPIC "THE TORTURED NEGRO OR THE CRY FOR JUSTICE."
The learned William Pickens, analytical pedagogue, orator and essayist and dean of Morgan College, at Baltimore, Md., and who has made a profound impression upon his audiences that heard him at his recent lectures in this city and other places says in a recent letter to the author of "The Tortured Negro or the Cry for Justice," the following deep-gaped things of Louis Michel's all-gripping epic:
"I think your poem will tend to right the struggle of your race, the Jew, and of my race in our drive for obsolete freedom. The Negro public will appreciate your effort, if it can be got to them.
"The poem shows the commendable effort of the soul of one race to interpret the passion of another race. It is further proof that we are all human alike. Of course, nobody can interpret one race fully except that race itself."
Professor William Pickens is expected to oversee the circulation of the Poem in Baltimore, the State of Maryland, and all such meetings in which he appears.
Attorney Fred Mason, with office at 310 Germain Bldg., 224 South Spring St. Phones: Office, Pico 1138; residence, Bdwy. 1052, wishes to notify his many clients and friends, as well as those that may wish to call upon him for advice, which will be cheerfully given free of charge; you can always rest assured that I will properly advise you if you will give me the true information. That as a Lawyer with keen sense of my responsibility, I do not improperly advise a Court action in order that I may receive a fee, as I would much rather try your case and win it free gratis, than lose it for a big fee.

WELFARE ASSOCIATION
The story is short and soon told. A good Employment and Real Estate office is-building up by a complete and special order: so well known throughout Southern California to be one of the commercial points of labor of the South Western section of the United States. Very few Employment Bureaus of its size have so great a fame. This is the greatest business house of its kind throughout this country and abroad, and it is located on Central Avenue. It might have been during the war in 1918 that Central Avenue was failing but its predominance is none the less during times of peace, 1919, only when Mr. W. H. Sanders of the L. A. Railway Co., Chairman of the Welfare Employment Agency, 1001 Central Avenue and employer of colored help for the P. E. Railway Co. and others during the strike, placed over 300 of our men to work, taking some who never knew what work meant. We had a healthy, strong, stout, and poorly clad sleeping boy at the corner of 10th and Central, who was awakened by Mr. A. J. Brown, who placed him in Mr. Sanders' hand who in turn sent him to his home, 1863 Newton, where his brother

wife gave him a suit of clothes and something to eat, and prepared him to fill a position as a Pearl Diver, better known as a Dishwasher. On returning Mr. Sanders not knowing him said, "Sir, received with the greatest of pleasure, what will you have?" The boy seemed puzzled, as he felt he was ready for a position. To straighten it out, the young lady Clerk introduced the young man to Mr. Sanders, by telling him he was the one sent to his home to be clothed. This young man claimed he had shunned work for 7 months. Of course, this great businessman would not know him. From that day until this, the boy has been at his post.

History tells us that Los Angeles was discovered September 4, 1781. In 1790 there were 141 people here; th population being partly colored. The population grew gradually until in 1850 there were 1610 people. Constantly the Negro population began to increase, in 1910 there were 13,891 and in 1918 there were 30,000. The estimate for 1920 will be 50,154 people. In 1885 Kohler's Lane, the predominant Negro street, extended as far as 8th St., with Orange groves terminating it, while now it is changed to Colored Lane, (Central Avenue) with orange blossoms for its boundry. The discoverers of this great city were a small band of Pobladores composed chiefly of Negroes.

The Los Angeles Times, for so many years the Republican war horse for all California, seems to be gradually developing a friendly attitude towards the Democratic party.
It is said that Mrs. Wilson, while in Europe, caught the spirit of the nobility and now presents something of the queen-like appearance in dress and manner.
Our very worthy President, accompanied by his beautiful wife swept through Los Angeles and California last week preaching the doctrine of adoption of "Peace Treaty."
It is indeed a sad commentary that some of our people cannot stand prosperity; that the same will make them ungrateful, unfair and the more hyena-like for the lust of gold. This goes to some of our organization workers in great force.
Well, the knockers all went to bed when the mighty Simmons demonstrated that he at all times has the ears of the people; thus it will always be, so long as he continues in such an able and magnificent manner to present our cause. Of course we are all proud of Roscoe Simmons!
The sheet they send out from New York called the Messenger, will not get far in their policy of attack on individuals. This sort of journalism ranks with the Sunday Sun; the editors of which spent most of their time in prison for their scurrilous and inuendo attacks on their fellow men. The attack in their recent issue against our own honorable and appreciated citizen, Lieut. Journee W. White was unwarranted as well as unbelieved. We know him here best, and appreciate him because he went forth, made the grade and returned to us with all the honors and glories of the war. We will not sit idly by and allow such attacks by any journal, much less this self-named creation of sensation, with its avowed platform of near Red principle, without speaking up in defense of those who have not the opportunity to strike back themselves.
The editors of ve sizzling hot Messenger will not get far in their policy of attack on individuals: better far, that they would build up somebody on something then to attempt to tear down.
IF NOT—WHY NOT?
For nearly thirty-four years the Eagle has been suggesting, demanding and even pleading, for a united effort in all of the walks of life for our people, and as yet we are unable to announce any instance where our very own got together on any one big proposition save the erection of a church. Now, we believe in the church as both the proper social and religious center for any people or community, but unless men are being properly influenced by the church to walk together in business, as it were, hand in hand for the economic protection for his family and people. We are wondering if the church has the proper objective.
Often when we have heard men and women in church meetings cry out that they love Jesus whom they have not seen, the very soul within us has been set on fire because of the stress we entertain for ourselves and fellow men. How can we sincerely love Jesus and hate him? Hardly work made in his and our very own image to walk his byside of us in life. Men must learn that the Christ and God, if you please, that we profess to love so well
is the man and woman that you meet face to face every day, and not a far off God sitting somewhere on a throne where you too, some day shall go. This is the doctrine of the family which prepared to receive and entertain Christ whom they expected to appear in a chariot with gold chins and jewels about him, but who instead appeared as a poor beggar and who in turn was sent away because of his distress and poverty.
Where and to whom shall you do your arms? To your less fortunate brother; to man who has a false conception of real service to the woman who has started down the wrong lane in her search of true happiness; and finally, learn to be just to yourself and you can but be just to your fellowman.
THE PHILOSOPHY OF ROSCOE CONKLING SIMMONS' SPEECH AT TRINITY AUDITORIUM WEDNESDAY EVENING.
Has Roscoe Conkling Simmons been raised up to be the Moses of his race? This question is being answered nightly by the great throngs that flock to hear his message.
Like all great leaders, and spokesmen, Mr. Simmons is subject to criticism which he heeds not in his great anxiety to deliver to the people a message that if properly digested and accurately practiced will mean liberation for black and white citizen alike in this country. Mr. Simmons tells the truth when he says that in points of civilization with regards to science, art and literature, the American white man has surpassed all other peoples of the earth of the modern age, and says Mr. Simmons, "I admire him and reserve the right to hold him up as the ideal in mankind," but says he, "this unfinished model of this age's civilization is far from perfect.
For the past sixty years this man who has been able to gain so much of the wealth of the world, surpasses all others in his mastery of arts, science and literature has waisted much of his strength and energy, as it were, holding in the ditch of illiteracy his less fortunate brother who for 250 years he held as chattel slave, and of his own free will liberated him.
The American white man, with his ability to master and acquire has not yet learned the true philosophy of freedom; he has not yet realized that he too is in the ditch so long as he insists upon holding his black brother there.
In language that soothed the

Author and Lecturer who will appear at New Hope Baptist Church, October 14th, under the auspices of the Young Women's Missionary Auxiliary, on the subject: "WHY I AM A FRIEND OF THE NEGRO."
Mr Michel is author or, "The Tortured Negro or Gry for Justice," an Epic Poem that some day, when thoroughly digested by the literary world, will pave the way for the Negro's new freedom in America.
Everyone should hear this friendly Jew, October 14th, for he has a message worth while.

anxious mind into a peaceful state of hope, and good cheer, and sent the thoughts of the optimist sailing forth in the land of oblivion, Mr. Simmons painted the activities of the black soldiers in France in a word picture that shall ever occupy a conspicious place upon the walls of memory of the people of Los Angeles.
Roscoe Conkling Simmons is no coward, neither does he apologize for his people. He is pleading not alone the case of the black man, but also the white man's.
He called attention to the fact that in the police strike in Boston a few weeks past that of the seventy policemen who remained loyal, forty were black men; also that the Negro does not carry the Red Flag but in every instance have remained loyal to his country—and now, he is asking that the white man for whom he has always stood fast, turn his attention to the persecuted within his own borders.

Negro Race,
Negro Race, Attention
Never in the bloody history of the World. Never during the pathetic tragedies of the Race has a full-blooded Jew and an American citizen written the most stirring, the most truthful, the most thrilling original! and satutary Epic for the downtrodden and ostracized, but great and illustrious Negro people, until now, when a member of the ancient Jewish race dipped his pen into the martyred gore of both, he persecuted Jews as well as the tortured Negroes, and felt, lived and wrote an Epic Poem for the entire Negro tribe, in 6 Chapters of 10 stanzas in each chapter, 10 lines to a stanza and 600 lines in all!
1. This Epic will stir the whole country, White and Black, but it will blaze the way for the brotherhood of man.
2. This Epic will bring to America the tolerant unity of the races and the good fellowship of all mankind, peace, happiness and prosperity if it pierces through the hearts of men and is translated into real life, as the author feels it will and must be.
3. This Epic will be a revelation in our National life, a most cherished and priceless source of information for all humanity, a truthful pearl of undying literature, a most timely humanitarian lesson for all the peoples of America! This most realistic and most heartfelt as well as brain-enveloped Epic will stand as long as the world itself will stand!
It is copyrighted and can be secured by writing or telephoning to: LOUIS MICHEL, 1263 NORTH KINGSLEY DRIVE; TEL. HOLLY-WOOD 1894.
Price 25 Cents for single copy. What you have bought before was only one—the first Chapter, but the entire Epic has 6 Chapters, 60 stanzas, 600 lines and 20 pages of undeniably true, realistic, racially correct Poetry. A copy should be in every home in America!

‘dectinies ef some musicians. There
are many who start out to be one
thing and end up.by being another,
Harolt Baur started his’ career as
a concert violinist, but finding no
field for his work he was compellut
0 do piano accompanying, , There
was a good field at that time for pian-
ists, so he set to werk and the_result
ie that today he is one of the world’s
greatest pianists.
Fritz Krfeisler the violinist is also
a very clever pianist. Mademc Mar-
cella Sembrich is said to be as great a
Pianist as she is a violinist and as
reat a violinist as she is vocalist.
However, the public knows her best
as a singer. The great Galli Curci
whe is acknowledged a3 the foremost
living Coloratura, always waated to
be a pianist aud is said fo measure up
with some ‘of the greatest pianists.
‘On this point, she is quite sensitive
and prides herself am her merits as
“asl Were, tea te superiority
as a singer she might be heralded to-
‘day as 2 piano virtioso.
There are many others who started
as lawyers, doctors, tradesmen, ete.,
[who nave ended by becoming mus-
‘icians. ' q
‘Thus the hoy or girl whom the

‘The Girt: of Today.
+ We must admit that the styles of
today maybe has mofe to do with the
Present downfall of girls tham any-
thing else.
Girls: Do not let the so-called
styles dazzle your minds to the extent
of sending your soul to perdition.
See to it that the body God has made

wind and cold, so that your lives may
be yet spared to the. world. Some

ing, and what time tHey are coming
back. Mother sees them-go and per-
haps site down and cries from grief,
saying: “Mary or Jane‘is © sq stub-
born,” Let me tell you mothers, un-
ib you make up! your mind: to use
the red, if needs be on them, for a
girl or boy is never too old in my
estimation to be chastised if they do
wrong. Read what Proverbs has
to say on this, 13:24—“He that spar-
eth his rod, hateth his son: but he
that loveth him chasteneth him be-
times; 22:13—Foolishness is bound
in the heart of a child, but the rod of
correction shall drive it far trom
him; and (again 23:13—Withold
not correction from the child, for if
thou beateet him’ with the rod, he
shall net di@. Thou shalt beat him
with the rod, thou, shalt deliver his
soul from hel.
For instance motners and fathers:
You have horses. caickens and pfg-
eons; when darkness is coming on,
your first thought is that you. must
go and put them up, which you do.
You know where they are. What
wonderful Christian paremts in Los
Angeles to protect animals agd leave
your children unprotected!
Girls of today! be modest. sweet
and gentle, like our Colonial girls
were; for after all it pays to be
good.
Keep yourselves pure girts, your
lips aught to be so sacred that you
weuld not permit-a boy to kiss you,
until God sent you the ideal man to
walk beside you. Keep your kisses
for your husband. ~ >
The boy who comes around you,
takes you out, gives you presents,
hugs and kisses you any time he feets
like it, and then whispers in your:
ear, telling you how much he loves
you; when the time comes for him to
look for a wife, he wilt seek the girt
who has been kept in, the girl who
held her lips too sacred to be kiss
ed, the girl who dematided and got
respect. He Knows she will make a
good wife. While in all good faith
he might have considered you, but

regular lesson was had, a fine program was rendered and the pastor, through the courtesy of the State President B. W. Inghram, installed the League officers for the year. This was a unique and impressive affair, something new that was thoroughly enjoyed by all present. There was a great audience at this evening service. We hope that the League will give us more such evening services from time to time.

New Hope Baptist Church
The New Hope Church was blessed with two great services last Sunday. The Sunday School was largely attended. The adult bible class added three to its membership.
Pastor Reed preached at both services. In the morning his subject was: "A Fultis Cry;" his evening message, "The Goal of God's Word;" both subjects were beautifully handled. The Spirit of God accompanied each message.
We have been in the midst of a Revival meeting for the last ten days, conducted by the pastor. The results have been highly satisfactory. Two additions to the church have been had so far.
We are looking forward to a great meeting Sunday; special music by the Choir. The pastor will preach. His morning subject will be, "Secret Things Revealed." Financially this church remains on top.

Baseball is now the paramount thought in the minds of the nation's citi- nity. The coming Chicago and Cincinnati series, to deter- mine the world's baseball supremacy, is the sole topic of discussion. Next Wednesday, in the city of Cincinnati, the White Box will cross bats with the Cincinnati Reds in the latter's backyard, and until offe club wins five games the series will be the cynosure of all eyes.
This will be the fifteenth consecutive world's series under the auspices of the National commission, previous to 1905 there were post season contests between the American and National leagues, and as far back as 1880 the victors of the National league and the old American association used to get together, aside from the players, the games attracted very little attention, of the fourteen world series played, the American league has won nine and the National league five.
Up to 1910 the National league was the superior of the two leagues, but since that time the American league has taken everything in right excepting the contest in 1914 when the Braves kicked the Athletics's "dog" around for four straight wins; the world series is no novelty to the White Sox, this will be their third time to take part in the autumn series and to date have never been beaten in the supreme test.
While this is the Reds first experience in the title affair, many are of the opinion that this will prove a handicap to Cincinnati, but under the management of a seasoned leader like Pat Moran the men should be able to hold their own. The Reds proved that in its crucial series with New York that they would play championship hall before a record crowd, especially in their opponent's home town. With two games at home before going to Chicago, the Reds should enter that city a world heater for the next three games
The White Sox and the Reds play much the same style of baseball having a strong attack and a well-balanced defense. The sox are heavy hitters and there is no getting away from the fact that they are going to be hard to beat, their team batting announced a short time ago, is around the 245 mark. That is a remarkable record for a team, the critics claim that the Reds are a good club, but not a great one, they forget however, that the Reds are made up mostly of players that have been released from pennant winning and world series clubs, and can spring a vicious attack themselves and they are never beaten until the game is over and are always dangerous in the pinches.
Kid Gleason will have to depend mainly on Cicotte, his shine ball pitcher, and Claude Williams, his southpaw, to down the Reds. Cicotte has won 28 victories with seven defeats; Williams has a record of 23 wins out of 30 attempts; while Pat Moran's mainstays are Sallee, Reuthar, Eller and Ring. Sallee and Reuthar have been going great and have been setting them down without trouble, they are southpaws, Eller and Ring are right-handers and considered among the best in the National league.
Cincinnati's average is .264 which is more than 20 points behind the Fox's average for a team, the series is the biggest in the point of interest in several years, and by next Wednesday, the world will be "Basball Crazy."
THE L. A. WHITE SOX ARE
ROUNDING INTO FORM
Well folks, it won't be long now
before; we will be having some real
sport under the heading of baseball-
manager George Carr had his hire
land out last Saturday and Thursday
afternoons on the Violet Street
Playgrounds, for a real workout.
Brother George intends to have his
team in tip-top form before engaging
in a regular game, he is sparing no
gains in trying to get a team that
will be expected by the general pub-
The boys are rounding out in great joy, and to see them on the field in playing, it takes you back to the old days, when the Sox were in prime, winning over every that looked like a ball team; over Carr just received a letter from Carly Perry, stating that he is to come home and will leave us.
soon as he hears from him on return mail; Woods and Claxton are in rare form, and promise to have their opponents swinging at the ball like a gate.
Manager Carr has no pets or favorites, all he wants is a winning team, so you birds that have been telling everyone that you can play ball, now is your chance to show.
"BABE" RUTH RUNNING WILD WITH STICK
Babe Ruth, the slugging pitcher and outfielder of the Boston Red Sox, removed all doubt as to his ability to set a new world's record for home runs in one season by driving out his twenty-eighth circuit drive this year, he got his twenty-eighth home run in the ninth of the second game with the new York Yankees this week.
STEVE DALTON BEATS SHADE
Steve Dalton established himself as a favorite at Jack Doyles last Tuesday night by beating Billy Shade in the main event; Dalton won four out of four rounds; the Frisco boy was not in the form that he dispaleyed last week in his bout with Young George, while Dalton was at his best. He started in like a winner and took such a lead that Shade was unable to overtake him; Shade could not keep Steve's left lunch hook out of his bread basket, which caused him considerable amount of worry.
Dalton's best punches were a half awkward left swing to the face and a wicked left to the stomach, toward the end of the first round he sank two nasty lefts to Billy's dining room that shook the latter from head to foot. Shade tried to come back in the second, reaching Steve on several occasions with lefts and rights to the face, but Dalton moved up fast and the round was his by a small margin; in the third Steve got the old left to working again and had Shade rocking like a ship at sea, the fourth was Dalton's all the way. Steve tried hard for a knockout but tell short; Shade was bleeding from the mouth and nose and was pretty tired when the gong sounded. Herb Brodie and Young fought four rounds to a draw.
Leo Houck draws with Joe Brown in four rounds.
Jimmy Brenton beats Ted Frenchie in four rounds.
Frankie Munroe won from Gus Williams in four rounds.
Harry Beecher beat Mark Gay in four rounds.
JOHNNY KILBANE GRABS A SURPRISE PACKAGE.
When Johnny Kilbane, the feathenweight champion met Eddie Morgan the English featherweight in the main event at the National Athletic Club, last Saturday, he was greatly surprised when Morgan stood up to him and exchanged blow for blow; Morgan not only stayed the limit with the champion, but he fought so hard that Kilbane had all he could do to hold his end with the Englishman.
In the second round Morgan brought forth wild cheer from the crowd by landing a swinging left on Kilbane's eye; Johnny became angry and rushed Morgan to the ropes with a volley of lefts and rights, but Morgan fought back with a two-handed defense. Kilbane forced matters in the third, fourth and fifth rounds, but in the sixth Morgan stood toe to toe and swapped punches; he caught the champion with a right hand swing just as the bell rang which rocked him like a ship.
ANOTHER SAN FRANCISCO DUB
FAILED TO STARTLE.
Al Norton the Frisco "Ham" failed to make a showing in his fight with "Fighting" Jimmy Darcy of Portland, last Saturday. Frisco is trying hard to find a man that can beat Dempsey. They first had Willie Meehan believing that he could fight, until Bill Larue slammed him into slumberland for the count, then Laure was the candy kid for about two minutes, then Carl Morris knocked him up to a million. Finally they had to go and pick on poor Norton and chose him for the job, and he thought that he had a lamb when chosen little Darcy, but he turned out to be a "Ram." Darcy gave away several rounds to Norton, and then held him to a draw. Keep trying Frisco, maybe you will find one some sweet day that will qualify for a match with the champion; when he is a great, great grandfather, maybe.
WHIST CLUBS
Say, the Court House. Specials staged a comeback last week; it was a dirty trick, but Buster Brown says that all's fair in love and war so we should worry. After the wipe "Gle Qw!" had kicked the Specials "dog" around week before last to his heart's content, he perched himself on his favorite limb, and indulged in a quiet
enough with one eye open, but he forgot and closed both lamps at the same time, and what did he do that for? When the dust cleared away the once feathery bird' was lying on his back with both feet up to the sun looking like a pickled chicken. The Owl says that the Specials have rubbed his feathers the wrong way, so there will be a battle royal in the neighborhood of the "WHO" bird's roost, tonite, September 27th.
Kid: Bedney, the father Owl and his offsprings, are in constant training, so if you should happen to meet one of them on the street, and see him wink his eye or make a queer sign, don't get insulted and think that he is flirting with your beet girl, he's harmless, iron from the shoulders up, just rehearsing for the bout with the Specials.
FOOTBALL
Willie Maxwell, the half back of the Whittier State School eleven, is one of the best prep backs in the south. He weighs 150 pounds and has run the 100 yard-dash in 10 seconds flat. He played his first football for Whittier State six years ago, when he was 13 years old. At that time he played end and during the first four minutes of the Whittier-Oxy freshmen contest scored two touchdowns. Last year Maxwell was a big factor in the game in which his teammates and himself held the heavy U. S. G. Varsity to a 13-13 tie. Yesterday was Los Angeles High gridiron's first real test when they met the Whittier preps.
FIELD MEET
THE CHICAGO PLAYGROUND
ATHLETES HAVE MADE EVERY-
ONE TAKE NOTICE.
In a letter just received by Mr. H. E. Robertson, swimming instructor of the Y. M. C. A. we learn that the athletes of the Doolittle Playground have set a record that we are proud of; this article only gives the scoring of the preliminary meet, but the boy's averages were so high that they have clearly demonstrated that they are are masters of the meet, it is claimed that on several occasions the score keepers made miss-counts against the Doolittle Team, in order to offset their high averages, but that only made the boys try harder and run their scores higher.
Annual playground meet in the Hyde Park District, R. A. Lucas, director of the Doolittle playground, which is composed of colored athletes. The Doolittles had their opponents at their mercy and won with colors flying. They won the 220 yard dash; finished second in the high jump; first in the 50 yard dash and won the broad jump with 16ft, 7 ins. The Doolittle relay team crossed the tape in record time of 1:44, winning the relay team trophy.
Grammar School Division: Ernest Plummer 50 yds., 5:3; 220 yds., 25:3; high jump, 4:9; broad jump, 16 ft., 7 ins. Amiel Shrams, 50 yds., 5:4; 220 yds., 27:0; high jump, 4:7; broad jump, 15 ft., 1 in. Emmett Robinson, 50 yds., 5:4; 220 yds., 27:2; high jump, 4:5; broad jump, 15 ft. 7 ins. Albert Owens, 50 yds., 5:4; 220 yds., 26:4; high jump, 4:6; broad jump, 14 ft. 9 ins.

The San Diego Tennis Club will be greatly surprised and proud to learn that their beautiful young matron, Mrs. Walter Thompson, sister-in-aw of Miss Edith Thompson, who at the present time is visiting in this city, has taken to tennis with but one thought and determination, which is, to be the one that will be sent next year to compete in the Pacific Coast championship tournament. Mrs. Thompson is just rounding into her second week in the game, but to see her you would think that she has had at least six montas training; she has a good stroke, a fair serve and she is developing a drive which so few of our lady players ever try to learn, we envy San Diego for being so lucky as to have such a promising young player and not wishing you any bad luck, but we hope that in the near future Mr. and Mrs. Thompson will make their home in our city and be one of our large tennis "Family."
Our old pal Elroy Lott was out last Sunday afternoon on the Altha Courts and say, you talk about Kemp and Eddie Harris having a hard serve, you come out and see what Elroy has in store; he always had a good serve, but since his return from France it is better still. Say, that bird serves a ball so hard until you don't know whether it was a tennis ball or a bullet, for awhile we thought that he was sore at his raquet, and was trying to break it by hitting the ball, but we soon learned that it was his way of serving, he will be in constant training from now until the Thanksgiving Day Tournament, and according to the dope sheet he will be a stubborn and hard opponent for anyone who will be unlucky enough to draw him for a set.
It looked like a big tournament day last Saturday afternoon on the Alpha Tennis Courts, our prominent attorney, Mr. W. O. Tyler was out and believe us, he was hard to get along with when it came to playing the game, he noose our Little champion Miss Fern aldwell for his partner in the pubs and they are yet to be deated. Rubin Lewis and Ernest Byum thought that they had some soft when they challenged them a few sets, but they didn't have a chance; then along came Williamson, he was just dying for a crack Tyler and his partner, we don't what for, anyway Watson and un tried to make them bite the c and they are still trying, may in 1999 Watson will find someone he can beat, anyway, he doesn't in to be a tennis player; he is anructor, that's more than a flock girls around the Alpha courts can st about.
Miss Melvin Smith was also out
week, although she has been out
the game for some time, she has
forgotten her stroke, and it will
only a short time before she will be
taking trouble for our present lady
years. She is very active and can
er the court in nice style, which
ins everything in the game of ten-
fr. S. E. Johnson of Chicago, was
the Alpha tennis courts last Sat-
ay afternoon and demonstrated
that he was right at home when in
it company playing tennis; and
en we speak of fast company we
st not overlook Messrs. Phillip
ris, Paul Williams and Thomas
n; they played some very fast and
er sets of men's doubles.
Mr. J. Mason also of Chicago was and became very much enthused the way Messrs. Williams, Bain Davis knocked the old pill around he declared that on his next visit he courts he would be very glad to run his hand, with the racquet and see if he has lost his stroke. Miss Alva Caldwell was out last Saturday afternoon knocking the ball around in great style. Miss Caldwell is a promising young player and with
a little coaching and steady practice
she will make memories in her family
get up and go to hold their present
honors. What? Who is it in her
family that will have to get up and go
to hold their honors? Why, our beautiful little champion Miss Fern Caldwell.
You'll have to tip your lid to Mr. Henry Jones, (member of the Alpha Club) for as an organizer of tennis club, he's a bear.
After coaxing that tin lizzy of his to escort him to San Diego, he finally succeeding in weighing anchor in front of the home of the Misses May and Marguerete Hunter, two of San Diego's prettiest girls, where a prearranged gathering of tennis enthusiasts affixed their names to a set of articles and thereby became a real live wire, honest-to-goodness tennis club, and appointed little Henry (who was also allowed to cast his lot with the new club) as their representative in the Western Federation of Tennis Clubs, which organization they will join immediately. The names of the members are: Hazel Scott, temporary chairman; Maud Winston, secretary; C. Logan, court manager and supply clerk; Daniel Badget, Miss Goodwin; L. Robinson, Marguerite Hunter; May Hunter; Miss L. Hare; Edward Thompson; Arthur Banks; L. Wilson; Clarence Jones and Mrs. R. C. Plenty.
Yeah, boy! This outlook puts pep into the tennis situation indeed; now we will have an excuse to slip down next to the Mexican border every Saturday, as there are several dandy courts at the club's disposal, including the high school and municipal courts.
Letters from Ballinger Kemp and E. J. Peters tell of the terrible strain and handicap Kemp was laboring under, while shouldering the hopes of the whole West and possible criticism of a failure. Kemp is probably in the State at this writing, and we will soon have an opportunity to tell him how much his wonderful showing really is appreciated by every thoroughbred tennis supporter in the West. It is well-known that the water of New York often gives newcomers stomach trouble as it did Kemp, who had to have physician's attention the day before he entered the finals in doubles and mixed doubles, and even with this top-heavy handicap he and his partner played the wonderful national champions off their feet, although they finally lost; his strength had been sapped by the illness and could not be overcome. Many a man would have remained in bed but Bal's indomitable will power and sportsmanship forced him to try as long as he could summon enough strength to move a limb, for which we justly feel proud and we will all show it in no uncertain way, but by a warm and hearty welcoming reception.
Kemp was one of 105 men's singles entries, but in his weakened condition he played. Frank Jones a splendid player of New Hoehelle to a stand still in the opening round; score 2-6, 10-8, 7-5. There were 96 teams in the doubles event. Kemp and E. K. Jones of Flushing, wound up in the finals against the great Tilly Holmes, singles champion and Sylvester Smith his partner (underfeated champion) and after losing the two sets they staged a comeback taking the third easily, but lost the fourth; score 6-1, 6-1, 1-6, 6-3. There were 18 entries in Women's singles and 24 mixed doubles teams. Miss Rae of Jamaica retained the singles championship. This is the young lady the Easterners are clamoring to see our champ, Fern Caldwell pitted against next year. Miss Rae and Kemp met the 1918 champions in the finals, Miss Slowe and J. Wilkinson, and with this wonderful partner, had Bal been a well man the critics claim that we would have two new champions, but as it was they barely did save their crowns, as in the second set they were near defeat, so strong was Miss Rae's and Bal's defense score, 6-2, 7-5. Thus we have nothing to regret and no oplopes to make, both Bal and Pete did wonderfully well and we love them for same. —"Come to our arms boys!"
The Omega Tennis Club put up a splendid circus display at their show last Friday night, but club members and fans made a shameful showing of the regular tennis spirit, and we hope for better attendance to tennis affairs in the future. Scott Parker, a comedian and member of the Naval Reserve Force, was all that has sent of him laughs and should not be overlooked in these affairs. But whoever thought there was a good joke on laugh in Ernest Bynum's frame? That does save him laugh and begging for more and this
