WILLIAMS President. DR. J. D. GORDON GALLED. TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH. The big news of the week in religious circles is the almost unanimous call extended to Dr. J. D. Gordon by the Tabernacle Baptist church of this city. At a meeting of its members on last Monday night by a vote of 56 to six Dr. Gordon was again called to the pastorate of this church. Only recently after a 14 yeas pastorate at this church, Dr. Gordon decided to enter into the Evangelist field for a change and for the last few months he has been located at or near Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, he was only recently joined by his wife at that city. Dr. Gordon is one of the most brilliant pulpiters of his time, he has a strong personality, and a legion of friends who would never be satisfied nor content without him. It is said that Dr. Gordon has accepted the call and in the near future will again assume the pastorate of Tabernacle church. Full account of the Wilkes Stokes Wedding in our next issue. Mr. J.

S. P. JOHNSON About 200 guests wended their way to the Y. M. C. A. on Tuesday evening. Oct. 29th. to pay homage to Mr. and Mrs. S. P. Johnson on their 25th. (silver) wedding anniversary. The auditorium of the Y. M. C. A. MRS. S. P. JOHNSON was a masterpiece of the decorators art. Beautiful Ferns and large yellow Chrysanthems carried out the color scheme of green ad yellow. The bride and groom of 25 years with their family were seated in a picturesque arbor of lattice interwoven with ferns and small yellow buds and flowers. The Hightower orchestra furnished the music and they were at their best seated in the royal arbor was Mr. and Mrs. Johnson their eldest son Lijyod, the youngest son of the parents S. P. Johnson Jr. and Mr. and Mrs. Fatchett, the men were in conventional black. Mrs. Johnson was charming in her gown of grey... Mrs. Hatchett her sister made a stunning picture in her gown of black. Miss Eva the youngest daughter was a happy bluebird in her costume of blue satin and the eldest daughter Mrs. Naomi Santetisbane looked well the part of a charming young matron in pink and white. All the ladies present were lavishly gowned, displaying wonderful creations of the art of the modiste. Seated behind a long table spread with a M. immaculate white cloth were Mrs. M. Bain, Mrs. Ada Baker, and Mrs. S. F. Bain and these ladies received each pretty token of silver as each guest arrived. Punch was served to all by the Misses Ernestines Jones and Stevie Cox, while Mrs RELATES TRIP AC TO BAPTIST ACROSS THE CONTINENT TO THE BIG BAPTIST CONVENTION. The Providence of God as Seen Between the Two Oceans. On September 4th, accompanied by Father Holt, Bro. Hammock, Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Everly, I marched into the Santa Fe Station preparatory to beginning my third trip across the continent to attend the big Baptist Family in Convention assembled. At 9:00 a. m., true to schedule, I stepped aboard the Santa Fe train leaving on the first lap of a transcontinental trip extending to the sobbing shores of the Atlantic. The important features of the trip began to unfold as the view of Los Angeles is lost behind the smoky rim of towering mountains. Notwithstanding this my ninth trip across the continental divide, apparently new wonders and fresh sceneries oc-cupied conspicuous places and invited special attention and serious thought. My first thought was of Him in whose hands I must rest for these five days and nights and these howling shadows and death-blackened shades. With bowed head, I registered with Him and asked a room in the chamber of divine providence. While meditating and looking but upon unfolding scenes, I was starified by a voice out of the tower of providence, breaking through the vista of ages—"How wonderful are thy treasures, Oh God; in wisdom both them San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1919 THE OLDEST LARGEST AND LOS ANGELE BRATE WEDDING MR. S. P. JOHNSON J. O. Banks and Mrs. Viola Hubbard served each guest with generous portions of ice Cream and home made cake. Mrs. J. B. Bass as mistress of ceremonies gave a short review of Mr. and Mrs. Johnson's life in the city of Los Angeles for the past 14 years. She spoke of his service for the fraternists and for the workingmen, and his great service for the church. Dr. Prowd Mr. Johnson's pastor in his remarks spoke most highly of the great services rendered the church by Mr. Johnson and like testimonials were expressed by all of the various speakers making presentations for the various orders of which Mr. Johnson is a member. Mrs. Bass the mistress of ceremonies called for the various representatives to come forward and the following persons responded, Leut. J. White for Golden Rule Lodge, G. U. O of O. F. Mr. Jones for the labor Unions. Mrs. L. Williams for Olivet Lodge of Pasadena. Mrs. Thompson for Affectionate Chapter O. E. S. Mrs. V. Hubbard and Mrs. M. Williams for the Kansas and Missouri Club of which Mr. Johnson is the founder, Mrs. Jackson for Electa Chapter, Mrs. Thomas for Queen of Sheba Lodge, Mrs. S. A. Wright for Orphia Lodge of Santa Monica, Dr. Prowd and Mrs. Janie Williams for the 2nd Baptist Church. Before the evening was over the made them all." That God unfolds to man the things necessary for each age is clearly shown upon the canvas of human progress. I am further persuaded that man is incapable of reaching into the future and bringing things to pass in advance of its time; inventions and discoveries are not the product of a master mind, nor the finished labor of a selected few. Before the white haired Italian stepped aboard the deck of the Santa Maria and led the world to the contigents of America, races had succeeded each other in these newly found continents so well known to themselves. Here they lived, labored and prospered; pleased with the circumstances of the age. Here they enjoyed a rich civilization provided with all things conducive to happiness in the very land where we now boast of a matchless civilization. The autos were not for the mound builders, nor the airplane for the cliff dwellers: the fright-veiling orchards, treasure-giving mountains and railroads, shaking hands with two oceans of busy commerce, were not for those whose bones lie unveiled in our museums, nor for the Red Man whose kingdom was the open world, and whose genius-slipped from the how and hung upon the cord of colored beads. Yet, in their age, divinity provided as necessity required, all those met their fate at the end of a happy existence—Nothing new! table was glittering with silver ware brought by their friends, as follows: Kansas & Missouri Club, Silver lemon and tea set, Mr. & Mrs. G.

Ben Murphy $2. total $7500 Mr. Johnson made a speech of acceptance after being presented with each gift and at the close of the evening as each guest shook hands and departed, each one declared it a grand anniversary indeed. And my deduction is, that when this age shall have passed and a new era be rounded out in the cycle of time the present civilization, not suited to a new people, will sink in-foretime, establish a basis beyond our highest anticipation. Providence of God Portrayed Upon Nature's Cavean. While this is my ninth time across the continent, my vision was enlarged as never before. It was David who said: "The heavens declare the glory of." But this sentence may be so expanded as to include a further fact: "The earth portrays his providence and the many kingdoms rejoice at His benefits." No person whose mind is susceptible of impression can survey the country between these seams without getting a greater vision of the providence of God. As I passed through natural sceneries, beholding animal vegetable and the mineral kingdoms, with what precision each is consigned to its locality, I am caused to inquire as to the reason for things, I, like the sage say, "By the sword of my experience I demand explanation of the things not written in my book of memory." Proceeding upon the assumption that to everything there is a time and for everything there is a purpose, I opened up a council of investigation and began to inquire into these mysteries perpetually lingering upon nature's canvas. Why this variable, broken and uneven landscape, rising between these two waters? Its West Coast bordered with a fertile strip of land reaching almost from the equator to the pole, rich in beauty, glorious in harvest, wrapped in the mantle of perpetual sunshine and perfumed with tropical fruit? Why these rough ghost-like mountain slopes, torn by the hands of time until would THE LEADING RACE JOURNAL and canvons thundered with the echo of a forbidden age? Why this massive chain of upturned earth and oblique straters of crumbly rock, resumming the rains of ancient temples whose Gods in anger blasted their foundation, amid the tremble of a wrecked age? Why this foliage, green at the foot of these mountains, clambling like an seasia wreath, the precipitious sides until halted by the chilly veil of perpetual snow glistening in the sun. Light above the passing clouds? Why these barren deserts parched by the sun and whipped into a fog by the winds of succeeding ages? Why not drop the clouds in seasons and quench the thirst of this unfruitful land, with withering under the rays of a sun, which later skies the dew from the lilies in a well, watered land? Why these plains, with no forest nor murmuring brooks; no oaks nor home for the scorched? Why rob it of anady bowers and the music of winds upon the keys of resplendent foliage? Why visit certain sections of this vast area with snow and ice, chilly winds and the solitude of dreary winter, while others have beams of warmth and sainting breezes? To all this I find one reply. That in the economic scheme, He who made them all, has for each a purpose and out of each will have glory. Creation is peculiarly benefited by this peculiarly fitted world above the range of human reason, other than to conclude: "The Lord will provide." Why the deserts? These driftings sands only hide the sepulchers of a forgotten age. By the agency of winds and rain, these deserts are pulling down the mountains and making fertile fields for a new civilization that shall succeed this passing age. In this providence is making provision for the comforts of unborn generations who shall make the desert to blossom like a rose and the mountains to how their huge heads, and yield their treasures to the enjoyment of a favored kingdom of men and animals. The Mountains.—These are human watch towers, monuments of imperial greatness, astronomical ladders, on the rounds of which the geometrically computed distance by converging lines and the heat pressure. It is here we get the first experience of joy in the changing atmosphere which has contributed so much to the happiness of markind. Hence, the benefits provided in these "Mummies of the plains." Those Mountains are the vaults of the world's wealth. Every age has drawn from the inexhaustible supply to its satisfaction, and repaired to its slumberland in the vale of buried memory. Why these inexhaustable treasures stored in the skirts of bleak mountains, or hidden in the folds of sloping plains? OTHER BENEFITS Here, you see a snow reef upon the brow of a distant mountain, further down the sides you see spouting springs, further down you see a brook and on down you see a riverlet, then a stream; on down, a river—slas into the sea. What has this river done in its course? What has been the benefits to life, as like a silver thread it crest amid plain and jungle supporting life in a thousand forms. It came from the crest of yon mountains, from beneath that hat of ice, down the cheek o that master "Mummy" of the desert—Providence so provided. You see a black fog shooting from the bosom of earth amid the cheers of bryanders, a liquid cloud darkens the sun and falls in torrents on the earth around and flows away in placid streams. What is this? Providence has advised, and the inquiring mind has uncapped the reservoir of liquid mineral and foods of wealth pour forth from oil tankards in the garden of providence. This is provided for this age and this nation, while other undiscovered benefits await the coming of another generation. That the world is adjusting itself to meet the needs of a coming age, is evident, from every angle, and that every age has been simply provided for in evident, from the present development and the remains of an ancient civilization, new plumbering in the covered bed of the fossils. CLIMATIC PROVISIONS Knowing that man must inhabit every part of the globe, and that varying climates must form a boundary in the distribution of annual life. Providence provided for each in their terrestrial retreats in the subdivisions of terra firma. The ma of the tropics reaps his harvest and smokes the pipe of satisfaction before crackling winter fires, while the Eskimo in the zone of ice, chases the cold-blooded animals in the trail of sleet, under the dim sun, which looks upon him one half of each year, finds joy in warming himself in the ice walleys of his snow but amid the whistling winds. Providence provided the mountaineer with a keen vision, adjusted him to scarce air and sent a winged choir to cheer him in his solitary retreat. Providence tempered the beams of the sun to the nude frame of the Hotentot who parch their food in the sandumes of a sun-denied desert. Wonderful is He who can so provide and unhold. Upon this did my optimistic vision dwell as I passed through canyons, over rivers, by mountains, whose heads seemed to peep into the home of the thunder and whose shoulders seemed to push away fleeces of flying clouds. I veritably sat in the gallery and watched the scenes of forgotten ages pas sin review upon the canvas of speculative ideas. Why I Desired so Attend the Convention. The National Baptist Convention represents a deominational community consisting of some four million communicants in the United States alone and more than three million in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, South America and the Iles of the Sea. An aggregate of some eight million marching under the furls of Calvary's banner contending for the "One Lord, One faith and One baptism. Knowing the force, of the organization and the benefits to be derived from cotact, and feeling that the Baptist of California is an integral part of this stupendous whole, and that the absence of a delegation from California would place us in the doubtful column, as regards policy and principles of the Baptist Church. I desired to go, and in my feeble way make known to the brotherhood that there yet remained many in California who have not bowed the knee to Baal, nor compromised with the friends of creeds and cults. Again, I desired to go because of the inspiration one gains by contact and association of ideas. And further, because of those who are there—men and women of note, and ripe in experience in this religious conflict. Men and women, not of one race only, but of every race from every quarter of the globe. The fathers of the reconstruction period and ante-bellum days, champions of the cause of education and religion, with many supporters of the triple declaration which must stand without modification. Onto the Convention. My first day's journey closed as the evening shades lengthened upon a thirsty desert; the sun crept down the western slope of the pacific hill and the darkness of a night fell up on us. While there at joy in such privileges, the opportunity has its dark objectives and solemn meditations. Out from home and loved ones, exposed to the common incidents of travel, hurrying to the dizzy death and opening at every curve and swinging at the door of every tunnel, one's joy is greatly modified as he becomes more sensitive of his daring feat. NEEDED As the muddy waters of the Colorado walled by, we swept across the strand into the rugged ad barren lap of Arizona. Passing mountains which had looked down upon passing age and canyons which had eachched the treed of fest long ago turned to dust, we rushed into the Red Man's reservations and healed at Albuquerque, N. M. On to the Convention. The Iron House turned the head toward the THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP—NO MAN DOWN. NUMBER 39 FLOYD G. SNELSON JR. After an absence of nearly two years, we are pleased to have in our midst Floyd G. Snelson Jr., who was up to the time of his entering the service of the government, the hustling local editor of this publication. We regret that he is not in a position to resume that position at this time. However he was offered such a tempting position in the service of the Navy that he could not refuse and re-enlisted for three years. He has a host of friends who will be pleased to know of his success and he will carry with him their best wishes. Eagle readers will continue to hear from him as he circles the Globe. days and two nights of weary travel, the train man informed the sleepy passengers that we were nearing Kansas City. Leaving here under the cover of night, we rushed across the borders of Missouri headed for Chicago, the city watered by the Great Lakes and swept by the pleasing breezes of Canadian snows. A day and night passed, finally all head: out at windows began to nod welcome to dome, steeple and spire; rising from amid the accomplished work of art and genius living on the face of stone and steel. Reaching Chicago, Sunday evening we were told that we had a few hours to rest, and were yet more than a thousand miles from the camp ground of the great Convention. At 8.10 we left Chicago under the cover of night, over the Pennsylvania line at a rate of speed calculated to make even the righteous feel more humble and a littl uneasy. Having put seven states behind us, we now pushed on to the famous State of Indiana. Ohio next made us welcome, then came the busy State of Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh, the great steel manufacturing city now calmed as and while resting we looked over the city, made many acquaintances and saw much to the credit of this city of iron and smoke. O to the Capitol, Harrisburg; a beautiful city came under our notice. The State house made of marble and fashioned by hands long ago turned to dust, spoke out for the descendants of Pennsylvania and the Quaker family. Youngstown, the scene of the great flood which claimed three-fourths of the population of this city, showed itself in reconstruction garb as we rushed over the river and into the mountain pass. On we went, circling mountains, sweeping through tunnels, spanning streams where the early settlers built their camp fires and watched the dawn not a greater civilization. Philadelphia's gates new open and we entered, consolled in the fact that we were nearing the big meeting on the border of the great ocean. (To be continued) IN MEMORIUM In loving memory of our dear mother, daughter and sister, Mrs. Mirandia, Dogins, who departed this life November 7, 1918, at the family residence, 941 E.

What promises to be the greatest evangelistic campaign ever held in Los Angeles will begin this Sunday afternoon at Hamilton M. E. Church, 18th St. and Naomi Ave., under the auspices of Phillip's Chapel, Hamilton and Wesley Chapel Methodist Churches. Rev. S. M. Beane, will deliver the sermons. You will miss a treat if you do not hear every one of his great sermons. The united Choirs of the participating churches will lead the singing under the leadership of Prof. W. V. Howard. All of the participating churches are well organized for the campaign and things will start with a hum. All Christian workers of the city are cordially invited to attend these services and will be given an active part in them. Come and let us start a campaign that shall not cease until thousands in our city have been brought into the kingdom of God. PHILLIPS CHAPEL C. M. E. CHURCH, 1406 Newton Street Rev. J. C. Anderson, Pastor. Two inspiring and soul satisfying services were held at this church on the past Sunday. The pastor preached at the morning service to a full house. The Holy Spirit was present in demonstration and power and blessed the service. There were two additions to the membership at this service. The singing of the Choir was one of the pleasing features of this service. The Choir of this church always delights with their spiritual singing. The pastor preached at the evening service also to an attentive audience. Taken as a whole, the day was very profitably spent in the service of the Lord. The members are looking forward with joyful anticipation to the revival services which will be held at Hamilton M. E. Church, corner of 18th and Naomi Sts. The congregations of Wesley Chapel, Hamilton M. E. and this church are combining their forces in a great drive for souls. The revival will begin with a great Love Feast and consecration meeting to be held at Hamilton on Sunday afternoon at three o'clock. The morning and evening services on the Sabbath will be held in our own church as usual. The pastor will fill the pulpit at our regular services. Strangers and visitors are always welcome. Come where the old time fire is burning. ST. PAUL BAPTIST INSTITUTIONAL CHURCH 21st and Naomi Avenue The services on last Sunday were largely attended and very, very interesting. Rev. Arline made a short talk in the morning but most of the time was given to the saints in a covenant meeting; the Holy Spirit was certainly there, each person rejoiced in the God of their salvation. Pastor Holt preached a powerful sermon in the evening, using as a text a portion of the 17 verse of the 27th Chapter of Matthew—"They said, Barabas;" Subject: "A Bad Choice." Take Jesus, He made it plain why one should choose Christ as their Savior; a sermon full of "food for thought" as Pastor Holt always gives to his hearers; after the sermon one came forward seeking membership. The pastors of the various churches with their congregations are expected to help us in our $1000 Rally on next Sunday, as St. Paul will not only be a credit to the Denomination but to the entire race. Come one, Come all. SECOND A. M. E. CHURCH 1736 East 53rd St. Rev. R. House, Pastor. Sunday School at 9.30 a. m.; Preaching at 11 a. m.; Subject: "The Unexplained Word;" A. C. E. League Service at 6.30 p. m., Topic: "How to Avoid Failure," Josh. 1:1-8; Preaching at 8 p. m., Subject: "Progress." There will be an afternoon service at three o'clock, Rev. A. M. Ward, pastor of the first A. M. E. Church will be the speaker of the hour. Come over and help us. You are cordially welcome to the services of this church. Rev. A. P. Shaw, Pastor. Sunday was a great day at Wesley. The pastor preached excellent sermons morning and evening. Appropriate to Home Coming Home congregation were present at both services. Five persons united with the church. THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Brother Stout reports fine services at the Pullman Mission. There were four conversions. This Sunday is Choir Day. The Pastor's morning sermon will be on "The place and importance of singing in Worship;" evening sermon, "Some touching incidents in the production of some of the great hymns." Don't miss any of the services of the day. THE A. M. E. ZION CHURCH— 1209 $\frac{1}{2}$ Central Avenue The Conference just closed returned the former pastor to this church to complete the building now under course of erection and to fill another year's appointment. The burden of the administration will be evangelization. New opportunities will come with the completion of the new building. The hour of services; Sunday School, 9.45 a. m.; Preaching 11.00 a. m. and s. p. m.; V. C. E., 6.30-7.30 p. m. Visitors always welcome. If you are here without a church home, come we can help you if you are looking for church work, you can help us. Full announcements of services will be given each week. SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH 740 Maple Avenue Rev. H. D. Proudt. Pastor All present enjoyed the Sunday School session last Sunday morning. The Subject Lesson was that of Test. The children of Israel measured, in point of obedience, with the Rechabites—a simple, abstemous, and altogether virtuous people. The teachers made good impressions on the children as well as the grown-ups. At the 11 o'clock service the Pastor spoke briefly on knowing God as our Salvation, Protector, and Friend. This was merely to open the door of expression by the people of real Christian experience. All who took part gave vent to their innermost fellings in thankful rehembrance of the goodness of God. The strangers and visitors received the most hearty welcome by the pastor and members. The young people held their usual session in the evening and had a spirited meeting. At night the Lord's Supper was observed. We have a special message for you this Sunday—Come out and hear it. In the evening Captain McKinney who will shortly leave for the Philippine Island, will address us. Let all come out and hear our brother. LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGREGA TIONAL CHURCH 31th and Central Avenue Glorious services were held at this church throughout the day on last Sunday. Following an excellent session in the Sunday School, the pastor occupied the pulpit and brought a helpful message using as his text: "Know ye what I have done to you?" John 13:12. At the evening service the message was on the text: "And let us not be weary in well doing for in due season you shall reap if ye faint not." Gal. 6:9. Many members and friends were present and partook of the Lord's supper which was administered at both services. There were four accessions to the membership of the church during the day. This Sunday, November 9th promises to be of unusual interest. The pastor will occupy the pulpit morning and evening. Morning subject: "Facing the Whole Task;" evening, "Discomfort at the Gate of Heaven." This is pew-filling Sunday.

ZION BAPTIST CHURCH 3rd and Traction Rev. S. W. Brooks, Pastor.

This Sunday School is growling and everyone is invited to pay us a visit. Rev Brooks text for the eleven o'clock service was "Come now, let us reason together." Isa. 1:18. The evening service was well attended. A cordial invitation is extended to all strangers to come and worship with us. PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST— Cor. 18th and Paloma Sts. Rev. N. P. Greengs, Pastor. Write a large congregation worshipped with us on last Sunday. Holy Communion was administer and great was the sacredness of the hour. Our pastor spoke from Philippians 3:10—"That I may know Him and the power of His Resurrection and the fellowship of His suffering, being made conformable into His death." Paul knew what it was to be resurrected from death into life. He knew his Redeemer lived because of his personal testimony which no dying man could give. Let this one thought be impressed upon your minds today, know Christ, don't merely get acquainted, with Him, but have a personal knowledge of Him and you will have life. In the evening the text was continued. This message was filled with power, and loud were the praises that came from the congregation. Five accessions were recorded for the day. Total collection $201 33. The Fourth Quarterly Conference opened on last Monday evening, November 3rd, with devotional exercises by Bro. N. Price.

The results at the Polls on last Tuesday are anyhing but reassuring to President Wilson and his party; it is but the beginning of the end when the Democratic party will be shelved for all time to come. If you think Hiram Johnson is not a political giant all over this country you have another thought coming; he is the people's man and the people are with him all the way even up to the White House. Well what little show that our President had of carrying things as he wished, went glimmering when the Eos Angeles Times wobbled to his support. The Times has an unbroken record for backing losers. No, Mr. President, politically you are a dead Duck. The Times Did It. We too are proud of the splendid victory for law and order in Massachusetts, and we also notice the splendid congratulations from our President to Governor Coolidge on his victory, and then we wonder why our President is not equally as solicitous as to Law and Order in Texas, Mississippi, Arkansas and other lawless Southern States which butcher women and children simply because they are black and defenseless. A straw here and there shows what the people think of the League of Notions, and the big guns are just too sharp to let the people have a fling at it, for if they did they would knock the whole thing into a cocked hat in jig time. But they, the people, will wait in patience and by and by they will be heard in no uncertain tones, and when they do speak it will be for America by Americans. We have been to Colorado, Kansas, Illinois, Missouri, Oregon, Washington and other commonwealths recently and visited many of the state capitals, in all of them we find the administration has seen fit to give to all classes of its citizenship due recognition, having witnessed this in all the other states we made up our mind to come back to California and ask Governor Stephens and Mayor Snyder, what is their holdback. OH THOSE HEADLINES. It was a very nice sentiment and an especially strong article in a recent Sunday's issue of The Times, telling of the injustice of the South against the Negro. It is harder still to note this sentiment, this good word spoken and turn right over on another page and note the big headlines carried which announce some fancied crime committed by some unoffending black, who is defenseless and is not given a chance. These headlines manufacture more prejudice than the Southern red neck and cracker possesses, and is far reaching. It is admitted that the riot in Washington was caused by the pernicious headlines of the Washington Post, also at Chicago, and a direct line of the same situation in Omaha as the result of the glaring and misleading headlines in the Omaha Bee. Now, it has been said that these headlines as a caption to Associated Press News are a part of Southern propaganda, purposely played up to underrate the Negro, that it is not always even in the province of the management of the party to present it. We are sure we do not know this to be true, but we do know that the most trivial offense committed by a black man with only fifty cents of civilization is played the limit with glaring head- lines all to the detriment to a loyal and struggling race. We appreciate the good things which are true in every respect in the recent Timse editorial, and we would indulge feel happy if this paper should live by the spirit of the same by eschewing the habit in vogue of playing up the untoward happenings, especially when as a matter of fact it is only propaganda. SHOULD THERE BE A DOUBLE STANDARD? Should there be one standard for men and another for women? is a question that has for a long time turned over and over in the minds of some people, and in some cases breathed strongly a desire for expression. The average American girl has grown accustomed to the expression—Let the boy sow his wild oats, but look out for the girl by all hazards, she should be protected. In moulding this sort of sentiment they did not stop to think that a man never sinks to the bottomless pit of moral degeneration without taking a woman with him. Results of the Double Standard However, after dyeing body and soul black with the sin of immorality, the man comes forth disguises the outer self by resorting to the latest fashions, and cuts, knocks at the door of Polite Society, which in turn throws wide its arms and offers him a pick from the purest and best. Some innocent girl becomes victimized by his cunning displayed in every little act on his part. He is characteristically kind, perfectly sincere and rather frank; he is a polished gentleman from the crown of his head to the soul of his feet—so thinks the madam/fair. So well does this villain play his roll, until at times he believes in himself. But alas, the old mean self comes to the surface; he realizes that his victim is safely within his clutches, and like the spider and the fly he takes her into his den. Society gets the news, the young woman is ostracised, but the villain is allowed to continue to prey upon society until at last he is broken in health and decides to settle down, and his last act is to become the father of a diseased generation. The Standard The standard for men and women should be one and the same and not until it is, will there be a moral house cleaning in our modern society. "THE NEGRO SOLDIER." "Every plan to Congress as the basis for a system of universal military training contains the War Department's estimate that approximately 690,000 boys will be available for instruction annually. At least ten per cent. of this number are Negroes. So far as we have been informed, the advisability of training the Negroes as combat troops has not been questioned at the War Department or at the Capitol. Secretary Baker has said nothing on the subject. Nor have General Mrach and his advisers at the War Department. Consideration of the legislation is proceeding upon the assumption that no reason exists for differentiating between the races. "Much has been said and much written in praise of he exploits of our Negro troops in France. Newspaper and magazine writers have found in "Young Black Joe" a ready vehicle for exploitation. Race propagandists (with a purpose) featured him. Estimable ladies and gentlemen, imbued with a praiseworthy desire to minimize racial antipathies, have found in his patriotism the base for many heroic stories. "We wish these reports and stories were accurate. We wish there were no compelling reason for revealing the truth. But there is. Distasteful as the task may be, it is essential that the facts be presented. Legislation based upon the hypocritical unwillingness of assessing the true value of the Negro as a fighting man, must inevitably lead to waste of great sums of Government money in training man whose record proves them incapable of meeting the demands of modern warfare.

BUFFALO REALTY COMPANY 25 PHONE PICO 297 The Ninety-second Division was organized in November, 1917, and was composed of the best Negroes drafted. It was the only Negro division sent to France. Originally all company officers were Negroes. The commanding officer and field officers were regulars, assigned to the division because they had seen service with regular Negro regiments. As the training proceeded, the Negro officers in the artillery and engineer regiments were relieved by white officers, because of inefficiency. "The average period allotted for training white troops in France was four weeks. The ninety-second was kept in the training area seven weeks. On August 20th or thereabout, the division, minus its artillery, was ordered to a quiet sector in the Vosges, where it remained one month, and then moved on to the Argonne as part of the great concentration preparatory to the last major action of the war. eighth Rergiment, which was "With the exception of the Three Hundred and Sixty-eighth Regiment, which was ordered to the front line, the division was held in reserve with the First Corps. The Three Hundred and Sixty-eighth was assigned to the Thirty-eighth French Corps, and directly flanked the Seventy-seventh American Division. When the advance was ordered, the French and the Seventy-seventh moved forward on schedule. The Three Hundred and Sixty-eighth broke. The French commander and the commander of the Seventy-seventh reported that their forces were being attacked on the flanks because the Negroes did not go forward. The Negroes refused to obey orders, but in several instances the white field, officers forced small groups of them to go forward. As a result of this action, thirty-one Negro company officers were immediately removed for cowardice and inefficiency. Five of them were tried for cowardice, and, while the decision of the court is not available, it is understood that they were sentenced to be shot." A few days ago this article which we are publishing in part, was brought to our attention. Now, we can't say that we are thoroughly acquainted with this "Harvey's Weekly," from whence it comes and we are somewhat surprised to find any periodical coming from the same source as "The North American Review," and published in New York, the home of the far famed 15th Regiment, dealing with such stuff.

If he had discussed the Ninety-second Division we possibly could have excused him on the ground of ignorance, but as it is we can only see deep-seated prejudice woven carefully into his work with but one intention; that of poisoning the mind of the National Government with regard to its plan to train 690,000 boys, ten per cent. of which he admits are Negroes. The author of "The Negro Soldier," as it is printed here, is either densely ignorant or absolutely blinded by prejudice. If he would read history with unprejudiced eyes he would know that the Negro in the original is not a coward. His African forefathers who are fathers of early Roman civilization built the Pyramids and carved their own features into the Sphynx. The Negroes who were captured off the West Coast of Africa and brought to this country and sold into slavery, did not represent the royalty of the fatherland, but even they have proven to the world that they are not afraid to die for a country that suffers them to be burned to the stake. Way back in the days of the Revolution Crispus Attucks demonstrated what caliber of soldier the Negro, schooled in 250 years of slavery, would make when he stepped unbidden by his white companions and spilt his blood first for freedom, not for his own kind, but for all Americans. "In 1863 General - David BRANCH OFFICE 20515 A. ? 5126. Good Wages Employment Agency Of All Kind 102 South Spring St Hunter, commanding the army in the South, was given the honor of organizing the first Southern Colored regiment. He could not get white recruits and was surrounded by a multitude of able-bodied Negroes who were idle but anxious to serve as soldiers. In advance of public opinion he organized a regiment and was called to account for it by the Secretary of War. He replied that he had instructions to employ all loyal persons in defense of the Union, and the suppression of the rebellion, and hence was not limited as to color. 'They are eager beyond all things to take the field and be led into action; and it is the unanimous opinion of the officers who have charge of them that in the peculiarities of this climate, and country they will prove invaluable auxiliaries.' So you see, Mr. Author the Negro started in the Civil War on the Union side as an auxiliary, but before the close his services as a soldier were so valuable that even the President of the Southern Confederacy enlisted an unlimited number. History has been compelled to feature the Negro with Jackson at New Orleans, Roosevelt at San Juan, and his late march into Mexico, and you may read what the French say concerning the Negro as a soldier in the late world war. I guess Uncle Sam knows what he is about when he trains his black soldiers, and methinks that he thinks that your opinion in the matter amounts to a drop in the buck. et.

USE A MASTER 11 [Image of a person] Gosh! Say guy have you seen officer Green or any of his lambs—? hey hail a goat but the Y" boys got that, there is a busy bunch in the rear of the Y. M. C. a making mint "Lambs," when they take them into camp next Saturday afternoon. Oliver, Green Is a good sport, he looked defeat in the face with a smile, and asked for a return match for next Saturday, which was granted. Officer Charles Bundy was out in left field singing em, telling us what would happen if he was in the box. But we noticed that no one had to hand cuff him to keep him out. Even when their side would be at bat, and retired on three outs, he would walk just as far from the pitcher's box as he possibly could without leaving the lot. Maybe Charles is a pitcher, maybe he is a good one, but he sure stayed out of the pitcher's box last Saturday afternoon. Oh, tell us why? Plennoy is a fair pitcher when right, but last Saturday he left his stuff at home, what ever that is, you know what a pitcher puts on a ball. He brought his bible among instead, therefore he only had a ball and a prayer, believe us he wore that prayer out. He was game, he tried all the time never giving up. Rob Johnson was out in center field in a good man's way. We think that he caught one fly, it wasn't his fault the balls didn't come anywhere near him. At that Bob is alright, we like him or we wouldn't talk about him. For the first four innings the Law didn't have any idea what third base looked like; when one of those birds did get to third and had a chance to score he turned and ran back to second, that being his first time so far from the home plate, he became excited, and tried to make it back to where he started from, by the same route. He was relieved of his misery when he found the ball waiting for him on his return. Officers Frank White and Wm. Clark had good horse sense and stayed clear of Slauson. You can't blame them they saw the writing on the wall. Thomas Shores back stops, was on the receiving end for the Officers, he became angry after several attempts of trying to knock the pill out of the "Y" boys' reach, so he shut his eyes, made a healthy swing, landing on the eipher for a home run over the left field fence. Bynum made a run for it, but didn't have a chance. Golly, you talk about a bird singing 'em. Bynum wins the purse; out of four trips to the plate he got' one hit, so he had to find some excuse, poor boy! — the bats were too heavy and he couldn't swing them. At that he was a pretty fly duck out in left field until a beautiful young lady over in the grand stand, where he camped at every opportunity, told him he would make a better boiler maker than a ball player; that was the last time we saw him until the next day. Bluett pitched a fair game for five innings then caught hold of Flennoy's foot ad the two made the ascension together. Jessie Turner then took up the burden for the "Y" until time for press he had a compass and telescope trying to locate the home plate. Maybe if he would find a guide who is familiar with the Slauson grounds they can find the location by next Saturday afternoon's game. After Tommy (Tub) Shores put the pill over the left field fence for that home run, Chief George Homes peace guardians made life miserable for Manager Steward's pets until C. Wood came to the rescue and set them down in nice style, the last two innings. Officer Russel was about chirping that the "Y" had to pitch Wood in order to save the day. he forgets that his team used Shores. Willie Maxwell was in the Y. M. C. A line up. Say guy, maybe you think that that bird can't play base ball; he's got him. Say, Lawrence Parker is on regular as umpire, he is pretty good, but the sun won't let his "dogs" alone. The Sun heated his pet dog so hot until it was forced to tell him that if he didn't make it for a shady spot and sit down he would raise so much noise that someone would or walking home in their stocking feet. Take it from us, Lawrence sit down. Well, cut all the kidding out, the two teams were well matched, the Police have a very good team and is worth anyone's consideration when challenging them for a game. When the "Y" team meets them next week in a return game, there is going to be a fight from the start and it is a toss up who will win. L. A. WHITE SON DISPLAYED THEIR OLD FINE FORM Pitcher C. Wood Strikes Out First Eleven Men to Face Him. The L. A. White Sox played their first regular game last Sunday afternoon with the Hazard nine at the Hazard playgrounds, since reorganizing. What the Sox didn't have isn't worth speaking of. Their fielding was near perfect; at bat they hit the horseside until they felt sorry for the Hazard pitchers, and to save the fielders the worry of trying to catch the long fly. The Sox resorted to home runs or no count. Sorry there was a long hundry looking gent by the name of Jack Mendenhall who played right field for seven innings, then he relieved Wood in the box. Say guy, if you could have seen that bird pitch, he reminded you of a big side wheel on an old river boat, when he started to wind up, then he would double up in a knot by the time he got straightened out the ball would be in the catcher's glove, not allowing the batter a chance to see the pill. With a little more coaching Jack' will be a world beater. For a sticker he can't be beat, in Sunday's game out of four trips to the plate he got two triples, a double and a single. As a whole the team is made up of all hard hitters that spell trouble for any pitcher that faces, them. Hawkins who is holding down he third base birth is a wonder; at bat he is a sure sticker on bases, he is a gray hound, in his position at third he is perfect. Manager Carr has a well-balanced team which should give all the Semi-pros all the base ball they are looking for this winter. We now have a team that is worth our backing, so it is up to the public to show appreciation by attending their games and help keep Los Angeles on the map in the sport world. Their next game will be with the Downey team, Sunday, November 9th at the Downey playgrounds. Take Downey car, get off at grounds. Y. W. C. A. GIRLS ARE GETTING Yeah. Bow! Maybe you think the road won't be hot, between here and Venice on the 30th of this month. Well, it you have your doubts just you call up Miss Caution of the Y. W. C. A. and hear what she has to say. We would tell you in this article but we can't spell it. How would you like to win a beautiful Loving Cup for first prize or a Suji Case for second; if you won't take those, well, here is the third prize, a lady's hand bag—now take your choice. There will be no entry fees, just come ready to hike and win a purse if you are man or woman enough to step around the "Y" girls. Owing to the high cost of living this year, Turkeys will be scouting up around the moon and stars this season, so everyone should be in rare form for the step. Have your return car fare in your jeans for the "Y" don't furnish that. The distance is 18 miles, but if you wish to make it thirty-six that is your business, not theirs. Just where the Y. W. C. A. got the name of Sugar Plum for the "Y" boys, we do not know; made they fell heir to the name because they were afraid of getting wet on the "Y" girls truck ride to Bruce's beach. Any way that is what the "Y" girls call them, and it is up to the boys to find a new name for themselves. WILL SOMEONE PLEASE PAGE THE Y. M. C. A. BOYS? Mysteries of all mysteries Where does Secretary Greene and Secretary Steward hide their boys on Saturday nights? All week long as soon as the hike or truck ride was mentioned, one of Secretary Steward's "Sugar Plums" would say: "Look for me, I'll be there with bells, belt and uniform." Saturday evening comes and we begin our visit of watchful waiting, but it's no use for Secretary Greene has frowned and Secretary Steward has "vamooosed" to a corner with his pie to see if it contains another plum and all the other "Sugar Plums" have hiked off to bed, so the Y. W. C. A. girls must journey to the beach alone. Well, I guess not alone—for there are others—and they joined us and such a jolly bunch they were; why, they can speak French, cook weiners, take pictures, build fires and everything. Sugar Plum--A kind of candy in the form of a ball which will dissolve when a drop of water touches it. COUNTY VS. Y. M. C. A. IN PRAC. TICE GAME. The Y. M. C. A. and County teams will meet this afternoon in a practice game on the Violet St. Playgrounds.

Clark will be in today's lifeups and promise to redeem themselves for being absent last Saturday. Clark and White are both heave stickers and should prove a pain to the Hazard slab artists. Take any red car on San Pedro St. going north excepting the short line, get off at Covena Junction, walk two blocks north. The game will start at 2 p.m. sharp. Y. W. C. A. WILL STAGE A SHOW ARMORICE DAY. The Y. W. C. A. will stage a regular show, Armistice Day, November 11th at the Y. W. C. A., E. 12th St. The show will start at 8.30 p. m.; Admission Free.

RAMSEY WINS LATONIA CHAMPIONSHIP Joe Robinson Offers Prize in New Turmament—Latonia Club to Play Midway Handicappers. In what proved to be the most exciting games of the series, in the Cup race of the Latonia Horse Shoe Tournament, was witnessed last Sunday on the grounds of Harry Hall, when Al Ramsey defeated Luther Runford in three of the closest and interesting games of the series, giving him twelve straights, without a defeat and ending the Latonia Championships. In the second game of play, Runford ran up a score of 18 to Ramsey's 3, assuring him of the first victory over the latter, but by good head work and clever pitching, the latter held his opponent to a standstill and defeated Runford in a most surprising game of 41 to 18; the third game was taken with less trouble. The proposed Midway Tournament, which is scheduled to start Sunday, November 9th, will prove of much more interest than the one just finished, as many new players have expressed their desire to become members in this once famous sport, Joseph Robinson, proprietor of the colored pool room of this city, has offered a handsome prize to the winner in the next tournament, besides a prize which will be offered by the Latonia Club. Al Ramsey, through this paper, issued a challenge to the once famous champion, L. J. Shores of Los Angeles, and will play him during his visit to the Angel City, the latter part of December. P. L. Moore who started and finished at the bottom won his first and last three games by defeating F. T. Anderson. Hall won from Kirve two out of three.

WATSON So this is Better Speech Week, eh! Well; we don't think much of the thing, since our vocabulary or private stock of parliamentary usages, hypothetical terms and grammatical tongue twisters are dangerously overtaxed this week as a result of the "bad lingo", crusader's assault upon what is considered at other times perfectly good American grammar. However, here goes— The Western Federation of Tennis Clubs really placed the country club campaign upon its feet in a business way at its meeting. Monday night, by placing the whole proposition bodily into the hands of 15 hard-headed, deep thinking business men, who are determined to build the swellest race structure of its kind in the country. The opening guns will be sounded at a meeting to be held by this body at the Progressive Business League rooms, 1291 Central Avenue, Saturday night, November 8th. If you are interested, meet with us, but don't come heavily armed with a pocket book, we'll procpure that later we want your good ideas and suggestions first.

Courts, 2834 Stephenson Avenue. Boyle Heights. It has been decided that only three championship events will be staged—Men's and Women's Singles and Mixed Doubles. Two exhibition matches of Men's and Women's doubles will be pulled off between events to keep the enormous crowd from surging onto those splendid cement courts also Mr. Thos. Bain has promised upon his honor as a first class sporting goods salesman to have an all-star match of imported white tennis sharks, which will be well worth missing the old turkey and cranberries to see. Official adviser Kenip and referee Dunn are planning to rule with an iron hand, so lean close and let this bite of intelligence percolate through your athletic cranium. The three Los Angeles County championships will be established and handsome, medals will be given the winners; the entry fee is 50c for each event; all players must be entered at least one day before the tournament. The drawing will take place the day before the tournament, and all the late birds will miss the little worm and lastly but by no means least, d-o-n-t—expect to play unless you are dolled up in regular tennis togs, as the Federation intends to enforce all these rules hereafter.

Watson, Press Agent Western Federation of Tennis Clubs. 1474 E. 23rd St.; South, 5218. One of the main characteristics which serve to distinguish the difference in quality between one artist's performance and another is Tone. Few persons realize that mere technical proficiency does not make a great artist. Tone is magnetic, hypnotic and colorful. The quality depends upon the number, kind and strength of the vibrations that go to make up this tone. Thus, the manner in which a key is struck, or the way in which a bow is drawn across the strings, or the pressure of the lips, or the control of one's breath are some of the fundamental things that go to produce a good tone. Tone must have color, roundness and carrying power. Very often a performer will force or strain in effort to get a larger or more powerful tone, or, in an effort to get a sofe one, will produce something absolutely devoid of color and carrying power. Strength and control of the muscles are essential requisites in its production. Emotion, intelligence and a cultivated ear are prime factors in its development. Intelligent listening to the world's greatest artists in their rendition of the best music cannot but help the aspiring student to acquire a good TONE.

The Sergeant had many months of service in France and was about to go over the top when the armistice was signed. In his lecture to the people he told of some of the injustices, which the Colored boys were subjected to and concluded by giving a touching tribute to the Colored boys of the United States Army. In part his speech was as follows: "Four years ago, the word adjusted itself to the gigantic business of murder and destruction and the crises in our nation's affairs took vast multitudes of our young black men. Over night they were turned into heroic, firm-jawed, dauntless sort of men by the simple process of putting them in uniform and the 369th. infantry of colored troops that were burgaded with the French were the first to plant the American flag on the firing line. "German culture in Belgium is a tale so horrible that none have as vet dared but utter fragments of it. Let Littel you that the wrongs of Belgium pale beside the bestial atrocities pretised upon defensless Negroes in the southland; and why do I say pale? The wrongs of Belgium were inflicted by the mailed fist of humanity, but the wrongs inflicted upon us as a race are inflicted as one citizen upon another. "However we have fought for a front seat in the brotherhood of men and while the white man fought to bring the Kaiser to his knees, we fought by their side and under their commands to stand the Negro on his feet." "And now that the work of the army lies hidden beyond the horizon, we are at liberty to pursue the greater work of living, of molding life to a greater perfection of enjoyment." Maver Toomey welcomed the boys home two years after he had bid them God speed on their way to France to face an unknown fate. He expressed his delight in the fact that no Colored boys from Fresno had been scratched or wounded. LOUIS W. HANEY Rest in peace dear husband.

Jones, Atty-at-Law, 412 Germain Bldg.; Phone Pico 297 Sunday, October 26th brought to a close one of the most successful conferences ever held by the Zion Church in this city. The five day's session was held in the Independent Church, with Bishop W. Kyle presiding. The following appointments SERMONETTE THE BIBLE There are young men and women today who leave their homes to make a start in life, and never even think of letting God lead them, nor reading God's Holy word. If you were to converse with them they would be able to tell you all about the trashy novels they spend their money for, and waste their time in reading. That is why we hardly find more serious minded men and women in this age. It ought be everyone's delight to read the bible and be able at any time, when called upon for a bible reference to give it, instead of fumbling around and turning the leaves, like we see a good many so-called Christians doing. To my mind this world is a school in which we study to perfect that heavenly life which each and everyone will get in that day. When war is declared Uncle Sam calls for the very best men for the army and that is not all, they send them to the camps to be properly trained so that they may be able to meet the enemy without fear. Therefore the bible is the Christian's weapon and we us it for good or evil. If Uncle Sam is so particular about taking the best men for the army; how much more should we strive day by day to give God clean bodies, clean minds, and render God our young lives. During the days of slavery a woman was put up for auction and the auctioneer said, "How much will you offer for this woman?" Everyone offered but still the price did not suit the auctioneer. Presently a man came forward and put down the money they wanted. The poor woman smiled on her new master, for something in her heart told her that he was kind, gentle and sympathetic. The owner wrote on a piece of paper, "Free, Free, Free" and gave it to the woman and started for his home. On looking back he saw this woman following him, and he being surprised said, "Woman why are you following me? I bought you and have set you free." "I know," replied the woman with tears in her eyes, "you bought me and set me free. I can never repay you so let me follow you and work for you, so that I may be able to look at you until I die." OK, if we could only, be like that woman was, following Jesus and keeping our eyes on Him, then we never need fear for whatever comes we could smile through our tears and say, "Our Master bends what is best" though we see darkly through a glass we all will understand it better by and by. "Mamma," said little Emily to her mother, who was earnestly reading her bible, "why do you read the Bible so often?" "I need to do so, my child; why do you drink milk and eat bread so often?" But, mamma, you know quite well I must have food, otherwise I shall die." "What has God given us besides the body?" "Our souls, Mamma." "You see, my child, I have felt that my soul even more than my body must have food; where shall I fid that food?" "Ah! now I understand, we must read the Bible daily to find food for our souls, just as we eat and drink to sustain our bodies." "Quite right, and if tomorrow, you went without breakfast and again at dinner could not eat, what must I think?" "That I was sick." "Yes, truly, ad this is a sign of our soul sickness, when we neglect to study God's word; other books can nourish our minds, but only God's word can feed our souls." Let me say in conclusion be careful what books we read or let our young children read because when we store up in our mind cells those harmful thoughts, we can't erase them, and they live with us to be a curse to our graves. Listen what Rev John Angell James says about bad books. "Twenty-five years ago, when I was a boy, a schoolfellow gave me an infamous book, which he lent me for only fifteen minutes. At the end of that time it was returned to him, but that book has haunted me like a spectre ever since. I have asked God on my knees to obliterate that book from my mind, but I believe that I shall carry down with me to the grave the spiritual damage I received during those fifteen minutes. Let us therefore read our Bibles as they are golden leaves between the pages. The thought that should sink deep in our mnids is, we cannot read bad books and expect to have pure thoughts and be the same before reading them. were made for the coming year for Southern California: Presiding Elder, Rev.
